The New: The Fulton steamship arrived yesterday at our port, but her news had already beea anticipated by ‘the Canadian, which left Liverpool on the same day (the 27th) on which the Fulton sailed from Havre. ‘We publish some additional extracts from the files which she brings. The Emperor and Empress of France are now at Biarritz, where it is said the Em. peror is busy revising the plan of the new constitu: ‘tion for Spain, and otherwise aiding the consolida- tion of the O'Donnell régime. The new Cortes, as projected by him, will, it is said, be a packed body, like the Corps Legislatif, and the ready instrameat of despotism. Prince Adalbert,of Bavaria, had ar- rived at Madrid, and was to be married,on the 21th ult. to one of the Infantas of Spain, sister of the King. The Neapolitan question still remains un- settled, aud the despatch of a couple of steamers to Palermo bad given rise to a report that a second out- break had occurred in Sicily. Baron Hubner had not arrived in Naples when the last accounts left. Should his mission fail, it is apprehended that there will be serious troubles in Italy. An important dis- covery has been made in England, by a gentleman named Bessemer, infthe mode of smelting iron, which will effect.an enormous economy on the pre- sent system, take the existing monopolies out of the hands of the Russians and Swedes, and divert the iron trade of the world into new channels. One of the most important features of the news is the report of the half yearly meeting of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, at which Mr. Brown, one of the members of Parliament for that towa, advocated immediate aid for the construction of the Honduras Inter-oveanic Railway, in a form which was adopted by the Chamber. Mr. Browa Pointed ont the immediate advantages which would Tesult to the trade both of England and the Uni+d States from the completion of this work, and he also reported the final settlement of the Central American dispute between our Cabinet and tha England. The royal family of Oude still remained at Southampton, aud their style of living attracted , owing to the contrast existing be- id appearance of the princes aad princesses and the eqnalid filth of their servants, Advices from &t. Petersburg represent that city a+ gaiety and wealth, owing to the pumber of distinguished people who are there en route to Moscow to witness the coronation ceremonies, The Constifutionnel of August 23. in a long aad elaborate asticle on slavery in the United States and the Presidential elec ion, offers the following ad. vice: “Whoever may be the next President elected our country will demand nothing better thaa to live @ good terms wits the United States It is of the greatest importance to them that, fz an act of such gtavity as the choice of the head of the goverament prszions should be allowed to prevail as little as pos sible.” The Cambria had not arrived at Halifax at 11 o'clock last evening. She left Liverpoe! on the 30th ult., and is now in ber fourteenth day. The steamship Empire City, which left Havana on the 6th Inst., arrived here yesterday afternoon The Island of Cuba was visited by » dreadfal hurri cane, which raged on the 27th and 28th of Augast doing much damage. Six American and one Eng lish vessels were tally wrecked ut Sagua la Grande. The Cardenas fight house was swept away. All over the island the crops were damaged. One good resulied from the storm, which was that yellow fever immediately abated, and Bo new cases were reported after the gale. Two English vessels bad lately landed three bandred and nivety Chinese Coolies, and during the voyage of one (a bark) over one hundred unfortanates had died on board. The Captain-General had visit- @4 Puerto Principe, in order to open the agricul- tural exbivition. I) wes said that the affairs of Dominica would be debated in an executive council held by bis Excellency during the progress of the fair. It is worthy of remark that the severe storm alloded to above, commenced on 27th of Angust,and raged eastward on 28th, moderating on 20th, and that at noon on 30th ultimo, after experiencing se vere easterly winds for several days, Florida was visited by a dreadful hurricane, and Apalachicola was inundated from, probably, the effects of a con- tinuation of the came gale. We have files from Bermoda to the 26th o August. The Royal Gazette of that day has the following items of news:—* Arrived, on Thurs day last, ber Majesty's steamer Driver, Captain Chambers, with two gon boats, each earrying two guns—the Nettle, Liewt.Commander T. G. Key, and the Onyx, Lieut.Commander James Hewett. The Onyx and Nettle are, we andere‘and, to be stationed here.” The Hamilton Parish Friendly Temper. ance Society had celebrated its tenth anniversary. From