LORD BROUGHAM on the POLICY

OF ENGLAND AND FRANCE.

The following extract of a letter from Lord Brougham
to a friend in France appeared on Saturday in the
Obse• voteur F.ancais, a journal published in London:—
" I have jr.st, my dear Count, received your amiable
letter of the Bth curt.; and though I hope to see you be-
fore the middle' of October, I will not leave you without
an answer to the question you ask of me—a question
,a bleb, in my view, is a very important one.

" You wish to know whether the entehte cordiale is
with us a rational as well as a cordial feeling. You sly
you think that it is an affair between one sovereinn
and another, rather than between one people and the
other ; and in support of your doubts you quote the
much-to-lc-regretted expressions which I acknow-
leego have been used by several papers among us
allO know nothing, and by several persons in Parlia-
ment who should have known better.

" Do not believe a word of it, my dear Count, and do
not let a single doubt remain on your mind on the sub-
ject. I have no hesitation in assuring you that there is
nothing more cemin in our policy here than the good
feeling of all parties towards France, and that nothing
would to more unpopular than the slightest coolness
between the two Courts.

". The very persons who are supposed on your side the
water to die at least dispos( d to the tnainterance of
friendly- relations, are the friends of peace, and they
would show themselves so if ever (which God forbid)
the slightest appearance of misunderstanding should
he manifested between the two Courts. Even if
this feeling, should only exist, as you suppose, between
the two Sovereigns themselves, that would of itself be
most ithpottant f r the good cause. The great qualities
of the Prince you possess, and who, happily for Europe,
governs you, are well known ; and as regards our Queen,
I can assure you that she has known how to attract the
most profound respect, and has merited the greatest con-
fidence on the part of all men of any consequence here
whose support :s n oral anything, from the admirable
talent she has shown for business, and for that firm and
loyal character r. hich is so seldom met with in princes,
and still more rarely (pardon my want of gallantry) in
princest,es.
" If you do not see in this a new pledge of good feeling,
yen will be of my opinion when you read the correspondence
and journals of Lord S., which you will receive from the
Ambassador. You will there see how much the personal
prejudices of the grandfather of our Queen influenced
both the exterior as well as the interitr policy of this
country during the whole of his lifetime.

" Still I confess that my uneasiness as regards several
persons in your country, men who stand high, and who
are in reality not bad men, have not entirely disappeared.
" I am of your opinion, and I believe that these same
persons, some of whom I admire and esteem sincerely,
if they were in the ministry, would never be the insti-
.

gatori of a v‘arlilee policy. -That is quite simple. But
after having excited the mercurial spirits of Paris (ex-
cuse the phrase)—after having driven the cafe;, the
salons, the journalists, the half-pay officers, the agi-
tators, and the agitatresses (you must again forgive me)
to desire war, how can we be sure that their power would
he sufficient to calm the storm raised by their spirit of
faction ?

" It is only for the purpose of upsetting the ministry
(you say) that these gentlemen preach hatred to Eng-
land—to that England who loves and respects France,
and who has never ceased to do full justice to all her
military and civil glories. But who will be the guarantee
that in upsetting the ministry they shall not destroy that
pacific existence which they themselves would be sorry
to destroy, and which they wish only to inherit.
" I can perfectly understand the project of an heir
who desires the death of his predecess, ,r in order that
he may succeed to the possession of his fine house ; but
when I see that same heir not only alerming the owner
by cries of fire to indnce him to save himself by the win-
dow, but also setting lire to the house, in the hope of
being able to extinguish the fire after its possesor shall
have brcken his neck, I most certainly cannot understand
the wisdom cf such a project, any more than I can its
morality:.
_ _

" If These gentlemen should succeed, and if the good
intelligence should cease between our two countries, we
who are the friends of peace shall not be consoled much
by the reflection that the war was provoked without any
such intention.

