the incessant roar Of cannons. TO brave no more
the Hastings of musketry, or the lightning Of
infuria,ed swords. WASHINGTON had the ex-
IRENE pleasure and qualification, the high honor
of first sitting in this Presidential Chair, the
greatest gift his beloved countrymen could pos
sibly have bestowed upon him. He fled it with
honor. wisdom and justice, and resigned it in
peace. He was one of the greatest men OF
whom Youthful Columbia can boast, one of
the most magnanimous hearts that ever bea.
responsive to the calls of virtue, patriotism and
liberty. He won for himself an unsullied fame;
a fame which will bloom with redoubled brill
liancy and sweetness; fame almost unearthly,
which must and will survive with men, until
the Arehangel shall descend with his chariot
of clouds. until he shall place one foot upon the
land and the sea. and proclaim to man in un-
earthly tones, Time shall be no more Yes.
the name of George WASHINGTON shall live
until the great and glorious luminary. the sun,
in all his majesty, in all his unrivalled brillan-
cy and splendor. shall drive his golden car for
the last time adown the horizon. G. P.

In the election of President of the United
States free negoe and three fitths of slaves are
represented. They are counted in the cleo.
toral vote of every State for the President of
the United States, as fully in their represen
tatiye number as white persons. In the ap
recruitment of the Federal Judiciary, they con-
sttute the nominating power in their full ra-
ito. In no department of the Federal Gov
eminent do We find an equal representation
of free white persons. Your members OF
Congress represent federal numbers. Your
Senators represent States. Your President
is elected bv a combination OF Senators and
REPRESENTATIVES, each State having the same
electoral vote in number as it has members OF
Congress and Senators. Your Judiciary IS
nominated by the President. and confirmed
by the equal vote of the States in the Senate
In the passage ola law from its first reading
to it's final sanction by the President, we see
the voice of majority of free white persons
no where represented. Search the Legsiass
tive, Executive, and Judicial departments Of
that Government, and you can point out no
branch that derives its power from the white
population. Such principle is no where
developed. and had such principle been
engrafied on the Constitution. there would
never have been a union of the States.

FOR THE SENTINEL.
ANSWER TO THE QUESTION
FOR GRAMMARIANS.

This is very beautiful and interes-
ting enquiry, but it would require
treatise rather than mere notice in
periodical. A few instances, howeSy
err, of the uses of the two voices OF
verbs, will be given, with the PRINCIPLES
which regulate them.
In many cases, the choice between
the active and passive verbs, will de-
pend on the genius of the language IN
which they occur Some languages
can employ the active, some, the pas
sive voice with the greater facility.-
Yet a writer or speaker in any LAM
guage, feels The influence Of some gen.
eral principles which he cannot violate.
These depend on the relation OF ms
ideas to external scenes and clrculn-
stances.

The most familiar acquaintance with the
principles and operations Of government, the
most pi ofound knowledge of political econs>
nv, and the utmost intimacy with the resour-
ces and wants of country, are worthless
without action. A legislator may sit behind
his desk. and con whatever Jefferson. Smith,
or Franklin knew, and yet be worthless to
his constituents. Activity and energy are
the qualities that make men useful as well as
great That these are possessed. in emf

LATER FROM MEXICO.

From the fact that private letters
have been received in this city, it is a
fair inference that the government are
in possession of dispatches from Mr..
ShdelI. The COLLECTION, drilling and
arrangement of forces is going on with
erea, spirit, as if in anticipation of
trouble oi'domestc or foreign charac-
ter. Paredes exhibits force of charac-
ter and energy in the management OF
his government, but some of his per-
emptory dictates are not acceded TO IN
that willing spirit which he may desire.
Having ordered certain stringent mea-
sures, and dictated the removal OF
some State officers, disposition to
resist brought out more peremptory Or
ders, and several of the States In the
Northern section are in state of semi
rebellion.
The Legislature have decreed that
no dues or revenue ofany kind shals be
Invested from the uses Of the States to
90 to Mexico. Upon this, Paroles
ordered the dissolution Of the Leglsla-
tive bodies in the offending States, and
affairs remain in that condition that
the next step will decide whether the
government under Paroles, is likely to
assume airy thing like stable charac,
fer. or whether the hostile parties will
rather into somewhat Of a formidable
front. Ar;sta has resigned his
command in anticipation of superse-
