From the Baltimore American. BRITISH COR^ LAWS. The intelligence by the Caledonia, thai the British Ministry intend to propose a modification of the Corn Laws is the most important item of news that has lately come to us from abroad. The preposi. tion is to substitute in place of the present fluctuating scale a moderate duty on the importation of foreign corn. The an. nouncement. of this intention was received. as might have been expected, with exultation by one party, and with deep murmers of indignation by the other. If the motion of the Ministers prevails, a greater change will be wrought in the British Constitution than was effected by the passage of the Reform Bill. The landed interest of the Kingdom on which the aristocracy is based, must receive a blow, the consequences of which may be fatal to its continued supremacy. The real struggle between the people and the aristocracy of England never came until now; for in the Corn Law system the whole question is involved. It is a svs. tern created and sustained for the benefil - ^-1 tnn/la Ia krinn Ol lit DUCU prU|iriCIUI9) UIIU It icuua IU / lip millions of laboring men to the verge ol starvation, for the sake of keeping up high prices for corn that the purses of the nobility and gentry may be well filled. It is plain, therefore, that all questions of reform and conservatism?all disputes between the friends of liberty on the one hand, and the advocates of privilege on the other?all notions, ideas, theories of social and political progress or finality which divide parties in England?must bo concentrated and brought to an ultimatum in this great practical issue which comes directly home to the vital interest* of all classes. The result of an overthrow of the Corn Law monopoly will not terminate in giving thelabo'ring people of Eng. land bread in greater plenty?for if thai were all, no aristocracy could be so self ish as to object to the change. Bu with a reduction in the price of corn, even landed proprietor will find his rent ro shrinking like a punctured bladder or n split balloon; and with the loss of wealth will go power, influence and supremacy. For years the popular leaders in Great Britain have been urging on the repeal of the Corn Laws. Every means short of actual rebellion?and even that was partially resorted to?have been tried to shake down the strong citadel of monopoly. Petitions, remonstrances, threatenings, mass meetings, agitations?the power of the oress and the stirring aDneals of orators?the outcry of multitudes suffering for bread?the voice of reason and the exclamations of passion?have not ceased to plead at the footstool of power for some amelioration of a system which grew more oppressive the long r it was endured. The concessions long demanded and long refused are now about to be made. Yet what an illustration is hereby exhibited of the honesty of politicians! It was not many months ago that Lord Melbourne declared the Corn Law question to to be one that must not be meddled with. Whence so audden a change of mind? The mystery may be explained perhaps by the fact that Sir Robert Peel intimated lately his willingness to admit the question and to modify the system, if he should come into power. This intimation coupled with the recent defeat of the Ministry, has probably induced the cabinet to change ground in order to keep their places. The concessions about to be made are not yielded from convictions of justice, or from a regard to the national interest, or from sympathy with an oppressed people?but from that sincere love of office and power which so eminently distinguishes the ordinary run of patriots in this our day. The proposed mondification of the British Corn Laws is a matter of much inter. *st to the United States. It is now high, ly important that we should have an able man at the Court of St. James, since the occasion seems to he altogether favorable for th* establishment of new com. merrial relations between this country and Great Britain. We can supply the British market with breadstuffs to any extent, and it will be to the interest of England to purchase from us rather than from Contin* ntal Europe?beeauso in the former case she would not have to make payment in specie. A trade mutually advantageous to the two countries might now be opened, which would do more tc strengthen f iendly relations and promote a good und -rs'a d ng between them than any expedient which diplomacy would suggest for a twelvemonth.

Yet the newborn babe would be buried, w t, as usual, on a scaffold. but by the way-side, that so its spirit might secretly steal into the bosom ol some passing matron, and be born again under happier auspices.

