NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Monday, June 17, 1544. =— === = ews rom Evnore —We now daily ex pect news from Europe. The Acadia with advices to the 4th inst. is due and will probably arrive at Boston to-day or to-morrow. We witness with a good deal of interest the die- cussion on the question of the Turf, a# it i# con- ducted by the newspapers of both partes in this latitude and longitude of the country Wecannot, for the life of us, avoid being infiaitely amused by the peculiar and ecetatie degree of gnorance witl which they pu: forth theones utterly baseless in point of trath or f-ct, aad atterly mdvevlous in point | ef all practical utility or purposes of legislation or individea! ection The most avisy and vociferous of the tariff organs in thee part of the country are the New ke Tribune and the Courier and Pn. quirer. in former years the Courter and Enquirer had some practical good sease on this question, but ever since it Was secured for the interest of Mr. Webster for “ the enccession,” by an operation set on foot to extricate it from ite difficulties, it has gone, body and soul, into the ultra notions on the tanff question, and has not been a whit behind the absurdities, contradictions, and follies which mark and distinguish the Tridwne Asa genera! question perhaps, no one is opposed to a just and proper arrangement of the tariff laws, calculated to bearfit Amenenu manufacturing and other interests, so far as their provimons ean have any indirect influence on commercial and indus trial operations, The absurdity of imputing a de | sire to promote British untercats at the expense of | American, to all who are oot ultra in their notions | in this question , is palpable to every person ot c: mon sense, Yet we h no doubt that the erre- | neous impressions communicated to the public | mind oa this subject, have been principally fixed | there by eadeavoring to make a false issue in repre- | senting ao ultra tarifl as beaeficial to American | interests, and a wise and discriminating tardf ax) being in opposition to those interests and in favor ot | foreign. Such opinions are dishonest and fanati- cal—at least they partake to ® great extent of | those two characteristics / The whole history of the effects of tarifls of va- | rious kinds, shows that as a measure of protection, | a tariff law is very inefficient and very weak ; and | that its only protection is of a speculative character, | teading only on the imposition of a high duty on | some particular article, to improve the value of the | stock and goods of the special manufacturer, who | may happen to come under the provision of that law. But in other respects, a blind and inconside- rate tariff, enacted without reference to practical science, has frequently been shown by the com mercial history of some years past, to be extremely injurious to the very interests it proposes to support Look at the tariff of *42, and mark its effects already in commercial and other industrial opera- tions throughout this country. In consequence of the high duties imposed by that tariff on importe- tions, a vast surplus of revenue has already aceu- mulated in the government banks, and this aceu- mulation, instead of being beneficial to the eommer- cial or agricultural interests of the country, exercises on them the most deleterious influence imaginable. To this accumulation in certain banks may be ascribed the causes of the recent rise in speculation in New York, and the other principal cities of the Union. This has been the cause of the increased value of worthless stocks—of the diversion of a large amount of commercial capital from the pockets of the merchants to the coffers of the banks, which is employed in all sorts of worthless and ruinous ape- culations. But does this tariff increase the value of agriculturat produce? Does it add a single cent to the price of flour, or any other agricultural pro- duct? Certainly not. The whole of its operations, thus far, is confined merely to what are called faney stocks That is the only kind of product whieh it seems calculated to protect and foster, and, whicl we do not need to say, is the most worthless article of traffie, forming the staple of the operations of these speculators, who prey apon the industry and labor of the whole community at large. But the beneficial effects on agriculture or agricultural pro. ductions are not visible at all. It is the reverse. — For years past the value of agricultural pro- ducts has not been so low as at this moment, and the probability is that it will be still lower when the new crops come inte the market. In this point of view, based upon facts which cannot be denied, it will be seen that the present tariff thus far has been beneficial only to the specu- lators in the large cities—to the fancy stock jobbers —to the government banks--to all those who are connected with monied institutions; and that the agricultural laborer in every part of the country has been more injured and more cramped by the operations of that very law, which was trumpeted forth as being their great protector, than by any legislative measure ever adopted. If we were to go back and trace effects to their cause and relation to all those tariff laws, commencing with 1828, and going on to 1837 and ’39, we would find the same disastrous results growing out of the same partial, foolish, and visionary legislation. The tariff laws of 1823 and 1832 produced the vast overplus in the Treasury that created the whole derangement in the currency, and laid the foundation of those events which resulted in the terrible revulsion of °37 and ’39. By those injudicious laws, extracting more money from the people than was required for the wants of the government, the banks, first the U. 3. Bank, and then the State Banks, and after- wards the various States themselves, by reason of the distribution law, got hold of the surplus, and made it the basis of all the evils that have afflicted the country since that period. The tariff law of ’42 begins to produce the same results as those we have just described as flowing from its predecessors. We challenge discussion on this point. We are ready to satisfy all reason- able men that the statement of the eflects which we ascribe to the operation of this unequal law, is Correct to the very letter. Tue Execurive Movements. -We see that Mr. Ferris has been rejected. This has probably arisen from the hostility which the Senate bears to Mr. Curtis, the present Collector, who, if they had wished to retain Mr. Curtis, would not have re- jected Mr. Ferris. for, after the adjournment, the President will appoint a new Collector, and Mr. Curtis will walk the plank, and with him pro- bably two-thirds of the subordinate officers, We perceive that Mr. James 8S. Green, of New Jersey,—a very worthy man,—has been nominated as Secretary ofthe Treasury, and will probably not be confirmed. He isathoroughgoing Tyler man and a staunch democrat, and would probably facilitate the Custom House changes. It is curious enough to see how justice is meted out. John C. Spencer and Edward Curtis were, a year ago, the chief ad- visers of the President,—now, they are laid high and dry on the shelf.

