ONHIHHIDufI
GKSTLEMEs: Your letter Of the oath has been re-
ceiyed, IN which you ask my opinion as 20 the
value OF the English Exchequer Reports from Price
downwards to this time, 10 an American lawyer,
and to the erpediency of reprinting them in this
country. OF the high value Of these Reports both
on the Pleas and Equity sides Of the Court, have
not the least doubt; the decisions Of this Court for
the last fifteen or twenty years, both Equity and in
Common Law, being entitled 10 equal respect with
any others in England. | should think an Aneri-
car lawyers library essentially incomplete with
out them.
am, gentlemen, very respectfully, yours

CF The King of Prussia has rust perpe-

u The King of Prussia has just perpe-
trated another of those peculiar political
feats which have been frequent in his ca
reer, and not only are inconsistent with
every obligation of one who claims to rule
''by the Grace of God" but are ever repug
nant to common honesty. Three years ago
he established Constitution for his coun-
try, and solemly swore to observe its pro-
visions. One of these was that there
should be an Upper Chamber in the Legis-
lature, consisting not only Of hereditary
members and members appointed by royal
nomination, but also of few chosen by
public election. For some time past bill
has been before the Chambers to abolish
this elective feature, so as TO render the
Senate merely hereditary and royalty
appointed body. The subject has been
extensively discussed in the journals, as
well as in the Chambers, and finally the
Lower House rejected the bill. There
upon, instead of submitting to the decis-
ion, as the Constitution and his oath bound
him to do, this pious and patriotic King
comes out with decree on his own sole
authority, striking out the obnoxious fea-
ture from the Constitution. Of course
this act can have no legal or moral valid
ity, but it has the validity of force and
will stand accordingly. 1t is done with
out any excuse or reason except the within
of its author, for it cannot be pretended
that the few elective members who would
sit in the Senate under the abrogated
clause OF the Constitution would endanger
the peace and order of the monarchy in
any respect. However, it is only Of a
piece with the general nduct of this
King.
With such perjured tricksters as this
and as Louis Napoleon, swaying the desti-
MES of Europe. we are told by great poll
ticians that ali is tranquil and well estab-
lished, and the danger of revolutions al
lsyed forever!

OUR PRIMARY ELECTIONS.

The Wings of this City held their Pri-
mary Meetings for the choice of Pfesi-
DENTAL Delegates yesterday morning-the
last Primary Meetings, we trust, that will
ever be held in our City prior to a radical
change OF the system. We say this is no
spirit of dissatisfaction with the result at
this time, for We are not displeased with it.
Though the smoke Of the battle has not
fully blown away, and viii not until the
Delegates to Baltimore are chosen, yet we
are confident that at least three (and we
hope four of the six Delegates chosen
from this City with WiIliansburgh) will
concur in the opinion that Mr.. Fillmore
ought not to be nominated, and viii vote
accordingly from frst to last. Gen. Scott

A Cincinnati correspondent in The Ifib-
une of Wednesday, speaking Of Gov. Morohead's
late Address in that City, and its illusions to
River and Harbor improvements, sees fit to say
He asked any one the millions freely scattered
along the entire Eatern seaboard and contrast them
with the few stakes driven into the margin of lakes
or a snag boat Samson or tohsu few old stumps
from the immediate channels OF the Mississippi Gov.
Morehead right there ia meaning Ia this, and Tie
East and the influences subsidized by her, understand
it, and probably determined to the best Of the
power while II lasts"
Now, a man who don't know better than to
write such trash as this, ought to stop writing
fine. hand and 60 to school while. The East
il not and never has been hostile to River and
Harbor improvements on the contrary, We stood
in the Senate last session and saw such men as
Truman Smith, Roger $. Baldwin, John Davis,
the Vermont Senators, &C., doing their utmost
to carry the River and Harbor BILL working al
night and risking the loss OF the Appropriations
for that purpose, while Cass, Douglas, and others
for whom the West has done everything and is
expected to do still more, were doing their worst
to stife the bill and not allow a vote to be taken
upon it, well knowing that it would pass If the
question were taken. Mind you, T. r. 10 nd YOU

health. The Philadelphia papers report him
much worse, which we are happy to say is not the
case.
The doings of the Anti-Slavery Convention at
Rochester is given in detail. During the afternoon
the Convention was much excited by report that
the slave-driyers were in the city on the track Of
three fugitiyes from bondage. 1t was understood,
howe, er, that the painting chattels had taken sud-
den leave of Rochester by special train on the
UNDERGROUND Railroad. Our readers will appre-
ciate the extreme dread of agitation which induced
the slaye-hunters to attempt to strike their game
at the very doors of this Convention.
From Charleston we learn that Mr.. Desaussiere
accepts the Office of U. S. Senator from South
Carolina, in place of Mr. Rhett, resigned.
