banks really solvent IN Philadelphia, Baltimore
Richmond, might very easily resume. Drafts on
all these places are scarce IN our market and al
though they will never rise to par While su'psn'

TIE MCLEOD CASE.


at seems TO us that tho American national
spirit, like Bob Acres's courage, is rapidly 'ooz.
ing out at the fingers ends.' II this was caused
by the true Christian principle Of peace and hu.
mlIlty, It would be TO Us cause Of great JOY, and
be more real aud substantial eylderce Of ma
tionaI improvement than any other; but il Is not
so. The whole root OF II is the reverse. 1t is
the consequence Of national elomuacy--a natu.
raj result Of the universal devotion to lnammon.
I'VE are struck with this, on reading the arru.
ment Of council and the effort Of the Administrator
in the case Of Mcleod.
This fellow, in his folly, boasts (whether
truly OF not that he was one engaged n the de-
srucllon Of the Caroline ! in which Il midnight
murder was committed within the jurisdiction Of
New York, by a band of Canadian marauders
Neither the American nor the English Govern
ments acknowledge any connection with the
matter. Three years afterwards, a man who
processes TO be che ofthe transgressors, is arrest.
ed md forthwith the British Government, in the
| plcnilude Of its assumption, undertakes TO father

| broken interleres 10 annul the cause Of Justice.
| Can Ibis fahcrly protection Of The British Gov
eminent change the nature Of the crime, or de-
priyo the comls OF New York OF their jurisdiction
Besides, 1t is very Car from beng true, that a
man in time Of war, - always screened by The
official shield C the Government. Take for
example, the case Of a spy. No act Of Govern
mcnt can shield him from punishment In the
Revolutionary war Lieut.. Mcpherson was Ia
ken near PRINCETON by Gen. Putnam. He was
demanded by tho Blush General, with the ,hreG
tina, two American officers should be hung 70
