News by Telegraph. Yesterday being the Sabbath, our telegraphic information is, of course, vory brief. What little we have, however, will be found quite interesting. A despatch from Washiagton, in speaking of the | reeent rumors of a fraud upon the Treasury, states that they arose from the fact of the arrest of an American, who was found to have been illegally intriguing with the Mexican government, coucern- ing tho transactions between that country and this. Now, it is hardly possible that so many reports of | different and extensive frauds should have arisen | from this single ciroumstance. If our information is correct, there is something of a startling nature yet behind the curtain, which will be developed in | The jinale will be apt to astonish all | due timo. povices in political and financial trickery. Wait and seo. We publish to-day, a political letter from the Hon. James Bushanan, and another from the Hon. Thos. H. Benton. ‘The first isarather dull com- mentary on democratic abstractions, which may mean anything or nothing, as occasion may require. | In attempting, however, to be wise in regard to the | politics and true policy of the French Republio, Mr. | Buchanan slips into the common error of judging | of the character of the French people by the etandard of our own. The division of France into separate States, according toour federativo system, | is simply impracticable. The ignorance of the mass of the French people, their old ideas, and their Jove of Paris,‘of which we have in the United | States no proper conception, form an impassable | obstacle to the establishment of any such system ef government as oursin France. Paris is France, and the French people would not have it otherwise. ‘The first thing to understand in discussing the | proper government for the French, is the French eharacter. Mr. Buchanan does not understand it. He had better given us his opinion on the tariff question, rivers and harb: and other subjects of practical importance. Col. Benton’s letter is in the Bombastes Furioso vein, and cuts and slashes | right and left, among the anti-Benton party of | Missouri, in regular broadaxo style. It isevident, | | Sppointing the 17th of June for the Philadelphia | creed, the most rigid neutrality, or.non-intervention, | and the compromises, at least till after the Presi- ; dential election. | ment ; and that it was not undertaken or done | odium of avything like a conspiracy to trip up The Presideney—Revivat of the Old Par. ties and Old Party Piatforms, Ithas now become manifest that the two great Political parties of the country are in process of re-organization, upon their old party platforms. We published, yesterday, tho platform promal- gated by the whigs of the Legislature of Maino, Convention, nominating General Scott, and James C. Jones of Tennessee, as their ticket for the ap- proaching campaign, and proclaiming as their in all questions of a sectional character, caloulated to inflame old sores and revive old troubles in the ranks, It is the proclamation of an armistico—a suspension of all hostilities, all agitation, all dis- cursion, in the whig party, North and South, on all the issues growing out of the negro question Now, we have no doubt that this movement in the Legislature of Maing is an authoritative move- without the advise and consent of certain leading whigs at Washingtos. Wo approhond that the extreme northeast corner of the Union was select- ed as the point best caloulated to elude suspicion, and to give the movement the appearance of a spontaneous production of the soil. It would not be respectful to Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Webdster—tho conductors of a whig administration, and both of them candidates for the support of the whig party— | it would not be respectful to them to commence an | Organization in behalf of Geuoral Seoit, under | their very noecs. A very natural sentiment of delicacy would suggest the propriety and the expediency of opening tae sohomo at fome remote point, in order to escape the the cabinet. Hence, we doubt not, the scheme, the time, the place, the ticket, and the piaiform of the whig party, were all turned over tv be pro- roulgated from the whigs of the Legislature of Maine. We also apprebend that this wronwrcia mento just as distinctly foreshadows the time ant the place of the Whig National Convention, as do the late proceedings of the National Exesutive Democratic Committee at Washington designate the day and the p/ace for the grand counoil of the democrats. We undertake, then, to say that while the firat day of Juno is the positive appoint- ment for the meeting of the Democratic National Convention in Baltimore, it may be regarded as equally certain that on the !7:h day of Juno the whigs will assemble in their national ‘slaughter. house” convention at Philudelp ia. ‘The time and place of tho tivo conventions, how- ever, are ef small importance, compared with tho principles which they may declare as constituting their respective platforms for the sanvass. But even in regard to principles, we have sufficient ; light on both sides for pretty safe conclusions. The | great, fundamental, all-important, and all-absorb- ing principles, on both sides, will be the seven great principles of John Randolph—the five loaves and the two small fishes—expanded into fifty millions of dollars a year, for four years, with all the extras of jobbing, stock jodbing, and fat contracts. And the controlllag power, on both, sides, will be the prodigously ‘‘ cohe- sive power of the public plunder.” Such will be | the elementary principles and the controlling power in the canvass. The whiggs will fight with despora. tion to retain their hold upon the Treasury, and the terrible democracy will be as harmonious as hungry wolves in the chase, te recover the spoils. Upon these great principles of attraction and oohe- sion, both parties are coming together, dropping all | dissengions, all animositics, all local equabbles, all sectional igsues, all distracting abstractions—every | thing—for the sake of harmony, and secure the vast and delicious plunder of fifty millions a year, io solid silver or Californ ia gold. The whig platform of Maine confirms us in these conclusions. It distinctly sets aside all disturbing questions of national policy, and recommends an | | however, that he imagines the safety of the Union and of the civilized world depends upon purging | the democratic party of Missouri of the horrible | heretics that have crept into the ranks. | Kossuth arrived at Cleveland, Ohio, on Saturday | evening, after having made short speeches from | ‘the pt: e ears to the enthusiastic crowds — of people who awar § arrival at every stopping place cn the route from burg. He collected eleven bundred dollars on the way, which will be | thankfully received by his numerous destitute fellow countrymen—provided he appropriates it for their immediate relicf. On reaching Cleveland, | the Magyar wae welsomed by an immense con. eourse of people, and was conducted by a grand torehlight procession to his hotel, where he shortly after made hie appearance on the baloony, and informed them that he was too ill to address them at that time, but would do so at the festival which | ie to come off this afternoon Having recently published the extraordinary statement of Count Batihyanyi with regard to tae strugglo for Hungarian indepen and the part Kossuth enacted therein, we are tbis morniog enabled to furnish the 4 of Magyar, as written by his private cocretary, Count Palszky.

