We have often adverted, Incidentally, to the fact, that the eve of every presidential election has been -thet o occasior of efforts, on the part of the Federal party, to create a panic in our country. But, in con- Sersation with a friend, lately, on the sutject of t~rßve periodical effrrts, we were led to thick that a mcd.rparticular specification of the facts, and the times of Cieir occurrence, might be more generally i satisfactory. We shall, therefore, endcayor to pre. lint a brief outline of all the leading Federal panic tioveinents, noting their several successes; and the causes which led to them. dl. is well known to an, asittainted with the poli ticAttistory of oar country, that the - first great drat of.the monarchists, and all other opponents of our Dainocratic goveinment, was made when the patriot aka Sage of Monticello was brought before his coun trymen for the highest office in their gift. On this occasion, TII33IAS Jurrca , ox, the immortal author of thiaDeciaration of Independence, (and whose on /iiiiiertion to our present form of government was, drat it wasnot as thoroughly popular 39 he conceiv ed it khOuld be,) Was deniiunced as the secret ernis miry 'Of Rbhespcirre and the jacobins of France, • whosis great aim was asserted to be, to ban ish the religion of Christ from the earth, and substitute vice and immorality in its stead.— .. Tha' atrong ground taken by that far-seeing pa diet, in favor of the purchase of all that vast ter- ritnry east of the Rocky Mountains and west of the Mississippi, and his hostility to thearrogant.pre itqiiitiiis of Great Britain,'were the pretexts % upon = whielv were founded the volumes of abuse heaped _uper(him and, his supporters : and When all other elements of opposition failed, resort was had to the Ouiet:inunous attempts at fraud, and an entire dis regard of the popular will. But with all these ef arta, Democracy triumphed, and the first four years ier4efferson's administration only proved to the peo ile ate purity of his patriotism, and the soundness of hii . & , Op MEM In the,contest which led to the triumph of Mr. .hiSidiSoti, the war was made the great subject, out of which to try and manufacture a panic. The im mense public debt that would be saddled upon the People; the injustice and impolicy of the war; the incompetent)' of the general administration; the de 'she to conciliate France; and every improbability likely toCffeCftlie. minds of thine who never think, twaiehle the assertion made by thePederal party of the mass of our countrymen)—all-things that could be imagined, calculated to deceive, and thus affect the minds' of any, 'lvbe might - be brought to believe HMS' statements, were stated by that party. The close, however, of Mr. Madison's administration, fidiftthings so happily arranged, according to their views, that they made no material opposition to Mr, Ittlarsse, who've administration was continued as the icisitid terns of that of Mr. Madison had been begun. Itlifieedle.sii, here, to review either of these peri- WdasiMffice_it to say, that a latitude of construction taf:theconstitudoa beeame sanctioned, which was pregnant with the most fatal consequences. Still a remnant rerOlued faithful to that glorious instru nitirlif titid,though differing about men, we find their Isrfigiexerted in favor of Crawford and Jackson, wkile the Federalists, and all the expediency Demo crats, or eonsereatiies of that day, united upon Adam:wand Clay, - Here,was the groundwork for an ether paniC; and this effort resulted in a fraud upon the. People, and the triumph of Federalism. in'lB.2B, Federalism reared her head, cry strurte the active industry of the country; and the.destruction of the Constitution. Then "all the ta:ents, all the wealth, all the decency of the couritty,” according to thtir . statements, were ar . rayed atilt:Mir. aide; but still the People triumphed; nod ANDREW JAcssjty, the friend of equal rights ; the defender of the Constitution, and of his country; the firm and unwavering patriot, was chosen by a majority 'unprecedented; to guide the ship of State. But his career 'vas not upon a. smooth sea; though the winds were fair. He acted for the People, and rellh'the Peopis; and. they, in their turn sustained hisi:iicipite. oil all the attempts at num of itis'op. ratietits. _The panics 01'1;1828, 1532, and 1836, fully /hour, that all the efforts of the Federal party were 4greeted . liiicilhe satee chkenel, into which their for euti.Adirort.ht.d -been directed. t attempts to o,)orate during,the preceding Neight Iteara, (Ind with their gles panic to baslithead been ineffeetual,therecamae"antt tud !t eaten the - rex:hi °prate in earnest, time and the necasitiet of the' People. uP" the _rcars ti When, in 1840, mil. crusade'against that sterlin g, and able, and pure .p‘triet, ATIXIN Van BWIEN they had the control not onlyofall the se y and'othar • r'l7perlne z coun try, but they had also eihirt.

