IX XAH, AT SIX DOLLARS PER AX XUM. printing or fa ery descriptiox EXECUTED IYJTII XEATXESS, AT THE OFFICE OF THE AMERICAN PATRIOT. PROSPECTUS 0 F TII F. AMERICAN PATRIOT. THE principles which this PAPER will support, are designated by its name.—They arc principles founded upon an immutable ba sis, which misrepresentation may for a while obscure, but cannot permanently affect : prin ciples stamped by eternal experience, approv ed bv the plainest dictates of common sense, and recognised and practiced by \\ ASIIIXG •yON and HAMILTON. They advocate the honor of our country, not by pitiful parsimo ny, commercial restrictions, and ridiculous riiodomontade ; but by manly, adequate and efficient measures.—They cherish Agricul ture, and foster Manufactures, not by maim ing and crushing Commerce, but by extending towards it a just and liberal protection.—The operation of these principles ha\ ‘ rendered our country prosperous; and under their influence every branch of society were successfully en gaged in their various occupations—Our country men received an invigorating encour igcmentfrom the correct mid honorable mia aures of Governmental hninisteredbv aW.ASII INUTON—their purity were developed, and by appreciating them, wealth and its conse quent comforts and enjoyments, honor anil respect with their attending benefits, recom pensed the justness of their choice of Nation al Rulers.—’The same cause, the exercise of the same principles, will produce similar ef fects. To assist the restoration of this cause will be a leading object with this Paper.—ln promoting this desirable end; motitraliutt, can dor and truth will be rigidly adhered to, anil all private character inviolably held sacred. THIS Paper will comment upon with unre served liberality, public men and public mea sures, and will endeavor to place in a clear point of view, the misconduct of the public servants in attempting to cajole, deceive and mislead the people, thereby to maintain the high posts of honor, which their measures prove them incapacitated to fill; and the impropriety and incorrectnesa of their mea siuv-*, A'-ij4pl*t wiJi disaster and ruin.—To banish political deception and restore the clear light of truth ; to expose the petty art ifices nf intriguing and designing men, and give to Integrity and Talents their due weight and influence in society ; and to promote the great ends of” public utility and general welfare, by advocating enlightened and enlarged mea sures, will claim the strict attention of the Proprietors. THE pure American sentiments by which this print will unerringly he guided, shall receive no pollution from any foreign predilections: The aggressions of no nation will be paliatnl, nor the injuries or insults of any power extenuated ; a just, an ingenuous, a candid policy towards all nations, which disdains as unworthy the dignity of a great republic, and derogatory to the character of an enlightened government, equivocation or deoplion, will gladly receive our utmost sup poet. SKETCHES of debates in Congress, Marine Memoranda, interesting Foreign anil Domestic Intelligence, Public Documents, and Eloquent Popular Speeches, vs ill receive a regular insertion. Original Political and Scientific Essays, will claim our particular attention—and gentlemen of talents, whose observation, discernment and acquirements, renilerthcir opinion and remarks interesting, are invited to desseminate the productions of their leisure through this PAPER.

