TN CONNECTION with the usual matter
L political and literary, contained in the UNI
TED STATES REVIEW, we intend to republish all
tho state papers extant on the question of state
rights as announced in the Virginia Resolution,
of '9S and 49, The publication will embrace
also the works of standard writers, such a.
John Taylor of Caroline, whose works are now
nearly out of print. These valuable political
data will be carefully collected, and when com.
plcted, will furnish a complete constitutional
history of our Federal Union. The subscrip
ton list of the StateRights Register" (t6s
prospectus of which was issued under the on
probation of the Democratic members and
senator's in congrcss) will be furnished regular.
~ with the Rerie,o from this date, and we hope
each subscriber will feel that he is performing
duty to a great and sacred political prncipk
by extending the list of names already on our
books.
1t is time for us to go go back to those pure
principles upon which the great fabric Of De.
mocracy rests; principles originated and defined
by those who created, and best understood the
true meaning of the constitution. 1t is time
that the friends Of state sovereignty should raj
~ around some common nucleus, to resist the
wild latitudinarianism of the age, and evident
tendency Of the republic towards concentration
to end at best in mixed monarchy. 1t 10
time for each statcs-rights man to feel that he
must give his own personal individual influence
to the defense Of the very cornerstone Of our
constitutional government
We send the Review to the subscribers Of
the Statc.Rights Register, and feel confident
that they will respond heartily to the call.
The true Democracy have great battle to
fight, great principle Of sclfgoyernmcnt to
uphold, an inspired Constitution to defend.
May each one of us feel that it is an individual
duty.

MATTERS IN CHINA.-The newspaper ac-
counts and letters from China, as late as
Feb. 18th, disclose the fact that the civil war
in that country is likely to be of long contin-
uance, the insurgents at the North not OBJ
tanning the decided advantage which was ex-
pected, and which would have given them the
control Of the country. The continuance of
the disturbances has plunged the inhabitants
of many of the provinces into helowes depths
Of misery and destitution.
A writer from Canton says that the fact
is now well established that the greater part
Of the attacking force which now surrounds
that city is composed Of pirates, and censures
the foreign powers, now tina. this fact is we'll
ascertained, that they do not interfere to put
an end to such state of affairs. The last
attack made by these pirates was on a grand
scale. They approached the city with be-
tween four and five hundred junks, contain
ing about ffteer thousand men. They were,
however repulsed by the Imperialists. 1t is
stated that vessels cannot now get insurance
from the perils of piracy in China river, and
the camp Of the rebels outside of the city is
rich with the spoils of the surrounding coun-
try, they Offering for sale silks and teas in
large quantities.
The American house of A. Heard & Co.
have established themselves at the city oi
Foo-chow-foo, having purchased lot of land
fronting the river, at high price, on which
they have erected buildings.

1g- PHILADELPHIA MuEcIPAL ELECTION
The annual election of the consolidated city
was held on Tuesday last The contest was
spirited one. Last year the Americans
carried nearly every ward in the city, electing
nearly all the Select and Common Council
the City Commissioner, City Treasurer, &c
Tuesday last, things wey reversed again.
The Americans having been beaten in four
teen wards out OF the twenty-four. The Dem
ocrats and Reformers have carried eight of
the eleven Select Council elected, and have
elected 3s of the Common Council, equally
dividing that body between them and the
Americans.
The result OF the City Treasurer and CITY
Commissioner is close. Hagert, the Whig
candidate for Treasurer, who received the
support Of the Democrats, is elected by a
snall majority-l55 over Morton, the Ameri.
can candidate. Sherry, the Democratic can
d.date for City Commissioner, is elected over
Hill the American candidate, by a majority
OF la. In so close a vote, the official count
may make material difference.
