.0 0 ~. ~. MP STATE OF TILE COUNTRY. The Whistling letter was published in the Chester I:I/ordains of the tlOth last, anoilymotitilr, and has 1...-11 attire transmitted In the Editor of THE BOrrasa iraf:SS by the professed writer, with his signature :a-- TO THE EDITOR. Slit—The debate on the motion of Mr. ll'estern, reaper,- teethe 'Bill for the resumption of cash pymenre, commonly ruled Peers Ism, is interestieg only as it stereo the half. measures to which many of the country gentlemen, who are termed the moderate party in the House of Commute, may be sometimes induced to lead themselves. The re• •iimption of cash psymeote is, In itself, a great national benefit; and hoer las it been rendered otherwise? 'Surely, by keening op the tax?' to their paper denomiumioss. The taxes mire be reduced to their 'etiolated value in cash, which et the lowest ostentation is full fite-and twenty per 'cent. bttow their nominal 'mown; It is not by t•king of use or moonier Me, and by partial alleviations of the pres sure itrai.•ny rood r•n be effected, bat by • general deltic. limn afire and firmly per real. on the Nieves of •II debts coli.rtretorl elnetror the p per currency, including the na tional debt. This must he the tins step. A similar redue,. Non in salaries must ily follows ayd, indeed, etch • redneion will not then be felt as a grl ranee. Measures of this sort oneht to have aceompanierl the Resumption Pill; her it required both Tonnage and rectitude to pro pose them, awl for this reason the return to cash pay melts became the cease of 'lmre,. All this would be tenon set In r'glils by a Parliament slut really reprevet cal the imererts of the country ; but what are we to expert from "tear who, g Ily speaking, are the repeesentatives of debt sad Government inflame*? I ant lint sorry that the motion of Mr. Western was loot; and, indeed, the de cided manner in which it was more than simple rejected, is pea% ells the best thing that, next to the Wit itself, ever proceeded from this Administration. The question is ma tted ; the kepes qj Aitrh priest ors at an end ; the country item lemen now must make up their minds to the that which they ought to have doge keg ago; there can be no loom any 'modality° ; they must come to the point—the only poi•t where they may lind safety : t h ey must denoted a general reduction of iat ea that portion of the mt. lions, debt contracted in paper nessey, sad on all bonds sad other dehts incurred during the depreciation of bank paper. Mestere have left them no other resource but this. But, at the same time, I du nut think they will obtain this demand of these Xlinisters or of this Parlia ment. They must look to Steens; and to a great thee,e in the government of she cowry. What ran they possibly have to fear is • change? A reformed Par. linnets; with a polestar Admininration, t deprive them of 'Their estate* half so rapidly as the present system ; • the contrary, they can have no longer sny hope but in a refermed Parliament. This present Administretioo, ailed by its influence is • corrupt Peshawar, carried the paper money system to its moat extravagant extent, sod at the conduction of the war they found that their paper money, by creating enormous prices at horn-, ruined oar trade and our commercial importance abroad. The country was sinkiag in the scale of kiiiplume—the foreign Meerut . ' of our Government was diet g. To remedy this they diminished their paper ninety. but they did this without diminishing the dept which hail her n raised in that same paper money. By this plan tlu.y now draw from The country, even with their preceded repeal of a few millions of Tattoo, more money (estimating money in the value of labour and produce.) than they did during the war, by at least five•and•tweary or thirty per cent. And who Soils this labour and produce—who but the tenant of the land holder? And yet the country gestlesnen have bees look* throughout this Session for a remedy to the very amerce of the evil. The present Ministers consult aid them rffeetwelly without pulling to hazard the very influence on which their awn power I, bunt. They have acknowledeed this repeat edly. They have detailed the most paltry placemen—their double Postmasters Gs neral, and their supernumerary Lords of the Admiralty, openly, upon the pretence that their morkine cannot work at all without such welt oiled springs and levers. Even in repealing • tax, they must contrive to preserve the petty machinery of ingeeace employed in its collection. The landed Wriest Is every way made their da r e. If the country gent).men continue to snppoit such •u Administration, or to resist the refuter now es absolutely necessary iu the parliamentary representation of the interests of the country, they will have to oedema sufferings tenfold termer than their present sufferings, and will repent of their •biliied confidence when repentance will avail them nothing. 'I he qnertion of obtaining high pri , es by ms ens of an ex. tended paper currency is settled. The next step must err. islets: he that of diatialslsed expense. Now, in tine, how far is the question of national credit mad the diminnltun of the ortional debt to be comprehended? You. Sir, have stropped many hints relative to the necessity of considering this baring of the subject is time, end most have perceived that alt , during the present Session, public credit mid reduction of the interest of the did, have been men tinned in the Honourable Wane, there has been more de. I:esey than derision among the Hun. Menthe's. The mat. ter most sooner or later come fumed in the shape of a di r,•et debate can this subj. rt. Ott Friday last it came Infnell Fest prematurely into discussion. Towards the those of the Kent meeting, Mr. Cobbett intredneed • sort of rider to the l'etitiou for Reform, praying that tee reformed f Palliamerst might be iesirocted to reduce the interest is the national Mist. This proposition was carried by • very great majority. On the 14th torten', Mr. Hoeywood, the Whig Megabit. fur Kent, in presenting this Petition to the House of Commons, dig. 