" I'm of a scoffing spleen, I love to flout, At hypocrites; therefore it row must out." First Satyre of Flaccus. THE state (ever since the accidental upset) — of insensibility and parallyzat ion—arising from " stag nated blood" thwarting the air-tubes of the body structure— haa at length caused the death of Mr. Sams, the bookseller. This sad incident is important to the Public, in connexion with the present absurd treatment of like cases—in practice diametrically opposed to Nature's laws. Hence! in she event of a like catastrophe—from sudden siatocit to the mcrvous system or to the bony fabric of man Notice— This gentleman's " life" in question might have been saved, had his miscalled " medical attenoants," GOTHEIE, KEATE, &c., hare :giecei him that am which an All-wise Providence points out , fur au immediate rectification, of any wrong to our fibrous `enriltruction.

Why should the agented mountebank-charlatans have refased a vital remedy for accelerating the circulation of a new earial blood—a remedy for refining the blood, by change of breath, and thereby causing by INFLATION within, a general evaporation "fume-osity" of any morbid virous matter from all the oetlet pores of the skin, by an internal " trans'piration ?"

It would not be worth while noticing the Earl of RIPON'S self-contradictions, were it not that we trace w ith more certainty the principles of a system, when their consequences are brunted out by a weak, than witen they are carefully elaborated, guarded, and mystified by a cunning man. The Cabinet are about to perpetrate a series of new and mischievous enact mint:,, and they have assigned, to justify these enactments, a great variety of contradictory reasons. Neither in Parliament, nor in the press, is there that homogenity of argument which dis tinguishes a sincere conviction, and even their own supporters acknowledge themselves, by the variety of contradictory reasons, to be stunned and be wildered. Of the general contradictions which perrade the Tory r.rguments, we shall quote the Earl of IhroN's observations, which would otherwise be wholly un worthy of notice, as a specinlen. He began his speech on Monday evening by admitting that the system of free trade was " kiwi, considerate, and charitable ;" but he objected - to, this system that it would make England dependent for corn on foreign countries. He then went on to show at considerable lenth, and with - much statistical information, that there were no foreign countries from which we could get any great supply of corn. He would not have a free trade in corn, therefOre, because that would reduce us to a state of dependence on foreign nations for corn, and next, because we could not • get any great quantity from them. If we could - get no great quantity of corn from them 'WC 001411 not possibly become dependent on them for a large quantity, and the Noble Earl, therefore, com pletely answered the only objection he made to adopt ing a system which he called " kind, considerate, and charitable," and which has the higher recommenda tion of being just. If any man in common life had, with this sort of Irish dexterity, sawed off the head of his own argument, and let himself flop down in the mire, he would have been laughed at as an egregious ass ; but Lord RIPON'S contradictions passed in the House of Peers for wisdom. The Duke of WELLINGTON, to take a far higher example, began his speech on Tuesday evening by declaring that " there could be no doubt, as an abstract proposition, that no duty ought to be laid on the food of the people. Now an abstract proposition means a proposition divested of all party and factious colouring of either time or place. It is the essence of truth, deduced from all experience and purified from all passion ; vet the Duke of WELLINGTON cannot act on such a solemn principle, because Viscount MEL uoURNE thought that there should be some protec tion to agriculture. He avowedly prefers his own imagining s to deductions of long experience as the basis of law. For him this proposition is true, and it is not true. He says it is undoubtedly true, but at the same time ha shows, from a variety of supposi tions, that it cannot be true, and he concludes that by his law the truth must be overruled. Turning from the Lords to the Commons, we find Lord STANLEY, in the early part of Tuesday even ing, recommenaling all " emigrants to place them selves under the Government agents," and be guided by them; and we find Sir ROBERT PEEL, in the lat ter part of the evening, recommending all people to rely on their better discretion. He delivered this very important, but, to the whole Tory scheme, most con tradictory truth : I have not the slightest doubt that there are frauds committed in manufactures—l have not the least doubt of it ; and so long as the world exists, there will be fraud, there will be dishonesty, and no laws which you can pass will be sufficient to prevent it.—(Hear, hear.) The security you have against fraud is in free compe tition, and in the preference which, in the long run, the honest dealer -sill have over the fraudulent. Precautions of this kind, when taken against fraud, very often defeat themselves. The party who buys the article relaxes in that natural vigilance and circumspection which he ought always to exercise. --(Hear, hear.) When I first went to Ireland I found that there had been frauds in the butter trade. A butter -taster was then appointed • not a firkin was all owe d to o out until it ba.l first 'been tasted, and there was then a stamp placed upon it to show that it was genuine.—(Laughter.) People then bought I the butter, taking its quality for granted, because it had been submitted to the butter-taster. The consequence was, that frauds were practised to a greater extent than they had ever been practised before. because there was a general absence of that caution and vigilance which had been previously exercised.