an influence upon business causing perhaps duness

probably great changes in the affairs for the coming
year. and expansive credits may draw into the hands OF
spectators the proceeds Of agriculture and other Industry
for which the producers will in seek payment amid
the inevitable resulting revusion. Both in New York and
Pennsylvania bank expansion will probably follow the en-
HANGED facilities for special privileges that the turn of the
elections present The election Of wing governor in
the latter win be followed by renewal of all those
bank charters that have expired and which will expire by
1852, and bills for which have been uniformly vetoed by

In another part of this days paper will be
found report of the first days proceedings of
the Massachusetts State Convention for the nomi-
nation OF candidates for the Presidency and Vice
Presidency, in opposition to General Cass and
General Taylor. 1t will be seen by glance that
the spirit which animates the members is one of
bitter hostility to the nomination of General Tay-
or, to the further extension of slave territory and
IN favor of the Wilmot proviso.
IL cannot be concealed that this antl-extension
OF slavery movement, will, unless great care and
moderation be exercised, have most important
influence on the institutions and parties of this
country. The latter are almost certain to be des-
troyed; but it is to be hoped that all parties will
not lose sight of that glorious instrument, the
constitution of the United States.

IN NEW YoRK.-This gentleman, M. Simounet, ar
rived the other day, by the English steamer Hiber-
na and took possession Of his consulate on Tuesday
morning; M. De La Forest the ex-consul, having
surrendered his power into his hands, M Smounet
was previously highly respectable merchant of
Paris. He made his fortune by trading with Spain;
but, at the epoch Of the last revolution of February
lest great part of his property by the numerous
failures which the consequences of that poll
teal earthluak Through M Ledru-R ollin's in
fluence and friendship, M. Simounet-whose ca
pacIty well honesty and republican principles
were greatly appreciated by that member of the
provisional government-received his nomination
the very morning of the opening of the National
Assembly, when the first of the revolution sur
rendered their powers to the deputies elected by the
national vote. M. Simounet, as an old merchant.
is said to be perfectly able render great services
to his countrymen; and no doubt his courteous de-
portmeIi and manners will soon gain him the
friendship and confidence of all his countrymen of
our city, as well as of all Americans connected
with the French trade. NJ Simounet is accompa-
MED by his son, in the capacity of hepe consul No
change has yet been made among the employees
of the French consulate they will probably all keep
their respective positions.
In speaking thus of the new consul Of France we
ought not to let the opportunity pass without bear
ing witness to the invarIable urbanity which, for
twenty years, characterized M. DE La Forest, the
ex-Consul- General. He leaves his Office with honor
to his reputation, and regret among many Ameri-
can friends.
