THIS BVENING. CASTLE GARDEN.—Sacnen Concent. ———— Hew York, Sunday, July 24, 1953. ‘The News. The steamship Arctic, from Liverpool, arrived at this port yesterday evening, bringing the London journals and European intelligence to the 13th instant. The news is very interesting and important. The all-absorbing Eastern question was becoming more complicated in its details; but still the popular sentiment of the whole of Europe would seem to in- dicate a peaceful issue. The Emperor of Russia en- deavors to maintain his position before the world by a second manifesto from Count Nesselrode, and a Proclamation from his general-in-chief commanding in Moldavia. Both documents exhibit an unyielding, fanatical and arrogant spirit quite in tenor with the former productions of the Cabinet of the Autccrat. In England, however, it seems to be understood that the occupation of the Danubian provinces is not to be regarded as a casus beil’, and that an ami- cable adjustment would yet be effected. An impres- sion was gaining ground upon the Continent that England would not maintain her position with her usual firmness, and the Parliamentary explanations and articles of the London press seemed to favor that opinion. Austria had pressed upon the Porte in the hour of need, and sided with the Czar, by renewing her old demands upon the Sultan. From Madrid, we learn that another ministerial crisis was threaten- ed. The difficulties between Switzerland and Aus tria are said to have been adjusted. Our Athens advices inform us that the American Envoy had in- sisted upon the aunulling of the judgment pro- nounced on Mr. King. We have received files of the Overland Friend of China, published at Victoria, dated down to the 5th of May. The papers do not contain any intelligence regarding the progreas of the revolution, nor any more definite information concerning the relative po- sitions of the contending parties, farther than that which bas already appeared in our columns. We always expected that the upheaving of this rebellion would present the state of society, arts, literature, and morals, as t Teally exist in the Flowery King. dom, to our view in quite a new and wonderful light, and that we would find that the pri at least, of many scientific discoveries co: quite recent by us, were known to the di: Confucius. We were not prepared, however, for the announcement that the neighborhood of the city of Amoy was cursed with the existence of the modern New York nuisance of “Short Boys.’ However, a letter dated there in the latter end of “There has been a rising of the Short Kuife $ at Sechau, near Swatow, some four to five thousan men, with the same object: ed, as the rebels in the north.” The Celes' s00n be abcad of us. By the arrival of the British brig Falcon, Capt Tuzo, we have dates from the West Indies to the 1st instant. The exemption of American whaling ves sels from light dues, when touching at the various island ports, is an important and liberal measure conceived and carried out with a true commerc appreciation of the benefits of international mewn and tuwm advantages. The yellow fever raged at Dominica. Our Washington despatch contains several items ef interest. Seamen of the navy entitled to extra psy cannot obtain it by personal application; conse- quently their claims must be preeented through agente, by which operation it is likely poor Jack will get the shells while the attorney eats the oyster. The President will uct leave the White House. R. G. Barnwell has been appointed consul at Arsterdam, The rumor of the establishment of a press at Wash" ington, to be called the National Democrat, is re- | vived. J. W. Forney, it is said, will be the edit and it will advocate Southern democratic Union interests. ° A despatch from New Orleans announces the ar- rival at that port of the steamship Empire City from Havana, with dates to the 19th inst. The news was unimportant. Hon. Solon Borland left on the 18th for Pensacola, to embark for Central America Advices from Tampico to the Sth inst. had like- wise been received, but contained nothing of interest. Gen. ,Woll ridicules the idea of the Mesilla Valley question producing a rupture between Mexico and the United States. Accounts from Santa Fe to June 11 state that public meetings had been held protesting against the enforcement of the law of Congress directing the re- moval of California Indians to New Mexico. The silver mines at 1 Paso had proved exceedingly va Iuable. Gov. Lane, who had been seriously iP, was recovering. As usual on Sabbath morning, we publish a com- prehensive synopsis of religious intellig will undoubtedly command general attention. The steamship City of Manchester, from Liver pool, arrived at Philadelphia last night. The steamers St. Lawrence and Queen City came in collision, on Lake Erie, on Friday night. Fortu- nately no lives were lost. A graphic report of the proceedings at the Fire man’s jubilee at New Haven ‘will be found on an-, other page. In connection with this will be founda report of the second trial of the New York firemen. ‘Those interested in the welfare and advancement of the fire department of our own and neighboring cities and towns will read this report with pleasure ‘The total number of deaths during the past week, ‘Was five hundred and twenty-one, which is a decrease of forty-three on the mortality of the previous week. There were two hundred and seventeen deaths among children under one year, and three hundred and fi/ty. seven among children under ten years, Cholera infantum appears to be exceedingly prevalent at this particular season. Last week we had to record eighty-four deaths from this fatal disease, while this week the number is seventy-three. Diarrhova is also very prevalent, no less than thirty-one persons having Ajed from it during the