Tue New Panty at Ory Tricks.—We have been considerably amused by a description, given vo the organ of the new party, of a grand “ frolic” which the city fathers had the otheriday. Leaving the filthy streets of the city—the wharves crowded with pickpockets—Broadway thronged with row- dies and lewd women—the omnibuses driving at fall gallop-and all the other evidences of good government behind them, the members of the Common Couneil made a pleasant trip to Randall's Island.

The little boy was the darling of the lo- way warriors; he was later their future leader; he was the hope of the old chief, and he who in after times was to assume the feared and honored ap- pellation of ‘White Cloud.” Clark had a son, of about the same age, and the youths, upon ashort acquaintance, became as good friends as their fathers. They fished, they hunted, they scoured the prarie, and traced the forest and shady ecene toge gether. But the young Indian felt the sympathies of his_ nature stirred within him, and true to the irre- sistible call of instinct, uitted the mansi: his father’s old friend, bade adieu to hi young associate, and took his journey into a far country.

After several yeare absence, his father, old ‘‘ White Cloud,” heard of the sojournment of his son—sent for and brought him back among his own people, where he remained honored and respected, and iu due time succeeded te the honors, ‘transmitted tothim by his sire, those conferred by the office of chief, as well as what he | Governor Lewis Clark, whose travels among the | ‘ rote Ome Cd lax vay —This morning # person RK of Bo iA inthe vec sel from New Providence in charge of the captain, i set of western Indians justly added by its graphic truth, 1300. and diversified sketches of that race to his high _— 4 repute, was more beloved by all the tribes he visit- ties ed than any other traveller among them, before or | Dul gy | in since.

We know of no boat so well calculated for this purpose ; she is the largest on the Western lakes, and most beau- tifully fitted up and furnished, the whole of the upper cabin forming state rooms; she is propelled by powerful low-pressure engines with the most mo- dern improvements, and every precaution will be taken to render those desirous of taking a week or two recreation—at the same time to get a more perfect knowledge of their native land, by visiting many of the most beautiful spots in it, but also others at once interesting from being the sites of some of the most important events in the agauired by his travels into “ foreign parts” him- selt. Many years elapsed, and Time’s changes were busy at work ; the good old man died; the young friends, far separated, forgot—one in the romantic and diversified attractions of forest scenery, and the other in the busy walks of civilized life—their early attachment, and ‘the days that they weni eypseyiug.” At last, by some happy freak of for- tune, they met, ani loboken was the scene of their interview. ‘* White Cloud,” in the midst of the excitement of the war dance, spied his early friend in the crowd, and with the unerring glance ot the Indian eye, knew him ina moment. Down went the hatchet; outstretched were his arms to welcome, and grotesque were his. gesticulations with delight to meet his early playmate. It was, indeed,a genuine outburst of natural,unsophisticated sympathy ; and few who witnessed it did not feel deeply, and derive a hightdegree of pleasing emotion at the whole scene. “ Te me more dear, congenial to my heart, + One native charm, than all the gloss of art.” _ While ‘ White Cloud” and his party remained in Philadelphia, they attracted crowds of wonder- we have met with for some time.

