The British whigs ate powerful conju rors. They have "'transmogrifi-id'' Gran ny Harrison's splendid mansion at North Bend into a dirty Hog cabin," for political effect. This enchanted Hog cabin" groans under 'coon skins," "skunk skins," and "mink skins," cider gourds" anil clou's, strings of "red pepper" pods, and God Al mighty knows what. They have changed the "old Granny's" choice wines anil ex otic liquors by a sort of presto political process into Hiaru cider by the ntrreJ, which he draws, sujigs and swigs, am draws and swigs agun, from a gourd, or sucks as it were f om the bung with a sim lin s'alk or reel. They have "honey fuggled" the "old Granny" into a "mon s er-atious" hero all of a sudden, and have nominated her for the next presidency. They have caged her in a Hog cabin' since her nomination, to prevent her from talking with the Hiuge paws" about 4 -nutters and things in general," connected vn ilh governmental affairs, lest she might commit herself and throw all the abolition fat in the fire," being in her dotage, hav- ing arrived to the years of superannuation That the (o!d Granny" is not very young, i vprv fM'iilptit frnm tho rircnrrmt:inf' tt..t .ho o f,, if (Whir,! Miiob. vt. ,m! she bore the "black cockade" during the 'reign of terror," and was an olfice holder under the monarchist John Adams, "alien and sedition" memory. The federalists or British whigs have never but once had the ascendancy, since the foundation of the government, which was about forty years ago, under the admi nistration of the elder Adams. But in or der that ye the "huge paws" of the pie sent day may form a faint idea of that reign, very aptly termed the "reign of terror," 1 have thought proper herewith to give ye a few beautiful specimens of their doings while in power; which only iasted one Presidential term, (four years.) The people becoming indignant at such usurpations and tyranny, rose in the majes ty of their streng'h and hurled the would be despots from their "high esta'e," at the next presidential election; which resulted in the election of the "great apostle of lib erty," the "father of democracy," the im mortal Jetferson. Here follow the specimens of British whiggery, while in power forty years ago, during the "reign of terror;" w hich will doubtless be revived in the election of 'Granny Harrison," should the "huge paws" disregard their own interests so far as to elevate her to the presidential chair. Grannies are all despotic, whether male or female, and always will be, unless there be a change in the nature of man; which is not probable, as long as this world stands. Specimen, No. 1. On Wednesday, 3rd of April, 1799, about 15 of the Lancaster troop of horse, commanded by Captain Montgomery, came to my Iioumc, and hav ing secured my workmen, to prevent their assisting me, observed to them, that if I was desirous to keep or preserve my house, 1 should fell the pole erected in my yard; which was generally denominated a liber ty polef though destitute of the customary -.ymbois, the cap and flag. Like highway men, with a pistol in one hand and a sword in the other, they approached me, threatened to dispatch me instantly if I ut tered one word! and forced the tobacco pipe from me with which 1 was regaling myself, and broke it, saying I had no right io enjoy this amusement. My wife met with similar treatment, who having by her a child cf two years of age, in consequence of her fright occasion ed by this their disorderly conduct, fell sick and continued indisposed several days. Another one of my children was kicked and spurned to the ground. They then took my axe and cut down the pole, and af terwards departed, carrying with them the axe, my property. JACOB G0SS1N. Sworn and subscribed before me, May 18, 1799. PETER NAGLE. Note. Mr. Gossin wasa Swiss Republi can, a very substantial and much respected citizen; his occupation was that of a black smith, he sustained the character of an upright honest man. His residence and workshop were situated in South Sixth street, in this borough, nearly opposite to the tannery owned by Abraham Kerper. Specimen, No. 2. On the 3rd of April, 199, a certain person by the name of Brown, came to my house and requested "ne to give him anxe. I went and bro't him one; as soon, however, as I came to he outer door, I perceived a party of the Lancaster troop of horse, about 16 or 17 Through my body, at the sune time point ing then at mv hreast. and cursing them- j S'. Ives, that i that in case 1 made the smallest he- station, they would beat me in a manner ti . woljcr make me renent mv non-com- pliance. In fine, I was forced to go and cut at the pole. RUDOLPH LAMPE.. Sworn bifore me, May 18, 1799. PETER NAGLE. Mr. Lampe