Among the numerous items of interest furnished hy our special Washington correspondeut this morn- ing, we find that Gen. Scott actually wrote a letter | Inst winter,which not only favors the Compromise, but meets with equal approbation from Southern whigs n= well as Northern free soilers. How tho General has contrived to season this ‘hasty plate ef soup” so as to tickle the palates of these politi- al antipodeans, isa mystery which will soon be solved by the publication of his letter. At all events, it is doubtful whether this epistle can now Be of any great service to him. It has been de- tained from the table too long, and become cold; while Mr. Fillmore has beon satisfying the Kentuck- jans, Louisianians, &c., with a substantial compro- mise meal, cooked in a plain way, and easy of di- gestion. The difficulty between the United Siates Collector at Astoria and the Hudson’s Bay Company, will probably be amicably arranged by the British Min- ister at Washington. The agents of the company, mnintentionally perhaps, mistook the meaning of the @regon treaty, and carried goods for third parties across our territory, free of duty. They will be set ight by Mr. Crampton. More petitions were presented in the United States Senate, yesterday, from Ohio and Michigan, im favor of granting additional aid to the Collins steamers. The people of the various States, if we are to judge of their feelings by the petitions they are transmitting to Congress, thoroughly under- stand the importance of sustaining this line as @ great national enterprise, and are unwil- jing that it should be allowed to fall through for want of sufficient support. From the action of the Senate committecs with regard to the muimcrous other proposed lines of steamers, to run to Ireland, Africa, &e., it is inferred that Senators intend only to favor the granting of aid to those lines already established. After disposing of eonsiderable unimportant preliminary business, the Senate took up Mr. Clarke’s non-intervention resolutions, when Mr. Sonlé, of Louisiana, took the floor. In anticipation of this event, a large number of ladies were utiracted to the Capitol—more than eonld gain admission—all anxious to hear the speech of this distinguished State Rights’ democrat. Mr. Soulé opposed the doctrine of non-intervention, and avowed that even Washington and Jefferson Jooked wpon it as a transient measure, called for hy the necessity of the times in which they lived. Upon the whole, he made by far the most convine- ing speech that we have yet seen in support of General Cass’e doctrine of intervention. There was another long debate in the House of Representatives, yesterday, on the Deficiency Appro- printion bill. Some of the democrats were particu- Jarly opposed to the enormous expenses of the Quar- ter-master’e department. They disliked the literal throwing away of money in New Mexico, where four, «ix, and ten prices are allowed to have been paid for forage, fuel, rent, & Our territorial interests certainly require looking after more sharply. Both our civil and military arrange- ments must be sadly out of joint, else we should not hear so many complaints of neglect, misinanagement, corruption, and utter disregard of national and territorial affairs. Mr. Houston, (dem.) of Alabama, as chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, urgently recommended the pas- sage of the bill before. the House; but at the samo time acknowledged that there was evidently a lack ef economy on the part of many of the officers of government. Inthe course of the morning, it was announced that the flare-up between Mesers. Dun- ham and Fitch, democrats, of Indiana, had been amicably settled; so there will be no immediate rise im the price of gunpowder. It is understood that the Committee on Rivers and Harbors will shortly report a $1,200,000, for works of a purely national character. No favor will be shown to the proposition for the ests Navy Officers and Civilians—the affairs to which it was suggested this Board should give its attention, will probably be placed under the control of a Bu- reau in the Treasury Department. From Albany, we learn that the moralising in- fluence of the Sabbath had the effect of somewhat cooling and modifying the hareh feeling of Senators townids one another. The discussion of the journal of the boisterous proceedings in Tnesday’s executive session, was avoided yesterd: A committee was appointed to investigate the extraordinary conduc of Mesere. Piatt, Upham and P Walsh, the Assembly, expressed himself very strongly against the report of the Canal Letting inves- tigating committee. He spoke of the avaricious and grasping tinctiou—and said there was no denying that the most unprecedented fraud and corruption had been | practised. he bill imposing fines and penalties on railroad companies, for employing persons who use | ntoxieating drinks, was considered at length.

