Kina, of Hudson county, New Jersey, was on Thursday nominated by the whigsin convention, a8 & candidate for the suffrages ot the party in the Fifth Congressional District of that State, now repre- sented by the Hon. 1). 8. Gregory. MISSISSIPPI. ‘The Presidential contest in the State of Miesissippi, is becoming animated, and parties are arraying them- selves with zeal, under the banners of their respective favorites. A kind of camp-meeting was held at Ray- mond, on Friday and Saturday, the 22d and 23d ult., at which the principal apeakers of the State were present; but the crowd of sovereigns seems, from the accounts, to have been limited. Speeches were made by Messrs. Wm. R. Niles, Wm. A. Lake, W. S. Bodiey apd Amos R. Johnson, on the part of the whigs, and Gov. J. W, Matthews, ex-Gov. W. C. MeNutt, W. Mc- Willie, and Senator H. S. Foote. After dark on Friday evening, the otber United States Senator, Col. Jefierson Davis, and Gov. Brown, ‘addressed the people at the court house. Col. Davis id @ merited and most eloquent trilute to General ‘aylor, an account of which is thus given by a corres- pondent of the Vicksburgh J’hig, who, in speaking of is speech, says:— “He ran over some of the prominent measures of pub- lic policy in which he took an interest daring the late session cf Congrees—spoke in terms of severe con- demnation concerning the “defection” of Benton and Houston on the Oregon bill—said nothing about Polk — gave out that the Northern democrats were no longer worthy of being called “allies of the South,” and he should never in speak of them as such ; and came at last, with dent reluctance, to the Presidential contest. Ho raid if any person expected him to speak evil of Genera! Taylor, they would be disappointed He knew no evil of the old hero, and spoke of him as ‘one of the purest and noblest men the world had ever teen. The Colonel seemed greatly moved in speaking of General Taylor, and his eulogy on the old man was, beyond all question, the finest we ever heard. It was received with thunders of involuntary applause. He referred to the kindners most ral regard shown by General Taylor to the Mississippians under biscommend. and was again interrupted by cheers. He said the old general stood god-father to the sons of Missirsippi when, amid the warand smoke of the fight, they wore baptized in blood on the heights of Buena Vista—and was again compelled to pauge by & hurricane of applauro. He said that during the pro- gress of the battle, after he (Col. Davis) was wounded, Gen, Taylor came and sat down by him—the firm de- terminaiion on his brow seemed atroggling with an expreesion of deep sorrow for the brave fellows who had fallen and thore who were yet to bite the dust— when, on being interrogated as to his purposes, he ro- lied, while the fire of an uncon juered will gleamed in is eye—" my wounded are behind me, and | shell no- ver pass them alive!’ About this time, the crowd be- came £0 excited that they were almost ready to carry the colonel from the stand. But he was not done yet. He raid that, after all, General Taylor, ina political point of view, must be regarded as identified with tho party which had nominated him; and that he (tha colonel) would be obliged to vote for Cass and Butler, Following up his remarks, he denounced Van Buren, and expressed the hope and confidence, that Cass would prove move honest than the Sage of Lindenwald. ‘Throvghout his speech, at every turn, he confessed in substance. that nothing but his allegiance to the party which had elected him United States Senator, Testrained him from voting for General Taylor. He substantially admitted, that his duty to his party was more imperative than his duty to his country. The filends ot General Taylor, who heard his eulogy upon the old hero, and his portraiture of his character, firmpers, honerty and ability, unanimously concurred in the wish that he would make the eame speech thronghont the whole State. It wae calculated to give to Gen, Taylor the support of every democrat who loved his country more than he did his party, and of every voter who desired the election of an honest and competent man to the Presidency, over a rcheming and deceitful politician. Emanciration in Detawark.—A mammoth etition is in circulatio praying the legislature to abolish slavery in that State. It is re celving the signatures of nearly all the citizens of thi glorious little State. The Biue Hen's Chicken says that, “from appearances, it will be one of the largest petitions ever eflered to the Delaware legislature.” It will be recollected that an effort was made in the legis- lature, » ycar ago, to abolish slavery, and it was very near being successful. This aroused the people to the conrideration of the subject, and it will, doubtless, be accomplithed. Oxp axp New Exerann.—Out of every hundred persons in In land, forty canuet write their bames. In Maseachuretts, according to tho last con- sur, but one person in every two hundred is in thin condition ; and nearly all these ate recent emigrants from Ewope, The brig St. am Key, reports that the rait works there wore almost destroyed by the gale of Avgust 26th. Croix, which MORNING EDITION-- Our Berlin Correspondence. Beruin, September 18, 1848, The Position of Affairs in Germany. The defeat of the Ministry of Anerswald, and the retirement of the whole former cabinet,has caused a state of excitement and confusion, only to be compared with the time immediately succeeding the days of the revolution. A new revolution, in fact, though without the loss of lives, and without the violation of the laws of public order, has been accomplished. A government has been over- thrown, which had openly disowned and denied the revolution, and