Tenth avenue. A joint committee from each Board was appointed to wait on the Hon. Howell Oobb, Goveruor of Georgia, now in the city, and te tender him the use of the Governor's room in the City Hall, for the purpose of meeting the citizens of New York. Owing to the perfect avalanche of news and ad- vertisements, we are compelled to omit numerous local reports, among which are the following :— Lectures of Professor Loomis on China, and Rev. Dr. Baird on Italy; proceedings of the Common Council; Board of Supervisors; Court of Sessions; numerous items of city and police news; theatrical notices, Ro. \ The Now British Ministry. The chief item of European intelligence brought by the Aretie, is the programme of the new British minivtry—the men and the parte assigned to them for performance, in the new political drama, in which the Earl of Derby has the principal réle. The regime which has succeeded the whig administra- tion, headed by Lord John Russell, is characterized by the opposite extreme of political opinion, being a protectionist and a high tory government, whose jeading members were aa much opposed to the mo- derate conservatiem of the late Sir Robert Peel and his party as to Lord John Russell and his friends, who are akind of conservative whigs, and approached very nearly to the son of * the Spinning Jenny,” in principles and policy, while in real practical liberal measures, the deceased Baronet always had the advantage over his successor, for he was gene- rally strong enough to carry what he attempted, having not only the support of bis own friends, but. of a large section of the whigs, who could not consis- tently oppose their own principles. In the early part of bis career, Sir Robert Peel was as high a tory as Lord Stanley himself; but he gradually changed with the times, giving Cutholie emancipation in 1829, and establishing free trade at a later period, in opposition to that section of his own party repre sented by Lord Stanley, now Earl of Derby. The present change is not indicative of any chang of opinion in the country, either as regards liberal principles or the doctrines of free trade. It merely NEW YORK HERALD.

The New The arrival of the steamship Arctic, early yoster- @ay morning, placed us in possession of four days’ Vater news from all parts of the Old World, full particulars of which will be found in our columns. ‘The principal feature of this intelligence is the for- mation of the new British Ministry, with regard to which we have commented elsewhere. In the United States Senate yesterday, a bill wa reported by Mr. Hunter, of the Finance Committee, the object of which is to inereate the value of sil- ver, aud thereby retain it in the country. This je a very important measure, and, if passed, will greaily tend to alleviate the inconvenience t which tradesmen are frequently subjected for the want of sufficient small change. Con- siderable debate was had on a resolution of Mr. | imdieates a want of confidence in Lord John Sumner, asking if the price of ocean postage on | Russell, and his inability to carry on oe mail steamers is not unnecessarily high, and whether | government without the aid of Lord Pal- it would not be better to reduce the rates. Com. | merston, who, when compelled to resign as Foreign Secretary, placed himself at the head of the protection party, and led them on to the overthrow | of the Premier in turn. The only man of the whig party who appeared capable of holding the reins in this emergency, was Lord Palmerston himself; but after what so recently occurred, he was clearly in- eligible, either as Premier or as Foreign Secretary ; and be has sufficient power in the whig party to de- feat any whig ministry of which he does not consti- tute a part, or to which he may be unfriendly. There was no alternative, therefore, left to her Ma- jesty but to take to her couneils a conservative mi- nistry; and she was probably advised to this course by Lord John Russell himself. The moderate con- sorvatives having lost their great leader by the death | of Sir Robert Peel, and the talent of the party heing chiefly among the high conservative section, the Earl of Derby was naturally selected as Prenrfer, and | entrusted by the Queen with the formation of a mi- istry. It is stated that there is an understanding Biockton is determined to-do something for the bene- fit of the sailors who served with bim in California during the Mexican war. He gave notice of a bill granting them lind, upon the principle that they are equally ae much entited to compensation as the brave soldiers. The attention of the House of Representatives w: again taken up with the consideration of the Pre dential question yesterday. Mr. Fiteh, an Indiana democrat, reviewed the last message of President Fillmore, and was opposed to all his doctrines— Guancially, politically, socially, und internationally —except non-intervention and the compromise. Mr. Fitch was particularly severe upon the Pres! dent's course relative to the Cuban invasion, and altributed the wholesale slaughter of Colonel Crit- tenden and his followers to the proclamation of out- Jawry, and the withholding of the protection of our Bag to our own citizens.

