A Cczszflczon, October 1808.. A ‘W l »»»»»» ‘ ‘ an ORATJION. MINGLED emotions of fear and patriotism erowd upon the minds of this respectable audi- ence, while they convene to celebrate the day of our rxattional birth. _ Wltat 11etv,“se11sations do We feel, when we behold the sun of Liberty, andthe glory and splendor of our Sovereignty it and Indie-» penclence, through the cloud which lnangs over our heads, and threatens the Temple of’ Free.- dom It s v s ‘l i , Since the achievement of our independence, we have experienced many important changes in our body politic, unknown to former ages, With» A A out eonvulsing the vital princibles of a Republican Government. Different parties have arisen under different names ‘; ‘ and some have remained, in prin-— ciplei and practice, radically the same. Amused by the alluring temptations of office,‘ and its con~ eomitant emoluments, they are fast bustlingidovvn the tide of time into the gnlph of oblivion, per... haps, to make room for others to arise, destroying a one another, and by themselves destroyed ! Sue» t eess has crowned the exertiotis of alxnost ball: And the head of the last is about to give up the helm of governrnent to unknown hands, tttioesed on the agitated ooehn of uxmertainty. t «Q» We are threatened within and without; Foir. eign, and powerful nations have assumed a bold and imperious tone. They would advise, and may I not say, even idirfiect our government, what part to act in the great political drama, anal conflict of nations. But the passing events of time are with the omniscient Jehovah. A Insurrections have taken place ; andltreasone have been plotted in, our lancl 1 Violent political A partieé have been formed in our government; and have endangered our internal ‘peace and union.
