THE GOVERNMENT.

"A more unjust, dishonest, extravagant, and
I" tyrannical Government never existed on earth
/" than that under which we live.'
So says an eloquent correspondent Of the South
Carolnian; and is it not wonderful that men can
persuade themselves into such notions The fact
is, that the National Government is just far from
being tyrannica and oppressive that we hardly feel
its operation one way or the other. When we read
the newspapers, want to buy piece of public land,
or the census man or the Presidential or Congress
sional elections come round, we are reminded of
the Government; and, perhaps, but for these things
never would think of the Government at all. A
little dose of even French Republicism would be
good for men who talk in this silly style, and few
hours under Turkish Sultan would effect perfect
cure. When men desire to kick up fuss and
can't find reason, but are forced to draw upon
their fancies, il is astonishing what drafts they will
sign-Fyorida Sentinel.
