LITERATURE.

Clara Leicester. By Captain De la Poor Beresford.
3 vols. Thirst and Blackett.
This is a very melancholy story, tracing the sad
effects of an unsuitable marriage, and subsequent
weakness and sin. Contrary to the usual method
of novelists, the tale commences when the heroine
has been married for some years, though she is still
young and beautiful. She has metried a harsh
and unfeeling man to extricate her father from
• some involvements, and sees herself condemned to
a life of wretchedness. Instead of endeavouring to
*rid peace in the conscientious fulfihnen i of her duties,
and the love of her children, she tries to mingle
with her former circle and accompanies her sister,
Who has married an elderly duke, on an extended
voyage. They unfortunately meet with Lord
Sidney Tresham, a distant relation, and after tome
weak vacillation, Clara elopes with hire. The
greatest part of the story is occupied with her sub-
sequent struggles with poverty, neglect and
remorse. In this respect the story has an
excellent moral, showing how Clara wilfully
' east away all chances of peace and comfort by
Buffering herself to b 3 deceived by a heart-
less and unprincipled man. Lord Sidney is
very well drawn, he is not elevated into a hero
asis too often the case in fiction, but he is de-
scribed as a selfish, mean, and dissipated character,
though he could appear under a very different
aspect when it suited him. Lady Grace Delze'l is
the most pleasing person iu the book. She is
Clara'a cousin, and always endeavours to befriend
and assist her. Clara herself is too weak to excite
much interest. The same weakueee and want
•of decision that made her agree to the
marriage that was the source of all het
subsequent troubles, made her yield in the time of
more serious temptation. It is a satisfaction to the
• reader to leave her entering a Spanish convent, fot
. whatever theological errors might be involved in
lier change of faith, she was secure from want and
disgrace. The story cennot be said to be pleasing;
but the moral is a good one, and the sketches of
fashionable life and character will very plobelily
render it acceptable to many reader.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Srn,—There are few subjects more important:to
the public at large, or one that is less understood
by thew.
A nation may be starved from a
,want of it to
purchase food. General Jackson, when he was
eeced President of the United States, in 1837, by
the nobiiity (tie being their champion), having con-
quered Texas, and aided ono more to the stars of
their flag. Alitiough so great a favourite with one
clans, he was anything but a favourite with the
merchants and bankers, who readily admi,ted his
talents as a rough soldier, but had not the least
claim to statesmanship. This so highly offended
him that he determined to b 3 revenged, and de-
clared that nothing but hard dollars should come
into his treasuri ; and most resolutely he kept his
word, and feasted on the downfal of his opponents.
Such a crisis the States had never before known.
It was not only the bankers and merchants who
fell, but they dragged down thousands with them-
selves, by being compelled to force in tl.eir money
ft om those who were unable to meet their engage-
' merits, so that three-fourths of the trading com-
munity were reduced to a state of bankruptcy.
When we visited New York three years after-
wards we were told that had we come four years
sooner we should have witnessed the most flourish-
ing people on the face of the earth. But by the
wanton and cruel act of one ignorant man thou-
sands of capitalists had been reduced to beggary.
My informant, Dr. F. added, ten dollars would
have save 1 many a one from bankruptcy. The
most respectable persons were continually running
from house to house amongst their friends, with
" God bless you, can you lend me ten hard dollars,
I have goods in the Custom-house stores, but
nothing but hard dollars will redeem them."
And when redeemedwere obliged to be sacrificed for
whatever price the monied men chose to give for
them. Many ladies were then obliged to take in
need'ework, wh) had ridden in their carriages.
Notwithstanding this severe lesson, as soon as
the. Californian gold made its appearance a clamour
was raised against their old friends the paper
dollars. The ladies would touch nothing but gold.
" The golden dollars were such pretty little pets!"
50 of them would not take up more space in a
lady's purse than one ugly one. There was no
ro mn for argument in the case. Poor creatures I
they have paid dearly for their new and pretty toy.
Besides, they had the lesson of the Spartans,
once a powerful nation, having been blessed with a
Washington in their Lycurges, who established
iron mosey, and his last request was that they
would not change it—they continued its use 400
years until they became so rich and proud that
they were determined to have g Ad instead of iron.
From that evil day they continued to fall lower
and lower until eutirely lost as a nation. Still
with all their warnings, the fool's cry is for gold.
Of course it i the capitalist's interest to keep up
the delusion, well knowing that his vict m cannot
keep the gold after be has got it. It is the most
perfect game of beggar my neighbour, that ever
was invented.

AUSTRIA AND RUSSIA.

The ludependance of Brussels says :—" 'rho
sovereigns of Austria and Russia are stated to hav,
decided in principle, in their interview at Weimar,
that a treaty of commerce between their sta' es stall
be concluded on the same basis as that betweed
France and Russia. This seems to be the sole
material result of the meeting ; for it appears me ri
positive than ever that, like the interview at
Stuttgard, it was only a friendly meeting of the
sovereigns, and that no resolution likely to affect
the destinies of Europe was adopted. Pac.fic as-
surances were exchanged ; the inviolability of ne
existing divisions of Europe was recognised; but
no stipulation respecting the reduction of armies
and the general disarming of military forces was
come to."

ROREING A PERUVIAN SAILOR cne 431.—Mary Tatton,
a woman of the town, was brought before Mr. Selfe
charged with stealing 471. or 481. in gold from Vin
sent° Lopez.
The prosecutor is a Peruvian, and belongs to the
Peruvian man-of-ear, Arnazm now under repair in
Wigram's dry-dock, Blackwell. He was dressed in
the uniform of a Peruvian [patine. It appeared from
his statement, given in the Spaniel). language, and
trausleted by Norinoyle an intelligent police-consta-
We, 133 H, that he met the prisoner in a public
house on Thursday morning, and after drinking with
her and treating her with a dinner, he went home
,
with bur to a house in St. Anne-street, mar Lime-
house Church. He then had 4n. or 481. in English
gold in a belt riund his waist, and when he
went to bed he took the precaution of fastening the door
of the room, and locking it, and removed his belt and
gold from his waist and put it under his pillo He
slept many boars, and when he awoke he found his belt
on the flmr and all his money gone. He accused the
prisoner who was in the room with having robbed him,
which she denied. He then went and told his ship-
mates of the robbery, and the police were called in and
the prisoner was given into custody.
Mr. Selfe inquired when the man discovered the loss
of his money, and when he called in the police,
and it
appeared from his answers that be slept from 7 in the
evening of Thursday, until 3 or 4 the next morning,
and did not call in tue police until 5 in the evening. He
could not aoooui,t for the delay.
Several of the Peruvian's ship metes, including the
sergeant of marines Oil hoard the Amazon, said they
anew that Lopez had about 501. in English
gold in hi,
belt, and he came on board and said he had been robbed
of it al' The sergeant of marines also said he knew the
prisoner, and that nhc attempted to
pick his pocket and
take his money away ou Monday last.
A constable said the prostitutes had plundered many
of the Amaain's crew since her arrival in the port of
Loudon.

floneywood, 401 K, said the prisoner, who
was taken into emstody at No. 5, St. Anna-street, was a
rno.t notorious and desperate thief, and had been four
tiores in custody.
Mr. Sede—Try and find this poor fellow's money. I
remand the prisoner fora week.
