Principle was the polar star to guide the democracy, and it would lead them on to vietory, in November next; and the news from New York would be hailed on the banks of the Obio, as it had been before, with universal delight and exulta- tion.

A meeting of the whigs, opposed to the proceed- ings of the Philadelphia Convention, and favora- ble to the nomination of Henry Clay, for the Pre- sidency, assembled last night at the Broadway Hou » meeting was organized thew L. Davis, Esq., to the ¢ who stated the object of the meeting, viz:—the re-organization of the waig party as it stood before the meeting of the Philadelphia Convention. The meeting being organized, Mr. Wagner, alias the Poughkeepsie Blacksmith, rose and address- ed the people. He said he had always opposed the submission of the orth to the South, but now, having been completely muzzled by Southern in- fluen in, the late “convention, it was ume for the whig party to take the matter in hand, and act for themselves. In Henry Clay were embodied all the at principles of whiggery, (upplause) but in General Taylor they hada man, like the Irish- by calling Mat- man’s flea, when you pat your finger on him he is | not there. When Gen. Taylor is asked what ¢ his views on the leading principles as advocated by the whig party, he says he does not know; and he always found such men, in the end, to be locofoco: Hoxace Greece, Esq., was then called for, and ap- peared amid the deafening shouts of those prerent. He did not exactly feel able to say what would be the re- sult of his consider: though he was opposed to ‘Vaylor, and favorab!

The nomination was effected by browbeut- < and wirepulling politicians. He wished an organi- zation to be effected in this city, as soon as possible. that it might have time to affect the other section: o this State and of the whole country. He would like to explain himself, relative to his vote on the last ballot in that convention, On the first ballot, he had ob- tained the vote of five persons fayorabie to the nomi- nation of General Scott, upon the promiae that when all hope had fled for the nomination of Mr. Clay. he | would vote for Scott. and as an honest mau he did so He went into the convention a Clay whig, and came out of it a Clay whig, and was nothing else’ but a Clay w Dovuey Seivex, Esq , was then called for, who spoke at leagth upon the policy of the great whig party. He was fiyorable to the nomination of Mr. Clay, was op- posed to the nomination at Philadelphia, and would not sustain it. (‘Premendous cheering.) ‘That Convention had, by Southern influence, again beat down the North. and he for one would go in for an or- ganization of all the whigs, and nominate a third party, A large portion of the democracy were opposed to the nomination of Cass,and would not support him. \ large portion, indeed. nearly all the whig party, were | opposed to the nomination of Taylor and would not support him.

Doctor Holmes. who made a post. mor- tem examination of the body, was ot opinion that the ebild was born a live, and th was caused by the fracture on the head.

The Progress of the Canvass. We give, in another column, a full report of the democratic ratification mecting held in the Park, and in Tammany Hall, last evening. The speech- | es were very eloquent, and the number of spec- tators exceedingly large. This is the second great gun from the democracy. The whigs will have their ratification meeting to-morrow, in the same place. It promises to be a stormy affair, in consequence of the disappointment | of a portion of that party in Mr. Clay not being f | nominated by the \‘ hig National Convention. We shall give a full report of that meeting, hkewise. While these proceedings are going on, the dis- satisfied factions and off-shoots of the two parties are in a state of effervescence, turmoil and confu- sion. The long tried friends of Mr. Clay, as they call themselves—or the long expectant friends of that statesman, as we term them—cannot digest General Taylor’s nomination. They have no gua- | rantee that he will give them office; but they had a claim on Mr. Clay. They celebrated his birth-day regularly every year since his defeat in 1844—and | contracted many headaches from over-devotion to him and his cause. These sufferings and privations may go unrewarded in case of Gene- \ ral Taylor’s election—and the bare idea of it | is unpleasant, and even harrowing, to their sen- | sitive feelings. ‘They cannot bear to see their lofty castle of cards demolished in an instant, and | their hopes of office destroyed. They are, there- fore, desperate, and talk of organizing Clay clubs and doing other dreadful things. Well, let them doit. The more division and disunion among the parties, the better—and the sooner will come that grand upheaving of political factions, which we have, from time to time, predicted would be of service to the country. There is every indication that this will be the most exciting and interesting Presidential election | that has ever taken place in this country. Party will be arrayed against party, faction against fac- tion, office-seeker against office-seeker; and from the present time till November next, the United States will be like a tremendous menagerie of large lamp of meat. There is nothing like fun; and the lovers of the vember. ‘Tue Covrr or Inquiry.