By an American I lore my country's pine-clad hills, Her thousand bright arid gushing rills, Hei sunshine and her storms; Her rough and rugged rocks that rear Their hoary heads high in the air, In wild fantastic forms. I love her rivers deep and. wide, Those bright streams that seaward glide To seek the ocean breast, Her smiling fields, her pleasant vales, Her shady dells, her pleasant dales, The haunts of peaceful rest. Move the forest dark and lone, For there the wild bird's merry tone Is heard from morn till night, And, there are lovely flowers I ween Than e'er in eastern lands were seen, In' varied colors bright. Her forest and her valleys fair, Her flowers that scent the morning air, Have all their charms to me; But more I lore my country's name, Those words that echo deathless fame, "The land of Liberty."

Bancroft and Walker have just struck a blow one for the trevenue Urn- i'.and the other for the ''revenue stan dard." which is calculated to command the attention of the nation. We said, some weeks ago, that the tariff system must "be reduced to the revenue standard;" and that the tariff of 1842 can scarcely stand as the , permanent system of this great country. It is too unequal in itself too oppressive upon some interests, too partial to others too favorable, to the rich, too burdensome to the poorer classes of the community. The sooner it is reduced, the better for all. It is better even for the manufacturers themselves to understand on what they Calculate. It is better for, the rich capitalists to have moderate and stable duties, than those which are too high, and, on that account, never fixed, but always unpopular and always fluctuating. It is bet ter for the tranquillity ol the. administration better for the prosperity of the whol people." We had determined, most respectfully, but in the frankest spirit, to follow up the remarks of these two distinguished secreta . ' . i - i i . r lanes wun a iew ooservauons irom our own pen, in this evening's paper, and to republish the substance of an article which we find in the Clarksville (Tennessee) Jejlersoiiian, and to produce two very in teresting facts which we find one in the "Richmond Times," and the other in the j Philadelphia Inquirer " We had these several articles on our table for our imme dite use to. day: We intended to show that the tariff of 1842 '-must be reduced to the revenue standard;" that it was calculated to pamper the manufacturing or favored in terest of the" country, at the expense of the farming, the commercial, or the oppressed interests; that,whilsi the manufacturers were deriving excessive profits from the tariff monopoly which they enjoyed, the farmers were burning their candles at both ends, receiving smaller prices for their produc tions, and paying higher prices for their manufactured goods. In the support of this single proposition, ! we have invoked the statistics ol the article which we repub lishthis evening frpm the New .York Evening Post." Ave we're about to make these appeals to an enlightened people,when suddenly a new ally appears in the field. This morning, we find the following arii cle in the columns of the "National lntelli genceriv We lay it before our readers, with some thanks to that paper; which are themore cheerfully offered, because we aeso seldom under obligations to that journal for valuable and liberal political ar ticles of this description iWe thank it for fnllinV our attention to the debate at all. Since reading the sketch of it in the intel- ligencer,":we have glanced our eyes, over ih- last "New York Albion,' (which has iusf opened an exchange with the Union, ,) an'tt we find the whole Rebate Jn its col urns, from5whch the tNatipnal lntelligen cet" jhas probably made-- its a btract. rOur own exchange with the principal .y.i- don rAnt hut nht vet comnleted.) MY VVe find maiiy more speeches in the Aj-J bion than are noticed in the Intelligencer; and those of Sir Robert Peel and others re- ported more tn extenso. We shall proba- bly hereafter give further extracts. We also find the following interesting remarks from the editor of the N. Y. Albion," upon the position of the English Premier, and upon me results which mav be expected to be developed by the great movements of the British people, & the liberal opinions of the Prime Minister. We put these remarks of the Albion" in the foreground, because .J m i hey furnish a key to the position of par ties in England, and the anticipated results of these great questions of free trade and the protective system. From the Albion. LORD JOHN RUSSELL'S RESO 4 LUTIONS. On reperusing our files by the last stea mer, we see no subject of so much impor tance, or that seems so big with events of the future, as the Subject of debate which took place on Lord John's resolutions. It is true that many ot, the London papers pronounce this debate a mere piece of par- y manoeuvre, and intended to show off my Lord John and his whig adherents in a sort of grand held day exercise, rather than as portending any marked result from the debate itself, or the vote taken on it., Such, indeed, was the opinion entertained of it bv members of Parliament them- selves; for we find that, on the second night of the discussion, the House was on the point of being '-counted out.?' as, the phrase is, because less than forty members were present.