About half past eight o’clock the steamer touched the city, and our special reporter imme- diutely obtained the news, and began to trans- mit it tothe New York Herald office, over the telegraphic wires. The Hibernia left Liverpool on-the 20th ult., and her intelligence is, therefore, five days later than that brought by the Washington. The commercia! news from Liverpool is one week later. According to the telegraphic report, the quote- tions for breadstuffs stand as follows :--- Tye Paces or Barapstures in Livenroou. P Fe %. P July 19. ‘er Washington. er Hibernia.

The steamer Hibernia, Ryrie, from Liverpool, 20th, via Halifax, 31st, arrived at 6 30 A. M. A Liverpool date of her day of sailing, states that during the previous ten days,the weather had been almost uninterruptedly fine, and each day strengthened the expectations entertained of an wbandant haryest of grain throughout the British islands, and all Europe. The heavy decline in corn, whith took place at the beginning of the month, had been checked since the 12th. The mar- ket has again given way. The prospects of still receiving large supplies from the United States, and by way of the Mediterranean, added to the fine weather which prevails in all quarters, de- preseed the market, which presented every as- pect of a downward movement. The potato crop was represented to be free from danger, and contribute not a little to affect prices. During the week, however, ending on athe 20th, the market had been much firmer— the prices of the 12th became current, and were maintained throughout the week, and on the 1th, in Mark Lane, a further advance of one shilling took place. The trade in Indian corn was, however, quite paralysed, and flour im barrels was quite neglected. The cotton market had been steady since the 10th; sales pretty large and a considerable portion taken on speculation and for export; there was a better demand from the trade, as orders from foreign countries were on the increase. There had been an advance of jd in prices since the 10th, and the market closed steadily at the quotations. The sales of the week ending July 16, were 40,160 bales. In cured provisions a limited business. Butter had receded ; transactions in bacon were limited; prices had receded 2 a 4 shillings. Pork in lim.ted demand. American hams neglected, and prices if anything lower The reports from the manufacturing districts are of a satisfactory and encouraging character ; some few failures are noticed in the Manchester ceports, but they are not to any great extent. The woollen trade in Yorkehire was resuming a healthy position There was rather more enquiry for tobaceo, particularly American, euited for exportation ; several parcels of Kentucky leaf had been taken at advancing prices The Macedonian arrived at Cork the 16th of Tuly Parliament was to be dissolved on the 24th ultimo.

