As well might we expect Vesuvins to behave itself with propriety, a8 Ireland to be quiet fora twelve-month, It must al- ways miaintain its voleanic reputation. Indeed, we sre not sure thatseme terrible catastrophe would not visit the British empire, if that troubleeome island, which has been for so long a period serving as a sort of natural “issue” in the body politic, should all at nce harging its continued stream of poli- teal agitation. The fact is, however, that the repeal agitation is becoming somewhat serious —serious enough, at all to attract the marked attention of the gov. eroment of England. Ali over the South and West i Ireland the people are meeting in huadreds of ands, and are addressed by O’Connell and his numerous tail in speeches of the most violent and inflammatory character. The Catholic clergy have » come openly into the field, and are wielding all tier ecclesiastical influence in favor of the revolu- ry movement. In the early part of last month il meeting was held at Muliingar, which was cease tion Lrep a tended by upwards of 120,000 persons. After the meeting, about 400 sat down toa public dinner, at which « C »lie Bishop presided, and a great num- ber ef the Clergy werelamongst the guests. Some eople were under the impression thai several of the Bishops disapproved of the agitation, but this was diseovered to be quite an erroneous idea on this oc- n, for on the health of one of the Bishops pre (Dr. Higgine) being proposed, he suid— “I wieh to state that | have every reason to believe, I may od, that I know that every Catholic bishop in Ire- land, without an exception, is au ardent Repealer. (En- thusiastic cheers, which lasted for several minutes, and in which Mr. O'Connell heartily joined ) “Mr. O’Connect—Let Bobby Peel hear that. ed cheers) “His Lordship proceeded—I know that virtually you all have reason to believe that the bishops of Ireland Repealers, but 1 have now again formally to an. soe to you that they have all declared themselves as »,and that from shore to shore we are now all Re. pealers, eat cheering.)

(Hear, hear,” and cheers.) I for one defy all the ministers of England to put down the agita- tion in the diocese of Ardagh. (Mr. O'Connell, “Murrah now for therepeal.”) If they attempt, my friend, to rob us of the daylight, which is, I believe, common to all, and prevent us from essembling in the open fields, we will re- tire to our chapels, and we will suspend all other instruc. tion, in order to devote ell our time to teaching the people to be Repealers in spite of them. (Cheers) If they bee set our temples, and mix our people with spies, we will prepare our people for the circumstances; and if they bring us for that to the scaffold, in dying for the cause of our country, we will bequeath our wrongs to our succes- sors. (The entire assembly here rose aad continued cheeriug in the most enthusiastic manner for several mi- nutes.) Let them try that experiment if they will— (“Hear, hear,” and cheers.) They are too keen—they are determined to go on with their insidiousmess, to give useven fair play at dying for our country. (Renewed pealsof applause.) No, they would not doit; and, there- fore, 1 am justified in saying that the bisheps of Ireland and the people who co operate with them, despite all hu. man ingenuity, and all the mailgnity of British council bave within gns, and to carry out repeal in spite of every possible resistance. (Loud cheers.) Iam but en humbleman-—I am noth y belong to the people—but,and 1 am prow roclaim it to you, I belong to the very hum: ot the people. “(Cheers.) Tdo speak it with ocrat on the varth do I owe enything, 1 contempt that [have for the whole class. (Deafening shouts of applause.) Gentlemen, there are many of the body which I believe is justly called re- vered, and to which Ihave the honor and consolation of belonging—(“hear, hear,” and cheers)—many of them prevented {rom being here and at other impo: ings from infirmity, unavoidable official duties on the bed of sickness, but | believe I may speak of- ficially, and without exaggeration say, that not only are they Repealers, put thet they participate with ardour in every sentiment that hes falien trom me.” (Cheers.) There can scarcely be imagined any thing more calculated to inflame and excite the minds of the people then such a speech, delivered with all the highsanction of the episcopal authority. The Duke of Wellington in the House of Lords, ir Robert Peel in the House of Commons, had i the attention of Parliament to the subject of h agitation, end had deelared in the most atic manner the determination of the Goyern- (tempts at dismemberment of the Lord Broughem on this occasion made a expressed himself in very strong terms heir grasp the power to countervail their ca the Ir om meant to resist all em apeech, an ainst conduct of Mr. O’Connell, which elicit- ed the following characteristic notice from the latter, at a meeting at the Dublin Corn Exchange :— hanked the Dulte of Wellingtoa for the import gnce be hal given them—ne thanked Lord Roden—he thanked thet despiesble Whig the Marquis of Lansdowne Broughs mos od that most despic —( le of all politians, Hen spaper Brougham, that as tre ‘ous to his He ln orment ot empire remember a P en! existe He (the liament in Ive i, the British wa ent out o!

