ECLECTIC RE VIE TV.

Schlosser's " History of the Eighteenth Century" is
reviewed in the Eclectic, and although the dissertation
which grows out of this review is a very scrambling cata-
logue of the literary characters of that eventful age, it is
nevertheless the most striking article in the number ;
and this from the momentous nature of the subject.
A cheap and popular edition of this really remarkable
work would be a most useful publication, and we com-
mend this fact to the consideration of those adven-

turous publishers, who have followed the example of
that celebrated society, of which the Ex-Chan-
cellor Lord Brougham was the originator and
chairman. Ancient History, like the dead •
languages, is taught with infinitely more assiduity than
those histories which pertains to modern times, and
those vernaculars, the knwleclge of which would be of
such immeasurable efficacy in spreading civilisation and
brotherly love throughout the various nations of the
globe. From this preposterous disregard to the develop-
ment of the papular mind, of rendering the mass
familiar with the occurrences in which they are in reality
more interested than in all the achievements of antiquity,
a monster ignorance still hangs over the population.
Thousands are intimately versed in the half-heroic
and half-voluptuous career of Alciabiades, who
have but a feeble notion (if any notion what-
ever) of the blundering policy of M. Necker : and
yet the life of Alciabiades is little better to them
than a fascinating fiction ; while upon the mistaken
political economy of M. Necker depended the social
emancipation of millions. Thousands again are intimately
acquainted with the mellifluous odes of Horace, to whom
the writings of Hobbes are as a book never written; and
yet the Roman poet is nothing better than a minister
to our intellectual luxury, while the pen of the old
Malmesbury philosopher burst asunder many of the ma-
nacles which bound the continental populace in a general
serfdom, and inspind his successors, Le Clerc,Belingbroke,
Montesquieu, Voltaire, Boyle, and Rousseau, to the
production of such a system, or rather of such systems
of philosophy as shook kings upon their thrones,
and have totally changed the character and position
of mankind. Schlosser, therefore, to our thinking
performs, with regard to modern times, what
Plutarch performed with regard to ancient. He divulges
the progres4vo advance of those illustrious men who
were destined ultimately to dissipate the political dark-
ness of many centuries, to arouse the people from
ages of political stagnation and of subjection to
the present state of enlightenment and freedom.
Hence it is that the mere criticism of his singular
work upon the eighteenth century—that century of
chaegel—isinvested with a charm and an importance
quite irrespective of its literary merits. Other papers,
such as pne on "The Lancashire Operatives," another
on Mackenzie S Memoirs, and a third upon the writings
of Mackintosh, render the Review of this.,quarter attrac •
Live.

THE OREGON TREATY.

Mr. M'Dowell, of Ohio, moved a suspension of the rules,
in order to introduce a resolution embodying a protest
against the treaty in progress for a settlement of the Oregon
question.
The resolution and preamble assume that this is a question
proper for the action of the whole legislative power; for the
attempt secretly to adjust the matter while the people and
their representatives are ignorant of the terms, would be
doing injustice to the rights of the people, and "consum-
mated" no obligatory force upon them, therefore
" Resolved.—That in the opinion of the House, it is the
duty of the Senate to postpone the further consideration and
action upon the same, and submit it to the people for their
action and consideration."

The remaining resolutions censure the President and Se-
nate for executive and senatorial supremacy, and for secret
conclave, by which to hide their proceedings from the public
under the midnight veil.
Ou his motion to suspend the rules, the yeas were 35,
nays 156. So the motion was lost.
WASHINGTON, JUNE 16.
THE OREGON TR 3 A TY.-IMPORTANT COMMERCIAL
MOVEMENTS.

The treaty was not sent to the.Sonate yesterday, owing to
the resignation of the Chairman on Foreign Relations. The
vacancy will be supplied by an election to-day, when the
document will be transmitted. It will be necessary to refer
it to that Committee, and their reasons for recommending its
adoption will be embodied.

We learn that Mr. Walker has recovered from his illness,
and will lay his communication relative to the tariff and
Anance before the Senate to-day. It will, it is said, recom-
mend a duty on tea, coffee, and other articles from 20 to 30
per cent., which he estimates will afford an increase of three
or four millions in the revenue. _

.......
It is said with authority that an issue of twelve millions
Ln Treasury notes will also be recommended in preference
Lo a loan.

MONEY MARBET.-JUNE 16, Six P.M.

The stock market was heavy this morning, and prices fell
off a fraction. We look upon this as one of those reactions
usual upon a rising market.
At the first board Pennsylvania Fives declined vt per cent.;
Farmers' Loan, 1/1 ; Morris Canal, 1/1 ; Canton, I ; Long
Island, ; and Norwich and Worcester, 3/4. Mohawk and
Harlem closed at Saturday's prices, and Reading Railroad
Bonds advanced %.
The Exchange Bank and the Canal Bank of Lockport
have suspended. Their bills are no longer redeemed at the

BANKERS' MAGAZINE.

