majesty objected, not to tlm warlike wording of
the speech in general, or to that of any part of it,
hut to tho announcement in one parairagh of tlie
immediate lew of 150 troops more. This includ
ed the anticipated levy ol the conscription of
1841. The London Evening Chronicle says:
it seems Unit the (iermnii Powers have made n
strong representation against the increase of the
French army,* pointing out its inevitable result
to be, not to settle the Eastern question, but to
disturb the pence of Europe. The King, there
fore. objected to any such great addition for the
moment to the military force of the country.—
Ministers immediately tendered Uieir resigna
tion*. The King lias accepted the resignations,
nnd already appointed Marshal poult to form a
new cabinet.
tinligiiatii's Messenger say*: we have jnsUe-
ceivetl the important inielligeuce that Al. Thiers

nation, on account of a difference with h» Mu*
jesty relative to certain pamgrapli* in die draft of

sidered too warlike in their tendency. Count
Mole and Marshal Soldi have, it is said, been
summoned to St. Cloud.
“ We nre confidently assured,' says the Uni
verse, “ that the drawing up of the speech from
the throne for the opening of Uie Chambers, is
giving rise to serious dissetitious between the
King nnd Uie Couudl of Minister*. His Ala.
jesty, it is said, wishes that the speech should
contain a pnragraph, iu vague nnd pacific terms,
concerning tho new position of 'ranee with res
pect to the Allied Powers. The Council, on the
contrary, is said to iusist on adopting a language
more significant and more in accordance with the
demonstrations made since the 15lh July. If we
are well informed, tho solution of this discussion
1ms been postponed for \ couple of da; s, and

Tito London Evening Mail lias the following
abstract ofthe latest speculations of the Paris pa
per*. and intelligence from that capitol:
Those of the Pari* Journal* which notice the
4 re-construction of the Ministry object to it. Tlw
ultra-liberal papers regard the new cabinet as
purely doctrinaire, and consequently as "minister
of re-action, that contemplated further, restric
tions of public liberty." Some of the journals
go even further, fur they assert that the ministry
had been dictated by the allies; white we are as
sured the contrary was the fact, for that "during
the whole time dial the cabinet was in progress
of re-cousintiion, neither the King nor Marshal
Sonic, nor M. Guncut, saw a single member of
the corps diplomatique."
The public seemed every moment to regard the
new Cabinet n* mure and more likely to be able
to maintain themselves triumphantly in office.
Tho speculators oil Uie Bourse, it will be seen,
were not hehiml in this anticipation. In a word,
os far a* circumstances yet justified the formation
of mi opinion on Uie subject, it would appear
that uo ministry had entered upon office during
tha last eight or nine years, with belter prospects
of permanency.

of a U. S. Senator. Tho Hon. A. Rxkd was
called to the. Chair, and the Hon. J. A. Jones ap
pointed Secretary. Resolutions were iinatiim-
onsly passed, npprnving of tlm conduct ofthe
Senntors.nndlhn\ a firm adherence to their course

