TIE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE

lcan politics. II is customary TO trace
back the origin Of our national existence
and our American Union 10 the Feder-
al Constitution, or 10 The Articles of
Confederation. But tourrnalional exist

birth in the Declaration oCIndependeDce.
The putting forth Of This paper was the
first sovereign act of the American peo~

a Union already decided on. and no,

though a seven years war. Il, is not
worthy, that the object Of the Consitu-
non, as set forth by itself, is not to orig>
inale a Uninn, but ''to form more pet-
feet Unon''-ihatis, is, TO improve on an
already existing Union. Tho Articles
of Confederation and the Federal Con-
stluion were but expedienis for promo

do not forget that the Declaration
of Independence has fallen into disre-

men who adopted it. They ridicule Il,

with saying 'ha, men are born with e.

The SENATE have acted well and wisely in

gate and decide upon claims against the United

gress has been heretofore consumed in the con
sideration of these claims with result arrived at
often unsatisfactory to the parties ar suspected
by the people. Outside influences of Il most dis.
reputable character are knownto be employed in
securing favorable adjudications, and members
of Congress have not deemed il dishonest TO nc
cept fees to prosecute claims before the body of
which they were members and in whose deeis-
sions they had Il yotc-acting in the double and

tor. with a salary of $4,000 and the records are

The court are to decide upon all claims referred

institution of such tribunal will bring no incon-
