Our Washington despatch an- mounces that the Spanish Minister has received intel- ligence from his government to the effect that the expedition which has been fitting out to operate egainst Vera Cruz will not proceed to its destination. A more intelligent understanding of the question in dispute between the two governments, togethag with the friendly interposition of Franee and England, have led to this result. An extgact from the Span- ish organ in this city, whieh we publish elsewhere, eonfirms this important news The enterprising parties in New Orleans and New York who have Deen +o hopefully awaiting gbe commencement of host'/ities, will now turn their faces to other fields, and perbaps Central America may receive a #hare of their attention. In connection with the additional Nicaraguan news published in to-day’s Heraip, we would div Fect the attention of our readers to the statement ef Captain Farnbam, in eegard to the difficulty in which he wos engaged at Greytown on the Sd of March last, and an incorrect acconnt of which ap- persed in the Henaxp of the 2ist of the same month. It will be seen from this that Colonel Hall ‘was not in Greytown at the time, but was on board ef the English vessel of war Cossack. Both Capt. Farnum and Colonel Hail were unable to obtain a passage up the river so as to reach their command, and under the circumstances considered that they eould be of more service to the Nicaraguan cause by retusning to New York than they could be by pemainirg at Greytown. The steamship Cahawba arrived last night from Hevana with dates to the 29th alt. There is no political news. Business remained much the same 6 at previous advices. By an arrival at New Orleans we have news from Vers Croz to the 20th ult. The government had m=pended payments at the Custom Houses at Vera Cruz and the City of Mexico. The new constitution ‘was promulgated on the 11th alt. Gen. Blancarte was in prison at Guadalajara, and would be tried by court martial. We call attention to the very iuteresting letter of eur Washington correspondent, given on onr first page to-day, detailing the plan of Governer Walker for the pacification of Kansas, The plan has the @oncurrence of the President and Cabinet, who feel sonfident that Governor W. will succeed in peace- fully adjusting the difficulties that have hitherto @etracted that Territory. Teas were again active yesterday, and besides a podlic sale which went off with spirit and at fall prices, about 6,000 half cheste of Oolongs (black) were made at private sale, closing at an advance of about three cents per pound. A Special Aldermanic Committee on Stages met yesterday. The proposition before the committee ie to stop part of the omnibuses that run in Broad way, at the Park, during busines hours, #0 as to relieve Broadway below the Park. The proprietors of the Bowery end Houston street and the East Broadway lines of stages were present and opposed the scheme. Considerable cqmversation occurred between the committee and these parties, tmt nothing of importance was elicited, nor any de- cision come to. Hon. Malione Watson, of Catskill, one of the Judges of the Supreme Court of this State, died in New Orleans on the Ist inst. The Legislature had recently made some inquiry in regard to the habits of Jndge Watson, and sufficient against him had been ascertained to warrant the serving upom him of & notice to show cause why he should not be im- peached. A committee of the. Board of Supervisors on civil courte met yesterday to consider a petition and Dill presented to the Board by Judge Meech. On the 2st of August, 1861, the Judge, in his official eapactty, committed John Champlin to the Eldridge street jail. After hie discharge from prison Mr, Champlin institated a suit agains! the petitioner for false imprisonment, and obtained a jodg- ment osgainst Him of $496 16 and costa. Mr. Carpentier and the Hon. James R. Whiting, neel for the petitioner during the case, eu ‘or “he rervices, making a total ny ' . ‘ _| NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, APRIL 4, 1857. $146 16, whieh amount the petitioner wishes the city to pay. The case eccarred four years age, 20 ‘tbere was some question why the bills had not been tettled before. The committee will report their de- cision to the Board at an early day. ‘The cotton market was active yesterday, and the sales footed up about 6,008 bales, a large portion ef which was tm transit. The transactions were besed upon mi idling oplands at about 14\<c., and middling New Orleans at 14560., closing firm wt quotations. A private despatch, the market. Corn was in good at 700. @ 720.; and old white do. at 780 a 160, Pork was were frm and im good demand with free sales, which footed up about 2 000 bhds. and 2,000 boxes Havana, at prices given im another cotumn, Messrs. Stuart’s prices for refined sugars are given in another place. Coffee was steady, but quiet. Freights were casier for corn to Liverpool, while other articles were unchanged, with a fair amount of engagements. ‘What are the Untted States to do with China? The question to what extent this country is to take part in the pending troubles in China is one which has exereised the attention of the Cabinet to a very marked extent during the past week, without arriving at any particular solution. It is understood that Great Britain and Franee desire us to join in a species of tripartite treaty with them for the prosecution of a general