From the N. Y. Courier Enquirer. IMPORTANT NEWS. Arrest of the Duchess de Herri Embargo on the vessels of Holland in France and England OJjicial Documents relative to Holland and Belgium reported loss of tiic Constellation Frigate. After an unusual length of time had elapsed without receiving any news from Furope, we were yesterday unexpectedly informed of the arrival below of the packet ship ' Canada, Captain Wilson, from Liverpool, and the packet ship Manchester, Capt. Weiderholdt, from Havre. Our news collectors arrived in town from the first vessel in the forenoon from the second in the afternoon. The editor of the Courier and Enquirer has received by these two arrivals London dates, direct, of the 5th, November and Liverpool of the Gth, Paris dates ot the 11th and Havre of the lL'th November. The latter containing London accounts of the Sth. The affairs of Holland and Belgium appear at last approaching to a crisis. By the ollicial documents which we publish, it will be seen that the representative of Russia hid withdrawn himself from the London Conference, alleging that the objects for which that body had assembled were entirely of a pacific nature, and that he, there

fore, did not feel himself authorized to give his assent to the resolutions of the Conference which threatened Holland with hostilities. He speaks, there is no doubt, the sentiments also of Austria and Russia. This step does not seem to have caused England and France to waver in their determination. The arrangements they havo entered into, to coerce Holland, having been correctly announced a few days since, by our Department of State, we do not copy them. It will be seen that in the execution of thess arrangements, orders have been given to embargo all Dutch vessels in English and French, ports, and to English cruizers, to bring in those they meet at sea. We copy the account of the sailing of the combined English and French squadrons from Spithead. A gale shortly after arose, and serious apprehensions were entertained for the safety of the latter; but the London Globe announces under the head of Deal, the 7th of November, that the whole fleet was safely anchored there, and this is the last intelligence we have of them. We have not given the various rumours spread through the French papers of the advance of the French army. All that is certain, seems to be that they are in perfect readi ness to cross the frontiers. The Dukes of Orleans and Nemours had left Paris to join them, and tne Prince of Orange had arrived at the Citadel of Antwerp, perhaps by his presence to animate the garrison to a determined resistance. Before the 15th November, the day fixed by the Courts of London and Paris for the evacuation, it is highly improbable the French army will make any forward movement. Our Paris Correspondent writes us under date of the 11th Nov. as follows: "The London papers of Thursday, the Sth inst. have also just arrived. The Dutch Minister, Van Zuyler Van Nyevelt, had not left London, as had been reported, and the ' evening papers assert that he had no such intention, so that there is probably a latent resolution on the part of his government to give way when nothing furth&r can be made by holding out. It is asserted, however, in the Courier, that the government had resolved on establishing conveys for the protection of British shipping against the Dutch. The rate of insurance at Lloyd's upon policies to Holland, which last week had been as low as ten shillings per cent., had been done last Wednesday at five guineas. It was reported at Lloyd's,, that thirty-nine vessels had left Rotterdam in company on the Gth instant, and that six armed gun brigs, supposed to be intended for privateers, had arrived at the island of Goree, where they were to wait for further orders. The money market, was heavy at 83$.-' The Duchess de Berry has at last fallen into the hands of the Government of Louis Pbillippe. She has been transported from Jxanlcs, where she was arrested, to ihs castle of Blaye, near Bordeaux, where by a decree of the King, she will wait until the Legislative bodies shall have decided on her fate. On the Sth November he issued a decree of which the following is one of the provisions. "The projectcfa law deciding the course to be taken relative to Mdme. the Duchess de Berri, shall be presented to the Cham bers." Another attack, it will be seen, though of little consequence, has been made on Oporto. The accounts speak generally in very favorable terms of the prospects of Don Podro. On taking up the last Havre paper, we were shocked to find in it the following item: From the Jour. d;i Havre of the 11, 12 A or. Lloyd's List of the Oth November, which we received this morning annniinrps tho following melancholy event, which we have scarcely time to relate : Trieste, Oct. 27. By a vessel arrived tli's morning in 1G days from Smyrna, we learn the loss of the American frigate Constellation, at Rhodes. All on board perished, except the commander and six of the crew. In the same gale of wind, coup de vet, a Greek steamboat was lost in the Gulph

