From the Virginia Gazette.
Publilhed at Richmond.
Mr. Davis,
TO you is presented for publication,
the enclosed extiaft of a letter, of the 4th
instant, from a Philadelphia citizen, whose
life in the late war, when real objects were
at flake, exhibits incontrovertable testimo
nials of his love of country, his obedience
to the obligations of morality, and his per
' fonal military exertions in the cause of rea
son and of liberty.—l have introduced
this detail of the writer's chara&er, be
cause the inchoate palLonate proceeding®
of one branch of an august body, detailed
by the public papers, and heightened by
private correspondence, which every mail
circulates through this state, manifeits un
equivocally that the spirit of internal dif
c6t d and foreign war, is affectionately es
timated by some deputies of a people, who
hold the peaceable occupations of the har
row and the plough to be the certain paths
to national weight and to individual happi
ness, and who did fuppbfethat ourconfti
tution general, and conflitutions particu
lar, afforded a positive warrantee of peace
and its blessings to them, which never
could be interrupted by the egotism and
passion of men, clothed with public au
thority, aided by the desperation of their
seconds, whose noise is become as disgust
ing, as is their courage to fight and pow
er to pay those who have courage to fight*
Whether we are to be deprived of the a
bundant blessings we poflefs, will depend
on those to whom our public concerns arc
entrusted. May the God of Nature en
due our Congress with wisdom, and by
his lpecial interposition, save our nation
from the menaced deep calamity, by in
spiring the Houfc of.Reprefentatives with
a recollection, that they are the trufteei
of a people who love religion, obey the
truths of morality, and lijle our Blefled
Saviour, believe peace among mankind to
be the highest grade of felicity allowed
to the human race.
the extract.
"OUR worthy friend, I ought to fay
father, from his gootlnefs to us, has lived
too long : A second war opens to hii
view, and catches him like the past in
enterppfing commercial adventures I
wish his situation now was correfporident
to his situation then—but alas! injured
by the capture of his vefTels, and injured
by the paper payments received from
his country, he was reduced low *
—When he recommenced on the return
of peace the business to which he bad
been bred, again his honesty flourifhed,
and he had again fair profpeas from the
flow but certain gains of frugality and in
dustry.—Hi& numerous family urged him
into an extension of his foreign business,
and pending his second adventure on hig
enlarged plan, war appears !—war unne
cessary and apparently courted !—but so
it is—for could you hear the debates of
the Congress, you would think that our
| country's happiness is at an end Re
venge governs our politicians— or perhaps
ir m its garb, personal interests, personal a
nimosity, and base ambition—Our Le
gislators are too highly paid—They be
come proud and mighty of spirit, and
think that as they are well off so long as
they can hold their places, which they
.count certain so long as the passions and
not the judgment of their constituents can
be rcforted to, and therefore hold cheap
the pnblic welfare,—Virginia ought to
set the good example of mixing honor
with coin, in return for the services of
Congress. lam told your own State Se
nators and State delegates have but twelve
shillings per day in money, and the ba
lance in honor; and they are generally
speaking, superior to the United States'*
„ Ho'ufe of Representatives.
An experiment in Congress in this
way would be fair in this period of theory
—if it produced refpedt to refra&ion and
