FOR THJE ANNIVERSARY OF AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE. “A day, aa hear, of virtuous liberty Is worth a whole eternity in hoadan." ADDISON. When freedom at her heavenly flame Lighted her tufeh, and blaz’d on high, The nations trembled at her name, _ While sounded loud her deathless cry. That Itfaze was seen on vale and hill, t ; ;Ahd brighter grew, as far extended- It glitter’d on in glory still, And in one column firm ascended* And man, awaking at the sight, Shrunk frighted from the clank of chains That bound him in their tyrant might. To servitude and servile pains. The f ragrance of that flame spread round, Abhorrence of bis bonds imparted; Like one aroused from sleep profound, Into new life and hope he'started. He dash’d the yoke from off bis neck, Bright in the sun his falchion gleamed— He peril’d all—success or wreck Determin’d, though his life-blood stream’d. O! then was heard his battle cry, Like thunder o’er the ocean pealing, Re-echoing round the vaulted sky,, And thrilling every heart of feeling. Amazed our fatheia heard the sound, -Swellinglike music, as it came— And hurl’d their fetters to tile ground, And gain’d on Freedom’s page a name. A name! Columbia'^ name alone— Where winds nre blown; or wavesare swelling, That mighty name is lov’d and known; Freedom with her has made her dwelling. GLORVON. - I PROCEEDINGS IN CONGRESS IN RELATION TO THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. On the lOtli of May, 1776, it whs resolved to recommend to the repectivo assemblies and conventions of tho united colonies, where no government sufficient to the exigencies of their affairs hud been established, to adopt such' a government as should, in the opinion of the representatives of the people in particular, and of America in general, correspond with the opinion of tho times, secure civil und religi ous freedom for the present, and transmit them to future ages. A preamble to this reso lution, agreed toon the 15th of May, stated the intention to be totally to suppress tho exorcise of every kind of authority under the British crown. Ou tlie 7th of Juiie, certain resolutions tespecting independency were moved and se conded: On the lOih of June, it was resolved, that a committee shuuld be appointed to pre pare a declaration to the following effect:—- “That tho united colonies are, and of right ought to bo free and independent states; that they uro absolved from all nllcgianco to the British crown; and that all political connexion between them and the state of Great Britain, is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.” On the preceding day it was determined that the com mittee for preparing the declaration should con sist of five; nnd they Wpro chosen accordingly, in tho following order: Mr. Jefferson, Mr, J. Adams, Mr. Franklin, Mr. Sherman, and Mr. R. R. Livingston. On the 11th of June, arc- solution was passed to appoint a committee to prepare and digest the form of a confederation to bo entered inio between the colonies, and another committee to prepare a plan of treaties to bo proposed to foreign powers. On the I2th of June it was resolved, that a committee of congress should be appointed by the name of a board of war and ordnance, to consist of fivo members. On tiie 25lh of June, a declaration of the deputies of Pennsylvania, met in provin cial conference, expressing their willingness to concur in a vole declaring the united colonies tree-nnd independent states, was laid before congress and read. On the 28th of June, tho committee appointed to prepare a declaration of independence, brought in a draft, which was read, and ordered to lie on (lie table. On tho first of July, a ro:-olu:ioiyif the convention of Maryland, passed the 28th of June, authorizing tiie deputioi of that colony io concur in'declar ing Wig un ted colonics freo and independent states, Was laid before congress and read. On the same day congress re'olved itself into a com mittee of the whole, to take into consideration the resolution respecting independency. On thescconfl of July, a lesolut.on declaring the colonics free and independent states, was, on the.same nnd the following days, taken into fur ther consideration. F n.dly, on the 4th of Ju ly, the decimation of independence was agreed to, signed nnd directed to bp sent to tho several nssemblies, conventions, and committees, or councils of safety and to the several command ing officers of the continental troops, and to be proclaimed in each of tho TJnitcii States, and at the head of the army. It. Congress, July 4, 1776. A DECLARATION By the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled, When, in thecourso of human events, it bo- comos_nocessary for ouo poople to dissolve the political bands, which have connected them with another, and to nssumo among the powers of tho earth, the separate and oqual station to which tho laws of nature, and of na ture’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare tho causes which impel them to tho separation. Wo hold theso truths to be self-evident, that all men wero created equal; that they are en dowed by their Creator, with certain unnliena hlo rights; that among, these arc life, liberty, and tho pursuit of happiness. T hat to socuro theso rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the con sent of tiie governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of theso ends, it is the right of tho people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new goverment, laying its foundatioiron such principles, and or ganizing its powers in such form, as to ther shall seem most likely to efiect their safety am happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate tha governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and ac cordingly all experience hath shown, thatni m- kind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by a- bolishing tho forms to which they are accus tomed. But when along train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing in.variably tho same ob ject, evinces a 'design to reduce thorn under ab solute despotism, it is their right, it is their du ty, to throw off such government, and to pro vide new’ guards for their futuro security. Such has been the pationt sufferance of theso .cola* tries, and such is now the necessity which con strains them to ulter thoir former systems of government. Tho history of tho present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated inju ries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states; To prove this, let fucts bo sub mitted to a candid world. He lias refused to assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. Ho Inis forbidden his governors to pass l avs •' of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should ho obtained; and, when so suspended, ho has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the ac commodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of re* iresentation in the legislature, a right incstima- ' de to them, and formidable to tyrants only. Ho has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records, for tho sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance Full h s measures. He has dissolved representative houses rev- eatedly, for opposing, with manly firmness, is invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused, for a Jong time after such dis solutions, to cause others to be elected; where by the legislative powers, incapable of annihi lation, have rciurned to tho people at large for their exercise; the state remaining in the mean time exposed to all :ho dangers of invasion from without, nnd Convulsions within. He lias endeavored to prevent the popula tion of these states; for that purpose obstruct ing iho laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their mi grations hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. fit : He has obstructed the administration of jus tice, by refusing his assent to laws for establish ing judiciary powers: . ' '. *' . Ho has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of thejr offices, and the amount nnd payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.. He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our le gislatures. . Ho has affected to render the military inde pendent of, and superior to, the civil power. He has combined with others to subject, us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constiiution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his as sent to their acts of pretended legislation: For quartering large bodies of armed tro'opt among us: For protecting them, by a modi trial, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on tho inhabitants of those states; • For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world: Mtwwft). -. »• For imposing taxes on us without our con sent: For depriving us, in many cases, of the ben efits of trial by Jury: For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for protended offences: For abolishing the free system of English laws in’ a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries, so as to render it at once nn ox- nmplonnd fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rulo into these colonies: For taking away our charters, abolishing our most vakablo laws, and altering funda mentally die forms of out* governments: For suspending our own legislatures, and de claring themselves invested with power to le- . g sl ito for us in all cases whatsoever. Ho lias abdicated government bore, by de claring us out of his protect ion, and waging war against ns. He lias plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, und ties royed the lives of uur people. He is, at this time, transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny,‘already be gun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy, scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow-citizens, tak en captive on the high «eas, to bear arms a- gainst their country, to become the execution ers of thdir friends and brethren, or to fall them selves by their hands. . Ho lias excited domestic insurrections a- mongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers the merciless Indi an savages, whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, soxes, and conditions: In every stage of those oppressions wo have petitioned for redress in tho most humble terms: our repeated petitions have been answered on ly by repeated injury. A prince, whose cha racter is thus piarked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to bo the trier of a fre® people. Nor have we been wanting in atienuons t®
