‘ ~THE NEW YORK HERALD. WHOLE NO. 7423, ARRIVAL OF THE BALTIC. “Formation of the Sub-Mfarine Tele- graph Company. Lnropean Views of Mr. Buchanan's Election, and the Position of Affairs in Central America, Mt. &., ko. The Collins mail steamship Baltic, Captain Com- #tock, from Liverpool ut 9 o’cl ick morning of Wed needay, December 10, arrived at this port early yesterday morning. Among the passengers by the Baltic are Cyrus W. Field, Esq., and family. Mr. Field has been com- pletely successful in every respect in relation to the Atlantic telegraph. The manufacture ef the cable is being rapidly proc-eded with, and Mr. Field has with bim a sample, which will, no doubt, by viewed with interest. The Canadian mail steamebip Canadian, from Quebec, arrived at Liverpovl at 8} o'clock evening of Sunday, the 7th. The Cunard mail steamship Europa, from New York, arrived at Liverpool at 10 o’clock morning of Monday, the Sth inatant. The United States frigate Merimac left Lisbon for Cadiz on the 4th instant. The Gazette de France, of December 8, examines the effects of the abolition of privateering and the tendencies, the doctrines a 2 the various interests of England and the United States concerning that question. It isthe opinion of the writer that the ‘suppression of privateers would be entirely to the advantage of England an to the prejudice of the United States, as the latter have but a very limited navy, and the former the most powerful that ever was on the seas. Commercial letters from Paris state that owing tothe recent reduction of the rate of exchange by the India company and the consequent decline in she price of silver, there is no longer any profit in sending five franc pieces from France, a circum- stance which has increased the tendency to a revival of confidence. The Paris Moniteur publishes a report from the Governor General of Algeria, announcing a success- ful expedition against the Hamian tribes, anda skirmish with the troops on the Morocco frontier. The Peniasular and Oriental Steamship Company had declared # dividend equal to twelve per cent per annum. On the 2d instant a treaty was signed at Bayonne between the Plenipotentiaries of France and Spain, settling the frontier line between the two coun- tries. A despatch from Marsetiles of 9th instant says the arrivals of corn at that port have been immense, and yet further supplies are expected from Constan. The Gange has arrived. She left the Turkish capi- tal December 1. The reopening of the Paris Confe- rence was known there, snd it is probable that Aali Pacha will return to Paris and supersede for a short ‘time Diem Bay. It is preteaded by} the Greek party that Rassia is to have an indemnity for Bol- grad. Reechid Pacha’s ministry is consolidating itself. ‘ ‘The correspondent of the Manchester Guardian, ia Naples, writing on 1st instant, cays :-— ber, when ove of them st with a block of wood. fresturing bis feared, and leaving bim in « state of insenail ed from vessel Minister, , under the impreesion that the offender was an american citizen, and the {lo is pow under arrest.

Some politicians have been seeking to make a good deal of the matter by attributing to it Mportence as a fact of significance. ‘The news reaching us from America has set us Bpeculating with you as to the course Buchanan will adept. You will find many of our newspapers full wf these speculations; therefore I will not trouble you by a repetition of them. In private society I find people inclining to the opinion that the new President will bid freely for popularity on entering office, and perhaps not tarn out quite so bad as muany anticipate, I see the New York correspondent to the Times States positively that Bachanan will not take up Mr. | the consequences of the late war—auother opportu: Corwine’s recommendation regarding the Isthmus of Panama. The Zimes’ correapondent may be cor- rect in this statement, but 1 think you will be dis- posed to doubt this gentleman’s accuracy. Of course people here sre very glad to hear that the new President is so pacific. However, time will tell. After all the doubis aud the many reports to the contrary we are really to have a new Paris Con- gress. Russia is to buve another chaace of evading nity of gett'ng rid ot all that is disagreeable to he in the lute treaty. When it was firet hinted tha there would be a new Congress people were mac aarmed, but this feeliog was hus! by @ contra diction. Now, however, the uneasiness is agais prevalent, and marmurs are everywhere heard. A the talk bere now is on foreign affairs. At n> period of ow bistory can [ imagine Kaglishweo t bave been so wbsorbed in foreiga politic as at this moment. Lord Palmerston pur sues his wey with the most serene quictude, and nobody knows what he is or wher: he is driving to. ‘The feeling of the people on th: present system of secret ciplomucy is becoming every day more aud more strongly ex] or ex bibited, and there ia seme yrospect of a movemea in this country on this very a subject, which will eG ministers to yield to the pressure. Mr. Cobden has spoken out onthe matter, and miny newspapers have taken up arguments all bearing aunst monstious system. The assertion of the imes that the foreign policy of land was one “emanating from the nati will & representa- tion of the national feeling,” seems to have aroused into a determination to disprove its words and claim the privilege the T¥mee so sudaciously as- serted was in their possession.

