TO develope the causes which contirtue to
confine this country to that tame and dif
hanorablc policy, which has marked all her
tranfadtions with France, is a task no less
ufeful than difficult. To remedy an evil, it
is firft neceffaryto ascertain the source whence
that evil fpringss la tracing this enquiry,
the farther we advance, the stronger is otir
ground for alarm. Amortgft the most pro
minent of those causes which have contribu
ted to repress the spirit of America frdhv
rising in arms against France, is undoubtedly
to be ranked the intrigue and influence of
• tlut power amongst ourselves. That France
had it in contemplation to reduce these states
under her dominion so early as the year
175.6, —that she at that time had agents in
Philadelphia, in purfuanctf of that plan,—
that she commenced the war of 1778 against
fereat~6ritain, and feht armies to "America,
with this exptefs view, are well established
fatts. That this mad conception of her
: naddeft ambition, was resuscitated and warm
ly cherished by the eccentric projectors of
the is also authenticated by fadts
of general notoriety—4>y the nliffion and in
ftruitions ef the incendiary, Genet, by the
history of Fauehet, Randolph, and the Flour
Merchants, by the Wcftprn Infurreftion
they produced, by the aitivity in that In
surrection of the infamous Genevan, a man
nctcrioufly fold to France, by th'e odd ad
vertures of Adet and his train, by the appeal
of the latter to the peqple, in which he ex
horts them to aboil fh their government and
cleave to France, by the labors of I.achaife,
of Mareellac, of Volney, -, ,
# and the reft of her numerous (or rather num
scrlefs) tribe of emiffai'ies here.
These are a few of the direst evidences of
a systematized plan to reduce America under
French domination. The tollateral evidences
are vrtliminous indeed. Whether we search
for them in public or in private walks,—
•whether we dive into the records of those
p ftifrrous inftruiwents of hers, the Demo
cratic Societies, Or exalt ourvieV to the Areo
pagus of the country, on either and on every
Me, deep and damning c.ircumftances stare us
in the face, and compel conviction. In the
assiduous flatteries heaped on our great men,
by public aAs of the Revolutionizes, in
their statues of Franklin and of Jefferfon,
and the apotlieofis of the former in the Hea
thenifhVantheon,—in their affefted humility
of cfcnteding to America the honor of setting
them an illustrious example, by her Revolu
tion, we discover ramifications of the fame
iyftein, still undeviatingly, though remotely
purfuedw
But in working out this grand design, an
inftruiiient more powerful, betaufe morejex
teiifive and immediate in its operations, and
more dangerous f#ofli the secrecy, art and ad
dress. wmcli it admitted in management, was
found iu the Press. Through this medium
have her. servants, in eight years, worked
more corruption, destroyed more morality,
and excited more ill-temper, than could have
been effected by all her other means in a
Century. It is, in short, chiefly by this
means, th3t she has reduced the country to
its present state ; and by the manner in which
•she has availed herftlf of that engine, no less
than in the feleftion of it, has she displayed
a " skill" which our fortune alone has ena
- .. - S
bled us to countervail.
Freffes hired by France, writers hired by
France to supply those prefles with the fuel
of sedition, are of much longer flanding in
Americi, than most people imagine. But
the neceflities of the revolution, called for
the more regular and systematic employment
of them. In the capital France had a print
er, formally appointed and salaried : three
■' counsellors to the republic," received each
•po louis d'or, per ann. for furnifhing the
literary stock of this imprimerie de la Re
tiublique. Since France commenced her de
predations upon this country, the declamati
ons issued from this polluted source, have
uniformly dilated upon thele two prominent
points.—The power of France and the poli
cy of peace. Ever)' thing, said these, ftiould
be fecrificed to peace. By yielding up part
of our pollellions, we retain the reft along

she ?r>pe inftanced) iriceiifed at the
| i'eizure ui i'ome of his dominions, made war ;
j and they fo< nft ripped him of all. The-long
j train of miseries attendant oti war, the ghaft
! ly crowd of horrars, all reeking from the
pencils of perverl'e poets,—of Southey, Faw
cett and of Merry, nave been made to pass
in review, an hundred and an hundred times.
The continual dropping of water will wear
| away stone. The brain of ignorance, teized
j with the endlefk repetition of these fantafies,
became imprefled with them as oracles of
truth, and really looked on war as murder and
misery in the abstract. Swift, along the ex
tended line of communication, fliot like bane
ful and portentous meteors, all these degene
rating efforts ; their impression is at this day
every where felt.
