didates—The state of Parties, and future Prospects. Oar announcement on Sunday morning that Col. Johnson designed quietly to slip through this city on his way to Hartford, produced the effect among politicians of a bomb shell amongst a pent-up city inhabitants in a besieged citadel. They gaped in extreme wonderment, and asked their neighbors what it meant. Those members of the committees appointed to conduct the arrangements for the Colonel's reception, whose meetings were appointed for a late period of the week, looked supremely ri- diculous on finding that Old Tecumseh would have passed eastward ere they could meet. They may, bewever, possibly learn a lesson of wisdom from this incident. The old hero, they will perceive, does not intend to trust to the tardy movements of politicians; he takes the business into his own hands, and, after all, that is the only effectual mode to secure success. He willprove himself as danger- ous a customer to Mr. Van Buren in the next presi- denial campaign, as he was to thefIndian Chief in the battle of the Thames. The state of parties is indeed singularly obscure, and the position of each candidate is peculiarly criti- cal. Mr. Van Buren and Mr. Calhoun have been hitherto the most prominent, and the elections of delegates to the National Convention have been de- cided in most cases in reference to the claims of those two distinguished statesmen; but, like con- testing horses in a race, having made the running from the ‘* score,” unless they have ‘‘ good bottom” and are sound, “‘ wind and limb,” they will fail ere they approach the goal. There are already ad- vances made by some who were nearly invisible in the far distant group of competitors, and an “out- sider” may yet gain the prize. Seriously, we see a waning of the fortunes of Mr. Van Buren. By the superior tactics of his party leaders, he gained the thirty-six New York State delegates to the National Convention, and this event was calculated to give confidence to other States, which are desirous to give their support to the most available candidate; but here a mass meeting of the people was called to respond to the doings of the Syracuse Conventien, and the whole affair was so disastrous, that proof was given of Mr. Van Buren’s weakness in this, which was deemed his strong hold. Some expectants and waiters on Providence, magnified hundreds into thousands of the congregated masses ; but the ex posure of the fraud has plunged them into hopeless desperation, and it will be wofully calamitous to them elsewhere. But the arrival of Col. Johnson at this opportune moment will complete the rout of Mr. Van Buren’s forces, both north and east. Be- sides, Mr. Calhoun’s friends are becoming more_ac- tive, and Gen. Cass is making rapid advances in the general favor. For Mr. Van Buren there is a lack of enthusiasm amongst his friends, and he has to contend with the defection of all disappointed applicants for office during his occupancy of the Presidential chair, and their names are “ legion ;” and insome States, which are now deemed} secure for him, his well-informed friends admit that his Popularity is overrated. Mr. Calhoun has many friends, but it is very doubtful whether they are suf- ficiently numerous to obtain for him the nomina- tion, nor can Mr. Buchanan or Col. Johnson be successful without the coalition of other parties.— The probability is, then, that neither of ;the promi- ‘Qg- Mr. L.

She left Liverpool on the 19th ult., and is therefore due at Boston, The Post Office Department ‘The Postmaster General has addressed a circular to the owners of steamboats and railroads, which for cool contempt of public opinion, and disregard for its wants and conveniences, excels any thing which has emanated from an official source on this side of the water within the present century. The Constitution of the United States simply states, thay “ Congress shall have power to establish post offices and post roa Out of this grant to Congress, Mr. Wickliffe in his circular, manufactures the as- sertion, that no citizen has aright to send a letter, newspaper, or packet, by any conveyance over a mail route. Of late years, a large portion of the circulation ot newspapers, is conveyed from city to city in large bundles, which at the point of desti- nation, are opened, folded, and distributed to sub- scribers, or sold. Pamphlets and magazines, on which the post charge is heavy, are of necessity conveyed in this manner, and expressly to meet this contingency, and to afford every facility to the pub- lic to procure their papers in the most prompt and cheap manner. Congress enacted in 1825, as fol- lowa:— The Postmaster General, in any contract he may enter into for the conveyance of the mail, may authorize the person with whom such contract is to be made, to carry newspapers, magazines and pamphlets, other than those conveyed in the mail: Provided, that no preference shall be given to the publisher of one newspaper over that of another in the sare place.” Here is a law expressly enacted, to enable the aster to meet inj the ffullest manner the ants of the public. It was done expressly to do away with any forced censtruction of the eriginal law, by which a postmaster might arrogate to him- weil the power of trenching upon the rights of the people. Whatis the proper course to be pursued under this law, which in itself is a mere disavowal on the part of Congress of any intention to molest the free transit of newspapers? Simply to bend to the wishes of the people, and attend to the strict duties of his department. This course, which was that pureued by his predeceseors, did not suit the present incumbent. He wishes to make the best use of his power. He construes the law as fol- lows:— That such a privilege, upon many of the railroad and steamboat routes, and indeed upon other routes, would be advantageous alike to the publisher and the public, ; but it must be granted upon ap- plication, and specific terms. If, therefore, any —— wishes to convey newspapers over your ime, out of the mail, he should make application to you, state the name and number of papers, daily or otherwise, and, upon your report and application to this a ey the terms upon which it can be done will be made known; which terms will be equally applicable to all papers. The Constitution, in granting to Congress the por ment-—Governor's Speech. We have received late advices from all parts of Caiiada They are interesting in a political and commercial peint of view. The Provincial Parliament opened its third ses- sion in Kingston, on the 28th ult. On the same day the Governor, Sir Charles Metcalf, announced that he had called the follewing gentlemen to the Le- gislative Council :— Hor, William Warren Baldwin, “ Christopher Widmer, “ Rene Joseph Kimber, « Amilius Irving, “ Louis Massue, “ Pierre Boucher de Boucherville. Parliament began its session with a speech from the Governor, which we annex. (From the Canada Gazette Extraordinary of Sept. 25} Speech of the Governor General. Leowrative Councu, Cuamn: Kincston, Sept. 28, 1 Honorable Gentlemen of the Legislative Council,and Gen> tlemen of the House of As: i I am happy to meet ‘you assembled for the discharge of the high functions entrusted to you, Various considera- tions of importance have prevented my calling you toge. ther at an earlier period. Since your last Session the birth of a Princess has fused joy throughout the British Empire, and we reason tobe deep]: ‘ateful for the continued protection vouchsafed by Almighty Providence to our Gracious br ape whose life and health are blessings to her sub- jects. Inthe same interval, an offlicting event has occurred in Canada by the demise of 7 late Governor, my imme- diate predecessor, whose heart was devoted to the public welfare. Universal regret has done honor to his memory throughout the Province; and I cannot abstain from no- ticing that his desolate widow and family, and his mortal remeins, in passing through the neighboring territories of the United States to place of embarkation at New York, were received with marked and affecting tokens of Rendle, respect, which indicated both the esteem in which he was held in a country in which he had been personally well known, and also a generous sympathy worthy of the great nation by which it was evinced. The Act of the Imperial Legislature which facilitates the introduction of Canadian wheat, and of flour prepar- ed in Canada, into the ports of the United Kingdom, will, Itrust, prove to be a valuable boon to this Province; and isa farther proof of her Majesty’s unremitted care for the prosperity of this portion of her dominions. A copy of adespatch from her Majesty’s Secretary of State on this subject will be laid before you. Measures will be submitted to you for the improvement of the system of Judiceture in Lower Canada; of the Municipal Institutions, the laws relating to Education, and the Jury System of both Divisions of the United Pro- vince, and of the Assessment Laws in Upper Canada, as well as on ether important subjects; all of which will, I am sure, engage your earnest attention Ihave recently made a tour through the Irovince, such as the exigency of public business would permit, in order that I might become in some degree acquainted with local circumstances requiring attention. Thave had great gratification in seeing a fine country, evidently advancing in improvement; and have every where been received with manifestations of loyalty to fal iy ious Sovereign, and with personal kindness to mysel t has been highly satisfactory to me to witness the great works in progress, which, owing to the loan raised in England under the guarantee of the Imperial Govern ment, the Province has been enabled to undertake or prosecute. They