Declaration of the ISthAiril. Lou".s, by the Grace of God &c Uc At the moment of our return to the midst of our people, we believe that we owe to them, in the face of Europe, a solemn declaration of our sentiments and of the intentions of our Allies . When heaven and the nation recalled us to ,the throne, we made to God and to Fi ancc the promise, sweet to our heart to forget injuries ani to labor witnout ceasing for the happiness of our sub- jects. The sons of St. Louis have never com- mitted treason against heaven or against their Already our people had sound again, by our cares, abundance and repose within, and the esteem of all na tions without. Already the throne, sha- ken by so many shocks, was begining to Le established again, when treason forced us to quit oitr capital and to seek refuge in the confines of our states. In the mean time Enrope, faithful to her trea- ties, would not recognize, as king oi France any one but us. Twelve hundred thousand soldiers were desirous to march toj assure the rtpose of the world and to deliver our fair country a second time. In tliis state of things, a man, whose ar- tifice and falshood foim at this day his whole puwer, seeks to lead astray the rnmj of the nation by fallacious promises, to raise it up against its legitimate King, and to draw it down into the abyss as it were, for the purpose of accomplishing his frightful prophecy of 1814 is Ifall they shall learn hoxv much the fall ofa great man costs " In the midst of the alarms which the present dangers of France, have produced in our heart, the crown, which we have never regarded but as the means of doing good, wduuf have lost all its charm in our eyestrand we would have resumed with pride the route for our exile (where twenty years of our life were employed in efforts for the happiness of Frenchmen) is the country was not menaced, in futu- rity with all the calamities to which our return had put a period, and is we were not, as it respects the nations, the guar- antee of France, The sovereigns who give us, this day, so great a mark of their afT.uion ; can not be any more abused by the Cabinet of Bonaparte, whose macheualism. is so well known to them, and animated by the of natlonslisWell con'vlnceo", iiispTte ' of iuminpaired by the assaUUsof foreign enemies? country, country.

(Signed) The Duke De FELTRE ax okatiox Delivered on the FOURTH Or JULY, at Mrx well's Spring (at the 'request of the different vo lunteer corps of Lexington) bj Jo jj Bickllit Esa. Fellow Citizens The honor which has been conferred on me of addressing so respectable a portion of mj countrjmen on this anniversaiy of our inde. pendence, is sensibly felt ; I will theiefore en- deavor, however feeble the effort, to perform the task assigned. This day, thirty-nin- e years since, our ances- tors, the immortal patriots of the revolution, asserted the independence of the IT. Slates ci Amerioa, which tliey established in defunct of tlntish power and of British tyranny. With- out a regularly constituted government, with out the usual means of warfare, and but sew n. numbers, did they triumph over the ligi s of Britain and with their best blood, purchaser all of Uueity, which we, their descendants, enjoy. For these reasons, this day has been set apart, by the unanimous sentiment of the people, as Unpolitical sabbath of America We meet here to day, to celemate the era of our national existence, and the deeds ot the sages, and the fats of the warriors, to whose wisdom and invincible bravery, we owe the in- estimable boon. And thus by honoring the acts of our fathers, we call forth those feel- ings of patriotism and of valor which stimula- ted them, and