NEW YORK HERALD. May 3, 1847. Annexation of Cuba, We publish in this day’s Herald, what many will call an extraordinary statement relative to Cuba and the United States. It should be read and preserved. MR. BENNETT'S LETTERS FROM EUROPE. “Pants, March-81, 1847. To-day the spring begins among the idle and fashionable people of Paris. The opening lasts for three days, and is duly announced in the newaspapers.. This beginning, or commence- ment, or opening of the spring, consists of a fashionable promenade of all the gay people, in ‘their new costumes, between the hours of two and five o’clock in the afternoon, in the avenué of Long Champs, of the Bois de Bou- logne, just outside the great triumphal arch of Napoleon, at the Barriere d’Etoile. This avenue of Long Champs is only one of the numerous walks or promenades in the Woods of Boulogne; but at is one of the longest. When the trees there are covered with the foliage of summer, the place isdelightful. It is the great rendezvous ofall the gay, the fashionable, the idle, the silly, the rich, and the well-dressed in Paris. The Champs Elysée, inside the barrier, is frequented by some of the rich, but it is also thickly strewed with people of all conditions. The Bois de Boulogne is the Hyde Park of Paris. There is nothing in New York exactly to correspond to these public places. Harlem and Bloomingdale, though good enough for driv- ing and horsemanship, yet have no elegant prome- nades, where people can get out in crowds and walk. Hoboken is peculiar and delightful, pos- sessing more natural ecenery than any public place in any of the large cities of Europe, with the solitary exception of Prague, in Bohe- mia; but there is no room or convenience for exercise on horseback in the same locality as with the promenaders. Paris at this period turns out its fashionable crowds in theirs pring costumes for three days, at Long Champs. This is also the close of Lent, and with Easter Sunday begins a new season of feasting, dancing, soirées, and gaiety,which lasts through the month of April. It is the last month of the fashionable season, and the Parisians generally crowd as much gaiety into the few re- maining weeks as possible. The salons of the ministers and ambassadors are again open. The leading literary people, poets, and philosophers, and even some editors, also have their evenings, devoted to talk, wit, scandal, and eau sucre. The bankers and high financiers, including the bro- kers (agens du change), who are great men here, and rich too, give their closing gorgeous parties, full of fashion, beauty, expense and grandeur. Even the court of Louis Philippe and the new noblesse follow the spirit and temper of the day, not forgetting the old noblesse of the last century, who yet stick to the exploded traditions of the age of Louis XIV., and despise everything mo- dern. Ihave received a number of invitations for Mrs. B. for the coming week ; but she is already performing her orisons to the Vicegerant of Heaven on earth, to his Holiness the Pope, the modern Antichrist, or the modern ass, ac- cording to the creed and temper of the Protest- ant believer. Thus we go in Paris. The last of the season willbe the gayest, the choicest, the best. We may not have the questionable excesses of the bals masqué or of mardi gras, or of the scores of other places of mixed amusement ; but we may have finer taste, and more propriety of conduct. After the close of the fashionable season in Paris, commences that of London. Neither buds nor balls, neither potatoes nor polkas, neither carrots nor quadrilles, come so early in the season in London as in Paris. After the close of the one season in Paris, many go to London, to finish with the gaieties of the other across the channel. Already the Italian Opera has left us. The house was closed a few evenings since. Grisi, Lablache, Mario, are gone to London, to begin the season there. Jenny Lind, from Vienna, is expected here every day, on her way to London. Whether she will stop a few days and sing in Paris I know not; but if she do, she will create a prodigious sensation. Jenny Lind is now considered the sole queen of song in Europe. Grisi has had her day, and is now passée. Others have had their days. Jenny Lind is the divinity, undisputed, at this time. But the closing of the Italian opera does not close the salons of music. We have the Aca- demie Royal (grand opera in French,) and also the Opera Comique. We have concerts in any quantity, and of every quality. At the Grand Opera there have been great internal trouble and insurrection. The consequence is that Madame Stultz, a very excellent artist, has resigned. Upon this event the fewilletonists, or musical cri- ties, in the newspapers, write column on column, comparing her note of resignation to that of Na- poleon’s at the close of the hundred days. There is no end to the fun which the newspaper critics here make ot every event in the musical, thea- trical, or fashionable world. Weare all on the qui vive here for the arrival of Mr. Rush, as new Minister to the Court of France. His appointment has been a surprise. No one expected such an excavation from the olden fields of diplomacy. But he has had expe- rience many years ago in London, and gave that experience to the public in a very amusing book, which broke the seals of diplomatic