It was brought down by the Oregon to Panama, and by the Faleon to New Orleans. The ounts that previously reached usby the Crescent City are eonfirmed.

The Progress of Republicanism @hreatencd Danger to Republicanism tn America, The latest accounts from Europe, conveyed tous — by telegraph,and brought by the America,somewhat | and daily press, who are galled by the superior ens | eonfirm those melancholy anticipations which had been excited by recent events. Clouds and dark- nes, at this moment, surround the fortunes of re publicanism in Europe. Italy nas fallen ; and it is probable that the fall of Hungary will follow, but there is yet hope for that brave nation. The despot is yet too strong for the people. The poor straggling masses have everything against them ‘They have justice, and right, and courage, and a heroic love of liberty on their side; but their foes have disciplined armies, and munitions of war, and banded powertul aristecracies, and soulless fiaan- cial interests, all arrayed against the popular cause, but the Hungarians will die gaine to the last. The part which the present government o the French republic has played m the drama of European afluirs, is well calculated to inspire feel- ings of mingled disgust and apprehension. [t is very probable that im due process of time, Louis Napoleon, who is gifted, it would ap- pear, with a great deal more tact and cua. ning than he formerly got credit for, will so eontrol the opposing factions in the Assembly, ebanging the whole structure of the goverament, by the establishing of a consulate for life, which eould be readily converted, in its turn,into an impe. nil dynasty, Alas! alas! Is this to be the result ef that glorious stroggle which ended in the ex- pulsion of Louis Philippe and the establishment of | a republic on the ruins of the former corrupt and tyrannical eystem ? Are all the hopes of the friends ‘of treedom and the human race,throughout Europe, and every land, which were excited by the burst- ing forth of the revolution of February, 1843, to be thus blasted forever? So it would seem, fromthe present complexion of afiairs throughout the con- ment of Europe. How has this changed aspect ef events occurred? What have been the maligna ifluences which have blighted the blossoming hopes of the friends of freedom? We are by no means left in the dark as to those evil influences it w to the violence—the folly—the madness, 0, the knavery, of the socialists or red republicans of France, t we must mainly trace the reactionary spirit that now threatens to establish despotism ia Europe more firmly than ever. This conviction forces itself irresistibly on the minde of a}! thoughtfal and impartial observers ;and it isa significant fectZthat the New York Tribune —a journal specially devoted to the propagation of those disorgunixing and ultra political doe. trines which form the creed of the red repub- lieans of Paris—is at this moment moat indus- triously and zealously engaged im an effort to relieve its associates on the other side of the | Atlantic, from those charges which are now heap- ed vpon them by the true friends of republican liberty. But this effort 1 vain. has watched the progress of events in Karp for the last twelve months eye, eon resist the conclusion that the French socialists have furnished the enemies of repub- licanism with a platform on which, by their out- eries about order and the danger of anarchical confusion, blood end massacre, they have been ENTS, (renewed every morning, and to to effect important alterations ia the constitu- | tion of the republic, end obtain a formal vote | No man who | with an impartial | red republicanism in Europe, and black republi- | canism in the United States, the prospects of genu- | ne hiberty are gloomy enough to oppress the most | sanguine friend of human freedom. Musicat Apventurers—Srrakoscu, THE Pia- wist.—It seems that our amiable contemporary, Greeley, who narrowly escaped expulsion from the House of Representatives, in consequence of fubri- cating falsehoods, is, about these days, amusing morality, and delivermg addresses on law, and probably te gospel. {nm a recent letter, in his jour- nal, we find the tollowmg paragraphs, concerning Strakosch, the pianist:— On Saturday evening a German band gave a fine con- cert, which was followed by a brilliant bail, at the Uni. ted States Assembly Rooms; aud to-night Strekosch ives his second coucert, This delightful artist bas en some fifteen months in the United States, aud in all that period | have bad the pleasure of his acquaint. | ance. High as is bis reputation as # pianist, be is hardly less distinguished for the grace of his manners, and his honorable character. He is everywhere a favorite of the j Most elegant and accomplished society, aud he secured | atan early day the professional adwiration and the | personal respect which enabled him to refuse that pay- | ment of black mail, which many foreigners have been | led to believe was # condition of suceuss here. No one | bas ever been able to say of Mr Strakoseh, that he hag | violated # decorum, or a morality; and an attack made bpon him a few days ago, in a scurrilous print of New York—whatever mercenary purpose it was designed to serve wil be injurious only to ite author and pub- sher.”? ‘The print to which Greeley refers is probably the Herald; and the “ attack made upon Strakosch” alludes to some general remarks upon musical ad- | | venturers which our Saratoga correspondeat made | Europe | in one of his letters. Asfor the allusion to the pay- | ment of black mail, decorum, and morality, they are only a part of the same miserable game which has been played by the penny-s-liners of the Sunday terprise, talent and success of those connected with | the New York Herald. The public thoroughly understand the motives and meaning of theee litle | flings, and they are not worthy of notice. But, in reference to Strakosch, we have a word or two to | say—a word of explanation, When Strakoreh ar- | tived in this country, he was introduced to us as a | modest, amiable, and talented young artist. Ls appearance and manners were rather prepossessing, and at first created a good deal of interest in our | breast for his snecess; and we took particular pains to assist him in his professional pursuits. We even transcended in some degree the usual amount of aid which has been extended to these wandering minstrels by any journal, here or else- | where. But, after a time, we discovered that our | kindness had been bestowed upon a very unworthy | object; for we discovered certain characteristics ! in the individual, which excited nothing bat detes- | tation and disgust; and from that period we ceased, of course, to bestow any attention upon one who | exhibited so much that was disreputable in his con- | duet. We must be somewhat explicit; for this Stra- kosch is a representative ot a numerous class, and | the honor and respectabilty of American society demand a direct exposure of those who abuse our hospitalities.

