FOREIGN NEWS—NINE 1> VYS LATER FROM EUROPE. IRELAND. A gr eat—p?rh a»s tlto greatest—domon et ration which lias yet been made in favor of repeal, took place at Tara Hill—a mejiflt’able spot in the early history ot Ireland and its kinzs.and celebrated even in late years by thq, resistance which w;ts made there to "the King’s forces by the “Croppies” in the rebellion of 1793—0n Tuesday last. AJI the accounts concur in representing this as as the greatest ot nil the “monster meetings.” The repor ters of the various papers, Whig, Tory and Radical alike* agree with O Connell s description pfihis being the crowning gathering of the repeal agitation. The day selected being a strict holiday in the Roman Catholic Church—the festival oi the Assumption —all the ceremonies ol religion were brought to bear upon the enthusiasm of the meeting. Mass was celebrated three or four times before the commencement of the proceedings, and prayers were olfered up tor the repose ot the souls of the “Croppies” whose bones were mouldering beneath, and who fell, according to the notions of all present.in the cause of their country. O'Connell’s speech was in his best style—more ear nest and impassioned, and less flippant than usual, “i feel,” exclaimed lie, “the awful responsibility to my country and my Creator which the part I have taken in this great movement imposes on me.” We regret our inability to do justice to this speech, owing to the many demands upon our space; it is more remarkable, however, for the chcp and subdued spirit of earnestness which marked it, than for anything novel or striking. This meet ing has excited greater alarm on this side of tl»3 water connected with the repeal movement than any former one—or iu deed all put together. The Times of yesterday lias the most desponding arti cle which has yet appeared in its col umns on this now alarming subject of repeal. A crisis, it is admitted on all hands, is not distant. Tli > repeal rent for the week was an nounced to be £1,355. 'File Cork Grand Jury have refused, by fifteen to five, to adopt an Anti Repeal petition. Mr. SharmaaCrawford has declined Mr. O’Connell’s invitation to join the Repeal agitation. lln could no!, he says, consistently join a body that desires alto gether to abolish Imperial Legislation: he does not desire to destroy that system, but simply to add to it the principle ot local legislation.’ 'SCOTLAND.

John Fisher, believed to be the last surviving soldier in Scotland engaged in the first American war, died at Leslie on Friday, the 18th ult., at the age of 92 years. In the year 1770, he enlisted in to the Ist, or Royal Regiment of Foot, of which Lord Adam Gordon was colo nel, hut which was at that time command ed by Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Fra ser. A young lad in Glasgow, who had for sometime past allowed himself to be mes merized by all his companions who de sired it for tlieir amusement, was for two days past so completely put into the mag netic sleep that it was found impossible .to get him out of it. During this time his eyes were shut, his jaws firmly fixed, and neither food nor drink could be ad ministered to him. It was feared the un fortunate youth had forfeited his life to his folly. We are glad to be informed, however, that he was taken out of this unnatural sleep on Thursday afternoon, by a lecturer on mesmerism, after two hours work. This ought to act as a caution to inexperienced operators. * FRANCE. Louis Philippe and his family left Par is, for the Chateau of Eli, on Monday. General Begeaud has been promoted to the rank of Marshal. The French news is of little interest. Queen Christina continued busy in her labors to recover .power in Spain; and rumors as to the marriage of her daugh ter abound; at present they i actuate be tween the Due d’Aumalc, and the Duke of Cadiz, the son of Don Francisco de Paula. The Frencli Minister of War has re ceived despatches from the Governor General of Algeria, dated the 19th ult., announcing the submission of the Flit tas, a tribe which reckons 40 fewer than 40,000 souls, and also different succes sions in part of the province of Oran which lies on the confines of the desert. The Moniteur publishes the official returns of the imports into France during the first six months of the present year. They show on the aggregate a marked improvement. The consumption of su gar which lias increased considerably, for, independently of the result ns to the imports, the stock on hand has much di minished. In May last It was 43,000,000 of kilogrammes, including beet-root su gar, whereas, it is now little more than 30,000,000. 'Fhe approaching departure of M. do Lagranee, Ambassador to the Emperor of China, is spoken of; but with regard to this appointment there appears to lie some difiicu ties raised on the part of the Eng* li h Government. M. de Lagrange, it i said, will sail in a fine vessel of 80 or 90 guns, accompanied by three frigates and two corvettes. Te-.'-eVi .a D b r . j a Qliio .-V. S.lcfi a iiani Uautc, I.la. .. 