L t \ her once consent to it, and in twenty-five minutes the Union would be re- ny o agiand never conquered us; she obtained a render of the arms of 80,000 disciplined troops, on the faith of a solemn treaty for securing our liberties, bnt that treaty was infamously broken. She took the vaine, and swind) us out of our rights. J tell Sir K.

After afew observations ix a onnell resumed his seat. le rose and said—Sir R, Peel talks of civil war— let him try it if he dare. (Here the meeting rose end cheered for several minutes.) The newspapers throughout the South of Ireland are filled with imflamatory appeals to the people, alm 1, if not altogether as violent as those which appeared in the “ Dublin Prese” in the period of the rebellion of 98. The following is 4 specimen of the mildest of those articles—it is from the “ Cork Ex- am ner”? pa \.."Let us sdppose the agitation of repoalte be rendered all |Jerful execution.

It wouldraise Ireland in spite of the Union ; and it would humble England in spite of her power. Remember, Irishmen! your tathers have ‘a lesgon and example of legal retaliation!—: the non-use of Bi manufactures! That Ireland has suffered severely from mie-gov- ernment no one who knows her history can deny.— But she has had of late years, large concessions made to her by the United Parliament. She has obtained Catholic Emancipation. She has had a tolerable share of the benefits of the Reform Bill. She has in fact gained a great deal of that for whic’ the “ Uni- ted Irishmen” contended. The abolishment of ten bishoprics, and the modifications of the tithe system —insufficient as they were—have, at all events, somewhat alleviated the pressure of the unjust cburch establishment, and given some promise of ultrmate complete relief. ‘Che greatest curse of Ire- jand this day, isdemagogucism. There are in Ire- land a set of unprincipled politicians, who are driving a very profitable trade in the factious spirit, the vio- lent prejudices, the fierce passions of the people.— And then there are the Catholic clergy, before whose eyes float, continually, the splendid vision of their church restored to her ancient regal supremacy and glory. These are the sources of Ire- land’s disquiet and much of her misery. [tis indeed deplorable, now that that great revolution, which has with almost miraculous power, converted a na- tion, whose intemperance was proverbial, into ana- tion of unexampled sobriety, has been completed— as we believe we may correctly say—that its blessed fruits of quiet, industry and peace,should be threaten. ed with destruction—that the blossoming hopes of a whole nation should be thus breathed upon by the accursed spirit of heartless demagogues. Asto the chances of success in any contest with Great Britain, Ireland has none. In one week Eng- land could pour in her troops of thousands and tens of thousands, and crush rebellion before it had struck a blow. As the London Standard forcibly re- marks— & The rebellion of 1798 was suppressed—a fact which the incendiary tries to keep out of sight, and suppressed un- der circumstances which, by their extreme contrast de- monstrate the ease with which a rebellion would be sup- pressed now. Ia 1798 Great Britain had been engaged in five years of exhausting and disastrous war—Great Bri- tain’ has now reposed 27 years ia peace. In 1793, the whole naval force of Great Britain was required to guard her own coasts, Her ships now ride in every sea; in three weeks enough of them coud be collect blockade every harbour of Ireland. communication between the islands were ao imperfect, that we find it stated in a newspaper of the day, that the transports conveying the Dumiries Light Dragoons were twenty-two days in the passage from Liverpool te Dub- lin, In the same number of hours half adozen steamers could now convey an army sufficient for the conquest of Ireland. In 1798, the important maritime town of Wex- ford was suffered to remain occupied by rebels for a month. Now, the Geyser or the Cyclops or any other stout steamer would dislodge the traitors in half a day. Treland has, however, one chance ef success which she had not in 1798. Of course it cannot rea- dily be overlooked by any one interested in the busi- ness, Ireland hasa formidable ally. She has suc- ceeded in gaining the good