THE NEW YORK HERALD. Vol, X., No, 190—Whole No, 3799, Another Splendid Weekly Herald, ILLUSTRATED WITH NUMEROUS ENGRAVINGS Scenes of the Mormon Riots, Ill. MURDER OF PROPHOT. The remarkable success of our last illustrated Weekly Herald, has induced us to make another attempt of a similar description for next Saturday, which will, we think, surpass anything we have yet done. Our designers and artists, five or six in number, have been engaged in preparing a series of graphic and elegant engravings, Illustrative of the recent terrible riots in Illinois, which ended in | the assassination of Joe Smith and his brother, the Mormon leaders. These illustrations will com- prise all the principal incidents in the deplorable events which have almost disgraced Illinois as deeply as the recent outbreaks have disgraced Phil adelphia. The first engraving will be a correct representa- tion of the scene presented on the destruction of the office of the Nauvoo Expositor, under the au- thority of Joe Smith, the Mayor of the Holy City. This, it will be recollected, was the leading cause of the subsequent proceedings which resulted in the murder of the Prophet, and which may yet lead to the expulsion of the Mormons from Illinois, | in the same manner as they were driven from Mis- souri. The second engraving will represent the assassination, presenting the crowd round the jail, and the Prophet in the act of falling from the win- dow, after receiving the bullets of his enemies. ‘The third scene illustrated will be the arrival of the dead bodies on the high ground at Nauvoo, the procession winding rouad the Holy City, with that in the back ground in perspective. The fourth en- graving will represent the imposing scene presented on the delivery of the funeral! oration and the burial of the slain, at the Holy Temple. All these illustrations have been designed by our artists from accurate sketches taken on the spot by persons familiar with the localities, and who were witnesses of the scenes represented. They will be accompanied by a full and accurate historical account of all the incidents connected with these events, from the first debate in the Council at Nau- voo relative to the ordinance against the Expositor, down to the burial of the Prophet. This descrip- tion has been compiled !rom the accounts of papers of all parties in that region, so that the impartial reader willbe able to forma correct opinion of these barbarous gnd atrocious proceedings in the half-civilized State of Illinois. This magnificent illustrated Weekly Herald will be ready at 9 o’clock on Saturday morning next, in order to be in readiness for all who desire to trans- mit it to their friends in all parts of Europe, by the “Great Western.” There will be other engravings besides those we have enumerated, but the price for the whole will be only 6} cents for a single copy THE ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY HERALD, A FOURTH EDITION REQUIRED! Wonderful Success of Newspaper Literature. BY ADAMS ‘& CO. ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMSHIP HIBERNIA, 4£T Boston. TWELVE DAYS LATER NEWS FROM EUROPE. Arrival of the Overland Mail, IMPORTANT COMMER CIAL NEWS FROM INDIA. ADVANCE IN COTTON FRENCH WAR IN MOROCCO!!! Fashions, Markets, &c. &c. We received at six o’clock yesterday morning our London and Liverpool papers to the 4th instant, brought by the Hibernia, which reached Boston on Wednesday morning. The Hibernia was telegraphed at a quarter to 5 in the morning, and arrived at the wharf about 6 o’clock, thus making the passuge in twelve and a half days. Had it not been tor the storm of Mon- day she would have arrived on Tuesday evening, making the quickest passage on record. Cotton has gone up an eighth. This rise was between the 22d ult. and 4th inst. The news from India, it will be seen, is impor- tant. The Caledonia arrived out on the 29th, in 12) days from Boston. Professor Risley has created quite an excite- ment in Paris. It will be recollected the Baring Brothers were some time ago indicted for some alleged fraud in Mexican Loans. Since then they have been tried and honorably acquitted. The rejection of the Texas annexation treaty by the Senate of the American Congress has been the subject of much comment in the English journals, and the account has been received with general and unqualified approbation. Though such a re- sult was anticipated, so large a majority was scarcely expected. Tue Great Barratn.—This vessel was adver- tised to sail on the 11th of July. As, however, she still remains in dock at Bristol, and.the attempt to obtain her liberation cannot be immediately made, the day of her sailing for New York is indefinitely postponed. Since the 22d ult. the following New York packets have arrived at Liverpool:—QOn the 22d the Cam- bridge, packet ship, Captain Barstow with New York dates of the lst June. On the following day the Sea, Captain Edwards, with papers to the 3d inst. On the 27th the Tarolinta, Capt. Smith, with dates to the 5th, inclusive.

