I cannot forego the expression of my regret at the apparent purport of a p?rt ol Lord Aberdeen's despatch to Mr. Fox. 1 had cher'shed the hope that all possibility of misunderstanding as to the true construction of the eighth article of the treaty lately concluded between Great Britain and the United States wis precluded by the plan and well weighed language in which it is expressed. The desire of both Governments is to put an end rs speedily as possible o the slav trade, and that desire, 1 need scarcely add. is as strongly and aVirrreply felt by the United States, as it can be by Great Britain. Yet it must not be forgotten that the trade, though now universally reprobated, wss up to a lata period, prosecuted by fdl who chose to engage in it; and there were unfortunately but very few Christian powers whoso subjects were not permitted, and even encouraged, to shsre in the profits of what was regarded .n a perfectly legitimate commerce. It originated at a period long beforo the Umit'jd States had hecorr.2 independent, am! was carried on within our borders in opposition to the most earnest remonstrance flnd expostulttioni of some of the Colonies which it was most actively prose-' CJted. Its character, thus fixed by common consent and general practice, could onlv b? changed bv th positive assent cf each and everv nation, expressed either in the form of municipal law. or conventional arrangement. The United States led tho w av in efforts to suppress it. They claimed no right to diet re to rt cr.b.il they resolved, without waiting for the co-opr-i-tioti of other powers, to prohibit it t their! own citizen, and to i it perprtraf. on by them with condign punishme;-.'.

before our laws for it suppression, the idea of yielding any thing ourselves in flag of every nation might traverse the that respect. We chose to make a pracocean unquestioned by our citizens, this tical settlement of the question. This freedom was not, in our opinion, in lite we owed to what we had already done least Abridged by our rnunicipt'l legisla- on this subject. The honor of the countion. Any other doctrine, it is plain, try called for it the honor of its (lag dewould subject to an arbitrary and ever man led that it should not be used by varying maratime police, and adopted at others to cover an iniquitous traffic. This wili by the great naval power for the time Government ! am very sure, has both the being, the trade of the world in ady places, inclination and ability to do this; and, if or in any articles which such power might need be, it will not content itself with a see fit to prohibit il3 own subjects or ciii- fleet of eighty guns but sooner than zens. A principle of this kyid could any foreign government shall exercise the scarce'y be acknowledged, without sub- province f executing its laws, and fuljeeting commerce to the risk of constant filling its obligations, the highest of which and narrating' vexation'?. The attempt is to protect its flag alike from abuse or to justify such a pretension from the insult it would, 1 doubt not, put in reright to visit and detain ships upon rea-' quisition for that purpose, its w hole naval sonable suspicion of piracy, would de- power. The purpose of this Government servedly be exposed to universal condem- jia faithfully to fulfil the Treaty on its nation, since it would l e an attempt to: part; and it will not permit itself to doubt corrvert an established rule of iitaritime mat Great Britain will comply with it on law, incorporated as n principle into the ' hers. In this wav, peace will be best iniernational code by the consent of all na- J preserved, and the most amicable relations, into a rule and principle ado;. ted by tions maintained between the two coun-

a single nation, anil enforced only by Us assumed authority. To seize and detain a ship, upon suspicion of pirscy, with probable cause, and in good faith, affords no just ground either for complaint on the part of the nation whose flag she bares, or claim of indemnity on the part of the owner. The univcsal law sanctions, and the common good requires the existence nf such a rule. Tine rig! t und -r such circumstances, n t only to visit and detain, but to search a ship, is ft perfect right, and involves neither responsibility nor indemnity. Hut with this single exception, no nation has, in time of peace, any authority to detain the ships of another upon the high seas, on any pretext whatever, bpyond the limits of territorial jurisdiction. And such lam happy to find, is substantially ttie doctrine of Great Hrilain herself, in her most recent official ciaraiion, a tut even in thos n ;w eommunicfiie 1 to the Hour. These declaration may we'd l--d us todoi.'bt whether the. appuent diiferncrt between ihe - Govemre.ents r.ot r.it:;?r one of defini'.i'on thatt of princip'e. .ot only is the right of S .'.'. prooerlv so called, disclaimed bv Gr-'si Brit-.iin, but even that of mpre viit and inquiry, i3 aserted with qualifications inconsistent with the idea, of a perfect right. In the despatch of Lord Aberdeen to Mr. Everett, of the 20th of December. IS11, as also in that just received by the Hritis!) Ministry in this country, made to Mr. Fox. his Lordship declares that if, in sp-i" of ait tne precaution which ha!r be ued to prevent sucli occurrences, an American ship, by reason of any visit or detention by a Bri'i-'i cruiser, "shall suffer any loss f nd injury, it would be followed by prompt and ample remuneration." And in irder to make more manifest her intentions in this respect. Lord Aberdeen, in the despatch of tho '20th of December, makes known to Mr. Everett the nature f the instruction? given to the British cruizers. These are such as. if futhfu'ly observed, would enable the British Government to approximate the standard of a fair indemnity. That Government Ins, in several caser, fulfilled her promises in this particular by making adequate reparation for damage done ourcominerce. It seems obvious to remark, that a riidit which is only to be exercised tinder such restrictions and precaution", and risk, in case of any assignable damage, to be followed by the consequence-) of a trespass, can scarcely be considered anything more than a privilege asked for, and either conceded or withheld on the usual principles of international comity. The principles laid down in Lord Aberdeen's despatches, and the assurance of indemnity therein held out, although the utmost reliance was placed on the good faith of the British Government, were not regarded bv tho Executive as a suffieient security against the abuss which Lord Aberdeen admitted might arise in even the most cautious and moderate exercise of their new maritime police. And therefore in my message at the openin r of the last session, I set forth the views entertained by the Executive on this subject, and substantially affirmed both our inclination and ability to enforce our laws, protect our flag from abuse, and acquit ourselves of all our duties and obligations on the high seas. In view of these assertions, the Treaty of Washington was negot ated, and upon consultation with the British negotiator as to the quantity of force necessary to be employed in order to attain these objects, the result to which tho most deliberate estimate led. vvas embodied in the eighth article of the Treaty. Such were my views at the time of negotiating that Treaty, and such, in my opinion, is its plain and fair interpretation. I regarded the eighth article as removeing all possible pretext, on the ground of mete necessity, to visit and detain our ships upon the African coast, because of any alleged abuse of ojr Hag by slave traders of other nations.

