EW YORK HERALD New York, Monday, April 22, 1844. STEAMSHIP ACADIA. The Acadia was out seventeen days yesterday noon. ‘The fog on the Eastern coast has caused her detention. She has arrived by this time we should think. We shall probably receive her news at two o’clock this afternoon, by the New Haven boat. Progress of the Tyler-Calhoun Mov —Symptoms of the fall of Van Buren of the rise of Clay. The two greatest and most ‘original centres for political action in this glorious, fertile, funny and philosophical country, are certainly the city of Wash- ington and the city of New York. In the former city the impulses of mere politicians prevail—in the latter, those of the people. In Washington all is interest, intrigue, violence and folly—ia New York | all is nature, impulse, fun and philosophy. Let us come to facts. During the whole winter Controversy—Can exist without a Donkey The community has been very much amused of late by various controversies and discussions, some- times on religion, sometimes on politics, sometimes on the opera, and sometimes on nothing at all). We have had the Potts and Wainwright controversy, and the whole town has been engaged in discuss- ing the theological question, “‘ Whether a Church can exist without a Bishop?’ But this exciting controversy has now died away with all the other discussions of the day—have been forced to give place to one of the most momentous controversies which has ever agitated society in modern times —we mean the important question,“whether a beau- tiful danseuse can exist without a donkey?” Thus question involving, as will be at once perceivied, # variety of the most serious and profound considera tions, has been brought forward in the most im- posing form by a certain Chevalier who has dis charged the duties, and occupied the post of don- key in various capacities in Europe and America. in Washington, the politicians have been forming | We have already given some inkling of this con. plots, arranging details—concocting tickets, and in- | troversy, a tew days since, but it now begins to as- triguing for the next Presidency, and also the suc- | sume such a very grave and important, philosophi- cession.

Now it happens that he had nothing whatever to do with the procuring of that admission. It was obtained by another individual from Sir Henry Webster, whose note accompany- ing the order we still have in our possession. Mr. Hume—a wealthy and nobly connected Irish gen- tleman, of Humewood, in Ireland, was the person who procured us that admission, and Sir Henry Webster was the gentleman to whom he applied and who called at our Hotel one day with the or- der in his hand, and not finding us at home, he left the following note enclosing the order:— 31 Urren Broox Street, Aug. 31. I heard that you were desirous of an order to see Buck- ingham Palace.

Mr. W. J. Davis’ Concert.—The annual concert of this most excellent Fiutist takes place this even- ing, atthe Apollo Saloon. The programme will be found in our columns; we think it in every way a most admirable one, and the artists engaged are among the most esteemed in our city. Tr. Davis has wisely put his price at 50 cents, although he offers attractions as great as most of the Dollar coucerts yet given—good singers, popular soloists, and a full and powertu) orchestra, conducted by Loder and Alpers. We do not at ail doubt that his liberality and public spit will be rewarded by an overflowing room.

Mns Bexwert, Lona’s Hore. It will be seen from this, how easy it is to prove this chevalier to be utterly regardless of truth, and perfectly reckless in making assertions which he cannot find even the semblance of a fact to sustain; unless, indeed, he can bring forward “ the waiters of Long’s Hotel,” who may be able to put a differ- ent face on the matter. Thus much for Bucking- ham Palace, which we saw in every part, and at which we were highly delighted. Then again, with regard to the Tower of Lon- don. Here this chevalier is equally romantic—to use the mildest term. {1 happens that this same Trish gentleman, Mr. Hume, was the medium of communication between us and Colonel Gur- wood, the friend of the Duke of Wellington, and Governor of the Tower. It is very true, however, that we inconsiderately admitted Wikoff to take a seat in our carriage, for he was always ready on every occasion to go sight-seeing, when he was certain that it would cost him nothing for carriage hire—when he would have nothwg to pay at the door—when any other person’s purse paid his way. On that occasion we saw a number of very curious things in the ‘Tower, notes of which we still have in our possession. Col. Gurwood accompanied us through all the diflerent apartments, explaining pass that which has been established between this cit and New York, by Mr. Francis Gorton, Mr. G. has reas ly gone into his work with the heartiest zest. He is inithiul, prompt and active beyond comparison, and trom his former connexion with the steamboats, knows all the pullies and wires, so far as the despatch and safety of mat- tera entrusted to him are concerned.—Providence Gaz. Aprit 20, every thing, and after ovr curiosity had been com- pletely gratified by the inspection of every part of the Tower, he gave us an elegant dejeuner a la fourchette in his own private apartment, formerly occupied, we believe, by Queen Elizabeth, Not only that, but the Colonel invited us to sleep a night the Tower, and said that he w with one of the best rooms w that carious fortress—a room that had once been occupied by Lady Jane Grey, or some other distinguished per- sonage; and, bat for our hasty departure from London, we would have indulged in the luxury of sleeping in the same room that had once contained | Lady Jane Grey, or Queen Elizabeth, or the sons | of Heary who were stricken out of life by the order of the inhuman Richard IT These facts, it is im- portant to add, we ean prove without reference to * the waiters of Long's Hotel,” as we happen to have the notes in our possession, and to which feelings of delicacy to those geatlemen prevent us from giving pubhesty Then as to visiting the gallery of the House of Commons. We believe we must plead guilty to this accusation. I rather think that Wikoff did accompany me on thet cecasoa, and procured an ordet of admission from one of the members whom he found at the door, But it was not on Wikofl’s account that the order was obtained, for he repre- serted to the honorable member that the Editor of the New Vork Herald, well known in both hemix- pheres, wanied an admission into the gallery of the House and the order was immediately given. So that my nanie even here was a pasport to Wikofl, aod | merely embraced this opportuaity of procur ing an admission, in order to save myself the trow- ble of calling upon the Hon.

