A message was received from Meyor Wo:d, in the Board of Councilmen, last night, refasing to concur im an ordinance lately passed compelling successful ccmpetitors for contracts to come before the Common Council to bave their contracts con- firmed. The Mayor is of opinion that the operation of the ordinance would be to largely increase the expense of contrec‘ore, by compelling them to lobby their contracts through the Common Council, and that the city treasury would in the end be made to suffer therefor. He is further of opinion thet the contract system is susceptible of much amendment. He also sent in a veto to a resolution Otrecting the Contmissioner of Streets and Lamps to withdraw the advertisements for cleanivg streets, until the Common Counci] could act thereupon, on the ground that the bids had been received, and therefore the resolution came too late, Among the resoiutione adopted by the Board was one calliag on the Comptroller to report the sum of money he had psid Wm.

His Lordship bad been ailing for some time, but, until the afternoon cf the day on which he breathed his ‘ast, no fatal result was apprehend- ed. This event had cast a genera! gloom over both armies, by whom the deceased nobleman, not with- standing the errors imputed to hiv, was uni- Wersaliy esteemed. The event was announced by Ministers in both honces of Parliament em the 3d, and a meseage from the Qacen wes delivered, calling upon them to testify their sense of the deceased nobleman’s services Dy allowing a pension of £1,000 # year to his widow, and one of £2,000 a year to hia eldest son and the wuccessor to his title, with remainder to his nex; male heir, An address to her Majesty was agreed to in both houses, expressive of their concurrence im the objects of her message.

I. another colama ‘will be found an interesting biographisal notice of the late Commarder in Chief. We have received no account of any fresh milita- ry operations by this arrival. It would appear from statements in the Paris papers and elsewhere, that ‘the Josves of the Allies in tho affair of the 18th Jane ‘were much heavier than the previous advices led us to suppose. Tho Union states that the French had ‘epwarda of 5,000 men put hors de combat. Wa have ‘wo suthenti> de‘ails 2s yet of the British casuaities: We learn from these last accounts what we did ‘Rot know before— ths‘ the combined squadrons took part in the general attack, and lost a considerable wumber of men. ‘Tre French government are about to propose a new loan of 750,000,000 franca, and a'so afresh levy of 140,000 men. This would indicate the convic- tdon that a general war is immicent. The French Emperor’s speech t) the legislative body contains a zeference to Austria, which, coupled with these facts, bas rather a threatening signification. From the Baltic there are accounts of one or two small sffairs,in which the ships of the combined Squadrons were engaged. The bombardment of SBweaborg, which had been previously, reported, @windles down into an exchange of shot between the Amphion and one of the forts. A powder ma gazine was, however, blown up by the gun@ of the former. There is s rumor trom Stocxbolm that Mystadt had been destroyed by the Britieh. The demonstrations ia Hyde Park against the Babbeth recreations of the Exglisn nobility had as wamed so slarmiog a character, that Lord Robsrt Grosvenor had deemed it advisable to withdraw his Sunday trading bill. Austria’s contemplated secession from the West- ern Alliance is commented upon at length in our editorial columns. Onr file of Singspore (E. I.) papers is dated to 24h of May.

The Anti-Slavery Fusion Conventions of Ohio and Indlana—The Fourth of Jaly in South ‘Carolina—Union or Disunion. We briefly adverted yesterday to that re- merkable antislavery omnium gatherum of political odds and ends in Ohio, called the Re- publican State Convention. We give to-day a detailed report of its proceedings, and some ac- count of a State convention on the same day, of similar choice spirits, in the State of Indiana. Furthermore, by way of contrast to these “high seasoned dishes” of the new anti-slavery move- ment, we append to them a report of a secession celebration of the Fourth of July in the heart of South Carolica. It will thus be seen that, although as widely separated as the poles upon the slavery question, our Northern negro wor- shippers and South Carolina secessionists have the came ultimate object in view, to-wit:—the diseolution of the Union. Josbua R. Giddings, the ruling spirit of this Ohio amalgamation convention, may be consid- ered as the embodiment of its principles and purpores. True, he thought itsresolutions were rather mild; but they are certainly strong enough for any sectional scheme short of open and immediate armed sedition against the federal government. The sumand substance of both this Ohio and this Indiang nigger worship. ping convention is a sectional crusade against the Scuth for the Presidency. J They speak of a National Convention, but the thingies absurd. Their National Conven- tion, like that at Buffalo in 1848, and that at Pitteburg in 1852, will be bounded on the south by Mason aud Dixon’s line and the Ohio river, only the party enrolled under it threa- tens to be a thousand times more formidable and dangerous than any anti-slavery combina. tion, not excepting that of the Missouri agitation of 1819-20. We see before us now no loop hole of escape from the perilous contingencies of a sectional scrub race, involving the most hostile and embittered elements of sectional jealousies, hatred, violence, diecord and disruption. In the North the anti-slavery fusionists are riding roughshod over all ebatructions. They have absorbed