The steamship Canada arrived at this port yes- terday, and we are consequently enabled to place before our readers this morning, the details, in fall of the European intelligence which she has convey- ed to us. At first sight it would appear that there will be some difficulty between Russia ‘and her allies, and England, in consequence of the Porte having pe- remptorily refused to deliver up the Hungarian | leaderse—Koseuth, Bem, and his associates—who, when they found the Hungarian cause hopeless, wisely sought refuge for themselves in flight to Turkey, seas to escape the fate which awaited them, either by the knout, or some other improved instrument of despotism, for getting rid of its ene- mies, the refusal being countenanced by England, if not instigated by her. We do not apprehend, however, that such will be the case. The shrewd statesmen of England know very well that the condition of that country will not allow of their going te war with such a power as Russi They | may protest, and doubtless will do so, against the demand for the delivery of the gallant patriots, and | Turkey will, no doubt, refuse the demand; which Austria, backed by Russian influence, has made, | but there will be no war, at least, as far as Eag- land 18 concerned. The experiment would in- volve too much risk to tolerate its being tried. | There may bea paper war; but the Austro-Rus- | Sian alliance may, nevertheless, proceed to extre- | mities against ‘lurkey, on the ostensible ground of the refusal of the Porte to deliver up those men, but really for the purpose of carrying out the views whieh, it is well known, the Czar has for a long time entertained towards Turkey. Whatever be the issue of the affair, England will not, we think, | goto war if she can possibly ave’ | out, and, accerding to all accounts, can do so with impunity for a year to come. As long as | the gallant defenders reniain of the mind which they were in at the last accounts, the spirit of liberty in Europe cannot be said to be repressed. We have not, however, much faith that the brave men who are enclosed within it, will continue in | their present attitude for half of that period. | fact, we expect to hear by the next arrival that | they have followed the example of their brethren 4n Peterwardein, and capitulated to the supenor } jowever, they do not surrender, they may keep alive ‘he spirit of | Kberty which has, within the last eighteen months | or two years, shaken the European Continent to , ts centre, and the year 1850 may yet be as marked | | with convulsions and revolutions as 1849, would, according to present indications, be ex- pecting too much. However, we live in an ex- traordinary age, and no man knows whata day may bring forth. . According to the latest telegraphic despatch from London, published in another column, the troubles | between the Pope and France threaten a serious eutbreok. Nous verrom: Govenswent Apvertieing.—Tue Paintin oF | Coxourss.—The policy of the government, hereto- fore, in its printing and advertising, has been to | divide it out among the party presses of the coun- | try, without regard to theyr circulation. Proposals | for contracts for army and navy supplies, the letter | lists of the port offices, advertisements for mai! contracts, for stationery for the several depart- | ments, all the public advertisements, have been be stowed upon the party organs of the party in po wer | mm many cases without subscribers or readers, dependent entirely on goverament jobs for The government has been to thie class of party beggars a eort of union work-house, from which an allowance of soup pendent paupers from day today. Advertisements, | mvolving a lors or saving to the treasury of hun- dreds of thousands of dollars, have been buried away in obscure party journals, whose circulatiog has been limited to their exchanges, and a few copies to the party leaders of the bailiwiek. This evil has not enly occasioned Immense losses to the government, by confining the information o t j public contracts to cliques of party epeculatora, bu! it hes degraded the party presses to the pliable instruments of corruption. The miechiefs of this corrupt system have been of late years, to some extent, abated; but they still exist as the practice of all the departments, more or less. In the passage of the bill of cheap postages, one of the reforms effveted was a provi tion by the law, awarding to papers of the large; tion the list of letters of the fifteen thousand poet off of the country.

The publi¢ interest, . minetration of the publie money, demand that this system of pauperism and corruption, this waste of the public funds on mere leeches on the treasury, should be stopped. The post-office law has applied the entering wedge—let it be driven home till the leg ix opened and the vermin destroyed. Another great engine (high pressure) of corruption, which has diegraced the government for a period coeval with the memory of the oldest inhabitaot, has been the bestowal of the printing of Congress to the organ of the party majority of either house. For twenty years, down to the last Congress, the most exorbitant prices have been paid in this way to the party machines at Washington. A limitation has frequently been fixed to the prices, but an appeal by the printers for damages, has never failed of from twenty to forty thousand jn “extra allowances.” By this system, Galvs and Seaton, as printers to one or both houses, have been paid an aggregate msing half a million, and it is their own fault that they are not as rich as Jews. Blair and Rives, from their work as the pets of Congress, have, like shrewd and practical men, made all they could, pocketed the profits, and retred to country residences, with stock in bank, lands in the West, and hoases and lots in town. Father Ritchie, who had got poor upon the Virginia Legislature, in two years, as printer to Congress, and publisher of the organ of the government advertising, got fat upon it, bought the spiendid town mansion of Cor, coran & Riggs, and lives in the style of a Wall street broker. .His partner, Major Hess, from de- pendence upon the experiment, has become the ord proprietary ef a gold mine, and pays for the price of stocks by telegraph. Such have been the splendid results of the Con- grees printing. Its eosts do not fall short, but ex- ceed, $100,000 for the House, and $60,000 for the Senate, per annum. But the profits have been fat» clear fat. From a speech of Mr. Clayton, in the Senate, in 1847, it appears that Ritchie & Heiss made upon six documents (probably the Presi- dent’s message and documents) a clear profit of $77,000. This had been the secret of changing the system to printing by contract. ‘The soup was too nch. The whigs, feared that Father Ritchie would die of a surfeit, and so in charity they took it away ; and a law was passed, uader which the printing for the last Congress was done by con- tract. The successful bidders took it at a reduc- tion of from twenty-five to thirty per cent upon former prices. They had to purchase materials, and fit up an office, and they lost money, but have a petition pending for the usual “extra allowances,” heretofore paid. The work was not done to the satisfaction ef either house. Their complaints were frequent of bad paper, bad printing, and unreasonable delays. The fault was % the contract. But it will probably be made a pretext for an attempt at the next session to restore the old plan of favoritism. Several young printers have contracted for the work upon reduced prices, and, if they are permitted to begin, any defect or irregularity will be an excuse for suspending the bargain. The organs at Washington are hungry for their accustomed broth. They have tlfir friends, and there will be some log-rolling to get it. But the abuse should never be revived. If good and prompt work cannot be secured by contract, there is yet another plan of killing off the old system of public plundering for the party presses. Let Congress erecta national printing office, and do its own work present system of government adver- tising, excepting a single feature, is a nuisance; and the old plan of Congressional printing is a monstrous system of plunder, bribery, and corrup- tion. Who will undertake the reform? Will not the Premdent recommend it inhie message? Will jot rome member of the House make the measure the ladder ot his own promotion? Itis good stock for the White House, and these abuses must be | corrected. We shall leave the book printing, for the present, to Masea Greeley.
