He wants to put in a man thet will take the democracy. Who will he be? Tue Courier axp Enquimee versus Tur New Yorx Heratp.—Thej annexed very droll article, which we take from the “ Courier” of yesterday, gives another evidence of the loss of Colonel Webb’s wits, in addition to’his recent flare up in the bonnet business :— Navat News-—We have learned from authority on which we place reliance, that Wales, the informer, on whose unsustained jetineny peng Spencer was con- Jemned, has been discharged from the naval service of the United States. The recommendations of Commander McKenzie, appear thus farto have been not at all eftective. _ Herel of Yesterday. ¢ foregoing: characteristic paragraph may ib, injure Mr. Wales, with those whe do not are hones less character of the alien, whose duty and pleasure it is to attack daily, American stocks, Amarican credit, Ameri- can character ofevery kind, and indeed, every thing that is not comnected with the sovereign to whom he owes al- the same time that hedares to meddle with thing American, i doubtless he is weil paid Yor it. That an alien foreigner should continue his attachments to hi ve- reign, and the institutiens of the country to which he owes allegiance, is rightand proper; but what are we te think of those, whe calling themselves Americans, are prepared to sustain among us, a foreign press, davoted to the indiscriminate abuse of every thing American? At Mr. Wales's request we give the following letters, showing why he is not now in zervice,.and the utter fal: sity of the Herald statement. ‘U.S. Baia Somena, New York, April 29th, 1648. ; Drak Stn :—I cannot but commend you for declining to. go again to sea, in the capacity of Purser’s Steward. I coxsider that your strict i iy and the business capa. city that you possess, entitle you t ituation much more advantageous in a pecuniary’ point of view; and it would give me sincere pleastre to be mstramental in procuring such an onefor you. If 1 cam aid you in so doing, t shall expect you to call upon me, and with my best wish. es for your presperity,* Tremain your friend, (Signed) H. M. HIESKELL: Purser U. 8.N. Mr. Wales having declined foing to sea, Commander McKenzie hos given him the following letter, which will insure him aplace in-tomeGounting House. The bearer, Mr. James W. Wales, has performed the duty of Commender’s Clerk for me, en board the U. 8. brig Somers, for some time, to my entire satisfaction.— Ile writes a good hand; is very accurate, and is tho- roughly honest, honorable, and worthy of any conf dence. I cheerfully recommend him to any one who may be desirous of employing him, (Signed). ~ ALEX. SLIDELL McKENZIE. New York,8d May, 1842. From these documents it will appear to every sane man that our “falsity” is no falsity at all. We stated the. simple fact, that Wales had left the service, and’ Webb confirms it, with two certificates in corroboration. This only makes assurance dou- bly sure. We don’t see that “ stocks,” or “ credit,” or even “ Amazone honnets,” are concerned in the matter. Bitt poor Webb appearsto be perfectly be- side himself when he talks or writes of the Herald. Yet he isnot alone in the matter. On the other side of the water we'find the like samples of insanity The fantous “ London Foreign Quarterly Re- view,” and_a whole host of English newspapers, call ws the “ Corypheus of the-herd ef democracy” in America—the Tepresentative of the awful democra- cy of Ametica—the very impersonation of moboc- racy in America. Qn thisside of the water we-are charged with being the favorite organ of Queen Vic- toria—the representative of a? foreign government. Amidst so many$ contradictions, in Europe and America, we begin to wonder ourself who the devil we are. It is very evident, however, that we are something, and if the doctrine ef transmigration be true, who kaows but the spirit of Zoroaster, of Alexander of Macedon, of Cesar, of Napoleon, and of Bennett, is only One and the same? Vive la ba- gatelle Vacanonp Lecrurers.—The public are in a fair way of becoming sufficiently enlightened relative the merits of many of the philosophers and orators who are travelling over the country, giving lectures on Mesmerism, Temperance, Poetry and Religion. Many of these gentry are as ignorant as they are impudent, being fellows who are altogether unable to follow an honest calling with any kind of suc- cess. But what is still Jworse, great numbers of them are abandoned profligates, plundering the community, and spending the proceeds of their “‘in- vellectual feasts,” like the vagabond in the parable, in all sorts of Fiotous living." A series of most disgraceful developements have been made respecting ene of those impos- » who has, under the mame of Dr. Charles W. eton, been travelling over the Union as the ge- alagentof the New Jersey State Temperance Society. We published last week aletter froma correspondent in Charleston, giving an account of the elopement of a respectable widow lady withan itinerating iminister; of the Baptist persuasion. It seems that;this' Appleton was the person, and thathe had been introduced very fayorably to the notice of the Charlesten community by the Rev. Drs. Brantley and Mendenhall, to whom the scoundrel was introduced by the Rev.Mr, Webb of New Bruns- wick, and the Rey. J.C. Harrison of Bordentown. It appears that Mr. Harrison, having heard the real character of Appleton, after giving him ‘the letter of introduction by which he has been enabled to im- pose on the people of Charlestoa, wrote to Drs. Brantley and Mendenhall, in order to warnfthem re- specting him. The fellow has three wives living, one in Richmond, Ind., the second in York, Pa., and the third ia New Brunswick, N.J. His third marriage was thus announced some time ago :— “ Married, in New Branewick, on Thursday, 20th ult., by the Rey. G. 8. Webb, Doctor Charles W. Appleton, nt ofthe New Jersey State Temperance So- Tacy Maria, daughter of John C. Dunham, y? re to App! ne y,toM Eaq., of that Mise Dunham is represented to bea young lady of the most respectable connexions and exceedingly amiable character. Theyfellow ia, it seems, of a diminutive and rather disagreeable person, and it ia said that his successfal affectation of extraordinary piety, was the means which enabled him to effect his disgraceful deceptions. It isto be hoped that the publicity which the disclosure off his infamous career has now given this wretch, will prevent him from successfully pursuing it farther. These are, however, many Appletons at work in the community, and the public cannot be too often ) pointedly put on its guard sgainst their de- predations. This whole system of temperance agen- cesand home missions, should be thoroughly re- formed. Let the sensible, respectable, and influ- ential friends of temperance and religion, frown down these vagabond lecturers. A Launew.—A steamboat of 160 tons was launch- ed @t New Haven on Thursday. It is intended to run usa lreight: bont between New York and that cm, in Connection with the one launched a few weeks since. ‘They were built by Daniel Buck & Co., of Hartlord, are intended for a light draught of water, and are fitted up with Erricson propellers Arnivats.—Hon.

