Shkrxikghah , hear Lowestoffb . —The / ollowteg is an extract of a letter received yesterday , dated Oct . 19 : — "I regret to inform you we witnessed the Joss of the Emily , of and from Qoole , Mr . W . Calvereon , master , tftU" morning , about two o'clock , opposite the Coast-guard station at' Weybourne , during the storm . Directly she struck , the crew flaw to the rigging , where they remained till five o'clock , when the Coast-guard succeeded in effecting a communication with the wreck by means of a line rope previously conveyed on board by meanB ef Dennett ' s Rocket , thus enabling them to launch a boat , and save the master and Borne of the crew , bnt two poor fellows , named John Oaborae and Thomas Jackson , were drowned . The vessel , which is laden wilh wheat , will become a perfect wreck .
Fbom BiDEFOfcD the accounts are of a meat painfnl description , several ships having been lost during the storm , and whi * h we , regret to state , were attended by a lamentable loss of life . As at other ports , the wind Hew fearfully from N . W , to NN . B-, and at about three o'clock in the afternoon of Wednesday last , the weH-known brig Ganges , Oapt Owen , of the port of Snnflerland , was blown to the north part of the Bideford Sir , and , no doubt , before this , has gone to pieces . Immediately on the vessel striking , the crew took to the main-lopi the heavy snrf sweeping the decks fore and aft , when the life-boat was put off , in order to take the poor creatures from the dreadful ¦ itnation in which they were . Owing , however , to the boisterous state of the weather , the boat coold not
make the least way , and , accordingly , the attempt failed . By the next rooming , all ; imagined that they must have perished , but -some surprise may be conceived , when the crew were still noticed dinging to the ringing , having remained in that position throughout the whole night , amidst the violence of the storm . The life-boat was again launched , and through the humane and almost superhuman efforts cf the coast-guard , the crew of the brig Were at last taken from the rigging , and landed in safety at tkis port . A short time before the -a reck occurred , a vessel , apparently a schooner , was seat to go down about half a mile from the shore , and from the fact that tie new have not since been seen or heard of , it is presumed that they must have perished with her . A boat hat since been washed on shore , with the name painted "Harry Bluff , of Berkley , P . G . T . Miller , master , and it is considered that she
belonged to the unfortunate vessel . Another shocking shipwreck happened during the storm near this place , a brig , supposed to be the Biucher , of Gloucester , went down off the harbour with every one of the hands , whose bodies aa yet have not been found , and a fishing boat , belonging to Clovelly , whilst lying at fcer nets , herring fishing , was driven on the Pv-ppercombe rocks , and lost . Her captain , Mr . Binnan , and a man named Johnson , were drowned with her . The Eliza , laden with cosls , from Wales to Cork , -was totally wrecked in CroyS Bay , near this port , but fortunately the whole of the crew -were saved . Knrobrxs of other vessels have been driven on to the sands and rocks , and throughout the whole of the neighbourhood the most painful sensation has been created in the minds of the inhabitants , from the melancholy and disastrous results of the late hurricane .
Ahotheb Wbeck . —A correspondent informs us ot the shipwreck of th * Mary Anne , of Arbroath , abeut six miles from I flay , on Wednesday night last , with the loss of all hands on board , except a young seaman , named John Purvis . She sailed last from Newcastle for Strantf-Td Longh , on Tuesday week , with a cargo of ninety-five tons of wheat . Besides t&e Captain , whose name was David Cargill , her crew comisted of five sailers , one of them a boy . The Mary Ann foundered off the Buns of Islay . When the Captain and crew discovered that the pumps were quite choked , and the vessel was going dons , they took to the boat , and- endeavoured first to i eae i Islay , but failed , the wind blowing ftonv the X-E . They then made for the Mull of Kintyre , but failing in this attempt also , they
stood before the wind , and before daylight were , as they thought , off Portrusb , and made tor the Ballyacb ron Strand , near Portstewaxt , when they got among the breakers and the boat was npset , and five . of the six individuals on board net a watery grave . The names of those who were drewned were—D&vid Cargill , the captain and owner , an old am , about 70 years of age ; Peter Gargill , his son , abont 22 years of age ; Alexander Stephens , son-in-law of the captain , aged 44 , who fcaa left a widow and five children ; George Shanks , and Charles Dake . None of the bodies were washed ashore except that of the captain , oh which an inquest was held on Thursday , when the facts above related were elidted . John Purvis , the only survivor , is unmarried . He is 21 years of age , and is a smart , intelligent young man .
