I was standing within a few feet of the spot, and heard partof itatthetime. On the name of the young gentleman being repeated, and the town from which 1¢ came, the king’s eves brightened | up—" Ah! Nashville,” said he, “1 know Nash- ville well.” He then made a number of inquiries respecting the present appearances end changes | effected since he visited the town. He showed a | minute knowledge of the coun'ry, and extended his remarks as tar as the Hermitage. “ When 1 was in Nashville,” continued the king, ‘it was | court cay. There were many persons there. The judges, jurors, witnesses, plaintiffs, and de- | fenaants, filled all the public houses. I coul | scarcely get accommodation at the hotels. Many | had to sleep three in a bed. I believe it was | called bundling. Do they any thing like that now in Nashville?” ‘ No,” replied young Armstrong, with a smile, “ we now think two in a bed quite | sufficient.” The king laughed heartily, saying, | “Excuse my joke—excuse my joke,” and then | passed to the next gentleman. Steam naviga- | tion across the Atlantic seemed to be the promi- | nent basis of his remarks with the Americans.

It has blown a gale at the east most ef the time since Saturday, which has caused much derange- ment with the mails, and the boats on the Sound. The express mail, together with several passen- gers for the steamer, which left here Sunday afternoon, arrived at Greenport sbout9 o’clock | The steamer Worcester was un- able to leave there till about 8 o’clock Monday P. M., on account of the gale. We gave it as ouropinion ia the Sunday Herald, that the Norwich boat would go no farther than Hart Island, till morning, after leaving here on Saturday night, and that it was extremely doubt- ful whether she performed the trip across to \f Musical.

The same opera will be repented on Thursday, and agein ‘on Friday evening.

The excellent company of sing- ere who have been delighting ux during the present sea. gon, as well as their orchestral ids, have shown tham- fel folly competent to the task of giving life, beauti- ful delightful life, to the emanation’ of the composer. ‘Tar ALLeonaniane.—We un ‘orstand the Alleghanians will give their next concert, at the Tabernacle, on Mon- day evening, March 15th.

With respect to the merits of the controversy, it is difficult to reach the rationale exactly, either | in documents or newspapers of the two govern- | ments. It seems, however, that Louis Philippe | and his ministers, have outgeneraled Victoria and her cabinet—and that the vanity of the English have suffered more than their pride will brook. This quarrel, however, has led the way to some singular results on foreign nations. It prevents, for the present, the joint intervention of France | and England in the war between Mexico and the | United Siates ; and thus gives a fair chance to | our government to extend real republican institu- | tions to the vast regions in California and Northern | Mexico. The result of the Montpensier quarrel in Europe is «f an opposite tendency for the pre- | sent. Itis generally believed that the three des- potic northern powers have seized the same op- portunity to putan end to the republic of Cra- gow, which, in fact, was more arepublic in name | than in reality, and thus to create a prodigious | Sensation among the liberal governments and peo | ple, that may produce a general movement | of the public mind in Europe in favor of some new crisis, similar to that which Luther and Cal- | vin created in religious liberty, or Rousseau and | his cotemporaries did in relation to political free | dom. France, at this moment, is in a most singularly | tranquil state, as regards religion and politics. | There are food riots in the provinces, as they are | called; but the singular talents of Louis Philippe, who is his own prime minister, have thrown the | city of Parisand the whole country intoa mes- | meric condition, as regards the further progress of political rights and liberty. The character of | the French is rapidly changing They are ap- | proximating in their social condition to that of the United States. In Paris, attempts are made to | introduce English customs, English ideas, and English modes of life; but Iam persuaded that | ideas and habits, resembling those in the United | States, will prevail in process of time. The king, himself, hes given to the court circles a tone and | style that beara much greater similitude to that | which he saw in the United States, during hi! visit there, than to any of the other courts in | Europe. The presentations at court—the balls atthe Tuilleries, the general style of society, are somewhat more like those at Washington than of those in London. It is said that the Duc de Ne- | mours, the regent that is to be, will introduce, on | the death of the present king, the exclusive re- | gime of the English court; and if he should do | so, he will render himself extremely unpopular, and may put the dynasty in the same dangerous | position which the elder Bourbons did. Lows Philippe seems to be the only monarch | who really understands how to manage the French in atime of peace, during the last two | hundred years. Louis the XIV., and Napoleon could manage them only by being forever in wal; but Louis Philippe alone, has guided them for fit. | teen years, in the midst of émeutes and attempts { at assassinations, in peace at home and abroad, | at a cost, it is true, of about 200,000,000, added | to the public debt. He has increased the splendoy ; and magnificence of Paris—added vastly to their works of art—filled Versailles with hundreds o paintings—opened new and beautiful streets in the snetropolis—commenced a magnificent system of | railroads,radiating in all directions, created a great | navy of steam power, and given to the arid plains | of Barbary over one hundred brave Frenchmen, | who would have made half a dozen revolutions | if they had been permitted to remain in Paris, | instead of fighting the Arabs and Abdel Kader. Louis Philippe is decidedly the most remarkable and original man of the age, now occupying his high position—and 1am constrained to believe that a large portion of his political and social wisdom was picked up during his sojourn in the United States.

That it will be the last, indeed, we are pretty sure ef; be- cause, in about six weeks or two months hence, we shall have a weekly communication with England by means of the new Cunard line, the new American line, and the new French line, | which the Minister of Marine assured Mr. Ben- | summer. The vessels belonging to these lines, | ;ogether with the Sarah Sands and those of the Great Western line, will enable one steamship at | least to leave here every week.

We have observed, in all the official reports of the exportation of cotton manufactures from Great Britain to Brazil, Buenos Ayres, and Montevideo, that there has been, within the past year, a very great increase in the shipment to these | countries. In every instance where the manufactures of | Great Britain come into competition with those of the | | United States, the preference is given te those of this | country ; but as these manufactures are confined almost | entirely to a description of coarse cottons, such as we | | call domestics, the competition is as yet not very exten: | | tensive. In every description of fine cotton goods, the | | manufacturers of Great Britain monopolize the markets | | of South America, as well as those of every other part of | | the world. The domestic manufacture of these goods | ‘We are compelled to retain for domestic consumption, and it will be sometime before we can fully supply that d mand, to say nothing about supplying foreign markets. | + We shall, in time, make our appearanco in all the markets | | of the world. | Tn nearly every table of British exports, which have come under our notice, we have observed a falling off in | | almost every article exported to this country.
