Mum.-As general thing, the federal
papers, from Maine to Louisiana, have
caught up with the greatest ayidity every
sentiment that has fallen from the lips Of
Henry Clay, and heralded it to the world
as the words of truth and soberness.' He
has been the brazen image, before whom
the whole whig party have worshipped
There is reason to believe, however, that
he is fast losing favor in their eyes. We
have not seen his speech recently delivered
in New Orleans, in which he said he Gelt
half inclined to ask for some little nook or
corner in the army, in which he might
serve in avenging the wrongs of his coun-
try;' and in which he hoped "that success
would still crown our gallant arms, and the
war terminate in an honorable peace'-we
say we have not seen this speech in single
whig paper. No, when Henry Clay, tho
he may have been the idol Of the whig par.
~, has the temerily to wish to be instru.
mental in "avenging the wrongs of his
country"--when he hopes "that success
will still crown our gallant arms,". his sem
timents can find no corner in the papers
of that party which has grounded all its
hopes of success upon its efforts TO render
this war unjust and damnable' in the opin-
ion ofthe people. Such sentiments are but
lily calculated to give them "aid and COM
fort"

Important from Brazil.

The brig Reindeer arrived at New York
on las. night from Rio. California trans
ports with Government ship Preble, had ar.
Rived there on the way to Oregon.
A very serious difficulty has occurred
between the Brazilian Government and the
Hon. Henry A. Wise, the American Min
lister there. The disturbance originated in
the imprisonment Of some American sailors
at Rio, for for whose release Mr.. Wise in
terferred. ...
1t was reported that in consequence Of
these proceedings, the Brazilian Congress
had requested the recall Of Mr.. Wise and
our naval commander at that station, Com.
Rosseau. The Upper House had resolved
to expel Com. Rosseau from the coast, af.
ter six hours notice. The resolution was
voted down in the other House. Several
members had resigned their places. Mr..
Wise and Com. RCsseau, in consequence
of these proceedings, refused to make any
manifestations of respect on public oc.
casion.

MORE BANK RELIEF!-From our whig
exchanges, we learn that efforts are being
made to establish bank at Ashtabula, and
another at Piqua, and still another at Zanes-
vile. All these efforts grow out Of the ar
dent desire of the bankers to furnish the
means of enhancing the price of the pro-
ducts of labor! Such, at least has been
the standing and only re ason urged by the
advocates of rag money for the establish.
ment Of these banks--to relieve the wants
of the producers by increasing the price Of
their productions. Well, the laboring peo-
pie have had the benefit of over a score and
a half of these banks for long time past,
and where is the boasted relief which they
were to furnish-where the high prices
that were to be attendant upon their estab-
llshment? What farmer in Ohio has wit
messed an increase in the price Of a single
article of his production? Does not every
one know that ere it not for the increas.
ed foreign demand, the grains of the farmer
could not even maintain their present pri-
ces, though all the banks in Ohio. and those
which haze. gone before them, were to use
their influence for that purpose. The in
creased expectation of grain to Europe
was fast bringing to this country suficien.
cy of the constitutional currency of gold
and silver, which, without the aid Of banks,
would find its way into the pockets Of those
who by their labor had earned it; but the
bankers, ever anxious for the welfare of
the people, must be permitted to relieve
their wants by taking the hard to them
selves and furnishing the people with a.
better currsncyP

Later.

The N. Y. Courier and Enquirer pub
fishes letter from Rio which gives very
different version Of the difficulties between
Mr.. Wise and the Brazilian Government,
from that published above.
OF Mr.. Wise in general it speaks dis
paraging, conveying the idea that his di-
plomatic department is harsh and offensive,
and exciting strong prejudice against the
U. s.. and their citizens.
AS to the particular affairs of the i'm
prisoned seamen, this letter says they were
intoxicated and fighting in the streets when
arrested; and that the officers who accom-
panied them was needlessiy violent and a.
busive in his demands for their liberation.
1t adds, that the subsequent conduct Of Mr.
Wise was condemned by the American res
i1ents.
