ct Many of the opinions which this work contains, arc
bold; some of them are novel; andfa-nedoubtlefsareer
roneous —but that which ought to endear it even to t..oJe j
whose principles it may offend, is the strength of
ment adduted in it to prove, that peace and order molt ct~
fecftually promote the happiness after which Apolitical re- j
formers are panting that as ihe progress of knowledge
is gradual, political reform ought not to be precipitate -
and that convulsive violence is dangerous not only to -
viduals (for that rcfult comparatively would be of small ,
account) but to the general cause of truth.. It is the cp
pofiteof this principle that infpirei the enemies of politic
al enquiry with so much terror ; it is the fuppofitiqn
change must inevitably be attended by the turbulence and'
injustice of commotion \ and that innovation caijnot be <
made without the interven - ion of evils more destructive
than those which are intended to be reformed'. Under the
conviction of this philanthropic fentimcnt, of calm and
gradual reform, (which in its proper place he has fully il
lustrated) Mr. Godwin proceeds without fcruplifirft to en
quire into present evil, through its effintial branches, and
, next to demon ft rate future good.
" Dividing his work into eight books, and malting the
IMPORTANCE or POLITICAL INSTITUTION* tlie fil%& of
the firft, he begins by an attempt to prove th? omnipo
tence of government over the moral hzbits of mankiad ;
and that on these moral habits their wisdom, virtue and
felicity depend."

NEW-YORK, June <t5. I fc
It is « remark wo,thy of noti f e, that the flrength I d
of opuofuion to the adm'midration of on' govern- v
merit, lies with the people of In "Is or no property, r
This remark trill be bell ilte#r»ted by reference to «
the Dumber of votes for ijtei&tora'and /likmbly- Ii
, men at the late election. *
In the city and county of New-Yo.k, the votes f
' for Senators in the fede.al interell averaged tor ,
1 each candidate 1140-but for the oppoht.on can- f
j didates only about >75- TWat '»• P erfo " 3 1
pofietTnig freeholds of the value of tocL the quah V
ficatioH of Senator votes, the federal tiutet had, ,
j within a few votes, two to oat. again., the other t
ticket. , , [
In the ticket for AfTemMymen, no property he- 1
inV required to entitle a resident to vote, the fec'.e- *
raTticket had the advantage of less than JOO votes v
out of 2284, about a f.venth. 5
In another view, the difference i» equally remark- 1
able. The votes for were c
about 2250, on an average-—tor Senators, 1 I4 3 * J
That is, more than half the vote* for the federal ;
ticket, are prrfons who have freeholds of i ool* value. I
For the oppofitiou members of afiemWy, -the
votes averaged about 1740—f.>r tjie Senators only J
575, or less than a third—so that more than two t
thirds of the voters for the opposition ticket, have 1
no real property o£any value. I
From the beginning of government to this day, :
the fad hat been invariably the' fame- faction has
found materials to work with among the poor and
ignorant.
Indeed it cannot be ojHsw.fe—ambitious awn
cannot make tools of the well-informed, and, in
general, of property are better informed <
than the labouring poor, who have had no advan
tages of education. Hence wlieo we fee men set- ;
ting up for the friends of the poor, and making a ! 1
proclamation about their patriotism, they are to oe -I
set down, dangerous men--men not to be trailed. 1
When petitions were circulated in tbis city, in ;
favor of the Treaty, the Argus told us, " That ,
was not the way to obtain the Jenfe of tpe people."
i The ele&ion was-tben to be the criterion of public
opinion. *
As the ele&ion resulted in favor of the friends
'of government by large majorities—one solitary
Senator and some dozen or fifteen AiL'mblymen,
out of more than a hundred, being all that oppoli- 1
f tion can boaftof— it is desired to know whether the
Argus will now admit the tlcß'.oa to be the criterion
of public opinion and the sense of the people.
Extract from
MR. FINDLEJf's VINDICATION.
From the Pittlburgh Gazette of 17.
" Having an opportunity of a waggon darting
that day to Gfeenlburgh which I did not expe£t a
. gain during my continuance in thecrity, I had pre
pared to ftnd np a trunk wi'.h a variety of goodi
for my family and some of my neighbours, but left
1 the charge of it with a boy to have it secured and
brought to the waggon, and he not being able, to
clole the trunk so as to lock it, left it in Market
ilijr tlic.vutc woul<Tb~e tak
en without further difculTion, I declined paying
" any attention to the goods, though called on for
that purpsfe, 'till it appea/ed almost certain that
, the question would not be taken till the time of ad
> journing, if at all that day. It is well known that
' when once a difcufiion commences with us on any
' important question the vote is rarely taken till near
* or aftpr the usual hour of adjournment. The vote
v on the call for papers relative to the treaty, though
it -had been difi-alfed nearly three weeks, was not
e titken till after three o'clock. Capt. Robert Dick
' ey, of G.ieeufburgh, and Mr. Stonemeitz, a re-
fpeftablc merchant in Philadelphia, can teftjfy wbe
' ther my call to go out was not urgent, and whether
1 was not anxious to return bifove the vote would
be taken.