the new American party throughout the New England States—they have reduced it to a capitalation in Pennsylvania; they have swallowed it up at a mouthful in Ohio and In- diana; and almost everywhere else throughout the Northern States, excepting the State of New York, we find the Know Nothings playing second fiddle and acting as tide waiters to the Seward Holy Alliance. This is a deplorable state of things; but it is nothing very wonderful. At the Philadelphia Know Nothing National State Council there was 8 split upon Southern slavery, the South, with New York to back them, going off in one direction, and the bulk of the North in another. The Order in every State was thus left free to take its own course, and to torm its own alli- ances for the elections of the current year, leaving the general combined plan of operations for 1856 an open question. Acting accordingly, the Know Nothings of New England, Pennsy]- vania, Ohio and Indiana have joined the anti- slavery coalition, and in the remaining North- western States they will probably pursue the tame policy of making hostility to the exten- sion of slavery the base line of their operations. On the other hand, in Kentucky, Tenneesee and North Carolina, standing upon their conserva- tive Philadelphia platform, we find the Know Notbings in the field, not as the fag end of any other party, but in their own right and title as the American party, taking the place of the whig party in opposition to the administration spoils democracy. What the results will be from this extraor_ inary state of things, looking, for example, at the Know Nothings in Ohio and the Know No- things on the opposite side of the river in Kentucky, a few weeks will determine in the South. Possibly the effect of these Northern anti-slavery affiliations may be the same in these three aforesaid Southern States as in Virginia; poesibly the Know Nothings, from the bad odor of this Pierce, Marcy and Forney ad- ministration everywhere, and the consequent defections in the democratic party, may carry Kentucky, Tennessee and North Carolina, in spite of the abolition proclivities of their Northern bretbren. If they do, then there is *til a good prospect for this new party in 1856, in electing one of the three highest Presidential candidates for the decision of the House of Representatives, whatever may be the number, form and elements of the opposing parties, North and Sonth. But, if from these anti- slavery associations of the Northern Kaow Nothings, the Order should be defeated in the approaching Southern August elections, there wil) yet be time enough for a more national and homo-geneous reconstruction of the party for the Presidential election ; bat there will be no more time to love in thie senseless hoe and ory against the Pope. The extracts to which we have directed this NEW YORK HERALD; TUESDAY, JULY 17, 1855. article show that the Seward anti-slavery coali- tion is assuming the proportions of a powerful Northern party, and that secessionism in the South is also moving ih the direction of a vio- lent sectional organization for the Presidential struggle. Between these opposing forces the administration democracy have already been cruebed. Our hopes, then, of a third party in behalf of the conservative people of both sec- tions, and in eupport of the constitution’ of the Union, sti rest with the national Know Nothings of New York and the South, and their platform. Meantime, between a surrender to Seward and the maintenance of their inde- pendent position, let the Order in New York prepare to decide. The News trom Europe—Death of Lord Rag fan—Auststa About to Secede from the Went= exn Aillance. The death of Lord Raglan, the Commander- in-Chief of the Britich forces in the Crimea, is another melancholy episode in the great drama which is destined to bring affliction and mourn- ing into the bozom of many a European family. This gallant veteran, like his colleague, Mar- shal St. Arnaud, has not had the consolation of witnessing the consummation of the labors in which their energies have been exhausted. They have toth been swept off by disease, just at the moment when they might have reasonably hoped to haye seen their efforts crowned with that coveted success which would have shed a holo aroand their military reputations. To Lord Raglan this was the more impor- tant from the severe censures with which his conduct has been visited since he has had the command of the British forces in the Crimea. Errors he is said to have committed, and those of an important character, ia his di- rection of the plans of the campaiga, but we have yet to learn how far he was individually responsible for them. An impartial history ot these operations would perhaps show that both St. Arnaud ond Canrobert had their share in the mistakes of judgment which led to the dis asters for which he is so much blamed. Large allowance, too, must be made for the excep- tional circumstances in which Lord Raglan was placed. The expedition itself was a blunder which cannot be fairly laid to his account, and no effort was made by the British governmant, until a late period of the campaign, to remedy its consequences. With insufficient forces, an unfavorable season, a commissariat ill sup- plied, and confusion and disorganization in every branch of the service under hiscommand, it may we)l be questioned whether Lord Reglan could have effected more than he did. It has been said, and perhaps with reason, that a younger and more energetic officer might have been found equal to the difficulties in which he was placed. This sesumption, however, re- mains to be proved by future events. Such a man has recently been appointed to the com- wand of the French