are calculated, 1 hope, to extend the commerce, and develope the resources of this vast coun try, and increase the public revenue and general and individual wealth. In those parts where works of this description are in progress, I fuund contentment prevailing at the prospect which they present. In other parts there isa cry for im- proved roads, for the conveyance of produce to oppo” priate markets, a claim which is worthy of considera- tion; for on such communications the Prosperity of the country must in a great measure depend. Nowhere was this anxiety more strongly expressed than in the eastern townships of Lower Canada, where the community, al- most entirely agricultural, in consequence of the heavy duties imposed on their produce in the United States,have lost the market to which they had formerly reeourse, while the exemption from duty in our country of the si- milar produce of our neighbors, enables them, by greater facilities of conveyance, to undersell the producers of the eastern townships in our own markets. Similar complaints of the effects of the duties onour produce in the United States, and of the facility given to arlia- power to establish post roads, did not intend to de- prive the citizen of his natural right of sending a packet by a public conveyance by any messenger he chooses. Congress, by the law of 1825, so far from denying the right of individuals of having their own messenger, gives the postmaster the pewer of al- lowing the government contractor to carry news- papers and magazines free of charge. But this sa} pient postmaster denies that the community have any rights in the matter, except such as they derive from the Department ‘en such terms as will be made known.” ‘The terms” isa phrase which would imply another “contract” in view. The time 18 now fast approaching when the matter at issue between the postmaster and the people will be brought to a close. The success of the private expresses is proof conclusive that the government arrangement, from the mismanagement of the head of the Department, no longer answers the ends of its establishment. Recxiess Stace Drivinc.—Last night about 9 o’cleck, a cab was proceeding quietly up Chambers street, containing a gentleman sitting on the back seat. As the cabturned into Broadway, an omni- bus, driven at a furious rate on the left side of the street, dashed against the cab, the pole of the om- nibus striking the back part of it opposite the back seat with such violence, as to smash the rear of the cab into atoms. Half a hundred persone instantly rushed to pick up the dead body of the passenger, jorall who saw the collision were certain that he was killed. Luckily, however, the gentleman saw the omnibus before it struck, and with remarkable presence of mind sprang upon the front seat, and eseaped unharmed. If he had been looking in any other direction, escape from death would have been impossible. The omnibus driver drove on at a fu- rious rate, but the cab driver, after running several blocks, overtook it and obtained itsmumber. Seve- ral gentlemen present immediately gave their names as witnesses of the transaction. The stage was one of Palmer’s, and the city No. is 66; but its own number is believed tobe 6. The cvb’s No. is 38. It isto be hoyed that this affair will not be suf- fered to poss unnoticed by the proper authorities. nent candidates which we have named will receive the nomination of the Baltimore Convention. The eccond choice ot the friends of Mr. Calhoun, Colonel Johnson, Mr. Buchanan, and many of Mr. Van Buren’s most talented friends is, General Casa, and on him they will ultimately unite. If General Cass should be nominated, no human power, nor earthly agency could prevent his election. He would unite the democratic party with a large por- tion of the whigs, and establish the government on a firm basis, purge it of the corruptions which have disfigured it, dismiss to obscurity the mere selfish intriguing politician, and be the harbinger cf anew anda betterera. In such an event the republic will be safe. Doubtful then as is the future, the movements of the present are peculiarly interesting, and those of Colonel Johnson more particularly. He isdeter- mined to try his own strength in the national con- vention, and if he fails he will give his aid to Ge- neral Cass, but at all events he will stand arrayed against Mr. Van Buren, and so will Mr. Calhoun, who will also aid General Cass when his own chances are exploded. With the convention then, as now constituted, Mr. Van Buren is in danger of losing the nomination; but if he obtains it, Mr. Calhoun’s friends may disown its authority, as un- fairly constituted, run the free trade candidate on his own merits, and apathetic as the people are to- wards Mr. Van Buren, the election will go to the House of Representatives, where his chances of defeat outbalance his chances of success The signs of the times are ominous, but we shall decipher them carefully for the information of our readers. Movemenrs.