TOBACCO?A PHORT PATRRT SRRXOV. R The following?by whom I know not, nei. tj fher do I care?must serve as a text to ray present, discourse: Tobacco is an Indian weed, It was the devil that sowod the seed. My indulgent and indulging hearers? it was the devil, beyond all question, who first sowed the seed, and who is still the sole owner and proprietor of all that is, or ever will be, raised of this soul-contaminating vegetable. Oh, you vile tobacco worm9! I hardly know whether it is best j, to poke you about with a long stick of 0 rancor, or stand farther off and rely upon c the enticing powers of persuasion, I ex- \ pect, however, to accomplish but little, p any way. * My hearers?to such of you who are c in the habit of chewing, allow me to ad- 1 dress myself, butt-end foremost. If you v don't leave off the filthy practice, I shall f put you down upon my catalogue of unclean beasts, to be shunned and avoided s bv all decent society. It is a practice s productive of no good whatever, and j| fraught with more evils than a scaven- c ger's horse can carry. It renders your e carcasses as loathsome and disgusting as those of buzzards. It stains your dick- c 1 evs, as well as your moral characters? blackens both your teeth and your souls \ -?causes an odorirerous stench to flow a 1 continually from your mouths?and not u only infuses a deadly poision into your u blood, but leads you to an inclination for p occasional dissipation?from that tosemi- j; .* u _t.. fU a.: occasional intoxication. i?inn s wwum, n my friends, was never made for a tobac. ti co.box; and I wonder how any one can j< have the courage to chew that which he a lare not swallow. I'd like to see a man ti stuff some of the trash into his abdominal f; ;antrv. If he did'nt feci uncomfortable d ibout the waistbands soon after, it would n be because sickness was afraid to come it near him. ri Snuffing my friends, is nearly, if not n quite, as bad as chewing; and I grieve to tl observe that females as well as males a?t? b addicted to it. When I see a woman o whos;>eaks as though her nasal organ Was ti made of bell.metal?who says "pud'n" for n pudding?whose skin is .as yellow us the ^ latter end of Autumn?I know she takes snuff in sufficient quantities to make an a Egyptian mummy sneeze in it? sarcopha- ^ gus; and I also know that her brains are j)( equally as dirty as the handkerchief she al uses?and that's enough to throw a pair f( of tongs into convulsions. Many pre- (|r tend that they take snuff to clear their V heads. It clears their heads in time of al all sparkling, brilliant, and original ideas, cl and leaves instead a confused chaos of V unfinished thoughts?wrecks of fancy, and any number of untamed chimeras. Ir ! That is the only way in which it clears ** I their heads, my friends. The less dust ?! | you admit into vour noses the clearer | your heads will be?the better your health ?and the more transparent your morals.

BARBER'S POLE. ?! H MA# fpA m n AT 9 t A BAf 0 Kilt K.1VA til m 1 t* " ivvrvo H"i ?i viu (Vi4b v# (?/ub) uui. u< iu vui 11 ?n# The origin of the Barber'8 pole is to he ? traced to the period when the barbers j1 were also surgeons under the denomina- ,c tion of Barber-Surgeons, or Barber-Chi- * rurgeons, none other in former times be- e ing allowed to'let blood.' To assist this P operation, it being necessary for the pa- * tient to grasp a staff, a stick or pole was always kept by the Barber-Surgeon, to n getherwith the fillet or bandaging used a for tying the patient's arm. When the pole was not in use, the tape was tied to ^ it, that they might both be forthcoming a when wanted. On a person's coming to 11 be bled, the tape was disengaged from the M pole, and bound round the arm, and the J1 pole was put into the person's.hand; after } it was done, it was again tied on, and in this state the pole and tape were often c hung at the door for a sign or a notice to * Dassenpers that thev micrht there he bled. " I C # ^ " p, At length, instead of hanging oat the c identical pole used in the operation, a pole was painted with stripes round it, in imi- a tation of the real pole and its bandagings, ? and thus came the sign. c A few years since, and almost every ' barber in Philadelphia drew teeth, cupped leeched, besides operating on the chin? c Times had changed, to be sure, and with a very few exceptions, only in some of the ? ' upper districts, do we see any thing of this [ union of occupation. c 5 In England, too, the custom which t united the three branches of business has 7 r long since ceased, but formerly it must !' > have obtained generally. We remember !" of reading the following lines forty years v go, which we then considered descrip- < ive of an absolute custom: j His pole with pewter basin hong, And rotten teeth in order strong, Might well his threefold train explain.

We could not think of leaving Virginsi without visiting the Tomb of the Father f his country. We had previously re. eived a polite invitation from Mrs. Vashington, the present owner and occumnt of Mount Vernon, to vjsjt this spot o sacred to every American. We aerdingly started in a private carriage on ruesday morning for Mount Vernon, vhich is some eight or nine miles only rom Alexandria. After crossing Hunter's Creek, a handome sheet of water, the soil seemed very terile, and the scenery quite tininterest. rig all the rest of the way. Most of the ountry on either side of the road appear, d to be grown up to brush wood or pre- ( ented very few marks of successful agri- i ultural operation. The few acres imrne. iately around the mansion at Mount /ernon, however, wear a very different soect. There every thine seemed to be ti keeping with the fragrance of the nemorv of its former distinguished occu- . ant. The mansion itself has no particu- i ir claims to architectural benuty; por- 1 ions of it having been built at different imes. The central part of the building ' i the most ancient, it having been put up Imostone hundred years ago. This es- \ itewasinthe hands of the Washington j imily, several generations before the I istioguished possessor, whose name is 1 o\v so closely associated with it, became 1 :s proprietor. We were told that it de. wed its designation from Admiral Ver. ' on, the name of that gallant