There has bcca a meeting of the landowners called to con6ider Sir B. PEEL'6 speech, at which V.e Duke ot....Bucii.t.NGLza:a and his friends have (..kcl.;.red themselves satistiedwith dle iilaronet. The union is perfec:7, and the Toric.; may carey, - ,on the Guvertint,2..lt with a high hand. It will be an act of kindness in them, when.. so fully assured of their strength in the Houses' of Parliament, if they grant to the necessities of the na':ion the least relaxation of the 0di011,3 laws they have assembled to maintain. Some Radicals are inclined, we see, to expect a Liberal policy from Si. It;EnnT - PEEL• we 'not comprehend on what grout As. They Le may have opened his eyes to the condiii , )n of the country, and be ILOW CliqMSed to forward reforms which he must know to be inevitable. That seems to us to imply that Sir R. P E. place himself at the head of the movement party directing, it, moderating its ardour, and yet com plying with its most reasonable demands. Sir H. PE: L's whole life contradkts the sti - pposition. He entered the Ministry as a servant of the Tories, and he has ever been faithful to his em ployers. The only time when he appeared -to forsake them, he ouhmitted to the Duke of WEE: LINGToN, but even then he • cted for their advan tage. He carried Catholic Emancipation to keep them and kimself in office. ith a princely fortune which might make him thoroughly- hide dependent —sprung from the people—be has had no higher ambition than to recommend himself to the aristocracy. He has aped their.manners and aspired to thei: alliance. He has laboured to build up and eotrsolidate a party. for their sup- NFL J3y that party, composW. of all the cor- ptionic.ts of The: efupirc, he has, been carried Into office c:Ayre&sly -- to upltold their monopolies . . Can he now turn round and kick down, the eiiiice he has reared ? We believe not, and therefore, that lie is irrecoverably , bound to the doctrines and principles Of the intolcrant and plundering party of which he is the head. if Le had become more liberal in lie might have shewu his liberality out of office. Has he done any thing of the kind? Has he ever deviated from the '['cry policy of supporting ever;,' coercive, every restrictive measure, Li ' Cs and opposing every extension of freedo t•, and every removal of restriction, Unless it might lie some of Which the removal promoted the wealth of a few planters? man has hboured o strenuously or employed so much sophistry .to defend the bread -tax and the dis eritninaiingsugar duty vs Sir R. PEEL, No man has professeti a more devoted attachment tti the Church, or has more strongly urged the opinion that it is the duty of the , State to provide reli7,ious instruction in the State religion for all the people. For Sir Ronntrr PEEL now to concede reform—for hint to take the lead in.proltioting the extension of the sufirag-e, the removal of commercial re- strietim:;, and giving perfect equality ,to all sects--is as wild a supposition as ever entered the heart ofma,n, It is contradicted by the whole tenor of Sir It. Prat's political life, and by his latest declarations. lie is the mere tool of the aristocracy and the priesthood, to abate whose unjust power, extorted wealth, and unbridled ar ro!rance is the end and aiin of all reform. Be_ fore he can Leconte a Reformer, such as is now needed, he must change his nature, and cease to he Sir ROBERT PEEL. Tile Right Hon. Baronet is now in his 33d year, and it is remarked, we think by GOETHE, that if a man have not great ideas befbre he reach the age of thirty, he will never be a great man. To this day Sir R. PEEL has never dis played any of the qualities of a great Statesman. He is in no sense an original man. lie is a great actor, a good orator ;, he dreses up a case Well ti:e House of Conunein;, but he has no love for truth, • and be never framed a compre hensive plan of national policy. He acts always by shifts and expedients. He has no .forethought. His world is the House of Com- His policy is liMited to parties. He knows nothing of the great natural principles -which govern society, and which set at nought the decrees of Parliament. He cannot be the man of the age, and his attempt to carry on the Go vernment for the belioof of the monopolists and the corruptionists, fbr the benefit of the priest hood and the aristocracy, must end in the total demoralization of society, or in a revolution. For us it was a fittal augury when we heard him express sympathy for the taxed foreigner, whom, for a party purpose, he sometime ago described as little exposed to taxes; and heard him defend the poll-tax levied on his. own countrymen. He preaches that cheap humanity, which costs nothing, but he will find it his duty to enforce the law which ptqs money into his own pocket. mons. In another part of The Sun appears a letter, headed " Wages," of which the orthography is a • sufficient proof that the signature— " A Working