‘To-morrow we shall publish a double sheet, so as to accommodate our advertising patrons, and give our readers a full meal. Important from Washington—The Tariff. We received private intelligence last evening, from such sources at Washington, as leaves little doubt of its accuracy, that the new Tariff bill, with very slight alteration, wil pass both houses of Con- gress and become a law during the present session, probably before May. There never has been any question of the bill passing the House by a large majority, but hereto. fore many have supposed that it could not get through the Senate, in consequence of the opposi- tion of the whig majority in that body. We now learn, that, during Mr. Clay’s visit in the south, that eminent statesman has for various reasons, modified his tariff views—and that under this new influence, the southern whig Senators will all go for the new tariff bill. Anotherreason is the hos- tility recently broken out towards Mr. Clay by the abolitionists, by which his pro: pects will be injured at the north, unless a counterpoise be created at the south. With the passage of the new tariff by the aid of the southern whig Senators, it is believed that Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, and Lou- isiana, can be secured for Mr. Clay—while the same measure cannot effect his cause in the non- slaveholding states. This is, certainly, a new and important view of the question, and bids tair to become matter of fact. We have names of the highest character, and dates also, for believing that the new tariff bill will thus become a law by the aid of enlightened whig Senators—but we are not authorized to reveal more at present. Enough to make the men of com- merce und trade feel glad. Tue Tytrr Party in New Yorx.—When and where is the Tyler party to reorganize in New York, and elect delegates to the new Baltimore Convention on the 27th of May next?’ This move- mext has been pressed again and again by our worthy friend, John Jones, of the ‘“Madisonian”— not John Jones, the button maker, of 26 Platt street, up stairs—and he calls upon them in the most earnest tones, to reassemble their forces—if they have any—and to elect the delegates that are going to settle all the difficulties which beset the party. John Jones says that there is a Machiavelli— some great and powerful spirit somewhere, either in New York or Washington, which prevents the elements here from gathering into a respectable nucleus. Does John allude to Mr. Spencer, or to Edward Curtis—or to John Lorimer Graham—or to Silas M. Stillwell—or to any other office holder? In order to do away with all the doubts and diffi- culties on this subject, we think it is time for the office holders here to make some movement. It is fully time for those who are benefitting by this ad- ministration to come forth and achieve something in the way of doing it justice, as they callit. We, therefore, call upon Mr. Curtis to come out and show his hand. WHe receives ten thousand dollars a year, and ought in all conscience to do something. We call upon John Lorimer Graham to come out and do something. He is another re- cipient of the favor of this administration. We call upon Moses Y. Beach, the eminent publisher of the list of letters, to come out and show his hand. We call upon Silas M. Stillwell. We call upon one and all of the office holders to come up to the scratch like men. “ Now's the day, and nows the hour, See the front of battle lower; See approach Van Buren’s power— Chains and slavery!” Sprrine Evection.—The whigs have nominated Morris Franklin as their candidate for Mayor; and the “ natives” have nominated James Harper, the publisher of the ‘Pictorial Bible,” for the same office. In a day or two we expect that the locofo- cos will make their nomination ; but who their man may be we,do not know. They may select Jona. J. Coddington, who would make a most ex- cellent Mayor; or Eli Moere ; but we do not think they onght to take Alderman Purdy, whose con- duct during his term of office in many respects can- not be at all commended. He is, besides, now connected with a clique of men in whom the com- munity do not repose the slightest degree of vonti- dence. This, then, is the position of affairs as the spring election approaches. The three parties are in the field—each with a separate organization. What are their respective chances? The locofocos have decidedly the best chance of carrying the city.