In almost every democratic paper
will be seen several columns filled with
clustering and threatening of war with
England but it is believed thar the
leaders OF democracy had much rather
shed ink than blood in vindicating our
rights prudence with them is the
better part Of valor. To scoId and call
hard names serves to keep up the tone
among the dupes of their party, and
make them believe, that their leaders
are very patriotic and anxious to redress
the wrongs done to our citizens.-
France plumbers our merchants, i'm
prisons our seamen, and England fire.
quently captures our vessels and i'm
prisons our citizens and what has our
slsirifed rulers done to prevent the re-
petition of these evils, or obtain salts
faction for the past ? Nothing nor
will they do any thing. They even IN
suit the feelings of every real Ameri-
Jean, in their pretended preparation for
ldefence-which consists simply in put.
ting 80 gun-6oafs in commission. Had
ever nation such energetic rulers and
such powerful protection But what
better an be expected when the rul-
ing passion of the leaders Of the pres
ent majority in the United States, is to
retain the power in their hands and
divide the revenue of the country by
way of salary and fees among them
selves and partizans. Let any rational
man for moment impariially look at
the conduct of the principal democrats
ever since they have had the controul
of the government, and he will find that
Office and salary has been their con-
slant object. Look at Massachusetts
now and during the time which de-
inocrats have held the reins of gov
ernment--not the public good has
been the enquiry, but who should have
this or that office, end the Government,
instead ofbeing employed in promoting
the great s permanent interests of the
State and Country are acting the par,
of caterers and pimps, to make Offices
and fill them mostly with grogshop
politicians, ignorant lawyers, bankrupts
in reputation, political appostates, and
turncoats. Such are the characters
distined to set in high places and bear
rule in the land under the new order
OF things. Glorious times coming, and
"never more prosperous"

Nh. SHIRLEY,
! If you think the following will con-
tribute one mite TO the advancement of
nsefut kno1vledSe, would thank you to
give II a place in your paper, and il
jour :" Brehren Of me Tyre" will do
the same, the subject, perhaps, will be
more generally attended 10.
Among the most conspicuous actors
on the great stage ofnature, none more
excite cur curic ,ity and attention than
the Comets Earthquakes and subter-
raneous and submarine explosions,
though the effects of the most sublime
causes and powerful agents of nature,
we cannot contemplate without emo
tons OF horror, when we coDsider the
catastrophe OF "Korah, Dalhan and
/! Abiram," and the unlilnely fate Of the
immortal Pliny. The corruscaIions of
the aurora borealis, flashing in diver
gent rays from the electrified atmos-
phere OF the frozen regions oi the north,
evince the sublirnity Of NATURES soorks.
The attraction of the magnetic needle
affords ample scope for philosophic In
vestigation. Total * annuIar eclipses
of the sun, interestingly arrest our at
tention, and inspire ideas of curious
construction in the fabrication Of the
universe But the Comets, from their
irregular motions, rema, kable appear
ances, and the superstiiious notion OF
their portending future caIamllies,
seem to claim the particular attention
of observers especially as they visit
US so seldom.
There are at least twenty-om comets
belonging to our system; of these the peri
obs 81 three only are known. The .frst APP
pcared ia 1851. i6J7, 1852, and may be
c expected in l75s, 4nd every 75dl year af-
lerward. The second appeared in 1862,
1861, and may be expected to appear again
in 1879, and every 10Th year aftcrward.
The third appeared last in 1850, and its pc
Rod Is SD years. This comet 1t its great
est distance from the sun, is about 100000
OU0 miles. lts nearest distance $4,000 mites,

ANNAPOLIS, Dec. S.
GExrLEALs-The house of delegates have
this moment unanimously adopted the enclos-
ed bill, inlroducedby Mr.. Dorsey, from Charles.
Let it be published that our veterans may
learn, at last, this house has appropriated a
portion of its immense revenue, to soften their
Affections and to reward their exertions.
Every member was anxious to participate
in the honor resulting from the adoption of
the bill, and that his name should appear in
support oft. With that view, the yeas and
nays were called, when the whole of the MEM
bers present, amounting to II, answered in
the affirmative; and the rule of the house
prohibiting the speaker to vote, was suspend
ed in order that his name might appear in the
affirmative.-We confidently believe that the
senate will adopt the BILL
The bill giving equity jurisdiction to the
county courts, passed here by very large
majority-but 10 in the minority.
IN act making an uniform provision for the

was citizen Of Maryland, and who did7not
belong to the quota furnished by any other
state, and who did not desert the said service,
and who served as aforesaid, shall be entitled
to receive the following pensions: and in or

tee no possible distinction Of injury between
urging the Indians to make war upon our
frontiers, and impressing our citizens on the
high seas. The only apparent difference was'
that We had got familiarized to the latter. He
said he had no doubt whatever that the late
hostility of the Indians was the effect OF Bril-
fish influence.--The pacific policy OF the A
merican people formed an honorable trait in
their character; they knew the horrors OF war;
but they knew also that war was not the
greatest of evils In case of such an event,
Mr.. w. declared that the Federalists, in his
opinion, would be found among the foremost
IN the ranks. After the affair of the Chesa-
peake, he had witnessed, while governor of
Maryland, Federalists and Republicans con-
tending who should come forward first. He
repelled the epithet of mcrcenaries, as appli-
ed to any army that might be raised. He
likewise made some remarks in reply to the
charge of an "acquitted felsn' brought by
Mr.. Randolph against Gen. Wilkinson. He
said that the general had entered into the re-
evolutionary army at an early period, and had
been honored by Congress at that time with
the breyet commission OF brigadier general,
while yet youth, which commission he had
afterwards resigned because it had produced
some dissatisfaction in the army He believ-
ed that when all the circumstances relating TO
the charges against Gen. w. should be fair
ly brought to light, he would be found to be
as honorable a man as any in the nation. He
hoped we should not refuse to go to war be-
cause we had not Washington to lead US:
or because Gen. Wilkinson happened not to
be agreeable to the gentleman from Virginia
(Mr. Randolph.)
A motion was made to adjourn, and lost,
