MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20.

There was time when Doctor Logan
was considered one Of the brightest lumi-
naries in the dem ocratic hemisphere now
/, forsooth he is very mailman. 'Ihe Balu-
more American, one OF the under echoes
! Of the Aurora, without capacity 10 make-an
impression and without discrimination TO
know what Impressions TO receive, pro-
nounces Logan. a "polltcal nladman,' be.
cause, as the American declares, he has
given pabscEy to Lord Wel!esley's decla.
ration, that proposals had been made to the
British government to divide the United
States with France. Now the American
asserts that wellesley may have sent Burr
! 10 Paris with such a proposal. Thsre is
probability of this; and doubtless Welles-
/ lev may have sent Burr to Paris wilh'such
proposal. There is probability Of this;
and doubtless Welesley.had some great SCI
cret motive for giving Information of it, so
that our government may be prepared.
The Federal Republican has given AUS
quite satisfactory evidence that Burr, now
in Paris, is in high favor with Napoleon
and that as soon as an opportunity shAI pre-
sent itself, an attempt will be made TO strike
a Blow at New Orleans, or in the southern
states: and there appears now every reason
to believe that Burr's conspiracy was under
taken under the auspieies Of the French 60,
verpment.
A democratic paper enquiries how isys
! possible for Bonaparte to be friend to.lhe
United States, while he harbors Burr I'M
Paris. a sensible question an4I for de-
mocrat uucommonly audacous for 1t
conveys the idea of Bonaparte's possibly
being unlrieudly to us. We bave seen Sc
v2ral hints lately in several fthe democra
tic papers, that no dependence is to be
F placed in the promises of the French empe-
| ror. We are astonished at these sugges-
tons. These refractory pupils Of Duane
will soon be denounced.
We shall by no means be sur prizsd if
! Burr is yet destined to act most conspicu
Gus and terrible part on the American thea
| tire.
The electioneer;pg campaign for Charter
! Officers OF the City Of New York has com
menced In whose favor soever victory
NAV decide there Will be severe battle.
The Boston Chronicle has forged and has
unfairly made number of quotations from
different American writers to prove the
existeacc of monarchical principles in this
!. country
!" II the people have a right to self go
'vernment, may they NOT prefer King to a
! President?" And does this prove wish
! for monarchy? Is not the proposition true,
that they can have what government they
please? Would our government be less re-
publican if the President were called "a
King?
every man will presume that he is no,
bound to obey the law" certain supple.
mentary unconstitutional embargo laws
What has this proposition to dowith monar-
| civ? And it is undoubtedly true that the
people are no, bound to obey laws aagranty
! Unconstitutional. Let such be made and
] their enforcement again attempted.

The National Egis has copied a part of
the forged address of Cobbetto the people

this with as much apparent sincerity as if

In meeting or assembly of the Mayor.
aldermen and Liverymen Of the several

mon hall assembled. at the Guildhall Of
he said city, On Monday the 21st day Of May,
1910
1 Resolued, That the rejection by the.
house of Commons of our late humbI. Adj
dress. petition, and remonstrance. appears
30 us a violation Of our constitutional and
ndisputable right to State our complaints
and grievances, and 10 call for relief and re-
dress.
Resolved That such rejection is an.
additional proof Of the shamefu
of The representation OF the people in the
commons house of parliament and more.
forcibly demonstrates the necessity of a.
speedy AMI substantial reform in that honor

and pity. the adore IS of certain persons styi

statements contained in that address, imputj
ing to- the great body Of their fellow citizens,

these affXfd TO that address, appear the sig
natures IT contractors commissioners, & col-
lectors Of taxes Of placemen and placehun-
ters with long list of their agents, and
clerks of their dependents, emissaries or

S Resolved That is it undeniable that
power, influence, threats and decisions, have
been employed TO prevail upon many to CON-
cur in the said address
6. ReSOiUed That whilst we disclaim any

who by gross mi representations, by arts of

have been compelled to lend their sigIa~
lures to the said address, it is to us a source