—This everlasting, uni- versal and sickening farce, is still going on. Its proceedings continue, from day today and week to week, to sicken at heart, disgust and discourage | the American people, and make them wish, most heartily, that the actorstherein had settled their | quarrels among themselves, and not inflicted their | recital and settlement on the country. We have | published extracts of the proceedings from day to | day, when we thought they were at all interesting | to the general reader; but have made no com- | ment on them for some time. The truth is have got heartily tired of the whole matter, and | we are confident that our readers are in the same | situation. When news of the ratification of the | treaty of peace by the Mexican Congress was re- ceived, we thought there was hope that the farce | would be brought to an end, and consigned to ob- | livion ; but we are extremely mortified to find that there is every probability of its being inflicted on | | us some time longer, as it is understood that Mr. | Polk will not issue an official announcement of the conclusion of the war until the troops reach the frontier. This will give time for the Pillow case | to be concluded; and, perhaps, time for the charges | preferred by that officer against Gen. Scott, to be | enquired into. We may, therefore, expect a con- | tinuation of our miseries for a time longer. We regret exceedingly that the administration | have taken this course. It would have been, in our opinion, much better to allow this piece of tomfoolery to die with the war in which it origi- nated. It was only the after-piece of the great pro- gramme which the United States has been per- | forming for the last two years. We had the great drama first, in several acts; and it was, perhaps, only right that the monotony should be varied, and ¢ afarce should end the amusements. But what reason is there that the spectators should be surfeit- edto death with the last piece 2 It would be bet- | ter to allow the curtain to drop, and the actors to retire, | We sympathise with the poblic in their misfor- tunes in this respect, and shall take pleasure in informing them, by electric telegraph, of the end of this Court of Inquiry—-if end it will ever have. Meantime, we beg of them to be patient, and bear manfully with the infliction. The punishment may be of service to them, and make them mem- bers of society for the rest of their lives. Marine Affairs. Tur New Yacnr Bareze.—This is the name of a beautiful yacht, of 100 tons burthen, schooner rigged, launched at Port Jefferson, L.1., on Saturday last. She is said to be one of the finest modelled vessels of her | class now afloat, and is rigged and equipped with a | view of rendering her the most perfect, and we may add, | the fastest, among the many elegant vessels that now compose the fleet of New York yachts, Sho is owned and commanded by Lefferts G. Cole, Esq., of this city, who, we learn, is aided in the administration of affairs | on board, and in his arduous marine duties, by a gen- tleman distinguished no less for his taste in these matters than his skill in providing for the wants of the inner man. Tue Stramenie Cuenoner.—Captain Collins’ new sheamship Cherokee, was launched at six o'clock last evening. An immense concourse of persona, the ma- Jority of whom were ladies, assembled on the wharves, | steamers and houre tops inthe vicinity. She was taken tothe Novelty yard, where her engine wil) be put on board with the utmost despateh, Packet Suir Horrivaven, Captain Bureley arrived | yesterday, from Liverpool. ‘She had on bonrd 440 pas- gers, not one of whom was sick during the passage This is very creditable to Captain Bursley and his off. cers, and speaks well for the management of the ship, Raliroad Matters. The cars on the Northern (N. H.) Railroad wore to | sweet smelling and euphonious name of barnbur- wild beasts, among whom the keeper has thrown a | John Van Buren, and known at home, here, by the ners, are attracting the attention of the politicians of all parties, inevery State of the Union. Their great champion, John, is decidedly a genius—far ahead of his respected father, the retired inmate of Lindenwald. He is almost ubiqnitous. One day we find him in the Park, eloquently addressing some four or five thousand Mcofocos, of all shades, vhom he amuses and delights with his sarcasm, invective and wit. He adjourns from there to take a drink in Broadway; and the next tidings we hear, are, that he is in full blast at Albany, denouncing Cass and the hunkers, standing up manfully for the non-extension of slavery, and belaboring the | South with a cat-o’-nine tails. xt we hear of him getting up a convention at Utica; and now we learn he is on his way to Rochester, Buffalo, and other cities in the interior, where he has announc- ed his determination of carrying on the game which he has so successfully commenced, and making New York too hot for the hunkers. He may be mad; but there isa good deal of method in his madness, and much more tact and shrewd- ness than people imagine. It cannot be questioned that John Van Buren’s influence 1s very great, and will become greater every day. The question is therefore asked, on all sides, what will he do? Wéall he continue to tread the course he has marked out?