P, Tallmadge lias arrived at the Astor House from Washington, where he has ow! *nfined by severe illness ever since she ad. sar tae of Congress i“ Celavan, the great temperance apostle, has ne {the Croton Hotel with his family British Parliament—the Washington Trea- ty—Lord Brougham’s Speech on the 7th nd Lord Campbell's Reply. We make some further extracts from Lord Brougham’s celebrated speech upon the Washing- ton treaty, and persons and things therewith con- nected. From this speech it is sufficiently apparent that the British Government deemed it important to their national interests that peace with America should be established and preserved at any price short of an absolute sactifice of national honor. In the present state of British finantes the beriéfi's re- sulting in the way of trade from ‘pacific commercial relations with this country were not for a momeat to be jeopardized. British interests gave birth to a spirit of conciliation, not tosay of concession—and in that spirit Lord Ashburton came over to this country, and in that spirit the treaty was negotiated. Lork Brougham’s remarks upon the “soreness of feeling” with which the English aristocracy regards “the establishment for the first time in modem ages of a great democratic govern- meat of apurely republican character,” will be read with great interest, especially when it is borne in mind that,the American press is the great agent in disseminating these republican principles, which create this *‘soreness,” throughout the British Em- pire. We cannot but suspect that the writer of the late article in the Foreign Quarterly, attacking the New York Herald, was afflicted with the same kind of “soreness,” only of a more malignant char- acter:— First, it was not the first time that he (Lord. Brougham) had dealt with matters concerning the relations of this country with the United States;and none of their lor ships hiad for so long as he had had the fortune to take active part in endeavoring to allay animosities, and to re- store amicable relations with this country and America, not only in 1803, when the ill-fated orders in council were issued, but in 1812, when assisted by the noble lord, the object of the present motion this evening, whose conduct upon that occasion pointed him out prominently asthe man to go forth to America, for the purpose of restoring all matters that were in ditference—(hear.) In the year 1819 they had the food fortune for the second time to tri- umph over that ill policy which placed restraints upon commerce. What sustained him in the periormance of this duty,iwas the abselute confidence he felt in the strength of the position he was about to take—its strength upon all peints, not merely upon that in which it had never been attempted to make.an attack, but still more oie those where an attack had beem made but had fail- . He would, therefore, now at once proceed to the subject-matter of this great argument; and if he succeed. ed by fortune in rising to the height of it, he felt confi- dent that his rand anxiety would be rewardei by being the public instrument of rendering a service to the Cause of peace and of truth. When the question was what had been gained, or what hed been restored,or what had been lost, or what security had been given for trans. actions between this country and America, it was abso- Intely necessary that they should form a'clear idea of what the object in view was. He began, therefore, at once to ascertain what the object of the Government was in this great negotiation, and what purpose they had in view in sending over a minister. He held that the great object they had in view was the restoration of friendly feeling and amicable intercourse between England and Americe, comparison with which every other con sideration was but as dust in the balance—(hear, hear.) ry, cast their eyes back for halfa century they would ee of what paramount importance it was a good under- standing should prevail between the United States and England. As soon asthe struggle was over, by which Engiand lost thirteen of her colonies, it was in vain to. deny that very far from cordial’ feelings were left behind in the hosoms of both parties to the contest. The toss which England had sustained made those feelings bitter on this side the water, and the indigna. tion which was experienced from ‘those pr‘judices, made their feelings sore on the other side of the ocean; to which let him add—as it was now a matter of his- tory—it could give effence to no one—that there was something in the establishment, for the first time, in mod- ern ages, of agreat democratic government of & purely republican character, which hod a tendency to beget soreness of feeling on this side of the water. They, with all their monarchical principles, (for he would not call them prejudices) with all their aristocratic feelings, (for he would not call them superstitions,) with all their na- tural abhorrence ofthe levelling system and a democratic form of government—were embittered by seeing a great and Sl Rares formed by men in whose veins flowed English bloo see three millions of Englishmen united without a king to govern them—without a prelateto bless them—without a noble to adorn them—and all this was done by the sword, after a course of disasters, defeats and Pe ames on the part of the British arms. Our deep feelings were not only called into action on seeing the new republic raised, but words ‘were found to express them—sometimes words of bitterness, sometimes of affect- ed superiority, far more offensive than the atmost bitter- ness, and which were net the less calculated to give rise to exasperated feelings in American bosoms, because they were in accordance with our own prejudices. It should be remembered that they were not, therefore, the less calculated to shock the feelings of equality of republican America. Whilst all these things were tending to pro- duce feeliuge of the greatest exasperation between the two countries, an event took place which tended to blow the coals between the two countries—he alluded to the French revolution, which added fuel to the fire ; and then came French intrigue, to exasperate still further feelings already more than sufficiently exacerbated. France, not contented with the levelling principle of American insti- tutions—not content with the pure and absolute republi- canism of republican