~ the request Of the Secretary Of state, In purs-
ance of a resolution Of the Senate, a new work on
Japan and the Oriental nations, which was trans
united to the Senate, with high commentator;
and although we are reliably informed, 1t contains
a great variety of new and valuable Information Of
immediate interest," both TO the Government and
commerce of the country, it has never yet been
Printed For all these valuable labors, and his
time, services, and expenses incurred therein, we
regret to observe, by his said memorial, that he
has never received any remuneration from any
quarter whatever, His published documents have
been regarded with favor by the scientific and
commercial world at home and abroad, republsh-
ed by many of the leading journals ofGreat Bri-
tain and her Oriental possessions, and translated
into several European languages, as new and inn
portant contributions to Oriental geography.
The population of the Oriental countries exceeds
six hundred and fifty millions, and is spread over
region most OF which presents new fields for Anne
rican commerce. If we possessed an Executive
sufficiently enlightened, and with capacity ade-
quate TO the exigencies Of his position, he would
long since have adopted the policy recommended
by the New York and Baltimore memorialists
10 General Taylor and himself, of opening
and xtending trade with those regions,
through the agency Of new Ind specially
qualified Commissioner to China, in the per-
son of Mr.. Palmer But, It would appear, that
after treating him with coldaess and neglect, and
yet eagerly aveiling of the valuable Information
con ,aned in his several documents and commu.
nicatons respecting those countries, and disre-
garding his high claims and recommendations as
unworthy of consideration, Mr.. Fillmore has seen
tit to send TO the wi!ds Of East Tennessee for
political partisan and ordinary county court lawyer,
not even applicant for The post, as Is believed,
who knows nothing whatever of either Oriental
geography, commerce, languages, or poiity, TO be
entrusted with Of the most important of all our
foreign missions, in the present posture Of Ameri-
can interests and commerce on the Pacific coast,
and in Eastern and Southern Asia.
We consider this case of peculiar hardship and
injustice to Mr. Palmer !; and We are warranted in
regarding il as evidence of the policy by which
Mr.. FILLMORE is governed in his diplomatic appoint
meats. Indeed, the deaf ear he has turned to the
suggestions and recommendations of nearly all the
leading merchants Of this city and Baltimore, en-.
gagged in the China, India, and Pacific trade, on
the importance of extending our Oriental COM
merce, and the appointment of properly qualified
Commissioner, possessing their confidence, for the
mission, leads u.s. irresistibly, to the conclusion
that they have nothing whatever to hope or expect
for the promotion Of that commerce during the
existence of Mr., Fillmores weak, vascillating, and
anti commercial administration.

has permeated and leavened the world
with its principles of love, peace and
righteousness.
A few years since this foul spirit medi-
tated descent upon the fair banks of the
Columbia to aid in adjusting the boundary
of 490 5o', but it was nobly repulsed by
both England and our own country. More
recently Mexican ignorance, seconded by
Saxon cupidity, suffered this spirit to stain
the borders of the Rio Grande; and with
in the present year this same diabolical
spirit entering few of the baser Sort,
has shamefully polluted the shores of
Cuba.
Let this spirit-this avarice-this in
Justlce-this covetousness-thi spirit of
stealing, be rebuked and condemned. Let
plunder be the business only of savages
and pirates. Let the motto of every
honorable man, and every honorable
nation be "fat justiciam, ruat, calum."
Never among us let the foul spirit of
find a home or even a foot
hold. Let it never spread its crimson
wings over our mountains Or Valleys
never set its polluting foot on the grave or
the heritage of Washington.
When civil liberty goes forth to conquer,
she goes forth to mark her burial place.
When our Senators, who minister at the
altars Of justice and freedom, shall stretch
forth their hands to plunder and despoil
other nations, they shall both deserve and
receive a fate as horrible as that which
'ncircled LAGOON; the fingers of justice
shall write on the walls of our Senate
Chamber, that awful sentence that blazed
IN the walls of Belshazzar's palace, and
'ur nation shall wither under the consum-
ng curses of both earth and heaven.

BROTHER JoNATHAN-The waist OF
his coat may be ridiculously short the
tails Of it ridiculously long his short col
lar may absorb the produce of whole field
of flax; his pantaloons may not como be-
low the tops Of his boots, and his straps
may have the air of preventer-braces, to
keep the combinations from going over
his head !; he may be in short the most un-
presentable man you can conceive of, and
'' most mockable at court ;" but beneath
the uncouthncss of his dress, and the fire.
quent bezarrcrie of his manner, there is
such man, and such soul as only Yam
keedom and the nineteenth century can
produce or educate. We start with the
intention of making flourish. Thorough
paced, full-blooded, conceited, stubborn,
imyerturable, go-ahead Americans; not
afraid to try to do anything ever done by
any other living man, from making baby's
go-cart to the construction of an empire
and not a bit more afraid to attempt what
no man ever did, if either money, fame or
power are to be made out of it. We are
precisely the people to make the biggest
of all possible fourishes, and blow the big
gest of all possible double G bombadoons

MEssRs. EDIToRs =
L am glad to notice that, in your last
emission, attention is called to the want Of
a good HOTEL, in this village.
No one thing, perhaps, contributes more
to the favorable character of q village, than
a good Public House and the experience
of every traveller, in a strange place, proves
that decided estimation is formed of the
inhabitants from the hotcl-his temporary
home. Is it miserable one : he not only
shuns the place in future, but takes good
care to caution his friends to give it 'wide
BERTH
The fact is too we'll known to be con-
cealed, that for the last twenty years, we
have been reproached by all travellers, for
the very Indifferent accommodations fur
nishcd them in this prosperous and grow
ing community. While business and capi-
tai have increased more than ten-fold, there
still remains but the old, dilapidated, barn
like building, which served our ancestors
in olden times, when the advent of stran-
ger in this then isolated quarter, was an
cventful era.
Truc-thc enterprise of an individual
has recently erected a commodious Hotel
on the Connecticut bank Of the river and
however much it may be regretted that it
is not conducted upon temperance princi-
pies, the proprietor will merit the thanks
Of many, whose business leading them here,
have formerly been under the necessity of
either proceeding to Stonington Point, or
'respassing upon the hospitality of some
private citizen for the favor of lodging.
That the building of the hotel, above
mentioned, has not been a losing operation
% the proprietor, is already demonstrated
BY its enlargement, and the liberal support
t receives while it is quite as certain that
t does not meet the requirements of the
village of Westerly. 1 am well satisfied that
/ hotel, properly constructed, would not
prove a losing investment, and should an
impetus be given to the enterprise from the
fgM quarter, and prosecuted with energy
or single day, ample means could be
.cadily raised for the erection of a Hotel
hat would no longer discrcdit this COM
nanity. X. Y.