The manner in which thia illustrated Weekly Herald has been received by the public has asto- nis ed even us, who were long since prepared to be astonished at nothing. Many attempts have been heretefore made to establish pictorial papers in this city, but from their invariable want of suc- cess, the poverty of the effort, want of talent and genius in managing it, it was supposed that such a thing could not be made to succeed here. We have shown, however, that such a paper, if proper- ly got up, is certain of receiving ample patronage and eupport. One of the most curious results of the popularity of this paper has been, thata great proportion of the recent sales have been amionggt the Irish—the most pious and determined followers of Bishop Hughes, who bought the beautiful illustrated Herald in the very face of his bull of excommunication against all who would touch or look at the Herald. ‘We mean to continue at proper intervals, and as occasion may require, the publication of Mus rated Weekly Heralds. We have four or five artists al- most constantly in our employment; and we are prepared to give graphic illustrations of the pro- grees of society, and all important events in the most expeditious, accurate, and graphic style. As soon as the excitement of these riots is over, we shall enter on the work of illustrating the manner in which the two great parties are conducting the Presidential contest, by means of engravings, of the beauty and excellence of which no one can form any conception until they are published.

The demand for British manufac- tured goods had been somewhut checked. One oi the accounts states, that the American merchants were most persevering in their effurts to dispose of manufactures received from the United States. During the imprisonment of O’Cennell, the “rent” keeps up to the mark, and the excitement of the peo- ple appears to be at fever heat. The Catholic cler- gy have set Sunday, the 28th instant, apart, as 6 day of general humiliation and prayer for the incar- ceration of the Chief. A slight sensation was produced in the French Capital recently, by reports of domiciliary visits having been paid by the police to the Duke D’Es. ears, M. do Lepinaye, and other distinguished roy- lists. Nothing important resulted from these vi sits. The London papers have been discussing with more or less acrimony, since the sailing of the last packet, the mutiny among the supporters of the ministry, arising out of the sugar question. The ‘Limes and the Morning Post rail furiously at Peel. Lord Heytesbury has been chosen to kucceed Earl De Grey as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. The party organs opposed to the present ministers ad- mit, that, looking to the range of choice, this is as unexceptionable a nomination as they could have made. The intelligence from Algiers is more favorable to the French arms, but it 18 still far from being de- cisive. The French King, it is now said, will not visi Queen Victoria until September, and then only in a very modest and unpretending way. Another conflagration had occurred on Chat Moss, in South Lancashire, which at one time threatened serious consequences to the Liverpoo) and Manchester Railway. Disturbances among the cotton manufacturers in Silesia and Bohemia on account of attempts to reduce the wages of the workmen still continued ut the Jast dates, although efforts had been made by the government to suppress them. Accounts from Spain mention several frightful robberies near the passes of the Pyrenees, where very little law appears to exist, éxcept the ancient law ot the strongest. The Galties mountains in Ireland were on fire at the last accounts, for hundreds of acres together. Galtimore was on fire to the very top, and ineflec- tual efforts had been made to stop the progress of the flames by digging trenches, in which labor thousands of people were employed. The Drama has not for years been at 80 low an ebb in Great Britain as it is now. Earl Grey has fully recovered from his indispo- sition. It is reported that the present session of Parlia- ment will be brought to a close about the middle of July. A Dublin paper says—The weather through the island is superb ; we have plenty of rain, sunshine and heat, and the promise of harvest is decidedly favorable. The Dublin bakers presented a ponderous loaf, weighing sixty pounds, as an accompaniment with the addresgto Mr. O'Connell. The fishermen of Galway sent him a splendid turbot, with lobster and salmon to match. It is now settled that the Count de Trepani, a brother of the King of Naples, isto be married to the Queen of Spain. Official advices from Sierra Leone announce the capture of five slavers, four of them Brazilians, by the British cruisers. In one of them were em- barked 546 negroes, of whom 128 died on the pas- sage. ‘The stable of a priest, in the county of Kilken- ny, was entered a few nights ego, and his horse’ ‘tail cut off, and a string of repeal buttons attached to the stump, follows:—In the Crown reservi NEW YORK, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 19, ————_——=—== Mr. W.

