A. POET.—There exists in a little street of the
town of , a little shop kept by a little man,
who shaves all day long the little tradesmen of the
place. This man is, perhaps, the first poet of the
age. He is the celebrated Jasmin, who has written,
in the Gascon patois, poems of the first order. An
excursion he has just made to Paris has procured
him innumerable triumphs. All the salons fought to
have him. The verses he recites, though composed
in an idiom almost unknown in Paris, produce always
a deep sensation. The talent with which he explains
in usual language the subject he intends relating in
the Gascon—the grace and expression of his delivery,
facilitate wonderfully the ear in catching the sense
of his words; he makes his audience often roar with
laughter, and frequently he moves them to tears.
His elegy, entitled, " L'Aveugle de Saint Dizier,"
has been translated into several languages. Jasmin,
to whom the King has sent as a token of his gracious
favour, a magnificent watch and chain, has just re-
ceived from his Majesty of the Netherlands the cross
of Chevalier of the Couronne de Chene. An inn-
keeper in Ireland was once knighted by a drunken
Viceroy, but we never heard of a barber being so
lucky before.—Letter from Paris.
THE STADE DIIES.—The German papers state the
new Stade duties are to be, instead of 1-16th, the
most that Hanover had any right by treaty to
demand, 1-sth; but English produce is only to pay
1-Bth. It is clear that King Ernest has neither the
right nor the power to levy the ten-thousandth part of
these duties, and every sixpence levied in consequence
of this treaty on English goods, or English subjects,
will be taken from them by their own Government to
give to the King of Hanover. Instead of protecting
the English against all such exactions, our Government
actually lends its power to another State to plunder
thew.

SUN OFFICE Three o'Cloch.

We have given in another part of the paper a
portion of the lengthened correspondence carried
on fur nearly two months between Lord ASH-
BURTON and Mr. 'WEBSTER, . relative to the
Boundary treaty, arid are glad :o find that it
confirms the favourable opinion generally enter-
tained of the candour and ability with which his
Lordship conducted the negotiations. The first
letter is from Lord A.SHBURTON, dated Washing-
ton June 13, and contains a general view of the
long•continued controversy with an intimation
that he was authorised' to treat for a conven-
tional line. The American Minister in reply
states that he is duly authrised to prooceed to
the consideration of all the disputed points, and
respectfully invites his Lordship to state gene-
rally his view of the case,.and the expectation of
his Government. The manner in which this in-
vitation is accepted displays much frankness, and
differs widely from that which is too often wit-
nessed in those long, formal, and some-
times obscure State papers called protocols.

" I trust," says the Noble Lord, " that you
will have perceived in the course of my hitherto
informal communications to you, that I approach
my duties generally without any of those devices
and manoeuvres which are supposed to be the
useful tools of ordinary diplomacy. I have no
other mode of acting than an open, plain dealing,
and I therefore disregard willingly all the disad-
vantage of complying with the invitation given
me to be the first to speak." He then
goes o;a to state his proposals, to which Mr.
WEBSTER replies; and, though there is a mate-
rial difference between them at first, by argu-
ment and conciliatory negotiation they come to
an understanding on all the points contained in
the treaty. Much blame is attached by certain
writers in this country W Lord ASHBURTON for
the facility with which he yielded to the claims
of the Americans, but the correspondence affords
no ground for such imputation. His Lordship's
language is firm, but respectful. He rejects
many of the points claimed by Mr. WEBSTER,
and distinctly states that he has no power to
give them up. We refer our readers, however, to
the correspondence itself, which, though of great
length, will amply repay perusal. In one state-
ment of his Lordship every friend of peace will
cordially concur. " The territory in question,"
he says, "is that portion of it at least which
is likely to come to Great Britain by an
amicable settlement, as worthless for any pur-
poses of habitation as probably any tract of equal
size on the habitable globe ;" and he then adds
that but for the necessity of a line of communi-
cation between the British North American
provinces, we should long ago have given up the
controversy. Yet for this miserable strip of
land, containing a few acres of bog or snow, as
well described by a French writer, certain
parties by the most inflammatory language are
doing all in their power to involve the two coun-
tries in a bloody war. This is. not the feeling of
the country in general, and least of all the feel-
ing of men who have any title to the character
of Christians.

