The intelligence from France, as it appears in the English papers, is discouraging, infinitely more so than it appears through our Parisian correspon- dence. In fact, the most trifling émeute, the slight- est disturbance, is grossly exaggerated, and made to appear in the worst light possible. We cannot, as we have often before stated, place any reliance on French news received through the English press. Were the editors of the English journals even di- vested of prejudice, they are so little acquainted with republican institutions, or the proceedings of republican bodies, as to be incompetent to form a correct or reliable opinion on what is now trans- piring in France. That there have been trifling outbreaks, there can be no question; but they were trifling. That there are many parties in the Na- tional Assembly between whom there is a strong opposition, and each of whom is distrustful of the remainder, is equally true; but such a state of things 18 perfectly natural unde? the circumstances; and, as we in the United States know, is insepa- rable, in the nature of things, from the condition in which France is placed. It 1s only a few months since that country was a monarchy —she is now a republic—her legislators are divided in opinion as to the proper policy to be pursued. The various opinions are taking shape— be made available ; and it is unreasonable to sup- pose that thie can be done in a republic, at the commencement, without some effervescence, and perhaps tumult. This is the interpretation which we put on the last intelligence fromParis, which we do not think authorises the conclusions which have been formed by the English press. We shall publish in to- morrow’s paper our private foreign correspondence from Paris, from which accurate deductions can be drawn. From other parts of Europe the news is rather exciting. Spain has experienced, in a slight de- gree, the effects of the popular hurricane which is sweeping Europe. She, too, eventually, must feel its full effect. ‘The progress of democracy in that part of the world, though it may not be so fast, is sure, ‘We refer our readers to to-day’s paper for full particulars of the news by this arrival. They will perceive that there has been an insurrection in Na- ples, of a sanguinary character; that there is every probability of a collision between the military and the people in Ireland; for we believe it has been decided upon that John Mitchell, of the United Irishman, who has been convieted under the new act of Parliament, shall not, if the people can pre- vent it, be permitted to leave that country as a con- vict; and that the Poles have met with some re- verses, which may, for a time, protract the restora- tion of the nationality of their country. By the time they will have carefully perused this, we shall lay before them our foreign correspondence. The Nominations of Taylor and Cass, and Revolution of Parties. The prediction which we made, two years ago of the probable disorganization and reconstruction of the great political parties into which the Uni- ted States are divided, on new principles and new men, is going on rapidly, and will, we think, be fully consummated in course of time. The nomination of General Taylor by the whig national convention, under Southern influence, does not suit the views of the Northern or East- ern whigs of the abolition and socialist order, and indications are strong that there will be an inde- pendent Northern nomination, ‘at no distant day, in opposition to that made at Philadelphia. Henry Clay has been rejected and cast aside; and by what influence ? By Southern influence, and by that alone. He is froma slave State, and was ac- ceptable to the South ; but his supporters in the North advocated abolition, Fourierism, socialism, and all other visionary and impracticable schemes. Look at the course of the Tribune of this city, and see whether the friends of Mr. Clay, in the South, could take sides with them. It is impos- sible; and Mr. Clay has positively been killed by the Fourier and abolition principles which that paper, recognized as his organ, has long ad- vocated. A large portion of the whigs of New York, under these ultra feelings, have determined not to support General Taylor, and have avowed that determination. A large portion of the Fourier and abolition whigs of Massachusetts, like the | barnburners of New York, have designated the | 28th instant as a day for holding a convention to oppose General Taylor. Other Northern States, it 18 probable, will follow the example. In fact, 01 all sides, it 18 apparent that General Taylor will | not receive the hearty, undivided support of all | the whigs of the North—nor General Cass the un- divided support of the democracy. Under this state of things, then, it is probable that we shall have a third candidate in the present | eanvass; and, in this respect, the Fourier portion | of the whig party will resemble the barnburning | portion of the democrats, and, perhaps, fraternize | together on the same platform. A portion of the | Northern and Eastern whigs have already refused | to give their support to General Taylor, on the ground that his nomination was procured through | Southern influence; and a large portion of the de- moerats of this State refuse to support General Cass from preeisely the same motives. ‘The proba- bility, therefore, is, that the recusant factions of | or Peacr.