ACCUMULATION, PROPERTY, CAPITAL, AND CREDIT. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The question has been raised by the ablest of men, " Whether society has sufered more through ignoranc e , in l eg i s l at i on, or from wi?ful and corrupt misrule , and we believe an answer may be given in favour of either of those propositions by examining the results in different countries. Are we, however, quite sure that a careful examination of the statute book of Eng land will afford ample proofs that selfish and corrupt legislation, as well as ignorance, have brought upon this country the evils we have had long to suffer, and which. we are now suffering. Before we decide the questivon, e ought t o i nqu i re i nto the principles of an Aristocratic and a l so o f a Democratic Government, to ascertain the springs of action in both these Govern ments, differing as they do so widely in principle and in results ; but that inquiry would lead us at present away from th e su bj ects stated at the head of this article, we will therefore only observe that, although in past times the pe o pl e o f E ngland have suffered more severely fromignoranc e than from selfishness, we believe that we are at present suffering more from the selfish, monopo lizing, and unchristian acts of the priviliged orders than from ignorance. We must, at the same time, allow that it is from ignorance of the multitude of the true principles of the British institutions, and from their short-sighted conduct in the corrupt exercise of those principles, that the aristocracy and priviliged few are able to oppress and fleece the many, as we now feel and witness in these kingdoms, by the melancholy re sults which we daily have before our eyes. We see by Parliamentary Reports that, in the garden of England, the county of Devon, for example, which may be called the land flowing with milk and honey, the mass of the labourers, on whom the produce of the soil depends, do not at this time earn, nor have they for the past three or four years earned, more than ss. a week for the single man, and 7s. and Bs. for the married man with a family. We also find in the rich and populous dis• tricts of Lancashire that men labour at the loom for 12 to 14 hours daily without getting more than the farming men get in Devon. In England, a country abounding in capital and industry beyond any other kingdom, and blessed with every thing calculated to make men comfortable and happy, we believe that scenes of domestic misery and suffering are to be met with more extensive and more severe than in any other country in Europe ; and it is, therefore, the duty of the Press to point out, if possible, the causes of these suf ferings in the hope of having a remedy applied. We shall be able to prove that the selfish, grasping, unjust, and unchristian conduct of the rich aristocracy of the land, is the chief cause of those miseries, which disgrace our country and the age we live in. But we must, at the same time, admit that we cannot expect to correct the corruption and misrule of the rich until the mass of the people are better informed than they are in many parts of their duty and in the principles by which their conduct ought to be regulated. We have, from time to time, witnessed, with great regret, attempts that have been made by that part of the Press which pre tends to be exclusively supported by, and directed to support the interests of the working classes, to decry the possession of capital, and to complain that ma chinery was injurious to the people. The spread of knowledge amongst the masses has, in a great degree, put an end to th e cry aga i nst machinery, and has satis fied every reflecting man that England, without ma chinery, and th e man if o ld advantages derived from it, would soon be the most wretched of countries. We hope that the cry against capital and capitalists will, in the same manner, be put down by the correction of reason—that th e b es t f r i en d to t h e work i ng man is capi tal ; and that it is owing to the great quantity of capital that England ranks so high in the scale of nations. We will not admit of the question so often raised by phi losophers, whether man is happier in the savage and wild state, with few wants and fewer means of satisfying them, than in the civilized condition in which we now live, artificial in our desires, and artificial in the means of satisfying those desires. We are in the state of civilized life, and it should be our duty, as men and Christians, to make the people as happy as possible in that artificial state. It cannot be doubted that the proper use of capital, and of machinery, must promote the prosperity and happiness of the people of this country, and we there fore are most anxious to remove the impression which exists in soma quarters that capitalists are men fol lowing out their own selfish views, regardless of the feelings and comforts of those who are employed by them. We fear that this erroneous belief has produced a feeling of and distrust between the workman and his master, which has been highly prejudicial to both masters and men. We are sorry to admit that there may be masters who do not act with that kind ness and consideration towards their men which on a moment's reflection they would find it their interest, as it is their