NEW YORK HERALD. “New York, Monday, June 9, 1865. ‘Tue Cutvesk Lanovacs.—We have in type one of the most curious, learned and original papers on the origin, formation and nature of the Chinese language that has ever been published in this country. It has been furnished us by the Secretary of the National Institute—an association of which the republic will soon feetustly proud—and was written by one of the attaches of the late American Legation at Can- ton. Its appearance in our columns has been delay- ed in order to afford time to our artist to engrave some fifty or sixty Chinese characters, introduced as illustrations. It will be published to-morrow. The Prospect Before Us. The elements of prosperity and wealth were never so active and so rapidly progressing in this country or any other, as they are at this moment throughout the United States, Nothing seems to mar the pros- pect of an extraordinary increase in all species of wealth for the next few years, unless the little black cloud alluded to by Sir Robert Peel--Texas and Or- egon—should expand into any dangerous dimensions and break upon the world. It is the opinion, how- ever, of a great many sensible men, that the British Government will be very cautious how they get into 4 serious quarrel with the United States on account of annexation, She has so many interests connec- ted with this country, commercial and manufactur- ing, that it seems impossible to many minds that she can for an instant entertain the idea of actual ho:- tility. Others, however, think differently, and be- lieve that the British aristocracy and_ privileged classes, in combination with similar interests in France, and on the continent of Europe, think that it is time to make a stand against the influence and progress of republican principles, even at the risk of interrupting all the commercial intercourse between Europe and America. It seems, therefore, to be a question involved in some doubt, whether the great struggle between the popular and privileged classes is or is not to be postponed for some considerable time. Under the supposition, however, that the peaceful relations of the two countries will continue unbro- ken, even with the annexation of Texas and other menacing questions between Europe and America, we cannot resist the conviction that the progress of this country in wealth, prosperity, population and power will be greater during the next ten years than in any ten years of the past existence of the repub- lic, The agricultural interests—obviously worthy of the first and highest consideration, in estimating Removats prom Orrice.—We refer our reader: toa letter published under our Washington head, whieh gives a list of removals from office ulready made in the capitol, on the principle that to the vic- tors belong the spoils. About thitty or forty remo- vals have been made, and probably one hundred or one hundred and fifty will follow. Indeed, by the last accounts, we perceive that the office-beggars in that magnificent capital are growing more and more savage every day, and are actually holding meetings, calling upon the President and the heads of Depart- ments to carry out the work of reform, as they call it. Probably the number of removals in the large cities may be equal to two or three hundred, to say nothing of the numerous postmasters that may be decapitated without our knowing any thing about it The removals thus far, howeVer, are not equal in number to those which were made under Gen- eral Harrison’s administration, in the first month of its existence, including part of Mr. Tyler’s first year. This principle of removal from office—of proscrip- tion on account of political opinions—is most de- testable, no matter by what party it is adopted. It has only risen up during the last fifteen years to any. degree of magnitude, but now it appears to be adopt- ed and practised by both parties to the fullest possible extent, each, when out of power, denouncing it in the most hypocritical manner. We do not believe that there is any remedy for this evil but time. It must inevitably produce such confusion and de- moralization, that all parties will see its danger and relinquish it. It led to the defeat of the democratic party under Van Buren—it had the same effect amongst the whig party—and if it be carried out by the party at present-in power, it will be the means of introducing the elements of weakness and defeat to such a degree,as to produce their utter overthrow in 1848 by the whigs. The great mass of the people are thoroughly disgusted with this detestable princi- ple. ‘Tue Government Organ anp ANNEXATION.