1a.a.0 uuu. Kiea and two boys to pronounce if. The , object of the fnllowijig extract lias been too seldom looker! at in the ifuc aspect here presented. Wo are indebted for it to the U. S. Magazine & De mocratic Review—a periodical, which, for the great soundness of its political doctrines, the ability of its articles, anti the fine cla-sical taste of its literary de partment, cannot he praised too highly. Tire writer in the Review has been discussing the so much talked of Mississippi Repudiation question, and of course takes the side dictated by justice, honor and democratic principles—the fiat of jus tic - is, the debt must be paid. In this instance as perhaps all others, mans weakness and folly has been attended by sonic benefit. We beir leave to recommend the earcful perusal of the extract to our readers—it is not only valuable for the information it ail">rds, hut for the caution and prudence it should impress respecting die present and the future. One <rood remit, however, at least, may lie ascribed to the agitation of this ques tion in Mississippi—and we are duly and sincerely grateful for it. We allude to the of file European market for our public stocks. Our only tear is, that this effect may prove but tem porary, and that a revival of the confi dence of the foreign capitalists may re new yet-again this pernicious system of •national borrowing, from which through the last ten years we have suffered so much. Our public credit is down now to so low a point that we can borrow no more —Heaven forefend that it should rise again ! —except to the extent of do ing justice to the creditors on our actual existing debt. Such a state of tilings we often hear spoken of as a national calam ity ;it is rather a national blessing. In fact, the doctrine of public credit may he regarded as one of the most pernicious inventions of modern times. Witness its awful fruits in England ! —as well as under other foreign governments to which it has alone furnished, by the un righteous mortgage of the labor and prop erty of unborn generations, the means of carrying 011 the wars, and sustaining the military establishments, with which they have desolated provinces and kingdoms. And within the pa -t ten years in our own country, extravagantly as we have used it, what good have we and -rived from it ? Useful or useless, good or had, our inter na! improvements constructed within that period—is it the money which lias been borrowed on the strength of the State credit that has called them into being ? Far, fat from it. We have gone into debt to European capital to an amount of nearly two hundred millitftis ol dollars, on which', independently oi'the principal, which will soon begin from time to time to fall due, we must pay an annual tax on our whole industry and wealth of about twelve millions of dollars, —hut does the simple reader suppose that it is money wo have been borrowing, through all this period ? If lie does, we hog leave to undeceive him. It is 110 such thing, though we have been most ingeii *"■ W »>g l” m Ivlievo such to be the (act; and that tli« surplus ne.a.i, S fn.. ropean accumulation was thus seeking a mutual advantageous investment in our public works of improvement, at rates of interest attractive to the foreigner, while lower than the value of the use of capita! among us. Ino trum »n,u though we have contracted so enormous a debt, ex pressed in figures, and payable, principal and interest, in real money, we have ac tually received scarce a dollar of it from Europe. The process lias been simply this. We have imported an excess of imports equivalent to the amounts of public stocks we have sold to the Euro pean market. We have eaten, and drunk, and worn, and in various ways consumed them. Little if any tfrice of them now remains, except the debt which we have thus contracted to pay for them, and which must itself be paid by the s\vcat of our own and our childreivs brow* An inflation of our own paper currency at home; and an unhealthy expansion ol private commercial credits, have repre sented the amount of money presumed to be brought into the country as the proceeds ol the salt- of these public stocks. And if any one wishes to trace out the ultimate sequel and result of the whole, and ascertain what has become of the nominal amounts of European wealth brought to our shores by tliis stock-job bing financiering, he will find them as, soon as the Bankrupt Law goes into ef fect, like the fairy money which the next morning converts into dry leaves, stand ing in imposing array of figures and ci phers, among the worthless assets of many a broken bank and ruined specu lator. To some of our readers the proof of the assertion here made will be necessary to enable them fully to realize its truth. It can easily be drawn from a comparative view ot the exports and imports of the country, taken in connexion with the simultaneous issues of State stocks, with in the period referred to. It was in the course of the year 1839, that 11 jo Europe an money-market for American slocks may be said to have been destroyed.— No considerable amounts have been sold since the summer of that year, putting put of view the mere hypothecations which may have been made of some amounts in the possession of die Bank of the United States, and some few oilier institutions. The heavy issue of State stocks may be said to have commenced about 183(1. The amounts created prior to that date had been comparatively small, though after that they went, up to and including 1~33, rapidly crescendo. We use tlie tables compiled by an able hand, in the fall of 1839, from authentic official sources. The amount of stock authorized to be created by eighteen States, in each peri od of five years, from 1820 to 1838, was as follows, viz: From 13JO to UUi, $12,799,723 “ 1825 to IS,to, 13.ti7J.659 “ H3 >to 1335. 4t),0- --J.7G9 “ 1335 to 1333, (say 3 1-2 years) 103-2211103 And die fobowintr are the objects for which these del ts were authorized by the respectivlegi I attires to Ire cr._at; and. viz : i ■ v j “c. iio.jOl.Ssl J. 7I. 1 st ■V ,'J'I fcl 70,3.\ ,3)7 An examination of the imports and ex ports, as shown by the annual re| oils of the Secretary of the Treasury during the same time, furnishes the following re sults. 1-Vjr the sake of the comparison I between them, it is divided into two pe riods, the first from 1820 to 1830, and the second from 1831 to 1838, both inclu sive : Year.

