In vain would that man , i claim the tribute of patriotism, who ! , should labor to subvert these great ' , pillars of human happiness; those , firmest props cf the duties of men l , and citizens. The mere politician : ( equally with the pious man ought to ' respect and cherish them. : | It is substantially true that virtue | or morality is a necessary spring of popular government. The rule, indeed extends with more or less force to every species of free government. ( Who, that is a sincere friend of it, can look with indifference upon attempts to shake the foundation of the fabric? place of them. Just and amicable feelings towards all should be cultivated. The nation which indulges towards another an habitual hatred or an habitual fondness, is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray . I front its duty and its interests. Antipathy in one nation against another disposes each more readily to offer insult and injury, to lay hold of slight causes of unbrace, and to be haughty and intractable when accidental or trifling occasions of dispute occur. Hence, frequent collision^. obstinate, envenomed and bloody contests. The nation, prompted by ill-will and resentment, sometimes impels to war the government. contrary to me Desi calculations 01 policy. The government sometimes participates In the national propensity, and adopts through passion what reason would reject; at other times, it makes the animosity of the nation subservient to projects v of hostility Instigated by pride, ambitions and other sinister and permtscuous motives. The peace often sometimes perhaps the liberty, of nations, has been the victim. 80 likewise, a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the Illusion of an imaginary common ' Interest in cases where no real common Interest exists, and infusing into one of the enemies of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter PUBLIC OPINION SHOULD BE EN- , LIGHTENED. Promote, then, as an object of pri- , mary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge. In i proportion as the structure of a government gives force to public opinion, , it is essential that public opinion should be enlightened. Observe good faith and justice towards all nations. Religion and morality enjoin this conduct; and can it ' be, that good policy does not equally j enjoin it? tor" It will be worthy of a free, enlight- j ened, and at no distant period a great nation, to give to mankind the mag- i nanimous and too novel example of p. people always guided by an exalted Justice and benevolence. Who can doubt that In the course of time and things, the fruits of such a plan would highly repay any temporary! advantages, which might be lost by I a steady adherence to it? Can It be that Providence has not connected the permanent felicity of a nation with its virtue? The experiment, at least, is recommended by every sentiment which ennoble# human nature. Alas! is it rendered impossible by its vices? In the execution of such a plan, j nothing is more essential than that* permanent. inveterate antipathies against particular nations, and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded; and that, in VAN LOONS ^thbr^s a cat a jo fadvmt^c;e in navinc," i -tkb ?=amil.>< awam : * 1 if i'd stang-d at*** ? \ ov6r nk.ht wit* th? 1 1 home i'd ncvsr hear \ thft i.a5t of= it ' i i 1 ma v*0wu> be- suspitlo ?r \ anc> ima?c;<n& all soi i of=- thlh<s' tmli wa' . i tt-h5rb 's no one vot/ nave to a<xoont ly-^?v to vmhe.n.g vow cjo c^heuat ' vitliout adequate inducement or jusiflcatiou. It leads also to concessions to the 'avorite nation of privileges denied to Jthers which is apt doubly to injure he nation making the concessions, t>y unnecessarily parting with what >ught to have been retained and by ?xciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious, corrupted. or deluded citizens (who derote themselves to the favorite nation.) facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gliding with the nnnenr ances of a virtuous sense of oniigaLion, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation. As avenues to foreign influence in innumerable ways such attachments are particularly alarming to the truly enlightened and independent patriot. How many opportunities do they afford to mislead public opinion, to influence or awe the public councils! Such an attachment of small or weak, towards a great and powerful nation, dooms the former to be the satelite of the latter. Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to be lieve me fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awakened since history and experience prove that foreign influences is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. But that jealousy to be useful, must be impartial; else it becomes the instrument of the very influences to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation, nad excessive dislike of another, cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite, are liable to become suspected and odious; while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the populace, to surrender their interests. The great rules of conduct for us. in regard to foreign nations, is, in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop. EUROPE'S PRIMARY INTERESTS NOT OUR CONCERN. Europe has a set of primary interests which to us have none or a very remote relation. Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies, the causes of which are essentially foreign to our concerns. Hence therefore, it must be unwise in us to implicate ourselves by artificial ties, in the ordinary vicissitudes of her politics, or the ordinary combinations and collisions of her friendships or enmities. Our detached and distant situation invites and enables us to pursue a different course. If we remain one people, under an efficient government, the period is not far off when we may dery material Injury from external annoyance; when we may take such an attitude as will cause the neutrality we may at any time resolve upon, to be scrupulously respected, when belligerent nations, under the impossibility of making acquisitions upon us, will not lightly hazard the giving up provocation; when we may choose peace or war, as our interest, guided by justice, shall counsel.

