REPRESENTATIVES
IN THE
Seventh Congress of the United States.
BY A COMMITTEE,
Appointed at the Stale House in Trenton, on
the 13th of Novemberlßoo.
Fellow-Citizens,
IT is maniteft to all, that, from the very
commencement of the Federal Government,
in March, 1789, to this moment, a parly
has exifled, incrflantly oppoled to its opera
tions, and indscent£in their treatment of the
constituted authorities.
This party was at firft limited ; confiding
chiefly, of those characters, in the larger
states, who were diflatisGed with the balance
given by the constitution to the finaller
member* of the confederacy by an equal re
presentation in the Senate.
This they could never forgive ; and, fail
ing to prevent its adoption, they wished to
jullify their unfavorable prediifiions, by ob
ilrufting the rneafures of government.
And, it is not to be doubted, they will '
seize 011 the firft opportunity, which presents
ufi.lt, either 10 annihilate the Senate, the
! ctncoor or our union, or mould it to tr
views of the nvire powerful dates.
Yet the evident benefits, immediately re
(uhin£ fram the new Cowftitution, under t!i
l-ciici <1 A'Jminiftrsttion, soon ftupped th
clamour, if it did not quite extinguilh th
- fpivit, ■ t dififFiftion.
U ;it-:d coUnc l Is ; firm government
equal law ; jolt and temperate liberty—
thole great objects of the revolution, am
the pj-omH'ed r.waids of lb much toil an;
s blond—were, for a time, the result of thi
1 great Federal Charter. t
') ) This fair profpeft, however, was offiiort
r \ duration : The wars, wlixh broke out ii
i I Europe, and which, for ten years pad, Fiavt
. ! ravaged aful deiolated its fined regions, be
c came'the sources of infinite mifchief to tbii
I riling empire.
; t"be Fumcb Revolulianzers, dip.rafted,
' witfe diplom itic intrigues, our pnblic coun
> ; cils ; their philosophers, with impious
• lyllems of infidelity, poisoned the public
moral.? ; and their agents and partizans,
profiting by the refentijients which yet fur
i vived in the breads of many Americans
i .igainft Great-Britain, infufed, eveiy %vhere,
a spirit adverft to the public tranquility.
To the French Faction, were foot) united,
another class of aliens, equally disposed to
force the government to war, and eager to
avail themselves of the contingencies which
th*" even£, combined with a French con
nexion, might present as favorable to their
criminal desires.
These were emigrants from the English
dominions, who, . Hying from puni&nient,
01 penury, gladly fought an alTyltim in a
land, which held forth impunity to their
crimes, and an easy supply to their wants.
With all these, were alTociated, the dis
contented—the ambitions—the unprinci
pled ; and the di(appointed, of our own
countrymen ; and although the three deno.
minatron» differed in their national original,
and, in some refpedts, pursued different
ends, yet, all united in one common and
I formidable opposition to the Federal Govern
j went i becaul'e it equally thwarted their
! grand revolutionary projects,
j This Government vrstt condu&ed by men
los the fiilf talents and the highest political
I intregnty ; their obje£ls were Independence
—Peace— Public Faith—Stability—Law
Practical Civil Liberty,
T.hey proceeded on the maxims of expt
rience—refifted the effnts of clubs and asso
j ciations, formed to control or dedroy the
lawful authorities they rejedled tke wild
theories of democratie enthuliads, and the
insidious fugged ions of pretended patriots. ;
and, perfeverin,|, amidd threats from abroad
and factions at (lonie, they deadily pursued
a eourf; of dignified neutrality and condi
tutiqiul energy-*-" maintaining union—
eflablilhing jud.ce—infuring domefhc trail
quiiity—providing for the common defence
—promoting the general welfare, and fecur
- , ing t<» th'mfelves and podsrity the blessings
- , of liberty."
: The intelligent and the virtuous have, at
t all times, been on the lide of> government :
' : To their union, ai d their efforts, we owe
t it that, amidst the w.eckof dates and king
doms, and the rxtin&ion of religion and
> | law. WE.ire yet FREE and HAPPY!
i j Fellow Citizens, if we look back, aid
i j survey th.- .dangers we have paired, and the
• i immense store of blessings, which have beeii
■ I secured under the Federal Government,
i | where can we find cause for complaint, or
s ! how exprtfs the extent of cur gratitude !
t j And yet this government, so fre< in itt
; principles—so gentle in its redraints—fo
1 just in its laws—so prudent ill its measures
- —so profule in itt benefits—the source and
1 surety of our liberty, our civil im
' niunities/ and religious freedom—has been
' the condant fubjeil of reproach ; and those, i
■ who have condu&ed it, the vidtims of !
calumny and persecution ! j
1 Those factions have never ceased to ob- i
dnift government, and to embitter society. I
Tro' trodden down, they are not dedroyed 1
-•-though foiled in fgccelfive attempts to
disorganize, and to crulh the i'ydcms of ! •
Washington and Adams, they rife with new ;
vigor to the charge, pioud of their very de- i
feats, and meditating greater mifchief. i
The very measures necelTary to guard the 1
country againtt their dedruthve project* of j 1
revolution and anarchy, become the fubjedls j
of accusation, and are set-down as frelli {
items in their catalogue of grievances ! t
If by their countenancing or provoking ' <
foreign nations to outrage upon our rights |
and commerce, the government has been
forced to protett theru by fnilitary and naval , 1
j armaments—then is the ciy of daniiing ar- a
mies, and expensive navies, resounded in
every quarter ; and tyranny, and taxation, *
held up to alarm and difgud the people. r
When, by fomenting discontents among
the gnorant, they have llirred up refidance
to the laws, and rebellions ensue—is/ Go- i *
vernment reprefles the infurre&ion by force 1
of arms, then is it accused sos too much 0
vigor in the means used for its piotefticn,
and charged with extravagance in the ex- t>
penfes attending the public service. si