—(Hear, hear.) Depend upon it the natural interest of the purchaser is the great secu rity against fraud, and another security is that integrity and honesty all in the long run, both with respect to the home consumer and the foreign consumer, ultimately sell the cheapest article, and secure the greatest profit. There is enough in that paragraph to upset not only Tory policy, but all Government. If the laws of the most skilful legislator cannot prevent fraud, why make laws at all, seeing that they are not good, but evil per se, and only defensible because they do pre vent frauds. It is no benefit' to society to hang or imprison a man if it do not prevent crimes. Sir ROBERT PEEL has a better mode of preventing fraud than laws—" free competition," but at fnis time he is framing and forcing through Parlia ment laws to prevent free competition in grain, and, therefore, to encourage fraud. Theu he gives an admirable example, and illustrates it very happily by his own knowledge—not by a theory—of the vast in jury which is done to the people by substituting pro tecting laws for their own edscretion and for general competition, yet, he acts in the teeth of his own prin ciple. Lord STANLEY would have the people rely on the Government. Sir R. PEEL, with a true Radical spirit, tells them to rely on themselves. The:inan who would not substitute a butter-taster fo: individual caution, who tells the House of Com:;nons to rely on the " natural interest of the purchaser," is not the man to carry out, with sincerity and consistency, the protecting and restrictive system he has taken in hand. After Sir R. PEEL had dP:iivered this true and im portant sentence he said i : — Now I cannot conce;_ve anything so bad as the conduct of the master, who, - in violation of the law, abuses the power which he tas over his workmen, by compelling those workmen. to buy of him inferior articles at the full price. I 13.,;i eve you will find that that practice exists ; and I F.st say that I cannot conceive a more unwar rantai'de abuse of power. );tre differ from Sir R. PEEL, in being able to con- I ceive something worse than this conduct. The truck master only commits a petty, however detestable fraud, in common with many thousands; but the Minister of a great nation, who derceives all classes, who is double-tongued, who cheats the public both by his silence and his words, who sacri fices mankind to his party purposes, who invents fallacies to disguise the oppression of which he is only the instrument, whose acts are con trary to his own convictions, who, in support of the in,ustice which places him a its head, denies in Par -1 liament the dictates of his head and the feelings of his heart, who, knowing better, consents to be the means, for the poor bribe of office, of inflicting injury and degradation on the people, who while he expatiates on the advantages of competition, makes himself the tool of monopolists, is a far worse wan than the truck-master. And now let us conclude by a remark on the system which is upheld by such men and such con tradictions. That a great system of delusion should be maintained for years when its foundations are laid in the spiritual hopes and fears of man, when it is shrouded in mystery and carefully guarded from in quiry, when an immense army of men have an in terest in maintaining it, and have vast funds at stake, which they use for the purpose of promoting delusion, and which they will lose when the delusion is at an end, is consonant to experience in every age of the world ; but that a system of delusion should be long maintained, which refers wholly and exclusively to the gross interests of this world, which courts inquiry, and cannot escape investigation, which is surrounded by sharp critics, eager to detect and exaggerate all its vices, which is daily felt in the business and pockets of men,—that such a system should be long maintained after its admirers have lifted its foundations, and loosened all its holdfasts, is not consonant to experience, and should it take place will be a new and memorable lesson for man kind. Prophecies of revolution realise themselves. The conception and the utterance of such a thought, bhows that the reverence is at an end on which alone human institutions repose in safety. When we find such language in common use—when we see that the system, as now carried on, is a great mass of falsehood and delusion, and when we see it daily exposed to a fierce investigation, we join with others in saying that its end cannot be far off. In the midst of life we are in death, and the Tories will find that in the midst of victory they will be everlastingly crushed by their own errors and contradictions. It will be seen by our extract from the Manchester Guardian that the increased activity in the Cotton Market of Liverpool, which was obviously mere spe culation, and perhaps diseased speculation, has had no influence on the Manchester Markets. Our advises from that quarter, we regret to say, come more and more gloomy. Trade, far from improving, becomes worse, and less and less wages are paid, we are told, from week to week. Sir ROBERT PEEL'S tariff, whatever good it may ultimately do, and we hope but little from it, has hitherto, by adding uncertainty to stagnation, only in creased distress. It has unsettled those trades which were doing something, and has not put into activity those which were before lying still. The Income-tax, however advantageous or even necessary to the Government, cann et, it is quite clear, relieve the people ; and it may, perhaps, by pressing heavily on the struggling traders, be that straw which breaks the overburdened camel's back. Let them receive relief, therefore, before they have to bear additional pressure. If. Sir RO!IERT PEEL, and his great majority, have a spark cf patriotism left in ther whole composition, if they be not the selfish incarnation of party spirit, they should forego, for the present, their plan of in creasing the revenue of the Government and the bur dens of the people, and bend their exertions to relieve the public distress. He says, the tariff will have that effect. His Corn-law is nearly through the House of Lords. The Income-tax, though a part of his whole scheme, is not so closely connected with the Corn law as the tariff, and it would seem better for the public, therefore, and more consistent with principle, that he should hasten to pass the tariff, setting at rest commercial inquietude, than that he should hasten to hurry on the Income-tax. His majority is commanding, and he can have no fear that his Income-tax Bill should fail. In fact, to pass the tariff would soften the opposition to the In come-tax, and ultimately hasten its success. More over, as the tax is to be levied from April, it will be of no consequence, now that the public is adver tised of the fact, whether the Bill receive the Royal Assent on the 20th of June or the 20th of May, while it is, on Sir ROBERT PEEL'S showing, and the showing of his friends, the city merchants, of much consequence, that the tariff should be, as soon as possible, carried through Parliament. For these reasons, we trust that the Members of the House of Commons will press on Sir R. PEEL the propriety of proceeding first and immediately with the tariff; and we trust that he—leaving the discus sions on the Income-tax Bill in Committee till after the tariff has been finally disposed of—will proceed at once to re-fasten the trade he has universally cast adrift. The Corsican bandit Orsini was taken on the Ist instant. He was met near Campile by a voltigeur, who seized him. Orsini defended himself and made a desperate resistance, but, seeing four men coming up, he relinquished the contest, and fled. He was, however, so exhausted by the struggle, that he was overtaken, and secured at the moment he was on the point of plunging int" a ravine, where it would have almost been hopeless to follow him. A RUNAWAY ENGINE.