' We published lasLweek an extract of a letter from a gentleman in Mexico to the Editor of 'tfcie Louisville Advertiser, giving the gratifying intelligence that our treaty with Mexico was concluded and ratified by the Mexican congress, and that our commerce with that country was now, for the first time put Under the protection and regulation of a treaty.! The letter also spc c tally stated, that the inland commerce between Missouri and New Mexico was freed from all hazards and restrictions., and protected from interruption in, Ats transit. This is indeed gratifying news for the whole Union, and par ticularly for Missouri; and as the1 letter was "written irt Mexico, and addressed to the Editor of the Advertiser, and dated as late as the 10th pi August, we may confidently rely upon it as true. This then, sets the seal and crown upon 'Jackson's diplomacy, It is a treaty that all that Adams and Clay and Poinsett and Sergeant could do, laboured for in vain. During four years they could not obtain it; in two years Jack son, Van Buren, and Anthony Butler have done the. business"! This seems to close the list of brilliant trcatiesjand to complete the suc cess of Jackson's administration abroad. The view of so much sucecs's abroad involuntarily - forces the suggestion, why he has not been equally successful in his measures at home? - and the answer presents itself at once. Because abroad he had no factious opposition to en- 5 counter ; at home he has been impeded and era - barrasscd at every step. ; The coalition could - not go to Londou, Paris, Mexico, and other lhrcign capitals, to counteract him with in trigues and treachery ; but they can go to Wash- - Inffton .City, and can get into both houses of congress and there play off their unprincipled opposition against him. It is there that open enemies, and secret traitors, and shameless apostates, have counteracted and counterwork ed him, and defeated the ; great measures which he has rcccommcndcd for the good of the coun try. The fact is, President. Jackson has had no chance at home ! Senators and represeita ti vesi trampling upon the will of their consti tuents, and joining the enemy against him, ban e embarrassed his administration, and de prived his first term of half its fruit. A second ter m is indispensable to the success of his mea surcs, and to give him a fair chance. That second term the people will assign him, and - -will give, him friends in congress to sustain him; and then his-administatioa at home will be as successful as it has been abroad, j... One other rcflection suggests itself to us. It " this; under whose tiuspices Have all these brilliant treaties been concluded? Who was Jackson's Secretary of State when they were conceived; matured,, and conducted to their splendid terminations ? jit was Martin Van liurenl and this brief answer oversets a pyra- . mid of abuse which has been erected upon that gentleman's name. lb.

Thc-death wound to the Constitution of the count ry h to he people's rights, to a free representation in Parliament, has been aimed, has been struck : but we still feel confident that national liberty will not expire under the wound : we st ill hope that there subsists iii the hearts of Englishmen a strength and a resolution which will enable them to outlive the blow. There is no fainting, no irresolution, but, on the con trary, so far as time will permit us to observe, unbounded determination to renew ther exer tions with redoubled energy.

Thank God, there arc ways by which the in vaders of the rights and properties of the peo ple can be managed. When a Housepf Com mons leaves the Government and the nation the remedy is a dissolution. When the House of Lords stands out against the Ring and the na tion, the remedy is a fresh creation of Peers. Without this remedy the Constitution would fall to pieces, and the people would be left a prey to anarchy. On Monday Lord Ebrington brings on a motion on the state of Public affairs in the House of Commons. The result of that vote may, of course be (anticipated. It will place the two Houses in j collision, and Minis ters must either resign or create new Peers to get over the difficulty. Lord Grey has solemn ly stated that he will stand or fall.by this bill, and that nothing less efficient shall be support ed by him. Fellow-Countrymen let us be firm let us be prudent, that we may ensure the victory which must be ours with "wisdom. The opponents of the Bill are playing a despe rate game. But if we be firm and determined they-must-be defeated. Chronicle. Some Member of the opposition, anticipating the numerical triumph of his party, this mbrn ing, called to the Minister to resign, and the challenge produced an answer which is the omen oi complete success. The Minister will not resign, and the Opposition must be beaten.

The confidence which the monied people not ujijustly feel in the King and his Ministers is shown by the fact that there was but a -slight variation in the Funds, this morning, on the news of the Lord's division. The confidence ot the people will be justified. The Kin? wiu be firm. The country will be saved. Gloe.
