The lion. Mr. Fnamone, of Netv York, the
able Chairman of, the Committee, of Ways and
Means of, the House of Representatives,. his a
-Vowed -his intention to decline being a candidate
for re r election," The following is an estreict from
lettaio his constituents, in which he hopes- , of
,the cause of the disappointment of the hopes—of
himself and his friends, from the results of the
late election r.
rr The vaneretion which every-true patriot must
feel for the high'ortce that has been filled by a
Washington and a Madison, forbids that X should
speak harshly of the present incumbent. Yet it
is deeply- to be deplored that Mr, Tyler rine .to
labor- under a mental halludruationas& unfound
:rid-in fact as it is mischievous in its conseiluences
—that the great majority of the Whigs in Con.
norm are seeking to circumvent him. It may be
difEcult to trace the origin of this mental . malidy
without a previous knowledge of the constitution
of the patient. But I doubt not, ir its source
could be ascertained, it would be found' in that
,; - course of all governments,' the-artful and unprin:
! pipled courtier, who insidious!) , worms his way
' into the affections and confidence of patronage
and power, for no.ottier purpose but to wield it to
subsets') his own sehish ambition or gratify his
personal anilaindictiVe feelings. Ido not-believe
that the acts of the present Chief Magistrate,
which have overwhelmed his former friends with
shame and sorrow, and filled them . with -indigna•
tiny, have resulted frorri.the unaided promptings
of his own heart, or received the approbation of
his responsible advisers; but in my - opinion if you
could see the faivning parasites that, hang around
' him to flatter his vanity, and the honest Argos"
that distil the malicious poison of jealousy ifitrehis
unsuspecting 'ear, for, their-own base purposes, all
would be explained. You • would then 'see that
breach that has7been made between the President
. and his former friends, and that the, country his
been broughi to' the brink of ruin to minister to
malignant spleen of ,some disappointed aspirant to
political fame, or to gratify the unholy embition.of
a few who have nothing to hope but in a:state of
anarchy and confusion. These creatures have
practiseff upon their, unsuspecting. victim until' he
sees in everkfriend a foe, and in every Necessary
act of legislation an attempt td 'head hi.' He
has been thus driven ` on from folly to sadness,
from secret jealousy to: open betrayal, and at last
'in a fit 'of insane hostility to hie former l friends,
who elevated him to power, and in the Oesperette
hut - vain hope of securing a re.election,,he has
been)nduced to throw himself into the treacher.
• oua arms of his former enemies. What, ay be
the result of this new COALITIOS. time alone can.
determine. I fear hind .its origin .in ;weakness,
wickedness and perfidy, and that its consummation
will produce the bitter fruits of disappointment to

no good result. The prorogation will take place
about the 12th or 15th of August.
Sir Robert Peel has brought s bill into the
House of Commons for the better security of the
royeLperson, and it was unanimously, read a first
and second'
, time on the same night . The bill
vests such offences eathosd lately perpetialed 'of
the dignity which accompanies treason, and treats
,the culprits more in their truer characters, ci
rogues and vagabonds. It provides-for the due
punishment of those offences against the royal
person Which =omits to persecution ariaannoy

pointing fire-nuns et the sovereign, discharging
them, or explosive or destructive materials, near
the person of-the Bove - reign, or ihrOwini any sub

punished as larcencies but power is given to thii
judges to direct that the convicts be liable to per
sonal chastisement.• -
Sir Robert Peel has stated that a new treatyY of
commerce has been tendered by big government to
that of Brazil, by which the misunderstanding as
to the period at which the existing one shell ex
pire, will be got over. No answer has yet been
received.
• The statement of the , revenue presents eu in
crease- on the whole year 665,175, and a de
crease on the quartet of 26.427. arising
,from' a
falling off in the Customs, larger than the increase

theirqpinion they believe to.be erroneous or .. vi
