Finally. the Queen congratalates her subjects on the prospgets of peace, and cotton ‘isateady. So vanishes the spectre of war for the pre- sent. He has strutted long enough before us, frightening quiet people, appalling the mer- chants. and delighting the hearts of American wheat growers and British soldiers, The ter- rors of the-one and the hopes of the others have alike disappeared. Money will be allowed to fluctuate according to the known laws which regulate its price in time of peace. Specula- tion will thrive, unchecked by fears of sudden contraction. A fair market, as times go, will continue to offer for manufactures and raw pro- duce. Exporters will cease to ‘calculate the chances of war being declared -before their ves- sels reach port, and some ugly privateer run- ning across their bows in a retired spot on the ocean.

The time of the vessels competing in the Royal Yacht Club race at Cowesyis gi in detail from the English papers, by-which it will be seen that the Sylvie, the American yacht, was defeated by the Julia, a British yacht, six minutes and a few seconds. “Mhe owner of the Sylvie has challenged the wicto” ious vessel for another race. The speech of the Queen of England upon the ®ecasion of the prorogation of Parliament, and the receipt of a telegraphic despatch frem Vienna to the effect that the Sultan’s cabinet in couscil had @ecided upon accepting the joint propositions of the four Powers, had led to the belief that the Eastern question was amicably settled. New: of an insur- Fection in Servia— ubsequently reported from Bel- grade—cansed the affair to again asenme « trondled and more complicated aspect. No of intimation had been received which would enable the public to fuly believe in the pacific issue, but the great weight of popular opinion inclined in that di- section. As the crisis of the difficulty ap- proached, very conflicting rumors were circulated im the European capitais, and some doubt still Femained in regard to the final issue. Judging from ‘the positions of the parties most interested, and the seemingly clear basis vpon which the negotiations vested when the steamer left, we should hope that ‘the next mail would bring news of its adjustment by peace, or the dispersion of al! doubt by a declaration of war. Advices from Singapore te the ist of July state ‘That gold dust was saleable at ear former quotations, bot jess was wanted for China. By the arrival of the ship Gondola, at this port, on Batarday, we are in possession of dates from Buenos Ayres to the third ot July, and ‘rom the journals re- ceived we translate two important documents. One is the communication forwarded vy General Urquiza to the Governors and Captain Generals of the Pro- vinces, apprizing them of the treason of Commodore Coe, in delivering up his squadron to the Buenos Ay- yeans. The otheris a manifesto issued by General José Maria Flores, to the rural inhabitants of the provinces, summoning them to arms to insure and @ wplete the triumph of the citizens of Buenos Ayres, 4 and to expel Urqniza from the country. Our trans | Jation includes other items-of interest. Much of our space is to-day occupied with very full, accurate and life-like reports of the speeches, toasta, &c., of the delegates to the late Whole World's Temperance Convention, at their bran bread end Squash dinner, on Saturday evening; the Sermon @elivered yesterday by Rev. Miss Brown before one of the largest audiences ever congregated in Metro- politan Hall; and last, though not least, the extraor- dimary traneactions of the abolitionists in the same building, during the afternoon and evening. It will be seen by the report of tne last named affair, that the Sabbath was desecrated by the moet rabid out- pourings of fanaticism, and that the indignant au- @ience eventually interfered and refused to allow the proceedings to continue, Read the sketches, enjoy | war would inflict. they may ever remain there, There can be no question that the settlement of the difficulty and the probability of peace continuing ought to be matters of sincere re- joicing here. If the quarrel.hes prodaced no other fruit it has at least taught us to examine the relation in which we stand towards Europe, and led us to see that, independently of politi- cal considerations, our interests are to a very large degree interwoven with hers. People saw plainly enough, when war- seemed inevita- ble, that one of its earliest effects would be to check speculations in Wall street. to contract money here as well as in Londen, and to para- lyze many of the important enterprises which are on foot in this country. Previously, we had been so accustomed to regard ourselves as uncon. cerned spectators of the imbroglio of European politics, that we felt scarcely mere interest in the quarrels of rival States, er the civil dis- orders of foreign nations, than we do in, histo- ries of the past. Barren sympathy with the oppressed, and a half-concealed leaning to- wards foreign democrats, were all shat accounts of European commotions could excite among the