FOREIGN NEWS.

The news brought by the Acadia is full o.
fearful lorcbodings for the future peace Of Eu'
rope, every portion Of which seems in u com
llcle state of combustion. Where or when the
revolution, SO suddenly commenced by France,
is to end, requires more than human sagaclIy
to determine. The news received by each sue
ccssive steamer only swells our doubts, and in.
wolves in greater mystery the lale OF the entire
Continent. BY the last accounts the aspect Of
affairs in England look extremely critical, and
we are prepared 10 hear, by the coming steamer
that u revolution has broken oul both in Eng
land and hcland.
Should this be the case, we must prepare TO
hear Of one Of the most bloody revolutions the
rarh has ever Witnessed. 1t will be the last
fl ghl of monarchy to preserve its power, and it
will be only yielded after most desperate and
sanguinary struggle. The letter which we an.
mex, from the able correspondent of the New
York tribune, dated al London, gives vivid
Ioreshadowing of the dangers by which that
Government is at present surrounded: and we
commend it 10 the careful perusal Of our rea.
dcrs. Should revolution take place in Eng
land, we may expect Immediately after its an
Inouncemenl, on this side of the water, to hear
that Canada and the other North American Pro.
vinces OF Great Britain have thrown off their
allegiance aud proclaimed themselves lndepen-
dent. Under any state of things, we believe
that sooner OF later this will be the case; but we
have no doubt the present state of things in
England will tend TO hasten the establishment
of new Republic on this Continent. As re-
CARDS the probable effects of such an event sc
lar as we are concerned, we ure not prepared
to say; but il is for us TO pause and reflect wei
upon our position, and to prepare for any con
tingencies which may arise, calculated in any
manner TO affect US.
A revolution in England it cannot be denied
would have a most embarrassing influence upor
our commercial interests, as it would unquos
tionably cause u suspension and failure Of al
the great commercial and manufacturing estab
Ilishnents of that country. Fortunately for us
we are indebted TO Europe, instead Of their be
ing indebted to us--but the suspension Of tn
demand for our cotton, tobacco, and other sta
J pies, would operate most seriously upon ou
} prospects, and cause great embarrassment
becomes us, therefore, 10 pursue, in oil ou
S transactions, most prudent course, and to
T prepared in time, in case the storm shouI
: come, for whatever results it may bring vii
: il.
