A traveller had been ar- rested at Sovendria, for having in his possession a Beditious address against the Sultan. The despat:hes that now find their way to the papers from the Prin- cipalities, are as studiously indicative of peace as ahey formerly were of war. to kee; ee that fervor, poets ‘The le du Nord, of St. which I believe en, note have mn carefully excluded. ‘Such as it is, this draught was not willingly accepted by the Emperor Nicholas, though he ‘submitted to it out of deference to the opinion of the allies and from an apparent desire to escape from the embar- rassments of his isolated and aggressive position. It will be remembered that the intelligence that the note had been ay a at St. Petersburg was re- ceived throughout Europe with universal satisfaction, as a thing more to be desired than expected. After all this, which certainly amounted to an abatement, if not a surrender of the Russian pretensions, the note is sent back with further alterations; and with alter- ations not originating with the conference at Vienna, but with the Turkish government. To yielda second time to this sort of appeal, especially after the in- flated and menacing language the Emperor had assumed a few weeks before, isa defeat amounting to humiliation; and, although the Russian govern- ment has brought these evils upon itselr, it is by no means clear that a sovereign in the position of the Emperor Nicholas is prepared to endure such a. re- sult. Grave doubts may therefore be entertsined as to the acceptance of these terms at St. Petersburg in their altered form; thangh we trust that a more ma- ture consideration of the whole question has, ere this, brought the Emperor of Russia toa just sense of what is due, if not to Turkey, to the general interests of Europe. On the other hand, there are some strong practical arguments in favor of the acceptance of the terms | and the restoration of peace. The season is already | too far advanced for the Russian army to undertake | any operations beyond the Danube with the least | respect of decisive success; and the position of the ‘Turkish forces under Omar Pasha is such as to ren- | der any advance whatever an undertaking of great | risk and danger. But the prospect of a prolonged Russian oes ot the Principalities, even if Ku- rope could submit to it, is not much less unfavorable. The troops have already suffered to a prodigious ex- tent from the climate. The price of provisions in Bucbarest has quintupled, and the military hospitals are encumbered with the sick. In a few weeks the rains will have converted the country for the most part into a pathless swamp, and it will become | equally difficult to withdraw the army aad to keep up the necetsary supplies, for the stores of the country are already exhausted. At this time of the year and with the Danube between the two camps, neither the Russian nor the Turkish army could attack its antagonist with effect. It may be doubt- ed whether there is any military advantage in the | occupation of such a position, and the Russian Generals are said to have given evident indica- tions of a desire to withdraw from their miserable | cantonments. The occupation of the Principalities | has failed to subdue the resistance of Turkey ; it | has, on the contrary, roused her to more energetic | efforts. It has irritated Europe by a breach of trea- ty, and it has placed Russia in a position which she cannot hold without immense sacrifices of every kind. The acceptance of the note is the ouly way by which the Emperor Nicholas can extricate him- self from this position, for the events of the last three months have given him no additional claim to dictate conditions beyond his trontier. The evacu- ation of the Principalities ought to be the first step in the arrangement, and that alone can relieve the combined fleets from the necessity of passing the winter near the scene of these occurrences. ie jection of the terms and the refusal to evacuate would, on the contrary, probably be followed by a declaration of war or some violent ebullition at Con- stantinople; and, as the war party in the Divan would then gain the upper hand, having already | frastrated the conditions of peace tendered to the | Sultan by Europe, they must be repared to abide by the consequences of their violence, while the governments which have hitherto supported them would be entirely at liberty to deal as they might think fit with this altered state of affairs.

