They were loudls cheered as they left Clonmel; and on ar- riving at Thurles, great crowds of people ‘assembied to see and do them bonor. Having got into a special Thurles, they sterted for Dublin, where they arrived about a quarter past three o'clock, and were large crowd at the railway terminus; and as which they were placed drove out, the pri- foners received tremendous cheers, and were followed to Kilmainham, where they were lodged for that night.

Similar assignments were handed in on behalf Messrs. Mesgher, McManus and O’Donohue. The Court, at the request of the Attorney General. ordered the pri- toners to be brought up again this day, Saturday, November 18, when the Attorpey General will state what course he will adopt with these very troublesome and perplexing cases. On the motion of Mr. Whit- side, the prisoners were lodged in Richmond Bridewell, instead of Kilmainham prieon, where they are to re- main until their case is disposed of. In the matter of Martin against the Queen, in error, the Chief Juctice answered. that their lordships will give judgment this day.

The most important subject now await- ing legislative action, is decidedly that of the sla- very question in connection with our new territo_ nies. During the interval of political agitation tha: will exist between this time and the inauguration of President Taylor, Congress ought to legislate prac tically on those 1mportant measures which the wel- fare and interest of the country demand prompt action upon—measures which have no reference to polities or to the political ascendancy of one party over the other. We would like to see, especially,the abolition question in connection with our new territories settled, in order to prevent political agi- tators from making it a geographical or sectional Igsue between the North andthe South. Thatit can be eatistactorily settled, we have no doubt. It this thing be not disposed of, we hope that, at all events, other vital questions demanding a settle- ment will be acted upon—such as the postage re- form, which has been recommended by al] branches of the government, and by all parties. If it be possible, and we think it 1s, to reduce the postage to a uniform rate of three cents, 1t would be advisable to do so at the earliest practicable moment. as well as to eflect a reorganization of the whole system; for we think a reorganization 1s demanded. Some are in favor of having the postmasters throughout the country, elected; buy we think this would be going too fast, or to say the least, would be a questionable policy to pursue eg present. The ume will soon come, however, when it may be proper and judicious to carry it into ef- fect. Some modifications have been proposed in the financial system of the government, and also in the tariff. Alterations and amendments might with great propriety be adopted, we think, in both of these measures, and that, too, without compro- mising any political principle, or running into ex- tremes of ultraism on any side. The present tariff is a good working law, although it 18 opea to amendments, which we think might be judi- ciously inserted, without changing its main fea- tures. The present financial system of the govern" ment also works well; but this quality has arisen from singular circumstances. In fact, while we have ostensibly had a sub-treasury, we have in reality not had one ; for durmg the operation of the present system, the Secretary of the Treasury has had the power of using treasury notes as a currency. This should be a permanent feature of the financial system of the government ; and with this modification we have no doubt the present system would work satisfactorily. ‘Tue Presinent’s Mrssace.—This document has received a great deal of condemnation among the Journals here, although, with the exception of its clerical prolixity, the repetition which pervades it, as well as the recurring so often to the same ideas, jt seems te be agood, practical, and sound docu- ment.

