THE ARGENTINE REPUBLIC. I pfontJUjr Bflrnyrt ot tit* BuiImm *ud Politic! of B? >11 4)rra. I Kr<im the Buenoa Ayres Packet. Jan 11 ] We fee J authorised to announce a Might improve ment in the general tone and prospects of our mar ket. The panic consequent on the late crisis has greatly subsided, and capitalist* are less chary in affording the accommodation necessary in a com mercial community. In articles suited to the in terior markets, there has latterly been a considera ble demand, although still at low figures, from the heavy stocks on hand, and the eager competition of sellers. 'lite importation* during the month of December, are formidable in appearance, though, perhaps, from the nature of the assortments, not so much so in intrinsic \alue. At the same time, the consump tion of this capital and province, especially in ar ticles of primary necessity, is greatly increased, from the rapid increase of population, from immi f ration and natural causes. He-ides, a new distri ution has gradually taken place, that tends to alleviate the inure immediate pressure. The spirit of over speculation and monopoly among the local traders, has received a severe and salutary check, and a greater amount of the existing stock remains in the hamls of the importers, with a proportional reduction of local liabilities. This fact is more im portant than may at first sight appear, and affords a beautiful illustration of the ni medicatrix wittu tr, or the self rectifying process of nature. The reck less competition ot speculators and monopolists, tended to mislead importers, and the supplies ordered ware regulated more by the apparent de mand, than the actual consumption. As matters >tand at present, we have a sale guarantee against the recurrence of this error, a principal cause of the lnt? derangement, and of the present languor and lassitude of this market. The active demand for country produce, and the higb prices obtained, especially for wool, has lat terly put a large amount of capital in circulation; to which we may add the opportune and considerate liberality of the government, in paying off the war jinbaidic'i, and spiritedly carrying on a variety of important local improvements that tend directly to alleviatetlie immediate pressure, whilst they confer a lasting benefit on the country. Society naturally subdivide-, itself into distinct grades and classes; but their interests are more intimately blended and mutually dependent, than many are apt to imagine. When the industrial and pioductive classes arc fully employed and prosperous, genuine trade and commerce cannot long remain depressed; aud the ca?ie&t aud only effectual w ay of protecting and promoting the latter, is to afford free scope and en couragement to the former. In tne Comercutdd Plata of Montevideo, we have latterly observed a eaptious and unfounded theory on this point; showing an absolute ignorance, or, what wauld be worse, a gross and willful perversion of the elementary principles of economical science. In a series of articles on the I'aper Money of Buenos Ayre-s, intended merely to denigrate the adminis tration of (Jeneral Hosas, the editor attempted to show the practicability, and consequent obligation, of remedying or alleviating the late cri.-is, by a system of loans to individuals from the l'ublic Trea sure. In the first placc, no government entitled to do with public funds, what a pru< individual would decline doing with his private tortune ; and, isecondly, the expedient, if acted upon, would, to a certain extent, have sanctioned ami encouraged the error, ami ultimately aggravated instead of allevi ating the e^. Between ounce speculations and at tempted monopolies of imported goods, the com merce of Huenos Ayres had, in many instances, lost its legitimate character; and any attempt on the part of the government to save individuals from the consequences of their own reckless conduct, would have been a positive injury and injustice to to the public, without accomplishing the end pro posed. With his intuitive sngaeity and correct apprecia tion of abstract principles, ? eneral Kosas pursued ? very different coarse. Instead of attempting to ->ave individual", he acted on the broad and equita ble principle of allevintiug, as far as possible, the general body. l>uring the first shock of the grand crisis, lie ordered the immediate payment ot' up ward* of two millions of return duties; and the en tire disbursements on this account t hroughout the jear, amount to no less than .?? reals. Ifeavy payments were at the same time made to in ditiuuaU on account of a long standing arrear of war aubeidiea. Availing himself of the favorable state of tltf market, and conciliating, as in duty l>ound, the public ser* ice with a social convenience, an abundant supply of clothing and other neces xariea, was laid ib for the army and navy, and the watebait.-es of the State amply furnished tor the coming year. Add to tbesettte active employment already alluded to. in important local improve ments, and it will l>e seen that General Kosas did all that could be doiM with propriety in the circum stance*; alleviating tlie pressure ot public mi-t'or tune, by the discharge ot public obligations, and with the ta^t of an enlightened and provident states man, rendering his present outlay, subservient to the future security aud prosperity of the republic. That partie- in Montevideo, an ustoiued to forestall the fot we, and live from <lay to day on the preca rious bounty of a foreign subsidy, should not eotn Crehend tlie operation of sueh a system, is little t<> e wondered at; but common prudence might at least teach them to avoid the use of silly sneer* an I .??rca.-m-.