past week. The number of deaths from consumption was forty-nine; from dysen- ‘ery, forty-three; from marasmus, tweaty.two; and fiom dropey in the head, twenty-five. There were tventy-#ix stillborn. Whe Balance Sheet of War. 4 Solomon is one of the few potentates whom history presents as “counting the cost” of a war beforchand. Whether the fact was due to | his superhuman sagacity. or whether nations have declined in wisdom since his time, we can- not accurately determine ; but nothing is more certain than that our ancestors and their co- | temporaries went to war among themselves about little or nothing, and marched armies against each other without so much as a glance at the state of their reepective exchequers. j Wounded vauity, hereditary feuds, aad above | all, insatiable ambition. were usual occasions | of strife : nothing operated as a drawback but | fear of defeat and want of men. Cowper con- | signs to infamy the kings Who, for the sake of filling with one blast The post horns of all Europe, lay her waste. He might with equal reason have poured out — the phials of his wrath on the monarchs who, | from time to time, have plunged their subjects into a war without the slightest hope of being able to bearitsexpense. Napoleon I. was a fine example of this sort. Revolutions and foreign wars had pretty well drained France when he undertook his Russian campaign: neither men | nor money were to be found. Had he “counted the cost” of defeat, he would most assuredly | have disbanded half that magnificent host | which he reviewed in May on the Champ de | Mars, or at least have quartered them in some provincial town—instead whereof, he must needs march them to Moscow, victory being not | a desirable prize, but a necessary condition of | existence. History tells the rest. Had his ex- | chequer been full when he returned, he need never have retired to Fontainebleau. and Wel- | lington would never have entered Paris. He | had not * counted the cost.” A fine contrast to this mode of proceeding is presented by the conduct of the English at the | present time. Provocation for his invasion, Napoleon had none. Great Britain has ample | grounds for declaring war against Russia, if | she thought fit. Whatever wide construction may be put upon the treaty of Balta Liman, it is clear that none of those contingencies on the occurrence of which the Czar was authorized to garrison Jassy, have taken place. No insur- rection has broken out, no violation of treaties been even plotted—all is as quiet as if the Rus- sians still held the Principalities. Look at the crossing of the Pruth in a calm, philosophic light, and it constitutes as glaring a breach of treaties, as unprincipled a violation of good faith and honor on the part of Russia. as history ever recorded. A hundred times the peace of Europe has been upset on a far less sub- stantial pretext. On less solid grounds, Eng- land has herself, on more than one occasion, despatched her troops to foreign capitals and | bombarbed foreign ports. On a less direct at- tempt to disturb the much vaunted balance of power, all the Western governments have taken the alarm, and London, Paris, Berlin and Vienna have re-echoed with portentous menace of war. Yet the horizon beams with peace. Na- poleon, indeed, talks loudly of /a guerre and la glorie, and /a grande armée; but no one is deluded into a belief that his warlike aspir: tions proceed from a disinterested source. Aus- ivia is deliciously pacific : a nation of Quakers, | arace of Cobdens could not breathe purer vows for Chris y and,brother affcets to discredit the whole so-Turkish | dispute, and observes a strict neutrality. Eag- land is, in fact, the centre towards which all | es converge; no decisive step will be taken unless she leads the way. And England tacitly | Imits that the invasion of the Principalities is | not a casus belli. She has not arrived at that conclusion by a | areful study of Grotius, or o discriminating | ysis of her own history. Shé had not | sought in the annals of Europe a precedent for uch forbearance. Had she done so she would | found none. But she has calinly « shect of ruled paper into a debtor and credi- | tor account. On ‘the one side she has entered | th of loss likely to accrue to England | ry inution of British exports to-Consten” | tinople, and on the other the net deficit which the closing of the Baltic and the blockade of | Odessa would be likely to occasion in her re- ey have edt | venue and her supplies of produce. She has carefully examined the amount of | cotton twist exported from England to | hoth countries, and weighed to a pound | the corn they send her in return. Having | added to either column, with mercantile accu- | racy. every item which could or ought to be | taken into account, she has deducted the one | from the other, and, finding a balance against | the Principalities, has quietly declared that | there are no grounds for war. A good deal of | clamor was made by the cotton spinners, who, | know that Moldavia and Wallachia would ot manufacture for them-elves, while Russia does, demanded that the former should be pro- | tected; but the corn eaters and timber con- sumers appealed in triumph to the trade and | navigation tables, and proved that if war were declared, both would rise in price. This waa entirely conclu: The balance was in fayor of peace. Considerations of principle, of ab- stract right and wrong, were urged by a few med individuals; but these were very properly silenced. It was obviously a question of profit and logs; and there being more pvofit and less loss on the side of peace than of war, the former policy was adopted by the nation. Let us suppose that we follow so landable an example with regard to Mexico. The follow- ing would represent the account, or pretty near- lys— .

