New York, Tuesday, April 10, 1849. — "To the Inspectors of Electio "Wil tho Inspectors of Election, in the different wards, ount the mayoralty voto first, this evening. By pur- #uing this course, the result of tho election, so far as ‘the mayoralty is concerned, can be announced at an arly hour. There are so many split tickets in the ‘wards that considerable time will be consumed in counting all the yotes, Tho election of Mayor being a xpatter of general interest, all parties, from all wards, will be anxious to hear how it stands. By pursuing the course above recommended, the Inspectors will ma- ‘terially oblige the public generally, and the press par- ‘ticularly. State of Europe. We give in our journal of to-day, a number of extracts from leading European journals. They cannot fail to command an attentive perusal. ‘They furnish us with very important indications of the tone and current of public opinion on the ther side of the Atlantic. No American who entertains a just conception vof the value of his own rights, and the duties to -which the possession of them should incite him, sean behold without the deepest interest, the present condition of that ancient world from whence we ourselves have sprung. There probably never was a period in the history of human affairs, in which the movements of the great powers of the earth ‘were invested with so much grandeur and go- qemnity as at this very moment. Yet it is, per- hhaps, not saying too much, when we remark that the great events now following one another in such quick succession in Europe, do not attract amongst us that absorbing interest which their magnitude and importance are calculated to elicit. Indeed, the very grandeur of these events, and the ra- pidity of their occurrence, seem to dazzle and be- -wilder the spectator at a distance. Like the quiet family circle, who, seated snugly around the cheerful fireside, hear unmoved the fierce howlings of the tempest which beats harmlessly around their peaceful dwelling, we, secure and pros- perous beneath the shade of our spreading vine, look forth with, mayhap, too little sympathy on the struggles of our brethren in other lands, over which the storm is sweeping. But the hour seems to be at hand when the most apathetic must be aroused to an intense inte- rest in the affairs of Europe. A terrible conflict is at hand. The colossal strength of the vast Russian ‘empire, backed by all the force which other despo- tisms can muster, must, sooner or later, enter the field with the new-born power of the people. No ‘one can fail to be interested in the present state of ‘he Italian question. Indeed, already the sympa- hies of portions of the American people have been awakened for struggling Italy. A public meeting cwill be, we learn, held in this city in a short time, for the purpose of expressing this feeling of sym- pathy. No doubt the movement will be followed up extensively. Whatever policy may be enter- tained by the administration with regard to inter- ference in foreign affairs, there can be no doubt as to the feelings and sympathies of the American people. Politicians and party leaders may be cold and callous—they may have no pulse for the pa- ‘riots of other lands—but the great body of Ameri- scan citizens have their heart in the right place, ‘We commend the copious extracts which we Ahave given to the thoughtful consideration of our readers. Pourricat Corrurtion—Necxssity por RevorM. —A few days since, at a meeting of the Board of Assistant Aldermen in this city, one of that body, ina very plain and distinct manner, asserted that he had been tampered with—that he had actually been offered a bribe for his vote on the question of the Williamsburg ferry. This much he said in re- Jation to himself ; and if he stopped at this point, ahere would not be any necessity for commenting ‘at any great length upon the matter ; but he went farther, and stated as strongly as he could, with- out making a direct charge, that several of his colleagues, who had uniformly voted in opposition to the measure, and on the night in question voted iin its fayor, were induced to change their minds by an agreement, which he was afraid it would not be proper to mention in the council chamber ; in other words, that the party or parties who had offered a bribe to him, had succeeded in pur- chasing the votes of those of his colleagues to whom he alluded. As soon as this astounding and disgraceful de- velopement reached our ears, we published the circumstance, and called upon Mr. Miller to make @ full disclosure of all he knew of the matter, tating at the time that he owed it to himself and the credit and reputation of the city todo so, in view that the guilty parties might be held up to public condemnation, and the severest punishment nflicted on the wrong doers. We were anxious, 00, to see What course would be adopted by the Board of Assistants on the next night of the meet- ang. ts is now some time since these occurrences took place, and as yet we have seen no notice taken of them, or any attempt made to probe the matter, or to