You know that his ever watchful eye ‘was the first to detect the island dnd his feet to press its soil. And then, vverwhelmed by a convulsion of feeling fell down and kissed the .eafth and thanked God for his prosperity. What a strange mixture of pride and compassion must have taken possession of his noble soul, when he beheld the new world; looming up before him in all its native pride, groaning under its weight of forest and teeming with animal life, while his Hardy seamen, ‘proud of -his success, begged his forgiveness for their mutinous conduct. B —

And here for the first time, stood the tediand white man, face to face; mutuwlly lost in wonder and astonishment, witlout being able to comprebénd the origin, character or language of edach .other, and when the cannon wgre' fired, fromh the ships; the natives supposed them to be great animals, with eyes of fire and voizes of thunder. : : At this time the continent was pop. ulated with savages. . They were 4 powerful people, and subsisted by hunting and fishing. They bad none of the ‘Arts and Sciences, but were a fearless, warlike set of barbariais, jealous of their rights, and happy in their ignorance; and in their ignorance, strehgth ‘and jealousy it were incendiary to have introduced the torch of eivilization, liefore which their barbarism and idolatry must have vanished away forever, which them was more sacred than life. i’or Heathenism is as adverse to civilization as. civilization is to Heathenism.

they are antagonistical and cannot exist together without one or the other becomirg absorbed or extinet. Thus vothing can strike the judgement with a more forcible conviction than while these barbarians existed in theirstrength they would oppose with the whole foree of jtheir power tlie introduction of civ< ilization, for they were cqually as jeal ous of their liberties ag we are of ours. Suppose then, that a swarm of: barbarian warriors, surrounded by all the paraphernalia of war, should sweep down upon us for the purpose of introducing their heathenism and idolatry, and blotting out the dun of” ourecivilization would we, could we, tamely éul{mit, or would we no% rather oppose them to a bloody issue. Yes, yes! ‘ read it in the American gpirit, I read it in all the American - history.. There would be neither sleep fo thé eye nor rest to the sword in its scabbard until the encmy was vanquished, or the American soil had drank up every drop of the American blood. =~ = ° - So the fact would appear to be established beyond all Colnm‘os'ofs}' that bebefore the civilized race could be introduced upon the continent it must- be cvacuated by the savages.. Now, what are the facts? At the time of the discovérypf this_country they were millions strong, and in the space,of be-

tween three and four hundred years, they number but a few thousand. Why this falling off 7 Why this decrease of millions ? Whereas there should have been an increase of millions! It is unaccountable, unparalleled in. the history of any people, of any country, in any age.. It challenges not only uhe voiee of history for its parallel, but of science for its solution. T know of no key to this mystery, but in the councils of the Trinity, and” we may imagine that Mercy knelt before the altar with a face all aglow with heavenly radianee, and a voice all melody as if touched by the music of many harps, and said: “Father, the red man is full of Strife, bickerings and contengions—he has departed from the way.s'f; of rectitude and of right—Le fails to cultivate the soil you have giv'en himavd call forth the resources of -the earth, but ke roams through ‘the forest a sayage cannibal, outraging justice and humanity, and his hands are reeking, with- the: blood of his slain—he knows mot what he does; forgive and. transplant him to ‘thoc'_vsé;_"fgir‘er climes,. and by the lessons he has,llgut_'ngd ijdxb: the experience of his owti wrongs, I ‘will guide and direct: his feet, into the. paths of virtue and of right; then he will no longer retard the onward march of civilization, but be su_percejéﬂe@byv an enlightened . people who will make. the wilderness to bloom and blossom as-d rose, and rear the proud temple of reJigious and avil liberty.” J ustice, said. “it is right” and it was done, for it ia 1o less true than strange that the savage.