In the second period, eight years, the same excess rises to the enormous sum ot $191,319,920, or an annual average of more than twenty four millions of dol ors. In order to ascertain the actual surplus importations of merchandize within these periods, it is necessary to deduct from these sums the respective surplus imports over the exports of the precious metals within the same periods, A view ot the latter is presented by the following table, similarly divided as before by the year 1830: IMPORTS AXd'eXPORTS OF GOLD AND SILVER COIN. 1821 ss-)61,89!) $10,173,059 $3,413,169 1322 3,36.),3i6 10,8 it), I<9 8,410,331 1.323 5 097.396 0,372.037 1,275,091 IS2I 8,37 J, 335 7 011,55 2 01.65.233 1325 6.159.765 8.797 055 2,646,290 1826 0.330,965 4,093,673 2 732,233 1-127 8,151.130 .8,011,330 136,250 1 (23 7, IS'.) 711 8,213.17 i 753, 73j ICO 7,103,612 1,921,020 2,179.592 1831 8,155,961 2,173,773 5,977,131 $69,144,615 $70,932,650 $12,710,604 sl4 523,619 Excess of Experts, $1,783,015 133 t 7.305',915 >9,011,931 1,703,986 18.12 5.907,5)1 5.656 340 251.144 183.1 7,(i70,3G3 2,011.701 4,153667 1831 17.911,63 s 2 074.7 V. 15,831.374 1835 13,131,447 6,177,775 6,653,672 1334 12,10 ',311 4,321,336 6,076.515 1337 10-516,5i 1 5,976,219 4.510,165 10.13 17,717,117 3,5-93,0(6 14,239,071 $92,991,393 $39 616,136 $55,051,158 $1,703,936 1,703,936 uaco-su $33,315.17* From this tabic \vc sec that there was an excess of exports over imports of' gold and siivet iu tUo Drat of these periods of §1,788,015, or an annual average of about a hundred and seventy-nine thou sand dollars. In the second period there is an excess of imports over exports of gold and sil ver amounting to $53,345,172, —or an annual average of about six millions six hundred thousand dollars. Comparing together these tables, and confining our view to the commerce of merchandize alone, it appears that in the first period the excess of the imports of merchandize over the exports of the same, was §30,150,971, —or an annual average of $3,580,453. Inth ’ of the imports of merchandise over the exports of the same, is in like manner seen to be §140,971,718.—-or an animal average of $17,0:41,813.'

