N. ... vigorous tale, lull of touching and terrible incident."—Lite tory Gazette. _ .. his adherents will determine, or have determined, upon I following about the various important questions to be submitted to the deciion of Parliament. Neverthe less, for the reasons which we have already intimated, we consider this apparent hesitation of the Mieistry to be a conspicuous evidence of their sagacity and forethought. Although their official entrance into the Lower House was almost entirely remark able for the torrent of inquiries with which they were instantly greeted, and for the adroit evasion of those inquiries by themselves, that even ing's performance of our legislators was not wholly destitute of interest. Although the lips of the Cabinet Councillors are virtually sealed for the nonce, and the nature of their forthcoming announcements as dubious as heretofore, we can, notwithstan ling, obtain a glimpse of the futurity which awaits the present Government from the circumstances atten dant upon their first occupation of the Ministerial benches. Those circumstances are significant enough of the popularity of Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S Adminis tration and of the activity which has characterised the preliminary movements of its members—no less than eleven of the newly-elected Ministers simultaneously returned to Parliament as the representatives of their several constituencies. And this fact necessarily in spires us with sentiments of gratification and hopeful ness, sin 2e, from the recent issuing of the writs for those different elections, from the scattered position of the boroughs and counties, and their distance from the seat of government, eleven new Members, all without exception of the most liberal principles, are in finitely more than could have been anticipated eight months ago. Nor is the mere coincidence of their unanimous return by their electors the only propi tious fact among those circumstances ; on the con trary, there is one of a still more encouraging cha racter, namely, the enthusiasm which has been testi fied in those different borough and county elections in favour, not so much of the candidates, as of the noble and enlarging principles of which they were the ex ponents and the advocates. The Premier, Lord Jouß RUSSELL, was proclaimed the representative of the citizens of London by acclamation. Sir GEORGE GREY, the Home Secretary, was returned by the enfran chised people of Devonport with similar unanimity and similar expressions of satisfaction. Colonel Fox, the Surveyor of the Ordnance,was declared by the returning officer to be duly elected as the representative of the Tower Hamlets, notwithstanding a feeble and blunder ing effort to advance an opposing candidate. Sir Jouß CAM HOBHOUSE, President of the Board of Control, was acknowledged to be the recipient of the suffrages of Nottingham, in the teeth of an earnest and pertinacious opposition. Lord PALNIEasTos, the Foreign Secretary, was returned for Tiverton with out a dissentient voice. Mr. JERVIS, the Attorney. General, in like manner, has, so to speak, received his credentials from the electors •of Chester. Mr. LABOUCIIERE, Secretary for Ireland, with the universal applause of his constitu ency, was pronounced to be the representative of Taunton. Admiral Efustnas, one of the Lords of the Admiralty, was speedily reinstated in his dignity as Member for Greenwich, without even a hint at oppo- Ation. Mr. C. WOOD, Chancellor of the Exchequer, after the mere phantom of an antagonist had been put in nomination at Halifax was declared to be the successful candidate for that borough. Lord MARCUS HILL, Comptroller of the Household, obtained, if possible, a more undoubted welcome at Eyeshot!), and the Hon. Captain BERKELEY, another of the Lords of the Admiralty, as the phrase goes, " walked over the course" for the representation of Gloucester. Other instances of this enthusiastic welcome of the Ministerial candidates might be adduced and particu larised in the person of the Hon.

