Ravivat oF laaeation. emigration from Europe to this country has place during the present year, since the setting iz of the spring, indicating, prebably, that during the present season a greater number cf foreigners will arrive in this country, with the view of making it their permanent residence, than during any previ- The great majority of these immigrants come, it appears, from Ireland; and the probabi- lity is that the recent proceedings in relation to Daniel O’Cennell, and the hopelessness of repeal, have been the causes of this increased tide of emi- gration to the United States, During the last year, it ie well known, that a great diminution took place in emigration from Ireland, and at the time it was generally attributed to the excitement of the “monster meetings,” and the repeal agitation. ‘We have been at the pains to make up the fol- lowing table, for the purpose of showing the extra. ordinary amount of immigration during the last ten or twelve days in this port alone :— —A great revival. in A st HeaLine THE Sic!

We give in another column a very important message addressed by the President to the House of Representatives, deprecating the rejection of the Texas Treaty by the Senate and bringing the subject before the House in any shape they please. It is very evident that the Texas question is assum- ing a very important position betore the country, and how it may affect the result of the Presiden- tial contest, or our relations with England, time alone can tell. Wart Sreeer Deverorments.—The develop- ments of the practices of Wall street, in the trial of Schermerhorn, were continued yeaterday. One of the most curious points that strikes us in these de- velopments is the systems of book-keeping which seem to be adopted by the monied companies of that avenue of fashion and folly. The chief re- commendation of these systems appears to be the facility with which they conduct those who prac- tise them, into bankruptcy, defalcation and crime. Mystery and fraud appear to be their grand princi- Tt is indeed most astonishing that men of property, of sense, and in other respects ot integri- ty, still continue to be under the influence of these delusions, which year after y: after the other, with increasing enormity. Another point is very striking. It appears by one of the witnesses that Schermerhorn confessed that he was led astray by Wall street speculators, or by ‘the fellows of Wall street.” are these Wall street speculators—who are these “fellows,” as they are termed? Ités very well known that the élite of New York fashionable so- ciety—and also of the house of God,—the givers of the finest dinners and the leaders of the grandest churches,—the most distingwe at the soirées—and the most devoted in the sanctuary,—those in fact who give the tone to fashion and piety, are these very speculators—these identical ‘ Wall street We have not a doubt that one-half, nay, that three-fourths of the demoralization of so- ciety, of politicians, and of all that we have to complain of here, originates in that avenue of fraud and folly, where make fortunes in a hurry, all moral principle is abandoned, and nothing is cared for by any one but the best trick to cheat his next door And yet these men, thus robbing and plundering one another—robbing and plundering the banks, the widows and the orphans, out of their property—these are the élite of our society— the directors of our public institutions—the dicta- tors of fashion—the guardians of the public morals; the patrons of the last revival preacher—these are the very men who build splendid churches and cheat the very architects whom they employ, and are guilty of abominations of sll sorts, enough te sink twenty Sodoms and forty Gomorrahs!

The/partors are large, and furnished in the most elegant manner, and the sleeping apart- ments are 60 cool, so comfortably fitted up, 80 hushed and quiet, that the most distracted head may here find undisturbed repose. The prospect trom the upper windows, on a moonlit night, is The silvery bay—thebold headlands of Staten Island, sleeping in the deep shade—the tall and gently waving trees on the high bank which overhangs the beach—the dark and frowning battlerfents of the fort—the dim ocean, in'the distance, stretching {ar way beyond the reach of vision, like Hope into Eternity—all make up a scene, which crowds the chambers of the spirit with images of overpowering gtandeur. Even in the minutest details, the fine taste an judgment of Mr. Reed are conspicuous. The out: buildings have been removed to a considerable dis- tance, and no longer offend the eye from the bed- rooms, looking inland. A back piazza will soon be added, and thus a cool and delightful promenade be afforded when the sun is in front of the building The fine garden affords a delightful play-ground for the children, for whom and their nurses a separate dinner table has been provided, where every atten- tion will be paid them, and which must prove a great addition to the comfort of families frequent- ing the house. Mr. Reed has also fitted up an ele- gant bowling saloon, with billiard rooms above. Amongst the out door amusements, we may also mention the parades of the artillery company at the Fort, which occur once or twice a week, and which pass an hour or two very pleasantly. Mr. Reed has also fitted up the large and com- modious building on the high bank, immediately on the margin of the bay, ai This is almost delightful residence—the sea dashing ud almost to the bed-room windows, and the view of the Narrows being quite unobstructed. Here the steamboats stop, and a bar has been furnished with the choicest refreshments. Here, in the coo) evening, one can sit on the verandah and enjoy, to perfection, one of Henriques mild Havanas and a glorious sea-view, presenting every ship that enters or leaves the lrarbor of New York. Another great and attractive feature is the num- ber of delightful drives in the neighborhood of Hamilton House. Along the bank of the river, one to Bath and Coney Island, across to Flat-bush —in every direction the roads are in fine order and Below the Fort, we must add, preparation has been made for a beautiful bathing- ground, equal to that at Rockaway, and far eupe- rior in point of air, health and comfort, as there are no marshes or malaria in any direction, The house, we need. hardly say, is managed in the best possible manner, and the table loaded with wines and delicacigs to touch every palate. Ina few days regular intercourse three or four times daily will be established between the house and the city by the steamboats—and to those who pre- fer it, or may occasionally wish to take that reute, we may state that the drive across to South Brook- lyn and down to the house is exceedingly agree- Junz 3.—Ship Qubec, control over twoor Clerk tor the ensuin; Jue 4—Ship Letitia Heyer, c Bark J.

Those from Liverpool and some of the Irish ports, consist of the Irish, who generally remain in the cities, much to their own disadvantage, becoming, by 80 doing, the tools of politicians and agitators, who carry on here on a small scale the same game that O’Connell plays on a large scale on the ether side of the water. Notwithstanding the furions declamation which has recently sprung up in hostility to the misdirect- ed movements of Bishop Hughes, and people of that class, every one must acknowledge that, in an economical point of view, the accession of a full grown population to any country, particu- larly to a new one with a large amount of is valuable to the ex- tent of the property, the health, the strength, capacity of the numbers coming in. Every full grown immigrant of goed health and strength and capacity, is equal to at least one thousand or fifteen hundred dollars added to the productive capital of the country. though a class of immigrants of that description may be # valuable addition to our population, they uffer a great deal from general ignorance of the country into which they come, and general deception practised upon them. the interior and demean themselves properly, fol- low industrious pursuits, and avoid all political ex- citement got up by the little O’Connell’s of the day, they will make themselves esteemed, respect- ed, and valuable in every point of view. But we fear that a spirit has broken out—parti- | cularly since the famous Carroll Hall movement of Bishop Hughes, that may be very injurious in its effects upon those poor people coming into this country for the first time. They will now be met with a spirit of doubt and suspicion, and perhaps hatred, on the part of a large portion of the citi- zens ot the country, principally growing out of political animosities recently introduced and go in- judiciously and foolishly fanned into a living and burning flame by the recent incendiary publica- tions of Bishop Hughes. |tween the Irish and the “natives,” growing out of the movements in ’41, had been allow- ed to subside, people might have forgotten the angry feelings then engendered, and mutual good will might have been restored.
