wVe copy from utbe Consttutionalist of the 20th instant, the following interesting items of political news. The message of the President with -re gard to the Maine Boundary Question, and the arrangement between Mr. Forsyth and Mr. Fox, had arrived in England, and caused no uneasiness or fluctuation in the political and commercial relations of this country with Great-Britain. In short#,he message was considered as pacific and sat factory. From France it is stated that the elec. tions would give a decided majority to the opposidon. In consequence of this result the ministry, at the head of which was M Mole, had resigned. The King had charged Marshall Soult to form a new min istry, with Mr. Thiers, -as minister of rore ign affairs. The organization of the new ministry had not however been officially announced. The Encantpment.-The Encampment of the Commissioned and Non-Commis sioned Officers of the 4th Brigade, under Gen Edwards, at Accabee, a beautiful lo cation on Ashley River, about six miles from the city, terminated yesterday. Gov. Noble was present at the Camp; and in atruction in camp discipline, and military exercise and evolutions was imparted by that excellent officer, Adjutant General Jones. Notwithstanding the disorganiza tion of the 19th Regiment, the encampment was better attended than any previous one, the officers present nearly doubling the number of those in attendance two years ago.-Charleston Courier. From the Old (Va.) Dominion. Hox. F. H. ELMORE.-It will be re membered that this gentleman was the mover that a vote of thanks be passed to Mr. Speaker Polk, for the able, dignified and impartial manner with which he had discharged the arduous duties of his office. Should the friends of Mr. Jones of our own State, [Virginia) consent to waive his claims, we know of no man in Congress that we would be more gratified in seeing elevated to the Speaker's chair, than Col. Elmore. Either he or the Hon. F. W. Pickens of the same "gallant State," would fill the high station with distinguish ed ability. The following gentlemen were on Mon day the 8th inst., elected directors of the Bank of Georgetown, S. C.: Benjamin King, A. W. Dozier, J. W. Coachman, J. G. Henning, John Chapman, Thos. G. Carr, John C. Porter. The two last in the places of Dr. E. T. Heriot and Mr. E. B. Rothmabler, who had resigned. At a meeting of the Direc tors subsequently held, J. Chapman was elected President.-Georgetown Union. We stated yesterday, says the New Or leans Courier, that General Hamilton, and others, had declared their intentions of be coming citizens of Texas. It is proper to state that the Constitution of the new Re public does not require a renunciation of allegiance to the United States- to become a citizen; and that General Hamilton, in a speech at Galveston, declared he had not, nor would uot abandon allegiance to his native country; but that having lands in ie.new state, he wished to put himself in a position to defend theni. The other gentlemen. also made large purchases of lands, to hold which requires a citizenship, or quasi citizenship. General Lafayette was a citizen of the United States, and a subject of France at-the same time; and General Bernard, at present a Minister of War in France, was a citizen, and Briga dier General, in our service. Sale ofthke Bonds.-The National In telligencer gives us in the debate of the Treasury note bill of the 28th ultimo, Mr. Webster's opinion of the amnch mooted case of Mr. Woodbury's sale of the bond of the United States Bank. As the Intelli gencer rather quaintly and coldly says: "It will be perceived that Mr. Webster sees no occasion to find fault of the man ner in which it was agreed by the Secre tary of the Treasury' and the Secretary of War, to receive payment of the bonds due the United States by the Bank." This is rather short of the mark. Mr. Webster speaks of the transaction in strong and de cided terms of admiration. He approves of the course of the Secretary of the Trea sury, (a new thing with Mr, Webster,) and says of the agency which the Secretary of War had in the arrangement : "I com mend his course in this transaction alto gether, as manifesting comprehensive views and practical ability of administra tio."-Richmond Eng. Dr. J. S. Gannell has been appoint ed Post Master at Washington, D. C., in place of Dr. W. .D. Jones,remnoved. There are three enormously profitable post offices in Massachusetts, one of them yields five dollars eighty-nine cents, one four dollas seventy 6ve cents,-and one two dollars eighteen cents per annum. Shakespeare modernized.-T wo loafers were spouting,\ the other day, in front of a bank,-when one drew a wallet from his pocket, and said, be who steals my purse steals trash." "Yes," replied the other, "ad he who filches from you your good name,takes from you wchat you neer had." Antiquarians say tbat an an old negro at Cape Cod, whenever his master re u ired any thing of him, would exclaim, Jassa-chzuse-it. Hence in time the name of Massachusetts. Married.--In New York, January 29, 11r. James B. Bills to Miss Susan Banks. (It is well that the banks are no lotnger prohibited from issuing small bilLs, or we fear this nmarriage would tnever have taken place.)-Brooklyl Addv. Strayed SF ROM the subscriber, about the 1st of the month, a Bay Colt, with a long switch tail, 3 yeasold tis spring, and a Bay Mare Mule Colt, one year old. They went ol in company with a bay Horse, unknown in the neighborhood. They were iat seen in the neihborhood of Mr. Joseph Ferguson.. Any information respecting them wil sb thankfully received.

