ANT01NE R.C.M. ax tA FOREST, Conful General of France, Philadelphia, Augud9, 1791. iHtftrtlanin FROM 7HS NEW.rOltr JOl'RNJL, ADDRESS, Ta the Rrptilfoa! i tbt United States, Mr. Pa 1 1 It will be fviclrnt to every obrerver, thit Ihrre nre twa parttri at prefent extfling in the United States One campnfed of perfbnt who are rnrleivoring to lay the foundarioa ol a mooar chical government, by inilillin into the mindi of the periplr.renrimenti inconfiftent 8c unfriend to repub icaniftn.

The other claf confiihof the real fupportert of friend to equal light, nd warm advocate of a free, elr flivc government. The firft defcription are generally known by the title of Ariftocrats. the latter will ever retain the glo riou name of Republican. A a fi eegovrrnmcut mall reft entirely on the will of the people, and at this 'will can only be obtained threnigh their reprefeniative camcftly khovei the citizm to be watchful anJ cauiioui in the chtice of their fervanu; careful of the men ihey place in the firft office of government, and attentive to all their Should you dTcovcr an inclination in any of your rcpre fontatives to betray the facred trull confided to them, and viate from the genuine principleof freedom, inltantly place other in their room, nor fuffer a fingle perf to remain in office who i favourable to ari(lLcratic eftablifhmenU. It it generally believed, that the elf flora will be unanimoui in the choice of the President for the rnfu'ng four years.

No one, it is pte fumed, will hefitate to declare, that the prefent worthy Chief igiflrate 1 juftly entitled to the confi itcnre andjlleemof every Ametietn. Some fuppofc the prefent Vice Prefident will htburdrun at the next election. The fuppprtcrjof tottering monarchy, and the friends of UiffL rcnt in the nation, would ceriainly wifh to bring forward a man whofe principles were congenial to their own. If fucha character could ptftblf be found, either at Gollon, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, or Charlef ton, he would undoubtedly, obtain the fufFiages of the wll fan, and the cringing congratulations of the anti republicans. But I truil lite friends of liberty will rally round the altar of freedom, and dtTappoint th expectations of their enemie.

Many look to John Hancock, of Mafljchufcttj, other to James Madifon, of Virginia, and pot a few imagine, that George Clinton, of New. York, will he! the' fit teft perfon to prcildc id the Senate the" Un ted States. The Republicans (hould endea vor, by all mcam, to unite, or rife the foes of a free government will undoubtedly fucceed in chufmg one friendly to their own fchemes. Free meOi be aclive and unanimous in the caufe of liberty; recoiled that much is yet to be done; the tree. muff, be pruned of.

the poifonous twigs that at prefent fpiing up and retard its growth, or it will wither and decay. Lop off every unfruitful branch, and root out of ih? foil of freedom all the noxiou weeds of arillocracy. Attend to the voice of the fair goddcfi, Independence, whi once called upon you with a loud voice but now gently whifperi, that Liberty is in danger, With an eagle'i eye watch the gradual approach of flavery, and ever repel the aiTaults of mad ambition.
