NEW YORK HERA New York, F-iday, November 6, 1846. THE WEEKLY HERALD. THE ELECTION RETURNS, wit AN ILLUSTRATION. The Weekly Herald, of this week, will be ready for our patrons on Saturday morning, at 8 o’clock Price 64 cents. It will contain an infinite variety of reading mat- tor, on the current topics of the day; full returns of the election in this State, with an engraving representing a scene outside of one of the polle— authentic accounts of the late tremendo..s hurri- cane—the foreign news by the steamship Britan- nia, in case that vessel should arrive in the inte- rim—late and important intelligence from Mexi- eo, California, the Army, Navy, Washington— andthe usual variety of commercial, financial and political intelligence, from all parts of the country, together with the latest accounts of the cotton crop, &e. &c All who wish the news to send to the interior, or abroad, can obtain the Weekly Herald, enclo- sed in wrappers for that purpose. LD. The Foreign News. The Britannia had not arrived at Boston at 8 o’clock last evening. At that hour the following telegraphic despatch was sent through tor that city. ae Boston, Nov. 5—8 P. M ‘The telegraph is now working through to New York, with which itis in direct communication. Every thing moves like clock work, and if the steamer’s news comes to hand within an hour, we can give you x column of it for to morrow’s paper. Arrangements have been made > to watch the flour and cotton speculators to-night, and if possible. secure their arrest, should the tack the tel egraph, The wires are working so well that no inter- and any break in ruption 1s abticipated from accidents, an tions. No steam- the line will be announced at all th erin sight, Nigit clear and cold. The steamer is now in her seventeenth day.— We are glad that the telegraph isin order. We shall keep our eye upon the speculators. So wil two or three hundred others. We shall then know who cuts the wires. The Expected News by the Britannia. In a commercial point of view, the news by the steamship Britannia, now overdue, is of vast im- portance. The progress of the scarcity in Europe, the consequent deman‘t for breadstuffs, and its influence on our markets, have set a whole host of speculators on the gui vive. The first conse- quence of this is, that the telegraphic wires be- tween this city and Boston have, in some way, been broken, and the communication interrupted. The next consequence will be the running of an express by some unkown speculators, and the | final result will be that these speculators will realize an immense sum of money, unless the public are on their guard. The wires have been cut. This fact has no ne- cessary connection with the running of an ex- press—none at all. But will not somebody try to discover who runs thisexpress? It would be well worth knowing, although, as we said before, the running of this express has not, of necessity, any- thing whatever to do with the cutting of the mag- netic wires... The news, as we'before remarked, | will be of great impertance in a commercial point of view. The political aspect of the expected news is also likely to be of great interest. The Spanish mar- riages were te have been consummated on the 10th ult. Whether they were defeated by the di- plomacy of England, or, if compassed by the in- trigues of Louis Philippe, what results are likely to flow from them, are matters of no little mo- ment. There are matters connected with these Spanish marriages that may embroil all Europe, The result is likely to interrupt that entente cor- diale which has served to keep France and Eng- land united by a hypocritical alliance. The only thing that will prevent an outbreak, is the fact that the English ministers have their hands full. | ‘They have in England, famine staring them in the face. In Ireland, at the last accounts, dearth was advancing over the land with giant strides, and the people, driven to desperation by want, were on the eve of insurrection. The latter country isin an awful plight. In | 1844 and 1845, the determination of the people to resist the aggressions of the Beitish government, | was, by the efforts of Mr. O’Connell and the members of the Repeal Association, brought to a white heat. On the accession of the whigs, Mr. O'Connell changed his tactics, preached moderation and dependence on the ministry, and ejected from the association those in favor of vigorous measures, and ofa pur- suit of the former policy of the fepealers. The people are divided in sentiment between these two opposing sections, and are doubtful which to support. In this dilemma, they find famine at their doors. In such sad plight are the people of Ireland at present. On the whole, the news will be ofdeep interest, and we are by no means obliged te those gentle- men who have kept us one day later from its re- ceipt, by clipping the pinions of the lightning. ‘The Elcction in this State—The Result, and the Cause. it is now ascertained beyond question, that the election in this State has resulted in the choice of a whig Governor, one whig Canal Commissioner, a | large-majority of whig Congressmen, and a whig State Assembly ; a result which, we believe, the whigs had no anticipation of, and which was never dreamed of by the locofocos. opinion which have occurred in the State of New York so frequently; for in political matters, the | Empire State has always resembled a weather- cock, that turns to all points of the compass in an inconceivable short space of time. As might be expected, the whigs are thrown into a paroxysm of joy, while the locofocos are bewildered at the result, and cannot realise that their darling Silas Wright must make room for | Mr. Yeung, or that the Empire State has slipped from their hands. Those of the whigs who went so far as to oppose some of the regular nomina- tions, and contributed their influence to defent them—as far as that influence extended—throw ‘heir hats in the air, and join with the rest of the party in bawling out, “ All hail, New York !” while those of the opposite party, who are not entirely prostrated, bear their defeat philosophi- cally, and content themselves with the consoling reflection that matters might be worse, This latter class is numerous, and comprises the far. seers and deep thinkers of the party, who, on the smallest foundation, will build-a superstructure of towering height, destined in many instances to totter, and eventually fall, while on some occa- sions it lasts and becomes stable. The foundation that they build upon now is the election of their Lieutenant Governor and of their members of Assembly, &c., from this region; but whether their edifice will stand the washing of the waves | of a presidential election, or not, is a matter which two years hence, we will all ascertain. The whigs, in the plenitude of their happiness, are disposed to go beyond proper bounds in ac- counting for the result. They wish to have it ap- pear thatitisan expression of the public voice pak Ae byron ice general administration, as AS ? price tetera peste that passed the last Con- that led to @ similar result in Pennsylvania, i oc.

