M. M'CONNELL, Cbesnut street, No. 143. To TENCH COXE, Esquire, Si«, • _ YOUR political career mull have taught you that public, mes and public meafurcs will be the fubje&s of public investigation. In the course of the inquiry, their motives may be mifiuterpreted, and their aftions rnßilv and uujultly ceiifured, but their vices can not elude the public eye—Their wealth or their friends may aveH the merited ven geance of their country, but they will find no advocate at the bar of public opinion and polkrity will join in the general cenfurr, because unintertftcdin contefiing its jqllice. Ambition is a patfion which never (lum bers—Diftppointed in it*expe£lations front the corruption of a Court it trims its bark and sets its fails to the breeze of popularity. Its objert still is power—fraud and deception are still its means. There has been that ambition, which springs from virtue and is nourished by patriotism ; an ambition which disdains the aid of vice. This was that principle which flourifhed in the foil of an tiquitv ? This was that which fired the foul of WaOnngton ? That which has reigned in your bosom has taught you the art of per fuafioi), that you might be enabled to betray —The friends who have alfifted you in your embarraflments, have been ficrificeid at the flwine of inteiefted ambition. It may not be hazardous to affirm as a general truth, that the youthful mind which dots not glow with those sentiments, which Adorn our nature, will never experience them in their future career. In youth perhaps, 110 passion is stronger or more general, than the love of our country—lf this be just, your friends could have formed but {lender expectations from the future life of a man, whose youth was distinguished by nothing but t treafon to his country. It has been your Sir, to have been from the days of your youth, a Have to am bition. The things " vibicb were ef banest and of good report," have been neglefted in the pursuit of its dictates—without the ta lent to judge correttly, and, without the firmnefs wh.ch virtue inspires, to pursue that judgment, you have failed through the political tempt (I, and in every llorm your bark has been Ihattered, and your reputation has been blalled. At au early period* you evinced yourfclf to be devoid of those finer feelings and of those nobler principles which prompt the youthful mind to virtuous deeds. At that day every ciicumflauce concurred to insure your exertions in your country's cause. The example of connsxions-and of friends fliould have influenced your judgment. The pa -4 triotifm of thp good and of the great (hould have animatedvyour foul ? The attachment to your native foil Ihoiild have (t'mulated you in its defence ; —and that fame spirit of ambition which enflavcd your foul, should have pointed to its gratification in the storms of revolution. But those causes, which fel doni fail of their effeft, could not annihi hilate that nieannefs of foul, which formed the strongest trait in your charafter—Your friends and your connexions and your repu tation were forgotten, and were abandoned, and vour,couniry marked you as a traitor to her cause. Yet had you remained a paflive fpe&ator of her struggles, (lie would have attributed it toi that fear, which has overpowered minds much stronger than your own. Had you remained firm to the principles which at ! that day you profeffed, Ihe might have ap- 1 phuded your firtnnefs, though you would not have enjoyed her confidence—But it was j rot for you to wtrp over the misfortunes of your .country, though you wanted the firm nefs and the courage to assist her ? It was ' slot for you to retain principles which you 'f trfltri 10/IO '7/ njne it market Deli:. Cti, had aiioped iti the hour of danger. With Britain.you exuUed in cl*e deprelfion of your councry, nnd with Britain you joined in the persecution of ypur countrymen. Yet wh«H thfc expulsion of the enemy proved the fallacy of vour calculations ; when you became an alien from your friends and from your home ; wheji you flood on record a TRAITOR, your country with a magnanimity which has been repaid with in gratitude, liltened to the petitions of your friends* and received ymu into her bofoun, and confided to you her interests—You were piated in a confpicuons and in an honorable llation—You enjoyed the confidence and the friendlhip-of Wafliington, of Adam?, and ®f Hamilton. Yet at this moment your am bition pointed to your own aggrandizement Dece|Aion was familiar to your foul Your pen was employed in the defence of your country, while you silently firove to undermine the reputations of her Pa triots and of her Friends. Patriotism and friendlhip varmlhed your tongue, while the hours ef retirement were the hours of al- faffination. Inceirant and laborious in your exertions to fleal into the confidence of pub lic and of private men, you were fuccefsful in yfi'jr fchethes. In the hour of unfuTptCl ing confidence, and beneath the hospitable asylum of their own roofs, you artfully in gaged them jn convrrfation on fubje&s which had been planned in your own The sprightly jrl>, or tlie unmeaning meta phor, or the theoretical (peculation were artfully and malignantly garbed in your own language, and minuted among your memor anda at the hour of midnight—Disappoint ed in obtaining the nffice of Secretary df the Treasury at the retirement of Hamilton ; an office to which you had the vanity to j aspire, the AbrorA. was made the medium j of your malignity. You enlifled with a faftion, daring and unprincipled, and with them you aimed the javelin at the heart of your country. With them you affiled the reputation of Wafliington, This Sir, was at a time when the fandtion of an oath im poled 011 you as a duty, the defence of the State When the receipt of her funds fliould have Oaidvo'ur ungrateful attack— you wi re detedled in your schemes—you neglefted your duty—you quarrelled with your fuptriors, and you were informed that "your servicel were no linger required." \ou made an idle appeal to the Legislature of your Country, and that Legislature b.y declining an interference, fan&ioned your difiniflal. You now no longer ftro*e or wifli- d to keep your machinations fecret— confidential conversations, and private, and unguarded correspondence were brought through the medium of the Aurora before tlie public bar. Your friends were betrayed. Your enemies were slandered. The man whose friendfhip for you obtained the re versal of yo|ir attainder, was not secured. His observations you have perverted, and his fricnaOtip you have repaid with ingrati tude. " . And what lias been v the motive for such conduft ? That you might ferv« a worthy agent, under the tyrannical and the perfecutincf idminiftration of tin; Governor of Pennsyl vania. That you may serve under the an miniftration of Jrflferfon. Sir, you have reaped the reward of your condufl—your enemies despise your connexions avoid you- They fear to c verl'e with you, least their obfei vatioir might be perverted and detailed in the Ga zettes. They, who difter from you in po- litical sentiment, will not conveife with one whom they cannot but detest ; while they wl)o harmonise with you, will not place it in your power, to betray their confidence at a future day. This, Sir, is the firft communication I have held with you, but it may not be the lash I have c|iof;n to give it publicity my self, that the tijne which ftuiuld be devoted to your qfficial (lation might not be occu pied by you in preparing it for the Press.