— They will undoubtedly elect the Mayor, according to all appearances, if the Irish vote be net taken away from them, and go over, horse, foot and dragoons. to the whigs—a thing that is not at all improbable ; ana we should not be at all surprised to see some efforts made to take their vote away from Tammany Hall. On the other hand, the “natives” seem to have little chance of electing their Mayor, and we understand that in consequence of the mis- management of their own committees and defec- tive organization, it is not possible for them to get more than three or four wards. The probability is, however, that in the aggregate of the election there may be in the corporation a minority of each party, so that it wil be a sort of triangular corporation ; and triangular warfare, like the memorable duel in “‘ Midshipman Easy.” The chances are, however, in favor of the locotocos. OpgniNne or THE Camparan BY THE Locorocos.— Taking the cue from the whigs, the locofocos have made arrangements for a grand celebration in the Tabernacle, on Friday evening next. They are de- termined to show that they can sing down—shout down—and talk down the Clay men, and turn out more pretty women into the bargain. For this pur- pose they have hired the Tabernacle of the Rev. Mr. Hale, engaged a powerful choir, manufactured half a dozen rattling songs, and charged to the muzzle a dozen of the strongest-lunged juvenile spouters of the party. We shall send our full corps of reporters, and give a complete report next morn- ing EP eA eit Ayorner Mustcau Wonper.—We understand from good authority that Madame Unbeck Hellberg, lately arrived in this country from Sweden, intends giving a Concert at Washington Hall, in the latter part of this month. This young lady has the ex- traordinary compass of three uctaves, and has, by competent judges, in many instances been com- pared with the great Malibran. Her deep and beautiful contralto is said to be most charming We recommend all admirers of enrapturing voice and female beauty to go and hear this nightingale and accomplished lady. Let us know what she cando. Democratic Pataces.—These, in the shape of magnificent packet ships, continue to increase in this city, and therefore, over the whole world. Yesterday, one of six hundred tons burthen, was added tothe New Orleans line of packets, to be com- manded by Capt. John S. Bennett. She was built by Fickett & Thomas, and would make a very beautiful yacht, although on a large scale. New York rivals the world in ship bnilding. Tneateicar, &c —Macteady finished his en- gagement in New Orleans on the Ist inst. He clesed with a neat and feeling addrese—and is on his way back to the north—probably by the way of Mobile, being afraid of explosions on the Missis- sippi. Forrest commenced his engagement on the 4th inst. Damoreau and Artot gave a concert on the same night. Tney were to leave in a day or two: Sarvons’ Riguts —Who, but the jsailors them- selves are to maintain these righte? Let them, one and all, meet to night at half-past seven o’clock, at the Henry Clay House, 117 Washing- ton street, and ascertain if they can. See callin another column Coxxecricrt Evzction.—This election is going to be a very interesting event, as indicating in ceitain respects what the vote of the State may be in the great contest between Clay and Van Buren. We pay little attention to the triumphs claimed by both parties in particular isolated towns all over the country, and the great noise and vaporing, which they attempt to raise when a little paltry charter election takes place here or there. The Connecticut election, however, will express the sentiments of the whole commanity of that State onthe great question now agitating the country, and its result will necessarily have an important bearing. In furtherance of our views, as to the position of parties in Connecticut, which we offered a few days ago, we can now add the evidence of Mr. Philosopher Greeley himself, who has been down in that quarter, reconnoitering the field, and comes back in a state of considerable despondency as re- gards the prospects of whig success. His alarm and anxiety arise from the singular position now held by the abolition party there, and in all the other States. Horace complains very bitterly of the “potency for mischief” of the fanatics, and does not conceal his alarm in finding that their organ has taken up the cudgels against Mr. Clay with a sort of phrensied vigor. He considers that they constitute the right wing of the locofoco host, and expresses his opinion, that the whigs if they ean save themselves, must have