jury was pronounced,the excitement which before was like the thickening storm, all passed away, and to the everlasting credit of our citizens, no violence was offlered them, and they were permitted to leave our country utnmolested. Where could we look to find a greater instance 'of in tegrity, forbearance and respect for the laws than ths presents." There is a magnanimity in the forbear ance of the Texians :owards their ene mies, which imparts a moral sublimity to she character of the young Republic. President Lamar is very popular with the noble hearted Texans. 07 The following from the Baltimore American, shows the comparative strength of the Naval force of the United States, England, and France. Our national marine consists of 4 ships of the line, and 6 frigates of the first class on the stocks; 2 ships of the line, 1 razee, 3 frigates of the first class, I frigate of the third class, 13 sloops of war, 3 brigs, 6 schooners, I steam ship and one store ship in commission, and 5 ships of the line, 3 frigates of the first class; I frigate of the third class, 3 sloops of war, 1 brig and 2 schooners in ordinary-making a total of 58 armed vessels. England has in commission 240 sail, which are disposed of in the following manner. On the Home station, 10 ships of the line, 12 sloop" of war, 20 brigs. On the Lisbon station 4 ships of the line. 2 frigates I sloops of war, 7 brigs. On the Medi terranean station, 8 ships of the line. 6 frigates, 15 sloops of war, 10 brigs. On the East India station, 2 ships of the line, 6 frigates, 10 sloops of war, 4 brigs. On the Pacific station, 2 ships of the line, 6 frigates, 10sloops of war, and 6 brigs. On the Brazil station, I ship of the line, 4 frigates, 6 sloops of war and 6 brigs. West ladies and Gulf of Mexico, 4 ships of the line, 10 frigates. 17 sloops of war,l I brigs. Special Service, 4 frigates, 4 sloops of war. and 10 brigs. It will be borne in mind that the above statement only includes the -hips in actu al employment, the 'ole naval establish ment having been set down as ar back as 1836 at 670 in peace, &411 in war one thou sand and thirty six. The chief difficulty in the event of putting these ships in ac tive service, would be in manning them, and of course impressment would he re sorted to. In 1836, the number of sea men employed in British Commerce, was 170,000 men, a pretty abundant source from which to draw sailors for the Gov ernment service. According to the latest returns, the Na vy of France which is the next largest and rapidly increasing, stands as follows: 11 ships of the line, first class, 120 guns each; 23 of second class, 86 guns each; 23 of third class, 82 guns each. This forms a total of 57 ships, nearly every one of them built since 1816. Besides this, France has 40 frigates, first class, each of 60 36 pounders, 10 frigates each of 46 36 poudders; 15 frigates, third class, each of 32 guns; 16 gun-brigs 27 steamers the ma jority of them 160 horse power and each of them well armed. In her arsenals there are nearly 3,000 guns and carron ades for the naval service, enough to fit .out 51 ships of the line, 20 frigates and 20 corvettes. It appears from other statements that the French government could, immedi ately on the occurrence of war, increase the naval force actually at sea-namely. 22 sail of the line and 26 frigates, to 40 sail of the line 50 frigates, that besides the seamen necessary to man this large ad ditional fcie, there would remain a sur plus of 15.000 men to form the crews or vessels of minor rates or size: it further ap pears that a Royal Ordinance of the first of February, 1837, directed that there be kept up 'Wadvanced towards constrouton, a reserve of 13 sail of the line and 16 frig ates, by which the force at sea could be further raised to 53 sail of the line and 56 frigates,and that the number of war steam er should be fixed at 40, of which 16 are now in cotnmnission, and 13 more rapidly advanctng towards completion. Every, ship of the line is provided with four howwitzer cannon.80 potunders called a.la Pairhonms. Every frigate of the first class to have 2 of 70; steamboats of 160 horse po wer, 2 of 30; frigates of the 2td and 3d1 classes, stoops and brigs 4 of 30. Taking Sir John Barrow's statement, - which is supposed, from the high standitng of that gentleman, and his facility ofaccess to the proper sources of information to be correct; Er.gland thas in all 19 ships of . from 100 to 120 guns, of which 4 are in commnission,12 in ordinary and 3 building. Of the second class, carrying from 80 to 100 guns, she has 34 in all; 9 ini commts sion 18 in ordinary, and 7 building. Of the third class, of 70 to 80 guns, she has ia all 47, of which 12 are in commission, 33 in ordinary, and 2 huilding, making a grand total of 90 ships ot the line, 20 of which are commissioned. Of frigate~s of various classes there are 93, of which 9 are commissioned. Of steamners of war she has a total of 12, of which 5 are commis sioned, 2 in ordinary, and 5 building, be sides there are 13 steamers on foreign sta tions, and 28 post office steamers, .5 of which are in commission. France has 49 ships of the. line, 10 of which are in commission; of wvar steamers 27, of which 12 are in commission, 6 in ordinary and 9 in building. Here it will be observed that France is muck in ad vance of England, so far as war steamers are concerned. From ala~te London Paper. SUN-Pictures-While France and Eng land contend for the honor of this new in vention, let the following contrast of the eonduct of the claimants be placed in par allel; "M. Dagnerre's ingenious discovery, which has assumed the name of 'Daguer rotype,' continues to excite great curiosi tv and tiration. It is affirmed that the Emperor of Russia has offered 500,000f. for his secret, and that he has declined the munificent reward. It is not likely that his friend. M. A rago, wvill stneceed in oh taining a larger national one from the Chamibers."