When, by continued torrents of calum- g
ny, they would dedroy public confidence, t<
and bring into contempt the representatives ti
of the people—if laws are found neceflary tl
to curb fedhion and slander, then is the tl
liberty of the press the theme of their praises, w
jrid its infringement the topic of virulent t<
declamatioh againd the government. "
If the government resents foreign in- ct
j fults then ft is charged with provoking
I war; if it fuomits to them, then it is up- le
| braided with pusillanimity. y
French depredations, tho'continued
years, and sanctioned by their government,!
are palliated, andean neverjudify refidance ; in
but a Britilh impreffrrftnt, or capture, unau- pa
thoriztd hy the lbvereign, and chargeaule te
only to individual violence or ignorance, is *r
at »nce admitted, and even urged, as a fuf- k
ficicnt cause for national war. oi
If tke government will riot protest com
merce, the"n tlit revenue fails ; foreign goods
become dear, and home ptbduftiorii cheapen
to a drug' ; the taxes mull be laid upon the
farmer, and indultry finds no vewaid ; This
is, av oiice, decried as wretched policy. If
to avoid this, tli-t government permits the
merchant t:> arm, and equips a navy to pro
tect the revenue, the capital ot the merchant,,
and the agi icultu'.e of the country—-then
are the p;ople alarmed with talcs ot naval
eflabilhments, and increafingd-bt.
It is thus these tornjentors weave arouiYd
the constituted powers the web of deftructi :n.
—lt piljive, the government fiuks into a: -
nihiiation—if a£live in repelling the foe, it is !
branded as tha nvfirumeiit of opptrffion ! |
Nor have the (halts of malice fallen -only !
opr>n the he-ids of the public fuin'Vionanes : i
1 heir camtituents —that great and relpec
table cluls of- the community, which, com- j
poling- the majority of the people, have ap- j
proved the mcjfuies of government—these,
too, have b?en fliginatized with epithets the I
mo.'l ieproaciiful, and defigivs the mWI infa-'
mouJ.
These majorities of the American people,
arc fntnetimes depicted as a Britilh t'adtion.
contriving torfllore the Britilh empire ; and
sometimes as wifiling to create a monarch of
their awn !
Sometime* they are aristocrats, because
they,adhere to the conllitutional departments;
then they are tories, because they will not
revolutionize their own government.
At one time they are priest'ridclen, be
cause thty relpeft religion, and believe it
essential to public as well as private hap
piness.
At another, the lawyers have too much
influence, because they aie attached, to fet
tled government, and (land forth tlte able
defenders of iu cause.
Such i« the use which these conflant libel
lers naake of thirties and descriptions to in
flame the violent, or miflrad the unwary !
And whild tliey multiply epithets, the
most approbrious. upon the friends of idini
niflration, (hey alfume, for themfclvea, ti
tles of the ,molt diftinguiHied merit— They
are the republicans, because they diltruft and
insult the gqvernmcnt 'l'hey are friends
of the people, hrcault. they preach up anar
chy under the name of equality :—They are
reformers, because they with to overturn
f hey sre economists, becaul'e they are lack
ing after places fprofitThey aremodest
•because they are climbing after power.
Their cenfui's are confined within no
bounds, nor admit of any exceptions ?
Every law is condemned as useless or op
prelfive ; the adls of every department, whe-
| '-her executve or judicial, an. nnfreprelent
ed ; every public charafter is traduced ;
every friend to government threatened or
derided ; even the ordinary and necessary
of every government are held up
as fnperfluous or oppreflive.
Taxes, raif-d to pay the debts, defray the
public Charges, and execute tke vail politi
cal and civil operations of the confederacy,
are proved to be grievances ; and the people
invited to difpenfc with them.
Salaries, the stipulated compensations of
those who engagr in the arduous and thank
lets duties of public office, receive appropri
ous names ot pensions and sinecures ; or
are hypocritically pretended to be enor
mous and unmeritted.
Public Officers arc treated as public nuil
ances ; and the people purfusded, that they
are multiplied beyond the necelfities of the
natron.
Incidents, th; m;[l infignificant, and niif
takes the aioft innoccfit, are tortured into
forms, monflrous and alarming !
The delinquency of a petty officer becomes
an offence in the government ; and the acci
dental preference of an unwerthv candidate
for a subaltern appointment, ii charged a
gainfl it as a premeditated wrong !- A cas
ual convention, half told-.-a confidential
letter, halt in jest, are exhibited as proofs of
trealon, or corifeffions of corruption !
This, fellow.citizens, is but a faint por
trait ot violence, the injustice, and the
arts of the uniting their willies and
their means to dilurganize the republic ; and,
upon the ruins ot religion, nioralty and
law, to establish the reigjrof terror and the
lword' of despotism.
Such have been the circumflancts of the
government, and such, for twelve years,
I discouragements under which it had been
condu&ed !
( Still, however, the wife and the virtuons
have prevailed r-'-The great body of real
i Americans, too enlightened to be deceived,
ana too independent to be awed, have ap
proved the systems, begun by Walhington,
continued by Adams and fuppoited by their
| representatives.
! Six times have the American people, in
their eleftion?, re turned majorities, friendly
to those principles which clifliadterize the
conduct of the Federalists
The seventh congress is now
to be chosen, and the great question again
submitted to us—whether to continue cur
governm«nt in the hands of men opposed
to untried theories and dangerous innova
tions, and attached to the existing order of
tbings--or whether we will abandort it, to
the diredlion of those, whose cendudt, whose
writings, whose views, are revolutionary I
to men who plainly tell us, " tb..t they mean
" to change the entire face of things in this
country