Politicians now say that it is not tue, but tbat Lord John Raseell is occupied upon a comprehensive scheme while sojourning in Italy. You will see that there has peen some talk of Frei Lord John into the House of Lords, 9) as to leave the Commons clear for the Premier. This would be very clever, but it will never come to pass; at ali events, Lord Paimerston qill not effect this higbly desirable object. There is an ancient rivalry between these statesmen, and I am much mistaken if Lord John will slink away from the fiel 1 of contest. Then comes the question as to what can be done with his lordship?

Yesterday being Sanday, the Dies faustus of all countries who profess the Roman Catholic religion, and the weather of that extraordinary beauty which in December recalls to mind the oasis of the desert, all Paris, from the monarch to the meanest ouvrier, by a sort of unanimous impulse, surged to the west —in plain English, went a junketting to the Bois de Boulogne. The frost which, when I last wrote, had covered the earth with its crystals, and gave a Nor- ‘wegian aepect to the belts of fir, the verdant slopes and large sheets of water, which constitute the promi- nent features of that delicions retreat, had began to digsolve ere the ink waa dry which speculated on its permanence; and the rain that fell subsequently, with a temperatare worthy of a July sunset, 90 com- pletely washed every vestige of it away that yester- day this charming landscape, which has #0 recently emerged from the hand of art, looked now as if anti cipating the immediate opening of spring, was pre paring to array itself in all the joyous drapery of bud and blossom dnd carly leaf, than as if resigning it- elf to the cold shade and bitter blast of a winter which, like @ giant refreshed, bad only jost risen from his annual sleep, and will no doubt, ere he slumbers again, visit all, both young and old, in ani- mal as well as vegetable life, with the usual charac- teristica of bis ruthless violence. ‘The scene was one of unusual gayety. The sandy soil of this country is almost as impervious to mois- ture as oil to water; and the roads and paths of the Bois de Boulogne have been so skilfully drained, levelled and sloped that the previous irriga- tion which the snow and rain had applied, only rendered them more velve'y and dust like to the feet of the thovrands and tens of thouwands of BAY pedestrians, who, in that tastetnl holiday garb wepapers per ond \, Will | which in Paris can only be seen, thronged to parti cipate in this woodland revel. As for equipsges bey were 80 numerous, so varied, 80 packed to their last inch of capacity, that it was difficult to believe that an embargo had not been levied on every one in Paris; and, at te same oe vas im bis to revent @ certuin feeling o: justice suggesting Tieelt when one remembered how obstinat the owners of these Juxunes, for whom such delic ons roads bud been created and such wi! of laud- scape evoked, had refused in the it of the States’ tinancis! difficulties to contribute a frac’ioa towards their hquidwtion.

The injustice of it in England is this, that the Legislature has made no difference between country ana town vebicles. Now the latter are almost invariable otjects of Juxury, which the owners might dispense with were they #0 miad.d; while the former, with @ sparse ation au points of communication many apart, are simply objects of necessity, to tax which is pure hardship. This, it is understood, the French Chan- cellor of the Exchequer desires to avoid, and he limits his impost to the tows. It appears, how- Cver, that the town, as yet, is not able to acqaice ein bis financial views.

Altogether the thing was got up with a considera- able view to effect, aud certainly created an immeuse imterest in the Bois de Boulogne.
