The letter is written in reply to a communication

it is evident that mach labor arid research hare been
spent in imspariar this lettm and the vast amount of
s: information which it emotains' will make it interesting
every reader, no-matter what may be his opinions
elf the subject dime/led. Mr. Walker is, and has al
..

tbeenteXation as early as Ins, and on all
*over et: emu since he has endeavored to make his
I tct popular with the people. Mr. Watazn's
4.i.iiiefers in fervor-et annexation are such as would be
_,stirged by all the statesmen of the slave-holding south,
they are not each as can find muck favor among
'://eishardy, frugal and industrious citizens of the north.

'`grafted oaksmnions. The advantages claimed
the friends of annexation are very problematical
-and remote, while ithewnia aro certain and immediate.
The Relent feeling of the free atates on the slave tree
'lnicel will never permit them to sanction any project
tics/tending its power, and as the south has evinced
stn unsernpulous disregard of the rights of their north
, • neighbors, there would be great danger in increas
bg:its power W an extent that might defy opposition.
do not suppose that any eonsiderable portion of
' free states are in favor of the course pursued by
.• kbolithedits of the day, but we feel certain that
a Mitre opposed to an extender) of the slave in
• teld -that they would rather let some of the
ehiva/ry of the Smith" go out of the knion than to
take in any more territory with the curse of Slavery
Awning over it.
We regret that the great length of Mr. Wm-Era's
ijetter will not permit-us to give the •whole of it to our

every condition in life are embracing its regenerating
principles. The man of capital as well as- the poor
man, the divine and the philambropist, all feel the
grievous oppression of the present state of society,
and are awakening to the sublime and radical reform
suggested by Fourier. The Rev Mr Ripley, one of
the Directors of the Brook Farm Association, speak.
iag of the "practical workings" of the to) stem, says:
"We have always been on a small scale, devoted
chiefly to Agriculture and Education; but cat rying in
to effect the principles of combined industry and a
unitary household. Our experience has been of the
most grntifiying character; our faith in the idea of As
sociation has eainede ten-fold increase; and noeerthly
temptation could induce us to abandon the wurk in
which we are engaged. In the three years we have
been together. we must havegathered some knowledge
of the practical workings of the principle, and we fully

Oar last circular advicen were under date of 13th
alt.. since when treosactions in imports have been to
a very Bunted extent, partly owing to the excessive
stocks of almost rill •descriptions of merchroulize,
which have been roach iucreased by very numerous
arrivals from all quarters, arid partly to the general
aversion of our dealers to purchuse at this season ofthe
year beyond their immediate wants. The increased
anchorage dues have been put in fete, also a stamp
duty on despatches. which amounts to about 14 rs.
per hbl. for flour, and 13 T's. per bag of coffee.
