The steamsmp Cambria arrived at Halifax at five o’clock on Thursday evening, and about one- half of our news dispatch was received in Boston yesterday afternoon, when the wires between that eity and Portland ceased operations. Owing to the interruption on the dine between here and Boston, none of the news could be des- | patched to this city, and the above information is all that could be sent over that line. It took from seven till nine o’clock last evening to ascertain even that the C. had arrived, and that a portion of her news had been received at Boston. ‘This is provoking; but when we take in conside- ration that thejaterruption on the line to Boston is the result of carelessness, 1t is worse than pro- voking. We learn from the office of the Boston company, that for the last forty-eight hours their line has been interrupted by the contact, at several points, of the new Bain line. This has been the result of neglect and recklessness in the construction of the Bain line. There is, certainly, width of territory sufficient for the erection of half a dozen separate telegraph lines between this city and Boston, far enough apart to preclude allinterference with each ether. But the Bam line has been the occasion, as we learn, of large losses, by interruption to the old Boston line, insomuch that a gang of men has been sent out by the old line, with positive orders to cut the new line clear at every point of either eontact or danger of contact, hereafter, with the old line, without further parleying or apology. We should think that this would settle the business for the future; but it don’t give us the Cambria’s news. We made an effort to obtain the C.’s advices over House’s wires; but the atmospheric electricity interrupted operations on that line, between Hart- ford and Boston. The news wil! probably reach us this morning, and will be published immediately after it 1s ree ceived. News at ‘The steamship Ohio, from Havana, the Empire City, from Chagree, the Great Western, from Ber- muda, and the Cherokee, from Savannah, are due to-day at this port. The Ohio and Empire City will, probably, bring us a month later intelligence from California and the South Pacific ; the Great tail, legs or bristles, of the animal. It 1s sucha confused cutting up and mixing in of odds and ends, as to defy all attempts to make it out. New York politics and politicians are more a mystery than ever. The only thing positively certain— about which there can be no mistake—is, that oysters and whitewash hold the balance of power, and that these and the colored aristocracy— whigs to the backbone—have decided the elec- tion. Downing is master of the field. Let Down- ing, therefore, under the title of Prince of Shrews- bury—the great locale of oysters—be forthwith appointed by Mr. Clayton on a foreign mission to Faustin I., Emperor of St. Domingo. Mr. Webb, for his services, can take some other high mission. But is it not possible to extract something out of the result, for the comfort of the cabinet? We have tried it again and again; but-it is past our power of analysis. From sixty to one hundred thousand legal voters—free white men, the great majority men of business—have probably abstained from voting on either side. The organs of the cabinet have appealed to them to sustain the whig party, in order to vindicate the present whig cabi- net, who have violated the inaugural of Gen. Tay- lor. But these sixty or one hundred thousand vo- ters were deaf to all appeals, and remained at their fire-sides, indiflerent and unmoved. They had no sympathy with the cabinet, its proscriptions, or its diplomacy. They felt that neither General Tay- jor’s personal nor political character was involved in the issue, and they staid at home, leaving the white whigs and black to fight it out among them- selves. But whatever may be the want of respect thus ex- hibited to the cabinet, it 18 evident that the public confidence in General Taylor is undiminished, and that he maintains the same popularity which, a year ago, elected him President of the United States. Itis equally certain that this confidence has been withheld trom the cabinet for their vio- lation ef his pledges, their shameless nepotism, their bad appointments, and the imbecility and empty fuss which have marked their foreign policy for the last six months. Don’tforget Down- ing’s famous oyster saloons and cellars—No. 5 Broad street, and No, 690 Broadway. The Norton Indictment—Singular Deve- lopements about Ned Buntline, Ia our Sessions report of yesterday, there was a statement relative to William Norton, a lawyer, who keeps an office on the corner of Pine and Nassau streets, and who has recently been in- dicted by the Grand Jury for a shocking libel on the cbaracter of Miss Crean, a young lady of this city, living with and under the protec- tion of her mother and brother for years past. The libel was published in Judson’s paper, called Ned Bunthne’s Own. This Norton appeared in court, pleaded