Try, IN inc Ensish GoNernnenI Journals, received
by the las; steamer. Nothing could be natural
than such a disposition in G. Britain, and nothing
moro utterly Incredible than that any party or any
body in that country would b.stow or lend money,
for the purpose OF aiding the American party and
leader, who have brought about and will struggle to
preserve system that snaiehss from the hands OF
England that undisputed control which she has held
OF all the intercourse between us and assumes. at
last, the right OF having interests consulted az
well as hers.

with that party of Order and Law and Property,
who sndeavorins to prevent. in hi, sounry our
newly but Institutions, of which the very mortar
is hardly dry YET, from being pulled down abou
our ears.
But tho there be thi, general likeness of situation
between the parties OF thi. county and OF Enslird
that likeness ends with tbs fact that both Govern
m.nts are threatsaed by headlons and subvcrsivs

presently overthrow all Pfopsrty. as well as all
sober Government While, thu, far, the Conserve

men, yol consider how that enemy is, IL each
country. TO De coTba,-d, you will see that the En-
cshnsn must, for many reasons, give his good
wishes and his help any where rather than 10 the
party who labor to pToserve, IN this country, mode
rate and orderly Democratic Insliiu,ions--the only
one, ,ha, can last, or continue, by the examples
they afford, to excite eny European wish to copy

which threatens it, is, therefore the easy and the

and OF the British po.i.iciin in particular
There is but one way OF doing this; and that i, |
an expedien; which England has, before now. a,
the pinch Of need, resored to. TINS is, to help on
the disorder and rs authors and make the thing
