EATON. STBlTIlTCr WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15.

We am sorry that tbe opposition loumals in this city do not make more of Ihe late nomination of Mr. Clay on Monday evening. Never, within our knowledge, has a political candidate received such faint and half reluctant welcoming from his own party. We mean no disre apect toour worthy contemporaries, hose condition we whose wry fares on this occasion move our sympathy but we must ssy that most of them appear to come into the support of Mr. Clay with all the ill grace of the valiant but unwilling gentleman who rata the leek, in Sliakspeare's play of Henry V.

must take occasion to remind them, hower er.that this ia not tbe way to promote iheaiiccess of their candidate. They have a great deal to do if they expect to enlist the feeling of this community in his favor, if they mean to force the father of the American system, with all his doctrines, down the throats of the people of New York, and it behovee them to begin early tui to labor earnestly. Neither Henry Clay personally, or Henry Clay's opinions are favorites here, and never will be, we venture to say, while the shores of this island are washed by the waters of the Hudson and the East River. It is, no doubt, thia unpopularity of Mr. Cray and of tlie high tariff doctrines maintained by him and his par tisane, that renders the opposition prints of tbis city so Unwilling.

to speak out on the subject. Their conductors know full well that npon bis success depends the con tinuance of the tariff system, and that with his defeat the system must fall, nor are they insensible to the feel ing of general disgust which bis nomination has ei cited. They an, therefore, for pursuing a cautious eourse. By pledging themselves to the support of Mr. Clay, they understand perfectly well that they pledge themselves to the support of the tariff, but they desire to keen that feature of the case out of sight.

In Ihn they will not easily succeed. Some of these journals, we perceive, are aiudiuusly Ondeavoring to vary the subject and to keep Mr. Clay out of sight while they attack the present Executive. Ope of them expresses great fears lest the Admioistra tion party shodd be left ithout a candidate for the next election, affirming that President Jackson, in the opinion of hia beat friends, haa in his message virtually declined being a candidate for a second term. It would give as sincere pleasure lo hear these 6est nenJe named in order that we might judge of their claims to the title.

The eupportera of the Administration certainly put no such construction on the menage. We take the liberty of assuring the journalist in question, that he may dia miss his appruliensions on our account, as Gen. Jackson will be a candidate at the next election, and there is no reasonable ground to doubt of his success. In the mean time, tbe prints in tbe interest of Mr Clay ill find sufficient employment in the task before them, of making clear his pretensions to the Presidency and persuading tbe people of this city to the support of bis system. The Banner of the Constitution, reviewing some of the principal topics of the President's Message, says of the Administration, that iu success on tbe negotiation with Great Britain, respecting the West India trade, the recovery of which is undoubtedly a great advantage to the country, we apprehend is not so much wing to tbe negotiator aa the Message admits.

It was the spirit of conciliation displayed towards Great Britain in the annual message of last year which accomplish' tbe settlement of that question. Kings and their ministers are, after all, but men, and we are quite per uaded that the continuance, at head of our affairs, of the same apirit which had characterised more than one administration, would have left tbe matter precise ly where it waa found." Them ia no candid man who will dispute that the en lightened viewa and conciliatory language of our Chief Magistrate on the subject of our' commercial relations with Great Britain, must, in the natural coursoof things, have produced a highly favorable impression in the British Cabinet, and no doubt induced Ihem to enter upon the often vexed subject of tbe restrictions on tbe Colonial trade in a apirit far more auspicious to the result which has crowned the negotiation, than they would otherwise have entertained. But in cheerfully according to tbe Executive the full praise to which his lilieral and dignified course entitles him, we must not forget that it is due, not alone for hia conciliatory expressions. but partly for the sagacity he evinced in tbeaelcrtionof suitable person to represent our Government at the court of St, James; nor should we witbhould from the agent himself the commendation to which his eminent Zealand ability entitle him. We expressed in this paper, while the negotiation was atill pending, on authority entitled to the utmost reliance, the opinion that was entertained in London, in the first quarters, of Ihe talents and deportment of Mr.

McLane, and we have no doubt trom all the means of information in our possession, that tbt final accomplishment of the object of our government is, in a large measure, to be ascribed to the intelligence, the assiduity, the urbanity, and manly candor and frankness of dealing which have characterized Ihe astrtiatioo on the part of that gentleman. While we fully agree with the Banner of the Constitution, that the way for a aueoaaaful negotiation waa prepared by ibe change of spirit in ouifgovemment as manifested in Ibe anrioo BMssage of tlie executive and that, had the sel Bsb and nosUle tons of lhantecedent administration been persevered in, the matter would have remained Where it waa found yet there is nothing in llie compli nantary aaention of Mr. McLane in the menace which we do not think ia richly deserved by that efficient re presentative of our country abroad.

