" « " h rr T-t No. VII. ««th To th, Elttlori of the ?refift op pof«d to that instrument in principle. The (ftf courfcs vpon Dav'tla too, are the mod forcible cor roborations of this oppofiticn, and upon theftrong presumption, thac they are the work j»f Mr. A dims they amount to an aS'i-ot unfriendl'tneft to the tffential and cardinal principle of all our constitu tions, both of the dates and of the onion. They tend at this time to invite tli* intetpafuion of the foreign monarchies in our affairs, however different were certainly the views, with which they were written. It has been *lfo observed that Mr. Adams's book was written before his two elections, and yet ; that the people had confided in him as vice-presi dent. It is however true that the third volume, being publifhc-d in London in 1788) could not be ftjr fa!e -j in the America* Book-stores before the measures were taken for the firft eledlio*. But what is much more im» n( j portaat and is absolutely true, the books were not read* r much less Studied ia America, for books intended to display great historical events and relating to the prin ciples of government are »»t to be perused like a sum* mer'stale—an amusing fible for an August day. By the writer of t-hel'e papers the fecund and third Volumes , had never been seen, except so far as their ontfides ia the library of fon»e other person.« And tho' the firft volume had been a dlually pur-chafed, from frntiments of refpedt to Mr. Adams's character and flat ran, it is a truth, that other vacations and other books had occa sioned it never to be either Studied or perused. Its con tents and principles ware Hot know* 'till within a year or two last past, when other circumstances of the nature of the book, rendered Mr. Adams's work anohje but "publican government—We knciv it to exist, and we wiih it were only i* common minds, and in perfo*r !e r '^^ c infiuenct. It is the true cause of the present refpc<£tfui addreft to tkc Understandings, and patriotifra Of the E'eftors. r It is particularly nrceffary to remark, that there have bee* Jiveml partial and general editions of Mr. Adams's work. Ths firft voiume was published ifl Philadelphia by Hall and Sellers, and the whole 3 volumes were printed in London. Other edition® have been printed, it,is believed in the Eafleri) Slates, The size of the paper, types and paging have dif ie f,red more or fcfs. The Preface in the Philadelv ,n phia Duodecimo occupies foventetn pages, but in the (London edition it covers twenty-fix pages.— ■ t Sometimes it appears, that the preface is meant to be referred to by writers in the Gaseues, when how — ever they express themselves so, that thereader sup.' poses it is the main body of the work. No volume « numbered on the back, as the firft, beciufe, when £ the hrit volume was published in Europe and in A raerrca, it is manifeft that the author delivered it *? the world as an entire work, without any intima tion of pubhfhing a second and third volume. The main body of the work, in this firft valume, tamed in a little more than 389 pages in the Phi. ladelphia copy, and occupies 392 pages in the Lon don edition. These remarks upon the different edi jj tuns wA pacing: and upon the preface and the main wort are recommended to particular attention, be cause they will obviate some diffatisfaftion which . has been excited by the idea of designed raifquo ' tat 10ns. Iwo examples will be given. Time doe» not adsait of stating more. A writer from Hen rico, in Virginia, animadverts with feeling, Hpon some opponent of Mr. Adams, for quoting a pas. , [ 3g '* ai fro " 1 j hc Bth P»ge of his work, and fays, he has read that page, and can find no fueh sen tence in it, as wai given by the writer he is oppof. ing. Now it is found, on examination, that th« passage referred to is substantially, in the feventl, , page of Hall and Seller,'s Philadelphia edition, and in the ninth page of the London edition, It so not 1* the eighth page of either of those editions, so that the quoter must have had another copy. But further, it is in and not in the mainlodv of the work. The passage is materila, and is fair jy given to the world as Mr. Adam, wrote it w . T 2 en I ,leman mentioned " monarchy" i B the slofeof the preceding paragraph, and then gave the oilowtng words, except the word monarchy, which ..nowputinto a parenthesis, and not in Italics, for the lake of ft net accuracy.—— „ " "fyf"" "> tieft governments (monarchv) u not iecaufe they are fupportedly no ile, and a fa. !, °f rank s ; Sovemmenu, ,{ m the mast democratic!, are supported hy a fubordi natnti of office:, and ranks too." So, again, in the 2id page of the London fire /«r, and in .he I Jth of the preface of Hall and Sellers s editron, it is said, that a limitud monarchy ■ft. T kr f ro P net y» be called
