The New York packet ship, Patrick Henry, Capt. J. C. Delano, arrived here this afternoon after a voyage of 20 days, bringing papers to the 9th ultimo, inclusive. The President made a very important communication to the Hcuse, on the 7th, viz., a message pointing attention to the official correspondance which has taken place between the United States and the British Government on the Ore gon question since the opening of Congress. We regret to find, though the result is only what we anti cipated, that the Message of the PRESIDENT is most unsatis factory, and scarcely leaves any hopes of a peaceable settle ment of the Oregon question. According to this document, and the correspondence accompanying it, the American Go vernment positively refuses to refer the question to arbitra tion, and declares that England has no rights whatever in re spect of Oregon. This is going to the full extreme of his pre vious declaration, as made in his first Message; and is the more determined and offensive, as coming in the shape of a reply to amicable and honourable overtures from our Minister at Washington. Of such importance is the business now regarded, that a special vessel was dispatched from New York for England, supposed to be chartered by Mr. Pakenham, for the purpose of conveying dispatches to England, and, as he no doubt an ticipated, with a view to obtain further instructions from his Government by the Hibernia steamer, which sails from Liverpool on Wednesday. The departure of this special vessel was thus publicly announced by the American Post • office department ; " LyrrEas roe EUROPE.—A vessel of extraordinary speed, with cheice•salling masters and picked crew, will leave New York for Liverpool, on Monday, 9th instant, at twelve o'clock, and returning will leave Liverpool on or about the 26th or 27th instant. Letter bags will remain open until Monday morning at ten o'clock." (From the New York Courier and Enquirer.) THE OREGON QUESTION.—In the letter of our Washington corre spondent will be found a brief statement of correspondence that has recently taken place between our Government and that of Great Britain, both at Washington and at London, in reference to the Oregon question. This correspondence is of very high importance, and diminishes very much the grounds upon which we have been hoping for a peaceful solution of pending difficulties. It will be seen by our correspondent's letter that our Government has decliued to accept an offer of. arbitration, made in two different forms, by Great Britain, and that too upon the very offensive ground that to accept it would be to admit that Great Britain had rights in Oregon—and that the British Govern ment has informed our Minister at London, that her military prepa rations, though not commenced with special reference to this coun try. the condition of the Oregon question proves their expediency and that they will be continued, in reference to that question. The whole matter, not only with reference to pacific settlement but with regard to the honourable and defensible positions of this country, seems now to be in the worst possible position. (Corespondence of the Courier and Enquirer.) WASHINGTON. THURSDAY NIGHT, FEB. s.—The whole of Oregon or none-men in the House were successffil in getting the resolution adopted to close the debate on the Oregon question on Monday next at three P.M., when the voting will commence on the various propositions submitted. It is impossible to predict what the result wit be, but it is probable that a resolution throwing the responsibi hty of giving the notice upon the President will be successful. It is worthy of notice that Mr. C. J. Ingersoll, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, was forced to admit, to-day, on the floor of the House, that negotiations had been resumed on this ques tion. This being the fact it is difficult to see with what propriety Congress can act in the matter while they are kept in ignorance of the true state of the question. In the Senate, Mr. Speight presented the credentials of his colleague, Mr. Chalmers, elected to fill the unexpired term of Mr. Walker. Mr. Barrow presented a memorial praying Congress to provide for the adjustment ofclaims to Mexican indemnity, as awarded. Mr. Bagby, by leave, introduced a Bill to authorise the President to increase the naval establishment of the United States by adding thereto the naval establishment of the republic of Texas—provided that the proportion of personal to material in the Texas navy shall not exceed the same in the United States navy. Mr. Yulee submitted a resolution that the Secretary of War report what progress is making in the public construction at Key West. The special order, being the consideration of the War Steamer Bill, was then taken up. Mr. Westcott made an exceedingly sensible expose of the relative maritime force of the various commercial nations as compared with that of the United States—of the necessity of an increase of our navy, (especially if we were to possess Oregon and California) —of the defenceless condition orthe Atlantic and coast, Gulf, &c. He was not satisfied precisely with the form of the Bill before the Senate, and hoped it would be amended ; but ho should vote for it with the distinct qualification that it was a peace measure, as con tradistinguished from a measure required by any anticipation of war. If he really apprehended war he should vote for quadruple the in crease proposed by this Bill. (From the New York Herald.) THE OREGON NEGOTIATIONS. REFUSAL OF THE PRESIDENT TO ARBITRATE. THE REJECTION OF TWO FRESH PROPOSITIONS FROM THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT. WASHINGTON, FEB. 7, 1846.—The truth is out at last. We have finally received the long-looked for Message from the President, with the recent correspondence between our Government and Great Britain. We give you the substance to-day, for Monday's paper—you will have them in full for Tuesday's paper. I. A note from the President, inclosirig the correspondence. 11. A note from Mr. Buchman, to the same:purport. 111. Mr. Buchanan to Mr. 3l'Lane, our Minister to Er gland, dated Washington, December 13, 1845, requesting Mr. 3PLane to inquire into the object of the warlike preparations being made by Great Britain. IT. Mr. M`Lane to Mr. Buchanan, dated London, January 3d, 1846, stating that an interview had been had between himself and Lord Aberdeen.