FREEDOM!

EhIAILlCN'Nl
Is the boasted epithct which every body
applies to every thing belonging to himself,
and his, in this Republican land of ours ;
and yet, unqucstionably, many of us, in
many respects, arc practically slores =
slaves to our imaginings-slaves 10 our
PaSslons-slavcs to our unholy tempers,
and slaves to the iron rule of others and
others, too, often our interiors in everything
which gives character and Importance to
man.
But the worst kind Of slavery of which
we can conceive, is that continual dread
which haunts the minds Of some nc n, tha,
something dreadful or destructive will be
sure to happen to them, in consequence OF
their adopting certain course, or cxprcs-
sing certain oplnons-howcvcr correct
that course, and those sentiments and opin-
Ions may be; because, forsooth they hap
pen not TO chime in exactly with the cic1a-
ton of others. Now, l. should like to be
informed, OF wha: Use the right of opinion,
or the freedom Of Speech, or of the Press,
the boastcd inheritance Of Tic American
citizen, Is, or can be. to any man, unless
he, sometimes, and in regard to some things.
exercise that right
Another kind Of slavery, equally as ex-
acting, and mu:h more ptifuI and con-
temptiLle, is that cringimg scrrility of spirit
which manilests itself in some men, by first
seeking TO find out the popular current of
things and opinions, and then falling in
with the torrcnt-notwilhstandng it bids
fair to lay waste the landmarks of truth and
justice, and the right Of personal indcpen-
dcncc. We are aware, and admit, that
decent respect for the opinions Of others, is
not only proper, but indispensable in the bu
sincss OF life; but yet this respect is to be
maintained, and maintained only. consist
emily with the right of individual opinion,
and individual duty.
When my duty prescribes to me certain
course, no man, nor set of men, has the
right to dictate to me another course
Coacords frequently profess TO see the right
only i'll the way dictated to them by others,
when their own sense and judgment, if
permitted to be exercised at all, as we'll as
thenature ofthc case, would instantly show
them, that the Truth lies in an entirely diff
ferent direction.
If l be a Free-man,-let me be a Free-
man; if l have the rights of Freeman, let
me enjoy at least some of those rights But,
ifI mean TO be tool for every man, or
any one else, who sees fit to make use of me
for a purpose, why, let me let it be known,
that | may be treated: and execrated, aceor-
dinghy. "VERBuM SAp.'

NUMBER 26.

The i,,,icwing lines were written some
years since by the~..22tc Col. Hardin, while
in Washington City, and"eGccloscd in let
ter to his wife. They are repletse;2;ii!h the
most touching eloquencc:
Bury me not, when I am dead,
Amidst the city's glare
Where thoughtless, careles mortals tread.
And wealth and misery are wed;
Oh! bury me not there.
Bury me not, when I'm no more,
High on mountain bare
Where naught but eagles DER it soar.
And storms and tempests round it roar:
Oh bury me not there.
Bury me not, when Pm at rest,
Where martial pcnnons glare
FOR c empty show and gorgeous crest
CannevcE soothe an icy breast;
Then bury me not there.
Bury me not, when shall sleep,
BY oceans rocky lair;
Where winds and waves their vieiIs keen.
And ever means the restless deep
Oh! bury me not there
Bury me not, when am gone,
In boundless prairies, where
The buried dead are left alone,
Unmarked except by cold grave Stone
Oh! bury me not there.
But bury me, when I shall die,
Midst woods and flowers rare
When DER my grave the winds may sigh,
The birds MAJ sing, and friends are nigh,
Oil bury me then there.

PROGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES
When Washington was inaugurated the
first President of the United States, a popu-
lation of some 3,50O,O 900 souls then occupied
thirteen States on the A, lantic coast, cover
ing an area of some 473,90O square miles.
The population of these United States has
swellcd to 20,O0O,0O0. They have added
$4,000 square miles 10 their represented
territory: They have risen to the first rank
as commercial nation, and have success
fully disputed with England, the dominion
of the Seas. They have become an object
of dread to the despots of Europe, and of ad-
niration and hope to the nations Of the
world. Their flag is respected IN all quar-.
tiers ofthe world, and their friendship court
ed by all nations. They have successfully
pushed their claims to the Pacific Ocean,
and doing 80, have been declared in Europe
as the first nation that has " obtained from
the fears of England what her sense nfjus-
tice would not yield" These wonderful
results are, doubtless, mainly to be attribu-
ted to the virtue, energy and freedom Of the
people.-N Y. SCI, Amer.

A Vicious HoRsE.-Our readers will re-
collect the horrible circumstance near
Binghampton, last spring, of man being
torn to pieces by vicious horse. This
same animal is now owned by Mr.. Thorn
as Cafferty, in the east part of this town.
and on Saturday last he attacked and came
near killing boy ID years of age, in the
employ of MIR. Caferty. While leading
him through h the gateway, the horse sudden
ly seized the boys arm while he piled his
fore feet with fearful vigor. After about
fifteen minutes, the boy succeeded in loos-
ing himself from the gripe of the horse, and
crawled through Il fence out of his reach
Thence he went into the house and alarm
ed the family. Mr. CafTerty Immediately
went into the pasture to secure the horse
and while attempting TO bride him was
himself attacked by the infuriated animal.
In endeayoring to escape MIR. Caferty
fell, and the horse plunged over him, carry
ing his hat with him, which he stamped
into the ground with prodigious Violence
BY the time Mr. G. had regained his feet,
the horse turned and again plunged at him;
but by that time several of the family and
others had reached the spot, and Mr.. G. was
rescued from his minent danger.
The boy is badly injured, his arm beng
mashed to jelly, and his body much
bruised by the knees and feet Of the horse.
1t $ hoped, however, that his arm will be
saved.-Os,oego Advertiser.
