Tlie rale of iuterfcst may be considered as composed of two elements— 1. The real price of money, 2. The premium of the risk that arises from lending. 1. The real price of money is deter mined by die profitable application that can be made of it ; it consequently varies with the state of the market ; being regu lated, as all market prices aie, by the op posing pi incifdes of demand and supply: die demand being grounded upon the pro fits of business, or speculation, the supply upon the quantity, of disposable capital* tin own into the market. Tho high rate of this portion of interest is the best proof of commercial and general prosperity, since it arises from brisk tiade, extending market;, and high profits. 2. T hc second element of interest is of a different character. It is the premium pail to the lender against the risk of delay or loss. In loans to tiie government this portion of interest may be said to disap pear, and die rate to sink to its first por tion, or the real value of money grounded ' and the American public have fedt the se verity of his pen. Having held a most 3d rule, as reported by a special commit- ! conspicuous station in the eve of the world • and having been at once the terror and j delight of inon of literature, a sketch of j his history may be acceptable to our rea- j dors; and the following, presented to them may bo considered correct. “ This distinguished critic is a native of Edinburgh, and the son of one of the Deputy Clerks of Session in Scotland.— lie was born on die 23d of Ociober, 1773 arid was educated partly at the University of Glasgow, and partly at Oxford. After completing his education, lie was called to the Bar in 1795. In 1801, Mr, Jeffrey maried Miss C. Wilson, daughter of the Professor of Church History in the Uni versity of St. Andrews; and aft ir her death, married Miss Charlotte Wilkes, of New-York, the niece of the celebrated John Wilkes, 6c has had by her one child.

This, then fore, has its natural and fair value as well as the former, and is as little a proper subject for arbitrary lim itations. The original grounds for the interfe rence of government on this subject were two, hotli founded upon error. The first was a religious prejudice grounded upon bigoted interpretation of a municipal provision of the Jewish code, which led the governments of Christen- > - • • ■ -t>:,t -it — or usury (for the terms are not equivalent) of money lent, as an unchristian practice, and permissible, therefore, only to the Jews. This prejudice lost its hold nndei the influence of the Reformation, an ! in i 546 interest was first permitted in Eu rope. The second i.s a prejudice equally un founded, but ofmore scientific pretensions. It arose from 'he fallacy of regarding mo ney alone as wealth, and the interest of monov as so much extorted from the ear- j and such niu :s of ilie industrious. TIence, the bold- j presions, ersof money were invidiously regarded as men pursuing theirown interest to the det riment of the community. They were., the a !Ve, to he restrained in the exercise °f’the b,fluence it gave them, the public he saved from the grasp of avarice, e noor and ignorant to be protected Mr. Jeffrey, notwithstanding the power of his mind, and his reputation as a writer was a long time in getting into practice, and it was not until within a few years that he succeeded at the Bar of his native country, in a manner commensurate with liis learning and splendid talents. In 1802-3, he became the projector and Editor of the Edinburgh Review which has since been so widely circulated, and so justly praised for the eloquence, learn- ning,vivacity, and terseness of the articles i‘ contained. He is considered, as a crini- : ,.,i Uv——... a... cvirr,;,,^ Uourt, as unrivalled, and though his pro nunciation is verydefective being a mix ture of Province English and undigni fied Scotch, his elocution is so overpow ering & rapid—-his illustrations so happy— his masses of thought so successive, and flashes of mind so brilliant and dazzling •bat all who listen are delighted, and look upon him as one of the most gifted of speakers. There is such a playfulness in nis wit, such richness Id his imagination, choice and beauty in his ex- and such depth and force and energy in his reasoning, that no one can hear him without admiration and deli'dit. Mr. Jeffrey is said, however, to he deficient in that faculty or power so es sential to a orator, of exciting the sympa thy, or rousing the indignation of his part to the election an air of mystery.— ; bravery, had particularly attracted the no We shall give exercise to the imaginations' - of tlie multitude, in conjecturing what hearers, and may therefore be consider ed as more of ;i rhetorician than an orator.

Let the people see what we are doing; let them know that it is neither more nor less than putting our ballots into the boxes, and they will become satisfied with the specta cle and rctiie. Mr. Buchanan said he knew well his friend from Delaware (Mr. McLine) was. willing that all his conduct in regard to the Presidential question, should be exhibited before the public, and that it was principle alone, which had sug gested his remarks ” “ That which gives the subject its chief importance, said Mr. Buchanan, is the precedent. He was anxious that it should he settled on sure foundations. If the rule in its present form should be adopted it may and probably will be dangerous in future times. At present our Republic is in its infancy. AT THIS TIME HE ENTERTAINED NO FEAR OF CORRUPTION.

My readers will bear in mind that the above remarks were delivered on tho 2d day of Feb. 18-25, only thirty four days after Mr. Buchanan made liis communica tion to Gen. Jackson, and when the whole circumstance of the transaction were fresh upon liis memory, and that it was upon the subject too, of the Presidential elec tice of liis officers, and they, even as his comrades, felt as if deprived of a brother. The soldiers retired—and, as I saw them walk mournfully away, casting back many a lingering look on the newly heaped up ! mound, I asked myself if such were the j heroes who had carried the fame of the American arms to the farthest bounds of the earth—if men, who could not witness, without the deepest emotion, the burial of a comrade, could ever have rushed to the charge. I knew that they had : and even at a moment of this kind, which ge nerally brings humility along with it, I was proud of mv countrymen, I rejoiced to see that those who could fight ardently, could also grieve bitterly. But such have always been the feelings and sentiments of an American soldier. -*•«#«*•- EXCERPT. Man was not made to delight always ir» gaiety and mirth. The heart is often sad when the countenance seems to be lighted with the smiles of revelry. The most tri fling and indifferent, cannot always brave the silent monitory voice that bids them look beyond the short moments of time. There are seasons when serious thoughts come rushing home to the mind, and re collections of the past tell us that the joys of earth are delusive.
