POPPDTG THE • QUESTION.
Two bashful lovers sat one night '
Within a grape-vine bower.' Full bright '
The moonbeams 'were:, The twinkling stars
Cast over earth their golden bars.
Upon the river's silent breast(
'A' copy of the'sky Was prest ; • •
While on-the greeri leaves of the troes
Danced the light spirits of the breeze.
All sounds were hushed, save where some boys
At "hide and seek," were making
And save where, sleeping in her pen;
A Miss Hog grunted now Mad then.
.Charmed by such scenes and yomds, they wove
Within thalbower,.the woef of love ; •
Within that bower the smacking kiss
Was heard; and sighswhich spoke ofildiss.
"Dear Jane," said he, "41-de-ar Jane I '
I want to s-s-say--=Tis vain • .
P-p-perhaps; but ne'ertheless 1:
Will you-0, may-be you will guess .
What I—w-w-what I Would say.
Will yon be thine ". Say, yes, I pray,"
Down fell the blessed maiden's head:- '
I And though she trembled, still.she said,
1"0, dearest Thomas, since You've popped—
Since from your loving lips has dropped
The question—may be you c:in guess ;
My short response: 'tis yes;—'tis yes l"
And even as she-said that word ;
The roosters as by. impulse stirred;
Flapped.hard their wings and loudly crew
While through the arbor soft winds blew; .
E'en Miss Hog turned armind once More,
Gave one Icing grunt and one ling snore;
While the old watch dog said. "bow-wow,"
And some old- tom-thtt said, "me-yow."
Thus when the queSion is let'out
A 'rumpus' is 'kicked up' abone; .
And cats, drip, roosters-=all Creation
Give one simmense congratulation.

SERIOUS REFLECTIONS,
ADDRESSED TO THE CITIF.ENS OF MAS
SACHUSETTS; •
To an impartial spectator of passing
events, the movement of political factious
iu a free government -are always objects
of curious and interesting speculation.--
In countries approaching so near a dem
ocracy as the'seCnited States, it waist e'f'•
er . he the primary objects oithe leaders
of party to court the favour of the peo
ple. There are two modes of accomplish
ing this with success, one of which con
sists in rendering real service to the pub
lick, and the other by professing extra
ordinary solicitude, for the people, by'
flattering theirprojudices, by Ministering'
to their passioni, and by huutouring their'
transient and'eha,ngeable opinions. These 1
two processes for the attainment .Of the
same object, are scarcely ever combined;
together, and as the ambitious and aspir- 1
lug must uriiyersally be impelled to arm
at the' end, so the ;choice of the means;
takes its complexitin from, the individual
character of every candidate - for power
through popularity. ; In times of national
difficulty and 'distress, when the service
of the publick is a service. of danger and
oltoil, when DEEDS are the only test of
attachment to the Country, ; and .mere
words are esteemed at their proper worth; 1
the PATRIOT 'RI' Acno:4, generally ob;
tains the `ascendency; but in days 'et
peace and tranquility, when the duties of
r publick life, are little more than a rou
tine whemlionour without peril, and profi.
it without sacrifice 'is the result of pub, ; -
dicki employtnent, then the PATRIOT
PROFESSION take: his turn, and often
bears away the ; palm' from 11 1 0 More re-'
served and unassuming competitor.
This distinction between the patriot by,
PrtoLlissioN and the patriot by ACTION,
could not better be illustrated' han in the'
contrast between 'the-struggle, fur a Cron.;
seral Ticket, upon Which in my late num
ber's I have animadverted, anil..!the effort
of the same 'party in oppositiOU .to Mr.;
Ely's ruotion.;.' 'Ve.have seen4ti the. for-,

elusive reasons, for, their's when the pco=
pie had never inanifested, and Trubabb
never entertained any such s4ntunent.--

protesters take for. granted, that the peo
ple like their project best, and then make
a merit of adVoeating it for that, reason.