Iti tlu* Debate in tin* House of Representatives on Mr. Run’s motion to postpone the con sideration of the petition of the Citizens of Albany till the 4th day ofJuly next— Mi*. RANDOLPH rose to explain. Hi* must have been misunderstood hi the gcntlc niaii firm Kentucky when he supposed him to have expressed unwillingness to see a change effected in the administration of the government, lie certainly had not expressed himself to that effect; he htul no such till ing. On the contrary (for he was not in the habit of miking a see rot of his political opin-* ions) he could scarcely conceive of an v change which would not he tor the better ; since in bis judgment tin* affairs of this country vwiuitcvcr lie the object of our policy—wl.c* tliei* war or peace) could not have- been more miserably cqnducted than they had h, ‘cu since the 4th ot Non mbi t last, li was no! to tin* change, but to tlu* means bv which it so nn and bk.-ly tube brought about, that, Mr. R. bail expressed any tiling like repugnance. Il was to tin* particular means and not the object that be bad cipressed ihslike. lie did not wish to S.*e U change offi cted by the oppres sions and exactions of the government itself, “h 11 should embody and bring into power a long depressed party with all its feelings of iisciitmi nt or ot another description in full i igor or operation. lie Duel no wish to see a change brought about by means like this lie deprecated whatever might contribute to nourish aiiriTotv anil rancorous party spirit, übii ii led hem too long the curse of t,V country And whenever it should be found, lo use the language of the gentleman from Kentucky, ( Ur. Johnson) that he was this or that party, indsicriminatelv just i tying their follies and their crimes, hi’siioidd tie. lumsdf obnoxious to the observations made bv the gentleman from Kentucky, and not until then. No,sir; (aid Mr. K.)'lc.au inform that gentleman that there is not a grcati r moral unpnssiblity conceivable bv the mind of man, than that 1 should stand m’ itch stand in such an lation to any party whiit.so i \ *r. V. oe he unto that man, who cons gns hiiusi If over toso slavish a bondage ! Thi re was ore remark mail, Dy the ten tl* man fmm Kentmki which he would “not alii. tto imsui’dcv.sl:.’ j|. Tlie gentleman bad cxultiiigly said, that enr the ‘Jo days should claps those in opposition to the measures of government would be taught to lie more si- ■ ,t ; that once fairly cut. red ( n the war. I *-1 Johnson said die g'-nrieman would un til i* .* and him rightly—ii was to the sort of op p ..t.i.n lit .vie to tin- loan, winch in his mind w-s. little lc ss thru treason, that be applied bis remarks. He bad no alluvion tc lie prp "•. <ie.,*s of that bouse, j M r . It* ndolph, in continuation, said he did not very well un derstand till* gentleman's explanation, Ik*. enuae ill* was ignorant of the species of oppo. sion to which thn gentleman refined. Ho bail always considered a loan to be a vo!tmlttry thing- Hi bad heard indeed of forced Lam, but if a loan was meant a voluntary Set on the part of the lender, be could not compre hend ti e nature of an opposition to a public loam True, be had seen it more than hinted by some of those who will be herea.fti r pah i. ots of tiu* revolution, by some of those who lid escaped from the justice oi their own country in Europe—that after war was de clared ail the turies won* to be tan*, and and ft a tlicred. Fur it led been pronounced that tli a was to be a second war for indcpi mb me— m order lie supposed, to enable lie* patriots aforesaid to nmol their illustrious Hums among those o! the heroes of the revolution No. 2. As long as he retained a seat on that floor—and Heaven knows how long that will be—be should not hesitate lo express himself with the utmost freedom,nolwir'sn.mliiijraiiy invidious personalities tov.hiih .trim.hi sub ject him. He disci timed any allusion in this remark to the gentleman from Kciiiuckv. The gentle man bad i nilenvoi rd to con vict him of the charge of inconsistency on the subject of embargo ; quoting a pas. * n* in a speech of his as for b.,ck as M; reilßoC when the ground w.,s first broker. \*. h. nt,; since produced so many successive c p.; c.f restrictive measures. “To such ad a-ge of inconsistency at* that he should hard” b.la the trouble to make a detinue, lit > i.ur( !v the gemli men would recolii ct tl.a’ siuie that pt riod We bud been under the discipline of. n imbargo for almost eighteen worth*.

Hot Ihe doleful can: rier.ee of the lamb r.-o of 1308—9 drove the piopk* ore and al—Whig snd Tori, Monarchist and Democrat; Feder alist anil Republican—to escape as from a house on fin*. Suppose in a certain slagt **f a disease a regular physician to preset;!*'! the warm batli, and hi i sturdy nurses should p' l "* sist in pl'liigiug the unhappy patient *u*o a cauldron and parboiling him 48 hours; R you think von could ever prevail upon the sick man, (supposing him to survive the ope ration) or the physician, to agree to aim'll'l exhibition of tin* same remedy ’ No s i*, a burnt Child dreads the fire.

It is the most compendious system of devasta tion and destruction ever invented—a mast, r piece of human ingenuity. Xt the t’u re terrc'l to by the gentleman from Ker.li ckj , the famous experiment had new t* Ir en made, or (lie believed) thought of by any human be ing In the world. The remarks made on the subject of ma ■ ■jeritn and minority were in tlu ir cliaractcr s<* much like those to which be bad been acei.s turned to listen in the spring of 1800, from the n embers of the then majority that tl:-*y reminded h m (as. well hs other circumstan ces which forced themselves on his chain a tion) of old times.
