JVetv Papers. We have been fovored, in exchange, with the LouiSville Journal, published at Louisville, Ky. by Prentice & Buxton, hnd Edited by the Senior part* ncr, to whose chaste and able productions the N. E. Review owes much of its popularity in the literary world. We are pleased ’to see that foe pen of our young friend Buxton is riot entirely idle—He has a mind of no ordinary character. The Journal is printed with fine materials, Daily, and Weekly, on a sheet equal in size to foe largest Eastern City papers, and supports foe American System with great ability. 1 The following brief extract is from foe introductory address of Mr. Prentice: “Henceforth I am a Kentuckian —in heart and soul, one of yourselves. I still remember the land of my birth—the classic clime of New England—with a IjB&s pure and Fervent as was ever poured upon blue skies aitd beautiful vales—bimhat land is no longer my home. There my thoughts first ran wild in the ccstacy of new existence;. there are the, frieads, whose love has teen with me as a guardian spirit through life; there are the blessed temples, in which my young head was first bowed in prayer; there are the tombs of those, who have gone and left mo a solitary wanderer; it is for these things that my affections still yearn toward that far off land—-but I have taken leave of' it forever, and my fortunes are now cast among you. The Dove of Memo--ry will sometimes stray abroad to bring me the olive bough of early love —but here ■is die arit of my rest. I know your noble qualities—L know, that a more chivalrous and lugh-minded people live not upon the face of the earth—and with such a people lam willing to live and die. ; I come among you as the friend of Henry Clay—the man, who has stood by you in every trying time; who, with the strength of a giant, has sustained your character and your rights in the councils of the nation—who has been the guiding spirit of patriots in every clime—and whose whole careettfis a bright galaxy along the firmament of his country’s glory.” The Union is foe title of anew paper which hail g us from Trenton, N. J. It is neatly printed on a fine Imperial Sheet, looks better thaaany Jersey paper we have seen, is Edited with equal force, and supports correct measures. i The Lady’s Book, foe Prospectus of which is in this paper, U a fine specimen of art and taste. The i -Senior Editor is agent for foe publisher. The Casket, arid foe Saturday Evenino Post, published by S. C.. Atkinson, Philadelphia, are too well known to require commendation fionTus. They are both to be considerably improved. The Senior Editor of this paper is also agent for Mr. Atkinson. Setting aside many papers received from a distance, we-have tlproe new aqeq, io our own State. The Richmond Palladium, published by Nelson Boon, at Richmond, lnd. of Super Royal size, looks well, and promises usefulness. The Editor declares himself strictly neutral iu politics. The New Albanv Gazette is published at New Albany and foe Columbus Chronicle at Columbus. We feel bound to remark that the Greenbbuegh Coeoniclb has gone into foe hands of Thomas Dowling, a gentleman whose productions do credit to foe jnper and State. From the United States Gazette, Dec. 25. THE NEWS. We have hews at length—Havre dates to the 4th of November. 'Hie sum of the intalltgence is, thifthe Frence ministry has boeoehanged favorable to the t&eral adlte*iUo the late revolution. La Frrra is made president of the council and minister of finance. Serious disturbances have taken place in Antwerp; that city has been cannonaded By the Dutch and much injury done to pcrsijshs and property, the latter to the aof eight millions of dollars, It is recommended by some, that Antwerp be dedafej a free city, nnd thus be put undeTthe Protection of all commercial nations.

Doh Juan Van Haien has been arrested as a traitor to the Belgians, in correspondence with the King of Holland. This justifies (supposing him guilty) the strictures which appeared upon the man and his writings, in the last number of the American Quarterly. Mr. Manners Sutton Was unanimously elected speaker of the English House o£ Commons on the 26th Oct. The King’s speech, which would be delivered about the 2d ult will be received by the next arrival, i The Prince of Orange has gone to Eng- 1 land. ° The Duke of Wellington, on returning from the Parliament House, was beset by a mob, and narrowly escaped voilencc. This is tlie idolized victor sf Waterloo, and the minister under whom liberal principles have had the most effectual advancement. Election of U. 6. Senator had not taken place in Kentucky, on the 25th. The parties are so equally divided that the result is considered doubtful. Reid is authorized to act as Agent for this paper, in Richmond, lnd. and Isaac Pabker, in Henry Cos. Ind. Gubernatorial Messages. We have a heavy bundle of these documents by us, but cannot find room to review them at length. Gov. Edwards, of Illinois, argues ably in favor of the State’s right to the “eminent doptain.” Gov. Metcalf, of Kentucky, is against proscription for opinion’s sake, and driving the Indians off of their own lands, and in favor of the American System. Gov. Trimble, of Ohio, holds doctrines similar to Gov. Metcalf. ' Gov. Miller, now U. S. Senator, thinks the Tariff clearly unconstitutional, doubts the right of Congress to enforce its provisions on S. Carolina, and as a retaliatory measure, would prohibit Yanke pedlars and Westen drovers from bringing their articles of trade within the State’s dominions. He is a real nullifyer.

