Foreign News. We may receive two weeks later news from Europe some time to-day. The Caledonia is in her fourteenth day, and due at Boston. "The Biection To-Day. The political forces of the State of New York have been marshalling and parading for some. time past, and to-day will witness the clash of arms, the triumph of one party, and the defeat of the other. We have already given the list of the candi- dates of all parties in the State. We, therefore, merely republish the city, and the leading nomi- nations. We are prepared to see the whigs poll @ stronger vote than they have done in a num- ber of years. They will put forth their whole strength, with the hope of crushing the divided forces of their opponents. But we shall see. Those who have a vote should deposit it one way or the other; but examine your ticket be- fore you drop it into the box. The right of suf- frage ig an inestimable privilege, and was pur- chased at a dear price. ‘The result of the election will be given in to- morrow’s Herald. The Post Office Department—Its Head or Tall. Amidst the many curiosities which character- jse the present Post Master General, there is one advantageous point in which he ought to be viewed. His blunders, his narrowness of mind, his illiberality, his peevishness and his sublime inefficiency, may all tend to bring about a new system in this important department of the gov- ernment, which would be an acceptable boon to the people of this country. We ought, therefore, tobe thankful for the incompetency of the present Post Master General. Every Sunday morning, when we kneel at church,we ought to remember him in our prayers. Every Saturday night, when we squeeze a sixpence or a shilling out of the wages of an apprentice or employée, we ought to offer up our homage to the principles and admin- istration of the Post Master General, When we consider all these brilliant traits of character, so capable of shining as they do shine where they ought, in the lower regions of the world of poli- ties, we should be thankful to the head of the Post Office Department, as to an individual cal- culated by his conduct to bring about a thorough change in the whole system of mind commu- nicating with mind, in this vast republic. If the present Postmaster General had been a John McLean, or a Frank Granger, or an Amos Ken- daJl, or even a Barry, we might still be com- pelled to continue the miserable system, because it would be, at least, skilfully administered. But in the present state of the Post Office De- partment, there is no remedy but a radical change, and the adoption of new principles and new arrangements, adapted to the present age. What should prevent the Congress of the United States from sweeping away the rubbish of the existing Post Office Department, and cs- tablishing in its stead a complete electro- telegraphic system, by which mind would be able to communicate with mind in an instant of time, and at as cheap a rate as is now done be- tween New Orleans and New York? When a Persian king first established post routes in that ancient empire, three thousand years ago, it was at that time as great an effort of improvement as the establishment of an electro-telegiaphic system would be in the present day. Since the present electric system has been adopted, we have seen its advantages, notwithstanding that it is defective, imperfect and creeping, as it were ; yet its results are most astounding upon the af- fairs of social, commercial, and political life.— Each day we publish full intelligence, in every department, of all that may have taken place the previous day, either at Petersburg or Washing- jon, or Cincinnati or Buffalo or Bost8n; comprehending an extent of many thou- sand miles. Just so it would be possi- ble to embrace the whole Union in a line of telegraphic communication, and to establish arate of postage by such a mode, even cheaper than that under the old system of communica- tion used by the Post Office Department. Bulky communicptions might be sent in the ordinary way ; but the cream of thought, from all parts of the country, both private and public, might be communicated from the remotest points, with the speed of lightning. No doubt such a proposition, so comprehen- sive in its views, would startle such a person as the present head of the Post Office Department. The man who would throw the mails in confu- sion between the great commercial cities, in or- derto save a few hundrea miserable dollars, would throw obstacles in the way of any change, or any reform, inthe system of the republic.— But we trust that a liberal and enlightened Con- gress will overcome such miserable, such picay- une management. What is the use of govern- ment, if it is not able and is not disposed to give to the people a system adapted to the present civ- ilization of the country? Shall a few thousand, or hundred thousand, or even millions of dollars, be thought worthy of being put into the balance, in comparison with the advantages accruing from cheapness and speed in the intellectual and com- mercial communications of the republic? We trust that Congress,which will soon meet, will take up this matter, and give the country the reform which is wanted in this department. For the last few years we have been going back- wards, sinking, narrowing, trifling with the im- provements of the age. A more melancholy ex- hibition of folly has never been exhibited in any department of the government than that which we have seen exhibited in the post office depart- ment. While we give due credit, nay even high credit, to Messrs Buchanan and Walker, for their talents in their departments; while we en- tertain a good opinion of the motives and charac- ter of the President himself, we cannot but con- demn the policy of the postmaster-general as the meanest, the most disgraceful, the most con- temptible, that ever dishonored the country. Loxpon Lerrers ro New Yorx.