AUGUST t.
Wednesday Ercnin;. April 19, 1837.
By the Idxpress Mail this morning we received
slips from the New York Commercial Advertiser,
Journal of Commerce, American, Evening Post,
and Herald, bringing Liverpool dales to the 18lh
March, and London to the 17th. The news is
. very bad; Cotton has declined since the last ac
counts from a half-penny to three-farthings per
pound. Accounts from the United States are
anxiously looked for in England, and the pros
pect of better times there, seems to he in a great
degree dependent upon the amount of specie,
which they get from this sid f of the water. What
are to he the consequences, when they le.trn the
deplorable sta'e of money and commercial af
fairs here, we shall not even conjecture.
But it is needless for us to comment upon
news—such as it is we give it, with the single
remark, for the benefit of many of our country
renders, that a fall of three farthings is equal to
about one and a quarter cents; add to this the
fact, that the buyer here, must buy for a
still declining market there, and a fall of three
farthings to one and a half cents here.

SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.
By the packet ship Sheridan, Capt. Russell,
we have received London payers to March 17th
and Liverpool to the 18lh, both inclusive.
From Friday the 10th to Friday the I7th. cot
ton experienced a farther decline of id. a Jd. per
pound.
The money mnrketwas such on the 14th, that
cash could he obtained at 3 per cent, per an
num. It afterwards became less easy.
Correspondence of the Journal ofC'ommeree
Manchester, (Eno.) March 18, 1837.
The excitement on the subject of money has
not abated. Neither has the Bank of England
os yet ine,tensed her stock of Bullion. No ex
tension of paper issues can therefore be expected.
To relievo the necessities of those greatly ex
tended, and yet continue the contraction, is a
finest difficult, though imperious demand.
* To depart from this course, might either endan
ger her own safely, or cause a frightful calamity.
This feverish and anxious period may contin tie
some time, for it is to the United Slates o lone that
all u ten'.un is still directed for larger remittances,
and that of specie. Bills of Exchange already a
hound, hut they merely change the course of ro
ai'osibilil cs, and leave the evil unditninished.The
debt roust now be paid, cither in produce or
money. If in the former, its value wil bo re
duced.
Already the loss of Colton has no parallel, un
less in 1825. The middle range of Georgia is
down to 7d, equal only to 10} cents in the Slates.
The trade in this article in all bs various blanch
es is dally falling off, and the workmen arc soon
to he reduced lo 3-4 of a day each, which (with
the present high price of bread and provisions.)
offers, to the almost countless thousands depen
dent on it, a lamentable prospect.
Although the Reformers have got the Church
rales Bill through the Hou-e and Commons, llie
small majority, want unanimity, and the peculiar
stale of the country, will doubtless dispose them
to he quite satisfied, at this session of Parliament,
i if they carry the Irish jMunicipal .del only.
A few unimportant failures have occured dur
ing the week.

SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM ENGLAND.
The packet ship Sheridan, Russell, arrived
A last night from Liverpool, whence she sailed on 1
Sunday the 19th of March, in company with the
, packet ship Columbus for litis port. Our files
are London to the 17th and Liverpool lo the 18th,
| both inclusive. The money market remained
without any material change. The cotton mar- <
I ket was farther depressed.
Parliamentary Proceedings.
Great numbers of petitions, for and against the I
I abolition of church tales continued to he brought I
I up in both houses. From the tenor of some re- 1
I marks, we inter that Lord Brougham will a.lvo-
I cate the measure. The proceedings in the House 1
lof Lords, up to the 16th of March, presentnolh- 1
I ing of general interest. (
In the House of Commons, on the 10th, a do- (
■ hate commenced upon the subject ot intervention *
■ in Spain, which occupied the whole of that and
■ the next session. Lord Palmerston vind.caled
I and justified the conduct of the government, and '
I rhe right and propriety of assisting the constilu-
B tional cause, even to a greater extent than it had '
■ been done.
The church rates bill came up in the lower
I house on the 13th, and was debated very warmly 1
Bon that and the next two evenings. It was op- 1
B posed by Sir Robert Peel, Sir W. Follclt, and
B Lord Stanley, and supported by Lord Howick. 1
B Mr. Fowell Buxton, Dr. Lushington, the Attor- '
B ney General, Lotd John Russell, and Mr. Spring
■ Rice—and finally carried on the 15th, by a vole '
lof 273 lo 250; ministerial majority 23. '
In the House of Lords, on the 16lh, Lord
I Glengle gave notice that he should propose reso-
I lutions respecting affairs in Lower Canada, sim- '
I ilar lo those introduced by Lord John Russell in 1
I he other Hou r. He was aware of the import- '
I ance of the subject, and anxious to bring it fur-
I ward as soon as possible.
In the Commons House, on the same day, Mr. 1
[ Clay brought forward his motion for the suhslb
I tution of fixed duties, i stead of the present
b graduated scale, on the importation of grain. He
i stale I his proposition to he, 10 shillings per
Ir quarter on wheal, 8 on barley and 0 on oats, until
SJune 1840 ; and after that, just half the same

