A country, fit to receive and nourish the feeds of this precious liberty, was only to be fought for in the trans atlantick world :—'Tvvas there, amongst an infant people, pure, and uncorrupt, that tbe higher virtues were to be found, fuita ble to carry into effect, those speculative truths; against which ignorance and li a bit ual error have waged continual warfare ; —t ruths, which from the pride and arrogance of the feudal system, have been difdaitifully inserted in the lift of Uto pian opinions, fit only for the dreams of the phi lanthropist, and not for the practical purposes of government.—After the fuccefsful experience of America, it was dill difficult to copy the ex ample and introduce dniong the degenerated nati ons of Europe, this invaluable discovery of the new world ; it required the enlightened energy and unremitting efforts of a numerous people, to support a doclrine which was combated by such powerful enemies, and opposed by such in veterate prejudices.

Among the numerous inltanees of patriotic intrepidity and'confiltency, which the late crisis produced, this great character (lands unrivalled—his pi omp titnde and decision on this emergency, in taking such measures as the founded wisdom, and molt consummate prudence could didtate, evince that t he vigor of his mind, and his political resources, are adequate both to the high station he fills, and the most trying exigencies that can occur. An eminent and experienced phyfttjian of New-' York, whose observations appeal in the Daily Advertiser of that city of the 26th inlt. speaking of the effetfls of ripe fruits in their season upon the human frame, convinced of their fafety and real utility, fays, that he has never failed to re commend them even in those cases 'wherein they have been supposed 10 do harm.

For if the monied nte'll re tire from trade, who is to carry it 011 ?

A few needy individuals in trade, are not equal to discharge the burden, and if the monied men defifl from lending a helping hand, and heave the bnfineft on the shoulders of others, it is pro bable the revenue will fall vattly fhorr of an swering their quarterly demands.
