RUSSIA.

hOOolhs
The English papers have been making merry
with the pretensiops of Russia to the whole cont
nent of America north of 49.--One of the papers
concludes as follows in noticing the correspondence.
1.-The old story in Joe Miller of the knave who
bargained with mercer for piece of lace to reach
from ear 10 ear. and then set up claim for piece
which could reach from that which was left on his
head its fellow, which was nailed to the pilIory at
York. is scarcely less honest than the assumption of
tha coast from the place where Behrng landed, to
where Tchirlcoh's bones were driven ashore. The
only reason which makes the discovery of an unciv
iii ed land ground of right 10 the possession of it.
is that the dscoyerer of lands open to the civil
lied world new mine Of advantages, from which il
lis just that he should derive peculiar though not the
only, benefits. But NJ. Tchiricoff, we conceive, con
erred no such advantage on the civilized world, by
losing himself IN the 10th degree OF latitude (if in
deed there be any truth in the story.) which should
justify the Emperor Alexander in seizng all the land
1000 miles to the northward oft.
Another very curious assertion of Mr.. Peter Po-
letica is, that because Russia is in possession of the
coast of Asia, and in claim to the coast of America
she has right to treat all the intervening ocean as
close and consequently to shut out the vessels
of foreign states from as much of it as she peases
1t happens that this ocean is 1000 miles broad but
this Nj Peter Poe,ica says cannot invalida tie the
right Really, if England were to follow up the doc
trlne OF Mr. Peter Poletca, she might put up claims
which would stop the highway of nations pretty eff
ectualy. AS we have possession of the coast of
Hindostan and the continent of New Holland, we
might treat the Indian Ocean as shut sea. Hav-
ing also the west coast of Ireland and the coast Of
Labrador, we might pale off pretty strip Of sea on
the Atlantic Ocean. Or France and England might
Join together to stop entirely the. navigation of the
Channel. But the advancement of this right, on
the part Of Russia, is the strange because her
approach to the Ocean, both from the Baltic and
Black Sea, might be entirely stopped, by an exer-
ton OF the principle which she so boldly asserts
7 1t will be that the correspondence has pro-
! duced no satisfaction on either side On the Ameri
can part there are the falrest the most modest,
but the frmesl claims. On the Russian part there
is thick SLAYER OF hypocrtcal pretenstion to mod
Grafton, abundance of preparation ofa peaceabe dis
position, but no approach even to fair discussion,
and no offer 10 leave the matter TO arbitration or
adjudication on any known principles. America as
the right oil her vessels t. navigate as they
have been accustomed to do; Russia hints that they
will lie seized What this will lead to is impossible
n present to say still! less to know how the cross
claims of this country to the disputed coast is to be

From Me Ae4y York Statesman June. 10

Peeuniary En6arrassmeaf.--W learn from an
intelligent gentleman, who has just returned from
Boston, that the pressure Of the times and CONNER
cia distress, which have lately been felt in that city
are greater than have been experienced at any peri
cd since the revolution. Our informant showed us
la list of failures comprising twenty five or thirty
houses, some of which failed Tor large amounts.
AT this morning meeting of the merchants, the
whisper went round, who had stopped payment, and
who were expected to stop during the day. The
banks had become alarmed, and refused to discount.
and TO add to their distress, the notes of the banks
in the vicinity of Boston would be received in 10
|other way, than deposites of specie or Boston
bills. The New England Bank is said 10 have ac-
|quired unlimited control over the credit of the
|ciy and its doors were thronged with applicants for
current money in exchange FOR notes from The
'neighbouring banks.-Heavy losses had been sus-
tanned by the partial failure of the Bangor Bank, in
which several of the Boston merchants were inter-
Iested We are sorry to learn that period of so
much distress, when there should be mutual SYM
pahy in mutual suffering there is apparently strife
between New York and Boston,, " which can do
each other the most injury" II is said that specie
is constantly passing between the two Cities obtain
led by runners npon the banks and the retaliation
lis some times so rapid, that on one occasion gen-
|tleman remarked, 1T would be unnecessary to
knock the hoops off the kegs containing the dollars,
las the specie was destined to be returned immed-
|ately to the place whence it was drawn" We hope
this feeling will not become general, and that il will
soon subsde altogether.

We are indebted 10 friend for the following
commercial letter:
New ORLEANS, MAY 13-We have at length To
notice decline in our cotton market, which pro-
misses to be permanent.
There has been so little doing during the last fort
night that the prices not sufficiently established
to enable us to give precise quotations. but have
been offered FAIR clean and good cotton at from fif-
teen to seventeen cents, which at that time would
have commanded seventeen to twenty--and the in
ierlor qualities in proportion, say from ten 10 twelve
cents. AT the same time, freights have advanced
considerably, SD having been given for cotton to
Liverpool, and 1-2 asked.
We annex statement of our exports and arrv.
ais OF cotton and tobacco this season, from which
you Will perceive, that notwithstanding the cry of
short crop in the early part of the season. our ar
rivals have already exceeded the total exports of last
season, by at least three thousand bales The ouan.
tity yet to arrive is of course uncertain, but it must
be considerable both of Louisianas and of AIaba
mas and Tenessees, and we should think cannot be
less than twenty thousand bales Much more TO-
bacco is also expected. We believe that there has
not since the late war, been so much produce col
lected here at one time as at present. Storage ha:
risen from 81 1-2 cents to dollar per hogsheat
tor tobacco; and large quantity of produce will
probably remain over till next season.
Exchange on England 9 10 per cent. premium
On the northern states, for bills at sixty days. pal
10 one half per cent discount.

STAGE RAGING.

Another distressing incident, in consequence o!
this shocking practice, has occurred between Al.
bany and Johnsontown, IN. W In entering Sche-
nectady, the stage overlook the opposition line, and
undertook to pass the opposition carriage. One Of
the hind wheels came off, and the stage was overset
full of passengers, all of whom are injured. Mr.
Coon had one of his fingers torn in pieces, and his
wrist badly bruised. The amputation of his wrist
was found necessary-spasms succeeded and ter
minated his life on the 9TH inst.
The friends of the deceased, as the .Ne7o Yo,1
Statesman suggests, ought Immediately to COM.
mence prosecution against both driver and owner.
A strange torpor has seemed TO prevail on this sub.
lect; and the evil increases, as the offenders are
allowed to transgress with impuniy We have
heretofore had repeated and melancholy occasion
to notice this subject. Ratt. Patriot.

WE may Irvine the green wreath round the brow
Of the brave,
We may tread in the footsteps of glory,
And fame from oblivion record may save,

Yet, wha. is the wreath which the world holds so

Will it free us from care for the morrow?
Will il dry the big tear-drop on misery's eye;
Or soften the throbbings of sorrow?
No! not in this world can we look for relief,
From the bright gilded pages of story;
For the wound that is made by the arrow of grief,
Is ne'er healed by the bandage of glory.
But to brighten the clouds which may shadow our

And the light that is shed by Religions pure rays,
