"TILE DIGNIFIED MAN."
Boston possesses an Essayist by the name of Wiiirpt.e:
nut a writer by profession, but, a merchant 'who, when
not engaged in calculating interest, or studying tlio mys-,
teries of commerce and the like, employs his leisure in
writing down his thoughts for the public. And very cor

Man ii! Dignity: ,
''Ainoig the countless deceptions passed off on our
shaiti-ridden race, let me direct your attention to the de
ception of dignity, as it is ono which includes many oth
ers. Among those terms which have long ceased to
have any vital. moaning, the word dignity deserves a dis- 1
graceful prominence. No word has fallen so readily as
this into the designs of cant, imposture and pretence;
none has played so well the part of verbal scarecrow, to
frighten children al all ages and both sales. kis at once

der which duncodom sneaks and skulks- .Most of the
men of dignity, who awe or born their more genial breth- -

their insensibility for wisdom, their dullness for depth;
and of concealing imbecility.of intellect under haughti
ness of manner. 'Their success in this small game is
one of the stereotyped satires on mankind. - Once strip
from these pretenders their stolen garments, once discon
nected their show of dignity from their reel meanness,
and they would stand shivering and defenceless, objects
of the tears of "pity, or targets for the arrows.of scorn.—
But it is the misfortune of this world's affairs. that offi

spise pretence. should ho filled by respectable stupidity
and dignified emptiness, to whom pretence is the very
soul of life. Manner triumphs over matter; and through

and the newspaper& exhibit to us the spectacle of a heavy

solemnly trilling away the interests of the state, the dupe
of his owdehstinate ignorauce, and engaged. year after

You have all seen that inscrutable dispensation known
by the name of the dignified gentlemen; an embodied

cussing it with all due:anergY, and interest. The news
by the Hiberninin tineither column. it was confidently
calculated would decide the question, but that bopo hes
not been realized. Aiello:1 betweu the Porte and the
Czar stand just as they did at the last arrival, though the
belief is expressed that, taking into .consideration the
stand taken by England and Franco on tho side of the
Turk, the ItusslaU 114 r wilt pocket *thO tdrront for . th e