had endeavored to re-establish the old political system, by means of a new police order, and by exercising all measures which were opposed to the hbeity of the people. Under its administration, the rights of free assemblage had been restiicted, the liberty of speech and of the press infringed, a syscem of inguisition had been enforced, und ‘all, who expresssd their opinions against the government, hud been persecuted wad imprisoned ; the military and police torces had been increased ; and, above all, the authority of the representatives of the people in the National Assembly had been resisted, and their resolutions and decrees not carried out, or disregarded. But the cause of the revolution has again been tni- umphant. The old government has expired imme- diately after its defeat in the chamber, and its decease is lamented by few. Every one now looks forws towards the new overnment which is now about being formed. r. Von Beckerath, who has been charged with forming # new cabinet, arrived here on the 14th, and has succeeded in the composition ot a minis- try. ‘The members of the new cabinet will be presented to the National Assembly to-morrow, but are not yet appointed, and cannot be named with certainty. It is known, however, that certain people, have been found willing to enter upon the difficult task. which the new muntstry will have to pertorm. The carrying out of the deeree of the National Aesembly, issued on the 9h of August, Tespecting the dismissal of those officers of the army who cannot reconcile their political opinions with the new order of things, will have to be the first act of their government. ‘The difficult posi- tion in which the new ministry will be placed, with regard to the chamber, in which the ultras are now the leading party, and with regard to the determined will of the monarch, to make no con- cessions to the National Assembly beyond the power to settle a constitution, 1s obviou: _Inaccepting the resignation of the ministers, the King declared that the National Assembly had no authority to decree on measures which it belonged to the executive power to conduct: aud on the other side the National Assembly will not give the Ministry the majority, without that the latter recognise }ts authority in all matters concernimg the interests of the state. If the new ministry. may be able to maintain itself tor any length of time, it wil only be by a sort of masterly inactivity. which, more or less, it has become the policy of the governments @t Europe to adopt, since the are unable to stem the tide of the revolution with any prospect of success. Mr. Von Beckerath is one of the distinguished orators of the first Prus- sian States Assembly, to which also the late mi- nister, Camphaueen, who is now the representative of the Prussian government at Frankfort, be- longed. The different parties of the National As- comb now hold frequent meetings, mm which they consult about the policy they will follow with re- spect to the new cabinet. All are united to main- tain the authority of the Assembly agaist any at- tempt from the part of the new goverment to con- tinue the course which has been adopted by the late mimstry, in obtay: mene commanding a too prest influence on the deliberations of the assem- ly. It is the cause of much regret to the majority of the people, that the influence of the late govern- ment on the National Assembly has frequently occasioned the latter to make concessions to the former in the constitution, which is now being settled. The excitement oul preraals here about the erisisin the cabinet, and the present uncertain state of things, has been deepened by the difficul- ties which have arisen between the government here and at Frankfort, on the question of the ar- mistice with Denmark; and in consequence of disturbances which have taken place in diflerent parts of the country, caused by the military.+ A revolutionary movement 1s also preparing among the Prussian army, and a great part of it 18 desi- rous that certain reforms in the present ae system should be made. The disunctions which have till now existed between the milttary and the civil rank, are in many respects in opposition with the new order ot things, and conflicts of every description must continually ensue, if they are not abolished, . Numerous placards, expressing the public opinion on this matter, and discussing the subject with great warmth, now daily appear. _ A great public meeting was held yesterday, for the purpose of deliberating on this question, and settling the following points, which will give some explanation as to the proposed reforms. First.—How are the decrees of the National As- sembly, iseued on the 9th of August and 7th of Septem- ber, to be understood? Second.—What is the position of the military, with relation to the people and to the burgher guard? Third.—How can @ union of the military and the people be brought about ? i Besides all these subjeets and questions, another circumstance at present increases the general ex- citement. Itis the cholera, which 1s raging in this city, and is daily assuming a more serious character. The number of cases, at an average, are now one hundred a day. Our Dutch Correspondence, Rorrerpam, Aug., t Educational Reform in Holland. One of the measures now being considered by the Dutch legislature, as a necessary concession to the people in these revolutionary times, is the abolishing of the present unfair restrictions on education. At present, and it has thus been since 1306, though a man has passed the required examination as a proof of his competency to the task of edu- cating youth, he is prevented by law from estab- lishing a school. ‘The consequence 18, that there are now 80 many