COMMItTICIAL T:;; ITY WITH ENGLOOSID.—The National intelli r,earee, a few days since, undertook to set the Oldie ophdon TOtt on the subject of the Com mercial Treaty, lately concluded at London, by Messrs. Gallatin and Clay.. -Some of the federal parer.; had presutned to infer, because the demo crot ie Journals were so silent on the Treaty, that conditions of it were notsuch as to meet the ap probationof the Government. But therditors of the latelf4rencer, in order to put down at mot all these nuriaises,say,-that "the Treatycompletely corres ponds with the views of the executive," and states that ".the views of the Government on the topics 1..0tt brayed by such aTreat yhaveireen published tothe o%corld, and are as well known as the rejection of an illcomploe Treaty, formerly negotiated." This is 4...m04t. flattering presage for the commerce of our 'calvary. tinder Mr. Jay's Treaty, the commerce of the United States exhibited a state of unrival led pro+ority; and -the Treaty that wits negoci 7ated bv Mooroe and Pinkney, which Mr. Jeffer son f( i jected, it was believed by many, had it been ratified, would have ittforded to the , country a stare of equal 'prosperity ; but, in the C4tionercial Treaty lately concluded, if the COurt Paper is to be credited, we possess the quintessence of all the advantages embraced by Mr. Jay's Treaty, as Aveli as by Monroe and Pinkney's, which Mr. Jetfersonrejected, without any of their oltjection able properties.

The Settlement was exceedingly healthy, and not withstanding a long prevalence of drought menac ing a failure of the crops, continued to enjoy plenty and prosperity, chiefly through means of the Guyer 4iilr'S judicious administration. The backsettle tnent were,however, much infested with deserters, caller: in the colony Brush gangees, who, sheltered by the difficult nature of the count ry,tlaily ;commit-- ted atrocious murders on the unwary traveller.

'CONSTADT alld Co. sugar-re filters, of IVell-street, Well Close-saquare, "hick was attended with the most fatal consequences.--.- A variety of reports were in circulation as to the causes of this shocking catastrophe , but the foil lowing may he depended upon to be as correct a statement as could be itscerlaincd, in the midst of a scone equally confused end distressing :—lt ap veal that a new process hies lately beta diSCOTt.'. ed 'for the quick refinement of sugar by means of steaur [fled Messrs. CollStadt, under the direction of Mr Hague, the Engineer, had constructed a new steam boiler, worked by what is called a pres sure engine .of about six horse power, the boiler holding about 2000 gallons. To this was attach;- ed all the necessary apparatuiof tubes, valves, exc. and the engineer had determined upon tryiug the effect Of the whole yesterday moulting. 'Die. fire was accordingly laid, and the engine put into play. At 10 o'clock, Mr. Constadt expre-se*his fears that the boiler would be over heated, and the valves become overloaded with steam ; and, in consequence, he and Mr. Hague went to inspect it more closely. Scarcely, however, had they reached the works, when a general explosion took place, carrying, in the awful crash, titter destruction to the concern, and closing, in the heap of ruins, the bodies of more than 2U pc:'sons. 13y three o'clock in the afP.ernooo, nine of these unhappy beings were dragged from the ruins, dreadfully lacerated, and conveyed to the London Hospital, where the utmost attention was paid to them, and every thing wits provided which. sur gical skill and humanity could suggest for their succour or consolation. At a late hour in the evening, five dead bodies were also takeu from the ruins—among these was the son of Mr. Spear, one of the partners of the house. The remaiuder of the sufferers were worknieo employed in the concern, many of whom - have left large families. The friends and relatives of these persons were assembled round the premises, and by their cries and lamentatinus rendered the scene truly heart reading. Not a vestige of this extensive establishment was left standing, an I the party wall of the ad joining warehouse was completely destroyed,. while the interior still - threatened destruction.'

