EW YORK HERALD. New York, Saturday, June 6, 1844, N Tux New Barrish Currency Sysrem.—Stn Rosert Pes.’s Srsecu.—We continue to-day this important speech, which acquires additional inte- rest from the fuct, that according to the Boston Courier, the new idea adopted by Peel first origi- nated with sir. Webster in 1838—that it was re- cently approached upon by Mr. Webster in Tren- ton—and bids fair to be the new plan of national currency, shadowed forth by the whig address of the Clay clubs held at Utica this week. This plan involves the gradual dissolution of all state joint stock banks, and the establishment of a national system, under the authority of Congress. == Presidential Klection—Recent Whig Move- ments in the State of New-York—Devel- epement of new Principles. is now pretty generally conceded that the elec- tion for the next Presidency will be one of the most fiercely contested which has ever taken place in this country. It is also admitted on every hand, that the decision of the question between Polk and Clay will be determined by the States of New York, Peansylvania and Ohio—but most particu- larly by New York and Pennsylvania. Ia the South and South-West, Mr. Polk, in consequence of his being the representative of Southern and West- ern principles, will undoubtedly have the advaut.ge over Mr, Clay; but in the East, and in certain portions ot the North- west, Mr. Clay wili have the advantage, he being the representative of the opposite principles. The great debateable ground, therefore, remains in the Sates of New York, Pennsylvania, and, per- chance, Ohio, but more purticularly in the State of New York. It therefore becomes a very impor- taut matter to watch every movement in relation to the Presidency in this State, to record the develop- ments of public opinion, and to mark every step that may be taken by both parties. In this view of the contest we look upon the re- cent convention of “Clay Clubs,” at Utica, to be the first distinct, combined movement on the part of the whigs in this State, and in looking over the proceedings of this convention, in their organs, we find some remarkeble developments, both of theory and action, which cast considerable light on the subject. An address has just been emitted by this Con- vention, prepared by Horace Greeley, and purport- ing to give an acccunt of the principles and mea- sures supported by the whigs; and also a plan sub- mitted by Mr. Joshua N. Reynolds—a lineal des- cendant for aught we know of the immortal Sir Joshua, the painter—according to which it is re- commended that the operations of the whigs throughout the State should be conducted in order tosecure that result of success which they antici- pate. Setting aside a great deal of “leather and prunella” in these measures and movements, we make the following extracts from their address and plan of organization :— Srarement oy caxxp —In regard to the currency, we do uot say what precise measure may be necessary to re- store to the people of this Union the advantages of a cur rency which shall be of uniform value in all parts of the Uauon, and readily transmissible from any one to another —we do not say What agency can secure us against the dangers of over-issues of paper, which even now appear to threaten us, in detiance of our recent and terrible ex- perience. We do not prescribe to Congress the means it shall employ to attain the great ends of national benefi cence we seek. We do not doubt that, whatever may be Lie instramentality employed, every avenue to corrup tion and perversion will be carefully guarded, and every objection which experience may have indicated or a rea- sonable hostility may suggest will be fairly obviated, and very great improvements made on any agency of former times. But that, if paper currency is to be tolerated at all, it shout be practically one currency for the Union. and not twenty-six varying, fluctuating, inconvertibic currencies, governed in volume and character by local in terests and local caprices~that it shill be coptrolied watched over and guarded by nd that the Pre- nt shall aid by ois suggestions and co-operate with the tion of Congress in creating and secnring Treacy —not thwart, embarrass and hold to be the dict: policy, and of patr Puss vow aA Stare Oncamizatioy.—Resolved, That a Central Clay Committee, to cousist of three members, to central point in each county, be ap- ntion, whose duty it shail be to ta of org: g atich county, That it be recominended to such Committee to take prompt and efficient measures for wstablishing Clay Clu town and election district of their respective counties ‘That it shall be the duty of the Clubs so formed to take immediate steps for thoroughly orgauizing each election or schwol district within their respective jurisdictions, by pre ‘ing fall and accurate lists of the voters in each ict, enumerating those who are Whigs, those who are Loco Focos, ani those who are doubtful, in separa’e columns, and that they shall transmit copies of such lists to the Central Committees of their respective counties ‘That the lists