 to Trade.

I sO n as~ANe
 The news brought by the Cambria is the most important that has crossed the water since the peace of 1915. It is pacific in characier-and for more than that even 10 the present generation of men. It IS not that the leaders of the two great parties in England, Sir Robert Peel and Lord John Russell, both manifest the most pacific tenn per towards the United States. IL is not that they both openly disapproye ,Mr. Pak enhain's rejection of President Folks offer to the 49th degree as the boundary of Ore. gon, without referring the proposition 10 his government. It is not alone in these or in lhe manifestation of feelings the most pacific | towards our country. It is in the great fact that the proud landed aristocracy of l England has al last been forced to let go its grasp upon the giant monopoly of the Corn Laws-a monopoly that has been for many Years the subject of the most with. | erlng denunciatens, because of ifs oppres. sions upon the mass of the people in depri. vlng them of a sufiiciency of bread.
 Mir. Cobden's League has well nigh ac- compshed The purpose of its organization. The monopoly will get struggle hard for the mastery. l. may in the outset defeat the Ministry in Parliament but it is doom. ed. and must come down, or ihe govern nient must stop. Wings and Tories have both tried their hands at carrying on the government and uphoding the com laws, and have failed in the experiment.. The Ministry have brought forward their scheme for giving freedom to industry, releasing trade from odous restrictions. and putting the loaf upon every man's table and if they fail to carry inc project, and go out of power, there will be nobody 10 supply their places. Therefore, the experiment. that has heen commenced, must go on. or the government must stop. ln this extremity the andholders find themselves, and howev- CT repugnant it may be to their pride, there is no escape from it, but through submission. It is impossible, therefore that the Ministry should fail to carry their scher:e.
 What is Mir. Pee's project IL is nothing less than giving freedom to industry and trade, in the very stronghold of restrictive and prohibilory systems. If perfected, it will be a century of progress to the nations in the arts of civilization for if the restric- tive system falls in Great Britain, it falls throughout the world. II is the will of that Providence that guides the race, that it should be so. The failure of the potato crop has hastened the crisis, for starvation has q re. sistless energy. It knocks loud, will be heard, and cannot be turned away with a con.emptuous answer. The people must have bread, and tue monopoly of the corn flaws can no longer stand in the way. Jus. lice, .immulabe, even. handed justice de. mands that the monopoly shall be ground to powder; and in such 7conest it is not safe for government to take the side of wrong against right.
 A market is to be opened in England for the surplus agricultural products of other nations Indian corn, one of the great crops of the United States, and on which England now imposes heavy duty, 1t is proposed by MT. Peel 10 admit upon the light tax of one shilling the quarter,- than three cents on the bushel. Many inns portant articles of provisions, such as beef, pork, bacon, &c. are 10 ne entirely relieved from import duties and on all others the present taxes are to be SO essentially redu- ced as 10 take away from their revenue system every thing of a protective charac- ter.
 Our courtry is capable of lmmensity of production. We can almost supply the world with bread, let the demand be made upon it's productive energies. The prolific West needs market for the abundance il can produce, so that it need not be thrown into the older States, and thus press down their agriculture by excessive competition The influence of this great free trade move. ment in England, is 10 be felt lhroughou the world. knocks off the shackles whcl have been imposed upon labor for the bene fit of capital, and industry will rise up Ire, generated and dsentbraled." lis passage through Parliament will give an increaset value to every cultivated acre of land 1T America: for we shall find better market for our produce and Great Britain will some how find the means to pay for it; and 1T that way trade will be promoted;
 Let the United States then meet these ad vances towards more liberal system o commerce among the nations with an oper handed liberalty In the arrangement of oul revenue system; for this is the way in which the great principles of enlightened freedom having their foundation in benevolence, r truth, and in right, are to be dflused over the earth. Objections will be made, but theiI own selfsbness will take from them all theiI force.