Among the ubjeeti of art from France, the moat attractive will be the colossal group of M. Jean da Seignear, representing St. Michael overthrowing Satan. The subject Is taken from Milton. This /roup 18 thirteen feet high, the figure* being nine feet in proportion. The conception is bold and original. Valuable work of art from spain. A gentleman has arrived in 1-Ingland from Barce lona, having with him a mosaic table of the most ex traordinary beauty. It would be difficult to form a correct notion of the immense labor bestowed on this porduct ion of skill, or of its e xceeding beauty, without seeing it, and having explained to the beholder the almost numberless pieces which it comprises, and the period that a large number of individual* have been occupied in it? composition. We believe that it is intended to offer this extraordinary work of art as a present to the Queen, and then to request her per mission for it to form a j>art of the enduing exhibi tion. COMTI BUTTONS FIOM THE BLIND. The Gattxheud Obxervrr states that, if on no other account, the fact that her Majesty is the patron of the Royal Victoria Asylum for the Mind, es tablished in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, would have promoted the committee to aid an exhibition of industry projected by her royal consort, Prince Albert. But tliere is also the additional motive of winning new wreaths for the blind girls, and attracting new customers to the institution. ? i Therefore, all the resources of the fair inmates ? have been taxed, and three contributions have j been made which will vie in taste and ingenuity i with any productions of t lie kind that may be sent ! by rivals endowed with the advantage of sight. I There is, first, a veil of white linen thread, an exact ! counterpart of tho tribute loyally paid by the Vic ? toria Asylum to the queen on the liixh Level ( Bridge. This will be exhibited on light blue satin. , There will also be a veil, similar in pattern, made from black woollen thread, exhibited on orange satin. The third and last contribution is a Spanish mantilla of black woollen thread,cxhibitedon orange 1 satin, which must strongly tempt many a maiden's heart to disregard the tenth commandment. The three contributions will be enclosed in a glass eas<j, i lest fair fingers should itch to handle the shawl and veils. "Tiy them on." THKKF. MILLION ST ITCH US.

