The most striking incident in the in ellirf.ce of the present week is, ihe rrender of Bonaparte t a Captain in c British navj. Thisiwill probably t.e the political existence of a man Lt has sustained a greater part on the itre of Europe than anj potentate, fittJaan or warrior, of miwiern times, fte condodin'-events" of hfe career it passed' with astonishing rapiditjr. j2te short sxicc of four moiiths, we rr beheld hira an cxife, an emperor, ftntite "and a captive. Thee four ruth contain matter not obW of inte-.

Tlie overthrow of rinarfc both now'and in the spring if!at vear, ouht to be clQselj inves ttitef, and the more we discover its ax, the more will the great leson, al3ited bv it, both to otereign ami p Litions," I e understood. Tlie pro ticeht circuiixstancc in bis fall is his iisitiahle ambition. He was furnish 4 it!i power'by the French people, ilkhbe abused -to their destruction & Uoitri He could not content him nf ith the character of the champion ; tfirtedoni; he sought onlj for railitaj nrrcnoHi combined' with sovereign ,i joaer : in his recent temporary pos.- J icson of tlie 'French t'irone, nis at fichmcnt to the nominal rank of inij-e-; rol dicuitr, seems to have been tena- patriotic- party Lift have felt against assisting in his .ileus ; for little aft that partj had to erpect from'the Jlourbiins, still le?s confidence tvas due to 'the idol of a vic lnyisoltlicrv, who seemed resolvcHl fa Jcfend "the national independence of Prince, only that he raiht possess it 4 nentire sovereignly, ana Transmit nis tnwn to his own dynast v. Whether tt patriotic part jr. are able to improve tjccirctimstances of his faU to the be ie5t of mankind; or to the establisli teat of any one of those principles, of r.trty for which tie human race liave ken contending with theprejudiccs of i-ciect and isnorant institutions, is a ccestion of diiTjcnlt solution. But on tiiiining the, appearance' that France it present offers to us, we see no reason 'fetopair. - In the capital of France, and in ma ' j or the provinces," there are large fo iirzn armies. The objects of the" po. ?rtates to whom soch extended forces ;pntain, are security asairrst the ope ndon of popular principles, and per til aisrandixement. They have. loeer, an opponent to the first of t;e objects, which the force neither? fUvonets orartillerr can subdue : thr ittrease of political inoicltdgt. It is I o probable, that if in tleir other 6b it!:ey aim at dividing France, they x rouse'a spirit throughout that cjutrv, which will strenslhen the ar- f ti under Davoust and Suchet, and Urinate another war, of as sanguina "7 character, an that which they hope " liive terfninafed yitli so much-glo- t ' 5 Hera contestof five and twenty the European sovereigns have ceeded in destroying-a government nnnce, which," whatever, was its or sia greatly resembled their own des-tisns- and was. weak exactlr in pro- tt ??dged themcl ves fo counteract. On - contrary, those principles havebe every where more prevalent. is, in receiving the" dominion of w t'russia. Even the miritarr tvmn J.T of Prussia has been obliged to copT Ym tc?, is toTorni a part of. the. '"J ompletely broken Qp :Saxonj T1;1 IVussia have routuallv sarrdnder 1kU wcrerad theit feudal'rights T'Hts founded entirely upon the op 'iun of the people. Thz Nether rri4on"a it approximated in character :;Jthen. They-have gainc.d no victo- fvr fhftv rrinrMtt1p xrhirh at the :flre system, and has engaged her to introduce it into those parts of , ngdom, which have-been so long "erthe despotic anthoritv of Austria lands, in receiving monarch, with au-i uiuniy wienuin over trie I ormer aris tocratic republic. oMlolIandi and the mixed and ambiguous governments' of r lanaers, are to have the representative system oq an'.eitensive plan,' each de puty to be elected by about two thou sand persons. If .some fragments of feudalism are to be found in the new j German confederation, thev are4o be attributed to the complex situation of the states that compose it r and the friends of freedom wijl still have reason to congratulate themselves, that popu lar rights, have, even there, been ac knowledged among al! the discordant claims of a thousand pettv sovereign ties. From Sicily to Korway,- the ngm o me peopie to pariicipatein tneir own government has been asserted,attd under varinus modifications; has been admitted. Tlie great western penin sula of Europe, containing thv super stitious thrones of Spain and Portugal, is the onlv portion of tie most civilized quarter f tne globe, in whrch no effects of the British representative system of freedom appear to have taken root. The consequences of the war in that region against the invasion of Bona parte, have been transcient. The prin ciples which the cortes endeavored to propagate, hail nothing to support them against the return of superstition and despotism. In this general view of the progress of .representative system, ano" of the extensive acknowledgement that the peopleought, through that system, to participate in the government, we have to conclude that the cause of liberty has been eminently vitorious. 