Ata late hourlast night, a privete despatch was received from an old ‘Philadelphia politicien, saying that the democratic | ‘majority in Pennsylvania would not fall short of | eight thousand, from the way in which the returns were comingin. The returns thus far received, cer- tainly indicate {that this old politician is about | Fight. However, we shall be better able to tell | how the suatter stands to-morrow morning. The thre’e days’ later European intelligence re- eeived by the arrival of the steamer America at | Halifax, yesterday, is of a rather more interesting | character thar was brought to this port on the day previous by the Franklin. The state of affairs 3m France, leaves nv room for doubt that not only Louis Nopoleon, but the people of France generally, were prepared for the empire.

The Faglish journals seom almost barren of news, if we except ; their criticiems on recent transactions on this conti- nent. They are still quite severe upon the Lobos island affair. But what will interest business men more than anything clse, was the improved state of the markets. Cotton had slightly advanced, and Closed firm at Liverpool on the Ist inst.

The British Attempt to Bribe the American Press. We stated yesterday, that wo bad received a very remarkable letter from London, written at No. 17 Change Alley, and signed by Williams & Lockhart, enclosing fifty pounds sterling for the purpose of procuring political aid in certain objects stated by the writers, in'referenee to the pending elections in this city and county, together with the elections throughout the country at large. In order that the publio may be enabled to thoroughly understand the character of this. offer, we annex the letter, printed from the original, which is in our possession, and can be shown to any person who chooses to examine its contents :— Loxvox, Sept. 27, 1852. 17 Cuancr Acer. To the Eprror or Tur New York Henarp:— Sir—We address you as # public journalist, having un- derstocd your paper to be eimiluc to the Examiner, not taking sides in politics, but one that is used very much in the Uniled States to influence | oaged Opinion, and like the Examiner and Leader in this city, employed very sucoess- fully in popular elections. We do not know the rate of compensation you receive for such services, but we are willing, with what we can get from others, to pay you ‘more than you could realize from any other course. if successful in our object. We kaye understood from an American gentleman direct from the United States, that the General Walivridge who was in London last year, ex- pects to.be brought torward for the Amer:cau Parliament ut the coming polls, and we are desirous of preventing his success; and with this view address you conjidentially on the subject. ‘This person was the first to form the California gold mining companies in England, and induced hundreds of stock brokers to engage in his fascinating spec- ulations. Pretending to place se high an estimate ou the value of his expected dividends. Afler the same had been duly registered, he refused all applications to sell at any price; and availing himeelf of the respecta- ble connections he had formed in this country. and rely ing on the credulity of the Evgli*h people, while he pre tended to be a purchaser of stock, he was privately seli- ing the tame, and ruined hundreds of holders, who thus foolishly lockea up their funds in this worse than South Bea bubbie. Obtaining an introduction to our Preauer, Lorp Deany, through the Hon. Mr. Walker, formerly the chancello. of your exchequer, be negotiated with his lordship thou fands of mining shares, which Mr. Walker felt calied upon to redeem, for the eredit and honor of the Ameri can name. As the agent of Col. Fremont in this country. he embaraseed bis property. and prevented his selling his interest when it would have realized here more than two millions sterling At the first opening of the Crystal Pa lace, when the Hon. Mr. Stansbury was the Commissioner from the United States, he was introduced by this gen teman to various persons connected with the American department in the exhibition, from all of whom, as well as fiom Mr. Stansbury, he borrowed large sums of money, and. as we understand. not one farthing has ever been re- turned. Huving been invited to the July banquet given by Mr, George Peabody, the American banker. notwith- standing there were hundreds of ladies present, he bs- came beastly intoxicated, and insnited nearly every English gentleman present by declaring “that the go vernment of the United States intended to add Ireland to the number of American States, and that ifhe was President, he would be d——d if Engtand should not fight. or declare herself independent of the other allied powers of Europe.” We are quite sure that our late member from the Tower Hamlets, 7 heres pe would visit the United is friends against countenaacing any which would place this General Watibridge in nomination, if you should deem it advisable. At allevents, he will write to his particular friends, by this steamer, us to what course should be pursued; and our Mr. Wil- liams has, by a prior steamer, also written to Mr. Hart, the sitting member from your city, who. it is understood, isa gentleman of great wealth and high consideration with his constituency. We enclose you a Kank ot