PROPHECY FULFILLED.

Host remarkable fulfilment of the pre-
liction contained in the following ex-
ract from his writings, in reference to
foreign element in our Government.
J^httjtokingly true is it, that most of the
among us have either retained
and cherished their monarchical predi
lections, or run into the other extreme
of Jacobinical “Red Republicanism•”
How faithful is the picture of the “ hete^
rogeneous, incoherent, distracted”
character of our legislation, which is
daily growing worse, and will continue
todoso until thoroughly Americanized.
We would call the special attention of
Democratic editors, office-holders and
office-seekers to the following extract
from the writings of the “ Sage of Mon-
ticello.” It is pertinent and pointed
They surely will not denounce him as a
‘‘Federalist,” and yet he was evidently-
writing for the Know-Nothings :
“ Civil government being the sole ob
ject of forming societies, its adminis'ra-
tion must be conducted by common con
sent —every species of government has
its specific principles. Ours, perhaps,
are more peculiar than those of any other
in the universe. !t is a composition of
the freest principles of the English Con
stitution, with others derived from natu-
ral reason. To the?e nothing can be
more opposed than the maxims of abso
lute monarchies. Yet, from such, we
are to expect the greatest number of
emigrants. They will bring with them
the principles of (lie governments they
leave, imbibed in (heir early youth; or,
if able to throw them off, it will be in
exchange, tor an unbounded licentious
ness, passing, as is usual, from one ex
treme to another. It would he a miracle
were they to stop precisely at ‘he point
of temperate liberty. These principles,
with their language, they will transmit
to their children. In proportion to their
numbers they will share with us the
legislation. They will infuse into it their
spirit,'warp and bias its direction, and

OF THE “SOUTHERN WATCHMAN:'
STARTLING FROM EUROPE CONGRESS
CITY NEWS—MARKETS—FINANCIALS,
ETC., ETC.
NEW-YORK, Thursday. Dec. 22,)
11 o’clock, A. M. J
My private letters by the America
contain startling hints as to the future
of Europe. In England, in spite of the
clamors of the War party, in spite of the
immense pressure of popular opinion
brought to bear in favor of the war, in
spite of the police tearing down the
placards of Mr. Bright, and the Man
chester folks burning him in effigy, and
“Punch” consuming a ream of jest and
sarcasm upon the absurdity and con
structive treason of any opposition to
the Russian War, ‘‘for all that and for
all these,” says my London correspon
dent, “there is a Peace party in Great
Britain, clogging all the ministerial
movements, braking even the parlia
mentary cars, and making itself felt
upon the very throne. This party seems
to be increasing in strength, as well it
may. Considering the enormous cost
of one year’s strife, and the exceedingly
small and unprofitable results—looking,
too, at the constitutional irritability of
the English,and still more, of the Freuch
temperameut—and not overlooking the
humanitarian progress of the age, which
has inculcated peace sentiments, and a
horror of war in every Sabbath school
and religious association in Great Bri
tain, it would be wonderful if there
were not a respectable Peace party in
that tax-ridden land.
‘•By the way, what a similar bit of
history it would make for futurity, to
read that the two kingdoms of Great
Britain and France, having connived
through their ministers to accomplish a
great war, were compelled by the Chris
tian sentiment at home to forego their
effoits, and abandon the enterprise
with disgrace.” Thus suggests my Lon
don friend, and the thought is as novel
as it is striking.
My private correspondence from
Paris is desponding in its tenor. War
taxes and war drafts for recruits are
pressing heavily upon the nation, and
threatening a return of the old conscript
days of the elder Napoleon, when ham
lets were swept of their male population,
and ploughs were drawn by women.
The name of Russia is ominous to
Frenchman, as we may well suppose,
and the war has never been popular
from the firs*. A post-script, acknowl
edging receipt of a recent letter of mine,
will enlighten your country readers, as
to postal surveillance in Franee: ‘Yout
of the 16th ult. came to me open, with
your neat seal of the torn off. Use
plain wafers hereafter for any thing
with that device.”
The report prevails at Washington
Ithat the French and British Minister
have remonstrated against the annexa^
Ition of the Sandwich Islands, as in con
jtiravention with their treaties with the
.native government.
for the relief of the children and heirs of
Maj. Gen. Baron De Kalb, appropria
ting S66,000 for that purpose. It is to
be hoped that this long-deferred act of
justice will not halt in the Senate, or fail
in the White House. Their three
weeks’ work may he summed up in the
election of a Chaplain and the passage
of a Bill for the better preservation of
life and pioperty on the coasts of New
Jersey and Long Island, the latter by a
vote of 126 to 41.’
City news is flat. The scarcity of
money|restrains travel to a degree fright
ful to hotel-keepers and transportation
companies. Our principal hotels here
seem like ‘banquet halls deserted.’—
About gong-time there is a little attempt
at a rush, and for a few minutes, one is
reminded of the days when the charge
upon the dinner-table was like a bril
liant cavalry attack; but it is soon over,
and a glance along the line of empty
seats at the tables teveals the wide,
wide difference.
Markets here are still greatly depres
sed, and but little promise of improve
ment.
The provision trade shows but little
change for a week past. Vegetables
are scarce, and dear in the extreme.—
Butter and cheese have fallen, the for
mer to 19 at 23, the latter 10 at 23.—
Beef at retail :s 6 to 18, according to
choice. Turkeys, per lb., 1C at 12.—
Chickens, per pair, 50 at 150. These
are the Washington Market rates, the
cheapest market in the city.
The Money Market has been slightly
improving for ten days past. No new
Bank failures are announced, and no un
favorable rumors in relation to New
York hanks are afloat. Knick.