March 14 ] We hare but little time left to set our house in order, before the arrival of our expected visiters from the continent <>f Europe. Cireat activity U shown uncertain points, anil great neglect upon others. Now, we much doubt if any very great : discretion is exercised in the selection of itnprovc ' merits. For example, almost preternatural activity has been displayed in hitching the mirble arch into position at Cumberland-gftte. It is a question if eyes which have been accustomed to rest upon the i Arc de l'Ktoile, or the Hr&ndenburg gate, will derive much gratification from the spectacle. Again, ' as we have been informed, considerable exer : tions have been made to get the armed war riors of the Tower, and the apartment appro priated to their use, into presentable trim, lieiiry VIII. h?s been for some weeks past enveloped in a richly-sprigged dressing-gown: a railway rug , has been wrapped round the shoulders of the * gallant Brandon; anl the heads of the buff-coated soldiers of the com mun wealth hive been comfort ably swathed in linsey-woolsey nightcaps, lest their armor should contract soil oe stain while the beautifying is in progress. This is all well enough in iti way, but our foreign visiters could very well have dispensed with this excess of steel-dandyism. ? It would have given u< more satisfaction to hear that the shabby dean and chapter of the metropo litan cathedral had finallv suppressed the paltry lee i exacted at their gates. Far ne it from us, however, to sneer nt the exertion* of those who, within their particular departments, are doing their utmost to ]sdi>h up " the sights of London. We would only suggest that there are other points of more imme diate importance to the comfort of our visitors, which should not he lost sight of in the midst of all this scrubbing and varnishing. The principal ob ject which a Frenchman, or a German, or an Italian will have in view during his stay in London will of ; eout?e be the "great exhibition" itself. The prac , tical problem for his solution will be how, in the most economical and comfortable manner, he can be lodged, fed, and conveyed about the town during the iieiiod of his stay. The question of supplying bed and b )ard to our expected guest# must, of course, bo left in t h'? hands j of private speculators. Snne misgivings we may secretly t ntertain uj?>n the amount of comfort they , mar manage to extract from our feather-beds and I underdone beefsteaks ; but in such a matter ad ministrative interference i 4 a mere impossibility. The ft w who can afford to pay largely will fare well. The many who must look somewhat closely I tothecost of their entertainment will no doubt ex perience various degrees of discomfort and sutfering. Tint if wecan do nothing for them 011 this point, at , Ica?t wecan insist that every facility shall ne given them lor tea versing the streets of London without b - 1 ing subjected t? any very grievous extortion or an noyance. The distance* ??!' London, even to the in habitant- of the largest continental capital, appear enormous. In addition to this evil, which is irre deemable, it must tie remembered that the uniform ity in the a p poo ranee of our streets reniers it a task of very great difficulty for any but a well seasoned Londoaor to find his way from < ne oiner of the town to the other. Foreigners sre under the absolute necessity of relying up on public conveyances? omnibuses, cab-, and the like. As far as the omnibuses are concerned, we are not aware that much can be done, beyond enforcing it as a peremptory rnlo that nut ice -hull I'o kim n in -ome unniisiaka bli manner of the points at which half-fart's end and whole fare* begin. Even : it 11 certain d gn e of imposition is inevitable under this head, at lea?t we h.i.e the comfortable r Sec tion that it cannot exooed -td. in amount.

[tr> m tl" KfklMIN Klpn "S ] The i.o:m dit g' and pla'n fittings on the enstom Hide of the building are now nearly complete, ami an opportunity is a?w4>d of forming sn appro ti mnli estimate of the amount of the coalriiiations 1 of ,.jv . d fi 0111 loreign countries. Many ofth^nom. I ? 1 1 nv nt - are, as ytf, quite fmifty? Sv artiral* from the United States have taken place up to the prevent time; and Bratil, Mexico, and Greece, seem equally dilatory. From Norway and Sweden same mall consignments have been forwarded, and K us fia has already contributed about 230 packages. The quantity of goods which have reached the build ing itself from Austria, is inconsiderable, the bulk of the product* of that country being retaiued in the dock warehtMM* until the space set apart for their display is fitted up. A number of German carpen ters aie at present busily employed, and nearly the_ whole of the counters and cases in that portion of the Austrian compartment which is on the north side of the ceutral avenue, will be con structed by them. The most copious contri butors hitherto are the Zollvereiu, Belgium, aud Switzerland; and in the Chinese coiu|>artmeut there is alreadv a respectable assemblage of cases. France, however, strange to say, is very much behindhand. The number of