the folcr.iii ;i'j.i.s of the CanUitutioti,
but from .the iraprnant an:! diftin_;u;fhed
benefits, which iiace flowed'from tbofe lit
erary fountains, The Christian Religion is
the grand basis of public and private virtue.
Whi!' we'lament the introdu&ion of rpodern
phibfi.phy, the spreading of atheistical prin
ciples, and th? consequent decline of religious
woribip, we fully accord with your honor,
that it is our incumbent duty to support,
maintain and extend those public institutions
of Religion, so dear to our pious ancestors,
and which we jufUy estimate, as the founda
tion of our national glory and public happi
liefs.
The slate of the Tre a fury is grateful to our
feelings, and honorable to the financial po
licy of our predeceflors. The promotion of
the arts and sciences which adorn apd im
prove, and the encouragement of agriculture
and commerce, which enrich a nation, are
certainly important objetts of legislation.
To revile and to. adapt our laws to the pre
fetit improved (late of our country,, will con
tinue to be the l'ubjeft of our attention.
While we contemplate with pleasure, the
tranquil and happy situation of this Com
monwealth, we cannot forget' that our fu
ture profperity-.in a great measure depends
under God,, upon our own exertions. Our
Federal Conftitiition was tlie result of a com
mon sense of public danger, and of a gener
al conviflion of the total infufficiency
of our old confederation. In its forma
tion it was the work of the whole Ame
rican people—ln its execution it has been
upheld by their virtue, and supported by
their affection. In its principles, ,lt wh-,
therei'iw naturally mild, fate and equal. In
its adir.lninrition, it has been uniformly
wife, patriotic and efficient. If there have
b.en any deluded citizens who have looked
upon the Federal Government with a jealous
and with a j iundiced eye,—if they have re
garded as a foreign power the common .ruar
dian of our national rights, their numbers
mud at this moment be too inconsiderable to
be dangerous. We regret that any part
humiliating events in our country, should
have rendered such remarks pecefrary, but
we are h;.-jpy in the full convi&ion, that tne
American people are fad returning to a jud
sense of their national charafter.
Wi'hout fpii-it Nations, like individuals,
■will be trampled upon.—Without a just and
becoming sense of National Gharatler. we
fully agree with your Honor, that we Ihould
soon become tributaries, as we have long
been the objefts of the rapine and law
less plunder of a Foreign Nation. Inter
nally we mud cultivate a spirit of obedience,
and cheerful support to the laws, and to
those who adminifler them ; for no axiom in
politics is better founded than the one ad
vanced by your Honor, that to counteraft or
calumniate the measures of the Federal or
State Constituted Authorities, is a diredl: and
alarming blow, aimed at the Sovereignty of
Bie People themselves,
Any comnuinicatious which" may be made
from the Chair, will merit our refpett, and
fliall receive our serious and deliberate cor.si-
deration.
The a(Turanee which your Honor has been
plea fed ti make, that irt such appointments
as fliall unavoidably devolve upon you, in the
eouri'e of the present year, you f \yill have a
view only to the public-good l merits our
highest approbation. ]f fair characters, pure
morals, tried patrictifm, and competent abi
lities, fliall be the only recommendations to
office, the Magistrates of Massachusetts,
will in truth, " become a terror to evil do
ers, and a praise and encouragement to such
as do well."

If ever this country is conquered by France
or, which is the fame thing republicanized
(according to the meaning attached to this
word, by our exclusive patriots) and brought
under her councils, it will be owing to in

party opposed to the army and navy, and not
by a fair and open contest of arms, superior
courage and resources.
Let us do nothing ; let us tie upon our
ears ;-let us Creep into our shell ; was the
perpetual cry of Gallatin, Nicholas and
Giles. There never was, and never will be,
but one sure way of obliging a powerful na
tion to act honestly ; and that is, by. armed
preparations, to relist her unjust pretensions,
and oppose with effect force to force.
Carnot speaking of the liberty of con
science, and the profs,-iii his reply to Bail
lcitl's report ; observes " I have often made
these observations to the Directory, but it
would have been, as easy to have persuad
ed the Grand Turk to have opened bis
Seraglio, to all the youth of Constantinople,
as to have persuaded them, to havegiven free
dom to religion and the press." " Our Re
publican Directorshe adds page 49,' wish
to fee France one huge political inquisition,
or vast cymetery of living fouls, like the
prisons of Genoa, upon the gate of -which,
was written through derision, the word
Libertas."
A captain, belonging te this [aid to
be a Frenchman, Hates, in a letter to his
owner, publilhed a few days since, that he
had heen captured by the French, and car
ried in—that they had treited him politely ;
and in fliort, that he Cannut say too much in
their praise. To hear a plundered man
founding forth the praises of his plunderers,
is something truly curious ; and, one would
think, must excite no very high idea of the
means by which he came in a fituatiou to ex
perience all this politeness.

, The credulity of many has been put to
the test in accounting (or a phenomenon
which is dated to have taken place in Bed
ford ceunty. Near to the Snaky Spring, a
race has been cut throigh a.piece of meadow
out the fides of which there lias lately iff'i
ed, at seven or eight (Jifterent tiroes, a quan
tity of matter which beie a strong tefsm
blance to blood. This lingular circum
stance, which had been exaggerated by re
port was viewed by the fupei ftitious as por
tentcus of some impendirg evil. A gen
t'eti an of this place wrote to the owner of
the land enquiring into the reality of the fa&
to which he received lhe following answer :
" At different, the amount of eight times
and at so many different places, red matter
preciflly the appearance ©f Blood has issued
forth oat of a race which I have to convey ■
the water into ray meadow where there was
never, to my knowledge, a spring rose be
fore. The red matter is about as thitk as
the Blood, out of the vein of an ox ; it has
been feeu to boil up above the furface of the
water more than an inch, and continue from
oive to ten minutes, and the water afterwards
bore every appearance of Blood for two or
three hours. I had caught some of the mat
ter, and kept it in a bottle, three or four
days ; but ever} hour it became more pale,
and therefore not worth'fending. T have
given you a short history of literal fadts, and
you will please to think of* it as you may
deem meet. lam tired of making conjec
tures."
