COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH BRAZIL.

The following is an extract from the Treaty
of Commerce with Brazil, from which it would
appear that the Treaty cannot be strictly said to
expire next month, but that it is only subject at
that date to the revision and examination of the
contracting parties.
ARTICLE 33 OF THE TREATY OF COMMERCE

AMERICAN PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.

This anxiously expected document was brought
to Glasgow last Monday by the Camillus packet,
which arrived in the Clyde on that day, and wag
received this morning in town. Its great length'
prevents us from inserting it entire in our columos
to-day, but we have selected the passages regard'
ing the foreign relations of the United State
which will be found highly satisfactory, interest'
ing, and important, and have given the substance
of those which relate to its internal affairs.

WASHINGTON, DEC. 7, 1824.—This day, 51
twelve o'clock, the President of the United
States communicated to both Houses of CougrS
the following

CHILBLAINS, RHEUMATISM, SPRAINS, &c.

been lung esteemed on the Continent, as a relined); for Chronic
Rheumatism, Spasmodic Affections, Chilblains, Palsy; Stiff-

proves that it merits the high character given of it by the

ANECDOTES, &c.

•
" THE Two SHERIDANS" (says MICHAEL
KELLY), " were supping with me one night after the Opera,
at a period when Tom expected to get into Parliament." " I
think, father," (said he), " that many men, who are called
great patriots in 'the House of Commons, are great humbugs.
For my Own part, if I get into Parliament I will pledge myself
to no party, 'out write upon my forehead in legible characters,
To be Let," and under that, Tom, (said his father) write Un-
furnished."
CLEMENCY.-One day that CASIMIR 11. King
of Poland, was at play with one of his Courtiers, the latter hav-
ing a run of ill luck, so far lost all command of himself, that
Ihe gave the King a box on the ear. He was immediately sent
to prison, and condemned to lose his head ; but the King mag-
nanimously revoked the sentence, saying "I am not surpriz-
!, ed at the conduct of this gentleman, as he could not avenge
himself on Fortune, he naturally did so upon his favourite.
Besides, I alone am culpable in this matter ; for I ought not to
encourage by. my example a pernicious habit which may oeca,
sion the ruin of the nobility."
A SURGEON when bleeding a French lady of
quality, had the misfortune to open the artery in such a manner
that the lady died in the course of a few days. In her will she
had the generosity to bequeath an annuity of eight hundred
I ivres a year to the disconsolate surgeon, not only, as she ex-
nresied it, to console him, but to put him in such a condition
That be should no longer be obliged to handle the lancet.

[THE PUBLIC LEDGER.]

We have received the Paris Papers; but their
contents, with the exception of such as relate to
Spain, are destitute of interest. The late im-
provement in the Money Market has not sus-
tained itself, as was very generally expected ;
and the slight depression which took place in the
Rentes on Friday, was merely the precursor of a
much greater fall on the following day ; the 3
per cents. having closed on this day at 621. This
fall appears to be the result alone of the deep
gloom that pervades our own Market, there
being nothing that we can perceive either
in the political, commercial, or financial cir-
cumstances of France, capable of account-
ing for it. But the sympathy between
the two Markets is much greater than is usually
imagined ; though it is only a few days since
that a French Ministerial Paper was pleased to
draw the attention of its readers to the stability
of all the great interests of his own country, as
compared with the state of our own. He has
now a reply to his boasting statement ; and he
will have a further illustration of its errors, if the
distrust continue, to which the English market
is unfortunately subjected at the present mo-
ment. As this distrust has been now carried to
an extent that absolutely confounds all calcu-
lations, we can only call it a sort of influenza,
which has its existence in causes that are placed
above human controul, and which during its
prevalence, defies human skill. It has this
peculiarity too, that measures intended as
remedies, have, in most cases, no other effect
but that of adding to its violence ; and perhaps
the best way of treating it, though every Quack
has his sovereign nostrum, is to let time disease
exhaust itself. Those, who have no real stamina,
will probably succumb ; and some who are not
exactly placed in this situation, may become
its victims ; but, in the end, the injury, in a
national point of view, will not be considera-
ble, great as individual sufferings may he for
a time. If it only effectual sufferings may be
for a time. If it only effectually serve to
check the wild spirit of speculation, so inconsis-
tent with the cautious, reflecting and honoura•
ble character of Englishmen, which prevailed a
short time since, it will ultimately do more good
than harm, particularly as every other interest has
been thriving for some time, and would luive ar-
rived at a much higher degree of prosperity, had
it not been for the improvident spirit we are now
animadverting upon, and which is now working
its own cure. The distemper has had its rise in
excess, and its only cure is abstinence; but to
feed it, as some persons strongly urge at this time,
is a course which, we trust, the State Physicians
have too much skill and firmness to adopt.