—will he ad- here to the Wilmot prov iso, and sink or swim on that question? We think he will; and if he do, we have no doubt that his influence will extend beyond the limits of this State—that it will reach all the Northern, Eastern, and Western States, and that it may perchance result in the severance of the Northern from the Southern portion of the democra- tie party; and that the question will lead to a great deal of acrimony and hard feeling between the ex- treme North and extreme South, and perhaps end in another Missouri compromise, leaving John Van Buren and his party in the ascendancy. Such result may be deferred for a time, in case General Taylor be elected. The ques- tion of whether the slave territory of the United States shall or shall not be increased, must, we think, be met and decided, sooner or later. The barnburners on one side, and the ultra slavery men in the South, are bringing the mat- ter to a crisis, and to all appearances, this promises to become the great question of the day. If General Cass be defeated, the barnburners would gain a vast accession in all the Northern and free States, and will be prepared to take their stand as a separate party, in the Presidential canvass of 1852, with strong probabilities of success—if the question be not decided in the meantime. Congress is silent at present on this question, and it will, if possible, be kept out of sight in the present canvass. To agitate it in either house would serve no party, whig or democratic. Even if John Van Buren were induced to abandon his position, and concur in supporting General Cass, we doubt very much whether his party, in the interior of the State would follow his example. He has raised a spirit which he can direct, but which he cannot smother. The principle which he main- tains, and of which he is the chosen expounder, has taken a deep root in the interior of the State, | and will not be abandoned by those who have enlisted under it. Meantime, the movements of the barnburaers, from now till the meeting of their convention on the twenty-second instant, will be watched with much interest. Senators Hannegan, Allen, Houston, Foote, and others, are doing their utmost to pro- duce a reconciliation; but we doubt if they have met with any success. We would not be surprised if they nominate Churchill C. Cambreleng or Ben- jamin F. Butler, formerly of Sandy Hill, as their candidate for the Presidency. How tue Mieuty nave EN, r Henry L. Bulwer, the British Minister to Spain, has been regularly kicked out of Madrid, and was forced to pack up his duds and make tracks for London, in the shortest time possible. This is, decidedly, the unkindest cut of all. To feel herself powerless in | the prevention of the spread of republicanism in | Europe, is certainly bad enough—to bé in a state of alarm and anxiety, lest the great French repub- | lie might land an army on her shores, and verify the forebodings of the Duke of Wellington, is more than her worst enemies would wish her ; but that | Spain—should kick her minister out of the coun- | try, and England be compelled to pocket the insult, is decidedly the ne plus ultra of national in- | dignity. If the opinion of the world were taken on the subject, we have no doubt that | it would be similar to the verdicts of “served him right,” which coroners’ juries, in the western portions of this country, sometimes render. But, right or wrong, England, hitherto, has cared little for the opinion of civilized nation: | when she had the power to disregard it. To b+ in- | sulted in the open day, before the whole world, in | the way she has been recently by Spain, and be powerless to resent it, argues that the Queen ot the Seas has wonderfully fallen from her high estate. Verily, she is to be pitied, althosgh her misfortunes are the natural result of her owa dot 5. | Sporting Intelligence. | Cenraevitte Course, L. I—Taortina,—Yesterday | was a day of chagrin and disappointment to those who | visited the trotting track with the expectation of wit- | nessing a spirited contest in the $600 match, The igh-sounding names of the horses—Fireaway and | Nensuch—no doubt impressed upon the.minds of the | uninitiated. that speed, little short of lightning. would be accomplished; but sporting gentlemen, like all other good christians, have to endure their share of vexation and disappointment; and in this case, the hopes of the | exy ts, on the arrival of Fireaway at the stand, | suddenly fell from the highest fever heat to several de- | grees below zero. On inspection, the horse exhibited