Tun legend tells us that Friar BACON wished to 'surround Britain with a wall of brass as a protec tion against intrusive foreigners. As we have managed to da very well without the wall of metal, the chance is that the failure of the arch-conjuror was no such great misfortune after all. A point of much greater importance to us is, that a portion of our countrymen, who have had the power and the will to inflict noel more evil upon us than any equal number of foreigners could, have long enjoyed a protection from the punishment due to their iniquity as secure as that aft , rded by a wall of brass or any other material. The difference is the two cases is, that a hereas the Friar intended to wall foreigners out, the metaphorical wall which we have alluded to has served the purpose of walling honest English men in, and preventing them from overstepping a boundary which separates them from foes of their own blood. In plain English. the state of the law has been such that a fraudulent debtor, whose property would have been justly sacrificed to satisfy the demands of his creditors, if he remained in Eng land, had nothing to do but to evade the service of a writ by creasing the Channel, and his person would ' become inviolable, and his property intact. By stepping out of the kingdom, he inclosed those foes, his creditors, within an impassable barrier. An agent might transmit to him the proceeds of property he possessed here, and he would be allowed the pri vilege of spending, in elegant indolence, once again, a fortuue which, T int for the protection afforded him by the defect of the law, would have been in the hands of rude, unrelenting creditors. Alas for the change that a slight alteration in the law will make in the fatesof various ingenious andble resting swindlers. A fiat has I rene forth whist ban produced wailing and woe in the breasts of human& of bad debtors. On the 24th of October down gess the wall of separation which kept the eager creditor from pouncing upon the man who has been "in his books' for years, and who intended to remain there for ever. lioulogne tears something like partial de population, now that one means of swindling are about to be wrested from the bands of well-drama English scamps. Sadao and Homburg may look ruefully upon bare tabise no longer glittering with the gold tranaherod from the pockets of honest English tradesmen. Tbe loungers at Boulogne, the rattlers of dies at Hades and Homburg, are waiting with dismay the arrival at the fatal day, the 24th inst., which will let loose upon all ei the. who have property in England the horrors of English law. Their imagination wont now be peopling the shone of Albion with prooseswerwen,all red o to spring forward when the time shall weirs. hey may see with a prophetic eye the day coming when an ungrateful country will no longer afford its pro tection to swindling absentees; they watch esearn tally the sacrifice of their property to creditors, who hare so shadow of a title to the same except the jus tice of their claims. The act which is to effect this great change in the circumstances of the truants is entitled "An Act to amend the process, practice, and mode of pleading in the superior courts of common law at Westmin ster," &c. ; and a clause which is to bear so hardly upon the men who "can pay" but "won't pay," runs es follows: " In case any defendant, being a British subject, is residing out of the jurisdiction of the said superior courts, in any place except Scotland or Ireland, it shall be lawful fur the plaintiff to lame • writ of gammons in the form contained in the schedule (A . ), which writ shall bear the indorsement contained in the said form, purporting that such writ is for see- Tit* out of the jurisdiction of the said superior warts, and the time for appearance by the defendant to such writ shall be regulated by the distance from England of the place where the defendant is re siding ; and it shall be lawful for the court or judge on being Wisfied by affidavit that there is a came et action, &c. &c., and that the wed was personal! saved upon the defendant, or that 'Sorts were made to effect personal service upon the defendant, and that it came to his knowledge, and either that the defendant wilfully neglects to appear to nosh writ, or that be is living out of the juristiffibei of the said courts, in order to defeat and blip Ids ereditors, to direct from time to time that the *Mir shell he at liberty to proceed in the action INA isiasser and subject to such conditions as to ale Mater jufte shall seem fit."

