ARRIVAL OF RosrRr OwES, riir UNIVERSAL
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES FOR Pace
Robert Owen the philosopher and patriot of the
human race, arrived in town Yesterday, on his
way to Washington. He has been ont to England
during the last two months, on very important
mission, intended to preserve the relations of
peace between the two greatest nations of the
world, meaning thereby England and the United
States-John Bull and Brother Jonathan. 1t
was but the other day almost, that we saw
Mr.. Owen depart the cars from WASH
ington en- route for London, to have a talk
with Lord Aberdeen, Sir Robert Peel, aud
all the other great men, relative to the
settlement of the question about Oregon, and for
preserving the peace of the world against throat
cutting Mr. Owen has, since his return in the
Hibenia, taken a trip to Albany, saw the great
New York Convention, laid some intellectual eggs
in that philosophical body, back to this city,
and is now on his way to Washington.


Mr.. Owen called and had an important inter-
view with us on the peace of the world and the
destiny of the human race. He deems the con-
ductors of the newspaper press IN America to
possess greater powers over the two continents
than even Preaiers or Presidents, Pakenhams or
Polks Kings or princes of the blood. We think
so too. During this interview Mr.. Owen gave us
great deal OF interesting information as to the
results of his mission to England. After taking
chair, and sitting down, and pulling off his hat,
and rubbing back his beautiful silvery locks, he
looked up to heaven, and into etc rnty, with his
mild, benevolent, and beaming eyes, with looks
such those Of Isaiah, or Jeremiah or any of fthe
old prophets, or patrarchs, when, in their day,
they would speak to the young generation OF the
faithful.


Con my arrival in England" said Mr. Owen,
:" went to London, and had interviews with
Lord Aberdeen, Sir Robert Peel, Mr.. Golden,
and number of other highly distinguished lead
ers Of both parties in the British Parliament
The friendliness expressed by these distinguished
men was undoubted; and there is no doubt that
peace will be preserved between the two coun-
tries without any sacrifice of honor, on either
side" Tor waste of saltpetre.1 Mr.. Owen thinks
that the ultimatum has been sent to Mr.. Paken-
ham, and the terms will be the futy-ninth zaral-
lei to the Straits of FMca, and through the Straits
to the Pacific, giving the whole of Vancouver's
Island, with the free navigation Of the Columbia,
for term of ten years to England Whether
this will be accepted by Mr. Polk, is another
question. Mr.. Owen also thinks, that the United
States since war has broken out between Mexi-
co and this country, ought to have California, but
whether the new position which has taken place
between the United States and Mexico may in
terere with the Oregon negotiation, is not cer-
tain. In the present state of the world, the news
paper press Of both countries, in Mr. Ovens OPT
Mon, is the most efficient instrument for pre-
serving the peaceful relations between countries
The tone of both the American and British press
is improving becoming more elevated rising in the
scale ofphianthropy, and may soon, beyond doubt,
in his estimation, be capable of being the organ
of new state Of society, dispense with priests,
presidents, and kings, which is about to take
place at the commencement Of the Millennium,
and the full success of electricity.


On the whole, Mr.. Owens +" mission Of peace
has been entirely successful; and by the mild
light OF his eye, the eoquence of his tongue, and
veneration which is due to age and wisdom, the
British government and the American govern
nent, will probably be brought to terms of COM
mon sense and common decency, and settle all
their quarrels without cutting each others throats
This is Mr.. Owens opinion, and ifhe can accom-
plish it, well and good.


IMPORTANT FROM CANADA.-Letters have been
received in this city from Canada, stating that fif-
/ teen hundred volunteers have been organized in
Quebec for the Mexican war, and that an agent is
now on his way to Washington, delegated to offer
their services the President of the United States
1t is also highly probable that volunteer companies
will be raised in Montreal and other cities of Ca
NADIA, and that a large proportion of the force
quistc for the prosecution Of the war with Mexico
will be furnished by our Canadian neighbors.


So that, in fact, the clustering and hostility ma
infested by the Canadian press towards this coun-
try, is not endorsed by the people of Canada We
understand that vast majority of the Canadian
people, probably nine-tenths, entertain the most
friendly and sympathetic feelings towards this
country. The Canadians preparing to mani
fest that sympathy by tangible proofs, and we
should not be at all surprised il they should send
five thousand troops the banks ofthe Rio Grande
to prove their friendliness towards the United
States. The Montreal Herald and the Quebec Mer-
curry, have mostly contributed to the existence of
this friendly feeling towards the United States
Their devotion to the success of republican insti-
tutions is duly appreciated in this country. They
ought to have medals. IN. b. When Canada
wants to be annexed, we don't think we can take
their editors, but we'll see.l But this is not ALL
We have every reason to believe that as soon as
the news reaches England of the war, and of the
brilliant deeds of General Taylor, we may expect
alarge body of volunteers from England, proba-
bly, supported and paid by the Mexican bond hold
crs. Who knows!


! LATEST FROM HAYTI.-We have received our re
guar file Of papers up to the 18th ult., by the brig
Hayt, Captain Mores. The Haytien, or negro
part Of the Island, is still disturbed with insurrec-
tons, and may almost be said to be in a state of
anarchy and civil war.


There appears to exist much apprehension re-
lative to the course which France intends to pur-
sue towards the country in the indemnity to be
paid, in annual annuites to the old colonies of St.
Domngo,as concluded upon by the treaty between
France and Hayti in 1888, which has not been
paid for the last four years Much alarm is now
felt from the menacng attitude of France; ship
