Our columns are again overflowing with impor- tent and interesiing intelligence of all kinds, and fromm almdst every part of the inbabitable globe, ameng the most entertaining of which is the details ef the European news brought by the steamship Europa, which rosched this port yesterday. The elections in England have resulted in the return to Parliament of a majority of over ninety members, who sre opposed to the present ministry. Tt is un- dersieod that this majority will avail itself of the very first opportunity to compel the ministers to re- fign. The religioua jealousies were dragged into the eleetion canvass in several of the cities and towns of Ireland, and many persons were shot, beaten. &¢. Many persons are reported to have been recently arrested ia Italy, in consequence of the seizure of certain letters written by Kossuth. Otherwise, affairs throughout the Continent were quiescent. The English papers still teem with most extraordinary accounts of the wonderful yield of the Australian gold mines, as will be seen in ancther column.

The most intenee excitement provails in this city, in consequence of the awful and deploravle acciden. that took place on Wednesday afternoon, on the | North River, by the burning of the passenger steam- boet Henry Clay. It is the all absorbing topic of covversation in every circle, and it has spread gene- | ral alerm throughout the community. An inquest has been beld, and an indignation meeting bas pro- | nounced its opinion upon the cause that led to this terrible catastrophe, which has rendcred so many hearths desolate, shrouded so many families in the emblems of mourning and woe, and filled ali classes Nor is the fearful excent of the passengers; and it is only when the dead, whore bodies have not been as yet recovered, are by their friends—some of them per- baps at a great distance from New York— that we can form a correct estimate of tho loss of | melancholy disaster. strangers on board the iibetarred steamboat whose tate will never be known in this world.

Our readers have not as yet forgotten the Hague street explosion ; the Greeawich avenue school acci- dont ; the fall of a block of new buildings up town, burying the workmen beneath the ruins; the azei- dents to the pamer Swallow, and the steam- | at Newburg; the falling of | the bridge at the Staten Island ferry ; and the al- most countless accidents from explosious of boilers | on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers, within the last two years. Alk of these have been ~attended with awful lass of life, and, together with the fatal results of rajjroad accidents, present en accumulation of wa destruction of human beings unparalleled in the history of the civilized world. There is not one of the secidents we have enume- rated.that is not directly traceable to the most cul- pable negligence, or the most reckless trifling with buman life. As each has followed the other, al- most in as quick succession as the train of ghosts that passed in review before the affrighted Macbeth, a temporary alarm has been created, an inquest has been held, an indignation meeting has been called, an’ indignation letter or editorial article has ap- peared in the newspapers, and sometimes grand juries have indicted the accused parties; but there the matter all ended. The tempest sub- sidedinto a calm, till the news of the next ca- tastrophe came like a mighty wind, and again lashed the popular mind into ‘ sound and fury, | | was very tame. Brendstuffs and provisions had alzo receded. A despatch from Boston furnishes sixteen days’ later advices from the Cape of Good Hope, by which we Jearn that the Kaffirs have adopted the guerilla system of warfare. They now descend from the mountains in large divisions, and murder and plunder the colonists with impunity. The steamer Prometheus arrived from San Juan, Nie., yesterday afternoon. She brings five days ster news from California. The golden State is still prospering; but no event of great importance had traxspired since the sailing of the former steamer. There is no news from the mines. Some very interesting information concerning the fishery difficulty, will be found under the tele- graphic hcad. By recent arrivals from the Bay of St. Lawrence, we learn that an anchorage duty of sixpence per ton has been demanded upon all United States vessels in the provinces. On tho 23d inst., two of our fishing veseels were seon in tow ofa British steamer, off Gaspe Head. At last accounts there were fourteen English men-of-war on the ground, and four more were ditting out at St. Jobns. All this looks as though our provincial neighbors, backed by their mother country, were really determined to give us considerable troue ble. However, our special Washington corres- pondent, it will be observed, states that no- thing serious is apprehended by those who are best ioformed in that city. Indeed, it is intimated that President Filmore is not exactly pleased with Sceretary Webster's recent course on the subject. It is anticipated that the matter will soon be amica- bly arranged by negotiation; but, in the meantime, * Com. Perry will proceed to the eastward in the steamer Mississippi, with the view of protecting, if necessary, the rights of our own citizens. The ope- rations now gomg on at the Brooklyn and oth Navy Yards throughout the conntry, denote that the government is actively preparirg for any emer- gency that may arise. Among many other