some very remarkable polnts. which, however, were not | exactly indicative of speed—for instance, in endeavor | ing to place his feet firmly on the ground, he mani- | fosted the ageny of a | first time. has got his into a pair of tight brogans, lifting them up and putting them down as lightly as | possible. His fore pins much resembled those in a bowl- ng-alley, being larger in the middle than or end; in fact. take him all in all, he was “a rum ‘un” to look at. The other, with the unapproachable putro- nymic of Nonsuch, was ali that his name expressed. | His pedigree is lost; but h would auger that he descended from the great Buce | lus, whose progeny might have found their way into Spain. and being crossed subsequently with the blood of the famous Rosinante, produced the gallant chargers | that were sont, in the time of Ferdinand and Isabella, to the West India Islands; and which afterwards form: ed « portion of the invailing cohorts of tuat distin- | guished conqueror of Mexico, Cortes; and at length | were transplanted to North America, where they in- creased and multiplied t> an alarming extent; but | being little admired in these latter days, with the de- | | conse of Nonauch, the race will become extinct; an | event not much 'to be lamented, io that as it inay. there is no doubt but that the trotting track would | | thrive much better, should none such ever again ap- | pear in a public race. it_ was, however, Nonsuch | struck his colors, without a struggle. to “Old Whitey, by forfeiting the match, and the owner of the cripple pocketed the $600. Subsequently, a few of the spectators, desirous of having some Fport. waited on the owner of Nonsuch, and insisted on a trinl of speed between these never-to- be celebrated trotters, at the same time offering to wager | $50 to 26 that Fireaway would beat him; which banter was taken up, and judges were appointed to see fair play in the race, which was to be the same distance as the original match, two miles and repeat, to 250 Ib, wagons. | The two hents were very similar, both in the rate of «peed and manner of performance Fireaway took the | lwad at the start, and kept it throughout the race. | onsuch lay elote up with him, though, owing tothe jiful generalship of Whelan, who. when he found | himself dropping off in the trot. would vary the gait of his charge, and indulge him with a ran, until he had recovered his wind, and reached the position that euit- | ed him bert, To be sure it was nsserted by some, and believed, too, that when the horse broke, Mr. Whe- lan get bim down ngain as soon as he could, while others thought differently; but then, trotting men, a« well as doctors, will disagree.

To-night the same bill of performances will be repeated. We are glad to see the Bowery so well patronised. | Nisto’s, Astor Piace.—This fashionable place oft) amusement was better attended last evening than on any previous occasion, The two first tiers and par- quette, were crowdedsto excess; the third tier, which is seldom oce was ‘well filled by those who arrived too late to find room in the lowr | boxes. ‘The performance was attractive, and consisted | of @ new programme, which was a pot pourri, or rather concertina, given by forty-cight Viownese children, who sung several German, Italian, and American glees, with which the audience were much delighted. The dance of the “ Pas Hongrois,” and that of the “ Pas des Fleurs,”? won. as usual, a rich harvest of Spplausty ‘The farces of “ The Man without a Head,” and“ John Jones,” excited roars of laughter, and did credit to the actors who performed the principal parts. ‘The same pot pourri is announced for to-night, together with several dances and vaudevilles, which ensure Mr. Niblo another crowded hous Cuatuast Tueatre.—This house was filled to over- flowing last night, and the perfermances went off with greft eclat. After the amusing farce of “New York Miliners,”* the drama of the “Rebel Chief,’ by H.P.Grat- tan, was performed, the author of it likewise playing the principal character of Edward O'Brien. This play is one which has always been received with much favor | by the public; its story is ono calculated to excite the | sympathies of us republicans, and at the same time is of great interest to those of frish descent, turning the plot does, on the struggles of the Irish in '98. Mr. Grattan pourtrayed his hero very well, indeed admira- bly; and the manly dignity which he bestowed on the character added much to the effect of the piece. He was well sustained by the rest of the company; and al- together his engagement at the Chatham promises to be a succossful one, To-night he will again appear as O'- Brien. and the drama of the Morning of Life” and tho | rest of the bill. CastLe Ganpex.—There was a good attendance here last evening, and the pieces set down in the bill were well played, and received with applause “Done on both Sides,” and the drama of “Lavater,” with Nic- kinson, Holland, Mra, Vernon, Miss Phillips, Mi Nickinson, &6., in the principal parts, were really capi- tally performed.

