Frome THE BEE--A Republican Paper printed at New London, Connecticut.

ON the 4th of March, 1802, the citizens affembled at Killingworth & commemorated the ever memorable 4th of March, 1801--a day worthy to be engraven on the heart of every American ; the day when our illuftrious patriot afcended the chair of ftate.

At 12_ o'clock a cannon was fired, after which the following toafts were drank, each being announced by the difcharge of a cannon, under the direction of capt. Noah Lefter.

1. The people of the United States, free and happy. May they be actuated by pure principles of patriotifm, and by their fuffrages proclaim to the world their independence.

2. The Prefident of the United States--the patriot, the hero and the ftatefman May he ever merit the approbation of his conftituents, and remain fhielded from the darts of calumniating ariftocrats.

3. The Vice Prefident of the United States. May he inflexibly remain the friend of republicanifm, and a dread to the diforganizing phalanx.

4. The memory of George Wafhington. May he never be forgotten, but held in facred remembrance by all.

5. The Congrefs of the U. States. May they continue energetically to contend for the rights of man, emancipate the citizens from all unneceffary burthens, & erect the tree of liberty over the afhes of departing tyranny.

6. The 4th of July '96. May it ever be venerated and held in perpetual remembrance by the fons of Columbia.

7. The 17th of February, 1801, that ever memorable epoch which evinced to the world the practicability of a republican government, and eftablished American freedom on the rock of independence.

8. The 4th of March 1801. Victory without arms ; the cloudlefs day which fecured to the citizens freedom of election, freedom of religion, freedom of fpeech and freedom of the prefs.

9. The militia well difciplined ; our only reliance in peace, and for the firft moments of war until regulars fhall relieve them.

10. A judiciary made for the benefit of the people, not the people made for the benefit of the judiciary.

11. The clergy. May they honor their profeffion, and not permit the facredotal garb to be ftained by a deviation therefrom.

12. Connecticut. May fhe once more affert her republican fentiments, and thereby evince that her recent errors ought to be imputed to the head and not to the heart.

13. Our navy. May it cruife in defence of our liberty, and prove the deftruction of tyrants and fea robbers.

14. The tree of liberty. May its branches extend over the whole earth and every perfon tafte of its fruits.

15. Ariftocracy. May it find no afylum in this land of liberty, but be driven into obfcurity by the fuffrages of the fons of freedom.

16. The kifs of Judas, the hypocrite's paint, and pharifee's prayer on the phiz of ariftocracy--May they no longer betray or delude.

After which the citizens retired to the houfe of Mr. Samuel Crane, where they partook of a fplendid and plentiful repaft, with the greateft hilarity, conviviality, decency and mirth.
