But we yet hope | end justice out of the | tection of the community, by exposing vice in eve- ‘lic indignation. It is the publie guardian, the ter- ! of wrong in high ‘places, the only public | supporter of the weak, the oppressed, the | riehvillany. It cannot be bought, for the great mass | press which is the moral government of such a city | land~of shielding by.every, possible art and trick, and violence and denuncia- tion, the rich criminal from punishment—who would violate all the laws of the land to screen a | piece of respectable depravity from the condiga punishinent he has merited, are the bane, the curse, | the pest of society: | Their course is dangerous in | the extreme, tending to destroy the very foundation of civil security, and to give the upper hand in soci- | ety to the abandoned, the violent, the dissolute and licentious, if they are only possessed of money. Against this horrible class the press stands for- ward in bold relief, as the hope, the shield, the pro- ry form, and holding up the respectable, the purse- proud violater of the laws, to a just and honest pub- ror of the oppressor, the sturay “opponent peor, and the defenceless, against the rich murder- er, the wealthy seducer, the respectable, the patron- ised vi ‘or. Itis the great mass, the people, who support this press; and of that great mass and all the particles which compose it, it is the protector ad defender against the individual combinations of which supports it, though individually it may be poor, is, in ita combined force, much more powerful than the rich rogues who would oppress and rule over them. Against such a press, thus supported by the com- munity at large, the attacks of a gang, a cligae, a party falsely calling itself the “bar,” are vain and powerless. We repeat it—it is not the bar, which attacks the press; it is a polluted remnant of a once noble profession—the Jonathan Wilds of criminal courts—the pocket-searchers of nocturnal captures— the jail-begging case-hunters—a pitiful horde of miserable wretches, whose faces’ are stamped with the same brazen traits which mark the villians to whom they sell themselves, body, soul and spirit, to defeat the law—to deceive justice—to rescue the guilty at all risks, by all means, and at all hazards ! These are the men who dare to take up a cry | againat the press! These are the men who charge the press with venality! These, who have allied themselves to the rich vice of the country, who are in league with the enemies of society—with the perpetrators of crime, that they may feast upon the crumbs which fall from the table of respectable rob- bers and villains !—these are the men who raise an | outcry against the press, the last hope of the virtue | and honor of the community. Their denunciations and their reproaches are an honor—we dread rather their applause. | In conclusion, we would observe, it is the newe- | paper press, in every civilized country, but especially | in a republic like ours, which is the great element of general order, the asserter of men’s rights, and | the promoter of all that ornaments and ennobles hu- man society. It may be said to be the only principle | which, in this country especially, keeps society to- | gether and produces order in the community. It isthe | aé New York. It is that which preserves, influences and purifies, while it protects the niorals and the reli- gion of the community; which gives tone to public | sentiment and feeling, and originates every great movement which benefits and advances society. | The bar or the bench cannot lay claim to such char- | acteristics, as a profession. Has it not been atall | times endeavoring to go backwards, and throw the | whole public mind into the shackles of the dark | ages? Is it not now the business of a portion of the bar to throw obstacles in the execution of the law, | and impede the public administration of justice ? | Every one knows this. We donot think it necessa- | ry toadd another word. | | Organization or a Sream Navy.—It appears by | the advices from Washington, that there was al meeting of the Cabinet a few days since, and that | the project of building a number of steamships was | discussed, and it was considered advisable to issue | proposals for the building of ten of those vessels, to be built in such a manner that in time of peace they could serve as packet ships between this country | and Europe. igi We are glad that this great measure has at last been seriously considered by the Government, and | our only regret is, that the subject did not receive attention before this. We have on many occasions, | through the columns of this paper, directed attention to this subject. The plan of building vessels and using them as packets and war vessels, originated in New York, and was submitted to Mr. Tyler | during his reign; but that philosopher did not deem | it of sufficient importance to notice. If we had, say twenty of these vessels, at the present time, add- | ed to our little navy, what a feeling of confidence it would inspire us with’! The cry for some time past, that if our difficulties with England on | the Oregon question, reached a crisis suddenly | and war should result, our Auantie cities would be in danger of being sacked and burnt by the English vessels of war, because we had no force that could suecesefully compete with them, would be allayed. | Indeed, without any reference to the Orégon ques- | tion, there is mo reason why we should be almost defenceless, as regards steam navy. In addition to the protection that our numerous harbors require, our commerce is entitled to the consideration of the government. On every sea that is frequented by our merchant ships, there should be more or less of our naval strength, to protect them. Indeed, | ashow, merely, of an adequate force to resist any | aggressive attempt to injure our commerce, would | be the means of avoiding disputes which might otherwise be the means of creating a great deal of trouble. In order to carry out the project successfully, and avoid some of the failures that have marked the government in its attempts to build steam vessels, we should suggest to them to apply to some of our celebrated ship-builders in New York. The fame which they have acquired, both at home and abroad, —and the praise that has been bestowed on our celebiated packet ships, are a guarantee that if | they were to have anything to do with the steam war vessels, there would be no danger of any of those mistakes occurring again. But why not leave the whole thing to private enterprise? Let the gov- ermment issue proposals for the building of a certain number of vessels—to be built in a manner to an- swer the government purposes ; and let the govern- ment give them the carrying of the mail between this country and Europe—with the understanding that, in case of war, the government would buy them out altogether, at a fair valuation. If this plan were adopted, there is not the slightest doubt that there is capital and enterprise enough among our merchants and ship builders to create a number of vessels, that besides doing credit to the country, would be the best and most efficient vessels of war in the world. But whatever be the plan adopted, we hope Con- gress will take steps to give us a steam navy of some kind.

