The correspondence between Lady Franklin and the
President through the Secretary of State) which we
publish in another column, will be found exceedingly in
terestng; and satisfied with the lntelhgencer,
that there is no one be he wing democrat, whose
feelings will not be moved by the appeal both eloquent
and affecting, by Lady Franklin TO the President" The
sacrifices to the OF geographical science which the
distinguished husband of this lady has made, well
known to, and appreciated by, the whole civilized world,
as by his counrymen and grathed TO learn
that all the faculties of the government, in the exercise
of its constitutional powers, TO be exeed in aid of
discovering the fate of Sir Johns expedition We
not permit ourselves to doubt that hundreds of
brave and adventurous countrymen will be found willing
and eager to "une their efforts in the truly Christian
work of saving their pershng feow-men from desruc-
ton" and thus securing mankind the results of this
celebrated expedition.
Blu, there is one expression in the letter of the Secre
tary OF State which we could have wished had beer
omitted. We do not wish appear too capous in ouI
criticism gives pleasure to select MIR. Clayton
as the object of remark but we cannot permit ex
preston which he employs TO escape protest. les
the weight of his example should give it currency We
allude the sentence in which he tells Lady Franklin
1.-The appeal made in the letter with which you have
honOred him Is such as would strongly enlist the synpa
thy of the rulers and the people of any portion of the civ
lized world" This sentence is comprehensive enough
to take in the government of the United States; and Il
say the least of it, the context makes it equvocal. Blu
regret that any expression should have inadvertently
escaped the Secretarys pen which is susceptible Of such
meaning Rulers! Rulers in the United States! Oui
government our rulers The idea is at war with the
whole theory OF institutions. Our public functona
res from the highest to the lowest, have appropn
atey been called the of the people The people
alone are led the oyeregn The word it is true
is used in the Declaration of American Independence de
nouncing the King OF Great Britain un6t to be the
Ruler of free people" However proper that term may
have been at that period of history, being then in
transition from colonial free and independent con
diton, has from that moment ceased to be applicable
far as the people OF the United States are concerned
It then defined the relations which existed between the
King of Great Britain and the people of the colonies
cannot properly apply the relations between free peo
pie AMI the agents whom they appoint to conduct the
public affairs. We regret to the expression IN Mr.
Clayton's beautiful letter. 1t doubtless. however

of being thought hypersrca could not resist the in
