LATER FROM ENGLAND

The Sylvanus Jenkins, at New York, sailed from
Liverpool on the 9Th February, and of course does
not bring as late Continental advccs us have been
already received. The Liverpool Cotton Market
was very brisk. The demand was very animated
Oh the 4th and 9th, which days the sales a.
mounted to upwards of 5000 bags, ut full prices
The cholera accounts two days later than
before received. In Sunderland there had been no
new cases for some days. The disease in that town
might therefore be considered at end. 1t had,
however, made its appearance in two or three pac-
cs not before mentioned.
Three of tho Nottingham Rioters have been
czccutcd; the excitement in the town intense,
and the scone of the most narrowing description.
Mr.. Shel (says the Standard) is to be tic Irish
Solicitor General, though all the morning papers
suppress the fact. The appointment, it is known
is disagreeablc to Lord Anglescy, but his Lordship
is himself upon the OF translation. The gal
liant Marquis is to be forthwith removed to the
Ordnance, to replace Sir James Komp, who goes
to the govcrnorship of Jamaica, vice Lord Bel
more, recalled.
The Earl Of Carlisle is TO succeed the Marquis
of Anglesey in Ireland.
Sir ohm Cam Toulouse, NJ. r. for W.stminster
has been appointed Secretary of War, III the room
of Sir Henry Paruoll.

"LEr TIE FRIENDS TIE TARIFF BEWARE.
"Mr Clay is said to have declared in tho Senate,
that Western Virginia was undoubtedly in favor of
the Tariff-What will he say, when he sees the
resolutions of the great County of Washington,
and the following proceedings of tho Citizens of
RHsell?-Mr. Clay is rushing Oh to his own ruin
and, If he had tho strength of Sampson, he
would pull down his country with him. The South
cannot, will not, tameiy acqaicsce in his abomina-
bic projcct.--He has added insult to injury. His
proposition to take off the duties Injuries, and
leave them on necessaries-to protect in any event
the privileged manufacturers at the expencc of the
great body of the consumers, ia most abominabc
mockcry."
If Mr.. Clay did so DECLARE he spoke what is no,c
in considerable degree true, and what will in n
few years, be literally true. Except tho South
West from Botetourt to Tennessee, Western vir-
ginia is very generally in favor of the Tariff; and
Southwest Virginia would form no exception, but
that particular individuals in that region, excr-
else influence tho popular mind, superior
to truth and interest How long this will be the
case, is not given to us to know; but presume
no longer than the people can be kept blnd-folde
But, what wo wished to observe upon, the
tone of this article towards Henry Clay. Mr.
Clay is crushing on his own ruin" lin supporting
the Tariff) and ''had he the strength of Sampson
would pull down his country with him." The man
who is rocking from midnight and successful in
'riS"cs, W pam Vdh Duren upon virginia, mas tho
shameless and prohgatc hypocrisy, to speak thus
of Mr.. Clay i'll connection with the Tariff! Is the
Tariff which Mr. Clay wishes to impose, as
bad, as high, the Tariff of 1928? OF that Ia
riff, was not Van Buren, the Championship fraud
ulent Championship adroitly suggested the
of passing it, while he pretended hostility to
Southern gcntlemen1 Why is Mr.. Clay to be re-
presented as pulling down his country, by q course
which it seems, has not rendered Van Buren, un-
worthy of that countrys highest honours1 Out
upon thee, hypocrite ''The South cannot, will
not, tdmely acquiesee, in his abomnable proect!"
What project? Is it ,corse project than Van Bu-
ren's Tariff of lS2Sl Does it not reduce revenue
to the standard of necessary expenditures And
is not that, by cutting off the scramble for surplus
in Congress, a vast amelioration of the Tariff
of 1892
Who does not what the venerable gentleman
is afterl That he is conscious he has forfeited the
confidence of the foes of the Tariff, by his Van
Burenism? That he is meanly seeking to recover
portion of their favor, by affecting a hatred for
the Tariff which pnrtizan of Jackson and
Van Buren,, he cannot feel, and by concentrating
upon Henry Clay, the hostility which is equally
due his own favortel Abuse of Clay, he conceives
to be the nfallblc method of proving his own Or
thodoxy, and he does not scruplc to void it upon
him, and in the samo breath, to Van Buren,,
with the SLAYER of his praise!

