Single copies, in wrappers, ‘stxpenes, The News, At one o'clock yesterday afternoon we received a telegraphic despatch from AiLany of these two com- prehensive words : “Mather acquitted.” Thus, then, terminates the attempt to make this man the scepe Boat of the whole Canal Board. The hards kave made ‘‘a hit—a palpable t ‘in h's renomination. He is endorsed by the court summoned for his im: peachment. His renomination before his acqutttal, and his acquittal after his renomination, will react Bpon each other to his advantage in this canvass. He goes before the people as a man released from his persecutors with a judgment against them. The issue between the hards and the sofis is now dis- tinctly and clearly defined. “Mather acquitted.” Immegiately upon the announcement of the new: the big guns were brought ont by the hards at Al- bany, Rochester, sud elsewhere.

A telegraphic despatch states that a new paper ig to be started immediately in Albany, for the vurpose of advocating the soft shell nominati»ns, andupport- ing the national and State administrations. What's the matter with the Atlas?—is it dissatisfied with the roft platform ’ When is Attorney General Cashing to hear the Yast of that famous afier dinner speech delivered by him in Newark? It bas been published and re- published, and commented on by journals on both continents, and among them al! very many hard things have been said against Mr. Cushing. But some of the severest handling which that celobrated allocution has met with it has received from the special organ of General Santa Auna, E/ Universal of Mexico. That journal treats it both jecosely and seriously, and in both moods with extreme bitter- ness. To enable the American public and the ad- ministration to know what the Mexican idea of it is, we give this morping a correct translation of the ar. ticle in question. We also publish the translation of a portion of an article recently published in one of the Madrid papere, in which the iustitations and government of this country are held up in flattering contrast to the despotisms of the Old World. Bos articles are deserving of attention. Full particulars are elsewhere given of the colli- * sion on the Hudson River Railroad, near Ponghkeep- aie, yetterday afternoon, by which two persons were Killed and a number of others serionsly injured. To add to the already voluminous chapter of railroad calamities, we learn that a similar misfortune hao- pened on the New York Central Railway yester- day morning. The express train bound for the West, while stopping at the Oneida depot, was run into by a freight train, which is said to have beea out of time. Mr. Thatcher, of Ohio, was instantly killed ; two men bad beth their thighs broken, ‘and many other passengers Were shockingly vraised, some of them so bedly that it is doabtfal whether they can survive. These are the fruits of the negli- gence of thore members of the late Legislature whose inexcusable procrastination was the cause of defeat ing the anti-railroad accident bill. Hon. James J. McKay, of North Carolina, was taken ill in the cars, last Tharsday, near Wilming ton, and died in a few hours. He wasa member of Congress ‘or sixteen years, and was chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means at the time of the passage of the tariff act in 1846. News from the city of Mexico to the 4th inst tends to confirm the impression that the arbitrary proceedings of Santa Anna wil) lead to another revo- lution at no distant day. It is reported that he causes.every peron against whom suspicion is en- tertained to be executed without warning. The mails of the Nisgara reached this city from Boston last evening. The most interesting points of the news had been transmitted previously by telegraph, and were published in our paper. We give to-dny the latest continental intel igeace which bad been received in London, with a selection from the leadiny articles of the journals of that city upon the Easiern difficulty and the m netary affairs of the eourtry. Some further remarks upon the ap arance of the Russian fleet in the Chinese waters are a)so published. The last European news hid no perseptible effect on the New Orieans cotton market.

