LoNnoN, fhursdiy, Jan. II,
American papers. containing ihlof-
nation Of very. serious importance,
were ssnt on shoe by the American
frigatc john Adams, which passed
Daver Oh 1'aesday, apa were received
in iowa Yesterday afternoon. II is
understood that gentleman, chare.
ed with dispatches for the American
envov, at Paris, had been previously
landed on the coast of France. The
American frigate did not, as was ex-
.pected, make for the Thames, but
shaped her course for Holland. Our
readets will perceive, IL the extracts
snat we have given, with what ran
coroas recruitment the conductof Mr.. !.
Jackson HIS inspired the predominant
party in America. Even the very
senate have abandoned the language
|of diplomacy, nos hesitating to declare
that CT Mr.. Jackson, in his corrsspou-
dence, insolent." The introduction
OF bill TO '' autilorise the president
to send out OF the country offending
Iministers," is measure evidently
proposed under the impulse of sudden
irritation. we cannot see the neces-
sity, the importance, or the utility Of
such a bill.
! The budget of SIr. Gallatin is
lam .nsabIe proof OF the departure Of
America from the principle of ccono..

The seeds of corruption have, w.

Even the remarkable events that hay.

the desPicable and ruinous SYSTEM Of
borrowing. For che last seven years
tae prosperity OF America--the in.
crease of her revenue-and tito ex.

of nualtriumph. Yet, in 1910, with
the example Of England be fore her eyes
America is about to open the fooG
gates OF corruption to g Loan moi
gers ~ As YET, the emigrations from
England have been chiefly from those
classes who could no longer exist in
their naive land, in consequence of
the effect of this very system, which
is about to be adopted in Americs.
Farewell, long, an eternal farewell.
to the happiness of that land in which
the funding, taxing, banking, Iobbing,

bloodshed and slaughter TO peace, WHY
