FROM THE NEW-YORK COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER.
POLITICAL PHENOMENA
The Congress of the United States, the supreme power of the land, is now in session, and the Legislatures of twelve States are either now in session, or have been within a few days, viz: Vermont, Rhode-Island, New-Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, North-Carolina, South-Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Missouri. Thus we have the supreme central government in motion, and a great number of others, in many respects equally supreme and independent, like so many planets revolving around it, and in motion at the same time. "Long may these governments continue to move on in harmony, each within its own orbit, and each diffusing its own proportion of warmth, and light, and health and vigour, to the different parts of the political system."