which will perpetuate the in lieritance they transmitted to us. When, there sore, the 4lh dy ot July, 1776, shall be for gotten, little ot American liberty will remain. It will be an epochu, when the science wh ch now illuminates and adorns our country, will have yielded to the barbarism of tl"- - savage when brutal furce, united to brut 1 stupidity, w 11 be 'he umpire ot political right and th priest, with the holy book in ne hand, and the tiery faggot in the other, will pronounce the law of toleration, lint let us not indulge in th' anticipation of an event which may never occur; bnt c joy the present moment which abounds u it.li so much of interest. Tne independence of the United Stales did more to enlighten the human mind and to pro mole the great cause of Immunity, than all the changes and revolutions ot power which have agguatei and convulsed the world for centimes'. Under the mild and salutary form oi govvrnment which pervades every class ot s iciety, tree scope is given to the faculties of man m a country interior to none on the habit able globe free and unrestrained operation is given to the energies and resources of the mind in pursuit of impiovement, which con- tributes to please the taste and satisfy the wants of the peo, e who inhabit this young and growing empire and an example isjafford ed to the oppressed of all nations, by which they may learn how to obtain and to preserve tht b. ssings of liberty. Accordingly we hsTi witnessed in our country, under the auspi ces of free institutions, that man is entirely different from what many had supposed him to be. He is capable of exercising every pre rdege essential to his happaies, which does not interfere with the rights and privileges of others. He is capable of adding a rigor and an enterprising activity to his character, which create out of a wilderness in a sew short years aroiverful and a respectableempire of giving an imptllse to science and to the arts which advances the youngest country of the world, above the oldest and most civilized na tions. This assylum of liberty is the chosen spot ef genius, and so long as it remains free as it now is, will continue to be her tutelary guardian. When then it is our fortune to en joy so much of good, and the rest of the world so much ot evil can we lorcet those who be queathed it .' No the most splendid and lasting works ot art may decay and moulder tuto ruin but the names and deeds ot the A mencan revolutionists, will still live. Immor tal men ! wherever there dwells a friend to patpiotism and'virtue in whatever clime and in whatever age your illustrious achievement will exist in grateful recollection and those whose glory it will be to reform the abuses of the old systems, will point to y.iur example and advance to the task with an Unshaken con fidence and irresiatable ordor I The greatest ornaments to civilization ot which the present age can boast, have their origin in your labors. Behold the condition of Europe, and compare it with our happy situation ! There, even in the short intervals of peace, which shed over them a momentary repose, they drag out a wretched existence enveloped in all the hor- rors of slavery and superstition, and in all the misery of poverty. Here, we enjoy all the blessings of which our natures are suscepti- ble i and is in support of these, we are duven to war, it is a sacrifice made by comm in con sent to maintain and perpetuate tdem In such a struggle, the freeman's arm is d ubly while his heart beams forth the gentle influ- ence ot humanity over the vanquished foe loveandinterests"which they barto their whicH exntes at once their astonishment and Z. 1 at .. ... - t'J .?

