UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE, Br THE DELEGATES OF THE PEOPLE OF TEXAS, In General Convention, at the town of Washington, on the second day of Match, 1836 When a government has ceased to protect the lives, liberty, nnd property of tho people, Irom whom its legitimate powers are derived, nnd for the advancement ofwhose happiness it was instituted, and so fur from being guarantee for their inestima ble and mnlieninble rights, becomes an instrument in the hands of evil rulers for their oppression: When the Federal Republican Constitution of their country, which they have nworn to support, no longer has a substantial existence, and the whole nature of their government has been forcibly changed, without their consent, from a restricted Federative itepuolic, composed of Soveriagn States, to a consolidated Central Military in which every interest is disregarded but that of the army and the eternal enemies of civil liberty, the ever ready minions of power, andhe usual instruments of tyrants: When, long after the spirit of the constitution has departed, moderation is at length so far lost by those in power, that even the semblance of freedom is removed, and the forms themselves of the constitution discontinued; so far from thi-ir petitions and remonstrances being regar ded, the agents who bear them are thrown into dungeons mercenary armies sent forih to force a new government upon them at the point ol the bayonet: When in consequence of such acts of malfeasance and abdication on the part of the government, anarchy prevails, and civil society is disolved into its original In such a crisis, the first law of nature, the right ot self preservation, the inherent and inalienable right of the people to appeal to first principles, and take their political affairs into their own hands in extreme cases, enjoins it ns aright towards themselves and a sacred obligation to their posterity to abolish snch government, and create another in its stead, calculated to rescue them from impending dangers, and to secure their future welfare and happiness. Nations, as well as individuals, are amenable for their acts to the public opinion of mankind.

the good feelings of the people of the Unlled Htates towards us, add the aid wa hjpa for from 1,1,.,, i Among the many reasons which Juuge vviuie i tirt of 'ho Post Office Department. The Globe, ill noticing this of Jndge White, parades the copy of a letter before the public, written by the direction of the Postmaster General, to the Postmas ter at M'Minnville, ano the Editor of the Gazette, tm et idem, in which he is told that he "must; furnish the Department with sufficient evidence of (his) having relinquished all concern in the publication of a newspaper," and that if he "should de-I elide it will beaome necessary to make a new ap of Postmaster. Here, is a recognition if the importance of the principle laid down by Mr M'Leah, and the Globe expressly states that this principle is "held sacred" in the Department. And yet how stands the case now? This letter was written on the 11th of December, 1835, more than four months ago, arid we have at this moment be fore us the M'Minnville Gazette, ol the 9th of April, 183G, in which the name of J. TV.

Ford appears in large capitals at its head, as the Editor and Proprietor, a nd on another page, at the foot ofj "a list of letters," as Postmaster! The sick- cess of Mr Kenda which the Globe alleges as an excuse for4 inattention, cannot avail. The letter to Mr Ford was written by Mr Gardner, the Assistant Postmaster General, and, as we have not heard of his sickness, we suppose he could have attended to this matter. Besides, the Globe says that nothing hag beon heard from the M'Minnville Postmaster-Editor since Mr Gardner's letter was written. This shows one of two things that Mr Ford is a very disobedient nnd negligent agent, or, what is more probably the fact, that he knows who he is dealing with, and has but littlo fear of being removed so long as he abuses Judge White and does his duty to "the party." We are no prophet, and yet we will venture to predict that J. W.

Ford will continue to "exercise the functions" of Editor and Postmaster in the town of M'Minnville, until after the Presidential election, when probably he may come in for a still greater share of "the spoils." The manner in which Mr Kendall has acted in this matter affords another evidence of his unfitness for the important station to which liehag been exalted, and will go far with the people of Tennessee towards sustaining tha "reasons" of Judge While in voting against his nomination. JVasfttriHe and GaUutli company. By the following letter from a gentleman in Sumner county to the Editor, it will be perceived, what progress has been made in that county -in taking slock in this important road, and what ate the' prospects of its being constructed. Davidson county is ceitainly deeply interested in its success, and we have no doubt that she will dp her duty. "I know you feel a livelyjinterest in everything that concerns the internal improvement of the coun try, and I will therefore advise you of our prospecti in regard to this im porlant enterprize of constructing a road from Nashville by Gallatin to the Kentucky line in the di rection of Glasgow Kentucky.

