" Xt is thought that the Western part of our State i more thoroughly drained of a circulation than any other part of it ; and it ariiea from the fact, that for eight months or two years tho Agency at M organton baa been curtailing slowly, but con stantly, its loans, and with but a slight exception discounting none. Whilst the mother Bank and the other institution hare, it is believed, never ceased entirely to loan their funds. To this cause may be added that there remains in somo, if -not all of the Western eouoties, unsold, a larger quan tity of stock than is usual. In fact thcro has becu no demand for the article whatever. If tho poo. pie could be enabled to sustain themselves till the next full, that they might bring their stock into market, t be- sold even at red uovd.ru tcs ; in the mean while curtailing their expenses, avoiding an increase of debt, and arranging, by transfer from one to another, what debts could be so arranged, -fttL'ht-Kp4hat-ult-protratHHi-br1 -rukv might bo avoided. To effect this, so desirable a result, I think that but a small increase of good paper would be needed. It would mako up in ac. tivity -vhat it lacked in quantity. It would revi vify expiring hope and stirnulato despondence. At all events, there should be enough to produce these results. There is no institution to which we can look for effecting this, but the State Bank, through its Agency at Morgantun. Will she do it? I have taken the liberty of supposing some of her objections to the measure, and attempted to shew their fallacy. There may be others : It -Bright be sai(H " wa are watting tiH we see what will be produced by that unleavened mass called Congress."

Our Banks have less to fear at this time than at any former period. There is no United States Bank. " There is no Sub-Treasury system, and thcro wdl be no Board of Exchequer.

'Lubbock and Maiuft (who had es caped) were still at large, Kendall had not nrrived, but was expected on tho 1st of February. Ho had been heard from, and was in good "health. The second division had suflered very much in consequence of wet weather and miserable food. The Bmall pox had broken out amongst them, several had already died of it, and somo fifty were left on the road in consequence of being unable to travel. ' The first dlvu sion, in which Mr. Combs arrived, had fared much better, os the weather was dry and pleasant ; nnu the foreigners and fe males on the road had supplied their wants as far as it was in their power. The Bri tisfi minister demanded that MrTFaTconer, who is a British subject, should be given up. Santa Anna immediately give orders for his instant liberation, upon his arrival in the city. Young Combs was imprisoned in a dungeon, or in chains upon his arrival, and in consequence of the dampness of it, had-Most his hearing and was kept for thirty days, although our minister had op. plied for bis liberation on the day of his arrival. So much for British and Ameri can influence in Mexico! Mr. Combs stales that he has frequently seen Kendall's passport, whiclj was written in Spanish. He also saw Randall, when he. was taken nut to be shot with some oth ers at San MijucI, show it to some Mexi can officers, who refused to notice it, until one of them snatched it from him, tore it in pieces and trampled it under foot.

Whig Coiiveutiou. Tho Whigs, os will bo seen by demon strations in this paper, are recovering from the apathy-arid irresolution produced by the astounding defection of their loader, and arc arming with fresh courage. for the on set. This is all that is wanting to ensure certain victory. -OurTnajority in the State is large, but not so overwhelming, that wc can conquer. nd sleep on our posts.

No Whig in North Carolina,- in view of the eminence which the State has obtained under Whig administration, can hesitate as to his duty. We ask nothing more, than that every citizen of the Old North should appreciate the importance of his vote. A good sound victory of the old stamp, from this Slate, would revive the spirits of our friends over the whol Union. Let us then commence at once, and in earnest.