In the last Number of the Sporting Review
occur some remarkS on prize-fighting, which are
curious and worthy of notice, as showing the
marked change that has lately taken place in the
public mind, as respects this blackguard exhi-
ment of a prize-fight would have created quite
exhi-
bition. Twenty years ago the bare announce-
a stir and a sensation, not only in the sporting
circles, but generally among the people. For
days—aye, and weeks—before hand, the Papers
would have been full of the subject; sketches
and anecdotes of the combatants—particulars of
their trainers and their mode of training, as also of
their b alt
cv ehr s ,ab oitnt itoelndeesiss ,a&ne4 an emphasis that.—would have been
given
must now appear quite ridiculous; and when the
day appointed for the fight arrived, special re-
porters would have been despatched by all the
leading journals to the scene of action; thousands
and thousands of all classes from all parts of the
country would have assembled there, as at some
grand national jubilee; every hotel, inn, and
private lodging, for miles round would have been
crammed to sufocation ; immense sums of money
would have been won and lost ; and the day
would have been characteristically wound
up by drinking, rioting, gambling, and all sorts
of gross animal dissipation. Such would have
been the scene presented twenty years ago on
the advent of that Carnival of blacklegs and pick-
pockets—a prize-fight; such "the excitement it
would have created among a large mass of the
conununity ! But now, how changed the cha-
racter of the age—how infinitely improved and
elevated the tone of the public mind No longer
is there a WYNDHAM among us, to rise in the
House of-Commons, and, amid the cheers of that
assembly, formally give his sanction to the
" manly English sport of boXing." The Ring is
at a discount. Its advocates are ashamed pub-
licly to avow their predilection. In a word,
the whole thing is dead, without hope of resur-
rection. For this salutary change in the public
mind, we are indebted to the general spread of
education; and more particularly to the establish-
ment of Mechanics' Institutes, which have
wrought quite a magical
transformation in the
intellect and feelings of the working classes, by
revealing to them sources of pure and elevated
enjoyment of which they had previously no con-
ception; and showing them, not only that Know-
ledge is Power, but that it is the surest, the safest,
the most ennobling and lasting of all Power
—a guide as well as a beacon, to instruct
them what to pursue, as well as what to avoid—
a friend to assist them in their progress through
life ; to cheer them by its healing and kindly
counsels in the hour of adversity; to fit them to
enjoy prosperity in a thankful and modest spirit;
to give a proper direction to their ambition ; and
make them useful and exemplary in all the social
relations of life. We hope
the d
diffuseddistant whenstno n
g educationthe pe
people,
willp as be as universallydayisthe airn otthfe::
breathe. Not a Whig education—nor a Tory
one—nor yet a Chartist one—but an education
based on a
which shall altogether eschew partisanship; and,
looking to the welfare of the whole community,
comprehensive, catholic principle;
shall adopt as its leading aim and object,
the " greatest Happiness of the greatest
Number." An educated people can never be
otherwise than a happy and prosperous one, for
they must necessarily have a direct controlling
influence on the Legislature, which consequently
can never pass laws but such as are in accordance
with the practical experience, and are approved
by the common sense, of a thoughtful and in-
structed nation.

The intelligence from l‘ladrid is destitute of
interest. The following is the state of the Funds
-
on the 22d ult.:—The Three per Cents. were
done at 21 7-16 at 60 days ; and the Five per
Cents. at 20 for cash, and 261 9-10 at 60 days.
On the 24th one bargain-
was concluded in the
Three per Cents. at oil,
at 60 days ; another in
Cents. sold for 2611 at 60 days, and at 7A with 1
the Four per Cents., at IA; and the' Five per
premium.

We have received the Paris Papers of Friday
and Saturday. Accounts from the provinces de-
scribe the deplorable ravages occasioned through-
out Frauce by the late rains, which produced in
various districts inundations unequalled in ex-
tent since the year 1812. In several of the wine
districts (those of the Rhone particularly) the
vintage had been nearly destroyed.
The Courrier de la Gironde publishes a letter

from a Bordeaux merchant, complaining that by
the new American tariff the duties on French
brandies are raised to 250 per cent., and on
French wines to 100 per cent., which amounts to
an actual prohibition, and will deprive the two
departments of the Gironde and the Charente
Interieure of the sale of 400,000 hectolitres of
wine annually, whilst the highest duty imposed
by the same tariff on British manufactures is but
40 per cent.
MiniAers were successively returning to Paris.
Marshal SOULT reached that capital from Eu on
Thursday, M. DUCHATEL was expected in a couple
of days, and M. GUIZOT had removed from his
summer residence at Auteuil to the Hotel of
Foreign Affairs. Although the KING was not to
take up his residence at Paris before the 14th of
November., there nevertheless arrived on Thurs-
day and Friday, at the Palace of the Tuilleries'
a number of waggons laden with boxes and bag-
' gage, which were deposited in the pavilions of
Fiore and Marsan, where active preparations
were making for the reception of the Royal
Family. The Duchess of ORLEANS is to preserve
the apartments she occupied previous to the
death of her lamented husband.