—The Union appears to be quite annoyed because the pub- lic obstinately persist in the belief that Great Bri- tain is really exerting every effort in the way of di- plomatic intrigue and exertion to defeat annexation. It undertakes to deny that there is any such treaty or provisional arrangement between England and Mexico, or any other power, in order to prevent the union of Texas with this Republic. It also denies that Lord Aberdeen has given instructions to Mr. Pakenham to insist on the mouth of the Columbia River as the dividing line between the American and British possessions in the Oregon Territory ; but the organ declares in the same breath, that if such instructions have been given, its voice is for the elements of our national greatness—are in a condition most flourishing and promising. Every year sees vast tracts of virgin soil brought under the plough and harrow, and bringing forth in due sea- son teeming harvests. The cultivation of the earth begins to be carefully studied, and practised as a science. Immense numbers are directing their means and industry to the tillage of the ground: The rapid sales of public lands in the far west the swelling tide of emigration to those fer- tile regions—-the vast increase in the annual aggregate of agricultural productions—all afford the most gratifying evidence of the prosperity and growth of agriculture. The commercial in- terests of the country are also in a state of great health and vigour. Our seaports are growing with extraordinary rapidity. The internal commerce of the country is increasing at a pace that is really sur- prising. On the borders of our lakes and on the banks of our rivers, great cities and towns are springing up like the work of magic. On our canals immediate war. Well, be it so. He may have a chance of letting off his military ardor by and by. _ Itis not probable that the British Cemmissioner in Texas would take so much trouble in the recent diplomatic movements, unless he were fully autho- rized by his own government to do so. Nor'ts it likely that the British Government would have in- termeddled to that extent unless they meant to go farther. If they retreat now, they must be the laughing-stock of the civilized world. On the other hand, if Texas annexation be carried in spite of all opposition, it will be one of the greatest triumphs ever achieved by the diplomatic talent of the United States, covering at the same time with contempt and ridicule, to the latest times, the ludicrous efforts of Mexico, France and England combined, to defeat the measure. Wor Great Britain there is now no escape from either horn of this dilemma. Porice.—The city is, at present, without a police, and the lives and liberties of our citizens are quite at the mercy of every rowdy who may choose to afid railroads, and innumerable navigable rivers, immense quantities of all descriptions of merchan- dize are conveyed daily. In every direction we see the evidences of unequivocal commercial prosperity. Our manufacturing interests present the same marks of flourishing progress. In New England and New York, manufactures have been established on a large scale and stable basis, and begin to penetrate into the regions of the South and West, to an extra- ordinary extent. Thus growing up, steadily and prosperously, side by side with the agricultural in- terests, our manufactures afford us the most cheering assurances of the future progress of the country, and its rapid growth in the most essential elements of national wealth and power. In reviewing the present condition of the country, ‘we must not overlook the improvement in the bank- ingsystem. This improvement has been marked in the extreme, and constitutes one of the best possible omens of future prosperity. The old financial er- rors and false principles have been exploded. No one, now, talks of a Natioual Bank. Everybody looks with the severest scrutiny to all the move- ments, separate or combined, of the State Banks, in order to keep them properly controlled. The bank- ing system is now in a comparatively healthy con- dition, and may be kept so by the vigilance of an intelligent. and philosophical press and people, Money is plenty, as may be seen by the rates of interest and the premium given on recent loans to this State. If peace be preserved, all these elements of wealth and power must increase beyond the anticipations even of the most sanguine imagination, and rapidly make us the wealthiest nation in the world. All the riches of the earth must gradually extend to these great centres of agricultural, manufacturing, commercial and mining industry and wealth; whilst the city ot New York, as the great metropolis of the whole nation is giving evidence of its growth, en- terprise and power in every department of human life. The splendid palaces which are now in pro- gress of erection in different parts of the city, and intended for private residences, are even more su- perb than those built in 1836. Yet every thing ap- pears healthy, stable and sound. All this prospect—brilliant and inviting as it is— will increase and widen if peace should be preserv- ed, and if the powers of western Europe keep a pro- per distance in reference to all questions connected with this continent, and the progress of society and government here. If they do continue theirfinterfe- rence in amore hostile form—if war come—then there will be a great and terrible effort, which will give a new direction to all the energies of this coun- try, and open a chapter of human character on this continent which has never yet been unsealed. Rerrat Meerinc To-Nicut.