Commereial affairs during the week previous to the | sailing of the America, presented no feature requiring | particular remark, Trade prospects generally conti- nue to improve rather than otherwise, and appear- ances indicate thet business will continue active and healthy. Accounts from the manufacturing districts continue satisfactory, and in extton and woollen goods a fair bu- siness is going forward, Brendstuffe, in all the principal markets, had con- tinued in limited demand during the week, and prices | of most articles have a downward tendency, which results mainly from increased eonfidence, which now amounts almost to a certainty, that the crops through- out Great Britain will, under the continued influence of favorable wenther, meet the highest expectations of the public, ‘After the arrival of the Hibernia, a speculative de- mand for cotton sprung up: but the subsequent receipt of intelligence by the overland mail tended to impart a Joss active tone to the trade, and on Thursday and Fri- | uy the market was very quiet, and for common quali ties of American was a shade easier.

It Is certain that up to the hour of the very latest in- telligence from the seat of war, there are reasons for entertaining the greatest confidence in the strength and glory of the Hungarlans, who, under the enthust~ asm created by Kossuth are routing in all directions the formidable armaments of two stupendous despot- | lems. tists, male and femele, was recerved in this city by several respectable families, in a manner which no | doubt cecasioned no little astouisament to the | mean nature of this itinerant musician, All this was quite characteristic of the hospitality and li- | berality of our people; but, no doubt, it puzzled | Sarakosch, as it had puzzled scores of others like j him. Accustomed, in theirown couatries, to aayo- | crate with disreputable persons and vagaboads— driven to all sorts of mean contrivances to geta | hving—oceasionally getting a guinea for singing a song or playing an overture at a sirée—these ma- sical artists are quite bewildered when they come to America and are treated like ladies and gentle- men. Some of them are grateful, and have sease | enough to appreciate this generous hospitality ; | | others, true to their mstincts, abuse it, and stand | revealed in their true charseter. Of this latter | | cliss is Strakorch. After receiving kind and hos- | | tment in several families of thia city, the fellow actuully expressed himeelf in other quar- ters in the most disrepectiul terms of the females of the very famulies from whom he had received | | those attentions of which he was so entirely wa- | | worthy! Jt was on the discovery of these dis | gusting traits in the character of Strakosch, that | we at once dismissed him from our presence, or | | dered him out of our ofice, excluded his name and | pretensions from the coluinns of this journal, and | set him down for ever as a dishonorable and con- | | temptible creature, who had been guilty of one of the grosvest offences which can be perpetrated | against the sanctities and of soetal lite. t Such is the personage whom to society as a man of honor! of his “waif.” We know that these « have curious ideas about social intercourse. for the musical talents of Shakoech, they are quite | of a common order.