and `their vOtTas`Legislaters; of attempt

,Y,:y open opPositiona - meaSure of the'deep

The reasons upon which are..grounded
the instructions, for which Ely.mov
ed; n
are 'so elemesoitrong and so lls
ptitable;, that. no ' direct, answer to them
has been attempted '.either in the Legis
, laturh, 'or in the neiispaper, apee,iilations
which have 'appeared, on the subject.---
The rule Of representation prescribed by
the Constitution of the United Statics is
universally adinitted tube IJNE , QUAL, and
when combiried with the practice under
the Censtitulion iJ oppressive and on all
States _holding a few or no slaves. At
present the people, of the United States,
consist of two 'classes. A privileged or-
der 'of slave.;holding Lords, and a race of
men degraded, to a lower station, merely
because they are not slave-holders. Ev
ery planter* South of the Pototnack, has
one vote for himself, and 3 votes in effect
for every slaves he' keeps in bondage;
while a_New England farmer, who:con
tributes tenfold as inueli to* the support
of the government, has:only a single. vote
---our Share of representation is only
VortiOnate o nuMbetS, their share is in
the wine proportiOn of numbers, and their
property is represented hesides. it the
time when the 'Constitution was formed
this provision . was admitted (in the ground
that the burden of taxation should be ap
pOrtioned 'to the benefit of representation.
The'experienee of fifteen years howeTer
has proved the errour of these edeilla
thins. The experience of fifteen yearS
has 'prov.ed that
.four fifths of - the bur
dens of this government must be sup
ported by the States. which have .no. rep
resentation for slaves. The benefits
Posrsaoz
pledged to us, as a compensation for in
adequate taxation is not secured to us
we are doubly taxed, and they are doub
ly represented.
The necessary consequence of this has
been the loss of all our weight and
ence in the Councils of the Union. It is
a faot well ascertained that the excess of
Southern Representation decided the fate 11
of the last election for President and!.
Vice president of the United States; the. ,
same eventimust inevitably follbw every V
contest in which the • interests of the
North and those of the South shall he at
variance. While the present...system of i
representation continues, an even balance!
in the National Councils must not be ex.!
petted. The : slave representation like!
the sword of Bre,unu.s, will forever be!
thrown into the Southern scale, and must:
forever make our's kick the beam.
In a moral and,pOlitical view, this rep-!
resentation of the slaVeS is alike objet- 1
finable'. The nuniber. of ihOse
ble beings already existing in some States!
is such as 'to occasion the most serious!
alarm in all 'humane 'and thinking minds.'
Sr. Jefferson •has said that .the populace!
of large cities, - no more add-strength; to.
the body politick, than sores to the natu
ril body. If this comparisOn be just the
slaves of our Southern neigbors are ab
seesses of the deepest, and most danger-,
ons matter to our' national body. In-!
!stead of strength they are distemper,
Which if it cannot bo eradicated, ought'
at least not to be festered- and stimula
ted. By allowing. representation for
slaves, we encourage and reward the in
famous trafliek of iuman flesh; and ac
cordingly we find that although fat one
period this traffick was prohibited in all
our states, yet thetemptation to allow it
,has already overpowered every othercon-!
! sideration .in, South Caroliba, and she has
opened her ports to that disgraceful!,
trade,
It will not be necessary-at this day o' l
prove that in the eye of morality this pur-'
chase and- sale of man, is criminal. The
laws of the United States have loaf; since
declared it so, and as such it is prohibit
ed to every citizen of the,Unitedr States
on the severest penalties=. Thus the Con
stitution instigates and urges- the South
ern States to that which the laws plll3-
ish as a crime. It makes .the 'highest;
privilege of freemen, the purchase of ac-1
cumulated slavery. It says to the North-1
ern and riivigating.Statei, you shall not!
[trade in slaves.. ;If yon do. your ships' and. l
•
Alien cargoes shall .be contiSeated, your:
estates shall, lie iiiiried - by 'tines, and your ;
persons.sliallbe:baried in dungeons, and
at the same breath it says to the South-)
ein States deal' in :slaVes—milltiply. the
, fetters of yoilf -bondage,'autVfoi. every