The despotiem that now reigns securely all over Europe ie destined to have a most extraordinary effect upon emigration from the eld ooantry to the new. It will stimulate it into a degree of activity unprecedented in the history of this country, or of any nation of the world, while its influence upon the destinies of the United States is beyond the cal- culation of the human mind. In all ages of the world, extensive emigrations have been produced by political and religious causes. The persecution of the Israelites drove them out of Egypt, to settle in Palestine, after forty years’ wan- g in the wilderness; and the migrations of the ancient Greeks were caused by war, and rapine, and extermination; and those of the Huns, and Goths, and Vandals, who overran western Europe, and ruined the gigantic Roman empire, sprang from the same causes. Great Britain would never have been the mighty power that she is, bunt for the aneient migrations into the island, and the fusion of the most enterprising and the most vigorons raees of the earth. The persecutions of the ‘ Pilgrim Fathers” brought that hardy, sturdy race from Old England to New England, where, by a singular retribution of Providence, they afterwards defeated the armies of the mother country, and in co-opera- tion with other emigrants driven from their native land by oppression, wrought out the indepen- dence of the colonies, and laid the foundation of such a republic and euch a nation as the world has never ecen. Eyen recently in this country, persecu- tion for opinion has had its effect in preducing a mi- gration, whose extraordinary character is only equalled by the exodus from Egypt—the march of the Mormons over the desert, to the great valley ofthe Salt Lake, where they have grown into a mighty people. Emigration has been produced from time to time, like the swarming of beos, by the pressure for room and food, leading to a flitting and the formation of new hives. But the grand cause—that which has al- ways produced the greatest amount of emigration, and particularly emigration en masse—is political oppression, and most of all, after wars and the failure of revolutionary movements. Since the failure of the Irish revolution in 1848, the emigration of the peopte to this country is enor- mous, beyond all example. During the last two or three years, the emigration ofthe German popula- tien, from the same cause, has increased to a wonder- ful extent; and as despotism is growing stronger every day in Germany, and the cause will continue in operation, the effect will also continue. With the exception of the inhabitants of Great Britain and Treland, the Germans possess the groatest facilities, in point of language, in settling here, for there are vast numbers of Germans before them who speak their native tongue, and constitute the link that unites them tothe social and political chain. Tho Italians and French, and such Hungarians as do not speak German, labor under great disadvantages in that respect—the French not so much as the others, but still to euch an extent as hitherto to prevent large emigration; but recent events will overcome all these obstacles, and despair of ever sceing liberty and prosperity at home, will induce vast num- bers to come out to this great field for hu- man enterprise, where there is room enough for all, and every man can enjoy not only physical plenty, and even comforts and luxuries, 2s the reward of his labor and exertions, but complete eivil and re- ligious freedom, such as was never possessed by a nation before. There is not a ray of hope for repub- licanism or constitutional government on the conti- nent of Europe. Louis Napoleon is firm in his seat, and will form such a league with the other despots around him that the absolute government of each one will be sustained by all the others, in the event of a revolutionary struggle to over- throw it. The tide of emigration will, there- fore, continue to swell, and the greater the num- ber of emigrants the more firmly will despotism be established in Europe; for it will be thus re- lieved ofa troublesome class of restless spirits, and be permitted to enjoy undisturbed possession of its power by the men of law and order who remain be- | hind; and this result, on the other hand, will keep up the emigration of those who love freedom better than home, so that, inthe eourse of the next ten years, the emigrants to this country will be counted by millions, and the effect in developing its gigantic resources, and in swelling the population, will be tremendous. In the nations of antiquity, migrations were generally destructive to the people among whom tho migratery hordes came—for they were warlike, and conquered or drove out the natives. In fuct, they were large armies, accompanied by their wives and children ; and being driven out by stronger nations, they made weaker ones their prey in turn. The hordes which come from Europe to the United States are men of peace, coalesce with the population, and adopt their institutions ; and, strange as it may | appear, it is nevertheless a fact, that deepotismin En- rope is for the interest of this couniry. If Europeans enjoyed liberty and prosperity at home, they would not abandon their natal soil, where lie the bones of their ancestors, and brave the perils.of the ocean to | seek an asylum in a strange land. But not enjoy- ing there blessings, they come in quest of them to the New Worki; and even the seditious, the rebel- lious, and revolutienary become useful citizens— friends of law and order—in the United States, Some of these spirits, it ie true, entertain extreme opi- nions, that would peril the peace and integrity of this republic if they prevailed to any great extent; | but they are counteraeted by other influences, and | their growth is choked; so that what was so formi- | dable in Europe is powerless here. The foreignele- ment is so absorbed and moulded by the plastic influence of the American rage and their institutions that it is lost, and is only seen in its effects upon the growth and health of the bory politic; like food, which, taken into the human system, docs not change it to its own nature, but is itself changed and a | milated to the body, which it developes, supports, and sustains, The greater the number of emi- grants, therefore. who visit our shores, the great and the more vast will be our prosperity, and the more rapidly will the wealth and power of the nation be unfolded. This, as we have said, is peculiar to Amer The immediate result of emigration on a large eeale, in other agee and other countrice, was different; thongh it, too, was not without an ulti+ mate beneficial effeet upon the civilization of man- kind.

