It is for wretches of this de- scription, as well as for a general watchfulness over citizens disposed to break the’health regulations and similar ordinances of the city, that a day police is required. How efficient it may be made, will be found when the activity of the police magistrates is in harmony with that of those men who are con- stantly on guard as the custodians of the good order of the people. It 18 not through the police regulations, or through the city ordinances alone, however, that New York is capable of being made a remarkably healthy and desirable place of residence. Nature has boun- tifully supplied her on two sides with rivers, in which the tides carry out to the sea the waste of sewers, virtually cleansing the city every day; while an abundance ot Croton water is supplied by the public aqueducts, to wash away from the streets all the garbage and filth that may accumu- late inso great a metropolis. Abuses, of course, interfere with the means of preserving the cleanli- ness and comfort of the city from these advan- tages; but any observer must be aware that witha well directed police every infraction of the law, in perpetrating nuisances, may be met with pumish- meat, if those who convert the streets into sewers are only made liable to the penalties which their conduct merits. The Jaws themselves are abun- dantly stringent. The whole trouble has been that we have had no chief magistrate]]who has dared to look beyond the action of his predecessors, into those specifications of duty, which should always be the guides of cur Mayor. Still, we are happy to be- lieve that a favorable change has commenced. TRIPLER UALL—Gnravy Concent. OLYMPIC ~Pawonama oF IRELAND. One Week Later from Europe. ‘The steamship Arctic, Captain Luce, will be dus te-night from Liverpeol, with one week's later news from Europe, and iatelligence of the safety of the Atlantic Telegraphic Sammary, The most interesting piece of intelligence which we received by telegraph last evening, was the fact of the election of Mr. HS. Geyer, whig, as Se- nator of the United States, in plac of Col Beaton, whose term of office will expire on the fourth of March next. This question, therefore, which has excited so much interest throughout the whole country, has at length been setled, and Colonel Benton has been over-slaughed. It teok forty ballottings to dispose of it. We did not at any t me suppose that the Colenel could have been re-elected, notwith- standing the numerous reports to that effect which eemeto hend. Barring all his egotism, Colonel Benton was a valuable member of the Senate, and his absence from that body will be felt. He is em- phatically « practical man, and pos-esses a vast dee] of valuable intormation, which he acquired during his long senatorial experience. His suceessor will be an acquisition to the Senate, Mf he prove himself as able in committee or in debate as Col. Barton has always been ackaow- ledged to be. He hes been longer in the Senate then azy other member of that body, having been elected in 1821, when Missouri wos admi ‘ed asa Stete. He and the late David Bento: were elect ed together, and for nearly thirty coasecutive years, he has retained his seat in the Senate. Col. Benton may now be consider ed as politically dead, for the democratic par- ty is eo divided in Missouri that he cannot be re- turned to even the lower House. He was game to | the last, and so were his friends and supporters. In none of the ballottings did he geta single whig vote towards his re-election, nor did any of his friends vote for the whig candidate. Mr. Geyer's election was eflected by the votes of the whigs and ant-Hentonians. Aceording to all appearances Col. Fremont, his son-ia law, will not be re-elect- @4 to the Senate from ‘alifernia, in consequeace of the great unpopularity of his land bill. It will be a curious coincidence, if both father in-law and son-in. !sw are deprived of their seatsia the Senate. Col. Benton’s history i# too well known to need apy particular reference to it. He was at one time vivlently opposed to General Jackson, but af- terwards supported him, and was one of the great- est and ablest edvocau the country for a gold and si!ver currency. His refusal to vote according to the instructions of the Missouri Legislature, on the slavery question, was the immediate cause of his defeat. Mr. Geyer, his successor, is avout sixty five yearsof age. There ia, as yet, no choice of Senator in Massachusetts. The French Spoliation bill was ordered to be en- groveed in the United States Senate yesterday, As | soon ov this aflair is out of the way, we shall expect that body to be more industrious than they have been since the commencement of the present see sien. The House of Representative: were en- gseed with the appropriation bills, to supply defi- @iencies, end other matters The patriotic resolutions, offered by Mr. Thomp- son, in the Assembly of this State, a few days since, have been referred to the Judiciary Commit. tee, wih and other resolutions of a similar cherecter were cflered yesterday, by Mr. Varnum, of New York structions The Enforcement of the City Ordinances— The New Broom Sweeping tn the Might Di- ren New York ina grea been well fortified t 1. | growing city, and has oces calculated to ren- der it ae healthy, clean and comfortable as any me- trepolis on the face of the earth.

Tf there are any rea- sone for coms hey ave usually chergeable on thore who ere authority, rather thaa upea the regulati which the law has lad dewn for en- forcement.