Previous to the Comedy the Band w.II perform the Over.ure to " Oberon." The principal members of the new Administration on Monday took their places in the House for the first time after their re-election. It would, of course, have been impossible for them to have maturely con sidered the course to be adopted by them on the various questions of consequence which were alluded to in the course of the evening, or to be enabled to state the line of conduct to be pursued with respect to each. All that could be hoped for was that an early day would be appointed that the Ministerial intentions might be Lilly set forth as to the various measures of the late 1 Government which would be proceeded with, dropped or altered in some particulars during the present session. The Premier has fixed Thursday next for this important explanation, and it must be admitted that no unreasonable delay has been demanded for that purpose. The public attention in Ireland has been particularly directed to the three Bills brought forward by Lord LINCOLN immediately before his retiring from office, for the improvement of the relationship between landlord and tenant, by granting compensation to the tenants for permanent and valuable improvements effected by them on their holdings during their occupation, if' sulnequently deprived of the enjoyment thereof, and also for the improvement of the law relating to , j ctment, and the diminution of stamp duties on leases—for, although these Bills by no means go far enough, or effect all that is required on the saject, yet they were received by all clas=es and parties as valuable improvements and moves in the right direc tion, the principle of which would, without doubt, be much extended in the next ses sion. We were, therefore, much gratified by the statement made with respect th ere t o b y the Ri ght Hon. the Secretary for Ireland, who said that he had, with others, been engaged in a careful examination of those measures, with a view of seeing whether any benefit in them to Ireland could not be se cured notwithstanding the change of Government, and promised that the Premier or himself would, on Thursday, state the course the Government would take with respect to them. We have already pointed out the vast importance of the first of these measures : improvements of the greatest consequence both to landlord and tenant, calculated permanently to in crease the value of the farms, have not been effected, because the tenant could not be assured that be should enjoy an adequate return for the capital expended, either in the length and certainty of his tenure, or in the obtaining a fair compensation for his outlay and labour on quitting his farm. We ex pressed our regret that it was not retrospective in its nature, and that it allowed compensation only for im provements hereafter to be effected, hut that no allow ance was to be made for the improvementsof a similar nature, which had already taken place ; we do nct o,„- conce i ve that there would be any extraordinary diffi , • I culty in estimating the value of such improvements, the time when they were made, and the allowance to which the tenant should be entitled therefore—thesame machinery which is adopted for the other purposes mentioned in the Bill would be amply sufficient for that also. Had such a law been in operation, we should have been spared the contemplation of the painful scene which recently took place at Bird Hill, in the county Already has the new Administration commenced of Tipperary, where a tenant, who had expended his its Parliamentary labours ; the first chapter of the e n tire capital in erecting a dwelling-house and other 1 Ministerial catechism in th e C ommons was peruse d , bu i ld i ngs, to t h e amount o f over 1 ,500/.,w as t urne d, w i t h on Monday, and the answers of the Prime Minister , his family, on the wide world, for an arrear of rent and . his associates was (considering the uproar of ' emounting to not more than one-sixth of the sum ex curiosity which prevailed among their inquirers), to pended by him within a few short years, and w hi ch all intents and purposes, satisfactory.

An immediate introduction of rerorraatory measures, before the excitement conse quent upon their nomination to office, or an explicit re velation of their intentions, would augur but little for , the vviiiom or the precision of the Ministry, when is remembered that their Parliamentary numbers are, up to the present moment; incomplete. The public is, ttie - iefore, abandoned to the same uncertainty:with rem= to_the couzae which Lurti J: ittruzu, ar►d gratify the cupidity of his landlord ; but if the mea sure should not be extended during the present ses sion, at least let it be carried into effect as it now stands, and let the earliest and most serious considera tion of the Government be devoted to the subject, on which, of all others, the happiness and prosperity of our sister kingdom is so dependent..

We cannot hope for an immediate settlement of these questions, but we trust that before the next session the Government intentions with respect thereto will be fully matured and laid before the public for their approval.