Polk V , so often asked by Fede ral leaders, was answered by the people atthe ballot boxes; and the Favorite of Federalism was permit ted to retire to the shades of Ashland. And now we are in the midst- of the year 1848, when another periodical return of the presidential contest approaches. What : shall now constitute the theme of the Federal party, iu orderto create a panic. There i■ much food for them. "This wicked, un just, and unconstitutional war with 111exico," must, however be theii principal theme. They miy yet prime to the country, that, though they have' thus pronounced its character; they are hut declaring that which their great head has told them they knew ,they were doing when the) voted for the war. They may yet prove that they knew they were -coring a lie, in asserting it to be unconstitutional; by choosing the man, who has been foremost in sustaining it, as their file leader. Time will chow; and if either ZACHARY TAYLOR on WINFIELD Score shall be taken as the Federal standard bearer„they at once fix the brand of infamy upon both themselves and him; fiir no officer of the Government, unless more base than we can believe any one of them to be, could dare to carry Quinn order, which he believed to be in violation of that &floes instrument, to support and defend which he hai3iolemnly sworn; and no honorable man could lend himself to a party organised to defeat the constitutional- ends of his government. We shall see, shortly, cut of what material they will attempt to manufacture their next panic. Something to Think about The Racine Argus says, that—"the mass of the people in New England, and more particklarly in the manufacturing portion of it, are not as as ificy were; are not, altogether, as a people, as near on a par with one another as they were; while the rich are far richer, far more powerful, far more re moved above the level of the whole people, than they vrereliiefore the increase of manufactures to their present great extent." He might also have said, that, while there is per ceptible a great disparity in the condition of the People in certain portions of New England, as it re spent' wealth, there ii also becoming equally man'- fest a difference in their moral character, when corn pared with the earlier history of that part of our country. It cannot be that the publication of a greater number of newspapers, and the consequent greater publicity that is given to crime, makes all the difference between the condition of things now, and what they are reported to have been fitly or six ty years ago. We cannot believe that these eir curestances account for the present appearances.— Par from it. We believe that there are deep and powerful causes operating to produce this state of things; causes that, unless overcome, most end in the establishment of a monied oligarchy, if dot in monarchy or despotism. 'hat condition is most fruitful in generating im morality and vice, That of poverty, above ail o thers. And what conduces most powerfully to place the mass of our fellovr beiogsin this condition, We would unhesitatingly answer that system ,f kgrtla, Hon tchichfasters money capital instead of Lhscat, the only natural source of all pecuniary wealth!— While public opinion shall tolerate the legal enorm ity, of conferring upon:any body of men, organised fir whatever pecuniary purpose they may be, powers not enjoyed by every other man in the community, it is sanctioning a course which moat inevitably lead, to some extent at least, to the impoverishment of the rest of the community. Combinations of men, for whatever purpose, are calculated more certainty to effect the object aimed at, than any merely individual efforts can poseibty accomplish; and when, in addition to the natural power of combination is added that of legal prefer ment, legal protection and legal exemption, an ac cumulation of power is at once given vastly beyond that enjoyed or attainable other's:le. Newkogland has been, fa years, the hotbed in which to nourish all kinds of corporate schemes; and she is now be ginnirg to reap some of the fruits of her false legisla tion. Departing from the plain, simple, and unpre tending manners and customs of her carry settlers, she has long been holding out inducements to the attainment of merely individual wealth, that must, ,r not checked, rendere masa of her population no more free and independent, in a land of boasted free. dom, than the serfs of nutria or the slaves of the Sou h; for whom throughout her whole extent, ao much commisscration is manifested. Yes, we greatly fear, that, unless the legislation of a large portion of our country shall be changed, all our natural intelligence as a people, all our su perior advantage; of education, all the advantages afforded by our country and our form of govern ment, over other countries, and other governments, will be but in the name: that our boasted liberty will become merely as "a sounding brass, and a (tackling cymbal." For, though 'oar country may offer greater advantages than any other; though our people may be more intelligent and better educated than any o ther; though the political maxims upon which our form of government is based, be those of eternal truth; still, unless the subatanee shall be found to be as solid and enduring as the foundation upon which it rests, there is no hope for true and abiding liberty. Men may he intelligent, and even learned; and un less they enjoy actual equality of social and political rights, their condition must be a mere desecration of the name of liberty: and while any portion of a com- munity,are invested with a power to accumulate wealth, not enjoyed by all others, men must become dependent, subservient, and corrupt.

