SPLENDID CHRISTMAS NOVELTIES.

Wednesday, Dec. 29, and every evening during the week, Mr.
JACOBS, the ROYAL VENTRILOQUIST and GREAT
MODERN MAGICIAN, whose performances during the
last two seasons created a great sensation, will, for a third time,
have the honour of submitting to the public his unrivalled and
truly pleasing performances. His NECROMANTIC TEM-
PLE will be found superior in every respect to those on former
occasions. His Ventriloquism has undergone considerable
change and improvement; in the delineation of the various
characters he is the first in Europe ; a great treat is afforded to
the audience in this department.
Mr. Jacobs, in addition to his own interesting entertainment,
has added those of Mons. ROSSEAU, the celebrated
FRENCH EQUILIBRIST ; Herr KREUZER'S PHAN-
TASNIAGORIAL DISSOLVING PORTRAITS, which
are on an entirely new system ; and the Classical Experiments
of the PATAGONIAN WONDERS. The tout ensemble
forms a Combination of Talent not to be surpassed.

" There is at present an Exhibition at 209, Regent-street,
as elaborate a Model as was ever perhaps presented to pub-

as the cemetery of his favourite wife, Sultana Mehd

minuteness of detail and delicate manipulation for which Indian
ivory working is so noted. The amount of labour bestowed on
this model must have been immense. It is not the hasty pro-
duct of a day,' but the result of many years' patient applica-
tion. All the multitudinous carvings and inlayings of the ori-
ginal building are expressed in the copy with every appearance
of exactness ;
nor is the resemblance limited to the outside
alone : the interior is also finished in the same minute style,
and contains the tombs of the Shah and his Consort, exqui-
sitely and elaborately worked. On the whole, this model pre-
sents a surprising and beautiful effect, and terms one of the
most interesting exhibitions in the metropolis."—Morn. Chron.

