STILL LATER FROM EUROPE. : V By the Roscoe, Capt. Delano, from Liverpool. London and Liverpool dates have been received at New York to the 241 h June. The English papers contain little or no news of importance, being principally fdled with accounts of the King’s death, and the accession of the new Queen, an ’account of which, and the most important items 'ot news, will he found in another column. i. • ~. , i,; As we anticipated, Gen. Clinch has, by his manly defence against the charges of the Secre tary of War, brought down upon himself the ma ledictions and vituperations of the whole legion ~ of the pensioned partisans of the government, who have since the reign of the “old Roman,” , been quartered in the Territory of Florida and fed ,by government bounty, Gen. Call, the renown £cd commandct-in-chief of the Florida militia, who so gallanily distinguished himself nt the bat "tle of the Wilhlacoochce, occupies full ten col umns of the last Tallahassee Floridian, in endea voring to convince the world that he is a most sa gacious general,and that Gen. Clinch is any thing but a soldier and gentleman. However success v -ful Gen. Call may be in vindicating his own con ‘duct, and in destroying the well earned reputa tion of Gen. Clinch, in Florida, of this fact he may * rest assured: neither himself, with all the certifi cates ho can bring to back him, nor the Secretary • of War, nor the government itself, can alter the opinion cntorcaincd-for Gen. Clinch by the peo ple of Georgia, many of whom have witnessed 100 many proofs of his galantry and devotion to coun try, to allow the calumnies of faction to sully his •reputation in tlu ir regard. Gen. Clinch has been grossly misused by the government, and has had much to contend with. He has effectually turned aside the calumnies of the Secretary of War, and we apprehend, that should he deign to notice the ti rade of the long-would-bc-Delegatc, he would find even less difficulty in disposing of him and his ccr ) tificates than he did in refuting the charges of the Secretary. We had hoped to see one Gen. nt least escape the abuse of the Florida press, but wo have been disappointed. Even Gen. Clinch is now traduced and reviled by those for whose safety and pro tection he patiently endured hardship and gal lantly braved danger, Bennett of Hie N. Y. Herald has the following •paragraph in his synopsis of English news.— “A singular report prevailed at Portsmouth. It was that Mr. Van Huron, President of the United States, had made proposals of marriage to Vic toria, the new Queen of England, through his ’Minster, Mr. Stevenson. Mr. Van Bureti, is rath er 100 slow on the trigger lor that matter.” We would recommend Matty to doll - those ■claret colored whiskers of his and wear a wig, if ho would hope to unite the ancient house of Kin- Vk-rhook with that ot the Royal Hanover. [IIOMMUNICATED.] Mir. Enrrou—As the word “Pioneer,” fre •qucntly occurs in reports of festive speeches, toasts, boat names, &c., these days, permit me to trouble you with its definition as found in one or two authors, the first is from Walker’s, the ■second from Bailey’s Dictionary, and the third the gloparial note of a commentator of Shaks peare on the word as used by Othello, 3d scene, 3d act. B. Pioneer —One whoso business is to level roads, throw up works, or sink mines, in milita try operations. Pioneer —A laborer taken up for the service of an army, to level ways, cut up trenches, and un s dermine forts. “Pioneers were generally degraded soldiers.” From the Charleston Mercury July 2? FROM FLORIDA. By the schr. Medium, Capt. Mabee, Jr. arrived •yesterday, we have received the St. Augustine Herald, of the 22d last from which we copy the following:— Ait.nr movements. —Major Gen Jessup, who ! has been detained in ibis city lor a few days past on account of ill health, left here on Saturday morning, in the Steam boat Chaileston, for Black • Creek. He had made a call upon our Executive; •for ft force of tuen; and during his slay • here, he was busily engaged in organizing • mounted infantry companies, for the protection of the fiontier settlements, and for active duty in fthc field. It is the inlention of Gctj Jessup, as we learn > from a source entitled to crept to embrace with out further delay, every favorable opportunity to fibring t.ie Seminoles to unconffiional submission, v, and he will, we further learn, rsquiro every soj .dier to be in readiness to march, a t a moment’s • warning to any point whore he itUy deem it ne . ■ cossary to strike a blow durng the Simmer.