—Lord Aberdeen said that England had the most friendly feelings towards the United States, but they were obliged to be in readiness for any emergency. The warlike preparations had no particular reference to a war with America. They were com menced before any difficulty with the United States was apprehended; and their extent was exaggerated. Mr. 31`Lane, however, thinks that these preparations are made in view of a difficulty with the United States, and that these preparations are made with the view of doing the greatest injury in the shortest time, if a war should come. V. Mr. Pakenham to Mr. Buchanan, dated Dec. 27th, 1845, offer ing arbitrations, and giving reasons for this offer, which is made in the spirit of kindness. The value of the disputed point is small, when compared with the maintenance of peace. VI. Mr. Buchanan to Mr. Pakenham, Jan. 3, 1846, declining the offer, and giving reasons for this refusal. Arbitration would seem to concede that Great Britain had rights In this territory, which was the question in dispute. In this connexion, he referred to his former arguments on this subject. The President claims the whole. VII. Mr. Pakenham to Mr. Buchanan, January 6, 1846, stating that he had sent Mr. Buchanan's reply to his Government for its consideration. VIII. Mr. Pakenham to Mr. Buchanan, January 16, 1846, in reply to Mr. Buchauan's note of January 3d, stating that England had rights, but she wished to have this controversy settled. If objections were made to referring this to a sovereign, he proposed that it might be referred to a mixed commission of citizens and subjects, with an umpire, or to a board of jurists and distinguished men. This pro position he submitted again, to show the desire of his Government to settle this long pending controversy. IX. Mr. Bubbanan to Mr. Pakenham, February 4th, 1846, giving his reasons for again declining the offer. This is a long dispatch, and points out the difficulty of selecting a fit board of arbitration. But there is one reason above all others for declining arbitration which is, that the President does not feel himself at liberty to submit to arbitration the disposal of the territorial rights of this country.— This closes the correspondence. The general opinion among members of Congress seems to be that war is more probable than it was before this correspondence. WAsniNoToN, FEB. 7, 1846.—The whole truth is out. The Ore gon diplomatic correspondence, called for by Mr. Collamer, was brought in by Mr. J. Knox Walker to-day. The impossibility of getting it transcribed for the mails (Mr. Ritchie having carried it off), compels us to the briefest outline. The first letter from the President, enclosing the correspondence upon the Oregon question since his late annual message. MR. BUCHANAN TO MR. M`Lane. Waskington, Dec. 13, 1845. Asks information of our Minister in reference to the warlike pre parations going on in England, while at peace with all Europe. Desires him to inquire of Lord Aberdeen. The President infers that these preparations look to a rupture with the United States on the Oregon question. Of vast importance to have the information as early as possible, as to the true character of the military preparations in Great Britain. The President also desires the individual opinion of Mr. M`Lane, in reference to these warlike demonstrations. MR. ZeLANE TO MR. BUCHANAN. London, Jan. 3, 1846. Mr. M`Lane acknowledges the receipt of Mr. Buchanan's letter of the 29th ult. Mr. M'Lane acknowledges his fear of obtaining categorical answers ; and that he had resolved without hesitancy, that the best mode was frankly to call upon Lord Aberdeen, and ask of him, in obedience to instructions upon the subject. He did so : stated what the President had inferred from these preparations. Lord Aberdeen frankly responded that the military preparations of England, while they did not look directly to a probable rupture with the United States upon the Oregon question, were regarded as being useful, In the event of such a contingency. They had no direct re ference to such a rupture. Lord Aberdeen also stated that these pre, parations were commenced before the present crisis, which had grown out of the Oregon territory, between Great Britain and the United States, and that, therefore, they could not have arisen from the aspect of this controversy in any way. These preparations had also been exaggerated. The most formidable are the defences erecting aleng the more exposed points of the island, and these could not be construed as looking to a rupture with the United States. The other preparations were the erection of steam-vessels to fill the places of the old worn-out sailing ships of the navy ; a policy which Lord Aberdeen doubted. The general policy of England was, that it was wise in peace to prepare for the exigencies' of war. Lord Aberdeen disclaimed any distinct application of these warlike pre parations to a probable rupture with the United States, upon the opin e io o n ol t d o b n e o , t th b a e t with d M en •L ee ime in ex L p o res rd ses Oregon uesfuttlioesnt. l‘ o l n r fl . hj Aberdeen, s onT it assumed that the present warlike attitude of England did not look incidentally to the prospect of a rupture with this c country upon the Oregon question. The steam-vessels being erected by the British Government were especially adapted to such a rupture. If such a war arises, England will be as fully prepared as if her ener gies hat been directed especiall3 to this end. The Government of England would be found in complete armour and her policy would doubtless be to inflict the greatest possible injury and the heaviest possible blow at the commencement of the struggle, with the view of shortening the duration of the war. MR. PAKENIIAM TO MR. BUCHANAN. Washington, 27th Dec. 1845. Proposes the arbitration of some friendly power or State, and under instructions ftom his Goverment. Speaks of the advantages of the early settlement of the dispute In the plan proposed ; and of the small value of the strip of territory really in dispute between the parties. RAIL WAY COMMITTEES. The following suggestions have been drawn up by the Chairmen, for the consideration of the Select Committees on Railway Groups. 