In order to give the public an opportunity of send- ing the latest news to Europe by this steamer, we shall issue an Extra Herald at,3 o’clock this after- noon. It will contain the latest intelligence from all parts of this continent, which may include some- thing from Texas and Mexico. In addition to this Extra,we shall publish early to- day another edition of the Weekly Herald, contain- ing the news of last week—the particulars of the Great Funeral Procession, with illustrations, &c. The price of the Extra will be two cents per copy, and sixpence for a Weekly, in or out of The Philosophy of Politics. A very brief period of time has elapsed since the reat presidential contest, which shook and agita- ted the country from one extremity to the other, | terminated in the election of the Democratic candi- date ; but already we see the fierce struggle be- tween the contending parties resumed, and in al) directions the opposing elements are again at work. The old cliques in both partiesgare active as ever, 224 new cliques are rapidly forming. A fresh game has been commenced, and on the great political chess- board, the players make,with more or less cautious- ness and skill, the movements which are to result at the end ofanother four years in the ruin, for the time of one or other of the parties. What is the great object of all these movements of cliques and parties—these mutterings of discontent— | these clamorous appeals to the administration— ticians, who have heretofore made them their tools and instruments. By thus making the millions, who have been hitherto only spectators, actual part- all-absorbing excitement. Ina day or two we will open this new leaf in the popular philosophy of poli- ties, and present some singular revelations touching the practical import and tendency of recent move. ments here and elsewhere. Gross ann Ovrracgous FaLseHoop AND LiBgL.— At a very considerable expense, we published in this journal, as all our readers are aware, a com- plete and beautiul series of engravings, illustrative of the great funeral procession in this city, | day last. Our artists received from us about one | hundred dollarsfor the wood cuts, and what with | their pictorial illustrations, and the description, fur- | nished by our eight or ten reporters, we succeeded in giving an account of the solemnities of the day, immeasurably superior to that which appeared in any other paper in the city. The best evidence of this was the immense sale of the Herald, contain- | copies of the daily; and the orders for the weekly paper, containing the same matter, have been on the same scale. : Annoyed and mortified by our superior enterprise, our jealous and envious contemporaries immediately set to work,with characteristic falsehood and malig- nity,to depreciate our labor; and one of them,which still gasps and lingers as the organ of “ nativism” in this region, came out in the following manner :— these cunning and far-reaching manceuvres of aspiring party leaders? A brief glance at the | philosophy of the politics of the United States will | render the whole matter clear and intelligible, so that | he that runs may read. Political movements in this country, in the State | Legislatures and in the General Government, exhi- bit a constant series of struggles between two great parties, who are in reality the government, and con trol and direct the destinies of the republic. One party represents the strong popular impulses—the de- mocratic, onward, ultra tendencies, sentiments and opinions of the people and the time—the other, the more subdued and restricted views and opinions of particular and powerful interests and classes, embodying much of the educated intelligence and acquired wealth of the community. These two great parties—the democrats and whigs— must always of necessity exercise the prepondera” ting influence in political affairs. Third parties may ever and anon, as in time past, spring up,found- ed on some particular idea, and acquiring varying degrees of strength and importance, but only giving the slightest direction to the great machinery of government, when by reason of the exceeding closeness of the contest between the two great antagonists in the field, a comparatively trifling influence employed one way or the other, may de- termine the issue. In this category ranks the Humnuc.