ESDAY, JULY 4, 13:26.
/reparations made iii this place for the
,ttion of ‘the present Anniversary','are
,-we believe, as will give satisfaction to
who" attend. The arrangements are as
.llows':
At sunrise a salute will be fired, and the
liellsrung; at 9 o’clock the company will as-
semble at the Norwalk Hotel ; and at ten the
procession be formed and move to the Meet-
ing-I-Iotise under an escort of Music, and a
‘company of Light Artillery, in uniform. At
the house, the Declaration oflndependeiice
will be read by T. Betts, Esq.; an Oration
delivered by Mr Piiiney, and several pieces of
music performed by the choir. At the close of
these exercises the procession will return to
Mr. Cooke’s, where dinner will be provided.
After the cloth is removed the toasts will he
drank, with the accompaniment of music arid
the discharge of artillery.
The occurrence of so interesting an epoch
-,in the history of our nation as the FlFTXE'l‘XI
Anniversary ofits emancipation from a for
eign yoke is one which ought not to pass away
without peculiar‘ demonstrations of regard
from those who date from it the commence-
ment of their present unspeakable blessings.
To this day belong associations and feelings
ofwhich no other day can boast. It is an era
from which, as from an eminence, we may
look back upon the events of past years, and
__count up, if we can, the transoendant privile
ges we have enjoyed since the day our fathers
burst the bands ofservitude ;aiid calculate, if
we can, the rapidit_y of our advances irr the
path of prosperity and renown during the
Short period we have hada name upon the
catalogue bf nations. But they are incalcu-
lable-innumerable. Filly years ago——and
what were we ?—But a little handful of peo-
ple, despised and trampled upon--witliout
money, without credit, and without friends-
weakened by intestine divisious,—--aiid no
hope but in the righteousness of our cause
and ip the little phalanx of bold hearts who
‘ had resolved to be free; and no trust save in
that snperintendiiig Providence whose arm
had so often beenstretclied forth in our be-
half. Now, how changed the scene ! All
-that heart can desire we enjoy under our liap-
py institutions; and are still holding on in a
course ofimprovcment that in due time shall
place us in the highest rank amongtlie nations
ufthe earth. Our institutions have alrcady'cx-
cited the admirationofthe world,and we doubt
not the time will come when they shall exert
' ,au influence to its remotest corners.
'' With so much reason then to rejoice in the
A day which was the beginning ofour glory-—
flfrom which,,under Providence, our prosperity
-ll?‘ their future security.
and happiness may be daied——ii must afford
~the highest satisfaction to every patriotic bo
som, that such extensive preparations have
been made to hail its approach. But while we
give scope to the feelings of our hearts in
view ofilie blessings of this day——wliile we
make the air resound with acclatnations oi"
jo_v——let us not forget that to a higher power
belongeth all the glory of our condition :—
that it is he who hath led us by the hand thro’
‘the dark scenes we have witnessed, and de-
livcred us from the perilous trials we have en-
countered. ‘And while cherishing such‘ feel-
ings,let the occasion he the means of lighting
up in all hearts the pure flame of patriotism,
and ofre-kindling that devotion to our coun-
try which our fathers felt, when in language
ofthe highest subliniity arid eloquence, they
sent forth to the world the following
Declaration of tlzcir Indqpcmlcnce.
In Congress, July 4th, 1776.
WHEN, in the course of human events, it
hecoines necessary for one people to dissolve
the political bands which have connected
them with another, and to assume, among
the powers of the earth, the separate $5 equal
station, to which the laws ofnaiure and ofna-
ture’s God entitle them, a rie»:-.ent respect to
the opinions of mankind requires, that they
"should declare the causes, which impel them
to the separation.
'We hold these truths to be self-evident,-
That all men are created equal; that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain unal-
ienable rights; that among these are life, lib-
erty, and the pursuit of happiness :-—That to
secure these riglits,governinenis are instituted
among men, deriving theirjust powers from
the consent oftlie governed ; that whenever
any form of goyernment becomes destructive
to these ends, it is the right of the people to
alter or to abolish it,and to instifute a new go-
vernment, laying its foundation oriisticli prin-
ciples, and organizing its powers in such form,
as to them shall seem most likely to effect
their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed,
will dictate, that governments long establish-
ed should not be changed for light and tran-
sient causes; and accordingly all experience
hath shown, that mankind are more disposed
to suffer, while evils are suffer-able, than to
right themselves, by abolishing the forms to
which they are accustomed. But when along
train of abuses and usurpations, pursliing in-
variably the same object, evinces a design to
reduce them under absolute despotism. it is
their right, it is their duty, to throw off such
government, and to provide new guards for
Such has been the pa-
“tient sulferancelof these colonies ; and such is
._r now the necessity which constrains them to
_alter their former systems of government.—
Tligliistory of the present King of G. Britain,
is a history of repeated injuries and usurpa-
tions, all having in direct object the establish-
ment of an absolute tyrannyiover these states.
