The Hawk-eye and Iowa patriot. (Burlington, Iowa) 1839-1843, 1840-07-23

Roman Senate, and still the empire was
| called the republic, and all was done in
the name of that republic, and through the
instrumentali,y of that Senate-and vet
We're not Rome's liberties taken from her!
Was she not ruled with an iron sceptre?
Was not the commonwealth swallowed
up in the Empire! And are not her name
and history left us an eternal warning
against the gradual and silent assumption
OF power through legal forms and legal
bodies!
General Finch asks, {. Was ever the
press more free? Was ever the tongue
more unrestrained! Was ever man more
free!
Tie Caesars did not, at first, invade
these most open, notorious, and valued
rights of man. No usurper ever did This.
These are the last rights to take away.
Let not Americans expect that domestic
lnvasions upon their liberties will come
openly, and in the light, nor that they
will come in acts and forms confessedlv
illegal or palpably unauthorized. They
will probably come in forms which are
familiar, and under the countenance Of
law.
AS an opportunity now offers, sir, to
send these papers to you. l mus, leave
them unfinished. 1t was my intention to
advert to several other matters in General
Finch's speech-such as the accounting
for the expenditures--the specie circular
Clay and Webster's opinions in
1924, and their application-the difficult
ties in $4,000, &c-the over issue of
paper currency-the old SANDER of Gen.
Harrson's Communicable rippecanoe
battle-and or duty on becoming state,
on which point agree, in the main with
Gen. Finch--these further subjects must
be left to your care.
Yours, &c.