THE GENr.HAL SYNOD of the Evangelical Luthe ran Church in the United States, has been holding its Triennial meeting fur the last fire days, in 'this city. Many facts of interest have been elicited, nerving to show the rapid growth of this denomination among us. Their clergy, now numbering about 850, Stand high in the scale of respectability and intelligence. They have under their charge lascr congregations, to which are attached 200,000 member.. Their yearly increase by immigration is about 20,000 and by membership, 8,000. They also possess threeln corporated colleges and five theological seminaries, in which about 150 young men aro in course of pre paration for the ministry. The Home and Foreign Mission of the Lutherans are yet in their infancy, but are on a firm basis.

Ccl. Robinson's prospect fur a nontina-' lion were considered fair, until the visit of Mr. Clay to this city. It is singular how a small circumstance will make or unmake a man ! We deeply sympa thise with the Colon r e - 1 on account of his political misfortunes. The Ism Charles Aveiy is spoken of as a compromise candidate for Congress, and we pra some, if he yields his consent, he will be nominated without much opposition. He is n gentleman of great personal worth; and although moderate in his political opinions, yet he would not desert his party, under any circumstances. It is generally thought however, that he has an aversion to becoming a can. didate for Congress, and would prefer the endear meets of private life, to the turmoil of the political arena. All these facts and circumstances, taken in connection with the powerful efforts of a few active individuals, have operated to give Mr. Hampton a more favorable position than most of the whim, are aware of. And moreover, the Pittshdrgh Gazette, it the oldest paper printed west of the mountains, r. with all its influence, is claimed by Miller & Co., as being favorable to Mr. Hampton's nomination. As to the truth of this, we are not prepared to express an opinion ; but we do know, that the Gazette pub lished the Rubinson township proceedings, eulogi sing Mr. Hampton to the skies, without a dissenting word being email in its broad pages!

Batavia, Stafford, Le Roy and Celedunia, and thence South through the to wns'orlforkiAvon, , Ac., gave us en opportunity Jogei!.romewha t of the prospect of•the wheat crop. It is . good for the eyes to look upon the es tended fields or wheat that are growing up for the harvest in that region. For the most part, the crop promises well. Occasionally, the eye could rest up. on a field that had suffered from the open winter, but then the farmer, arc well pleased at the general prospect of the crop.--Bento idr The disturbance on Monday evening was a kind of premonitory symptom eta system of rows that has disgraced other cities of this Union during years past. The provocation given for the "washing out" operation was not sufficient. Some white men In truded upon a party of Negroes who were dancing, and one of them was assaulted. Now thesir whites had no.buainess there; and if they were there and doing no mischief, and were really abused, they had their remedy, and should not resort to such means as rows to gratify their vengeance. It is true that the dekko house was a nuisance, the most loathsome characters assembled there nightly, and kept up the performance till a late hour—always ending in a row, and tire girls went home by them selves we presume„ - for the gents were often paraded off by the Police. But all this is no reason why the quiet of the city should be disturbed by lawlesa via knee. Engine companies were organized to arrest Gres, and sot to destroy property and excite wan to bad deeds. The 'fair of Monday evening was 'cry orderly. We never knew a spree entered into with so little confusion. The engine was playing into the win- dows of the house before the people of the neigh borhood understood what was going en. But when the Police interfered there was some noise. Though the neighbors are east that the house has been cleared out all must regret the means by which it was done. Wo think as touch blame, ■nd more, attache* to the owners or such houses, as to the degraded in mates. We do not know who owns the house refer red to, but he is guilty io,a moral point of view, and we think there should be a law to punish such offences—we mean that of leutug property to be toted as sinks of vice.
