That Jtfr. Clayton gave the to the angry cor respondence between himself and Mr.'Poussin; and 2. That by his whole course, he has grievously com- ‘ milted the honor and dignity of this country, so that upon the arrivol'of another Minister from France bur Government can neither maintain.it* position with justice nor retract .from it with credit. We shall follow.him in thofctepsby which each of these points is proved. The notation is our own, and Is used only to indicate with sufficient brevity what would other* wise lake up a'largo space.

FBDBRAZ.ISBK DOOSIED BY THB PKOPJLB* ' Federalism, like * rolling stone, 10 going down hill faster and fatter* 'Bach successive Slate election comesin pregnant with more disastrous results for them than the last. We agree with the able editor ortho Hartford.Timet wheu he remarks that the news of.a bad,defeat in Maryland is scarcely digest* ed before it is closely followed by the tidings of a worse overthrow in Pennsylvania. This shows that the Whigs, as a.party, are doomed. The people have weighed them in the balances and found them like spurious coin, to be both light and counterfeit. They oamo into power by the accidental division of the Democracy—by false pretences—and by a minority vote; and every one of their leading measures since they acquired office has made that minority steadily and rapidly, less, until it has become evident that they retain their ascendancy in but very few of the States whose votes ihey at one time commanded.— The people are everywhere dissatisfied/with, the whig Administration, so far as (hoy have tried it.— , They do not like (heir turning the cold shoulder to Cuba and Canada, nor their coldness towards nnfor* lunato Hungary; nor their want of sympathy with the republican movement generally in all parts of Europe, They are 1 disgusted and indignant with their VQflcillation—with their timidity—with their imbecility. Where firmness, and a bold, decided stand towards foreign.powers was called for, Whig* gory has truckled; and on the other hand, where forbearance and moderation might have been display* cd without any sacrifice of dignity or honor, they have I been gratuitously offensive and insulting. : In a fit of unseemly and puerile baggadocio (hey havo need* iessly wounded the , vanity of France, while in an other mood (hey have evinced, an equally disgusting and uncoiled fur anxiety to sustain (he Spanish dee*, potisin in Cuba. A session of Congress is close Up* on the heels of (tie Whigs. It will find them dis mayed, discomfited and . condemned by the people. Disunited.and disheartened* by uninterrupted disas ter, they will scarcely know what to do, what policy to adopt, and hardly whether they, aland on their heads or their feel. The verdict of the wrath and disgust of the people, which has been hurled upon their heads and stunned them—which, beginning in Connecticut, was re*cchoed soon after through. I out tho Tar West and South, and still more re* cenlly and decisively in the great middle Slates— will, we trust, be further signally ratified by (be pow erful voico of the Empire Slate. Few and evil.as tho days of Whiggery in power have been, they have been long enough to inculcate tbs lesson that it it one thing to rail at a great and glorious democratic ad ministration, and a'widely different thing for, the railers to hold theorems of government with wisdom or with satisfaction to the country. Threatening Aspect of European Politic*—A . bloody oriels probably at hand* All Europe is again in commotion, abd. rapidly preparing for* if not already on the brinh of a gener al war. It was prbphocied, just after the subjection of Hungary, that the struggle on the continent was. over, and that the conquered and the conquerors set tling down for awhile, if only to draw breath, we should hove no more of war and minors of war waft ed on (he breath of every gale across the Atlantic* But prophecy and speculations sro wofully at fault, when they undertake to look. beyond the present to mark out what is, or what is not to bo tbe political future of Europe. | If RuMiaVroakes up 1 her mind to fight Ifro Torks for sheltering life Hungarian patriots, (he struggle in all probability will be a bloody one ; for tu a greal extent it wjll be a conflict with Barbarism and In humanity on the one hand, and with Right and. Hu manity on the other. Turkey it is (rue, is not want ing in (he bloody experiences a war with her unscru puluus nothern neighbor involves; but if the Auto crat dare send his Cossacks over her frontiers, on an errand like this, we cannot see what Is to prevent the other powers of Europe becoming, as it is said (hey are to becume.pirtics to (he quarrel. England and France having lire popular sympathy of the mas. ses with (hem, Europe in such a struggle must inev itably become Republican or Cossack. Hungary at all events, would have another opportunity to eman cipate heraetf, and perhaps again, under the illustri ous leadership of her gallant chiefs, on whose fate mailers of so much moment to all the world depend* The ouvulier treatment of Lamorloiere, it will be readily concluded is an incident not calculated to in duce an overpowering effort, on the port of the French President, to avoid a rupture with the Cxar.

The Turkish Government, with a man - llitesa that cannot be too highly commended, re . fused to bo bullied into a compromise of its' inde pendence, and Prince Radzivai, after having inef ' fectually endeavored to bully, the Sultan into >« I ' compliance with his demands, has taken an ob-1 rupt departure from .Constantinople, and Count Tiroff, the Russian Minister, has closed all diplo plomatie relations with the Porte* . England and France, through their respect!vt representatives, have prevailed with the Sultan in keeping him firm to his first resolution. Already, in England and France, cabinet councils havi ' been held to consider these grave (ftrcomsiances. ' Not the slightest doubt can be entertained,of tin result. Should Russia persist in demanding tin [ surrenderor these devoted men, a European war , is thought to be inevitable. The Paris Journal des Debate of Thursday. , says: •* We are glad to learn that England and I France are moat cordially united in their determi- i nation to support their ambassadors in the advice I given by them to the Porte, respecting the i-xtro- 1 ditlon of the Hungarian refugees, and a note hat 1 been drawn up by these two powers of a most en ergetic character, which, it is thought, will hav*> considerable weight with the Emperors of Russia and Austria." The firm language of the London papers with reference to this question is noticed with great satisfaction by the Journal des De- ' bats.

There iff no reason lo doaht but that the best accord prevails between the English and French Cabinets, and it is said that a powerful French and English squadron will be ordered into the Medterranenh forthwith, to be ready for any emer gency pending the issue of this absorbing ques tion* Austrian Austrian politics are of subordinate interest.— It is positively asserted, with every probability of the truth of the report, that the fortress of Comorn han surrendered, and thereby an effusion of blood has been avoided. , In the Southern provinces the excesses of the successful soldiery have caused martial law lo be proclaimed. The manifesto of the Pope, has appeared in an official form, and has been received,with feelings of deep disappointment, if nut resentment in all quarters. The feeling was especially participated in by French eoldiers, several of whom Were put under arrest for having torn down or otherwise defaced the copies of the manifesto affixed to the walls. 1 ho Amnesty in particular wae made the object of popular odium. .'Kite altitude of the French military aulhoriiieUs quite expectant—lt awaits orders from Patispirut disapproves defaelo the nieaaorors ordered by the Papal Ooverniiient, and whilst the Cardinals dare not walk iho elreota inf Homo for fear of encountering ihe popular fury, ihe victims marked out by their Inquisitorial de crees, walk about freely, The Pope relying upon Austria or Spain, or bolh, and being promised funds from Russia, eeoms to niagine that public opinion will oome over to his side, and thus shuts hie eyes to Iho most obvious consequences.
