Imprisonment of American Citizens In Ire. land— Once a Subject, always a Subject.” | We published in Fnday’s paper, a communi- | cation from Mr. James Bergen, of this city, who was arrested by the British government some time since, and confined in Newgate prison, in Dublio, on the supposition that he was an American sym- pathiser, and had visited Ireland for the purpose of assisting in overthrowing the union between that country and England. There was no proof that Mr. Bergen had done anything against the law ; he was arrested and detained on suspicion only, based on information communicated from this side | of the Atlantic, and now lies in Newgate, with a couple of armed soldiers to guard him. Mr. Bergen 1s, we believe, a native citizen of this country; but native or naturalized, it makes no difference to the Bnitieh government, for it acts towards both as if it could do so with impunity. It will be recollected that one of the questions at issue between the United States and Great | Britain, in the war of 1812, was that of “once a subject, always a subject.” This principle was contended for by England; and in pursuance o what she wes pleased to term a right, she boarded American ships, and took from them American citizens of Britieh nativity, and impressed them into her naval service to fight her battles. The nght ef searching our ships with this view, was the main cause of that war; and strange to say peace was concluded between the two countries without eettling it one way or the other. By intelligence from the other side of the water we learn that England has again attempted to exer- cise this “right,” and it remains to be seen whe- ther the United States government will allow it to be done with impunity. It appears that an American citizen went to Ireland lately, on private and pro- fessional! business; but the British authorities, sup- posing him to be a sympathiser, arrested and im- prisoned him under the act suspending the habeas corpus, in Newgaie, where he has remained for upwards of three months. It was not pretended that he was guilty of any act showing a desire to“eubvert our glorious constitution,” nor of “‘compassing or imagining the death of our belov- ed sovereign,” although his baggage was minute- ly examined by the creatures of the governmeat to find evidence that would fix such an intention onhim. Ruightly ¢ onceiving that under the cir- cumstances his arrest was uncalled for, unneces sary and despotic, and that his rights asan Ame. rican citizen were infringed upon, he laid his case before the American Consul in Dublin, and also before the American Minister 1a Londons but notwithstanding his paseport, certifying to his owe them protection an foreign countries 12 retura for their allegiance This question must be set- tled at once. It has been suspended too long, and now ie the time, when our passports are disre- garded, and insult and injury are inflected on our citizens, to settle it and dispose of it forever. If itbe not settled now, we may have cause to re- gretit. A war between this country and England may take place at srme future time; and, in the event of hostilities breaking out between the two nations, could it be expected, in view of these oc- currences, that citizens of British birth would take the field to eupport our flag? Of course it ceuld not; for the rules of war would not be appli- cable to them, as long as this principle, “once a sub- ject, always a subject,”’ is maintained by Eagland— notin theory alone, but in fact and in practice: If taken prisoners, they would be hanged as traitors —being, according to the pretensions of England, Bntish subjects, notwithstanding their oath of al- legiance to the United States. We respectfully call upon the government to take active measures to have all American citi- zeng now in confinement in Ireland, and against whom no crime can be maintained, as 1 the case with two now in Newgate—Mr. Ryan and Mr. Bergen—released, and to demand reparation for their injuries, and a renouncement, final and con- clustve on the part of England, of her right to any control, on the ground of Queen and subject, over naturalized citizens of the United States. Newsrarer Courtesy.— We have recently no- ticed in the columns of our cotemporaries, tables of figures relating to political, financial and com- mercial aflairs, copied from the Herald, without the slightest addition, alteration or improvement, without the most indirect allusion where they ori- ginated. We have for so many years experienced so much of this, that we have not thought it worth alluding to; but other journals are so sensitive upon this point that it might be well enough for us to allude to several recent instances, where tables which have cost us much money and labor, have been appropriated and passed off by other papers as their own. The Tribune and Truth Teller, of this city, have, within the past day or two, copied valuable tables from our columns, showing the debts, taxes, revenue and