You have just heard a faithful exposition of th tion of the country. As to the past, it offers satisfactory rerults; pevertheless a state of general uneasiness tenda to increase daily. Everywhere labor grows slack, poverty augments. interests are alarmed, and aati-social expecta- tions ewell high in proportion as the exfeebled powers of the State approach their term Tao such a state of things the first care of the Ment must be to seek out the crane of avoiding the dao- ere which threaten, and ensuring the best chances of wefety. Already, in my last message, my words on this subject, [remember it with pride, were favorably re- weeived by the Assembly. I said to you :— ‘The uncertainty of the future gives rise to malay ap ‘prehepsions, while it awakens many hopes. Let us all be prepared to sacrifice these hopes to our country, and let ws give heed to its interests e. If, during this ses. sion. you vote for the revi: of the constitutiem, our constituent Assembly will remodel our fandameantal laws, snd fix the destiny of the executive power. If you do not vote it, the people of 1852 will solemuly mauifest the expreesion of ite will anew. Whatever may be the solution of the future, let us understand each other, in order tha! it may never be passion. ‘prise, or violence, which shall decide the fate of a nation.” ‘To day the questions are the same, and my duty is not altered. It is inflexibly to maintain order—it is to banish all caures of agitstion in order that the resolu. tions which are to decide our fate may be conceived amidst calm aud adopted without contest. Thase re lutions can emanate only from # decisive act of the ne- tional severrignty. since they are all based on the popu- lar election. ‘ell. now.

It is to be observed, how- in explanation of the present hora, that 8, in @ great measure, from the limited de- mand that exista for itin the comi ial world, by reason of the generally inactive state of trade. There are, besides, few new public companies being established, and consequently the demand for money for joint stock projects is limited Capitalists, at the same time, are not investing jargely in the railways or other public companies, so that there is but a restricted outlet for the em- ployment of the large sums of money now re- mi ig idle in the hands of the bankers, dis- count houses, and of private iadividuals. Tho present law of partnership it is, at length, geno- rally perceived, directly militates against the ab- sorption of spare capital, as, usder its opera tious, joint stock companies cannot ba froaly formed with sufficient advantage to those who are otherwise willing to support projacts of un. questionable utility, profit, or nationality; and it is well known that euch institutions absor! amount annually of surplus capital and savin, Were the law now what it ought to, and no doubt will be mm time, the present excess of supply over demand would find an immediate and profitable channel for investment, and also absorb whatever further supply, however large, that may be received from California and Australia. ‘The Bank of England directors have not made ary reduction in the rate of interest. They aro evidently guided not by the actual rates of money out of doors, contrasted with their own, but by the stute of commercial credit, which- it must be ac- Knovleeged, is not in the soundest state at present a3 the Tate and further failures unfortunately indicate. To the list of suspensions which have pecen thy taken place have now to be added the firms of Messrs. Forman and Howdow, of Miacing laue (alluded to under this head in our erty 3 impression), and Messsrs. Braggiotti, of Manches- ter; the latter in conse yuence of its connection witb Castelli & Co , and the former from the heavy decline in the prices of produce. The Paris stock market has been very unsettled all the week, and the tone has boen heavy, but tele- Gers advices just received state that a conside rable reaction took place yesterday, an extensive business having been transacted at a large advance in quotations, as tho speculaters are now of opi- nion that the new ministry will be able to stand their ground, and fina! iy, carry their‘measures, founded upon the tenor of the President's speech. ‘The English stcck market presents a firmer ten- dency this morning, and prices have advanced one- eighth per cent, wit) still an upward tone; bets have been made tbat consols will reach par. The present price is 98 to one-eighth for both money and account. There is no contango for the December accounts, thus showing that stock is of equal value to money, or, a3 it is technically called, that mone; is not worth anything—that is, that on the Sto! Exchange money is very plentiful, whilst stock ia somewhat scarce, and, therefore, parties in want of the latter can borrow it on the deposit of bank notes until the December settle- ment, without any rate of interest bein, charged for the money. The presen’ position o! the market consequently approaches to what is called a **backwardation,”’ or, what will be better understood by the public, a period when stock is worth more than money, which state of things oo- curs when money, being oxtremely plentiful, with no demand for it, and stock is scarce ard wanted, the dealers are anxious to obtain the latter upon the deposit of the former, and pay interest for the stock lent.

On Wednesday acarcely anything was done, and to day the operations were agaia unim- poctente in consequence of the smaliness of the quaa- ity offering. Forviga barley has throughout the wook been in fair request for grinding, aud has sold quite as well as betore. The brewers have purchased the finer descriptions of new malt freely, and for suca, relatively bigher prices than those at which old might have been bought, have heen paid. The ar- rivals of oats coast wise have been scanty, andthough a fow thousand quarters have been received from Ireland, and some few cargoes from abroad, the on- tire eupply bas not been large. The ing for this grain has not at any period been particularly activo, but needy buyers nave had to pay rather enhanced terms. The rise from Monday to Mon- day amounted to about 6d. per quarter; to-day an attempt was made to establish a further improve- ment, which caused the dealers to act on the re- serve, and the operations were on quite a retail scale.

