The d'll"rent authorities of the Italian Monarchy, having taken the oath offi deli-, ty to the King, his Majesty addressed them in tnefe terms : “ Senators, <f Vv r e with el on ruts oec.a lion to come a. nong you, for Ihe purpose of acquainting you vvitli what onr thoughts are, upon one oJ the mod important objects of the If arc. i( Switzerland v/as occupied by our sr. mies...

AUGUSTA, „ The great objciff of the monarchists or anti-republicans, natives as well as foreigners, redding jn this country fmee the revolution has .invariably been to cry down Republi canism and bring the democratic inftiuuions of America, into disgrace and contempt at Home :ind abroad. With this view Porcupine attacked Re publicanism, aflhrting that it was rank Jacobinifm—and at another time, hcaffailed it in the guise of Democracy, boldly dis tinguishing between both, as if they were not the fame fifing, or the terms Jy?ianymous. The .Anti-rcppblipaps and torics from that day to this, persevere in their libellous and . treacherous attacks on Republicanism, pre. tending that it is fomeihing very widely different from Democracy.—lt was in this Tpirit of-hoftility tq republicanism, that ..FJobby ip, his.two last fbeets, assailed the - democratic principles long embraced and ■, chcrifhed by the majority of the Citizens »f thef; dates, and p/adfically afkd on by their refpeftive governments. This hostility to Democracy, on the part of Hobby, is the more strange, as he ia re presented to have been a few years ajo, one of the mod flaming and cnthufiaftic Demo crats in Georgia-—he is said to have gone so far, as to have aflifted at planting the tree of Liberty in Petersburg, capping it with the bontt reuge % and dancingjround it, with the agility of a Cheroke or a Carmignol. Why this little gentleman renounced his prin. ciples, is best known to himfelf; but if we may venture an opinion, we verily believe he never was really and truly a Republican -.he only were the maJi , until he found a favorable opportunity of throwing it off. When aristocracy and monarchical princi. pies began ro rear their heads in the Repub. lie, under the late administration, then the Anti-republicans and Tories began to un. dt/gttje themselves, and openly combat the principles and dofhincs, they prefetfed and pretended to believe before. Still, do those confpirarors and domestic traitors perferve in their open attacks on the Democracy of the United Statcs—ftill do they endeavour to libel and the general Government, as well as those of the different states, for avowing democratic principles; and that these, and these only, arc the principles avowed, we shall prove by the following pa Sages, from an add of . , the J-egiflature of the State of Georgia, and . then leave the reader to form bis own opin ion of the objefl and vit'ws of Hobby and others, who aflail Democracy on every oc- . • caflon. • ~T <f And the fame is not only unfounded as being without expreft. conftitatlonal an ds-V U.