was then already "a man well advanced in years; he owned and kept the tavern at the fir?t gate on ihe Philadelphia turnpike, now known as Fry's tavern. Specimen, No. 3. On ti e 20th of April, 1799, John Fry, Reichard, and three more of ihe Lancaster t ioop of hot se, came to my printing office, while I was closely engaged at work. One of them desired to speak a word with me; I stepped aside with him, and begged to know his business; he then demanded ihe author of a piece, published some lime previous in the Heading E gle. 1 observed to him, that it was not cus tomaty with printers to give their authors' mmis, udes previously consulted, and their consent obtained. That as I neither consulted with, nor obtained their consent, i ill did not think myself at liberty to com- jptV wnn nis requ-'si. i ney nowever in sisted upon tn's information oein given tlv?m. 1 persisted in the refusal. When they found I was not to be shaken from my purpose, they desired me to go with them to the captiin. 1 teplied, I have no busi ness with the captain, and therefore see no reason why I should wait upon him; and if he has any business with me, I conceive it is his place to call upon me. And further observed, if I had been guilty of any LV ime r vltion of any law,on account of the aforesaid publica ion, our municipal law, ins no iloubt provided ample redress;; let that be pursued, and I will submit to the decision without one word of corn- plaint Hereupon they damned their sou's, that I should be taken to the captain and drawing their swords, laid hold of me. r'at the imminent risk of my garments be ing rent Irom my bo ly, and with violence forced me out of my office soldier-like damning themselves it I did not proceed instantly without the smallest resistance, they would, with their swords, split my skull, cut off my head, &c. Terrified by this rufiian-like conduct, and unprepared with any weapon of defence, 1 was forced to Michael Wood's inn, where the captain lodged; and being uhered into a room, filled with glorious peacemakers, I was ac costed thus politely: "Is this the damned rascal? Is this the damned son of a bitch? &c. His throat should be cut; let him be hung; cut him to pieces," &c. The pre sence of the captain at length relieved me from those pleasing observations; who ad dtcssing me, asked whither I would in form him the author's name? 1 replied, I h.-.ve no author of whom 1 can inform vou. Well, -ays he, if you do not comply with this request, we will heat you in such a matintr, tint you shall feel the e ffects of our disph asure for six months at least, if not during your life. 1 returned, I have already told you, that 1 had no author's name, of which 1 could make a discovery; and further inform yTou, that the facts were handed to tne by the very people w hom the troop had abued and insulted in that manner, which 1 arranged and gave public ly in my paper. Then the captain order ed his praiseworthy troops to take me to the market house, and ordered the trum peter, the common whipper, to give me twenty-live lashes. As soon as the orders were delivered, the troop, obedient to the orders of the captain, loaded their pistols and forced me to the market house, and there desired me to snip. I refused, whereupon the greater part of those who had surro jnded me, which were if not the whole company, though the greater par t of it, wiih drawn swords, swore if 1 did not strip instantly they wou.d cut me to pieces. I then pulled off my est, and the trumpe ter gave me to the best of my recollection, six strokes with a cowhide, when one ob served, it was sufficient JACOB SCHNEIDER. Affirmed and subscribed befoie ine, May IS, 1799. PETER NAGLE. Here then, my poor hard working friends of the real "log cabins" of the country, (not of the cities) are a few specimens of the "reign of terror," the "federal reign," forty years ago, under the administration of the monarchist John Ad ams, who "Granny Harrison" warmly supported and he'd office under, and like wise wore the badge of royalty and of loy alty, the "black cockade." Should ye so far disregard (as I've said before,) your own interests, as to elevate the old "petti coat Granny,"' alias "haid cider," .aboli tion, "blacK cockade" cnidi ate to the presidential chair, in lieu of Mat tin Van Buren, the ledural 4 -.te ign of terror" will certainly be revived at any rate, the at tempt will be made. There is living proof ot it stand up Mr. tintenden and an swer: Will not your "gag resolutions" be revived? Echo answers, "be levived," and passed into a law and enforced with ioumoiu more rigor than ever was the "alien and sedition law," during the black cockade "reign of terror" forty years ago of four years duration.