packages received from thut country up to yesterday, did not much exceed 120. This unusual inactivity on the part of our (iallic neighbors does not, however, uriso from indifference to the result of the friendly con test in which they have engaged. On the contrary, they arc deeply impressed with the importance of the advantages which will bo obtained by those who are victorious in the struggle, but certain misappre hensions respecting the amount of space placed un der the control of their commissioners have effectu ally retarded the transmission to this country of their contributions. The space assigned to France if exceedingly ample, embracing in the whole about a hundred thousand squaie feet, and constituting little less than a tenth of the whole exhibiting space of the building. Out of this one hundred thousand feet, it was most distinctly inti mated by the executive committee, during their correspondence with the French commission, that 50, (XXI feet should be deducted for walks aud pas sages. It would seem, however, that the French local committees dealt with their contributors ad if the whole 100,000 feet were vailable for the display of their production*. Notice was given to persons who had obtained gold medals in their own exposi tions, that an unlimited quantity of goods would be received from them, and silver medallists wore led to believe that their treatment would be little less liberal. The natural consequence of these in considerate proceedings was an influx of contribu tions, for the accommodation of which the very ample space accorded was totally inadequate. Upon the discovery of this unpalatable fact, various de\ ices were put in requisition by the French au thorities, to procure either an extension of their spacer, or a curtailment of the extent of the pas sages by whieh they are traversed. The execu tive committee, however, were inexorable. They pointed to the faet that the original number of British contributors was 9,000, who, by the exercise called on the French commissioners to exercise a similar system of vigorous compression, and to re ject everything not .-tuin]>ed with indisputable excel lence of some kind. They are at present employed, we believe, in this work of pruning, and when tho vast mass of contributions with which they have to deal (hall have been reduced within the requisite dimensions, the arrivals of French productions at the building will no doubt be liirgo and frequent. Among the most interesting of the foreign arrivals during the last few days is a colossal figure of a lion in bronze, which has been forwarded from Bava ria, and is the work of the sculptor, F. von Miller. It is upwards of nine feet high, and will form one of the most remarkable objects in the Exhibition. In the British half of the building the visible signs of progress during the past week are even more striking than in the foreign compartments. The stall- and fittings in the galleries are multiply ing fast, and no small advance has been made in the adjustment of some of the heavy machinery which has arrived. The goods now pouring in arc, of course, of the most miscellaneous character. The light spring cart conveying some delicately con structed piece of mechanism, which is handed in by its fabricator with as much care and tenderness as if it were a sick infant, alternates with the ponderous wagon sustaining some huge piecc of machinery who^e reluctant weight Ls dragged with difficulty to its destination by the united ettorts of a dozen horses. On Thursday about five hundred tons weight of machinery arrived at the building. Amongst this was the celebrated Britannia hydraulic press, by which the lifts of tho tube- of the railway bridge over the Menai were effected; some detached por tions of thi- wonderful machine weigh no less than 15 tons. Amongst the heavy machines fixed in their place* are a machine for illustrated printing, a brick-making machine, an enormous but very beau tifully constructed and powerful crane, and a smoke consuming machine, i'he foundations of sereral others arc in progress, and a strenuous activity pre v ails in the '? machinery quarter" of the building ? an activity by no means uncalled for, when the shortness of the time is taken into consideration, in which thefixingofthe ra^t assemblage of machines, destined fur exhibition, must be completed. The painting of the interior of the building is now proceeding at a rapid rate ; Messrs. Fox and Ilci)rter?on having entered into a fresh contract, by which they are bound to have it completed within a fortnight. Judging from the progress made withiu the last few days, there is no doubt but that they will accomplish the task they have undertaken. ? The gallery railings are nearly all in their places, and the staircases are quickly approaching comple tion. Carpenters are at present employed in con structing frames which are to be employed in test ing with shot the strength of the galleries. These frames are on castors, and *a<-h contains com partments for the reception of fiSlb. shot; all move able in any direction, aud with the aeaessary amount of speed, with the greatest facility.