so made out shall be digested by the Central Committees in each county, and the results transmitted without delay to a State Centra! Clay Committee, located at Albany, and to be composed of the follawing persons : Witus Havu, Rurvs Kine, Geonce W. Ween, THomas McExroy, Samucu N. Payn, and the officersof the Central Clay Committee of the city of New York. That it be the duty of the several County Committees and Town Clay Clubs proposed to be formed, to take all practicable measures to carry out and perfect their systems of organization, circulate political docu- ments, call public meetings, procuge competent speakers, and to adupt all.the necessary means to arouse public ention and call out the iull Whig vote of the State at That, relying on the nower of trath and tir argument, we hereby recommend to the ‘Whigs of this State to assemble as often as practicable, in mass meetings, for the consideration and discussion o! the principles and measures now presented for the verdict of the American people; and that we hereby cordially tender to our op; ta an invitation to assemble 0a all such occasions. e! tion —we ¢ of sound principle, of enlightened ty. charg approaching election Now with respect to the view on the currency system, we conceive it to be a very distinct and clear development of a new idea, which has been recently started by Mr. Websterat Trenton, and un- doubtedly intended to take the place of the ‘ obse- lete idea” repudiated by the same distingni hed gen- tleman in some of his speeches two years ago, in relation to the currency of this country. Whether Mr. Webster’s old ideas about a Bank of the United States be still retained by him, we do not know, but itis very evident that in the existing con. test, Mr. Webster's ideas are going to be adopted by the young whigs, and all those hard working men in the whig party on whose electioneering efforts wil! depend the success of Mr. Clay. This being the case, the views put forth by the “Clay Club Con- vention” at Utica, are quite novel in relation to the currency, and present in a very tangible form the important postulate, on the leading issue, whether in the arrangement of their new currency system that is going to be created and adopted by the next Congress, if Mr. Clay should be elected, it will not be assimilated in a great degree to the plan recently developed in England by Sir Robert Peel. The curious allusion in the address to whet it terms “twenty-six varying, fluctuating, incon. vertible currencies,” is evidently directed against the State bank system, against which the young whigs, it would thus appear, have commenced the war in earnest and at once. The meaniag of this is, that they prepose in process of time,to introduce anew system of currency in this country which will involve the total abolition and destruction of the “twenty-six varying, fluctuating, inconvertible cur- rencies, governed in volume and character by local interests and local caprices.” ‘This is precisely the system which Sir Robert Peel hastaken, aud we are extremely glad to see the whigs oceupy such ground. We are glad to see them thus early in the campaign come out clearly, distinctly, without any mental reservation whatsoever, against the present State banking sys- reconcilable with the just principles of financial science, as it is with the spirit and letter of the tem, We have always protested against this sys- tem. We have uniformly opposed it, as being ir- constitution itself. If Congress, under the consti- tution, have power to do any thing, it posseases the power to regulate the currency of this country, and to abolish all the contemptible State bank systems which prevails in the country, and which have been the cause of incalculableevil. It we had possessed a National Bank properly constructed, with separate departments, as indicated in the plan proposed by Sir Robert Peel, furnishing ® general currency, good all over the country, without any local cuy- rencies to interfere with or counteract it, we never would have witnessed the terrible disasters and gevulsions in commercial affairs whioh have cover- ed the land with desolation from one end of the Union to the other. Taking every thing, therefore, together, that we see around us—the speech of Mr. Webster at Tren- ton—the indications presented by Mr. Webster’s organ in Boston, the Courier, which has already intimated that Sir Robert Peel’s 1deas were pro- mulgated by Mr. Webster several years ago, and in the recentdevelopment of the “Clay Club” at Utica, we come to the conclusion that it is the in- tention of the largest, most effective, and the youngest portion of the whig party, to become “root-and-brauch-men,” in the occupancy of high Sround on the currency question, and the aboli- tion, in process of time, of the whole State bank system in this country, erecting on its ruins agene- ral system, on philosophical principles, growing out of the necessity of the times. In this view of the question, we hail with great pleasure the pro- jects and views of the whigs, and ardently trust that they may be enabled