The Cotton-market at Liverpool yesterday was 'steady. Sales, 6,000 bales, 500 being for export and 1,500 on specu tion. The finer descriptions were scarcest. Shares were rather drooping. Perhaps no visit made by Ibrahim Pacha will tend more to advance the mercantile Intercourse between this country and Egypt than that of Saturday, when not only the. Royal Exchange, but Lloyd's Coffee and Uuderwriting-house were honoured by the presence of the intelligent individual just named. Mr. G. .R. Robinson, the Chairman of Lloyd's, had, through the inter preter of the Pacha, very many questions put to him respecting the mode in which th; business of this vast establishment was conducted, and we are told that the Egyptian Prince was astonished at the ready manner in which lines of from 1,000/. to 5,000/. or more were taken upon a sea risk. Front what fell from the Pacha, there is no doubt but that vast improvements are in tended in conducting the Custom -house arrangements of the ports of Egyp', and also that as far as possible every en cnuraement will be given to promote the commerce between the two countries. There has been pretty general satisfaction expressed at the course which Lord John Russell has announced it as being his intention to pursue upon the subject of the sugar duties, as by providing for a short continuance of the present duty, and yet announcing his plan for the future, the injurious consequence of a sudden ci ange will be averted, and at the same time. uncertainty will be removetl.

The progress of fiscal reform has necessitated the production of another "Customs Book of Rates," which from its extremely compact size, and, above all its correctness, when so many loosely collated tables are being brought out, will be parti. cularly acceptable to those engaged in mercantile pursuits. Mr. Hume, in a communication upon the subject of the tariff a year or two ago, very appropriately remarked, that our tariff had indeed been brought into a small compass, but that he expected to see it half the size yet. How com pletely verified are that gentleman's opinions, let stay one look at the last tables, and judge for himself. The Levant mail has arrived, bringing intelligence from Syria, Constantinople, and Greece, to the 27th June, and from Malta to the 4th July. At that date the Lebanon was completely pacified. It was re ported at Constantinople that the Russians had sus tained some reverses in Daghestan. Greece still con tinued infested with brigands.

Witness replied, •At seven this morning.' ' Who was on guard ?' Witness replied, 'I do not know. And nothing more passed between them. "Commandant Demole declared that lie had been at first deceived by the assertion of Dr. Connaat that the Prince was ill, and next by the declaration of the servant appointed to make up the rooms in the Prince's apartment, who said to him-.'

It was thought Paredes would have 16,000 mei in the field against the forces of General Taylor. H. was to take the command in person. General Mejja superseded Arista. General Alvarez has possession the city of Acapulco, on the Pacific, where he has raised the standard of " Federation," within 300 miles of thi.i capital.

The most ex traordinary enthusiasm seems to prevail among a large part «of the Mexican people, the Yucstecos particularly u► favour of annexation. It is retnarkab:e that peopl, who have had — so little intercourse with the Northeri Republic,—who have been, as it were, shut otit from the Americans, should thus voluntarily seek adin6sion t, the great confederacy. It is an act of homage to the federative principle of Government, whici: ought to make a lasting impression upon all civilised nations. Nor is it less remarkable than the views lately broached in the British Parliament by Lord Bentinck, who proposed to amend the British constitution, by incorporating the colonies as integral portions of the empire, or as states having their own domestic legislatures, establishing a federative monarchy to which neighbouring commonwealths and nations would naturally annex themselves. Thus the superior races on the Eastern Hemisphere and their descendants on the Western might become the conservators of peat and good govtrument throughout the world. CANADA. We have received accounts, as already intimated, t the latest dates. The following are the chief item. worthy of notice. The Ministry was broken up. Si Allan Metiab is said to be Adjutant-General. We find the following paragraph, headed " Canada,' in one of the New York papers of June 20 : " CANADA. — ANtiii.xamos.—Tbe British Cabinet late have been uneasy in relation to the commercial affairs of the Canadas. Merchants are beginning t , emigrate to !1,.

