NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Tuesday, August 19, 1845. ‘The News from England. Every one was surprised yesterday by the arrival of the government express from Boston, bringing the intelligence of the arrival of the Hibernia, at that porton Sunday morning at 10 o’clock. We had made up our mindsto expect this steamship to- day or to-morrow, and cannot resist expressing our great satisfaction at the efficiency of the Postmaster in Boston, in so prompt!y sending on an express, enabling us and our cotemporaries'to transmit the news by extras, slips, and other modes,to the South, by the morning mail. The Post Office official at Boston? gives the best evidence of his capacity for the place he fills. We wish the same activity, libe- rality and energy were characteristic of the Post- masters in other cities. The charter of the news acquires importance in consequemce of the probable hostilities that will soon break out between the United States and Mexico om the annexation of Texas, and the com- plicatiors of our relations with France and England which maay probably follow. The first inquiry on every srrival from England is, ‘What do the Eng- lish *epers say of the policy of this country on annex- ation?” “Are there any further indications of the f eelings of the government towards this country in the Briush Parliament?” ‘What action is the governments of France and England likely to take ?” On looking over our English files and carefully noting our correspondence, we find it very difficult to come to any conclusion sanctioning the idea that the Britieh government have any intention of inter- fering at all in the matter, even if war should break out between the United States and Mexico. Thess is hardly any allusion at all to the smatter in any of the government journals of Great Britain. Even the Times seems studiously to avoid the discussion of such an irritating and troublesome topic as the movement of the United States towards Mexico. This silence, however,may mean something more than what it would at first appear to indicate. It . demonstrates, we think, cither that the British gov- ernment are intimidated by the position and power and prospects of the United States—by the weapons that we wield in our commercial elements, and our capability to precipitate difficulties of the most for- midable nature, even in the internal affairs of Eng- land herself ; or, that that government in the midst ef this unbroken silence must be meditating some decisive and energetic blow on the whole matter be- tween Mexico and this country, and also in refer- ence to Oregon. But while the government organs and the government itself are thns silent,we find the opposition und whig journals expressing a great deal of discontent, and submitting, with a very bad grace, to the destiny about to overtake them in the increasing power and fast advancing progress of this country. The sentiments expressed by seme of the opposition journals may be found in this day’s Herald. Some of the extracts which we have given are quite amusing. These journalists seem to make up their minds, with the best grace they can, to the conviction that itis the unalterable destiny of this country to over- run the whole continent—subjugate Mexico her- self—and establish'republican institutions, and re- publican principles, and republican manners, such as ‘we now see amongst us, all over this vastdivision of the earth. Such is the only intelligent view that can be taken of the annexation question in England, according to the last arrivals. Either the British government are meditating some decisive blow, or they are re- signing themselves to their fate and to future events the best way they can. They seem, however, to have a much ‘higher opinion of the character and energy of Mr. Polk than when he was first elected ; and if Mr. Polk and his cabinet carry out the an- nexation of Texas with vigor and promptitude, bri- dle effectually the impudence of Mexico, if she should declare war, we have vo doubt the British government will begin to think us a_ first- rate power, and that democracy and Brother Jonathan are not tobe sneezed at hereafter.— The trth is, in England they are beginning to understand the power and energy of this country, and the means it possesses of controlling certain great elements of trade, particularly the cotton— that, in fact, the very existence of the present social and political framework of Great Britain isin our aeands. Disrincursuep Strancers 1x Town.—A number of distinguished strangers and politicians are in town. General DuffGreen is still, we believe, in the city, and occupics apartments at the National Hotel, in Courtlandt street. He is ‘now engaged, we believe, in magnetic telegraph operations. The General is a remarkable man in his way. He has been the originstor of more general movements in public affairs than any other manin the coantry; but, somehow, others always manage to step in, and, taking the schemes out of his hands, carry them into execution, He started the Texas movement—talk ed and wrote John Tyler into it, and, afterwards, it was adopted by the democracy. The Oregon movement had the same paternity. John C. Rives, the partner of Blair, in the Globe is also in town. He has been several times up the North River, since his arrival, visiting Van Buren, senior and junior. He still considers himaelt one of “* the leaders,” and