It is therefore ex I tiemely hazardous t leave a theory in government which J government which j aar always opeiarca wen, ana launcn oui upon ine ocean ti untried eipeiiroentr There are many sections of our State cootitu'nn, whieli seems to na, lo be a efficient aa in all probability, buman wisdom cn make them, and there aie others, that fiom practical testa have proven to be wioo. Amors; thoae rqtul in ouiidiea to any is that prt ef Section 12, Aiticle lit, whict say, No person shall be put to ant wer any criminal charge, but by presentment, indictmeot t.f impeachment. An indictment is a wiitten accusation, prvftried by a Grand Jury uuj-r oath to the Coutl it is the disinterested finding f twelve men, indicriminately selected for 'hat purpose. It is the duty of the Giand Jmy to examine into the grounds of accoalirn against o He oder, and if they e just cause, then to find tili of indictment they are sworu lo "diligently enqnire and true presentment make," and yet a wri'er in the Stale Sentinel over the sijfna'ure of "P., says, in my judgment the Giand Jury is a vicious, or to say the least of it, a uieleas appendage lo our Couits, and ovgkt to tVf abulithed." Thu, roming from one, whom the Editois endorse as "one of th bet Lawyeis in the State, we ihink deserves a notice. The writer says, before the Grsud Jory "the evidence on the part of the Sta'e only is beard, and none on the part f the aceoed." I this in fact true t Ti tme, that the accused is not permitted to appear in pern before thi t-dy, but is thai any evidence that the wuligating ciiCurnUnces ere not taken into consideration? The very obligation of every Graod Jury, tells Ihe tbey shall tiiligtntlf tnquirt not on behalf of the Stile alone not on the pail ol the accuieS ah-oe ; but they are to enquire of the whule cae, in rder that they miy prnt a "True Bill. Then tb proceedings of the grand inquest aie not strictly, ex part they may perhaps be so cotisideied, so far at the personal pretence of the accused i conceined. but not ao far aa the impe-islive duty of their oath is concerned. True, the accused cannot heie-meet bis accuters "face lo face" that is deemed unnecessary, until twelve honest men, say in their bonest judgment, the accusations are wur'hy the attention ef the accused f then be can go into a court of Law and establish his innocence. Bot, aji Mr. "P., the simple finding of a Grand Juiy is "blicht and mildew on a man's character. " Thit may be the fact and I venture to say that 19 out of 20 who are indicted, are guilty of the effenee charged true, a greater number get dear before a traverse jury, tili that is but little evidence of their innocence it can be traced to the want of skill iu the Prosecuting Attorney some technical detect in the indictment ibe sophtsti j of the counsel for the defence. Sic. There are however some caes, where this body mihl be considered strictly ex part in its enquiiie for instance, where an individual has on a particular occasion, violated the Law where A., not having license so lo do, sold liquor lo B. Here the Giand Jmy is bound to find a "true bill," "for ignorance of the law, is no excuse for its violation." But if A. weie to strike B , would not the Grsnd Inquest enquire if it were done iu self drfence t lo Perjury and Larceny, would they not take into consideration all the militating circumstauces Most ceitainly they won id. and tkey do. "P." says, "the sccused should be at liberty from the first to the last step in the prosecution, to meet bis accusers in public face lo face. Tbeie are manv accusations preferied before the Grand Juty, that after a diligent inquiry into, no indictment is found. As a general thing, not on half ol the individuals, whose conduct is the subject of inquiry, are indicted ; and lbouh serious charges may be alleged agaiuit a virtuoua citizen, yet if do bill is found, the eecieey imposed upon each individual member, by virtue of their oath, keeps those charge foiever f om being made public. Hence one of Ike DtinciDal otiects of a Grand Jury, is to prevent.

