SAVANNAH, June 27, 1806
THE expedition of Miianda, 3nd the
reparations for his departure from the
urt of New-York, have occasioned much
pquiry among the American people ;
arious conji&ures have been made upon
,his singular tranfadion. When the fir it
liagiftrate of a country is charged of sane,
tioning fuoh an expedition, it is natural
that it should aroufethe curiosity of the
people ; that the memorials of Smith
nd Ogden tended to implicate the Prefi
dent,l&c: is evident ; that fucb impli
cation is abase calumny, there is
no doubt. Artful and ddigning men
■ave long been endeavouring to blall the
ur fame of the officers of government;
■at, when a large majority of the people
e in favor of their proceedings, what a
'ails the flanderof these disappointed few?
we boa! of no nobility—God forbid we
ever lhou!d.j A
ernment is our choice—and may we ever
keep the helm of which,out of the hands
cf such men as would opprefa the poor.
The debates, m Congress upon the
Memorials of Smith & Ogden, w ill be
found in this days paper; we trull they
wil 1 be perused with auention by evciy
candiu reader—they through much light
up’ a the fuljedt of Miranda.
The following Communication, r
---trafted from the Political Obfer-vatory,
is well adapted to the prefeat day. The
Anniverfsry ot that glorious event which
gave to these United States, a free and
independent Handing among the nations
of the is fail approaching, f.e
publicans ! cn the annual return of this
day, it behoves you to bear in grateful
remembrance the toils of the Patriot and
Soldier o! ’76 —it was him who obtain
ed us the privilege—it is to him we are
indebted for the blefliegs of liberty—
there are yet feme among us who faced
the foe in the “ hour that tried men’s
fouls”—vvhefe hearts, on the return of
this Anuiverfary, mull sparkle with en
thusiasm.
COMMUNICATION.
“ In all nations, famous for the great
ness and duration of the r power, whole
customs have been handed down to us by
fciftory, certain days were feta part for
the celebration of particular events.
The day on which a v.dtory was gained
or a tbreatning danger averted, at its
annual return, was we ! comed by thepeo
pie with joy and consecrated by them to
ifelbvity and to demonllrations of their
gratitude to the Gods. At such times
the actions of their heroes were recount
ed, and their brtalls glowed with an en
thufiallic desire to immitate them t the
calamity which cnce impended, is recoh
ledted, and ti.ey are convinced tlist tven
in the mofr dc r perate iituations it is folly
to yield to despair above all, that the
celclirial spirit which once actuated the
citizens—that love ot country and of
glory which impelled their forefathers to
cclions heroic and godlike, is revived
in their bt calls and prtferved from ex
tinction.
“ Among the Hebrews, the ordinance
of the psfFover was inducted to com
memcrate their deliverance from Egyp
tian bondage. The day cn which they
palled from slavery to freedom was made
the firft. of their year, and it was enjoin
ed in their religious code that it fltould
be obfer/ed with lblcn.nity to the latell
generation. Among the Greeks and
Romans fead3 and games alrnolt with
eut number were obierved, all of which
were inltitufed to preserve the remem
brance of fome important event—toicel
ebrate the virtues of fome patriotic hero
or to keep alive ar.d invigorate the spirit
of patriolifm and love of glory. To
their influence may be aferibed the ele
ration of those nations to the height of
powei which they obtained and which
they poffefled through such a number of
ages.
“ as this is a free country, and as its
freedom will expire when that spirit ot
patriotism which was the cause of its
birth, and which Ihould be considered
more precious than the perpetual fire
which burned in the temple of Vela,
fliall cease to exist, the greatell exertion*
fliould be made for its preservation. a
proper observance of the auniverfaries of
American independence would contribute
greatly to that erd. At such times let
the people be aflembled—let an orator
whole attachment to liberty is ardent and
whose bosom glows with the facrcd flame
of’76, addrels them—let him transport
them in imagination to those “ times
which tried men’s fouls”—let him ex
plain the realms which impelled us to
war, painting in glowing colors the bles
fing* of liberty, and exposing iu their
native Icathlomcnels, the curies of igno
niaioua finery—let biro relate the glo
rioui deeds of our heroes, descant upon
their patnotifm and virtue, and hold
them up as models for imitation to
the riling generation—lit him fire their
minds with enthusiasm by displaying the
allurements of fame which will.follow,
and is 3 noble—a fufficient reward for
toiling in the (ervice of their country.—
By such means the love of liberty will be
preserved, heroes and statesmen created,
and the country advanced to the height
of glory and power.
_ “ The near approach of the next an
niversary induced the writing of this
communication.—That it will have the
effect intended—that it will cause a more
general celebration of that day than has
been witnefied for several years pall, is
the ardent wiffi of one whole principal
object is the good of his country.

There can be no stronger Droof of the
fitnefs of the decided measures adopted
by the Isft CongreU in regard to Great

j the friends of this policy had predicted*
Our lad accounts from London aflert
j that the decided Hand which we have ta

predion upon the adminiltration and peo

! We ask no ftror.ger proof of this sen
sation than the naiffim of Mr. Etskine.
He i the firlt miuiltcr extraordinary that
the Bbufu Cabinet have ever lent to
this country. This fad is at once a
proof of the anxiety of Great Britain to
have her differences with us quickly and
amicably fettled, and it is an carnell of
the fuceefs of the isegociation.
