This work will contain the following chapters. lit. On the manner of consolidating a free government, by aristocracy and defpotifim* 2d.. On the manner of making crea tures for government in popular a( femblies, with notes on that important ohje<St, taken from the port folios of lord North and mr. Pitt; as alio from the correlpondence of mr, \ alons, at this moment in America, found among the papers of Louis XVlth. 3d. On the advantage of a Funding , system for the purpose of ruining the farmers, and enriching the merchants and flock jobbers, who are more dii pofed, in general, to favour the views of ftateiinen, than thole plain yeo manry who are acquainted only liberty, the rights of man, and the law. 4th. On the danger which threatens the United States, if they continue allies to France, which teems deter mined (in spite of the efforts of mr. . M , American ambafl'adnr at Pa ris) to maintain in their full force the principles of the mod pure democracy. 1 sth. On the necellity of forming an intimate connexion with England, whose principles on government, on the administration, on the finances, on the excile, on the flamps, on the pub lic debts, bear a great analogy with j those which an enlightened patriotilm wilhes to perpetuate or introduce in America. 6th. On the art of rendering un popular, by calumny and falfiiood, all those national and foreign fools,known Under the denomination cf republi cans, anti-federalifls, and jacobins,who prefer the happiness of the people to their private interest, and who look’ I upon it as their duty to tell them the I truth, as if it were neceflary to inform 1 those who were to be governed. 7 tlu On the expediency of restrain- H ing the liberty of the press, and of ■ hindering individuals, and even parti ■ cular dates, from concerning them % l’elves with political affairs, since in a I free government they interest only those who hold the helm of the vefi'el, and the keys of the treasury. 3th. A particular difierratibn on the H physical and moral force of treaties, I and on the rtieans that may be em ployed to elude them, with the help ofquotations drawn from the mod an cient authors of antiquity, the plead ings of federal lawyers, and a ilrong dole of ingratitude. * -r04P3r048"00 — CHESTERFIELD’S PROPHECY* The following quotation from lord Chefterfield’s letters, (written ui 1752) will at once serve to shew his lordftiip’s difcernmcnt, and th f early foundation laid to the prefect French revolution. “ I received this momen- y oir t£ r of the 19th, with the enloled “ WHERE LIBERTY DWELLS, THERE IS MY COUNTRY.’’ —Franklin. SAVANNAH: PRINTED BY JAMES CAREY, ON THE BAY, NEAR THE COFFEE-HOUSE. pieces relative to the present dispute between the king [of France] and the parliament. I lliall return them by lord Huntingdon, whom you will soon fee at Paris, and who will like wise carry you the piece which I for got in making up th? packet 1 sent you by the fpanilh ambaflador. Ihe re prefentarion of the parliament is very well drawn, fuaviier in medo, jot titer in re. They tell the king very re fpectfully, that in a certain case, •which they Jhculii think it criminal to fupp'J they would not obey him. This hath a tendency to what we here call revo lution principles. I do not know what the lord’s annointed, his vicegerent upon earth, divinely appointed by him, and accountable to none but him for his adions, will either think or do, upon these symptoms of reason and good-sense, which leem to be breaking out all over*Frafice; but this I fore fee, that before the end of this cen tury, the trade of both king and priest will not be half (o good a one as it has been. Du Clos,. in, his Reflexions, hath observed, and very truly, qu'ily a un ga me de ra jon qut commence a fe dcvelloiper en Fimmcc- A devil'PP tnent that mud prove fatal to regal amt papal pretensions. Prudence may, in many cases, recommend an occaiional fuhmiffion to either ; but when that ignorance, upon which an implicit faith in both could only be founded, is once removed, God’s vicegerent, Chrift’s vicar, will only be obeyed and believed, as far as the one orders, and the other lays, is conformable to reason and to truth.” THE fiibfcriber takes the liberty to ac quaint the planters and the public in general, that he continues to prosecute the FACTORAGE & COMMIS SION BUSINESS only, and hopes, from his assiduous endeavours, to promote the interest of those who may favour him \yj3ll their commands. —Eli,s Bores are as convenient for the teception and fccurity of produce as any in this city: Orders from the country will be punc tually attended to.