not guilty, and demanded a trial; and yet, in the next breath, he wished to delay the case, by making application to collect testimony in San Francisco—an application which, we believe, is set down for argument in a few days. It willbe recollected that Judson himself was indicted for this seli-same libel, and that, on a for- mer occasion, the court denied a similar application to collect testimony in San Francisco, under the impression that such a motion was a mere excuse to postpone the trial. It is highty probable that the court will take the same view of the present appli- cation, and deny the motion now revived, since the real and original offender has been discovered and brought before a court and jury to answer for his offence. Whatever may be the result of this apptication, itis now proper that some discrimin: tion should be made in the criminality of those who were concerned in the general offence involved in | the indictment. We have had placed in ourhands extracts from Judson’s paper, called Ned Buntline’s Own, and also from the National Police Gazette, giving a very striking and curious exposition of the progress and purposes of the original attacks made on the young lady in question, and which, it ap- pears, Judson was led into merely by his blunder- ing incapacity to judge of human villany, rather than from any decided criminality of intention on his own part. The following articles, which have not been brought to our attention till recently, will explain this strange and malicious business, inte which Norton, the lawyer, mveigled the unfortunate man Judson, who is now suffering for his offences on Blackwell's Island, and who really deserves com- miseeration, now that the truth 1s out :— ‘Western nearly a month later news from all the West India islands ; the Cherokee, a day later from the South. We are in hopes to give the mews by these four steamers, as well as that by the Cambria, in to-morrow’s Herald. The Preskient—The Cabinet and the Electton, ‘The cabinet organs at Washington, after the re- peated disasters of the whig party in other States, have been quite anxious, and have pleaded hard, for a little comfort from New York. They have got it. This consolation, however, comes froma very curious quarter, being the same from which our up-town fashionables and down-town epicures procure their fattest oystere, their most exqusite whitewash, and their best blacked boots. It 1s the “gemmen ob color” to whom the cabinet are andebted for the morsel of comfort they have got; it is the colored aristocracy of this metropolis, dealers in shell-fish and whitewash, descended in | eurved'lines from the kings and princes of Africa, that has saved the whig party from a most terrible defeat, and given consolation to Mr. Clayton and his adorers. ble colored citizens of the city and State, the whigs would have been routed, from Sandy Hook to Niagara Falls. Such, in fact, 1s the curious result of this curious | election; and the cabinet are quite welcome to seach consolation they may squeeze out of it. They must be satisfied with the oysters, including a little brandy and water for Mr. Clayton, smoothly te wash them down. The distinguished colored leader and caterer, Mr. Downing, F. R. S., (fried, Foasted and stewed.) 690 Broadway and 5 Broad street, has shown up superbly in the oratory and oyster line. Tis associate leaders at the late meet- megs in Putnem Hall, are equally au fart in the @ause of whigism and whitewashing; and the cas binet, eepeciolly Mr. Clayton, may stand in need of a little whitewash before the meeting of Con- grees. They can have it. Votes, oysters, white- wash and brandy, will help the cabinet along till then Apart from these consolations to the cabinet, the result of this most curious election is inexplicable. lt is #0 curious, #0 strange. ny—it has thrown upon the surface so many origi- nal pieces of timber, with the broken scraps of old lumber —it is eo mixed up and divided, that neither of the two great parties can claim a triumph. Both the whig and democratie organs, instead of re- Jeicing over what is gained, are squabbling and quarrelling among themselves over what has been Jost. The only party in the contest who are per- feetly happy in the result, is the colored aristocracy or the oyster and whitewash “gemmen.” They alone are entitled to the glory. Downing and the esolored voters have decided the day, and Downing and the colored voters ought to celebrate the | triumph Seriously, however, it is envy to detect, in this | election and its results, the seeds of future dif- | fioulties to both the great parties of the day—elr ments of disorganization, rupture, and disunion, to the republic at large. Itis adrawn game, from stem tostern. It decideenothing wpon our State and na- tional politics. It decides nothing in respect to our city affairs, unlees it be that our ertizens donot ink they are yet eufficiently taxed and plundered by the Common Council—but they hope they will be.

