Two Weeks Later from The Ohio, Philadelphia, and Crescent City, or one ofthese fine steamers, will arrive, to-day or to-mor- vow from Chagres, and will probably bring two weeks later news from California. Soctalism in New York. For some time past, the mv nies and working men of New Yorls have been engaged in arranging among themselves for procuring an increase of their Wages from their employers, or “ bosses,” as they are termed, such incre having been ren- dered necessary by the advance in house-rent and provisions, growing out of the general prosperity of the count With this view, the members of the diflerent trades have held a number of meetings throughout the city, at which they discussed their affairs and prospects, passed appropriate resolutions, formed constitutions and societies, and performed other business of a similar c ter, These meet- ings were marked with great decorum and pro- priety; and in the “strike,” the working people we by # sound public opinion, At none of them did anything ocenr that could give offence, After agreeing upon an ad- vance of wages, which, in almost every instance, has been conceded by the employers, they very properly paid no attention to extraneous matters, but immediately adjourned to their homes, to re- sume their ocenpations en the morrow. All this was very sensible, very proper, and very creditable to the mechanics and working men of polir, and everything would have passed off very well, but for the interference of some so- cialists and Pourierites, who, as if they were envy- ing the order, regularity, and decorum which pre- vailed at those meetings, attempted to throw a brand into them, and to excite hatred and ill-will between the employers and employed. They went around and about, “like a roaring lion, seeking whem they might devour,” and at length fastened themselves upon the house carpenters, on Friday evening last. Ata meeting of that class of trades- men, the somewhat celebrated Brisbane, a genuine red republican, and dyed-in-the-wool Fourierite, of the French class, addressed the house carpenters, and urged en them the proprieyy of following the example of the socialists in Paris,whose ideas, as we need hardly inform our readers, tend to nothing, as experience has proved, but war between the rich and the poor, and, ultimately, if socialists suc- ceeded, to a system of community of goods, com- yof property, community of wives, the abro- gation of all social ties and regulations, as organ- ized by soe and egrarianism in all its woful and horrible phases. We warn the mechanics and working people of New York against the insidious teachings of these visionary philorophers. Let them attend to their own bu nd avoid, as they would the plague, the theoretical nonse which Drisbane and associates desire to instil into them. Their teach- ings resemble the apples which grow on the borders ref the Dead Sea shore, all fair without, but corrap- tien within, ond turn to ashes on the lip.

Ste- of Paris. America is beginning to rival Europe in | phens as a companion. ‘This meihed of making a every element which marks the progress of crime and civilization, The mysteries of the Tombs, and of its dependencies, in this great metropolis, present as much originality, of a dramatic charae- ter, as any thing which can be paralleled in Eu- rope. ‘The recent famous trial of the Drurys, father and son, upon a charge of making the torpedo which exploded in Warner's dwelling, resulted in nothing. ‘That was only the beginning of the first scene in the curious deama ef the mysteries in New York. The second seqe will be opened to- day, at the criminal court of Brook!yn, before Judge Morse, and the famous mysterious, extraor- dinary, world-bewitching One-eyed Thompson, will be placed before the bar on a charge of passing counterfeit money, or something similar. The charge will not produce an eruption like that of Mount Vesuvius or Mount Eina; but his trial may bring out, in its progress, some curious and inte- resting secrets connected with the vast confederacy of stool-pigeonism, which lately, in the Drury trials, startled the world from its propriety in these re- gions. We understand that Mr. George Wilkes intends to engage certain lawyers in the defence of One-eyed Thompson, and among them we learn that John and David (vraham may be retained, the first certain. In addition to this, the case may be aided in its details, on the side of One-cyed Thomp- son, by Enoch C. Camp. All the original parties in this interesting drama, from George Wilkes round to Marenus Tullius Cieero Stanley, will more or less take their respective parts, either in front or behind the scenes, It will be an interesting trial, and will, no doubt, during its continuance, stop the | sale of ali the French novels of the day, and almoet bankrupt some of our wandering, bare-footed Bib- liopoles. But, no matter for thet, the lawyers and other machinery retained for One-eyed Thompson, and the newsbeys, will reap an abundant harvest in the month of April—thus reversing the order of thé seasons. If people should ask of us what we mean to do, our réle is simple. We shall give the fullest and most complete report of the whole trial connected with these mysteries of the Tombs, and which is caleulated to enlighten the present generation in the eries of stool-pigeoning, as revived of late yeare, and impre over the days of the furous Bill Wiley. It is a difficult position to be inde- pendent, but we will try. The public may, therefore, depend that the fullest and most imparcial reports of the progress of these cu- rious trials, and their results, will be published daily in the columns of this journal. So prepare for the opening of the second seal, which comes on in Brooklyn, to-day, on the trial of One-eyed Thomp- son, the great hero of the modern drama of stool pigeonism, &e., &e., & Tue Compromise Commrrrer IN tue Sexare.