America—would not be satisfied unless America—republican like herself—democratic like herself{—would also consent to become anarchical like herself. French intrigues Jabored to introduce that anarchy into America, which had already been introduced into France, and which had Jed to a war with England. Hence, for the last three years of his rule, the greatest man that, as « ruler, either the old or the new world had produced, had endeavoured by his firmness to prevent the mtroduction of anarchy into that country—(hear). During those last three years they had been fated to see one tual con- flict between England and America, in sjeuewn every turn of the negotiations, war was ready to burst forth. Next came the neutral'question; and next, theshort peace with France, the Pesce of Amiens ; und then came those orders in council, and that question of impressment, at which he had ‘already slightly glanced. But at last we had become involved in a state of actual war; #0 much so that since the treaty of Versailles, by which the inde- pendence of America had been acknowledged, in conse- quence of those jealousies and prejudices which he had jescribed, and those events which he had shortly enume- rated, as well as (hose practices of the French intrigues, at which he had also glanced, it did so happen that upto the very last year, when new questions ore similar kind vived, and when the forgotten or half-forgotten res of 1812. 1313, and 1814 burst forth into a spirit of sarcasm, irritation, and heart-burnings, turning into gall and bitterness better feelings—the peace which was thue ya” reminded him of what was said of the quarrels of lovers— “Injarie, suspiciones, inimicitiw, induci«, Bellum, pax rarsam”———— It was rather the name of peace than the reality which was thus established. It was in vam to deny that after peace was restored. better feelings were again raised on the part of both countries. It could not be denied that when the present Government came into offige they found matters with England aud America in anything but Sanebey Da n. Such was the state of things, an such was the aspect of foreign affairs as regarded America —such were the feelings, and such the ditticulties under which the noble lord undertock the task of effecting a complete adjustment of all the grievances between this country and America. He had said that matters were in ell but @ hostile position between thetwo countries when the present Government came into power, and the state ot the case was this: @ train of bad feeling was laid in America in the feelings ofthe people upon the boundary uestion, upon Canadian interference, upon the cases of Caroline and the Creole, ‘and, above all, upon the right of search connected with the slave'trade question, and feelings of @ similar kind existed in this country, though not applied to the same state of the question ; yet, doubtless, as stoutly and universally pervading the peo: ple oi thiscountry, which made it certain that if one mis- chance happened, the peace of Europe would be disturb- ed, and one spark from that fire, which would then be re- kindled, would swiftly waft its way scross the ocean, from the Old tothe New World, and ignite that train, * * witiled Bani Penebvana? mh Firmness and caution Were peculiarly necessery in treating with a peo- ple like the Americans—the countrymen of General Cass—a people among whom clamor and violence very frequently prevailed over sound principles and sober reason. Anything which affected the honor ofthe country was, however, always of the utmost im- portance. He believed it was Mr. Fox who had once most wisely and profoundly observed that hé could not concur in a war for profit, but that a war for honor was a very different thing (hese) He would now undertake to show their lordships that every one object of the nego- tiation had been gained, as well as the reconcilement, and that no one interest of England had been sacrificed ; no onething given up which was of the very slightest mo- ment to England ; noone principle had been sacrificed, and that the honor—the highest honor—of the people, and of the Crown and the constitution, all there hat through: out, from the instructiens which had been given to his noble friend tothe last negotiations of Lord Ashburton, aintained pure and without a breath to stain their brightness—(hear.) He (Lord Brougham) now came to notice those points to which the negotiation was direct- ed ; and first with respect to the subject of the Caroline. There was an apologetical tone adopted by his noble friend, it was said, in dealing with this question. It could ‘anada this subject had not been so something in the position not generally vehement in ge not be denied that treated. The Canadians were of near neighbors, who were their ection towards each other. " Datural (hat monarchical G via, should feel @ sort of superi saical feelin thet the Tau a v, a sort of phara blessing Gon that they were not as other d that they could see the vines and fig tree efully round the Corinthian colunns of 5 Whilst thi nape constitution was in n, and destitute of many essen- hich they possessed.’ But as regarded the case of the Caroline, no complaints had beenmate in Canuda ex to the steps taken by this government on the subject. He had the aut Thief Justice ofthat country «1 given mor r 4 mtire sati - in his noble friend had done with respect to ite on. Then again there was the y of the of that country to the same effect, for out of mn newspapers not fewer then ten had asserted thatthe most entire satiefaction existed as to what had ndone relating to the Caroline. But it was raid that noble friend had made an apology upon rect Nad he? Where wasittobe fod? * * He now came to a subject which he ap luctance; a reluctance, however, whi by the confidence which he felt in cane, and diminished, too, by the pleasing consciousn in which he had no doubt he should mect with the sym. pathy of their lordships, that it broughthim near the close | of his statement. He alluded to the bounds uestion. Ifany one would take the trouble of farting to th spatchof Lord Aberdeen to Mr. Fox, dated Jan. 18, 1943, he would find he was astonished that such a reference should be necessary, but necessary it undoubtedly was, on account of the grieveus misrepresentations aud great misepprehensions Which had been so industriously propa- gated, to