QTlie Montreal papers inform us that for a few nights previous to the 9th init. they had been viiited with sharp clear flual.

Foriatcainf Post. North American Aratne Cnrisliaa JEi.imwer. The North American Review baa been acquiring reputation until its name eives no little authority to opinion and the Christian Examinor. in its literary pretensions, greatly superior to any religious periodical which Ihe country lias produced and yet tne last numoeroi eacn of those works, coutaius a gross libel upon our laws, anil therefore, in some sort, upon us, tbe people, who are the law makers.

The North American Review, speaking of imprisonment for ancient Gothic jurisprudence of Ureal Britain regarded and punished misfortune aa a crime. Our laws so regard it, and inability to pay his debts, whether produced by vice, general inefficiency, accident, or tlie hand of God. is held in this community lo be equally a crime for which the culprit is subject to be immersettinajsil.and that at the discretion or caprice of tbe creditor, who is authorized lo reduce his victim lo this penal bondage lo lhecndf his life," This extraordinary passage is extracted from an article (p. 522) hich, if 1 mistake not Hie style, and am not also misled by public opinion, is from tlie pen of a gentleman ho haa exchanged a career of unsurpassed literary eminence for one in politics, which may, perhaps, hereafter, but has not yet, yielded him equal honor. This gentleman moreover, an unquestionable philanthropist, and no one can doubt his inviolable regard for truth.

I certainly do not, though accustomed lo no little scepticism in resard to the integriry of professed politicians. The Reviewer, upon a auhject which it ia of vast importance that Die public mind should not be nprvnrtnl. Iim Dialed with einei force, in one sentence. as many false propositions as could well be confined in nrh immnHm. Inability lo pay a man'a debts ia not regarded in tbis country aa a crime.

1 apeak with knowledge in regard to mosi ot Hie stales, ana wua greet conuuewx mm all. Tlie debtor ia not, for the most part, sabject to be immersed in iail ai all. Imor sonment is not at the capice or discretion of Ihe creditor, much less is it perpetual or lo deny llie Reviewer's proportion in bis own eloquent phraseology, ihe creditor is now here authorized to reduce his victim to this penal bondage to Ihe end of hia life. Did the Reviewer obtain his information on this subject from Captain Hall, or from Lieut. Hall, or Lieul.

De Rooa, of travelling memory The lawa ol all ihe states are substantially the same in principle, though there is some difference in their ap Dlication. Take, for example. New York. Every im prisoned debtor hem can be discharged on a surrender of that nronertv which ihe law savs it is a fraud to keep. This is not imprisonment for muortune.

If Ihe debtor can get bail, ihe jail in which he is immerted, in tbis citv. is the same which containa 200.000 people, nei ther the discretion of ihe creditor nor hia caprice can de tain him within such limits even a single day and the period of Una bondage ia only such as is tliougtil sutti cieni io give nonce locreanors, ami secure iuir in ventilation of the aueation of fraud or. in other words, of the question whether the deblur has property. And the debtor is at liberty to challenge his creditors lo try this question, even before ho is imprisoned, and to obtain a general discharge. With tbe exception of thia latter provision, the law is tbe same in that very state in which the aforesaid para graph of the Koviewer was penned, in which be waa brought up, and hose foul and pestiienti.il atmosphere, if he speak truth, he has breathed during Hie greater part ot hia lite.

But it may be aaid, are there not casea in which an honest man is immersed injnil for debt? ll is possible this may be, 1 admit, but the cases are very rare and il imprisonment lor small debts were abolish ed, as it should be, they would be still more rare. Is the public to be abandoned because cases of imli vidual hardship occur 11 ao.men will never he arrested for crime because they may be innocent, and they never ill be tried, because Hie innocent may he convicted. Il is perlectly plain lo those who reflect upon Ihe suh jeet, that the law cannot be enforced againat debtors unless i ncy are neiu io oau in me nrsi instance arm llie necessary cuiisequcnce, if they cannot find bail, ia that they must be imprisonid. But how long ought they to be imprisoned Certainly only so long previous to their conviction ol Iraud as may be necessary to investigate that question. There might he much greater einedilion in most cases than there now is.

