BG; the master topic, which now absor hs
almost all at our attention, is the fate of South
.fmerica. The meeting ofihe European Com
grrss is anticipated with the most pow rrtt,l
emotion. Ii is an ''ominous conjunction of
" Holy Allies" which with 80 fear of change,
perphxes" all free governments. The ac-

Congress for the catastrophe Of the South

important result How can il be supposed
that England would decide AT once a question

Tile London Courier of The Slst, contains

In fact, we do not hesitate 10 state our CON
vIctlons from the Information we have re-
ceived, that the policy of & Britain is tn
same with that which Is recommended to the
U. States, by the President in his last Message
II Spain by her energies can reconuucr her
former colpnies, be il so. England will keep
aloof But should the Holy Allies inter-
frre IN the contest, in order to force down
Their legitimate principle upon ihi, coniinpnt

their neutrality; but will say In them Thus
Jd, and no further" We not only believe
this policy will be the same hut concurrent
with that of The u. States: that the British
ministry have made communication or their
views, and those cf ihe Allied Powers to the
President of the u. States.
We have no doubt, that Mr.. Niles s msta-
Ken M his superstition that there is nothing in
the late dispatches which has induced the
President To throw himself upon the nation
The time has not vet arrived perhaps for
laying Ines" facts officially before the world
hut Of their existence we entertain no man
ner OF doubt. We suspect that Mr. Rush's
dIs'"'ch"s contain in them "secrets worth
knowing"
