(Translated from Democratic Pacifique, July 10 } ¢ following detailsare given by the Siécle, regard- fing this operation. It seems that it has been judged mevesrary to completely disarm three ns and thirty ies in the other legions, without reckoning disarmings. At a meeting of the Mair wrondissement, which took piace on the 6th, the Maire of Paris presided. At ‘thir meeting there was first given in an account of the sum total of general and partial disarmments which had been effeoted among the various legions. The disarmment is much advanced in the 8th legion; it is effected without any difficulty. However, in seve- yal quarters it had not been done thoroughly. It would be necessary to make further searches to com- plete the work, and the guardians of the city of Paris ‘ware requested to give their authority. The Boulevard ef Beaumarchais is yet to be searched. In some parts, eonsiderable quantities of arms have been discovered, the Quai Valmy, where two hundred mus- Aets were found. In the tth Legion the disarming ir complete ; 7,086 muskets were distributed. The suthorities have col- Booted 7.500, without counting those which after the fighting were found in the houses or taken from the in- i mie. ° In the 12th Legion the operation was complete, and fhere have been deposited in the public stores many more armg than were distributed In the other arron- @issements but partial disarmings have been made.— From the 4th Legion eleven companies have been dis- armed, and 1500 muskets taken. The 2nd Legion has nly two companies entirely disarmed. The , 4th, Sth, 6th, and 7th Legions are undergoing the process, In general, the operation of disarming has been feeted without any resistance, and in many instances with the greatest ease. At the meeting it was stated that some definite law would be required to meet the difficulties that may pre- sent themselves in the course of these disarming pro- eenses. It would seem reasonable that citizens resid- ing in furnished lodgings should not be armed and that the conditions of their dwellings should be exa- mined, THE LATE ARCHBISHOP. It is proposed by M. de Saint Priest, to erect a mo- nument to the memory of the late Archbishop of Paris, the name and at the expense of tbe State, as a na- tional testimonial of admiration cf i's character and piety. M.L’Abbe Cour will pronounce the funeral eration at the church of Notre Dame. He was an in- timate friend of the venerable prelate. The pastors of the two Protestant churches in Paris expressed their st at the funeral of the Archbishop, and just homage to his death and memory. M. Athanase Coquerel, one of their number, and a re- presentative in the Assembly, was delegated to com- municate with the Abbe Jaquemet, the first grand vi ear, and express to him the unanimous sentiments of the Protestant clergy, and inform him of their inten- tion to follow the funeral cortége from the house of the Archbishop up to the dour of the cathedral, provided they could be £0 placed in the procession as to avoid infiinging on their conscientious seruples as Protest- ants, that is to say, where they would take no part in any of the ceremonies. It appears, however. that this eould not be done, so they were prevented from fol- lowing in the procession. THE NEW MINISTER OF INSTRUCTION. _ The Paris Commerce, alluding to the appoint- ment of M. Vaulabelle as Minister of Public In- struction, says: “M. de Vaulabelle fought for a long time in the phalanx of the opposition press. He edited the Mes- sager when that journal wore an independent counte- mance. For several years M. de Vaulabelle was engaged in the publication of several volumes on the History of the Restorations of 1814 and 1815. This work is written with talent, dignity, and independence. We hope that M. de Vaulabelle will comprehend a little better than his predecessors the wants of our period, and that we shall find in him a protector of liberal Mas.” ‘The Univers, on the same subject, says : “This choice is deplorable, M. de Vaulabelle is a writer of the sehool of the National. There are in his books, generally unreadable, pages upon the subject of the clergy which ought to have prevented his being wade Minister of Public Worrhip. As Minister of Public Ipstruction, he is a worthy successor to M. Carnot, if the Atsembly leaves him the time to con- tinue the work of any person.” THE DENIAL OF M. DE LAMARTINE. Panis, July 6, 1848. Morsrevx:— ‘Throvgh respect for the crisis of my country, as well as through rerpeet for the common sense of the public, Thave aliowed to pass by without remark the torrent of malevolence, calumny, and absurdity which is always poured forth, for a certain lapse of time, over the names, acts, and intentions of the men whom events elevate or precipitate in periods of revolution. Light will at some time burst forth of itself, and will restore te euch fact and each man the real phisiognomy which Delongsito them. Iam not imputient of justice, for I have no doubt of the future, But I have this moment read part of ap article which has been lately published im the Journal des Débuts, and in which the madness ef calumny is carried to the following imputations :— “In the last days of Febroary the paviy one were searvel) weplaced, when the new government thought of being prepared, If neeestary, to raie up agin the barriea: lust the National Guard and sca nst the part of the population which it was pre- fended was animated reactionary spirit—an asensation which heneoforword falls on all the friends of soci was jormed secretly a barricade battalion, the membe Were to serve as instructors in ever7 quaricr, end they were thes. getically taught the art of constiueting them with the greatest srible rapidity, and of placing them most a Eorricotes were inarked down ou a mopof Paris; aud hers wore indicated also the edifices and monuments to be fortified, in qrier to make of them coutral citadel.