For the express purpose of upholding • terrilirial cracy, the !awed this emp ri ii in have 4ni b Lee . cd ie xt land artificial burdens and into, Im posed upon any other inte must ma long have utterly destroyed it. To counteract the inevitable tendency of such laws, it was necessary to enact laws of a protective character. But now that Protec tion is withdrawn, the land resumes its natural cha. meter—that of a raw material, which can be rendered productive only by the application of capital and skill. The value of an acre of land at the present day represents little else than the amount of capital and labour employed in bringing it into cultivation. Farming. in truth, is just se much a business as banking or manufacturing, and must for the future be conducted on the same principles. The legislature, then, having at length placed agriculture on the same footing with other occupa tions, it is manifest that the only burden which the land can bear is its fair contribution to the exigen cies of the state. It should be relieved from the pressure of any law which regards it otherwise than as • staple article of commerce. We have only to look at the conditions which affect the ownership of the soil to see the difficulties and disadvantages under which its cultivation labours, as com pared with other commercial pursuits. Iu the first place, the great bulk of that property, which by a significant distinction the law styles real, is withdrawn from that wholesome facility of transfer which belongs to every descrip tion of persmml estate. One of the soundest thinkers of the day, Mr. J. S. MILL, in his work on " Politi cal Economy," remarks " that to make land as easily , transfetable as stock would be one of the grealset commercial improvements which could be bestowed upon a country." No doubt there era in the way of accomplishing this desirable object, but the chief difficulty lies in the laws which were invented for, and are adhered by the aristocracy, for the purpose of perpetua tion in their families the prestige and power sin exclusively to belong to territorial rights and privi leges. By the law of entail, the inheritance er abseiste dominion over the property is in lot e !Mbest b Isms, perpetually postponed, and tbu possessor is merely • life tenant, elgs limited usufructuary estate. The bed may foe want of drainage and manna buildings sty be required for its profltalk empllism—bed beer is the landlord to provide the assamory outlay spa those objects P He cannot borrow, bibs sea elbesely a precarious security.

Mr. Bower is married. H. was already the father of four children, whea, on the the 2nd of September last, his wife presented him with a filth ; and after the birth of this child she completely lost her reason. ller husband lavished the tenderest are upon her, when on Ividay, towards nine o'clock in the evening, she told him that his last child was tho fruit of guilty relations which she had had with Mr. Morton on the 2nd of Dee. last. The husband, attributing the confession made by his wife, to the deranged state of her mind, refused at first to believe it; but she persisted and gave such circumstantial details, that it sppeared to him impossible to doubt the truth of them. Under the In fluence of excitement, cup to conceive, he left his wife's rooms to go to Mr. Murton's, when be met him in his dining-room, coming as it was his habit to do every day, to inquire after the health of Mrs. Bower. At the sight of the man whom he looked upon as his rival, the rage of Bower knew no bounds. lie reproached Morton with his perfidy, and at the ume instant seining a table knife from the table which was prepared for slipper, he struck at him with it. Morton avoided the blow and fled, hut Bower ran idler him and violently pushing aside his mother, who attempted to stop him, he caught Morton on the landing of the staircase, and stabbed him in the back of the neck with such violence that the blade penetrated thirtenn centimetres into the flesh. The carctid artery was divided, the blow. rushed out, and Morton fell as if struck by lightning. Death was instantane ous. Bower wait back to his apartments, took a passport for abroad which was in his possession, and dis appeared before any one thought of 'eking him. M. Bellinger, the commissary of police of the quarter of the Madeleine, being immediately informed of the event, pro ceeded to the house ia the Rue de Sews, with several polies agents.

AUSTRIA. The Emperor of Austria returned to Vienna on the 29th ult., from Peath. On the Ist instant he was to leave for Agram, where he would abide several days. He was next to visit Pordenonc, where the army of Italy will execute in its turn a series of great manoeuvres. About the 20th instant the Emperor will return to Agram, and thence continue his journey in Croatia and Bela- Tonle. The hereditary Prince of Raisin left Vienna on the morning of the 29th ult., by the Northern Railroad, to return to St. Petersburg. All who have attended the military manoeuvres which have just been brought to a conclusion in Hun gary agree in attributing to them an imposing cha racter, and concede that as a demonstration of mili tary force, intended for all whom it may concern, they have been as successful as the nature of such exhibitions will allow. Three army corps were united at Palota, each composed of picked regi ments. The cavalry numbered 16,000. The foreign officers, who were present in great numbers from all parts of Europe, were welcomed and treated with an ostentation. liberality; and the utter want of stint, which characterised all the arrangements, was a subject of general admiration. It is computed that three millions of the new loan have been expended in this " great exhibition" of Austria. The Austrian government has just rendered the observance of the Sabbath obligatory in all parts of the imperial dominions. On that day all public and private works are to be rnspended, all shops closed with the exception of those where provisions are re tailed, which may be open only for certain hours. SAXONY. Letters from Bresaeli state that the Xing of Saxony has accepted the resignation of his first minister, M. Beloit. THE ZOLLVBREIN. MULLIN, Sm. 30.