a desperate hard run for it. The locofocos according to Horace, have adopted very judicious tactics, and have got the abolitionists completely over to their ranks. Thus it will be seen that this abolition element is going to play a more important part in the next Pre- sidential election than any one ever anticipated ; and we should not be at all surprised to see the whole result hang upon that question. If the aboli- tionists can poll 100,000 or 150,000 in the various from giving either defeat or victory to one or other of the candidates according as they subtract from this or that party their votes? The chances are, however, decidedly in favor of Van Buren, singu- larly enough too. New Movement tN Fasuionaste Soctery—His- ToricaL Socrery Sorrges.—A new movement has just been attempted in our fashionable and intellec- tual society, which very much resembles the Wis- tar parties in Philadelphia, so celebrated a few years ago. Last evening asoriée was held at the house of Mr. De Peyster, the Secretary of the Historical Society, 88 University Place, which was attended by a number of eminent, intellectual gentlemen of the city, and strangers of distinction. This isa new feature, which has never been at- tempted here, or if so, has failed altogether. It has certainly prospects of success now. The Historical Society has been in existence for a considerable number of years; and several gen- tlemen, erainent in their social and literary posi- tion, have been at great pains to give it eclat, and to make it a centre of collecting and diffusing in- formation in relation to historical subjects con- nected with this country. And now, in order to give ita more social character, they have esta- blished a series of sotrées, to be given in rotation atthe houses of the principal inembers, mixing, in this manner, philesophy with wine and walnuts; and enlivening the dry details of historical research with the wit, humor, and loveliness of the drawing- room. TratiaN OpERa.—We perceive that the Boston and Philadelphia newspapers, at least some of them, are very busy in congratulating themselves, that Anniversary of the German Soelety at ihe Astor House Last Evening. The sixtieth anniversary of this highly respec- table society was celebrated at the Astor House last evening with all the usual degree of elegance and propriety, The following is a copy of the ticket sent us, beautifully engraved:— 000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000 0 ZUR 60ren JAHRESFEIER DER DEUTSCHEN GESELLSCHAFT.

Fur die Festordner, Juco Guem. 9000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Our German fellow citizens have always dis- tinguished themselves on these occasions by the liberality and munificence of the entertainment, and certainly this one was in all respects worthy of its predecessors. The dining room was deco- rated in the most tasteful and classical style. At the head of the room, immediately behind the President’s chair, was a magnificent painting, representing the genius of Germany, surrounded by a wreath encircling the arms of the various States. Underneath were the words—‘Ein Eimges Teutschland’’—“United Germany.” On the right of this painting was a large portrait of Goethe, and on the other side a portrait of Guttenberg. Be- tween the recesses of the windows were es- cutcheons, encircled by garlands of laurel, and bearing the illustrious names of “Scum.” — “Jean Paut”—Herper”?—‘Kant”—Korner”—— “WieLanp”—Lessinc’—“ Hauer.” non-slave-holding States, what is to hinder them | according to the best accounts from New York, there is no great chance for the permanent estab- lishment of the Italian Opera—that, thus far, it has been rather a losing concern, and that the taste and wealth of this city have merely made a feeble effort, which will sink away in a few days. We have no doubt our fashionable friends in those cities, not being able to enjoy the Opera themselves very well, would like to deprive us of that refined and delicious amusement, which now draws many of their own persons of taste and fashion to this city in order to participate in it — This is human nature. But we doubt whether their charitable desires will be gratified in this respect. It is very true that thus far the manager of the opera, Mr. Palmo himself, has been under the necessity of getting up a complimentary benefit, in order to pay up deficiencies; but the real state of the facts indicate most plainly that the opera here has been liberally patronized, and that the only error has