raised against them the tomahawh of
vengeance and death. What then, it
may be asked, can the real friends ofthe
country do towards redeeming the cha

Oh the high and commanding cminence
she occupied but two short years agoi-
There is much to be done, and the peo-
pile have the power of doing it, and of do
ing it eflectually and perfectly too. Let
the great National Republican party in
this State wake up, and cast about them
selves little, until they clearly see the
consequences which will result from the
measures their adversaries are vigorous
ly pursuing, and let them adopt them
selves course of measures and carry
them into operation with spirit and de-
termination, corresponding in some de-
gree with that by which their opponents
are influenced We repeat it, that you
have the power. Who is it that contri-
butes most largely to the wealth Of the
nation? Is it the lawycr,-physician,- -
and merchant Certainly not. The far
mer, the mechanic, and the laboring man,
constitute class from which the great
wealth and power, and the means of pro-
lection Of the country are mainly to be
derived. And who entertains doubt
that in the class of citizens thus constitu-
ted is to be found a purer virtue, warm
er, and more sincere and patriotic love
of country, than ordinarily is manifested
or entertained by the residue of the COM
muuity, considerable portion Of which
consists Of political stock jobbers and Of
flee hunters? In this State, and espe-
cially in this town, the middling interest
class, which Includes in its circle the
mechanic, the farmer, the industrious
trader, the real "workng mcn' embra-
ces three fourths at least of all our free
men. See to it then, that you discharge
faithfully the important duties imposed
upon you as citizens and freemen of the
most favored and happicst country on the
face of the earth. A word to the pru-
dent, as well as to the wise, should be
sufficient.
George the liking of England,
died the Goth June and on the 28th, his
brother, the Duke of Clarence, was de-
clared King of the Realm, under the
title Of William The W. If one quarter
part of the money that was flung away
in burying George the w. and putting
the Cap, or Crown, as the thing is some
times called on the head Of William the
Nv. had been distributed in Ireland "a
mong the starving millions of that opprcs-
sed, and wretched people, it would not
only have supported them comfortably,
but furnished them with the luxuries of life
for haVa dozen gears. If such judi
cious disposition of the money had been
made, we vouch for the fact, that the
one would rest as quietly in his grave,
and the other as securely on his throne,
as they now do-But as it is with indi-
viduals, so let it be with nations-every
one to his notion.
From EURopE.- -Four days lafer.-
The packet ship De Rham, Depuystcr,
arrived at New-York on Sunday last,
from Havre, and the Ontario, Capt. Sc
ban, from London, the former briging
French papers to the 18th of July, and
the latter London papers to the 30th
of June. The accounts from the French
forces before Algicrs are to the Goth
June, up to which time, nothing decisive
had taken place. 1t appears that a
change is about to take place in the
French Ministry. The French Govern
mcnt received from Toulon telcgra-
phic dispatch of the o9th June, announc-
ing that Admiral Duperrc, and the force
under his command, had for the last two
days partial encounters with the Arabs
and the Turkish infantry, and had gained
ground. The Admiral expected to es-
tablish himself on the 26th June under
Fort Emperor.
The space occupied by the foreign
news in this days paper, has necessarily
excluded much miscellaneous matter.