Bem bas entered Zoruber amidst the acclamations og the people, and iv now at the head of 100,000 men, ia complete porrerslon of the south of Uungery. Bem writes from Birtritz, on the 21 ult , to the effect that after having advanced in the Grealsago, Vasch- Deag, Eljafola and Besloetz, he kept the Russians shut up in the Bosji, without having taken a single man from the army operating near Carlsburg or agalust the Walle The Hungarian governmont writes from ilermanstadt, under date of the Jd of Joly, ghat the Runeias have been foreed to retreat to Cron- stadt. Bem was preparing to attack that eity on the Sth or Sth of July. ‘The seat of the Hungarian goverament had beon tranrported to Arad, on the 14th of July, This last clreumstance proves the assurance of their hopes to flulch with the Russians in Transylvania, aud. on the other band, it confirms the defeat of Jeliachich; becw if the army of the South wns still formidable, the Hu: garian govern t would never dare to select the city of Arad for ite residence, as it would be placed between two fires, t rit whieh | : ; ; enabled to create that reactionary spirit whieh | eounis and superiors among the inferior artists of |, pxepenaTe RATTLE KETWEEN THE WNGARIANS now threatens the utter dowofall of republicanism im the ancient world. “ Down with the red re- publicons !"—* Down with anarchy!” is the ery— bet “Down with democracy!” “Down with the people!” “Dawn with liberty!’ ewells the same chorus of the foes ot freedom, and gives to it its true interpretations. Not at this day can we estimate the evil which has been wrought by these socialiets, combining, as they do, within their ranks, every degree of hu- man ignorance, folly, and iniquity—from the wild fanaticiem of the blind enthusiast to the pro- | found treachery of the designing knave. Pro- ably the course and policy of these red republicans have delayed the establishment of free popular government in Europe for a century, if net for ever. By their extravagance, folly and ieentionsnees, they have brought back the minds at men to the superstitions of past ages, and re- vived the hopes of the interested friends of feudal ‘and monarchical systems throughout the world. But this is not all. Not content with blasting the prospects of repudliceniem in Lurope, these anarebists have attempted, through their organs and disciples here, to pursue euch a course as muy eventually lead to the destruction of the great pattern republic on this side of the Atlaotie. ln this very city, the metropolis of the Union, we have a journal which every day advocates the | wildest, the most barbarous end the bloodies Freneh eocialiem.

The bulletin states that, on the 18th, the Hungarian army imarched upon Wait- zen, man regiment, which, according to former orders, fell back as the enemy advanced. At night, Gon. Gorgey bad cecured a strong position before Waiteon, His | army was estimated at 44,000 mon, with 120 pleces of artillery. Gorgey was at ence attacked by the ndvaneed guard ofthe Rursians, under G but his powerful ar- tillery foiled all attempts hot were made to dislodge him, The cannonade on cither side was very revere, end the Hungarian cavalry executed several violent ebarges upon the Russians. On the 16th, the main body of the Russian army was brought up, and on the 17th the Ruselans attacked ‘Waitzen, and, notwithstanding a desperate resistance, the Ilungarians were compelled to evacuate the town, with the lows of two standards, two cannon, aad five hundred prisoners. In course of the purenit, it was foand that ovly the rear guard of the Hungarisns bed been engaged, and that their main army had marched to the north.