eoutive authorities of the nation. 7 For inl
the .iret , same act it offers a bounty, to,
l one. Citizen, while, it 'brandishes the
i scourge ,tier another. 'Can anything be
more Hillman?. Can any thing be more
absird •
' Thus in whatever point of view we
contemplate this provision: in the Tea-
stitutiOn, whether aa.inoralist,s, as politi
crane., or as. citizens; it calls . aloud] for
amendment. Yet in the legislative of
Massachusetts itselfWere found men, who
Made . the most, t fortual and Pointed oppo
sition against:a fair, and Constitutional
attempt to obtain this ainendMent. And
what were the, arguments they,alledged ?.
They were Worthy of the cause in, which
they were advanced. - •
. They said, that it 'might perhaps give
offence,toNirginia, and the slave-holding
Stales, and thus endanger the ,eristence
of the Union. - '
P ut propositions of amendment
to the Constitution can . .gire no offence to
those
_States' whose mostinfluential char
neters bare been and still are clamorous
for amendnienti much more calculated to
.
strike at the.existaticeOfthe tuioia—:who
. „ . .
aro continually telling us that the_Con
stitiition 'not only permiti, but invites
pr4oials of amendment—who ; have just
accomplished one, :which they deemed
essential to the increase of their own pow- .
er, and who have announced their deter
mination to accomplish others, still .more
contraraint to the principles upon which
the compact was originally settled.
This fear of giving offence; by the ex
ercise of an indisputable right, under the;
i
sanction of every ndueeixient which jus- !
tice, humanity and, liberty can inspire,
is ii'inotite WhielCought not to be urged
upon freemen: lt is an,appeal to weak
ness—a plea to .argumentl
fifonly"for slaves to utter and to hear.—!'
It discovers a mind prepared for every:
degree of submissien. It is the languan'e I
of e negro driver On a plantation to .tliel
wretches, who tr inble under his lash
but it can find no accessible corner in the
heart of a New England farmer.
The pretence of danger to the Union,
cannot be: credited by those who raise it.
The amendment when proposed in .Con,
gross, will be adopted or. .rejected. lf
adopted, it will have a greater tendency
to cement and perpetuate the Union than
any thing that• has occurred since the
adoption of the Constitution itself. If
rejected, its friends - will 'undoubtedly
submit to the Constitutional decision,
and wait until the progress of reason shall
produce.a state of thing. 3 more favourable
to : the 'purposes of Justice. Of, the
seventeen States there are only five
whose representation is increased by the
slates, they hold. Twelve states there
fore have a permament . and decisive in
terest, which must unite them eventual
ly in wiping away this national scandal.
Of the five whose :number of members
would be. reduced by the amenc inentd
Georgia would lose but one member and!
North Carolina only two. The- InEta.- I
•ittE weight of these. two' States would
therefore rather be raised than depressed
by the exchange,' and their interest will ;
concur with that:of the tivell,- . e.• Even
in Virginia, the inhabitants beyond. the I
mountains, who. constitute a majority of t t
the freemen, in that Commonwealth,!
Would gain rather than lose in their pro-1.
portion of the representation; so that!
when once the voice of solid and'undeni- 1
able INTEREST, concurring with those
of honour, and Republican principle shall
'cease to be stifled by the deafening. din
of party spirit, there can be no doubt but
that the aulendment will prevail.. This
consideration will ' . naturany lead the
friends of the measure to pursue it at
once with temper and perseverance: Per
suaded that the Union is the first of
political blessings to every part of these
States, they will never be inclined' to
hazard it fur.any subordinate considera
tion, at the same time, assured that the ,
more firmly its feundations are fixed on
1 the foundations Of freedom equal rights,
the more solid and thorough will be ' the
Ilbrick, they will not relax their Mild
hut determined exertions -until the hon
lourable object for which they contend.
I shall be attained'..
