a THE liVENlNGJjST. SATURDAY JUNE t3 MARTIN VAN BUREN. fOU T7CS fOBSmBirT, R1CHAKP M. JOHNSON. It wronjl whi are altogether wiihoat principle, for there is one principle, the support of which they eeteern cotnpeosatio for tbe neglect or every other, juet as In the old romsnres, the pretendrd generosity of a freebooter ie held atonement Tor ell bis crimee.

This vicarious principle, the eingle point, it may be observed, upon which the illustrious William Henry the Silent, baa voochaofcd us hie sentiments, their vaunted dectrino about the necessity of confining the presidential office to a single term. The wbigs prolcsa to look upon the re eligibllity ef tbe Eitcutive as the of nearly all the cots ruptioa which, according to their view of it, has been introduced into the administration of the government, and they can think of no remedy which docs not include the removal of the Pieaident as soon as bis Grst term or servico may hsve expired. It is not surprising that party which has never been able to hold pow longer than a single term should, in the end, come to look upon it as a good thing. A virtuoof the same sort waa manifested by tbe tail wanting fox of the old fable. As to the principle itself, though sometimes urged by venerable men, we consider it one of doubtful rss pediency, the pract ical operation of which would lead to greater evila than it aims to suppress.

Tbe argument is, that tbe re eligibility of the President converts bis first term into an electioneering cam yign, in wbicb ha is more anxious to seen re his re election than he isjcairfuljof tht public good, studying tbe art of intrigue rather than the art of just govern merit, and directing thejimmense power of his station, not to (be execution of the laws, but to the proseeus tion of his own cauae and tbe support of bia party. No one doubts that there i a some ground fjr these representations, and that the formidable power which our constitution commits to the Executive ie liable to gross abuts. But the true remedy is not to be found in lessening the direct responsibility of tbst officer to the people. Where the danger lies is in the length of bis term, in tbe unlimited means of patronage placod at his dispo sal, in bis prerogative of appointing and removing an army of subalterns, and in that immeasu able superiorly of position, alike inconsistent with republican simplicity and democratic equality, which makes bia place an object to corrupt and demoralizing anibi tion, the band of correction, to be effectual, must be applied to these features of Ibo Executive office. Stripping tbe President of those motives to good conduct presented by bis reveligibitity.is only making bia office more dangerous to the purity of the govern Stent and the liberties of the people.

'What De Totqucvilie, in bia work on democracy, urges against tbe re cligibiliiy of the President, is one of Ibo stroagest arguments in ita favor. lie ays, if re eligible (and tins ia more especially true the present day, when political morality ia rein ed and great men are rare) tbe President of the United Ststes becomes an easy tool in the hsnds of tbe majority. He adjpts ita likings and ita animosities, be battena to anticipate ita wither, be forslalls its complsnts, be yield to its idlest ciavings, and Instead of guiding it, aa the legislature intended he abould do, be la even ready to follow ita bidding." This ie only sayingiai the principle cl re eligibility bolda the President answerable to the judgments of public opinion, induces him to keep pace with the progress of thought and feeling among bis constituents, snd lorces nun into tbe relation, notot a leader or master of tbe popular lorces, but, what he is des signed to be, ol a mere agent or executor ofthe popu lar wilL Habits of dice, aa we art all aware, have aeon servants and contracting tendency they sitpinn duce the love if Itumulos ti.d leutinr, snd depress those free energies, and (list disinterested enlbu jsem which aie necessary to whoever would Interpret' or embody the progressive acntimcnta of tbe community. The public officer is ever behind bs day, and without the check which immediate amenability gives him, would soon come to be a hindrance, rather than a lnlp, to society in its onward march. He would stand us an obstacle in tbe way of desirable reform, and, instead of officii ling aa the servant, would more likely act as the oppressor of the public.

Governments are only good for anything when they ri flwct the convictions ol tlicir subjects, whin they are so Irar.ied and so administered that the eemimcn's of the people find an instsnl tsprersion. When sn irresponsible (Acer is sstabli hed, you make him to the extent of but sphere, a tyrant he is a person armed with the arbitrary authority of law; an agent that haa little or no connection wild lm principals a power partially exempt from control; a power which has but few and feeble motives to pood undertakings, and which secure, in its possession, may plsy tbe most fantastic tricks without compunction, or restraint. What inducement has he, who sinks into nothing" Beee at the close of bis official career, to be overanxious for the public good, to stir himself with plans of reformation, to suggest wise and bemficial mea aures, or to stake his political existence upon the fate ol great principles of policy 7 Let him, however, be solicitous to secure a re election, and he will set about recommending himself to those upon whose suffrages the perpetuation of his power depends he will look around for the means to promote their welfare, and thereby conciliate the ivor of the greatest number, and be wilt fasten himself to those just principles wbicb, more thsn intrigue, corruption, or bargains snaking, will give bim swsy with all classea and descriptions of men. But there is another rea son, why the close of the President's first term sho uld tot be the terminstion of bia career. It ofu happens, in the course ol political events, that a gnat man identifies himself with some bold messures of reform, that he has car raied it forward in the midst of virulent opposition, that be baa sacrificed personal ease snd present fame to the attainment of lofty end, and that tbe people for wboee advancement be atrove, may desire to manifest ibair gratitude in return.