To see myself transformed into a professor of eivil war and a preparer of carnage—I, ‘who for four months every day presented apy breast to the multitude, in order to spare the shedding of one rop of blood of my fellow citizens !—there is no reply for this— thr re is only acry of indignation which bursts forth from the bottom of my heart, and which I pray you to register in your columns. © LAMARTIN! WHAT 18 TO BECOME OF LAMARTINE f (From the London Sun, July 10.) A strange spectacle is visible at this moment in Paris spectacle not only strange, but inexprersibl touch- ing. The: man in that capital of frivolity and revolutions, who has,within the compass of a few weeks, | experienced all the perils and vicissitudes of states- mansbip. Yesterday he was revered almost to idola- try; to-day he is shunned as if the t er the sound of his voice were coutamination—yester- day he was the glory of the republic; to-day he is its jietim. Who is this man? He is the poet whose soul intoxicated with the beauty of freedom, and from ose lips eame those words of eloquence which only a a day or two back thrilled through the heart of Chris- tendom. Every citizenin France felt the sincerity this man’s enthusiasm—it was attested, indeed, by the purity. istency, and the dignity of a whole inst this man—* under Whose nos- trile,” to use an expression Jately uttered by the Se- maine, “ she had recently burned the last grain of her incense’’—it is against this man that tbe slanders of particsin the republic are now direeted, as by a species of ipfainous unanimity. It is upon hishead that | ‘the jealousivs of ell—legitimists,communicts Bonapart- | ists, Orleanirta, Bourbonists, the vavriers, the bourgeoisie, and the aristocrats—are being poured | out today like ashes It is against him that the | ebloquies of the Parisians are being thrown un- stintingly, 28 if to afford to future historians ® new and unparallelied example of the muta- bility of political fortunes, of the vicissitudes of popu- larity, and of the fickleness of the people. But there | are doubtless reasons for this sudden change in the epinions of French citizens. Oh, yes! there are rea- sons. When it was taid, after the first insurrection, that Lamartine had conspired with the insurgents of the 16\h of May. Lamartine himself answered that ac- | eusation, from the tribune of the National Assembly. He raid—everybody remembers {t—" Yes! I have eon- | ixed with there men—-I have conspired with them as | e lightning-conduetor conspires with the thunder dloud | The metaphor was splendid, aud has been | verified by events. The lightning conductor of the revolution, otherwise the fame cf Lamartine, hes been meited, warped, literally blasted, by carrying off the terrible electricity of the conspiracies, ‘To ehield France from peril, the poet statesman called down up- his own head the lightenings of terrorism, Latmar- tine has recurea the ralvation of the repabiie; but only by the secritice of his immense and m: larity. As has been nobly said already of man, by one peaking from the opposite the channel— M. do Lamartine was not actuated tion—he was a patriot to the extent of se ce—he consented, with his eyrs open, to puly. me. in order that he might preserve the Nation- enbly.” That is the explanation of this other- nexplicable problem; that is the solution to the xecutive commission, that is the clue which ean alone guide our reason through the lebyrinth of these extraordinary and be- nees. Hitherto there have been only whirpers and inuendocs in depreciation of Lamartine’s aracter—and in aliusion to these same whispers and s himself written thus to the Consti- 1 is no wnewer—thore is only a cry of indignation, which rises from the bottom of my soul, whieh | pray you simply to register.” Ultimately the truth will be revealed; but meanwhile, to Alphonse de Lamartine himeeif, in the midst of his undeserved desolation, we ean fancy that that mournful verse must sometimes reeur which he wrote in the garden of Geth- remane, on the death of bis young daughter: — “Je fue des is mamelle un homms ie douleur, Mon cour, an liew de sang, ne rowle que des Jarnues, Gu plucot, de ces pleury Liew s’a ravi bess charnes Na petritic loe larines dans mon ccour; Ls 1, la tristerve wire enigma of the downfall of th M.

