Txizosaruic Inreisigznce.—Woe informed our feeders, the other day, that the New York and Boston Telegraph Company declared a dividend of six per cent, payable on the Ist inst. That wasthe first dividend declared by that company, but we hope that, now that the ice has been broken, the good work will goon. Othercompanies have been more fortunate. The New York, Albany and Buf- falo Telegraph Company has been in operation since the Ist September, 1846, during which time it has declared five dividends, as follows :— Tux Gravy Jury anp Tue Astor Praca Mas- sacrg.—We are still somewhat in the dark with regard to the action of the Grand Jury in relation to the tragedy of Astor Place.

Advortisers will please hand in their notices before nine o'clock this evening. The News from California, The intelligence from California to the 18th of May, received through Mexico, by the Clyde, at Mobile, is given in detailin another column of this morning’s paper. The accounts of the riots at San Francisco, of the want of power of General Smith, and of his seeking shelter on board the ships of war in port, have been generally discredited ; but it will be seen by ourprivate advices, that there is some truth inthe reports from Mexico, and that General Smith has been compelled to leave San Francisco by the notous proceedings of a portion of the inhabitants of that place. Our correspondent at Washington has seen let- tets from Mazatlan, containing intelligence from California to the 18th of May, written to Mr. Par- rott, our Consul at that place, who isnow in Wash- ington, confirming the statements made in the Trait d’Umon, ot the city of Mexico, and appa- rently placing the matter beyond a doubt. The letters to Mr. Parrott give the reasons for the outbrewk, and throw the whole blame upon the last Congress, whose conduct, in not establishing a territorial government in California, was net only reprehensible, but utterly disgraceful te that body of politicians. It is not improbable that these accounts may be more or less exag- gerated; still, we are not at all surprised that there should be a great deal of anarchy and confusion in California. An immense popula- tion has been suddenly poured into the territory; and though many of the immigrants are of the highest order of intelligence and respectability, yet not a feware the very reverse. Itis tobe hoped that goed order and the laws will, ere long, be perma- nently established in that rich region, through the instrumentality of those of our brethren who have gone there, who know the blessings of geed go- vernment, and the means of founding and maint ing it; but fears are expressed that this trouble is but the beginning; that without any regularly organized government; with the embittered feeling of the Americans against the nu- merous foreigners rapidly pouring into that coun- try, the most painful accounts of bloodshed and distrees, of anarchy and confusion, are to be ex- pected. The next advices from the Pacific will be looked for with increased interest and anxiety. The Next European Advices, The Washington and Canada are the next steamers due from Europe. The former was to have left England on the 20th, and the latter on the 23d ult. The last trip of the C. was made to Halifex in nine days, and her news reached New York in ten days from Liverpool. The same speed will place usin possession of one week's later news to-morrow afternoon. ‘The position of affairs in France, in Italy, Hunga- ry, Russia, and indeed in all parts of Europe, will cause the next accounts from the other side of the Atlantic to be read with the greatest interest. It will be pleasant to the citizens of this great republic to read the particulars of the con- tinued success of the republicans at Rome, in Hungary, and in various parts of the European continent, on the morning of the Fourth of July—the natal day of republiean- ism on this side of the Atlantic. The speed of the Canada may enable ns to spread her advices before our readers on that morning, and we hope they will be of a favorable character. Meanwhile we refer the public to the debates in the French Assembly, published in another co- umn. New Postat Arnancament—Ovr Postat Trra- Ty wrrn Great Brrtain.—We give, in another part of to-day’s paper, an official document, issued by the Postmaster General at Washington, con- taining, in full, the details of the postal treaty re- cently entered into between the United States and Great Britain. The particulars are arranged in chapters, under appropriate heads, and comprise the regulations between the respective offices of exchange, regu- lations respecting the exchange of correspondence, progressive rates of postage, &c., letter bills, ac- knowledgment of receipts, accounts, &c., dead, missent and returned letters, and a table of instruo- tions. We would recommend all our readers to post the document in their places of business, for they will find it a valuable reference. Out of evil, it is said, good comes. [t has been particularly so in the case of our foreign postal re- lations. Mr. Cave Johnson managed to knock them into pie, and, by his bungling and misma- nagement, rendered a treaty necessary. The re- sult is, that our citizens can now send @ letter to any part of the world, with the assurance that it will reach its destination, and can know to a cent what the postage will be “Sweet ane tuk Uses or Avversity.”