We surrender a large portion of our a,¢aila- ble space this morning to a curious miscel- Janeous chapter on Presidential politics, from our newspoper cotemporaries of both sec- tions of the Union, representing the various active parties in the field for She succession.

It appears now too certain to admit of doubt that the threa- tening aspect of our relations with the British government may be traced in no slight mea sure to the maladroit management and in- trigues of the Honerable Wm. L. Marcy. When Mr. Pierce became President the sub- jects of negotiation or dispute with England were five in number--the Canada reciprocity question, the fisheries, the Central American question, Cuba and Hayti, or Dominica. It would have been a very simple matter for a men of diplomatic ability to have settled all five satisfactorily at one and the same time.

In this batch of specutative and suggestive extracts there are several features worthy of special notice, and the most remarkable is that which betrays the general dissatisfaction of the democracy with Mr. Pierce’s administration, and their repudiation of his pretensions for another Presidential term, The Cabinet organ et Washington, upon this subject, delivers a pompous and mock heroic lecture to an Ark- ansas brother in the church for daring to ques- tion the availability of Mr. Pierce and the out- standing old fogies of the day. On the other hand, the article which follows from a staunch Pennsylvania democratic paper, gives the pipe layers for Mr. Pierce and all concerned with him tary blameless in the matter.

The tone and temper of this article show distinctly enough that Pennsylvania has con- sented to set him aside as often as she can stand it—having in 1840, ’44, '48 and ’52 agreed to forego his claims and to wait a little longer, in deference to the will of the party. Patience is patience, but the life of man is limited, and the Pennsylvanians are now in earnest, They will very likely make the nomi- nation of Mr. Buchanan an issue at Cincianati, involving the gain of a large majority or the Tite News.

Wise. As matters stand, however, there is here, in the availabilities of Mr. Wise, a hitch, which places him in the rear of Mr. Buchanan. In the third place, the extracts we republish from the Seward organ at Buffalo, betray an extraordinary quickness of vascillation con- cerning the Presidential aspirations and quali- fications of “ Live Oak George Law.’ Oa the 20th of the month our Butfalo cotemporary substantially pronounces “ Live Oak George” a whole team, a host in himself, and a very for- balance in the treasury. The report of the secretary was next read by Mr. Win. Allen Butler. The number of bibles and testaments distributed during the lost twelve months was, as stated in the report, 65,888. ‘These were published in different and distri- buted among the different classes of the. yo pulation of this city, its criminal, benevolent and other insti- tutions.’ Portions of ‘these were sold, and » portion given gratuitously. Sules to the number of 1,716 bibles and tes‘aments have been also made at the society’s de- itory, making the total issues of the year 67,004. Mr. Vatron, one of the agents of the society in this city» visited 10 777, of whom 1;5:8 were found totally destitui of the Scriptures, and 19 partially so. 822 families re- fused to receive it.

Messrs. Conrad, Rilling and Sinythe have continued: their faithful labors among the . newly arsivecy emigrants. The decrease in emigration during thé past year bas caused @ consequent diminution in the numero‘ the bibles distributed.

Among the humane and criminal institu- ticns, 4.012 bibles and 2,782 testaments were distributed, while the number given on board of vessels of diiferent nations caren at this port and the smaller craft on our rivers was jittle lees than 100,000. The increase in the cistribution of volumes in this department last year, over the previous twelve movths, was, of bibles 1,827, and of testaments 26,812. The report coneluded by’ speaking of the present prospercus condi ion ot the society and the hopeful prospect of its labors in the future, wv. Dax.