The realities of war offered no allurementa to the troa- Dlesome gentry who, it was hoped, might flock to the cene of strife like flies round ® Honey-pot ; end the sympathising amateurs who had straggled northwards from Berlin and Cologne, finding nothing to be got but hard knocks and short commons, straggled back again, to serve the cause of freedom by bullying the autnori- ties at home, to nurse their martial euthusiasm on metsphysics and beer. The people of the duchies showed themrelves ‘cold, backward, and indifferent ;— Lavenburg refused point blank to arm against her sove- reign, Brunswick n to lag, and Mecklenburg to falter The vigorous attitude assumed by the Northern courts gave a new complexion to the prospects of the war. Countenanced by Russia, and actively supported by Sweden, Denmark might yet held her own against any force which Prussia and the re ee States could, with safety to them: elve: nto the field,— Negotiations were known to be in progress, and there seemed to be every probability that the good offices of Great Britain might be employed with success, and that the beiligerents might be induced to consent toa compromise consistent with the honor of the one, and not flagrantly incompatible with the just rights of the other. In rpite of probubilities, however, and in spite alo of reason, justice and conimon sense, the flame is still alight. During the latter Leg of the last week, and solate as Saturday morning. the advices which reached ‘usted us to believe that the pen had been thrown away and the sword resumed, and that an immediate renew- al of hostilities was in contewplation. Prussia con- tinued to pour additional troops into Schleswig, whilst the Danes on their side were rot less active in prepari to defend their positions on the coast, and a body ‘of Swedes. six thousand strong, remained quartered in the isle of Funen. It even appears that on the 25th ult. the invading army resumed the offensive by a ge- neral "uovement in advance. Later intelligence, how- ever, showed that affairs had taken a new turn, and we had on Saturday afternoon the pleasure of learning that a 1ruce for three months had been actually concluded. ‘The terme provide for the complete evacuation of Schleswig, the withdrawal of the Swedish auxiliari the raising of the blockade, and tho restitution of th captured rhipping now awaiting condemnation by the Danish prize-courts. We sincerely trust that hostili- ties, once suspended, may never be resumed, and that no further difticulties will be allowed to retard the per- manent restoration of that first of blessings, peac We do not think it worth while to enter into the di pute, whether, in the correspondence which has hither- to passed between the contending parties and their arbitrator, the Government of Prussia or that of Den- mark has been most conspicuous for its pacific disposi- tion, and which of the two is most to blame for the prolopgation of the war. In such a case it is of course sor each party to find fault with the other, and enlarge vpon his own peaceable and accommodating temper. But Prussia has the advantage of being represented this country by a distinguished person, who displa; as much zeal and ability in making out a case for her to the public, as in transacting her business with the government to which he is accredited, and who kind- jy emerges, every now and then, from ways of diplomacy, to give us, from ‘the hot version of what is going on within, From a statement published by M. Bunsen, it appears that the represen- tations of the two governments were laid before Lord Palmerston on the 18th May—that his lordsuip, with characteristic dispatch, gave judgment on the following day. setting ‘aside both the propositions tendered to him, and’ substituting one of his own, which proved tatisfactory to Prussia, but was rejected by Denmark—and that the latter, when applied to-on a subsequent occasion, con- tented herself with repeating her original pro- porais. We sgree with M. Bunsen, that the ‘adoption of such a course on the the part of Deamark indicates, if not a great confidence in her chances of success, at least a firm reliance on the justice of hor cause; but we can as little concur in the inference which he draws fiom it, as approve of the gratuitous taunt which, towards the close of his letter, he has thought proper te throw out against the Swedish