Tur News rrom Enevanp.—Our accounts from England by the Hibernia steamer are rather inter- esting than otherwise,particularly the discussion now going on relative toa new commercial treaty with this country, The following letter, from our private correspondent, is interesting:— (Correspondence of the Herald.] Lonvon, April 18, 1843. London, that is, the “West End,” the very head, and front of the vast metropolis, has fallen into syn- Cope, or gone out of town. The far famed season of London is, you know, divided into two very dis tinct epochs, before Easter and after Zaster; the former we have just gone through, and is distin- guished chiefly for certain premonitory symptoms of business and pleasure that are left to be fully deve- loped in the more stately and important period we are now arriving at. The “little season,” if [ may callit so, of this year has assumed to itself a great deal more consequence than of Tight or preceden; belongs to it, or that itever had before. Certain in- fluential events have contributed to this, and we shall proceed to treat of them cursorily in due order. Parliamentary business has been important and ex- citing—the opera has flared up in a mos: unusual and brilliant manner—the weather, too, has been singularly fine; andthe result is that the “West End” nd Surats remain as have amounted to April 19.—The Cotton ket feature since Friday la: very large, and the market had a tendency to droop, more especially as regards the middling and lower class. es of American, which must be quoted 4d per Ib lower than they were previous to the arrival ofthe Great West- ern.

Our ‘an- cient vanity, that has undergone some hard humi- liation of late years, will begin under such fine de pera puffing to swell up to its old proportions ; already I am inclined to think again that the thymester was not far wrong, and that “ We are, as we ourselves have voted, The most enlightened nation ‘neath the sun.” It is to be deeply regretted, though, that Lord Brougham should have so far forgotten his own dignity, and the just deference due a person hold- ing General Cass’s late position, asto have vented with such bitter malignity the coarse and un. seemly abuse that distinguishes the recent and unfair attack of this, queralous peer. The utter impossibility of Gen. Cass ever making defence against this rude assault should have restrained the malicious ardor of this rampant orator—but let the worthy General and his numerous friends be con- soled; for the only eflect it produced here was dissa- tisfaction and strong censure; many were amused, he sales since our previous report have prov- out 1000 hhds. have met with purchasers, peculation.)

Lord Brougham is, unquestionably, the intellectual giant of his age 3 in all things, law, literature and learning, he is, as Domine Sampson would say, prodigious—and yet no one here speaks of him with respect ; and his in- fluence, legislatiye or personal, would not procure the reprieve of a condemned tom cat frorn instant drowning. Why is this? Let such conduct as his towards General Cass, at once so undignified and, unjust, be the plain answer—the simplest explana- tion. Every true American must rejoice in the entire ex- culpation of our great statesman, Webste-,, from the injurious accusatsens of diplomatic fre‘ud that were brought forward with so much cir~ umstantial de- tail, cs to be very generaliy credited.

Perhaps the demand is somewhat more general it wasa fortnight ago.

