Amongst the rich peasants there are some very handI

some

countenances, and not bad figures. They were the proper French'corset, and exceedingly well-fitting gowns, with sleeves as well plated down, and flounces as numerous as our own. Their hair is neatly plaited, tucked behind their ears, and thrown over their heads I they wear an extremely linp embroidered tulle vatl, I which haa a pretty graceful effect. Yesterday we walked behind three of these young peasants their I waists wore as well laced in, their bustles aa large, I irieir skins as full, and stiffly stretched, and their erabroidered muslin canetons as fine as those of the ladies I arouni'them and as tbejr waiIced along, fanning themI selves and conversing gaily, they really made BO desnicajUe appearance. In deed iherich people, of all ages nrtygrent regard to the fashions. The other day. our landlady, Carlotts, was showing us her silk weddinfljress. and remarking that she had bought Bome bracte, more than required she added, that it was vsry conve nient, for "when I was married, flounces were in {asnI ion, and then bias tucks, and then flounces again, and this was a hard working woman, who washes our clothes, manages a large family of children, and bakes her own bread, though her husband is a road contractor, and proprietor of a nice bit of lnnd in valley and on mountain. The U^H* class of male peasants are in general better looking than the women we have seen several remarkably fine countenances On ordinnry days they wear caps of round corduroy, and dork velveteen jackets but on feasts there is a great turn-out of broad-cloth and blnck hats ihe cigar is always in use Most of them can read and writ they are men of excellent industrious habits, and possess considerable wealth. _i

The poorer peasants, who live by daily labour, seldom, when at wotk, wear more than a chemise and a pair ofshort linen drawers their naked legs and leet are dark brown, and their features coarse. They are extrrtnely industrious, making their boye work as soon as they can carry a burden, and cultivating every litlie nook or corner near the eoltage. All classes are kind and charitable, psltently supporting their own I poverty, and maintaining their destitute relations,witnI out a murmer, even adopting, and rearing amongst their 5 own children, friendlessorplians, without any prospect of compensation. The honesty and morality of the liucchese peasantry art well known, and even the bad example t-f the profligate couriers, ami had chiujJCfera that yearly swarm to tl«e baths, have n«t fier"Tna:enally injured their good qualities. Eithe alone, or attendecfby country boy, a lady can at all times take the most distant rambles, on horsebnek and on foot, without fear of receiving an uncivil word. v\ hen thefts ate commiited, th^ culpret is always found to «o a person from a distance, attracted here by the confluence of rich strangers.

The work which they perform, considering their very inefficient menns, is surprising. A* new road, With a high embankment and retaining walls, is now making along the Lima, on the .Modena road, and a bridge building across tlio Camajoni to connect it. All the earth which forms the embankment, and the smaller stones arc brought up from the bead of tho river, in litI tie round baskets, on the shoulders of boys from eleven 1 to fourteen years old. The large stones arc carried one by one on the shoulders of the men. We tried to ex* plain to the Director, who superintends the work. the. advantnges of wheel-barrow a'id hand-barrow, but he elwok his head and said that "iheir own way was the beat." Tho work is really making considerable pro1 eress, but A hundred and fifty men at* employed, for I five or six montha, doing what fiftv Lnghah laborers wiih their appliances, would accomplish in two.

They begin to work before five in tho morning, and rrst an hour at nine, at noon, and four o'clock, then enntinne to work till past seven. In place of resting during the houraff relaxation, most of them danceand sing in chorus during the whole time, huxzning, and making an incredible noise. The other day they pro

And yet these men had been working all dav in the sun. when the thermometer stood in the sbaSe at 78*' of Fahrenheit.