1. The attention of every Committee should be directed to the following resolution of the House :—" That all Select Committees on Railway Groups or Bills be empowered to refer (if they shall so think flt) to the Chaii - man of Ways and Means, together with the Members ordered to prepare and bring in each such Bill, any un opposed railway Bill submitted for their consideration, and that such Bills be severally dealt with by the said Chairman, and those Members respectively acting with him, as other unopposed Bills are to be dealt with." 2. If parties agree as to the order of precedence in which other Bills included in thc group shall be taken, the Committee will adopt their agreement. 3. If parties do not agree, the Committee will decide the order of precedence, without hearing counsel. 4. In this case such Bills in each group as are not opposed by com peting lines, will be first taken into consideration, in the order in which they have been read a second time. 5. With respect to competing lines, the Committee will subdivide if necessary the Bills in each group, so as to distribute into separate classes the Bills for such lines as compete inter se. 6. With regard to such separate classes, and the Bills in such classes, the Committee must exercise its discretion, according to the circumstances of the case, in determining the order of prece dence. 7. In the cases of Bills for lines of railway competing inter se, the following course, adopted last session, is proposed to be con tinued :- Suppose a case of four competing Bills: No. 1. Counsel opens the case, and then produces evidence. Landowners and other opponents, and Nos. 2,3, and 4 then cross. exs mine. No. 1. Re-examines. Landowners and other opponents, and then Nos. 2,3, and 4 offer consecutively positive evidence in opposition to No. 1, on the merits of his case. No. 1. Cross•examines. Landowners and other opponents, and then Nos: 2,3, and 4 re examine. Same process with 2,3, and 4, in rotation, and 4,3, 2, and 1 reply. Where the opposition of several distinct opposing parties turns on the same points, it will be desirable to restrict, as far as possible, the limits within which the right of successive examinations and cross examinations shall be exercised. 8. In all cases the counsel ht opening the case is to be festrieted to a statement of facts. The counsel for opponents may either ad dress the Committee previously to offering evidence, or afterwards, but not both. 9. The promoters of each Bill shall be required, two clear days before the day appointed for the first sitting of the Committee, to furnish to the clerk of the Committee, for the use of each member thereof, a particular printed statement of the chief points, succinctly stated, on which they rest their case. 10. The opponents of a Bill shall be required to furnish at the same time a like statement of the chief points on which they rest their opposition. 11. The standing orders as to traffic having been rescinded, no detailed evidence as to traffic shall in ordinary cases be received either in support of or in opposition to a Bill, bat the promoters of a Bill shall be required to append to the foregoing statement a printed list of the chief cities or towns intended to be accommodated, with their respective distances from the proposed line, together with the amount of the population of such cities or towns, taken from the re tunic of the last general census. It will of course be competent to the Committee, if they shall see sufficient cause, to require fUrther evidence as to traffic. 12. With a view to place some reasonable limit on the amount of engineering evidence, parties shall be required to furnish the Com mittee with the names of the engineering witnesses whom they pro pose to call ; and it is recommended that Committees should place some limit on the number of engineering 'witnesses to be examined with reference to the same portion of any proposed line. 13. In the case of amalgamated Bills, the promoters of any such Bill shall be required to furnish the Committee with a printed state ment of all the pecuniary claims and liabilities to which any com pany included in the pro?osed amalgamation is subject by any pre vious Act of Parliament.

It is very seldom that a vaudeville is an illustration of a great fact or a great theory, yet the vaudeville L'Homme et le Mode, which was produced at this theatre last evening, is the illustration of the greatest theory founded upon great facts which has been announced by modern philosopers. Guizot might have been the author of it; and if he had been, he would have entitled it La doctrine de la Societe, and doubtless, while acting the part of Victor, ➢i. Felix is a doctrinaire. The vaudeville is in fact a perfect illustration of la doctrine.. Victor (Mr. Felix), a young man of talents and accomplishments, of a warm heart, of gene rous nature, but gauche modeste, and dressed in the fashion of forty years back, comes to Paris. His talents, his accom plishments, his courage go for nothing, he is not a la mode, and the virtuous, talented, but unfashionable man is put down by the fribbles who are made by their tailors. It is evident that tailors make or mar the success of man in life. Virtue accepts this great part, instead of fighting against it; he becomes l'homme a la nwde as far as externals are concerned, preserving at the game time his virtue, his courage, his accomplishments. Instead of fighting against the part of frivolity, he accepts it, and, accepting it and throwing himself into the midst of it, he is enabled to call into being another part—the part of manliness, which more than neutralises the part of frivolty, and carries him victoriously through all his troubles. Thus does Victor afford practical proof of the truth of La doctrine. Whether sueh was the idea of the author in writing the piece, it is not for us to say, but, most assuredly, if we wanted a practical proof of the doctrine as shadowed forth by M. Royer Collard, and elaborated by M. Guizot, we should say that it would be found in L'Homme et la Mode. M. Felix was ad mirable—nothing could exceed his gaucherie in the first act, save the perfection of modest assurance which he exhibited in the last. It is an admirable comedy, admirably acted. The house was well and fashionably attended. PRINTERS' PENSION SOCIETY.