—A circumstance occurred at the Yatton station on the Bristol and Exeter Railway, on Saturday last, which fortunately ended without any serious consequences. The first morning dovrn-train, which is both a passengers' and goods' train, having stopped at the above sta tion, was detached from the engine for the purpose of placing on another luggage waggon, when, no doubt very i m p ru d ent l y, the engineers left their situations, and by some unforeseen cause the steam got up, and off the engine started without control. As may be imagined, the greatest consternation pre vailed down the line at seeing the engine passing at a most furious rate, without ary one on it ; but fortunately, about a mile before it reached Bridgewater, the steam was exhausted, and there it stopped. Immediately on its being known at the Bristol station, an express engine, with a number of hands, was sent off, but happily their services were not required. —lfeene's Bath Journal. While an itinerant company were, a few clays ago, performing the Tour de Able at Sermaize, in the Marne, at the point when Buridan in his dungeon inquires of Margaret of Burgundy what she had done w►th his two children, the actress who appeared in the character of the Princess sud denly seated herself on the bed of the prisoner, and uttered piercing cries, having been taken in labour of her seventh child. Buridan received her in his arms ; Orsini :et down the curtain, and dismissed the audience, entreating their indulgence. A midwife, who was one of the audience, hurried round to render her asistance to the distressed Margaret, who was noon lately delivered of a fine boy. THE SUN, LONDON, 11-IUngDAV lIITNINCT.

ARRIVAL '3F THE COLUMBIA.-LATER FROM THE UNITED STATES. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY MORNING. We have received by the Columbia, Captain Judkins, arrived at this port, this morning early, New York papers to the 31st, and Boston to the Ist, her day of sailing. She left Halifax on the 4th. The Columbia was longer on her voyage out than usual, having experienced very rough weather ; and in a squall on the 18th, she broke her paddle-shaft when in lat. 44.33, lon. 54.04, and having to use canvass for the rest of the voyage, reached Halifax on the 25th, after a voyage of 20 days 15 hours. She did not pro ceed to Boston, but her mails were forwarded by the Unicorn. There was no opportunity of prorbia l; pairing the damage during her stay ab Halifax, but her commaflder Capt. Judking, old not hesitate to take her to sea again with only one paddle in action, in which state she started from Halifax on the 4th, and has made the voyage under this great disadvantage in 15i days. In consequence of her late arrival out, and the damage she had sustained, few passengers went to Boston to meet her, presuming that the packet of the Ist, from New York, would anticipate her. The IVarspite, 46 days from England, with Lord Ash burton on board, was telegraphed as below New York on Friday, at 5 o'clock, P.M. She sailed from Portsmouth on the 16th of February, The Briti,h Consurhad despatched a steamer to tow her up to the ci . v, most important political news is the invasion of texas by 14,000 Mexicans, under General Arista, who had taken St. Antonia and Goliad. The movement had taken the Texians by' surprise, but they were preparing for a spirited resistance. The New York Express has the following observations:— TIM INVASION OF TEXAS. The sudden and secret onset made upon Texas, under the orders of Santa Anna, indicates great ability on his part, and a great confidence ge success. Houston seems certain of repelling the invadtrs, and of ultimatelyplant ing the Texian flag in the City of Mexico. The advance of the Mexicans will soon meet about 2,000 Texians, and by the next arrival we shall probably have the result of the conflict. The news has startled the South Western part of the United States as much as if the United States itself had been invaded. The close connexion of sons and fathers, brothers and sisters, existing between the emigrants to Texas and the relations they have left at home, imparts to them the liveliest interest in the contest. It will be almost impossible for our Government to prevent active and energetic interference, for hundreds and hundreds would prefer expatriation to resting still. If the Texian forces in the end march on towards Mexico, it will be im possible to restrain citizens of the United States from rushing- into this field of novel enterprise and ambition. The New Orleans Bee, indeed, calls out bud for the friends of Texas to rally. " The Texas army," it says, " should have its standard decorated with a miniature of the cathedral in the centre of the City of Mexico, so that every man would see it the last thing in the evening and the first thin g in th e morning, to keep the end of his exertions co n ti nua lly i n his mind , for not until the Texian banner is planted in the public square before the Palace of Santa Anna should the war be terminated." Preceding the arrival of this intelligence, a corre spondence between General Santa Anna and General James Hamilton had been published, in which the latter holds out the olive branch, as he considered, in the shape of a bribe. It will be seen that, in form and substance, General Hamilton invites General Santa Anna to sell out the Mexican claims upon Texas for 5,000,000 dols., to be put in the Mexican Treasury, and a bonus of 200,000 dols. for himself. The proposition is marked " con fidential." but is rejected with scorn and disdain, and often with eloquence. If Santa Anna is in earnest, a prolonged war with Texas is inevitable. We rejoice in the eloquent indignation with which Santa Anna hurls back the proposition to sell himself for the 200,000 dols. General Hamilton, who, by the way, seems, from the ampjitude of his projects and negotio. • Lions, rather a citizen of the human race, than of the United States, may, perhaps, blush a little on reading it. This reply of Santa Anna brought forth a smart letter from General Hamilton in reply, breathing a most war like defiance. President Tyler had sent two messages to Congress, the first relating to the applicants for office was unim portant, the second is thus described in the New York Express correspondence :—" The important matter in Congress to-day has been a communicaticn from the