Organte Diseases and Remedies ro An olé guide-book, with its title page torn out and a new one inserted. is not a bad type ot the present system of organism in this ceun- try. Popular sesttiment twenty years ago, when ‘there were less readers than ‘there are papers pow; when politics, like counterfeiting, wasdone up by “stealth and at midnight;” when the Albany regency and the Richmond junta appointed funerals for refractory mem- vers, and had their subjects ready; when con- ventions made laws, and Congress approved them; when “ the condition of the press was improved” and organ-ized by arrangements at Washington; when Morgans—good enough, of course—were made for elections; when to ‘tthe victor was surrendered the spoils of the van- quished;”’ when politics, indeed ,-wasa machine composed, as Chillingworth says of the Churcb. ofan innumerable number of parts, of which it was strangely unlikely thet any would get out of order; then orginism was a necessary and useful element of power—a ready and au- thoritative exponent of the popular mind, jand withal an integral portion of the general and State governments. The old guide-book point- ed out packet and coach routes, steamboat, and here and there, for 9 wonder, a railroad line. It was very well in its day—telegraphs and lightning expresses, and newspapers with hundreds of thousands of readers, politicians Swarming over the whole country, and all as. wary as Machiavel. and as crafty and subtle as Van Buren, were not then. ‘ Men have changed as well as moons. If auy- thing is exhibited in thie material, practical age of ours, it is the individuality of society. Each man speaks for himself, endorses or con- demns as fearlessly as if his decision was finul and his power complete. The whole tendency ot the times is towards the diffusion of power— the exercise by individusls of that authority which before had been denied to them and en- trusted to parties and governments. Mencount little now upon what Congress can do, and much upen the conquests of private enterpri The sphere of the former is “growing small by degrees and beautifully less” day by day, while that of the latter is spreading over. not only the entire surface of the Union, but ex- tending its fruitful iabors into every vineyard of civilization on the globe. At least, then, the American people have an individual opinion as well as a national charac- ter. Each man is his own organ; he thinks for himself, speaks for himself. endorses or con- demns according to his sovereign will and pleasure. Testimony is alike opentoall. There are no longer any secrets, The veil that cover- ed political movements has been torn off’—their dominos have been removed; and master and servant, Jew and Gentile, Pagan and Christian. may see and judge for himself. The old guide- book tells only of old and forgotten things; and those who travel now have been over the adventitious directions. Besides. all “runners” now-a-days are in bad eredit. Men have been cheated by them, mis- directed and annoyed, and want none of their aid or advice. Witnesses are discredited by interest; lawyers have a world of latitude by reason of their special employment ; the warn- ing voice of the preacher is even called profes- sional, and often falls upon a Tistless and indif- ferent anditory. It ig true men sometimes laugh, as in duty bound, but not often. All this we regard as quite applicable to the politics and plans of the day. The telegraph continues to inforin us that the administration take a great interest in the establishment in this city of a full-toned, mellifuous organ, whose notes are expected to penetrate every nook and corner of this great State, and to clarm into fraternal harmony the two political armies whose war bugles have just sounded on the memorable field of Syracuse. Gentlemen, it can’t be done. The popular ear is not tuned to that kind of music. Wind instruments have gone out of favor ; and, besides, your organist has been detected already in playing too many old airs to suit the cultivated taste of a New York auditory. We tell you that the thing won't work. You can’t keep your instrument in tune in the midst ‘of so many jarring ele- ments. ot In this day and generation that which i done well is applauded, and that which is done badly is condemned.

The Two Crystal Palaces of New York. Among the many curiosities and sights which are to be seen in New York. in this prolific age of wonders, the Crystal Palace occupies the zaost prominent position. A structure of glass of such gigantic dimensions is indeed a won- der, and when it was at first proposed by Pax- ton might well astonish the world with its novelty. Such light and airy creations were read of only in tales of Eastern enchantment, and were classed with the fabled productions of Aladdin’s magic lamp. But when the substan- tial reality reare: crystal walls above the earth people believed, but still wondered as they gazed. The opening of the first structure of the kind in London was the inauguration of a new era in the history of the world; and, once its practicability and success proved, almost every country desired to have a Crystal Palace of its own. in which to exhibit speci- mens of the industry of all nations. Our Crys. tal Palace, though it may not be equal to the expectations that were formed of it, and is not all that we would have desired, is yet, without question, one of the most beautiful sights that could be presented to the gaze of a wonder-lovy- ing people. With much that is commonplace. it also contains a great deal that is well worth seeing, and that would repay a visiter amply for his time and treuble in coming a distance of even a thousand miles. Here are gathered some