The news is The election agitation absorbed public attention in England, and it is reported that appearances indicated that Lord Palmerston would be sustained by the Popular | voice. Austria has suspended diplomatic inter. | course with Sardinia, fearing the revolutionary ten- | Gencies of the liberal policy of the last named gov- ernment. From Spain we learn that the first divi- | tion of the expedition intended to operate against | Mexico would sail for Havana on the 26th ult. | ‘The Spanich government intend suthoriziog a line of submarine telegraph to connect Cubs with the | United States. | ‘There is news from China to the effect that the Emperor disapproved of the course of the Governor of Canton, and had ordered him to conciliate the English. ] Brief particulars are given of the Hnglish demon- | stration at Japan.

The Legislature daring the past forty-eight hours have acted on several measures of great importance. The Senate has passed The New York City Charter bill. The Exterior Harbor Line bill. The Port Wardens bill. ‘The District Courts bill. ‘The Metropolitan Police bill has passed to a third reading. A bill was yesterday introduced in the Benate providing for the election of police and civil court justices on the same as the charter elec- tion. The bil paying the Commissioners of Emi- gration thirty thousand dollars also passed the Se- bate. The Aseembly yesterday passed the the Port War- dens bill, and the bill authorizing a railroad through Beventh avenue, Broadway, Greene street, &c. The latter, which is gotten up under the plea of relieving Broadway, passed by a vote of eighty-one to seven- teen. A report reversing the recent decision of the Bo Court in the United States case, accompa- by reeolutions condemning that decision, anda bill in effect nullifying it, were presented in the Assembly. The bill was referred to the Com mittee of the whole. ‘The proceedings of the Board of Aldermen last night are important. Remonstrances against the passage by the Legislature of the Broadway Re- lief Raliroad, Harbor Line, City Charter and Po Lice billa, were adopted. The Board non-concurred | with the Councilmen on the resolution increasing the pay of mombers from foar to eight dollars per diem. The committee having the mubject in charge reported in favor of a new edifice for a City Hall. ‘The Board of Supervisors met yesterday. The Coroners’ bills, amounting to $3,394, were referred.

The evidence against them was remarkab:y and Judge Russell sent each of them to the State prison for five years. He said that merchants eould not place any confidence in locks and bars, and he was determined to punish burglars to the utmost extent of the law. The Court adjourned till Saturday morning. The investigation into the charges agains; Coroner Connery was contiaued be- fore Judge Daly yesterday. Dr. David Uhl was the only witness examined. His testimony was with a view to show that he was the family physician of Mrs. Cunningham, and that on the 9th of February last he was denied admission to her by Coroner Con- Bery. Most of the three hours session was con- sumed by the objections of counsel. The case was adjourned until Saturday morning. This being Good Friday, there will be no business twansacted in the law courts, ‘The sales of cotton yesterday embraced about 3,000 Dake, about 2,000 of which wore in trasat.u, at full pri- ces. Cottom in store was very Grmly bold, while there seems seme more disposition msni‘ested to sell in tran alia. Flour of the bigher grades was in good looal and Eastern dcmaad, and prices umebanged, while inferior Drands were culiandcasier.

The whole movement which originated | the bill was corrupt and insidious from its very | inception, the great object of those engaged in it being to increase their own gains by an increased expenditure of the public moneys, It was, in fact, a coalition of republicans, democrats and Know Nothings, having this improper purpose in view, and the success which they have achieved | shows with what wonderful unanimity they have | worked. The Departments of Repairs and Supplies and Streets and Lamps have been abolished, but the general business of both will here- after be transacted by the Street Commiasioner, who is one of the principal parties in this piece of official scheming, and who will be one of the greatest gainers by it, The expenses of his de- partment will, it may be expected, amount here- after to between two and three millions a year, which will be divided among Know Nothings, democrats and republicans, in proportion to the services rendered by each in securing the passage of the new charter. It should be particularly noted that while this officer is allowed to serve out the full term for which he was elected, the Mayor, who has yet more than « year and a-half to serve, will be deposed from that office, in which he was placed by a large popular vote, before he shall have entered on the second year of his ad- ministration, as the election for Mayor, Alder- men and Councilmen takes place on the second Tueeday ot December next. The Comptroller, whose powers and authority remain untouched, whose department is charged with the collection of ali the taxes and revenues ot the city government, and without whose con- sent not a dollar can be paid out of the city treasury, has not been disturbed, and will remain in posecesion of his office and emoluments for the full period for which he has been elected. Here, then, we have a grand coalition of the most corrupt politicians of the three parties for the purpore of continuing in power those who are favorable to their designs and of removing all who would not become parties to them. The result must be that we will have the most extrava- gant, the most corrupt and the most inefficient government that we have had yet, with an in- crease of our taxes from seven to ten or eleven millions of dollars a year, an utterly useless po- lice, and a gang of public officials whose sole object is the plunder of the public treasury. ‘The Kansas Question—The New Movement of Land Speculating Companies. It is very extensively believed that the late arrangements of the pro-tlavery Legislature of Kaneas will result, before the eummer is over, in the adoption of a slave State constitution. It is also feared in some quarters that, asthe action by the convention to be elected in June is to be final, according to the plan of the late Legisla- ture, that the fate of Kansas is fixed, and that her destiny as a elave State is beyond any immediate remedy. Bat there are other elements and causes at work in Kansas more powerful than pro-slavery Legislatures or border ruffian candidates for the United States Senate. We undertake to say that the Kansas emigrant aid societies and stockjob- bing land operators and speculators will settle the question in favor of Kansas as a free State, even should the pro-slavery party succeed in the com- plete fulfilment of their plans for a slave State State constitution. It is understood that the free State party of Kansas intend neither to participate in nor to recognise, in any shape or form, these pro-slavery proceedings. On the contrary, the free State settlers intend to have their own inde- pendent election and convention, as if no such | thing as the late Kansas Legislatare and ite ¢leo- was a good supply notwithstanding. The Honse of Assembly had effered a bonus of £2,000 per annom | for five years for the promotion of steam communica | tion between Nassau and New York. The projest | of the West India and North and South American (Submarine) Telegraph Company was recommende! | by the executive. The military corps of the island wore to be placed under better regulations, Mr Bailey, the new Governor was, expected to jand by the 10th inst. We have additional files from Bermnda to the 31st ult. Admiral Fanshawe had embarked on board the Boscawen, bis fing ship, for Englani. The | Bpanieh war steamer Don Antonio de Ulloa, from Havana, arrived at St. Georges, and having receiv. ed coal from the depot lately established there, left for Cad.

