Ws are awry to utter the opinion. that states are leas intlrenced in their asknowledgment of debts and in the punctual diecharg• a/their annual interest, by soy abstract principle of honesty, than by the perfect knowledge, that in these days credit is the only treasure, and that the facility of drawing on th et treasure in an hour of difficulty or danger, is worth far more than any saving could effect, or any imme diate gain that diehonesty could secure. An ancient politician would have been much astounded had it been foretold to him that the time should come when war was altogether an affair of money, and that a state of things should exist in which though all states kept up their mutual rivalry of each other, and maintained in support of that rivalry enormous armies; still it was open for any one state to borrow from the wealth and wealthy men of ano ther state, meet to it, and moat in danger from it, the graii opposedaterial and sinews of war. Abmird as this might at first seem, there would still appear same redeeming points in the system, since it would tend to make governments dependent upon a general monied public, caring very little in deed for patriotism or national interests, but still bound to respect the prudent and the wise, and to close the gates of the world's treasures against the in temperate or the dishonest. Whether, however, this monied public has been, or is even as yet, a very discerning one, may be doubted. It is at present somewhat tory and conservative in its leanings; and this is out up to it as • reproach. Some four-and-twenty years ago, however, it was decidedly liberal, most ready to open its purse strings to any . young nation that would undertake • struggle for its liberties. Despotic governments were then so stu•itily exclusive and averse even to traoo, that the spirit of the commercial community was eager at least to open them. Times have changed however. Countries that have gone through revolu- BOW, and even won constitutions, have not proved in all instances either liberal or honest. Republics have repudiate' debts as well as parliaments and trines. The young liberal parties of tai emandipated nation are found to be peculiarly . jealous and prohibitive, in order to codd:o up their domestic manufactures. And altogether commercial spirit and se gaci ty is far less inclined to put fai di in and make @salaam for liberalism and liberal efforts, than was the case • quarter of a century ago. As a borrower, the Czar of Aram is more highly esteemed than would be any Corteof the Peninsula, or the Estates of any semi despotic monarchy. In this the monied public is about as Wren in its predilection for one extreme, an it was in that for the other. And when we consider the motive which makes one government so scrupulous in pay cthe interest of its debts, and another so areless, we might not be eager to trust for any length of time even the punctual debtor. Thom states, in tact, pay most attention to meet the interest et their debt, who feel that they may want to borrow. There is nothing, for instance, that Russia would not do, at least the Russian cabi or teethe? than fail to be punctual in the payment of a semestre. Austria, struggling as she is in the sea of bankruptcy, will still make gigantic eff3rts, we may be assured, to preserve her credit. And yet we know this punctuality has but the motive of making greater and greater drasghts, utterly beyond the resources of the empire. Of all itates, wham the one that was most Ms rested in a rigid attention to its debts, and to mestiag their interest, was Ore( ce. That little country was formed in hopes of future aggrandisement. And the sole policy of its monarch and its statesmen should have been to have laid and prepared every resource for the time when it might mike a start. Instead of this the lubberly idiots that have filled the throne and ministerial seats of that country seem to bare not one idea beyond the butterfly policy of enjoying the hour, and spending what it produces, thus betraying their dynasty, themselves, their noble country, and a nobler cause. Who, in any case, would lend them a farthing or a man? Spain enjoys an unhappy eminence as a repudiat ing state. And her English creditors are apt to point at her with unmitigated scum and resentment. And it certainly does stem hard that those who staked their money in backing the Spanish struggle for liberty should be met by the triumphant liberal, themselves, when in possession of power and of a constitutional throne, with deaf ears and harsh terms. But the unfortunate fact is, that Spain is not a country that wants credit, or that is in the habit of receiving sad appreciating it. Apart from the great current of European politics, with frontiers naturally and inde libly marked, she has little to fear in any ordinary state of things. The jealousies of other powers would alone suffice to defend Spain. Nay, the jealousies and conflicting interests of other powers are Spain's best support in maintaining her hold over her remaining colonies. Spain, foe these reasons, as well as from the satis factory state of her finances, has no need of borrowing. When