Serdinian Affaire THE TREATY WITH AUSTRIA. The Sardinians, perbaps with a view to favor the Hungarians, have been delaying from day to day the execution ef the treaty of peace with Austria, whereby a large body of the Austrian forces have been compell- ed to remain in Lombardy, whilst they might be ad- yantageourly employed in Hungary. Prince Schwarzeuburg has sent into Sardinia @ pe- remptory demand to sign the treaty of peace in four dwys, or otherwise the war will be revived, This sudden step has agitated the French and English cabinets, and complicates the pending disputes. The king of Sardinia, in his distress, has, it 1s said, appealed to the President of France to arrange the ex- isting diffeulties with Austria, There is a report from Paris, said to be founded on a telegraphic despateh to the French government, that the Sardinians have final- ly accepted the terms imposed by Austria. Tho report, however, is not fully credited. Vente ‘THE SIEGE CONTINVED—URAVERY OF THE VENITIANS.

The whole assemblage, packed together to suffocation, rose as one man, and never, to use the well remembered expression of Byron, “ was the yell of war” in London ' Tavern shouled more vehomently. ‘The petition agreed to by the meeting has been lald before Varliament, and elicited an interesting debate pon the affairs of Hungary.

The Elections, Below we give the latest returns of the elections held within the last few days in the States of Indiana, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Ken- tucky. It will be perceived that the accounts are very favorable to the democratic party ; several of the whig strongholds, particularly in Indiana and Tennessee, showing strong symptoms of political re-action. The returns from Indiana are favorable to the election of Wright, the democratic candidate for Governor, and would also seem to indicate a de- mocratic gain in the Congressional representation . In the Old North State, also, there appears to be aslight reaction in favor of the democrats, ia the probable election of Lane, in the Sth district, over Stanley (whig.) In Tennessee, Trousdale (dem.) is elected Go- veraor by 53,000 majority over Brown, the present incumbent. Ewing (whig) has been elected to Congress from the Nashville district, by 78 majo- rity. Taylor's majority for President in the same district, was 1,351. ‘There is also a demoeratic gain of three members of Congress. From Kentucky we have no returns NORTH CAROLINA. ‘Wansxaron, August 8, 1849, From the 8th district we have all the returns, with the exception of three countier, which @ majority for W. R. Lane, (democrat) of 452. The three counties from which we have nothing definite, Hyde, Tyrell and Carterett, gave, in 1847, a whig majority of 423, 1f there is no change, the election of Lave is certain, by about 24 majority ; but the whigs expect a largo gain in Tyrell, and elaim the election of Edmund Stanley. Wasnuxerox, August 8—P. M. Pitt county gives Stanley (whig), 110, Beaufort 270, Washington 139 and Jones 28—Total 656. In Wayne county, Lane (dem ), has 787, Lenoir 167, Greene 167, and Craven 13—Total, 294. The contest is a elose one, but Lane's chances are considered best. COMPARATIVE LIST. Dist. New Cononrss.