Deutsche Post writes from Gmstantinople under date Sept. 18: "The English fleet is expected at Smyrna, to support the negotiations which are now going on between the Porte and the maritime powers relative to the right of their men-of-war to pass the Dardanelles and Bos phorus. The powers demand tree passage through the Straits, that privilege having been granted to tho French war-steamer Charlemagne. The excuse made by the Porte is, that the } rench ambassador was on board the vessel, which hoisted a white flag. To this the reply is, " We, too, will always have a white flag flying whenever we pass the Straits." UNITED STATES. ARRIVAL OF TILE EUROPA. Yesterday afternoon at four o'clock the British and North American linyal Mail steam-ship Europa, Capt. Hy rie, arrived in the Mersey, with the usual mails and passengers from the United States and British North America. The Europa brings thirty seven passengers, and 373,168 dollars in specie on freight. The Europa left New York on the 22nd ult. The Pacific had urrived at New York on the 18th, and the Africa on the 21st ult. The Europa passed the America at 4 p.m. yesterday. The following are the only items of importance in the Now York papers : Mr. Young, the commissioner of the Board of Pub lic Works, has resigned in consequence of the go- vernment having resolved to put on American ves sels passing the Welland Canal the same tolls as are paid by British vessels passing both the Welland and St. Lawrence Canals, and to restore the ditfereutial duties against direct American trade by placing higher duties on goods coming that way than on those coming by the St. Lawrence. Mr. Hindu, in behalf of the remaining members of the cabinet, ex plained to the Assembly that the object of the new policy was to induce .the United States to grant reci procity. Pe cent advices from Buenos Ayres state that Mr. Schenck, the American minister to Brazil, who was sent on a special mission to negotiate for the free navigation of the rivers in the former country, has had an interview with the new dictator, Urquiza, and is likely to succeed in his undertaking. Should a treaty of this kind bo effected, it will be of great commercial advantage to both countries. However, it is impossible to divine what will be done, under the present distracted condition of South American affairs. The citizens of Buenos Ayres are violently opposed to Urquiza, and are said to be merely await ing an opportunity to depose him. According to the lust accounts from Matamoras, the opposition to Cardenas, the usurper of the go vernorship, was increasing. The National Guard had declared in favour of his opponent, ana taken up their position on the American side of the Rio Grande. Three days later advices from Havana were re ceived by the steamship Crescent City. No event of an important character, so far as concerns the inter nal affairs of the island, had come to light since the sailing of the Black Warrior. The Havana news papers, it will ho recollected, aro not allowed to publish articles of news that the government may consider detrimental to its interest, and correspon dents are so closely watched by the police that it is almost impossible for them to transmit information to the American press. Notwithstanding these drawbacks, no have succeeded in collecting some very interesting information. Every true American (says the Herald) cannot but feel satisfied with the prompt and decisive manner in which Lieut. Porter, of the Crescent City, repelled the indignity attempted to be imposed upon his vessel by the placing of Cuban policemen on board, in order to observe what was going on among the passengers, crew, and visitors, under the plea of preventing Parser Smith from going on shore. Had the Cuban government per sisted in this extra3rdinary measure, they would have soon been taught that our naval officers are ' generally considered competent to regulate matters ea board their own vessels, and that they are re sponsible for their conduct to our government aloe& The schooner Louisa Sears, Captain Burdett. which left Port en Prince on the 30th of Mod, arrived at New York on the 21st ult. The yellow Ifeyer was raging at that port, and Captain Vioeor, of the British brig Nile, of Halifax, had died of the disease. It was prevailing among the shipping when Captain Burdett sailed. BALTIMORE, Sept. 21. The mail is through from New Orleans, the papers of which city contain details of the Mexican news heretofore received by telegraph. The advice, from the city of Mexico are to the 21st of August. The Trod d' Union of that date contains an elaborate account of the difficulties which environ the republic of Mexico, all of which tend to the conclusion that &revolution and probable dismemberment