 and now ;he din Of arms has died away where Ro. mnlus aud Rrmas sueked the wolf. and the cooked hat and epauettes of marshal of France have given way to the tiara forever. We trust she wiil no, declare war against us, and get the Dutch navy to ? help Der. II she does, farewell Liberty and ihe State Department and pack np the documents. With Mexico We arc pretty well agreed.

 for anything bat horses and meat cattle, declined the offer and sent him compliments in Heap. On the whole thefeto taking retrospective view backwards of what have done by labor Of six teen hours day in office, and locking al di- piomacy through the little end of teteseap@, wa think tha; are well is do with the rest of the world, and able 10 take pot luck with the best Of them.
 The appointment of Monsieur Heudebert 10 f.y- ons and oi a gentleman who was oRce in the regu- lar army 10 Vienna, is evidence Of our great desire 10 meet the wants and carry out the wishes of the American people. How GpTop0s 10 send French cook 10 teach the French of Lyons their trade and 10 send man of blood 10 Austria. who is now licking the Hungarian blood of oi her guilty fingers, and rrlJieiag that the House ef Hapsbnrg IS again permitted, by the aid o bATbarous Russia, 10 stand erect in he Holy AliaEce. like Lueiier amid the little devils m hl. crimson donInions Ntsa -.t..Y ing territory by conquest. We are never 10 be caught in such scrape. We have, however, sent out a talking man 10 Central America. who is fine judge oi organic remains, 10 pick mp and claim all the islands that he find that have been formed by the wash and drift wood of the Mississippi To enable him 10 do ths business peaceaby aad legally he has been furnished by this departnr n with blank i fas, signed by the executive; and to make h.s service 6i the same technically sgai. he has been appointed United States constable abroad, with search-warTani powers. We think our E-SqIare will do something 10 enlarge the ot tr-edom. which will hand Us down lii impefIshable green 10 glory.
 Eating general dissatisfaction on the part of he r clerks oi this department and some gfnmbng } among the consufs and ministers who drew their offices by lot out of old hat in the an,c-foon oi the White House, everything has been peaceful and quiet at home. No money wIll be required for the salaries of ministers abroad ths year, they do not go when appointed uuhI the last moment. and then return by ihs first steamer. We sball want, how ever large sun for outfits and iniits, for none ol them are in such harry 10 forget 10 them, and about S2o, ,0O1 Quo tor contingencies. h con- cuding lhls account ol our fnrrIgn relations II IS proper for us to observe that the North Am~ricaa : newspaper, published at Pniied-lpiia Sy McMich- aei & Harvey, IS the best paper published Tn the ! world, and Is rery expensive.

 We recommend the building of fv--hundred pink stern revenue cutters to be propelled by horse pow er and 10 carry ice cutter, tour harpoons, ana oug Tom eaeh-snower baths may be omitted in the winter season by special desire. These cutters would fine coast from the Bay of fuudy 10 Bra St Jago, st short intervals, and during the iGy by days which would be six ot every seFeD. would catch fish enough for ralions-ihsy being manned by but six men, horse, aud cog each tAe business ot the dog being to scent strange I.seis they drew The coast.

 The sabtTeasury, though humbug, is far bet ter than anysoiher humb1g that can be devised for the public unless il is cur breeches pocket, and, therefore, must grin and bear it. Oar late assistant Secretary of the treasury Of Harrisburg ! memory, who knows all about banks-having voted Tor the Bank of the United States when demo- eat, against instructions, and contrary to his , pIedges-has thought much upon the subjset, anu considered that il would very well, provided Congress and the officers oi the general government were permitted to speculate iitt!e ou private count, in buying up, Gd hbhsm State, bank bills, payable in specie, with United States treasury holes, receivable for public dues anu redeemable iu forty years, the seat of government in paper due bills without interest. This would give then specie , at once, and create live funded debt that never could exceed the principal; would help the commu | aty at large by giving them an everlasting paper . currency, NlthoEt interest; and would enaDie hc members of Congress and the officers of govern ment, by an abundance of poeke; moAey. to more luxuries in their daily walks and eOuversa. uons ana thus swell the revenue under the tariff ol le46.