'It has ob- j i f . it is possi resent cir- ledffe, . though widely diffused, has not yet re- moved some of the strongest prejudices. Men still reveve the must debasing in stilutums ; the sanctity, of antiquity still ives an awe to ignorance and "to eiTcr : the splendor of conquest, and jt!e enthusiasm of military renown re duced thousands in France, at the mo ment that her freedom w.as making it felf felt in every corner of Europe, to tho servile admiratiiti of a successful general, &.drew to an imperialthrone, that honor which was due to the 'ener gies of a republic' The prevalence of liberty is therefore limited by the want of universal knowledge ; even knnw ledjre itself, from the very imperfec- Itions of human nature, must be alwavs fiuctuatmg ; it may sometimes recede as well as increase ; but the political improvements that accompany that in crease are so many fixed and perma nent advantages gained by mankind. They are the strong holds, the fortress es, of lruan welfare, and it is the bu siness of all those wh a comprehend their value to defendrthem, at all pe riods against the inroads of ignorance. I u this poiut of view, tlie establish ment of the representative system in so many kingdoms of the continent is tru ly important. Let thc. advocates for the ancient family-claim of monarchs rejoice at the restoration of the Bour- bons in France, but the friends of li berty have much more; reason to re jice,tliat the great principle, which is toe jpunaaiion oj au justice, is aomir tcdin tho.e states-whpre those ancient families reigned hitherto, only to op press. . . - ., " . 'l . But while we cpngrat'iafa mankind on thU great victory over feudalism, in what situation is uie repress nraitvt sys tem in' Britain ? Here, where it may almost be said to have had its birth j & whence other nation derive, the exam ple, on which they frame tlie outline of their new institutionshave we preserv ed that fabric in 4tr purity, .whiclrthey so eagerly endeavor to imitate qr.'sur pass r; rrhe nations.of tlje, continent have taken" up this principle of legisla tion at ,a- time, when the. interests of mankind are better " understood, .and when ; the prejudices .'ofsuperstition", prevalent as they are, hve certainly ffssvsway4han,cfirin any -former era oiCnglish7hist9ry? Does it not, there foreliehove ts to watch attentivelv the modifications witlrvf hlcV they" rac ctmtthe representative system, and to attend to alCdie'irapcpvements. that it t is found caiabIe,of receivirig f In post ;ul Uie plans inio' which inese uauonsr have eotercui we nnu tnai me uepuues uilrbe.sent, not by towns,, but either jroportioir of inhabitants. Thjs expe- dieiit'wilKprevent air the evils which we experience from thobvrQ'uh system. .1 ..With us j it is continually made a tool of corruption or contention ; a portion of it is directed by a manager appoint r ed by the administration,while another portion is in the hands of those who are ever demanding the possession of places held by their opponents. . - The, representation of the neonle has in this country been repeatedly proved ! to be the property of an oligarchy'; .the ! absolute inheritance of a few wealthy i men ; and there are instances of its j sale and purchase recorded on the! journals of that very assembly, which ts aupjjuscu m cuiisit ui ine ivpresen tatives of the people of the kinlom. ; Shall we, then, after havimr naid most liberally for the maintenance of a ! war, which with. all its calamities, has i been instrumental to the progress, (f freedom, not participate in the great est of the benefits that are to ensue from its close ? We have oh our own shores that man, illustrious as a War rior, and beneficial in his institutions' as an emperpr, but who perverted the victories of liberty to his own augrran- dizement; we have been greatly instru mental in overthrowing that man 5 and shall we gain no attvantage from the high position which we have attained ? Shall we not show -the world,, that we have really had " the liberation of Eu rope at heart,' and Jhat having seen, with, pleasure, the representative sys tem extending itselt through every, state, we are now actuated by the gen erous spirit of emulation in, the Cause of liberty,, by immediately endeavoring to improve that example, which we have a! ready successfully given to man kind ? blHECf TAX.