is expected to be one of the can- didates forthe Congressional printing, in opposition to Mr. Ritchie, the candidate of Mr. Polk. We understand from good anthority, that Mr. Rives has entirely ex¢nlpated General Cameron, of Pennsyl- vania, fromthe charge of being “the renegade poli- tician” alluded to in’ one of Jackson’s letters. Grorestown Cotteae —The correspondents at ‘Washington, of some of the papers here, continue to throw out imputations on the management of this College. We think the principals, officers, and trus- tees,oughtat once to make a public exposition of the true facts in the case,and expose these slanders,which may infurt the institution. Our columns are cheer- fully placed at the disposal of the managers of the College br this purpose. Our ovn conviction is, that all these statements are false and -culumnious, originating in feelings of Jealousy and envy, either on the part of individuals, r of rival establishments, that have been overshadow ed by the popularity and influence of this Col- lege. We do not know any other institution in this country so well adapted for the educa- tion of youth of both sexes. In Ttaly, we know vety well. many of the Catholic Se- minaries are sad sinks of corruption, and even in this count'y, many of the colleges and boarding schools, ae of the same character. But a Catholic institutionfor the education of youth, surrounded by Protestantand very vigilant ebservers, is more like- ly, than ary other, to be well conducted. Camp Merrivas.—At one of theee meetings, near Brooklyn, a terrible riot occurred the other day, and a mat was almost killed. At another, in the neighboripod of Baltimore, a similar scene took place, andone life was lost in the affray. Surely tiese occurrences ought to show the utter absurdity ind wickedness of such assemblages, and point out to the really religious the necessity of breaking w all such promiscuous meetings as may be attempted hereafter. They can do no good, but must do ezreat deal of mischief. All respectable clergymen, in particular, should avoid and frown upon suck gatherings. Ratinaaps ny tHe Unrrep Srares Government. ~~A phan is proposed that the United States Govern- ment should ‘construct railroads, under the clause of the coastitution providing for the establishment of the Pos office, and thus create a competition,which would emble them to transport the mails on their own term’ We are not sure but this is the best plan et ae be T eplaaa but we doubt whether Cave Johton has the e or: i Gwe ourage Or sagacity to propose Ovr Retations wrra Mextco—SenTIMeNTs aNd Dxsicns ov THe Umirep States Government—The last Union contains, from an‘anonymous correspon- dent, some sound and timeous suggestions relative. tothe manner in which Mexico should be met if she declares war. This,writer says, that “we should be prepared (under the auspices of the proper con- stitutional authority) to enter the field with a torce of at least forty-five thousand men. This force, he asserts, would finish the war in ong year. A great- er force would be an injurious expense ; a less, would not effect our objects with the promptitude, humanity, and efliciency demanded by the occa- sion. Our base of operations, he states, should be aline drawn nearly along the frontier of Texas, and | connecting through Aransas or Matamoras, with our naval forces. This line and the sea would consti- tute our entire base of operations. With the force proposed, or even a much inferior force, the capture of Matamoras would not be diflicult.j{Posts, at suit- able¢ points along the line of our base of operations on land, should be constructed, or strengthened where already existing, with all the material of War. The Union itself informs us that the government despatches are not more decisive than the private accounts from Mexico, but seems to be now quite of the opinion that war willcome. It adds that the Ex- ecutive is fully prepared for the worst, and that the most rigorous measures will be adopted,in case Mex- ico attempts to carry her threats into execution.— That 1s right—that is what the country and the cri- sis demand. anreve yt bie nee ‘Tue Recent Exections.~-We have now received official returns from the recent elections, both State and national, held in some of the Western and Southern States, satisfying us that the democrats not only hold their ground, bnt have gained con” siderably on the whigs. In Tennessee, the whig party has not been so powerful as it was in the Pre- sidential election, the democratic candidate for Governor being undoubtedly elected. In Congress, the democrats have gained slightly, so that they willhave a large majority in the next Congress. It seems, however, that neither of the two parties have come out in their full strength, in this State struggle, but that the great falling off has been amongst the whigs. It is well known that the whig never come out in full force except in Presidential elections. » From the result of these elections, being favor- able to the democrats, merit is, we see, claimed for the administration of Mr. Polk. We don’t see how that follows. We hardly yet know the cha- racter of Mr. Polk’s administration, and will not till he be in office a year at least, and till we see how he is going to prosecute the war with Mexico, The English journals, just received, appear to ex- pect a great deal from Mr. Polk’s energy and de- cision, of which he gave them a taste in his inaugu- ral. We hope their augury may be true, and that he may prove himself to be, indeed, a chip of “ old hickory.” From Porto Rico.