ANCLO-AMERICAN PARTY.

• Otifteadets will recollect that, on the 12th and
13th of last August; we published an article from
the ilkintrAal- Herald, which distinctly charged
Very Yntinent persons in this country with lending
trr ish money. to the American Government, by
• which means that vile faction which has obtained
She ascendancy in the councils ,of the United
States were the better enabled to carry on the war
• ,
against Great Britain. ,As this did not appear to
Us, as Conductors of an independent and patriotic
Journal, to be a business to palter with, we
boldly published the names of such of the persons
implicated -as had come to• our knoadedge, and .
thus afforded them, 'an opportunity- of publicly
wiping off the stain which was secretly destroying
their characters. Of this opportunity, it will also
be recollected, the most respectable house of. Bs,
RING promptly and honourably avaled them-
selves, and a letter from the principal individual
of that Firm, inserted at hii request in THE SUN
(16th August). hot only distinctly disclaimehav-
int; negociated any loans with the enealy's Go-
vernment since the commencement of the war,
but further stated, that so guarded had his House
been in their conduct, and so cautious of in any
way promoting the interests of the hostile Go-
vernment, that they had refused to transact busi-
ness with some of the new American Stock sent
to-theni -for sale, lest by disposing of it (as would
obviously he the case), they should aid our adver-
saries in giving their funds circulation in Europe.
Satisfied- as we were, and as the Public must
have been, by this explicit contradiction and dis-
claimer, the matter has since rested in silence—
certainly not requiring to be broken, in so far as
the parties are concerned to whom wg have al-
luded. ,Nevertheless, as we continue to be as
firmly convinced• as we then expressed ourselves
to be, that there is in this country an American
Yarty, with British names and titles, but with
ankee hearts and objects, which party it would
be well for us to have uncloaked and disrobed, we
have no hesitasion in re-publishing, from the same
paper which before furnished us with materials,
the following statement which appeared in its
number for Saturday, Nov. 6. We hope and trust
this new statement will help us forward to same
elucidation of;the subject, and that at length we
may procure a clue, by the aid of which we shall
be able to unravel all the windings of political or
commercial artifice in which it is involved, and trace
to its source an evil pregnant, as we have seen
and felt, wlth the worst of consequences to these
realms. The Montreal Editor, after copying front
THE SUN our remarks of the 13th August, and •
the paragraph_ front The Times, which we adopted
as-expressive of our own sentiments, thus comments
upon them :

We feel much pleasure, if not pride, in giving
place- to the temarkS of THE SON rind Times,
(London Papers). upon - our statement respecting
the American War Loan of 16,000,000 dollais—
not because it maybe thought our penetration.or
information was better than our contemporaries;
. but because rho respectable and irreproachable
Editors-took the subject up in a manner which,
its importance required. The Times challenges
certain men to purge themselves of a foul accusa-
tion, which circumstances reproach them with,
and implies • that nothing but a disavowal, sup-
ported by the most unequivocal proof, can screen
• them frinn public ignominy and execration. Tan
SUN is more eloquent, more pointed, and more ge-
neral in the comment, and insinuates that Minis-
ters knew something correlative to the 'matter.—
We hope the wound will, with two such sharp in-
, struments as the two Journals alluded to, be soon
probed tattle quick, to the end that the innocent
may be distinguished from the guilty. There has al-
. ways been rather too much credit attached to
London intormatiOn upon general topics, which
run through the channels of diurnal papers ; but
in what is laid before us, there is so much gravity!
and so much sincerity expressed, that the exist-
ence of a base and dangerous monied faction in
Great Britain is unquestionable ! We have no
hesitation in using the terns faction, because mo-
ney can be turned into purposes as destructive of
of order as the demolition of the Bastile of Pa-ris.
was, or the Baltimore mob last year. Religious
fanaticism had its day, and cursed lucre has suc-
ceeded it; if British traitors affoid the sinews
of war' to our rancorous enemy, they virtually
cut the throats ' of their fellow-citizens, and un-
dermine the 4 majesty of the sacred throne.' Yes,
it is no solecism to declare, that Members of the
house of Commons, and Peers of the Realm, have
lent aid to America, against the glorious em-
pire,' both in words and money, the latter per-
haps fraudulently acquired. We say, that the ho-
nest fruit of the sweat of the Englishman's brow,
and the diamonds of Golconda, both sparkle. in
the. capital at Washington !!I Has not a British
Nobleman, , whose income from his English es-
tates,is about 140,0001. a-year, not lands in Ame-

the Agent Parish whether this- assertion be true
or false ?' Ask an Ambassador, who some years
back brought his country into a dilemma not yet
expounded, how he negociated -his great father's
concerns. in the American stocks ? He will tell
you nothing at all about it: neither Will our wise

it will be Va,;o to expect any reply. Before con-
cluding this article, we think it tight, lest our
memory shonld,be treacherous in future, to notice
that the agent Parish applied to this Government,
through au•oid acquaintanco here, for liberty to

the range of cannon shot from horn Prescott.