They consisted of roast and boiled entrées, game, politics, preserves, and wine, in any quantity, all mixed up together. A candid account ot this important supper, and of the parties present, will be found under the head of our Albany correspondence. The character of this political feast resembles in some degree that of the famous dinner given at the Irving House, in this city; and the same leading epirits appear to have been at the head of both. Mr. Fillmore, Vice President elect, Mr. Collier and ethers, including Governor Young, gave“a tone to the matter. Thurlow Weed and ex-Governor Seward and their friends, forming as they do, another branch of the Taylor party, ap- pear to have been either excluded or uninvited. From this and other symptoms, it 1s very evident that there will be a great contest among the Tay- lor republicans of this State, in the approaching election of a United States Senator. Thurlow Weed and ex-Governor Seward do not belong to the clique of the Vice President elect; but Thur- low and his party are hard to beat in the game of politics. This contest will soon begin to be in, teresting; for on that event the future distribution of the spoils, and the current of political opinion, will much depend. We have no reason to like Thurlow Weed or his coterie. He is without doubt the greatest political knave of the day; but he 1s a political knave of so much address, remarkable skill, and superlative humbug, that he commands a certain degree of respect and curious admira. tion, just such as might be extended to Satan him- self, dressed up as a modern politician, and enter- ing into a political contest for a Senator. There will undoubtedly be a strong contest between the two coteries—the Fillmore and Collier clique, and the Weed and Seward clique. As matters now stand, Thurlow has probably the greatest strength, of a historical kind, inthe West; and hence thene- cessity of Collier and his men taking off their coats, rolling up their shirt sleeves, and working, | eating, and talking, as if their salvation depended on the length of the bills of fare they present. We shall watch all these movements, and report fairly between these two sets of combatants. Give the devil his due. Tue Cuorzra.—From all we can learn, we are disposed to believe that the accounts concerning the chglera are much exaggerated, and that it is a matter of doubt whether the real genuine cholera asphyxia has developed itself on Staten Island ornot. We are inclined to believe that the dis- ease which has prevailed there for some duys past, is nothing but a virulent cholera morbus, which, on acéount of the state of the atmosphere, has been unusually fatal. All reports from there must be re. ceived with great caution; because it 1s the interest of the landownersithere, to magnify every thing relating to the approach or existence of disease, in order that they may succeed in carrying out their views about having the quarantine establishment removed from Staten Island. They imagine that if that institution were removed from Staten Island, their property would increase very much in value; and hence their desire to create alarm about sick- nees, at this particular time. They endeavored to play the same game last summer, when a few cases of yellow fever occurred there. Notwithstanding this, however, our corporate authorities owe it to themselves, as public officers, to take care that they do not extend an invitation to the cholera to visit our city, by allowing the étreets to remain as dirty as they now are. There 1g a ressponsibility, a heavy one, resting on them at this particular juncture, and the public will ex- pect them to discherge 1t honestly and promptly. Tue Orrra —The Opera audiences, after the recent émeute, are settling down into their tormer condition, and are, as usual, thin, calm, quiet, fa- shionable, and well dressed, the treasury being, as it was formerly, and as itis usually, poverty strick- en. The only time, in fact, when the Opera paid, was during the row between the manager and Be- nedetti. Indeed, the only way in which it can be made to give a remunerative return, would be to kick up an émeute similar to the one which re- cently occurred there, at least once a week, or to revive the old one. A fight every week in the green reom, between the manager and an artist, and a speech or two in the school-boy fashion, be- fore the audience, would help very much to fill the house, and ultimately the treasury. Loss or tHE Suir Bureunpy anp THE Bark Atiantic.—Accounts of the entire loss of the ship Burgundy, of Norfolk, Virginia, and of the Bremen bark Atlantic, came to us in brief over the telegraphic wires, and were published under the shipping head yesterday, since which the tol- lowing particulars have been received by mail from one of the English papers:— With considerable regret we announce two deplora- die rhipwrecks of German emigrant vessels, with be- tween SCO and 400 parrengers on board, which took Jace in the course of just night, Nov. 14, on North “oreland, and on the 15th on the Long and Goodwin Sands. The unfortunate vessels were both from Bre- men: one the American ship Burgundy, Hunt, mas- ter, 500 tone burthen, with $00 emigrants for New Or- leans; the other, the bark Atlantic, Foster, belonging to Bremen, bound to New York, also with passengers (the number not exactly known.) It appears that, between ten and eleven last night, the report of signal gune of distress was heard in the direction of the Long Sands. Several smacks, as well as her Majesty's revenue cutter Desmond, bore down in the direction, to arcertain the cause. On nearing the centre bank of the sands in question, a large vessel was discovered completely on the shoal, almost engulphed in heavy breakers, She proved to be the Burgundy, having, it is reported, been carried om by the rapidity of the cur- rents about ten o'clock. It was impracticable to get her off, and her destruction seemed inevitable. ‘The crews of (he surrounding vessels, on ascertaining the number of human beings on board, lost no ti , Was traly d of them, says our informant, being red | ofcomplete destitution.

Ninety-nine of the passengers belonging to the Burgundy were taken into Harwich on the 15th, and 160 were landed safely at Ramsgate. The mate, two cf the crew, and four females, were taken on board of a French vessel, and carried, no doubt, to the coast of France. The Burguady was, for many years, one of Meeeis.

