In a late debate in the British bouse of
commons, Mr. Brougham alluded to the
last annual speech of the President of the
uniiea stsies, ana saia, -inai, sir, is 1
manly and intelligible speech j thr docu
ment describes the' policy of a wie gov
ernment in manner worthy 01 a free
and independent people. - May no mean
jealousy prevent ut from following where
it might hive been our praise to lead ;
nd aa they have the glory, let ue have
our shsre of the advantages ; let us join a
kindred people let ot hold to free insti
tutiona; let ua aid other freemen, who
for liberty's sake, seek to put bounds to
that league of despots, who, after subdu
ng all other freemen, would certainly at
tempt to conquer us. A compliment
ike this to eur country and its chiefs ma
gistrate, from an English statesman like
Mr. Brougham, it well calculated to awa
ken in us feelings of honest nstiona! pride
and exultation. . ,Mr. Bioughsm, in the
same speech, tpoke of M the message of
Mr. Monroe as an event than which none
had ever dispersed greater exultation and
gratitude over all the freemen in Europe.
Lord Lansdown, in the other house of
parliament, '' tpoke, highly of the conduct
of the American republic in regard to
the South American states: ..It had set
an example, he said, in throwing its shield
overahemL4hit.esrly-period,., which
England ought to have been more prompt
in following."

consequences f ' ' J
- I. I he poor would enjoy that rjuality
in society, which the frame of w gov
ernment promises to them, but which
they have never yet enjoyed. ' 1 .
S. The poor class of the . comnunliy
would improve in their social am moral
character, they would acquire 1 senti
ment of independence, and cheritS, love,
and defend theircountry and its ls.
3. That vile speculation whicl fattens
on human misery, would be in gat part
suppressed. '
4. An effectual check would ie given
to that ettensive system of cred,t, which
is often as injurious to him wko gives, at
it is to bim who receives it. '
5r Men would be trusted for thrir hon
esty, and not for their property 1 and in
this way, sound mortality wouM be en
couraged. 6. 1 he agriculture of the state would
Improve rapidly 1 it will derive more en
coursgement from this change in your

nuunikM in -aaaim aI ih umxm can
give. ; A man will have tome heart to
build a good bouse,- and make good
plantation, when he knows, that let him
be unfortunate or imprudent, his house
and pUntation.will remain hiaowo.
7. Emigration would be checked, the
poor. would become endeared to their na
tive state, and not change their certain
condition here, for an uncertain one else
where.
t. People frm other states would emi
grvte to North Carolina.
9. The value 01 our land would greatly
increase. I hi may oe teen on the Vir
