Skeich —- Country Rides — Dangers of the Roads-Arrivals, §¢ At war a beautiful day yesterday; the water of the last three days raining, was swept away by the winds of the night previous, and the sun came out im smiles to see the carth after her washing; it was a day of all others, for a country ride, and in less than an hour, a group of girls had donned strong Grerses, and were ready to embark on their novel adventure. A great wagon drawn by country ani- wale, was the vehicle for the occasion, and into this @er merry party were stowed away. Oh, such soads! Our ample wagon was like a miniature ark of particularly clumsy make— now rising on the tip-top of a billow, and suddenly sinking almost out ef sight; but the patient animals drew us up aad down through hills on whose impracticable yeughness no city hack could be trusted. Then we had an overturn, and that was the climax of the day’s enjoyment, for nobody was hurt, and everybody laughed, and perpetrated stale witti- isms, and laughed at them again, till the birds re no doubt convinced that upsetting a wagon is one of the rarest sports we humansepgage in. Next the horses, panting as if worn out, set their forward feet stubbornly down, refusing to part ig pe! with the turf, even for an instant. The driver flourished his whip—the gentlemen coaxed the horses, soothed the driver, and laughed with us, who, with comical glances, half of mirth, half of anxiety, nibbled the tips of our gloves, and wondered what we should @o. Thenal! at once, one prying fellow of our party, announced that a spring was broken, or something of that sort had occurred, to which the provokin, driver responded that a horse had lost a shoe; an 0. as in duty bound, we alt laughed—not heartily, but a nervous, bysterieal laugh. men looked perplexed, f held—rather short, to be sure, as consultations are api to ke when there remains but one path to choose The houee is rapidly filing @ay, from Wi ington, we mmaber of Congress from « inw)iy. of the United Aneiier Summer —and then cach gentleman tucked hislady under his | are now heirg carried out in the building Apenague creek, a | arm, and on we jogged to the romantic and beauutul stream the Springs. out a mile from ‘This stream must not be dismissed with a passing notice.

There is less fement in Boston, and great excitement is fatal to health Hut there is one thing that ributes very much to the health of Bostonians, not- withstanding the drizzling east wind with which they are sootten visited. It is their magnificent and spacious Common, in which there is always a breeze. and where the citizens of all clastes duily inhale fresh air, and take exercise. There are shade trees. and seats arranged all through it. and places where a drink of water can be had by the thirsty. In New York there is no such place, and the citizens donot il themselves of even what they have—the Battery. the City Hall and the squares, One day last week persons were placed at ali the en- trances to the Common, and it was found that in three hours of the evening 75.000 persons had entered the Common. It is to be hoped that the city fathers of New York will let the people have a decent Park up town, where they can exereise their limbs and enjoy the pure air of heaven, and it is also to be hoped that they will save New York from the bad reputation it hae, of being the dir- tiest city in the world. ‘The hotels here are not very full at present—many of the boarders having gone te the bathing places—to Sara- toga, Lebanon Springs. and the White Mountains, few. if any, have gone to Newport, this y mont House having failed, Stevens. of the has got hold of it, and is repairing it for a r der Lis own auspices. opening un- He will carry on the Revere at the same time.

Tt has been truly amusing, for the last fortnight, to see the grand rush to the stores of the various dealers in ‘distilled death and damnation,’ of all classes of the counmunity, to secure a sufficiency of the evil to laet until the cloud paases over. An immense quantity of liquor has been sold There ig hardly a retailer but that has disposed of as much ag ordinarily he would eell in a year; and rmuny of them sold more. x As the fatal day spnecached; the fever increased, and spread most alarmingly. Active friends and advocates of the Maine law, and its strict enforce- ment, might be seen rusking through the streets with demijobns and jugs, to ‘procure a yuantum su /’. of the soon to be proscribed luxury. The rich stored their cellars with wines and other expensive liquors—the poorer classes invested their eurplus cash in cheaper kinds of fluid. At one store, which has hitherte supplied the “upper ten’’ with beverage, the rush was so great as, although with double the usual force, to almozt entirely prevent their attending to other branches of their business Wagons, drays, hand carts, and all the numerous means of transportation, were in requisition, and yet were insufficient to keep pace with the demand. When friends and acquaintances met in thestreets, the first and only inguicy was—‘‘ Have you laid in a supply of liquor?” “Interest, in all matters— religious, moral, and political—was lost in this all absorbing idea. Providence seemed te have run iquor mad.

The best triends of temperance in this State, look upont his movement as most destructive anddemoral- izinginits tendency. It cannot last; and during its brief existence it will make more drunkards, aye, ten times the number it will save. The actual operation of the law is thus for some- time deferred. True, liquor will not be sold; but there will be no demand for it. Nearly every one is supplied, and until this supply is exhausted the law will not be felt. . When, however, the demand again arises, the seen of the law will be tested, and it will ve seen whether it can be sustained and enforced in large communities as effectually as it has been in Maine. Of one thing there can be no dispute—the quanti- ty of ardent spirits and intoxicating liquors con- sumed, will, for the present, be greatly increased. Should anything worthy of note occur, I will write you again. Fiat justitia ruat colam. as Jacos Farrnre.. Our Texas Correspondence. / Fonrr Mexrini, Texas, June 21, 1852.

