History furnishes manv in stances of similar struggles, where the love of liberty has prevailed against power, under every disadvantage, and among them few more striking than that of our own revolution; whereas strong as was the parent country, and ns ft el l -' as were the colonies, et, under the in.pul.-e of liberty and the blessing of Go 1. they gloi iouly triumphed in the conies'.

Were he to trace the analogy further, we would find that the perversion of the taxing power, in one cases has o,iveu precisely the same control to the northern section over the industry of the southern section of the Union, which the power to regulate commerce gave to vireat Britain over the industry of the colonies; and that the very articles ia which the colonies were permited to have a free trade, and those in which the mother country had a monopoly, and almost identically the same as iho-c under which the Southern Slates are permitted to have a free trade by the act of 1S.V2, and which the Northern States have, by the same act, secured

be

to suppose that the Slate had been guilty of the most cgrt gious trifling that ever was exhibited on so solemn an occasion. Mr. O. said that, in reviewing the ground over which ho had passed, it would be apparent that the question iti controversy involved that most deeply important of all political questions, whether ours was a federel or a con-

solidated Government. A question on the decision nf which depends, as he solemnly

J believed, ihe liberty of the People, their hapi pines-, and the dace which we are distined to hold in the moral and intellectual scale of

Nations. Never was there a controvesy in which more important consequences were involved, not excepting that between Persia and (Irece, decided by the battle of .Marathon, Pl.itea, and Sal unis, which gave ascendancy

to the genius of Kniope over that of Asia ; and which, in its consequences, ha continued to affect the destiny of so lar.'e a portion of the world, evu to this day. There is, said Mr . t, often close analogies between events apparently very reunite, which are strikingly illustrated in this. case. In the great contest between t.reece and Persia, between European and Asiatic polity and civilization, the very question between the Federal and consolidated form of government was involved. The .Viatic Governments, from Ihe remotest time, with some exceptions on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean, have been based on the principle of consolidation, which considers the

whole community as but a unit; and consolidates its power in a central point. The opposite principle has prevailed in Europe Greece, throughout all her States, was based on a federal system. All were united ia one common, hut loose bond, and the Governments, of the several Stales partook, (or the most part, of a complex organization, which distributed political power among different members of the community. 'Ihe same principles prevailed in ancient Italy; and, if we turn to tiie Teutonic rac;, our great ancestors, the

race which occupies the first place in power, civilization, and science, and which possess the largest and the fairest part of Europe, we will find that their Governaienls were based on the federal organization, as has been clearly illustrated by a recent and able writer on Ihe British constitution, (Mr. Palgruve,) from whose, writings he introduced the following

extract : But, to return to the point immediately

under consideration. lie knew that it was not only the opinion of a larse majority of our

country, bu I it might be said to be the opin

ion of the age, that the very beau ideal of a perfect Government was th government of a majoritv, acting through a represensative

and reason, we will Cud, that so far from be

Mr. C,) that in venturing this assertion

liberty are concerned, such considerations should not bo regarded. He would place the

decision of tins point on the fact, that no gov

which had been made, had ever endured for a

single generation ; but, on the contrary, hai

invariably exin ricneci! the fate which he had

as-igned to them. Let a single instance b' pointed out and he would surrender his opin

to direc t our judgement, reason itself wouh

they had put in ; and, in addition, that which was put in by their associates; or, in other words, taking taxation and appropriation together, they have gained, and their associate' have lost, two hundred dollars by the fiscal action of the government. And opposite interests, in reference to the action of the government, is thus created between them; the one having an interest in favor and the othei against the taxes; the one to increase and the oilier to decrease the taxes, the one to retain the taxes when the money is no longer wanted, and the other to repeal them when the object

for which they were levied have been executed. Let us suppose this community of five to be raised to twenty-four individuals, to be governed in like manner by the will of a majority; it is obvious that the same principle would divide them into two interests into a majority and a minority, thirteen against eleven, or in some other proportion : and that al! the

consequences, which ho had shown to be applicable to the small community of five, would be equally applicable to the greater the cause not depending upon the number, but resulting necessarily from the action of the government itself. Let us now suppose that, instead o( governing themselves directly in an assembly of the whole, without the intervention of agenls, they should adopt the representative principle, and that, instead of being governed by a majority of themselves, they should be governed by a majority of their representatives. It is obvious that the operation of the system would not be effected by the change,

