Nrxr to Uncle Toms Cabin, the Fort Du.
qussnc Letter of Mr., Buchanan is likely to get
the widest European circulation. The despOtic
courts arc so delighted With the confession Of
universal dcseneracy and corruption on this
side Of the Atlantic, and with the prophecies Of
speedy downfall Of the Union, that they give
1t a free course everywhere. The censorship Of
the press, which snubs SO much else, can lind
nothing to peck at in this compedious edition Of
the Sorrows of wCrtcr. 1t has already been
translated into several languages according to
the correspondents Of the Newark Daily .Adrer-
tiser, from Florence, which says
"Having been eOnspicuOusly brought into
court by the London and Paris press, the shA-
ping medium Of American Intelligence, it was
forthwith eagerly repeated in German, Dutch,
Spanish, Italian, and even some Of the Sclavonie
dialects"
We shall, doubtless, next hear Of it from the
banks Of the Ganges; and the poor Chinese may
yet wipe his eye over it, from the central dow
cry depths Of the Celestial Land.
