General Cavaignac will be a sate President; and the election of General Taylor is a subject of pretty general congratulation in Great Brttain. General Cass was looked upon as a seeond Pan! Jonee—one who would, if elected, seek an annual amusement in cutting the throats ot his neighbors, and burning our harbors. His diplomacy at Paris had exposed him to the charge of intrigue, and his speeches on the Oregon question had been peca- liarly anti-English. His defeat has, therefore, been | particularly acceptable, and our personal dislike of the man has disposed us to be fiiendly to his oppo- nent. neral Taylor is rather a favorite than otherwise; and although he owes his election prin- cipally to our manufacturing rivals, we see 1n his peace policy an atonement tor his pro-tariff propen- sities. The President elect will, no doubt, make an excellent chief magistrate; but, nevertheless, he may disappoint all our anticipations. He may, so far as he 1s cuncerned, attempt to increase the re- strictions on trade, and 1s ve ry likely to do 80; and he may, after all, be compelled to sacrifice to the | growing martial spirit of his country. Peace or war does not always depend upon individual feel- | ing; and General Taylor may find it necessary to go quite as far as General Cass could have gone in | the business of the acquisition of territory. Neither | | could go very far. We ail remember that Lord | Ellenborough was recalled from India because of | his warlike pohey, and that Sur Henry Hardinge was sent out in his place because ot his pacific po- liey. Sir Henry, before his departure, devoured the usual qvantity of official roast beef, and swale Jowed the becoming quantity of champagne; and there are on record the many speeches he made after dinner, one and all proclaiming that he would govein Iodia in the spint of the Peace Society. — | kde had, however, hardly landed in Caicutta, when the voice of war was echoed throughout {ndia; aud he owes his tive to one of the most formidable warsever waged in India. General Taylor is in theory a man ot peace—his trade 1s thai ot war. Happily, however, his country 1s so situated that War 18 now almost impossible. “When I was a gardener’s son,” says Claude Me/notie, ‘‘no one discovered the merits which all see in me as a prince.” When General Taylor was chastising the Indians, Europe wus partially ignorant of his name; but now that he 1s a president, his character is public property. Flattery, not sa- tisfied with disclosing hs individual excellence, delights in exalting the future at the expense of the present chief magistrate of the States. Polk isa democrat, end has, therefore, been odious in the eyes of toryism; and liberalism, which is always occupied in the suicidal process of cutting its own throat, joins eagerly in the work of disparagement, so general is the propensity to depreciate, that even the most radical paper# sail on the current of calomny; and we even find the following in the Daily Nave, @ journal usually 80 candid and cor- reci— “dlthough his profession is that of war, General Tay- Jor ig. A wan Of pence. Theduty whieh evolved upon Lim in Mexico he performed reluctantly byt gallantly Hie moderation in victory was equal to his skill and when we read the Spectator’s vaticinations touch- ing the “‘ coming winter.” } nr cotemporary can see but one course; and ositively refuses to be comforted. Our exports fave fallen off, as to both raw materials and ma- nufactured goods--“‘a great part of the foreiga trade is expunged”—“numbers will be out of work this winter;” and there is no hope tor us till “Europe is quiet again: till that day, checked ) trade for England—chronic pauperism.” [t carinot be denied, indeed, that food 1s cheap and pleatifal, that the prices of manufacturing materials are low, and the stocks large, and that money is even ‘‘re- dundant.” Our doletul cotemporary, however, while explicitly admitting their truth, can only re- gard such representations as ‘elaborately delu- tve;” and, after due consideration of all the evidence, thus announces what we have to prepare for:—*‘The chill season, then, comes on, with every prospect of commerce stagnant, our manu- facturing popalation in want, Ireland begging at her utmost, railways swallowing up money and disgorging less, economy itself fending a hand to Ughten the screw, and trade thoroughly frozen by protracted panic.” a 4 {t is hard to contend against the will to despond. However, we will try what we can do. Prices of provisions and manufacturing materials are low,” says the Spectator, but whatthen? That, he con- tiues, is “good tor the consumer, but how for the producer?” That, we answer, depends upon cir- cumstances. And what are the circumstances ia thiscase ? Whatis that the price of which 1s in question? Food. That we are all consumers of. And to have that cheap, seeing that its price not only enters into the cost of production of every thing else we consume, bnt also determines how much of our incomes we shall have to spare for the purchase of other things, 1s surely good forall. It isthe main element of commercial prosperity ina country like this, one which cannot be dispensed with, and which has never, in the whole course of our commercial history, been long in operation without bringing the rest into play. That low prices commonly inducé complaints trom producers and that such complaints are not only indications of any ihe blameworthy on the part of the sufler- ers, is well known. Who that remembers the stimulus. given to our trade by the low prices of corn in 1834, ’85, °36, does not also remember that he merry bustle of the towns was accompanied by sad wailing among the farmers, and that one of | the prineipal events ot the session of 1836 was a solemn investigation by the House of Commons of the causes of “agricultural distress?” Again, the summer of 1814, which saw the manufaciurers busy and prosperous, found the farmere behind- hand with their rents, and their laborers buraing the ricks of the masters who could not employ them for-want of money-—corn being plentiful, and prices low. . So the present low prices of sugar and coffee are ruinous to the producers. of these arti- cles; particularly as a derangement of the currency has compelled them, simuttaneously, to meet al their engagements. It is a pity. that a public bene- fit should ever be allied with private suffering.