—By the arrival of the Cor- delia, Hatch, from Ponce, advices have been re- ceived up to the 5th inst. Capt. H. informs us that afew days previous to his sailing, there had been three or four slight shocks of earthquake ; but from the frequent occurrences of these earthquakes, the people have become used to them, and therefore ex- vite no alarm. The weather had been good during his stay there, and the prospects favorable for next year’s crop. Sreamsuie Great Western.—The Great West- ern, hence for Liverpool, was passed on the 6th inst. in lat. 44 51, lon. 55. She left New York on the Bist ult. GrupertsviLie, Aug. 15, 1845. Atnear the close of the letter of your correspon- dent atSharon Springs, published in the Herald, on Monday, the tth instant, which has just reached me, I am referred to ina libellous and false asser- tion, Tassure you I never “bought Trusses” of any one at Canajoharie, and never paid a debt in any way by the aid of bankruptcy, and never made application to do so. Nor did I there speak to any boy in or about my carriage. I now ask you to refer to that letter editorially, and retract, in full, any such insinuation I trust, from what acquaintance we have had, that Theatricals. Pann Taeatae—Rs-Orenino.—The Park theatre re- opened last night forthe performance of the legitimate drama, and never did a theatrical season commence under happier auspices, although the leading feature of the evening was the “ Lady of Lyons,” a play which has been precented to the play-goers of New York many yet before the rising of the curtain the lower were filled, and the second tier and pit presented a good appearance. Before the close of the first act the lower boxes were crowded, the upper tier and pit well fill An immense proportion of ladies graced, with their presence ,the re-opening, and baptized, with their smiles, the new born theatrical season, With such an array of beauty as last night shone at the Park to encou_ rage a manager, he must inevitably succeed. But to the performance. The “Lady of Lyons,” with Mrs: Mowatt as Pauline, and Mr. Crisp as Claude Melnotte.— When the curtain rose and‘discovered Pauline, Mrs- Mowalt was most rapturously greeted by those who have before witnessed her chaste and beautiful perform, ances. Three’as hearty cheers as ever echoed among | the walls of “Old Drury,” were presented to her. The acquisition of such talent to the stage is truly encoura- ing to the lovers of the drama in its purity. Since she as been to Saratoga she has worn off that slight ner- vousness which was uttendant upon a debut, and she now returns,with all her former chasteness, beauty, and power of expression, and with a step and look as firm as though she had trod the stage for years. Mr. Crisp, as Claude, fully sustained the reputation he has gaine mator of that character, was most natural and correct. ene of the second act, where Jove, was certainty spoken in amuch more chaste and elevated style than is usually the good fortune of play goers to listen to. Mr. received a hearty welcome, and seemed vei me in the character of Col. Damas, He will be a decided favorite at the Park, and will fill, as well as can be filled, the position so long, honorably, and satis- fuctorily occupied by Mr. Chippendale. The parts of sustained by Mrs. Ver- Madame Deschappels, was wel non; Widow Melnotte, by Mrs. Barry; Beausant, by Mr. Fleming, and Glavis, by Mr. De Walden. At'the falling of the curtain, Mrs. Mowatt was loudly called for, and soon appeared, led on by Mr. C A beautiful boquet was thrown from one of the private boxes, which Mr. Crisp gracefally presented to Mrs. Mowatt. Her heart, through her eyes, spoke thanks, and they retired amidst rapturous applause. Before the farce, a rnd Pas de Forges was danced by the Miss Vallee’s, in their usual chaste and artistic style. The evening’s entertainments closed with the farce of a “ Roland for an Oliver,” with Mr. Bass as Sir Mark Chase, and Mr. Roberts as Hon. Alfred Highflyer. This was the first appearance of Mr. Roberts, and he was very well received. Maria Darlington was well sustained by Miss Moss, late of the Italian Oa On the whole, the promise of last eveni brilliant success forthe ensuing season. ‘e shall soon have Mr. and Mrs. Kean, Mr. Reeve, Brough and Mr. Hackett. This evening’s billis the ‘ Hone; with Mrs Mowatt as Juliana ; Mr. Crisp as the Duke; and Mr. Bass as Jacques—concluding with the farce o} the “Dumb Belle,” with Mr. Roberts as Vivian. We pre- dict a crowded hou ks was one of Boweny Turatne.—“ Pizarro,” and the “Shoemaker or Toulouse,” met last evening with the most cheering ap. plause, and the hearty welcome which both plays have received from the audience, has induced the Director to have them repeated to-night This is, indeed, a great treat for the lovers of the drama, and it is not surprising that such a good selection, supported as it is by talented artists draw nightly crowded houses. The beauty of the theatre, and its commodiousnes: also eal in the universal attraction; and the, whole united, will never failto bring on @ continuation of patronage. To the amateur this theatre strongly recommends itself, and all who have paid it a visit, unite in proclaiming it the best and most splendid in this city.

