APPROACHING election.
To the Eleftors of Pen/ifylvania.
THE perlonal objections made against
Mr. Rofs, are—
ift. That he encouraged the spirit of hos
tility to the excise law. which terminated in
the infurreclion of < 794.
2d. That he is in principle a deist, and
fcas contemptuously reviled the chriflian re-
ligion.
And 3d. That he has been a landed spe
culator.
The republican committee, after having
attempted to repel the'charge of jaCobinism
from their candidate, fay. " On this (core
let the lioneft members of the federal party
examine the condud of the oppolingicandi
date, antecedently to the disturbances of
1794, in the western country."
As more fcnadalous insinuations could not
have been made, it is worthy only of the subtle
meaimefs of a Dallas, or the baser cowardice
of a Core ; it is an attempt to give a (tab to
Mr. Rofs's charader, from which 110 purity
could (hield him, and which scarcely any in
nocence could cure ; it intimates that he was
a traitor, without designating the condud
** V'i->
which is alledged to have made him so, and
without thereby enabling his partizans to
di (prove the accusation ; and while a bound*
less field of calumny is opened for the ma
lice ef his enemies to range in, suspicion is
instilled into the bosoms of his warmest
friends.
The afTertion that Mr. Rofs was un
friendly to the excise, may poflibly be tr"f-
This tax certainly operated -with peculiar
hardship upon the irtrffern country, and as
evem some degree bialfed by the
- local interefls ot the diftrid in which he re
sides, so the federal candidate may, from
this cause, have been opposed to the original
formation of the Jaw. It is impossible too,
that when men maintain the independence
of their charaders, they should, in all re
fpeds agree, even though the principles up
on which they generally ad are precifelv
-limilar, and although no citizen of Pennsyl
vania has adhered with more., firmnefs and
reditude to the general system adopted by
our government than Mr. Rof:, yet he may,
| without any deviation from his consistency,
have thought this measure i 111 palitic and im
proper. But it is fa id that Mr. Rois en
couraged the spirit of mfurredion, and de
clared, " that he would willingly undertake
the defence of any man who fliould kill an
excise officer."
The eleftion committee, in their insolent,
impotent and malicious address to the mayor
of this city, fay, " that the recital of con
versation unqualified and unexplained by the
concomitant circunjftances, can only tend to
eradicate and deftioy the few remaining
traces ot confidence and hilarity in private
■"Jjfe." If ever there was a cafe to which
this observation applies, it is that now be
fore us; for when this conversation is quali
fied and explained by the concomitant cir
cumflances, it becomes perfe&ly innocent
and harnilefs. Mr. Brackcnbridge, who
certainly is not friendly either to Mr. Rols
or '" s P°l'tics, has fmce publicly ft;ited, that
t ie words which really "were used, fell merely
in jcrt ; that upon the application of some
roan who had been guilty of an unlawful op
pohtioh to the excise, to know whethsr Mr.
ojs trould undertake his defence, the latter
replied, " why if jou bad Hilled an excise j
' I would see that you vjere legally
a "Xcdfor itand that the fellow was so
much mortiied at his reception, that he im
mediately retreated.
But even it the federal candidate had ac
tua 5 °e' cn the counsel for the murderer of
an excise officer, upon what principle would
[" ''" Ks inculpate him ? If it be criminal
to be of counsel for assassins, is it less so to be
the defender of traitors? And Mr. Dallas
»as undertaken the defence of all those who
avc cen tried for treason iince the revolu
tion.
II Mr. Rofs had been guiltv of an illegal
ppo ition to the exrife, is it probable that
general Wafliingion would have appointed
him at f 0 critical a junfture, to the office of
aliaymg. the f erment he hatl ajriffcd tQ
1 t . Is it possible to suppose, that he who
was lo well acquainted with the situation of
"la-rs throughout the Union, could have
ignorant of the charafters of these whom
"was a )out to entrufl at so important a
7™ f ° in, P° rtant » ? Is it
y t iat Mr. Hamilton would have omitted
f ( . r ,"' Cnt "l n Cr '">inality on the part of a
wherein°i United S . tates , in the report
dufl e | IC P o,ntedl y reprobates the ton
had A I" 1 ? influeinial characters, who
feHit tbemfelves by a virulent and !
it be'her ° P S°v tio " t0 tl,e tax ? Alld j
i*vedl>y a single rational man, that
NL'MMK IX.
any ground exists for the accusation since
the late president publicly recommended in a
ipecch to cpngrefs, the whole behavior of
the federal candidate during the rebellion ?