duty, to do. But we must also allow that the conduct of the workmen in too many cases has greatly tended to produce that indifference in the masters of which the men complain. A better under standing by masters of the value, and of the attention due to their men, and by workmen of the respect due to their employers (and also a better knowledge of the principles of capital, which enables them to support their men), will, we hope, produce a better feeling in both masters and men, and convince them that each party has his duties to perform, and that neither party can do without the other. If there were no capitalists to maintain the workmen whilst manufactures were in progress, how could the workmen be supported in comfort, and with regular weekly or daily wages, as they now are ; and in the same way, if there were no workmen the capital of the employer would be of little value. Hence the prosperity and comfort of this country, and of every other manufacturing country, must depend on the profits of capital and the profits of labour being sufficiently liberal to repay the capitalist for the use of his capital, and the workman for the labour bestowed. We have been led to these remarks by the perusal of an address delivered before the .Mer cantile Library Association, in Boston, in the United States, on the 13th of September, 1839, by Mr. Edward Everetts, at the eighteenth anniversary of that Institution. In the mercantile profession, the advantages of such institutions are more obvious than in any other ; under their influences, the merchant, if he be not numbered among the princes of the earth, may become what is still loftier and better—the intelligent friend of social advancement, the benefactor of his race. We are persuaded that we cannot better instruct and gratify our readers than by transferring to our pages the greater portion of this admirable discourse. In this address Mr. Everett has done that for the science of political economy which its professors have too generally failed to do ; be has shown the direct, immediate, indispensable application of its principles to the ordinary business of life. It will be well for those who have been led to regard this science as unsettled in its principles, and unsatisfactory in its results, to study the illustration which is here given of the im portance of those principles, in relation equally to the individual and to the society of which he is a member. Many of them may be surprised to find that what they have been in the habit of regarding as fraught with danger, or deserving only of reproach, is but the seem ing evil from which good may be educed. In the beginning of the address the author declares its object to be the discussion of a few of the elementary topics connected with commerce ; in reference to which there are some prevailing errors, and on which it is im portant to form correct judgments. These topics are, Accumulation, Property, Capital, and Credit ; and they are successively treated in a manner which would be spoiled by an attempt at abbreviation. Certain we are, that no reader will complain of the copiousness of our extracts : " I. Some attempts have been made of late years to institute a comparison between what have been called the producing and the accumulating classes, to the dis advantage of the latter. This view I regard as en tirely erroneous. Accumulation is as necessary to far ther production, as production is to accumulation ; and especially is accumulation the basis of commerce. If every man produced, from day to day, just so much as was needed for the day's consumption, there would of course be nothing to exchange ; in other words, there would be no commerce. Such a state of things implies the absence of all civilization. Some degree of accu mulation was the dictate of the earliest necessity ; the instinctive struggle of man to protect himself from the elements and from want. He soon found—such is the exuberance of nature, such the activity of her produc tive powers, and such the rapid development of human skill—that a vast deal more might be accumulated than was needed for bare subsistence. " This, however, alone, did not create commerce. If all men accumulated equally and accumulated the same things, there would still be no exchanges. But it soon appeared, in the progress of social man, that no two individuals had precisely the same tastes, powers, and skill. One excelled in one pursuit, one in another. One was more expert as a huntsman, another as a fisherman ; and all found that, by making a business of some one o c cupation, they attained a higher degree of e xcellence than was practicable, while each one en deavoured to do every thing for himself. With this discovery, commerce began. The Indian who has made two bows, or dressed two hear-skins, exchanges one of them for a bundle of dri e d fi s h or a pair of snow-shoes. These exchanges between individuals extend to com munities. The tribes on the sea-shore exchange the products of their fishing for the game or the horses of the plains and hills. Each barters what it has in ex cess for that which it cannot so well produce itself, and which its neighbours possess in abundance. As individuals differ in their capacities, countries differ in LONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1839.