It ia right thai a en tuweat, so natural, so just, and so useful to the en couragemeot of single handed virtue in ita struggles allied bands of injustice and fraud, ahould find an approprisieixpreasion. Should Jt Hereon, af ter having commenced bia beautiful simplifications the workings of the Federal government, have been aent to the shades before they were brought to en a end should tbe disinterested, sagscious and firm old soldier, who recently d. reeled tbe destinies of this nation, have been dismissed from ita service when the glorious war which he comiuetced against the despotism of tbe United Slates Dank, waa only half finished or, we may ssk, in tho same spirit, ahould lbs present incumbent of the Presidential chair, who, in continuing the policy bettun by bis predecessor, baa shown himself a man both good and great, who baa conducted a successful mus one of the most beneficent reforms recorded in our history and who, in a time of txiraorainary liiaL, haa sustained and illustrated bia sdminiatration by an uncompromising adherence to thedocuines of Equal Rights, be deserted st tbe ver time when it became the duty of the people to record their approbation of his noble efforts.

A western editor, speakin; frssbets, ssysthat tbs stream which passes by hi village is higher than it has been known to be sine )b sdopUoo of tb Federal Constitution, Corrttpondent of tht Evening Post Was niKOToa Cut, June iltb, 1840, The whigs all went down to the city of Alexandria to day, to get up a grand Tippecanoe carnival and a hard cider junket. Aa they were determined to get merry at all hax sards, they "furtifieo" very liberally before they started, and no doubt winked like owls before they on board of the steamboat.

They went off full glee and spirits, and aa the boat left the wharf they etruck up tbe beautiful and appropriate ballad com mencing thus lie tliai drinks and foes to bed metow, Lives he ought la Uo, and dies a jolly fellow, Aad ne that di luka and foes to bed sober, rails as the leaves do, aud dies in October." After the steamer bad got off a goodly distance cargo of live lumber "fortified" again, and era landed were no doubt of tbe hue of to many indigo bags, At Alexandria they made a deal of noise sung songs in honor to Mr. Tippecanoe played cribbage Drag made speeches about bribery and corrupt and all that and after they had got enough of cider and glory, staggered back to the steamer, on their arrival at Washington, were carried back their hotels, surrounded by a blaze of splendor. In tbe House, the motion of Mr. Curtis to reconsider the New York Pilot Bill, waa discussed by Hilton, of Maryland, in fivor or tbe Pilots, till morning boar expired, and then the bill on mile was called up, and after a alight discussion it waa passed. 1 Mr.

Thompson, of Mississippi, opposed its passage with very crest violence, and waa opposed to invasions on the ratca now paid.

The bill on mileage allowed bim three hundred dollars for travelling from Washington to his residence in North Carolina; when be in fact could mako thejourney lor leas than forty dollars. Was there any uatice in this 1 Other members were paid at a still more exhorbitant rate, and the evil ought not to be endured.

It did not become those who are making outcry about the expense of the administration to into acta of prodigality or claim more money than they were entitled to. The bill passed, and it ia well enough to add, that in its operations it will reduce the amount of mileage from one hundred and sixteen thousand dollars to less than fifty thousand dollars. Thia reform waa aa successful aa it waa important, and shows what an immense amount of gouging haa been played off by former Congresses. Atbalfpaat two o'clock, the House went into committee of the whole, Mr. Linn Banks, of Virginia, in the chair, and Jlr.

Parrish, of Ohio, concluded an able speech in favor of tbe Sub Treasury Bill, which he commenced yesterday. It was a very able production; was spoken of in terms of tbe highest commendation and the only fault it possessed waa its great length. It waa the maiden speech of the honorable gentleman, and highly creditable to bie talent and ability aa a young statesman, Tbe Senate waa employed all day with docket of private bills.