the disparagement of Lord Ashburton und his negotii Advent never could, form sup perce mare ey ee gotions « The President must. well know,” says the Secretary of State, that the right of search never formed asubject of discussion during the late negotiations; that neither could any concession be required by the United States, nor any made by Great Britain” Notwithstanding this, however, there were still found men who maintain- ed that we had abandoned the right of search. The fact was that we had nothing te ask, for we had itall ourown way. We did not claim the right to search American vessels, in the proper and technical sense of the word, because we had no treaty with America, as we hed with France, by which a search was |; with certain too narrow restrictions. América had never conceded this point, and we. never claimed-it, so that there could de no question betw: us on that head. Even though the vessel should be brimful ofslaves, every one of whom had been put aboard by an act of ie all probability, by murder ap~ by the . most inflictions of —cruelty—even though each of these men on board the ship were a pirate, and liable to the. of piracy under hisown government, still we had no right to stop her if she were truly American. But what was the proposition? That an American vessel was only answerable to her own govern ment for breaking its laws, and we had no right to search her, no right to stop her, though caught in the flagrant delict of piracy and murder, Such was the proposition, such the meaning of the right of search. As to the dis- tinction between “right of search” and “right of visit,” he discarded it as unworthy of notice, the only difference being that the one was English and the other French.— But we must be sure (said the noble and learned lord) thatthe ship is really American. No person had a right to hoist two-penny worth of flag,and then call it an Amer. ican ensign, and thus _b; magic keep me out of that ship which I know not to be American, or, what amounts. practically to the same thing, on which I entertain a preg nant suspicion that the American flag has been fraudu- lently and falsely hoisted. He did not address this rea- soning to their lordshins, but to such men as Gen. Cass— (anghter), if snch men were capable of listening to ar- Bap The same argument would apply to the Eng- ish flag, assumed for the purpose of fraud. ‘Suppose that acrimeof the most grievous enormity, murder of the most cruel stamp, had been with bloody-mindednoss and melice aforethought committed in New York—suppose the murderers should betake themselves to an American ship ying in the harbor, and putting out to sea before the police couldovertake them, hoist the Britis! and lie off at the distance, peradventure of half a mile from the coast—acording to the argument to which he hadreferred, according to the m laid down in these new authorities on the laws of nations, by this new ja: risconsult, General Cass— ‘ho, he jwas petri- fied to learn, had actually reduced these opinions to wri ting and even committed them to paper by priating, had been kind enough to send copies to their lordships, in order to extort their admiration and conwnce their rea- son—according to their doctrines these murderers could not be interfered with. Such was the argument—not of Mr. Webster, nor of his (Lord Brocehan’® excellent friend, Mr. Everett, a minister who, of all ministers that had ever represented their country, appeared to him §the very one best suited to maintain the honor of his own ‘nation, at the same time that he pre- served pacific relations and amicable and friendly sen- iments with the land in which he had taken up his re- sidence. Neither were thesethe arguments of Mr. Ste- ‘yenson, nor of any one man, except thoxe who chose to deal with subjects of which they had not the capacit; comprehend the first rudiments. Why then, it might be said, should any doubt be cast on the subject; why not re- fer to the 7th and Sth articles? “Oh,” say the: not look at the text but st the commentary, in the messagefof President Tyler.” He wished to 5 with the greatest respect of the chief magistrate of the United States, although the individual now filling the of- fice was not chosen Dy the people to fill that high post— but had been elected to the office of second magistrate, and owed his elevation to accident, the death ofthe Presi- dent,a circumstance not unusual inAmerica,{rom an over. sengpiinn calculation as to the value of human life, eppa- rently from their assumptien that the President wes not term of office. Mr. Tyler was ieee by the Ame! pene in a position which gave im a chance of the presidency, and that was the amount ef their choice. He wishedgto speak of that officer with unfeigned respect, not so much in consideration of his title, as in consideration of his possession. Ne- vertheless he thought himself at perfect liberty to give a fair aud condid opinion with respect to such parts of his conduct as he Saeeent open to observa. tion, and such parts as he was at a loss to comprehend.— ‘When eiegonedsiug ceased in America (if itever did cease, for from presidency to presidency there appeared to be one perpetual canvass and agitation, the political an- imosities increasing in vehemence, and all the artsof can- vass becoming more rife at the epproach of the election— such was the price—he did not mean to say too high a price—paid for liberty) —when this state of feeling ceased the tone of the President would alter. Compare the ad- dress of President Jackson with that of President Tyler; no doubt the latter addressed himselfto a most powerful and important portion of the electors—namely, those of the southern and slave-owning States. In canvassing these States (if he might use the expression) the Presi- dent thought he would best promote his canvass by put- ting a very curious gloss on an article of the Tagetld n, #00 to makeit appearthat we had given up something which we never dreamed of giving up. He wasnot now giving his own version of the matter; he was giving the statement made by those, who, having found nothing in the articles themselves, orin the documents, which could give the least shadew ef colorthat we had abandoned the right of search, thought they could prove it because President Tyler was reported to have put a certain con- struction upon those articles. For his own part, he (Lord Brougham) did not believe that the President ever put forth the gloss attributed to him. He was the last man in the world to accuse him of so base a proceeding ss giving utterance to statements which he knew to false tor canvassing purposes. The statement of President Tyler was so plain thathe whoran might read. His statement was—"Such, | am happy to find, is substantially the doc- trine of Great Britain herself in her recent official decla- ration.”