debted for their recent western defeats.
The wings, like the Bourbons, forget nothing and
learn nothing; mere sectional TOPICS robbing Peter
to pay Paul, never succeed. General impulses and
generous sentiments alone carry the masses The
people Of New York would sooner, generous i'm
pulse give the whole ofthe public lands than per-
init dirty politicians to belile their nature by sell
fish scrambles. Agrarian doctrines, from the very
generosity and disinterestedness involved in thcm
are naturally more popular sentiment among the
masses than avaricious selfish, monopollzing prn
siples.
The public land question is not yet fully under
stood. To give away the whole of the public lands
gratuity would in the long rum be better for the
Atlantic States than to hold upon them like mi
ser monopolst to the day Of judgment The faster
the west is settled, the greater New York will be-
come. The miserable pittance of a few millions that
the share of New York in the public lands may now
be estimated, would be surpassed BY single years
CONNIE rcal intercourse after they shall have been
sold even at a cent per acre.
Mr.. Clays notions on the public lands have des-
troyed the whg party in the west and Will sson pro-
duce the same result in the east. The only mode OF
settlement is thisiet the general government assume
all the public debts of the Atlantic states, as 1t dad
the oldrepoiutiona,y debts, and then there can BE no
objection to the plan of distributing the putlic lands
TO oil those tcesten states tohich such lands Sre
situated This is the only mode of settling the Pub-
lie land question 1t involves principles of gensro-
sity on beth sides.
DANIEL WEBSTER IN ENGLAND.-It is quite anu
sing to see the exstaces into which the eastern pa
pers are thrown at the attentions which the great
Daniel Webster has received from Of the passe
nobility and faded gentry of England. These editors
seem to think that the talents Of Mr. Webster were
never fully placed beyond doubt till the English
nobility threw up their greasy caps and sung out
90 hear him!'
Hush-a-baby! hush-a- baby-by! Jim Grow, Of il
lsstrious memory. received his first visit to Eng
from the nobility, too--twice the amount
Of the attentions dinners sores &c. that the great
Daniel Webster has done. Even the immortal Van
who plays with lions old maids do with
kittens, has far outstripped the eastern crater.
Queen Victoria, only as passing compliment, per-
nitted Mr.. Wesbter to be introduced to her at
evee-but she waited herself on the everlasting Van
Amburgh, and held a conversation with him the
pest method of feeding lions, tigers jackals, and
'tIer delicate poultry. She had even painting of
taken, feeding his animals, and exhibited it at
he Royal Exhibition. After this, let the eastern
ditors shut mp.
MORE MssEr.-The Reverend Mr.. Green, Nor
aan preacher from the West, formerly a msthodist,
preparing several melancholy addresses, affecting
amphlets, and heart-rending prayers, for the pur-
ose Of collecting from the charitable equal to
4, ,567 SO cents, to be appropriated for the benefit
the prosecuted Mormans, and to set their King
ON Of Zion its legs in the Missouri wilderness
ar. Green is legitimate Norman preacher. He
vas regularly consecrated by the Rev. Joe Smith,
ormerly tin pedlar and molasses vender in Manchss-
er Ontaro but now by the grace Of God, the father
nd founder Of a and improved religion. We re.
quest all those who have money in their pockets and
generosity in their hearts, to open their pursesrings
md deal out the specie in ladlefuls. Money is not
light but with sinners-ssnts always have plenty.
