NEW YOR K, July 2. Tromthe Republican Wat h Tower The confidence which citi zens of America frequently re pofe in thole men whoarc deno minated great, is produ&ive of effe&s injurious to liberty. In the commencement of the revo lution, John Adams, and others who are now his intimate fedc lal fiiends, faid and wrote many things, and fubferibed to the principles of many papers de monllmive no doubt of their attachment to the caufe in which the country was engaged. It is this circumflancc which, at the prefect moment, blinds thf* eyes of many—they cither cannot or will not difcover the change of fentiments and conduct in thefe high-toned federalills, They alfertihar they were once great and good—that they advocated the principles of ihi icvolution, and that Tome of them fupport ed die declaration of indepen dence. All this is true; but fads are ftubborn things. The declaration of independence contains political principles of a genuine republican complex kin ; the condu£V of lome of the fubferibers to this famous inftru ment has fanftioned mcafures which ovetturn its principles. Tnis fhould lead the citizens of the United States to fix their at tention upon thofc men who have not enumerated their po litical opinions upon thofe men whofe republican firmnefs and uniformity have not been quef tioned for twenty-five yeais- There is no anti-republic?an, no ariftocrat or monarchifl in the United States, that can bring any charge of this kind agamft Thomas JefFerlon-—he wrote the declaration of independence —he believed at that time the principles contained in it to be true—he believes them to be true dill, and this is the abomi nable crime which renders him, in the view of fedcralifm unwor thy of becoming the chief ma giflrate of a republican people. The prefident of the United States has puffed by this city, and no parade has been made upon the occaGirtl. GrCat men no doubt have the right as well as all others in 4 free country, of palling eithei through the centre of a city dr one fide of it; but when ori former occa fions of a fimilaf kiddj vafl ref pe6l has been (hewn, and much parade exhibited, it naturally occurs to the iefle£img miud, whence this worideiful change ? ! he reafons are political, like thof* which c tifed the di(million of Mr Pickering from office, or to fpeak m »ie corretlly, un like thofe which proiUced thu event,; The fedrralilts fay the conduct of the prefident in this cafe was the effetl of difference of political Opinion with M . Pickeiing. I his however is mofl p obably intended as a de lation ; but in the prclent cale of the p elident palling this city, without any pomp or parade, thsre can be n i deception— he late clc&ion iolves the difficul ty- BALTIMORE, July 4. Exultation ! Exultation I all was glorious Exultation .