na- tion. Whether the Danish government was right or wrong in declining to aceede to Lord Palmerston’s of the suggestions themselves, if they were fair aad just, it was wrong to reject them; if the contrary, we cannot ray that they ought to have been accepted, Morcover. when called upon to admire the moderation shown ty Prussia in closing with a proposal with the import of which we are not acquainted, we canact lose sight of the difference between the relative posi- tion of the parties; the one an invader, the other standing on her defence; the latter unjustfiably assail- ed, the former persisting in an armed interference be- tween a foreign prince and his suujecta,on a pretext as flimsy as ever marked @ greedy’ and unwat- rantalle aggression. The question at issue between the King of Denmark and his subjects in Schleswig stands, as we have before observed, on an entirely dif- ferent footing. We do not undertake the advocacy of the Danish Government against the reclamations, in some respects well founded, of the German inhab:- tants of the duchy; we are far from justifying in every particular the course which has been pursued towards them, and we should regard with little sutisfaction the re-establishment of the authority of Denmark ow? Schleswig. if unaccompanied by an adequate guaran- ty for the protection of the local privileges and liber- ties of the latter against the arbitrary veileiiés of tho party now paramount at Copenhagen, What we con- demn is the attempt which bas been made by Prussia, and defended by her minister in England, to fasten uyon Sebleswig as German soil, on the shallow prc- tence that Holstein (which is German, whilst Sehler- wig is not) ia entitled to remain sasoelated with the latter, though neither having nor claiming any right of property over her—the endeavor to brand both duchies as German property, and to oust the sovereign rights of the King of Deniuark by tying up both into the fagot which the Germans are using their utmost force co compress into a golid block. Italy. The Piedmentese Gazette of the 7th announees po- sitively that the fusion of Venice with Piedmont was publicly proclaimed in Venice on the 3) by the Elee- tive Astembly. The Austrians were still blockading the town. The Costitutionale Subalpino, of Turin, of the 7th, has advices from Bologna of the 1st, coufirming the report of the passuge of the Adige at Ponton by the Piedimontese. It also appears that the Duke of Savoy attacked the Austrians in the plain of the Focacoe, between the Julian and Rhactian Alps; but there is no offigial news of the encounter. "There are 10,000 Austrians at Verona, 12,000 at Vicenza, 4000 at Man- tua, 2000 at Legnago, aud garrisons at ‘Treviso, Rovi- go,and Padua. Advices from Venice announce that public opinion there was generally in favor of the nexation to Piedmont. The dvenire d'Iteiia of Milan of the 6th, announces from Peschiera (30th ult) that Charles’ Albert has changed his plan of operations, and given up the idea of uttucking Verona. His present plan appears to be, to leave body of 25.000 men to defend the line of the Mincio. while the main body would pass the Po at Bor- goforte, traverse @ part of the Modene: again at Brescello or Ferrara, and deliver provinces from the presence of the Austi there operations Verona would be blocka: present inaction is relieved now and then by skit- mir hes with the advanced posts, Oa the Ist inst, the Duke cf Genoa repulsed the Austrians at Bivoli.

Tue Buocxane oy Trivstx —Admiral Albini had stated, in answer to the protest of the German con- suls, that he would r coynise Trieste as belonging to | the Germanic Confederation when the Austrian flag should have been replaced by the Germanic fing. and that until Le should receive further orders from King Charles Albert, the blockade will be continued, Hungary. We learn from Pesth, 27th ultimo, that on the 23d ultimo, 700 insurgents presented themselves before the town of Weisekerchen, in Hungary, and summoned , to surrender, which he did, although he had a company of the line vith — and could have called out 1200 National Guards, R ° A letter from St. Petersburg, of the Ist, gives the fol- lowing xeport of the cholera im tbat city :—In the morning of the 20th ult, there existed 1.029 cases; in the courrw of the same day 719 new cases were de- clared, ‘Tho number of cures was 41, and the number cf deaths 356.