—The Herald came out yesterday with a whole side, containing, what arpertah to be, a pictorial view of the Funeral ion of General Jackson on Tuesday. We should like to know how many times dl same stereotyped Boereiag are to be used,and for how many different purposes? Ifour history of them be true, they were used first by the Londen Illustrated News, seven or eight years ago to represent the procession at the Coronation of Queen Victoria. They were afterwards imported into this country by Wilson to put in the picto- rial Brother Jonathan. We next trace them down to the Crotom Water Celebration, when they were used again ; and after being laid aside for a year or two, were made to represent the Tyler Procession in this city in the Herald and Sunday Jtlas. Now, to cap the climax, they are brought out, we hope for the last timo, to be palmed off as a correct pictorial view of the great funeral proces- sion of General Jackson in the city of New York. How very like is a Coronation of a Queen to the burial of an American President and hero! No “native,” we hope, would undertake to practice such a piece ofhumbuggery upon his countrymen, and it is disgraceful to tolerate it inany one. ‘This is “a greatcountry.” Of this series of deliberate falsehoods, we find the following endorsement in the Albany Evening Jour- nal, a paper conducted by Thurlow Weed :— Entittep To 4 DiscHance.—One of the New York pa- pers alleges that the ‘full and accurate” illustrations of General Jackson’s funeral procession on Tuesday last which appeared “exclusively” in a certain notorious journal of that city, have already performed duty on the following occasions:—The Coronation of Queen Victoria —Croton Water Celebration—Gen. Harrison’s Funeral— The Tyler Procession in 1843 ~and lastly on this funeral occasion. Surely they are now entitled toa Cree There should be a statute of limitations against these im- positions upon the public. Now, see how easily we convict these wholesale slanderers of the grossest and most audacious false- hoods :— “liberty” party, and in it also we have the “na- tives.” The latter hardly raised a ripple on the broad ocean of politics, and their party now number- ed amongst the things that were. Shrieking ap” peals may indeed still be made to the prejudices and bigotries of ignorant and malignant natures— Levins may blaspheme the memories of martyred patriots by howling over their very graves, and in sight of a monument raised in honor of their glorious deeds, frantic tirades against the first and best prin- ciples of that civil and religious liberty in defence of which they shed their blood—but for all that,“ nativ- ism” isdead and buried forever. As for the “liber- ty” party, the little influence which circumstances gave to it, is fast declining, and it cannot be at all included in any philosophical estimate of the ele- ments which operate with controlling potency in the world of politics. Thus, then, the empire is divided between the two great parties—whiz and democratic. And they, as we have eaid, are virtually the government of the country. Thecivil government of the United States was framed on the same fictitious theory as that.on which the British Constitution has been founded. The President, Senate, and House of Representatives, were supposed to be analagous to the King, Lord and Commons of Great Britain— the one operating as a check upon the other. In England, where the House of Peers is composed of the great landed proprietors, occupying their seats by hereditary title, and the highest dignitaries of the church, whilst the House of Commons is composed of representatives taken from the people, this theory, to a certain extent, holds good in practice.— But here itis a perfect fiction. In this country it is in the constant antagonism of the two great political parties that we find the check which effectually pre- New Yonx, June 28th, 1945. Gonvon Bennett, Rk oF THE Hera I perceive that several of the city papers, and some out of it, from moti best understood by their editors, have indulged in s unjust remarks respect- ing the wood cuts which appeared in your colums illus- trating the funeral of General Jackson. As the engraver who executed them, I consider it due to you as well as myself to say fully and explicitly that they never appeared before in any newspaper, magazine 0 book published in this country or any other, but that they were executed at my place of business in Nassau street, nor were they ever out of my possession until they appeared in the Herald. One editor, in his knowledge, has even gone so far as to say, that they originally appeared in the London Illustrated News at the time of the coronation of Queen Victoria, seven or vight y ago, when eny one that knows any thing at all of the progress of wood engraving is aware that that pictorial has been published but about three years! I reiterate, the Herald is the only paper the cuts ever appeared in, nor were they completely finished until af- ter the funeral procession had taken place.