ET The late foreign news is interesting nnd
important. There appears to he at present a
great disposition on the port of European rulers
to follow the example of Chxri.es V. in resign-
ing their crowns into tlm lintid* of their succes
sors. First, king W tu.uv, of Holland, yielding
eiffier to the influence ofthe tender passion, or to
Urn fatigues and cores of government, abdicates
in favour nfhis son, the Prince of Orange. Now
we Imve tlm late intelligence that Christixa,
Queen of Spain, has nbdiented in favour of her
young daughter Isarj^la II., to whom site loaves
an inheritance of civil war, nu enormous debt,
public discontent and private misery. This young
woman has before her the prospect of a pupil
age under EsrARTKRO mid other ambitious no
bles, compared to which the life of tlm humblest
peasant in the Spanish monarchy is happiness
and prosperity. We are surprised that Gov
Tacos docs nut step forward to the relief of hi*
suffering country. Possessed .of rar« ebiiiifo*,
indomitable-perseverance, and perfect loyalty,
neither Urn danger of assassination, nor any other
consideration ean ever turn him aside from the
path of duty to his Queen and coiiutry. lie is
unquestionably one of Uie first men ofthe pre
sent age, and undoubtedly the first subject of
the Spanish monarchy.
Tlm aspect of E-OTopean effirire, ns .might have
been expected, is decidedly peaceful, nnd to it ns
ministry, t
miumtrntii
of Congress hut more appendages of the minis
try, is corrupting, insidiously corrupting in iu
tendency, and totally at war with the genius of
our institutions. Wo know that these things
have gradually and imperceptibly been growing
upon us from the example of the British Parlia
ment, hut they ate none the lest dangerous on
(lint account.
Tlm connexioh iu the British Government,
grows out ofthe system there# of laying down
tlm reins of Government os soon os itjs ascer
tained that the ministry are in a minority 1 ) but
here, it is otherwise—Urn administration does no 1
go out of pmver as soon as they are ill the min
ority, and consequently, engrafting a portion (if
the system, is manifestly absurd and Injurious, to
say nothing oflho servile nnd contemptible spirit
which dictntos such imitation.
Growing not of litis same gradual changing of
our system, is the interference ofthe Contra)
Government with the action ofthe Slate Legis
lature*. No sooner is it ascertained that oil Ad
ministration is nlinitl to lo»o lira majority ill the
Semite, than the whole machinery of patronage
and power, is set to work to correct the evil. In
stead of this manifest di-approbation of public
opinion, working a chango in the measure* ofnur
rulers—our rulers straightway set about chang
ing public opinion, or rather giving a ftlse ex
pression to it. If they foil in the animal election
of U. S. Senator.*, viz t in returning friend* of
tho Adpiini*t/|ilinii for those that nnnnally go out,
tlm next proceeding is to ascertain » State where
the majority i* doubtful, nnd mnnamvre until one
of tlm old Senators is instructed out of his seat.
This whole system strikes at the very foundation
of State Rights, Stale Sovereignty, and State In
dependence, and is moreover totally nt war with
the wkolo spirit nnd genius of our institution*.
It wad never intended that tho General Govern*
mentsbonld exercise any sort ofcontroiil over the
Stale Legislature*, ortholr representatives—the
United States Senators, ll was intended that the
Administration should he the obedient servantsof
the People,it not the Pnoplo or the States the obe-
diunt servant* of the Administration. This whole
system grew up during the last twelve years,& it
must he cut down during the next four, root and
branch. l ot a vestige of this monstrous heresy
must remain, or State Rights is a mere nnmn
without ii meaning.
It is Hue that during n former Administration,
tlm germ of this rotten system sprung up. It
wns attempted to be practised upon the Hon.
\Vn. I). Gines, n Senator from Virginia; but
(ailing then, it fell into abeyance, until Mr. Var
Di rks reimported it from England.
The whole doctrine is founded ill n total mis
take, (real or intentional) of our institutions, and
turns upon the point before alluded to, viz.
whether tlm Government is to he obedient to the
People, or the People to the Government.
The late cYy of British Gold came peculiarly
well from an Administration that has engrafted
more oflho spirit of their institutions upon ours*
than ever George the third was enabled to do.
backed by a standing army nnd Governor* nom
inated by himself. We shall ring the changes
upon litis subject. Wo intend to preach tho doc-
trines of State Right* in earnest, nnd denounce
nil interference with them, let it come even from
the White House, nr whatever source it mny.

STATE RIGHTS AND REFORM,
There has been much said during the late can
vass, aboutbringing the Government back to iu
ancient usages, and for ourselves it was not used
as a mere argument for the time being, but was
maintained in good faith, and in nil sincerity and
truth.
Now tlmt the Whigs Imve attained tho ascen
dancy, it becomes diem to redeem their pledges
before the nation and die world; but, in order to
attain Uiis, it requires dial we should studiously
commence the work of self-examination. The
various and gradual eiicronclunenU which imve
wormed themselves into and upon our institu
tions. iu the Inst twelve years, have been n» silent
and unheralded, many of them, a* the footsteps of
dura itself. It is one of die manifest duties of an
Editor to study for tho people, and Isy before
them die result* worked out. We shall from time
to time, attempt to veizo upon diese innovations
ns dray present themselves in the ordinary oc
currences of die Government during the short
lima that yet remains to the present dynasty,
For the present, and just preceding die meeting

