The commercial community in England are now fully alive to the bearings of all the questions at issue —and among the leading features in producing the wesent peaceable aspect, we are happy in noticing that steam navigation is universally allowed to have been mainly instrumental. The North American steamers and their unvaried pérform ure NOW the subject of observation throfighout Europe, and it not be questioned but that their est ment is political and com. country, and it is the equally bounden duty of both to encourage the fulld evelope- now | feature adil the mercial relations of th meat of sucha inighty enterprise, as it is the interest of every one to promote its fullest and most com- plete suecess. All trifling censiderations of loea! prejudices must be forgotton in considering such a question, and let us not seek to mar the results of one of the greatest achievements of modern times, by giving way to any selfish feelings, but rather let us cheerfully unite in readering a full measure of justice to an undertaking fraught with such incon- ceivable blessings. Although a vast deal has already been accomplish- ed in bringing the publie to acorrect understanding of the interests involved, and of the changes eces- sarily occuring through Atlantic steaming, still there are many prejudices yet to be overcome, and many absurd notions yet to be dispelled. of Since the time first establishment its full success has ina pat degree been retarded, in consequence of the cloud which has so long hovered around the political atmosphere.

We arrived here yesterday morning at eleven o’cloek, from Saratoga, Lake George, Ticonderoga, Lake Champlain, St. Johns and La Prairie. ‘The route is the most delightful I have travelled. We ton our way all kinds of beauty, wildnéss anc very. On Tuesday morning we lef the United States Hotel at Saratoga, in one of Reed \& [ilis’ line of stages, ranning to Glenn’s Falls anc Lake George. This line is formed of splendid coaches, and fine horses—accommodations to the ravelling public of the highest character. We started at three o’clock in the afternoon from ~aratoga, and reaehed Caldwell at sun down. The road was extremely good. There had been several St grateful showers on the day before, and the dust was as low and quiet as taney stocks in Wall street, or purity and patriotism in Washington. We were also favored, expressly to order, with a very fine thunder storm, and a few very capital peals of thun- der and flashes of lightning. These gave interes! and variety to the somewhat sombre crossed Glenn’s F ene. We lls in a burst of evening light, coming from between two dark clouds, and no one could view that interesting bunch of cataracts in miniature to more advantage. The road to Lake George from this place is truly utiful. It passes along some of the ravines, or sleepy hollows,” between the hills that separate the waters of the Hudson and St. Lawrence. No- thing can be imagined more beautiful than to see the last rays of the evening sun falling over the fairy-looking woods that cover those hill tops. The deep green of the foliage seemed to have caught fa sil appearance. The approach to Lake George is very beautiful. It was altogether fresh and new to we having,never beenjin that part of the earth before. The “little fellow” shouted as loud as he could, as soon as he espied the clear, blue and green water, glancing in the descending sua, from the brow of the rising ground that forms the ridge of separation between the north and the south. We stopped at Caldwell’s Lake House for the night, and it is without exception, one of the clean- est and finest houses that I ever entered. Every pieee of furniture isas pure and fresh, as if new. It is kept in first rate style, and is a most delicious spot to linger infor a couple of days. Here is the head of Lake George, surrounded with the most ro_ mantic hills, covered to the top with trees, and sending forth a fragrance truly refreshing. During the full moon th arance of the Lake, with the small steamer laying at the shore, and the calm pel- lucid waters shining like silver beneath, cannot be surpassed in the wide world. Soon after our arri- val, one of the big guns was fired off from the deck of the steamer, and the report was reverberated from the hills for several seconds, and seemed like a long peal of thunder losing itself gradually in the distance. In the morning, we rose early, probably at five o’cleck—and in going out and taking a tum in the village, the fragrance from the mountain woods apr came down so thick and refreshing, that one would fancy it could be cut into thin slices and taken for breakfast. At half past six, we satdown to a most »xcellent breakfast, rendered the more delicious from the balmy atmosphere, the clean house—the tidy and attentive servants, and the tout ensemble of this most admirably conducted establishment. Here you have fresh trout in every possible mode of cookery. On taking our leave of the Lake House, we then embarked at seven o'clock on board the steamer Wm. Caldwell, a beautiful little boat, kept as clean and bright as the hotel. © The morning was truly de- licious—a fine cool breeze—a bright sun—a few white clouds to mod e his brighter beams. aptain Larrabe commands the boat—a very quiet, manly, intelligent nan. Inher cabin, he had ‘new chart of the Lake constructed by himself on 1 large scale, and the principal islands, headlands und me | named and marked out. One of hi we passed, not being as yet christened, culiar form in rising out of the water very like the dome of the Capitol at Washington. The name was accordingly marked down. The voyage down the Lake is truly delightful at this season of the year. The clear water, the translucent wave, the picturesque islands, the wild mountains—the steep rocks—the rugged ravines, every variety of scenery passed by, give the traveller a perpetual feast in the beauties of nature, if he has asoul capable of en- joying such seenery, I do not believe there is any country in Europe that can surpass—perchance hard- equal the beauty and picturesqueness of Lake George. Many of the islandsare deliciotslittle spots, chosen places for pic-me and fishing parties. While we passed down, we qgaied a fishing party from Al- fe of these islands. There was the tent—their cooking apparatus—their little ‘lag flopping in the wind on the top of a pole—their boat drawn ap on the beach, and they themselves busily engaged in preparing their breakfast of fine, fat, fresh trout, caught by themselves from the very waters in which they were washed and cooked. | could spenda month about Lake George and its shores, and every day would be as delightful as the preceding About 10 o’clock we reached the landing at the vorder end of the Lake, and took the stage for Ti- conderoga on Lake Champlain. Here the road cresses and recrosses the stream that runs out of Lake George into Lake Champlain. We stopped on our way, and took a view of the falls formed by this stream. In about an hour we reached the old fort of Ticonderoga, where we dismounted, and took a view of the ruins—the broken walls, the de- caying arch—and the oid gloomy caverns that are now open to the light of day. At one o'clock, w arrived at the Pavillion,a very fine hotel on th banks ef Lake Champlain, where the Whitehal steamers stop take up passengers for Canada and the lower end of the Lake. At this place there i a ite grove onthe shore,called the “Elssler Grove. But I mast stopshort—the mail is closing. Dran ~The Rev. James March, D. D. died at Burlington, Vermont, on the 3d. instant.

