MR. TRAIN ON THE DOWNFALL OF ENGLAND. (From the Australian awl New Zealand Gazelle,

August 9.)

Mr Tiain, a citizen of the Poderal States of America, who is well hnt not very favorably dnown in connection with a plan fur sti'ect railways, has recently, on the failure of his project, betaken himself to politics, and with the view, we , suppose, of conciliatiii; support and sympathy towards the Federal cause, has been lecturing the " Brotherhood of St Patrick" in Somer's-town "On the downfall of England." After some very violent, denunciations of England, her institutions and her statesmen, which seem to luuo been entluiiiasticaUy received by the Irish w!io chiefly inhabit this subuib, he proceeds to calumniate the feelings of the colonies towards the motheicountry in a tone and manner which it is an ijisult to their well known loyalty and common sense even In protest against. We qao.o from the London Jmcucnn, .a Federal organ published in this metropolis — find, wo believe, the property of Mr Train liim^clf, — the following portion, of his violent fiinda, which is ccitainly calculated t'j excite feelings of contempt rather than of sympathy for the Federal cause :—: —

Rude Javanese.— The same day Mr Hodofton took me, Eva, and Sarah on shore in one of the Simp soil's lio it«. Il was very foolish of us. perhaps, hut we were all desirous of seeing" the people aiid shops. Unfortunately it was a gr«\ac feslival, and many thousands wore in the streets. I believe I was the first laly who hid been seen in the town, v^igri-aki), — certainly Eva was the first, child,— so the curiosity was eKcoijsive, and eventually very distros-iiii^. My husband would not turn baelc.it first, thinking the crowd would soon sepatsite, but it wns quite the reveise. We got so far that we really d\l not know what to do, and tried to get into a shop, as I was almost, frightened to death, to escape from the multitude of our admirers : but this, h.rl no cit'eefc. The proprietor, instead of receiving us ho.-i-iitar-'y, was even brutal, making hideous p-iimices, u-*owin-,' pa'e with fury, nor would he nllow us to retn.iin a liiiuuto or view anything in his- shop. So we were obliged to make the be-t of it ; and as it wa=; no use beiiv angry with 5,000 per.sona all ■•■round us, we di> tormmed on going back to the-boaf ,is soon ns possible. On the way poor Eva bocan crylin : but th<> brutes only laughed the more, and touclmd li u r f-ook and hut, trjhia; to look at hoi* liair iin.l net, whi'e another man w.is running h\ inj s'de lif'tiu/: my gown and flounces in order to take portrait* of thum.' 110 nn by mysklc for several hundred 3 .ink, making hideous skrlches of us, until *ye readied tlu; landing place, when to our cjreat vexation, wo found the boat had left; but the cubtora-liijus, j oliieei-j behaved very well, invite 1 us to sit down within their railings, anil did their utmost to keep oil* th- mob.

A Prophecy.— A correspondent of the Si/dncy Arum, has exhumed a passaee fiom "Coleridge's Table Talk" which iv the light of the present ro.ids like a prophecy : — The following ob-iervntions made by the Into Samuel Taylor Coleridge, in ISI-I, lospectinir the Not them and Southern States of the. American Union, I extract from " Coleridge's Table Talk : " " Naturally one would have thought that there would have been greater sympathy between the Northern ami Nonh-Wcstern Stites of the American Union and England, than between England and the Southern State-i. Theie is ten times an mud' English blood and spirit in New England as in Virginia, tin* Carolina*, etc. Nevertheless, such lias been the force of the interests of romincrce, that now (1833) and for some yeius past the people of the North hate England with increaaimr bitterness, whilst annng those oF the South, who are Jacubins, the British connection has become popular. (Jan there ever be any thorough national fusion of the Northern and Southern States l I think not. Iv fact, the Union will be shaken almost to a dislocation whenever a very serious question between the states ari-e. The Ameiiean Union has uo centre, and it is impossible now to make one. . . .- I look upon the States as splendid masses to bo used", byand-by, in the composition of two or three great Governments."

Fuom Barciat Pound.— By the aarival of the schooner Meg Merrilies we learn that the ship Annie Kimball is ldaJina* lumber at Alberni Mills, for Australia, and the bark Granger spars for England. Captain Pamphlet, of the Meg llerriUes, on Monday last, while stepping from his vessel to a small boat at its side, fell overnoard, and a purse containing 500 do'lais in irolil, which was in his hand, wns lo=»fc. A diver was uirible to find the purse on the bottom, and a dredgo will bo. calLd into ranii.siiion. The Barclay Sound Copper Company's lend his «iven out. The copper vein lately discovered near Stamp's Mills is prouuounced to be very valuable. Strong indications of silver abound in the same locality.— British Colonist, Vaucouver, August 9.