And here, permit me to observe, in the language ot a statesman oi our own coun- try, that " suspicion, detestable as it is in pri- vate life, is the loveliest trait of political cha- racter" That apathy in a republic which would submit to the measures of these in au- thority without investigation, leads directly to the subversion of liberty. And this false confidence in public men has, perhaps c n- - iributed more than any other trait in the human character, to limit the circle of free go- - v t me .ts. Nations have ever attached too mu li respect to authority and thus they have r m dned in almost peipetual slavery. For it 1 th- - natuial disposition of those who govern, to encroach upon the rights of the governed. The good citizen while he submits to the decrees of the constituted authorities of the. vouiitry, never hesitates" to scrutinize them with boldness.and with firmness ; that errors, wether of the head or of the heart, may be de- lected and corrected. It is by the observance of these rules only, that liberty can be main- tained. The best and wisest men ate liable to err, and the worst are too often seen under the most specious pretexts. Then let us re gard as holy, the liberty of the press. In a country so extensive as ours, punnc men and measures cann6t be effectually reached thro any other medium. By this mean, the people of Maine and of Lomsiai , of Alichigan and of Georgia, can aln o t at the same moment ex change their diff'eient sentiments learn from one another their views of national policy and by this mutual interchange of opini .11, that course which will conduce most to .ts support. The popularity and influence of an individual which m glit be dangerous with-- the o;al sphere of its opperation, is render- ed harmless to the nation so long as the right 0 investigate his conduct ..nd opjmo is exists n its present purity. Faction which by its combinations and intigues, might stifle the ei'timents or corrupt the principles of the peo-de- , is exposed by this po ent engind, an I the s orm w th tf1' d it menaces the country, falls withifuriuus dest-uctio- n upon its own head. Through the medium ol the press, the arts h Dences are improved and enlarged, and the hole concerns of the human fimily receive hat aid, for which we may search in vain else- where. But fet.er it muke it theinstrumem of the govermecit tj subserve its own viewo-an- d like the meek religion of Jesus, in the bands o' knaves, it b comes prostituted to the m ist detectable purposes. To irive that intellige-c- e and direction to t!u rubhc sentiment, whxh is rtq'isite under uijututions UKe ours, the press, uniteu to a .jund in hod of education, is our surest reli- ance. Cut on the vital subject of education, much rei..ams to be done. AVe have too mucl it the European system about us. We forget that the p.n ciple of our government is at war with that of almost all other governments ; that modts of thinking and of acting which re essential to the preservation of others, would annihilate our. Under the influence jt these errors, British books are introduced nto our sell ols which abound in British max-m- s alike d structive to the moral ai d politi ai principles of the American youth. Thus it s, that this sLigular phenomenon presents this day 111 the United States : thatwri te 1 on morals and" on politics, who are consi- - de.ed most correct by the enlightened men ot our count y writers who have been the most efficient assertors of public liberty, have to yield their place in our school libraries to hose who were in vogue moie than a century ago, whose doctrines have long since been ex- ploded. From this system ot education, 11 cannot be believed and ought not tu be ex ect- - ed that the interests of the country the cause of republicanism, will receive the assistance they require. But is our ancestors had the in- telligence and firmness to throw oil' the shac- kles of arbitral y government, does it iijt re- flect upon us that we have enough of neither tv abandon the corruptions of the schools ? This reflection is just and severe ; let us ceaae to deserve it. she policy that ought to be pursued, in the developement of our internal res jurces, as con- nected with our exterior relations, mvoles questions ot the first magnitude. On no occa- sion, in my humble conception, with m.ire y than the present, could they be adverted to. Th.s day, which reminds Us of the causei that led to our independence, it would seem should have some influence in exhibiting the means of placing it upon a permanent basis. It is acknowledged by all politicians, that our safety depends upon union. Then let us s.iive to make the union as perfect as prac- ticable. Let us unite by all the ties that can be brought into operation, the variuus inter- ests of this extensive community. Let us, by the intervention bf roads and ot canals, con- nect distant p6ints of the country, which feel at present that they have different iiuersts 'I hus would we introduce individuals ot tha same family, who are at present st. angers, and who require only reciprocal intercourse to bind them together by the indissoluble cords of interest and affection. These are the true principles on which the union of these states depend it would be folly to expect it on any others. Kvery-effor- t of crenius. which condu ces either to the security or wealth of the coun try, should be cherished by the people and the government. Such men as the celebrated Fdl- - tos, who lias just " past from among us," are not only an ornament and bulwark to their country, but they may justly be ranked amoug the benefactors of mankind. The invention of the steam frigate, which has recently under. gone a successfull experiment, encourages the strongest expectation that this potent engine of national defence will have all the efficacy which the most sanguine of its friend anticipa ted. Is so, a new mean of naval defence will be at our command, which Will ensure the safety of our extensive seaboard. Other na- tions can adopt the important discovery, and the horror heretofore produced by the floating walls of England will be dissipated, and the freedom of the seas once more rescued from the tyranny of her overwhelming' power on the ocean. We thojld in every practicable way, culti vate our internal resources as well for nation- al as for individual comfort and convenience ; that our dependence on foreign countries may deminish, as we increase in enterprise and in. dustry. Domestic manufactures should claim our first attention. Untill we manufacture for ourselves untill we can dispense with the swarm of British " Callico Embassadors" who are to be sound in such numbers in our sea- port towns, foreign influence will still continue to be felt and to corrupt the community. Ot this we have had suflicieut warning in the war which has just closed. The independence and the rights of the nation were jeapordized by the formidable sleets and armies of the enemy, winch imperiously demanded that all our strength should be put forth. But how was this call ot putristismandof duty answered by that portion of the community who had been contaminated by their dependence on British comiierce and their consequentattachment to British" principle 9 1 - -- 1 - .

