OCR BOOK TABLE.
'Tbeaecond volume of Macauixr’s
history of England, baa just beeaplaced upon our
table, and na we wian to inform our readers itmne
diiielywhere they can (Alain it, we avail oar
selves of the following notice, which we find in the
N. Y. Courier and Enquirer.
The remark, that Maoauurt History will have
tea tunes as many readers as any other ever writ
ten of the same events, is not too extravagant.. It
possesses ail the intense interest of the T"f»st brih
U&DI historical romance, with the addition of truth
to render the pleasure it gives unalloyed.
> In point oflUerarymeriuhe second volume ia sup
erior to the first. It may well be deemed one
frand historical drama, of which William Prince
of Orange is the leading character and hi*
aion to the throne oi England the great and wel«
come catastrophe. The first volume has no such
unity. The preliminary sketch, embracing the
• outline of the Revolution which ended m the death
of Charles EL, and the reign of his successor,
graphic and magnificent as it is, lacks the fol
nes* of history, though it serves every purpose
tor which it is introduced. The second volume
begins with the base, corrupt, tyrannical reign of
James the second, and the change it wrought iu
the temper and spirit of the English people. At
the proper point conies in a grand and strongly
drawn portrait of William, and thence forward
he becomes the central figure ofthe great drama,
and all the other character*, though grand and
striking in themselves, derive their importance
horn their relation te hisadv&acemenL
This second volume is, indeed one of the finest
and moat superb historical essays we have ever
seen. Some will insistlhat it is too liberal, (using
the ward in its technical sense) on questions both
of church and state; and others, though fewer, may
.ehargeonittheopporitefauli. To our seems,
in its tone and temper, as well as in grouping and
is general effect, the very perfectioo.of history.—
Abounding in details, it is never, dry. Often phil
osophical, it is neyer duiL Its pictures of men are
a rail of life and as true to nature, as tbr*** of Knel
■ ter end its. descriptions of events are as graphic
and as stirring as the feventa themselve*. Iu style
.is peculiar, and will he deemed laufty by those
who judge it by the long, rich and magnificent
sentences of Milton, Hooker and Burke. Bulti is
stirring, strong,'and effective. PVh sentence Jell*
: one thing—strikes*oae no more. 'Bnt
the blow is truly aimed—-it hits with aqmiokjtbaro,
-ringing stroke, :omd it never ficQtioUelL" Many!
Writers can strike as often, and sodte <**n strike
more weighty blows; bnt in none do they fell at
once so rapid' and so heavy, as in Macaulay.—
They ring and crack like a roll of musketry, but
they crash and demolish like ranmut balls.
Macau Is Jr’s History will have ten times as many
reader* as any other ever written, ofthe tame,
events. Its chief merit is that it is alive. His men
and women live and love—move and and
fill those who read about them, with all the pa*,
ciou which their actual vision might inspire. He
has clothed the skeleton of historical with
flesh, breathed into it life and vigor, and given to it
the ruddy glow of his own warm and brilliant im
agination. Nobody who reads a will deem Eng*
lish history dull or uninteresting. No one of Scott's
novels, is fascinating, and few of those novels
wflibd more widely read.
The style in which the Harpers publish it is at
once elegant, conveoient and cheap. We noted
some days since what seemed to us an error on
their part—the adoption throughout of Webster’s
orthography. We still think they should have fol
lowed the spelling ofthe author; for author*, and not
puoliahera, are responsible for the orthography of a
language. But the manner in which they have
'bees assailed for the course they have punned, and
the means adopted to punish them for it, are at once
aamanJy and mean.—Some of the Boston papers
have signalized themselves by the excessive real
they have, displayed upon this subject; and some of
the Boston pub fish era announce a rivtd edition of
the book, umhindfal ofthe virtual copy-right which
the Harper* have bought. A disinterested seal for
orthography is, of course, their ooly motive. They
voluteer to become champions ofthe English tongue
—defenders of the' tanh as delivered to Worces
ter —seeking their reward is the gratitude of pos-
to mention their profits on the edition they
are about to print. '
We deem the spelling the Harpers baveadopted
a blemish, but it 13 one of very trifling consequence,
entirely unworthy the noise that has been made
about it, and after a full and satisfactory expert*
mem, we can assure our reader* that it will not

