F;-oitr the Tmitbn Federa lift, of July 8.
At tire townftnp of ■ A., in the county of
B. in the state of New-Jeriey, the citizens
met on the 4th day of July, 1799, to cele
brate the Independence of the United' States
of America day, on which the Ameri
cans took their- e.qun.l station among the
powejscf the earth ; a day from which tht'
Americans have progressed with a profperitj
and happiness unequalled under any other
government fincethe commencement of time;
•and a day, which promises to be more me
morable among pofteTity than the day of the
foundation of Rome. After expfefling fen
timelits of admiration gratitude and piety
for the pa ft, they held a converfatiftj' of en
quiry what would be- the proper measures in
I future for perpetuating their independence,
which they deemed their honor, and for
maintaining their general government, to
which they Rooked as to a rock for support
and fafety ; when an old man, at the request
of all preTcnt, rose up and delivered the fol
lowing matters, to which every one in. the
company assented with three cheers.

i. J=!in Adams, George Waihington,
Timothy Pickering, and such officers, who
have and who do wifely ad'minifler the excel*
lent constitution of the United States of
America, and who have and who do firmly
protest America ag-;\inft France.
2, May the Congress at their next Mee
ting cleciapr war against France.
3. War with France is the cotirfe cjf fafe
ty for America ; but peace with France is
die delusive coiirfe of America, to certain
injury and to eventual ruin.
4. 1 here fire only two a els of Congress
neciffiry for the prosperity of America : the
firft, Ad afl declaring war againO France;
the second, an aft Banishing forthwith all
French Jacobins out -of America into
France.
5. France can injure America more by
difleniinating among the Americans her
principles of atheism and of anarchy than by
her arms r 1 herefore the- Americans ought
to wage in opinion a perpetual war against
French principles; and ought to give Jaco
binical Principles no quarters.
6. Thf Fre.nc'i Jacobins until they are
exported/ from America to France, ought
to pay double the taxes which the Federalifls
pay.
, 7« Thr Americawj ought to exclude all
French "Jacobins from Office and from
giflation.
8. Infamy and contempt to all men in A
merica, who, whether on ofheial or legisla
tive floors, in occult foflietie&, at convivial
entertainments, or in social conversion, dif
fufe the French or Jacobinical principles of
Atheifra and- Anarchy.
9. The principles of French Jacobinism
fhould'Be prevented'from taking effefk in A
merica, or- should be destroyed therein, o
therwifa America will not only be greatly
injured, but' will be finally ruined.
10- Any French envoy who shall come
to America to cajole and deceive the Amer
icana, and who fhail sow sedition among
them should find a fu£sci»ncy of earth and
water at the bottom of a deep American
well.
11. Let Americans fight against Franct,
trulling in God and themfeivea, and France
cannot injure them.
12. Strength and viflory to the Ameri
can navy ar.d army against France.
13. May the armed ships of France, when
they look towards America, meet Truxton'*.
14. May every French jacobin in Ameri
ca pay annually for the single article of his
jacobinical faith,, a tax at lcaft nf one hun

armed ships to war against France-
15. May every statesman of America,
may every warrior of America, and may the
hand of every American man, be against
France. Moreover, may every man of every

American or the weft, who rises up. either

'J O'er the. dry fmocth '
will contribute, liiieraHy, both to profit ants
pleasure. At that dubious . hour, wJw the'
" glimmering landscape fades on the fight.,
and nil the air a folcmn stillness holds,'* the
mind is generally docile to the lessons of Rea
son, or ilivc to the imprefTtons of Fancy.
Even the autterity of metapphyiical morals
has allowed thatCaftle building is no vicious
employment, Sis the aerial aichitc£U of this
fpreies of ftrndiurc, will discover, i» their,
twilight walks, excellent materials forthofe
•• houses not built with bands." Evening is
the nurse of thoughts ; and whether it be
lively, oi serious, the aid and foftering care it
receives from evening are the fame. The
gloom of twilight, it is aveired by an excel
lent judg* t
well the thduhtful, Or unthinking mini! :
The mind contemplative, with Tome new theme
Pregnant, or indrfpofed alikt to all."
Nor are the advantages of an evening's
excursion confined within narrow bounds.
The man of business and the philosopher, as
■well as the idler and poet, will find an hour
or two after fimfct, *ioft propitious to their
rei'pedUve vocations. Tlie ahfcnce of glar
ing light, the Monotonous note of night
bird*, the l«w hum of the " village train"
to reit, the "village cock, counting
niirlit/s watcher to his dames," all
facilitate thr progrtfs of contemplation.
Whatever..-ges us to be economical of
t.nie is salutary ; and a bn(y man of the
world, who well knew value, enjoins
upon his pupil an attention to minutes and
quarters of hours.- There are' certain por
tions of the day which we ye obliged to
negleft. The time qi. repose i-s mere obli
vion. In tht morning when we firft awake,
our minijs., like our eyes, are hajf fhur;
and immediately after dinner, man inclints
to ftupidi.ty and sleep, rather than to a<f>ion.
To mafiy-perfons of Ttfftk'ltneis,- levity; "and
proffer diffipution, twilight js a dull and
awkward iii-eerval, which they carclefs to'
improve, and 2ealous to deftrov. Through
the dim obfeurity of an evening hour, I have
difiernrd more woful faces, than even or.
rainy or t'aft days. Infield of .greeting the
eve as a staid matron, :v.id a gentle friend/
they have viewed her as h.hideous hag, whom"
it was lawful, Wary mode to destroy.
Now I think I lhall render some service to
this class of charatttrs, Sf I can perfuadt
them that a dusky hour n::.y be a very valu
able ene ; that it has no lead about it ; aiid
that if they will go out, like the patriarch,
and meditate at the eventide, they will find
it one of the mo, II profitable portions of the
diiy. The time is not .so dark, .but clear vi
liofi may be enjoyed of many glorious and
beautiful objefts. " The stars, that pave
fteaven'sgolden floor;" the foftened afjied
of riliftg monns ; the gorgeously ruddy and
jjurple clouds of the " drooping weft the
brilliant twinkling of the luminous fire fly ;
white vapor from watei remote, and the
" umbtr'd fa; e" of every mountain and val
ley ; theft are finer fights than any in paint
ed theatres, or a wax woilt mufcum. Noi
is' the " delight of the eyes" the only grati
fication. Where that moonlight, so vivid
ly described by Shakespeare, " lleeps f>veet
ly on the bank," we may fit
■»" And let the founds of Music
Creep in our ear>."
Above all, we may ext-rcife all the powers
of the foul, and " think down vrars to n-.o
ments."We may enter upon " high thoughts
abstruse," or roam through all the fairy
scenes of imagination. We may refle£l ufe
fully on the pa.fl, and plan judiciously for
the future. To this, seriously and rever
ently, must be added, that duty, pious grat
itude, the gravity and Hillnefs of the hour,
as though a general_orifon was heard, and
Nature was on her knees, will all conspire
to make our better though <s rife to him, tA
whom the duskiness of twilight and the blaze
ofnoon are equal; who kindleih, and " fea

At dinner, tl-.e ceremcnies were regulated
by the Hon. Jeremiah Wadfworth as Pre
lident, ai:d the Hon. Chauncy Goodrich as
Vice-Prefident. The company separated by
five P. M. and the whole tranfa&ions of the
day, in-every department were finilhed in a
decent", ordered and becoming manner. No
riots, no-wrangling, no dithirbance, no acci
dent intervened, to lessen the rational fcfti

anniversary. The eye could scarcely light

any such remain amongfl us, they confined
themselves to their own clajk society, and
vented their pointless ill-nature in fccret.
