NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Sunday, January 45, 1846. ‘The News from England. The recent news from England which we pub- lished in yesterday’s and continue in to-day’s paper, and which came by the Hibernia trom Liverpool to boston, is very singular, very exciting, and very de- | clsive lu France and England, the President’s Message, with allthe documents relative to our fereign and domestic policy were received, and the impression produced on the newspaper press, and on individuals in both countries, as far as we can gather from our private correspondence, is decidedly favorable to the maintenance of peace, leading every mind to believe that it will be the last thing thought of by the British government, represented by any party, to break the peace with thiscountry. Cotton on the ene side, and the corn laws onthe other, have moderated the temper of the British government, and pre-disposed them to overlook a great many hard words from this side of the water. On the Oregon question, as far as we are able to judge by the newspaper press, there is. an evi- dent dispositigu on the part of the British government and the people, to compromise the matter on mode- rate terms; and the important article in the London Times, points out the mode of settlement, by repre. senting the British government as willing to compro- mise on the proposition offered by Mr. Gallatin du- ring the presidency of Mr. Adams. That proposi- tion was based on the 49th parallel of latitude, giv- ing the whole ‘of Vancouver's Island to England, and the right of way up the Columbia to the northern portion of their territories. If the British govern ment would add to this proposition, and consent to give us the free navigation of the St. Lawrence, we presume there would be no difficulty in settling the question to the satisfaction of all parties. But the great point of difference between the two countries appears to be the tariff question. The British Press, of ail parties, speaks in the highest terms of Mr Polk’s sentiments on the tarifl, and even commend the general tenor of the message, although it denounces it regarding the sentiments concerning the annexation of Texas. It is generally, also, believed that the presentCabinet will be more ta- vorably disposed to maintaming unbroken the peace between the two countries at all hazards, than the new Cabinet which was attempted to be tormed by Lord John Russell. Indeed it is evident that the Oregon question was the principal cause of preventing Lord John Russell from forming a Cabinet. Earl Grey, one ofthe Whig leaders, and a friend of peace, refused to have any connection with a Cabinet in which Lord Palmers- ton,—the bunkum man of England—a sort of Sena- tor Allen on the other side of the water,—was to be amember. This led to a premature dissolution of op Recent Express—Narotnon at Moscow. | —We acknowledge the corn—we have been beaten | by the combined press of New York, but they are | indebted for the victory to the elements. The | snow and ice on the railroads have given them a partial triumph—one victory in twenty defeats—a thing which we shall take care to guard against in future, | For the purpose of obtaining the news by the Hi- bernia, a3 soon as possible, we made the most per- fect arrangements for an express to leave Boston immediately on the arrival there, and convey the , same to this office ahead of all our contemporaries. Our arrangements were so complete, that we | thought it next to impossible for them to fail. They did, however, partially fail, and our express did not arrive until about two hours and a half after the express of the combined journals in Wall street. This partial failure was owing to causes beyond the influence of any human agency. We will state a few facts, premising, however, that if our arrangements had not partially failed as they did, | we would have beaten the Wall street press in a | manner beyond all precedent. Immediately on our express agent receiving our despatches, he started from Boston ahead of all other expresses. On reaching Worcester, he was fifteen minutes ahead of them, and if the locomo- tive had been in readiness for Norwich, as we con- templated and agreed upon, we would have gained from three and u half to four hours ahead of all others. This was our calculation. Our agent, on reaching Worcester, was mortified to find that the train due at 5o’clock the evening previous, and the steamboat train due at 5 o’clock the same morning, had not yet arrived. He was consequently obliged to wait for the steamboat train to come in, which it did at halt-past 12 o’clock. He then took the train for Springfield, supposing that he would go to New Havenin the regular train. He had, however, to wait for it two hours more, and did not arrive at New Haven till 9o’clock. Arriving at New Haven, he chartered the steamboat New Champion, and, with the aid of the indefatigable Captain Snow, who had fired up two hours previously, started with | a full head of steam for New York, full of hope, | notwithstanding the previous mishaps. The boat | proceeded down the Sound at a rate never equalled | before on that route, until it reached Throgg’s | Neck, and there another obstacle intervened. The | river was so completely choked with ice at this | point, that it was impossible to push the boat | through. Our express agent got ashore at Throgg’s ' | Neck, and came from there the rest of the way by | that Cabinet, and paved the way for the return of | Sir Robert Peel and his colleagues to office, with more practicable views than he entertained before the change. It 1s very evident, therefore, from every thing be- fore us from the other side of the water, that the peaceful relations existing between this country and England will continue for some time, that no diffi, culty will take place on the Oregon question, that <ome new commercial arrangements will be formed by each country conducive to the interests of both, and that nothing but the action of the American Government will lead to a breach of the peace. These views and feelings will preserve the peace of the world for some time to come. Yet there are some elements at work, showing themselves occasionally, which prove that the great crisis is still in prospect, at no remote time, in the European monarchies. The English journals continue to berate this country on account of the annexation of Texas, and denounce it as a piece of plunder and public robbery. This involves the irreconcilable variance in the views entertained by both countries onthe subject of popular rights and popular government. On this side of the Atlantic, we believe that every separate community has a_ right to connect itself with the policy and government which it thinks would best promote its happiness. Texas, an inde- pendent aration, thought that it would enjoy more peace and prosperity, if connected with the United States, than it would as a separate nation, and we believe that it had a perfect right to connect itself with us, But this is denied on the other side of the water, and 1s called plunder and public robbery. Such views never can be established in this country. This difference in opinion, therefore, is ealculated to create serious disturbance in Europe, for the United States have a mighty influence on all the na- tions ofthe world. Every message that comes from our Presidents is a revolutionary document ad- dressed to them all, and although the present or the next generation may not see it, the time is coming when the example of this country will produce in Europe one of the most dreadful and momentous revolutions that ever took place. Atpresent, the prospect is, that we will have years of peace and prosperity before us, and all ought to make the best of it while it exists. ‘Tuearricats —The question is solved—the Park can compete with the first theatres in Europe. The performance of ‘Richard the 3rd,” for sixteen consecutive nights, has fully established the fact. This brilliant achievement, unparalleled in the his- tory of the stage, will awaken the dramatic genius of | However, notwithstanding all our mishaps, we are | same. We possess recuperative energies which the our favored land, destined at no distant day to give | birth toa poet, who, to the vigor of his character and the splendor of his poetry, shall add a moral of which the mighty Shakspeare had but a distant glimpse of—of teelings more liberal, and exploits more soaring than ever graced the page of that im- | mortal bard. We hail the present magnificent re- vival of “ Richard the 3d,” with gratification—we haal it as the dramatic mirror of the future— “That bears a glass Which shows us many more.” In spite of the great attractions of the season, in spite of balls and concerts, in spite of those acquire- ments of art which render home society so much more attractive, and individuals 90 much more ca- pable of amusing themselves and others than here- tofore, in spite of the Snow King, whose reign is omnipotent, the Park Theatre has for the last three weeks become a place of greater fashionable resort than we ever remember since its foundation. The credit of this revolution, in theatricals, may be tairly divided between the management and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kean. The correctness and brilliancy of the spectacle have dazzled all eyes,while Mr’ Kean’s performance of Gloster has gained the most absolute sway over the opinions and feel- ings of the critics. [tis a triumph of mind exem- lified in the quietness, originality, dignity, and passion with which he invests the character. We admire his various inflexions of voice, the force of his emphasis, the just proportion of pathos, not car- ried improperly into rant, but governed by the oc- easion. All these rise so naturally, that the part seems to act the actor, instead of being acted by him. This is the perfection of the art. We have trequently spoken of Mr. Kean’s merits and defects, and need not now pursue the subject. We freely ive praise to the deserving, and censure to the dull and presuming. We show the many why they ed Navat.—U. 8. ships Raritan, Captain Gregory, and Boston, Cuptain Pendergast, and U. 8. brig Bainbridge, Lieut.