spring front, the "Wish being, father to the tholight."
The question. thou, of the chances and advantages of a
European war, still stands open for discussion. Upon this
question, tvo find in the Boston Post a long article dia.
cussing it in all its bearings. flip writer sets out with
saying that the feet of E nglund and France volunteering
their aid against Russia, without being appealed to by
either the Turk or the exiled Hungarians, (for Kossuth's
appeal to Lord Falutersidu had not been received when
the English fleet was placed at the disposal of the Turk)
opens a now era in the history of Europa. Whether the
results are'to be beneficial or not remain to be 'seen. It
is difiCcult to reconcile this prompt and 'vigorous conduct
of England and Franco with their recent shameful indif
ference to the policy of Russia in Austria and Hungary,
and while one cannot' fail to admire them 'now, he is
forced to coodoion thein for their conduct • before. And
iu condentning "those powers for failing do what they
ought in la!f-drfenca, we must cdadeinn the United States
also for failing to do what they ought in behalf offreadent
anal cicili:ntion. If the'United States had treated the al
liance of !Lassie and Austria according to its true elle
- racier, as u combination of despots end despotism, for
the overthrow of republiCanisin and had done nothing
more than made itself the medium through which
liberty and civilization might have uttered their protest
against tyranny and barbarism, Hungary might baize
been saved. Rutin addition to this if Englund and Fiance
had surd to Russia, you must not interfere with the in
ternal afl:lits of any of the continental states, Hungary
certainly would have been saved. If there be any
solution of the diflitilty to which wp have alluded it is to
be found in the fact that France and England ere attain
ed. Their offers of assistance to the Sultan do not pm
coed from any,
,regard to Turkey or to the Hungarian re
fugees. They have quietly observed the 'alliance of
I Russia and Austria for the subjugation of Hungary 7—and
they have also observed the consummation of that pur
-1 peso. They witnessed the bankruptcy of its treasury,
when a loan, which might, and in case of succors, Cot •
Wilily would have been repaid, would have secured her
independence. They saw without einet'on her territory
overrun by the CeSsacks, her armies hemmed in and
downed to certam:dufeat, her fortresses and cities .sur•
rendered to the invader, and above all her women, whose
heroi4in and devotion have given a real existence to what
was before the conception only, of the poet—subjected to
.eatment which Would have rcwkred more hurrible,the
worst practices "of savago NVas christian Hungary
baits worthy of sympathy th i rin Mohammedan Turkey!
If not, thou why was Hungary iiegieted, and why is
Turkel geptally presaacad with um,rs of ru:sistance?
Wu know of no answer but whatt,is contained in the
facts that England and It'aticu are ruled by enemies of
republicanism, and that they sympathized With the decla
ration of the czar, that it was his mission to put down
revolution. So fair as known no nation questioned 'the
doctrines; milwersive as it is to all human right, llitt tho
despot might announce himself as the missionary of tho
sword, and pledge his power to tlio maintenance of eve
ry existing government. If at tho moment the Russian
troops crossed the frontier of Poland. the western nations
had declared their determination to support Hungary, the
contest would have been at an end—the land of the Mag
yars would have boon free. They chose, however, that
revolution should he put down and tho prospect is that
they will have their reward. ThD policy of tho French
hi.eitunast unfortunate for the caus'ia of
hbeity, thought its Mune resuns uwi nut C7-113,9,0411u
the anticipations Edits authors. Had Franco avoided the
Italian campaign, Hungary might have saved herself
against the combined foe. The presence o f the French
army in Italy relieved Austria from the necessity of
maintaining thirty or forty thousand troops in that coun
try, and thus tho republicanism of Franco is - guilty not
only of having crushed the republicans of Rome, but of
having furnished this vast fordo for the subjugation of
Hungary. %Valiant French assistance the Austrian ar
my would have found itself cut ow from its own govern
ment anti territory, and would either have surrendered or
abandoned the papal asthorities to their fate.
.1
In either case Hungary would have been benefitted.
Tho overthrow.of the Aust.: ian army, or its expulsion
from Italy, would havo left the Romans free to coope
rate with their brethren on the Danube; and, if aided by
loans of money from England, the Ode of Russian bar
barity would have been turaod back, and the groat con
test been decided under more favorable circumstances
than will hereafter exist. If France and Russia had
formed an alliance for the subjrigation of Hungary a
better plan could surly have been devised. History fur
nishes no example of a nation so early,and so fatally false
as France "to the Principles on which its government was
established.
Franco having than boon so, faithfully and so suc
cessfully .the ally of Rui,sia in putting down revolution
in Hungary, which should have been mado the battle
ground for the liborties of Western Europe, why does
she now, in union With her ancient and unforgiven
enemy, England, proposo.an alliance with Turkey, whose
treatment of the refuges is neither milder nor morn
Immanco than the Austrian? It certainly i s not regard
for Turkey. And it is equally certain that it is not regard
for the refugees, for nations 'which aided in, or wero in -
difforent to the subjugation of twelvo millions of people
would hardly havo been moved by the distresses of a few
hundreds. The truth is they are alarm all for their own
safety. Russia is about to placo one foot upon the Adriatic
and the Moditeiane, whilo the other rests upon the Baltic
sea and the Ardtic ocean. •
At the commencement of the - campaign Russia con
trolled ono-seventh of the globe, and if hercareor is un
checked she will march rapidly to unlimited power on
the continent of Europe, and, with republicanism under
her foot and thrones at her disposal, oho will seek dy diplo
macy and stratagem, if not by force, to impede the pro
gross of the United States. On the continent the
czar will find no obstacle which he may not overcome,—
nnd it,will be reserved for England or the United States
to interpose a permanent chock to his career.
Taking into consideration those things it is to bo hoped
that Russia will persist in the demand, unjust though it
be, and that Franco and England may be equally doter -
mined in aiding Turkey. A contest thus commenced,
and prosecuted on so gigantic a scale, could hardly fail
to he beneficial to Europe. In the tumult which this
war of deposte and enemies of republicanism would
create, Italy, Hungary and Poland would have some
chance of regaining their, freedom.- At•least the influ
ence of Austria Would bo diminished and Russia taught
that her power was not invulnerable. Or it might happen
thattlie existing governments,would be baukrunted by the
enormous expenses of the war. While thou wo are
enemies of repudiation, we cannot but believe, that there
ore evils Infinitely more dreadful; and it is highly proba
ble that insolvency and repudiation would be positively
beneficial to the, masses of Europe. Repudiation would
tend to destroy the nobility, who, after all, are the great
obstacle to tho acquisition of .power by the people, and
might lead to the, reorganization of the governments upon
anortreconotnical and of course more 'liberal system.

TIIZ WAR or 1812.—1 t is nunderstood that the officers
of this war with Englund intend applying to the next
Codgress for bounty and extra pay. It has been award
ed to those of our f;llow-citizens who volunteered in that
war, and joined their countrymen in the struggle, who
hud previously emigrated to Canada—to better their con
dition, perhaps. They received by act of Congress, ap
proved sth March, 1819, a bounty in land equal to their
relative rank, with three mouths 'extra pay. , Most as
suredly, then, those of our citizens who remained in
their country and manfully pressed forward to the field
of strife, paid their taxes for the support of government
at a time when the finances wore at slow ebb, and jeep
aided their private affairs,, should not go, as many of
them have, to their graves unrequited. It isknown that
the officers in the war with Mexico, in addition to thoir
regular.pay, received, three months' extra pay, and the
soldiers their bounty inland, as well as three months' ex
tra pay. It maybe noted that a number- of the officers
who volunteered in the war of 1812, joined their coun
trymen in the war with Mexico, and received three
months' extra pay. Why, then, I ask, should not their
copetriots of 1812 fare alike. with them? Much more