Instead of attending to their business they are at the old game of excursions—and frolics— and merry makings—-and spending the public money. Keally, we are sorry to see this. Our hopes of reform are fading away very rapidly. The new corporation have been in office for a number of weeks and yet not one great public mea- sure of utility or reform has been broached. Tur Sinews or Wan.—It is very well known, that no war can be carried on without plenty of funds, whether it be a real gunpowder war, « mock war—poli'ical or otherwise.

Frigate Hudson at the Navy Yard on Sa- turday turned out to be quitea farcical affair. For some time past she has been advertised to be sold at public auction, and the hour having arrived, a very formidable array of speculators appeared upon the deck of the noble vessel, among whom were to be seen Alderman (Hold Over) Shaler, Arcaur Welsley Benson, James Bergen, and last, though not least, Purser Christopher Columbus Rice, who was in expectation of something by the purchase, at a very low price, he having asserted a few days ago that she would be a di ar bargain at $500. Bids were brisk until $4,500 was bid by a gentle- man said to be from Hudson, who intended to take her immediately up to that city, there to keep her from respect to the aged frigate on account of her name, and probably to show the people coming in from the interior, what a great country this is, when, the crier announced that he bid $5,000 for Uncle Sam—that it was the only ene_ our patriotic sire would make, and any person wishing to give more should be the purchaser. This created a great sensation among the anxious speculators, all of whom expected to be the lucky ones at a much less amount, and bidding ceased, as by common consent, notwithstanding the warnings of the crier ; id when the last solemn gone was uttered, our much respected and venerable Uncle was pro- claimed the purchaser. Truly in this sale. Uncle Sam has become a Peter Funk, by whose advice and_consent we are unable to judge; whether Captain Tyler, his amia- ble son Bob, or the uneasy Navy Agent, who was present, we know not. - 5 Much Peter Funk-ism is practiced in this com- munity by defrauding in the sale of articles ; but this is a new feature in Peter’s business, that of humbugging the company and not permitting them to purchase upon their own bids, but, efter adver- tising an open public sale, to define the amount te be paid for a decayed and almost worthless shi: After this burlesque, Alderman Shaler facetionaly remarked to the gallant Commodore, that he would “ over” until he got out of the yard, slang of the day, the great contest for the Presi- dency.

This contest will, itis tobe hoped, be conducted on principles of common sense. The sooner the occupation of such political adventurers as those who levy black mail for the purpose of carrying on the contest, be gone, the better. Before the election of 1840, vast sums were raised in this way; but the people now see through this system of deception Tue Pumapetrnia Kiors.—The Grand Jury ot Philadelphia have fiuished ther labors om the re- cent riots.

During the afternoon a parcel of rowdies, not knowing that they were in paradise, got into a fight, which resulted in the selection of two champions—the forming ef a ring, and a regu- lar set-to. These champions stripped to the buff, and mauled each other in the handsomest manner, to the appareat delight of the friends of both par- ties. While this milling match, or Sunday services, was going on, a discussion arose in the crowd on the relative degrees of savageness as exhibited in the fighters from New York and White Cloud and his party now encamped at Hoboken. It was thought that the New York rowdies partook more of the savage race than White Cloud, but the die- comion in the matter will continue to-day, and be settled in the evening. White Cloud looked on the fight, gave a shrag of his shoulder, and thought that the euthorities in New Jersey had a curious idea of the proper mode of observing the Sabbath. | Avormen Sreavee anno Wonprnrut Imrorta- tion —Two infants—called the infant minstrels— or infant dancers—or infant humbugs of some kind, of extremely minute dimensions, arrived yesterday trom Leaden, the ship Europe, being the latest card sent oat by Philosopher Barnum, of the Ame- rican Museum, whe isso busy doing up Queen Vic- | toria aed the nobility of England.