respectable portion of the o¢mmunity. The reflections which the events of the lost few weeks have snggested have led we-velieve to a very different frame of mind. It is now toler ably well understood that we shouid necessa- rily participate in the injuries that a Furopean And though we gennot be called upon in such an event to bear a skare of the actual toil and heat of the day, it is quite probable that our indirect interest would be as great as if we were bound to preserve the Enro- pean balance of power. To link ourselves with any other nation so as to render ourselves liable to he called upor to defend Prince This against King That, or to windicate the private honor of one monarch against the aspersions of his neighbors, would obviously be a most foolish proceeding. It is one, happily, against which the wise admonition of Washington has warned us in tige. But we must be careful how we interpret “entangling alliances.”” We must not extend it beyond the cases above mentioned. Practiaally, we are at this moment entangled in aliiences of the closest description with every nation with which we trade. The alliance is not written on paper. and signed by plenipotentiaries, but—what is much more binding—it is daily ratified and approved by almost every indi- vidual in the country. Collectively, as 2 peo- ple. we have the same interest in the solvency and prosperity of England that a merchant has n those of his correcpondent from whom he buys and to whom he opens a credit. What alliance can be closer than this? We repeat it, we have reason to be grateful ‘the passing fun, and then seriously refle:t upon the | to the Czar for having been the means of mischief that would ensue should these modern re- formers, by any possibility, su2cced in their designs. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the appointed from the various trades of this city, in order to take into consideration an increase of wages, and the shortening of their working hours, was held b on Saturday evening, at Convention Hail. Several speeches were made on the occasion, and various were the suggestions made by the assamblage rela- tive to the object for which they had convened. A fal) report of the proceedings may be found in an- other column. Bail t> the amonnt of one hundred thousand dol- Jars has been offered and refused in the case of Dr. Ames, who shot Mr. Hall in Cio :inuati, a few days avo. No hopes are entertained that the latter will recover. The delegates to the National Lodge of Odd Fel- dows will meet in Philadelphia to-day. Among the prominent candidates spoken of for the office of Most Worthy Grand Sire, is ex-Senator DeSan-mre, f South Carolina. Want of room will not permit us to refer partion lerly to many very interesting articles published to- May. Special attention is directed, however, to the epeech of Judge Conkling, the lute American Minis ter, and the reply of Santa Anna on the withdrawal of the former from Mexico; continuation of the Mather Impeachment Trial ; letter from our Havana correspondent ; an article reletive to Lord John Roe soll’s Tyi partite Frosty lett nppneed offi cal Organ ot Washington; particulars of the 2 agages @ the ) cliow Fever in New Osleans, do. spreading this conviction among us. For the bulk of the thinking community no such event legates | was needed; they required no reminder to con- vince them that our destiny was not only to remain at peace with all the world ourselves, mut to use every means in our power to pro- mote peace arhong those from whom we buy and to whom we sell. They knew that we have too great a mission to accomplish to waste time, or allow our friends to waste time, in such follies as war. But there are not a few among our people for whom the lesson will be ealutary. Those are they who, on the appear- ance of every spe ar, throw their hats in the @ix and rejoice at the prospect of old dynas- ties being overthrown and foreign nations being weakened, and would even like to see the glorions eagle of Americs dragged over a blood-stained field. We hope that the calcula tions which theee gentlemen will have made during the late crisie will have ivineed them thaf we have all, 80 much to gain from a European war as they noi, after fancied. Glory and riddled banners ere very fine things no doubt; we ghonld ourselves see, without much compnnetion and any regret. the restoration of political liberty to the people of Enrope. P feh common cenes tellans that the selling of tlour and cotton the baild'ag of steamers, railroads aud telegraphs, | uncultivated land, and the opening of new countries, are far more sensible acts than shoct- ing each other with Paixhan shells or Minie rifles; and if we read the Book of Fate aright we should be doing violence to our natural destiny were we to forsake the former. either by any spontaneous act of our own, or by suf fering, without a protest, our commercial part- ners to deprive us of the blessings offered by involving themselves in war. Mewners or Concress ox THe TRAVEIS.