Had Mr. Webster or Mr. Everett filled that office a&the time, steps would robably have been taken at once upon Mr. Rives’ information; as it was, Marcy was busy dividing the spoils, and did not care to have his attention diverte! by mere questions of foreign policy. He po: h-poohed Mr, Rives’ tale—said that if England and France sent fleets to Cuba, we sLould send one there likewise; and so far | as we know, never thought of the matter sinee. | Meanwhile, the intimate communication into | which their concordance of views on American questions had brought the English and French governments began to extend itself. The Turk- | ish question arose, and England was offered the | choice of an alliance with Russia or with France. | Her understanding with the latter on Ameri ; questions naturally led her to prefer Louis Na leon to Nicholas inthe Eastern question as well. 1 ach alliance grow out of the etween the two countries wi | respect co ('nba; was in reality posterior in | point of time lo that event, and was to acer- tain extent caused by it. These facts are abun- dantly proved by a-mere reference to dates. dat fleets to carry ont their plans; but there is a power superior to theirs, which ina moment may | convert into waste paper the most binding compacts, upset the wisest calculations, and neu- tralize and defeat the most skilful military combinations, It is this clement whieh, when despotic governments think they have fortified } themselves against the chances of the future, | | by the unserupulous arts of diplomacy and the artificial support derived from political and family alliances, periodically sweeps away all these political safeguards, and vindieates at once the justice of God and the natural rights of man. But for its agency the wrongs and sufferings of the masses would remain forever unredressed. Its potent voice will be heard above all the din and uproar of the approach- ing conflict, and by its influence will its cha ter and issue be ultimately determined. This elcment is the revolutionary principle. Itis worthy of note with what reserve the English and French journals approach this topic. It is surrounded with so much delicacy and difficulty that they are afraid to give it present importance by discussing it premature- ly. And yet they will have to look it steadily race | able precaution to insure the safety of their cor- | ' utter helplessness, the deplorable impotency, ters which were missing. We have called the attention of our business men to this careless practice on former o¢ca- | sions, and we think they owe it to themselves, the young clerks in their employ, and to the Post Office Department, to use every reason- respondence passing through the post offices. Tue ATE AND THE GADs Treaty.—The the pitiful distress of the administration, con- cerning the abortion of the Gadsden treaty, is | no excuse for the Senate in assuming the fune- tions of negotiating a new treaty. They should | reject or ratify the Gadsden concern, and leave the business of framing a new treaty to Al- | monte, Marcy, or the kitchen cabinet. Gen. Gadsden, we presume, is sick of the business by this time; but Mr. Ward may still be useful. If the Cabinet, however, cannot patch up a new treaty, the Senate might appoint a select com- mittee to help them; but they have, as the Senate, no right to usurp the functions of Marey, and negotiate a new treaty, unless Gen. Al- monte is admitted to their secret sessions upon | precinets of the City Hall; but whether it arose from their being achemed to be laughed at for their foolish- ishness, or whether they, along with their seconds, were absent at Hoboken engaged in peppering one another, yet remoirs te beascertained. The general opinion among the most intimate of the valiant gen(lemen’s friends was that the whole proceeding was got up only as a ruse to ren- der the parties interested conspicuous through the columns of the newspapers throughout the city, no doubé thinking that some would look upon itin a Cutting and Breckenridge light, and that, consequently, they would be immortalized in the eyes of the whole community at least. Many were the jokes cracked at the expense of | Meesrs. Wild and Seely; but the whole matter being so ludicrous, it would be folly on our part to gratify the gentlemen by noticing the aifair at further length. Since writing the above we have heard a rumor which | we give for what it is worth.

