No one fn 1 j. ft has excited Jacobinic fury more than the fyllem of public taxation and expenditure It has given ds ft m-.lancbol ly to " many a pretty speech" in Congress. It has afforded '•marry a d leful ditty" to tbe pages -,f the Auora and the Cb> onicle ; and it has furnilhed to leaden-headed demo crats, ample fubjefts of clamour and iom plaint. The ivbisky tax has excited one re bellion, which cost the United States, more than -the wbolt} produce of that article in Pennsylvania. si ic it was firfl established ; and the land tax, if you include the rebellion, the fuppreflion of liberty poles, the convic tion of Brpwn, and the double trial convic tion and pardon of tbe innocent fries, Gett man, andoth rs, has been nearly absorbed by the very means of enforcing its colleftion. Now hear Mr. Jrfterlo , the prefen.t head t' these opponents: In Xoles, he lays, "We could raile, [that is Vi-giiia alone] and we ougbt to'raife from • r,e million to a million and an half of dol ars annually,'* and this in specie. Again n page 293, ''The value of our la: ds and lives doubles in about tventv y-ars." ' The amount of what may be raised will of ourli r'se in t!i-- lame proportion.'' Tin? 300k was written twenty years ago, and of j'lurfc Virginia in the opinion of Mr. J.-f ---'erfon, could n '.v by direct tax, three in l ions of dollars annually ; and til" Ui i J States in the fame ratio, could raise without lifir.

The wh le United States, call for only 'to millions, and so Mr. Jefftrfon's party ,'ird on their swords to refill its colltftion, and millions of dr^llpens are wielded to cre ate opp liticn to it.

If the United Statu then confiding of three millions of inhabitants and with half their present wealth, could support 18 (hips of the line and 12 frigates, why can thi-y not nit now maintain 15 frigates and 2 (loops of war ? Is it because | this navy was advocated by his political op ponents ? John Adams Tecommended the measure ? Or isit, that our commerce pa (Ted the ocean unintei-rupted ? Were there no pirates, no plundering picaroons to moled and invade " the free charter of trade" ? Could Mr. JefFerfon (loop to consult bis po pularity on a subject so intereding to his country ? Did he know the weak fide of his fellow-citizens, that they value their money mote and their Jionor less, than their true interel'l requires, and does he mean to flatter this weakness ? Is he like the Syllas, the Cxfars, the Cromwells, the Bonapartes of other countries, and does he intend like them to mount the people upon their hobby-> horse, come upon their blind fide, and ride them to their own deftruftion ? Or ladly, Is it that this naval force was fitted out to repel the aggreflvens of his dear friends tie French ?
