J TO THE PUBLIC Sometime ago, there commenced, ja this City, the publication ot a Newspaper, intnled the recorder, PubUflud •wuk!j,*p<,a angel fiftt, el Two Dal lan, pay ail3 :v advance, SEVERAL gentlertien, *who approved 01 the peculiar plan of this undertaking, and who were folicitous to promote its luccefs, have repeatedly deft red the eoitors to tranfmit t<T tl ir cere, printed copies of the plan, and of the terms of fubfsription. They did this •*>nh a viev. to cohebt the names of lublcri bers, rnd, at. the fame tune, the proportiona otc advances of money requiitte for eftabllfh mg and fupporttng fach a publication.We did not Wt.ii to be precipitate ir. complying with this amicable tequifttion. Our reafen was, that editors frequently fet out wito a profef fioii of principles, and with a title of execution, which, to borrow the phrafe of Shakci'peare, has no more refcmbhrc* co their fubfequent performance. , u rhan the firft day of May lias to the lad of December.’* Before we ventured to ipcaic much about ourfelves, we were anxious to give our friends a full Ipeci men ot the newspaper. The common pro ccis of fuel) publication is fliorrly this. A pr.r.fvr, who has money to ouy a . oftlce, or c.cdit to procure it, gets fomebody to write 1 profpectus f ; uim: lie therein, with the ut mcl'; gravity, informs the public, that he id a ;; ; ^ our moit etceeiicnt ltderal con it. tution j mat he abhors all jacobins, difor g2nit.cs, and atheifts; that he anoroves of J') J Treaty, of a Standing Army, ci a Se ction A ct, of an Alien Ad, and cfpecially, of the ftratagctn by which the fuff feder al con- ’ grels, that memorable band of patriots \ j Sw.ndled the whole continental armv out of] ‘JJ twenty or thirty millions of dollars- ! I rocc'-’-.rg upon principles tike thefe, our virtuous 2nd profound editor af'ircs all his friends and patrons, that he will follow the venerable names of bamui_i Ohafe, of John Adams, and of Alexander Hamilton, through Are and water! He will fupport the federal confutation, when moil falfely conftrued, or moit impudently diftorted. lie will not only believe it tube infallible, but lie will believe that every ore of its New-Eugland interpre ters is iikewile infallible.- And whatever tlicy affirm to be in the confutation, he w ill believe to he there. He concludes, vy aflunng bis rco rs, that Virginia is the ‘y°nd cf Debt % , that »Le had refined to pay .‘icr *‘\2re of the debts of the union j that Un wanted to engage America in a war with •'•r g)and, for the lake cl iupponing the French • evolution ; that fl?e was ambitious to fupport tnis atheiftical rev olution, for the faice of in troducing a political anti revolutionary d; ’orcs between the oppohre banks of the Pa I towmne, wi i- much uu"-c to the fame purpofk. i I he(c are no- he exprefs words, bat' this :s the exprefs meaning of many introductions to Federal, newfosper which have been pub hfhed in riic United States. The fentime ms 3*t- Jo be lure,dnguifrd; and die ’anguage is loitened ; but when you come to take the fto rv o pieces, and fet .t up again, you car make neither more nor lefs of it :han what is here , Trued. We appeal to every Virginian gen tleman that has nil ad a feat in Cong.cfs, toat ttftj that this deferip;ion is not the caricature cf fancy, but the poi trait of tr uth. Now, fellow-citizens! Ictus jump over the federal ditch. Let uj hear whac the good, hone#, indep ndent, republican democrat real printer fays to his virtuous and enlightened fublcribers. Ne fiy , that all men are by nature equal ; tint all authority originates bom the people ; that the ofttier you recur to their judtmnent, f > much the better; that, in a truly rrprtfenta tive government, no fault car. be committed; bccaulc, as the people knout every things it is impoffible thaT rbeyfhouki be mill Ten. Fi mi thefc g< neral and »nconte#iblc principles, your •lemr crari< editor walks into his <letai! Hr dart''! not to forak out; but he trie, to wb'f per, that ei certain pollticaUnflrument is .; . e ry queer thing. Tie fays, that it was repro bat'd !