Arrival of the Canada, The Canada arrived at Halifax, yesterday, with one week’s later news from Europe. We regret to announce that she brings no intelligence of the Atlantic. We fully believe, however, that we shall learn by the next steamer, the Africa, of her safe arrival at Cork, or some other Irish port. The political news by the Canada is of :mpor- tance. The crisis in France was not over, and it ‘was quite uncertain how it wou'd end. The Presi- deat appeared firm, but it was feared that the new eabinet would have to go by the board. Lamar- time had joined the President, and was speaking in his defence at the latest date. The troubles in Germany were on the eve of a final settlement. The Schleswig-Holstein war was over, the King of Denmark having, by the aid of Austria and Prussia, gained his point. There had been a decline of one-eighth toa quarter of a penny in the Liverpool cotton market. ‘The Senatorial Excitementin Albany. According to present indications there will be a great deal of difficulty in electing a United States Senator from this State. There is a screw loose among the whigs; it is almost certain the Union men, or silver greys, will not sustain Hamilton Fish. be placed in an unpleasant predicament. It may be that Thurlow Weed, who has so long officiated as State barber, may have changed his vocation and become State underteker, He has shaved & great many office’ seekers . and politicians m hie day, and it would be quite rational for him in hie old age to prepare them forthe grave. The democratic members of the Legislature had a caucus, fand determined at first, by a vote of thirty-eeven to twenty-five, pot to make any no” mination, but afterwards they rescinded their vote and nominated ex-Senator John A. Dix. This Jeoks suspicious. Thie will puzzle the Seward ites. The election is fixed for to-day; but there fill be some fun before Mr. Fish is elected. The Presidential Question — Progress and Prespects of the Game. Very little progress is making in the Presidential question. The oldest and most sagacious politicians ‘at Woshington have failed to lay down the basis of great Union party, the only organization upon which a President could now be insured by the people. Father Ritchie has, by authority, whistled the propored Union Convention of the 22d of Feb- raary down the wind. That is the end of a series of Union conventions proposed to be held through- ut the coun'ry, beginning at Wi ton. An- ether Congressional experiment, in the form of a temperance pledge, {ailing to seeure General Cass, Mr. Dickinson, Mr Douglas, or indeed any of the Northern democrats, has also run aground. That craft carried too much sail, and too little ballast. The political managers, therefore, at Washington have failed to do anything; and the chaos of politi- cal parties, resulting from the slavery compromises, gtands pretty much the same as on the first Mon- day in December last, when the bodies of the kill- od and wounded covered the field Between the two old parties in the North, the nullifiers, or free sot! faction, have risen into the importance of a party. In the South, the Southern rights party, or Southern ultras, stand between the old whig and democratic societies—more powerful than either, single-handed, and only to be mastered by acombination of both. |t must be concededs that the mase of the Southern ultras are from the democratic ranks, while the whig party of the South, almost intact, stand upon he platform of the slavery adjustment. If the Southern conservative democrats, then, unite with the whig party of the South upon the compromise basis, the Southera ee will be turned over io the whige. Without such a janet nservative Southern demo- erate will be left in a hopeless minority, and the ultras will sweep the field, from Mason © Dixon's lime to Texas. But the attempts at thie combina- thon have failed. The Northern democrats die @ountenance the arraagement be done! From al! the indications of the last the elections of last fall-—the Northera and South ere political agitauione—the recent singular com- timations and results in the election of United States Senators; and from we failures to get up a Union meeting by the Castle Garden Union Safety Comm. itier, and the Union Safety politicians at Washington, the following seem to be the most plausible conclusions for the fatere There being 00 prospect of amalgamation be- tween the whigs and democrats of the old hunker or conservative orders, upon a pational platform, we may count wpon two national candidates, a | whig and a democrat. We also count with great confidence upon another Buffalo candidate; and the prospect is equally fair for an ultra Southern candidate, according to the recommendation of the Nashville Convention. And if Gea. Scott should be taken up spontaneously by the people, and should run without a platfyrm, without pledges, and without promises, we shall have five very im- teresting candidates in the field, exclusive of Chap lin. Chaplin w make eix The admivistraion can and probably will con | trol the vational whig nomination—and the man must be on endorser of the compromises. This would hardly be the game for Gen. Seott. ticket is hie own independent and uncrammelled | military renown. The Pagitive law would bean impediment ia the North to Chapultepec; and the admission of California would dim () Churubusco in the South. The best poi whige would be to run a good stiff const maa in the South upon a platform, and ia the North without a platform, and without ay ether pledge then a pledge to abstain religiously from all jetter writing. Upon thie plan, one, and perhape both, of the whig candidates might be car- ried into the Heuse With the conservative Northera democrats, Gen aes ie stil] the favorite man. I! © patriotic ce lustre o If it should turn out so, the Sewardstes will | What, then, is to | y moaths— | His | operation