is near at hand. The two commissioners who had gone to Sekiya to quiet factions in that city had tanned, having failed to affect anything whatever. The insurgent Rebelled° was completely powerless. He was secreted in the mountains, but had addressed a let ter to the government offering to surrender, provided safety was guaranteed to himself and companions. The legislature had refused to entertain any proposi tion short of an unconditional surrender. An armed Leos bad been sent in pursuit of him. The difficul- No at Guadalajara were still unsettled. Commie rimers had been sent with instructions not to recognise either of the claimants to the governorship, bat to instal M. Ignacio Herrera in that atlas. Nothing had been accomplished at lot Immooolia Great discontent prevailed in Reject% The legis lature of that state had called upon the government to convoke Congress, in order that the finances may he anaased, the Tehuantepec question settled, and =a node for the defence of the frontier. The oMitiaite their depredations, having ravaged Damps theyhave now passed into Zacatecas, where they have committed a thousand atrocities. In Coa huila and Nuevo Leon they attacked villages, mur• dared many of the inhabitants, and carried off women and children. A conducts worth 200,000 dole. left Mexico on the 20th of August for Vera Cruz. It is now said that the postponement of the time for open ing the propos!' for the construction of a toad across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec was owing to the wish of the President, to examine into and explain the points raised by some bidden as to the precise mean ing of certain articles in the contract as published. NEW ORLEANS, 8111.2. 21. Hato from Tampico to the 12th have been received. The city council opposes Carienas, though the legis lature clothes him with additional power. Later dates from the city of Mexico state that a decree fixed the 30th August to receive proposals to open the Tehuantepec road. No day bee been named for opening the proposals. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. Sines the departure of the Arctic for Liverpool there has been a steady uniform demand for government stocks and ether leading sceuritics. The demand for these funds, for the purpose of forming banking capital, is so great, that all offering are readily taken. Railway bonds have been in good request, and large sales have been, mails on European account. There is still • good inquiry, but few offering, unless at antes above the Limits of the agents in this city.

Our correspondent writes ss follows: QUEBEC, szrr. Is After a protracted debate of four days the Clergy Reserve Resolutions of the ministry were brought to a vote at:two o'clock this morning, and carri. d by a large majority, the votes being—Yeas, 52 ; Nays, 22. This debate has been the longest and mo.t acrimonious that has been witnessed in our legislAure since the pass2ge of the celebrated Rebellion fosse, Bill, and much personal ill-feeling has been manitestid. During the debate the ministry several times cap, eesed themselves in favon of secularizing the reserves the inament they obtained the power, and Mr. }Lacks, the leader of the house and the government, stated this moving that he did not believe any settlement or arrangement short of secularisation of these endowments could be made that could prevent agita tion on the subject. A large and exceedingly active portion of the population of Upper Canada will never rest satisfied as long as any state aid is given to religion. The resolutions of Mr. Mucks are very strongly worded, and they demand the unconditional repeal of the imperial act of 1840, in order to give our legislature the right to deal with the clergy reserves, unfettered by imperial control. The house and country are nearly unanimous in demanding this much as a Canadian right, that has been recognised by British legislation, and the deliberately-written opinions of the law officers of the crown of England. The resolutions only ask this right; they are silent as to the disposition of the reserves ; and on this last point I believe there is much difference of opinion. This Clergy Reserve question has been the principal topic time my last letter, and even railroads have been forgotten fur it. There is no doubt that the present high.churcii tort' ministry of England, will make a mistake if they hi sitate to accord the prayer of the address of the Canadian parliament. The population of the two Canvila: now numbers al e two millions, and the people are nut of a temper to give up a Canadian right; and especially a right so well recognised as this particular one has been. COMMERCE OP BELGIUM.