Tho spring of activity wae wonderful. The progress of mercantile industry and maritime @is- covery was coupled with the cultivation of the nobler arta, and the opening of new intellectual fields in a degree to which history affords no parallel before the commencement of the latest period of Eurdpean ei- vVilization. The arts, refinement, and wealth wore developed much more rapidly in the Asiatic colonies than in the mother country, where they were not equally favored by nature, and were also checked by intestine troubles. Tho cities of the colonists wore distinguiched by a degree of luxury unknown in Greece, and Corinth alone could be compared to them for the cultivation of the arte of peace. It isa curious fact that the colonists brought back to the old land improvements in ship building, navigation, and ether arts, just as the Americans have been en- lightening the mother country at the late exhibition of the World’s Fair. There was one cause that ope- rated to destroy these colonies, and prevented the developement of their greatness. It was the want of a political union to hold them together—that bond of strength which made the American colonies the United States, and the United States the envy and the admiration of the world. These migrations from Eurepe to Asia were seve- ral centuries before the Christian era. ‘The firet of the great irruptions from Asia into Europe, which finally resulted in the overthrow of the Roman em- pire, commenced im the beginning of the second century. After the Huns were vanquished by the published of the effects Of the Liquor law in Maino, and the rebriety tha: has prevailed aimee ite enact- ment. The reason is, that Maine has to a great extent become depopulated since the passage of the Liquor law, and the quiet and the Sabbath stillness may be aceounted for by the vast emigration from that State to California, in eonsequenee of that very | measure. ‘They have made a solitude, and thoy | call it peace.” Not only these persons engaged in | the liquor business in all the towns, but those oiti- xens who were aecustomed to the use ef various tical blue law, have left the State and gone to tho | “land of gold,” or other Statesin the Union, where they can enjoy that personal freedom of action guar- antied to every man by the constitution of the United States, and where no absurd and tyrannical law pre- seribes what a man shall ea’ ov drink, or how ho shall entertain his guest- in his own house.

The Western world was epen to their valor, and they resolved, under the coaduct of their here- ditary chieftains, to discover and subdue some re- mote country, which was inaccessible to the conquering tribe of Tartars and the Chinose. One division settled in the fruitful plains on the eastern side of the Caspian, and their man- ners, and even their features, became gra- dually softened by the climate, the fertility of the soil, and perhaps some faint traces that wore left of the ancient. civilization of Greece. The other divieion gradully advanced towards the northwest, and the hardships of a colder climate, and tho inter- course with savage tribes, exasperated and developed all their native fierceness. They settled on the banks of the Volga, proceeding north in the summer, and touth in the winter. But the same foree which had driven them from their native seats, still continued to impel their march towards the frontiers of Europe; and having conquered the fierce tribes of the Goths, between the Baltic and the Euxine, finally eubdued the Romans, the vaunted lords of the world. The migrations of the Goths and Vandals completed what was begun bythe Huns, and tho Roman empire, already sunk insthe lap of luxury, fell before the overwhelming hordes of barbarians. Tho Huns subsequently settled in Hungary, but the prevailing element in that country at present, is the Magyar population, who are of Turkish origin. These migrations were invading armies. The hosts which throng to the United States from Europe, come in peace—they are active and intelli- gent, and many of them bring money and property with them. All of them increase the value of property in their adopted home, and contribute to the greatnessof the country. They have increased this city, within a few years, to an extent unappre- ciated in ancient or modern history. They people ‘ur savannihs and prairies, clear our forests, culti- vate the teeming soil, build our railroads and ¢ aud intreduce the mechanical arts in which Euro- peans excel, and in a few years Europe is repaid by improvements on what she gave. Emigration not only increases the population but improves the race on this continent, for it is always the most vigorous, healthy, and energetic who emigrate; and this, with the crossing of breeds, is one great cause of the go-a-head character of the American people. With a homogeneous race so rapidly inereasing— the “highest style of man,” fused out of many ele- ments into one, like the celebrated Corinthian brass —with a homogeneous language and homogeneous institutions so free, and with a virgin soil eo fertile and so vast, what is this republic to become in a few short years? Neither eye hath seca, nor ear hoard, nor has it entered into the heart of man to conceive the mighty destiny that awaits the United States before the present generation shall have passed away. Tre Crystar PaLace is Reservork Squane.— We give, elsewhere, in our columns, a sort of bul- letin or programme, indicative of the first move- ments in preparation for the Crystal Palace, which has been authorized Ly the Corporation and char- tered by the Legislature, ia favor of certain parties and persons in thie cit, It will be perceived, from this statement, that the | idea originated among some of the exhibitors of the Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, who wanted a market, probably, for most of their goods, merehan- dize, and worke of art in this country.

