MUCH has been said, and written ibont the national debt of Great-Britain- It appears, from a statement presented by he Chancellor of the Exchequer to the Parliament of that country tri theyrar 1804, that the public funded debt at that im-, amounted to the enormous Cum of 583,008,978 pounds ! ! 192 pounds are applied annually, in con formity with several acts ot Parliament to the reduction of that debt. It appears also, that the interest allowable upon the fnm due by England, and the charges attendant on the finking fund, amounted, in the year 180410 24,110,475 pounds, a fnm nearly four times as much as that, which is applied to the reduction of the riTitiniud debt. So the molt simple arith metician can, with great facility tiifeover, that agreeable to the iiatemenM, exhibit ed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, 1 lie English debt will inereafe, adva-lorem | 18,coo coo, of pounds annually. It) mult, therefore, be wholly impoflihle for any man, who poffeftcs a moderate (hare j -it und( rltanding, and who is accuflomed to hold himftlf within the er, lines of truth, to alftrt, that he confdentiouily believes, the d-bt of Great-Britain will ever be faithfully, and equitably dileharg e'l The Mini'll, rs of England h-ve rci -1 dered her corrupt. They have adopt ed the borrowing fyllem, and received J loans, without enquiring how the lenders j were to be re i.nburfed, and in line with loin ans- intention to re-imbuife them. Ever iince the throne oi the youthful , Edgar was usurped by the ambitious f|jr and, corrupt men have fuceeeded corrupt men in ruling Great Britain— The p-elent King of England is a lnrm lefs and irioffenfive creature —be wears the trappings, and enligns of royalty ; but in every other light as an offiial character he is a non-entity, cr at b< It a (peaking automaton When, how ever, we lay that England is a faithlcfs and depraved country, we do not mean to affirm that all Englilhmen are failhleG, and depiavcd. It is t e mini sters of that nation, who occifion her corruption, and while we believe her to be dcltr.ute altogether of probity, and isith as a Aj*e, we irr.y also believe, that a portion of her fubjits, ar individuals, pc.llcls thole v rtues in an eminent degree. I think it 18, now, wry wt/l eftablilhed that England is a coirupt nation. Tuen, the government of ev.iy corrupt nation mull be oppitffive; tor every nun, upon whom the situ ot corruption operate, is, (in proportion to the extvnL of tueh corruption) more or lets the vx'/.m ot opprefflon. Ncrti we a further i of the iullerings, under which the Engl IE multitude groan, than then daily emi grations acrols the Atlantia affords us f If so, let the laws of England, thtm letves, demonllrate the truth ; let us ap peal to Brltifh taxation, tythings, See.— Fr mi a fair, and just caleulatiou we will find, that the poor tenants, who cultivate itie earth, wnh the fweut ot tliir blows, do not obtain more than one lit'h part ot the emoluments, aiding froiu their aunit and indulhy. Their coxe’omical landlords nave more than one halt of the profits; and the tax laws, with the pricits tythes, Iwallow up about one fourth. Behold the boatted biefiiugs of heredi tary government!! Thank heaven, the people of America know how to appre eiate the privelfges ot citizenihip ; and may they never forget, that the temple of freedom, which, they peacefully inha bit, was erected by the p rfevering labor, and cemented with ihe precious blood of their revolutionas y forefathers. GRACCHUS. Fsom thk Nahonai Intssugsncsi. IT is suit a few years lince th opponents of the present adtiii niltration declared ttie.nfelves tiie genuine republicans of the coun try, and anathematifed thole who differed from them in opinion as enemies to liDerty and equal rights. They were then in pof • eliion of power, and by delud ing the people, peifuaded them that their prolpericy Ipr.tng from their mealures. They claimed to ihemfelvts the merit of the Faderiil,Contlitution, and the wile and temperate conduct of the l upright Walhington; though it is well known that Ibme of their leaders were in heart oppoled to that lyltem, 5c only aequiefeed in it as a (lep ping-ftene to a more splendid ffruffme ; that muff of the eminent men among the re publicans were of the number of those who ffrenuoully advocated its adoption; and though it was allbknownth.it the councils of Walhington were enlightened by the talents of our present Chief Magiffrate, and supported by the affections of the nation. Not withffanding these fads, the fe derahffs, as they cail themselves, arrogated all the virtue and ta lents of fociecy, and p~ ounced themselves the GENUINE RE PUBLICANS of America, l ueir claim has been tenaej juffy d.fputcd by their upper.- entsand finally di fa! lowed by ihe people ; and they have been pro nounced unworthy of national confidence; political power has been taken from them, and they have defeended, however reluc tantly, from tne elevated ground on which they flood. The man, who in adversity, holds the fame fentinrents, ad heres to the fame principles, and who, so far as his circumstances will allow, difeharges the fame duties, that he did in prosperity, is ennfidered by the world as an honed man ; while he who chan ges his lenciments, abandons his principles, and disregards his duties, is held to be a dishonest man. This test of character in ia private, equally applies to a f public man. Let us then examine the con ! duT of the federalifts according to this rule Do they in their adverfiiy and privation of power hold the fame fentimenss, cling to the fame principles and tlif ebarge the lame duties that they profelfed and pradtifed in the days of their prosperity, when all the poitical power of the nation was in their hands ? If they do j they deserve our applause ; if they do not they mud meric our ccnfure. In the pofleffi'n of power, they were not only republicans, but the only republicans ! Such was their declaration ! A repub lican government was the prou leff ftru&ure of human wisdom ! Their orators extolled, and their poets sung its praises ! When upbraided with entertaining an affefted attachment to this fpe ues of government as a cover to dark designs detlrudive of it, ’hey called God to witaefr. the purity of their aftedfiou and the ‘..