—A great deal. of ridiculous alarm has been created by some extracts of letters published in the news- papers, said to have been written by some of the London financiers; one in particular, attributed to Horsley Palmer, who was formerly ,in this city, in which he predicted some terrible catas- trophe to take place in the following week in London. We do not apprehend any such calamity as has been predicted by these alarming letters. Horsley Palmer is frightened. He sees some of the old London houses which have been estab- lished tor half a century, break to pieces around him, and thinks, therefore, that the day of judg- ment is approaching, and the end of the world is athand. The truth is, any person might have seen these consequences, had he been wil- ling to open his eyes to the state of society in London. Not many months ago we publicly predicted the terrible revulsions which are now taking place, and stated positively, that all the great commercial and financial houses of Europe, ineluding the governments, were totally rotten, and only stood until some great revolution took place which would destroy the credit system of all. The great commercial credit of London is gone. The Bank of England, fertunately, was organized afew years ago on principles which will sustain it for some years to come—but the great commercial and financial houses in Lon- don are all rotten to the core, and have been so for years. is not the railroad mania—it is not he free trade laws—it is not the famine, which have produced the results th although they may have acoe! ‘The real cause of the failures in London may be attributed to the social system there,by whieh merchants live-atan expensé beyond their in- comes, and have done so for years past. Anan ual expenditure of $10,000, on an income ot $7,500, will not last long. Joun Van “Buren AND THE BARNBURNERS.— John Van Buren is brightening up. He is even better than a chip of the old block—he is a chip ‘of the old block ina state of ignition, and sur- rounded by electrical fire. His father, the ve- nerable ex-President, of Kinderhook, never dis- played the wit, the sarcasm, the piquancy, the point, that young John does. If the quarrel be- tween the old hunkers and the barnburners pro- duced no other good resuit, it has proved and satisfied us that John Van Buren bids fair to be one of the wittiest and most sarcastic politicians of the day in this State and in the United States. John has always been a remarkable fellow ; full of tact and of the world’sknowledge. He has travelled much in Europe, kissed the fair hand of Queen Victoria, danced with royalty, and waltzed with German princesses at Baden- Baden. He is now taking a different direction, and exercising his genius for the barnburners, in a most remarkable and curious way. He is the redoubtable Barnum of the New York demo- cracy, and moves his men as Barnum does Tom Thumb. We care nothing for the course of the factions; but John throws light on their move- ments, which are almost as amusing as the shil- ling sights of the American Museum, in Broad- way. We have old politicians, full of tact, of wise saws and modern sentences ; but in the po- litical world, they are like Punch and Judy, and all by the magical hand of John Van Buren. John’s last speech is a gem of its kind. We give it in another column. He shows up Mr. Ritchie, of Washington, in a most ludicrous light ; he joins issue wth Croswell, of Albany, and makes them both show their faces around the ring until the spectators are ready to burst their sides with laughter. Since the time of John Randolph of Roanoke, we have seen no one in politics that has bid fair to weer his mantle but John Van Buren of New York. Of course, the track of John leads not to the Presidency. It is too witty, too sarcastic, too joyous, for such a sober direction ; but if he goes on in the course which he has marked out, he will attain a fame anda name far superior to those which his cold, philosophical, selfish and calculating father ever could acquire. We would willingly contribute five hundred dollars to make :up a purse in order to keep John Van Buren in a minority for ever. How much will you go, Mr. Ritchie? InTERESTNG From Orgcon.—The following let- ters were received by yesterday’s mail. It will be perceived that the legislative assembly of Ore- gon have approved of Wilkes’ project for con- structing a railroad to connect the eastern and western shores of our huge country :— Onxcon Crry, Arriy 14, 1847, Dear Sin :— I received your communication of the 14th February, 1846, asking my assistance to procure a petition in this region, in favor of a national railroad from a point on the Missouri River to the Pacific coast, and also a pam- phiet containing your views on that subject; which I Tegret to say, had been detained in California until a very few days since.

Arrival or Emicrants.—The following is the number of passengers arrived at this port during the month of October:— Great Britain and Ireland........ As the cold season sets in, emigration de- creases. Vauraraiso, Aug. 27.—A rumor has come about some boo men a Masatlan, between an English end the American ships of war, in regard to the biock- ade.