A fordid spirit, which has contributed
unjustly to bring disgrace on the mercantile
character of our country, has also co-operat
ed in retarding a vigorous hostility te the
views of France. Amidst all t,he tricks of
the great nation, notwithstanding her role d'
equipage, sea letter, and other traps for our
commerce, a few men had still contrived to
maintain a gainful trade with France, and
her pofleflions these all join in the hue
and cry against war, and effedtively co-ope
rate with the democrats, in enlarging on
the bteffrngs of peace.
It is time openly to proclaim the truth,
tnat war is an evil only by corilparifdn, and
that it is a contingency in the lot of nati
ons, more dangerous to be shunned than
fought.'

COMMUNICATION.
AT a crilis so momentous as the present,
it is the indilpenfable duty o£ ever/ 'native
American Citizen, to be conftanity on his
watch-tower and endeavor by every pollible
circumspeCtion to deteCt the emillaritt of a
disorganizing faCtion and expose them to the
meritedchaftifement of thofelaws, made and
promulgated for the general good. With
this impretfion in full force on my mind, I
was called to make an excurlion a few days
ago through the county of Montgomery,
where, I was mOre and more convinced, of
the neceflity of the most energetic measures in
government and promptitude in those whose
duty it is to enforce laws ; from observing
what I once supposed was confined within
the city, the alarming extent and increaiing
virulence of the United Irilhmen.
Notwithftandingmany folemnproteftations
to the contrary, it is but too true, that this
curfcd irpa has infected our atmosphere alio
I and poiloned the current of life in many of
our once worthy fellow countrymen —I was
induced to investigate the caufc of this grow
ing calamity, that if pollible I might (natch
one deluded citizen from this destruCtive in
fluence.
First—lt appears that in this county, as
unfortunately in too many others withip this
state, a great disproportion of outcasts from
the French and Irish nations ; but particular
ly of the latter, have unguardedly been ad
mitted as settlers. These, discovering am
ple scope for the display of their dil'orderly
talents, have combined with certain Ameri
cans, who have fold their birthright for a
pottage and others, citizens by name ; but
nature abhors the unnatural reality ; are con
stantly inveighing again it the proceedings of
our government, which on all occasions they
prevert, becauie their wilhes tend to the pro
duction of every {pedes of confufion.—Thus
their firft step is to create a want of confidence
in those reprelentatives, whofp talents mud
eventually prove the lalvation of the nation ;
and this among those whose deficiency in
point of information, prevents them from
discovering the dangerous tendency of such
luggeftions.
Second—But the mpft oftcniible reason I
conceive to be owing to the great number of
democrats who have been advanced to the of
fice of magistrates, either through gross in
attention, or as is more than probable, through
the particular favor of one, w ho, if really a
friend to our constitution and cooftitutcd au
thorities, has a peculiar way of evincing it.
These magistrates, so far from difcountc
nancing, in every instance make it a point to
encourage that illiberality of fentimenC\
which relates to men and measures ; because
it is perfectly congenial to their own feelings.
From these causes the spirit of disaffection
is growing tp an alarming degree.
Judge of the truth of the above from the
following faCts:
_ the Jate election in this county, two
judges, violent democfats, ported on the
bench in oppofttion t'o one hone ft, worthy
servant of the public. '
The clerk, a jacobin Frenchman, who hat
been keeping up his part of the farce for
some time, by a (Turing the unfulpefting that,
the •President was in too much haste for war
—that the French government as he called
it, sincerely desired to be on the most friend
ly terms with us—of this he was fully in
formed by frequent letters from that coun
try, particularly during the delay of Mr.
Gerry. From this retailer of deception firft
originated the report among this people, that
the direftory had revoked the orders for cap
turing American vessels—that many of their
privateers were laid up, that an amballador
was to accompany Mr. Gerry for the pur
pose of accommodating all differences, and
yet he does not hesitate to fay, that we only
are the aggressors. Thus you fee we have
one of the juggling lift among us, who,
though an alien may pass such censures on
our adminiftrxtion as best suits his purposes,
and that in the presence of Iri(h democratic
magiftratej who not only fuffer such insolence
to go unpunished, but countenances his vote
at ele&ions ! 1
Further—A candidate for a feat in the
House of Congress, has lince the election
acknowledged that his faccefs was owing to
ingenuity—of what kind, we learn In part
from one of your publications some weeks
back ; and now, that the judges, whose
opinions predominated at the election, did
a£tually fuffer several to ,vote for this candi
date, who were neither Americans nor citi
zens. This appears to be an age conspicu
ous for ex-divin<s becoming political judges.
Furtbtj- A very full meeting of these dif
contentcd gentry tvas held on the 29th ult
at the Inn of Mr. ——•, for the purpose of
appointing committees of conference agreea
bly to their nefarious constitution, which
comniitteS were to meet at the house of Mr.
arrangements for communicating with the
societies of the fame stamp in the city.
