New York, (riday, The Priel of Professor Webster—The Great Excitement in Boston, We give, in another column, the third day’s pro- ceedings of the trial of Professor Webster, for the murder of Dr. Parkman. The case creates a tre- mendous excitement in Boston; equal to that pro- duced by the discovery of the remains of Dr. Park- man in the Medical College, in November last. ‘The case is an extraordinary one; the enminal record does not, probably, contain another hike it. Three days have been spent on the part of the pro- secution in endeavoring to identify the body as that of Dr. Parkman, and yet the only evidence in favor of this, thus far, is that ot Dr. Keep, e dentist. This evidence is singularly strong and presumptive, and strikingly interesting. But whatever may be the result of the trial, the effect on the public mind will probably remain the same as before the opening address of the Attorney General Poliuics of New York—A Revolution Approaching. We have frequently exhibited, as Barnum did the cea serpent, or Bunkum the woolly horse, the tangled and confused condition of the two old pertes in this State. The democrats in Tammany Hall are bitterly divided into two opposing com- mittees, like the two Dromios, each claiming to be the organ of the party. The whigs, according to recent little events, appear to be equally in ate of dissolution. Two cliques, if not three different ones, are struggling for the mastery. There 18 a conservative coterie, favorable to Mr. Webster, and the old-fashioned coterie, favorable to Mr. Clay, besides a socialist organization, imbued | with all the wildest isms of the day, and runing riot in favor of negroes, Senator Seward, a division of property, abolition of slavery, of the Sabbath, and of mony of the old doctrines of Christianity. Such is a picture of our city politics. The State, as far as Niagara Falls, is beginning to present a similar picture. This week (perhaps yesterday) the new journal, which has been in preparation for many months, at Albany, in oppo- siuon to Thurlow Weed and his clique, will probably make its appearance. It is to be culled the New York State Register, and it will be sup- ported by all who are opposed to anti-masonry, Thurlow Weed, Senator Seward, and foreiga socialism, of the ultra kind. It makes its appear- ance with the senction of some of the most im- portent and eminent names among the whigs of the State. John C. Spencer, Vice-President Fill- more, John A. Collier, and probably two-thirds of the whig members of Congress, wich one-half of the whig members of the Legislature, are all javorable to this new movement, in organizing an orginal whig journal, of a aatioosl and conser Vetive policy, to pat slow Weed, War H Seward, Horace Gree nd the violent ultras and selfish pol been lording it over the wh Taur- low W ered to sell out; of the new movement judged nghtly ia believing it cheaper to start a new journal, jans who have arty for the last few years Thurlow, to go out bog and baggage, to kick him out of the party aud oat of yafluence at a much | cheoper rate, and at the some time present a more mtcresting spectacle to the world outside. It will be equal to a Soree-ra Thus, it will be eeen that a new and important movement, epringing from the bosom of the dis- effected of the wing party, is just about showing itself to the world, both in this metropolis and throughout the State ot New York, Ifthe demo- | ts of this erty have heretofore beea divided and « dietracted, between two organizations, we expect to see greater divisions and distractioas among the | whigs, who have been so ternbly outraged and deceived by the Weed faction, heretofore govern ing at Albany. The progress of the fight and the rise of the revolation will be iatereating, We thell h the whole world advised of each aew eruption of this new Vesuvius in politics A we belie thet New Eagland must son undergo the seme process in its political affairs.

Experience, however, shows that the tea room expenses were higher during 1849 than they ever were, They reached, in that year, the large eum of $11,961 22, which is an increase over the preeeding year, of @3,566 it 1# really too bad that the city should suffer in thie way, and be taxed eo heavily for indulging the ve appetites of our Comaon Councilmen. it would be cheaper end much better to give them « per dwm for their services, than to allow them to eat away our substance in this way. The sooner the tea room is abolished, the better. c LLRCTOR Maxwets's DINTMENTS IN THE stom Hovsr.—We under: that a list of the appoint nents made in the Custom House by Mr Maxwell—such as are freadly to Mr. Seward, and were mace thi the influence of Thurlow Weed—ie preparing to be seat to Washington, for the inspection of the Senate, before the coatirma- tuon of the Collector himvelf. It is generally «u pored that Seward, Weed & Co. have jatlarnced one-third of the appovntments in the Custom House, or at least one-fourth. This will operate very strongly against the confirmation of Mr Max. well, although we dowkt whether it will be suii cient to cause his rejection, Ari Now-anarval or THe Sreamemir Niscana —We have not yet heard any tidings of the steamstig Ningara, now fully dee at Malfax. She cannot certainly be a great distance off, and will proba bly be heard of today, or te-morrow at farthest.