expendi- tures, population, &c., of each country in Europe —some of which were obtained by the proprietor of this paper while abroad, last year, with much difficulty—and no credit given. Very recently, a magazine in Philadelphia copied from, and cre- dited to, the Ledger of that city, a series of tables relative to the commerce of the country, obtained by one of our correspondents at the Treasury De- partment, in Wasi:ington, and originally published in the Herald. These are only the most recent cases. Papers from every part of the country fill their columns in the same way; and if any credit is given, some other paper in this city gets it. | Now it is our impression that the proprietors of the papers named above know nothing about the system practiced by some of their reporters in making up their reports. We do not believe that they have any idea that valuable tables, used to illustrate any important subject, have been taken, bedy and soul, from the columns of their cotempo- raries;and furthermore, it is our belief that inal! cases, proper credit will be given when they be- come better acquaint ed with the method resorted to by reporters who have not brains enough to make up a table or an original article, and not principle enough to say to whom they are indebted for aid and ideas. Tue Exercise or Tut Vero.—We publish, to- day, a very curious and interesting statement’of | the number of instances 1n which the veto power has been exercised since the organization of our government down to the Presidency of the present incumbent, James K. Polk. The particular mea” sures that were vetoed are also mentioned. It will be seen that General Jackson was the most liberal of our Presidents, in exercising this “one man power,” as it is called. Captain Tyler was the next, and James Madison was the next in order. ‘The question of interna! improvements, and that of a United States. Bank, were the most prominen; of the measures that have heen vetoed by our Pre- sideats. Mr. Madison vetoed two bills for those purposes. General Jackson vetoed two bills for those purposes. So did Captain Tyler; and Mr. Polk, the present Executive, vetoed one bill mak- ing appropriations for internal improvements. It would appear, therefore, that these two measures have been, for a long time, contested in this coun- try, and have been pertinaciously upheld, and as regularly rejected, by their promoters and opposers, for a long series of years down to the present time. It looks, too, as if they have never been decided, except by the veto, and may possibly again come up, although we do not believe that the project of forming a Bank of the United States will be again mooted—at least, for a long time. GrneraL TAYLOR AND THE Orrice BecGars.— Now that the election cf General Taylor to the Presidency of the UnitedjStates has been reduced toa certainty, we would not be at all surprised to hear of the numerous hordes of greedy office- seekers who have attached themselves, fungi- like, to the independent masses who ncminated and elected the old hero, running downin batches of twos, thiees, and dozens, to Baton Rouge, to press their claims for a portion of the spoils. We trust that General Taylor, in answer to their en- being an American citizen, and guaranteeing to him safe conduct wherever he went, all the satis- faction which could be obtained was, that he was arrested for being engaged 1n treasonable practices, under the 11:h and 12th Victoria, cap. 35; that his excellency the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland enter- tamed no doubt of his guilt ; and,as if to add in- sult to injury, the answer proceeded to say thay it was sh own to the satisfaction of the same Lord Lieutenant that the party arrested is a subject of her Majecty. Here, then, we have the broad fact before us, that two American citizens have been illegally arrested; that their passports, signed by the United States authorities, have been disregarded by a set of inéolent Bntish officials; and more than all, tha the principle which mainly led to the war of 1812 of “once a eubject, al ways a subject,” is now again contenced for by England. We think the govern- ment of the United States owes it to its own dig- nity and that of our common country, to take prompt and decisive steps to make a peremptory demand on the British government for the release of the American ceptives, Mr. Bergen and Mr. Ryan, who have thus been illegally arrested, and to demand and obtain, at any cost, reparation and apology for this daring insult. When we were a much more feeble nation than we are now, we declared war against that insolent and overbearing nation for acts of precisely the same nature; and if we are to subm't to this insult now, when we are the most powerful nation in existenc® —when England is actually depending on us for her national existence from day to day—what will the nations of Durope think of us? We owe its too, to the thousands and tens of thousands of naturalized citizens in our country, te take