There are maoy | | carry with them the confidence of the people of | these States, and Hitherto, little has been done to sustain that cha- racter for the city which its laws would justify a stranger in believing it must possess. Our city re- ports pow exhibit, from day to day, very great signs of an improvement. The regulations for the better conduct of omnibus drivers are enforced with a degree of zeal that has already produced a | marked change in the business of that useful but | too often indiscreet class of individuals. The hack- | mney coach drivers will, very properly, come in for some atten on also. They are often most abusive and law-defying men, though licensed by the city governme Untrue to the interests of their pro- prieters, they extort largely from strangers; and are too often: aected with establishments ef ill- repute, to which they have the boldness, some- | times, to take innocent and unsuspicious females. However, we cannot catalogue the enormities which the history of the police andthe experience of society display in connection with their vova- tion. few of them abide by the city regulations as to fares, and the sooner a few public examples are made of them infractione of the law, the better | will it be for the community. Our Mayor has made a good beginning. The re- | paire and cleansing of the pudlic thoroughfares, | for which our c:tizens have always been heavily system generally has been made more efficient— infrections of the law, in every quarter, are visited | with exposure and punishment—and the public | good seems to be rising paramount to the mere pleasure of party and of individual profit among the members of the city government. The oaly fear is that so acceptable a beginning may too speedily terminate--that theexertions of the Mayor and his officers will be relaxed, and that, in a few | months, the reform, in which all good citizens have | rejoiced, will be a dream of the past. We hope it; may not beso. We hope that Mr Kingsland will rise superior to all considerations but those con- al laws, Tux Execrion or Unrrep States Sexators.— The Statec of New Yerk and New Jersey are shortly to choose each a United States Senator, | Interesting f-om Mexico. PRESIDENT ARISTA~HIS CABINET—MURDER, ETC, We received, Our files of Mextoan papers’ ‘There is but little of interest in the papers, beyoad what we copy from the New Orleans journals. (en. Arista, the President elect, was to be imaugurated on the 15th of this month, but it was not known who were to compose his cabinet. The Monitor, and other papers, were filled with the names of the prominent men for the various departments. We are inclined to believe, trom our private advices, that the administra- tion will consist of the following :—D. Mariano Yanes, Minister of Foreign and Interior Relations; D. Jose Godoy, Minister of Justice; Colonel Manuel Robles, Minister of War and Marine; and D, Manuel Psyno, Minister of Finance. This would be entirely new cabinet, except in the treasury. Senor Payno will remain in office, and it is creditable to Arista’s independence and discern- ment to retain him im his councils. Payno is un- ibtedly the most promising young man in Mexico, and has conducted his department to the admiration of all. Gen. Arista has a large majority of both houses of Congress in his favor, and will therefere be able to carry through the measures he may propose. ‘The attack upon the authority and influenee of the church has already commenced, as was anticipated from Arista’s election. The Monitor, the orgen of the President elect, openly charges the clergy with taking part against the government, and inciting the people to rise up against it. Some time since, the Minister of Justice ordered that all publishers should be prosecuted who printed any books or pamphlets which the ehurch had denounced. Thereupon the Minister was accused peared, entitled “ Legal Opinions and other documents relative to the prohibition of printing, by the eocles!- astical authority.’ This volume contain, the argu- ments of Senors Lares and Oliguibel on the one side, and that of the Minister on the other. Oliguibel is the moat eminent lawyer of Mexico and, President of the Senat * From these,” says the Monitor, “it is evident that the Minister bas infringed upon the con- stitution and laws... ‘The Minister of Finance has given notice that the bureau of liquidation of accounts will consist of Senors Causeco, Prieto, and Nuiies; the junta of public credit of Benors Mier y Teran, Echeveria, Navarre, Gutieres, Joaquin de Rosas, Yaiiez, and Medina. These geatie- men, who ere bankers and public creditors, will, of course, belp themeelves first out of the treasury. The Post Office Department has published the new regulation of the mail service with the United States, and of the dayson which the steamers will arrive at and leave Vera Cruz during January and February, These mails are carried under the contract made re- cently with Col. Ramsay, and one of the steamers has already performed its first trip. In consequence of this new arrangement, the British steamer did mot stop at Vera Cruz for the English mails. as we infer from the following articl+ in a Vera Cruz paper: — ENGLISH PabKer. There is no doubt that this steamer has returned to Kingston and 8t Thomas. and the correspondence of the republic, tor this moath will be detained to Janu- ary, unless those interested avail themselves of the | opportunity to send it by the way of the Uniced | Btates The steamer Alabama can now do this ser nick of time. been announced. that Mr Doyle. the British Miaister, has ordered the Consul to forward forthwith, by the way of the United Seates, the correspoadence tor the last English steamer destined for Europe, This cor- respondence is remaining at the Consul’s serious prejudice to our commerce with Eutope among them the American Secretary of Legation.

Tnuasvar, Jon. 23—6 P. M. ‘The stock market was very unsettled this morning. Prices fluctuated considerably. The transactions continue large, the bulk of which is for oash. Long Island tcok another start upward to-day, and Cantom Company took astartdownward. The movements im these two stocks aye curious, amd past finding out. There were sales of Canton this morning on time, sell- er’s option, ninety days, at eight and @ half per eent below the caeh price. The market works very strange- ly, and we are looking every day for a ‘collapse that will use up about one-half of those who have beem paying such prices for this stock as have beem eur rent during the past four or five days. The object there speculators have so transparent that it can be easily seen through. If there was one-half in the stock, represented, with proper ma- nagement purchasers eould have got hold of nearly every share of the entire capital, below sixty per oemt~ The principal object has been to run the market price up ro far above par that the bears would rush in and sell the meelves largely short, and get oaught In the trap tet for them, The bears have been too cautious for this and purchasers will have to keep the stock, or accepts the only alterpative—sell at a heavy loss. Long Island was quite active. There is not a broker in Wall street, or an outsider in the habit of operating in this mar- ket, who would touch this stock at present prices, It bas no valu ver had any value—and the prebabili-- ty is that it never will have any. The capital stook, at- present prices, amounts to five hundred thousand, dollars, whieh is likely to be sunk by the sale in Aprifi next. This is # fine prospect for buyers. Portsmouth Dry Doek has risen rapidly during the past week. This is a land company, located at an important point: on the Obio River—a piace destined to be one of ma- nulacturing importance second to none other in tha rection of country, Land stocks have lately beoome | tavorites with speoulators, and as their value, tor some It in one of the most magnificen® productions that has | time past, has only beem Known to those immediately connected with them, they bave ruied at very low Frices—prices much below their actual value for per- manent investments. Morris was heavy, to-day, A meeting of the board of direetors was held, to-day, in Jersey City, in relation to the consolidation of the old stock into new, according to the supplement to the charter passed in February, 1849. We do not know that there is any objection to that movement; but if there is, it cam avail nothing in the tace of the law- We believe the president of the Morris Vanal Compa- ny was president of the Senate of New Jersey when that law was parsed, and his experience as a logislator is sufficient to convince him that |. which are made upon application of an imcorporated body, cannot be evsded with impunity. At the firet board, to-day, Illinois State Bank wapt up 1% per cent; Edgeworth Company, 4; Portamouth Dry Dock, 94; Hudson River Railroad, %; Loug Island X. Stonington declined 2!4 per ovnt; Morris Uanal ‘i; Canton Company, 3; Krie Railroad, 34; Reading Railroad, 4; Harlem, 4. The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port, today, amounted to $90,285 55; pay ments, $2,759 60 — balance, $3 446,032 49. At the eecond boerd Farmers’ Loan fell of \ per cent; Reading Railroad, %;; Erie Railroad, 4 ; ston- ington, 2}. Edgeworth advanced }, perceat; Ports- meuth Dry Dock,14. The decline in Stonington wae cauted by the announcement that the beats now con- necting with that line would be withdrawn on the Ist ot February, when the present contract expires, un- less tue company purehased them, A few days ase this stock rold at fifty-reven; it now sells at forty- seven. There is no doubt but that those acqusiated with the fact that the steamboat contract expired om the Ist of February, sold out at high prices. If the parties controlling the boats ean get the stock down forty, they may buy in again, and renew their contract with the rsilroud company. The company would bein a tight place it compelled to buy beats to keep the line open, and would ultimately meet the fate of the Leng Isiand Company. This is another instance of how blindly people rush into stoek speculations, how littie they know about what they are buyi d what little value there really is in eves the best fancy stock. ‘Two thourand one hundred and forty-seven shares of Hartford and New Ha Railroad stock were sold at suction to-day, at prices ranging from 130 to 180% per cent. The Harlem Railroad Company have deslared « semi-annual dividend of two per cent, payable on the 4th ot February, We are glad to see that the city authorities a: corner of the Park, on Broadway, with » turn out, so as to accommodate two cars. This wili enable the company to so arrange it that the moment one car arrives down, the other will leave. This will add largely to the receipts of the company At & meeting of the friends of the Syracuse and Binghamton Railroad, held in Syracuse a few days oe, & committee was appointed to goto Penusylva- nia and New Jersey, to obtain all the information pos- sible im relation to the railroad now beiag ecnstruc’ called the Routh Gap road, amd also the Prospects of ‘other roud said to be in contemplation, connecting with that road, aud running through the State of New Jersey to Jersey City.