JOHN TYLER. Wasiiigtov, February 27, 1S43. The Bis Streak. There is, we find, a dillVrence of opinion among observers, as to whether the luminous streak thai appears early in the evening upon the southwestern sky, is the Zodical light or a comet. We are told by some, who have watched it. that it disappears, not by setting beneath the horizon, but by gradually fading in the sky. If this be so, it must be, not a cornet, but the zodiacal light. The subjoined description of this latter phenomenon, which we copy from the Kncuclopcuiia Americana, may be new and interesting to many of our readers: Lou. Jour. 'Zodiacal Light a triangular beam of light, rounded a little at the vertex, which is seen atcettain seasons of the year, before the rVmg and after the setting of the sun. It resembles the font light of the miikv-way. and has its b.ise always turned towards the sun. and its axis inclined to the horizon. Tiie length of this pyramidieal light, reckoning from the sun as ,";s base, is sometimes 4o degrees, and at other' 13 ' degrees; and the vertical angle is someti.Tifs '20 degrees, and sometimes 10 decrees. D is generally supposed to rise from an atmosphere surrounding the sun, and appears to nJte heerV fir?t ;- served by Descartes and by' Uhildry in 1059: but it did not attract gen-:.al attention till it wa'H ootictu by DoatiuiqtUX sini, (q. v.) who gave it its present nnniC If we suppoe the sun to have an atmosphere, as there is every reason to believe, from the luminous aurora which appears to surround his disc in total eclipses, it must be very much flattened at its poles, and swelled out at the equator, by the centrifugal force of bis equatorial parts. When the run. then, h below the horizon, a portion of this luminous atmosphere will appear like a pyramid of light above the horizon. The obliquity of the zodiacal iight will evidently vary with the sun's equator to the horizon; and in the months rf February and March, about tho time of the vernal equirox, it will form a very crent angle with the horizon, and ought therefore, to be seen most distinctly at that' season of the vear. But when the sun is n the summer solstice, he is in the part of the ecliptic which is parallel to the equator. and. therefore, his equator, and consequently the zodiacal light, is more oblique to the horizon. Laplace, however, has made some objections to this theory in his Mecaniquc Celessfe; and Uegonier is of opinion that it is owing merely to the refraction of the solar light by the earth's atmosphere." Two or three days ago, upon the supposition that th phenomenon now observable in the evening was a comet, we wrote the subjoined article, which may be not entirely devoid of interest even though a wild "colt or comet" may not at present bo whiskering his long tail through our solar system. Comets in ancient times were objects of wonder, and the most superstitious apprehensionsfeelings which tb:,r splendid and terrific appearance was weil calculated to inspire, in the year 130, before Christ, one was seen for eight years, as large as the sun. Ten year after the Christian era, one was seen which is described as "embracing the whole heavens," and shini: g with the greatest brilliancy. The comet of 1 1 1 presented a similar magnificent appearance. According to Freret, a comet in 4.9 caused an extraordinary eclipse of the sun. In dOO. one was seen in the f rm of a sword, leaching from the zenith to the horizon. Que appeared in 531, of great magnitude and brilliancy. Since that period, the most remarkable appeared in the years 837. HOG, 145G, liilS. 1090. 1750, 17Vd, and 1811. These hail various appearances, and moved in various directions. Some had immense luminous tails; others were nebulous being surrounded by vapour, which may be understood by the term "hairy," applied to them. The !r.tin or tail, which accompanies a comet, lengthens as it approaches the sun, is always opposite to that luminary, and is probably formed by the impulsion of the sun's ravs upon the gaseous mat- - '' "' .... r" . r n rroacn u ' w:iina 1,JV'; ,J 1 sun nearer th nn bv H'O tirne than

