Suite of T'ra.dc in Englaiid 0/Nd‘ Ameri-
ca..——At present, ifnot absolute distress, much
cmbarrassnient and anxiety prevail in Eng‘-
land and A.mG1'ir.‘-'1. The British Queen,
which arrived on Tuesday last from N.York,
brings accounts of the continuance of a migh-
ty struggle with commercial and monetary
di.‘-Tficiilties. The €fli)l‘fS to pay their debts to
this country are C0ml)ln:\.‘Cl with ope.rations
incurring fresh liabilities to English capital-
isls.

The same vessel ivhich carries bullion
and bills of exchange representing produce
shipped, also brings bonds and post notes and
other promises to pay €:.\'01‘l‘-lf.'1‘JtlyfOl‘lmlI]e-
diate acconimodatioii. And it would seem,
ill‘-.'.f, although the means adopted by Eng-
lishmen to raise funds in America are not of
the some description, iieverthclt-ss the mar-
kets of the U States are rcsorzcd to for the
purpose of raising ready money.

It appears that immense quantities of mer-
chaiidize have within a inomh been sold at
l\'e\v-York and Pliiladclpliia, at low prices,
on account of the English owners. No
doubt the gain of such transactions rests
eventually with the purcliasers-—tlie loss
with the needy seller; but in the inc-antime,
additional pressure is put upon the Aineri-
can money inarket just whcn it most needs
relief.

This state of things is unnatural as well
as distressing. Perinaneiit, or even of long

Newspapers, and other periodicals, which
had formerly been loud in condemnation of
the locksmith, now blazoned abroad the rub-
fber’s confession, wondered how any man
.could even have been for a moment suspect-
red upon such evidence as was adduced upon
the trial; drew picturs of the domestic fe-
licity once enjoyed b_v the Sparks, and then
painted—partly from what was known of
.tbe reality, and partly from iiiiagination, their
sufferings, privations, and wrongs, in the
,-pilgrimage they had performed in fleeing
from an unjust, but darnnatory accusation.—
The «whole city rang with the story; old
friends and neighbors, who had been the first
to cut "them, -now became the loud and vehe-
ment partisans of the family. Every body
:was anxious to know where they were.
Some reported that they had perishid in the
woods; others that they had been burnt in a
prairie; while not a few believed that the
locksmith, driven to desperation, had firstde-

these stories, of course, created as much ex-
cite.-nient as the robbery of the bank had done
before, onlythat this time the tide so the
other way; and, by the time the poor .ock-
smith and his family,-who had been driven
like Vagabonds from the city approached its
suburbs, they were met cciigiatulattd, and

strange vicissitudes oftheir lot, they had be-
come objects of interest. in fact, theirs was
almost a triumphril entry; and, as the. pub-
lic always like to have a victim, they were
advised on all hands to bring an action a-
gainst the directors of the bank, large dairi-
-ages would, it was affirmed, be given, and

ducthis suit, and make no charge if a libel

Imporlaritfrom l/Vasiiingtoit.-——Extract of
a letter from an officer of the Army to the
Editor ofthe Courier and Enquirer:

‘V0 are on the eve of another Indian war,
likely to prove more expensive, as well as
destructive, to human life than the misman-
aged and shamefully pi'otracv.cd war of Flor-
ida.’ You are aware of the deadly feud that
existed between the Ross and Ridge parties
of Indians, growing out of the treatyiiniadu
through the agency of one Scliermerhorn
with the Governnieiit. The infar y oftliis
treaty was pretty well exposed in Congress;
since which the unkind feelings oftlicsu par-
ties towards euch other have been continual-
ly increasing, until at lasttho dcatli ofRidge
was the consequence. The Government
made a demand for the surrender oftlio per-
sons engaged in his murder, wliicli has cre-
ated a very strong excitement in the minds
of the liidiaiis, and this flaiiie has been fan-
ned so iiidusiiioiisly by some Seminoles sent
from Florida, that the gl‘(':8t“Si.=1ppl‘€l1€§Sl0flS
are Gnl£L’l‘ii1i!1CLl lest liostilities slioultl Di
mr-nced and spread ainong tlie-sui'i‘ouiiding
tribes ere they could be cliccl-:ed.