— By our intelligence from Washington we learn that the committee of thirteen, appointed by the Senate to report a compromise bill for the full, final, and lasting settlement of the slavery questiot, in con- nection with the new territories—such a bill as wi restore harmony between the Northern and South- era States, and remove all cause of alienation be- tween those two sections of the country—are pro- ceeding their work with all due haste, and we shall look for the result of their labors and deli- erations in a short time. It cannot be denied that a great responsibility rests upon that committee, ene which we have every reason to hope and to believe will be discharged conscientiously. But there is no concealing the fact, that this com- mittee of the Senate, and the House of Repre- sentutives, likewise, will be obliged to encounter | and overcome a great many obstructions and diffi- culties before a settlement of the slavery anestion be arnvea a. ‘There are traitors in the camp ; there are enemies of the nation in the federal coun- cils; and sorry we are to say, that among them, and the most prominent, too, are the constitutional ad- visers of Gen. Taylor, the members of the present cabinet, who, from the moment of their induction | into power, have used the influence of their office | and position to increase the agitation between the North and the South on the slavery question, and t open, while there is a fair prospect of its settlement on a fair and just basis of compromise, to subserve their | We have no hesi- | tation in saying, that, but for the efforts of Mr. Clayton, and his associates, to keep this sore open and running, that matter would have been settled before this.

Taylor have hitherto pre- tour, with some éclat, if now quite fashionable, Money alone is not a sufficient passport to society in England and France; but brains can do wonders. Mrs. Stephens has a very high reputation, at home and abroad, as one of the most graceful and brilliant magazine writers of the day, and it will be sufficient to open the decors to many a European literary, perchance arimecratic circle. Mr. Pratt will be introduced into society that he could not hope to approach by mere money. Mr. Callen Bryant, in a similar way, assisted one of his friends —the latter paying all expenses—while he visited Europe last year; and, in fact, it is now pretty well understood that money alone, without some literary or scientifie chaperone, cannot pass current in the best foreign society. A literary friend, however, gives a tone and power to a long purse, and makes everytaing pass off delightfully. The author has fine opportunities for enlarging the sphere of obser- vation, at a simple cost of time, while the million- aire enlarges his disbursements. Hence we find a reciprocity of interest between money and mind, that is a good feature, and quite encouraging to those who have to struggle for bread onthe hard road of letters. Many of our authors will be in demand, during the summer, for the same purpose ; and they will have the happiness of studying out all the gocd roads And interesting historieal sites which give delight to tourists. The venerable Dr. Mott has also gone to Eu- rope, though he will return in time for his usual course of lectures. His distinguished position as a professional man will be suflicient to carry him | even to the foot of thrones. He will be eligible to court from his scientific reputation, and needs no author to aid him in getting into society. Dr. Mott can go to Europe on his own hook—as we always have done. His departure would have been much more missed, bad not his son, Dr. Valentine Mott, jun., recently returned from rope, to take the place of his eminent father, who has merely undertaken to visit the old world for relaxation from professional cares and anxieties. The youthful Dr. Mott is destined, by the elements of his nature, the enthusiasm of his mind, and the finish of his education, to worthily fill the exalted station to which he has been called. As a profes- sional man, he will yet rauk among the highest, for he has industriously qualified himself for his arduous labors, and cares nothing for fatigue and difficulty, as his noble conduct in Europe, during the revolution, fully displayed. No American did more for the honor of his countrymen, in those tur- bulent days, than Dr. Valentine Mott, jam. Daring the revolution in Palermo, which began the great movement in Europe, he assisted the citizens with his purse, his energies, his medical skill, and his bravery. He was engaged in ten or twelve battles, asa leader and surgeon, inciting, like a hero, the combatants to move on to victory, and afterwards attending tothe wounded with his medical and surgical skill. He received wounds in the cause, but he received, also, high honors; and he may be truly said to have given, by his example, more hopes to the inhabitants of Southern Europe, than even the justice of their cause. He showed what individual courage can accomplish. While young Valentine Mott has thus returned, quietly, unostentatiously, yet laden with honors, he assumes the position of his absent father, with- out any other demonstration than the regard of these who know his worth, accomplish- ments and virtues. Our whole sympathy has been absorbed by a few very worthy and amiable foreigners, who have been very unfortunate at home, but who have not equalled, in any one in- stance, the bravery of this, our own countryman. It is a great oversight—but its the usual way.