n+ mediate measures to establish the principle that will protect theit liberty and lives in foreign parts; that in return for their allegiance to the United States, which they have swom ina solermn manner, the United States wil! not tole- Yate with impunity, any infringement of their rights as American citizens by any nation in exis- tence. There is no use in debating this question anyJonger. Our naturalized citizens have ever shown their willingness to sacrifice their lives in defence of the United States They fought side by side, im the recent war, in every grade of rank, and the blood of naturalized citizens mixed freely with that of natives, in achieving the giortous vic- tories of Scott and Taylor. Their bones, as well as thore of natives, are now bleaching on the fielde of Mexico ; and does not the United States | treaties, will quietly take from his desk the pledges which he gave in regard to removals from office before his election. New York contains many cliques of this description of politicians; and men who have belonged to all political parties in their day, will rush on him, and swear by their beards that, without their support, he would not have been elected. We trust he will tura a deat ear to their entreaties. This will be an excellent plan to adopt, and it will give them and the rest of their class, to understand that he is determined to carry on the government in the independent manner which he chalked out in the event of his election, and which the people of the country at large expect him to adopt. The conduct of pre- vious administrations in respect to removals from office, has been a disgrace to the country, and has, we are confident, entailed a great dea! of injury on the public interests. It is full time that a reform in this particular were effected, and we much mistake General Taylor if he do not apply a corrective. Tux Next Conorrss.—It is probable we shall now have a whig Congress, but let not the whige mistake the matter, and imagine that Gen. ‘Taylor must be led and ruled by them on that ac- count. Why shall we have a whig Congress? Not because the people have reposed confidence in the whigs and elected them, but because whig names were attached to the Tylor ticket, and the nome and popularity of Gen. Taylor carsied into Congress all who were named on the same ticket with him. It any kind of decent men had been tied to Gen. Taylor's ticket they would have been carried triumphantly into Congress. It 18, there- fore, to be hoped the whigs will not deceive them- selves, and think of forcing obnoxious, antiquated issues upon the country. It willbe a Taylor Con- grees, nota whig one. Later From Brazit.—By the arrival of the brig Dracut, Captain Sinall, trom Rio Janerio, we have received files of the Correto Mercans1! of that y,to the 28th September. M. Guillemot, the first Charge d’ Affairs trom the French republic to the Brazilian government, arrived at it10 on the 25th September, in the French sloop-of-war Triom- phante. We do not find afsingle item of interest im these files. There is nothing-ater from La Plata, From Ha vANA—We “are in receipt of Giles of the Gaccta de ‘a Habana, (0 the Sth inst ; they contaia nothingof interest. Auyruia—Faance—Enotann.—Public history | PURTHER ELECTION RETURNS is most correctly written from public documents ; @ single manifesto, proclamation, or state paper, throws more light upon the events of history than whole pages of tedious argument, learned disquisition, and conjectural comment. What would not the historian give for the discovery of ecmme of the official public documents publiehed by the Lovg Pailiament, or the King’s ministers, during the civil war; or by Cromwell and the the Parliament, during the republic? One such document of half a dozen lines would be worth more than 81x octavo sheets of Hume or Smollett. We published in the Hera/d, the other day, an unportant public document of the above character, which elucidates and explaine the state of affairs in Austria better than any thing we have yet seen or read. It was the proclamation of the Em- peror of Austria, dated from the prison house ot Lafayette, addrested to the people of Vienna, from which city he is a fugitive. We are let, at once, into full light upon the state ot Austria, by this document. We learn that the Emperor of Austria has declared war againet his people and capital of Vienna—that, like Tarquin, banished from Rome by a similar popular outbreak, he is endeavoring, by threats, and the terror of arms and proscription, to force his way back again» intimidate the people of Vienna, and resume his tyrannic powers. We learn that Vienna is en- compaseed with armies, and that the Emperor will, if he can, and if, he dare, or if he is not pre- vented, either rule or rum; that is, he will bombard and destroy the city and people, im the same spirit, and with the same bloody results, as the King o Naples bombarded Messina, if they will not sub- mit to him. It must be confessed that the position