An Eflay. on Slavery,
Designed to exhibit in a new point of view
its effects on morals, indujlry, and the peace of'
Jocicty. Some fa£fcs and calculations are otjcred
to prove the labor ot jreemen to be much more
productive than that ot flavcs ; that countries are
rich, powerful and happy, in proportion as the
laboring people, enjoy the fruits of.»their own
labor; and hence the n'ceffj» y conclu fioit, that
slavery is impolitic as wjll .'s unjujl.

UNITED STATES.
NEW-YORK, May 47.
We think it a duty at all times to ftatd
falls ; and warn the public of dangers.'
We have repeatedly noticed In speculation
the attempts of certain violent men and
popular aliociations to dictate, dire {I, or
in some measure, to influence the proceed
ings of government. We rnuft now relate
afa 3 that sets the danger of lUch attempts
in a strong point of view. k
Soon after it was known that the Alge-'
rines had made prisoners of a number of
our American seamen, government took
the moil effectual tneafures, and the most
liberal means were provided, to redeem
those unfortunate men. These measures
have been defeated by the m'fjudged and
ill-timed benevolences of our own citizens,
who, by various means, have been endea
voring to raise money for the fame purpose ♦
by voluntary contributions. For this fact,
however fmgular, we have unquji'ionalL
authority. The truth is, the of Al
giers would demand the highest sum for
the ransom of the captives, which he could
extort from government: But learning
that money was raising by private dona
tions, he has hitherto held their redemp
tion at fueh an unconscionable price, that
no agreement can be concluded with him.
To avoid this very inconvenience go
vernment kepi the sum to be offered, pri
vate; this led people to suppose r.o mea
sures had been taken to redeem the
wretched captives; and their humanity
called for benevolent aids.
It is thus the mipguidtd zeal of some,
and the sinister views of others, are per
petually embarraffmg or wholly thwart
ing the operations of government. The
mifchiefg arising from this constant popu
lar interference with the legiflattve and
executive powers of government, are in
numerable. People choose representa
tives to meet and consult on public affairs,
and then, itrftead of confiding in their re
presentatives who have the bejl means of
information, they themselves in private
clubs, tranlient associations, formed and
acfting on partial or inaccurate statements
of fadts, undertake to direst and controul
the measures of government. In short,
they eledt men to do business, and then
do it themselves, without the means of
knowing whether their steps are right or
wrong.
This of government, this in
cessant clamor about men and measures ;
this want of confidence in public officers ;
this haftv popular zeal, inflamed by pri
vate passions and sudden impreflions;
these efforts to diforgam'ze government,
and govern by private clubs bode mifchief
and calamity to America. If the people
will have no confidence in our executive ;
if he is not permitted to manage negocia
tions entrusted to him by the constitution
and laws of the United States; we mtiy
as well dilfolve the government at onte,
and " every man to his tent, O Israel."
Baffled in his steady pursuit of publit hap
piness and prosperity, by the intrigues
and cabals'of private clubs, under foreign
influence, probably foreign money, our
good President will perhaps grow weary
of exertiftns that are useless, and will Re
tire in disgust.
It is often necessary to keep negotiati
ons between itates, private : It was so in
the cafe here mentioned. It was for the
iiitereft.of America that the people (hotild
not know what measures were taking,
until the business was doled. And if the
Americans could have reft rained their
intemperate zeal, and let government'con
duct the business, our brethren in Al
giers might probably have been, by fhis
time, retlored to their country. But'the
benevolent intentions of government and
of all good citizens are defeated, by the
too h.ijly charity of individuals. There is
no doubt that great part of the Contribu.
tors-to the} fund for the relief of the cap.
tives, have the heft intensions ; but there
