RELATIONS WITH ENekANp.-The accounts frem
England, received by the George Washington, have
given great and additional satisfaction, the facihc
and concliatory tone Of England towards tins coun-
try, in all the principal points.o controversy invov
ed in mutual relations The feelings OF the Ang-
lsh ministry, shewn in Parliament, are as friendly
as those Of the people and the press of England
There can be doubt now of speedy termination
to the Boundary Question such principles of give
and take will adjust the differences not only on that
point but will have great influence in qaietin: the
border spirit, and restoring the good feelings be-
tween their colonies and population along the
Canadian line. The bene client conduct of Sir George
Arthur in liberating the misguided young men that
had been deceived into the foray of las: year by that
rascal Mackenzie and his ceadjutors, will produce
small effect, while the magnanimity, forbeaIancs
and public spirit of Sir John Coborne and the regu-
lar British army under his command, will unite In
the great purpose Of preventing two nations, bound
together by every tie Of human existence, to pre-
their relations of peace and amity inviolate-
On frontier, Col Worth is still on the ground,
quieting the disorders the Vernon: line, and,
knowing his talents and disposition, we have no
doubt he will succeed, as General Scott so signally
did on the Maine frontier.
The position of this country with Europe is ma
terialy changed from what it in former years BY
the power Of steam in navigation, we belong to the
same family of nations which is formed Of England,
France and all those countries where free nstitn-
tons prevail, in all western Europe war between
any OF these nations would &c against civilza-
ton and reform We do net believe that any rupture
take place among them, unless it be stirred
up by the intrgues Of the despotisms of Eastern
Europe. At this moment England, both government
and people, would go to war with Russia than
with any other country. Russia is to the free gov
ernments Of western Europe, including the United
States as branch Of the system, what the Persian
empire was to Athens, Lacedemoa, and the other
states Of Greece, in the age of Miltades and The.
mistoces. If they quarrel among themselves they
will be overrun by northern despotism; if they pre-
serve peace, they will carry civilization and liberty

This is precisely what took place in regard to the

been publishing just such paper pub

whig party, because they put Hoxie their ticket.
For this piece of independence, all the wing papers
Of Wall street came forth, denounced us as i'm

and to advertising in it, Not aword Of politics
all was for morals-although, privately and
publicly, there sot a single editor or politician
among them that could present a charac ter so unsu

This miserable trick Of such immacu atcs as Noah
Hale 4 Co, did not weigh feather with Us, or in
this city. The great Of the people here are in

Wing tries TO raise the same hypocritical cry

is that IT dared TO publish the facts on both sides