The project for introducing the manufacture of Beet sugar into the United States is one which haa received much public as well as private attention. Government and People have united in their efforts and worked zealously to bring it about but apparently without the least success. How is ihisf must wc admit that we are inferior to the French in anything whatever? thia wiH not be allowed. There is another sopposi'jon which if correct will account ior our failure, perhaps their beets are better than ours- French writers tell os of obtaining 4, 5, and even 6 per cent, of Sugar from the roots, but these results are 4, 5, and even 6 timet better than any whictj I have been able to obtain. In short the whole business of making Sugar from corn contrasts so favorably with the manufacture from Beets that I cannot but think it will obtain the preference wherever the climate will bring the former plant to perfection. Some of the differences may Weenumerated as follows1.1st, tbe corn is clean and agree* able to work with, while the Beet is not. 2d, £he4|nachinery for extracting thejuice from Beets is not only more costly, but is more liable to get out of repair.— 3d, the Beet juice contains a much greater portion of foreign and injurious matter, decomposition commences almost immediately after it is pressed out, and if allowed to go on to any extent will entirely defeat the making of Sugar. 4tn, the proportion of saccharine matter contained in equal quantities of corn and beet juice is as 3 to 4 in favor of fhe former, therefore MH| same difference will be found in the amount of fuel necessary in evaporation. 5th. Beet sugar when obtained is inferior in quality and loses a larger per cent, jn refining. 6tb, Com is a native of our country, perfectly suited to our climate, a true Amwicin, and is in fact the finest plant in the world the author of 'Arator' (Col. Taylor of Virginia) called it our 'meal, meat, and manure.' We now add Sugar to the list ®r its valuable productions.

We only need a full devolopement of the resources of our own country to render us perfectly independent of every other. Respectively youra,^

From the New Gennestte Farmer. ROTATION OHF CROPS.

This is a subject of great interest to tho Farmer: and yet few points in Agriculture are less understood. The importance of the systematic rotation in crops is nowhere set forth in briefer or clearer# terms, than in one of the Agricultural lectures of Dr. Daubenev, Profescor of Rural Economy in the University of Oxiordi (By the bye, why are our American Coll^gfts so tute of instruction in that branch of knowledge!) Annexed is an extract from that discourse an extract which, if properly appreciated by our -farming leaders, will alone be worth more than the cost of the New Gennessee Farmer for an ordinary life-time. Read it, my friend- reflect on it—and guide yoitr operations by the important principles which it developes:

Those plants ought to succeed esch other which contain different chemical ingredients," say* tbe in el

ent Professor, "so that the quantities of each which esoil at r—

the soil at any time contains may be absoibed.in Thus a productive crop of com cottW not be obtained without tne.phosphates of litoe and tWS"

equal ratio. be obtained neiriji. wjiich arO|Kfflent

It would be injudicious, therefore, to sow any ^plant

that required much of any of the above ingredients, immediately after having diminished the amount of them present in the soil by a crop of wheat or any other kind of corn. But on the other hand, leguminous plants, such as beans, are well calculated to succeed to crops of corn, because they contain no free alkalis, and less than one per cent, of the phosphatra. 1 hey thrive, therefore, even where these ingredients have been withdrawn, and during their growth afford time for the ground to obtain a fresh supply of them by a further disintegration of the suhjaceot rock. For the same reason, wheat and tobacco may sometimes be reared in succession in a soil rich in potass, because the latter plant requires none of those phosphoric salts are present in wheat. In oraer, however, to proceed upon data, it would be requisite that an analysis ol the plants most useful to man should be accomplished in the different stages of their growth, a labor which has hitherto been only partially undertaken. It is a curious fact that the same plant differs in constitution when grown in different climates. Thus, in the beet root, nitre takes the place of sugar when thirfplant is cultivated in the warmer parts of France. The explanation of this difference is probably as follows: Beet root contains, as an essential ingredient, not only saccharine matter but also nitrogen and it ia probable that the f\ wo are naturally so connected together in the vegetable tissue that the one cannot exist without the other.

The nitrogen being derived from the decomposition of ammonia, must be affected by any cause which diminishes the supply of the latter arm in proportion as this ingredient is wanting, the secretion of sugar will likewise fall off. Now it has been shown by Liebig that the formation of nitric acid is owing to the deeomposition of ammonia, and it is conccived by him that tha laat products of the decomposition of animal bodies present themselves in the form of ammonia in cold climates, and in that of nitric acid in warm ones. Hence in proportion to the amount of nitric acid formed, and of nitre absorbed by the plant, that of the nitrogen, and consequently that of the saccharine matter present in it may be diminished

An important discovery Agriculture. In tbe Phalange, a French paper, published at P»ris, September 8, a novel discovery is described, which, if true, will work a great change in an important department of agricultural labor- We give it to ouragricul. tural friends, who best know how to estimate it. It is communicated to the Paris print, by Charles Poulard and M. Bernard, who date their letter a*. Brest, August, 1841. It appears that while they and some of their friends, who farm their own estates, were engaged in conversation on the subject of agriculture, it was observed by one of them, that that branch of industry was suffering more for the want of capita, and enterprise, than any other, and that nothing was to be done without manuie, which was every day becoming tnore scarce and expensive. This remark led to an inquiry into tha properties of manure, and particularly as to what ptovision nature had made in those uncultivated regions, where there seems to be a vigorous and luxurtona growth, without artificial assistance.

