THE FALL OF FEDERALISM.

We recollecl may, we shall never forget
a remark a friend Of ours made-be 10 dead
nov. Hewas 40 od man; he had fingered
long upon ear,h, yet each day Of his life had
added honors of virtue 10 his thin pale brow.

our venerable friend, was an unyieldlDg DEM
ocrat, and held It among his duties 10 contr-
bue all In.hIs, power, by just means. to advance
the interests Of thai party. The remark to
which we refer, was made by him. when the
result of The last PresidentiaI-caOvass was be>
coming hour after hour more fatally Certain
He was speaking Of the great disaster, when
he sad-'There is just God who will not
smile upon their uDhoy triumph?
Often s,nce then have we recalled to mlOd,
the old mans prophetic maxim. How short
time was 1t before il was fulfilled! Amid The
,senseess whooping Of bis supporters, the Pres
ident elect made his trumpba progress from
North Bend TO The Federal city; and deafened
with their accamatons he ascended to his lol
iy station. .One short month. The worship
ped posseseor of power, lay striped OF all
cold, senseless wrap in the gorgeous. but un-
meaning drapery of regal death. The same
bands whose martial fronts and streaming ban.
ners, had received HIM as their chief came
slowly and sadly to d. the last honers for bis
.llfeless clay. The same cannon that had shou
led their boserous welcome four weeks be-
fore, now loled in slow and regular peals the
last march Of the brave And this was the
Presden, of the United States William Hen
~ Harrison HIM whom the natural enemies
of freedom had pushed BY fair means and foul
into his high station! And when We heard this
we thought of the old mans words
Time flew on-JOhn Tyler became Pres'
dent. The g'eat measure of Federalism pas
sed both houses; and the Executive vetoed i'll
Then came confusion worse confounded.'
Their vast army divided into guerrilla bands,
turned their arms against each other, and riot
and ruin cast their banners TO The dust. And
when we saw their utter dispersion, we again
remembered the saying.
Since then, one defeat has followed another,
until hardly State islefl 10 guard The Lug.

thirty.6ve millions of dollars, cheated The peo
pie who held the notes Of that Bank oul Of mil"

like cattle in the market, and did mare TO cor
rupt The morals of this country than any ten
thousand men now living. has beon released
from legal responsibility by Pennsy lvanla

Amos Kendall, who redeemed The Post o.

rupon, compelled every man in lis service TO
do his dutyto The country and refused topay
out moneys to powerful contractors, to which
he believed they had no just claim in awor

cour. in judgment for eleven thousand dol

UNANIMOUS.

II is a singular fact that every Democratic
paper IN the Union, without an exception;
comes out boldly and fearIessly in favor of the
Constitutional movemen, IN Rhode Island in
favor of the peoples cause, and opposed to
the restriction on the right Of suffrage, and Of
the landhoderS' aristocratic government Of that
State. and demand change while the Fed
eral Wing prints with one or two honorable
exceptous) are as unanimously opposed to the
peoples cause opposed 10 any extension Of
the right of suffrage, and uphold the arislocrat
ic government OF that State, and are determlD-
ed that the people of Rhode Island shall live
under an arsocratic charter, granted lhe,h by
Charles Second of England, and nothing else.
Thus it ever is-any popular movement Of the
people is always opposed by the Wings or ar
istocrals Of this country, precisely as they are
opposed by the same class in monarchial Eu~
rope. Most truly are they called "British
Whigs!p They ale TORIES. as many of
their fathers were IN the revolution.

TO OUR FRIENDS.

We are making arrangements (the particulars
will be announced at the opening of the ses-
sion) which will, We think, secure the Madisonian
more universal circulation. Our incessant abors
for the last twelve months have impaired our
health, and rendered occasional relaxation absolutely
necessary. We have therefore secured the services
of of the best writers of the day, Who assist
ant editor, will devote his whole time to the paper
We have secured correspondents in many of the
States, whose letters will keep readers constantly
advised of the political movements throughout the
Union.
We will give daily condensed report of the pro-
ceedings of both Houses Of Congress; and the most
important speeches will be published at length in our
columns.
The Official transactions of the Government will
be published in the Madisonian exclusively.
The views and purposes of the Executive, in ref
crence to the course and policy Of the Administra-
ion, will, as heretofore, be made known through the
columns of this paper.
The PRINCIPLES Of the Madisonian are known to
be those Of the REPUBLICAN PARTY Of '96 They
will be adhered to through sunshine and storm.
We ask our friends, who the advocates of Truth
and Justice to exert themselves in behalf of the
Madsonian, between this and the assembling of
Congress, so that the organ of the Administration
may not only be efficient in repelling attacks, but in
carrying, when necessary, the war into Africa.
