ANumber of Private Letters of Louis Philippe, Queen Adelaide and the EX-ROYAL FAMILY OF FRANCE, We have received, by the recent arrivals from France, a series of original autographic letters of the late Royal Family of France, comprising, also, letters from his absent ministers—letters which have never yet seen the light 1m either hemisphere, and which make startling disclosures of the prac- tices and principles ef the late up-torm monarchy of France. There letters were taken from the Tuilleries by an officer of the National Guards, who entered the private cabinet of the late King about ten minutes after his ex-Majesty and the Queen had emerged from the opposite door, in their flight to England. Ina day or two we shall commence their publi- cation in French and English, after translations into the latter language can have been prepared. These letters make strange revelations, which will produce much astonishment in France and Europe. One of our agents in Paris has procured them, at a vast expense, for publication 1 the co- lumns of the New York Herald. General Taylor next President——His Ad ministration. The revolution is complete ; Zachary Taylor is elected President of the United States for four years, from the fourth of March next, by a larger popular vote than any candidate has ever received, since the organization of the government, with the exception of Gen. Washington and James Monroe. We continue publishirg the details of the struggle, as fast as theytare received by tele- graph or mail ; but the general result 1s beyond question, and cannot be changed by them. It is almost equally certain that a House of Represen- tatives, possessing views on our foreign and do- mestic policy ermilar to those entertained by Gen. Taylor, has also been elected by a large majority of the popular vote. The present House of Representat:ves 1s nearly balanced between the two parties, but the next one will have a large nominal majority of whig members, who have been elected on the same ticket with Gen. Taylor, The Senate, however, will continue to be of an opposite political complexion for a year or two longer The revelution thus efiected by the people of the United States is as great, as astounding, as remark- able, a8 characteristic, as any politieal revolution 1n any part of the world. It has been, however, a peaceable, quiet revolution, accomplished by the ballot-box, and presents a moral spectacie to the people of Europe that will excite their astonish- ment, and provoke their rivalry. It is, indeed, a wonderful revolution; but the great victory which has been achieved doce not belong to, nor can it be claimed by, any organized party in particular. Gen. Taylor, who has thus been triamphantly elected to the first office in the republic, and the most honorable on earth, was not the candidate of any perty. He was tne candidate of the great mass of free and independent people throughout the confederacy; he was supported by these masees, elected by these masses; and whatis called the whig party, merely adopted him, at a late day, for the purpose ef reaching power and acquiring emolument, onder the prestige connected with his name, Notwithstending their having adopted lum mn this manner, ifthe wl aders and journal- iste throvehout the country, have a sufficiency of sense, eagacity, and moderation, to make them unite with Gen. Taylor in the views and policy of hie administretion, we would not be at all sur- prised to see them maintain contro! of the govern. ment for the next quarter ot @ century. Atall events, General Taylor possesses the elements of moral, political, aod personal character, in such a degree, as to give this country a popular and suc- ceveful administration, in spite of the opposition of any discontents or any backslidera, among those who have united with the rest of the conntry, in placing him in the position which he will soon reach. \t will not do for the whigs to bring tor- ward in Congress any of those ultra measures by which they broke down the administration that came into power with the election of General Har- neon, in 1840. If any euch attempts be made, there will be materials enough in Congress, and in the country, to rally to the eupport of the new President, and support him in the maintenance of all euch moderate, enlightened, and generous mea- sures, ae we have no donbt he will introduce into his administration. In fact, the President e) will go into power in « shape and form resembling more those which characterised the induction into office of ¢ a] Washington, than of his prede- ceascrs of eny party r the second time since the Presidency of the elder Adana, at the close of Washington's udimunistrat on, representatives from the same Stetes, end the same geograplucal divi- sot country, which formed the federal party, ior but recently the whigs, have come into under the mantle of Rough and Ready. The elec. tion of Gen. Harrison was