2 Clinse, soon gains on the Fish Ila"-!* e«r,b exerts his utmost to mourn above the other, displaying in th rein'ootres the most elegant <« i • suh-ime aerial evolutions. The un incumbered Eagle rapidly advance-, and is just on t tie point of reaching his oponent when with a sudden scream, probably of despair and ho i est execration, toe latter drops hi fish; the Eagle noising hirnseli for ; moment, as if u> make a more cer tain aim, descends like a whirlwind, snatches it in iiis grasp ere it reach es the water, and bears bis ill gotten booty silently away to the woods.’ The following are Dr. Franklin’s humorous remark?, as contain and in on of h*s letters, concerning the bir._, which was chosen for the em blem of our nation. • Others object to the Bald Ea gle,” says be, “'as looking too muci like a Dindon, or Turkey. For my own part,! wish the Bald Eagle had not been chosen as the representa tive of our country ; he is a bird of a bad moral character; he docs not get his living honestly, you may have seen him perched on some dead dree, where, too lazy to fish for him 4retf, he watubes the labor of th Fwhing Hawk, and when that di ligent bird has at length taker a fish and is bearing it to its nest for the support of his mate and young ones, the Bald Eagle pursues him, and takes it from him. With all this in justice he is never in good case; bu' Jike those among men. wiio live h_« sharping aid robbing, he is general ly poor, and often very lousy. Be sides, he is a rank coward; the little Kingbird, not hieger than a sparrow at'acks him boldly, and drives him out of the district, lie is, therefore, by no means a proper emblem for the brave and honest Cincinnati o! America who have driven all tli Kingbirds from our country; though exactly fit for that order of Knights, which the French call Chevalier il'lndustrie. I am on this account not displeased that the figure is not known as a Bald Eagle, but looks more iike a Tuikey. For in truth the Turkey is, in comparison, a much more r ?pectabie bird, and withal a true oiigmal native of Amer ica, Engles lr u> been found in all countries, but (he Turkey was pecu liar to ours. He is besides, (though a little vain and silly, tis true, hut not the worse emblem for that,) a bird of courage, and would not hesi tate to attack a grenadier of the British guards, who should presume to invade his ‘arm yard with a red coat on.” From the Natio:.*.

The act of March 1, 1823, under the authority ofwhicti the Proclamation Inis been issued, is now publish, and also. As no power was vested by law, in the President, to make the Proclamation prospec tive in tis operation, it will be seen by the Circular, that the President lta» given all the scope lo a friendly disposition towards Great Britain, which lie was left at liberty to take, by excluding from the provisions oi the interdict al! those British vess Is which are either now in the ports ol the United Slates, or which may ar rive previous to the first of July next, in ignorance of the actual ex istence of the prohibition.