ANOTHER REVOLUTION !! {From the New Orleous Picayune, Dec. 9.) By the Mexican schooner Joaquin, Martinez, master, which left Tampico on the 1st inst., we have lato and im- rumors which save been for so: that Gen. Pa redes had at last declared pear at length likely to be ve ursuing. A revolution is now on foot, or has already een consummated. This arrival being from Tampico, we not our usual files, so asto be able to give @ continuous narrative of events; but from the extracts of newspapers and placards before us. we are enabled to form some opinion of what is going on. ‘The revolution in progress Commenced with the “Ar- my of Reserve,” stationed at San Luis Potosi. The 4 and ferment preliminary to an outbreak, ably occasion to the rumor which was in circulation in Cruz on the 1st December, when the British sfeam- er leftfor Havana. {t was a fortnight after things reached a crisis. On the 14th Commandant General of the Department, D. Manuel Ro- mero, invited to his residence at Sen Luis Potosi the su- perior and other officers of the Army of Reserve, as well as of the garrison of the Department, Being there as- sembled, Gen. read to them @ manifesto prepar- ed forthe in which the duties of the armed force of the are pointed out, but grave po- litical evils are asi d'to excuse themselves for the act they areabout to commit. The manitesto alleg that the existing istfation, from which a year since ail bad hoped so well, had conducted the government to the very brink of a precipice ; that it hed established the most us theories upon which to admin ternal affairs: that it sought to get rid of a war, and glosious in itself, by conce sions injurious te the na tional dignity, and which were the sole barrier to the am- bitious designs of a nation ous ; that it had proposed trocity | wae without example, by which to arm the vile and ig- norant, those having the least stake in the country, and thus to find a substitute for the army, which opposed its views ; that it had repeatedly thwarted the purpose of the army to move upon Texas, and at the same time al- lowed the a be villified for its inaction by official | dmitted a commissioner, with as endeavoring to arrange {or the loss of the i it had reduced the coun. | , in the midst of which it | existed without revenue, without power, and almost | without will ; and conside: that these evils demanded an immediate remedy, and that the administration con- | feased its total incompetency and powerlessness ; consi- dering that it had lost all respectability, so necessary to @ government, and had allowed a plenipotentiary of the United States to set foot in the country and reside in the | capital, with a view to bargain for the independence and | nationality of country, which have been so many sa- crifices—considering all these and other grievances, which we have not room even t> mention, the manife: then proj s, for the consideration of the Junta, ten | Pepe jons, which we annex below. | ’e have not aimed to give the preamble in all its ver- | bose and ponderous but infer from it that the fol- | lollowing Loreen are/sought to be fortiti by the total incapacity ef the ex admi and its readiness gs with the United nd the Califo But to the propositions © army supports with arms the protest which the | nation makes against every future act of the existing ad. | ministration, and from this day forth will hold such act | void and of no effect. ‘ ‘he present Chambers of Congress andof the Ex- ecutive, not being able to continue their functions, from this time thei jority over the army ceases. | 3—Immediately after the army occupies the capital of | the republic, an extraordinary Congress con- | |, with ample powers to constitute the nation, with- ont apy restrict in its august fu ¥ 4—In the formation of this ress shall be combined re] tion of all classes of soci of its high functions, it shall organise the executive pow- able to exist without its er, and no authority shall be sovereign sanction. 6—In the departments, the same authorities, ly, as are at present in power, shall continue so, until ey are rep by those whom the national represen- tation may substitute. 7—The army names for its chief in this political move- his excellency, the general of di D.

That of Scharfenburg and Luis undoubtedly isthe best and most beautiful of all, and has the great advantage ef being the only one free from ty phical errors, having been carefully corrected rs who have attained a certain degree xecu_ tion, will be amply repaid for the trouble of the study, as it makes a most effective and brilliant morceau for dis play, and is, moreover,sn admirable exercise tor the Practice ef octaves and accords. The ‘Airs Russe” is, if not the best, at least the most charming, and perhaps the most electrifying of horter com por ; and the comperatively slow movement in which it may be play- ed, renders its great difficulties, principally these of the three last pages, less formidable.