THE CHOLERA AT QUARANTINE —ITS REPORTED APPEARS anon in THE CITY. The following report was yesterday received by His Honor, the Mayor, relative to the cholera at Quaran- tine: Qu. To His Honor, Tue Mavoi Since my report of yesterday, six cases of cholera have occurred at the Marine Hospital, four of which were inmates of the hospital previous to the arrival of the ship New York, Four have died since my last report. Respeotfully, ALEX. B. WHITING, Health Officer. This report most plainly shows that this direful and alarming epidemic is rapidly increasing, Within the past two days there have been ten new cases, and eight deaths, the discase having assumed a more malig, nant form than thore cases which first appeared. ‘There is now, perhaps, some cause for alarm to think that the cholera is at quarantine, and the city was never in a wore favorable condition for its destroying breath. The Board of Health was in session during the whole of yesterday, but what means they devised, or what conclusion they came to, it isimporsible to say; they having refused to make any disclosure of their proceedings, It was eaid, however, that they were en- deavoring to pracure the public school house, im William street, with a view to convert it into an hos- pital, should necessity require such a step. There was also something raid about making a general search through the city, and require all persons living in damp bacements and cellars, to remove at onc® to the upper part of the city, and if @ sufficicroy of houses could net be obtained for their accom- modation, to proceed, forthwith, to buila temporary houses for them until the plague should subdue or disappear. The object of providing a suitable place for the hospital, is certainly a well conceived plan, and should, by all means, be adopted; and the idea last referred to, of providing places in a healthy Jocation for those who are now living in such places as only tend toinvite the epidemic, and sow it broadcast through tke city, is one, doubtless, which will meet the bearty approbation of every citizen. That such movements will be attended with great pecuniary ocat there is not a dovbt, but what is expense, compared with the bealth of the city? Every measure which can should be taken to prevent its course, and no rearonable man would withhold his support from and acquiescence in any measure tending to that much de- sired object. Already has one case appeared in the city; which proved fatal. The patient was one who had been discharged from quarantine, where he had been sick, but not from cholera. He came to the city a few days since, and stopped at a house in Washington street, On Tuesday he was attacked with cholera, and immediately removed to Staten Island, where he died on Wednerday morning. There have been seva- ral cases among those at Staten Island, who did not arrive in the packet ship New York, but who were brought in contact with those who did, It is the general opinion of eminent men of this country, as well as of Europe, that the cholera is not a contagion; but certainly the fact of persons be- ing suddenly taken, by being in the same room with patients, looks very like it, and such cases have almost invariably provedfatal. There have now been. in total twenty-five cares, fourteen of which proved fatal; and it was thought, yesterday afternoon, that several of the new cases would, in all probability, prove fatal, from the violence with which the patients were attacked. Few of the patients last attacked have lived more than eight hours, after the first eymptoms were apparent’ ‘The Board of Health will probably report as soon as they have completed their arrangements, which, it is expected, will contain all the sanatory measures which can porsibly be adopted.

The great supper {given this evening, by the Vice President elect, Millard Fillmore, to the St electors. State officers, and whig State Committee, has eaused a great commotion in the whig ranks in this city. Thurlow Weed is not here. He lacked one important thing, an invitation. Mr. Fillmore adopted a very good rule to enub Weed & Co. He sald that, to avold hard feeling, (so that Weed & Co. might not feel ngarleved,) he would not invite any of hia friends; therefore would rerve all alike, and no one could t offence:—a very quiet way to put Weed aside. On this importanttoccation, (so great is the anxiety to get a view at the dining room.) the halls, parlors, rmoking room. and every avenue ia filled with Teylor and Fillmore republican whigs, each ome with cap in hand, greatly disappointed in not being able to get a seat st the eupper table, which is decked out in the most gorgeous style ever beheld in this city. The table fairly groans under its sumptuous dishes of every dercription. which our worthy hosts, Messrs. Siezon & Coburn, know how to get up.

Deep meditation seemed to prevail with the whole company; but recollect it is all on coffee and cold water—very emblematical with this section of the party at present time. Several speeches were ma: ni or two Taylor fongs were sung. Among the speakers were Mr. more, Governor Young, then his Mr. Fillmore is doing all wing of the party, and is now Comptroller of the State, and is soon to Jeave toftake the important ste- tion of Vice President of the United States, he may well imagine that his influence will be such that he can prevent ex-Governor Seward from meeting him face to face in the United States Senate, at Washington, where Governor Seward might, perchance, scquire a greater reputation, as « statesman, than himeelt. Therefore, the barbacve, this evening, was got up without the pre- sence of Weed & Co., or his friends, Tor the purpose of strengthening the Vice President elect. The breach he wider every day—the political sky looks threatenin: d the navigators on either side are preparing for the storm, and try toman and trim ship, 0 as to sail clear of the breakers; but before the fourth day of Merch next, the Seward ship, with Capt. Weed on board, will be sailing in the breakers, which may prove destructive to allon board, unless Commodore Z. Taylor, President elect, should by chance go to their relief, and bring them into port and} provide the officers with comfortable quarters, But the Vice President elect will do all in his power to prevent it, and we are informed by some of his best friends, that {t will be impossible for Weed & Co. to ever gain favor with General Taylor.