The following are the only extracts of interest :
AVIGNON, SEPT. 29.—The waters began to fall
yesterday and continue to do so to-day. The lower
town will be soon clear, but there will be great losses.
Several considerable dikes have given way. The
Rhone has returned to its bed.—itioniteur, Oct. 1.
Lord Lowther, the Postmaster- General, has been in
Paris, and had a personal conference with M. Conte,
who holds the same office here, and has absolutely
convinced him of the advantages of the new system.
It is time for our Government, which talks so much
of promoting the interests of commerce, to give us on
the point in question some better proofs than words,
and made up articles in the journals, of the reality of
its professions.—La France.
The King and Queen of Prussia arrived at Neuf-
chatel on the 24th inst., and were received with great
pomp. The houses were ornamented with garlands
of flowers and green branches, and hung -with flags
of various colours. A triumphal arch was erected
at the part of the town by which their Majesties
were expected to arrive, and a grand decoration
was constructed near the Hotel-de-Ville. The
Royal carriages arrived at the triumphal arch at six
in the evening, and the King and Queen were re-
ceived by General de Pfuel, Baron Chambrier, the
Burgomaster Robert, and a numerous body of the
citizens. An address was here presented to the King,
to which he gave a most gracious answer. The cor-
tege then proceeded through the town, saluted by the
incessant acclamations of the crowd, which filled the
streets. On its arrival at the Chateau, the higher
functionaries collected in the court, and welcomed
their Majesties with loud cries of Vive le Roi I Vive
la Rein ! The guard of honour, composed of a com-
pany of Carabineers and infantry, presented arms,
and the drums beat a salute as the King alighted from
his carriage.—Galignani.
We learn from Atunich that Prince Milosch Obre-
nowitch, who had come to that city with the inten-
tion of remaining some time, suddenly left it for
Vienna on the 23d inst., on the receipt of a letter from
the Austrian capital.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO TIIREE.
The Money Market remains in the same inactive
state as to business, and Consols are firm at 92k 93
for Money, and 93 for the Account ; New Three-and-
a-Half per Cents., 1004 101 ; India Stock, 249 250 ;
Exchequer Bills, Old, 49 51 • New, 48 50 prem.
The Foreign Market has exhibited rather more ani-
mation, and the prices of Securities are a shade bet-
ter ; Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 52 ; Belgian,
103 1031 ; and Danish, 824 ex-dividend.
The quotations for Mexican are a trifle higher,
being 32* for Money, and 33 for the Account.
Some considerable transactions have taken place in
Brighton Railway Shares, but with this exception the
market has been 'flat. The price, particularly New
Shares, opened at an advance of ss. upon that of
Saturday, and have since reached 35i 354, wnich
is quite 1/. higher than on Tuesday. The South
Western have been sold at 574 ; South Eastern, 23*
234 ; the Scrip, 124 ; and Blackwall, 64.
Spanish Bonds are again the only ones which are
quoted, the Five per Cents. 154, and the Three per
Cents. 20k, which is lower.
An evening paper on Saturday reversed two figures
in the returns of the circulation, thereby making it
appear that an increase of 536,0001. had taken place
in the issues of the Joint-stock banks in England,
instead of a decrease of 3,3411. Two of our Morning
Contemporaries have copied them, and all three have
made the expansion the subject of remark, but the
statement in the second edition of The Sun was correct.
The amount of notes issued by the English joint• stock
banks, 17th September, was 2,819,7491., on the 20th
August, 2,823,000/. ; and the whole circubition of the
kingdom was, on the 17th ult., less by 514,326/., in 7
stead of being greater by 28,0001., as has been mis-
represented.
The information in the mercantile letters received
by the Caledonia is extremely meagre. Affairs are
however represented as gradually improving, with
increased confidence, and every prospect of a revival
in trade. The vessel has brought over several orders
for goods, which will of course give an activity
to our manufacturers. It is expected that the
tariff in its operation will be found not to be so prohi-
bitory as had been represented; but now that a set-
tlement of that question has been brought about,
commerce will.be placed upon a more steady basis.

Feeling interested in all matters likely to improve
and benefit Ireland, we are happy to learn from the
Leicester Express, that a deputation of the Directors
of the London and Dublin Bank had arrived at
Morrison's Hotel in the latter city, for the purpose of
establishing branches of the bank in the several com-
mercial towns of the sister island. The members of
the Board of Directors will arrived in Dublin are
Colonel Acton, M.P., C. Barry Baldwin, Esq. M.P.,
Captain Hatton, R.N., M.P., William Medley, Esq.,
Octavius Ommaney, Esq., and John M'Kenzie, Esq.,
with the London Solicitors of the Company, Messrs.
Farrar. They have been joined there by Robert
Guinness, Esq., Alderman Keshan, and their Soli-
citors for Ireland, Messrs. Symes and Keller.
ARREST OF CHARTISTS.—Besides George Julian
Harney, who carries on a small bookselling business
in Hartshead, Sheffield, whose arrest we mentioned
on Saturday, we learn from a Manchester paper that
Richard Ottley, another Chartist, who is a tea-dealer
in South-street, Sheffield, had been arrested and
carried to Manchester. Both these prisoners, like
the others, are charged with a seditious conspiracy.

ASHFORD.—SOLITII-EASTERN RAILWAY.— The rail-
way works in this neighbourhood are proceeding right
merrilie, and expectations are consider:llly raised
that the whole line to Ashford will be (lone by
November. It is said the contractors are to have a
refresher should this be the case. The omnibuses,
coaches, &c., are full each day, and the post-horses
will doubtless be happy when the Ashford terminus is
reached. All is bustling activity.—Dover Chronicle.
TheiGeneral Steam Navigation Company's Mail
Packets, John Bull, Capt. J. P. Corbin, from Ham-
burgh, and the Columbine, Capt. W. Norwood, from
Rotterdam, arrived at eleven o'clock this morning.