of the popular party in Vienna 1s a dangerous one ; to all appearances they must succumb, and their rising infant liberties must be crushed, irretrievably, in the bud, unless aid should reach them from some quarter. In this situation of affairs, the French republic stands with its arms folded and beholds the triumph of tyranny in Naples, in Italy, in | Bader, in Austra, in Hungary, in Poland, in Prussia,—and bebolds democracy crushed under the fatal measures of Cavaignac, and by a policy the very same which Guizot followed—apparently the dictation ot Palmerston and the English cabinet. The French people will not submit to | this ; Cavaignac mus: yield and fall before the torrent of popular feeling, which, at length, he has roused against him. France will be obliged to assist in blowing and keeping alive the dying embers of the democratic fire, which she herself was the cause and the author of kindling in Europe. England cannot be permitted to smother hberty in Ireland by force and by fetters, and in Europe by art, intrigue and diplomacy, at the same instant of time. The spell, which has so long, hitherto, bound Cavaignac and the French, will soon be broken, and, Probably, our next ar- rivals will inform us that such, at length, 1s the fact. RatRoap Accipents—Tueie Prevention.—We | have repeatedly called the attention of the legis- latures of the various States to the neceasity of responsible for the lives and limbs of those whom- they undertake to convey. At no time during the last five years do we recollect such a number of frightful railroad accidents as have been lately re- corded. Their number, their frequency—the cold- blooded indiflerence with which they are passed over by the companies owning the various roads | upon which they occur, and the sad consequences | which accrue to the families of those deprived of life or limb—call loudly and imperatively for the adoption of some measures to arrest these terrible and shameful occurrences. Many days have not elapsed since we were obliged to notice a number of cases of this kind, and | again we are called upon to appeal to those having a remedy in their hands, to apply it at once. The latest calamity of the nature to which we refer, is one which,occurred on Thureday night last, on the Boston and Salem road, by which six human be- ings were killed, and many more danger- ously, if not mortally, injured. Now, the public should net be any longer humbugged by the stereotyped phrase, “ No blame attaches to the conductor.” On roads properly constructed and proyerly regulated, no accidents can occur. On the night in question, two extra trains ran in- toeach other. This was clearly the consequence of a niggardly spirit of economy. A dollar paid toa man, as night watch, would have prevented the calamity. What can be said ot a company that holds six human hives cheaper than a single dollar? If this 1s not murder, foul and unnatural, we know not what it is. Six human beings hurried to an untimely grave, because the com- pany will not hire a man, fora single dollar, to warn the trains. What remedy 1s there for this?’ We shall state it. Let a law be passed in the several States, making carelessness or inattention on the part of conductors felony, punishable by imprisonment fora term of years. In addition to this, let the law exact from the company owning the road a deodand for every life and limb lost, so enor- movs that it will produce, in the minds of those who will be thus mulcted, a salutary terror. ‘Corporations have no bodies to be kicked and no souls to be damned,” but they are, at least, vulnerable in their pockets, Thus, may railroad accidents be prevented. Tur Hex Danter, Wenster in Tur On Bay Stave.—We have already given the account of the remarkable eflect of Mr. Webster’s speches and operations in the Taylor cause, on his friends and neighbors in Marshfield, his residence in the | old Bay State; not very far from Plymouth Rock, we believe. The Albany Ailas (free soil paper) gives the fol- lowing hit at the great expounder of the constitu: | hon :— T coi oy aN X-rounpen.—Daniel Webs a great gun of the whig party— but so far or Poy ts learned, his recoil is more dangerous than fire.

The goods, it appeared, were lost out of the public etore, and the plaintiff, by his counsel, in. eisted that the subordinates of the Collector are bound to use due diligence in the safe keeping of goods entrusted to their care under the warehous- ing act, and that, in the event of any losses, he, the Collector, is reeponsible for the neghgence and want of care of his clerks. It would seem, however, that Judge Nelson has repudiated, in his enacting some law making railroad companies | charge, this doctrine, and laid it down as law, that Mr. Lawzvence is only liable where misfeas« ance or nenfeasance can be brought home to hitm- sell personally, but that he cannot, constructively, be held liable for his subordinates or agents; not- withstanding which, the jury tound a verdict for the plaintifl.