—From the comparative tables of the commerce of Belgium lately published, the situation of that country appears favourable, the improve ment visible in several articles during the previous months still continuing, so that there is every reason to expect that the result for 1852 will surpass that of preceding years The augmentation in corn increases considerably ; the dif ference in the Importation in wheat, rye, oats, and barley over the exportation having risen from 60,851,000 kilo grammes in 18.51, to 86,270,000 kilogrammes in the present year. The very considerable quantity used in home con sumption has caused no diminution in prices, but, on the contrary, a constant progression ; a proof of the necessity ' of laying in a considerable stock, and a further evidence in favour of the existing legislation on the corn laws. In importation, all the principal articles of commerce show 32 augmentation, which in several of them is considerable. Compared with 1850 and 1851, the importations of the lint eight months of 1852 have increased as follows cotton, 6,719,000 kilogrammes; coffee 3,601,000 klieg , . rye, 2,201,000 kilogr. ; tobacco, 1,212;000 kelogr. ; leather, 60,000 kilogr. Item sugars alone have experienced a slight decline, being, as compared with the two preceding years 695,000 kilogr. less. In exportation the activity still con tinues, and is developed principally in articles for manu facture' ' • the amelioration, although very satisfactory, is leas gene ral. With regard to flax, the increase, as compared with 1860 and 1861, is as follows flax 1,563,000 kilogr.; threads, 22.5,000 kilogr.; stuffs, 430,000 kilogr. In iron a certain fluctuation has been visible, compared with the two preceding years, showing a diminution of 7,60 tons in cast iron, and of 714,000 kilogr. in nails ; on the other hand, there is an increase of machinery of 179,000 kilogr., and of the valise of 186,000 fr., in firearms. Other articles also show a considerable relative increase— window glass, 2,151,000 kilogr.; raw et,d rolled line, 360,000 kilogr. Relined sugars h ave experienced a dimi nution of 925,000 Mawr., principally in the imports into England ; and cloths have declined 62,000 kilogr. TESTINONIAL TO Mu. IVALLACE.—Mr. Wallace, well known as the late indefatigable member for Greenock, and the zealous advocate of cheap postage, having fallen on evil times in his old age, a committee was formed is Greeuock in 1850, with the laudable purpose of raising a fund to make permanent provision for the honourable gen tleman's declining years. The committee have succeeded in . raising a fund which will secure en annuity at the rate 01 6001. per annum. The ceremony of presenting this hand tome testimonial, in addition to ii bust of Mr. Wallace, exe cuted by Mr. I'. lark, took place on Thursday evening lent in Blackball-orate Church, Greenock, in the presence of the Provost and the principal people of the town and surrounding country. Mr. Wallace. on making his ap pearance, was loudly cheered. A report of the prom of the committee was read by Mr. A. Dennistoun, the iletai'4 being closed by the following paragraph o Your ,m -mittee have the satisfaction of reporting that while they cannot state that their efforts have met with the success which they believed the y . deserved, they have secured to Mr. Wallace a testimonial worthy, at least, of his am eeptance. The subscriptions under the charge of this committee, along with the contributions to the private fund already referred to, would together be represented by in annuity of 5001. per annum ; and as the committee were de sirous of providing some permanent and more public testi menial of the labours of Mr. Wallace, they engaged tic service of that eminent sculptor, Mr. I'. l'ark, of Edin burgh, who has produced the bust now on your table, which the committee propose to present to Mr. IVallace this evening. and they recommend that the town couned of Greenock shoulo be respectfully requested to procure a copy of the bust in marl le, to be placed in the town hall, to commemoration of the great public services of Mr. Wallace , the first representative of Greenock, during the four parlim meets of thirteen sears he represented the burgh." or. J. F. Maefurlan, li'dinburgh, proposed the adoption et the report, which was seconded by Bailie Campbell of Greenock, and unanimously agreed to. Mr. T. Hamlin, the convener of the committee, then presented the testimonial in a gracenal address. Mr. Wallace acknowledged the testi monial in a speech of great length, in which he gave an ito tinseling review of his whole public life ; after which the proceedings terminated. 7 HI to oce Sir runs' Ad vrien, Tuck and Gene, sdeio distri — Lel pole 7 Del from and 3 1)1 Prim in{( lands plain , frelZet famil Coal TIIE late title ben the and on I