Our réaders have been made aware that a simulta. neous teary in favor of the Conde de Montemolin has taken place in various parts of the northern and east- ern provinces, and we learn that one of the royalist leaders, the brave and faithful General Alzaa, having been betrayed into the hands of the Christinos, was instantly shot. It is our wish, in this early stage of the movement, to put this. melancholy fact om record, as evidence that may be important hereafter, to show that with the ns of Donna Isabella hes origi- nated s system of barbarian warfare. The royalists, the contrary, took precaution to prevent the tion of a prac! P pri on ox the feelings of universal Christendom, Cabrera, on setting up the royal standar ope declared in his proclamation that mercy should in cases be extended to prisoners. Withi’ few hours after this declaration, General Alzaa was taken and murdered, Thero can be no difticuity in anticipating the plea of the Christinosin justification of their atroci- ty. They will allege that the General was a rebel, an that to him, therefore, the rules of ordinary warfare could not apply. But the allegation is utterly false. ‘The war now begun in Spain is not an insurrection of rebelsagainst their lawful sovereign. It is acontest be- tween the adherents of two rival cleimants%o the throne—@ legitimate war of succession. On the on side is Donna Isabella. the queen de facto; on the other Don Carlos Luis, the king de jure. And no offi- cer, acting as General Alzaa did, under the royal a1 thority, can be treated as a rebel without a mani! violation of one ef the best established provisions of national law. The military execution 1s, therefore, not only grossly unjust; it ix, for the vory perpetrators of the crime eemealyte, fatally impolitic. The feel- n nature render it obviously impossible that the Carlists can see their chiefs murdered with- out being led to retaliate. The good intentions of General Cabrera will be defeated; his acknowledged influence over his troops will be of no avail, and thus shall we be doomed to witness a war ad internecionem raging in the centre of civilized Europe. No one will more deeply regret this unhappy circumstance than ‘we; and we thus early call attention to the fact, in the hope that, by exposing, we may assist in checking it, But, if our hope be doomed to disappointment, justice requires that we should thus place on record the evi- dence that fixes the commencement of the barbarous system on the partizans of the usurping dynasty. ‘The Madrid journals of the 6th inst., are again des- titute of news. ‘The Heraldo rails at Lord Palmerston for, as it says, fomenting and encouraging the new Montemelontet insurrection, In a letter from its correspondent at London, the same journal gravely assures its readers thet ali the ladies have declared againet Sir H. Bulwer, and that as they drink tea and eat bread and butter, they constantly exclaim— for shame! How improper! Did you ever!” One of t! journats, supposed to be under the influence of the Queen-Mother, strongly urges the Queen not to go to La Granja, thinking that the Montemolinist movement makes the journey dangerous. The Clamor Publico says that the position of the Bank of San Fernando is deplorable, but still that it will probably not end in bankruptey, A’ sum, amounting to 192,000,000 reals, in three, four, and five per cent stock, has, it says, disappeared. The Fomento, of Barcelona, of the 2d, gives a detail of the proceedings of Cabrera, after the eflair of the 28th ult., from which it appears that he had made many marehes and countermarches to avoid the Queen’s troops, but had been attacked near the Guillenas, and at the latest dates was being pursued.

The boat left the wharf just afier dinuer, having on board James Stephenson, who acted as skipper, Wm. J. Smith, wile and three children, and fourchiidren of John Whyley. The boot was capsized near little Hog Island, ina squall, Stephenson swam to the ledge. Smith was taken from the tast of the boat, to which he was clinging, being unable to swim. Smith is an Englishman, and haus not now a rela- tive on this ride of the Atlantic.

