vernMents ar, well at 'tuitions. h lia3ls.l"st to the one the'extent of their dutiee, and the -ele meats of. Which their power is composed. It has Liught tle 'people, by means of an experience of ages traced in characters of, blood, in the short space of 25 years of disasters, what arc the um usovable limits beyond Which they would vainly teek glory and happiness. Such being the-moral situation in which the States are placed, and upon which their new po- Utical relati6o are grounded, how can it be sup posed that they can have the *ill or, even the poWer to overturn them, with a view to!establisb others ) to become conquerors, to disturb the order . of thittgs which they have laboured to create and to consolidate ? barriers equally insurmountable oppose all ambition directed to this object. The first is that of honour attached to the faith of treaties. The second is that resulting trout the united strength of all the States which 4hocild hot have 'concurred iu the senseless plans of the aggressing Government. Perhaps it might be disposed to doubt the union of their force. The identity of 'uterust would render it inevitable. And this . interest is, the preservation of the peace to ne , cessary for Government to assure their rights, and remedy the exhaustion of their resources—for na tions to give stability to their institotions, and to efface the deep traces of their calamities. According to this faithful sketch of the state of • things, there is no reason to doubt that the sacred imss of treaties, bonnet., and the very certainty of , speedy and siguol success, would produce, 111 case of any iofraction of. the established order, that simultaneous ninon of force, the mere sight of which would be sufficient to. paralyze all the pia . jeets hostile to peace. In this display of the protectinr, strength 'of peace cousists the general alliance of the States of If',urope. It is consecrated by existing Treaties, by the moral situation of the contracting patties, by tile very n a ture. of their legitimate ieterests, bound to one another by means of their fusion into, one single, positive, and universal code of late. On the contrary, Amy alliance springing front fear or ambitious views is not even practicable. It would be, in coetradietion with the spirit of the age, with the faith of treaties, end as invalid in its essence as it, its effects. To resider this truth more palpable, let us not hesitate to examine that hypothetical 'inhume in every point of view that it can present to the ob server. Considered as a defensive medium, it can never be so efficacious kt s it general alliance, which has , helm formed spontaneously, as it were, among all States. It it be viewed, as an offensive medium, it is clear that tt cannot produce a condeinatinn of . strength capable of sustaining a struggle with, end of conquering the States that would enter the lists with it, accomphied with the good wishes of all nations and the bleesings of Heaven. The one would fight for the purpose of retitle. ing the not Id again wider the yoke of the stronger, tinder the influence of his bad faith and immorality, The other to maintain the sacred inviolability of Ab u most 110411111 engagements. • To the triumph at the hitter alliance then wouto he attached the independeuce of States and the .prosperity of Nations. The experience of the past , fur the one, the.instinct of well-being for the other, would strengthen in every case a cause so sacred to such a degree as to make it invincible. • After having given to these observations the character of evidence, it is of consequence not to . omit here one of the' essential advantages of the ay6lVlll of coheskon of interests, and, reciprocity of duties, which now prevails in Etirope, and tebiels is not the work of the will of man, but,. , on the other hand, the effect of events !nought about by. Divine Providence. It is this :---the great Powers: exercise s it is true, a 'certain pre ponderance over the States of the second and third order c but this preponderance is salutary, It 'is not exercised otherwise then collectively, agreeably to deliberative. forms and considerations : fomuled, on the tenour of treaties. ,Jt is not of nature to augment the power of the strong, and to diminish the independence of the weAk nei ther can it become so, because this kind of asccu dancy ismever,‘Litiloat a moderator. The dignity of tto State is threatened, because nothing au • tholizes on appeal to the right of the stronger: . Very di&rent would it be with .a system owing its existence to the exclusive politics of this or the . other Cabinet. Its first effect would be to enslave tint small States. to the great, to aBBoCiitte them by compulsion in their destinies. '!'glen should we witness the. repetition of the catastrophes, fl thou sand times reiterated, which art: recorded .upon every p•tee.,of, history, • • The disasters of the. great States would involve rite smaller in their fall. Their success, not less hatiefel . the latter, would but aggravate the • buiMen of their servitude. GERMAN PA PERS . [IIIMEIVIiI3 TIM 14011.N1NG.3 STerrnAllbt, APRIL 2.--. The Russian Legation a t this Court has signified to the Minister of Fo reign Affairs, that it is not authorised this year to deliver or countersign* passports fur persons who design to enti s grate to Russia, and has requested that this declaration may be made know to all the Bailiffs, that they may without delay inform the.inhabitants of Wurtemberg, that the Russian Legation will refuse them the necessary permis sion to emigrate to Russia, in order that they may tint aceordin . gly, and not inconsiderately sell their estates or furniture without being certain that they shall get permission to go to Russia.