Tboubi.es among the Potto watt amies. —• The Boonville (Missouri) Herald, of Jnne 24, says there is little doubt that the treaty with these Indians, now located on the Pirate Rivei, will have to be enforced vi el nrmis. The tribe are quarrelling and cutting each other’s throats in drunken frolics from whiskey, smuggled among •them by speculating whites. The life of Mr. (Davis, Indian agent, has been assailed. The In dians swear like '.he Seminoles of Florida, they will die on the graves of their lathers. The above is one among the many notorious instances of the practices of the whites. How many millions has it cost the United States to - suppress Indian disturbances, caused by the in troduction of whiskey among them.—-V. Y. Eve yling Post. The American “Romans.”—The Globe, in noticing Judge Smith’s bombastic reasons for not accepting Mr. Van Burcn’s appointment to live office of Judge of the United States Supreme Court, calls him “the noblest Roman of them all” They are a queer set of Romans truly; of which Judge Smith is noblest. There is Smith, the “noblest,” Jackson, the “Old Roman,” Benton the “Cravat Roman,” Whitnei, the “Canada Roman.” Kkxhali., the ‘'Heaven B irn Roman.” Blaik, t'le “Cadaverous Roman,’’Joimsojr, the “Coloured Roman," Rrrcuix, the “Granny Ro man,” and \ an Bunas, (he “all sorts of a Ro man.” What a nlialnnx of Romans! —Mob Adv. Black Flt. —Crow a tiushet ot Uiy ashes lu the acre on your turnip field, as well as all other vegetables ol the same class, while the dew is on (or are moist) when they are two or three days old, and it will preserve them against the small black fly ; should there come rain to wash it oft' immediately, repeat it, the ashes also highly ben eficial to promote the growth of the young plant. Often times the black lly will take every vestige from the fields, and lead a person, who did not see his field during the first few days, to believe the field bad, and attribute the evil to that cause. Many farmers are well acquainted with the above facts, but they are notgenerttlly known—and this may be of service.—T. Farmer. Wo learn that the Steamboat Alabamian, reached Mobile yesterday morning from Mont gomery—having among her passengers, Ttis-ke nngg-e, his family and thirty-five other Creeks. They are on their way to join the emigrating In dians now at Pass Christian. The chief and several of his sons acted as our friends in the last summer’s campaign. His family is said to con sist of two wives and twelve children. —Mobile Chronicle July 27. From the A Y Morning Herald July 25. FIVE DAYS LATER FROM EMGLAND. The London money market, on the 16th, was steady. Prices had not varied any. Consols closed at 61j a ] —United States post notes, 93 a 91. The north of Ireland Banks have given a guar antee to the Bank of England for 500,000 ster ling. Tke house of Browns, Brothers; & Co. had received the requisite aid from the Bank of En gland. The time and amount will carry them through. More failures have taken place. The house of Fishers & Brothers broke on the 17th, at Liverpool. There is a proposition before the Bank of Eng land to advance funds to retrieve the three prin cipal American houses, Wilson, Wilde and Wig gins. This idea has been produced by the plcn tiness of money. The North America was detained to bring out the news of the proposition before the Bank of England to sustain the Messrs. Browns. The honorable Mr. Dallas, Minister from this country to Russia, had arrived at Portsmouth, and was to sail for St. Petersburg!! in a few days.— There goes §IB,OOO fur a year. From the N. i . Evening Slur. July 25. STILL LATER FROM ENGLAND By the Koscoe, Capt. Delano, from Liverpool, we have received our files to the 24th. The pa pers are filled with various accounts relative to the death of the King, and the measures to be pur sued hereafter. From our Liverpool Special Correspondent. DEATH OF THE KING OF ENGLAND. The Melancholy forebodings of my late letters have been fulfilled. William the Fourth is no more. This event, not expected but deeply lamented, took place on Tuesday, June 20, at half past B, A. M. He breathed his last with his head sup ported in the arms of Queen Adelaide, now Queen Dowager. Ho attained what may be called “a good obi age” being within two months of 73. His reign extended to seven years, all but 6 days, his ascen sion to the crown having taken place on dime 20. Very seldom has the death of a King excited more regret than that of William IV. He was a man of easy access, good natured mind, and warm feelings. To his family he was affec tionate, and to his friends he was attached. At the present crisis, when England suffers from po litical as well as commercial embarrassments, his death is viewed with yet severer sorrow,from life uncertainty how his youthful successor may act. So much depends upon her line of conduct, that we fear she may be led aside to sacrifice prin ciple to popularity—and, at the commencemeudof Her reign, make some false steps in politics, which she may not easily recover. How true, at a time like this, appears the say ing of the Roman poet, “Pallida mors oequo pulsat pede passperUm ta bernas Regumque turres.” Immediately on the