THE VIENNA NEGOPIATIONS—PEACE AND WAR PRO- BABILITIES. [From the London Times, Sent. 6.] t is perfectly true that since the Turkish govern- ment has made its acceptance of the note proposed by the conterence at Vienna to depend on the adop- | fon of certain changes in the text of that document, Zhe question which has kept Europe in suspense for 0 many months, and which appeared to be approach: ‘ing a termination, is still a matter of serious doubt gad unabated apprehension. Bat it is not true that @he subject i at this time enveloped in great mys- ery and reserve, for, on the contrary, the game is | being & played: as the French say, cartes sur table. The of the conference and the alterations quired by the Divan, are before the world, and have Been variously discussed by the organs of public | pinion, a6 well as by statesmen and cabinets in every part of Europe. Everybody knows what Bhose terms are which have been transmitted fo St. Peersourg, and that the four courts have strongiy urged the Emperor Nicholas to finish is tedious and dangerous negotiation by accepting them. Whether he will accept them or not is ertirely a matter of opinion, and the reasons ‘On both sides are so aearly balanced that we do not | Buppose any politician, be he minister or journalist, | ‘would undertake to express a confident expectation on the one side or on the other. But on that deci- | Bion, whatever it be rests the whole question, the fate of Turkey, and possible the peace of Europe. | Although, therefore, we are now in possession of the mate! for thix discussion, we must be content to | ‘wait for the positive result; and in the meantime the | question continues to excite as much anxietyand un- wertainty as it has ever done since the month of April. “Under these circumstances the leading mem- bers of the cabinet who are concerned in the direc- fion of our foreign relations have not left town for a fingle day, and there cannot be stronger proof of the | folire unanimity prevailing in the ministry on these questions than the fact, that at this important con- jancture Lord John Russell and Lord Palmeraton ave returned to London to hold closer communica- dion with Lord Clarendon and Lord Aberdeen, At- fempta to sow division in the ministry and to shike the confidence of the country were never, in fact, | amore entirely out of place. From the moment that the alterations and ad ti fional conditions required by the Turkish govern- Suent became known, we deplored the delay and the @anger which those changes were likely to occa- | ion. For, even if it were demonstrated that the | giterations are uno sxjectionable, and even desirable fin themselves, we should hold that the value of Bheso modified expressions is incomparably below shat of a prompt settlement of the dispute. It is Mnotorious that these changes were put forward by a @party in the Divan who are not favorable to any di- oo, settlement, but are still eager for an appeal arms ; and, if the opposition they have offered to he terms of agreement should lead to its rejection fy the other side, the violent faction at the Porte ‘will prevail over the more pradent and judicions ad- visers of the Sultan. The Por itself, which began by throwing its cause into the hands of its allies, ‘when it had taken the firm resolution to reject Prince Menschikoff's demands, and which obtained for several months the united support of Europe on | Ghese conditions, wil have destroyed the union of | §ta own policy with that of the mediating Powers; | nnd we have reason to believe that the French Cabi- | net has already signified to the Sultan that the ulte | rior steps he may adopt contrary to the advice of his Bilies, must be taken @# his own peril. é Upon the immediate subject of the test in- Qerest at the prevent moment the acceptance or re- of the alterations oy the Emperor of Rassia, are redaced to mere conjecture, amd each of our eaders will form his own — whether, ander @ll the circumstances of the cage, the Emperor Ni- ce olas will be most actuated on this occasion by 1 os of ambition au passion, or by the rales of | Watch the movements of the American | der orders for that destination, consists of the Pallas, nd the desire of peace.