The ap- peal was taken, not on the merits of the case, but one point of law. The point of law reserved for the dacivien of the supreme court was, whether an American citizen possessed the power to prosecate the defendant ps his agent; that agent being a foreign resident aud not a native of the Province. The merits of the case were not denied. Judge Arosemena gave it as his opinion tha: an Amerisan citizen, and consequently other foreigners, cannot appoint a fellow-countrymen ent to prose- cute suits or transact busin legally, under the laws of this province, and remanded the case to the lower court to be tried de novo, thus leaving it op- tional with the agent of the plaintiff to dismiss the suit and pay the costs, or suffer pxdqmens for costs to be entered up against him, besides subjecting bim to a loss of his rightful claim, the age ar of e Aro- which was not denied. The decision of Ju semena is based upon a law of the court, denying the right to native citizens to appoint foreigners their factors or agents; and he contends that if fo- reign residents here were permitted to appoint their fellow countrymen their attorneys in fact, or agents or factors, it would be conceding to them a right not enjoyed by native citizens themselves, and con- sequently they would posress a privilege above the citizens of the country. _ At first glance, the opinion of the Judge would appear specious, but we trust he will e: ine tho grounds of his argument, and come to an opposite opinion. And we trust be will permit us, as an micus Curia, to as out the provisions of the thirteenth article of the treaty between the repub- lic of New Granada and the United States, which says i— joth contracting parties promise and engage formaily to give their special protection to the persons and pro- perty of thecitizens of each other, of ali occupations, who may be in the territories subject to the jurisdiction of one or the other, transient or dwelling therein, leav- ing Cpen and free to them the tribunals of justice for their judicial recourse, on the same terms which are country If this article of the treaty had stopped here, the decision of Judge Arosemena would have been in accordance with the law and the treaty; but it goes to point out the mannor how the citizens of each country may have judicial receurse. Tho treaty specially provides that an American appear before the tribunals either in parson, or by **citi- zems or agents’—the words “agents” clearly in cating that other than ‘* citizens” wore intended: — For which purpose, they may either appear in proper perscn, or employ in (he prosecution or defence of their rights such advecates sollcitors, notaries, agents, and factors as they may judge proper in all their trials at law; and such citizens or agents shall have free oppor- tunity to be present at the decision or sentences of the tribunals in all cases which may concern them, and like- wire at the taking of all examinations and evidences which may be exhibited in the said trials ‘This latter clause in this article comes in asa pro- viso to explain the preceding part, and to ws ap- pears very plain—giving American residents here the right to choose who ey will appoint to trans- act their business during absence from the country. ‘The treaty here gives them the right to select tho “citizens” of the country, such as uilvocates, solici- tors, and notaries, who can be no cther than citi- tens of the country,—or they can appoint “ agents "who are not necessat citizens; and goes on to say that “euch citisens or gents,” ke —cleariy drawing a distinction be- tween a citizen and an agent, which could have no other reference than to their nationalty. Tho treaty is ambiguous in part, and asa whole, and its meaning and spirit is hard to uaderstand Its maia feature, however, is plainly to give the citizens of the United States the same rights and privileges as are enjoyed by the native citizens of bat this thirteenth artie!: are to of the treaty, and is intended, in our judgment, to eoure t ht of our fellow countrymen te appoint “agents” other than “citizens” to transact their business in suca cases as they may desire. We sincerely hope Judge Arogemena will review his decision, and come to one of an opposite charac- ter, a8 more in accordance with justice, if not eo strictly legal in his opinion. The Judge must see with bis clear mind, the hardship injustice his gecision is calculated to work, not enly upon tion With such a decision, foreigners will be very careful how they extend the ramifications of their business, or enter largely into trade, knowing that if an emergency calls them away, they cannot ap- pelot a fellow countryman their agent to carry on or cloee up their affairs. If the Judge's decision is a correct ope, the sooner tho Jaw is repealed the better it will be for both native and foreigner. {From the Panama Star, October 3 | We have heard a letter read, dated Chagres, 20th iret , the statements in which are aimoet too horri ble for belief It ia froma member of the famil, otMr. 1 Worms, a merchant ot this city, who left ere a few daya since in enfeebled health, for Ha- vane, accompanied by bis wife, ebild, sister, and a Dr, ‘tuntirgton, a talented young American phy- sician, who been on this coast for some years. ‘The letter says that on arriving in sight of Chagres, the boatmen seeing and hearleg the firing of guns onthe American side, refured to land "te party there, end took them over to the native side As the boat landed, Dr. Huptiogton jumped ashore, where Lo was beset by a crowd of negroes, who y cut bim into es.

Recent experience has shown that the use of fire is becoming an ordinary resource of the desperate aad depraved in executing their scieues of destruction and reverge. Proof of this may be found in the fact that three persops ate now under sentence of death, in this State, for arson in the first degree, while several are awaiting trial for the same offence.
