SINGULAR ACT OF GALLANTRY
Os ddmi't'l Ilopfon, <ivho lived during
the reign of’ Queen Anne.
B .ruhurclt vilisge, in the Isle of
Wight, claims , the honour of having
been the birth place of the gallant .Ad
miral Ilopfon ; who fr. m a common
lea-boy, role to an high rank or the
Navy, and was much celebrated in the
reign ct Queen Anne.
The hutory of this extraordinary
character is ss follovVs : He was left an
; rrhar. at an early age, and apprenticed
by the pat ill) to a Taylor ; a ipecics of
cmpl yment iil suited to hts enterpri/.-
ing (pirit. As he was one day fitting
alone on the (hop-b'>ard, with hisetes
uiredUd towards the lea, he was shuck
with the appearance of a squadron of
men of war coming round DunnolC :
Following the nrtl impulfeof his fancy,
he quitted his work, and ran down to
the beach ; where he cast off the painter
from the fiift boit he law, jumped on
board, and plied the oars lb well, that he
quickly reached the Admiral’s ship,
whctc he entered as a volunteer, turned
the boat adrift, and bade adieu to his na
tive place. Early the next morning the
Admiral fell in with 3 French fquadren,
and in a few hours a warm aiilion com
menced, which was fought on both sides
with equal bravery. During tins time
Hoplbn obeyed his orders with great
cheerfulnefs and alacrity ; but after
fighting two hours he became impatient,
and enquired of the lailors, what was
the object for which they were contend
ing ’. On being told the action mull con
tinue until tlie white rag at the enemy’s
malt head was struck, fm exclaimed, Oh!
if “ that's all, I’ll see vihat 1 can dos
At this moment the fliips were engaged
yard-arm and yard-arm, and obfeured
in the bnoke of the guns. Our young
hero taking advantagfe of this cir Cu
m determined to haul down the
cncmy*s colours, or to perifli in the at
tempt. He accordingly mounted the
shrouds unperceived, walked the hnrfe
of the main-yard, gained that of the
Frehch Admiral, and afeended with
agility to the main-top-gallam-mall
head, ltrlick and carried off the Frenc*
flag, with which he retreated ; and at
the moment he regained his own ship,
the British tars fiiouttd “ Victory ,” with
out any other catife than that the ene
my’s flag had disappeared.
Ihe crew of the French Ship, being
thrown into confuficn, in coniequence
cf the Icfs of the flag, ran from their
guns; and while the Admiral and offi
cers, equally fuipriled at the event, were
endeavouring to rally thefn, the Britilh
tars feived the opportunity, boarded the
yeflei and tock her. Hopfon; at this
juncture, defeended the shrouds, with
the French Admiral’s flag wound round
his irm, and displayed it triumphantly to
the failorson she main deck, Hopfon was
ordered to attend on the quarter deck,
and the Officers, far (to m giving him
credit sos his gallantry, gratified their
enYy by brow-beating him, ana threate
ning him with punilhjncnt for his
audacity ; but the Admiral, on hear
ing of the exploit, observed a very op
posite conduit. *• My lad (said he
to Hopfon,) I believe you to be a
brave yoting man ; from this day
I order you to walk the quarter-deck •
and, according to your future conduit,
you fh-ilf obtain my patronage and pro
tedfion.”. Hopfon soon convinced his
patron, that the countenance fhewft him
was not mtfplaccd. He went rapidly
through the leieral ranks of the service
until he became an Admiral; and so
great was the confidence which his so
vereign placed in his conduit, that she
gave him the command of a squadron,
vyith a commiflion to cruise at his own
diferetioh. In this service he acquitted
himffelf to the fatisfaition cfhis* royal
miltrefs, and became the pride of the
Britilh Navy.