The transactions going forward in the market, since our previous report, are limited, and there 18 not any bouyancy in the trade. The market held on the 13th, was well attendéd, and there was a fair demand for wheat, at the advanced rates of the 9th. In Indian corn meal there was very little doing. On the opening of the market the advanced prices of the 9th were generally de- manded for flour, but the sale wae slow, and be- fore the close rather leas thoney was taken ; 36s. 6d. was established for Western Canal, being ls. per bbl. ubove the currency of that day week. Qn the 16th there was a good attendance of country millers, directing their enquiries partly to good qualities English and foreign wheat, and holders generally submitted to a decline of 3 pence per 70 pounds from the rates of the 14th. A tolerable amount of business was trans- acted at that abatement. Flour, on the contrary,was in more limited de- mand than usual, although willingly: offered by holders at fully two shillings per bbl. below last Tueeday’s rates; Western brands scarcely ex- ceeding 34 shillings to 34s. 6d.; other sorts at a trivial reduction. Since the 16th little business has been transacted, and a top price of the best Western Canal flour is quoted at 34s. Indian corn, of the finest quality, is not worth more than 40s. per quarter, and Indian meal 193 to 19s 6d per barrel, at which prices the sale is very dull, even at these reduced rates. Our readers will find a pretty full report of the foreign shipping intelligenee, and the list of the passengers by the Hibernia, under the proper heads on the fourth page. Sreamsuir Saran Sanps.—This fine vessel, under the command of Captain W. C. Thompson, will leave our harbor to-day, on another trip across the broad Atlantic, and we can say truly that she will carry with her the best wishes of the people of New York, for a safe and speedy voyage. Although she is not, properly speaking, an ocean steamship, the Sarah Sands has proved, to the satisfaction of every one, that she is capable of making rapid passages, and is as safe and com- fortalle a vessel as ever plied between the old world and the new. Her owners intended her to be the pioneer of a new line of packets be- tween the countries, different from steamships ge- nerally, in having a propeller instead of paddles, and more resembling packet ships than any thing else. They alsocalculated that she would make her Western passages in twenty days, and her Eastern in from fifteen to eighteen,both regularly. ‘Thus far, the Sarah Sands has more than accom- plished all that was expected of her. Her last Western passage was made in nineteen days—a day less than what her owners calculated upon; and if nothing intervenes, she will reach home in fifteen days. In referring to this noble vessel, the public generally speak of her as an ocean steam ship, and very imappropri.tely. Although she has a steam engine on board, it is not on it elone that she is dependent, it is only of one hundred and fifty horse power, and is mainly considered an auxiliary to her sails. Under these cireum- stances, it must be acknowledged that her last passage was rather an extraordinary one.— We are informed that she takes out a full amount of cargo and a goodly list of passengers. Another steamer like her will soon be built, and thus the line be increased. Important To Suir-OwNers AND OTHERS.— We give in another column the lucid and able opinion delivered by Judge Betts, in the cause of ‘* The United States vs. The Ship Recorder, her cargo, &c.,” by which it will be seen, that notwithstanding the act of Congress of 3d Sep- tember, 1847, the productions and manufactures of a foreign State, and of its colonies, may be imported into the United States in vessels owned by the citizens or subjects of such State, with- out regard to their place of residence within its possessions. Goop Saiinc.—The steamship Palmetto, Captain Smith, which had been constantly em- ployed between New Orleans and Mexico, during the war, arrived in this city yesterday morning, in a passage short of eight days. The mail, which left New Orleans the same day, came in some five hours after her.

The man whois supposed to be the thief put up at the hotel the same night, and entered his name on the book as E. Potter, from Staten Island. He is described as having a full face, no whis- kers, black frock coat, black pantaloons, and white vest, ‘and of rather genteel ap; e. No arrest.

TO THE Wew York Herald. The Philadelphi 4o’clock, yesterday afternoon, after a very {ai passage, favored by fine weather. She left Cherbourg onthe 15th ult., at eight o’clcck, in the evening, having on board 88 pas- sengers in all, 22 of the first and 66 of the second class. The engineer was obliged to stop about twenty-four hours, to repair a piece of her nia- chinery. The speed of the Philadelphia was re- tarded somewhat by the bad quality of the coal. The Philadelphia has made the passage in six- teen days and twenty hours. The news brought by her is not as late-ns that received by the Hibernia. Philadelphia :— Captain, 6... 6.5 Second Captain.

The ladies’ parlor on board the P. has a better appearance. The furniture is very rich, the piano excellent, and the music case furnished with the most recent pieces of our best composers. Tne Philadelphia, the first name of which was Le Christophe Columb; was employed, during the visit of Queen Victoria to France, two or three years ago, to escort her yacht, and bring from England H. B. Majesty’s officers. This is certainly the best proof of the elegance of this steamer, in the eyes of the French. The mail brought by the Philadelphia is but 4,000 letters, and some bundles of newspapets ; but it is only a mail of two days, (the 13:h and 14th of July,) because ali the other letters had been forwarded to England to go by the Wash- ington, which was announced in France to sail on the Mth. We have recived by this steamer two special despatches—one from Paris and the other trom Rome. Also the Journal des Débats of the 14th ultimo. France: Panis, July 14, 1847.

