York, Sunday, August 25, 1850. i ‘Telegraphic Summary. | We are disappointed to-day, in not being able to | inform our readers of the pussige of the Civil and | Diplomatic bill in the House of Representatives, | yesterday. It is, however, near its end, for, as we | learn by our telegraphic intelligence from Wasit- | fogton, every section has beep acted upon. There is | no doubt, therefore, that it will be taken up and | disposed of en Monday. The next thing in order will be the Senate bills, so that we may expect an exciting time in the House neat week. The Seward Clique, aud Mr, Fillmore’s Administration, Thurlow Weed, and the whole of the Seward clique of * higher law” politicians, are in a state of adful suspense, and have been so since the ac- eession of Mr. Fillmore to the Presidency. Previ- ous to the decease of the venerable G» neral Taylor, they were in high spirits, and ca:ried things witha high hend. They influenced the Galphin cabinet as they pleased, and even went so far as to pre- | vent some slight wishes of Mr. Fillmore, in the matter of appointments, being gratified. In a mo- ment, as it were, the cup was dashed from their | lips, ere they had more than tasted of its contents, | and Mr. Fillmore became President of the United States. end their organist, Thurlow Weed, have beea paralyzed, aud undecided what course to take. | ‘They cannot reconcile themselves to the loss of easte and influence which they have sustained ; and, afraid to bite, content themselves with an occasional grow] at the new administration. On Mr. Fillmore’s accession, the Albany Even- tng Journal condescended to say, that as long as | Mr. Fillmore conducted his administration accord. | ing to the views of its editor, including the Seward clique, he would receive its support; but when he strayed from that path, he might expect its oppo- sition. Soon, however, the Journal found some- thing to find fault with. Mr. Fillmore, as it is well kuown, selected the Hon. Daniel Webster, as Se- eretary of State, and Mr. Hall, of Butralo, as Post- master General. This was looked upon as a blow directly aimed at the Seward elique, and tre: such. Accordingly, Thurlow Weed announce eelection of the one as a blunder, and that of the other as a mistake. give any reasons for his opinion, thinking, perhaps, that his tyve dixit w: nt. In the estimation of the whig party generally, however, and in that of the people at large, if the appointment of Mr. Webste; was a blunder, it was a most fortunate one, for, asa 2 = 1 er Thurlow did not vouchsafe to | the 26th inst., by a Te Dewm, in the cathedral, diseppearance of the epidemic. On the 12th of this month, a great performance took. place at the Tacen theatre, for the rebuilding | | | of the Jesus Mariachureh.

