It is merely @ meansof protracting the existence of party jour- nals in Washington, which would expire in a week if deprived of the sustenance which they receive in | this way. Year after year, we see the proprietors of those journals underbidding each other in price, and using all sorts of intrigue, deception and tricke- ry, to obtain the public printing; and in cases where they bid too low, it has been the invariable custom to petition for extra compensation, which has generally been allowed. There is no good reason why the treasury of the general government should be made to contribute to the support ef political and-party journals at the capi- tal. If they had merit, and were conducted with talent and ability, they would not need any assis- tance in this way, but would be able to exist en the patronage of the public, and be profitable to their proprietors, besides. But the journals in Washington are not managed in this way; and hence their very existence depends on the sums they receive from the general government in the way of printing contracts. Itwonld not be of so much matter, if the public printing was preperly done—but it is not; for seldom is a document ready for the membere, or for distribution, when it is wanted, and almost always not for weeks, and in some cases, months afterwards. This has been a subject of complaint for years, and it will remain so until the present system is abolished, and anew one substituted. In lieu of the present corrupt and worthless sys- tem of public printing, there ought to be established at once a printing bureau of the Department of the Interior. The government ought to have its own types, preeses, printers, editors, and reporters. It should publish its own newspaper organ, and give full and complete reports of the proceedings of both houses of Congress. Such a newspaper should be sent to every public journal throughout the country, so thatthe people of the whole country might have a knowledge of what is going onin Washington, and what the government are doing and intend to do. It is eesential in a country like this that the mass of the community should be well acquainted with what the government is doing, and with its foreign and domestic policy, ia order that they should be able, when the periods of election come around, to vote discrimiaatiogty and judiciously, either in approbation or disapprobation of the con- duct of their public servants. The benefits which would flow from such on establishment are appam rent, and therefore need not be edverted to. On the score of expense, we are satisfied that such a bureau would not cost any more than the preseat tystem of public printing does; but even if it cost more, or even twice as much, it should be estab- “New York, Sunday, December 1, 1850, Summary of the Latest New The mteli gence which we received by tele- | gteph, last cvening, is painfully interesting. It will be seen, by the deepatches published im another | column, that a tomedo has recently visited Cape | Girardeau, on the Mississippi, which destroyed | several houses, and occasioned a great loss of life | among the inhebitants, several of whom are stated | as heving been killed. Seventy or eighty houses are reported as demolished. We also heer of the loss, by fire, of the steam- | boat Columbus, at the mouth of the Potomae, by | Which pine persons, or more, lost their lives; and that three steembouts were snagged on the Mis- | siesippi, and two more burned at Natchez.

Hamilton, it appears, has addressed a let- | ter to the people of South Carolina, in reference to the great question of the day, viz. the slavery agi- | tation.

The General | » his wey to Texas. The Governor of South | Careclina recommends in his message the removal | of ail free colored persons who do not own real estate or slave pooperty, from the limits of this State The question will soon be decided whether a Governor of one State can be errested under a re- quisition from the Executive of another State. A Warren! for the arrest of Gen. Quitman, Governor of Misciesippi, has been received in Natchez, ia consequence of his alleged participation in the Cubes invasion, and it will be interesting to see what action will be taken under it. This is the firet time, we believe, that a warrant has been | iseued egainet a Governor by a State, under such cirgometance ?. | - - ° ng European LnteiligenceCorres- pondence of the Heratd. The errival of the Europa’s mails has brought to band the varied correspondence of the Herald, from Paris, London, Berlin, and Manchester. The im- portent letters from each of these cities will be found to embrace a large number of facts and opirions, worthy of examination. Ovr London correspondent, with vi id enrnest- neve, pictures the great political aspect of the world, from time to time, in a sincere republican #pirit, ebove the rocislistic follies ef the day, and in bamony with the epirations of the masses of menkiod, now steadily in cearch of greater poli- | tical beppiness. Our Paris correspondeat—to | Whose attention we ere indebted for the proceed. wee in the Netional Aesembly, and for the im- | portent meesege of Lovis Nepoleon—which we | publish--hes euppled us, also, with ali items of in- terest in the gay capital of European polities and | fashion. From Berlin, we have a bird’seye-view | of alairs ia Germany—very clearly defined, and | quite requisite fer the full understanding of all | future movements, whether for peace or for war. | Our Meochester correspondent, also, has contri- buted a lively letier om various interesting topics, | Which will not pres uaneticed The correspondence of the Herald is becoming mote complete end varied, then it has been at any other period; and our arrangements are now made to exiensively that, in brief despatches, we shall be able wo present, from day to day, the entire his- tory of those events which mark the progress of | the world—our determination not being limited by | distence, or by difficulties of any kind.

