For many years the Bonr6oa family were
considered in Europe the most ndolcnt aud
profliga,e race which ever sat oo throne,and
the whole power of Britain was almost con-
tiuually employed TO humble some one branch
OF this family. Now this same family is re-
instated in power in both France and Spain,

A London paper of Seplemser says.
T" A list was on Wednesday posted up at Lioyd's
containing Melancholy Catalogue of no fewer than
eight hundred and senty fre ships which have been
taken by the Americans since the commencement OF
the war"
Now the truth is, chat nearly double the a.
bove number of British vessels have been ta-
taken by the Americans since the war--and
it Is probable that as many more will b. taken
before another year rolls rount-ali which
will form " Melancholy Catalogue" indeed

with the British we are not only successful,
but that our success is .at,cnd' d with snch NJ
fie loss on ous part, and aucho great one on
the part of the enemy. AS in former actions,
30 in the late one between the Wasp and the
Avon, TIE conquest was not only easily but
cheaply achieved, our loss being 5nt two kill
led and one wounded while the loss ot the
enemy, from their own accounts, was above
forty killed and wounded. or more than ten
times rs great loss as ours. What vast
disparity is here Well may We exclain
with the Poet
"The naughty flag Of England,
That wavd thousand years,

Which on our flag appears
Our stars have croand the Eagle,
And our stripes have ashed the foe,
As they sweep DER the deep,
Where the stormy tempests blow"

of them, tread close on the heels of the ma

nusilanimoas as to sit down qmctiy and su6-

what appears to be the object OF the Hartford
Convention, an indehendent government for
.New- England. 1t they do, they must think
the Republicans possess base aud dastardly
spirits indeed, alter they themselves have set
the example, in opposing every measure of
the National Government -" Sauce for tie
goose, makes good sauce for fhe gander:" |,
will be strange indeed, if they do not find the
minorities IN the " New- England S.aseS," as
much opposed 10 their measures, as they have

PATRIOTISM.

It is somewhat wonderful that
10 these evil times Of toryism aud
corruption /; there Should be so much
patriotism. The people Of the west,
fight from patriatism--the people
Of the east lend their money to the
Treasury, from patrioiism--and e.
very thing that lives and moves un-
der the sun OF democratic light and
heat. lives and moves by this great
and invigorating principle. We are
inclined to suspect. however, that
the patriotism OF these patriots, is
soiDewh hat like that Of the Irish Re-
cruii who was willing to iight for
the Crcwn, or for half CrO1cn
either! The patriots OF the woods
are ready so fight for free trade and

indemniied for all losses aud priya-
tons which they may suiser in hor-
ses, hogs. Sc. besides the bounty
