The speed of the latter is yet unknown, her first passage across the Atlantic having been made under ad- verse circumstances. She was then nineteen days in reaching this port. She will be due on Sunday or Monday. The Election of United States Senator, The election of a United States Senator to Con- gress,by the Legislature,now in session at Albany, is assuming a proper degree of importance. Here- tofore the papers throughout the State have only adverted to the matter incidentally, or in connec- tien with some epistolary disclosures which have developed the private movements of one of the prominent candidates, to secure, if possible» his return. As the day when the decision 1s to be made approaches, the importance of the matter increases. It has been touched upon on several occasions in our columns; but 1t was only the other day that two of the leading whig journals broached the subject for the first time. To the remarks first pub- lished by those journals on the subject, we have al- ready alluded. One of those papers, the Tribune, has quitted the subject for the present; but the other, the Courier and Enquirer, of this city, holds on to it with a firmer grasp than ever. Accordingly, we find in that journal of yest :rday, the following bref allusion to some previous remarks of ours in the matter:— Tue Exgction or Unitep States Senator.—The character of the recent movement in the Senate of this State, intended to prevent an election altogether, or to compel the popular branch to succumb to a few fac- tioniste, is made apparent by the following endorse- ment of the intended movement, by the Herald. If there are those who considered our remarks harsh, we are quite sure it is only nece: 'y for them to read the following, to be convinced t! it is a fortunate event for the whig party this desperate scheme of a faction has been defeated [From the Herald of yesterday | “Now, what is ali this outcryabout? What terrible calamity will befall the country, even if the whigsin the Senate form a coalition with some of the democratic members, and clect a Senator who will not be a mere Lurnet in the hands of the showman, to be moved by wires behind the curtain? The only result will be,that rome bungry ofiice-reekers. who have eagerly looked ferward tothe time when they could dip their hands into the flesh pote of Egypt. and satiate themselves to repletion. will be disappointed The country, never- thele:s, will be safe, and the constitution bs unimpaired. “We hope thet the iudependent members of the Senate, at Albapy, will disregard this impertinent dic- tation from the Wall street ollque, or any other faction of the whig party. We hope they will disregard all thore denunciations of the organs of office. begging cliques, and that they will maintain their rights and incependence. A Senstor returmed by a coalition of whige and democrats, would, wo have no doubt, attend as weil to the interests of the State, as one returned by & caucus ¢r:angement of the whigs.”’ The purpose in making this extract from the He- rald, or that of the remarks which accompany it, does not seem very clear. 1s that journal positive” ly 1m favor of, or positively opposed to, the mem bers cf the Legislature acting independently in the matter of electing a United States Senator? It expresses itse!f very confusedly—in such a man ner as we would attribute to a newspaper that wa3 controlled by different and conflicting interests - one that might sometimes be 1uvolved in obscurity and doubt as to what particular policy to adopt on cettain occasions. We will assume, however, that as the political department of the Courier, since its juneture with the old defunct American, has adopted the ultra opinions of that clique of former days, it may be considered as the perma- nent organ of those opmions which were prevalent ina certain party in this State about twenty-five years ago, and which have been revived by certain disappointed politicians within the last few years— we mean the z,itation of the slumbering anti- slavery question in the North, which has, within tat period, taken the shape uf the Wilmot provi- so, and other movements of that character. We consider the Courier and Enquirer, there- fore, asthe organ of that branch of the whig party which is now striving, 1 every possible way, to place in the Senate of the United States, ex-Gover- nor Seward—a statesman who has been identified with all the ultra and disturbing sentiments of the North, in relation to the South, that have been brought to the surface of politics during the last tew years. In this respect, Mr. Seward may be looked upon as the principal legatee of the senti- ments which prevailed in this State at the time whenthe late Rufus King represented New York in the United States Senate. The brief tn- umph which the ultra opinions he entertained achieved in 1838 and 1840, has been succeeded by a fresher and deeper awakenment, in consequence of the revolting course which ex- President Van Buren has also thought proper to take on the same subject, in revenge tor his defeat as a candidate for the presidency in 1840, and the loss of his nomina- tion by the Baltimore Convention, in May last, by the same party. When we look over the career of ex-Governor Seward, and those connected with him, in this State, examine the agitations which have been produced, the disturbing questions that he and they have raked up, we cannot help believ- ing—and we think every reasonable friend of the Union will believe the same way—that the elec- tion of such a man as ex-Governor Seward to th: United States Senate, by the Legislature of New York, would be one of the most unfortunate events for the peace and permanence of the Union tha possibly could take place at the present crisis int which the country has been thrown by the agita- tions and irreconcilable local movements of Mr Calhoun and his friends at the South, and Mr. Van Buren and his friends at the North. Ex-Go vernor Seward has been identified in New with all he most violent anti-stavery and fanatical | movements of the North, from the commen ment of his career to this day. Ile fanned and winnowed the inflammatory imaginations of our Irish population, until, with the aid of Bishop Hughes, he produced an excitement which ended in the burning and total destruction of several Ca- tholie churches in Philadelphia. He encouraged and set on foot all the troubles which have grown out of the anti-rent excitement in several districts and coun ies of this State—an excitement which | is not yet subsided, and which may produce disas- trous events before all is over. These are some of the characteristics which mark the career of ex-Gov. Seward as a