Thus the statement which we meade on Tuesday night last, and published on Wed- mesday morning, based on the retarna received tha’ night, proves to have been strictly correct, com- pared with the latest despatches of yesterday. It was as follows We have four days later news from Europe, | 2- eeived by the steamship Baltic, which arrived at ‘this port yesterday morning. The intelligence i- o- teresting. An article which appeared in the Paris Moniicur, charging a portion of the English pr ss with pubhehing “ calumpies”™ on the French go- vernment, had aroused a very angry feeling in Lon- @on. The Moniteur having asserted that the a!i- ance between the two goverpments was endange -d by such effusions, it was said that the English c. .i- net would demand an explanation of the meaning of the paragraph from the Emperor. The English and French ministers had le(t Naples, but King Berdivand was still firm in his position, and no ac- tive demonstration having been made by the allied fleets,” it was still hoped that the difficulty wouid be settled by diplomatic explanations at the second @ongress which was about to assemble in Paris. France had officially stated her position in letters addressed to M. Brenier. The necessity for the re- opening of the peace conference was felt in every eabinet in Burope, for although six months had @lapeed since the treaty of Paris was signed, still tbe neutralization of the Black Sea hae not been effected, the Austrians hold possession of the Tark- ish principalities, and the Bessarabian frontier boundary remains undefined. in Constantinople the Turkish Ministry had resigned, and Lord de Redcliffe, the English Ambassador, was said to be wejoiced at the change. Spain remaioed tranquil but a violent reactionary movement was looked for daily. Lord Palmerston had paid a flying visit to the United States fiigate Merimac at Southampton. ‘The policy of the United States goverament with respect to the non-payment of the Stadt dues had excited much attention on the Continent of Europe The drain of specie to the Rast still continued, and the money markets, botn Paria and London, re mained very atringent.

In the Board of Superviscrs yesterday a number of unimportant bills and petitions for the remission of texes were received and referred to appropriate commi' tees. A resolation was offered and referred, an thorizing the Clerk of the Common Pleas to employ additional persons to arrenge the records of his office and restore mutilated docamente. Tn the Board of Aldermen last evening the stcret cleaning contract was taken up, and after some dis cussion shared its former fate.

The sales of cotton yesterday, under the influ- ence of the European news, embraced about 1,500 @ 1,500 bales. The market closed rather easier, without quotable change in prices. Flour was quite firm at Saturday's rates and more active, including sales of some lots for export. Wheat was more ac- tive, with large transactions, including lots for ex- port. The market closed at an advance of about 2 cents per bushel. Corn was also firmer, with ales of Western mixed at 69c. a 70c. Rye sold at 84c. a S5c. for Northern.

Buchanan’s Election—First Southern Manifesto—A New Consutation or Dis unlon—What will Mr. Buchanan Do! We transfer to the columns of the Heracp, this moraing, in ertenso, the first Southern manifesto upon Mr. Buchanan’s election, together with the introductory remarks of the Charleston Mercury. This manifesto is from that prince of secessionists, R. Barnwell Rhett, and the new programme which he lays down for the democratic party, and for the South, will be rather calculated to stagger the “ unterrified’’ of Tammany Hall. Mr. Rhett does not consider the election of Mr. Buchanan as affording any satisfactory guarantee to the South; he sees nothing but danger in the future, and he therefore proposes to strike at what be considers the root of the evil—the tariff and the Constitution of the United States. He suggests that the South stall demand a very low tariff, and such amendments of the Constitution as will secure their protection against Northern aggressions, and that if they are refused there shall be a Southern confederacy. What's to be done? This is a new proposition, and a very startling one; but it at least developes the rabid condition of mind of the ultra Southern leaders of the democratic party. Allowing that Mr. Buchanan cannot undertake this work of a new Constitution or a very low tariff, what is he to do %—and what may we reasonably expect at his hands? According to the Cincinnati platform, the Os tend manifesto, and the decrees of the controlling Southern wing of the democratic party, Mr. Buchanan will enter the White House in his do- mestic policy a pro-slavery border ruffian, and in bis foreiga policy a pro-slavery filibuster. In other words, his foreign and domestic policy will be