—The annual general meeting and 24th election of this society, for the relief of aged and infirm printers and their widows, was held yesterday, at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, for the purpose of receiving a report of the committee for the past year, as to the state of the society's affairs, appointing the officers for the year ensuing, electing five pensioners on the general funds and the candidate sixth on the poll will be en ' titled to the Whlttingham pension. J. Gordill, Esq. (in the absence of Richard Taylor, Esq.), In the chair. Mr. J. S. Hodson, the secre tary, read the report, which commenced by congratulating the sub scribers on the highly satifaetory prospects of the society, and that its funds had increased, and still continued to increase. For some years previously there had been a falling off in the annual subscriptions, but this year the committee were happy to state that the receipts were greater than they had been for four years past, exceeding those of the last year by 321. With their increase of receipts, the amount of pen sions had also increased, reaching the sum 0f5031. 4s. The report then alluded to the advantages derived by the society In investing its funds with the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt, the interest on which now amounted to 1481. ISis sd. pet aantlm, the total capital of the society now being 4,1701. 10s. The report next alluded to the anniversary dinner, at which R. Disraeli, Esq., M.P., presided, which drew together the largest company ever met to celebrate that event, and at the close of the meeting it realised the unprecedented sum of 4001. The committee also Wished to acknow ledge,ical, Punch, who with the most heartfelt gratitude the magnificent gift from the e excursion to Brigh ton, Vauxhall-gardens f6te, and other sources of reve nue were casu phraodp r e l i c u t i o c r l s i e o d f I t ts h a f t popular th a e n e d x t w el e lt i 1 0 -k f n ti o o r T p ia ert o d ally noticed, and various sums of small profit acknowledged. The re port also alluded, in terms of the deepest regret, to the removal by death of their late chairman of the committee, Mr. Smith, Who Was a warm filend to the institution. The report was unanimously adopted, and ordered to be printed. A deputation front the Cotri tottyrnhe b g e e r t y t- . mittee appointed to conduct the amateur performance at the Strand Theatre, which lied been promoted by gentlemen connected With the newspapers, stated that the performances had realided a profit of The result of the poll was then 521.

THE ROBERTSES ON THEIR TRAVELS.—It has been frequently remarked that persons who in England are content to move i n an o b scure c ircle quietly and respectably, when abroad dash at once into all the extravagances and follies of continental life, and assume a position to which neither their birth, fortune, nor education entitles them, rarely failing to excite the contempt of fore'gners, and seldom escaping without drawing disgrace upon themselves. This has afforded Mrs. Troilope an admirable su'dect for the display of that talent in portraying character which she possesses in so eminent a degree, and in the new novel which has just appeared In three volumes, under the ti.le of " The Robertscs on their Travels," her lively pen has done due justice to the ambitious family of a re tired London banker, tired G. f the respectability of Portland-place, and eager to thrust themselves forward as prominently as possible in the mixed society of German spas and It lian cities. There is an inexhaustible fund of amusement in the adventures of the several members of the Ifoberts' family in their search after fashion, which there can be' little doubt will speedily snake this work a great favourite with the public. THE LATE INCENDIARY FIRES NEAR BUCKINGHAM. —The sum of 2501. is offered for the conviction of the parties who set fire to the premises at Preston Bissett. The County Fire-office offer 1001. for the conviction of the person who set fire to Mr. James Gough's premises, and 501. is offered by the inhabitants of Preston Bissett, and 1001. by her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State, to be paid to any person who shall give such information and evidence as shall lead to the discovery and conviction of the incendiary or incen diaries who fired either of the separate properties in the occupation of Mr. Row, Mr. J. Gough, Mr. A. Irons, and ' Mr. John Markham, situate at Preston Bissett. A promise is also h eld out that the Secretary of State will recommend her Majesty's pardon to any ac complice, net being the person who actually set fire to the pro portico, who will give the d&ired evidence. One of the properties fired belonged to the Rev. John Risley, and two of them belonged to the Duke of Buckingham. A member of the metropolitan police - force has been staying at Preston since the fires,"with a view of tracing out the guilty parties ; but at present no clue has been ob tained. Of late a number of game-law cases have originated at Preston Bissott, at the instance of the Duke of Buckingham's game keepers, and it is Palma that they have led to the above &'o. DUTCH MAIL.

Mr. Pakenham had assumed that the title of England was valid to at least a portion of the disputed territory, whereas, the President had assumed the title of the United States to he clear and unquestionable to the whole of Oregon. This was a sufficient reason to decline the overture. Besides, arbitration, so far from leading to happier consequences, would but create new difficulties. The President expresses the hope that the controversy may yet be adjusted, without disturbance of the peace between the two countries. MR. PAKZNHAM TO MR. BUCHANAN. Washington, Jan. 6, 1846.

Mr. Palconham renews to Mr. Buchanan the offer of arbitration. On the question of the title, Great Britain had as explicitly as serted her rights to the Oregon territory to the United States. Does not propose now to review the title of either party. Proposes to submit the title itself to arbitration, and if a friendly sovereign or state is objectionable to the United States, then to a mixed com mission of eminent jurists, civilians, &c. If the title of neither party shall prove clear and satisfactory, then the arbitration may divide the territory. Invites the Secretary of State to a considera tion of this proposition. MR.