accomplished in a like manner, and by similar geographical interests and party traditions; but the unwise conduct of Mr. Clay, and other members of Congress, disorganized dmuinistration, and prostrated the power which devolved on John Tyler by the death of General Harrison, , We repeat, this 1s a great revolution, and if the whig party avail themselves of the popularity which has attended the selection of Gen. Taylor, they may retain the ‘power of the governinent for twenty or thirty years to come ; but such a resu't can only be accomplished by the choice. ot wise and discreet men for cabinet officers, and for the principal offices of state, as well'as by the shaping- of liberal and comprehensive measures in retation to the foreign and domestic policy of the govern- ment. No ultra measures or. ultra men should be encouraged, nor will they probably be by the new President and his prudent friends; but that re~ forms, deep and radical retorms, should be intro- duced into the government at Washington, there can be no reasonable question. Such reforms ought to embrace, at least, some of the following points; and if full confidence can be placed in General Taylor’s letters, there is no doubt, judging from his uprightness of character, sterling honesty, and great and acknowledged integrity, he will ad- here to the pledges and promises which he made to the country at the commencement of the can- vass which has resulted in his triumphant election. In the first place, there should be no removals of eubordinate officers now in the service of the ge- neral government, for mere differences of opinion on political matters. All changes of this kind should be brought about in the natural way, viz:— by death or py resignation, unfitness for the duties of office, or by incapacity to perform them. Secondly, the several departments of the govern- ment should be reorganized. The State depart- ment should be divided into two—one to be called the foreign, and the other the home department. Asthe State department of the governmert now exists, its unwieldy and unmanageable. This is a measure ot reform which should be adopted by Congress at once, and carried into effect. Thirdly: A reform in the financial laws and fiscal arrangements of the government 1s loudly called for. It should embrace a modification of the tariff, so as to pay off as rapidly as possible the public debt. The re-enactment of the tariff of 1842, is not, however, needed by the interests of the country. That was a*piece of legislation carried out for the especial benefit of a few manu- facturers, who were not competent to manage their own affairs; and, therefore, called upon Con- gressto assist them to do so. That an attempt will be made to restore the schedule of duties passed by Congress in the year 1812, we have no doubt. Indeed, its restoration, even at this early period, and on the very day on which General Taylor was elected, has been already urged by one of the principal whig journals in Philadelphia—we allude to the Philadelphia North American, as will be seen by an article which appeared on that sub- ject in ats edition of yesterday, and which will be found m this day’s Herald at length. The treasury system should likewise be modi- fied, and a new treasury law passed, which wou'd create a permanent circulation of paper money guarantied by government, to the amount of twenty or thirty millions of dollars in the form of treasury notes. This would benefit the country, and relieve the government depositories of the ne_ cessity of hoarding up specie to any considerable amount; and thereby prevent pressurgs.ia the money market, and trouble im the foreign ex- changes. Fourthly: There should be a thorough reorgani- zation and reform in the War Department, espe- cially in reducing the expenses of the army, which to a great extent, has been rendered unnecessary by the treaty of peace with Mexico. Fifthly: The Naval Department should be tho- roughly re-modified; and an enlargement of our national marine, particularly in regard to steam vessels of war, 18 imperatively called for, in order to be prepared to meet, successfully, any contingencies that may arise out of the protracted Euroyean wars, which the revolutions in that part of the world now menace. Sixthly: A reduction in the postage rates, to a uniform charge of two or three cents for all dis- = tances. e Seventhly : The opening of negotiations for the recognition of the neutral rights of American ves- sels, and also the personal rights of seamen, both native and naturalized, in order to prevent, as far as possible, the recurrence of hostilities between this country and England, or any other European nation, as far, at least as this subject is concerned. Theee, and perhaps others, but less important measures of moderation and conciliation and wis- dom, should be adopted by the new admunistra- tion at the earliest practicable period; but if any violent or