Astor Piser— Bquasesra® Panrormances, New Yorn, ‘Wuesday . , December 11, 1849, The Foreign News. We cevote a considerable portion of our co- lumns, to-day, to the publication of the details of the European intelligence received by the steam- tlup Europa, the mails having eome to hiod yes- terday afternoon. The Hermann will be here to- day or to-morrow, with a party of the brave Hun- garians, as passengers. The news received by the Europa, although it possesses no startling feature—such as what we were accustomed to for the previous year or two— has a great deal of interest to the whole eivilwed world, and to the United Statesin particular. Al- though we do not hear any longer of kings being dethroned, or governments that have existed for centuries being overturned, we still have the con- eeling fact before us, that Europe has derived an important benefit from the revolutions which cha- racterized that quarter of the world during the past two years. At the bottom of those exciting movements there was a desire for republican form of government; and if that desire was not in every case gratified, it is satistactory to kaow that it was in one, and that, too, the most important. Notwith- standing all the attempts that have been made to discourage republicanism in Europe, aud to sup- press republican desire, we have the broad fact before us, that the great French republic isa fixed fact, a tangible reality, and what is as good, there As every probability of its not only remaining such, butof its exercising a moral influence throughout the rest of Europe, that will in due time pro- duce appropriate fruit. Indeed, itis ceitain that if France continue a republic, despotism im Eurepe, of every deseription, will have re- ceived its death blow, and its duration will be but a question of time. As might be ex- pected, all the newspapers under the influence of monarchy, make a business of misrepresenting the new republic, and doing all in their power to bring that form of government into disrepute, if not ridicule. Hence it is, that we do not expect an honest or candid statement of the affairs of the French republic, trom that source; and in collect- wg information concerning it, the independent journalist is compelled to balance well everything which comes to hishand, and in termiag an opinion, 10 make all proper allowances for the prejudices of enemies, and the wickedness and falsity of in- terested parties. By the last accounts from Europe, the French republic is going on as well as could be expected, and much better than the agents of monarchy desire, because they fear the influence which its success will produce in other countries of Kurope. ‘There is good reason, too, Mr hoping that a’ ger of reaction is past, and that the Frenc’ peo- | ple will never again submit to any other form of Parties and factions ate eo nearly and nicely balanced, that no particular one can hope to succeed in carrying out its views. The legitimists are powerless as @ party, eo are the Orleanists, so are the socialists, and the moderates are precisely in the same position. No one of them can hepe to succeed as a party, and this heppy circumstance will do more to perpetuate re. publicenism im France, than anything else. While those parties and factions are qu varrelling among themselves, the republic increases in strength, and the macses of the people become reconciled and attached toit. Ina little while, it will be safe be- yond all peradventure. If it remaia intact uatil the next Presidential election comes around, the great question wil! be decided, and from that time forward sepublicanism will make headway, and extend its bounderies, until it embraces the whole of that continent within its ample folds. Europe has been quiet since the last struggle between republicanism and despotism was put down by the superior phy- sical force of the latter, and, in all probability, it will remain quiet for a few years. The contest, however, will be reco wmenced, and it depends upon the French republic tw say when it will be resumed. As might be expected, the whole of Europe 1s anxiously wat new career wrich che has opened for herseli, and the infleences which that great nation has already exerted are plainly visible.

Buretary or tre Dieraret Atronyey’s OF rut.—The office of Joha McKeon, Dietrict At- torney, it appears, was felon ly entered on Suns day night, by some accomplished burglar, and a great portion of indretments and other papers car- ried away.

We dare say that there is nota city in the whole civilized world where such an oceurrence could take place, but the city of New York; and it would not have taken place | here, if the Common Council had procured a safe for the District Attorney's office, ia which to keep his decuments. Mr. MeKeon has repeatedly peti- tioned the Comwon Council daring the last three years for a safe, but without efieet. Now, we think it probable, the Common Council will make an appropriation at the next meeiing, on the prin- ciple of locking the stable after the horse is gone. This vs the way in which the interests of the city are disregarded by our public eervants.

That journal, while it deprecates those indulgences, hopes that the tea room business will be abolished, in order that our tax-paying citizens may be relieved of this most unnecessary burden. / Now, all this is very fine, but we would like to know how it is that Mr. McElrath, one of the proprietors of the Tribune, who was one of our Assistant Aldermen last year, did not get up in his seat, and advocate the reform, in this watter, which 18 contended for in the Trebune at the present time. While he was sitting as Assist- ant Alderman, there was nothing said about the matter ; but now, when he is out of the board, the paper, of which he 1s part owner and proprietor, makes a terrible fuss about it. But the tea room, although itis illegal, 1s onlya small part of the delinquencies and extravagance of the Common Council; and the very men who are now crying out against the tea room, would spend ten times as much in giving fat contracts to their relatives and friends, and participating in the profits, contrary to law. It is in the contract system that the great- est leak hos always been ; but we hope that, under the new charter, all this will be done away with. The menebers of the Common Couacil should be paid, as other legislators are, and we hope that they will be compensated before long, for the loss oftime which they Ineur by attending to their duties. Let them be paid a reasonable sum, and there will be no excuse for their participating in the benefits arising from contrac Arrival of the Great Western. ‘The Great Western, Capt.
