SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

I - FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAT.
GLOBE.- If the exultation of the American
Journals received - -yesterday by - the Great
Western, extracts from which appeared in the
Globe oelast night—may be regarded as a cri-
terion of •the kind 'of bargain which Lord Ash•
.
burton has concluded on behalf of this country
with the American Government for the settle-
ment of the Boundary question, we are led to
apprehend that Jonathan has proved more
than a match for the British millionaire
in the business of negotiation. In addi-
tion to these expressions of satisfaction, we
find it strongly urged upon the Corporation of
New York, that they get up a grand festival,
. demonstrative of the general joy at so gratifying
a termination of the long-pending and irritating
disagreement between the two countries, and in
honour of the British Envoy by whom it has
been brought about. We reciprocate the feelings
of gratification of which every friend of his coun-
try in both nations must. - partake, on witnessing
tine bands of amity drawn closer and strengthened
between two nations, the prosperity of which
essentially depends on the perpetuity of peace
between them. Nor would we too closely scan
the conditions, in any matter of doubtful dispu-
tation, by which the cause of existing and long
continued jealousy between the two Govern-
ments had been removed. But even with this
disposition carried to its extreniest limit, we are
compelled to expiess an opinion, that if the
terms of settlement of the disputed Boundary
line be such as are here described; and if, in ad-
dition to them, Great Britain is by Lord Ash-
burtono pledged to pay for the timber stopped by
the various booms on the waters of the St. John,"
such a treaty is a compromise of national honour,
for which few in this country were prepared,
'and to the alleged conditions of which the pre-.
servation of peace—if; indeed, it were ever in
danger of being interrupted—will hardly recoil-
' -ile the English people, jealous of their nation's
hono"lr* Well may the Americans, if it be such
as they
--scribe' chuckle over it, and affirm that
" far as its terms are understood,
the treaty, st..
is a good one for
----Inc and also for the'Union !"
--adence froth the repro-
We shall withhold our e,_ States journals
sentations given by the, Uni,. intelligence
until something like authenticateL
arrives of the specific terms agreed upon. .44
STANDARD.—In the manufacturing distric-
of the north of England matters remain ia.statu
quo. In Manchester many of those • who had
been induced to resume their work, have again
turned out, and although they have committed
no new outrage, appear to be as intractable as
ever. It is, however, some consolation to the
lovers of order to find, that although the Anti-
Corn-law Leaguers have managed to set the masses
in motion, they have failed giving them the
direction they had hoped. The Anti-Corn-law
agitation has entirely given place to one for the
Charter and an advance of wages. The Leaguers
are indeed almost forgotten in the districts they
have managed to disturb. Whether or not they
will continue to supply the " sinews" of a war
from which they are no longer to reap advan-
tage remains to be seen. At Preston, Oldham,
Stockport, and- the towns arid villages in the
neighbourhood of Manchester, a manifest dis-
position has been displayed by the operatives to
return to their work. The exceptions are
confined to those .who have been wrought
upon by the incendiary harangues of the
few delegates who still venture to keep
the field. At Stockport an acconimoda-
' Lion would inevitably have taken place,
but for the interference of persons assuming this
sort of authority. At Dundee a collision with the
military had very nearly been occasioned by
the incendiary .harangues of real or'pretended
delegates. At Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Gates-
head, and the neighbouring" towns, no attempt
was made to follow the example of the Lanca-
shire manufacturing itowns until the arrival of
" delegates" from those districts. lis clear,
therefore, that the wisest and most humane
course is to prevent them from addressing
language to their dupes calculated to create
breaches of th public peace ; and had the atten-
tion of the. Magistracy been directed in the first
instance to these parties, a great deal of mischief
would ;have been averted.

GRAND REVIEW OF. THE ARMY
OF THE RHINE BY THE LEADING CONTI.
NENTAL PO `A EES.

A letter from a military correspondent at Co-
logne, of the 23d instant, announces that the King
of Prussia, accompanied by the Emperor of Aus-
tria, the ing of Hanover, the King of Bavaria,
'the King of Wurtemberg, the Grand Dukes of
Baden and Nassau, and twenty of the reigning
Princes of Germany, will review on the sth of
September, the• splendid arm of the Rhine,
66,000 strong; consisting of the /7th and Bth corps
of the- Prussian Army. This force is repre-
sented to be in the most effective condition, both
us to appearance and discipline. A number of
distin?.uished British officers have already as-
sembled at Cologne for the purpose,of witnessing
this gratifying spectacle, and apartmenta.have,
it is said, been bespoken at the Belle Vue Hotel
for the Duke of Wellington and several of his
friends. It could not, however, be known with
certainty whether his Grace would be able to
attend or not until the 29th. He is.said, to have
received a most cordial invitation froM the
King of Prussia. Should he attend, the interest
of this imposing spectacle will be greatly en-
hanced. Of the 66,000 men who are to take part
in the approaching review, 48,800 are infantry
troops, 10,200 cavalry, and 7,000 artillery, with
272 field pieces. The reputation of the Prussian
army for science stands so high at present, that
permission is about to be given by the Horse
Guards to a certain number of officers to study
the art of war in that country. On- Ole 4th of
September the. foundation-stone of the cathedral
at Cologne, in which the King of Prussia has
taken so deep
.an interest, will be laid, with the
usual ceremonies.
