laughed at for their pains: But let US
81 back an1 look upon this question in
general view. The principles OF true
democracy and equality stand ifmly, out
in the Foundation of our government !;
and the very idea of an exclusive class.
NJ matter what their pretcntions may be.
is as foreign to the principles of eguali-
ty. as chattel slaves in a country whose
soil was dedicated by the blood of our
fathers to the sacred principles of liberty,
are foreign to the idea of freedom and
the tendencies of our American people

ciPles Of equality, upon which we as "a
nation profess to stand.
Aristocracy, then. has mott cannot
have, a firm and substantial basis under

al this silly ;rumpery that passes under
its name. will all die out when we como
up to the true standard to which the
declaration of independence aims; but
if we persist in encouraging and ae-
knowledsins the existence of superior
class, whose claims to superiority rest
upon any other basis, than that of moral
AMI intellectual worth, if We strain all
our nerves to obtain popular favor, los
ing sight Of the principles of virtue and
integrity, and endeavoring to build cur
position in the world upon any other
foundation than these, we are false. not

Revenue Laws.

We invite the attention of ship own.
ers merchants and ship builders. TO the
article copied into our columns from the
Portland jdrertser, on the bill reported
to Congress by the Representative from
this District. which processes to eodify
and simplify the existing revenue laws
There are provisions in this bill in
which the people have an interest, and
which, if the Advertiser has CORRECTLY
stated, will materially atfec. those enga-
ged in ship building, as we'll as the own
ers of navigation. Mr. Fuller will have to
display his transcendent abilities in some
other way. and on some other subject to
make the people believe he is the great
man of the delegation, and tina. the. del
cgation, will be powerless for good" when
his term expires.
Mr.. Fuller, from the Committee on
Commerce has reported to Congress a
bill which processes To codify and simpli-
fy existing revenue laws. and introduces
new ones So stringent, that we NAV well
apply to them the epithet of barbarous.
We will poin, out some of the most OBJ
jectionable sections. and in the mean time
hoPo that the present Congress will post
ponc the bill to the next, SO as to give
our shipowners time 10 be heard in this
matter.
In chapter third. section second, the
bill allows foreign vessels to engage in
, our coasting trade by paying one dollar
per ton annually, tonnage duties. if she
is owned by citizen of the United States
Under this law, every ship owner in
the British Provinces, would have an
American branch to his house. the part
ner residing in the United States being
naturalized
The measurement Of vessels instead of
being defined by law, is lef. to the Sec
rotary Of the Treasury, who a, this time
is Kentucky lawyer. who would be as
much at fault on board ship as a sailor
would be on Kentucky plantation. and
the Secretary is permitted to change or
alter these rules from time to time.
Our present law OF tonnage we know
is wrong, Blu: what Congress ought to
do is to enact a law similar TO the new
British law, to wit: giving the actual
capacity of the vessel measured at diff
erent parts, and not at one or two only.
Chapter 5, section Is, says that if any
person or persons leave the ship after
her arrival until possession is taken of
neY bv a custom house officer the
master shall be fined from one hundred
to one thousnd dollars, the vessel shall
be liable to seizure and fefeiture.