4,In

observing nature unassisted, unthwarteo. rattier, by the hand ol men. in vegetable reproduction, i: ia found that when the seed is ripe it falls upon the ground, and then tbe plant which has produced it sheds i» leaves, or fall* itself upon it, in decay, and covers and protects it from the weather, until generation has .» Li- i-

commenced, and the young plant is able to grow op in health and strength, and fall developement, to recommence tbe same routine of seeding and reproduction. '•From this it follows that, iri nature, every plant prod acta its own soil or k*mu*. and that the earth only aarvea to bear the plant, and not to aid or nourish it in

of Beet Sugar, would, I am confident produce white Sugar at one operation. From what is known on the subject, I fully believe that an acre of good ground treated as above described, will yield at least 1000 pounds of Sugar—probably more. The value of tbe fodder taken from the stalks themselves after pjBsing through the mill, will be more than an equivalent for the whole expense of cultivation and keeping the ground up. The fodder produced in this way is much superior to that uanaily made, from its containing a greater quantity of saccharine matter.

^^l^wTdariag thewtow. tat he great mjatry of

proionged, and several time* repeated, have prevented vegetation on the common plan from flourishing healthy progress, while our little spots of wheat have hardly felt the inconvenience of excessive dryness, tor the earth, protected by the straw, has never been deprived entirely of moisture, and our blades ol corn were flourishing, when all around was drooping and uncertain. To conclude, then, we have thoroughly succeeded in our practical experiment, and the wheat produced Is of the finest quality. The straw was more than six feet high, and in tbe ears were* 50, SO and even 80 {trains of wheat, of foil development, the admiration of all who saw tiiem. The cause of their success, they think, may be explained in the following manner: "Straw being-a bad conductor ol heat, and a good Conductor of electricity, maintains the root of the plant in a medium temperature, and prevents the earth from being deprived entirely of moiaiure. The moisture ot the earth, or the substratum, being continual, facilitates Jho gradual and constant absorption of carbonic acid gas from the surrounding atmosphere, and hydrogen Ind carbon, the chief elements of nourishment to vegetables, are thus economised iti regular supplies, where ^hey are constantly required, ana pass into combination with oxygen, from the roots up to the stems and branches ot the plantain whrch they are assimilated, ,and the oxygen throws off in exhalation from tlie leaves. The 6traw decays but slowly, and thus lur'nishes its substance by degrees to the young plant, in due progression and proportion, (such as the siuquous ^ingredients, for instance, of the pod or capsule,) so that decomposition of tho straw corresponds to the four phases of fermentation in progressing the saccharine to the alcoholic, the acid and the putrid states, analagous to those ot infancy, budding'youth, and seeding of the *jp!ant. "We observe that cur blades of wheat have but a very few roots, and those arc short and hard, something .like a bird's claw and this agrees with the remarks of ftlons. Rasp&i!, wh«j states that the most healthy plants Jin ordinarv vegetation, have the least exuberance ol ?foots and fibres. a "Another important observation, also, is, that weeds lind parasitical vegetation arc prevented by this method, for the straw chokoi every other plant but that of its own seed. Many other interesting observations might be made on these experiments, but we refrain at present from obtruding on your readers: but if any of them wish for further information on the subject, we shall willingly afford them every facility. The importance of ilia general result will easily become apparent without further comment, and a revolution in the present modes of agricultural labor, is a necessary consequence of this discovery. No tillage will now be re•quired, nor any artificial stimulants in manure, and other more or less expensive combinations with regard to toil and culture. In fact, it would ba tedious to enumerate the various advantages that may result in practice from this casual experiment, ind therefore, we proclaim it simply to the world, that all may profit bv it."

As this experiment can be easily tried, we hope some of our farmers will put it to ihe teat, and communicate ^the result. We shall certninly try it on a small seven by nine lot of ground, which is the largest that is vouchsafed to a dweller in the city.

