mums the air of a dictator, monimanding eon-
quests, Insisting upon submissions, and preparing
his countrymen for additional glories to be
achieved by their diplomacy or their toilitary
forces, whilst in the next he significantly
deplores the bitterness of strife, ths increasing
enmities, and the array of states against states
which must inevitably tend to the destruction of
freedom, through the ascendancy of a military
despotism, or the breaking up of the Reptoblia
into a variety of skates, that would destroy one
another. The recognition he is obliged to give
of the venality and corruption which are over-
spreading the American constitution—the source
of which he sees, with ill-disguised alarm, is
to be found in the 'itching palm" of the model
electors of this great and independent country—
is only constructive evidence of the approaching
disruption of the State, through the an-
tagonism of its many fragments, which
has been foretold by more than one
distinguished and acute political writer, if in-
deed the catastrophe do not resolve itself into
a military despotism. "In the last age," he
emphatioally says, " although our fathers wore
divided into political parties which often hail
severe conflicts with each other, yet we never
heard, until within a recent period, of any em-
ployment of money to corrupt electors. Should
this practice increase until the voters and their
representatives in the State and national Legis-
lature shall become infuoted, the fountain of
tree government will become poisoned 1111 its

the New York Tuot.s, " rise to phials of the highest
power end then fortify themselves in their seats by the

which Government was made to secure, and without
which all government is a nuisance and a sham. Thu
is not the experience of Now York alone—every great
oily in America is showing the seine result. and teaching
the same lesson. Such being the aspects of American
freedom, we can thoroughly understand the feeling with
which Mr. Buchanan has addressed that inelanoliolY
warning to his country which he has brought under
the notice of our readers. The republic is in danger
and it requires a better 'Melt and a inore self•denying

market was held on Saturday week, when the guano
tity and quality of the supply were unexoeptionalole,
and did muoh credit to the spirit and judgment of
the Dorobeater butchers, u well sa of many others
whoattend this market from the country. During the
whole of the past week the most ample provision
wee made for a oontinuuus demand. A great many
pun:theses were made on the Wednesday, whioh woe
regarded by many persons IA the most suitable day
tor dicing upon the leveral creature comforts with
which to regale their Wallies' and friends.
