London. Sept. 18.
The third edition of the London Times has just
appeared, and stales a considerable amount of
French military stores and equipments have sailed
to Egypt, and that Admiral tstopford has orders to
receive them. This, with a previous report of
some < ollision between the French and English
off.Svria, seems no w to make a general war in Eu
rope appear once more inevitable.
FRENCH PREPARATIONS FOR WAS.
London, Sept. 18.
We copy the following from the third edition of
the Morning Po.-t:
“ Paris. Thursday.—Royal ordonnances appear
in the Bulletin dcs Lois, calling out the reserves of
the recond portion of the classes and recruits for
1534 and 183). Thursday’s Moniteur contains
throe royal ordonnances, dated Sept. 10, counter
signed by the Minister of V* ar. The first declares
that public utility urgently requires the execution
of fortifications near Paris. '1 he second opens a
credit of Hx millions of francs for the wonts; and
the third appoints Lieutenant General Viscount
Doda de la Brevaria, to be Superior Director of the
Works.
“ The Havre Journal has a rumor that negotia
tions are in progress for an alliance offensive and
defensive between France and the I nited States.
Tne Toulon Sentinelle of the 13tb, states that strict
orders have been issued by tiie Maritime Prefect to
the persons in the arsenal, to give no information
as to the works in pi ogress. The Paris papers of
Thursday, all comment on the treaty of London
The tone is warlike.
“ Private letters from Paris state that some con
fidence was entertained in the ministerial circle
of the pieservation of peace, if the Porte would
accept the terms offered by M. Walowski to the
Pacha, namely, that Mehemet should hold Syria
for life.
“ The Court of Peers has issued a decree putting
Piince Louis Napoleon and 19 of his companions
(two by default) on then tiial on the 2Sth instant. ;
The Court ordered the release of the remaining 33 ,
prisoners. ' I
t: A new turn has taken place in Madame Lai- ,

have declared the existence of poison in Laffarge’s

“In revictualling Madeah the French troops
were attacked by tne Arabs ; the latter lost lUO ,
killed, and the former 23 killed and 7G wounded.”
A third edition of the Times contains also the
following:
“ The Debats publishes the firman of Mehemet ,
Ali pndoning the Jews implicated in the Damas
cus affair.” }
The markets are much the same as they were by I
our last accounts. '1 he London money market is {
slightly improved —the Liverpool cotton market

The prospects of a general war has pretty much
blown o er. '1 he London Morning Herald of the 1
17th give', by an extraordinary express from Pa- s
iis, the following statement, which may Le deslg- -
nated, “ important, if true.” If the tardy conct s- r
sion which Mehemet Ali has made at the elev- r J
enth hour will satisfy the four puweis, now that ,
matters have been pushed to such an extremity, it
seems a cleverly contrived scheme for breaking .
the old man’s fall, without compromising ins dig- 1
nity or pride. r
The other morning papers are silent on the sub
ject of the proposed arrangement, and their cor- |
respondents at Alexandria represent him as being
inflexible at the expiration of the second ten days 1
notice. We sincerely hope for tne sake of human- i
ity, and the preservation of the pence of Europe, :
that the Herald’s statement may be true, as it j
opens a door for the pacific settlement of this ugly £
question: ]
v\ e have received the following important com- I
mumcation from our Paris correspondent —Let- i
ters from Malta of the 7th of September contain 1 t
the following important intelligence : | -
j Count Calewsky has proposed to Mehemet Ali a f
I project of arrangement waich the Viceroy has de- j
j cidt d on accepting. The Count has setoff in haste ; 1
0 Constantinople, in order to have the project | *
presented to the Divan, through the French ambas
sador, M. De Pontois. Among other clauses can- !
tained in this projec t there is one, it is asserted, <
which is likely to facilitate the most desperate ar- j
rangement of the Eastern question, viz : Mehemet j
Ali consents to accede to the proposal of possessing 1
Syria for lus life only.
In connexion with this subjejt, we subjoin the *
following from the Morning Chronicle of yester- 1
day. as it contains the views of its well-informed 1
Paris correspondent relative to the pro 1 able future 1
bearing of this question upon the public mind of s
France. | (
“ The thoughts of all public men are at this mo
ment turned towards pcac e, whilst, unfortunately, !
the ill-informed public is striken with ti e panic 1
of war. We wait for news from the Levant of ihe ■
12th and i3lh,from Beyroot and Alexandria, with i
* ihe greatest impatience.. for all depends upon the i
nature o', the tidi igs brought. If Napier can do j
nothing effectual in Syria in the first foitnight of i ,
the bio kade, he will be able to do little after
i wards ; for towards the close of September the con
test becomes too dangerous for vessels to lie off',
jOn this at least the French calculate ; and they say J
that if the English and the Turks have struck no ]
decisive blow before mid September, the execution i
of the treaty must oe virtual y deferred till spiing. \
1 give you these as the ideas prevalent here, ideas (
which contribute much to render the French paci
lie and patient.
