NEW YORK HERALD. Se New York, Thursday, March 26, 1846. Agents tn the Interior. Micuart Tucxen is the agent forthe New York Daily and Weekly Herald, in Poughkeepsie, N. Y- | | The Trial of Tirrell. We give on our first page, a report of the firs, day’s proceedings of the trial of Tirrell, for the mur- der of Maria Ann Bickford, at Boston, which caused such a great sensation some time since, It is our intention to give a full and graphic ac- count of each day’s proceedings, and the latest intel- ligence of this trial, to the last moment, This ex- traordinary case,has a striking resemblance, in its details, to the Ellen Jewett murder, in New York, aome years back, and has caused near'y as much excitement in Boston, as that murder did in this city. It is said the counsel for Tirrell intend to prove that the unfortunate girl committed suicide. | | | State of the American Newspaper Press—Its Enterprise. The great commotion caused among the different journals in this city, and throughout the country, on the arrival of every steamer and packet ship from Europe, is characteristic of journalism at the pre- sent day. The system of running expresses, in order to obtain late news at the earliest momen, possible, has been but lately introduced into the United Siates, and now may be said to form a part of the newspaper business. These expresses were the consequence of the revolution in journalism that was brought about by the independent press, about ten years since, in this city, and has been continued from that time until the present day. Before the era of the independent press, the old fashioned six penny papers had a monopoly of jour- nalism on this continent, and conducied their busi- ness with the ‘smallest outlay posgible. News, no matter how important soever it might be, was not published until the vessel had reached and been made fast tothe dock. In fact, the accommodation | of the public was never thought of, and the little benefit derived from the journals of that time, had to be paid for at an extravagant rate. As soon as the independent press entered on the field, and so- licited a portion of public patronage, a decided difference between those of the old regime ‘and those of the new, was apparent to all. The latter brought into requisition an amount of enterprise and perseverance never before known in this country,and which took by surprise the public, as well as thé editors of the old papers. The effect of this was immediately seen in the immense support given to the new papers, and a corresponding re- duction 1n the circulation of the old ones. Ina day, as it were, a revolution was accomplished in journalism in this country, which is going on, gathering strength as it proceeds, till in a few more years, the whole field will be clear of the old fash- ioned and lazy sixpenny, and will be occupied by the cheap, independent press. A great improvement in the old fashioned journals 18 also apparent, and a greater regard is paid to the public than was ever before%seen. Theeerious,inroads on their subscription lists by the independent press, roused them up from the state of inertia and imbe- cilty they had been in for a long time; and they had, in self defence, to follow the lead of the indepcn- dent press, and bring into use a portion of that enter- prise which marked the career of their opponents. Still, however, they were beaten by the indepen- dent press in every description of enterprise, and particularly by the Herald, in running .expresses with late European news, at an enormous expens*, | and sending it over the whole country from eigh- | teen to twenty-four hours ahead of them. The | Herald was the first paper to commence this great enterprise, and our subscription list satisfactorily assures us, that our efforts to serve the public have been appreciated. The extraordinary success that has attended our | exertions, as might naturally be expected, created 4 great amount of envy and jealousy in our rivals, and compelled them, after they had resorted to every | other means to crush us, to follow in the track that | we had Inid out. Accordingly, they have recently | made a few efforts to compete with us in this de- | scription of enterprise. They did not, however, meet us in a fair competition, but combined by dozens in five principal cities, with the intention of prostrating us, and with what success the public already is aware. Although we have now combin- ed against us, an alliance numbering some sixteen papers, published in Boston, New York, Philadel- phia, Baltimore and Washington, we are not to be frightened from our course ; but on the contrary, we will continue our exertions in that, as well as in every | other respect, and do the utmost in our power for our subscribers, in return for the libera and unpre- cedented patronage they have awarded us. These exertions we consider ourselves bound to continue, | not only from motives of policy, but from pride too. We claim the honor of introducing this enterprise into journalism in the United States, and as long as the Herald is in existence, we will continue it. It at any time we should be distanced in this business, | and the public should get foreign news, of conse- | quence, through the exertions of the Holy Alliance, ahead of the Herald, we shall still claim the honor | | | and the first intimation of being near apd, was the richest and the handsomest goods, and the dis- | cnliar sty most beautiful we have ever seen. Come along, Liverpool Packet Ship Henry Clay Ashore— Six or Bight Lives Lost. The’ packet ship Henry Clay, Capt. Nye, from Liverpool, from which port she sailedo n the 22d of February, tor New York, went ashore on Tuesday night about twelve o’clock, on Squan Beach, about one mile north of the place where the John Mintum snd other vessels were wrecked, on the night of the 15th of February. The ship struck on the outer bar—heaved over, and lays between the under tow and outer bar, broadside to the beach, having heeled a little to- wards the shore. All her masts were cut away at 8 o’clock on Wednesday morning, and she remained in an eesy position. A large part of the cargo has | been thrown overboard, and it is possible the hull may be prevented trom going to pieces, as it lays in «kind of quick sand, and was rapidly burying itself, Immediately after the ship struck, three seamen went | ashore inthe life boat, witha line, and returned again to the vessel, but on account of the floating spars, could not get near enough to the ship to take off the passengers, and they were compelled to drop themselves into the boat by the line. Eight or ten | cabiz passengers were taken on board in this way, and were proceeding towards the shore, when the boat was atruck by a sea and shattered to pieces» and only two (the 2d mate and one seaman) were saved, ond they were taken on shore insensible, but by the care and attention of those on shore, were brought to lite.

This exquisite chef d'cuvre | of Adolphe Adam is the most delightful opers that has ever been performed in the country. The plot is some- | what intricate and extremely intererting—the music is of every variety, but at all times charming—now soft and sentimental, avon wildly mirthful, and again the very spirit of martial emotion ; the language, too, 1s re- markably expresmve. We hardly know how to select be guided by the rapturous applause which springs | impulsively from the audience, our highest admiration | must be accorded to the song, “So gentle and kind)” and the rondo, “ Brewers so gay,” in the first act ; “The mighty John of Castleton,” and the cantabile, “ Soon to our home returning,” in the second; and the grand finale, “ Valiant heroes.” But the fact is, every point has been brought to such perfection that it is almost im possible to choose, and every hearer, no matter what he his taste, will be sure to have some particular favor- ite.

Pourticat, ABotrtronism.—It is well known that | the abolitionists of the North are at present divided | into two opposing factions. The one is led bya | philosopher called Garrison, and consists of the old women of both sexes, who are dissatisfied with alj | the existing arrangements of society, and are dream- | ing of vain reforms in the future. This class which, particularly in the New England States, is a large | one, eschew all political action, and intend to ac- | complish their end by what they call “revolution. | 12ing public sentiment,” We. The other branch of the abolitidh party 18 the po- liucal abolitionists, or as they call themselves, the “liberty party.” This faction separated some years | ago from the main body, and since that time have been at sword’s points with them. Theyare fol- lowers of James G. Birney, who was run in 1844 as their’ Presidential candidate. It is needless to deny the fact that in the Northern States this party is increasing in numbers. At the last Presidential election they polled, in thi? State } alone, about 15,000 votes. Their leaders are gene- | rally ambitious, and many of them needy men, who have ran the plank of the other parties, have been divearded by them, or failed to secure their person al ends by longer remaining in them. In neatly, if not all the Northern States, this par- ty has now an organization; and by wild appeals to the prejudices of the Northern people, are drawing into their ranka many from the other parties.