( The motion was lost, only 83 voting for it, and
W 823 against.
| rhe impression was, that the church rates bill
jEpouhl no* succeed even in the House, after the

out by the Lords was considered scarcely
■Questionable.
Mr. 0 Connell has brought in a hill lo secure

London, March 17. —The uneasy fooling in
tlie city which was adverted to yesterday, has
not diminished. Some ot the bank directors
have been in deliberation to-day on the situation
of affairs, which requires constant will hing and
the exertion of all their judgement. Their dis
cussions look place notin the bank put in a pri
vate residence, ns calculated lo attract less notice.
The particular object of them did not of course
transpire, hut it is understood that they did not
refuse their concurrence with any of the arrange
ments proposed lo them to-day.
The consol maiket is declining, though the
difference from the prices of yesterday is n very
trilling one. They left off at 93 to } sot the ac
count.
The Bible Society of London has lately pre

mand for secret service money, on the Jsih of
March. The amount a-ked for was 2,000,000 of
francs, being 830,009 more than that required
last year; the increase was accounted fur by the
necessity of employing an additional number ol
secret police agents, occasioned by the atempts
on the King's life, and the machinations of the
republican clubs.
The examinations ol Mcunicr were not yet
completed ; his trial was expected lo come on by

PORTUGAL.
The advicesxfioin Lisbon arc to the 2nd of
March inclusive. The accounts are more en
couraging than of late. The government had
taken energetic measures to put down the gueril
la disturbances in ihe Algiaves, and they had
been to a great extent successful. A loan had
been negotiated, and the financial difficulties ol
the government were in a fair train of removal.
The kingdom was tranquil, and confidence in
the existing ministry had been much increased by
the prudence of their measures for the attainment
of economy and reform. The project of the new
or amended constitution was ready, and would
be laid before the chambers in a few davs.
SPAIN.
The long lalked-of eomfiined movement was
at last made, on the Kith of March, by Genera's
Evans, Espartcro and Saarsfield. Ibe contest
was not yet ended when the latest advices were
despatched, hut the movement a| pears lo have
been to a considerable extent successful, although
the success was gained only by very hard fighting,
and with severe losses on both sides.
General Evans gained possession of the heights
near St.Sehas'ians, and of all the Oarlist entrench
ments—Espartcro entered Durango, so long the
head-quarters of Don Carlos, taking 800 prison
ers—and Saarsfield had advanced to a position
which enabled him to keep the main body of the
Carlisls completely in check.
General Iliarle, with another considerable body
of the Christines, was advancing toward the Bas
tan ; and so far as we can judge from the ac
counts, the Carlisls will scarcely be able to pre
vent a junction of the several royalist armies, at
such points and in such number*, as will give
them the command of almost the whole country
hitherto occupied by the rebels.

neighboring towns are expected lo be great suf

Remarks. —We arc hall inclined to believe
with many that the money maiket will gradually
improve now that the election is over and the
whins have succeeded. Why should it not he
so l The electors of this great city were told
before the election that if the Whigs were tnum
I bant and the Van Boren men defeated, the
times would improved, nnd ihnt in place of
distrust, confidence would fin substituted. May
such predictions be fulfilled ! But it is an idle
waste of words for men to talk in ibis way. W hen
whig triumphs and festivals nrc forgotten, men
will return to their scnscs-the Mechanic wil be
as poor as ever, and the Merchant still in debt
beyond his ability to | ay. When the outs are
in, and the. in’s are out, we shall sre what little
dependence is to be placed on political prophecies.
For our part we have been guilty of holding out
no false signs; we took the only honest broad
ground of principle, and plainly told the people
what might be expected from the inordinate am
extravagant dispoaiti .n of speculators. »> c tol
them the evil day was fast approaching when the
golden dreams of these false friends of the people
would vanish into thin air. But let that pass.
• Things must regulate themselves; and no curses,
however loud nnd deep, against the admitiistra
lion, will alleviate the trouble we arc in.