It would certainly be a curious and strange proceeding, and one quite overlooked by the framers of this bill. It will be seen by the annexed list of Captains and As- sistant Captatns that no appointments have been made in the 3d and 12th Wards. This is owing to the fact of the Aldermen and Assistants not having agreed on a nomination. Besides the Captains and Assistant Captains, who perform in addition to their regular duties, those of Health Wardens, Street Inspectors, Dock Masters, Hack and Cab Inspectors, &e , for their own Wards, there have been an average of six policemen ap- pointed foreach Ward.

Strona, Publisher and Wood Engraver, No, 98 Nassau street. an unmitigated lie, our respectable contemporaries must stand covered with the indignant reprobation of all honorable men. We do not, however, intend to allow Thurlow Weed to escape with impunity. He has brought a libel suit against us for our expo sure of his notorious Roorback forgery, and we have now gotfa fair opportunity of just retaliation, which we will not neglect to improve. He has slandered us in the most outrageous manner, repre- senting us as guilty of ‘‘impositions upon the pub- lic,” a charge which we have now shown to be wholly false and malicious; and we will at once in- stitute proceedings against him and prosecute them to the very utmost extremity—in the language of vents any continued course of legislation injurious to the interests of the whole people. It is this, in- deed, which constitutes one of the surest safe- guards of the prosperity and perpetuity of the republic. So long as the two predominant parties retain, and from ,the nature of things they must re- tain,their present so nicely balanced relative degrees of strength and influence, the most wholesome and salutary check which the wisest statesman or Con- stitution-menger could devise, exists in the practical admivistration of the different branches of the gov- ernment. The very vastness of the territorial limits within which this system of government is in ope- ration, we may also here add as one of the most es- sential elements of its success and permanence.— Over so extended a dominion, individual sway ne- ver can be exercised; and the wider it be extended, the greater the necessity of union for the securi- ty fof the mutual interests of all. It is in this view of the action and influence of political parties, that all the movements of each become invested with peculiar dignity and interest. Re- garded in this light, these movements cease to be the mere squabbles of factions, contending for the spoils” of office, or the paltry struggles of ambi- tious and selfish demagogues. Every great measure involving materially the interests of the country, is affes.d ina greater or less degree, by these party movements. The foreign relations of the republic— its internal prosperity—its trade, its agriculture, its manufactures, its financial affairs, its civil institu- tions—the administration of government and the Jaws—may be all affe-ted by the issue of a struggle between the two parties, about some comparatively Nay, even the faction-fight of two cliques of the same party, may have bound up in its wivial subject issue, results of the most momentous importance. Hence it is, that to the philosophic and indepen- dent observer, the movements now in progress al over the country, are so significant and so full of To what do all these movements tend ?

So also with | the other party—the Whigs. They are equally busy. And thus we have the interesting and exciting spec- tacle of each of the two great parties convulsed by its own internal struggles for the ascendancy of a particular clique, whilst at the same time the conflict goes on between them both, on the wider theatre of national politics—all these varied movements mean- while operating upon, swaying, controlling, influen- cing and directing the general policy of the country, and the administration of the government. Here is the field for the independent journalist—a the sign-boards put up to warn thieves and trespass- ers, ‘ with the utmost rigor of the law.” Tue “Union” Newsparer, as A NewsparEer.— We see in many of the newspapers frequent attempts at depreciation of the character of the Union, as an organ of the government. It is alleged that it lacks dignity—sagacity—and discretion; and many doubts are expressed relative to its vitality, and the proba- bility of its receiving the printing of Congress. We differ very much from these opinions. The Globe may have had more dignity and more force in cer- tain directions than the Union; but the Union is un- questionably much more readable and more amus- ing than its close-mouthed and , blustering predeces- journal as the Globe received any other journal. vor of Ritchie, notwithstanding all his amusing twaddle, and greenness of knowledge relative to the world about him. Although our venerable and philosophic friend is about seventy years of age in minion,” yet, in these regions, he is not much over seventeen. He has all the youthful sprightli- ness, versatility, verdancy, twaddle, natural wit, and natural silliness of a youth of one and twenty. We like him much; and we like him the better the more demolition of the Globe, the removal of all its fierce and savage conductors, its extermination from the face of the earth, and the establishment of a read- able journal in its place. We also approve of the ejectment of the old kitchen cabinet, and their dis- missal to the regions of weeping, and wailing; and gnashing of teeth. If Mr. Polk wants a kitchen cabinent of his own, has he not a right to plant one, and set a hedge about it, it with tender solicitude ? ment and curiosity exists relative to the character the dying “hero of the Hermitage.” Why has it not been given to the world? Can there be any impropriety in spreading before the whole nation, the last words of one in whose political sagacity so many reposed unbounded confidence? We do think that the President owes it to himself, to the great man that has departed, and to the country, to make this letter public. New Postrace’ Law.—Letter writers may in- dulge to any extent to-morrow, and the grumblings of those who have postage to pay will then be somewhat calmed, as the new postage law charging only five cents per oz. on letters sent to any place not exceeding 300 miles, and ten cents over that distance, will go into effect.

Now that the police organization is near- ly completed, the people are looking forward with were the chief ground upon which the present Com- mon Council got into office. There is a wide field for the exercise of those salutary reforms which are so much needed ; and which we have, time and again, pointed out to our city fathers in the Corpo- ration. The condition of the streets is worse than ever ; the great thirst that exists for the erection of new buildings has also created in many parts of the city a new kind of nuisance—namely, large piles of brick and mortar—thrown on the middle of the streets, which render them in many places quite im- passable. These remarks particularly apply to Ma. dison street. The patching in Broadway, also gives decided dissatisfaction. Indeed, the entire organi~ zation, under the City Government, so much needs a thorough reformation, that we know not where to begin. We have repeatedly called the attention of the authorities to the interminable racing that is carried on daily, before our eyes, by the omnibuses in Broadway ; the collection of rowdies also, every Sunday, at the corners of the streets, who openly at- tack all respectable, lone females who may chance to pass by. In fact, we could exhaust some co- lumns of matter in pointing out their line of duty, to the Common Council, and the means by which the numerous evils we complain of could effectually be checked.

