Tile red-tapista never require more close, anxious watching than when they affect to be in the mood conceding and conciliatory. It is this consideration which induces us to spend a few words on the com ments with which the Downing-street organ thought fit or was instructed to accompany its yesterday's an nouncement of the appointment of Mr. BABKLY to be Governor of British Guiana: on no other grounds could they be entitled to such attention. Jamb Omnium, or whoever has held the pen on this occasion, advises the government to adopt a more economical mode of administering colonial affairs; but is careful to de this in language most disparaging to the policy which he recommends. He deals with it like the nasty clown who spat in the dish he offered to a neighbour at table while wishing to reserve it te himself. Cheap government of the colonies the writer in the Times more than half hints " may entail upon the colonies governors less able, less honest, and of less experience than men like Lord ELGIN, Sir C. Itinicaufe, and Lord HARRI 4 ;" and " may introduce into their governments a mean, and peddling and mercenary policy, with a mean, and petty and parasitical tribe of bangers-on." " It is an abominable and mischievous thing, this cheap colonial government," says the Times aloud what Downing-street whispers to it, " but since both the old country and the colonial public have set their hearts upon it, let them have it, and much good may it do them." This is too palpably spitting in the dish. What the writer upon whom we are animadverting says of cheap colonial government is, however, true, as he understands the phrase. He contemplates no alteration in the administrative system at present panned, bat merely a reduction in the number of employed and the diminution of their pay. r. gal would employ fewer of the retainers of Downing-street, and he would give these few lower salaries ; bat he would still centralise all administrative power in the Colonial-office, and em rai.ts retainers only, though an inferior class of This would be, indeed, to make bad worse. , It is true that the three names he has selected are nst properly specimens of our colonial governors, hat exemptions from the general character oft he class. Among the TORRINOTONS, FALKLANDS, and FITZ son, yea might search in vain for a fourth to place bolds tint. It is true that even their merits are acne of a negative than a positive kind. The sole merit of Lards ELGIN and Hamm consists in their having best able to govern colonies without render ing themselves odious or contemptible in the eyes of the colonists ; and even the immeasurably supe rior Lord METCALFE was unable to effect more in Canada than to gain at one election a parliamentary majority, and instal in office a ricketty and patchwork ministry, which fell in pieces by its owa weight as soon u he was re moved. The best men of the existing system of esiotial government are indifferent enough ; but these can be no doubt that if the third and fourth rate retainers of Downing-street are to be substituted far its first-rate men, if Downing-street is to continue se meddling as ever, and if Barbados and Antigua are to be ruled by the officers commanding the garri sons in them islands, under Downing-street satraps in Jamaica and Trinidad (as recommended in the Times) —the change may possibly be for the worse. asleep colonial government will be a fallac_y if it is M be Witftietered from Downing-street by Downing at agents. The sincere advocates of reform in our eelesial administration, do not confound " low ▪ s with economical government. They think =A too dear if given for nothing. Their of einnoonsiag oelenial government is by bootag the inholitasts of one okay free to organise tbsitaietumembe asearding to the wants and means et impeatles eaunntteitiea In no other way 1111 esesanty end olleieney be combined in the matter of went. The red-tapists who inspired the in yesterday's Times know this ; and calculate upon being able to persuade the public that the ineffi ciency of their plan of womanised government is the result of iimimshed cost, not of had organisation. In recommending such retrenchment they still keep spit ting in the dish. Nor is Downing-street prepared to submit even to a temporary curtailment of expenditure, patronage, and jobbing. The cloth cut off on one aide of the mantle that covers the foxes is to be sewed oa imme diately on the other. " Make the Bahamas and Turk's Island," it is said in the Times, " what they should be, military and naval stations, with twi or twl .;• THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 29. 1848. of that enormous incubus brought home to the bosoms ot all. We say, then, that on the simple around of his I pledging himself in favour of thorough and search ing retrenchment, even were his declarations in favour of other popular measures less derided than they are, Sir Ctmuso EARDLET is well deserving of the welcome which he has met with from the electors of all the districts which he has yet had time to ennuis. three forts, • regiment d infantry, and • frigate or tete Whii s ould they be navel sad military statists P should gotta be erected and sadism sent to 031111 too poor to attract invaders P Why eboidd frigates be stationed when they can serve DO Ilertbil P TIN civil establish ment of the Behests:.

