AN HONOR DECLINED.

In noticing the article in this paper few DAYS
since in regard to the profered honor rendered by
Mr.. MADISON to JOHN QUINCY ADAMS of a seat
on the bench of the Supreme Court, the Buffalo
Commercial Advertiser cites another declination of
the same office, 1t says:
'sWe presume it is known to but few that the came
distinguished homer declined by SILAs WRIGHT; but
such is the fact and the circumstances may be de-
scribed without ndiscretion On the death Of SMITH
THOMPSON, in 1929, President TYLER offered Mr..
WRIGHT the vacant seat the bench No place under
the Government would have been so acceptable to Mr.
Wright, as he remarked when the Office was rendered
him and if his had been sent to the Senate with
out consulting him in advance he would have been unani
mousy confirmed without delay, the usual formalties
attendant upon the action of the Senate nominations
being dispensed WITH as is usually the when dis
ted IT. we say, this had been taken by the Pres
dent he would have accepted the place. and might
now, have been Of the ornaments of the Supreme
Court 1t was suggested to Mr. Tyler by the gentleman
charged with the task Of comforting with Mr. Wright
the subject that his party obligations would constrain
him to decline If spoken to before being nominated ;
whereas the would wear different aspect if he
should be appointed without being apprzed of the honor
intended him. Mr.. Wright took similar view of the
matter and after expressing his conviction that under
the circumstances he could not agree take the place
added that he never had expected be called upon
make so heavy sacrifice to his party for the office Of
all others, he said, would have best suited his inclina
tons and habits of mind"

THE TRAINERS OF THE CONSTITUTION AND
SLAVERY

Messrs. EDITORS: The journal of the Convention to
frame the present Constitution of the United States ex
hbits the following facts in connection with the subject Of
slavery:
The first committee the subject consisted OF Rut
ledge, of South Carolina Randolph of Virginia Wilson Of
Pennsylvania Gorham, of Massachusetts, and Ellsworth
OF Connecticut; and they reported section for the
Constitution "that no tax or other duty shall be laid on
the migration or importation of such persons as the
several States shall think proper to admit nor shall
such migration or importation Isprohibited"
This was the first action Of the Convention on the
slavery questions and it will be seen that committee
the majority of which were from what are strong anti
slavery States reported against any future prohibition OF
the African slave trade, but willing to legaze il
perpetually. ~.
This section was subsequently referred to committee
selected by ballot consisting Of Lapgdon of New Hamp
shlre King, Of Massachusetts,, Johnson of Connecticut
Livingston, OF New Jersey, Clymer, of Pennsylvania
Dickinson, OF Delaware, Martin, of Maryland Madison
of Virginia, Williamson, Of North Carolina Pnckney. OF
South Carolina, and Baldwin, of Georgia.
This committee, majority of which were from saps
Safes hen and now reported the clause with authority
to Congress to prohibit the slave trade after The year 1900
and IN the mean time with authority to levy tax on
such importatons This section afterwards modified
and adopted it exists in the Constitution extend
the trade until 18oS-Massachusett New hampshire
and Connecticut, free States, and Maryland, North and
South Carolina, slave States voting for the extension
New Jersey and Pennsylvania free States and Delaware
and Virginia, slave States, voting against it.
From the above it appears a.. ..&.
lst committee the majority Of which were from
free States, reported in favor of denying to Congress tbs
power at any period to prohibit the African slave trade
I'd That subsequent committee, majority of which
were from the slasc States, reported new section au
thorzng Congress to abolish the trade after the year
1900 .t. ....
3D. That this period extended until the year 1905
thus giving eight additional years to the traffic by the
vote of New Hampshire Massachusetts, and Connecticut
whilst the vote of Virginia against such extension
We're the representatives in that Convention from these
three New England States less yiruous or less patriotic
than those of the present day. and would it not be as
well for the latter, when Illuminating their anti slavery
anahemas orecoect how their sres voted acted on
the question: and that their may according the
Arabian prsyerb, like young chickens, come home to
roost ?' ....

THE NAVY.

