Mat- ters are settling down into comfortable quiescence. ‘The cabinet will remain as it is. Mr. Webster will eontinue the chief friend and adviser of the adminis- tration—a sort of amicus curie—to reside in Marsh- field. There is now every prospect of the attention of the government being directed to a project of the greatest magnitude and importance—we mean the negotiating ot a tariff treaty between the United States and the principal trading nations of Europe. It seems that the British government have been busily engaged during the last year, in collect, ing information respecting *the commercial affairs of this country; and we understand that Daff Green, whilst in London, communicated to them a consi- derable amount of datarelative to our trade, manu- factures, and commerce. The debate in the House of Commons, a report ofgwhich we gave in our paper of yesterday, is only the first}premonitory symptom of the growth of more just and liberal free trade doc- trines amongst the leading statesn en of Great Bri- tain. Last year the English government wished our administration to make this business the subject of a special mission; but as this was not done during the last session of Congress, it 1s highly probable that the British Government will now take the first step towards the entrance on the negotiation, and appoint a special mission, similar to that which brought Lord Ashburton to our shores, and which terminated so advantageously for both parties. The objects contemplated by the proposed new commercial treaty are infinitely superior to any ever projected in the diplomatic intercourse of na- tiens on subjects cennected with their commeree. If the project be fully carried out, it will be the great lever by which this country will be elevated from the distress, embarrassment, and dishoner in which the commercial disasters of the last few years have plunged it. The establishment of the commercial intercourse of England and the United States on the broad principles of free trade, and reciprocity of interest, 1s the only remedy for the existing evils which oppress us, and for the removal of which our hack politicians are vainly floundering from one expedient to another. We believe that this is the view entertained by all intelligent men,whose know- ledge of the subject enables them to form an accu- rate judgment. A very cursory glance at the necessary conse- quences of such a commercial treaty as that now contemplated, will lead to a sufficient arpreciation of its vast value and importance. The manufac- tures of England would be introduced into this coun- try onthe payment of a just and moderate tariff England would thus be,materially benefitted, and thousands of her starving artisans be provided with e:aployment, whilst we would reap no inconsidera- ble advantage from the introduction, in this cheap form, of her commodities. But then, on the other haand,the ports of Great Britain would be opened for our agricultura! products, on a reciprocal principle of equity and free trade. It is impossivle to exagge- rate the advantage which would accrue to this ceun- try bysuch an exchange. This is emphatically the great harvest-field of the world. Already we have untold millions of acres, teeming annually with the fruits of the earth, and each succeeding year is bringing immense tracts of the most fertile soil un- der successful cultivation. Of what infinite—of what vital importance is it, then,jto have the markets of Earope opened up for the importation of our agri- cultural wealth, which constitutes the very stamina of our national stability and prosperity. Were the proposed treaty negotiated, a permanence would be given to the prices of our agricultural products—the trade of both countries, in all its branches, would be augmented—commerce would receive tenfold addi- tional secarities—the States would gradually reco- ver from their bankrupt condition—capital,at present unemployed, would find safe and profitable means of investinent—and the full and flowing tide of na- tional prosperity, would soon sweep away all traces of the ruins with which an ev.1 day had strewed the land. Is this all chimerical ? Can,this be called building castlesin the air?’ Every man who soberly reflects on the matter, must perceive that we have been drawing no fanciful picture of the happy results which must follow the adoption of a sound, ration- al, liveral course of commercial policy between the great nations of the old and new world. We hear a great deal eaid about re-ch :rtering a United States Bank—about the dishonor of repudiation—about a tariff—about doing something for the country. This all unprofitable talk. The only solid gro ind on which the national anxiety can rest the sole of its foot, is that afforded by the prospect ot a comprehensive and libe- ral arrangement of the commercial relations of the «lnited States, and England and France—the chief trading nations of Europe. {n a very short time the wisdom of such an arrangement would be appa- rentin the visible and tangible fruits which such sound and rational policy would create. They are the visionaries, who dream of national prosperity to be achieved by banks, tariffs and local schemes. We cannot imagine any subject more worthy of the attention of the most exalted statesmanship, than that now presented. There is a certain set of men about President Tyler, who are endeavoring just new, to divert his attention, by paltry schemes for the creation and organization of a party. Mr. Tyler should awake to nobler aspirations and to higher aims He has now an opportunity of dismissing the self seeking blockheads, who are try- ing so hard to make him forget the high responsibi- lities and pressing duties ot his position. A subject is now presented to him worthy of the closest atten- tion of the most gigantic intellect. It isone,we may remark, eminently adapted to the grasp of Mr. Web- ster’smind. If the President and his Cabinet were to devote themselves with becoming earnestness to the work ef settling this greatand momenteus ques- tion of the commercial in.ercourse of the principal nations of the world, they would confer a benefit on the country, as enduring as the country itself, and compared with which, all the ephemeral pro- jects of huckstering'politicians would sink into utter insignificance. Whilst speaking of this subject, we may remark, it is impossible for any lover of the interests of the human tamily, wo avoid the expression of his gratifi- cation at the epread of doctrines se ‘intimately con- rather the attempt to obtai that decision. unanimous verdict. the case has taken, that our statements r have the mattertformally settled.

