We shall make room for it as soon as possible. Several columns of advertisements, which ought to appear in this day’s paper are not in- serted, fromthe same cause, and we ask a little indulgence from our friends, with the assurance that we shall make matters all right as soon as possible. oe While the news now pouring in upon us is im- portant, we wish to give it in full to the public. ‘The Heralil for Europe, We shall publish an edition of the Herald for Europe, for the mails of the Sarah Sands, which vessel will leave this port to-morrow It will be ready at ten o’clock to-morrow morning, and will contain the latest news from the seat of war; accounts of the entry of our army into the city of Mexico; the official despatches of the same, provided they be re- ceived in the meantime ; the American markets, and such otherinformation as will be of interest to European readers. It will contain likewise an engraving of the capture of the town of Panuco in Mexico. Important War Documents. We invite the attention of our readers to the important war intelligence and war documents published in this day’s Herald. They consist of acopy,of Mr. ‘Trist’s letters to the Mexican government, and of the replies to them; the treaty which that gentleman rro- posed on the part of the United States; a similar document offered by Mexico; and the corres- pondence between our negotiator and the Mexi- can commissioners. We recommend our readers to be careful, or they will be thrown into convulsions while read- ing the instructions of the ministerial council to the Mexican commissioners. Highly Lmportant Financial and Commercial Intelligence from Europe—Increase of Fall- ures. By the arrival of the steamship Hibernia, at Boston from Liverpool, we have fourteen days latter intelligence from all parts of Europe. The advices are of startling importance, and have created a tremendoua sensation in commercial circles on this side the Atlantic. What will be tho ultimate result, no one can tell. It appears by the accounts received, that many ofthe houses which have failed, have been for many years on the very brink of bankruptcy; that they have been mere shells, likely to be crushed at any,moment, and have been able from the position some of the partners have occupied in the financial circles of London, to sustain i and hundreds wall be arrevocabl} ¥ HERALD, stad no record of it rane Nigy Yee Heyy = - most important 1 w 5, 947. out of, or we might say which has; ich === | grown out of the position of financial and com- | mereial affiirs in Europe generally, and Great themselves wonderfully, considering the rotten- ness of their affairs. In the face of immense losses, in the face of an actual state of bankrupt” ey, many of these houses have enjoyed for a ong time a high credit, and have consequently failed for very large amounts. It is fortunate such houses have gone out of existence; the commercial community at large will be benefit- ed by it, although many houses solvent under other circumstances, will be carried down in the whirlpool. The atmosphere of the commercial world will be purified by the process, and a clear- ex current will flow through the channels of commerce. There are in every great’ commercial country many concerns,struggling along under heavy bur- dens of embarrassments, trusting to some fortu- vate speculation in some of the movements of the | day, to extricate themselves from the difficulties with which they are surrounded. They use up their substance long before they suspend, and when their bankruptcy becomes public, there is nothing but a mere shell left, and the creditors t comparatively nothing. A majority of the failures which have recently taken place in Great Britain and on the Continent, will not pay ten | shillings on the pound, and many not more than two or three shillings. The heavy losses re- sulting from such rottennessin the leading fail- ures will, we fear, fall heavily upon houses on this side of the Atlantic. Our safety, toa great extent, lays in the fact that the losses have been pretty well distributed on the other side, which acts as a very general distributor on this side, and in connection with this is the fact that we are very strong, and are able to stand a pretty good drain upon our purses. Two to three years of good, sound, healthy trade, have given us resources which, in times like these, will prove our salvation. Many failures may ultimately take place here, but it will not be until the last end of the race, not un- til there is no hope left. We have no doubt in many instances merely the skeleton of commer- cial congerns will be left, but if they can keep that together, the shock will not be fatal. We have am abiding faith in the indomitable energy and perseverance of our mercantile classes, and hope for the best. We annex a list of failures in Europe in the months of August and September. It includes names which few on this side expected to see in such a position. Farunes in Gagat Britain anp on tHe Continent. Alexander & Co.... Allian, Cumberlidge A. & ACusto. .. A.

