AaaeE AH tue sMcfonceg 01 blood and treasure which the brave Poles have made, we fear there is little ErOuSd to hope thas they destined regain their liberty. Had they received mOiey of the assistance from the gOuernm.eRes of France and Great Britain which beir people were disposed tO bessOw, the ePi iaPh upon the tomb of expiring liberty in that devoted country would not now have to be written. This cOldness on the part of the French government may land should be at all surprised at such eveHs another revolution in that country the PrOstra- ION of the present ministry. and the dethrOnemeOt O Louis Philip. The scenes of ftumult and bOOdshed in Europe may not yet have passed.

 The following paragraph we copy from the New Haven Register of Saturday:
 The convention at New York emded their sitiings on Tuesday the lst inst being the 9th day of the .ion and aer an appropriate address from he Pres-
 
 Schroeder, adjOurned sine de. The central commit tee have power call another convention in 1882, # they deem is expedens. Upon the whole we regard this one of the most important assemblies which has beeH convened in our country since the adoption of the Constiiutiop. Composed of men of every de- par,ment of0dusty and profession representing thir are, with the great American System, and although delegated by their feow citizens, convened at ihei' expense, to consult upon the great cardinal In- terests of the American people, to receive and com nfnr fO iRe that deep determiDatio which pervades the commu- nty mainian and protect the interests Of domestic industry The best informed men were utterly aston ished ai the normaiion there eIiced, relative the resources and productions of our country,-and we venture to say. that nothing has ever. in 70 short time, produced such aston ishing develOpemenis, or dress of the People of the U.

Various committees were raised on the produce and manufactures of our most important n.nierals To Eve tune Tor the collection ss report the central committee who will publish such parts Of the various reports as they deem pulp ic interest.