—Among the arrivals at the Ameri- can Hotel we perceive thefname of the Hon. W. S. Hubbell, member of Congress elect for the counties of Steuben and Allegany, New York. Bishop Doane of New Jersey, was at the Astor yesterday, but he left in the evening for Boston. Nrsto’s.—Donizetti’s new opera of Gemma di Vergy was very successtully represented last night by the new gingers Calveti and Perozzi. It is to be repeated to-morrow. To-night the Ravels produce their last novelty, the Conjurer’s Gift. During the Jong run of the ‘* 55 Misfortwnes,” the family have been incessantly employed rehearsing the Conju- rer’s Gift. Antoine appears as the clown, in which he is mimitable. Gabriel, Jerome, and Madame Leon also appear. Indeed, the pantomime is cast with the entire strength of the corps dramatique.— The whole piece is produced by Jerome Ravel, who has become celebrated as an author from his Ma- zulme, and Fortunatus, and the pantomime of this evening is said to be equal to the one, superior to the other. The beautiful classic groupings of the three gladiators, are to be represented in the usual relief of the Ravela, by Jerome, Antoine, and the Gabriel. Cuatuam Tueatre.—Grattan’s new drama of the Rebel Chief still holds possession of the stage, and will, we hope, do so fer days to come. With thejchaste and quiet personations of Mr. Grattan, the lovely Norah by Mrs. Jones, the volatile Mrs. Herring, the piece is an attractive fea- ture. In addition to the attractions of the ‘ Chief,’ to-night, the ever popular commedette of the Rake’s Progress will be produced, with a new dance by Miss Rallia, and Irish songs, jigs, and all that sort of thing, in abundance. Races.—All the races of the meeting are adver- tised te come off on the Union course to-day. Five races willbe run. The first race, sweepstakes for three year olds, two mile heats; after which, sweepstakes for three year olds, mile heats ; after which, purse races of two mile beats ; mile heats, best three in five, and mile heats. For the first there are five entries ; for the second, also five en- tries ; and for the last race there are three entries. See advertisement. A Jewisu FestivaL.— Wednesday is the most so- Jemn festival of the year with the Israelites through- out the world, being the Day of Atonement. The origin of this institution is to be found in Leviticus. xvi. 29. The fast commences this evening at six o'clock, and continues until Wednesday evening at sven o’clock. Divine worship continues through- out the whole day, the minister performing the service m white linen shrouds, which are preserved jzious care untildeath, when they are used » ) biliments for the grave. The Synagogues reeont on this day a most interesting spectacle— showing Israel's scattered children flocking to the eacred spot, where the remnant of their former great treasures 18 still to be found in the law of Mo- ses; the whole of the five books being inscribed by hand in the Hebrew characters, on fine vellum, which is rolled on scrolls of wood, ornamented with gold and silver, and precious stones. Tae New Jersey Triat.—The murder trial in Hudson county terminated on Sunday morning.— The case was given to the jury about seven o’clock on Saturday evening, and at two o’cloek on Sun- day morning they came into court with a verdict of “raanslaughter” against both the prisoners, Graham and Lammer. The extreme punishment for man- slaughter in New Jersey, is imprisonment in the State prison for ten years. ORaTION ON THE CroTon.—Last evening Mr. E. D. Connery, of thie city, delivered an excellent ora- tion before the Prospect Temperance Society. He took a new view of the temperance cause, and showed clearly that water and wisdom were synony- mous words. Original thoughts in beautiful Jan- guage gushed up like the Croton from the Park Fountain. Stonon Ciorri’s Concent.—This celebrated trom- es a grand vocal and inetrumental concert to-night at Washington Hotel. He is an old favor- ite here, and will be well patronised for his own me- rits; but herelies not on them alone, having se- cured the aid of many distinguished persons of the profession, amonget whom are Sig. Antognini and Madame Otto. Sig. Cioffi is the gentleman who signalised himself by conveying ladies to places of satety during the alarm of fire at Niblo’s Garden some short time since, and consequently the ladies willeupport him, if it were only in acknowledg- ment of his services and his gallantry. Universal Gazetrerr.—The fourth number of McCulloch’s “‘ Dictionary, Geographical, Statisti- cal, and Historical,” is out. Itcontinues the work to “Bridport,” and includes several articles of con- siderable length and interest. The whole will be comprised in eighteen numbers, and will contain seven maps.