will, and enlisting the powerful aid of a strong auxiliary on this continent. She has Robert Tyler for an ally! He is upin arms— enlisting recruits—making speeches—and de- claring war to the hilt against Prince Albert. How much this circumstance alters the chances in Ire- land’s favor, we leave to those more skilled in mili- tary tactics to determine. Prince Robert, we may add, takes up the cudgelsin behalf of Ircland at Bos- ton, immediately after the Bunker Hill celebration. This is right. A tragedy is usually succeeded by a farce. We were wrong in saying that Ireland has no chances in case of a contest with her powerful mistress. Tus Buren Hier. OxcenraTion.—The greatest preparations are making for this great event, not only in New England, but in all the adjoining States — The project of a dinner in the evening, it is thought, will be abandoned. ‘We learn that it is the intention of the Committee of Arrangements, to erect seats on the glacis of the Monument equare for the accommodation of ladies, to the number, it is calculated, of tifteen hundred. Those ladies who were most active in getting up the Fair, in 1840, by which the funds for completing the monument were obtaiaed, will, of course, be first provided for. What a gathering of the fair daughters of New England will be seen on this occasion! Altogether the acene will be one of surpassing splendor. We shall, in a day or two, give some information rela- tive to the best way of travelling to Boston, and the means of accommodation there. cil: to In 1798 the means of Tne Prestpent at Howarp’s Horer.<The Com- inittee, as we have already stated, have decided that tne President and his suite will take rooms at Howard's Hotel on his approaching visit.

Mr. Wenster’s Bautimore Sreecn has just been issued in an elegant pamphlet form bya committee of his friends in this city. Itisa reprint of our re- port with a very few verbal alterations. The com- mittee might have acknowledged the source to which they were indebted for the report of the speech. However, we can afford to be generous. ‘We may add in this connection, that our report of Mr. Webster's speech on the “‘ Jay map” before the Historical Society, was republished by them ver- batim et literatim, also without acknowledgement. Granp Vocat anv InstrumENTAL Concert.—The Concert at the Apollo Saloon, to-morrow evening, willintroduce to a New York audience, W. V. Wal- lace ; and if the extraordinary enconiums bestowed on him bythe musical journals in Europe are at all deserved, he will produce a great sensation. He is de- scribed as “the greatest artist upon both the piano and violin, that has yet appeared. With the grammati- cal correctness of Spohr, whose pupil he is, he unites the brilliancy of Peganini. Mr. W.’s tone on the violin is at once mellow and powerful—his staccato perfectand rapid, his pizzicato clear and brilliant. His piano forte performance is fully equal to his violin.” Again: “* Mr. Wallace 1s, without doubt, the best pianist that has visited this country. As a pertormer, he will compare advantageously with Lizst, Herz, Thatberg, and other great masters of this instrument.” And again, “ Mr. W. is probably better known by his compositions than by his won- been publisned in London, France, and Havana, where they. deservedly enjoy a very high reputation. ‘They are characterized by great originality, but like the compositions of Thalberg, (of which they re- nuind us) they contain difficulties which none but a master of the instrament can overcome.” ‘This is high praise, but the critics who have heard Mr. W. have entirely concurred in awarding it. The Coneert to-morrow evening, will, however, enable the musical world to judge for themselves, and there will, no doubt, be a very splendid audience. Mr. Wallace will be assisted by Madame Sutton, the best vocalist now in the United States; by Mesers. F. Brownand Kyle ; and the accomplished Timm will preside at the piano. Navat Orpers—June 1.—Lieut, J. K. Bowie, to be Inspector of Provisions; Mid. C. Benham, to the independence; Mid. F. M. Humphrey, leave two months; Master’s mate T. M. Crooker, to the re- ceiving ship at Boston. Commarciat Re.ations oy THE Unirap States anp Great Barrain.