The delays winch actually exist are chietly owing to tne debtors themselves. bit let us hear the Christian Examiner on this subject In our opinion it (the protection of property) is carried loo far when ibe law authorises the imprisonment ol an honest debtor, btcauM he is unable to perform a contract he has made. ihey, (such laws) "are ihe relics of a barbarous age. and we truat to see them expunged from our statute books." No man is impntnnrd, because he is enable to perform his contract, but because he does not perform it. He is diicharqcd rum tmpri sonmenf.bccause he is unable lo perform his contract, that on his ow oath, unless llie creditor tan prove il to be false and this happens every day.

Surely it is not cruel to presume that a man is able perform what he ha promised, until lie prove the contrary. Let me now inquire of those tender hearted writers, as they seem to have considered only the case of misfortune, what they will do with that of fraud by which I mean a debtor's withholding his property from hia honest creditors. Is every debtor to go free upon his saying that he ia unable to pay Or is Ibis question In be fairly tried, and if so, is tbe debtor's ullimute subjection to Ihe sentence of the law to be secured as a matter of course? There is but one alternative, there must be no personal restraint, or there must be enough to effect Ihe object So multifarious are Ihe contrivances by which pro pcrty can be kept beyond the reach of llie law, that there is no mouo ui unnging lonn oui oj personal co ercion Our present system is contemptible, not for its herba rium, but for its inefficiency. Surb is the inhuman It" of the law in every stale where the common law ex Uis, that imprisonment on execution is deemed ao far satisfaction of Ihe debt that the execution creditor cannot, during the imprisonment, tourh tbe Drocrtvof his debtor. Consequently, when the limits of the gaol are as extensive as iney are nere, a creditor cannot do more foolish thing than to xmpriton hia debtor.

Some. thing would be done to rescue the law from deserved reproach it ihe debtor who does not surrender his property, or prove he baa none, his own oath beiiw admit. ted, were compiled to go wil hin the four walls until he sunmiiiea to justice. The two grand desiderata on this subject are to compel the dishonest debtor to nay. and to five a complete discharge to him who unfortunate, not merely from imprisonment, bat from the debt itself.

At a late meeting of the New York Literary and Philosophical Socio ly, Samuel L. Mitchell made the following communications: Two specimens of Ihe Ovovivipamua Shark, from Ihe Atlantic ocean, off Cape Hatteros. This animal, though a Huh. is viviparous that is, it brings forth hs young alive. But, what is very peculiar, to its little fish is sppended an egg.

and yet thia egg has no connexion whatever with the dam or mother fish. Tbe brood of fa tuaes have an independent or separate existence in the uterus; and each draws its supply of nourishment, before birth, from Ihe egg. This peculiar organization is one of the great ciirioaties of the animal rare and nrhlr deserves Ihe particular attention of anatomists and physiologists. Mr. Bloodgood.

Our sufferings under the mis named American Sys tem hare been great, and have been borne with signal patience it haa called lorth much discuaaion amongst the people, which, in South Carolina, has assumed a degree of freedom onlv known to Republics. "Slight, however, as is tbe alleviation of our bur dena, afforded by the measures referred to, yel it will furnish matter of sincere gratulation to all true friends of their country. They would fain reregniae in it tlie indication of a purpose on tbe part of a Federal Government to listen seam to the voice of justice: lo revert to ihe aound maxims of national policy, and vindicate the long violated principlea of the constitution.

Not in Ihe lost direction. From the Fh'iaitlpha Price Current. Havre Not long aince a friend suggested a plan for establishing a line of packets to mn regularly every month between this port and Havre, and as an earnest of bis belief in the success of such a pro ject, he offered to put one vessel in the line. It was his opinion that the trade between Havre and Philadelphia in a direct line, with the passengers, would be sufficient for a homeward business, and lhat the exports of Cotton, Rice, Tobacco, and Anthracite Coal, would afford an outward business, and ere king be an object of greater interest to Philadelphia than our previous business in those articles would lead us lo believe. The Chesapeake and Delaware Canal has already opened a trade lhat must greatly increase, if a regular con veyance is established lo carry it to market and for tlio same reason, our coasling business must throw many of the lighter articles of the south in our wav.

These articles requiring large quantities of ballast, the anthracite coal will aflurd an excellent substitute, and at the port of destination will bring a price equal tn the freight on any other article. Next year, contracts are oflered to deliver coal at our landings at $4 per ton. and from the competition and the facilities of delivering it, we shall not be surprised to find it selling at alesspnee. The great price of fuel in Havre at this time, will direct the attention ol the populace to an article which allords so much comfort in its use, and as little difficultv will be experienced in introducing it. we have no doubt of a profitable business to those who engage in it.