More News from Europe According to appearances, we shall soon have a daily mail from Europe. The Hiberma arrived last Friday night; the United States early yester- day morning; and if the Europa is as fast a sieamer as the United States,she 1s now fully due at Boston. We may expect to hear of her arrival at that port at any moment. She was to have left Liverpool on the 15th inst. The French Repub! The mtelugence received from France by the steamship United States, which vessel arrived at this port yesterday, is of much the same character as that which we received by the British steamer, aday or two since. Everything was quiet—order had been restored, confidence had returned, com- merce was reviving, and the congols have improv- ed in price. Much discussion was going on at Paris in rela- tion to the new constitution. A portion of the National Assembly appear to be in favor of divid- ing the legislature into two branches, similar to the Senate and House of Representatives of the Uni- ted States; but whether they ultimately settle down upon two or one, is amatter, we think, of little importance. The National Assembly have appropriated a sum cf money to the Moniteur, for reporting and publishing their proceedings. This, we think, isa good measure, and will be attended with good results. It isa similar undertaking to that of the Senate of the United States, which bedy, as our readers are no doubt aware, contracts for the reporting and publication of all its debates. They have made another movement, however which we find ourselves compelled to condemn, and that 1s, making an appropriation for the relief of the theatres of the metropolis. This, in our opinion, was not only injudicious, in view of the causes which led to the recent insurrection, but radically wrong and injurious 1m principle. If the theatres are not able to support themselves irom their receipts, why not leave them to get on as well as they could? If there are too many of them let some of them be closed. If ten could not live, let five of them be closed by the proprietors; and if those five could not live; let the number be reduced totwo. The difficulty would cure itself in a short time, without requiring any tinkering or doctering by the State. We praised the” government for abolishing the workshops on precisely the same principle on which we condemn it for giving re- lief to the theatres and places of amusement, viz.: that government has nothing todo, of nght, with such matters, one way or the other. The regula- tion of the clubs of Paris isa measure seemingly high-handed, and would not be tolerated in the United States for a moment. Here a man can | join as many clubs as he pleases, and plot all the | mischief against the government he pleases, with- out subjecting himself to government interference, unless he commits some overt act that would par- take of treason; but we do not know but that un- det the circumstances in which the new govera- ment of France 1s placed, thet this movement is justifiable. The news by this arrival from France 18 of a character to make us long for more, and we may have it in our power to give another edition of it to-day, or at farthest to-morrow, in ax extra He- raid, onthe arrival of the Europa steamship. Democratic Mrerinas.—We give, in another port of to-day’s paper, a report of a Cass and Butler meeting last evening at Vauxhall Garden. We would like to know why it is, that at every meet- ing of this kind which has taken place, for a num- ber of years past, the same orators as those who appeared last evening, have invanably been the speakers. Messrs. ©’Conor, Cutting, Brady, McKeon, Morris, and Shepherd have, over and over, given us all the views which they ever pos- sessed on public affairs, and are pumped perfectly dry. Why, therefore, can we not have some new hands at the bellows—some new ideas—and not repetitions of the worn-out arguments and decla- mations which have been delivered to repletion so often’? Variety isthe spice of polities, as well as of anything else. Give us new orators in merey— some new hands at the political bellows! Axorner Lerren yrom Mr. Van Buren.—We give in this day’s paper, a letter written hy Mar- tin Van Buren, to the Executive Committee of the Industrial Congrees, recently held in Philadelphia. It is an acceptance of the nomination made by the Utica Convention, and as such is of some interest to the politicians. Distrxeuisuep Arriva 1s New Yorx.—Among the passengers of the steamer United States, we observed the name of Major Poussin, ambassador of France to Washington, who comes here to take the situation lately eceupied by M. Pageot. M. Poussin is accompanied by his lady and his son, and M. Marie, son to Marie, member of the late provisional government of France, who is with him in the capacity of Secretary of Legation. In company with these distinguished passengers is M, Outrage, éivé- consul, artaché to the consulate of France in New York. ‘Tne Croton Warer.