In the cure of every malady, whether moral,

trace it to the source from which it first origi-
mated. Has faction then spread its baleful
influence in. has the description ofthe Argus
ever been perfectly applicable to our own

who gave it birth? Who were the authors
Who were the fomenters of these unhappy
divisions Were they federalists Or were

our publick history, since the adoption OF the

Instead, therefore, of continually descant
ing on federal opposition, certain writers
would do themselves infinitely more credit,
and their party greater service, by endeay-
curing to throw the mantle ofobliyin over, to
erase from our history, to blot out from our
very recollection, the remembrance OF those
measures which called il forth, and which are
standing monument of federal wisdom, and
anti-federal weakness attestng TO the excel
