Not only 1s the warlike tenor of the advices brought by the Washng ton fully confirmed, but it was currently reported hat hortit es had actually been commenced by Tur- dey. The four great nentral powers were at last ad- vices endeavoring to reestablish negotiations. In- @erd, it was said they had despatched messengers wring upon the Sultan to accept their terms with- ‘Wat modification, and also that they had prohibited a Tesort to arms under any circumstanves; but the soldiers and the people of the Porte were apxious for battle; myriads of recruits were rushing forth from all sections, and ere this it is reasonable to suppose that the contest has been commenced which may decide the ultimate fate of not only Cur- key but the whole of Eurove. Tbe Saltan, accord ing to our advices, could not restrain his coaotrymen should he be so disposed. They had built strong f.rtifications, and were ready and determined—as Mauch £0 as were the forces of the Czar. The miscellaneous news from Earope is quite in- teresting. The leading j urnals of Austria, and of the Germanic States geners/ly, were speculating as to “what would be done by this goverawent with regard to the Koszta sffair. The attention of the people of Prance, as well as of many other countries, was en- @roesed with the high price and great scarcity of fuod, From the North w: learn that one of the Governors bad been put to death by the inhabitants because o” his ability to relieve their distresses.

In shor, the news, in ail ite aspects, shows that the people in nearly every sections of the Old World were ty a most exciting, deplorable and unenviable con- dition. According tothe commercial reports, monetary @@airs had become more stringent, cotton had de- @lined, and breadstuffs had advanced to a still higner Sgure. Via England we have the very important informa- tion from Buenos Ayres that Urquiza sought refuge em board an American vessel on the 13th of Ju'y, and that on the following day his army capitulated te the city which had so long been beseiged. Our column: this merniog contain another instal- ment of political intelligence. We give something @f the city refurm movement—the letters of accept mace of the bard shell candidates for the State O@ixes—a Jester of the Hon. John Wheeler—and a Seracteristic letter from Mr. George Sanders, our pew Consul to London. Mr. Sanders’ document was gent to the nard shell meeting in the Park, and may be considered » defence of the President. Alto- gether, the political record in this morning's paper is quite interesting. A monster ratification mee‘ing was held by the adamaptines in Albany on Thursday evening. Messrs. Clivton, Bowne and Brady were among tne mpeakers; one hundred guns were fired ia honor of the ticket, and innumerable bonfires iinminated the streets. Maine law candidates have been nominated by the whigs in the Second and Third districts of Kings county. The translations which we give today of articles from Madrid papers on the subject of the reception of Mr. Soulé as American min- ister to Spain, is deserving of mach atten- féon. The Heraldo, the Ministerial organ, was at first among the most strenuous advocates of the propriety of the Spanish goverament rejecting that gentleman's credentials, and refusing to acknowledge dim as a representative at Court, It has since, how- ever, considerably modified its tone, and thinks it would be on the whole, wiser to receive Mr. Soule and judge of his character and designs from actual @bservation and experience. The opposition journal, das Novedades, is still bitterly opposed to his recep- tion at all. However, it has been decided in Cabinet qeeting, that he will be permitted to present his cre- @entials, and that the government will wait to gacertain whetber his speech to the Queen will con tain an expression or phrase which may posibly bear a construction disrespectful to the Spanish pation. The articles of which we give a translation tare deeply interesting. By telegraph we have received some very disa @reeable intelligence from Newfoundland. It ia re ported that, during a severe gale which occurred ‘about the 15th ult.,a large number of fishing ves- gels, together with their crews, were wrecked on the morth side of the island. The cateh of fish had been #0 poor, that many vessels would not be able to pay expenses, in addition to which the potate crop fs provounced an almost utter failure. Fears being entertained of a famine among the poorer classes, the government is urged to call an early session of the Legislature, to meet the contingency. As s.0n fas the gale abated, numerous fishing smacks, which hed been driven into the different ports, nearly * empty, would again go out for the purpose of endea- ‘woring to retrieve their ill Inck ; bat, as the catoh- fing season was about over, it was doubtful whether they would be able to accomplish their object. ‘We learn that on the 19th alt., abont five o'clock fa the morning, quite a smart shock of an earth quake was experienced at St. Tiomas. We give, in another column, a full report of the St. Thomas market to the latest date.