~ There is little news from Washington: no.

EX-MINISTER TO RUSSIA

In the discussion of tho Appropriation Bill in
the House of Representatives, the following con.
vcrsation occurred.
Ar, Stanbcrry inquired Of the Chairman Of
the Committee Of Ways. and Means, whether
tho appropriation last year made for mission to
Russia had boon expended. If il had not. and nc
was bound TO presume it had not. in az much as the
friends OF the late Minister to that Court had cx-
Prcssly and repeatedly assured tho House that he
would not accept the money, then there could be
no necessity for appropriation.
Mr.. McDufie replied, that tho Minister had
Tocei yod every cent Of tho appropriation.
Mr.. Ca rson observed, that il the gentleman
alluded TO bin, no was mistaken; he had never said
ihat the Minister wonld not receive the money!
He should have considered him very foolish If no
had refused il,

From the United States telegram.

''In n late article VIC announced that our affairs
wero verging to state of the greatest con fusio
and distraction. We little expected, in so short a
time, to find the truth of what sad acknow-
lodged by the very authors Of the present unhappy
condition of tho country. In this view we could
not but be struck with the late dobato in tho House
of Representatives, on tho motion of Mr. Adams
to DC excused from serving on tho Committee of
manufactures. MIR. Cambrelens was the first to
oppose the motion, con fessedy on the ground that
such was the condition of the country, that the
service of Mr. Adams that committee could
not be dispensed with, without endangerng the
very Union itself. What volume for reflection
is opened by this avowal; coming from that quar-
tcr-trom one so intimately copnected with the DO.
h.ical school at Albany, it proves that those who
caused the present distraction and danger, are be.
ginning to be alarmed. What a contrast this avow-
al makes with the Presidents message and the uni
form language held of late by the Globe the Rich
mond Enquirer, the Albany Argus, and all the pur
chased presses. We were taught to believe that
the country-never'was moro prosperous; the people
never more contented, or our affairs progressing
more quietly and safely than at present. To have
1t announced in the midst of this pleasing picture
that all this is but dream--that the country ia up
on the eve of convulsion, and that its safety de-
Ponds upon single individual, will, we have no
doubt, excite the astonishment of millions"
The Union dependant upon man, and that
man, John Quincy Adams! The confession made
by a Jackson man, and he Mr.. Cambrelenc-The
fears of the Telegraph are very generally enter
tanned at Washington. Forebodings on all hands,
arc dark and dismal. Scarcely man believes
that the Union will much longer endure the vie-
lent conflicts of party, the collision of irrecon.
ciable interests. Yet there seems to be but
one question, Setting aside the Georgia CASEY
which involves immediate danger; we can mean
only the Tariff, that perplexed subject which in
principle and practice, is viewed so differently by
melt, equally sagacious and wise.
Is this the doomed cause of disunon? Is the rock
ahead and i'll full view and is the skill of the pilot
unequal to save the laborng ship? Is there no mid
die ground between unqualified repeal of the pro-
tective principle and its rigorous maintenance?
There is undoubtedly; but the temper the patriotic
and healing spirit of former times, has descended
to the tomb with the of the last age
Our country is threatened with times of woe
and desolation. Every discerning man feels that
it is SO. The probability of disunion is the con.
temptation of every mind, and the theme of almost
every tongue. Who does not remember when
even to speak of it, viewed as species of
sacrilegc. And after disunion comes-,chat?-
Especially to Old Virginia! Woe, woe, VOC
unto Jerusalem!