President of the United States in reference to the finan cial 'condition of thocountry, and the remedies necessary to rescue the Government from existing embarrassments. The reading was listened to with earnest attention by all present, and its various recommendations excited quite a sensation with all those who approved of the sen timents embodied in the report. He is in favour of the imposition of duties equal to the entire expenditure of the Government, and expects that new expenditures will be made fur the defences of the Government. ' Ile sus tains the protective policy, and calls for such discrimi nating duties as will secure the interests of the domestic labour of the country, and, he expects that, to accom plish this, it will be necessary to advance beyond the 20 per cen% of the Compromise Act, or the 20 per cent. pro vision of the Bill to distribute the proceeds from the sales of the public lands. What is yet more important, he is for pledging the proceeds from the sales of the Public Domain to the pay ment of the interest of the public debt. The Distribu tion Bill he regards as suspending itself by the 20 per cent. proviso, and it being necessary to go beyond the 20 per cent, proviso to ensure either revenue or protec tion, he calls for the land fund as a pledge for the pay ment of the public debt. The late Administration be queathed to the present a debt now amounting to four teen millions of dollars. This amount, i n consequence of the revenue laws, is daily increasing, and something must be done to secure payment, in order to sustain the public faith. A lean of fifteen millions, in conclusion, is recommended to pay the public debt, and a pledge of the Public Domain as security for payment. The President points out the existing difficulties and the remedies for them in a frank and manly manner. He leaves the responsibility of action with Coegress, where it must ever rest, and declares that the people will not hold the Government guiltless, if it neglects to act in the present emergency of our public affairs. (Correspondence of the Journal of Commerce.) The following is the latest report of Congress . MR. CLAY'S RESOLUTION PASSED. WASHINGTON, MARCIt 30.-- Mr Clay's resolutions were taken up, and a long debate took place on the amendments of Mr. Rives for the suspension of the Dis tribution Law. The amendments were rejected, 21 to 22. Mr. Preston then moved that the second, third, fourth, and fifth of Mr. Clay's resolutions be referred to the Committee on Finance, together with Mr. Wright's amendment there. This was agreed to. Mr. Clay's seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth resolu tions were also referredlo appropriate Committees. . The first and sixth of Mr. Clay's resolutions were adopted, one declaring that the General Government should have - an adequate revenue to meet its ordinary expenses in time of peace ; and the other declaring that it was the duty of the Government to abolish all useless institutions and offices, to curtail all unnecessary ex penses, and practice rigid economy. This is the end of all this affair. The reference of the resolutions to the Committees, which had full power from the several subjects Lefinv, was merely to get rid of them. It was not desirable to the majority of the Senate to commit themselves in advance, and without full in formation, on to many topics. They were, at the same time, willing to dispose of the propositions in a manner respectful to Mr. Clay. New York had been visited by a most destructive fire. (From the New York _Express, April 1.) About half-past three yesterday afternoon an alarm of fire was given in a blacksmith's shop, near the corner of Christie and Delancy-streets. The wind was blowing a gale, and the fire soon made a clean sweep through For syth, and then across Forsyth more than half-way to Eldridge-street in front, and quite through the rear, two blocks on the left side of Christie -street, half way to Broome, and on the Aft side of Forsyth down to Broome, and then on the right side of Eldridge to Broome. Two brick buildings in Eldridge-street, Nos. 92 and 94, across Broome, were also entirely consumed. The number of houses destroyed cannot fall short of one hundred, and were tenanted chiefly by that portion of the community who can least afford to bear the loss. Hundreds of families have lost their all by this calamity. The buildings were chiefly of wood, and of comparatively small value. ANOTHER GREAT FlRE.—Another fire broke out about four o'clock in the rear of 524, Pearl-street, in a bakery, and owing to the absence of a ll t h e eng i nes up town, the rear of five buildings were in flames before anything could be done towards checking it. The fire soon spread through to Anthony-street on one side and Elm on the other, destroying some thirty buildings of all kinds. The rears of No. 524 to 530 on Pearl -street, were much damaged, together with the rear of No. 39, Elm, and the buildings adjoining, indeed the grocery store, corner of Elm and Anthony, was about the only one of the block uninjured. The buildings were old and dilapidated, and occupied chiefly by Irish families, who are now hopeless, and without a shelter, without the charity of our citizens is extended to them. By these two great fires some three hundred families, nearly all poor people, havii been turned out of doors, most of them with the destruction, or great damage of their furniture and property. The upper parts of the city were in a high state of alarm ;- but so high was the wind, that thousands of persons in the lower wards never knew there was a fire. STILL ANOTHER.—A fire broke out in the two story building, corner of Maiden-lane and Nassau -street, last night at half-past twelve, but was get under without much trouble. 'rho part, No. 35, was occupied by Messrs. Gay and Johnson, as a dry goods store, and No. 351, by F. Fraser, as a comb store. The dry goods were but little injured. • The stock in the comb store was injured by water to a considerable extent. 'lle night was bitter cold, the ground freezing, and much suffering was undoubtedly endured. The following is an extract from the log of the Columbia, reeeived at the South American Coffee House : WEDNESDAY, 13 TH.—Wind, S.S.W., lat. 47 16, 10D. 29 30 ; distance run, 260 miles ; a.m., fresh breezes and cloudy ; at 10, saw a ship on fire ; at 12, passed her a ,hort distance to windward; hove to her, and got the boats ready. • Appeared to be a large barque of 400 to 500 tons burden ; the fore and main-mast and bowsprit gone ; the mizen-mast standing, but no mizen-top-mast ; appeared to be within about two or three feet of the water; remained by her until 1 30 a.m. ; burnt blue ights and rockets to from 10 o'clock.