‘• There are some of your friends to whom, if I mis-
take not, my ideas may be easily applitd ; endeavour, I
beg of you, to had them back a little towards more
healthy and more philanthropic principles.
" As to what you say about Ireland, your thunderbolts
of war need not reckon upon that part of our empire—
nothing can be more weak than the anti-English party
there. Our Government has shown itself resolved tf,

permit no outrage of its authority there ; and we tenon
here (a thing of tvhieh you are profoundly ignorant in
France) that all these harangues and these xneetings
Ireland are nothing but :sound and zmoke. The agita-

tors want to get rr;t:ey, and the other chiefs love noise
but none of them will move a single step, and I can as
sure you that no ene thinks of it the least in the world
In the meanwhile our Government has done much t,
gtve contentment to the Fork of Ireland ; on the othr
nand, their_ priests al.:: divided among themselves, while
the agitators do not know now vihat to do.
" That that country has grievances is quite true, bu
the greater part of them arise from abuses which legis,
lutors know not how to remedy. These evils have the-is
source in the se cial system, and in the distribution r'
propc,rty—evils wh'ch the very maddest of their agita.
tors themselves have never dared to attempt to touch."

AMERICAN WHEAT.—HARVEST.—TI- e St. Louis
Era says, the new crop has just cemmenced arriving freely:
and should the upper streams continue even in their present
difficult wage for navigation, we may expect to see, in the
course of three or four weeks, large quantities of wheat
pouricg into the market ; even at this early period there are
thousands of bushels of the new crop lying at the landing
along the Illinois,' Upper Mississippi, and Missouri, waiting
shipment. All the boats which have reached this port from
above fir three or four days past, have come down with as
much as they could possibly get along with, and many of
them, particularly those from the Missouri and Illinois, had
to refuse more wheat than would have loaded them twice
over in a fair stage of water. The wheat harvest has indced
been. a magnificent one. From every quarter the cry is
plenty; on the Missouri, Upper Mississippi, and Illinois, the
average yield over the crop of last year will be fully 83 per
cent. ; and in many sections of the country full 50 per cent.;
add to this the superior quality of the grain, which
appears to be uniformly of nearly the samequality, and there
must be a great surplus ; how, when, and where it is to be
disposed of, remains to be seen.— Washington Constitu.ion.
EXTRAORDINARY SCENE AT A CORONER'S INQUEST.
—On Wednesday afternoon Mr. Bedford, the Coroner, held an
inquest at the Rising Sun, Great Scotland-yard, respecting
the death of Charles Augustus Simpson, a child about five
weeks old, under the subjoined circumstances:—The parents
of deceased reside in Great Scotland-ye rd. Mary Paskell,
deceased's aunt, deposed that she had attended deceased ever
since its birth, and it was a very healthy child. On Monday
morning, about eleven o'clock, witness went out with de-
ceased and its mother, and got into a steam-boat from the
Adelphi-stairs to London-bridge. On their return from that
place deceased cried a g( od deal. Witness then gave the
child to its mother, and as they lauded at the Adelphi-pier
blood was seen oozing from deceased's eyes and nose. Wit-
ness proceeded with deceased to the Opthalmic Hospital,
in Charing-cross., and on their arrival there deceased had
ceased to breathe. A warm bath was ordered, but it had no
effect; life was quite extinct. Deceased was subsequently
taken to Dr. Leonard, of Craven-street, Strand, who consi-
dered that death bad been caused by the breaking of some
blood-vessel in the vicinity of the lugs. The jury was com-
posed of fourteen gentlemen, ore of whom, by his views of
the case, gave rise to the utmost coefusi,,n and uproar. The
juror in question was of opinion that the medical gentleman
ought to have been on the inquiry, as, in his absence, there
was no evidence to show how deceased had come by its death.
In addition to which, the necessity of a post mortem examina-
tion was urged, while twelve of the jury were unanimously
of opinion that such a proceeding would be totally irrele-
vant, and not assist them the least in the decision of their
verdict. After a sebne of great uproar, it was ultimately de-
termined by the coroner sending for Dr. Lennard, who came
forward end gave corroborative evidence, and at last a ver-
dict of " Death from natural causes" was recorded. The in-
quiry lasted several hours.
TUE NEW ROYAL EXCLIANGE.—The statue of Sir
Thomas Gresham, ty Behnes, has, during the last few days,
been fixed in the niche in front of the ruw Royal Exchange,
at the east end, and under the cupola.
hrnAcomnr, Ocr. 18.—This delightful and roman-
tic watering.place has been full of company the whole
summer, and has now a large influx of company; the public-
rooms were crowded ith a fashionable audience, who were
highly amused with Mr. Lover's Irish Entertainment. There
has been a prejudice against this town as a winter residence
under the supposit:on that the north of Devon is unusually
cold at that season, but this is rapidly wearing off; so that
this pleasing spot is now likely to have two seasons, many
more families than usual having taken home for the
winter.
