He seems to think these who lend, worse than the knaves who cheat them {; compares him who owes money to the bank, to man with the highway mans pistol at his breast; and assures the women, that, if they will stand by him, ho cares for no mans opin- ion, good or bad.

Anti-Tarif.-The good people of Georgia have it seems determined to carry their pa triotic and ant.tariff spirit to all lengths. The Legislature of this state at its last session, recommended to the oficsrs of the Militia to equip themselves ih Anti Tariff or home e-spun Uniform. Improving upon the hint, some of the anti-tariff privates, have furnished them- selves with muskets made entirely, with the exception of a leather lock, of light wood. such as poplar. pine, Sc. They are labelled :" Ahti- 1Gr0 Fire Locks." Probably the brave heroes of the South intend with these formidable weapons to enforce their threat of disunion.-Am. MdRvtdctsrer.

FELLOW CITIZENS
Fifty-tree years have this day elapsed, since the
noble and daring spirits who framed and put their
seals to the glorious declaration of rights which you
have Just heard read in continental congress as
sembled, and by their unanimous vote, threw Oft the
yoke of allegiance to the Mother country and resol-
Wing to be Free proclaimed the eternal truths contain
ed in that document to an astonshed and admiring
world.
The causes which led to this separaton,--the pri-
yaons and suffering grievances and expressions, by
which they were driven to this act of DESPERATION
to many it then seemed, ably set forth and pa
thecally detailed in the declaration ITSELF that 1t
would be act Of supererogaton In me to dwell up
On them.
To memorials stating their causes of complaint. to
repeated and most respectful petitions for redress, and
to the most aeconate appeals to their sovereign and
Kindred his more immediate subjects, deaf ear was
turned, by the infatuated monarch and his weak and
obstinate ministers, who instead of making such con-
cessons might then have alayed the ferment, pro-
duced by their arbitrary proceedings, unwsey but
most happily for us, determined to maintain their
serted authority the colonies, and, if necessary
to enforce obedience and submission to their unlaw
full acts.
Parliament, therefore, regardless of consequences
and relying with blind confidence on their Wanted
strength and arrogant assumption of power, continu
ed taking from the liberties and adding more to
the burdens of the people.
Driven, at length, to extremities--their patience
exhausted and their Indignation reused, by the numer
GUS and repeated insults, injuries and aggressions
heaped upon them by the mother country the coonists
resolved upon separation, at once and forever.
With this view congress was elected composed
of those chosen patriots, whose affixed to
that paper which will be an imperishable monument
Of glory to the land which it originated After the
most cautious deliberation and mature reflection a
ter duly weighing their own limited resources and the
fearful odds against which they would have to contend
conscious of the rectitude of theE Intentions and
the virtue of their cause, and in full reliance the
and of Omnipotencethey chose the only alternative
left for freemen
And if we compare the present prosperous cireum-
stances by which we are surrounded---the present
furnishing condition of our beloved country with
what it at the period alluded to, at once
made sensible of the weight of obligation un
der to them, and of the debt Of gratitude and
ration due to their memories and feel that we can
not be too thankful to the Almighty Dispenser of all
good for the manifold blessings in the I'M
disputed possession ofThen alarm and agitation per-
Vaded the land the people were divided among them
