This order, however, was not executed, simply because the officer charged with its execution had not the physical force requisite.

 These facts and others sufficiently demon strate to us that the Cabinet was deficient m all the requisites as good Government ana that no one in his senses would trust hlllseiI' his reputation, or his fortunes, to their charge or control. Charged with treason, bribery, and aissfrDafiOn. weak in their councils, and still weaker in power to enforce their orders, we perceived at once that we must look for safe ty and proper inducements elsewhere. We then turned our eyes to the army, and a scene still more disheartening presented itself ; un- disciplined, and without an effort to become so; not . roll called, nor drill; no regular encampments no authority nor obedience with plundering parties for self-emolument, robbing private individuals of their property, weicoIid see nothingt to induce us to embark our fortunes and destinies with them. With these views and facts. we could but sicken and wonder at the vile deceptions which have been practised upon us ;s yet we are told that this people had risen up in their might to .yindicate the cause of civil and religious hb- erty. It is inockery of the very name of liberty They are stimulated by thGt niotiUe which such men can only appreciate tke hope of plusader. They are careless of the form of Government under which they live, if that Government will tolerate licentious- ness and disorder. Such is a brief but, we
