CONGRESS TO THE FOREGOING SPEECH.

" Stn.—Truly the public welfare advances and acquires perfection
among us, as we have just been told in the speech of the first Ma-
gistrate of the Executive Power. It is only a year since we la-
boured at our Constitution, and the new order of things has already
reached its full developemeut. The impulse which appears in the
career of free nations comes, in a great measure from the New
World—an impulse given by the general will, regulated and sus-
tained by laws well considered. like those which compose our va-
luable federal code, must keep us in perpetual progress, and must
raise our Republic to a splendour and opulence, easy to be foreseen.
We are still in our infancy. This is the first Constitutional Con-
gress of the Federation; and if we join to %hat the Government
has said what is greatest in the deliberations and labours of both
Chambers during the period of their first Session, it will be seen that
everything is important, and that everything is conformable to the
spirit and the nature of the system which regulates us.
0 Well-meditated projects for perfecting the exercise of the
Supreme Judicial Power of the Federation • for organizing the
active Militia • for defining the privileges which, by combining the
public with individual interest, secure the fruits of their exertions
to talent and industry; lot regulating the army, and preventing
disorder, or chastising it, consistent with the retrospect of the
soldier; for establishing a new port, to encuurage our commerce,
and facilitate the export of the first fruits of our nascent agricul-
ture; and—that which is of the greatest importance—fur esta-
blishing a concordat with the Apostolic See, for placing us in
communication with the Sovereign Puntiif, and for providing
pastors to the Mexican Church, which new exists in an orphan
state; such, together with the debates worthy of the zealous Re-
presentatives of this new Nation on the treaty of commerce and
friendship between us and the King of Great Britain, Whir amid
the labours and deliberations of the last five months. AB this is
important to the nation, and all is conformable to the fedl system.
Eternal honour to the Representatives and the Presidia et the
United States of Mexico, who carry forward this great people to
the highest destinies! It is true that the greatest part It ~fro-
jects, although discussed in the Chamber iu which air, Originated,
still remain under the examination of the Chamber ef Bethke. ft
was not allowable for us to precipitate the legislative tilbitek of the
two Assemblies combined to deliberate—a march as smeiestic as
slow in its very nature; nor did the law permit is to lengthen the
Session beyond the present day; but the same law width now pro-
rogues us will assemble us at its usual time, and the nation bill
again see us employed in perfecting our labours."

In one of the recent numbers of the Opeestitutiopeed
of Bogota, there is a list of persons eligible to serve as
Jurors for that department for the year 1825, from
which we conclude that the :yaws*. of Trial by Jury is
now in operation in Colombia.
Dr. Btatutscx is adding to his public services, by
undertaking to edits a great and magoileent Week, displaying
the Useful Arts and Manufactures el Great Britain, similar to
es Arts et Metiers of France. Its publication will be cont.
meuced early neat winter, and it will be subdivided so as to ac-
cord with the means of purchasers of every degree of fortune. It
will be strictly confined to the Slantdacturing Arts, and each
Branch will be so fully Wustrased, that the Engravings alone will
employ fifty Artist, dor* the Wee or four years of its proves.
sive poblication. Our Us shame, and our National Industry and
Genius, have keg demanded such a production.

Tne illness of Mr. Secretary CANNING has been much
mote serious than was at first imagined ; we are, how-
ever, happy to learn that the crisis of danger is past,
and the Right Honourable Gentleman h recovering.
The report of Mr. CANNINe'S physician yesterday, was
as follows;

" Gloucester Lodge, Sunday Morning, July 17.
" Mr. Caxiinto has passed a comfortable night, and is materially
better in all respects this morning. The acute symptoms of the
disorder are now removed, bet perfect quiet is still necessary to
complete his recovery."

On enquiring this morning, we learnt with much
pleasure, that Mr. CANNING had passed the night well,
ani that his progress towards recovery is continued
without interruption.