The editor of the Friend of China bad an invitation to go on board the Pallas, and | gives some interesting particulars relative to that fine vessel and the Russian naval service. “She was | built at St. Petersburg in 1838, and, as a specimen of her sailing qualities, made the passage from the Cape of Good Hope to Java Head in thirty-two days. Her armament is composed of four 68-pound- ers and forty-eight 24-pounders, with a beautiful stand of the be invented rifles, carrying at blank 4 int range a distance of four hundred paces. Jer crew numbers altogether four hundred, ia- cluding a brass band of twenty. There are no marines; indeed, every seaman is enlisted in Rossia, and bas to do military as well as naval duty, if required of him. The period of service is in some instances eighteen years, in others twenty-two years, at the expiration of which they retire on a pension; but at any time during the five years afterwards they are liable to be called on to do duty, should an emergency arise. For this eervice they re- ceive, besides food and gn g an annual payment, the average rate of which will astonish the seamen | of other navies—one guinea per annum. For foreign | service, two guineas. Of course everything is found them; and, according to their appearance, they do not want for food orclothing. Besides this the fami- lies of those who are married are maintained in bar- | racks, for every son an extra ration being allowed, (for daughters none,) on the express condition, how- ever, that when of sufficient age—say sixteen years— the male youth does duty as a seaman or soldier. (The soldier's period of service is, for cavalry, ten years; infantry, fifteen years.) Children born during ike five years after service are totally exempt. A | guinea per annum we have mentioned as the average rate of pay. There are, however, several classes of | searoen—Ist, helmsmen; 2d, ye 3d, able seamen, and then ordinaries, as in the English navy, with va- rious grades of petty officers, as boatswain and their mates. Among the list of principal officers to be found below it will be seen that there is no paymaster or pur- ser. The duty devolving on that offiver in an foglish ship in the Russian navy is attended to by one of the lieutenants, the actual working of the business being done by cflicers of the second grade. The following are the officers of his Imperial Majesty's ship Pallas:— Vice Admiral Patiatin, Post Captain Unkofski, Flag Cap- tain Possiet, Admiral’s Secretary Goncharoff, Secre- tary of Legation Goschkavitch, Chaplain (Archi- mandrite) Awvakoom, First Lieutenant Tihmanoff, Second Lieutenant the Baron Crudner (aide-de camp to his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Constan- tine), Third Lieutenant Saevich, Fourth Lieatenant Balevinetz, Fifth Lieutenant Schwartz ; First Sur- eon Arefieff ; First Master Gallezoff, Secoud Master orfoff, Gunner Lasseff. There are three passed midshipmen, four midshipmen, and one naval cadet, the last mentioned a son of Admiral Lazereff, who commanded one of the Russian ships-of-the-line at Navarino, and who at his death was commodore of the Russian squadron in the Black Sea.

From I'rance we have nothiog more important than the fiuctuating accounts of the grain markets. Numerous vessels had arrived at Marseilles with wheat from Odessa. These advices were of 3lst ult. The price of wheat had fallen considerably at Rouen and Lille, and likewise at Villeneuve, Astaffori, Mar- mande, and Moissac, in the Lot and Garonne. A letter from Paris says that the government is seriously occupied in considering ‘all the regulations referring to the sale of bread in Paris. The present system ‘taining a store of flour in warehouses, as aupply Yor the inhabitants in case of scarcity, is condemned as defective, notwithstanding the enor- mous expense it entails. The supply at present in the granaries of Paris is not more than sufficient for twenty-seven days comsumption. Iwo plans have been meconed, and are at preseat under considera- tion. ¢ first recommends a more strict monopoly in the sale of bread, by limiting the numberof bakers, and compelling them to deposit a sam as security, which sum shall be employed to purchase flour when the price is low, and the flour thus purchased shall be taken charge of by the municipal councilof Paris. The other plan proposes to remove all restrictions from the trade, and to do away with the monopoly which at present limits the numoer of butchersand bakers. In this latter case a maximum price is to be fixed for the four pen loaf, but with permission to sell it as much below that price asthey like. The Emperor is understood to incline to the free trade lan. 2 Later accounts from the grain markets, received at Paris on the 5th inst., announced that there had been large arrivals of English and American breadstuffs at Havre, and prices had consequently declined oy two francs per barrel At Marseilles, where prices had fallen in consequence of the increased supply, qnotations were again looking up. The Bordeaux markets were quiet, and at Nantee there had been a decline of from fifty centimes to one franc per hecto- litre. At Strasburg the market was quiet, The Hat ae was to leave Dieppe for Boulogne on the 6th itst.

Despatches from Odessa, August 19th, state that business was brisk and prices still looking up. Corn continued in demand for Italy and France, and there were large arrivals of grain from Ghourka. From Galatz, August 23d, it was reported that 120 vessels, laden with corn, were at Sulina, unable to get to sea; several, having been detained four months for want of lighters, had their cargoes heated. 400 vessels were outside the bar. From St. Petersburg the com- mercial accounts were unchanged. Some consider- able supplies of tallow had been detained in the in- terior, which had hardened the London market. The report that the export of grain from Wallachia was prohibited is not correct. Onessa, August, 19, 1853, Business in our markets is brisk, and prices are still looking up. Corn is continually in demand for Italy and France, and there are large arrivals of grain from Ghourka. Prussia, THE HARVEST AND GRAIN TRADE IN PRUOSSIA— CLOSING OF THE CUSTOMS SESSIONS. From Berlin, August 30th, it was affirmed that, de- pencing on its own resources alone, there was no ap- prehension of scarcity in Prussia, although the har- vest had been but indifferent. A destructive fire had happened at Lubec. The Customs Conference had closed its discussion, having made but an insignificant change in the tariff. The Cassel Gazette offirme that commercial negotia- tions have been resumed between France and the Zo)lvorcins ~~ — erman papers say that the Prussian government bad concluded not to interfere in the grain trade by any legal enactment. int Greece.

