Tho 0reo4 COmm rcial Revolution.
The commercial and civilized world is in remarka-
bic condition. From China TO the Misssslpp-from
Hudson Bay TO Cape Horn, the commerce of the
world is in state of agitation, conflict and revou-
tlon II is not alone pressure, or panic single
cty-in a single country-ori in a single continent
The great reaction Of the nineteenth century pervades
the whole civilized and commercial world-Europe
Asia, Africa, America. None appear to escape, but
the Arabs of the desert-the negroes on the Joliba
or the Indians of the Rocky Mountains. Wherever
civilized intellectual, refined industrious, intelligent
man resides, there do we see panic, PRESSURE convul
sion, failure revolution, and all the incidents Of
guar and unwonted movement ia the onward tide of
civilization. Nor Isl alone the veto of General Jack
son-nor the Treasury crcular-nor the contractons
of the bank of England-nor the expansions of the
American houses-that have produced the present
great and Unprecedented crisis in human affairs. The
disorder in the finances of the world is general-not
partial.
At the very moment we write, the great reaction
may be in its fullest activity in London the capital Of
the commercial and civilized world. Up to our last
dates, public confidence in the frame of society was
unimpared-but let general panic seize upon the
people of England as il did upon the people of the
OUlleu III IlT5L Gays OF MAY, ana the
revulsion will sweep throughout Esrope.
Modern society is phenomenon. Peoples, and
tongues and countries and wide continents, are dvi-
ded into separate governments and distinct munci-
palilies. The American republic, the British monar-
chy, the French empire, the Russian autocracy and
all the rest of the potentates and princes of the civil
lied world are the noisy remains of the political orga-
nlzaon of the middle ages. We class among the
feudal establishments of Europe the American repub-
lie, because, its principles of action, whatever be its
names and forms, are as despotc as the empire of
Russia.
These are the outward forms of society-but there
is another organization of the civilized world, more
curious, more original, more mysterious than ever
yet has been discovered or described We allude to
the great commercial organ of the present age
the centre of which is London and the circumference
the whole habitable earth. Here is an empire more
remarkable, more unique curious than the world
ever saw. Science, art, philosophy, invention, the
utmost stretch of human genius contribute extend
lis limits and to concentrate its vast power. The
steam engine is It's Journeyman mechanc-the ocean
its hehway-the governments of the earth its agents
and servants, receiving each its bonus called "na-
tonal debt" or its perquisites called taxes" The
germs of this singular empire first seen in the
early announcements of the people of God, the He
brews ofthe middle ages, who invented bills Of ex-
change, paper money, and all the machinery and
phenomena of foreign and domestic commerce.
Look over the commercial Worldwide has been at
the head of its great movements? The Rothchilds
and their race
This is the empire Of theJews- this is the true
coming of the Messiah.
At this very moment while the whole frame of
modern commerce is rocking to its very centre il
only exhibits its singular insulated strange character
to the astonshed gaze of the world Upon the rude
system Of paper credit first invented by the Jews of
Lembardy to protect themselves from the rapacity of
the fendal chiefains of that day, the Anglo Saxon
race have created in every part of the world new
frame Of society, and vast empire which sends its
shoots into every part of the EARTH 1t is species of
new aristocracy-a grand Sanhedrn,, centreing in
London and reaching by its agents TO every quarter
of the world. During the last years the prosperity
oft his great commercial empire has caused them TO
overact and strain their principles to the utmost.
The whole world in consequence thereof is in the
midst of a commercial revolution. That it will be
severe and terrible we cannot doubt. The question
is, will the great commercial revolution cause DO
ltcal rev, luiions? Let the future reply
The morals the manners, the principles, the his
terry Of this singular empire we shall discuss on an
other occasion
kEroRM.-Judge Jones of the Superior Court, is a
philosopher man of sense, in fact "man picked
out often thousand" He is worth awhole generation
of some races, and little world Of Others The other
day he laid il down rule in his court that no more
than one lawyer on each side, should sum up in any
case. Such merciful nterposition of the power of
a Judge to stay of the greatest pressares Of the
day, deserves public dinner and general ubilation
Heretofore 10 be juror was something than to
be criminal. To suffer the lamentable infection of
long speeches, and dull pressing cummings up, was GER
tany equivalent to month in the Penitentiary or
State Prison.
Judge Jones, much for his benevolent and kind dis
position, has taken pity onthe -shewn bowels of
compassion for the nolerabe sufierings of jurors
put stop on the mouths of lawyers, and cut short
their speeches al once He deserves statue OF gold
A TouGH JoB.-The Presbyerians, Baptists, and
some other religious denominations have appointed
Thursday next, as day of fasting and of prayer to
God, to give wisdom to our legislators These good
people have undertaken tough job The old adage
says:
QUEEN Deus wilt perdere prius dementit
The Lord hath made them assess and he meant IL;
I'll, useless, therefore, praying to prevent IT,