He spoke of the wonderful effects which bad been produced through the means of the missiovary enterprises from the times of sent a protest to the British Cabinet. The result was a promise on the part of Lord Palmerston that recruitiog in our territory should be stopped at once. He said in Parliament that tue English government did not wish to them; but, as the skilful surgeon oftea seari- fies the part before operating, Marcy pre- ceded his onslaught on the enlistments by a fierce despatch on the Mosquito questioa. This was cent in June or July last. The British government, knowing nothing of any new sub- ject of quarrel, replied to Marcy in a de- termined tone, reviewed the whole tenor of former negotiations on the Ceutral American questions, and took occasion to advauce Lord Palmerston’s peculiar crotchety views on these points at great length. Very shortly after this the enlistment scan- dal became public, and great alarm was caused in England by the news of the excitement it had created here. The mercantile interest took fright at the very theught of a dis- turbance with America; and Lord Palmerston, in order to anticipate the sterm, rose in his place in Parliament and announced that, in order to satisfy the United States govern- ment, not only had enlistments been stopped within the frontiers of this couutry, but orders had been sent to the British provinces to stop them there likewise. This apolo- gy, Lord Palmerston trusted, would remove any little irritation that might have existed previously, and diplomatic intercourse would go on as smoothly as usual. But the chief of the British Cabinet did not understand the true parport of Marcy’s Mosquito despatch. Much less did he foresee that about the time his conciliatory speech was arriving New ORueANS, Nov. 24, 1855. By the arrival of the steamship Mexico, from Gatves- ton, we learn that he Hon. Thomas J.

Feasons, and six were challenged peremptorily by the counsel of the accused. The court room was crowded with spectators, who evinced intense in- terest in the proceedings. The Coroner's investigation into the circumstances by which Mr. Edward Neville, late proprietor of the Kings County Hotel, came to his death on the 9th inst., was resumed yesterday. From the fall report of the testimony, given in another column, it will be geen that the surgeon who made the post mortem examination of the body, is of opinion that Nr. Ne- ville’s death was not caused by violent blows upon the head, as had been conjectured by many persons. It will also be seen that the fireman and deck hand who were on duty on the ferry boat on the night on which Mr. Neville disappeared, are quite positive that he was on board about 2 o'clock, and that he did not go ashore when the boat reached her destination on the Williamsburg side. The statements of these witnesses are so clear that the impression is irresistible that Mr. Neville perished by his own act. The investigation will be continued to-day, when, perhaps, other circumstances may be brought to light which will place a different aspect upon this sad and mysterious affair. Our despatches from Washington this morning are unusually interesting. They give the latest de- velopements respecting our affairs with Great Bri- tain, the movements of the politicians relative to the organization of both houses of Congress, the sub- jecta which occupy the attention of the Cabinet, and other matters of grave and trifling importance.

But as “Live Oak George” has cast his fortunes into the hands of the American party, and as his name, popularity and influence have done much, as the Seward organs themselves admit, to give the Know Nothings the supre- macy in this commonwealth, we incline to the opinion that “the farce” has not been played out, and may possibly not be played out till November, 1856, Next, we have two democratic cetimates of the campaign—a philosophical and an arithme- tical estimate—both worthy of notice. The philosophical estimate is from a Texas paper, and warns the people of the South agaiast the danger of being humbugged by an equivocal Know Nothing platform on the everlasting nigger question; because, according to our Texas friend, the Know Nothings have their strength in the North, among the free soil op- position rank#, and can’t secrifice them. On the other hand, as they will want a Southern State or two to give them any chance of suc- cess, our Texas philosopher is quite sure they will patch up a plausible dodge on the great slavery issue, calculated to avoid any serious alarm to Northern free soilera, while it shall secure a satisfactory Southern interpretation. letters branding the British agents ia this coun- try as malefactors. Still less did he imagine that before his attempt to conciliate reached Washington, Marcy would bave replied to bis former despatch on Central American affairs in a manner and language falling bat litsle short of an absolute provocation to war. This last despatch of Marcy’s embraced all the grounds of dispute—the enlistment business, the Central American questions, the conduct of Crampton aud the British consuls, the Do- minican squabble, and the policy of Great Britain in general. It was especially eloquent on the Mosquito question; being based, in this particular, on a former correspondence of Ab- bott Lawrence’s on the same endject, aad Mr. Marcy having availed himself, of course with- out acknowledgment, of the arguments which Mr. Lawrence had used. This despatch reached England at the same time as the trial and confession of Hertz, aud the letters of Mr. Cushing. Relyiog contideat- ly on the ample apology he had made in Par- liament, Lord Palmerston was thunderstruck hy the contents of this unexpected mail.