K. Collins line, which were con- structed for the purpose of plying between this city and Liverpool, and at the same time convincing the world that if we are not behind all other nations in the splendor and speed of our packet ships—or rather, that if we could excel them in that kind of craft, we could do the same if we applied our mind to it, in steamships, Mr. Collins did excel the world in his splendid packet ships, and commenced the building of five steamships, which, if we do not mistake very much, will, when they reach the other side of the big pond, make an impression there, and convince our trans- Atlantic friends, to their satisfaction, that if they can build fine steamehips we ean do the same, and that in that reepeet, ax well as in others, we can justly claim to be inferior to no country under the sun, The Atlantic, the first of Mr, Colling’s new line, being just completed, went ona trial trip on Saturday last, for the purpose of testing the engine and machinery, +0 that when she starts on her regular voyage to Liver- pool, on the 27th instant, she willhave fair play, After going down the bay a short distance, ske waited for the mship Southerner, which trades between this city and Charleston, with the view of giving hera brush. and trying her mettle. The Southerner is « remarkably fact vessel, and up to Saturday last was never beaten by any- thing in the shape of a sea-craft, whether propelled by steam or otherwise, She aecordingly entered into the spirit of the fun, and did her best. Atthe time when the two vesvels were close together, the Atlantic was proceeding at a very moderate rate, but when they were nearly abreast, the Atlantic woke up, and detex- mined that the saucy Southerner would accomplish « feat if she bent her, A fair trial of speed between the two vessels then ensued, the result of which was, that the Atlantic shot ahead of her like an arrow, and prov- ed herself to be a much faster vessel than the other, The captain, crew, and passengers were net at all mor- tified at their defeat. Southerner though the name of the vessel was, and although the passengers were most- ly Southerners, they rejoiced that the Atlantic excel- led their vestel in point of speed, because they ware Americans, and were rejoiced av the success of a na- tional vessel, which the Atlantic is to ail intents and purposes. They accordingly cheered her as she passed them {right heagtily, aud were much better pleased than they would have been if the Southerner had beaten her. After testing the speed of the two vessels, the South- erner proceeded ongher course, and the Atlantic headed towards Fire Island, and remained at sea till yester- day morning, when she returned to her dock, at the foot of Grand street. ‘The performance exceeded the most sanguine expectations of everybody, even Mr. FE. K. Collins himself, Sho was tried in every way, by tail and by steam, and proved herself to be not only an excellent sea-boat but a very fast one. With twenty pounds of steam to,the square inch, her engine re- volved seventeen times per minute, and she secom- plished, in coming up the bay, the almost ineredible rate of between seventeen andcightcen miles per hour, with the throttle valve one-third closed at that. At sea she made fourteen anda half and fifteen miles per hour, She seemed, indeed, #s if no limit could be put to her speed. Her beautifully formed bows offered little or no resistance to the water, and she hardly created a rufie on the surface. In fact. at a distance of a hundred yards astern, no one would suppose, if he had wetk_nown it, that she had passed at all. During the trial trip, the machinery worked most beautifully, No jar or shaking was experienced, no more than there is felt in a drawing room up-town by the rumbling of carts in the street—nor in fact as much. It worked with the greatest imaginable ease and regularity Not a screw even got loose, and when she arrived at her dock, she was, in that respect, in « fit condition to undertake her voyage to Europe, We rejoiee—the whole country will rejoice—at the success of the Atlantic. She has more than equalled the expectations of her owners, of the originator of the enterprise, Mr. Collins, and of all concerned. She has proved herself to be a vessel, the superior of which does not exist in any part of the world, and one that will confer eredit and honor not only on Mr, Collins, but on the nation at large. In this trial trip she had ‘a full cargo of coal aboard, and drew eighteen and a half feet of water, With her regular cargo she will not draw more than nineteen feet and @ half. We look forward to her making one of the shortest, if not the SMOrvest pureAge On ‘Tnerew one pecanariy about the Alantic, which is well worthy of mention, She makes but one brewk, as it is called. in the water at the bows, and cute the water as ensily as if there wae no resistance at all.