—In the course of the debate on the Corn-Law question, Mr. Thornley made the fol- lowing remarks, which are interesting, as they have reference to a subject now so generally discussed amongst us— In October last he had proceeded to Washington and had paid his respects to the American President, to whom he had ted a statement of the reductions of aay made by the right honorable baronet (Sir R. Peel) app! cable tothe produce of the United States. He had told the President that he hoped such reductions would lead toa increase of the commercial intercourse between Great Britain and America. The President re- rg AY value thedoeument you have put into my hands; it 1 do not see how wecan trade ly with your under the present Corn-laws ” fact was,that never suffi estimated the i of the American trade. Under what was called "sCom- promise Act the Tariff in the United States bad, for 10 years, been in a eourse of gradual reduction down to 20 per cent.; and the compleint was that Great Britain had made no attempt to meet these reductions by a change in her Corn-lawa. Ths remcones be advantage ane thus been given to the northern parts Urope. 6 Ameri: cans faa particularised our commercial treaty with Por- tugal, a poor country, which could only take ourgoods to the extent of a million sterling, while we had no treaty with the United States, which could take our goods to the extent of seven millions sterling, and which had « popula tion of seventeen millions, doubling every 24 years, The Americans contended that if there were a tree trade in corn, they would receive our manufactures to an extent of which at present we had no idea. In tl time manufactures had been making a rapid progress in the United States. He had been present at the nual exhibition of woollen, cotton, glass, cutlery, d hardware goods, and he could beer witness to their vance in point of excellence. Something had been said respecting the admission of grain from the United States into Canada. He did not think that any great quantity would be imported, nor did he think that the Bri- tish goverument would gain any credit with that of Am rica by the arrangement. Certain it was that the Ameri- can ship owners, like those of this country, were very jealous of foreign interference, and they apprehended that it was a plan by which a quantity of wheat weuld be carried into a British colony in order that it might be im- ported into this country in British vessels. On this the London Globe observes :— The point then to which we call the attention of the people of England, and demand that of Sir Robert Peel, as individually and personally responsible for the very pe- culiar posture of atfairs caused by his circumspect policy —the point which we would presé on attention is—Are we prepared to meet American relaxation of restriction on our manufactures by an equivalent admission of a direct trade in American corn and flour? We do not ask our government to throw a free corn trade at the head of Ame- rica, Weare not clear that this should be done, but we are clear that we should show ourselves ready \o meet, to the full extent, American dispositions to relaxation.— Are our rulers ready to do this? Is this the mystery of Sir Robert’s non-committals? We can only say. that if ‘otiation on fair terms is practicable, and is thrown fered to keep out Ameri. |—if this chance of equi- table and extended commerce is to be whistled down the all former ones—the people of England shall now the servile hand that protracts their land- slavery—that dooms them, when the ebundance and com- merce ef new worlds are offered their acceptance—“ to lie in cold obstruction, and to rot”—or to emigrate for bread. Deatu or ALDERMAN Bonnett.—This gentleman, like Gen. Harrison, undoubtedly fell a victim to the spirit of office begging—he was literally hunted to death. A distinguished member of the present De- mocratic City Government writes of him thus—“It is to be feared that the political importunitles to which he must have been subjected as a member of the present Democratic Caucus, hastened this event.” Those having the gift of offices need iron constitutions. : Turatrica.