politi- cian and statesman in New York; but although he might be forgotten as an agitator on the Irish ex- citement, or as an agitator on the anti-rent excite- ment, we, as a devoted and determined friend of the Union, cannot consent to stand by and see the agitator unearthed in Albany, brought to light from the depth of obseurity in which he was plac- ed, and put in a position in the United States Senate where his feelings, his purposes, his am- bition, end his recklessness, might aid and assist | in widening the breach,which 1s already too w ide, ork O- rieators of news, inventors respondence, venerable and national position was always main- tained by the old democrats, until the states- man of Kinderhook reached the presidency, and gave @ less national character to the party which he used for the brief time he was In power, Taylor, which was brought about, not by whigs alone, or by democrats alone, but by the sensible and patriotic men ot all parties, we hoped that the whig party, or at least that portion of it which sup- In the recent election of General ported that illustrious man, would assume the same patriotic ground which characterized the old democracy in the times of Jefierson and Madisen in relation to all those disturbing matters, with the view of maintaining this Union intact against fanatics of all descriptions. But if such a man— the originator of such factions as we have seen 1n this State—if such a man as ex-Governor Seward should be elected to the United States Senate, with all his ultraism around him, we do say, the friends of General Taylor in the Legislature will sacrifice all they have gained, and throw everything away, in order to gratify or mollify the spirit of disunion in the North, as well as the Sonth. As far as we can judge the course of the Courter and Enquirer in this senatorial question, we fear that those proper sentiments which we kn .w dis- tnguished Col. Webb, its senior editor, in former yeurs, have been entirely supplanted by those ultra, disturbing, bitter teelings, which characterized the age of Rufus King twenty-five years ago, and which have marked the disappointed of his imitators of the present day—we mean both ex-President Van Buren and ex-Governor Seward. All the friends ot the Union in New York, from Sandy Hook to Niegara Falls, who are acquainted with the his- tory of the politicians of this State, will eompre- hend at once the position in which New York is placed by this at:empt to send to Congress, at this particular crisis, such a man as Mr. Seward—the organ of factionists, and the agent of a set of opin- 1ons that xever can lead to anything but the spread- ing of enmity between the North and the South on the slavery question, which may eventually pro- duce disunion and destruction to the republic, as it now stands before the world. Cuna—Conpvct or tux Press towarps THE New York Heratp.—After all the abuse and ob- loquy cast upon us for our intelligence from Mad- nd, respecting the initiation of proceedings rela- tive to the destiny of Cuba, it comes out now, as common, notorious newspaper talk, that all we said at the time was true, and if Ppos- sible more than true. It appears, and 13 mentioned now as a matter of fact, in se- veral papers, that many influential citizens ot Cuba have long desired the annexation of that beautiful island to our Union. They even carried their zeal on this point to such a pitch as to send proposals for a grand coupdemaan to be made by our victorious army, on its return from Mexico, to take Cuba on its passage home from Vera Cruz, much about the same way that Napoleon took Malta on his way to Kgypt, in the early days of the French revolution. Such a wild proposition of course was not entertained for an instant, either by our generals or our government; but it 13 quite sufficient asa fact, to show the intensity of the with which prevails in Cuba for passing over from the supme embrace of Spain to an active share in the spirit and liberality of our glorious Union. What is curious about this matter 1s, that when we first gave in our columns, in advance by many monthe, of all the other papers, an intimation of what was going on, we were attacked as fab- of foreign cor- &e, ec. But now, after the lapse of several months, those very papers which thus attacked us, come out, and at this late day re- peat the very news and confirm the same facts of which we gave so early an intimation, by other and additional facts. Of the fact of diplomatic overtures having been doubt; but itis attempted to throw the onus of the whole upon the chief secretary of the embassy at Madrid, (Mr. Reynolds), and to pretend that our minister only connived at what was going on. At ail events, they are obliged now to change their tune, and endorse the very intelligence of the Herald which they so lately stigmatized as false. Of the merits of the question itself, we shal say nothing at present; we have already, on several occasions, expressed some of our views on this subject. Cuba may be desirable for us, or it may Tue City Rerorm Meetinc.—In another part of our columns will be found a graphic account of the above meeting, which was held last night at the Military Hall, inthe Bowery. The meeting, it will be seen, was a failure. We want retorm, indeed, in our city government; but in this meet- ing we see no symptoms of any approach to such a desirable consummation. It is true, some very respectable men composed this meeting; but the movers in this movement stand alone—the citizens have, as yet, made no rally; they have not shown any encouragement to any party which hitherto has moved in the matter. The evil is great; per- haps it will become yet greater and more crying before the people move effectually to apply a radi- cal remedy.

This is not the first movement which has been made in this matter; but every action hitherto has been an abortion ; the people seem impressed with the conviction that greatly as a reform in our inunicipal affairs is needed, such a reform, to quote Jack Bunsby, ‘as is a reform” can never be expected by merely re- placing the * ins” by the ‘ outs’—can never be brought about by a mere party movement, and that party mie ing the movement one of the least and most insignificant of all parties, In fact, we need not disguise the matter, since it 18, by this time, pretty notorious.

There was it deal of confusion and disorder in the process of these nominations ; any one from the crowd called out @ name, and generally whatever name was called out was put down. These nominations, therefore, from a soures of so little authority, are very similar to the invitations sent out to orators to come and peak at the meeting.
