Such are the effects of $ destructive revolution, ,c , hich haS, every where carried its ravages ; but with order, peace, and good laws, this evil must cease in time ; and it is even remarked that the evil already decreases. In some c ities, such as Brussels and Ilarriburgli, the balance has remained nearly what it was at other periods. Italy has suffered most by the war ; If these calculations are correct, it is the criuntry %%mre the people have been most impoverished ; its industry is gone.

The Hessian Edict against the tibeity of the Press; noticed in a :subsequent 'column,. has ex cited great indignation in many of the German Journals. It is in our opinion an intolerant and unwise,meatture; but such is the natural effect of the abuse of this mighty popular engine, so pre valent in °or. time. The re-action goes us far as the original transgression, and persons in authority in endeavouring to curb demagogues and coun teract their dangerous effects, can scarcely fail to trench upon the better privileges and legitimate freedom of the Press. Thus between lawless anarchy on the one hand, and the strength of power on the other, the world is firnitcd in, if not deprivol of the inestimable blessing of the full and enlightened disenssion. of all that concerns its interests and welfare. We, in England, who so gloriously enjoy the right of saying Hi} that may or ought to be said upon any subject, political or theological, ought to lay the mighty importance which this affords us to our hearts, redouble our watchfulnccs, and prove by our caution, our liberality, our circumspection, our boldness, .our prudence, our integrity, our candour, and our purity, that we are worthy of the trust, reposed in us—of being rather the Ark,' wherein the hopes of man kind are erob4rked, than that in which every ithcleau thing t.ids refuge% to THE EDITOit Or tilE stiff. Cbandos-street, Friday Evening; Sta,—Your undertaking to omit the explaua , tory part of my letter to you, introducing 111 answer to Mr. WYATT, has brought upon me lecture in good breeding from the Editor of the Morning Herald.

DAVISON, Mutt., Taxiit.sa and Co. had been tl)e advertisement to which I referred : but the silver+. tisement to which I did refer, is one which WAS in his own paper on the same. day in whichle launched his positive criticism against me. This ignorance on his part justifies my adjective ;flys terious in my answer to Mr. WYATT, as the ad ver " tisement itself justifies the word saucy, as applied to DAVISON and Co., who employed Pitiwrs, whos e conduet to tae justified the epithet which wa s suppressed. It is due from you to me th'itt you publish this expianation, because you have taken upon your. self to repeat the inaccuracy, which has a ten dency to support the unfavourable remarks of the Editor, of the Morning Herald, in your paper of this day, from whence you have probably drawn your erroneous informalon.
