COMMODORE VAN DéRBILT’S REPLY. ‘New York, April 12, 1855, GrsTLeMEN:—Your letter of the 30th ult. is before me, and I need hardly ray thet it flads me wholly unprepared by previour reflection for the receiptot a communi- cation of its description I thank you for your kind expression. and for the exceediug compliment which its purport conveys. No cinzen of this republic can feal otherwise then proad vo learn that witn any of his fel- low coantrym+n hie o+we bas been mentioned ia con- nection with en office which, at this day, is unqestiona- bly the most distioguisbed of the igh places of earth. Buti can at once assare you that 1am not now, d that I baveneverat apy time been, ia auy degree desirous of polities! or per-oual distinction and that I am so constituted that I cannot well appreciate the pleaeures which allure thoss who make the attainm nt of places of bonor the object of ther exertions. fi tlier period of wy life devoted to mitting toil, while my later ye by the muleipled cares whic! varied pursuits hava engendered, To this hour therefore, Ihava never foond the tume to indulge one single dieam of ambitioa; aad [I ore ipations of youth.

I’, as you seem to assume, 1 have in eny manner illustrated that genius, er accouplisned anything which tends to the encouragement of individual enter; aod Glled high- on. You have done me the honor to atk for an expression of my views iu relation to our natior and Ido not consider myself at liberty to withhold cach expres- sion, although no practical advantage can wall result from their statement You v wel kaow that lam pot versed in matters of State tics, and that men of laborious hives, hke ourselves, heve but slight opportu- nity for attention to those subjects which become the #pecia! study of that portion of our citizens who aim to disebarge the duty of legislating for the rest. Bat I have wot failed to reflect mvch and serto upon tne cent py of this great nation, of which every Ame- niesn citizen, however ovscure, is not aa unessen- tial part, and on the meaus by which that deati- ny ie to be accomplished I am one of those wbo beli nO particular class of mem, whether isi pecially charged with the ri 1d duty of asserting and maintaiaing those gre: truths which form the bulwark of our national pros: perity. Nor do I think tbat the prerogative exists which entities the opinions of public men, so called, as diatinguisbed from private citizens, upon the various fubjects of our national affairs, to apy. greater dignity or weight than such as follows from the intrinsic merit of the principles they advovate. In our American nation every man is forced to think serery gen has the clear, unquestioned right to speak, ano thaf boldly, bis sentiments upon ail sadjects of na- tional concern.’ Among a people governing themselves by constitutions and laws coininel by themvelvea, each man is # legislator, and ¢ man most, therefore, in rome limited form, discharge the duties of »tateaman- skip. The public sentiment of the nation is the com- bined force of the opinions of rmilions of intelligent men, each thinking aud acting separately, and for all; and the var‘ous mearures of its vast public policy are liable to be influenced, to a greater or less degree, by the opt- nions of any individual man. Entertaining auch ideas, and belonging to that order of American men who bavo not the art to conceal their qetas, and to whom there is not sufficient attrac- in ail the ttempt cs rewards of ambition to indace an to misrepresent them, I shall not be at cbargeab’e with having ne is tet to the privileges of private citizenship, if, in anewer to your-respectful inquiry, I freely say somettdng to you in relation to the subject matters upon which you have requested an expression of my views. im the limited cirsle where I am known, [am often styled a successful man; and I am well satisfied that all the results that baveettended the labors of my Lie are attributable to the aimple rule which I early adopted, to wind wy own business I koow of no distinction from that rule, which is applicable to the business 0. a great nat on; nor can I suggest one more appropriate for the regulation and conduct of the foreign policy of the Ame- moan To menage our own affeirs in our own way, add to Jeave otber nations to conduct theirs, at their own peril, is a system of policy 0 accordance with the — principles and the great necersities which laid the fovpdation of our republic. Our nationel interests are best subservec by peace. We are a commercial peo. le. and the history of the world has proven that com- erce and its vast and varied interests thrive most and only by peace, e apd natural mettod of preserving nations from the multiplied evils of those conficteof war ia which they at times engage, is foreach to determiae and discreetiy, and then to abide steadily by its own distinctive policy.

No on? can doubt but it is the tras policy of the covntry to sphourags whowesome emi. ra- tem; and I vei assert thet no nstive born citizen can efound who would deny to the emigrant from foreign lands the hospitel- ilies and the freedom which the generous rpirit of America offers to the oppressed and the impoverished of every clime.