THE HAGUE, FEB. 26.—Accounts from Batavia, dated the 31st of December, 1845, brought by the overland mail, inform us that some disorders have taken place among the people of Bantam, which had made it neces sary to send a small number of troops. The cause of this movement is not yet precisely known, but what is certainly known is, that sixty persons attacked, during the night, the habitation of an European proprietor, and assaulted him, his wife, and five children, in the most savage manner. Three of the children were killed. It is said, that two European keepers were likewise assassi nated. The cause of this murder is supposed to be per sonal vengeance. When the mail left, tranquillity was restored. Another account says Mr. Kamphuis, his wife, and five of his children, as well ac two European keepers, or inspectors, had lost their lives—that hardly anything was stolen—that the Resident of Bantam repaired to the spot, but was obliged to return, there being a band of three or four hundred persons—that a few troops were then sent, which dispersed them, killing 22 of them. The police arrested a hundred natives suspected of being concerned in this affair. According to the declarations of thnpersons arrested, it would seem that the cause of this crime was, that Mr. Kampuis had considerably raised the rent of the rice fields. At Bandon, in the regency of Preangor, an assistant resident had been assassinated by a. Chinese; he was alighting From his carriage ; he received a violent blow on the head, which caused his death. This assassination bad no other cause than personal hatred. We learn, also, that the public coffers at Riouw had been plundered by pirates of 30,000 florins. There had been great inundations in the Presidency of Baglen I)jokjokarta, which had done much damage to the bridge and the roads. Many houses and numbers of cattle were swept away, but none of the inhabitants had perished. _ _ _ THE HAGUE, FEB. 24.—The central section of the Second Chamber has concluded its report on the project of law relative to the grant of indemnity to the persons who had suffered by the military inundations. It seems that in the section 15 members w( re in favour and 21 against the grant, alleging that the sufferers had no right to an indemnity. THE HAGUE, FEB. 26.—The central section of the Second Chamber sat yesterday and today, to examine , the several projects of law. It is expected that the Chamber will meet on Saturday to receive the report of the central section on some projects of law, the debates on which will take place at the beginning f next week. It is said that the Chamber will be adjourned till after Easter. THE HAGUE, FEB. 22.—1 t appears from the preliminary report of the Central Section of the Second Chamber respect ing the project of law which places the Russian flag on the same footing as those of the most favoured nations, that the States General have received with satisfaction this proposal, which gives them an opportunity to concur with the Go vernment on a measure which assimilates the Russian flag to the flag of the most favoured nations, which must have the most advantageous consequence for the commerce and navigation of the Netherlands, and which is a new step towards a most liberal system of commerce. Several obser vations were, however, made in the Central Section on this project of law. The Section of the Second Chamber will meet to-morrow, to continue the examination of the pro posal for revising the standing orders of the Chamber. AMSTERDAM, FEB. 23.—The Staats Couran: of to-day contains the additional articles to the regulations agreed to on the 10th of October, 1836 ; the 12th of September, 1837 ; the 20th of September, 1839 ; the Bth of July, 1841; and the sth of November, 1842, between the Netherlands and France, relative to the post-offiee. The chief subject of these ad ditional articles is, that letters originating in the kingdom of the Netherlands, and destined for the several countries of the Swiss Confederation, which are forwarded through France, may be sent to the post-office of France, pre-paid or not, to the place of destination ; and, on the other hand, letters from the Swiss countries, destined for the Netherlands, may be forwarded through France, pre. paid or not, to the place of destination in the Netherlands. HANOVER, FEB. 19.—The following are said to be the par ticulars of the negotiations between the Treasury and Baron Rothschild, 'respecting a loan of seven millions of dollars for the railways. Baron Rothschild, in union with four bankers of this city, was ready to contract for a loan to the amount of seven millions dollars at 3i per cent. interest, but at the rate of 90 per cent., and even this 90 per cent. was not to be paid in full, but to be reduced by commission, so that the Treasury would receive 87 or 88 per cent. The Treasury, as we hear, have rejected these proposals, and broken off the negotiations. BERLIN, FEB. 19.—( From the Universal Prussian Gazette.) —The latest accounts from Posen, which aro to the 17th, in the evening, say that the province was perfectly tranquil, and that most of the arrests of persons out of Posen, ordered on the 14th, had been effected. With respect to the move ments of troops, the General commanding in Posen, acting by virtue of authority previously given him, has given orders to some of the troops in garrison at Frankfort-on-the-Oder, and the neighbourhood, and in the environs of Breslau, to march into the Grand Duchy, and by the certainty of powerful sup port to remove the apprehension which began to manifest itself in some places among the German population. ASHFORD MECHANICS' INSTITUTION. A lecture on the "Art and Science of Political Economy" was delivered on Thursday evening last at the Mechanics' Institution in this town, to a c: owded meeting of its mem bers, by the Rev. John Dufton, Rector of Warehorne. The Rev. Lecturer observed that the science to which he was about to call their attention was usually spoken of