FoRmGN.-New York papers acknowl-
edge the receipt of Liverpool dates to the
3lst May. The news is of some impor-
Itance.
The Jewish disabilities bill was read a
second time, after a majority of more than
2 to l. Strenuous opposition was made to
its second reading.
May 2lst, an immense meeting of man.
ufacturers and farmers consisting of up
wards of $4,000 persons, was held at Bir-
mingham to petition for relief from oppres-
sive burdens. Three petitions were unan-
Iimously adopted--one to the king, repre-
senting "that all confidence in his males
tvs ministers, has been sadly betrayed"
and praying their dismissal from his
|majesty's councils-the other two to the
house of commons praying the abolition
lot the corn laws and reduction of taxes
In reference to the meeting, the London
Traveller remarks:
at is impossible to contemplate the una
nimnity and determined spirit of this great
|assemblage, without coming to the convic-
ton, that unless a change of ministry
bl uiluItt
frghtful to look forward to, must inevita-
|blytake place. The government has Civ
en- a giants strength to mere dwarf, and
upon their heads rest the consequences Of
allowing organized bands of people to O.
|verawe the executive. 1t is quite clear
the demands of the country for relief from
Ia pressure of Taxation, are so overwhelming,
that no administration can now hold office
without resorting to an immediate reduc
ton of the public burdens, in order to en-
list the moderate men to oppose the de-
signing acts of the party of the movement.
The reported peace between the Porte
and Pacha of Egypt, has taken place.
The London Times commenting on this
fact and the paci6cation of Holland and
Belgium, says:
"Itis with the greatest satisfaction that
we can announce preliminary treaty for
securing the peace of the west. The &C
counts from Constantinople to the Sth inst.
contain an assurance of the concession by
the Sultan of those points which the vice
roy of Egypt had originally demanded as
the fruits of his conquest, and the condi-
ton of his retreat"

which the English and French embargoes

MEssRs. EDIToRs: saw in your paper,
some time since, a communication signed
"WABAsH,'' making some, as thought, very
just inquiries relative to the Wabash appro-
Prlation. | was then much surprised to
learn that the law of the last session rela-
tive to that appropriation had been, in no
sense, complied with-that the money had
not been paid over, as authoritatiuely requir-
ed, nor any reason assigned why SO plain "a
duty was neglected. am still more sur
prlsed, gentlemen, to learn that the delin
quency still exlsts-that, though the people
by their representatives., have said that this
duty shall be perfermed-that treasure, be
longing to us, and to us alone, now deposit
Ell In the hands of single individual, a
IPuolac serDant, whom we may command, shall
be deposited in a safer place, to wit, in our
treasury, and applied as we direct; no dis
position has been shown BY that public ser,
want TO comply with so plain requisition, or
to explain course of conduct which, I'M
explained, leaves him liable to an mputa-
ton favorable to no man.
Why is this? Have not the people right
to ask, and that with emphasis, "Why is
this?" We have suffered much from the
deialcations of public officers; q make nc
allusion to judge Wilson,) dozens among us,
or who have gone out from among us, are
fattening on our spoils-.-men who by gross
violation of trust, by embezzlng the treasure
which the people, in their confidence, have
entrusted to them, have exhausted our re
sources, saddled US with loan of hundred
thousand, and laid US under tribute for the
support of eastern nabobs. We have suf
fered much in this way, and it is time diff
ierent state OF things was brought about
( Is judge Wilson under any doubt as to the
duty required of him? Is not the law plain
so plain that he who runneth may read
or does he entrench himself behind the re
Election that, as he is judge, he may ex
pound the law himself, and practice upon
that exposition long before its Interpretation
has been made matter of legal investiga
ton? The law-the testimony-let US look
moment at that. In the first section OF
the law relative to the Wabash appropri;,-
ton, find this clause: "That the governor
be, and he is hereby authorized to receive
said money, to be applied to the current ex,
Penses OF the state, from Mr.. Wilson, who
is authorized and required to pay ouer the
same" Can there be any doubt about the
construction of this clause? Does it not
contain plain direction, and require plain
duty? Certainly it does, and no man can
so torture or misconstrue the language as to
make it ambiguous or intricate. Again in
the 4th section,it is enacted, ''The said Will
lam Wilson is hereby authorized to retain
lon paying over said money INTO the treasury,

HE TOUR ENDED. The president and suite,
as we learn from the Globe, arrived at Wash
ington, the 18th. The fatigues of the journey
and the'insdlubrity of north eastern climate
were found to impair rather than recruit his
strength. and induced him to forego the antci-
pated pleasure of visit as far north as vas

character, which his biographer may deem
himself fortunate, if he can explain it to
have been compatible with either the du-
ties of social life, the sacredness offriend-
ship, or the requirements of patriotism,
unless he offers as an apology, partial de-
rangement.
In the letter. in which the deceased, ac-
knowledged that he had made misstate-
ment, with regard to the conduct of Mr..
Lowndes- on the tariff, he assigned as a
reason f5r the error, the disordered state
of his mind, arising from the exciting me-
dicine, which he was compelled to take to
sustain life!
I have, perhaps, expressed myself harsh
", inconsistent with that charitable feel
ing, which alb should possess who are
threading upon ashes, under which the fire
is not yet extnguished; if so, to express
our conscientious opinions. is sometimes to
do wrong.
sWhy draw his frailtes from their dread
. abode For who can tell in the close al
lance between reason and madness, which
were so strangely mixed up in his charac-
ter. how much his actions and words par
took of the one or the other? Where they
alternate, or where one predominated, oil
where they mingled their influence, moi
in the embrace of love, but in the strife
of n1estery. Oh, how much he may have
struggled with his mental alterations and
wanderngs, and felt that they were errors,
and yet struggled in vain. His spirit, like
the Great Eye of the universe, may have
known that clouds and storms, beset it, and
have felt that it was contendinp with dis
case and the film of coming death, yet it
hoped at last to beam forth in its bright
ness.
The day drags on, though storms keep