He was shortly in the docks. A physician near the ‘accord- inquest at the afterwards found floating was immediately sent for, and efforts were made to re- citate him, but without success. Verdict, death by Found Dead in Bed.—A German, whose name has not been ascertained, aged about 22 years, of intemperate habits, who has been employed since his arrivel in this country, ashorttime ago, by Mr. Heary Stube, corner of 28th street and Blooming |, a8 @ gi ir, wes this morning found dead in his bed. The coroner was called this evening to hold an inquest upon his body. Brooklyn City Intelligence.

She stated, that for the last five weeks he had given her money enough barely to sup- vorther—that he was corresponding with a woman ia Portland, Me., and wished that she should write to the father of the woman, stating that she was not married to Bragg. Upon her refusing to do this, Bragg told her he would live with herno longer. On her complaint he was arrested and committed to answer. Police Intelligence.

Nusto’s.—A capital saloon greeted Messrs. Rice and Brougham last evening. These two gentlemen, aided by T. Placide, Sefton, &c., kept the auditors in one continu- ous roar of laughter. Mr. Rice, as Otello, was the very essence of burlesque ; it was, as the picture catalogues have it, ‘ full of repose and highly finished.” Great taste is shown in the selection of the melo Miss Mathews and Mr. T. Placide did ample justice to their respective characters; and, indeed, the whole dramatis persone were on the qué vive, and kept up the ball with great spirit— Brougham’s Tom Moore—enough said ; it was the height of drollery.

Ericsson has entered into 8 stipulation that this new boat shall be capable ot Tunning at arate five miles an hour greater ‘then the average speed of the steamboat Empire, during the season of 1844, The arrangement of the engines is entirely different trom that of ordinary river boats, the whole of the machinery and boilers being place in the bottom, by which great stability is given to the boat, and more root obtained for the accommo- dation of passengers, the main deck being entirely unineunbered trom stem to stern.

Hacks anv Ca: Notwithstanding the vigilance of the Hack Inspector,fimpositions practised by drivers of hacks and cabs are becoming every day more frequent. Within the past week several cases have occurred, in which attempts at overcharge have been made by dri- vers. The impositions, too, are not confined to strangers, but in sey, cases have been practised upon our own citizens. Two gentlemen, a few evenings since, agreed with a cab driver to take them from Niblo’s, down Broadway, a distance less than a mile, the legal fare being fifty cents. ‘This they offered him, and in return received a volley of abuse, his demand being seventy- five cents. They however paid him fifty cents and left him. There wre, of course, many cases of imposition practised by drivers that never come to light. Ifour citizens, who know the rates of fare, would wish to pro- tect themselves and strangers against imposition, they On bringing offenders to justice. Legal rates of fare are established, and any driver demanding more is liable to a fin ten dollars, The fare for conveying a single passenger one mile or less is twenty-five cents, and twenty-five cents for every additional For any distance exceeding one mile two, fifty cents; and twenty-five for ditional passenger. Each passenger is entitled tothe arriage of one trunk, valise, carpet-bag,_port- manteau, or box, without any extra charge. It is re- quired by law, that the free card containing the num- ber of the vehicle and the legal rates of fare, should be placed in a conspicuous position, so that all pi can read In case this is not done, the driver is not entitled to any remuneration. It is to be hoped that our Hack Inspector will be still more vigilant, and our citi- zens more determined to stop the rascally impositions prasticed by hack and cabmen.