The population of tlie city and countv of Philadel phia is agreeably lo the returns made to the Marshall, 188,986. This is Ins than some estimates that have been offer ed but it is enoueb to admit of such a division of in tellectual and manual labor as may suffice to bring all the arts and science to perfection. The area of the city and county of Philadelphia ia, acreeablv to Darhv.

about 120 soosre milaa. The sres of the city and county of New York is, according to tne same authority, about 18 square miles. Theestinv ated population of New York ia 213.000, to which must he added a population of 13,000 for Brooklyn, for uruoMyn is in all moral and commercial points or view ouo With. N.ew 4'uiL, If a comparison were made of the efficient population of the two cities the population that ia ol proper age for taking an active part in business, it would be found to be nearly as 8 lo in favor of New York. 6uch, at least, is the judgment we have formed from a comparison of the bills of mortality of ihe two From these it would seem, that the proportion of very aged people is sauch greater in Philadelphia, and also tlie proportion of young children.

Of persons between the ages of 15 and 60, there are more, both absolutely and necesaary, in New York than in Philadelphia. New York should consequently exhibit more activity in commerce, and the other pursuits of life. But we have enough laboring people capable of either intellectual or manual exertion, to make our city, if their energies be properly directed, inferior to no city in the universe, in whatever conduces to the substantial comforts oflife, and the real excellencies of the human character. We may be tlie second city in tbe union in population. It will be our own fault, if we are not the first in the arts and sciences in wealth in good order and in happiness.

Antiquity A few dAys dnte a human skeleton sup posed to be that of an Indian chief, as disinterred in au open field in this neighborhood, which tradition represents as having been cultivated for 150 yours past. The teeth were all in a state of preservation, hut rather loose in their sockets. The bunts are but little decayed, and of a large size. They were found within eighteen inches of llie surface of the ground, and discovered in spading upearth lo cover a heap of potatoes. The corpse appear ed to have been buried in a silling aiture, on a bed ol acuiiup and oyster sheila.

LITTLE ROCK. Nov. 10. Emigration Travellers from Memphis inform us, that the road on thia tide of tbe is full ot movers principally emigrating towards the western counties of this Territory. The throng at tho ferry at Memphis, we understand, is sometimes so great, thnt movers are not iinlrcqucntly detained a day or two be fore their turn for crossing over arrives.

It is estimated that 1500 souls have crossed at that ferry since last spring, who were destined for Washington county Ihe emigrants by this route are principally Irom Ten nessee, Alabama, the Carolines, and we team from i ellera, that the rage for emigration to Arkansas, from loose states, is still increasing.

Colden, formerly Mayor of this cily. but for ihe last few yean a resident of that Slate, as one of their candidates for Congre at the approaching election, rour of the Anti Jackson candidates, viz Messrs. Condit, Southard, Cooper and Condict, are upon the same ticket. A Washington correspondent of the Albany Argus says, Jesse Hoyt.

En. of Now York, has just been nominated lo the Senate, by the President of llie U. S. as one of the Commissioners undur the Treaty with Dou mark. Fute of the Hornet.

(lis now fifteen months since theiale in which the I'. S.ship Hornet, with her gal lant crew ia supposed to have been lost in the gulph of I Mexico, and up lo this time not a syllable ot direct in formation has been given lo Ihe public concerning her fate. We have now a single item lo commomcatc. which we believe can be relied on. Capt Williams of tbe sch Texas, informs us that he saw at llruxsos one of the Hornet boots, whieh was driven ashore lo the IM ofTampico several months since, and in which were lound a number ol caps marked ilornet.

one was recnenized hv a Curtain well known to Cant. Williams, as a gig jn which one ol the Lieut's of ihe Hornet fre Juenlly came ashore. Capt. Williams describes hot ns mm 20 to 25 feet Ions, painted black, itb a hite streak round her want, and copper fastened. She is single banked, having two oan on ihe one side, and.

three on tbe other Since she came into Ihe hands of her present owner, (a pilot at Brasaos) she has been coppered tn preserve her from decav. Cant W. offered him $100 lo exchange her lor his own boat, in order that he might bring her home, but was refused. Funh information may be obtained by applying to Capt. Williams, on Donm me sen.

lexns, lyingai pier no. i norm mver. There are persons at tho Now Yard, we presume, who will he able, from the above description, to decide whether or not she belonged to the ilornet. To us there seems little reason to doubt on tbe subject. No other appendages of Ihe ship, or pieces of Ihe wreck had come asnore, irom men is prouaoic inai sue iouiiucivu.