of Volo, with her passengers and all on

board. On a little reflection, however, we felt the fullest conviction this account cannot be true. The Courier &. Enauirer of Monday last contains a letter from Capt. Read, dated at sea in the Levant, Oct. 17. We have also seen a letter from the Surgeon of the Frigate, Dr. Morgan dated Milo, Oct. 20, when all was well onboard. Now it is impossible, that if she was safe on the 17th or 20th October, that a vessel arrived at Incsteon the 27th Oct. in sixteen days from Smvrna, could have brought from the latter place an account of her loss. We therefore dismiss our fears for the safety of the Constellation and her gallant crew, in the persuasion that the communication from Trieste to the Secretary of Lloyds is a sheer fabrication. From the Baltimore American. The " Peaceable Remedy? In the Legislature of South Carolina, a bill has been reported from the Military Committee, to prepare the State for war in case the federal government shall undertake to enforce the collection of its revenue. The bill recites the ordinance and the necessity of preparation, and, in the event of an overt act of coercion or intention to coerce the Slate, manifested by an unusual assemblage of naval or military forces in or near the State, or the adoption of any measures indicating a determination to resort to coercion against the State, places the whole militia of the State at the command of the Governor. He may, in the first place, issue his pro clamation calling for ten thousand volunteers, and shall forthwith case the whole white population of the State, between six teen and sixty, to be divided into four clas ses for the purpose of bearing arms, to be called successively into the public service, the volunteers to serve for twelve months, and the militia six. The Governor is also authorized to pur chase ten thousand stand of small arms, &c. and cannon, balls, powder, lead, &c. ad libitum, all for the purpose of sustaining the "peaceful" and "constitutionaV doctrine of nullification. We do not see any provision made for the payment of these troops. The ways and means have not yet been reported; and until we see them, we are unable to imagine how they arc to be provided. The balance in the treasury at the last annual report, is about $200,000, and the single item of the ten thousand volunteers lor the State, and the previous two thousand for the city, will cost, according to the rules of the United States' Army, as computed in the Augusta Courier, eleven million of dollars per annum. The two thousand called for to be stationed in Charleston now, will cost at the same rate of payment, not far from $2,000,000 per annum, or more than $150 per head for every taxable white male citizen. J Is it possible that the people of Carolina have considered these things, and are willing, we say nothing of their ability, to pay so much for the destruction of the Union? It is, perhaps, ungracious to allude to the weakness of a gallant people, some of whom undoubtedly believe themselves struggling for a great principle; but surely it is an irrefragable evidence against the truth of those representations of the safe and peaceable nature of the crisis into which they have been hurried, to show them that they have unconsciously been pledged by their leaders, to sustain a doctrine that is incomprehensible, by exertions which are impossible. From the III inois Galeniaia of Xov. 21. Wars, and eidiors of Wars. From tho late and authentic intelligence, receivedfrom the neighboring tribesof Indians, we are compelled to believe that we must have another general war next summer. The Indians have already began to form their alliances, one tribe with another and they say that their want of success last summer was owing to their not being prepared; tut they will be prepared next summer. The Wincbagoes, it has been recently ascertained, can raise 1500 warriors, who say they can raise as many more among tho Pottawatamies Chippewas, Sioux, and Sacs and Foxes. Their place of rendezvous will probably be among the Kickapoo hills, the best harbor for such recreants in the world. Should such a combination take place, and assemble north of the Wisconsin, a large force of mounted men will be required to conquer them. The close attention of our Government should early be drawn to this subject, and early means adopted, to prevent the contemplated massacre and devastation from these barbarian combinations. There is no frontier in America so much exposed and where Indians can do more I harm than in this Upper Mississippi country; and yet there is no country, where the means ot protection are so slender and few. As an evidence of the extent and importance of our trade to Peru, it is stated that during one year, next preceding August last, seventy-two American whale ships of nearly 25,000 tons burthen, visited the little poit of Payta alone.

EFFECTS OF NULLIFICATION. It would appear from the following paragraphs, says the Cincinnati Adver tiser, thaNhe principles of Nullification have already began to develop their beauties. From these extracts it will be discovered that the great advocate of rebellion has come him-elf to be nearly nullified by a friend of the Union party. The extracts are taken hom the respective statements of the combatants and though not given at length, contain the most material points

