Let us wait patiently for the meeting of Congress. We are bound to have a change. Turk Mercnants ano rug Comina Evection.— The merchants of New York, as a class, are pro- bably the most important and influential body of our citizens; afd on the eve of every election, the leading polinciuns of all parties feel extremely anxious to ascertain to what side they willleaa, and for what parry they will vote. At this purticu- Jur juncture, this question is peculiarly iaterestiog, because the reeult of the election which will take plece in this State on Tuesday next, will have a great influence on other States, as well as indi rectly on the administration of he general govera- ment at Washington, lt is well known that the merchants of all our Ailantic cities have become tired of what inay be termed old whig rule, and are leas wedded to pare We have an i recently in Pennsylvania; tor itis well Keown that the mercantile interests of Pailudelphia threw their whole weight into the deroeratc seale, Prom all that we can learn, we think 1 highly probable that take a similar course next Tuesday, in our eleetion, Nor it be a matier of surprise that they bave determined todese, From the tise whea the cabmet were mstailed at the expital, to the present hour, they lave been annoyed and mortified beyoad measure, iv Dansweting their business at the Castom House ; | and they have been kept in a state of coastant tree | pidation and wlarm, by the buayliog manner ia j which Mr. Clayton and his associates have ma- bod not arrived at Halifax yesterday afte Our overland express had not reached Sackvile when our paper was sent to press this moraing = {t we thovglt that she injuries the Hibernia sustained when she was last here may have detainetl her at Liverpool General The Washington Unim coutinues, without abatement, its violent assaults upon General Tay- Jor. It continues to recite his pled ges, and to hold him responsible for Lwing, C layton and company, jhough wiliully wrong in its conclusions. What are the facts? General Taylor entered upon his administration with a policy distinctly laid down ¢ acceptable. [twas the manly policy of an honest, independent administration of the goverament, u- Terpective of party schemes or party schemers: The proclamation ot euch a policy effected the re- volution of °48, and the country looked forward with anticipations of satsfeetion to its fulfilment. The people had become tired of the abominations of the “spoils” system—they had suffered suffi- ciently from itin the plundeging rogues among the perty scavengers pensioned upon the Treasury ; and there was some Boor zround of reason, in the wodeubted honesty of General Taylor, to hope that he would rides and establish a better state of things. What is the result? A failure—a failate from the stait—to this point, acistressing and mortifying failure. ‘The administretion, thus far, have scarcely prevented a cingle redeeming feature, a solitary | bueh to the relief of the eye, ia the waste and howling wilderness through which we have been conducted. What tthe reason? Why is this so? Is General Tay lve dietwucet? Eas he any purty ends to secomplish 1” Has he any “ party schemes to build up?” With such a fuir prospect betore him, and under such a conjuncture of good cir- cumstances, bow is it that the President has suf- fered bimeelt to be surrounded by the enemy, and all his ou'pocts, nsgaziases, and supplies in their possession ? These questions are easy of solution. General Taylor 18 an honest man. His wishes and inten- tions are consistent with his pledges to the people. But, from the necessities of his inexperience in go- | veroment ativirs, public men, and party schemers, he has been cempelled, to a great extent, to intrust the conduct of the several departments to his seere- taries. From his want of knowledge of the offices seekers and the office-holders, he was compelled to leave the subject of appointments to his cabinet. Confidence in his advisers is one of the character- istics of an honest man, Pare and disinterested in his own intentions, such a man is npt to rely too far vpon the honesty of others. This is precisely the care with General Taylor, When taken up for the Presidency, he trankly confessed his want of exper ence for the office—fortorty years he had been 1p the military service on the froutiers—he had been excluded from all association with pohtics and politicrens ; and he appealed, on this ground, to the pubhe generosity, if the p would tasist upon | his aeuming the Presidency. Believing his cab net to be honest and ¢ as himself, and | potseseed of amore mtimate knowledge of the cCutice of their ceveral in them a contid i terested Jeporiments, he has reposed which they have betrayed | end abuced shamefully, divgracefully, and ruin- ously. This expluing the feilure of tne administration, | the confidence of the President, ond the faith- leseness of his cabinet. The Secretary of State, in bis ctoyed mismanegen ot our foreiga relation d exovgh; but the detestable prosertptions and pusting system of nepotein pursued by | ng, Collamer, and Meredith, have been a | diegsece to the government, and an outrece | epen the people, The bloody boteher of the Hom Department turns outa family to starve to make room for a nephew ore cansiv, unt a regiment of | the firm ere quartered upon the treasury, The head of the Tressury bestows his offices to his own creatures, regardless of public justice or party @leime.