Washington we learn that no instroctions @ferent in character from those previously sent out have been event to California by the Navy De. The instructions were sent to Commo ne, or the senior officer on that station, him that the laws of the United States reed, and public property pro- » public officers in the discharge of {nothing more. Similar instructions ‘were also sent to Gen. Wool. A tremendous Fremont mass meeting was held at Newark, New Jersey, yesterday afternoon, in which New Jersey expressed her preference for Mr. -Fre- mont in the most decided manner. From twelveto fifteen thousand persons were in attendance, and the enthasiastm waa intense. Ex-Governor Pennington presided, assisted by a number of Vice Presidents. The meeting was addressed by Senator Haie, of New Hampshire, Mr. Boriingame, and several other partment. ore Mer advisine ‘The democratic primary election for Congression- al, City, Assembly and Charter conventions, took place yesterday afternoon. Tt resulted in an over whelming defeat of the Custom House opponents of Mayor Wood—that gentleman's friends carrying every ward but two in the city. There were serions astarbanves in the Sixteenth gud Seventeenth would be sustained by the bill holders, as all the notes would be redeemed. A committee of five was appointed to investigate the matter, and report re- media! measures. A communication was received in the Board of Aldermen last evening, from the Commissioner of Streets and Lamps, in reply to what he charges to be the unjust comparisons drawn between him and his predecessors by the Comptrollor és his last semi- annual report. The Board meet again this evening. The Board of Councilmen did not organize last evening for want ofa quorum. The primary elec- tions attracted most of the democratic members to their respeetive wards.’ The brig Braman, which was seized by the United States Marshal as a slaver, was soid yesterday at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, together with the tackle, &c., for the sum of $6,200. Louis Brown, a colored man, who was charged with being engaged in the slave trade, and whose trial has occupied the United States District Coart for the past two or three days, was acquitted yes- terday. The sales of cotton yesterday reached about 1,500 bales, at full prices. The principal sales wero made to spinners. Flour was steady, with fair sales at unchanged prices. Wheat was firm for choice new white, which sold at $1 60 a $1 68, and new Southen and choice Western red, at $1 50a $153. $1 55. Corn was firmer, with sales of Western mixed, at 68c.a 69c., and distillery €o., at 62}¢. Pork was firmer, with sales of mess, at $19 87} 2 $20. Sugars were active, with sales of 1,500. 1,600 hhds. Cuba muscovedo at full prices, closing with the turn of the market in favor of the seller. Coflee was steady, with sales of 600 a 700 bags Rio. Freights were steady, with engagements of grain to Liverpool, at at 7d.a Sd. in bulk and bags, chie‘ly, at 744.0 7id., and some wheat was taken fer London, at 8)d. Extraordinary Bargain and Sale—The New York Intsh Catholics to be Sold Ont to the Know Nothings. The Irish Catholics of this State are in danger of being sold out to the Knew Nothings for what they will fetch in that market for Mr. Buchanan, Read the extraordinary disclosures which we publish in another part of this paper, from the American Celt, an Irish demeeratic Catholic jour- nal of this city. The wolf is among the floc’ and where is the shepherd? Where is the v rable father, Archbishop Hughes? Accor¢ to his official organ—the Freeman's Jour sleeping comfortably in the toils of the t erous democracy, like poor Semson in the arms of the deceitful Delilah; but it is time to wake him up. It isinvariably when the shepherd is absent or asleep that the flock is invaded, cut up and dispersed inthe wilderness. Awake! arou Oh! shepherd! fer the wolf, yea, a pack of wolves, are peeping through the bars. We gave yesterday from the Fillme chanan organs of this city, iar Maine elec the expediency of a fusion between . the domocra cy and the Know Nothimgs, in order to make sure of the defeat of Fremont. But the extracts which we give to-day from the Cathelic Cel far: us with the plot itself; and a very plausibi plot it is, for a reguiar bargain and sale, The plan, it appears, is thus arranged for killing two birds with the same stone in this great State of New York. Pennsylvania hangs over the head of Mr. Buchanan, like the sword of Damocle suspended by a single hair. But if New Y« can be secured Mr. 1 al—t Buchanan can be elee perhaps, without Pennsylvania, or 2 Northern State, This, therefor « The Know Nothings af this State to cast 0) »for the Bachanan electoral ticket, thas New York for Buchanan, while the domo- stus