For tli* Southern Watchman. THESOLDIBBSOFIUi; KKYOLliIOX OF II More tban Uiree-tbartliiiofa century has passed, since these, then, feeble colonies rose to contend for Independence against the most formidable power under the Hea vens' To-day, few and far between, sink ing. imperceptibly. Into the tomb, very old tnen hallowed by these stirring rominisceu. ecs, totter about, and behold how a sec tional spirit lias visited the mightly Lund of Washington; and how in' one purt the people Are stuggiing tt> renew.the recogni tion of principles for which they toiled and bled. Anarchy, now, makes dim and faint the glories of the past: may we in our younger days yet realize the splendor tbut once gladdened the hearts of those fath ers! The principle of civil liberty lias ever bcon axiomatic with man, and a perpetual animation. It is true, that, if society Com menced with nomadic tribes of men in the form of a patriarchal and benignant insti tution. with those dwelling in cities, and in hatereogenoous communities, it early, from tho potent influence of one type of the ha- man family, the Hammetic, assumed that symbol which consecrated prerogative os the authority and birth-right of one nmn, and perpetuated tho liueuge where the complicity of tho masses with the ruling agency was completely ignored, in the succession of the family. For ages men thought, and contended under the massive weight of tliis despotism, nothing, regard ing the polity of tho State, save the tri umph and rule of some particular Dynasty! The enliro history of the ancient World, with tho exception of the primitive Jewish Theocracy, when God Himself was King, is a tissue of alternate usurpations and foreign invasions and conquests, in -which right was lost in might. “ The first glimmering of Liberty in the ancient Pagan Nations, was seen in Eu rope—when Codrus, one of the monarchs of a State of Greece, contrived to have his life sacrified for the safety of his people, according to an Oracle—when that people declared, in admiration, and reverence of Ids memory, that “none was worthy to succeed Codrus,” and elected two Arehons to govern for a set torm.H Other States of Greece embraced free dom, as the Peloponnesians; ami by the ,'Kcliiun League and the Anipbiclyoniccoun cil endeavoured to prolong popular rights Pul ns the confusion of tho Mythology per mitted no organization of morals ami re!i gion, sufficient to restrain the restlessness and natural impetuosity of the human heart, and interest and ambition, civil wars devastated,, and tho Amphictyous found a head in Philip, Casting our view along tho stream of time, we observe Liberty in Carthaginian and Roman abodes, and in some petty prin cipalities. Of Koine, the most remarkable of ancient Republics, and which, in that character, endured for five centuries, histo ry exhibits two systems of Government that did not clash until the times of the Gracchi, of CaUdine, of dyila and Marius, and of Ctcsar and Pompoy. Tho external or military being despotic, and the intern al or civil popular and pacific, under Tri bunes of the people, who had a retroactive veto on the laws of tho Senate, and of the Consuls. The military, or despotic rela tion was a necessity of .tiro Stale, where a turbulent populace in Rome would abide no distinction of society, and the Consuls contrived to send them as armies to con quer coterminous regions—thus afford ing quiet and existence to the city. This system of the military conqnerred the known world, when finally for lack of new employment, tho Roman arm tell upon their city, and introduced despotism huffier Augustus, five hundred years after the ex pulsion of tho Tarquins. After this subsidence of Liberty in Rome and the ancient World, thefo was a long interval of Monarchy. Tho Christian Er.i hero dated : a Religion entirely devoted to the freedom of man, not merely to the extent of his equality, but of his brethren- ship~-leaving no distinction but that ot the prophecies, which ostracised from the pre sence of their brethren, the Hammonian race. Bat Christianity, in its purity, was not comprehended, or was perverted by a mighty Hierarchy, aucl tho long night ot the middle ages exhibited one tvuin of ab solute Bishops, spiritual Governors, and absolute kings, temporal. Liborty roving on wings like the tireless lluma, or dove from the Ark, found no rest in modern times, until the rise of tho Dutch Repub lic, sent a scintillation that became a per petual flame like the vestal, by example, into Helvetic, and to tho west. Earlier than this date, Luther had begun tho Re formation of the Church, and as Liberty and Religion are inseparable relations, where permanency exists, tho disfranchise ment of man, received an unquenchable spirit. The Catholic Priesthood did not seem to understand the meaning of St. Paul as to “ submission to the powers that be,” when Christ had enjoined neither ec clesiastical nor political superiority, that the submission was duo to tho, office, not to tho magistrate that perverts hia power to tyranny, as it was illustrated in a com mentary by Chrysostom. Under their in fluence,* therefore, the middle ages that suc ceeded primiliyo Christianity were dark— dark! Liberty next,revived in England, and produced a Hamden, a man Macau ley compares to Washington, alone. Tho next demonstration of this spirit was the American Revolution, a manifes tation most tremendous in effect and ten deney. The waves of freedom front our country beat upon the shores of France, set in motion the rtiost terrible of Revolu tions at Paris, Lyons, etc.; led tho way to the dominion of