His alleged motive for withdrawing was his such a protracted and painful enquiry as the present promised tobe Noone, of course, credited thisasthe real motive of so extraordinary # measure, and the pub- lic in general believed that he absconded because he was guilty, and desired to avoid punishment. Well, in this situation, the other three accused were brought to trial, and the investigation had not proceeded very far, when it became apparent that the case was reduced to this dilemma—either M. Teste, the ex-Minister of State, and actual judge in a high trikuoal, was guilty of being shamefully corrupted in the discharge of his public offi- cial functions, or a system of the most scandalous fraud and escrocquerie was practised by the absent M. Pellapra, in conjunction, as it seemed, with General Cu- bidres, another ex-Minister of State. M. Cubiéres, find- ing himself reduced to this position, still refused to ex- culpate himself in the only porsible way, by becoming the informer against his co-accused However, his family caused certain letters and documents to be pro- duced, which made it apparent that he is exempt from the graver charge of escrocquerie, and subject only to the less serious une of being party to the presentation of a bribe to a Minister of State, to induce him to grant joint-stock company, of which the gene- shareholder. of fraud fell only upon Pellapra, and the alternative was either his & It of escrocquerie, or Ud of accepting a bril told you, is wealthy and highly connected.

Rome. Rome, July 3, 1847, Epiton New York Henarp:— Before I speak to you about the serious events we have ir | witnessed since some days, let mo hasten to inform you, that public agitation begins to decline, in consequence of @n assurance Jgiven by the Holy Father, to a deputation who had presented themselves at his palace, in order to make him acquainted with the gravity of the situation that the publication of the decrees for the immediate convocation of the deputies, on the railway concessions, on the faws for the municipality and national guard, should be published without delay or interruption. The ordinance on the national guard, it is assured, is to sp- pear this evening. Order is now restored, but it was not 80 a few days back. A spirit of public fermentation first broke out on the public square ; menaces were uttered against the Cardinals and Prelates, acoused of having forced the Pope to turn aside from the course he had taken, and obliging him to come back to the aberrations of the old regime. A new measure adopted on the ad- ministration of justice, unfortunately corroborated this opinion, and increased the discontent. It is said in a ciroular, stuck up at every angle of the town, that the private tribunals of the governor of Rome should con- Ar- r 'M. Gérard. tinue, and have for President the deputy nor.

Is it not the confirmation of what was annot the famous edict of the 22nd June? At all events, those measures were sufficient to justify the public discontent. The sy met with a very significant reception at St. Jean de Latran. A new opportunity presented it- self of letting him know the sentiments ot the popula- tion, even in the presence of the Josuits, who are more detested at Rome than anywhere else. The reverend fathers had prepared for the reception of the Pope, at their establishment on Jesu, the greatest pomp and It was the day on which the festival of St. Louis de Gonsagues was celebrated. The Pope was received with @ marked coldness on his way, and on his leaving the church one single cry was set forth, Viva Pio nono solo—and in tl eantime the Ded ed stuck up and inted a few lines Holy Father, rely on your roly, but at the same time ‘di costiu a di costoro).”»— thrown into the Pope's car- riage, while he was in the church. This episode is a proef the population hive little faith in the good inten- tions of those whe compose the council of the Holy Father; it was an advice offered to the Pope not to yield to certain influences, dreaded even at Rome.

