At a tavern in Market-Hiect a few days ago, a prrfon who calls himfe 1 f a major, was blattering very loudly on peace and moderation—-among a variety of meek ejaculations ae did not forget to curfe the Vicc-Prefident, and Mr, Dallas, and Mr. Gallatin, and the Edi tor of the Aurora—he widied rtiiy to have a guillotine erected for the four, and very honorably declared, that he would give an hundred dollars lo be your Executjpner; as you have given me the name of the Morristown Hero, I g!V e you mine; and am ready to produce several other refpeaable witnef. j . heard the fame declara-' *ioas.

I well know the common p’ace top c of the excellen cy of our con(li:u*ion aud laws—or the purity and refponflbility of onr rulers— and of the meteafing profperi y of our connry. I well know alfo the intox icating eiTefls «f vai try and pr<jadi< e, as well as the foporific du'lncfa of igno isnce and floth ; that I fliall probably j fiom the former receive nothing hut contempt ; and fcy the latter, he tcimcd a rommou d.fturber and alarm ft. ffuflum , ac tenneem propositi virum , Non civium ardor prava juhenttum Non \ultus injl antis tyranni t Mentt quatit sofida t &c. I dfimnd the candid alfen'ion of my fePow-ci izens for two nafons : as ihelc remarks arc written by one of felves, a native American, one who is proud ai d tenacious of his birthright ; and from the importance and iulercftmg nature of ;he lt is n«t necef fary to mention to you, fir, that if :he ea<!y growth of ambition and the fi ft approa :hes of tyranny are not wa ched and checked, it will be in vain lo op pofc the ttrength of the r advanced ma ur ty. To form a clear and accurate view of the prt&nr jurfturc in the iffairs of the United States, let m enter into a cand d and d fpf flUrate lamination. The firil circrmrtance that ftr kes our attent on is the want of union, and the violent pa ty fpirit that prevails. This fpirit ia diltin guiftrd by extraordinary rancour and viru ence. It is not mere’y a of opinion ; it ii not a falutarv, raiii a tiag competition of talents ; but it is d vio’ent, exterminating perfecu ion. I his fpir>l has been too mush foft:rcd and p ornotid by men of inducnce a d lt is lime that it fuhfide ; and give p’aceto a (pint of moderation. From the former principle, the greateft evils are to be apprel.endid I can didly declare, lha: from it I finally the total deftnrflton of our rights and 1 htrtivs Already have appear'd feme effor'B to take advantage of our difuaron. ■ r l'be mini ns of r. yalty and defpotlfm , are either fo extremely weak or fo per versely wicked, as never to diliioguifh between the evi's arifing from the m f lakes or excefs of a good principle, and its 1 mited, legitimate opera ion The j errors of parry, and the accidental ex—| cedes of popular zeal, are by them ad duced aa irrefragable arguments agai&ft republican governments. ' i j In this country onfortuna f e!y exift I ■ two parties. The one ia too much at tached to French, and the other to Cri tifh p litics. We ought to confine our concern and our attachments to our own country. Nature has ir.fulated i us from the European continent ; and i w fdom directs us lo keep ourfe ves free i , from European cabals and litigations. ! At a lare town meeting in the fta:e of Manachufetts, the chairman requefted Ihofc prelent, who were friends to Trance, to retire to one fide; and thofe who wcee friends to Great-Britain, to retire to the other. The whole mcet-j ing divided to either fide, w.th the ex- j ception of the chairman and a few old meo - The chairman then fold them, that there was nearly an equal number for France and Greal-Britam : bui who j were lo defend America ?—None but few aged and infirm men. This is j too true a picture of the prefcot hate of partite. j Standing armies have always Ucn I thought by wife and moderate men, to j , be dellru<ff ve to republican governments. Notwithftanding the inconfertiblc truth and importance cf this max m, it haa j been thought proper to organ zc fuch au army. Already hive we (en and experienced i f s evils. Already have wc ; fi-cn ittcmp'B made by the fu di ly to j influence by force the public opinion, j Not to mention the pernicious tfi ds of the prtlent cftablifiiment, n adding to Ihc ferocity of patty fp rit; ia creating ! a horde of u]’e, proH’ga'e chfcraften, I who will be the drone? of foe e-'y » ror j lie cn rmoug expencc* incurred by it to I the United S a'es.

A war from which we fhail probably experience me dangers of foreign invafiun, with (he accumulated calamities of civil difTenlion and cjvil bloodfhcd. A war in fine with a people, 1 who at Itatl cail themf-'vjs republicans; while we refort to an od oua al'iancc with the k ngo and d fpota of ti c world. Fiuai vhc iauer c mOdcration, the tn ft frightful dangers thrra'en. It is tread ing over a p ecip’ce of the ntoft ifre |tiirvable diftrefs and unfathomable mi fery. It would be unchaiiub'e, fir, to doubt the integrity cf our immaculate Executive, and the higheft preemption to impeach the fuptemc wifdom of the councils of the nai on. I (ha!), however, | tta‘e a facf with very little comment If wc examine the hirtory of different 'nations, we fhail find this principle ge ocrally true ; that monarchical and def p >t'C g vernmeuts have preferred the a-liince and fr cruJfhip of monarchies and d fpot-fms; and that republics luvc n ver courted their friendfhip, but on their decline and previous ro their final dciirudfion. If is an eftab'ifhed maxim with lomc politicians, that one of the I aiolf certain methods of w 'akening and eradicating republican principles ; n a free j cc-un :r r is lo proJu:c a rupture or op pefi ion of intertills with republican go vernments, and to c*m*-ni the doled union with monarchies. The pr nciplc is founded in nature and deep polcy. Friendfhip wi h nations, it foroewhat like friend fh p bftvvc-n indiv dua e From a fiicndlhip for their perform, wc j giaduaily lofc ail av.ifion for their vices J and def da, and acquire an habitual propenfity to adopt their fentimen s, and imi.aie their manners. By tins means a free people may lofc ail anti pathy to the principles of monarchies ; and fiua ly fubmit without a ftrugglc to the yoke of defpoc frn.