secresy with- out hesitation. I expect that he will keep a si- milar faithful historical record during his resi- dence at the Court of Louis Philippe. He may wive us the ‘Last Days of the Reign of the \Kang of the Barricades.” These things do good, because they show the littleness of diplomacy— the uselessness of such a system, and the neces- sity of an entire revolution in that mode of in- ternational intercourse. When the United States have really any business of importance to transact with another nation, they should appoint a minister of the highest rank, with a salary of the highest rank—even as much as $50,000 fora single year. American ministers abroad cannot meet, on an equal footing, the ministers of other nations, at less cost, without rendering them- selves and their country the laughing stock of the world. When there is nothing but ordinary business to transact, a consul or diplomatic agent, with a reasonable salary, is quite suffi- cient for all purposes. Mr. Martin, who has filled the post of Charge de Affaires has given great satisfaction to his countrymen, and will leave them with their regrets. Mr. In- gersoll (of Connecticut,) the new Minister to Russia, has been here all the winter, but will leave about these fine days for his destination. Mr. Wheaton, formerly Minister at Berlin, is sult in Paris; but he will return to New York in the course of a few months. Mr. Wheaton ince the departure of Mr. King, | »! | of great beauty and accomplishments, some | with large fortanes, and some with large ex tations, There axe, also, many old gentlemen and old ladies, to whom the novelty and excite- ment of travelling have given a fresh lease of life, and fresh eolor to the cheeks. Many fresh travellers, of both sexes, afe constantly arriving in Paris, from the United States, for the purpose of making the tour of Europe. Indeed, that tour is now easily made, and in a few years more it will be easier still. The time is just at hand when one will be able, by means of rail- roads, to visit all thecapitals of Europe—Lon- don, Paris, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Vienna, Constantinople, Rome, Venice, &c.—during a few weeks in summer. The whole Continent will soon be intersected with railroads, in all directions, and all the separate kingdoms and empires will be bound up in the same system of iron and steam. When that takes place, I don’t believe that they’will be able or disposed to go to war atall. Steam is your only universal peace society. Our Mexican Retations.—We are sorry to see a disposition on the part of the editors op- posed to the war and to the administration, throughout the country, to reflect on the charac- ter of Mr. Atocha, as they have done with every other agent that the government has em- ployed to take despatches to Mexico. There is no reason for supposing that the government, se- lecting a person to convey despatches, 1s prima facie evidence that he is unfit to be trusted, &c.— as they appear disposed to make us believe. Weshould say that, selecting a gentleman to discharge a duty of that kind, is evidence of his ability and proper qualifications. Because Mr. Atocha was entrusted with despatches which he faithfully and honorably delivered to the persons to whom they were directed, and because, also, he is a friend of Santa Anna, the most unjust imputations are thrown on him. This should not occur Mr. Atocha has resided in this country for many years, and for some time his family have resided in this city. We believe that Mr. A. ranks as high, as a man of probity and honor, as any person in our city. The following article from the Pennsylvanian relates tohim. We give it for the sentiments it contains :— [From the Philadelphia Pennsylvanian, April 29.) Extract froma letter from our coven ondent in Wash- ington, dated 27th April, 1847. It might be hig 1d that the opposition press would have ceased ere this to circulate reports prejudicial to the administration, without any authority except that of whig letter writers; for, in asd instance of the kind, these reports have been nailed to the counter when the proper time arrived. The last of these, lating to the alleged diplomatic mission of Mr. Atocha to Mexico, has received its quietus from the Union of the 22d inst,, In the following language :—“ We feel our- selves authorized to say, that Senor Atochsa was not vested ‘ with the high dignity and responsibility pf an ican plenipotentiary’ to Mexico, as the Delta sup- le ity of pacity he faithfully performed his article from the Delta of Now Orleans, which has been copied into the National Intelligencer, contains reflections upon the character of Mr. Atocha, which, from all | can learn from those who know him best, are without foundation. Although Mr. Atocha was not sent to Mexico upon @ mission with diplomatic powers, ill t! [adiarealtes ample reason to yep in him the trust he has faithfully executed. The Department of State, you may rest assured, is not in the habit of entrusting despatches of great political importance to mere adventurers; and, in this case, it was perfectly satisfied with the character and ability of the individual in whom it confided. ‘Thus much I have thought proper to say in defence of Mr. Atocha. We trust that this dishonorable way of inju- ring the party in power, by traducing the charac- ter of honorable men, will be put an end to. It is unworthy of the press. If the administration a wrong, abuse them, but let private individuals alone. ee i Destructive Fire ar Fiusnine, L. 1.