A MONO ti e various inconCftencies j
wh'ch diflmguifh human ra ure, Uete
is peihaps none more extravagant than
(ha hi in<lfoM adnrrafinn arid enlhufiaftt
w h which the bulk of mankind follow
particular names iu a politics! coatru-
verfy. The leaders of every adminiftra
tion commit numerous faults; aod thrr
an'agonifte, who come after t 1 cm inva
r ably tread in the fame trick. In pri
vate life, we,can hardiy hod ten pedon*
in the courfe of as many years, whoj
pnftcfs, or who deferve implicit truft.
Yet with this knowledge and dtftruft
of each other by experience, and in
detail, we do not frrup'e to give urqua*
lified and unlimited confidence to the
leaders of thofc rcTpcftivc part es under j
wl cm we have cnh’ftcd. We can f ardiy j
truft one man whom we know, and yet 1
we fruit an hundred, all together, of
whom the greater part of us know no*
thing hut by report. Thuslht profound
nvi/dom of Gallstin, and the virtues of
our illuftrioua Prefidcnt, from each of
them, a favorite chorus, with their feve
ral partizens; while it is beyond al
quettion that the continent contains
itioufands, and lens of thoubnds of
men, who are quite as wife as the one,
and quite as honeft as the o'he r.
This publication wll unto'd a very
extenfive fceoc of wcaknefs and abfur
d ty, of the profligate wade of pubhc
money, and the profligate dtfertion of
public principles. The ft refs of cenftire
will reft upon the pref nl governing
party, bccaufe they hold for the time
the national purfe, *nd have therefore
the moft extenfive opportunitita of per
petrat'ng mifehief. But, at the fame
time, the reader will not be forfeited
W’th encomiums on the champtons of
oppofitton. The bufmefs of the nation
haa been abominably conduced ; but a
gu-at part of the blame is equally due to
both paries.
Part of rhe contents of th’s volume
refer to fubjefts but little known to the
cit zens of this country ; and moft of
them arc fuch as cannot fa : l to excite
furprize ind indignation. For inftance,
I wi'l print the name of a Senator, who,
at the difeuffion of Jay's treaty, injure
1795, fpokc thus to one of his brethren s
—Damn the “ trea y. I deleft it as
** much as yon do ; but you know my
“ fnuation with Mr. J<iy. lam obliged
“ to vote for it on account of my friend*
fhip for him .'**
I (hall alfo give the name of a Sena’or
who harangued in the Senate of Con
urefs, for fevcral days, againft the fedi
tion ad. He thru voted for it, and
d dared to two of his brethten. that he
Iti!! hdd that ad as hnr
t' at it was neccflary to keep at nun the
darn'd praters ,
Wh tn examining a multiplicity of
complicated fu k jeds, it is difficult to
cfcape the probability of being forne
-1 mei miftaken. In relating afucceflion
of (ads, where every ftep excites con
tempt or dc r cfta r ton, it is difficult to
svo dan occasional feverity of expreffion.
Even this will be pardoned, if it cannot
be defended, when 1 am to defenbe
f enes of plunder, which might force a
blufh into the beak of the moft hung-y
Cormorant, that ever took his fight
from Connecticut to rood on the federal
treafury,
