Aug. 22 F.'om the American Daily Advert fer. ATTICUS TO TULLY. SIR, YOU have again made an appeal to the feelings of the people of the ,Uni ted States, not to inform but to seduce them ; not with the candor of a repub lican, but with the infidioufnefs of a monocrat; net with the manly aigu ment of a mind conscious of its own rectitude and the honesty of its cause but with all the art and intricacy of a iophifti Your present attempts will be like all your former ones, for " Ca tullus" with all his labour, his address and his misrepresentations was not able to fully the character of a Jtjfirfon; neither was " Pacificus," with all his subtle attempts to prostitute the honor, honesty, gratitude and vir tue of the American character able to compass his object : neither will "Tully" the Cameleon Tully, wMi all his dex terity and many headed essays, persuade the freemen of America, that an op polition to excise fyftcms is an oppcll tion to the conftitutiun, any more than agjoppofition to him or his measures is hostility to virtue and republicanism. The attempt to persuade the people that the Constitution is in danger, that anti-federalifm is rearing its crest, is too stale to pass at this time of day ; there was a time when it had its effed and you profited by it; but that moment is palt, at prelent, endeavour to prove yourfelf immaculate as to impol'e so trite an artifice upon an enlightened public. If the constitution is in dan ger it is not from the people, but from ihofe in authority under them, who seem to conlider it as a piece of wax fitted to receive any form or impreffiqn which they think proper to give it. The people of the United States need not the aid of " Tully's mind to convince them that order is preferable to anarchy ; they need not his logic to prove to them, that a fettled state of things is infinitely more desirable than confufion ; neither do they require his eloquence to persuade them, that the constitution and laws of a free people are their offspring, and that they ought to suppress them.—Truths so palpable require no adventitious aid ; but the in sidious attempt to excite bitterness in the minds of the citizens against each others blood, to treat them with less consideration than unprincipled Britons, must excite abhorrence of you, and prove that a difpefition for revenge or a desire of blood are mo e prominent features in your character, than the J name of Pacificus" would leave the world to suppose. You are the preacher of peace when Engliflimen and savages are the fubjedts; but when our own ci tizens are concerned, nothing but car nage will satiate you. What is tiic de sign of your essays but to incite the ci tizens of the United States to have re course to immediate bloodshed and as wantonly to plunge the bayonet in the bofems of their brethren as if they were ourang outangs or tygers ? Let confiftenpy charade rife you, and while you declaim in favor of peace witli Great Britain, at the hazard of every thing a virtuous nation ©ught to value, do not preach a crusade against the de luded western citizens without experi encing your favorite system of negocia tion. A nation can no more be free that submits itfelf to the outrages and arbitrary contioul of another, any more than it can be fiee when it fuffers its laws to be trampled upon by its own ci tizens ; but it moderation and reason are to effect justice with a foreign na tion must they not be equally effc&ual with itfelf ? Is there less reason among the citizens of America, than among the prostituted and abandoned ministry of a British Court ? If there is not why such oppolite means I 400,000 eodrf Lot For w&stf You affect to be the apostle of liberty and federalifm, (by federalifm I suppose may be understood union) and if these are your profeffions how very far are you from praftifiitg what you profefs. Is it the deftre of liberty that animates you to arm citizen against citizen ; is it the desire of union that causes you to hold up the idea of antifederalifm ? Will no other theme serve your purjJofes ofdif cord and blood than the hackneyed one of antifederalifm ? Can you believe for *- \ - fatte NUMBER I, [Whole No. 62 2.] a moment, that a ß y man, who is not loft to every fenfeof virtue, can wifli to overt urn the government, aud throw his country into the miseries of anarchy? If such can be your opinion, whicli I very much doubt, it must be attributed to a haunted imagination, that can fee nothing but hobgoblins in the empire o the people. Perhaps you mean to consider every endeavor at reform as an attempt at as subversion, and link every opposition to the administration, like your cousin, Pitt, with hoftiiity to the con Hit lit lop. Should this be your objedi you will torture your ingenuity to little purpose ; for that age has paficd away, that would have given you a monkifli influence over the American mind. Your plan would have made you a fit instrument for the reign of Queen Ma ry ; for your mode of converlion would have exactly suited the apostolic heart of that devout Princcfs. Field-pieces and muskets could be as efFectual, no doubt, in teaching men obedience to laws, as / a gg ot in teaching them tranl iubitantiation and the infallibility of the Pope ; but these would not be more certain in their effects, than force in flopping the progress of the reforma tion ; for free men are to be kept in their duty by reason, and not by the infti '..mentality of the bayonet. . That spirit which can brook no opposi tion to its will is better calculated for the meridian of Berlin than Philadelphia • tor ui a country where men undaiiand and reel their rights, and their duties, where they are to be persuaded but not to be dra gooned into a fubmiflion to Jaws/ the Woody mind of a « Tully" would excite horror rather than endeavours to iuppoit his measures. No good citizen will iufti fy the violence of the wtftern people ; no lnend to orflcr will approve their mode of opposition to the will of the major in- ; bnt none but a Cannibal would with tounfbeath the sword of civil war until every pacific expedient had failed. . „ ATTICUS. Aug. 28. From the Philadelphia Gazette. Mr. Brown, Under the New-York head in your piper of Saturday, is a very curious quotation from the Columbian Mercury : the author in the beginning seems to be pleased at the demolition of Popular Societies in France ; which is not at all to be wondered at from the sentiments afterwards advanced on the fubjea of taxation—his opinion is, that the more free the government is, the more heavy willthenecefl'ary taxes be; Ihavefeen these sentiments pretty frequently coupled together before, and have often had oc casion to remark that the molt violent ene mies of popular societies, are often the warmest friends of taxation. With due submission to the Columbian Mercury, I believe the freer the govern ment, the smaller will be the taxation— and I am of opinion, however heterodox it may seem to this author, that popular so cieties will tend to prevent taxation, by strongly remonlVrating against the origin of taxes, so frequently to be found in the pro digality or unneceflary expenditure of pub lic money. Your's For the Gazette of the United States. Mr. Fenno, The paragraphs alluded to in the ar ticle signed Marcus, which appeared in Mr. Brown's paper, having also been published in your Gazette—please to insert the following observations in re ply to Marcus: The paragraphs it appearsoriginated in two of the new-York papers—one printed in the city, the other, the Co lumbian Mercury, is publilhed in a re mote part of the Hate near the fron tiers. The paragraph refpe&ing the a bulition (not demolition) of the popu lar societies in France, Hates what is Gonceived to be a fact, without the wri ter's so much as " seeming to be pleas ed" as Marcus phrases it. The para gtaph refpe&ing taxation is totally dif-- tinft from and independent of the other —and the probability is, that the ref-* peftive writers are mutually unknown, I wi(h Mr. Ffnno, to offer a few re marks on th« (jbjedl of taxes in free dates—the writer in the Columbian Mercury h*s in my opinion advanced the truth in faying that " the more free thegovernment is, the more heavy will the necessary taxes be."—and this fimnle idea will illustrate it to the comprehen sion of every man—The greater any person's pofleflions are the more will it cost to guard and pretest them—ln MARCUS* "a. .
