Brituh Pres, 9 oe {from the Sootteh- American Journal, Aug. 27.) TRE PRESS IN BRITAIN AND aMBRiVA, Some of our contemporaries, during the past week, have beep emp'oy ing tacir icisure in making com; between the newspaver press of England and that America. Not without reasou they claim credit for the pew! ef this country, sud of New York in particu tar, for bavipg 10 frome respects surpassed the British journals. Tbe American newspaper is decidedly more lively and readable than its English con! ‘'y. Both ip ns origmal discussions snd in te news department it embraces far greater variety 0° interesting subjects than the ola country uewrpaper, whose ree! iy ‘seems to necessitate adherens to the regular ‘‘sews’’ of the day, in the limited sepee ia which that word was formerly un- dersiond at the 3tamo Oftice, as implying a certain kind ot tnformavon which was properiy the sudject of a gov- erpment tax.

Now there are at least a score of dailies, eome of them enjoying a large circulation. Their progress during the short time they have been in existence has been immensely greater than that of the New York dailies in the early days of the cheap system; the Manchester Examiner, tor inatance, having att in the space of a few months a circulation which it took. the New York HrkaLD more than ten years to work up to. The leading dailies in Edinburg, Glasgow, and elsewhere, are either already printes on presses by Hoe of this city, or are about to be so, the use of these printing machines being rendered necessary by their ex- tensive circalation. cheap movement has not yet had that effect in London which was naturally to be anticipated. wut the truth is that matters of this sort are vot to bs discussed as if they involved simply s question of demand and supply. Newspapers do pot succeed simply because there is room for them in the market. Real live suc- cesstul journals do not grow, they have to be made, and made not by movey merely, but by men possessed of thoge especial qualifications which are requisite for such an undertaking. Noove can understand this beter than the editor of the New York Herap, in whose coiumas this subject bas been spoken of just as if it were s mere ques- tion of political economy. Now, so far as money is con. cerned, that has been speat in consigerable abundance in attempts to start cheap daily papers in London, but theee attempts bave not been marked by avy very distinguished success, simply, #0 far as we can see, from want of brains and ideas. set of men Dave tried the business with a Dundred thoussnd do\jars, aud avother set have proposed to try it with a million, Bus the result ot these projects bas not been commensurate to the large promises mace at the outset. There was no want of money, but there was & want of the rigbt men and the right ideas, and so the Dew Class of papers in the Eoglish metropoiis have for thi Present not come to much, although amongat them are ‘two or three very respectable journals. The New York Papers have been made what they are with a great eal lees movey, but with considerably more talent and distinctiveness of cbaracter. It may almost be said that the SxraLp was commenced without capital, and the Zribune the same The 7im-s, a more recent enter- prise, and one which bad to aim at surpassing the standard Sireacy set up by its cotemporaries, did not expend mauch more than half the amount that was required to commence the London star. But these have always been. ‘What we on this side of the Atiantic call ‘live’ papers. The London dailies, generatiy, with the single exception of the Times, are, on the other hand, moribund sort of instita- tons, useful chiefly on account of their thickness, for the commercial purposes of the grocer and taliow chandler. While noticing this rubject, and with reference to the movement which has uew olessed Britain, as well as America, with a cheep press, it is just that the credit should be given where it is really due. here can be no doubt, as both countries, that James Gordon Bennett done most, perhaps as much as to give direction and de- There were cheap Hmnatp, bus ot vigorous, extort the admiration of those who differ most widely from the tens of any views that may be advocated in its columns. 20 Mr. Bennett, we believe, it is owing that oops newepapers of New tdi rot collections a and patches, or mere party organs of a provincial p Bncky To the ezample thus, through his i set at New York, it is also owing that Britain now possesses @ well developed cheap daily press; for tt was the know- ledge of what was being done at New York that stimu- Iated those who were instrumental in bringing about that change in the law which has rendered cheap Dewspapers possioie; and the New York journals have exercised no small influence in ontetons British publishers in the recent mapagement of their enterprises. (From the Evangelist, August 25, 1859.) THE LONDON RELIGIOUS PRESS. ‘We ventured last week on a comparison of the news- paper press in America with that in Eqgiand—indicating merican press. These differencee—which spring partly from the institutions of the two countries, from the difference between a world that js old and one that is new, and partly from the na- tional character and tem} ent—are yet more marked when we turn from the secular to the religious press. The latter is an American institution.

