    ' are tponth to he found throughout our t»t
. riton • To mention narr.cs would be invi
dious and improper, bat such men are, who
are n credulous to that quaekifli theory
wb'.eh would reje £1 the fiudy of tht ancients,
•no adopt as models of fentiaent and lan
guage, the Reports of a French Convention.
Thrre ,re men of letters here, who hold in
a tci contempt that paltry stile, which de
forms To much of conversation, and so much
of writing. There are, #ho afTiciuoufly
study their matter tongue, in .the' pi] re A
jfogfoi authors, and who are both solicitous
and proud to copy the !tyle of the- Augustan
aire, whether to be referred to in Rome, or
Albion. This literary corps are wholly ig
norant of that Ivtim idiom so much in
votftie. They difelaim it. If patriotism
and national vanity air to be gr&tilied by
talking and writing in this dialedt, these
men will make no fueh Cicrifice. They will
liipport the rights of commpn sense. They
will adhere to the old, eflablifhrd, and ap
proved modes of speech, and will neither pub*
lllh nanfenfe, nor spell it in a nrrv way, be
ciufe the folly of the tiincli.d I)r. Franklin
and hit followers have laf.ctioncd it.
"They partdrd near the fliorr, and, after
Oie entnetl the water, clofrd the fccue with
a feu HeW it is aatural to recol-
Jc" rout on rr-.it, Culifulion worfc con
founded." Wlut a medley 01 images tbrutig
mir.d. In the compass of two lines
»e behold a military array, a fliip launch,
tlje melancholy closing of a theatric fccne,
and the brilliant glare of rrjoicUig fires.
Nay, the pret in not latisfitd with the co
pir-ufnefj »i tL Enjlifh, but swells his fub
jccl will* a phrai'c p{ France; as a cook
lards the plutip qt-'si', cr a tailor tacks lace
| t o gorgeous brocade. Kcre w<< have pan
ding, and entering, .nd cloiinp, and firing
" Gun, drum, trtwrpct, biucderbufi & thunder."
11 On the wljole, we think it the mod no
ble feene ever exhibited on this fide the At
lantic." Our poet is fiill in the upper re
gion, and "with no middle flight intends to
soar." The launch df a frigate is a plnafing
ipe&atle, and lb important an addition to
our naval Itrength t'nggefts agreeable images
of national glory. All this is true, and in
this it is natural and laudable to be interfil
ed. iJi't is not true that this is the; mtift
noble si ene ever wi'rrfl'cd even on t/th fide
th« Atlsntic. It is a ludicrous exaggera
tion. '
" M She moved with the rfioft perfefl ease
anl and with a noble bow, bade
the land ADIEU."
Our sublime poet, as if fie had rcferved
all his ttienpth till now, here appeari gigan
tically'foWime :
" Greater ha look), and mere than, mortal Rare*,
Wkoibu» the wonders of the dtep dcclmi."
His (hip. like the fabled Juno, is described
with an eye to the " Afl Ego" of Vihcit.
* She mom a Godiefs, and be locks a
stiU~thrre is a visible mixture of the famiy
liar with the supernatural, even in these lof
ty images. It fecms as if th; bard were
thinking of {brae pntty fellow, taking leave
of his mistress, or a powdered beau, gliding
gracefully through a ball room, and praSti
eing the retiring bow, just taught by the
dancing matter. Perhaps, h«wev<!r, he is
here only availing himfelt of the figure am
biguity, or unintelligible, of which, he seems
remarkably fond. A fliip, if right «r read
»ur nautical di&ionary, may have a B<nv,
»nd if this be the poet's meaning, his favor
ite may bid mother earth croud bye, without
any extraordinary extravagance, either of
meaning, or gefi'.cul.ition, Pethaps also, in
the. fervor (if his fancy, he has chosen to put
into the bands of Ins ship a low and arrows
for the purpofc of piercing some of the cur
bed pirates of the ocean ; or as he is ,so
much of ail rnamorato we may fufpeft he
has in his e;e part of the furniture of the
god ct love. The exprefiion " noble how"
seem» t<» support this solution, for as the po
et is a man of reading, he might hive re
collefled that beautiful and tender paffafje in
the jjedlar's ballad, commonly called ■*' The
Mtflrnfnl Tragedy of Rofanna."
" Liufc C*pid bsnt his nohle HoiUivw
Wftkh leit a fatal dart behind,
That proY il Rofanna't ovtrthrow."
After having at forre length, in a fkyle of
hurlclijiK' and bairter, thus analyfcd this ca-
rious paragraph, it may seem impertinent to
clnf* the iubjedt gravely. But the fubjeft
is of importance, and drfcrves the foter con
fiderat-iori of all, who afpirc to write and
canverle ith purity and Simplicity. This
paragraph was not fe'efted for the purpose
of exclusive animadWrfioft. We have no.
far;Lu!tr fplcenagtiinn this individual com
position. It was picked up from a mass of
iimilar writings, in America, as a rvpe of
a. very common,current, and utferlv vicious

though her voice "grate harfli thunder" to
the ra,r of true patriots, bomb-iftic editors,
fuflian orators, college bovs, ft id genu; omi\e.
Our reproach and ridicu'e are intended to
reform. America has indulged this rant toa
much. It is time it Ihould bt ridiculed and
reasoned away. We must choose tlis day
whom -he will s-rze. We have the " Mo-
fts and tiie Prophets" of language. We
fi»ve pean Swift, Dr. Robertson and

printed.

credit to William Tazewell ; and the bill
to provide for the sales of certain lands be
tween the Great and Little Miami Rivers,

sed.
Mr. Rutleage moved that the committee
cf the whole house to whom was referred
the bill from the Senate in addition to the
aft to prohibit the carrying oil the slave
trade from the United States to any foreign
place or country, be discharged from the
further confederation thereof.
Mr. Bayard seconded this motion, with
a hope that the bill would be recommitted ;
it was impcffible as the bill now flood, to
carry its provisions into execution ; ani he
wi/hed them to be so modified as to prevent
our citizens from having any thing to 4o
with so infamous a traffic.
The motion was cairied.
Mr. Biyard then moved that it be referred
to a select committee.*
Mr. Rutlcdge eppofed this-,|notion, and

agreed to, and three member» appointed.
