produced, but by appeals the better feelings Of
the heart Of man, that it is to be effected The COM
munty once sufficiently convinced Of its evil. there
will be no more need Of legal penalties, OF pubic
pledges to render it moral and virtuous-the preven-
tadye being in the hcar Of the communicating iron,
the steel safe to which the life and liberty OF every
man was committed by the sagcs that formed our
inimable Constitution. In forming that instrument
with view to it influence over hundreds Of millions,
trial by jury guaranteed TO every one against
whom criminal charge might be brought, which
implied their confidence in the intelligence, honesty
and virtue Of the mass Of the community. No class
or sect was prescribed out Of which jurors were to
be selected, and no rules, other than law, evidence,
and insticc laid down by which the juror is to be
governed in making up his mind upon the guilt or
innocence Of the person charged; nor is there any
penalty applicable to a juror who may be biased IN
his decision, and adhere to a conclusion, however
unjust This wise intrument makes the heart, the
conscience of man, the depository of the power OF
the Government, and who can say that the present
generation has wisdom enough to improve upon the
precepts laid down by the fathers Of their country
In the organization Of political parties, each STRIVING
for the promotion of the welfare OF the country, no"
ever different may be the means by which they are
aiming to effect it, which is the first duty of an
American, no constitution is signed by the people,
and no penalty affixed for those that stray from the
path they have for while followed, but all Is lett
for the government of the conscience. Then 1t
seems 10 be the part of wisdom not to distrust the
conscience, but hy giving it power competent to per-
form the service sought raise it up and by nourlsh-
ing it in all our actions, create pride in having it
made pure which is sure to lead to virtue peace and
morality. This is the kind of morality we desire to
see, and when it shall rise in It's full power, we shall
have but little need of legal enacments to enforce ii
-enactments that from the nature of man, as defined
in the scriptures, the heart is prone to violate Fur
Their if sufficient penalties affixed to give to CON-
munity the appearance of morality, those who have
no disposition to break the laws, would stand upon
an equality with those who prevented from the
commission of crime only by the terror which the
penalty created, and then virtue would live and die
unknown and unexpected.
We have already extended our remarks further
than we intended when we took our seat, and viii
conclude by giving opinion that if the coz
science and pride Of man is appealed to to work re-
FORM ard no other penalty affixed to violation of
his resolution to abstain from inoxica.ion than he
finds within his own bosom, we shall have no need
of laws to prevent the sale ardent SPIRITS but those
engaged in it will close their shops, for want Of Gus
toners, and engage in some other business.

THE NAVY.

One OF our exchange papers, in noticing the
measures before Congress for the enlargement
and modification of the naval establishment, re-
marks that the country will sustain the Govern
ment in whatever may be done to place this ia
vorite arm of the public service on proper foot
ing. Of this we have not the slightest doubt,
and only regret that so much time has been
suffered to pass unimproved in this respect.
MIR. Mangum seems to be moving in the matter
in good earnest and will merit the applause OF
his countrymen for turning his powerful mind
to subject so worthy of his acknowledged
ability. We like to see this much better than
