Nova Scoti A good deal may be said on both sides of the question; and certainly Mr. Webster is pushing for- ward the Yankee side of the argument with very considerable vigor. Now, it strikes us that there is a manifest destiny marked out for those Northern | colonies of England—the ultimate destiny of absorp- tion into this great and glorious confederacy, which has expanded, and is expanding, and must go on expanding in its prosperity, power, and ter- ritorial absorptions, till its mission is fulfilled. In this view it would be wise for the British govern- ment to take hold of such comprehensive measures as the tendencies ofthe times clearly indicate to be the best conrse to pursue. Let her, then, take that lin® of policy which, the most quietly, and with the least trouble, will at an early day secure the annexation of the Canadas, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, fisheries, and islands, and all, to these United States. At the same time let the British go- vernment co-operate with ours in obtaining the as- sent of Spain and of France to the recognition of the independence of Cuba and Porto Rico, with o view to their speedy incorporation into this Union, asa balance of power to the suggested acquisitions in tbe North. Another slave State or two from Texas, would fill up any Southern deficiency requir- ed to restore the equilibrium in the United States the South a breakwater against the surges of North- ern abolition agitation. Let England and our government unite in some such vast and comprehensive policy as this, and the rapid ineresse of the commercial traffic between English manufucturersand North American consumers will soon pay John Bull ten times over for all tho doubt- ful advantages and certain losses of her North American colonies. Their resources would be de- veloped, and the immense wants 0 a newand active population, thrown into those regions, would call for an immense supply of British manufactures, and thus open a largely increased and steadily increasing field of action for British commerce, as well ag our own, What say the high contracting parties to this? Is it not better than huckstering between codfish and reciprocity ? Wuo 18 10 BE Prestpent ?—This is the all ab- sorbing question of the day. What are the pros- pects of General Seott!—what are the chances of General Pierce?—what, in short, are the prospects of the general result, one way or the other? Let us look on both sides of affairs, as thoy stand. That is the only method of arriving at any fair conclu- sion. A remarkable feature in this canvass is, that the mere® personal merits of General Scott and General Pierce are of very little moment. They are scarcely cf greater importance in the issue than the reckless slang and slanders of partisan journal; against both candidates, in denouncing thom as cowards, or drunkards, or as villains of the deepest dye, guilty of most, if not all, the offences of the penitentiary calendar. Who cares for the seur- rilous, libetlous, and reckless personal abuse of such unprincipled party tools as the New York Tribune, ihe Boston Atlas, the Philadelphia Pennsylva- nian, the Louisville Journal, and the Richmond Whig? We must look beyond such trash, to the actuay present posidion of the two parties before the coun. try. Here we have something like a clue to the re- sult in November. We find the whig party crippled, dislocated, divided, eut up, and full of mutiny, on every side—broken in the back-bone, by the deadly weight of abolitionism avd the higherlaw. On the other hand, we find the democratic party united— never more united—on their whole Baltimore ticket, form and sll; and it is manifest they will g uptheir solid strength to the polls. Then, ogain, the Pittsburg Convention will take off to that | third ticket the pure abolition, free soil, free farm, free rent, woman’s rights, and direct intervention and we apprehend, from the unfortunate connection of all this sort of stuf! and rubbish with the whig party heretofore, that Gen. Scott will be the loser by this movement, especially in Massachu+ | setts, New York, and 0. Looking at this whole state of thi the impartial reader will be able to make bis own dedu as to the probable resal; ofthe election. To say the least of it, the prospect i at last, inpowder—and thera b party is disma) enough for Gen. Seo appearto be stronger than the whole DieRervTaBLE Party Jovrxa ournalism of the dey, both whig and democrat, is | getting up the steam amazingly. Some of the rnals seem determined not to be out- u—The party the w journals in vituperation aac e They accordingly ave beginning to pub- dences of fucts and oceurrences showing that veral Scott, during his brilliant career asa mili- not only committed errors and blun- tary man, he ders, but has also been guilty of the crimes of theft, ation, and meny other minor The whigj | sedition, ineubord | peecadiloes besid | business by accusing General Pier | sottishness, poliroouery, and abolitionism; but thoy have not yet gone so far ast te to him theft, litior, insubordination, or burglary.