Man," is not improperly assumed. We earnestly beg the attention of other working men to that statement, because it now depends on them, and on them exclusively, whether the Corn-laws shall be entirely and almost immediately re pealed, rendering England once again the happy home of her industrious children, and quietly insuring all other much-needed reforms, or whether those laws. shall be continued, banishing her people -to other countries, in suring,the dominion of selfish fraud, and making this once pleasant abode of the enlightened and the free a home only "forf.'rampant tyrants and crawling slaves. We say emphaticallyait depends exclusively onthe work ing classes, for their silence,._ is the most powerful argu ment of the rent-owners, and Their patient submission the strength of their oppressors. Th6y.are appealed to, and they have but to arouse themselves, - mat 'declare against the Corn-laws to secure the annihilation Uf the , odious tax. • - It ought to be highly flattering to the working classes to, observe how the rent-owners and the capitalists now mutually censure each other for fleecing the poor; The rent-owners absolutely defend their own monopoly by accusing the capitalists of only wishing to. have it abo lished, in order to beat down the wages of labour. The capitalists attack the Corn-law because it loWers the wages of labour and injures the industrious classes. Be twixt the two charges the people must decide. We profess, in advocating the total repeal of the Corn laws, a desire to promote the general good. No man can deny that the abolition of those laws would be the remee.al of a very onerous restriction, the repulsion of a serious invasion of the rights of property, and an approxi mation to freedom. We are guided, then, by general prin ciples, and not by any wish to augment the wealth and add to the power of the capitalists. On. several occasions this Journal has condemned their conduct in the manufacturing districts. Although there arc many bright and noble exceptions, they have shown themselves a great deal too ready to separate themselves from their fellow-labourers, the working classes, to imi• tate the heartless vices of the rent-owners, and make common cause with them against their own servants, workmen, and friends. They have at present their re ward in being despiSed by the rent-owners and forsaken (politically) by their workmen. We trust, however, that the ruin now impending over them, while the class they have sillily wershipped mocks et their complaints and treats their demands with contempt, will make them give up their apish idolatry, and found their success and their power on cultivating the affections of their own workmen. Their present condition has drawn them to the neces sity of courting those whom they have heretofore re pelled ; and our serious and earnest advice to the work ing classes is to meet their advances. The capitalists, like the labourers, suffer from the bread-tax, and the two united could, in spite of the rent-owners, command its repeal. That will get rid of one great wrong, and enable the community to get rid of others. The landown:r's sense Of j latee AVOU:€I sharpened by his loss, and he weal become the aealutis ally of the working classes in aholialtieg other monopolies, and redressing other griev- To bring him over to the side of justice he must be compelled to do justice. By now uniting, therefure, with the capitalists to secure the abolition of the bread tax, the working classes would bring over the law-making classes to their side, and so ensure the completion of all other required reforms. . They are afraid, however, that in the meantime wa7s would be lowered, machinery would be extended, and they \vould be injured or starred.

Whatever might be the temptation under a repeal of the Corn-laws to substitute machinery for manual labour, assuredly that .temptation is .much stronger under the laws—except, indeed, as the exist ence of the law throws thousands of men out of work, and makes them willing to work for the smallest portion of food that will maintain them in life. MICCS. The -fear of being thrown out of work by the 1.1',0 of machinery is idle. Where is the Ocrhand for labour most brisk, and where is it best paid ? In the manufacturing- districts—badly, even, . _ _ Is it is there paid Into them labourers now flock from the agricultural districts.

Where, but in the trading and manufacturing districts, and there alone, and by the means alone there to be fuund, could they have been raised from the obscurity of their ancestors, to become the associates, as well as the toadies and defenders of those who revile their origin and plunder the people. They now forget the source of their greatness, and equally meanly and wickedly employ it to defend injustice. Where machinery abounds, as in Glasgow, and Manchester, and Leeds, and Birmingham, the labourers have most in creased, and find most employment.

