M. to10 jay, July b 1sav, Important Movement of Mr, Vai and the Barnbarners, We see it stated in the newspapegs that ex-Pre- | sident Van Buren has been very much engaged for the last few months in enlarging his country res dence near Kinderhook, beautifying his chateau at Lindenwald, and adding many new improve- ments to the villa where he has resided for the last few years, on the banks of the Hudson. These, | however, are not the only improvements and en- Jargements in which this distinguished statesman and astute politician has been engaged ia of late.— We are credibly informed that he has been equally busy, in conjunction with his political friends aad udvisers, in making several large additions to the Bufialo platform of political principles, for the pur- | pore of being enabled to enter the tiela of ambition | in 1862. The principal characteristic of the Buffalo plat- form was the adoption of the Wilmot proviso, which had been started in Coagress by Mr. Wile | mot, of Pennsylvania, but which had been floating about like a log in the political waters for several years, until it was picked up by Mr. Van Buren, and made the corner stone of the Buffalo movement, | about a year ago. Mr. Van Buren, as a statesinan and a politician, has always been celebrated for originating nothing, and for adopting and securing whatever ideas are afloat at the tune, that had been started by others, and that might be serviceable to himself and party, by incorporating them for his ulterior movements. His whole political lite pre sents nothing but a series of such tactics in adopt- ing opinions, movements, ideas, and principles, started by other minds and other mea. The same character he will retain to the last. In reference to the present anomalous condition ef the political world, we understand that he aad a number of his friends have been consuitiag, with the greatest piivacy, as well as with the greatest | warmth, whether they should not hereafter gradu- | ally incorporate in their pluttorm, fur future use, all the notions and ideas on slavery, which have been put forth by Tappan, Garrison, and the aboliuon- ists of New York and New England tor thy last twenty years. Without some aew movement of this kind, some fresh step in advance of the pre- sent day, the union of the old huakers with the barmburners would not yield to the latter all the pepulanty and influence which will satisty them | im the result of future events. Mr. Van Barea is | ‘@ cunning man, und is ulways looking ahead. We are sutistied from the information that we have re- | ceived from Lindenwald, of a private character, that the barnburners, while they are endeavoring | to create a union with the hunkers throughout the free States, are also preparing to come out in due course ef time, not only for the abolition of slavery | in the District of Columbia, but gradually to adopt some measures looking positively aud distinctly to | the abolition of slavery, in some form, throughout allthe Southern States. The immediate motive of such a dangerous and radical movemeat is to con- — trol, completely, the popular party of the free States in the next presidential election; for it is very evident that, while the door was once open- ed—which was done by the Wilmot proviso—the public mind can’t be stopped at techaical points, but will rush the whole length, and go for the abo- ition of slavery throughout the whole South. The agitation already commenced for incorporating British North America in this confederacy will also aid and assist in such @ policy, and in such a | movement as will ultumately erush the South, and lead to the same results in that section ot the Union which we have seen in the British West Indies. ‘The ergans of Mr. Van Buren may deny the ac- euracy of the information which we have received, ditclosing the purposes of that shrewd politician, in deliberating upon, and ultimately adopting, the abolition policy of the Garrison school in futare movements, but we have the stroogest reasons for believing that our information is correct, and that one of the most dangerous schemes has been coa- cocted and hatched at Lindenwald, uader the aas pices of Mr. Van Buren, which was ever yet at- tempted in this country by any political party, und which will ultimately lead to the destruction and demolition of the Southern States. The authority | of old Thomas Jefierson will be given, in due time, for those views, by the friends and partisans of Mr. Van Buren ; and the recent movements of Benton, | Cass, and the old huukers of the democracy, throughout the free States, including also Seward ubt, induced Mr. Van and his perty, have, no « Buren to be ahead of them in the next great movement. We have much more to say on this subject.