A great excitement was caused iiy the mail dffik;efs dn board refusing to deliver the math to . the Spanish mail officers. When they attempted to take them he drew his sword. A company of twenty-five soldiers was imme diately sent on board, with fixed bayonets, and ordered to use them if the least resistance was offered, and the offending officer was ant on shore under a guard. The Commander of the steamer, meanwhile, refused to meddle in the affair alleging that he had nothing to do with the mails. They were in special charge of the mail officer, who was put on board with them. The pas sengers, or any one belonging to th e b oa t, h ave no t b een allowed to land, and as yet we know not how the affair will turn. It nuns to be a disjointed concern, and I fear rkeed difficulty between the two Governments. NEW YORK MONEY MARKET—APRIL 1.

By the arrival of the steamer Neptune at New Orleans, we have received the Galveston Gazette and Advertiser to the 21st ult., eight days later than before received. The greatest spirit and enthusiasm prevailed through out the Texan Republic. Austin had not been taken, and the Mexicans had plundered and evacuated San Antonio. The Texas troops were in pursuit of the Mexicans, and it was confidently expected that the latter would be com pletely routed. - It appears that the Mexican invading army was much smaller than reported. It gives the Texans a better chance to retaliate. The general enthusiasm of the community was so great that it extended to the fair sex, and several of the ladies of Galveston were industriously engaged in moulding bullets, and making cartridges for th use of the army. • There had been contributed by the citizens of Galves ton about 12,000 dollars in provisions, munitions of war, and money. (From the Galveston Gazette, March 17, 1842.) CITY OF HOUSTON, I.ll.kueu 17, 1842.—The news by express from Austin up to the 13th inst , is that the enemy have evacuated San Antonio, after having plun dered the place. They were laden down with baggage, and march slowly. Col. Hays is harrassing them en their march. They only - march about eight miles each day. The troops froth Austin and thosa on the frontier are marching to overtake and beat them. War shall now be waved against Mexico,. nor will we lay our arms aside until we have secured the recognition of our independence. Until then I will never rest satis fied, nor will the people of Texas. We invoke the God of Armies.—Your friend, SAM. HOUSTON. COURT CIRCULAR.

SCENE IN A Cumtoi.—ln the quoad saerr parish church of Thornhill, 10 miles from Stirling a disgraceful scene happened at the close of the service on Sabbath last. A pa ' rishioner appeared to get his child baptised, every thing being prepared for the performance of the ceremony. When the time, however, arrived, the minister deliberately lifted the boson with the water, an d h an ded it to the beadle to take it away. He then t oo k up the towe l an d threw it down upon the floor, and proceeded to pronounce the benediction. When this was done, the man, who had been so unceremoniously treated, requested the c ongregation to rema i n, as h e h a d some thi ng to say. He then t urne d to the minister, an d d eman d e d o f hi m w h y he had not baptised his child. No answer. He, then said, " I not. call upon you for conversation upon this subject during the week, and were you not satisfied with that conver sation ? And did I not leave you with the impression that you were satisfied? Is not the appearance of my wife and child here, and the preparations made by the kirk-officers, sufficient proof that you understood this duty was to be performed ? I then ask again, why you refuse to baptise the child !" To all these interrogations there was still no answer. The man then, his bosom boiling with indignation, looked round upon the people as if imploring their sympathy, and then turning to the minister, " I have only to say, Sir, that you are a sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal." - That our readers may understand the Cause of this state of things, the following explanatien is necessary:—The minister and a large body of his parishioners are at open war with each other about the choice of the beadle, so much so, that there are now two of these officials, the one being the beadle of the congregation, and the other that of the minister, and that it was t h e former functionary who placed th e boson and towel.

