MIU i tNMO,
IN the Aurora of Monday are the
following Arguments against the 'Election of
his, honor chief justice Mc'Kean.
TJtimier a re; ablicaf! form of gavernrntnt,
rotation in ojp.ee ought to be particularly
observed. It mult be, in general, injurious
to the puliicuitereft to retain men for Jong
Periods in authoritative stations, becaufij the
fiuni an mind is & prone to pride, to fond of
and of tlie refpeft usually paid to of
ficial character, thai it ■ is 'with difficulty,
and with deep regret, that many persons re
iigii their public fusions, after having long
F > t ff-d tliem. Ambitious men are fond of
pre-eminence', but are-not very ledulousto ac
quire a fupcriority over their fellow-citizens
by their personal virtues.—.Much art and
address is generally made life of by luch cha
raflers to acquire places of rank and confi
dence ; pofleffiod ot which feeds their vani
ty, and adds to their .ideas of- felf-corilpla-'
cency. During a long incumbency, arro
gance and insolence are acquired, and when
the individual h6?ds hi- office from the ap
pointment of one man, or only a few, he will
be careful to please and to liatter them, and
willing to act as aneeeffary too! for the pro
motion of improper or base designs, while
by flic people he is regarded as a haughty,
overbearing despot. '! o retire to private
life, to be melted down into the mass of the
community, is always dreaded by the man
who is enamoured with the charms of magis-
tracy.
But where officers are held for (lated peri
od- only, and th? appointments...prohibited
from being conftaptly the fame individuals";
the public are better served, and the duties
annexed to important Rations more ably, and
better dik barged. A spirit of emulation is.
excited in a people where the public officers
are stationary. The candidates are careful
of their characters, and endeavour by their
pitriotifm to procure the Suffrages of the
• people—When eleftions are • annual, magis
trates are generally active, and endeavour to
shine while in office ; being regularly chan
ged, they have not time to bo corrupted by
bad habits, or to be tainted with the hautfur
and pertinacity, so often the concomit
ants of men too long in power. Under mon
archies, all thivt 'ls attendant upon the lat
ter are severely felt, and in vain deplored:
But republicans ought to be aware of the dan
ger and inconvenience of cot preferring the
necelTary rotation of their national, munici
pal jor other functionaries.'

Thus by the foregoing statement it appears
that as the number of paupers mcreafed, the
quantity of articles manufactured decrcaled,
for 4 to persons in the year 1776 .did not
earn upon a nice calculation one tour.li as
much as 2jo persons earned in 1770. (1
suppose you..was a ajanager in 1770) or elie
you certainly would never have offered fucli
a comparative statement. as this, to prove the
declension of labour in the Alms-Houle, un
der the present system : you Certainly was
not in the pofleffion of common understand
ing, when you brought this » comparison"
forward, uplefs, indeed, your « mats and
points and cloatbing for the Pennsylvan.a
Hospital," was to csver the nakedneis ot
your " comp'arifoii" and make up the lee
Way of your drifting intent ; now, fir, or
madam, or whatever you are, let me offer
you a comparative statement;
In 1770, when you In 1799» °'
did more work than the present Managers
you have ever don« had only been in four
Tinifr, and which, by the FrTrr
the bye, wants some- prevented their taking

and held their offices three ol the pre f; tit
during plfafure.' Managers ,toak their
'feati at the board on
' the day after the date
> ' •' of the accounts now
io queOiOn were made
up to.
In 1770, more va- ■ In 17^, -by a late
grant? than paupers-law,vigrants a "d luch
were admitted,■betaufe -persons heretofore em
thelawdefignated that ployed in the Alms

whom are able to i* persons and -young
work. childran were alone
sdfmttcd to be proper
objefts for the care of
the w Guardians of
the poor."
Tn 1770,' two hun- In 1799, 1X un *
dred and ninety per- died and five paupers
sons were admitted to (not of the fame de
the Alms-Houfe,whe'n fcriptioa'of persons as
the population was you ignorantly aflert)
about one fourth of but all of \hem poor,
the present population needy, decrepid, in
of the city, which firm persons, not one
proves the great pro- in twenty able to do
portion of idle persons the leafl work and
sent in as vagrants, scarcely able tt> clean
and who were capable their own apartments,
of working.
Upon the slightest examination of the
foregoing comparisons, an-ihtelligent mind
will readily d.ifcover that every thing is in fa
vor of the present management. Little
more than double the number of persons are
now in the heufe than was in it during the
year 1770, although the population of the
city .has increased tour fold : and had not the
calamity occasioned by the fever been expe
rienced, I am convinced there would not
have been more than is stated to have been
in the house during the year 1770. I ihould
be glad, however, to know why you flop
ped at the year 1776, or indeed why you
went so far back. If some deep, malignant
design did not lurk at the bottom of your
" well meant address," would you have gone
farther b/.ck to I# for comparisons ".han
the period when the law placed the institu
tion upon its present footing ? As well
might you have gone to theprifon and com-
I pared the work of the hale, healthy, strong
persons employed there, as to have made a
compaiifcn between the manufaftures of
1770 and 1799. Such barefaced impositions
as these w ill never answer. It requires well
authenticated fatts to fhakethe humanity of
the citizens of Philadelphia. Bold afiertions,
equivocating, and perplexing comparisons
will v not do : and, as I before observed, your
drift is well understood by me ? and will very
focti be understood by every person within |
the city and diitrkls. Men governed l)y
such principle-, as you poffi-£;, or at least ap. j
pear to poUeft, it' I may judge _ frqtn your
writings, outfit to be very cauuoas indeed.
It is not the mnnber of piece* Which will
produce conviftimi on the citizens pofleln ig
the candor and f.irefij;ht of the people of
Philadelphia ; and I am now firmly ot opin
ion that had von fi-pped (fiort on the publi
cation of No. I. your views would have been
much better an) wired: but yc?u remind me
of an old proverbs which is fully verifyed in
you : " give a wav (I mean luch a one as
you) rope enough and he will hang lvmfeli." i
This I take for granted will be tlie "te, and !
as you have discovered so much treachery in
your romparilon, and brought forward ftute
ments upon such unfair grounds t flialt hence
forth .hold it beneath me to pursue ycu fur
ther ; under a well founded c*nvi£ion that
the present managers, as well as those for
some years back, have done evety tbii'g in
their powei 1 for the public interelt, and that
they will continue to do so 1 firmly believe.
Therefore any thing which you can offer in
future will be viewed, I trust, in the fame
light which your conduct has from the lit it
appeared to me, the' offspring ot a ma
lignant, base inveteracy agaiuft every prin
ciple of humanity and benevolence.
