Irresolute honesty new vigor. They think
MN boy when he begins to speak, and q
sage when he has finished. He IS as well
htted for the deAiberative body as for the
camp; and for the forum as for the; hall of
justice. Wherever he goes, there will be.
stream Of light wherever he rests, a nil
lar Of FIRE. He seems unconscious Of his
superiority, and yet is unawed by the most
gifted minds.
If his equals are no where to be found,
tthere are many in your country ] have
seen, who are, so many pledges that the IN
dependence oft will be achieved, In fact,
it is all eady virtually fixed. The germ.of
liberty is bursting into vigorous Shoots
The several states are holding conventions
to establish constitutions of government,
and order and harmony must be the result.
Congratulate YOURSELF my dearest friend,
for you may rest in perfect safety that the
great struggle is 70 close gioriously for
whena people as large as the American
nation will be free, they must be Free
Heaven prospers those who dare assist
themselves.
:" The lovers Of freedom have cause 10
rejoice throughout the world. Yourcoun-
trymen have, by this perilous conflict,
brought forth talents, which they them
selves are unconscious Of possessing. The
energies Of man have always been found O.
quail TO their exigencies. If untoward fate
did not repress them. Separated, as you
are, from the old world by three thousand
miles of water. it will be found impossible
for amy one nation to transport a sufficient
number OF men to your shores in the end
to conquer those determined to be Free
Half d century, mere hour in national ex-
istenco, will give your country popula-
ton Of more than ten millions. You may
then laugh at the world when they talk
Of snbdIing you. Your calculations have
boen considered dreams by the old world,
bnt ! entreat you to dream on, the truth
will outstrip your calculations. and the
coming time will fulfil your prcphesies.
- shall not live to see all this realized.
The genius Of my country, clothed in
blood stained mantle, IS forever before my
eyes, and points me to my place ofrest.---
The wide shroud prepared for me has on
liz "gouts Of blood - but do not under
stand me as locking on this rs q dreaded
spectre. Oh no il exactly suits my fam
cy. wish to die in 80 good d cause:
wish to sleep in the bed Of glory, and 10
fall in the discharge OF my duty. There
. something yet TO be done, and u doing
hope TO perish. ! brood over Poland,
but Poland is not yet 70 pc regenerated.-
The incubus ot despotism Is on her breast,
and commissions may ensue; but no free
dom can be obtained BY this paroxysm.
The Russian power IS increasing and
will increase for perhaps half century to
come, but her decline after this is certain.