'We have given in another part of this paper an account of the meeiing held at the That:lied House Tavern, on Saturday, in honour of the late Sir DAVID WILKIE. A resolution to erect a monument to his memory was unanimously adopted, and upwards of I,OUO/. were subscribed at once . . Sir R. PErL was in the Chair, and he was supported by some of the first men of taste in the country. It will be gratifying to the countrymen of this celebrated painter, and to those who admire genius and upright conduct, to learn that all who spoke at the meeting seemed more anxious to praise his generous disposition and his virtuous habits than to extol - those works which ;ire brought him into notice. His works are well known. They require no praise i they will live when all the men who met at the Thatched House Tavern on Saturday are forgotten. He was, without exception, the first painter of the age. He was the son of a poor Clergyman in Fifeshire, came up to Lon don without introduction or patrons, his merit alone introduced him info the first society, and it is a proud tribute to genius -to find that the first Nobles and Commoners of the land regarded his acquaintance as an honour. He went abroad to find new sul. • jects for his fertile genius, was 'seized with illness, and died on board a vessel off Gibraltar, and from the strict system of quarantine established in that settle ment the body could not be landed, and was therefore consigned to the deep. This circum stance alone will make hiS funeral more remark ablethan if he had been buried with all the usual pomp and ceremony in Westminster Abbey or St. Paul's. The whole of the Paris Journals of Friday and Sa turday have been received. In our Summary of Public Opinion will be found a complete epitome of their views respecting the conflict of parties in England, to which we at once refer our readers. The Moniteur of Saturday announces, by telegraph, the closing of the Spanish Cortes on the 24th instant. It adds that on the 23d, a decree of the REGENT was read, "appointing Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA to a seat in the Senate. This, the same official journal of yes terday, (Sunday) admits to be incorrect, the person ap pointed a Senator being M. FACUNDO INFANTA. The following extracts fryn these journals include all the miscellaneous news they bring of any general im portance. We have received this morninc , the Toulouse Journals of the 26th. It will be remembered that M. Gase wrote a letter to the bar, in several towns, to learn their opinions as to the re sistance of the Provisional Municipality of Toulouse to MM. Lejeurs, Astro, and Dunes, on their going to enter on their office. The Emancipator announces that the bars of Amiens, Limoges; and Montpellier, have given opinio ns f avoura bl e t o MM.Arize,-.lloaldes, and Gase. Twenty-six persons;:. arrested at Bordeaux during the riots, appeared on the 25th at the police office ; of this number four were discharged, five condemned to ten days' imprisonment, fourteen to a month, and three to two months' imprisonment.. Eight of those who are condemned are to remove, when their time of imprisonment is expired, to the distance of ten myria rnees from the city of Bordeaux.—Le Constitutionnel. The Pope has addressed a brief, dated the 12th inst., to the Vicar Apostolic of Gibraltar, in which his Holiness condemns, in decided but mild terms, the conduct of various Catholics who instituted the late proceedings against the Prelate. The Pope exhorts them to return td canonical obedience, and adds We are consoled by the thought that, under the glorious government of the Most Serene and Puissant Queen of Great Britain, there is no cause to fear that a fresh injury should be done us, or that the treaty of Utrecht, which ensures the ex ercise of the Catholic religion among you, should be violated, more especially since, in the most flourishing kingdom of Great Britain, through the justice of her Majesty, the Catho lics and the Bishops enjoy the full exercise of our most holy religion." 't he Mediterranean squadron, under the command of Vice- Admiral Hugon, left Toulon on the 26th inst., to continue its manoeuvres. The Marengo and Triton, of the line, left on the same day for Algiers. 'the Tarn corvette sailed on the 24th for Mahon, and on the 23th the Cregeuis s:eamer arrived at Toulon from that port.

The organs of the monopolists may denounce them as poli tical priests, as.i,seditious - sectarians, as ignorant pre sumptuous intersneddlers, and expend upon them their well-nigh inexhaustible vocabulary of insolent malig nant abuse ; at leak, they cannot call them Priests of Baal, or Iligh Priests of Mammon. When monopoly is denounced by all the spiritual pastors of the people, who are held in any degree of honour, its doom cannot be far distant." The Manchester Times, alluding to the Earl of Ripon's speech in tha House of Lords says—" There is no finding the fitt;.ng time for these possessors of hereditary wis dom. • When the country was silent upon the question of the Corn-law there was no occasion for its discussion; • and now, when men are maddened by the continuance of an 'intolerable oppression, it is not the lime to take it into -consideration. llis Lordship's reply is that of the cow-hiding Virginian planter, " I shan't cease hiding you, because , you cry out." But the. the time is perhaps not far distant when the lash may change hands. The Hertford Times says :—" The Liberal party, as a whole, is now disrupted ; there is no grand connecting link, holding all parties together, and affording a cable with which the vessel of freedom may safely ride at anchor, in the harbour of any port for which she may he destined. The numerous titles by which the various sections of the Liberals are distinguished, themselves are signs of weakness.. - Old and new' Whigs, Radicals, and Chartists, are all by the Tories classed as Liberals." The Dover Chronith speaks of the Tories in the fol lowing terms The conduct of the dominant Tory majority, in refusing to meet the Corn-law question fairly, we hold to be one of the most cowardly, mean, and skulking - subterfuges ever resorted to by any set of individuals bearing the character of rational men—gen tlemen is out of the question." The Scotsman says of the Queen's Speech :—" It boldly addresses itself to the great and paramount ques tions of the day, and to the critical embarrassment in which the nation is at present placed. There cannot be a doubt that it speaks the genuine sentiments of her Ma jesty, and that, almost for the first time in the recent his tory of Great Britain, the Crown entertains a large and lively sympathy with the wants and wishes of the people."