- But in the course of the speeches that were made, opinions were given, and ad missions made bv Sir Robert reel in rela tion to his views on free trade, that have astonished the conservative party, and brought with them the direct apprehen sions of the future. Bell's Weekly Mes or senger, always a steady conservative pa per,, and high in the confidence of the par ty, particularly that portion of it represen ting the landed property of the kingdom takes a most serious view of the state of affairs; denounces the Premier for having deserted the party that put him in power, and c?ls on that party to abandon him, seek another leader, and trust no more to his promises. It should be borne in mind, that "Bell Messenger" is by no means a violent pa per; on the contrary,- it has always been liberal and considerate in its views and its language; but it unquestionably " speaks the sentiments of the Duke of Richmond and the landed aristocracy. This want of confidence in Sir Robert Peel has been gradually reaching its present height; but it is the declaration of the Premier and of Lord John Russell in. the debate, that has spread so much consternation in the con servative ranks. Sir John Tyrell said that Sir Robert Peel had lost the confidence of the conservatives. 'If that be the case,' said Sir Robert, '1 will not beg back that confidence by the slightest expression of regret for the course 1 have taken.' Tur ning to Lord John Russell, he said, I fully admit all the principles involved in the second and third resolutions.? Now, these resolutions declare, first, that all laws im posing protective duties impair the efficacy of labor; and, secondly, that the i present corn laws check improvements in agricul ture. These are bold declarations; but what says Lord John Russell, the whig leader, to Sir John Tyrrell? Let not Sir John Tyrrell and the agricultural members ima gine, if they should propose a vote of want of confidence in her majesty's ministers, that 1 should support it. Again he said) I know that the best present mode for carrying out my principles, is to Jeave the present party in power.' From these bold and decided expressions, on the part of the leader of the two great parties of the coun try, it is inferred that a coalition between them may, at no distant day, be formed. We ourselves believe that, in the event of any great desertion of the Premier byJJie i conservatives, he would resort to such an alliance, rather than forego the completion of the great changes in the policy of the country which he contemplates. At pres ent, however, he seems strong enough to carry out his own system. The diminish ed hostility of the whigs makes him more independent; and the paucity of talent and influence, of the landed aristocracy in -the lower house of Pafliamentor rather the want of a leading man, who - combines all the great requisites of a' leader of a great body will render it difficult for the -landholders to pit a champion of adequate pow er and energy against him. The conjunc tion of circumstances is a marvellous one. fjere is a statesman placed at the, head of the country by a party- whose power he uses all his efforts to destroy, whose policy he on all occasions thwarts, and whose re monstrances he treats with indifference. In spite of all uf vvhat are- termed hi un popular acts, he itilf retains hismajorities in: the grand council, of the nation; and is able to bring in, discuss, andcarf -thcve- rf measures on whicn nis preaecessora were shipwrecked. That he is. absolute in his determination io carry out his whole system, there can be no doubt; this is ap pirent enough from the debate that is be fore us; and it is equally apparent that the malcontents' have not the power of ar resting his career. He seems to be an iairent wirh, irrevocable Dowers, acting in defiance of his instructions, and following the full bent of his own will. These consideration have induced ma ny thinking men to examine his measure" with a view of ascertaining if a policy so vigorously adopted and pertinaciously ad hered to, be not in reality the true one; whether Sir Robert Peel he the master spirit of the age, or the victim of selfish expediency, prompted by jacobin tenden cies and inclinations? The result of these inquiries, we believe, has been, that most of the men of business throughout, the three kingdoms are converts to his policy; and hence the secret of his success The merchants, the banker, the fund-holders, and the manufacturers, or the bulk of them, approve of his system, and encourage him to proceed. So do a laige portion of the most eminent politicians men of such dis- nction as the Duke of Wellington and Lord Lvndhurst, for example. W e do not see, then, that any change of measures can, at present, take place; on the contrary, we