Th Pledges of the Precedent, in out a thave violated the | roseripti parallel mus barbarity, and have filled the » w ne- rations of their kih @ to the gust of all | honest men The popularity of General Taylor was not quite strong enough to bear euch aba nd miserable huck of tomboolery, treachery, » ig ; end this is our explanation of the fulure But Geveral Taylor may yet redeem kims-if and shia pledges. He still haw the confideace of ihe | people wth the meeting of Congress, his ww | sage, defining his home and foreign poley, will | prove his adkerence to firet principles.

Th a complete | derangement of Custom House business, and an | epnoyan und Waste of time tothe merchants, ofa | very grievous kind. ‘The coerse of the cabinet in | our foreign relations, has not been unobserved by | the merchants. They have seen the members of that bedy, with professions of peace coutiaually on their lps, incesseatly engaged, appurently with & ext gusto, in endeavoring to kick up a fuss with | almost every foreign mation, They have had /botlung but difficulties, and dissensions, aad | rumors of war, ever since they came into power, well calculated to eflect a derangement of all | commercial calculations, and of course to injure | in & corresponding degree, the foreign trade of the | country, and those connected with it, wall its rami- fleations, erpecially the merchants themselves.— | No wonder, then, that their brethren in Philadel- | phia condemmed and rebuked the conduct of the cobinet in this respect. But the merchants ef New York have. still further reason for not sustaining whig rule in this State end city, in the approaching election. They | are Jorge property holders, and, of course, large tex payers. Grievous as was the taxation uader demociatic rule, it has become more grievous and burdensome under that of the whigs. The publie meneys huve been wasted, thrown away, and actually shovelled out of the treasury, in a most | reckless manner, ate ime when there never exist- | ed greater necectity for economy and a good ad- ministration of our municipal affairs. The conse- | quence of this has been, that the assessment list | for the next pear shows an increase of taxativa of | half a mill on of dellars—it amounting to the sum of three million three hundred thousand dollars, | as we are informed, for the year 1850. Toking all these things together, there is no wonder, then, that the merchants of New York have determined upon supporting the demeerats in | the ensumg election; not thet they desire to idea. | | uly themeelves with that party, but that they wish | to rebuke and declare against the policy pursued by the cabonet at Washingtea, and the waste and extiave gance of the whig authorities in this eity. Tur Orrnine or Canau Sruaer.—It will be res collected that, some time since, we published an extraoidinary bill of charges, furnished by the commissioners ia the matter of the opening of Cunaletreet. As it was handed in, the sam total amounted to @24,202 25. Of course, this sum took every one by surprise, and the bill was referred by | the Supreme Court, to Mr. Bosworth, tor taxation. ‘The claimants appeared before that gentleman, und, aller bearing such objections as could be made under the eweumetances, the proof bet: side of those claiming the costs, he ded snog sum of $10,566 67 therefrom, paid to the ce 5 53, $214,002 Th t) which the me © tax-payers ia expended.