— But itis, on a wide view ¢f our condition as a community, well that among the violent fluctua- tions which have partially disorganized our com- merce, there are some the results of which tend to facilitate whatever eflorts we may now make to Tepair the damage done. Our cotemporary is equally unable to under- stand what consolation can be derived from our having on hand aimple etocks of the raw materials of our chief manufactures, selling at low prices. Especially is he puzzled by our remark. that re- | duced prices of raw materials “offer larger profits | to the manufacturer.” In discussing subjects of | this kind, itis easy to make a diflerence about the mean ng of a word, the foundation of a difference in argument, The fact to which we alluded, is cbvious enough; nor can we admit that our mode | of stating itis deficientin clearness. However, put itthus: The manufacturer’s profit is, as we un- derstand it, all ke can get for his goods beyond the cost of production. A chief item of that cost 18 the price of the raw material. It that price falls, the margin of profit is increased. True, the min facturer 1s 00n forced by competition to lower his price too, but lower prices induce larger consump- ton; and it he sells more, though at the same rate of profit, he is stilla gainer. Hence, a fall in the price of the raw material is always an advan- tage to the manufacturer, Let food also be cheap, | £0 that the bulk of his customers may not have to spend all they get upon articles more pressingly necessary than the wares he pioduces, and,he has befoxe him what we consider very fair ground tor hope that he will not be long unemployed, or even half employed. We donot undMrate the disadvantage of having the continent in its present unsettled state. But it is not without 1's, compensatory eflects to those who, like ovrselves, take no part in its disturb- ance. Wales, the lakes, and other resorts of tour- ists in this country, have never been so crowded as they are this year (and that not with penniless “refugees,” as the Spectator would have us be- Levedy ang it isthe sume with all the chiet water- ing places. wares! part of the “unproductive expen- diture” which 1n former years went to swell “for- eign commerce,” now goes on at home. Our manulacturers sell less on the continent, and more in England. If less halt-wrought miterial (as yarn, &e ) is sent to our neighbors, they are less likely to meet us in third markets; and even their home consumption, much of which 18 postponed rather than stop,ed, must ultimately be supplied fiom our markets—these continuing to offer all the advantages of a cheapness which is not com- patible with the interruption of trade by wars and rumors of wars. Our difficuities are obvious enough—they are not small--to surmount them we shall need all our courage and energy; but we do not anywhere Ferceive a disposition to under-estimate them, though i some quarters we have doleiul antici- patione-—on the score, apparently, of certain tavor- ite ste teemen not being in office.

Ineanticipr 1n Cuiya.—Itappearsfrom the evidence | of Mr. Smith, an American missionary, that the prac- tice of infanticide in China, epoken of by some travel- lers, really eXists. This cruel custom obtaias, how- ever, among the poorer classes only, and the victims are exclusively giris. Ina place called Kean Yingehoo, in the province yf Fokien, five days from Canton. there are said to be no less than five or six hundred infanti- cides per month... The réasoa why this barbarous prac- tice does not exist im Canton is, that this city con- | tains a foundling hospital, where at least 5,000 femule infants of the poorer classes ate received annually. Mr, Smith found. in the neighborhood of Amoy, that out of six girls there were generaliy sacrificed some- times four, oocasiona)ly five; the number, indeed, vary- ing with the poverty of the parents. The child is ge- nerally killed immediately after birth, either by plung- ing it into water, or by strangling it, or closing ite mouth and nostrils with a wet rag, or placing tice in its mouth. If in a family boys end girls are born alternately, this is regarded as @ good sign, the girls escape death. Infanticide is, however, far from being approved by the whole coiamunity. to be hoped that ere long this abominable practice will have been so stigmatised by public opinion as to be altogether abandoned. Mr. Smith does not say how the authorities view these proceedings.

About four o'clock, the peopia were awakened by the cry of fire, which proved to be a horse and carriage barn. a wood shed and corn house, &o., belonging to Samuel Wilbur, on the west side of Winter-green Hill, haifa mile northwest of this vil- | lage. Mr. W. was frst awakened by the kicking aad flouncing of his horses, and on arising to ascertain the cause, discovered his barn was on fice; and such was the rapidity of the flames that, notwithstanding the barn was very near the house, before he opened the stable door the poor horses were suffocated, and perished in the flames, together wit! d nearly all his farming utensils, But the worst remuins to betold It was probably set on fire by his tather- in-law, with whom he and his wife had serious di foul: ty about the farm snd property, of which the'old gen: tieman bad been the tormer owner.