Letters base been received iu the City from Bengal,
of so late a date as March last. They state that our
army had taken Rangpore without resistance, and gained
some other advantages over the enemy.

The Milan Gazettes, which we received this morning,
contain a narrative of the Eat rznon's tour in Italy ; and
the following official notification, confirming the titles
of the Venetian Nobility :

His Majesty the Emperor and King, for the more

and which now makes a part of the Austrian States,

Harnburgh Papers to the 14th instant, reached ■s
this forenoon. An article from Hanover states, that
part of the mines of the Hartz, has been let by the
Government to a Mining Association in England, for
the space of ten years, for the sum of 800,000 riz
dollars. Two Agents of the Company had arrived at
Hanover, for the purpose of regulating this business.

Rio Janeiro Papers hare armed, t the end of May.

.z

1: ey announce that the Emperor of BRAZILS had is-
sued 2 Decree to facilitate the transactions of his sub:
jects with the British Colonies, lately thrown open to
the trade of all nations. He bad also accepted the offer
of the Senate to raise a monument in his honour. A
Country Judge having published an account of his
having ascertained that the people wished the EMPEROrt
to make himself abiolute, the EMPEROR issued a Decree;
suspending him from the exercise of his functions, and
ordering him to be prosecuted for " such blames:l;lr
proceed:ngs."
We have received Dutch Papers, to the 16th instant;
but they do not conceits any political news.
In another column we have given, from the Mexicari
Papers, the Speech of the PRESIDENT of the Republic,
on closing the first Session of the Ordinary Gener:•.)
Congress. The terms in which the Treaty with thr,
c-untry k spoken of, seems to refute the report that it
was unpopular with a large portion of the Congress.
L-tiers from Colombia speak of a grand ball given
by our Consul• General th-re, to commemorate the v.--
cognition of the independence of the Republic by
Great Britain.

The French Papers of Saturday have reached us.
They still continue to ascii] e victories both by sea and
land to the Greeks, which we should rejoice to find
confit med. Letters fro -n Napoli di Romania assert, that
both Russia and Austria meant to propose the eldest
son of the late King of Sweden, GUSTAFESON, as a
candidate for the Greek crown.
The Journal des Wats states, that a vessel with
the plague on board, was perfot ming quarantine , t
Marseilles.

The Aggregate Meeting of the Irish Roman Catholics
took place, on Wedne.day last, in Clarendon-street
Chapel, Dublin, when the Report of a Committee cf
twenty-one persons, appointed to draw up the plan of a
new Catholic Association, was read. The Report states
the conviction of the Committee, that the cause of the
Catholics must retrograde unless there be some perma-
nent body watching over Catholic interests; and after
declaring they will obey a statute which they cannot
respect, they recommend the plan of the new Associa-
tion, which it would be idle to deny has been prepared
for the express purpose of defeating the very law to
which they profess to yield " a dutiful and ready sub-
mission." In another column we have given a copy of
the plan of the new Association, which has been drawn
up very cautiously, every care being taken that it shall
not infringe on the letter of the Act by which the former
Association was suppressed. There is, however, much
ambiguity in the wording of some portions of the new
plan; we are told that the new Association "can and
ntay be formed merely for the purpose of public and pri-
vate charity, and such other purposes as are not prohi-
bited" by the late statute. The plan then details the pur-
poses of the Association, which we presume can or may
'be carried into effect ; there are,, however, other pur-
poses which, it is confessed, the Association is restrahted
from by the statute ; and these the Roman Catholics
are recommended to do of themselves,and seek," through
the medium of other meetings, and by the intervention
of other instruments." We must, however, refer to the
plan itself, and shall merely observe, that it was ap-
proved of by the Aggregate Meeting, and that imme-
diate steps were taken for forming the new Association.
Mr, O'Conma. and Mr. Sum addressed the Meeting
on the usual topics, and in their usual strain ; and after
the customary votes of_thanks, the Meeting separated.