But as it is, this partial defeat affects our nerves but very slightly.

In- stead of remaining beeten, if beaten we areat all, we will gird up our loins, and act on the offensive again. The field is wide still, and offers advantages for the display of our enterprige, not at all curtailed by this arrival. The next half dozen arrivals will be more important than the Hibernia’s, and with our splendid fleets and new schooners,we mean to keep on our accustomed course, beating all that come in our way. The Holy Alliance are indebted to the devil and the snow-storm alone for their success. DgraRrTURE or THE Genit.—The new steamship Genil, which had been unavoidably detained, left * the dock yesterday, at 12 o’clock, and proceeded to sea, bound for Havana via Charleston, having on board files of our paper up to this date, with the news from Europe. She is expected to make the triphence to Havana in s1x days, stopping at Charles- ton to take in passengers, who are waiting for her. This steamer has been constructed for the owners, in the most substantial manner, expressly for the sea, by Mr. Wm. H. Webb, of this city. She has two engines, with the latest improvements, built by Messrs. T. F. Secor & Co. Her cabins are elegant- ly finished, in the same style as our best packet | ships. The joiners’ work is by Mr. Robert Latou. | After her arrival at Havana, she will proceed | round to the south side of the Island, and run re- | gularly between Batabano and St. Jago, touching at the intermediate ports. Tue Inramy or Derarninc Letrer Bacs.—Will | the Wall street press rub up their recollections a lit- tle, and tell us how many letter bags their news col- lectors kept on board their large news boats for whole nights, in order to give their papers an oppor” tunity to publish exclusive news? Will they say that they never did detain a bag, when, too, it con- tained thousands, instead of hundreds of letters ? Will they produce affidavits to prove that the private letters and parcels have never been detained for | es hours away from their owners ?