Sms The Morning Post of this city professing to

Offensive and unjust as are these charges, so fer

Gestib® : We have noticed with regret, the
attacks that have of late been made by the Morn-*
ing Post of this city, against the cotton manufactu
rers of Pittsburgh and Allegheny. Those «tf
in our opinion, are founded in error, unjust towards
the persons assailed, and injurious to the interests
of the community.
From our personal acquaintance with yourselves
and the manner in which your business bos been
conducted, we believe, sod it is the public opinion,
that ybur establishments have been managed with
justice and regard to law; that the proprietors are
regarded as useful, honorable and upright men, and
have greatly contributed to the prosperity of this
community, and that the efforts to excite the ope
ratives against their employers, are uncalled for, of
pernicious tendency, and opposed to the interests
of the Democratic party and society m general.

TO THE PUBLIC.
The undersigned manufacturers of Pittsburgh
having for a considerable Ume past beeo assailed
through the Morning Post a paper professing to be
the organ of the Democratic party in this city, u vi
Olsten of law, oppressors of labor, and eonsp.rators
against freedom of the press, have hitherto bom,
with it in silence*
Tbeseierroneous statements required no contra*
diction here where the facta were well known and
where the circumstances of the July riots had an*
dergone Judicial investigation. Nor aboaid We
now say anything upon the subject, had not the
impression been created abroad by these publica
tions, that in this city the operatives and employers
occupied a hostile position toward each other, and
it was boldly proclaimed that the factory proprietors
were condemned by public opinion s» fit subjects
for “scorn, contumely and contempt." Having
always desired the esteem of oor fellow men, and
unconscious of having neglected any doty to the
laws of the land, to the persons in oar employ
ment, or to any one else, it becomes on obligation
to society as well as to ourselves, to afford the
public means of forming s correct opinion on the
subject
In respect to the relation between the employers
and their bands, the utmost harmony exists. The
occasion of the July riot, sod the foots connected
with it, are stated in bis charge to the jury by Judge
Patton, before whom the case was tried. To it we
refer without further remarks,* Had tbat charge
been published by the Post, we. sbould hove con
sidered it unnecessary for us to contradict its impu
taboos.
In regard to the slate of leehng on the subject,
in this community, knowing that tbe editor of the
Post was not Us tree exponent, the foregoing note
was addressed to esteemed citizens, all beloagmg
to the Democratic party, well known nt home and
abroad. Their answer is deemed sufficient to
correct tbe erroneous impressions created by the
Post

Washington, Feb. 20, 1849.
Chring to Ihe 1 noiae aod coofuaion' introduced
into tiria Bench by a young Democratic Whig Free
Soil American citizen, who haa taken quartern
therein, and who haa lunga equal to thoae of a
member of Congress, I have been unable to pay
that attention to the current news of the Metropolia
which you and your readera have a right to expect
from me. I muat hope by future diligence in fan
reapect to make up for pant deficiencies.
It is expected that General Taylor will arrive
here on Thursday or Friday morning. We sups
pose that be will have been unable to ascend the
nve, to Pittsburgh, on account of the ice, and that
consequently he will leave the boat at Wheeling,
and lake the stage for Cumberland some time to
day. He will taka quarters at Willard's Hotel. •'
Mr. Polk will vacate the White HouaeonThurx
day week, the lu of March, and he will leave
town on the sixth. I shall make it a point to gtve
him a piece at my mind before he goes I .op
pose the General will urke up hta quarter, in the
Executive Mansion on the fifth of the month.
Am to the cabinet, it u not clear that Mr. Cr.t.
tonden will not become a member of it. Letter,
bom Frmikfon, once General Taylor left Kentuc.
ky, assert the contrary; and it u> day, reported
that Mr. Corwin mated it to be an aaeert.ined fact,
thu he would accept the appointment of Attorney
General. Rumor, which is, after aU, the only au.
thorny that we can have in relation to these mat.
tera, at this tune, asserts that Hon. Mr. Leche-, o f
Kentucky, whose corneal far a seat in the Hoiule,
many year* ago, was the causa of such protracted
proceedings, is likely to become Post Master Geb
eral. Do not believe it. Should Governor Critteo*
den not come into the Cabinet, it is expected tkal
Hon. Rererdy Johnson, ol Maryland, will be made
Attorney General. It ia quite dear that he pos