Our readers will find among our telegraphie in- telligence to-day, @ good deal of matter, which they will peruse with a great deal of interest. The Senate at Washington, it will be perceived, were engaged throughout yesterday in discussing a reso- lution offered by Col. Benton, instructing the eom- mittee of thirteen, to whom Mr. Clay's and Mr. Bell's resolutions were referred, to report separate- ly upon each subject involved, and not to unite in one bill, two or more incongruous subjects. We can hardly think that Col. Benton is serious in the course which he is pursuing on this subjeet, butif he is, he can blame only him- self if he is looked upon by the country as one of the factionists and disorganizers, who desire, above all things, that the slavery agitation should be kept open until itresult in something very serious. His tactics would really make us believe that he has linked himself with the cabinet,and was determined toadhere to them in the anti-national and unpa- triotic course’ which they have marked out for themselves. The slavery question is not a quib- ble, nor does its settlement depend upon parlia- mentary quibbles. It is a plain, palpable matter of faet affair, which is to be decided on broad and comprehensive principles of compromise, such as those on which the constitution was formed; and the musty and antiquated parliamentary rules of England, in a by-gone age, have nothing to do with it. This petiifogging will not do. The whole country, and all parties, are anxious, and expect that their representatives in Congress will settle the whole slavery agitation at once, and in one bill, ‘They want it put at rest for- ever, without resorting to any petty subter- fuges. The question is a plain and simple one, and the way of settling it is clear and open. Such tactics as Mr. Benton is pursuing, might do very well in @ justice’s court on the other side of the mountains; but in the presence of such a digni- fied body as the United States Senate, and in view of the importance of the subject, they are entirely out of place. We are glad to see that Mr. Benton’s motion was promptly laid upon the table, where it is to be hoped it will remain, until at least the com- mittee of thirteen shall have reported. Mr. Richardson’s resolution to appoint a commit- tee to inquire into and report on certain claims that have been allowed by the present cabinet, notwith- standing their rejection by preceding administra- tions, formed the principal iopic of discussion in the House of Representives yesterday, and was even- tually adopted. We aguin express our hope that this inquiry will be as broad and ample as possible, and embrace every thing within its scope. We ure more than ever convinced that the cabinet are rotten, from the manner in which they were defended yesterday in the House, and the mode iu which their friends and supporters opposed the in- quiry which was sought to be instituted. If Mr. Ewing is blameless of the charges preferred against him, the disproving of them would tend to strengthen him as a member of the cabinet; while the strenuous opposition which was offered to Mr. Richardson’s resolution can be construed but in one way, and that unfavorable to him and the cabinet generally. The trath never yet injured an honest, honorable, and conscientious man ; and if Mr. Ewing was innocent of those charges, he and his friends, and the friends of the administration generally, should court rather than oppose an inves- tion of the character proposed.

General Cass stated in debate to-day, that the com- promive committee to whom the slavery question was veferred by the Senate, will, in all probability, not re- port nny bill at all. but merely recommend some plan of adjustinent on the bills which have been heretofore introduced, It is said that they will recommend one bill for California and the territories, another for the Texas boundari ud the division of Texas, another foe fugitive slay 4 probably another for the aboli- tion of the slave trade in the district of Columbia.