Tanerxacie.—Siexons Bortesixt, AxpiT1, anp Desy vernine's Concent.——These three talented artists-—the last of whom was the only stranger to us—gavo, last evening, their announced great concert at the Taber nacle, and it wasattended hy a vory respectable and fashionable audionce, composed of ail the pretty ladies and all the dilleitanti of Mauhattan Island. Besides those three performers, Madame Pico, whose acceutu- ation and rich voice are always admired, aud Signor Vietti, the late sweet.tenor of the Astor Place Italian company, were announced ou the bills, and sang to | the great delight of their numerous feiends. Signor Bottesini has, if possible, much improved since last year, He possesses the same elasticity, purity, and elegance of style ; but there is, also, in this artist a better knowledge of his instrament, which he manages with as much skill as ever Paganini did his fantastical violin, and he is decidedly the “ ninth wonder of the world.” Such a horrible looking and unhandy instru- ment as the double bass, when under his magio fingers. is rendered as harmonious and melodiousas a violin. The highly talented artist was, at each time, received with unbounded applause. Signor Bottesini performs also, or rather accompanies, as a maestro. on the piano- forte, Signor Arditi is also a fine artist, His style makes us remember the playing of Signor Nagel. M. | Desvernine, the third in this pleiad of stars, seems to possess an admirable knowledge of his instrument, ‘We do not mean to classify him among those pianists who havo visited this country; but it is our opinion that he will always please his hearers, wherever he may go, Signora Pico and Signor Vietti were in excellent voice, and were admirably accompanied by maestro Barili, another capital artist. We trust we shall soon be favored with another treat by these excellent ar- tists. nisty’s Minstrets go on as finely as ever, and increase, if possiblo, in their attractions every evening. We need not say anything more than that in these high pressure timés of excitement, political and other. wiso. ths soirées of this band are tho most refreshing | affairs going. We commend all to patronise them— | | particularly any whose minds arc unfortunately troubled with what Shakepeare calls “thick coming fancies.”? Christy's singing will clear them off. Metopeow.—The return of Miss Reynaldson to this house has been quite a pleasure to the patrons of it, as her singing has always been much admired thero, | What with her eweet bailads xnd the Ethiopian sing- ing of the racy Virginia Minstrels, quite a pleasant evening can be passed at the Melodeon. i Aston Piace Orena Hovsr.—The lease of this os- tablishment, held by Sigs.

City Intelligence Tue Wraturr.—Yesterday was a vory pleasant day. | ‘The morning was considerably cooler than the day | before, but the general temperature of the day was delightful. The sky was perfectly clear during the whole day. and the wind very high, from the north- west, which rendered it very disagreeable in the su- burbs of the city, The night was beautiful and clear, and presented every appearance of a continuation of | fair weather. | Tur Gas Contnact.—A contract was sometime | since entered into between the Cerporation and the | Manhattan Gas Co., for the lighting of tho whole of the upper part of the city with gas. ‘Tho stipulation is, | that work to the amount of $6000 per year shall be | done. until the whole shall be completed. © Already has the work begun, though so short a time has elapsed since the sealing of the contract ; and the pipes aro now laid in Fourth avenue, as far up as Thirty-second street. This work has been promptly commenced, though numberkees resolutions which have passed the Common Council, directing the lighting of the different streets with gas, which have not yet been touched. The one is the lighting of the upper avenues, which are becoming great business streets, and of course, will prove sources of great profit; and it is policy at once to prepare for the new stores building on them; while the others are generally private streets, which are wholly and entirely used as streets of resi- dence, The latter are parsed unnoticed, from the fact that there will not probably arise much profit, so few dwellings belog lighted with gas; and the laying of the pipes for street lights, at the rates paid, will re- quire several years to return the amount expended. It is generally the case with corporations, as it is with in- dividaais. If you show them a chance to make a great profit, they are quick to take hold of it; but if there should be ® work which will not yicld so much, it i ft undone as long as possible, though there may ox- | ist an obligation to dothe ame. ‘There are many streets in the upper part of the city, in which whole | blocks together, are only runken lots, and which hardly | require a light at all, while there are many in the lower part of the city lighted with miserable oii lamps, which do not burn half the time; some of which are in the immediate vicinity of the lower gas house. The Com- mon Couneil has provided for the upper part of the city, while the lower and densely populated parts, are carcely ever thought of. Disanacerut Coxpvet.