The republicans in America, who cherifbed the pure and juft principles of liberty only, have been to this day accufed of abetting all the horrible deeds of the men who in France difgraced the name of liberty, a mod foul calum- ny, and known to be fuch by thofe who uttered it. Nay, liber- ty itfelf was ftigmatized. The horrors of the French revolu- tion were faid to be the certain fruits of democracy, that is, of a government entirely under the control of the people. To enable federalifts to acc...omplifh in our government the re- volution which they meditated, it was neceflary to increafe as far as poffible the number of influential men who mould be in- terefted in the fupport of their meafures. To degrade and to bring into contempt republican principles, and as, after all, they could not hope that an actual change in our government to the monarchical, hereditary form, would be permitted without op- pofition, an army was indifpenfible to overwhelm refiftance. This is the key that unlocks, and places fairly before our eyes, all their fecret councils ; by this we are enabled to difcern the confiftency f all their meafures.
