" declaration of our Execu
tive, on the return of the Amencan En
voys from France, has umted all Europe
but the people of Germany ,n
even to ads gree of enthusiasm. I hey lay_
th.t the caul'e Is uoble, to onpofe a nation of
savages, who wilh to oppress and enslave the
mofl virtuous people on earth. and whose on
ly crime is daring to alk for justice from the
created monster that ever reared its head.
Such sentiments have raised the Emperor,
voluntarily, the greatest and moll power
ful army that Germany ever supported,
in consequence of which, and the progress
of n.ooo Ruffians, who are already in Uer-
Oitny on their way to the Rhine (being;a
part of 80,000 which the Emperor of Rus
sia fends against the French) the D.reftory
have ordered large drafts from their forces
in Holland, which leaves an opening for the
rebellion, which is hourly expend to be
come general throughout the Batavian Re
public: the people of Brabant have already
revolted, and are in. rcat force ; some aft.-
ons have taken place between them and the
French. The people of Holland are 111 the
nl oft cJreadful itate of distress imaginable:
their filhermen, watermen, and all those who
gained their bread by the sea, are abfolute
jy starving ; the Englilh prevented the neu
trals from going into Hollanu, and even a
fifhing boat from getting to sea, 3iid their
friends the French oppressing them by re
quifrticnn, the people are driven to perfed
madness."
On the Jiftof this month there was a
flight of Snow at Philadelphia. Here it
fiuwed all the forenoon of the 24th, and
more snow fell than has in the fame space
of time during the winter.

What generous pride, what patriotic joy
mud dialate the bosom of every friend to
government on thisdeciiive vi&ery? Who
that venerates the holy religion of his fa
thers? Who that wishes to continue under
the fafeguard of wife arid wholesome laws?
Who that deprecates the horrors of that de
moralizing, brutal, and execrable system of
French Liberty, which has been propagated
with such demonic zeal throughout the
the world? Who that is indujlrous, virtuous
and happy, that docs not feel his heart eased
of the heavy burthen that had long oppres
sed it? Yes, our country is not loft ! France!
your detestable schemes—your hopes of ra
pine and bl'od are all frujirmed. Levellers',
you must still be in obfeurity, and feel the
gripe of that poverty which your idfe'iefe
and your vices have brought upon you—
Enemies of the government! you are wretch
edly mistaken—you must bite the lip in
impotent rage—your reign s no more.
Friend Edward ! you fee the fate that awaits
you. Take a friends advice, and give out
as early as poflible your intentions of declining
to Hand the test of another Ele&icn
Friends of the Government, of a fettled and
permanent state of things, we congraulate
you on the favourable iflue of this decisive
fteuggle.—-Merchants of New York you
have done your duty.—Citizens of every
class and profeffion, who have contributed
your aid in placing in the feats of legislation
men of integrity and worth, you may now
■wear the honorable badge of Federalism,
your aftivity deserves much pride, and gu
aantees of the future fafety of aged
ftres. This is a proud day of all Americans.
L<t it be long remembered, and when it re
curs to memory let it teach the friends of
government that their enemies can never tri
umph but when they areinadtive andfapine.
William B. Cile.r, of Virginia, is ele&eda
member of the legislature of that State.
His talents and malignant hatred to Gov

disappointment and chagrin have led him
to retire from th<- floor of Congress, where
his means <-f mifchief were more extensive.