Rocupace Fiaswen Manket.—There had been scarce- ly any change in the market today from that of the pre- ceding Monday. About the same quantity of business been transacted, at prices nearly thesame. Work be- Eins to be more searce.and some few mills are running short time. Unemployed weavers and workmen are on the increase. In the wool market there is no change to report, prices stationary, and demand limited, Lreps.—The demand of the last tew weeks has ver: derably reduced the stocks of fine and middle quale of goods in the Cloth Halls, althongh there was not inthe Prime Minis’ er of England to stand boldly up in his place, ad in the Nice of the House of Commons and of ali England, openly and fearlessly to denounce t ,ese degrading suspiciene of Mr. Webster's ho gor, pronouncing at the same time an shoe tag &8 eloquent, as time has proved it was de- served. . Late wews from Austria makes favorable men- tion of ¢ ur distinguished representative there, Mr. Jenifer —his official conduct is highly praised, and rumo’. states he is making great progress in a com- merr -ial treaty that will lead to most advantageous results. His social virtues that have made him so 8’-nerally popular at home, have lost none of their ‘vivacity or warmth. by being transplanted to a fo- j reiga soil, uncongenial as the arid one of Germany may be. Ineonfirmation ofthis we may mention a brilliant bail he gave on the birthnight of Wash- ington, under the auspices of the Princess Metter- nich. Uhis is the first instance of such a /éle on this hallowed day ever known in Vienna, and is not more novel than patriotic. It does infinite honor to Mr. Jenifer, and is a gratifying proof that amidst the powsp of the Imperial Court of Austria, he has not grown insensible to the great events and stirriug re- collections of his native land. . I would like to entertain you with a little gossip about the opera that has commenced its course this year with unwonted brilliancy. The high rank of the artists that have appeared so prematurely, the attractive materinl produced, and the marvellous skill and vigor ot Mr. Lumley, the gentleman direc- tor, have equally contributed to this—of all which Ishallepeak more fully in my next. I will only add, en passant, chs ci-devant favorite, Fanny Els- sler, having settled her difficulties, so recklessly in- curred, has been dancing here with considerable success. She has had to contend witha young and beautiful rival, Mile. Dumilatre, from Pat 8, but ti quite so much done in these articles this week as for the previous few weeks, There has also been less doing in more particularly in lew qualities, the stocks of which article are getting rather heavy, end prices a shade lower. Business has not been quite so brisk in the warehouses we learn there is a little improvement in goods for shipping, some good parcela having been sold for the American market.

We depre- cate this very much, but we suppose the Doctor must 80, as it is not superior ability to discharge the du- ties of an office, but political considerations, which are the {qualifications in the eyes of the party.— But we must say that if Dr. Griscom be guillotined, we will lose the most competent City Inspector we have had for many years. He hasreduced the whole business of his important office to a great degree of system and efficiency, and has opened up communi- cations with the police authorities of London and Paris, which were calculated to lead to the most important and serviceable resultsin his branch of the police of this city. Dr. Griscom is a man of great talent, and afforded the most satisfactory evidence in his last report of his competency to introduce many important re- forms, and contribute largely to the improvement of the sanitary condition of the city. His sugges- tions for the removal and abatement of many nui- sances—the [better regulation of interments—the melioration of the condition of the poorer classes, and many other important subjects, were highly ju- dicious and should be carried out. ANOTHER FIRE caUSED BY SpaRxs From Loco- Motive or THE L. I. RatLroap.—A destructive fire broke out on Monday morning last in the town of Islet, on Nicholas Patent, which destroyed wood to to the value of $40,000 to $50,000, burning over a space full seven miles equare. There were from 1500 to 2000 cords of wood ready for market,{burnt, belonging to the inhabitants, which falls heavily on them at this time, it being their main dependence to meet the payments on their farms, the inhabi- tants of that section depending entirely for subsis- tence on the fisheries of the coast. There should be some law passed either to make the Railroad Company responsible for these occurrences, or to compel them to use the necessary means to pre- vent them. The burning of the above fire was the light seen from the Souad boats a few days since, that caused so much astonishment. Bisnor Hucuss anp THE Cuurcn or Sr. Louis oF BurFaLo.—A correspondent, who prefesses to know, states, in nearly three pages, that the difficulty be- tween the Bishop and the Trustees of the church of St. Louis, has not been settled, and the matter re- mains in statu quo ante bellum.