—Dan Marble has been engaged at the Park, and makes his first appearance thisevening in two favorite characters. Mr. Marble is an actor of great merit. His representations of Yankee characters are of the highest order of excellence, and in pathetic melo-drama he is very successful. Mr. and Mrs. Brougham are also engaged at the Park. Mrs. Brougham isa very lovely woman, and in the higher walks of comedy is unequalled by any actresson the American stage. his impersonations of Irish character, is the only actor we have seen who reminds us forcibly of the ever-to-be-lamented Tyrone Power. Mr. Brougham in Mrs. Thorne has recovered from her indisposi- tion, and is now playing at the Chatham, where she is deservedly a great favorite. She isa very charm- ing woman, and an actress of great and varied talent. Miss Reynolds, Burton and other artists, make their first appearance at Niblo’s this season, on Tuesday next. The English vaudevilles will be un- der the management of John Sefton, and they ae fortunate in being under such efficient hands. ‘The Ravels are engaged at Niblo’s, and will ap- pear in due time. Mr. A. Putuuirs’ Concert THs Eventna.—This gentleman’s concert takes place this evening at Con- cert Hall, which has been elegantly decorated for the occasion. He will be assisted by several lead- ing artistes of this city. It isexpected to be a very fine affair. Cuataam Tuxatre.—This evening Yankee Hill takes a benefit, and presents one of the most attrac- tive bills of the season. In addition to himself, we see Mr. Jones, who made such a decided hit on Saturday evening, is announced in two pieces; Mrs. ‘Thorne is also to appear as Gertrude, in ‘* The Loan of a Lover ;” # style of character in which this lady excels. Let Hili’s friends muster strong to-night, and give him “fa bumper at parting.” Barn Hovse ror Save.—It will be seen from an advertisement in another column, that the elegant bath-house at New Brighton is offered for sale at auction this aiterneon, at3 o’clock. There wil! be sharp bidding between the rival hotels there for this necessary adjunct to their establishments. Avon Spring Wartens.—For advice respecting the probable effect of these waters in their indivi. dual cases, and for analysis of the different springs, valuable information may be obtained o! Dr. Fran- cis, No. 1 Bond street, of Dr. Bulkley, 43 Bleecker street, or of Dr. bury, at the Springs. City Intelligence. Mone Devevorments.—Each day brings to light some curious development, as to the manner in which office holders discharge their duties, and fulfil the trusts r-posed in them by the gvodly Fathers of our goodly city of Gotham. Scarce a week has elapsed within these past five months, that we have not had reports of escapes from Blackwell's Island, especially of females, which excited no little surprise among the persons in charge. Yester- day the mystery was solved ; a pretty unfortunate, named Caroline Morgan, who waa couvioted a petit larceny, on the 24th March last, and sent up to Black well’s Island for thre» months, but who managed to escape during the fellowing month, was arrested by officer Ruc. kle, and on her examination, confessed that one of the late deputy keepers, Jerry Fowler, had given her her freedom, and lent her moncy to reach the city. The only boon she was to give in return, was to send him the num: ber of the house where she had taken up her residence, To this fact she has made affiJavit, and we shall perhaps have more light thrown on the matter when Jerry tells his story. » Saciag in his morning th Jacob reing in your paper this morning that poor Jaco! Shipman, whostole only $20,000 from a bank that can afford it—and from Wall street brokers who deserve no better than to be robbed—has been committed to prison to await his trial. I think it would not be amiss to call on the proper authorities to bring to trial that infamous thief and swindler, who, as sec- retary of an insurance company, robbed #0 many poor widows and orphans (ockboldecs of their all—who stole $150,000 out of a capital of $350,000, and who might have been brought to trial almost year ago. Shipman, who had it in his power to become the greatest thief of the two, was ‘satisfied with a trifling amount, comparatively speaking, will perhaps receive a sentence which thieves merit, while the other individual is quietly residing in the most fashionable street of New York, Broadway, living no doubt on the interest of his stealing: Pray, Mr. Benneit, say. soma tine 4 this subjeet, now and then, without fear of his backers.