! necessary that the savages sho'd beg % : }..ex_iinpﬁ; or rendered. powerless, but there must be an intelligent class ‘of people siteadibed; Who Hate!all Dpgßossiodo~ ‘Who ate they? and where shall we find them? Leak back, back if _you please, over two bundred years ‘in the history of England and you will find a little band of excellent people called Puritans' who seperated themselves from the great Church of England, and were sowewhat peculiar in their religious opinions, and on this account were looked upon as revolutionists, and were subjected to the most tearful persecutions until they were driven from their own eonntry to Amsterdam in Holland, but they had no rest there; for they liad not yet reached the point which. ‘destiny hed assigned them in laying the plans for American liberty; but were again overtaken by the flames of perse~ cution, dobling and redoubling in its ;fury,' until they were driven to seck.a home in the wilds of the Western Continent. ~After bidding adien to the friends of their native land, {hey took passage on board of the Mayflower, a little bark ‘equipped for the purpose, Hooking like a thing of life as she sail!ed modestly forth upon the waters bearing the germs of-liberty—at one time skimming gracefully upon the even surface, at another leaping and diving like a frantic sca monster, uutil she struck sounding under the shadows—shall I say,of the rock of Gibralter? No, ‘no! for there their ears might agzain ‘have been saluted by ‘the roars of the British Lion——nbo, it was u.n(vler}tlie rock of Plymouth alt blazing in glory, where the young eagle mounts into the air ‘sweeping the hedvens in broad circles, or poises quivering upon his pinions o’er the top: of the mountain, where the thunders burst and the lightnings ‘wre'ath“e as a garland hLis burnished throne, and there all flashing in bis armor of resplendent beauty, fixed hus unblenching eye upon the sun, while he lifts his clraion voice in screams of liberty, tIBERTY, LIBERTY! The | valleys echo liberty,and the granite hills answer liberty, while the re-echo is carried rway upon the sullen wavesof the ocean, liberty, LIBERTY, LIBERTY'! The mermaid ‘chants it in’ her coral chambers; it thundersin the-cutaract; sighs'in the wind, whispers in the zephyr, and trembles in the dewédrop. All} all'is liberty~—tis writte_n’ in bufnine capitals upon evety page of Ametican history—and"th¢ tree of liberty planted in the mdst of the great galaxy of States has shot its branches high into the heavens, and millions of hardy freemen- recline under its aniple boughs, and while they drink of the cool waters which gush from its base, tegale themselves upon' its ‘ambrosial fruit which is for the healing of the Nations. But I must not close, without paying a tribute of respect to the memory of a 'character Iso much admire as Patrick Henry; for of all the glory that crowns the head of a victor, that of the traly great Orator is the most splendid often winning more victories by the touch of his magie wand than is achiéved /by the militady chieftain with his hosts of Warfi{)ns;— The laurels of the Orator look gorgeous and pure in thelr varigated tints of ibeaggity—i—thOSC of the jwéi'r"io}‘lajx"e scen reeking in blood and tears—the emblems of mortal agony.

This question will, in all probability be propounded to Congress at its next session. Among the latest advices from Salt Lake Vulley is the statement that.the Mormons are niow anxious for an early adwission into the Union, in order, to- use the popular sovereignty phraseology, that they may be ‘perfectly'free to regulate their institutions in, ‘their ‘lown way,’ subject only to’ the will of ‘Brigham Young and the elders. Gov, Cumming and his federal associates, with the exception of Judge Eecles, have been as tender in their treatment of the “peculiar institution™ ‘as they possibly could be; yet this does ‘not satisfy the oriental jealousy of the reverend polygamists, nor their craving for supreme poweriover their deluded followers. Theéy want the coast entirely ‘elear of prying, interfering Gentiles, and the readiest way to banish them is ‘toagsume the dignity and sovereignty of a State. Governor Cumming; how‘ever, takes so kindly to the Mormons, ‘that we should not be much surprised to see him'a Saint in full communion, bofore his term of office expires. = 1 : . The ludicrous aspects of his Mormon question aré those which strike the public’ mind now that peace has been officially proclaimed, but it becomes extremrely ‘grave when ‘Utah asks tbfch admitted, to. all the honers of ' 'a State | just.on the heels of a scarcely guietéd rebellion, and the Administration seems to favor the project. The Washington Union. argues ingeniously to prove that no power is given in the federal constiv¥ tution to interfere ‘with polygamy, or rather that, under the constitution, the Mormons have as complete control of that abominatian as we Rave over christian marriage. Nolaw can tonch them on that point says the Uniott' but éne enacted by their own Legisla*ure, so that. legally and constitutionally, according to Democratic interpretation, polygamy. rests. o ‘as ‘secure a foundation as the -most sacred of ottt Republican institutions. ©We must expeet- before' many: months to see these views generally accepted by the Democratic party, and the admission of Utah into the Umion urged as a. party measure. The Mormons go in for Slavery ‘as well -as for polygamy, and' the merit of sustaining the former. imstitution’ will, in Demoeraticiestimation, be ample saving grace for the abominations of the latter.— 'Mr Douglasfit is true, once used very' severe l’an‘g,f{wge ‘against the Mortions, but he has beetifor a long time gilent on the subjeet any remaining prejudices. ‘he may entertain in relation to polygawmy would doubtiess yield to the exigencies of party or a decision of the Skprerie gotil !v ¢ e e S DS ~Meantime, what do the people say to embracing the Mormons in: the bonds of State fellowship?— Chicago Press and Tebune, = . ) R