This comparison at once disci avery wide difference in the general plan on which they are conduct- ed. In tact, it would hardly be too much to say that the religious journal—as we understand it inthis country— hardly exists in England. Our idea of a religious journal is, Gret of ail, a newspaper, like any other, giving a care- ful record of the current itfe of the passing age—with thie a }, that here the world is surveyed from a Chris. tam standpoint, and human actions and events are jusged by _bigh religious principles. The London journals, on the other hand, are not reli- gious #0 much as denominational.

A There are few more intellectual or interesting men in the country then the suthor of this little volume. The advantages of which he was deprived by the early loss of his sight have been compensated for by the retentivencas of his memory, his faculty of self-concentration, his as. tonishing quickness of perception, and his nervous elo- quence. We know of no companion in whose company it | is more celightfal to pags an hour, and as an orator we | certainly bave not met many who possess in | #0 remarkable a degree the power of enchain- | ing the attention and moving the sensibilities of an | audience. There is this, also, to be said of Mr. Milburn, | that bis moral courage is equal to his intellectual abi- lities. Whilst he has independence enough to reject the | asceticism by which other members of his calling seek to establiah a character for superior piety, he never hesi- ting | tates to stigmatize and castigate the vices which really tend to demoralize society. The circumstances that led to his appointment as chaplain to Congress offer the bea’ evidence that can be afforded of the unbending integrity | of bis character. We shall let him tell the story after his own fasnion:— We left Cincinnati on the steamer Hibernia early on Friday morning, the captain mising to land us at Wheeling by Saturday night. boat was very much crowded, and among the passengers was a considerable number of Congressinen, members of both houses, on their way to the capital to take their seats. As several of them were men known to fame, whose names I had been familiar with for years, I took great interest in observing them and in listening te their conversation, when, as is often their manner in such environment, they talked for the benefit of the company. I capnotsay how much I was shocked nor how indignant I became at discovering that not a few of these representatives of the sovereign of the United States swore outrageously, plaved day and night and = ped - ox- cess. my surprise and chagrin to my {riend; but the only comfort that I received was, that this was ‘in which many of our politicians The river was low; fogs iy rived; we were yet eighty miles below W' there was no place where we could land to aj bath. At breakfast time a committee of passengers ‘waited upon me to know if I would preach to them. Never did I say yes more gladly, for never had I been #0 anxious bite my mind. A of nearly three hun- dred persons assembled at balf-past ten o'clock, and I took my stand between the ladies’ and gentlemen’s ca- bins; seated in the places of honor upon my right and left hand were most of my late objects of interest, the mem. bers of Congress. I had never before spoken under such }, bus nevertheless as woll as I much. At the close of the dis- Course proper, however, I could not resist the impulse to | a ‘ward word to the men on my right and left. ee ee ae ee wo the following effect:—‘‘I understand that you are mem- bers of the Congress of the United states, and as such you ‘are, or should be, the tatives not only of the po- litical opinions, but aiso of ihe intellectual, mora! ana re- gious condition of the people of this country.

Ia- itably that our exoeriment is a failure and our country is hastening to destruction.

The following, ot that eccentric old preacher Peter Cartwright, and General Jackeon, will be new to many of our readers:— Shortly after the battle of New Orleans a conference of Methodist preachers was betpg beld in Nashville, fonn. My old friend, Peter Cartwright, was appolated to preach in one of the churches on Sunday evening. As he rose to apnounce his text was a.ctir in the gation; be peused uotil the excitement The pestor of the church took advantage of the opportu- nity to pull the skirt of the preacher's coat and admonish him ine whisper, “Brother Cartwright, you must 00 careful how you preach to-night; General Jackson. bas justcome in” Ine loud tone wright repued, ‘ Whet do you suppose I cere for General Jackson? if ne dun't repept cf his sineand believe on the Lord Jesus Christ be ‘will die and be camped like any otber elnner”—and then proceeded with his sermon.

Turning, bis hand was grasped by the hero, who shook it beartiy, saying, ‘‘Sir, you are @ man after my own heart; if Lbed a regiment of men as brave as you, and you for the lain, I'd agree to conquer any country on earth.’ A strong friendship sprang up between these mon, in ‘whom were many points cf resemblance.