considered a mere drug in the market.*—-Dealers

I absorbed are they in looking to how they shall

' MONEY MARKET.
' Saturday, April 15.
The two revolutions—(lie commercial and po
litical, act and react on each other. Yesterday
many of the stocks advanced slightly, bill if any
’ pe son were to lake that fact as a decided symp
! lorn of a change in the current of events, they
would find ihcmsclvcs before to-morrow most
sadly mi taken. A few stock brokers and weak
operators jump into speculation on the slightest
appearance of change. It is almost impossible
lo hold them hack. On Thursday last, coming
1 from Philadelphia in ihe rail road cars, three for
’ reign merchants in the French dry goods trade
' said to each other, “ Carrajo, amigos, nnd com
binacion, lie." —“ let us lorm a combination lo
1 buy up all the French silk goods in market. They
arc now ch'-aj. They will rise in six weeks. We
wilhnnkejinm cly fortunes by endorsing for each
1 other.” Many other combinations are at this
' moment forming lo speculate in various foreign
articles now falling in price, as well as the stocks.
1 It is pos.-ihle that that Ihe time may conic when
it might be prudent lo enter into such specnla
lations, hut the great reduction of prices has not
1 yet reached its nadir point. The process is going
• on very lapidly. Slocks arc down probably afi
• far as they will go, unless sonic o( them should go
| out of existence altogether. Flour, cotton, and
provisions have to fall full 3(1 per cent. Real
estalc is on the decline. On Wednesday last a
sale was mado by the Bleeckers of some properly
’ out at Union Square. It was a lot 25 by 103,
' situated on the Fourth Avenue, between 17th
1 nnd 19ih .tree's, squinting towards the square.
A few months ago SBOOO had been offered for it.
On Wednesday it sold for $3500, of which
! $3200 remain on mortgage umil 1839. This
indicates Ihe course prices are taking.
Again, the securities of the houses that have
fallen are coming into ihe market. The Josephs
had a loan of $40,000 from a large establishment
1 in Wall street, based on securities in stocks lo
the amount of SOO,OOO ut old price. When the
1 Josephs wore considered the Rothschild* of New
1 York, (poor fellows!) this establishment never
talked of calling in tlie loan. No sooner, how
ever, did the failure take place than they took a
1 now course, and have determined to force their
securities into the market to realise what they
0 will fetch at any sacrifice,
Thislis a sample of many other operations going
on in trade.
The United Slates’ Bank cast differently.
• Pos essing securities to the amount of $300,000
nt’old prices beyond the loans given the Josephs,
! that institution has given assurances that it will
nut force them into the market at the present time
| merely to reimburse itself at the sacrifice of its
creditor.
Yesterday more failures wore announced. A
largo house in Broad street, engaged in the cot
-1 ton trade, and another large house in the dom
-1 estic commission business in Pine street, wer*
both announced, besides many others too small to
' notice.
The revolution is beginning also to spread
around the country. Most disastrous news was
. received yesterday from Pi evidence and Boston.
Several largo manufacturing houses mid estah
bailments in that region have fallen. Wc heard
the names, hut what’s Iho use ol giving names !
The failures which have already taken place in
New York are quite sufficient lo pulldown twice
as many loimd about the country.
Tlie Chelsea Bank, near Boston, has broken
up. That institution had in circulation $102,-
000 «f paper to $ 1100 of specie. If this is a
specimen of many of iho New England hanks,
they nrc as roiten as old horses that have lain in
(lie sun for a week at Ihe close of harvest.
It is feared that the revolusion wijl visit the
great manufacturing system of New England
The great outlet for the ptodiaTions of that dis
trict is New York. Here is the centre of all their
minded operations—the south their maiket, If,
therefore, New York should he broken down, the
manufacturing interest of New England will be
severely affected. The failures of several large
Houses here in the Newark trade, had a prodig- 1
ious effect on that town. Will not the same es- 1
fe'ets follow the same causes in New England.
Then again, it a crash should take place among 1
the New England Manufacturing establishment’* 1
can their hanking establishments sustain Ihe 1
shock?. From the developemenls already made
in Boston, many of these hanks have been con- i
ducted on the most speculative principles—mere i
paper mills lo sustain rollrn houses from tumh- i
ling to pieces. In England, every general distur- i
bonce in the money market shakes to its centre |
the whole manufacturing interest of Manchester.
The New England manufacturing interest has i
been built up on the same principles. A concus- ,
sion in New York, their central marl, and in the |
southern slates, their great market, must in a (