Paax Tusarae.—Old Drury will, it is decided upon, open to-morrow evening, after along summer recess — ‘The piece selected forthe opening night, is one worthy of the occasion, and worthy of the theatre iteelf. It is the opera of Linda Chamonix,” in which Mra Anna Bishop, prima donna absoluts, of the San Carlos theatre: Ni Mr. Brough, Mrs. Bailey, Mr, Fraser and others, will ‘appear. The reputation of all these gentlemen aud ladies ee well known, that it would be superfluous to refer to it. We are satisfied that the amount of patron- age that will be extended to the Park theatre, the coming season, will be greater than it ever received. Bowsny Tueatne.—So great was the throng at the Bowery Theatre last evening, that it was with difficulty we got a seat. This is no wonder, when it is known that the “Naiad Queen,” one of the most splendid pleces ever produced at any theatre, was performed, and also the tragedy of “Douglas.” This latter piece has been produced with thi test regard to historical truth, snd was .perfo ied throughout in ® highly creditable manner—Mrs. Phillips as Young Norval, is yery happy, Se senate her part in sya handsome po e see how presi Pint ose) public in his exertions to please and amuse them. The spectacle of the “ Naiad Queen,” the ‘ Douglas,” and the comedy of “A Kiss in the ? will be repeated this evening, and without doubt; to a very large house. CuarHan Turatar.—We spent a very agreeable time st the Chatham Theatre last evening, and were highly pleased with the performances, which were very supe- rior. The first piece performed was the comedy “ Grist to the Mill;”” and although we did not notice the slight- est act of omission or commission calculated in the least degree to mar the general effect of the whole, we cannot refrain from mentioning, in s complimentary manner, the acting of Mr. and Mrs. Howard. Her per- sonation of Francine was unt ble. We did not stay to see “Life in the Woods,” and the farce “ His Last Leg;” but from the cast of those pieces, we are confident they were well played. It is almost unneces- sary to say that the house was filled to overflowing. The same bill will be played to-night. Patmo’s Orena Hovse.—The performance ofthe Leh- man family was very well attended last evening. The dancing of M’lles Julia and Flora was much applauded, and M’lles Adelaide and Mathilde, were received as usual, that is to say, with rapturous applause. Chas, Winther and Christian Lehman showed themselves to be capital performers in their rope dancing,ke , aud the two panto- mi “Le Diable Rouge,’ and “Les Moissoneurs,’’ excited roars of laughter. We advise all the lovers of mirth of the fact, that this i tho last woek of the Leh- man family’s entertainments, and as they doubtless will not wish such an occasion to pass unimproved, they had better go at once, and witness these fine actors and dan- cers. To-night’s performance is sbout the same as that of last night. Palmo’s will be crowded. Castux Ganpex.—This evening Miss Clarke takes her benefit, and, in addition to the excellent stock com- pany, Mr. G. Loder, Miss Roborts, Mr. Neafe, and Mr. H. Marks, have volunteered their services. The pro- gramme is interesting, presenting » comic opera, “ John of Paris,” and the comedietts “ Bamboozling.”” The overture to “ John of Paris” will be played by the orches- tra,a grand pas de trois by the Misses Wells, and a duo concertante on the violin and pianoforte, by o- der and Marks. This isan attractive bi ad tl is every reason to believe that this sterling actress and great favorite will draw full house. Thursday evening next, Herr Cline’s benefit comes off. It is almost unne- cossary to remind the play-going folks of this gentle- man’s claims as an artiste; heisa gracvtul tight-rope dancer, and hia classic postures and dexterity are ad- mired by all, and call forth their uaanimous plaudits every evening he performs. He will be assisted by Mr G. Loder, H. Marks, and John Dunn. The entertain- ments of that evening will be rendered doubly attrac- tive, as the Chinese Junk is to be illuminated. repre- senting the celebration ofa Chinese festival. This will bea beautiful sight rom the Jiang Herr Cline de- serves a good benefit, and, no doubt, he will receive sub- stantial proofs of the fact. Mr. Webb and Mrs. A.