Brooks for our next G ful plot! And there are p! materials in the democratic guiar contract. Let us sec. instance, the results of our State 1853—the year of the democ split—and count up our Know Nothing chickens of the democratic bantam breed:— NEW YORK STATE ELECTIONS. Hard Vote Sy Wr s amp to mal Let us elections from Now, with the aid of the extracts from the Celt, (and without the other statistics laid before the Cincinnati Convention by the softs, which is not necessary now to give.) we shall be able to understand these discrepancies in the bard si The split between the two democrati tions in 1852 tive strength of each in the fall electi ni they were thus proved to stand nearly equal, at some ninety odd thousand votes, In 1853 th position of Horatio Seymour (soft) on the liquor vote, Hence the pert of the hard vote 34.000. Thus began the fusion of the ha with the Know Nothings. In 1855 we flad the soft shell vote standing ne up to the mark of ite original strength in ‘53, but the hard falls short some 40,000, and the greatly increas: Know Nothing vote will explain where much ¢ this hard shell balance was thrown. By this time the hards had come to the belief, with other deluded politicians, that Koow Nothingism was destined to rule the country, and they began to be as thick as thieves among the Know Nothing lodges. If the sofie had been for Buchanan at © nati, they might have had everything their own way; but they were for poor Pierce, and it be came necessary to cut them down. Iiew admission of both hards and softs upon a footing of equality, by which process poor Pierce and Douglas were both cheated of the vote of New York, and Buchanan nominated. The Conven- tion substantially declared that the eympathy of the softs for free white labor in the Territories against black slave labor, was as great a crime as the dark lantern oaths and Ned Buntline asao- ciations of the hards with the Know Nothings that the heresies of the one faction neutr: heresies of the other, and that, therefore, they stood upon eq» al ground, and both factions were democrats, good and true, and entitled to an equal representation in behalf of the great demo- cratic party. But this charming arrangement, which oporat- ed so sweetly among our hard and soft spoils. men at Cincinnati, has not worked quite so hap. pily among the honest masses of the party at home. They want something more than a bar- gain for the epoils. We dare say that half, and perhaps more than half, the soft shell vote of “the rural districts,” bag and baggage, has a)- ready gone over to Fremont ; and that thous ind, nein- of honest bards, toe, not for sale, will find this horrible Pierce-Buchanan pelicy of making Kansas a slave State, by fire, swerd and slaughter, & dose too bitter to swallew, with all the And while ion of the hard shell recruits, are left in a bad way, the re-united de- mocracy themselves find thet their re-union is but a sham, a delusion, and a snare. Hence the des- perate expedient of a democratic trade—a regular bargain and sale—with the remains of the Know Nothing lodges, through which Mr, Buchanan is to have the New York Know Nothing vote for President, and Erastus Brooks (K. N.) the demo- cratic vote for Governor, These are the materials and this is the ar- rangement with which the Irish Catholics are confidently expected to co-operate. They, of course, are ready to be sold for the benefit of Erastus Brooks if they are ready for this nice little plot. And why should they object to Brooks? To be sure, he hates the Catholies and their religion as the devil hates holy water; has labored hard to shew to the world that their Archbishop is little better than a liar, ahypocrite and a cheat, obtaining money and property upon false pretences. But what of that, if the co- operation of the Irish Catholies upon Brooks is really necessary to secure the Know Nothing vote for Buchanan, eo that he may be elected? The killing of the Irish waiter Keating by a hard shell democrat, and the protection etlorded by the democracy of Congress to the homicide, was rather hard upon Irish sympathies, we know; but let our Irish fellow citizens only look at the frightful catalogue of murders and crimes com- mitted by the democracy in Kansas, and to which weare all called upon to submit at the hacard of disunion, and they will soon learn to forget the ease of poor Keating. Meantime, we would respectfully ask of Arch- bishop Hughes how far he is willing to ce-ope- rate in this charming democratic and Know Nothing plot, whereby the Know Nothings are to support Buchanan in this State; provided, al- ways, that the democrats—Irish Catholics, and all—vote heartily for Erastus Brooks as Gov- ernor? Sr. Axoruer ‘Lerrer rrom Rurus Cnoatr. —Abont the funniest things in this