The greatest anxiety is manifested to hear from Freland, Italy, and Northern Germany. Our office is constantly besieged with those awaiting the ar- rival of the steamer, for later and more decisive advices. ‘Is the steamer in?” ‘ Any news from Ireland?” “Is the blow struck 1” are the questions hourly putto us. All the Trish in the eity are in a perfect turmoil of anxiety and ex. ment. If agun be fired, ora roek blasted, within | heanng distance of the city, in rush the people ; | « Whet’s the news 7” “ When will the Extra be ready 7” “Where's O’Brien ?” &c., &e ,&c. All | this is quite natural, and to be expected, for affairs in those countries, at the last accounts, were ina very critical state—the fate of England depending upon the result of the rebellion in Ireland, and the | peace of Europe hanging on the events in Italy and Schleswig-Holstein. If the patriots succeed in Ireland, whnt 1s England to do? If Russia, Norway and Sweden join Denmark against Ger- many, whatare the French, Germans and Italians todo? Will they not have to unite against the Northern powers? It 1s plainly to be seen, from all this, that the coming news from Europe 1s likely to be of the highest importance. We may expect it to-day. important Political Movement, We give in our columns, to-day, a long article from the Charleston Mercury. which 1s recognized as the organ of the Hon. John C Calhoun, on the subject of the Presidential election, from which at will be perceived that the democracy of that State, after mature deliberation, have come | to the conclusion to support the nominces of | the Baltimore convention at the next Presi- | dential election. The ground on which they | have repudiated Generel Taylor, is, principal- y, the so-called Signal letter, in which it is | contended he has commited himeelf either m | favor of the Wilmot proviso, or not to arrest it by veto, if passed by Congress. We also give the | report of the proceedings of a meeting held in Charleston on the 19th inst., at which Messrs. Cal- houn, Butler, &c., addressed the people. The whigs, and other friends of Gen. Taylor asa | candidate for the Presidency, are now beginning | to realize the truth of what we have often stated, | namely, that the ensuing Presidential election will be warmly and vigorously contested; notwith- standing the first appearances of an easy victory for Taylor over Cass. Since the result of the August elections has been known, and the nominations of Van Buren and Adams were made at Buffalo, it is not to be disguised that Cass and Butler stock has risen ma- terially in the political market. Hence we see the estimates of the democratic party put forth in the Washington Union, which we have given in | the Herald, claiming the election of Cass and But- | Jer as sure and inevitable. Addto this, we have now the manifesto of Mr. Calhoun and his friends with regard to the passage of the Oregon bill, and denouncing both Northern whigs and democrats for their course in that affair ; and the declaration of Mr. Calhoun’s organ, the Charleston Mercury, in favor of Cass and Butler, in preference to Tay- Jor and Fillmore. It 1s evident that, as an offset to the movements of Mr. Van Buren and the free soil party atthe North, a great effort is to be made to unite the South on Cass and Butler. Hence it becomes necessary, an order to obtain acorrect view of the political canvase, to look at the comparative strength of the North and South in the electoral coll They are as follows: Evectonat Votes, 16 Free States 169 26 Slave State: + 12 | Total ....--seeeee se= 290 | The free States, 1t will be seen, have a ma- jority of 48 votes in the electoral colleges, and of | these 58 were given to Clay in 1844. Polk re- ceived 106, and eight are to be given by Iowa and | Wisconsin, new States. Of the votes of the | slave States, 47 were given to Clay, 64 to Polk, | and seven are the votes of Florida and Texas, new States. The free soil, or Van Buren, electoral ticket, will, it is known, injure Cass in the State of New York, so as to give the 36 electoral votes to Tay- lor. We think that Cass will also be injured in the same way ix Pennsylvania, Michigan, Illineis, Towa, and Wisconsin ; while the whigs will pro- bably euffer some from the free soil movement in Ohio and Connecticut; but whether enough to change the political chareeter of those States re- mains to be seen, It is difficult to say which ean: didate will receive most injury from the free goi' | movement in New Jersey and Indiana. With re- | gard tothe other free States, we consider Maine and New Hampshire certain for Cass, and Massa- chusetts, Vermont, and Rhode Island equally so for Taylor, notwithstanding the free soil move- ment. We should not be surprised if the result of the election should turn eventually on the Staves of Ohio and Pennsylvania, if we concede Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Florida, Tennessee, and Kentucky, among the slave States, to Taylor, as those States voted for Clay in 1814. With regard to Pennsylvania, the Philadelphia Bulletin, copying our statements of the effect of the free soil movement in the northern or New England counties of that State, sayg: ‘ Carbon and Luzerme are not inhabited bya Nor England work on Pennsylvania; and 1t a to be borne in miod that Mr. T. has been one of the State geologists, 1s among the best informed on this sub- ject, in the State. Luzerne county was partially | tant to the fashionable world as the other 1s to the settled by Connecticut people, and Carbon is a new county adjoining Luzerne. The difference is, however, not matenul. Emieration.