eurious items in the des- patches from our special Washingt rrespondents, is the announcement that Secretary Webster will positively retire from the cabinet in afvery short time. From present indications, Mr. Webster will return to his post at all. It is likewise rumored that a warm debate took place in the executive ses- sion of the Senate, with regard to a communication from the President declining to transmit the official Correspondence concerning the proposcd cession of the Sandwich Islands to this government By the officinl correspontlence sent into the Uni+ ted States Senate yesterday, with regard to the | Mexiean Boundary Survey, it appears that Mr. Com- | selected the initial point, but | Mr. Gray, refused to mark it, for ed, that it was wrong, and the lose a large tract of territory by it. Mr. G. was thereupon dismissed, and Mr. Emery was directed to mark the point ; but he also, it is believed, refused. This is rathor an important matter, and chould be thoroughly investigated. Mr. Seward made a long speech in the United States Senate, yesterday, on the bill to authorize the exploration of the Chincee seas, and various other waters that are continually resorted to by American whalemen and merchantmen. Want of room compels us to omit the full report, which we | have received, of this epeech of the New York | Senator. The sum of $221,840, as additional com- | pensation to the Menominie Indians, for the sale of their lends in Wisconsin, was stricken from the In- dian Appropriation bilJ, and, in lieu, 225,000 was interted for the removal of said tribe to another pert of the Stete. Two or three revolutions calling for fnancia) information were adopted. They will be very apt to keep Secretary Corwin, and his aids, ‘busy én figuring up their accounts for a few da: The House of Representatives yesterday tabled, by the decisive vote of 104 to 62, the gigantic omni- deus bil, which proposed to grant land to a dozen or more States for railroad purposes. After an @x- tremely boisterous session, the Commitice of the Whole nwnoged to rid itself of the River and Har- bor bill; after which, that measure, by way of ebecking bortilities for the time being, was referred to the Comutittee on Commerce A Sarge, di,tnified, solemn, and imposing meeting of the judieiar,* and the bar assembled yesterday in | the Bnperior Coart, to pay a tribute of respect to the memory of Judge Saudfurd. A series of revolutions were passed, wvd specehes ex- pressive of tho estimation in which the de- coared was eld, a8 a distinguished juriet and a private gentleaan, were delivered Is is proposed 4 to erect « tobbet or bust to his memory, in the court whicw bas been the seene of his great labors and hie untiring attention, which, it is feared, have ac- celerated his death, and cont him to an early but an honored towl ne 2cvount of the lamentable missioner Bartlett that the surveyor, the reason hea United States wo signifying nothing.’ Hitherto, nothing has been done to put a stop to these massacres, as we must callthem. The Staten Island tragedy, which is the most recent, is a case in point. Great excitement prevailed, an inquest was held upon the dead bodies, and it was very clear that the bridge was insuffi- cient to support the weight of human beings who were permitted to cruwd upon it. Yet the excite- ment and indignation have all ended in smoke. No steps have been taken by the officers of the law to bring the guilty parties to justice. What is the cause of this delinquency on the part of the authorities? Let the sad truth be told. The proprietors of steamboats and the directors of rail- roads, and other wealthy capitalists, have too much influence over juries and coroners and dis- trict attorneys, and they are unwilling to do their duty to the community. The owners, directors, captains, pilots, conductors, and engineers, of steam- boats and railroads, finding that no punishment fol- lows the destruction of human life, by their culpa- ble neglect or criminal recklessness, become carcless of consequences, and the result is, that these aeci- dents are every day increasing and multiplying. We recollect very well that in the ease of the Empire, of Troy, juries sat at Newburg, and sat at Fishkill, at the opposite side of the river, for weeks, investigating the cause of the fatal accident; and the Grand Jury and United States Marshal of this city, had also a finger in the pie; but the whole affair terminated in nothing. In the case of the school house calamity the jury made such a mess of a verdict that no legal action could be taken upon it. In the case of the Hague street ex- potion, the jury did their duty most manfally; but theGrand Jury and the District Attorney did not perform their part, and thus the matter vanished in yipor. In the ease of the Staten Island accident, on the 5th of July, a Staten Island jury rendered the ludierous verdict that ‘deceased came by | their deaths by accidental drowning, by reason of breaking of the bridge’—thus passing no opinion upon what was a question of great public interest— whether the bridge was or was not constructed with due regard to the safety of passengers, and whether due diligence was exercised in keeping chains in proper order, and in preventing the bridge from be- | ing over crowded. It was stated at the time, that | they considered this more a subject for the Grand Jury than for them. But we have nover heard that the Grand Jury paid the