Indeed, conspicuous mem ers of the respective Astor House and Irving He yaos | have been seen, of late, cheek by jowl, just as if fo ruch men as Fillmore and Seward, or Scott and Webster, had ever existed. But how the New York whig party is to be reconciled and amalga- ated, so as to pull ali together in the traces— woolly heads, silver grays, Union men, high-fliers, Dullifiers, higber-law men, anti-renters, Fourierites and abolition: black and white—is a thing we cannot exactly comprehend.

Previous to Mr. Perry's taking the subject in hand, the Commis- sioners of Emigration were deaf to all the calls that | were made upon them to put a stop to the system of pillage and plunder that has for years past been practised on the emigrants, but in vain. They did not move in the matter; but Mr. Perry cleared Albany of the runners, who, driven out of there, took refuge in Troy, to which place they resorted, onthe understanding, that their confederates in New York would forward emigrants by that city instead of Albany. Mr. Perry had no jurisdiction in Troy, and in order to attack the root of the evil, he determined upon exercising his influence with the Mayor of New York and the Commissioners of Emigration, to join him in the good work which he had undertaken. His call was responded to some days ago, and the prospect is, that within a short time this system of villany will be broken up root and braneh, and the emigrant receive the protection which the numerous laws passed for the purpose contemplate, but which has hitherto, for reasons best known to the Commissioners of Emigration, been withheld from him. The resuit of this concerted action between the mayors of Albany and New York, and the Com- missioners of Emigration, has been the issuing of the following circular to persons exercising the business of forwarding emigrant passengers to their places of destination :— CIRCTLAR TO ALL PERSONS EXERCISING THE BUSINESS OF FORWARDING EMIGRANT PASSENGEAS, OR TRANSPORTING THEIR LUGGAGE FROM THE PORT OF NEW YORK The Commissioners of Emigration feel themselves called upou by the nnmerous complaints of violation or evasion of the laws for the protection of emigrants from abroad, arriving in this port, torenew to ail persons en- gaged in the business of forwarding such emigrants, or transporting their luggage, the expression of their de- termination to enforce a rigid compliance with the pro- Visions of there laws; and also to call their attention to the following regulations made under the general autho» rity of those acts. and for the more fully carrying out their design and iutentton. Special notice is hereby given. that what is called the booking of passengers will nut be allowed cm board cf Vessels or steamboats, at or upon any dock or pier, nor in any other place than th arder’s public office for the transaction of such bu: as required by law; and | the Commissioners particularly call the attention of such forwarders to the express prohibition by law, of the prac- tice of issuing blank receipts signed by them, or per- witting their wames to be used by any other persons in the business of booking emigrants aad their luggage. or taking money for their fare or transportation of Lug- ener ~ All passciget* bagssge where the contthey 1 made place on the routa, x The Qommiec\Shers ubink that as a propor guard Sgttast uilsiakes or imporition. all tiekets issued should contain, berides a statement of the time and place of suck issue, the number of persons so paying, the number of pounds of baggege, and the price per huadred pouads for its traneportation; also # plain statement of the mode or " canal, and the names of all the places where and how the mode of conveyance way change, It is further thought proper. that a writtea or priated fall eoatract with all the above particulars sliouid be given to the Pastenger or paseen, besides the way ticket; such Contract to be for the sole use of euch passengers, to ke kept by them The Mayor of New York has assented to the request of the Commissioners of Emigration, to make the graat- ing of forwarders’ liceuses by hun. to be dependent upon the forwarder’s coaforming to « list of prices adopted by Ube Mayor and the Commissioners of Emigration, to be lowed fur the season as the highest charge for ialand fare for passengers aud for the transportation of their luggage, and upon his adopting the form of ticket and contract as above described, aud as hereunto annexed.

