TUESDAY, In, j, ,800. I IHF.RTI IS OUR MOTTO AND TRUTH OUR GUIDE, NEW-YORK. June 13. 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. From the Friend of the People . 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.