THE LOMBARDS AND THEIR IMPOSTS—A FUNERAL DEMONSTRATION AT GENOA—AFF AIRS IN THE RO- MAX STATES, SOCIAL AND POLITICAL, ETC. Some slight modifications have been made in the state of siege of Milan. An additional impost on di- rect taxes had been decreed, to cover the deficienc; in the revenue of 1852 and 1853. The decree signed by Strasoldo, Austrian Lieutenant. The funeral of Barthelemi Bottaro, a democratic priest, at Genoa, had been made the occasion of a grand political demonstration. His’ body was at- tended to the tomb by as great a concourse as that which followed the remains of the mother of Maz- zini. Bottaro bad been censured by the Holy Con- gregation at Rome for his “ political pslams;’’ but he refused to retract his opinions, and therefore become an idol with the republican party. His death was sudden, and & post mortem ‘examination of his body showed traces of poison. An inquest into the cir- cumstances of his death had been commenced. There had been something of a panic at Tarin and Genoa, on account of the scarcity of specie, but it was over at last advices. Troops were assembling at the camp of exercise at Marengo. Eighteen thousand men will manceu- vre under the command of the Duke of Genoa. Talking of the recent projected insurrection at Rome, a letter in the Journal de Francfort, from Rome, Ang. 23, eays that Mazzini had chosen a fete day at Rome for the projected insurre:stion, as at Milan he chose the last day of the carnival. He con- jectured that on August 15—the fére of Napoleon—the French soldiers would be scattered among the wine shops, ee the féte, and that their officers would be doing the same atthe French Neg B The mode of communication between Mazzini in London and the leaders in Rome was by the very old but not ineffective pasteboard cypher—that is to say, a piece of card pierced with holes, and which, when laid on the surface of a letter, shows through the holes only certain of the words, and thereby con veys a different meaning from the Cel one. The discovery of the plot is attributed to the indiscretion of Aurelio Saffi, the triamvir, in publishing tna jour- nal of Genoa a letter of thanks to the peasants who had sheltered him. This put the police on the gut v ve,and the result was they discovered the plot. So, at least, the papers say. The Project of the Spanish Protectorate of Mexico, and the Policy of the United states, In a Spanish pulnt of view, One of the Madrid papers—El Diario Espanol, the special organ of General Concha—thus discusses the subject of the projected alliance between Spain, Mexico, and the other Spanish American republics:— [From the Diario of 234 Angust.] No European nation has greater or more varied in- crests in America than Spain; and yet no nation preoccupies itself less with what is passing in the New World. The events of those most important regions obtain among us an attention as transient as that whi sh we devote to the strifes of the Russians in the Cancasus, or those of the English in India. From whence it follows that in no country of Europe does there exist a less enlightened opinion, or one in which there is less judgment, concerning the situation of those numerous peoples who ove to us their exist- ence, and who remain united to us by indissoluble bonds of affection. In no other way can it be comprehended that, after time for reflection, there continue to be received as probable the ramors which have been given rise to by the political reaction of Mexico. represented by the dictatorship which the republic has confided to its old President, Gen. Santa Anna—those ramors spread by the North American press, and according to which tbis illustrious genera! should have solicited the protectorate of Spain, or should be in treaty with our government to establish in the ancient viceroyalty a constitutional monarchy—»oth thiogs to-day equally impossible, except on the sapposi- tion that the men who counsel the Mexican dictator in that and in our government, are devoid of good repse. Fortunately, that this want has not existed nor does exist is demonstrated by the terms in which the Minister Plenipotentiary of the republic, Don Buenaventura Vivo, expressed himself on pre- senting to her Majesty his credentials; for ia some of his expressions we sce the intention of protesting against the unfounded suppositions to which we have alluded. Discourses, as they usually are purely formular, rightly take on certain occasions a sta- diously distinct character; and in our opinion, con- tidering the present situation, the representative of Mexico has considered it opportune to fix the posi- tion of the republic 1n relation to its ancient metro polis in as clear @ manner as the conveniences of the act could permit him. “Mexico, said the minister, “has” with the nation with exactitude in these brief phrases the relations which both go- vernments should cultivate for their mutual benefit; because within these limits is the support and aid watic appears to threaten both nations through the ambi- tion of another, which asprres t» the absolute do- minion of all the New World, and which, intoxicated by the most easy triumphs, pretends to recognize no other laws nor duties than that which it ita in- variable destiny. And this is generally the reason why, obeying