—When the citizens of New Orleans | soon bo on the move from New York, No one ought gress, and thus prevent a great deal of ill-feeling | arrangements at this house are unsurpassed inthe payty, which may yet control the polities of the whole country. If such an event take place, the North willbe again arrayed against the South on the question of slavery, unless, ia the meantime, the matter shall be sutirfuctorily adjusted in Con- between different regions of the country. The matter is now in its incipiency. We shall see how it willend. One thing, however, is pretty evident, that the whig and democratic parties, 80 called, are about to be revolutionised, and new parties, new party lines, and new party issues, are about to be formed, the end of all of whieh no one can tell. In the midst of this disruption, secession, confusion and turmoil among both the old par- ties, we still believe that General Taylor will be electéd next President, if his supporters work like beavers through the summer, up to November.— General Cass cannot be defeated without great effort. Coor Reception, in N: York, or tHe News received the welcome news of the ratification of peace, they brought out their artillery, and made known their joy by loud peals of cannon thun- der; and suggestions were immediately made that a public rejoicing, with appropriate festivities, should mark their sentiments of delight at the re- turn of peace. But here, in New York, it was quite different. The news was voraciously devoured in Wall street, by the speculators in stocks, who, having devoured the morsel, retired within themselves to digest it, make calculations for their future course, and concoct schemes for outwitting their neighbors in their stock bargains; but never a word of good, generous, enthusiastic rejoicing, was heard. Poli- ticians read the news, and began at once to won- der what effect it would have upon the nominations or elections ; but no committee was appointed to see that a well defined and loudly proclaimed ex- pression of joy was uttered by the city. Politicians, brokers, merchants, and even trades- men and laborers, are too deeply engaged in their avocations to spare a little enthusiasm for the news of peace. So we go. But wait till the po- litical gamblers have played out their present hand. Wait till they cool down after their arduous duties of making candidates, and starting them on their political course. O! what rejoicings we shall have then! what mawkish expressions of gratitude will be heard everywhere ! Wait a bit, good peo- ple, till the politicians want you; they'll tell you when to hurrah for peace. Navar.—The United States ship Marion, Com- mander Simmons, arrived at Gibraltar on the 14th of May, from Marseilles. The Jamestown, Com- mander Bolton, sailed from Africa on the 19th of April, for Madeira. Schooner On-kashye, at Sandy Hook, will sail soon, direct for Chagres.

The United States took $450,000, and the packet ship St. Nicholas $99,000, for Havre. From Havana.—By the brig Augusta, at this port, and the Cherokee, at Charleston, we have files of the Gacéta, Diaro, and Faro Indusiriel, to the 30th ult. They contain nothing whatever of interest. ‘Theatrical and Musical. Bowery Tuxatre.-Mrs. Madison, long a favorite atta- ché of this theatre, took her benefit last evening on which occasion that admired tragedy,entitled the “Castle Spec- tre,’’ was performed for the first piece. Mr. Marshall took the character of Earl Osmond, Mrs. Jordan as Angela; and Mrs. Stickney as Alice. The piece is quite an af- fecting ome, and during its performance the audience appeared to feel the deepest interest in the fate of the heroine. At the close of the piece. Mr. Marshall, in compliance with repeated calls, came forward and made an appropriate acknowledgment of the compli- ment. On Monday evening next, the grand eastern spectacle of “ Cherry and Fair Star’ is to be produced in gorgeous etyle, in which Miss Mary Taylor is to make her appearance on the boards of this theatre as Cherry; also as Marton in the drama styled the « Pride of the Market.” This will prove a great card, and will draw crowded houses every evening during its p. formance. Nisto’s, Astor Piace, Broapway.