F. Bradley, on the 21st June. The prison er boarded at the house of Mrs. Baxter, corner of the Bowery and Walker street, in company with complainant and the eve jous to the time the money was missed Bradley counted it in presence of prisoner and re- p inhistrunk. Scott infsrmed complainant the day p us that he had no money, and after the trunk had been rifled, Bradley hearing ‘money rattle in prisoners pocket wentto Mrs. Baxter and told her that he suspected Scott had stolen his money from this circumstance, as he had previously stated he was short of funds. She repli- ed that it could not be so, as he had just paid her for a weeks’ board, and on showing the money which was in half dollars, Bradley immediately identified one of th: pieces as having been in his trunk, from the fact that » piece had been cut from it. A skeleton key that would unlock the trunk of Bradley was found in an out house in the yard, and asmall three cornered file was also found in tho room of Scott, stuck in the ceiling. When the pri- soner was arrested about $16 in specie was found upon him. Bradley stated in his examination that he come to this city for the purpose of ing to London, to recover ether} left him and his father yy adeceased relative in nglan The defence conducted by Wm. M. Price and J. M. Bates, Esqs., presented a letter purporting to have been written by J. L. Hawkins, of Connelsville, Pa., on the 4th of August, 1841, and addressed to Josiah Steen, of Wash- ington, D. C., recommending Wm. Scott as a portrait pain- ter of considerable talent. Henry Peters,Gray, portrait painter of this city, was called to the stand on the part of the prosecution aid stated that the prisoner applied to him for assistance when he, through the aid of the Artists Ar- sociation, procured the sum of $25, which he guve him and advised him to ge back to Connels Pa. The prisoner was ably defended by Mr.Price in summing up, and the prosecution was equally sustained by Mr. Whiting in a short speech to the jury. The Court charged the jury. briefly ,and after an absence of about three quarters of an hour they returned a yer- dict of not guilty. Margaret McKinney, alias Fee, was tried on a charge of assault and battery, with intent to kill her male infant, on the night of the 20th of January Iast. It was proved by prosecution, i! the affidavit of William Calhoun, and the testimony of Thomas O'Hare, that on the above named evening about 6 o'clock, they saw prisoner proceeding towards the foot of 2ist street, witha child in her arms, and that when she reached the wkarfshe looked atte see ifany one was in sight, and then threw the bundle she had in her arms overboard. Calhoun immediately ran towards the water, and on recovering the bundle it was found to contain afine male infant, whose immersion in the cold water had caused it to scream lustily. O’Hare stopped prisoner, while she was in the act of running away, but she denied all knowledge of the transaction. The defence, conducted by Messrs. Shaler and Price, asked the reading of the prisoner's examination before the police, in which she admitted the truth of the allegations made against her, but attributed the act to partial in- sanity exi ig the time, produced by the abandonment of her husband. Joxarnan Lovesoy, dentist, with whom prisoner had lived as a servant on the Ist of January, at the time the child was born, testified that after the birth of the child e behaved very stubborn ond refused to answer ques- tions put to her.” She left his house on the 3d of the same mouth and resided with Catharine Cahart, who also sta- ted that she appeared ont of her mind and acted very strage towards her child, Jous J.

