times, so argues the gentIeman, held opinions 1 as dangerous. those which he now holds. Be l it so. But why, therefore, does he abuse New England? If he finds himself cOunirn- | anced by acts of hers, how is it that, while he relies on these acts, he covers, or seeks to cover, their authors with reprOach? But. sir, if. tn the course of fNrty years, there have been undue efferV essences of party in New England, has the same thing happened no where else! Party animosity and party out. rage. not in NewEngIAnd, but clscw here, denounced President Washington, no only as a FedrralIst. but as Tory, British agent, d man who, in his high office, sanctioned cor ruption. But does the honorable member suppose. that if had a t"ndrr hrrc, who should put such an "fu -ion of wicke,lness and read it against the South? Parties ran int" great heats. again, in l799, and 1900. What was said. sir, or rather what was not said, in those years. against John Adams. one of the siSners of the decaratiOn of independence, and its admitted ablest defender "n the floor of Congress? If the gentleman wishes tn increase his stores of party abGs" and tT"thy violence if he has determined prochNty tO such pursuits, there are treasures of that sort south of the Potomac, much tO his taste, yet untouched-I shall not touch them.

 The parties which divided the country, at the commencement of the late war, were .i- olent. But then, there was violence on both sides, and violence in every State. MinOri- ties and najorites were equally vioIent.- There was no more violence against the W ar in New England. than in other States; nor any more appearance of violence, except that. owing to dense population, greater facility of assembling, and more presses, there may have been more in quantity, spoken and print 1 ed there, than in some other places. In the article of sermons. too, New England is some what more abundant than South Carolina :; 1 and for that reason the chance of finding here and there an excep,ionable one, may bc great 1 CT. l hope. too, there are more good ones. Opposition may have been more formidable ] in New England, as it embraced a larger por- ton of the whole population but it was no

 more unrestrained in it's principle, or violent ] in manner The minorities dealt quite as harshly with thclr own State Governments, J as the ma jorties dealt with the administration 1 here. There were presses on both sides, pop

 ular meetings on both sides. aye, and outputs on both sides also. The Sentiernan's pnr'ey- ors have only catered for him among the pro- ductions of one side. l certainly, shall not

 supply the deficiency by furnishing samples

 of the other. ! leave to hiln, aud to them,

 the whole concern.

 It is enough for me say, that if, in any part

 of this. their grateful occupation. if, n all 1 their reasearches, they find any thing, in the

 speaking slightly of its value, proposing to

 break it up, or recommending non intercourse

 with neighboring States, on account of differ

 all up to the honorable gentIsman's unrestraln-

 ed rebuke expecting however, that he will extend his buffetngs, in like manner, to dA

 similar proceedings, whc'eUer else Jo"aa The gentleman, sir, has spoken at large of

 former parties, now no longer in being, by

 their received appellations, and has underta-

 ken to instruct us, not only in the knowledge of their principles. but of their respective ped igrecs also. He has ascendcd to the origin.

 and run out their genealogies. With most

 exemplary modesty, he speaks of the party

 self, as the true Pure, the only honest patri- otic party, derived by regular descent, from father to son. from the time of the vlrtuous RO- mans Spreading before us the tanity tree of political parties. he takes especial care to shew himself, snugly perched on popular bough! He is wakeful to the expediency of adopting such rules of descent, for political pdTticSs dS SlIdiI DIluS ," S~>'NS'NH V. others. as an heir to the inheritance of all public virtue, and all true political principle. His doxy is always orthodoxy. Heterodoxy is confined to his opponents. He spoke, sir, of the federalis,s, and thought saw some eyes begin to open and stare little. when he ventured on that ground. l expected he would draw his sketches rather lightly, when he looked on the circle round him, and espe- cialIy, if he should cast his thoughts to the high places, out of the Senate. Neverthe- less, he went back to Rome, 0d Gnnum urbe eondito. and found .he fathers of the federal ists, in the primeval aristocrats of that renown- ed Empire He traced the flow of federal blood down through successive ages and cen turies. till he got it into the veins of the A. merican Tories, (of whom. by the way, there were twenty in the Carolinas. for one in Mass achusetts.) From the Tories, he followed it 10 the Federalists and as the Federal Party was broken up, and there was no possibility of transmitting it further On this side the At- lantic, he seems to have discovered that it has gone of, c"llateraly, though against all the cannns of descent, into the Ultras of France. and finally became extinguished. like exPlOd- ed gas, among the sdherents of Don Miguel. This. sir, is an abstract of the gentleman's history of Federalism. ! am not about to controvert it. It is not. at present. worth the pains of refutation, because, sir, if at this day Al .NE LN.,ryAs VIchNN INJIN