vindicate the Board of Assistants from the charge thus brought against a few of its members directly, and the whole of them indirectly, although they have assembled more than once since. We shall, therefore, leave our readers and the public to draw their own conclusions in the matter, and put a proper estimate on the virtue, integrity, and incorruptibility of the present Board of Assistant Aldermen. ‘Our object in referring to this matter to-day, is not to censure that body, ar to forestall public opinion in any way, but to let the public know the manner in which the municipal affairs of our city buve been conducted. They have proof, in this in- stance at least, that, at all events, it ig liable to surpicion, and that there are some doings which would not look very well if exposed to the light. Now, the question is, will they continue this system, or will they demand that it shall ceaso ? Will they vote to-day for, the amended charter, which will, if passed, give us a system of Tespon- sible government, under which no such laxity as that above referred to, could occur? We shall see. Atall events, it rests with themselves to say whether they will have a eorrnjA or pire city go- veguingul in ew York. Fouriovs Assautt sy Cor. Wann on tas Naw Apmrusrration.—Your desperate office-beggar 1s always ready to clutch at anything that offers a chance of advancing hissuit. A few days since, an intelligent and well informed correspondent of the Herald, furnished our readers with a calm and dis- passionate analysis of the materials of Gen. Taylor's cabinet;andon this,Col. Webb has pounced with an alacrity very amusing, and, like the well known fa- blesof Aesop, perfectly intelligible tothe meanest ca- pacity, Indeed, our correspondent’s letter’ was evidently a god-send to the poor Colonel, as it af- forded him an opportunity of delivering himself of the elaborate puff of General Taylor and his cal net which he attempts to palm off upon the public asa reply to the communication in question. The Colonel starts by assuring his readers that he has “not paid the slightest attention to the thou- sand and one falsehoods which the correspondent of the Herald have written from Washington, in re- lation to himself.” Now this is an entirely gratui- tous assumption on the part of the Colonel. Nota word has been said about him in our columns, ex- cept that he was a candidate for the mission to Berlin or Madrid. Is not that perfectly true? Is it not quite well known that our contemporary has been dogging the footsteps of the new administra- tion in the character of an office beggar? Has there been any falsehood in the statements about his appearance at Washington in thisapplicatory ate titude? Notat all. The fact is notorious. We have not published a syllable more than was known to the whole generation of beggars at Washing- ton, and the honest people throughout the country, who stand afar off and have their own notions about men and things in that delectable village. The Colonel, then, in the very first sentence of his long and labored article, states that which is not susceptible of proof. Nor is the Courier and Enquirer any more fortu- nate in the attempt to cast discredit on the descrip. tion which our correspondent gave of the highly respectable gentlemen who now occupy the responsible position of the cabinet advisers of Ge- neral Taylor. Ina spirit of impartiality and can- dor, our correspondent described the character and status of these individuals. Colonel Webb does not impugn the accuracy of that description. In- deed, were our account of the cabinet only emas- culated in certain particulars, and loaded with ful- some adulation, it would be almost as good a puff as that of the Colonel. Certainly, if the two column “‘first rate notice,” which Colonel Webb has so eagerly printed, be acceptable to the mem- bers of the cabinet, we shall be constrained to ,put them all a peg lower than that notch at which they have been placed by our correspon- dent. If the “first rate notice” of the General and ,his cabinet, contained in the Courier be rewarded by the mission to Madrid, that by the Herald ought to have the mission Lon, don, Ours is the best—his is too much in the florid style of the fashionable hatters and perfumers. Truly great men do not like to be puffed and advertised like some new chemical soap or miraculous pain-extractor.