“An express has bccn received here from
Fort Gibson, setting forth the state ofthings
and the exposed condition of the whites to
the numerous tribes of lndians that the poli-
cy of the government has coticeiitiated in one
spot. Very serious apprcliensions are on-
teitiiined by the people, and an express
was dispaiclied yesterday to Fort Gibson
with orders to the coiniiiziiiding officer of
that post. Should all the tribes of Indians
west of the Mississippi unite against the
whites, we should then have an Indian war
more fatal in its consequences than any that
has been ivagcd for the last half century.’

How difl'ei'ciit is our condition now from
what it was when Geri. Jzickson commenced
his war upon the currency! When he said
that “all who trade on borrowed capital
ought to break!” \-Vlien his leading friends
cried out " Perish commerce, pf.‘i'iSl'l credit!”
W'lii-n tlicy 1‘«‘Ii:€(l the cry of “down with
the bzinlisl” and began to array the "poor
against the rich l” At that time, we had a
cyirrcncy which was equal alike every
where; all prudent, honest and industrious
people, in all the various trades and employ
ments, were doing it prosperous business, and
any man could calculate, with some assur-
ance, upon what was to be the result of his
business. A man who wished to transfer
money, could effect it from the most distant
parts oftlie Union, for a litilf of one per cent.
A man who wislied to borrow iiioiicy, was
not obliged to give more than 6 per cent per
annum. His life blood was not Sl1('l\'ld by

party in opposition will be our creed." Let
it not be inferred from this, however, that we
are prepared to give a lieariy concurrence
to any and every measure that may be ush-
ered into the world by Whig hands, or that
happens to have Whig sponsors at baptism ;
but the policy of the party, so far as it is
considered sound and orthodox, will ever
find in this journal a faithful advocate.’
The dignity of the principles in favor of
which we have here expressed our decided
preferences, will not, we trust, be compro-
mined by the use of unworthy means to sup-
port them. Our adversaries will be. treated
with c.andor—“giving the palm where jus-
tice points it due.” if it is possible, it is our
intention of letting it be seen, that ribaldry
and nersonal abuse are not more necessary
in the conductor of a public journal, than
in any other niember of the community.
Although politics will occupy a considera-
ble portion‘ of our attention, the general news
and miscellaneous" departments of the paper
will not be neglected. The lovers of the
lighter and more easily digested matter, will
find our outside columns enrichedwith tales
of a chaste, interesting and useful character.
One word more. \Ve have taken this con-
cern on our own book, without seeking the
countenance of any individual, or set of in-
dividuals. Our own will, therefore, will be
the guide of our conduct, and whilewe aim
at honesty and independence, courtesy and
deference will be extended to all. Trusting
that an adherence to the views contained in
this brief and simple introductory will bal-
last our craft, we “give our sails to the winds,”
leaving the issue, whether prospcious or dis-
astrous, in the hands of the public.

l\dASSACHU8ETT8 ELECTION.-By the
Hartford Courier of Friday last, we. learn
that returns from all but six towns intlie
State are received, which give Everett :1 ma-
jority of about 400 votes over Morton. The
six towns to be heard from, will not materi-
ally altcr the result. The Boston Atlas
thinks, however, that there are scattering
votes enough to prevent a choice; so that it
will devolve upon the Legislature to choose

The New York city journals have given they
names of Clay, Harrison and Scott. The_iii 

latter gentleman has but recently bet-ii,

thought of in this connection, and his qualil 

ificationis seem to be those ofa military char-
acter only. This is a consideration that
must, in the present posture of affairs
weigh against him The country needs the
‘talents ofa most consummate suitesmaii,wliicl1' 
cannot, it is thought, beclaimed by Gan.
Scott. It is not denied that he is a gallant
and patriotic soldier, who has rendered his
country no inconsidei-able service—tl'iat- his
intelligence, and iicquirements in literature
are very respectable, but he is equally with-
out the prt-tensi-ons as he is without the-er
periencc of a statesman. If then, Gen.
Scott is laid on the shelf, the choice is be-
tween Clay and Harrison. Gen. Harrison .
has distinguished liims-rlf at home and
abroad——in the field and various civil stationsv
and perhaps his popularity would be suffi-
cient to carry his own and the adjoining
states, but we-are persuaded that it is not ex-

tensive enough to wa rrunt his friends in bring-- ’

ing him forward. Bpsides, his energies have
in some measure felt the impairing hand of

time. Clay, then, is the only and most
probable candidate, and we give it at our
opinion, that there are but few men in the
country whose talents are so peculiarly a-
dapted to the exigency of the times, as are
the Governor, in which case, Everett, of those of Henry Clay, The manly. part he
