The Great Commercial Exeltsmont.

On every hand the evidences are multiplying in
favor of the belief that the year lSi4 will be mark
ed, both In America and Europe, with extraordi-
nary commercial excitement and activity. The
first movement has begun in cotton, almost stimuli
taneously in Liverpool and New York, and it will
soon spread over the whole United States to New
Orleans.
Now We are glad to see these movements ana
on right principles we shall aid them as much as
we can. When the great staples OF this country
fetch good price, every thing goes . merri'y as
marriage bell" We have had several exci'enen.s
religious excitements--moral excitemen's-poh-
tical excitements; but Of all excitemen's' COM
mend us to that which puts money IN the purse
The future looks brilliant with promise

.rr,v., NJ the British Special Envoy.

H.B. M. ship Vestal, of twenty-six guns, Captain
Charles Talbot, arrived early last evening from
England, with the Right Hon. Richard Pakenham,
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary
from the Court ofSt. James, board, as passenger
She left Plymouth on the 18th utimo, the same
day that the Europe left Liverpool, and therefore,
brings no later news. But we have received by
her the London Epening Mail of the 18th utmo
The Vestal was boarded by our news-boat, live
miles south of the Highlands, where she was left at
anchor She has experienced very severe weather
on her passage-more particularly on the 18th and
26th ultimo On the former day she was struck by
sea, which sprung her bowsprit and knocked away
the forecastle netting And, again on the 9Th INST,
only one hundred and sixty miles from Sandy
Hook, she met with terrific snow-storni, winch
drove her away to leeward.
This clipper soop-of-war will be up to the city
this morning, when Mr.. Pakenham will land. II
i, said that he will leave Immediately for Washing
ton, TO enter upon negotiations on the Oregon
Question. We suppose that the Vestal will re-
main here to take home the Hon. Mr.. Fox, the
present British Minister to this country.
1t is thought, that in these new negotiations, the
Pakenham family will meet with another New
Orleans.

FouRnR1sM-We perceive that one of the chief
apostles of the new revelation, Mr.. Philosopher
Brisbane comes out in that highly respectable organ
of the new sect-the Daily Iribmnc-wth reply
10 us, in name, in relation to the particular views
of Fourier on religion, morals, parallelograms, har-
monies, melodies, discord, concord, and all that
sort of thing His associate in this great business
of restoring long-os Paradise, and bringing about
the new millennium, Mr.. Horace Greeley, having
lost his temper completely, the senior of the firm
has taken up the cudgels with great deal of good
temper, moderation and spirit-just what we would
expect from the sagacious and prudent apostle of
new revelation.
Having at last brought these philosophers down
to the common-sense level of propriety and decen-
cy, we shall now discuss the question with them,
and ascertain what Fourier really was-what he
believed-what he intended to do-what they are
about-what they expect to do-and what the
whole thing will come TON a few days. We
mean to sleep or twice on the matter, how
ever, before touch it again. Fourierism, like
steaks taken from the launches of newy-killed
tiger requires good deal of cooking, and appro-
pirate condiments before it is fit for discussion.

WEBB ON WILLs.-In another column will be
found very searching article from Herman LIE
Roy in reply to ]. w. Webb, on the Stewart Will
case. We do verify believe that James Watson
Webb, in losing his supposed legacy from the
Stewart estate, has actually lost his senses. Day
after day he is pouring his gross and outrageous
abuse against Mr.. Lispenard Stewart-against his
whole family and connexions against male and
iemale--against the living and the dead. We ne
yer saw such violation of the decencies of the
press as he has furnished of late And for
what? Because Lispenard Stewart would not
give him nearly half Of the whole property left
by Robert Stewert in equal proportions, and thus
rob his sisters of their just rights. If Webb goes
on much longer, his friends, if he has any, will
have toprocure strait jacket for his especial use

The GrRARD WILL CAsE.-Mr Webster opened
his argument for the heirs-at-law Of Stephen Grard
on Saturday at IL O'clock. The room was filled
an hour before the Court opened, and hundreds OF
persons turned away unable to obtain admltance.
About one-tourth of those present in the Court
room were ladies', and all the seats of the members
Of the Bar and half the area behind the Judges
were occupied by those who seem TO have as much
taste for the dry. arguments Of the law as wiser
heads The audience trespassed hard upon the
Judges, and but few persons of the great multitude
who desired to be present could get within hearing
distance.
The opening of the argument was remarkable
for all the impressveness of MANNER clearness of
expression, and power of analysis, for which Mr.
Webster is so distinguished. The closing part of
his address for the day produced thrilling effect
upon those who heard him, and many at times
were shedding tears from his eloquent defence OF
the power and influences of the Christian religion
The Court adjourned at three o'clock, and Mr. w.
had not then concluded.