The Senate again devoted con- siderable time to the Gadsden treaty yesterday, but nevertheless made very little headway. So many being no calls for export, common brands of State flour declined 12) cents per barrel yesterday. The market closed at $687 for common and $7 124 for fax Other articles “were held.at about the same prices as previously reported, but dull. It is said that some corn shipped to Liverpool hos made a loss of 20 cents per bushel. Mr. Commissioner Morton decided yesterday the case of the party charged with uttering forged pa- per in Canada and claimed under the extradition treaty. The Commissioner sets forth his views of the evidence and grants the certificate applied for. The defendant is, therefore, remanded for the ne- cessary paper of extradition of the President of the years, to.congratulate Great Britain, on being of one mind with France on every question, from the recent one which had arisen in refer- ence to Surkey, to the old one which had been called iurto existence by the dangers of Cuba. Events, however, modify the soundest plans. When the war grew out of the Turkish quar- rel, and it became of vital importance to Great Britain thet the United States should suppress privatcering, and remain neutral if they could not side with the Western Powers, the whole aspect of the understanding of 1852 was tothe surface by accident, but have not had the qualities necessary to keep them afloat in public estimation. They are, besides, the incarnation of socialism, which is as different from the principles of true republicanism as base metal is from sterling coin—as anarchy is from order. They have lost the confidence and esteem even of their own section of the revolutionary party, and it is questionable whether even under the most favorable circumstances that might pro- sent themselves, they would now be able to originate a movement amongst any considera- ble portion of their countrymen. No, the ac- some sort of a treaty; and they rely upon the Senate. And the people have their eye upon the Senate. Let not that be forgotten. New ARRANGEMENT OF THE PoweERs oF THE Government.—The Washington Union, in a melancholy article discussing the sad history of the Gadsden treaty, and its gloomy prospects, furnishes some original views of the peculiar position of theadministration. It appears that there are now two great powers in the country overshadowing all others—two hostile adminis- trations, in fact, as deadly opposed te each other mittee. This paper was read, stating the ends for which the pro- posed society was about being organized, and was headed “Jrishmeh Universal, Civil and Military Republican Union’? Guleagthy document, stating that the abject of the so- , ciety was to bring about a union of all Trishmen opposed to religious feuds, for the purpose of forming a frater- nal association, eompased of men of all erecds, whose only thoughts were those of liberating their country from the hands of its oppressor—-England. It was'also stated thet funds were contemplated to be raised for the pur- pose of aiding those who, within the next two years, should engage in any well-planned struggle for lbsrty in Ireland: and if no such movement took place in Ireland during tbat period, then the chief ends of the society and their funds woula be tosend emigrants who arrived on. our shores in a destitute condition to a comfortable homo in the West, where they might become respected and useful members of society. , Fae ei sess } in- : in, rkey ii ini The constitution being rather a long doe alterations appear to have been made in this pre- | United States.

In their great anxiety for the firmation of this abomination, the administration are now endeavoring to show that the Senate has no right to amend a treaty; but in this they are mot borne out by the precedents of former Presi- dente. Pe informetion respecting the various pro- positions‘made to Mexico for the abrogation of the Guadalupe treaty is quite interesting. Secretary Dobbin, we are informed, has decided ‘that the six new steam frigates must be built in the government yards, but will contract for the super- intendence of their construction, if possible, with some of our experienced ship builders. Mr. Don Pratt, a Cincinnati lawyer, has been ap- pointed Secretary to the French legation. No public business of general interest was trans- acted in the United States Senate yesterday. A bill establishing a new land district in Michigan was passed, and a resolution of inquiry respecting the expediency of granting land for a railroad from Iron Bay, Michigan, to Little Bay de Lequette, Was adopted. Various petitions and other unimpor- tant matters having been disposed of, the body at twelve o'clock, went into executive session, and did not rive till four. The House of Representatives ordered the print- ing of twenty thousand additional copies of Lieuts. Herndon and Gibbons’ report of the survey of the Amazon and its tributaries. Of the general impor- tance of this elaborate document to the commercial and manufacturing interests of this country there ean be no doubt; but there is doubt as to the policy of going to the expense of printing such a large | number of extra copies, particularly in face of the | fact that the chief features, the cream of the report, have been extensively disseminated by the news- papers throughout the country.