A gang ot men from Szalonta fell upon the nobles who sup- ported the candidate, and wounded several of them severely. The attack was afterwards repeated, and the interference of the military rendered ne- cessury to restore the quiet of the place. Two Prussians have been apprehended at Liver- pool, charged with being extensively engaged in smuggling tobacco, and large quantities of the article had been seized. Tobacco smuggling ap: pears to be more extensive than any other contra- band trade. H. M. B. Rapid, of ten guns, Lieutenant Earle, commander, lias, it is reported, been sunk, with all on board, by a Spanish slaver of greatly superior force, , Lately two smart shocks of earthquake were felt at Comrie and Crieff—the motion of the earth trom west to east. Latest accounts from New South Wales repre- sent commercial matters as suill of a gloomy char- acter, nearly every department of trade being ina most distressed state, and business almost totally suspended. | From France we have accounts of another skir- ish with the troops of Morocco, and of the de- parture of the Prince de Joinville with a powerful squadron, for the coast of that country. | Bririst Paruiament.—-Another troublesome bject has been got rid of for the sessivn, viz: ¢ anti corn motion, brought forward by Mr, Vil- hers, and which was negatived after two nights’ lebate, by a majority of 204. The Bank Charter Bill has also made considera- big progress ia spite of a large opposition. | The practice of opening letters at the post office, which was brought betore the House of Commous three weeks ago, has been again under discussion in both Houses of Parliament, | The Rev. Dr. Murray, and the other titular archbishops in several parts of Ireland, have direct- éd ‘prayers to be offered up in all the chapels of their diocese for Damel O’Conneil, on Sundays and holidays.” . It is announced at the Cape of Good Hope, that ee eminent French and Swedish naturalists, essra. Delgorgie and Wilberg, had been murder- ed by the natives in Matzihkatze county. Runaway matches are more frequent than ever at Gretna, Upwards of 300 have taken place this geason, When the Railroad from Calais to Paris is com- pleted, the whole distance trom the metropelis of England to the metropolis of France may be done in twelve hours In Belgium the receipts on the railways in the first four months of the present year amounted to 2,984,000 francs against 2,181,000 france in the four corresponding months of 1843. In the quarter ending 5th April, 1843, the quan- tity of tories wool entered for home consumption was 4,648, ibs., in the same quarter in the pre- sent year the quantity so entered was 9,697,805 Ibs. ; and yet, notwithstanding this large increase, amounting to about 120 per cent., the English furm- er is obtaining at least 25 per cent. more for his wool than he received last year. We learn from Warsaw that the Emperor of Russia has just granted to several exiled Poles per- mission to return, and to enter imo possession of their property, which had been confiscated. The Queen has been pleased to approve of Joseph R. Croskey, as Consul at Cowes, for the United States of America. American Ice.—One cargu of American ice has arrived from Boston this week, which has found its way to the eetabiighment of our excellent friend Mr. Lynn, of the Waierloo Hotel. Ochers will ful- low, and a constant supply will be kept up during the summer. This American ice 1s of the mos: beautiful quality, and at the present season a greater luxury cannot be imagined.—Liverpool Chronicle, Jume 29, ; We learn from the Bristol eye from pri vate quarters, that it is likely the ck Company will widen their gates to fifty-two feet, which will enable the giant of the deep, the Great Britain, to pass out, and other useful ones to come in. The Queen has been pleased to approve of Elisha Hothaway, junr., a Consul at Hobart Town, Van Diemen’s Land, tor the United States of America Loss or tng Steamsuip MaNcuEsTER aND Twen- ty-E:ant_Lives.—This vessel, sa:ling between Hull and Hambuig, has been lost, with every sou! on board. She lett Hull, under the command cf Captain Dudley, onthe 10ch, with a miscellaneous cargo, and, on arriving on the opposite coast, struck on the Marle Sand, on the const of Holstein, about twenty-five miles from the shore, during a hurr cane, and became a complete wreck. The sand are described as furmed of quicksands, and are said to be as formidable to the mariner off that coast as Goodwin on the English shore. The aumber of persons who perished by this catus trophe is twenty-eight, twenty-two of whom form. ed the crew, the remainder being passengers. The passengers were Mrs. St. George Smith, Mise Emily Smith, her daughter, Mr. St. George Smith Mr. Rocherby, a wool merchant of Leeds, Mr. Frost, of Manchester, and one unknown, The Joss is ascribed by some naval men to want of judgment. The value of ship and cargo, it 1+ said, exceeds £25,000. The weather throughout England, since the sail- ing of the last packet, has been, generally epeaking, favorable to vegetation. In most parts of the coun- try considerable quantities of rain has fallen, and in some localities heavy thunder-storms have been ex- perienced ; but from the long continuance. of the previous drought, moisture in almost any shape was acceptable, Conpition or THe Queen.