ARIsTooRAcY.--Some Of our partisan iour
mails are engaged in advocating an increase Of
salary to our foreign ministers, because Eng
land is reducing them. :. This is singular po-
sition to take; especially as it is assumed by
the authority Of Lord Palmerston, who says
decidedly, that the salary Of the American
ministers is too low !! to allow them to live ON
the scale Of extravaganza peculiar to- the En-
glish nobility. But why the ambassador of a
republic should conform to the habits and Gus
toms Of a monarchy, we know not? Dr. Frank
I'm did not think 1T necessary; neither did Mr..
Jefferson, nor John q. Adams, nor Henry Clay
England is now taking example by this repub-
lie, by reducing the salaries of her. diplomatic
corps and one reason that influenced her to do
so, was the practice Of the United States
Why should the United States now commit the
monstrous absurdity of initiating English mon-
archy The moral power of a republic con-
sists in her simplicity, and she would not gain
much by departing from the precedent of Benja-
min Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and John O.
Adams. Instead of increasing salaries, it would
be much wiser to reduce them. The war ex-
penses of government, with Mexico, rose to
forty millions; now our peace expenditures are
fifty millions. Increase the salaries OF ambas-
sadors, and others must be increased and a
hundred millions per annum will not satisfy the
government leeches. The salt Of a republic is
economy; and the fewer public agents, the
more secure the rights and liberties of the peo-
Pile. Reduce the civil ist-for H must be re-