Tue Art Union Drawtna.— We receive constant inquiries relative to the drawing of the Art Union Association, for the distribution of the paintings, and the clering up of the last year’s business. Wo have no information on the subject, neither dooa the cerporation itself furnish any positive or definite intelligence which can throw any light on tho probable day of drawing. ‘The postponement of the proper day is undoubs” edly a violation of their pledges to the public, and a violation of their charter as given by the Legisla- ture, and may be considered, in some sense, as a circumstance similar in its character to that of the suepension of epecie payments by bauking incorpo- | rations. During the last year, under the promises of the Art Union Association, the public all over the country, purchased tickets (o the amouat of over twolve thousand, contribulisg to the funds of the institution over sixty thousand doilars. It becomes, therefore, a very natural question, how, after ro- ceiving such an immense sum, it was rendered necessary to postpone, indefinitely, the drawing, as the several bulletins issued from tho institution have done, aod to give no intimation as to the probable day on which the distribution may take place. On the face of it, there must have been some strange mismanagement in the internal affairs of the association, to produco—afier receiving over sixty thousand dollars—such a catastrophe as the vio'ation of their solemn pledges, made during the whole of the last year. No institution can ex- pect to sustain its character or retain its privileges, that trifles with the public mind in the manner in which this institution bas done during tho last year. Ever since its commencemont, we have uided, assisted, puffed, and praised the manago- ment and managers; and we bolisve the whole precs ef New York has performed tho like gratui- tous service. We continued this system of pufling and praise ep to the very day in which they first issued their bulletin announcing the postponement of the distribution, and the consequent violation of their promises. !rom that moment, wo took the side of the publis against the mismanage- ment of the institution; and for our auda- city in this matter we have been—under the advice and eanction of the present District At- torney—gravoly indicted for libel by the Grand Jury of this city. 1t is well known that there are nearly a thousand illegal grog-shops tolerated in -New York—severa) thousand houses of improper charae- ter, and gambling houses innumerable. Yet the Grand Jury of this city, with allthe advice, and intelligence, and public virtue which is possessod by our District Attorney, never have lifted s finger in the work of bringing these violators of the laws of the State, and of the principles of morality, to punishment. They have, however, done their duty in theirown way. They have indicted a single newspaper which dared call in question tho conduot of an impudent association that violated their pledges te the public after receiving sixty thousand dollars. Wo call, therefore, on the present patriotioand virtuous District Attorney to bring up his indict- ment at once. We ask him or any other public officer to go before any jury in this city, with sach an accusation against an independent journal, for calling in question the conduct of an association which had so unwarrantably violated the terms of itecharter. Inthe meantime, we can assure all inquirers that we have no means of knowing tho day of distribution, or whether any such day may evor arrive for the drawing of the lottery unde the patronage of the Art Union. Tnk Two Orrras—Tug CoMMENCEMENT oF THE Reat Conrest.—The old Opera audience, by which Maretzek was ‘cribbed, cabined, con- | fined,” having been cast out, the two Italian troupes now commence the contest in earnest, and upon equal terms. This evening, at Astor Placa, | willbe performod Donizetti’s splendid tragedy of “Maria Di Rohan,” considered by many as the best and most charming of all the operas of that beautiful composer ; while at Niblo’s the equally splendid opera of ‘* Don Giovanni,” the best of tho | operatic works of the great Mozart, will be repre- sented by a strong force.