fanatical measures shonld be forced on Gen. Taylor by the whig members of Congrees, that may be carried into power with the rueh that has elevated him, there will be a foun- dation laid for reverses and changes in public opinion that may easily be avoided. No danger ot renewed hostility between this country and Mexico need be apprehended during the adminis- tration of Gen. Taylor. His name alone will keep that country quiet, and make it unnecessary for us to support a large military establishment. It is pro- bable that the negotiations for the acquisition of the island of Cuba will be abandoned or suspended by the new administration; and perhaps it would be as well and as politic for this republic to bide its time, and await the changes and contingencies that may grow out of the transitionary state of Europe, as te attempt to accelerate anevent which certainly will occur of its own accord at some proper period. These are some of the views which strike us in view of the present aspect of our public aflairs, and on the threshold of the revolution which has Just ewept the country. Of Gen. Taylor’s hon- esty, sagacity, integrity and ability to conduct the aflairs of this great republic, we never entertained a doubt. From our personal knowledge ot the man, acquired several years ago by daily inter- course with him for many weeks, we have long been satisfied that he will disappoint the wilest politicians and the greatest statesmen of the age, by an exhibition of his high, statesmanlike qualifications, which are abundantly sufficient to carry him through the Presidency with success and honor. The whig leaders and journalists have mere to dread, from their own want of wisdom and prudence, than Gen. Taylor, or the councils that may govern him, have. His name and cha- racter will command respect in Europe and throughout the civilized world; and we eno | hesitation of expressing a conviction, even at this early day, that his administration will be as sueceseful, as popular, as American, and as repub- can, as was that of General Washington himself; that he will be called again 1m 1852, to be a candi- date for re-clertion, and that hardly a fragment of opposition will be offered to his running for a second term of’ office. The recently agitated question of free soil, and sectional matters gener- ally have received their quietus and are demolished forever; and as to Mr. Van Buren and the whole of his party they may be considered as sent to utter oblivion for all future time Troors ror Ca RNIA—The steam bark Edith sailed, on Wednesday, for San Francisco, with a portion of the regiment stationed on Gov- ernor’s Island. The auxiliary steamship Massa- chusetts is now at anchor off the Island, receiving 4 detachment, and will leave in a few days for the same place, The ship Iowa, also under Govern- ment orders, left om Wednesday for California; and the Silvie de Grasse, formerly a Havre packet, will take the remainder, Tue Maoneric Txtxoxaru.—The importance and advantage of this extraordinary agent for the tranemission of intelligence, from point to point, ‘was never before #0 completely developed as on Tuesday night. The fables of eastern magic, of flying horses and omnipotent genii, who could transport people from Ispahan to Cairo in one night, are all thrown into the shade by the discov- eriesof a quiet Yankee, who has found a method of harnessing the lightning and anticipating the flight of Time himself. Some idea may be formed of the extraordinary works accomplished by the magnetic telegraph, from the fact that, before twelve o’clock on Tuesday night, we had returns of the election that had taken place during the day from fourteen States of this Union Before we had received complete returns from this city, we had by telegraph, returns from nine other States. The returns of the St. Louis elec.ion were received here about one hour past midnight, by way of Chicago, aftef travelling a distance equal to that across the Atlantic, and had the line not broken down south of Fayetteville, and between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, we should have had returns in yesterday morning’s Herald from the whole United States. The energy, promptitude, and perseverance of the operators‘on the various lines, cannot be too highly praised. The arrangements, as will have been seen by the returns we gave yesterday, were made with a fidelity and exactitude that secured an accuracy actually astonishing, when theexcite- ment of the occasion, the immense quantity of business, and the numberless interruptions to which the telegraph is lable, are taken into ac- count. Asit was, we were enabled, before the closing of the day of election, to tell who was the succeesful candidate. Such are the gratifying results of this wonderful discovery. Tur New Frencn Envoy to Tas Unitep Srates.