A STRONG AND MAGNIFICENT GovERNMENT.-To
those who regret the newness Of our country, and
lament that it is yet unfinished with those great
establishments and glorious institutions which are
peculiar to the monarchies Of the old world, the
prospect held out by Mr.. MARcys report must bring
much consolation. His various recommendations
foreshadow state Of things in the United States
which will leave us little to regret in the Old World.
The prospect now is that the country is TO be
blessed with formidable stdnding army This
is one Of those establishments TO which the anglo-
Saronism Of which we boast has not been very
friendly; but no matter France, Austria, and Rus
STA have them in full feather, and why not the Uni
ted States This army is to consist of 10000
men; Or if the volunteers which are demanded shall
be called out, of 10000 men. Such an army is i'm
posing. Our citizens, when travelling abroad, can
hereafter hold up their heads when standing armies
are the theme. II is true the serfs of Nicholas can
hold up their heads little higher at present, but
by happy fostering Of the present policy it is i'm
possible to say how soon, in these days Of railroads
and telegraphs, we may not enjoy the comfort
and honor Of sustaining an army as large as the
Autocrat OF the Russias.--H. Louis Neu Era.
