Mr. Marsmali., one of the three extra w envoys from the United States to France, is Rated in a letter from Havre de Grace of 23d September, to have arrived at Am- < ~ fterdam. "In 2or 3 days he will arrive at 1 ' • Paris, together with Mr. Pinckney." . —. & " The cnnfticution of the ♦hird year" was the 31 rallying point of the triumvirate in France and 2. yet the authors and fupportern of that conflitUtion th are proscribed and banifhid. The cenftituttpn prohibits the armies fisom deli berating on political fuhjefls—and the Trinm- P e vin attribute their/vecefs agiird the author* aind co friends of the constitution to the deliberations tftht wi armiei. an The constitution declares the invioiAßiLif v of crl the persons of th« .representatives,; apd .yet the i( Triumviri have proscribed and hanilhcd upwards f of fifty of the representatives of- the foveieig-n people, -without trial. CX There were thirty-fix Newspapers printed in Gi Paris previous to the late political Tornado—Thir- q ty-two were fupprelTed by tfce Triumvirs, and the Printers proscribed and banished—sour cou- eOl tinue to be puMifhed—all of which are Uid to be edited by foreigners. By this it would appear that T> the citizens of Paris ate oppolcd to the direiftory ma in a ratio of more than eight to one. The truth j t ] however can hardly be known .while the bayonet continues to give law. ve ' The apathy with which tie puplt of France ap- "in p»ar to view the recent ufurpationi, and the over- Pri throw of the conflitution, fuffiaiently evinces the horrid condition of the country. Handed, during Q fix years, from one mad faction to another, — from Marat to Robespierre, mil from Robefpierr* to Rewbel, —ttripped of their pofTcffions by enor mous requisitions, they folly realize that no change of circumftaaces can deteriorate their condition. The enthusiastic fervor which has led them thro' Bri death and carnage, has evaporated, and left behind the lees of tyifcry and dcfpaii*. Awakened from their dreams of liberty and their fantaflic concep tions of equality, they behold their religion taken Sch from them, their privileges aboliflied, and their property wrested from their hands. 11 Madness has brought them to the-gates of Hell, —and there , . has left them." Shi for the GAZETTE of the UN/TED STATES. Mr. Finno. Your pnhlifhing the following British Review Bri of a pamphlet, which well deserves the perusal Sch of every ferioui and candid inquirer after religi- ( ous truth, will, 1 am confident be plcafing to f ror many of your readers. The dangerous and unfcriptural doftrines which the author so ably refutes, are, it is tq be feared, rapidly extending their malignant in fluence among us ; and therefor* every truly ; valuable effort to check their progress, and ex pose their fallacy, merits general attention. As luch Dr. Wharton's publication has jufily been eonfidcred by the reviewers, and being the pro <hi£liOn of American pen, it will, 1 trust, , . meet with as favorable a reception here, as it i!' 'g has in Europe. Yours, Lor A SUBSCRIBER. C Philadelphia, Nov. Jf. 1797. the < Phil A short and Candid N Into the proofs of Chnft's Divinity, in ivhich fcho opinion concerning Chrijl Ban is oceafionally confulered. In a Letter to a Ne« Friend, by C. H. Whartok, D. D. and Member of the PbilofopKcal Society of Phi ladelphia. A [ Philadelphia : Ormrod & Cnnrad. 1796.3 This pamphlet appears to have been writ- « , • ten and pubiifhed in the year 1791 ; but on l e%v account of Dr. Priestley's arrival in' Ame- time rica, and preaching the firft open an 3 avow- N( * ed deface of the Unitarian system ever put ; licly delivered in that city, it is now re-pub-' " w,th a preface, containing fnme re | marks on that discourse. Dr. W. states the.' serious alarm it had occasioned among " the =4r P rofc{r ° r ' of th e ancient doarines refpeft ing Jesus Christ, and ialvation thro' him," [pub- anc ' • , ft" ur es Dr. P. that however ready tliey may be to facrifice theirprejudices torevealed 1 Lan- t ru tn» yet conceiving their only solid foun- 1 'heat a,1 . 