Tlio press and (lie Parliament?Tories, W higs and Rad ieals?broke out into a furious ami tumultuous storm of rage against the American Government and people. The Executive was allowed by tome to be well meaning, but powerless; but the form of Government was denounced as incompatible with the maintenance ol the duties which nations owe to each other; and the people as ambitious, grasping and unscrupulous, to whom its own Government is an object of contemptuous disregard for imbecility?a robber race* ill fact, to wnnm ilm nations and ol'luunauWy arc no re. straint, and against whom civilized Europe must combine to prevent ihcm from overrunning all ne ighboring countries with revolution and rapine. Some of the most grave members of Parliament?we do not include in that list the fantastic charlatan Brougham?intimated theneces- J sity of some grand demonstration to check the amoitious and aggressive spirit of the United States; and in sev. cral quarters broad intimations were thrown out that a proposition would lui submitted to the Qoutinental nations tn Willi ill M l/mirnn --- j '? ?WI IIIU |'l"" ' pose of upholding the authority of Spain in ( uba, and of checking, byd <1 monstrations of overwhelming force, the extension of the territories or the ; increase of the power of the United' States of this continents The intelligence of the utter fail- > ure of the expedition, and the insignificance of tlie force which went out of the United States with Lopez,] does not seem to have mitigated tlieir > rancor or appeased the alarm. The, i / ? ' '' '? 1 r ' ' ^ * vjoverumeni 01 me un 13(1 states is called lo account for ail that has been 1 dpnu by Lopez and his men; and warned that the ample punishment of these men can alone satisfy the | nations of Europe, and give (ireat Britain a sense of security for her own territorial possessions in America. The London Times threatens that if these things be not done by the laws, of the United Stales, they will bn enforced by "all civilized na-! lions*," in oilier words, we must dn i as we arc bid, or all liAirope will march against us. From the days when shi \ nigh ted ard rewarded Drake fur In* success- j ful piracies in (he South Seas, against \ the subjects of Spain, up to this day, j when she invokes the world to jojn Jierin detestation of the American Uepnblie, for failing in vigilance in lioiprolcetiugSpain in pdsscs^ipn of 1 nt;r cQionu'.s, ine Single ruling motive ; ha? been the advancement ofEng-i land s own interests and enlarge-' incut of England's own dominions. !

She ; j will doubtless be made to understand , that Kuropean monarchies haveplen-, 1 tv to do at this time in watching the i> i--i: nu\uiuiioimry movements around themselves: in guarding against the 'grasping' propensities which each I attributes habitually to his neighbor, and which are the most notable char acteristics of that European 'civilizaI lion' which exacts pledges and makes ; leauges of all the kingdoms, to prej vent them from robbing and plunder- j i ing each other on every occasion; and | that they cannot safely abandon ; th?se interests to come abroad to es| tablish a kingly alliance in America, of which the only profit discernible 1 is the prevention of ihe United States I from superseding Great Britain in the i control of the commerce to Asia, ! through the Gulf of Mexico. i i a ti_ * * - - - i i lie great iiovernments ol Europe | will not easily be persuade;! to follow the lead of Europe and enter into j war for propagating monarchies in , America, in order that projects for l commercial supremacy may not be ; damaged !>y the ascendency of A met iean intlucnee in Cuba. We hardly suppose any response to the British testimony of indignation ai me enormity ol seeking territorial J or national aggrandizement, by other tlian peaceful means, will be given ! seriously by the empires and States j that partitioned Poland?that media- j tized Germany, or conquered Algiers I or plundered India, or bombarded Canton. Such a concord might furnish another instructive chapter in the 'Dialogues of the Dead,' wherein we might have Pi/arro and Sir Francis I Drake, the Eninm-nr Alovnnfl??. n...i ! ...v.vutlUV I t? I III | (ho Marshals of Napoleon?Louis Xi V, and Frederick ot Prussia, enlarging on the blessings of peace, and th? .inviolability of States, as illustrated by their own benificent examples. Nor do we believe the English altogether earnest in proposing this continental league of kings to meddle with American affairs. It is gooil brave talk, and will serve to amuse the English people like the old song "Britain rides the Waves,' and the j constant chaunting in the street and j on the stage of the firm resolve that! 'Britons never, never will be slaves.' j It is a safe valve for a little patriotic | i-uervescencc; and without doubt, every peer and orator, after demanding that England should take the lead of all Christendom in putting down these ambitious and grasping Americans, looked and felt a hero. It would be altogether a different matter if he were called upon to go out and fitfht? or to put his hand in his pocket to pay the expense. Hesides, just now a little flurry about transatlantic matters, matters, no matter what, may help British diplomacy out of a snarl. Lord Palmerston has of late contrived, somehow or other, to get England into difavor ,?mi inuoi me vjovei iiiTienis 01 j Kuropc, aud it would help through the I unpopularity of some of* those clillicul lies, at least, to direct public attention from them, if there could be got up lor him a good strong popular commotion on any subject, more particularly on one which, like this antiAmerican league, would be sure to come to nothing. No! there wili be no continental al liauce against Americanism, even if j the provocations were more real than I those are which British animosity, ignorance and selfishness misrcpreteiits England will have to do all j this work for herself if she intends to peraoveie. That sho would gladly encourage Spain by every means, by irritating her pride, encouraging her arrogance, and aiding her in every form of diplomacy, and by every contribution within her power, to hold on to Cnba. JWhnninllv ?!?-< IT? tliu UJlllCll States, is as certain as that .she invariably pursues hor own objects steadily, and turns to hor own account all tho dissensions nnd quarrels among other nations. We must be prepajpa 1 for her untiring opposition, in every 1 form of open hostility and secret in- j trigueV to any dispositiQn of the island which will leave a predominating influence with tho United States.?