The frontier was peaceful. Natal | papers to the 17th of Jannary represent the commo- | tion among the Zulus as nearly over. The rebellious young chief Ketchwaya, deserted by the great body of his followers, had fled or retreated to some place near Bt. Lacia’s Bay. Pand, the old King, is rein, fated in power. In the Court of Sessions yesterday John Neafie and Charles Miller, two young men, were tried and convicted of burglary in the third degree, in break- tion laws had ever existed. Now let the proslavery party hold their eleo- tion, call together their State convention, adopt | 4 tlave State constitution unanimously, and con- clude that it is not necemary to submit their work to the ratification of the people of the Ter- ritory—what will follow? They will submit their constitution to Congress; the free State party at the same time will submit theirs, and both will be referred back to the people; or, at | best, should Congrees accept the pro-slavery con- stitution as the genuine one, it will still (in view of the counter-proceedings of the free State party) have to go back for the ratification, bona Jide, of the people of the Territory, before the Northern democrats of either house will dare vote | Kaneas into the Union as a sovereign State. We may conclude, then, that Kansas will not be admitted Into the Union at the next session of Congress, In the meantime, the spring emigra- tion from the North, which is pouring into the | Territory, has given an impetus to town lot and | land Fpeculations which overshadows niggers, | border ruffians, and everything elec. The New York State Kansas Emigration Company, lately organized at Auburn, will probably throw into the | summer, and numerous other companies of this sort may shortly be expected te take the field from most of the northern States, The consequence must be that by December, the bulk of the free State local population of Kansas will be so great as to overwhelm in any popular movement, the dispoeable border ruffian Missouri force of thirty- five hundred mea. So, too, by December, the mass of the Kansas settlers and the epeculators in her lands, city sites, town plots, factory seats, &c., whether such speculators may be pro-slavery or no-slavery, will be in favor of Kansas asa free State, according to the pressure of fifty or seventy-five per cent discount pro-slavery, and one, two, three, four or five hundred per cent profit, no-slavery, on the same town lot. Thus the pocket argument of the landjobbers and real estate owners of Kansas will make her afree State. Nor will this new and powerful element of Northern joint stock colonization and Jand speculation companies stop with Kansas. Before ten years shall have elapsed, these waste land homestead companies will very likely revo- lutionize public sentiment in all the present northern border slave States, But the field here opening before us is rich in itsmaterials; we have numerous vouchers at hand of & most remarka- ble character; and we ehall recur to the general subject again and yet again. Let it suffice for the present, that the question of the price of lands and town lots in Kansas, pro-slavery or no-slave- ry, will inevitably make Kansas a free State. Tue Great SupMaRiwe CaBLe—Tae Coumer- CIAL INTERESTS OF THE WORLD IN A ConyecticuT Pepper's Port or View.—The refusal of the Secretary of the Navy, Mr. Touoey, to comply with the request which we made, that a reporter should be permitted to go on board each of the vessels that are to be employed in laying down | the great submarine telegraphic cable between the Old World and the New, has become a sub- ject of general comment and surprise. Ia our application we stated that the gentlemen sent on the expedition would place themselves under the control of the rules and regulations in force in the United States naval service, and that all their wardroom charges and other expenses would be paid; but Mr. Toucey, overlooking the fact that this is an enterprize in which the whele commer- cial community and the country at large have a peculiar interest, has narrowed the question down to a matter of convenience, and on that ground will not grant the application. In his re- ply, dated April 4, he says it is “incon- venient to the service to have passengers on board vessels of war,” and this, too, in face of the fact that several persons who have had no connection whatever with the navy have been allowed at various times the privilege which Mr. Toucey in this instance has refused. Newspaper correepondents were on board the vessels engaged in the expedition to Japan, and the Times and other English papershad not only represents- tives in the campof the British army daring the slege of Sebastopol, but they were allowed regu- lar rations. And there was not s General in the American service during the Mexican war one of whose aid-de-camps was not a correspondent. for some paper in the United States. The pretext, also, upon which he bases his refusal is so flimsy and shallow that it will not bear even a moment’s inspection. The request was in every way proper —a request which, under the circumstances, no statesman of enlarged and liberal views would have denied. ‘The course which the Secretary of the Navy has thought fit to pursue in this matter, and the contrast which his conduct presents to that of the English Board of Admiralty under similar cir- cumstances, is particularly deserving of atteation. In the great British naval review which took place at Spithead, April, 1856, a vessel of war was placed at the service of the press, as will be seen from the following arrangements which were made for their accommodation, the officials of government and distinguished visiters:— To Whom 4ppro’ated.

