A’ E PUB LI (JA ft. savannah, march iSc6. -. i riS'iT .vs*- •- • n >♦•►■ 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. COMMON .'CATION.

Mr. Clarkfim, Holcombe, Clay or Blackburn, who flays at Mr. Millin’* near Spring.hill. The community are perhaps Efficiently apprized that Mr. Blackburn is in poflHTion of fatisundlory tcft'.monia’u that his benevolent and zeal ous efforts ffir the promotion of this le nunary have been much approved by liighlv rrfytftable chai adders in oitr go vernment, and of the clergy of different denominations. An ex ra Chiilicothe paper of the 19th ult. contains the following;— 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 fufficient to bring them to sense of their danger, &c. &c. before much injury is fu flamed Kentucky Gazette. 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.