THE QUEEN'S MARRIAGE.-Flying rumours begin to ripen into certainty as to the marriage of the Queen ; and it seems that Victoria will not, like the former maiden Sovereign, be teazed with repeated ap plications from Parliament to enter the matrimonial circle. Prince Albert is a guest at the Palace, which is likely to be his home ; and as our fair readers, at least, may be curious to know something of the form and bearing of the man who can win the hand of a Queen, we may add, that he is described as a " fine noble looking fellow, with blue eyes, hair and whiskers rather sandy, stature tall ; of a cheerful disposition, most unaffected in his manners, and he speaks English well, but with something of a foreign accent." EDINBURGH, WEDNESDAY.—Sir John Camp bell arrived in town yesterday afternoon, and on the same , evening din e d w i t h the Lord Advocate.

THE LATE DUKE OF BEDFORD It is our painful duty to announce the death of his Grace the Duke of Bedford, which took place at the Doune of Rothiemurchus, in this county, on the morn ing of Sunday the 20th instant, at half-past one o'clock, a.m. On the 17th instant, while in the act of dressing, his Grace was seized with a fit of apoplexy. The most prompt assistance was rendered by Dr. Cumming, the Duke's resident physician, who was soon after a s . sisted by Dr. Murray of Kingussie. Dr, Nicol of In verness reached the Donne in the evening, but, the malady was of too serious a character to be overcome by the united exertions of these gentlemen, and his Grace expired on Sunday morning, having been apparently unconscious throughout the whole interval, excepting the first few hours. The Duchese, with the most devoted solicitude, watched over the closing scene, having never left the room from the period of the fatal attack. Immediately after this melancholy event the whole of the distinguished guests at the Donna departed, leaving the Duke's son-in-law, the Marquis of Abercorn, his Lady, and the other members of the family alone with the Duchess. It is intended, we believe, to convey his Grace's re mains to his residence in Belgrave-square, London, whence they will probably be removed for intermeat to Woburn, in Bedfordshire. The late Duke of Bedford was, in many respects, a pat_ tern for the English Nobility. Frank, generous, liberal_ minded, simple and manly in his taste and habits, ami able and condescending in the relations of domestic life' and princely in his munificence and charities. He was the fast friend of the people,. and ev er f oremost in shield ing them from oppression, inameliorating their condition, or advancing their improvement. •H e never forgot that he was a descendant of that Lord Russell, who sealed with his blood his attachment to those principles of constitutional liberty, which his descendants, in hap. pier times, and at a calme r p e riod, have f e lt it t h e i r g l ory a generous p a t ron t le s ge an t d o s m c a ie in n t e a e i s n ,.a silteeadwyafsriend to agr i cultnre, o an f d th p e ri a v r i and the promoter of every useful i mprovement. Among his private pursuits was a taste fur botany and horti culture, in which he excelled. For some years, the impaired health of' his Grace compelled him to with draw in a great measure from active life, but his sym pathy with every passing event, involving the honour or the interests of the country, was unbroken and en /f 7a i rri ve i r lY ;zes s Courier. en tire, and the current of his benevolence was never for a moment impeded.

