Mr, jctTerfon was finerre iri his pro
{pflioils, and would aft up to them. —
Ip col. Burr he had no confidence. —
A few pafiin? years have evinced that
Hamilton thought correftly. That
fame col. Burr, who palmed himfelf
upon the people as iLe friend of a go
vernment cminating from them ; a
government deriving :U Urength from
the affections of the people, has infid-j
jo ally endeavored to wean those af
fections from it, by inducing an opini
on that it wanted energy. Will any
man, or ar.y party, deny the truth of
theftaffernons ? Lifok at the depoli

Dikvppointed in his intriuges with
thefedcraUP.s, in the vain hope of be
ing made prefitknt in opposition to
the voice of the people ; he contented
to be mo, by that party, as govcrnoi
i.,f Kc*vYoi-k. Here Hamilton again
oppofvd him; an at here that oppuii
tionwas feakd with his bkx>d. Bun
then became e second Cain tipm

tions 2 gajuff the prefect, adtuhsiftraiioi
produced a regeneration in the eyes o
raany of the federalilb. Men ol th..
party, who had {worn eternal hatred t
Col Burr? who avowed an anxiety t
go on a pilgi image to Nev/-York, to a
failinate him, v< : hns much pious zeal ‘
as the Mahometans ever peiformed • ’
pilgrimage to Macca, have been th
fir ft to nuke him a tender of then
friendly offices ; to hail him as a fain
upon cat th. These attentions hav
vot been confined to federal ills alone
or to men in more private flattens.
God forbid, that tt iliould have i
happened that col. Burr had not ex
perienced every degree of humanity.
‘i he known liberality and inforrr.aiiot
of the people of Virginia, were a fort
pledge that this would not have been
withheld from him. But, was it right
was ,U even decorious for men, hold
ing high and refpeftable offices, to
laanifdt a marked degree of attention
to col. Burr, when he or fome of his
counsel were in the daily habit of re
pre fen ting the government as the mean,
diftar.dly peilccutors of a help’d* i.n
dividual.
Why, v;e again ask, should dvr gov
eminent pcrfecutc any man, much Ids
col. Burr ? Is there any thing in the
organization of the government, or in
the charafter of the individuals bv
whom it is adrr.iniflercd, particularly
in Mr. jefferfon, who deservedly,
Hands fa high in the estimation of the
people, which could juftify such a fiif
p'Cion ?—Every candid man will an
i’viier in the negative.
From col. Burr he had nothing to
fear. Vet it has been attempted
throughout this long and laborious tri
al, to make it a mere personal contcfi
between Mr. jefferfon and col. Burr.
Here let us do that j office to many
of the federal) ft* to which they arc en
titled. This sentiment is by no means
univerf.) among them. Very many
enlightened and refpeftable men oi
that partv, view the late operations of
colonel Iltirr on the Millifippi, with
d.at indignation and horror which
ought to fill the breast of every good
citizen, who fincereiy believes that a
f'eparadcn of the union was mediated.
Is colonel Burr innocent ? If he be,
why not coin l an opportunity of man
iidling his innocence to the world ?
O j
t Why seize hold of legal obj est ions,
and endeavor to suppress the evidence?
The people will draw their own con
clusions.