We not be surprised i Wit be still turther reduced. worth's wi New Berxswicx Comine To a Heap ~A writer from St. Joba’, N. B., has recently addressed « letter to the editor of the Montreal Courier, in which he saye, “ that the feeling for independence | and annexation is more widely spread” in New Diunewick than he believes it to be in Canada. "The only difficulty in the way 1, our leading men hetitate about taking a bold stand. Bat the stand onee taken, the thing will rapidly gather head.” Don't be in too much ef a hurry. Take Waita little, till we diepose of California and New Mexico, Then Canada and Cuba may come together; but Nova Scotia and New Brane wick can only be counterbalanced by Jamaica, or another slice of Mexico. We must ehare and share about, or there will be trouble in the family. Don't let annexation come to a head too fast in New | Bronswiek, or it may fizzle out before the time comes. Keep cool. Taxes ron rie Year 1860.—What w the reason thet the tex-payers of this city cannot see the as eeserment roll for the year 18507 It is really too bad that people who are desirous of suving the dis- count of six per ceot, which they ean get under the Jaw by paying in advance, cannot have the opportunity of doing eo. We very much fear that the reason the tux list is kept concealed, is that it is so enormous and eo mach heavier than that of any previous year, that the whig corporation | fear, if it were published, the tax-payers would be thunder-etrock. It has beew called for cften enough, end if it be not made public before the day of election, our voters can well guess the reas ton, end ect accordingly. Out with that tax bill, No ehufllingont with it at once, or take the con- Distixavismen Annivata—Hon. Robert J.

Iteppezrs that he has been very successful, for his list contains the names of a great muny persons, who have subscribed ten, fifteen, twenty, and thirty dollars each, There is no doubt that the individual in question will collect some two or thee thousand dollars before the day of election, Now this is certainly a very strange proceeding for Mr. Maxwell, the Collector, to tolerate. Here we see one of his attaches neglecting his duties, and iunbing about town collecting movey forthe sup- port of the whigs in the comimy election, after pab- Hiehipg in his organ throughout the country, that he had called all the Custom House officers toge- ther, and directed them, under the penalty of di- missal, to participate no further in elections than depositing their votes. But the trath is, Mr. Max- well is only an anitable antediluvian, aud has per nuatted himself to be used by whig politicians as an instrument to carry their puryoses and objects. Ths was manifested in the course which he pur- sued in moking removals and appointments con- tury to the pledges and promises of Gen.

But we shall see how all this will end. Opening OF THE Jraiian Ovena Skason.—Max Maretzek, the new manager of the Ltahan Opera, commenced the reason ‘Thursday evening last atthe Aster Place Opera house, with © Lucia de Lammamoor”’ The house was full, fashionable and splendid in the extreme. The several artists performed their ts with credit and efficiency, aod the mght passed away in the most pleasant | Way imagivable It was, however, more a display of tuelionable dress, female beauty, gay eavaliers, and white-kid dandies, than any thiog in the musi- cal line. The old ariists of the troupe, male and female, were well received and kindly remember- ed, The new artists will require alittle time aud cppertupity betore the fashiunble dvettanti can reach the highest state of rapture in regard to their merits. The ltwhan Opera has been again commenced as anexperiment. Is there any chance of its success in this city?) From all we eanteara of the skill of the manager, of the character of his arrangemenis, of the taste of the public, and of the temper of the dilettantt, we are inclined to think that the pre- sent attempt, to establish the opera in New York, will be succeseful. We have seen many attempts to establish the Italian Opera here, all of which have been unsucceseful—the last attempt being the meet melancholy and silly of the whole lot within our recollection, which goes back to the last thirty years in the theatrical annals of New York. The second representation will be given to-night, on which occasion a better judgment can be form ed on the qualifications of the artists, and the pros- pects of the season. Fug Arts—Tuk Two Unsions.—The Iaterna- tional Art Union, which has given such a terrible ic to the American Art Union, opened its col- lection of paintings the other night at the Alham- bra, a very fine exhibition room, somewhere in the neighborhood of Niblo’s Garden, in Broadway, ond net far from the hall of its great rival, the Amenean Art Union. According to the eecounts which we have heard of this new exhibiuon, we thould not be suiprived to eee the great ude of emuteurs and lovers of the fine arts gomg in the rioun Ast Union Muwy of the pai | now concern are said to be splendid and beautifal he extieme, and very enticing to the fashionable world.