with Mr. Clay, Mr. Webster, and the ad- ministration, upon the compromise measures, has * vied whig prejudices against him, aad dis- them of any disposition to fe-enact the vimer hostility of 1848. He stands upon the ground cof the slavery adjustment. Flom his popularity in the northwest, he has, we suspect, the fairest pros- pect of becoming the national democratic nominee; and if successful in being aimitted to the House, as one of the three foremost candidates in the race, it would be easy, perhaps, to rig up a plat- form, under shelter of a democratic majority, which would secure the election of General Cass. It is so manifest that the policy of the South is to carry the election up to the House— it is so probable the thing will be done, that we may venture to predict, with some confidence, that the policy of the next President will be a strong constitutional State rights policy; dictated by the South in the House of Representatives. It may be Webster, or'Fillmore, or Cass, or Buchanan, or apy one else; but the Scuth in the House—and only in the House—will hold his election in their hands. Such are present appearances. But chaos still continues. Nominalty, the two old parties still exist, though their ranks are broken up and dis- persed. The election of a President for France, ia 1852, is scarcely more difficult of conjecture than our own election. France may have an Emperor, a King, or a Dictator, in the disguise of a Presi- dent. Instead of an election, the result may be determined by bayonets amd barricades. We are safe. We look forward to our grand car- nival of 1852 with the liveliest anticipa We wish we may be permitted to have a finger in the Our platform is the constitution, the Union, the laws, progress, commerce, agriculture, manufactures, religion, science, steamships, and the fine arts, the branch mint, cheap postages, and everything else that is good. We shall have no candidate on the track; for any man that comes up to our platform will do. But we expect a rare time in the approaching cam- paign—something after the style of the jubilee of the children of Israel at the end of fifty-two years, when everybody was welcome to everything, and the whole natien joined in the frolic. Allah bis millah! The plan of the campaign has yet to be deter- mined. Nine months to the re-assembling of Con- gress is a long interval. Within that time, the confused materials around us may lift themselves from the horizon, and reveal the actual prospect now enveloped in the fog. The spring, summer, and fal) electione will doubtless throw considerable light upon the subject ; but with the dispersion of Congress, all definite action in reference to the plans, platforms, and candidates of |552 Ul pro- bably be suspended till sh: jay in Decem- ber next. Then the w mmence—then | the arrangements for and democratic National Conventions ve made; and above all, then the regular ; rms for the campaign must be framed, so as \o have everything cutand dned, and in applepie order, for the action of the conventions. How far free farms, free soil, free trade, Canada, Cuba, cotton, sugar, and tobacco, are to enter into the canvass, we shall know when the good time comes round. At present, we see but little chance of a Union party, and every pros- pect ofa guerilla fight, with two or three regulars and two or three militia candidates in the field. Meantime let us fellow the old round head’s vice—“Put our trust in God, and keep our powder dry.” Gowe Bacx To First Princirizs—Mavor Kinestanp AND HIS DEMONSTRATIONS AGAINST Nuisanexs.—Let our worthy Mayor follow up the good work which he has commenced, and he will be supported by all in the community whose sup- port is worth having. {fhe will relieve the streets of the remaining flags and banners, and teach some of our friends down town that the sidewalks were designed for the public convenience, and not forthe | che accommodation of individual jobbers ormerchants, he will confer a great benefit on the community at y2rge, although he may offend the tailors and man- tua makers. Many a new coat and lady’s dress have been eacrificed by coming in contact with boxes and bales in the lower part of the city. Mr. Kingsland has commenced well, and we hope he will not tire. There are abundance of laws in existence to make New York as well governed as aay city in the world, if they were enforced. Through a variety of causes they have beena dead letter. Revive them, Mr. Kingsland, and you need not fear the result. The independent press will sustain you, and in that you will have a support stronger and more substantial than any of the mere political papers can give you.

She looked | charmingly, and being divested of the weight of robes _ necessary 0 give character to a tragic rdle, her light | figure and animated countenance were admiranly suited te the representation of Rosina, which was « most charming perecnation in every respect. We | need rcarcely say that the public were surprised at the remarkable performance. as well as delighted with the vocalisation, Parodi introduced the cavatina from * Tancredi’’ in the second act, and it was ve- bemently encored. and she, with the rest of the com. pany,was called out at the end of each act. Beneventa- no made one of the mostadmirable F igaroswe have ever seen, and never flagged for a moment in his spirits. Banqvirico was exceedingly humorous, and rini, Novelli and Amalia Patti filled thetr res réles in the most acceptable manner, On Thur as lar Amalia will take her benefit, and on that occasion there will be a very great entertainment. to which we direct attention for its novelty, as well asin the hope that the amiable yeung vosalist will see a houseful of friends. } and ex- stablish- sty’s Minsrnets.—The great yariet ence of th rt pirlt. ‘The singing is always rendered with a rmony. ‘The instrumental performances are ex: | cellent.