States:- The question, meter these eire,iin • stances. is frequently asked in England, why go ti. .uch heavy expense to defend Canada against the Yankees, when, in fact. our own subjects render suet, defence untinecessary.' Annexation is becoming most. popular." A very destructive fire had taken place in St. John' New Brunswick, and destroyed property to the amour of 10,0001. No lives, we believe, were lost. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. The money market at New York had cecome " sta; nant." The demand for foreign exchange on the 30; ult., was heavy, and the closing rates for sterling bil were 74 to 8i per cent. premium. The following are extracts from the American papers: AWFUL CATASTROPHE ! LOSS OF THE BRIG SUTLEDGE, OF PICTOU, N.S. THIRTY PER. SONS DROWNED. The melancholy news of the loss of the brig► Sutledge, Capt. Gresham, of and from Pictou, N. S., for Fall River WAS r ceived here this morning ab ,ut half past oir.e o'clo lc, by the arrival of the schooner Dusky Sally, Capt. Wilder, of and from,flingharn. On the arrival of the schooner at Stevens' wharf, the information rapidly spread to all parts of the town, alio the appalling scene presented was one the like of which our inhanitatits have seldom had occasion to witnes, On the deck lay the dead bodies of those who had been picked up from the wreck, surrounded by their kindred and friends who bad been r4s3tted from a watery grave, giving vent to their feelings in the most agonizing manner. The following particulars of the loss of the brig we have received from the captain, who was among the survivors : " The brig Sutledge, of and from Pictou for Fa) River, sailed on the 12th of June, with 56 pass,..nti;ers— men, women, and children. On the evening of the 26th, at eight o'eloelc, it. being thick and foggy, c one to anchor ; and at two o'clock, on the following morning, got under weigh, ar i d aiemt half-past three struck on a ledge of rock* (in the Vineyard) called the Saw and Suon after which, the tide having caused her to slew round, she bcked off the ledge, tided, 41111 wen: down, bow first, in ten fathoms water. Previous to her giiing down the mite was sent below, forward, to ascer tel.,' if the brig leaked, but he discovered nothing that hoked like it—the putup was then , rdered to 13:, sounded, but before th it could be done, water was re;ti.rted in the foieiAstle. The boat aas then got out and the pa , s , ng ,, rs rushed into it, when the captain gave Crde ,. s o shove her from the brig. He teen jemp.d oecrboaid 'aid swim to the boit, and kept her as et.i , e to the brt as possible, picking up such as jump e d 7n o the water. The whole number picked up in the captain's boat was 31 ultve. The schooner Dusky Sally, being neer, sent her boat to ass t, and succeeded in savin g six more alive, who were in the water, and - three in ire from the rigging of the b tv, n brig. Sixteen dead bodies, (four women an.l twelve children), were also picked up by the two boats, which together with toe suritvo:s, were put on biard the D. S. and brought to this place, as above stated. The Captain 0,140 states THE CALEDONIA. The Britiii and North American Royal Mail steam ship, Captain Lott, arrived here last night, about half past eleven o'clock. She sailed from Boston on the lit just., and Halifax on the 3d, making the passage, in cluding her call and stay at Halifax, in about twelve days and a half. The Caledonia had 102 passengers and the semi-monthly mails from Canada and the Ur.ited States. The Britannia arrived at Halifax on the 2d inst. By this arrival we have received New York papers of the 30th tilt, being five days later than those brought over by the Great Western. We have also received New Orleans, Charleston, Philadelphia, Washington, and Boston papers to the latest dates, as well as files from several parts of Canada, and either ports of the British American provinces. The news in the United States papers, although it cannot be styled important, is on the whole of an interesting character, having spe cial reference to the " American tariff," the Mexican war, affairs in Mexico, business prospects, &c. With regard to the tariff, we are informed by the papers just come to hand that the debate thereon was to be ended on the 2d inst. It seems that the fate of that measure is universally anticipated, as the public has made up its mind to reduce the tariff. In tte event of the House accevding to the fr,e trade " views of Mr. Secretary Walker, it is expected that Mr. Webster will propose a comproini , e in the Senate, and that his plan will finally pass both Houses of Congress without any serious or determined opposition. There it; not any news of a definite character from the seat of War. Advices have been rcceived from Matamoras up to the 12th ult. In our summary of the news by the Great Western, we mentioned that General Taylor was on his way to Reinoso, in New Leon. The advicea come to hand by the Caledonia inform us that the inhabitants of that town had surrendered without resistance, and that the authorities of Camargo had sent a deputation to General Taylor, offering him full possession of that place. Tne facts have been blazoned forth in all the New York papers with an air of importance quite beyond their merits. To talk and