It was in relation to the vacant presidency of the Senate: k-\\ e observe that the name of the j Hon. Daniel S Dickinson has bi?en 1 mentioned in several newspapers in connexion Willi this office; and we learn that he was in fact very warmly urged by various gentlemen, both from the South and the North, an I of both the great political parties, to allow himself to be proposed as a candidate But he conceived that there would be more or less of impropriety in his permitting himself to be chosen to the second office in the republic at a period when a citiv.cn of the State of New York already occupies th(! first; which consideration, together with the fact of his unwillillirnoco in o?? IV. ~4 --.'.I in uuj iw ivjlIillCl Willi his friend, Col. King, for political station, induced him at once to decline the proffered honor. It will be remarked that Col. King's unanimous election did, in point of fact, occur at the instance of Mr. Dickinson. It is with high gratification without ion that when Col. King learned that Governor Dickinson's friends were, some of them, urging his claims to the vacant place, he did not hesitate to dcc!a e his willingness to unite m his support, and actually proposed to do so; to which the Roman-like sena tor lrom JNevv York would l?y uo means consent. Alay such generous rivalry ever mark the conduct of democratic senators towards each other'" Tub last Message of Gfn. Taylor.?The \\ ashington correspondent of the Charleston Courier writes: "Gen. Taylor wrote a message to Congress, which was finished and copied by some hand, in the early p.m 01 msi weeK, upon several important topics. Had it been communicated, it would have caused a profound sensation. It. urged his views as to the adjustment of the territorial question, and the immediate admission of California. It importuned Congress to provide the necessary supplies for the government. It declared his determination to support the present srate of of things in New M exico, against the pretensions of Texas. The message, as I have learned, lies in the State Department That the new administration will car,i..? , 1. - iy wm 15UUI1 ti uuuro id c\i:ry piirin ular, is not lo be supposed. Mr. l'ilmorc cannot lake so bold a tone, lie wil be obliged to conciliate and even tcnipori/.e. lie will rely on Ihe passage of the Senate adjustment bill if pass it ever should, to settle the New Mexican dispute." The Rumored Caucus.?'lX,"of the Baltimore Sun, concerning the rumor so extensively circulated of a Union caucus, says: "One of your 'well-informed Washington correspondents' certainlv did not hear a word of the 1 Union caucus,1 that was held on Friday, according to the despatches sent to the Baltimore Putriot and New Yc: ; Herald, and what is worse, I have not heard of it since, nor been able to discover the Senator who has been there. The thin# was manufactured out of the whole cloth, or rather out of the tvool, which myself had furnished in my published letter of Friday morning. 1 there alluded to an amendment that was about to be pro posed to the compromise bill, by providing for a division of the State, by o i:? r _ a. ?. ? ? ? ci inn* iui iiiiug me uainrni oouruiary of California, south of 35 degrees, apd tho establishment of a territorial government south of that line, on (he same principle as ihnt of Utah arvl New Mexico.

"The amendment will be proposed by Mr. Douglass, and consists; 111 an amendment to his amendment, already offered and pointed, by which v/aniorma may lorm two or throe States, all of which shall come into the Union on the .same footing as the original States.

PiiAtsr. Worth IIavivc..?-The Mobile Tribune, a journal indcpen (Unit ot party, and which is as judi-' cious as it is consistent and firm in its dclence of the cause of the South* passes tlie following discriminating judgment on the speech of our Senator, All*. Barnwell: ' We should like to give our read- j o s the i pL-ech de i/ered recently I y | Mr. Barnwell in the Ignited States Senate. This gent'eman is just from a private station, where he Ikis been Dcrl'orniin/uuiel dniipvi. :nut wlwim n.> speeches are delivered?except by the "bores." He has not, therefore, gut the Buncombe "hang" ol the of the Senate, but ('links, unlike a noted I'Yenchman, that words are in-! tended to ! e the vehicle of honest thoughts. I lis words are not big, such as usually conn; from men who will say more 111 ;i minute than they will stand to in a lifetime. In short, the speech isjust such a one as we should expect from a gentleman who Iwwl '* ' nuu inuiu ruspeci lor ins own good opinion than for that of any other person in the nation. Such a piece of oratory is a phenomenon in Congress, and it is refreshing to read it. I A man travelling through Sahara, parched and way-worn, could not have come with more delight on a cool spring embosomed within a grove of dale trees, than one falls upr n ill's speech, i?i the journey through the 1 givat waste of congressional humbug. Wo have already given a brief and meagre abstract of it. it conlinvs itself to a few important pouus?sucli as a vindication of the Missouri Compromise, and the necessities that the South is under to he firm and watchful?but these it illustrates in a pellucid current of the soundest argument. There are no threats or restiveness displayed by the speaker, but a great deal of earnestness and such manifestations of firmness as are calculated to make one believe that in action he would be wherever the South needs a man the most/' Tnr. Compromisk.-A letter, from a :_i?' uisiiuguisiiuu private source, at \V ash ington, mentioning the illness ofPres ident Taylor, and speculating on the probability of his death, says, "if he should die, the Compromise J5ill will certainly pass," meaning, we presume, that Mr. Fillmore, on his succession to the Presidency, would cast his influence in their favor* .So says i the Cou.ier.?Telegraph. ! Si/ddrx Death.?It is with pain i we avnounce the sudden death of one ci our most esteemed citi'/.ons? Hon. Alexander M. Mclver, who died i. this place on Wednesday i evening. Mr. Mclver had been in delicate health for some time, hut , previous to his death, nothing had occurred to particularly excite the j fear of his friends. | Mr. Mclver was Solicitor for the Eastern Circuit, to which office ho was elected for the third term by the 1 : last Legislature.