and Mr. McKenaan. of the same State. The Hon.
Walter Forward, of your place, haa been suggest
ed for the new department of the Interior, should
the bill establishing it, pass the Senate, as it has
done the House.
The Hegira of the present administration will
be a relief to Old Bullion and his friends. It is
said that, owing to the personal feud between the
party of the President and the" Bullion party, the
latter, and particularly Mr. Benton, as the bead of
it, have suffered the most c/ucl persecutions. The
Bentomans charge that the whole power of the ad
ministration has been brought to bear to boild op s
faction opposed to Mr. 8., even in Missouri, with
4 w ki* defeat in the Senatorial election, which
will taka place m August, 1860. The same in
fluence has been arrayed against Ex Governor
M’Dowell, CoL Benton's brother in law. The Gov*
ernor is a Ana, moderate old gentleman, of the
school of ’93 and "99. He really believes jn the
political tenets which Jefferson and Madison taught,
particularly those of them relating to Slavery. Of
course he is no favorite with the modem Demo*
crals. He utterly refused having any thing to do
with the late Southern Caucus, and is the only
Democratic member from Virginia who had the
patriotism and courage to refuse his signature to
their addess. For these things the edict of his pro
scription is registered, aod a most energetic effort
is in progress to hunt him down, aad l think it
likely to succeed. There would have been no
doubt at ail about it, had the term of the preseot
administration extended beyond the day of the
spring election in Virginia. Mr. Benton has made
common cause with his kinsman, and does not
conceal his hatred of the whole coarse of the ultra
Southern fscuou, in respect to the Slavery agila
lion, which has brought both of them into such
political peni. It is said that, if Mr. Douglass' bill
comes fiurly up for discussion, Mr. Bentoo will det
hver a speech substantially supporting the free soil
view of the territorial quetuoo. If this expecta
tion be fhtfllled, there will be a fluttering among
lha peculiar friends of the peculiar ruatituuon
more peculiarly known as the Calhoun man, such
as they have do( experienced since when General
Jackson was making his preparation to struig up
their leader under the famous second section. I
think l am a candid and unprejudiced person, but
if I hare any weakness, a is the perfect abbarretia*
I entertain for the principles of that man, who, in
the full blaze ol the general enlightenment of this
age, can endanger the permanency of this great
and glorious Union, through the unnatural lust for
more slavery and more niggers.
I cahoot fqrmsh yon with a sketch Of the highly
interesting proceedings in the Senate to day. 1
will offer a few comments upon them. The h«l'
over which the House had been fussing and tret*
ting for three days, that authorising the payment of
the instalments on the Mexican debt, as they fall
due, each year, was taken up and passed in the
space oi five minutes. When the Geoera! Ap»
propnation Bill ouse up, upon which Mr. Foote bad
yesterday proposed to engraft an
ring on the President authority tw establish a c >m«
plele system oi civil government, with the right ol
appointing all the officers he should deem necessa
ry, and of paying them just such an amount of*
salary as he should think propier, and appropriating
$200,000 to defray the expenses of the same, Mr-
Walker of Wisconsin, had aa amendment pend
ing for the extension over the new territories oi' the
revenue laws of the United Stales. He accepted
Mr. Foote's proposition as a modification of his
own. To appreciate this movement, you must re
member that this Walker has just been elected a
Senator from Wisconsin, as an ardent Free Soiler,
and here we find him. cheek by jowl, with Foote,
of Mississippi, in the effort to throw the settlement
of this whole controversy into the bands of James
K. Polk ’ What a nice pair altogether I —What a
commentary upon human nature 1 You know that
as to mere party politics, I am free as air—that I
care for nothing but free soil—the genuine unadub
terated dirt from the boeom of my Mother Earth; —
but such things atflict me They are eaough to
make the angels weep.
4 Can iae h thing* he,
And overcome as like a Summer cloud
Without our special wonder"
Henceforth I shall wonder at nothing—l shall
put confidence in nothing. 1 was not foolish enough
to put any great confidence :o this Mr. Walker, bat
1 confess I did think be was a doll, honest, substan
tial sort of a man. 1 was mistaken—God forgive
me for trusting any body, in any thing. I now al
most wish 1 had beon an ‘original Taylor man' —
nay, that I had come np at the eleventh hour, and
gone with the crowd. But it is no use to lament
Perhaps if Mr. Van Buren had been elected, he
would have been as bad as Walker. And the
Vice President decided (his proposition to be in
order, and the Senate laid an appeal from the de
cision on the table. Shoald it be adopted, the only
effect would be to waste time, or to cause the toss
of the Appropriation Bill, with its long train of evils
and expenses—the first of which would be an ex
tra session of Congress; for of course the House
will have nothing to do with it Justus.