Km though an insigniticai:! seetioa of the > ninin<i j nite had alwevs sf?-> tally ibrdnl itself to the c*lti ' \ at ipb wl auU '.'tnu?k <v??t nuuit, iu the great bum of Englishmra it had become practically extinct a* a principle of Mtion, except *o far as it occasionally colored their view of the everlasting perplexities of the Irish question. Then came the Pope * brief and andthe Cardinal's pastoral. The eneuiy, who had passed into the condition of a myth, astuined a pal pable and aggressive reality, aud a point and mean ing was given to lessons which had hitherto been sterile. ?The country seemed, for the moment, to rally to Exeter Hall, and iudignation at encroach ment began burning with an intensity which would doubtless have been less violent in ita immediate manifestations if our contact with the usurping pow er had been closer and more constant. Just so, the New England populations have been brought up in convent tonal abhorrence of negro slavery, against whieh the whole economy of their society is a standing protest. Hitherto they have contem plated it from a distance, through tho obscure aud embarrassed medium of sectional controversies at Washington, and they have been content to aban don its permanent condemnation to the abolitiouist societies. The Fugitive Slave bill passes; an arrest is effected in their streets ? and lo ! the accursed thing is there in the midst of them. A just cause has been damaged by the excess of irritatiou in which they have momentarily indulged; and it would bo vain to deny that their turbulence contrasts very un favorably with the dutiful, though reluctant, acqui escence of the Middle States, whose intercourse with he South has furnished a due corrective to their judgment on the matter. '1 ncre is little room for doubt that tho measures whieh have convulsed the Boston populace were ex pressly shuped to that cud l>v their authors. The re covery, untfer process, of a slave from New England Involves so much trouble, vexation, and expense, that it is morally impossible that it should be undertaken as a commercial speculation; and, indeed, we believe thut the two arrests attempted have been separately traccd to the malignity of a disuniouist volunteer. As it is probable that new provocatives will be freely administered, the degree of subsequent danger will depend on the grearer or less rapidity with which the New Engfanders resume tneir characteristic reverence for the law. Patriotic counsel does not appear to be wanting; and really among the most ingenious, if not the most scrupulous, of the advocates of moderation, we must class the author of the placard directed against Mr. CJeorgc Thoiu]* son, w nich we printed yesterday. Tho member fur tho Town Hamlets has been perambulating the North eastern States on what he styles, with considerable vairrtt, a " professional tour, aud we hear that he has already nad the distinguished honor of creating some half-ilftcen riots. An opponent of less perspi cacity would have missed the advantage afforded by Mr. riioin]>soii's English distinctions; but Lexing ton is down on the sore point in an instant, ana, dexterously commencing with calling his victim an "English serf," he proceeds to argue that u member of tho British Parliament who devotes himself to sedition in America, must necessarily have been paid by his government to bring the Union into con tempt. Perhaps this is a little too bad. Mr. Thompson's pecuniary transactions are scrupulously confined to dealings with Oriental despots; and we believe that it would be unfuir to inler, from his connection with the cabinets of Delhi and Sattura, that he is a stipendiary of Lord Palinerston's on mission. We find it stated that lie intends to re main a little longer in America, for tho purpose of living down calumny; but, for his own sake, and for the jieace of the country, we trust he will return at once; and the next time he falls into conversation with his political friends on the subject of General Haynau, |>erhups he will describe to them the pecu liarly correct impression of a distinguished foreigner which nn enlightened mob derives from rumor and the newHpnjK'r*.

