EtiZJ Cons. DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE 4. , .1.. w IN CONGRESS, IPhiladc,iphia, July 4; 1776. When, it the course of human events, it be comes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the. pow ers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and nature's God entitle them,, a' decent respect to the opinions Of mankind requires, that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. - We hold these truths •to be' self-evident : that all men are created equal that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalien able rights ; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments arc instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the con sent of the governed : that whenever , any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the •people to- alter or abolish it, and to institute a new government. laying its thundation on such principles, and oronizing its powers in such harm as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dic tate, that governmenrsionestablished should not be changed for light ii,nd trawient causes ; and accordingly, all excellence hash shown, that mankind ale more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right theinselve, by abolishing the forms to which they are ac customed. But when a long train of abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it. is their duty, to throw OW such government, and to provide new guardps for their future security. such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems. of government. The history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyran ny over these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted - to a candid world. lie has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. Ile has forbidden his governors to pass laws of iminediate andpressing importance, unless suspended in LM operation, till his assent should be obtained ; and when so suspended, he has.utterly neglected to attend to them. Ile has refused to pass other laws for the accom modation of large districts of.-people, unless those people woud relinquish the right of re presentation in the legislature—a right inesti walk., to them. and formidable to tyrants only. lie has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the repository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing. them into a com pliance with has measures. Ile has dissolved 11,epresentative Houses re peatedly, for opposing, with -manly firmness, his invasions on the rights of the people. lie has refused, for a long time after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected : whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise, the St.ite remaining, in the mean time, exposed-to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within. Ile has endeavoured to prevent the popula tion of these States ; for that purpose obstruct ing the laws of naturalization of foreigners ; refusing to pass others to encourage their mi gration hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of pis tice, by refusing his assent to laws for estab lishing judiciary powers. lle - has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the Lennie of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers. to harass our people, and eat out their substance. lie has kept among us, in times of peace; standing armies, WILLItut, the consent of our e lle has affected to render the military, in dependent of, and superior to, the civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws ; giving his assent to their acts of pretended iegiAation Fur quartering large bodies of armed troops among For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment for any nitird, rs hick they should commit on the inhabit:4las of these States : Fur cuffing our trade ‘v all aIL part.s of ill •w• r • For imposing taxes on us without our con sent.: - For depriving us, in many cases, of the ben efits of trial by Jury: For transporting us beyond seas to be - tried for lActended oilenees: For abolishin- the free sy , tern of English laws in a nelg 11111%:111 fin art)itt:in. a' It) L; : l ii anti .1.1 :11-4,-co;0,111.

Ile has excited- domestic insurrections a mongst - us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers — the merciless Indian savages. Whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, and conditions. In every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms: our repeated petitions have been an swered only by repeated injury. A prince. whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have we been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them, from time to time, of attempts by their legisla ture to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the cir .cumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably in terrupt our connexions and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and consanguinity. 'We must, therefere, ac quiesce in the necessity which denounces our separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind—enemies in war, in peace friends. We, therefore, the representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world, for the rectitude of our intention, do, in the' name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare, that these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States :that they are absolVed troni . all al legiance to the British crown, and that all po litical connexion between them and the State of 6reatafiritain is, and ought to be,'totally dissolved ; and that, as free and independent States, they have full power to levy war, con chide peace, contract alliances, establish com merce, and to do all other acts and things independent States may of right do. And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Provi dence, wt: , , mutually pledge to each ,other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

A Crunn.s TYrocniArincm, Ennon. —Professor Trench in his latest work on the English lan guage, points out a curious typographical error in the 20th verse of the 2:A chapter of Mat "thew.--The words "which strain at a gnat and swallow a camel," the professor thinks contain a misprint, which having been passed over ict4 the editinn of 1611,_ has held its ground ever since. The translators intended to say "which strain ma a gnat and swallow a camel," that being the correct rendering of the original, as appears in Tynsdale's and Crannuer's trans lations. both of which have "strained mgt." It was the custom of the stricter Jews to strain their wine, vinegar, and other portables, through linen or gauze, lest unawares they should drii.k down some little unclean inNect as a gnat, and thus transgress the Levitical law. It was to this custom the Saviour alhor cd, intending to say that the while they and Phan. hile they strain Out a Own their drink, would yet swallow-a-carpel at . a. gulp.- -- F L _Ti' In olden times the ladie-: used to kvenr It ad dress of very unsi L ditly shape. which they called - a "top-knot."