Mobb Disasters . —Cbones Oct . 18 . —This morning , at abont one o ' clock , a gale suddenly rose , and at two it increased to a perfect hurricane . In the afternoon of yesterday , as the weather was excedingly fine and calm , a number of fishing-boats , each containing a crew of four or five men , left Cromer in search of fish , and , as the elements were highly favourable , there is no doubt they went off to a great distance , for in such eases they often push their voyage to an extent of forty or fifty miles . Many of these boats are open and undecked , and not more than twenty feet long , and the largest afford but very slight protection against the weather or other casualitifs . This morning none of the number that went oat were in sight , and , up to the present hour , two o ' clock p . m . nothing has been seen or heard of them . There is ona melancholy
exceptiona boat which contained five men has been washed ashore at Baston , near Minsley ; one body only has been found , and there is not the least ^ oubt but that the whole crew have found a watery grave . One poor fellow has left a wife and six young children . It is difficult to -ascertain the number of boats absent , but it is commonly said about twelve or fourteen . Their fate is , of course , doubtful , bnt "very serious apprehensions are entertained on account of them . Borne vessels are in sight , and one , apparently a large brig , has a signal ef distress ( a flag in her main rigging ) flying . Messengers are sent out along the coast , and it 1 b feared dreadful accounts will be brought in in the morning . A vessel , the Friendship , from Goole , laden with chalk , has also come ashore at the same place , with a similar kind of craft called a billy bnoy , which is run ashore , and the mate , a Cromer man . lost his life .
Loss op the Amphitbite . —By the arrival of her Majesty's sloop Fantome at Portsmouth on Monday last , information had been received of the total loss of the British brig Amphitrite , Commander Mr . H . Wills , on the 21 st of July , eff the island of Lobasqere , rear Monte Tideo , full particulars ef which will be found in the subjoined abridgment of the Captain ' s statement relative to her loss . Abont noon on the 20 th of July she was tlose into . Cape St Mary's , on the look out for a pilot , but none . appearing , and there , being a Jigbt easterly wind , she continued her course , and at mid-day on the 2 lst she was off the above island . The wind afterwards increased wUh great violence , and a heavy shower of hail andain began to fall , and there being no pilot to be seen « n the station all her sail was shortened , and she hove to abont two o ' clock in the afternoon , -with her head to the southward , the weather being at that time very thick , and several high breakers to
near her . She , however , still made way , althongh ? ery little , going afctha early ^> arfc of the evening at not more than two knots an hour . At eight o ' clock the weather . had become exceedingly misty , so much bo ¥ * m _ toe ship * * length ooold MareelT . be discerned , and every precaution -was adopted ia ordiv to prevent aed-W * a mw bemg eoBst « ntly at her mwt head , and the ^ dkept gotog .

Awful Destitution . —Poverty and even want prevails to a frightful extent in Paris at present . The number of poor reeistered in the twelve munipipalitiea amounts to 65 , 170 . In one district ' there is nearly one indigent person for every six inhabitants : in the eighth 1 for 6 2 3 ; in the ninth , 1 for 8 1-3 ; in the third , 1 in 20 ; in the second , 1 for 27 i , &o . "On an average , " says La Reforme , "there is 1 indigent person for every 12 inhabitants . " The National , referring to the ' same subject , says i—'' Such is the penury in the funds of the charitable associations of the capital , that the twelve mayors of Paris have made the most pressing entreaties to the inhabitants of their various districts » to assist the 70 , 000 unfortunate beings who are at this moment destitute of bread , clothing , and fire . "
The Reforme announces that sixty Frenoh Republicans left Perpignan for Barcelona on the 18 th instant . Henry Vih . —Lotjis Philltppb ' s Fbabs . —The Commerce states that '' at umber of secret agents have been despatched from Paris to England to watch the Duke of Bordeaux . Spies of two descriptions are to be sent to England ; one set to watch the Duke at a distance , and the other to keep ever within fight . All these persons will act under one leader , who will every day address a report on thesubjeot to the Minister of the Interior . "
M . De Lamartine , the staunch supporter of the Republican cause , and declared enemy to the tyranny of the present King , has recently published a most admirable article upon the future intentions and duties of the Parliamentary Opposition , in Le BienJ ^ ublie ( The Public Good)—a journal wiioh he UimBelf has established at Macon , the place that he represents in tee Chamber of Deputies . His manifesto is exciting great seusation , and causing work for all the corrupt writers to reply to its statements , and support as they best can the present order of thin « 3 . Our readers may judge of the article by the following paragraph : —