—The perform- ances at this place, last night, were varied, and all most enthusiastically received by @ full house. The perform- ance commenced with agrand overture, “Norma,” after which the great attraction of the city, Les Dansueses Viennoise, appearedin the “ Pas Des Bergers,”’ which was loudly spplanded. The laughable vaudeville of “ He's not a Miss,’ was played, Mr. Sefton sustaining the character of Mr. Prottyman in such fine style as to keep the whole house convulsed with laughter. Miss Kate Horn sustained the character of Mrs. Aldgate in her usual graceful and successful stylo. The cclebrat- ed pianist, Maurice Strakosch, performed on his grand _ no, which met with the most deafening ap- ise ; and 80 great was the delight of the audience That he had to repeat his performance. The dansueses also appeared in “La Tyrolienne,” and * Gallope des Drapeaux,” which were received with equal favor. The city, and it is certainly a delightful place to spend an evening. Cuatnam Treatre.—This favorite little establish- ment of the people was again crowded to the utmost extent, last evening, when the “New York Milliners,” “Morning of Life,” and the musical comedy of the “gwiss Cottage,” were received with rapturous applause The entertainmentsJwere concluded with the fifth act of “Richard the Third,” in which those juvenile pro- gedies, Misses Denin, took the characters of Richard, and the Earl of Richmond. On Monday Weg rig Mr. P. Grattan, commences an engagement at this thea- tre, and first appears in the romantic drama entitled the “Rebel Chief,’ as Edward O’Brien. The drama called the “Chain of Guilt, or Wandering Will,” is also to be produced for the second time. Casttx Ganpen.—The weather, during the past week, has not been very favorable for Castle Garden; atill tho attendance has been good every evening, and the probabilities are, that & good season is coming for the proprietors. Madame Augusta’s dancing, and the pleasant farces played so tastefully by Holland and the dramatic company under his charge, have been highly ay pe prope by the audiences. Madame Augusta is de- edly one of the most skillful danseuses on the and her en; ment last week showed great ent on the part of French & Heiser. To-night the i Sunday evening concert will be given, and the Garden will be open as usual for promenade, refreshments, &e. Stoxons Bortesini, Anpitt, aNd Desverxine’s Con CERT at THE TapERNacte —The reputation of Signor Bottesin{, the celebrated double bass player, is so well established in cur city, that it is almost unnecessary for him to add other names to his own, to attract an immense audience at his concert. Nevertheless, the musical soirée announced for Monday evening will bring before the public the Signors Arditi and Desver- nine; the first a very remarkable violinist, whom we often 2 iene last year, when he was the leader of the Hispano-Italian Company; and the second a talented ea nist, whom the newspapers of Havana and New Orleans have pronouaced to be worthy of a high reputation. The bill made A by these artists is vory good, and will enable the public to hear them in solos, duos, and trios, and to appreciate their talent im all its diversity.

The Great Western brings no news from St. ‘Thomas or Demerara. For late and somewhat important news from the British colonies, we refer to the annexed letter from our correspondent at Bermuda:— Benauna, June 5, 1848. ‘The monthly steamer of the royal mail West India line is appointed to start for your city to-morrow morn- ing. and | avail myself of the opportunity to send you such news as local events and the intelligence from the ‘West Indies afford. Our Governor has récontly received a very important despatch from Earl Grey, conveying the Queen’s as- sent to an aet of the Legislature, passed last year, “ to repeal certain duties of customs.”? This ix a great boon, The customs establishment, hitherto main- tained at very considerable expense to the colony, will be abolished on the Sth July, proximo; and the dread of an onerous pension-list is entirely removed by the happy fact that the imperial government will itself provide for the officers whose duty will then ter- minate. Our Legislature will create, by an act, a co- lonial revenue board, exactly suited to our own exi- gencies ; and, as we have the power of framing a scheme of revenue adapted to the trade of the colony and the economical support of its institutions, I flatter myself that the new Bermudian tariff will bear com- parison with that of any country, for a beautiful sim- plicity of detail, and an equitable arrangement of tax- ation on im enerally. ‘We have ipping, during the last three weeks, large quantities of onions and potatoes to the West Indies and South America.