to carry out purposes so patriotic and so just. To accomplish these purposes, it will be neces- sary forthe whigsto elect Mr Clay, and with him a majority of representatives of a similar opinion, Fal! organization and the application of every just and proper means of operating on public opinon, will be necessary. The plan of a State organiza- ton proposed, is therefore good, and we trust that the young whigs, who have the business in their hands, will carry it cut to the fullest extent. They rust not suppose that their opponents, the democrats, are idle. They have a hard battle be- fore them. But if the whigs can carry New York and Pennsylvania, they will triumph beyond all doubt, and in this position we leave them to-day. The next two months will decide the contest. In that period the great weapons of argument and rea- son, will have full time to operate. The public mind will be made up. Hence the absolute ne- cresity of great—unwearied—uuceasing effort on the part both of whigsand democratstor two months to come, at the end of which brief period, the voters will have determined how to act at the polls, Crry Rerorm.—What is the reason that tne streets remain in as filthy a state as ever? The hot season is now upon us, and if some measures be notspeedily adopted for the cleansing of the streets from the accumulated filth, we may expect the breaking forth cf some plague from the nox- ious effluvia which is constantly arising all over the city. Weare every day inundated with let- ters complaining of the abuminable condition of the streets. Innumerable inquiries are made a3 to who are the street inapectors of the various wards, and if the Common Council do not, without any further delay, commence the work of cleaning the public thoroughfares, they may depend upon it that public dissatisfaction will manifest itself in a waynot to be mistaken.— There can be no shadow of excuse for suffering the city to remain in that disgraceful state which had, perhaps, more than any other cause, the ef- feet of exciting general indignation against the cor- rupt and inefficient rulers whose seats are now oc- cupied by the represertatives of the new reform party. The location of the city—washed by two great rivers—supplied with abundance of water in every street and lane—all render its cleansing a work of comparatively little difficulty. And yet we believe itis at present the dirtiest city in Chris- tendom. The universal outcry of strangers is— “God bless us, what a filthy city!” Once for all, we tell the Common Council that if they do not at once set about cleaning our streets, they may rest assured of being voted out of office at the end of the year, by a still more overwhelming majority than that which elected them. Then again, the regulation of the omnibusses, is an important branch of city reform, to which not the slightest attention has yet been paid. These i conveyances, instead of being public con- veniences, have become public nuisances. The comfort, the accommodation, even the safety of the limbs and lives of the citizens are enuurely dis- regarded by the proprietors of these vehicles. With a set, generally speaking, of the most stupid, igno- rant, insolent, and blackguard fellows that can be found for drivers, these omnibusses are the subject of universal complaint. If a person gets into one of them up town, heis dragged along at a snails’ pace, till the vehicle gets to Bleecker street, and there he is obliged to wait for five or ten mioutes, till one of the opposition line reaches the same point, when, off bsth omnibuases are driven at a gallop, endangering the lives of the pedestrians at every crossing as far as the Park. Then, at night, double the regular fare is demanded, in many cuses, by the drivers, and if the imposition be resisted, the passenger is overwhelmed with abuse and blasphemy. Now, everybody knows that this ought at once to be reformed. But not a single step has yet been taken to relieve the public from the excessive annoyance, inconvenierce, and dan- ger, arising from the abominable manner in which all the omnibus lines are at present conducted. Neither have we heard of the adoption of any measures for the suppression of the gambling houses—those horrible dens of vice and crime of the blacket description. The sharpers of Park-row and Barclay street are still seen lounging about the hotels and along Broadway, insulting respectable fe- males, and looking out for green victims. Abandon- ed women parade our streets in greater numbers and with more disgusting impudence than ever— crowds of the lowest loafers congregate about the joors of taverns in Broadway, and at the street corners in the evenings, so that respectable females, even when protected, cannot walk our principal thoroughfare without being annoyed, and disgusted atevery step. All this indicates the sad defects of our police system—or rather our total want of po- lice. What has been done to give us a police 1— Nothing. This is really very bad policy on the part of our new rulers. Do the members of the new Common Council forget thac