The Common Council of Buffalo put the ball in motion, and its impetus was accelerated by Mayor Perry, | who has shown himself an enemy of the injustice we have so often complained of. In another part of this day's paper the public will find the rates of fare decided upon by the Commissioners, from which it will be perceived that emigrants can be forwarded by the Erie Railroad to Buffalo, and tothe West generally, at a rate less, by one half, than the usual charges by the Erie Canal, under the old system. Mone Revo.utions iy Mexico—Britisu Ix- rRiGvES—PropaBLk RETURN oF SANTA ANNA.— We have already adverted to the important charac- ter of our last intelliger.ce from Mexico. In many respects it can hardly fail to attract the attention of, and to wake up, our drowsy government at Washingten to a vigilant study of the deep laid in- trigues of British agents in the city of Mexico. ‘The more that any observing mind willreflect upoo the very significan: import of these late Mexican advices, the more conclusive will be the inevitable eonclusion of speedy and radical changes in the policy and government of Mexico. Before her late disastrous war with the United States, the dependent condition of Mexico upon England was sufficiently evident. The conductas of silver, from the minee of the interior, from an in- definite period, have continued, and still continue, to arrive at the Mexican ports for transhipment of © their bullion to England; and the British steam- | ere, even during the war, were punctuaYy upon the ground for these stated supplies. Right--of course right. Mexico has involved herself ia debt from twenty to twenty-five millions, with ber Eng. lish creditors, and she must pay. Everybody will commend all her well-inteaded efforts to pay. But | the mischief of it is, that without the ability or the means to pay, embarrassed to get along even upoa the beggarly system of living fro ‘aand to mouth— and ye: with every disposition to do tbe best she can —Mr. Doyle begins to be dictatorial. John Bull ; comes blustering in, slaps his hand, broadcast, em- | phatically upon the table, and imperiously an- | nounces, loud enovgh to be heard by all out of doors, that Mexico has to pay her debst—she must pay, or look out for the consequences. The French and Spanish ministers, not wishing to appear indif- ferent to their creditors, follow cuit; and poor Mexi- co, at a most critical juncture for the exisience of the government itself, is driven to the wall. What does all this mean? Thore mus: be some object In it beyond that of securing the payments due to the English creditors. A movement which can only embarrass the government, and foment a revolution, involving the country still deeper in debte and disaster.—such a movement could hardly be designed to “ hurry up the cakes,” aud nothing else. Is it not more likely, or at least @ mors pian- | tible presumption, that the real object of the British agents in Mexico is to precipitate a revolution, and supersede the present comparatively honest and conservative government of Arista, by another, more flexible to their purposes, and more friendly to the echemes, intrigues and influences of England in Mexico, and the adjoining republics, than to the | institutions and expanding influences of the United | States. President Arista, after having lived sone | considerable time in this country, is said to enter- | | carefully examined, and that if the same be fouud to ex- cred the scale now adopted, such circumstances will be deemrd 4 sufficient cause for 4 revocation of the license. Forward: rs are, however, hereby invited to exchange new lists for the old ones now on file with the Commissioners, GULIAN ©, VERPLANOK, President of the Board of Commissioners of Emigration. New York, July 18,1851 Accompanying this circular is the form of a ticket or receip’, which the forwarder isto sign, and e copy of which, with the forwarder’s signatare at- tached, ie to be delivered to each emigrant who pays to be sent into the interior.

At all events, he appears to be a man ofenlarged and liberal views, and rather dis- posed to seeure the goodwill and hearty frieudship of the United States, by a judicious and conserva- tive administration, than to enter into any system of intrigues or alliances with foreign powers. To reduce expenses, to curtail excesses, to develope the resources of the country by a system of internal improvements, seem to be parts of his policy, if there were only common sense, honesty, and enter- prise enough in Mexico to sustain’ é | Appearances, however, a 6 sadly against him. | The suspension or suppression of the Garay | grant of the Tehuantepec rouge, betrays not only a want of sympathy in bY policy, but a stropg repugnance to any commercial advantages — to citizens of the United States. And we doubt | not that British influence is at the bottom of it all. | Nor do we doubt tha: the revolutions in Chiapas, Oajaca,and Tobasco, in favor of the return of Santa Anna to the dictatorship, are aided and | abetted, if not fomented, by British agents. And from the whole bearing of all the testimony, taking the various facts of the ate intelligence as evidence in the case—from the past and from the present face of things—we are quite prepared to hear by | the next arrival from MM@Mco, or within the rea. sonable time of two or three months, that Santa | Anna has returned, and has assumed the dictator- ship. The time is fully ripe for another revolution in Mexico, at all events; it is evidently brewing ; it has actually commenced in several States; aud whether it shall terminate for Santa Auna or against him, we can hardly count upon the con-— tinuance of the present temperate aduinistration. We eeeno chance for Mexico, until she ia par- | celled out among her European creditors, of an We prefer the inde- pendence of the republic of Mexico, if British in- terests will admit of it; if not, we should supporte the occasion had arrived for the enforcement of the Monroe doctrine of foreign non-intervention We shall watch the progress of the game Census Retvass or Newsrarens.—We give, to- day, the census returns of newspapers published in six Southern States, via: Virginia, Delaware, North Carvlina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Flo rida--baving before published those of Massacha- setts and Vermont. The small number of local newspapers circulated in the country towns and vil- lages of the Southern States, as well as those of New England, cannot fail vo strike the attention of those who examine these returns, which are proba bly near correct—as but few publishers, probably, have had motives to underrate their circulation in giving anewers to the marshals on the subject. It isevident that the peeple generally take but little | interest in the publication of their own local news- papers, Which must, therefore, be supported by the county and other advertising. {t is pretty certain that the system of newspaper publishing, in the country as well as the large towns, must, ere long, undergo @ revolution, and the old papers go out of existence, while new and cheap papers must take their places.

