It is alo more in the line of France to pro- tect ““soly places” than it is for England to do 80. France sent a tempor.ry army of occupa- ‘Aon to Rome some few years since, and it ap- pears to have become a part and pircel of the Roman constitution, for we never since heard that there was any idea of removing it. Now, | suppose that Russia is humbled, perhaps France —notwithstanding present appearances of love— would begin to assume some air; about the guardianship of the Holy Sepulcheg pick a quarrel with England, which would result in the latter been driven from the continent— Austria being previously hambled in her mili- tary prestige and embarrassed in her finances— would leave France the only Catholic power in Europe, when the Pope could very soon patch up an arrangement between Napoleon and Nicholas. Looking at the subject calmly, and remem- bering that the population of Russia has—from the time of Peter the Great, in 1689, to that of Alexander, in 1825—increased from fifteen to fifty-eight millions; that her empire has been extended towards Berlin, Paris and Vienna, over seven hundred miles, by the forcible acquisition of territory taken from other States; that she has gone five hun- dred miles towards Constantinople in the same manner, six hundred and fifty towards Stock- holm, and over one thousand miles towards Teheran, we may very reasonably be permitted to think that neither a little war, nor a short war, will prescribe her limits now. Why has she been permitted to wrest more of her do- minions from Sweden than what constitutes the kingdom of Sweden now remaining; to take from Poland a kingdom larger than the Aus- trian empire; from Turkey in Earope a greater extent of land than that which forms the king- dom of Prussia, besides robbing Persia, Turkey in Asia, and Tartary, if she can now be so easily and cheaply curbed ? Reasoning from the premises set ferth, we would not be surprised if we heard from Eu- vope either that all the “pomp and circum- stance of glorious war’ had ended even yet inthe production of some new ‘Vienna note,” a “protocol of the Four Powers,” the ac- quisition of the provinces by Russia, or of Kugland emerging from the contest with a very much diminished status of influence amongst the nations of ‘the world, a great addi- tion to the taxetionof her people, who can now only earn barely enough to subsist on, and that, as a natural consequence, each nation would j \ Property of another—perhaps hostile—~ vor | native State of Gen.

The latest despatches from the New Hamp- shire Patriot office state that Mr. Baker, the democratic candidate for Governor, is elected, by fifteen hundred majority over Mr. Bell, whig, and Elder Perkins, abolitionist. That eight democrats and four whigs have been cho- sen to the Senate, and that one hundred and fifty-four democrats and one bundred and forty- nine others are elected to the House of Re sentatives. The towns to be heard from, elected last year six democrats and one whig. The whigs contradict this despatch, and the Patriot people have more than once circulat- time in the Granite State Legislature, which meets on the first Wednesday in June. Among the number of democrats mentioned as elected, are several who are followers of John P. Hale and his abolitionist friends, and certainly twelve who believe that there is no party but the hard prophet. These men will oppose the adminis- the administration candidates for United States Senators, with as much vigor as any whigs could display. The United States Senators for New Hampshire are first balloted for in the House; they are then sent to the Senate, and confirmed or the complexion of that body. It will be seen that, as the opposition will rule the House, and the administration govern the Senate, probable that there will be no electiom of United “General Court.” At any rate it seems very certain that, on account of the trimming, dodging, cowardly, sneaking policy of the ad- ministration, there will be no election of any man who is known to be in favor of the prin- ciples contained in the Nebraska bill. Some of the “democrats” elected to the House are made of the very softest kind of dough, and they have been all sorts of things to all sorts of the State councils. ed false statements purporting to be news. But, | supposing that it is true, there will be a stormy | shell party, and that Edmund Burke is its | tration men, the administration measures, and | rejected according to | there will be difference of opinion on the | great question of the session, and f% is very | States Senators during the coming session of the | men, in order to secure to themselves a seat in | could render the passage of the treaty through the Senate certain. It is easy to see that the reason why this business