I congratulate you alio on your electing (rem) y«tf rcfjiective "ceunties fede ral members to repretent you in the' State (a* us. at this ' important crisis, to fend to bur State Couneilj, men attached to the Ge nera!

My fellow citizens, notwithstanding we have happily furjnounted a great difficulty, an-J our point for the prefcnt. yet it items we have the frme work to' do over again, the fame men having declared them feN-e>, candidates at the next eledion, with the addition of a candid itc for the eledlorfliip poflefling the fnme politics. This, my fel low" farmers, will require the exertions of the friends to good order from the fhrt, who would inform the people by authentic docu ments, iii order to counteract the inipofitions which I e:;])edV will be o3cred to you by the oppofers of Government. It is by my fin ttrt belief, that every artifice will again be or to deceive you ;but I hope and trqft you will not fufter the insidious nfler tior. of ail tnti-fcdersl junto to alienate your affections from the government ofyourchoice. Among the other fa'ifehoods induftwoufly dif'-niina'ed, an of rel&bn has been brought upon the carpet—iTubjeft that I nsver heard mentioned either in Con grci. or lie where, until the demons of faft- let it afloat, with the defigiv, no doubt, oi promoting- their views ; nor can I be brought to believe, that such :I measure is 1 witiied for by any of the citizens of this 1 c ninty. The corflitution, however, of the ' Unite.il States forms an eiTefhial barrier ' n r .i'iiift such an attempt—insinuations to the ' ee.r.craiy are therefore idle, aird not worth 1 attending to. < Hut, rnv feliow citizens, it is time to fpeal plain. 1 li'ofe people, who call themfelvei democrats, at times republicans, &c. wish to overturn the government; nor would it be '°i l .' 'n my opinion, before an attempt woulc be made for that purpoft, could they fee their y vrood. T am told that a law passed the * irgv.'-ijafleinbly la ft ft fficyi, for the pur chase ot twenty thousand stand of ;rms, iii. t«naed, it is said, to be put into the hands of : i citizfns to oppose the government. : K'veuld this be the cafe, which I cannot be ■ ' , how (hocking the idea that one citizen should take up arms against another, in order p rhaps, to murt'er him and his family. I none a'-id trufi the great body of the yeoman ry ot /irginia have too much sense to be V'l.i-f' on to such enormities, to gratify any let of men, whose views are so base. For " hat c"jl 1 the jjeople promise themfrlves, if *• "•"/ t ' l "* it 'i* tbejr power to overturn ,-tjmvnt? I'hey niufl certainly ex 1* --t bother, lit to live in anarchy, which is V* ' vor(i eoiifulions. Or, can they ex j- '. to have . better government than the tf-.'i-■ i I think uot—Jthen why with for a it is fiucl by the violent oppofers of tlm the President has done wrong " Ik; has too much power, Ice. -See. U-re I nrnft reply, that the Prcfident has no cier; ]>ower than what isgiyen liim by lav/ ; iiei'ther Has he uiTunjed more ; and that the government lias been honestly and wifely •adtv.iniftred, is evident to all who mfh to be informed. This, my fci'ow citizens, is a f«A mcont/OTertible. 1 have endea vored to inform nvvfelf, while a member of Congress, of the whole of the operations of government jn'd, tmifl fay, that I know of nothing done wrong, o-attempted to 'be ' dnne wrong, hv the-adininiftr«ition ; if I had, : 1 certainly ihi.nl j have informed my confti-! tarnts. ljjis will appear evident, as I have I JU> inducement to do otl.'i wifc, :, f! lding no ! puce under government, or a wi.'h to 'hold f ,;ny_it cannot, therefore, be said that I am I ■ r eyrntive 'pitr^uage.

