Ha sought in the drawer for theso papers of which his tather had. spoken to him, nud he read the: history of those wrongs which had been suf. fared by the: father, and been so severely visited on the son, Juan Meddicci the futher of Femmando had been in earhior times a Senator, and in the prime and vigor of his life ha exersised groat influence in the affairs of states His voice declared war, and his policy dictated peace.

Never were such abilities, faith, possessions, and suthority unenvied, for envy us death loves \a shining mark.\ The growing honors, and importance of Juan Maddiccoi in he V netian Seonte, and his rep- itation among: the Venetian people, awakened in the Dake of C-- n determination to effect the downfall of this iMustrious man ; and while the Sonator was as an nmbassador to a Foreign State ondeavoring to efect nogorintions of peace, and trade, the Duke of C-- leading on that pack which ever how! at unattainable greatness, threw every obstacle in the way of the proposed treaty. Employing specious arguments he endeavored to convince the Doge that the treaty would cover Venice with disgrace. These men spoke of the ambition of the absent Senator, of his growing desire to descend the Ducal Chair, and of his pol- tey to Attach to himaolf the interssts of foreign States. 'The Dogo was provailed upon, ond he wrote for the immedinte return of the abgent Seintor.- | Jua Meddicci ignorant of the state of affiirs at home had nardly completed the object o lis mis- tug of his father: that toss had not been forgot» 1 Tremont person who has been nierested somewhst to yuur past life and chargeter, and who, [ quesion not, will prove more eloquent in rendering you a snita- ble returo for your gallontry and chivaliy,\ \ Aud may I frankly speak with you,\ said Fermondo, with an nit of modest confidence, concerning a subject which will exercise an important influence un my future happiness and destiny. Doge of Venice, start not when I say Plove thy duughter ! that I have tong and devotedly loved her 1 _I wil: vot tell you how earnestly 1 struggled wih this passion, how I have endeavored to stifle it ; for when I reflected on iny condition, I kow the cluld of poverty, unknown and unnonoredin the world, could never wed the daughter of theDage. It was this passion which led me to witn@s the pagonnt at sunset; it is this passion which lns actuated my being ever sinee, which fed int from my native land to mingle in the Roman It infusod in me a desire for honor, for weilth, and charactor. It has been the star of my desti- ny, dimly and frintly it shown at first bot {tine, fuith and constancy Lave brought me neevet the fountain of its light, more briffiant and clear it ap~ pears as T advance, and it seems now to shire on me With unwavering brightness.\ Fernando 6n- ished, he had told the second tring the stary of of: love, Hoe stood before the Doge uncontitsed fo, ho was sustained by conscious rectifude and pur- ity ; yet he was anxions, for he hod arrived at an eventful period m his life; the am in his world- ly prospects which be had for \years regarded ns the season when bringing his honors with him he might more confidently demand the band of [he Doge's dunglter; this era was now before him, and one word from the poi! man who had lis- tened to his tale, might consummate Ins hopes, or dissipate the brightest vision of his existence, nnd quench forever the mild star of his destiny. The language of Fernando did not startle the Doge, for he had noticed for months past the nitach» ment of his daughter. On that eventlul morning when the prisoner was brought before him the in terest of the daughter was not wrongly interpre- ted by the fither, then first the truth of this se- eretfove broke upon him; he bad noticed anx- fously the sadness of his child during theabsence of Fernanda in Rome, and the marked and enger interest with which she rogarded the suugirle there, All these cireumsrances the proud. man saw, ond he was pained ; pained! because she was hig oaly child, and the daughter of the Doge | Sull he was too kind to remonstrate and wound, for hs happiness was wrapt in her's. lo could nor erush her hopes, or craclly thwart her young afvetion.

And now the cold maxims of the world could not ifiterpose their frigid eltime, they could not deny to birth and wexlth and hone or the br.de for whom modest word would have siwhed in vain. 'The Doge of Venice bad listen: ad plensarably Tor he too, though hie loved For- ity ot his government be violated.

