for sea for some weeks, aud which was
to have formed part of the Home Squad.
ron, has now been ordered to carry out
to Europe, Washington Irving, our min-
lister to Spain. This gentlemen will bear
with him 10 Europe the warmest wishes
for his welfare and happiness. The gen.
erous and manly tone Of his writings has
cndeared him to all Of US, and we believe
that his appointment has given universal
satisfaction.
The frigate destined to take him from

both sickening and disgusting to witness
tho effort that is made by party, in nearly
all the States, TO make political capital
out Of the subjec. Of banks and the ques.
ton Of resumption of specie payments by
them. Is the currency of the country a
subject OF SO trifling a character that il

err Importance than any other that can BE-

and be Invested altogether of the spiri, Of

Hasty and inconsiderate legislation ia
relation to the banks and the currency,
will always sail Of accomplishing its Oh.
jeci and viii generally react upon those
who favor il. A reaction is already very
perceptible, in relation to the propositions
that were introduced into the legislature
of this State but little more than a week
since, requiring the banks TO resume pay
men; of their obligations in specie imme-
diately after the passage into law of tho
bill that was brought forward for the pur-
pose. Even some Of the friends OF tho
party that favored the proposal have be-
come uneasy. They are beginning 10
discover the disastrous cons quentes that
will fall, not upon the banks only, but
upon the whole community, and upon the
government Of the States. A storm has
been raised, which il has already been
found necessary TO aIIay and control.
"a return To specie payments by tho
banks is measure OF no trivial cbarac.
ter. II is not the banks only which are
affected, but the debtor portion OF the
community. The Banks can pay, ifihoss
who are indebted to them can pay what
they owe. The passage of law by the
legislature TO enforce the resumption in
sianter, will be telling those who are in
debted to the banks that they must pay
their debts upon the instant also.
There probably never has been Pc

calm and prudent Legislation was so impe-
riously called for as at the present time,
A II the talent, and all the experience that
can be found at command, is required to
be exerted in devising measures calculnt-
ed to relieve the State, its institutions, and
its citizens, from their present embarrass-
ed condition. Violent measures carried
through by hasty legislation, cannot re-
move, and will nssuredly sggrayate and
augment evils"

A practice prevailed among the early
Assyrans OF collecting the marriageabls
Young women once a year in every viii
iage, and commencing with the most
beautiful, putting them up at auction to
the highest bidder. The money realised
from The sale Of the beautiful was assessed
as portion to the less attractive, and no
one was allowed to carry off his purchase
unless be gave security that he would
take her to wife. Il was also stipulated
that the women should be well treated by
their husbands-an excellent provision,
that might be emulated with advantage
in modern times.

About Two hours before the Roslin left

Although he had made lis escape after