Ingham, N.A. ‘This picture has the merit of be- ing @ strong likeness of its distinguished subject; for the rest, it has all the manneriam of the artist's general style, which, we have before said, is not to our taste. 208. Lanpscarg, Kenniwortu Castix.—T. Cole, N.A.—Can this picture be by Cole—by the man whose former works gave him deservedly a fore- most rank among the best landscape painters of the world? was our declamation, as we looked upon the blaze of staring green and yellow, of which it is composed. In point of color and effect, we are constrained to say that this production would be i itable to the merest tyro in art, and we can- not sufficiently regret that Mr. Cole should have given the sanction of his name to so false and un- worthy astyle. True to his owngenius, our young landscape painters need not desire a better or purer model, but committing, as he has done in this pic- pure, high treasoa against that genius, his example should be shunned rather than imitated. We sin- cerely hope that Mr. Cole may speedily repent. of his apostacy, and return to that station in art which he is so eminently qualified to adorn. 249. Last InreERvigew Between Harvey Bincu anv Wasuinaton.—A. B. Durand, N.A.—Mr. Du- rand possesses remarkuble versatility oftalent. Kx- cellent in some departments, he is respectable in whatever he undertakes. To be at once the best line engraver of the day, a good portrait painter, clever in landscape, and aboye mediocrity in his- torical composition, is certainly proof of very un- common powers. But with all our admiration of Mr. Darand’s talents, we must regret that they were not at an earlier day concentrated upon some one style—for he then would have been very great, one pi the few destined to immortality. As it is, we tear that he wiil do little more than delight the ge- neration in which he lives; but to do this much in 80 many ways, 1s surely high merit, and entities him to the thanks and admiration of his country, The picture we are now called upon to notice, is well designed, and painted ina firm effective manner. The figure of Washington, we thick, is somewhat too melodramatic in its character—that of Birch is very easy and natural. Upon the whole, a charm- ing little picture. 223. Suzruerv Boy or THe Campacna —D. Hun- tington, N. A.—One of the finest works we have seen of this admirable artist. It is a graceful and finished composition, and in a delightful style of color. Mr. Huntington has lately lett us on a visit to Europe, where, we doubt net, he will improve his naturally fine taste; and reap a rich harvest, both of honor and profit. ek 207. Divipine THE Pir.—Comegys.—-This is a clear and characteristic sketch by a young artist of Philadelphia, whose early promise was blasted by a sudden attack of insanity, under which he has labor- ed for several years past. He is now a resident of the Philadelphia Lunatic Asylum, and hardly a hope is entertained of his Fecurery, The few pic- tures he painted, are much prized by their \- ‘sors, for their quaint and natural humor—and ai a fort in a higher walk, ‘The Arist’s Dream,” w! was purchased by and engraved for the ‘‘Apollo As- sociation,” has been much and deservedly admired His fate is truly melancholy. It is eaid that his in- sanity was caused by disappointment, arising from the non-fulfilment of a promise made by a patron, to ive him the means of studying in Europe. We ag. not if this be true, but can easily conceive its possibility ; and if it is, we do not envy the feelings of the man who could thus wantonly sport with and deceive the hopes of a young and enthusiastic natur 197. Rutu’s Enrrgaty.—T. Hicks, A —This pic- ture has been much praised, but we must confess we cannot discover upon what grounds. The compo- sition is angular and ungraceful, and the coloriag dry aad brick-dusty. The mechanical execution ot the picture is good, being solid and forcible—but its utter want of delicacy and poetic conception is poor- ly atoned for by such a merit. We donot cenceive it to be at all a fair specimen of Mr. Hicks’ powers, of which we are far trom entertaining a mean opin- ion, having seen many agreeable compositions trom his pencil. x 166. Ecck Homo.—-W. Page, N. A.—There is much admirable painting about this picture, but yet asa whole, it does not please us. The coloring of esh is not equal to Mr. Page’s general style, and although there is considerable beauty in the ex- pression of the Savior’s face, yet we think it would have been more consistent, had it conveyed some idea of physical suffering. The forehead is galled and wounded by the crown of thorns, (a master piece of painting, by-the-by,) and asChrist took upon himselt for a time man’s nature, so he was subject to man’s infirmities—his countenance therefore, we contend, should exprees suflering, dignified by lof ty endurance and resignation. Mr. Page has evident- ly not so conceived it. 178. Heap or am oun Lapy.—W. J. Bolten.— There is considerable character and force in this picture, but it is marred by either real or aftected carelessness in the handling. We suspect the latter.

Anmat Patnrine.—It is somewhat remarkable that in @ country nguished for its fine breed of horses, so few artists should have devoted them- selves to animal portraiture. | Troye has hitherto been the only painter of eminence in this depart iment, but we have seen lately some performances by Mr. Clark, a young artist of this city, which evince « determination on his part to share the lau rels of the celebrated Kentuckian. His portraits of horses are painted wiih great spirit and fidelity to nature, and his likenesses are peculiarly felicitous. He has nearly completed a picture ot ‘‘ Fashion,” which ig said by the knowing ones to be a fac simile of that heroine of the turt, and which we un derstand is to be engraved for the “Spirit of the Times.” Various specimens ot Mr. Clark’s pencil may be seen at Mr. Edmond Jones’ Second Ward Hoiel, and we commend him to the attenuon of the sporting world—as an artist in every way worthy of patronage.

