It will be illustrated with one or two important maps, and contain ali the news, from all parts of this continent, that may reach the Herald office to the hour of publication The Here m sh o'clock on " Steam Ship Great Britain. ‘This steamer is in her fourteenth day, and may, therefore, be hourly expected to arrive. She will tering three days later intelligence than we re- ceived by the Hibernia; it is looked for with the greatest interest and anxiety by our commercial men. News from the Army. The next intelligence from the Army, under General Taylor, is expected to be of the most im- portant and exciting character. It is supposed that a battle between our troops and the Mexicans has been fought, ere this,at Monterey, and the par- | ticulars are now daily and anxiously looked for by every one. ‘The Progress of Ctvilization.—The Wars of the Great Powers of the Earth, it is @ singular fact that, notwithstanding the general principles of the age are in favor of peace and closer commercial relations, four of eatest nations of the earth, though on terms muty with each other, yet are each, at the present moment, engaged in war on the soil of other countnes, England, France, Russia, and the United States, whose united armies, fleets, and wealth, would sutiice toconquer or purchase the remaining {portions of the globe, are severally carrying on an invasive war upon governments inferior to themselves in power and in means of defence. England wages her war of conquest in Hindoostan and South Africa; France sends her armies to Algiers and the islands of the Pacific ; Russia pours her myriad of troops through the de- files of Circassia ; while the United States encir- Rete Syn and her provinces by sea and \by and. In some respects a striking similarity exists in the causes and the most apparent results of these several wars. They are carried on upon the soil of the weaker party—they afford no opportuni- fies of pitched battles on a scale with those which in the commencement of the present century, caused thrones to totter and fall, which shook to the foundation the social interests, of the world, and were attended with the outpouring of the blood of milllons—they create but little excite- ment beyond their own immediate circuits ; and one andall will end in the extension of the territory of the stronger power. The powerful influence of enlightenment and gigantic strength possessed by the more civilized nations, seems predestined to draw gradually within the circle of their own domain the control of the less advanced territo- ries of the earth, till the latter become eventually a partand portion of the former; and the very ministers who originated and proclaimed loudest the necessity of a balance of power, are actively engaged in the organization of means practically at variance with the theoretical doctrines they profess to adopt and uphold. perfide Albion for her cupidity, at the same time | grasping the territories of a defenceless Queen ; England holds up her right hand with a warning gesture towards the aggressions of her rebellious transatlantic child, while, with the leit, she applies the match to the cannon which mows down thou- sands of a fleei: rmy, and turns the Sutlej into a river of blood ; America utters a cry of sympa- thy for the hunted Circassian, but is forced to chastise the offending and despicable Mexican. With the justness or right of any of the con- tending parties we have at present nothing to Each undoubtedly can furnish “ reasons as plenty as blackberries” in favor of their own pro- ceedings, and justifying the course they pursue ; but the effects of these wars of redress or aggres- sion are in one and all the same ; they hasten the advance of universal knowledge. Meetings may be held by the peace parties, fanatics may deplore the existence of national disagreements, and poli- ticians may condemn the policy of the anta- gonist administration, for carrying on a war, with all the invective epithets contained in their vocabulary ; but ifthe purposes of these de- nunciations, indeed, be the extension of civiliza- tion and religious liberty, these very wars which they rail against, are, if not the pleasantest, the most efficient workers of their own designs.