Let its sit and view the com- ny. Do you see that lovely girl with face turned From you, whose rich auburn bait falls im wild any e sive curls upon her shoulders? What a head! what a form! Is she not indeed magnificent?’ Now she moves this way with a step free and elastic, dressed most sump. tuously. Her face is one you must fall in love with, though there is an expression of drollery and malicious fun mingled with its otherwise beautiful character. Her eyes of darkest hazel, shaded by long silken lashes, spar- i nd her short curled upper to the features quite be- the bonny sunny South, and pos- and fire natural to the volup- 8 tious children of Georgi Thore, fits the syIphilike figure of the most graceful woman inthe room, but she is married. ‘There, too, are a bevy of our own sweet daughters of Gotham, chatting and laughing right merrily. ‘Two Baltimore beauties now attract ourattention, lovely and fascinating as usual. There are sentimental young ladies, from town and country, with their gallant cheveliers, whispering love and poetry, while their mammas and papas, in some dis- tant corner, watch their movements. “Then there were sighs the deeper for suppression, And stolen glances, sweeter for the theft, ‘And burning blushes, though for no trausgression, ‘Tremblings when met, and restlessness when left.” Tho gentlemen are all well dressed, and there are some curious characters among them. Do you see that fat man in a blue coat sitting on an ottaman? He is a modern financier! Shaving notes and pusing up fancy stocks to be sold to the uninitiated at the “ waked up” price, “as a particular favor,”have made him a prosperous man. rve him; he rises from his seat, and treads the room with the air ofa Rothschild.

The sellers are the largest operators in the street, and a class of brokers considered very shrewd observers of passing events, and of much foresight as to the probable condi- tion of the stock market. The movements of these spe- culators generally have great influence upon the small, er operators, and the way the big fish go the smaller fry follow. The Suffolk and Tremont Manufacturing Corporations at Lowell, have each declared a semi-annual dividend of ten per cent. By the arrival of the steamship Hibernia at Boston from Liverpool, we have commercial advices to the Sth inst. inclusive, being ten days later than those received by the Great Britain. The news is of very little impor tance. Very little change had taken place in the princi, pal markets, and the state of commercial affairs general. ly, so far as the interests of this country are concerned, continued in the usual prosperous state. A depression in the London money market had been experienced, pre- duced, probably, by the prospects of a bad harvest. The weather throughout Great Britain had, for several days previous to the departure of the Hibernia, been very unfavorable, and unless an immediate improvement took place, the grow- ing grain would be beyond recovery, and the result be ashort supply. There had been an advance in prices for grain in the principal markets, in anticipation of a pra- duction below the average. The quotations for American securities do not show any decline, but the demand was less active—unfavor” able advices from tl ide having checked, to some ex- tant, the improved feeling.

The rate of interest in London hed advanced from one quarter to one half per cent, according to the paper offered. The ruling rates, on the 4th inst., were 2} a2} per cent, and it was anticipated that the Bank of England would advance the rates still higher.. Every thing de pends upon the harvests, and until something more deci ded is known about the crops, it will be impossible to tell what will be the state of the money market or o¢ business generally. A short harvest must have a very unfavorable effect upon the existing prosperity of Great Britain, and do more in one season to retard and destroy many interests, now in a flourishing state, than any thing else. Any fluctuations in the currency, any derange. ment of trade,from any internal or external cause,may,for atime, unfavorably affect certain kinds of business, and ruin many parties engaged, but there would be no great distress, no wide spread suffering; whereas, a short har vest,even for one season, would bring want to many.e fire- side, and bring the laboring classes down tothe most pinching distress. The commercial world would feel more or less the effects of a destruction of the present commercial prosperity of Great Britain, and the benefit any country might derive from supplying England with grain to make up any deficiency inthe crops, would be but trifling compared with the unfavorable effect upon trade generally. Itis anticipated in London that money willfor some time to come, be more valuable thanit has been for some time past. The immense Railroad speculations on the continent have’ already affected the money market. So far as the railway speculations of the United Kingdom were concerned, they had very little effect the upon movement of the banks, otherwise than creating changes in the deposit department, but the speculations have ex* tended to the contemplated lines on the continent, and remittances to a large amount have already been made for investment. millions pounds sterling were to be remitted to Belgium and Holland on account of the railway lines recently undertaken in those coun- tries. In addition to the increased amount of capital absorbed by the railway speculations, and the advancing prices of breadstuffs, the increased imports into the country re- quire a larger amount of capital to control. All these things tend to advance the value and demand for money: The increase of capital is not in proportion to the in creased wants. Theinew system of banking, under which the Bank of England has for nearly twelve months, been in operation, has checked the facilities for making capital to supply any demand that may spring up, whether fictitious or real, and confined the bank to a strict limit, beyond which it cannot go. The banks of ‘Scotland and Ireland will soon come under a similar sys- tem, when the operations of all the banks in the United Kingdom will be so restricted that an inflation, beyond s certain point, and upon certain conditions, will be out of Notes issued.