highly amusing. though all-important Presidential cam- paign, are the political letters which we have kad, from time to time, beginning with the “ebo shin and turkey gizzard” epistle of Gov. Wise, of Virginia, and including that of Rufus Choate, written for the purpese of inducing the voters of Maine to support the democratic ticket. The re- sult which attended this latter effort would have deterred any sensible politician from making another attempt of the same kind—at least until the memory of the failure of the other had be- come somewhat obliterated. But not so. Mr. Choate, like the Palinurus of Virginia—~as Mr. Wise has been called—fancies himself great on letters, and cannot resist the temptation of spreading himself in that line on every possible occasion. The last missive from him that we find in print is one directed to the chairman of a committee of arrangements for a mass meetin; ef the democracy at Concord, last week. Here it is:— Bostox, Sept. 8, 1856. Drax Sin—I oxght to have thanked you fur your letter abd imvitetion & time, but humerou« engage: ments bave b me.

The idea exp’ the same as that exp r. Wise, which we publish Herat. In the latter, however, the sentiment was more formulated, and was embodied in that cla al elegance of style which the productions of that eloquent Vir, ove which we now publish is also racy of its au- thor. Itis Choatish all over. Both deserve to be placed side by side, carefully embalmed and preserved for posterity, as s evide ence of the ec- centricities of their We would, however, in all kin 8, bog the pair of letter writers to dispel the lly fears about the safety of the Union, and not to let thelr sleep be disturbed by any such monstrous night- The Union is, and is likely to be for some perfectly safe and sound. And after the uration of Mr. Fremont, on the 4th of March next, it will be in a more thor y sound and healthy condition than it has been for many years back. In the words of & then, we would say to these modern Jeremiahs, “ Let not your hearts be troubled.” Heaps I Wry, Tar c.—The Bu- in and Fillmore parties seem to be playing with each other the very interesting game de- ove caption. The Buchanan sare constantly expressing conviction—in which, indeed, most sensible people endorse them—that Fillmore has not got, in their own expressive language, « the ghost of achance.” The Louisville Journd, the great champion of Know Nothingism in Kentucky, in favor of Fillmore for the Presidency, and of the extermination of foreigners, throws back the taunt, and irreverently exclaims that “old pelter” ~meaning the venerable Mr. Buchanan—has not got the ghost of a chance against Fremont. If, says this doughty champion of Fillmore, ‘The coptest were left to Fremont and Buchanan, Fro- mont would get tbe whole one bundred aud seventy six cleciorn! voues of the free States. Altuough Mr. Bucoan ab received tae nomination at Cine'nnali from his eap- posed availability at the North, he has nots particle of strength in the North, and be cansot carry « single Northern State. An old Latin maxim says that it is right to learn, even from our enemies, We have no doubt that the assertions contained in the foregoing paragraph are perfectly correct. We expect to see them verified—independently of the hypothe- sis—in November next, when it will be made per- ‘eotly clear that neither Mr. Buchanan nor Mr. Fillmore have ever had “ the ghost of a chance.” ture, chat the A Deap Loss.—When the democracy were got ting up their grand torcblight procession they appropriated three hundred dollars to pay for banners on which were to be inscribed mottoes deeeriptive of the joy which the unterrified felt at the news which they expected to get from the Lumber State. But things wont all wrong, and the democracy were “laid out flat.” So the ban- ners were not used, and the three hundred was a ved investment. In this connection, as they say in New England, it is pleasant to quote what the organ of the nigger driving democracy says of the result in Maine:-There is a great deal of noice over this little affair, bat there is no —— No? Perhaps not! Wait till No- vember. Monuments mw Awmerica.