Str, To the Editor of the Bee. 
‘T wave been a subscriber to your work from the 
beginning, and have remarked, with pleasure, that, in 
conducting it, you discover a manly independence and 
firmnefs of mind, that disdains alike to bend to the in- 
fluence of power, or to stoop to the meaner complian- 
ces that are sometimes required to court popular ap- 
plause. I have not been able to perceive in your tucu- 
brations the smallest germ of prejudice against, or fa- 
vour forany party, but, throughout the whole, a gene- 
rous desire to promote the prosperity of your native 
country, wherever it seemed to.come within the reach 
of your own power. These considerations have in- 
duced me to make choice of your Miscellany as a 
proper vehicle for communicating to the public a few 
observations, that appear to me to deserve the very 
serious attention of the people in the present crisis, | 
which many consider as very alarming, but which I 
myself cannot yet view in that light. If you approve 
of the specimen sent, be so kind as_publifh it without
