Kebranry 4, 184! ‘The Discovery of the Gold Mincs—Its Effect in Murope. From the commencement of the world to the present, history hae been marked with certain epochs and great events, which, fora longer ora shorter period, attracted the undivided attention of the world; and which have descended to posterity as events to be ever remembered for the good or evil which they may have effected in the des- tinies of the humaa famuy, and the nations of the earth. By thue attracting universal attention, all other matters are, for ihe time, forgotten, and events are allowed to work their own way, for good or for evil. Among the most important of the periods, or great occurrences, to which we re- fer, are the ware between the Greeks and Persians, which ultimately ended in the defeat of the latter by Alexander the Great; the war between the Ro- mans and the Carthagenians, which resulted in the dectruction of the latter; the crusades in the middle ages ; the reformation of Luther, and the Panama Rarzoap —Our readers are, no doubt: aware that Messrs Howland end Aspiawall, of this city, have obtained the nght of way for the construction of a railroad across the Isthmus of Paoerscrive Trovure at Wasuinetox.— Three remarkable men have been, or shortly will be, semt trom their respective States to the United States Senate, at Washington—Clay, from Ken- Panama, fiom Chagree to Panama, and that they | tuckys Case, from Michigan; and Seward, trom despatched, a short time since, a company of ectentific men to explore and survey the route. The securing of this right from the goverament ot New Granada, was attended with a great ex- penditure of ime aud labor, and accompanied with a vast deal of expense. Thoee difficulties and that expenditure, are, however, of no moment when compaied to the immense advantages which this county directly, and in a proportionate degree the whole commercial world, will derive from the construcuon of a ratiroad that will bring Asia and our remote territory of Calitoraia within a mode- rate distance of both Europe and this country, The subject of connecting the waters of the Paeafic with those of the Adantic has occupied the attention of the world for more than two haa- dred years past. The benefits which would cer- tainly flow from it have not been exaggerated, aud the great wonder 18. that the work has not been entered upon and completed long before this The mght of way is, however, at length, secured, and itisa meter of congratulation that it is in the hands of our own citizens, and that the trade and commerce of Asia, the western shores of the American continent, and also of Europe, must pass through American hands, Indeed, the im- portance of a railroad across the continent can- not be,gver-estimated. ; It bas always been the practice, as it certainly is the policy, of all governments, to favor projects of great public benefit—such as the ene to which we have referred. Thus, all our ocean steamship tines have been patronized, not by way of gift, however, but by securing to them a portion of government business, such as the carrying of the government mails, &c. As eoon as Mr. Aspinwall and his associates had secured the right to construct a railruad across the Isthmus of Panama, they applied to Congress for some encouragement in carrying out their great unde1~ taking, not as a gratuity, but as a compensation for services of a valuable and important nature to be performed. They propose to make a contract with government to carry the mails, and to con- vey across the Isthmus, from ocean to ocean, everything that might be required of them—stores tor the national vessels in the Pacitic, arms and munitions of war, United States troops, naval stores—in fact, everything—tor two hundred and fifty thousand dollars per annum, a sum which certainly cannot be considered too large; and to submit, in consideration of reveiving the contract, to allow Congress to affix the rates of toll which they should charge on merchandise and passen- discovery ot the gold und silvei mines of Mexico and Peru. All those events exerted great iafluence on the world in thoee times, and that influence, to a certain extent, 1s experienced at the present day. Coming down to modern times, we find another great epoch developing itself, and which, from present appearances, promiees to be as wonderful in its eflects as any of those which we have men- tioned. We allude to the vast discoveries of recently made in California. Now, what will be the effect ot those discoveries ‘on this country and on Europe? We have seen that the gold mama has completely thrown in the shade the agitation and exeitement caused by the slavery question in Congress, and out of at; that it 18 at the present time producing an emigration of our best classes of popula- tion, who, even if they do not finu all the gold they expect, or even it they do not find any at all, will eflect an entire revolution on the western They are, in either event, laying the foundation of greatness, that will, in due course of time, rival that of the Atlantic side. They will founda western empire, that will change the whole course of trade, and make San Francisco on the Pacific, and New York on the Atlantic, the great receiving and dis- tributing reservoirs of the wealth, commerce, ma. mineral wealth shores of the American continent. aufactures, and productions of the whole commer cial world. What fur:her changes it will effect, time alone can teil. The changes which it may cause in Europe muy be as great. Already the excitement attendant on the receipt of intelligence almost as expeditions, joint-stock of the discovery of the El Dorado, great esitishere. Shy companiee, and adventures, are advertised. Po- litucal disputes, revolutionary thoughts and changes, fade away betore the gorgeous future, which has been concealed sv long. Dreams ot gold, .n unde- fined and boundle.s quantities, disturb the sleep of all clasees of the population of that region of the world ; and Cobden’s financial reform sinks into insignificance, compared with the placards and announcements ef trading, mining, and gold washing associations. If the excitement increase in Europe, it will have tne effect of divertiag men’s minds from the subject of political reto:m, and, to a great extent, will draw off the adventurous spirits who have been the cuure of the revolutions and agitations which we have seen tuke place there within the pastyear. The spirit which auimated those men, will find vent and ecope for action in another form and shape. If this be the case, it certawnly will be anything but gratitying to the friends of politi- cal refoim, and may stop the progress of that spirit «which was so long dormant there, but which as- sumed form and shape under the counsels and aus- pices of Pope Pius the Ninth, and which over- threw Lous Philippe. d This will certainly not be euch will be the case. dy stifle all further attempts at revolution, or whe- ther it will pave the way fora reaction 10 public sentiment, 1s more than we can predict; bat it strikes ve, arguing by analogy, that it will protract the consummation which was so evident, at no great length of ume, a few mouths since. IRELAND AND O’ConNgELI For many years Damiel O'Connell, the great Irish Liberator, as he was, no doubt, ironically called, (for the name, 1t- self, is the most cutting irony,) collected immense sums from the poor, but generous, [rish people, under the name of “Rint.” All Ireland paid tri- bute to Conciliation Hall and ©’Connell. Wha became of this rint has ever been a mystery. No journal dared to open its mouth to make the inqui- ry, for O’Connell had the knack and the means of insulting and brow-beating every independent man who would not bow the knee to this [rish Baal.— Until he died, the Irish people were literally en- slaved, and were payers of tribute to one of the most blustering tyrants that everlived. Only af- ter his death was the yoke broken by the gallant efforts of the Young Ireland party. ‘By ite means, ©’Connell’s family lost the succession to the throne of the Liberator, and Ireland became tree from one tyranny at least, and that a very heavy one. But after all the rint and mouey paid to Concilia- tion Hall—atter the immense sumscollected from the Insh people, it 1s curious to read the following apnouncement of its bankruptey, which we ex- tract from the Cork Examiner. We give itin our hatred of tyrants, and of all deception, and to ex- pose how they ure mere respectable swindlers, whether known by the name of Kings or Libera- tors. We have always been a frend to the people, and especially to the Irish people, and have always been opposed (o tyrants, and pseudo Liberators ; hence the bitter enmity egainst us of them and all their myrmidons. The following is the Cumpte Rendy of the extinct government of the late mon- arch of all Ireland. Peace to his ashes.