. - i ne lying aiina aoora or nuuoreoa oi our new unsuspccica ana innocent citizens There is do question as lo the utility of a court of inquiry, to precede the arrest of an individual, aod hi trial In a court of law let that inquiry be made befote a Justice or before any other public tribnoal, and as much odium will then attach to the simple asioeialion, a is now to an Indictmen'. It ia natural for martkiod, to ju 'ge too severely of their fellows when accused of crime the duk side of the pictuia is mostly discussed. The system of Grand Junes as incident to courts ot jus tice il of temote antianity ai old as the precedents cf the ; common law. It baa always operated well been engraltrd into every State constitution of thi Union is an appendage of our courts, which io itself, when not abused, has met the nnivei sal aoDrobation f all. We cannot therefore see the ' least abadow of a lesson in Mr. P.'s" article, why tb Grand Jury should be abolished j and ice or inclined to think Mr. "P. would oevet bave wiitten the article, had he been familiar with section 5th of ihe amendments to the coDsittuiion of ihe Unitod States, which says, "No person shall be held to answer for a capital or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment by a Grand Jury," ftc. KT. The Monet Kixo Xathan Miytr Rothschild ondoubtedly while livinsr, waa more courted than any King in the world, lie was literally the King of Kings fcr ho held the mews of wir and peace in hin hauda, and could bear up a despot when even hie people were against hitn. Air. Rothschild resided in London where by the mere power of money he waa feted and caressed by the must refined and exclusive aristocracy in the world. He was descended from an abhorred race the Jews who could not sit even in the House of Commons. . Yet Princes and Dukes eagerly sought to attend the banquets of the Hebrew simply because he wn rich. IVIr. Francis, in his recent history of the Bank of England, makes the following understandable re-1 marks. The personal appearance of Rothschild was ! very repulsive, and thus he was worshipped for his mere wealth. Even his mental endowments were obscured by bis overwhelming passion for money. He says : "The language which Mr. Rothschild could use when bis anger overbalanced his discretion, was a license allowed to his wealth; and he who, when placet1 in a position which almost compelled him to Bubjcribe to a pressing charity, could exclaim, 'Here, write a check I have made one fool of myself 1 was courted and caressed by the clergy, wss feted and followed by the poor, was treated as an equal by the j first minister of the crown, and more than worshipped by those whos names stood foremost on the roll of a commercial aristocracy. His mode of dictating letters was characteristic of a mind entirely absorbed in money-making; and his ravings, when he fooml a bill unexpectedly protested, were translated into mercantile language before they were fit to meet a correspondent's eye." Cascsj Bslm" ! Mr. Clingman of N. Carolina, in Lis late speech on disunion, seriously rehearses the following anecdote, told him by tome wag of a Sen tor: "I was surprised last winter to hear a Northern Senator say, that in the town in which he lived, it would excite great astonishment if it were known that a northern lady would, at the time of the meeting of the two houses, walk arm in arm up to the Capitol with a Southern Senator; that they had been taught to consider southerners generally as being so coarse and ruffianly in manner, that a lady would not trust herself in such a presence. This anecdote, sir, does not present too strong a picture of the condition of sentiment in portions of the interior of the northern country. If Mr.Clingman really beliere the story, we do not wonder that he declares for disunion ! Such a predicament of tilings would constitute a "casus l'HC anywhere out of Kamscalka! But we can assure Mr. C. that matters have not yet com to such pass in this locality. Ladies hereabouts might be found, who would, in broad day-light, be "nothing loth" to walk arm in arm, with a southern rrptesenttitite even, especially if ho were good looking not to the INational (Japilnl merely, but to the very altar of Hymen! TVy aint afraid not they. Si the Union need not be dissolved for this cause. Au gut la Me. Age. Ciiürch Notice A Rebuke Admisistihed. We learn from the New York Literary. World, that the Christian Enquirer, an ably conducted religious newspaper in New York, has raised its voice sgainst the now prevalent habit of advertising religious ser. vices, the topics if discourse, the names of the preachers, and the reporting of the sermons in the newspapers. The Literary World says that 'a single number of a daily N. Y. paper before us has eighteen of thee announcements, which put in anything but an agreeable light, the varieties of sectarian doctrine, and the modest worth of the several incukafors thereof. Probably, however, in many cases, the preachers announced, have nothing to do with these theatrical star announcements. They are the efforts of lay memberi to attract a congregation to a half filled building, a mistaken way of complimenting their own vanity and a pet preacher, cVe. Generally speaking, too, these religious notices are of thf least .important services. Clergymen of due flf-respect, arr, and must be opposed to them. Carry these displays a step further, and large Icllered van will be seen moving along Broadway, the rivalj of Mitchell, JJurton and Canium."