the royal marriages were in preparaiion, millions were raised with ease, and dissipated to Lome PHILIPPE as the dowry of the Duchess of MONTTENSIEZ, or given by handfuls to all who laboured in that nefarious plot. And nothing could be more easy than for an able finance minister to raise the revenues of Spain far above her ordinary expenses. If, therefore, there are ample revenue to pay, there is not the same preening mem city to do so which renders other countries so punc tually homed. All we can say is, that what Spain stipulates to pay henceforth she is well able to do'. The willingness is another affair. But it seems that Spain, although not wanting money impolitical ends, is anxious to raise it for application to material purposes. Her =jointers would apply it to railroads, to great public works, to the ports, and to the re-establishment of the marine. This expendi ture, though not imperative, is desirable, and, in part, reproductive. But the ba rs idea of raising money necessitates the settlement of debts already incurred and neglected. With this view, the Spanish govern ment has made propose= which the bondholders have met in a spirit of great concession and fairness. It should be borne in mind, however, that the final sanc tion of any compromise must come from the new Cortes, of which the complexion is doubtful, whilst the views and motives likely to weigh with it are yet is embryo. IT is certainly carious, as well as agnificant, to ob serve how readily every question of any public im portance in America now resolves itself, more or less, into a mere farm of the chronic, dispute between the two great parties which are arrayed 'gained each other on the embarrassing subject of slavery. No matter what aspect a topic may at first ussome, or in what quarter it may first present itself, it soon yields to the necessity imposed upon it by what the Preach would call the situation, and gravitates inevitably to. wards that which is, for the present, the matte of all political action in the Union. It is thus that that which appears to be but an ordinary question of htendrein domestic policy sakes at once to put both the great camps in motion. The andantes of a new state into the union, when merely carved out of the existing national domain, is made a gnat party question, as in the ease with thapropaea annexation of any new terri tory to the coafederacy. Questions of war sad peace, when with a state situated like Mexico, share the same fate, and even discussions about the tariff' amuse more or less the hue end savour of the great dispute. This shows not only the extreme sanative nem of the public mind in connexion with it, but also the difficulties in the way of its adjustment from the _ Wet Itith cout ies 'he tcr . lb* divests& tr the extent to which it thus identifies so teeny elfin great Littered. of the coast Tour, sines he Minimise WI hi gamily ism the oecialian of w toile Macs.

In the eirenenstuess atteadiog her admission, Texas differs widely from her slater omernonwsalths. fib was the first abd the only state which, previously . to Mat admission, occupied a position at once sovereign asd independent. All the others, with the exception ef the old thirteen, which united together betas they were either sovereign or indepoodeat, have bees sec oterively carved out of territory already in tn. poems. aloe and under the control of the Union. Texas was already • state before she entered into the Usios as one; her amnion to the confederacy having been the result more of • treaty than of an act °loon/rem She has not forgotten this, and although eke lays no formal claim to any privileges not shared by her as sociates, she (IN quently acts as if the circumstances of her alliance with them gave her • title to eccentricity. Her present pretensions, if not the boldest, are cer tainly the most dangerous, that she bee yet pre ferred; and taxless withdrawn, or greatly modifi threaten to involveithe Union in the most dreaded of all calamities—the arraying of the general govern ment in an attitude of farce against a refractory mem- bee of the confederacy. - The history of the dispute now pending between Texas and New Mexico is simply this : Tees., after her separation from the Mexican republic, claimed the Rio Grande as her western boundary. To this claim she adhered after her annexation to the United States. Mexico continued to resist the claim, and, as most people remember, her doing so was the main canes of the war between the two re publics, which was began in 1846, and termirated so d.sastrously for Mexico in 1848. Mexico claimed both banks of the Rio Grande as far eastward as the Nuecn, as being part and parcel of the department of Tematilipar. Texas claimed both banks of the Nneces as far westward as the Rio Grande, not only as part and parcel of the former department of Texas, but by virtue of a treaty entered into by SANTA ANNA d ratified by the Mexican congress, after the deci sive battle of San Jacinto. The debateable ground was the strip of territory between the two riven, the dispute respecting which, after the annexation of Texas, rested between Mexico and the Unite! States. General