London, Friday night, "J
September 18. y
We have been in a slate ot the utmost suspense
during the week, and we cannot tell for even an '
hour what aspect the Eastern Question may as- ;
sume. At present the French people are most
violent in their denunciations, anc have not at all
softened down in their acrimonious feelings
The Parisian papers continue sending forth their
j manifestoes against England ; and represent the
! conduct of the British government as being utterly
oariance with all recognized principles ot na
tional justice. This, remember, is the
French version; ours it a different one,although
I do not hesitate to say that it is to be wished
that England had shaped her course rather differ
ently in some respects. However, there is noth
ing to justify the present conduct of our French
neighbors, and th«y may probably have cause
deeply to deplore the headlong course they are
now pursuing.
Since my last despatch to you, the quadruple
treaty, with the various additional diplomatic pa
pers, have been brought to light.
TRF.ATT OF COMMERCE BETWEEN FRANCE AND
ENGLAND.
We arc enabled to slate that the British and
French Comsiissioners have orought to a close
their negotiations for a treaty of commerce be
tween Great Britain and F rance, and that it con
tains se'cral clauses nigh y favorable to British
manufactures. The very few points which
may be considered open are mere technicalities.
of no importance whatever, and which cannot hy
possibility be made the subject of any di9»ussion
affecting either the principles or the details of the
treaty. •«. . . .
But for the unpleasant differences which have
arisen on the Eastern question, the treaty would
have already received the signature ofM. Thiers.
His motives for not signing it under such circum
stances will be understood-, hut Mr. Porter re
mains in Paris, and there appears to bean under
standing that the treaty will Designed the moment
the political horizon shall have brightened up. —
The announcement of signature will then be re
garded as a strong indication of the. resumption
of harmonious intercourse between the two na
tions — Galiglidin's Messenger.
A letter from Constantinople, published in the
Gazette of Leipsic, states, that the “Turkish fleet
which had sailed from Constantinople under the
orders of Commodore Walker had on hoard 25,-
000 muskets and 1,250,000 cartouches. It like
wise mentions that ihe Ottoman Porte had des
patched a courier to Rome to request bis Holi
ness the Pope, to give orders to the patriarch
of Lebanon to exhort the population of Syria to
observe obedience to the Sultan. If the Pope ac
ceded to this request, there would very soon be
60,000 men under arms in Syria.
A letter dated Constantinople, 26th of August,
published in the Journal de Frankfort, slates that
the English frigate Talbot passed into the Bos
phorus on the 21st, to replace the frigate Dido,
which had sailed for the Sea of Marmora.
Rcmokei) Destruction of Canton. —A let
ter has been received by an eminent mercantile
house in this town, dated Bombay, Julv 23,
1840, and ( whicl> contains the following extract :
“ There is a rumor current in town (Bombay )
of an express from Calcutta, advising the arrival
of a steamer from China, with the news of the
destruction of Canton. How far it is true we
cannot say ; but it is quite possible so far as the
time is concerned.” We shall not be surprised
to see this rumor coufirmed by the next advices
from China. —Liverpool Mail.
The Macon Messenger says ; —Judge Colquitt’s
weeping and wailing after bis lost virtue have all
been in vain. He was the champion of his Party
—the Atlas of the Van Burenites —but he is beaten,
and well beaten at that. This is glorious news.
His own County has shown their estimate of him
by beating him one hundred and forty ! So should
apostacy be rewarded. He has just'y, with his two
colleagues, got the meed of a traitor.
The Macon Messenger alluding to the election
in this county', says:—“ RICHMOND is “in the
field” for Harrison, and has discharged her Gene
ral for him. This is the first time this County has
refused to elect General Glascock ; but he has been
“ in the field ” of Lite, abusing a better man, and
a greater General, and she has floored him in con
sequence.
From the Macon Messenger.
We would direct the attention of our leaders
to the lollowing extract of letter, recently written
by Major MARK A. COOPER to a gentleman
in Upson. It is a fair specimen of the locofoco
hard money doctrines of his party, hut which was
strenuously denied by many of them previous to
the election. "Will they discredit ihe words of
this champion of their mordern humbug democra
cy ?
“I desire also to bring you, and all such mature
ly to consider the past and future operation of the
banking system and especially the U. S. Bank,
and the great experiment [the Sub-Treasury.]
the American people have made and are making
at tree institutions and self-government. Our
local Banks arc in existence. We cannot in
safely to ourselves, or justice to them get rid of
them short of their expiration, a violation or sur
renderor their charters. No one has thought of
doing it, but ail should require them to furnish a
sound currency at all times convertible into specie.