This stirring spectacle is expected by the Habaneros with the greatest anxiety, ‘Tax Racing or THe Do@ Star aNp or THE Orexa.—Castle Garden is 4 fixed fact in this me- tropolis, but like many another fact, it is so fixed, 80 permanent, so every ‘day in its character, that thousands of persons under whose very noses it exists, never dream of partaking in its delicious atmosphere, even when the thermometer marks ninety at night-fall, and the pavements of the roasted city smoke like the ribs of the great ox recently cooked in England by Soyer, the great cook of the Reform Club, to please the eyes and palates of a rural populetion.g Here are we peaned, and penning away in a city, with only an outlet or twoat the sides, and with only the roof off, to letin a lite ir at the top, thousands of us ex- claiming, with vain complaints, about the heat, and the misery and dullness of city life, while at no inconvenient distance, we have the most mag- nificent place of public resort that art, nature, and circumstances, ever provided for the weary deni- zens«f a busy metropolis. All the guide books of ~ | European cities—all the travelled observation of | | the tourist, straining and striving to describe the splendors of nature and art—must fail to produce any description, which will rival an appropriate one of Castle Garden, as it appeared, for instance, on Friday evening last. Had « stranger, blindfolded, been permitted for the first time to open his eyes | onthe scene, he could not have done less than | acknowledge, that London, Paris, Milan, Naples, Lisbon, St. Petersburg, Vienna, or any other Eu- ropean city has no such brilliant locality, com- mind. On the northern side of Castle Garden— an immense circular building more than two thonsand feet in circumference—is a beautiful ark of eleven acres, handsomely arranged with grees plots, aud adorned with magnifieeat trees and handsonse walke, the chief promenade fringing, for nearly a querter of mile, the heaving ocean, which plashes gently and musically, where its element is thus bounded. The sea breeze whisp- from leaf to leaf, and now, nightly, the full orbed moon rises above this great temple of song, gilding the tops of trees, the walls of the castle, and silvering the placid waves which heave in gen- tle undulations, while rest upon them hundreds of ehips—the gems of a generous and intelligent com- merce. Such a spectacle of splendor night se} iom looks upon in a crowded city, and dull of sou, From that day to this the Seward clique, |"™st he be, who could pace the beautiful walks, which the prudence of old Ben Fletcher, in 1693, i provided fora forgetful posterity—without appre- ciating the most romautie spot chronicled in the natural history of cities. Added to all this, to the charms of nature, to that spirit of old Ben, which declared, * Whereas, there is actual warr between our Soveresgn Lord and Lady the King and Queen, and the Freach King; and lem informed of a Squadron of Ships and jand forces, intended from France to invade this Citty and Province ; and whereas, for the safe ty and preservation thereof, I finde itt of absolute necessity to make a platforme wpon the outmoste pointe of rocks under the Fort, whereon i jetend te build a battery to command both rivers; | have therefore thought fitte, and doe hereby require Citty of New York and Manning and Barnes’ Is- land, to cut down 6 cordes of stockadoes, of 12 feet in length, andto have them in readiness to be conveyed to New York.”"—We sey, added to this, we have now greater cause for excitement then even old Ben Fletcher himself, at the anticipation of French incursions.

By the overbearing cc Zz management of relations which | have alv existed between the United States and | Portugal were disturbed, and the two countries brought to the brink of war, about a petty claim, | which Portygal offered to leave to the arbitrament | of a disinterested power. This honorable offer | was rejected by the Galphins, and oar Minister at | that court was instructed to made a peremptory de mand for its payment, and in case of a refusal to pay it, eoheit bis.passports, and retarn to the United States. The demand was made and ref sed. Mr. Clay got his peseports and embarked on board one of out national versels. In this situation of the matter, it eume into Mr. Webster's hands, and, lo and behold, | e, the cretary of State, whose eppointment was a mistake, end the Portogu Minister, pat theic heads wgether, and after one or two friendly conferences, arranged the whole dis- without any bullying on either part, and with in a very short oui any loss ef dignity to the United States.

We appre- hend, however, that this is more in his favor than egainst him. If William H.

Thousands flock m from the country and from adjacent citie: to give them a warm reception, whenever the gates can be entered. They excite the utmost anxiety— and though some of their leaders are women, yet, on this account, the interest of the people at large is increased. The chief leaders are Steffanoni, | Bosio, Costini, Vietti, Salvi, Lorini, Vietti, (the tenor af whose conduct is frequently noticed,) Colletti, and @ great man, Mariri, a kind of second Attila. Itis said, also, that this latter Vietti hes an associat: uartered ia the very heart of the city, known as Pico ,Vietti, whose powerful voice, itis said, may be yet expected to be “heard of nights,” exeiting the astonished listeners, De- sides these, there are several other great leaders, we must confess, much to our wonder.

Under these cireum- | stances, We may expect several more very interes- ting actions, for which our people should prepare themselves. Let us make a rush upon the gates, and send out several more, well filied steamers, from New Jersey agd from Staten Island, to make a lending directly on the sea side of the castle. Let v8 have no delays—but turn out in fall force. When General Burgoyne was quartered in Bos- ton, he converted the old Cradle of Liberty, Faneuil nt, rather than upon the suggestions of this elique, we epprehend that, in the opinion of Thurlow Weed, and the Albany Evening Journal, he will commit more mistakes and biunders.
