LONDON, July 26, 1850.
The melancholy intelligence Of the death of
President TAYLOR has furnished the London jour
mails with abundant materials for comment upon
tho of ~ ,c xha -
We are glad to state that however varied these
comments may have been, and sufficiently filed
with mistakes as is the most correct among them,
yet we have not met with one which is conceived in
an beral spirit or expressed in any thing but the
most respectful terms. The Times, in the first
instance, gave leading article as laudatory of the
private character of General TAYLOR as his nearest
relative could desire, and as favorable to his public
course could be reasonably expected. The
Morning Chronicle has a long and liberal article
upon the subject the errors Of which as 10 facts are
as obvious as the riendliness Of spirit. The COM
ments Of the Daily NeUs are in the same spirit
and it concludes long and very correct biography
Of the deceased President with the following SEN
tences:
Previous to his entering upon Office he indicated the
character Of his intended policy in speech that tended to
confirm the character his friends had claimed for him for
good His subsequent conduct confirmed the ayora
beimpreson that this preliminary created
and Of all parties will lament the event that has shorten
ed the career Of who served bis country gaIanty
in the field and moderately feaessy, and WELL in the
Presidential chair"
Mr.. LAWRENCE has addressed short but very
well-written circular to American citizens in Eng
land, upon the death Of the President, inviting
them to join in the national sorrow" and contain
l4o, crl 1~ho ~or
the deceased, as soldier, statesman, and man.
Nothing Of striking importance has occurred in
Parliament. Mr.. EwART's annual motion for the
abolition OF the punishment Of death was negatived
by vote Of 46 to 40. The Irish franchise bill has passed
the House Of Lords and the muaed measure will shortly
have make its appearance again n the Commons House,
where, hope it will be restored something like its orr
gina integrity the fate Of the bill is however, very
tain. portion Of the Liberal party inclined accept
the mockey Of franchise which the Lords have offered to
the people Of Ireland rather than reject the bill altogether
Manged though it has been, it will something in the
shape Of county constituency, and that something will form
at least foundation for complete Mr.. |
FEARGUs OCoNsER has given notice that he shall during
the next week. for repeal of the legislative union be-
tween England and Ireland This announcement convuls
cd the House with laughter. The mode in which peti-
lions to Parliament frequently manufactured has been
practically illustrated in the Of petition from Liver
pool relative the wateworks in that town. Three per-
have been committed to Newgae for breach Of the
privileges Of Parliament in having affixed fictitious or unau
horzed signatures by wholesale such petition These
spoke Of this mode Of filling up petitions well
understood and generally pactsed one and saving great
lea Of trouble" The recent law appointments particu
ary the elevation Of Sir THOMAS WILDE the office of
Lord Chancellor have excited good deal Of surprise. The
passing of Lord Campbell who known to have long
ooked forward to the Chanceorshp, exces the ire of the
Tory journals and Of the Wing journals dspleased

Mr.. Barrow Parke, all Whigs and all standing generally

Salaries has sgreed recommend several important reduc

The review Of the foreign trade given in the last
Mark Lane Erpress, states that in the vicinity Of Dantzc
he crops promising but from Vohynia the reports