Custom House Robbery—Arrest of Breedlove—Col- lector — Post master—Elections— Weather —Business —Banks—Stocks— Another Murder—Another Du- el—Success of Com. Moore. Dear Bernerr:— Captain Harper arrived here yesterday from ‘Washington City, with J. W. Breedlove and his ac- complices, in the robbery of the Custom-house. Breedlove is not a son, as the Globe has it, but a ne- phew of J. W. Breedlove, late President of the At- chatalaya Bank, against whoma suit was some time ago instituted by the Commissioners, for nearly twe hundred thousand dollars excess of issues in that | institution. As young Breedlove and hisaccomplices were likely to prove troublesome customers, Capt. Harper was obliged to hand-cuff them, and employ extra persons to guard them, during the greater part of the journey to this city. Jewell and Rhynders accuse Breedlove of taking the money,and giving it to them to get exchanged. Halliday, who hasbeen arrested at St. Louis, as being concerned in the rapbery. is now on his way, and will shortly arrive ere. Itis the opinion here that Collector Morgan will be removed ; certainly hissureties ought to be made liable to pay whatever has been Jost by his negli- gence. Gen. Dawson, the new postmaster, will, without doubt, be elected to Congress; in thatevent we shall have a new postmaster before the end of July. It is rumored also, there will be removals in those departments shortly. The July elections will probably terminate in favor of the democrats; two aresureto be sentto Congress. This State has, within a few months past, undergone a great politi- cal change, and itis still going on. o AYThe river, after threatening to overflow its banks, is now falling. The weather has been dry and re- markably warm. Business is dull, and but few transactions in western produce. The Banks are not making their expenses, and one by one are set- tling up. ‘Che Union Bank must next go into liqui- dation ; it is impossible for her to pay her bonds. Anarrangement is about being made with the Bank of Louisiana to take the Government deposits The Mechanics’ Bank stands weil. The President of the oy Bank has been at hisold tricks again in the Council of the Municipality, by resorting 10 new ex- pavinaie to pay old debts ofthe 2d Municipality. If e was butshorn of his honors as a Bank President, there would be none who would fall so low. How the City Bank will ultimately turn out, isstill uncer- tain ; its stock lately sold for 23 for 100 paid. Gas stock 8 for $50 paid. Union is 20 per cent below par. It has just been ascertained that T. Downing, late sheriff of Washington county, Miss. has been mur- dered in a house of ill-fame in this city, where he spent the night. He had on his person at the time about $3000. The parties have been arrested. A rencontre took place yesterday between Rev. Mr. Mullen anda Dr. Melntire, in which the for- mer gota good drubbing. It appears that after get- ting the Doctor’s money to build St. Patrick’s Church with, he wished to follow the example ot Mississippi by repudiating, which did’nt suit the Doe- tor altogether. As usual, with the warm ;weather and for want ot employment, the annual trade of duelling has commenced. One came off yesterday, in which one of the parties fell, dangerously wounded. ‘That, with the prospect of yellow fever breaking out short- ly, hasinduced a great number of persons to leave town. I shall not be able to see you, however, be- fore the first of July, as I have still some business to settle up. In the meantime I will write you all the news going. Cc. W. S.