The following extract from a procla-mation of the allies is given in theAristargue Francois, a Paris paper ofMay the 1st.

PROCLAMATION OF THE COM-BINED ALL1E S

It is very imprudent to suspect thatwe leave Bpnap'art to act in all his si

Frenchmen we repeat it, ouraims are not turned aggainst you ; weouly wish to bring down to the groundt e man whojias never ceased to violate,the most sacred and the most legitimaterights : we will maintain with all our for-

ces the treat) of peace which we havesigned with Lbuis XVIII ; we will re-

place him upon the throne ; we will nev-er acknowledge

'

any government thanthat which ought to exist under hisdynasty ; we swear it in the presence ofthe untvcisc."

f Those unmeaning intrigues (sardesmenees) which we read in the Gazettesof France, do not impose upon us ; weknow the minds of good Frenchmen ; weknow their love lor the descendants ofHenry IVth, thtir legitimate princes i

we cannot then suppose that Bonapartelias influence enough to collect twomillions of Frenchmen under his flags ;

a' all events, Frenchmen, be persuaded,that it will be easy for us to oppose adouble number, is there should be needof it '"

men, our assembled cohorts, march underthe banners of your king, his cockade andWhite slag."

Declaration of the ISthAiril.Lou".s, by the Grace of God &c UcAt the moment of our return to the

midst of our people, we believe that weowe to them, in the face of Europe, asolemn declaration of our sentimentsand of the intentions of our Allies .

When heaven and the nation recalledus to ,the throne, we made to God and toFi ancc the promise, sweet to our heart toforget injuries ani to labor witnoutceasing for the happiness of our sub-

jects.The sons of St. Louis have never com-

mitted treason against heaven or againsttheir Already our people hadsound again, by our cares, abundance andrepose within, and the esteem of all nations without. Already the throne, sha-ken by so many shocks, was begining toLe established again, when treason forcedus to quit oitr capital and to seek refugein the confines of our states. In themean time Enrope, faithful to her trea-ties, would not recognize, as king oiFrance any one but us. Twelve hundredthousand soldiers were desirous to marchtoj assure the rtpose of the world andto deliver our fair country a secondtime.

In tliis state of things, a man, whose ar-

tifice and falshood foim at this day hiswhole puwer, seeks to lead astray thernmj of the nation by fallacious promises,to raise it up against its legitimate King,and to draw it down into the abyss as itwere, for the purpose of accomplishinghis frightful prophecy of 1814 is Ifallthey shall learn hoxv much the fall ofagreat man costs "

Fellow CitizensThe honor which has been conferred on me

of addressing so respectable a portion of mjcountrjmen on this anniversaiy of our inde.pendence, is sensibly felt ; I will theiefore en-

deavor, however feeble the effort, to performthe task assigned.

This day, thirty-nin- e years since, our ances-

tors, the immortal patriots of the revolution,asserted the independence of the IT. Slates ciAmerioa, which tliey established in defunctof tlntish power and of British tyranny. With-out a regularly constituted government, without the usual means of warfare, and but sew n.numbers, did they triumph over the ligi s ofBritain and with their best blood, purchaserall of Uueity, which we, their descendants,enjoy. For these reasons, this day has beenset apart, by the unanimous sentiment of thepeople, as Unpolitical sabbath of AmericaWe meet here to day, to celemate the era ofour national existence, and the deeds ot thesages, and the fats of the warriors, to whosewisdom and invincible bravery, we owe the in-

estimable boon. And thus by honoring theacts of our fathers, we call forth those feel-

ings of patriotism and of valor which stimula-ted them, and which will perpetuate the inlieritance they transmitted to us. When, theresore, the 4lh dy ot July, 1776, shall be forgotten, little ot American liberty will remain.It will be an epochu, when the science wh chnow illuminates and adorns our country, willhave yielded to the barbarism of tl"- - savagewhen brutal furce, united to brut 1 stupidity,w 11 be 'he umpire ot political right and thpriest, with the holy book in ne hand, and thetiery faggot in the other, will pronounce thelaw of toleration, lint let us not indulge inth' anticipation of an event which may neveroccur; bnt c joy the present moment whichabounds u it.li so much of interest.