Blue laws must always eventually fail, because they assume a degree of human perfoction that doos not exist in the world, and they are not based on human nature. Experience has proved that they cannot be practically carried out. The failure of re- publicanism, established by Cromwell, in England, was entirely caused by the repulsive, straight laced, stiff necked laws introduced by the Puritans, against which human nature revolted; and a reaction was the reeult, which led to the restoration of monarchy, and those pastimes, recreations, amusements, dress, exting, and drinking that had prevailed in ‘* morrie old England” from time immemorial. ‘The faratics assume that men and women can be made angels by an aet of the Legislature; but the truth comes out by and bye that thoy are still human, and have the same passions, inclinations and propeneilies that thoy ever had, and that their fathers and mothers had before them, from the days of yore. Thus fanaticism runs in eyeles, and eur progress men are compelled at last, after playing many fantastic tricks, to come back to the very point from which they started. ‘tne Japan ExpEpition.—One of our Washington correspondents, in a late despatch, intimates that the Japan expedition is not intended for the avowed occupation of the Japanese islands, but that its ob- jects are more of the scientific ordor than the aggros- sive. Tho Emperor of Japan has never had a coast survey taken cf his beautiful eluster of islands; or at least, he has never had the politeness to furnish the nations of“ outside barbarians” with a copy of the maps and charts of any such survey. Conse- quently, the “outside barbarians” having been kept at arespectful distance from his sacred territories, know nothing of the shoals, rocks, reefs, capes, ereeke, inlets and outlets by which they are sar- rounded. And thus it happens, sometimes, that an American whaler, driven off its course, or a mer- chantman running in for the coast of China, is ship- wrecked smong th» islands of his Japanese Majesty. Mr. Fillmore anl Mr. Webster have, therefore, | come to the :escue ; i nd their naval expedition is for the purpose of volunteering, for the benefit of the Emperor and the rest of mankind, a hydrographical survey of the Japanese islands. Mark that--a hy drographical survey. To do this upon the plan of our own coast survey, would require a vast umount of trigonometrical observations on land, anda hun- dred guns, at least, to complete it ; but it is to be purely hydrographical, by water. We prosume that even this examination will be limited toa few im- portant points, beginning with the bay and harbor of Jeddo--the imperial metropolis; and that if it is nocessery firet to bowbard the city, we snppose it will he bombarded. Those unsatisfied | eutrages upon American seamen are also to bo looked after; and if, in 2 quiet way, 2 commercial treaty can be made with the great Emperor, it will he done. Ji is to bo distinetly understood, in any event, that Commodore Perry does not go out upon any filibustering expedition. He may, perhaps, tind it necessary to knock the royal palace of Jeddo about the ears of the Emperor, in order to pave the way for commercial negotiations, and to burn up a few towns around the coast, in the prosecution of the hydrographical survey; bat thatis all. Neither the conversion of the heathen by heavy artillery, nor the ‘‘re-annexation” of Japan to the United States is intended by the enterprise. Nothing is to be done to provoke the intervention of the Dutch. New Horte.s iy tae City.—-New hotels—some of them ona most extensive and magnificent scale— are springing up in various localities in this city, to meet the increasing pressure of strangers from all parts of the Union—in fact, from all parts of the world. In trade and commerce, science, literature and the arts, and also in political opinion, New York is to the United States what Paris is to France, and London to Creat Britain. It is still more. It is the centre of the whole civilized world; and the progress ofevents in both hemispheres | ie daily making this great fact more evident to all men. Itis the entrcpit of the commerce of the eurth— standing, asit does, between the two great highways of natione, the Atlunticand Pacifie—the mighty link | in the chain of communication which girds thehabit- | able globe. On one tide is Europeand Africa. On tho other lies Asia, with ite vart wealth, inviting the com- mercial enterprise and the rivalry of the old country | and the new.