they were elected for the purpose of giving us these reforms, apd freeing us from those evils to which we have thus briefly alluded? It they mean to retain their power and popularity, they must, at once, proceed to fulfill those antici- pations which thrir repeated declarations excited They must not occupy themselves solely in the dis tribution of “ the spoils.” We have all along given hem our aid. But that aid has been afforded to hem solely on the ground that they would give us muncipal reform in all departments, and deliver us from those accumulated evils which the corruption, misgoverment and incapacity of their predecessors, of both parties, had entailed upon us. Now, we call upon them to fulfill their pledges. We call upon them to give us clean streets—an effective police—and, in all respects, a vigorous, just, and efficient administration of the city government. Wixorr, Macrrapy anp Brack Matt.—Cheva- lier Wikoff, with his little “waiter of Long's Hotel,” in his white roundabout, isnot satisfied, it seems, with the niche into which we have al- ready placed him—-but he is fishing for more noto- riety. He asks why we have net brought Mac- ready into court after sending him a subpana ? We cantell him Macready begged hard to be let off; but he answered in a correspondence, and hasgiven under his own name, and has fixed the lie upon Wikoff, that will still further degrade that animal, if it were possible to find a lower deep in the? lowest deep. We shall publish this corres- pondence with Macready in a few days, andprove, for the fiftieth time, that Wikoff is one of the meanest liars that ever was kicked out of any lecent society into that of waiters, scullions, black-legs, and people of that sort. The “ Mac- ready correspondence,” now in our possession, will be a sort of appendix to the Wikoff corres- pondence—leading to the same results, and con- firming the same conclusions, Wait, Wikoff, you villget it sooner than you want. Og The Long Island Railroad, it is said, will be open the whole distance on the Ist of July; a day line runs to Boston, Tux New Yorx Tusr— Recent Great Race.—The excitement caused by the decision of the judges on the seeond heat of the great race be- tween Fashion and Blue Dick, which came off over the Union Course, Long Island, on Thursday last, has by no means abated, but time and calm consideration has made the interested, as well es the disinterested, think worse of the matter than at the onset, and the consequence of this considera- tion has been to make men consider the mere up- on what grounds such a decision could have been come to, and the result has been that some very ugly motives on the part of those who presided on that oceasion, or at least a majority of tuem, prompted it—but we do hope that for the credit of some of the parties concerned, whom we believe té-be gentlemen in every seuse of the word—for thte credit of the character of the New York Jockey Club—for the credit and welfare of the turf in this country, that some light will be thrown on this matter, for to allow it to rest as it now stands, is impossible, and yregoant with evils that must eventually destroy everything respectable that is connected with racing and race-horses here—sow dissensions between the most respectable portion of the community in the North and South—make the public so disgusted as not to place the least con- fidence in it, ortake that interest in its welfare which they have hitherto done, and cause the more respectable portion of the supporters of racing in this country to withdraw from it altogether Thee are events which every well wisher of the turt would deplore, and every disinterested, honest and rensarble lover of this truly noble aimuse- ment would by every means in his power even, if need be, at the expense of some his own private feeling and judgment. There were a great nnmber on the grand stand on this occasion who had as good an opportanity of noticing and watched the coming in of the horses as intently as the judges; gentlemen who may be found, as we before observed, among the oldes: and best supporters of the turf, uo rurther interested in the matter than a desire to see fair play. One ot these we have already named, whose opinions and testimony must be a host in itself. Another gentleman is also referred to, than whom we be lieve a more honorable man does not exist; then why are the opinions of two such men as these set at nought by the opinions of any other two? What are their standing in soeiety 1—who are they ?—how far are they interested, pecuniary or otherwise, in the matter —are questions which have been asked, aa must be answered ere the public will be satis- ed. revent, ittle of Brive Dick anp Fasuion.—We have been in- tormed that the owner of the latter horse has de- clined to accept the challenge of the owner of the former, in consequence of the decision of the judges on the Union Course last Thursday. He declared that he did not intend running the mare again this season. Crose or THE OrERA Season.