—We learn that a fire broke out about 10 o’clock in the morning on Saturday last, in a barn belonging to A. Parks, which soon communicated with his dwelling, and spreading with astonishing rapidi- ty, in its course ‘carried down every adjoining building. The citizens were quickly to the res- cue, and active and energetic in their exertions to save, and all was done that men could do; but owing to the general drought and want of water, it became necessary to form lines of citizens of both sexes, leading to the steamboat landing, nearly a”quarter of a mile from the fire, which resulted in staying the flames, and preventing their destructive consequences from crossing Bridge street, and through that prevention alone the principal part of that much admired village has been saved. The following is a list of the sufferers, with the insurance on the property destroyed: William Haviland,. loss $14,000, insurance $7,000. A. Parks, house and . ss 1,000 Henry Hover, Fl’g Hotel none Gabriel Winter,. . bs Dr gValk’s office, bed ——y bi bog Henry Lewis,. . . +. % 1,000, % “e Mr. A Parks also lost a valuable horse, burnt in his stable. Tue Trape wirn Jaran.—Oa the outside of this day’s paper will be found an interesting ar- ticle on Japan, which we extract from the Cal- cutta Star of the 26th October last. The governments of the old world have en- deavored, on many occasions, to open commer- cial relations with the Japanese, but without suc- cess, The government of the United States re- cently tried to do the same thing, but failed like- wise. In answer to Commodore Biddle’s mis- sion, the government of that people requested him to leave as soon as he could, and to never re- turn. ’ There is every probability, from the tone of several articles that have appeared in the London journals, one of which is referred to in the arti- cle which we extract from the Calcutta Star, that the British government will, before many years, forcibly open the commerce of Japan to the world, as it did in the case of China, unless it be anticipated by the government of the United States, and compel the Japanese to abandon the policy of exclusiveness which they have main- tained so long to the rest of the world. In the present age and condition of the world such a course would be justifiable and proper, besides beneficial. It would not only benefit all commercial nations, but it would benefit the Ja+ panese themselve: Tur steamer Campnia left Boston on Saturday for Halifax and Liverpool,with the foreign mails, and 112 passengers. — INTELLIGENCE FROM Santa Fe.—Our advices from Santa Fe are to the 5th of March inclusive. All was quiet there. Tue Canaus. — We find the following para- graphs in the Albany papers of Saturday, rela- tive to the canals:— for up freights, ainounted boats passed up was 119. Owing to the height er in the river, it is impossi- le to discharge the weigh lock here, so as to weigh boats. Albany Atlas, May 1. ‘We understand that at 8 o'clock this morning the Col- lector in this city will commence locking in the boats, in their order of precedence. A great concourse of bouts, nearly 400, are waiting their turn. A boat will be locked through every five minutes—Albany sIrgus, May 1. Sporting Intelligence.

Arrairs in Sourn America.—We have re- ceived the following interesting letter from Montevideo. It contains matter to reflect upon; it gives the origin of the war, which is not perhaps generally known in this country:— Montevipro, Feb. 6, 1847. ‘The news from England and France is very contradic- tory, and we are kept in a great state of anxiety. Eng- land, it appears, is willing to yield every point of honor in order to obtain the hides and grease in warehouses of Buenos A: But France, noble, chivalrous France, the tand of Napoleon and La Fayette, says to Rosas, “ the tri-colore shall navigate the Parana. To the indopendent nation of Paraguay, we will send the productions of France,” and no pecuniary inducements can divert her from this decision. France says. “the Parana has been opened with the blood of too many gallant Frenchmen, ever to be again closed, The battle of Obligado was one which France re- views with pride, and she has promoted the na- val officers who were engaged in the severe conflict. It is the first battle where small steamers and veesels of war in still water have placed themsolves directly under tweoty-four pieces of 24-pounders, (long guns) and si- lenced them all after twelve hours bi fighting, in which many noble sons of France fell, shor ng to the world that what was said of them by Capt. Hotham, commander of the English naval forces during the ac- tion, * that they were the bravest of the brave in a nayal fight,”” was true, Had that battle been fought by the = of the United States, and our governmont approved of the action by promoting the officers engaged in it whogsurvived the conflict, as England and France have done, the world would see every ship of war in our navy sunk before the commerce of the noble Parana would be again closed. We believe France will be actuated by the same noble rinciples, and the brave Paraguayans will be allowed to