King’s death, an express was sent to London with the intelligence. The Archbishop of Canterbury and the Chamberlain, (Marquis of Cotiyham) speeded, to Kensington to announce it to the Princess Victoria and the Du chess of Kent. The news was nut unexpected by them. A messenger was at once sent to Lord Mel bourne commanding him to an audience witii Queen Victoria at 9A. M. At 11 a Privy Coun cil was held at Kensington, attended by the Min istry and Privy Counsellors of all parlies in the state. The Princess and her mother were pres ent, and the young queen took the usual oaths. The cabinet ministers, kneeling before her, swore allegiance and supremacy, This the other privy counsellors did also, Then the Ministry ed the seals of office, which the Queen returned to them. A Proclamation of Victoria as Queen was agreed to and signed by all piescnt. The Dukes of Cumberland and Sussex, her uncles, signed it first. It was remarked that she appear ed to recognize no one except her uncles. The manner of her bearing was dignified. She was very plainly dressed ; a plain black lutestring, white cape and crape scarf. From die Commercial Advertiser, July 25. YET LATER FROM ENGLAND. By the packet ship Koscoe, Captain Delano, from Liverpool, whence she sailed on the 24th of June, we have a Liverpool paper of that date. It contains very full accounts of the ceremonies at tendant upon the proclamation of Queen Victo ria. We have also, through the kindness of Mes srs. Grinnell, Minturn & Co., a London Times of the 33d June. Her majesty’s first court was held at Kensign ton palace, on the day of the late king’s death: and was attended by more than a hundred of his lato majority's privy council, and by the lord may or and a deputation from the city. A privy conn cil was held, at which most of the privy council lors were re-sworn. The members of lhero)nl family, the archbish ops, and the other .privy councillors, afterward signed the proclamation. The Queen gave audience, on the same day, to Lord Melbourne. The following declaration was issued. At the Court of Kensington, the 30lh day of June, 1837, present the queen’s most excellent ma jesty in council. Her Majesty being this day present in council, was pleased to make the following declaration, viz: The severe and afflicting loss which the nation kas sustained by lire death of his majesty, my be b'vcd uncle, has devolved upon me the duty of Int of this empire, nposed upon mo so riod of my life, that pressed by the bur he hope that Divine ■d me to this work, performance of it, mrity of my inten rublic welfare, that rhich usually belong longer experience, pen the wisdom of nyalty and affection ro a peculiar advan cign whose constant rties ofhis subjects, the melioration of ' the country, have of general attach er the tender and cn fectionate mother, I f to respect and love •countrv. Il will be my unceasing study to maintain the 0 reformed religion as by law established, securing • at the same lime to all the fjil enjoyment of re • ligious Itherty, and I shall steadily protect the rights and promote, to the utmost of my power r the happiness and welfare ot all classes of my r subjects. Whereupon the lords of the council made it their ! hunihle request to her Majesty, that her Majes -1 ly.’s most gracious declaration to their lordships f might be made public which her Majesty was pleased to order accordingly. f,\G. GREVILLE. ■ The Duke of Cumberland, now become King of Hanover, (the saliquc law prevailing in that ■ part of the British king’s dominions) proceeded to Kensington palace, in lire course of the morn i ing, to attend the council, and was hooted by tVto people on his return. Ho whs the first to take the oath of allegiance to the Queen his niece. The proclamation was made on Wednesday, . the 21st. The queen was loudly cheered by the populace, when she presented herself, in tnuorn ing, at the windows of the presence chamber of St. James’s palace. The Queen has dropped lier first name Alexandrine, and will use the signature of Victoria, merely. The funeral of the King was to lake place on Thursday, the Glh of July. A post mortem ex amination was made; the symptoms were of dropsy in the chest and enlargement of the heart. In the House of Lords on the 22d a message from the Queen was read by the Lord Chancel • lor. It was short, and merely stated, after a brief allusion to the death of the King, that the slate of the public business and the period of the ses sion, considered in connexion with the duty im posed upon her by law, of summoning a new parliament within six months, made it inexpedi ent to recommend any new measures for adoption by the House of Commons, except such as should he necessary for carrying on the public business during the interval between the sessions. A mes sage in reply was agreed to, and also one of con ! dolenco to the Queen-dowager. • The