She re- mained so formany weeks afterwards, but finally recover- ed, and at present Wasone of the neatest and best behaved persons confined in the cells, Wm, M. Price, Esq. in addressing the Court, previous to the delivering of the charge tothe jury by the Recorder, contended that as partial insanity had been proved ina most satisfactory manner, at the time the crime was com- he intent, 80 necessary in the eye of the law to econviction, was shown not to exist, and therefore a verdict of acquittal was the only one the jury could ren- der. The Court charged that thefevidences of insanity on the part of prisoner, as produced In court, were very slight, and the jury, after aa absence of five minutes returned « verdict of guilty, ttt recommended her strongly to the mercy of the court. The courtthen sentenced her to two years imprison- ment in the State prison, it being the lowest term in their power, and then adjourned to Friday morning at eleven o'clock. of the female prison committed, stated 1.

City Intelligence. ‘Tur Mayon’s Vero.—Many strange notions exist as to the power of the veto of the Mayor of our city upon the passage of ordinances or resolutions by the Common Coun, cil. After an ordinance or resolution has passed both branchos of the Common Council it must be presented to the Mayor for his signature, and unless returned by him in ten days it becomes a law without his aid. Ifhe refuser to sign and interposes his veto, it must be read in each board, entered upon the minutes and published in the cor- poration papers. After the expiration of ten days, the same question can be reconsidered, and if passed by ama Jovity of votes becomes a law notwithstanding his veto. It will thus be seen that his veto power is inoperative against a majority, Jewrireny Reeovenep.—About 18 months since Messrs. Baldwin & Co., jewellers, of Newark, N.

Commo- dore Wilkinson furnished the editor of the Pensacolr Gazette with several interesting documents, lately issued by the Mexican Government. They are all aimed against exes, and against the United States for allowing so much aid as has been given to Texas by Americancitizens within the United States. ‘The first paper is a circular to Mexican diplomatic an¢ consular agents in Europe and America. It states the con- stant solicitude and recent preparations of the Mexicat government for the “re-conquest of the Department o: ‘Texas "—complains that “the g vernment and subord nate and local authorities” of the United States have “tolerated tranquilly,contentedly and impassively,the nu- merous public meetings which are held, the armaments and other aids of war that her citizens send constantly to Texas,” and announces that Santa Anna has “ protested formally and repeatedly against such an open violation of the principles of the laws of nations, and of the treaties of friendship which have been form: circular are circulars addressed to theD’ of England, France, 8} , Prussia, and the United States and a special note ressed to the Honourable Daniel Webster, Secretary of State of the United States —beth dated on the Bist of May. These papers are direct- ed to be published as fully as Possible, by the Mexican agents throughout Europe and America. ‘The circular addressed to Foreign ministers is full of reproaches against the United States, for having suffered, in the presence of its authorities, the recruiting and arm- ing of volunteers, and furnishing of munitions of war against Mexico and on behalf of Texas. as the formal and repeated protests tof Mexico against these breaches of the law of ‘ons, and the faith of treaties—and recites that these explanations are made to the end that the other governments may be apprised of such acts, and know that Mexico, without desiring to disturb the relations which subsist with the United States, well knows how it may be proper to manifest and cause to be appreciated the justice which accompanies and whieh she considers based upon the law of nations—making use of all t and dignity imperatively demands.” , T macks of war.

There has been nothing left undone in order to make this the crack company of New York, We understand from several sources that the history of this company, although short, has been brilliant; they have organized and equipped themselves entirely, and have even equipped their band in, white coats and new caps in the short cite of seven months, besides carrying away to their camp the above number of men, which we be- lieve is larger than any com ris taken from your city for several years. e heard a prominent military gentleman remark that he has seen several military regiments in this country and Europe, but never saw a company equal this. “We ourselyes ob- served that the general appearance of the men and officers were very good. fits .