bare the iron bands with which has bound them, and receive in their waters the commerce of the world. Paraguay declared and achieved her independence in 1810, and in 1812 it was acknowledged by General Bel- grano, as Minftter from Buenos Ayres, For more than thirty years no enemy thas stood within her territory; but Buenos Ayres owning 4 peninsula of land on the north shore of ,the Rio dela Plata, has shut her out from commercial intercourse with the world, which the battle of Obligado has opened, and we have full confi dence that whatever England may do, France willnever consent to record as true the declaration of Rosas, that all engaged in the battle were pirates, and as such should be hung without judge or jury, If France and England yield’ to Rosas, and shut the Parana, they will accede to the truth of this declaration, and it will be left to the North Americans to redeem from bondage the noble Paraguayans, and leave the whole to be recorded by the historian. History will then record all that has traaspired in this hemisphere; and the sons of France and England will often, in perusing the pages, blush for the inefiicient, dishonorable, and vacillating conduct of their rulers,’ who have showed fight sufficiently long only to inyolve all neutrals in the general wreck of de- struction, which must sweep over those who have be- friended their interests, if Rosas and Uribe, with their band of Mazorcas, are again to wiclt the cut-throat knife in the Banda Oriental. 1 think the oricin of this waris not understood in the United States. 11 has ori- ginated in) rivalship to the natural adyautases Monte- Video porsesses. Her situation must eveulually draw most of tho business to this port; and her curreacy being gold and silver, gives her advantages over buenos Ayres, which that government is not willing to leave to (he hand of time to mature,and prefers to strangle the young Hercules in the cradle, against which this little city has nobly stood for six years, and before sho yields, the slege will be as long and cclebrated as that of ancient ‘Troy, igre DerantMext, Cotumnus, Onto, March 27, i847.

Maxsiavonrer,—A colored man by the name of Wil- Mam Johnson, and his brother, late residents in Hudson strect, who have for some time past been employed in Jersey City, while on their way to work one morning in the early part of last week, were assailed by a party of white mep and boys, (about 20 in number,) some of whom attacked the before named colored man, and knocked him senseless to the ground, where they left him bleeding profusely, A gentlemen, who arrived at the spot immediately after the murderous assault had been committed, caused the man to be conveyed to a drug store, and bis wounds dressed, He was then taken home, and subsoquently to the city hospital, where he died about 5 o'clock yesterday morning. The coroner was called to hold an fnquest upon the body of the de- ceased, but in consequence of the absence of material witnesses, the investigation was deferred until this after- noon. Raitroap Accipent.—Asa train of carson the Har- lem Railroad was on ita way to this city, on Saturdey evening last, when near 40th street, the speed of the lo- comotive was y retarded for the purpose of letting out the President of the Railroad Company, when 4 stranger embraced the opportunity of gettivg on one of the oars, in doing which his hat fell off, and in order to recover it the stranger instantly sprang from the ar, and accidentally slipped, whereby he had one of his arms broken in two places. Notwithstanding the re- peated precautions that have been given against the practice of jumping from railroad cars, while underway, we frequently observe persons, thus jeopardize their lives; and when on every occasion, thelr fool hardy exploits are attended with serious consequences, & hue and cry is at once raised against the officers of the road as well as the engineers and conductors of the trains, as being the sole cause of the mixhaps that oc- cur. itis truly surprising that more Saceidents do not oceur, particularly amongst the numerous children who may be daily observed crossing and recrossing the tracks in Front of the ears when going at a fast rate, as though they were desirous to manifest how daring they can in risking their lives and limbs. Drazu ny Coxvutsions.—Coroner Walters was called yesterday to hold an inquest at No, 212 William street, on the body of a German, named Peter Fritch, aged 48 years, who arrived in this country in January last, since which time he has been greatly afilicted with fits. On Saturday night, about 9 o'olock, he was again attacked with convulsive fits, which continued until 3 o'clock yos- terday morning, when he died. Verdict, death by con- vulsions. Accipest anp Loss or Lirz.—A sail boat, with four men in it, was capsized yesterday, near quarantine. One of the persons, named 8, Davis, of Ireland, was lost ; the others were rescued by a bout sent from a schooner lying near by. Assault with Intent to Kill.—Officer Murphy, of the 6th ward, arrested on Saturday night, a woman called Mary Jane Lawrence, on a charge of violently assault- ing man called Stephen Scovell, with a razor, evidently with intent to kill him, inflicting five severe wounds on different parts of his body, while in a “crib,” up Mur- dering aliey, in Cross strect.