same proceedings took place in the other house. The conservative papers speak very confident ly as to the line of conduct to he expected from the Queen. The Times rejoices “that symptoms of a high-minded and courageous nature iu the young sovereign have already exhibited ihcm selves, affording hope of sagacity to penetrate,and firmness to defeat, the schemes of the enemies to her throne and country”—That is, the whigs. ; The Times says very little about money inat -1 ters, remarking that all public interest is engross ' od by the death of the king, the accession of the queen, the ceremonies consequent thereupon, and the political probabilities of the day. Letters to commercial houses in this city slate that trade is improving, and confidence increas ing fast. The packet Columbus arrived at Liver . pool on the 20th. In the Houses of Commons, on Wednesday tire 22d, Sir G. Grey staled in answer to a ques tion, that Ins late majesty had sanctioned an act passed tty the Parliament of Upper Canada, to j continue the existence of the House of Assembly, notwithstanding the demise of the crown. Mr. Forrest was married on thn 23d of June, in London, to Miss Catherine Sinclair. Another child-murder took place at Ripon, on the Kith of June. The father, named Marshall, aged 32 years, in a fit of desperation or frenzy, plunged his two children into a tub of water, and anil held them there until they were dead. One was a bay of eight years, (lac other a girl of eight months. Ho then placed them on a bed, and gave the alarm himself. AmkhiCan Stocks, June, 22—Mississippi 0 percents 1861, GA-71.

Fellow Citizens.—ln every age nations have had their festivals. Some have been institu ted in commemoration of great achievements or signal exhibitions of individual patriotism; ma ny to mark the birth day of a patron saint and not a few to instruct the world that on that day some petty scion of Royalty was horn. Thjs day we claim fur our national festival, and hail it as the birth day of 15 millions of Free men. Its impor tance claims our attention whether wc regard its results to ourselves or the mighty influence it has exercised and still exercises, over the commercial and political relations existing among the great family of nations throughout the world. The individual freedom wo possess, the national prosperity we have enjoyed, result from the reso lutions adopted by the heroes of ’7O, which on this day in that year they first proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence, to an astonished world. The vassals ofElirbpe were amazed that Colonies, (a term denoting weakness and imply ing oppression,) with only three millions of in , habitants, distracted among themselves by inlcr • nal divisions, without pecuniary resources, and ! totally unprovided with the muniiiona of war; , but “ appealing to the Supremo Judge of the ■ world for the rectitude of their intentions,” and • “with a firm reliance on Divine Providence, ; pledging to each other, their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor,” should have dared to . stand up in so unequal a contest, measuring wea t pons wilh the acknowledged mistress of the • Seas. j- The deep responsibility assumed by the sign i ers of that Declaration made with haliers about - their necks, the mighty resolution to achieve the 1 freedom of these Slates, and leave it a perpetual p legacy to their sons, offer a subject of moral sub e iimily, worthy the talents and the genius of an . It has been improved, and this scene por trayed, by the pencil of a native American, in j living colors and upon living canvass, now adorns „ the marble columns of your Legislative hall, ever to inspire your Representatives with a firm reso- | loTion to maintain what their s res so nobly re | solved, an I so gioricu-lv achieved. At length the former Monarch of these realms, exhausted by I his mighty hut fruitless efforts in this contest with Freemen, humbled in spirit by his numerous de feats, and his bankrupt treasury, (not icstorcd even to this day) was compelled !,. accede to the resolutions of’76 and acknowledge the Freedom, Sovereignty and Independence of these States. Towards the close of this contest we derived aid of men and money from Fi ance, a nation who for centuries had been governed by the. Despotism of a single ruler, and who foil little of that spirit of Freedom and independence that has evordis: tinguished the Anglo Saxon race. Frenchmen mingled with us at the siege of Savannah, and elsewhere, they imbibed tho spirit of Freedom that prevaded the American] people at that day, and carried back with them tho sparks that illum ed the embers of Gallic Liberty, smothered since the days of Cresar’s invasion. Tho eruption of a volcanoe was not more end Jon nor its effects more tremendous. Tho gorgeous pageantry of kings, the royal prerogatives of centuries, the reverence