( raj government, it had produced contrary
effects in the North and the South. In the
North the leading men felt a jealousy or
apprehension Of that level1ing disorganiz-
ing spirit which is impatient Of all con-
troll, and its excess threatens the sacred
ness Of property; and that therefore, they
view the general government with favor
and gratitude, and were disposed to en-
large its powers, which defended them a.
gainst the spirit of INSTRUMENTATION at
home. But in the South, where there is
no ground for such pprehensions-th
class of persons without property being
here filled by slaves-the leading men re-
garded the general government as dimini-
shiug their relative importance, and con-
sequently were inclined to circums cribe
its power within as narrow limits as pos
sible.
ssHe also remarked that there were
three circumstances which contribute to
make the value of the Union less sensibly
felt now then formerly. One was, the
great increase in population and wealth.
! Anothe was, the increase of men OF
talented ambition-though he left it to
us to trace the operati on of these three
!
their application. Nor did he venture
to predict the future effects of the same
circumstances, which will obviously
continue to increases His conversation
was throughout high intellectual treat,
and know not when have passed two
days more delightfully."-. 1t is indeed a
most gratifying spectacle to see that the
luminous mind of this venerable sage
md patriot sheds as clear and almost as
brilliant light as it ever did in the me-
redian, and that the envious clouds which
would obscure its mild radience serve
but to make it more beautiful and inter-
esting.
.sMr. MADISON will leave, when he
shall be inter astra reiatus, an invaluable
legacy to posterity in his debates of the
Convention which formed the Federal
Constitution; for, according to Mr.. JET.
BERsoN, the only person perhaps to whom
the author has ever shown them, never
were the proceedings OF a deliberative
body reported with equal fidelity. Blu
as nothing could induce him to publish
them in his life time, hope it Wills b.
many years before the public has this
gratification.-Nat. Int.

Rhode Island.--The Legislature of Rhode

We learn from the Prs violence City Ca
zette, that new election of Senator in
the Congress Of the United States will
be made, on the ground that the late cleo
ton of Mr.. Robbins was unauthorized
and void, and that Hon. E. r. Potter is
the individual likely to be chosen. The
objection made to the election OF Mr..
Robbins, If we remember it correctly, is,
that at the time when it was made, the
members of the Senate continued to hold
their offices, beyond the perioo when their
term usually expires, there having been
repeated failures on the part Of the peo-
pie to elect new board-Bos. Pat.

Singular Suicides. The Pittsburg advo-

man III this city, we learn the following facts,
which occurred in the neighborhood OF Little
Beaver, in this state. The letter states that
ssa very singular case, or more probably ca
SEES, of suicide took place in this neighDor-
hood within short time back. A woman,
whose name I do not recollect, hung herself
with hank of yarn--her sister, about two
weeks after, followed her example, with the
same hank---and two or three days since
another did the same. The fourth is now
kept closely confined, her friends fearing
she may commit similar act.
aI,ast fall one of the same family hung
herself. making in all four who have been the
means Of their own DEATH, none of which car
be accounted for even by their most intimate
friends. They bore excellent characters
lived in the midst of plenty, and to all APP
pearances were living happy.
