Declaration of Independent°.
(In his autobiographv,John Adams gives
the following account of the circumstances
which led to the s6ltellon of Jefferson to
draw the- Declaration of. Independence,) _
The Committee of. Independence were .
Thos.' Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin
I. 4 rankfin, - Roger Sherman, and Robert R.
Liiiingston.--Wr. Jefferson had been now
&int(' a year a member of Congress, bu t
hrid attended to his duty in the House a very
gmall part of the time, and when there had
never spoken in public. -During the whole
time I sat with him in Congress I never
heard him utter three sentences together.
It will naturally be inquired how it hap
pened that he was appointed.on a committee
of such importance. There were more rea-
Son than one. Mr. Jeffiwon laid the repu
tation of a masterly pent he had beep chosen
a delegate in Virginia, in consequence of a
ery - handstime - public - paper - which-he—had
ivritten for the House of Burgesses, which
had given hire the character of a fine wri
ter. Another reason was that Mr. Rich
fird Henry Lee itras not beloved by the most
a his Colleagues from Virginia, and Mr.
Jefreson was set up to rival and supplant
him. This could be done only by the pen.
for Mr Jefferson : could stand 'no competi
tion with him, or any one else in elocution
and public debate.
Here I will interrupt the narration for a
moment, to observe, that, from ail I have
read of the history of Greec.! and Rome.
England and France, and all I have observ
ed at home anti abroad, elt,quence in pub
lic assemblies is not the surest road to pre
ferment. at least, unless it he used with cau
tion, very rarely and with great reserve.
The examples of Washington, Franklin,
and Jefferson, are enough to show that si
lence and reserve in public. are more effi
cacious than argumentation or oratory. A
inibliCsqieaker who exerts himself el. is urg
ed by others, into the conduct of of by
daily exertions to jul-tify his measure, anti
answer the objt , ctions of opponents makes
.himself too familiar with the public, and
unavoidably-makes hi.nsellenemies.
Few persons can bear to be outdone in
reasoning, or declamat ion. or wit or sarcasm
or repartee, or satire, and all these things
are very apt to grow out of public debate.
In this way, in a coo rle of years n nation
becomes full of a mans enemies, or at least
of such as have been galled in some contro
versy, and take a secret pleasure in assis
ting to humble and. mortify him ; So much
fi,r this digression. We will now return to
our memoirs.
The committee lind several meetings, in
which were proposed the articles of which
the declaration was to consist, and minutes
made of them. The committee then appoin
ted :%Ir..Tefferson and myself to draw them
up in form, and clothe them in n proper
dress. :The sub-committee met, and con•
sidered the minute's, makit4Y, such observa
tions on them as then occurred, when Mr.
Jefferson desired me to take them to my
lodging, (and make the draft. This I de
clined and gave several reasons for decli
ning. .
I. That he was a Virginian, and I a
Nlassachusettsian. 2. That he was a south
ern man and I a northern one. :3. That I
had been so obnoxious fur my early and
constant zeal in promoting the measure, that
every draft of mine would undergo a inure
severe scrutiny rind criticism 'in Congress,
than one of his composition. 4. And lastly
and that would be reason enough, if there
were no other, I had a great opinion of the
elegance of his pen, and none at all of my
own. I therefore insisted that no hesitation
should be made on his part. Ile accord
ingly took the minutes, and in a yor two
produced to me his draft. Wh ter I made
or suggested any correction *I remember
not. The report was made to the commit
tee of five, by them examined, but whether
:altered or corrected in any tidier*, I cannot
,recollect. But, in substance, at least, it was
'reported to, Congress, where, after a severe
criticism, and striking out several of the
most oratorical paragraphs, it was adopted
on the 4th of July, 1776, and published to
.the world.
French Revolutions.
' The first great revolution in France,
with the succeeding wars, seems to have in
a great measure extinguished the race of the
saints, and the pigmies are now scrambfiniy,
for ascendency, by writi, g books and mak
ing speeches. Their peJents are all states
men, and their statesmen, all pedants.
Monsieur Guizot would
.make a capital
schoolmaster, and. Monsieur Thiors a first
rate professor of rhetoric. One may trace
the progress of society in the past, but will
never give it a direction in the future; the
otherorty write, but will scarcely become
a'subject for history. Neither of them will
probably set the world on fire, or extinguish
the flames afterwards.
It seems to me that iii the apprehension
df a repetition of the excesses of the first
French revolution, the leaders of the second
and third inclined too much to the opposite
extreme, and .perpetuated almost everything
that, made a revolution necessary . With
the exception of universal suffrage, which
id in a process of rapid curtailment, arid the
exchanen of a King for. a President I, don't
see thot the people of France have gained
anything: The press is more fetttered than
ever; the laws more severe against all ex
pression of public opinion, except in behalf
of the existing government ; the public ex
penditures are increasing, rather than
diminishiagl the public prosperity is in a
directly opposite progress ; and en enor-
Mous standing army is quartered on tm im
poverished people, not so much to defend
them against foreign enemies, ns to protect
their rulers firm the discontents of what is
affirmed to be n small minority of the na
tion. At moment, the government is

