than, for March 4th, is issued, of double sixe. id
commemoration of the election of General Taylor
to the Presidency. It contains some very beauti
ful engraving*: one representing the inauguration,
in which tho portrait* of many of the most distin
guished men of the nation are given. Uis alto
gelher a very voidable and interesting paper. Koi
sale by Morse, Fourth street.
Oar Washington letters will be read with interest
these days. Oar very excellent correspondent has
promised tq keep us posted ap in all matters oi
general interest. The Presidentelect arrived there
on Friday evening, and we may look for the an
nouncement ofhia cabinet, daily. Mr. Cluyton has
relarned from Delaware, and was at his seat in
the Senate, at last accounts.
It will be matter of gratulation to all our readers,
from variooß reasons, that commercial and manu
facturing prospects are so cheering in England,
as will be seen from our foreign news to day.—
Were the Interests of manufacturer>. and through
them, of agriculturists, as well guarded m thitcoun*
try as In Great Britain, this country would be able
to boast of equal prosperity, in every branch ol
business.
hmttTAirr to the Press.— The New \utk -Su
perior Court has decided that newspaper* have ibe
right to publish police and judicial re(>ort*. and that
any true and lair report is not a libel. This has
heretofore been a disputed point. This decision also
settles the question that if the facts contained in an
article are true, it cannot be the subject of a Itbel
sail. Fait.criticisms are also declare to be privi
leged.
Hex Jchu M. Clatton. —The universal appro
bation with which the nomination of Mr. Clayton
to the premiership has been received by the Whig
press, argues,,. well lbr the ol
General Taylor. It shows that in the judgment
of the Whig party, the President elect has
displayed the soundness of hisjudgmeot, and bis
attachment to Whig principles. It ha* often been
remarked of the old General, that he possesses, in
a remarkable degree, the faculty of choosing hn>
men for their fitness for the objects to be accom
plished. This has beeo seen in his whole event
fill military career, and m the nomiuauou ol thfc
distinguished Delaware Statesman we have fur
ther evidence of this most important (acuity iq a

Excessive LEatgLATton. —From who! attention
we hove been able to bestow upon the proceeding!
of the Legislature this winter, we should think it
will be remarkable for a large amouai of Legisla
tion- .Bills are introduced in great numbers, and
are passed with Railroad speed. We have no
'objection to thin, provided due caie and consider
ation is bestowed upon the subjects legislated upon.
-We approve of industry and energy, and have no
objection to any amount of useful und necessary
legislation. Bnt we fear always, where there is
too much haste in the pasisago of laws. They
are frequently found crude and indigested, and
productive of more harm than good. Hasty legis
lation also give i an opportunity lo interested per
rons to procure the passage of laws of which the
people generally have never heard of, and ctc
probably opposed to. Of this we have irequent
mstahees-
To prevent unnecessary, Uncalled for, and ba»lv
legislation, every bill, affecting the interests of ibe
people generally jof any county, ought to be
published m the ropers ot that county, lor the public
information and examination, and bills affecting the
whole state, ought to be published throughout the
Commonwealth. In this way moch evil might be
prevented. As to petitions, they ore not much to
be depended upoa in the general- We are sorry
to have to say it, but the American people do abuse
the right of petition most shamefully. A petition
be gut up and numerously signed, for almost
aoy project under the sun. Hundred# of persons'
Bigtr-petitiona without reading them, or making the
least inquiry into the effects which will be prodd
ed by the granting of the object prayed lor Many
of our respectable citizens signed a petition, ibis
winter, to dismember our county, a thing they are
utterly opposed to. While petitions oaa be gotten
up m easily, legislators eanndt depend upou them
as in nine cases out of ten, they do not represent
the real sense of the people.
In order to prevent too much and too hasty leg
islation, many of the states have provided for bien
nial sessions of the Legislature, and much waste
of lime, money, and other evils would be prevent
ed, were the practice universal.
The Mississippi arid the Poeinc.