—The democratic party of this city now present a most delighiful picture of fraternal affection, love, har- mony, concord, union, or, at least, of the desire to accomplich all these excellent objects. “ Union,” the woods, © union.” the floods, the botiow mountains ring!’ Thus far, all promises fur. The banns have been duly proclaimed, aod in due time the espou- sale will be consummated by legal and fitting ceremonial. Really, the democratic party ie a Great party; great at spouting, great in self-gevern- ment, great, gloriously great, in pureait of “the spoils.” In administrative talent and knowledge of the people, the democratic leaders are far supe- rior to the whiga, and it will now be seen how the same men can conduct an opposition. The game opens briskly. Much fun ahead. From Port av Prion —By the arrival of the schooner Herculean, yesterday, we have advices from Port aw Prince to the 16th of June, at which time everything was quiet. Business was very dull—flour selling at $5 25, and beet at $10 50; coflee was very scarce. his engagement, despite of all opposition from any quarter, and promising to support him, actually distributed tickets gratuitously, on condition tha; those who received them should proceed to the theatre and sustain their darling actor with physi- cal force, if necessary. Llere was a most astound- ing developement. las it been acted upon by the Grand Jury? Again, what has been the action of the Grand Jury with regard to the police and the authorities? It has been alleged, we do not say with what de- gree of truth, that some of the police were actually among the rioters on Monday night, or, at least, aided and abetted them—gave them “aid and comfort.” Have proper measures been taken to get at the facts mm relation to this strange feature in this strange and tragical business? And yet again, have the authorities, who shot down twenty- four cituzens, and maimed and wounded upwards of fifty more, passed beyond the limits of all inves- ugation, all inquiry, all punishment, if guilty? Is there only one side to this affair? Are those in authority te be regarded as immaculate and infalli- ble? Are the individuals who are now shown to have distributed tickets gratuitously, in order to encourage a breach of the public peace, also en- tirely removed beyond the pale of judicial investi- gation and judicial sentence ? Since the adjournment of the Grand Jury, a great many singular statements and rumors with regard to its secret proceedings have been afloat. The conduct of the authorities did come up as a subject of discussion. It was introduced for the purpose of obtaining an official endorsement of the shooung and maiming, by the Grand Jury. A long and excited discussion was the consequence, It is said that this attempt to whitewash the Mayor and authorities was prolonged for three whole, mortal, hot, steaming, eventful days. Ten mem- bers of the Grand Inquest contended that the au- thorities did perfectly nght in shooting twenty- five cituzens, and wounding and maiming upwards of fifty more Six of the number, on the other hand, strenuously resisted this attempt. The re- sult was, that the expression of approbation which was sought was not obtained. Are these things sot Did the room of the Grand Jury indeed pre- sent such an extraordinary scene? We have good authority for this statement. Time may develope still more singular things. There must be a thorough sifting of this whole business. Whether the Grand Jury has discharged its duty, and its whole duty, or not, one thing 1s certain, and that 1s, that the great body of the people of New York will not rest satisfied till all these hidden things of darkness be dragged to the light of day. There is a great deal of mystery involved in this business. The public know but little of what lies beyond the curtain. But the public must one day know all. Desperate efforts will doubt- less be made to conceal certain facts, and direct public indignation against, it may be, the innocent, and only a portion ofthe guilty. Can this be per- mitted? This isa matter of deeper import than many might suppose. Dark, mournful, and bloody as thi scene was, there are connected with it as- sociations and influences of the gravest import, which excite still more serious reflections in the minds of right-thinking men than those awakened by the slaughter itself. The minds of thousands in our midst are engaged in earnest thougat on these subjects; and all the eflorts at concealment— all the sedulous avoidance of a discussion of the case, or an allusion to it even, in certain public journals of this city—all the attempts to raise false issues, and lead the public attention to topics alto- gether foreign to the case in hand, will tail—mark it, they must fail. The lives of our fellow beings ure not to be sacrificed ; the peace and order and good name of this metropolis are not to be put in jeopar- dy, and yet they on whose shoulders the responsi- bility rests, be suflered to laugh at investigation and defy just judgment. It was but the other day that the Courier and Enquirer, of this city, in commenting on an article on this subject in the London Times, endeavored, with that marvellous cunning which characterizes a certain silly bird, to divert the public mind from the real merits of the case, by pointing out a new and atrocious criminality of which we had been guilty. It held us up to the reprobation of all Christendom, because we had been so abomninably incorrigible in our wickedness as to be the instruc- ter of the Londom Times “in all matters pertain- ing to American affairs!” ‘The Courier and En- guirer, with an