If these may be taken as the expectations generally
entertained by the American people, we apprehend that
brother Jonathan is doomed to experiencte a trifling
disappointment. If the important questions referred to
are to be settled in this off-hand style by rord Ash-
burton, as the representative of Sir Robert Peel's
government, then the people of England will h.ave just
cause to say, that their country and their so vereign
have been dishonoured before the face of the world, to
appease the blustering swagger, and gratify the N why
of the people of this model Republic. Lord Ashbu. rton,
we trust, will never submit to stigmatize the destoie-
tion of a piratical vessel, in the act of levying war ui 101/
British subjects as "an act of gratuitous insolence" or
any other than an act of strict legality and justice an d
certain we are that the British parliament and people-
will never sanction such an adjustment of our diffe-

The same remarks apply to the absurd anticipations
of our contemperary, with respect to the settlement of
the Creole case and the right of search. Great Bri-
tain will not, we are confident, even to secure the fa-
vour of the American nation, which can only be done
by flattering its vanity, yield one step from her present
dignified position upon these questions. The conces-
sion said to be made by Lord Aberdeen is pure fudge !

and every of its 800 items, from " asses" foreign and
colonial, the first of the list, to "lees" of wine, the
last;—items, by the way, peculiarly characteristic of
the pristine and ulterior condition of that fallen
party. The young donkey, alternately gambolling and
restive, vicious and stupid, how excelllent a type of
Whiggery in its day of elevation ! The settlings of
the beer or the wine cask—the " lees"—the dregs—
by the deposit of which the body of the generous
liquor itself is purified—h'iaw apt a type of that decedsed
and wrecked faction, by whose prostration society is
purified and invigorated ! For a time we shall be re-
lieved of its gentle plainin gs upon all the fertile themes
which this tariff has suggested, and the world will be
permitted to go on in its usual round, without being
astounded every alternate hour by some explosion of
Whig incapacity—some specimen of the extraordinary
ignorance, upon political sribjects, of this inflated an d
pompous party. _ _ _

himself with tales of sorrow, or with statistical facts in rela-

of this kind should be viewed in connexion with certain
principles, and with reference to its bearing on society gene-
rally. We approach the government calmly and expound
our views, and we say, " If you will satisfy us that the re-
medy which you are about to propose shall be co-extensive
with the disease, we will promise to take no step which shall
have the effect of embarrassing'he Government." The posi-
tion which the right hon. baronet held had not been properly
considered. His (Sir R. Peel's) was not so much the tri-
umph of party as the well marked expression of.public opi-
nion. (Cheers and "Oh !") Reference had been made
to the majority who supported the right hon. baronet. He
(Mr. Cardwell) thought that the circumstance of the right

was a subject of congratulation. , The right honour-

The tariff has passed ; lout not without a record

ing left to the world of the opinion, with respect to it,
of that profound statesman,. Lord John Russell, as the

representative of the collective wisdom of the Ex-whig
administration. His lordship is happy, and yet he is
sorry ; he is pleased with what has been done, and yet
displeased because somethin g has not be done. On
cheese and butter no reduction haS been made. .On
coffee all the reduction requiured to swamp that odious
body--the West India body---has not been made. On
sugar, the
decrease of the differential duties necessary
to insure the conversion of the colonies of Great Bri-
tain into deserted swamps, amd to afford a stimulus to
the lash of the foreign slave—owner, has net been made.
The duty upon foreign corn, is at this moment just tiro
shillings per quarter above the duty fixed upon by Lord
lohn Russell, and therefore..the " corn monopoly" has