Panx Tueatay.—The delightful opera of “Luorezia Borgia,” was again performed atthe Park theatre last evening, before a large audience. As ite first reception was brilliant and enthusiastic, so was this, its'second performance, greeted with such marks of approbation as must be gratefulto the artists. We seldom, if ever, listen to strains more grand, sad and expressive, than those performed in this opera; none that fall more sweet- | lyon the ear, with ‘their melancholy and touching ca- dences—none that sank more plaintively and atlectingly on the heart—none that more awaken a deep sensibility, while they absorb aud elevate the soul. The Lucre- zie of Madame Bishop is noble, impassioned, piece of acting; the transitions of feeling werejust and powerful, ‘and frequently had an electrical effect on the audience. She drew down sympathy for her profound wretchedness, though steeped, herself, in crime and degradation. It ‘was a fine display of her powers asan actress, nor less 80 of her greater powers as asinger. Pure in intonation, sustained in tone, brilliant in effects, perfect in execu- tion, she brought all her energies and talents to this part, and stamped on it a deep interest and irresistible charm it never pefore possessed on our boards. Valtel- lina and Reeves sang their music with great freshness of voice, energy and spirit; and the noviciate, Mdlle, Macfarren, made a favorable impression. Chubb pre- sided over the orchestra with skill, and the chorus and scenic decorations deserve praise. ‘The curtain fell amidst the reiterated bravi of the boxes, and the trium- phant acclamations of the whole house. “Lucrezia’’ is to be repeated this evening. Bowery Turatar.—Mr. Clarke, one of the best, if not the best, actor on the stage of the Bowery, and one of the most deserving as he is decidedly the most popular, willtake a benefit at that establishment this evening, and will, we are satisfied, receive a compliment that he will have reason to be proud of. Apart from his merits -as on actor, we question if the house, large as it is, will be able to hold Mr. Clarke’s innumerable friends on this occasion. The bill includes Seakspeare’s tragedy of “Macbeth” —Macbeth, Mr. Marehall; Macduff, Mr. Clarke; and the favorite drama of “Murrell, the Land Pirate.’ During the evening, Mr. Willis will perform grand cavatina; Mr. Chanfau will give his imitations, ‘and Professor Jacobs will perform several airs on the ac- cordion. CuatHaM Tueatre—We must bear witness to Miss Valleo’s grace and agility in the ballet of the “Giselle.”” She certainly appears to great advantage in that char- acter, and receives much commendation from all who tee her in it. Barney Williams is a capital representa- tive of the Irsihman. He has an excellent and thorough knowledge of his singularly mixed character, and can portray its sunshines and its showers in a very happy manner. The “Giselle” will be repeated this evening— that piece, “Teddy the Tyler,” and the comio opera of the “Bronze Horse,” in which Mr. DeBar will personate the Chinese itinerent barber, are all included in ‘We learn from the bill that Mr, Fletch- the erghas a variety of novelties in preparation. Cincus—Boweny AmruitHeatRe.—To-night, John Gossin, the king of merrymen, again appears on his old stamping ground at the circus, and he will be assisted by his friend, Donaldson, who says that Gossin is his only superior in the jester line inthe Union. There is no doubt the: pair of originals, and the audience to-night will in opportunity Staaten ss the truth of their assertions, as to their powers of fun. Beeides all this, there will be the usual variety of horsemanship, dancing, singing, tight rope, &c. Cnustv’s Minstne.s.—To-night the politicians will be all agog to know the strength of their respective parties, as will be shown by the election returns; now could either party count onas full a voteas Christy's Minstrles obtain from this city, there would be no difficulty what- ever in carrying out their views. The fact is, they are carrying all the musicians along with them, and nothing can stop theironward course, ‘This evening they give one of their usual racy entertainments. Ermiorgan Senznavens.—These philosophic darkies are fairly launched on the sea of public favor, and night- ly obtain solid proofs of the manner in which they are appreciated. Major Dumbolton is decidedly a splendid manager of a splendid company, and we have only to regret that the long and frequent calls made upon them to fulfil their enj ments in Philadelphia, Baltimore anh Washington, obliges them to leave us at the end of this week; but as they are forced to go, we advise every one to attend their concerts this week. To-night oneof the best bills of the season will be given. Graanp Concert or Henz anv Sivoni.