In what resnect would the Federal party change the ^Foreign or Domestic policy of the government as no W ad- This is the question, a resolution of which will enable jus to analyse the merits of the Federal pretensions to po- " PU \VoukltLy change the Foreign policy of the United ~ sta tes> If so, in what respect? At peace with all the world; we shoul&like to bear with what power the peace partv would havetis go to war. Would they have us pick a quarrel with Great Britam, or break our truce Lh vizier!' Dr, not belligerently inclined, would tuey have us recal our ministers and consuls abroad, am* - adopt the terrapin policy they have so much reprobated? If not, we cannot see what variation of our general poli cy they would desire. Some of the. Federal prints have burned tlie commercial convenUon with Great Britain re- ' cen tiv concluded as detrimental to oursluppmg interests. Be it'so, though we deny it, the -Federal party could not annul that treaty, unless by war, if in possession of all the powers of the state. Its alleged disadvantages we do not admit, believing that every disadvantage commerce labors under is due to the present state of Europe; to the sub jugation of-France and the minor powers to the conspi racy of kings, for whose victories, (be it ever remember ed) the Federal party held splendid festivals, and pro faned their temples witii paricidal ceremonies. Not be ing able of ourselves to divine, we should be y glad to be informed, m/vrhat manner the Federalists ijmiild, had they the power,' change the foreign policy of the government. The avowal of a disposition to change the foreign poli. «v-of the government, would be death to all the hopes of federalism. But perhaps they have an eye to the in. ternal policy of the government. What s-.iv they on this head? Are the laws not equitable; are they too lax in their discipline, or are they ill-administered? Is there any reason to believe that a material-change in them would be an improvement? If there is let it be shewn. The people, we believe, wo- ldneither agree to repeal the Na tional Bank Law, and thus destroy tlie ortlv barrier which promises any effectual resistance to the inundation of woythless paper money, nor to abolish all the internal taxes; nor yet all the taxes on imports—to all which pub lic measures the federal papers rather hint than speak dislike. If the federal party should ever again become the majority, something they must do to distinguish the commencement of their administration;’Regarding which,, were this the moment, they would be in a-most whimsical perplexity. But something must be done. Would they at this juncture, following tlie example of Great Briain, revive their favorite alien law? Such things have been, in tubes when emigration was less frequent, and such things might be again, if power-changed hands. Or would they revive the Sedition law; that nefarious instrument of power to stop the mouths of those who uirtke free to discuss die' conduct of their public servants? If no lead ing measures be or can be designated that th# public interest require, and which have been neglected or wilful ly omitted by the republican administration, we must conclude that no material change in the iatertial policy of the United States is desirable. If the federal party seeks materially to change the po licy ot tjie government, weaver, that no stronger argu ment ca^ie opposed to their clamorous importunities for office: because 110 material change is required bv the public interests, and change,for thesake of change, would involve the country in a disastrous succession of dange rous expedients. There is one species of claim always set up bv the fe deral party', in the nature of prerogative, the infallibility of which we take leave to deny-. With a -nresumtion which would subject an individual to the contempt of society, they assume to themselves all the talents, all the wealth, and, with still less modesty, all the honesty of the country. Such arrogant pretensions, whilst in the minority, give a-foretaste of the haughtiness with which they would lord it over the people, (by virtue of these high attributes!;) if again entrusted with power. Virtue is the prerogative of no party; talent are peculiar to no complexion. To wealth, the federal party may possibly sustain their claim; but m the country wealth confers no political privileges, whatever other charms it may- have. We wonder that a party, boasting all tlie. talents of the ' contry, should be abie to devise no better argument than their