. (This wasin February.) “The declaration to which allude is the doubt whether the apparent Sdifter- ence between the two Gorernments is not rather one of definition than of principle—(cheers); not only fis the right of search properly s0 called, which is claimed by claimed by that of Great Britain,even that of mere visit andinquiry”—i What said the assailants of Lord Ashburton. | ieneree and truckling, and he knew not what other of- e expressions? Was this right abandoned? The question was not as to the right to visit, but as tothe right of ascertaining under circumstances of grave suspicion, atthe risk of affording indemnity. ia case of error, the identity of a veseel. President Tyler said—“Not only was the right of search properly so call ut even that of mere visit'and inquiry.” What, ed — up—abandoned? No; but “asserted” with qualific inconsistent with the idea of a perfect right.” Why,who ever said that we had a perfect right? Who ever preten- ded to say that wehad aright to stop any vessels save our own andthose of France; who have conceded to you the right by treaty? Nobody ever whispered anything of the in '* . . , * : itions— he would find that the right of search never Lord Casrsett—The noble and learned lord, [Brough- am,} then alluded to General Cass in a strain of much ‘unnecessary vituperation. The noble and learned lord should have considered the consequence that might follow such acourse. General Cass might one day become Pres. ident of the United States, and his noble and learned friend might become Prime Minister of England—(ques tiom, question.) He considered he was speaking to the question when he was expressing his disapprobation of the course which had been taken by his noble and learn- ed friend. He could not see how he wes committing any breach of order in supposing sach a contingency for England neyer had, nor could not have, a more able or nas her I'rime Minister, or one that she should proud of, than his noble and learned friend. If such a contingency as thie occurred, their friendly rela. tions might then be most seriously disturbed. ‘The right of search was that which gave them the power of stopving at were 1 in-anunlawful trade. The it hud been admirably defined by the noble earl in his letters to Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Everett. had been denied by these two gentiemen, and ident Tyler, in his first and second messages to Congress, jand the ground of that denial was said to rest on the authority of Sir William Scott. But the expres sions of Sir William Scott applied to the right of search, detention, and condemnation, and he said no such thing as that in time of peace the right did not exist of visit ng to determine the nationality of a flag. Now what wai on the part of America in the message of the President, upon which his noble friend relied ? President Tyler, in his first message to Congress, represented tbat this country had set up a right entirely contrary to law, and had been obliged to abandon it. Amongst other things, he said,“ Ithereiore, felt it to be my duty distinctly to declare in my annual mes: sage to Congress, that no snch consession could be made, and that the United States have beth the will and the abil- ity to enforce their own law and to pretect their fag. In close conformity with this view, the eighth article of the treaty was framed. From this it will be seen that the ground assumed in the message has been fully maintain- ed;” and then he went on to fy thet the object would be ‘ained without the interpolation of any new principle. herefore, the right to visit, which the noble earl so lauded, was declared to be an interpolation of the law of nations, which must be exploded. Iu the second message the ther deed — if aS eee of that right, say. ing they might grant it if they pleased, or they might withhold ie Phe noble and eared lord satd ‘Te would undertake to show that there not @ shadow of differ- ence between the two Governments on the ct. But there was this difference—that the Americ a it was a trespass, and that this country said it was aright. I!10, then resistance would be unlawful; but if it werea tres. pass, then theattempt would be unlawful. If it were a right, thote who resisted it would be guilty of murder IL it were # trespass, those who tried to enforce it would be guilty of murder. There had been repeated trials in which this point had arian, and at the Admiralty Ses- sions 30 persons charged with murder were defended by Dr. Lushington on eneoccasion, and 33 on another, This right wan aino denied in the last message of the President. It was notonly denied, but the message went much fur. ther, forit said you shall not examine a ship with the American flag, although it moy? be falsely med. Without the tof visit it would be impossib! put an end tothe ‘he entreaties of rely failed to in- them to agree to the right of search, and the eighth article had been substituted fer it. Thatarticle had most materislly tended to injure our influence, and it had been made use of to induce France, not only to refuse to assent to the last treaty, but forthe purpose of rescinding those which had been previously entered into, It was there. fore quite impossible for him to agree to the motion of his noble and learned friend, which declared there bad been a restoration of the goed understanding between the two nations. This, certainly, was not the case, and the ques tion was s0 open that war might at any time arise. There Wasnot only the dispute respecting the right of visit, but there was the question of the Oregon territory. Lord Ast n had scarcley quitted the country, when a bill was introduced into the Senrte, asserting (kat the whole of that country belonged to Amorica, rescribing the mode in which that right was to ba enforced, and pro- viding for theemployment of military means. ‘That bill = the ite by @ considerable majority—(hear, hear.