—The tide of emigration continues to flow as rapidly as ever. Every part of the Old World is contributing its quota to swell the cur- rent; and if the unsettled state of affairs in Europe continue for some time longer, there 18 no doubt bat the population of this country is destined to receive still larger accessions. According to our ship news report, over eighteen hundred emigrants arrived at this port trom Europe between sun-rise and noon yesterday, and during the afternoon nine hundred and fifty more came in, making the number of arrivals from Europe, two thousand seven hundred and fifty, They are hale and hearty, having experienced no sickness while on the passage. The greater por- tion of these people are from Great Britain. Since the first day of 1848 the number of immi- grants arrived at this port from abroad, was 110,- 404. In the eight previous months, or from the 5th of May to the 81st December, the number was 129,082, being 239,486 in the last fifteen months. It appears that from May to December, 1847, there were 53,180 German, and 52,496 natives of Ireland; but from December to August, 1848, the number from Ireland bas exceeded by some thousands that from Germany. The war between Denmark and Germany has doubtless operated to preven; these numbers from running en pari passu, but it is expected that as soon as there 1s free egress from the German ports, the same ratio will continue, if thenumbers be not larger on the side of Germany. The number arrived in July, 1848, was 24,622, of which 7,963 were from Germany ; 11,740 from Ireland ; 2,235 England ; 1,566 Scotland; 106 France; 34 Holland ; 129 Switzerland ; 68 Spain; 114 Wales ; 493 Norway; 85 Sweden ; 91 West Indies; 1 Denmark ; 3 South America; 1 Poland. The emigration during last month from England and Scotland, has been greater, we believe, than at any previous.corresponding period. There is room enough, however, for all that choose to come, if they only make up their minds not to remain in the sea ports, but to push back to the West, and earnestly apply themselves to honest in- dustry. Difficulties*may, no doubt, beset their progress until they are properly settled; but, if they can summon up courage to struggle with them as they arise, success will follow, and they will very soon attain a position of competence, 1 not of independence. The boundless resources of this great country are such as to enable us to give employment and subsistence to all the misgoverned and oppressed sons of Adam, if they only endeavor, when they come here, to get rid of the vices of slaves, and practice the virtues of freemen. Tue Srreets—Tue Con System.—In an article on the new contract system, the other day, for cleaning the streets, we pointed out the bene- fits that will probably arise from it, the principal of which were, clean streets and economy in the amount of expenditures. We now include another benefit, viz: the abolition of that villanous habit of throwing garbage 1n the thoroughfares, which has so long prevailed in this city, to the detriment of the health of our citizens, and annoyance to their olfactories, as well as in violation of corpo- ration ordinances enacted for the prevention of the nuisance. The contractors are determined te enforce the laws on this subject ; and to give no excuse for the continuance of the habit, they will employ carts that will be sent round the city every day, to remove garbage of all kinds, which, when collected, will be disposed of to proprietors of piggeries, and used as food for their stock. This admirable arrangement, if carried out in full, will improve the quality of the city pork, and put an end to the system of allowing-swine to parade the streets, and revel in the gutters, as they do at present. The more we look at the contract system, the better we like it. FasnionabLe INTELLIGENCE—MEerinG at New- ront.—We have received the following fashiona- ble intelligence from Newport, Rhode Island, We publish it in juxta position with the political intel- ligence from South Carolina. One is as impor. political. [From the Newport Herald.} At a meeting of gentlemen held at the Ocean House, Newport, R.