The French republic, under the presidency of Napoleon's ne- phew, has allied itself to the despots and monarchs by which it is surrounded, and presents an aspect of almost ludicrous contradiction to its birth and pretensions a year ago. The liberty of the press in Paris, and thronghout the departments, seems, », to be completely suppress ed, and the Assembly; recently elected by six mil- lions of people, have adopted a policy as stern and despotic as that of the military governments of Austria and Prussia. The revolutionists, demo- crats, socialists, and movement men of all ranks and classes, ure scattered throughout the continent, and have even to apply to the press of London for achannel through which to promulgate their sen- timents and views in the present crisis ot affairs. Rome must fall; the Pope will, probably, be re- stored ; Italy will be throwa back to her former regrae; Hungary must be overpowered and over- run by the armies of Austria and Russia, and the soldiery of Prussia have very nearly extinguished all symptoms of change and revolution in the Rhen- ish provinces bordering on France. Thus, in one view, France and the surrounding character- istics of governmental action and public poliey, in spite of all the efforts, and all the noise, and all the expectations, which have been excited through- ears. This gent men to establish popular goveram been mainly produced by two causes of very dif- | ferent ongin, but operating to similar results. One of those causes springs from the incapacity, imbecility, folly, absurdity, and stuy! leading republicans of France, in endeavoring to abandon practical measures for visioaary theories, and overlooking just and regular action for the reveries of socialism and other follies of the day. | The visions of Louis Blane, Ledru Rollin, Proud. hon, and even some of those of formed the first nucleus of this ¢ brought about the present leaentable reaction on the public mind and policy of the ch republie, with all its train of similar influences in Italy and Germany. The next cause, operating in a similar way, but from a diiferent origia, may be dis- Liamirtine, » Which has ; covered in the tact, sagacity, dexterity, and man” agement, of the Bourse aud its agents, both polite cians and financiers, who have availed themselves ot the follies of the movement party, to lead the public mind away from the establishment of ra- tional republicanism, and the promulgation of | Among the heads, and some of | popular opinions. the master spirits of this party, who have managed with so much skill to place the French republic in her present position, we may enumerate that re- markable man Thiers, and others of a like cha- racter and capacity, by whom he is surrounded in The politcians of the Bourse—the finan- ciers of Paris, Loadon, Vienna, and Berlin, while | they furnish funds to the military or republican despotisms, promulgate their policy at the same time. Thus, in one view, may be presented the aspect which France and Europe now present in relation to the great revolution of the age. It is undera complete eclipse. The popular impulses have been | overcome by the combined folly and absurdity of the revolutionists themselves, seized upon by tse financiers und politicians ot the modern school, | who have turned their faults to their own advan- t ud almost to the actual extinction of repub- lean government and France. Yet this is bat one of those partial obscurations which can’t last long. The people of France and all Europe can learn pracuecal democracy only by repeated attempts. After the lingering attempts that are yet im action have been put down by the military power of the monarchs combined with France there may be a seuson of very interesting and amusing repose in Europe for a few years. The immense public debts of those various governments, whether royal or republican, will increase and still more burthen the people with exactions of all kinds. We can | only wait with patience until the popular mind is properly educated, and the popular unpalses shall be directed to legitamate ends, by competent and intelligent men. _ ye Beenioxance Waterina PLAaces—FaAsiion ante Beaver.—A complete revolution seems to have taken place during the present season, jin the amount of fashionable travel, and attendance at fashionable watering places. In comparison with former seasons at this day and date, the railroad cars und steamboats are hulf deserted, and Sara- toga, Newport, Sharon, and other places of fash- ionable resort, present nothing but emptiness and melancholy. The correspondents whom we sent to those places, that they might pick up the gostipping and news, have tried to make the best out of the scanty materials; but not in twenty years, we are free to say, has the number been 80 comparatively few as now is presented at the fushionable watering places, and along the lines of fashionable travel. The United States Hotel at Saratoga, has ouly as yet numbered about two hundred at the dinner table; Congress Hall, and the American House, reach a far more diminished number. Sharon Springs are hardly heard of, and probably are untenanted. A few old women, of the last century, some of them in breeches, equally antiquated, are said to have sighed in melancholy solitude in the halls at Rockaway. Newport, so fashionably crowded last year, presents nothing splendid scenes upoa the sea shore, and splendid miseryin the unfilled corridors. The Ocean House counts only about twenty families up to Saturday last, and the At- lantie about thirty-tive, including children and servants.

