THE following is taken from the
Witticfs, an excellent paper printed at
JLitchfi"*i,(Con.) Although the remarks
of the editor are far superior to any thing
we could fay on the fuhj ct, we cannot
forbear to glance at the allertiona of Mr.
Eton with a ferutinous eye. While
we cordially despise his principles we
fmcerely lament the dillicllcd condition
of his /railing group. ‘I her may fniile,
hut if they do, it mud be from a dread to
d.fcoverthe leatt difconte-it at their fate,
or from want of knowledge to know
-jrhat happinef*, (liberty) is. If we are
to enjoy no liberty except fuck as is un
ierftcod in that happy i/lmd, (England)
tray G >i take from us luch liberty, and
deprive us of such underbidding : It we
are to be infit meet by th. lame rrteana the
Ruffian peasantry are, may w.- o ver he
j-.r.iTeffd of any information (evil or good.)
We should indeed, and so would every
friend to a free and independent govern
ment ffiudder at the ilea, I 1 fcderalnls,
Xorics, or any other set of people, can be
contented with a Rye Eijcuiildwater gov
trnment—ifthey can'uc happy to know no
lawbutthenod ofa tyrant,what mutt they
Lein America, whe re equal liberty is en
joyed by all—where the rich and the
t-oor are equally fr e—where laws are
not made or executed it the diredt or
indsreft command of a monarch or un
principled despot.
CLriour RYf-BISCUIT Government.
In W. Eton’s dcvelopement of the
political system of the lute empress of
Raffia we read, ‘ that her means are in.
* calculablv vril and that her will can
* employ them without opposition;
4 —a peasantry looking on the monarch
‘as a divitiiy, and filling him God of
* the earth, ignorant of any government
‘ hut a despotic fcep t re and of my con
-4 dition but vaffehigc, happily deprive^
* of all means at (evd) information; a
* soldiery obcd.ent to dii- ipiiiie, UriLri.-ig
* privation and hardship, contented with
* Rye Bitcieil and waver ! There is no
* law but the e\prcfs t jmmanci of the
4 monarch.’
After luch a charming pi&ure of
foeiety, Mr. Eaton proceeds to f:;y that
4 there is a fmtie diffufed over ttie face
* of the whole country.’ * I appeal,
4 f tys he, to all, who have ti • led in
4 Russia, whether they ever taw more
* hilarity in any part of the world -ww
* and I affi rm, that the whole mass of :
4 people appear to be more happy (and
4 it is a hard thing to make a’man
4 laugh when he is not pjeafed) than
* sn y I have seen in three parts of the
* globe.’
He adds, ‘there is no medium in lib
erty. To be happy, a nation mull be
* pcrfe&ly free or perfectly passive.
* A little liberty is a dangerous thing,
‘ btcaufe it is not understood. Liberty
4 has been no where understood but in
4 this happy iflaud (England)—Our
4 government is the glory of human un
-4 dei Sanding,’ &c.
At what a va(l remove are the United
State* from luch a happy government,
fp eading smiles over the whole country >
11 old Catharine could have been pre
ferred to this time, and we could have
imported her imperial majesty aad her
fi~:creign will into this country, how
rapidly might we have approached to
that perjefl/y passive (late of ioeiety, in
which the children laugh to fee their
fathers hung by hooks over rivers, ex
Firing in torments, or in which mothers
Hugh to fee tneir font dragged to the
hid of /laughter ! What a wretch
mull Bonaparte be te diilurb such a
happy calm of elefpotif'n.
I'ederaiifts are distressed when they
hear that the perfectly free, passive,
laughing empire of ryk-biscuit is iri
danger. Let Bonaparte be oefeated
•ml let the emperor Alexandria, after
having a few dozen horses /hot under
him, and alter fighting like a mad hero,
iix hours at a diflanct of three leagues
from the range of ffiet, return to his
laughing slaves and tell the jovial fathers
and mothers how many thousands of
their Rye-Biscuit cater* have had the
honor to die for his glory.—Then fed
cralilm may lift up its head ; for as far
as we underfland ii, fedtralifm is no
more or less than a system (if finking the
common people to a petfeMy passive con.
diiiou, ftiDjrct to the uncontrolled Will
of the nobles of nature ; in short, fed
eralifm is a system of aye-nifeuu.
Happily tor the friends of republic
ari.ftn, only one twelfth oi the people of
tne Li. is- are in favor of itye-Bifcuit
governments.

