No. 11.
Mr. Day,
IT s an acknowledged fa£l
that there are rapid 11 rides tak
ing not only at home but abroad,
towards depriving us of cur con
(litutional privileges.
Pofleffi'm of a valuable e (late,
once loft, poduceth doub's of
its being regained uninjured, and
ten to one if ever. We are in
the aftual poffeffion of an im
men!e efluc : it confifleth of
nothing lefs than all the liberties
of free and independent citizens-;
and if we give up one Angle
pdvihge, by the fame rule we
may give a fe< ond and a third,
and fo on until we Jo'c fight of
tn*t unbounded fortune, which
our fore fathers defired to fee,
our fathers and brothers fought
or and we are the owners of,
( htedom ) —lt rs of more value
t an die riches of the eafl, the
cautios ot the weft, the gran
tor of the north, or the more
luxuriant jeffamine of the fouth.
we give way to thofe diaboli-
tneafures which have been
leuoudy attempted, or by any
P ir °f ourconduft countenance
pern, (.or the «uions of men
y ak (tronger chan their words)
‘[ W)u have been better for us
! t we had never been born,
|hin to live, to wear the yoke of
‘* ver V an d di (grace, and lave
*■ c mortification to fee our ofF
p .ng girted round wkh thofe
1? ‘ arnons chains of tyranny and ‘
'■PP-cflion, which are formed in
" , T (nv out of the ariflocratical
n monarchical cabinets: for
nit would the who’e world be
J v/e were bond men ?
, ** 3 Morions faft, thaf
are many of our country
who fought for liberty,
-* 3t the gf the war, took
I a dccid d part, foi the cflablifo- j
incut of c n equal government,
[who have changed thtir p:inci-|
;pie5 # and are flrong advocates;
j lor that veiykindof government
I which they fought againo
(flrangeconduddindeed ) T here
are others who were not inf)ru
j mental in procuring of a free
‘government in league with the
old hinds. It is reduced to a
moral certainty, that thofe turn
about charadeis, are led and!
influenced by a fet of wicked,
defignir.g hirelings, fent over
,and planted down among us by
the Britifh government ; forne
of them appear in one light and
forne in another. Thofe that
appear in an official charafttV,
produce their commiflion ro’e,
| figned by his majefly, and wrote
! in a flyle fafitlioned by no other
government than one , the funda
'mental principles of which, an
tyranny, injuflice and debauch
ery : yet thofe Britifh
have out of the contingent fund
of England, Arnoldlifed too
many of our people, in whom
we once placed the highell con
fidence. In what light oughi
we to view, thofe bought up
beings ? I anfwer, in that veiy
point of view, which the nobi
lity ot England do general Ar
no d, alchough die general r*nks
as a nobleman, The genuine
nobility, fay. we admire the
trea : on, but defpife the trai
tor
Thofe other white livered
creatures who do not appear
under the mafic of a commiflion,
travel through our country with
their fad He bags fluffed full ot
fecret commiffions, letters of re
commendation, and aflu anceof
preferment upon certain terms,
like many of our patched up
gentry have travelled over the
End hills for fcveral years pad,
with their (addle bags fuil of lit
tle, walnut and hickoiy twigs or
Twitches. j
Notwithfbndirrg thofe men|
who have done all in their p iw
er to fell our country, and have j
virtually forfeited all paternal
fecurity, and run counter to all j
principles have
the cffronteiy to call
federalifls, and claim that pro-i
teftion from our conftitution j
whLh it adminiflcrs to repuo
licans.
In my be fl judgment, they
are no more entitled to the pro-1
teclion of cither the federal or
flate coaflitution, than a rattlc
fnake is, to have his abode in
one of our family rooms, among j
our little children.
The funding fyflem, flock
and land jobbing fpeculators
have been zealoufly engaged in
and for the depreciation of our
tights and dignity for many years
pad. Witnefs, that gulf into
which they had all but plunged
our libci ties ; and the inalienable
rights of poltciity, in the years
1791 and 1/95* by their pre*
tended fale of thz Weflern
lands. There was a fixed p:in»
>
ciplc for the poor republicans,*
and their ofFpring to be the
perpetual hewers of wood, and
drawers of water, for the in
tended lords of that new world.
When the (ophiftry and corrup
tion of that nefarious tran(a£l:on
was undei flood, the people were
iou(cd into a lively indignation
at farh a diabolical deprivation
of their rights and liberties, and
for the relloratio i tlieteof on that
occafion, w f e are under no
finall obligations to the lea ned
and patriotic pen of a Sicilius.
Aifo to a certain g nrleman of
hand fome talents, for his elegant
and well adapted feunon, deli
vered to the legiflature, in the
early pait of the feflion of 1796.
And by taking of an impartial
rctrofpe6live and prefeht view
of men and mrafurcs, there
cannot remain a (ingle doubt of
the rertrinty of a violent rhirfl,'
lodged in 1 he bofom of ourcoun- ;
0 . 1
try. to rob us of our liberties,
and many of our neighbors con
cerned in the feheme.
It will therefore he fflTentially
necellai yto guard wcl our rights,
and keep a jealous eye over thofe
wolves drclfcd in (beep's cloath
ing.
To complete tlic fcenc of our
political misfortunes, one of the
mod ruinous and deflruftivc
ideas that ever exißed among
cn ightened people have crept
in among us, and that i>, we
mult all he either Bntilb or
French politicians, and th»t
amounts to nothing more nor
lefs than, that we mu(l take an
active part for the one, or the
oih*r. The tmth is, that we
have nothing to do with either;
for white we arc attenning their
difputes we arc r egicftmg our
own concerns. Like a planter
in (he fpring of the year, who
attends fh ft to-one neighbour's
ploughing and planting and
then to another, until it is too
late for to plant for h ni r eT ;
and in the fall of the year when
others arc gathering and houfing
I their crop, he has none to g*
(her. What is he to do? He
has no moncr—if the ror is
not corrcfted in time, wc will
be in a fimilar fituation as to ou r
politics ; one part for England,
and the other for tin French,
and none for America.
