ENGLAND AND MEXICO,

The New York Courier and Enquirer publishes
the following extract of letter from prominent
English statesman to his correspondent in New
York:
"louwill perceive by the Queens Speech that
our Government have found it expedient to inter
tere in Mexican Affairs, far to demand and en-
force justice to British subjects This after Lord
Malmesbury's declaration to your Minister, NAV

fair-minded people will acknowledge it was render
| ed necessary by the course of your President
when Lord Malmesbury made the declaration he
did, 1T was based upon your Minister'S declaration
of forbearance by your Government. That declar-
alton was met in the spirit which it appeared to de-
mand. And yet no did your President re-
ccive that declaration from Lord Malmesbury, than
he deliberately proceeded to violate the implied
| faith upon which it was made, by asking of your
Congress- the right to seize the two Northern Pro.
rinces of Mexico, and garrison them with American
troops! This justly excited the indignation of Min
lsers; and they showed their appreciation of your
Presidents conduct, by ordering our Naval Com
mander to act; and added force to the proceeding

that further forbearance, after what appeared in
your Presidents Message, was impossible Both

and Lord Malmcsbury, where Justly indignant at
the action of your Executive, and would have been
sustained by the country in adopting still more
decided course. They contented themselves, how
ever by treating his act with contempt, and bv

the world to their proceeding

if this country and the United States should ever

result of some act folly by your President for

Erening Post, firm has manufactured and sold
during the last three months 400 sewing machines
and are now producing and selling one hundred
per day. These vary in prices from fifty to one
hundred dollars each, and this house has $500, 900
invested, and keeps four hundred men employed
Another firm has sold during the last year ii 900
sewing machines Their factory is in Boston, but
they employ in New York city one hundred and
nifty cabinet makers to produce stands and orna-
mental covers for the instruments. Another firm
sells about three hundred and fifty machines week
ly. There are many smaller firms engaged in the
business. 1t would be well if the poor women of
the cities could be furnished with these machines
to lessen their tolls. The benevolent societies,
who find that aid to the needy is always best in
the shape'ot honest employment, might do much
good by efforts to furnish each poor family one
these labor-saving instruments.
Vivier, the horn-player, is as famous for his wit
and practical joking propensties as for his musical
talents. The latest good thing recorded of him is
the following: Like all artists, he lived in garnet,
OF which he is not always able to pay the rent. His
late landlord gave him warning in consequence of
the sleepless nights produced by the musicians
horn. There was no help for it; out poor vivier
must go, but not without revenge. The very day
of his congo he carried up calf in its infancy and
oy the time his congo expired, it had grown almost
into bullock. The key was given to the proprie-

conceived. No means of getting the animal alive
down six flight of narrow stairs had been invented
and so the slaughter was compelled to take place in
the garrett to the utter disgust of the other tenants
leading to innumeraple lawsuits against the land
lord, who is quite beside himself, and threatens
destruction to Viver in consequence.