An ex ra Chiilicothe paper of the

Ihe geyernor has this day received
an expreft from major Moore in the
upper set ft ments of Mad river, enclos
ing depofifions taken before judge
M'Culloc t, one of the associate judges
for Champaign county —bating that the
Shawney Indians are embodied at Stcney
creek, at IVlitte river, and are in council
near Greenville ; that runners are sent
Iror, place to place, throughout the
naui.ii : that their tomahawks are paint
ed and feathered ; and that it is dreaded
arid expedited they are about to strike the
war post in their council Erotji which,
and other circum fiances, it is feared
they are bent to make war. A
fruall settlement on Stony creek, confin
ing of eight lamilles, have been obliged
to arm, and have all itmoved into Mad
river, a diltance of ten miles.
We hope and 11 uti luch measures rill
be pursued, a* will quiet the minds ofl.be
people in. that quarter, if the alarm should
be occasioned either by improper inter
courfc or artitkially excited ; or if real,
‘hat a check will he givpi to the Indians

danger, &c. &c. before much injury is

The proclamation which the emperor
Napoleon addrtffed to his army, after the
celebrated battle of the 2d. December :
PROCLAMATION
” Soldiers—l am fatisfted with you,
m the. battle of Aullerlitz, you have jus
tified what I expedted from your intre
pidity - You have covered yourselves
with eternal glory. An army of 100,
cco men, which was commanded by the
Emperors of Russia and Austria, has
been, in less than four hours, either cut
off or dispersed. What escaped your
A ord* threw themselves into the lakes.
)■ orty iiand of colours, the ftartdard of
the Ruffian imperial guard, 120 pieces
of cannon, twenty Generals, above qo.
000 prisoners, are the fruits of this ever
memorable battle.
“ That infantry, so celebrated and su
perior to you in numbers, have proved
unable to refill your charge, and hence
forth, you have no rivals to fear.
“ I bus, inlefs than two months, the
tl ird coalition is conquered and dissolv
ed P-act cannot be at a great d!fiance;
but, as 1 prounded to my people before
crossing the Rhine, I will conclude it on
ly upon terms co- fiftent with my pledge
and which /hall secure not only the in
demnification, but the reward of the al
lies.
“ Soidiere ! When the French people
placed the Imperial Crown upon my
head, i trulled in you to enable me to
maintain it in that high fplendour of
glory which alone could give it value in
my estimation, but of that moment our
enemies entertained thedefign to tarrifh
and degrade it ; and the Iron Crown
which was gained by the blood of so
many Frenchmeo, would they have com
pelled me to place on the bead of my
bitterefl foe ; an extravagant and foolifh
proposal which you have brought to
nought as the anniverfar y of your Em
peror’s Coronation. You have taught
them that it is ealier for them to defy
and threaten than tofubdue us.
“ Soldiers ! When every thing ne
ctffary to the fecuri'y, the happiness and
profperiry of our country, has been at
cl ievid, wi.l F return you ir;y thanks in
France. Fhen will be the objeiis
of my tendered care. My people will
receive you with rapture and joy. To
lay to me ; ‘I was in the battle of
Aufteriitz’ ; will be enough to aulliorife
the reply, ‘ that is a brave man.’
“NAPOLEON.
“ Head quarters ct Aujlerlitz, Dec. 2,
1805.”
Avery idle, fiily habit has
iome time prevailed among the
federal printers of this and other
(lares, of inceting at certain
phraleSj used by Mr- Jefferfonin
his pjblic communications ; by
quoting them in a burlesque
manner on all fubjedts, even in
advertisements. “ Correct the
procedure'' —“ the harmony of so
cial intercourse" — and many other
expreffims have been rung in all
the changes of burlesque for fe
verai years. His latl annual
mefiage has furnifhed new food
for the wiseacres. “ Trying which
can dc the other the inoft harm,”
is cue expreflion now us and for
heir mirth, anti filtering quoted
at every opportunity, Os the
d'c ,: c>” or rhe sentiments no com
plaint is or ran be made ; bur
they must b-’ peeking ar lorre
chirig; they must throw their
dirt at Mr. Jefierfon ; that im
potent malice, and waspish fee
ble spire, which tortures them,
must bred’ nut; and in this shape
it is rnoft apt to fltew itlelf in
weak and vulgar minds. Men
of talents and enterptize, unre
rtra'ned by principle, may op
pose an adininiltrafion with bold
invtftives and ingenious fabri
cations ; but men of smaller in.
idled though equally malicious,
equally deitirute of principle,
mufl move in a humbler sphere ;
they must fnecr and mutter at
the virtues they cinnor imitate,
at the it ra lures they cat not un
derhand.
What * curious figure would
an epitome of federal scribbling
againfh Mr, JefFerfon, exhibit to
pofteiity a century hence.
None are more corfpimous
for this liabit that a near neigh
bor of ours. livei y thing he lias
attempted to write has been in
terlated with sneering quotations
bom Mr, Jefferlon; he cannot
even compliment a fincorm-mai’
ter wichouL lneenng at the Prefi
dent, But be is rather to be
pirteu than blamed. Ile has go
an incurable notion that he can
write. And finee he will w.Ate
paper and ink, we had rather he
would supply the wretched ller
ility of his brain with any mans
ideas, than (hock every delicate
mind with the uwningled efi'u
fio.is of his own folly and mad
ness.