•dor of their zeal for it. They and the people were then good miends. Conscious that they , mit to power by the reputation or being their best friends, they I viewed it as policy to profels (fill a devotion ro their rights. While therefore their mealurcs were in vasive of these rights, they bold ly tx.oiled their own patriotism and devotion to liberty ; like the hoary inffruments of perfection who, while they were engaged m (lie pious office of burning heretics, allured them that their bodies were burnt for the good of their fouls Mark the conduft of federal ifts, divelted of power ! Does their zeal for a republican gov ernment rimain unimpaired ! Do they still prize it as our greacelt national blessing ? Do they aim at inspiring the people with a love for and a pride in it ? This would be confident, magnani mous and virtuous. It woula prove that, in all vicifuudes of fortune, they remained the fame ; and that, however, in the intoxi ( cation of prosperity, they abused i power, they remained inflexible | m their attachment to principle. ] But unfortunately, for their lame, for that conliftcncy, magnanimi ty and virtue, which they still demand, che.r notes are entirely changed. We no longer hear them eulogifing a republican lyltem. Their admiration is chilled—The glowing of enthu siasm, they felt, or “affected to feel, is frozen. In its place have rilcn other sentiments. Reaiif ing that a republican govern ment, while it continues, will olalt the gratification of their alpiring hopes, they have adopt ed another policy; that of le cretljr and infiduoully undermin ing the affection of the people for it.—Hence the papers from one end of the continent to the other, aie employed in reprelcnt ing the defects, as they cail them, of republican governments. A* ware that it will not do to make an open attack upon the system itfelf, the molt wary exert their ingenuity in difletftmg it in piece meals, and in exposing the weak nels of each particular part. A nother ilratagem resorted to, is to applaud with the liveliest ad miration the measures of other governments, whole form is mo narcn.c.il, wlu.e the meal urn, o f our own government a e re > fenced as weak and contempti ble—Another arc is to paint in vivid colors the courage, the wealth, the fplcndor and the power of other governments, & the refpe&able rank they enable nations to hold among the pow ers of the earth, and to contrast this glowing pidture with what they pronounce, thepufilanimitv, the poverty, the meanness and the infignificance of our govern ment. Who is there that does not penetrate this disguise ? L it thicKer than the mantle of liber ty arid equality, which the lord of the French throws over his bolded invafionsof liberty ? This marked oppofiuon be tween the profeffioas of the fe deraliffs in power and out of power preEnts but one alterna tive- Either they, when in place, were infineere and iiollow in their profeflions or their preleut ientiments srifes frem perfbua’i resentment unworthy of liberal minds- If they were infineere, no reproach can be too severe, no punifbrnent which indignati on can infiiCl can be too heavy, for men who (ported wi h a tub ject so (acred and interesting to a free people ; and no confidence ought to be reposed in thole who pracli(ed such a system or decep tion ; an i if their present femi mencs arise from personal refent menr; if their haired of their opponents is io cordial that, re fill ved not to hold one fent.lne.lt in common with them, they j would rather part with their pat- \ riot.fin and their republican prin ciples, than coalesce in opinion, the [ eople will judge how they can merit the title of their friends who luPfer their principles, their, moll important principles, to be lacrificed on the alter of person-1 animoficy. A COKSISTENT RTPUBLICAX. TROY, (N. Y.) Sept. 2. On Thursday morning, the *rft ult. the right Rev. Billiop Moore, (attended by a number of hia clergy) consecrated the Episcopal Church in this village, I (lefignating it by the name of St. Paufs Church . The office was solemn and im pressive, and carried conviction lo the mind of the propriety of thus lolemniy setting apart and dedicating to Almigh ty God, a houfc ereAed for his woifhip. The Bilhop delivered an elegant and ap propriate tlifcourfe upon the occslion, in which were displayed, corredtads ot Hate, warmth of piety, and foundr.sfs ol doctrine, iiis mild, and yet venera ble and apoPiolic appearance gave a charm aid authority to his words, tLat sent them immediately to the heart, aud warmed it with all the pleating emotion of piety and devotion. In the afternoon of the lame day, the bilhop and his cier gy attended divine lciviee iti the chinch. Prayers were rs-nd by the Rev. ivlr. Stebbins, and a lermcn preached by the Rev, Mr. BealJey ; afttr which about feveuty perions were confirmed by the bilhop. It was highly gratifying to the pious mind, to fee so many (tlpecial'y among the youth,) come forward and publicly acknowledge their belief in the chriHian religion, and their intention of lying conformably to its requirements, entered into by their fpanfors at their baptism, and receiving thereupon the bencdidlion of God’s authorifed miuif ters, and an affu.rance through them of his gracious acceptance of their perions. It is to be hoped that they will evince the llricerity ot their protetlions by the purity of their lives, and dud (as they certainly will if they praCtife it) that the ways of religion are ways ot pleasant ness, and all her paths peace.