The Milwaukee Wisconsin, a democratic paper, of the 16th inst., has the following from the ad- joining State of Iowa :— The few returns indicate that the result in the Du- buque district for Congress is very doubtful. The | chances rather favor Davis, whig, over Lefiler. As to the Legislature, the returns are not sufficiently full to determine upon the final result. Both parties claim the Legislature, It is evidently close. porresses unusual interest, as two U. S. Senators are to be chosen, and intense efforts were made by both parties to obtain a majority in the Legislature. We have seen no definite returns from this Con- gressional district, although it has been conceded to the democrats. It 1s composed of 18 counties, and | last year voted as follows :— Leffler (democrat) « 5,159 McKnight (whig) . wes 4873 Democratic majority........ tee ee ese 286 Great efforts have been made by the whigs to carry this district, and we should not be surprised if itshould turn out that their candidate, Davis, is elected. If so, Iowa willsend two whigs to the next Congress. WISCONSIN. The Milwaukee Sentinel of the 18th inst., has returns from the second judical circuit, which, if correct, elect General Levi Hubbell (barnburner) judge of that circuit by 40 majonty. Gen. I. was formerly of Ithica in this state, and a leading whig in 1840. ARKANSAS ELECTION. We have received the Little Rock papers of the 10th and 1th inst., containing afew returns of the State election, which took place on Monday, the 7th. There was no opposition to Thomas S. Drew, the democratic candidate for Governor, who ia, of course, re-elected. For member of Congress, Robert W. Johnson was the democratic and Thomas W. Newton the whig candidate. In Pulaski and Saline counties, together, the votes stand, for Johnson (D.) 688, Newton (W.) 529. We have no doubt that John- son is re-elected, as these returns show no mate- rial change. . In Pulaski county, the whigs clected their whole ticket—a Senator, two Representatives, and the county officers, except Sheriff. Saline county elected a democratic Senator, one democratic and one whig Representative. Jefferson county, one democratic Representative ; Desha county, one democratic do. ; White county, one dem. ;’Con- way county, one dem. and one whig; Perry county, one whig; Pope county, two whigs; Prairie county, one dem, Representative. Total Representatives elected in nine counties, seven wage and six democrats, e have no means of comparing these few re- sults with the last election ; but, as we have said before, Arkansas is a reliable democratic State, and doubtless will be for Cass and Butler. i Arrica.—We have accounts from thee West coast of Africa to the 24th ult., brought by the bark Martin W. Brett, at this port. All was quiet upon the coast. A Brazilian slave echooner had been captured by a British vessel of war, and sent to Sierra Leon for adjudication.

It is, as yet, impossible togive an idea of what it will be, im consequemee og the present dirarrangement of every thing, as it row is in the hands of the workmen.