of the finest specimens of art—from Italy tables of mosaic and works in marble; from France samples of porcelain from the great manufactories of Sevres, and those exquisite contributions from the imperial collection of Gobelins; from England works in the precious metals, unequalled in beauty of design and workmanship by anything of the kind in the whole exhibition; from Ireland samples of those linens for the manufacture of which she now holds the first rank; and from our own country inventions without number, models of labor- saving machinery for agricultural and manu- facturing purposes. It- would be an endless task to enumerate all that is collected within this magnificent structure; we have already described what was most deserving of notice therein, and have spoken of each article as its merits warranted. But the New York Crystal Palace is not the only grand exhibition of industry which our city contains. There is another, which is visit- ed daily by over fitty thousand persons, and which covers. greater area of ground than even the colossal structure which formerly stood in Hyde Park. It is lighted by thou- sands of thousands of gaslights at night, and presents a more extensive if not a more varied collection of the products of industry than the palace at Reservoir square. Yet thousands pass by this great exhibition every day with- out bestowing a thought ora glance on the rare specimens of art and industry which it contains. It is open to our citizens and strang- ers without let or hindrance, and there is ‘no surly doorkeeper guarding the entrance with suspicious looks, for it is free to all those who choose to visit it. No day or season ticket is required for passport; you may enter it when you like, and leave it, as Mrs. Gamp would say, when you feel “so disposed.” This second Crystal Palace of which New York boasts is Broadway—and Broadway, according to the renowned Jefferson Bricks, “whips the uni- verse.” It is one vast show, extending from Union place to the Battery, and contains mil- lions of dollars worth of property. In the show windows, which may not inaptly be compared to the showcases at the industrial exhibition, are displayed the rarest articles of jewelry and works in the precious metals—whatever contributes to luxury, refined taste, and those more substantial productions which are required to supply the demands and necessities of life. may be seen without cost or charge. There too, are daguerreotypes and paintings enough to fill a large picture gallery—Sevres porcelain, statuary, and thousands of things for a glance at which you have to pay at the Crystal Pa- lace. Wehave said that thousands of persons pass these by heedlessly; but this is not the case with country visiters, who regard the metropolis itself as one vast show-shop, and who wander through our principal thoroughfare with eyes and mouths wide open with wonder. To these Broadway—New York’s second great Crystal Palace—is full of attrac- tions, suflicient to furnish them with sights for a week at least. Why, after all, what is the length of the aisles and devious windings of the exhibition at Forticth strect compared with five or six miles of one con- tinued show? Let our country friends, if they do entertain any misgivings as to the charac- ter of the former, have no hesitation in coming to New York, for they will find enough in Broadway torepay them for their time and trouble. Besides, is it not the great resort, the favorite promenade of the beauty and fashion of our city? And we defy any similar thorough- fare in this country or anywhere else to turn out such lovely women. All classes mingle there on a perfect equality—the poor, bat inde- pendent and honest meehanic, in passing through the crowd of pedestrians who are to be found there at all hours of the day, jostles the arm of the millionaire; and the modest and unpretending work girl, clad in homely garb, rustles the silk of the fine lady as she hurries to her daily labor. There are, we have said, millions of dollars worth of property exhibited in the shop windows of Broadway; but who will compute the amount that is expended on the embellishment of those windows, some of which cost over three thousand dollars? And who. in view of the great improvements which have taken place within the past three or four years. can predict what Broadway will be in four or five years hence? When the Crystal Palace shall have disappeared. like some vision of drea_-land, this exhibition will still remain, and each encceeding year be more popular and populons than befores Broadway is New York’s permanent Crystal Palace, and all who like May visit it gratuiwously. Farore or tse Matuer Iupeacnment Case —The political drama which has been for weeks past in course of performance at Albany, and in which the Hon. J. C. Mather, Canal Commis- sioner, played the princ!pal ré/e, has at length reached its dénoument. The last act is cou- cduded—the cnrtain has fallen amid hisses trom the soft shells and plaudits from the hards, and the hero of the plot, all his persecutors foiled and defeated, receives the congratulations of his friends and partisans. John C. Mather has been acquitted by the High Court of Impeach- ment of all the charges for which he was ar- reigned. His triumph follows close upon that other satisfactory tribute paid him the other day by his friends in Syracuse in giving him again the nomination for Canal Commissioner. The intelligence of this termination to the impeach- ment case was greeted in Albany by the dis- charge of a hundred guns yesterday morning, and in this city by a similar salute fired from the Park last evening. Mr. Mather is gratified, his party is gratified, lovers of fair play are gratified; and, if we except the discomfited soft shells, the gratification is general. Tux Porr’s Nuxcto anp Papre Gavazzi.