rotation in office, ‘that Mr. Jeflferfon is advocated in the removals he has made! I aik why were removals made at all ? Did the public imereit demand them ? —Did the offices call greater talents thanthen filled them ? Hus last ques tion will be aniwered. in the nega tive : but we are told that the removals have been made that each party might participate in the offices of our govern ment. What mean artifice ! what despica ble fubterfuge ! No, fir, a hijtive hon orable like this is unknown to the pure Tons of Democracy, They were re moved becau’fe they are Federaliits ; be cause they venerated the cha rafter of gen. Wafhingcon, while the high prielts of Democracy hired afiaifins to (lab it ; bccaulc they approved the adminiltra tion of Mr. Adams, while in the fuppoi'ed pangs he occasioned that venerable charafter. These, these fel low-citizens, are the causes of their re moval. Hostile to our conllitution from its very adoption, the very moment of its adoption, this genuine republican sickened at the fight of Federaliits hold ing offices under it. His dark foul sou t ht every means of inflicting on those who would hot fall down, worlhip and adore this political monller of the new world. . Dcltitute of those ennobling qualities which almost liken man to his ‘maker, his obdurate heavt was gratified at feeing the silver headed veteran re duced to penury and want, and forced to labour with that hand which had once gallantly unsheathed his fvvord in the sa cred cause ot freedom, i. The ferviec.s fa; mcrly r'ehdered to ent’s country ; the fame required by military exploits ; the loss of health ; the total deprivation of fortune j all these were but feeble barriers indeed again ft that spirit of persecution, which lighted Upon the centre of our union,, blazes diftruftion in the face of every federal officer. Federaliits must be, retrieved ; the voice offaftion had denounced them; tne work of reformation mult be begun, and that work was reserved for the illi)l trious man of the people. Let us now, my countrymen, proceed to an examina tion of Fme other part of the exiting adminiftr3tion. I trust I have proved to you that the refiiovals hiade by Mr. jefferfon are unnecessary 5 that in iha king these removals he has not promo ted, in the smallest degree, the interests ot the ‘people ;, but only gratified the :datk spirit of political revenge., No imerefl of the nation demanded thtm; no fuyplicatory address had fainted-the eye of the (age of Monticftlo, praying them to be made.

It, was ytlterday whispered from one of the firft authorities, an authority en titled to our belt confidence, that a par tial change had taken place in the admi nistration ot the country j that Lord Moira had accepted the office of Matter General of the Ordinance ; that Lord Pelham had resigned his situation in the Home Department in favour of the Earl of Chatham ; and that Earl St. Vincent was every hour in the expectation of re (igning. A March 17. That partial Change in the adminif tration of the Affairs of this Country, which we yelterday noticed, is conhrined by the Sun ot last night in thele words “ We can now confidently date, that “ Earl St. Vincent, and Captains Str T. “ J'Yonx.bridgc and Markham , very speed “ ily retire.” The Succefibr of Lord St. Vincer.t, accordingly to report, was not yelterday finally fettled.. Lord Melville, it is laid, hfts refufed. Other changes may be soon expeded. Government, yelterday, in expectation of the Ultimatum of France, waited with much anxiety for the arrival ofaMdTen ger. The Clerks at certain Offices were ordered to be in waitirfg, ]to communi cate the news to the various Departments of State both in town and country.. It is, however, believed, that Uiionape.rtt will decline a diredt and plain declaration of his designs refpeCting the Armaments; and, till he dih'atches certain vellels to the lcveral deltinations in the East and IVest Indies, will adt on the evasive. It is, theiefore, to be hoped that our Gov ernment will infill on an immediate an swer, and not yield fubmifiivtly to the infolettt and reltlefis spirit of a man .who openly.avows the deitrudtion ot the Brit*- ifn Empire. . , , March ti, Last night we received the Paris jour nals to the 17th inlt. wlncn ltill prelerve the moil cautious silence on the lituation in which both countries are placed.— Not a report is inlerted, not a conjedture is hazarded, rcfpedtihg the imerefting dticullions which, aie pending betweeh our government and that of France. Vve ihould be happy were we certain that this reserve was the gen dine off ipring of the spirit of Peace, that it had tor its motive, the desire of avoiding ob fervatioi), which at a moment like the present might tend to exaiperate the in dignant feelings of action always quick to < forgive and forget even the greatclt injuries, when the rival a flumes the tone of reconciiatiQUj.and appears to return to the true lentiments of honor and ofjuftice. It is difficult,, however, for it a to flatter ourselves with this hope, when we re colleit the irritating, the indecent lan guage with which the French journals have abounded ever since tlie fignipg of the Preliminary Treaty of Peace.—dri a country where the Prels is, with rclpedt to poli,ricl difeufiions, completely en flaved,it may be txpedted that tiie Edi tors of the unofficial Papers would hesi tate to,Rate their opinions on a dueltion of so much magnitude as that ot Peace or War, until they fee the manner in which it is treated in the Moniteur ; and the latter Journal has, for fome time pall been altogether filled with the proceed ings of the Legislative Body and,the Tri bunate, on fubjedts wnich are certainly of great local importance to France, but which afford us no opportunity to form an opinion of the mind of the Govern ment at the present enfis, , r . , But whatever be the event of the ne gotiations which are. carrying on, it is our consolation to refledt, that at no pe riod can this country be better prepared, in means or in spirit, for the cqnteft into whic.* it may be obliged to enter. .; The atrocious condudt of’ France towards Switzerland and Holland , the suppres sion of every thing like freedom through out the , whole extent of the has deprived Buonaparte of the few in considerate partisans he cr.ee might have Sloped for in this country. Every En 'glifhman will be eagef to defend, the blessings he enjoys under our happy con flitution, and to shed his blood in oppo sing a foe whose only motives of attack would be plunder and oppreffioh. If we are involved in a wjtr, we trust It will be the care of the Government to demonstrate, beyond the poflibility of a doußt that i.t is just and neceflary ; and this country vyill then have nothing alarmingly, dangerous to apprehend, whatever be the force of the enemy, As to the important dueftions of Peace or War, we believe all was uncertain last night at the French Ambaflador’s.