DISINTERESTED FAVORS FROM ! ABROAD AN ILLUSION. Constantly keeping in view, that it is folly in one nation to look for disinterested favors from another; that it must pay with a portion of its independence for whatever it may accept under that character, that, by such acceptance, it may place itself in the condition of having given equivalents for nominal favors, and yet of being reproached with ingratitude for not giving more. There can be no greater error than to expect or calculate upon real favors from nation to nation. It Is illusion which experience must cure which a Just pride ought to discard. In offering to you, my countrymen, these counsels of an old and affectionate friend, I dare not hope they will make the strong and lasting Impression I could wish; that they will control the usual current of the passions, or prevent our nation from running the course which has hitherto marked the destiny of nations. But, if I may even flatter myself that they may he productive of some partial benefit, some occasional good; that they may now and then occur to moderate the fury of partv spirit, to warn against the niisdiiels of foreign intrigue, to guard against the impostures of pretended patriot ism; this hope will be a full recompense for the solicitude for your welfare, by which they have been die tated." * I Onion's Good Properties.

These jcint debates were ar- are anged for the purpose of giving the and eople of each county an opportunity sho r> see each and every candidate of- and ?rlng for office in the state, and of infc earing his views on all public ques- peri ions, an object praiseworthy enough ' <ha \ itself. But the joint debates have can liled of their object. r I in the lirst place, the litness of | <an anc'l'ates for most of the state yea flues cannot be judged by listening aga [? a speech of five minutes, or ten, otli lie time generally allowed to candi- era ates other than for governor, nor wit v the ability of a candidate to tell can threadbare Joke, to the dfscomfort fit l f the audience many times.

These men bot lave a right to be heard, and to be gisl ;iven such time as shall be necessary ove o discuss the issues in which the ?si leople are Interested, and the meas- mm ires which they propose. Just now Bfl me of the questions which mu3t be HI letermined by the people is whether ID >r not the state shall go into the IH varehouse business. We must coness that we have little sympathy BH vith the state entering any kind of msiness, yet many able men are ad'ocating this measure as the only nonna r* f Ml/inty oarc* a f f ho nrinoi. >al crop of the South, and saving the armera. In this state we have an ible champion of the measure in Commissioner McLaurin. It is stated hat he may be a candidate for governor on this issue. If he shall be, ivhat information will he be able to ?ive the people as to the measure in he space of the twenty minutes vhich shall be assigned him at the campaign meeting? Mr. McLaurin s an able debater. He is a man of hought, and can make his views tnown on any subject, with a proper ?xposition of his reasons; but he will lave no opportunity to educate the people of the state on this issue, or proposed measure, if he is allowed to rneak in every county in the state inly twenty minutes. And if he is ~equired to make the circuit with the 5=5 ither candidates he will have no op- 2*1 [iortunlty to speak at other times and p in other places. p For the reasons stated the joint p iehates by candidates have developed ^ into nothing 3hort of unlawful assem- T t>lages in which the principal thing " to do is to sling mud, and in most ^ cases one side has been as much to blame as the other. We had a sick- p ening spectacle last summer.