These commissioners had not proceeded far in their investigation, when they discovered the momentous im- portance attending the result of their deliberations; they soon found that they had either to recommend the total abandonment of our penitentiary system, the most popu- lar in the civilized world, or devise some means of avoid- ing and removing the objections of the mechanical com: munity. Mr. Ely Moore was president of a numerous association of mechanics in the city of New York, styled the “Trade’s Union,” and presumed to be, and doubtless was, a faithful representative of the mechanical interest on these questions. On an interview with these commissioners, 1 suggested the policy of employing the prison convictsin the manu- facture of articles of which the supply for the consump tion of this country was chiefly imported, and was much ratified to learn that the same suggestion had been made y others, and met with th pprobation. It was evident that the§ manufacture of such articles would steer clear of any st cause of complaint on the part ofthe mechanics, and be the true policy of the State overnment. ‘The commissioners recommended this po- ficy in their report, and elaborately set forth their rea- sons for so doing. See Assembly document, 1835, No. 135, the result of which was at a law was passed at the ses. sion of 1835, May 11th, ot which law the 7th section reads thus : “ No mechanical trade shall hereatter be taught to convicts in the State prisons of this State, except the ma king of those articles of which the chief supply for the consumption of the couatry is imported from foreign countries.” “Sec.8. The inspectors of the prison shall have power te employ citizens from abroad, for the purpose of teach: ing new branches of business in the State prisons, which are not pursued in this State.” Notwithstanding the prohibition of the 7th, and the dis- cretionary powers conferred by the sth section of this law, all of the trades objected to by the mechanics, with one exception, have heen taught, and the convicts still employed at them with impunity, and the old contracts either renewed or extended subsequent te the passage of thialaw. This course on the part of the officers of the prison still farther incensed the mechanics, and in the manulacturing districts of the State, “' anti-State prison monopoly” became a political hobby, on which candi- dates were sure to ride into office. In the great political campaign of 1840, the odious repn- tation and government of the, prison was turned with eine ane ace the democratic party in this'part of the State ; and as by the political revolution of last fall it was evident that the democracy would again assume its government, [felt much selicitude as a citizen of Sing Sing—the county of Westchester—and as a democrat, that the institution sheuld be placed in the hands of per- sons whe were disposed to carry out a reformation in its administration.

Mr. Hogan never told Mrs. Dulay that he knew her husband, or that he was dectored by a doctor ont West, and asserts that it is altogether false. He told her that he had been applied to to give Dulay Bris- tol’s Sarsaparilla, and that he should have sent it to him if it had been sent for; and thinks that if Dulay had taken it in time, he would still be a living witness to its good effects, a8 many are who have proclaimed to the public their wonderful recoveries from the most loathsome dis- eases, by the wonvlerful effects ot Bristol’s Sarsaparilla.