—The repealers meet to-night at Tammany Hall, and it is probable that a great struggle will take place between the O’Con- nellites and the more sensible members of the asso- ciation, who are disposed to follow the patriotic ex- ample of their brethren throughout the country ; though, indeed, it wil? be somewhat surprising if any man be found with sufticient hardihood to de- fend O’Connell in his infamous course with regard to this country. The great question will probably | be about the propriety of dissolving the association. | On all principles of right, reason, and sound com- | mon sense, the association ought to be abolished at | assail their persons. The police who had been ap- pointed under the late Corporation have ceased to act, and the misunderstanding between the Mayor and the two Boards of Common Council, on the subject of the appointment of a Police Inspector, has caused the introduction of an ordinance, to be re- ported from a special committee, giving the details of a bill in relation to the formation of a police force. It is truly lamentable that a city like this, with such an immense population, should be left, from time to time, without an effective police force, through the jars and squabbles of party. It is equally to be de- plored that, no matter how the machinery of a bill may be laid down, some difficulty will be thrown in the way—some hair-splitting abjuration—so as to prevent our enjoying the blessings of a good police. We have not only to contend with party, but with shades of party, who quarrel ‘‘de lana caprina;” and thus the community are deprived of a police force. We trust that we will, as soon as possible, be supplied with those necessary guardians of the public peace and property of our citizens, as the city is in a most deplorable condition without them. Tuearricats.—The present will be the last week of the season at the Park—a season more brilliant and prosperous than any for the last seven years. Anderson plays for the last time positively on Wed- nesday night, as he is “booked” for the Great Western which sails for England on the following day. He will sustain his two best characters— “Claude Melnotte,” and “Charles,” in the “ Elder Brother.” On Friday night Mrs. Mowatt makes her debut, which is looked to with the greatest interest and curiosity. There is a good deal of curiosity, algo, to see Crisp as “ Claude Melnotte.” Ninto’s GarpEn—Spite of the cold last Saturday evening, there was an excellent saloon to witness the new Drama, a sure proof of its rising populanty. Edge has given some superb pieces of Fireworks— he is certainly first in his art.

Removat or THE ContEcror—Nor so CeRTAIn. —We have been assured by a highly respectable gentleman, who saw the best authority at Washing- ton, as late as Saturday last, that the removal of Mr. Van Ness, or the appointment of Mr. Lawrence, was unknown and unheard of in that latitude. Isit possible that the offer of this oftice to Mr. Lawrence has been only as yet an arrangement between Se- cretary Marcy and his friends here, with a promise to get the consent of the President and Cabinet as soon as possible? The Collectorship of this port has been several times disposed of in alike way be- fore. We pause for further information. Ptumse’s Nationa Dacuereian Gautery.— This exhibition, in Broadway, opposite the Park, one of the most complete of the kind in the country. It has become a place of great fashionable resort, and strangers in the city visit it as one of the city sights. There is probably no collection of portraits of distinguished persons so large and so correct as this one. It has become an established fact, that Plumbe’s Daguerreotype likenesses are the perfec- tion of the art; their softness and distinctness par- take equally of the line and mezzotinto engravings. once. Such associations are used merely to serve the purposes of little agitators here and there, with- out the great body of the members being aware of the manwuvre.

Sporting Intelligence. % Pepssrrianism, Hurpue Racine, &c.—The spring meetings for races, in this seetion of the country, bemg now pretty well over, the attention of the sporting community is directed to a different species of amusement, namely—Pedestrianism and Hurdle Racing; in other words, biped racing and hurdle jumping. The first great affair of this description is yap ape to couse off over the Fess coarse on inst. Every preparation is made on the d, and several of the most able’ pedes- trians of England have arrived here, and others are on their way thither, to take part in the affair— to try their powers against the most able in this peculiar line of the natives of this “great country.” Among. the former are Jac! » 80 well known in England under the cognomen of the “American Deer,” one of the greatest victors i long and Lisa Santen tn) has ever apewared in at or any other country. He was accom; George Seward, one f those who, in a po aoe of a mile or so, never saw the back of @n opponent z the ie , post. Stephen favre another pail nown pedestrian, gene: termed in an Scotland “ the Scoeh Bantum,” is on his way thith- er, and if he does not give a account of him- self in every race in which he runs, he will very much disappoint those who have known him for years in the old country. In the twenty mile race, within two hours, that is talked of to come off in the early part of the fall, it 18 not unlikely but that Maxfield, the “ North Star,” the winner of a like race recently in England, will come out tomake one in this great mhderte king. If it is done, it will only be the second time that this great feat has