But with what propriety dots this atro
cious calumny come from' those who still
make the unpopularity ot the excile, one of
their principal engines for calling odium up
on our government ? If the manner in which
this tax is collected, be hostile to liberty and
the rights of the people surely Mr. Roi'sV
opposition to it was highly commendable.
How great mult be the impudent hypocrisy
of the men, who themselves promoted and
carried on the infurre&ion ; whom Mr. Rofs
then treated with the contempt and detella
tion due to their crimes; who well know
that he was one of their moll vigorous and
fuccefsful opponents; and who now dare to
charge him with the infamy of being an ac
complice in their own guilt ?
It is fnid that he was elefted a frnator by
the repulalicart interest in the legislature, and
that it was not until after his ele&ion, that
he became a. member of the federal party.
The afTertion is peremptory declared to be
falfe. Mr. Rofs has always been a firm friend
to the fyllem adopted by our adinintftrution;
when hewaschofen senator, the democratic
influence in the legislature, was but trifling-.
Perceiving that there was no profpeel of
success, if they fixed on a candidate «f their
own fa&ion, the weftcrn members resolved
to lupport a federalift who came from their
own country, and the contell at the time
of the election was purely local; their ob
je£t was not to carry a man of their own
party, but from their own diftrift ; and had
Mr. Rofs then been a jacobin, hp certainly
would not have hien elefted.
jf
The feconi charge alledged against him,
is, that he is a deifl, and has conteniptuowlly
ridiculed the christian religion, 'l'his accu
sation has been Completely dilproved by liie
certificates lately pnbliHied from his n'c la
bours and iitimate friends. Those certifi
cates contain all the evidence which the i'ulP
jeel admits of.
If he had been in tWc impious practice of
reviling the Chriilian faith, it inufk have been
known to those with whom lie wasmoft in
timately conneded, and as the persons who
have given their teflimor.ies on this occasion,
have risen to the eminent flatious they now
hold in their church, at leafir by the appear
ance of superior ptety and virtue,lt is iiflt to
be fuppnfed that they would have difiob'ed
; themselves ofthegarb of fandity, which they
had before worn, by fupportwig the clidion
of a profligate fcoffer at religion. The ac
cul'ation has never beca lupported by any o
ther proof, than the annonymous aflertions
of the Aurora calumniators. More than a
month has e.lapted since the fad was denied
in the Philadelpia Gazette, and the authors
called on to produce their proofs. This, they
have been unable to do, and surely no ra
tional mail' will longer give credit to this,
abominable and ridiculous fallhood. From
nu men, however, would a charge of this
kind have come with a worse grace than from
the partisans of Mr. "M'Kean, for in tliu
Convention which framed the State Coil ft.
he seconded a motion for making tlif denial wt
the being of a God, the only religious diujuali
fication to office, and for firiktng out a fclaufe
whereby a dilbelief in a future (late of re
wards and punilhments would have created
the fame incapacity. *Min. Con. p. 115
So that even in his opinion, tht prtwndtd
deism of Mr. Rois would be no<iuil reason
for opposing his eledion. From what
however, does this zeal for
christianity arise, whp have hi
therto uniformly opposed and vilified it, who
liave printed and zealously circulated the
works of Paine. Godwin, and all tlie deifti
cal philosophers of the aj;r; vho 'fiave ap
plaud jd all the blafpht*m<fus decrees of the
trench Convention, and fandioned all the
hellilh abominations of the Ftejich revolu
tion ; and who haves Co latefy supported the
eledion of a m-in, to tbe Presidential Chair,
who is notoriously ho Fide to the very exig
ence of any religious faith among the peo
ple ?
The las} charge against- Mr. Rofs, is, that
he has been engaged in landed fpetuUtiou ;
I have had na opportunity of thoroughly
ascertaining the truth or falfhood of this
accusation, but admitting that he his enter
ed into fpcculativc contra As is it even al
-1 edged that he has not fu!!y Complied with
them all? The spirit of speculation is inju
rious only when it produces the effeftswhich
it has done in the cafp of one of the mem
bers of the jacobin committee ; when it de
flroys private credit, prostrates national cha
ra&er, and saps the foundations of morality
and virtue, by forming engagements which
it is totally unable to comply with. While
the private pursuits of men are inconsistent
neither with law nor honesty, the public
have no right to examine or censure them ;
and the molt rancourous foe to Mr. Rofs's
ele&ion, is challenged to produce a single
in fiance of unfairnefs in any one of his tranf-
adions.
COMMUNICATION.