The extent to which this exchange of products is carried in highly civilized countries is truly wonderful. There are probably few individuals in this assembly who took their morning's meal this day, without the use of articles brought from almost every part of the world. The table on which it was served was made of mahogany, from a tree which grew on the Spanish Main or one of the West India islands, and it was covered with a table-cloth from St. Petersburg or Archangel. The tea was from China ; the coffee from Jamaica ; the sugar from the West India Islands ; the silver spoons from Mexico or Peru ; the cups and saucers from England. Each of these articles was purchased by an exchange of other pro ducts—the growth of our own or foreign countries— collected and distributed by a succession of voyages, often to the farthest corners of the globe. Without cultivating a rood of ground, we taste the richest fruits of every soil. Without stirring from our fireside, we collect on our tables the growth of every region. In the midst of winter, we are served with fruits that ripened in a tropical sun ; and struggling monsters are dragged from the depths of the Pacific Ocean to i lighten our dwellings. "As all commerce rests upon accumulation, so the accumulation of every individual is made by the ex changes of commerce to benefit every other. Until he exchanges it, it is of no actual value to him. The tiller of a hundred fields can eat no more, the proprietor of a cloth factory can wear no more, and the owner of a coal mine can sit by no hotter a fire than his neighbours. He oust exchange his grain, his cloth, and his coal for some articles of their production, or for money, which is the representative of all other articles, before his accumulation is of service to him. The system is one of mutual accommodation. No uvan can promote his own interest without promoting that of others. So the minutest excess or defect in the supply of any one article of human want, produces an effect— though often a trifling or an insensible one—ron the exchanges of all other articles. In this way Providence furnishes to the countless millions of the human family, through an interminable succession of exchanges, the supply of their diversified and innumerable wants. " 11. In order to carry on this system of exchanges it is necessary that the articles accumulated should be safe in the bands of their owners. The laws of so ciety for the protection of property were founded upon the early and instinctive observation of this truth. It was perceived, in the dawn of civilization, that the only way in which man could elevate himself from barba rism, and maintain his elevation, was by being secured in the possession of that which he had saved from daily consumption, this being his resource for a time of sick ness, for old age, and for the wants of those dependent upon him, as well as the fund out of which, by a system of mutually beneficial exchanges, each could contribute to the supply of the wants of his fellow men. To strike at the principle which protects his earnings or his acquisitions—to destroy the assurance that the field which he has enclosed and planted in his youth will re main for the support of his advanced years—that the portion of its fruits whichhe does not need for immediate consumption will remain a safe deposit, under the pro tection of the public peace—is to destroy the life-spring of civilization. The men who denounce accumulation • are barbarians. It places man below the condition of most of the native tribes in the wilds of America. No man will voluntarily sow that another may reap. You may place a man in a paradise of plenty on this con dition, but its abundance will ripen and decay un heeded. At this moment, the fairest regions of the earth—Sicily, Turkey, Africa, the loveliest and most fertile portions of the East, the regions that, in ancient times, after feeding their own numerous and mighty cities, nourished Rome and her armies—are occupied by oppressed and needy races, whom all the smiles of heaven and the bounties of the earth cannot tempt to strike a spade into the soil, farther than is requisite for a scanty supply of necessary food, because person and property arc not protected. On the contrary, establish the principle that property is safe, that a man is secure in the possession of his accumulated earnings, and he creates a paradise on a barren heath ; he builds up his dykes against the ocean, and cultivates a field be- neath the level of its waves, and exposes his life fear lessly in sickly jungles and among ferocious savages. Establish the principle that his property is his own, and he seems almost willing to sport with its safety. He will trust it all in a single vessel, and stand calmly by while she unmoors for a voyage to distant lands. He knows that the protection of his country accom panies it, and guards it as vigilantly, in the loneliest island of the South Sea as though it were locked in his coffers at home. He is not afraid to send it out on the ocean, for he knows that the law of nations will protect it there. He sleeps quietly, though all that he has is borne upon six inches of plank on the bosom of the deep waters ; for even if the tempest should bury it in the deep, he has assured himself against rein by the agency of those institutions (Insurance Companies) which modern civilization has devised for the purpose of averaging the losses of individuals upon the