Tue Frexcn Ocran Srgamers.—We under- stand that the French steamship Philadelphia received some damage on her voyage to Cher- bourg, which must be repaired before she leaves that port; and on that account she did not leave on the fifteenth ultimo, her regular day. The injuries were not of great consequence; but the company to which she belongs considered it prudent to thoroughly overhaul her before she started again. This circumstance having deranged the days of departure, they have been altered, and are now as follows:i— Sumwee Deraartui From Havre, From New Yorh.

Hitherto the French and Eng- lish steamships save sailed from here on the same days, and the consequence was that they would take the same news. By the new ar- rangement this will be obviated. The Missouri seiled on the 30th ult., and may be expected here on or about the 15h inst. The new arradgement begins on the 10th inst. Tue Foretan Mats.—We are indebted to the Post Office Department for the early receipt of our parcels received by the Hibernia. They came through from Boston in a special train, and reached this city yesterday morning. Fam or THe American InstiruTE.—The twen- tieth annual fuir and cattle show of the Ameri- can Institute will open this day. We understand that it-will be the best exhibition that this Insti- tute has ever had. Tux Democratic Convention.—We have a running report of the closing scenes in the Dem- | ocratic State Convention, which we will give to- morrow. It is crowded out to-day. Later. rrom Braziz.—We are in receipt of the Jornal do Comercio of Rio Janeiro to the 12th August. They contain no news, save of the affairs in La Plata, which has been antici- | pated. The Philadelphia Ledger, however, gives the following from a letter dated Kio Janeiro, Au- gust 12th:— TheU. 8. ship of tho line Ohio, Capt. Stringham, had arrived, afte: if ae ney Al days.

The day was agreeably fine, and the air was cool and bracing towards evening. Theatrical and Musical. Panx Taeatae.— The Favorite” was last night pro- duced at the Park, and the performers were received in manner caloulated to encour .ge them in their future efforts. Miss Brienti evidently felt. the novelty of her position at first, but gradually gained confidence until the conclusion of the piece,when she was called out, and received the applause of the audience, Her voice is pleasing, and she will, we have no doubt, become a favo- rite with the musical public. Signor Giubilei sings in god taste, and gave great satisfaction by his perform- nce lastevening. Mr. Manvers is well known tothe opera going public. The chorusses are well sustained. The piece is beautifully put upon the stage, and does great credit to the management. We are compelled, for vant of room, to forego making any extended remarks upon the details of the opera or its performance last evening. It is to be repeated to-night. Bowery Tueatar.—So great was the crowd at the Bowery theatre last evening that it was with some diffi- culty we were enabled to prooure @ sight even of the stage, having bsen delayed after the time we intended to visit it. The new national drama Monterey, is as much sought after now aa it was when first produced, and no wonder, for it is a perfect representation of the great drama which the United States and Mexice have been ensoting for fifteen months past. The applause with which it is received is unbounded. It will be repeated to-night, with the comedy of the Rent Day, and to-mor- row evening the talented author will take a benefit. Cuatnam THeatar.—Mr, Anderson, the stege man- ‘ager, will takes benefit at the Chatham this evening, and tLere appears to be a determination on the part of the manager and all connected with th:t theatre, to make the receipts as large as any of the season, for we perceive the best and most attractive bill that has yet been performed there is put forti for the occasion. It consists of five excellent pieces, viz: the second act of the new nautical drama the Lonely Man of the Ovcan, the Tompking Biues, a oiaio danoe by Mr. Yates, the burletta the Savage and the Maiden, comedy of the Dumb Belle, and the Irish drama Brian Boroihme, or the Maid of Erin. It is unnece: to say @ word more. Weare satisfied that Mr. Anderson’s benefit will be a good one. Cincus—Bowrny Amrnitneatar.—This evening the second representation of “Santa Anna's retreat,” wil be’givon,along with the various comicalities of the crowd of merry makers now collected at this place. Cunisty’s Minstacis,—Thore is great amusement to be obtained by visiting these gentry, as their songs, cho- ruses, dances, &o., are all new and fresh. They perform this evening as usual. Frnioreanx Srnexavens.—Major Dumbolton's troupe fully sustain thoir high standing in negro minstrelsy, and from the great popularity they have obtained all over the Union, we have no doubt their present visit will be well patronised. Palmo's was crowded to overflowing last night tosee them. Fvery member of the company is # finished musician. Mies Impora E. Hansen's Concent at tHe Taner: nacur.—This young lady's first concert will take place this evening, when she will be assisted by Mr. Timm and Mr. J. A. Kyle, on the pianoand flute. This young lady, from all accounts, s destined to take « high stand in the musical world, and we trust this her first concert will rove as successful as she could wish. In addition to ir. Timm ond Mr. Kyle, she has engaged ® full or- chestra, under the leadership of Signor Rapetti. She has certeinly not spared the details so necessary to make & concert go off well. Heaz ano Savonr will give their second Grand Con- cert in New York to-morrow evening at the Taber- nacle.