ABRIVAL or THE STEAMSHIPS OREGON AT PANAMA, AND FALCON AT NEW ORLEANS. errr HIGHLY INTERESTING INTELLIGENCE FROM THE GOLD REGIONS. ee Gencral State of the Country. NEWS FKOM THE ISTHMUS, dic. Be. See New Oaxeans, Aug. 3, 1849. The steamship Falcon arrived from Chagres this morning, with fifty-three passengers and one hundred gud +ixty nine thousand and eighty-five dollars, im sprelennd gold dust, on board. She also brings a large maith, ‘Tie Falcon left Chagres on the 25th ult, at noon and made the trip in six days and a half, Mr. G. H. Fell, aged”25 years, a native ot Newbury- port, died on board the Falcon, on the 29th ult, Our attentive correspondent at Panama sends us the following interesting intelligence from California, ro- ceived at that port by the arrival of the steamship Oregon, from Sun Francisoo :— ® Parasta, July 23, 1849, The steamer Oregon has arrived as this port, bring- ing advices from San Francisco to the 2d of July. She brought sixty passengers, and over balf a million in specie and go!d dust. The commercial news is not very encouraging; mor~ chandise and manufactures being drugs in the market. ‘The accounts from the mines are very contradictory, but digging appears to go on briskly, ‘The country is etill subject to martial and lynch Jaw. Many of Stevenson's regiment are prowling about and committing depredations upon the Chilians and Peruvians. Mechanies of every kind aro in great request: and carpenters command any rate of wages. A majority of the vessels that arrive from the United States, go up to Benicia. Twenty vessels from Boston, New York, and Balti- more, bave arrived; among them are the Carolina, an@ the pilot beat Hackstaff. Many vessels thet left the Atlantic cities in January have not yet arrived. Mr. Dimon, of New York, and recently an agent of Mr. Aspinwall, at Monetta, came passenger in the Ore- gon. Notwithstanding the absence of civii law, the coun} try remains in a perfectly tranquil state, and no depre- dations of an atrocious character have occurred, ex- cept those committed by the volunteers. Houses still command enormous rents, and lodging is stated to be as high as three dollars per night, with- out # bed to lie on, There are about four hundred persons now in Pa- nama. The Unicorn and Senstor are expected here, neither of them baving arrived. Since the sailing of the Crescent City six Americang have died on the Isthmus. ‘The steamer Oregon got ashore on her way here, and was somewhat fojured. It is probable her jajuries may detain her herea week for repairs, The Panama is bere at present, and will sail for San Franeisco on the firet of August. Five sailing vessels are in port, for Celifornia, California generally, is very healthy. ‘The parsengers who were transferred to the Alabama, at New Ozleans, are still here, having lost their chanee of preceeding to San Francleco. From cur telegraphic correspondent at New Orleans wo received the following :— ‘We bave gleaned the following iuteresting informa- tion reepecting California, the gold mines and the in- habitants, from # gentlemaa who was passenger in the steamship Falcon, and who comes dicect from San Fran- cisco, The health of San Francisc» is good, and the residents of the towne muck more orderly and quiet than could be anticipated. ‘The gambling houses are all closed on the Sunday, and labor of every kind suspended, although worth from ten to fiteen dollars a day. Four churches have been already built, and another Js daily expected to arrive. ‘The suburbs of the city wear the appearance of the “ tented field,” and San Francisco that of a beleagured town, there being at least two thousand eloth tents large and rmall, belonging to companies and indlrida- tls. in the vicinity of it, ‘The most reepectable Americans reside in the city and there are rarely any difficulties, exeept such as cecasionally arise between the jinmigrants and the natives. The market bas been completely overstocked with goods. Clothing sells for less than in the States. ‘There were Ofty or sixty cargoes of goods remaining unseldin San Francisco. Houses and lumber are very high and searee, A houre, about forty fuet long by twenty feet wide, worth in the States four hundred dollars, would readily sei) here for $2.600, The expense of putting it up would be full seven bundred dollars, Gold coutinues plenty. Large quantities of it were daily arriving. It was selling for $15 per ounce, for specie. und taken at $16 per ounce when received in payment for goods. ‘Though immense quantities of gold bad been found, It wae considered to be anexhausted. . ‘The merchants at San Francisco were generally do- ing a fine business, They charge ten per cent eom- misrion for veiling and guarding the merehandise eon- signed to them. On the Ist of August a convention was to have been held. at which delegates wore to be ehesen, to form a Territorial government, when it is intended to ap- ply for admission into the Uuion. ‘There is a city government already established and in operation. At the mines Lynch law was snpreme, When a man is caught etealing. a jury is chosen, the evidence heard, and should he be convicted, be is immediately flogged ‘and driven away from the mines. The health of the persons working st the mines has been very bad. Fever aad chills have prevailed tom great extent. ‘The sloop-of- war Warren was lying at San Franciveo: the Ohio had gone to the Sandwich Islands. ‘There were about ono hundred reseels lying at San Francisco, entirely deserted by their crews, Sailors were very searee, and wages were from $100" to $200 per month. Nearly every ralior that arrives runs away to the mines and works a while, but soom returns te San Fianeiseo, to take # epree and spend hie money. There were no troops in San Francisee, and none were needed. ‘There wil! be more apecic sent to the United States by the next Englich steamship.
