To inflame the passions and to create animosity, various subjects have been successively seized upon, and pressed into the service of the revolutionists—­Every quarrel however trivial is noticed—­every seed of discord however small is nourished to disseminate murmurs and to further the great object.-Various classes of the community are told, with apparent anxiety for their welfare, that they are oppressed, and that a new order of things must arise, or that they will be enslaved.  New subjects are started as old ones cease to operate, and thus all that ingenuity and art, industry and perseverance, can devise or effect is accomplished.  Thus, that numerous and respectably body of Christians called Episcopalians have been told, and repeatedly told, that the more numerous denomination were seeking to deprive them of their just and equal rights, and to subject them to the tyranny of an overbearing majority—­These tales were reiterated till their authors found them useless from their folly and falsehood.  At another time the Baptists are addressed by a set of men who denied the reality of any religion and the most earnest yearnings for their welfare.  They tyranny of the Legislature was painted in horrid colors, and they were exhorted to lend their aid to vindicate the cause of the oppressed.  Those who conscientiously believe that no taxes ought to be paid for the support of religion, and those who wish that religion might no more infest the residence of men, were addressed with considerations adapted to their respective cases.  At one time men destitute of property are seduced by the alluring doctrine of universal suffrage—­then the farmer is told that taxes are too high on land, and, with the same breath, the mechanic is sagely informed, that the poll tax should be repealed, and the burden fall back on the land holder.