** The revolution willed that Fran 6 e should be a democraoy . Successive ministers declare , on the contrary , that : royalty , with ariBtooraey for its basis , is indispensable . They demand : a political hereditary right for the peerage , a eoTereignty by right of birth , and they deplore their want of power in this mannner to overcrow Equality . The revolution declared that all citizens ahould be equal . The preseDt system , on the contrary , divides them into categories , gives ' political powor to one , and , condemns the other to implicit obedience . The revolution declared the King to be . an hereditary magistrate , his power ' emanating from the people ; and opposition to the government renders royalty a superior , independent power , attracting all to itself ,
and euro to triumph over all , with time tor its minister and faction for its prerogative . Nay , the power of the nation over interregnums has been taken away by a regency-law . The revolutiou ordained that the King should send away troops from the vicinity of the Legislative Assembly , and it removed the Bastile . The present government has spent three hundred millions on bastilrs erected round the capital , ihe seat of the law aud the legislature . Tho revolution declared that religious liberty should be absolute and sincere ; declared thai no hand should be raised between God and man , no conscience lowered to the altar of a dominant sect , that there should be no state religion , but all species of worship be equal . Instead of this the Government upholds one species
of worship against all others . It declares creeds legal or illegal , and makes the altar an object of administration . And , if two or three persons meet together , in the name of a common belief , to pray , it sends the gend'armerie to disperse the worshippers and imprison the pastor . The revolution declared that commerce and industry should be free . Government , creates a privileged feudality , and creates a monopoly in favour of the rich producer . The revolution declared thatthe law should be the expression of the general wish . Government has declared it to be ihe will of merely two hundred thousand electors ' . In short , if the members of the National Assembly were to rise from the grave , they would not know their work , so has it been disfigured .
From reaction to reaction , corruption to corruption , pretext to pretext , what principle has been left sound or intact ! Instead of a democracy there is an oligarchy ; instead of equality an electoral noblesse ; instead of magisterial royalty a dynastic one ; instead of afree press , the laws of September ; instead of the right of association , the prohibition for any number to meet under any pretext ; instead of emancipated religion , there are religious quarrels , and sects disputing their share of the budget ; instead of property fairly divisible , there reigns the old system of mavnmorte in the re-establishment of religious corporations ; instead of free trading we have the reign of capitalists ; instead of the moral supremacy of intelligence there exists that of wealth , of landed and commercial property 1 "
LiBKBTT OP the PaESs!—On Sunday , all the copies of the France newspaper were seizad by the police at * the printing establishment or the post office . Spain . —Madrid—On the 11 th the Senate held a preparatory meeting , and appointed two Committees charged with , the verification of the returns . It was believed that the Duke of Rivas or Count Espeleta would be elected President of the Senate , and Olczaga President of the Chamber of Deputies , The Chambers would be constituted for business on
the 25 : h . —On the 13 ih a grand bull-fight took place at Madrid , for the support of the Chnroh . The Queen and her sister were present , and , from all accounts , enjoyed the horrible sport . Eight bulls were killed ; twelve horses ( tortured in a frightful manner > were killed or wounded . The exhibition lasted for three hours , and produced £ 1 , 000 . The money obtained by such a revolting performance was , no doubt , blessed by the clergy , having been set apart to aid in building a church near Madrid .
M . Carnerero has been appointed to supersede M . Aguilar in the post of Minister of Spain at Lisbon . The latter was charged with kaving kept up a treasonable correspondence with the leaders of the Ayacucho party , particularly M . Cardero , former Political Chief of Badajoz . The Casiellano contains a letter from Galamoucha of the 9 th , stating that on the 8 th a column of the Centralists of Saragossa , 1 , 500 Btrong , presented themselves before TerueJ . The majority of the
National Gnard , sympathizing with them , wished to open the gates and fraternize with the insurgents ; bnt the authorities resisted , and sent to request assistance from the commander of the forces before Saragossa , vfho had not , however , a man to spare . The correspondent of the Castelh . no accordingly inferred that the Centralist banner hid been hoisted at Teruel . The Bco del Comer do announces the pronouncement of OHva , near Alicant . on the 5 th . General Amettler , Military Commander of the province of Santander , had been dismissed from that
post . We read in the Phare ot Bayonne : — The Vide-President of the Junto of Barcelona , Don Jose Marfa Bosch , has died from the wounds which ho received in the attack on the citadel . His funeral took place with great pomp . Things were in the same state at Barcelona on the 13 th ; the firing continued on both Bides Tfithout any result .