own self sufficiency, why they shoald be preferred over those who clvuse to let their actions, rather than their words, prove their merits and speak their praise. Is it true, as the federal prints assume, that, that party_ has personally proved themsejves more honest or more capable than those, whom they pursue with all the viru lence thus engendered in the effervescence ofeuvyaud ambition? We deny it, ip ths name of the people. The proof rests with our opponents; and it becomes them tot uMbld to-,our incredulous eyes tho-roLl of high merits and vast achievements which give them a superior- right to tlie confidence of their fellow-citizen*. Our reftectipns haYe brought us to these general con clusions: That the’ federal party,cannot shew in what Aspect they would ameliorate, in any important degree* or many degree, the domestic, or foreign policy of the government; that, if changertJhly be their object, it is a ^Wson why their pretentions&iquld fee decisively reject ed; and that, if they cannot promise any improvement in our national affairs, there is no reason, of a personal na- Baltimouk, September 4. We apprehend there is some mistake in the following article, which we extract from a London paper: • “A bill has passed tlie British parliament authorising fhe exportation of machinery for the erection of a mint in the United States of America. The bill was introduc ed by Mr. Vansittart, the chancellor of the exchequer.” Why the chancellor of the exchequer should move such a bill, we are at a loss to imagine. The English it is well known are peculiarly jealous on the subject of their manufacturers, and they use every exertion to-pre- vent them from coming to' tlie United States. It is pro bable that this bill provides for tlie erection of a mint in in the British proviiices in north America. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT. On Tuesday evening, as Miss Elizabeth Crawley, aged 19, daughter of the late D. Crawley; was in the act of dipping a pail of water, she lost her balance, it is pre sumed, and fell into the cistern, and before assistance could be rendered, sunk to the bottom. In about five minutes offer the accident happened, her body was recov ered, and every means employed to restore animation; but, we are are sorry to say, without success. ANECDOTE. While the emperor Napoleon was walking In the garden of the Thuilleries with tlie empress Maria Loui- sa, and some officers, the empress accidentally stumbled, and an officer to preserve her from falling, caught, her in his arms—when Napoledn peevishly remarked, “hav’nt you learnt to walk?”—“Yes!

A man whose energy of mind and character has been always applied to tlie benefit of life country—and whose long and acute sufferings made hardly any alteration in the vivacity of his manners and the powers of bis superior intellect: General Alston was aged thirty-eight years. W'hile his public conduct has been conspicuous as a republican—all parties huve been ready to acknowledge his talents and genuine patri otism. The character of such a man will deserve a more particular notice.-—Charleston Patriot. MISSOURI AND ILLINOIS. By the politeness of a valued correspondent, we have been favored witii a copy of the following interesting letter for publication. It contains much useful informa tion relative to an important section of our country, with which we are, as yet, but little acquainted.—Buffalo Journal. The following is a copy of a letter from Rufus Easton, esq. member of the house of representatives from Mis souri Territory, to the honorable William Hunter, sena tor from Rhode-Island; dated “Washington City, April 30, 1816. “Sir—Although I have not had the honor of a personal acquaintance with you, “what I have seen, permit me to relate.” It was long ago foretold that the western coun try would become the happiest and most abundant part of the United States—where the indigent may require independence, and the wealthy multiply their treasures beyond the visions of ambition, or the dreams of avarice. Calculating on the gradual increase of other new coun tries, it was conjectured that this period was remote, and tliat-its vast resources must be called forth veiy slowly, and from time to time, by, toilsome efforts and progress ive labors.' The state economists and the closest politi cians will tell you this—you may read it in all their, books. They say it, nevertheless, in distant-prospective; like the Jews of old, who knew of the coining of tlie Mes siah, yet would never credit his actual arrival.