It wae presided over by Mr. Winthrop, and from the remarks ef that gentleman we gather the only distinctive points of whig tactics so fur as Massachusetts is coneerned, te be urged upon the country. The Pacific Railroad is adopted. and the foreign po- jicy of President Pierce is indistinctly opposed. The Maine law was given an outside berth, ‘and we do not find that the old party issues have been more hospitably entertained. Ia relation to the foreign administration of the govern- ment the views enunciated by Mr. Cushiog are positively condemned though this dees not ne- cersarily draw in question the positions as- sumed by Mr. Everett, whose official and uo- official letters touching the island of Cuba, have elicited almost universal praise, bat which seem not to have engaged the attention of the Fitchburg Convention. The Whig Con- vention to come off at Syracuse on the 5th proximo ie the next step in the drama, which will be looked to with great interest, as un- folding more authoritatively the distinctive principles of that party. It was supposed that Masrachusetts, on the bases of Mr. Everett’s recent letters, and in view of the practical set- tlement of ali the outstanding accounts ot parties in the line of their former trade, to say nothing of the judgment of the country on the compromise measures of 1850. and the agency of Mr Webster in securing their passage, would at its Fitchburg Convention, unfold a new pro- gramme. The time and the place were auspi- cious. Beall this as it may, the occasion is suggestive of some reflections upon the past career of the whig party—upon its mea, its measures, its follies, its triumphs, and its de- feats. In the essential policy of Massachusetts is to be found the seed of its fall; so now it would not have been wonderful if. Phoenix-like, it should there rise from its ashes, and, like Paul before his accusers. speak for itseif. Early in the administration of John Quincy Adams the whigs asa party were organized That the new order was largely made up of the old federal organization is wore than apparent The spirit aud policy of the lider Adams and Mr. Hamilton pervaded it. It was based on the principles and the early opinions of many of the promizent men of the Revolution. The current belief, that it was hostile to the rights of the maeees, is wholly incorrect—it doubted only whether the extension of suffrage would not disturb the political fabric, without benefit- ing the people. This was one of the prominent convictions of the federal party; and it was, toa greater or less extent, carried into the new or- ganization. under the acknowledged leadership of Mr. Clay. Mr Clay was a Western man, and imbued with the spirit and daring of that class of politicians. It was, then, one of those vicis- situces in the eddying currents of political life, not easily explained, which brought him into connection with federal opinions, and with the men and peculiar policy of Massachusetts. Their union, however, is matter of history. It was a compromise in which the indomitable spirit of Mr.Clay was to exercise personal control, while the policy of Massachusetts in reference to all the great economical questions of the day was endorsed and incorporated into the articles of faith of the coalition. It was, in truth so to speak. the union of antagonisms—of repellants It was the policy of Hamilton engrafted into the old Jeffersonian trunk —the Eutopian spirit of commercial restrictions and class legislatior in- fused into s man whose career was the embodi- ment of freedom, and whose speech had done more to build up the altars of democracy, and to extend avd adorn its faith. than any other living statesman. It was Massachusetts joined to Kentueky in the bonds of political wedlock ! Maseachusetts—cold, calculating, abounding in industry and wealth, with habits and opinions as fixed as her gravite hills—united to the im- petuous, generous, bold, and free spirit of Ken- tucky. What wonder is it that from such a union came an offspring variant in character and deeds ?!—tbhat sueha house is divided against iteelf?--that a Seward should rise up in the North, with a progeny of mottled, hybrid dis- turbers’—that @ Greeley should bring into the family a fatal brood of socialists, women without sex and without shame, higher law, Maine law. and mob law ’—thata Weed should parade before the household the ghastly forms of the dead to compass political ends’ What wonder that such a union has ended in discord, taction, and ruin? But for the time being there was a strong show of plausibility in the economics of the new faith. The industrial interests of the coun- try had not been fully orgenized. The distri- bution of labor was imperfect. Every branch rested tpon experinient. The doctrines of pro- tection had been early taught by Hamilton, and, through his agency, adopted as the settled policy of the government. The examples of other nations might be quoted to sustain our own. As wealth accumulated, its influence, al- ways great, was brought to bear upon the same point. An auxiliary to this policy, execeding- ly plausible, and addressed to the interests of a jarge portion of the country, was found in the cotemporaneous announcement of the American system, by which it was propose to draw from the treasury the means for constructing an ela- borate system of internal improvements, thus creating a nectesity for levying high duties in the way of protection. The specific principle of the old tariff was another means of moulding the public treasury to individual interests. The Bank of the United States, which Hamilton himself denominated 1 “political ma- chine,” was assigned its office in con- trolling legislation to meet the reqnire- ments of the new party. It was a formidable array of strength, in the organization of which the great interests of manufactures and com- merce were consulted and rewarded. The former was made the special object of legisla- tive protection, while the latter, though ac- tually restricted and cramped by such policy, was ©o far the recipient of bank favors and de- pendant upon its discounts, as readily and zealously to yield its powerful influence to sustain the system. The design was to unite the two most prominent branches of industry—thove two which embraced by far the most powerfal social and monetary influenees—with the ad- ministration of the country, avd by thei 1 to nphold and perpetuate the power of the new party The condition of the country, in the ab- sence of railroads, telegraphs, and with a li- mitted press, greatly favored this design, by giving extraerdinary control to the bank io every department of trade. and by enlisting its active interference together with aif its de- pendants, in the election contests of the day. ‘This power, united to that of the manufacturers who