The regiment alone would not east oilers than 33,0001. per annum. This would be a curious method of diminishing national ex penditure, and curtailing government patronage. The sole aim of the scheme recommended in the organ of the colonial-office, and its only posable re sult, le to increa se pu blic expenditure in two depart manta while curtaili ng it in one; and to diminish ex penditure in such a way as to throw discredit on re trenchment, and produce a re-action against economy in public opinion. The concessions held out by the red tapists of Downing-street, are meant only to mystify and delude. The colonists on the one hand, and the advocates of retrenchment in public expenditure in this country on the other, will do well to be on their guard against these insidious advances. In how far is the personal character of the new governor of British Guiana a guarantee that he will not unconsciously lend himself to be an instrument to this wily game ? It is not easy to my. Mr. Banat , ' has a con siderable stake in the colony ; he is a man of more than average intelligence, and, for a conservative, really liberal and independent in his opinions.

Bet he hes never yet been placed in a situation to try whether be be endowed with the clear-sightedness, eelf-relianee, and immova ble pertinacity of purpose which will be required for the successful discharge of the difficult task he has been persuaded to undertake. And unfortunately his connexions have been almost exclusively with the Jacob (Minium class—a body of men vastly in ad vance of the rest of what is known in this country by the name of the West India interest, but neither fitted by prevMus habits for the bold, active, and self-deny ing course of action which the exigencies of the times require at their hands, nor sufficiently impressed with • conviction that it is inevitable. Tire tories are in peat pain for Mr. Rounuca. They overwhelm him with sympathy and commisera tion, and weep to think how ill-used he has been by every liberal voter of the West Riding not rallying behind him. Mr. ituatircK will not be the dupe of this crocodile affection. lie must know that the sole cause of disappointment with the retrogrades is, that ho does not come forward to divide the liberal party, and thus throw the chance of somas into the hands of the protectiGnista. There is no member of the liberal party whew presence in the House of Commons is more desirable than Mr. Itoeurek's; and it reflects no little disgrace on liberal constituencies that such a man should not be placed in that sphere where none can be more useful. Hut, for a host of reasons, the West Riding is not the sphere in which Mr. ROEBU'CK'S coming forward is likely either to restore him to his place in the House of Commons or to benefit the great liberal cause. Such convictions prevailed the other day at Leeds, and yesterday at Maw:heater, where a meeting of liberal electors was held to consider the best candi date for the West li ding ; Mr. 0. WILSON wag in the chair. Mr. lizasnaw, M.l'., and Mr. BRIGHT moved and seconded resolutions to support Sir CUL LING EARDLEY. They were carried unanimously, and a committee appointed to canvass on behalf of the hon. baronet. We must own that after reading Sir CULLING EARDLET'S speech and explanations at Leeds we see good reason, not only to support the claim of such a candidate for the confidence of Yorkshiremen, but to congratulate the reform party on the acquisition of so plain-spoken and bold thinking an English ger tlenu.n. And, moreover, the example is a great and salutary one of how well the strongest religious sentiment can be made to ally with the great pnnciples of religious tolerance and political liberality. Sir Cettino disavows alike the religious ascend ancy of the Irish Orange school, or the ascendancy of the Saxon race, as preached by the llama in its cru sade against the Celt. He professes himself devoid ot those two great sources of malignity. With no wish to assail the Protestant establishment, out of re spect for existing institutions, he would still prefer seeing Ireland with na endowed church,' to seeing her saddled with two. This is plain: and manly speaking ; and, as might be ex pected, it has drawn down upon the utterer the bitter I I hostility of every shade of toryism. With the Mess it is the extreme of political and religious malignity. Whilst from the PEEL organ it calls forth one of the most insolent denunciations of dissent that the En - fish press has ever ventured. The Standard itself would have blushed at such bigotry. It was reserved for the Morning Chronicle to utter in the nineteenth century the superannuated vituperations of LAUD. But we are not surprised at the sholer of the tortes. Foe were the liberal and middle classes of England to sink their religious differences, whilst purrsing great political ends, half the scaffolding ea which the eminence of the governing parties is built, would at once fall to the ground ; and even if they continued to govern, they would at least be obliged to attend to the real interests and wishes of the people, instead of cheating their ears and galling their senses with bigot and religious cries, without sense, seriousness, or sincerity. Looking to the obstinate and interested opposition which the came of retrenchment and reform is