Tinep ov Grory.—It is said that Mrs. Farriet Beecher, since the declination of Queen Victoria to admit her to Court, has become dis- gusted with the tomfoolery of being lionized among the Europeans as the historian of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, and is going to spend a few weeks, for the restorative influences of re- tirement, among the mountains of Switzerland. Stafford House was a delusion. The Duchess of Suther'and is ahumbug. She could not ad mit her friend into the royal presence. That was enough. Mra. Stowe retires in disgust, She has found the real “key to Uncle Tom’s Cabin. She is tired of glory. Let her “go in yeace, Wire /a bagatelle’ Kossors amp wis Aumniqan Conrnisutions.— The organ of Kossuth denies that he is now living in England upon bis American contribu- tions to the cause of ‘down-trodden Hun- gary,” and says that he spent these con- tributions all for the cause of his country. Perbaps he did. He collected a hundred thousand dollars, more or less; made some investments in saddles and cavalry harness, and in some old muskets at two dollars a-piece, and authorized an issue of bills of credit, payable hereafter, in the form of Hungarian bonds, which business he left to the Central Hungarian Committee of this city. Now. it would be interesting to know what this committee has been doing, what loans they have made, what funds they have raised, and where they have gone, if Kossuth has not re. ceived them. We suppose the saddles, cavalry harness and old muskets. are waiting for trans- portation to Hungary, either here or elsewhere, ig they have not been sold over again. All this, however. requires explanation be- fore we can be fully satisfied that Kossuth is living independently of his American collec- tions. To be sure, it would be a more sensible disposition of the money than his investments in arms and munitions of war. We only de- sire a straight account. Kinkel raised in this country a sum of about sixty thousand dollars, and, like a practical man, as there was no visible opening for a revolution in Germany, he applied his money to the establishment of a lager bier factory somewhere, which ought to be doing a great business, Garibaldi, when republican Italy was lost, embarked in com- mercial pursuits, and has made a fortune in the Pacific. But Kossuth, after collecting a hun- dred thousand dollars in the United States, more or less, is said to be living in London like an old Roman. upon bread and cheese, not having touched a dollar of the American contributions for Hungary. Have those con- tributions and those bonds been merged in the general fund of the Irish Directory, or how? | A generous public ought to have a frank state- ment of the case. What has become of all those Hungarian collections, of all sorts, made in the United States? Can anybody tell? Frep. Doveiass anp Gerrit Suita—Party Prosrects.—That enterprising black philanthro- pist; Frederick Douglass, has been visiting Ger- rit Smith, one of our New York delegation elect to the next Congress, and pronounces him an ultra abolitionist,» a thorough- going land reformer, an out-and-out Maine liquor law or temperance man, & peace man, a gentleman, a Christian, a statesman, and “a politician without policy,” and “a man of honor without pride.” And Douglass fur- ther challenges the emissaries of = y at Washington to touch him if they dare. ow. if all this be true. Gerrit will prove to he the most extraordinary Smi ver sent toCongress, and bating his abolition m, something of a cu- | riosity in the House of Representatives. And yet, with such aman to re-open the war upon the slavery question, what do we see among the New York democracy? Instead of uniting upoa the Baltimore platform, we find them wrangling, like cais and dogs, over the public plunder. Unless these things are mended, Smith, back- ed up by Douglass, will break down the New York demecracy in the next Congress, } and crect upon their ruins, the platform of land reform, abolitionism. the Maine liquor law, and Affairs are drifting in that direction very fast. Douglass knows his man, and is no slouch of a politician. Smith, too. has his policy, whatever his good man Friday may sey to the contrary. His policy is to seize upon the first opening in the democratic ranks— to stepin between the two factions, and destroy them hy a new party, with Seward at the head Smith in the centr¢, and Douglass at the ta‘ Douglass is right. Gerrit Smith, if he li will make a sensation in Washington. Let the hards and softs reflect and tremble. He is in for all the locse materials, at apremiam. The Seward whigs are ng the signal. A new organization of political parties is at hand. Let ibe friends of the Union prepare to unite. 