In an article on Post•office money orders, the follow-
ing suggestion is thrown out which will, we hope, be
acted on by bankers generally:—
"But without entering fully into a discussion of all the
questions which may be raised either for or against the pre-
sent system, it is certainly deserving the considerrtion of
bankers in large commercial districts, whether they might
not add considerably to the profits of their business by grant-
ing letters of credit on London and on their correspondents
generally, on the same terms for commission as are now
charged for Post-office orders. The charge might be propor-
tionally increased for sums above W.; that being the highest
amount the Post• office will remit by a single order. 'We
think that a trial of the plan, on an extensive scale, would
show it to be worth continuing."
The carrying out this plan would be a great public
convenience.

-In addition to many valuable articles on railways
a" mines, the present number furnishes some curious
tails relating to stagging and stagdom.

THE PEOPLE'S JOURNAL.
We rejoice to see this publication succeeding; it de-
serves success. Seldom does a periodical advance with
such high aspirations, with such a corps of admirable
contributors, or with such a consistent enthusiasm for
the interest and instruction of its readers. It cannot
fail to become a favourite.

, .
. _
Gentlemen,-The lease of this line having been at•lengih conceded
by the French Government, your directors lose no time in reporting
to you the result of their proceeinss.

They need scarcely remind you that, at the time of your original
association, you were without competitors, and a reasonable expec-
tation was entertained of obtaining the lease for this company on
favdurable terms. More recently, however, it became apparent
that, by reason of the delay which had intervened, and during
which great changes had occurred, we had no chance of obtaining
the undivided possession of the lease, without submitting to terms
which would have rendered the possession of the whole far less be-
neficial, than the occupation of a part of a concession made on more
advantageous terms. Our attention has, therefore, been for some
time past directed to affect an amalgamation of interests between
our own Company and the strongest of oar competitors ; and find-
ing that the Company represented by Mr. Talabot was supported by
the greatest amount of local• interest and wealth, we placed our-
selves in communication, and ultimately In alliance with them. A
deputation of our body proceeded to. Paris to carry this object into
effect, and the result of the negotiation► was an agreement that, In
case that Company should obtain the lease, 23,320 shares of 500
francs (201.) each, should be banded over to your directors for ac-
count of the shareholders, and for rateable distribution among them.
We have now the satisfaction to state that the lease has been ob-
tained by Mr. Talabot's Company, on terms quite satisfactory. The
duration of the lease is 44 years, 298 days.
It remains for us only at the present moment to point out that the
above number of shares divided rateably amongst your body will
give to each shareholder in this (Sebastiani's) Company one con-
stituted share in respect of every seven held by him in this Company.
When the number of shares is not exactly divisible by 7, we rropose
to issue temporary memoranda, or scrips representing fractions of
shares, to be afterwards called in and exchanged for integral
shares, upon terms which will be fully explained on the face of the
document.

The deposit on the constituted shares is fixed at 125 francs (51.)
a share; and there will; therefore, be returnable to the share-
holders the sum of 91., together with one share in the constituted
Company, in exchange for every seven shares in this Company.
You are requested to transmit, at' your earliest convenience, to
this office, 62, King William-street, City, from 11 till 3 your present
letters of allotment and bankers' receipts, and you will then be fin -
fished with proper forms upon your signature, of which your con-
stituted shares will be duly registered in your respective names, and
the balance of Your deposits will be returned to you.
we are, Gentlemen, your obedient servants,

TIVERTON.

Jur.v 4—The writ for a new election, in consequence of
Lord Palmerston having resumed his old post in the Cabinet,
arriVed here at two o'clock this afternoon from the office of
the under-sheriff, Winslow Jones. Esq., Exeter. Lord
Palmerston's acceptance of office had been previously known,
but notwithstanding this the arrival of the writ nude not
the least sensation in the town, the Noble Lord being too
popular to, allow the slightest doubt as to his re election. A
report was spread at Exeter that " Squire Daniel" intended
to try his fortunes in a contest. This gentleman is son of the
far-famed Alderman Daniel, the great West India merchant
of Bristol, who was the architect of his own fot tunes, and has
reared a tolerably substantial edifice. Mr. Daniel possesses
a large property at Stoodleigh, which he purchased from the
late Mr. Fazakerler, a transfer which did not strengthen the
Liberal interest in that district, but the Tiverton Reformers
have nothing to fear from the Daniel interest. Lord Pal-
merston's colleague is John Heatcoat, Esq., ALP., the
celebrated inventor of the lace machine. He has made a
splendid fortune by the legitimate application of his great
original talents, and he has taken care that all who are in
his employ shall in some measure share in the success of the
establishment. He has built and endowed schools for the
children of his workpeople, as well as those of the towns-
people. They are superintended by able teachers, and sup-
plied with the best maps, models, &c. He has provided
large cottage allotments for his workpeople, and voluntarily
limited the working time to eleven hours per day. In re-
spect to the town itself his liberal hand is engaged in every
good work, and at the present moment he is maintaining, at
a heavy pecuniary cost, a Chancery suit against the trustees
of Blundell's School, in order to compel them to administer
the trust of the Tiverton Grammar School, in accordance
with the will of the donor, and in obedience to the general
requirements of the present day, as well as the earnest desire
of the inhabitants. In all his works of usefulness, Mr.
Heathcoat is most ably supported by his son-in-law and
partner, A. Brewin, Esq. The effect of all this public spirit
is to make the inhabitants stand by him as one man • and as
Lord Palmerston has the warm support of Mr. Heathcoat's
partizans and friends, his Lordship's return is certain.
