Movements,
LIVERPOOL, 18Th July, lS43
Alter delightful voyage OF twenty-five days
with the Atlantic as smooth as the North River al
the way, we arrived in this town yesterday, at
O'clock in the good ship Garrick, Captain Skiddy
never enjoyed more pleasant, easy, or delightful
voyage. The only csp-ful Of wind hatlooked like
gale was q fine blow round Holyhead, which
lasted for few hours, and sent us rapidly towards
Liverpool. | have scarcely yet recovered my
thoughts and habits for operations on land but
shall be under way in few daA and be able
10 look about me with some attention.
We were very much astenished on getting int
the harbor 10 learn that the steamer from Boston o
the LIST had not arrived. Great apprehensions are
entertained about her, and much speculation
Is sfloat respecting her non arrival II nothing be
known of her on the other side, some serious &C
cident must have befalen her. At the Exchange
which visited soon after my arrival, innumerable
enquiries were made about the weather, the fogs,
the ice which he Garrick had seen on her voyage,
and great anxiety expressed all hands.
] have had no lime or opportunity 10 collect any
facts from which to make up my opinions on the
present state Of government, religion, trade, morals,
philosophy, or absurdlty of this mighty country
but shall do it al my leisure. The materials are
ample enough in every department of human life.
The Irish repeal question creates still much alarm,
but it is beginning to assume the form OF a mere
opposition question to the present cabinet, and will
probably end in such result On this vital point,
reduced 10 seventy.three in the House, and
O'Connell considers the fact as prelimi.
nary triumph Vast numbers of troops are
concentrating in Ireland some say 40,OO0-besides
large feet the coast but don't believe there
will be any war or outbreak. 1t may end in an ac-
emulation OF difficulties sufficient TO cause Sir Ro-
bert TO resign, and then will be brought in new
ministry and more trouble. This country is in
somewhat troubled state, and will endeavor 10
give as correct view of its condition as can--but
q little time will be necessary TO accomplish it,
The launching of the great iron steamer al Brs-
tel today under the patronage OF Prince Albert, is
the commencement OF a new era in Atlantic steam
navigation. l suppose she will soon START tor New
York. Macready, the actor, is going out in the
autumn. He has lost every thing in attempting to
revive the legitimate drama in London, and now
betakes himself to America as his last resort. Let
him have a welcome according 10 his merits
Dickens is now very busy writing the true history
guerre OF M rtin Chuzzlewit but il is sad trash at
the best. He is now ridiculng all his friends and
foes alike, without any respect OF persons
will have great budget the next time write.
| hall be off in few days for some OF the Eng
6sh watering places, and contrast them with Sara
toga and Rockawsy also for Ireland-for Scotland
for London-for Paris-for every where.

STATE OF AFFAIRS IN GREAT BRITAN-MR. BEN
SETT's LETTERS received yesterday the first
communic ,tion written by Mr.. Bennett on his ar
nval al Liverpool. Having arrived on the day pre-
vlous to the departure OF the steamship, ne could
do little more than notify OF the safe termination
of his ses-voyage, and his intended future move
ments. His letter, however, will be read with great
interest," corroborating, it does the accuracy of
those views respecting the Repeal agitation and the
position and prospects of the Peel administration
which were expressed in this paper before his de-
parure for Europe.
Mr.. Bennett mas visited Great Britain at most
evenfu crisis in her history. There never has been
before period In her career at which there has
been such a combination oil circumstances, infiu-
ences and events SO calculated to awaken the fears
OF all interested in the stability OF her institutions
Every where The elements Of dsorganizston are a
work. Well may one OF the most violently antre-
publican presses Ia Greal Britain exclam-
look around in the country,or TO remoter causes
beyond this cou0try, and we behold II were, the
very elements of the social fabric heavng beneath
our leet-the awful noise as Of distant ruin comes
booming upon our ears, and even they who Sit IN
palaces aud in Castles forced 10 think Ell the surg
Ing waves of political distraction, inch seem not
unlikely TO sweep them from their seats"
But very differently does the friend OF hui
man rights regard these " signs OF the times"
He sees in all the the moving OF the spirit
OF liberty on the face OF the The struggngs
Of The oppressed irish Peoplethe quiet but no les,
signincant progress OF events in Scotiand-h spas
rnodic movements amongst the discontinued masses
ia England and Wales-the startling growth Of
good sound democratic principles in the churches
of Great BrlIaln-a these betoken in the cleares
manner the existence on the other side OF the At
sntic, and IN an omnipotence soon TO be more fully
exhibited, OF those glorious principles which nave
been bringing forth the blessed fruits OF peace, and
order, and national prosperity on the soil OF the new
world. With the example of republican America
aufly betorp fhei WI aWak ened
consciousness OF the possession OF that moral
force which wisdom and intelligence create-with
newly acquired and just notions of popular rights,
tie people the masses OF Great Britain, have at last
fairly entered the field of conflict with the few who
have heretofore trodden them under foot, and who