ONE OF THE HEIRS OF “PAUL JONES.” The subscription paper is still open, and is filling up. Come forward. Forgign News—Sreamer NarraGansett.—We are not only indebted to Harnden & Co., but to Captain Woolsey of the splendid steamer Narragan- sett, forthe early receipt of our foreign files yester- day morning. We thank him, and must here men- tion that both Capt. Woolsey and Harnden & Co. have become celebrated for the promptness with which they do business. They never fail, and hav- ing the confidence of the public, they must succeed. Portrair or General Scort.—A magnificent full length likeness of Gen. Winfield Scett has just been published, and is for sale at 13 Platt street. It is drawn on stone by Gibert, a Parisian artist, and printed in colors by P. Hoas, of Washington. Itis an elegant affair. A Srrixe.—The sailors have (struck for higher wages. They get $13, but they demand $15. The wages seamen get in the navy by the late law of Congress, has induced many to ship, which, toge- ther with the activity of our merchant vessels has created ascarcity, which is taken advantage of. Concerts Last Eventne,—Signor Nagel gaye his fareweil concert last evening at the Apollo, to an im- mense number of ladies and gentlemen, not a few of whom, including many ladies, could find no seats, and were obliged to stand during the whole of the concert. Signor Nagel quite surpassed himself, and his violin discoursed most wondrous music. It con- verser| in as many different strains as the learned blacksmith can in different languages. His intro- duction, at the close of the “ Air from Anna Bole- na,” of the tune of “Old Rosin the Bow,” with chrious variations, excited enthusiastic applause. Mr. Dempster, Mrs. Loder, and Mr. Timm, were received with equal applause. Mar. Brappury’s FestivaL.—This came of at the Tabernacle. We were astonished to see the multi- tude present. There could not have been less than two or three thousand of the audience ; and asto the number of the little girls and boys, who were the performers, there were at the very Jeast calculation alittle million of them, which no man could num- ber. I[t was, altogether, one of the most unique, curious, and remarkable performuncers ever wit- nessed. If Mr. Bradbury should ever give anothe (why is this called his last?) we advise the public to go and see and hear for themaelves. iH The steamboat Providence broke down] on Thursday morning, when within three milea of New- port. The walking beam broke, the head of the cylinder waa ripped off, and the piston-rod bent — The lolas was immediately despatched, and towed the Providence into Newport. It will cost several thousand dollars to repair the damages. Marearer Bisnor anv THE Isragiires.—Marga- ret and the Israelites hold a meeting next Sunday afternoon and evening, at half past seven, at the corner of Clinton and Grand streets. Their new pamphlet, a synopsis of their creed, will be offered for sale at the above named meeting. Vinainia Exgcrion.—The democrats have tarried the Congressional, State Senatorial and Delegate tickets. On the latter the whigs gained five mem- bers on the previous election. Tue Women or Enatann.—D. Appleton & Co. follow with Mrs. Ellis’ Works in rapid succession. This morning they publish The Women of En- gland, their social duties and domestic habits. Husbands, especially young husbands, should buy it for their wives, fathers for their daughters, brothers for their sisters. No work has been so popular, and no work will so long continue to be. It was this book which established the reputation of Mrs. Ellis as one of the most agreeable and instructive writers of her time. Nortuern News.—Pomeroy & Co. came in ahead of the mail early yesterday morning. This line always beais the mail. More Tuanxs.—We thank the Merchants’ Ex- change in Boston for forwarding our European pack- ages. Fautine.—The Hudson river at Albany. Cuatuam Tueatre.—Mr. Goodenow, long and favorably known as one of the Chatham company, takes his first benefit this evening. The entertain- ments offered are unusually attractive, and when we consider Mr. G.’s indejatigable and persevering industry in his profession, we cannot but believe he will receive his due reward on this oce Mr. Marshall will appear again this evening, in the cha- racter of Marteau, inthe popular drama of “ The Carpenter of Rouen.” This gentleman, although yet open to criticism, promises to become an actor of Ro mean repute, Varova Baras.—If you want to get clear of a winter cold, or prevent a summer one, go to 26 Courtlandt street and get one, at a reduced prices City Intelligen Potice.