Commodore Truxton ha 3 with unrivalled prowess, obtained for the arms of America, a second fplcndid triumph. The glory he has acquired, and the ineltimable services he has rendered to bis country, do most natur ally expose him to the fulled force of demo cratic calumny and malice. It is to be ho ped, therefore, that the rdhereuts to the federal cause, that cause which he has so amply contributed to rescue from fupinenefs, and re-invigcrated into life, will no longer continue their negleft of an entcrpi uing,and gallant man ; but, by advancing t-> join him, on that ground he has so nobly atTum ed. defpel the vapors of uncertainty, and the mills of pacification. " An old officer who was at the siege of Savannah," it desired to back with his name the affcrtion Se makes conerriiin<j the cour ageous conduct of tbc Orattr of the Human Race, on that occasion. Of all the variout departments of civil eeconomy, the nioft essential to the well being of a state, is, unquellionably, that of education. Amongst an enslaved people, indeed, like those of Great Britain, whose yoke we happily call off, education can be but of little value ; iince the light which it imparts, serves only to aggravate d man's slavery by imparting t® him the knowledge that it is in his power to be free ; and thole univcrfitics of Oxford and Cambridge, and Edinburgh, Dublin, &c. &c. do thus sub serve no earthly puipofe, but to fader de fenders and supporters of that miserable slavery, under which they gained all thrir acquirements. Thus what is given, is al ways received back in full, and thus a fyf tem of slavery is propagated and prolonged. But in a free country, like ours, its impor tance is above all estimation. For although it is not lieeeflary to a man's own peace, that he Ihould feed on the delights which are bred in a book, yet it cannot well be imagined liovv the welfare of a great commu nity can re <:ompafled,out by rearing up thro the means of vell-ordeied univerlities, or otherwise, men of sense and virtue, on whom, in these dark and dreary days of ig norance and dsfolation to repose for coun sel, and rely for our deliverance.

In truth, if recovering from in a&ivity, you would atTume the freedom and spirit of your anciftors ; if you would be your own soldiers and your own command ers, no longer considering your affairs in mercenary hands, the world might, once more, behold yon mating a figure worthy of Americans.