Morning 39 minutes after 101 Evening 15 minutes after II p. §-ant / 1 t it tont SUN OFFICE Three o'Clock. The news from the United States is of treat impor tance, although not unexpected. President TYLER'S Message to Congress, recommending a loan of twenty millions of dollars to meet theincreasingembarrassments of the Treasury, has excited a great deal of interest. He informs:Congress that, after exhausting all the re sources of the current year, there will be a deficit of four teen millions of dollars. One of the measures which he reconimends for increasing the revenue is to impose ad ditional import duties, framed with a view to the protec tion of American manufactures. It is lamentable to see a great young nation like the United States adopting the worn-out protective system of feudal Europe. Nor are the proposed duties to be of trifling amount. In some in stances, which Congress are left to select, an increase of import duty beyond 20 per cent. is recommended. Such an increase of duty will be tantamount to a prohibition, and consequently nothing will go into the treasury. To ' hope to derive revenue from duties which limit consump tion, is sheer stupidity. The deficiency in the revenue of the United States is not great, but as it is permanent, the PRESIDENT deems it advisable to provide a permanent fund to meet it. He enumerates the causes which have recently depressed -American credit in the Stock Market of the world. Among these he enumerates the unsettled condition of the banks in several States—the vast amount of foreign debt contracted during a period of wild speculation—and above all, the dishonest and immoral doctrine of repu- . diation of contracts solemnly entered into by several of the States composing the Federal Union. The PRESIDENT condemns the promulgation of such a doctrine, as being calculated to alarm other nations, and affix a stigma .upon the character of the Federal Go vernment. That any impression which it may have made upon the minds of capitalists may not operate to the detriment of the proposed loan, the PRESIDENT recom mends the pledging of the proceeds of the land sales to defray the interest. "The most vigilant money-dealer," observes the PRESIDENT, " will readily perceive, that not only will his interest be secure on such a pledge, but that a debt of eighteen or twenty millions of dollars, would, by the surplus of sales over and above the pay ment of interest, be extinguished within any reasonable time fixed for its resumption." This is consolatory news for the money-lenders. The following extract from the Message of the PRESIDENT we recommend to the especial notice of the Cabinets of Lisbon and Madrid : The first great want of the country, that without answering which all attempts at bettering the present condition of things will prove fruitless, is a complete restoration of the credit and finances of the Federal Government. The source and foundation of all credit is in the confidence which the Government in spires; and kist in proportion as that confidence shall be shaken or diminished, will be the distrust among all classes of the com munity, and the derangement and demoralisation in every branch of business and all the interests of the country. Keep up the standard of good faith and punctuality in the operations of the General Government, and all partial irregularities and disorders will be rectified by the influence of its example; but suffer that standard to be debased or disturbed, and it is impos sible to foresee to what a degree of degradation and confusion all financial interests, public and private, may sink. In such a country as this, the representatives of the people have only to wilt it, and the public credit_will be as high as it ever was. There has been a►:other row in Congress about the Creole affair. Mr. GIDDINGS, an able and influential Member . astonished the slave-holders and their friends by moving the following series of resolutions, which he afterwards withdrew, in obedience to the wish of the House : RESOLUTIONS ON THE CREOLE CASE. That prior to the adoption of the Federal t onstitut ion each of the several States composing this Union exercised full anti exclusive jurisdiction over the subject of slavery within its own territory, and possessed full power to continue or abolish it at pleasure. That by adopting the Constitution no part of the aforesaid Powers were delegated to the Federal Govin riment, but were reserved by and still pertain to each of the several States. That, by the Bth section of the first article of the Constitu tion, each of the several States surrender to the Federal Go vernment all jurisdiction over the subjects of commerce and navigation upon the high seas. 1 hat slavery being an abridgment of the natural rights of man, can exist only b; force of positive municipal law, and is necessarily confined to the territorial jurisdiction of the power creating it. . . Thai.' when a ship belonging to the citizens of any State of this Union leaves the waters and territory of such State, and enters upon the high seas, the persons on board crate to be subject to the slave laws of such State, and thenceforth are governed in their relations to each other by, and are amenable to, the laws of the United States. That when the brig Creole, en her late passage for New Or leans, left the territorial jurisdiction of Virginia, the slave laws of that State ceased to have jurisdiction over the persons on board said brig, and such persons became amenable only to the laws of the United States. That the persons on board said ship, in resuming their na tural rights of personal liberty, violated no law of the United States, incurred no legal penalty, and are justly liable to no pu nishment. That all attempts to regain possession of or to re-enslave said persoi.s are unauthorised by the Constitution or laws of the United States, and are i►:cornet:ble with our national honour. That all attempts to exert. our national influence in favour, of the coastwise slave trade, or to place this nation in the atti tude of maintaining a " commerce in human beings," are sub versive of the rights and injurious to the feelings and the in terests of the free States, are unauthorised by the Constitution, and prejudicial to our national character. When these resolutions were withdrawn, a Mr. BATTS, one of the Members for Virginia, moved the following vote of censure : Whereas, the Hon. Joshua R. Giddings, the member from the sixteenth Congressional district of the State of Ohio, has this clay presented to this House a series of resolutions, touch ing the most important interests connected with a large portion of the Union, now a subject of negotiation between the United States and Great Britain, of