..lifithitr' there, Wits no occa
sion for a revolution, oethe lark will only bl 3
-the forerunner of another, which will change
71rinvi as well as iiiinicAt. It is certain the
people of France have not -got what they
expected. Perhaps they did not exactly
know what they Wanted, and nothing is more
dangerous than revolutions having no dill-
nite object. Without something liken com
mon sentiment and purpose, the people run
into the wildest excentricities, and pull the
halter different ways till they strangle each
other instead of the serpent. The only cer
tain conclusion to be drawn from the pre
sent state of France is, that it cannOt last
long, for it has none of the characteristics
of permanency, nor does it (Ford any solid
grounds of conjecture as to the future. It
appears there are, at least, four parties in
direct hostility to each other, which never
unite on en}' occasion. except ffom exactly
opposin..motives. One is pulling backwards
with all its might ; another forward's with
equal fury ; while the two others are tog
ging manfully, one right, the other left, to
get the broken vehicle in the old track again.

The Chinese.
Chit are the most singular peo
ple in the world. They were acquainted
with the cmpass,. the use of gunpowder,
the art of printing and other things, to
which the Europeans value themselves as
the inventors, and what proves they did
not borrow, is that they do every thing
different from all others. Their system of
religion is also unique, and so far as it can
be understood, consists in a great measure
of moral precepts of Confucius, Mencius,
and Chet) Ili. The emperor has his own
exclusive deity, and any others who attempt
to divide his patronage with his maj.ysty,
are either banished or strangled ; it twin!!
persu tied that die cdre of one King is
enough for one God. In almost, if not all
other countries, it is considered the first of
all duties to take care of the helpless child
ren ; jbut in Chnia that of maintaining the
parent in old age is considered much more
sacred. They destroy ninny of their child
yen, but cherish their parents, and pay a
sort of worship to their memory at little al
tars erected in their {mimes. The trade
carried on between the Chinese and Rus
sians at the homier town of Kiaklita, pres
ents a singular spectacle. The only circula
ting medium, or standard of value, is
•hrick ten.' as it is called, which is made
up in the form of bricks, the value of which
is always settled before the trade reintnen

The Lehigh Region
The Pottsville Mining Register gives the
following brief summary of the .progress of
improvement in the Lehigh Region :
As early as the year 1771, the Legisla
ture of Pennsylvania were aware of the
importance of the navigation of the Lehigh,
and passed an act for its improvement.-
1.7 nd r the several acts passed front that date
to IS Ili, a company associated. and after ex
pending more than $lO.OOO in clearing out
channels, relinquished their design of per
fecting the navigation of the river. In Jan
uary, Ittl6. Messrs. White, Hazard, and
lia t no, jointly, obtained the control of the
lands-of the Lehighsoal company. In the
succeeding March, the Legislature granted
to these gentl6men ample power for improv
ing the navigation of the river Lehigh. In
PS:2O, coal was sent to Philadelphia. by an
artificial navigation, and sold at $ 50 per
ton, delivered at the door of the purchaser;
rather a 'contrast with the present selling
rates of Lehigh and Schuylkill coal !
an act of Assembly, passed 1:Ith February,
18'22, the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Cent
patty was incorporated, and the property of
the prior associations and the privileges crea
ted by the act of ISIS were invested in them.
Their capital stock was limited to $1,000.-
000, divided into shares of S5O each ; and
of this capitaLtheir former property formed
part. This company like that of the
Schuylkill, have beeti compiled to incur
heavy expenditures in consequence of datn
ages by freshets.