—These two unrivalled artists have united their great talent to treat us this evening with a grand musical soiree, though they have each one, individually, talent sufficient, we should think, to satisfy any audience, yet they have thought better to create a greater attraction by giving a concert such as, perhaps, never before was projected in our city. The music selected, it will be seen, offers fair specimens ofthe compositions of the new and regular school. We shall have the “Mélancolie,” by Sivori; a fantasia on “Robert le Diable,” by Keoop. the « vated violoncel j variations on “Norwa,” by Henry Herz, and a grand duo for violin and violoncello, called “Souvenir de Rossini,” executed by Sivori and Knoop. In the second part, Mr. Herz will introduce one of the new instruments from his factory in Paris, which has been awarded the first prize of honor at the last national fair of France. Upon this piano, M. Herz will execute “La Pastorale,” and the “Last Rose of Summer,’’ one of the brigiest gems of his ravishing compositions. After this, there will come off s'‘Grand trio Concertant,” by Myseder, whose music will be rendered by the artists, who have arranged the entertainment. ‘The whole will con. clude with the universally admired “Carnaval de Ve- nise.” Mrs. Otto will sing twice. Last,though not least, Signor Rapetti will lead an excellent orchestra.— If the lovers of music find nothing in this variety to euit their taste, they must be hard to please. No doubt this musical performance will be witnessed by as many dilet- tanté as can be contained within the walls of the Laber- nacle. Mr. Demrsten’s Batuap Sormex.—Mr. Dempster had another good house at the Tabernacle last evening. The ballads which he sung on this occasion were agreeable little pieces, and were received with great applause. ‘There are many who prefer this kind of entertainment to almost any other, and to such, the Scottish songs which Mr. D. sings with such characteristic grace, are a real treat— ak of them these choice little gems come up a8 8 voicefrom home, and bring with them sociations which make them doubly grateful to the ear. “The Spot where | was born,” “ John Anderson my Jo,” “ A Man’s @ man for a’ thet,” the “ La: it of she Irish udiences which assemble to but beautiful song of “The May Queen” is ys listened to with the most pro. found interest, and during the recital many a glistening eye may be observed among the hundreds which are rected towards the song: Mrxopeons,—The negro minstrelay at this place of amusement, is very good, and the proprietor is doing a safe business. these pleasing performers, and the receipts are to be for the benefit ofthe company. Let them have a good one. ‘They give sixteen splendid groups. Raymond & Waring’s menageries, united, are at Pitts- burg, Pa; Herr Driesbach, the Lion King, is with them. City Intelligence. Somvnamnuniam ALOFT, aT WAR witH THE Wea- THERCOCK.—The most curious case of somnambu- lism on record, took place last Sunday night, about half-past eleven o'clock, in this city A man’ named Jesse Coombs, living at No. 609 ‘ater street. was discovered at the top of the liberty pole at the corner of Cherry and Gouverneur streets, turning the vane, He was watched by the police and a number of citizens, who had been attracted by his frequent attempts to change the position of the vane, which was as frequently moved by the wind, reminding many of the lookers on of the celebrated fight be- tween Don Quixotte and the windmill. After mak- ing several efforts to place the vane in the position he seemed to desire, down he came, and with a nimble- ness that the Jack tar might envy, on reaching terra firma, off he started, and was closely pursued Martin, 7th ward, and citizens, when, after a sharp run of neveral’ blocks, he was captured. He had ona shirt, drawers, hat and boote,and was taken to the station house by the officer.’ He could give no account of what occurred, and stated that he “felt as if he had been hard work.” His friends and clothes wm went for. The friends stated that he went to bed at 6 o'clock, and that he must have got out of the dor- mar window, as the doors were all locked. The pole has been measured, and stands one hundred and twenty- five feet high from the ground. ‘The man was three- | quarters of an hour in the position in which he was first overed. Tue Wratuen.—Yesterday was another remarkably fine day, and the fashionables flocked to Broadway, which was thronged {n all directions with groups of our | citizens and strangers, and in full costume. | Fines.—A fire broke out yesterday morning, at the co | ner of South street and Old Slip, occupied as a grocery. | extinguished %, Policeman Maxwell.

Tanoer Excunsion.—The Van Buren Blues, number- ing some sixty muskets, -passed our office qeteray morning on a target excursion, preceded by « fine band. They are a fine-looking set of fellows, and, from their ppearance, we should say would prove ugly customers ins fight with the Mexicane. Anornen,—Another fine-looking company, styled the | Oregon Guards, comprising about the same number of | muskets as the one above-mentioned, passed by soon after the other, on a similar excuraion. Anp AnotHen.—Engine Company No, 23 U. teer Guards, passed our office yesterday vvening about 5% o'clock, after being on a target excursion. Th target seemed pretty well riddled, The company were headed by an excellent band.