InsoyArroy-There is much dissatisfaction manifested
ut the practice recently adopted by the Navy Department
in the razeeing of our large vessels of war.
The gate Macedonian rated at 3S guns and carrying
"A which captured by the frigate United States
Capt DECATUR forty years ago. has been cut down to
sloop1 of-war 49,.
Ii has also been suggested that the Constellation the
frigate in which TRUxroN fought and French ship
nearly twice her size, be also cut down. We think how
ever there danger of this still noble and gallant
reminder Of our countrys prowess and her childrens
bravery being thus turned for the sake of national
my into floating monument of nations want Of pa
triotism. If build monuments to the
victories Of armies, certainly afford to retain
Old Ironsides in the garb she when she honored
the American flag
The preceding is from respectable New York
paper, but the writer of it is, we think, not well
informed on the subject of his paragraph. Neither
the Macedonian nor the Constellation have been cut
down from frgates to soopsofwar, as both of those
vessels have been condemned and broken up, and
two new vessels have been built to which those
names have been given in order to perpetuate them
in our navy. Though the two now vessels have
light spardeck thrown over their guns for the pur-
pose of working ship clear of the armament, as
well to protect the latter from falling spars and
rigging in time of action, they STILL it is true, are
only what may be called sloops-ofwar or single
deck vessels, as their spardeck is without arma-
ment, except one heavy piyot-shell gun forward
and another aft But still the ghosts of the old
frgates need in no way be ashamed of them, for
they probably the two finest ships of their class
that float the ocean, and, though designated as
sloops-of-war, they each exceed in tonnage their
former namesakes; and fitted and armed as they
are with shell-guns and all the modern naval i'm
proyements, either of them could capture or de-
stroy in ten minutes frigate such as was the Con-
stellation when commanded by TRuxrEN or the
Macedonian when captured by DECATUR.
1t is the opinion of experienced naval men that
but few years will elapse before such vessel
line-of-battle ship will be rarity in the navy
of any nation, and the heaviest of vessels for war
purposes will be armed only on one deck with full
battery of shell-guns; for such ship would be a
match for the present leviathans like the Napoleon
and the Wellington, which could be sunk by a
single well planted ten-inch shell, and which affords
mark above water double or treble the bulk of a
single-decked vessel like the new Constellation or
Macedonian. ....
In FORMER times vessel similar to either of the
latter would not for single moment attempt to
contend with line-ofbatte ship; but now, with
their long Paixhan she'll guns they could do SO with
some equality as to success, and particularly as
the greater portionof the armament of those heavy
two and three-deekers are the ordinary 32-pounders
with but small number of the heavy shellguns.

j" YOUNG AMERICA"

In natural history We believe that most of the
ephemera have been so profoundly studied that all
their various changes, from the Drum, which, if we
are not mistaken, Professor Agazzis declares to be
the primary state of all animated nature to maturity
and death, are accurately known. How long they
remain undeveloped in the egg, what time they
creep as pnpe, the number of days they rest from
the labor and necessity of seeking food in their
ch'ysat's state, and how long they futer in their
pride of gaudy wings, have all been noted and de-
fined with scientific certainty. But hitherto there
has been one tulcola of this nnumerablc family
which has eluded all attempts at investigation
How sprung into existence, what were its respec-
tive terms of pupa, chrysals, and papi1io, was all
problem to the Naturalist. Happily, we are at
length enabled to solve the great mystery. "Young
America" has fulfilled its mission and is dead In
the short space of tortynine acecks it has passed
from infancy to old age, decrepitude, and death );
and, what is most extraordinary its unnatural pa
rent has the cruelty to acknowledge, in its eptaph
that his offspring, throughout its brief life, neoer
held a uery afectionate place IN has bosom. The
beautiful and prosperous city Of Chicago, the resi-
dence of the great embodiment" of g Progressive
Democracy" was the place of its birth and death.
Whether any differences may be drawn from these
condolences favorable or unfavorabe to the future
OF the party leave to the sagacty of our readers
We have done our duty in chronicling an event Of
the times a.,........
FRoh THE CHICAGO " YOUNG AMERICA" OF AUGUST 90.
yALEDioroRY.-This mornings issue terminates the
existence of fosng Am0ieC" In the course of human
events all things must later die Thus in the
present instance reminded the old aagc of the
uncertainty Of all things here below. Young America
dies, and the death is voluntary and, like infant on
Its parents breast it calmly sinks to rest without any
throes of agony conscious pain. The nomms de plume
by which sheet has been recognised has never held
very ssctionate place in bosom and although the
name disappears, still the embodiment remains and will
s be seen at your resides and places of business we
doubt not much improved in merit and calibre and be
quite as welcome has been Young America +
The next issue Of this paper will be under different
name, and under the management Of whom We COM
mend to the patrons of Young America.
