brahim Pacha, eon of Mehemet Ali, Dacha of Egypt,
now holds. Syria, as the representative of his father
and the right of wimp:mit. He is a man of remark
able talents and ambition,!tends himself strongly to
European imprcrvemenla, but has sagacity enough
not to shock the prejudic4s of his Moslem subjects
by -their intri,ductio' n.
The first expedition which brought Ibrahim; Pa
ella, before the eyes of the world, was his expedition
against the Wahabees of Arabia, who in 1831 and
1832. threatened the Mabomedan faith, He imme
diately placed himself at the bead of such 'troops as
he could command,- madd a descent on Arabia, do.
rested the reboil, and brotight their chiefs as prison
era to Cairo, in the domibion of his father. Instiga
ted by this success, he introduced European discipline
and military tactics into his army, procured the assis
tance of European engineers, and overran Syne with
a conquenng host.
The Ottoman Porte are,now anxious to reetore the
Pashalie, as a means of preserving their power and
footing in Europe. Thri English press is generally
in favor of lending assiiitance to the Porte, as a
means of preserving peaie in the east .. .but it is high
ly questionable, even shciuld .Great Britain assist her
in regaining Syria, whether she ha' the power to re
tain it. The arbitrary power and supremacy of the
Porte, had become extremely irksome to the Arabs
of Syria, before the, inclusion and
. subjugation by
Aliruhim Paella. The r ecent government has not
improved their conditions and the question of policy
now reverts, whether one of the more enlightened
nations of Europe should net hold it, as it were in
trpst for the benefit-of he native inhabitants. Eng
land is better prepared to do this, than any other
country : France, Russia, and Mohamed Afi, would
it is true, dissent. France however with her African
possessions at Algiers, bold without hindrance, should
make no objection—Russia. if she has the_svish, has
not probably the power to oppose it, and Mohamed
Ali, might he induced to forgo his claims on Syria,
if the Sultan, should acknowledge his complete in
dependence as Sovereign of Egypt, and the conquer
ed countries, bordering the Red Sea.
That Syria, under these views, must become a
hone ocEloirspean contention, no one eon doubt ;
Englawants it as etiigh-road to her Indian pos
sessions; Russia, wishes to hold it as a check on Eng
land, amid France has long looked on Egypt with a
loilging eye. We may therelore expect-in the coarse
of the present year, to find Europe, engaged in an
atitiosi. general war on this account.
Russia is not so powerless as English j.iurialists
imagine. The introduction of her grain iiito Eng
land, has drained a va.t amount of bullion, and filled
the 'treasury of the autocrat, while his proximity to
the scene of action will give hint a iterated advan
tage in case of actual war. Syria will not be resign
ed without a struggle by the Czar, and we may ere
long behold the curious spectacle of three nations
contending for the right of governing a country, nei
ther of which have any natural or political claim to
its possession.

The President says, that the •-tnuss of the
people, the laboring classes, have heretofore been
comparatively listless upon the subject of the man
agement of public affairs."
That accounts fur the Whig gains—the people are
waking up! If they have heretofore left the ..man
agement of public affairs" to the Prices and Swart-
Auto of the Treasury, they have payed very dear
for their whistle!
The Globe fays that the Administration does
nut indulge defaulters even for small sums.
pther the Globe, the books of the Treasury De

sub-treasurers. must be incorrect ; which are we to

presidential terms have circled away. and 'still not on

office and swindle the public fur party purposes.
Chapped HawLs arid Lips.—''Many ladies,' says
the New Era, •complain hitter!y at this season of

her next." At said election two inapeetor4 and
one judge are to be elected for each %%aril, township
or district; nevertheless, only one person fur Inspec
tor end one other person fur Judge ran be rottd f,r
by electors—and consequently the party having the
greatest number -of' votes Hill eleet the Judge. In
future the contest will be fur the Jradges as by the
new law there can be but oneJtidge to each district,
and Le is-to decide dn the qualification of electors, in
case the two Inspectors disagree as to the elector's
right to rote.

The fide of the Hornet—A Washington corres
pondent of the Baltimore Chronicle, says that a new
and startling light has been cast on the end of this
ill-fated vessel, by the offer of an individual to exhib
it proofs that she outlived the gale, in which it was
believed that she perished, and met her destruction
from enemies more cruel than the elements. The
amount of the disclosure made is that after passing
the gale, in safety, her magazine was fired by con
spirators, bnbed to effect this diabolical purpose by
the head . of a foreign govenunent,, and that four
hundred brave men were thus instantaneously - hur
ried into eternity, in a moment of entire self-security,
and while the interchange of congratulations for
their preservation from the prey of wind and wave,
was yet unfinished. Fie who voluntarily conies for
ward to make this disclosure, states that he was not
i i himself present at the catastrophe, but that a friend
was there ; and for this friend he requires pardon in
the establishment of the truth of his statement. He
also asks fur a pecuniary reward fur himself. The
evidence on which he proposes to establish the facts,
is the production of the ship's log book up to the
moment of the catastrophe, and also of the private
letters of the officers, with other testimony of a cor
roborative 'character. The subject is now before the
Navy Board, and has led to frequent and long deli

conclusion as to the condition impaired by the infor