Sunday, June 1—6 2, M, The financial position of the United States at this mo- ment, is undoubtedly one of unparalleled strength. Eu- Tepe has no demands upon the country, and the low specie level to which the currency has been reduced, precludes the possibility of its being much influenced by the stato of affairs in England. Tho news by the last steamer has added prodigiously to the security of our affairs. We may sum up the leading aud conflicting features, which during the coming year, will exert an influence upon American ailairs. - Ast. The scercity of money in the interior. 2d. The accumulation of coin on the sea board ia the Banks of the Atlantic cities. 8d. The approaching agitatien of the tariff question, which will undoubtedly be modified at the next session. 4th. The present abundance of money in England causing American produce to rise in price, motwithstand- ing the abundance of the crops. 6th. The corn law question. 6th. The perilous condition of the Irish repeal question. All these circumstances scem to guarantee acontinued abundance of money here. The great accumulation of money which has taken place on the sea board during the Jast nine months, has undoubtedly been the direct resuit of the tariff agitation. When the compromise act expired onthe 0th June last, sixty days elapsed, during which 20 per cent duties ouly were levied, yet the ruinous eftest of uncertainty was such that the imports fell off in the thid quarter 50 per cent, a8 compared with the same quarter of the previous year. The following shows the f 2278.37 Prat 575 Fourth quarter of 1839, 78 116,975 Fine. nee 1810, 96,263 401 92,991,965 Second ** e SAGA AB B5adisiot Thi“ . 201271025 387.518.0268 17, 197.888 741519 127,9.6,177 99,957,329 The imports in the 4th quarter of 1842, were scarcely $12,000,000, showing a decline of $31,000,009 1n the im” ports of the Jest six months of 1842, as compared with the same period of the previous year. Tis at a period of uourually large crops, of course filled the vaults of the banks with specie. The prices of western preduco aro now rising under the sbundance of money. ‘This will naturally induce funds to find their way west in search of the low produce, In lookiag forward to tke revived demand of money, growing out of impreved import trade in the fall, we find thet the same circumstance which crushed thattrade last year, will agein be im ful) opera: tion this. Strong efforts will undoubtedly be made to modify the tariff, either by a direct reduction of duties, or through the medium of commercial treaties, Whatever may bo dona, however, the experience of the past assures us, thatthe uncertainty will prevent large orders from going abroad, at lenst uolil twelve to fifteen milions of the next crops are realized. Hence no demand can be made upon the banks for coin {rom abroad on that ac- count, ‘The abundance of moncy in England, which is at last stimulating trade and improving the price of American produce, is operating very beneficislly for this country, and will accelerate a renewed export of the precious metals to this country when the new crops move for- ward, more especially if, which however is not now probable,a modification of the corn laws takes place. That some moveraent will be made towards the commercial system sketched by Daniel Webster, Erq., seems pretty evident. It is remarkable, that in the debate on the Budget on the 9th May, the Ex Chancellor, F. Baring, Esq, proposed a reduction of duty on nearly the same articles mentioned in the Baltimore speech of Mr- Webster. Mr. Baring remarked as follows :— Thero wete raany other articles tpen which a similar re- duction was most important. There were the articles of butter and cheese, whh regard to which the right honora- ble beronet had said, last year, that the duties upon them ought to be reduced at the first possible moment. There: was cotton wool also—a most important article, a reduc- tion of the duty upon which would do much to give new life and vigor to Kngland’s declining and drooping trade. Sir Robert Peel remarked, in answer :— { With respect to the coal duty, the suger duty, and the yy upon any a hap hag er er aie yet ing itted to the house n some | fuage stesso ‘and ti them I think it will be tofiaitely to rewrve thelr discussion. 1, ot least, shall for | ony abstain from discussing them at present. 6 Mr. Gladstone remarked ri , 4 satisfied that that motion could be adopted { without proaueiag great inconvenience in the 5! ape ot a violent action upon the currency. At the present time ; there was a great drain of gold from this to Ame- | rica, and lieved that the quantity obtained by that ‘ nation from ag end since the commencement of the pre- sent year could not amount to less than £3,000,000 ster- ling. The state of the circulation of this country hed, however, enabled it to bear that drain without injury or inconvenience ; but he thought that that drain was likely to continue. proposal ot the honorable gentleman opposite would & tendency to bring in an importa- tlon of @ cont lo quantity of foreign corn, and he siderab! was afraid that such importation must be paid for in bul. lion. The Customs’ laws of America and of other coun- tries were so severe and so hostile to our productions, that he believed if any change teok place with respect to the importation of corn, thut that corn or flour must be paid for in bullion, and ‘this might occasion great inconven- ience in the country. ‘The rise in prices of American prodace in England and the increase! demand under reviving trade and cheap provisions, will undoubtedly, under our disturbed cus: toms’ regulations, cause a severe drain upon the Englith currency, in the event of centinued political quiet. Mere especially as the extensive liquidation of the Banks herg
