Jfisnow pretended that the Tcgfon for enlifting an arm v, was that of defending ourfelveS aaainft a probable invafion by France. On the 12th of March, 1794, a motion was made in the houle of reprefentatives of the United States, for adding fifteen nfand men to the m litarv cf?ah ifliment; ami on the firft c» April, in the fame feflion, a bid wis brought for adding twenty-five thoufand men ; in the difcuilion cf the bill, twen ty-five tboufand, fifteen thou find, and ten thoufand, were fiicccflively piopofed and reject ed. A bill palled in the fenate for ten thoufand men, but was rejected by the reprefentatives.

LIBERTY IS OUR MOTTO RSD TRUTH OVR GUIDE, ed to acknowledge defeat, and abandon the deep laid projetTs which had been conceived and brought forth by lo many fa pient heads, is too bad, too mor ti Tying for anti-republican pride! Yes, ye wife projectors of mo* narchial and ruinous fchemes! you have run your plans too hard : you have Rrctchtd the cord too tight; it has fnapped, and it will puzzle your beff poli tical rope-makers to fpi ice it again. Lamentation and re fentment are difplayed in all the tory papers, they pour foith floods of ca'umny upon the cha racter of that worthy citizen I homas [eflerfon ; but to thefe political detiadlers, we may fay m the pithy language cf an En glifh writer, etafe viper, you hit* againfl a fie , From the AURORA . The th r ee citizens who were con demned under an extraordinary py etch oj it gal con flru flic :i of the doßrines of treafon, Me firs. Fries Haney, and Getntun , were yefterday reprieved T the prejtdent , and im mediately liberated. This mea/ure calledJor by the public voice , and by the. wore fokmn dictates of jujlice and humanity, entitles Mr. Adams to prai/e—nor will we attempt to fippofe that it was dißated by any other than the mcjl laudable and praijt worthy motives, Mr. Adams many years before he could ever have expeßed to be placed in a fiation jo exalted , wrote exprefsh againfl fanguinary pnmfh ments. in the prefent inflance he has a tied flrißly conformable with the convißions of his early years. Air. Adams too was a lawyer , and it could not efcape his ohjerva iwn that the conflrußion of treafon put upon the oßs for which thofe fldl too grieviovfly injured men were found guilty of ireajon was as ex* cejpve and as high lined, as in any cafe under the mofl arbitrary or de lefable of Brit:fh judges ITe un der fiand that Mr. Adams has paid very great attention to the legal cha raßer of thofe proceedings , and, as it appears has condemned thejuage ments. We have forborne through ten dernefs to thofe injured men hitherto from animadverfion of every kind on the proceedings in their cafe. We cannot now refrain from ex preffin# our abhorrence of the whc.e proceeding in the cafe of thefe un fortunate men ; a cafenhich taking it at its root flowed from the extra vagant menfures which gave occa- Jion to lay an unpopular tax , from the ivantonnefs with which the in judicwvjl' r ho fen agents for levying it, condußed themfelves. This cafe , however* wc irufl will operate with fain!ary effeß on thofe who are entrufled with every branch of the government. It will we trvfi , point out to the executive cf the prefent and a future day. the delicacy with which the people Jhould be treated , and how careful the choice Jhould he of men whofe rafhnrfs , malice or whofe pri vate ammotify might lead to involve (heir political rivals :n jeopardy. The late Jacob F.yerely died un * der the imprcjfcn that his mijlaken ideas of revenge had committed thefe men to a puchc execution: and it is fuppofed to have haflened his death ; an awful leffon to rafh men To the judges of the fed ral courts this cafe ought to teach moderation and a love oj pure benev dent jujlice. 7 he acrimony of judgChafe in his charge on the fentence of thefe men , dees no A nor to our judiciary, nor to the humanity which ought to lim pet the feverefl aßs of legal jujlice. future judges may learn from this eafe t however , that ladling as they may be to /train the laws to party pajfwns, that a change in public fcn~ timent or a cool revijion of their de ctjions may fubjeß them to di!grace.