Assault with Intent to Kill.—Henry Coltonof No. 14 Barely street, who was arrested, it will be recollected ome four years ago on suspicion of having shot Corlies in‘Leonard street, near the Cariton House, was again arrested by officer Allenof the Fifth ward, yester- day morning, on a o of attempting to take the life of Sherman 8. Riley, commonly called the Doctor, while in the premises of Mrs. Cornelia Pastor, northwest corner of Broadway and Duane street, up stairs, the following circumstances :—It appears ince the affair of Corlies Colton and his wife have been pine together until within the last four weeks, when Mrs. Colton complained of ill treatment from her husband, and left the house, taking up her lodgings with Mrs, Pastor, where she re- mained two ks, and then went to board at the corn | of White street and Broadway, visiting occasionally, however, Mrs, Pastor; and on Saturday night last, Mre Colton called upon Mrs. Pastor, andon persuasion of Caroline, the daughter of Mrs. P., she being unwell at the time, Mrs Colton agreed to stay all night. and remained there all Sunday and Sunday night, likewise. On Monday morning about 100’clock, Riley, (who it is stated, slept in the igen that night on the sofa,) betag a sort of useful, good natured mn about the house, was asked by Mrs. Pastor if would go over to Mr. Heyer’s eating house under the Broadway theatre, and send them over some breakfast, at the name time requesting him to call at the door of Mrs. Colton, which was on the same floor, and ask her what she would like tohave Caroline, the daughter of Mra.

To tHe Epitor or tux New York Henatp :— Bran 81 :—My attention was called to the flattering notice you were pleased to make of my battery of light or mounted artillery, whieh took a part in the grand pa. rade and procession on the 19th October; upon which squad the honor was conferred by General Storms, of being placed on the left of the First Division of Artille- ry. You will please allow me to make a correction in yourstatement. In your article of the 20th October, you say * We understand that Captain Thistle is under orders to proceed to the seat of war with all possible haste.” You have been led into an error in this respect, as! 1 am under no orders,and do not belong to the service of the United States. The Battery you were pleased to make so favorable a mention of is my own private proper- ty, and was got up according to my own as the < most effective means of defence and attack of the Mexi- can guerillas, in their mountain fastnesses the guns, carriages and sinmunition can all be carried on the backs of mules or horses, wh:rever these robbers and cut throats are likely to aunoy a passing train. It is true I offered my services to the Government to raise # thousand men forthwith, te serve during our difficul- ties with Mexico, and proceed at once to the seat of war. This offer was not accepted, it not being “consistent with the arrangements of the department to receive into the service the regiment ** that I proposed raising In consequence cf the numerous questions, and the cu- riosity excited among the military, as well as citizens ge- nerally on the day of the parade, and which amid the bustle aud confusion of the moment, I found it impossi- ble to answer ins satisfactory manner,! now proceed with your kind permission to give a very brief description of my battery and its intended use. ‘The guns are of brass, No. 1 carries leaden oblong ball weighing four pounds, four rifle furrows cut in the ball, sof lead coming’ over the large end and filling up furrows, making @ smooth surf.ce, thus preventing gas from the powder giving a screw motion to the ball; when it leaves the muzzle of the gun the strips of lead drop from the ball the same as the patch from the ballof a rifle, the grooves take the atmosphere, which gives it the spiral motion with as much precision as if the gun was arifie itself. My fixed ammunition is composed of can- ister shot, as follows: No. 1, seventy-two musket balls; No 2, one huadred and forty rifle balls; No 3, balls of sixty to the pound, two hundred and forty; No 4, one thousand buck shot Gun No. 1, weighs two hundred and seven pounds, and is three feet four inches long; No 2, weighs one hundred and thirty-five pounds, and is two feet four inches long, and carries fifty musket balis. the horses onl; one hundred and eighty-thres pouads, but sufficiently streag for all practical purposes. Twelve mules, or norses, will ot my two guns and carriages, with all their outfite,and our hundred rounds of fixed ammunition, not Cia) over 230 pounds to each mule, including saddle. ith such @ train o mounted artillery, | can travel over any mule path or broken road with ease, from thirty to fifty miles per day, if necessary. Such {+ brief description of my new mounted battery, and there is no doubt but it will yet see service in Mexico, as I intend going to that country now in » few days, to take out ambulances, pontoon trains, baggage trains, tents, &o., which [ have got up on improved plans, all of which have been highly appro- ved of by the officers of the army, and by a board con- vened by order of the Secretary of War, and reported upon favorably, and recom: ed to be tested in the field at the expense of the government. T am going out to superintend and test their utility in the service, and shall take my mounted battery with mv to assiat in protecting the train | may be with, taking a sufficient number of men with me to work my guns, hoping to have an opportunity to test their utili , and prove their usefulness.