'Torrid this clans., in the name of the leading Whig Gee. th men who had called the county meting and presided der. ii• g the deliberations. HI. apology was mil by the sarcasms or his Tory Culkagae , Sir E. Kosichbull, and gradually the principal Members on kot h sides of the House were drawn, re. I :ctant ly enough, into the discussion. I cannot but say that I rejoice in the circumstance, for it elicited some alliterations which I have lung lookt.: for sills anxiety. Lord J. Russell, fur whose earnest labours in the llefuni of Parliament I entertain tile most si tepee', appeared earnest to clear the question et Parliamentary improvement from all suspicion of its ten deucy to to reprehensib'e • measure as that implied in the surreptitious clause of the petition. His Lurdabip, ni vertheless, silmitted that a mumest of necresity might arrive is which he might be impelled to give his commit to smile rissole of composition with the public creditor. The Marquis of Loodoeslerry shuddered at the word content t bin Lordship admitted the possibility of a calls, when, with a poputd me oppressed with the weight of the public berAeos, sad a thresteeteg ebony without, it might be absolyhtly Recvssery to cousider the claims of the peblie ei editor as secondary to the immediate safety of the State; but st the same time he deprecated any suggestiou of etch • it on points, so in this iustauce I cannot but think that hie view of the subject was any thing but that of a Statesman, or eve• of an honest mac. What I would say on this im portant subject enemata, in fit, words. to this: that it is more honourable for this insulveut and distressed natiou to come to • composition at once with its creditors, than to go ou in • train of mean expedients until the day cones at last when it may (and nuked suit) be in • situation to be abso lutely compelled to say to the public creditor, we can pay you mot:tug. His Lordship cries out—" Oh, for Heaves.% sake ! do not speak of the possible coosequences of our d. btu : let us put on a fair outside; Impoverish our farmers, ruin our merchants sad manufacturer; and it will be time, when sot soother peony cgs he obtained in any quarter, to tutu round and say to the public creditor, we are unable to pay you any longer." This is rot call. d (sir dealing in private life; •..d the debtor, who, oadre such circumstances, should come at last to claim the besefit of the losolveut Act, amok( he justly sent by the Vice-Chineellor to improve his roolaks by twelve months' Mearceration in the Fleet prison. While the nation has something to offer, let it *Bee that something. We csunut but think, nutwillistand. tug the strain of high toned declamation is which the subject was handled, that this is busiest as well as po litic. Section, let the fundliolder emisider the question fairly. While be is getting more—mach mere—than the fate interest or what he lent, he is so impoverishing the country, that he is hasteoing that Imperative crisis which The Noble Marquis is so fearful of aaticipatieg, even in idea. Whatever the fendholder thinks, with sore, of !~~ the &manila:l)T Arose be eneJemns, to lessen the interest of the public debt, let hem Ihiub , •t the same lime , how, by it.. Ming continued te be paid in fa:l, the moment is ne relsr•trd whets it may nut be able to his paid at all. The ohnoxious clause in the Kentish Petition was, however, justly thiclaimeil by the moderate Whigs. It has nothing., nothing to du with their views of the subject. Long be fore they effect a reform its Parliament by their gentle and temporising plaas, the moment of uatsonal ruin and national hank. owl, will have arri►ed. This I do nut eon. tempter, nor dims it behove tis to contemplate it. I Irish to prevent it, and am persuaded that • prompt and • complete examination of our Anaemial circumstances would pr. vent it ; hut from wham shosild we expect sitch an exatd•rrtion ext-pt from a reformsed Parliament? The tuorersation respecting this Petition may be considered as • awl of ►kirmiah, preceding • more general battle. It ha■ shears • little of she nature of the forces that will he brought forward uts each side. The friends of public credit hare, I apprehend, expended the best part of their ammo. •nion already; they will fire blank cartridges, and expect to blind their opponents with smoke. On the other side, there are facts which, though they will be brought up slowly and reluctantly, will hear upon the feeble fortresses of their ad ins like ►eavy cannon upon a tottering wall. Mr. Brougham has already asked, tokethe► the whole system since Ike yea► 1797 Aar test been composed of a sinks of artifice and dwelt ? Surely those who lent money to Government antisiqraiatly to that crisis hive no right to consider themselves injured by the coasequesces of any other crisis. Besid•n, says Mr. H. G. Bennett, are ant the fithilholders, for the most part, receiving thi►ly shilling. fur the 'twenty shillings they lent! They are receiving more. Many of them did not lend fourteen shillings in the pouted, and had various advantages in bonuses, and the whole play of he stocks besides. This, to be sure, west, for the mom part, i• 10 the pockets of the great Jew Iwokers •nd loan negotiators; but dues the gain of the principal exonerate she petty speculators from the consequences of the transaction? It was a speculation—not upon the corn. try, but upon the interest and inewence of Ministers; aed when that interest and influence fail, the claims of the fund holder, upon the public credit of the country will be talked of in a reformed Pailiament (for what thee will withstand reform!) without much delicacy.

