With his poverty his apparent republicanism departed. " QuicquiiJ p.nn ap parel, nan est, is a very just maxim, fo.far as it applies to a cafe ©f this kind.

Committee to, whom -\vas referred a mefiage trom the Governor, reipeftiug the proclamation ot the Prettdeot of the United States, announcing that combinations to defeat the execution ol the hews tpr the va liiation of lands and d\vrliin(»>houfes, have existed in the comities of Northampton, Montgomery and Buck* ; REPORT— J hat they have had the laid message under their ierious conlideration, and find cause ot deep regret that combinations to de leat the la>vs oi the United States have a ie cond time made their appearance in the ftste ot Pennlylvania ; a* such combinations are repugnant not only to the pure principles of republicanifmandthefpiritofour canftitution but also highly dishonorable to the character of a portion of the citizens of our state. That laws tending to lay the lieavieft burthens on the mod opulent part ot the community thould be oppoled by thole on whom they c perate lighted, proves that the opposition has arisen from ignorance or the hioft dark and malignant design. Your committee cannot hefitats to ex press with the most lively fenlibility their en tire disapprobation of such unwarrantable conduit, tending to the. jliffoiutiott of our government and fubverlive of the principles of tranquility and good order, and that it is the duty of every good citizen to discounte nance such treasonable combinations. Yet as the general government has fujlicient pow er to compel obedience to their laws, and the President has in his proclamation determined so to do in this initance, and has not thought the aid ot this state neceffaryy Your committee offer the following reso lution : Resolved, That this house will, when re quired, co-ope r.atc with the,general govern ment with alacrity and promptitude to sup press unlawful and treasonable combinations to defeat the execution of the laws of the U nited States : but as noi'uch co-operation is now required, this houl'e coniider their in terference at present as wholly unnecessary. It was moved by Dr. Logan, and fecynded by Mr. Horn of Northampton, to add the following Resolution : Resolved, That the Governor bp, and he hereby is requested to cause fulj and due en quiry to be made into the cause s of the said riots, and te make special report to tlus house thereon, particularly of any circumftasces which may be alledged or discovered tending to fliow the origin of the fame in the agency of foreign iacendiaries or the l'editious views of domeflic traitors.

[ln opposition to this refolutron, it was oblcrvcd generally", that the persons guilty were amenable to the government of the U nitiid States who had and Would adopt pro per mcafures to bring the guilty to jcliice. That independent of the propriety or im propriety of such an inquiry, thr result of the resolution should be adopted, Hvoiild nioft probably end in an opinion which is now generally entertained, viz. that the persons | offending ignorant and credulous, led astray by those on whom they had placed their dependence, who were constantly tXwlain,- ingagainft the measures of the general go vernment, and indeavoring to inculcate a belief that it is corrupt and opprcllive in its administration, that taxes were raised to gratify ambit'en and fiipport a war againfl a government disposed to be a* peace with us. The protest of the minority on the ad dress to the Prtlideut of the United States, was admirably calculated to produce such ef fects, as well as the opinions, that ambafTa dors from the people were only necefiarv to effeft a general peace.
