to excite n panic, and ere the enemy supposed
the sword of vengeance was yet unsheathed,
Col. Leavenworth, with a force well equip-
ped and provided for at all points, penetrated
their trackless wilds, and in the heart of the
offenders* country, smote him with a blow,
that effectually hushed the cry of the war-
hoop along the Missouri frontier.
Whenever military life failed to present
him whh occasions for active and important
usefulness, Gen. Leavenworth's engrossing
desire was to return to civil pursuits. Un.-
dcr the influence of this feeling, he came to
Washington last Winter, and took his admis-
sion as Attorney and Counsellor in the Su
preme Court of the United States. But his
further views in that direction were arrested,
by the circumstance ot the general command
of the-southern wing of the army being con.
ferred upon him, at this time. Although his
constitution was somewhat broken by the se
verities of former campaigns, and although
Fort Jesup, on the western confines of Lou
isiana, was to himself and his interesting lady
and daughter, a scene of privation and expo
sure, he nevertheless repaired to it with alac-
rity, ad being a position which afforded him
the best opportunity for arduous and benefi
cial employment in his station. This section
of the service lmd again assumed both inter-
cst and importance. A corps of mounted
men, with the gallant Col. Dodge at their
head, had been raised for the purpose of pro
tecting the Indian nations which the Govern-
jnent had translated to this region from Geor
gia, Alabama, and Mississippi, as well as the
native Usages, against the predatory Paw
nccs; and of giving security to our overland
commerce with Santa Fe against the freeboot
ers of the Camanche tribe. This cnivalric
little band was attached to Gen. Leaven
worth’s brigade. To aid their operations, he
loft his head quarters, and advanced into the
recesses of tho Indian country beyond the
western border of Arkansas; and when the
cavalry broke up their quarters at Fort Gib
son for their summer campaign, the General
conducted the expedition in person to the
mouth of the False Ouischita. His farther
progress was arrested by disease, which spar
ed him ucithcr strength nor time to reach his
family; but suddenly closed the career of

DESTINY.
The future Destiny of the World.
—By M. DeChateaubriand.—Europe is
fast hastening to Democracy. What is
, France but a republic, fettered by a director?
Nations have outgrown their swaddling
cloths ; they have attained their majority,
and pretended that they have no longer need
of guardians. From the time of David down
to our days, kings have been at the head of
affairs—it seems now to be the turn of the
people. Tho short exceptions of tho Greek,
Carthaginian, and Roman republics, do not
change the general fact of the political state
of antiquity, viz. that monarchy was the es
tablished condition of society, all over the
globe : now, all socitics abandon monarchy,
or at least monarchy, such as we have hith
erto known it.
The symptoms of tho social transformation
abound. In vain do we attempt to recansti-
tute a party for the absolute government of
one man ; the elementary principles of this
government are not to be found ; men have
changed as well as principles. Though
facts sometimes appear to oppose each other,
they nevertheless concur towards the same
result, like the wheels of a machine, which,
turning in opposite directions, produce a com
mon action.

cessary liberties, by detaching themselves

their pedestal, might transmit to their deeen.
dants, for a longer or shorter period, their
hereditary sceptre, reduced to proportions
measured by the laws. France would have
more calmly ensured her happiness and her
independence, by keeping a child who could
not have made of the days of July, a shame
ful deception ; but nobody understood the
event. Kings persist in keeping what they
cannot rotain ; instead of descending gently
J»y an inclined plane, they expose themselves
4o the danger of falling into the abyss ; mon
archy, instead of dying a glorious death, full
■of honors and of years, runs the risk of be
ing flayed alive—a melancholy mausoleum at
Venice contains only the skin of an illustri
ous general. The countries least prepared
for liberal institutions, such as Spain and
Portugal, are impelled to constitutional move
ments. In these countries ideas outstrip men.
■France and England, like two mighty batter,
tog-rams, shake, by reiterated blows, the
■crumbling ramparts of ancient society. The
boldest doctrines on property, equality, and
liberty, arc proclaimed morning and evening,
in the face of monarchs, who tremble behind
-a triple line of suspected soldiers. The del
uge of democracy i s gaining upon them—
they ascend from story to story, from the
ground floor to the roof of their palaces,
whence they will cost themselves into the
waves that will swallow them up.
Tho discovery ol printing has changed the
conditions of society ; the press, a machine
which cannot now be broken, jvill continue
to destroy the ancient world till it has form
ed a new one. Printing is only the creating
word of all powers; the word (laparole) ere
ated the universe; unhappily the word (le
Verbc) in man partakes of human infirmity
it will mingle evil with good, till our fallen
nature shall have recovered its original puri
iy '
Thus tho transformation brought on by the
age of the world will take place : every thing
is calculated on this plan ; nothing is now
possible but the natural death of society, as
at present constituted, which must lead to its
regeneration. It is impiety .to contend with
. the angel of God, to fancy wc shall arrest
the designs of Providence. Behold from this
elevated poiqt of view, the French revolution
a people? The former state of society perish-'
ed with the Christian policy from which it is
sued. At Rome, the government of a man
was substituted for that of the law by Caesar;
they passed from the republic to the empire.
The revolution now proceeds in a contrary
direction ; the power of the law takes the
place of that of man ; we pass from royalty
to republicanism. The era oi the people
has returned; it remains to be seen how it
will be filled up,
Frst of all, Europe must be equalized on
the same system ; we cannot suppose a rep
resentative government in France, and abso
lute monarchies in its neighborhood. But
to effect this, it is but too probable that we
figure in it, for there you will remain!