resolved into the simple mission of the exten- sion of the area of slavery, within and without the United States, in defiance of internal and in- ternational law, in contempt of public opinion, and by the short method of the army and uavy and volunteer mercenaries. The Southern ultra wing of the party expect this, and will demand this; the Northern conservative democracy fear it, yet they hope for better things; while the op- position forces are resting upon their oars, en- tirely satisfied that, do what be may, Mr Buchanan must cheat the North or the South, and that, in either event, bis administration will give the finishing blow to bis expiring party. One of our city Fremout cotemporaries is quite certain that Mr, Buchanan will be dragooned into the rofian Kansas policy of poor Pierce, Atechisen & Co.—that however desiroas he may be to conciliate the North by those constitutional «nd law and order measures which would secure the admission into the Union of Kansas as a he will be compelled, from the pres- eure of his Southern managers, to pursue the opposite course of securing Kansas as a slave State, in the consummation of the despotic military policy of his predecessor. We are gcati- fled, however, to state, from sources of informa- tion entitled to respect, that Mr. Buchanan, ia re- ference to Kansas, is wholly disinctined to “hurry up” the completion of the demoralizing game of poor Pierce, Jeff. Davis and Atchison; bat that, on the other hand, the President clect may be expeeted to enforce that f od honest applica of the will of the lone rettlera in Kao- uder the conviction that this polley will re- into the Union as @ free Until better ad we set nan as having virtuelly deter- on & constitutional and conciliatory policy towards the North in reference to the ex- tension of slavery over free Territories within the limite of the Union. In regard to the foreign policy of filibustering conquests and annexations to strengthen the -lavebolding section of the Union against North- ern oggressions, we have as yet no whisper from Wheatland as to what may be expected. We presome, however, that the popular resalte of the late Presidential election will have entered deeply into the mind of Mr. Buchanan before he takes up his line of march to Washington; and that he will perceive readily enough that the bighwayman's policy of ““wresting the island of Cuba from Spain, if we have the power,” and that poor Pierce auxiliary filibustering scheme with Gen. Walker, are not the ticket for a quiet and respectable old bunker like Mr. Buchanan. We dare say that he will go to Washington, like General Taylor, with a sincere desire to live “at peace with all the world and the rest of mankind,” his ambition and filibustering propensities being amply satis- fied with the office to which all his political acts, epeeches, letters and manifestoes of the last forty years have been directed, with an eye ever taith- ful to the various appliances of the democratic nomination. In a word, having secured that important ob- ject of a life time of study and labor—the Presi- deney—and fully aware that a second term for him is whelly out of the qnestion, Mr. Buchanan, we believe, will enter upon the duties of his office resolved to get through with his four years as quietly as possible, and without running his head into the noose of Jefferson Davis or Mr. Rhett, or the trap of the Ostend manifesto, “ be the conse- quences to his party what they may.” This cory and comfortable programme for a qnict and reepectable admia'stration, adapted to the habits of a naturally good natured and pacific free Stat aay ult in ber admission aed, therefore, old = getitlemen, may possibly be euper- seded by a policy of flaming border ruffianiem at home and desperate bucca- neering abroad; or perhaps the new agitation of a very low tariff, and a new federal covstitation ceording to the plan forcehadowed by Mr. Rhett. We don't know, The best resolutions and the wisest designe of statesmen and soldiers are often overthrown by the mischievous interposition of bad advisers, We shall be enabled to form some definite opinion of the inclinations of Mr. Bu- chanan, and the prospects of his administration, It he shall appoint among his ministers any each ul- wa slavery propagandists and firecating dis union and Southern confederacy men as Henry A. Wise and Mason of Virginia; Toombs, Stidell, Buily Brooks, Jobnson of Georgia, Davis, aud R. Barnwell Rhett, we may at once pronounce the fate of Buchanan as the fate of Pierce, and the downfall of his administration as the fiaal destruction of the democratic party. Meantime, to Mr. Buchanan and al) that vast body of the frightened Northern democracy who have been fighting for “the Union as it is, and the Constitation as it is,” we tura over this new and startling project of Mr. Rhett, presenting the alternative