—It is the common remark of Buropeans that our great cities and public places are almost entirely devoid of those testimonials which art aad munificence raise as testimonials of respect to the great men of the nation—those monuments alike honors tothe glo- rious dead and proofs of the taste, the refinement and the generosity of the living. This is in part caused by our youth asa nation. The fine arts are slow of growth, and are expensive exotics. We have, however, got the money, which is the great point, after all, and a taste for the refined and beautiful is almost a necessary consequence of our exceeding prosperity. Therefore we find monuments in .process of erection all over the country—from King’s Mountain to Cape Cod— from Bunker Hill to the battle ground of New Orleans. Our Massachusetts fellow citizens have done a good work in this way, and have another under consideration. About three years since a grand celebration of the departure of the May- flower from.Delft Haven, on the first of Augusi, sixteen hundred and twenty, was holden at Ply- mouth, and the steps initiatory to the erection of a monument to the Pilgrim Fathers were taken at that time. We are now informed that the trustees of the fund raised for this noble purpose have accepted a design by Mr. Harnmatt Bil- lings, a Boston architect. The design is thus des- eribed:— father sobs rt 2 Pipmouth, coussts of an ootagon 18, to be ‘at Plymout of an dion which’ standa a statue of Feith. “From the four smaller 9 of the paces project buttresses, ee which are seated Sauree emblematic of macs, Jaw and iil sonal them in panels, a sito relief of «tho im Delf Haven,” tbe ing of the scot Compact i the Cabin of the May- Sowers ? “the Landiug at Plymouth,” and ‘the First Treaty with ne —. ’?

The statue of Faith will be 70 feet high, and the sitting figures 38 foet high, thus making it in magnitude the greatest work of the kind in the world, while as a work of = it will be a subject of pride to every American The New England merchants will doubtless come down liberally for this affair, which pro- mises well for art. It will, however, we fear, be a slow work. The Bunker Hill Monument, which, though it cost a great deal of money, is not a miracle of good taste or beauty, dragged along through sixteen years. The Washington Monument Association at the capital, have been collecting funds for twenty years or more, and six years since the foundation stone was laid. ‘The monument is now only commenced, and the work is suspended for an indefinite period. A Washington Monument Society was organized in this city some twelve years ago, The agents col- lected come money—how much we cannot say; but we never heard of the first stone being laid for the monument, or what became of the funds. The Washington affair and several others failed because the management of them fell into the hands of politicans, whose creed is entirely des- titute of patriotism or love of art. Our New England friends must be very careful of this rock. So far, they have done well. In other places we are glad to see monuments rising. Our Washington statue in Union square has received a great deal of praise, but no more than it deserves. That affair was properly managed. A number of liberal citizens paid the money quietly, the statue was placed on its pedes- tal, and on the anniversary of our national birth- day the subscribers gracefully donated it to the people of the United States, the Empire City holding it in trast—and a noble trust itis. The Sate of Virginia has ordered from Crawford a statne of the Pater Patria, which is finished, and which will be brought to Norfolk by one of our national ships. The grounds in front of the Pre- sident’s house are ornamented with an equestrian statue of Jackson, and the battlefield of New Orleans bas been similarly decorated. King’s Mountain, the Thermopylae of the Revolution, has its monument—the captors of Major Andre have a suitable memorial on the heights of Tarrytown—a pillar commemorates the gallaut deeds of the Minute Men on the plains of Lexington—a monument marks the spot in Con- cord where the first British soldier fell the Revolution, and the city of New York has appropriated twenty-three thousand dol- lars for a monument to one of her bravest sons, Major General Worth, These and many more are recent works, and give bright promise for the future. Only keep them out of the hands of the politicians, and their success is certaiu. Let our Plymouth Rock patriots remember this particularly, and let the sons of New Eagland, wherever dispersed, come down liberally with the dust. They are very fond of making long speeches and stupid toasts about the Puritans— now let ue see how much they venerate their memory. Tur Marxe Exrertoy.