— Every shot that is fired, or sword uplifted, tends to dissipate the gloom of ignorance now oversha- dowing so large a portion of the globe,and though the measures used are those of coercion, yet we n this case believe that “ the end sanctifies the means,” and if, perhaps, ‘“ evil is done,” itgig “* that good may come.” +64 Not one of the powers above spoken of, which is invaded by the others, but is inferior in know- ledge, in the possession of liberty, in enlighten. ment, as well as in strength and wealth to their opponents ; in faet, the absence ofthe latter qua- lities is mainly owing to their inferiority in the | former respects, and the more they associate with | Jigry pf th those far beyond them in the blessings of civi France upbraids | pondence in yesterday’s paper, was a report o the conference between the chiefs of the Winne- | bage Inaians now in Washington, and the Com- missioners appointed on the part of the United States, to treat with them about the cession ot the lands at present occupied by the tribein lowa, and their removal to some tract of land more re- mote from the confines of civilization. The pro- position made by the United States Commission- ers was by no means satisfactory to the red men, and they consequently asked time to consider it, They were to have given their answer yesterday. We trust that our government will not deal too | harshly with these poor men. This is, we be- lieve, the third time they haveremoved from their ‘lands and holdings atthe instance of the Uni- ted States, and the hardship of so many remo- vals is sufficiently annoying, without the bargain | being at the same time too exacting. There will be nothing lost by treating them liberally; and it is beneath the dignity of our government to | drive too hard a bargain with men who cannot help themselves, and who must accede to our terms, whether such terms be agreeable to them or not. | Weare convinced that the Indians have been hardly dealt with, in their various treaties with successive administrations. They are obliged to remove from place to place whenever it is the | will and pleasure of the United States so to order them; und they have been in general most wretchedly compensated for the losses they sus- , tained by our encroachments. When the red man will have melted away from the face of the earth, we will have reason to repent that our po- licy towards him has not been more lenient. | We trust that in the present instance our Go- | vernment will pursue a more liberal policy to- wards the Indians, than has been the wont with | preceding Administrations. Tue Post Orrick Acain.—We are constantly in | receipt of letters from subscribers, assuring us that they never receive a copy of the Herald. The | complaints from those who receive it irregularly } are “in numbers numberless,” but there are | many who never receive itat all. | Now, we have been so long accustomed to this | annoyanee, that we have at length brought our- | selves to leok upon it with all possible equanimi- ty, and with a stoicism sublimely philosophical. We have entered into all manner of disquisitions on the singular phenomena presented in the pre- | sent systematic mismanagement of the post-oflice. Regard'ng most of these phenomena, we have ar- rived at tolerably satisfactory conclusions ; but there is one thing that still puzzles us, and that is, | where do all the missing papers go to? What be- comes of them? Whocetsthem? To any one answering these questions [satisfactorily, we pro- mise a liberal reward—perhaps a seat in some State Convention. | It has been suggested that the clerks and post- | masters appropriate them. But we would very | | cheerfully send the paper to those clerks and post- masters who are too poor to subscribe for it, sooner than have our subscribers so annoyingly disappointed. If, indeed, this be the true cause of | the failure of the Herald, we now give notice that we will mail a copy of the paper regularly to every clerk or post-master who has hitherto been in the habit of appropriating our subscriber’s papers, if | such clerks and post-masters will only send us their names and address. We furthermore pro- | | mise not to peach, and to ask no questions. We have made up our minds to endure this outlay until heaven send us another Post-master Gene- | ral. Theatrical. Pan TueaTax.—The Keans have returned from their engagement at Philadelphia, to appear again fora short | period on our boards. They were warmly received last | evening in Colman’s sterling play of “The Jealous Wile.” Mrs. Kean’s acting was exquisitely beautiful, | natural, spirited, and effective, and more than realized | fin the expectations which had been raised. It was in truth a delightful entertainment, and its repetition willbe hailed with a gratification rarely elicited on the stage.— Mr, Kean’s Mr. Oakley was one of his happiest efforts, and perhaps of all his parts in comedy, the one in which Put Wnevenacors —In cur Washington corress"|7 #7 | from would be to the delinquent’s ae ee Ma.