of a new constitution for the protec- tion of the South, or disunion and a Southern confederacy. We shall have some excitement among the democracy on or about the fourth of March. The rule or ruin men of the party and of the country are first in the field. Oh! these niggers! these niggers! Are we never to have a moment's peace? We had thought the Union safe, for four years at least, with Mr. Bachanan’s election ; but lo and behold an immediate de- mand for a very low tariff, a new constitution, ora Southern confederacy! A new constitution! It bas come to thatat last. And it may soon euper- sede the Ostend manifesto and the Kansas iseue. Who knows? The Split Between the Monitear English Press. We publish elsewhere an article from the Paris Moniteur, reflecting on the course lately pursued by the English prese in reference to France, and the reply of the London Times. It seems that the Em- peror, who long since resorted tothe defensive mea- sure of excludiug the London journals from the French capital, finds that this precaution will not suffice, and desires to operate against them athome. It will be remembered that he did so once before, shortly after the coup d'état, and actually so far succeeded as to excite a good deal of animosity against the Times among the mercantile clasecs of England. We apprebend that he will not be as fortunate this time. Though the Morning Post has been directed to give a semi-approval to the course of the Monitewr, it stands alone in the press: the 7imes and the lower organs of opinion not only express no contrition, but indulge in re- flections marked by unusual severity with regard to the Emperor and his cabinet. Two truths are made plainly apparent by this business: the one, that the French government bas reached the point where factitious progress ceases and reaction begins; the other, that rail- roads, telegraphe and the other agents of rapid communication are rendering a despotic thraldom of speech and thought utterly impossible. All that the best friends of the Emperor urge on bis behalf is that he has improved Paris, stimulated trade and expenditure, carried a great war to a successful close, and maintained himself on the throne for a third of a generation. What little credit the last mentioned exploit reflects, is his due; but it must be remembered that no man of courage was ever overthrown by a revolution in Paris. The victims of revolution have all been poltroons or imbeciles. For the rest, Napo- Jeon the Third has achieved all his other claims to glory by discounting the future. He has con- stantly mortgaged years to come in order to diminish and conceal the necessities of the present time. His war, his expenditures at Paris, his extensive payments to keep down the price of bread, the magnificence of his court, have all been paid for on credit. When ordinary credit failed him, he resorted to extraordinary mea- sures. He stimulated a speculative fever; he licensed a Credit Mobilier; he gambled himself and led others to gamble on the Bourse. These means procured him what he wanted—money : but it was at a cost which it is frightful to con- template. The day for the redemption of some of these due bills on posterity is coming sooner than was expected: the bank threatens suspen- sion: money is five per cent a month; railroads, bankers, merchants are breaking: the whole edifice is menaced with precipitate quin. This is the turning point in the financial fettanes of the Emperor. Like Nick Biddle be is resorting to all kinds of desperate expedients to save himself ; but like that notorious financier, he does so with very little faith indeed in their efficacy. It is more gratifying to look at the other view of the caee—the one in which it illustrates the im- potency of despotisms to fetter thought, One would have supposed that the French govern- ment would have been able to despise journals published in a foreign country and in a foreign tongue. It seems not: it was found necessary to exclude not only the journals of London, but not unfrequently our own aswell. Buteven this tyran- nical measure docs not appear to meet the case. ‘The Moniteur calls for more protection. These Eag- lish newspapers, published abroad, in a languag, which not one Frenchman out of a thousand ca: 1ead, and strictly prohibited from entering France, are still ro powerful that the Emperor intimates Lis inability to govern his empire according to its best interests, if they are not silenced. This is the plain inference from the language of the Moniteur in reference to the alliance. Could there bea more ttartling proof of the incompe- tency of despotieme to crush truth’ We must, indeed, expect some folly in France at this time. That portion of the French people of which we hear in the papers, has never been remarkable for common sense. Just now all the leading men of France are involved