The most notorious c iara£ter in the above
group, is said to be an Irishman, who, for a
length of time, commanded a company of
United Iriftwnen in his native country ; but
finding himfelf closely pressed by the vigi
lance of authority, he abandoned his wife
and Ireland forAmerisa in 1792 or 1793 —
Mere discovering a wide field for the exercise
of his savage principles, he commenced his
career by refufing to become an American
citizen and associating particularly with those
who have long viewed the regularity of our
government with malevolence.
Since the promulgation of the alien bill
(which I sincerely wi(h had been pafled ten
years ago) this captain John, if you please,
has been afliduoudy engaged in riding about
the country, for the purpose of misleading
the people as to the ijruc intent of this bili,
the' houlc tax, tlie.ft.nnp tar, 2nd the sedi
tion bill. Having founded the alarm for
rebellion, he was the .inoft proper
per ton to ride in chariftijr cf a courier, to
notify and collect the members of the differ
ent committees—for you must Know, luch
is the authority' vested in the general body,
that many are appointed who were not pre
sent ; this is considered as the most effectu
al method of fearing a wavering or tiipid
difpolition.
This champion of sedition is attended ge
nerally by a very loquacious waiter (an apt
fellow for a recruiting corporal in this bu
linefs) many years older than himfelf and from
the fame country. This last has long fmcebeen
placed upon honorable record by the legifla
turc ot Pennlylvania, and therefore con
ceives he may with some plausibility make a
second attempt to stop the wbeeii of govern
merit.
But what (hall we fay of that man (an old
man) who having faithfully dilcharged his
duty to his country during the.revolutionary
war, now attaches himfelf to the measures of
this infamous band ? Who, that ht: may
conceal his political apoftacy from the zea
lous friends of adminifti-ation, is conflrained
to have recourse to that badg#, which none
but truly viituous Americans (hould wear !
Who, to gratify private animolity fecks
public ruin, by becoming a spy fdrjn army
of foreign and domestic cirt throats. Rare
business for one upon whose head time has
long since placed his mark !
But these government reformers, cloak
their movements under the specious pretext
of communicating upon the subjeCt of pre
paring a petition to be presented to congress
i for the repeal of the laws before noticed. If
this is their intention, why not admit others
to their meeting, than those who have evin
ced themselves inimical to the present ad- !
ministration ? Why aliens and seditious a
postate Americans only ? .
Why appoint those for their committee
men, whose views tend to the destruCtion
of public tranquility ? Why not other*, for
even in Nazareth some good may be found.
Wherefore fend a man to imbody their
Committees, whose irregular conduCt in Ire
land, obliged him to fly from merited justice
and whose officious behaviour in this country,
proves him unworthy tht nanv of an Ameri
can citizen; wherefore, but fur motives
which they dare not name.

PROPOSALS
BY BENJAMIN DAVIES,
For pMiJking lyfulfiription,a periodical work
to be entitled The Philadelphia Magaaine
and Review ; or, Monthly Repository of
Information and Amusement.
AFTER the many fruillefi attempts, which
have been made to eltablifh a publication
of this kind in Philadelphia, the proposal) aow
fubmitled, will, perhaps, at firft light, appear lo
l>e nothing more than foliating disappointment
When, however, we observe an eager feaof.
afier knowledge spreading through -all parts in
our coBOtr), and when we consider, that, in
these pursuits, Magazines and Reviews are of
universally-admitted utility, we are led to be
lieve, that former undertaking* in ihia way have
failed from some other caufc t!|an the want of
discernment or liberality in those, to whom the
Editors looked up for support.
From causes, which are too evident to need
enumerating here, America is, and long must be
beholden in a very considerable dfgree, to the
preflei of Great Britain. The literature of the
two countries is, indeed, a fort of common
(tock ; but, for one publication of ours, we re
ceive, at least five hundred in return. While
this ii the cafe, it ic extreme foil/ in the pubiiflj
er of a periodical work, to iqeCt. from a fort of
fpurioui patriotism, all information, however
uteful, and all amusement, however delightl'ome,
inertly bccaufe it is not of native production.
Obvious, however, as the juflice of these re
marks aiuft appear we have very little doubt in
our miuds, that an obstinate adherence to a con
trary notion has been the principal cause of the
want of fuccel's, experiencsd by those who have
gone before us. „
Reason and interest unite in dictating to us a
different plan. The Miscellaneous part, and
principal part, therefore, of the Philadelphia
Magazine, will conliftof choice feletfl ions trom
the neWcft publications of merit, that (hall ap
pear in Europe ; but, particularly from the va
rious perio ttcal works published in Great-Bri
tain, of which we have taken care to infur^the
very earliett supply. At the fame time, we trust
it is unneceflary to fiy, that we lhall always re
ceive with pleasure any original productions of
genius, in verfeor prose, of our own country ;
and we flatter ourselves with the hope of being
oftea favoured with the agreeable talk of giving
to such productions merited praises and cxten
five publicity.