Grant, which we publish this morning. Brother Jedediah is ‘‘a Morthon Elder, Mayor of Balt Lake City, a preacher, brigadier of, horse, and President of the Quorum of Seventies, and the like.” He therefore ‘ speaks as @ man having authority,” and fights the enemies of the Saints ‘ equare up to the handle.” His letter has for ite object the vindication of the Saints of Utah Territory against the allegations eon- taineg in the late report submitted to Congress by the United States Judges recently returned from Salt Lake City. That report, on its firet publication in the HERaxp, it will be remembered, created a sensation; and, on its subsequent presentation to Congross, certain prelimivary steps were taken with a view to an investigation into the facts concerning the Mormons. ‘The substance of the accusations brought against them by the returned Judges is, that they ure a segitious set of poople—that Brigham Young, in his speeches and his acts, was little better than a traitor—that he had outraged the authority and the officers of the government, and had defamed the memory of General Taylor, by declaring that ho wes in hell—that this sameeGovernor Young was the supreme despot of Mormondom—that he imitated the Grand Turk in his family affairs, having from twenty to thirty wives, and a large number of children—that the other dignitaries of the church had also a plurality of wives, according to their offi- cia) standing—and that polygamy, on a very liberal scale, was the distinguishing institation of the Mor- mon community. His Honor the Mayor of Salt Lake City proeceds to answer his judges by ciscreting them as witnessos. Judge Brandebury, it appears, gave great offence to the Saints, from neglecting the important duty of wearing a clean shirt. This offence is reprosented as inexcusable, from the abundance of soap and wa- ter at the Salt Lake. Aftor being received in great state, at the city bath-house, on his arrival, where he was honored with a grand ball, which was opened with prayer, it was expected that he would look to hig shirts, and not forget the washerwoman. Judge Snow and lady, and Mr. and Mrs. Harris, were re- ceived in the same way, with a grand ball at the bath-house, opening with prayer and closing with a benediction—Governor Young presiding on each ov- casion, Mrs. Harris danced with the Governor, and “with a will, too,” as it appears, and seemed to be delighted with the Mormons. Affairs looked well for harmony between the officers and the people; for, notwithstanding ‘that shirt whieh the Judge had on at the 24th of July celebration,” there was no trouble till the arrival of P. E. Brocebus, one of his associates, The appearance of thie gentleman in Zion seoms to have been the immediate cause of a rupture. After giving a character to Judge Brocehus unzub- stantiated by proofs, Elder Grant proceeds to a re- port of the September celebration at “the Bowery” of Salt Lake City, where the grand flareuptook place between the Judge and the Governor. The Judge was put down in attempting to lecture the Mormon ladies upon morality—unquestionably a very bold undertaking. The reply of Governor Young, aceord- ing to the Elder's report, must have been a clinchor. But one important fact is admitted. Elder Grant testifies, substantially, that Governor Young de- Gared that while General Jackson was among the angels in heaven, the good old General Taylor was roasting in the other place. Awful, truly terrible, when it is further declared that “ Brigham Young spoke this out of his knowledge by the priesthood.” ‘This is a direct confirmation by Elder Grant of the doctrine of spiritual manifestations. What saye Grecley to that ? A few days after this affair, the offended United States Judges were missing in the New Jerusalem, having taken up their line of march for Washington. We do not discover that their report is answered by Elder Grant. A different view of the circumstances is given, anda different coloring to the same facts, which show that Judge Brocchus acted very impru- dently in his address. It also appears that he and his official associates did not sufficiently respect those habits of industry, while among the Mormons, for which they are so remarkable. But the pith of the charges against Young and his community is not answered. Their love and devotion to the Union is declared to be faithful and unchanged. The only difficulty is, that the organization of their society iets with the laws and institutions of the United States. Polygamy is admitied to exist; for Elder Grant will hardly deny that Brigham Young has at least seven wives. Th nts are, no doubt, very much attached to their very peculiar institutions. They are the practical fulfilment, on a sinall ecale, of the ‘good time coming,” when socialism shall be universally established. We apprehend that the government will yet have some trouble with these Latter Day Saints and angels, and that there is some truth in the reports that they have broken out into open mutiny. The Saints deserve great credit for that persevering industry which has built up a pros- perous community in a desert ; but they must make up their minds to submission to the federal authori- ties, and come down to the established arrangement ofone wife at a time, or abide by the consequences of their higher law. Meantime, would it not be well for our city fathers to give a corporation dinner to the Mayor of Salt Lake City ? He does not ask for inter- vention, or material or financial aid; but why not give him a dinner or a ball, and get hie opinion on the Maine Liquor law ?