more or less in these financial schemes which are on the eve and the of destruction : @ ['ttle delirium on their part is only what we must naturally expect Tur Unrren Staves Sexvronin We note that Mr. Horace Grecley, editor of the New York 7ritune, is declared | paper tobe not a candidate for the Seratorship to be vacated by Senator Fish. Also thet the /»/ime pronounces in favor of Preston King tor the vacant seat, Also that, on rrceipt he news of Fremont’s majority at Albany, Thurlow Weed resolved to ran himself, though, apparently, he had been party to an alleged arrangement by which Henry J. Raymond bed been promised the nomination in return for his keeping his name off the State ticket. All this is unnecessary talk, creating confusion: Thurlow Weed has no business to be Senator, any more than Forney, who, we see, is aiming for the office in Penneylvania. Both are mere politi- clans: (ditors as well, sometimes, but subcrdinat- ing ther duty to the public as editors to their duty to themselves and their political party as place bunters. Both are men who have injured the prese, by using it for improper purposes, Neither has any ides of a newspaper otherwise than ae a tender to rome politician, and a vehicle for lies, And as Forney has had little—in an honest way—'o do with the election of Buchanan, and therefore bes no claim on the Legislature of Pepneylvania, arising out of that election, so Weed hashad nothing of amy consequence to do with the formation and organization of the re- publican party, and deserves no greater favor at their hands than any other politician. As to Preston King, be is much better on the shelf, at the head of some harbor commission, than he would be in the Senate. We want some new blood; these old fogies, reeking of the Albany régime, will not do. We adhere to our original list ef five candi- dates, If our cotemporary the 7ribune is not aware that either Horace Greeley, or James Wat- son Webb, or Henry J. Raymond, er William C. Bryant would take the Senatorship, then it is very ill-informed; and we affectionately advise it to post iteelf at as early a day as convenient, As to Mr. Greeley declining, we shall see about that. If the Legislature decide to send him to Wash- ington, he will have no business to deeline, aud will not. There are people who think his affair with Rusk a reason why he should be sent at all hazards. At all events, one of the five must be chosen; the Senatorship belongs by right to the five jourpals which have raised. the republican party; to that the Legislature must make up its mind. Tuy OreRs—Ita Fortacomine History.—We are happy in being able to announce to our readers that the elegant, fashionable and civiliz- ing institution of Italian Opera has been re. established in our midst. The season announced by the La Grange or Stankovitch dynasty com- menced last night, the company being the same as that last organized by Max Maretzek, and the Opera being “Il Trovatore.” There wasa rich scene when the archestra bell rung for the over- ture, and when Max Maretzek’s friends, in great numbers, forced the popular conductor to be re- installed, Phalen and the directors notwith- standing. On the whole, the inauguration was propitious, and might lead to the belief that, notwithstanding the constant dissensions between artists, impresarios and directors, the Opera was bound to be a permanent institution in this metropolis. The inside and outside history of Opera in this country, since the first attempt to establish it, made by Garcia some thirty years ago, would be a most entertaining and interesting production It is known to but very few; and therefore the more novel and attractive would it be. We have becn from the commencement a spectator, and a very amused spectator, of the various phases of that history. It commenced in the midst of difficulties, squabbles and contentions, and its chequered existence ever since has been more or leas marked by storm and tempest. It was hoped that on the opening of the Academy of Music, Opera would have entered on anew era of peace, prosperity and progress; but those hopes have proved as fallacious as had all previous an- ticipations in that regard. We have had since the opening of the house in Irving place a suc- cession of squabbles between managers, artists and directors, not a whit leas ridiculous, absurd and virulent than those which had marked former times; but amid them all we have had occasional glimpes of operatic splendor and sunshine which inspired confidence that the storm would blow over and calm be restored. In view of the opening which there is just now for a “thirty years’ view” of Opera, we intend in a very few days to commence the publication of a very full and literal report of the famous I'ry libel case. It contains many funny reminiscencer, and particularly exhibits, in a most amusing and structive