—The new Envoy Extraordinary and Mi- | nister Plempotenuary of the French Republic, and the first envoy thet our sister republic has sent to our shores, M. Poussin, was presented to the officers and members of the Historical So- ciety, at their rooms, in the University, on Tues- dey evening last, and made an excelient speech on the occasion, which will be found in another part of this day’s paper. This speech is replete | with republicanism of the right stamp, as well as | with philosophy, ard gives evidence of deep and sound thought. M. Poussin paid a handsome compliment to the United States and our institu | tions, with which he is well acquainted, having resided among us for a number of years, and served in the engineer corps of our army. He is a gentleman and a scholar in every sense, and will be cordially welcomed to the United States by his many friends. His appointment as Envoy Extraordinary will draw still closer the cords that bind together in friendship and amity, the two | great republics of the world. New Cuannet or Commerce witn New Max- 1co AND Cairornia.—Indian Point is the name of atown and settlement which has lately sprung up on Matagorda Bay in Texas. It promises to become a place of some consequence and great trade, and to be the successful rival of Galveston, over which place it 1s described as possessing many superior advantages. Indian Point will no doubt eventually become the great emporium of our commerce with New Mexico and Califorara. Hitherto, a great and highly lucrative trade has been carned on with Santa Fe and New Mexico by our merchants, established for this purpose at St. Louie, Mo. But when it is considered that Indian Point, situated as we have above de- scribed, on Matagorda Bay, and open to the sea, is distant only 500 miles from Chihuahua, whereas St. Lows is 3800 miles distant from the same | place, itis easy to perceive that St. Louis must soon give up the trade to the more favored station | of Indian Point. The land around Indian Point is deecribed as being rich and fertile, while the climate is represented as similar 1n beauty to that of Italy. One great advantage which this new set- tlement isgaid to possess, and which givesita deci- ded preference over Galveston and Corpus Christi, is the greater depth of water in Matagorda Bay. Steamers, brigs and schooners, can come up to the wharf at Indian Point, and anchor there with- out difficulty; whereas, at Corpus Christi, the wharf is quite inaccessible to vessels drawing over two feet of water. We believe it 1s almost as bad at Galveston, where the sand bars present great impediments to navigation. Indian Point is rapidly settling, chiefly with an industrious, active German population. We derive the above parti- culars chiefly from a German source, and have reason to hope that no speculating or interested motives have thrown exaggeration or falsehood inte the flattering picture drawn. But the settlement of this new city, and the en- terprise which has given birth to it, are equally shared by the Americans with the Germans, and our own highly favored city has not been slow in finding out this new channel of trade, and profit- ing by it. Among those merchants who have di- rected their bold enterprise to this point, we might mention as the most important, the name of the well known and respectable wholesale and retail house of Mr. Green, the clothier at the | corner of Pearl and Chatham streets, in this city. After supplying, and while still supplying, the cit. zens of New York, with all kinds of garments, of wonderful beauty, excellence, and cheapness, such as we believe are unsurpassed by any otherclothier house in New York, Mr. Green, the head of this establish ment, 1s extending his benevolence to the Texans and Mexicans, and supplying them with | clothes cheaper, and certainly better, than they have ever had them before. Such is the bold en" terprise of our New York merchants, Tue Steamer Evropa, Capt.

ONE WEEK LATER FROM EUROPE. IMPORTANT INTELLIGENCE FROM THE CONTINENT. AFFAIRS IN IREL MARKETS, he, ke. &t, The steamship America, Capt. Leitch, arrived last night about 12 o’clock, having made the p sage over the Atlantic in eleven days, and a few hours. The America has been absent from this port but twenty-eight days. Cotton has fallen an eighth of a penny. The corn market remains firm, at previous quo- tations The news from the Continent is highly impor- tant. From Ireland we have the intelligence that the patriots O’Brien, Meagher, McManus and O’Do- nohoe, have had their sentence of death commut- ed to that of transportation for life. The trivl of Charles Gavin Dufly, at the Com- mission, before Justice Torrens, had concluded, but the jury had not returned their verdict at last accounts. . The special commission—one of the most pro, tracted that, perhaps, wes ever held in Ireland— has at length been adjourned until the 5th Decem- ber, after occupyirg no less a period of time than twenty-three days. In answer to the Lord Chief Justice, to the