The packet ship Rochester, arrived yesterday , April Sth, alew was passed submitting certain contracts for convict’s labor, to the opinion of the Attor- ney Generalon the question of their validity,and making ita misdemeanor for an officer of the prison to employ, or consent to the employment of convicts at trades prohibi- ted by law. This law effectually (exposed the govern- ment of the prison since the law of 1835. It was evident that the Attorney General would annul several of the contracts, and it was ascertained that others not submitted to his examination, would expire before he was required te make his report ; in short, it was found that by the violations of this lew by the officers of the prison, that within a few weeks from the first of January, more than halfof the convicts would be idle, and that within the year over six hundred would be out of employment; and yet most of the officers who had produced this state of things were clamorous applicaats for re appointment. In this state of things what was to be done? If the old officers were now re-appointed, it would require the whole arength of the party to sustain them, and cven then we would be working in a bad cause. Retired as a private citizen on the products of my own industry, I was not disposed to meddle with public affairs; but knowing that ‘what is every man’s Basin in fact no man’s business,” after much reflection on the sub. ject, I perceived the necessity of having at least one mem- ber in the board of inspectors who could comprehend the nature and importance of the trust he assumed—who would perceive the interest of the institution, and feel dis. poted to govern it accordingly—who was capable of de- fending it against the assaults of its enemies, and conduct- ing it out of its present embarrassments. With a view ofstarting a candidate for inspector of this class, I called on several prominent members of the demo. cratic party in the city of New York, who united in re- commending John W. Edmonds for the office. Mr. Ed- monds at firet declined to serve, but afterwards consented. Then and there I was requested to enter the field as another candidate. This suggestion was entirely new to me, and I objected on account of my intend- ed absence to Europe the coming season. Within afew 4 ‘er this, | was informed that a Board of Inspectors pon by acertain clique of politi in Westchester county; that the honorable senior Senator of the Second District, who headed the clique, was pledged to their appointment ; and that the subordinate otticers were all promised to some of his retainers. I doubted the truth of this statement at fi but recollecting that honorabie gentleman left hi: t in the Senate at Utica last fall to attend our county nominations—that he pro cured himself to be made one of the congressional dele- gates, and lett his seat and public duties again to attend the congressional nomination—together with his general conduct and character, I concluded that the report was probably true ; and on consult ng with many friends on the subject, finally consented to become a candidate for the office of Inspector, provided it could be ascertained that the honorable Senator would undertake to effect the appointment of his packed Board. With a view of keeping an eye on this matter, I repair- ed to Albany at the commencement of the session of the the Legislature, and bad an interview with the said Sena- tor Hunter on the subject ef the prison appointments, in which I pressed upon him the importance of splitting the ty of money. vaults of the banks, and has been loaned at call of such denominations as will be best available. pay them.

Twe evenings after this the Senator invited an inter: view with the two members of Assembly from West- chester county, forthe purpose of agreeing on the nomi- nations. Instead ‘of a private interview, as expected by the members, they found the senater attended by two of his political friends, one the member of congress elect, for whose nomination he had shown so much solicitude, and the other a candidate for the office of loan commis- sioner. Itsoon became evident that these extra members were present for the purpose of sustaining the senator in carrying his packed board of inspectors. e honor- able senator of the second, who always begins and ends with professions of democracy,” son presented a list of five names for inspectors, all good and true men, of his Plt clique, three of whom were members of the old joard of inspectors, who had sanctioned the contracts made in violation of law, lately annulled by the Attorney General Many efforts were made to effect a change of some of the names for oth rs less objectionable, but in vain,fexcept one unimportant alteration of a new member. This conduct of the honorable Senator induced me to suspect what was before generally credited, that he in- tended to devote the patronage of the prison as formerly, upport of his local clique in this county, without regard to the interest of the institution or party at large, and I resolved to oppose the accomplishment ot bis designs; and with the aid of my friends succeeded in satisfying the Executive of the propriety of selecting other men fora majority of the board. ‘This exasperated the honorable senior senator of the second, for though he “always begins and ends with democracy,” there is a deficiency in the middle.