MORNING SUN

Presidential Message, and a passage in the Royal
speech. Mr. TYLER speaks of the " communi-
cation between the distant parts of the Union
being; occupied by railroads, which, from their
nature, possess a complete monopoly." King
Louis PHILIPPE tells his Chambers " that a
Project of law will be presented to them for con-
structing the principal lines of a great system of
'lnroads." In the Republic the gigantic work
is achieved ; in the Monarchy the Government
is again talking about it; and, judg,inr, from the
Past, years will elapse before it can be begun.
In the Republic there is no collision between
the PreSs and the Government. In the Monarchy
the Government has staked its existence on put-
ting the Press under its feet. Either it will
trataple down and destroy that great engine
11f social improvement, or be itself destroyed.
„,
'ilie'attempts to establish a despotism are the
s°rtrunners of another anarchy. In opposition
c
7the Press, no Government can now exist; and
the destruction of Louis PHILIPPE'S system is
as certain as if it were already accomplished.
den who have the reputation of being moderate
441 wise, like M. GUIZOT and the Duke DE
Ii3OGLIE, seem to have taken the lead in pro-
keting this terrible system of coercion and dis-
trust, making it impossible to adopt any other
conclusion, than that the system they administer
is founded in some grievous error repugnant to
the laws of nature.
Though Mr. President TYLER'S Message ap-
Pears so much to advantage when contrasted with
the Speech of the KING of the FRENCH, it is by
no means a. favourable specimen of its class of
Productions. It is deficient in dignity, verbose, ill-
Written, confused, and, in speaking of England,
trifling and querulous. The affair of Mr. M'LEon
first engages the PRESIDENT'S attention, and he
rejoices that the independent action of a criminal
Csurt and an enlightened Jury, by acquitting
h`LEon, dried up one source of angry conten-
tion between the two countries. Mr. TYLER ob-
tiously feels the reproach which the Press of
Europe has thrown on the Federal Government,
that it has no means of stopping judicial proceed-
Itigs in one of the States, which may implicate it
With foreign nations. To remedy this now manifest
iinperfection in the American Constitution, he
recommends Congress to enable all parties to re-
move, at their option, " all such cases as may
aereafter arise, and which involve the faithful
Observance and execution of our international
Obligations, from the State to the Federal
'ildiciary."
The PRESIDENT next adverts to the attack
made on the Caroline in 1837, and stoutly con..
tends that our Government was not warranted,
tinder any circumstances, in invading the Amer--
enn territory. The pith of his observations on
this subject, which imply rather a timid than a
friendly
spirit, lies in his conclusion, that "I can-
not but indulge the hope that the British Go-
lernment will see the propriety of renouncing,
4'll a rule of future action, the precedent which
has
been set in the affair at Schlosser."
Neither in this observation, nor in his remarks
about the Boundary, do we see any cause for ap-
prehension ; but knowing how much the Ameri-
'44 detest being searched by British men-of-war,
lowing, too, that the right of search has been
most arrogantly exercised, we foresee the
germs of violent contentions in our un-
fortunate, though well meant, efforts to
441:Tress the slave trade. Mr. TYLER denies •
the right of all the nations of the earth to make
ttilkY:4lterpolations in the Maritime Code without
_Lie,consent of the Americans. He adds, " when
we are given to understand by a foreign Govern-
Ilient, that its treaties with other nations cannot
;e executed without the establishment and en-
icireeinent of new principles of maritime police,
'be applied without our consent, we must em-
Pl°Y a language neither of equivocal import, nor ,
ilts Optible of misconstruction." He expresses
h "4111deterinination to urge on Great Britain to 1
Want full and ample remuneration for all losses
I.llstaired by American citizens engaged in law- 1
.Ll. commerce, and he indulges a hope that Great
• talc: will not refuse remuneration for wrong k
to those citizens by the exercise of rights
N,eh the American Government cannot recog-
4.,-e as legitimate. This is the most important,
t the most painful part of Mr. TYLER'S. Met-
e• 'lt indicates an additional and festering
14. -
Jet of piarrel between the two nations.
kr. TYLER infers, from the manner in which 1
1/aPer money has been abused, that society
wonld have been happier without it; and lie re-
e'°,.intriends Congress to inquire whether the
411111 Its cannot be made to resume cash payments,
tlt liquidate all demands on them. At the same
4141 he announces a plan for a new fiscal agent '
furnish 4. a sound paper medium," to be
placed under an independent Board of Control,
,o
have a capital of 15,000,000 dollars, agencies
:tlifferent parts of the Union, and be a discount
" exchange agent. In this scheme, which
Pea to establish a powerful rival of the excutive
17vernment, we trace the contriving hand of Mr.
11313 LE. It is the work of a profound financier,
rtrut on disguising what he really means, and
ter can have sprung from the simple mind of
111.' TYLER. The scheme is, in truth, the esta-
jBllTnent of an independent National Bank, '
without adopting the name.
We shall notice one topic more, in which the ,
monied,‘ classes are much interested. The PRE-
hi:
tNY asserts that the indebtedness of the seve-
-0
ilt States amounts to 200,000,000 dollars, which
, INnay has generally been spent in important
hi el'ilal improvements. Though lie expresses
i: belief that each State will honourably fulfil
i,,i!ngagements, and points out the rapid de-
613tlient of their resources as reasons why
they`4 811°11W, he declares that he can do nothing
4,vnia,....kethem. If the separate States, therefore,
e
.'1" that feeling of honour and conscientious-
tii.g rbleb the PRESIDENT attributes. to them,
ell' debtors in Europe . may give up their
claims,B: The hopes that were founded on the
interfere,
that the general Government would
must now be at an end. Like the
1,4. E, SYDENT, we trust a great deal to the sense of
4:Aitudi which is strong in every free people,
qwe shall be slow to believe that any of the
States will repudiate their engagements.

The whole of the Paris Papers have been re-
teived. They contain no news of the slightest
European interest. Though the Chambers were
to be opened on Monday, the circumstance a-
t:Acted no attention, nor was the expected
'Peed), from the Throne the object of a single
.1131Nrtant, conjecture. The Government is
-"PPO4ed to have gained a great accession
