my last letter to you, | made some rehec-
tons on the Navy, for not having attempt
ed to carry the Castle by landing from the
ships. beg leave TO recall those remarks,
as have since learned that young lieu
tenant in the Navy presented a proposition
to the government to that effect, asking all.
,hority to purchase a merchant vessel and
500 Colts pistols, run in as a merchant
vessel, and moor to the walls Of the Cas-
tie, and at hight board ffow the yard.arms
and jib-booms; and that merchant vessel
with 500 men, armed with Colts pistols
and otherwise equipped, was act'ially held
in readiness to make the. attempt, waiting
out the permission Of the Commodore, who
had discretionary power from the Secre-
tary Of The Navy to authorize it, if expe-
dent, and had there been any unnecessa-
~ delay in the Castles giving nr, the at
tempt would have been made"

H. The commercial editor of the New
York Herald speaking of the condition of
the money market in England, the Bank of
England, Sc, and the probable effect on
this country, remarks that the people of
the United States are not so much inter-
ested in the financial matters OF Europe,
or SO intimately connected with the finan-
cial affairs of the old world, as in former
times; and are not therefore SO much af-
fected with the difficulties and embarrass-
ments of the money market of Great Brit
ain as when we were largely indebted to
the merchants and manufacturers of that
country. We are the creditors of the
whole world, and the gold and silver of
the old, are being rapidly transferred 30
the new world. nevor 20 return. Our
principal products are the necessaries of
life; they are food and raiment, and de-
mand exists for them in all parts of the
world. The population of Europe must
have food-they can get alors a little bet.
ter without .-.v.n.ng, than without food
and if they do not consume our cotton TO
the extent We wish, they must have our
corn and wheat. There is no want SO
steady and so much beyond cur control as
that OF food 10 satisfy hunger; and the con-
sumption of bread stuffs and provisions of
all kinds continues uninterrupted-itrolls
on as regularly as the day continues round,
and the supply must keep pace, or star
walton stares thousands in the face. The
Bank of England is completely powerless
opposed to demand for the staff Of life
1t is impossible to stem the tide, and the
sooner that institution gets into the cur
rent and floats along with it, the better, as
there will then be very little danger to be
apprehended. On the contrary, any al
tempt to keep out supplies of bread stut1s
by placing restrictions upon the currency
by raising the rate Of interest, and by
refusing discounts to corn Dealers will
bring about suspension Of specie pay
ments, and produce an incalcalable amount
of distress
