Republican and Federal Calculations
and Defigns,
The eleftion of the next pre
fidcnt is juflly confidered by the
people of the United States, as
an objeft which is highly defend
ing of their aflivity and political
exertion. It will be uleful to
take a view of this fubjeff, and
to expofe as far as potT.b'.c, the
general defigns of the two great
parties which exifl in this coun
try. Although we have no he
fitation in declaring a Ilrong and
unequivocal attachment to the
republican interefl of America,
and of the world Although
we have borne conflant teftimo
ny, and mean uniformly to do
it againfl all BiitiQi plans and
ariflocratic defigns, yet we hold
that the beft interefls of liberty
in America demands from each
republican printer, a temperate
and difpaflionate invefiigation
of the exifting concerns of bis
country, It is vaftly'important
to our welfare, that our next
prefident fhouldbe a true repub
lican ; and if the democratic
printers in the United States in
tend to contribute to the accorn
plifhment of this important ob
je£l, it mud be by conflant en
quiry into the nature of the cafe,
and the general defigns of par
ties.
Mr. Adams has been the fa
vorite of the federal party fince
the time in which General Wafh
ington abandoned every idea of
public concern, ard retired to
Mount Vernon. If we look at
the expreffions of public appro
bation which have been bellow
ed on Mr. Adams, the numerous
and flattering addreflTcs which
have been presented to him, and
the general evidences of refpefl
which he has uniformly received
from his party, we (ball be led
to believe that all the fedcrahfls
throughout the United States
confidered Adams next to WaOi
ington, as the faviour of his
country. Indeed they have faid
this, and more than this; they
have conflantly vociferated in
his praife.
Things however are charged
at prelent ; the unqualified ap
probation bellowed upon Mr.
Adams is diminifhed in its force
and brilliancy ; and his former
friends confider him as an im
proper perfon to anfwer the
furcfl purpofes of high-toned
anfi-republicanilm.
Mr. Adams it is faid, though
he writes and fpeaks and adls in
favor of the Britifh government,
is nevcrthelefs far behind that
real (late of political afltvity, of
general conviction and univcifal
energy, which ought to charac-
trrize a rt[pitiable prefident of an
enlightened nation. It has there
fore been determined, that Mr.
Adams muft take that huge
bundle cf praife which his friends
have bellowed upon him, and
retire in his humble Hate lo
Braintree.
Mr. Charles Cotefworth
Pinckney will anfwer the pur
poles of Britifh defign much
better. r I he party has chfco
vered that he is Icfs timid, and
that his politics are much higher
toned than thofe of Mr. Adams.
He is now to become in his turn
the faviour of his country, the
ohje6l of federal adoration, and
to conllitute cflentially the gloiy
and Iplenclour of the American
empire.
The explanation of this bufi
nefs is, that Mr. Adams has
grown unpopular ; that Mr.
1 inckney loves Britifh men and
Britifh meafures ; that the fede
rahfls conceive that he will run
belter in tne fouthern country
than Mr. Adams, and that the
whole force of the party com*
bined in his favor, even at the
cxponce ol facrifiring their com
mon idol, will work tiie clcfiied
efFcfl, of ellablifhing in the U
nited States, what every true
friend of lib erty would denomi
nate the word curfisnf the Bri
tifh monarchy. In fhort, that
if Pinckney could be defied,
that thefuhlme plan frift. conceiv
ed among feme ariflocratic rrem
bers of the convention which
formed the federal conflitution,
would eventually be eftablilbed,
and that the fucccffive fleps
which have been puifucd by the
federal adminiflration, w ill nei
ther be fruitlefs nor imfhcacious
in bringing about that important
change, by which the free citi
zens of this country arc to be
denominated fubjeOs, Congrefs
a parliament, and the prefident
a king.
On the contrary, the genuine
republicans and lovers of liberty
in America, have but one objefl,
and that is the preservation of
that genuine fentiment, the im
mortality of equal rights. To
complete this objeft, they have
directed their attention to Mr.
|efferfon, and him they mean
to fupport-—they are determined
if poffible, that he fhall be the
next Prefident, and in efFeflu
ating this objefl. they have com
menced by boldly announcing
it. Every thing is clear and
determinate—no dark and myf
terious plans to be unfolded,
but Ready to the principles that
gave birth to the revolution, the
republicans arc determined that
the author of the declaration of
independence (hall receive their
united fuffrages, and become tha
firO magiffrate of this free and
independent nation.

POLITICAL QUESTIONS.
Seriovfy addreffed to the confidera
tion of the imitator and admireri
of J'ffries, cnee the tyrant of
the Englijh bench .
IF Mr. [efferfon fhnuld fuo
ceed in the next prefidcmial
eleflion, and the chance is in
his favour, it will hcromc his
duty to nominate candidates for
fome of the moft important
offices under the federal govern
ment. And if Mr. Ell ('worth,
who is our prefent chief juftice,
ffiould be removed from that
office, by impeachment or death,
or like his prcdeceffor, Mr. Jay,
be elected governor of his native
ff ate, which latter cafe 1 do not
think as probable as either of the
former; irt calc of thofe events,
iff. Is it piobablc that Mr.
J efferfon, in (earching for a fuit
able pci Ton to fill that office,
would caff his eyes upen a man,
who had dcfccndcd from a very
dignified Hation, to become the
pack-horfe for conveying fedition :
who had become the bearer of a
book from Baltimore to Rich
mond, with marks and notes
designating the oflenflve pafla
ges, which he contrived to lay
before the giand inqueff, thus
becoming a voluntary tnfoTtrer
and willing tool of defpofifm,
a character that had been uni
formly held in utter deteflation
by all good men, fmee the com
mencement of civil inflitutions ?
2(1. Would he fclc6t for that
office a Judge, who had render
ed hirnlelf odious, and defpifed,
by his contumely and daftardly
conduft, when Ihiclded by the
cloak of judicial authority from
juft chaflifement for perfonal
abufe ?
3d. Or is it probable that Mr.'
Jcffcrfon would difgiace himfelf,
or continue todifgracc the union
by elavating a notorious traitor ;
a man who, while he was a mem
ber of congrefs during the revo
lutionary war, betrayed a ftato
fecret, to a flour fpeculator, and
became a partner in the mono
poly of that article, thereby en
riching hirnfelf at the expence
of the nation, the difadvantage
of his fellow citizens, and the
facnflcc of his honor and integ
rity.
4th, Can it be prefumed that
a man would be preferred to
that office, whole ambition to
obtain a feat in Congrefs had
led him to the difbonorable al
ternative of collecting a gang ofc*
tailors at the place of e ! ftion.