usual formi] question as to what they had to say in objection to the sentence, Messrs. McManus and Meager replied in a strain of eloquence, that would compare well with that of Emmett. We shall find room for their remarks in our evening edition, together with the sentence of the Judge. We shall present our readers with fuller details and more copious extracts from the continental journals in our afternoon edition. The French Republic, In France the new cabinet of General Cavaignac has sustained a signal defeat on the question of military substitution. The 107th article of the constitution proposes to abolish substitution in the army, and to make every citizen lable to serve his country, without permitting him to purchase an exemption. The idea whence this article ema- nated was essentially{democratic, but the chamber | defeated the ministry by a majority of 523 votes, rejecting the abolition of substitution ia the army. ‘The discussion of the constitution was termin4- ted by the Assembly on Monday night, the 23d. Before itis finally proclaimed, it will have to un- | dergoa revision. This revision will take place | after an interval ot five days, and itis not expected to occupy more than a day or two. A proposition of the government for the proro- gation of the Assembly during the interval be-, tween the declaration of the constitution and the election of President, caused some excttement and discussion. M. Thiers moststrongly opposed the proposition, notwithstanding the assurance of Cavaignac that he would be responsible for the the maintenance of order in the absence of the Assembly. The proposition, if persisted in by the | minietry, Wouid, no doubt, be rejected. | On the 27th, the French Aesembly, by a vote of 687 to 232, fixed pee the 10th of December as the day on which the Presidential election should take AND, lace. s A great deal of surprise was manifested upon the decision of the Chamber that the election ot President should take place on the 10th of Decem- ber. It had been generally sup; osed that the elec- | tion would be postponed unl February. One | arty was in favor of establishing the orgauic fawal in reference to the respons'bility "ot minis- ters, the appointment and functions of judges, the elections, &c., previous to the election of Presi-+ dent; while another} would rather leave those subjects to be settled under the new government. The Ministers of the Interior and of Justice have addressed a circular to the Prefects and Pro- cureurs-Generaux, in reference to the democratic banquets. The banquets are not to be prohi- bited, but government functionaries are forbidden to attend them. . At the sitting of the Assembly on the 26th Prince Louis Napoleon ascended the tribune, and read from a paper in reply to the accusation brought against him in the previous suting by M. Clement | Thomas. [(M. Thomas had charged Prince Louis | with ae at the imperial di, nity.) He at once admitted that he was a candidate for the office of President of the Republic. He declared that it was hia right to be so, and he would not renounce | that right, whatever provocations were addressed | tohim. This declaration was listened to by the Aesembly, with chilling silence. M. Goudchaux has resigned the post of Minis ter of Finance, and M. Trouve Chauvel is ap- pointed in his stead. The resignation of M. Goudchaux is attributed to the difficulties of his position on account of the poverty of the treasury, rather than to any other cause. The tour of Lamartine in the provinces has been generally conceded as undertakenwith a view to his becoming a candidate for the Presidency. The ultra-democrats ot all shades are making a degperate effort to produce a unanimity among their partisans as to the candidateship for the pre- | sidency. The friends of M. Raspail are earnestly | solicited to support M. Ledru Rollin ‘The domestic news in the Paris jour: reat interest. There appears to be a in the organs of the moderate arty ‘ation: rong feeling against the pro- Assembly, under the dread of agitation id excitement if that body should separate. Some of the Paris papers seem to think, from the last ounts from the provinces, that japoleon, as President of the il, is not 60 certain as was at first supposed. In Normandy, rays one journal, the peasa: ‘are dis- wed in favor of General Cavaiguac, and another journal tells us that M. Berryer intends to becoms a | candidate for the Pret ney, in which care, although M, Berryer bas not the slightert chance of being eleat- ed, he will abstract anenormous number of votes in the departments of the South which would otherwise be given to Louis Napoleon ‘The declaration of M. Dufaurein the National As. eembly, that there is at present very little to be feared from the democratic and social banquets—there hav- by selling the tickets at reduced prices, although | 6,000 had been expeoted—has given great satistaciton | to the friends of order.