been an unequal distribution of the spoils or re- ceipts, which was originally caused by the rivalry between Mr. Simpson, of the Park, and Mr. Pal- mo, of which the troupe availed themselves, and drove a hard bargain. The receipts nightly, have been on an average between eight and nine hun- dred dollars—a very satisfactory proof of the popu- larity of the Opera, and showing conclusively that there are ample means of securing its permanent establishment. But instead of this sum being equally and fairly distributed four of the principal vocalists get one halt of the receipts. Why are they overpaid whilst the manager, the orchestra and others are underpaid ? Even Borghese herself, whose talents deserve every degree of applause, receives much more than ever she did at Havana. In a few days we will be able to give the fulldetail about this matter, and trace to their proper origin all the causes which have produced this state of things. We do not blame the troupe with Valtellina at their head for making as hard a bargain as they could; but still, in order to secure the success and permanency of the opera,there must be an equitable distribution of the proceeds. In the meantime, we perceive that to-night Beli- sario will be repeated, and on to-morrow night will be given Rapetti’s benefit. Rapetti is one of the sufferers by the unequal distribution. Whilst the principal singer gets $110 a night, this accomplish- ed leader, to whose ‘skill and talents the success of the opera is most essentially indebted, receives a paltry sum, hardly adequate to pay his hack hire. Well, he takes a benefit, and even that he gener- ously shares with Mr. Palmo, after all getting only the half of the oyster. We trust his merits will meet, even in those circumstances, something ap- proaching to a reward,—and that the next engage- ment may be made on more equitable principles to all concerned. NeGuicence iN THE Post Orrice.—There must be the most gross carelessness practised in the ma- nagement of our Post Office. Scarcelya day passes without a complaint of some kind. On Sunday afternoon last, four or five New Orleans mails arrived here, and in one of them, that of the 2d inst., were slips giving the particulars of the re- cent terrible calamity to the steamer Buckeye: This slip, we, of course, ought to have received by four o’clock that afternoon. Yet, not strange to say, however, they did not reech this or any other newspaperestablishment in this city till some- time on Monday morning, eighteen or twenty hours after it was received at the office. How long are we to suffer from such negligence? Can't some- thing be done by somebody to remedy all the evils complained of in our most miserably managed Post Office? Is this to last till the 4th of next March? Leuc Istanp Broox Trovr.—A glance at the advertisement of Messrs. Snedicor & Thompson, of the Phenix Exchange, corner of Pine and Nas- Sau streets, will no doubt attract the admirers of this rare and highly flavored artiele, to their gene- ral invitation for this day, to their friends and cus- tomers.

Notices ro Connesronpents.—* A friend of the Herald” is informed that we are the best judge of our own business. His opinion is not worth a straw-—not @ straw At the head of the table were the excellent Pre- sident of the Society, Conran W. Faner, Esq., Moses H. Gainneuy, President of the New Eng- land Society, Ricagp Irvin, President of the St Andrew’s Society, —— Reysurn, President of the St. Patrick’s Society, Dr. Manty, President ot the St. Nicholas’ Society, Jos. Fowxer, President of St. George’s Society, the Rev. Mr. Srouuman, Pair Hone, Joun C. Detrras, C. K. Decay, and Georce Arcutanivs, (the oldest member of the Society.) Upwards of three hnndred gentlemen sat down to dinner, amongst whom we recognised many of our most eminent and opulent merchants. Noth- ing indeed could more intelligibly have indicated the extent and importance of the obligations which the city of New York owes to the intelligence, en- terprise, industry, probity and wealth of the sons of the old world, than the appearance of that festive hall. A more respectable company we never saw assembled on any occasion in this city. Of the variety, elegance and profusion. of the materials of the banquet, the names of the hgs of the Astor House afford ample guaranty of them- selves. In order, however, to allow thoge who were not there to have some faint idea of the good things provided, we annex the bill of fare: CARTE DU DINER, POTAGES. Potage en Tortue. POISONS.