—This takes place on Monday evening next, on the night of Signor De Begnis’ benefit, which promises, thus far, to be a brilliant finale to the season. The whole strength of the company will be brought out, with some ad- ditional attractions, including, we believe, the ele- gant Hungarian artist, M. Korponay, in one of his national dances and national costumes. Apropos, we perceive that some ignorant critic—probably “one of the waiters of Long’s Hotel”—talks of his costume as being part Italian—part Austrian— part this—part that. No such, thing. His cos- tumesare strictly correct—the existing or historical costumes of Hungary in the minutest particular. Country Excursions ror a Warm Day.—If you wish to be cool, quiet, taste a breeze, if any is blowing, and be served with the choicest retresh- ments, drive out to Prospect Hill, and call at Now- land’s. If you want to see the world of youth, spending their money and wit in fine style, drive to Burnham’s, to the Abbey Hotel, or Striker’s Bay. All these places are capital in a hotday. If you wish to see the whole world on their legs, go to Hoboken to-morrow, but make no riots, create no disturbance, otherwise yeu will be caught by some of the new police, who know a hawk from a hand- saw. Water Excunstons.—A most deliciouaand cool place is Clifton House, down on Staten Island, op- posite or near the Telegraph. Is is open tethe sea, catching every breeze that is going, and is high up in heaven enough to have pure air. Itisa new house, and kept in excellent style by Peiris, for- merly of New Brighton. Water Excursion ror CxarLpren.—By an ad- vertisement in this day’s paper, it is proposed to run a steamboat this afternoon down the harbor, stop two honrs at Fort Hamilton, and then return to the city. It is a capital idea. FasutonaB_e Resonts.—Saratoga,with all its ho- tels, is now open and ready forthe reception of vi sitors. Each of the large houseshas been burnish= ed up afresh—the fountains are sparkling—the weather delightful—the country heavenly—and all ready, even their little daily with lists of arrivals. Thurlow Weed, “the best of men,” is announced already as having arrived, witha long nine in his mouth, Belmont Hall, Schooley’s- Mountain, in New Jersey, is ready. This is a delightfully cool, airy, healthy place—full of the picturesque, and lively.— Try it. Correction.—Mr. Hunter, of Maiden jane, re- ported in yesterday’s paper as owner of ship Cal- houn, 1s not so, having never had any interest in said vessel. Our Burt’s Spexcn mn Boston.—Here it is, as reported inthe Lady Enthusiast and Transcript :— Ladies and Gentlemen—May you sometimes remember one whose feelings of gratitude always shall be synony- meus with the name of Boston. | never leave you — I don’t go.

Cuear Native —Turee Cents rer Horn.—The Central Hall, a new place of refreshment in the 14th Ward, Grand street, opposite the Centre Market, has just been opened, where one can get the “ native” at three cents per glass. This is said to be the great rendezvous of the new party. “Evgegant Exrracrs.”—Some saint has been extracting all the queer passages from the Bible, printing them and sending them te pious ladies Who could do it? Was it the same one who pub- lishes Dent’s Theology ? Navat.—The U.S. ship Macedonian was a Me- deira on the 23d of March—all weli. Canapa.—Our papers from Montreal are of the 4th ult. They give the annexed items: ‘The removal of the Public Officers is again postponed, excent those of Commissioner of Crown Lands, and of Surveyor General, ‘The Kingston Chronicle sayn that it has reason to be- lieve that before its next issue it will have ‘to communi. cate an important movement in the politicul hemisphere. Mr. Harrison, late Secretary and confidential agent to Sir Charles Metcalfe, has been in Kingston, and, it ap- pears, raited again ; in other words, he has separated himt self and fortunes from the Government, as at present nd- ministered, He returned to his former residence on Lake Ontario, near Oakville. Quwrte Warm Exovon —Yesterday was a very sultry day. Many like it would be far from agree- able. Sart Water Satmon.—A salmon was canght near the South side of Staten Jeland, yesterday morning. It weighed eleven and a half pounds. Unrrartans.—The Hartford Courier states that eflorts are now making to establish a Unitarian Society in that city, and also it is in contemplation to build @ Church which will cost $13,090, of which sum ‘aised. Half the amount needed is expected from the Unitarians in Boston. Sac anv Fox Inptans—Kiskekos, one of the principal chiefs, with thirty braves and sqynaws, be- longing to the above tribes arrived here this morning vem Keokuk on board the steamer Boreas, It was thei intention, as we learn from their interpreter, when start ing from their homes, to visit a portion of the tribe now on the Missouri, but they have since changed their minds, and have engaged passage back to Koekuk on the same boat, which will start to-morrow, It is anid that the mont perfect good feeling exista between the two tribes and that in their recent difficulties with the Sioux nation, they united as one band.