and emoluments paid to a wicked and licentious priesthood, work all like the smoking flax consumed in its devouring flames. Humani ty sickened at many a scene,piety wept over many an impious sacrifice,and Liberty herself turning in disgust from her false worshippers, winged her flight from a land stained with the blood of inno cence, and pointed by anarchy, atheism, and eve ty species of crime. The fires of this volcanoe arc again smothered or extinguished—the molten lava no longer streams in threatening torrents down its sides. The silence of despotism again lords it over the scene. Wo may now approach tho crater and discover that these convulsions have thrown to the surface many veins of pure and precious metal and that its scattered embers arc enriching many fields where tho Tree of Li. herly, transplanted from our soul is again taking root. European vassals shall repose iu its shade —The oppressed [of all climes shall eat of ils fruit and call us blessed. So then whether wc regard the effects of these resolutions upon ourselves or upon the world at large they arc alike entitled lo our regatd and attention. Moreover the friends of Freedom and of the equal rights of man in Europe, attribute the suc cess of tho reformation now progressing on that continent, Ameliorating the political condition of the subject,—to the influence of our example. They feel a deep and lively solicitude in the suc cess and permanency of our institutions as likely lo prove if man be capable of self Government, and so influence the political condition and hap piness of the whole human race. ! boast not o! political philanthropy so universal as was once professed by a Union man on this floor, I am free to acknowledge that tho freedom and tho happi ness of my self and the community in which 1 live have been and ever will ho tho object of my mote immediate concern, yet there is no good man hut must rejoice in believing that in effect ing objects so desirable in themselves am! to him, he will at the same time bo instrumental in con fciiug the like happiness on the whole human race; in circumscribing and limiting the power of those intrusted wilh authoiity in extending the political privileges ol the many and in admitting all to a free and equal participadon of those political rights to which nature and nature's god entitle litem. These reflections are well calculated to im press on our minds the deep responsibility that Providence in his infinite wisdom and goodness lias imposed on us, as the only recipients of Freedom on earth. The use or the abuse we may make of those privileges will influence not only our own destiny, hut that of millions yet un born. How necessary then that every member of tho community should instruct himself in the nature of his Government, the limits that have been prescribed tp those entrusted with authority, the rights that inalienably belong to tho States, and tlie People; that lie may be the belter enabled te discern the first encroachments ofarl ilary pow cr.tostay their progress & to maintain the rights and privileges bequeathed him by an heroic ances try, and thus hand them down unimpaired to his latest posterity. We know not which most to admire in tho heroes of’7o, their heroism in the field, or their wisdom in council. No sooner had, “Grim visaged war smoothed his wrinkled front,” Ilian they were summoned from War’s alarms, from the noise and hustle of the camp to the deep , and silent meditations of tho midnight council. Tlie-re after much discussion anil due deliberation upon the nature & fortnjof the Government,best adapt ed lo promote tho happiness and ensure the bles sings of Liberty to tins People they framed the present constitution and sent it forth lo tho Stale conventions for their adoption. There again its provisions underwent discus sion and close scrutiny, and though violently op posed by a few of tho best and staunchest whigs of the land, it was finally adopted, with some few amendments, ami is now, or should be, the go vernment under which wc live. This constitu tion should he the catechism of Youl'a, and tho study ol age; for the more it is studied and the belter understood, the more will wc lie con vinced of the political wisdom and foresight of the sages of’76. All powers that by experience have been found necessary for a wholesome ad ministration of the government, a re there express ly delegated. All the dissatisfaction that lias been produced in these Stales by the legislation of Congress, lias originated from thn exercise of powers not delegated, hut which have been as sumed by construction. Every tiling at the time was done that patriotism, and the roost jealous regard for the liberty of the citizen could devise, to limit and chain down the power of those here after to be entrusted wilh authority. But power begets power, and it is a law of our nature that the