indictment against the Chinese for unhandsome behavior to foreigners generally, and systematic hindrance of commerce and civilization. But to do this conflicts directly with the traditional policy of the republic which warns us against such al- liances with foreign Powers; if we yield to the requests of the allies, it must be under a pressure of new and extraordinary circumstances, and in view of new and very palpable advantages to be gained. Whether a case has been made out, set- ting forth these new and extraordinary gains and circumstances, the public of this country are not yet informed. ‘The case affords a new and striking illustration of the advantage of a good character. Were the past records of British power in Asia as clear and spotless as they might be, the feeling of this country in favor of coercing China would be so strong that no administration could resist it. Unfortunately, a general impression prevails that the prime motive of British policy in the East has invariably been self-interest; and that this has been gratified at any sacrifice of justice, truth, right, reason and ha- manity. Hence a pretty general desire for further and more unprejudiced information trom China before we allow the English to tow as into a war at their skirts. The American people have no notion of going te war with the Chinese merely in order to add power or revenue or territory to the East India Company; and while they see with anger the conduet of the populace of Canton, and with indignation the narrow minded antipathy to foreigners and to foreign civilization displayed by the government ot Pekin, and the Chinese nation generally, they desire, before they go out of their way to act upon these premises, to know precisely what the Chinese mean, what they iatend, and what are the intentions of Great Britain or the East India Company in the event of a general humiliation of China in the war now commencing. If the pending war is to be prosecuted until the Chinese government consents to legalise the traffic in ypium, so that the Honorable East India Com- vany eball realise not five bat fifty millions ster- ling per annum for*destroying the souls and bodies of the people of the Chinese empire, then it is the mind of the people of the United States that they will not have hand or part in tha’ war. Or if it be the design of the British government to prosecute the war with a view to treat this or that Chinese province os the gover - ment of India treated the kingdom of Oude only last year, in that case also, the American people would have no wish to participate in the con- test. Nor could the government of this country take an active part in the fray unless affronts had been offered to citizens of the United States, or their rights assailed in some clear and uapro- yoked manner. We could not fight the Chinese to avenge the wrongs of Englishmen. On this basis, then, has the Chinese question been discussed by the Cabinet; by the next mail, Lord Napier and M. de Sartiges will probably be able to rend to their respective governments some authentic intimation of the course which the United States may deem fit to pursue. ‘They may rest ageured that, whatever be the result of the pending deliberations, the concla- sion arrived at will be predicated on reasons of American policy, without reference to foreign governments. A story has been got up in refe- rence te Russian interference in China, and to the active part taken by Mr. Stoeckl, the new Russian Minister, in order to defeat the endea- vors of Lord Napier and M. de Sartigea We suspect that Mr. Stoeckl finds his time so fally occupied with his own business that he meddles bat little with other people's: and we douvt much whether Russia will put herself much out of the way to sustain a government frem which ehe bas never received any kindnes:, which can never be of the least use to her, aud which she could not save from destruction if sne put her whole soul in the work. These tales are the fic tion of every day life. It may likewise be assumed, as a point estab- lished, that whatever course the administration resolves to pureue, no participation with the ma- ritime Powers could under any circumstances take place before the meeting ot Congress. The declaration and making of war is a matter re- eerved to Congress by the constitution ; the Exe- cutive can only defend the life and property of citizens. If these are attacked, Mr. Buchanan will protect them; he can send a first class man with a large fleet to the China seas; but for any- thing more, o ur European friends must wait tll ecember, Rapicat Revowerion ox tax Crry Govery- ¥Nt.—The new charter for this city has passed the Assembly, with the Metropolitan Police bill, and we suppose all the other bills, embracing an entire revolution in the municipal government and comprehending the expenditure for the next two years of twenty-five or thirty millions of dollars, We expect very little improvement in our municipal government from these proceedings. They seem to have sprung entirely from some cliques and coterie of corrupt politicians, of whom Matteson, Gilbert & Co. were epecimen bricks at Washington. During the present year the taxes extracted from the people ef this city will amount to nearly eight millions of collars. Under the auspices of the new metropolitan system, as it is called, embracing the half dozen bills now fn progress throvgh the Aesemly, it is very probible that our