The News Bythe arrival of the steamship City of Washing- ton off Cape Race on Friday !ast, when she was intercepted by the news yacht of the Associated Press, we have news from Europe to the 23d ult., four days later than the advices previously received. With the exception of a rumor published in the London Sar, to the effect that our Minister, Me. Dallas, bas expressed his satisfaction with regard fo the arrangements of England on the question of ‘the conduct of the British cruisers in the Gulf, the political intelligence is unimportant. At Liverpool American produce continved depressed. In Loadon consols were quoted at 95§ a 953. There was bat little inquiry for American securities. The City of Washington reports weather unfavorable for the Atlantic telegraph expedition. ‘The steam frigate Niagara, of the telegraph fleet, hhad not made her appearance off Trinity Bay up to half-past seven o'clock last evening. Rain had fallen steadily all day, and there was considerable fog. ‘The steamship Cahawba arrived at this port yes- terday, with Havana news to the 30th ult. Sugars had slightiy advanced. The health of the port and city was about as usual at thisseason. With regard to the movements of our fleet in the Gulf, the Colo- rado, Jamestown and Fulton were off the coast of Cuba, while the Wabash and Arctic were, when Inst heard from, at Key West. Our correspondent at Caracas, Venezuela, writing on the 18th ult., says:—The country is quiet, and promises to continue so, under a oew constitution similar to that of 1830. A general convention of Gelegates will be convened on the Sth of July, to draft a new constitution equal in all its bearings to that alluded to, Ex-President Mouagas continues ander arrest, and should he not disgorge hus plua der of the public funds, he will certainly be im peached for malfeasance. The crops are abandant, and health, peace and pleuty reign throughout the republic. Our Bridgetown (Barbadoes) correspondent, writing on the 22d ult., says:—News from Jamaica to the Lyth inst. announces the arrival there of several British vessels of war; and two Gritieh steamers are now cruising off this port, but are prohibited, by orders from Admiral Stewart, from { boarding American vessels in the Gulf.

The eighty-second anniversary of the Declaration of Independence will be appropriately celebrated to-day in this metropolis, by military salutes, pa- rades, and geveral rejoiving. The military turn out promises to be large, and the exercises of the day ‘will terminate by grand displays of fireworks in all the parks of the city. The Tammany Society will have their usual celebration at the Old Wigwam, and the democracy of the Fifth ward promise to have a good time in laying the corner stone of a new iron Liberty pole The new screw steamship Bremen, which left Bremen on the 18th of June direct for New York, arrived at this port yesterday morning. The Bre- men brougut one hundred and eighteen passengers. Later news bad been received by the Arabia and Borassia. The steamer Jamestown, with the remains of President Mource, and the Ericson, with the Bevecth regiment on board, arrived safely at Nor. folk yesterday and proceeded on to Richmond. An iuteresting army general order is published elsewhere, from which it will be seen that, in addi tion to the present bounties, the War Department hax authorized to be paid tor enlistments at or near Fort Gibson twenty-eight dollars, Fort Pierre, Ne- Draska, forty-eight, and Fort Buchanan, Arizona, one hundred and seventeen dollars. Mr. Ceder Hobn was orda ned yesterday afternoon at the Bethel ship John Wesley, lying at pier 11 North river. Bishop Janes, assisted by other cler @ymen, conducted the vervices.