Mr. Catherwood’s beautitul drawingsof the magnificent ruins of Yucatan were conveniently disposed around the room. _ The minutes of the last stated and special meet- jogs having been read and approved, the Secretary submitted an invitation fromthe Massachueetts His- torical Society to join with them in the second cen- tennial cejebration of the confederation of the New England Colonies,on the 29th May, inst, at Boston, when_a discourse will .be delivered by the Honor- able John Quincy Adama. tel ia ng motion of General Wsrmore the invitation was accepted and the President authorised to ap- point delegates to represent the ata r Acircular wasalso submitted from the committee appointed by the National Institute for the promo- tion science to the scientific and learned societies throughcut the United States, announcing the post- poneinent of the general meeting of the Institute to the Ast April, 1844. #48 ; A letter was read from Mr. Ombroli, ‘the United States Consul at Florence, announcing the trans- mission of an abstract of the Diary of the fourth convention of the scientific. men of Italy, held at Padua, published in the Journal of Commerce of Florence, in which are mentioned the principal sub- jects treated and discussed in the different sections of the same. i ce A comnunicatlon was received from William B. Crosby, Esq., presenting to the Society a hollow sil- ver button, in which a note was contained, reco- vered from a spy employed by Sir Henry.Clinton, during our revolution, by means. similar to those mentioned in the anecdote recently related by Gen. Tallmadge. A note was read from Mr. Alexander Walsh, re- questing the acceptance by the Societary ot an ac- companying parcel of old newspapers and manu- scrips, of hich more particular notice will be taken at the next meeting. sy litiat During the reading of these communications the society ballotted for persons who had previously been nominated, and the following gentlemen were elected resident members :—Wm. J. Hoppin, Wm. M. Pritchard, Charles E. Butler, Hon Benj. F. Butler, Alex. R. Wyckoff, Philip M. Lydig, Henry G. Stebbins, and John Bigelaw, The Present said that he had lately received from Mr. Cochran for the society, an autograph let- ter of General Washington, which he should re- quest the Secretary to read, as he thought it both ia- teresting and valuable, as showing the simplicity of hischaracter, the inconveniences of the times when it was written, and the great economy of his style of living when Commander-in-Chief of the Ameri- can armies. A The Rev. Mr. Watters, through whom it had come, rose to say, that in intention it had been pre- sented by Mr. Cochran to the society thirty years ago, and it was entirely owing to accident that it had remained so long in his possession—and re- marked that it was particularly interesting as bein, almost the only letter of a playful character whic! had been found among the Berets of the Father of his Country. The letter was then read by Mr. Jay, as follows :— ‘Wrst Pont, Aug. 16th, '79. Dear Doct. I have asked Mrs. Cochran and Mrs, Livingston to dine with me to-morrow, but ought I not te e them of their fare? As I hate deception, even the imagination only is concerned, I will. It is needless to promise that my table is large enough to held the ladies—of this they had occular proof yester- day. To say how it is usually covered is rather more es- sential, and this shall be the purport of my letter. Since our arrival at this happy spet we have hada hem (sometimes a shoulder) of bacon to e the head of the table—a piece of roast beef adorns the foot, and a small dish of greens or beans [almost imperceptible] decorates the centre. When the cook hasa mind to cut a figure, (and this I presume he will attempt to do tomorrow.) we have two beefsteak pyes, or dishes of crabs in addition, one on each side the centre dish anidies, the space and reducing the distance between dish and dish to about six feet, ich without them would be near twelve apart. Of late he had the surprising luck to discover tl ples will make pyes, and its a question. if, amidst the violence of his efforts, we do not get one of apples instead of hav- ing both of beef. fr the ladies can put up with such entertainment, and will submit to partake of it on plates, once tin, but now iron, (not become so by the labor of scouring) I shall be happy to see them. Tam Dr. Doct. Yr. most obed. serv’t, GO. WASHINGTON. (Superscribed) Dr. Cocnran, New Windsor. Mr. Wetmore, Chairman of the Executive Com- mittee, called the attention of the society to the beautiful drawings on the walls illustrating the dis- coveries made by Mr. John L. Stephens during his recent tourin Yucatan. It was well known that Mr. Stephens, whom it was the pride of the So- ciety to own as an associate, had now given to the world his complete written descriptions of the ex- traordinary discoveries he had made. The en- gravings which accompany the published volumes, were necessarily on too minute a scale to afford an adequate idea of the vast and magnificent super- structures, the remains of which were found in that interesting country, or of the very beautiful sculptur. ed decorations which adorned them. That portion of the labor which was to bring before our cbserva- tion a more perfect and satistactory representa- tion of these relics of a forgotten race, was reserved for Mr. Catherwood, the companion and friend of the traveller. How well thatwork had been accom- plished, the Society had now the means of judging, and certainly nothing could be more creditable to the ekill and taste of the.artist and the antiquarian. —Having accomplished his principal task by giving to the world a full, graphic and