This letter called forth a reply in the leading I German paper of that city, which for hold inso lence octane Is rarely equalled. The "puritan ical no lotus" of the American people on that eabject are treated with contempt, as is the' au thority of the Governor, and of the laws.

A brief Telegraphic bulletin, !the truth of which VI. cannot vouch, mentions that the first movement against the Mexican Provinces has been so far successful that the insurgents have seised the public funds and marched to join Car rabajal, who is deaiguated as the leader of the intended revolution.

The liarriAburgh American furnishes the following particulars, in addition to the developments al ready made on this subject: Judge Woodward, when In Harriaburgh last week, told hie friends here :that he Lad heard of but one Whig in the State who would not Tote for Got.

It is a common saying that this is a great coup try, but the time is come when the word 'lberia' should be substituted for common. The last ar ral from England informs us that, during the week ending 12th September. there bad been very large arrivals of "spool e," which had made the money market much easier, and first class bills were ,readily discounted below three per cent. per annum. Now, as it is- well known that this country furl:drilled nearly all the amount referred to, is it not proper that we should boast of living in a liberal country? We, good-natured fellows, were not satisfied at seeing the rate of Interest in Eng land three per cent., and the rate here from sin to ten per cent.; but, in order to accommodate John Bull,we shape our revenue laws to reduce the rata of Interest with him teloti , three per tent., and raise it among ourselves to - fifteen per cent. for first class paper. Fifteen per teat. for such paper is now (as reported) the lowest rate lathe city of New York, and other paper is fully at from twenty to twenty-five per cent per an num, and large failures occurring almost every day. Asove elevate the fortunes of old Johnny. at the expense of Brother Jonathan, In all time to *come we must style our country the most liberial on the must of the globe. If our gold continue to leave us in such large quantities; the rate of interest in London will be reducedtwo per cent. per annum, whilst we may have to pay thirty per cerit. per annum for (money. When we reverse our system, interest in London will rise, and in New Yorkfall to old rater, and then washed" be prtsperous.