an imperious duty, wo have wished to consider the subject to-day rather than the interior political situation of our own country. The careless- ness with which the most important foreign hes tions are regarded, can hardly offer us any great ho) that our warnings to-day will be of use, since the most significant facts are looked at with indifference, as are even the warnings of those who. if not for our exclusive advantage, have been for some time past teaching to our country the imminency of the dan- ger. We said before that the rumors concerning the pro: tectorate and the creation of a monarchy}in Mexico have been scattered bythe North American press; to which,we may now add,belongs also the gloomy paint- ings of what they call the tyranny of the General to whose capacity and gens experience the republic has confided its re-organization; and we must explain the wherefore of these suppositions, calling to the sub- ject the attention of those who, with the greatest good faith and the most sincere desire for the com- mon good and for the security of the principles which they believe trampled on, second, perhaps innocently, the views of the sanguinary enemies of our race. It should nted an inexplicable blindness not to feel persuaded that the United States consider as a necessity of their destiny the annexation—not re- mote—of the Mexican territory; and if one were not ignorant of, or volnabarly distegardful of the conduct observed by them with their neighbors, he could not deny to himself that to the suggestions—to the con- stant work of disorganization by agents more or less authorized by the AngloSaxon confederation—is Mexico indebted to the lamentable state to which she had arrived in those very sad moments in which her cries of despair drew General Santa Anna from his foreign abode on the shores of the Magdalena. Nothing so much as anarchy favors conquest or ab- sorption to such a point that it not only facilitates them but devaturalizes them—so to speak—in ex- changing into beneficial and salutary the odious character in which otherwise the trampling upon rights and the overflowing of ambition is viewed; and it is easy tosee how much the anarchical condition of Mexico was due to those who,leaving behind themand in their own home, millions of slaves, pretend to go to plant on a foreign territory the star spangled ban- ner, under whose shadow only, according to them, the sweets of liberty can be enjoyed. The sentiment is therefore logical and natural which the reaction of Mexico his awakened in those in the United States who work with the most con- stan sy for the extension of the confederation; and no-hing is therefore more susceptible of explanation than the intrigues put in play to prevent the salu- tary effects of Gen. Santa Anna’s dictatorship. To put an end to disorder, to, reestablish the principle of authority, to reorganize the administration, and to eoy giving to the latter the dissipline and instruc- tion which constitute its true force—in fine, whatever, means could be efficacious to restore to the country the unity of sentiment and of action—the securest basis of nationality—and by all this to call to the assistance of the government and to seek among all classes of the country, as its first agents, the men most distinguished for their honor, enlightenment and patriotism—these are without doubt the grave motives for scandal, the manifest indications that Gen. Santa Anna aspires to deliver up Mexico to her ancient metropolis, or to make a league with the latter for the purpose of establishing a monarchy. The very idea of such a creation, in of the fed- eral republic, could only excite in it all the ire of the democracy; could make it believe in some Eu- ropean combination to stop the colossus in its growth; could, in fine, decide the Anglo-American government to profit by any element to excite a war in Mexico which should impede its ecyeantessioz, And here are at hand forthe purpose the contract made on the Garay grant to establish an inter- oceanic way in the isthmus of Tehuantepec, or the insane pretevsion of the government of New Mexico on the Mesilla Valley. ‘There is, nevertheless, in these ramors a lesson whvek the miok--government, avoroall others, ought to comprehend and profit by. In the midat of the unbounded ambition for whose enterprises it pretends to reckon on gigantic forces—in the midst of the haughty example with which the party of ter- ritorial extension each day treats in their periodicals all nations, and particularly such as they suppose weak—rumors like those of which we speak dis- cover to whosoever has eye to see it all the weakness of power, the real debility of the Anglo-American confederation to throw itself only into the strife where it expects to have to contend with a resiat- ance but partially organized. Notwithstanding all the noise anc ostentation with which they boast every day of their Mexican victories and their con- uests, the North Americans know very well to what Wl ey are indebted, and none know better than they, and can explain, how Gen. Scott maintained himself in Puebla with an army of only four thousand men, abandoned by the volunteers woo had completed the term of their agreement; how he passed without danger the time necessary for the arrival of