CR A W FORD, JOHN P. BYERS, \VM. CRAIN. Supreme Court in Bane, 11.t1Unitinctw,. June, 1855 Talbot vs. Col veri .Ry an ante-nuptial agreement, the husband covenanted that the wife should have her prop erty to her own use as long as she lived, and dispose of it by her will to whom she pleased; and further covenanted with the wife, her ex ecutors and administrators, that he would not sell or ()them ise convert to his own use any part of .her property ; there was also another provision that he should be indemnified out of her estate for any debts he might have to pay for her. noa --That upon the death of the wife,-in testate and possessed of personal property, the husband was entitled to take it under the in testate :wt, - there being nothing in the ante nuptial agreement tti"prevent its operations. The opinion of the Court - was delivered by Black, J. A married wou►an died intestate; and posses sed of personal property. The question is whether it goes to her husband or to her collat eral heirs.. The law gives it, to the husband'. unless the other parties can show some special fact which takes the case Out of the rule. they have tried to do. There was ,an agrue u►ent belbre triarnag,e by which the husband covenanted that. the wife should have her property to her own use as long as she lived, and dispose of it by her will to whom she pleased. lie also bound himself not to sell or convert to his own use :my portion of it.. The husband might have agreed to 'rue a - marriage articles irs would have cut oil from the succession to his wife's goods alter her, death, by limiting them to other persons. 'The promise to let,her have the separate tiSe of her property. means no kind of provision about the siateession. The agreement that it shall go to whomsoever she pleases to' designate as her legatee, is not a covenant that her husband will give it to her relatives if she makes no will- She had the power• to make the will but !bite did not exercise it. The presumption is that, she was Kttisfied •with the disposition which the law would make. She probably would have bequeathed all she had to her lu►s band, it she had nut known that he would take it anyhow. what. title do the next of kin claim the property- now• in dispute ? Not by the mar ria;:e 'articles, for there they are not so much as intentioned or alluded to. Not by any gift of the a•ite during her life, for no such thini is pretended. Nor by the intestate laws of the ttitate, for they give it to the husband. They, have no title attill, and yet they must show ii good title before they can demand it. The plaintiffsjely, much on the fact that the covenant of the husband nut to convert the wife's goods was made directly to her e.tecti tors and administrators. Without such a cov enant, expressed or implied, the others would have been► nugatory. She could not sue hint it'_she• had a hundred covenants ; anal her pow er to mirage a will would have been worthless if her exventor or administrator c. i. a. could not have brought aim action to compel him to account her any property of hers which he sold or converted to his own use dining her life. We think this no reason for believing that the parties intended wore by the mtkrriage settle ment than what they said in words. The husband also covenanted that he would not at any time thereafter, sell, or otherwise convert to his own use, any part of her prop erty. If this were a sound argument against the dekindant'sjight to take under the intes tate laws, it winild be equally good to show that. he could not take under a will, but tt is not presented that the latter proposition is true. We must either suppose that this cov enant simply provides against a conversion by the husband of the wife's property. injurious to her rights as the separate and Eol c owner, or else we must g to the wild length of declar ing that it rented him totally incapable of ever getting, having or holding anything that was hers, however clear has title to it might al terwards bcouine. There is another provision in the articles, of which something was said at the bar. It was ~greed that he should be indemnified out of her estate fOr any debt 4 he might have to pay for her. The husband secing that. he had given his wife absolute control iVirt her property during the euverture and di s c . :7dß power to dis pose an- by will, and knowing- also that he tr a:•,.nererthelesS, liable for her debts, thought propel to reserve the right to demand rein bursement for all he might pay in case she should will what she had to another persou.