light, the style of management under one of the most interesting impresarios— Signor Fry—which was not properly p § sented to the public in the first tria', The publication which we promise is the report of the second trial ; and we have no doubt that it will be more attractive reading than any of the new novels of the day. It may even rise to equality in interest and importance with Cheva- lier Wikoff’s new book, developing the secret di- plomacy of France and England, and introducing the reader to behind-the curtain views of Louis Napoleon, Palmerston, Buchanan, Marcy, and v.her celebrities on both sides of the Atlantic. This publication of ours, which will be a per- fect and graphic representation of operatic ma- nagement, will also contain a great deal of im- portant information on the law of libel. It will be recollected that on the first trial of the Fry case, the jury, to the astonishment of every body, and with apparent recklessness, returned a verdict of 10,000 in favor of the mismanagement of the Opera, and against the liberty of the pross, and its right even to describe in a gra- phic ond accwate style the interesting pub- lic events that take place in the community. The second trial exhibited an improvement inthe tone of the public mind and in the common sense of that class of men from among whom jurors are elected. On that occasion the verdict was cut duwn to $6,000. But even that verdict was a monstrous anomaly in law and justice, aud in all legal precedents in regard to the liberty of the press. It was derided and laughed at even in England and France, where the laws are rigid toa proverb against any undue liberties being taken by newspapers with any public personages. We eball show on the publication of this report what the facts of the case were, and that these facts, as testified to, entirely justified, according to all laws and precedents, the statements which we made in relation to them. And yet, singular to relate, the law was in that case completely and ignorantly violated by the jury in returning such a verdict as they did. The case Is still be- fore the courts, and a new trial will probably be bad at afature day, which, under a more en- lightened siate of public opinion, will result in a verdict for the defendant, who, in all this contro- versy, merely represented the rights, privileges and independence of the press.

Already the political cauldron begins to boil. Hardly is the questios settled as to whether Mr. Buchaugn is elected or not, before these busy bodies, the outsiders, the expectante—thore who imagine that they havethe power to mabe or unmake Cabinet offloers—are busy forming the Cabinet of old Buch, Already, I say, are these per- sons circulating mere ramors as poritive facts as to who are to compose the Cabinet—who are to receive full miselont—who are to be turned out, and who are to be retained, Ovo, the avenue, around the hotels, in the de partments, are these stories circulated, and what is more, many poor deluded persons believe thom. ‘The latest report or rumor as to who are to compose Mr. Bochanan’s constitutional advisers, by these wise acres, those political soothaayera, is as follows:— Geners! Cass, whe has been overslaughed or turned out to die ip bis own State—politically I moan—is to be Se- cretary of State. Governor Toucy, another of the old fo- gy fossils, who bas boen left high and dry in bis own State—he must be taken care of—is to be Secretary of the Navy. Governor Wise, of Virginia, is to be Secretary of War. Colonel Richardson, who has just been defeated for Goverpor in Illinois, is to be, according to these wise men of the Fart—and they say that Douglas wi!l insist on it— Postmaster General. Howell Cobb, continue these wise me, is to be Secretary ofthe Treasury. Jesse D. Brigot, of Indiapa, Secretary of the Interior. Whois to be At torney General these wise men do not tell, and I suppose do not care, inasmuch as there is no patronage connect- <d with it. ‘This is tho Cabinet that these gentlemen have taken the trouble to arrange—sit up nights probably to accom- plish it for Mr. Buchanan; butthey are awfully wide of the mark, The Sta‘es that will get the Oabinet officers—and I bave it from high authority—and for the present ! will not mention the names of the men—are as follows: Virgi- nia—I will say, however, it will not be Mr. Wise—Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, and Connecticut. There are four other States in which 1 is not positively settled who are to have the other two appointments, as there are seven Cabinet officers, These States are Mississippi, Delaware, Now Jersey and Maryland. New York wil! not havea Cabinet officer; but the hards are to be we!) provided for. More on this subject hereafter. There sre various rumors afloat as to who Is to succeed Judge Nicholson as editor of the Union news- paper. The