The programme, we perceive, is entirely different from any hitherto offered, and the talent engaged to assist him is of the highest or- der, It will be the last entertainment in this city previ- ous to his departure for Boston, and of course thousands will avail themselves of the only remaining opportunity of hearing the great maestro. Tue AtHamna continues to be fashionably attended, and the entertainments give universal satisfaction. Miss Hiffert has @ magnificent voice, and is rapidly becoming a favorite. Her talent and becoming deportment willen sure her success. In addition to the usual attractions those clever little trots, the Misses Hardwick, od 5 and 8 years, are nightly eliciting applause by their excellent singing arid naive performances. We hear that a novel and peculiar entertainment is in preparation, which will create a sensation in the music loving and pleasure seek- ing classes. With such able tacticians as Corbyn and J.oder, the Alhamra must flourish. Sporting intelligence. Centrevitte Covnse, L.

The first piece of sport on the programme was a purse of $50, mile heats, best three in five, under the sad- dle, for which six animals were entered; but, when called for, only three were in readiness to take the track ; the owners ofthe other three, knowing that the chances were against them, prudently kept their horses in the shade. ‘At the rap of the judge's mace for the horses to come forth, the sorrel gelding John Moffat, the bay gelding Tom Moore, and the gray mare Flora, wore’ found ready for action, cocked and primed — These animals appeared in very excellent cendition, Moffat being the favorite against the field, at two to one. ‘The judges ogain called for the horses to prepare for the wart’ but the riders appeared in no hurry, andit re- quired the united powers of the trio on the’ stand to bring them to the score. When the ridersca: ithin speek distance, the judges laid down the rules of trot- ting to them, and stated that the slightest deviation there- joss.

Before ma- king the turn at the gate, fom Moore broke up, which left him about thirty yards behind Moffat—t playing the dancing game considerably in the re: tween the quarter and half mile poles, Tom Moore went to work ina fine square mauner, and’ seemed to be co- ming up with Motiat, who was making the best of his way tor home. Shortly after passing the three quarters, Moffat broke, and in an instant Tom was up with hin— went in front, and continued in that wa: me, Moffat being unable to regain his position. During all this time the mare was pushing along behind, evidently try ing to save her distance, but it was out of her power. In fact she appeared to be like the Dutchman wife—“No great shakes.” Tom Moore won the heat in 2 453g, Moffat four or five lengths behind, the mare distance: Seconp Heat.—Tom Moore now had the pole, and at the first attempt they got the word and were off, Mofiat with the le efore they reached the quarter, Tom Moore made a very bad break, which put Moffat ahead of him all of 100 yards ; but ‘Tom was put to his work again, and at the half he was not more than half that i the rear, and gaining rapidly onhis adversary. ing the three quarters, Moffat broke up, an up with him ; a struggle eusued for a moment, when Moffat broke ‘up again, Tom going in front ; but in lead- ing to stand, crossed the track in front of Motlat, which would have given the purse to the latter, had the judges exacted the full penalty, OF such conduct ; but after que deliberation, they decided that taking the heat from Tom would be punishment enough, and announced to the crowd that Moftat won the heat, in 2.48. Among the bet- ting men, Meffat was the favorite still ; and notwith- standing he had not, the two previous heats, given his friends any thing to rely on, still he was ata premium, and considerable money was laid out on him.

Tu Sreamsmir Great Westernx.—This fine vessel takes her departure on her regular trip on Thursday next, the 8th inst. She takes out be- tween seventy and eighty passengers,among whom are the Hon. George Bancroft and family, and General Armstrong, our popular and respected Consul at Liverpool. We trust that the Western will have a more pleasant passage out than du- ring her last trip. Her distinguished passengers could not have « safer vessel, or a more gentle- manly captain. Quick Passace.—The ship Currier, Captain Wolf, arrived below last night from Rio Janeiro, which port she left on the 2d ult, making the pas- sage in $2 days, and bringing advices sixteen days later than had been hitherto received. We learn by the captain, that on the 6th of September the shock of an earthquake was experienced at Tri- nidad, which shook the roofs and threw down the walls of some of the houses in that place.

Great Temperance Meeting in the Park Yes- terday.