The use of such an idiom is peculiarly unfortu
mtie. , n connection with the telegraphic alphabet.
Take the word ‘Preveeror. In telegraphic charac
lers it appears thus :
To one familiar with these signs, it known,
that a slight irregularity in the motion of the regis

ance of extraneous electricity, will change the

are still pretty safe in writing >t down as the genu

terms, not a star glimmers among the array of dots
which signify, perhaps, the ‘foil of pork,' or it may
be, the ‘accouchemeut of her majesty,’ and tbua in
bltaaful ignorance, we may cry ‘havoc among
sausage makers,’ aod put Wall street in an uproar.
Now, to the gu of the whole matter —these
Houentottish cyphers must be abohabediboth for
our own safety and reputation, your credit and the
general good. Webster has good -axon words
enough to answer every purpo-e; he asks nothing
for his patent, aud we will supply dictionaries
to all who need them. Let the demise ot the

Tbe British Aristocracy.

Ixwdok, December .'tilh. I*l •>.
The House of Lorda, now consist* of 350 mem*
bera. Exclusive of Scotch and ln»h Represents-
Uve Peer*, it contain* two peer* of the Royal blood,
21 dukes, 19 marquises, 109 Earla, Id viscounts,
121 barons, 2 archbishops, and 21 bishops. Although
British nobility dales from remote antiquity, numl
of the peerage are of modern creation. Even as
long ago as when Hume wrote, there was hut one
male lineal descendant of the Karoas r-f William the
Conqueror. More than two-lhlrd« ul the present
peerage were created during the last erntnry. The
fee-aimple ofmost of the land m the I'mied King,
dom is vested in the nobility. The lamdy estates
of many an anslocnibr house cover immense re
gions, exceeding in extent ordinary (.German prin
cipalities, and yielding revenues tar greater. The
annual income of the Duke of Westminster, u*bo
owns all that part ol London in the vicinity of Kus
toa and Berkley Square*, is 4 oU.t)uu poundr that
of the Duke offtucclcugh.— he ot la i.ous church*
rate-refusing memory. i« 25ti 000 [xiunda. that of
the Duke of Raiboronph i* 30<i,000 pounds. The
Duke of Sutherland owns half of Scotland, but his
revenues are somewhat less than anv ot the above,
since the greater portion ol bu lands are irreclanna -'
bly barren. Some idea may bo lormed of the re
'sources of the Duke ol Buckingham, whoee estate
and effects were recently sold at Richmond, irom
the fact that his personal liabilities were not ,raa
than a million and a hall of pounds
Although the lords receive directly no compemo
tion lor their services a* the hereditary legist iinr*
ol the realm, yet the immense patronage denved
from their position is ten times more tnao equiva- 1
lent. Through their influence they procure lor
themselves pensions or profitable places in the civil
and military departments of the government, ob
tain commissions and preferments lor their sons
and nephews io (he army and church, and secure
high and lucrative posts at Court for their wive- |
and daughter*. LHit of the whole number of British
peers there are ot*t fifiy wLn do not themselves