Secondly—Precautions,
Great care should be taken as regards
clothing and diet; flannel should be worn next
to the skin, especially over the abdomen and
loins; avoid overloading the stomach either
with food or drink; vegitables and fruit should
be abstained from; suppers very injurious,
as the disease most generally attacks at night.
In case of costiveness, take 2 grains of Blue
Pill and 2 of Rhubarb. Avoid Salts, Senna,
and all drastic Cathartics, as their fatal effects
have often been seen.
Treatment of Jfie Premonitory Symptoms.
It is a fortunate circumstance for mankind
that we have some premonition in this fatal
disease. In almost every case of Cholera,
the attack is preceded by diarrhoea, which
continues in most cases from 12 to 24 hours ;

common error of giving a cartharric; it will
certainly hasten the victim to the grave. The
following preparation was used by the writer
of this article, with great success in this stage
of the disease, viz. Prepared Chalk three
drachms; Cinnamon water 6 oz; Paregoric
1-2 oz ; Gum Arabic 2 drachms; white Su-
gar 2 drachms—rub these well together in a
mortar, and give one wine glass lull every
1-2 hour, until the diarrhoea ccaser*—fomen
tations, by means of flannel wrung out of
mustard and warm water, must be applied to
the abdomen.
First Stage of attack.
When the purging and vomiting become
violent, attended with spasms, and intense
thirst, if in a robust and strong person, and
the pulse will admit, bleeding would be advi-
sable; give an Emetic of 2 table spoonfuls
of table Salt, a tea spoonful of Mustard, to
1-2 pint warm water, to be taken in two do-

Tricks of tiie Nullifiers.—We under,
stand that is was asserted the other day at a
candidate for
candidate for
the state legislature,—that no law prescribing
a Test Oath had ever been enacted by the
nullifying legislature of South Carolina; and
that all that had been done on this subject,
was a mere recommendation from the con
vention, that the oath of office should be chan
ged in an unimportant particular!
We also understand that at the same place,
it was denied that the judges whose late de
risions are upholding the Indians in their
resistance to the laws of this state, are nulli-
tiers!

falsifying the records of history, wc think it

“If property alone were in question, will A ' nd) if this should not be deemed suffi-
it not be touched ? will it remain distributed | ciently explicit, I should be willing to say,
as it now is ? A society in which individu
als possess an income of two millions, while
others are obliged to fill their mean dwellings
with heaps of filth, in order to collect worms,
which worms, sold to the fishermen are the
only means of subsistence of these families,
which are themselves aborigines of the dung
hill ; can such a society remain stationary,
on such foundations, and amidst the progress
of ideas ?
“ But if property is touched, immense con
vulsions will ensue, which will not be effected
without bloodshed. The law of blood and
of sacrifice meets us every where. God de
livered up his Son to the cross, to renew the
order of the universe. Before a new law
shall have issued from the chao9, the stars
will have many times risen and set. Eigli
teen hundred years which have elapsed since
the Christian era have not sufficed for the ab-
olition of slavery; but a very small part of the
Evangelic mission is yet accomplished.
These calculations do not suit the impa-
tience of the French : in the revolutions which
they have effected, they have never admit-
that neither the state of things now existing,
nor that which existed in 1832, would justify
revolution, or the risk of it. All this would

When candidates turn their backs upon
truth, and seek to carry their elections by re
lating the most palpable absurdities, we think
it high time that all the lovers of truth should
turn their backs upon them.
When candidates for high, responsible offi
ces, so far insult the good taste, and sense
of propriety, of the respectable portion of the
ses, in the intervals of 15 minutes, to be re
peated until the patient vomits freely—apply
cups or leeches over the whole abdomen, and
when removed, apply a largo blister. For
the cramps use a lininment of Turpentine and
red Pepper, well rubbed on the parts affect
ed, with a hard brush—for thirst give small
pieces of ice. If the purging and vomiting
have been arrested by the above treatment,
give 20 grains of Calomel, divided into 2 do-

Engagement with the Pawnees.—Xo
official intelligence has been received at the
War Department, of the battle between the
United States Dragoons and the Pawnees;
of which the following account's given jo
the Arkansas Gazette. No doubt, howevtf,
is entertained of the truth of the statemes.
From the enterprising character ol the IV.
mandcr of the Dragoons, Col. Dodge, it was
to have been expected that he would either
bring the predatory tribe to subtr.it to relin
quish their captives, or take the chances oi
war.—Globe.

Desperate engagement between tdi
United States Dragoons and Pawnee In
dians.—By a gentleman from Washington
county, wo learn that the U. States Dragoons
have recently had a bloody fight with the Paw
nee Indians, in which the latter lost 80 kil
led and 150 prisoners. Our informant de
rived his information from a young man who
was at Fort Gibson when the prisoners vert
brought in under the escort of a detachment
of the Dragoons. The remainder of the 1-
S. forces belonging to the exploring p^J
were left in pursuit of tho Indians. Th ;
Pawnees are said to have fought desperately,
and to have killed eight of the Dragoons-
Several Osage prisoners were retaken at w
same time, from whom it was pretty satisfc
torily ascertained, that the young man whoe
the Pawnees took from the Rangers, last sum
mer, had been killed. These are the o;d;
particulars that our informant was able to“,
lect. To-day’s mail, or that of SatureJf
next, we hope will furnish the details of t®
affair. ' .
As the Pawnees have hitherto maintain
ed their supremacy in the boundless prairie*
of the west, it is to be hoped that the drub
bing which they have received from the Doj
goons will have a good effect on them, * nu
teach them not only to respect our
when trading among them or passing through
their hunting grounds, but to be less trouble
some to the neighboring friendly Indians.-