It appears that between one and two o'clock in the morning as the mad was proceeding to London, shortly after passing through Tonhridge-wells, the horses became restive, and set off at full speed. They had not proceeded far when they came to a turn in the road l ea di n g from Toubridge-wells into the Maidstone road, where, notwithstanding every attempt was made :by the coackman to keep them in the middle of the road, they ran the a coach against a post, upsetting it with great violence.

Circumstances alter cases, as the cat said when she jumped on the printer's intim AND att tiC clotition. " Who runs may react." FOREIGN. The most appalling acei&nts are constantly impedit the,progress of steam_navigation in the United States. To the sad list of disasters lately reported we have to add the destruction of the steam boat Erie by fire on the 9th of August, and the loss of one h un d re d an d seven ty lives. Of the unfortunate persons thus prematurely consigned to a watery grave, about one . hundred and forty were Swiss and German immigrants in pur,uit of f ree . ‘dc in and happines s i n th e ne.rr world, denied to them in Cm old. The property - destroyed is _estimated ut 300,000 dollars. The spot where the Erie was burnt in August 1841 witnessed the destruct:on by fire of the Washington in Jtine, IP3. The President of the United States has appointv(l t Hon. E. Everett American MiniSter at the Court London, in the room of . Mr. Stevenson, who is rocalie My. Everett, we understand, is not a slave-breeder, an after all that has taken place during the. residence of Mr Stevenson among us, we should be disposed to re and the appoiritmcnt of a slave-holder to the functions of an A m ba.s:Alor to the British Court as an act. of discourtesy to litrcis a most re4)ectable class of her Majesty's subjects, if not - to the GovernMent of this country.

M. de Bodisco, the Russian Minister atlVashingte who recently espoused an American wife, • is about to be recalled. Rumour states that he is to be sent tip Vienna, which we doubt, that post being always reserved for first-rate Russian diplomatists. Baron Marcella, the Austrian Minister at Washing ton, has also been recalled by his Court. From Lisbon we have news of the . 23d inst. The bread-taxers of Portugal are a set of as bard-hearted scoundrels as their :brother monopolists in any part of the world. Though bread is as dear in Lisbon as in London, a landowner in the Cortes brought forward 4 motion for preventing the importation of corn from the North to the South of . Portugal, with a view to prevent the introduction of corn from Spain, where bread is cheap and abundant. A Committee of Arts and Sci ences, to whom the motion was referred, reported against it ; but a Committee of landowners declared so strongly in favour of it, that it was supposed it would be carried. This is carrying out the principle of monopoly with a vengeance. We, expect next to hear of some Por tuguese legislator proposing a system of parochial Corn laws for the protection of the parochial agricultural in terests. . The French Journals of Friday and Saturday are oc cupied with the proceedings in Parliament. The Debats, ever " strong on the strongest side," attacks the Whigs. and praises the Conservatives, now that the former are out, and the latter in. One paragraph in the article is, however, worth quoting The opening of Parlia ment," says that Journal,' " has given the Queen of Eng land an opportunity for taking an hbnourable initi a tive i n expressing her satisfaction at the re-establishment of harmony between the leading Powers of Europe. All those who sincerely desire the peace of the world and the true interests of humanity, will rejoice with us at seeing friendly relations renewed between two nations, which are at the head of civilisation and liberty. The English Parliament replies negatively to many paragraphs of the Speech, but that which announces that France has again joined the family of European nations, was received with unanimous approbation, and the tribute of respect paid by the speakers in both Houses, to the wisdom and cou rage of the King of the French and his Government, are alike honourable to those who give and those who re ceive." The Presse, alluding to this paragraph in the Speech from the Throne, says :—" The language of the British Government is a just homage to the influence of France. Whilst France remained aloof, however united the other Cabinets might seem to be, no person could flatter him self that the peace of Europe would not be disturbed ; but now all chance of perturbation has disappeared, for we are in accord with. Europe. This is a truth which the English Government has solemnly recognised, and we must be thankful for the acknowledgment, for it has not been made withimt a great mortification of pride." The Courrier Francais ridicules the silence of Sir Robert Peel with regard to his policy, and says that the hunger of the people will compel him either to resign or to meet the bread-tax question. The National says :- 4 "The situation of Sir Robert Peel is full of Peril. He has to'cover the