-From a Paris letter in the Post. M. Daguerre had better secure what he can for his discovery atoneas.Mr. Talbot, his English competitor, is determined to maken no secret of his plan. which wvas de tailed at the last meeting of the Royal Society. We give it as concisely as we ca: "Tbe subject divides itself into two heads, the preparation of the paper, and the incans of fixing the design, To make what Mr. Talbot calls ordinary photogenic paper, he selects paper of good firin quality and smooth surface; none answers better than superfine writing paper. He dips it into a weak solution of coimtoon salt, and wipes it dry,by which thesalt is uniformly distributed throughout its substance. He then spreads a solution ornitrate of silver on one surface only, and dries it at the fire. The solution should not he saturated, but six or eight times diluted with water. When dry, the paper is fit for use for all ordinary photogenic purposes. "Nothing can be more perfect than the images it gives of leaves and flowers, es pecially with a sumin.er's sun, the light passing through the leaves, and delinea ting every ramification of their nerves. If a sheet of paper, thus prepared, be taken and washed with a saturated solution of salt, and then dried, it will be found, (es pecially if the paper has been kept some weeks before the trial is made,) that it. sensibility is greatly dimitihed, and in some cases, seems quite extinci; but, if it be wiashed again with a liberal quantity ofthe solution of silver it becomes again sensible to light, and even more so than it was at first. In this way. by 'alternately washing the paper with salt and silver, and drying it by tines, Mr. Talbot increases the susceptibility of the paper." With regard to fixing the images, Mr. Talbot. after repeated experiments, finds that if a photogenic picture be washed over with iodide of potassium much dilu ted with water, an iodide ofsilver is form-, ed, which is absolutely unaltered by Run shine. This process requires caution, for, if the solution i too strong, it attacks the (lark part of the picture. Mr. Talhoil's usual met bod m. fixing consists in immer sing the picture in a strong solution of contmnon s;ah. and tihet wiping off the superfluous iixture and drying it. If the picture thus washed and dried be placed in the sun, the white partsccolorthemnselves of a a pale lilac tint, after which they bo come insensible. Those preserved by io dide are a.ways of a very pale primrose yellow. which turns to a fullgaudy yellow whenever exposed to the fire, and recovers its former color when cold. Pictures with this prepared paper are taketi in the ordinary manner with the camera obscura. Sir John Herschel has, since the discov ery was made known, turned his attentin to this subject, and has already obtained the pictures from the light ofDanuiell's great galvanic battery; Sir David Brewster, too, has taken up ibe investigation. From tu Pennsylvania Inquirer, THE %%ORLD ABROAD. Lord Durhans's report on the Canadas was circulating far and wide, and apneared to excite much attention. The London Weekly Despatch gives an extract which is particularly eloquent, and will be read with pleasure on this side of the water. It runs a beautiful parallel of the effects of Colonial and Republican Government. as exhibited in the case of the United States, and the British Provinces in America. The Despatch copies it. with a remark, that "it is for the English people to decide whether they like monarchy or repulli. canism, at least in the Colonies." The passage will he found below. "On the American side all is activity and btustle The forest has been widely cleared; every year numerous settlements are formed, and thousands of farms are create-l out nf the waste; the country is intersected by common roads; canals 'and rail ro..ds are fitished, oir in t he course of f'ormtation; the ways ofcomtmunuication and transport ate crowded w'ith people, anud en livened by ntumerous carriages and large steamboasts. The observer is surprised at the number of harbors 0n the lakes, and the nutmber ol vessels they contain, while br'idges, artificial landing pllaces, and comn 'uodious wharfs are formed in all direc tions as soon as required. Good houses, warehouses, mills, intns. villages, towns, an-] oven great cities, are almost seen to spritng uip out of the desert. Every vil lage has its school house and place of pub lic worship. Every town has many ofihoth, with its townshtip buildings, its book stores, and probabl3 one or two b)anks, and news pa[pers,and the cities. wit h their finre church es, their great hotels, their exchanges, court houses, and municipal balls, ol'stota or marble, so new and fresh as to mark the recent existeince of 'he forest where they now stand,wou:d he admired in anty part of the Old world. On the British sidle oft the litne, with the exception of a few favored spots, where sonme approach to A'merican prosperity is alpparent, all seemq waste and desolate. There is biut one rail road in all British America, and that, running between the Sr. Lawrenace andlLake Chamn plain, is only 15 mile~s long. The ancient city of Montreal. which is natuirally the commercial capital of the Cantadas, will not bear the least comparison int aniy res pect with Buffalo, which is a creation of yesterday. But it is not in the dia'erence between the larger towns on the two sides that we shall find the best evidence of our own inferiority. That painful but unde ntiable truth is tmost manifest in the country districts thr'ough which the line of nation al separation passes for 1,000 miles. There, on the side of both the Canada, and also 'of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia,a wsidely scattered populatiotn, poor, and apparently unenterprising thouigh hardy and induJostrious, separated fromi each other by tracts of intervening forests. without townus or markets, almost wvithout road-, living in mean houses, drawing lit tle more titan a rode subsistence from ill cultivated land anid seemingly incapable of improving their condition, present the most instructive conitrast to thteir enterpri sinig and thriving neighbors on the Ameri can side."