Bonaparte, who gathering the fragment* of distracted France into a colossus, for a time overran Europe with victorious away. From tiiat day to the present there has been a long pause, excepting the successful revolt of Spanish America, which seems to havo been to the freedom, of anarchy, rather than^Tpl'der. From this brief and hasty glance at the biography of Liberty, imperfectly sketched from tho necessity of condensation in so email aspace as a short newspaper article, scenes ".ml vicissitudes transpiring for thousands-of years, we observe that Lib erty, the original birth-right of man, is continually struggling for existence, is kept i a abeyance by a variety of causes, is little, undereloodr—and perverted even by - its votaries. Like Religion, it is colored prlMjM*£g*a&ad no wider in over thin world than that of the one ; nei ther hail the assertion of Liberty before so gigantin an extension. Christianity and .Liberty will go hand in hand, an inspepa- rable link, to crown tho human raeo at the “consummation of all things.” Christian faith and obedience are duty to God.— Liberty is but duty to man. Analyzed to its quintessence the latter implies, only, the morality of doing to every one as we would have everybody to do to ns. What else is liberty f It is the golden rate-of JesusCbrist: Duty to God and duty to man are the sum of onr obligations. How ne cessary to maintain happiness, that we gain the loving of Jeho vah, and let others alone, ns they are to let ns alone ?— Two mighty Angels govern, for good, our World, with various fortunes—the Angel of Religion and tbut of Liberty. When a people can comprehend this better than as a mythical, or as an abstract generality, and impressed with the idea of their re sponsibility to God and man, perform their obligations with patience and persever ance, then only will all see that rara avis— Government by tho people, imprescripta- ble and impregnable; less tottering than our own, more lusting than tho Romans, :»nd more pure than previous and existing examples. Thu last lingering'soldiers of tho Revo lution, therefore, the companions-in-arms of tho man whose fame, like the Pj'rnmid in the Desert, stands alone in altitude and in immortality, in a political light, must he to us objects of appreciating reverence, affection and filial homage. The last sun of their galaxy is sinking into the ocean of time. A few more annual revolutions and the last living vestige of those days will vanish forever! We revere them, not so much because they were soldiers to repel the force of tyrutiny, as because they havo demonstrated, with adamantine solution, a principle of imperishable truth, farught with the welfare of unborn generations; and which Thomas Jefferson has gracefully uttered in tiiat masterly Stutc paper, (the most morally philosophical of political documents,) his first inaugural address, to wit: that, the people can govern them selves: if they could not, have we iound Angels in the shape of other men to govern them,” as Kings/ In other words, if a man be incapable of self-government, how is another capable of governing him t This axiom of civ '* wisdom is carried out by tlie negative proof of that ability in all the Monarchies of the world, which show more of contentions, wars, rapine, abandonment of principle, corruption at home and op pression of tho poor, than has ever char acterized, during the same duration of time, the history of any of the Republics that haveever existed without the despotic authority of the milita.

Think, kind reader, profoundly upon this. You may indeed imagine it a very trivial matter to spend a few “ leisure hours” weekly as “ recrea tion,” at some place of pastime, expending a few surplus dimes, to add to your festi val fruition; hut I kindly beseech yon to halt. What will ail this likely add to your material benefit? Remember, time once lost, is lost forever. Life is short; and would you over achieve anything, whether in accumulating wealth, or storing your mind with useful knowledge, that you may ameliorate the condition of those who sur round you, and build up and fortify the reputation of j our country abroad, you must be sure to save the fragments. When iroperly considered, men have no leisure tours. True, the relaxation from certain business pursuits may, to the casual ob server, present such, but when rightly con sidered, in accordance with tho social, moral and divine laws of onr nature, this merely opens an aperture through which other developments oan be made, from oth- resonrees, such as reading some inter esting book, that a chance hitherto has not permitted, or acquiring new ideas in some way. Yonng men, especially tho orna ments of society, the bright, confiding hope of their country, should always lot some thing useful pervade their minds, together with the cultivation of virtue, economy and indefatigable perseverance, to fully de velop their intellectual, moral and physical condition. With a strict regard to this, most any will gradually but surely rise to the brightest acme of their susceptibility. ft MtSs A CARD. . method to inform onr customer? and lie, that on account of the delay and un- ollectin^ our hills, and the derangement r terms, after January 1st, 1S61, trill be reept special contracts. ——arf'mif J e begins... h „ , —, ctMst, and Jan. 1st - - r; . — -—-“7 ninety days, and if payment is e charged. .. - ; ,- ~ , our siutore thanks to all ourold friends and who hare patronised ns so long nud liberally, and we solicit a continuance of their favor*, pledging wtrsclrea to ail reasonable effort* to promote their iu- (Dec26) T.