touching the affair. General Green J says: "General Blair is perhaps the largest man in the U. btates, in the vieor ot iife; 1 was passing him on the pavement, and without any previous warning, he struck me a severe blow with a large club on the head. The blows were followed up until I was brought to the earth, my left arm broken, and my left leg disabled and severely wounded. At this crisis, the by-stand-ers interposed and separated us. In reply to an inquiry from a by stander, Gen. B. said the provocation was that I had called the Union party of South Carolina Tories, Gen. Blair was in the habit of meeting me on terms of passing civility 1 was not conscious that I had given him oflence 1 was unarmed and taken entirely by surprise." To which General Blair responds "As General Green's own statement is a little wide of the mark, or at least does not give the whole truth, 1 have thought it proper that 1 should give a brief statement of the facts. 1 was highly provoked by the terms in which General Green spoke of the Union party of South Carolina. My angry feelings were not concealed all endeavored to dissuade ine from personal violence on General Green, and I endeavored to reconcile it to my feelings to let the insult pass with impunity. But I found myself unequal to the ef Tort. To have myself, and the party with whom it is my pride to be associated, denounced as "a Tory Faction who had profaned the sacred name ot Union," was more than I could brook." "In this temper I met him on the Avenue yesterday, each of us walking alone. 1 had understood he had always went armed. As soon as we approached within some eight or ten paces of each other, 1 accosted him thus: "Well, General, the Union men of South Carolina are all tories, 1 suppose?" He replied sternly, "you know what I have said." "Yes," said J, "and you shall know what I will do" and 1 instantly struck him with the small end of my stick. What occurred afterwards was pretty much as repre sented by Gen. Green except that 1 did not think 1 had injured him as much as he states. 1 struck only with the light end of the stick throughout, and restrained the force of the first blows, at least, if not the whole. As soon as 1 made the first hostile indication, General Green was endeavoring to get some weapon from his bosom or side pocket, which I presumed was a pistol he drew out something, which at length I discovered to be a dirk. But while I remain ed under the impression that a pistol was about to be used against me, it is probable I increased the severity of my blows to an extent that I am not aware of. If the chastisement given to General Green exceeds the bounds of moderation, my apology is to be found, not merely in the great provocation he had previously given, but in the unyielding spirit with which he sustained and prolonged theconflit. Very respectfully, Yours, Sec. JAMES BLAIR. Dermoxt McMoekogii. An obligin: correspondent has sent us a communication relative to Mr. Adams7 poem. As we have already briefly alluded to this illustrious failure, we only publish a part of his able criticism. In the expression of the views subjoined, we must heartily coincide. 'There can be no true poetry where there is no fueling. A man may construct rhymes, and with some they may pass for poetry. But he who strings the lyre, must have his heart attuned to th3 most delicate and tender feelings. His soul must break out in living, breathing verse, and kindle up congenial sentiments in the minds of tho thinking, busy multitude. There must be a height, a depth, a sublimity of thought and expression, or there is no poetry. You cannot take up your pen to write verses with the same dull, cold apathy that you would propound a problem in mathematics, or describe an uncommon variation in the weather, or the stock exchange. When voetry is written, it must come from the deepest recesses of the soul, and in a glorious form Itoo not Uuio and precise but rich, bcuuti

ful, and flowing. The poem of Air. Adams is entirely destitute of these prominent characteristics of good poetry, lie seems to havo written 'Bcrmont McMorrogh1 with the same feelings that he would have written a state paper, an annual message, an essay upon the American System, or any other national question. And the truth of the matter is, therefore that this poem is a decided failure. It has doubtless been supposed, that it must of necessity follow that this poem should possess uncommon merit, because its author has acquired distinction

n n sl.it rsmnn. In this latter capacity, it is but just commendation to sav, tint" he is one of the most accomplished Statesmen of the age, hut t is fmi'ill in it imili add, that he is not, and never can be, a dis- : rrvt ot lont t.., able distinction.' The annexed opinions of I)ermcnt McMorroglfs are from the review of the poem, in the December number of the New England Magazine: The whole alVair is stale, flat, and unprofitable, without one single gleam of genuine poetry. Our moral author has, on several occasion?, condescend ed to imitate the style of Don Juan, but he nrnrrir'tirv3 nliriiit innr tlin ft-i;limfT wit ! nrwl hnnn entire rf fl.nt rpmnrl-r.Mf. xv ml- n a ! a draught of milk and water docs to the 1 sparkling pungency of champaign. There are, to be sure occasional stanzas in tho poem, which would do considerable credit lo tho school exercise of a boy of sixteen. ; ir .it r .i I 1 r onntnnl imcnror t iw Hr r,r'i irirl I 1 J V.UltlV.111, tiUllblVI.

Fro v idence J o u rn ul. PRINTERS. It is a fact highly honorable to the profession, that in the present Legislature, there arc mxe trixti-ks. Printers certainly labour harder for the public good, and generally to greater pecuniary disadvantage, than any other class of citizens; and it affords us extreme irntilicatiori to see their claims are not, in all cases overlooked by an intelligent public. Another fact may as well be mentioned, while we are npon this subject, showing that in this happy land ot republican institutions, v j I the wav to honor ana distinction is open to all denominations and "rades of citizen: who chooso to practice virtue and perseverance.

It is the judgment of the congressmen with whom 1 conversed since I have been here, that the session will be too s-hort, to attend to much impoitant businej-s, so absorbing is the deeply agitating topic of .Nullification. The Saturday Evening Post, which bent its neutrality towards the opposition duiing tho struggle, now renders justice to Andrew Jackson in the following terms: ''In a crisis, such as may be dreaded from the overheate d ardcur of the &uthcrncis, President Jackson is perhaps the only man round whom both parties iu the other states will rally, and much as his re-election was deprecated by the anti-Jackson party, we believe there are many who now look calmly upon the event, as likely after all, to be tho best for the country.11 Wc epected r.o less frcrn the fje.odser.se of lho editor oi that paper, when the clatter and dust of the opposition here had subsided.
