Gentlemen Of The Senate, and
Gentlemen Of the House Of Representatives,
The general prosperity of the United
States, as represented in official communications
to Congress during their present session, is a
source Of great felicitation and more especially
SO, as we have risen from state of great depres-
sion, without the aid Of adventurous circumstances,
but from causes essentially inherent in the country
and the government. In all events which have &C.
cured as well during the emergencies of war as
in the calmer times of peace, the constitution has
been found adequate for every exigency. 1t has
proved eminently calculated to answer all its OBJ
ects and to the blessings OF freedom and of
happiness to- all who live beneath its influence.
And yet there seems to be such passion for novel
ty, such rage for amendment $50 mlscalled) that
session after session, propositions are made in Con-
gress for altering some of its most substantial fea
lures. 1t is misfortune that we are not permit
ted to form attachments to our institutions that
they are not allowed to grow venerable in our
sight, nor to acquire our esteem from time and use.
Perpetual alterations tend strongly to lessen the
regard Of the people for the constitution, and have
an untavorable elect even upon the principles oil
repubicanism itself. The necessity for any of the
amendments now proposed to the constitution of
the United States is not apparent. You, gentle
men, will not agree to any alterations in our fun
damental Institutions, unless the necessity for
them should appear to you most evident and pal
pable.

JOAN OF ARC,
JOhN VI hhS,
Commonly called the Maid of Orleans

Commonly called the Maid Of Orleans.
This damsel dealt in divnation, in the
reign of Charles VII. Of France, du-
ring the seige of Orleans by Henry vi.
of England. Success certainly had atten-
ded the arms of several successive mon
archs of Albion for long series Of years.
As certain it is, that affairs took quite a
different turn on the appearance Of this
maiden, who being introduced to Charles,
declared that she had been favoured with
supernatural revelation in a vision, of
his restoration by her means. 81 am
the virgin" said Joan, " decreed by heav-
ell to replace the crown upon thy head,
after relieving Orleans"
Although the king paid but little re-
gard to tale ofthis sort, by the persua-
sion of the person who introduced her,
he gave her troop Of an hundred men;
on which the heroine, in the habiliments
of The other sex, valantly marched to
the relief ofthe city, supplied the beseiged
with food, inspired them with spirit of
courage unknown before to Frenchmen.
AT the same time, spirit of detection
prevailedamidstthe English, who imbibed
notion that the maid was actually sent
to war against them by the Almighty.
She second time relieved the place
with plenty of provisions, and the enemy
beheld her at the head Of one thousand
five hundred men eager for victory.
The virgin in person entered the stron-
gest forts, fighting miraculously, and en-
couraging the men to follow her exam
pie. In three days the English lost
eight hundred men, whilst the French
lost only one hundred These victories
were crowned with desired success. The
English were so dispirited on supposit-
ion Of an agency above nature, being em-
ployed against them, that they abandon
ed the siege of Orleans, and Charles was
crowned at Rheims, and all the country
yielded to him.
This young woman afterwards was
burnt on charge of witchcraft.