An ADDRESS to the Inhabitant* of Montgc
'm.cry County, Maryland; by their
feflour-citij'n,
Chou.ii H. IV. WiiAaTOM.
No. 11.
IN complying, fellow citizens, with
the promise I have made in my last
dumber, it will be rsceffary to enter
into an examination of fome measures cf
the exilting adminiltration ; as it is part
partly from these and partly from
charges which affcfl Mr. Jefferfon’s
reputation as a moral man that I have
been compelled to alter my opinion,
of him. I advocated Mr. JerFerfon,
upon three grounds'; ift, Because I be
lieved him to be a genuine Republican,
and virtuous nun : zdly, Because I was
firm,/ persuaded he was friendly to our
conllitution —and tdly, Because I felt
allured that in his difeharge of the Pre
sidential fun£iions, he would be govern
ed by the unerring ittaxims of truth and
jullics. No views of a private nature
made me embark in his cause. I fought
no office—.vifhed no promotion. Se
cluded in a great degree frem the bullle
ol focicty, my cheif I may fay, my only
happinefj centred in retrement— Ambi
tion was dead in tne. I was therefore
gratifi and at Mr. Jelferfoti’s election, on
) ly lb l.ir as I conceived our interefes in a
genera! noir.tot view vvouid be advanced
by that event. I dee'lft these remarks
nccelfary, because if a Democrat be
comes a Federalist, he is immediately
confidcrcd by his former brethren as a
disappointed clnraifter—as a “man who
expected an office, but whole merits
were not luriiciently greait to entitle him
to executive patronage. I will now
enter into the proposed investigation"?
and in order that it may be attended
with fome advantage it will be necessary
to g 1 b id: to. the period of Mr. Jeffer
lon’s eiettion, to take a retrofpeftive
view of the public mind at this crisis,
; and then to examine how far his subse
quent conduct has comported with the
proinifes and profeflions of his Inaugural
Speech. However great the divisions
miy have been among us, at the period
of Mr. jefferfon's election, however one
party might ‘.ave adoiized and tiie other
abhorred him ; yet since he had been
: C'.nllitutionaliy elected to the firlt office
! in our gcverr.ment, the federalills ac
! quiefeed in t!e decision, and hoped but
viinly hoped indeed, that the opinion
they entera-ned of his eftarader might
be fallacious^—l, my country men, was one
of these who indulged in that hope; *.vith
the fulleit confidence that it would be
realized. The sincere and openly avow
ed advocice of Mr. Jefferfon, I confider
cd him as the very person pointed out
by the finger cf heaven itfclf to afiuage
the violence of party —to heal these
wounds which had too long bled—and
reltore to our confiitution its natural
vigor—buch were nty hopes and ex
pectations ; and they were greatly cher
iihed indeed, by Mr. Jefferfon’s Speech
on the day of his inanguration.
There a fifte display of every virtue
that can ennoble the hunian heart—here
we wttre told that however we might
differ in sentiment, in principle, we
were the fame that we arc ail Republicans
— all Federalist —that to the cor.ftifu
ticri we are all tqualiy attached, and to
support that conllitution we would all
equally lend our aid. We were assured
moreover, that the tranquility of fede
raliito fhuuld not be dilturbcd--that par
ty spirit should cease to exist—and that
once sßi'.re we might ciultingly exclaim,
“we are happy !” How pleasing this
portrait ridtuie; how flattering thde
promiles ! To nte —to the enthultallic
admirer of Mr. jefferlon’s character they
conveyed a fenfatioh of pleasure, which
no language can poflibly delcribe ! But
what was the coniequence ? Scarcely
was Mr. J. seated in the Presidential
chair—Scarcely had he aflumed those
reins which he has since so (hamefully
managed, than the counterpart of every
thing he had promised, took place—-The
malic was mon thrown off J and the torch
of unrelenting vengeance was to be feed
blazing under the alluned veil of political
philanthropy, l ederalilts were remov
ed from cilice—federalills who hail
fought our revolutionary battles—wbofe
lword was drawn in the sacred cause of
freedcin—a ho had encountered dangers
from which the heart of J — w ould
have shrunk with abjedt trepidation
These men, the foremolt in their coun
try’s cause, in the hour of danger and a
larm, were banished from executive pat