army, and thus far his efforts have not been attended with the success ‘expected from him. He has al- ready lost large numbers of the allied troops in desperate attempts to eclipse the ser- vices of his predecessore, but no commensurate advantages have been obtained from these sac- tifices. The press in England, with that readi- ness to censure unfruitful operations which bore £0 heavily upon the gallant veteran who is just dead, is already beginning to visit with its strictures what it calls the impetuous rash- ness of General Pellissier. In view of these facts, in view of the disgraceful conduct of Lord Aberdeen’s administration, which suffered the deceased nobleman to be made the scape- goat of its own errors, and in presence of his chivalrous character, and many noble and gen- erous qualities, justice should induce us to deal gently with the reputation and mistakes of the man, whore only fault seems to have been that he allowed his high sense of duty to outweigh the consciousness of his failing powers, Passing from this tribute of personal justice to the memory of a brave and honorable soldier, we have now to consider the new phase, which, according to the Jast accounts, the con- duct of Austria is likely to give to the war it- self, If we are to credit the statements of the Vienna and Berlin correspondents of the London journals, the Cabinet of Vienna has made up its mind to take no active part in the military operations of the Allies against Rus- sia, In the motion which Austria is about to bring forward in the Frankfort Diet, it isstated that, whilst she will express her determination to abide by the inseparability of the Four Points on which the treaty of the 2d of December is based, she will declare that she neither feels hereelf bound nor called upon to back by force of arms, demands which go beyond the inter- pretation which she herself has put upon them. It this statement be correct, and the recent with- drawal of a large amount of the Ozar’s forces from Russian Poland would seem to confir a it, we may regard the secession of Austria from the quadruple alliance as virtually. accom- plished. Whether she can count up- on the Bund to support her against the consequences of this independent position is a matter of doubt; Prussia ecems deter- mined not to swerve from the line of policy which she has laid down for herself, and having been isolated by the mancuvres of Austria from all share in the Vienna conferences it is not probable that she will feel disposed to strengthen or guarantee her rival in the Diet, by the consolidation of German interests which the latter proposes for her own security. The course which the Allies will pursue in the event of the defection of Austria from her engage- ments {fs evident to every one who has watched the progress of events during the past eighteen months. Louis Napoleon and Lord Palmerston have not been coquetting without an object with the leaders of the revolutionary partiesin Hun- gary and Poland. A war of nationalities will be claimed and supported by the Allies, and the dismemberment of the Austrian empire, and a new territorial distribution of Germany, will ia all probability be its first results. For these eventualities tae French Emperor teems to be making energetic preparations, A new loan of $150,000,000, amd a fresh levy of 140,000 men, are called for—the latter, no doubt, to enable him to concentrete an army on the Rhine, In his late address to the legis- lative body, he tells them that he is waiting to see what course Austria will pursue. His atti- tude of patience is, however, marked by cir- cumetances which are significant of menace. Tue Reerrrociry Traeary—Deriwes Pam Bacx.—Our Washington despatch gives some interesting statistics relative to the reciprocity treaty, including a statement of the amonnt of moneys already refunded under the act of Con- arees of last Seasion, authorizing the refunding of all duties after the oonelusion of the treaty in June, 1854, according to the scale presented by the treaty. We trust, on reflection, that - power tocrush avy combination against them Mr. Secretary Guthrie will refand the duties exacted. under his circular on Canada milk. The treaty allows cattle, milch cows included, to be brought in from Canada duty free. We think clesrly miJk was intended to be inclad- ed. Besides, the law is easily evaded by the Canada milkman bringing his cows over the line to be milked. We are aga nst the duty on milk. Why did not. Mr. Maroy see that this wae attended to properly? Bank or Murua Repemprion.—The commit- tee appointed at the recent convention of bankers at Syracuse to report a detailed plan for the establishment of # bank of mutual redem > tion, will have no trouble in completing their labors to the satisfaction of all parties interest- ed. Such an institution has long been wsated in this State, to dieplace the Metropolitan Bank. The arbitrary manner in which that concera has conducted the business of redemp‘ion has disgusted every country banker and every broker, and they are determined to submit to it no longer. They have the remedy in their own hands, and have only to put forte their Progregs and improvement is the order of the dey in banking as well as ia everything else, andin the natural course of things some sub- stitute for the present imperiect system of bank redemption would sooner or later be adopted The effort now being made by the couatry bankers to free themselves from the oppression of the present system, will hasten the revola- tion and give us a more perfect plan at an ear- Mier day. By all means give us the Bank of Mutual Redemption. THE LATEST NEWS BY MAGNETIC AND PRINTING TELEGRAPRS, From Washington.