It always gives us great pleasure to record any facts which go to show the great advantage to bo derived from properly (jultivating land There is no truth in ^American agriculture, we think, more certain, than Uhat as a whole we cultivate too much land for either alio improvement of our soils, or the prosperity of our 'pockets. On this point there is a marked difference itetween the best farmers nbroad, and those of our own country.

The United States have the finest soils in the worlw by good husbandry they can be made the most productive but this will not be until the farmer ceases to desire the possession of all the land that adjoins him. There has been an article going the rounds of the papery written by a Connecticut farmer, stating the productions and expenses of two farms of 25 ond 100 acres, the first well cultivated, and the last in tbe ordinary manner and the result ts what any one might anticipate, viz: a decided advantage in ihe summing up, in favor of the farm of 2.') acres- Every well cultivated farmer's garden, is an annual proof that he woultL derive greater profit from a smaller larm, lully improved, than from a large one gone over in the common mode. The immense product that may be drawn from a small quantity of thoroughly tilled land is as yet scarcely inown in this country. Instances, however, are occasionally given that show what might be done, were more correct opinions and a better practice, on this subject, to prevail. As a case in point, we abridge from the Ithaca Journal an accputit of the varieties of articles cultivated in a garden of that place:

The piece of ground wns 100 by 200 feet, but a large part of it, (or 5,000 feet of the 20,000,) is occupied By buildings, yards, &c On the remainder is_grown strawberry, many varietics.and in abundance raspber ries. 4 kinds gooseberries, 12 or 14 kinds currents, 3 varieties' filberts, 4 kinds 2 early apple trees 8 psar trees 4 kinda 8 cherrv trees. 4 kinds 2 apricots 5 plum' trees, best kinds 10 peach trees 4 quince trees 14 erapevinv 2 asparagus beds with rhubarb. s:'a kale, and a variety ol sweet and medicinal p.ants.--

area dozen varieties of roses, lilaes, altneas. aimonos.

is room for many more. In the vegetable department was grown lettuces, radishes, cress, parsnips, enrro s, vegetable oys:er». beets, onions, summer squasaos, eucumberB. musk and watermelons, egg plant, ocre,cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, tic.

This is what wc call occupying the whole ground and in this case there was donbiless much pleasure as well as profit derived from this small 'piece of land There is no surer way to keep up kind feelings among neighbors than an cxchatigaof the thousand civilities such gardens enable the proprietor to bestow and of this one may he certain, tbe children who are accustomed to tlie enjoyment of fruit nnd flowers at home. to their cultivation and protection, are never a pest in the gardens ol their neighbors, never wealing or plundering the choicest fruits, never destroying or mutilating the most valuable flowers.

In every point of view, then, the thoroueh cultivator is a gainer in h's comforts, in his pleasure*, and in his profits. ihos* who covet large farms.Jhmk of these bines: let them examine facis and decide accordingly.

MAKT.W FRCIT TREKS.—When yon wish to procure voung trees of a particular kind of fruit foraransplanting, dig around tlie old tree until you come to a healthy. erowing root, which cut off, and tarn the end of the detachea port ion out ot the ground- It will produce shoots tue first season, and In a faw years Jiear fruit of the same kind as the parent tree.

SWEKT POTATOES—L. M. Garrett's plan of keeping sweet potatoes, I doubt not. is good. Thev need no We at the top, through which to breathe- Thev are mtives of a southern climnte. require a dry bed and a good warm cover, to keep tham safe during our winters. 1 put them into a dry cellar the day on which thely are dug, and cover them head and heals, with about three feet of dry earth. Sand I suppose would be tho nest. It is important to dig before a frerxe. I got the above information from the Tennessee Farmer. "Do as you would be done unto," is a good rule—wish every body knew it by heart, and never violated it.

REXOVATIO* or mu PEACH TREE.—Theeditor of the New England Farmer says, that a gentleman residing in Cambridge, informs *.im that charcoal placed around the roots of the diseased stock, was scrvicable. He immediately removed ihe soil from around the trunk of a sickly tree in his garden, supplied its place with charcoal, and was surprised at its sudden renovation, and subsequent rapidity of its growth, and the tenacity with which the fruit hold on to tho branches, and the unusual richness of its flavor when matured.

FrrntNO GEESE WITH TcRNirs.— An experiment has lately been tried of feeding geese with turnips, cut up fiueaud put in a trough with water. The rfltot was that six geese, weighing only nine pounds each, wlmn shut up, actually weighed twenty [twelve?] pouirJ~ each, afier three weeks feeding with this food alone.