reinforce- ments; how, on the other side, General Taylor saw himself no ee in Monterey; and how, in fine, notwithstanding that state of things, which in itself bespeaks the disorganization and disconcert in which Mexico found herself, still the time was long and the sacrifices great which that military step cost the American Union; and not smal! was the discontent, nor teeble the ff josition which it had succeeded in raising against the administration of Mr. Polk. For it is in those facts, and not in the prate of those who in their moments of enthusiasm give themselves the airs of lords of the universe, that the power of the eremy is to be studied in the event of foreseeing the necessity of estimatiog it; and itis here, also, that is found the explanation of certain apparent mysteries which make many among ourselves believe the will of the American people as irresistible as their most ardent demagogues are pleased to describe it, for the purpose of intimidation or of powerful attraction. It is but a short time ago that among us, in the verv press of Madrid. a certain spasm was felt because the treasury of the federal government had over its necessities a surpins of twenty millions of dollars having no standing army to maintain, the number of its vessels of war in service being reduced to the most indispensable point, aud, in fine, the esti- mate of expenses being limited to those of the ad- ministration, customs and mails, of diplomacy, of federal courts, &c., &c-—none of those being so high as not to be covered by the products of the custom houses, which certainly constitute nine-tenths of the revenue at the disposal of the general government, whilst the States and municipalities have only to cover, by meansof direct contributions and taxes, the respective wants of the geveral aad lo:al administra- tion, the interest of a large debt, tue costs of public works, &c. But, apart from this digression, which we do not consider at all inopportune, and retarning to the 1 ason which there is for us in the signification of the rumors mentioned, as an expression of real fear for the reorganization of Mexico, and particularly for the foreign aid which that country might meet, we are anew forced to call the attention of our govern- ment, a8 much to what concerns the defence of its own territory. in whose conservation is deeply in- terested that of Mexican nationality, as for that which imports all the nations of our race in the New World, if not so immediately, certainly no less threat- ened in their political existence or in interests ag dear to them, ss not long since Peru was, to whom, with unequalled impudence, they attempted to deny & property so universally recognized as that of the Lobos islands. Spain has no interest at variance with those na- tions; and if in the struggle for independence she has upheld her authority with a constancy and force proper to the national character, the mutual demonstrations of esteem which have been occasionally manifested, even with those nations with whom treaties have not yet been made, show that there has disappeared, years since, the slightest resentment, in proportion as on the other side, even the very pride of the nation which has had the glory of peopling and endowing with tneir own civilization those countries in which so many monuments gloriously record their domination. The relations of family, the identity of religion and lan- guage—everything, should make of Spaia the most sincere friend of those nation: , and the most loyal co- operator in the consolidation of their governments, and the developement of their prosperity. Spaia, therefore, stancs in the position the most advanta- geous to promote, to preserve, and to biad more closely with the Span'sh-American nations relations as intimate and cordial as those which we have shown with Mexico. a Why, then, should not Spain, ete ed the senti- ment of race, to-day more vivid than ever in all Spanish America, so act as to convert it into a com- mon benefitas the most powerful element of force for the defence of the people now threatened and of those which may be so to-morrow? It is true that come of them have not yet been recognized; but although Guatemala bas not been, nor Salvador, nor Hondures in Oentral America, nor New Granada, Peru, Bolivia, and the Arge: tine Confederation in the sonth, we have a profound conviction that the others desire that recognition, as Pery does. which has justgent to us to treat thereof a minister pleni- tails and DOOR: » treat of real- izing views of high im ‘ open the way to the complete end of the recognition of the nation- ality of these people, who, if they have not worked for it yet with the co and resolution which might} have led to immediate results, have not for that failed to show themeclves anxious to obtain it in the midst of the sad been placed by repeat almost continual internal cided to operate, no obstacle, ence, will be offered to our government to see soon united inthe most intimate relations with all to Chili, whose good understanding should serve as a gl shield to all the members of the race which is regarded with such haughty disdain by North America, and in whose bosom alienation has been, verhaps, already allowed to be introduced through an unjustifiable abandonment.