write of such " brilliant achievements" as Lave been performed by the " army of occupation" is too bad. Paredes was collecting his forces at a mountain pass near . Monterey, where, .if anywhere, he will interrupt the march of the United States army. The western expedition into New Mexico was expected to take up its march from the Missouri between the 15th and 20th of June. Some of the leading Now York journals appear tired of the war, and would gladly have it ended. The United States Go vernment are ready to receive any overtures that may be made by Mexico for arranging their dit fereneks' by other means, instead of murderous swurt`s and bayoners, and the'destructive volleys of great and ilea!l guns; notwithstanding the American Govern ment are active and energetic in their preparations for prosecuting the war, should it be necessary to do so. Arms and ammunition, with a number of artille rymen, had been dispatched to the Pacific, and would be stationed either at Monterey or the Bay of San Francisco. It was reported both at Washingo and New York, previous to the sailing of the Caledonia, that Mr. M‘Duffie, the newly-appointed Chairman of the C9tninittee on Foreign Affairs, was preparing the basis .if an arrangement for the adjustment of the difficulties with Mexico, and it was confidently expected that he would submit his .plan to the President and the Senate before July 4. that another vessel was at the same time picking up what was adrift from the wreck, &c. MEXICAN WAR. (From the Neu , York Enquirer.) The Union is sorely worried ay Mr. Webster's recent calm and philosophic speech upon the Mexican war, and the ways and means necessary to carry it on, and it cites Mr. Walker often, and Mr. Woodbury's old reports, at times to refute him. This Makes people in this part of the country, who know that when Mr. Webster speaks on the finances of the Govern .tent he but reflects the opinions of commercial and business men whom he consults, and who, therefore, through him speak in behalf of experience and practical wisdom, smile. Mr. Walker, neither as a practical nor theo retical financier, has much respect among that class of men, and Mr. Wo o dbury's old reports were all romances or sphynx's riddles. The Union persists that the Warehou=sing Bill will add Mr. Walker's million to the revenue. It is to so augment our imports, we are told, by cheapening prices to the consumer, that the excess of imports, even under a low tariff, will make up this duty. The grave Solon does not inform us how we are ever to pay, in this country, for this excess of imports, when even now, under what is called the high and black Tariff of 1842, we are often drained of the precious metals to pay Euro pean workmen for making for us this excess of importa tions. The country cannot import more than it can pay for, for the very obvious reason that Europe will cease selling when we cease paying. The chief point upon which, however, the Fawn ex pends the most of its ammunition, is upon what Mr. Webster says of the Mexican war. Because Mr. Web ster did not, in his speech, condemn that war as unne cessary aggressive, and unconstitutional in advancing our troops to the Rio Grande, beyond the limits of the union, the Union would fain infer from some incidental remarks, that he gives a quasi sanction to it. Mr. Web ster reserves his rtmarks upon this subject, no doubt, as we 1,11 reserve our remarks till the war is over, and the cost is counted, but if in him the Union expects a con vert, it will find itself much m;staken. The Union is for fighting on. until Mexico sues for peace, and therefore censures Mr. Wehster's idea of a peaceful embassy, or any suspension of hostilities till we have troddtn Mexico under our feet. It flippantly prattles of twitching within the wafts of thw capital, when, if this over be possible, against an united enemy, it. cannot h.- done within a year, and at a cost less than 150.000 000, in the necessary outfit of men and artna m-nts. No one proposes now to abandon our war with Mexico, without the prospect of a permanent peace, but all sane patriotic men urge that the olive branch go with he sword,---that, with the ability to conquer, we show the disposition to settle, on equitable terms, an abiding peace. _ The mock hertics of the Union in treating of this poor, shattered, anarchical, contemptible Mexi.:o, as it she were England, or France, are both ludicrous and piti able. Tt.ere was a peril in the 50.40 swaggering in the face of John Bull, that lent dignity to the blusterer, but these heroics and antics before a Mexican, are like bullying a woman. When we have thrashed senseless Mexico, as Mr. Webster well calls her, into her senses, as we partially have by this time, it is quite time to tell her, we whip her as a master does his schoolboy, not for the love of it, but to teach him better behaviour. and when he promises better fasEions, to hang up the switch. In this war with Mexico, we, a strong, and compara tively rich paver, owe something to the respect of man kind, to civilisation, and to Christianity —unless war is to become with us a trade, and conquest. instead of com merce, our chief purshit. The annexation of TeXas what the French call a fait accompli, but we cannot deceive ourselves, or hide from the world the..