few month*—even weeks—affect them very raa-
tcrially.
Meantime while the revolution is thus rolling
onward and onward, the Wall street bankers are
devising measures of relief, in order to prevent the '
anticipated fresh catastrophe expected by I lie re
turns liorn England in a lew weeks. The Uni- 1
' led States Bank and the other institutions have 1
been compelled lo cease their medicine, from the
depreciation of its value, it is now proposed lo
issue ten millions of bonds, guaranteed by the
slate, and to he loaned on bond and mortgage, in
order to pay our debts in Europe. This is a brok
en staff. She wants the gold now in our hanks
in order lo sustain her own hanking system.
Bonds are of no use.
Besides, the movement rs Ihe Wall street ban- i
kers at the City Hall, is only a miserable effort
to hide their own folly and want of foresight.
Several of the persons engaged in furthering that
projects arc up to the eye lids in real estate specu- i
lalimis. They want to raise money on the crcd
it of the slate, lo keep up the artificial prices of
F real estate, and the existing high rents. What
right have any number of speculators lo ask of
■ the community to sustain the special projects?
i The great reliction must go on, until the prices,
i the values, the systems of 1830 shall have re
! tumed.
l The revolution now going on, is unlike any
, reaction that ever appeared in the United State*.
s j,, every similar ciisis, particular classes and a
few points were alone afflicted. Now the whole
( frame of society, from Maine to Texas, is trob-
I hing and gasping in the throes of a terrible crisis.
• The disorder of the limes has been created hy
I the quackcrv of men in high places—by the ig
-1 n.orance ol the government, and the gross igno
e ranC e of the bankers. All classes have joined in
e the madness —merchants, mechanic*, working
. men. The only remedy applicable to the dis
ease, is the immediate assembling of Congress, 1
to modily and alter Ihe laws affecting commerce,-
so >li At the revolution may he made nsconlurtabi*
is possible. Wo want imqjodiate action on the
tariff, on Iho distribution laws, <m the dvpositc
laws, on the hanking laws, and especially do sue
want a general haukmpl law, so that the ener
gy and skill of Ihe men nose thrown down hy
ihe storm, may not be forever lost to the coun
try, President Van Burcn awake your house
is on lire!
From the Boston Alias.
Nocwithstanding the condition of the Market
in New York, and tlie numerous failures in that
city, and ut Ihe South, we do not apprehend that
any very serious disasters will result from them
to our business community. ‘They are the direct
result in many instances, of the most wild specu
lations—and in many other instances may he tra
ced indirectly to the same cause. The large am
ount of solid capital in this city—the prudent nnd
profitable trade that has been carried on—and,
more particularly, tho great caution with which
our men of business have avoided the specula
tions with which every other section ol the coun
try his run mad—lead us lo indulge the most
flattering hope, that wc shall be able to weather
tlie storm As wc are purchasers and consumers
of Cotton —not itsgrowers or exporters—wc are
not involved in the great losses consequent on its
fall. As real estate has never risen in this cilv
to any very extravagant height, amt as wc have
very little territory to speculate upon, our
zens are not involved in the Citt-Lot «paetfht
tions which have swept away millions on mil
lions for our Now York brethren. Os course
there is a severe pro-sure here—and some fail
ures have orenrred ; hut there appears lo ho no
reason for a general desponeence or panic.
The slate of thin s which now prevails is pre
cisely that which followed the destruction of the
old United States Bank ; when the same unnat
ural expansion of tho currency—and ovcr-issu#
of paper —led lo the same results that wo now
witness. The establishment of the United Stales
Bank soon reduced the currency from $110,000.-
000 lo s4s,ooo,ooo—and tilings resinned their
old f aml regular action. 'lhe colisidcmle and
patriotic statesmen of the Country predicted over
and over again during the win on the Bank, that
tho country would lie iiciileu inio VNimnsAt
HANKUUt’TCT. “HIS HAND MUST HE STATE!)”
—said John Quincy Adams, when the President
was in the very lever nnd madness of his experi
ment—“HlS HAND MUST UE STATED OR THE
nation is undone!” The disastrous conse
quences of tlie destruction of ihe first Bank were
set forth in such a manner hy Mr. Gallatin, that
Mr, Adams observed in his suppressed speech,
that NO MAN WITH ANT PORTION OF MA
LIONITV SHOUT OF THAT OP I'tENi), COIIId
have read his pamphlet and rushed on the
experiment which now distracts nnd convulse*
tho Country. "I voted for the Bill to recharter
the Bank”—said that thoroughly trained states
man—“and deeply lamented, as I still iiekp
lv lament ihe Veto which icjec.lcd its To that