as one of the most modern. This was only in part true, as its novelty consisted in the arrangement of well known facts. The advance in chemistry, mathematics, and natural philosphy in modern times was held sufficient to constitute them new s c i ences , an d y e t th e grea t es t inno vations were regarded as improvements. He ccnsidered the name of Political Economy a disadvantage, and unfor tunately chosen and calculated to lead to incorrect notions. Adam Smith has designated his work a treatise on the "Wealth of Nations." Others have described Political Economy as the "Science of Exchanges ;" and again it has been proposed by others to designate it the "Philosophy of Commerce." It is plain, however, said the Rev. Gentleman, that this most i mpor t ant branch of science has for its oiject to ascertain the philosophical principles of juris prudence, and, in the circumstances of man's external con dition, to point out that the most effectual plan for the advancement of human improvement and happiness is to conform to the principles and that order of things recom mended by nature. Of th e t rut h of these remarks en lightened men seem now to be generally convinced • for the most celebrated wo r k s w hi c h have been - produced in different countries of Europe, by Adam Smith, Huskisson, Ricardo, Turgot, Quesnai, Beccatia, an d others, have aimed at the improvement of society by this means. After speak ing with much force on the importance and utility of the science, and pointing out " wealth" as having no more necessary connexion with avarice or sordid selfishness than the inquiries of the physiologist and the chemist respecting the organs of digestion and absorption of nutriment with gluttonous excess, the lecturer remarked that nations the most ignorant and poor, and tribes the most savage, are as prone to avarice as any others. After noticing and refuting the opinions of those who contend that a poor country is more favourably situated for virtue than a rich one, he went on to show that even if wealth were admitted to he an evil, it was still necessary to study its nature and its production, the causes which promote or impede its in crease, and the laws which regulate its distribution, just as bodily diseases are made the subject of laborious and minute inquiry by physicians, with a view to their cure. The Rev. Gentleman then made some striking and valuable re marks on the prevailing fallacies connected with common sense and experience, in order to prove that men in general give their testimony in favour of the former in those cases only - where they themselves have nothing else to trust to— resorting to systematic study—to rules of art and science in those of which they respectively possess the knowledge. The sailor, fur instance, would laugh at the idea of navi gating a ship by common sense; se would the architect in building, and the physician in the treament of diseases. As regards experience, the lecturer adduced some beautiful and interesting illustrations to prove that time alone does not necessarily confer experience, nor carrying on business one way necessarily confer experience in another, and that the idea of enlightening incorrect reasoners by giving them more knowledge is like the tale of the school-boy making a flat roof and laying on more straw to prevent the rain soaking through. His more intelligent companion saw a new arrangement was wanting. Straw is also wanting, but no quantity will supply the want of knowing how to build. After dwelling on anatomy, and physiology, as fur nishing a most important part of natural theology, he ad verted to the practical success which is invariably found in proportion to the scientific knowledge men pOssess, and added, the more these sciences were studied, the more light is thrown on the wisdom of contrivance which the structure of organized bodies displays—inferences which he thought were obvious, although, perhaps, not really more clear and valid than in any other. In the beautiful words of the poet, " All nature is but art unknown to thee, All chance direction which thou canst not sec." If, then, order and regularity prevail in the material world (he continued), equally do they predominate throughout moral and intellectual existences. An attentive inquirer would perceive a no less admirable apparatus for the pro gress of society. The Rev. Gentleman proceeded to notice the division of labour, and the co-operation which is required before a single pin can be made and brought to market, and the many thousands of workmen necessary to provide the coarse, rough coat of the day-labourer in a civilized community. Who then could venture to estimate the number of people who combine their labour before a large city is supplied with provisions and the useful objects they enjoy? After quoting one of the most profound thinkers and powerful reasoners of the present age, to show . with what ease this wonderful and important end is accomplished by private interest, operating on the numerous class of wholesale, andmore especially retail traders—a mechanism which no wisdom of man can direct so well, he said " no wisdom of man," foi in this instance, as in most others. there are the sanle works of contrivance and — design, with a view to a beneficial 4nd, which we .admire in other branches of Natural Theology; nay, it tended more to .ex cite our admiration to contemplate rational agenta,,po-ope rating, not by gravitation and impulse like inert matter, but by motiyes addressed to the will—presenting to the reflective mind a branch of Natural Theology more striking than any other. " The heavens do indeed declare the glory of God," and the human body is " fearfully and wonder fully made ;" but if the phenomena connected with man as a rational agent and a member of society were as well understood as Anatomy and Physiology, it would exhibit even more striking marks of Divine wisdom than we have any knowledge of. After a few striking remarks en what is called pure and