The line seems distinctly drawn.—lt is
no longer a dispute about this or the other
particular niealure, as has been artfully pre
tended ; but the opposition is genercl—it
arraigns every federal character, and every

of our national establishments, ]
These men do not conceal the extent of
their deligns—Every guzftte T --eveiy hand

Is it not enongh that we have encountered
years and yeais*of revelution, and are now
enjoying that very repose and civil security,
which were the price of its coils and dan

Why is it, that having eftablilhed our i n

I'liole men, who avail themselves offuch
means to move the violent to desperation,
or the weak to difcontentmcnt, c«n have no

are either depraved or ignorant.
Viewing the characters and the conduct
of the leading oppofers of the Federal Gov

arc we not called to_repair to the poll of

and the cuui'es which conspire to overturn

unceasing clamours against government, these
rojefted fchenies of innovation, under the
flattering names of econemy, and reform,

Hut our fafrty is yet in aur own hands-
The great body of the American people are
the Friends of Order, and the Supporters of
their Government: It is or.lv by indiffer
ence—by falfe security by iiniiianly timidi
ty, that we lhalll loose it.
It is impra&icable for us, on this occr.fion
to discuss the Measures of Government :
The prescribed bounds of our address will
not permit it.
Nor do we deem it necessary : They have
undergone a full examination ; and by your
fuffrages, at th» late Election you have pro
nounced yourselves SATISFIED !
In so doing, you have fulfilled the duties
you owed to luciety ; and we trust, given a
pledge for your future exertions.
Thisgovernineot, which has hitherto recei
ved our support, and repaid us. with it? pr»-
teftion—what is its history, but one contin

