In speaking of the possible assent of England to the annexation of Canada to the United States, ' the Times says; "yet the candnct of the people will be directed by motives of prudence and interest alone. If they think they can do without Canada, then on ly will they give up Canada, but in sorrending Cana da they will take care not to surrender one jot of sea or land the possession of which really and effectively concerns the maritime and commercial importance of Great Britain.

One account says they were dismissed, and that the president had sent a message to.the assembly the reading of which created a great excitement among the members and citizens of Paris generally. It seems that the whole of the minfs• try, with the exception of Mr Odillon Barret, who was' not present, assembled on the inCirffing of the 30th to advise the president respecting the appoit ment of a successor tot Mr. Falloux, the retiring minister. At this meeting Lotiiii - Napolcon emphatically de clared that the cabinet wanted dignity, an imputation sofficiently annoying to rake the dander of lesi sew. sative personages than those who form the executive of Republican France. The insult was too deep to be forgiven. The president adthid that the cabinet had been trinSubservative to the conservative major ity of the nssembly, and that the club of the council of the state did what he himself •could not do, and settled the policy of the government, and actually nominated the ministry. This way enough, and an explosion instantly followed. In the evening:M. Du phin read to the assembly a message from the presi dent, which is too long for transmission by telegraph but which is very spirited and interesting for it can hardly fail *to provoke angry passions, and it 'may probably Produce the coup if etat which has been long foreshadowed. The Londonl'imes Bays.—lf our clear and definite signification to the sweeping* measure by which the Preset. of the French republic has changed his whole administration, and to the resolute message in which he announced the species of coup &ant to the na;• Alone assembly, we must suppose that Louis Napo leon intends to coavey to France and the world his presuinptory intention to assume in his own person the supreme direction of the affairs of the republic. 'Men are needed," says the president, oowho cotnpre-. Lend the necessity Of the single direction of a firm Character and of clearly defined policy, which does not compromise power by any irresolution of men; in ' short, who are as Much filled with the condition of my peculiar responsibility as their own, of the ne cessity of action as well as words in allusion to the new ministry."

The =CM wind of an irrated_ popular assembly would sweep away such a cabinet .as this.

EDITORIAL CORVIRTION.—A number of the 'country editors of this State met in liarrisburgh on Friday of last week. and, in tho course of their deliberations, passed a resolution to hold an adjourned Convention on the Ist of January next. They desire to secure, by act of Con gress, the transmission, free of their newspapers; in the counties and Congressional districts in which they are published—and, by enactment of our own Legislature, the publication of the laws of the Conunonwealth in their eglumns. All of which eve trust will be accomplished in duo time. IE?

A few years ago, corn was sold in the Mad river and Miami vallies at 12i cents a bushel, auff was a drug at that. Now it will command 23 cents and upwards, any where. along the lino of our railroads. We clip the above from an exchange paper. It is one of the many evidences we meet with daily demonstra ting the utility of railroads to tho community , generally, but more especially to that portion' ngaged ik.agricul tore. It cannot have escaped the observation of every intelligent farmer that the more extended his !market. the higher prices ho can obtain for the prodttiti. of his labor and his soil. Railroads furnish him; with such is market. So far as time is concerned, they britiVhint so much near& the groat marts of commerce and trade, as they diminish the time to reach them. To illutitrate. A few years ego, it was a good two weeks• journey to New York, and produce of all kinds along the fake there was comparatively worthless. Now,' by the help oftailroads and steam navigation, the same journey can be • accom plished in three days. and instead of every thing the far mer raises being of little or no value, it commands good prices l and a ready sale. Can wo doubt this change is the 'result of railroads, and other, works of public improve ment, uniting the lakes with the Hudson? If we do we must doulit the evidence of our senses, and set at naught all the well known principles and laws which, govern trade between ono section of the country and another. Railroads, then, having done so much for tho 'farmers of this Fcctien, what may wo not expect thorn to do when, instead (if - indirectly connecting thorn with the eastern markets, they will directly bring those markets at their Very doers, as it' wore. The road now under contract to the State line, and shortly to be put under contract through to Buffalo, will bring them within three hours ride of 'the' Buffalo market, and by the New York and - Erie road. which will be finished in eighteen months, within fifteen or twenty hours of that of New York. Will any sane man pretend to say that this result will bo with out deep and lasting benefit to the AgriCulturalists? Look at the southern tier of counties in I Now York through which the New Yoik and Erie road has boon finished. Formerly the farmers' butter, and cheese, and milk, and fruit (for it is a groat dairy country,) had no cash mar ket. but now the daily trains go down loaded with their products; and one who had hover visited the city, would wonder whore all the throats wore to. be found, to drain the contents of the immense train of milk-cans that daily go down to New York over this road to find a market. And it is thi4 kind of trade and travel which hits enabled this road, half finished as it is, and the moat expansive one in the country; to pay already in interest of 8 per cent. du the capital invested. What interest it will pay, when finished to the lake, and thus enabled to compete sUccesifully with the other routes to the east, for the i nmetise trade and travel of the west, one can easily int- gine, It must be much larger, and prove the best pay tg investment in the country. lint we did not sit down with the intention of discussing the question of, profits of railroad stocks, but to ask the producers of Erie county to look upon the railroad enterprises of the day, as - they ought—as the great moans to free themfrorn dependance upon country dealers in tape and ribbons. Already', us we have been informed, certain of theso gentry along the lino of our road have taken the alarm, and commenced crying down the prOject, and the efforts of the contrartors to complete the work. These men aro shrewd to a certain extent, for they see in the mirror'of the futti4, that their reign o• the monopolists of trade is at an end—that "truck atid dicker," tape and bobble, will cease to be a legal louder for what the (armor raises! It was these kind of men, and such motives, that causal them to curse ills projector of the Erie C4llll‘l, and op pose with all their efforts, feeble as,they were, the cent pletion of that groat work. They told the hottest Dutch men along the Mohawk that if Clinton finished his 'ditch,' the competitionofthe wheat raisers of the Genesee coun try, would reduce their wheat (rem a dollar a bushel to fifty cents. But the Dutchmen of the Mohawk fuund.by experience that such rya..cming was founded in error, and so will the farmers of Erie county find, that the opposi tion (what little there is) to the construction of the North East amiTrie Road, is also founded in ; error, and that error proceeds from the pockets, instead of the brahni, of those who throw cold water upon the enterprise.