— The steamer Georgia, which leaves this port to- day for Aspinwall, carries among her passen- gers, General Hiram Wallbridge, member of Congress trom the Third district. General Wallbridge is en route to California, whither he goes for the purpose of collecting, from personal observation, a correct idea as to the capabili- ties and requirements of that State. so as to be able to speak and vote knowingly and ad- visedly on subjeéts which may come up in Con- gress in connection with its interests, or to in- troduce such measures as his tour may suggest to him to be of utility and importance to it. We like very much this idea of our represen- tatives travelling during the recess, and mak- ing themselves personally acquainted with cities, districts, States. and nations, of which they had previously had butsuch meagre know- ledge as is to be derived from books—and we are glad to see that the plan is coming into vogue. Mr. Chandler. member of Congress from Philadelphia, and Mr. Douglas. Senator from Il- linois.are both at the present moment travelling in Europe, and Mr. Caleb Lyon, member from the Twenty-third district, has but just returned trom an Oriental tour-on that continent. to say nothing of Mr. Banks’, of Massachusette, visit to the fishing banks. This is all right; and we have every confidence that General Wallbridge, from his habits of observation and his quick discernment, will acquire such an intimate knowledge of California in his short tour through it. as may: afterwards enable him in his place in Congress to legislate for that State in a manner that will redound to its social, com- mercial and political interests. Lorp Jouy Rvssert’s Lerren at WasEine- Ton.—Until some definite appointment is made, we presume thai the Washington Union must be considered pro tempore the government organ at Waskington. Upon this assumption it is no very violent inference to say that the article which we give this day, trom the Wash- ington Union, upon the late letter of Lord John Russell, on the Cuban question, is by and with the advice and consent of the Secretary of State and the President. In this light we think it is entitled to the calm consideration of the British government, and of Lord Jokn in particular. It is but the first of a series of arti- cles which may be expected, assailing the sa- lient points of Lord John’s manifesto; but enough is disclosed of the intended policy of our administration to satisfy His Lordship and the Creoles of Cuba, that if they should rise and dee!are their independence our govern- ment will at least insist upon fair play, if it does not actualy put in a helping hand to the cause of liberty. Unquestionably the Cuban Junta and the Oréer of the Lone Star will find more comfort inthe views of the Union than Lord John Russe!l will discover. We believe-now that the administration design to follow up a positive, petiey at Washington. at Madrid, in London,.in Paris, and in Cube, looking to the earliest poasible acquisition of the island. Read the artiele.trom the Union. Tre New-York Wuic Party—Cait orp tan Doos—The Buffalo Express, (Seward organ) in the course of a long article on the proposed re-union of the, Fillmore and Seward faeiions of this State, says:— If the apologists of the late administration and the defamore of Mr. Seward honestly desire “‘con- ciliatory councils and united energies” in the whig party, let them call in their dogs aud cease their un- tiring sesaults upon true and tried whigs. A eessa- tion of hosiilities is the. first step to peace. Let that; step be taken by the aseailants of Mr. Seward and his friends, and then we can treat for peace ; othertize, re must continue to figh’ forit. Long hetge Mr. Fillmore was called to the Presidential chalf by an afilictive gisze mm of Providence, these assaults were commenced, which have since been continued with so much malignity. It was long belore that eveut that a conspiracy was formed, from which the ‘Jewett and Macomber papers’ J +tmanated, designed-te defeat, by the mos nefarious agencies, the election of ex Coreae Seward to the Un'ted States Senate. He was triufaphantty eect €d; and the act of treason to the whig par'y con ceived by the conspirators at that time, bas never been atoned for, and it wes too base in its sharavter to be forgiven without a proper atonement. “A ceseation of hostilities is the first step to peace.” Right—so it is. “Call in the dogs.” There can be no reunion while Dr. Foote of Buffalo and Rotert Macaire of New York continue their raking fire upon Seward end his friends. Things look squally, in spite of aliwe have done or can do for the whig party. We desire to get them upon their pegs again; but now we expect nothing better about the 5th or 6th of October than another secession movement, by Mr. Granger and the silver grays, at Syracuse. and another loud eal) for another independent anti-Seward Conyen- tion at Utica. Men and brethren. leok to these things in time. “Call in the dogs “Can Seen Trixes Be?*—Are the New York demaeracy united? No! Will they wnite at Syracuse. on the thirteenth?