is true that mUitatfy commissions are objects oi sale
|Q England, but Jet it requires great persona! in

army is recruited toainly from the sorb, nephews
and cousins of peyn, depnved by the laws ol pus
tail and primogeniture of tlwir lair share m the
family estates. The extent to which nep> :i*ui
and favoritism in the distribution of public offices
has been carried in America has justly ex. ued
great complamL But these tlunga, os known among

The Government of Great Britain i« . slled i li
mited monarchy, but if it received its dennm n«.
tion from the predominant element m its udm.mr
tration, it would more truly be termed a bm.ted
oligarchy. Practically, the anatocracy is aluays
more or leas in submission to popular sentiment
1 but jxxenttaily tbqy have the direction of public
affairs in their own hands. The majority of the
cabinet almost luvanably consists of peers oi the
realm. Of the present cabinet, with Lord J.»hn
Russel! at its bead, one ball belong to the House
of Lords, and every individual of the other half is
connected either by birth or by marriage with the
Kerage. A majority of the seals >! the Lower
>uee, as I shall show in my next letter, are, nr at
least may be, filled by the nominees of ihe nobility.
The colonial Governors und the ambuswadors at
important foreign Court* are almost universally
selected from the ranks ol the umuoeracy. So
unprejudiced man, whatever -eapect be may have
for high descent, great wealth, and general con
nection with ail that is decorouq and lofty can
doubt that the aristocrats element of »*x-iety, irre
sponsible os it is m its very' nature, has far too
much weight and personal agency in the govern
ment of a good and free people, like our English
brethren.
The peerage of England as a body, though there
are many miserable and most disgraceful excep
tions, are now of high personal character. Even
most of those who have no lofty guiding principle,
have a quick sense of honor, and a scorn o( a base*
action. As a class,)they are not corrupted by vice,
nor are they enervated by that effeminacy which
baa sapped the strength of favored classes in so
many other lands. Thcynrebolh intellectually and
physically robust, and they share abundantly in all
of those qualities which are comprised in the ex
pressive word manliness. Most of them hove
undergone long discipline in the senate or at the
bar, or the camp ground, or on the quarter deck,
and have thereby acquired the stoiniaa ol character
which qualifies men for high posts aad arduous
duties, aad which not ‘all the blood of all the How
ards’ would be able of itself to give. No clus* of
men in England have better developed phymeul
organisations, the beauty of the English women of
rank is Incomparable.
The British nobleman ha* much of that high
chivalrous spirit which long descent through ho
nored generations naturally inspires, but be has
little of that overbearing pride which springs from
a contempt of inferiors. Arrogance and hauteur,
a vain love of ostentation, and oiber nabod trails
are generally not among Ins characteristics; on
the contrary, bis intercourse with the world is
usually distinguished for its courtesy, it* urbooity,
its generous confidence, and its graceful simplici
ty. His ordinary personal appearance exhibits no
mark of foppery, aud is a* plain as that of an or*
dmary American citixen. A Broadway exquisite
would disdain to pnltem hi* habiliments afler those
of an ordinary English nobleninn. The other
day I saw one of ibe most distinguished Tory
leaders in the realm sitting as chairman ofn pub
lic meeting. How think you he was dressed*—
Why iii course grey pantaioona, a thick'grey vent
buttoned up to his chin, and with a rough brown
coat considerably the worse tor wear; he appeared
the exact counterpart of one of our sturdy Yan
kee farmer* The relations that exist between
the English nobility and their tenants are usually
of a roost friendly and pleasant nmure, totally
differing in character from Ihe same relations in
Ireland. The British proprietor generally feels n
personal interest in the fortuurs of In- tenant :>j< !
interest which Is commonly founded m the feet
that the ancestors of both hnv« fived and died *n
the same hereditary domains. And this interest
is not confined to the landlord personally; it lg not
st oil unusual to see his wife and daughters vi*|i„
mg the dwellings of the tenant, to mingle in hi*
family joys and sorrow*. Not a lew noblemen