taxes will come up to tem, twelve or fifteen millions, with dirtier streeta, a worse police, @ meaner government, and alll the ills that can be expected trom such ravenous politicians a2 lave now the management of our affairs at Aldany. Prepare for the worst. Whe Late Nicaragua News—Walker Upper~ most Again. ‘The late terrible defeate ef the Central Ameri- can allies near Rivas, by Watker and Henningsen, unless greatly exaggerated, have put an entirely new face upon the Nicaragua war. That the news received is substantially true we have reason to believe, because we had some inklings of it ten days ago, and because within the last week we have heard various reports from intelligent sources of a suppression here of certain important letters, by parties whose inte- rests and sympathies are against Walker. It must also be remembered that the rifles and im- proved muskets and howitzers with which Walker had been furnished by George Law, are of a far superior kind in deadly execution to anything in use by the Costa Ricans—a fact which will goa jong way to account for the wholesale slaughter of the allies on the one hand, and the trifling casualties sustained by Walker’s forces on the other. This disparity, we doubt not, is largely due to the vastly superior range of Walker’s «mall arms, a most terrible advantage in Open field operations of the character of these last battles. Assuming, therefore, that this last news is sub- stantially true, we may regard it as the turning point in Walker’s fortunes, which is to carry him forward to complete success. The next intelligenee will probably be the re-opening of the route of the San Juan river to the lake by Lockridge, the reduction of the fort Castillo at the outlet of the lake, and a junction with Walker on the opposite side of the lake. Should the Transit route thus be re-opened again, there will not be men and means enough among the allied Central American States to recapture it; and their treaty for the partition of Nicara- gua and the profits of the Transit route among themeetves will be superseded by an effective Anglo-Saxon occupation under George Law and Walker. Let it be known that Walker is victo- rious and rapidly recovering his lost ground, and he will speedily be reinforced by any num- ber of volunteers from the United States, and with the most destructive implements and en- gines of war in any quantity. So far, therefore, from the case of Walker being a hopeless one, he appears to be again in a position for the re-arrangement of his plans, not only for the permanent occupation of Nicaragua, but for the reduction, at his convenience, of all the surrounding hostile States, and their annexa- tion to his dominions. Walker thus looms up again into bold and high relief; and the tactics and the diplomacy of all our other steamship captains and commodores are eclipsed by the more active rifles, muskets and artillery of George Law, and his adopted fighting agents, Walker and Henningsen. George Law may be President yet—that is, President of the Nicara- guan route; and Walker may yet realize his gorgeous vision of a great Anglo-American con- federacy in the tropics, “based upon military principles,” and including not only the whole of Central America, but a great part of Mexico and the “ever faithful island of Cuba.” This late news no doubt will create a senaa- tion in London, and has probably already entered into the conversations of our Cabinet at Wash- ingten. Should the reports of these late battles be confirmed, and other Walker victories be added to the intelligence, by our next steamer from San Juan, then we may at least conclude that it is all up with Vanderbilt, Morgan, Garri- sou & Co, and that George Law and his mus- kets hold the steamboet balance of power in Ni- caragua and in Wall street.

The Union of this morning publishes the correspon- dence between Lords Napier and Clarendon and Seoretary Cass relative to the rescue of a greater part of the crew ofthe British bark Tasso, which was wrecked at Barne- aut, by the crew of the American life boat. Mr. Fowler, the acting Vice Consul at New York, bas been instructet to convey to the widow of John Jones, one of the Amer!- can boatmen who perished, donation of ify pounds an a mark of the sympathy of the British government. A wubscriptjon has also resulted in the collection of a sum sufficient to purchase ® small house and farm for Mrs. Jones, Mr. Fowler is also making inquiries respecting the relatives of Johm Parker and another boatman, who lost their tives at the time, and in reference to the rest ofthe Doatmen who shared their danger. Lord Oiarcn don has instructed Lora Napier to express in the warmest terms the thanks of the British government for the ‘imely assistance rendered, and thetr admairation of tho courage and devotion of the American bosumen. Gen Cass in a letter to Lord Napier says:—‘'I' is always» source of gratification to this government when citizens of the United States are instramental in rescuing inc! viduals, especially citizens or subjects of foreign countrics, from tbe perils of the sea; and the manifestation of sym pathy and graytude on the part of ber hejmmy’s govern. tent in this instance is justly appreciated by the Prosi dent.” ‘The Inielligencer this morning publishes a card from Mr. Howard, the reporter of the Supreme Coart, stating ‘tbat a volume containing the decisions in the Dred Scott case will be published im three weeks.
