House Of Lords Tuesday, March 10
A conversation sprung out OF the presen
ialion of two petitions from hand-loom
weavers, by Lord Lansdowne, on the sub
ject Of the Truck System, in the course OF
which,
Lord Sranhope remarked, that the hand
loom weavers were very distressed and
oppressed class Of men. They worked
IL hours a-day, and yet they got no more
than Is. per week for their labor. He wish
ed the Noble Lord, who used TO be so elo-
quent on negro slavery, and the i'll treat
ment and hard labour to which the slaves
in the West Indies were said 10 have been
subjected, would consider the condition OF
these white slaves. and compare the case of
the hand-loom weavers, who had nothing
more than two pence-halfpe per day 10
live on, with that OF the negroes.
Earl Stanhope presented petition from
a man in his 9lst year, who had paid poor
rates for period OF so years, and was now
refused outdoor reliefln his poverty. tie
objected to the workhouse as prison, and
to separation from his wife as cruel visi-
taiion in his old age.

4 war between Grea, Britain and the
United States would appear TO be inevita-
bic. Nothing, al all events, can prevent
war, excepting the most ample prepare.
| tons on the part OF this country TO guard
the national honor from violation, and 10
maintain, at all hazards, the dominion OF
Eng land over her North American colo
MES.
1t would be the merest folly on the part
Of the English government, TO shut its
eyes 10 the fact that war with England
when the favorable moment shall arrive, is
the great object OF Mr.. Van Buren, and OF
his party. The North American republi-
cans hope yet to subject the whole OF the
vast American continent 10 their sway;
and the presence of native tribes, or OF
colonists owning allegiance to other coun.
tries, they regard as equally PROCLAMATION
of the soil. To exlinguish the sovereign
~ OF Great Britain in the Canadas IS even
more necessary to the consolidation OF the
power of the federal union, than Is the eX-
tinction of the native races 10 the estab-
lishment Of democratic supremacy in the
far west. 'Fs'
Throughout the federal union, there is
but one feeling as to the necessity, sooner
or later, Of wrestling the CanadaS from
Great Britain. $50 long as the Canadas
acknowledge the sovereignty of England,
so long is the federal union liable to dis
ruption--so long, in fact, does England
hold to great extent, in her hands, the
fate of her former colonies.
But whilst the desire is universal through
out the United States to subvert all traces
OF English dominion in North America,
the commercial relations which connect
the southern states with England have
induced in the more wealthy classes of
traders, feeling Of exceeding reluctance
to engage in hostilities with this country.
This feeling of reluctance on the part Of
American commercialists will, however,
avail only to very limited extent towards
the prevention of WARRIOR the commercial
srstOcracY OF America is itself regarded
as tyranny, as vast social nuisance, by
the ultra-demOcratic party throughout the
federal union. The conquest Of the Cana
das would scarcely be hailed with more Joy
by the Loco-locos, than wonld the subver-
sion of the power Of the moneyed classes.
The same process, however, bids fair to
attain both objects. The Canadas. can
be added to the federal union, only BY con-
quest; and war with Great Britain would
consign halt the moneyed men in the U.
States to bankruptcy. A successful war
with Great Britain, therefore, would
only add prodigiously to the solid power
of the United States.

ANOTHER MARTYR GoNE.-ANToINE
DoRE ESQ.,, respectable and wealthy
Merchant OF the Comfy of L'Acadie, has
breathcd his last. He was made prisoner
last Fall, forced to walk to the railroad at
St. Johns, thence taken to Montreal,
where he was thrown into a dungeon.
His trial began on the Goth January last
and nothing being proved against him,
his prosecutors released him, but his health
was so much injured that he very soon al
ter died. This is the inhuman treatment
all liberal men suffer under British tyranny
in Canada. Nix. DoRL was well known
last year in PIattsburgh, where he was a
Refugee, ill Lord Durham's amnesty.
STILL ANorHER.-The wife Of Mr..
EUsEBE LANCToT of Ste. Marguerite de
Blairfndie, whose property was plundered
and burnt, died few weeks ago at La
prairie. When the fire was set TO her
house, she had just time to leap from one
Of the windows. She was far gone in
pregnancy, and this accident caused the
immediate death of her child. She !inger
ed since then a miserable existence till
death closed the scene. Americans This
is the barbarous manner in which your
neighbors are treated, yet you are forbid,

cruel CoIborne at NapierviIe during the
late troubles not satisfied with this, they
made him prisoner and were dragging
him to jail, when some officers more hu-
name stopped the brules who were per-
forming so disgraceful an act. Mr. Cote
was obliged to take shelter with his poorer
neghbors, where he suffered much from
the want of provisions. Some weeks after
he went to Montreal to live with some of
his friends there. He could not survive
the intelligence that his son-in-law, Mr.. 7.
Fl. NORM and his grandson Mr.. A. q.
NORM had been sentenced to death by the
Court Martial. Added to this, his young

