as well as in England 1t is with the view of
making them acquainted with the English rules
that We have copied into this days paper the arti
Giles from the English papers to which we have re-
ferred II will be recolected that ship of war of
the United States has been tendered by the govern
ment for the purpose Of carrying across the Allan
tic specimens of American industry, and that, for
the present, goods may be sent to the Brooklyn
Navy Yard, where they will be taken care of until
they are deposited safely on board of the second

ENGLAND's GREAT DESIRE FOR PEACE.-For
several years past the English press has been talk
ing loudly of the blessings OF peace, of the horrors
of war, and of the disgrace which it is TO Chris
tauiry and civilization for two powerful nations to
sacrifice the lives Of their inhabitants, and their
resources, in INJECTING injury on each o,her-in
making widows aud orphans, and carrying desola-
ton TO happy hearts aud happy homes. 1t might
be supposed that a nation which talks so much of
peace and it's manifold blessings, was never addict
ed TO war, and had always preferred peace. But
Whist is the truth That same nation has Incurred
a debt Of eight hundred millions of pounds sterling,
for war purposes. Her bayonets have penetrated
every quarter Of the world, civilized and uncvil-
lied, and the thunder of her cannon has been
heard in almest every nation on the face of the
earth. She spent three hundred millions OF pounds
sterling in endeavouring TO suppress liberty in these
United States alone, which she can never repay,
nor is it's return ever expected
What is the cause of the peaceful tone of Eng
lish journalism II is easily explained. England
is so topelessly bankrupt weak, and exhausted,
that she can no longer 90 to war with any power
full nation. She has shorn herself of her strength
and now lies PROSTATE at the mercy Of the world
II well becomes her, therefore, to cry out peace
peace-when she has not the means OF going to
war. She is endeavoring, by every means IN her
power, 10 convince the rest of the world, we'll az
Of her OVID people, ef the advantages ofpeaee; and
one method of doing so, is the Great Industrial
Exhibition Of 1851 We are perfectly well satisfied
th.t this movement originated in seIishness, and
hss been adopted merely as an expeSient to bring
he ends Of the earth together in London aud pro-
r,c,e reeoe, through selfish motives We are in
favor - peace as much as any one can be, and de-
r'o-e wcr as much es any one can. it is only tbs
l-r-iys q England in this matter that we wish 10
a''-i- %. srd which, We are well convinced, is
purely selfish; for Notwithstanding the progress Of
the age. we are satisfied that England would con-
iinue her old system of aggression, colonization,
and conquest, if she were able to do so, and If she
thought il would pay.
We were much amused in reading in an English
paper received by The last arrival the forowingpro-
gramme Of the procession which was to take place
in London. on the ninth of November, in the