0n ' f° r prefent.tranquility and future for- r^ tri^u tion," to be, " the consolatory tenet liam of atonement," they cannot yield d up their present system of faith «to any •' >wn- ''""g ftiort of unanswerable arguments, and Dbls. 1 e m °ft luminous convidlion.' ' ld 7 1 ~D . r ,P' a flirts, "that Christianity, be- ra :hias flde bein g proved to be true, must be Siewn 3 to be rattona'." But with Dr. W. the lart, flm P ,e question is, « are these do'ariges uan- commumc ated to us by divine revelation, or left- are the .y not ? The reasonableness of this m 1 revelation is not to be proved or examined, nty, oeeaufe revelation implies information of ut :wt. J or " et hing > which reason cannot difcoyer ; no 7 ] b . , ancT therefore must bf different from all the j ei do dedudions of reason." If christianity con ;ar. ; ta,n nothing but what lies within the reach P e cts. ! of human reason, why was revelation at all lf 40 to man ? or why is it said to brbi ~ life and immortality to light ? Why does St- Paul tell Timothy that great is the mystery fro of godliness? Where was the need of. hip Christ's laborious life, unparalleled fufFjr- L led in Sf. and ignominioift death, to fanftion 0 . lb. P lnl ons, to introduce a system of morals, ! qr., which reason alone could eftahlifh ? ' Having thus stated the question, and :af- d^ avore d to shew that the mere reformation of human morals could not be the grand irn- n of Christianity, Dr. W. leads us to r 1 ei- enquiry on the ground of scripture and c l°i a- an, ;q»ity. - mt After the utmost, and apparently the PI" ip, m °ft fmccre profeflioas of candor, and even I"' 1 ft- veneration for Dr. Prieftly'j charaaer as a ob j c lan Philosopher and a man of letters, Dr. W. X ,Is. a <h«rt abftraa of the doarine of the Z" i'i new_Teftament refptaing Christ, in a pro- has' ed Rreluve ordec—lliewing that our Lord Jirft the rid taught his diciplcs to conceive of him as a P r£ f prophet, the promised messiah—and then mik p, gradually led them on, to the higher parts *7] ed of his charaaer, and to the fublimer truths gi '" of Christianity, as they were able to bear his £'l b. mftruaions. So the Apostles with like y cantion and prudence began with the firß crue n _ principles of Christianity, and led their con- , E | g< verts on gradually to perfeaion. To this ■e- evidence Dr. W. subjoins the usual proofs '" va from the Aas of the Apostles, and the Re- of St. John, that the firft Chris- refoi tians aauallr worfhtpped Jesus Christ. ! of v la the next place Dr. W. appeals to the fnc n early ecclesiastical writers, viz. Hegifippus, iu t . Clemens Romauus, Ireneus, Ignatius, an >" a Poly-carp, and Juftin Martyr ; particular- £, rod , Iy the latter : but the passages have been so often cited that we forbear to copy them : Ung . a we (hall however tranferibe a few remarka- colou ;> hie cxtraas from early Pagan writerg, which have strongly corroborate the aflertion that Jcfu» the e Christ wis worfhippfd by the firft believers. the 0 t 1. Pliny afferts,that, "the Christians met l"!' before daylight to address therafelves in a tne p form qf prayer to Christ, [so Dr. W. tranf. fcoloi e lates carmenque Chrijli] ,a« to some God." pies, d 2. Antoninus Pius, in an Edia diVeded to n the Stares of Aiia, fays of the fame Chris- Ofl tians, "It is more f or them to bo Fr . enc J permuted and die for their Gad, than to mi,rc(: i continue in life." 3. Lucian charges them h""' ' , with " rejeaing the Gods of the Greeks, and, rvorfhipping only that deceiver who was . crucified." 4. Porphyry confefles, that, ,1 " si nce Jesus (whom he tlfewhere calls the ! J , dead God) has been worshipped, no one has experienced public affiitance from the 'n . T 1 Gods." Lastly. Julian reproaches the '1 j Christians " for worshipping two Gods, contrary to the exprefs command of Moses." f a Upon the whole we consider this as a •! Traa, which does honor to the author, and W \ may be very seasonable in Philadelphia. If P it has any blemishes, they are such as ard very uncommon among polemic writers, jrtiVfc ' S —an excessive candour, and extravagant a 7 tCni miration of the author's aritagonift, Dr. Priestly. - L GAZETTE MARINE LIST.