The monuments to mark the boundary will be erected as soon as the weath- er is suitable. The line from the occan along Little Compton and Tiverton, through Fall River, aud along Warren and Barrington to Bullock’s Point, is to remain as at presegt occupied. From Bullock’s Point to Paw- tucket Bridge the Jurisdiction of Rhode Island is to ex- tend, as at present, to high water mark, but the ownors and occupants of the lands in Massachusetts adjoining the Bay are to enjoy all riparian rights according to the commen law, end the common rights of fishery’ in the Bay.

M. ‘There has been very little of interest in the Stock Market during the past week, prices have been without material alteration, and there has been very little dispo- sition exhibited to operate, Speculators appear to think that some important change is about being realized in our financial affairs, but the widest difference in opinion exists relative to the nature of the change. There are two parties pretty equally divided, one anticipating an increase in the supply of money, a reduction inthe rate of interest, and an improvement in our finances general- ly; the other anticipating a tightness in the money mar- ket, a large importation of foreign manufactures, an ex- portation of specie, a contraction on the part of the banks, and such restrictions in our finances, from the op- eration of the Independent Treagury, 28 will bring every thing down to the lowest point as regards prices. Timo will determine which of these parties is correct in its views. We agree with both. There is very little doubt but that we shall ultimately experience all the evils of a large exportation of specie, in payment for theimportation of foreign manufactures, and there is no doubt but that an exportation of specie, in connection with the Inde- pendent Treasury, will place the most severe restric- tions upon the money markets, Before we realize these things there must be a period of speculation—an infla- tion of credits, an abundance in the money markets, an improvement in prices for every species of property, and of course, as a natural consequence, a collapse as soon asthe inflation has reached the explosive point. We, thorefore, are under the impression that tho bulls and bears will have their day, that tho bulls will have the first, and the bears the last, and decidedly the best chance,'for they will, without doubt, find prices so much inflated, that the reaction will probably be as greatas has been realized for several years, The beats are undoubtedly more correct in their views than the bulls, but we think they make a mistake in anticipating an immediate depression in prices. If they will have « little more patience, they will make more profitable ope- rations when the turning point is reached, We annex a table exhibiting the quotations for stocks in this market for each day of the past week, and at the close of the week previous. It will be perceived that prices have been exccedingly uniform, and that the transactions in some of the fancies have been unusually limited.

It was reported in the financial circles of London, pre- vious to the departure of the Cambria from Liverpool, that one million pounds sterling, in specie, would be shipped by the three steamers leaving for the United States in April. The Cambria brought £400,000, tho Sarah Sands, £185,000, leaving a balance of £415,000 to come by tho Caledonia, to make up the amount stated. The Sarah Sands brought all the undérwriters would take. We have no doubt the Caledonia will bring near- ly her complement, She will be due about Wednesday, being now in her thirteenth day. =The amount of coal transported on the Reading Rail- road, during the week ending the 29th of April, was 28,812 tons, making the aggregate for the season, up to that date, 324,115 tons.

The large amount of specie in the banks of this city is a very favorable feature; is an increnge since February last, being in the face of an accumulation of specie in the bands of the sub-treasurer in this city, of more than three militons of dol! idea of where the specie has gone to. ‘The returns from the ‘Treasury Department of April 30th, exhibit an amount in the various depositories, to theeredit of the Svcretary of the Treasury, of $7,767,- 82018, of which about seven millions were in specie. The large amount locked up in the hands of the Assistant ‘Treasurers and in the mints, has been drawn from the channels of commerce, without having produced any material derangement in the money market. It is very true that the recent importations of specie have provent- ed, in a mensure, any injurious effect arising from this accumulation, but the currency of the country has be- This gives uscome | come so much improved, that the operation of the Inde- pendent Treasury, thus far, has been exceedingly easy and without those restrictions anticipated by its oppo- nents. ‘The accumulation of a surplus revenue as large as wo have had within the past two years, in specie, in the hands of sub-treasurers, in the event of the balance of our foreign trade being against us, would have an unfa- vorable influence upon the currency, but we do not anti- cipate such a state of things at present.