masa." We shall resume the subject. TREASURE HUNTING EXTRA ORDINARY. The pension board of Chelsea Hospital have lately been made acquainted with a singularly ingenious fraud which has been practised under the following circuit. stances :—A man passing under the name of Beresford, but whose real name is John Conway, a pensioner of the Hospital, who had served under his Grace the Duke of Wellington at the battles of Vittoria and Waterloo, in the latter of which he lost one of his hands, has been the principal actor in this fraud, in co-operation with a person named Middleton, who is understood to be very respectably connected. The dupe is a Mr. Lang ley, a retired tradesman, now staying in London, but formerly resident in Liverpool, where by assiduity and perseverance in his business for a number of years he accumulated a very comfortable independence. About four months ago Mr. Langley, intending to make a tour of England for the benefit of the impaired health of his wife, was proceeding, accompanied by her, by the Holy head mail to Chester, and fell in with Beresford, who was a fellow-passenger, but who was until that time an entire stranger. Beresford possessed considerable con versational powers, and beguiled the tediousness of the journey by relating his exploits in arms, and hinted that had he but a few hundred pounds he could realize a for tune, as he and a comrade had secreted amongst some ruins in Vittoria a treasure, consisting of gold coin, Spanish dollars, and jewellery, to the amount of upwards of 10,0001. His comrade, he said, was shot on the battle field of Vittoria, and the secret was confined to him alone. Mr. Langley readily took the bait, and after many skilful misrepresentations on the part of Beresford, it was ultimately agreed that the three, ac companied by Middleton, whom Beresford had intro duced to his dupes as a person whose services were indispensably necessary, from his knowledge of conti nental stratagems, to secure the safe transit of the trea sure to this country, should forthwith proceed to Vit toria, Mr. Langley undertaking to advance the neces sary expenses, and in the meantime feasting the cheats in a most liberal manner. The projected tour of England was abandoned for that of a visit to the Continent, and they proceeded direct to Falmouth, where they embarked for Lisbon, and arrived, after a pleasant voyage. Here Beresford played upon the timidity of Mr. Langley and his wife by representing that the country was in such an unsettled state as to render their proceeding any further extremely dangerous, and it was finally agreed upon that Mr. and Mrs. Langley should return to Falmouth, while Beresford and his companion prosecuted the ri T o h r i d s promised attainment of the object of their journey, the former having induced Mr. Langley to place in his hands the sum of 1501. to defray expenses. Beresford then pur chased fire-arms, and made every show of prepara tion for the journey, and Mr. and Mrs. Langley re traced their e t o join a y them ba a k t to the earliest Falmouth, i r he did in about two months , and stated that they bad been only partially succe ssful, as the y bad be en obliged w whe r e opportunity. to use great caution to prevent observation, but that the greater portion of the treasure had been lodged in the hands of a c onfidential friend of his, who was con nected with the Spanish Embassy, who promised to bring it over to England ; and he at the time produced a re, ceipt purporting to be from that party, guaranteeing to de liver the treasure in England on the payment of three hun dred pounds. Beresford displayed several gold rings and a splendid gold chain, which he asserted was part of the spoil ; and, after a time, asked for an advance of fifty pounds more, which was refused by Mr. Langley, who began to entertain suspicions that all was not right. Beresford expressed himself indignant that his request was not complied with, and withdrew. Middleton shortly afterwards exposed to Mr. Langley the manner in which he had been duped. He was induced to do this in consequence of Beresford cheating him of his share. He stated that, after the departure of Mr. and . Mrs. Langley, neither himself nor Beresford proceeded any further, but lived in a princely style, and that Be resford often drank in derision the toast of " Langley and Vittoria." The rings, &c., had been bought by Berea ford for the sake of aiding the deception, and the chain he wore had been got in exchange for an elegant and valuable one presented to him by Mr. Langley. It turns out that this is the third similar tr ick Beresford has [vac. tised. Mr. Langley estimates his own loss in this trea sure-seeking affair to be up wards of 500/. HIGHWAY ROBBERY. --011 Thursday night, be tween 11 and 12, as Mr. Joseph Banner,. a gentleman residinm in Churc h-buildin g s, Clapham Common, was returning h om e along the Poynder - road, Clapham New Park, he was attacked by two men, who stopped him, and with horrid imprecations demanded his money. for Banner being a powerful man, struggled with. them for some time, but they eventually overpowered him, and forcibly took from his pocket his pocket-book, containing a bill for .50/. and a 101. Bank of England note, with which they escaped across the park towards Brixton. . ~ _.~ ~, `~ ~-~~ --s Just Published, ACKERMANN'S FORGET ME NOT, a Christmas, New Year's, and Birthday Present, by eminent living Poets and Novelists, for 1840.