Now, in this state of things, particularly when we are threatening the armed occupation of California, we owe it as a mark of resp ct to the world, to show, that it is hot: war and c , mquest we are pursuing as a. trade, but peace. and that an equitable peace is all we de,ire. • The Government, hots ever, as the Union is it. organ, is clearly for pursuing a war of couqu st. and a long war. It will probably be arrested only by the bank ruptcy of the Treasury, and the necessity of inpo-i g alarming taxes. It a ill' then walk out of favour with the speed of a locomotive. LETTER FROM MR. CLAY., Thefollowing letter from Henry Cay, addi:eiSed - rn a mercantile house of high standing, is published in the Couria Ashland, June 5, 1846. Gentlemen,—l postponed answering y, air favour until the arrival of the articles to which it refers, which you have been kind enough to present to me. They reached here yesterday in safety, and I request your ac c, atatiee of my thanks fer them. 'Die pleasure which we shall derive from using them will ba much increased by the fact that both the raw material and the fabric are American. Their excellence attests the perfection which this important, branch of wool!, it manufactures ias attained in the United States, and it is the m o re gra tifying because of the great difficulties with which they 'gave eenstantly had to cone nd. On both sides of the Atlantic, !he policy of affording itrotetion to domestic manufactures appears to be under ; ,,, nsideration in• the national legislature. The British Minister ha,s brought forward a nri , n,11:1-• embracing - the doctrines of tree trade, not howeiter *ahem exceptions ..f several, and some very lime - grant, articl a. Te e manufactures of Great Britain have reached a very high :leeree of perfection, by moans of her grew capital, her improved skill and marthin, ry, her cheap labour, and ander a system of proteaum, Lug, perseveringly and rigorously enforced. She in, reover possesses immense advantages for the sale and distribution of numerous manufactures, in her vast colonial possessiims, from which those of foreign powers are either entirely ex cluded, or admitted on terms 'pry unequal with her own. I am not, therefore, surprised that utider these favour Jilt! circumstances, Great Britain should herself be de sirous to adopt, and to prevail on other nations to a& ipt, he principles of free trade. I shall he, if any of the great nations of the Continent should follow an example, the practical effects of which will be so beneficial to her and so injurious to them. The propriety of affording protection to domestic manufactures, its degree and its duration, dep'nd upou the national condition and the actual progress which ;hey have made. Each nation, of right, ought to judge for itself. I believe that history records no instance of any great and prosperous nation, which dill not draw its essential supplies of food and raiment from within its own limits. If all nations were just commencing their career, or if their rirmufactures had all made equal proeress, it might uerhaps be wise to throw open the markets of the world to the freest and most unrestricted constitution. slut it is manifest, that, while the manufactures of some lave acquired all the maturity and perfection of which ,hey are susceptible, and those of others are yet in their nfancy, struggling hard for existence, a tree cernpeti ion between them must redound to the advantage of the .xperi,need and skilful, and to the injury W . those who :.e just beginning to naturalise aad establish the ;arts. No earthly gratification to the heart of a .s , t!7t'sm4n 'an he gts'atter. th,4l that of hosing contribeedio the doption of a great system of oat anal p fn y, and of afterwards witnessing its complete