More French lies detected.
The French writer in the Argus of this
morning, when they rqnv* to of our
glorious eleftion ot yesterday, appear poli
tivcly to write under the tortures oi damn
ed spirits. As the only confohtion to which
fucli wretches can resort, they betake them
selves to their usual occupation of mifrepre
letatiori and abule. Among other things
they insert the following paragraph :
" The .turpitude of one tranl'aftion, calls
loudly for the most pointed reprobation, if
true, that prisoners were taken out of the
bridewell, and federal tickets being placed in
their hands, they were brought up to the
poll tdgyote."
Take the fad—One of the prisoners in
the Bridewell who it i'eems is sometimes in
dulged with the liberty of being out of doors
in the day time, had been sent by some of
his'comrades to a little (hop near the place
where the poll was held, to buy some rum ;
here he was met by on? Charles Van Norden,
who attended the poll as one ot the French
Bullies, and a vote being put into his hand
for the democratic ticket, be was lomehow
huftied alonji; by this man to the place of
voting ; jull as lie was entering the street
door, however, he was luckily met by Mr.
John M'Call, keeper of the Bridewell,-
whose spirited exertions yesterday, entitled
him to much applaule, who demanded of
Van Norden what lie had to do with one ot
his pril'oners, and represented the meannels
and indecency of endeavoring to procure
a vote froir, a criminal : but was not
till after some conliderable altercation, he
succeeded in getting the man away without,
his voting at all. And now the federalifts
are with great propriety charged from the
press, with bringing up prisoners from the
Bridewell to vote !
There's nothing like plain Matter o?
tlile fellows ; it choaks them as
suddenly and as effectually as a knot under
the left ear. [Com. ad.]

Extract of a letter from Liverpool > 23 d
" The {hip Molly, of this portj is ar
rived at Liverpool, after having beat off
three French privateers, at- three differ-
ent times."
Durnnd Maillane, said, four years ago,
in the French Convention, that " already
bad tbe corruption of manners, augmented
by the abuses of tbe Revolution, inundated
the Republic with thieves and mufderei-s"
As they, have been progrelfing and encreaf--
ing ever fir.ee in these lucrative profcUions,
may we not by thiotiirie, without a figure of
speech, rate them a nation of lavages ?
Democracy on its last legs.-
The populous and important commercial
city of New-York, hasat length retrieved it's
character, too long loft in the predominance
of a faction compofcd of the most depraved
and loathibme wretches, that ever polluted a
civilized community. The. expuliion of the
stock-jobbing bankrupt, Burr, is a memento
nwri to the Adonis, and the reft of his in
famous family. In Georgia, a fpi-rited and
able Federalist (JudgcWalton) hasahfolutely
earthed the Democratic Fox, Jackson, and
bids fair to (cutter the forces of his contorts.
The Virginian phalanx is routed and broken
and even Polyphcemus, the bell-wether of
the gang, hobbles forwaid to his feat, the
" faithful public servant" of j8 constituents.
We may now cheerily apply the " nati ur
lioribus annis" of the Poet in a new sense.
The prosperity of the common cause in other
dates, (houlil animate us to exertions worthy
of our important stake, and of which we
have so laudable an example set before us.
To (lamp upon that abominable monster who
is afpirihg at a ftatiou among us where he
may the more securely prowl around the state,
reeking-whom he may devour, the impression
of public indignation, abhorrence and con
tejnpt, would be a death-wound to the cause
and the influence of France in America.
Gallatin, the French patriot, from making
nails, has commenced a manufaftory of fire
arms. Thus verifying the remark of Dr.
Johnson,
" All sciences a fafting monfienr knows,
And bid him go to hell to hell he goes."
We "hear that two thousand Ranch of arms
are to be furnilhed the Commonwealth from
the manufaftory at New Geneva, and that
Albert took eare to get his money betimes.
It is said the fettlenjent of a well-known
and difg raced Paymaster's accounts, would
have a very sickly cftedi 'upon two pair of
fine horses, a coachee and chariot. Vive la
souverairfk'c du fieuple.
The hurry duke Albert was in 'to get his
money for the fire-arm?, is an indication of
suspicions of the (liort duration of the occa
sion for them. It were odd, indeed, if a man
(hould not know the progress of his own
works ; but what are we to think of the
Excellence that connived at so groOs a depre
dation ton the public ?