City Intel igence. ‘ Tux Weatnen—The thermometer ranged up to 84 dogreea, yesterday, in the early part of the day, and to- wards evening the weather became cool and agreeable. Very Line a Case or Car. Con.—The upper part of the city, more particularly that part which lies contigu- ous to Union Square, has, within a few days, been thrown into quite an interesting state of excitement by the development of circumstances which all the gossips ofthe neighborhood declare indicate the existence of something decidedly crim. con.-ical. ‘The rumors are te this effect, viz:—Thata ‘ing hotel, or extensive board- ing house keeper, some time since formed an acquaint- ance at a house in Thompson street with M: . wife of @ grocer, or produce dealer, in ——— # Now it should be understood that ladies who love their lords and are true to them, are not apt to visit said number in Thompson street ; but hero, as we are informed thegro- cer's wife did at times meet the dashing hotel keeper. Af- terthe intimacy between this interesting couple hadcon- tinued long enough to make it quite interesting, the gro- cer was introduced to the hotel keeper, the latter of whom suddenly became a patron to the other, purchas- ing all his groceries, butter, cheese, etc., etc... him.— This, of course, pleased the dealer, while the relation which it brought about between the two families made an intimacy between the already enamored pal mat- ter by no means difficult. So far all seems to have gone on smoothly enough, but at length the purse of the gal lant publican began to complain of too frequent drafts, for while the grocer took good care to keep his bills well squared up, the fair one, it appears, made oft repeated demands uponher particular friend, and at lepgth made # demand for no less a sum than $200. ‘This was, thought our friend, paying for the whistle with a vengence, and he, therefore, paused; but the de- mand was made by «lawyer, who, in the name«f Mrs. , presented the bill for $200, as for value received. Our gentlemen was ct to make no acknowle: ments of indebtedness, and dismissed the legal gent man, who was‘to call again, Meantime, our“ man in a fix” consulted @ friend, who advised him to yield not an inch, above all to pay no money to lawyers, fori he did it this time the farce would be repeated; and besides, it of itself, be a sort of confession on his part of an indebt- edness of some kind or other. This seemed good coun- sel, 80 when Mr. —, the lawyer, next came to collest his employer's ws he was peremptorily shown the n intimation that his company, was not half #0 agreeable as his room would be. therefore, gave up the enterprise, and took his valuable person off in good time. Learning how poorly her agent had suc ceeded, our heroine determined to urge her own claim in propria persena, She, therefore, repaired to the es- tablishment of her friend, and demanded an interview with him, and was told that he was not at home, *But,” urged she, “I must see Mr. 2) The wife of the landlord had by this time arrived, and assured the woman whom she found enquiring for her husband, that that gentleman was not about the house. “0, very well,”” replied the billholder, “then I'll wait here till he returns;” and she Net oolly seated herself be ag the stairs, and an forth: to get upa very nice sort of a scene. In fact, considering that there were present a house full of boarders, the insinuations and half made disclosures of this now slighted, and con- sequently revengeful woman, were any thing but agree- able to the lady of the mansion, who, finally indignant that her husband’s reputation should be so endangered, plumply told the unwelcome guest that if she didn’t go ‘ff about her business, she would call a policeman, and send her to the Tombs. before Justi The hys- torics,which had been brewing all along, were here beau- tifully paroxismised by the rs wife, after which she sneeringly replied, “ Justioe ! Justice ! ha, ha, ha! Juntos indeed! So you'll take me before him, will you? Take me before Justice i fled to their rooms, and the occupant of the stairs was left in quiet possession of the field. The affair is not yet entirely settled, but matters are, we understand, in a fair way toa compromise. Reronrep Arrain or Honon.—An émeute, or rather fracas, of a serious nature, we understand, took place on Sunday evening at Washington square, where two bloods met rather abruptly, and commenced the row we re er to, Thore sppears to have been some bad blood tu juestion previous to the equabble—and report saya that there was a lady in the case. That modern indis- pensible—: tent revolver—was brought into im- mediate requisition by one of the parties.who fired on his ‘adversary—the ball taking effect on the fleshy part of the left arm and passing right through. The other party, was also armed, but on attempting to fire he missed his aim, in consequence of the | BN iy) sume lookers on at thetime. The parties had met at « neighboring club house, where the quarrel originated. We find no further particulars in relation to this “ affair of honor,” but a rumor prevails that a duel is on the tapis. Our vigilant police officers will doubtless take the hint, and be on the alert to keep the hot-blooded - ents at a “ civil distance” from each other, at least dur- ing the dog days. The present hot weather is by no means favorable to this kind of amusement.