Whatever improvement can be afforded to our internal communications, is so obviously desirable for the advantage of the community, that any outlay devoted to that object and- consistent with the means at command, must be highly beneficial. It is, therefore, much to be |, that the state of the finances does not afford any immediate prospect of our being able to meet the wishes of many districts deeply interested in this respect. I cannot refrain from bringing to your notice, as a sub- ject worthy of consideration, the state of the Prisons in Some portions of the Province. The Penitentiary at Kingston is an institution very creditable to the country: Great cost has been incurred in the erection of Prisons in other places, and some of the local authorities are now laudably exerting themselves to provide suitable accom- modations for prisoners; but in some places there is great deficiency. The justice due even to criminals requires that they should not be subjected to greater punishment than what is designed by their sentence, and that di or death, from foul air and want of exercise, should not be superadded to imprisonment. Itis likewise due to un- tried prisoners, who may be innocent, that they should not be confined in the same cell with convicted criminals. A classification and separation of the latter is alse requi- site. Decency and morality demand the same with regard to the sexes; and debtors and criminals ought not to be confined together. It is desirable that inquiry should be made, in order to ascertain in what respects the prisons of @ country may be defective in requisite accommodation, id to renee any material deficiency that may exist. The establishment of a lunatic asylum in Lower Cana- da is much required; those who are visited with the af- fliction of mental aberration being now confinedin the common prison, or in some of the religious and charitable institutions which do honor to that portion of the Pro- vince. Measures are in progress for the permanent leca- tion of the asylum now existing under a temporary ar- rangement in Upper Canada, and for the completion of the arrangements of that institution. ° Gentlemen of the House of Assembly: The accounts for the estimates for the present year will be lai! before you. I am concerned to an- nounce to you that there is a considerable decrease in the revenue, but I hope that it proceeds from temporary cat ses, and that it will be followed by a greater increase. The loan obtained in England, under the guarantee of the imperial government has been raised on advantageowr terms. ‘The act of the imperial legislature prescribing a new tariff, renders necessary a eeaeeine alteration in our custom laws, and this subject will be brought under your consideration. ibhave no doubt of your readiness to pro- vide for the ay epier of the public service, and as far as that object can be promoted by practicable and judicious economy, you may rely on my ion. Honorable Gentlemen of the Legislative Council, and Gen tlemen of the House of Assembly: 1 will not detain you longer from the commencement of yourarduous duties. The welfare of Canada depends ou the result of your deliberations on the numerous important questions which will come before you, that great end will, I trust, be the sole object of your la- bors. It isthe anxious desire of Her Majesty’s govern- ment, and will be the constant aim of at endeavors. I humbly hope that the blessing of Almighty God will crown our united efforts with success. It is stated in the Kingston papers that the cabi- net is already breaking to atoms on the seat of go- vernment question. Not only Harrison, but Came- ron and Killaby have resigned. Canada iscertainly in a very unsettled position. Navau.—The schooner Flirt, from Norfolk, has arrived at Charleston. Com. Wilkinson took command of the United States Navy Yard, Gosport, last Thursday, vice Com. Shubrick, whose term of command expires. Com. Shubrick took passage for Washington the same day. Recorper or New Orveans.—The democrats have succeeded in electing Mr. Genois to fill the place made vacant by the death of the Hon. Paul Bertus, Recorder of the First Municipality of New Orleans. The vote stood—for Genois 655, for Cru- zat, 472. Cincinnati Exzction.—Mr. E. 8. Harris has con. sented to run in opposition to Dr. Duncan for the seat in Congress for Hamilton County, Ohio. They are both democrats. The whigs do not run a can- didate, but William Young, a whig, will run, self nominated. They have also a liberty candidate. Exxcrions.—There are to be elections this month in Georgia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New Jersey. Next month, in Michigan, Mississip- pi and Maseachuse: Visrrors To Niacana Fauus.—We learn that ten thousand people have paid toll at the Goat Island Bridge, Niagara, during the past season. This, at 2% cents each, produces the handsome sum of $2,- 500. Yetvow Faver is ona rapid increase in Mobile. Twenty-four new cases were reported there on the three days ending 24th ult.

A Necro Burorar Suot.—On Saturday night Captain George Marshal, of the schooner Isaac Oakley, lying at the foot of Leroy street, was awakened from his slumbers by the noise of person r the vessel. He rose, and seizing a loaded pitel, until the burglar had made entrance, and then fired the pistol at him. The burglar bolted and was arrested by a citizen, who heard the shouts of “stopthief” from the captain, who wason the chase. The burglar proved to be a negro, who gave his name as Anthony Johnson, for- merly of Willismaburg, LI. ‘The shot oi the pistol took effect in his breast, and the not yet been ex tracted.