Charles Ferdinand,' the father, was onepf e Alte most -amiable and dignified Princes of his time. He was the particular favourite of Frederick the Second. He displayed the greatest valour in the field during the seven years' war, when by his daringness and skill, he often gained important actions with very small means. his fine figure, his wit, and delicate observance of circumstances, dtstinguished lilut above all the German PrinceS of his time. He succeeded to the Government of a country of no great extent, oppressed with Court ekpen diture and debts. Ile dedicated himself at the same Able to the Prussian army; and he took part also in the politics.of Prussia. His merits, however, aka wise ruler of his own paternal do - Minions is least known. Here he was in;mitahle. • It was remarkable, that in his own State he should have refused to indulge his fondness for a numerous and brilliant army : of all the lesser Prioces he maintained the fewest troops. The care nearest his heart was to lighten, in• every way, the burdens of his people. The expeosive Opera was abolished, the Court Establishment placed on the simplest footing, intriguing fa vourites banished, and order and economy intro duced in the right place. The Duke inquired mi nutely into every thing—he was always accessible to time distressed—he had a singular memory, and knew the history of a very great number of his subjects.-- 7 -He willingly conversed with his peo ple ; he sought opportunities of allowing the lower orders to communicate with him; all ‘vere known to him, but he left every man at full berty in his operations ; fur very different front so many other petty Princes, he never attempted to intermeddie in affairs which ought,always to be left perfectly free. The State debts were soon honestly discharged, the prosperity of his State increased, the taxes which rose in all other States were (a singular fact in all times) , actuaflydi minished in his.—His memory is held among all classes of Brunswickers, in the highest affection. In every village of-the country he is the subject on which the people fondly dwell. • Frederick William, the son of Charles Ferdi nand, distinguished himself in two events,. ti the last of which he fell with glory. When the dependence of Europe was sealed by time peace of 1809, the Duke of Brunswick Was on the Bohemian frontiers, in the middle of sub jugated Germany. Disdaining, though it was in his power, to remain subject to the enemy, he undertook the passage which seemed hardy pos sible, tbreugh a number of hostile bands, every one of Which was superior to his own, till lie reached the sen, on which he did nut possess a single boat. The adventure became a great at chievemeut, from the prodigious efforts made, and the valour displayed in so many rencounters, the skill in countettnarching to escape, the dexterity in obtaining vessels, and the good fortune with which so diffielitt MI undertaking was crowned. - The evening before his death the Duke of Bruns wick and Wellington were at a Bail .at Brussels. The Duke, whose whole mind was occupied by the awfulness of the crisis, was often absent—he listened and heard a distant cannonatling communicated the circumstance, and expressed himself afraid of a surprise. Wellington did ;sot entertain any such belief, but thought that' it was a saint - mina on time arrival of the King of Prussia at his army. Brunswick repeated his apprehen sions several titnes. He requested urgently' to be permitted to march out immediately with a corps, by tray of guarding against danger. This was conceded, and he was allowed to take with him his Brunstvickers and 2000 Saxons. He immediately began his march, a considerable time before mid night, allowed his troops to rest and march by turns, and advanced four German miles. He fell in all at once with a very large army of French destined to fall on Wellington. He had the good fortune • to transmit immediate intelligence to Wel lington, who availed himself of the precionkhours. The devoted valour with which the Duke and his warriors for eight long Louts occupied the French to allow time for the assembling together of the army—the obstinacy with which he threw himself with his small and wearied band in the way of the • hostile army—the loss of nearly three thousand men on time part of time I3ronswickers—the two sev4re wounds which the Duke allowed to be bound up, and the three slighter wounds which be disregarded—his never leaving the fight, but advancing always attain to the front, and though enfeebled at last from loss of blood, his - calling out perpetually to his people to fight for their country, till a new wound laid his breast open, and stretched him on the field ;—these circum stances always constitute one of time proudest subjects of history.--4lonour to the sacred ashes of the Son of Henry the Lion, and of his Father ! • in the character of the Duke the military incli nation predominated. The number of troops which he nutiotained and seemed to wish to con tinue, was touch too great for a country of a quar ter of a million of inhabitants; though in this new and unexpected danger the circumstance lies !teen pirticularly useful. Front the ardentdisPo sition of the Duke, his precipitate zeal, and his Want of proper knowledge of civil affairs, ,he al lowed himself at first to be influenced by . persons whose inesures, if they had not at lengtk been put a stop to, were in a fair way of depriving-him o f the love of his subjects. When the Duke found his mistake, he listened to wiser council, ,asztti things were every day taking a better train, wben he was called to act a part its the late 'events. J. G. , • . . It hai been the practice for the last fortnight to steal the - benches in the Parks, Several have .been taken away front the Mall in St.:..lnmtis:s -nark, and front the Walk in the Green-park ; the !litter have not been re-placed.
