— = MORNING EDITION----THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1849. Our London Correspondence. Lonpon, August 17, 1819. The Condition of England—The Condinon of Evurope—Aristocracy and Democracy, &c., &¢. ‘These islands are ‘n a state of real tright, which pervades all the thinkers, and most of the writers and talkers upon the amazing phenomena of the ‘continent of Europe, as well as of the United States. The systematic effort to keep out the ‘Tight from the British people, on the subject of self- government, is less and less successful; and the whole of this despotism is reeling on its base. So- salled constitutional monarchy 13 hastening to its end; and the distressed and embarrassed state of ite defenders reminds one of the condition of those two hundred unfortunate old cavaliers, in bag, wig, and sword, who stayed up all night at the Tuileries to dyke out the populace, bent on having Louis XVI. prisoner in their large embrace next morning. The fresh energies of the peoples once aroused, are irresistible, and neither the dishevelled guardians of royatty in the last cen- tury, with their puny weapons, nor the panic stricken defenders of the same imposture in the “present, with their pens, can breast the rapidly ad- vancing tide. The law of nature bids that tide to rise—the law of Ged bids it swallow up, like another Red Sea of destruction, the same unjust and persecuting hosts who have, in our day, hung swith board and blade on the perilous but vulgar strack of Pharoah. The people are now the chosen of the Creator; the poor are God’s anointed. The high and primitive right of self-government has become the aspiration of the mass, and the pre- sumptuous eacrilege which dictates them to in- scribe “God and my right” on the crowa of England, 13 hastening to the ignominious end of punishment, or, at least, to the disgrace of a fall. ‘What insult and nonsense is it not, in such an enlightened age, for a weak woman to parade herself under that inscription of divine right, through those realins where live and breathe only to toil and suffer so many degraded millions of «ub- jects, stricken with the curse of poverty cowa below the estate of the slave himself? Aad, to smake it worse, the faleechood is pamted apon an effigy, for the Queen of England is but a pappet in the-hands of the real masters of the people. The oligarchy of vobles wre the absolute lords of those British heads and British hearts, whose hosts only require the breaking of ¢ chains to emalate sthe popular triampbs of the Usion and of Fraace. ‘The might tread of the people of the two great republics shakes the solid earth in these islands, and the composed faces of the grand and tided wear the expression of excitem-ut and alarm. ‘The United States have started forward so vi- gorousiy upon the road of prosperity, thacit is not possible for the aristocrats of Englind to cvaceal the march of events; wor will the cherished expe- dient of the press (which resorts, so far as you are concerned, to habitual lying.) any longer avail. [t is impossible to keep buck, or to pervert the lesson awhich you are teaching your oppressed aad ex- gicited brethren here, io regard to the interests and dunes of nations, There are many places all over England, Ireland, and Scotland, where vou may heer the echo of thet noble phrase of Jeffor- fon, “ obedi totyraats is resistance to God;” and even peasants are to be tound, who the arled despots of their fielis withstand; and students, whe have the courrge to think that Cromwell was guiltless of his country’s blood, and to protit by his example. ' seb But the splendid phenomenon of a republic in France is yet more startling than your ewn ex- ‘ample, even added to the precept, Go thoa and do likewiee,” which the Herald and other Am-ri- can papers propagete io their European editions. “There the structure of self goverament st the plain sight of the people of Euglind, two feet of universal suffrage and universal eligi uflrage bility to office. It lifts irs lofty form up to the gaze | of the remotest and most wretched tenant of the Connaught eabin or the Cornish mine, and invites him also tothe work of freedom aud iadependence. Hostile is that phenomenon, of course, to the ex- ecrable administranen " 7 and to the British Constitution; but it has y words of hope and eacouragement for those who are, by the evils of a government in whieh they have no part, crashed to the earth, and, indeed, while yet alwe, half-buried with its weight end cruelty. is mute appeal to the people ot England has more than the emphasis of language, for it springs from the heart; aad it makes its way withor into the heart to which it is directed. It is im- possible to retain the British people in their nbject subjection, a td as that injustice is combatted by the reproofs of France and America; bat it is from the former that comes the nearest and most menacing danger to the adverse system