BEAUTIES OF REPUBLICANISM.

(Prorri the Aforztredt tbfraht. 4th Septentl,ei, )
Our 14tevt Arnerican papers are almost barren Of "excite=
meat t" but they contain a few editorial suggestions of a sedi-
tious Outracter.

A Virginian editor had published the following amiable sug-
gestion : _ .

- The wail to do it.—lnstead of setting about to dissolve the
union, let the executive of any of the stave-holding states offer
a reward of twenty thousand dollars for the apprehension and
delivery of Mr. Arthur Tappan at any place south of the Poto-
mac—to be.clealt with according to his merits. It is the purse of
this insti that keeps the abolitionists and their pres 4 in motion
—he is the mime mover in the business of stirring up the
blacks to rapine and murder, while he sits in security, and ease
in kudson-square. There is a way of reaching hint, and We
have pointed it nut..
A New York editor takes his Virginian brother severely to
task, as follows :
Thus says a Virginian paper. But we can assure them that
this is not the way to do it. Arthur Tappan, and Lewis Tap-
pan; and their associates, haVe their rights as American citi-
zens, and those rights must be protected. Much as we lament
the unhappy course which, in their blind zeal, they have taken,
even we ourselves would turn out to defend and protect them
from illegal violence. This is a country of LAWS, and the
LAWS must be sustained.

This would be very laudable, were not the paragraph closed
with the subjoined approval of the Virginian gentleman's mur-
derous intentions:—

As for Thompson, the south may have bins as soon as they
please.
"The laws must be sustained," sayi the'New Yorker, "un-
less in Mr. Thompson's case."
The following remark of the Nem York Journal of CoMMerce
considers the great republic as "this land of good laws."
Yet these horrible proceedings are openly invoked by no in-
considerable-portions of people in this land of good laws, and
by a considerable number of papers at the south and west.
We cordially admit that some of the laws are "good." The
following, for instance, is a very "good" law, as we find it
stated in the. same number of the Journal of Commerce :
The constitution of the United States guarantees to every
citizen, "freedom of speech and of the press."
The misfortune, however, is, that this "gnarl" law, like
almost ever other "good" law of a public kind, is a dead letter.
The very same number of the Journal of Commerce proves that
there is nut "freedom of speech and of the press." Our con 7
temporary having dune us the honour of quoting one of our
mildest articles on the displays of "judgment and will," muti-
lates the cloning sentence as being by no means adapted to the
tastes of Andrew. Jackson's sovereign people. The mutilation
is the more worth{ of notice, as the paragraph, as a whole, met
our contemporarf's " cordial concurrence:" The mutilated
sentence appeared in the Herald thus
If such a system is adopted in England, where the laws and
the government combine to prevent.and ..suppress piesular,via.-
lence, how much more•requi4ite is it in America, where the
laws directly recognise the sovereignty of the people, and where
the head of the executive proclaims the entire devotion to the
"judgment and will" of his own faction.
The Journal (~/. Commerce spoils the paralleli6aa of our sen-
tence, and gives a slight indication either of fear or dishonesty,
by striking out all that follows " people."
, -The Western Hemisphere, said to be Van Bruen's organ in
Ohin, mournfully asks—
"How long will it he before Clay and Poindextei will be
STRUNG UP BY THE NECK, IN THE PUBLIC HIGHWAY,
as gamblers and blacklegs, in the Vicksburg fashion?"
We were too hasty in saying that we could not give our
readers a dish of excitements. _

1. The kings of Michigan and the emperors of Ohio are still
determined to get up a display on a very grand scale.
A speck of war.—A postscript in the Dayton Journal of the
11th inst., states that "orders have been isst:ed by Governor
Lucas to the generals of militia throughout the state, to report.
to him immediately what number of mounted riflemen and
cavalry can be furnished front their respective divisions at a
moment's warning ! It is supposed that this force is intended
for the disputed territory, to prevent or repel the aggressions
of Michigan, or perhaps to invade the territory! Further we
learn, that these orders were confidential, and will not appear
in the papers until the governor removes the injunction of
secrecy. The correctness of this intelligence may he depended
on. A gentleman who saw a copy of the orders communicated
the contents to us.".
2. "The village of Newhope was quite in a ferment," be-
cause a black man and a white woman were about to carry
into effect " paramount amalgamation." 'clad not the parties
cleared out "double quick," they would have expetienced the
tender mercies of Judge Lynch.
Why is not every yellow gentleman or every yellow lady
hanged on the spot, as being a living proof of the horrid crime
of "paramount amalgamatio'n ?"
3. On the authority of a- private letter, we learn that the
sovereigns of Maine, who are terribly spirited fellows, finding
the best of all possible republics too small a 'theatre for their
display of "judgment and will," have made an incursion into
the British territory of Madawaska, and expelled the British
inhabitants by force. If such a thing has' happened, we cal-
culate that somebody must make apologies, or give us and
every other Briton the right of attacking him. with - something
more deadly than a pen.
4. -Even the pretty little town of Burlington begins to do
something in the sovereign line.
A Tumult at Bullington.—We learn from a gentleman who
reached the city last evening, from Burlington, that the good
people of that place are in a state of considerable excitement.
It appears that a coloured man, who is known as a porter, in
attendance upon the steam-boats, had rendered himself so ob-
noxious to a portion of the inhabitants of that place, that they
determined to expel him from the city. In pursuance of this
intention, a collection of persons assembled before the house of
a coloured man, supposing it to be that in which the porter
above mentioned resided. They proceeoed to throw stones at
the windows, and to manifest other feelings of hostility, when
the occupant of the house seized a musket, and tired upon the
assailants. One Men received several buckshot is his shoulder,
and two others were slightly injured.

This race concluded the sports of The _meeting, which have
been of a first-rate character, and have proved a source of high
gratification to the race going people of this and the neighbour-
ing towns. The usual contingencies of pilling, upsetting gigs
and coaches, and breaking of shaft's, occurred in the bustle oc-
casioned by the attempts to get out of the park; but we have