England note for £50, and authorize you to draw on us through the Messrs. Coutis & Co. for two hundred pounds additional, in case you éflect the object we have in view. ‘We hope to have your co-operation in this matter, and subscribe ourselves your obedient servants, WILLIAMS & LOCKHART, There is the documentitself. This letter enclosed, as it states, a Bank of England note for fifty pounds, which we bave found to be good and genuino money, and which we have changed, receiving therefor about $250, which we have in our posses- sion. Who Williams and Lockhart are, we have no means of ascertaining, never having heard of their names or occupations before, and knowing nothing of them now but what they state themselves, of their residence at No. 17 Change Alley, London. But from the business character of their note, and from the precise nature of the propositions aud | expectations set forth, we suepect that they bo- long to that set of English solicitors and agents wh? are used by the politicians of Great Britain in regu- | lating and managing the various elections for the {n conducting contested elec- tions in that country, for many years past, a settled and recognized system of bribery and corruption, conducted on quiet but effective principles, bas been | prasticed by every party, and all parties, in England. The voters.and the newspaper press, with, perhaps, the exception of some of the leading London jour- nals, are generally bought up and transferred from veceived Bank of England notes for doing go. Some | resent events look suspicious. EQ" the otherwise, the s mise measures, tWO yea 29 then, and now isfor Seward at Scott. Twenty years so vast, fertile, rich in mineral re- | Jer and a drunkard, and making other vile impo- patron to patron, like blood horses from a noble- | man’s stud, or like cattle in the Smithfield beef mar- ket. Williams aad Lockhart have, therefore, ims gined—and they have acted on the belief—that the American press ic egnducted on the same prin- ciples; and it is very likely, from anything that wo knew to the contrary, that several of our con- temporaries in Wall street, who have lately changed their political course without any obvious reason, may have been im corres- | pondence with these gentlemen, and may have The New York ‘ess, formerly a Sewaid paper, received from ».“ Safety Committee, in subscriptions and niow “aa of $8,000 to support the compro- preago. Tt was for Filmore ago another contemporary in Wall street recvived frow the United States Bank $52,000 “or abandon- ing General Jackson and supporting the Coposite ticket in that day. It was for Webster, and no™ is for Seward and Scott. And another pious contem- porary, in the cotton and sugar line, living in ths same street, which was originally started by Ar- | thur Tappan and his friends, may, in consequence | of a similar correspondence with Change Alley, feel diaposed to return to ite first love, or at least to be neutral in the present interesting contest, in | which we have the Union and the constitution on one side, and William H Seward, his nominee, and | the spoils, on the other side | The apparent purpose of Williams and Lockhart, in their lerter to us, and particularly in the en- closure of fifty pounds, is to defeat the election of were with him of the Bank of England, and with the great finan- cier, Mr. Peabody, and he introduced us to one of the principal editors of the Lendon Times. The stories told by Williams and Lookhart, and commu- nicated te Mr. Hart, (probably | ceed—the people demand a decision fr Genera! Wallbridge, of this qjty, who has boen no- tajnated for Congress by the demooracy of the Third dietrict. But ivia evident, from the inteo- duction of the name of the rovorious George Lhomp- fon. and the ‘intentions Sedicated with ths view, that the purposes understood betwoon the stock jobbers of London ard the British anti-slavery par ty, are to affect, by money and otherwise, the elections in ‘his country, in a way favora ble to the anti-slavery cause, so completely identified with William H. Seward. The vio- of General Wallbridge, representing bim as a rind- tations against his good name, must have originated stockjobbera, who, it seems, were unable, with all their financial ekill und robbery, to cope with bim during his residence in London, or cheat him out of his int cert Ov) foreta mir i stockjobbers in London, of whom we shall probably hear something more of interest by and bye. We have not the slightest doubt that every one of these slanders against General Wallbridge are the coinage ef the London Stock Exchange, adopted by the anti-slavery faction there,and intended to operate, in combination with other objects, for the purpose of aiding the anti-slavery cause in this country. Bat who is the American gentleman referred to, who informed them of the political prospects of General Wallbridge ? From the context of the letter, and from the developements let out in reference to the notorious George Thompson, is it not evident that some abolition agent—some pipe-laying opera- tor from this side of the water—has been sont by Seward & Co. to raise money in England from the abolition interest, or from any other interest, to get them through the contest in this country? The in- ference is natural enough; and probably the time will come when