Books for subscription to the Stock of this company were opened in several places in Sumner during the last week we have not yet heard from two of them, whore we expect some amount was taken. But we already know that $60,000 of the stock has been taken in this county, every dollar of which has been subscribed by solvent individuals. The ipital stock of the company is unlimited by the charter in It may consist of any sum which the Company shall deem necessary to accomplish the object. It is probable that from 130'to 140 thousand dollars will be sufficient. But the Capital stock of the company ought to be large enough, and which we think should bo $150,000 this will require a subscription on the part of indi viduals lo the amount of $100,800, leaving $50,000 to be taken by the State.

We have not yet heaid from Davidson county, but hope you have done your duty. It is surely not top. much for us. to expect, that you have taken $50,000 of the stock in the moat important road in the State, and which passes 12 through the. county of Davidson.

It would ba 11 and-, a. reproach to your citizens, permit. us. to construct the whole road ourselves, without rendering us any efficient l.nn:n.nuM. .1 i assistanco and this from the weahhiost 'county in the State and the- Metropolis of Tennessee, I will not believe-this; however, Tintil it shall be rendered certain by the event.

INDIAN TROUBLES. Extracts of letters received in Charleston, 'Indian Key. March 17. "It is now ascertaiend without a doubt, that there is a large number ol hostile Indians embodied near Cape Sable, within 30 miles of us, and the inhabitants of this Island are hourly in imminent danger of an attack. What we always apprehen ded hns turned out to be the case, that ns they were driven from the North Eastern part of the interior, they wonld retreat to the Southern point nnd he Keys.

As the Texan Declaration of Independence has, in most cases, if not in all, been published very incorrectly the United States, we give a copy to day, for the correctness of which we can vouch, as it is taken from the original paper ivhich wdt signed in the Convention. CyWhat a picture of change and inconsistency does Mr Ritchie of the Richmond Enquirer, he of 'the seven principles, present I A short time ago Judge White, in his estimation was all that a statesman ought to bea man without fear and without reproach one of the purest politicians of the day 11 Jeffersonian republican a lofty, high minded gentleman, and one who deserved the proud distinction of being no man's man. Now he is the very reverse of all these things. He is no statesman he is corrupt, and the truth is not in him he is mediocre in point of talents, his speeches are weak and evince no research or information, and the reasons which 'ie gives for his votes on some of the nominations of the President "are the subterfuges of a cunnin not a candid mind. They are mean, disingenuous, untrue." His objections to one of these nominations are termed "false, hasty, futile, unworthy of a just And why has this change "come oyer the spirit" of the venerable JVoits Virrons i Jadge White is as wise, nnd has exhibited as much talent in his speeches, as he did when the Richmond Enquirer was so eulogistic.

The secret of the matter is that Mr Ritchie now affects to despise Judge for the very quality for which he once praised him because he is no man's man. Had be been a Van Buren man, and yielded to the solicitations, the wheedling, or the threats of the party," and withdrawn his name from the Presidential contest, there is no person in the Unitod States who would have been more ready to bespatter him with fulsome epithets of praise than this fame Mr Ritchie of the seven principles. What an old weathercock it is During our indispositton the reasons of Judge White for his votes upon the recent nominations of the President, which were published in the Sun by authority, were overlooked and consequently did not appear in our paper. We, therefore, publish them to day, that onr readers may know the motives of that conduct for which the Judge has been abused with no common degree of violence. His reasons will, we doubt not, prove entirely satisfactory to the people of his own State, to whom he is immediately responsible for his conduct as Senator most especially will they approve of his vote upon Mr Kendall's nomination, for whose success the faithful seemed to be most warmly interested.