A letter in tho Tunes , dated Gracia , Oot . 13 fch , gives the following HQW 8 of another failuro of the besieged but heroic BirceloneBe : — "Nothing daunted at the ill success of their attempt to seiza the citadel , and take Gracia by assault , the insurgents made another effort last evening , in the direction of Barcelonette , with the object , no doubt , of driving out the troops occupying that place . Abont five o ' olock , p . ni ., a battalion of thePatolea left the gate of the city leading to Barcelonette , and commenced a sharp fire of musketry on the troops , whilst thevfort of Atarazanaa opened its guns in the same direction . " These hostilities Were replied to by the fort San CarlO 3 , the citadel , the fort Pio , and Monfjuich , while all threw , in quick and almost unittterrupted succession , shells , grenades , and round shot against the assailants . ' In the meantime a demonstration was made in another quarter . The writer says : —
M The attempts made by the battalion on the side of Barcelonette failed in a short time . They had scarcely advanced outside ihe gate , when ' they were driven back asain , and with loss ; aud , on the side of Gracia , the party that had come put by the Puerta del Angel did not five a Bhot . 11 Tho firing , however , on the other side , continued the whole of the evening . From five o ' olock until eight o ' clock , Fuerte Pio , San Carlos , and the citadel , threw in shells and round shot in great quantity . Montjuioh fired about a dozen shots , and then became silent . .
"From private , but certain sources of information which have reached me this morning , at an early hour , from Barcelona , at whose very gates almost we are , 1 learn that up to eleven o ' clock last night not less than forty seven of those , who were wounded in the attack on the citadel , which I noticed in nay letter of the 8 th , died in hospital of tho injuries received in that affair ; and several others are beyond all hope of recovery . Such losses suffered by men shut up so olosely as the insurgents are in Barcelona , and who are unable to replace the men they thus lose , must be attended with the most terrible results to themselves .
" It must not , at the same time , be denied that , by the latest accounts , all was not going on very favourable with Prim . This first attempt on Girona was a failure ; i which , perhaps , the presumption of that individual , in supposing its conquest would be to him as easy as that of Mataro , sufficiently merited . I before alluded to the fact of his artillery having been compelled to withdraw from within range of the guna ofTthe castle of Girona . Since than a great number of his men were brought in wounded to Mataro , where they remain in hospital .
"Thirty-nine prisoners , amongst whom was an officer of the Somatens raised ini&vpnr of Aroettler , were brought in here the day before yesterday . They were , officers and ail , bound with cords and their arm 3 pinioned ; they had been taken at Manfesa . They were Bubsequenily . transferred to the citadel . They manifested the usual indifference on those occasions ; entering the town , and leaving for their place of detention , smoking their cigars , and Chatting and laughing with their escort , as if nothing extraordinary had happened to them .