—The London Court Journal has the following :—Arrangements will be made, in anticipation of the accouchment of our be- Joved Sovereign, which will take place at Windsor Castle, for intelligence to be conveyed to London, by means of the galvanic telegraph on the line of the Great Western Railway, between Slough and Paddington, which will enable information to be Spe and telegraphed from the royal residence at Windsor to Buckingham Palace, and the town residences of the ministers and the public offices at Westminster, in the short space of less than twen- ty-five minutes! This rapid mode of communica tion will be thus easily accomplished—a horse and groom kept constantly in readiness to start at a mo- ment’s notice, will reach the telegraph office, at the Slough station, within 11 minutes from the time of starting from Windsor Castle; and thence inform- ation will be telegraphed to Paddington in a few se- conds, From Paddington, grooms, with horses kept constantly saddled, will proceed with written slips of the telegraphic announcement to Bucking ham Palace,and the residences of thegmimisters and other official personages. ‘ i The distance from the Paddington terminus to Buckingham Palace will thus he aceomplished in twelve or thirteen minutes. In the event of a telegraphic communication being opened between the Round Tower of Windsor Castle (which is perceptible atfthe galvanic telegraph office) the time occupied by a messenger proceeding on horseback from the Castle to Slough would be saved, and in- formation, under these circumstances, would reach Buckingham Palace or Whitehall within a quarter of an hour of its being despatched from Windsor. Special irains will be constantly kept in readiness at the Paddington terminus, to start at a moment's notice for Slough. Thus, it isquite possible for the great officers of atate to arrive at Windsor Castle, trom Westminster, within considerably less than iwo hours (indeed, within about an hour and a half) fem the period of a summons being despatched rom the residence of the Severciga at Windsor. Tur Canapa Company.—On Thursday, June 17, the hall-yearly meeting of the proprietors of this company was held at the Canada House, St Helen’s place, for the purpose of declaring a divi- dend, and upon other matters. The Governor, Mr. Charles Franks, took the chair. Mr. William Wileon was elected a director, in the room of Mr. Stokes, who had resigned. The Governor intimated that this was a meeting valled to consider of a dividend, pursuant to the terms of the charter. A fuli statement of the ac- counts of the company had been made at the last meeting, but he would give a statement of the sales of land that had been since made. They were as under the, old lan, 4883 acres, and on lease acres; in the Huron tract, under the old system, 8152 acres, and the present year, up to the 25th of Mey. The sales ad been less in the corresponding period of last year, there having been geome technical formalities to be carried out under the new system of leasing. In the collection of monies due from settlers, bow- ever, avery considerable increase had been caused ; there having been realized £15,062 up to the 25th ot May, against £7222 up to the sume period of last year. ‘This had principally arisen from a favorable market having been found tor Cenadian grain, flour, and other produce in this country, under the fate act of parliament. ‘The umportations this year would show a considerable increase. ‘The subject of emigration and colonization was one of great moment to this country, und, in this respect, the iterests of the company and Great Britain were identical. The Governor reterred to the proced- mgs of the corporation from its commencement down to the present time, and stated that every posvible facility had been given by it to the exten- gion ot agriculiure in Canada. The jeasing system 4s introduced by the company’s commissioner, Mr. Widder,had been saticfactory to the colynist. In the event of the home harvest proving deficient, large supplies ot grain and flour would ye received, as the prospects ef the agniculturists in the colony were most satisfactory (hear, hear). Not an_ex- tensive emigration was expected this year to Can- ada from the mother country ; but from the U ited States aud Germany many excellent setilers were expected. In the former there were many German sellieray but they wereoecounng dissatictied with tne tnstututious of the country, aud hence were set- ding in Canada. Means were taking to: facilitate be Heh fiom Germuny to the western parts of januda. “That a dividend The Chairman then moved, for the halt year, ending the Toth of July next, at the rate of six per cent. per annum be declared,” ' ‘The resolution was vgreed to ; and, alter thanks had been returned to the Court of Directors, the meeting adjourned. | Opinion or 11& ENGuisu GovernMENT Press on tHe ForeiGn Pouicy or tHe Usirep Srates.