Mars. Nor- voN—Woxeun’s Ricuts—We published a day or two since, the first day’s proceedings in the suit Lrought by certain London tradesmen against the Hon. Mr. Norton, for the payment of certain debts incurred by his wife. living upon a separate maintenance. The day was cecupied in the testimony and cross-exami- nation of Madam, in behalf of the plaintiffs, and upon the assumption, that her husband was justly liable for the said little bills. We pub- lish to-day the evidence on the other side, in the form of letter from Mr. Norton, which we doubt not will be extremely interesting to all desirous of the issue of this extraordinary bit of litiga- tion. It will be remembered that some seventeen years ago there was a terrible flare-up among the “nobility and gentry” of the British Em- pire, growing out ot a dreadful piece of scan. mag. against the Honorable Lady Caroline Norton. It will be remembered that she was charged with being the poetical favorite of Lord Melbourne, and that upon the proof— the servants of her domestic establishment --she was put upon a separate mainte- nance. In fact, the case of Mrs. Norton has since bad its parallel on this side the water, in the Forrest divorce case, though different somewhat in its legal results. In bot cases, perhaps, there was more of poetry. romance, sentiment. and Platonic confidences involved among the parties accused. than of deliberate criminality; but, unfortunately, the other side, in each case, would not believe it. and hence the trials, the troubles, the tribulations and damages that have followed to all concerned. The reader will have seen from the testimony of the distinguished poetess that she is not only a woman of sentiment but of decided spirit, and not to be trifled with “when the fit is on.’ From the tone, the style. and the in- éffable sweetness of Mrs. Norton’s poems, we had supposed that she was the most timid, the most tender-hearted, and the most delicate creature that an unfeeling tyrant had ever trampled upon. But the report of the court shows that She knows her rights, And knowing dares maintain them. That ehe not only inherits the rare talents of Sheridan. her father, but more than her father’s pluck ; and can’hold her own, even among the lawyers of Westminster, and pay them back | with interest. The conclusion, however, was “lame and impotent.” The tradesmen. it was decided, have no claims in the premises upon the Hon. Mr. Norton, now a police magistrate of Marylebone district, notwithstanding the fact that this and other offices which he holds give him an income of some three or four thousand pounds .a year; and not- withstanding, too, the fact that he has ungraciously usurped the dady’s literary copyrights. Take it all together, we consi- der this case about the ciearest illustration of the wrongs of women in England that has been discovered for many years. We hope and beseech, therefore, that our go-ahead Bloomer champions of woman’s rights in this country, will extend a helping hand. without delay, to the alleviation of the wronge-of their transat- lantic sisters. What right has Mr. Nortow io the copyrights of Mrs. Norton? We call upon Miss Lucy Stone to answer this question, and to see that justice is done. The case of Mrs. Norton ie a case most righteously demanding the enforce- ment of woman’s rights. We recommend, accordingly, that it be taken up for special consideration at the forthcoming Woman’s Rights Convention at the Tabernacle. Give the women of England to understand that the Convention here is with them, and willsee them rigkted, and Jobn Bull will soon open his eyes. Maks the case of Mrs. Norton a casus Lelli, and let the war begin. Now is the time to etrike. Tee GoveRMENT AND OcHAN Mar. Srmavers —Remencumenr axp Rerorm —We call the attention of all concerned or interested, to the advertisement of the Postmaster General, which we publish to-day, inviting proposals for the transyortation of the United States mails by sea, on the several lines now ia aperation. § and on various new lines coastwise. This call is