heaven eats the bread Of daily toll, living in state
of affiuence and luxury, even when compared with
the condition Of some Of those princes from whose
loins the proudest nation Of Europe recruits the
strength Of Its rotten royal line. Institutions for the
education of the people, munifcently endowed by
the State, exist everywhere and the rich streams OF
knowledge flow unimpeded in all directions The
ministers of religion-not the mercenary hirelings
Of faith "by law established" and chained to the
foostoo Of an earthly throne but the active and la
bonous missionaries of the cross, supported by the
voluntary contributions Of their hocks, constitute
body of men, with exceptions rare indeed, IN which
the friends of morality and virtue, and the republic,
may well repose their highest confidence. Freedom
of the press-freedom Of speech--freedom OF &C
ton exist amongst us in state of perfection, and
wisely, because not rigidly guarded for practi-
cal use never yet amongst any people. And the
results OF this well ordered state of things are
seen everywhere. Peace and liberty rejoice to
gether, as they walk hand in hand throughout the
land, and the voice of contentment and gadness is
heard within our borders.


Such is the glorious present-the vestibule OF "a
still more glorious future. We are now just enter
ing as were on the third of national exls
tence First was the period Of colonial struggle
next the years of our adolescence when gathered
the robust strength and vigor which now in our
third epoch called upon to employ in the full
flment Of our high destiny. Already the first step
has been taken in this work of our usty manhood.
The annexation of Texas is but the starting point In
the great work of subjugation and conquest to be
achieved by the Anglo Saxon race in this great d.
vision of the earth. The whole continent must and
will one day be subdued. And thus in the old and
in the new world the same superior is subdulng
territories, and nations, and people, and tongues,
unto itself. All other races, black, red, yellow, and
brown must bow and fade before it. The most glo-
rious portion of the work is reserved for and for
our children. And that is the universal spread OF
free government and equal laws A spirit has taken
wing from the land of freedom which is destined to
carry civil and religious liberty to the ends of the
earth Into the minds OF al-from the President at
Washington, to the humblest pioneer Of civilization
and freedom whose resounds in the solemn TO-
rest-let this great truth sink deeper and deeper
to the people of this land have been committed the
maintenance and propagation of universal liberty
let all see to it that they faithful to the trust.


Our corps looked up as the firm. meodlous voice
of the saeaker that had touched the heart like glo-



open the window, and looked forth on the now de-
serted streets, for it was long past midnight The
great city was hushed and still OF the solemn
old woods of the mighty west and oh how peace
fully came down the mild effulgence of the eternal
watchers in the skies, shining as bright and unwea-
ried when first the morning stars sang together,
and all the new created worlds shouted aloud for
Joy





CUSTOM HOUSE MovEMENTs-THE FIRST RENO
Valve have already stated the first appointment
at the Custom House, which was Mr.. Kiersted.-
We have now to make record of the first removal
since Mr.. Lawrence came into power, and that is
young Mr.. Bowran, son Of DIR. Bowran. DIR. Bow
ran, the father who is still in the Custom House, was
formerly very efficient member of the committee
which brought forward General Harrison for the
Presidency After the death of Harrison, DR.. Bow
ran became a strong Tyler man, and member of
the famous Tyler Committee, organized by M. M
Noah, which exploded after spending some $4,000
on newspaper operations in this city. DR.. Bowran
himself is very worthy and deserves the place
he has got, but we doubt very much indeed whether
he can be retained long in the present position of
affairs. His son has been removed, il is said, in
consequence of incompetency in conducting the
business Of his office.


This is the first removal; but it is very probable
that there will be a great deal of excitement and
rumor before the general batch of removals take
place Mr.. Lawrence has given no ntimation to
any of the present incumbents what he means to
do We hardly suppose that he knows himself.
The contest will, probably, first be amongst the ap
picants of the Van Buren, clique, to whose names
shall be sent on to Washington by the Secretary,


Al, &c
removals. The wings and the ultra locofocos are
making a great racket and noise against Captain
Rynders, who enjoys some small office in the Gus
tom House, and those associated with him in the
Empire Club. 1t is all very proper for the wings to
make this noise but it seems to be very iberal
and ungrateful in the Van Buren men to act in this
manner. 1t may very well be recollected that the
success OF Captain Rynders and his club were of
essential value in the election of Mr. Pok-so
much so were they considered, at all events, that
the honor of complementary ball was given to
Captain Rynders after the election, and amongst
the names OF those who rendered the compl
ment, the pious, and highly respectable Benja-
min F. Butler figured conspicuously, as well
as many other distinguished Van Buren, men
1t little strange then to this effort
made against these men, especially on the ground
OF imputaons relative to private character and for
mer occupation. We conceive that the life of
poician-the principles OF politician-the soul of
politician-from the highest to the lowest, with
some few exceptions, are quite on par with the
sentiments and ideas Of the gambling shops of Park
Row and Barclay street. The politicians and the
gamblers of the day are chips of the same block-of
equal value and equally prepared for combustion.


ANOTHER PIECE lNTELLIGENcE.-A few days
ago, the Court of Errors of New York made visit
to Coney Island, and after spending part of the
day there and regaling themselves CLAIMS in every
form-baked, stewed, fried, roasted, boiled, broil-
ed, deviled, and hashed, they made sundrv LONG