ronage ; and the disorganizing foreigner,
•nd the immaculate Tory, elevated to !
those italic,-rs from which the vindidtive
hand of arbitrary power had driven the
friends of America.
Such was the firft outset Mr. jeffer
fon’s presidential career. I paused, I was
about to censure, but passion silenced the
didtates of sober judgement. To these
who engage with ardor in the pursuit of
any darling plan, this apathy—this in
difference to the flggeldicns cf reason will
not appear extraordinary. If its influ
ence is experienced in the moll advanced |
stages of human life, how much more
powerfully rnufl it operate on the young
and inexperienced mind—on a youth
who was lltjl warm with the intoxicat
ing draught of democracy, and panted
for that moment when the genuine
ciples of a free government should be re
duced to pradlice. I sometimes reafon
.ed on this part of Mr. Jefferfon’s con
dudl; but my arguments were answered
by an appeal to my paflions : these were
alarihed ; andtthe light of reason became
dim and ebfeure. Had I refledted upon
this fubjedt as I have since done — had I J
viewed it with the eye of cendor and |
impartiality, I think, cay, lam sure I *
fhoufd have condemned it then as I re
probate it nova. The despot I have al
ways detested ; my principles of govern
ment are republican : and these princi
ples lead me to hold in sovereign con
tempt the artful demagogues, who by
flattery and other bale artifices, obtained
an afeendant over the people only to
trample on their rights. But it has
been alkcd, since I dilapproveof this part
of Mr. Jefferfon’s adminiltration, why J
did I not abandon him at the very mo
ment when he unfolded such tyrannical
principles. To this I answer, that at
1 that time I did not decidedly condemn
this part of Mr. Jefterfon’s conduit-im
pelled. by an enthultallic adoration of his j
character, I could not harbor arvidea de- :
rogatory to it ; but banilhed it from my j
mind as an obtrusive visitor. It is true I
I began to fulpedl the sincerity of his j
profeflions, I ixgan to doubt whether he j
poffefled thole genuine’republican pri i- j
ciples which his advocates aicribe to him : |
b*at if it should be said, that upon mere
suspicion, I ought to have abandoned him;
should the mere conjedtur.e of theerrone
oulnefs of a theory, induce its advocates
to abandon it without alowing that time
for its operation which would warrant it
rejection ? Certainly not. Upon the fame
ground then, I contend for the propri.
Cty of my adherence to Mr. Jefferioh,
while I believed him to be a republican
—while I believed him really attached
to the intertus of oUr country, I was a- ]
meng his moil ttrenuous supporters. j
But when ‘from certain parts of his ad
miniltration, I was led to alter my opi
nion of his character, I became his de
cided opponent. I did not skulk in the
dark. 1 did not conceal my opinions,
even from the malignant eye of demo
cracy. I adled, thank God ! With con
dor—l came forward, and in the public
prints I openly avowed my converiion to
Fedcralil'm. Some may have condemned
this itep as Imprudent—others, I know
think it prefuinptuous—but every one
mud admit my conduit to have been
efindid.

In the formation of bwi there ought to be
that plain and perceptible legibility of expres
sion at to prevent the poorest peasant in th*
land from,mtftaking its true meaning, and a re
gular difeharge of duty by the higher officers,
and a flrift observance of the law by men of
refpe&ability and rank, would be a grand pat
tern to tbs lower order of people, and the
chiefeft means of prefrrving regularity and
good order; but an omission of which brings
on difficultiet, and a coufufion in tbidgs un
surmountable. „ . ,
Had the executive of Georgia, when they
filled up the ediditnus to qualify the (heriff*
of the different counties, have direfled it to
the judge of tha superior, inflead of the justi
ces of the inferior court, or any two of them,
then the want of courts would not have been
so general, and the produftion of such unpar
donable otniffi jn Would not have been so Cr
veiely felt by tha individual luff rer;and per

would it have been that in the firft ftiges ot

judges had difeovered the defeftr; then the
evil resulting there From would.have oeen mpre

I am at a lots to know the fate of writs long

“ It will probably not be amiss to in