ever been performed. < To. compete ee these, there is already in actiye training John Gildersleeve, whose prowess. and character are so well known from one end of the Union to the other, and whose wonderful _perform- ances are so fresh in the memories of all, in this neighborhood in particular, that nothing farther need be"said of him. Major H. Stannard is also in the field, in finer condition, better health and spirits, than he ever was; and although he may be some- what the senior in years of most of the others, his bottom, at least, is equal to any of them. Steeprock, the Indian, also 1s said to be in active training in the nei thood of Buffalo, astonishing all whe have had the opportunity of seeing him by his per- formances. ey say that it will be by tact clone that he can be defeated. Another Indian, o} Iroquois tribe, is in active training in Canada, of whom the Canadians speak very igh; and are ede sanguine of his powers. In addition to these, ere is a great number training who gave a very good account of themselves last year; many of whom are considerably improved since that time. Among them are Ambrose Jackson, and Barlow, who have now become permanent residents of this country. There are also outsiders without number, anxious to partake of the chance. Weekly, nay, almost daily, are the different tracks in the neigh- borhood attended by parties trying their powers, or etting themselves in readiness for the great affair. Not a day elapses but some six or eight may be met with at Wright’s, Bergen Cones loboken, about their bite toil, rivalling each other with their exer- tions. These alone, so far, promise to make this affair of eaee interest, if possible, than the like lair of last year, and it is hoped will terminate as cordially. Of the Hurdle racing not much can yet be known, as the entries will not terminate until the 30th inst. But report speaks of one in this city, another from Boston, a third from Canada, thet will not turn their horses trom a five foot stone wall, and perform the mile in out-and-out time. _ It is acoanling to report to be quite a different affair to the one of last year, 0th in horsemanship and speed. So be it; only riders take care of your necks—an assurance on your hives previously would not be injudicious. _ Every preparation is being made by the spirited proprietor of the Beacon Course to make things go off'as they should do ; new stands are being erect- ed ; the old ones removed where it is needed ; a large stand in the middle of the ground is formed, for those who may not like to venture on the other stands ; a new fence 15 feet high erected, around which on the outside a deep trench is dug, and va- rious other alterations made which promises a great- erdegree of comfort and security than hitherto — Having the recent dangerous accident at Camden before our eyes, when all is complete we shalljudge for ourselves and report progress, upon which the public may depend. It will be necessary to have every thing examined by competent persons ere this affair comes off, as doubtless there will be thousands present. Tut Lare Parapevena Dueu.—lIn reference to this fashionable affair, the two young gentlemen who went out to take a crack at each other, we find there are two sides to the story. We recently pub- lished a statement from one of the parties, which the other finds unsatisfactory and denounces it. ‘We have received through a third person the fol- lowing statement from Philadelphia yesterday, which is the view the other party takes of the origin of the matter:— Purvapecrnia, 7th June, 1845, a gt G. Bennett :— Having noticed in your peper of the Oth inst, & state. ment relative to the late duel in Philadelphia, introduced by some editorial remarks, (and, therefore, of conse- uence,) in which you say, ‘and we have been autho- ied by some of the parties to publish the following statement,” &c., that statement demands correction. So far from Mr. Willing insulting Mr. Schott on Satur- day evening, no words or intercourse of: C4 kis sed between the parties at that time, or at fg ‘ime previous to their meeting on Sunday—when Mr. Schott, without an} vocation, grossly insulted Mr. W: . The foll owing morning, Mr. Schott, refusing all oxplanation or apology for his conduct, left Mr. Willing no alterna- tive. The duel between the parties, on Tuesday morn- ing, was the consequence. Yours, &c. B—_ This is the willing side of the affair; we give it for what it is werth, having responsible names for its accuracy. Not knowing any thing of the matter ourselves, we leave the belligerent parties to settle their differences between themselves in the best way they can. It is probably as interesting to the public as the rise or fall of fancy stocks. News From tur West Inpta Istanps.—We have received the Bermuda Herald of the 29th ult., and the Turks Island Gazette of the 2lst., &c. They contain some items of interest. It appears that a famine threatens several of the islands. (From Bermuda Herald, May 29.) 4 traffic was opened a short time ago between some of the merchants of the Bahamas and those of Hayti, which bids fair to prove beneficial to both places. e Baha mians export English manufactured goods to Hayti, and in return receive coffee, and other productions of that island.