' - : 14 tii . ~* Thi Posdatatif to-day has a letter which confirms the fact of the pronunciamento of Leon in favour of the Central Junta . It states that it bad been for some time notorious that euch a thing was about to take place ; and there being but few regular troops there , the military commander determined upon transferring his head quarters to some strong place , and selected the barracks of the National Guards , whom he ordered to turn out , which they ultimately did , ' though the guards at the gate at first resisted : that immediately after the town became in a state of agitation , and at half-past , two p . nwthe drums of the National Guards were beaten , a-nd- ' a number of officers and men assembled at the Cathedral , not ,
however , amounting to more than fifty . Tne Military Commander , Political Chief , and other authorities proceeded to the Cathedral , at the head of the provincial Begimeut of Leon , and ordered the troops , to fire upon the nationals ; but instead of doing so , ( lie officers in command of the troops seized the authorities themselves , and made them prisoners . They then proceeded to proclaim the Central Junta , and elected a local Junta , of which D . Gabriel Alvnrez is president ; D . Francisco Rico , vice-president ; and Senors Salvador , Carilio , J . R . Boloque , J . Bullon , Gabriel Lavandu ,, Jose Llamazares , J . Cereceda , and Carlos Arguellos , members ; and Senora Sotero Rico and Manuel Arriola , secretariee . It is also reported to-night that Alicante has pronounced in a similar sense * and that great agitation and confusion prevailed at Valladolid when the mail left . >
More troops have been brought into Madrid today . A large force of cavalry entered from the north . The Tarantula asserts that 15 , 000 rations of bread have been ordered for to-morrow . The Correspondent of the Chronicle of the abova date , says : — " The experiment is now being tried how far Spanish troops and Frenoh money will go towards effecting the objects of the Modorados and their allies on the other Bide of the Pyrenees . Large sums of money have lately come in from France ; and though the government papers assert that eight millions of francs , which lately arrived here from that quarter , was all on private account , there is no doubt large sums , have gone into the treasury , which would otherwise have been unable to new clothe the troops here , and meet the necessarily heavy expenses of marching troops from one end of the country to the other , and carrying on the present military operations in Catalonia and Arragon . "
On this subject the Eco , a Madid paper , says : — " It is reported that the government has received sixty millions of reals from France within these few days , and that , as the French government does not give the money for nothing , it must either have been got on usurious terms , or on terms injurious to the national dignity and independence . " Swiss Mercenaries . —It would appear from the Swiss paper Helvitie of the 3 rd , copied by th-j Eco , that Senor Luis Aillon , the new Charge d'Affairs of Spain , has applied to tho Swiss Government ; for leave to raise a corps of 3 , 000 men , to form a royal guard for Dona Isabel II . The Gazette has taken no notice of the statement ; and though the Heraldo affects to treat it as ridiculous , it is far from improbable that such a step is contemplated , [ The Swiss , before they engage in tbis service , should remember the fate of Other " Swiss Guards " , particlarlyi those who fell by French pikes on the ever-memorable 10 th 6 f August . ]

The memorable day of the 15 th of September , the day on Which such glorious changes took place , which have At once revived the prospects of the nation , has been celebrated throughout the kingdom by festivals : and illuminations , and Te Deunis sung ia all the CBvaobes . Letters have been received to that efftict from ail the provinces and insetted in the papers oft the metropolis . At ^ Eijium ( Vostizza ) all the British merchantmen at anchor there hoisted their colours and seemed to partake of the national rejoicings . All the men on board these vessels were invited by the inhabitants to celebrate with them the day of their political Mgeneration . At Missolonghi , the 15 th of September has been celebrated in a most patriotic manner . The
daughter of the memorable Marco Bolzaris , the hero who , like another Leonidas , gloriously fell at the commencement of the Greek revolution against the Turks , In dosoribing to her sister ( Maid of Honour to the Queen ) the festivals that took place at Missolonghi , expresses in a most enthusiastic manner her grief at not being present with her at Athens to Witness the concourse of the people , land to hear their clamours in demanding their rights .

Great preparations have been making for the convocation of the Nationp . 1 Assembly , and orders have been issued to all the provincial governors by the new Ministry to that ? ffco € * The 1 st ( 13 lh ) Novemi ber has been fixed by the Ministry aa the time of the assembling of the ^ representatiyes in the metropolis to commence their important business . Several appointments and changes have taken place , both in the military and civil departments . Indeed , the whole face of the country-is clearing froca'the adherers of the old , system and , all things , as it wero . become new . The Ministers of the laio
diabolical system have been obliged to quit the metropolis—Rizo is gone to Constantinople , Chrystides to Syra , Ralli and Vlachopulo to Poros , and Kriezeff to Hydra . I Sir E . Lyons , the Philhellen British Minister at Athens , has expressed his ppprobatiou to the new and national Ministry , on the part of his Government , respecting the affair af the ISta of Septembers M . Piscatory , the Frenoh Minister , and M . Catacaay , the Russian , have likewise given their approbation . Only the Austrian and Prussian Ministers have protested against it . But when the three allied Powers are with us , who can be against us ?
Italy . — " According to a letter from Bologna , of the 9 th ( says the Commerce ) , fresh disturbances took place there on the preceding evening . Several ' shots were fired in the square before the Opera-house during the performance , and caused great and general alarm . * | ItAtY . —The Auslurg GaxeUe announces that the troubles of the Rooiagna continue ; that the fortifications of the Anooua are to be repaired , and that the Cardinal Legate Spinola has been recalled , and had left Bologna on the 10 th . He is replaced , ad interim , by Cardinal ] Casoni , but Cardinal della Genga is to take the Government .