uncultivated nature, in remote and sequestered districts—on those who speak of the manly virtue and practical wisdom of our rude and simple fore fathers, and regard vice as something imported from thronged cities, smoky workshops, and bustling manufac tories, the lecturer went on to prove, at some length, that as tendencies to deceit, sensuality, and all other vices exist in all mankind in every state of society—a fact which men may learn from observation, conscientiousness, and Holy Writ—so the counteracting and restraining checks of pru dence, morality, and religion have the less or more sway, speaking generally, according as a community is more or less advanced from a state of rude and barbarian ignorance. He concluded that, as a general rule, advancement in "national wealth," which men are adapted for and im pelled to promote by the Most High, must be favourable to moral improvement, and that they have by this means been designed to advance in : virtue, and true wisdom, and happiness. " But," continued the Rev. Gentleman, "I am very far from thinking we have realised the advantages which increasing national wealth holds out as regards moral, in tellectual, and religious advancement. It is certainly true our condition in this island is much improved, as compared with what it was when our Anglo. Saxon ancestors were first settled in it; yet I hope and trust those who follow us two or three centuries hence will look upon us as semi barbarians—that commerce between different countries, rendering them mutually dependent, will lessen their disposi tion to go to war—and that slavery and war (which, if Christianity were heartily and generally embraced,. would be entirely unknown) will, by the spread of civilization and just views of political economy, be banished from the earth." During the delivery of his lecture, of which the above is a neagre outline, the Rev. Gentleman was frequently . greeted with warm applause, and he resumed his seat amid much ,heering.—Kentish Gazette. DUTCH SPIRITS,—On a memorial, some time since, to the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, by certain parties, importerts of geneva from Holland, praying relief in regard to the construction put by the officers of the revenue, under the superintendence of the Customs' Depart ment, upon the recant act of the last session of Parliament, cap. 86, as applicable to spirits imported in glass bottles for the purpose of re-exportation to the British colonies, the authorities received a communication from Mr. Cardwell, one of the secretaries to the Lords of the Treasury, stating that he has been commanded by their Lordships to convey to them their permission for directions to be issued allowing geneva to be imported in glass bottles, containing not more than three pints or 12 gills each. This privilege, it appears, had been permitted for a length of time previously to the Act mentioned coming into operation, which Act, in the opinion of the officers (prohibiting as it does, as a ge o n r e o ra t l he r r u v le e , sc the o vessels importation of foreign spirits, unless in c s as uc k h casks or other capable of containing liquids, e vessels being of the size: or content of of of 20 gallons at the least, or in glass bottles or sto ne bottles not exceeding the size of ' quart bottles, and being really part of the cargo of the ship in which the same are imported, and included in the mani fest or other papers enumerating or descriptive 'of the cargo thereof), caused an objection to the continuance of the practice, and therefore they did not feel justified in sanctioning the privilege, until the reception by them of a proper authority from the Treasury in the matter, and as an extensive and important trade had sprung up in conse quence of the length of time the privilege had been per mitted, which was threatened with serious detriment, if not total extinction, if the privilege were at once and suddenly withdrawn, the memorial in question to the Lords of the cers Treasury was rendered necessary, and whic o h produced e the tsoancbil:enoi.7.ficontinued to Lordships f or thes t a h m e e pa t rti b es a c l o lu n d ti A e t h te e d ir . the purpose of exportation, a ques..

This is of considerable importance; and it is not im probable that, as geneva is included amongst the list of articles' on which it is intended that a reduction of duty to a can siderable extent shall shortly take place, the importation of the spirit for h in.. e aisumption in this country will b creased. SUICIDE OF A l‘TEßS:lllNT.—Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held at the Ilairq;:on-cattrt Palace, Ilanipton-street, Newing,tott, before Mr. Carter, on t;: body of Mr. John Shaw, an American merchant, who committed stll.,:2de by cutting his throat, under the following melancholy eircumstantx:.s'—Elizabeth Finch, housemaid in the service of the deceased, who ~resided at No. 5; Walworth-terrace, deposed that her late master was a merchant, _nn of the and had only been married eight weeks before the commis , ra sh act. For some weeks the deceased had been In a low, des , -ond g state of mind, which witness believed was owing to the un M orth." nate gentleman believing that he should lose considerable property in Hudson's Bay and other parts of North America, in the event of the expected war with that country breaking out. On Friday morn ing she took up to the deceased hot water for shaving. Soon after het' mistress called the deceased, hut received no answer. Witness and her mistress went up to his bed-room, but the deceased was not there. The door of an adjoining dressing-room was locked inside, and on this being forced open, the deceased was discovered on his 'ogees, with his throat cut in a dreadful manner, and the floor covered with a pool of blood. Her master was alive, but appeared insensible, and could not articulate. Witness went for Mr. B t odgy o , a surgeon, who promptly arrived. The deceased died a d bo c u cand, o'clock the same day.