is hurried up in Wash- ington, with such little regard to decorum and common fense, is beequ:e the condition of pub- lic opinion in Mexico is threatening in all quar- ters, and at all points, to bring on another revo- | lution. If we will only let Santa Anna alone for six or twelve months longer, without deplet- ing our treasury of a single dollar, that ami- ; able and distinguished individual will soon find his level in his own country, and we can have as much territory as we choose for less than half the amount. It is almost inconceivable that there should be found-in the Senate men 0 could for one moment dream of taking wenty millions out of the Treasury, to enable Santa Anna to inflict an atrocious despotism on the Mexican people. We trust that there ix some common sense still left in that body. Savincs Banks IN: Mass \cuuserts.—Bills are before the Legislature of Massachusetts for the incorporation of five cent savings banks, and two or three penny in- stitutions of a similar character, to be located im differ. > ent parts of the State. Tuuxors Liquor Law.—The law of Ilinois prohibits the sale of liquors in less quantities than one quart, but ax the statute docs not provide for enforcing the penalty for a violation of the law, it will probably become, in operative. Marine Affairs. Deranvenk or Furorgay sreameus.—The U. 8. M. steamship Arctic, Capt. Luce, bound for Liverpool. and the British screw steamship Glasgow, Capt. Craig, for Glasgow, left port yesterday. The former carries 126 passengers and $100,667 in specie on freight; the latter has 52 cabin and 90 steerage ‘passengers. The Asia, for Liverpool, leaves on Wednesday next, and the Washing- ton, for Southampton and Bremen, on Saturday. Dr. Abbott's Collection of Egyptian Antiqui- tles—-Meeting of the Committee. ‘A special meeting of the committee sppointed to con-- cert measures for the purchase of this fine collection, was held last evening at the Stuyvesant Institute. Dr. Francis was called to the chair, and Mr. Davis was appointed Secretary. ‘The Prrsipsst on taking the chair said it was unneees- | sary to refresh their memories as to the ebjectaef the present meeting. It referred to the permanent securing of Dr. Abbott's collection to the city, State, and eountry at large, to enrich them, and be conducive to the inter- ests of useful knowledge and of science. It depended upon the citizens of this great city whether this would be | the case or not. If this were not now forthwith secured it probably would be lost to this count He had, becn informed,as they had also been in all prot yhat this collection would have brought a large sum 4 but that Dr. Abbott was persuaded to bring it over the Atlantic to this country, with a view of making it an ob- ject of consideration in ancient art and useful knowledge, ‘and profitable to himself and the city. So far these pros: { ‘is bad failed. They had therefore convened again. i ioe what could be done.

THe War acarnst Turkey a Rewiciovs MOVEMENT on THE Parr or Russta.—The decla- rations of the Czar in the remarkable interview which he lately held with the London Peace -Deputation,:fally bear out .the views that we have taken .of the origin and character of the ‘movement to which Russia has committed her- self. We believe that the Emperor is entitled to.credit when.he solemnly disdains mere pro- jects of conquest and aggrandisement as the motives that prompted him to assume and per- severe in his present attitude. The natural sympathy.of Russia with her co-religionists in the East, and the inevitable antagonism that exists between the principles that she repre- sents and those of Mahomedanism, are the real | influences that have actuated her policy. The | false coloring given to that policy by the | governments and journals of Western Europe, | has involved the question in a cloud of un- | founded prejudices and misrepresentations, | whieh only the progress of events can remove. | Whaiever may have heen the impuises that | have gnided the Czar, there is one fact respect- | ing which there can be no doubt, from the re- cent admissions of the French Emperor in his speech in opening the Legislative session, and , that is, that it is a consideration of their mate- rial interests rather than any chivalrous sym- pathy for the cause of the Turks, that has arrayed the Western Powers against Russia. ‘Tur Boar» or ALDERMEN Awp THE New Cuan- | TER.—The Board is opposed to Alderman Mott's | motion for a radical revolution of the city gov- ernment and seems disposed to give the present charter a further trial. This would be very well were it not proved beyond a doubt that the charter is utterly inadequate to authorise | the sweeping of the streets or the performance of any other municipal work of necessity.
