SHAMEFUL.!—ODIOUS!
Tire harangues of John Randolph and the
Indian He port of William H. Crawford seem
in have had considerable influence in the last
\ congress. It passed a resolution well calculat-
ed to satiate the rancor of these gentlemen
j,,. i- ius t European emigrants, and to cherish their
predilections in favor of the blood-stained, moc
, casined savage warriors ,of the wilderness and
their drunken, dirty,greasy, blanketted, draggle-
tail squaws. The executive is required to Uc
before congress at the next session, and at cer
tain stated periods thereafter, a list of all ojji-
cers of tnegovernment, their names, salaries an;.'
PLACES of NATIVITY! The object of dis-
. ting.fishing between the rights of native ant;
egis
naturalized citizens is so obvious in this 1
lative mandate, that the wiilfull intention oi
congress to violate the constitution (which gua
rantees equal privileges to all the citizens of our
•country) cannot for a moment be doubted.—
No person can sincerely believe this procedure
to be il an oversight in congress.” What! the
«col’ected wisdom” ot our country enact a law
without knowing its import or end! No such
thing. Avarice and prejudice stimulated the
supporters of the measure to perjury, by in
fringing that constitution which they had
sworn to preserve entire.
But, has the conduct of naturalized foreign
ers been such as to justify this attempt to reduce
-them to the condition of ‘'hewers of wood and
♦■drawers' of water?” Have they discovered any
reluctance in repelling every hostile attempt on
rtieir adopted country? During the Revolution,
- the ‘oreigners, who declared themselves in favor
■ of our independence, were as active arid zeal -
ous as the native colonists; and, duringvthe late
'•war, while the New-Englanders allowed the
:English to retain Castine, without molestation.
■ szv.d were sending their deputies to Hartford
’with the express intention of cutting asunder
Tfhe ligature of the Union, these same adopted
jfcm*gtiers (with but few exceptions) in cou-
Sunctmn with their fellow-citizens at Baltimore.
New-v l-leans, and indeed wherever danger
tht'eapt.uieJ, bared their bosoms to the storm ol
war, an 1 rejoiced in the beams of our victories.
Arethes a t a men who are .’to be prohibited tlie
puciiic c to Sil ence? Are tiie . men, who have
ibreken e very tie that b* and them to the dear
though oj ppressed scenes of their youth on the
faffh of America's yielding them a home with
tl c lititi t v of her children, to be treated as out-
< arts? W ne-e tlien is the faith, the honor, of the
nat?ca? G one?—No! The people of Americaaie
still true Lo their motto—freedom and Equali
ty—dmt a joart of their public servants have base
ly betray e* d the confidence reposed in them—
that part, t s narrow-minded and selfish as they
are wicked, have transgressed the national hos
pitality, ami violated the laws of God and man,
b y the hein ous offence of perjury.
The Com sensation Bill, odious as it is, is no
more when compared with the wickedness
of this act t ban an emmet to an elephant, than a
torch to th* fiery crater of Etna. The encrease
of salary is no encroachment on tlie constitu
tion; is no simoon that passes over the con
s' fierice, wyb^ring every virtue and' blandish
ment of tlreSsunnd, and leaving behind but the
fet.d and pe, fiferous footsteps of perjury; it is
;• mere violation of confidence but what is
- other? D oes it not declare the European to
■ in inferior being. a grade between the freeman
id ofiaver and where is the man who feels not
iiynant vyher, t^e remark is applied to his an
cestors? What can be thought of the men who
have puhi shed to the world their forefathers 5
disgrace, by drawing such ah odious distinction
—a discrimination vvair.h allows that thev are
descended from individuals incapable of rational
freedom? Perjured, avaricious and shameless,
as the supporters of inks measure are, their names
mightto be known; the. veil of secrecy, that screen
which has kvi ierto kiipttnis law from the public
eye, Sfiould be torn in shivers, and the guiltv
seen. that the national indignation may pursue
tflem, and (he infamy of the last session never
again stain the annals of America: ‘'lor woe
to-our country,” if the progress of federal prin
ciples be not arrested.
A Worthy correspondent very justly remarks.
‘‘Thepolitical character of Benjamin Huger,
esq. member of congress, appears to have gained
great credit in this state for his opposition to the
Compensation Bill; and, undoubtedly, he is en
titled to korne merit; which we do not. wish to
diminish, unless it becomes offensive by invidi
ous comparisons. Mr. Huger is a respectable
gentleman and an American patriot,finit in his
opposition to this wretched measure, he did not
io more than our representatives, (a speech hard -
- V understood in congress excepted.) We, there
fore, Dunk, Diat there can be no difference be
tween Mr. Huger and Colonel £uTHBER-rorany
other of the state delegation to the lower house
of congress; for they are also respectable gentle-
menand American patriots: But did Mr. Huger
take the fifteen hundred dollars? We have no
proof that life did not; and are indirectly inform
ed,
compensation of fifteen hundred dollars is yet
unknown, and requested his name ijot to be pub
lished. If Mr. Huger refused this amount, let
it be ascertained; if he did not, let truth prevail,
and he fall on the same footing of the other mem
bers, who opposed the law, but took the compen
sation, because it was constitutionally tendered,
and it could not be refused without reflecting up
on a fair and honorable majority of congress.”
SOUTH-AMERICA.
It cannot have escaped the observation of any- one who
has cast his eyes over the variety of toasts at the differ
ent public festivals on tlie 4th instant, that the most pro
minent and general sentiment, after tlie great toasts of
the day, the constitution, and the memory of departed
patriots an. l*living worthies, was success to the struggles
for the emancipation of South-Amenca. A fact is thus
ascertained; that the people of Columbia regard the con
gest which now exists in that quarter with an interest, and
indeed anxiety, the extent of which had not before been
realized. So predominant, so universal is tlie sentiment,
that we need not be surprised if this subject be one of
those which among m.aiy others of great interest, will in |
some shape or otiier occupy the attention of congress at
their next session. The contest in Sputli-America, in
some degree, resembles hat which secured the indepen
dence of this nation; in which the cui/se of the colonies
may be as good, though tlie adaptation of republican go
vernment to their habits m..v not, be as certain. It is not
quite clear to us in what shape the United States can aid
them, if at all; hut to doubt tiicir good wishes, would be
to suppose them forgetful of the principles of the revolu
tion, and insensible to tlie nobicst principles of huin..n
action. It is impossible the citizens of the United States
snould net sympathize with a people contending in arms
for tiie right of self-government.—.YaUonal Intelligencer,
‘24th July.
The adored monarch of Spain is renowned for his re

FROM THE SPANISH MAINE.
The schooner Cumberland,. Captain Wilson, arrived at
Alexandria on uie 22d inst. in nine days from St. Bartho
lomews, hasf mushed the subjoined intdligence:
“Accounts had been received at St. Bartholomews
from the Maine, stating that the royalists had evacuated
nearly tub whole coast of Venezuela, and that the patriots
-were successful in every respect.
“The French fleet was momently looked for at Guada-
loupe:
“The markets at St. Bartholomews were glutted with
all kinds of American produce, and colonial pi’oduce was

“Havana, July 6.
“I am about to leave this place, for Orleans, in about
ten days; . nd use tlie opportunity that now offers, to
give you such information as can be li d, under tue Spa

general,that a force winch, uniting aii he brought with