certain to receive from the wealthy and corrupt of every shade of political opinion, we do not sue how that op. position is to be met, unless by making the desire to promote those aims paramount to all other consider's tions in the choice of a candidate, and fusing into one great mass of influential opinion the minor differences I and distinctions which have arisen out of questions, once the subject of fi erce debate, hut now most of them decided beyond appeal. The old distinc tions of whig and tory are acknowledged to be virtually extinct: the ancient landmarks of party are no more to be seen. Not, in deed, that the ambition and cupidity which gene rated those great parties are one whit less active than ever they were. But two new parties are in i process let formation. The aristocracy of the empire s re dividing itself into two powerful sections, prepared, I like the old, incessantly to contend with each other for power and place ; sacrificing meanwhile the in terests, and betraying the rights, of the people, as party motives shall dictate. - We say then that this is not the time for the people to allow themselves to be set at variance by the revivil of prejudices and jealousies which it would have been greatly for their advantage if they had never weakened their real strength by nurturing to the extent to which they did. A new popular party must be formed on a wider, deeper, and more lasting I basis than any . that has yet existed. And the more perfect the union of the lower and middle classes in the cause of retrenchment and reform, the greater diversity must be looked for in the non essential opi nions ot their leaders. The old shibboleths of political or polemical discord, capital ox-goads as they were when whig leaders and tory leaders drove the I people like cattle whither they listed, will fall more and more into discredit and disuse the more clearly it is perceived that the great end of the new move ment is a practical and economical one, in which the interests of all sects and parties and classes are equally concerned ; save and except of those who profit by the abuses which it is sought to abolish. The success of the Anti-Core Law League was in a great measure owing to the instinctive sense of the real bearing of that question, which prevailed am rig the people i and which no amount of prejudice or misrepresenta tion could deaden or eradicate from the minds of those who were daily paying hard-earned money for their children's bread. Similar in its workings, and we trust not lees glorious in its results, will be the movement for RETRENCHMENT, when once the mighty meaning of that word, as applied to Sixty Millions of squandered Taxes, shall have become familiar to the public thought—when "nee the work ing of the giant iniquity shall have been laid bare, and the blessings implied in even a partial decrease GERMANY joritv have all but officially declared that the dispute I will be at an end so moon as the Brandenburg ministry is dissolved, and the Assembly is oonrened again in Berlin. To no other terms will they agree. The number of addresses to the National Assembly is variously stated, ranging from 760 to 6,000. Certain it is that, several days ago, the former number was officially registered in the ar chives. The pro-rector and senate of the University of Halle have drawn up a declaration, warmly advo cating the course punned by his Prussian Majesty. NAPLES, Nov. 17. The elections have just terminated, and unfavour ably to the present ministry. The city of Naples has re turned six liberals, two of whom, General Pepe and Selland, being both of them absent from Naples, will be unable to act as deputies; the choice of them, durables, must be regarded as only • Moog expression of public opinion. Othsr two are said to be eapo.laaaaroni, one a seller of old furniture, and the other of Sour. Such of the returns from the provinces se are yet made. are anti-ministerialist. How the ministers eon work such a chamber remains to be seen, for the majority against them of 35 previously will of GOUTSe now amount to a mush higher figure. Out of 17,000 voters in Naples, only 1,000 came forward at this election. The Chamber is to open on the 29th instant, and some important measures are 'spooled to be proposed. The immense military prepare dons that are going on, and to which I have already alluded, are well deserving of attention. All the forts towards the sea have been doubly fortified, and are bristling with cannon. Within the last few days the walls seaward surrounding the arsenal have been considerably elevated ; and various other works of a similar kind have been or are to be mad,. At the same time the army is still being much augmented. Good authority makes it amount at the present time to 90,000 ; and I am informed that much trouble is being taken to form a cavalry for acting on the mountains, which appears to indicate the determination of the king to carry out his plans on Sicily should diplomacy fail. His majesty still con fines himself to his palace. Two days dace he reviewed a regiment of lancers within the arsenal adjoining the palace. His great dependence seems to be placed on the military, who may in fact be said to be themasters of everything, and presume much on their present positin. Many arrests have been made lately,—of Donne , I