DEMOCRATIC LEGISLATIVE ADDRESS. Ata meeting of the Denmeratie Republican: mem- bers of the Legisinture of the State of Now York, haid in the Assembly Chamber, May 20. 1841, Mr. PALGE, Chatman of the committew apporited for that reported the following Address, which was adopted. f; To the Democratic Republion Electors of the' . State of New York. Fellow Citizens -In compliance with establish» ed usage, the undersigned before they Gually sep- arate, on the adjournment of the legistature, deein It proper to address you on the subject of the po liperl condition of onr common country. We in all frankness see, that we say nothing in the pro- sent relative condition of parties, or fu the recent democratic defeat, to disconrage the Democtary of the United Stites,. We believe that n large majority of the People of this State, and of the United States, rre and always sall be the champi~ ona of the Democmmey, For it is the prineip'c of Demncracy, which does justice to man; which demands an equal distmbution of every social ed- vantage; and an equal participation of every gift of Heaven, It is the principle of Dommeracy which mantaing those glori us (roche, ® that ud men were rreated equal,\ «and that his, tiberir. and the pursuit-of hnppines=\ are inahionnole rights. 1t is the princin:c of Democracy, which procliims liberty to the down-troddon in every land ; which exposes the nbuses of miggovernment und explodes ancient prejudice end error. | It js the nBcompromising enemy ofasarpation and op» pression in every form, This principle is the ba- sis of free government. {t asserts the eapncity of man to govern himself. Jt vindicates his mtelfi- gance and honesty. ftinaintauins his impresgrip- tible title to freedom; and his right to \ clnose his own form of government, and to aiter npi ro- form it, from time to ting as his jodgment shall dietntc. It wages an eternal war with tyrants aud tyranny ; with monarchs and aristooracics, It condemns nll special privileges; it demands thit equal protestion be extended to all in the enjoyment of their rights and in their lawful pur. suits. Tt inculeates honor, virtue, honesty, and independence. It secures (0 nan, dignity, pros- perity and happiness, But it eannot be denied, that although the prin- tiples of Democracy are founded in truth and jus- tice, and elevate the character, assert the equal riglt8, und secure the linppiness and welfare of the musses, yet that in every community thore is to be found a elisa of persons; the few, who in- cessanlly labor to overilirpw these principles, or to limit their influence. Itis upoo this clase that the jealous éye ot the demoeracy must be con- stantly fixed, 'Pheir machinations nre ever di- rected ngainst the masses; their efforts are. un- censing 10 sep randize themselves, and to encronci upon tae rights and privileges of the people, 'Pro past history of our government, as well as of our revolutionnry struggle, shows that thore Las al. ways been a party in this country; whose object vas to engraft upon our institutions the princi- ples of Aristocracy, Many, who took part in the revolutionary strug. gle, seught to establish an independont movarchy unter the name of a republic. 'The elder Adams was of this number, He advecated a government after the British mode!; which should recogmze three distinct orders, like the King. Lords and Commons. He insisted that there was a natural aristocracy in society, composed of the rich, the talented and toll-born ; that the most illustrious of this class should be placed by themsclves in a senate. | He contended that the distinctions of poor and righ were necessary ; that # the poor were destined to labor, and the rich by the ad. vanrages of education, independence and leiswe, wore for suporier stations.** Thes» pricceiples had their advocates in the federal convention, They were szenlously maiu trined by A exasder Asnilion and Goverpeur Morris. Hanulton insisted there were two orders in reclory ; one the aich and well-boro, and the ather the mass of the peop'o. That = the people were turbulent and changing,\ and seldom detei mined right : That the first class whould have a distivet, permapent share in the goverement, in order to check the unsteadivess of the second, - ** Can,\ he said, \a demuerane assembly, who \ anrually revolve in the mass of the pgop'e, be ® supposed stoadily to purse the pubic grod I « Nothing but a permanent body can check the « imprudence of democracy.\ Morris said, the senate \* must have great personal property ; if «must have the aristocratic spirit ; it must love = to ford it through pride.\ These distinguished stateemen proposed aod ad veenied a form of government which provided for an Exceutive and Senate for life; an sbsolute ve: i in the Exceutive pon af: laws ; u hich gave the Executive the ole appointment of the heads of the dopiertments, and to the gimeral government the appointment. of governors of the statesy with power to negative All staee laws, and which pro- pased to confer op the geveral government un- hmited power in pasging laws 'This plan would have given ts t monarchy instend of a republic. Bortunately for oue beloved country; it found no favor with the convention. -It was rjected, and the monarehial priveip'es of those who advoca- ted it were repudiated by the stem republicans of that body, 'These priveiples ind opin- tons of Adas, Hamilton and Morris, wore fount» ed upon a distrust of the peope ; upon a belief that they were incapibleof self-government ; and hence they contended that a strong govermnent was necessary to chock their fmprudence and con- trol their. turbulence. 'These mongrchial p inci- ples were the prineipleg of the polideal friends oi Adams and Hanulton, who afterwards composed ARR Renan RL LOE Atbany, MEX! _1841A.7 alll Mamnom or Farier Marucw.