Thus opportunity will be afforded to visit the rising town of Erie on the lake, proceeding from thence towards Cleveland, around Cunningham’s Isle to Monroe, up the Huron river to one of our grandest military posts, Detroit; and from thence into Lake Huron, running along some of those most beautiful islands, with which it is so delightfully interspersed, upto Fort Mackinac, and from thence down Lake Michigan to Chicago, which it is expected to leave on the following Tuesday, July 9th, and returning on the other side of each of the lakes to Buffalo. | i By this it may be seen that this most beautiful excursion will be completed in about a fortnight. affording to the admirers of all that is lovely and grand in nature, some of the finest views of the most interesting spots with which our country abounds; at the same time having a tendency to promote, what 1s so desirable to all after the vexa- tions and turmoil of business, health.

We have acres of forest remaining which add much to the elegance of the upper portion of the city, but which in a few years will be among the ‘s that ive were, and their places supplied with elegant buildings, highly cultivated gardens, and decorative yards.

ImproveMENT.—About ghty ears ago in tra- velling between New York and Quebec, it was ne- cesary to go to Boston und come overland to Burlington, on account of danger from the Indians, and the journey occupied about one month. Burgoyne made the first car riage road from the south end of Lake Champlain to the Huson, and after the peace of 1783, it took nearly a fort- night to go between New York and Quebec. The mail came in once a fortnight ; now it is daily, and it takes three days and two nights. ‘The commercial communica. tion, however, did not make equal progress. It was wait- ing ‘for the Chambly Canal, the progress of which ha» been but slow. We, hewever, see that transportation ix now effected betweeuQuebec and New York with only one transhipment, and no land carriage. The same thing may be done between Quebec and N. Orleans, by the St. Law- rence and the lakes, the Welland and Cleveland canals, the Ohio and the Mississipp1. There is only the obstacle of the Sault Sainte-Marie, to prevent steam propellers go- ing to the west end of Lake Superior, and the large steamers ‘have long run to the south end of Lake Michi gan. Thirty years ago, only batteaux and bark canoes went above Mont Custom-house duties and regule- tions are raising obstacles to an intercourse which they cannot prevent ; when it can be carried on tothe common advantage, it will overcome all obstacles. Of the extent to which a beneficial intercourse with New York may be carried on, we are not fully acquainted.— Quebec Mercury Rat.

She had on board upwards of 450 emigrants with their luggage ; it was disgraceful to see the manner in which they were packed in so small a boat, there being scarcely conveni. ence to carry 200 persona, with ng thing approaching to comfort.— Montreal Herald, June 14, Sports at tHe Sourn.—A duel was fought yes- terday near Terre Buf, in the parish of St. Ber- ard, ewan two plantera on the coast. The weapons cased were pistols, and at the first fire one of the parties was, itis said, mortally wounded. Another duel took place in the afternoon between two young Creoles near the Bayeu road.