>y Patrick Henry, the Treat. # orator, by fen thoitfand degress, that ever dignified Of enchanted an American atrdienCe. He fays,! that experience has juflified almoit every pre- j diction that had been fo pr sphctically pro- 1 nouncccJ vy Patrick IF rry, by Georg. r'.z fbn, by Judge Tyler, and by Me prefer: r-:> I verno. of Virginia. This democratic*! edi J ,tor fays, that when Patrick rderrv alLulted fames Madifan, it wa< i:kc a t. d-not plough jihare thruH over a fack-fuil of chaff, j Our editor farther fays, that it was the wi feH thing imaginable, fo- the aliembly of Vir ginia to make a prefent o Congrefs of the whole North- WcHern Territory. He rays, dtat '.his territory was at cait five times as L.*gc as the whole Hate of Virginia. He fa vs, that the ancient dominion made a pre-fent to iCon2ref's of this pretty little pototo&rpatch, ^and that this was done by the particular ad : vice, and building upon the tranfeendant in formation of the Hon. James Madifon. He ifays, that Virginia received tb< grcatcH i'er vice imaginable, when fhc was flripped of ai i molt a planet’s worth of property, v, hich had Teen gainedby the genius, perfeverance, and ir.trepidity of George Rogers ( Mark ; ’.nd by ithe valour and the blood of his fait! > • i a:'d ; invincible vetcr;ih3. Your detnocralical cd! fays, as every man ir. his fenfes mu ft fay, jtf.it Virginia could not have ;»£led rn .ee wile ily than byltrippinp hcrlelf of an inconcciva- 1 j hie, and ar, inconteitiblc mafs of propert', - j What is the reafon that vou are now paying : {a merchant-tax or forty dollars upon the: Iwholefale, and fifteen upon the retail trader r j Look at the prelent you made to Congrefs ! , Why are you forced to pay forty-eight cents ' J per annum upon every hundred dollars worth! j of your lands, fo much upon your Haves, arid j ! o very much upon your Hud horfes, and vourl j jack-9 lies ? The democratical editor tells you * n a cone ot exultation, tnat thele oielungs * have W.cn derived from the witUom and pacri Q'ifm ot Mr. Madiibn’s North-V/efterndona tion. Your horfes, mules, mares, and colts, pay twelve cents each. Every licer.ce re-l quires a tax of twelve dollars and an half. A j lour-wheel riding carriage pays an hundred ! and twenty-live cents per ./heel, and phtetons «tnd waggons, eighty-four cents Y ou know th-AL our t.*c» ctacy of ftatc .s a gentleman oi luprciiijc talents, and that his fewE-s to Vir ginia have been worth ten time' more than all thefe petty taxes. O i this account, we mail fay nothing about the tax upon ' ocr car riages with two wheels, or your tn rc.s upon lots and houfes in towns. We pals over twenty-five,or thirty hundred thouibnd dol lars per annum, which you pay to the fed rat government, A.FTER the repeal of its Internal '.axes. You pa7 tie.* itnmenfc fum in the ftv-tpe of impoil and becaufe the pill has be r. difguife-i, you forget that you were forced to fw allow it. If Virginia contains ninety thou sand white families, they contribute upon ar average, about thirty-five dollars per annum to the* federal and the flate govevnmer.es. Yoc do’this becaufe vou gave aw ay your Notch* Wcftern territory , and the i-you vert wifely wonder that you arc [caret of money 1 With fuch unfathomable abyflbs for the ex tirtcfionof your money, can any body ’.vender char the t.tafury of Virginia does not, v this moment,contain iivc/hidings ? That orders upon i: urc felling at a c cruder able dsjeoun!. that an hundred and ten thoufand doll >is have been funic ipon the commencement of an \r. mory, and that ninety thou.hiiid more will be required for comple. mg th?L ineftimablc buil ding ? Ir it furprizing, that the printers of a ncwfpaper which uncovers to many fee rets, have had an hundred twof* libels pub-iiLc-d a.^ainlt them ? or, that ty Recorder is h ired and'hated by all parties Government, is at belt, but a choice of evil'. Oft he correyton of the Federal Gover nment, it has been, an 1 ic always ihali be, one of the principal objects j of the Recorder t trace the origin, the pro | grefs, and the p. babie termination.
