Mr. Webster’s Speech— Continued. \ I have said my visit to Europe lost much of its pleasure by reason of the gloomy accounts from the United States, and I confess I was m ich de pressed both as to the commercial and political condition of the country. Icou'd perceive no dis position cn the part of those in power to grow wiser or better, and although I knew there was a numerous and able party opposed to them, I yet feared, that lor want of union as to measures and candidates, their efforts to bring about a change would be ineffectual. When then,off this coast, I heard of the Harrisburg Convention, and of the nomination so unanimously made —the best th 't could have been—l was again encouraged. And when I saw, notwithstanding the pre ferences of some were disappointed, that the nom ination vv s received with unanimity, which has since swelled into enthusiasm, I felt once more that the country was likely to be extricated from her difficulties, and restored to wonted prosperity. I will say a few words on the Suo-Trcasury. This appears to me a scheme new to our history, and foreign to our habits ; the last of a scries of baffled experiments ; an expeiimcnt into which the representatives of the people seem to me to have been lashed by Executive power; fatigued into by appliances and importunities, through four mortal sessions of Congress. What are the a., gu ments in fs vor of the bill? The leading one of Mr. Van Buren, in 1837, was the safety of the public funds. The Treasure was to be kept where rogues should not run away with it. The best way to effect that is, not to trust rogues to keep it: but, as to the parade of safes and vaults, it is i a.l a mockery. i don’t know in which of these Banks the Receiver General keeps his money. (Here, here, said many voices from the porch of the Bank of America.) Well, be it so —and I under take to say, that if he has any special vaults or safes there, they are no whit more secure than those in which the Bank keeps i s own funds. Who and what is this I of the Government? Is not the Government a public trust, and agency ? An individual may put monies in vaults —but the Government is not a private person, having pock et' of his own. It must employ o.beers, it must trust somebody. My colleague in the Senate,Mr. Wright, says the object is to keep the money by agents of tire people more directly responsible to the people iban heretofore. How is the lact ? The Receiver General is appointed by the Presidentand Senate, is amenable to the law, gives bonds for the faithful execut on of his office. In what doss he differ as to responsibility from the Collec i tor, who is appointed in like manner, answerable , in like manner to the law, and gives bonds in Ukc manner ? How, then, is the one more directly re sponsible to the people than the other ? ihe pre r tence is destitute of sense cr reason. And so as to the safety of the funds. The vaults and safes in which they are placed, are no belter or more secure than those of the Banks, The Receiver General be e, is, I doubt not, a very respectable man, and las given good security; but why or how are tire funds in his vault safer than if in a bank vault ? The common sense of the communi ty will de«i;le this point. Suppose Mr. Allen were to-morrow to advertise to receive deposits in his vaults—would they, think you, be filled to the emptying of the vaults of banks responsible in their whole capital and credit fur the safe-keeping of such dope'its ? Instead of rendering them safer, I say the present system endangers Bhe public funds, for in multiplies the chances of evil. Mr. Hoyt collects tho monies—but they are paid out by Mr. Allen, on whom drafts from the Treasury aie drawn Now, the Collector, if not honest, can spend the nroney before paying it over to the Re ceiver; and so, once in the hands of the Receiver, he, if not honest, can spend it before it is drawn out by the Treasury. You double the chances of loss, by doubling the hands that touch the money, i Then as to the promised infusion of specie into the currency by the operation of this bill, —what ir there in this ? According to its provisions, one quarter of tie duties is now payable in specie:.yet | if one of you have a bond to pay at the Custom House, if he goes to tne Collector with a check certified as payable, one fourth in specie, and the residue in Lank bills, does he not lake it. (Yes from many voices.) Well, then, all this specie talk is mere -ham. But suppose you go to the Re ceiver General with a draft. He pays you in bills of the Bunk of America, —but where is the specie ? He wiil doubtless, if you exact it, give you specie, but habitually' the payment is in bills ; and then I ask, where is all this movement of specie, this marching and countermarching of gold and silver that was to dazzle our eyes ? It is all humbug (loud cheers ) But your Collector, where does he put hig money before it gets into the Receiver s vaults ? Why, fellow citizens, as lam informed, m a bank of cuiaavory name, the Bank of the Uni ted States, —and when he pays over, he pays no specie. Then, as to the divorce of Bank and State —what in fact is it ; Is not the greater part, I wiU not say the whole, for I suppose the Receiver keeps some in his vaults ; but is not the greater part of all th; money of the government now absolutely in the keeping of the banks ? I believe it is. You collect from individuals and pay to individual agents of the Government, and they forthwith pav Rant© banks —and, therefore, instead of there being a divorce, the connection is become rather more inti mate than ever, and like other illicit connections, a great deal more secret. This is called an Independent Treasury: inde pendent of nothing but public opinion and public supervision ; and the pretended separation between the Government and the Banks is all a sham. But although a sham now, the authority to demand specie when all dues to the Government shall be payable in coin, will be a most dangerous one. if the revenue snail ever again come to its former a mount, and our commerce resume its activity, it wall be in t're power of the Receiver General, at this place, to break every solvent bank; and if this be true of New York and the sea board, it is more emphatically true of the banks at the West, where the re< eipts at the land offices are large. And this bill, professing to render the Treasury independent cd the banks—how independent you have seen —is called a second Declaration of In dependence—Now, so far as Banks are concerned, the law authorizing the issue of Treasury Notes ought to be called the third Declaration" of Inde pendence. How does that render us independent ot banks ? 