hy pot etiend it to all citiaenaf Ir-atrad '
saying tltat three or four aet of men ah'tiW

and (oniinue lo think, that it ia an absurdi'y.
too glaring to nettd any comment, althongli
it may line been " aanctioncd bv fner

in direct opposition to the third section of the

ot lb -9 continue the same act, if the Cona'i
luiion was uoi exprtss on the subject? Thr
appeal is made to the fieling of tbe collec
ted wisdom oi the State to know " what
benefit could be derived by pi-erting tlii-m
into tbe militia service at thia tim 7" la this

create a vortex open to the must appalline;
ideas not esceeded by the awful Calamity of

Why verily tbe -Quakers, Moravians, ..Dun
kards, tc. have enjoyed an exclusive and
hereditary pcivelege for twenty tour years,
and now are calii d . on to muster or pay an
equivalent',, If we inquire into the causes of
the d. hciency ol our military system, we
shaft not find that the Legislative have
mod Bed the nnlilia laws, or that they have
done awav the soietnn engatrrment entertd
into by the oath taken, but that ' originaus
In the House ot Assentoly tn the sppomtment
otothcers. Men who never had a pretence
to military talents, put in noiumalioii for
field olitcers, and appointed by tbe Leeiala
ture. wunoui any anuwicugc oi lueir uuapn-
cation for the task; but having some popular
friend tn the House, lUey have the appoint
nient, and proceed to treat those under their
command with utter neglect. . 1 his is the
effect of the Legislature appointing field
officers. It the respective regiment had (he
right of appointing their o Biters, they Would
be selected with a view to their military
knowledge and deportment by the men that
had to serve tinder their command, instead of
being represented in tbe appointments by
Quakers, Dunkariix, Moravian and a class' of
citizens 1 shall not name, instead ol some po

merely non.inal at tha expense of those under

Again, the House ot common are very
feelingly appealed to on the ground of tha

If those citizens that have borne the burden
and heat af the day are liable for the moral
ity of the Quakers, it would have been -ne
cetsatv that the collected wisdom of the State
had appointed an Auditor last session. We
are firm enough in our opinions, with the
authority that could be procured from uni
versal experience, to support the idea, and
conclude with the tact ttiat there are
moral characters that are not Quaker

House of Assembly to be as pure at anetla.
ths does not prove they do not have their
exceptions . There is not a doubt in my mind
but there is as tnany outbreaking Quakers
agreeable to numbers, at there are of other
societies or communities) but U is not agree,
able to their profession and discipline, and k
is their custom to disown them, and aa they
are not Quakers, although ibey were born to
inherit the blessing, agreeable to the pre-
re-.lenr laid down III their book of faith and
discipline. And where, I would ask, .is tbe
society that is not moral, arter me immoral
part are delivered up to the world, and their
names erased from their catalogue? The
orthodox Quakers lo nut, nor will they
pretend to kay that the members of their re
sptctive societies, ass general rule, are r
ligitiusly scrupulous; nor win tney pretend
to bold out and support tne ide' that they
have been collected by the pows of regen 1