Before I went -out 1 observed the gentleman who
had newly ttken the floor branch out his argument
5 in ftich a manner as to induce me to expect a long
diicourfe, but not trusting to my own opinion, I
confulted two other members viz. Mr. Gregg and
Mr. Gillefpie, who thought I fafely go out.
- 1 I did not expe<st-to be detained half an hour ; but
c the member who was speaking dropped his argu
" ment so suddenly, that Mr. Page, with whom I
conveifed at theontficle of the door as I went out,
did not get in till the quellioii was called and but
barely in time to anfwtr to his name. In other
public bodies a member n\ay have his vote taken if
he appear before the result of the vote is Hated, or
» even afterwards, if his vole does not change the
I state of the question, but by our rules the name is
1 not admitted if the member does not answer when
j his name is called in course, Mr. Sedgwick, the
e ! member who was on the floor, is as f«ldom charge
e ! able with disappointing the house of a long argu-
raent when he takes the floor, as I am from being
.j absent on an important vote. When he took the
j. floor oh the call for papers, though the house wait
d cd till after the usual hour of adjournment, he told
- me he had net gone half through with his argument;
£ snd I appeal to the journals of all the publy bodies
in which 1 have ever fat, and :o thofc who have fat
. with mc in tliofe bodies, to teftify if ever it was
my pra&ice to avoid a question. It is known th*t
- I have voted on questions of Itill greater importance
£ than a British treaty, and in circumstances more un
toward than appeared on this occasion, for not with
. itanding the pains that was taken to promote agita
-- tion, there was no mobbing in the lodgings,"nor
- j hifling in the galleries during the treaty dilcuffion."
y Extraa from the Pit {/burgh Gazette, of the fame
date.
e "It has been insinuated in "extra&i of letters"
r t,iat Pind'lev did not leave his place for the purpofc
of evading the refponfihility of a vote; but, that,
not cxpefting the question to be taken so immedi!
- ateiy,'he wa«. absent for a short fpnee of time on
an emergency of some business of his own which
demanded his attention. This is not so honorable
soT ,he representative. His prefencc was due to
.. the public from the firft mon».it of the fefiion of
the houie to the last j and on those day-- especially
when every moment vras pregnant, if I -nay f oex .
press it, with taking the queltion, the absence of a
moment was unpardonable on any other principle
but Bfcrffi'y of nature itfeif, sickness, Sic. The

men', it* some cases capital ; yet in the moral nat.
ure of the there is a great offence, and derr
li£iion of duty. A want of punctuality in f ma j]
affairs, lessens refpeftability, and deflroyn the con.
fidence of trust ; hut in great affairs it ruins all cha
ladler -totally, and becom?s a crime. A crime al.
so of a mean nature, which draws \yjth it contempt
I would rather have had it said of mc, -thar Khad
been bribed by the French miniller to leave ihe
house, and had received a trunk of Iniis d'ors fur
tHe fuccumbeney, than that I had been absent for
the purpose of fending home a trunk, filled with
less valuable articles «i" my ow For it would in
volve in itfeif some com that 1 had been
worth bribing, and in the Ore cafe I should betho't
grest, though a villain. In the other, 1 should
in no refpeft, have eitheT vulgar or philofopliicrrl
opinion on ray fide. If 1 were at the head of a
party, and one of my men should defcrt me at Lch
ajunfture, and for such a cause, 1 would cashier
him from my pontics for ever.
" I admit tMh our rep;efentntives Gallatin and
Findley have (hewn courage in refilling thefenfe of '
this country, expressed by the petitions ; vet not
so much as may at firft view appeor. They have
been in the habit of considering the country as but
an automaton in their hands, the machinery of the
-public inteile& moved and impelled by them At
pleasure ; and in taA they have had confiderabie
reafoK, Findley especially, to entertain such ideas.
The treaty bias might have beeo conlidered by them
3s a temporary derangement, which, when they
came home, tbgy e»uld eafriy set right.
" 1 do not charge it to these repiefeptatives a»i
any effccV of theH-.managemeM ; hut ti*e fact is
! that abroad, there is nobody of any con.
• sequence in this country but thewfelyes, and that
they have what araaaota to