TAILOR, in obedience to instructions from Washirgtoo, occupied the territory, veare!Jing his army across it as far as the Rio Grande, on the left beak of which he took up his position directly opposite the town of Matamoros. The events which followed an still fresh in the public recol- 'action. The present is a boundary . question, and the game I:ne, that of the Rio Grande, is the line in dispute. Proximately, the differenoe is between T er - we and New Mexico, bat the real parties to the controversy are Texas and the general government. By its con duct in 1848, the latter committed itself to the Rio Grande as the western boundary of Texas, having made the alleged validity of the Texan claim to the river its main ground for their attacking Mexico. It doe. not, therefore, now lie with the general govern ment to dispute this claim, nor does it dispute it. The question now between the parties is, not whether Texas is entitled to claim the Rio Grande Ili her boundary, bat how far up the river she is justified in claiming it u such. Her own pretensions carry her to the remotest sources of the stream, the Texans claiming the whole of the left bank of the river as theirs. Had the territory through which the upper stream flows still remained Mexican, the probabilities are that Texas would have enlisted in her behalf the sympathies of the Ameri can people, when the course before the general go vernment would have been plain and easy, viz., to bully Mexico out of the territory claimed. But al though Mexico still possesses Use watern bank of the river for a considerable distance upwards from its mouth, she has patted with both banks of its upper waters. By the session of New Mexico, the whole of the Upper Rio Grande was transferred to the United States ; and the dispute now being between a state and a territory of the United States, public opinion in the union is divided on the subject, and the course of the general government beset with diftleulties. Had Texas from the first spe cifically claimed the whole of the Ri i Grande for her boundary the question would have been simplified. She affirms that she did so; but there is a difference between a mere vague claim and one positively, 'poly, and constantly asserted. The admission of bar claim would tanager to her the whole of the terri tory. the centre of which is the important trading port of Santa Fe. It is notorious that not only after the independent*, but even after the annexation of Texas, Santa Ft was treated as • Mexican town, in which was resident an American consul, whose busi ness it was to watch over American interests. A mere vague pretension on the part of Texas can be of no avail against this fart The town and territory became American, and not Texan, by the subse quent transfer of New Mexico. The people of New Mexico, both Spanish and Anglo-American, are indisposed to admit the pretensions of their ambitious and arrogant neighbours. They claim for the terri tory of New Mexico, the boundaries possessed by the old department of New Mexico. Texas sent commis sioners to Santa Fe to support her claim, and to endeavour to get up a sympathy in the disputed ter ritory in her behalf. Bat they were coldly received by the people, and peremptorily informed by the federal officials, both civil and military, on the spot, that their clai m would be regarded and treated as inadmissible until congress had decided upon it. Texas, therefore, threatens to raise volunteers and take military occupation of the district The general I government meets this threat by notifying its trite's tion to resist any such attempt. until the matter Is belly set at rest by the only competent authority. Such was the policy of the late administration, sad ample evidence has just been furnished ns that it is Mr. FILLMOItee intention to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor. Such is this ugly dispute, which would have been selleiently serious without being blended, as it is, with other questions of greater difficulty and mac comprehensive range. A. similar dispute gave rise, many years ago, to no little bloater between the states of Ohio and Michigan. On that occasion, the rest el the Union looked en unmoved, there being no prim leiple of general policy at issue, and the matter was left almost to adjust it.elf. But there is far gnjst danger in the present dispute, backed as the pedals it are by the two great parties into whisk the net:: is divided on the subject of eleeery. Nude% as a territory, has repudiated amity. Gni will soon be admit ted into the Union us this state. Texas is a slave state, and as sok bet ems is taken up by the slaving party, , wits use anxious to curtail the limits of the free territory, by ezteedieg those of the slave state. The anti-slavery party, for obvious reasons, discountenance the preten -411011 of Texas; and thus it is that a dispute, which might otherwise be OM amicably settled by the feenisdiate parties to it, as would that be tween GOILEAN and the Bishop of EXETER, V bit to their own resources, is fomented said rendered more dangerous by . more important parties in the backgrund, whose =tenets are in volved in it.