—It has boen the universal | practice of the city authorities never to allow the Go- cal occasions, to elther one party or the other. ‘There was a demand made yesterday, at the beginning of the great democratic meoting, by a number of persons, for Ince on the esplanade of the hall, which can be | reached only by the passage through that room. The demand was denied, when those present foreibly enter- ed the room, by breaking the lock. ‘This ix a cleat caso | of burglary, though there might be nv intention to | Meal.” Those offending were principally balf-grown | boys, aided by a few men, who, perhaps, have as little regard for the right of suffrage, as they have for their | charaoter Srrawnennins.—It is said that on Saturday last.there | wore sold in the city, as nearly as could be ascertained, | one hundred thousand baskets of strawberries, at an | average of four cents per basket, amounting to anag- | gregate of $4,000. Ture Common Couren Tra: Tant past (here has stood in legible | door of the corporation ten-room, «No admittance. @x-— cept for members of the Common Council.” At the meeting of the Board of Aldermen last ovening, there wasa resolution offered, to tender to the reporters con- nected with that board, an Invitation to the tea-table, which was, of course, laid on the table. ‘This may have emanated from some one connected with the press; but if ro, we are not aware, The members of the prest—Fo far. nt least, as the Herald ix concerned—would repel rool an insult, and treat it with the contempt it merits. ‘Thoy ure perfectly able to pay for their own living. and require not the narrow ininded charity of the corpora. tion, if those do who reek a place in that body for the mere ir food and segars, and an Joonslousl vist. &> thes institutions, members of re iy its The sterling N farce of“ Land Sharks and Sea Gulls” will make up the | # | streets, not ble and insignitionnt obaeities of cor. pornte a ’ Dest h0etion OF vue Barrut Chvnca ix Nokvorw sTirtr.—-A fire broke out about 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon, in the roof of the Baptist Church, corner of nik nnd Broome streets. ‘Phhe building was en- teceyed together with a valuable organ.

Desrreetive Fine in Brooxtyx.—A fire broke out early this morning in the rear of the house occupied by Pailip Donoherty, on Evans or Water street, adjoining the Navy Yard, and communicated to Mr. (O’Brien’s, ® five story house, on Plymouth street, occupied by twelve families, then to Mr. Monahan’s house and sta- ble, and continued thence to spread with great rapidity, destroying at least ten houses.

Whit, in common with large numbers of our citizens, I have & high senso of the merits of the distinguished individual tor whom tie courtesy of a pablic wception is prvposed, Tdo_ not regard the fact of Lis being a cand-date of a party for the high station allt. ded to, av constituting any just ground for making bim the sub- Ject of m ceremonial of this’ nature; as under the cirenmstances, such a demonstration must neoessarily assume somewhat a party of an Morris Franklin, talisies of the city to General Cass, and to make such ished station which character, It is not one in which the city authorities may le gitimately patie pace, ai d, if the custom becomes established in Such cases it would be dificult in the rivalries of parties for the Honefiea which may result, or fur the reputation of liberality tor wards their adversarier, to fix any defluite limit within which the practice can be restrained, Forming as this does, the first instance, during my official con- nection with the city prepest of a violation of what I he- lieve to bea salutary rulo, I feel It to bemy duty to make this communication. As no opportunity was afforded for expression of thos. viows, before the reslutioa had been so faracted upon as to make it imposst le to recede, I did not feel at linerty to embarrass the Szraugemente of the commni:too, by declining to co-operate with them, but did so co-operate, and at the same time expressed to them what I will now taxe occasion, respectfully, to repeat to your honorable body—“That my participation in this proceeding iuust not be drawn intoa precedent, in favor of the principle which itgeems to me to involve, or an Sppeerel of the resolution itself.” V.