1 will tell you. At this moment about two mill.ons of these notes, bearing interest, are lying in that and that bank, (pointing to different bank houses within lus eye,) sold to these banks, with authority to the Treasury to draw for the a mount thereof.—and these drafts arc so arranged that the banks make a very reasonable —not to say a very unreas nable, amount of interest upon these notes before they are called upon to pay the cost thereof. We had before us the accounts of a bank that bad taken a large amount of Treasury Notes bearing interest, and credited the Government, with the lace of them, and paying the drafts oi Government as presented, that appeared by that single operation to have made a piolitof from s>o to 100,000 —and this is the mode in which the third Declaration of Independence of the banks works. Ot the live millions of the Treasury Notes last authorized, 1 repeat, above two millions are now in banks ol this city, and I know not how much more in banks in Boston and elsewhere-- drawing interest while the money is not all advan ced. This is the financial skill and economy of the Treasury,—this the divorce from, and inde pendence of, Banks. The fashior now is, since Mr. Calhoun, followed by the gentlemen who usually follow him, gave the signal, to discredit paper money as much as possible They avow tnis tube their object. Who can foretell the evil consequences of seeking, i through the Custom House, tiie Post-Office, and the Land-i offices, to throw doubt and discredit up on bank papci ? The refusal to receive, and the attempt to discredit, this circulation, is, in fact, a power to brea,c solvent banks, but it is not a power or means to compel insolvent ones to perform their duties. The demand of specie on the notes of spe cie paying bai ks may break tiem,butsuch demand passi s unnheeoed by those who do not pay specie, but it is maim allied by Mr. V\ right, that no danger is to be apprehended from this source, for that a sum not exceeding live millions of dollars will perform all the functions of receipts and expenditures by the Government. We do noi know upon what estimates of revenue or expenditure Mr. Wright founds this ca culation. He does not tell us whe ther he expects the thirty nine millions es annual expenditure, u mer Mr. Van Buren. will be brought down to the kirteen millions ©f the piodigal ad ministration o; J. Q. Adams; nut he insists that live me lions will accomplish all that is required. Well lake it at live millions, and what ;hen r Why, tive millions in specie is equal to the full average* moii ty oi all thespecie in your city banks ? Wnat then, would i c the effect upon them of the a: cumu lation of five millions of specie in the hands of the Receiver ? i Another main argument for the Sub-Treasury. J according to Mr. Wright, is, that it prevents ban s j from discounting on the public monies, and there fore the necessity of Receivers General, who shail keep it locked up until wanted for the public ser vice. He traces fluctuations in our currency to the use made by banks of the public monies, and desires that these maybe restrained. But it only five mill ions will be in the j.oss*ssion of the Re ceivers, can that sum suffice those fluctuations? Can five millions, absent or present, affect the gen eral d'seounts, circulation, and busincssof the coun try f The argument of the Senator do not coin cide or stand together. The only difference he 'ays between the late and present svstem of keep ing the public monies is, that instead of the Hank of America, Stephen Allen keeps them, so that they ernotbe used for banking purpoes. But what then becomes of the specie concern if this be the only difference ? I will not detain you any longer on the practical operation of the Sub-Treasury so far as regards Ihe recepits and exoenditures of the public, you understand its effects and operations to the whole scheme is, that it not only makes no pro vision for, but professedly abandons all inteiestjn and concern about, the currency of the country.— This is the cardinal, decisive ob ection, which is to determine the fate of the present Administra tion.—This question ha« now been so long before the country, so fequenlly,discussed, that 1 will not go into it anew. The people are competent to judge of it for themselves, and that judgement will I apprehend, soon be promulgated. One topic more 1 desire to advert to before fin ishing. We have the happiness under the benign permission of Providence, to live in a countiy ol which we may be proud for many reasons. Proud of its liberty, of the public spirit and enlightened patriotism of our fellow-citizens ; proud al.