Those dissensions were general in the State, and existed as well among the old hunkers and barnburners in Albany, as among the sans culottes of New York. Besides, there was a prejudice against Si- | las Wright among his party, which had been | growing and increasing from day to day, until finally he had become unpopular, and his nomi- | nation was made contrary to the wishes of many, particularly those who wished to purge the party of all of the old leaven of Van Burenism. His re- ceiving the nomination under these circumstances produced apathy, and those who could not con- | G; scientieusly vote for Young, preferred staying at home, to going to the polls. Thus we can ac- count for the diminished vote of that party. These are some of the locofoco causes of the saccess of the whigs; but there is one of a whig character, which, of itself, was capable of producing the result we have before us, and, pro- bably, did more towards it than any thing else; that is, the union of the whigs and anti-renters, by which they received several thousand votes | over those that @aey would have received if such union had not been entered into. This is evident from the fact that every candidate in whose favor | the anti-renters gave their influence, is elected. | They voted for Mr. Young, the candidate of the whigs, and he is elected ; they voted for Addison Gardiner, the locofoco candidate, and he is elect- ed ; and so on with all their own particular nomi- nations—all have been elected. But while we think the whigs are wrong in at- tributing the result to the causes they do, we think they donot put an exaggerated estimate on tho | importance that their victory in this State will have on the Presidential election—that is, provi- ded they are able to maintain it, and manage as able tactician would do. That, however, is doubt- fal, inasmuch as it is well known that the locofoco vote was much smaller at this election than it wasin 1844, and that party will be desperate in the | Presidential election. Their resources are great, | and the State of New York will never go in favor | of a whig candidate for the Presidency, if locofoco votes can prevent it. On such an occasion they will come forward in all their might. With- out reference to the Presidency, however, the whigs have undoubtedly gained a great deal by this election. We would advise the whigs, if they wish to succeed, in 1848, to keep quiet and net run riot over their recent triumphs, for too much ex- ultation will most assuredly produce a reaction in | 4th—Jarvis NCEake. 8tn—F.

It was expected that. a declaration of war would follow as soon as the marriage took place. The British squadron, which sailed at mid- watoh on the 6th, was bound to Cadiz, to take on beard the British Minister, who had left Madrid. It was currently reported that the French fleet was expected daily off Gibraltar. (From the Gibraltar Chronicle, Oct. 7) Despatches arrived from the British embassy at Ma- drid early this morning, which were forwarde by E. the Governor to the Admiral, in one of her Majest; lish packet, whi pani a H 'y’a ht, brought of one tri- advices that 3 jate, two cor teres Ratroap To THE Paciric.—A public meeting was held at the Cincinnati Chamber of Com- merce, on the evening of the 29th of October last, to take into consideration the project of Mr. Whit- | ney for constructing a railroad to the Pacific from Lake Michigan.