B--- and myself were scated.in a fashionable saloon of our town, in dulging in the cool luxuries which the propri etors of the' establishment knew so well how to prepare, and chatting the' while -upon such subjects as fancy and caprice suggested, a tall, limber looking fellow, about twenty-three. made his appearance, and after looking about. him for some time in bewilderment and doubt, seated himself at a table close by the one at which we were sitting. _ The young man was apparently a stranger and from the country ; and the illuminated sign, with ."ice cream," and "confectionaries," ar,c., blazoned thereon, had evidently taken him in. - Knowing the doctor to have a great propensity for natural joking, 1 turned to see what ()fleet this new arrival would have upon him, and one glance at his restless twinkling eye, satisfied me that there would be sport. After sitting some time, as if uncertain how to proceed, the young man plucked up courage to address-us, and inquired whether he could "get some leo cream and a txmple of confection aries ;" stating a the sane time that ho had "never been at a canawl afore, and- didn't know how people acted at sick places." lie was informed by the doctor, that if he Would ring the, small bell which Stood upon the table his wishes would be gratified. The green 'tin did as he was directed, and, in due time was served with the ice cream, &c. After eyeing for a • few minutes the article beliwe him, lie took the spoon from the glass, took a. small quantity of the cream and put it . on• the tip of his tongue ; and theft looked round the room with an air of satistimiloa and delight. Soon, however, another idea seemed to sti ike him he rammed the spoon deep into the glass, took it out heaped, - and in a moment its con tents disappeared. At this instant, 1 felt a twitch at my side— the next moinent the-doctor was on. his feet— had clutched my band convolsiiely, and with one hand pointing towards the victim, almost, screeched : "Sho?king! dust young num is eating icc cream raw."' I hewn went ice cream, spoon and confection aries and table upon the door; out leaped the victim at. least ten foot tomwds the middle of the room, gaspinv for breath—eyes protruding from their sockets -and countenance exhibiting marks of the greatest helplessness.,ln a mo the doctor was by his side—fet his pulse —unbuttoned his coat, waistcoat and his shirt collar, as if to admit fresh' air : then gently pushing him into the chair4.otitmenced fanning him with his coat. It ‘it . tie , thon that the vic tim's tongue first beca.me. + Woseited, and with an imp oring look, - ifaireitspered - , — hall scre - ectied • "Oh, kin I live ?" Upon tins the doctor looked mysterious, felt his pulse again, examinedins tongue, atol then in a solemn tune replied : "It may be, young man, that by implicitly following my directioi.s, you sant yet' escape the consequences of your rashness and Why. I would advise you to—" "Anything, I'll do anything you tell me, so as 1 kin git over this spell, and Lind my way home again." "yell, then, sir, take off your coat.' The young man did so, "Tic a handkerchief about you." lie was obeyed. "And now, sir, go to the door,-run three tunes around this square with all the might that is in you, and then come back to me, and I will .tell you what further to do." The :young man vanished, and 'we resumed our seals ; in a few ininuter4, however, he re tinned, pulling and blowing, and apparently in better spirits. "Now," linid the doctor, "do you put, on your coat ; button it up clome to the ohm : go to your lodging place ; and turn into bed im• medintely and let me advise. you, young man, that hereafter, before you undertake; 10 eat ice cream, see that it is properly prepayed ; and let me particularly charge you, (aol here he assumed a very serious air) never again do you (amp jo rOl trr cfcalst rale? " The young man stain mered forth his thanks, and then left,--we followed soon after. 'A SLIGIIT : MIST/UM—A. young lady out west, who swished to have the room of a log house to appear to the best advantage, on a certain occasion, had mune trouble in keeping a:large dog outside the door. After having turned hint out for the third or fourth time, she heard a slight tap upon the door, which she supposed to be the dog's paw, and cried out, "lkise, you old dog, you may rap as long as you've a mind to, but I won't let you in."