Driseoll was bi ‘up for further exa- mination on yesterday, when the witnesses, Carroll and Hendurson,were re-produced,and after answering some in- terrogatories, with a view to reconcile testimony taken on the previous day, the log-book was produced— aiso, the bill of luding. Alter a brief argument between Messrs. Barrett and Price as to the true construction of the Act under which he stood charged, the Captain was fully committed on the capital chargé, under the act 15th May, 1820, which im- ones as @ penalty, that any American ‘citizen who shall e found engaged in the hve trade, shall suffer death as a pirate. vanother Arvest. Immediately after the decision of the Commissioner, Deputy Marshal Walsh brought forward, under arrest, Bartlett Mansfield, the second mate, who, it appeared, had been employed under Captain Driscoll, on board the ship “Calhoun,” in this city, charged with having voluntarily served, and aided and abetted in the crime charged against Captain Driscoll. Manstield was arrested on @ Warrant prepared under the act 10th May, which prohibits the traftic in slaves under the mitigated penalty of $1,000, and imposes imprisonment for two years, according to the circumstances of the case. ‘the same Witnesses were examined to sustain the charge. The first witness aworn was 5 Josern Cannout, examined by Mr. Barrett.—The priso- ner told me, on our pussage to the coust of Africi about to keep a board: juse and to get marri return ; he said he would be able in time to navigate the vessel; | observed some caske of liquor; I remorked this to the prisoner, and that 1 guessed the object of the voy. age; when nearly half way on the passage, he told me the brig * Porpoise” was on the coast of Airica to receive us; Mansfield made no effort to get clear of the voyage ; he assisted in getting the slave deck on board; and was as active us any of the men about getting the slave uppa ratus on bosrd ; when we got to Cabenda, he was drunk ; and he remarked to me, “Joe, your words have come to pass, the old Hope has got her load at last ;”_ he then re- marked “that the Porpoise waa a nice comfortable little vessel ;” I saw prisouer and the captain, Driscoll, fre- quently converse together during the voyage : but I did not know the purport of their conversation ; the second mate was not paid off at Cabenda ; he was paid at Rio; he left Rio, in barque called the “Lucy Perry ;” [asked him to come to the (onsul; he bad some high words with me; | heard ate tell him “to sng dumb ;? he went before the American Consul, and Mr. Profit, the American Mini but would not give any satisfactory answer; Chuzotte also teld me on the passage from Victona to Cabenda, that we were going on efslave voyage, aa he had reasons to believe we were going on @ slave voyage trom whut he had heard in the cabin ; it is an unusual thing to see such intimacy between the cap tain and second mate of ships as 1 have neen exist be- tween them on the voyage ; the captain and the first mate bad a fight during the pessage,tand struck each other ; blood was spilt; the captain took an iron pin and was going to strike the first mate; he called him “a damned Yankee son of a b—— ;” the first mate told me this was in- tended as a slave voyageand desired me not to say a word as it 1 opposed them they would take my life; I replied | would take care of myselt; I saw the Portuguese take in the negroes, like so many sheep, and they used to cry out when every batch was placed on board; the Portuguese offered me 360 milreas to go on the voyage ; | am 24 years at sen, and was 9 years in the United States service Gustavus Cuuzorte testified that heJwas cabin boy from Victoria to Cabenda, that he remarked to Carrol that he suspected the vessel was going on @ slave voyage; he did not recollect hearing anything said in the cabin, but he grounded his suspicions on what he saw about the ves- sel, the casks, ; he saw a negro put on board be fore the Ame! lore left the vessel; the American flag was flying from the masthead of the “Hope” while the slaves wera taken aboard.

City Intelligence. Fine. -About half-past 8 o'clock last evening, fire was discovered in the third story of Nos. 43 and 45 Broad st., occupied by several firms above and below, which ex- tended to the second and first stores, in the tenure of Charles§ Iius and Zachrison & Co., consul for Norway and Sweden. A portion of the building was occupied by McCracken and Livingston,L. L. Britton, A. Begeden and others. Several tenements in Meekw’ court, in the rear, were also injured. ‘The store No. 41, occupied by Mait- land, Comrie & Co,, escaped uninjured inside, as also the store No. 47, The flames continued to burn until near 12 o'clock, owing to the combustible etate of the materials in the store, consisting o! cotton, bolting cleth, &c. We understand that the property destroyed was insured for about $10,000; but how the fire was communicated, no body had any knowledge at the latest time last evening.