On Saturday forenoon an Irish laborer, named Dennis Long, about thirty years old, suddenly rushed into a provision store in Broad street, Boston, seized a butcher knife that was on the counter, ran out into the street and cut his throat.

The trial of John Hardison for murder, at Norfolk, was given to the jury on Wednesday syenine last, it having occupied the Court during the whole of that day.

Arrival or A SreampoatT rrom New York AT Danvittr.—On Wednesday morning last our citi- zens were surprised by the sppeesentay ofan iron steam- boat on the canal, direct from New York,on an experi- mental trip to this place, loaded with merchandise. The puffing and hissing noise ofthe steam engine created quite an excitement among the spectators along the wharf, albeit our people are accustomed to the opera. tions of steam. The name of the bot Phoenix, and she is commanded by her owner Captain Low. She has Erricson’s propellers attached to her, and her engine is of twenty horse Fuh appearance is neat and substantial, being jizo of alarge tide wa- ter canal boat. The captain med as that he storted from New York, on Tuesday, the 27th ult., and was nine days on the way, having been detained at least four faye, pay by a break in the tide water canal, and a ly by boats being jammed in the Pennsylvania canal on account ofthe low water. He also stated that both ca- nals were filled up to aconsiderable extent, with sand and gravel, so that his boat repeatedly stuck fast, al- thongs she scarcely draws three feet of water.

Wesrern Free Trapr.—The steamer Frolic, which was chartered by the Union Fur Company, of the city of New York, and despatched, in July last, to their station on the Yellow Stone, returned here yes- terday, after an absence of ten months. On account of the extreme low water, she was unable to reach the int of her destination; but after procee: about one jundred and fifty miles above Fort Geot i, put about and returned to that place, where she detained mn months, the river being too low to permit her to descend. Captain Dicks informs us that the winter was remarkably mild, and very little rain or snow had fallen. ‘The trappers had been tolerably suc- cessful in taking bi , and the hunters in killing buf- falo. The Frolic left Fort George on the 9th inst., with about seven hundred packs of robes and furs, but the ri- vor was so low she was obliged to return and ship them on Mackinaw boats. She left again on the 11th, and wos overtaken by a of three and a half feet in a day or two after, which enabled her to descend without further difficulty.

Sunday, June 8&6 P. M. There was a slight revival in the stock market about the middle of last week, but it was only temporary, the bulls not being able to sustain prices, and the week closed heavy. Some of the speculetors anticipate a per- manent improvement in stocks about the middle of July. Several of the largest operators in the street have for sometime past been buying large lots on time, buyer’s option. Very little of this stock has been called in, and the contracts remain open, liable to be closed at any moment. As soon as these purchasers are ready to take the stocks purchased, which will be as soon as they think prices have touched bottom, there will be quite an active demand for stocks, and an advance must take place. The time sales at both boards of Brokers within the past five or six weeks, have been principally at buy- er’s option, which is the best evidence in the world that an improvement in prices is anticipated by these opera- tors. When acombination exists among the most ex- tensive brokers to purchase in this way, it gives them the power to regulate the market just as they please. This accounts in a measure forthe present depression in the stock market, and we cannot look for any improvement in the extent of transactions, or in prices, until it may suit the interests of this cligue of cornerors to set the speculators in motion. The money market is comparatively easy. ‘The rate of interest ranges from 5} to 6 per cent, and the banks are discounting very liberally. There is yet a great want of outside operators in the street, and the brokers are having all the business to themselves. Any advance in stocks, no matter from what cause, will bring to the surface plenty of speculators. A rising market attracts operators, and more anxiety exists to get hold-of stocks after they have risen five or ten per cent, than at the lowest point. Tho speculator who would not touch Har- jem Railroad stock at 70, when the market was heavy, eagerly buys at 80 or 85, when a speculative fever oxists. It requires a very strong excitement to induce operators to take hold, but after once getting under way, there usually is no limit to their transactions.

The exporition of specic this year has been greater than in eitier of the two previous,which recounts for part of the increased aggregate value of merchandise shipped.