All the performors did well. On Monday night the town may be prepared for a great affair at the Park. Expectation is on tip- toe—the critics are getting their gold pens repointed. A new drama—a new Captain Cut & new * Dom- bey & Son”—a new Bunsby—a now’ Edith-a new Toots. It will be curious to cempare Walcot's drama- tisation, and ite cast, with what we have seen at the theatre where the best sn ppenters of the theatre are insulted. H. Placide to play Captain Cuttle: What acomparison after the masterly and talented perfor- mance of the same character at Chambers street ! ‘What collision of talent and genius!

Bowery Tuxatne.—The New Orleans Serenadere had a very fair house, last evening, for their benefit, though it was not so well filled as they deserved. They are most excellent singers, and the variety and novel- ty of their songs render their entertainments peou- Marly divegfing. Their imitations of the prominent Italian Opera singers, are most amusing, and admirably done. The drama of ‘‘ Life,” the farce ef “ Lola Mon- tes,” and the drama of the “ Di Bas- br. tile,” formed the rest of the bil Bowery is now doing a most handsome business, and from the appyan ance of the bill set forth for to morrow evening, we can with safety predict most amusing times for the ‘trons of this house next week.

The tragedy, taken all in all, is above jority, but by mo means a great production, The cast at the Broadway is@ good one; Mr. Dyott,as the Duke o¢ Buckingbam, is as usual well up in his part, with @ good, conception of his author, adi little: business of the character ‘which ie’ entrusted ¢e him.

She did it well, The piace itself will only bear praise with a qualification. The bill for the evening was made up, besides the ' of a“ Pas de Deux,” by Celeste and Weithoff, an over- ture by the orchestra,and, In eonolusion, the drama of ‘Don Cesar De Bazan.” Mr. Forrest will appear at the Broadway on Monday evening, as Richelieu, GNationat Turatns.—This house was crowded at an early hour, last evening, bya most enthusiastic audi The performances were for the benefit of Mr. Chanfrau, and were most amusing and varied The ‘Idiot Witness,” a most favorite melodrama, was the first plece— Chanfrau taking the part of the Idiot, Gilbert ; and he played it very admirably. His a1 transition i: last scene, from the imbecile, mop- ing idiot, to the sternavenger of guilt, was excellently played. The favorite, “Glance at New York,” wae the second piece, and Mose, in all his glory, was most enthusiastically received. T' @, the original of all the other local pieces, is welcome. We re- ret, however, that circumstances will prevent r ing again played at the National. Campbell's Mim: strels, and the rest of the entertainments, psesed off be great m well. During the coming week, there will times at the National. Mr. J. R.

Mr. Scott will appear to. morro ening as Rob Roy, in the drama of that name. Burton's Turatee.—Last evening this pleasing house of amusement was not quite 6o well filled as on former occasions, possibly in consequence of the stormy appearance of the weather. “ Anything for Change” was the first piece performed, and avery laughable burletta it is too. and exceedingly well Played. The second piece was called “ Counterfeit Presentments,”’ followed by the highly laughable farce called the “Mummy,” or the “Liquor of Life,” im which Mr. Burton takes Toby Tramp, © travell tragedian, and dresses like an Egypti which is truly very comical under the talented aotiag of Mr. B. The entertainments copcluded with ¢! pes hd ieee the es r se ae S Slice ich passed off wit! e general approbation of t! audience. On Monday night will Sr civen “ Dombey & Son,” and the Capture of Captain Cuttle ;" also, a w farce called the “Irish Engagement.” Surely, such a bill ittraction ought to fills house twice the size. All we say is, go early and procure a 00d sont.
