Hat ford Mu>cury. Connecticut federaliim is like a manu facturing town in a great country; it makes every thing witnin itleif, has a great deal to export and nothing to im port ; hence has hitherto k. pt the ba lance in it* favor. Whenever a ltory is necessary for proxies, it is at once made, not from auy raw tnaierial, but trom no thing ; iu this the feceralilt differ from other manutadtures, who mult always have something to make lomcttnng of. At one time a French fleet has come to demand 6 millions of dollars ; at an other tile Spaniards are upon us, and our vessels are alt in .he dry docks—or l'o pery is about to be eitab i(h;a 111 Louis iana—or the crew ot the lhip Ocean has fcten mi.ffacrtd, or Bonaparte is dead and all hi* army surrendered—or ih. faiarits of public eific-rs are raffed, or lome democrat has ulurpcd the place of Luci fer, or lome federal lawyer has become a real chrfftian. There is a great deal of reeling, cross twitting, and throwing of the Ihuttle by theft federal manufactures jutt before proxies ; but as the whole is made of no thing. it comes to nothing soon after proxies, so that it cannot be said of these manufactures, this work lies a great while in their hands.

When he talked about energetic gov ernment or religion, we Ihould under (tand him. If he wanted to oppress the people with war* or taxes, lie would vhuie about it, pretend great friendfh p for the people and appoint fad days; hut the imperial Alexander would go fir-fight forward.
