Arrival of the Stcams§ni1) Elibernia.
Sixteen Days Later From Europe.
The steamship Hibernia, Capt. Judliins,

thirteen days from Liverpool, with London
papers to the morning of the 4th inst. ex-
pressed to Liverpool by VViliner‘ ts; Smith.
The news is of considerable iriiportnnce.
Spain has been revolutionized, and Esp:ir‘-
tero is a fugitive in Portugal. Narvzivz is
now Lieutenant General, and the Duke ol
B-aylen Guardian to the young Qut'e‘n.-~
This almost bloodless revolution h IS been
promoted, doubtless by the iritrigur-s and gold
of France. Espaitero was known to incline
’t'oa Commercial 'I‘i‘e-aty with Engl.|l)d,
which precipitatel his downfall. It is sup-
posed that there is an understanding between
Louis Philippe and the ex Qireen Christian
na, by virtue of which the King‘s youngest
son, the Due d’Aumale, will marry the
young Queen, and thus cement the alliance
between France and Spain. Meantime thi-
Grvernment is pennyless, the people factions
and the whole country in a wretclied condi-
tion.
Great Britain is more prosperous and her
industry better employed than for years past.
The M inufttcturing Districts are in the main
busy and tranquil, except that the Anti-Corn
Law agitation is pressed with great vigor.
There is an active demand for cotton Goods
for the China market. No change in Mon-

In Irelanl, the progress of B-rpeal is still
onward. O’Connell continues to aldress
immense assemblages of enihusi rstic Repeal-

troops into Ireland, and can find nothing for
them to do.
From France and Germany there is very
little.
India is tranqtiil, and the British conquest
of Scindc is complete. A handsome revenue
and great commercial advrintagcs are ex-

of trade, it cannot be questioned that this
great falling oflihris been principally occi-
sioned by the duty which has been laid on
foreign articles that compete with our labor.
The English admit this. and contend that
unless our tariff be modified they cannot ex-
pect to send their goods to this country as
forrnerly. It is not very probable, with the
rapid increase of our population, that there
has bet-n any reduction in the value or quan-

therefore, that every dollar which has fallen

Body Fazutrl.-—Soine gentlemen from this
city were fishing near the marble quaI'l‘y in
Milford on Saturday, when they accidental-
ly found the body of a man in ‘a shallow
stream. He was in a state ofdecay, having
been dead apparetly some \\'et.‘l\’S. His
clothes betrayed poverty, anal nothing could
be found tipon his person to indicate his
name or residence. It was conjectured that
he was a crazy man seen in that. region
some time since, and it is supposed, drrring
the recent rise ofthe small streams, he must
have fallen in and been drowned.

“Business generally coirtianes to iurprove,
and prices of most tll'llt:li'S of lliL'TCll&lli(liZt’
are firm. The activity of lrusiness has not
yet occasioned any inci‘easet‘l demand for
money. On the conti‘.ii‘y, the supply is if
possible more abundant. It is certain that
the resources of the community are very
much within their control and it is probable
that a larger‘ than ordinary share of busint-ss
is done for cash. Should the inrprovernr.-ni
in business be equal to what stiems now gen-
er.rl|y expected, an ll’lCl‘t*:1S'n'.l inquiry for
money will doubtless arise. Some of the
banks anticipate b:-ing able to obtain alrigh-

casion considerable shipments of specie. we
do not look for any material change during

extract of a speech ufJolin C. Calhoun, on the‘
Tariff 0.1816 :
‘-Mr. Calhoun said:
“'I‘h.it he was no manufacturer: that
coming from the South he and his constitu-‘
ents had no interest but in the cultivation of
the soil.”
‘That to afford manufacturers hmple pro‘-
tection would enable the farmer to sell his
products Iiig/L, and buy all his wants and
conveniences of life c/reap.
"That the 'I‘;rrifi' for protection was of
vital importance to the security and perma-
nent prosperity of the Union."
“That it would produce an interest, strictly
American as much as agriculture, and far
more so than con‘-mt rce and navigation.
“That it would produce a new“ and most
pflltie’/fI1,lCc7)I£’7tl far outweighing any objec-
tions that might be urged against the system,
“That it would preserve us from ti new
