it are rabid and violent in no ordinary degree. They

hence their fury, 'fire, and faggots.'. • Their, Cause is
truly pitiable and deplok'able; for never 'wns n party

they writhe and rave in terms stilted to any other timid'

is, that thegovernOr issue his proclamation
sooner; - but, as the Inquirer very justly observe's, this
is utterly absurd and ridiculous, as the ficts - oftbe Case
fully'prove. The proclamation could not have been
issued-yith,proprietY, until the governor had heard of
the final action of congress upon the %lions financial
projects before that body.' Congress did not adjourn,