The bill proposed by Mr. Benton, m the Senate
of the United States, to provide tor the construction
of a railroad from the Mississippi to the Panb<
goes directly to its object, and assumes at once fc
the Government all the responsibility of the umiei
miring.
This is bold and statesman like. The lime ho
been when strict constructionism woold Lave #**r
ed back with honor at the audacity of iu<th a pro
posal; but, happily, the progress of nationality ha#
•o tar advanced as to familiarise the public mind
with the idea that the Constitution is something
more than a summary of negations.
'A great national work it is, indeed—the project'
• ed road, by which the great Valley of the Missis
sippi la to lay hold apoa the Pacific and lhas gain
another tributary ocean.
National in all its aspect*—in the grand scale of
its projection; in the soil over which it is to run; in
the connections which it is to form, and, above all.
in the mat results it contemplates.
Not many years ago the opinion was advanced
in the very chamber where this bill was recently
advocated, and by the very Senator who introduc
ed it, that the Oregon country would be and ought
to be independent of the United Slates, that a sep
arate Republic would be established there; and
that all we to do was to ascertain and establish
the just limitaof our claim m that territory, in order
that it might pe handed over to the inhabitants. In
duo time, free from all dispute with England. The
same opinion] was declared by Mr. Webster. How
little route distinguished statesmen know of geo
graphy ■ To jwhet little purpose did a grave Sena
tor read Huthboldt forty years ago’
The next generation will look back with aston
lahmeat at thp strangeness ot such an opimoQ on
the part of enimeonaen, and will regard it in some
suoh light as we (it this day would regard the
opinion that ihe country between the Alleghenies
■nd the Atlantic ought to be Independent and the
•eat of a separate Republic. The valley of the
Mississippi, lying between two great oceans, must
feave its connections with both-—beiag related to
both by equal affinities. Not only is Oregon in
dispensable to it, as commanding the coast of the
Pacific aod the means of access 10 it from the inte
rim, but California »>#q, because Cuiilorma occu
pies the «»nn» relative position towards the lower
portions of the Mississippi Valley which Oregon
frnltU towards the northern.
Both Oregon and California, then arc and must
beintegral parts of the Republic. Every man that
goes to either of the territories feels it and
knows iL The last memorial from the people of
Oregon, praying for a government, expressed a
feverish impatience for the coming oi ibe time
when they would be ‘living under and enjoying
the protection of the stars and stripes of our loved
country. 1 , , ,
The construction of a great natmnal highway
from the Mississippi to the Pacific, with a breadth
of one mile offend reserved and set apart for such
a purpose, running all the way through the heart
ofthe national domain, would open a grand artery
through-which the tide of our common national
life would flow, quickening every impulao of vital
ity, and imparting a continually renewing vigor to
every portion of the system. The time to begin
thfegrwt enterprise is now. Let the public land,
be made to Enhance their own value by furnishing
the means for the contemplated improvements.—
They could not be applied to a better purpose.

TELEGRAPH FROM ST. JUH.XS.
’ IMPORTANT COMMERCIAL NEWS.
[We avail ourselves of the following more ex«
tended telegraphic despatch received by the New
York Courier and Enquirer. Commercially the
newt i* of much importance.]
We received at a late hour last night the tollow*
ing bignly interesting and important summary ol
the news brought by the steamer Europaf which
left Liverpool on the 1 Oth and reached Halifax on
Wednesday afternoon.
We receive it by Magnetic Telegraph from Sl
Johns, New Brunswick, to which city u was ron
veyed by horse and steamboat Express from Hal
ifax.
Our despatch i* less full tbau it would have l>een
had not the Telegraph between St John and Boa.
ton worked very slowly.
The Commercial news, however, it will be seen
is highly interesting nnd important. Colton and
Floor have both continued lo advance and the
Stock market maintains its buoyancy.
