 Extract from pamphlet writien hv GARRr. E SMITH, Esq, of PeterbOro, New York:

 No patton can prosper-cau ever I,e hel,

 together, hy virtue of political -c0npac

 merely. France alone has attempted it; anc

 u cost the blood of hundreds of thousands o

 ner su"Jects, t0 attest the failure of her exper-

 'me"t' and the indispensableness of auxiliary

 moral and religious influences. Christianity

 IS admitted to be the very soul of the systems

 of morals and religion in our country: and.

 therefore, whether these systems, or even christianity itself, be true or false, sound or suPerst'tlons, happily or Unhappily chosen hy "s' IS stIlI equally certain, that if chrisiiani.

 's once annihilated in our land, we shall be 'tit, hke revolutionary France, when she an- 0!n'ated 't-utterly destitute Of moral or reli- gi"us control, and in a condition as much worse than that of the heather nations, as tne restraints Of their systems of supersti. iion and idOlatFy are preferable to blank alhe- ism and Unrcpressrd wickedness. But chris t'an'ty can nO more survive in land that re. fuses her the Sabbath, than can animal life in an atmosphere deprived of oxygen. Lam gushing amidst the ungenial pursuits of the secular days of the week, she Sitahy needs the return of that holy one, in which she can refresh herself with breathiugs of her uative air. Look over all Christendom. and i. win he found, that the christian religion fourishes or declines, precisely according to the strict or lax observance of the Sabbath and the spot where the Sabbath is totally neglected, IS the spot where christianity has expired.- Our government might supply every family in the United States with copy of the Bi- b'e. and every neighborhood with house for worship. and the gospel ministry: and yet, if they had the power, and should exertit, to a. 6olish .hs SHbRRabho 4a hoit # R4as % e" '

 There are those who abandon tne pea ". strict necessity, for this work on tne l.oru Day. and yet see nothing very a'as""s the nature ar extent of this violation oi "'

 YVe differ widely from them; and 10 the xO or sC. 900 pcrsons directly, and in the many times that number indirectly in th's S'0'at.o"' and still more, in the invitation and eanc',on' which this authorised. this national proclamation of this holy day, gives to other abuses oI "' we see such flood of wOrldliness rising uP' on the Sabbath, as must either 5000 aO.!e or sweep down it's barriers, and leave It uno'sIin- gu;shabIe from other days. .r

 We admit. of course, that tt is no part ot the direct business of our National Lrgis'a' ,nrs in nromote our great moral and religious interests: but we ale not sO squeam'sh as ,hey are. in whose eyes that Legislature 's so

 rigidly and purely political, that tt may m no 1 wise, regard these interests; not even TOT

 their subservience to our political we'tare.--

 Farther still, we are from agreeing w"m Sueh

 as seem to have imbibed the fdea' that Con.

 gress can be innocent. in directly ana Kn0w ingly trampling upon these in'erests' we need say no more than we have sa'd' to sno"

 the indispensableness of these interests 10 tn'

 very existence of our political .nstnut!"nS

 and the position, that because the o"''es :" |"

 congress are exclusively evil, they are at I'b

 erty to .xecute these trGsts, in ways deroga tory and ruinous to the great moral and pol't

 icai interests of the nation. is too palPab!y fa'

 lacious tO require a moments refUtation.--

 Great as are the blessings of eisiI government

 t would be far too dearly bought by "s,

 the security of these interests cannot consis

 win the operation Of that government. An

 what, indeed, we may ask. hut the securlt of these interests. is the principal object Ofth , institution of civil government As IOsum

 cient an excuse would congress have for ex , ecuting their trusts, in a manner so wasteit , of our most precious possessions. as they ms . whom we have employed to recover our s'ra , animal would have, for breaking down ou fences, trampIing down our crops. ana k'il'n our horse, in his reckless accomplishment : his petty agency.