—I am clear in this however , that in a republic,
no book of circulation ought ever to be chartered.
Tim most we can now do is to prevent all the
mischief we can, all we want to restore the lest
of times, which under the systen we can hope for
industry, frugality, intelligence, and specie pap
meats.
How it works.—The Richmond W r hig af
ter noticing the wonderful success of the Whigs
in Maine, says :
Here as every where else, the reality has out
stripped the preconception. The Whigs are
proved stronger than the Whigs themselves
thought. And from Louisiana to Canada, it is
now manifest than ail is destined to fall betore
the energies of an abused and excited People.
These preliminary tState elections are but the agi
tations of the great deep, and rumblings under
the Earth which precede the Earthquake’s collec
ted fury and final catastrophe.
What prospect, what forlorn and desperate
hopes, can Federalism now have of sustaining it
self 7 From what quarter of the Heavens does
this hope cornel The North, the South, the
East and the West have alike cast it out. Not
one State can it now securely count upon for ascer
tain as we live the wave from Vermont and Maine
will roll into New Hampshire, and put in peril
their ascendency in that Siato, famous for the
love of Majorities I —\\ hen did the civilized world,
since the days of Peter the Hermit, witness the
spontaneous collections in any part of Christen
dom, «t the People, in such immense masses an
imated by so unanimous and determined a spirit]
Is not one almost justified in crying out as did the
Christian hosts ot the 11 th century when they de
termined to redeem the Sepulchre of Christ tiom
infidel desecration—* It is the will of God ! It is
the will of God !”
Glory and honor to the American People !
Eternity to their Liberty and Free Institutions !
How majestic. daily aie they shaking effthe re
proach of the last twelve years of slavish submis
sion to practical Despotism ! How gloriously are
they vindicating the sometimes doubtful but ever
dear pretension of man t» the competency to gov
ern himself! How splendidly are they dissipa
ting the fears of the friends of human rigius, and
the hopes of their foes !
And now we ask, in serious earnestness,
ought not the friends of power to relinquish the
struggle, and end the excitement of the country ]
Ought no' Mr. Van Buren to give way to the
will of the People, and withdraw from the con
test 7

General Harrison’s Late Tour.
We learn that General Harrison returned to
this city on Thursday, having travelled in the stage
Irom Columbus in 24 consecutive hours; an act
of bodily activity which would he regarded as a
teat by the boys of the present day r . He posted
irom Cuillicothe in the afternoon of the 18th to
Lancaster; thence 38 miles on the next morning
to Somerset and spoke 3 hours; and hack again
to Lancaster, where he rested on the sabbath.
On Monday he proceeded to Circieviile, and alter
night addressed the people He set out on Tues
day lor Columbus, and thence to this city. Our
whig Iriends may judge of the effect of his speech
es and his vigorous appearance from the following
remark to he found in the “Ohio Statesman” of
the 2 2d, shewing how r the “galled jade winces”:
- -‘■lf General Harrison’s friends'had one particle
of common sense tney would take him home and
Keep him there. Good!— the other day he was
General Mum— now he speaks too much. “Take
him home says Medaiy, who feels him charging
alon g the whole line as he charged at Tippecanoe,
Fort Meigs and the Thames.

From the National Intelligencer.
“A Sufficient Glomy.”— Moved thereto by
letters addressed to us Irorn more than one quar
ter, inquiring upon what occasion, and in what
te"ms, Mr. Van Buren had expressed the senti
ment that it was glory enough for him to have i
served under such a chief as Gen. Jackson, we
have examined our newspaper lilas and books;
and, not being able to lay our hands upon the
entire letter, rve must ask our enquiring friends
to be content with an extract from it, the au
thenticity of which will not be denied. This
extract we lirul embraced in a speech delivered
in the House of Representatives by Air. Pickens
of South Carolina, on the 23d day of May, 1836.
We transfer the extract to our columns, along
with tne observations of Mr. Pickens which pre
cede and follow in the report of his' speech :
Extract from the Speech of Mr. Pickens.
“ We, too, have a modern Octavius, who,
winding his way under the robes of royal favor,
proclaims himself the true and annointed succes
sor, pledged to carry out the principles of his
master. What other earthly'claim has the Vice-
President to his present position, except that he
is supposed to be the chosen favorite of him who
has trampled over the liberties of his countries ]
'Phe gentleman from New-York (Mr. McKeon)
has declared him to be the only candidate who i
has claims up.m the whole Union.
“ For the present I pass by an investigation
into his political principles, and shall only refer
to one document, which speaks a language not
to he mistaken, and develops the feelings and the
nature of the man—which writes his history and
his character more fully than all the volumes
that can be composed by a flattering biographer.