John Miles, junr late maflerof the Sloop Mary of New Heaven has ar rived at this port, after an absence of nearly 14 months. Captain Miles fail ed from New-llaven the 18th July, 1805, on a voyage to the river Oronoke, on the Spaniffi Main, where he arrived the 1A of Oftober following. The Go vrrnor, on examining the papers, imme diately took poffi.Tion o’ the veff I and ca-go, confiding of 300 barrels of flour, (worth 30 dollars per barrel) fome beef, butter, &c. The reason ailedged was that ihe had no sea letur. At the tiaie of l.is failing there were no blink, tea let ters fi rned by the Secretary of State, in the office, ami the collector of the port gave capt. Miles a certificate to that ef fect, which was produced, but 10 no pur pose. After fome month?, the owner of the vefft-l having got infoimatiot, of capt. Milt's Situation, obtained a lea letter, in form, with a certificate from the coilec. tor, that the Mary v. as entitled to that sea letter on her failing ; also the dj*po fi on cf the owners as to the citizeaffiip of the captain and people, the owncrfliip of the vefiei, her frilling, &c &c. and in adi ion, a mniular certificate, i.iiu for warded 5 ali which were received Ly capt. M. in May !aft, and laid before the Governor. These papers made amt. mentary impression upon him ; but final ly, be told'eapt. M. that the papers were all forged and he could not give up tire property. In-the mean time, the peop'e, fome of whom had attempted to cicape and get home, to give information of their iituation, had b.en tektr> up, them money, (about 600 dollars) taken from them by the governor, and they thrown, into prison, where they remained leveraf 1 months; but were at length, on the re j peated lolicitations cfl tue captain and others, liberated, but they, as also ihe captain were ordered not to leave the They remained fome months ia this li.nation ; till finding the veflel and cargo ruined, no hope ot rekafe, or re drels, and suspicious thai the governor* to secure himlelf from refpochbility fur the properly thus wantonly destroyed, might find means to take care of tiiem* and prevent any information getting home to their friends ; they determined, at the hazard of their lives, to attempt: their cicape, by the providence cf God, they happily effefted, and arrived laic at Trinidad in July lali, leaving everything behind them in the hands of the govera or. Yillnw Fevsr. —The Richnrond En quirer of the 9th instant aliens, that the Yellow Fever has nude its appearance a along the prisoners confined in the Pen nitentiary in that city —that one perfoa has already fallen a vi&im, and that fix or seven of the convicts were labouring under all the fymptoma of‘.he disease. It appears, however, that this malady has as yet been confined txclufively to the interior of the goal, and among the prsfoneis in confinement—the fuperin tendant ana h;s family were healthy—the guard who traverse the oul-fide of the building, were not affetfed, and fevcral perfoos had vifvted it since the appear ance of the disorder, in perf. latety The city of Richmond too is reprefenteif as uij tying an unexampled (hare of health, and not ihc fiigntclt alarm is said to pre vail among the inhabitants—The En quirer fays, “ the bell eftabhfhed opinion is, that the fever is not in the lead. infec tious; that it ratliei passes from the air to the patient, than from the patient to the air; that ever) in that case it dot* not immediately operate, but that it re quires time to break down the tone of the body, ere it can produce the effedl.” “ That the fever of the Peimitentiary is.the yellow fever of our cities, is deci ded by the two experienced and inge nious phylicians, who have attended it. Its fymptems are the fame in kind though infinitely less in degree ; the pain in the bread—the red eye—the Hun of a hue much darker than gtald—the black vomit, or blatk fstees, accordnij to theccurfe oi the bile.
