THE MORALITY OF
BOSTON.
The correct principles of !
Boston in morality, religion
and politics, have been the 1
i theme of enlogy from the ;
j time of Alexander Ham- j
ilton to tlie prelent day.
Every town that gives a large
majority of federal votes,
mutt be a town of correct j
principles 5 but whit lay
fads!
The federal papers arc
now tilled with avowals of
“ the ino/l abominable ob
feenity and debauchery prac
ticed by almoli all aj;es and
colors.” The Daily Ad. j
vertifer speaks of “ vice that
would disgrace any place in
Chriltcndom ; even a Venice
during the Carnival.*’ A
writer in that paper declares
it &s his opinion, ** that
there is no place in America,
to the north of the Millifiiip
pi, where the low*lt liiilipa
liun and debauchery is fj
excelfive as on Weft Bojlon
Hilir The account tticrc ;
hinted at of reduction and
debauchery pradtifed in Bos
ton, is a disgrace to any j
people, tnucli more, (to
ule the words of Mr. Qnn
! cey’s resolve) of “ a moral
| and religious people.” Wc
I are that there is »o
where to be found fuen fla
grant conduct as isdelcribed
in this town, vauntingly
called ** the head quarters
of good principles.”
Had we puolilhed in our
paper, that Boftc«n was j
j famous for “ male bawds,
panders of the mod filthy
lulls, of every color,” we
fhotild hardly have escaped
abuse. Wc acknowledge
with them the truth of these
'accuiations; and wc btlieve
** HOL ® THB mirror up to nature— Shakespeare.
there is no negro village in
Africa, or Indian town in
the wilderness, to be com
pared for vice, debauchery
and loathsome dilcafe, with
some parts of Boston.
If to this debauchery
| which difgrace* our town,
according to federal prints,
with Sodom and Gimarrah,
we add the vice es gluttony
and intemperate drinking,
| treasonable practices, open
GJ>P O fitions to the laws, cor.
ftantly reviling the officers
of government, pleaching
|up of (edition, and a dijjolu
! tion of the Union ; and lmug
gling, and comforting and
feeoing the enemy, for the
fake of gain, we lhall ceale
to wonder at the numbers
that are daily—yes daily
quitting Boston and its neigh
borhood for the western
states ; and we lhall ceaie
to wonder at the contempt
wc are held in by Admiral
Warren and Sir Ttiomaj Har
dy, and by the writers in
the Montreal papers.
Factious Writers and Faftious
Printers .
Certain persons, we learn
fed hurt, and are very an
-1 gry ot the words •« fatftioui
writers ar.d factious printers”
, Impartial reader, take the
following as an example, &
fay what term is molt ap
propriate to such language
and such sentiments. It is
an extradt from a late Con
necticut paper. Speaking
of the attrccitics of the Bri.
tifh troops, which the wri
ter ailedges *•' have been too
much magnified,” ho pro
ceeds to fay :
J “ Without enquiring in
to the truth or faifthood of
the various /lories told, wc
will take the liberty to en
quire who is answerable for
a: 1 the outrages that have
happened or that may here- !
after happen, during the
exiilence of this unprincipled
war ? It the British burn
houses and raviih women
j if the Indians buuher their
| priloneri—wi*o is to blame !
Excciate the Britilh and In
dians as much as we please,
| the evil is nearer home—it
i* chargeable to those who
wantonly & wickedly plun
ged us into the war. The
war was undertaken for base
purpbfes; and its conlequen
ces, however deplorable,
are chargeable to its authors.
Mr. Madifoi., Mr- Monroe,
Mr. Gallatin, Mr. Clay, Mr
i Gmndy, &c. &c. are an.
fwerabie for all the cruelties
committed, all the blood
fpilr, all the lives loft either
by disease or in battle.”
Come —thvre is a barefa
ced buldnets and impudence
is this language ihatdefcrvc
a degree of credit, in its uay
work—this Hero of Faction
fcoi ns all fubterfuge, and o
pens his battery at once a
gainst the government of hi)
country !
If such language as this
had appeared in Lord Caitle
reagh’s magazine of lies and j
lcurrility, the London Cou- j
rier, it is no more than
! what might be expec
ted from such a quarter —
but it comes from the pen of
an American writer in an
American paper; we fay it
is a lamentable instance of
national depravity no where
else to be found.
When in this paper, we
speak of the Knglifh nation,
we deft re once for all, that
it may be known, wc make
a clear and wide deftinftion |
between the virtuous part of ;
that nation, and those men,
who, unfortunately for the
repose of the world have, in
thier hands the government
of that county —So also, \
when we Speak of the great
body of the Federalists in
thisi country, we desire to
be understood as withing to
feparjte the honorable, the
American portion of them,
from those venal, factious
men, who, with Wafiington
in their mouths, but with
George the 'lhird in their
hearts, arc evidently endea
voring to fubjcift the Union,
and again fubjeft us to the
corrupt dominion of Eng
land—jßalt. American .
New Orleans Batture.
We arc informed that this
celebrated caule has at lift
been determined in favor of
Mr. Livingston. After ft>
veral iruitlehapplications to
the national legislature and
an abortive attempt to reco
ver damages from Mr. Jef
fciton, in the state ts Vir
ginia. Mr. Livingston took
the course which we think I
that he fliould have pursued
fsQin the beginning,* and
brought a suit 111 the Fede
ral Court at Now Orleans a
gaimt Mr. Dorgenoy, the
Marlhal, who had dilpofief
feu him in the year 1808,
by virtue of an illegal war
rant. That gentleman ap
peared to the iuit, and for
his defence dated the au
thority under which he had
acted. So that there was
nothing to be decided but
the point of law whether
that authority was legal or
not. But while matters
were in that situation, and
the case ready for a hearing,
the Diftridt Attorney lor
the United States, adtingasj
is prelumed f rom the nn- j
pulie of zeal, and without;
an express or diiedt autho- !
rity from the government,;
filing a fuggeition dating)
thjt the suit haU bec/i infti-
I toted and managed by col
luiion berween the plaintiff
and defendant, in order to
affect in an indireil and im
proper manner the claims of
the United States to the
property in controverfey,
j and moved the Court to dif
f tnifs the (ait on that ground,
i After hearing affidavits on
both sides the court decreed
j the dilmiflion of Mr. Li**
j vingtlon’s petition, which
I in its elfe&s was tantamount
to a final decision again It
him. He however appeal
ed to the Snpieme Court of
thi United State*, who af
ter a full hearing, by abjc
counsel on both sides, re
vers'd that decree, and re
j mended the cause back to be
heard and determined on itj
I reai merits. Accordingly
the cause was heard, and
wc undsrfland, fully argu
ed, on all the important
points which it involves, 6c
\ upon the whole, on the 3d
;of left mouth the court de
cked and ordered that Mr,
Living lion fhouid be relfo
red to the poireflion of the
Batture. Ihe proceedings
in this cause, are, as wc arc
informed, conformable to
the rules and forms »f the
, civil law, and are analogous
to our inquifiiion of forcible
entry and detainer. Thus
Mr. Living (ton is restored
to the poffcifion of his long
disputed property.