Trortina against Time.—The extraordinary) per- ; formance of 100 miles in 10 consecutive hours, was yes- torday attempted by the trotting mare Albany Girl, at the Centreville Course; but was not accomplished on | scoount of bad management on the part of her owner. | Her driver, had he been allowed his own way, would | have won tos certainty; but his better judgment was | overruled, and defeat followed. There were three sepa- | pate matobes pending on the regult, vis :—let, that the 100 miles would be done in 10 irs; 2dly, that the dis- | tance would be in 934; and another that it | would be accom im 934 mare went the first | fifty miles in four hours and thirty-seven minutes; and | appeared as fresh as at the start, and it was dollars to cents | that she would win. She was then taken out and fed, and twelve minutes given to hor forrest. At the 63d | mile she was going so easily that her owner insisted upon the driver making the hundred miles in nine hours, and | she was driven the subsequent seven miles in less than | half an hour, This speed seemed to be too mueh for | her powers, and she gradually thereafter failed. The | mare, however, continued on until she had accomplish. | ed ninety seven miles and about a third, when she came to astand still, she having st that time half an hour win the ten hour match, the other two matohes, | of course, having been lost previously. She was then | taken charge of by Hiram Woodruff. under whose mas- terly care she will be all right in a day or two.

Banquets and dinners are beld at the chief places in the departinents, and the counails general and local bodies, 80 far as they arv not connected with and dependent on the government, are woting petitions. The question of the oon of reform mey be very briefly stated. It is estimated that the population of France amounts to thirty-two milions. Of these, less than three hundred thousand are qualified to vote fora deputy. In the re- presentative chamber there were 456 members. Govern- ment has in its hands the patromage of 400,000 places; that is,one-third more than the tog2l number of electors. In the chamber there are 192 piace-,uen, dependent upon the government for their means of sul eo. It will be seen at a glance what collossal machinery of corrup- tion, both as regards the electors anyi the deputies—in the constituency andin the chamber; ,thero is at the dis- posal of the government. But this {@ not all. A large sum is annually placed at the disposal of the government for what is secret service. Neariv the whole of this is expended in corruption. Journa’s are estab- shed and subsidized, deputies are salaried, and the most fisgrant corruption practised in every depui-tment ofthe State with this fund. It is against all this, that the ef- forts of the opposition are now directed. The retirement of Marshal Soult fromthe Presidency of the council, is now daily expected. When it docs take place: M. Guizot will be appointed to that office, which he will hold in conjunction with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A rumor is now prevalent, that the Dutche:'s of Mont- pensier is enciente. The event is looked fiir by some with much solicitude, connected as it necessarily is with the sucvession to the Spanish throne. The new loan of three hundred and fifty md@lions of france,equal to seventy millions of dollars, has not yet been negotiated, nor will be, it is said, until Nov: enber.

Corboli, the envoy of the Pope, has just arrived here, and bas already bad several confer- ences with t-e King ou the subject of the Italian lpague against Austrian despotism It is proposed to form an alliance offensive and defensive, first, between the Ro- man, Sardinian, and Tuscan States, to which afterwards the other Italian States may be admitted, to defend Italy from all foreign aggression, and thut without any foreign intervention. This is the great alm of Pius IX , that Italy should be sufficient for Italy. ‘The King hae | lately addressed an autograph letter to his private Se- cretary, which was read on the 81!

You may now expect important newa from our quarter of europe by every mail that shall arrive. Narces, 6th September, 1847 Epiton N, Y. Heaarp :— Like all the rest of Italy, we aro here surrounded with the elements of insurrection. A rising has just taken place at Messina, in Sicily, in which many have been killed and wounded on both sides. Owing to the government not allowing any newspaper, except its own gazette, to bo printed,and practising an infamous sorutiny ofletters in its post offlves, it is very difloult to get at the trae state | Italy.