On enenen Mormon Arrains.—The Governor of Illinois is a curious philosopher. After all sorts of move- | ments relative to the Mormons, suggesting, ac- cording to the papers, tothe people of Illinois the propriety of permitting the Mormons and Anti- | Mormons to fight out their quarrels among them- selves, he heads a body of one hundred men, marches into Nauvoo, and turns letter writer to the newspapers. Here is his first epistle: Beanvstows, Ill., Oct. 22, 1846. 1 desire to a myself of the wide circulation of your paper ir: Illinois, to advise the public of the progress of affairs in Hancock.

Her performance of this character was highly creditable to her. Her conception was extremely accurate, and ha 3 re pported by an excellent stock company, and Neafie’s otte was creditably performed. The Misses Vallee anced the "Pas de Savoyard” after the play, and with and their style of vivacity.

Mrs. Pope, who is at present the“ reigning ster” at this popular theatre is a host—a perfect gem, in herself,and her engagements has been ats tended with nnbounded success. She will appear again this evening; aud we would recommend those who have not as yet seen her, to avail themselves of the opportu- nity. To our public we would say, “go and see her.” Paumo’s.—This house, as will be scon by an advertise- ment in another column, will open on next Monday evening, under the direction of Mr. Chippendalo, who is, as every body knows, an immense favorite with our ci- tizens.

Young is a noble example of the re effects of energy and perseverance. His parents being in very moderate pecuniary circu: stances, he was in early life thrown upon his own re- sources. Having qualified himself, he became a mon teacher, from which, at thattime particular- mble situation, he has arisen, by his own unaided efforts, not only to the first rank the learned bar of New York, but also to the highest political distinction that the great whig party of his State are able to confer, Very hitle doubt exists with regard to his election. Many of the old hunker division of the locofoco party will give him their support, while the anti-rent vote will be @ very important item in determining the result of the canvass. | | { | | Musical Intelligence.

The artist bowed his acknowledgments, and said he would have tlie honor of playing a fantastic piece he had composed yesterday morning. This piece was loudly applauded, as, indeed, it deserved. His next piece was a duet on“ Moses in Egypt,” with Rapetti on the violin, which we need scarcely say was creditable to both. Indeed, although acquainted with Signor Rapetti’s well-deserved reputation as a leader, we | were quite unprepared for his very brilliant execution in this piece. But Herz’s last piece, va- riations (di Bravura) on the celebrated Terzett from “ Le pre aux Clercs,” was indesc: piece abounds with mechanical difficulties the most com- and masterly manner, without even the appearance of effort. In the intervals of the performance, the applause ‘was enthusiastic, and at its close the scene was perfectly indescribable. Canes, hats and handkerchiefs were in requisition, and the artist was obliged to appear a second time, and bow-his acknowledgments. The orchestra was woll drilled and performed remarkably well. Miss Kor- siosky was absent in Canada, and M’lle Rachel was en- gaged in her stead. Ofcourse there was a change in the programme. Mlle Rachel sang an aria from “ Robert le Diable,” we are sorry to say, in such style as to cause us to regret the change. However, she did much better in the second piece. Mrs. Loder sang an aria and a bal- lad, (‘Sweet melody”) in excellent taste and with great eniog. The concert was certainly one of the most sfal ever given in this city. We noticed among the audience several of our most respectable citizens. Herz gives his next concert atthe Tabernacle on Tuesday evening next, 10th inst. He will be assisted on that occasion by eminent talent He will endeavor to engage Signora Pico on her return from Boston. City Intelligence.

Last night the circus was “crowded to overflowing full.” The performance was highly applauded. Among the visiters was Gen. Rufus Welch, who added to that of others, his approval of the performances, and particularly that part wherein the aew clown, Mr. Kemp, appeared. Mr. North, in addition to his other acte, introduced his beau- tiful Shetland ponies. We could not discover that they were in point of excelle: a whit behind those of the far famed Sands & Lent’s stud.

We understand that all the convicts can be accounted for with the exception _ of the thirteen that were arrested on the of election, | and those are at present in the city prison awaiting the result.