were the odjects of special favor and pro- tection, it was supposed was amply sufficient to insure political contro) at Washington. Tt was a strong will and a powerful combina- tion that such a net work of interest could not subdue. But precisely such a will and such o combination was found in the opposing party, which allied itself to the great family of agri- culture—a branch of labor sought at once to be faxed and controlled by the others named though in truth it sustained both. Early in the bistory of the new organization the straggle came on. The brilliant and powerful Clay and his friends were over- thrown. His individual strength. unde- niably great, could not sustain the cause of his associates. No human power could do it. It was baeed upon essential ineqnality. It taxcd one class of industry to protect another It placed great interests in dependence upon the government. and thus paralyzed the arm of individual enterprise. It tettered and crippled commerce, and thus limited and cut off the markets of agriculture and taxed its produc- tions. It rendered inevitable commercial vi- cissitudes. by connecting the great monetary power of the States with national politics. It violated all rules of political economy, by seek- ing to contro} the distribution of labor. It was a party of policy. of calculation and of personal interests, and not of principles, It was not sustained, and never will be, on the basis of its ancient creed. But our object is not to trace out the record. It is to draw a lesson from the past to lay b2- fore the whige of the Union at this critical juncture. It is never too late to eorrect an error. The whig party has long enough kicked against the pricks. —it has long enough strug- gled to maintain the crushing weight of taise principles and unequal laws. Its masses are honest. There is no chance of a restoration of the Bourbons of their line. The cohesive power that has bound the two parties together respectively is gone. The late Presidential election has testified that a spirit higher than the old organizations exists in the country— devotion to the Union, to the constitution. and the protection of al) the interests alike, to that compact. This spirit was roused into fearful energy in that election; and it exists now in the public mind of the country in al) its freshness, its justice. and its might. Itis the spontaneous outburst of public sentiment—an expression of patriotiem and disinterested love of eoun- try which rejects in disdain all section- alism. recognizing no law higher than the constitution, no destiny higher than it assures, Let the whigs remember that there is a tide in the affairs of men. which when taken at its ebb, leads on to fortune. They have the material of success. The power is once more in their own hands if they will use it. Their opponents are no longer bound to their party. The national democracy—the constitutional party—that which elected Gen Pierce—in fact, embracing two-thirds of the voters of the Union—is rising up in judgment against both the old orders, It is the people defending their government against the assaults of the Van Burens, Sewards, Garrisons, and Greeleys of the day. It is patriotism speaking in its own defence, and perpetuating the Union on the basis of equality. It is the spirit of America rebuking and silencing the cast off harlots of its household. and drawing closer to its embrace the virtuous and the good of all faiths and creeds. Tue Koszta Case—Mn Hvtsemann’s Pro- TEsT.—According to promise, we lay before our renders this morning the protest of Chevalier Hulsemann, the truly American reply to which. by Secretary Marcy, we published yesterday: There is a special point of interest in this Aus- trian letter which we reproduce here—for the sake of o passing suggestion or so—to wit:— The Imperial government entertains too hich an opinion of the sense (eae and ofthe iutegrity of the government of the United States to doubt for a single instant its anxiety to dixavow the conduct of ite agents, under the amstances above men ticned, and that it will hasten to call them to a se vere account, and tender to Austria a satisfaction proportionate to the magnitude of the outrage. We are apprehensive, in view of this demand, that the reply of our government will not be deemed satisfactory by the Imperial govern- ment of Austria. We should not. therefore, be eurprised if the administration were shortly to be waited upon by Mr. Hulsemann with his parting compliments. And perhaps Russia may follow suit. The question then recurs, what follows? We know not. The country will upbold our government as with the voice of one man whatever may be the consequences of maintaining the right. Weare quite con- tent, therefore. to wait the drift of events; and we rejoice that our authorities at Washington have at last thought fit to indicate to Europe in terms not to be misunderstood, that the United States are among the independent powers of the earth. It is good. Tue CryetaL PaLtack—Twewty-rive Cext Day.—The admission to the Crystal Palace to- day is reduced to twenty-five cents—the fixed price for Saturday till otherwise ordered Citizens and strangers are thus offered a favor- able occasion for taking their families to this exhibition of some of the world’s most beautiful specimens of genius, skill, taste, science and perrevering labor. We think this Saturday re- duction a good one, not only because of the fair opportunity thus afforded to thousands of our working people, mej, women and children, to go into this instructive museum of the world’s industry, but good as a stroke of policy on the part of the managers. We hope they will ex- perience this advantage largely. The Palace may now be said to he complete in the arrange- ment of ita articles, including the machine ar- cade and the picture gallery. But in less than two months the whole establishment will have to be closed, unless some extraordinary process is devised in the meantime for warming it. The public. therefore, who have not yet visited, but etill intend to visit, this Crystel Palace, will do well to remember this. and, also, that on Saturdays the admission is redaced to twenty- five cents.

Bap Beomninc.—The whigs commenced their operations the other evening for the fall cam- psign at the Broadway House by attacking the President and his cabinet with something ot their old rancorous epirit of opposition. Thisis a bad beginning. Thit sort of business should be left for settlement between the hard shells and soft shells. Itis a family affair, and out- siders ought not to intermeddie in it. Let the whigs first unite among themselves, it they can; but their convention of the 5th of October at Syracuse will not amount to much if their po- licy is limited to breaking down the adminis- tration at Washington.