To prove this, let facts be stibmitted to a can-
did world.
He has refused his assent to laws the most
wholesome and necgssary‘ for the public go
2
./has forbitltlen his governors to pass laws
. imtnetiiate'aud pressing important-.e, unless
suspended in their operation, till his assent
should be obtained ; and when so suspended-
Iie has utterly neglected to attend to them.—-
He has refusetl to pass other laws for the ac.
commodation of large districts of people, tiri-
less those people would relinquish the right of
representation in the legislature—--a right es-
timable to them, $2. formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at
places untistial, uricoinfortable~, and distant
from the repository oftheir public records,for
the sole purptisfi offatigtiing then) itito com-
pllance. with his measures. _
He has dissolved representative houses re-
peatredly, for opposing, witlilniaitly fitmness,
his invasions on the rights ufthe people.
He has reltised, for a long time alter such
disgnlulions, to cause others to be elected ;—-
whereby the legislative powers, incapable ol
annihilation,have returned to the people at.
large, for their t-xercise, ;.the state reinaiiiing,
m the meantime, exposed to all the -dangers
from witliout.aitd convulsions within.
He has ._-mleavorerl _r.‘. prevent the popula-
tion of these states; for that purpose. ob-
structing the laws_ol' naturalization of foreign-
crs ; refusiiig to passotliers to encourage their
migration hitlier, and raising the conditions
of new appropriations oflarids.
He has obstructed the administration of
j-.istrce,b_v refusing his assent to laws for estab-
lishing judiciary powers.
He has made judges dependent on his will
alone, for the tenure oftheir offices, and the
:rinouiit and payment of their salaries
He has erected a multitude ofnew offices,
and sent Iiilher sn.-rtus ofofficers, to harass
our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace,
standing armies, without the consent of on
Legislator*es. . "
I-Ieiias affected to rendertlie military in-
dependent of, and superior to. the civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us
to a jtirisdiction loreign to our Constitution,
and unacknowledged by our laws ; giving his
assent to their actslofpreteuded legislation:
For qriartering large bodies ofarmed troops
among us:
For protecting them, by a mock trial, from
punishment for any mu. tiers which theysliould
commit on the inhahitaiits of these states:
For cutting tiff our trade with all parts of
I.lIP world:
For imposing taxes on us without our con-
sent :
For depriving its, in many cases of the ben-
-‘slits of trial by jury :
For transporting us beyond seas to be tried
for pretended offerirzes : ,
For abolishing the free system ofEnglish
laws in a neighboring province, establishing
therein an arbitrary government, and enlarg-
ing its boundaries, so as to render it, at once,
an example and lit instrument for introducing
the same absolute rule into these colonies:
For taking away our charters, abolishing
our most valuable laws, and altering, funda-
mentally, the forms ofour governments :
For suspending our own Legislatures, and
declaring tlietnseives invested with power to
legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated government here, by de-
claring us out of his protection, and waging
war against us :
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our
coasts, burnt otir towns, and destroyed the
lives ofotir people.
He is, at this time, transporting large ar-
mies of foreign mercenaries to complete the
works of death. desolation, and tyra_nny, al-
ready begun, with circumstances of cruelty
and perlidy, scarcely paralleled in the most
barbarous ages,and totally unworthy the head
ofa civilived nation. ‘
He has constrained our fellow citizens, ta-
ken captive on the high seas, to bear arms a-
gainst their country, to become the execu-
iioners oftheir friends and brethren, or L3 lall
themselves by their hands. .
He has excited domestic insurrectio us a
mongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on
the inhabitants ofotir frontiers the merciless
Itidian savages, whose known rule of Warfare
is an undistinguished destruction of all ages,
sexes, and conditions. _
In every stage ofth ese oppressions we have
petitioned for redress, in the tnost humble
terms: our repeated petitions have been an-
swered only by repeated injury. .APTlnC9s
whose character is thus marketl by every act
which may define a tyrant, is unlit to be the
ruler ofafree people. _ _ _
Nor have we been wanting in attention to
our British brethren. We have warned them
from time to time, ofatternpts, by their legis
lature, to extend an unwarrantaule _]lll‘lSdlc-
tion over us. “To have reminded them oftlie
circumstances ofour emigration and settle-
ment here. VVe have appealed to their na-
tivejnstice and magnauiirnty ;_ and we have
conjured them, by the ties of our common
kindred, to disavow these usurpations, \\ liich
would inevitably interrupt our connections
and correspondence. They, too, have been
deafto the voice ofjustice, and of consaugu 1-
nity. Vile tnust, therefore, acquiesce in the
necessity, which denounces our separation,
$2. hold them as we hold the rest oftnankind,
enemies in war, in peace friends.