— Discriminating, judicious, candid analysis of his character and conduct, even should it point out faults and errors, cannot be displeasing to a public man of worth and talent. But as for this wholesale flattery and grandiloquent eulogy— faugh! ‘Civet, good apothecary!” But, true to his natural instinct, Mr. Webb bepuffa and be- spatters the cabinet. He did the like to Mr. Polk till the brigadiership was refused. They are all gods, to the point of refusal. The countryne- ver before sawsuch men. They are “ giants in in- tellect”—‘ men of mark.” This one has “se kind a heart”—that one is ‘a perfect gentleman in his bearing.” Thus runs the Colonel through nearly two mortal columns. At length, after ex- hausting hyperbole, he says that Reverdy Johnson «will be, in times of (difficulty, the cement, in the hands of the old General, which will bind all toge- ther as a unit.” Good gracious! Our correspon- dent described Mr. Johnson as ‘a very sharp, shrewd lawyer ;” but Colonel Webb, who swears he knows him better, makes him out to be, after all, only a bit of “court plaister.” As if to cap the climax of his transparent silli- ness, Colonel Webb accuses us of publishing ‘‘gos- sip” in which nobody places any reliance. Why, the poor Colonel himself has done nothing but re- tail “gossip” during all the period of his anxious sojourn at Washington. His idle “ gossip” about General Scott and the President has been the sub- ject of general remark. It was not, even, like the the novels, ‘‘ founded on fact ;” and was flatly con- tradicted in the columns of the Cowrier and En- quirer itself, by ‘‘a perfectly reliable and responsible person.” Even General Taylor himself does not escape this inveterate gossip. In the very article on which we are now commenting, Webb says «that the impression which the General makes upon all who approach him, is far more favorable than could have been anticipated!” A singular compliment! But then Webb has such a nice way of saying pretty things! ‘‘ Far more favorable im- pression than could have been anticipated!” Does the amiable panegyrist mean to insinuate that peo- ple expected to meet a monster in General Taylor? Mr. Webb adds, in the apologetic tone of some Mis, Lydia Languish, vindicating the love which she has bestowed on some ill-looking fellow, deeply marked with the small-pox, ‘The General is by no means a beauty ; but his smile is decidedly fas- cinating !” This was almost the death of us, and it was not without great cachination that we got through the succeeding two or three sentences, till we reached this one, and then we fairly yielded :— «* There is no affectation about him ; and to ladies and children he is particularly gracious, as if he felt that they can best wnderstand his nature !”— ‘Whew! Ha! ha! ha! Really, really, this is becoming serious. Fort the love of all the gods, gentlemen of the cabinet, do get rid of Mr. Webb as soon as possible. Give him whatever he wants, without a moments’ delay. If you do not, he will puff you to ruin, No adminis- tration could stand more than two or three broad. sides from such a doting admirer. Do send him toBerlin, or Madrid, or Constantinople, or to Coven. try. Some place he must have. How tux Money Gors.—Some light has been thrown on this problem in the Comptroller’s re- port. In this document, we find, among many others, quite interesting to the tax payers, the fol- lowing item: Printing—D: ‘ily Globe, 60 days’ notice, ening Post, do “ Com, Advertiser, do . “ Cour. & Enquirer, do owe Now here we have hundreds and hundreds of dollars of the public money thrown away upon hewspnpers without circulation or influence. The Courier and Enquirer is the only paper among therm that possesses any circulation, justifying the publication of an advertisement in its columns. Of course, the object in selecting such papers for pub- lic advertisements is to corrupt them—a very un- necessary and profitless business. It is in this way that the public money is squandered, and the preas degraded. Forrest axp Mcarzapy Aoain.—As we publish adouble sheet to-day, we thought we would i clude in it Mr. Forrest's last letter on the import- ant and everlasting quarrel between that eminent tragedian and Mr. Macready, and which will, ac cording to all appearances, occupy some time yet before its final adjustment. How or whenit is going to end, we know not, for Mr. Forrest pro- mises another epietolary broad-side or long-side in a few days; and Mr. Macready, we suppose, will give his version of the affair, and endeavor to up- set Mr. Forrost’s. Thus it will go on until one party or the other becomes tired, or brings it to a conclusion by wisely abandoning it, or the publio become tired of the subject, whioh {they will, no doubt, if itbe not settled soon. We hope this fquabble in theatrical life will not uterfere with the general prosperity of the county. Gamarers axp Gamatina Hovszs. another column will be found a card from Mr. C. G. Gra- ham, publisher of a weekly journal, which is prin- cipally occupied in disclosing, describing, and de- nouncing the silly, disreputable, and fashionable wonders of this mighty metropolis. The card pro- fesses to make a correction of a mistake, in men- tioning as a frequenter of a certain gambling sa- loon, a gentleman of this community, of a highly respectable and wealthy family, while the fact is, the person indicated never was in a gambling apartment in his life, and hardly knows the cards sufficiently to play an ordinary{game of whist. We know the gentleman upon whom this blunder was published ; we have known him for years, and we can vouch for his high reputation, in every social and moral distinction. Apropos of those gambling saloons. It seems that these establishments have increased very won- derfully in this city during the last few years.