The stamped covers for letters, which the British government have prepared under the new Postage Refutm act, are elegant envelopes, made of the neatest white paper, printed upon the ouliidd with various devices, resembling very closely the outline illustrations of Relzch. In the specimen before us, large enough to allow of being foldeJ in the form of an ordinary letter, there is a vacant space on ono side of the sheet, intended for the superscription, which is surrounded by the emblematical drawings in outline. At the top is the figure of Britannia, sending out her commerce and arts to characteristic groups of figures representing the natives ofthe four qiartere ofthe globe. On the right side, there are the heads of a family circle, apparently deeply interested in the contents of a letter, snd on tbe left side is an invalid, in a reclining posture, listening to a note which is read by some vounger person. These embellishments are executed with great nicety and taste with to much care it would be quite impossible to counterfeit them without going to great expo nsc.

On the inside ot the covers, the prices of sta mpe, the ratea of postage, and the various regulations of the post office depart ment are conspicuously printed.

Thia is the name of a work written by the Amert can Minister st Paris, Governor Cass, originally as sn article for the Democratic Review, but now pre sen led in the form of a book. It is a series of observations on tbe political and moral condition of French ociety, accompanied by personal anecdotes of King Pbillippe, and the members of his family. The character of the minister, and bis close intimacy moat of the distinguished personages of whom wTitM, entitle his statements to implicit reliance.

We make the subjoined miscellaneous extracts as specimens of the style and tone of the weak. This the account given of the labors of Napoleon, in preparing send completing his famous code I had a conversation not long since with a retired statesman, hcrettf ire a prime minister, and waa an active member of the Council of State the Code Napoleon, that lasting monument of legislative wisdom, was under preparation and dts cussion. He told me the nperor was punctual his attendance at all the meetings, and careful in consideration ol the various subjects which occupied them; evincing wonderful sagacity, and knowledge of tbe intricate questions, embra the whole circle of human eelicn, which were presented for solution.

zail did not fl ig during the progress of these labors, and there was grei' freedom of discussion it being ardently the desire the Emperor that all the important points should subjected to profound examination and fortu nately for the character of the wotk, and for tbo weltare or the country, the Council contained many qualified by their atndiea, habits, and talents, render ilicsc new pandect worthy ot the general intelligence of Ihe age. 1 asked my informant how question ol acceptance or rejection, as the seve chapters camo up for consideration, was determined; and, like a true American, I inqu red if they put lo the vote. He smiled, and aaid there no vjting in Ihe Council of State upon these topics that the Emperor listened patiently to all was said, and then gave his opinion, and thus termtnarea me subject, tie had, indeed, too oitcn iron will and a heavy band, and a grarp ot am1 bition that teemed lo augment aa kingdoms gave before him. His fall was a salutary lesson and useful lo tho world, though the prido tf the country humbled, and ita wishes disregarded in the new transter ot powe Of the manner in which the conscription laws operate, Governor Caas writes as follows By this law every young man, after the age of twenty years, is liable to serve in the army. He drawafor hia chance enrollment, and is then call aa his number and theexisraciea ofthe public ser may require.

He serves seven years, precisely the time of life when he ought to be furmiug himself for his eventual duties, and laying the fouudalion an) respectability he may hope to acquire. It is precisely the period which, with us, if lost, woul be irreparably. The average annual demand of conscripts in France, to keep the army at its requisite num'ter, is eighty thousand and this immense amount is every year drawn from the class of the population in the very spring tune of life, lo be re lumtd such of them indeed, as have the luck, good bad, aa it may be, to return seven yeara after, without any preparation for eventual usefulness. the most remarkable fact in all this institution is pay which these forced soldiers receive a pay which, after making the deductions that go to the government for indispensable supplies, amounts to cent a aay, twenly nve dollara and a hall lor seven yeara' services 1 And vet this process oi mtlitaf supply seems firmly established ana engrafted on the habits of society nor have 1 seen among all the propositions with which the public has been excited. since my rest fence here, for ihe melioration of the existing insutiiimns of the country, a single alliibion this greatest ul all practical oppressions.