The following is our despatch
SrSA>fk& CoMMooonx, f
Bav ot' Fundy, Thursday evening. |
The Royal Mail Steamship Kuropn, CapL Lott,
arrived at Halifax on Wednesday evening at ft
o'oliH-k. Ample and the very best arrangements
having been previously made lo express the newt
to St. John, vour agent left the city at about 5 o'-
clock. in company with Mr. Barnabee. the enter
prising and gentlemanly proprietor of the Western
Stage Line.
The road* were ol the worst possible description
even for Nova Scotia, ansing from the recent nnd
very heuvy fall of snow, the heaviest, it is said,
that has been tor the last SO years.
4 Bull, however, we made most excellent lime lo
Windsor, 4ft miles, where, on account of Mr Bar*
nabee's illness the ribands were handed over to
Mr. llomer M. Piolo, who is well known On the
line for his gentlemanly conduct nnd kindness to
pa.«?engers, and certainly they could not have fall
en into more worthy hands.
We left Windsor at U o'clock m the evening übd
nrnved right side up at DigbyGut, 101 miles, at *4
o'clock this, Thursday morning.
Most unfortunately, your agent was detained here
nil 3 o'clock this afternoon, m consequence of the
utter i nipossibihty of forcing a passage for the steam
ei Commodore through the ice with which Digby
Bay and (he Cut have been jammed full and bn It
mountains high, during 'he last ?4 hours, with the
lull for<*e of the steamer's engine wheel* and the
assistance of some twenty men. During the day
a chaunel has t*een finally made for her lo pass
out into the Bay of Fundy, and n >w everything
tools favorable lor a pleasant and -pcedy trip to
Sl John
As the new* wdt lie found of more titan ordina
ry importance your agent regrets exceedingly that
it was not iu hi* power to give it lo yon for publi
cation at an earlier hour this morning

SECOND DESPATCH.
The trade has been steady aince the find and any
change that has taken place in BreaxVtuffs during
tbnt tune has been upward.
» The market is now somewhat duller and langu id.
—American tloar is quoted at 26a to 27» tor WeM
era Cabal: 26s a 27s for Philadelphia. Baltimore.
New Orleans and Ohio 27s 6d to ‘23s Ad. A men
enn and Canadian White Wheat is now sold at 7*
3d to 7s 6d per 70 lbs, and Red 6s Ad to 7a.
Indian Corn haa latterly declined and prices have
receded. Prearnt price* are 30s a 3L* lor white,
and 31a 6d a 32s fir yellow.
For cured Provisions there is still n fair demand
and a good business doing in most articles of the
trade. The imports durtng the past fortnight are
2v*77 tierces and 143 barrels Beef, 232 barrels Pork.
2 casks Hams, 3 bbda. and 609 casks Bacon, 1437
barrels and 3314 kegs Lard,-303 sacks and 2310
boxes Cheese.
The wool market is very arm. the colonial wool
sales now going on ot the Hall of Commerce have
been so far, well attended by an nnusuallv large
number ol buyers from the manufacturing districts
and by a lew also from the continent.
The biddings nre very brisk at un advance of
i >1 lo 2d per lb. on the prices realized at the private
sales. Iu i ilasgow, us well as in Staffordshire, tbe
iron trade has again improved; all descriptions of
metals are in active request, aud higher prices arc
readily paid.
The stock market is improving, and American
is, as English securities are, again on the advance;
the demand for U. 8. 6 per cents still continues,
the price is one-eighth per cent higher, with every
appearance of another rise; very large umounls
have changed hands.
The buyers now being those bouses which are
as bankers to the •'onlinei t, the nmount on hand
□tiering even at 107 per cent is very limited.
Maryland Blerling 3 p«r cents have been sold
with remarkable steadiness, nt prices rising Irom
75 to 73; last quotuUon 73 to 30 per cent.
The general opinion is, that ii will be sold at '•5,
and even then it o low when compared with the
income, derived from it.
Pennsylvania 74 : Ja 7fr, rates per cent neglected,
and will possibly remain so until alter the decision