HOLLAND. Baussras, Jan. 18, 8 o'clock, (evening.) The following intelligence being of great importance, I hasten to communicate it to you. It arrived thiseveninsr to the Government in a dis

interest of the cwmmunity. The first mistake was, in supposing that the government of the absolute majority is the government of this people that beau ideal of a perfect govern

ment, which had been so enthusiastically en

tertained in every age by the generous and j patriotic, where civilization had made the j smallest nroirreis. There could be no creater

error; the government of the people is the gov- pntch from Gen.

side, and despotism on the other, none other can be devised but that which considers society, in reference to its parts, as differently affected by the action of the government, and which takes the sense of each part separately, and thereby the sense of the whole; in the manner already illustrated.

There is, indeed, a distinction between a large and a small community, not affecting the principle, but the violence of the action. In the former, the similarity of the interests of all the parts, will limit the oppression from the hostile action of the parts, in a great degree, to the fiscal action of the government merely ; but in the large community, spreading over a country of grat extent, and having a great diversity of interests, with different kinds of labor, capital, and production, the conflict and oppression will extend, not only to a monopoly o the appro

From the Missouri Republican, March 5. INDIAN OUTRAGE. Several gentlemen arrived in town

on Saturday from Santa Fe. We learn

that they state, that they were attach

ed to a party of twelve traders, all of

them returning home, that they were attacked on the Canadian Fork of the Arkansas, distant about two hundred miles from Santa Fe, by probably k25i) Camanche Indians; and that an engagement ensued which lasted 3"2 hours, and resulted in the death of two men. We understand that on the day of the

attack about the first of January Indians were occasionally seen about them; and that, in the evening, when one ol the party attempted to bring in a mule or two which had strayed some 40 yards from the main body, he was fired upon and killed. His name was Pratt, a tinner, who had resided some time in Santa Fe: Two balls and two spears entered his body. The attack was now commenced. Immediately the horses and mules were tied to a

tree; and they, together with the bag

gage, afforded some protecton while the party were engaged in digging a trench in the sand sufficiently deep to protect them from the balls of the Indians. But before this could be done.

another of the party, a Mr. Mitchell of

IJoon County, was killed. The action

lasted untill twelve at night, when the

ind substitute in its place the most violent

party attachment, and, instead of having one

common centre of attachment, around which the affections of the community might rally,

there would, in fact, be two the interests of

the majority, to which those who constitute

that majority, would be more attached than

they wi.uld be to the whole, and that of the minority, to which they in like manner would

a lo be more altaciieil man to the interests f

the whole. Faction would thHS take the

place of patriotism, and, with the loss of pa

triotism, corruption must necessarily follow,

ind, in its train, anarchy, and finally, despo-

iism, or the establishment ol absolute power in a single individual, as a means of arresting the conflict of hostile interests ; on the principle

that rt is better to submit to the will of a single

individual, who by being made lord and master nf the whole community, would have an

equal interest in the production of all the

parts.

Let us not suppose, that in order to avert the calamitous train of consequences, this little community should adopt a written constitution, with limitations restricting the will o." the majority, in order to protect the minority

against the oppression which he had shown would necessarily result without such restrictions. It is obvious that the ease would not be in the slightest degree varied, if the majority be left in possession of the right of judging exclusively of the exteut of its powers, without any right on the part of the minority, to enforc the restrictions imposed by the Constitution on the will of the majority. The point is almost too clear for illustration. Nothing can bj more certain than that when a Constitution grants power, anil imposes limitations on the exercise of that power, whatever interst may obtain possession of the Government,

Immediately on the rescind-

It is slated that Beuff Pacha, who had been expected to defend the strong position of Koniah, had, in consequence of the hostile disposition manifested by the inhabitants, found it necessary, on the approach of Ibrahim Pacha, to retreat upon Ackshebur, abandoning a great part of his ammunition and haggage. The Grand Visicr, Iledschid Mehemed Pacha, who soon after arrived al the camp, undertook a reconnoisance, at the head of 10,000 cavalry to ascertain Ihe enemy's strength. The result was, (hat he concentrated the whole of his force in the neighbor