The enterprising proprietor, Mr. Hamb- lin, contemplates opening the Park on Monda; evening, the 4th proaimo, with a company equal, if net superior, to any that ever stepped upon the boards of the Park, in the days of its former glory, We shall take occasion to give an accurate description of the in- terior decorations before that time. Bowrxy Tueatxx.—The house was crowded in every part last evening, and presented » most ani- mated appearance. Thelower tier of boxes was filled with elegantly attired parties of ladies and gentlemen, and infact the audience was altogether a most brilliant one, The pleasant little farce of “Nipped in the Bud”? was first performed. Winans played the part of Galo- chard, the king’s gardener, most comically, and he and Mrs Phillips created lots of fun Winan’s song in the course of the piece was a very funny one, and was much applauded They get up such little farces as this most capitally at the Bowery, as indeed they do everything—farce, comedy, opera, tragedy, melo drama, ballet, pantomine, got up at this house. After th and Mr. Smith a dance, which the: nce which char opera of *C piece,and Miss Teylor performed her part as excel- lently as usual, Signora Cioccu’s daucing in the beautiful ballet of the ‘Magic Flute” concluded a very pleasant evening’s entertainment. The ballet has been quite # card for the Bowery during the past week, as every evening the house has been completely filled ; the rivalry which of course must exist when two favorite danseuscs appear on the same eveni: put both the ladies on their mettle, and the c uence bas been that they have both danced most ntly. To-night quite an interesting bill ia presented, as will be seen by referring to our list of amusements, “George Barnwell, or the London Apprentice,” will be layed for the first time in some years, we believe. It js @ most interesting and instructive play. Miss Tay- lor and the dancers will also appear during the evening. Broapway Tueatre.—This beautiful theatre has» during the present recess, been greatly improved. ‘The whole interior has been repainted and burnished, and now presents # more magnificent appearance than before, Extensive alterations have been made, which will greatly add to the comfort of the audience, and two large mirrors have been placed, one at each ex- tremity of the lower tier of boxes. The scenory is new, and most beautifully laid out and executed. The narrow entrance to the third tler, from Anthony street, has been removed, and an entrance six feet wide, from Broadway, constructed in its stead; and two spacious lobbies have been made in the tier, which now makes it competent to hold as many persons as all the other boxes and parquette together. The un- tiring proprietors, Messrs. Mann and Marshall, are determined that the Broadway sball possess a greater degree of popularity, if porsible, than during its late succersful season, and have spared neither puins nor expense to made it superior to any house in tLe city, It will re-open on Monday night, with the celebrated American tragedian, Edwin Forrest, in one of his favorite characters, and with a company of high stand- ing in the histrionic profession. With such a corps succers is certain, and there is no doubt but the im- mense building will be crowded nightly to witness the true representations of the ligitimate drama, which will then be prerented Go to the Broadway on Monday ht, ana every one will be satisfied that all the per- fections of the stage are there presented. Nimo’s, Astor Piacr.—Since the first opening of this splendid theatre, never has it presented such an array of beauty and fashion as on last evening. The house was jam full, from pit to dome, and several ladies and gentlemen, unable to obtain accommoda- tions, in the ordinary places allotted for the audience, were necessarily compelled to remain in the passages between the boxes—chairs being provided for them. “London Assurance” was the piece selected for the occasion, and the powerful and highly talented cast, including John Sefton, H. Placide, Vache, and Mrs, Maeder, could not fail to draw so full a house. The part of ‘Sir Harcourt Courtley, by Mr. H. Placide, was admirably austained. His personation of the anti- quated fop, was rich in the extreme, and elicited fre- quent bursts of applause, Max Harkaway, by Vache, was an excellent performance, and Mra, Maeder show. ed off the dashing, rollicking, fox-hunting qualities of Lady Gay Spanker, to full advantage—her acting being frequently and rapturously applauded. Alto: gether, the piece went off with entire eclat. It will be repeated this evening, and with the same powerful and Inghly talented cast. Our up-town fashionables seem fully determined to appreciate the high reputation en- joyed by this magnificent place of evening reereation, ‘and the prospects of a brilliant seacon ate traly en. couraging to the enterprising proprietor. A splendid French opera om Monday night. Bunron’s Tuxatne, CuaSinens street.