The following is an accurate state of the
Virginia Eleftion for Members of Congress:
FEDERAL RETURNS.
Citizens Nicholas, Dawfon, Egglefton,
Clay, New and Cabell, re-ele£ted. Randolph,
vice Venable.
There will be, iff the next Congress, on
the mott moderate computation, seventy odd
Federal members.
Citizen David Holmes is re-eletted.
A letter from the district reprel'ented in
the last congreis by Mr. Machir, dated on
the morning of the election, confirms what
have already dated of the prospect of Major
Haymond's success.
The diftrift mif-reprefentedby Holmes, is
as federal as any in the ftate->~and there is a
profpeft of that mifsrable tool's obtaining
leave of absence for the two enfSing years.
The diftrift reprel'ented by J. Trigg is the
only other from which the returns vet re
main to be received. Here there is little
liope of any amendment.

The following invocation to .Marcus
Brtitus, extracted from a Tenneflee ga
zette, is - the • unguarded production of
one of. those enthusiastic young fry of treach
ery that providence sometimes fends into ex-
igence to mar villainy, anddevelope the' hid
den machinations of fai\ion. Thisyouthful
traitor tells a bold tale, with an undaunted
countenance. Hedoes not,iike Harmodious
and Ariftogiton conceal his murderous wea
pon in wreathes of myrtie, but like the more
audacious Grachus brandiihes it in the capi
tal. Will any perion I'uppofe after perusing
the Democrat"that the ideasand sentiments
therein contained, are not familiar and com
mon to the whole circle of his associates ; to
:he body of M'Laughlins fubferibers ; and
indeed to the chief of the inhabitants of that
seditious quarter of the union : would he
not othervvife tremble to avow them ? incau
tious as he is, would he be content to become
the solitary viftim of his own solitary, iilly,
and treasonable opinion ? Never : No, no,
he is confident that every wretch who rnoil
tens his lips with the waters of Tennefiee is
intoxicated with the fame blood craving ma
nia, Assassins lot• m round his daily haunts,
ripe for tre--tfr.n, flratagem and crime, were
they but affined of impunity. Bui though
they pant for the blood of Adams, Well
ington and ever}' wife and virtuous mtu in
thecommunity ; yet they teach their tongues
concealment and endeavor by democratic fi
neffe, by fallchood, intrigue, and probation
ary outrage to bring 011 the harvest of their
wilhes. They play round the flame of l'cdi
tion but are very cautious how they linge
their wings. On the contrary, this revolu
tionary fanatic not being so well read is those
matters relative to the fafety of his party as
he appears to be in its sentiments and princi
ples fiercely hurls defiance into the very teeth
of the constituted authorities and the laws
of his country : Calls for " daggers" feletts
his viftims, and chuckles with lavage plea
sure as he fees them, in imagination, " dag
ger" beneath his blows. Thus, by trusting
to a muse-struck murtherer the fatal secret,
all their views and expeditions are complete-
ly unmasked. The Northampton insurrec
tion was too early for their purpose ; and
this canibal song is conlidered by them a»
premature ; but in both we fee evidences of
the fame spirit ; the tendency of both is the
fame, to " difanpul the constitution" and to
deluge the country in blood. Whether this
unadvised devulgenient of their friend will
haflen the execution of their plan is difficult
to forefee ; but at all events, the friends of
government (hould be prepared for the worst.
To have an official head is necessary to the
effettual organization of the Democrats of
Pennsylvania : give them this and their co
operation 'with their brcthreii of Tennessee
will immediately follow. They will then
without blush or rcmorfe acknowledge their
purpose, and perhaps execute it before the
ina&ive inhabitants can be brought to believe
there are such fiend-like beings in exigence.
Men, therefore, who regard their lives and
property as worth preserving, ihould labour
night and day to secure to themlelves a Go
vernor at the next ele&ion, whole vigilence
and refcilution will shelter them from the
Itorm of anarchy which, if it should Ijiurft
upon us, no. regrets can appease, no prayers
deprecate.
