The English post office anthorities so construe the treaty, that itis rot obligatory on them tosend by the Collins line of steams any letters that are not epecielly endorsed to go by them. The consequence is, that thousands of letters eddressed to parties in the United States, which the writers mtended should go by the first steamed ing of the Cunard veesels, causing a delay of three aud fourdays Any person engaged in comm is aware of the serious detriment which such delay ceeesions to merebants. leen brought tothe notice of the government at Wathivgion, and they promptly adopted the only | means within their power to put an end to the evil —that is, by retaliating, and sending no letters | from this ride of the Atlantie by any Cunard steemehip, unless they were specially endorsed to | [want you to let me alone » sre detained in England uatil the suil- | The subject has | WA Tian Veewe—Thrve groans (or those who dufastod itt (As cordial geomuiog af we ever hinacd simu th tats of every Ouse t Mr. Cray about my cow Tum fatigued » } want Well, genth Fert; T'wonld like to goto my statoroom, if yon will let me, By-nnd-by. if God xparos ma. 1 wil ra and ee you ail again : aud as to ray Omuibus, you ad Detter olf wet into it and ride bom as f you can ubter) \ twits Siesding these and other appouls, he wes Sti oO perseouted that at length it was nees«ary to @n)! in the aid of the policw, to prevent hiuw (rom betng | billed with Kingwess”?

Mann, man of the Legislative Caucus, and Joha V. L. Pruya, Chairman of the Democratic State Com- mittee,) have each issued their calls for State Conventions, te nominate State officers to bo sup- ported at the ensuing election in November next. The Democratic State Convention will be held at Syracuse, on Wedneeday, the 1th of September; and the Whig State Convention will also meet at Syracuse, on Thursday, the 26th of September next. Each Assembly district in the State, one hundred and twenty-eight in number, is to elect one delegate. Both sections of the democratic party have united in the call for the conven- tion of the 11th September, and it is according- ly published in the Albany Argus, Albany Atlas, and other papers hitherto antagonistic on the free soil question. A similar union of the demo- erate, it will be remembered, was attempted Just year, but was only partially successful, in con- sequence of some of the old hunkers refusing to coalesce with the barnburners. The result was, that the whigs elected one-half of the State ticket, and a majority of two in the Senate; while the democrats carried a bare majority in the House of Aseembly This year the State officers to be elected are, a Governor, Lieutenant Governor, one Canal Com- mirvioner, an laspector of the State Prisons, and a Clerk of the Court of Appeals—who are to be nomi- nated by the Scate Convention. ltia doubtful whether a perfect cnion can be ef- fected in the democratic party; yet, it is believed that their condition is better than that of the whigs, in the elements required for success. In the first place, the free voil party and the abolitionists have, for the lest two years, shown a much stronger dis- position to affiliate with the democrats than with | the whigs, in this and several other State: aud this fact alone would insure the suc- cess of the democrats at the coming election, were it vot for the repagnance of many of the old hunkers to coulesce with the abo! i and their bitter hatred towards Martin and John Van Buren, and other barnburner leaders. Thos we see that, atthe last two or three elections ia this city, the old hunkers have preferred to allow the whigs to carry this democratic stronghold, than to combine with the barburners or free-soilers. Making due allowance for the obstacles, thus stated, in the way of each party, or supposing them to balance eech other, as waa the case last year, the wh have a new diMfculty tocontead with, ia the feud which now exists between the particular friends and eupporters of Mr. Senator Seward and those of President Fillmore. This quarret is of long standing, es is well known, and it is not now essen- tial to evr purpore to explain its origin. It had teeched ite present height efter the national appoint- mente for this State were made, when it was found that the recommendati © office, made by Sea- ator Seward, were undormly preferred by the late @abinet of General Taylor, and those of the Vice President, Mr. Fillmore, were disregarded la vonecquence, anew whig paper, the State Regus- ter, was evtablished at Albany, by the friends of the | Vice President, to oppose the iafluence of the | the well knowa especial organ of and edited by hie friend Tharlew Evening Jowr Mr. Seward, Weed The accession ef Mr. Fillmore to the Preside cacy | having thrown the Seward clique into the back- @'e Und im (hie State, it becomes an interesting sub- Jeet of nequiry what course they will purewe at the | ensuing election. Seward and Weed weil know | shat the whig party have newer been able to get | aleng with their aid ia thes State, and that in | 1544, when the friends of Mr. Clay threw them | by refusing to place their particular | friends in nonmpation for important offices, the de | feat of the whig party followed. This result was | etcrinoted, by many of the friends of Mr. Clay, to | the helding beck, or want of geal, on the part of Seward, Werd, end their friewde, notwithstanding | @ Horton! support of Mr. Clay. Should the nominations by the Whig Convea- ee this fall, not be entisfactory to Messrs. Seward and Weed, we do not expect to see them er their friends caulesce with the abolitionists or Giveatisfied free solders, for the purpose of forming a third party ; but adore probeble result will be, that they will leave the friende of the President to fight their own battles im this State, and then the result will be determieed by the fuct as to which of the two great parties suffers mest from internal discensions and defections With regard to eimdilates for Governor, have heard but tittle seid on the democratic ‘They may fiad it diffien't to elect a exadid ite will waite the ofthe party.