Here we have yet three | months to elapee before the N ber clectior | and ere that day arrives, we suppose General Scott and General Pierce, who were considered by the | two conventions which nominated hom, as well as by the great masses of both parties, as the two host and most available men in the country, will have heen proved to b» two ofthe greatest raseals— greatest Vagabonds—greatest poltroons, and great- ect ecoundrele, that ever existed ia this or any othor country. What a shame to the newspaper press of this republic ! and what ashame to the American perple, to allow such journals to exist at all! Thus far, the following are the names of the journals who have more particularly distinguished themselves in this disgraceful way :— Wing JOURNALA, inna na bal ng atiahy age Pinaseiehte Pennsylvanian Philadelphia N. American, Baltimore Argas, Baltimore Patriot, Boston Post. Hichmond Whig, Louisville Journal —and a whole lot of dirty smali newspapers, all over the country, who echo the scurrility practised by the above. vou | Waste or Croton Water.—We would call the attention ef the Collector to the waste of the Croton water at some of the public stores, and also of some of our principal hotel keepers on Brondway— such #8 Delmonico's, the Astor House, and the Ir- ving House—to the an system of reducing the | dust on the sidewalks to athin pulp, (very disagree- able, if pot dangerous, to pedestrians.) by Croton | water The water, at thie soacon, is wanted for use- ful purposes; but if silewalke are to be watered | every morning, let it be done as in Philadelphia, with ascrubbing broom, making the payewont a8 Senate between the two sections, thus preserving to | Great Britain and our owM revolution in the sentiments of his constituency of Others believe that the whole thing the Tower Hamlets of London. as to his fitness to is a fish story, and thatthe panie has been gotupby represent them in the British Parliament. Bat it the English colonies to farther their grand project seems that they have had this result. Copies of the of free trade between the United States and her | Hexaxp containing these expositions, were sent by Britannic Majesty’s North American provinces of — geyeral English geutlemen here, to the Tower Ham- the Canadas, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, and | lots, and they have had such an effect on his con- stituents that at the recent general clection they rejected him. This shows that if English papers do exercise an influence over elections in this country, American journals reciprocate the favor, and exert a similar degree of influence over the English etec- tions. We have received the following note on the subjcet of Mr. George Thompson’s defeat:— Wasuinaton, July 21 1852, Dean Sin—I am informed. by an English gentleman here, that Thomp:on the English abolitionist and incen- diary, either hus been or is certain to be defeated in his election tor the Tower Hamlets; principally through the infivence the New Yorx Henavo bad in exposing his conduct in this country. The gentleman woo informed me himeelf sent. many copies of the Hexaup to his con- flituents, with that object, and the Engtish local papers copied the articles. We are very glad that Thompson, the impudent, ignorant agitator, hus received this very appropriate rebuke for his violent inflammatory career in this country, for he was possessed of the most invete- rate hatred towards the American Union and insti- | tutions that has been entertained by any English- | man who has been here for many years back. fu deed, it is a singular fact that all the English democrats of the same complexion as Thompson, are remarkable for their ignorance, impudence, intole- ance, and thorough hatred ef this country—really, because it is advancing in greatness every day, but | profestedly, as they say, because it holds black slaves in the Southera States. The truth is, that among the whole English people, the greatest amount of vindictive and violent hatred of the American republic is to be found among the radi- cals They are more insolent and overbearing to- wards everything American than even the high nobility are. They are a species ef British sogial- ists, and are just as wildin their notions as the socialists of the Continent, or as those of this coun- try, ewapating from Brook Farm—a set of fanatics, who are impudent, overbearing, and tyrannical, in all their ideas, and who want to inflict their ridicu- lous notions on the whole community. Tanirr CHARLATANISMS.—The worst samt of a tariff system is that which is constantly changing. It keeps inland trade and business, and foreign com- » in constant disorder and con! nm. The be tariff system is that which, being proved by exp ence, is permitted to be permanent. The sc List and “ higher law” organs, however, have their own ideas upon this subject; and they are in keeping with their opinions on the Rochester knocking Fourieriem, bran bread philosophy, and other di organizing absurdit! it is not a high tariff, ¢ they are go zealously and usclessly preaching, that is wanted to give proper encouragement to home manufactures. No matter how high the tariff may be raised, the present inflated and still inflating paper money system will enable the foreign manu- facturer to fiood the market with his goods. He will be satisfied with small profits; and while he carrics off our specie in payment, our own manuf. turers, in the end, will find their paper trash as worth- lesa, in many cases, as Plainfield or Havre do Grace shinplaste The result ofa high tariff would be to inflate the existing paper currency to the exploding yoint, and in the collapse we should experi again the horrible and rascally explosion and ba: ruptey of 1836-"7-"8-"9-"40 and “41. No--if Mr. Senator James wishes to place tho manufneturing Interests of the country upon 2 mor? solid basis, it cannot be done by raising the tariff from the average of 0 per cent, ad valorem, to ¢ or 75 per cent specific duties The expedient woul introduce derangement and confusion, without any other than a most delusive benefit Tho mis is in our rag money system—such, for examp the free banking system of this State, based upon public stocks.
