THE POPULAR APPRECIATION OF
r ; HIS CIIAKACTElt.
!ln an eloquent sketch of the life of the
Father of his Country, contained in a vo
lume entitled 44 Washington and the Gen
erals of the Revolution," may he found
the following remark, which wilL strike
the reader as one full of profund interest :
"It is a truth, illustrated in daily expe
dience, and yet rarely noticed or acted up
on, that in all that concerns the apprecia
tion of personal character or ability, the
instinctive impressions of a community
are quicker in their action, more profound
ly apnrpeiant, and more reliable, than the
4-inlellcctuaI perceptions of the ablest men
in the community. Upon all those sub
jects that are of moral apprehension, so
ciety Seems to possess an intelligence of
f lis own iniinueiy sensitive in itsueucacy.
and almost conclusive in the certainty of
its determinations; indirect and uncon
scious in its operation, yet unshunnable in
"sagacity, and as strong and confident as
nature' herself. The highest and the fin
est qualities of human judgment seem to
be in commission Among the nation, or the
race. It is by such a process that, when
ever a true hero appears among mankind,
the recognition of his character, by the
general sense of humanity, is instant and
certain :' the. belief of the chief priests and
Tulers of I mind follows later, or comes not
at all. ' The perceptions of: a public are
as subtle-sighted as its passions are blind.
It sees, and feels, and knows the excel
fence, which it can neither understand,
nor explain, nor vindicate."
' This principle of the instinctive faculty
of a people to detect greatness even in
the germ, the writer applies with, force to
the case of Washington, -to his immedi
ate acceptance by the nation-builders of
70, and tlie uninterrupted command over
their entire confidence!, which he enjoyed
to the last j
v"!"From the first moment of his appear
ance as Vcllief," says the writer, the re
cognition of him, from one end of the
country to the other, as the man the lea
der, the counsellor, the infallible, in sug
gestion and lin conduct was immediate
and universal. From that moment to the
close jpf the scene the national confidence
in bis! capacity was as spontaneous, as en
thusiastic, as imtnovablens it was in his
integrity. Particular persons, alFected by
. the untoward course of events, sometimes
qucstjoned his sufficiency ; but the nation
never questioned it, nor would allow it to
be questioned." 1
Td our. own feelings there is something
repulsive, as if bordering at once on adu
lation and Irreverence, in instituting a
complimentary comparison between the
Father of his Country and any living man
between him who, in the world of de
parted spirits, stands on that glorious pin
nacle of immortal fame, above the Cae
sars and ftfapoleons of the earth, apd the
best and purest creature that can walk its
surface, aspiring to similar excellence and
equal acceptation hereafter. We dp not,
therefore, mean to attempt any parallel
between the character of Zachary Taylor
and that of George Washington. , But we
may! declare, and our readers wijl feel,
J that he history of the former, during the
last two. years, and his present position as
the foremost man of this Republic;, bring

greatness of Washington, and testify to

A WEEK LATER FROM EUROPE.
We learn of the arrival at Boston on
Sunday of the Steamer Acadia, which
sailed from Liverpool on the 29th ultimo.
She brings seven days' later intelligence.
The news from Ireland will be read
with peculiar interest. Although no ac-
magic, it was so strange and splendid ;
and there, most prominent upon the scene.

picture, ever as with a call of his voice,
a flash of his eye, or a wave of his knight

Taylor to satisfy the whole American
mind, thenceforward and forever, that he
was a great man great in all those re
publican characteristics, those virtues, at
once homely and lofty, unpretending yet
impressive, riatural yet heroic, which, ex
perience teaches us, go to form the truest
pattern of? ah American citizen, and the
best model of a safe and patriotic public
officer. Two years' acquaintance with
him has Only proved the truth and relia

of insurrection has reached such a head
that a collision seemed inevitable. The
North American states, however, that
" while appearances, at least in the south,
become more and more alarming, (so al
arming that the public securities of Eng
land have fallen as much as one-and-a-half
per cent, in a single day,) there arc
not wanting persons on the spot who be
lieve that there will be no revolution, and
no tumults even, except such as the Gov
ernment has made ample preparations to
put down.
We have room only for a brief synop
sis of the news, as follows : j
IRELAND.
The English Government are adopting
the most energetic means to meet the im
pending crisis. The Liverpool Times
says that troopsare pouring into Ireland
by thousands. Thirty thousand troops
are concentrating in and about Cork, Lim
erick, and Tipperary. This overwhelm
ingorce has had the effect of exaspera
ting instead intimidating the people to the
extent anticipated.
The habeas corpus act has been sus
pended. The suspension appears in the
form of a royal proclamation. The Queens
special messenger arrived in Dublin on
the 26th of July with a copy of the pro
clamation. It was immediately dispached
to all parts of Ireland, and appears to
have excited a deep feeling of indigna-

arc placfed in a position of degradation,
and prohibited the enjoyment of our rights
and our property ? But go back to the
old issues, and what forcible reasons have
but which so vast apportion of the Amer
ican people are now most anxious that he
should fill.
But the office of the President of a free
people demands, necessarily, political, as
well as intellectual and moral, qualifica
tions ;' and! here General Taylor's party
foes lhirkthcy discover incompetency in
that very Moderation of views which has
commended and deserved to commend
him the jmore strongly to the confidence
of the country. "1 am a Whig but not
an ultra Whig," has ever been his fixed

This is certainly the strongest reason yet
given ; and to those accustomed to the
government of Baltimore leaders it is suf
ficient ; but to South Carolinians, who
have ever opposed conventions and cau
cusses as corrupt systems of unwarranted
dictation, it should have no weight, but
should rather lead to an exercise of the
strictest vigilance. Is General Cass a tho
rough Democrat ? Is he such a Democrat
as to give importance at this time to party
questions? Some time ago he was an
open Federalist, and seems to have taken
pride in making his opinions known thro'
a black cockade. In 1844 he was opposed
to the -annexation of Texas, the question
which carried the Democratic party into
power, or rather had more influence in
bringing about that result than any other;
but in the same year I acknowledge he is
to be found in its favor. He has said that
i our manufactures ought to be protected
by reasonable duties, making him in fa
vor of a Tariff for protection ; and he has
voted, and would now vote, in favor of a
system of internal improvement by the gen
eral government. Mr. Polk, 'tis true, re
ceived the well merited applause of the7
party for interposing his veto in the last
instance, but Mr. Cass received from the
same party, what he values more highly,
and what is certainly more durable, the
nomination, when Mr. Cass's vote is in di
rect opposition to Mr. Polk's veto. Now,
therefore, Mr. Cass is put up as the great
embodiment of Democratic principles; and
it is to be presumed that these principles

have deserted the party, or tne party nave
deserted its principles for availability, and
we are in the same fix in which the whigs
have found themselves. But is the Balti

of slavery ? Mr. Calhoun and all our lea
ding statesmen have 'contended always
that Congress has no right to legislate on

Slavery is a municipal rcgulail