The Whig papers of New York arc much divided as to whether the party shall attempt to make a grand rally at the next State election. The Courier and Enquirer vehemently argues not—most of the rest oppose. The Courier says if we fight we shall be beat, and it will be laid to .Mr. Clay. 'Flic others urged that as far as appearances go, certainly, it ar gues the greatest possible weakness when a party dare not come out at ail—and that the elfeet will be quite as disheart ening and injurious to Mr. Clay. And then they add (die Whigs are celebrated for their “ excellent sentiments”) that it is a high duty they owe to the country to j die, if they must meet the fate of gone coons, fighting valiantly, &c. The dis sentient parties will probably compromise their by agreeing to do their utmost before the election, and then when i they get thrashed, swearing unanimously that they made no effort at all.—Charles ton Mercury. From the Mobile Tribune. STATE OF DEMOCRATIC OPINIONS IN ALA BAMA. The continued obstinacy with which this State is set down for Mr. Van Buren, in preference to Mr. Calhoun, is without any shadow of truth or excuse. Within our own borders, the pretence is merely j ridiculous, but it may tend to serious mischief elsewhere, and we therefore, ve ry deliberately proceed to blow it up. Let tacts speak for themselves. Ot the seven members elected to Con gress, five are for Mr. Calhoun against j the world, and one for Mr. Clay. Os the lour recent democratic candidates for ! Congress in south Alabama—to wit. Judge Goldtlnvaite, Mr. Dixon 11. Lew is, Air. Reiser, and Mr. Bayne, all are friends ot Mr. Caihoun. It is now seen, and generally conceded, that, if the first named gentleman had run more avowed ly on the Calhoun strength of the dis trict, his election would have been cer tain. '1 lie preference of that staunch and u iver-aby popular democrat, our pres ent governor, is the same. Os the last Legislature, Ewing, of Greene, McClung, of Madison; Hubbard, of Lawrence ; Finley, of Jackson ; Mar tin and Cochran, of Benton; Moore, of Perry ; Calhoun, of Dallas ; Bridges, of Wilcox; and Campbell, of Mobile, all prefer Mr. Calhoun. Inis legislative list, embracing but a fraction of his strength, is tiie backbone of democracy in Alabama, embodying a weight of char acter, influence and personal popularity, altogether overpowering, and not to be surpassed by any given number of men in the Legislature then or now. Yet in these leading minds, and their present position, how strikingly visible is the im press of Mr. Calhoun’s influence upon the Democratic party. With but two exceptions, every man we have mention ed was enrolled binder the old union standard in 1833—some of them having been lenders of the union party in tixe counties of their residence. In south Alabama no man can serious ly pretend that Mr. Van Buren could muster u party at all against Mr. Cal houn. In a few counties of North Alabama, it is conceded that Mr. Van Buren would obtain a majority. To wluit extent this may he true, we have, as yet, no authen tic information. But in the southern, eastern, and western sections of the State, there would be no contest whatever; and looking with our present lights, over the map of the state politically, no unpreju diced man can doubt for a moment that Alabama is to be numbered among the staunchest of those democratic states which will stand firmest and foremost for the great champion of the Constitu tion. We say this for the information of our friends abroad, for here the facts are too palpable to bo debated with a se rious countenance. We believe, then, there is no serious j contest about the relative strength of the ; two conspicuous democratic candidates —we trust there will be none seriously made as regards tlieir merits or availibili ty. We trust that the next session of Congress, by a practical application of democratic principles ; by the reduction of federal expenditure; by the honest and permanent settlement of the tariff question; and by confining the federal government to that limited rank of duties for which it was created, will satisfy the people of the south that the pledges of a Baltimore convention are of sincere and efficient obligation, and are not designed to make worthless capital and worthless candidates. That convention (A. IJ. 1810,) told the people these two plain stubborn and undeniable truths. Ist. “ That justice, (and what is that in a free country but constitutional right?) anil sound policy forbid the federal gov ernment to foster one branch of industry *l.- .Wmaut of another; or to cher ish the interests of one portion ufunmn. ion to the prejudice of our common coun try —that every citizen and section of our country have a right to insist upon an equality of rights and privileges, and to complete and ample protection rs person and property from domestic violence and foreign aggression. 2d. “ That it is the duty of the gov ernment io enforce the most rigid econo my in conducting our public affairs, and that no more revenue should be raised than is requisite to defray the necessary expenses of the government.” 'Fbc Southern States are now paying a tribute to northern manufacturers of of above §3.000.000 per annum, extorted under the tariff act of 1842. A just law was repealed, and an unjust law substi tuted. we are ashamed to say it, by dem ocratic votes. Two leading men, pledged with their party to stand by the resolu tions we have quoted, proved faint-heart ed and recreant, when every other mem ber of tlie party was true to his duty. Yet Air. Silas Wright dictates to the par tv upon the best mode of otganizing an other convention, and talks of the “om nipotence of majorities, and of the here sies which give any political weight to the rights of minorities ;” and Mr. Buch anan is offered by his friends for a cau cus nomination as candidate for the Pres idency ! These are samples of that kind of party action which “good policy” re quires to be handled with rose-colored gloves—the same “good policy” which feeds the lazy whipster and muzzles the ox which treads out the grain. What ever prudence may have dictated some time ago, the tint? is come when an un derstanding among southern democrats can be no longer delayed. Now we ask whether with such Facts staring us in the face, the south has any business in a national convention, or to involve herself in any equivocal con trivance whatever, to gain temporary strength, until this glaring act of party infidelity be undone, explained, or amply atoned for ? THE DEU'AMER. The New York Courier ij* Enquirer uses the following language in regard to Lewis Tap pan,- who is now delivering speeches respecting his recent mission to the “ World’s Convention,” in London, and the Editors of papers who have giv en to these disgusting falsehoods, public ity in their columns: “ Lewis Tappan has been delivering speeches at Williamsburg and elsewhere, touching his late wonderful mission to the World’s Convention, in London, and the Editors of two or three papers in this city have deemed it a duty to give the rigmarole at full length in their columns. We quarrel with no man’s tastes, but it does really seem to us that a respectable American Journal might he much better employed than iu thus ministering to the vanity of a self-conceited mass of fanati cism like the concoctor of this absurd v< rbiage. Mr. Tappan’s hnrrafltfiies are not only made up of exceedingly disgust ing egotism and flatulent stupidity, but of sentiment, feeling and opinion in the highest degree derogatory to the ter of the country. If the AbolitionisW of England really took this individual] as an average sample of his countrymen, we blame no soul of them for believing in the dogma of Buffon. They are per fectly warranted in the opinion that the human race degenerates on this side of the Atlantic. A man who goes to Eng land and utters such stale falsehoods of his own countrymen, as this man has not only done hut glories in having done, ought to have called himself a Hottentot; he iiad no right to assume the name of an American.” WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1843.

