MUCH h?s beta fcid refpediny
the MURDER of John Pierce, a chi
zen of the United States, near the har
borof N. York, by a ball from thcißritifh
ship of war Leander—the conduit ot
the commantler en this occasion is
hollile to the interelt of this country- **
he violated the Laws of Nations—he
wilfully murdered a citizen of the U. S- —
that it was wilful there remains no
doubt—that it w 9 an inl'ult upon the
American Flag, wejirefume there is no
one hardy enough to deny—that our
government will immediately demand!
reparation, is the hope of every Repub”
Jican. Have tliefe ‘ despots of the ocean ’
authority to commit such depredations
upon cur commerce —even within the
mouths of our harbors ? Will Ameri
cans be idle fpeftaters on this occa
fion ? Will they fee their veiLls cap- j
t ired, their cit'z ns murdered, and treat
th: uthor of such barbarous afts with
lenity ? No, Americans, arouse from
your {lumbers, and protest that Inde
pendence, which was obtained by the
blood of your fathers. We admire the
public spirit which has been visible on
this occalioa in the city of New-York ;
but, when we fee a certain class of men
make it an'.wer an electioneering pur
pose, we are fearful their mighty parade
was but an out-fide show.
“ The following is the reply of the
secretary of the treasury, in anfwerto the
Tefolutiou o the House of Representa
tives, refpefting Mr J {Lrfon’s having
attempted unconfiiiuiio.lally to draw
money from that department. The re
lolution was introduced by Air. Jackion,
from what motive we know not: Ran
dolph probably insinuated famething of
tile loud ;
7 .enj'i'-y Department, / Ipti l 15, 1805
Sir,
“ In a-rlwer to t’ e request contain
ed in the resolution of the House of Re
presentatives of the B.h infl. I have the
honor reipedtiully to ttsie that rt no ap- ’
plica-ion lias been made to draw money 1
t.om the Treafu y fir the purchase of j
tiie Fioridas before an appropriation made \
by law for that purpose.”
“ T e circumitances, which may have J
pr iduceo an imprdTton thn: fucli an ap.
pheation had been made, being uncon
Jicdtci with any matter pertaining to the
duucs ot tiie office of secretary of the
treaiury, are nut presumed to come with
in the lcope of the information required
from this department by tlie House.
“ 1 have tiie honor to be,
With great refpedt,
Sir, your obedient fcrvan%
ALBERT GALLATIN.
“ The honorable,
the Speaker of the
House of Ileprcfcntative*.”
The fore going reply of Mr. Galla
tin, completely exculpates the Prcfident
of the United States from all the flun
deroU3 affertiuns which have been ad
vanced, by the enemies of freedom, on
this fubjeCt. We have heard men un
biufhingly affiert, that Mr. Jeflerfon had !
drawn from the reafury of the United
States TWO MILLIONS OF DOL-
L I RS, as a tribute to Bonaparte ; at!
the f.me time they wire cot.fcious tiiat j
this sum was app-opriateij by the:
Cor.g-cfs of the United States, for the j
express purpjfeof purchasing the Fieri
da,. Can such men read the above, and
call thcmfclves supporters of truth and
the laws of their country ? If the perils 1
of ’76 should again hover arour.d us,
could confidence be placed in fuc'n men r
Would they, like the heroes of that day,
brave the hour that tried nerds su!s ? i
To vilify the rulers of the government,
appears to be their favorite topic- Bad
indeed is the cause which requires faife
hoods to support it-.-such, it seems, is
the cause of Fede alifin.
