The present aspect of political affairs in this country makes the coming election in this State one of considerahle importance, yet we do not believe | that a very large vote will be thrown. According to appearances there are to be no split tickets—no division in the ranks of either the whige or democrats, and hence there is not the usual amount of excitement. All the confusion, thus far, has been in the ranks of the democrats, but the probability is that these differences have been settled for the present. This will be the first opportunity the people have had ot directly selecting their own State officers. Previously, the Comptrollers, State Treasurers, Attorney Generals, &c.,&c., have been appointed by the Governor and Legislature, and to them were these officers responsible for their acts. Hereafter they are to be responsible to the people. As every election will now have more or less influence on the greatPresidential contest of 1848, the movements of the parties, and results at the polls, will be looked for with no little interest in all parts of the country. INTELLIGENCE FRom MontTRvIDEO AND BUENOS Ayres.—By way of Baltimore, we are in receipt of the Montevideo Comercio del Plata to the 17th August. The French admiral was enforcing the block- ade as rigidly as his forces would allow. The French steamer Chimere had been sent to block- ade el Buceo, and it was stated that other ves- sels would be sent to enforce the blockade of Buenos Ayres and the vicinity. When the news of Lord Howden’s failure to negotiate peace reached Buenos Ayres, a great sensation was excited, and all hopes of any ar- rangement with Rosas were given up. Many wagon loads of clothing, and other articles, for Oribe’s army, had been sent down to Ensenada, under the charge of Gen. Alegre. Late news had been received in Buenos Ayres from the capital of Corrientes, which was that that country had renewed the offensive and de- fensive alliance with Paraguay; and that the latter government had already sent a force of 3000 men, and was about to send more, to Cor- rientes ; and that all the Argentine officials who were in Corrientes, had gone over to the Para- guayan division. There were contradictory rumors about this, however. General Rosas’s message to the Legislature of the Province of Buenos Ayres is given in full. It is on the subject of the late foreign interven- tion in the affairs of La Plata. We shall give a translation of this important document in to- morrow’s Herald. Naruraizinc.—The season of naturalizing has commenced in good earnest, and for the next } = two weeks the vestibules of the City Hall will be well blocked up. Thies business of naturaliz- | ing has increased considerably of late in conse- quence of the settled iegal decisions, that no person, either male or female, can hold real estate if born out of the United States, unless they procure naturalization. Many are declaring their intentions and filing affidavits of the same with the Secretary of the State, which enables them to hold property until they can perfect their naturalization Ocean Srramuns.—The French steam ship Missouri left Cherbourg, France, on the 20th ult., for New York; the English mail steamer Cambria left Liverpool on the 5th inst. for Bos- ton ; and the French steamer Philadelphia will leave Cherbourg, France, to-morrow. Strate Exxorions.—There were elections in Georgia, Florida, and Arkansas, on the 4th inst. The election in South Carolina takes place on Monday, the 11th,and in Pennsylvania and Ohio Oumave Raream.=If we cannot have eail- road in Broadway, and an entire removal of thé Constantly jimcreasing throng of omnibuses which monopolise th¢t thoroughfare, we should at least Hive such salutary regulations Yor their government, as our Common Council have seen fit to afford us from time to time, enferced. The omnibus proprietors‘are great politicians,and their drivers and stublemen have votes that tell. If this were not so, we would be less annoyed by the mal-administration of these, in many re- spects, useful conveyances. When a plan for a railroad through Broadway and the west part of the town was agitated, and a bill actually introduced in the Common Coun- cil, the propertion of citizens in favor of it was, perhaps, one thousand to one; but the thousands merely approved, without exerting themselves, while the ones brought every engine to bear to prevent it, and succeeded in making it a ques- tion with the wire-pullers on which nominees must pledge themselves or lose the stage influ- ence. They prevailed, of course, and will always do so, so long as *‘ everybody’s business continues to be nobedy’s business.” A city paper, speaking of another victim crushed by one of these ‘ cars of Juggernaut,” says—‘* A boy was killed yesterday morning by being run over by a stage, in consequenc> of the careless practice of trying to cross the streets ahead of carriages.” In this case, the bey may have been very care- less; but careful men would be at a loss how to cross lower Broadway at present without doing so “ ahead of carriages.””’ The number of omni- buses is becoming so great that the crosser always sees at least half a dozen bearing down on him at full speed; and while he is threading his way amongst. them with the gréatest possible circumspection, let a passenger from the side- walk in his vicinity but telegraph a driver, and ten to one that every omnibus driver in sight does not whip up his horses and bear down for the prize, regardless of the unfortunate crosser over, or his safety. He may come off safe in life and limb, but with remembrances of his re- cent peril “of the earth earthy.” To the know- ing ones who are experimental pilots, the dan- geris proportionably 1 but to ladies, aged persons, or strangers, it is fearfully great. The Mayor, we are glad to see, has taken this matter inhand. Let him but go a little further, and carry out an ordinance almost obsolete from disuse, that requires omnibuses to take up pas- sengers on one side going up, and on the other coming down, and then we will know where to look for them, and avoid them as we would a rail car; and if accidents occurred, it would be through the carelessness of the sufferer, in most cases. This would doaway with the animated labyrinth of stages, horses, drivers, carriages, equestrians and foot passengers blocking up eve- ry crossing, and madly rushing one upon the other, without system, or settled purpose. Lives are more valuable than votes, and the proprietors must see that public opinion is set- tling fast upon either doing away with, or re- forming these evils, and will prevail. LotTer ¥rom Havana.—By the packet Norma, Captain Ellis, we are in receipt of Havana pa- pers to the 24th ult. The news is dnimportant— sugar was scarce and high. Business very dull. Theatrical and Musical. Paux Tuzatar.—Mr Hackett appeared last evening atthe Park.in the character of Sir John Falstaff, in “ King Henry IV,” the performance of which part has long since gained him grest reputation, and no wonder for he is the very Falstaff of Falstaffs, not overdoing it nor coming short of the author’s apparent intention. The sudience gave evidence of how well they were pleased last evening, fur they were kept in continued good hamor during the performance. Ex-President Tyler and lady were present to enjoy the treat which was afforded by the appearance of Mr. Haekett. To- night we are to have the eomedy of “ The Man of the World,” in which Mr. H. appears as Sir Pertinax Mac- sycophant. After which the “Hunters of the Alps” will be performed. This farce has been well received for several nights, and has become in fact quite a favorite. The friends of Mr. Hackett will remember that his en“ gagement is a very limited one, and that they will have but a few opportunities for the present of witnessing his performances. Bowrry Tueatre.—The nautical drama, “ Black- Eyed Susan,” and the new national piece the “ Siege of Monterey,” compore the bill for this evening at the Bow- dry Theatre, We have already spoken s0 favorably of the “ Siege of Monterey,” that we really cannot add any more. The bert proof of its excellence is the tre- mendous houses that have witnessed its representation avery night since it was first produced, and the vooifer- ous @Pplayse with which each and every scene and every act is received. There can be no question that it Is the most sucoessfal, as it certainly is the most inte- resting piece that was ever produced on the Bowery stage. It is, in fact, a condensed history of the war, beautifully illustrated, without regard to cost—a perfect Panorama of the great events which have transpired since the commencement of the war with Mexico, and which have conferred imperishable honor on the Ame- | rican name. Cuatnam Tueatre.— As Mr. Walcot and Miss Clarke will make their last appearance in this city, previous to their departure for the South, this evening, as they ap- pear in two celebrated pieces this evening, and as this evening is fixed for their last benefit in New York, at least for some time to come, we expect to see the Chatham | Theatre filled to the fullest extent on the occasion. The | amusements for this great are in keeping with | the character of those who will perform the principal parts in them, and creditable to the manager, who has arranged them. They consist of the two first acts of “Viotorine, or the Dream,’’ the whole of “Asmodeus, or the Little Devil’s”’ share, and the drama of “ Brian Bo- Erin.” We are confident that | roihme, orthe Maid of the house will be filled. Cincus, Bowery Ampuitneatar.—This evening those inimitable performers, Signor Carlo and the Holland fam- ily. take their benefit, and they will oll appear in three | principal acts. Signor Carlo will, for the first time, pro- have he rd of them, they will puzzle the medical gentle- men, one and all—they are truly wonderful. The Hol- land family perform choicest feats, among others the three ed Polka, aud the somic pantor 1 of the “Toad in the Hole’? will also be given, principal by thi ioiaries. wd this is enough. it. will also be ‘ternoon . M.,for the aecommoaation of the juveniles. Cunisty’s Minstaeis.—We need only mention that this band have had great houses this past week, and will of course continue to have them, as when « family has onee visited them are sure to go again. To-night they have an exo bill. Erwrortan Stxewapras.—This evening there will be of harmony. Their audiences have been * old times” ones during the past week; and thi they have been out of for some time, it is ere Roy have not been out of mind, by the way their old erowd to hear them. They are certainly inimitable. Tae Havana Itavian Orena Taovre are about to return to their home in.Cubs, having concluded their engegement at Boston.