faithful description of these ruined cities and temples, Mr. Stephens now proposed to complete his valuable contributioas to the cause of historical and scientific research, by publishing an edition of the drawings on the scale there represented. ‘ Mr. W. after some further remarks submitted a prospectus of the work, issned by the Brothers Har- per. The size will be the imperial folio. The plates 28 inches by 20, or the same dimensions with Humboldt’s Mexico. It will be issued in 20 month- ly numbers, at five dollars per number, each to con- tain five engravings, to be executed in the highest rade of art, with letter-press fully describing the uildings and subjects represented ; the whole form- ing four volumes, at $100 for the set. ¥ Mr. Wermonrs offered the following resolutions: — Resolved, That the recent discoveries of ruined cities; exhibiting @ style and architecture different from any olsewhere found, the remains of a people whose name and history are unknewn, have given a new aspect to the nd affora highly: interesting and rical researc! le works on central America and Yucatan, by our distinguished associate,Mr-8tephens, by whom the remains of ited, and forty seven of them brought to the netice of the civilized world, have added greatly to the scanty knowledge before posressed of these and throw light upon the im- portant questions that are yet to be solved in relation to the origin of the races by whom they were inkabited; and that the fuller illustration of those antiquities on a larger scale by the pencil of Mr. Catherwood, with accurate rci- entific details of architecture and art, is a wary. object of American enterprize, and may be ed regarded as a debt which the new world owes to the old. Resolved, That the proposal of Messrs. Harper and Bro- there is eminently deserving of the favor and support of the American public, and that we confidently recommend it as an object of national pride to the Historical societies of other Stat: ind to all Colleges, Universities, Literary and Scientific Institutions throughoutthe United States. Resolved, That the executive committee are authorized to take such measures as it may deem expedient to die- seminate a knowledge of the proposed work of Mr. Ste phens, and to giveeffect to the recommendation of the be opened on society. Resolved, That the rooms of th iet: Friday evening, the Sth inst , 7, for the admis- sion of members, therr friends and families, to view the drawings of Mr Catherwood. Proressor Ropinson seconded the resolutions, and observed, that the proposed work would have a very important and happy influence both in elevating our national character, in connection with literature and the arts, and in inducing further inyestigation on the subject of these interesting antiquities. In a little while, the field of discovery in Central Ame- rica will be occupied by Europeans. Views in Chi- na are already announced, and it will be well for America if we can anticipate the artists that will soon be found in Yucatan, by a work like this. Mr. For.som hoped that the resolutions would be een by an unanimous vote. No enterprise of the kind had ever before been offered to the favor- able notice of the society. The views of the pub- lishers were liberal: the object of the author wasto meke it an American work—one that would re- donnd, not only to his own credit and that of this s0- ciety, but to the honor of the whole country. Mr. Lawrence, the first Vice-Presideat, after ob- serving that he had had no intention of remarks on the subject under discussion, calculated to call forth the highest enthu: paid an elegant tribute to Mr. Stephens, (who was not repeat.) and his co-labouret, Mr. Catherwood, for their arduous efforts, and stupendous discoveries which afford means of solving doubts, and ening theories, with regard to those races who inhabite this continent at the time ot its discovery, by per- sons of European descent. In this view, the edi- fices, delineated in these drawings, are of equal or, indeed, greater importance, than the roun: towers of Ireland, ot the ruins of Pastum.and even Petra, with the other wonders disclosed in the glow- ing narrative which first brought their associate to. the notice of his countrymen ; and the Pyramids of Iigypt, as works of art, are interior to these Ameri- can antiquities, and lose their pre-eminent signifi- cance, when contrasted with the coloseal works of Uxinal, and the inferences to be deduced from them ‘He concluded by saying that the society would be highly honored by the connection of its name with that of Mr. Stephens, in the proposed work. Mr. Bexepict, Mr. Duycxinor, and Col. Sronr, apoke in support of the resolutions. The Preswenr, before putting the question, said that was al own to a part of the mem- bersipat he ae [some eaentida ie oe sati- quities of America, He possessed, as they wel probably aware, little imagination. He was a mat- ter-of-fact person ; and, therefore, it was that he wished these fantdings to come before the world. Here was truth, notfancy. Look at the accounts and sketches of Palenque, formerly given; and how were. theymade? After the death of the architect, one haying been stolen, and one transcribed, there was no certainty of their correctness. Here, there was the greatest. He would add but a single re- mark. They had among them a gentleman who had travelled in Egypt, Syria, and the coast of Afmea, with great profit to the public, and this great traveller, Mr. Catherwood, was the same man who made these drawings on the spots which they represent; and the fact of his intimate and practi- cal acquaintance with the various architecture of other lands, gives té them great value and impor- tance. Mr. Gallatin concluded by remarking 1 he perfectly agreed with the language of the reso- lutions, that ‘his was a debt which the new world owes to the old. We live upon their literature ; and it is the least return which we can make them, 2 The questioa was then put, and the resolutions were unanimously adopted. : ¥ Professor Robinson resumed the reading ot his paper, on “The Druses,” on the conclusion of Which's vote of thanks was passed, and the society adjourned. : ‘ ‘oflee and sandwiches were provided, us usual, in the adjoining room; and the company, among whom were several distinguished strangers, passe the reet of the evening in conversation. City Intelligence, Poricr.