28 | Seward, Smith and Donglass will watch the drift of the parties. The present democratic organization is too rotten to last. The whigs are disbanded. There must be a change. Cer- rit Smith is coming, with his new platform. Make way. Newrort Looxina Ura Lrereu—Tun Liquor Trarric.—According to the list of the Newport Mercury, there were some seventy or aty arrivals at that place on the twenty-second instant, and a good portion of them were from | the South, notwithstanding the Maine Liqnor law. These accessions may be partially due to the fact that the law is a dead letter in Rhode Tsland, so that visilers are not limited to salt water and ginger pop at Newport ; or they may be due to our Crystal Palace, which is unques- tionably operating to the advantage of all the Northern watering and liquoring places, in- cluding Newport and Downing’s refectory. But, for the better enlightenment of the travelling public, we ask leave to suggest to our cotemyo- rary of the Mercury the extent to which the Maine law applies to Newport, and some statis ties of the liquor traffic in that law-abiding city, since the passage of this law. As we are going to have the subject agitated this fall at Coney Island and Saratoga, a few practical facts coa- cerning the actual working of the cold water statute of Rhode Island may he useful in New York. What is the present liquor traffic a Newport. under the Maine law? . Axornpn Piom to Yousa America.—It 's reported from Washington that Mr. John MN. Daniel, editor of the Richmond ZLaraminer, hes heen appointed Charge 4’Affairs to Sardinia, in the place of Hon. R. K. Meade, declined. Mr. Meade isa Southern rights man; bat Daniel is the very personification of State rights and Young America, in their most intensified embo- diment. Had he been appointed minister to Turkey we should count upon a war between the Porte and the Czar in less than six months, whether the u/timatissinum of Nicholas were accepted or rejected. But in Sardinia he must content himself in helping the exiles of Austria to reach this country, or in writing letters for the newspapers. It will he a great relief, how- ever, to the old fogies of Old Virginia to get this young, dashing and untameable salamander out of the way. But what will Gov. Cobb, of Georgia, do? Daniel has read him out of the democratic ranks as a deserter on tho falao Watform of the Union party. Can Mr. Cobb consent to this and take the stump for a seces sionist as his successor? Where is Goy. Cobb now?

Steamboat Collisiun on Lake Erte. Burrato, Jaly 23, 1853. Last night, about half past ten o’clock, the steamer St. Lawrence, a new Sandusky and Buffalo boat, bound np, snd the Queen City, bound down, ceme in c/llision on Lake Frie. ‘The St. Lawrence was bent and her hull broken out be- low the vater, and filled tothe bulkhead, which resisted the further progress of the water. Had ehe fen built vithout s bulkhead, she must bave filled and sunk, The Queen City was not much damaged, but hada large number of passengers on board, amongst whom the greatest excitement prevailed.

The most important item of news is with regard to the action of the House of Assembly of Bermuda, in the EXEMPTION OF AMERICAN WHALING VESSELS FROM LIGHT DUES. We copy the following from the Bermudian, of July 13th :— ‘The House of Assembly, by a large majority, adopted a resolution on Monday, July 11, directing the Reesiver General te exempt from the payment of light dues all vecnels altiving within the putts cf these iniauis TOAL shall be engaged in the whale fishery. The o- ject of this meacure is to encoursge tuch veascls to visit Bermnda for the purpose of landing their cargoes of oil for ship ment to the United States. It has heen prompted by the circumstance of two American whalers, (the ship Sylph, and the brig Sarauel Cook,) having arrived here some ten days since with a copsicerab’e quantity of «perm aad common whale ot oa board, which they have Jan ied, aud the ;ame has been shipped to New York in Bermuda yas- fels. These whalers have also recruited tacir sunplies of stores. and by their visit afforded their men a Je re: pore from the s:duous pursuit in which they are em- ployed. The benefit of this exemption from the payosnt of light mover will be enjoyed by Amerieau vessels en tirely, as vo other whaling versels cruise ia one latitu le, We, revertheless, hail the adoption of the weasure with great sotisfac'ion, not ‘only f.0m the prospeot af its in- ducing the American whaling flset to make these islands a reguiar place of call, and tius benefit our commerce and people, but also from its being another sto towards that freedom of trade to ich legislation in thase days is steadily aud wisely directed.