—The health of the city at this season of the year involves the interests of every member in the community, and the condi- tion of the streets and gutters demands the especial attention of the proper officers. The Croton wa- ter, of which we have so abundant a supply, 18 used with a niggard economy that is by no means necessary; and the consequence may prove in- jurious to the publie health, unless proper atten- tion 1s paid to the matter. The dirt and filth de- posited in the gutters in Greenwich, Chatham, and sm many of the principal thoroughfares of the city, should at once be removed by the speedy and liberal opplication of the Croton water. We trast that the Street Inspectors will immediately attend to thie matter, ag it would be of inculenloble ser vice dunng Jue sultry weather. Ocean Sream NavigaTion—ARRivaL OF THE Srxamsuip Unrrep States.—The noble steamship United States, Captain Hackstaff, arnved at the port early yesterday morning, after a very quick passage across the Atlantic. American ocean steam navigation being in its infancy, it 18 worth our while to give an account of this passage, and ¢’ mpare it with the trips of the celebrated Cunard steamers, to see how we stand. The United States sailed from Havre at half-past 7 o’clock in the evening of the 12th inst.; she crossedthe ocean against eight days of constant head winds and sea; she had but a single meridian observation; and yet was boarded by the news steamer News Boy at fifteen minutes past 5 o’clock on the morning of the 25th inst., thus giving hera passage of twelve days, eleven hours and forty-five minutes. It isto be borne in mind that this pas- sage was made between Havre and New ¥ork. ‘The quickest passage ever made between Liver- pool and New York was performed in May, 1813, by the Great Western, in’twelve days and eighteen hours. This time, it is to be seen, has been beaten by the United States six hours and fifteen minutes; but as Havre is one day’s sail further trom New York than Liverpool is, the United States has made the shorter passage, by thirty hours and fifteen minutes, than any other‘on record, and forty- two hours quicker than any of the Cunard steamers, including even that of the famous America to this city. The steamer America performed her secend trip (from Liverpoo] to Boston,) in June last, in 10 days and 10 hours, during which time, we are informed by more than one of her passengers, the elements favored her in every respect; the surface of the sea, from the time she left Liverpool until she reached Halifax, was as smooth as a mill-pond, and not enough wind to air her cabins. The United States made her last passage from Havre to this city in 12 days 11 hours, encountering for more than half of this time thick weather, with a heavy head sea; and, on reaching the Banks, it became necessary to feel her way to port by soundings, by which she lost full half a mile each time the lead was cast. Under these circumstances, the Ame- rica’s famous trip beat (the United States but 13} hours, which is more than overbalanced in the de- tention caused the United States by the weather while on her course and on the coast. For the purpose of placing the movements of these two splendid steamships before the public in their proper light, we give a table, showing the time and circumstances under which their shortest trips were performed, compared with that of the Great Western. Anatysis or THE Suort Passaces. te Weather. June, 1648—10 ds 10 h.—smooth sea all the way, United 4S—10 “* 2344—ounstant head winds. Great Westery., .May, 1813-11“ 18 —weather not recollected, This comparative statement 1s made by redu- cing the distances between the different points to that between Liveroool and Boston. The result shown by this table is, that, all things considered, the American steamship United States has made the quickest passage westward, across the Atlantic, on record. This steamer has not yet had a fair trial ; the elements have been against her every voyage, and there is not the slightest doubt but that the Umited States and the Hermann ean beat anything in the shape of ocean steamers afloat, with the same wind and weather. The last voyage out of the Hermann, and the last voyage home of the United States, prove them superior ships for speed, and the tes- timony of those who have crossed in them prove them superior in comfort and accommodations to any others. If we have been so successful in the construction, equipment, and management of the second and third American ocean steamers, what can be expected of our ship builders, our engi- neers, our commanders and owners, when they have had the experience of those of Great Britain? We are yet in our infancy in this branch of steam navigation, while they are in their full strength and manhood. They have apparently arrived at perfection in their models and machinefy ; but in less than ten years Brother Jonathan will show John Bull that he has not only a vast deal to learn, but must make rapid strides to overtake his more youthful rival upon the ocean. Steamers. America City Intelligence. Tus Vouuxzerns at Fort Hamitton.