—The urgent necessity of so re-organizing the Police system of our city, as to have a magis- trate on the bench night and day, has been con- tinually presented to the Common Council of this city, and we trust will soen be adopted. On Thursday evening two men were arrested on suspi- cion of committing a larceny, and lodged in the Watchhouse, where they were kept until morning, when it was made fully evident that not a jot or tittle of evidence could be brought against them. This is one of the many evils that have been made manifest by the stupid and illegal practice of committing men to the filthy cells of the lock-up watch-houses of our city on mere suspicion, with- out examination, and will continue to exist until a trate is placed on the bench at the lower office, to preside during the night as well as the day. The most innocent, un- offending citizen may be arrested through the pque .orfmalice of any person, or a watchman, and when erraigned betore the Captain of thewatch, if the complaint is adhered to, he mo power nor authority to do aught else than commit himto a cell, which probably may be oncursee by thieves, loatersand burglars. [t is time a change in this part of our police system was effected, and we trust the new Common Council will consider the subject and adoptsome measure calculated to produce the de- sired result as soon as they have disposed of the spoils of office. Atremrt To Porson.—A colored man has been sent home to this country by the United States Con- sul at Bal charged with attempting to poison Capt. Stanhope, of the brig Escalus. The exai nation will be had to-day, when full particulars will be obtained. Byrne, THE Buratar.—We understand that this man, who is now in the city prison, on several charges of forging the checks of Simeon Draper, j on the Manhattan Bank, for a large amount, is about to be released on bail, to be precured by the usual means of money advanced to cover the risk. Why has he not been tried? Whoever enters se- curity for this man will have the benefit of the publicity of his name, and the amount received, in all the papers of this‘city. Corongr’s Orricx.—The Coroner was called esterday to hold an inquest on the body of a maa ound dead in a bed, at the sailor boarding house of Francis Morgan, 81 Washington street. He was fouad the night previous in the street, nearby, in a helpless condition, and was taken into the house, and laid on abed, where he died during the night.— From papers found in his pockets it appeared that his name was Johnsoa, and from tools in his posses- sion, it is supposed he was a watchmaker by trade. In one of his pockets were found a number of cards having on them the name of “John Rucastle, aai- lor’s boarding house, 17 Front street.” His bod: will remain in the dead house until nine o’cloc! this morning, for the recognition of his friends. An inquest was held on the body of a woman named Sarah Paulding, a native of England, who had died at the Alms House from congestion of the brain. Also, on a nice little new born girl baby, found in a_sink in the rear of house 93 John street. Cause of death unknown. Common Council. Boanp or Atpgaaxn, Friday, May 6.—Tho Board met at € o'clock and adjourned to half past 7 in the evening. Williamsburgh Ferries.—By an agreement entered into yesterday between the representatives of the Grand and Houston street ferries to Williamsburgh, the report from the Board of Assistants was taken up an? concurred in.— ‘The agreement authorizes the construction of two ferry houses backing each other, and allows the Houston street ferry a privilege on the front of the upper pier tothe end in accordance withithe view of the Street Commissioner, who is authorized to carry the agreement into effect. Market Fees.—Alderman Jones, from the Committee rkets, presented a resulution allowing the clerks of the several markets a commission of five per cent for the collection of rents of butchers’ stalls under the recent or- dinance. Alderman Joss stated that since the adoption of this system of colléction of market rents the butchers had paid their rents daily, and the city had thus realized an income that for years past they had been unable to collect. ‘The resolution was finally adopted. Z Decreasing Watchmen’s Wages.—The Committee en Lamps and Gas reported in favor of a reorganization of the Lamp {and Watch Department, compelling the watchmen to act i“ lamplighters, and also reducing their pay to $1 r night.