—The per. formances at this theatre commenced last night with the popular drama of “Dombey and Son,” and from the crowded and fashionable audience which occupied every available corner in the building, one would think that this piece was a new candidate for popular favor, Every successive representation of it is more rapturously applauded than the preceding one, and attracts, if possible, a more crowded house. Captain Edward Cuttle, mariner, has done more to reconcile the parched citizens of New York tothe misery of their situation during these broiling nights of August, than all other causes combined. Mr. Brougham sustained his part with bis accustomed ability, Mr. Raymond, as Toots, overacted his part last night, and ou one or two occasions, followed up his inimitable personifica- tion of thgbashful lover, by too sudden a transition to confidence and self-possession. This gentleman has considerable merit in this character, but he must | not be too carelers; otherwise he will mar the favora- Vie impression he has lately made upon the public. | Miss Nickinson acquitted herself very indifferently; | and we incline to the belief that characters like Mrs. | Dembey, are not her forte. Mrs. Brougham, as Susan Nipper, displayed her usual self-posseasion, which not unfrequently makes up for the want of more sterling amalliies The “Revolt of the Sextons, or the Under. taker’s Dream,” concluded the performances, and was | Well received. | Nationa Tueatre.—Mr, Scott’s benefit, last even- ing, was very well attended indeed, and the perfor- mances went off with much success. Mr. Scott appear- | ed as Virginius, the Roman father, a part in which he | is very effective. Mr. Scott has made for himself a pro- minent name and reputation as a first-rate tragedian, and he deserves it, for he is a most excellentand judi- | cious performer, and an excellent elocutionist. In | parte such as Virginius he is especially good, and it is ‘well worth going a long way to hear him. ‘he part of Virginia was taken by a young lady, who in it made her first appearance on any stage. We should not ¢ eupposed that such were the case, had it not been £0 stated in the bills; for, with the exception of her not regulating her tone of voice so that it could be well heard throughout the house, she seemed perfectly at home and seif-possessed in her novel position, As re- garde regulating the tone of voice, that is a difficulty which we presume ull new hands have to go through, as it must require some practice to enable them to judge properly of tie tone they ought to use. She act- ‘ed the part of Virginia with much judgment, and her fine figure, and really handsome face, set off by her luxuriant black hair, made her appear to very great ad- vantage. Once «he has regulated her voice, and had a little more practical experience on the stage, she will do very well. The rest of the performances went off very well indeed; they consisted of farces fall of fan and wit, and Burke and the rest of the company kept the audience in first-rate humor until the close of the entertainments. To-night Mr. Scott will appear as Macbeth. This will be the last night of his performance here. The very laughable farce of the “ Illustrious Stranger’’ will also be played. Castix Ganven.—This evening the garden will be open as usual for promenade and music; and, to-mor- row,the regular Sunday evening concert will be given.

In resuming the command of ‘the Eastern Division, the Major-General takes much pleasure in tendering to tothe forces, both regularand volunteer,who have parti- clpated in the war and recently returned from Mexico, bys cordial congratulations on the unbroken succession ‘triumphs and brilliant results of their skill, constancy and courege, They have fully realised bis long cho- risbed convietis that while actuated by a fervent de- sire to co-operate with each other in proving to the world that n are qualified alike to govern and to defend their country, they cannot fail to prove them. selves to be what all the votaries of self-govermment should be— ‘“Inflexible in faith—invincible in arms,”” War, awful as it has proven itself to be in most of its aspects, has contributed much to the essential work of civilisation and free government; and when the sove- reign people of a nation are found freely mingling with their regular forces, and cordially uniting with themin deeds of daring and indomitable chivairy. war becomes a chief engine in the great work of civilisation. Hence it is that war will, itself, become measurably civilised, and be gradually stripped of its horrors until it s! disappear, by the vast discoveries and improvements in the arts, in the present century. War and slavery have each contributed much to the civilisation of man. ‘The undersigned bus long