No man can read it without knowing its author.
It is a letter written from London, in answer to a •
committee in New-York, who condoled with him
for his rejection as Minister to the Court of St.
James. I will read from it the following extract
in relation to General Jackson:
‘ In testimony to my public conduct, they are
pleased to speak with culogium of me as con
tributing, while in the Cabinet, to the success of
the present administration. That signal success.
I feel called upon to declare, is pre-eminently
due to the political sagacity, unwearing industry,
and upright, straight-forward course of our pres
ent venerated chief. All the humble merit I can
claim is that ol having exerted myself to the ut
most to execute his patriotic and single-hearted
v.ews, and of having sacrificed all personal con
siderations to insure their success, when threaten
ed with extraneous embarrassments. That my
exertions were arduous, painful and incessant, I
may, without vanity, assert; whether my sacrifi
ces have not been repaid with unmerited detrac
tion and reproach, I leave to my countrymen to
determine. Still I shall ever regard my situa
tion in tnat Cabinet as one ot the most fortunate
events in ray life, placing, as it did, me in close
and familiar relation with one who has well been
desciibed by Mr. Jefferson as ‘possessing more
of the Roman in his character than any man liv
ing, and whose administration will be loooked
to, in future times, as a golden era in our history.
lo have served under such a chief at such a
time, and to have won his confidence and esteem,
IS A sufficient RLosT ,• and of that, thank
Gorf, my enemies cannot deprive me.’
‘Mr. Chairman, I am perfectly aware that
many a man might have uttered such sentiments
without any extraordinary degradation. If they
lad come fioin one who had forever retired into
private lile, it would have been of no great impor
tance. Jf they had come’ from one who was
r .tumble and lowly, and had received private fa-
vors from a benefactor, it would have attracted
no attention. But, coming as they did from one
who was artful and sagacious—who had fixed
his eye on the first offices of his country, with
an ambition that was never varied—who was ga
zing with eagerness for partisan support—l say
sir, that under all the circumstances of tne case,
they are base, vile, degraded, and degrading sen
timents, which no freemen ever conceived in his
heart, and none but a flatterer ever uttered. It I
am to have a loader, in the name of all that is
honorable, let him be one who has the feelings, !
the independence, the heart of a man. If lam I
to follow, let it not be one who cringes before, and
fawns upon, the hand of a master. Every feel- I
ingof my soul revolts with scorn and indignation !
at such sentiments.
“ But, sir, look around, and what is the glaring I
fact in the history of the day ? These semi- I
merits have i heir weight. Is not the whole pat-!
ronage and power of this Government, at this
moment, wielded fur the open purpose of reward
ing their author ? Is it to he disguised that the
Baltimore Convention assembled to nominate a
successor under the dictation of the President 1
Is there a man, who has sagacity to perceive con
sequences. that doubls it 1 Let those things suc
ceed, and it is idle to talk about a free govern
ment. We may have the exterior of freedom,
| but it will be a whitened sepulchre, fair and beau-
I tilul to look on, but full of corruption and rot
| tenness within.”
Hear a Voice from the Grave.
Freemen, look on this picture and hear what
WASHLNGTON say’s:
lo a country like this, where equal liberty is i
I enjoyed, where every man may reap his own
, harvest, which by piopcr attention will afford
him much more than is necessary for his own
consumption, and where there is so ample afield
for every mercantile and mechanical exertion, if I
there cannot be found money sufficient for the
common purposes of life, not to mention the ne
cessary commercial circulation, it is evident that
there is something amiss in the RULING PO
LITICAL POWER, which requires a steady,
regulating, energetic, honest hand to correct and
con'.rol it. Every man’s experience will tell him
when such a state of things exist; the jnost
melancholy and unequivocal proof of it, beirt g-
A GENERAL FALL IN THE PRICE OF
PROPERTY.”
The above is from a letter of Washington to
John Armstrong, and may be found at page 353
of vol. 9 of JSpark’s Lite. ]
And having read and considered this, look at
what follows:
“There can never be prosperous times in this
couutiy, until a poor man, as in England, is
obliged to work for a sheep’s head and pluck a
day, and lie under a cart at night.” Senator
Newbury, a New England Federalist.
“The price of labor is entirely too high. The
laborer in this country can afford to work for
eleven pence a day, and the hard money system
will bring down wages to that sum-wheat will
also come down to 16 cents a bushel, and every
thing else in prop rtion This is the best tariff
you can have, and the only one that can enable
the manufacturer to compete with England. The
bub-, reasury will effect both objects-it will
put down the banks, and bring waces and every
thing down.”—if. Tappan , Loco Foca U. \