There has Keen a report :hough not confirmed, that Bvtor.ap,,r'.e iberty at Jerufelum. Were this true, our pious American Christians would believe that the prophetic words of Daniel were ■ literally fulfilled ; " <whtn you Jlall fee the ABOMINATION OF DKSOLATION Jlandlng irt the hnly plaee." Buonaparte writes home to the Directory a ftorjjr equally extra ordinary ar d improbable, of the .mode of the. Turks' fighting. In pitched battle, he fays they oreap on their bellies and after flingii g their hatchets pistols, &c. at the heads of the Fiench, they endeavour to cut off tkeir legs. er It is said, that Dr. Priestly fo6n intends eel to leave America for Europe. Probably, id, this, illuminaf us is disappointed hert as he ; y was at Birmingham in his avowed intention and endeavors to fire " that tram Ly -which c- he would blow up the religious e/lablilhincnts il. of his native country " Such inflammable a- mater ialifls can fcc no loss to a virtuous re (l,- public, when they depart, and no valuable re acquisition to any other country.when they re reach it. From the Alsast Ces'Tinkl. if Logan, t.ie tat-* reputed Envoy Extraordinary and Minijl r Plenipotentiary from the fratern.ty of Jacobins in this cam ,s try to the Directorial tyrants of the Great Nation, hai recently ifliied what may be e termed a republican bulletin relative to the ■ f present ttate of France j After stating that t Logan pre fen tf what is contained in the r three following paragraphs, as facts, the public may judge what degree of credibility, 1 attaches to his jlerformance in the groli : i " France, from an ahiblute monarchy, has . become a free, representative republic." . "In the AfTembly of Fjve Hundred, arid ■) alfo-that of the Anciepts, the greatcft order . an< i regularity was preserved in all their dtli s Iterations." - " Atprefent no government in Europe is . more firmly ertabliflied, more ahly achniniltred, > or better calculated to promote the genera) [ hippinefsof its citizens than that of, France." If France is '.\free, representative republic, . all the ideas which have been entertained of , * ree repretentative systems, art erroneous in . the extrejpe ; the freedom which hai lately been witnessed there, is the suppression ofe very newspaper which has dared to comment . upon the proceeding's of the Directory in a' manner warranted by* nth and fads. With re fpeft to the freedom of its representation. the Dire£fory has violated every principle of tranclufe, by expelling from the Councils the deputies returned by the majo rity, and banished thfm, even without the form of a trial, to the regions of sickness and death. As to order and regularity being preserved in their Aflembly of Five Hun dred, and Council of Ancients, let the reader retrofpeft the details which have been giv en in the French and translated in the A- - meriean papers, of the proceedings of those bodies, and judge what fort of order and re gularity has prevailed in s//theirdeliherations: Theinftaneesheremertionedare few I —an hun dred others, of similar import, might be rc forted to, which would Jjut the {lupid jac'o- 1 bin to the blurh, if all fenft of (haint bad not i Been blotted from the minds of those who .

What an afhonifliing aberration from truth is this 1 'tis btot a (hort time since the financial d«- partment announced t6 the Direftory, that hut a small proportion of the amount of the last affeffinent of t=>xe« had been collefted- v that many functionaries of the Republic" remained unpaid, &c. & c . in (hort, that the of the pyblic suDds was alarming - to the highest degree—& this, notwithftand mg the mod odiou?, the molt oppressive, and the moll complained of taxes tinder the monarchy had been resorted to- Logan represents travelling as .perfeßly fafe in France, that tranquility reigns there, and that fueh is the refpeß for the Laws, that P the fields of the farmers are not enclosed, yet property is hddfacred.; and even tit exten- ~ five gardens in the neighbourhood of Paris abounding with the most defictnus fruit and ve getables, are free from plunder. The Jaco bin who can swallow fuck a dose as this, mult have a gullet large enough to take in a gu:Hotine, executioner, sua all among fame of the most recent proceedings of the French powers that be, is a report on the cc alarming state to which robbery and plunder, as well a sail a ffin at 3 on, have arrived In there public, and mes Cures were carneftly recom mended to check the growing evils. Logan rep relents the character of Merlin one of the French Tyrants, as amiable and exemplary. Merlin was one of the co-pa triots of Robespierre— one of the butchers of Louis the iGth—one of the adors in all tiie drownings, footings; ikrving, guilloti .iufo ||d other modes ofn.afecre, which ren-' uered 1' ran a- a clntrnel-houfc—and vet Me,: - n 15 *s&*** by this Jacobs as'an cmla. ih afid ex.cmpb.irj character.