deficit of the revenue, to modify the Poor-laws, and to diminish the obstacles which in paralyzing commerce stifle produc tion, suspend labour, and enlarge the bleeding wound of misery, which has arrived at such a depth in the social body. He has to provide against the importation of corn for the winter, and for the exportation of the gold to pay for it. With this exportation of gold the value of specie will rise, the rate of discount •:ill be increased to from twelve to fifteen per cent., credit will be shaken, and disasters will accumulate. The resources of Eng land are undoubtedly great, and the national spirit full of energy ;, but the position of England is . no longer what it was ten years ago, and as the internal situation of England always controls the foreign policy, we may venture toprediet that time .•rory 'Ministry, weak at home, will cOntintic abroad that •restless and malevolent policy by which the Whig .Cabinet has. for • the, last thrce,years disturbed the world. The Siecle and the Quotidienne are equally hostile to Whigs and Tories. The Constitutionnel sees in the progress of events a breaking up of the now triumphant Tory party. It observes upon the debate :—" The Whigs will leave the Ministry stronger and with more influence. in the country during their administration. The ground upon which they have given battle is the best they hrd ever chosen, and the. best theme of opposition that could be defended is a good. system of finances, and the alleviation of the sufferings of the people. Sir Robert Peel does not reveal his plans, and the speeches which he made to the electors show the care . which he takes to elude th e difficul ties of his position. He is himself moderate and concilia ting, but he has to keep peace with the cum-cores of his party, whose votes have brouglA bins into office: These temporizations will last as long as possible, but a day will I arrive when the' old Tories will be tired of treading in the steps of the new Conservatives. In order that the business of Government May be carried on, it will be ne cessary to come to an understanding with the moderate party of the Opposition, and to submit to the conditiona which it may think proper to impose. Sir R. Peel will not,, we i►nagine, consent to expose himself to the retro grade experiments desired by the old Tories, and which would intidlibly lead to poliwal and social revolution." The state of the crops in the North of France is ex ceedingly satisfactory. The French have finally abandoned the hospital in the island of Del Rey (Minorca). The last of the sick are now at Toulon. Tile capitalists at Madrid were ready on the 22d inst. to accept the New Loan contract for sixty millions of reals. VUEZZC The Times :;tates that the speech of Sir Robert Peel, on Friday night, in the House of Commons, " afforded a happy augury, as well as a, distinct indication of the policy - las approaching ov ertl In en t."—Tli ere was certainly more than one distinct indication in the Right Hon. Baronet's speech ; but they were indications, not or a bold, liberal policy, but of a cold,. cautious expe diency. He will review, he says, the whole question of the Poor-law ; and he will not bind himself to the maintenance of the existing Corn- laws in all its details— language which, coming from such an adroit time-server as Sir Robert Peel, means nothing more than he will be guided by the chapter of accidents, and that if itshould become necessary for him to adopt a more liberal system of policy, he will not allow principle or constituency to stand in his way. In a word, we gather frem his speech that he is merely a political weathercock, who will turn, and turn,: and turn again, according to the shiftingS.' of public opinion. The MoncingPost sounds the praise of the Irish Tories in these decided term:, :—" rTheleading Conservatives in Ireland are moderate men, anxious'to obtain the good will of the whole body of the - people, though exceed . inglk opposed to agitating partisans, and coarse feroci o u s brawls Ts. Sir Robert Peel may find men, and we believe he will find 111C11 of the Conservative party in Ireland,. flit.) arc moderaTe, just, and even .‘ liberal,' in the best sense of the word."—Sir Robert Peel, we suspect, will be sadly puzzled to find Trish Tories of the character al luded to by our Contemporary. Where are they to come from ?" We have heard'of none such in Ireland, and We have great doubts of their existence, for Toryism in that excitable country always assumes its most obnox ious fol:rn. herald after commenting in the most high-flown rms in the transcendent merits of sir Robert Peers speech, goes On to obFerve •" With i Conservative Covermnent, we shall have great principles discussed . and acted upon, instead of the miserable ert.tchets of this or that school of free traders in moray, polities, religion, law, and commerce ! We shall have intelligible theories of Government laid down and illustratiA, instead of fatter schemes and party projects o ['crude audUntried legislation:" 'When the - Tories discUss an act upon great principles, then .