The number of applications for offiee exceed six thousand, and the cry is * still they come !”” Connected with these applications there have been many amusing incidents growing out of the folly, inexperience, yreenness, carelessness, or impudence of candidates, all which we may pre- sent our readers with, some hot day, for their edification. There is nothing so refreshing as a good laugh, or a glass of good water, when the thermometer is at 94 degrees. The immortal Captain Rynders has been dis- missed; but this had no reference to his involve- ment in the Carleton House affair. Several pious saints have been retained to take his place, besides some appointed. It is said that the captain called upon the Collector, and showing his letter of dismissal, very pompously demanded to know how it was, and “what is meant by addressing me as Mr.” instead of * Esquire?” The Col- lector looked at him, and politely desired him to leave the room, with which request, he as politely, complied; no doubt regretting that he should | have asked such a question in the presence of a room full of people. The new Colleetor 1s an early bird; he is often in the Custom House by seven o’clock in the | morning. ’Tis said he has more than once visited the Custom House in medio nocte, to see | if his guards were on the alert. ‘To their credit | bet suid, he has never yet caught them napping. | our readers are aware, some millions of property | are stored under charge of the night and day watch, ome days since, ’tis said, Mr. Maxwell took the revenue cutter, and visited the Atlantic stores before seven o’clock in the morning, and, to his astonishment, found the faithful custodes absent He very quietly waited tll nine o’clock, when the officers arrived. The Collector coolly took their names, and suspended them, saying ,with Othello, | “No longer shall thou be an officer of mine; a | faithless officer is a useless thing.” We under- stund six of the officers are placed “hors de com- tat,” and, if whut’is said be trae, the Collector | cerved them nght. | future. | on his arrival in this great metropohs, was lodged, under the auspices of the corporation, in the Irving Hotel of this city—a hotel which for superb ar- rangements, choice wines, exquisite eursine and admirable management, under the regrme of D. D. Howard, Fsq., is well known to ali distinguish. ed men throughout the country, and beyond its limits. Before he took his departure from his comfortable quarters in that elegant establishment, the pious futher could not resist the impulse of his pnevolent heart to expresa to Mr. toward his ‘sense of the endeavors to make him comfortable while he was under his roof. Here is a copy of the note which the venerable father addressed to Mr. Jioward a few days after he departed on his mis- sion of benevolence, temperance, and morality, | throughout this siaful country :— New Youx, July 11, 1849, —Previous to my departure from low me to retura my sinew | for the uniform kindness and attention I ee expe- | Fieneed at your hands. The order and accommodation of your extensive establishment demands the expression of my Warmest approbation.

The approbation which the venerable father thus | bestows on the Irving House is no more thaa what | itis entitled to, We entirely concur, and so can | thousands and thousands, in the same sentiiments. | We know what that table 1s. We have tasted of those luxuries which attracted the attention, but not the palate, of Father Mathew ; but we have al- | | ways taken due care to be temperate in the use of | | all those good things which are furnished at the | Irving House. The certificate here given, while it does no more than justice to the talent and capa- city with which the Irving House is conducted, speaks, in the highest terms, of the taste of ihe corporation, in making the selection which they did of that house, in which to lodge the most bene- | volent man of his age { Tux Suxpay Liqvor otwithstandiag all the threats of the Mayor, the grog-shops were open yesterday in considerable wbuadance. la the 2d ward there were fifty-five cases, which are to be reported to his Honor to-day. In every ward some were open, while others were closed. In the wards up town, scarcely one was closed. Now, it seems to us to be a hardship on those who obey the law, by closing their stores, that others are permitted with impunity to keep them open. Wither all should be compelled to close, or none. The only penalty the luw inflicts is the withdrawal of the license. But it so happens that the Mayor, Alder- men, and Aesistant Aldermen mast all unite about acase before the penalty can be iallieted. Here is the difficulty. The Mayor, it is said, wishes to enforce the law, and eome of the Aldermen wish to co-operate with bi but some will not, fearing they nught endanger their nomination next elee- tion. Surely it would have been better to aecertain this in time, before a bratum fulmen was iseved, the only efleet of which wul be, to briny the law and the authorities into coatempt. We foresee very clearly that the law will be enforced, and that Sunday liquor will flow as usual. Ta fuet, this exercise cf authority is generally regarded by the people as an interference with their personal liber. ty; and the tendency will be, to make them drink more, pethops, on Sunday than on any other day in the seven, out of sheer opposition.
