At length, after a sitting of eighteen
months, only interrupted by the brief
intervals occupied in the elections, the
Legislative Assembly of France has ad
journed to the 1st of October next.
At the last sitting but one, during an .

indisposition of a eholerian character threw I show on the second Tuesday of October
some odoom over the termination of the
visit at Havre, but his reception appears
to have been very favorable, sharing, how
ever, the general popular applause, in that
district, with M. Thiers and Gen. Chan
garnicr. Paris and the surrounding districts, in
conformity with the new law, has been
relieved from the martial law, and tran
quility has been perfectly maintained
during the week.
The French funds are well maintained,
and in many branches of trade there is a
decided improvement. The quantity of
cotton imported into Havre has considera
bly increased, being 318,099 bales, from
15th January last to 31st July, against
225,108 bales imported in the correspon
ding period of 1817. The sales this year
have also considerably increased, and
moreVommercial activity prevails at Havre,
than for a long time past. Ship building
however, is by no means in a flourishing
state.
The prices of bread in Paris is rather
on the rise, notwithstanding the reported
harvest.
The French Government, it is said,
have received information that Austria had
applied to Bavaria for military assistance,
and that the latter power was about to
send 50,000 troops to protect the Austrian
capital.
Tho modification of the Ministry was
thought likely, by the retirement of Messrs.
Dufaure and Odillion Rarrot.
The troops left at Rome by Gen. Oudi
not have exhibited strong feclinars of dis
satisfaction at not being permitted to return
to France; the object of the expedition
having been accomplished, they deem it
not only an act of injustice, but of cruelty
to detain them any longer from their fami
lies and friends.
The Court of Assizes, at Marseilles, had
just commenced the trial of the - rioters,
amounting to 150. Out of this number,
57 were found guilty, and sentenced to
various kinds of punishment, from trans

The accounts from Vienna are of much
interest, the entrance of the Hungarians
from Coraorn into Raab is fully confirmed,
and they only differ as to the booty which
was secured in or near Kaab by the Mag
yars. The greatest alarm was excited in
Vienna and Presburg by the news of the
advance of the Hungarians, where outposts
are said to have appeared.

We stepped into the Court House a few
minutes to witness the deliberations of
these solons, and never did we behold
such a wo-begone gathering. They seemed
to be conscious that the 'Taylor ization of
the Whig parly had broken its spirit.
There was no contests either for the honor
i of scats in the Convention, or for nomina
tions to office, and hence Henry M. Fuller
of Luzerne, was nominated without a dis
senting voice, all seeming to agree that he
might just as well be defeated by John A.
Gamble, the Democratic candidate, as any
one else.

difference and apathy manifested on this
occasion, we copy the following conclusion

The First aad Second Washington.
An effort was made the other day, by
one of the organs 'o bring down the First
Washington to the standard of the Second
Because Col. Washington, when a young
man, was confused by the unexpectedly
high-wrought culogium paid him by the
Speaker of the House of Burgesses, there
fore his public speaking is to be leduced
the same calibre as Gen. laylors. but
Gen. AV'ashington, at a more advanced pe
riod of his life, performed two tours in the
United States, and received and delivered
public addresses with great propriety and
displaying that strong common sense, in
dignified language, for which his whole
correspondence was most remarkable. In
those excursions, in his private letters, in
the w hole administration of the govern
ment, he exhibited a high and dignified
character, far superior to his successor, the
counterfeit Washington.
Mr. Wirt, in his life of Patrick Henry,
tells the following anecdote of that great
orator, to show the high opinion which
was entertained of Washington by his as
sociates in the first Congress.
"Congress arose in October, and Mr.
Henry returned to his native county.
Here, as was natural, he was surrounded
by his neighbors, who were eager to hear
not only what had been done, 6ut what
kind of men had composed that illustrious
body. He answered their inquiries with
all his wanton kindness and candor; and
having been asked by one of them "whom
he thought the greatest man in Congress,"
he replied: "If you speak of eloquence,
Mr. Rutledgc, of South Carolina, by far
the greatest orator; but if you speak of sol
id information and sound judgement, Col.
Washington is unquestionably the greatest
man on that floor." Such was the pene
tration which, at that early period of
Washington's life, could pierce through
his retiring "modesty and habitual reserve,
and estimate"" so correctly the unrivaled
worth of his character.'
How long would it take the Second
Washington to win anything like such
praise from the lips of. any-of the great1 hive others take a start, never thinking of
stntcsiucu of the pa?t-a-id present day? 'himself.
The country has been sufficiently hum
bugged about the Second Washington. A
bold correspondent of the Philadelphia
Sun professes to say that the late Procla
mation was written by Gen. Taylor him
self, at Harrisburg, and transmitted to
Washington. Will the National Intelli-
gencer endorse that statement?
Tracc
Gen. Washington s
corresDondence from
'5 1 to the day of his death; and when any
is produced from him which can compare
with the miserable horse letter, or the
Grandin letter, we will then admit that in
point of composition the First Washington
did sometimes sink to the same grade with
the Second. JVash. Union.

a few days since I met a professor in one
of your first colleges driving his ox team,

That a single man often gives a tone not
only to his own age, but those which fol
low it, is proven by the testament of the
great Czar Peter, recently published in the
columns of an English journal. All know
how that shrewd and sagacious prince
lifted his nation from a state of semi-barbarism,
during the course of a single gen
eration, into the position of one of the
greatest powers of Europe. The princi
ples which governed him, his successors,
(with the exception of the unfortunate
Paul) appear to have blindly followed;
and a study of history will show that all
he proposed for his descendants has, to
the present day, been almost literally ac
complished. One of the clauses of his
testament recommended the division of
Poland, by raising up disorders and jeal
ousies. This was done by exalting Au
gustus of Saxony against Stanislaus, the
protege of Charles XII. , and the result was
the annihilation of the Polish Republic.

recommendations, and the result has been
what he foresaw the dependence of one
half the German sovereigns of his descen
dants. The Czar enjoined that the alliance
of England and Austria should be carefully
sought, and this has ever been done; so
that in her time of trial, Russia was subsi-
dized by the first, and now makes use of
the last as a cat's paw. The ninth clause
ol the treaty is most singular, and theretore

When the American army left, every

every concern should be annulled, as soon
as it forfeits the confidence of the public,

The scheme of shinplaster banking is
made a business, by a small, but very en

black-coat gentlemen. They hunt up a
dormant charter, elect directors, appoint
officers, execute bills, discount the notes of
men of straw, say 8100,000, circulate the
bills as widely as possible, and then let

Superiority of American Manufac
turers. The Dry Goods Reporter pub
lished in New York, states a new and
striking circumstance in relation to the
successful competition of American manu
facturers with foreign. ' It says, the "fur
ther importation of mousseline de laines
for American consumption must prove a
losing: business. We have examined the
patterns of the foreign fabric in comparison
with the production of our own manufac
tures, and are satisfied that the former
must yield the palm to the latter, both in
point of style and finish." According to
this, the American manufacturers will have
the trade entirely to themselves.
