The Dnv We Celebrate.

IT used to be that the Fourth of July was
sung in song, and extolledin high-wrought
orations, as marking the greatest event in
time, the promulgation OF what Is known
as the Declaration of American Indepen-
dence. The commemoratlon of this event.
by public demonstration, has not been very
general for few years past, nor will 1t be
at all universal to-day, though 1t will be
accepted and observed as general holiday.
Where the orator is an Aboltionist, the de-
claration that "all men ale created equal'
will serve as the foundation for grandilo-
uuent Grafton, wherein the Black man will
be made to figure almost exclusively; and
the declaration that to secure life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness" Govern
ments are instituted among men, deriving
their just powers from the consent OF the
governed" VIII be ignored, unless it can
be twisted so as to have reference to the
Black man alone. YiiN 4&.fH sW,i
That the authors of the Declaration OF
Independence spoke in behalf of no other
than the White race Is manifest from the
statement in their chapter of grievances
against the King Of Great Britain, that she
has ercited domestic ,,,surrection amongst u.s."
'.Domestic insurrection" was not excited
amongst the white people Of the colonies,
but tamongst the Black men held In slavery
by the people of the colonies, This Cir
cumstance was recounted as grievance
that they summed up with others into the
general count which. they regarded as JUS
tifying the separation Of the colonies from
the mother country. '- s.ifL.. .i..
Itdoes not come within the range Of rea-
son to suppose that they intended to em-
brace the Black men held in servitude in
this country in the declaration that 'all
men are. created equal.' The adoption Of
the articles of Confederation, aud ,subse-
quently the adoption of the Constitution of
the United States, and the legislation in
pursuance thereof, all go to establish that
fact beyond peradventure. They were
whitemen, acting for White men. intending
to establish a Government for White men
4uloN 70 iWnav ISNy SohbSAaPio"SNNf "'iNt
they evidently were impressed with,
the idea that they had laid the foundation
for such Government, and it Is with this
understanding that the Declaration Of In
dependence should'lbe read. If the Black
man has, since the adoption of that instrul
ment, outgrown the expectations Of its fra
mers in mental stature, in intelligence and
in capacity to exercise the governing pow
er, that is altogether another question, and
it tremains for the white race Of to-day to
determine whether they will elevate him to
political equality with themselves. i.9
The doctrine Of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, thst Governments are instituted
among men, deriving their Just powers from
the consent of the governed" as applied to
White men, in the past worked beneti-
Gently, and cannot fail to work beneficently
in the future, if the Administration shall see
1t religiously enforced. -- " @|

adWhen the surprise and indignation at
tendant on the announcement of the assas-
sination of President LINCOLN began to
lull, the Abolition Clergy and Press affect
ed to discover in it a dispensation of Divine
Providence, having for its object the en-
forcement upon the .'powers that be-" and
upon the people in the "loyal' States, the
necessity of dealing out to the Rebels JUS
tice more stern and implacable than Presi-
dent LINCOLN was inclined to deal out to
them. In effect, they said that not only
President LINCOLN, but the people in the
"loyal" States, were provoking the dis
pleasure of the Almighty by incllning their
hearts too much toward leniency. In re-
ferring to the probable finding of the Mill
tary Commission in relation to the Assas-I
lsin-C Conspirators, the Washington special
OF The Ohio State Journal says: sr9u2i,lal
~ 'eThere is cause to fear that n,istdkenclem-
ency will interfere to prevent the course OF
Justice in many of these cases." .sonH 20

in President JeHNsoN's administration,