an J Georgia iiied the first ciy of disolutinu, and thrau ;ned lo ere)e fiom the coufederaev antra it cranted ptrpelint) in tht foreign face trade. Tim internal ciy, prompted by ararice that did not dread to tiade in tern and blood, in agony and degradation, wis (tilled for a time by the compromise which yielded the trade for twentv yearn. This cy wae riive'1 next in M.tarhtt, by rnall paity of apiranta to ari.t cracy, enis'ing paitly of teiumej Bnlih refugees, of ignorant and puie-prud meichaiits, of fanatical clergymen who weie terrified by the alup:d itv lutinnary exres uf a few Fiench Atheists, and of warm-hraited and weak-hen ted lawyers, bewildered by the lloztnnah ff English wi iters to English mooaicby anJ aiitocraey.' It waa iai-ed at the ame lime in Connecticut, by a few jgcioue, far-sighted, yet narrow-minded Uyei,and a few veiy lesrned, yet pnfundly igmiisnt college pedants, who up putrd that disMilution would elevtte themselves t (he hereditary governing ela uf New England. It wa next raided in Massachusetts by the fame peison and their sgeiit. and produced the suicidal opposition tu the war uf ISI'2, which pievented ibe cooqaetl of the Bii'Kh provinces, anl the anicidal Hartford Convention which politically alew it projectors The cry was next tailed by a party of politic I coxcombs in South Caialins, egtinst all attempt to raise the tariff of 1316, and wn tepeated from ISIS, till it produced the NullrfitalionotznUj tebukd;by Mr. Webster in 1S29, nd the rebellion ao irnorninoulj- suppressed by PiiJent Jackson in IS32. Il ji next tailed by atave trtdcia and tiadirjg politicians at the Sau'b, egiintl the alniriion of .Mi-uii to the Uni u wiih free cunatitutioii. It waa next raided by a few crxy or brainless fanatic in Massachusetts, who would summon all Ibe powers of earth and hell sgaint the single crime of slareiy, and let looe all the plagues of Eypt and all the ills of Pand-na' Box for its suppicssioo. It was next raied by the slave tiader and trading politicians of the South against petitions to anett Ibe slave trade in the Federal metropolis. And is now ra.sed by tUve traders and trading polinciins at the South, for the extension of slavery t all the territory acquired from Mexico. Thus we perceive tint all these cries, with i tingle exception, Im ve originated in avarice and ambition, and with two exceptions, have bean raised at the Sou t It. And wa may also perceive that the cry, whether Northern or Southern, has always been raised by a contemptible minority. It was a contemptibly minority of the South in 1757 It was a. contemptible minority ol New England in 1793 and 1312. It was a contemptible minority ol the South from 1318 to 1333. And they are a contemptible minority in both North and South who have raised thia cry since 1833, and ere raising it now. And why do they raise it now i The Northern fanatics, conscientious against the ein of slavery, are crazed and bewildered by insane projects lor its extermination, which, practically applied, would produce mischiefs tea fold greater. And tho'Southern incendiaries are crazed by avarice and lust ol domination, to gratify which they would deluge, the Continent in blood, and consign it to worse than Russian barbarism. The lanaiics wage a war ol vituperation and calumny in obacure weekly journal and occasional conventions. The incendiaries wage a war of insolent defiance, of arrogant pretension, n treasonable threats, of treacherous combination, of corrupting traffic, of factious and disorderly obstruction to bueiness, in the halls of the Federal Legislature. Shall these contemptible minorities rule the people of the United States with a rod of iron, through a criminal threat of destroying the glorious work that woe founded in the toils and sufferings and agonies and tears and blood ol the Revolution, and has since been sustained and nur tured by the wisdom and patriotism of millions? Let . f at aj .a 11' i it in regardless ol cotton spinners or cotton brokers or aplrani to the Presidency, say that slavery io the States hall not be touched by lanatirs or politicians; that sitvery shall not extend over another inch of territory ; and and that another stave Stale shall not enter the LTiiion. And let the whole people of the slave States who are not slaveholders a twenty-four to one, and who are equally interested with the people of the free State in arresting the march of slavery, respond to these declarations with the unanimous Ami. And if th non-slaveholders, the overwhelming majority of the slave Slate, shall not b wise enough lo join in these demand, let Ihe people of the free States make them atone. They are an overwhelming majority, and if united in Congress as the slaveholders have hitherto been, can save the Union .Irom this perpetual disturbance. If bwth unite, the fanatics of the North and the incendiaries of the South are silenced forever. If ihe free States unite and achieve these vie lories alone, the Northern fanatics will be silenced imrne dtately, and the Southern incendiaries will be silenced by the great majority of the Sr-uth, at their very first step towards dissolution. Pa. Ledger. Ladt Franklin. If ever a man, says the Baltimore American, was nndu illustrious by the devotion of a wife. Sir John Franklin may claim thit distinction. We have seen, as doubtless our readers have seen also, several letters from Lady Franklin, called forth by the perilous and almost desperate condition in which her husband was supposed to be, in his adventurous expedition towards the North Fole and all those letters have indicated so strong a feeling of conjugal trfFection, with so much of feminine propriety, that however elrongly our interests may hare been enlisted for the bold and daring man, we are free to confess that our sympathies have rather cl-ared to ihe true-hearted woman. She has become the prominent peronage. (7 On Sterne's entering a coffee room at York a Mr. A. staring him full in the face, said, ' He hatcJ a parson.'

