It is miens to see short-sighted polirleisne look at a great diereses for the eagle of oar Stocks fall. ing; such as a dissolution of one of the Chambers at Paris, by a Royal Ordioance ; or a new and den.. serous snack on tire health of his Most Cgmertan ?ffaearry, &c.; while only by s glance of the els ow our own affairs at home, reason enough may be found ! for what has occurred in the money market. After the bigh-coloured picture which lAnfd CAsTLlatAan painted of the flourishing condition of trade and corn. amerce; to end, that in the fourth year of peace there is a necessity to fund a great amount of Faeheoer Bills, and to borrow from 15 to 20 millings (some say more), whet inset Capitalists and every other class of People think ? Tu•duy the Funds look tether upward again. The Israelites. who have chiefly been sellers or beers of iste, Wine out of the market to-day (Saturday) is one of a few trifling cause , of bolding op prices. What the CiIANCELLOR of the Exeunt:ea said in the House has bed anme effect also. But the breath of Ministers will •ever again effect the weeders it hes done. It is now the general opinion of the People that they have been trifled wit►, and played upon too much in that way. We refer ..or Renders, with great satisfaction, to the motion of Laid llou.son, in the llowo of Peers, on Thoadsy night, for the production of the Acts in the Colonial Legislator's in the West Indies, in furtherance of the design of Parliament effectually to accomplish the Abolition of the Slave Trade in the British Colonies, sod else to give eto►al end religious instruction to the street population, end generally to emend their condition. The pleasure we received, arose out of that triumph of humanity, which has been gained by the opposers of the Slave Trade. —Even Ministers are compelled to eche the semi timents of the friends of the Abolition. This is well ; for, hollow as they are in their thoeghts, they do good in this way withoot meaning it. Pawn- DINCI makes use of the 'kited as well as the good to effect Its great purposes. While we rejoice in this general aspect of good relative to the Wool Aboli lion of the Slave Trade in the British Colonies, we! must not permit ourselves to copy the flattering pie. I tore which some give of the real wishes of the Stare. owner, to amend the condition ..f the human beast of burthen, unhappily submitted to his cooties, ; religious or moral instruction for their stares th►y have an obsolete and natural abhorrence of. They cannot wish to teach their poor captive that he is the victim of their rapacity, the human sacrifice offered op on the altar of their avarice and cruelly. They !would have him to believe, not that he has an im mortal soul, but that he is as the beast that perishes, anti is made, in common with the brute creation, for the sole convenience and use of his master. The Mlistommaiss, who base sheared to poor religion' and moral instruction into the hearts ■nd minds of the West India slaves, have been the object of jealousy, of hatred, and of persecution among the Slave-owners. We do not mean to designate a whole race of melt, such as the Slave.nisners, as indivi dually base or cruel; but we say, their education, their manner of living in the midst of their plants. , lions and their slaves, does sink them to legislate for those unfortunate beings. As well might you set a wolf to legislate for sheep, ors fos for chickens.— ' We confess, we are sorry to ►ear that cant of pan. dour among our well-designing Statesmen, when speaking of the Colonial Legislatures, wLitb pre. :t veils in histories of those Assetul.lies ire t rucr d ; and : et it be points4lMM° psi UNA the rizh:s of Murk mess sere over risitti Oo ze ern tar under. stood by 'Arm. ieurverties of false politeuesr, of unrest lit.erslity, 11 , 1 into IL* •ni.e of our Perlis. watery Dsboter. *hive is hurtful 'o the ruse of truth, sod of Course to she cause of Reform of every kind.
