CONGRESS OF PANAMA.

The Providence Journal of Monday contain, a well-
written article from Chili, on the subject of the Panama
Congress, and gives the views taken in thrt quarter in re-
gard to it. It appears that as late as the '2oth May the
Republic of Chili hail not appointed delegates to represent
it in the Congress, and !bat wlvices had been received that
the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata were strongly
opposed to the Congress. A variety of causes are assigned
fur the reluctance of these States to accede to the invita-
tion given to them to unite in the measure. Some of them
appear to exist in fears entertained that the States under
the influence of Bolivar, namely, Colombia, Guatitnala,
Peru, and Bolivia, would attain an ascendancy in the mea-
sures of the Congress, which would be injurious to the
prosperity and independence of the minority of the States,
and that European views would be preferred to an Ame-
rican policy. It is stated that suspicions were enter-
tained of Bolivar's views in originating the measure,
and feats that his unbounded popularity would enable him
to effect any object he might entertain ; and it was added,
that many had not forgotten his recommendation of an
!—reditary Senate in Colombia, and that if the Congress at
Panama should not become like that of Vienna or Verona,
the result of its measures might be a consolidation of the
Sates, the establishment of a Federative nation, and the
curtailment of State rights. They were waiting anxiously
for information of the course adopted by the United States
on the subject, and little doubts existed of their foil ming
the example of the elder Sister of the American Republics.
The above information was no: expected. If it be cor-
rect, the excellence of the course taken by the United
States will be more apparent. The presence of their Mi-
nisters in the Nall of Congress, even if merely " lookers-
on," will not he without its beneficial influence in checking
foreign or ambitious views, should they appear, on one side,
and removing groundless suspicions and undue jealousies
of State rights, on the other. They will carry with them
the lessons of experience, and affird the Congress sufficient
proofs that a bold and successful experiment has been mad;
in the establishment of a great, free, and well-balanced
Government, in spite of the predictions of flemago,:ues and
time-serving politicians ; and that the exercise of the same
wisdom anti forecast will be as successful in the South as it
has been in the North.

effect. These are two new inventions of that Journal; and the
note of Sir William (I'Al:eon, to threaten the Spanish Govern-
ment with a declaration of war from Great Britain, if the Portuguese
soldiers contintie to be receives in Spain, is probably as real as
the protcht of the Austrian Ambassador at Lisbon, which the
Constituthomet so long maintained, and which it has at length
given up. The news given by the Drapean Blanc, of two armies of
15,000 men formed in Spain, one by the name of the Army of

THE THIRD FOOT GUARDS.
His Royal Highness, Field Marshal the Duke of Gloucester, in-
spected yesterday morning, in Hyde Park, the 2tt Battalion of
the 34 Regiment of Foot tautodrt, of which he is Colonel.
His Royal Highness came upon the ground at nine o'clock, at.
tended by his Staff, and several General and other Officers, and was
received with a general salute.
be battalion then wheeled into open column,• and marched past
in Plow and quick time. This fine corps afterwards performed a
variety of movements and evolutions, according to 5114j0r-General
Sir H. Torrena's improved syatem, with ;crest stesdineos and pre.
cisioti. After having performed 23 manicurris, and tired 10 routoia,
the battalion advanced in line, and gave the general salute. The
Royal Duke then rode forward, and expressed to Colonel Bowater,
the Commanding Officer, leis unqualified approbation of the man-
ner In which the different evolutions wcr'c executed.
A detachment belonging to the East India Company's Service
have received orders to embark this morning, at Hilllng+gate, for

Detachn-.ents helonging to the 3d, 30th, 45th, and 54th Regi.

S7AIE OF TRADE.