Judge has determined to rotire from it after the 4th of March next. He left for Tennessee yesterday, and will be absent until 1st December. He will then re- turn and remain until 4th March, when he will retire to private life. Rumor has it—and | know there is a move in that direction, but it will not succeed—that the editor of the Journal of Commerce will mount the tripod and wield the baitle axe, But I place no confidence in {t; for Mr. Buchanan long since intimated his preference for that posttien, incase he was successful, aud that man is Hon. Jobn Appleton, of Maine, who was with him while"he was Minister at the Court of St. James. There is one thing I know for certain, and that is that vobn W. Forney will not have his finger in the editorial pie, There are other ramors afloat, of which I will speak im my next, It appears from recent intelligence recetved from Eng- land, that the British Ministry do not exactly like the aspect and condition of things at Panama, and to that effect bave informed our government. They are fearful, judging of the report of Commissioner Corwine some week go, that our government contemplate following ou! ‘he suggestions centained in the report of that gentleman, f occupying the Isthmus of Panams with a strong fore: sufficient to protect the rights of American citizens in transit over that strip of country, Our government, I understand, have ©: come to any fixed determination as to what they will do. The instructions, however, of Mr. Corwine, our Con- sul at Panama, are clear and explicit; and if, in his judgment, anything should arire which would seem to demand it, @ government vessel will be sen} therr, and remain there, too, to protect American citizens a whatever hazard; and Secretary Marcy, I am fully per- sueded, will so inform our anxious cousins across the Atlantic, As to the Sound dues, Secretary Marcy will, before his term of office expires, if nothing bappens, bring about a speedy and amicable adjustment of that vexatious an troublesome question. Jt isthe old Premier’s intention to leave nothing unfinished which has been commenced ander this administration. Whether he will be success ful, and go ost of office on the 4th of March with a clean record, remains fo be seen. In despatch in the Hexatp a few days since, ‘& was stated that coews of the vessels of tbe wavy im the various squadrons were detained over thetr eniistments, which is three years, creating dis- satistaction among the sailors, making it difficult in con- sequence to supply the navy with seamen. As this might seem to reflect upon the head of the Navy Depart went, I have since learned that sufficient instructions bave been given to commanders of each squadron to despatch the vessels under their command in time to discharge the crews at the ¢xpirailon of their service. If, therefore, they bave been detained beyond the speci fied time of their enlistment, ft is not the fault of the Secr«tary, and entirely beyond bis control. ‘The officers have been aclected to convey the Resolute to ber Britannic Majesty, and orders lof hore yesterday Axing the time for ber to sail, which ts on Wednesday, ibe Lith inst, Judge Douglas is expected here about tho middie of next week.

It is my opinion that it is the intention of our government to allow their extradi- tion cr deportation to France. Perhaps the President may refer the question to the Atiorney General for his pinion.

We learn by @ telegraph despatch that this emineat statesman died om the 9th inst. at Dover, after a pro- tracted ilinees. Those who remmber him aa he was ia the prime of life and in unimpaired health have before them the picture of a man of mastive frame, with a cor- responding intellect. Majestic in appearance, amiable in manners, and eloquent in conversation, he attracted the admiration of a large circle of friends, and stood high In the estimation of the public, with whom such quailtios are always populer, He was bred to the profession of the law, in which ho early attained » high rank, In politics he took sides with the federal party, and remained with it watil it ceasei to exist. In 1829 he was elected to the Senate of the United ‘States, and again in 1856. He resigned his seat in 1837 ‘m consequence of being instructed by the Lagisiature of Delaware to vote for the expunging resolutions of Col. Benton. In the debate which attended their introduction he declared he would not hold his seat if they were adopted, and hoped not to survive the day of their con- femmation. Upon this intimation it was that he waa Jorthwith instructed, and be was necessarily compelled to resign, In 1841 be was Bir. Clay’s candidate for the office of Secretary of State under Gen. Harrison, but was overshadowed by the influence Mr, Webster’ friends, although be had oryinally expressed bie doubts of the General’s Gtness for the office of President.