under masters, that the profession is inundated with them. ‘They are badly paid by principals, and are not allowed by law to be their own masters. ; ; The legislature propose taking off these restric- tions ina great measure, by allowing every mem- ber of the profession, when he has passed his examination, to begin a school on his own ac- count. Thisis just, to one and all; though the present established masters and the clergy ot the reformed church are bitterly opposed to these measures. However, they will be carried—there is not the shadow of a doubt. The contrary result of the deliberations of the States’ General, would be accompanied, itis feared, by a demonstration on the part of the people, by no means of a salutary character. Our Tarkish Correspo: Consrantinor Affairs of Wallac hi The affairs of Wallachia continne to progress accor- ding to the wishes of the Porte. Advices of the 12th of this month, received from Bucharest, announce that a deputation is about to be sent here with a view of making «statement of the complaints of Wallachia against Prince Ribesco, whoso recall they demand. This deputation will also have for its object to confer with the Sublime Porte on the modifications which thould be made to the kind of charter which the Wal- Igchians adopted on the day of their reyolation, Al- ready Sulemian Pacha has informed the provisional government of the different points on which rest the objections of bis goverment. ‘The Sublime Porte will not allow the unlimited liberty of the press, the Na- tional Guard, universal sufirage, and disapproves the fixing the duration of the power of the ['rince to five years, All these objections of Sulemian Pacha have been received with much moderation by the pro- visional government, who have promised to Tevise, in concert wiih him or with his government, all the ai ticles which have not yet obtained the adhesion of the government of the Porte. The provisio' govern: ment has also promited that no article of the new con. stitution shall bave any offect until it has received the epprobation of the Sultan, Butit appears that the good dispositions of the provisional government are not ehared by the Wallachian people, who, oa the contrary, have exhibited, on many occasions, » epirit ot bate and hostility gaint the Turks, [t {ste be feared thet Russia will profit by this, to bring the qnesticn under her influence, ‘It is sai that the Kureians who were at Jassy, wero abouc to pursue their route, and to enter Bucharest, This is a roport which bas circulated within the last todays, but I think ft want nfirmation, On Wednerdey evening last, abovt 7 o'clock, a tira breke out at the Mazzini, near the vid bridge here.

It is not only in the interest of the pecple that I have criticised the economical system fol- lowed in France ; it is also in the interest of tho mid- dle classes, as you may easily conceive yourself, by throwing your eyes over my iittle book on the Organi- sation du Travatl : and if [have required that to the principle of individualiem was substituted progressive- ly that of association, based upen the sentiment of nity, it is precicely because the principle of individualism bas appeared to me an endiesi source of hatred, tof jealousy, of divisions, of tyran- nies emanating from above, of revolts proceeding from beneath. Now, sir, when you say that my ideas have the tendency to iegitimate insurrection under all cir- cumstances, you hurl against mo an accusation which is contradicted, most undoubtedly, by every page of my books, by each line of my speeches. Here, again, it is by quotations that I must answer you. Open L’His- torre des Dix Ans— you will reada passage relating to 4 celebrated insurrection :— It wonld be to hold in too slight estimation reason and equity, to make their triumph dependent on the chances of a coup!de main, Wirdom and time are necessary, and patience is also ® republican virtue. Assuredly it is the property and the glory ef choice spirits to be in advance of their epoch, but to do vielence to society is permitted to no one.”—(L Histoire des Diz Ans, tome 5, page 428.) I have written likewite in the Organisation du Trav “Violence is to be feared only when discussion is forbidden. Order has not better shields than study. It anger rometimes chastises evil, it is impotent for the production of good. A blind and savage impatience can only heap up ruins, under which the seeds of jus- tice and love would be smothered. It is not the ques- tion as to the displacing of wealth, but as to its uni- versal expansion and multiplication, For the happi- ness of all—-of all without exception—it behooves us to elevate the level of humanity.” Organisation duT'ra- vail, page 21.) I could, rir, if I did not fear to make this letter too long, multiply my quotations. I could produce here DuMmerous passages extracted from my speeches at the Luxembourg, and you would porceive that I have every where condemned, as equally puerilo and fearful, the extruvagances of force, and that | have always placed the victory of justice in the calm and regular develope- ment of public reason by the liberty of the tribune, by the liberty of the press, by the right of discussion. In twelve years | have written much. Well, if there exists in my booke, in my speeches, one word, one single word, which is an appeal to violence, to brute force,— let itbe shown tome! [affirm that it is impossible to produce such a word. For the rest, sir, there is a fact which cannot be con- tested, which now belongs to history, and which speaks more loudly in my favor than allransonings, Whilst I remained at the Luxembourg, and when | had it in my power to act upon the peopie, did the slightest disorder take placo?