— They are generally conducted by persons who possess the manners, appearance, and demeanor of the most accomplished gentleman that can be met with at fashionable soirées, or at the Italian Opera on subscription nights. They are scattered in the most fashionable quarters of the city, and are con- ducted with the greatest fastidiousness in taste and propriety; and we have every reason to believe that a large portion of our young men of wealth and faehion, in this and the neighboring cities, spend too great a portion of theirtime at them; and we understand some of them are rapidly wearing out their constitutions and fortunes by indulging too freely in these and other fashionable pyrsuits. Dur- ing the last winter the fashionable frequenters of theee elegant saloons have been constant visiters in the parquette and coulisses of the Opera House. In fact, the managers of the gambling saloons of New York are, in point of manners and genteel appear ance, even superior to the fashionable brokers o ‘Wall street. In point of strict morality and re- ligious feeling, probably they are very much ona level. If the Sunday and weekly newspaper press, which is engaged in describing these establish- ments, were to manage their developements with more decorum and propriety, they might perhaps succeed better in abating the evil,and cireumscrib- ing their influence among tho silly and fashion, able young men about town. Canapian Matter: deal of importance is to be attatched to what that journal states on such subjects; for the views which it takes are more or less those of the ministry. It will be seen that the T¥mes treats the matter with a great deal of nonchalance, and alludes to the bill as a measure of the dominant party to secure the spoils of place, in the same way as their predecessors in the government acted, and which the royalists would imitate, were the tables to be turned. Such sentiments, coming from the semi- official organ of the parent government, will doubt. lesa induce the Governor General of Canada to sign the bill; and when he does so, the ultra loyal- ists will have an opportunity to carry their threats of rebellion and independence into effect. We shall see what the result will be. At all events, a crisis in Canadian affairs is approaching. The slight thread which holds those provinces to Eng- land, may be cut by revolutionary scissors sooner than many imagine. Fovrmrirr Honor.—The Fourierite organ in this city—the 'ribune—published, in its evening edition of yesterday, the account of the piracy case in the Pacific, which appeared in the Herald ex- clusively, without intimating where it came from. Oh! shade of Fourier! Mong News rrom Evrorg.—The Hermann, with two days later intelligence from Europe, will be due at this port to-morrow or next day. Important from Central Amerie ‘The National Intelligencer, of the 9th inst, says:—We have been put in possession of letters of an authentic character, from Guatemala, of dates from the 5th of January to the 12th of February, from which we learn that Mr, Hise, the Charge d’Affaires, of the United States to that State, (Central Americs,) had not been able to present himself to its President, because thero existed, upon his arrival, no government at all, the country being in the midst of anarchy, rovolution, and civil war. Rafael Carrera, who had been President, and who had ruled tho State for ten years by military force, without awritten constitution, was compelled by the opposi- tion in arms against him, to resign, and leave the country, in August last. A Constituent Assembly was convoked, which elected Juan A. Martinez provisional president} Vicente Crus, who was Carrera's Vice President. with another brother of his, and some others, disaffected to this new arrangement, roso against the Provisional Government—claiming that, upon Carrera’s resigna- tion, the offico of President should have fallen on Crus, Under these circumstances, Martine, tho President, without means or troops that could be deponded on, and surrounded with difficulties, convoked tho Assem- bly and resigned tho office. The Assembly forthwith elected §. R. D, Bernard Escobar, President in his stead, which did not satisfy ¥.

At Inst tho eventful day has arrived, and politicians ere all astir, Tho candidates are all sure of election, and many voters do not care a pin whe is elected.

As tothe mayoralty candidatos, there in #0 little choico between them, that many persons will sink party, and votesfor the man with whom they are best acquainted. Soveral influontial merchants who belong to the whig party, and who know Mr. Van Schaick to be an excellent business man, have declared their determination to vote for him; while, on the other hand, many of tho dissatiasfled democrats declare that they will vote for Mr. Woodhull, rather than for » flue soil man, ‘Tho address of the anti-Van Schaick mem, which appeared in the papers yosterday morning, had its effect; and the old cries of dissension were again h «vu m'pinces whero tho democracy congregated.
