JANES GORDON BENNETT. PROPRIRTOBAND BDITOR. OFFICE NW. CORNER OF FULTON AND NASSAU &TS. se ccee eres eres M@s 20, New York, Wednesday, Jan. 21, 185%. Votame XVIT.......... This Morning’s Summary. Although the recent snow storm and the cold weather bave temporarily checked nearly all com- munication by the mails, we aro fortunately enabled, through the medium of the telegraphs, to keep our readers advised of whatever is transpiring of im- portance throughout the country. By a@ tele- graphic despatch we arc informed that a steamer, supposed te be the Arctic, was seen off Newport beach yeeterday. Should this be correct, we may look for the Arctic some time thisevening. She will bring four days’ later advices from all parts of Europe. The principal features in tho United States Senate, yesterday, were the resolutions, separately offered by Messrs. Seward and Case, relative to the foreign policy ef this government—especially with regard to Hungarian affairs. On the day previous, Mr. Clarke, of Rhode Island, had presented rego lutions approving of the non-intervention doctrine as laid down by Washington, and hitherto sup ported by the most eminent statesmen and patriots of this country. ‘These resolutions did not exactly coincide with the views entertained by Senator Seward, and he therofore offered substitutes, to the | cfect that “the United States protest against the interference of Russia in the affairs of Hungary, as wanton and tyrannical, and will not horeafver be indifferent to similar gots of usurpation, injustice, and eppreesion.” The resolution of Gen. Cass is rathor more mild. It expressee sympathy for all people struggling for liberty ; recognizes the right of every country to manage its own internal affairs, and saye that the United States cannot see, without deep concern, the interference of one nation in mat | ters which immediately interest tho inhabitants of anether. All this sounde very patriotic, and looks | remarkebly well on paper; but the majority of the people of this country are not disposed to cast aside e policy of non-intervention, under which we have en 60 prosperous; and ag for moral suasion, will pay no attention to it whatever. No ort of a declaratiea of war would have any etupon her—and that course the in of o tates are deci iodly ony clearly demonstrat tures. The Serate yerter tion making land w groseed, by a vote of amendment of Mr. Waller, was rejected by 35 to8. siderable debate occarred in the House of sentatives, yesterday, relative to the mannor of paying the next inetalmont dae to Mexico—the bill making an appropriation of $3,180,000 for said Objection was made to the course hitherto pursued, in paying the debt through the bands of third parties, who, of It was contended, * ifanything could be saved to either, or both exico and the United States, this government ought todo so. This is a subjest well worthy of investigation ; and it is hoped that Congressmen, who are the people's agents, will adopt such mea sures 2g will eave as much of the public money as possible, instead of sowing it broadsast among ava- ricious speculators. During the debate on the in- stalment question, quite a sp'rited flare-up occurred among the representatives from Ohio, relative to their feelings towards Kossuth. What all this con- troversy had to do with the payment of money to Mexico, we are at a loss to know, but presume that it was thrown in by way ef relieving the monotony. th confined to the mombers from the Buckeye Siate. Both branches of the State Legislature appear to bo wonderfully excited concerning the matter of the canal lettings. The members of tho new Canal Board, by a vote of four to two, have recommended the Legislature to submit to the Court of Appeals the question as to the legality of the contracts made by the late Board. Tae report of the Joint Com- mittee of Investigation should be had before any other action is taken. Said report should be full, impar' and intelligible ; andif, a‘ter it has been tendered, there ig any doubt about the legality of the trangaction, let it be carried before the court in question, or any ciher tribunal, whero there isa proepect of having justice done the people. On the other hend; if the report should make itappear that trickery hag actually been practised, and that the people are likely to be dofrauded of three millions then the contracts should be annulled by g shout any hes The trial of the rioters who forcibly rescued the fugitive clave Jerry, at Syracuse, in October last, to have conmenced before Judge Conklin, in S.

It is precisely like that adopted by Van Buren in some sections of the country. The allusionsto Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Webster, by Mr. Seward’sorgan are intended for bunkum, end nothing else. There was a report, it is true, that some coolness had taken place between General Scett and Wm. H. Seward; but thore is 20 doubt it ‘was a ruso to catch the flate. Asthe question new stands, the iutorest of Sew- ard will, no doubt, be to concentrate all hia cn- ergy and force for the nomination and election of General Scott; and General Scott will, of course, keep dark on all the. agitating questions of tho day, the discursion of which might affect him advantageously or disadvantageously in any part of the country, particularly in the South. It is doubtful, however, how far the whig national or slaughter house convention, can expect to produce an impression at tho South unless they take one side or the other om all such questions. At all events, when tho organs of tho different factions are beginving to discuss candidates aad’ platforms, there must be a great deal of work golag on in the dark at Wavhington end elsewhere | nce the awarding of | | throughout the country. the canal contracts in this State, Seward considers that it belongs to him, and that its vote will be given to just such a candidate as he chooses. We are not certain but that bisealculations are true. Imvorrant News ¥rom Mexico.—We havo re ceived, within a few daye past, important private intelligence from Mexico, which is of considerable consequence, in view of the present relations between the Unitca States and that Republic. It will be recollected that a great deal has been eaid for and against the probability of Mexico agrecing to tho treaty in relation to tho Tehuantepec railroad. By the last accounts from that country, wo learned that the government had sent a considerable body of troops to prevent the Tehuantepec Railroad Company from pursuing thoir reconnoiesance of the route of that great work. By the information we have received, we beliove—and that, too, on good authority—that the Mexican goveramen’ never will confirm that treaty; that they repudiate entirely the charter given to Garay and others; and that there is no probability that any foreiga company will ever receive any such charter at any time. | We have every belief in the correctness of this information. The Mexicans, as well as their go vernment, possess @ great opinion, and ibere is no prohab ever conrent to give aright of way acrocs their tor- ritory to any foreign company. As to the govern mext itself, it is a very picture of imbecility and | weaknees. Its only hope of continued existence ia | the amount of tribute which it receives from the United States government, and which was gua- rantied to it by the treaty ef Guadalupe Hidalgo. As scon as thig indemnity is paid in full, we have | no doubt that government will muster up charges against the United States for vielation of the tecaty | in not protecting the frontier against the Indians In fect, Mexico cannot exist as a government, with- out receiving tribute from somo quarter, which most likely will always be from the United States.