The Late Scandalous Act at Anne Hatha- ‘way’s Cottage. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LEAMINGTON SPA COURIER. My attention having been just calied to a publication im the New York HERALD, purporting to have been taken from your paper, (without date,) aating therein a most scandslous act was Rapetee wh ia Stratford upon-Avoa, in the house where Sbakspeare woved and won Ana Hath- away, on the 6th July last, by abstracting @ portion of the fly leaf of an old family Bible, and that tue act was com- mitted by three strangers, & gentleman and two Iadies, who had that day visited the dwelling. and that on the visitSra’ book the names of the last signatures were ag follows:—H. ison, late Governor of Lovisiaoa, U 8. A, and Miss Thompson. I consider it my duty to noties that publication. It is true that I visited the house re- ferred to, accomvanied by my wife and our niece, Misa Thompson, early in July last; and that my niece entered our rames in the book as stated, but it is utterly untree that the leaf of the Bible was t rn and abitracted either of the party. To those who know us, even a is totally cnnecessary, but the charge having been made in England, I deem it proper to give it an unqualiied com. traciction, and to request. as anactof justice that you will be pleased to insert this communication in your a per: H, JJHNSON, New York, Avgust 9, 1853, [From the Lemington. Spa. Courier ] We readily give insertion to the foregoing contra- diction, and express our sincere regret that a local correspondent, from whom the article complained of was received, should have been unintentionally misled uyfon the point; and also that we should have given circulation to a charge for which there is evi- dently no foundation asy the writer of the pre- ceding letter. Of the high standing of Governor Johnson and his tamily we have now before us the most poninaiery evidence: He has been upwards of thirty years in public life. He was a member of the convention that formed the Constitution of Louisiana; was several years a judge under that form of government; and has six times been elected to Congress. During all that period he has sustained the hig est character a8 an honorable man; and we cheerfully afford him the publicity of our columns te refute a charge £0 serious, and so manifestly um- founded, as that to which we publish the above un- qualified contradiction. The Cutlery Trade of Ei Our Manufactures of Export, (From the London Times. Sept. 3 ] The Cutlers’ Feast at Sheffield is one of those happy festivals that used to be observed by Get] cratt, every guild, every college in this island, the desuetude of which marks the colduess of theae latter times. They are occasions when something of a nobler spirit can be given to employments wi otherwise too easily sink to soulless ry Or sor- oe een rian econ se fie Tecognize some! f estiny wi they find themselves p! , agit were, to say the whole world with some article necessary te or enjoyment. Sheffield enjoys a pre-eminence over all other seats of the Vulcanian art, and well it be proud of the extent of its contributions to material interests of humanity. The settler who cleaves the backwood with his axe, and then turms up the virgin soil with the spade, the pick, and the plough; the scldier who protects the acquisitions of oat the nter who converts the giants of the forest into habitations for men,—these and many others depend on the craft for which Sheffield was fa- mous centuriesago. The gardener’s pruniog knife,the reaper’s sickle, the mower’s sytne, the penknife of the scholar, and the sory, of the pene, all come from the same multifarious forge. Sheffiel arms all the world for peace or fur war, and has an interest in both, though happily more in the former than the latter. A vocation so allied to the fortunes of the great spreading family of man, and so ne- cessary to the fulfilment of the mandate to “re- plenish the earth,” must have something interesti in it even to the most rugged natures The records such a trade must tell how it increased and improved its productions after tae invention of an art, the commencement of a crusade, the discovery of & continent, or the conquest of a realm On Thoradi the master cutler and his fellows met in ancient state, and reviewed their achievements and their prospects. That survey naturally, and Pe in the way ot business, comprehended events of such meg- nitude as the Sapa of the Californian and Australian gold-fields, the emancipation of trade, the opening cf China, and the peace ot