Meet! Congress=Gevernment Printing | —Establishment of a Printing Bureau. To-morrow, the second session of the Thirty- first Congress will commence, and according to the constitution, it must terminate on the foarth ot Merch next. This will leave three montha, within which to perform all the business that was left over from the lest rersion, and also pay attention to such other matters as may have eprong up during the recess, or may spring up dur- ing the cession. If the members are at all indus- trious, they will have time enough to attend to everything that may require legislation, and to Jeave nothing unfinished. ‘We have frequently referred to the benefits that would flow to the government and to the country, by the organizatien of @ printing establishment, to ike connected with the government, and we retarn ; the country | navy, which will cost, this year, the enormous | sum of seventeen millions of dollars. lished, and the sooner the better. The govern- | ment of France has an institution of this kind, and | prints its own organ—the Moniteur. It gives ge- neral satisfaction, and is attended with the best re- eults. It would be an easy matter to organize a corps of competent reporters, and procure the ser- vices of able editors and assistants, if liberal emo- luments were offered to them. The pay should be liberal, in order to get the best talent in the coua- try. The government squanders millions of dol- lars every year, without conferring any benefit on Look, for instance, at the army and Of what use are theese expensive establishments, in time ef peece, although, perhaps, it may be necessary to have them? They only support and encourage idleneee, in anticipation of a war with some foreign power—en anticipation not likely to be realized during the present generation, for no foreign na- tion would dare to encounter our hostility. Such esteblishments may be needed in Europe, to keep the people from overturning their governments; but in this country, where the people make and un- | make their laws, and elect their rulers, they are, in time of perce, comparatively speaking, unneces- sery. The public mind is becoming more and more averse to the continuance of an expensive navy for the mere purposes of war; but no objection is made towards increasing, to any extent, the num- ber of ocean steamships, to be commanded by naval officers, and to be used in time of peace for the trenspertation of the government niails, ac well as freight and passengers. This country ought toown a hundred of such vessels, capable of beiag con- verted into war steemships in &@ short time when necessary. Now, what benefits do the army and navy confer on the country in time of peace, at an expense of seventeen millions of dollars a year, compared to those of a government printing estab- lishment, at an expense cay of two millions of dol- lors annually? None. We therefore hope that this important subject will oceupy the attention of both houses of Congress during the coming ehort session. It is full time to putenendto the abominably corrupt, imperfeet, uneatiefectory and inefficient system under which the public printing has been done for eo maoy yeers Leta printing bureau be established; let the government publish its own organ of commu- nicetion with the people, employ its editors and reporters, and have the public printing executed by * own egente, and under its owa supervision Such an establighme nt, we are satisfied, would give general eatisfaction, and would be ‘hailed with pleasure by the whole country. Coxpition axp Prosrects or Cvna.—By every arrival from Cuba we learn that the authorities are under continua! alarm and conetant feer of another invasion of that island, by armed bands from the United States. Accordingly, the army is kept ia readiness for immediate service; and a large fleet is ever on the watch, ready to capture and destroy any expedition that may approach the island with hostile motives. A perfect espionage like- wire exists there; and all who are suspected of being connected with parties in the United States in cesigns to create a revolation, are arrested and put in prison. Within a short time, Don Pupillio Valiente, a wealthy merchant and native of St. Jago, Den Louis Olloa, a native of Old Spain, and Don Tomas Bianco, a native of Cuba, have all been arrested and confined in Moro Castle, on suspicion of being connected with people in the United States, who are determined to produce a revolution in Cuba, if possible. We look upon ell this: alarm and anxiety and preparations as entirely unnecessary, and as en- tailing expense and trouble to po purpose. The people of the United States are willing that Spain shell hold Cuba as long as she pleases, or as long as she con. They would object, however, to her transferring her sovereignty over it to any other European power. It is so situated that they would never consent that France or England, or any other great nation of the old world, should hold it. As for another expedition being fitted out in the United States, it is all moonshine. Those who eo gal- lantly ran away from Cardenas last spring, could not be enticed by any inducement that might be offered to them to risk their precious lives in st tempting a second time to effect a revolution in Cuba. In regard to the rumors and reports of ex- | peditions in the United States, we are perfectly ratistied they are without foundation, and got up by some obscure journals, for the purpose of attract- ing attention and making a sensation, The pre- sent administration will, no doubt, take care that our treaty obligstions with Spain and the law of nations shall be respected, as far as their power extends.