[From toe A - earthy Contshontutor j extract of • letter from a gentleman in Mexico, to his brother in Freaklto County, Keutucky, dated, City of 111exieo, isomer, 8, 1828 : " On the testh of November we arrived at the great city of Mexico, distant frees Vera Gus about three hundred miles. The main road leading from one of these cities to the other is the best I ever travelled, although the country through which It p is the Most mountainous I ever beheld.— Mexico is surrounded by mountains, some of which are co. erred with snow all the year; they afford a grand and •plen. did prospect from the city, where gardens are covered with Howe. s and other vegetable productions at all seasons of the year. I have ate ripe peaches in the mousing at the foot of a mountaisi, sad is the evening, after having pissed the mountain, have sees orchards is bloom. " This country produces all the fruits of the West Indies. as well as those of North America; the apple comes to Crest perfection; the watermelon may be had every day i• the year; potatoes, and in fact eeee thing that mss can wish for, may be produced here, though the inhabitants live wretchedly; the city is filled with poor; you are attacked at every corner of the street by beggars, a large Number of whom are able to work, but have bees raised is iodolesee, and ems do nothing except ride or peek a mule, which is their only mode of transporiatioo. . _ " I have been infarmed that at the time Cortez coo. qurred the city, it contained two hundred thousand inks. biotin's, and a the commencement of the revolution, owe hundred mid seventy thuusand ; at this time the population is celculetril al one hundred and twenty thousand, Ms thirds of which are Indians, the most ignorant, aupersti. lions, and indolent people I have ever seets—iethey have bets priest ridden and It intsuldru until they are neither As for sot. diets, sailors, or citizens. I have frequently visited the old pa. lace of Montezuma, and have been in the roollllwhich ►e Riled with gold to purchase a peace of the Spaniards. I have like wise seen the large stone that Montezuma and his people worshipped—lbis stone is mode to resemble the san, and is about eight feet in diameter, of solid stone, on which is d the Azure of all the animals Inhabiting ibis country— it is now pot in front of the Cathedral as an ancient nese ment.

The swarming of bees still continues, for thong% the first "warm departs in May, a papillose hive will oersil out three or four colonies in the curly part of the summ-r. The old queen bee haying deposited her eggs in the ru)al et 11, from which other queen bees are to proceed, leads the first swarm. This casinos fact, anspected by Rummer, but first con6i mid by the indefatigable Huber, Is wisely provided for, as Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere, so a bee. hive brooks not a double reign of sisal querns; one of the two must perish, and the consequences of the obi queen being left behind inevitably would be the murder of her younger and weaker rivals, and the eveutual de ' 'traction of the whole upi cite; fur upon these queens the formailan if the after swarms entirely deptmal.— Of the young queen. left in this hive, no two are allowed their liberty et the same time; the others, though ha cited and impatient of restraint, are detained piiausiets in their royal cells, by the wet kisig bees, mho resist all attempts of the captives to eacspe ; and if, as is sometimes the case, one more active thau the rest effects a hole is her cell, the guards instantly solder it up with wax, opening only at intervals a space large enough fur her trunk to pass through, which they feed with honey, slid then Ouse op the •perture again. The list act of the single liberated queen is to assail all the other royal cells— bent instinctively on the desteactioe of her rivals; and an amuslag secouut is given by.

By imposing a load of taxes, such as the Roman empire, extending over half the known world,never knew (though it was then declining under what one of its native historians emphatically calls " the hailstorm of taxation"), on their ill-fated country, they have rendered it inspeactie.ible fur the middle classes, of land proprietors, more especially, to live with comfort; and, but fur such reduction in the prices of the necessaries of life as is utterly ruinous to those who produce them, impossible for the labouring poor to live at ali. Even at the present low prices, weal privations and much misery are suffered in various parts of England, wh•lst in an other portion of the empire, starvation, disease, and death are visiting the eulogiuna of its Government in characters more portentously awful than those of the band-writing on the will in the palace of Bel shazzar. The people of England are beginning to open their eyes to the injurious effects of such mul titudes being driven• from their homes, ao4 coin. polled to seek refuge in cheaper couutries.
