FRANCE 10 REE
A long struggle it has been-hrst bursting into
the wild excesses. of sudden political emancipation

Shaping the chains imposed by the allied powers
and again yielding to time-serving conservatism.
But France had tasted the sweets of Liberty

Napoleon said that ''the stomach governs the
world" Nations are distinguished by the quality
of their cookery, and are indebted greatly for energy
of character to the perfection ofdgestion. While
the ancient Romans lived in simplicity, they were
nvncible but when luxury crept in, physical and
mental enervation followed, until they were no
longer able to resist the more hardy northerners.
BY improving digestion, and removing morbihc
humofs, Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills become
a great moral and politicl engine. They clear the
head, and by the buoyancy of spirit which they
impart improve the heart. They thus exercise a
powerful influence in favor of civil liberty. The
energy of People depends measurably upon
the health of a people, and the maintenance OF
their rights depends upon their energy. Therefore
give health, and you give energy and sustain pop
ular governmet.
Let all, then, cherish health, not merely for the
enjoyment which it brings, but for the gigantic in
terests which depend upon it. Let Wrghts In
dian Vegetable Pills be used in the spring, to
prevent disease in the fall. Had Louis Philippe
been man of common sagacity, he would have
ceded to the people those little reforms for which
they asked, and would thus have STAYED off a rev.
ohition. But he not only denied them but added
,to
which the people had. Matter and mind are gov
erned by the same general laws. Abuses may
accumulate in the human body, which revolution
alone can remove I; whereas, by moving in time
the evil day is postponed indefinitely.

al salute, and lands a Minister Plenipoten-
tiary, who hastens to Washington and pre-
sents his credentials 10 the President. The
Executive sees not only the Representative
Of Liberia before him, but in that representa-
tive he recognizes Tom, the former slave of
his next door neighbor, and who, but a
twelve month before, he had himself arrested
and sent 10 the calaboose for a Jogging, be-
cause he was abroad wiihou, free papers or
a pass. The feelings Of His Excellency I'M
der such circumstance would probably come
under the comprehensive head OF "more east
" imagined than described" But The cere-
mony Of reception must be properly gone
through with, and the negro ambassador Of
Liberia must be treated with the same re.
spect and attention as the representatives Of
other governments. This would open a
scene Of equality and fraternity, which,
however much it might accord with the views
Of abolitionists, would certainly CRATE very
harshly upon the nerves Of the a~n'i-dmalga-
mdfionisis Of the South, who, with all their
slaveholding notions and prejudices clinging
about them would be compelled to SIT with a
negro, 10 eat with a negro, TO have their
wives and daughters dance with a negro,
and to address a negro by honorable tides
And then, too, when a Liberian packe; made
a voyage to Charleston, the minions of Cal
houn would not dare to shut up in Jail the
negro seamen and officers. The very men
South Carolina had colonized because they
were " greater nuisances than even the slaves
themselves" {" the most degraded and ADAM
doned race on EARTH" driving them from the
State by her cruel laws, have now returned,
and are walking upon her soil in all the new
born dignity Of Liberian citizenship. South
Carolina dare not touch them, for their go
vernment has a Minister at Washington who
would instantly demand restitution and apo
logy for any wrong done or insult offered
them. And then, too, the Liberian flag would
give protection 10 the colored seamen OF
Massachusetts, or any other free State that
cannot protect the rights Of its own citizens
in Southern poris-should they take refuge
on board the Liberian vessel. Would the
South tolerate such a state of things! Nay,
verify! And the American who expects this
government TO recognize the sovereignty of
a negro nation while slavery exists here, is
greatly lacking in sagaciiy, to say the least.