Eurergan Iyte IGuNCK.— FURTMER BY THE some additional intelligence from Europe, by the steamship Cambria, which we were prevented from getting on Tuesday evening, in consequence of a thunder storm, which deranged the telegraphic wires. Baron Rothschild, the celebrated Jewish banker, having been again returned by the people of Lon- don, to represent that city in the House of Com- mons, by the advice of his friends, presented his | credentials, and demanded to be sworn in on the Old Testament. A stormy debate ensued, which was postponed to the following Monday. It seems that the French republic have deter- mined te do honor to the memory of the late Pre- sident Taylor. Louis Napoleon was to go in mourning for one month, solemn religious services were to be performed in the church of Notre Dame, and it was decided that the national flag should have crape attached to it for ten days. The other features of this additional intelligence have been commented upon. Tue Catirornia Maus—Nesiect Somewne! | We regret to inform our readers that we are unable to publish to-day our California correspondence, in consequence of the mails for this city having failed to come to hand. All the mails, with the excep- tion of those for New York, are duly received. What the cause of this omission is, is not yet known. The bags were either detained in San Francisco, or they were mislabelled. The latter is the more probable, and if it should prove to be the fact, they have no doubt gone South. We are informed that « telegraphic message has been sent to New Orleans, and if the New York mails have gone in that direction, we shall get them in a few days. The whole mail was very large, compriaing some forty-five bags, eighteen of which were des- tined for other places than New York. Tue Cowtoy Prisonens.—We leara by the steamship Georgia, Which arrived here yesterday, from Chagres, via Havana, that the remainder of the Contoy prisoners are yet in confinement, but that eeven of them were to be liberated on the sixth of August. The remaining three were to be sentenced to eight years in the chain gang. This is the finale of the celebrated piratical invasion of Cuba, by Lopez and his companions. Arrival and Departure of Henry Clay. The Hon Henry Clay having been expected to arrive by the Philadelphia esterday, at one 0’ of politicians and others collected around the ferry at the foot of Courtlandt street, anxiously await- ing his arrival. They were all disappointed, bo for be did not come by that route. The Kentucky statesman stole a march upon them ji tion, He hadat first intended to coi d intelligence came on to that sterday morning, howover, we received a telegraphic despateh, intorming us that he would arrive by the Amboy boat, at one o'clock. A few of Mr. Clay's inti- te friends were also made aware of the change, and from 12 o'clock they were waiting at Pjer No. 1, North river, for the arrival of the boat. The people around the dock did not appear to know anything about it. Exactly at one o’cloek, the John Potier arrived at ber wharf baving all her flags floating in the breego, ta | honor of the illustrious man on board. Mr. Clay did not make his appearance when the boat was made fast, *# peculiar to an American of dirtinetion in the boat, a# indicated by the flags, | around,and the bustle, The truth at nd the pressure became very great. The gangway being fastened, the passengers all got out first. The whig committe, and the leading whigs, then proceeded on board, to welcome him to the eity, invite him toe private residence during bis short stay. The house of Mr Willie Hall, West Fourteenth street, war set apart for the purpose, Bat tn spite of all entrention, Mr. Clay persisted in bis resolution to proceed direct tothe Pall river boat, at Pier No. 3, as | he wished to pass through the city as privately as pos rible. THe was accompacied by Mr. and Mrs, Calvert. Among those *bo waited on Mr. Olay, were D. A. Muir, Jordan, Mr. J.T. Chapman, Mr, Husted, Mr. Howard, Mr. Burroughs. Mr. Galo, Mr. K. Brewer and broth Alderman Concklin, and Alderman Delamater, The passengers having all been got out, Mr. Clay at “length made his appeara ith w Indy, (Mere, Cal- | vert) leaning om bis arm. This was the signal for immense and enthuriastic cheering frova the multi- | tude, and it was with great difficulty and by the assist- ence of friends keeping off the crowd, that he gained | the carriage which was in waiting for him, so great was the pressure to get» right of him, The demoera dially united with the whigs tn thelr thman, in thusiaam, anid he was the greatest ‘tran the United States ever produced A working man, 6 demoorst, asked where he left Washington!

Re- | cent advices from Europe are more favorable in rela- tion to prices of flour and corn, the result, doubtless, of the appearance of the potato discase in some parts of Ireland Should the destruction of that important staple be wide-epread, it will have a very favorable effect npon prices for breadstuffs ia our markets, and prove fortunate for thore who have involved them- selves in large shipments, The grain harvests of Eng- land are likely to be unusually abundant, bat a per- fect panic would be ereated at once, if the potato dis- ease has shown itself in a very malignant form, or extends over @ large section of eountry. With im- monse crops of grain in this country, it becomes a matter of vast importanes to us whether we are to have a very moderate or a very extensive demand from the other of the Atlantic, and further ac- counts from England will be looked for with » great deal of interest ‘Thus far the receipts of breadstuffs from the West do not compare very favorably with those for the cor- responding period last year; but it must be borne in mind that the receipts upto the Ist of August this year were composed of last year’s overplus, which was Known to be small, and thet wo ean form no idea of the probable supply for the rest of the season, until the new crops commence coming to market. It is our impression that from this time forth the reeeipts will be unusually large, and that the aggregate will largely exceed that of either of the previous two years.