Gov. Floyd, of Virginia, is full of the Southern doctrines. Gov. Wolf, of Pennsylvania, passes a compliment on Jackson, writes handsomely, and argues forcibly and correctly. We give the follwing extract from his Message, to raise the wonder of our readers, that he should still be considered, and call himself, a supporter of the National administration. “The protecting policy hithertoo sustained by the general government, cannot, under existing circumstances, be abandoned or relinquished, with the approbation or consent of the people of Pennsylvania. Their interests, their prosperity, and, I may add, their comforts, are at this time essentially identified with that policy. The diversified branches of industry in which our citizens are engaged; the character of the productions peculiar to our soil; the state of the foreign markets to which we had heretofore been accustomed to resort for the sale and exchange of our staple commodities, and the interesting duties by which the produce of our agriculturalists is excluded.from those markets, leuve us no alternative as to the course to be pursued. We must either suffer our surplus produce to perish upon our hands, or we must esiablish a market, for its consumption, at home. We most either submit to the humiliating condition of becoming tributary to foreign industry; or, by affording encouragement to our own, render ourselves independent of foreign imposition and exaction. Under the encouragement and protection now afforded, our manufacturing establishments are assuming a vigorous and healthful appearance, and give reasonable promise of promoting the general prosperity of the country, and of accomplishing the great end and design contem plated by the friends and advocates of the protecting system. Happily for us in Pennsylvania, we have no constitutional difficulties to embarrass us in reference to this system. Our statesmen who have hitherto represented us in the national legislature, as well as in that of the state, have uniformly expressed their opinions affirmatively, and in terms by no means equivocal, that this nation possesses the right, under the constitution, to protect its industry, by salutary enactments of its own, against the injurious consequences of foreign legislation, and that the acts of Congress imposing duties on imports, are constitutional; and their constituents have as unequivocally responded to those opinions. Although extensively engaged in the construction of works of Internal Improvement within her own limits, and at her own individual expense, Pennsylvania has uniformly, with a magnanimity and spirit of patriotism which does her honor, advocated and maintained the constitutional right of the general government to aid in the construction of works of internal improvement of a, national character; tending to bind, and to connect more closely together the remote parts of our widely extended territory; to multiply the facilities of communication between the different parts of foe Union; to diminish time and distance in the intercourse of its citizens with ench other; to beget, by means of such intercourse, feelings of amity, kindness and friendship, instead of those sectional jealousies, local prejudices, and unkind and uncharitable prepossessions, which a want of free and friendly intercommunication is alwavssuie toproduce; and generally, to increase the comforts, and promote the prosperity anil happiness of the people of the United States.

THE I,MY'S BOOK. * Tats publication bat reached it* Sixth number; and the Proprietor* are happy to bo able ; to slate, that tba patroi.Hgo thin for bestowed, ha* been quite oommenturute with their expectation*. j. The design of the work hit* already been fril(,y *teted in the Prospectus* taWrJteeawlv gathered from aft inspection itfWdonfonlr. To furnish a constant supply of useful and elegant Literature, selected with a view to the 1 gratification and instruction of all classes, but more particularly to the Ladies, has been, and will continue to be* the leading object of the Publishers; and,.from the evidence* of aucces* already obtained, they have do reason to doubt the entire accomplish foe at of their purpose. Every accessible source from whence materials might be gathered, Kim been laid under contribution, without regard to expense. The best journals, both Foreign and American, are received at the earlieet datee; nnd from these, careful selections of the best artioles will eontinue to be made, in such a way as will most likely combine novelty, variety, utility, arid intereit. 1 / 1 Original articles, translations of approved foreign productions, are furnished by able hands, and the poetical department is enriched by the contributions of Authors of distinguished reputation and merit. In a word, no means are left untried to make the Literary character of (ho work equal at toast to ariy similar publication. The Embellishments are of a very superior order. Engravings suited to the character of the work, executed by the most skilful artists, am bound up with each number, accompanied by appropriate descriptions of the various subject* 1 ' Particular care has been taken to make the department of the Faahions and the Toilet, inviting and attractive, to which end the ruling style is explained and illustrated by copperplate engravings. As an evidence of the general favor which The Lady’s Book has acquired, we publish some of the notices which have been taken of it by contemporary Editors. These will show the high estimation in which it is now held; and the Publishers pledge themselves so use every effort to improve its value, and thereby render it worthy of patronage. \ - Os the mechanical execution of the work, the Publisher* do oot hesitate to speak in term* of strong commendation. For neatness, accuracy, and beauty, they believe Th 6 Lady’s Book will not suffer in comparison with Wy work |o this country. CONDITIONS This work is issued in numbers, on the first of every month, comprising fifty-six large octavo pages; printed on fine super-royal paper with entirely new type, and carefully stitched in colored covers. Every*number will contain a piece of Music, one Copper-plate Engraving, and at least four Wood Cuts, illustrative of some of the contents, and every three months a colored Plate of the latest Fashions. The subscription price is three dollars per annum, payable in ADVANCE—2S per cent, semi-annually, will be added to all subcriptions that remain unpaid, and the work discontinued to those who neglect to settle up their arrears.