Fire Police.—The Chief Engineer presented the fol- lowing communication, which was referred to the pro- per committee :— To the Honorable the Commen Council of the City of New ‘or The undersigned respectfully represents, that serious isgraceful fights andl gts have recently occurred be- tween different Fire Engme Companies, priacipally origi- nating with low and violent characters, whose respective companies have been disbanded and broken up by your honorable body, and who attach themselves to others on occasions of fire, to create fights and diserders, ond thus degrade the character, and impair the usefulness and dis cipline of the department.

The Comptroller having stated that it was his intention not to make a fire there, the report was adopted. Another Flare up.—Alderman Nash, Chairman of the Committee of Public Places and Repairs, presented a com- munication, in which he charges Edward M. Hoffmire, the Superintendent of Repairs, with violation of his duties, which he asked should be referred to a select committee for examination. Alderman B. 3 denied that the communication con- tained any clear charges a tthe Superintendent. Aldermen Scouss anc stained the communica- tion. Alderman Trou sustained the reference to a Com- mittee. Alderman Wareaman also sustained the same position and referred the Common Council to the conduct of Bla- ziers A. Moore, as Superintendent of Roads of last year, in which he expended money in irs upon the roads without authority, which conduct cal for the adoption of a resolution calling for a searching enquiry into all ex- penditures of public offices S a Alderman Lex said that no bills were psid by the Comptroller unless signed by a majority of the committee to whom it was referred, and that such had been the case in all bills paid for expenditurcs made by the Superin- tendent of Repairs.

Aldermen Lex and Titov were in favor of the adop tion of the resolution, as they believed that an investiga tion would show the unfounded character of the allega- tions.

QG- BOAT RACE.—In answer to the “plain state- ment” of 8.Dorlen, in yesterday’s Herald, I shall take this last opportvnity of informing the public of some of the facts of the case, and leave them to ascertain why the judges cannot decide upon our late contest, aad the rea- son they cannot agree as to who was the victor. Two of the judges say it was afair race, and honorably won by me; the other two, without giving any satisfactory rea- son, contend that it was not, tough every unprejudiced person will acknowledge I beat full 25 yards. Now, as they will not show cause why they withhold from me my just due, I will. Mr. Henry Storks holds a bet be- tween one of the latter judges (John Jennings) and Mr. 11, to the amount of $118, and Mr.Chauncey St. John holds an eighty-four dollar bet made by this « gentleman (Jennings) and another individual; and tl one of the men who refuses to decide on therage. A: other evidence that I won the race fair, I would state that several individuals, whose names Ihave, have called upon me and stated that they had made bets upen Dorlon, and considering the race fairly won by me, have given up the mo: 1 will give their names to any one who doubts this, will takethe trouble to call on me. The Proprietors of Castle Garden, also considering me honorab! |i Lenk the victor, have given methe $25 previous! | Essen zg tothe winning boat. If Mr. Dorlon (and his friends) will act honorably and acknowledge himself fairly beaten in this last race, then will I be rea- dy to try him again—uatil he does, to talk of rowing an- other race with me is useless.

The follow: certifi- cates from the most scientific gentlemen are published to show their worth :— e, President of the Ameri- From General James Tallm: can Institute. Saunders’ Razor Strop, with its four sides, combines ad-, mirably all the requisites to sharpen and set razors with « fine and smooth edge—it is a real comfort to jens it. JAMES TALLMADGE. New York, November, 1641. From M, Miiliken, Cutler to the Royal Navy, 301 Strand. The Metallic Tablet, in its use, is simple, having the same effect on a razor as a hone, without using oil or wa- ter, and in a tenth part of thetime. After five years trial Tcan recommend it with perfect confidence. M. MILLIKIN. From Professor Griscom and Dr. Valentine Mott George Saunders’ Imperial Strop—We can freely t fy to its value. The side which he calls the Metallic let is, as far as we know, a thing of his own introduction into this country; it appears to be an excellent, cenveni- ent substitute for a hone, and operates on the same princi- ple as steel does upon a table knife, but with far greater smoothness and certainty; it saves the unpleasant neces- sity of oi] and water, to assist in whetting. The other three sides of the strop are extremely well finished, flat, smooth and almost elastic, preserving the razor from thet roundness of edge which so soon destroys its keenness. J.