the darth was. Of course it received

2$, 00p times as much heat, which would produce a temperature greater than that of meltefl iron. It is ditlicuU to conceive the effect which so intense a heat would have jupon the matter of the comet. The cpmet of 1450, from the length of its train, allied Europe with terror, at a time of universal consternation on account of the sirtcess of the Turks who had iust destroy ed the Greek empire. A form of prayej was ordained by Pope Callextus, in whfch he takes due notice of the comet and thje Turks. Dr. Hi alley, the contemporary and friend of Sin Isaac Newion, observed that the comet -which appeared in 1511, 160 7, and 1082, followed nearly the same path in the i heavens, and heuce he inferred that tliey were not different comets but thesKif. one returning at regular periods, and he predicted its return in 175 7. Clairanlt afterwards showed that it would be retarded two years by the attraction of the planets. It accordingly appeared in 1751. It again returned according to the prediction of astronomers in 1S33, and will return every 5 years. A comet which appeared in 115 will return in 74 years. A small comet which return ed January 19. LvJ9, returns every VZOi days, and may be een sometime during the present year about September. Another, which appeared November 7, l.-3-, returns every S or 7 years, and may be seen in li4.". These are all whose returns are known. As to the others, of which many hundreds have been seen, their patlw areunknown. The one which mav be ncen at present, if it be a comet seems a stranger in our system. It is certainly little inferior to any in brilliancy of appearance. !

Indeed he considers it probable that ovh an event ii?.s once taken p'.ar'C and tht it produced a change in th?arth'9 snxis.

The march of intelligence is ceitainly "onwards" in this magnificent country of ours; this being one of the pleasantest manifesta tions cf it we havo seen. Another proof appears in Philadelphia in this wise: A! female residing in Vine street was eo "carried aw3y" a few days since, by the preaching of the old humbug, that one of the papers says her friends have to keep a constant watch on her actions, fearful that she may commit suicide.

The effects of the Earthquake in the

Windward Islands, of which we have already had some partial accounts, would appear from the intelligence received at Baltimore, by a vessel arrived there from Porto Rico, to have, been terrific. We cannot but hope that the statement of its consequences in Gaudaloupe will prove to be greatly exaggerated. The same shock it will be recollected, has been felt at sea by several vessels. Two distinct fchock9 have also been felt in the valley of the Mississippi; one on the 4th of January and the other on the 16th of February. N. Y. Cour. Enq.

A simple but most ingenious invention has been laid before us in the shape ojan improvement in the horse shoe. It is that of makin that part of the shoe which is now solid concave; by which thd foot is enabled to take a grip, which withjthe otdinary shoe, js impossible. Thej principle is, in fact, that of the fluted ska:e; and whilst the shoe is of course, ghterthan when manufactured on the .'usual principle, it is equivalent in siippejy weather, or on w ood pavement, to one that is roughed. The concavity tuns entirely round the shoe, having a strong rirn in form, equal in thickness to the hoof of the horse's f ot. and another at the back of half that thick ness. This mode of formation, whilst it involves the use of a small quantity of iron, and consequently less weight, give? a far greater purchase and is much more in accordance with the nature, form, and texture of the horse's foot. By preventing the necessity of turning up the shoe behind, it places the foot in a more natural position, and thus assists in trtn-r-l ing into operation the frog, irmead of cing it out 01 action, and straining all the Qthf-r parts of the foot. United Service Gazette. England. A writer in tho Spirit of the Times recommends a shoe, which we like better. It is made only half as thick at the heel as at the toe. in order that the frog, (an elastic substance designed to relieve the stroke of the horny part of the hoof,) may coma in contact with the ground. The inner angle of the bottom sid'j of the shoe is hollowed oat. 30 ?.n to conform M the scoop of the hoof;and when the horse's foot strikes the ground, a curve (in the ground or snow) arises under it, corre'ponding with the ho'Iow of the shoe end hoof. which prevents slipping. The shoe has no corks nor heels, but for slippery rods the nails are brought to a point and hardened, and project J cf an inch.

The comet which we mem o:.ed, on Saturday, as having been seen at the East, is thus described by a writer in the IVfcw Bedford Mercury, N. Y. Erprets. "Its brilliancy was almost equrl to that of Venus. Its situation is very near the limb of the sun. Its tail appears about tnree degrees in length. It may be the comet announced, some threp months since, in Europe. It was then traversing the constellation Draco. Be it that or another, it is of rare brilliancy. There are but three on record of sufficient brilliancy to be seen in the day season. The first was forty-three years before Christ, and : called "'a hairy star;" it was ?eeu with the naked eye in day-time. The second was

seen in the vear 1402, and was eo bri!iant that the light of the un, at hi end of March, d:d not h'uder reop'e seeing it at mid-dav.
