rapidly in the French ports, having refer

considerable fall in the French funds, and
says 1t is sufficiently accounted for by the
news Of the preparations going OH at Brest
and Toulon, which seem to be only pre-
ludes to other arrangements semlotiicially
announced. The change o. the Portuguese
ministry, which comes so unexpectedly, to
render the Spanish question more compile
Gated, has also contributed to this result. But
the principal cause is the change Of the
language in the English journals, by which
it seems to be doubted at London whether
the quarrel between France and America
can be amicably settled
Nj. Pageot, the French Charge at Wash

notice, that his government has ordered
him home.
There is n rumor at Washington that the
President is on the eve of sending war
message to Congress; but it is thought he
may hold up until Mr. Barton arrives. What
he will then do we are unable to conjecture

The following communication, TO be
followed by another next week, comes from
firm and consistent Antimasonic Farmer
whose opinions are held in high estimation
TO THE Editor OF THE JOURNAL.
Can it be that the antimasonic party is
resolving into its original elements? Is the
cement of sound and uncompromising
principle, too sparingly diffused to give CO.
heson and consistency to its multiplied
parts?
One editor in Massachusetts, who has
fought manfully in the cause of antimason-
ry, has for some time past openly declared
that Van Buren, is n good enough antimason
for him. Another in Vermont who has
long been champion of the good cause,
has recently shown symptoms of WEAKNESS
in doing good, and is evidently about to
eschew in practice, whatever he may pro-
Jess 10 the contrary, the doctrines he has
heretofore so perseveringly advocated.
For man to call himselfa political anti
mason, and at the same time support Martin
Van Buren, for any legislative or executive
office, is as palpable an absurdity, as for one
to declare himself true Israelito while
kneeling at the altar OF Baal, or avow him
self a Christian, while in the same breath
he proclaims Mahomet as the true prophet
OF God. Has not Van Buren, formally ack-
nowledged himself to belong 10 the Andrew
Jackson school of politicians? Now if
some arc so devoid of shame as to claim as
their political motto, 'The supremacy of
the Laws and at the same time support for
the Office Of Chief Magistrate an ,.,tra of
she aforesaid school, it is to be hoped they
will so far honor the human intellect, as
not to expect so great concentration of
credulity in any ore set of brains, as to gain
credit with cinge individual for either
honesty or consistency.

STATE CONVENTION.

We invite special notice to the call OF
the Antmasonic State Committee for q
STATE CONVENTION, to be held al
this place on the last Wednesday in Feb.
ruary. We trust the call will he responded
to with alacrity from every quarter. The
grave importance Of the questions to be
determined, warrant us in expecting full,
an overwhelming meeting. Hundreds of
the Antimasonic Farmers who have not
found it convenient, heretofore, to attend
conventions in sumner, will not excuse
themselves now. The People ought to be
distinctly heard through their delegates.
Then we shall be prepared TO act harmo-
nlously and effectively. For ourself, tho
we have our preferences on the matter of
the Presidency, we shall doubtless think it
our duty to bow in Difference to the voice
OF the majority. We know too much of
the temper of Vermont Antimasons to feel
distrustiul of their integrity, or to doubt
their determination to act for the greatest
good of the greatest number. Ifthere be
any discrepancy of views and determine
tons among antimasons as to the future,
there is certainly no improperly in having
the matter perfectly understood. We wish
for ourselves no new livery. The flag of
nntimasonry is the brightest and best on
the field. Once scorned and dshonored
by the multitude, it now commands the
homage and respect of all.

den our hearts by scattering the portcntous
clouds which hdNvslnS. cars blookened

Why will not the real friends of the
cause arouse themselves, shake off their
drowsiness, and infuse new life into the
ranks of our party, which, though compar-
atively small, and isolated from all other
parties, yet has for its rallying point, prin-
ciples, so essential to the perpetuity of all
free governments, that unless they ere long
become dominant, despotsm or anarchy
will inevitably erect its throne in this once

Of wrath. AT certain stage in everv
great moral revolution a crisis must come,
The crisis takes place precisely at that
point, where the moral agencies become
so manifest in the abundance of their re-
suits, as to leave no hopes to the antago-
mist powers ofevil, save in immediate, en-
tire, utter resistance. When the public
mind begins to be agitated by the spirit of
inquiry when facts are arguments, and
appeals have their due effect in the SUPER
Involvement of a general mistrust that all
is not right; when sufficient light has
been thrown upon error to reveal some of

of lies trembles. and is " filled with great
wrath" for he fears that Ibis time is
short" Prejudice beholds the period rap
idly approaching, when hey disenthralled
victim shall rejoice and be exalted in the
blessed light Of that wisdom which COM
eth down from above and is without par
TALLY and she crashes with her teeth.
Selflove is enraged at the near prospect of
the falsi6cations of its predictions, and the
demonstration of its folly The croaking
lovers of old times and usages quake with
great fear at the threatened demolition of
vice grown grey. Interest is reminded
that the hour is nigh when the merciess
hand shall no more gather wealth, and
when conserving unto injustice shall reap
no reward but abiding infamy. Pride,
prejudice, conservatism interest, yield not
without struggle. They assemble their
forces, laying hold ofthe vilest, enlisting
the wealthy, arrayirg the mig hty-and
strike them all upon the issue of one con-
test. 1t is their final struggled vast,
but vain effort to arrest the progress of
Iight-to stay the march of truth-to es-
tabIish on perpetual foundation the king
dom of darkness.
Missionaries then reason correctly,
when they assume the fact of persec ution,
as an evidence of the rapid advancement
of the cause of Christ and abolitonists
with propriety adopt the same mode Of
reasoning. Persecution does not dampcn
their ardor, for it is the very argument
of their success, they were unfelt, they
would be unDoticed. If they had not
aroused the public conscience, popular
vengeance W ould not have kindled against
them. The very fact that they are defam-
ed, prosecuted, prescribed, proves in
their case that their appeals have not been
in vain, but have broken through the ap-
athy that had settled down upon American
| feeling towards American slaves.-Phi-