Morning prayers were read by the Rev. Drs. Mead and Wainwright. After the roll was called and other prelimimary busi- ness transacted, the Secretary announced that a mes- e from the House of Bishops was received, to the effect that they had concurred in the resolution passed by the House of Deputies, appointing a committee to report on the best means to be adopted for paliaring. the diocese of New York, in pursuance of the resolutions Diocesan Convention; said committee to consist of Bishops Brownell, (high ehurch;) Hopkins, (bigh church;) Ives.

A resolution was offered by the Rev Dr. Ogilby, refer- ring it to the committee on oanons, to enquire into the expediency of excluding any assistant Bishop from act- in any judiotal tribunal in which his Bishop shall be amember. Carried. Rev. Mr. Evans moved that it be referred to the com- mittee on canons, to provide for the settlement of diffe- rences, srising between a Bishop, who is @ rector, and his con jon. Passed. Rev. Mr Lee, of Massachusetts, moved that the ex- pediency of amending canon 34, of 1832, so as to make provision for the summoning of a smaller number of presbyters to decide differences between ministers and their congregations, be referred to the proper committee. Referred. Rev. Mr. Youna, of South Carolina, called up the reso- lution in reference to the new rule of order, mentioned in the report of yosterday’s proceedings. It was agreed that the vote on taking it from the table should be a test to vote Onacount, the house refused to take up the resolution. Rey. Dr. Mason, of North Carolina, moved that the committee on canons = on the expediency of repeal- ing canon 1, of 1789, which is in the following words:— “In this chu: ch there shall always be three orders in the ministry, vi eason that induced the gentleman to introduce this resolution was, thet the canon was uncessary in his opinion. It cannot mean that there shall be three or- ders of ministers in the convention, neither can it be presumed that the convention can by canonical enact- ment, take away the three orders of ministry. Those orders stand on higher ground tham are canonical enact- ments. It appears tome, he said, that that canon, if canon it is, is not only nugatory, but actually injurieus. 1 cannot consider it asa canon, for a eanon is forthe enforcement of some act or the forbidment of some act, neither of which is done by this canon. Rev. Dr. Van Incr rose and said, the question was, was the canon passed before the rubrics, or was it for the purpose ofenjoining any particular act. There are three orders of ministers in the church of God, and are our Bishops to say, that in every diocese th to be parties representing these three orders. The qu tion was the passage of this canon, mere scaffolding for mk. erection of the church, before the adopting of the ‘ubrics. A gentleman got up and said that although the canon was originally passed in 1789, yet it dates also from 1832, when all the canons were adopted in general con- vention Mr. Van Inge continued. The canon contains no- thing, nor does it previde for any thing. It is inopera- tive—a mere declaration that there shall be three or- ders, Bishops, Priests and Deacons, and m-ans no more than any other ubstract proposition. Neither could the Bishops enforce it, if so 1d, because in some dio- ceses all of the mini ht be deacons Rev. Mr. For: rors and caked what was the use of debating the question at thisstage.

Committed for contempt of Cuurt.—Justioe Drinker committed to — yesterday morning John McManus, one of the policemen of the 6th ward, on « charge of contemptuous conduct towards him, while in the dis- eharge ot hia duties as magistrate on the bench. It appears that Justice Drinker, for some cause, had sus- pended MoManus on Thursday, and at the watch re- turns yesterday morning. the office being full of prison- ersand policemen, McManus appeared in court, having in custody « prisoner, in company with officer Owens. Justice Drinker, on seeing MoManus, remarked that he did pot recognise him as an officer, he being now under suspension; to which remark Mr. Mc- Manus answered, that he did not consider himself ded, only when ordered so by the Mayor, Chief of Pe , or by Tis Captain. At these remarks Justice Drinker ordered him to leave the office, to which order MeManus demurred, and the magistrate then directed officer Stephens to remove him He was maded by Mr. Stephens to leave the office, but soon after returned in, thereby disobeying the order of the magistrate, who, seeing nis return, filed out » commitment: and di- reoted an officer to take McManus into custody and lock him up. This was done forthwith, and MoManus was detained in the Tombs. A record of conviction for eontempt of court was then placed in the hands of the keeper of the city prison, wherein MoManus was sen- tenced to five days imprisonment in the city prison, and to pay a fine of $25. McManus finding himself thus de: tained employed counsel, and in the course of the after- noon was brought before Judge Edmonds on writ of habeas corpus, who after investigating the o: on the back et the commitment as follow: “No cause being shown for the priso he is remanded. jet. 8, 18.47.
