“ Head quarters, Bayonne, A pi il 5.”
|t appears to le the opinion that no efli-
ient resistance was expected bclwen Bay
oii’ie and Madri I. At the latter place a Rf.-
0E>rt was to bo established, to act in the
name of Feidm
aim*. The A Ihe
r . j jeenns and advocates of such a measure has
failed (by considerations of a peisoual na
ture) to effect the desirable end, it is but just
to compliment that mind which siiail devise
a plan to reconcile personal and political
considerations, in ameliorating the condition
of a very large claw of the population of our
country. Tlie specifications of (his plan
have been presented to your readers in con
nexion *vuli tlie proposition itself. It is to
impose such a tax upon the five people of
colour (commencing ut an caiJy vge, and
gradually increasing mud ihe prim* of life
has passed, and then a* gradually decreasing
till the boddy powers hive bet omo ineffi
cient) as will enable them to be removed
(mm tills cLiiuhy, to another, aud settled
down upon a property of their own, at their
own expense—the funds for this purpose be
ing drawn annually from the avails of their
own labour, hy legislative authority.. Their
| removal from (hit country shall be, not an
,v arbitrary measure, but one of their own
, choice—and the great inducement offered
them to adept this measure, w ill be the con-
■ siderable sum of money accumulating or
altt?ady accumulated by them, and placed to
their credit and subject to their u*e and con-
troul in the event of their actual removal.
In case tlie persons should not choose to re
move, a bind is by this plan yearly accumu
lating, to be appropriated for the suppoitof
the individual who ha* paid it in, whenever
infirmity bom natural or accidental causes
shall render him unable any longer to la
bour for his support. Thus the community
i will be relieved from the obligation imposed
| by moral law, of supporting this class of our
! population, whose ignorance arid wickedness
J most commonly bring them to want at an
] early period of life, and whose habitual in-
Oullintsof apfon auxiliary in somt mras■ ( |ol-n<.e induces them to tl.ie.erj for obtain-
tire to Ihe Colonizing Sorirly of the Uni■ | j, lg the means of subsistence. I will sup

afford ample meins for their transportation

they shall bo able to sustain tfiemselve*.

the tax be annually increased percent,

Paris, Jan. 10.—The speec h of tlie Pres-
dent of the United States, on opening the
new Session of Congress, is even more inter
esting than the speeches pronounced nil that
Immovable as
a rock which braves tlie waves that storm
around it, the government of the United
Slates views from its safe position the tem
pest by which the whole of South America,
Hilda paitof Europe, are desolated, and Ihe
tliieatening clouds which are,even now, ac
cumulating over the remainder uf our con
tinent.
What a picture Ibis growing world pres
ents to our contemplation I flow it inno
vates the hearts ol those disgusted v. ith tht
miseries of Europo ! A revenue of 100,000,-
000, (francs) without direct taxes; winch
leaves a surplus of 12 or 15,000,000, after
all lb.- expenses of government aro paid ;
an army levied from tlie midst of the native
citizens of the country, which weighs neither
on its population nur treasurv, ami offers no
dangers to its liberty ; the muiitime fiontieis
ol the slate receiving, all at ouee from art,
those defences uliie.it nature has left them
unprovided sntli; a population incit-asiii,-,
witlio.it end and without fear on n territory,
which fur ages m conic, will admit ofits in
crease ; a 11.ig which waves over every se t ,
tlm arts uf manufacturing industry develop
ing themselves every day on a null which tn-
looked on as only adapted tu lire toils of ag-
licultuie. Such is tho picture which is of
fered to us by the United States of America
in the forty-filth year of their existence as
a nation.
And » hence so many blessings? From na
tional institutions, whose free and tmural
action is not impeded by those particular
and individual interests which, elsewhere
openly attack, secretly undermine, or artful
ly alter and disguise them.
The executive head of the government of
Ihe United Statts had to express his viesvs
on those deeply interesting circumstances,
in which both Europe and America are now
involved. With what gravity, with svhat ex
quisite judgment and foresight, he has done
it ! How every tiling is classed in his speech
with clearness and precision ! Ilis words are
those of truth, of ri nson, of justice, and uf
humanity.
South America—viz. tlie new States of
South America (he says) are now stroiqy
enough to rest tut svliar they bad obtainsd.
To continue a contest w ithout any iinpes of
obtaining an object, would bt both inhuman
and unjust. The whole question uf Ameri
can Independence is comprised in tho-e fevy
words.
The first of any government, the United
States have proclaimed their wishes lor thr
successful issue of the. noble struggle in
which the Greeks are engaged ; they havu
found in another hemisphere, sentiment*
which would have honored tliuse who ur*
nearer to (hem, and owe, perhaps a greater
debt of gratitude to their ancestors.
Whilst Km.ipe is filled with declamation
against the revolutions of Spain and Portu
gal, America sees only in those great events,-
an improvement in the condition of a partut
the human race, to which her own ciiil.l-eu
belong; -.he felicitates her brothers on hav
ing acquired the blessings of a new and free
existence at a cheaper r ate than she did hei-
sell. But the Cong ess which now sits to
dei t ie on the fate of Spain, and judge its
institutions, will not sit at s', ashtngton.
The Albe L i Meunais, A> lulle de JoulT
roy, would nol even be listened to in tire cab
inets nr 1 hurrhfs of a plain people, of sober
good acme. “It it a maxim sacred to our
eoveniment and people,” says the President,
“ tliat every independent nation lias the
right of improving its ow n institutions, and
that no one lias any rigid to interfere in
this subject.” The “ Letters from St. James,"
(a wurk of JI Chateauvieux) have nevel
of such privileges to his surviving family as
hemty hive rejected himself, tliat they might
enjoy them.
Benevolent and humane as the purposes
of eoloi tzatton may lie, it can never be ef
fected hy other means than such as are inde
pendent of individual subscriptions amongst
people who are not immediately interested
hy th* measure. For this end, tlie objects
of interposition—those loirneUiatcly imir-
tsted in its execution—must be made to
raise the means of transportation and settle
ment. This is no hardship, for those who can
support themselves,should nut be suffered to
depend upon bounty, even though they
should have no other aim than daily subsis
tence. It has been strongly urged by many
persons against contributions for effecting
the transportation nod colonizing of free
persons ol eoluur, that they are an able bodi
ed portion of our population, yet idle and .Its
