For the New-Tori Daily Gazette.
Mr. M'Lean,
The fear* of the public are at this
time excited, by the unwarrantable op
polition to the laws of our cotintry.
Whence springs all that difturbanee, in
thfc Wellern country, unless from the
feeds of discord, indullrioufly sown by
a faSion, long known to have been in
imical to our present government ? The
conllitution, of the United State*, at
the tim« of its adoption, was looked up
on as an event, highly favorable to the
liberties and interests of the community;
and, though it had met with severe and
steady oppolition, yet it was hoped from
the respectable majority which were in
its support, that the minority would
have contented themselves, under the
impression, that they had done their du
ty, and as good aitizens ought not to
impede its operations. Such a conclu
sion, as this, was expected as well from
the candor, and liberality, with which
it was discussed, as the affedtion and
good will, which it might be imagined
they bore toward their country. No
sooner however was the machine set in
motion, than these very men again came
forwaid, and by declarations and adti.
ons, evidently evinced themselves itsJlill
avowed enemies. Slander and abuse
was poured forth upon the individuals,
who had firft proposed, and upon those,
who exerted themselves in carrying into
execution, the Federal Government.
Just when we began to experience
some of the many happy consequences,
resulting from our new iituation, and
were looking forward to a sure, peacea
bte and undisturbed enjoyment of civil ,
artd religious liiwrty, plans long conceal
ed, and loitered in the hip of antifeder
alij'm were observed, to lie carrying on
with great rapidity, and threatened the
glorious fabric of unity juil reared ; pri
vate meetings, eonfe-rences, and hashed
up ftoiies, were ripening apace in pub
lic affrmblies, to open caballing and bold
afetion* of villainy and perfidy in our
rulers.
Measures appeared to be taking in
each of the dates, to k'ep alive old jea
loufics, to quibble and catch at at,
whatever might in the publ c opinion,
have a tendency to ! L it the private, or
public character of these who were en
trusted under the federal government,
or who were in any aWay its advocates.
And having once imagined, of heard
of the fmallelt deviation, from that
which in their minds coriftituted recti
tude, they watched the opportunity,
and Jacobin like,denounced the unhappy
•vidimt, as undeserving of public elteem,
bad citizen#, arid vde patriots. Only
to talk of these things, among ft them
selves, did not aufwer their purposes ;
they did not produce in the people, a 1
difaffef.tion to our government, a desire j
to lenovate it, or a wish once more to J
be a fepaiate people. On the contrary r !
the more they reviled, the less fchey j
were noticed.
Happy, interesting, I hopeto the peo j
pie of France, but certainly prejudicial J
tb us, were the means there taken, to j
! • fFedl a change of government, and to |
I proclaim grievances, which were endea- j
| vored to be concealed. They 1 avr J
j been adapted to the genwu of its iuhd-J
bitants, but can never compert (how- ;
ever congenial to the fentimeuts of a 1
few) with our situation. No interme
diate power or body should any where
fubilft, between the people and their
representatives, as it certainly will de
feat the intentions of both. By repre-
or pretending to represent the
wishes of t'ie one, and the actions of
the other,' fa£U may be niillated highly
deftruclive of public felicity. To whom
are either to resort in such a cafe ? sure
ly not to such & body as this, for they
tonfidering thefofelves, as a friie and
lawless sett will be accountable to nei
ther.
The Democratic Societies, inftitutcd
in this country; are a fpeties of the Ja
cobin Clubs, some time lince establish
ed in France. The intention, <.r effects
of each, however, different—The one
destroyed a government founded in ty
ranny, oppreflion, and violence—and
fuhftituted another* that contemplates
the peace, liberty, and happinfcfs of its
citizens—The other appears to be emu
lous in assailing and battering to pieces,
the belt and molt free of all govern
ments—and to erect, one replete with
anarchy and confufion. If these focle
tie» have in view, the detection and ex
position of public officers, and intend,
(as they ought to) to support our go
vernment, why are they so particular in
disclosing, and criticising, at those laws,
which appear to them, bad and un
wholesome ? Are there no laws, no acts,
no doings, done by our rulers, deserv
ing of publie approbation? If there
be, why are they not detailed, with as
much exadtnels and nicety, as .their
misdeeds are ? Individuals become dis
gusted, and angered, when they do not
perceive j that they experience what is
pleasant and good for them—and arc
told of, and perpetually troubled with,
descriptions and mentions' of things,
that are disagreeable and offenfive. So,
in government, to* pvelerve peace and
good order, the people ought to be in
formed, and f-erninded, of the salutary
effedts produced by certain good laws,
as well at disturbed with repetitions and
foretellings, of Unavoidable and neceffu
ry otctirrences, from bad ones. Had
this been the conduct of these societies,
they would have rendered themselves an
ufeful body 1 but their only pointing
out the ugly fide of the picture, and
concealing the beautiful, makes them a
fulpetted and odious class of men.
It is therefore to be wi(hed, as well
for the preservation of oui lives, liber
ties, and interests, that these socie
ties, will, in future, once in a while,
publish to our fellow-citizens, an ac
count of some of our vvholeforne laws ;
otherwise, a society of a counter kind,
will have to be set on foot—when they
will dwindle into nothing.
A CITIZEN.
For the Gazelle of the United States,
Mr. F(nno,
THE doctrine recently advanced
refpeftisig direß Taxei is not new—it
is intimately connected with that of a
perfect democracy's being the belt form
of Government. Both the positions
may be true, when applied to a people,
few in number, and young in a state of
civil Society—but applied to a people
advanced as the Aizeus of Ihe United
States are, in numbers, property .
fecial improvement., they are p ' *
with every species of mifebirfto
human nature is incident -1 h aTe -l
charity to fuppofethat some of the J
vocates for direst taxes, may be aA u „,
'by ho',eft views—But so ftuhborn are
[ facts in the experience of this country
• and of mankind in general, in 0
to the principle, that it is not tofiibl, "
i the writers in general, in favor of ,h at
. tnode of railing the supplies nece (r
, for the public service, can be exonJt
, from unworthy motives. It is true that
r every proportion ought to Hand on the
- basis of its own merits— and that ma
, tives (hould not be brought, into view
. in the investigation <ff principles.-,
i This is a good general rule—but when
t extraordinary measures are propofed_
- when a dereliaion of eftablifbed pri n .
, ciples, fanctiuiied by the happiest c ff c a»
r in their operation, is urged with a
, fpcatous (hew of singular patriotif m __
I the mind is immediately arretted in it»
- reflections on the fubjeft and irrefiftablr
; impelled to search for the rtafims or
i motives which give birth to fnch extra
c ordinary propositions—There is but one
-> class of people in the community, which
, in thc present circumstances of the
country, can be pleajed with the plan
of direS Taxes—those <u>ho mould pay
. nothing.—For let it be remembered that
I hi no part of the United States where
3 the fyltem has ever been adopted—do
. ( those wfio pay almost the whole, ever
_ s apportion the TAll the legiflatui®
• 5 ah dp is, to pp.fs laws to levy a gross
- s sum—the details of assessment are made
. by men who are paid fort'heif trouble,
a and who will do it the chtapeft—the
. i.llenfiblc plan is always to feck for the
t propert f whgre it is to be found— not
r whe>e it .s not—Now except hy a poll
_ tax, nothing can be colledted from j
. very numerous proportion of the pto
c pie—ls your Correspondent H. ready
f to propose a poll tax ? If he is not, the
j- consequence is obvious—and if he is a
n man of fortune let him reflect on the
. probable effects of a subversion of the
y prelent fyfterfi. C. .