Ocpen Epwanns addressed the meeting as follow: Fe.tow Citizens—You are convened for the purpose of secul your co-o] mn to extend the Excise law of 1845 to this city. it law in a purely republican spi- rit, referred it to the good people of all the towns and ci- ties of this State (excepting the city of New York) to do- cide whether any licences should {vo granted in their res- pective towns to retail piritous liquors. They, by anim- mense majority, have decided the question in the nega- tive—a result most honorable to their moral character, free and independent spirit. Here the question na- turelly presents itself why was not this law extended to this city? are we so correct in our hubits as not to need it ? or so sunk in depravity that any app-al to our moral sense was considered idle? Whatever may have been the motives, yet such was the fict, that a movement which ‘was co! red a crowning one iathe noble undertaking of rescuing our fellow citizens from all the deplorable consequences attendant upon the use of spiritous liquors, was withheld from us. Now all we ask is, that the question may be submitted to the decree of the good people of this city, whether li- censes shall be any longer pen in this city to autho- rize men to carry on calling, the direct tendency and necessary consequence of which is to ruin the health and degrade the morals of the community. But strange as it may appear, yet nevertheless it is true, that objec- tions are raised that the act is unconstitutional. What ! unconstitutional to suppress an evil which has caused more misery to the human race than all the other evils which humanity is heir to? Unconstitutional to pass a law in restraint of a practice which throngs your alms houses with paupers and your State prisons with crimi- nals! Can nothing be done to preventcrime? Mustthe hand of the Legislature be stayed in plucking, as brands from the burning, the rising youth of the country, and fathers and husbands, from sinking into an early grave? and saving widowed mothers and orphan children from sorrowing through the world? 1s it unconstitutional for the government to exercise a care over the community, and to restrain their children in the career destruction? Of all absurd constitutional tras I consider this the most absurd. And yet this the only objection which any reputable man has the effrontery to raise to the effectual suppression of such an evil. Yes fellow citizens, the glorious cause of tem- perance, which has done more towards redeeming man, elevating human nature, and advancing the happiness of the world, than anything else since Christianity dawned upon it, is in this, metropolis of the western world, in its crowning effort, brought toa stand. But I dotrust = that there is a moral sense in this community which will not rest quiet under an order of things like this—that the government of this State will be ma realize that this city is not so mnch ofa Sodom as this exemption seems toimply. This lax is now in full operation in other parts of this gret State, and is shedding its blessings far and wide ; and I do hope and trust that it will be ever firmly and resolutely upheld ;} that! the people will not only withdraw their confidence, but frown indignantly upon every man who dares to raise his voice against it ; that wily Politicians will be made to realise that such mea- sures will not advance their popularity with a virtuous and independent people ; the to is not the road to popularity. The Rev. Mr. Cuamaens, of Philadelphia, then address- d the meeting. He commenced by saying, whatare we mbled here for this evening ! y'do we meet , with the image of the father of our country betore us, and the flag of our ceuntry—the glorious stare and stripes waving over us? What are we here for! Are we here to discuss principles of international law? Are we here to discuss great commercial ques- tious? Are we here to discuss the principles that govern the nations of the world? Why, | ask, is this assemblage of the people of New York here to-day ? I answer that the people are assembled to discuss a matter that lies heart of the good man. Your object is what? e out of your city the most terrible curse that has ever afilicted the world since it has been a world. Your ore to remove from your midst this abomi 4 What is it? It is to put down the use of intoxicating li- quor asa beverage. And to discontinue its sale in all the hotels and rum shops of the city. It is in the hotels where it is sold as well as in the rum shop on the “Five Points.” As to the good which the sale of this poison has done, I dely any one to point it out. As to the evils it hes done, it would require the Angel Gabriel to tell them. It has injured you all, and will continue to ia ure you all. And yet this abomination of all abominatio rs is under the sanction of the law. Is it not high time t nat the people of this city had spoken out on the sub ect? Why, | ask, should not the people of New Yor nave the right to say whether this curse shall exist among them or not.

It is rum that uts in your officers, and not your votes; and yet you Bev not the power of declaring that ce will iven mine by Why is it that New York is excluded? Is it that your lawyers may destroy themselves, and that wives shall be made widows, and children be made orphans? Why have you your magnificent hotels selling rum? Why have you rum staring Fog in the face, on every corner ofthe streets?

Yesterday, the nineteenth anniversary of this useful and valuable institute commenced, at 12 o'clock, in the spacious saloon at Castle Garden, and, though several places remain yet to be filled, still the vast area of this magnificent building presented an array of the most su- perbly finished specimens of art, that would safely vie with the productions of any artists in the world. The large and splendid saloon itself is admirably suited for all the purposes connected with the Fair; and with all the advantages of salubrious air and scenery that surround it, will prove a source ‘af viah stivection dai i the continuance of this week. The omnibusses hoistod their usual adve: banners at a little before the hour fixed for 0; ra several in the course of the day visited the Fair. The entrance is well covered in from the front gate, along the wooden bridge that leads direct te the Garden, 2068.00 Oe Ean eee eae ‘imens of cabs, carriages, sowing machines, ments.” ‘A superbly finished hose cart, in this part, will at once strike the eye of the visiter, from the extreme beauty of its finish and execution.

Corn grinding, and winnowing machines, show much in; nuity in the invention, as exhibited. Stoves hold a high position, and are presented in every variety. The Fair will not be full for a day or two more, and several additions were being made in the course of yesterday. The confectionery department exhib- its, as usual, “refined taste,” as the specimens in this branch are usually splendid. They should be allowed a more prominent ition.