On the. afternoon of Thursday last, between four and five
o'clock, a remarkably fine vessel, named the Saint Lawrence.
of the burthen of 335 tons, built by William Smith. Esq. ana
Co., at St. Peter's Dock, near Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 1.:44
launched. She moved into the water in fine style, amid the
cheers of a great number of spectators, the firing of guns, &c.
Judges have pronounced this vessel to be the very first of the
class' to which she belongs, that ever was built on the river
Tyne; and she is justly considered as furnishing another spe-
cimen of the superior talents of the builders as naval architects.
After the launch Rowland Hodge, ES9. (the owner of the ves-
sel) entertained a numerous party of friends with a hearty glass
of wine, in The upper rooms of the Dock-office.

holders of notes were now left to a tedious action by writ. Per-
haps it would be adviseable to pass a short act, before closing the
Session, to give a more prompt remedy.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, that the holders of notes
had a better remedy than could be given by any new Act in
the law and the practice of banking credit as it now stood.—
There could be no doubt that the country bankers were bound
to pay in the current coin of the realm ; and the responsibility
of not doing so threatened consequences to a banking Lt.tablish-
ment of good credit much more weighty than a.,:tew Act of
Parliament could enforce.
Lord,CLIFDEN said, that a friend of his hadibeen ti•egited
very unfairly the. Rank of Ireland. He .sent 1001. of their
notes, and thetsent him back guineas, which, tho Ugh a legal
tender, would not pass, and were therefore useless. Surely
they ought to have sent the guineas to be coined into sovereigns
which they might have done without expence.

Mr. ADAM said, that Sir George JerMingham's descent
from the late Earl of Stafford was considered as established,
there. being no doubts manifested respecting it on the former
inquiry.
_The, LICIIID CuAwcri.ton said, that Sir George Jerning-
ham s:-.me time ago petitioned his Majesty to have his claim
established. His Majesty having referred it to the House, two
questions arose—first,- as to the pedigree ; and, secondly, how
far the attainder affected him. The latter was referred to the
Judges ; and before they came to a decision the attainder was
reversed. Application was then made to issue a writ; but re-
collecting that the question of pedigree was also before the
House, and not established, he
,did not feel at liberty to com-
ply. He was often blamed for hesitating in such cases ; but if
it should turn out that the pedigree could not be established,
their Lordships might then feel inclined to give him credit for
being"ptirticular.
The further consideration was adjourned to 'Wednesday next.

with respect to the Catholics or the Elective
Franchise. But, as the Earl of Liverpool justly
observed, it does all that was to be reasonably
expected from the Committee. It presents an
L immense body of important information on which
measures may be grounded, but it leaves, as it
ought to do, the choice of those measures to Par-
liament. In the course of the next Session it is
more than probable that the labours of the
Committee now charged with sterility will pro-
duce their fruit.—Several petitions from various
classes of workmen and manufacturers were pre-
sented yesterday against the Bill for repairing
the fatal blunders committed last year by Mr.
flume whilst legislating on the Combination
Laws. That Bill, however, went through all its
remaining stages, and passed with perfect unani-
mity. Both sides lamented that it should have
reached the Upper House at a time when it could
not bestow particular attention upon it ; but all
agreed that even under those circumstances it was
necessary to be passed for the protection of ma-
nufacturers, and of the workmen against them-
selves. The Earl of Liverpool, with his usual
manly frankness, took shame to himself for the
fact, but confessed that he was totally ignorant
of the Act of last year, or would otherwise have
opposed and altered its injurious provisions.

COURT OF KING'S BENCII—(THIs DAY.)

HOLLAND.
This was an action brought. by the plaintiff, a
man jn menial circuenstances, with a wife and
family of three children, to recover a compensa-
tion in damages, against the defendant, for the
injury his daughter received in being run over
by the defendant's horse and gig, and the loss of
her services.—lt appeared from the evidence of
the witnesses that-the occurrence was purely ac-
cidental ; the. defendant was driving quietly
along the street, and in order to get out of the
way of some fowls, the gig drove over the plain-
tiff's daughter, and seriously hurt her, by which
she was taken to Middlesex Hospital, and after-
wards home, but was some time .an- out-patient.
it was proved that the plaintiff and his wife sus-
tained some loss of time in conveying their-child
to and from the hospital.
Mr. SCARLETT here objected 'to any evidence
being adduced as to the loss the parents had sus-
tained, because the child might have remained in
the hospital till it was perfectly cured of the in.
iury.—Plaintiff nonsuited.