The very first enactment that the next Congress should make, ought to be a law directing all per- sons, corporations, Territories, or States, having outstanding claims or demands of any kind what- | soever against the United States, the settlement | and payment of which are not clearly provided for by existing laws, to present the same by memorial, setting forth the same fully, and to make proof | thereof to the appropriate department of the govern- ment—t. ¢. the department having charge of that branch of business to which it relates—within two years from the passage of such act; and declaring that by neglecting so to do, the claimant shall be forever barred from the same. It should also be made the duty of such department to examine and decide such claim as early as practicable, and with- jn six months after presentation, and to make re- port thereof, with all the papers and proofs therein, to Congress, on or before the second Monday of the next sessicn thereafter; or, if Congress be in session when the case ie decided, to make such report forth- + with; and the law should prohibit the payment of any snc claim, yntil special appropriation be made therefor; and the law sili direct the examination of such claim or demand, notwith- standing a foimer decision of the departmental or accounting officers adverse thereto, if reason- able ground, such as new evidence, mistake, or errer, be shown for a revision of such decision. ‘The limitation should also extend to all claims , and demands arising aficr the passage of the law, though perhaps three years may be allowed from the time of the transactions from which they originate, with a saving in favor of minors, insane persons, feme coverts, &c. All claims against the United States which may, by existing laws, be set- tled and paid by the departments, should be pre- sented within one year after they arise or accrue, or the claimant be debarred therefrom. As to the couree that shoald be pursued by Con- gress in reference to the cases so :eported to them, it may be the subject of suggestion hereafter. It is now preferred to wait until the views of our corres- pondent are submitted to the public. We shall, perhaps, make comments pari passu with his letters, pertinent to the matters treated of in each of them. The Fine Arts, ‘The lithographic art in the metropolis has now reach- eda very bigh point of excellence, and the success which has attended the various establishments seems to have stimulated many foreign lithographers to open establish- ments. D’Avignon has given many fine specimens o¢ portraits within the last year, and Sarony & Major have been very successful in their miscellaneous descriptions of work, such #6 the View of Sutter's Mill in California, printed in colors, and many of their dramatic portraits. We have now to mention, also, that the portraits of N. Corradi, whose works are new to us, promise to be very acceptable additions to the triumphs in the lithographic art. Corradi bas recently published two lithographic pertraite—one of Guiseppe Garibaldi, and the other of Guiseppe Mazzini. They are both excellent likenesses, and will be much appreciated by the admirers of these two Italian patriots. In the art of painting we have little of novelty to com- municate. Already has our Paris correspomdent an- nounced the probability of Mr. Healey’s arrival, by the Canada, with the large picture upon which he has long been engaged, representing the great statesman, Mr. Webeter, in the act of addressing the Senate of the United Btates. The painting represents the chief members of the Senate, and many ladies of renown in the diplomatic circles of Washington; and when the canvass is stretched for Ube inrpection of the curiour, will be very attractive for the many admirable features which we have been in- structed to believe it embraces, and for being the best work of the scoumplishe dt painter. Tn copnection with oi paintit we learn. also, that the Baron Arnstein bas arrived in this city with a ver large collection of paintings by the old masters, ie te preparing « gailery for exhibition; and from all that can be learned, the connolseurs have a great treat in ticipation. uropean mms have been “ few aud far between,” and the proposed ex- hibition will be highly satisfuetory, we doubt not, not only to students, but tu the public ‘The steamer Asia. sailing to-day, we understand takes cut to the World's Fair the celebrated picture of the Apotheosis of George Werhington, painted by Burns, and which has been recently rei from the Kotands of the Capitol at Washingtcn, where it elicited so much ad- mination, for the purpore of exhibition at the Crystal Palace. Police Intelligence. A MOCK AUCTIONEER CORNERED BY A COUNTRYMAN— FLIGHT OF THE ALARMED COUN(RYMAN, AND CAPTURE BY THE POLICE Yesterday afternoon quite an exciting scene took place in Chatham street, among the mock auctioneers and Peter Funks, respeeting an assault on one of their shops, by an enraged countryman, whereby he cornered two or three of the “Peter's,” together with the auctionser. seized two of their glittering watches, in order to make bimeelf square,and then ran from the shop, with a six barrel Colt’s pistol, loaded, in one hand, and « lead headed cane im the other.

The auctioneer stated that the countryman purchased the watch, and after ihe pur- chase became dissatisfied, and demanded his money back again; but before they had time to return the moaey, he grabbed the two watches, exbibited the loaded plctol, called out bloody murder, and from the store; the alarm of “Stop thief?’ was ri , and # collection of reops, numbering some three or four hundred, fol- lowed after, until he was captured by the police.