In felcCling and arranging these materials, to
■suit the various tastes of our readers, we are sen
sible how difficult a talk we have undertaken.
To please all, we do not expe<B : it would be a
Tain preemption. But we are resolved to give
offence to none, so fir at confift9 with the supe
rior respeCt we owe to the sacred caule of reli
gion, morality, and facial order. In these are
involved the glory aad welfare of our country,
and they will always be the Pelar-ftar, that (hall
guide our l ibors.
The Miscellany will be followed by a month
ly Summary of Anus and-politics, foreign as
well as domestic ; under which head will be
comprised a succinCt account of the Proceedings
of the General and State Legislatures, and the
titles, at least, of all the law* they (hall enaCt.
The next part of our undertaking, is a Re
view, of the principal works of note puh'ifhed
in Great-Britain. For this we must neceflarily
have recourse to the Reviews of that country.
Though it will be impossible for us to furnilh as
complete an analysis as that from which we lhall
take our materials, we (hall not fail to give such
an aacount of every publication reviewed in that
country, as will c nvey to our readers informa
tion fuffieient to enable them to avail themselves
at a very early stage, of every valuable perform
ance that (hail appear. The advantages arjfing
from such information are evident. For want
of if our profeljonal men and men of taste are
always kept a year or two in the rear of those
of Great-Britain. We do not hear of a work
till a long time after it is published, and many
very valuable ones we never hear of at all. All
the various injuries and privations we fuffer
from this source will, we flatter oiirfelves, be
entirely done away by a steady adherence to our
plan.
To that of foreign, will be added a Review of
Domestic Publications; and here, we must con.
fefs, that we feel some diffidence, befaufe the
execution of the talk must depend, in a great
measure, upon the abilities of ourfelVet. How
ever, with a firm resolution to bt guided by de
cency, candour ind truth, and to take genius
and virtue by the haml, whenever, and in what
ever garb, we may find them ; with no wi(h to
wound the (Velingj ofanv but the wicked, and
with the mn# !incf)e desire of feeing our coun
trymen shine in erery department of literature,
we doubt not. that we (hall be able to acquit
curfelves tn the'fatislaflion of all those who
have the good-nature fairly to appreciate onr
motives, and the justice to make allowance for
human imperfections,
I he work will close with a monthly record
of Marriages, Births, Deaths, Promotions, and
other caiual incidents.
As to what concarns the politics of this esin
try or of Europe, at this mementous period, we
shall always view with jealousy every measure
of the French Government, and it's evera<fti.ve
emiflaries; and it in this refpeft some men con
sider us as partial or prejudiced, we Ihall submit
to their uenfure. For so full is our conviction
that the war, which now dcfolates Europe, and
menaces this country, is a war of ambition and
plunder, on the part of France, that nothing
can induce us to conceal our sentiments, Or to
withhold the /mall afliftance that we can con
tribute to oppose them. For this reason we in
tend to devote a page or two ofyevery number
to historical fails, anecdotes, and remarks on
the Politics ofFrance, from the age ef Louis
the Fourteenth so the preient more alarming e
poclu For more than a century past has that
restless and ambitious people been like a volcano
in the centre of Europe, disturbing the furround
rng Stales by its intrigues, and once in every
eight or ten years overwhelming its mofl fertile
countries with devaluation wul carnage.
Indeed it is morethan eighteen hundred years
since the gri-at Roman Orator* thought ii his
duty to warn his countrymen against that con
dufl and ihofe principles, for which theprefent
race »f Gauls are as jnftly to be dreaded as their
savage ancestors ; «« Gallis JUem Hon bahrndam,
bominibus Uvitus, perjidis, et in if/as Deos im
mortalts impiis."
By the proper management of this tepie our
countrymen wi lbe able to fee the real charades of
I the nation, which the/formerly confidercd as their
friends, but now wore justly execrate asiheir«oft
dang -rous enemies; and they will be better prepar
ed to appreciate any overtures, (hat may be made
hereafter, for the retloratioo of peace and amity
In the execution of this part of our design, par
ticularly 14 we look with confidence for the lunport
and afliftance ot all persons who Stall coafidcr eur
moti»n as laudable, and therefore wist to contri
bute to the fticcefn of our design of all whs