success ie its practical Iteration. That gmification can be enjoyed by tilos, who were instrumental in establis'iag the policy of pro iecting our &mystic manufactures. • Every promisit which they made has been fulfilled. Ev.ry prediction vhich they hazarded as to the quality andleantity of lie domestic supply, as to th. rettu.ttion of prio,is, as to 'ha' effect of eitupetitioit at home, anti as tott.t)catiumi :ince of the public revenue, has b,en fully realised. And it is no less remarkable that every counter prediction, without exception, of the opponents of the policy, has, in the sequel, been entirely d. Without tracing particularly the operation of our earlier teras,•la.ijusted to both the objects of revenue eud protection. and coming down to the last it seems to :ne that if there ever were a ben fleet' effect from any oublic tnea.ure fay demonstrated, it is, that the tariff , f 1842, beyond all controversy, reli-ned bah the qr.. vertiment and the people of the United States, from a .tate of pecuniary embarrassment bordering on bank 'uptcy. Entertaining th ese v i ews and opinions, I should 'ettply regret any abandonment of the policy of pro. eetion, or any material alteration of the tariff of 1642, which has worked so well. If its operation had been even doubtful, would it not be wiser to await further developments from experience, before we plunge into a now anti unexplored theory ? Scarcely any misfortune to so great to the business and pursuits of a people as hat of perpetual change. I am sensible that. I have extended this letter to a most unreasonable length. I hope you will excuse and attribute it to the beautiful fruits of a favourite and Aterished policy which you. have kindly seht to Your friend and obedient Servant, (Signed) H. CLAY. 'LOUSE OF REP; ESENTATIVES—WASHINC T -N, JUNE, 24, 1846. RELATIONS WITH IiII.;XICO—EUROPEAN INTERFERENCE ON THE AMERICAN HEMISPHERE. Mr. C. J. Ingers o ll, f rom the Coinaiittee on Foreign Affairs, made a report on the subject of our relations with Mexico, justifying the declaration of war against that republic, and arguing generally, aid at great length, from positions which are laid down in the coumnuceenent of the report, and are as follows " With great respect, and not till long after forbear_ anise was itnpracticabl the constituted atlihoritirs:of the United States find f ,rte the only means of self defence from long continued, unprovoked, aggravat, d, aid insof ferable injuries, inflicted by a sister republic and neigh bouring nation, with whom our prefere..ce was elite alliance, and against whom the saorel is draman with infinite reluctance. But, as was the case in the ear, at last, after many years of endurance, extorted from this Govertuneet by Great Britain, in 1812, there was no alternative but war to repel and punish the provoking hostilities perm tlited upon us by Mexico, without (ex cept in the afftirs of Texas) the slight, st pretext tor them. American property, persons, commerce, treaties, public ministers, consuls, messengers, crews of national •vessels, at length our soil and soldiery, subjected to outrageous wrong=, seizure, incarceration, insult, homi cide, and even inhuman violation of the dead, at last compelled th e A mer i can Government to a vindication of their people, and no alternative but war or extreme de gradatton." Tne committer advert to the views of Mr. Munroe and other , , in regard to the subjt•et of European intenerenee on the American con.inent, and express tli sentiments: " We owe it to candour, and to the amicable relations existing between the United States and other powers, to declare that we sh , •uld consider any attempt on their part to weal their On Europe) Votes to an , pos. ton of the hemisphere, as dangerous to our,peace sa'ety.