THE NEXT CopT9REBS!' In a little over a week the newly elected representa tives of the people will assemble at Washington, and Or ganize the 31st Congress. At all times that event is calculated to excite thiep interest in the public miud, but at the present moment this' fact is more eminently so than at any previous period. It will be the first assem blage•of the`poptilar will" under a new and untried Ex ecutive; and, what is a novelty in the history of legisla tion in this country, there will be a decided majority of. that "popular will" hostile to the measures and princi ples of the Executive, his cabinet. and his party. This fact alone is calculated to awaken the interests of all classes. and all parties-T..of individoeht and communities, however much they may profess to eschew politics. or shut their i eyes and, ears to the stirring.seenes and events which ere daily transpiring around them. For the first eh time, we reliant. the popular voice has called to the head of the nation an individual, and then, before the meeting of the first session of Congress!. repudiated the principles upon which they called that individual to thit station! Fcir the first time, too, an individual fills that station who hes had no experience as a politician and a statesman—whose apprenticeship, as it were. in the civil affairs of the nation, commenced with his inauguration as President, and will expire. we are confident, at the end o f four years with his retirement.' These facts alone serve to direct the public gaze to this great centre of our political system. and cause'all to watch the proceedings with the deepest interest. But these causes do not alone conspire to make the approaching seession one of over: shadowing importance! By the bungling management of the heed of the State Department, our relations with most °Vibe European governments are in the most wretched confusion. In that Department it can bo truly said that "chaos reigns supreme." When the late Ad ministration resigned into the hands of the' present the power conrered upon it by the people, and the dignity it had acquired throughout all Europe, by'the masterly and able manlier it had conducted its intercourse with the governments of the world, the dove of peace hovered over all our relotihus. Not a cloud obscured the horizon. But eight months have elapsed, however, and instead of pence and amity with the whole world, wo have difficul ties with England and Franca to settle, besides misun denitundinge with a number of other of the smaller pow ers of Europe.' While thus the clouds which have gath ered over our foreign affairs since the advent of the new Administration, are surcharged with the electric fluid and ready to burst, it is more than probable that an effort will be mado to throw our domestic affairs tato chaos and confusion, by repealing or modifying the laws foil raising revenue, and tho collecting, safe keeping and disbursing that revenue, when faised—wo refer to the Tariff and the Independent Treasury. These two laws which have so signally fulfilled the end of their creation, and by their mjactical results proved the prophesies of those who op posed their enactment, but the mere phantasms of a false system of political economy.-have not ceased to be hated ' by that school of politicians who look upon capital alone as the proper object over which to extend the protecting' hand of legislation. The Tariff law of 1846 should not be disturbed. The country was never in a more pros perous condition, and the labor of the artizan, the hus bandman, and the manufacturer, better rewarded. It is a good old maxim, to "let well enough alone." and we advise the manufactures. of all kinds, to be contented with their present gains, and not seek trhough the means of a higher lax upon consumers, who' compose the ma jority, to swell their profits, lest in asking too much, they loose what they already have. The opposition to the In dependent Treasury law comes from the 'same quarter. though in some respects, from a different source. Those win) wish for tho repeal of this truly excellent measure, can never forgive the Democratic party for depriving them of the use of tho revenues of the country to prey upon the laborer and the producer, and hence are clam orous for . its repeal. We trust that the representatives of the people will stand firm, and meet every attack up on these measures, from whatever source they may em anate. as a blow at the heart of labor by the hand of the capitalist and speculator. ,Again, ere the approaching session is a month old..it is presumed ei new State., washed by the - shores of the Pacific, will be knocking at the door of the National Cap itol; and ask to be admitted into the family of our Union; and her representatives ready to take their seats beside those of her older sisters. Thin event is also calculated to make the session ono of interest. The discussion up on the admission of this now Star of the• constellation, it is fair to presume. will be exciting and calculated to stir up the sectional prejudices and passions of our pep pie every where. Had the question of involuntary servi tude in that tei ritory i been left with the people to settle as they have settled it, and not been used as a hobby by designing men north and south to create excitement with, this State would have been admitted without a word of discussion. As it is, however, we may expect to see its admission made a question of angry dehate, if not hotly contested. But we 'have faith in the good sense of the majority, and trust that we shall have the pleasure in a short time of recording the advent of California into' our political brotherhood: These, we say. with many other of like moment, are calculated to make the ap-: proaching session of Congress a marked one in our po litical history; and, so far as our columns Will admit, we shall endeavor to keep our readers duly, informed of events as they pass.