Ad & "s. Prometh to Halt pay olson. do. 40. | But this is not all. The Duke of W | one of the largest ships in the British Navy, and other veesels engaged in the review, had visiters on board. What does Mr. Toncey think of the “inconvenience to the service” which these muet have caused! There is another consideration which must not, however, be lost sight of here. The vessels which bave been appointed from our navy—the Merrimac and Niagara—are to be employed in s very different service from that for which they were constructed. They will be engaged in laying the great submarine cable, and the better to qualify them for this work their guns will be removed, their captains will act under the orders of the Telegraph Company, and even the “rules of the department” will be made to a certain ox- tent subordinate to the great object of the ex- pedition. When the Russian war steamer Kams- chatka was constructed here, one of our reporters not only went on her first trial trip, but her com- mander extended us an invitation to crom the Atlantic in her; and the fact must be still fresh in the memory of our readers that the government of Ruesia, which is regarded as one of the most absolute in the world, permitted the daily publi- cation of despatches from the Crimea during the late war. The conduct of Mr. Toucey in this instance contrasts strangely with the cases to which we have referred, and places him in a more conspicuous than dignified position before the country. Tar Last Resort or tie Stocksopnens.— We sce that the latest Broadway Railroad scheme has pasecd the Assembly, and the whole pressure of the lobby will undoubtedly be used to induce the Senate to concur. This scheme has been yut- ten up by the stockjobbing proprietors of the Times newepaper, and it is expected to net a cool million at least. Within a month the Times sa- tirized the patriarch of all the schemes for a Broad- way Railroad, and within three days the same journal puffs the new concern, which is headed by the same person who was recently abused. The same hand without doubt penned both articles, but in the new scheme the hand hasan interest in the spoils, which makes all the difference in the world. These stockjobbers have lately been a little unfortunate in their speculations in old churches, dead men’s bones, small theatres, a { Dos Yard oteers, (Dap srimente, &o. Territory some considerable free State reinforce- mente, land or no land, before the expiration of the broken down oountry banks and other fancy stocks; so they desire toget their money back by cutting up Broadway and stil further obstruct- ing tbat thoroughfare, the great artery of the metropolis, That is the real state of the case. The bill was kept very quiet and pushed vigorously by one of the Times attachés. Had the matter not leaked out in the Herap the echeme would have eucceeded without opposition, but now there will be a strong opposition to it. A monster remonstrance against the bill has been circulated within the last three days, and it will go to Albany with the names of thousands of our worthiest citizens, who are justly indig- nant that the chief thoroughfare of the city should be used for the aggrandisement of a clique of atockjobbers. Tue Harvor Excroacument Brut.—Our tele- graphic despatch from Albany informs us that the Senate bas passed the exterior harbor line bill. This measure has beens long time under diecusaion, and as a number of property holders are interested in having the lines carried as far beyond the present limits of the city as possible, they have made every effort in their power to control the action of the Legislature in their fa- vor. For this purpose they procured the pas- sage by the Common Council of an ordinance which would give them an addition to their land- ed property on the East river of three and a half millions of square yards, and which embraces the whole of the espace between Fourteenth and Eighty-sixth streets. Owing to the narrow chan- nel way between New York and Blackwell’s Island only a bulkhead is admissible, on account of the abrupt descent of the shores into from for- ty to aixty feet water, so that for four milesthere would be no safe harborage for vessels, and very limited accommodations for the lading and dis- charging of cargoes. The lines marking the boundaries of this extension would also cause such an alteration in the currenta of the river as tomaterially interfere with the navigation and commerce of the harbor. Thus with the new charter, the new police bill, and three or four other corrupt measures before the Legislature affecting the interests of this city, we arein a fair way of reaching the millenium before this generation passes away.