—We fake the fuliowing extracts irom the two leading and almost the only London papers of the English government. They give the views of Sir Kobert Peel im brief. {From London Standard, July 1) ‘The President's Message accompanyiig the explanato- 4y papers telis nothing that was not known before ; name- ly, that that gentleman was very anxious to enlurge the ‘omeréa of tue republic which he governs, and neither very deliberate ner very scrupulous in the stepa to which he resorted, For the rest, the Message is a kind of concio ad popwlum, cailing upon the popdlace of the States to ne- Couu hi Views,and override decision of the Senate. Theie one position of Mr. ‘Tyler's, however, that will sturtle She politicians of the old world. We, at this sille of the Atlantis, have, ecco.ding to the P: lent, nothing todo with American affiirs, wuich must be ieft altogether to the disposul of the United states. | Great Britain, Frauve, Prussia, Austria, &c , have reason to be'grateful, uo doubt, for the rigid rule, which the Re publicans save prescribed to themugives not to interlere tn the nationnl concerns of Europe. It in true that c:r- tain contributions to the Repeal rent, and meetings and re- solutions in the States respecting Repeal, may be thought ‘a slight departure trom this stern reserve ; but it is to be presumed that the President knowé nothing of those things, though it happens sumewhat awkwardly tnat his own sun has been preity nearly tue most active and violent incendi ary in promowng the subscriptions, meetings, and resolu. tions reterred to. We would, however, here observe that the government of the United States has @ reason for ot concerning itself in European politics, which does not apply un the other side. ‘Phe United States have not a tuot of ground in Europe, or indeed in the whole of the obi world Whereas Great Britain possesses an extent of ter wLory in North America tar greater than that occupied, ¢r even ciaimed, by the States. ‘These British possessions are not tuily peopied at present, Lut wait—ia a namber vt ears, Which will be but an inconsiderable period in the Ye of nations, these possessions may be, und doubtless wilt be at least as thickly inhabited us the Staves, and sure dy Great Britain bus a right to bestow some attention upon the infaney ot such w mighty nation.

Nor ia thia sli The fate of Texas, the country about whicr the dispute has arisen, is intimately coudected with the dustiny of the West India lslands, much more intimately connected tian it ia with the prospects of the United States ; and as the greater in number and value of the West India Is'ands beioug to Great Britain, Great Brituia would seem justly clam w voice in the disposal of Texas. We wusi, therefore, respectinuy protest agamst Mr. ‘Tyler's claim Ww at Absoiliie Mad EXGlUsdve autiority in Novth Americau affairs. 1¢ goes much further than anything Napolvan ever attempied in Kurepe. (From the London Marniag Herald, July 1) On Saturday Morning the Caledonia steamer arrived at Liverpool, after a passage across the Atlantic of only ten days; another extraordimary feat of that power of raped ¢oinmunicaiion, the etlect of which upon the social reiw tions of mankind, 18 aa yet but very impsrtectly apprecie ted. We learn by the advices brought by the Cuiedony that (he anaexation of ‘Texas treaty, was rejected in the Seuate by w majority of 3610 10. This event was the tuiet topic of discussion in the Stutes when the Caledonia way. @ rejection of the treaty scarcely comes upon us by h we not anticipate the great majori- ty by which the ep ent has been rejected, still leer the extraordinary policy by which, as it i ‘the Presi deat is trying still to force the measure upon namely, by exciting an antiEnglish cry init would appeur that in the United States, as in another coun try somewhat nearer to us, whatever of unjust or unren- sonable is urged, is to have ite principal support from the feeling of jealousy or ili-will towards England, Wi ot course, Quttere! by this unwilling tribute tot acter and policy of our country, which always con. pects hostilicy ‘te England, with hostility: to fair deal ing and. common sense ; but we confess ourselves at a Joss tu guess the foundation of even so much ill teeling towards this country as may serve to supply a suppor loany course, god or bad, sm the United States. What have we said or done to move the choler of any portion of our trans-Atlantic kinamen? Our newspapers ure complained of; and it is held