mean for political reasons— and it would seem that the eel...tones of secret societies has been discovered. Whilst the political state of Naples is thus agitated, its social state becomes daily worse and worse; misery and starvation literally stalk through the streets, which are crowded with beggars. At night the city is de serted, such is the danger of beingstopped and robbed, and . so ill-guarded is every part. Nor the misery confined to the lower classes ; there is no commerce, end the shop. keepers are as badly off as any cites. Mr. Temple is daily . expected. Lord Napier had an in terview with his majesty yesterday, to present a letter of oondolence on the death of the queen-mother. Great interest is felt here in the settlement of the Sicilian question, and we have daily reports of the arrival of the ultimatum. It is now said that it was brought on Sunday, from St. James's, approved by the French, Russian, and Neapolitan ambaasadors, and pledges England to enforce the acceptance of the conditions by the Siciliens. !give it, however, with great caution, ; it is certainly true that • queen's mes sengar arrived here on Sunday with despatches. Meanwhile, the feeling in Sicily towards the king is not a whit less' bitter. I have seen a letter just arrived from Maoism and written by an English resident there. He says : " A few days since the tax on grinding corn (enseino) was taken off, • great boon, which, had it been granted twelve months since, might have saved the outbreak; but unfortunately the court of Naples does nothing with a good grace, or until it is too late, Spite of the military who fill the city, the bills announcing the lact nue torn from the walls by the people, and stamped under foot—nothing can conciliate them. The mountineers in the neutral came around !detains, it is said, will accept no col - Atka+ trout the king." Troops left Naples a few days ago for Calabria, where brigandage is being carried on on • very extensive scale. 1 The intelligence of the death of Ibrahim Pacha which has arrived adds still more to the complication of affairs in the Mediterranean. The Sidon was instantly despatched to Alexandria, to learn the correctness of the report. A por tion of the French fleet is, it is said, to sail for the Levant immediately. The Vengeanoe, now at Beim, is expected to be sent to Syracuse within a few days. A French vessel (Friedland), going into harbour at Babe the other day, nearly ran aground. The Porcupine, which was much in jured by an American vessel, entering the port of Leghorn, a short time since, is, it is said, to go to Malta to repair The Queen left this morning for Babe. The Liberfti of this morning has : " Alexander Perin has died on the field of glory, combatiug for the holy cause of independence. A subscription has been opened, to raise a modest monument to our fellow.eitizen." Notes can more folly deprecate the predominance of a mob than we do ; none can be more convinced, than we are,that any system or chime, which places the enlightened classes of a community under the guidance or control of the unenlightened and unprovided deplorable, and for any length of time unendurable, being tot only a mast cruel oppression of the en lightened clam, but a very useless and pernicious en joyment of power by the lower orders, who in arms can destroy old institutions, but are incapable of founding new ones. But admitting all this, it must also be acknowledged that there are countries and governments in which the old despotisms are still more intolerable, and where revolution is the only means of arriving at anything better. A tory journal the other day com pared France and England, end, allowing the many benefits which France had *Naked from its great revolution, alleged that it had paid too dearly even for those benefits by the utter destruction of all principle of sovereignty or authority. This, however, has been the fault of French rulers, not of tke French people. And the tory writer forgets altogether and puts out of view the circumstance, that England itself made two revolutions, which placed our throne upon a mach firmer basis, and gave us all the blessings we possess in civil and religions liberty. Revolutions are, however, like all powerful medi cines, dangerous if not wisely made use of. And it is the duty of the people, as well as of statesmen, to study what, we repeat, is a natural phenomenon. There exists already a science of impeder discontent, and if we were called upon to state the first axiom of it, we should say, that wherever the middle and lower class become united in exe cration of any government, that government is un tenable, and can only oscillate between tyranny and insurrection. Now, in all the parts and spots of Europe, in which revolution has lately broken forth, it was never the lower class which stirred first : the populace never rose, but at the example and bidding of the middle class. The middle class are, in fact, the counsellors, the lower orders the soldiers, of insurers°. Lion ; it only breaks forth when one calls out the other. lint the victory once Raised over the old despotic autho rity, there then ensues the difficulty of satisfying the populace, the soldiers of insurrection, and of bringing back their excited minds to industry, and to the wholesome control of authority. How