>o, and most proud, of the public morality, sound faith, substantially coirect morals, that hive distinguish- j ed the administration of our affairs, and the con duct of the countiy, since it took its place among the nations of the earth. Among the evils most threatening now are at tacks upon this moral charactei, this high faith, which have distinguished us, and in virtue of which we have maintained our high standing a mongst nations. Sentiments have been broached that strike at the very foundation of oursocial and political system. I speak not now of do trines promulgated in any one Slate, that a man has no right to leave his own property, acquired by his own labor and industry, to his own children —and other like absurdities —but I refer to the doctrines maintained here and e.sewhere, that no set of men can bind those who are to come after them, that no Legislature can bind its successors, nor make and contract which another Legislature may not repeal. One generation not bind their successors ! Who shall maik the lines that separate genera tions ? These change daily, hourly. This Ameri can community when I began to address vou, was composed in part, of men not now in existence, ai id is composed in part of others not then in exis tence. How abhorrent is this doctrine to the great general principle, that although individuals may flourish or decay, States are immortal. Great po litical sovereignties and communities are ever young, ever green, ever identical. Individuals may change, as the atoms of our bodies change, but communities continue to exist, as oui bodies do — with this exception, that whereas, we know our bodies are mortal, and that there is a time appoint ed for all the living, and that we must all return to the dust from which we sprang, our country will sui vive. and at that last moment of our mortal ex istence, the thought of it will still dwell m our hearts, and the aspiration go up, that she may be Immortal. (Mr. Webster then sat down amid cheers oft and again repeated.) i ■ * This may be nearly accurate in the present condition of the Banks, when they are overbur dened with specie; but generally speaking, five I millions are equal to the whole amount of specie held by oar City Banks. They resumed specie paj'- ments upon five and a half millions. This, there fore, greatly strengthens Mr. Webster’s argument. —[Ed. N. V. Amer.] From the BrJt<more Patriot . A witness Called Against Harrison* The Globe of Tuesday has several columns of labored remark, and far fetched extracts, intended to induce the opinion that General Harrison w a * not the “real hero” of Tippecanoe. The Glooe’s principle witness in this generous and patriotic effort, Duane’s Philadelphia Aurora, of 1812 ; and the burden of its testimony consists of a string of interrogatories, the principal object of which is to exalt Col. Boyd, as the “real hero” and great man of the day, rather than particularly to depress or disparage Gen. Harrison. Il the Globe relies upon the testimony of the* editor of the Aurora, rather than on the character of the paper itself, the Globe should inform Ule people that Mr. Duane was about the period in. question, a political malcontent, and general fa ilt linder. His paper was no longer the organ of the democratic, or war party, is Pennsylvania—lav ing been superceded by the “Democratic Pr.iss”' —hence, no doubt, his sharp criticisms upon, many of the leading men, and important measures of the day 8o much for the temper of his adi*- lorial criticisms of the period. As to judgement of the editor of the Aurora, if that boa poinfiup on which the Globe relies, in making good the Aurora srt’ctures on ihe military conduct of <3en. Harrison ; it would be but fair to tell, that ihe aforesaid editor, was at the period in question,.not only a supporter of the hypothesis that Gea. Buyd*. was the author of Junius’ letters, hat a jirm.. believer in Redhtjfier's Perpetual Motion, whibhi he pronounced in the Aurora of 1812, the th.rril “great trophy of American genius.” To ail that might be urged however honestly,, by such a witness, against the military capacity of Gen’l Harrison, the friends of the veteran— the people—either then or now, would hardly deem it necessary to reply. It will be readiiy un derstood. that one who, had firm faith in Ked heffer’s (or any other man’s) Perpetual Motion, would not be the sort of person likely to have faith in Gen, Harrison. The faith in one case would hardly be consistent or reconcileable with faith in the other. He who had firm faith in Red heffer, and could, time after time, pronounce his ■errant imposture a great trophy of American gen ius—a “real” discovery—might well have some fleeting “doubts” about the character and services of Wm. H. Harrison. But it it be the character of the paper itself, upon which the Globe relies, when citing the Philadelphia Aurora, against General Harrison, it is sufficient, and more than enough, to state that it was this same Aurora, that rejoiced when the administration of Washington was brought to a close, and declared that the dat which ended the official term of the Father of his Country, ought to he “held as a Jubilee” throughout the land ! The censures of a paper which thus spoke, of Washington, could hardly work much injury to Gen. Harrison. So much for the Globe’s testimony of To.es day, against the able and faithtul Harrison, vrilh a view to serve the cause of the spoilers. Its no go — as the “whole world” will tell the author of this extra effort to injure the cause of the peo ple, through their chosen candidate. Major Gen. Sir James McDonald, of the British army arrived in thiscity on Saturday, in thestea mer North America, from St. John, and took.lodg ings at the T remont House. This gallant officer is Colonel of the regiment of Coldstream Guards, now in Canada. No man in the army has at tained a higher elevation of character in alt those rare qualities which constitute the soldier ami the gentleman. The Duke of Wellington decided that the prize of live thousand pounds sterling, which was left by the will of some gentleman to be bestowed upon the officer who signalized him self for bravery above all others at the latile of Waterloo, should be awarded to Sir James Mc- Donald.— Boston Atlas, The only weapon that the democrats want is the spear of truth.— Old Soldier.