the most delicate nature, the result of which may eventually involve those nations, and perhaps the whole civilised world, in a war: and, whereas, the duty of every good citizen, and particularly the duty of every selected agent and representative of the people, should discountenance all efforts to create excitement, dissatisfaction, and division among the people of the United States at such a time and under such circumstances, which is the only effect to be accomplished by the intn dnction of sentiments before the legislative bridy of the country hostile to the grounds as sumed by the high functionary having charge of this important and delicate trust ; and whereas mutiny and murder are therein justified and approved in terms shocking to all sense of law order, arid humanity ; therefore Resolved—That the House hold the conduct of the said member as altogether unwarranted and unwarrantable, and de serving the severe condemnation of the people of this country, and of this body in particular. After a disgraceful squabble of two days, this resolu tion was carried by a majority of 125 votes to 96. Mr. GIDDINGS then rose, took leave of his friends indivi dually, and retired. The venerable ex-President ADAMS was deeply affected, and some of Mr. GIDDINGS' politi cal friends shed tears as he quitted the Hall. He sent his resignation by letter to the Speaker. " Mr. GID DINGS," say the 'Washington Correspondent of the New York Commercial Advertiser, 44 is a singularly mild, af fable, modest, retiring person—a man of unassuming manners, of unobtrusive character, and remarkably gen tle and quiet in his way of urging his opinions upon those whom he would convince." A living author has observed that " the most timid men in appearance do the boldest things," and perhaps there are not five men in Congress who would have had the moral courage to bring in Mr. GIDDINGS' resolutions. By that daring movement he tore the veil it om the gang of Congress conspirators who, under the pretence of vindicating the national honour, only sought to plunge England and the United States in a war, to uphold slavery. Notices have been given for the insertion of many additional clauses in the Railways Bill in Committee ; among others the three proposed by Mr. HARDY, to the effect that carriages with passengers shall be so placed, that the first of them shall be separated from the tender by two or more carriages without any passengers ; that in no case shall two engines be used at the same time in drawing a train ; and that carriages with passengers shall not be propelled by having the engine in the rear. These regulations, we are satisfied, would have a must beneficial result. They would form a protection to passengers, and not interfere injuriously with the profits or management of the Company. Every plan for rendering travelling more secure gives additional value to the line ; and the Directors would, therefore, consult their own interests by adopting regulations that could in any way accomplish such a desirable result. The great falling off in the receipts of the Brighton, the Great Western, and, indeed, all other railroads, after fatal accidents, is the best proof of this statement. 'With a little more caution and foresight, many thousand pounds might have been saved ; and, what is still more, the Directors and Superintendents would have escaped the pain and odium incurred by being the cause, how ever unintentionally, of such a melancholy loss of human life. It is hardly necessary, therefore, to say that we cor dially approve of the suggestions made by the Member for Bradford. But what is to be said of the wild propo sition of the successor of Sir ANDREW AGNEW, Mr. PLUMPTRE, to put a stop to all travelling by railroads on Sunday, except in cases of charity or necessity? lie should be answered according to his folly, and when his clause is rejected, another should be proposed awlcarried by acclamation, that it be imperative on all Rat/ay Companies to run at least two trains each way on Sun days. On many lines there is now actually no other means of conveyance, and as this has been the result of the new system, the public should not suffer inconve nience either from the caprice of Directors, or the med 'cluing interference of these babbatarians. The people of Scotland, with all their regard fur the observance of ! Sunday, now admit the necessity of running a certain number of trains before and after Church service. Sir ANDREW AGNEW in that country is left alone in his glory. At the last meeting of the Glasgow and Edinburgh Railway Company, he appeared with the intention of renewing his motion on the subject, but he was compelled to admit that his friends had changed their opinions, and did not think that the subject should be taken up on that occasion. This is highly creditable to the people of Glasgow. There is no news of any political interest in the French 3Gltrnals received this morning, with the ex ception of the following from Conitantinople:— A letter from Constantinople, published by the Leipsig Allgemeine Zeitung, r(3lates a curious event, of which no men tion is made in the letters received by the last Levant Mail. "It had hitherto been tit. cusi.rn," says the journal, " for the Persian Ambassador to the Sultan t. 9 have his board and lodging in an hotel. The same was the case with the Turkish Ambassador at Teheran." Very lately the Turkish Ambassador, has not ben well re ceived at Teheran, and the Court of Persia has refused to give him his board and lodging. The Divan has in consequergee used reprisals, the Persian having announced this circumstance` to his Court, the latter recalled him, and sent in his stead a Consul-General, who is a Christian, a Georgian, and conse quently a Russian subject. This nomination has greatly alarmed the Porte and the British Ambassador, for this Per sian Consul will be under the protection of the Russian Am bassador, conformably to the desire of the Shah. Peop!e ask now, whether England can put up with this, since it is very evident from this fact, that Persia considers the Emperor of Russia as its lord paramount, and consequently that the Shah is wholly dependent on the Czar. This check is the more un pleasant to England, as the English troops have been obliged to retreat from Affghanist an. A letter from Oran 7th inst. states that the la'e campaign of Major-General de Lamoriciere, had been highly successful. He left Mascara with only four days' provisions, and contrived for twenty-two days to live at the cost of the enemy. He captured 1,700 head of cattle, and made 500 prisoners, among whom was Berkan, Chief Aga of the regular troops of Abd-el- Kader.-111oniteur Parisien. BOURSE—PAnis, TUESDAY, APRIL 1.9.