To seek to deprive our acopted citizens of any social or pohtical privileges which toey bave acquired wader ex- itting laws, woald be a measureof wrong as ignomwiaious toourselves ay upjust to them.

MAYOR WOOD TO THE PEOPLE OF NEW YORK. Mayor's Orrick, Nww Yorx, April 1¢, "1855. ‘The Legislature of this State having passed an act en- titled “am Act for the Suppression of Intempsrance, Pauperiem and Crime,’’ known as the Prohibitory Li. quor Law, andas my position with reference to its eu- forcement in this city, so far as that duty may devolve upon my office, should be declared at an early day, to eave no doubt as to its character, 1 hereby present for public consideration the principles which control my conduct asa public officer, alike applicable to :aatters of great or small import. That the people govern—not in their primary capacity, but through representatives freely and fairly chosen—is the theory of American government. The people are the source of political power They make the laws; and the great safeguard of American liberty is general compliance. As the statutes thus created for the better protection of life and property, and the pursuit of bappiness, are bus the reflection of the popular will for the time being, so are they bin ting upoa the body politic—the minority as well as the majority— who are slike parties tothe compact, the obligations of which it is dishonorable to disregard. And tnough these elements of self government present the distin. guishing features between our owa and the governments of Europe, still our success haa been owing more to ac- quiesence in the willof the majority than in the chsrac ter of the government itself. Other republics have failed, even when founded upon our forms and coastitu- tion, only because of the resistance of the vanquished contestants for rule by rebellion against the laws and the executive power appoiuted to enforce them. We uncerstand republicanism differvatly, aad hence have no such struggles. The generally pervadiog common school e¢uvational sya‘em—the rigid principle of obeai ence instilled into the child by the parent, and the scho lar by the teacher—the enlarged buman progress, leading ‘onward to the expansion of the heart and intellect, all founded upon en enlightened unprosoriptive cetigious tentiment, furoish the platform upon which American liberty stands, and from which no calamity save foccivle Tesistapce to the laws can ever remove it. It is not contended that tm norities haye not grievanses, and thet their grievances must remain unredressed, ‘Their rights are (ully protected. The +ame fuadamental Jaw that binds minorities co submit, poiats out clearly the roai to relief against an illegal or impropr exer- cise of authority upoa the part of the major " whenever tanaticism rules the hour and the country with ita baneful influence, to the etslasion of reeson and justice, public opinion’ wili soon correct the error and restore the calm sense of mature conser rative judgment, What if the law maker proves recreant, and Detrays the constituent he was chosen to represent?

There are the only coastitutioaal re- sorts—alt others are treason ani redeilion.

To show that Edwards was his debtor, he produces two promissory totes and a due bill, amounting together to about $5,000. There papers, ex- cept the signature, are all in the plaintifl’s handwriting. If they spesk the truth, (and if they do not, the plam- tiff bas po cause for action,) they show that, as an May, 1849, Edwards was indebted on ‘ settlement of accounts ” $2,200; and that, instead of paying, he went on increasing the burthen by contracting further liabilities in nine months, to an equs! additional amount ond upwards They prove, if genuine, that he was in debt more than $4,000—aad, whecher genuine or other- wise, they do not prove, nor does any other evidence im the ‘care prove, that he had anything to show for this poyiet e the Barons " le ees far an it goes, ive and negative, direct and presump- tive, all tends to the opposite con-lusion. When asked what was given for these notes, the plaintiff stands mute, He might bave spoken, not himeelf I admit, bat th witnesses; and yet he says nothing. The pre- sumption is, that ‘he preferred darkness rather ught, because im the former thers was a chance of suc- cess, while in the latter there was acertsinty of defeat. It bas been wi ed, rather faintly, however, that Edwards, admitting his other deficiencies, wae the owner of the gains of the establishment conducted by the so- called Mrs. Kdwards. They lived together, itis true, im the house, and as man and wife. But shameless as he was, he neither claimed, nor pretended to claim, the earnings of her business. She received them in her ows name, and in her own name deposited and controlled them; and he never disputed ber right to doso. She sometimes, indeed, paid his tailor’s bills. But generosity, not justice, it is obvious, dictated the act. If she and clothed, and lodged him, the gratuity created no ee erase to pay hs debts, or to give him her house.