CANKER WORMS.—J. M. Gourgas, Esq., of Weston, assures us that he lias destroyed every cankerworm that infested his trees by keeping his land in tillago where that was practicable, and by placing tan-bark or other looso matter about hia trees which aro scattered in his pastures. He feels confident that every farmer may entirely root out this peat by following a like course. There can be no doubt that frequent stirring of the earth about trees in the fall will haven tendency to disturb and destroy grubB which usually harbor there during tvinter and, ifhognor hent* should be induced to frequent the trees, and root nnd scratch for worms, thev would do more good than harm. .Mr. Gourgas is a native of Switzerland, and ho haa long taken an active interest in American agriculture.

LETTER FiToM GEN. SCOTT. .Wit Wathingion. Oct. 25. H41* GKXTLFME.V: I have lately had the honor to receive many letters from as many different States, each propounding, on tho part of the writer and his neighbor, nearly the same political interrogatories—to which answers are requested.

The scope of the inquiries is a flattering proof of the interest that some of mv countrymen take in the opinions that I have formed on ccruiin great principles of abiding importance to the success of our system of government and as I have nothing of value to communicate, I shall at once, without policy or reserve, and in the form of a circular, comply with their several re* quests.

PARTT POLITICS—Although from early manliO'»d I have, by the profession of arms in tho defence of my country, been thorwn out of the arena of party politics, yet I have never ceased to be an attentive observer of public event*, and thus, I believe, there lias scarcely been a discussion of moment in Congress, within my time, on which I did not form, and modestly but firmly express, a passing opinion.

A mere youth, I felt the liveliest joy when the alien and sedition laws expired in the triumph of Mr. Jefferson. From 1806 I was eld enough by speech and pen, to call for a prompt and energetic redress of our wrongs suffered from Great Britain, ittider her orders in Council the attack on the Chesepeake frigate, and long-continued impressment of our seamen and when the war of 1812 at length same, I was amottg the first ond longest in th» presence of the foe. Tlie insults received Irorn the French Directory—their depredations on our commerce, renewed under Napolean's decrees (Berlin and Milan) which followed the British Orders

THE JUOICIAKT.—From an early and long continued study of elementary law, my mind has ever hern imbued with deep reverence for the Bench,

By the redera! Constitution every possible safeguard is provided 10 shield its Judiciary again«t fleeting prejudice, pornical rancor, and party dependence, to which legislator* and the Executive are onovoi'lably, directly,and eoftttantly exposed. Ilencc, "to the one Supreme Court" is wisely extended, by "uppcllate jurisdiction." ''all cases, in law and eqmty, arising wider thisConstitution, the laws of tbe United States, and treaties made, or which sinII be made, under tbeir authority."

Looking to this express provision, jiave always held that when doubtful question, ariwna under ihe Consittaiion itself, the supreme law of the land, under an act of CoAgress or a treaty, has once hern solemnIv adjudicated by that court, tlw principle of the decinon ought ti taken by ail as ddinitely asitjed, unless, indeed, be upon a rc-bearing .before thesaine tribunal.

It if hardly possible to conceive a ease tinder tha firs^ or stcond of these heads against which the Judiciary— the balance-wheel of the system—does not ancra, or itself, all the security that the People can reowre.

But, without tbe protection of either the BeoclfW U» Veto, would the Fjteeutiw Department so super-judicial of late jwars) be too weak to lullrt, the strictly executive funeiions for which i: was mora pinicufarfv creatrdt Or, rather, would not tbatdepartment still be the most powesful for evil ut the bo*,

^The'prcsident, is under the chccks of lha Constitution and law. rightfully invested wilhthe power of tha sword, and he has again and again had that oT the putse Mso. The Hous/o! Congress, it is true, lay taxes, hx imposts, aud regulate the sales of public domain but,, it is he (through hisngelttt) who handles the proceeds., From 1833 to lS3t\ (to say nothing of tbe present,) lie alone nominated nnd dismissed all theagents who foyf, ns well as those whocollected, distributed nrd disbur*ed, tlie pablic revenue. The apothegem, M«k* *s folfr execittoe, u* cart not who art jfour legislators, has a frightful application to such small agents and tho immens* treasure that passes annually through their hands!