been a warrior, not because he loved war, but because he loved peace; and he has been a slavebolder for a similar reason. He bas beens slaveholder because he deemed it to be more humane and wise to feed and clothe the few children of Africa placed under his ‘e, and to force them to learn the arts of civilised life; to govern them while they were obviously incapable of self-gover: ment, than to kill them. Savages must be kept in bondage, or they must be forced to live in the wilderness, or be killed or im- prisoned. War and slavery will both disappear in the coming century, if the people of America do their duty. Regular troops of all past despotic governments have been taught to be always ready and willing to make war against any portion of the people who pay and feed them. An outrage so monstrous can nover cceur in this country, Here the regular troops and the pecple will ever be found, as in the late war with Mexico . fervently co-operating with each other against the common foe. So may it soun be in every other part of the world. We owe a debt of gratitude to our he- roic brethren in arms who have gloriously fallen in the honorable discharge of their duty; a debt of gratitude which we can in part pay by doing honor to their me- mory, by acts of care and kindness to their families and friends, and by increased devotion to our duties as eoldiers ard as men, EDMUND PENDLETON GAINES, Major-General U. S. Army Commanding. Movem mong the Poilticlans, Tue Crop or Canpipares.—In the fitth Con- gressional istrict, comprising the 8th, 9th, and d4th wards of this city, there are no less tha ten candidates already in the field, waiting for a no- mination. _ It matters but little who is sent, if the public business is as shamefully neglected by them as it has been by their predecessors. In order that our readers may know the names of these dit ent candidates, with their peculiar views on a pe- cular institution, we give them as follows:— William McMurray, Hunker. Dr. C. B Archer, Hunker. James T. Brady, Hunker. Daniel E. Sickels, Hunker. General Wallbridge, Hunker. Mike Walsh, Hunker, Dr. F. Hasbrouek. Barnburner and Hunker. James Campbell, Barnburner. Andrew Green, Barnburner, Dr. J. F. Gray, Barnburner. So the reader can see that the hunkers compose the largest number of applicants. If the w! 128 turn out equally as strong (and why not?) it will require a good deal of manceuvring to get the no- mination, As yet, the only one we have heard of, is Roderick Morrison, formerly a member of the Legislature. His residence is in the lth, as that appears to be the ward that is entitled to the representation. A Barnburner Convention forthe nomination of an electoral ticket, is to assemble at Ottawa, Illinois, during the present month. The Hon, R. A. Toombs has been unanimously nominated for re-election to Congress from Georgia, by the whigs of his district. Hon. William C. Rives has accepted the office of whig elector for the Albemarle district. in Virginia, to which he was originally appointed, but which he then felt himself constrained to decline from considera- tions of a private character.

The receipts thus far, this year, compare more favor- ably with those of 1846, than any year before or since. A comparison with last year is not fair, as the same influences are not at work to bring out supplies. Prices have not ruled much more than one half as high as during the same period in 1847; and there ie not the slightest speculative movement in a single article of breadstuffs.

DARCY, JOEL DUNN, DANIEL DODD, Jr. Newark, N. J., Aug. 24th, 1848, The annexed communication is in relation to a sub- ject of much importance, and the writer has Placed it ina proper light. There is no doubt but that great abuses are practised by the iron manufacturers of England, and that our railread companies have palmed upon thema quality of iron entirely unfit for the use to which it is appropriated. English rails are formed of three layers of iron, of three differe nt qualt- ties. The surface of the rail is made of pretty good’ iron, the middle of a poorer kind, and the under side of the poorest quality, As soon as the Upper crust wears off, the rail is nearly used up, for the next layer will stand no wear of consequence, and the trunk ro quires relaying. On the other hand, American raii- road iron is all through alike, and it will wear even from the top to the bottom. We have no doubt but that our manufacturers could turn out rails as good: as thore manufactured in Great Britain, and as cheap, but as they do not understand the science of cheating and fraud so thoroughly, they have been compelled to- abandon the business. The communication to which we refer, shows wherein the fraud oxists, Enauisn vs, American Rain on, 4 ‘The very low rate at which railroad, one into this country, can be sold, xeoms just now towxoite ble notice and speculation.