He talksof having seea Mr.Macgregor, and ot that gentlemen saying that he did’at know me and was not aware of what position L held. Let me tell Wikoff that Mr. Macgregor kaew my position much better than he kaew hu. His pesition~ Wikofl 's we mean—was mach better known to “the waiters of Long's Hotel” than to any other individual. Oa the day that we dined at Mr Macgregor’s, when we were introduced in the drawing-room to his lady, she at once said—* Ab! Mr. Bennett, | know you very well—I have read your paper for years, and been very much amused and instructed by i!—it gives us the best account ot the U. States—I know you very well—sit down.” Without applying to “the waiters of Long's Hote!” | 4 for evidence to sustain us, we have merely to my that Mr. Macgregor, betore we leit London, a8 « proof of the opinion be had of us, for he knew our history very well, made us a present of half a dozen beautifully bound volumes, in gilt aad mereece, containing valuable statisues of English commerce and manufactures, many of them the result of hie own research and indastry. And all this without reference to “the waiters of Long's Hotel.” Mr. Macgregor also gave us a number of letters of in- troduction to his friends in Paria, which we found of much use, and for which we shall ever feel grateful to that eminent political economist philosopher. And this too without reference “the waiters of Long's Hotel.” This chevalier has not denied a single statement we have made in reference to Mr. Macready. He dare not. Because he knows that Mr. Macready will soon be here, and will set all that matter right before he leaves the country, showing what a re- mancer this Wikoff is. And to Mr, Macready we can appeal, and shall abide by his statement. And this too without reference to “the waiters o! Long’s Hotel.” As for the reference to O’Connell—all that wav perfectly understood in both hemispheres. The brutality of that man was not confined to us alone We happened to be included in the list of the high-| be est personages of Eurepe, commencing with Loui Philippe, King of the French, down to the modest and unassuming poet from Kentucky, William Wat. lace, Esq., Temperance Orator. In fact we regard- ed, and still regard that as rather complimentary, for the praise of O'Connell would only imply some contributions to his “black mail” fund, and be evideuce of scurrility on the part of those he praised, that would be utterly contemptible. , Thus we believe we haye answered theteheva- lier in every particular, and convinced every person who can read, of the gross misrepresentations, the ridiculous prevarications, the impudent assertions, put forward by this chevalier Wikoff. And we have proved them to be false without any reference to “the waiters of Long’s Hotel”—his only witnesses. We have given the most satisfactory evidence, and can give more, but refrain from doing it at present And we now leave it to any person of common sense, looking over the whole of this thing, whether in the language of Fanny Eissler, there ever existed “a@ meaner man” than this Wikoff? It is mos; amusing to hear such a creature talk of ‘his position,” whilst he has no position at all, natural or acquired. As well might the veriest loafer in the street talk of his “position.” And this too is all known to “ the waiters of Long’s Hotel.” When we arrived at Long’s Hotel, we very natu- rally inquired if Wikoff resided there, because we had always been under the impression, from his letters to us, that that was his head quarters, and we were astonished to find that he merely came there occasionally, and had all his notes and letters left there, but where he lived in London, whether in acellar or inagarret—at the East, or at the Wee, —we never knew—no one knew—and we doubi very much whether even “the waiters of Long’s Hotel” knew where he lived, or could testify as to his whereabouts. Gentlemen, into whose company he got, wondered where he lived, and often specu- Jated about what he was doing. The fact is, the chevalier was merely a sort of excrescence on the outer edges of fashionable society, and tolerated because of his harmlessness and occasional good nature. He was, indeed, we must say, very useful for knocking at doors—somewhat skifful in open- ing gates—tolerably fair in speaking to porters~ capital at calling. for carriages—very good at pick- ing up fans—still better at handing handkerchiefs —could generally tell with accuracy the time of day—was expert at running errands—good at find- ing out cheap shops, and driving to them in ano- ther’s carriage—and had marvellous self-command in addressing “ the waiters of Long’s Hotel.”* And this is the man, who with “the waiters at Long’s Hotel” as his evidence, is going to prove such tremendous things against us—‘ black mail” —‘‘extortion” and all that! We can show on the best of evidence that Fanny Elssler for all the good that we had done her, and praise bestowed upon her, and advocacy of her merits, about a year after she had been here and when she had nearly made her fortune of $60,000, on the birth of our son, sent a souvenir, a present—‘ black mail” as it is called, with a highly complimentary letter which we can produce. But this was no “extortion.” The remotest idea of that never entered the head of eitherparty. We never dreamt of “extorting” either from her or any other person, or accepting any- thing which did not spring from pure goodness of heart, expressing itself in a sotvenir as the token of the feelings she ‘had towards those who had be- friended her in a strange Jand. She paid the same compliment to other editors of this city, amongst whom we may mention Chevalier Galhardet of the Courier des Etats Unis. But whatever was offer- ed or accepted in this complimentary way, we can tell this Chevalier, that Fanny Elssler never paid our tavern bill—she never paid our tailor’s bill—she never paid our washerwoman’s bill—she never paid our hack hire—she never paid our fare on railroads and steam- boats— she never paid our wine bill—she never paid any of the other extras necessary to be disbursed by a distinguished gentleman travelling on distin- guished purposes through this great and mighty country. Can the Chevalier tell whose tavern bills she did pay? Can he tell whose etceteras, etcete- s she paid? Can he tellwho paid for the white kid gloves? Can he tell who paid for the big white opera glass through which to look at her dancingt— Jan “the waiters at Long's Hotel” testity to this? ‘This much for to-day—but more to-morrow, when the main question comes up— “whether a danseuse can exist without a donkey?’ Then the world will be on fire.