We understand that the sums paid by the Legislature during the last few years, for the public printing of documents, statistical tables, and various other things, amount, in the whole, to a sum vary- ing from $120,000 to $150,000 per annum. Adscord- ing to certain tables and rates, epocimens of which we have received, and the amounts paid for priating the Report of the Superintendent of Common Schools, there is every reason to believe that the rates paid to the Albany newspapers range from fifty to one hundred per cent above what the same work eould be furnished for, with equal elegance, by outside printers. We ehall give the items on which these calcula- tions are based, a8 soon as we receive them com- plete from Albany; but in the meantime, it may bo assumed that out of the $150,000 annually paid by the Legislature to several journals there for printing, about fifty or sixty thousand dollars are entirely thrown awey, without any adequate returns. ‘Tho journals which partitipate in these rich printing bills are principally the Albany drgus and the Evening Journal—two violent opponents, appa- rentiy, before the people, but two pious, quiet, and dctermiued friends, and a species of silont partners in regard to the vast printing jobs given bythe Logislature. Tho Albany Atlas receives some few drippings from the legislative table, in order to keep its mouth shut; but, judging from the noise itis eternally mokiog, every now and then, on all subjects at Albany, we should be incliaed to believe that the two other journals, with their frionds, are by u6 means go generous and liboral as they ought tobe. Itis@ singular fact that inthe doings at Albany in the letting of tho oanal contracts, the fame policy seemed to be pursued by the two old journals there, in respect to thoge contracts, as they follow in respect te the printing jobs which they enjoy. ‘The canal contracts have already created a tor- rible outburst of patriotism among the barnburners, who havo not participated in any of the profits, Georgo Law, of ths city, and others, who have been successful in bids, are rated and abused as the veriest highwaymen. We have now complaints of a similar sort, on a smaller socalo, in regard to the printing joba of Albany, and the connection of these jobs with the journals of the different political par- ties. We rather think, however, that allthis virtue and patriotism is thrown away—that the great noise made either about the canal letting or print- ing jobs will never produce any amendment, either at Albany or any other State capital, or at Wash- ington, where the jobs are more magnificont, and the profits proportionately heavier. The Albany journals, without these jobs, would be poor, miser- ablo, ricketty concerns. They have no hundreds and thousands of honest Irish chambermaids to sup. port and patronize them, as wo have in the large cities. They must be content with the little plun- derings given and dealt out to them by the small politicians of Albany; in return for which thoy must puff and praise and report those who give them those drippings, and put down those who at- tempt to ‘‘ tell the truth, and shame the devil.” We see no use, therefore, in endeavoring to re- form the condition of affairs at Albany. They have been living on jobs and corruption, on all sides, for many years past, and, we fear, will continue to live on the same offals for many years to come. The public can expect purity, independence, honesty, intelligence, and high statesmanship only from the great leading journals of such a metropo- lis as New York. The miserable newspapers which live in the kitchen corruption ef Washiogton, Al- bany, or other such places, are only ephemeral in their existence and effemate in their policy, and indicate nothing of the nerve, force, intelligenoo, and power of the American people. Mrs. Forrest’s DesvT—A Rior TureaTENED. —This lady makes hor début to-night, at a small theatre somewhere in Broadway. ‘The coming event has created a great deal of conversation, and discussion, and bad feeling, in many circles of go- ciety. Indeed, from what we have heard, we would advise the Mayor and “ Chief of Police” to be on hand, with a sufficient force to put dowa a riot at the theatre, which is apprehended in various quarters, from the eppearance of Mrs. Forrest oa the stage s0 soon after the tate oxciting trial.

We have only seen a telo- graphic despatch as yet, giving a sketoh of this letter; but from what wo have seon of it, Bishop O'Conner takes a rational, sensible view of the case, and his mode of handling the. subject contrasts favorably with the imprudeat onslaught of A rch- bishop Hughes. He appears to have put Kossuth ins corner, and to account very satisfactorily for the fast of Kossuth not having the sympathies of the Irish people on thiscontinent, who are for the most part Catholicos, and by far the most sensible and sagacious of the foreign rages in America.

In every district, he will benceforwerd find hostility to his plans. His own course, and the conduct of his swide in relation to themecives and Madame Tochman—his ridiculous assumption of semi-roya! state—the parado of sonti- nels at his door—and particularly his attacks on the Navy, and the disclosure of his attempt to impair the discipline of the Navy, when on board the Mis- siseippi, will all be turned against him. This last phase will be more fully developed whon the letters of Captain Long are given to the public; and then Koseuth will appear in the light of a miserablo de- magogue.

Willis against Edwin Forrest brought on, the plaintiff being somewhat more hopefal of success, since the termi- nation of the Forrest divorce case, in which he was charged as a guilty party, and he may now have the courage to go through with the suit which he has already once commenced, and once withdrawn, when it was fairly before the jury. In the United States Courts too, we may expect some- thing cf an exciting scene, The trial of Mr. O'Sullivan and others, charged with setting on foot an invasion of the island of Cuba, @ friendly power, is on the calendar for Wednesday next. ‘The February term of the General Sessions commences thisday, and it is generally understoed that the new Recorder, Mr. Tillou, will preside.

The District Attorney will, no doubt, submit the cases of Bates, arrested for the Battery murder, und Margaretta Lohrens, self-accused of the murder of Grunzig’s wife, for the action of the Grand Jury. Iftrue bills be found, they will be trans- mitted for trial to the Court of Oyer and Terminer.