— We publish to-day, from the Milwaukie (Wis- consin) Sentinel. a stinging reply to the late attacks, in various Western newspapers, upon Monsignor Bedini,the Pope’s Nuncio, based upon a late published lecture of Father Gavazzi. We gave this lecture a place in our columns, and ourreaders will remember that Gavazzi therein charges the inhuman execution of one Ugo Bassi, an Italian republican, upon Bedini. In this reply in defence of Bedini, which we pub- lish to-day, such a catalogue of diabolical atro- cities is arrayed against Garibaldi, Gavazzi, and the Roman republicans of 1848-49, as staggers belief, notwithstanding the respectable cotemporaneous evidence adduced in proof. Can it be that the republicans of Rome were guilty of such atrocious barbarities as are here arrayed against them? We know not, but having given a hearing to Gavazzi’s indict- ment we admit the defence of the other side into our columns. We leave the controversy to the parties themselves. A Beavirevt, Tung. —We suggested through the columns+of the Heratp the other day, in some passing remarks upon Jullien’s concerts, the appropriateness of a general rising of the audience onthe striking up of “ Hail Columbia.” On Thursday evening the numerous, intelli- gent, and patriotic auditory at Jullien’s, re- sponded to this suggestion by rising en masse when “Hail Columbia” was introduced, and we put the example upon record as worthy of emulation far and near. It was a thrilling in- cident—a beautiful thing. It reminded us of that bit of proverbial philosophy of old King Solomon, that “ Words fitly spoken are like apples of gold in pictures of silver.’ This tri- bute at Jullien’s was. in fact, a unanimous reso- lution in favor of the Union, including the con- stitution and the laws of the land ; or, if there were a few scattering “squatters” on account of the higher law, woman’s rights, atheism, and green squashes, they were invisible in the general mass. Let them squat. Peace wita Mexrco.—Our latest accounts from Mexico represent Santa Anna asin the greatest straits for the want of money. We have some thirty millions surplus in the trea- sury, and it is still accumulating. We want another strip of wild land. Santa Anna wants cash, A fair exchange is no robbery. There is a fair prospect, therefore, of peace with Mexico upon the basis of “muntfest destiny.” So mote it be. ‘Talk on Change, Yesterday was another slack day in flour, the Niagara’s letters being still due, Common State brands closed at $6 25 £$6 31. Wheat was active without material change in quotations. Corn wae easier. The sales of cotton were small, ard the marks: unsettled, Rice continued firm, with sales of 1,000 bags East India on private terms Carolina sold at $4 25 a $4 50. A A gentleman engaged in the cotton trade stated that fre- quent complaints had been made in New Orleans and othar cities regarding the want of greater uniformity in cotton quotations in New York. This arose from the fact tuat quotations were given by each broker for himself without consultation with others inthe same business, Thus one merchant in New O,leans might receive from hie New York broker the quo.ation of 103. for middling cotton, Another might haye it quoted to him at 101<c.; and a third at 103¢e @ 10%c, This irregularity, it was concidered, operated against the claims of this mariet upon the shippers of the article from the South It was proposed and strongly urged that there shonlé be established in New York a board of cot:on brokers, from whore authority regular reports of sales aud prices thould emanate, There official declarations would impert greater uniformity to the movement: in tha trade, inspire confidence at distant places, and ia all probability augment the consignments. A merchant complained of the want of greater ferry accommodations between the upper parts of the civy and Long Ieland on our side, and the Jersey shore on the other. Green Point was now as important a place as Williamsburg was a few years since, and the inter course between it and the city required greater facilites for intercourre than existed. Among other city improvements, it was nuggested ihat one perbaps more needed than any other, was a more extensive acd convenient building for the Washington Market. As it stood at present, it was nothiag but a confused jumble of overloaded stalls, amidst which peo- ple were compelled to be jammed while endeavoring to make their purchaces. Its outer purlieus were Qirty and crowded in # most repulsive and disagreeable manner. Strike of the Third Avenue Railway Drivers— Collision, etc, The cilizens residing om the line of the Third Avenue Railway were much inconvenienced yesterday by a strike of all the drivers employed on that line, The state of the case ir ae follows:—It sppeare that there are thirty. one cars rupping on this railway; each car has had two drivers, makizg ten trips per day. The cars ran from four o’clock in the morning until two o’clock the next morning. The drivers have heretofore been paid ten dol- Jars per week, and when they worked only a pert of the week they have been paid at the rate of one dollar and twenty-five cents per day. The cars run on Sundays, The directors of the railway la‘aly removed some of ths switehmen, and otherwise imsreared the labor of the drivers They then made a rul@that only three drivers should be allowed to every two ears. For these reasons the drivers, alxty-two in number, ceased work yesterday morning, until the old régime nhould be re-tored, and they to receive one dollar end fifty cents per day for every dey they worked.