After the cloth was removed, the president gave the first regular toast— “ Our Father land.” This was drank with great enthusiasm, and was fellow- ed by a national air by the band. Glasses de Vannille, next — America the land we live in.” Drank with great applause. Air—Yankee Doodle. Then came— “The President of the United States.” Great applause. Air—Star Spangled Banner. The Present then said—In giving the next toast I re- gret very much the absence of the chief magistrate of the city, who has on all occasions proved himself the true friend of the Germans—(loud applause) He had pro- mised to be present, but is unavoidably absent. He has fent us a toast which I shall give in due time. Inthe meantime let us drink— “The City of New York and his Honor the Mayor.” Drank with great enthusaism The Parsinext then gave the toast sent by the Mayor “Germany —she gives princes to kingdoms, and patrio tic citizens to republics ” ‘This was received with loud and long continued cheer: ing. ‘he next regular toast was— “Our Sister Societies ” Fow: rn returned thanks on behalf of the St Ya Society He said he did not mean to inflict a peech on the company; indeed, he had been so repeatedly calledon on similar occasions, that he was completely “used up” (Lunghter and applause) But there was, happily. one theme which was not yet exhausted. It was hat of the character of the worthy occupant of the chair. Mr F,, then, after some highly complimentary remarks, La ny om “The health of Conrad W. Faber, Esq.” ‘Three times three and one cheer more. Mr. Fane returned thanks. He had been taken #0 com- letely by surprise that he hardly knew how to reply to in et ‘jiums. He could not find words to express his feeling. and could only thank them for the manner in which? the company had received the toast which had been so flattoringly fee a Ricnarp Inwin, Exq., briefly returned thanks on behalf of the St. Andrew’s saat Ad le begged to propose a sen- timent in honor of one ofthe most important institutions of Germany. He alluded to the ‘‘Hanse Towns.” Their en- terprize, wealth and energy, had contributed greatly to the advancement of commerce, whilst to their republican apirit Europe owed much of her liberty —(Cheeras) The burghers, equal among themselves, kuew no superiority but that of industry and integrity. a traded with the nations of Europe, aud their sturdy independence made them reepected all over the world.—(Cheers.) Mr. I. con- cluded by giving “The Hans Towns of Germany—The abodes of com mercial enterprise, of mercantile honor, of genuine hospi- tality, and enlightened ireedom.” Drank with loud applause, Mr. Revaunw, the worthy President of the St. Patrick's iety, returned thanks in brief but happy terms, and “The Robbers of Schiller’—the only robbera for whom Irishmen have any regard.” ‘This was received with loud laughter and applause. Mr Gatywete replied in behalf of the New England So- ciety He paid a high compliment to the integrity and enterprize of the German mercantile community of New York. He felt proud in the association with the Presi- dents of the other Societies, They were met there to celebrate the anniversary of a charitable institution, whose benefits had been felt from one end of the city to the other. And why not all—all meet and quaff their wine and puff their cigars in fraternal affection on such an occasion. (Cheers) That meeting was sanctified and hallowed by feelings common to the universal heart of man, They were, then, the representatives not of par- ticular nations, but of humanity itself (Cheers) They were then as sojourpers to one land of rest—the children of onecommon Universal Father (Cheers) Let such feel- ings still animate them, and furnish motives to their daily conduct, He rose not to speak, so help him God, but the inspiration of the music, ofthe occasion, he could not resist. (Cheers.) He y giving © The Germans—never exiles in New England, but the kindred as they are to her ifinity of character, being equally distinguish- ry and domestic virtue. 5 » President of the St. Nicholas Society, then returned thanks. He was, he said, pretty much in the condition of one of his associates—nearly used up. But as he was the representative of the settlers of New York, not be ultogether silent. Besides he could claim affinity with the Germans, for his grandfather and grand- mother were both Germans (applause) He made some excellent remarks on patriotism and benevolence, and concluded by giving— “The Benevolence that does not wait for death for op- portunity of action.” The Pt jent next gave, after afew beautitul remarks. “The unity of Germany—the emblem being this feast and this assemblage—the morning of its birth is now dawning in the father-lund.” Drank with great app! A national air was here sung in glorious style by the