** : no': quadrating with their ,Jcil wiihes, The fpiric of * .k language has not only been I'ccupped out as Ariftldes fays, by a certain Troop, a: the in ftirarion of their difappointed O t 14 commander ; but it has to ufe an analogous fimilie been vo mited forth- from the bench , — of joffice I would fay ■, of which foine notice was taken. I wiHi when Anflides treats of party again, he would try to be a little more ferious, and de feending from his tropes and figures to a plain idle, adapted t > common fenfe—tell us whe ther he reeky makes no diftinc tion between the nccdTary," juft and uniform general efforts of the people to guard and preferve their rights, and the Snifter en ds ivors of a reftlef, difcoment ed junto, to invade and deftroy them. We fee both parties equally a£iive at prefect. If we look into Hiftorv, we find precedents abundant; and it is more than probable it ever will be the cafe. Mow, I wifh to know if he indiscriminately con demns them both, as aftuated by a fpirit of party as reprehen fiblc in one as the other. If fuch a conclufion fhould be eftablifhed—by what moral pri no pie fhrali we be governed in our aflions and elections ? Bv what criterion fhail we judge between right and wrong ? If fo, then our excellent Preftdent, and to come nearer home, our Governor was put into office by this vile fpiric of party f for it is well known very great ex ertions were made againft him, and it required all the efforts thofe whom I judged to be the real friends of Georgia to elefc him ; then thofe who fopported his intereff are no more entitled to his individual regard, or the thanks of their country, than thofe who violently and inde cently oppofed him—bccaule party fpirit did it. For my part, 1 chink at prefent differ ently : I confider one as the will of the people, and with me vox populi eft vox Dei —-the other the voice of a faTion, a junto, oppofed to the public good, from whom alone party fpirit originates ; and to whom alone it can properly be aferibed. In one place (fpeaking of party fpirit) he fays, it may be the creature of our form of go vernment, but paradoxical as it may appear, it is the creature that will preferve its Creator.— Aker that he immediately pro ceeds to exhibit this creature of our form of government, as he terms it, m all the moff ludicrous points of view. Is Ariftldes an enemy to our form of govern ment ? Some of his expreffions would juflify the cenfuiv— <c to fluff the ravenous maw of patri otifm.” This may be confider cd very fubl me and elegant by Ariftides . If he is not a foe to our form of government —why does he burlefque the caule to which he fays it owes its pre fervation ? From fuch llrange inconfiftency, I am conftrained to impute his vindication of Mr. Millcdge more to partiality or force inferior confideration than to principle. If not, where ff“pt his tender fenfibiiity for fmblic chamber, when the moft indecent and infolent publica tion that ever di{graced the fa cred freedom of the prere appeared againft the man who has done more for the (late of Georgia., than any other perfon ever did, or perhaps ever will do, and at rne inftant when, lie was abfent from home render ing his country t lie mo ft im portant Ter vices—Services which will be remembered with gra titude by his fellow citizens, and their poftericy, fo long as that amiable virtue fhail find a rcfkicnce in the human b. eaft.

Left-, and to crown the in faience of which , puMiftjcd at the Scat of Government y under the very eye cf the Excentree. Was hi?; cm m City, May 10. On WcdndUay the Prdidenr of the United States left tins ci ty on a fhorc vifit to Monticello. On the laft page of our pa per, the reaper will find the ar ticles of agreement entered into between tne United States and the .Stare of Georgia. I his amicable and honorable termina tion of differences will be grate ful to every fincere friend to the union, as the adjii ft merit is made on terms of reciprocity, and juftice. It deferves to be enu merated among the important mcalures of the prefent admi n i ft ration ; and is a finking proof of the prompt and effec tual fteps taken by them in whatever regards the harmony and well-being of the union. ; On the fall day of the fcffidn, Mr, Gnfwold attempted to fu percede the efficacy of this convention. The effort was manfully oppofed by Mr, Mil ledge, who, in a ftyle energetic ana intelligent, convinced the houfe of the impropriety of the motion made by Mr. Grifwold, which tended, by means hafty and incon fide rate, to fruftratc ihe labours of feveral years of negociation. Ex trace of a letter from c member of Congrefs, to the Editor of the Raleigh Regifter. “ Tae committee of the Houfe of Keprefentatives of the United States, appointed to en quire into the ftate of the trea lury, and make report thereon, has made confiderable proa:refs : A. O J but, I apprehend the time it will be enabled to bellow in this in vef tigation during the prefent fef fion, will be fufficient to effect but a very linail portion of its duties ; as, from what I have al ready feen, a complete deve lopement and expofure of thofe accounts (or many cf them) ought to take place. Juftice demands it. Such a fccne of iniquity will not, I prefume, be found in any country, where laws, or a regard to principle ought to govern. It will at (Tice account to the people of this country why they have been progrdiiveiy burthened with every fpccles cf madnn, find i why the public debt experienced I no diminution for fcveral years, | whilft the government was in die receipt of from nine to fif teen millions of dollars annually; and alio, why we arc not to be furpriled that certain characters parted with power fo reluctant ly, by yielding to the will of the people ; nay, is it not a mat ter oi lurprife, that they did not attempt ocher means than tliofe which tiie influence of office and money could effed, and the terrors of arbitrary alien and fe dition laws prcTcribe, and which it might be pre fumed the pangs of a guilty confidence might have didated ? That chisfhould not have been the cafe, and that certain facts fhould have been, committed and remain | liable to cxpolure, can,only, in 1 my opinion, be accounted for from a degree of apathy, w hich they mult have conceived the extent and tendency of their meafurcs u. J warrant ” From the Baltimore 'FAcgrayb. Mr. Dobbin—By giving place to tne f dlowing annual, repoitof the Lend >n Alibciacion for Vac cine Inoculation, you v/ill con tribute much to convince the 1 readers of your paper of the benefits attainable by me Inocu lation of the Cow-Pox. “ Cf fixty tlioufand pc;ions who have already been inocu lated with Cow-Pox matter, it is doubtful whether four have died of the inoculation j and of ten thnufind who have been re r inoculated with the Small-Pox, not a (ingle well actefted cafe has been produced of this clifeafe having taken.