—Much has Decn gaid about the appearance and condition of the returned volunteerss, now encamped at Fort Hamil- ton. They have been described as being ins most pitinble state, without the necessary comforts of life. All that bas been said amounts to but s faint picture of the reality. Young men, who, but a short time ago, threw down the comforts of home, and shouldered the musket at their country’s call, fresh and buoyant with hope, and the pride of aged parents, and who defend- edthe standard of freedom at the point of the lance, in many a hard fought battl@ have returned. But what is their condition now? As patriotic hearts as ever throbbed pulsate still within their war worn and weather-beaten forms; but they have lost that manly bearing which they once possessed. The elasticity of the tread is nolonger there. Exposure to the seorch- ing rays of a tropical sun, and slumbering at night upon theearth, with the heavy dews faling upon them, has, for rome time to come, rendered them unfit for the ordinary vocations of life; and they are brought again to thelr homes,objects of pity and commiseration. Strolling through the encampment, oneis struck with the general similarity of tneir appearance. A few may be found who have through friends obt something which has the bare appearance of comfort; but even with those there is @ look of ction. Many of them are wandering through the camp without the necessary. clothing to cover them; while others are filthy and in rage, and fed upon the coarsest food About neon yesterday, they were busily engaged in preparing their meal of potatoes, onions and salt pork, and each grasped with avidity that fare as the daintest morsel. They are to be received by the city authori- ties to-morrow, when all will have an opportunity of beholding from three to six hundred of the most mise- rable locking creatures ever beheld by mortal eye They are generally clad ina dirty flannel shirt, som: red and rome that were white, with an apology fu talconaand jacket of the volunteer uniform. From the landin; era Crus to the capture of the city of Mexico, th n were ever foremost in the nght; but d by the magnanimous and phitanthro- pie government, whore request they obeyed in de- fending ite stars and stripes, they are to be poid the fpaltry eum of $7 per month, for three ing to each mana éum of $21, with which gain on the tide of life—not sufficient to purchase an ordinary suit of clothes. It is a foul stain upon the country’s page, and one which will speak to her ehame whi:e the nation exists. Now that the ser- vices are rendered, they may become paupers aud fill the alms-houses—the country no longer needs their services. It isto be hoped that the citizens of New York will do that which it ia the dzty of the government to perform, and render aid to these valiant men, sons of this empire city, and who were the empice regiment in every engegement in which they participated, Scmethipg must bo done to aid them, and surely New York, whieh bas ¢o amply provided for tho unfortunate on former cecasions, wili not now turn a deaf ear to the wants of the soldier. ‘They have suffered and are suffering privations almest equal to thore saffered in ‘the days of the revolution, ‘ibe survivors of that con- flict ree-ived pensions; but these do not, nor will aot, ‘They must now look’ to their own support, witnout even the means to muke a start upon.

CONTINUATION OF THE DEBATE ON THE TRRRITORY BILL The discussion “seems to have acquired an increa momentum since the terrific speech of Mr. Corw] yesterday. It began again to-day, at half-past ele d'eloek. Mr. Unpenwoon led off, in stating his agency in deliberations of the Select Committee, “He hed f proposed the Missouri compromise, and next tH the territories should have jarisdiction over slaver that California and New Mexico should have a Le lative branch, elected by the people; and that 4 governor and judges should constitute the other bran of the government, From the vature of thes that would be the best plan to initiate them into principles of self-government.

Mr. Foote next took the floor, laying outa foundation, extending to Greece and Rome. He h many objections to the bill, especially because of absence of protection to the South. He objected the doctrine of Mr, Calhoun, of the g ty of Congress over the territories, He bore do with all his strength, upon Mr. Corwin, for his infl matory speech yesterday, and his unpatriotic sp onthe Mexican war. Itwas with pain and deep eq row he saw the desecration of the lofty genius of Senator from Ohio; and aid he, I shall, perhepe, eu port the bill, objectionable as t find it, bycause it end to give peace to the Union. Mr. Westcorr contended that the powers of Co grees were limited over the territories, and denied t contingency by which the Supreme Court could made the arbitrator, Undisputed points were nothi new. The Supreme Court always was the arbi on constitutional disputes. He would vote for th having reference to Oregon, but he had not made his mind as to the other portion of the bill. No wo scheme could be devised; but as the Senators fq Ohio and Connecticut were opposed to the bill—a he knew they could not be right—he was inclined vote for it, Mr. Jonsson next took the floor, and offered amendment to the 2th section, to wit: That ine brought before the Supreme Court for the recovery slaves, the value should not be taken into consider tion, "Mr, Johnson next moved to amend the 26 nection, 80 as that the withholding from the territo governments of Califorvia and New Mexico the to legislate on the subject of slavery, the same ah extended to Africans, in order to enable them to on the suppression of slavery.

After some converaation— ‘Mr, Berrien moved to adjourn, (No, no, n0; on, go on”) Mr. Crayon appealed that it was due the Senatd with the understanding that the debate should to-morrow. Mr. Haxxrcan suggested to-morrow afternoon, 80 toset out the bill. Mr. Bavcen said he could not assent to this arrang ent. Adjourned at half past 7 o'clock.