Pank Tuxstar.—The loveliness, beauty aud fashion of the city graced the boxes of the Park last evening, on the occasion’of Mrs. Kean’s benefit, and last appear- ‘ance of Mr. and Mrs. Kean this season. This was the sixteenth night of the representation of Richard III., the most gorgeous pageant ever produced on the American stege, and for the getting up of which Mr. Kean and the management of the Park Theatre deserve unquali- fied praise. Those carping critics who are continually esserting that the New York public bave no theatrical taste, and who are so ioud in denunciation of this popu- lar establishment, will find some difficulty in reconciling thié fact with their oft repeated declarations. The en tertainments last ning closed with the delightful farce of “ Perfection,” in which Mrs. Kean played Kate O’Brien, and truly looked, as she certainly is—perfec- tion. As the curtain fell at the conclusion of the trage- dy, the loud and earnest applause of the audience called Mr. Kean before the curtain, who addressed them nearly as follows :— £8 AND GENTLEMEN : the afterpiece, or | should hi | rs.

It was then attempted to account for the various phenomena. But we find that a great deal , of cumbrous machinery was used to explain the simple: henomena. This continued till the time of Copernicus who gave us the true system. This was the end of the second era. The commencement of the third was when Newton by tha discovery of the law of gravitation applied mathematics to the astronomical phe- nomena and calculated them with accuracy.

The Senate met at the usual hour; prayer—jour- nal. Senator Beekman moved that the Senate ad- journ till to-morrow morning. He suggested to Senators that a meeting of the State Agricultural Society was being held in the assembly chamber, and that many Senators were desirous of attending the meet- ing. Motion lost. Petitions followed. A great number , of petitions for the abolition of capital punishment have been received by both branches, but as yet no action has been had in the matter. One was presented by Mr. Scovil to-day. Mr. Johnson, as chairman of the Co mittee on Claims, reported against the ‘petition of Me: House, Munson, Heart and Sayre, for relief. Me: Emmons and Young were in favor of the report. J. Spencer, after stating some eerie) of law and right, moved that the report be tabled, and it was tabled. Re- rts by Mr. Hard, in favor of Printing the reports of the fodian agent and the trustees of the State Lunatic Asy- Inm, were also tabled; ss also » resolution by Mr. Fol- som defining the intent of the law relative to the print- ing of the “usual number” ef any document. Then the Senate went into committee, ostensibly for the consideration of Messrs. Porter & Wrights’ printing bills, but really to freshen and protract the strictly ersonal Gebate in which Senators were e: d yester- lay.

He moved that the question be put. His motion was not noticed at all, and Mr. Porter occupied the “floor, together with Messrs.

By the arrival of the steamship Hibernia, at Boston from Liverpool, we have advices from all parts of Europe twenty-two days later than those received by the ship Liberty at this port. All have been very agreeably disappointed in the tone and complexion of the news, it being of a highly favorable character, in a poli- tical and commercial point of view, and must havea very favorable effect upon our markets generally. The London money market improved very re- pidly upon the re-establishment of Sir Robert Peel’s ministry, and consols advanced three per cent. above prices ruling at the date of the resigna- tion of the conservative cabinet. This shows that confi- dence returned with the old premier, and the re-astab- lishment of the government upon the former basis was looked upon very tavorably by the financial and com. mercial classes. The corn law question was the princi pal topic in all circles, and the excitement in relation to that measure was such, that the Oregon question had hich the Jewish Senator swallows his words,” said Mr. C. “I retract een almost lost sight of. The leading party papers, however, have taken a very favorable view of the Presi- dent’s message, and all fears of war with Great Britain are therefore at anend. A settlement of the question upon the terms proposed, viz : the 49th degree, is more Probable now than ever before, and the differences that now exist between the two countries, are in a fair way of being amicably arranged upon the basis of a eompre- hensive commercial treaty. ‘The transactions in American securities in the London markei, had been, just previous to the departure of the steamer, very lorge. It is stated that heavy amounts had been invested in state stocks, for remittance to the Uni- ted States. U. S. 6's were quoted at 90 ; New York 6's & 6's, 68; Pennsylvania 5%, 62.064; Ohio b's & 0's, 87; indiana 5's, 37 ; Louisiana 5's, Baring &Co., 80082; Ala- bama—sterling bonds—6's, 75 077 ; New York City 6%, 90a 91; U. 8. Bank, 20s. The large sales of American securities in London were made on American eecount. It appears that large orders from this side went out with the President's message, to purchase as soon as the effect of that document upon the market price of these stocks had reached itgheight. Large purchases were made to ful fil these °'ders, at prices, in some instances, several per Cent. above those current in this market. These opera- tions hed a very good effect upon the London market, as they created a confidence in these securities greater than before existed. The continental money markets were ina very favora- | ble condition, and gradually improving. In Hamburg, where the rate of interest early in December was eight Per cent, the rateat the latest date was only four, and the amount of capital seeking employment very large. The railway mania was rapidly declining, and it ‘Was supposed that the capital withdrawn from these in- Yestments and the deposites on contemplated lines will seek employment in commercial pursuits, and possibly Produce some specul.tive movement in some of the staples.

The effect of the news upon our markets has been of the most favorable charecter. It has been greater upon stocks then any thing else yet.