sfightest attention to the [ matter since, and we verily belicve they never will. | Tn the presont case, a meeting of passengers, held at the Aetor House yesterday, expressed the deep- est indignation, as will be seen by reference to an- other part of this day’s paper. They say that they desire to “express their disapprobation, in the most unqualified terms, of the apparent recklessness of human life, in the eystem of racing practised by steamboats generally—that they will adopt sueh measures ag Will secure them from pecuniary loss, and, if possible, bring the offenders to punishment, and to protect the travelling public from such like occurrences, so far as their influence and action may extend—that the meeting is credibly in- formed by one of the passengers, that he as- sisted in extinguishing a fire on board previous to the disaster at Yonkers—that the Henry Clay and the Armenia had been racing, from the moment of their leaving Albany until the time of the disaster— that they learn with the deepest indignation, that tar, or some euch inflammable ingredient, was freely used to make steam, while racing with the Arme- nia, and that the safety valve was actually tied down during this reprehensible race.” A coroner's jury in Westchester county has been holding an in- quest for the last two days, upon the dead bodies brought to shore, but have not yet expressed their opinion upon the criminal cause of the accident. The question is, will all this lead to any practical re- sult? We fear not, and that we shall only have a repetition of the “Jame and impotent conclusion” that has characterized every previous disaster. The only hope of having this wanton, reckless, Commitvee on Commerce. This bill contains a num- ber of provisions for the protection of human life, iv all vestels propelled by steam.

There was an active demand this morning fer all the leading fancy «tucks, and better prices were obtained for nearly every one offered The fishing excitement has al- most entirely subsided. and the market opened quite buoyant, At the frst board Erio Railroad advanced 3¢ per cent; Florence and Keyport, 14; Norwich and Worces- ter, 36; Nicaragua, 3s, Harlem, };; Panama Railroad, 14; Panama Bonds, 1; Hudsou River Railroad, 2.

The transactions in Erie Railroad were very heavy The buyers were more abundant than rell- ers, and the market stiifencd towards the close, The ad- vance in Hudson River Rwilroad stock is attributed to the burning of thesteamer Henry Clay, it doubtless being the impression that, fora time at least, the trafie of the road willincrease Tariem may be alightly benedtted in thesame way. This stock is destined to touch higher prices, Thorecent conversion of bonds had precisely the effect we anticipated It would do the stock good to eon- vert the remaining million of extension bonds. Speeula- tors would then know just what to bace their operations upon. There were larger trancactions in Dauphin than we have noticed for some time, and prices were well gus- tained, There appears to be nothing new in the perspective, likely to affect the stock murket unfavorably. Mons abundant at four percent. The cod‘ish excitement has expended it-eif: many speculators and outsiders have re- turned frou: the country, and it is the prevailing impres- sion that early in August an active movement will com. maence in oll the leading fancies With the prospect of an casier money market thiovghout the fall than wo have ever before experienced, with the rates of interest. on short or call loans roling as low as three per cent, With prices for stocks generally but moderately inflated, the position of holders of stocks iv a strong one, and they will doubtless reap handsome protits on their investments. Amidst all the reeent activily in speeutation, quotations for stocks have not rapidly or lnrgely expanded. Tho Teading railroad eveurities, on tho contrary, rule low. The high rates of interest paid, and the large diyi- denda earned, compared with the reduced rates of interest ruling in Wall strect, must attract the ale tention of capitalists at home aud abroad, and create a more active demand than we have yet had. Whatever doubts may have existed relative to a con tinuance of the plentiful supply of money and perma- nent ease in the market, no foundation fur apprehension any longer exists, and calculations can be made with the greatest certainty, based upon cheapness and abundance of money. During the past month, our exports of aproto have been less than one querer of our reesipts, and the lorge supply of foreign excharge on the market shows that for roime time to come shipments of specly will be limited. This, of tteeif, is sufilctent to givea great im. petus to speculation, and stocks are more likely to feukit thon anything elze, Real extute bus already reached very high points, 'rices for houses and lots have, in some instances, doubled two and three times, aud the inilation | has been too rapid even for the times, It is our impros+ sion that for Ume real estate will be partially negleoved, and the surplus resources of speculators employed in the stock market, At the second board there was a more | bnoyant feeling in the street, und stocks generally ad- vanced, Nicaragua went np !g per cent; New Jersey Zine. 44; Norwich and Woreester, }4; Rochester and Syracuse, 1; Hudson River Raiivoad, 4; Erie Railroad, 34; Harlem, ); Northern Indiana Railroad, Jy, At the close the tendency was upward.