the whole intrigue will be deve- loped, like the famous pipe-laying affair formerly concocted in this neighborhood. But to-day we have no time orroom to say all that has been sug gester our mind by this strange letter, with the enolosure of fifty pounds. It is a singular affair, from beginning to end, and it becomes more extra ordinary still when we find that Thompson, of abo lition memory, is intimately connected with Wil- liams and Lockhart, the agents in this curious business. Whether any of our cotemporariea in Wall street have received similar letters, enclosing similar or larger amounts of Bank of Bagland notes, they can best tell. In conclusion, we have only to say, that.in- stead of retaining the money sent to us, as these ingenious solicitors in Change alley antioi- pate, we shall endeavor to appropriate the amount already received to charitable purposes, of a public nature, in this city; and ifany more of the same kind of change should be sent us from the same quarter, it shall be appropriated in the same,man- ner. Mr. Hart, alluded to as a retiring member of Con- gress, knows anything of the Mr. Williams who is stated to be im correspondence with him on the same subject? Let us have a full investigation of this curious business. ‘The Last Hombug—The Investigation before the Canal Board at Albany. We have awaited, with considerable anxiety, the result of the investigations of the Canal Board at Albany, into the charges laid before that body by George W. Newell, the Auditor of the Canal Depart, ment. On the 25th day-of August—six days before the assemblivg of the democratic State convention at Syracuse—the democratic Auditor preferred a complaint to the democratic Canal Board, alleging, in terms, that John C. Mather, democratic Canal Commissioner, Smith A. Waterman and David Bar- rett, democratic Canal Superintendents, had been guilty of ‘‘a wasteful and improvident expenditure of the public money, legitimately belonging to the canal fund.” Accompanying this document was a long array of statistics, comparing the expenditures of several previous years with the present—tho average expenditures per mile—the various amounts paid for timber and lumber—the cost of repairs— from all which it was apparent that the officials therein charged had been deficient in economy, and been extravagant and feckless in the expenditure of the public money. So palpably manifest did this appear upon ite face, that Mr. Chatfield, the demo- cratic Attorney General, offered a resolution at onco that Waterman and Barrett be removed from office. Upon taking the question, the vote stood—ayes, Chatfield, barnburner; Fitzhugh, whig; and McAl- In the negative were, Church, baru- pine, bunker. burner; Wright, soft-shell; Cook, whig; and Mather, huvker. Mr. Wright offered a resolution, citing the said Superintendents to appear before the Canal Board qn the 7th day of September, which was adopted. The Auditor’s communication was then ordered to be published—fifty copies for the use of the Canal Board, and also in the newspapers. This firebrand thrown into the democratic camp upon the eve of the assembling of the State conven- tion, produced the most tremendous consternation among the democracy all over the State, but ws considered a god-cend to the whigs. The fact of ono set of officials charging another set of officials with extravagance in the use of the public moneys, just at the moment when a nomination was to be made for State officers, was inexplicable and incomprehensi- ble. Why not wait until after the election? every- body inquired. Why did Wright and Chatfield allow Newell to present those charges against the bunker officials at a time when the harmony of the party was indispensable? The whigs chuckled—it was nuts for them to crack. Upon proceeding to investigate the charges, the assistance of several lawyers—democratic lawyers— was obtained. The Canal Board employed two, aud the accused a couple of others. From that day until the 5th day of October instant, about a whole month, that body has been engaged in the matter. During the whole period, the opposite factions, through their papers and otherwise, have taken sldes—the barnburnere sustaining Wright, Chatfield and the Auditor—the hunkers bellowing for the dis- charge of Newell, and swearing that John C. Mather, Smith A. Waterman and David Bar- rett, were a persecuted trio, and as innocent of the charge as cooing doves. asthe trial became protracted. Two members of the Canal Board being up for re-election, and be- longing to the opposite faction—one hunker and the other burner—there was great difficulty to be ap- prehended. The barnburners becamo alarmed jor the fate of Seymour and Church, and they began to cry peccavi- they alleged that Newell’s document | was only a private paper for secret consideration— that they had no intention of making it public, os- pecially before election; and they really bogan to think that there was not much blame attached to the demooratic officials, after all. They entreated | the hunkerg to etop further inquiry until a “ more | convenient season.” ‘No, no,” said Mather and | Follett. The miseile was aimed atus One was candidate for Governor, who was frightened off the couree by it, and the other is now a candi ee f Canal Commissioner. The investigation od and one mustbe had.