(From the Guernsey and Jersey News of Saturday.) The town and neighbourhood of Sand-street was yesterday after noon thrown into a state of great excitement in consequence of a report of a murder having been committed on the person of Mr. Centiliter Le Cronier, by a woman of the name of Le Gendre, at a detestable haunt of vice, well-known under the appellation of " Mul berry Cottage." The house in question is the same in which the riot took place last Saturday, and from whence several abandoned females were lodged in the hospital, and several young men beaten and some severely wounded. The occurrence of this melancholy affair, we learn, took place under the following circumstances : It appears, that Centenier Le Cronier was drawing up a report against the parties who were lodged in gaol on Sunday morning last, for creating a riot at Le Gendre's house, and who were to be pre sented in Court this morning. The Centenier wanted information on some points, and, therefore accompanied by police-officer Manuel, he repaired to the house where the riot occurred, in order to ascer tain the facts he required, and to lodge Le Gendre and his " Wife" in gaol, so as to secure their presence in Court this day. The latter course he•deemed the most sure, and accordingly, when he arrived at the house, he said he was come to arrest them, unless they gave se curity for their appearance in Court. The woman became excited, and exclaimed that she would neither go to gaol nor give security. Tile police said It was useless to re sist, as they were come on purpose to arrest them if they did not give security ; when the woman rushed at the eententer with a large knife which, it is said, she held i❑ her hand beneath her apron, and plunged it deeply into his abdomen on the right side, exclaiming, " Take that, you —, that's my security." The knife penetrated to a considerable extent, Inflicting a trlghtfld wound, from which the bowels protruded. Mr. Le Cronier instantly exclaimed, ‘. Oh, I'm stabbed—l'm a dead man!" and called two or three persons who were present to bear witness that he was about to pronounce his will, whieh was, that his wife should have one-third of his property more than the law allowed her. Mr. Le Cronier was taken to the house of Mr. Binet, currier, and medical assistance was sent for; messenger! were also dispatched for Advocates Godfray and Le Soeur, to reduce Mr. Le Cronier's will to Writing, They both repaired to the spot immediately, When the instrument was drawn up, amidst the tears and lamentationri et the relatives and friends of the dying man. Saturday, Half-past Twelve.—Since the above was in type it is our painful duty to state that the unfortunate victim, Mr. Le Cronier has just died. Ills loss to the community will be severely felt ; as a Zealous officer of police, he was ever on the alert where his duty and patriotism called him, and foremost in every case of danger that came under his notice. He is deeply regretted in a. large circle of friends, and his death must be deeply felt by his bereaved relatives. fl s 1 FIRE AT A COTTON-MILL.—ASHTON UN/An-tisk, Ma lea I.—On rriday eVening, about half-past nine, the greatest excitement was created in Ogg towte s by a report that the extenifiVe eotton , MiLls, belonging to the flrm of Messrs. Thomas Mellor and gobs, and in *Melt neatly one thousand persons are employed, *as on fit°.

Ditifing the time the hands were engaged in carrying water, the private engines belonging to Messrs. Buckley, Mr. Boulton, Messrs. Thacker, and Mr. J. S. Buckley arrived, and on their being got into play with other aid, rendered effective aSSlStance. not, however, before the two tipper rooms, which were built upon the bastard fire-proof principle, had fallen a pray to the flames. The great concern of all now was to save the large mill adjoining, which is not lire-proof, and by dint of great labour, added to there being not much wind at the time, the fire was got under, the door-way forming the communication with this mill froth the room in which the fire took place only being partially burned, The men continued pouring water for some time, and prevented the flames getting flir ther a-head, The fire IS Supposed to have first ignited in the heald room by spontaneous combustion, and the damage is said to be from 6001. to 700 e. Several persons were much hurt, While endeavouring to render asSistAnce, by the falling materials. One man fell a dis tance of four stories, in cOnSequence of the breaking of a ladder which was laid on one mill across to the other. His thigh was broken in two places, and he was otherwise injured. The Messrg. Mellor are not insured for this part of the building. About half-past five On Sunday Morning the town was again alarmed by a cry of fire. On inquiry, we found th it the fire at Messrs. lilellOes had not been effec tually put out, but had again caught the rafters of the ceiling and roof of the old mill. The engines were speedill on the spot, but the fire was got out without their being got into play. THE, TEN HOURS BILL.

Exporters took 600 bales Ame rican. 300 bales Surat, went at 2 ; 150 of Portiere, at 6%d. to 6%d.; 100 Egyptian, at 6 3 /0. to 74d.; and Ame.. rican at 3 3 4 d. to 6d. per lb. There was an improvement in Shares, and an increase in the number of the transactions. The Money-market is rather unsettled by the hostile tone of the American accounts received to-day, as even commer • cial interests does not seem to keep the Executive of tl.e United States within reasonable bounds as respects its pre ' tensions. How much more Brother Jonathan would lose by a war than we should, a few facts will abundantly show. Last year the aggregate value of the imports into the United States from Great Britain was 10,000,000 dollars, and there was a large falling off in the importation of cotton manufactures except calicoes. Now the Yankees supply us with more products than ever, and manifestly will be the most severe sufferers by a war. An American paper bears us out in this view, for it states that "the importation of cotton manufac tures into this country from Great Britain is now principally composed of the finer qualities of goods, and such as we have hardly commenced the manufacture of within our own limits. We are rapidly progressing in the manufacture of calicoes, printed and dyed ; but it will be some time before we shall be able to supply the domestic demand, and must therefore be extensive importers for some time to come. So far as the manufactures of this description of goods have progressed, they are equal to any imported, and successfully compete with the foreign article whenever they come in con tact. The official table gives us an idea of the extent of the markets of this country for the manufactures of Great Britain, and shows that however great may be the position we occupy in producing the raw material, the position we occupy as consumers of the fabrics of England is of very limited value, and exerts very little influence upon the aggregate consumption." The English Securities have been rather seriously depressed this morning, as might be expected, from the tenor of the American advises. Consols have receded to 96 and N% for present transfer, and to 96 1 4 and 95% for time. The pre mium on Exchequer-bills has been steady at 345. to 365.

Upon the Provost refusing to give him any, the man deliberately walked up to some wooden palings, and tore away one of the rails. The 'Rev.

The soldier then attacked two of the students: making a similar demand for money • seizing hold of one, and vio'ently assaulting hi m .