-we will join with: our Contemporary in trumpeting their praises ; but till then, we dial' take leave 'to be ::imptiettl.. Tory principle—except it be the principle of sell-interest-4s a characteristic . feature we have yet to discover in the faction. Ifitlicrio--:at Last for the last twelve years—the Tories have been remarkable only for their flagrant inconsistencies, abandoning one after another every theory they held most material to good government. They have never marchtd in tl'e van of public, opinion, but have always been dragged along tike sullen slaves, at its chariot-wheels. They have now a majority in Parliament ; but they owe this, not to their own merits, not to their own fixed principles, but to the demerits of the Whigs. To talk, therefore; of the " great principles" of the Tdries, is the rankest absurdity. We quote the following from the - Chronicle :--" Sir Robert knowS' better than to state that he will maintain his own opinions in office. But, for all that, we know that his opinions must he consistent with the opinions of thoL;c who gave him his majority. The phrase that he will relinquish office the moment that he is not sup ported by the confidence of -th'e House Means merely that when lie can no longer stay in he will go out. It is the walking dOwn stairs to avoid being kicked down stairs." We agree with the Chronicle that for all Sir :Robert Peel's fine boast of independence, he must in all essential matters be at the mercy of his supporter. How can he be just to the Dissenters without offending the high Church party ? How can he bring forward a liberal scheme of education, suited to the character of the age, without provoking the fury of .the Episcopal Bench ? Suppgted by Monopolists, how can he knock the fetters IVXONEY-TRADE-001621ERCE. The cod-fishery of France annually employs GOO French ships and 13,000 men on the banks of New foundland. At Manchester - . some extensive sales were made last week in goods and yarns, though at 110 advance of price, while the gloom continues. At Leeds the woollen markets are much more active. At Bury trade is very dull and languid, and numbers of operatives want work. At Leicester the demand is improved, and a fair amount of business doing at low prices. The wool market at Bradford is also much better. AGRICULTURAL. In Cambridgeshire there has been joyous harvest weather for the cutting and ingathering of the crops. In Nottinghamshire harvest has commenced and the crops are good. Accounts indeed from all parts show that the crops have ripened kindly and well, and they will be at maturity within a week of the average of seasons. LAW AND POLXCE. The Italian named Girolotno Capella, convicted at the Liverpool Assizes of scalding his companion to death with boiling'gruel, was called up . for judgment on • Fri day. Lord Denman, in passing sentence, said it would have given him the greatest pleasure to have complied with the recommendation of the Jury for mercy had he thought it consistent with his public duty, but it was ne cessary that examples should be made when these hor rible crimes were committed. The only prayer, said his Lordship, which could be granted to the prisoner was his request that lie might have time to reconcile himself with Cod. The Learned Judge then passed sentence of death in the usual form. The interpreter explained to the prisoner as his Lordship proceeded. At the close he requested the interpreter to call on him the following day, and to get him a priest, to whom he might confess. At the Central Criminal Court, the trial of Richard, Langley, indicted for the murder of James-Dixon on the high seas, wa.-3 postponed until next syssions, On the plea of the prisoner that lie was an America,,, juul could not be tried in an English court.

A rat-trap of these dimensions is much wanted in the house of'Commons, where, if well baited with loaves and fishes, it would catch an astonishing number of To ries, who, just now, are quite ravenous from their long fast. - • We understand that the reason why so many of the more bighted Tories are opposed to a reduction of the timber duties is, an apprehension that it might possibly reduce the value of their own wooden brads.

The following is an extract of a letter received at the North and South American Coffee-house,dated New York, Aug: 14. " We have authentic intelligence from Washington on which we safely predict the veto of the President to the Bill whieh has passed both Houses of Congress, for the establishment of a National Bank, with branches in the several States. We place so much reliance on the high character of our infot mant, that we feel no hesitation in saying that no Bank Bill will become a law this Session. That several other measures which have been looked for with great anxiety will share the same fate, and that a breaking up of the Ilarrison Tyler Cabinet will be the climax of the extra Session, from which the Whig party expected so much. The Van Buren or democratic party are in high spirits, and confidently anticipate a resumption by their leading of the reins of power at no distant day.

We have had enough of State securities.