out as one of the ele ments of the President's hope ef success in carrying his Texan project, that, during the summer months, the Eng- lish newspapera will more highly irritate the American people, It is not, however, more easy to comprehend the rounds ot this expectation than the original hostility — We see no disposition in any rection uf the English press either to insult or to propose to injure the peo ple of the United States. Except, indewd, upon the jay of the arrival of the American mails, or the day aiter, or in an extreme dearth of rews the British journals scarcely advert to American affeirs. And we will venture to say, that when they do concern them ives with occurrences in the United 8 their tone an that which these latter employ towards one It is, however, we feel, too true, that there is o growing bad feeling towards this country in the common: wealth; but to what to ascribe it, if not to the remarkable prosperity of the British empire, and to ite steady, Gentle, efforts to advance the freedom, moral improvement of the whole race of ultogether at a loss. Meanwhile, the inti tion that doe: not contemplate war is the sillest and moat contemptible thing in the wofld ; it sacrifices the chief blessings of without holding ont any prospect of the advantages that the rude alternative of war sometimes presents to dazzle and mislead Bat what could we gain ny going to war with the United States, or what can the States gain by engaging in a wer with us? They have nothing that we would take if offered as free git—we have nothing thet they can take, even should they be #0 foolish as to desire further acquisitions of territory. And then what would be the first effect of a war? (we speak only of effects independent bf military success on wither side, because we would say nothing to wound the selflove of our kinsmen ; but) what would be the firat commercial effect of a war? Would it not be to de- prive the States at once, and for ever, of twenty mil- or thereabouts, which we pay for their We way at once and for a 1@ difficulty in proving that the oss would. be per- manent as well as immediate. That the cessation of the cotton import trade from the States to this country would instantly follo declaration of war, needs not to be proved by argument ; but then our own cotton mannfac- tures must still be carried on, and the supply of the raw material must be bad from other countries. There would he no difficulty whatever infobtaining this supply, and Kenerally from countries free from the taint of sav: our own Indian possessions among others ; bt trade once opened ond established, the people of F would never consent to fall back upon slave labor cotton, when they could have cotton the produce of free labor, Even now we heer many complaints upon this subject. it is said, with too much reason, that every od mortgagee of acotton estate-—every proprietor of a Misnis- sippi bond, %o,—every man, in short, who accepts a bill from the cotton states, is virtually a slavetrader, The same may be and is of the tobacco trade, and of some other trades in similar circumstances. The commercial connection is, however, formed in these trades, and it is properly considered that in xupport of an abstract princi- ple, how excellent soever, this connection ought not to be violently broken. But let itbe once broken, aa war would break it, and it will never be renewed in defiance of that principle which forbids to encourage slavery by direct or indirect alvantages, The most zealous enemy to England in the States will find it difficult to suggest any resait whi er to compensate the loss of more than twenty millions sterling annually. Whether Great Bri- tain would be really aloser by being compelled to take her cottona and tobacco, and the other articles which she from the United States, from her own colo- enrich herseit and her colonies by the re 1, i stion which can oily be anawer- ed; but, aa we ¢ said, we wish to avoid all, even indi- rectly, offensive topics. Sream Frioare Reterimvtion.—This vessel, which was launched yesterday at Chatham, is the largest steam frigate and the finest vessel of her class in the service. She is longer by 5 feet than the Penelope, which ship it will be recollected was originally @ eailing frigate of the 38 gun class. ‘The Retribution is one of the most periect specimens of navaLarchitreture we. have seen, and has been turned off the stocks in a i hada creditable to her constructer. Her frame is of Italian oak, 1844. on lease 19,035 ; total, 36,056 acres, disposed of in| her planking and decks are of teak. and her beams are of African teak. She is frigate built, with ports fore and aft on her main deck, and has very supe- Tlor accommodation, not only for her owa crew, but for troops, as, in addition to her own ehip’s company, which is to consist of 200 men, ehe can convey a full regiment of soldiers, a ueand or eleven hundred strong.