Barsavogs.—His Geta Colonel Reid, has re- signed thi overnment. This act of the worthy Colonel is to have been induced by the reopening of the case of Chief Justice Reddie, through instruc- tions from England. Governor Reid, you are aware, suspended Judge Reddie from office; aod a Court of Enquiry, after a long and searching investigation, concurred in the removal of the judge. No reason is given why this case is again to bo looked into. Ground provisions were plentiful at Barbadoes. Sugar was selling at $3 per owt. There is nothing of moment from the other colonies. “Latest from Mexico Cuarreston, June 9—10 P. M.

Sporting Intelligence. Tue Twenty Mite Trortinc Marcu,—The contest between Ajax and Marian, for $2000—distance twenty miles—over the Centreville Course, came off yesterday afternoon, Although the excitement in sporting cir- cles was great, and much anxiety manifested as to the result, yet, from the unfavorable aspect of the wea- ther, the attendance was not so great as had been anticipated. Those present, however, were gratified by witnessing the performance of a feat which, as regards time and distance, has never been equalled. ‘The entire distance was gone over un- der the saddle, although there were no restrictions a: fo harness. It was originally intended the mare shoul goin that manner; but from counter advice in the morning, that determination was departed from. Shoe had been accustomed to harness, and not to the sad- dle, and this change seems to have been an unwise one. Hadit not been made, tho result might have been different. Both age wore in capital condition, and jockeyed in an admirable manner—Ajax by Isaac Woodruff, and Marian by Colonel Bartine The betting was in favor of Ajax, the odds being 100 to 30. The track was very good, late rains having much improved it. The pole was won by Ajax. THE RACE. Precisely at 34g minutes to 40’clock they started, at rather a slow galt, Ajax taking the lead by about two leagths ; although it was evident that his rider pre- ferred waiting on the mare, This position was un- changed for the first seven miles, during part of which the mare seemed rather unsteady, but afterwards went remarkably well. On the eighth mile she took the lead and passed Ajax, but soon again fell in the rear, where she remained until the tenth mile was reached. when she went in front again, and kept that position to the fourteenth. As they reached the score Ajax passed her, plainly evincing his abilit to do so at any point of the race. On the sixteenth mile, symptoms of weakness began to manifest them- selves in the marc, and it was apparent that her strength was inadequate to carrying weight, and that she should have gone in harness. Her efforts, however, did not flag, and this mile was made in quicker time than several in the early part of the race, as was also the seventeenth. Entering on the eighteenth mile, it was evident she could proceed but jittle farther, and it was painful to witness her efforts to keep up with Ajax, who did not appear in the least distressed. On reach- ing the draw-gate, and while passing her owner, he or- dered her to be held up, which was done. and she came in, scarcely able to trot along, in one hour and three seconds, Had she not been held up, she would have made the eighteen miles a few seconds within the hour, and as it is, she has proved herself an extraordinary nag. Ajax now having a clear track, kept on at his own gait for the remaining two milos, and accomplished the twenty miles in 67 minutes 37%; seconds, as the fol- lowing summary will show: Time per Mile a7 Total Time.

She has on board fifty-nine passengers, and $450,000 in specie. She was delayed one hour behind her appointed time, for what purpose we did not learn. In the mean time, an im- mense number of persons gathered along the wharves and on the Battery, attracted thither as much by the singular manouvering of the steamer Southerner in the bay, as by the event of the departure of the United States, It was soon understood that Capt. Berry in- tended giving the United States a trial, for which pur- pose he delayed his departure one hour, having left his dock at 40’clock. As the United States rounded off the Battery,under the fort on Governor's Island, the South- erner, near a half a mile astern, moved towards her, and whena short distance beyond Quarantine, she crossed the bows of the United States. The Southerner was light and in good trim, while the United States was heavily laden and had probably not yet got fairly under way; she went down, however, majesticall and at a vi rapid pace; but the speed of the South- erner on this occasion was incredible; although her qualities for speed are well known, yet her performance yesterday astonished every one present. ‘The United States appeared to the utmost advan- tage; she is, without any exception, the most imposing looking vessel that ever entered our harbor.