Ther • appearstobe trouble among our neighbours in Canada, as will be seen by the Governor’s Speech pro roguing the Legislature. VVe have not followed with sufficient interest the discussions o! that body to know what are the pr cise points of dif ference ; but the popular branch have tuken very decided ground a gaiust the King’s representative, by the refusal of the ordinary supplies. The Canadians a/- too near our l»or ders to be very good subjects. Tne contagion of popular institutions is about as subtle and uucontrollihl , and by those whose craft it endan gers. is deemed as perilous, as that by which physical maladies propa gate themselves. Eve y thing is tending, as it seems to us, to the breaking up, of the old European system of colonizing ; and the Can adas will nut, in our judgment, form an exception tot the general resuh, which at no very distant day will tie witnessed oft he emancipation, (with or w.thout the consent of the mother countries) of all thfl European col onics m the •western hemisphere. Meantime, as to the Canadas, they are gaining strength and wealth by the expenditure which England is making there; and if, as seems not improbable, emigration thither on a large scale, from Ireland shall be en couraged, there will be superadded, a numerous, active, and not ven loyal population, (for those who have only known the oppression of a gov ernment, can hardly cling to it with muen affection) ready on any change or chance, to assert for themselves, and in their own behalf, the doctrines of perfect equality and self-govern ment, of which they daily witness the peaceful and successful opera tion within our borders. The Canadas, must, in the nature of things, at some future day, fall within the orbit of this Union As this is a subject of much importance to this country, we subjoin tiie entire speech:— SPEECH: Gentlemen of the Legislative Council; Gentlemen of the Assembly— “ 1 come to close this session ol the Provincial Parliament, convinced hy the sta'o of your proceedings, that nothing liki ly to promote the public interest can be now expected from your deliberations “ To you, Geitlenien of the Legis lative Council, who have attended your dut es in the Session, 1 offe my thanks on the part of Ids Majes ty, as an acknowledgment of the re gard which, by your presence, you lave shown to the welfare of your country, and also of that proper r s pect which you have manifested for the Sovereign from whom your hon ours are derived. Gentlemen of the Assembly— “ It is painful to me, that I cannot speak my sentiments to you in terms of approbation and thanks. The proceedings of this Session impose upon me a duty, of which, however unpleasant, I will acquit myself as a faithful Servant of my King, and a sincere friend to the Province. “ Many years of contained discus sion on forms and accounts have proved unavailing, to clear up and set at rest a dispute, which modera tion and reason might have speedily terminated. It is lamentable to see that no efforts or concessions of His Majesty’s Government havesucce d ed in reconciling those differences of opinion in the Legislature ; but it is infinitely more so, that differences on one subject should cause a rejection of every other measure which His Majesty ( s Government recommends to your consideration. " The duties expected of you’in this Session were not difficult: among the first was an examination of the public accounts of last year, and a report upon them, whether of ap proval or otherwise. Has that duty been done, so that your country can know the result 1 “ Have you considered the esti mated expenditure for the current year, and granted the supply requir ed in His Majesty’s name ? or have reasons been assigned for the refu sal of them that cau he known and understood by the country ? “ Have the messages from His Majesty’s representative been duly acknowledged, and answered, accor ding to the rules and forms of Parli ament, or according with the respect which is due by each Branch of the Legislature to the others I “ Have the rules or orders of the vroceedings in the House of Assem -Ily been duly attended to, in so fa* as they recognize the prerogativt rights of the crown 1 “ These are questions, gentlemen, which you are now to ask yourselves. Individually, and answer to your con stituents on your return to them. “ These are questions which you are to answer to your own conscien ces, as men who are bound by oaths of fidelity to your country and to your king. “ In my administration of this gov ernment, I have seen seven years pass away without any conclusive ad justment of the public accounts; thus accumulating a mass for future investigation, which must lead to confusion and misunderstanding. In the same years I have seen the meas ures of government directly nppiica hie to the wants of the Province, thrown aside without attention, and without any reason assigned. I have < een the forms of Parliament utterly disregarded ; and in this session a positive assumption of Executive authority, instead of that of Legisla tive, which last is alone your share in the constitution of the state. “ 'Plte results of your proceedings in this session have been, the refu sal of the supplies necessary for the ordinary expenses of government, tho loss of the militia bill, the failure of all provisions for the maintenance of prisoners in your gaols and houses of correction, for the support 0 f in sane and foundlings, and for the es tablishment of education and chari ty. and a total obstruction of local nnd public improvement “ In this state of things, and with this experience of past years.it is now no longer consistent with a proper d'seharge of the high trust commit ted to me, to entertain hopes of a re turn to better reason in the repre sentative branch of this Parliament; but it it still my duty to call on you as.puhlic men, and to call upon the country, as deeply interested in the result, to consider seriously the con sequences of perseverance in such a course. “ I shall conduct the government with the means in my power, with an undiminished desire to de good; hut while I must submit myself to the the interruption of all public im provement, under the authority of the civil govrenment, I will declare my deep regret at such a state of things: I think it right to convey to the country, a free and unreserved expression of my sentiments upon these public misfortunes; and 1 will leave no doubt on the public m nd of my determination to perserve firmly in the path of my duty, with a faithful regard to the rights of mv sovereign, with which are also com bined the best interests of the Pro vince. “It only remains for me now compelled by existing circumstances to prorogue this Parliamen*, what ever may he the inconvenience re sulting to the Province from such a measure.” statesman MONDAY APRIL 9, 19:27.

Yet Greece exists, and tUt noble spirit, that daring courage, and that de votion to liberty and independence which ha* been the admiration of the world, remains y, t unconquered. 3 In her desperate struggle, Greece I,as an pealed to the world for hclp-her besecchin look has been specially directed to America— her daughters have pathetically appealed to our fair countJy vvonven for hclp-to save them from the brutal Jl/ahometan, the Turkish market, and the Moslem's Harem.
