 THE SOCIAL SYSTEM.

 The last foreign papers give accounts of the ex- tension, in portions of Germany, ot the principles l of Charles Fourier. The formation of Societies was rapidly progressing. Very determined advo- l cates were promulgating the doctrines, and more attention had been gained than at any previous pc. riod. They contend for community of interests and brotherhood of hospitality and charity Property is to be held in common Castes, classes, and degrees, they say must be done away with.- and that the "generality of enjoyment" must be the great object sought. Indeed, their views ap- pear to be much more dreamy than do those who advocate in this country, the social principies- But, correspondence of similar efforts, not only in Germany, France, and the United States, but m other Nations also is certainly among the remark able movements of the age. The result of the commercial vicissitudes which have been felt 30 widely, has unquestionably had the effect to turn many minds, to what they regard os systems of so. cial reform and the agitation of the doctrines laid down in the writings of Cabet and Fourier, at the present time, is undoubtedly traceable to this aS the principal cause.

 THE BARrNes.-In the year l7s6, Wm. Bing. ham, of Philadelphia, was senator in Congress, and through his influence with General Washing. ton, obtained for his son.in.law, Mr. Alexander Burins, the agency of the United states Govern ment in it's nionied transactions with England, or more properly speaking, MT. Bingham induced the Government to change their general banking ec. counts from Messrs. Willins.esst Amsterdam es.x: flo the Earrings in London, and from that period till within A few years, the house of Barring. x Co., through all their changes in partnership have transacted the business, public and private, o tne United States, with an immense amount ot mercan' tile business generally for American citizens. % Aa. ded to this Through the same infiuence) to that house was given the account of the first bank of inc United States, which expired in 1sll. When inc new bank of the United States was chartered in 1sls, they received the appointment Of agent oi the Bank for England, and for Europe generahy- thus transactng the monied business oI the oahk' erEment. and. we may add, of the mercantile com. munity. for period of more than forty years past realizing immense commissions and profits, and at all times holding large balances ot the banks m their hands, giving them the appearance II not the reality of controlling a considerable part oi tne floating capital of the whole United States: reasonable to suppose that these marks of conn dence gave 10 the partners of the house great nu- ence in the British Empire, and also on the Cont. nent. The elder member of the firm. Mr. Francis Earring. was made baronet; this title descended to his eldest son, Thomas Barring swho, without De'

 ing partner in the house, received Wtn 'ne .n. .,te from Sir Francis the immensc hereditary estates gained by the business operations cOfded to that Rouse by the American people. The two sons oi Sir Thomas Barring, Thomas Candidate for the l City) and John, are now partners cI the mousse while the second son of old Sir Francis !Aiexan' der,) who acted senior partner oi the house Iol more than thirty years, who married Miss blng' ham of Philadelphia and retired from the house iI Is3s with a fortune of two millions, is now Lord | Ashburton.