made in pursuance of an act of Congress, and with the view of razceing, in the first place, the present contracts with Collins, George Law & Co., Aspinwall & Co,, and others, or with the view of foreélosing them, according to existing stipulations, so that less costly contracts may be entered into. We doubt not that this ad- vertisement will result in any quantity of pro- posals, geod, bad, and indifferent. for all the lines designated; and fromthe materials of the cabinet and of the coming Congre¢s, we rather apprehend that in these ocean mail contracts there will be a considerable margin cut off, in the way of retrenchment and reform. The lisis are opeued. There need not now be any fur- ther complaints of government pets in connec- tion with our mail steamers. Put in your bids. Competition is the life of trade. Sows or THE Sweerixcs ov New York. Notwithstanding the fact that New York has the reputation of being the filthiestcity on this continent, (of its size) it will be seen from the following official paper, that our city seaven- gers were not altogether idle during the month of August: NUMBER OF DEAD ANIMALS AND AMOUNT OF BUTCH- kk’s OVPAL, AND OTHBR NUISANCE, REMOVED FROM THE CITY DURING THE MONTH OF AUuUSr, 1 Tead Horses : “ “ “ ei “ § 6 Tons Batch 1,303 ied 277 “~ of refuse bones. &c. 62 Pounds diseased mutton. .. 4,400 Five hundred and seventy-seven dead horses for one month, proves that New York is rather a hard place for horse-tlesh. Eight hundved and eighty-three dogs is also a large item ; but it is due to the dog-pound. and fifty cents premium for each prisoner. The whole bill is quite im- posing ; but if the fermenting garbage remain- ing in the streets was added, it would be abso- lutely appalling. What an immense Golgotha is this eity of New York, to be sure! Whata paradise for soap-makers, bone-boilers, and swill milk! Whatahorse market! What a depot for diseased mutton! Yet we have neither the cholera nor the yellow fever. How very strange | Wuen 18 THe Mann TON TO BY Hanp?— We have a tale before us, copied from the Wash- ington Union, which put down the State election in Maine for the first Monday In September, the 5th; the Bangor Mercury is advised, and so informs its that it will positively odme off on the 12th, ond Monday; and the Belfast Journal telis the democracy of the State to prepare for the cow tent, which is to take place on the Lith inst. With Le intiicaeies and changes in the election laws of Maine we sre not familiar; but presuming that the election will be held on one of the four Mondays in the present montb, we will inform our readers that there is to be chosen a Governor, members of the Legislature, and county officers, and that on the next Legislature will devolve the election of a United States Senator, in the place of James W.

The sales of wheat were again large on Saturday, amounting to 50 000 or 60,000 bushels on the spot and to arrive, at a further advance in prices. White Michigan sold at $1 37 « $1 39, and Genesse at $1 40, and for some lots $1 42 was seked Flour also advanced to $5870 96 for common and State brands. At the latter figure about 4,000 barrels were sold, chiefly for export. Of Ohio, 2000 bble fancy brands were sold for export at $6 25 The higher prices towards the close, together with the higher rates demanded for freights, had « tendency to check trensactions. The advance in New York had al- ready begun to be felt in the interior, where pricse had improved, apd would no doubt be the mean: of bringing increased supplies to market. Cotton sold om Friday to the extent of 2,000 bales, and to the same amount on Saturday, making 4,000 bales for the two deys, at steady prices. Just before high ‘charge, at 3 P.

The advertizement issued by the Postmzster General for proposals icr the conveyance of the United States wails by steamships was referred to. It was bolleved that tke clause in the act of Congress authorizing the Secretary of the Navy to purchare the mail stesmers at theiz appraised value was intended to app!y in event of a foreign war.