may, expect the Maynooth bill, and the bill for establishing new colleges in Ireland, to become laws ere the present session clo i . . i .it . l ses. And in me next session, snouia ine peace of Christendom remain undisturbed, may look forward to further relaxations in i he commercial code, to fresh concessions to Ireland, and to a continuance of thoste mea sures which Sir Robert Peel deems essen tial to the safety, honor, glory, and pros perity of the British empire. And now, we respectfully ask, whether, amid these signs of the time, here and abroad, of the ftourishine condition of manufactures in the United States; amid the extravagant profits they are reaping; amid the profitable exportations o! our man ufactures aoroad, to compete with foreign unprotected fabrics, and the labor-saving machinery which we are inventing; amid the reduced prices of our agricultural pro ductions; f amid the advances in England, among her people and their ministers, to j free and more liberal system; while free dom from artificial shackles seems stamped upon the age itself, and promises to become the great law of the highest improvements of civilization, can we stand quietly rec onciled to the act of '42? Can we regard it as immutable as the laws of the Medes and Persians? Or, shall we not say, the act of '42 can scarcely stand as the permanent system of this great country. It is too un equal in itself too oppressive upon some interests, too partial to others- too favora ble to the rich, too burdenso-ne to the poorer classes of the community?" Or shall we not rather say wiih Mr. Walker, The tariff" it must be reduced to the revenue standard?" From the N. Y. Journal of Commerce. Privileges of Postmasters., We have just seen a letter from the pen of the Post master (leneral, under date of Julyl2, from which we make the following extract: When subcribers refuse to take Pamph lets or Newspapers from the office, Post masters are now, as heretofore, required to notifv Editors,"&c, and may frank letters containing such notice From the Milton Chronicle. Shabby Treatment. -On Tuesday last a couple of candidates for wedlock) (both ! 1 XT' - - . A I . oi wnom live in v irginia; came io inis iowii to be married. They tied their horses to the rack, 'and the man escorted the woman to the Milton Hotel, thereto remain in a state of single blessedness until ho could step out and bring in one of the half dozen Squires that live in town. The news of a runaway match" soon spread over town, and a crowd of the curious soon assembled to witness the marriage ceremony. , Of course vve were there, watching the '-course of things." Well, after waiting until we thought the fellow had sufficient time to see all the Squires in the place, we began to grow impatient about his prolonged ab sence. . H e had been seen to go into a "grog shop, opposite the tavern, and we made bold to send a boy over there with instruc tions to tell him to come along and not be keeping the woman in suspense. " The tapster sent back word that, he was not there -that he had got a tickler filled with whiskey, cut out at the "back-door," & had not been seen from that time half an hour previous; -Now we got sight, of the lady's face, & a thought struck us her intended" had taken fright and sloped. After waiting some time, she concluded to ; go out and look after him she repaired , to the" place where they' had hitched, their horses, and finding her . lover's horseT; gone, she re marked that "he had no business to treat her so mean," and that "haVingV horse of her own she reckoned she could go where she come from," and off she rode. ? It i onr deliberate opinion that a man who; will thu hoax a woman ought, to have his name published to the .world, and we hereby tive it to the world as that of John Arnett, and ad vise all women in search of husbands' to slap the fallow in the mouth if ever he dares to mention courtship to them. Portsmouth and Roanoke Railroad. The 'Portsmouth NewEra says, that the Portsmouth and Roanoke Railroad have re newed the connexion with the VVilmington and Raleigh Railroads, which had been bro ken off for some time, through , ' the enter prise and public spirit of Willis Sledge, Eq., and others, who have put on an ex cellent stage line to fill the hiatus occasion ed by Rives' purchase. Another Terrible Steam Boat Disas ter -The Steamer Marqtjette, burst both her boilers as she was putting out from the wharf at New Orleans on Uhe rlst instant bound for Louisville.

Twenty eight are known to hare bei. saved, eleven dangerously wounded anc now under medical treatment, "ir v;' have died since the explosion an. 1 Evenly nine are still missing so that the pro'uibilir is that forty-two persons have perished by this single disaster .a Great Fire in the City of New York. A very destructive fire occurred in the ci ry of New York, on Saturday, the lGlL jnst. in which about 310 houses wese des troyed, and the loss in buildings and mcr chandise' computed at not less than 23,000,000, on which there. wa insu rance to the amount; of about $4,300,00v;.