The ground is said to belong to the estate of the Jate John Ma- son. A building 70 feet by 45 can be erected for about $7,- 0eu. A resolution to appoint a committee from each Board to investigate the subject, was adopted. Amputation of a Leg—Dr. James C.

Important from Montevideo—Siege of the City—In- terference of the French and English Admirals— Celebration of Washington’s Birth Day, §c. Tn my last I believe I told you Oribe was about 15 leagues from this place and had advanced at the rate of three leagues a day—he has now been in the vicinity about a fortnight. Every day there are skirmishes between the opposing armies, generally in favor of Oribe. The party in power here in the city shoot every week some eight or ten persons, whom they suppose to be disaffected. A great ma- ny people have fled to the men-of-war here for pro- tection, and mumbers have gone to the merchants’ ships. The Montevide: have built a pretty good wall about their city, and allthe great guns they could procure they have mounted there ; in conse- uence Oribe will not risk an assault, but has set own before the city for a complete siege. Rivera, the Montevidean General, has got himself in a nice dilemma—he took a great many precautions and succeeded in gettiug in the rear ot General Oribe, but he has found that he (Rivera) is inferior in force, and now he is obliged to keep atta distance without the prospect of being able to do any good, for he cannot force his way into the town. Already the consequence of the siege appears. Beef generally one cent a pound is now four and five, flour and other provisions in proportion. Nothing from the country can enter the City; 80 it is impossible the city can hold out a tort- night. The party in power in the city are greatly alarmed; but still declare their intention of defend- ing the city to the last, and have put in force a num- ber of the most arbitrary laws. The U. S. Consul (Mr. Hamilton) and family have gone on board the U. S. frigate Columbia for protection, as their house is situated at the extremity of the town, very near the wall. s ; \ I wrote you that Capt. Shubrick had hoisted his broad pennant on board the Columbia, all the fo- reign vessels of war here saluted it. It was a grand sight, on the Anniversary of Washington’s birth day, to see at 12 o’clock, the Yankee ensign at the foremast of every man of war in the harbor, all one after another, saluting the Columbia and the schr. Enterprise first. Crowds of people came down on the Mole to witnessthe novel sight. No ship hauled downthe American ensign until sundown. The English and French Adinirals here have made complete fools of themselves, They sent word to the Buenos Ayrian Admiral (Brown,) who is here with a small squadron, waiting an opportuni- ty to co-operate with Oribe, that if he fired a shot into the town,or if he did not get under weigh with- in twelve hours, and proceed up the river, they would sink hie, and to intimidate him,moved three of their heaviest vessels close to him. Brown sent back an answer that he would not move} an inch, and that he would fire on the city whenever he pleased, and as for sinking him he was ready at any moment. He immediately beat to quarters, cast loose his guns, and got everything ready for action. The English and French Admirals, finding they could not frighten Brown, left him to do as he plea- sed. The English and French have landed all their marines to protect the lives and property of their countrymen The number of French residents here are very numerous, and they have armed them- selves tor their own protection. The Montevidean Minister protested against this, andsaid that they should give up their arms—the French Consul re- plied that they could not, as it was necessary for the protection of the lives of themselves and fami- lies. It is said the French male residents who have and are capable of bearing arma number five or six thousand. Bahia. {Correspondence of the Herald.} Baus, March 30, 1843. Mr. J.G. Bennerr— Dear Sir:— The brig Justina, Capt. P. W. Shepherd, sails for New York to-day, having on board John Chris- tian, late steward of brig “‘Escalus,” of this port, accused offan attempt to poison Capt. Philip R. Stanhope, of said brig, bound to the coast of Africa. 1t appears by the evidence that the prisoner did not wish to go to thefcoast in the brig, and had demand- ed his discharge, which Capt. Stanhope told him he could have, if he would procure a substitute.— The brig had been undergoing some repairs, and on the day in question the crew had been employed hanging the rudder; the Captain had a sore throat, and ordered a little molasses and butter to be stewed, which was done by the cook, the steward providing the materials. After the medicine was rought to the Captain he took a couple of spoon- fuls, and set the cup on the transom. About noon—the Captain being then in the cabin— tie steward came down and again demanded his dis- charge. The Captain, as before, toldhim he should have it, provided he got some one to go in his place; otherwise he could not ge. The steward left the ca- bin swearing he would have revenge ; then went to the galley and complained to the cook—tellingjhim that if the Captain took him to the coast one of them should not come back alive. About 2 o’clock, hav- ing got the rudder hung, the Captain went into the cabin prior to going ashore, and taking up the medi- cine, took two spoonfuls, and found it had a very nauseous taste—went on deck with it and calling the steward, asked what was init. The steward said, nothing, sir; but every one else could taste the bit- terness. On stirring it, a shining red stuff could be seen in the mixture, and the Captain immediately went ashore, but was taken sick and vomited freely before he got ashore. It wasanalyzed by a chemist and feund to contain a large portion of red precipi- tate. Thus much for the evidence. The mate and cook are also sent home by the Consul as witnesse: Business is very dullin Bahia. Flour sellin, 16)/000 per barrel, for Richmond ; 141|500 for Balti- more.