The whele course of this individual's political life shows that he is au unscrupulous' partizan, and that neither principle nor consistency will be regarded when either conflicts with his interests or his views. Had he remained in the compnintively minor station of Auditor, attending, as his friends said, punctually and strictly to its duties, and occasionally, as was insisted, writing. an article for the Globe, it would have been a matter of but little consequence and hot deserving much consideration, as hii power was not groat; and he could do but Jittle harm by th indulgence and exercise of his party feelings. But he has now been raised to the head of of the most important Departments of dnvommunt nna ...1. Government, one especially which can be mora effectually used than any other for the advance-, ment of political views, and we, for one, should have been greatly disappointed had Judge White, entertaining the opinions which we did, assisted in placing him there.

We admire his honesty and his boldness, he says that he would have voted against him, had he voted alone. Texas Flag. The following resolution was passed by the recent Convention in Texas. Resolved, That a single star, with five points, either of gold or of silver, be adopted as the pecu liar National emblem of this Republic, and that every officer of the Convention be requested to wear it on his hat or his bosom. A single Star is the most prominent feature in the Flag which was unanimously adopted by the Convention.

Of this Flag we have seen a inodelr which was inclosed hy a distinguished member of the Convention to his friend in this place. Aa the, description wrich accompaned this model may not prove uninteresting, we give it below. "The large brilliant gold Star on a red ground, just below the top of the staffj is in tended to represent the rising republic of Texas the smaller Star at the other extreme tho waning government of Mexico. The blue ground represents the Gulf of Mexico, which forms our Southesn should not all the craft be well versed jn these old principles and new applications Such astonishin, effects have resulted already from this cause, that were it announced that some ingenious mechanic would on a given day mount up to the clouds on wings it would be far from ridiculous to go out to see tho feat Indeed scarcely any thing the perpetual motion excepted can bo deemed extrnva gant atlhe p-csentday in mechanics. Some Gal-vanist makes a discovery in electro-galvanism immediately the mechanic applies his wheels and levers and a new wonder appears.

One grand reason why Tennessee is so far behind her sister States in'inter-nal improvements is to be found in the fact that har mechanics are not equal in knowledge to theirs. We have the talent if we had the science. All Tennesseans want is to inform themselves and to apply that information to the useful arts.

When that is done we shall "rise like a giant refreshed by the slumbar of ages." CLIO the Republican. Music, Oh! how faint, how weak, Language fades before they spoil, Wliy uVinnM fooling When thou canst breathe its soul sa well? Moore. Mr. Editor: When it is contemplated how much time and expense have been bestowed by many of our citizens in their endeavours for acquiring for their children a knowledge of Music, one cannot but be sorry their good intentions have not been attended with better success iu general, though the failure cannot be wondered at when it is perceived how many impedi ment stand in the way of its impiovement. It may, therefore, not be amiss to point out lo the public some of the obstacles, which if removed, may be the means of making Music more useful to society, as its influence on mankind is allowed by all who have informed themselves on the subject, to soften the turbulent passions and to produce the benevolent and kinder feelings of the human heart.

From the above remarks it is natural a question should arise, what remedy or plan do you propose for the removal of the evil The writer of this article intends to point out some of the hindrances which are most prominent, which, if overcome, smaller ones will not be of much consequence. When a Parent places his daughter At school, among the many branches she has to study and perfo is Music, perhaps, vocal and instrumental, without considering whether the pupil has a capacity for the science, and whether her other studies will give her time and opportunity for her attending to so difficult, an undertaking; and in this uncertainty is the pupil left to the chance of doing little or nothing towards improvement, found fault with, (or as it is called) scolded frequently for backwardness in her lessons by perhaps a conscientious teacher. She soon grows tired of him and her tasks nnd very Cordially dislikes both. Should not Music bo discontinued so-soon as-such consequences are perceptible? Certainly. In these dislikes too it not unfre- quently happens that parents taka part with the children and they are sometimes removed to another teacher who does not find fault, (scold) so ihat money and timo are expended and, what is as bad, unkind feelings engendered.

The next obstacle to real improvement in Music is that its study and practice are solely confined to young females; and when a few of them are somewhat advanced; in the practice they find to. their great mortification that their performance, after all their trouble, is not appreciated by the young men, who, from their neglect of the art, ure any thins; but judges of what is good. A remark from a voun lady so circumstanced may be made to. her teacher thus "Mr Gamut, it is of no use my learning this Bip.Cfi.it is difficult liul cant. no one nices such pieces but you and Air Ledgerline.