An ambitious cotemporary, writing from Wall street, rejoices over the discovery that Lord Clarendon referred to South and not to North America, when he spoke of the perfect unity of sentiment and design which existed between France and England in respect to all questions on this continent. It adgs that Lord Clarendon “was pained” to hear that his lan- guage had been interpreted in this country in such a way as to excite alarm or apprehension —that; not content with verbal assurances of his regret to “ one who always and everywhere takes av interest inwhat concerns his country” ~—more, we fear, than his ungrateful country takesin him—his lordship wrote a written dis- claimer of the designs.imputed to him, which document is now filed on record in the State Department at Washington. In short, accord- ing to our cotemporary, we are to understand that the unity of sentiment and concert of ac- tion whish Lord Clarendon announced would be the basis of all the future movements of | France and England in the continent of Amer- was nothing more than an understanding with regard to the affairs of La Plata, and had {no reference whatever either to Cuba or Mexico. This assertion is worth notice at the present moment. If it be true, a legitimate source of ) uneasiness is removed from our minds, and we may forma more unbiassed judgment on the Juropean quarrel than we can now pretend to entertain. If it be false, Lord Clarendon } stands in an awkward dilemma. He has either wilfa tated what is false, with a view to de- ceive us, or he and his colleagues have aban- i in comparison with the sympathy of the United States. Aosordingly, Lord Clarendon was in- structed to retract his offensive words, which he seems to have done very much to the satis- faction of the gemtleman who “always and every where takes an intesest in what concerns his country.” We are now told that La Plata was referred to. We have been under the im- pression that the rival claims of France and England in reference to La Plata were adjusted under Louis Philippe’s reign, six or eight years ago ; and that, ever since, both Powers have been so notoriously of oue mind on this subject, that it was rather superfluous for Lord Claren- don to proclaim the fuct with such a flourish of trumpets. In one word, Lord Clarendon’s explanation does not satisfy us. England and France may have abandoned their schemes with regard to Cuba; or Lord Clarendon may be simply stating, diplomatically, what is contrary to the fact. Whichever be the case, we are per- feetly assured that the interpretation put by Lord Clarendon on the language he used in the House some weeks ago is a new one, very different from the meaning with which it was spoken. Weare not aware that the fact sould alter our feelings or position. All our inter- ests imperiously require us to preserve a strict neutrality between the belligereuts; neither menace nor fayer onght to make us swerve one hair’s breadth from that stand. Against? tHe User or Deapiy Wearons.—The peaceable portion of our citi- zens will be glad to learn that, by a recent act of the Legislature, the use of deadly and dan- pons, where, in nearly nineteen cases out of | by other and more powerful influences. For the present at least no revolutionary movement is possible. In the commencement of all great wars like that upon which Europe is about entering, the spirit of nationality evoked in the struggle serves to keep in abey- ance the political discontent and resentment that ordinarily help to swell the ranks of the revolutionary party. All sectional and party differences are forgotten for the moment in that all absorbing sentiment. When, however, the pressure of taxation, and the constant drain that war entails upon the life blood and re- sources of a country, begin to make themselves felt, as was tlie case in France after Napoleon’s campaigns, that sentiment becomes weakened and the spirit of faction again resumes its as- cendancy. Here will arise the real danger of the coalition, It is the interest, as it is avowedly the policy of Russia, to preservea strictly de- fensive attitude until she has exhausted her enemies and brought them to the point whea the enthusiasm of their subjects will have cooled down, and when the pressure of commercial and financial distress will have rendered them ripe for revolutionary experiments. No matter what may be the successes gained at sea by the maritime Powers, she evidently will not aban- don that policy. She calculates upon the de- struction of her fleet and the interruption of her commerce 4s inevitable incidents of it; but she makes small account of them in comparison withthe advantages that the ruinous system of warfare to which she reduces the allies will ultimately give her over them. When we reflect on the enormous sums that will be expended by the coalition in carrying strain upon their resources a matter of grave gard to whose real estate “and moveables” the Emperor Nicholas is so deeply concerned— Russia is the administration of the New York Heratp. The conflict between these two powers, according tothe import of the Cabinet organ’s commentary, will probably end in the final ex- tinction of the Pierce administration by the Heratp administration, Perhaps this may be so. Nicholas says “the sick man must die,” and Nicholson seems to incline to the same opinion. The constitution makes no provision for two administrations at the same time. One or the other must give way. We shall fight it out; for, notwithstanding Santa Anna is the ally of the Pierce administration, the Henatp administration has the people on stating that he, along with several other members present, were formerly members of the Thomas Francis er Club, but finding that body did not carry out the objests for which the society was formed, they resolved to leave itand join the Club about organizing, which he was certain would succeed. Mr. Muroy then made a few eloquent remarks, ex- plavatory of the objects of the intended organization, invitingtall who bad any love for their country to unite with them in the good work of liberating Ireland from the despotism of England. Po) The mee.ing then adjourned until Monday week, when the society. will be fainly organized, and a President, Se. cretery and Treasurer clscted. Interesting Statistics of an Emigrant Ship.