Hitherto the Jevva have paid an annual sum for exemption from military
service . j OVERLAND MAIL . By express from Paris , letters and papers Were received from China and India on Monday . The intelligence from China had been anticipated by that brought by the Hindustan . The news from India is of a very unimportant character . We give the following extracts : — j Bombay .. —A most extraordinary discovery was effected in July last , iat Bombay , of a confederacy for plundering boats , ' robbing ships , and smuggling goods . This gang had existed for at least a quarter of a century in the most populous part of that town . They are also supposed to be connected with the pirates and murderers , who even now so frequently
commit the greatest atrocities within almost the hail of the police and other authorities of that important naval station . No discovery could be made of the gang until one of the accomplices give a clue which led to the eeizare of theiT books , and to the development of the whole system , which was organised in tho lnost perfect manner . The police Were on the traces of the malefactors , but it was feared that no conviction would take ! place , as most of the police agents had been bribed by th&gang , and they were throwing every obstacle in the way of having any of their accomplices punished . Scindb . —The affairs of Soinde appear to be settled , for the present , the British remaining andisturbed masters . Shere Mah ^ uimed , who is a maa of but little capacity , having > failed in all his enterprises , has fled to the Beloochee mountains West of the Indus , from whence it is said that he and his partisans still contemplate ' attacking some of the posts
of the line of British troops along the Indus . It is said that after the rainy Season the various hill tribes bordering on the plains , now subject to the British and to Mourad AH , will be induced to make inroads , and to try to I plunder the eettiers , but it does hot seem expected that they will risk auy bat-Uts for the expulsion of the BritiBh . Affghanistjln . — -Vationa rumoHTa have been current respecting the state of AffjUanistan , where Dost Mahomed is said to be ruling with a rod of iron , and who has caught and imprisoned one of the traitors to Shah Shoojah and the British , in the person of Ameer Oolah . It is ; difficult to give credit to the statements circulated j about ibo state of Herat , which is now said to be governed by the influence of Persia . Suftur Jung ^ the son of Shah Soojah , is described as in prison ac Caadahar . In fact , the whole oi' Afghanistan presents a picture of confusion and anarchy . j

Mr . Van Buren has taken such a view of the Repeal movemen * as was to be expected from one who , on all occasions , has proved himself the unwavering friend of popular lights and the consistent advocate of civil and religious liberty throughout the world . ! Llnden-ffald , June 19 tb , 1843 .
Gentlemen , —I have had the honour to receive your letter inviting me , in behalf of the friends of Irish liberty iu Milledgeville and its vicinity , to meet with them on the 4 > . h of July , for the purpose of Revising suitable measures to further the efforts of their brethren in Ireland to secure for themselves the inestimable privileges of civil and religious liberty ; and desiring an expression of my views and feelings upon tho subject , in the event of my not being able to attend in person . j - It can scarcely be necessary to assure you of the pleasure it would afford me to meet a portion of my fellow citizens so well entitled to my respect and gratitude , on a day and an occasion , j which are both so full of interest , but this , aa you reasonably anticipate , ia out oi
my power . You do no more than justice to my feelings gentlemen , in relying , with confidence , upon a favour , able response to those by which you are animated . The zeal and fidelity with which the great body of the emigrants from Ireland have sustained the republican principles upon which the government of the United States is based , as well in war as in peace , are too well known to reqjture example or illustration . The blood of Irishmen was freely shed in the struggle for independence , as well as in our succeeding efforts to maintain it inviolate ; and among the most illustrious martyrs to our fteedom will be found the names of not a few cenerona sons of Ireland . ; Thus associated in the
vicissitudes of war and peace , I in the acqaisition of liberty , ita preservation , and ita enjoyment , tt » aemooraoy of the United Statoi , ia v ? aow feelingi , I bate always participated , have as a natural consequence , on all occasions , manifested a deep Interest In the prosperity and happiness of a people ; from whom the country has received so many gallant soldiers , and valuable citizens , and the dembcratic cause ! bo many and such untWng Bupportew . Jfo flincere friend of that cause can , therefore , feel indifferent ona topic which deeply concerns , and which , judging tiom all indications that have come under my observation , extensively excites the parent country of those to whom he is bound by ties so sacred and enduring . \ Looking to the scrupulous and well known policy of our government which prescribes a sedulous avoidance