It wou'd be supposed, when we consider the fact that these gentlemen are the exclusive owners of the right of way—that they have a com- plete monopoly of transit across the Isthmus—that, 1n congequence of the discovery of gold 1n Cali- fornia, it 15 a matter of great importance to have easy access to it; and that, in a commercial point of view, itisa matter of great moment to have a railroad across the Iethmus. It would be supposed that Congress would have at once em- braced the offer made to them. Instead, how- ever, of doing so, they have thrown obstacles and impediments in the way of Mr. Aspinwall and his enterprising associates. We are positively sur- prized at the course which cervain members ot the Senate have thought proper to pursue in the mat- ter. We expected better things from them. Now this is a business which concerns the whole American people; and it the contract which Mr Aspinwall proposes be not entered into, it will be a lasting disgrace to Congress. That body has been in seseion for many weeke, and as yet they have done nothing Their time has been occupied in debating about abstractions that tend only to put one section of the country in opposition to another, and stir up feelings of animosity and hatred that may lead to the worst consequences. Let them, even at this late period of the session, do something for the interests of the country, and> among other beneficial measures now before them, empower the proper officer of goverament to enter into the contract with Mr. Aspinwall and his aveo- ciates, so that we can have, at as early a period as possible, an almost direct communication with not only our Californian territory, but the whole Asiatic continent. Do not, for goodness sake, let the whole seesion pass over without anything beneficial to the country being done. Curious CuaRacreaistics oy OntHopox Catuo- Licity 1n New Yorx.—Bishop Hughes, the head of the Catholic Church in the diocese of New York, 18 a man of great talent and acknowledged ability and erudition; but on matters touching the rebgion which he protesses, he certainly entertains some strange notions. In relation to the exile of the Pope, the Bishop’s organ in this city, the Freeman’s Journal, of yes- terday, contains the following sentiments, which certainly wouid be more appropriate to the middle ages than to the nineteenth century.:— (From the Freeman's Journal } Tue Exie or His Hotness —In the touching p: toral of Bishop Maginn. in another column, will found an allusion to the asylum that His Holin might find in the Republic of the United States.

His Holiness the Pope would be secure of safety in the United States—his person would not be liable to assault; and we are certain that he would not be driven from his pontifical residence if he had one here, as he was by his own Catholic subjects in Rome. ‘We do not see, therefore, why the “consecrated foot” of Pius the Ninth might not bear him with great propriety to the United States. Funds could be collected and a Vatican could be built, in which he might transect the duties of the Pontificate as readily—and with more safety to his person--as he could in any part of Europe, even in Rome. By the way, what is the meaning of the follow- ing letter, which we tind in the same Freeman's Journal-—the recognised organo Bishop Hughes addressed to the editor of that journal:— “R_ Room, Sr. Jonn's Coureae.

We only couple the latter name with the first two, as beivg not like them remarkable for talents and utility, but rather the reverse. The influence these three individuals will exei cise upon the incoming administration, we regard as hkely to be inauspicious. We expect Mr. Clay will resist most of the nominations made of mea who have exhibited any departure from theirformer allegiance. We expect that Seward will embar- raes the adminietrat-em, and make himselt ridicu- fous by his abolition propensities; and as to Gea. Case, we only look naturally to him tor that honest, upright opposition which, as a party man, he feels pledged to give to the new admunistration. No doubt, efforts will be made on all hands to embarrass General Taylor, and many of these will be made by sot dtsant friends. But sueh is the well-known firmness, quietness, and honesty of Old Zack, that we believe ne will smile at them all, and hold on his course with triumphant inde- pendence.

Theatrical and Musical, Bowery Tueatre.—We never laughed more heartily at any play than we did last night, at the very amusing comedy of “Married Life,’ which was the first piece played; and the roars of laughter and continued ap- plause which was bestowed on it by the large audience arsembled, from the first to the last scene, showed how eppreciated it.