At the conclusion of the American Revolution, numbers ef thore persone who produced this delu- sion pong refuge in the colonies that remained attached to the parent State, obtained extensive tracts of land, filed all the public offices, and had the ear ef every Governor who was subsequently rent from England, and whom, severally: speaking, bg ge in moulding to their purpose. ie state of things naturally produced much dis- satisfaction in the colonies, ‘ume, ultimately, atter the accession of the whige to power, some en OF twenty years since, they succeeded in procuring from the mother country the establishment of a more popular and independent form of government, and in niaeing: that power which the (iovernors hitherto exercised in the hands of his advisers, who, under the new constitution, are responsible to the people, and who must resign office when they cease to retain publie contidence. is change wae steadily and strictly orpones by the old conservative party, as being fatal to their intererte; and no sooner has 2 tery gevernment been reinstated in England, than we find them again at their old work, and the Colonial Secre- tary sialsing +0 a certain extent to this pernicious influence. ‘ie has been manifested by his advising the Queen to suspend giving her assent to the ap- pointment of Mr. Henry ae Queen’s counsel, who is & ere member of the Assembly and ofthe bar, because it did net meet with tho approval of the Chief Justice and Master of tho Rolls, although he admits that their chjections, on the ground of seniority chiefly, are not well founded. Mr. Henry is » Roman Catholic, and a gentleman of ability. and the provincial government will, doubtless, insiss upon his appointment being ea! firmed. a it ought to be. emanating, as it doe: a » from the fitness for the offioe the members of the local go- vernment are the best judges The action of the British ministry, with reference nstruction of a line between Halifax and isa case in pomt. Their predecessors had guarantee a loan of £7,000,000 sterling to eflect this object; and Lord Stanley, before his ac- cession to power, had given the measure his unqua- lified support. But tho enterprise has hitherto met with the strenuous opposition of the colonial tory party everywhere, and there islittle doubt that their influence has revived at the Colonial Office, and been exercised in the presentinstanee. Accordingly, we find that the assistance of the British govern- ment is to be withheld, on the ground that the line which was contemplated had been abandoned. As the colonies are differently situated from the United States, where the Supreme Court ee cide that a law of Congresg, or of either of the int vidual States, is unconstitutional, and shall not be entorced, the exercfse of a controlling power by the sovereign of the empire, who is surrounded by able advisers, may, and undoubtedly will, in extremo eases, have a tendency to prevent wild and ineon- siderate legielation, for which it provides a similar ihe ueh is the fact with reference to the bill recently passed by the Legislature of New Bruns- wick--a second edition of the Mainelaw—prohibit- ing the manufacture, importation, and sale, in that province, of all intoxicating liquors for general use, which her Majesty has been aAviaed to disallow, on the ground that ‘it is incompatible with British freedom.” With reference to the protection that is about to be extended to the fisheries-—which J find alluded to in the Heratp--the determination of the British overnment to take the affair into its own hands, instead of leaving it to the colonial governments to act independently—I consider the best assurance is thus afforded that the peaceful relations of the two countries will not be jeopardized by any movements in that quarter. The American fishermen, as has been remarked, frequent the fishing stations in at force and numbers, and might take it into their heads to resist a small colonial armed vessel, whose commander might not always display that prudence and forbearance so necessary in the dis- charge of an invidious duty: whereas naval officers, unswayed by prejudice, would be acting under spe- cific orders from the home government, and would command a degree of deference and respect which would not be accorded to the others. The establishment of a line of steamers between New York and Quebec, to call at this and other ports on the coast, will, I aim satistied, not only be a profitable investment, but will add much to the pleasure and diversity of American travelling, as the tourist of the United States, after visiting the Falls of Niagara, Quebec, and the noble Saguenay, below that place, can return by this steamer, and enjoy a delightful sail in the expanded river and Gultof St. Lawrence.

Ii the United States, exalted heads of his kind can di no harm; but here they may be considered, wit! much reasen, like animals attacked with th hydrophobie, who must be closely imprisoned or destroyed, for fear of thoir poisonous bites. M Cabet has written a letter to his ‘dear brethren o: France,” announcing that he is going “ penarey to establish a republic in the desert land of the river. Good! This is no doubt for Paris, now days, vox clamuns in deserte—for a0 one will follo him there. They have been caught here sever: times by this deceitful bait. Several correspondents of the Belgian papers hav. apnounced that the Prinee President hes decided go to Algiers after he has completed his projeete: uouraay to the southern departments of France. where he would take the command of an expeditio: ner the Algerines of the desert. It is elso sai that this project receives the utmost opposition fre: his ministers and friends. J cannot say if Louis Na. poleon will go to Algiers, bus Lam quite certain] that the Kabyles have made a general prise d’armes,] and called all their friends of the neighboring tribes to help them, in the name of the Pro. phet. All the castern provinces of Algeria have} raised the standard of revolt against France, an it is feared that the troops which are now in the provinte of Constantine and Bone will not have suf- ticient power to suppress the revolt. The comman- der of that part of the French colony has demanded] a supply of 10,000 men. Unfortunately, there are! many soldiers now engaged in the expedition against] the rebels of the desert; and it is deemed necessary, to send new troops from France there. Muny bat- tles have siready been fought; aud though a great] number have been won by the French, in several parts ofthe country, the army of France is kept in check by the Kabyles, whose forces are in greater strength. It is feared that the Arab leaders in th cities have made a plot with the Kabyles, and that} when the troops abandon their barracks they will murder the inhabitants.
