Highly Importsnt from the North and
south-Revolutisu I'm the Policy and ar
ties OF New England-New Position OF the
General Goverpment-USter Destruction
ofthe High Tariff Agitation.
We give to-day several articles which possess the
highest Importance and bearing the fate of par
ties-the policy of the country-and the future
course OF the American Administration. We are
now furnished with the most unquestionable evil
dence that a revolution has commenced in New
England, that will utterly dismember the wing
party and destroy the high tariff pOlicy-a revolu-
ton begun by the leading men of Boston and Low
ell concurred in by the master spirits of the south,
and adopted at once by the honest consent of Pre-
sident Tyler.
The first article in these developments is extract
ed from the Boston Courier" and contains
highly interesting correspondence, to which we
have heretofore alluded, between Mr.. Webster and
the leading men and manufacturers OF New En-
gland relative TO the present state Of the country
and the future policy of the general government.
The opinions and views contained in this cores
pondence, form only the germ Of Mr.. Websters
great Biltimore speech, which has already created
so great agitation and discussion throughout the
land. II is now proved beyond the reach of doubt
or cavil that the manufacturers of New England
have come to the resolution to abandon the exclu-
sve tariff policy, as well all its entanglng and
corrupt alliances with personal parties. The ground
now assumed restores the old harmony between the
north and the south, aud will produce highly
beneficial change in public policy, and the move
ments of the masses This correspondence, and
Mr.. Webgfera ech are only tho heo; of
the movement-,he mutterings of the thunder be.
fore the storm. In few months the whole nation
will be in the midst OF the discussion.
The other article to which we refer in this con.
nection, Is taken from the I" Madisonian," the or
gan OF the administration at Washington II is
however, conceived and written with Jar different
tone, temper, and sagacity, than the preceding ef-
fusions of that orrna-aud bears the marks of great
delberatlon, proper dignity, and calm resolution
1t is no doubt The index and exponent OF Mr. Tyler
and his cabinet-and if the same course be pursued
hereafter. without any OF those weak and feeble at
temps TO establish small papers here and there to
agitate and interfere about small offices-to organ
ze silly associations and clubs for silly and sinister
purposes-we have every reason TO believe that Mr.
Tyler will gain the ground he has lost, and will
yet eD,i,le HIMSELF at the close of his Presidency to
the solid appreciation of the country, not the silly
adulation of Office beggars and bankrupts.
John Tyler, the amiabe and patriotic President,
we still believe him to be in spite of the errors
ne has been led into by unprnciped fatterers has
now a chance TO take high, noble, independent, and
patriotic ground-and TO adopt line Of policy that
will tend to terminate his administration with ho
nor and applause. The policy indicated by the
purest and most practical men of the east explained
and illustrated by the great intellect of Webster,
L n IL
hern interests, is the only safe ground left for the
present government of Mr. Tyler to assume. This
policy rises above all the ephemeral and cor
rupt questions of the day-bank-sub treasury
assumption = reputation dlstribution-or tariff.
By the adoption of this policy alone the coun-
trybe reieved-publc prosperity es.ablished-the
credit Of the insolvent States restored-the whole
interests OF the whole country protected. The hos
tile agitation of interest against interest-ciique
against chque-section against section, which was |
introduced by certain politicians the close OF The
European wars, has been the cause OF all our
financial iroubles-o our revusons-ou bankruptcies
defalcaons-and our immoraies of all
kinds. new era begins from this day forward.
Courage
From the Boston Courer.1
Ma. WEBsTER's SPEECH at Baltimore does not
suit the n. YORK American; and the Tribune, of the
same city, with some other papers, insist, In the
penItude OF their ignorance and assurance, that
what MIR Webster has suggested, would be ruinous
10 New England We can think OF no way more
feasible 10 let the Tribune and the class OF papers
with which II is associated know what New EGG
land people think OF such matters, than to publish
the following correspondence. Perhaps, after read
ing II, they may understand New England interests
better. Or perhaps they may think that Messrs.
Sears, Gus, Perkins, Cabot, Mills, Skinner, and
Sayles-the largest owners OF manufacturing stock
Mr. Brooks the largest capitalist In the cty-Messrs.
Sturgls, Shaw, Hooper, Gardner, and Sargent,
wealthy merchants of the highest standing-and the
other gentlemen who are connected with the banks

OF the papers referred TO may think these gentlemen

their opinions worthless. But we are OBTAINING
them too long from the correspondence:
