OLYMPIO-Paxon awa ov Inui York, ratui a Week Later 1 from aneys. The s'eam ship Canada is in her fourteenth day. We had not heurd of her arrival at Halifax at two @’clock this mornin Summary of the Latest fateltigence. The New York branch mint bili was discussed @t considerable length yesterday, and as argu- qacnt bas been exhausted on the subject, we may expect the passage of the bill to-day. Mr. Chand- ler, of Philadelphia, opposed it on Thursday, and another representative of the same State opposed mR yesterday. We should be sorry to suppose that the sentiments which those gentlemen uttered were entertained by their constituents. Were swch the case, we would entertain a much smaller Opinion of them than we do. Ever since the ques- tion of establishing a branch mint ia New York ‘was brought-to the notice of Congress, it hasbeen meanly and snenkingly opposed by representatives from Pevnsylvania—for no othet reason, that we ean divine, than that New York has outstripped Philadelphia, and made it one of its sudurba, like Williameburgh, or the new village -of Green Point, on the East river. Well, be itso. New York mey have it in her power at some fetare time to reeiprocate. We are happy ia being able to state that the bill will pass, notwithstanding the opposition of Philadelphia. | In the Senate, Mr. Hale, of New Hampshire, who is an exceedingly moral man, received a well merited castigation yesterday from Mr. Clay, in a discussion concerning the Spanish edaims, on account of the capture of the Amstad, few years since. Mr. Clay touched him in a sore place, and Mr. Hale felt it. His reply wee per- fectly characteristic. The resolution offered by Mr. Rusk, concerning dead letters in the post offices in California and New Mexico, was passed yesterday. It provides that the dead letters remaining in post offices in California and Oregon, shall be opened in Cak- fornia, by the Postmaster at San Francisco, anda special agent, to | eappointed—all letters not con- teining valuables to be destroyed there—those con- taining valuables to be sent to the department at Washisgton—the special agent to be appointed ata | salery of twenty-five hundred doliars The amendment proposed to the California land title bill, to the effect that twenty years possession of land in that State sha!l be deemed « perfect claim | | ‘up some one of the prominent candidates we have named, to do duty for the next six years in th® Senatorial ranks. By Monday we shall know something of the sequel, and on Tuesday the poli- tical game will commence in downright earnest. Meanwhile, we shall look on and see what is in the wind, We give, under our telegraphic head, an account of the last moments, execution, and confession of Reuben Dunber, for the murder of David and Ste- phea V. Lester, in the town of Westerlo, in this State, some time since. A more attrocious murder was never committed. Mr. sohn R. Thompson has been selected ia ‘caucus by the democratic members of the Legisla- ture of New Jersey, as their candidate for the United States Senate. He will, doubtless, be elected. Mr. Thompson is intimately connected with rcilroacs in New Jersey. The cold weather still prevails throughout the coumry. At Quebec, yesterday, the mercury was at thirteen degrees below zero in the lower town, and at nineteen in the upper. CELEBRATION OF THE BirtHpay or Wasuina- ToN.—The Union Safety Committee have made an appeal to the people in behalf of a more fraternal feeling than has existed for the past two or three years, between the various sections of the Union. They conclude their address as follows:— The birthday of Warhington approaches; let us unite in celebrating that day; let it be « day of uni- versal rejoicing; let us all cailto mind his many vir- tues; let us acsemble in every city, every town, every vill d every hamlet, throughout this vast coun- try, extending fromthe Atlantic to the Pacific, and hear the Farewell Address ef the Father of kis country read to assembled citizens. Let us meditate upon his words of wisdom; let us drink largely from this origi- nal fountain of patriotism, and we cannot doubt that the effect wil] be, not perhaps to make us argue more acutely, but to make us feel like Americans, and under thie teeling to repudiate alike ail disorganizers -to make us feel that we are truly one people, and that as | such, united under one govermment, we hold a trast for ourselves, our posterity and mankind, of more va- lve than was ever committed to any other natioa. This is a happy suggestion, and should be car- ried out everywhere, with an enthusiasm that may have a permanent iafluence on the dispositions of the whole people, who have too long been hurried forward into party toils, and made to contrtbute, by political organizations, to conduct which no lover of his country can justify or desire. We cannot too often read the Farewell Address of the Father of his coustry, or too often refresh our me- mories with the history of his life and of his eer- vices to his country. At first made President of the Convention, he was afterwards, in 1789, called to act as President of the United States, and cheerfully devoted all his influenée for the formation of the new goverament. Surrounded by the disheartening diflicuities which occurred at that time, from diflereaces of opiaion among the people, a large number of whom were unfavorably disposed towards the measures adopt- ed, the national government must have perished but for the decision of character and wisdom ot Washington. Duriog his first term the world was convulsed with the French revolution, and his moderation and prudence were eeverely tried. Genet, the Minister of the French republic, with his adherents, assailed him ia official papers, in libels, and in noisy public meetings. He stood firm, however, during the storm, and in the course of the struggle his personal character gave to the government that dignity and force which could not be derived from the legal powers of his office. Such a man can never be forgotten wuile liber- ty has a foothold on the earth; and it is well for us, on the acniversary of his birth, to come together at our political altars, to quicken that leve of country which the dangerous tactics of party politics always tend to destroy. The hietcry of 10 men that this country has pro- duced, can furnish an example for our admira- tion equal to that which the conduct and character of Washington inspire. We owe the Union under which we flourish to his sagacity, foresight, discre- tion and well-tempered zeal. His correspondence forniches us with keys to his character, with which we cannot be two well acquainted. He did more for us than all the other patriots of the re- volution. John Adams had less of a national charecter, end Jefferson was in France whea the provisional government of this couatry was totter- pg esd in danger, aud without power or promise. ‘The extension of liberty, and of our popular form of government, sprung from the Revolutionary Con- gress, which wes established by delegates from conventions of the people. A national union, for against the l'nited States, was rejected. We are pleased at this, because, es we learn, it would con- | firm doubtful titles of the church to a vast amount of property, if it were passed. New Mexico, :t ceemsa, asks admissioa into the Union as a State. The subject was referted to the Committee on Territories. We regret to learn that Mr a member of the House from Texas, died last eve- ning. Cur Washington correspondent informs us telegraph, that he left his seat in the House at twe e’clock in the afternoon, epperently in robust health, end that he died in the evening. Truly, * in the midet of life we are in death’ Of cour mo bueiness will be transacted ia either house day, in consequence of the sad The vacancy to be filled ia the Senate of the United States, by the retiremeat of the Hoa.

We think present indications show that New York wil display the fact—so sig nally shown by Messachusetts, Rhode Isiand and other States —that the old party hedges an es are too weak to hoid the consciences and deter minations of men—ar » too, shall have ou share of coalitions, b. tings and curious results ee well a8 our neighbor States in New Eag/and Harnilton Fieh will be sustained by the periching Sewar faciew, with all the wer that can be | brought to operate on the Legislatur Union men, or ‘he silver greya " will be a terrible pha'anx, they combine with Francie Granger, or Mr. Ph a3 champion, to create the necessary confusion to defeat their own object and Hamilton Fish at the same time.

This is the great point; and for auch © purpose as defeating Weed and Seward’s dewigne,’there is a probability that there will be first a coalition between the silver greys and the demo- erate— then a grend flare-up —and at laet will turn | theories, and the euye | on a firm foundation. | by Woshington cf a r | cognized, end power | one rolid p | a hundred thous | they held to be the public netiona! pu pores, now arose from he, chaos of tructure ef the liberties and indepe: dence of the United States was settled Athis residence, in Mount Vernon, in March, 1756, the first idea was started ival of the articles of confederation, ‘y an organization differing from that between the Stat- legislatures and their dele- gates in Corgrees.

We have referred to this measure heretofore as one 0° very great imporence to all concerned in the landed property of California. The debate ex- | nib ts it to be, aleo, one of the most knotty and dif. ficult questions of adjustmeat. There are various kinds of titles to the lands ct California.

Mr. Chatfield, it appears, has at length run the length of his tether—his power to do mis- chief has been taken away from him—he has been. ecalled by the Bridsh government, aud has had the privilege extended to him of retiring into pri- vate lite. This fact was not generally known in Nicaragua, and we have no doubt there will be great rejoicing whea jt is promulgated throughout out Albert Van Sauston as the man on questioned about it. who struck the man. who weat out, Ile atter the gids strike him, but only with ted that he struck him en t with « slang sand of every one ot the sbot must have been u-ed, from wards admitted that Bis'aet. i then played cards for auother drink, » the length and breadth of Central America.

He acted as if he were the very incarnation of mischief, and he was never at ease unless he was hatching some scheme to create difficulty between the Central American republica, or between them and the British government. Few persons in either the United States or Central America will regret his recall. Our intelligence in regard to the great ship canal is very interesting. It had been reported that the agents of the company were doing nothing; that they were engeged merely in constructing a com- munication for the trensportation of passengers be- tween the two oceans, and that the surveying of a route for a great ship canal was abandoned. Their engineers, too, were represented as incompetent for such an undertaking, and it was stated that no pro- grees had been made in the survey. Wenow learn that all this is wrorg. By the intelligence we bave received, we have every reason to believe that four distinct surveys of four distinct routes have been made by the corps of engineers in the employ of the company, and that the last one, which has been determined on by the company, offers every facility for the construction of a grand s! canal, at an expense far lees than what was antici- pated when the company commenced operations According to the terms of agreement entered into with the chief engineer, Oscar W. Childs, so well known in this community for his connection, in his professional capacity, with some of our great internal improvements, that gentleman, with a corps ef able assistants, sailed from this city in July last, and immediately on his arrival in Nica- ragua entered upon the duties entrusted to him The result is that the survey has been com- pleted, an excellent route decided upon, and ia a short ume the work of digging will be commenced, if indeed it has net been begum already. It was firet supposed that the terminus of the ehip canel would be at Realejo, but a shorter, a better, and a less expensive route has been decided upon. This invelligence will be hailed with pleasure by the American people, end it will be received with great satisfaction by the mercantile community of Enuland, who have almost az much interest in the construction of this great work as we have our- selves. This company are engaged in another project, which, like the other, is of great importance, espe- cially to the United States. They are constructing a communication between the AUantic and the Paci- fic, for the transportation of passengers, via the — ‘ Juan river end lake Nicaragua, to the Par San Juan is obstructea by rapids and rocks, which, up to this time, have rendered it unnavigable. It has been aecertained, however, that the rocks can be removed at a comparatively trifling expense, and that the rapids can be overcome by a steam- boat, capable of running at a speed of twelve miles anhour. A competent engineer has been recently deepatched from here, to remove the rocks by blasting, end it is expected that ina short time he will have succeeded in removing them. The shallowness of the water affords great facilities for succesefully blasting them. Steamers are ready, or nearly 0, to be placed on that river and on the Inke, as well as between this city and San Juan, and between the terminus on the Pacific and San Frenciseo. Within sixty“days the company will be prepared to contract for the conveyance of passengers between New York and Sen Francisco, by this Lew route. it ie needless to refer to the importance of a ship cenal comnecting the Atlantic with the Pacific. The mbject has been discussed time and agaia, apd the more it was discussed the more apparent it beceme that it would effect a revolution in the commerce of the world. In fact, the mind is be wil- dered when it undertakes to grasp at one view the vast results which are certain to follow from it. We haye the best reason for knowing that no unnecessary delay will take place, and ‘vat the canal will be completed as sooa as poseible ‘There was a stick found on the floor, but there were no warks of blood upon it. All the parties were then taken to the Second ward station-house, where they were locked up for the night.