Ad: ams to the presidential chair. With his neces- sion to the office of chief magistrate of the union, was revived the Intitudinaiian doctrines of Ha- iltton and the early federalists, A gigantic scheme 0 internal improvements, without any limitation to eugh as were rauonal in their character, was then devised, in opposition to'the plain letter and eplit of the constitution, and in face of the direct rejecion of a proposition in the national conven- tion to mithorize congress to construet canals. (8 Mad. Papers, 1516-7.) A scheme which, if cwried out to the extent proposed, would have cost two millions of dollars. The aris- tocratic and dangerous policy of this administra- tion led to a second strugg'e between the two great parves, which r: sulted in another decisive victory of the demncracy. The result of this victory was most propitious to the welfare of the American people. Under the administration of Andrew JTackson, the cor- {upling‘ and unconstitnlional eystem of internal improvements, devised under the nuspices of his poodecestor, was mroited, nnd the atGempt.oftho.} Bank of the U.

Tis Maysvillerond ve. to put an ond to the infernal improvement sysiem, and his bank veto gave the national nank its qui- ere, Other schemes analagous to those advoca- ted by the carly federalists, were started by the modern federalists in congress during the admin- istrations of General Jackson and of Mr. Yiu Bu- ren, viz.; the distribwion of the public lands #mong the states, although they were ceded as a common fund for the joint use and benefit of the U Siaies, and for no other use or purpose what soever ; a high tariff the collection of a revenue Tor distribution ; and an assumption of the stare detrs, Phe policy of the modern federalists is the sate as that of their protorypes.

Is ideotity with that party is proved by the pringiples it professes, The presont w hig prity advocate a national hank ; tho consirnetion of internal improvements by the general government without limnation : the col- tection of a revenue for disnibation; high taxes hy moans of a high tadd': distribution of the pub lic domain: and an seeumption of tho ataie debta, In floe they advorare the exorcise by thy general government of every consiruetive power, ted by the old federal party; and in himbie imi-| tanon of that pany, maintain practically the dan- govaus doctrine that « a national debt is a nation» al blessing.\ Prey are postically the legitimate and Imeal descendants of the federalists of the Adams and Hamitonian school. In many instan- ces they hive improved ujon the aristocracy of their predecessors. Departing from the sound and st iet constrnction of the constitution, and embarking upon the wide sea of latitudinaramem, they construe the eensitstion to mean and thing and every thing, which expediency ur partisan imerests may diate.

Every now power with which the federal aristocracy may desire to fortify the general government. may hy their dangerous doctrine of constructive powers, be brought within the constiuional au- thority of congress. 'They have only toray that the new power «is necessary aud propor for car- rying into execution\ some enumerated. power, (und the terms ' nescssiury' and * proper®' they de- line to mean expedien, usofl, or convenient.) find by their mode of rensoning they prove that the vew power may be constitwional y exercised.