indignant pathos, represented the Times newspaper as being “ in the habit of deriv- ing its ideas on American affairs from the New York Herald.” Really, the Times ought to be ashamed of itself! and, then, what punishment do not we deserve? Proceeding in its singularly adroit attempt, our amiable contemporary in Wal} street, who has not yet got his mission, went on to denounce us as an atrocious and desperate friend and ally of the mob—as the foe of the aristocracy of white kids and patent leather, the bankrupt no- bility of Astor Place. Now, in the name of the codfish aristocracy, or the codfish democracy, or anything else you please, what has this to do with the question? The London Times derives its views of American affairs from the New York He- raid, and, therefore, the authorities, and the police, and the distinguished committee who signed the “card,” are all immaculate—free from blame—did perfectly right in shooting down twenty-four citi- zens, and wounding and maiming ards of fifty more! It was meet that the atrocities of the New fork Herald should be expiated ; and what better way to do it thanby ordering out the military, and, while the valorous Mayor took to his heels, shoot- ing down twenty-four citizens and wounding and maiming upwards of fifty more! The London Times had derived its views of American affairs from the New York Herald, and it was, therefore, just, christian, wise and good, to tedden the stones of Astor Place with the warm reeking gore of our fellow-citizens! Besides, the chivalry of the New York West End was thus vindicated, enno- bled, baptized! Verily, a baptism of blood, for which all who participated in it must answer before heaven and this people. We will have no dodging —no concealment—no shifts—ne contrivances—no avoidance of just responsibility, in this woful busi- ners. Await curious developements ; as the 1 said to the prophet in hi turn tl yet mn, ozs and behoid greater abominations these!” From St. Crorx.—We have received our files of They the St. Croix Avis, down to the Mth ult. are barren of news. ee Movements of Individuals.

G Stoo, Warbington ” Father ath: we private seoratary place of copper wire the whole length of the line. Much has been said about the irregularity of the telegraph, and its uncertainty, but both are greatly exaggerated. Between New York, Albany, and Troy, during the year 1848, (not including Sun- days,) the line worked three hundred and thirteen days, not losing a single day ; between Utica and New York, with a loss of two days only; between Syracuse and New York, nine days loss; between Rochester and New York, twenty-six days loss ; between Buffalo and New York, twenty-nine days loss. The whole length of the line is five hundred and ten miles. This certainly is something to be proud of, and is as near perfection as we think pos- sible. Still, however, the business of telegraphing is only in its infancy. Troveies or Tux Copirrers.—The new code of legal practice appears to be made up, all through, of trouble and vexation. After bothering and an- noying the public by their mode of reform, which ig. as old as the locomotion of the crab, or Irish bulls—that is to say, it is a reform backwards—the commissioners very naturally set to work to tor- ment and bite one another. A very mysterious communication from John C. Spencer, one of these commissioners, has been going the rounds of the papers, setting forth, or affecting to set forth, the reasons which impelled him to inflict upon the State the terrible calamity of a resignation of his office. There were only three of these commis- sioners; but they could not agree—nay, they could not keep their temper! They were, in fact, law- yers; and even the marvellous new code could noy teach them the propriety and wisdom of the advice of a transcendently illustrious poet :— “O! little children, never let Your angry passios Your little bands wi whole concern. We hope that peace will go with him, now that he is free of “the code,” wh ch is preity generally regarded as one of the greatest humbugs of the age. Tue Fuvrrenina ar rue ‘om Housg.—There was a good deal of fluttering in the Custom House on Saturday, and there will be a good deal more to-day. Mr. Lawrence has retired from the Col- lectorehip, and early this morning, Mr. Maxwell will come down from his beautiful residence at Nyack, and enter upon the duties of the office.—- ‘We understand that, for a start, there are to be about one hundred and thirty removals. Among those known, are the four deputy collectors, and the cashier. The white palace in Wall street will presenta scene for a painter to-day. Inpian Incursions oN Tuk Frontrer.—Should not the government of the United States adopt very efficient measures tor repelling the incursions of the Indian tribes on our frontier? Every day ac- counts of the atrocities committed by the savages are reaching us, and excite the most painful appre- hensions. A strong force should be immediately despatched to the scene of these barbanties, and an end be speedily put to the incursions ot the 1 dians. We earnestly press this matter on the at- tention of the government at Washington. Tue Enouisn Maivs.—Who has charge of the English steamer’s mail when it reaches Jersey City? We learn that two bags of papers that ar- rived there on Friday night, did not reach the Post Office in this city till six o'clock Saturday evening. There should be some change made in the carrier of the mails across the river, in order to prevent a recurrence of the delay.