In this musical age, many of our readers will no dnubf be gratified by tlie following original letter from the ce lebrated Dr. Franklin to lord Kaims, with which we have been favored by an “Amateur of Pastoral Melo dy.” The letter is dated June 2, 1765.—JVew-Fork Courier. I11 my passage to America I had your excellent work the “Elements of Criticismin which I found great en tertainment; I only wished you had examined more fully the subject of music; and demonstrated that the pleasure which artists feel in hearing much of tliat composed in the modern taste, is not the natural pleasure arising from melody or harmony of sounds, but of the sum-, kind with the pleasure we feel on seeing the surprising feats of tumblers and rope-dancers who perform difficult things, jfor my part l take this to be the real case, and suppose it the reason why those unpractised in music, and there fore unacquainted with those difficulties, have little or no pleasure in hearing this niusjc; many pieces of it are mere compositions of tricks. I have sometimes at a con cert, attended by a common audience, unpractised in mu sic, placed qiyaclf so as to see all their faces, and ob served no signs of pleasure in them, during a great part of what was admired by tlie performers themselves, while a plain old Scotch tune, which.they disdained, and could scarcely be prevailed on to play, gave manifest and general delight. Give me leave, on this occasion, to ex tend a little the sense of your position.—-“That melody and harmony are separately agreeable, and in union de lightful;”—and, to give it as my opinion, tliat the reason why tiie Scotch tunes have lived so long, and (if they es cape being stifled in modern affected ornament) will pro bably live forever, is merely this—that they are really compositions of melody and harmony united, or rather, that their melody is harmony: I mean the simple tunes sung by a single voice. As this will appeal-paradoxical, I must explain my meaning. In common acceptation, an agreeable succession of sounds is called Melody, and tlie coexistence of agrees bie sounds, harmony. But since; tiie memory is capable of retaining for some moments, a perfect, idea of tlie pitch of a past sound, so as to compare with the pitch of a suc ceeding sound, and judgu truly of'them agreement or disagreement, tbeir may, and does arise from thence a sense of harmony between the present and past sounds, equally ph asing with tliat between two present sounds. Now the construction of the old Scotch tunes is this: tliat almost every succeedingemphatical note is a third, a fifth, an octave, or in short, some note,, that is in con cord with the proceeding note: thirds are chiefly used which are very Concords. I use the word emphatical to distinguish those notes which have a stress laid on them in singing the tune, from tlie lighter coniuCting notes that serve merely, like grammar articles in common speech, to tack the whole together. That we have a most perfect idea of a sound just past, I mightappeal to all acquainted with music; who kno'w how easy it is to repeat a sound In the same pitch with one heard. In tuning an instrument, a good ear can as easily determine, tliat two strings are in unison, by sound ing them separately, as by sounding them together; their disagreement is also as easily; I believe I may say more easily, and better distinguished, when sounding sepa rately; for, when sounded together, 'though you kup-w by tiie bed ting, tliat one fe- higher than the other, you cannot tell which it is. I have ascribed to memory tiie ability of comparing the pitch of a present tone with that of one past. But if there should be (as possibly there be) something in the ear similar to what we find in the eye that ability would not be entirely owing to memoiy. Possibly the vibrations given to the auditory nerves by a particular sound, may actually continue some time after the cause of these vibrations are past, and the a reement or disagreement of a subsequent sound, become by com parison with them more discernible. Farther;, when we consider by whom these ancient tunes were composed, and how they were first performed, we shall see that such harmonica! succession of, sounds was natural and even necessary, in their construction. They were composed by the minstrels of those days, to be-played on the harp accompanied by the voice. The liarp was strung with wire, which gives a sound of long continuance and had no contrivance like that of the modern harpsicord, by wliich the sound of the proceeding could be stopped, the moment a succeeding note began. To avoid actual discord, it-was therefore necessary, that the succeeding emphatic note should be a chord with the preceding as their sounds must exist at the same feme. Hence arose that beauty-in those tunes which had so long pleased and will please for ever, though men scarce know why. Tliat; they were originally composed for the harp, and -that of the most simple kind (I mean a harp without any half notes, but those in the natural scale, and with no more than two octaves of strings, From Ci C.) 1 conjec ture from another circumstance, which is, that not one of those tunes really ancient, has a single artificial note in it; and-thatin tunes where it was most convenient for the. voice, to use the middle notes of the harp, and place the key in F, there the B, which if used, should be a beflat, is always omitted, by passing over it with a third. The Connofeeur in modern music will say I have no taste; but I cannot help adding, that I believe our ances tors, in hearing- a good song, distinctly articulated, sung to one of those tunes, apd accompanied by tlie harp, felt more real pleasure than is communicated by tlie gen erality of modern Operas, exclusive of that arising from the scenery and dancing.
