do we fear, knowing personally, and for many
years, the Individual whom our Ministers select
ed from the corps dipiemasique, for this mission,
that the chuice was not made with disecrnment,
or likely to be grateful TO the American sovern-
ment In writing on so personal and SO delicate
subject, we shall speak with tenderness and
caution.
Mr.. Jackson is the son of the Reverend Doc,.
Jackson, who,i in order TO distinguish him from
DIR Cyril Jackson, and others of the name, was
commonly called, some years ago, Consequential
Jackson. He had been tutor to the laye duke of
Leeds, then marquis of Carmarthen, and who,
when he became Secretary of State i'm 1884, first
introduced the present Mr.. Jackson into the line
OF foreign ministers. He resided as envoy, for
several years, ut Berlin, where he married Prus-
sian lady OF condition, and he remained at :that
court down to the period of time i'm 1906, .Yhen
misunderstanding arose between us and the
frussian government, on the subject OF Frede.
rick Williams acceptance of Hanover from Bo.
naparte. Since that rupture, Mr.. Jackson has
been only once employed on any foreign uegoci-
alton and oa that occasion, he was, as Is we'll
known, eminentlt uafortunate. Previous %
the exhibition against Copenhagen, Mr.. Canning
sent him with a message or notification, to the
Prince Regent Of DeHmark. We think that the
interview between the Prince and him took place
at KEEL, in Holstein and he was commonly be-
Leved to have delivered the sentiments ef the
British government, to- his royal higliness, in 40
disrespectfll or dictatorial a manne., as to have
been desired Immediately to quit the Danish ter
ri'ories. Sure we are, that such was the genera,
belief and impression, both in Germany and this
country. Whather the selection OF atsenieman
against whom such prepossessions, true or false,
were entertained, to send to such country as
America, was judicious, we will leave the pub
lie to decide. Every thing Cancellation, suavity,
anu amrnity of manners, were Indispensable
Mr. Jackson possesses capacity, experience and
ienacity but his deineanor is not calculated 10
attract or disarn. He is, on the contrary. firm,
unyeidng, sometimes caustic and repulsve.-
We trust, however, that the American ncrociati.
OH may yet assume favorable aspect.

MARQUIS WELLESLEY.
From tie London Courier of January

From the London Courier of January 3.
Ii is we'll known, that in addition to the
other serious charges which we're brought
forward against this nobleman, for his con
duct in India, he was considered as having
done more than any of his predecessors in
annihilating the freedom of the press thro'-
out that large portion of his majesty's do
minions; in proof of which, we submit 70 our
readers the following Asiatic edict of
his Lordship, for the regulation. or. more
correctly speaking, the annihilation of every
vestige of the liberty of the press---An edict
which exhibits principles of the most des-
potic kind, are totally inconsistent with the
British constitution. and which must excite
in the bosom Of every Briton, the utmost in
dignation.