Judson and his principal associates furnish sufficient explana- nation and repentance for the course they have pursued. The ingenious malice of the fellow Norton, and the way in which he imposed his shocking falsehoods on Judson and the press, are, however, only a part of the same game which has been carried on towards Mr. Bennett, the proprie- tor of the Herald, and his family connections, by a certain portion of the newspaper press in this city, for nine years last p Let us explam. For the last eight ornme years, a certain portion of the conductors of the press of this e:ty, out of mere jealousy at the success of Mr. Bennett’s enterprise, and unable to find any thing im his private life to assail, have uttered their malicious and atrocious libels on Mrs. Bennett and her femily connections, in every variety of wey. The origin of this system of satanic literary enterprise in the columns of the newspaper press, may, we think, be traced to a person generally known as M. M. Noah, who formerly broke down in several newspapers, and who now enjoys a sinecure office in the Custom House, secretly given to him by Mr. Maxwell, the present Collec- tor, without the knowledge or the consent of the President of the United States, whose high moral tone would revolt at such an act. The same system to reach Mr. Bennett, by at- tacks on his wife and family, was adopted by Moses Y. Beach, wno 1s well known for his financial rasealities, for the last few years, in this community. He was indicted, convicted, and too leniently punished for the offence; but he, and some of his associates, entirely escaped for their impositions of their Plainfield Bank paper on the community. Mr. Bennett, together with Mrs. Benaett, his wife, and family, have despised all those modes of assaulting their private character and reputa- tion; and have never, for one instant, turned from their high and honorable purposes, on account of the aggregated meanness and malevolence which have been used against them for the last few years. They are independent, fearless, resolute, in their own honorable principles and purposes, and they despice their slanderers and their attacks. Latterly, this game of meanness and maleyo- lence has been somewhat modified, as appears by the exposition of the course of Norton, as made in the columns of the journals from which we have just quoted. Norton, the lawyer, it seems, is the principal scoundrel in this latter phase of malevo- lence, and the unfortunate and unhappy Judsen the melancholy dupe. But justice will yet be done ; and with this exposition, and these few remarks, we leave the whole affair to an honorable court, a high-toned community, and a just public opinion. Mr. Bennett, proprietor of this paper, Mrs. Bennett, his wife, and all connected with his family, under- standing their position, and proud of their honorable principles, despise all such attacks, come from what quarter they may, and will live them down, and see their authors crushed to the just level of their malevolence. Norton, the lawyer, believe, the son of the chief financier, or President, | of the Morns State Bank, and the N. J. Protection Insurance Company, which have both just exploded, cheating the community to a very large amount. A hopeful son of a hopeful sire. Apvertisina Business.—The aggregate circula- tion of the New York Herald, throughout this city, the United States and the world, is 65,000. People of business, of all descriptions, are beginning to ap- preciate this fact, and are pressing upon our columns with their business notices. Even the government at Washington, and the Corporation of this city, are availing themselves of the advantages of ourcolumns. The advertising of the Post Office, awarded, under a very sensible law of Congress, to papers of the largest circulation in their several | localities, has been in the possession of the Herald for some time past. We have reason to believe that at the approaching session of Congress a general Jaw will be passed, directing all the advertising of the government to be inserted in those journals which command the largest cirentation and the most extensive reading. Both parties in this city, in the late campaign, to secure the olyject of a prompt and universal reading of their notices, se- | lected the Herald as their proper medium of publi- cation. In all cases, the advantages of our im- menee list of readers, among all the active business i | classes of men, here and elsewhere, have been abundantly realized. Our aggregate circulation of | 65,000 includes the daily, weekly, Sunday, Euro- | pean and California Herald. ‘The Herald has fre- quently been bought at San Francisco, at prices varying from one dollar to two dollars and ah per copy, by persous anxious for the fullest and best information from the States and the world at large. European bankers have sent to New York to buy up files of the Herald at any price.

Oa being in- formed that the Seuthern telegraph offices south of Washington would close at nine or ten o'clock that aight, and would not open again till Monday morning, the above porton of the cotton market was despatched over the wires South, and word sent along the Eastern line to get the remainder of it through to New York in time to send it off before the Southern offices closed, and thus to place the South in possession of the market news twenty- four hours earlier than they could receive it in any other way. The effort to obtain, in time, the con- cluding part of the report, unfortunately failed, and the South received the meagre account which the Mercury published on Monday. The fall report they received in time to publish on Tuesday, thus show- | ing, that had we succeeded in despatching the whole on Saturday night, they would have given it on Monday, inetead of Tuesday. | This 1s the whole story.

This Norton, | who lets the cat out of the bag about the Morris State Bank, is the father of the same Norton who has been indicted for some most atrocious libels, | and, therefore, in certain respects, both father and | eon are congenial with each other, and show un- doubted evidence of being of the same stock. We suspect that the country will be astounded | by more explosions in other quarters. The security bank system of New York isa perfect bar to all these financiers of the old school.
