From the foregoing statement it will be
perceived that there is sorbe inequality of
representation, the unrepresented frac
tions in some States being larger than in
"hers ; but leaving that aside1, let us stat-i
a possible case, for whatever is possible
mJay happen. A majority! of the whole
number of Representatives is 107, and can
pass a bill through the lower House, or pre
vent one from passing. 1 Now suppose Mas
sapusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, N.
Xjprk, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky,
should elect by bare majorities 107 Repre
sentatives to Congress, :(th! number they
trei entitled to,) for the exp ress purpose of
advancing the interests of hose majorities
by jhe imposition of taxes Vhicti would fall
together upon the rest of he community;
could not this, under our present system be
accomplished? And jwhal would be the
resuiiT vny, mat seven states should
control the destinies of the other seventeen,
and supposing mat these latter should b
unanimous in opposition to the views of the
outers, the monstrous ! jane maly would be

JOHN LEE THE SA1LOIV
; John Lee, oue of the race of menalmos:
sui generis, was well known to the Ijcturer
several years ago, and his reputation stood
among his fellows as the! bravest of the
brave. He was born in Marblehead, a
place renowned in the annals of our country,
for producing a succession of Mariners of
the boldest, hardiest, and most muscular,
and above all, the most humane that any
country or age could boast. That place
had the honor of ? building the first ship of
any considerable size; that was constructed
in our country, the one mentioned in the
first part of this lecture, and of encouraging
the cod fishery in the early days ot our his
tory, when the business was hardly known
except in the vicinity uf that place.! Lee
was bred a saiior, and from his talents and
connexions, soon came. to the command of
a vessel. He was engaged, at the com
mencement of the war, fo.' his connexion,
the Tiaceys, merchants of real distinction
at that time, as captain of one of their pri
vate armed vessels. He first sailed in a
vessel carrying six iron guns, with several
wooden' ones for a show ; and during this
cruise he took a heavy armed merchant
man, which he saw just before night, but
his vessel was so low in the water that she
was not discovered by the merchantman.
Leecame near his enemy when it was dark,
with indistinct li'gjht extending beyond the
bowsprit and from the stern of his vessel,
which gave her the appearance of great
length. The English captain thinking it
were idle to contend with such force as he
thought her from this stratagem, struck his
colors, and as his men came on board of
Lee's small vessel by boat loads, they were
secured ; but when the English captain
came on board, & saw how he had been de
ceived, he attempted to kill himself but WcS
prevented by Lee, who by gentle treatment
soothed his wounded feelings. Lee had
in his composition, the pure elements of a
aaiLrt a Aa cnrvBttiuuon, , great activity,
and a fearlessness that was the admiration
of a'L He was as generous as brave, and
shared his honors wiih all who acted with
him, and his wealth with every one who
ought him. At one time, Lee was a pri
soner in a murky dungeon, for what was
called insolence after being captured ; at
another lime, flushed with victory, over
foes of twice his power, jhe was active in
showing his kindness to the captured. One
day he was found rolling in riches, and on
another with clothes hardly sufficient to
kep.ofT the blast "5 thus he passed through
the revolutionary conflict; but there was
i'Ver a moment when his genius cowered,
or his spirits were broken. If ever he
changed at ail, it was that his pride increa
sed as his fortunes were unpropitious ; and
he grew more forbearing when in the flow
of prosperity. For many years he poised
himself on his honesty and good intentions,
and swore away ail religious thoughts ; but
n the latter part of his days he became an
enthusiast in religion ; and his zeal in prai
sing God equalled his fury and his fight ;
but time, religion, and reflection, gave a
new form to his cast of character; and the
nee boisterous captain, whose oaths were
louder than the northern blast, became so
meek, so mild, so patient, so exemplary,
that it was a study and a delight to see and
hear him. When the most cruel fit of the
gout was upon him, and nature was sinking
with her agonies, he had the sweet serenity
of the saint ; and the eyes which once flash
ed the fire of indignant and indomitable
pride, were now beaming with the radiance
of heaven inspired hope; such changes.
there are in the lives and in the character
of men. Knapp's Lectures
