" A of A murai h an Amurath, succeeds, but Harry. Harry." In a government like ours, where there is no 4 titular succession of sovereignty," but all power from the very nature of our republican institution emanates from the people, it is surely a matter of some surprise that the question of 41 Whom shall rc have to rule over us ?" is so little thought of or agitated by the community In the monarchical governments ot Europe, the death of a monarch, and the appointment of his successor, is a matter which interests every class of society from the occupant of the palace to the inhabitant of the cottage and the meanest wretch who prowls the streets of Lon

don or Paris, will discuss the merits of

the heir apparent to the crown upon the death of George or Lewis, though by the nature of the government, as little inter

estcd in the matter as the Bedouin Arab

of the Desert. In our country, however, where every citizen is called upon not on

ly tor the expression of his opinion, but

also for his vote, it suiely is matter of as

tonishmcnt, that there is nothing like a

general expression of sentiment upon &o

important a subject.

15 nt a short period of time has elapsed and the voice of the West was heard in

the walls of congress through the medi

vim of a single delegate only and the

states which arc now represented by eight

senators and twenty four representatives,

were regarded in the light ot a feudal ap

pendage to the republic and when our

tale was told, for at that period we had no

vote, our elder sisters granted the prayer

. of our petitions, or rejected them as they

thought proper. Time, however, has

. worked wonderful changes in our condi

tion. Instead of being the supplicants instead of bowing and cringing to our el-

ders wc have, beyond a precedent in the

history of nations, ripened into maturity,

& taken our rank among our sister states.

It is for us to improve the advantage

instead of obedience, we now have the

light to command, and should we remain

united, the question ol the next presi dent must be left to us. The states o

Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, will not be ne

glected in this important matter. Either

arc entitled to as much weight in the se

nate as N. York or Pennsylvania and

should the question come before con

gress, as from the number of candidates

and the diversity of claims, it in all hu

man probability will, by throwing our u

nitcd weight in the scale, we shall have

the choice Nothing is wanting then bu

a unanimity ot tiiougnt anu leeung our

interests arc the same let us not be di vided by the policy and intrigue of our ri

vals across the mountains. L,et us rise

in the majesty of our united strength, anc

give to the candidate ot our choice the presidential chair Let no party views

prevent our union let all other questi ons be buried in oblivion except the sin

g!c one 44 Is he friendly to the interests

ot the West Our Atlantic brethren may scout a

the idea, but let me assure them the time is not far distant when the scat of empire

v.-ill be moved this side the Allcghanies

The election of a Western president is

but an entering wedge of Western pow

er and should we but be true to our own

interests, there is little doubt of our sue

they are divided among themselves the

were interests '.not e opposed than those of the dilVcrcr.t colonies at that period they were represented as a disjointed. snake, with the motto join or die " They did

join, and their cause was successful, after

CONFIRMATION Of the Sfilendcd Victory of the Greeks. NEW YORK, OCT. 19. It appears that the ship Howard,

which reached this port the day before yesterday, from Havre, brought French

papers of a later date than those which

wc gave in the Commercial of '1 hursday

and Friday, and containing a clear and

most satisfactory confirmation not only ot

the gieat battle fought at the famous pass of Thermopylae, in which the Turks

were routed with immense slaughter, but

of the subsequent disasters of the invaders, until their final expulsion from the soil of liberty. From these details it

0 would seem, that the official documents

we published yesterday related to a se

cond battle, in which 3,000 Turks were

killed, and thai we are yet without the government bulletin, containing the de

tails of the splended victory which we

hope may seal the emancipation ot

Greece, and place the victors forever be

yond the control of Ottoman tyranny The following translations from the Paris

Constitutionel of the 14in September, for which we are indebted to the Phila

delphia National Gazette of yesterday.

"AFFAIRS OF GREECE. 4The Austrian Observer gave us yes

terday, on the affairs of Greece, details as distressing as erroneous. It is, only necessary to examine dates to be com

forted. In general, the Austrian Journal is to be read with much distrust. We do not say that it is not acquainted with facts, but it warps them to suit its views. In these recent transactions, the Observer, finding nothing that it likes in the late news, recurs to the past and gives

us intelligence from the 4th to the 22d of

July, while, at the same time, it must have received fresher tidings, though indeed of a nature which it relishes less. We shall therefore, abstain from copying minute details, become now useless, and

instead ot contused and vague narratives.

We have just received certain news of the general defeat of the Turks It took place at Thermopylae;. It was the greatest battle which the Greeks have gained since their insurrection. Chourschid Pacha, with an army of 4O,l J0 men, composed of the combined forces of Thessaly and Macedonia, and all the reinforcements from the Bank of the Danube, attack d the straits on the 20th July. The columes of the Turks which got entangled in the defile surrendered after great carnage, and the icst of the l'urkisii army took t fl.ght. Pursued in his retreat, Chourschid Pacha took the rout of Pharsalia ; but in this direction he found the defile of Trachis, about four leagues long, where he lost three-fourths of the remains of his army. From the village of Zoli toThaumacos, the road remained blocked up with dead bodies." These statements are accompanied by particulars of the battles.J "The Souliots, after their two victories

against Omar Pacha, continued their sal

about 2000 horses, 120 camels, and all the

Aibanese, commanded by that Pacha, whose army, which, at the begining of June, amounted to 24,000 men, is now reduced to 7,000." -Zante, Aug. 12. As soon as the Greek government was informed that a Turkish army had penetrated into Peloponnesus, and the Ottoman fleet had the same destination, it issued a proclamation calling all the inhabitants to arms. "In consequence of this proclamation seven or eight thousand volunteer militia joined the troops of Patras. Four thousand Mainotes, in obedience to the orders of their cief, Mavromichale, arrived at L alamata. The other Peloponnesians every where ficw to arms, so that generals Colocotronc and Mavromichale were enabled to march at the head of 16,000 men towards Argos. It was in the plains that they met the enemy whom t'r.ev defeated. uThc wreck of the Turkish army retreated on the side of Corinth, where a corps of about 6000 men, consibtirnr of Turks of Patras, and Lepanto, had just anived. The victorious Greek aiir.y marched against these new enemies This second battle was fought on the 6th and 7th August, 15 davs after the dates of the Austrian Observer) and took place in the plains of St. George, between Argos