" I allude to tho rapid spread of.wbat is called PusEYisrc among the members of the church. The proselytes to these opinions are among the most talented,' And in some cases the most influential, of tho hitherto undoubted orthodox sons of Episeopacy. The lead, ers in this new schism are Dr. Pusey, He brew Professor in the University of Oxford, and Canon of Christ Church Mr. New. man, Fellow of Oriel College, and Vicar of St. Mary's, in Oxford; and Mr. Keblk, the late Professor of Poetry in that Univer sity all men of great talent, and of no or dinary stamp of mind. These men, and many others who have espoused the cause, ' are uctively engaged in printing and distri buting what they term the Oxford TraettA These are already about ninety in number, and advocate the following doclincs: That tradition (meaning thereby something un written handed down from the apostolic times) is no less from God than tho Bible, and-that-Scripture-and-tradition together are the joint rule of faith. That the sacra- mcnts, not preaching, are the only means of grace. That none are justified but in baptism. That all baptised infants are jus tificd and regenerated. That faith doei not precede justification, but justification precedes faith, and that baptism Creaks faith. That if a man sin more than once after baptism, there is no forgiveness, though he repent. , That the Lord's Sup. per may lie administered to dying inseasi. bio persons, and even to infants. That ministers in the Apostolical succession have the gift of making bread and wine the body and blood of Christ. 1 hat they have the keys of heaven and hell entrusted to them. That the church of Rome is a true church ', but that all the Presbyterian churchesj.su.eh as the established church of Scotland, the Dissenting churches in England, and the Reformed churches on the continent, are no churches; consequently, their ministers are no ministers, and their sacraments no ancxarrieiits: thajLthey arc not in covenant with God: and that Christ has not promised! to bo with them, but with those only who are in the Apostolical succession the Epis copalians. That it is contrary to the teach. ingof Scnpturo to bring forward the atone ment explicitly and prominently on ail occa sions. That the church of England no where restrains her children from praying for their departed friends. 1 hat the mass is a sacrifice for the quick and the dead ; and that the great and good men, whom the Protestant world ha ve hitherto dignified .with thctitlo of Reformers nud hailed as benefactors to their race, are but Reform ers, so called. The Oxford Tracts also maintain that the" Bishops arc Apostles to us ; Christ s figure aud likeness, as certainly a if wo saw upon each of their headajL cloven tongue, like as of fire. Ihe Dis scnters are called a mob, and assailed with the most opprobrious and vulgar language. Such are some of the delusions put forth by these men, and they meet with tho partial support ofa great muny who cannot go the entire length, but adopt them in part, both in belief and practice, each according to his measure of credulity. Tho doctrines of free trade arc gaining large additions to their1 advocates, and will shortly, I think, be .triumphant here; they will achieve their first victory, I think, in an hnportant-modificatforrof the corn laws, whicli the administration will introduce early next session of Parliament. Mr. Christopher, a member for Lincolnshire, who is high in tho Ministerial ranks, both from his connexions and his standing as re presentative of one of the largest agricultu ral counties of England, lately made a i . . ...i.: A : . vftfM speecil 10 ins constituents, which is gene rally regarded as indicative of the opinions and tho intentions of the Cabinet. Mr. Christopher considers that the law should aim at fixing the price of wheat as nearly as possible between 56s. and 65s. thequar tor. This he pronounced to be the extent of protection which may be justly elaimetd for the farmer's well being, and conceded without unfairness to the rest of the com munity. And this, or something like this, he proposes to secure by affixing a mi, am urn duty of Gs. per quarter upon wheat, when the averages amount to or exceed the sum of 65a,; and then, as prices decrease, increasing the duties (at what rale1fedid not say) till it arrives W its maximum, of at least 20s., or at most 30s. Taking it at 20s., it must be allowed that this would be a most material change. As tlic scale at present stands, the duty on wheat, when selling at 05s. per quarter, is 21s. and 18d.; when at 50s., is 30s. 8d.; when at 38s. per quarter it amounts to the height of Bos, 8d. A concession which substitutes 5s. for 21s., and 20s. for 53., is certainly a very considerable abatement on the part of the agriculturists ; and, looking at the quarter from whence these statements have ema- Inatcd, they fnayVbe safely .regarded as what the ruling party will propose in far liament. The public journals, however, in the opposition, say that Mr. Christopher's plan, coupled with some proposed altera tion in the taking life averages, will make the corn laws more oppressive to the con sumers than they arc at present. Candid men of all parties admit that, if Mr. Cs scale of duties was accompanied with some judicious changes in the mode of taking the averages, it would cssentinlly benefit the poorer classes. But all who judge fairlv and impartially say that nothing but a fired tow duty will.be a-radical remedy. Tho British Government must, I think, very soon become convinced of the inutili ty , if not of the - ruinous consequences, of restrictions upon trade and commercial in. tercourse. On this bead it Jrinv, be stiffi. cient to remark that their prohibitory laws against the exportation of macjupery have led to the erection of establishments for the purpose of supplying the continental de- rl v . e venr pa rt of Eu rope. If it was imagined that such an arrangement would prevent the continental nations from becoming tcqwinted with thff xatare of English ; mechanism - the ' supposl'ion has peen ;most signally disproved. , Jcraingi the far-famed establishment f the Messrs; Oockerilt'near Liege j-is , the largest of mtue csiauiummcnisy employing tu ivt yaw rious departments (which Includes the mi ning of coal and Iron are) 2,000 workmen, nearly all of whom are native Belgians. Ihua.by their own suicidal act, in this es tablishment alone, have the British Govern. ment deprived 2,000 British artisans of regular employment and good wages ; for all tho work now done at Serauig by Bel. gians would, but for these prohibitions, have been executed by liriiwh workmen at home. From .Seraing, as from a great model esta blishment, has gone forth a host of skilled artificers, well versed hi every respect with the English principles of division of labor and mechanic skill, who have planted imi- lar concerns In other parts of Belgium. : So far have Belgian skill and industry already advanced, that, in all articles prepared by individual taste and talent, she is greatly ahead of England ; this is particularly the case in piano fortes and cabinet ware io general. In 183G the number of iron founders, engineers, ' millrights, arfd m chme-makers ernployedat Bolton, IrTLan. cashire, was 2,1 10 ; in 1841 there was only 1 ,395 ; showing a falling oil of 715, a con siderable part of whom have left tho counr try, some for the Continent, others for the United States, carrying away their skill and experience to enrich the rivals ol Great Britain in- their respective branches of pro. ductive industry.

In France employment is abundant, both for agriculture and manufactures; the low. est class of laborers carp 2sr jcrxday. Me. chanics from 3s. 6s. according tolheir skill. With these earnings they live comfortably. and generally lay by something. "So far from hearing of unemployed persons, says U-merchant who is engaged in very exten- sivc business in one ol tho principal sea ports in France, " I am always at a loss to find men to do my work, and in this I am not alone, for many good undertakings are unconmienced for want of hands.

The wheat crop has been deficient this year; I have conversed with many intelli gent persons on tho subject, and the gene- rui impression is, tnui it is iuii vnc-njui oo low an average, ns to actual produce; this offers but a gloomy prospect for the poor, nnd will add very much to the embarrass ment of ministers, as speaking trumpet. tongucdVrio behalf of some radical change in tho corn-laws. England must be relieved from her su- pcrabundont population by some means, or, if the number of mouths cannot be dimin ished, the quantity of food mu9t be increas ed. Emigration has lately had a powerful effect upon this subject : from 1821 to 1831 the annual emigration from Great Britain to all parti was 20,923 ; from 1832 to 1839 it was 60,155 ; in 1840 it was 83,746. ' Of this number, 27,025 emigrated to the Bri tish North American Colonies ; 38,495 to the United States; 1,935 to tho West In dies; 513 to the Cape of Good Hope ; 15, 775 to Australia, New Zenland, and Van Dieman's Land.