Lsend youa letter sheet price current of 14th March, from Rio. We had a vi exciting time of it yesterday. An English brig laden with coal, having called in to as- certain the state of the market, was about to pro- ceed to Rio. After your clearance in the Brazils, there is a guardship to examine you after you are under weigh, to examine your papers, crew, &c. The Captain of the brig undertook to go out without the visit from the guardship. He was fired at, and brought too. The next morning he was called on, and was required to pay $2 for the shot. This he refused to do, and being under weigh, he proceeded to go tosea. This was not so easy though, as he had but little wind and a strong flood tide. They blazed away at him from the guardship aad the fort, firing some twenty shots, and then sent a gun boat after him and brought him back. In bringing her to, the Brazilians having ch they went too near an old hulk that liesthere dismantted,and her anchor caught the brigs topmast backstays, bringing the foretopmast down by the run. They then anchor- ed her, and took the Captain asa prisoner on board the guardship. He was dismissed the next morning by the influence of his consignee; but will have to pay all damages. The expenses, it is supposed, will amount to above $500, a pretty sum to pay for obsti- nacy. Yours, very respectfully.

This is now accounted for in the following manner After murdering the ns down stairs, and rifling rooms there, the ra: proceeded to the sleeping room ofthe maid servant.

They concluded at once that the woman had ascertained whi id had fled through other door to gi rm, and they immediately betook themselves to flight. Asa matter of fact, the maid had left her room in a hurry, without making it up, early on Sunday, to pay a visit In the neighborhood, and had not yet revorned.. Sunday night hes © rainy, and the roads, therefore, on Monday night, that ofthe murder, were very wet, ‘This seems, providentiaily almost, to have turnished a clue to the murder—for on strictly examining the premi- sea around Mr. Parke’s house, it was found thet a wagon had been driven from there through aby road. Thetrack was followed, an accurate measure being taken, along the route, of the tire, and of its indentations, until it led to the house of one Charles Coleman, on whose premises a wa- gon was found corresponding entirely in width of tire and other marks. Coleman (who has been in New Jersey State prison for counterfeiting) wes immediately arrested, as was another man, who on Monday had been seen much with him, fae Joseph Auble, a sort of race course loafer and gam- er. The authorities were also on the track of the third man, (an Englishman, with green spectacles,) who had heen in the neighborhood for some days, and had also been seen in company with the other two. The first named parties are natives of New Jersey, and residents of the neighborhood where the awful crime war committed. The third man is an Englishman. We do not hear that any farther developement had been made.

The committee reported in favor of paying Henry W.Mer. ritt $1061.48. His whole bill amounted to $1911.43. Mr. Merritt had employed two counsel at $750 each. Mr. Woodhull was opposed to paying but one counsel ; $750 were therefore deducted from the whole amount. His Honor the Mayor, said he presumed the learned Su- ble to produce at once his rvisors, acting as a legisla- and making a gratuity. For his own part, the Mayor said he knew of no such authority. Board has power only to audit and settle aecounts “chargeable to tho county ” No matter how equitable the claim may be, we have not the power. Every man who may be prosecuted, and whomay be lucky enough to get an acquittal, will have just as good a right to come to this Board for the pay- ment of his expenses. If this Board should refuse to pay the bill, the only remedy is ina mandamus; but itis not to be supposed fora moment thet any court would issuea mandamus to compel us topay the billsof Henry W. Mer- ritt. The papers were then referred back to the Criminal Court and Police Committee, without power ‘The next bill was to pay Jacob Hays $160; which was the sum recovered ogainst him by David Gould, Eq., for an assault and battery on him while in court. Mr. Hays now hit county to pay the bill, Referred. tion was here introduced, to abo! ries to the present collectors of taxes, leaving it to the future Board of Supervisora to pay the future ere whatever they please. This resolution was lopted. A resolution to pay D. D. Williamson, the mt comptroller, $3,909 56 for extra services of clerk hire and commission of one half per cent for receiving and paying out the taxes of the year 1942. The clerk hire amounts to $775 73, and the balance is claimed for the other service. The Mayor opposed the apprepriation, on the ground that the Boardof Supervisors had no power to make it. Their duties were alone to audit and pass upon bills ren. dered, and any person having claims could recover them by awrit of mandamus, if this board refused illegally to pay them. ‘Riaermen Davies and Unpexwoop advocated the pay ment of the bill. After considerable debate the resolution was laid on the table forthe present, and the Board then adjourned to this (Saturday af ternoon) at 8 o'clock.