Letters continue toarrive from various parts off Italy, which, though not more recent in date than thoup which fe wo have already given, supply sqme further papticulars of interest, relating to the vast social revolution, of'which'} the next steamer. the Peninsula is at present the theatre. We tind no ground for the rumor which prevailed in Paris gn Wed- nesday afternoon, that a revolution had taken, place in Naples, and that the King had taken refuge on Yooard the French vessels then lying at anchor in that Iyarbor. It \s, however, certain that the insurrection in tly, southern part of the Neapolitan territory, and in Sicily, is assum- ing every day more formidable proportions- -that con- siderable reinforcements have been sent to fLhose points | fcom Naples—that the garrison of the capita)i has there, by been reduced to a lower state of force than could have wen allowed, save under the presence of owurruling ne- cossity—that the agitation in Naples is extreme, and the four of a 9 dn movement there so serious, that the go- vernment have been compelled to resort Ro extraordi- nary measur: 6 of precaution; and, in fine, that several arrests have been made of persons charged with or sus- pected of disaffection, and numerous others, equally ob- noxious to the authorities, have taken refoge ou board the French squadron. Tbe steamer Pin in, which sail- ed from Naples on the 5th, has arrived at Toulon, and brings advices confirming all these statements, and has on board the citizens of Naples who escapest from the agents of the government. Letters from Florence bring further details af the nef pular ovations which took place there on the publication of the decree for establishing the National Guard, when the people collected in thousands, in the square in front of the Palace, uttering in favor of Leojold II, Pius [X.and the Italian Leeguo. The windows of the houses surrounding the -quare were decorated witht bril- liant draperies, and filled with ladies, who waved the Tus- can fleg, (white and red.) The Grand Dake, leading hia two nous, presented himself in the balcony in front of the Palace. to make his acknowledgements to his prople. Seeing the national cockade on every body, and the na- tional flag waving every where around, and not having one at hand. he ordered two silk mantl+s to be taken from the shoulders of the members of his family, a white and a red.unitingwhica he improvised the national flag,which he waved from the balcony. A deputation was afterwards admitted to the palace to present to the Grand Duke from his people a fag of the Tuscan cclers. In his answer to the address of the deputation. the Grand Duke concluded with these ina- morable words je assured, gentlemen, that above all other qualities, [ aim an Italian Prince!

It ts iy ble to describe the burst of enthusiasm which foll 1d this. The people shouted, wept and embraces each other. Priests, monks, women and childreu, equally transported with the general delirium, placed or their breasts the national cockade, and ran in all direc tions in the wildest joy, shouting—* Viv- Leopold! Vive Pio nono! vive Is guarde civic! vivela macbla Italiana. i fratelli dell’ Italia, il popolo Italiano! vive gli amici det popolo !? Some of the scenes we have already described at Leg- horn, were reproduced. four in the afternoon 24,000 | persons were coll-cted in the church of the Duomo, where this multitude united their voices in a Te Deum, the effect ot which it would be utterly ia vain to attempt to describe.

At this hour Narvaez presented himeeif, and the queen received him in her cabinet, with the doubly: livt before her. Her majesty observed that the names did not please her, and thet she would endeavor to go on as Well as she could with the intaisters that she bad. Narvaez was thundersiruck. Heasked whether his commission was at anend H majesty replied that it was, and that bo might go! The ; smbaesador withdrew, boiling over with indigastion ot | the hoax which had been played upon him. | It was evi- dent that his own over sanguine friends had called him from Paris rather inconsiderately, and without eny suffl- sient authority, and that the Queeo wanted to be rid of him. What was worse than all, it soon became sppa- rent that he would bly lowe bis embassy. On the next day M. Salamanca the minister of finance, was authorised to form a cabinet. Thia minister’ was all this time in close communication with Mr. H Bul- wer, the English ambassador, by whose advice ho was understood to be very much influenced. Mr. Bulwer was also in trequent communication with Queen Isabella, ather palace. Besides these personages, who hold re- cognized characters on the stage of politics, there was General Serrano, who holds no such character, but who exerolses more influence with her majesty then all the others put together, and who is, moreover, the intimate felend of Mr Bulwer.
