While Europe seems to be in a troubled condition, and capital there, consequently very unsafe, it may be worth inquiry, whether greater safety may not be found in the United States, as well as more profitable investments.

The strength and stability of the United States government, we consider as having been effectually tested. An examination into its construction and operation, must satisfy the political philosopher, that it is becoming daily stronger. Every motive which could operate upon the interest or the ambition of man to destroy it, has already existed. Every element of self-destruction which might be supposed to prevail from an unsound original organization, from the natural corruption of human nature, or from almost any other cause, has had full time to exert its influence; and all such elements, which can have an existence in the nature of our government, have exerted their utmost power, but to no effect. A part of the citizens of Pennsylvania revolted under the whisky tax. But the national arm, and moral power of society, quieted every thing without bloodshed. Ohio resisted the location of a branch of the United States Bank within her borders, and laid a heavy tax to drive it out, collecting this tax by force. But the national arm soon forced her to restore it. South Carolina made the most fearful opposition to the Federal laws   but she, too, was quieted   other disturbances have existed, but all ended without difficulty; and by whomsoever those difficulties are originated, there is a moral obloquy afterwards resting upon them in the estimation of the other States, and people of the Union, which for ever debars them from political elevation, and is a warning to all future aspirants, who would disturb the general peace, to advance their own selfish purposes.

No sudden uprising against the laws of our country, can ever take place   no rebellion against the government   because it is an intangible thing. With an army of a million of men, all willing to do the bidding of an ambitious leader, our government could not be shaken, because it could not be taken hold of   there is nothing to touch   nothing which can be controlled without the public will. It is not as in Europe, where a possession of the capital   of the public offices   the records    and the throne, or seat from which power radiates, give pos-