Honor- Jo able members act precisely like women when they undertake to show their bravery. There are a great many words, some few scratches, and possi- bly aslap im the face, but nothing chivalrous or monly. The performances are never equal to the promises made in the programme. The public are 7 | led to expecta tragedy, and are disappointed in finding a mere farce. Recently, a duel was ex- pected, but it amounted to nothing—positively nothing, but an apology for one. The parties withdrew from the stage of action, as an Irishman would say, before they came on to it, and Bob Acres was outdone by both parties. ‘The latest rumor, however, that there is to be a regular fight between Commodore M.C. Perry and ieutenant Alvarado Iunter, seems to bring with it eome hopes of a genuine battle. We do not know much about Commodore Perry’s skill ia these matters, but we have reason to believe that | when Lieut. Alvarado is cast for an important per- formance, he will not back out. He will make # brilliant exploit of it at all hazards, so that people who delight in a downright, ezrnest battle, may have their wishes gratified to their fall extent. If we can only have the friends of the parties fully prepared to act es prompters in the matter, itis possible that a tragedy may be worked out of the affair, that will be quite startling. ImportTanr Mission To Cauirornta.—We under- stand that Simeon Draper, Esq., of this city, well known in our local politics, has been appointed toa very important mission to California, by the Cabinet at Washington, and that he ys now very busy preparing for his departure in the next steam- ship that sails for Chagres. We expect, in a day or two, a full account of the business which calls this gentleman to that region, the instructions he may have received, and the purposes which the Cabinet have in view, m sending such a miasion to California. Cotins’ New Line or Liverroot Sreamentrs,— ‘The new line of Liverpool steamships which have been organized by EK. Collins, Esq , are rapidly approach ing completion, and the Atlantic, of three thousand five hundred tons burden, will positively sail on the 27th of next month. We have heard it stated that she will not be ready for sea on that day; bat we have it from the best authority that she will take her depar- ture from this port om that day, without fail. We have also learned thet several of the berths have been already engaged. These are decidedly the most beautifully fitted up ‘vessels, as they certainly are the largest, in the world. Great interest is felt in their success, by not only Mr, Collins. the energetic and enterprising proprietor, but by the public generally. This,it may be said, is our ent pareages on record. The Paoifie, the second of this line, and equal in every respect to the Atlancic, will Jeave here on the 11th of May. In a little more than a month, therefore, we shall have on American line of in full and successful operation, between Liverpool, composed of vessels that will excite as much admiration and wonderment on the other side cf the atlantic as they do on this, / Vast preparations are making among the upper ten thoveand fasblocabdles of this city—not the haif dozen exolurive jamilies around Astor Place—for the new splendid Opera reason, which will open at Nibi theatre on the eighth ef next month, with the 1s.

Asthe bill in very attractive. and the beneficlary a lovely actress, the house will be too small forall the freyuenters of tine Bowery Theatre.

Telegraphic Summary, There was no business of any importance trans- acted in the House of Representatives, at Wash- ington, yesterday. The members were engaged with the convention with Brazil, and the expedi- ency of granting money to pay for clerk hire ia the Department of the Interior. The Senate was occupied in preseating resolu- tions from the Legislature of Mississippi, on the subject of slavery, and m debating Mr. Bradbury’s resolution in relation to removals from office by the present administration, which we referred to yesterday. So far, at allevents, Mr. Bradbury has done nothing to disprove the charge of proscription agaist the cabinet. Mr. Foote defended the Nashville Coavention from a charge that was made against it, that it was intended to be a second edition of the Hart- ford Convention. It appears there has been an other attempt at re- volution in Mexico, having for its object the re- storation of General Santa Anna. These émeutes— for we cannot call them attempts at revolutions— will oceur periodically in Mexico, for such is the condition of the peaple that the intelligent classes have nothing to think of but politics, and the masses are so ignorant that they are easily duped by the others, and moulded to suit their private purposes. Similar outbreaks will characterize that country until a new state of things, moral, social and political, is brought about by the incorporation of more of the Anglo-Saxon blood with that of the native population, than at present exists there. The mixture of the Spanish and native races has had as much to doas any other cause, in reduc- ing Mexico to her present unenviable position, and yet it is nothing more than what might be ex- pected. As ageneral rule, wherever priesteraft of any description is tolerated, the people will be more or less degraded ; but when to that is added an ad- mixture of the quick, energetic blood of the Anglo- Saxon, with that of the sluggish, imbecile African or Indian, a deterioration must in the nature of things follow, and likewise a degradation of the people. And if the abolition fanatics had their way we should see eventually the same state of things in the United States, for their doctrines tend ultimately to amalgamation in its worst form—aa in- corporation of the black and white races in this country. The city of St. Louis has spoken on the present condition of the country, growing out of the anti- slavery agitation. The people of that city have recently held a meeting, at which, while they come plained of .Northera aggressions on the constitu- tion, in relation to fugitive slaves, they advocate compromise and harmony, and oppose the Nash- ville Conveation, we suppose en the ground that such an assemblage is not yet called for by any exigency at present. Next Saturday, it seems, is set apart by the As- sembly of this State for the third reading and pas- sage of bills, some forty of which, it is said, are lying on the table, awaiting final action. Among them is the new assessment bill, which is designed to remedy some evils of a glaring character which exist in the present system, and which are felt a8 grievancss in this metropolis. We un- derstand that property owners in Williamsburgh and Brooklyn are exerting themselves to the ut- most to defeat ite passage, for they are well aware, af it should become a law, many of the sneaking New York merchants, who do business in this metropolis but reside in those places, for the pur- pose of avoiding taxation, weuld be obliged to re- turn to New York, as they would make but htile by remaining where they are. This would, of | course, tend te depreciate the value of real estate in those places. The millionaires of this city, like- wise, oppose it, for it will bring to light some mu- lions of dollars worth of personal property, which ovght to pay its share of the general expenses, as well,as real estate, for it gets equal protection, and needs it more. We hope that all these influences will be of no avail, and that both branches of the Legislature will discharge their duty, in regard to this bill, without fear or favor. We can tell the New York city delegation that the eyes of this community are upon them, watching Affairs In Mexico, New Onteana, March 19, 1850. 00, to the 13th of February, [our previous advices are to the 284 of the same month —Ep.
