The News is thai of Peace. The Mes
sage of Mr.. Van Buren vas carried out in
II days, bu, the proceedings of Congress,
which wen, out in The steam. ship Liverpoo;, ,
had not reached Liverpool. The hot
remarks imputed 10 Mr.. Webster
were. however, copied in the London pa
pers. with all :he warm debate in The UNI.
ted States Sena:e Of that day, as reported in
some of the New York papers. The h'n-

organ of Sir Robert Peel and the Duke Of
Wellington. as well as Of he London mer.
chants OF the Conservative faith, speaks with
unexpected force for peace. ltcven ad-
, vocates compromise--a concessIon--the
| bargain oft boundary line of the lower
part of the St. John f T. the Canada road.
Now, if the great Opposition organ talks
thus. 1t will powerfully advance what we
know 10 be the peaceable views of'he Brit
ish Ministry. The Memorandum, Of the
British Minister and Mr.. Forsyth afforded
universal satisfaction. The calamity ola war
is felt with as much force on the other side
of tine A lan,ic as on this. There Was
great uneas ness in London, and IN cntire
suspension ofbu>iness in all American Sc
curi;ies--bu The belief was almost universal
tha, the good understanding between the
two uatior.s would be restored.
The cheering news IS further advance
and great liveliness in the cotton market.
This news will have al energetic effect up
on our long depressed money market, and
relieve, US, we hope, from the gloom under
which we have been suffering. The sus''

The King, on the 8 h of March, had begun
to frame a new Ministry, but even as late
as the goth The names were not officially an

Passy, and Human, are 10 be members Of
this new Ministry.

Postscript,-Our own money marke, has
a temporary electricity in it, created by the
news ofthe Great Western. Stocks have
gone up good deal. Monicd men feel
much easier. The cotton holders are d..
lighted. There is great relief felt in Wall
street, and in all the business parts of the
CITY. Private letters speak ofthe conllnua-
ton Of peace as certain. Indeed, all ration.
al men of all parties in England speak OF
a war as fratricide. These letters also re-
mark that the arrangement, OF Mr.. Fox and
| Mr.. FORSYTH is considered most happy
one.
