New York, Monday, March 16, 1986. Arrangements. The steam-ship Hibernia is now in her twelfth day, and we may expect to receive her news by Thursday or Fnday, or before. We stated, a few days since, that we had made arrangements to have the next news from Europe transmitted to us by the magnetic telegraph, from Bosten, as tar as the telegraph should be extended, and the remainder of the distance by express. These arrangements were made with Livingston & Wells, the enterprising express agents in Wall street; but we find that circumstances have inter- vened which will defeat our expectations in the lightaing line, for chis time On Saturday last, we received the following letter NEW YORK HERALD. The Next Foreign News and Expresses—Our | the time for the people to show a national feeling to the country. The first specimen and sample of public opinion trom this city, will be the first step that will give a tone to the whole Union. It will produce a powerful effect all over the Union, and with those parties we are now contending with. It will also, perhaps, in- cuce the President, and those who are now agitat- ing the question in Congress, to come to some con- clusion on the subject. New York Priors.—As the pilot question is now 4 occupying a great deal of attention in the legislauve | halls of some of the States, and also in Congress, it may not be amiss to give a brief history of the causes which have led to this discussion, and also the present state of the question.

It did not at first enter our mind that lightning was seldom to be had in the winter. It is only in the hot, sultry weather of the summer that we are blessed with a few flushes, to purify the at- mosphere. The Holy Alliance have made tremendous exer- tions to beat us, and we don’t know but they may succeed. Newspapers in Boston, New York, Phi- ladelphia and Baltimore, have entered into a coali- tion, and they have engaged all the routes between here and Boston, thrown open to them by our chari- table feelings, and our earnest desire to give the magnetic telegraph a fair trial, so far as we could it ig rather difficult for a single journal, even like the Herald, to compete with such a terrible opposi- tion as is thus arrayed against us. With the devil, engaged at an enormous expense, for their head, and eighteen or twenty papers, in four large cities, tor ‘heir tail, the Holy Alliance have strained their lazy nerves to the utmost tension, with the determination of knocking the Herald into a cocked hat, for an hour or two, that it may afterwards, come out brighter and clearer. Herald is to them, will appear from this fact. In- deed, we are beginning to think that Napoleon | himself was a little behind us, even in his greatest glory, for he never had such a combination against him as we have now against us. If we be beaten, we cannot help it; and if we can’t help it, who can? Napoleon himself met with reverses, and we expect the same. We must state, however, that we never intend going to St. Helena. We intend to give the Alli- ance a few more ideas in newspaper enterprize, to show them that the spirit within is not yet crushed. We have started them, and we mean to keep them on the move ; and to carry out this intention, we have arranged the following expected packets, in their regular order of sailing, and which are now What a formidable rival the | and that of the Mexico—two emigrant ships. These shipwrecks were caused by a violent hurri- | rendered a view of an object, but at a short distance, | impossible. In fact, the storm of the year 1836 was | as violent, and nearly as fatal to property and life, as | the storm which caused the loss of the John Minturn | and other vessels, a short time since. The calami- | | tous effects of that gale, as was to be expected, caused a thrill of horror in the whole community: Previous to and at that time, there were some differences between the Wall street philoso- | party spirit being very high, the opponents of the looking upon the latter as dependant upon them, at- tempted to coerce the pilots into voting as their op- | ponents dictated. These men, who are toa man | | democrats, rebelled against this interference with their political privileges, and refused to sacrifice their right of voting as they themselves thought proper, to any set of men. Hence we date the | commencement of the unholy warfare against the | pilots, that has been relentlessly carried on ever since. Inthe meantime, the Bristol and Mexico were wrecked, and the opponents of the pilots lost | no time in using the excitement thus occasioned, | for their own advantage, in furtherance of their per- | secution of the pilots. Stories the most exaggera- ted were immediately circulated, and the lamenta- ble sacrifice of life and property, attributed fo the negligence and incompetency of the pilots. A portion of the press was brought to bear against them. Peti- their opponents, and their newspapers, and sent to Congress, which was then in session, praying that the pilot business of this port might be thrown open to all persons,who, in the opinion of the Pilot Com- | missioners, were competent for the business.

On Thursday last, point the mail was landed. The Albany papers of phere and the pilots, on political matters; and Saturday, state that the water had risen nearly to a i level with the dock, and that a freshet was antici- pilets, composed, as they alwayshave been, of whige, pated ia consequence of the heavy rains.

There has been a very material improvement in the stock market during the past week, and the improve- ment may be for a time sustained, and, perhaps, increas- ed; but the position of some of the leading operators is such, that they must continue to bear the market, and it is possible they may succeed in depressing prices of pal speculative stocks in this market, for each day of the past week, and the closing prices for the week previous. In some of the fancy stocks there has been an improve- ment, while the State atocks and other really good secu- tities have been very steady. The transactions in the early part of the week were rather limited, but the mar} ket closed more active, and prices were very firm, with an upward tendency :— Quotations ror THE Parncira.

The money market, for some little time past, has been comparatively easy, but it is now steadily tightening, as the demand for money for the purchase of foreign ex- change and for the payment of duties at the Custom- House, has been quite large, and must increase asthe season advances. The duties paid the past week,amount- ed to nearly nine hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and for the present week will not fall far short of the same amount. This will probably be the heaviest month for duties in the whole twelve, and the revenue from customs cannot be much less than three millions of dollars, at this port alone, for the month.
