We beg leave to say that this particular
accusation against Mr.. B. looks as though
they are not yet grounded" in the first
principles of admitted commercial truth.
The Times intimates that the dinner
recently rendered to Mr. Belmont by the
merchants of New York was planned in
this city. If so, the leading Wings of
that city are sold to the Dutch-the DEM
ocrats-for at least half the signers of
that invitation are Wings, good and true.

Wing principles, as for their shrewdness

They are the very last men in the world
to be used for political purpose by the
Democrats and with all who know New
York we'll, the fact that they step for
ward to tender MIR. Belmont the compli-
ment of public dinner prior to his de-
parture for the Hague, is sufficient to
prove that, in a commercial point of view,
his appointment is capital one; and fur
ther, that his career in New York has
been such as fairly to entitle him to be
regarded as one of the city's more useful
enterprising and thoroughly Americanish
business men. For they would compli.

CUMBERLAND Coal TRADE.-The Cum.
berland coal trade last week was large
amounting to 5,436 tons by canal, and
S,429 by railroad.
Considerable damage was done at Cum.
berland by storms on Monday and Tuesday.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
paay have notified companies engaged IN
the coal trade that, under the new
allotment, they cannot furnish them with
the number of cars heretofore supplied,
and, in consequence Of this, there will be
a diminution in the amount of coattrans-
ported to market.

Spirit Of the Morning Press.

The Republic discusses the rise and pro-
gress of Britain's commercial greatness,
in connection with her designs as mani
tested in her positions. on the Fisheries
question in issue between her Government
and ours. The editor holds that she de-
sires to deprive US of the privilege of
fishing on the banks, in order to take from
US that nursery of American seamen; and
that she demands the privilege of parti-
cipating in our coasting trade for her
North American Colonies, intending if
she can get it, to make it operative for all
her subjects who may choose to pretend
Identification with tho provinces. We
are destined to have an excited time not
long hence, over this question of throwing
open our coasting trade to other nations,
the interest of the interior and other nom
ship owning States of the Union, being to
decrease the prices of coast-wise freight
ing as much as possible.
The Unions leader treats of the sub
treasury law and it's infractions. The
editorgently hints that the Wings are, after
all, its only infractors. Not SO fast, MIR.
Union. We might name you more than one
appointee of the Administration of Presi-
dent Polk who should have been prose-
cuted under its penal clause. We recol-
lect, too, the beseeching letters of the
Administration of Mr.. Van Buren,, to it's
host of thieving public depositors, begging
them for Gods sake to be little more
honest, if but by way of saving the repu-
tation ofthe party. So far, there has been
no opportunity for any appointee of the
present Administration to rob the trca-
sury of the United States. Such oppor-
tunities will doubtless occur sooner or
later. When this shall happen, we will
see whether they are dealt with by the
powers IN esse in the very commendable
spirit which they have so far manifested
in stirring up Wings recently displaced,
with a sharp stick" wherever their &C
counts have not been satisfactory. There
is no reason to believe that they will not.
Yet, the proof of the pudding is only in
the eating. The Union also argues to
show that the Albany Argus clique arc
really working themselves without the
pale of "the party" Its remarks on
this subject are clinchers.
The Intelhgencer declines entering upon
the discussions of the Earl of Stirling
claim" on the grounds that it is essen
TALLY private matter, and that no space
which that journal can accord to the
subject will suffice for its proper elucida-
| ton.
The Clipper discusses the present atti-
tude of Russia towards the rest of Eu.
rope, inclining to the opinion that she is
rapidly meliorating the condition of her
serfs, and in weakening the lesser Powers
of the continent, and is doing nothing
which the friends of liberty should regret.
The editor, if we translate him CORRECTLY
conceives it happy that the Car is about
to protect Islamism.
The Sun publishes a card from the
Messrs. Ewing, to explain away the allie
cation that they had improperly received
some 100000 from the last Government
payment to the Pottawatomies. This
charge appeared in many papers. The
Messrs. Ewing emphatically deny the
charge.

i'm the beauties Of the armament; and if darkness
be upon the deep, then its mysteries are elo-

that can never cease to inspire strange and
pleasant Iancies.
Not such is the desoate city; the city of the
silent dead All is of the past; there is no voice
iof man TO tell of them that dwelt there. The
land is laid waste, and the earth mourncth and
radcth away. The Lord hath done that which
Ihe had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that
he had commanded in the days Of old he hath
thrown down and hath not pitied.'