Smith, on in formation received by Willis H. Blaney, that Stith was concerned in an extensive robbery at Boston some twelve or fifteen months since.—The amount stolen exceeded SIO,OOO. It was taken from an iron safe at the Pearl street House, the prop. ie tor of which house had the charge of it. On his examination this morning before Recor der Rush, it appeared that this same individual had been arrested on Friday, on the charge of stealing from a Hotel in New York, two gold watches and $l5O in bank notes. The proprie tor, a Mr. Blanchard, gave the information of his whereabouts to officer Little of the Northern Li berties Police, who with the assistance of officer Downer of the city, searched his room at the Man sum House, and recovered the stolen property. The watches were found wrapped up in stock ings. A pair of pincers used for the purpose of opening doors that are locked, and a dirk were al so found in his room. On the recovery of the property it appears that Mr. Blanchard comprom ised with Stith, and declined pursuing him fur ther. This compromise was passively suffered to j be entered into between the parties by the officers. 1 The prisoner was the next day taken before Al- 1 derman Hay, the magistrate who issued the war rant and as no one appeared against him, Alder man Hay could not do otherwise than discharge him, particularly as the officer who had him in charge did not state what he, either knew or should have known, that Mr. Blanchard had returned to New York, having compromised the matter with Stith. Recorder Kush stated that in the first case, on the oath of Willis H. Blaney, he should detain him as a fugitive from justice, until a requi sition of the Governor of Massachusetts should be made, and in the second case as the matter had assumed a new feature evidencing great irregular ity. to say the hast of it, on the part of the of ficers concerned, he had examined it, as if no proceedings had been had. He stated that there was sufficient probable cause to retain him until a requisition is made by the Governor of New York. •Stith is a man of polished exterior and address. Ho expressed himself satisfied that neither the Governor of Massachusetts nor the Governor of New York would make any requisition, and if they did they could not convict him. He has a splendid wardrobe, which is now in possession of officer Little, but which Recorder Rush deman ded should be sent to the office. To this officer Little demurred, giving as a reason that he had a claim on the articles for services rendered. The putting forward of this claim does not argue that all is right in this matter.— Philadelphia Got. c . “ sa ' d » Loco Foco the other day to his ' friend in the Park, when Colonel Hepburn was talking of British Gold—“ do you hear that ]” ( Jim acknowledged that he heard that. “Now” s said the first speaker, confidentially, “do you s know where any of their British gold is to be \ Had f It they arc going to buy us up, I hope i le\ egm soon, or Van Buren wages won’t j a leave us a decent roundabout to vote hi"—New I t sork Courier «$■ Enquirer.

That true-hearted son of the Emerald Isle, who LIVED I “ A HERO, and DIED A MARTYR for his coun- I S J. try, was told, previous to his execution, “That I if the American Minister would consent to his emigration to America, the ASYLUM FOR I - THE OPPRESSED OF ALL NATIONS, he might escape the fate that awaited him.” The application was made to Rufus King, and he RE- i, FUSED ROBERT EMMET A SHELTER ai FROM PERSECUTION, WHEN.

They reached the mouth of Missouri about nine o'clock at night. The Fayette was then astern of the y, Glaucus about fifty yards. Just at a point of the pj river, the Glaucus met the steamboat Pike, dc- , scending from Galena. They passed each other £ in safety, and the Pike, not discovering the Fay* ette, continued on her direct course.