Bird, which. arrived cn Wednesday from Liverpool, after thirty days pascage, brought 611 passengers. They are composed of emigrants from nearly all parts of Europe, bound to the ts side; and we abide the result. New Apsintstratioy Procramme.—The kitch- en or scavenger organ of the administration at Washington, in the intensity of its wrath at the dreadful havoc made among the Cabinet spoils- men by the broadsides of the New York HERALD, proposes an entirely new programme of policy, which is now supposed to be under serious consideration in the basement of the White House. It is the revival of the alien and sedition laws, and the abolition of the natu-. ralization laws, so as to rid the administration, at once and forever, of that “bold bad man” of the Henratp, who is charged as being a for- eigner, an alien, a Scotchman, and a scoundrel, This new programme will doubtless be tho- roughly discussed in the lower chamberg of the White House, over a game of dominoes and the usual supply of hot whiskey punch. When the scheme shall have been adopted, and is sent up to Congress, it will be telegraphed to the lated from the Courer des Etats Unis. } land of the West to found new homes, to find new associ- ations, and to secure benefits for themselves and their Fosterity, denied in their native lands, Of the whole number of passengers but sixteen were Americans; the number of the latter, however, was increased to seyen- teen on the paseage by a birth.

It was thought that the interests of these parties would be cemented before the adjourument, but this wrangle has widened the breach to such a de- gree that it is hardly probable they will ever again unite even for the purpose of defeating their equalty diseffected and quarrelling opponents, the hard and soft shell democrats. - Gov. Seymour, has vetoed the bill intended to deprive him of the power of filling certain offices that will become vacant shortly after the adjourn- men, and also of removing incompetent officers. ‘The wiseacres will have totry again. The lobbies are filled with agents, jobbers and speculators, all advocating abominable gross schemes to procure funds from the treasury or grants of lands proper- ly belonging to State institutions. Too many of them, we regret to learn, have already accomplished their unscrapulous designs. A bill submitting a prohibitory liquor law to the people, has been or dered to a third reading by the Senate. The A sembly has passed the bill defining the houndarie of the Central Park: 3o, a bill given mar women the control of ir children, earnings an personal property in certain cases.

Now the State prison will be the residence of persons who shall in any manner use a deadly weapon with necession to power; it is not however till after the torles were expelled from office, and the coalition liberal cabinet succeeded them, that we have actual evidence of the arrangement. A formal understanding that Great Britain and France should interfere to prevent the aggrandizement of the United States at the expense of Mexico or Spain, must have been one of the first negotiations between the new British ministry and the French Em- peror. {t first took the shape of a project of a treaty, which M. de Sartiges on the one side. and Lord John Russell on the other, earnestly wged upon our government for acceptance. Notified in unequivocal language that we could be no party to so onesided « bargain, Lord John Russell reminded us that Great Britain and France would thenceforth pursue their course independently. The language of his letter was alone sufficient to show what was the nature of the understanding between them. Fortunately, however, we are not compelled to rely alto- gether upon it. At the time the foreign am- bassadors were pressing the tripartite treaty intent to do bodily harm. Heretofore it was such a difficult tisk, on the part cf the public prosecutor, to prove. in cases of assault and battery with intent to kill that the intent of the aggressor was to take life—to be a mur- derer—that the jury very seldom found the accused guilty of the intent to take life ; con- sequently, (their verdict being only assault and battery.) the criminal escaped unwhipped of jus- tice.

Nicholas has a long account to settle with the French Emperor, and he will not rest satisfied until he squares it at the gates of Paris. Will England in this event still cling to ils ally? CaRBLESSNESS OF CORRESPONDENTS.—We were surprised to learn at the Post Office a few day’s since what a large number of valuable letters are returned daily from the Dead Letter Office at Washington, where they are sent in conse- quence of having been wrongly addressed. On y last no less than nineteen of these letters came back, which were originally depo- sited in this Post Office, all containing valuable enclosures. Two of them were written by bank cashiers, and seven by prominent business men of New York. Too much care cannot be used by business men and others in the address of their letters, not only in getting the names of the persons, towns, and States correct, but in seeing that they are all written in a pivin and legible cases that imprivonment in the penitentiary | hand. was resorted to by the courts, Now, however, the extent of crime will be speedily diminished, We are satisfied also that in a vast number of cases, very improper persons are employed in caught throwing away two millions of dollars.