Horsely Palmer, Esq. late President of the Bank of England, has arrived in New York, it is supposed to reside there. Money is so plenty in England, the leading bank ers have reduced the interest to 1 1-2 per cent. Part of a paved street was blown up in London by the explosion of foul air in a sewer, doing considera ble damage. Father Matthew is making converts to total absti nence by the ten thousand in London. Parliament has at length adjourned, after a most protracted sitting. The tory government seems to he evidently failing. Rebecca riots as active as ever. That funny man, Lord Brougham, made a furious onslaught upon President Tyler and his son iu the House of Lords. In reply to LorJ Palmerston, Lord Stanly ssid that ■he governors of English colonies had orders to c.r- P lnd protection to stores in vessels driven to English ports by stress of weather. Espartero has published his proclamation acknowl edging l.is defeat, and took-refuge at Lisbon; but was not allowed tlie rites of hospitality by the cow ardly inhabitants, and has continued his journey to London.

Mr. Clijy and his supporters pretend to new born moderation in their Tariff notions—look at the ex-> amplification in their last hill, concocted under his own rye, by his own satellites, as entirely under his control, as his negro man Charley—look at it—wo have exhibited some of it* beauties—why it is morar atrociously unjust—more oppressive and insulting trr the South, more disastrous in its operation on tlie commerce and agriculture of the whole Union and consequently to the whole population of the United States, (the factory nobility and their retainers ex cepted) than the infamous Tariff bill of 1828. For Salt, an ABSOLUTE NECESSARY of lilb, Mr. Cloys Whig Tariff' charges a duty of one hun dred |ier cent., or ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS, on a hundred dollars worth of Salt. On Sugar, another NECESSARY of life, Mr- Clay’s Whig Tariff imposes a duty of ONE HUN DRED per cent. .17cn’s fnc Bools, worth seven or eight dollars, Mr. Clay’s Whig Tariff imposes a duty of ONE DOL LAR AN D TWENTY-FIVE CENTS. Ihcol lecl that. And don’t forget that on Mens Coarse Boots, such as thousands of good men have to wear, worth $2 o() to $3 00, Mr. Clay’s Whig Tariff imposes a duty of TWO DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS; al though the poor man’s boots cost one third less, they charge him twice as much. Fellow Cilize is! when you go up to the polls to vote for Mr. Clay’s friends, the Whigs, recollect these startling facts. Women's Nine Bootees, value Six Dollure a pair, JJr. day's Whig Tariff’ charges fifty cents a pair; but on B’o llien's Coarse Bootees, costing only one dollar and fifty cents a pair, only one fourth as mu 11, Mr. Clay's Whig Tariff Law, charges exactly the same amount, Which, in effect, makes the poor woman pay four times as much. Fellow Citizens! I fancy I can see the rising blush of honest indignation, mantling upon the cheek cf every independent voter in the State, be lie Whig or Democrat.' 1 tli it in the streets and proclaim it in every Log Cabin in the State of Georgia! Men's Leather Gloves, embroidered with SILVER, worth Five Dollars a pair, Mr. Clay’s Whig Tarift' imposes the Enormous Duty of TEN CENTS ! Yes, Fellow Citizens, ten cents. But what do you think their duty is on Men's Coarse Leather Glares, value, Fifty Cents 1 Why, exactly the same duty, although they co t only one tenth as much.