crcaluro should ever war with its creator. In so siiort a period as ten or twelve years, wc find this new government regardless of ils creation, forgetting it was but the agent of the Stales and people, assume the bearing of master, and pro mulgate its edicts, in the shape of the Alien and Sedition laws. The history of these early as sumptions of power by Congress, unauthorized by the constitution, you have heard eloquently read to you to-day. They require no farther ex planation. These acts of usurpation by Congress aroused tho spirit of ’76, still alive in the land, and we hear them declare that they will not sub mit to the unauthorized legislation of any govern ment on earth. Nay, not even that of the go vernment of their own choice. That when ( ’-in gress abuses powers delegated, a change of re presentatives is the remedy; hut when Congress '- assumes powers not delegated, a nullification ol t the act hy these sovereignties, the States, is the f rightful remedy. A Such was the language of tho freemen of ’7O '• 1!1 1860, when the freedom of speech and of the J Picss was invaded. In 1833, when Congress n determined to adhere lo the power of regulating , and controlling the labor of freemen, u power which site had usurped and exercised since 1816. I in defiance ol llte reiterated petitions, and the fin; I > remonstrance oi some of the States agrieved—a i right as estimable to the citizen as tho freedom of t speech or the press—many of my fellow citizens of die Union parly considered the same language i too bold, too unrourtoous, fi,r tho cars of go- I vernment; in short, that it was treason. But ma i ny ol you now present, inheriting the spirit of ’76 , from your sires, proclaimed the same language ■ from the house top—yea, yon inscribed on your i banners, and fearlessly gave them lo the breeze. F Some of the eastern Slates considered these re solutions of Virginia and Kentucky treasonable, at that day, and already advocated the doctrine of passive obedience to Congress, and tile govern ment. The people, however, sustained tho reso lutions, and promoted their authors to the highest ■ office in tho government. From that time down lo tile full of Andrew the Firsl, they were al ways considered as the text hook of the republi can parly of tho United Slates. Tho administra tions of these men were strictly republican.— They carried us triumphantly through the second waroflndeponder.ee. Tho Star Spangled Ban ner waved in triumph both on sea and on land, and peace left them in the entire confidence of the people. Tho opposition, tho friends of a strong government, the advocates of passive obe dience lo Congress, the rovilers of Jefferson and democracy, a party engendered ip the convention that framed the constitution, and who had waged an incessant and bitter opposition to tins republi can party, even when our soil sacred to freedom was invaded by the myrmtdoms of Britain, now grounded their arms of opposition and exclaimed, from one end of (lie republic lo the other, “wc are ail federalists, wc arc all republicans.” As Mr Adams expresses, “if wc cannot alter things - we’ll change their names, sir.” Mr. Monroe, a republican President, no doubt with good intentions, hut in an evil hour, met the ' advance, and associated in Ins administration, some of these new converts to democracy, since known as Union Democratic Jeffersonian, Ace. Republicans. At the expiration of ins term we I behold them installed in office, and federalism, . except in name, again in tho ascendant. An in- J crease of the tariff, a more splendid system of in- j ternal improvement, Panama missions, light hou ses in the skies; and mi increase of the ordinary expenses of the government to tho enormous amount Pf 12 millions of dollars, were tile first fruits of federal republicanism. Thejeld rcpulili- I cans became alarmed, they shouted for the rescue, „ thu people answered the call, and a Tennessee 1 farmer, who had seen mucli service, and earned a much glory for himself and country, was called j lo preside over the destinies of lids nation. He , had been advocated as tire man who would re" • fitnu ils abuses, expel corruption, and restore the J government to tho economy and republican sim plicity of the Jeffersonian administration. In t,lio canvass that placed him in the presidential chair, the south took an aclive part, and especially our | sister Slate, South Carolina, l Tho tendency of our government to consolida ' lion had rapidly increased within a few years,and many of our wisest and best statesmen trembled fertile safely and permanency of our republican institutions. To convince Union men [should v i there lie any present) that such was the fact, I i will trespass so far on your time and patience, us ' i 10 read to you tmo short extracts from letters ol Mr. Jefferson, written nboitt that, time in confi dence to ids friends.