The diechon of the oligarchy 1s by these means becoming daily more critical, They feel it to the quick. Tut they are not sleeping upon the mine ; they are aware of their peril; the: iatend, a8 mach ap possible, to prolong their xathority, [will make j | the people in Parliament, short work with the verification of both these propositions ; and, having demonstrated them, I ‘will ask the people of New York to inquire tato aheir own duty, and to come up at once to the height of their power, and of their respoosimiity for their safe direction of that popular cause which is se rapidly giving them the lead ot affairs at home and abroad. ‘ The privileged classes have their most sensitive ‘feelers in the daily and periodical press, principally assued lon. Every article on general poli- tics, which appears in the former, might be cen- sulted to detect the presence of alarm Se! vation breaks down, with its great law, all coaven- tions ; and despite the dictites of pride, and the most vigilant diseretion, the hirelings who write for them betray the weakness within and the danger withoat. Their position of antagonists to the plain rights and interests of E: is hazardous, for the day of reckoning is notte be arrested in its ap- proach, nor willie sentence be suspended nor mi- tigated. Look, for , into the Times. any morning, end you will discover all the symptoms which just now are a sort of epdemic ague ami i the cisatlantic fraternity of editors. If jouthe the quarterlies, you will find abundant evidence most outspoken fe: duration of the monareby. Time allows me but two extrycts taken from the Quarterly for July, art.) “Mr. Bache warned usof the inserutable fluence, whether for good orevil, of France on i Europe in general, 4 on_England, and this great sufficient justification for our continued en deavors to awaken the English public to a livelier interest as to the revolutionary principle which his again been triumphant in France, and which we are convi formidable progression ameungst ourselves.” So much for the bevinuing ef the ar- ticle. We add only the concluding sentence which sume up, by an explicit admission that the mo- narchy 1s in danger. “On the whole, we regret to ay that we have never concluded a review of the state of our own country, or ef Europe, with less of comfort for the present, less of confidence in the fotare, or with a greater perplexity probable solution of the complicated ditfcal ‘that are gathering round the British monarchy ” It is evident enough that the aristocracy, and ite ind editors, are alive to their danger; but they are incessantly engn, it.

Sneersat the character of your functior aries and journals, and ridiculous passages (real or counterfeit,) of passing history, are scattered through the paper.

The Imperial Conspiracy Against Repub'icanism— ‘The Pleasure Trip of the Quien—Venice Before Her Fall, &¢. &c. Republican opinionsare inveterately, but warily, attacked in Europe, through all the organs of mo- narchy and artstocracy, headed by those of the Britith oligarchy. The war 1s counselled and con- ducted in London, whence lie extended in every direction the wires of communication with the enemies of the hnman race ia Berlin, Vienna, and Rome, and St. Petersburgh, and even in Paris. The is a constant, intimate, perfectly telegraphic teligence of every movement in this campaiga against homan rights, kept up with the continent. Lights are always burning ia the dens of conspiracy at Downing street and Printing-House square, where the head and heart of the great eabal plot io permanence and concord. Meanwhile, the royal pageant cruises about in the waters of Ire. lund and Scotland, to distract public attention, and to carry off, by its decoy, all whose curiosity might be properly directed. He who thinks that the little | s uneasy head which wears the crown is good for anything in the contest of principle, now so fairly | opened, mistakes entirely the nature of the English eystem. To weigh the crown itself in the scale of forces drawn up in such hostility to freedom and progress, is hardly just; for the crown ot England bas no political power. The error of a contrary opinion is as great ag the kindred misapprehension that under the same system the people of England have the slightest agency in the government. They have none whatever. They are nothing, and cannot do anything 1n politics. They are mere ciphers, which might as well rot be counted at all, for they stand entirely apart, without the slightest | power of making themselvesjseen, or felt, or heard, or understood. The so called representatives of theme of contempt, by any person instructed the secret. An oligarchy of about one thousand men send the majority ef members to the Com- mons, and none but their delegates, of course, sit amongst the peers. As much as five millions of mule udulte are curtailed by these gentlemen in the | most valuoble right of manheod—the right to vote.