The present number contains a very able and elaborate ne o1 “ Wisconsin and its Resources,” by Josiah Bond, of that State. It affords more’ information which we have every reason to believe to be correct, than | wi recollect to have met with before ; and to | the a who is about, or thinks of, taking up | his residence in this part of the States, the infor- | mation must be invaluable, and to such we particu- larly recommend its perusal. Democratic Revigw vor June—H. G. Langley, Astor House.—The first paper of the present num- ber is well worthy of the perusal of every democrat i ting as there suggested, and sinking all minor poi can they at all hope to succeed in the present movement. There are also some other me worthy of perusal; the sketch of Sydney Rinith, though prigcivally scissor and paste work, is at once interesting and amusing. Minnow Lrsrary, (No. 22.)—Morris & Willis, Ann street. This is about one of the best numbers of this work yet extant. It contains, “ Evenings in Greece and other Poems,” by Thomas Moore, and among the last will be found some of that ini most beautiful productions of recent times. the author says, “my chief object has bren to troducing the poem, “ Evenings in Greece,” greater number of persons to join in the perform- ance, by enlisting #s readers, those who may not feel willing or competent to take a part as singers,” and to musicians, reciters and readers, we strongly recommend the work. Ginnon’s Decuine ano Faut or THE Roman Em- Pree ; with notes by the Rev. H. H. Milman: Har- per, Brothers, New York.—The present number completes the third volume. One of the most u tul books in existence to the student and the torian ; the notes and references Sarna useful and valuable, and appear to have been the labor of a person of extensive reading and knowledge. Camrnent’s Forsien Semi-Montuty Revirw; Campbell, Philadelphia.—The number for June contains some well selected and ably written papers An article trom the Edinburgh Review, for April, upon the ‘* Memoires de Bertrand Barére,” is one of the most powerful pieces of criticism we ever re- on, to have met with ; and well worthy of pe- rusal, Litrett’s Livine Ack, (No. 3.)—Littell & Co., Boston.—This work maintains its character for. ae e brief paper entitled the “first offence,” is weil worthy of the attention of all, but. particularly those who advocate “the crushing of all offences in the bud,” without mercy or ferbearance. ‘Tue Mirror Tisrany, (No. 28 )—Sones ror THE SapwaTu, wy various autuors.—Morris & Willis, New York.—A most beautijul selection of some of the best sacred pieces of the most popular writers extant, and must be of extreme value to the more religious portion of the community. Harper’s Iunvuinatep and New Pictoriat Brste—No. 4—Harper Brethers: New York.—A most splendid work, and improves as it proceeds. It is well worth double the money charged, and deserving of extensive patronage. Suaxsrearr’s Prays, (Illustrated Edition )— No. 10—Hewett: New York.—A work of consid- erable merit, both as to execution of typography and illustrations.

This volume contains upwards of twenty of Lover’s best tales for 25 cents; certainly cheap enough as far as the text is concerned, but 25 cents too much us relates to paper and printing. It is to be regretted that good works are thus spoiled. Catuoric Famiy Braue, (Part 16 )—Sadlier, Carmine street. This pert, which completes the w Testament, together with a table of the Epis- tles and Gospel and Chronological Index, is very respectably got up and at a reasonable rate. It must be invaluable te those. who are forbidden the use of other translations of the Scriptures. D’Ausione’s History or THE Great Rerorma- tion Revigwep—By M. J. Spalding, D. D.—Mur- phy, Baltimore.—No lover of truth, whether Pro- testant or Catholic, should be without a copy of this work, particularly those who have read D’Au- bigne; indeed, it ought to accompany that werk in every instance; the readers then would have an opportunity of seeing both sides of this very impor- tant question. The work is well got up, and the notes and references evidence a mind extensively read in the literature and history of the times of the Reformation, and will be found of great utility to the theological etudent. Tue Porms anp Batraps or Scuiuuer, trans- lated by Sir Edward Lytton Bulwer, Bart—Harper, Brothers, New York.—We believe it will be ac- knowledged byerery, reader and admirer of the works of Schiller, that a translation of this great poet’s effusions could not have fallen into better hands; indeed, the best. German writer of the present day award to this translator the greatest meed of praise for such pieces as have from | time to time appeared in Blackwood’s Magazine, ; from his pen®as being the most correct in conveying | Schiller’s ideas as well as his words. There is also attached to this volume a very interesting and well written biographical sketch of Schiller, in which vast additions are made to the information of late years respecting this great Suabian poet. No lover of poetry will be without a copy of this book. It is well got up, and in every respect does Harper, Brethers credit. Music.—Our friend Christman, of Pearl street, appears determined that the good citizeus of New ork shail not want for good and varied music in quick succession. We have now before us, ‘‘See Ni ‘Ten th mand ladies at lenst io’s Ganpen.—Ten t permand laden 2 rope.

One young lady and gen- tleman, whose skin and face were truly lagusting with eruptions and freckles, and the Italian Chemical Soap cleared it; and one cake, too, also changes the color of sun burnt or yellow skin to ahealthy clearness. We ourselves can speak from using Jones’ Coral Hair Resto- rative. Our hair was talling out and filled with scurf, and this entirely remedied it. It has been used by the first merchants of our city, who tell us it does certainly make the hair grow, and gives light, red or grey hairafine dark look.