Tne independence of the United Stales didmore to enlighten the human mind and to promole the great cause of Immunity, than allthe changes and revolutions ot power whichhave agguatei and convulsed the world forcentimes'. Under the mild and salutary formoi govvrnment which pervades every class ots iciety, tree scope is given to the faculties ofman m a country interior to none on the habitable globe free and unrestrained operation isgiven to the energies and resources of themind in pursuit of impiovement, which con-tributes to please the taste and satisfy thewants of the peo, e who inhabit this youngand growing empire and an example isjafforded to the oppressed of all nations, by whichthey may learn how to obtain and to preservetht b. ssings of liberty. Accordingly we hsTiwitnessed in our country, under the auspices of free institutions, that man is entirelydifferent from what many had supposed himto be. He is capable of exercising every prerdege essential to his happaies, which doesnot interfere with the rights and privileges ofothers. He is capable of adding a rigor andan enterprising activity to his character, whichcreate out of a wilderness in a sew short yearsaroiverful and a respectableempire of givingan imptllse to science and to the artswhich advances the youngest country of theworld, above the oldest and most civilized nations. This assylum of liberty is the chosenspot ef genius, and so long as it remains freeas it now is, will continue to be her tutelaryguardian. When then it is our fortune to enjoy so much of good, and the rest of the worldso much ot evil can we lorcet those who bequeathed it .' No the most splendid andlasting works ot art may decay and mouldertuto ruin but the names and deeds ot the Amencan revolutionists, will still live. Immortal men ! wherever there dwells a friend topatpiotism and'virtue in whatever clime andin whatever age your illustrious achievementwill exist in grateful recollection and thosewhose glory it will be to reform the abuses ofthe old systems, will point to y.iur exampleand advance to the task with an Unshaken confidence and irresiatable ordor I The greatestornaments to civilization ot which the presentage can boast, have their origin in your labors.Behold the condition of Europe, and compareit with our happy situation ! There, even inthe short intervals of peace, which shed overthem a momentary repose, they drag out awretched existence enveloped in all the hor-rors of slavery and superstition, and in all themisery of poverty. Here, we enjoy all theblessings of which our natures are suscepti-ble i and is in support of these, we are duvento war, it is a sacrifice made by comm in consent to maintain and perpetuate tdem In sucha struggle, the freeman's arm is d ublywhile his heart beams forth the gentle influ-ence ot humanity over the vanquished foe

or the violence of domestic factions, to the latest aires. And here, permit me to observe, inthe language ot a statesman oi our own coun-

try, that " suspicion, detestable as it is in pri-

vate life, is the loveliest trait of political cha-

racter" That apathy in a republic whichwould submit to the measures of these in au-

thority without investigation, leads directlyto the subversion of liberty. And this falseconfidence in public men has, perhaps c n- -

iributed more than any other trait in thehuman character, to limit the circle of free go- -

v t me .ts. Nations have ever attached toomu li respect to authority and thus they haver m dned in almost peipetual slavery. For it1 th- - natuial disposition of those who govern,to encroach upon the rights of the governed.

The good citizen while he submits to thedecrees of the constituted authorities of the.vouiitry, never hesitates" to scrutinize themwith boldness.and with firmness ; that errors,wether of the head or of the heart, may be de-

lected and corrected. It is by the observanceof these rules only, that liberty can be main-tained. The best and wisest men ate liableto err, and the worst are too often seen underthe most specious pretexts. Then let us regard as holy, the liberty of the press. In acountry so extensive as ours, punnc men andmeasures cann6t be effectually reached throany other medium. By this mean, the peopleof Maine and of Lomsiai , of Alichigan and ofGeorgia, can aln o t at the same moment exchange their diff'eient sentiments learn fromone another their views of national policyand by this mutual interchange of opini .11,

that course which will conduce most to.ts support. The popularity and influence ofan individual which m glit be dangerous with--

the o;al sphere of its opperation, is render-ed harmless to the nation so long as the right

0 investigate his conduct ..nd opjmo is existsn its present purity. Faction which by its

combinations and intigues, might stifle theei'timents or corrupt the principles of the peo-de- ,

is exposed by this po ent engind, an I thes orm w th tf1' d it menaces the country, fallswithifuriuus dest-uctio- n upon its own head.Through the medium ol the press, the arts hDences are improved and enlarged, and thehole concerns of the human fimily receive

hat aid, for which we may search in vain else-

where. But fet.er it muke it theinstrumemof the govermecit tj subserve its own viewo-an- d

like the meek religion of Jesus, in thebands o' knaves, it b comes prostituted to them ist detectable purposes.