easily this can be done the history of Pails during the last six months of 1830 is a proof. The great element of success, indeed the indispensable element, is the arming of the citizens as a national guard, and the I formation of a government or a party in authority, which has the confidence of this national guard, and whose object must be not brutally to repress, but to conciliate and gradually restore the lower orders to a normal amid tranquil state. Countries generally manage to do this satisfactorily when lett to themselves. When, however, to the trouble, fear, and effervescence of this domestic anarchy are superadded three's, and dangers, and interference from abroad, then the process is disturbed—the lower class, instead of being allowed to settle down, is re excited, summoned to anus, forced to act the legislator and the soldier, whilst the middle class loses its in fluence, and the revolution, instead of being arrested, is perpetuated. Such was Paris in the great revolu tion, menaced by the coalition of foreign sovereigns. And such are all the free states and cities of Italy, menaced by an armed ri action and invasion from Austria, and prevented from settling down, as they naturally would, were Italy left to its intern al strug gles and national independence. There is no fact more clearly established in the his tory of the French revolution, than that it was the threats of foreign armieswhich enabled the republicans to triumph over the moderate constitutionalists, and subsequently the jumbling over the moderate re publicans. It is Reeerset's triumph and menace in Lombardy which have driven the people of Flo rence and of Rome into • mingled state of terror and audacity, during which the people have flung off all guidance and insisted on power being in the redo hands which alone were trusted. Above all, the l'epo became tho object of mistrust to his people. The natural desire of a sacerdotal sovereign was to keep peace, to forbid his subjects to war, and neutralise any martial effort being made in his dominions for the liberty of Italy. The spirit of the l'ope's subjects, above all of the Itionagneee, naturally rebelled against this; and the suspicion arose that the l'ope had a secret understanding with Austria. In an evil day the Pope bethought him of entrust ing power to one of the Gutzon school of politicians. Count Rossi was an able diplomatist, a man of great talent and acquirements, but resistance to popular demands was his . principle, con tempt for popular opinion his device. There is no use in such defiance unless a minister has a devoted army at his back; M. Outzor's fall proved it. Count hosier undertook to defy the opposition of all classes in Rome and all parties in the Roman parliament. True to the OUIZOT policy, so proned by the Timm, he would make no use of the civic guard. Ills reliance was on • regiment of earabineers, which he summoned to Rome, and to which he entrusted the guard of the parliament. The official journal of Rome was as defi ant as those of Paris. It denounced the national guard, the liberals, and the parliament. And when that parliament met, there were about half-a-dozen members behind the ministerial bench, all the rest had crowded to the:Left. When M. OUIZOT last entered the French Chamber of Depu ties he was greeted with cries from the nationa l gurirds of A Gas Guizot !" to which he returned a look of defiance. The unfortunate Rossi was inspired by the self-same spirit, perhaps by the reminiscence of his friend, for when he, too, came to the door of the Roman parliament, and encountered looks and shouts of hostility, be replied by a gesture of defi ance and contempt. This was too much for Roman patience, and the foremost ruffian did, what is the habitual impulse of an Italian, drew his stiletto, and plunged it into the unfortunate minister's throat. After this insensate act of guilt, came, of couree,the deluge. The populace rose in arms, they besieged the Pope's palace, and, under a threat of setting fire to it and exterminating all within, compelled the dis missal of the Swiss guards and the appointment of a democratic ministry. The final result of this will, no doubt, be the march of the Austrian troops, in obedience to a papal summons, iuto Rome, and, of course, into Florence. There may be more or less resistance, more or less bloodshed, bat the upshot may at ouoo be foreseen, viz., the delivering up of the peninsula, from one end to the other, to the RADETSKIS, the WINDISCLIGRATZ6B, and the Menge/4101S. All the efforts of the last years will have been thrown away, and the despotic and barbarizing flood of the modern Huns will over run Italy, and tread from out it every spark of intel lect, freedom, and commerce, just as ATTILA did four teen centuries ago. We do not altogether acquit the Italian populace of having in their folly much contributed to this disaster, but in our opinion the rulers of Italy have been still more culpable and foolish. And as to the I unfortunate Count Ross; we will say this, al though we think him to have been an honest sad " conscientious man, that had Austria employed a subtl' agent to bring affairs at Rome to a troublous [Alois, such as would afford a good pretext for inter vening and stifling liberty, that Austrian agent could not have pursued a course more astutely