NEVs BY THE CAMBRIA. The arrival Of the
steamer Cambria has furnished information from
England and France one month later than had
been before received. The news from England
is important, as showing the determination OF
the British ministry to change the system Of the
country, by abandoning the protective policy,
and approxmatng as nearly as is practicable
to free trade. Should the ministers succeed III
carrying their proposed measures through par
lament, it will give an immense impetus to
TO encounter a formidable opposition in the
House of Lords, and among the land proprie-
tors, and tho result may, therefore, be consd =
cred doubtful


We are pleased to see that the Oregon ques-
ton has been treated with dignity and modera-
ton both in parliament and by the public press;
and that the feeling exhibited is of the most
friendly character. This is as We anticipated.
The hectorng speeches of some of our mem
bers OF Congress have failed to attract much
attention, and have produced no excitement in
England. II is there considered almost impos-
slble that the two countries can engage in war
for Oregon, unless we nady resolve to rush
into it, Now is the proPitious moment to close
the dispute. The English ministers are in
condition Of mind 10 settle the question AMIGA
bly, and fairly; and if we have the like DISPOSE
ton, the whole matter may DO peaccably ad-
Iusted IN short time; and the two nations
hereafter enjoy, uninterrupted, that intercourse
and friendship so essential to the prosperity and
greatness Of both. We hope, then, that the ne
gotiations will be renewed; and that zach party
will approach the subject with honest inten-
tions and liberal feelings.


1t will be observed that the French minister
notices the allusion in the Presidents message
to the alleged interference of France in the af-
fairs Of Texas. According to NJ. Guzot, there
are three, and but three, nations, who are
grasping after an extension of territory, viz
Russia, England and the United States-and
France must watch the movements of these
powers closely to prevent either from destroy
ing the "balance of power" France is unam-
bilious, but takes good care to seize territory
wherever she can lay her hand on it with safe
ty. She has seized Algcrs, which M. Guizot
says she is bound in honor to keep; and if she
could add Morocco, she would no doubt consi-
der herself equally bound to retain the con-
quest. We despise this canting aud hypocrisy.
1t is with nations as with individuals: none
are content with their possessions, and each
seeks to enlarge its boundaries, even where it
has to be accomplished by injustice and oppres
sion.


The next arrival from England will probably
bring the result of the vote in Parliament upon
Mr.. Peel's bill to reduce dutes-and the dec-
sion will have most important bearing upon
the interests Of the United States.