Another eilleahy would arise from the jealousy with which the concession of s quasi-regal sepulture weed be surveyed by the republicans. So that it seems that the well-meant intention is not likely to be carried into execution. Since his return, the President has lived very re tired with his intimates at the Elyse*, among whom M. Vernon, the editor of the Consinetionsel, seems to enjoy a prominent plus of favour. It is thought in this circle a feat of no small addrees to have passed through so many cities, and made so many speeches to mayors, prefects, and other functionaries without mos uttering the name of the republic. The enor mous expenditure on the journey renders it highly probable that once more recourse most be had to the Assembly for an extraordinary grant to defray the travelling expenses of representatioo. The Bona partist papers omit no opportunity of alluding to the economical shifts to which the Prince is redacted from the narrowness of his income. Thus, ho is obliged to send M.de Fleury, his aide-de-camp, to buy horns at Cam, because his purse is not long enough for Tattersall's. The President's voyage had, among other ends, the object of neutralising the importance of representa tives in their departments, and the preparation of the councils-geteral for expressing a wish for the revision of the constitution. The prefects have all positive orders from the government to provoke this mani festation in their councils; and each day the results are received by telegraph, and anxiously registered. The President is immediately informed, from the Ministry of the Interior, by a special messenger, of every piece of news which reaches the Home-office from the departments on this important question. Of 47 members of the council-general of the Dor dogne, only 33 were present. M. Dufraisse, one of the members, is confined in the prison of St. Pelagic, for seditious publication,. IK. Chavoix is in prison at Perigueux, for his duel with M. Dupont. After the formation of the board, the president read a letter from M. Chavoix, in which he explained the cause of his absence, az.d complained of the illegally of his imprisonment. Finally, he solicited the coon ' ml-general to express their disapprobation of his ' arrest M. Leonardon opposed the proposition, as it would be highly improper in the council to blame the TM authorities for the execution of their duty. ' The motion was withdrawn. ' A cabinet council was held yesterday at the Elpee ' under the presidency of 1•31311 Napoleon. The pre ' sence of several members of the Committee of Perma nence at Wiesbaden was the subject of much die ' cussion. A great number of arrests were effected by the po lice on the boulevards on the night of the President's return. Louis Napoleon, in his reply to the Archbishop of Rheims, announced that the Pope had granted three cardinals' hats to France, in compliance with an ap plication from the government, and that the first was destined for the archbishop himself. M. Berryer returned to Paris from his journey to Wiesbaden lad night. He presented M. de Salvandy to de Duke of Bordeaux. and reminded the prince of the conduct of M. de Salvandy on the occasion of the legitimist pilgrimage to Belgrave-equare. M. Beanie, printer of a pamphlet by Martini, called Foi et Arenir, was yesterday condemned to 100 fr. fine, for having deposited only 72 pages of the pamphlet, instead of 104, at the Ministry of the lute nor. This inc'mplete deposit was a violation of the law,• but M. Beanie represented that it arose from error. The public prosecutor admitted that there might be error, bat said he was nevertheleu bound to punish the negligence. The fine inflicted is the minimum allowed by law. Several American and English vessels in the port of Havre hoisted their colours half-mast high on hear ing of the death of the ex-King Louis Philippe. The electric telegraph between Paris and Orleans is terminated, and in a few days communications can be sent between the two places. Workmen are now employed in fixing the wires on the Bordeaux and central lines. The demagogues of Belles put forth on the 27th alt. a political programme to the atoniehment of their tellow-citizens. They drew it up in the night, in the public street, at a meeting which was rather name ready attended, aid in the most extraordinary silence. This programme of red policy was nothing more nor less —a scaffold. It is concise, but clear. The guillotine ! that is the summary of their system. This scaffold was erected during the night by meets of planks which served during the fair for the erection of the booths. The platform was about 30 feet in length, with a post on seek aide, on one of which, for want of a real head, a straw one was placed. The peasuble inhabitants of the place were rather alarmed in the morning in seeing this apparatus of ill-omen, and the authorities .were not lees astonished.

The President of the Ministry, M. Bannibach, as well as MM. Hayman and Abee, were &so present in their official character. All the deputies, without excep tion, presented themselves, and took the oath to maintain the constitution. Upon the proposition of the President, a committee was appointed to propose the address in answer to the royal speech, and on the motion of M. Oetktr, the immediate election of a permanent committee of the assembly was resolved on, and the election fixed for to-morrow. The fol lowing is the ministerial address : Gestlmes,—By the gracious commission of his Royal Rightism the Elector, I am authorised to open this new land tag, to which, after the dissolution of the former anarchy of states you have been appointed by election. In the name of his Royal Highness the Elector I am to express his hearty goodwill, and hie desire that your labours here may be crowned with seeress. The financial condition of the anus- t r y, which slue 1848 has been one of embalmment and coefusion, wea that which, at the date of the dissolution of the late chamber, and is now, after two months are flown, and atter his highness the elector has provided for the most pressing monetary neceleities of the state from his own means, the object which presses most for consideration, in seder that the expenditure of the state may be met by the proper insane of the treasury. Toe government will. therefore, without any delay, submit to you for discussion a law authorising the temporary collection of the taxes M the 30th of September of the present year ' and after the deelsarge of this business will prorogue the chamber in order to be able in the middle of the coming month to ap pear before the assembly with a new budget, whose com pieties is at present delayed by the inqairies now making with a view to economise expenditure in the departments of war and justice, and alo with proposals for covenng the exist. lag deficit and meeting impending demands. The govern ment is profoundly conscious of the difficulties it has to en counter in the present °audition of the state, external and domestic ; it knows the caution which on thecae hand and deciion and energy on the other will be demanded, and is determined as far as in it lin, to combat the dangers which threaten the greater and smaller Fatherland. So much as your constitutional and loyal co-operation is required, the government believes it may expect all your assistance as the gravity of the moment must be obvious and impossible to be mistaken by any one of you. In every ease the government will, looking fur the misters°, of the Almighty, so discharge its ogles as remsmbertag its reeponsibtlity to God and the country. On your side it may with coofidence ask that ready ste-operas which is the condition of a common pros perous people in the path of the eonstitution and of regular government. la the name of the Elector, I declare the opening of the Lsadtq.

