We have despatchea several correspondents to diflerent parts of Delaware county, and they all agree in representing the state of feeling there, to be such as to preclude all moderation, all reason, and even a just appreciation of events and facts, as they take place among them. So deep is this feeling in Delaware, that a large portion of the people opposed in principle to the an- t-renters, cannot tolerate any individual who feels ess than they do, or who will not go all the lengths hey do, in denouncing the insurrection party. One of our correspondents there has given us an account of the procedure of the District Attorney of that county towards him, of so extraordinary a character, as to show that there prevails an extreme sensibility in that region in the public mind; and to such an unwarrantable length did that functionary go, that we forbear to quote his remarks, lest they would hardly obtain credence, so extraordinary are they. Such occurrences, however, are only worth noting, as they indicate the depth of the feeling and passion which seem to be growing every day, between the diflerent classes of people in that county. In fact, the movement seems now to assume the form of a wide and impassable gulph between the farmers who occupy property by lease—who are very numerous, and ranged in hostile array to the laws and the con- stitution—and on the other side, those who are sup- ported principally by business, including the profes- sional men, lawyers and politicians, who abound in the villages. It is rapidly taking the character of a deep seated and vindictive agrarian war, in which the towns and villages of the county will be arrayed on one side, and the surrounding farming population on the other. Now this tearful state of things might be eluded and put down if it existed only in one county, and were confined to a narrow region of country ; but such, unhappily, is not the case in relation to those tenures and those holding them. : There are, perhaps, eight or ten counties in different parts of the State, with a population of nearly a million of souls, united in this movement, and communicating with each other by means of agents, committees and conven- tions. They have already organized themselves into a separate and distinct political party in the disturbed counties, and by this means will be able to wield a fearful influence over the authorities of the State as well as of the counties. Neither of the two parties from whose votes originate the authorities of the State and counties, can expect to reach power with- out the votes, in one shape or another, of the Anti- Rent associations and those whom they control.— This is the source of a fearful influence over the ac- SES——S——SSS5qqqQqQq—— New York, Tuesday, September 2, 1845. News from Europe. The Caledonia is in her fourteenth day. We may expect to receive her news at an early hour this morning. The Policy of England, It will not be denied by any who give at. tention to the matter, that the attitude of r land towards this country and Mexico, in their present belligerent position, is :mportant, and that it is necessary it should be understood and rightly scanned by our statesmen. To learn what the probable policy of Great Britain will be, there are various sources of information, all of which tend to establish the fact that, say what she will, protest as she may of pacific intentions, she looks with a sinister eye on the movements of this country in the ‘Texas question. On the floor of the British Parlia- ment, we find discussions and various allusions made to annexation with great apparent so- licitude. We observe leaders ef each of the two great parties for once concurring in their views, a circumstance in itself highly suspi- cious; for when whig and tory are found plot™ ting together, there is mischief brewing. And yet, on all these occasions, they are remarkably cautious; each pretending to outvie the other in pro- fessions of moderation, amity, and unswerving ad- hesion to rectitude in regard to this country. Now we are not to be contented with this as an index of British policy ; it is all moonshine, and part of the plausible cunning that stamps the policy of Peel, both foreign and domestic, and which he has infused into the minds of a large portion of the members of that House. {f we want to know the spirit by which the British government and people are actuated towards the United States, we can discover it in public opinion, in its various manifestations. Look at the public journals—those vast craters through which the internal workings and upheavings of the nation find vent—they are, without exception, fiercely in- censed against all that is American. To what con- clusion can he come who peruses the wild declamation of the London and provincial press other than tha! they regard this republic as a rival in her commerce, and an enemy in her nature to that of Great Britains and that it is essential to the welfare of the latter to curtail, undermine and prostrate the growing ener- gies of the United States. Just so with the periodi cal press, which is a transcript of the views of the aristocracy, as the newspapers are of the masses. Nothing can be more hostile than the tone of the Quarterlies, the foreign Quarterlies,'the Edinburghs» the Blackwoods, the Westminsters, and all the rest Sr. Louis, Aug. 22, 1845, War Spirit of the West—Troops for Service or Emi+ gration, ‘The rumor of war with gees has ene much ex- citement in this State, which has been gradually increa- a “ i sing until a perfect war fever seoms to have spread | _Mit!tany.—The “Scottish Guard among the people of every class. ‘The news received a few days since that ten thousand Mexicans were about to invade Texas, caused an unusual excitement; prepa- rations had been going on sometime with a view to or- ‘anize a volunteer regiment to march against Santa Fe. here is a regiment of volunteer companies, consisting of the “Missouri Fusileers,” “German Yagers,” souri Artillery,” “Jackson Guards,” and the “Missouri Dragoons.” This regiment was organized about two years since, and is composed of men,who, if called upon, would render good service in the ‘field.

Gapt. A.C. Castle, the indefatigable and excellent commandant of this fine corps, deserves much. credit for tho manner in which he hes organized and drilled this valuable company ofartillery.

Several Doctors were immediately sent for—only one of the num ber,however,Dr.Dodd or Dodge, thought proper to attend structions would be found to be all of a piece with these expressions of popular feeling, and totally ini- mical to the pacific and kindly relations they profess to cherish and cultivate. Capt. Elliott did not make his peregrinations through Mexico, Texas and this country for nothing. His errand was a black one, white as his hat was, and the effects of it are brew- ing now in Mexican councils, and will, some of these days, end in violence and bloodshed. ‘The policy of England in all this is to expose this country to all the evils of war, without exposing her- self. Mexico may be a weak, but she can hardly be acontemptible enemy—backed with British gold, animated with the sympathy, and drilled in cunning by the crafty councils of the British Cabinet. Mexi- co is, so equipped, fully fit to annoy a country which, although able to annihilate her, is pacific in policy, and magnanimous in proportion to her power, Our foreign rivals calculate thus to enjoy a double advantage, the indirect one of inflicting the evils of any war upon us, and of appropriating the spoils, in the form of increased commerce and unimpeded intercourse with the world, which they expect would follow the partial application of our resources to the prosecution of awar.

We are, therefore, strongly of opinion, from the accounts we have received, that this fearful disturb- ance is only in its commencement, and that its growth and progress have been encouraged by the weakness of the Executive and other authorities of the State, during the past few years. We have al- ready pointed out the origin ot these troubles among the political factions of this city as far back 1829.— Since that period of time it has been extending, and widening its force in the various counties of the State in which property is held by long leases, until now it has acquired a strength and intensity that givesita dreadtul hold on a large portion of the farming in- terest, and instigates them to murder, insurrection, and the vielation of law and the rights of property, And so rapidly has it increased in Columbia county, Rensselaer, Schoharie, and now in Delaware, that i; threatens to overrun the whole State. Not!long ago, an owner of real estate in this city, on a certain quarter day, on calling for his rent, was met by his tenant with a plain refusal to pay. ‘{ will not pay you,” said the tenant, ‘and what is more, | will not let you have your building unless you give me 20 dol- ars ” The excuse for not paying was some frivolous reason about painting a part of the house, and he ac- tually did persist in refusing to leave until it cost for urged to it by our foreign rivals; nor is it to be im- aslo nicks ‘ilin: aigei’ os dll The | sudieace, on Thursday evening next. scription?