This bas little to do with Parodi, but it is a bint worthy of serious consideration of the realms ot fashion, if anything serious or sensible can be found in it. “Gemma di Vergy” is one of the most beautiful operas of maestro Donizetti. In personating the chief character, Parodi bas again created such «furore as is without parallel in this country. She seems to meke a new triumph at everystep. That unsurpassed voice of bers, the melodious tones of which flow equally pure and strong from her low, middle, or upper notes, thrilled, last night, every soul capable of appreciating the highest and most unquestionable excellence— while ber musical knowledge, guiding the facile and powerful organ, gave that delicious charm of security to the auditor, which at once lulled him into conf- dence, from which be could only be startled by the Biddonian power of the inimitable actress, whose every look, gesture, motion and step convinced him that he was in the presence of one whose genius, gifts, and rbill in her art bas made her first im the ranks of lyric greatness. We have not tpace to analyze the cpera. or the scenes even,in which Parodi appears. wi all not do her the injurtice to eay that “Gemma” is her most marked trivmph—though @ thoussod thought so—because everything she attempts is as oy as it well cam be, avd folly omly will dwell upon is own selfish plessure. instead of, according to the artisie, the merit to which she is entitled. 1¢ is enovgh to say thet Parodi is as great as“ Gem- mi’’as she is in‘ Norma” or ‘ Lucrezia Borgia.” wd doubtless, think she surpasres these by Ler last tri- vmph, We think not ro—but we are quite free to ac- knowledge that she surparres all lyzic voeulists in the varied qualities which coustitute perfection— and that ought to be sefficient (o amuse any dormant curiosity ip the metropolis. On Monday Parodi will repeat her perscnation of the character of Gemma, and as she is soon to leave the city, those who ey 4 desire to hear the most wonderful vecalist that the omg stage now Doasts. should be present on this occesion, which will be an interesting one.

However, the enterprising Maretzek rbould not increase his = errunany risks The masical taste of New ork ts net whet it ought to be, and if Bettini could be engaged, it rhould only be for a night or two. On the whole, we think we must wait for Bettini till the Hiavane troupe returns, Parodi is quite treat enough for us for the present—and when we have fully ap preciated ber, it will be time to ask Maretzek fora tenor equal to the best.

ANDREW'S SOCIETY. SPEECH OF SIR HENRY BULWER, ke. &e., He. ‘The anniversary festival of the 8t. Andrew's Sockty was celebrated, last evening, by ® splendid entertain- ment at the Irving House. The dining-hall, which frente on Chambers street, was appropriated for the occasion, aud was appropriately ornamented with flags and other devices. Two tables were spread, oosupying nearly the entire length of the hall, with » cross table at the head of the room. At thiscross table was seated the President of the Society, supported on either side by the officers of the various benevolent societies in this city, Bir Henry Bulwer, Mr. Bunch, acting Coneul for H. B. M., at this port, and several other invited guests, The tables were laid in admirable taste, and, eo far as the arrangements of the hotel were concerned, nothing was wanting to make the guests as comforta- Die as possible. The company sat down to dinner at about 64 o'clock. After full justice was done to the entertainments provided for the occasion, the cloth was removed, and Ricbard Irvin, Eeq., the President of the seciety, made epeeeh, introductory of the festivities of the evening, Brothers of the Saint Andrew's Bociety, said he, I have 60 often addressed you on previous anviversaries, that I might well dispense with saying anything this even- ing, but I can’t deny myself the pleasure of congratu- lating you on the continued prosperity of your society, (Applause) During the past year, more than eight hundred persens have shared of your bounty. By far the largest portion of our funds has been expended on good and worthy persons—many of whom are widows end mudall children, all of them having been deprived by the wisdom of Provi- de of the means-of providing for their own support. Ican truly say, there is no charity with whieh I am acquainted, that is distributed with more discrimination, and none which has accomplished more good in proportion to its resources. (Applause.) You are all aware that our society was established a great many years ago by « tew Scot who, al- though far from their native land did mot forget it. From the organisation of this soceity to the present day it has endeavored to fulfil the end jor which it was detigned. Since then New York bas increased prodl- sepa in population, but even now ix, perhaps. only jo. its fi cy Our avsociation bas pe with its rowih, and let us hope that it will continue to lo so. Let us hope that in the sphere of use- fulness it will increase as rapidly as does this mighty metropolis, (Applause.) Let us take? care thet in our bands this institution shall not suffer any diminution im its usefulness. (Applause) Al- low we row, my countrymen, to congratuiate you, bere. this evening on the retarn of our aopiversary, eousecreted, as it is, by our constitution, and in our heerts, to the harmony of rocial faterecurse and bro- therly love. How can we better subserve the the ends for which we ere organized, than by ether on this mem rable day, and ay ‘rith each other, and talkin romantic land of our futher: Our feet are not on their nati plains and ruoning streams, and craggy mountains of connie Scotland ure far away, but yet they bef ur—memory brings them to our recollection.