the eUHSES OF THE WIDOW, AND THU HEART
nENUINO CRIES OF THE OIU’HAN.”
No mail can doubt that it is lo the Government
and to tins Government alone that we are to at
tribute the present miserable and appalling condi
tion of our affairs. It is directly owing lo the
blundering and vindictive policy of political
quacks, mountebank* and adventurers—who
have availed themselves of the natural jealousies
of the People—to compass their own elevation at
the cost of the happiness, the security, anil the
prosperity of the Country. It is to the infatuated
blindness—the ignorant madness—the insolent
presumption—of Andrew Jackson and a few
profligate and desperate adventurers —who have
aided and abetted his reckless experiment—
that we arc indebted lor the wide-spread and
hopeless distress in which Ihe whole Country is
pUngcd. Heaven grant that the wrongs otinlie

width; it presents a most desolate appearance, ,
the surface being sterile and without any
vegetation. The valley contains numerous I
skeletons of tnnmalia and birds. In one case
Hie skeleton of a human he ng was seen
wit li the head resting upon tho right hand ; .
according to tradition it is said the neighbor- (
ing tribes were in llie habit of driving their t
criminals in the valley to expiate their crimes. |
Mr LoUdun tried the experiment of lowering ,
some dogs and fowls into the valley, and in ,
every case animation become quickly suspend- ]

receives annually, in ready money, a effin of I
twelve millions of francs. He derives a re- (
venue of perhaps twenty millions more from
the lands, forests and other property of the
crown. He is in the enjoyment ofthe private t

The amount of his private fortune cannot be
less than ten millions of francs per annum. ,

proper to suppress altogether; he had be

National debt of Great Britain. —It
has always been a very hard matte to arrive at
proper nnd accurate knowledge oflhis gigan
tic liability. Politicians, noble lords, and en
lightened statesmen in the legislature of Eng
land. have of.on swelled the amount lo sustain
an hypothesis, or carry on an argument; so
that a deli.ute acquaintance with its details
has been almost an impossibility fur the Amer
ican reader. We believe that the following
account, compiled from several authentic
source*, is unquestionably correct.
When Queen Anno came to the throne, in
1701, the debt was £16,1194,70^
In 1750, 72 178.808
1770. 126,968,267
1790. 228,231,328
1800, 451,699 019
1810, 631369.168
1920. 848,294,804
1825, 843,301.875
—and m 1836, tho interest paid on iho debt
was £28,510,000, which at 8 per cent, gives
the amount of the debt 951,333,333. These
sums, however, are nut real, hut fictitious.—*
When the minister wished a loan, lie had on
ly to ask—what sum of money will you give
, me for £3 per annum interest? Tin- capital
ist then made Ins offer,--one, rcglVht|cd in
some measure by the price of stocks. T’bus
in 1830, the government borrowed eighteen
millions sterling, for which it gave scrip lor
£29,880,000, —or a trifle over tliree-filllis of
one hundred money for one ImtMred stock,—
being an interest a little under live per cent,
per annum. Suppose the interest to be at our
legal rale of six percent; then the British
debt would he precisely £175,000,0(30 Hence
the financial writers of England estimate ds
deal amount to he 5,00,000,000. In 1833, I lie
income ofgreat. Br tain was estimated at seven
hundred and filly millions sterling; an income
tax, therefore, of seven and a half per cent,
per nnimm, would pay off the debt in ten
years, if that operation should be doutned de
sirable.
The lowest, ra'O at which three per cent
stock has over sold, was forty eight per cent;
which gave an inlorest of£o for £00 —being
a shade over 0 pur cent. The present price
is about £OO. making the interest 3 1-10 per
cent: say sixty-two shilling* for one hundred
pounds sterling They have been sold ut
00, which gave a' mere trifle over three per
i cu. interest. It thus appoint llt.il £4B is
Ihe lowest, and £9O the highest price at
which the stocks have been sold; so that
iho average ia £72 for 100 of stock. It is
proper lo observe, however, that this only
shows the price on ’Change, and not that at
which the loans have been negotiated by gov
ernment.