officer in , te British navy having been applied to it j y Captain Washington, the great uncle f General George Washington, who was i ion the owner of the estatcand who comlanded one of the ships of war under Ad. liml Vernon. The mansion, skirted by verdant lawns, nd encircled by clusters of trees, stands into by itself, remote from town or vil. i ige, on the brow of the bluff that looks i aldly off upon the Potomac. The river , t this point stretches a long distance be. >re the eye, and presents, above and be- , i\v, many points of beautiful scenery. We were received at Mount Vernon with < II that kind and cordial welcome, which , haracterizes Virginia politeness. Mrs. Washington has two sons and a daughter, i II of whom we had the pleasure of meetig at Mount Vernon. It was gratifying 1 > meet at this spot in the representatives f one whom, from earliest childhood we ad been taught to regard and to vener. < te as the greatest and best of men, per- 1 >ns so very agreeable as we found this imily. But there was nothing that ( irew over this scene such a charm, and rought every object upon which we >oked into such sweet and chastened , armony, with all that we ever heard of Washington, as the humble and deep. < ined piety of its present lovely and lady, ke proprietor. We walked through the torns of this mansion, and over its rounds with peculiar feelings. There < as the piazza, looking out upon the no. e Potomac, upon which the old General < led to walk by the hour silently medi. iting upon schemes for his country's x>d. or musng upon the sublime themes t F redemption and heavenly glory!?here was the room in which he used to ' t in the midst of the domestic circle! . here was his study and the book case, id some of his books, still remaining as ] ley were during his life time! And lere was the apartment in which the ( ather of his country, the immortal Wash. . igton, breathed his last, and bade an eter. si adieu to earth! We of course did ' ot fail to visit his tomb. The Mansion ands a little back from the brow of the c liff that overlooks the Potomac. The ' lutffrom its base, which forms the shore F the river, is woode 1 nearly to the sum- { lit. Just on the shelving summit of this < luff, near a cluster of tree9, stands a aim- t le low brick mausolem, or tomb, which j nn tains the mouldered ashes of the Wash, igton Family. In the outer room, guard. ' d by an iron gate of open lattice work, ' land two plain stone sarcophaguses, the . ne containing the ashes of George Wash- i igton, and the other, those of his be. >ved spouse. No spot of earth upon ^ rhich I ever looked appeared more sol. ( ii a mn, or more awe inspiring, man mai i Iain stone chest! It contained all that ras left of the mortal part of one, who ad won imperishable laurels, and whose ame would go down through all future ges, as the father of his country, and the est, and greatest of mortal men. And et how little did all this posthumous fame vail him now! There his ashes reposed i silence and darkness! The bright j raters of the proud Potomac rolled on, nd its waves came dashing upon the shore elow, but he heard them not. The birds ?, lat filled the branches of the trees that lustered around, and shaded the hill side, rere carrolling forth their sweetest sumler songs, but their notes entered not his ar. The blue sky stretched above, and ie g.een earth was spread out beneath, j nd all nature seemed to smile with looks , f gladness, but the eye which had once | >oked upon these scenes was now closed :>rever. Earthly glory?what a fading ower it is ! How brief is the neriod we an enjoy it! What reason have we to , dore our Creator?to magnify and praise ur Redeemer, that there is a life beyond he grave, that there is a glory of celestial haracter that will not fade away. And rhile standing in this lonely, silent spot, y the side of the ashes of Washington, t was a source of exalted enjoyment, to ndulge the belief, that he while in life ad been clothed with the Saviour's right* eousness, and waWiiow covered with the glory of Immanua* KINGDOM OF JERUSALEM. The project of connecting Palestine intc an Independent State, to which the Jews might return with an assurance of protection and security, appears to be seriously entertained by some of the lending powers of Europe. A word from Prince Mettefnich and Lord Palmerston would, it is stated, settle the matter. The Following: extract from a letter received in this city from a gentleman of high standing in the literary and diplomatic circles of Berlin, dated Feb. 15, serves to show that the subject has not been lost sight of, and is perhaps brought nearer to some important decision than the public has teen aware of*?The allies having obtained their end [in Syria] are somewhat at a loss how to dispose ?f their conquest. They are seriously thinking of setting up or reviving a Christian^ kingdom at Jerusalem?a project which seems to be received with favor at Vienna. But then what Ire they to do wiih the other Christian population of Syrial This is one of the questions which France has asked them. They are now very anxious tn draw her from the isolated position into which they have forced he* as they find af er all that they cannot permanently and satisfactorily settle the East without her concurrence!" Gentlemen who ha'e paid particular attention to some of the remarkable prophecies of the Scriptures believe that they see in the leading political even's of the day tnany indications of the near approach of the milleninm vlton all natinn* shal he brntlffht to the worship of the true God. The return of the Jewish nation to Palestine, and the resump-* tion of^vorship in the temple at Jerusalem, are reg^ded as among the events which must necessarily happen before that great purpose | is accomplished. The political movement here spoken of, taken in connexion with the efforts of missionaries, who have obtained a footing on almost every section of the globe, may serve to show thai the millenium era is probably not as far distant as the thoughtless affect to believe. The subject is one that affords food for much reflection, and the proceedings of the allied powers ir regard to the Holy I Land, will therefore be watched with absorbing interest.?American Senlinel.