find an excuse for diem. Having " strutted their

rcftiaed to act and was ready now to vote.
Mr. Spencer rose, briefly to explain the course
lie hod taken in this extraordinary business. He
noted for himseirand. not for another. Ha was
guided lo the course pursued by him by what lie
considered the letter and apirit ofthe .constitution
ofthe United Stale*.
He did not construe this instrument for any
memlior ofthe legislature | he accorded to every
man the full anil free exerei«o of his judgment and
conscience while a member of this Legislature,
and ho claimed for himself what lie conceded to
others.
He ftirtlter believed the remedy adopted hy the
Whig party, the only means to preserve the con
stitution of his country inviolate, and tbeancred
regard lie had imbibed for that constitution, would
always induce him to persist in any course to
auvo tlmt constitution imnciiinte.
Once more, tho gentleman from Walton, nnd
others have spoken of the surprise expressed by
our friends in reference to this proceeding. Sir
(said Air. 8.) why should wo not be surprised,
when the Senator from Muscogee, some (Arcs
weeks ago moved tn take lip this resolution In
assign it some day, that motion wns opposed by
the gentlemen and hi* friends who are wow urging
us to net.
But, sir, in their opposition to the measure,
did they whisper one syllnhlo about imlefinnte
postponement? Not at nil. The argument then
was, that they might become acquainted with the
probable candidates, tn know who were bnnk-
men nnd who were not, but no intimation about
lying on the tnble the balance of the session.—
Sir, I shall close as I begun. I hold myself res
ponsible to my conscience, tn my constituents,
to my country,and to my God. Acqiiited at these
tribunals, I shall rejoice—convicted hy these, I
■hall not murmur. Let others be guided by the
same rules, and I shall never condemn or accuse
them.
Mr. Graves, Mr. Jones, Mr. Dawson, and
others, nt <de some conciliatory remarks, nnd on
motion of
Air. Gordon, the Senate took a recess for half
au hour. On returning to the 8enate, Mr. Daw-
son moved that the resolution to bring on the
election of United States Senator lie on the tnble
for Uie present. (two-Uiirds requisite)—Yeas, 03.
N«y», 18. Carried. So the difficulty was dis
posed of.
Tlm Senate took np other resolutions nnd d»-
posed of them, and went into consideration of
Air. Dunsgen's nnti-United States Bank resolu
tions.
Mr. D. lias favored us wills quite a long speech
ngninstlhe bank.
Mr. Gondor spoke at length in favor of aU.
States Bank.
A great number of amendments nnd substi
tutes have been offered on this subject. I rather
guess they will all be laid on the table indefinntely.
Yours, dec.

but few large lists on the market, os tnnst of the late

them a little more, but generally much dullness pre
vails, the very tight state of money matters operating
against activity. Six per cent, and commission is
readily paid on first rate bills in London and higher
rates in the manufacturing districts, and while this
lasts, business will continue more nr less depressed.
The Cotton market wns very depressed until tlw
middle nf last week, when some revival look place,
and Uie rates of our lost advices were again establish-
ed. Tbe soles of our Inst two weeks amount to 45,000
bales, of which 4500 tp.spcculstors, and of test three
days since 30th ult. to about^OOO bates at the closing
rates of last week. The accounts from yoor side oT ’
decrease in ibis years growth does not appear likely
to affect the market much, aa the lowest estimate is
considered quite sufEcirnt fur evens large consump
tion, and countervailing circumstances, suck as now
exist with respect to money matters and other nn-
ccrtniutle*, will tend to check an -increase. Much
will depend upon Uie state of money molten."
-LIVERPOOL, NOV. 4.-For foe w«ek ending
23d ult. tlw demand was limited, add although tho
previous quotations were not materially altered,tlw
market closed hjravily, the soles reselling only 16,430
bales, against an import of 11,526 bales, of which
4,983 bales were from tbe United Stale*.
-On the30th all., the sales of the week were re
ported at 28,480 bales, against ‘on import of 28,331
bales, of which 6,918 hales were Amerirsn Ojur
market having assumed more steadiness, tvitb soma
slight improvement iu qualities of American cluster
below fair.
-For the last few days we hove experienced &
steady demand,tbe sales averaging about 4,500 bates
per day.
-Thu middling qualities of American bring now
considered relatively high in price, spinners have
turned theit attention to Buret, for wldcb description
there has been a good demand, as they can be used
advantageously In connection with middling and fair,
qualities of American.
-Among the important .pointa that bear upon the
propects ofthe article, are, the unfavorable positions
of our foreign Exchanges, and the continued caution
ofthe Bank of England in a rigid exclusion of all long
dated paper from being made available for discount.
This proceeding is ol course followed byaUlbeme-
trupolitran ami provincial bankets, and money sgsln
commands a high rate.
The spinners and manufacturer* feel more
particularly tlie effect ofthe pressure upon their,
means, nnd, independently of the injury sustain
ed by this class of’our community, il tends gene-
tally to impair confidence, and restrain* all expec
tation of any material amendment in trade for
sometime Income.