calculated for his purpose than the whole conduct and policy of sot Rossl. NEW YORK, Nor. 14. During the last week, the American politicians have been engaged in counting up the electoral votes of the different states. The predictions made by me in my former letters have been entirely fulfilled by the ascertained results. General Taylor is elected the next president of the United States. His majority is a very large one, hut not so great as that of General Harrison in 1340, who received 234 electoral votes. At the recent election some singular elements of distrac tion were introduced. The secret history of their origin is nothing , In.n no lam then the personal wievatent of Mr. Van Buren. No American statesman of the north ever sustained the policy of the southern states as did this gentle. man. His intimacies, his relations, his obligations, all tended to make him a close ally of the slaveholders, and he went further in and out of place to sustain their views than any other: northern politician. But, in consequence of his being sacrificed at the Baltimore conven tion, he resolved to defeat the influence that de feated him. The free soil ques•ion was raised by his parti sans, and his son, of whom I have spoken in a former letter, entered into the canvass without hesitation and with out fear, and it was for a father that he exerted himself. The indelicacy of the action itself appeared to be entirely over looked by the thousand' who listened to his harangues. The question thus raised iproved to be a two-edged sword. It cut the whip to their very hearts in the states of Ohio, Illinois,: end Indiana, two of which were usually safe for them. It helped them in the states of New York and Pennsylvania. But as the gain and the loss seemed to neu tralise each other, we do not consider that " free soii" in any way determined the present result. This must be very much ascribed to a natural feeling of gratitude on the part of the people to a man who discovered great abilities in the field and displayed them to their honour, and else to the firmness, yet modesty, of his deportment under the trying circumstances attending his nomination. Much also is due to the feet that the people at large wee. disposed to rebuke the leaders of the parties who have so successfully embroiled the nation in difficulties without a real cause or necessity, and who, under the pretence of patriotism, have too long ap propriated to themselves and their factions the power and the dienities of the nation. The triumph is complete, and the consequences will be salutary. It is quite impossible to predict what the opinions of Oen. Taylor will be on many points ; but, as the whigs will have a large majority in the Rouse of Representatives, and pro bably walleye, in another year or two, a majority in the Senate, it is quite probable that some of their favourite measures will be adopted. I believe that neither Mr. Webster nor Mr. Clay will form a part of the new cabinet. Both these gentlemen have been unfavourable to the nomination of Gen. Taylor, and, in addition, it is probable they would be but too ready to give a partisan tone to the new administra. ton if they were a pert of it. The imprecation is that he will surround himself with moderate men—l mean by that, men of moderated views. His secretary of war will probably be Major Bliss, a gentleman long a member of his milita r y family and his comrade in the hour of danger. This gentleman, somewhat celebrated since the war with Mexico, was educated at our military academy at West Point, one of the severest schools through which • young man can pass. He was there so distinguished an Akre, that his fellow-students gave him the name of " Perfect Bliss." He is a man of extraordinary abilities, and a fine scholar. He certainly would make a brilliant rat the head of the war department even in peace. e re truth is, that our numerous porta on the Atlantic and the Lakes, and our outposts in our new territories, require superior admiListrative qualities, and now that our drum beat is to be heard on the Pacific, and our marches like those of Xenophon are to be long ,_and through hordes of enemies, the American Secretary of War hes enough te engage his undivided attention. It it supposed that Mr. Themes Butte Kline, of Georgia, will be the next Secretary of the Navy. as been dis tinguished while in Congress by his extreme desire to pro mote the interests of the service, as well as that of our steam marine—a marked contrast to those stereoty pod officials whose incubations are those of the chicken-hearted, and whose world is their own egg shell. But for the dogged inaction of our Postmaster-General and Secretary of the Navy, and their utter opposition to everything like progress, we should ere now have had twenty new steamers afloat, and an earlier arrangement of our postal difficulties. We cannot help noticing one curious fact, that our Secretaries of the Nay) moat usually are Liken from st.stes that have little or no commerce. The service is, however, a desirable one and an honourable one, and very much desired by our southern youth. It is believed that Mr. Crittenden, the present Governor of Kentucky, and formerly Attorney• General of the United States under Oen. Harrison, will have some place in the new cabinet, while Truman Smith, a 'lug