Fuss and feathers—oh ! Cvusa anp THE New Yorx Conservative Press. —BSome of the journals now defend the action of the Cuban authorities in respect to the bark Cornelia, professing to see in it nothing but the porfectly Jegal and justifiable execution of police regulations necessary for the defence and protection of the island. The case of the detention and imprisonment of British colored sailors at Charleston, under the police regulations of South Carolina, is quoted as a case in peint to illustrate the right which every eovereignty possesses to enforce its own internal laws, no matter how inconsistent they may be with the native principles and institutions of such for- cigners as may come under their operation. Perhaps there is a slight degree of justice and applicability in this view of the case. The secre- tion of the man Hearkness on board ,the Cornelia may have been such @ violation of the police laws of Havana as to subject the officers of the vessel to severe penalties. But while all knowledge of the presence of the stowaway is denied by the captain and crew, it is not at allat variance with the perfidious Spanish character to believe that this Hearkness was merely a decoy, placed there by directions of the Captain General, to give a color o¢ legality to their subsequent acts. And this, indeed, would appear to be a plausable version of the mat- ter, from the fact stated by the captain that the fine of a thousand dollars, incurred by this offence, was offered to be remitted in case he would deliver up the letters and parcels lodged with him by theman Guzman. The Spanish authorities did not care at all about Mr. Hearkness, but only laid their plans to get possession of Guzman’s packet, and of the Cornelia’s mails. The conduct of the authorities of Cuba, both in reference to the Cornelia and to the Crescent City» has been in the highest degree insulting, overbear- ing and indefensible. Their impudence and contempt of treaty stipulations, and of the ordinary courtesy and respect due to a friendly flag, were carried beyond any reasonable limit, and impose on this government the duty of demanding satis- faction. There was no necessity of their exercising the powers given them by their peculiar police regu- lations, in such an insulting and brutal manner ; nor do we recognise the propriety of following a ves- sel afterleaving port, boarding her, dopriving tho captain of his command, and playing the filibuster in robbing her of her mails. Nor had the strin- gency of police regulations anything to do with the expulsion from their harbor of aregular mail steam- on board an officer who was not in very good odour with these petty despots. Mr. Smith, the purser, misrepresenting Cuban affairs to the newapapors of thiscity. Nor ean we admit thateven if the charge were true, the Spanish government possess any right to interfere with anAmerican subject on account of what he may have said or done in this country. We conceive that the defence of the Spanish officials, on these grounds, is very lame and untenable; and if they can find no better excuse for their acts, they must make the amende honorable, or abide the con- sequence. Haz my On10—Tue Prot Leaking ovr ar THE Bun@Hote.—From certain extracts and correspond- ence from several Ohio papers, which we publish to-day, it appears that John P. Hale has been let- ting the cat out of the bag to some of his brother free soilers, who thought the secret too good to keep. And truly the plot was a wise affair, but it has been so transparent for some time as to require very little proof te convince the public that the ob- ject of the clectioneering trip of Hale to Ohio has soil democrats to vote for Hale, and at the same time to rope in the free soil whigs to the support of General Scott. But the discovery of the trick will be very apt to spoil his calculations. Indeed, the rampant abuse, by Greeley, of Joshua R.