ELECTION OF SHERIFFS.

Yesterday a Common Hall was held for the
purpose of receiving the official return upon the election of
Sheriffs. The LORD MAYOR and City Officers came in state.
The votes having been duly examined, the final return of the
numbers was exactly the same as that made on Friday. Mr.
Alderman CROWDER and Mr. KELLY were declared by the
Sheriffs to be duly elected to serve for the year ensuing, and
were called upon to come forward and accept the office " on
pain of the penalties that shall fall thereon."
Alderman CROWDER said, words could not express his
gratitude, but he hoped that his deeds during his shrievalty
would manifest it to the Livery.
Mr. KELLY said, he had at great personal inconvenience
come forward in compliance with the request of a great num-
ber of the most respectable of the Livery, and he should en-
deavour to do justice to their confidence.
On the motion of Mr. WARNE, thanks were voted to the
Sheriffs for their conduct during the election. The vote was
ordered to be advertised in the public papers.
Mr. Sheriff BROWN and Mr. Sheriff KEY, in returning
thanks, congratulated the Livery on the choice they had made.
The Hall was then dissolved.

ed its interests with the kindest solicitude and
-success. The malicious attempts which have
been made for several weeks past, in certain Jour-
nals, to set the Indian Army against the Duke, as
having occasioned delay in the distribution, ap-
pear to be so entirely unfounded, that when the
matter comes to be investigated, we find the
charge takes a new shape, and the Noble
Trustee is accused of entertaining too great

an aversion to litigation ! The very same columns
which have been so long filled with doleful
lamentations at the length of law suits,and bitter
reproaches against the whole profession of the
law for provoking them—those same columns now
argue that if a Trustee intimate a wish to avoid
litigation, he must he taken to intend an insult
on all the Learned Counsel who have been con-
sulted in the cause! Such is the inconsistency of
those who resolve to find fault on all occasions,
right or wrong ! A first hasty perusal of Col. Fiz-
SiTllOll'S petition may probably create an impres-
sion that there had been gross delay on the part
of the trustees.- A more careful examination,
however, of the facts stated, even in that petition,
will go a great way toward weakening such im-
pression ; but the object of the counter-petition
was to remove the unfounded suspicion altogether.
The officers who signed it show clearly that
they believe the Duke of Wellington to be an
honest and an able man. They believe that it is
his wish to obtain for them as much as he can,
consistently with reason, usage, law, and justice.
They believe that he will forward their interest
at the least possible ex pence, and with the ut-
most practicable expedition ; and believing all
this, it is natural that they should stand forward
to prevent his efforts from being impetied by
tniFrepresentatidu or ill-guided zeal.

ilixtructt front the 3Torning Papers, July 5, 1525.

• ,_ - [NEW TIMES.]
• Another very long and laboured attack on the
113+16-ke of Wellington, as Trustee of the Deccan

Ako4y; has been put forth ; hat the writer is much

. • nalieturbrd- brthe • untoward circumstance of a
having been presented to the House of
v).l4l;ktna-rons, praying the House " not to entertain
propositions for disturbing the course of the
-•s?4iroceetlinfrs of the Trustees." As the former pe-
• 7-•.tition, that the H.onse shotild interfere, was the
--I,iatt of. is single individual (a Lieat.-ColonelFitz-
.-/isinsoa),-the Journal to which we allude very tlis-
. ,I.:ingenuoasly'represents the counter-petition to be
'.-.4igned by the Major-General Sir John Malcolm
alone. The truth is, that besides that very distill-
••-,g‘iiihed officer, it was signed by Col. Noble, com-
- -naanding the Horse Artillery ; by Col. Scott,
:,;_,rho commanded the force that fought at Seeta-
bandeek by Major Jolly, a Staffofficer ; and, we
believe, by Col. Lushington of the Madras Ca-
varly, by whom it was presented to the House.—
All
these officers (as they justly remark) have a
common interest with the army in whiCh they
served, both in the amount and in the-early- dis-
iribution of the booty. All of them feel grati-
tude to his Majesty for having accompanied the
.grant of the booty by the gracious act of naming,
as one of the Trustees, that illustriOus Noble-
- wan- and consummate General, the Duke of.
Wellington. . They rely the more implicitly on
his Grace's exertions on their behalf, because his
Grace has elevated the character of the Indian

army to such high renown, and has ever protect-