MEM QVIS DICERS CALSUJI AUDEAT I, ND ON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 16, 1817. ;- We understand that the litiuse of Lords will follow the example of the Commons, and adjourn again till to-morrow week, New York Papers to the 20th March, and Boston to the lOth, arri val this tutirning. One of the latter contains cue or to.: sident on taking the oaths and entering upon his office, which ceremony took place on the 4th ult. at Washington, in the presence of the Judges, Senators, &c. and five or six thousand of the People. For this long inaugural speech we, have not room to-day, and content ourselves with se lecting its most prominent paragraphs. After an exordium of a personal nature, the President says, " Prom the commencement of 'our Revolution to the present clay, almost forty years , have elapsed, and from the establishment Of this Constitution, twenty-eight. Through this whole term the Go vernment has been, what may emphatically be called, self-government ; and what bas been the effect ? T. whatever object we twit our atten tion, whether it relates to our foreign or domes. • tic concerns, we find abundant Cause to felicitate ourselves in the excellence of ou r institutions.--- During a period fraught .with difficulties, and tnatked by very extraordinary events, the United state s have flourished beyind example. Their citizens, individually, have been happy, and the Nation lwospe Eons Under this Constitution,.bur commerce has been wisely regulated with foreign nations, and between the States ; new States have been ad mitted into our Union ; our territory has been en. larged by fair and honourable Treaty, and with great; advantage to the original States ; the States, respectively, protected by a national Government, tinder a mild parental system,' against foreign dangers, and enjoying within their separate spheres, by n wise partition of power,,,a just pro portion of the'Sovereignty, have improved th e i r Police, extended their settlements, and attained a strength and maturity, which are the best . pro c i i of wholesome laws, well administered." The Speaker then takes an equally flattering view of America with regard to external re lations : • " Such, then, is the happy Government limier which we live ; a Government adequate to every purpose for which the social compact is formed ; a Government tlective in all its branches; under which every citizen may, by his merit, obtain the highest trust recognised by the Constitution ; which Contains within it no cause of discord ; none to put at variance one portion of the com munity with another ; a Government which pro. tees every citizim in the full enjoyment of his .._ .~;: ' l g f /tS) dild / 6 liae t.CI prlneCt thition tigaivat iiiinstice from Ftireigit Powers. - • " Other - considerations of the highest iniport mice admonish us to cherish our union, anti to cling to the Government which supports it. ror- Innate aS*We are, in our political institutions, we have not been less so in other circumstances, on which our prosperity and happiness essentially depend. Situated within the temperate zone, and extending through many degrees of latitude along the Atlantic, the United States enjoy all the va rieties of climate,, and every production incident to that portion of the globe. Penetrating, in ternally, to the great lakes, and beyond the sources of the great rivers which communicate through otir whole interfor, no country teas ever happier with respect to its domain. Blessed too with a fertile soil, our produce has 'always been very abundant, leaving, even in years the least fa vourable, a surplus for the wants of our fellow men, in other countries. Such is our peculiar felicity, that there is not a part of our union that is not particularly interested in preserving The great 'agricultural interest of the nation pros pers under its protection. Local interests are not less fostered by it. :Our fellow. citizens of the North, engaged in.navigation, find great encou ragethent in being made the favoured carriers of the vast productions of the other portions of the United States, while the inhabitants p of. these are. amply recompens e d ; i n th e i r turn, by the nursery for seamen and , naval force, thus formed and reared up for the support of our common rights, Our mantlfactnres find a genermis encouragement by, the policy which patronizes domestic industry and the surplus of our produce, a steady and pro- . fitable market by loCal . wants, in less favoured parts, at home." The President recommends steady attachment to the Government : " It is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt; when they degenerate into a pope. lace, that they are incapable of exercising the sovereignty. Usurpation is then an easy attain ment, and an usurper . soon found. The people themselVes become the willing instruments of their own abasement and ruin. Let us then look to the great cause and endeavour to preserve it in full force. Let us, by all wise and constitutional measures, promote intelligence among the people, as the best means of preserving our liberties." Again, adverting to Foreign relations, he says, should any differences arise, '' we must support our rights or lose our character, and with it per haps our liberties. A people who fail to do it, 4446 111.1.4 i 461, tr. o•emla Lv L.. 14 p ; pendent nations. National honour •is national property of the highest value. The sentiment in the mind of every citizen, is national strength. It ought therefore to be cherished. " To secure us against these dangers, our coast and inland frontiers should be fortified ; our Army and Navy, regulated upon just principles as to the force of each, be kept in perfect order, and our Militia be placed on the' best practicable footing. To put our extensive coast in such a state of de fence, as to secure our cities,and interior from in• vasion, will be attended with expence, but the work when finished will be permanent, and it is fair topre slime that a single campaign of invasion by a naval force superior to our own, aided by a few thousand land troops, 'would expose us to greaterexpence, without taking into the estimate the loss of pro perty, and distress of our, citizens, than would be sufficient for this great work. Our land and naval forces should be moderate, but adequate to the necessary purposes. The former.to garrison and preserve our fortifications, and to , meet the first invasions of a foreign foe ; and while con stituting the elements of ,a greater foree, to pre serve the science, as %yell as all the necessary im plements of %var, in a state to be brought into activity in the event of war. The latter re tained within the limits proper in a state 'of pe-see, might aid in - Maintaining the neutrality of the United States with dignity in the wars of other. Powers, and in saving the property of their citizens from spoliation. In time of war, with the enlargement of which the great naval re sources of the country render it seisceptible, and which should be duly' fostered in time of peace, it would contribute essentially both as' an auxiliary of defence, and as a powerful engine of annoy ance, to diminish the calamities of war, and to bring the war to a speedy and honourable termi nation; But it ought always .to be held promi nently in. view, that the safety of , these States, and of every thing dear to a free people, must depend in an eminent degree on the.Millitia." hie enlarges on the advantages of this species of force, and recommends making roads and ca nals for facilitating interior communications. On the subject of Manufactures, the oration is more interesting ;. it goes ," Our mitnttfaettirest will liked•#se require t h e systetuatic Hui fostering care of the Goveriithehl. the,hand whith wat lamed by p aralitki tarOkc the 14th January.