Europe. These events were felt in an universal increase of manufactures, and in an amount of prosperity so greatasto try the prudence of both master and man, the former too ready to speculate in advance of his means, the latter too prone to spend bis nard earnings in animal gratifications. Hence the topies of the day, and others of a higher charaoter,— thankfulness for such unexampled prosperity, and a determination to preserve the harmony of ‘clasooa and the peace of the earth. The people of Sheffield must be vey prudent if they -are not quite intoxicated with a gush of prosperity, which, in the words of Mr. Denison, has rendered the West Riding one of the happiest fami- lies in the world. America, to quote his words, is swallowing up our exports ag fast us we can send them. Two vast regions—the one at the Antipodes, and the other on the coast of the Pa sific—have to be literally dug up, scarified, and riven down to their lowest accessible strata, by point and edge of iron for flakes of gold. Three hundred ‘millions of ingenious men are about to be added to our customers, ready to exchange their rude imple- mente, in great Ugh of wood, or wood tipped with thin plates of iron, for the more solid and retin es produce of our own iren districts. Already the exports of hardware and cutlery for the first six months of this year have been one-third more than in the corresponding period of last year. Meanwhile a qise legislature is remo every needless burden or restriction on trade, this very session bas been remarkable for the amount ef such boons. There remains a more a, consideration than all. This prosperity, these pros- pl and this emancipation, are not purchased at the cost of others, or without others sharing it, Now, for a considerable time the agriculturists, after @ brief interval of difficulty, have beea as prosper- ous as they could themselves reasonably desire, and af this moment only depend on tne favor of heaven to get in a fair harvest at more tnan fair prices. No wonder that an almost superstitious dread of reverse has invaded many minds. Perhaps it ought to do so But every man and every trade may ward off that reverse, or mitigate is evils, by timely precau- tion, and to urge this pre-aution is an object of such festivities as the Cutlers’ feast. It was but natural that some of the speakers should enter upon themes not inappropriate to the occasion, but more appropriate in the senate or op the hustings. We shall be more disposed ta remark on the relations of England and France, and other similar topics, when they are discussed in a more suitable arena. But some observations of the Master Cutler himself, who was also the Mayor, call for notice, and were most strictly appropriate to the occasion. Having alluded to a statement made by Lord Ashburton, that Sheffield was losing ground in the mauafacture of cutlery and edge tools, he admitted there might be some truth in the statement, txough he denied the abso- lute fact. The portion of truth he admitted was, that the Americans generally made their articles of the best materials, regardless of price, while ma: though not all, the manufacturers in Sheffield did not. This certainly was not an agreeable ad- mission or a flattering defence. An edge tool manu- facturer in America asks for the best steel which Sheffield can produce, anc the grand secret of Amer- ican success is not in the superiority of tne workman- ship but in the material. This is not a new com- laint. For many years it bas beea commonly said America, that if a man wants an axe on which he can depend, seeing that be has to go a long jour- ney into the woods and cannot replace a broken weapon without returning to the cities, he must not trust to an imported article. He must have one made in America for that particular purpose. We have even heard an English gentleman, who was much in bis garden, say, that he would give a guinea for a garden knife of as tough material and as shi an edge as those he had known in America, b he knew not where it was to be found. Now is the time to test, and now is the time to confute sueh statements, if they be not exactly trae. When the markets are opening in every dire :tion, and manu- facturers are multiplying with equal rapidity, itis time for Shefficld to retain it~ place as the metropo- lis of cutlers, or to siok into the emporium of shor but bad manvfsctures A few consiguments of arti- cles got up for sale, and not for use, will infallibly damage the reputation of Sheffield in Australia and ndand America— ware and Our