The Queen of Kngland is said to be once more In that interesting situation which promises to add another member to the royal futility. It is stated that the King Consort of Portugal, accompanied by his two sons, intends visiting L>n don during the exhibition. The usual return relative to the number of per sons employed on railways, and the length of line o|tcncd in t.reat Britain, has been printed. The totiil number of persons employed on all railway* in the united kingdom, open and unojien, in the year I was 15H.784 : vix., 114,013 in Kngland and Wale., in Ireland, and 27,277 in Scotland. The length of line open throughout the united kingdom wa< 5,117, that in course of construction 1 ,50 1, and that neither open nor in course of con struction 5,1.12. The total length of line authorised was 12, 0M3. The Intlrprmlnnrr of Brussels, announces that the OrlcMs family is about to leave C'lareanont, so as not to be in Kngland during the exhibition. The Queen, It snvs. will go to Brussels; the Ihikc of Nt wours, to his father-in-law; the Prince de Join ville, either to Scotlaud or to Portugal; aud the Ifcike l>'Aiimalc to Nuplos. The absence of the family will continue as long ns the exhibition la*ts. It will lie remarked that the fusionist iMUnla fatal week mentioned the probability of the Count de Cham hold's visiting Lomlon during this very exhi bition, aud now We learn that the Orleans family leaves London as soon a* the Count de Chatnbord ajq>roaches it. ?

The limine of Lords lately heard evidence on Ilcathcotc's divorce bill and Maclean's divorce lull.

Two Chinese merchant', Ahting and Ry, have arrived at Derlin, on their way to Kngland, to visit the exhibition.

Orders have been issued that soldiers are not to raise any cries while in the ranks. These orders are for the sake of preventing the regiments leaving Paris ufter being reviewed, from saluting the President of the republic. The commissioners to be appointed by the Tier man board and the King of Denmark, to settle the boundaries of llulsteiu, are about to be named. Colonel Schmidt, of the general staff, is likely to be uppointed on the part of Prussia. The Austrian commissioner is not yet known. Italy is in an alarming state. The four papal legations may be said to be in a state of siege. No one is allowed to move about in the open country without a passport. Another general outbreak is expected. i M. de Manteuffel has replied to the Fpencli ob jections against the admittance of all the Austrian States into the (.ieruian confederation. He says that this is an internal question, and that it is be youd the competence of foreign .States to interfere with it. Tiie French Presidency. ? I am assured, says the Paris correspondent of the l^omlon Times, that the secret societies are decided on bringing forward u }tcrson taken from the lower orders of the people, as a candidate for the Presidency of the republic in 1852, and they arc now very busy in seeking such a candidate. An operative was at first suggested; but, on consideration, it was thought better to try to gain over the sympathies of the country people, and the probability is thut a peasant will be selected. Irish Linen Tram. ? This week yarns are still dull, and stocks accumulating. Some persons have ? reduced their yarns ltd. per bundle, and a further 1 reduction is expected in a few days. Weavers still continue at outdoor lubor, as the weather ii favora ble for such. In some districts not one halt1 of the ; weavers are engaged at their looms. In Bally mcua, on Saturday, sales of cloth were inactive, and in fine sets manufacturers had to give way a little, and a good quuntity of cloth was left unsold. In Armagh our correspondents write us that cloth was a shade in favor of buyers. Yarns were sold to them lower, and in some cases at a h igher discount off for cash payments. In Lurgan damasks con tinued brisk at former rutes, and eagerly bought up. The Coleraine market was dull, ami cloth was bought by somo merchants at fully Jd. per yard reduction in low sets, and Id. in finer quali ties. The news from the United Stutes is rather discouraging for 4-4 light linens, cambric handker chiefs, and blay linens, as art advance on former quotations cannot be obtained upon those goods. The sales are brisk enough, but prices are very low. Several of the vessels that were out since October and November, had not yet made their ap pearance at New York when the last steamer left; and we may here remark that the packet ship York shire has put back to Holyhead leaky, with a most i valuable cargo of linen goods. There is a large quuntity of our northern merchants' linens aboard tlie vessel, but we are glad to hear that the goods are ell insured either in London or New York. \N*e understand several of our new flax-spinning mills will be in active operation next month. Several of the millowners have raised their workers' wages, as many had signified their intention of leaving and going to the new mills, where larger wages are offered to them, and wi hear there is likely to be a scarcity of millworkers. Several families have goi.c to Manchester and Leeds at a considerable advance of wages, and a few are still leaving for England. ? Banner of Uhtrr , March 12.