And 1 cannot account for this apparent indifference to a subject which strikes every A'nerican with astonish ment, unless it results from the conviction that a bare support is all tbe laboring clashes can procure by the most fortunate exertion, aud that this as well in tbe army as elsewhere. One circumstance, however, renders this arrangement more acceptable than it would otherwise be, and that is its perfect equality, it operates upon ail with the Bamo seventy, and is executed with the most rbii.impar.iality." We find this account of tbe principles and views of secret societies which ao olten disluib the quiet the French metropolis "The judicial proceedings to which I have advert disclosed the existence oi certain secret Eocietiep, also their machinery, principles and objects Their organization appears to have been well adapted the uitciior drsiens of the party. Candidates were admitted with prescribed ceremonies, tending to pro duce a powerlui impression upon tneir lniaguiaiiuns. They were blindfolded, accompanied by a guide, who made the necessary answers, and tork an oath eecrecy and obedience. A poniard was placed in their hands, as a symbol of ihe power of the sotiaty over its members, and they invoked its employment the event or their infidelity.

Tbe members were known by their actual names, but each received a nom de guerre. They were required lo propasate their principles; to make no confessions, if interrogated by the authorities to execute, without reply, orders of their chiefs to furnish then selves with arma and amunition and carefully avoid writing upon the subject of the association. At the initiation series of questions and answers passed between the President and the Candidate, wliich discloses the objects of the association, aud the means it proposed to employ. Tins political catechism is a mixture of the wildest famine, nm and ofthe most ftigiiil'ul cruelly and reveals a s'ate of feeling, and an aberration of principle and, 1 mifcbt almost add, of reason wholly unknown in our calmer and happier coaniry." The following observations occur in the course of some remarks on the practice F.nglish travellers have abusing the people of this country for the slightest departure from English customs: That the fashion of this world passcth awny is early impressed upon every reflecting mind.

We have room only for one more extnet, which is a description of the catacombs under the city of Paris. The author bad been speaking of the frequency with which Marie Antoinette, in her earlier days, visited these dismal regions of the dead: But I must confess, that I surveyed wilh surprise one place associated by tradition with her name, and which assuredly I should have thought presented the last scene a young, beautiful and accomplished woman would desire to visiL This was a stone bench in the catacombs under the city of Paris, which our guide told us had been constructed for tbe temporary repose of tho Aueen and Ihe gay and gallant Count d' Artois, when examining that impressive repository ofthe mortal remains ol masy generations which have died in this great city You know these im mense excavations extend under a considerable part of the capital, and that they have no doubt lurnislied its building mateiiaU, since the earliest times.

If the two acta lately passed by our legislature respecting ths costs of legal proceedings, do not lead lo a full discussioo oi tbe question and a general understanding of the principles which ought to regulate the cost of liti gation, it will not be lbs fault of tbe legal profession.

Bow shall tbe lawyers bo paid, or some remarks upon two sets recently passed on the sub ject ot costs of legal proceedings, in a letter to John Anthon, Esq." ii the title of a pamphlet just pub lisbed jtni understood to be fiorn the pen bl Mr. Theodore Sedgwick. It is a well reasoned esssy, fi.led with useful suggestions, and worthy tbe con sideration of every person interested in Ibe subject snd who is not interested in it that has sny property to protect or sny rights lo defend before the courts 1 To give an analysis of Ibis pamphlet would re quire more loom than yon can well afford me. It is enough to call tbe attention of your readers to its general scope. Thry should read it for themselves It contains an examination of principles wbicb ought lo regulate the matter of coats, and establishes, 1 think, vety satisfactorily, these propositions 1.

That tbe legislature ahould not attempt to regulate the compensation of an attorney, aa between and bis client that the compensation for legal services should be determined as for every other ser by agreement between tbe parties. 2. That the losing party in a law suit should nevertheless be compelled to pay bia adversary an indemnity for the expenses of the prosecution. 3. That this indemnity should be made to depend upon the length of papers, or the number of mo tions, but upon Ihe delay and the amount in con troversy to bo settled at the end of a suit, and to be determined by a per centage upon the amount res covered or claimed.

It is not likely thit any system can be devised which shall be just in all cases. It will often bap that a suitor who has been yeara following an unjust adversary through all Ihe courts, will have in end to deduct from his recovery a large amount the protessional assistance lio has received in the But because no system can bo perfect it docs follow that we should not remedy all the abuses our power. That thero bave been abuses under old system is too apparent and it is equally apparent that tho late legislature has made some great mistakes in its effort to remove them. These must be temporary a sort of half way house in road towards a new and a better system. Every effort therefore to explain the subject, to lead the public mind in a right direction, is a benefit to the community.

Mr. Sedgwick has done well to enter upon the controversy, and I hope his suggestions receive the attention they certainly deserve. This subject of costs, and the reform of our legal system generally, deserves much more serious con. sidcration than our president making legislatures will find time to bestow upon it. It is for the people, to lake the matter up and lo press upon the legislature, a consideration of ibe subject in some sort proportionate to its importance.