MACCI.F.SFIEI.I).—It appears that there are now receiving
relief from the fond 2,719 families, consisting of 11,965
persona, whose average receipts and earnings, comprising
Parochial Relief, does not exceed the wretched pittance of
10d. per heal per week ! S:venteen poor rates were allowed
for the Township of Macclesfield, during the last year,
ending the 25th March, 1626. Since then twenty-two rates
have been granted. The greatest number of rates ever col-
lected here in one year was thirty-two; if an improvement
do not take place, we shall require at least seventy this year,
inasmuch as each successive rate yields leas than the pre-
vious one. Every day, for many weeks, we have had the
sickening exhibition in our market-place of ►ales under dis-
tress for rent ; and such sales ! We hope the improvements
in other places, and other manufactures, about Which we
hear so much, manifest themselves differently; if not, we
fear the representations are mere delusions.
BRADFORD.—On Thursday last rather more goods were
sold than usual, but no advance took place in prices.
HUDDERSFIELD.—The improvement in the woollen
trade has scarcely reached Huddersfield. Last Tuesday
was one of the worst markets ever known at that place.
When sales of goods are effected, which sometimes hap-
pens, the prices are ruinous to the manufacturer, and such
as nothing but uncontrollable necasity could induce him
to accept.
llawsau ay.—There is no improvement in trade here ;
shout sixty heads of families are still employed in break-
ling pebbles.
CARILISLE.—There is no alteration whatevet in the
trade connected with this district. The partial operations
-which have been experienced elsewhere, in consequence of
slight fluctuations, easy to be accounted for, have not, in the
slightest degree, affected the trade of Carlisle.

THE WEATHER-CROPS.

We had, on Monday night and the greater part of Tues-
day, a considerable quantity of rain, which must be of use
to the potato-fields and aftergrasa. The rain was accom-
panied with much wind, which continued yesterday, and
the heat of the weather is greatly diminished. Much of
the corn has been safely got in and stacked; but from what
we have seen and heard, it cannot be thought, with the
exception of wheat, even an average produce on the best
lands. Ohl oats are considered cheap at 15s. British ; the
new sells at IGs. to I 9s. A dearth of oatmeal must of
course, ensue, and, unless relieved by a supply of potatoes,
the poor, particularly those who are not fully employed,
must be greatly distressed. We know two fathers of fa-
milies, consisting moreover of 16 individuals together, who
receive as daily wages but 9,1. (there are very many such
near us), while the stone of potatoes comes to the famine
price of a shilling. Now a stone of potatoes is to each
family of eight, or even of five, but a mouthful ; and how,
with hut one labourer for them, they cal be able to pass
on to Spring, we arc at a loss to discover.—Curlow Morn-
' ing....nort.

The weather has unilergone a fortunate change since our
last publication. On Sunday night and yesterday we were
visited with a refreshing fall of rain, accompanied with a
strong breeze from the South. finder l'rovidence it will
be the means of reducing the exorbitant price of provi-
sions, and alleviating the wants of the poor, whose suffer-
ings, for some time past, have been of a natu►e calculated
to excite sympathy in every humane and tender heart.—
Clonmel Advertiser.

Reaping is now pretty general in this county ; the crops
this season, with the exception of wheat, are considerably
thinner, and the straw much shorter than usual, but the
grain is excellent in quality. In many instances it has
been found necessary to resort to pulling instead of reap-
ing, in consequence of the growth being so short and thin.
Though this county has suffered much from the long-con-
tinued drought, yet we can by no means consider the pros-
pect of the present season discouraging. The bay-harvest has
certainly failed—the produce this year not being one-fourth
of what it was last season. The potato crop has also suf-
fered severely, but we trust it may still materially recover;
some heavy showers having fallen, which will tend to
quicken vegetation.—Wesford Evening Post. ,
On Monday and Tuesday this city and neighbourhood
were visited with heavy and refreshing showers of rain.
A continuation of the fall may certainly he of service to
the late crop of potatoes, the grass lands, and the ve-
getables ; but at this late period of the season, it can be
of no possible advantage to the fields of corn, which are
now generally cutting all over the country—Limerick
Chronicle.