We, therefore, the representatives of the
U, States of Arne.-ica, in general Congress
assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge
oftlie worltl,for the rectitude ofour intentions,
do, in the name and by the authority of the
good people ofthesc colonies, solemnly pub-
lish and declare, that these united colonies
are,nnd ofright ought to bc,free and indepen-
dent states ; that they are absolved from all
allegiance to the 35- rtish crown, and that all
political connexion between them and the
State of Great-Britain, is, and ought to be,
totally dissolved ; and that as free and inde-
pendent states. they have lull power to levy
war, conclude peace, contract alliances, es-
tablish coinmerce, and to do all other acts
and things, which independent states may of
right do. And for the support ofthis declar
ation, wit.h a firm reliance on the protection
of Divine Providence, we mutually pledgeto
each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sa
cred honour.

Natcliiéoches, May l5.—The authorities in
Texas have warned traders trading to that
Province, not to take goods to sell to theCoin-
inanclia Indians. Traders have lierctoforc,
carried on an extensive and often very lucra-
tive trade with those lndians, one ofthe most

are continually at war with the 'Mcxicans,and

Inhtiman.-—A Baltimore paper, not long
since, contained the following article : Yes-
terday, at ten o’clock in this . Cliristian city,
under the authority ofthe Orphair’s Court, a
mother with four children, the eldest not more
than 6 or 7lycars old, and the youngest at the
breast, were put tip at public vendue b_v a
Southern Slave dealer. The spectacle was
fitted to barrow tip all the tender sensibilities
ofnature. The mother, a inatroiilike, inter-
esting woman, was overcome with grief; the
children, who were old enough to know their
_sad condition,wept so bitterly as almost might
melt a heart of stone. The auctioneer, how-
ever, perlorined his part. in the inostunfeel-_
ing manner, Half a dozen slave dealers
were present, and the family were kuoclied
down to a slave dealer of New Orleans. and
were iniitiedirrtely shipped for that. pl:rce.--
This happened ditriiig the sitting of the court,
and there were iuaiigt spectators, who, to their
credit be it said, expressed strong indignatioii
at the shameful outrage, though, as the deed
\\'as sanctioned by the laws ofthe, state, they
could not interpose to prevent it.
A slave dealer in the district of Colombia,"
advertises—-—“ Negroes wantetl.--l-l::v.iig re
cently taketi a liousc, two doors east oftlie
Union Stage Ollice, Georgetown.where I ex-
pect to be prepared to purchase negroes, and
will at all times give as good prices as the
times will justify, &Lt:.”—'l‘hi,-i trade in liuinan
flesh is one ofthe most profitable and exten-
sive branches ofbusiness in the sacred capital
ofthis Republic, and, we may atltl, the most
disgraceful. \Vc should feel indebted to any
t-.-suist, who would point otit the relative de-
grecs ofinoral turpitude between the Slave-
dealer, who makes it his business to purchase
slaves upon the coast of Africa, and he who
drives a regular trade ofthe same kind upon
the coasts ofVirgi;ria and Maryland. Is it any
worse for the poor black of Africa to be torn
from his family and friends there, and taken
to Cuba, than for the American black to be
torn from the same relatives in Marylaiitl, and
sent to the same brakes ofLouisiana P--Spec.
A negro died suddenly on Thursday at the
house of correction in Boston. In noticing
the. Coroner’s Inquest, the Boston Traveller
says: “ It is very remarkable that this man
spoke live languages correctly and fluently;
could repeat Shakspeare from beginning to
end, and possessed, beside this, an uncommon
fund of drollery. During the greater part of
Napoleon’s wars, he was a servant to dilfereiit
officers ofdistinction, where he had an op-
portunity of acquiring information and per-
fecting himself in waggishness. Interoper-
ance was probably the cause of his death, re-
sulting in a general disease and disorganiza-
tion ofitnportant organs.”
Smyrna Pupcrs.—-\Ve have been favoured
with a file oftlie Spectator to the Slst 'rVIaich.
'.I‘lit:y mention that Col. Fabvier, (whom the
laie French accounts had mentioned as hav-
ing relieved Missoloughi,) had iuarched from
Athens with his corps of tlisciplined Greeks.
and captured the fortress ofCaristo in Negro-
porit. This ttie Spectator considers a matter
ofsmal! moment,and that every thing will
depend on the fate ofhlissolonghi.
Letters from Candia mention that the
Greeks still held the fort of Carabutla on the
western extremity ofCandia : and that some
bands ofinsurgents continued in the moon-
tains ; but that arrangements had been made
with Mtistapha Bey, with several Greek loyal
captains, to disperse them.
The papers make loud complaints ofthe
piracies continually made by the Greek cor-
salts on the European merchantmen of all
flags.—The Spectator pronounces a brilliant
eulogium on the Viceroy of Egypt-—-the great
Man who has restored from ruins the Cradle
ol' the Sciences, and covered a once desolated
country with canals, workshops, and marin-
l'acttires.——Boston Ccntinel.