—Everybody is talking about the Maine election. It threw the Captain Rynders torch light procession, big gun, war horse and eky rockets far into the shade. There has been no such sweeping Waterloo defeat since the hard cider times of 1840. The Wash- ington Unjon of Wednesday has not got the news. That respectable pablication finds some comfort in stating that the vote of last year was one hundred and ten thousand, and ap- pending to that the statement that they have only returns this year of sixty-eight thousand votes in one hundred and sixty-seven towns, Their comfort is that forty thousand voters staid at home, and that they will all come out in No- vember for Buchanan. They also hope that the official returns will reduce Hamlin’s majority; but, as the vote is a full one, and as Hamlin has beaten everything, even in the democratic Mala- koffe, we are afraid that there is no balm for the Union's \acerated feelings. Maine has gone, horse, foot and dragoons. The Fremonters are full of joy, as well they may be. The election in Maseachusetts two years ago, when Gardner swept the State, was an astonisher; but this is a crusher. Have you, O, magnates of the Custom House—have you heard the news from Maine? Tue Wearten axo tHe Yeurow Frver—- ‘We are happy to say that the yellow fever has subsided, and that there are but very few cases at Quarantine, Staten Island and Fort Hamil- ton. We are now having the last of the warm weather, and in a few days we shall be purified hy the rogular equinoctial storm. It is gratifying to know that the Philadelphia alarm- ists have failed in their endeavors ‘to turn the trade from New York, and that our city was never more prosperous, our merchants never more busy. The great book trade sales com- menced yesterday, and were attended by bun- dreds of booksellers from all parts of the Union, Other branches of trade have likewise taken a splendid start, and our hotels are crowded with country merchants buying their fall goods. We shal! bave a stirring autumn and a gay winter. Facts axp Prorsssions.—The old and effete democratic party retains, indeed, the name of “democratic,” and puts forth the professions of the principles which once gave it vitality ; but, in fact, it has departed from them all. Not only has it abandoned them all, but it is now at war with those principles which formerly gave the party both a name and an existence. This is not a pew nor a strange sight in the affairs of this world. We often see men who retain the name of men and of rational creatures, but who have ceased to act as men and as reasonable beings. We often see corporate bodies, established origi- nally on some special basis, gradually becoming the opponents and the enemies of the very basis and platform on which they were originally es- tablished. So it is with the present democratic party, led off by Pierce, Forney, Buchanan & Co. They talk of the rights of man; but they trample them under foot. They profess to assert the rights of a representative body; but when the majority of such a body acts upon those rights and claims, and proceeds to put them in force, they call them “traitors.” They profess to assert the equal rights of American citizens; but at the same time they employ the army to trample down the rights of one class of citizens in favor of another class. Never, perhaps, has there been seen in the history of the world a greater contradiction between ac- tions and professions than is at this present mo- ment exhibited by the so-called “democratic par- ty,” headed by Pierce, Jeff. Davis, Forney and Cushing. The time has arrived for men to open their eyes, and not to be deceived by names and professions. The American people generally have opened their eyes, and have abandoned a party which is no longer what it once was—which is the bitterest enemy now of the sacred principles of political right, which formerly it acted upon. We feel assured that the coming election will demon- strate the fact that the American people are wide awake, and that when tyranny, despotism, corruption and oppression assume to themselves the special name of “ democracy,”’ they will rush to the polls to give the most effectual condemna- tion to such false and hypocritical « democracy.” A Hearep Term rm Poxrmcs.—The heated term in the weather is about over—white” linen and patent leather will soon go into winter re- treate—but the heated term in politics has just commenced, and, without the aid of Philosopher Meriam, we can prophecy that it will last about seven weeks, The news from Maine—have they heard it at the Custom House?—has put new heart into the Fremonters, and they are holding mass meetings, barbecues, pic nics, &c., &c., all over the North. From the Aroostook to the Susquehanna—from Cape Cod to Oregon—no- thing is heard but Fremont. New Jersey and Pennsylvania are all alive with excitement, and every inch of ground is being canvassed and closely contested. There will be some fun be- tween this time and November. Clear the track!

Apart from the facts I have endeavored to set befor you, the endorsement by the representatives of the d mocratic party of the muroer of an inoffensive Irisha by a democrat; the language of its stardard bearer, that * political slavery could pot exist wherever the Englisty language is rpoken, its introduction of the slavery agi tion on account of its having repealed the Missouri prowise—the endesvors of %.
