ENGLAND. The foreign news will command the attention of the reader there has been none so important since the battle of Waterloo. The change of ministry the elevation oF Canning and Huskisson to the first places, in the government of the empire both of obscure, if not unknown parentage, proves that England is closely approximated in fact to a Commonwealth that the irdluerfte of the Commons has completely prevailed over that of tne No
bility. It proves more than this that the situation of England is so critical, her trade so much embarrassed, her manufactures in so suffering a condition, and her finances by consequence so much diminished, that the prejudices of the throne itself were obliged to yield to the force of circumstances, and consent to the elevation
of the popular favorite, Mr. Canning, to the Premiership. George Canning, the illegitimate son f a strolling actress, is King of England in effect the King dc jure and de nomine is George Guelph. Whatever cause the American people may have for disliking Mr. Canning a cause in some degree removed by his subsequent apology on the Liverpool Hustings, and though there is no sufficient evidence that the change of ministry rill lead to a change of English colonial policy yet as the friends of popular rights, and as the enemies of aristocracy, the people of the United States have great cause of congratulation at the elevation of Mr.
Canning. His triumph is the triumph of the people of England over the tilled few, whose merit lies in their blood of the whig over the lories of the popular bianch of the constitution over the aristocratic of the latent republicanism .which always existed in England, and which brought Charles I. to the block. It is not an ill founded hope, that the triumph ol Mr. Canning xvill lead to. the speedy emancipation of the Catholics, and the restoration of the oppressed and generous Ireland, to human rights, and that the

The law of the present day, however, punishes it by heavy damages, as many no doubt have felt to their sorrow. At a late sitting of the Baltimore county court, Miss Mary Morse, for a breach of marriage promise, recovered 3000 the whole amount of damages claimed in the declaration, from Henry Tornlinson. Another case similar to the preceding one has been decided in favour ol the pbiintiffin Alleghany county court, in which damages amounting to" 1953 was awarded. The Warren (Pa.)