—We understand from a responsible source that among the first movements of the Democratic Common Council will be a partial change inthe Po- lice system, so much so as to compel the constant attendance, night andday,- of a magistrate at the lewer police office, and also to regulate the income of the police officers ona different system from the present. This improvement, with a night patrol or secret watch to act.as.a epur to the watchmen, and who shall remain on duty until six o’clock in the summer and seven or eight in the winter, will do more to remedy evils that now exist than all the talked of and speculative ordinances thathaye been tramped up for the-pastsix months. We congratu- late the public on the contemplated change, know- ing by experience elsewhere that the result will prove nghly beneficial. Important rrom Aupany.—We have received the following important financial report by Pome- roy’s Express:— {Correspondence of the Herald.} Acrany, Friday, May 5, 1843. ; 6 e’clock, P. M.

De Lara, or THe Moortsu Brive.—A tragedy in five acts, by Mrs. Caroline Lee Hentz. Published by Woodruff and Olcott, Tusezloosa, Alabama. Several years ago Mr. Pelby,’ of Boston, offered” five hundred dollars for the best original Tragedy, which was awarded to}Mrs. Caroline Lee Hentz, then of Covington, Ky., now a resident of Tusca- joosa, Ala. Owing to’pecuniary embarrassment,he felt unable to pay the whole amount of the award, and honorably returned to her the copyright. It was performed in the eastern cities at the time, on severalsuccessive nights, with very great applause. For the better comprehension of portions of the play we mention,that Osman isa captive Moor, residing in the Castle of the *‘De Laras,” having been taken prisoner by theffather of Fernando, and treated by him with the greatest kindness. He has secretly murdered, however, the elderDe Lara, and the son is aware of the fact, though his'revenge is stayed by the love that he bears to Osman’s daughter, who hes become a Christian in sincerity, as her father has in profession,’in order the better to!subserve his hatred toward Fernando The Tragedy is, on the whole, a highly respecta- ble production, and the publishers have performed an acceptable task in presenting it in its present ele- gant form to the public. “Grsert oN THE CHANGES oF THB BLoop.—Thie is one of the best treatises on the changes of the blood in disease. {thas been elegantly translated from the French by Dr. Dix, of Boston, and is published foramere trifle, by the enterprising firm of Bar- rington & Haswell, of Philadelphia.

Mr. Parr. The Bishop, he hee is not to receive the surplus funds of the church, as they are to be di of according to the wishes of the,Society. far the ‘‘correspond- ent,’ On this the editor of the Herald remarks, ‘that the difficulties in the case of the St. Louis church have beenamicably arranged. Bishop Hughes, has, it seems, in Some measure, compromised the points in dispute, and yielding up the right insisted on his celebrated pastoral letter, his signified his _permis- sion to the trustees to manage their own affairs as heretofore.” r th From these statements, it 1s certain that the cor- respondent ef the Herald and its editor are both mis- taken; and their statements are calculated to de- ceive others if not prompily contradicted.

The Bishop has not compromised in any “measure” whatever, the “points in dispute,” nor hashe yielded up any part of what is advanced in His pastoral letter. So much for the mistakes of the itor Third. There has not been one word about. the appointment of “‘a new minister in the place of the v.Mr. Parr.” | : . Fourth. The insinuation of the correspondent that the Bishop ever claimed any’ funds, or “surplus funds” of that church, is gratuitous and false. Fifth. The question has not altered its bearing one iota from the commencement. The Bishop had to contradict, some time ago, similar slanderous charges, copied into the “Commercial Advertiser” from the*‘Buflalo Gazette.” The editor of that Gazette most honorably pare up the name of the in} dividual with whom the falsehood originated. That individual saw a refutation of it published in Bufla- lo, beth in English and in German. The conse- juence was, that the whole community there saw atthe Bishop had not made the demands that werecharged upon him; and that, therefere, he could not relinquish them. The inventors of the falsehood, then, are probably willing to find an escape in a new species of invention to the effect re nt- ed by the extracts quoted above. They do not, however, this time, present to the editor of the Bul falo Gazette the new form of calumny which they would circulate. His experience has taught him to beware ; and his honorable feelings would prompt him to reject, with indignation, a statement resting onauthority which had already 80 egregiously de- ceived him. It only remains, therefore, for the Bishop’s accusers to prove their charge, (which is impossible) or else to acknowledge their calumny with becoming shame and humiliation.