I is proper to consider first, the utility of Reviews. re-garded as orgais (if the literary spi rit and opinions of the age. and se-ondly. the importance and necessity of establishinjg such r work at the Son h, at the present time. On' the first point, it is scarcel" necessary to say nch, ine the preseit adtaieed s:age of period ical literature. Ably conducted Reviews are the offspring ol' a iigh state of civilizatini. ansd are the best evidence, now-a-days, that canl he furnished of intellentaIl advancement, and the prevalence of a pure and elevated philosophiy. l'he inst half century has prodiiced few au thors of eminence, either in Great Britain or America, in comparison with the half c. ntury that preceded it, and the reason probably is, not that there has been a want of genius. talentand scholarship in this confessedly intellectual age. but simply because distinguished scholars have found a readier and a hetler orcan thron Ith which to art directly on the public mind in Ife vien s, than through the medium of books-the old, more tedious andi more expensive inethiiod. If iherefore. it he asked, wihat evielence is oir can be furnished of the sitperioir intelligence and progress of the present century-a pro gress of which we- are so apt to boast- the re ply is that it is to be found iin the hich character ofthe . uar:erly Revirws abroad and at homte. If it be affirmed, that we have no native liiern ture in this country, ai.d theselitre no mnterials to furnish the round work for Reviews, the an swer is. that our Reviews constitute onr native literature, and that if learnitng ansI scholarship are sought for, they are to he found in our Re views, which therefore hishod be warnly and firmly supported, as an evidence, and a fir fine, of our literary pretensiovs and our national character. Besides, io one cnuse. it mv he safely atlirned, has contributed so nmnch to eli cit talent, to awakene literary ambition. and to produce the highest order of fine and poiwerful writing, as the establishment of lieviews; and many individuals have been stimulated to ex traordinary efforts, and have been siibseplriently known far and wide to fame. it consequence of* the opportunities they have enjoyed and impro ved, of contributing successfully to works of s, ifinetiial and highly respectalb!e a charactet individiuals, who, otherwise. in atl pohhaility, would never have been tempted to test their strength otn the literary arena with such compet itors as they would be likely to meet there. The great aim of Reviews is, to dismiss sub jects learnedly,thorough y,profoitudly-in such a manner as to bear u pon the whole social sys. tei. and pro.:ce a broad. deep and peernianent impressioin upon the general characier of a pro ple: In one word. their object is to dilfise knowledge, not to foster prejudices-to create, direct and coitrol-not t echo opiniionts-to produce beneficial chances upon t large scale -not to perpetuate or even tolerate existing a buses. It is obvious. therefore, that while. in the infancy of Americnn literatuire a slpirit oef induilgen-c has beei felt and exteuded to the liults of our lighter periodicals. which are rap idly issued fren the press, and which have seived as vehicles often for the attempLs of the mere literary debtetant, (cinarterly Reviews, I'hviing higher ains to acconmlish, and intend img to represent anid embloody, inl the most pow erful and attractive form, the opintions only ofC the imcst e'nlighte'ned ieds sheotuld lbe coat tucted witht a screupneious regard to the pture-st prtinciples of tastc, and to the elevation and ad vncnetet of our literary attd ntationatl chsar acter. Its respect to thse importance and ne'cessity of 'stab~ishisg such a woerk at theSouth at the present time. there cann be little donbt in the meinids of onr discerning acid pulic spiritedl citizens. We msnot have such a wyork. or lall behind the spirit of ilse age. which is of a pre 'minenti tinquisitive aned ente'rprising chiarac ter, anid the Secmit should havie seh a work,- cut only from motives of literary pride and emuola :ion, in order to keep pace with the respectalile advansces cf the octher wvide, initelligenit, ande thri ving sectionis of thse Aumerican republic, biut also bec-ause the South has, se the presee t period es pecially, certain great used lenading ititerests ol its owne to promote, which can be most effectu ally subserved through the inastrunentelity ol suich a periodical. Ii is tnot necessary to raise the war cry ngainsst other portion.-- of t'he Uiie wvho may feel disptosed, as 'hey ofteni dle, to dhif rer frosm us in thseir viewys oh our agriculturil, commnercial and political initerests. butt it is ime portant, highly so. that we shouetld taike our .southern peosition firtmly in the presei~t attitiude occour national anniirs; that oeur positiont shotncd he clearly knsowa ansd understoscd. heuth set home acid abroad; that we sahnu'd be rendy tco defei ourselves acid our institustions fruem all cosvert osr open assaults; that we should mnainttain thue prin ciples oef the Federal Comnstitutiont ice its origin al intenations, with a firm and unflinchuing <pirit. and piromote the cause of a puire aned elevated literature by all the liducemenits that cesn be held outt to stinmulate the anmbition arid pride of intelligent and chivalric people. Propositions have been fregnenstly made here tofore for the revival of the Sousthern Review, whsich unfortunately have not been crowned with the success that wvas hoped or nuiticlipated for them. Dif'erent causes have been assiuned for the failture of these projects, buet the le'ading one unedoubtedly is, the neglecting to avail onr selves of a very fhvorahle- state of the publiC feeling by following nip well digested plas with vigorouss and ceoncerted actioun. WVe have sat still-folded our hanids ande closed otur eyes, and then hsave complained of untiveersal apathy. It is believed, that at the present moment,a versy dee pe general and eaurne-st de aire pervades the Southern community, or at any racte. the most influential tportioen of it, to re-esiablish aned placce on a permcanenit founidation, a Quasrterly Review of the highest order. If the subscribuer can en list this feeling in his behanlf. lie will have rea son to anticipate the most flattering success otherwise his efforts will be vain. It is proposed that each rnumaber of the con templated work shah: containi at least two hun dred and fifty eectav'o pae of original matter, perinted in the best style of the Ameerican press. Twe~nty-five hundred or three thousand sb scribers at five dollars ananenlly, the momii:y be ing psaid, would yield an amouint sufflicient to establish the work, and afford a handsonme re mutneration to writers feet lite'rary labor. A stronig appeal isv imade to the publi'- spirited citizens of the South, and aleso ofthe West and South West, already tunitedto us by stroneg ties itn a commercial and agricueltuirni point of view -in behalf of the proposed work.