Population by the last census (1848), 100,184. The commeste, of this country is chiefly carried on with Great Britain In British bottoms. During the years 1848-9 the arrivals at Punta Arenas amounted to 70 ships, with • total of 7,188 tons of merchandise. The development of oommerce is at present paralysed by the long and expensive voyage round Cape Horn, as many of the productions of Costa Rica, fitting for the markets of Europe, cannot bear the heavy charges on exportation by that route. The exper tatioes In 1848 amounted to:150,000 quintals of coffee, 10,000 hides • eonaiderable quantity of seotner-o'pearl, wasps' illa and sire -wood, and • small lot of pearls from Golfo Dulce and Soya. The state of Nicaragua se wholly supplied with tobacco from Costa Rica ; tortoise-shell is also exported in oossidtrable quantities. The *usual value of importations amounts to 1,094,000 of dollen, including 200,000 dollars from Nicaragua. Some gold mines are now being worked, and there are many others of copper exceedingly rich, of coal, nickel, zinc, iron, and lead mixed with silver, but they are neglected for want of capital. Traffic is at present carried on by the port of Punta Arenas, on the Pacific Ocean, to which port a good carriage -road has been completed from the capital, a distance of 22 mile.. Obstacles which would have deterred a less patriotic adminis. Intim from the undertaking ware surmounted by President IV (Intro in the coustroction of this road—for and 112090- talus atteining an elevation of 4,500 feet, we tat throustb ; deep ravines and impetuous torrent. were over me, and five excellent stone bridges thrown across the route, at an expense of 150,000 dole. But the eonstruction of a carriage.road from the capital to the river liarapiqui—a tri'miary of the San Juan, running into the Atlantis—is the great desideratum of the govern. meat end the people of Costa Bin, for by this road the whole of the produce of the country would be sap - rted, in. stead of by the tedious and expenses way of the Cape. The distance from the capital to the point of embaskvtion on the 13 traptqui is but 66 miles along the simmeities of the moun tains and valleys. From this point of emharkation to the port of San Joan (Grey-town) the distance is 45 miles. This diatanoe in pulled is boats ia 12 hours; loaded craft tat two days to 11411111, ascending the river from Grey-town. It is said that this is the principal motive of General Castro's visit to Europe. LA PLATA. In reference to the new treaty, ad referendum, passed by M. Lepredoar, the Messages de Mode Video, of the 24th June, oontains the followirg : The governor of the Argentine confederation has con cluded a treaty of peace, ad referendum, with the plmi potentiary of the French republic • and this project ig to be sent to France u soon as it shall lave received the rivi of S B. Don Manuel Oribe, lawful president of the oriental republic of Uruguay, and ally of the Argentine govern ment. . . It does not belong to us to appreciate this di , riournent of Admiral Lepredoer's second mission ; of this we shall treat at an opportune moment, but we may say to-day, that this malt is out what WAS to be expected by the government and I the assembly of France. The severity of the terms used by Dermal de la Mitts at the tribune when he qualified the project of a treaty of last year, were soon forgouen; the overwhelming appreciation of it by M. Dens, in hie luminous report, was not much taken into account; awl the vote of the legislative assembly was con sidered is the light of an incident that was to be regretted, hopes being entertained that European complications would ultimately reader French representants less particular (esigeants). as we have reason to believe, we are rightly informed this new project ilitrtrs as much from tre modifier.-' tioas made by the French government to the Lepredour treaty—modifications which, by the way, were rejected by Rome as the first project of the Lepredonr Convenuon—dit fend from the ultimatum presented by M. Deffaudis. Tuns instead of getting on, we are retrograding, that Is, the more ambassadors we send to Rotas the less is he disposed to yield to our just demands. The rumour of the approaching disembarkation of onr troops at Montevideo gams consistence. The approaching arrival of the steamer Archimedes is a:so spoken of, as well as the probability of some visits from M. Lepredour in the hosts of Cerrito. BRAZILS.

They have smashed my windows in—have had me down, and they would have killed me if I bad not had the poker," Toe wounded man died on Wednesday morning.