To irive that intellige-c- e and direction tot!u rubhc sentiment, whxh is rtq'isite underuijututions UKe ours, the press, uniteu to a.jund in hod of education, is our surest reli-

ance. Cut on the vital subject of education,much rei..ams to be done. AVe have too muclit the European system about us. We forgetthat the p.n ciple of our government is at warwith that of almost all other governments ;

that modts of thinking and of acting whichre essential to the preservation of others,

would annihilate our. Under the influencejt these errors, British books are introducednto our sell ols which abound in British max-m- s

alike d structive to the moral ai d politiai principles of the American youth. Thus its, that this sLigular phenomenon presents

this day 111 the United States : thatwrite 1 on morals and" on politics, who are consi- -

de.ed most correct by the enlightened men otour count y writers who have been the mostefficient assertors of public liberty, have toyield their place in our school libraries tohose who were in vogue moie than a century

ago, whose doctrines have long since been ex-ploded. From this system ot education, 11

cannot be believed and ought not tu be ex ect- -

ed that the interests of the country the causeof republicanism, will receive the assistancethey require. But is our ancestors had the in-

telligence and firmness to throw oil' the shac-

kles of arbitral y government, does it iijt re-

flect upon us that we have enough of neithertv abandon the corruptions of the schools ?

This reflection is just and severe ; let us ceaaeto deserve it.

she policy that ought to be pursued, in thedevelopement of our internal res jurces, as con-nected with our exterior relations, mvolesquestions ot the first magnitude. On no occa-

sion, in my humble conception, with m.ire y

than the present, could they be advertedto. Th.s day, which reminds Us of the causeithat led to our independence, it would seemshould have some influence in exhibiting themeans of placing it upon a permanent basis.

It is acknowledged by all politicians, thatour safety depends upon union. Then let uss.iive to make the union as perfect as prac-ticable. Let us unite by all the ties that canbe brought into operation, the variuus inter-ests of this extensive community. Let us, bythe intervention bf roads and ot canals, con-nect distant p6ints of the country, which feelat present that they have different iiuersts'I hus would we introduce individuals ot thasame family, who are at present st. angers, andwho require only reciprocal intercourse tobind them together by the indissoluble cordsof interest and affection. These are the trueprinciples on which the union of these statesdepend it would be folly to expect it on anyothers. Kvery-effor- t of crenius. which conduces either to the security or wealth of the country, should be cherished by the people and thegovernment. Such men as the celebrated Fdl- -tos, who lias just " past from among us," arenot only an ornament and bulwark to theircountry, but they may justly be ranked amougthe benefactors of mankind. The inventionof the steam frigate, which has recently under.gone a successfull experiment, encourages thestrongest expectation that this potent engineof national defence will have all the efficacywhich the most sanguine of its friend anticipated. Is so, a new mean of naval defence willbe at our command, which Will ensure thesafety of our extensive seaboard. Other na-tions can adopt the important discovery, andthe horror heretofore produced by the floatingwalls of England will be dissipated, and thefreedom of the seas once more rescued fromthe tyranny of her overwhelming' power on theocean.

We thojld in every practicable way, cultivate our internal resources as well for nation-al as for individual comfort and convenience ;that our dependence on foreign countries maydeminish, as we increase in enterprise and in.dustry. Domestic manufactures should claimour first attention. Untill we manufacturefor ourselves untill we can dispense with theswarm of British " Callico Embassadors" whoare to be sound in such numbers in our sea-port towns, foreign influence will still continueto be felt and to corrupt the community. Otthis we have had suflicieut warning in the warwhich has just closed. The independence andthe rights of the nation were jeapordized bythe formidable sleets and armies of the enemy,winch imperiously demanded that all ourstrength should be put forth.
