artificial stream, and between his lumber

impropriety of admitting Deteret into the

He 'was followed by Judge Porter in a kat effort
in opposition to the resolution. ,He reviewed the I,
grounds formerly taken by him, 'and concluded
by an enthusiastic appeal to the Democracy of
the House to defeat the measure, predicting
that if they voted in its favor, they would re

of Montgomery. The Yeas were 87, and ten

favorably upon the measure. The only objection
which appears to be insiraed upon against it is,
that should the , hill plea, persons imployed upon

more objectionable manner than they now do.—
But this by no means relieved uur legislators from
the re.ponsibility of depriving them of the pricil

iGod is ill Aistark." is one of We greatest
livinxiiistorlitue r a4 . the truth'ictj the wpm* will
be obvious to every reflecting mind. Be writes
or reads historpto little purpose who does noises
in it the ter-reaching and overruling agency eta
Divine hand.
When we compare our former with our present
situation" we canamaahat the most Insane scep
ticism, forbeietthe aciamellebiii/koid what God
herth wrought r From a aim of witakma and
colonial subjection to the British Grown, with
.
notidespof tree liberty bdt the nem% we him be
come an independent and powerful nation. When
our fathers •deetered their dam end purpose to
be free, and preferred death to injustice and op.
prelusion, eivrything was against them but God
and justice. We were weak in numbers. in re
sources, and esperiam in the art of war. Our
adversary was the mod powerful nation on earth ;
abundant in resources,. and her, legions of tried
valor.'. Indeed, when we look at the resource*
and achievements of our illustrious projenitort•
we are amazed at both their temerity and ar
eal.
Let one or two !incidents illustrate our paint—
..ln the enclosure at the top of the Bunker Hill
monument, are, two small cannon, the 'Hancock'
and the 'Adana' each about six-potindims, one of
which contains the following inscription: &cam,
TO LI ts Mid offossr carmen which ton
stilts ted the who/s train of Field alrtillery possessed
by the British Colonies of N. America, et the tom
' menorment of the war Gayle lath of Jeri!, 1775.
This cannon and its fallow be/ringing to a number
of the citizens of Boston, stare need in snooty engage
ments during ate war. The other Otto, the property
of the government of Mosearkwrette, were token by
th e enemy." Ault think of it Four cannon of
this calibre "constituting of the whole train of Field
Artillery" at the commencement of that fearful
struggle, in the infancy ef our being, with the most
power ful nation on the globe! Who can doubt
that the God of nations gave our feeble army the
victory I Who can doubt .that great and glorious !
purposes were to be accomplished by our becom•
leg a froe and independent people? Whet a con
trast is found in our present artillery force, and whet
a pledge has it recently afforded of its terrible effi
ciency. Each gun of Bragg.' Battery, at Buena
Vista, was Discharged upwards of two hundred and
fifty times, during a battle of • few hour, cutting
down whole ranks of the enemy as with the sword
of an archangel !
Says .Garden, in his revolutionary memoirs,
, •When the American army entered Philadelphia
in June t 778, after the evacuation by the British
troops, we were hard pressed for ammunition.—
W e caused the whole city to be ransacked in search
or esrtridge.,paper. Among' vast collection found
in on upper room, once occupied by Dr. Franklin
when a printer, was a mass ef sermons an defen
sive war, preached by Rev. Gilbert Tennant, du
ring the old ,British and French war, to reuse the
colonies to indispensable exertion. These were
instantly employed si cases for musket cartridges,
rapidly sent to the army, and used at the Battle
of Monmouth against our nailing foe." These
incidents, which might 'be multiplied, show the
meagerness of our own resources, and our inabil
ity, humanely speaking, to cope with so formidable
an enemy. Our army, it is well known, were of•
ten without sufficient food and clothing—were ex
posed to privations and trials of which we can
form no adequate conception, and which we are
apt to forget. And nothing but the wisdom and
energy, the watchful assiduity and unbounded in
fluence of its brave commander, prevented a mu
tiny or desertion which would have perilled, if
not utterly prostrated the -hopes of our cause.
This disquietude was but momentary. The
virtue and the valor of the soldiers made them
equal to the emergency. They struggled for their
liberties, their honor and their fire aides, and twee
guided by the prudent counsel and animated by
the lofty example of the greet and winnows Wash.
ton : and, above all, were led and succored by the
"Just God," as the immortal Henry said, "who pre
! sides peer the destinies of nations." Triumph
cron ned their labors—and liberty and peace suc
ceeded to tyranny and trouble.
More than fifty years have elapsed, and we have
been brought, by a benignant Providence, through
other wars, to the possession of an honorable place
among the nations of the Earth. tllaty years
ago, there was here a population of three millions
now there are nearly twenty millions. Then
thirteen feeble colonies looking to England for
protection and laws, now an independent nation of
thirty great States, rapidly extending in territory
and population, and enterpenterpr ise; able and ready to
every defend ourselves in just and necessary con
troversy, whether of the intellect or of the sword ;
respected by all the world, and shaking, by the e
lectric energy of true freedom exemplified, the
thrones .1 Europe, and giving to the benighted I
and downarodden among the nations, a pure
Christianity and liberal institutions. In industry
and agriculture, ha manufacture and commerce,
in theartgot sciences, in general education and
intelligence, in philanthropy and useful enterprise,
and in enlarged schemes of high and true reierne
—in all that is desirable and honorable, and hap
py in our social, political and religions relations
and character, we have attained a surprising and
gratifying distinction. In looking at the peat in
our country, have we not much ground fer thank
ful recollections and mutual congratulations.—
The above is a mere outline or memento. In
my next, I shall invite your yeaders to look'with
me at the perils and prospects of oar country.—
Though we haee meson to filar, we have, I think,
greater reason to hope. D. N.ll
