THE REMARKS OF MESSRS. CALHOUN + F00TE.
The Remonstrance Of the British Minister against
the Increase of Duties on Iron.
New Features at Washington

The synopsis of the Congressional proceedings
gives little light upon two very important themes
The first in order is the very curious, novel, and
peculiar movement of the British Min ster, Sir
Henry Bulwer, upon our internal regulations,
which has been exposed by the transmission, by
the President, to the houses of Congress, of cor
respondence between the British Minister and Mr.
Clayton, IN which Sir Henry, IN bis first letter,
asks that the coasting trade between the Atlantic and
Pacific be gwen TO British vessels, in consideration
Of the trade IN the East Indies, and that British
vessels be furnished with American registers and,
in his second letter, with curious and uncommon
assurance, presents kind OF remonstrance from
his government against an increase of duties on
iron or any other British products The subject
came up in the House of Representatives, where it
will become the first business for transaction to-
day, and was met with sudden blow from Mr..
Stanley In the Senate, our special Geographic
letter states, II brought Mr. Clay to his feet What
will become of II, is matter of doubt. 1t is rich
repast for those who have been feeding enc dish
for many weeks.
In the House OF Representatives, the debate in
the Committee of the Whole proceeded, without
anything new being presented. In the Senate,
however, series of entertaining assertions and
rejoinders took place between Mr.. Foote and Mr..
Calhoun. MIR. Foote seems to have through
the opacity of bloody Monday, and to find the
North more reasonable than has hitherto been repre-
sented. He would seem to know no Southern leader
for he asserts that the South are not with Mr..
Calhoun, and can with ''safety and hoaor" remain
in the Union with the present constitution. Ii may
be So 1t is to be hoped that it will be So and that the
whole matter Will be settled. But it is difficult TO
say how this is to be done, when even those who
are disposed to make the necessary terms are too
tinid to throw themselves into the breach. A
Regulus has not yet been found among Northern
men--and till he is found, we cannot hope for any
peace or for permanent settlement of this chief
national difficulty. We shall go session after
session, tnfling and moving on the board, till the
game ends in the utmost confusion and disorder.
STILL let us hope even against hope.

ANTICIPATED Trouble IN OUR Law Courts
The COMMISSIONER OF JURoRs-If there be one
Of our institutions more sacred than another, il is
that Of trial by jury II is boosted to be the birth
right Of every British subject, and part of that
common law upon which our own code is founded
In the old country. aud particularly in ireland, trial.
by jury has been frequently perverted to an engine
of oppression and injustice. The party in power
have packe Juriss from iher own partisans, to in
sure verdict OF 'sguliy," in those cases where il
was necessary 10 p'opup rotten oligarchy against
the assaults OF popular agitation Are the poti-.
clans in inns free country about to initiate that in
toersble inqulty, and turn the jury box into an
arena of polIicsl |, IL the first time the attempt
has been made 10 New York, not only to endorse,
but to ccpy the despoilsm by which the people are
ground to powder in the old world. We hope is
will be the last
In the case Of Mr. Walker, the decapitated
Commissioner, NJ charge OF incompetency has
been alleged, no mpu,ation is made upon his in
tsgriiy. On the contrary, he is admitted on all
hands to be an exc, enr officer, and he only wants
the one qualification necessary TO satisfy the Mo-
loch of party spirit ls not one of the dominant
parly-and 1t was determined, therefore, to sacri-
fee him, 10 make room for Mr. Haws, brother of
the Aide rman of the Tenth. We do not care ie,
for Mr.. w alker; VIZ know him only by reputation;
but, IN common with The majority of the citizens,
we feel that this is violation of the sacredness
of the jury box. Wings just as indignant as
democrats at the course pursued in the Board Of
Supervisors
Some of the judges, disguised with the baseness
of party spirit, absented themselves from the
meeting; aud some who attended declined voting
because they deemed the meeting Illegally consti-
tuted. The resolution, therefore, is probably an
Illegal one, and may lead to very serious conse-
quences. II IT be Illegal, it will upset the proceed
ings of our tribunals OF justice; for if Mr.. Haws
be not appointed according to law, such Jurors as
he may select will not be jurors IN the eye of the
law, and their verdicts will not be legal and must
fail TO the ground. wide field for litigation has
been thus opened, and the lawyers will doubtless
reap golden harvest IL is stated that Mr.. Walker
will take immediate proceedings to test and estab-
lish his right to the Office, and will carry the ques-
ton, if necessary, to the highest courts 10 the land
II he succeeds, it is highly probable he will
the citizens will be mulcted with the costs of the
proceedings, in addition to all the other burthens
under which they eroan.
But there is a still more serious consideration az
siake-the purity of the jury box-which, like
Cesars wife, ought only to be pure, but above,
suspicion.