senator from Connec ticut, a very highutinded and able man, will also be called to some department. It is also quite probable that a mmafication of the tariff will be effected in relation to our products of coal and iron, and while the incorporation of a United States Bank is totally out of the question, some alteration will be made in the sub-treasury law, by which the excessive accamutations of specie in the custom-hone vaults will be prevented. The genera policy of the country will continue fixed as at pre sent. We also anticipate occaaimal grants from the govern went for the aid of those internal improvements which will clearly benefit the nation at large, such as appropriations for the improvement of the harbours of the lakes, and of the rivers connecting the grist states. The democratic party has, through its president, generally prevented these appro priations on the ground of their unconstitutionality and dan gerous consequences in the shape of favouritism and corrupt contracts. The question of free territory, if not settled by this con gress will doubtless be by the next. I have never attributed to it any greet importance, and have so expressed myself in this series of letters. We cannot forget the agitation which attended the famous Missouri Compromise. The territory of Missouri sought admission into the union. A proposition was made to prohibit the introduction of slavery in the New State, and the subject not only became the leading topic in PRUSSIA.—The journals, which declared that the Earl of Westmoreland, the British minister at Berlin, approved of the proceedings of ministers with regard to the transferring of the National Assembly to Bran denburg, now assert that the English cabinet, after consulting the legal authorities of their country, have come to the conclusion that the King is in the right, and consequently that the above Assembly is in the wrong. The last rumour respecting the intentions of the court party is, that, if a sufficient number of members do not meet in Brandenburg, tne King will Laivoke the United Diet, the one that voted the law of election', and call upon it to decide between him and the majority of the National Assembly.

This is the desire of all neon who feel themselves betrayed ; but, alas! what Woe hat ours can so peacefully accomplish it ? The people at Eurspe are convulsively agitated by hopes and fears which have co certain termination. Even England has found her innerid sway disputed by the meanest of her suldecte under the feel ing of a wrong and the agony of despair. Everywhere ths elements of change are at work, and a general sir senate be the tendency of these strifes of races and of kings, pa w is it that these impending difficulties cannot be avowal peacefully and without bloodshed What must we think of man, what of cur race, when we contemplate these bloody contests, apparently the only, * thod of deciding questions which forbearznce, justice, ha. manity, and religion might easily decide? The heart flatfil at the spectacle of this inceassat war between dares, all claiming to be inspired by the highest principle, and tenet agreeing as to what it is. It is not so with us, at least on those great wakes when the nation determines who shell he its mien. We, ton, have sought a great and a decided change in our govt. meat : but while Europe is on the brink of Woodshedsal ruin, while the universal mind of man is asking " who will show us any good ?" we decide in a single day, and in the spirit of patriots and philantheopiste, the greatest gentian of our country. Nor is it the decision alone which is ion makable, but rather the hearty and honourable acquiescent, on the part of those who lose by the change. Now, however much your writers may sneer at our rant ridicule our manners, or decry our inatitutions, let them show us any other nation on tho Get of this globe which can, at will, change its supreme mica. dye authority peacefully and with , nt bloodshed. Let them point us anywhere else to a struggle for poem among twenty millions of people, without the destradiatof property or the loss of life. We surely have achieved sow thing when we have learned to govern ourselves; and del be well for those who have predicted our downfall Radtke extinction of our example to observe us at this moment, sad tee, in the hearty acquiescence of the minority to the will of the majority, and an the perfect tranquillity which presoak among our electors, whether their hopes are, by any paii bility, likely to be gratified. The truth is, the nation ea never more contented than nt this moment—never mow se- Ale of the advantages of its institutions than at this or pored—and never more united than now in the &termite, don to live and die republicans. Ihe British steamer Foith sailed this dry for Bet muds with a few passengers . It is a pity that the intercourse is not more profitable. I am informed that there is excellent land in the Bermudas which night be had cheap and turned to account. I may have alnadj intimated to you that they could easily supply the, market with the most debglatful products of the Men (tor the climate would permit it) at good roue& plo t if the inhabitants would bestir themselves. Hundreds el Americans would also pass the winter there if there wets erected course lent hotels for their reception.