THE BIRRBECK TESTIMONIAL.We understand that Lord John Russell, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Earl Fitzwilliam, Lord Dudley Stuart,.lord Alonteagle, Mr. Hume, and Mr. Milner Gibson, are expected to take part in the proceedings of the meeting, which is to be held on Monday, to receive the Report of the Committee for commemorating, by some testimonial, the eminent ser vices to mankind of the late Dr. Birkbeck. The object con templated is to endow the London University with a Pro fessorship of Machinery And Manufactures, to be called the Birkbeck Professorship. Whether that be the wisest plan of commemorating his worth—whether its name may not soon be forgotten--.whether it be not possible that such a Professorship may sink into a sinecure, we offer no opinion ; but we sincerely wish that whatever be done may stimulate other men !.0 labour for the benefit of the many, as did the illustrioti: man whose virtues are to bo honoured and recorded. Royal Highness the Duke of .Sussex, though not person:!llv able to attend, will give to the object of the meeting all that support he is ever ready to lend to the cause human improvement.

Money is now so abundant that it is a favour to take it at one per cent. It will be seen from the American President's Message to Congress, received by the Columbia, that the financial difficul ties of the United States are at length fully acknowledged. It is now some months since Government drafts were protested, and the amount thus still unpaid is fully three million dollars, in addition to the twenty millions of debt alluded to by Sir. Tyler. According to some accounts by this arrival, the States are completely bankrupt, the current expenses being not less than twenty-eight millions annually, including the in terest on twenty-four millions of debt, while the revenue de rivable under the Compromise Act to come into operation in July next, will not exceed ten millions : the total national debt will be, it is estimated, at the end of 1842, thirty-two bearing an interest of two million three hundred thousand dollars annually. The American papers have accounts of the invasion of Texas by the Mexicans, which are evidently much exaggerated. The following appear more probably to be correct :—" According to letters from Tampico, an expedition consisting of 400 or 500 men, with 300 choice dragoons, was to leave San Antonio at the end of February. It was supposed that this force would be able to conquer Bexar, notwithstanding it was expected tho Texans would make a strong resistance, on account of the large quan tity f.sf merchandise in the town. In New Leon 2,000 men were organised to operate against Texas, besides cavalry.

The C'sronicle says,—" 'Me profligate's choice—a :rhos t life and a merry ones--may be the motto of the faded spiels. (lows or Mr. 'Ferrand's senatorial career. His faction has do no with him, and done fOr him. Like some of the first invented cmnW he was a great gun for one explosion of noise and sin DU' I now is to be spiked, and turned to baser uses. Ins long" threatened charges, which were to have demolished the . Anti-. Corn-law League, to have ,exhibited the real cause of a de'-`- r e dining trade in the frauds of the manufacturers , and to as for the working classes their rights and interests, have all ten' porated in a withdrawn motion .and a tirade against totally" shops." The following is from the Post.: —" The vulgar clamour about ' deception,' which certain of tlse Whigs are endeavour- '-' ing to raise against the present Government, amounts, upon examination, to an indirect confession rst hastiness and error or the part of those who bring the accusation. The Duke ° Wellington's demand for the how, when, a tal where, or in wig words, the allowed deception by the Government was prac. tised, has met with no answer. He has des , ied the charge ' the most direct manner, and in the same ma nner challeng the accusers to br;:ig forward the evidence l oon which ti Jei rely. But they have nothing of the kind to ,tiring forw: 5 1 d! Their rejoinder, for so far, has been not only an a e mission thA they cannot substantiate the charge, but a withwither awal the" charge." The Herald makes the following just and forcible relnsi_lr2 on the subject of the Income-tax :—" In this day's ./re,7,, will be found a full abstract of the principal provisions Of tP , - / Income-tax Bill. Those provisions are, to say the least them, fearfully inquisitorial, even though they are modified ; severity compared with those contained in former Acts. 11 necessarily hasty consideration we heYe been able to bestow o them re7ives all our anxiety to see the oontents of Schedule f., greatly modified. To screw out the same rate of duties frcg n income derived from acquired property and from inee n3( proceeding from labour, industry, and actively-eraploe capital, is unjust, and when viewed in connection with the m ii • quirks which commissioners, assessors, , and inspectors ", have a right to make into the private affairs of mercha n ', tradesmen, and professional people, it will constitute a per r ,: e nent grievance which must ultimately end tnger the essistel:),„ of the Conservative Government. An e. fort will surelY 3 made in the House of Commons to modify Schedule D. , it Rohcrt Peel will, if he be wise, yield en this point O r , little gentle pressure from without. It is sciarcely possible read the provisions of the Bill without a .shudder; yet P‘i. people whom it will affect are fully prepared ti s make any I or sacrifice which their rulers demand; but it I s never Vrte ; political to demand a sacrifice which involves la great pril et ' c injustice." We quote the following from the Times :—P" The Gover b r l ; ment, in the person of Sir James Graham, has viecided:tbstbti first of Mr. Ferrand's inquiries is unwise and impractica e.. but has consented to a Committee for inquiring :into thierri,: tions, evasions, and defects of the present law aga jest the truca system of payments. - We earnestly hope that Mr. FerraPd due be able to press this inquiry with the stringency n to those poor people whose cause he advocates. ins acrliw-av -ecE have as yet but begun. He must be prepared to L — of • against him all the ingenuity, arrogance, and perse lera-sotts alarme: self-interest. He muss be prepared to 'ge e ` hen s from reluctant or intimidated witnesses, to correct mist 4 , P re , sions, dispel mystifications, expose egnivocations. (lett 'ct falsehood. To make an effective speech is one thing - -,t ° , 1 c f a r duct a prolonged inquiry is another, and one which u more severely tax his powers, and test his ability to ;LI t i h e a .