The rapid incr^ac and spread of population: the.'* ^j.•growth of national wealth the tunount of revenue^, collected and disbursed the new relations (by theex4s Z.', tension of commercc) with foreign countries the additional appomtmentsat hofne and abroad: thenumlei^ -and valueof ctnitnicts— all constantly and necessariivf on the increase a,general decay in morals, perhaps a9 great in Congress"as elsewhere the habit that we hava seen prevailing during the sevfral Presidential terms. of filling public office with little or no regard to moral standing, have, taken together, already opened to the liead of the Government elements of power and corruption which it was impossible for the framers and adopietsof the Constitution to foresee or to conceive.

Who, at that distant day, for example, everdreamed of the spectacle which has recently disgusted everv honest citizen, of postmasters, mail contractors, mail agents, and ccnsus takers, covering the land with Government pamphlets, handbills, and extra gaxettes, sufficient (if reau) to sap the morals. public and private, of on entire genrrationf—of the custome-house mercenaries in the large cities, living on the public n»njlftctinff every dutv for parly meetings and*the polls, and rendering to Power the most bribe-worthy service?— of District Attorneys and Collectors, rambling missionnarief, defending every abuse or office—their own the most indcccat—in order to maintain power in the bands of th#?r patron? All who have reflected on tha foregoing facts-must ho ready to affirm that ExecuJiv« p-ttrotiage "'has increased, i$ increasing, and ctaght to be diminished."

I hope, then, by.an early amondment of the Con* stitution, to see a reduction of the President's veto. The regulation of pnIronagtf-would properly follow.

There can he no good reason why tho veto should not be ovorctmie by a bare' majority in each house Of Congress of all the members elected to h—say, for the benefit of reflection, nt the end of ten days frona the return of the bill. An amendment to this effect would still leave the President, the general representative of evrry Stato and district, armed ^jtli the votes of all the members absent at the moment from tha respective Hons"* and there will always bo some members ab^nt from both.

It, however, is presumed to refor: 1st, to Governors and Secretaries of Territories, and some of the judges therein, district at• torneys, collectors, surveyors and naval officors of the customs, marshals, postmasters, whose commissions amount to a thoufand dollars par annum, navy sgents, registers and receivers of land offices, general ot lands. end-Indian agents, all of whom aro by law appointed for a term of four ypars, but subject, by ex*

——1 ..nml» lha M.

I am asked, whether (in my poor opinion) nil those functionaries, amounting to many thousands, or any of tlieni ought to be periodically superseded by origt. nnl appointments? If yes, when? jAnd it in a part, onlv, which!

We havo seen llint a great number of officcs are filled for a term of years, and mora without any limitation ns to term. I, howevor can draw no lino of just distinction between the claims of ihe two classcs upon the favor of country or Government.

Premising that reaularpowodicalchangesin tha subordina servants of tbe country, merely for the snke of changc. would necessarily swell Executive patronage, already too much swofl*n, I am obliged 10 add that I more than doubt on other grounds the poltey and justice of such changes. 1. Becsuse, for the able and prompt execution 01 public business, much official experience, in a grcut number of particular stations, is known to bo necessary. 2, Because manjf office-hol-ders, appointed under even reckless administrations, (such os we have socn,) will always, after a time, be found of tried integrity and equal industry and abut* ties. 3. Because, again, sohie may be found in a state of honorable poverty, the results no less of stern integrity than of a long and exclusive devotion to tho interests of the public and, 4. Because, to retnovosuch servants, or no! to re-appointed them nt !h-i ond ot|.i term, would not only discourage successor in a failhlul diecharge of duty, but could not fail to outrage the moral sense of entire communities. I speak on this head from what I witnessed, in !829-*30. of thermal experiment on a large scale* then made upon the sensibilities oi the country, and tho mischiefs to ihe public interestsf which early ensued.

What I would, therefore, humbly adviso isthis: To tuTi out, not only on a change, of Presidwjt, nut in any nnd every week of the year, all office holders known 10 bo dcfMtnt in either honesty, capacity.or industry, and 10 appoint in their stead men known to possess those qualities. Without at noxious attention to this rule, a Government of the People, resting onvirtue and uitelligenee. cannot long be euccessfnlty maintained for a biind or vicious patronage would soon, by the force of tbn highest example, beat down all that is taught in the church, the schoolhouse and thecal lege.