The fact is, it is most absurd in any case to attempt to legislate in advance of public sentiment—as long as a large majority of a people are in the daily and habitual use of an article, it is utter folly to attempt to enact laws prohibiting its sale—for they never can be put in force.

The ground, without doubt, will be crowded to excess ; therefore, those who are desirous of getting anything like a favorable view, had better go early. The one mile foot race will be the great feature of the day, for which are entered some of the best pedestrians of this and the old country. The contest, it is said, will be between the Ist, 2d, 3d, 6th and 7th—mutual between native and foreign competitors—both wild and naturalized. Stannard and the Scotch Bantam against the field has been offered; but the three first on the list are most generally backed. The Troquois Indian is backed at 3to 5 against the field pretty freely; the Scotch Bantam at 5 to 4; Major Stannard at 4 to 5 against any other; the same with Ambrose Jackson and Wm. Barlow.

The American 'y has made strange work in some Townships.—Although a line has been acknowledged for years, from the St. Lawrence to the sources of the Connecticut, and the inhabitants on both sides have a perfect knowledge of it, thase liners have made elbows and zig-zags into people's farms with- out any apparent object. In the Township of Sutton, some farms are made to lose from four to eight acres by the way the track has been cut. The people, however, are to remain easy until the British Commissioners come on, by whom they expect their land will be restored. We understand that the pa we refer to use the com- pass only for their guide in following the line, an instru- ment which a common Surveyor would be ashamed to use in laying down courses which are expected to be mi ticslly correct, or as nearly s com} hes done, and we fear is still misanie under the Crown Lands Departme: the Queen and her subjects, but however domestic trou- bles may arise from this cause, it is the duty of her Gov- ernment to prevent all trouble from it between her own people and foreigners.

Sunday, June 20-6 P. M. There has not been experienced for years amuchmore inactive week inthe stock market; but prices have, not- withstanding the absence of operators and the complex- ion of our foreign relations, been very firm. ‘Transuc- tions have, it is true, been limited, but quotations seem to have touched bottom, and are on the turning point. It is now full six months since the excitement created by the agitation of the Oregon and Texas questions commenced, and through the whole of this period the stock market has been becoming more and more depress - ed. In addition to the infiuenceof our difficultieswith ather nations upon prices, the efforts of those bearing stocks have been ceaseless and successful. For more than six months quotations for most of the principal fancy stocks have beensteadily declining, and have reached a lower level than realized within the past eighteon months. Stocks that have within this time become permanent di vidend paying securities are now selling at ten and fit- teen per cent below prices current when there was not the most remote probability of a dividend being pei for years. The principal cause of this depression in thestock market is not so mutch the position of our foreign rela- tions,or the fears ofa rupture with any nation,as the gene- ral inactivity of business, the immense amount of stocks upon the market and the absence of outside speculators Many of the outside operators have not recovered from the losses of last spring, while others are large holders of stocks purchased at prices above the present market vaue, which they are forced to hold for an advance, or swomit to heavy losses. A moderate improvement in prices would enable some of these operators to get out safely and induce others to come in. When the stock speculations of Wall street are left to the brokers of that vicinity, prices cannot be sustained, and steadily fell off, until an excitement is created sufficiently strong to draw into the business tic ewsside operators with small capi- tals. They are the prime movers in all specutations, and the brokers are disposed, when they can get them once started, to give them every facility to go their length in any operations they may feel anxious to make. We annex a comparative table giving the quotations for stockrin this market for each day during the past week, compared with those current at the close of the week previous. It will be observed that there has been but very little variation in prices for any of the fancies :— So (igal 1slseett ae A comparison of the quotations ruling at the close of the market yesterday, with those current at the close of the previous woek, shows a decline in Farmers’ Loan of } per cent; Illineis 6's, }; U. 8.

The closing quotations for Norwich and Worcester are made with the dividend 0 three per cent off. Bills of the denomination of fifty dollars, on the Che" mical Bank, New York, altered trom ones, are in circu- lution. They are so well executed as to deceive some of the Brokers. ‘The Merchants’ Bank of Baltimore, has declared a di- vidend of three per cent for the last half year, payable on and after the 7th July. The Western Bank of Baltimore has declared a div vidend of two and a half per cent for the last six months; At Detroit, the bills of the Farmers’ and Mechanics Bank were selling at a discount of 374 per cent, and the Bank of St. Clair at 62c.