professional gentlemen. ‘The next regular toast was— “The German Oak—as its shadow is spread far and wide, so 16 the German nation spread over Europe, but no longer like the oak, unconscious of its strength.” jational Air- e German Oak.” ‘Then came the next regular toast— b toon invention of Guttenberg—free and unshackled e its use— Be not atraid of the folly of raving madmen— Do not tremble at the free use of the press !” Mr. Gauno, of Philadelphia, responded to this toast in a speech inthe German language, delivered with great werand animation Hedwelt at length on the ardent love of liberty which animated the German people—de- clared that Germany would never take freedom at second hand—she would work out her own liberties, He was lad that Germany had not succeeded to her wishes in 840, Since then she had made the acquaintance of her princes. Then she would have been satisfie| with the slightest concessions on their part—now, she will accept nothing less than the whole. (Cheers.) At that time, in the words of Goethe, they thought it mighty coudescend- ing in a lordto speak even humanely with the devil— (Laughter.) Now Germany has made the acquaintance of Ernest of Cumberland, and if she had only half'a dozen more such princes, she would soon be where she ought to be—(Loud and continued cheering) Four what children they were, when the King of Pri his coronation speech, which he had learned from the and which made the whole of Germany, Prussian—(Cheers) He then gave them nothing but a mild censorship, instead of a rigorous one, but soon com- menced pulling the strings and tightening the rei iy aegrest. But when Germany will move she will have no reins at all—(Enthusiastic applause) Mr. G. then men- tioned the King of Wurtemburgh as especially deserving honorable notice as a friend ot treedom. He concluded a speech which excited the most enthusiastic applause, by e Future of Germany and its Glorious Past,—and the three standing lions in the scutcheon of the house of HoHENSTAUFFEN. Drank with great applausa. The next regular toast was. “ Commerce and Indust eas, languages and cus- tomsseparatepations, It isthe high destiny of commerce to nourish industry and good feeling, thus uniting all Jancis.” Then came the tenth toast— “Our Rights as American citisens—what the Constitu- tion secures to us, we shall never suffer to be taken away.” ‘This palpuble hit at the American Republicans, fexclied thunders of applause. ‘Then came the last regular toast— “ The Ladies—may innocence, love and fidelity be ever their most precious ornaments.” Nine times nine. The Pr ent then said that they had thus far allowed the professional gentlemen to sing for them ; now he would call on the company themselves to unite in one of their own songs. ‘The “ Song of the Rhine” was then sung by the com- pany. accompanied by the band. ‘The Presipent then, after a brief euloginm on his cha- racter, gave— “The Memory of Ed.

Mr. Hows returned thanks in a neat and feeling speech, which, we regret, our space will not permit us to give.— He alluded to the magnificent bequest of the late —-——, and gave, as a toast, “The German literatnre and 1 jage—the munificent bequest of a lamented son of our fatherland has planted them in the academic spre of Columbia College, where they will take root and flourish under the care of a skilful cultivator.

He embraced the oppor- tunity of saying that that festival had nothing whatever todo with the politics of this country. Look around you said he, all that you see relates to the fatherland. It is an instinctive feeling in the German nation which prompts useverto remember the land ef our birth—(cheers )— Neither here nor at home have the Germans a political po- sition. ‘They are striving for a political position in bu- rope, and I believe, with the help of God, they will get it (Cheers) All that they strive for here has been to extend their commercial intercourse; and at this moment | know that the very heart of the Germans is set upon a treaty with this country, which shall perpetuate the friendly feelings which exist between the two countries.

Mr. Garxvewt responded in a brief but very appropriate speech. He seid that the Germans had indeed ever con- ducted themselves as good and orderly citizens, and on that account they were to be cherished and respected (Cheers.) And he could assure them that by all intelli gent and right thinking Americans, they would be #0 es. r. @ congludad by giving — i “The land we came fromdear to me, but not dearer than that of ouradoption.” (Drank with loud cheers.)

It waa led by Schneider, and was universally acknowledged to be one of the most effective ever engaged on any such occasion We also must not omit mention of the professional singers who contributed so much to’ the enjoyment of ti sion.