Did we look for the Consolidation and

If we expsdted from it, as a State, more

I both eXiltcd and l'ecured ?
If we trufied to it, as the Guardian of

Wealth, in what period of the world in
what nation, can a parallel be found ?
The Mereiiant ; the Husbandman ; the Ar

If we fought from it the bleifii.gs of
Peace ; of Domellic Security ; of Private
Propelty ;of unvioLted Conlcience ;of
Prrlonal Liberty ; have not all thel'e flow

What resonaile man, not afluated by am
bitious def.gr.s, or urged oil to unlawful
! pursuits, can deny to the American Cipvern
*ient the tribute of praile and gratitude.
What prudent man is there, who will not,
with his advice and his vote, endeavor to
prcferve it as it is ?
But to guaid it from its enemies, and to
preserve it as it is, we mull, we ought, feU
low-citizens, to confide its management to
those who, like ourselves, approve and res
peß it.
Ii from indolence, or untimely conceffionr
the public councils are transferred to other
liandiy there is an end of our fecurity —per-
haps an end of the government itl'clf. !
It is on our public elections that every
thing depends.
It we are careful to fe'edt men of right prin
ciples, and unite 111 fupp'rting them with our
fuffrages, we may fear no danger, but rife up
and lie down-in security.
And, of all the public agents, tho.e should
be fele<3ed with the greatest care, who are to
represent thi people in the National Legijlature

With thi: view, we have laid befor« yoa the

ful favl.on. ' —
The propriety, fclVw citizens, of uniting
not only in Our exertions, but our choice, is evi
dent. The oppnfers of the federal gsvernment
though defeated in the late attempt to bring in
Mr. Jifferftn as Prefidcnt, will now endeavor
[ to repair their mifcarriige.
They will pursue their constant maxims of
calumniating the government; of disparaging
its measures ; of deriding its friends j of cry
ing uplheir republicanism. and fl ttering the
people with profeffions of purity, and promi
se« of reform: But, above all, they will unite.
Fellow-citizens, in this one thing it will be
for our rnterell and honor to imitate them.
After the high recommendation, contained
in the refoiutions of the meeting at the State-
House on the 13d! inltant, it is the less necef
firy for us to speak of the candidates proposed
tor the federal; ticket.
Most of them have borse a part in the elta
bliftimeat of cur independence; all oftkemhav*
pasTed through the matt importantpublic offi
ces ; and all of ther»lUnd deservedly high in
the confidence of their countrymen.
They are truly attached to the federal go.
j and pafiels ta'ents fitted to- miij
tain the dignry and interest ef tfii State they
may represent.
We trUst that, with thrfe qualifications, and
carrying with them the la vocable sentiments of
so many refpeiSlable men, they will be accepta
ble to the friend* of government in every part
of the State.
But should it happen that any of our fellow
citizens, fro.-n dtfedl of information in regard
to the chara<flers wh® compose it, or some pre
ference for othert, might hesitate to fuppore
this ticket, we bag them to eonfider, that, in a
cafe of this kind, it 13 not poflib: e to reconcile
every local partiality, and conform to every
individual inclination ; to refleQ, also, that,
by dividing our fuffi agec, or dropping any of
thelc candidates, vveniuft inevitably fail in the
great ohjidl of ifull federal reprtfentation.
To these obfervatii is, diflated from a lenfe
of duty, and under the most folamn convitfli
on that the times require the union and the ex
ertions of every friend to his country, we add
our earned cxhoi t&tion, t.i every i'.dtDidualc'ui*
zen, to aift as if the of thefederal ticket
depended 011 his uw 11 vote —equaily interefied
in the coroiuon welfare, it is but jaft, that wo
Ihouli lend our aid to the common means, for
ensuring its continuance. And if from indo
lence, indifference, or lbme trifling obilruflion,
we take no part m the choice of our public
agents, we lhall be julily chargeable for the ci*
lamities, which way follow from the omifiion.