Mr. Twostrson, (dem.) of Va., asked leave to offer a re- solution, appropriating the day exclusively to the call of States, beginning with Maine, for resolutions and bills, of which previous notice has been givon, and on which no debate should be allowed. ‘The House refused to suspend the rules, and thus two hours were consumed. ‘The House then went into Committee of the Whole on the state of the Union, and took up “THE HOMESTEAD BILL. Mr, Fires, (dem.) of Ia.. inrising to address the House, said that, as to the bill under ideration, he had but little to say. If it should be found, on examination, to be sufficientlyguarded to prevent frauds, his vote should be found in te support. He rose to discuss the President's annual message, and the incidental matters connected therewith, including men, measures, and things. While in the message there is much deserving of censure, be respected Mr, Fillmore as aman and an officer, but widely differed from him on political subjects. He attributed the President's recommendations to the result of errane- ous opinions. While the President correctly adheres to the non-intervention policy, he adopted the wrong course respecting the Cuban invasion, for, by the proclamation of outlawry, he invited the arrest and execution of the captured, while, if he bud insisted upon the fulfilment of treaty etipulations, they would have had a fair trial, and much suffering would have been. avoided. When was Great Britain known to abandon a British citizen? She shrays insiste on treaty rights. and for this reason her flag is respected. The fault of the administration is, it has withheld the protection of our flag, instead of giving it. He did not justify that inva- sion; far from it; but its result has exci a desire for reveny fo be gratified by another invasion, a justifica~ tion for which will be sought for in the results of the out- lawry proclamation of the President. If another invasion should be made, as it will be, would it be proper that the administration of the government should be continued in the hands of those who now control it, or given to Web- ster, who refused to vote men and money during the last war with Great Britain? orto Corwin, who disgraced him- self and country by inviting the Mexicans to welcome our ountrymen, with bloody hands, to hospitable graves ? or hall the administration be entrusted to others, who en- tertain such opinions and policy? Mr. Fitch then passed to speak of our domestic policy. First, as to the compro- mise, On this subject he thought with the President. But these measures are passed, no right- minded man wishes to reproduce the animosity which accompanied the general agitation of the nestion, and the only regret is that the President's son- Gments in his message, show the equivooal position of his party, to such an extent as to render it necessary for him again to declare the compromise a finality, and to en- dorze it as fur ashe can. ‘The Seward party seemingly acquiesce in the compromice, and during the forthcoming struggle they will ery but, the context over, they will proclaim anew their disunion sentiments. What the fireaters will do remains to be seen. The gentleman from Florida (Mr. Cabell) is prepared for a separate or- ganization, and says that, in a certain contingency, he will take the position of an outeider, and tire his kmall shot at both parties, But the gentleman will find that his Gun well aimed at duck or plover, Will kick, and knock its owner over. If the gentleman wishes to conneet himself with the par- ty which gives the most support to the compromise, he will have little difficulty in mone a choice, for the de- mocrats generally are in favor of that moasure, Some of the whigs support it, while others render a lukewarm sup- port—tho majority oppose it.

He will say nothing without the con- sent of the woolley heads.

Con- sidering Mr. Fillmore’s reported tariff act of °42, this speaks well for the act of 46. It is, therefore, very probable, that he makes the recommendation of a ‘c in accordance with the importunities of his friends, rather than from any desire to see it changed. On all other old issues, his party give way, thereby ackpowledging the democratic policy to be 001 rect. He had heard it eaid that Mr. Fillmore had ox- pred himself to the effect, that the principal difference ‘tween the democratic party and the whig party is, that the latter are always ten yeatw behind the former. Mr, Fillmore bas outstripped his own party, and repented of old notions, Our finances appear to be in a flourishing condition, Whig officials say this. The predictors of eficiencies are classed among the prophets of Baal. But t appears that Mr. Meredith and Mr, Uorwin placed their figures on the wrong side of the record.