Among other arguments ufeil by the
Aurora in favour of Mr. M'Kean'selection,
is his love "for the Qaakers. As a proof of
hit friendlliip for them, take the following
fa ft :
During the exigence of the test law, Mr.
Norris Jones, a Quaker of great relpefta
bility, was summoned to serve as a juror.
By that law all who had not taken the oath
of xllegiance were incapacitated from serving
on juries, from voting, and from enjoying
mod of the other privileges of titiienlhip.
In obedience to the fumnions, however, this
gentleman attended the court, and stated his
disfranchifement. Mr. M'Kean ordered him
to take the oath, which he declared hit con
science compelled him to refufe. The Chief
Justice again commanded him to take the !
oath, which was again refufed ; whereupon j
this unhappy oljjeft of jptliujl tyranny was
lentenced to in a jail for several
months. It will be observed that the inca
pacity' occafio;ied by the ted aft was the
penalty prescribed for a refufal to take the
oath ot a!!e?;iaßcc", power was vested in
the judges to compel any citizen to take it,
ana as the inability to fcrve as a juror
tieated by law, Mr. Jones's incapacity to be
come one, could not have been coiidruedln
to a contempt of court. Mr. M'Kean's con
dufl, therefore, was as illegal as it was cruel
and tyrannical.
' l Menenius a writer in the
Lancaster Jour/in!, tvbile discussing the
merits oj the livo candidates for the office
of Governor,, as a proof of APKean's ill
nature and abuse together with bis total
disregard for tbe Rights of Conscience,
relates the following anecdote :
" At Sunbury, at a court of Nisi Priut,
some two years ago, one Mr Bond, who is
one of the heads of the seventh day bap.
tills in that country, was one of the jjrors.
Having served on the jurv, faithfully, until
tbe Saturday of the court, he applied ref
pe fully to the court to be discharged ;
ftatirg that rt was against the rules of their
society, aud againd his conscience to serve
on that day. The chief justice Yefufed
his request. Ha Ihe refufed him without
abuse it had been more pardonable : but
his manner was difguiling, abusive and un
generous. His words were nearly these,
*' They pretend ts have fcruplesof con
science ? I know them all A set of
hypocrites.—We are obliged to hold
courts on Saturday, and he (hall stay and do
his duty too." Yet by our constitution,
every man has a right to worlhip GW after
the didates of his own' heart." I

PETER HELM, Steward.
j SALEM, September 13.
i Since «ur lad, Capt. Ebenezer Shillsber,
i arrived here from Malaga. We are indebt-
I ed to him for a careful summary of tl e late
I operations of t be armies in Europe and Sy-
I ria, abftrafted from the Leyden papers—the
fame in fubdance to the details by the late
arrivals from England.
I Capt. James Stewart arrived on Wednef
.day from Cadiz, which he'left on the 29th
of July.—He has also obliged us with the
following summary of the news at Cadiz,
viz.—That the important defeat of Macdon
ald ha 9 rendered the Auftrnns and Ruilians
matters of Italy, except Genoa where the
remains of the Frerieh army were (hut up,
and mud very soon surrender—That the Al
lies were equally fuccefsful on the Rhine
That in France peoples mind's were in great
fer.nentition, and that open rebellion had
broke out in different parts of the country
especially in La Vendee—That they aecule
the government of all their m : sfortunes,
which they seemed to think irreparable by a
total change of system, which u might be
surmised was not far diftant—lt was fur
ther reported there, that three of the Di
reftory had run away—That the French
had loft 130,000 men since the combina
tion of the Auftrians and Ruffians— v l hat
they were driven entirely out of Switzerland
—and that the Ruffian advanced guards had
a&ually entered the borders of France.
Gibr alter, July 20.
Two frigates arrived this morning from
Mahon, which left the Briiifh fleet there os
the 10th, watering and nearly ready for sea,
They knew of the French fleet's beirg at
Carthagena bound down, and were getting
ready to pnrfue them. They were expefted
at Gibraltar in the course of 24 hours if the
wind continued.
July 2j, Cape Spaite! baring E. b. S.
20 leagues distant, Captain Shillaber spoke
a Butilh frigate which informed him that
the French and Spanish fleets had left Cadiz,
and that they bore from him the 24th. at
2 P, M. he brought to a Danifli brig, from
Li&on bound lor Safta, which was boarded
by the above fleet at 9 o'clock that morn
ir.g and by a French pirate at 11 o'clock,
and informed that they were (landing to
the westward, and he judged them to bear
from him, at that time, N. N. W. 7