The London Examiner Las published a very elaborate disunion of the length to which a lawyer can po in defence of a murderer. i knowing him to bo guilly, growing nut of the cases of the Mannings fir the murder of Lord U Conner,", of Courvoisier for the murder of Lord Win. Rasuel, Counsellor Fhillipe, the priuctpal lawyer implicated, ' hiving mode a denial of the charges brought sjainst him some years ago by the Examiner. The controversy involves these questions: 1. Is a lawyer bound to surrender his brief tnd abandon hig client when he has made a full confession of the murder! Mr. Charles Phillips, backed by two of the Judges, Baron Parke and Chief Justice Ttndall, say no! 2. Can a lawyer, knowing Ina client tu be a murderer, defend him to that extent as would implicate innocent parties in the murder, in order to procure the acquittal of the guilty 1 Lord Brougham defends this detestable doctrine. 3. Can a lawyer urge bis own opinions, apart from the testimony, against a person charged with murder, as waa done by Mr. Sergeant Wilkins in the cae or Mrs. Manning! Aod can he blacken a witness to secure the escape of his client 1 Without entering into the meritrof ihe controversy of the Examiner witli Counsellor Phillips, these propositions may be profitably considered on their merits. How the English Judges can maintain tho negative of the first proposition is most perplexing, as it is a Ion; fettled legal maxim that all criminals are presumed to be innocent until proved guilty; and is not confession of guilt equivalent to proof 1 If a murderer confesses his guilt to his lawyer, how can that lawyer defeud him nn the presumption of his innocence! It is wicked preposterous horrible. Is it not "a lie" when a lawyer knows a fact-to argue on the presumption that he bai no such knowledge. and enter into vehement argument against such fact! The second proposition is two generally acted on in our courts, yet it is an infamous practice, revolting to hu-nanity, subversive of justice, and pro puctivo of infinite mischief; yet desperation too often tempts the champion of a bad cause to dastardly aud cruel expedients. There ought to be a moral standard in the pleadings of lawyers that would bar out all such t- rrible results. A witness namnl "Stnh Manse!, one of the domestics of Lord Wm. Rus11 wns driven to a mad-house a raving mnniic by this infamous practice of blaekening a witness' by insinuations of guilt, in order to screen the teal culprit from the penalty of the law. All these questions poeess immeasurable importance, as tending to form a standard of morals in tho pleadings of the Bir, tor. merly so little regarded at to menace the downfall of Justiee, bit recently vo much improved as to promise that Truth will ultimately become the Folar star of the ministen and agent of the law, and th&t justico will be done even to murderers without prejudice or cruelty.

Take, for instance, the wording of the indictment in Prof. Webster's caee. It contains four coiit-t, the first of which alleges that the killing was effected by a stab with a knife, which the murderer held 111 his rinhl hand, and with which he inflicted a ftab on the I If ft breast tme inch in length and three inches in depth. Ihe second sirs that the mortal wound was innicted on the head, with a hammer, which the slayer held in WA hands. Tho third makes out that the manner of the murder was sn immense number of blows and kick, inflicted wti the head, breast, back, belly, sides and other parts ot (lie body, which struck the !ain man to the floor, where he received msny other blows, kicks, strokes, wounds, and bruises, so that he tistaidly died. And the fourth has it in general terms with means, weopons and instruments unknown. The indictment asserts at least three distinct lies, for Dr. Perkutan rould not have been killed more than once, whilo the indictment k:!!s him four times. And by what evidence does it 6ay Professor Webster killed Dr. P. with a knife held in the right hand? How was it ascertained thnt he died inslanl'y, when it is still a matter nf doubt if he be dead at all and still more a doubt if rVfeeBor Wcbeter killed him ! Is it not a disgrace to the common sene of the age, that such nonsense is tolerated in theatatuto book. Xew mr . .. !