Chicago, (III.,) 1830.
Well, wo have arrived at this pin e, or
city that is lo bo. This nest of emigrants,
merchants, ami speculators, where neatly all
the Western towns tiro hatched, and from
which their brood migrate to every pin ol
the Union, in Ihe shape of town and village
lots. Men make fortunes here in less time
than I could box the compass. 1 suy men,
for there is a melancholy disproportion ol’imm
hers between the sexes; and I believe the
most sanguine advocates of the destined great
ness of Chicago, build llioir hopes of an in
crease of population less upon the principles
of Miillhus, limn they do upon cm gralioti.
His system is altogether too slow in ns ope
ration for the growth of the fur West.
I can assure the Eastern lade*, howivcr,
that they wil: not be “ a Who in thuiT glory,"
for llufre is a small el (proof refined f mile
■ spciely ho c ehnoLto any in Iho United Nin e*;
‘njnt it-iSsflT.iHrWnldros Jijf.wfiinen are in
J ii. and here—for such ihejiiarkol isasurc duo.
I understand when the sieiwnbjaals arrive from
Buffalo and Detroit, that nearly all business
is suspended ; and crowds ol desolate, rich
young bachelors flock lo the pier, and stand
ready to catch the girls as they land. Whe
ther they nsa the lasso, nn accomplishment
which some of litem have acquired in catching
ponies on the Rocky Mountains, or whether
take them by the force of smiles I am not the
informed ; having just arrived 1 cannot speak
from .observation, but 1 believe lire result lo
he a pretty universal surrender.
it is two days since we arrived in Chicago,
and I am now silting hy a window in the
Lake House, (nn establishment equal to the
City Hotel of New York,) overooking this
town, this creation of a oay I on tlie hanks
of Ihe Great Michigan Sea. It has hoen the
marvel of the East and West, the North and
the South, yet Us rapid growth is Ihe result
of the most ordinary causes. Tlie every day
observation ol any man of sense will expla n
the reason why a point like this, situated at
the head ol such a vast chain of lakes, should
grow with tho increase ol the commerce upon
ther waters.
It is the first place we have visited which
is entirely too small lo hold its inhabitants.
There are scarcely any Mechanics or that
class of people whom we call operative*,
nnd who are wanted here in great numbers lo
build habitations fur the growth of tlie place,
which 1 believe only date* it* existence back
about three or four years, and is said to num
ber near six thousand.
Taking into consideration tbe fact that
there are very few women or children, it has
the moral Ibrce of ordinary towns of twelve
or fifteen thousand. Your refinement in poli.
lies, the Loco Foco doctrine* have not taken
root here yet.
But all these calculations and statistics of
the growth of towns are out of my line of
general thoughts and observation, but I would
redeem my promise to write you from this
place, of lute so prominent in the public mind
and which lo my lasio is damned with all the
artificial comforts and appetites of over civi
h*ed life. Patching up friendships or rather
h ffdin r them together, by the exchange of
cards,"dinner parties, a world of outward
show for effect, traffic and speculation, in
fact all the humbug and frippery of an Eastern
city.
1 abhor the whole of them, and must gel
out of I hi* place.—We have travcl'o.l about
two thousand miles lo enjoy the beauties of
nature, wild as she came trom llie hand of her
maker, and what fellowship can wc have with
things here; we came lo ses a class of our
own species, who, after having thrown off the
gauze of society, were luxuriating in the man
ly sports of a hardy frontier life.
Harry says, let us order horses at once nnd
armed with our guns, push our course lor the
West, and when we find it. we will then make
an expedition to the Far West. Every rhing
here looks as it we could not be more than a
day’s journey from tbe Atlantic cities, where
politics, religion, ami friendship, are all fancy
articles, subject lo the fashions of the day
Harry insists upon my abusing this place, be
cause he has been annoyed by the attentions
of some c vil friends, who have consumed
nearly all his time, woile he was consuming a
couple of their dinner*; but J have thus far;
luckily escaped, and fell disposed to extend:
the some civil Lea in return.
I leave you speculators, you people who cut ■
and carve all God’* fair creation up into town '
Jots, os one would cut up a turkey, to prairo j
every little town and village, for fluffing is !
: Mic : r biisincs';—thivr trade,• hut my convic

growth of Chicago arc overwhelming, it must
lie the key trom the Lakes lo Hie Mueissippi
t Valley, and the largest town in the West;
l nothing can Hike from it ta geographical po
- sttiott, its importance at the head of ilie lake
. navigation.
VVc shall be off 10-tmrrow, towards the set
i ling son, and if we see anything woith abns

( P. S.—Harry is now suffering under tbe
: effect ofliis dinner parries ; he there caitgli'
; the disease of speculation, which I fear #ili
, terminate in u collapse of his Dockets before