As the lord passes during the day, he will bow to

The spirit of reform in England ias long been
marching from triumph to tnumph, but the ansto

divides and yet unites the upper aod lower classes
of societyJs still essentially unimpaired. Whether
this is, or is not to be lamented, such is the truth;

Mi. Clayton —Gd«. Taylor. —The correspon
dent of the Philadelphia Amencan, wnting from
Washington, under dale of l&lh instant, says that
he has perused Oen_ Tatlor’s telegraphic letter to
Mr. Clayton, and adds
Like all ffoneral Taylor's productions, it is brief
pertinent, and explicit It consists of one bondred
and twenty two words. Gen. Taylor opens by slat*
mg that he had been unable, before-the period of
wnting, to determine definitively upon aoy ar»
rangemeots for his Cabinet, (which explains why
Mr. C. was uot addressed upon the subject previ
ously,) and that he places at Mr. C.’s disposal the
Department of Slate, and hopes it may be accepted.
He closes by saying, that m offering Mr. Clayton
•n l* Portion in the Cabinet, his acceptance
will be equally as gratifying to the wishes of ibe
country as it will be agreeable to him who ten
ders it.
resident oi the Telegraph Compauy took
the precaution, when the despatch was returned
from Mr. Clayton s lodgings, to send to Wilmington,
with directions tor an express to folbw him. It i»,
therefore, probable, lhat he was in possession of
the information, before it was authoritatively pro
mulged here.
This compliment, and the manner pi its execu
tion, are equally honorable to both the distinguish
ed parties. No public man in the I’nion deserved
the distinction in a higher degree thau Mr. Clayton,
and It is not presuming too much to say, that
none is more eminently qualified for the discharge
ot all its important duties. It )9 a tribute to his
statemanship and public character, and not the
reward of poliUc**] service. The republican party
may well be proud of this honor to one who in all
(he great conical*, has never wavered m bis fidel
ity or principles, and.the country may rejoice over
it, tor the security which ins sagacity ensures to
the vessel of State
The honor has been voluntarily tendered by Gen.
Taylor in obedience to the general voice of the
country. It has not been sought by the friend* of
Mr Clayton, directly or indirectly, nor did they so
far forget their propriety or compromise his merits,
as to procure and prewot recomeodations, which
seems to be the orderof the day in quarters where
character and capai itv are wanting. It may sur
prise the public to known the foot, but it is none
the less true, that no correspondence of any kind
ever occurred between Gen. Taylor and Mr. Clay
ton. until the present despatch was received.
They have known each other only as the world at
large has known them both-through their poblic
acts and established reputations.
Beyood this appointment, notnmg is known or
intimated m a reliable manner, nor will there he
any indication ooul Gea. Taylor has conferred
wuh sucb friends as he may think proper to < all
into council.
The selection cd Mr Clayton has afforded am.
vetaat satisfaction and is regarded not only as an
auspicious event for the Administration, but it is
indicative of the adoption of that wise sod saga
ciou« policy which he advanced on the door of the
iq bu memorable speech in defence of
ireo. Taylor, and which, I undertake to say cod*
mbiited more to produce the great result that was
achieved last November, than all thnspeerhr*. in
or oat ot Congress, beside*.
It laid down the broad republican platform which
eaobled those who had heretofore differed with
us, to join in a common cause, and which attract
ed the confidence and respect of'all parties. That
i»en. Taylor adopted that chart, and mean* to
guide ha Administration by it, » within my cer
tain knowledge, and if there was any beaitation
upon the subject, the selection of him who devised
iL for the ‘first position lathe Cabinet,' would seem
to remove every doubt. A* ail event*, the future
Will prove whether I have correctly indicated the
policy that is to l*> pursued.