The communication of a citizen we
have received, and decline publishing.
The tone, temper and spirit of the arti-
Gle is such as to forbid its insertion in
our paper. We as well as the writer
have felt the disgrace imposed upon our
State by the conduct of some of the
chartered Banks as well as some bank
ing associations that have, and do now,
exist among US; but however sensible
we may be of the wrongs and injuries
sustained, the frauds practised, and all
other evils inflicted upon US by some of
the banking concerns in our State, we
will never let our columns be used for
the purpose of exciting commotion and
generating the wild spirit of mob law,
that exists among us, and wants no in
centive, but rather needs a check than a
spur.
The propositions of the writer are too
disorganizing in their tendency, to meet
with appreciation from US, or receive
currency at our hands. The remark of
the writer, that he is friend of the
Banking system, is gratuitous-we would
not be influenced by the political views
of the author if we thought that his
communication would be productive of
good, or contained suggestion, moral
within itself, as remedy for the evils OF
the present corrupt system of banking,
pursued by some of the Banks of our
State.

We clip from the columns of the
Weekly Review, printed at Franklin,
Tenn, the following eulogy upon, and
comparison of the Wing press of the
United States, with the Van Buren, press.
We ask every freeman in the State to
bear in mind the difference between the
Free WING -NEwsPAPER PRESSES of
the United States, and the GOVERNMENT
of VAN buren, PRESS. WIG NEwsPA-
PERs constitute emphatically the FREE
Press of this country. They express
the sentiments of freemen, and are sup
ported by the liberality of patriotic and
intelligent citizens. The Van Buren,
press is devoted TO the interests of the
men in office, and wherever even the
smallest amount of the patronage of the
general government can be given to sus-
tain them, it is uniformly done. In
many other instances these Van Buren,
Government presses are gotten up by
SECRET COMBINATIONS of WEALTHY SToc K
HOLDERS who bring their COMBINED IN
FLUENcE to bear against the success OF
others, who simply claim an equal right
with their more powerful neighbors, to
exercise freedom of speech, sentiment,
and action unawed and untrammelled.
The hatred of the office seekers,
hangers on, and partizans of the Van
Buren, party, against the FREE WING
PRESS, is bitter in the extreme. The
startling developments of corrupt abuses
in the government-the robberles OF the
public money by Swartwout, Price,
Hawkins, Harris and hundreds OF other
sub-treasurers, have awakened public
attention, and aroused the moral feelings
of every honest and virtuous citizen, to
a full examination of the facts, the eau
ses, and the Importance of speedy re-
form. Alarmed at the demonstration of
indignant public sentiments against these
villainies and abuses, the Van Buren,
politicians are endeavoring to avert Its
influence, by crying out day after day
that the Wing papers are filled with
nothing but lies and false statements.
They cannot muzzle the press, or gag 1t
by law, much as they may wish TO do SO,
and hence they resort to this wholesale
charge of falsehood, deception, and mis-
statements. They set themselves up as
libellers and calumniators, determined TO
destroy its usefulness, aud weaken pub
lie confidence in its Statement. OF facts,
by reckless, unfounded, and unprosen
charges of falsehood. We caution every
body against the assertions OF these par
tizans. The Wing press is terror only
to evil doers,--it is identified with the
interests of the people, and gives utter
ance only IN what IL knows to be the SEN
timents of virtuous, intelligent, and
patriotic COMMUNICATIVE VAN buren,
PRESSES are gotten up by GOVERNMENT
PARTIzANs for the purpose of CONTROL
LING and GAGGING PUBLIC OPINION. WIG

FALSE SwEARING.-We regret to learn
that one of the expedients resorted to in
these latter days to prevent the execu-
ton Of the laws, has given rise to case
of perjury. On the 4th inst. Mr.. JOHN
NJ. BETsILL, resident about 12 miles from
this town, petitioned Judge Nicholson for
a supersedeas--and it was afterwards as
certained that in the requisite affidavit,
he committed '',oilful and corrupt PERU.
ry." The fact was yesterday proven on
oath by the Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff,
before the Mayor, S. Bonsall, Esq. and
the Coroner was Immediately despatched
in pursuit of Betsill He expected the
officer, however, and made his escape
into the adjoining woods, where 1t was
impossible for the Coroner to overtake
him. For the honor of the county OF
Kinds, we trust that we shall not be un-
der the necessity of recording another
case of the acknowledgement Times.