The great question that agitates the mind of Europe at this time is to know what is the ob- ject of the immense military and naval prepa- rations that France is now makiog. It is not a little suspected that Louis Napo- leon aims to carry out the great circle of events begun by the elder Napoleon, and reconstruct the map of Europe. To thisdesign the Coburg interest in England is not averse, provided its own position upon the Continent is made that of a leading Power ; ard it is supposed that it has already consented to the occupation of Italy by France, to the atter exclusion of Austria and King Bomba. In Spuin, too, there is no little uneasiness and excitement at the constant intrigues of the French Court. Not only does the Empress Eugenia maintain a most lively in- terest in the affairs about the Court of Madrid, but constant exertions are made to attach the Spanish politicians, public writers, and even poets to the train of her admirers. To so great an extent is this carried that Paris now almost disputes with Madrid the palm of Spanish lite- rature, and is in reality the cectre of Spanish intrigue. In all these combinations for the fature extension of the empire to the hounda- ries established by the first Napoleon, the great difficulty to be encountered is the tone and temper of the British people. They pow sess an hereditary jealousy of France, which the entente cordiale bas only been able to gloss over, but not to affect in the slightest degree; and the ancient hatred upon which Pitt founded his policy, and which kept him so long in power, has recently broken out in certain marked and unmistakeable instances, Although the plans of the houses of Romanoff, Bonaparte and Coburg may be well digested and arrang- ed, there is great danger that the British public may not only refuse to consent te them, but insist again upon subsidizing the nations of Eu- rope to resistance. In this positioa of affairs in Europe we have some advice to give Louis Napoleon as to a proper thing for him todo. He has shown him self to be a practical man, far above the fanati- cal tendevcies of European humanitarians, and cnpable of rightly estimating the true elements of civilized well being. A recent effort of his in endeavouring to reinvigorate the French colonies of Martinique and Guadaloupe with African labor bas failed, and the great advan- tages that were to accrue to France there- from heve fallen through. We would, there fore, advise him to direct his attention to the former French colony of Hayti, or St. Domingo. Sixty years of freedom have carried the Haytien empire back to bar- bariem, and made the fertile fields of St. Do- mingo a wilderness The skill and energy of the white race bave abandoned the island; the negroes bave been reduced to a quasi state of slavery by their own kind, who lord it over them under the copied titles of emperor, dukes, counts and lords; the mechanic arts are nearly lost among them; production bas fallen almost to its minimum point, and the entire commuvity does not present one redeeming point for the futare. France now holds a mortgage over Hayti of tome one hundred and eighty or two bundred mill'ons of francs, which will never be paid. To view of thie state of things we advise Louis Napoleon to send out a portion of the fleet and urmy be has prepared, and take possession of the once rich colony eo foolishly thrown away by the first French Directory. By so doing, he wil doa great rood to civilization, give em- ployment to the armament that now alaris Europe, and augment the power of France with © colony containing thirty thousand square jee of territory, and capable of uniimited ex pansion in an tndustrial sense = Now, the island of St. Domingo is « blot upon the ofvilization of the world, snd a standing condemnation of the false ideas of the mission of humanity that found their early exponents in the Jaco- bine ot the Great French revolution. Under social end political rule such as he might or- ganize there, it would again become an element in the civilization of the world; its present fetichiem would give way before the teachings of Christianity, and the condition of its in- babitante would be in every way improved To euch a course on the part of France there can be only one objection. This is found in the possible opposition the step might encounter from the United States. Butsuch an opposition cun be easily overcome, by combining with ft tbe true necessities of thie couniry.

Let Lonis Napoleon fol- low ont, then, the policy of his uncle, and lend his infinence to induce Spein to accept the ieecetul solution of a politica! necessity which it ir ‘mporsibie for her to evade., With such an understanding between us we would readily as- erat to his reoccupation of Hayti, and gladly ++e the re-cetebliebment there of civilization and Christianity Arrams in Mxxtco--Our further advices from Mexico to<iay are of an interesting character, and exhibit the continued necessity {eet the government ebonld take some im- mediate interest in the protection of: our citi. zens in tbat distracted republic. The present position of our Minister there is misunderstood, through either the carelessness or the ignorance of tbe telegraphic reporter for the Associated Press at New Orleans, He sent fiying over the country the report that Mr. Forsyth bad demanded his passports, The true state of the matter was given by our corres- pondent in the city of Mexico, in a letter peb- \iehed three days since. Mr. Forsyth had done all he conld to protect the interests of American citizens there; but finding his. efforts of no avail, he determined, on the morning of the departure of the express mail, and probsbly after the despatch of his letters to the govern- ment, to close the legation. This fact is stated by our correspondent in a posteript written immediately before the closing of the mail. This, it will be seen, accords with the explana- tion of the Washington Union, publishe¢ in auother column. Our correspondence from Vera Crug and Non- terey, in ancther column, with news from our exchanges, show that the war against the Zuloaga government iscontinued with unabated ardor on all sides; and it would seem that the priest ridden party must fall, for the spirit of the people is everywhere arcused agaiast the church and the standing army. Executions both of clergymen and military officers have taken place in several towns, and seem to have 8 great effect upon the supporters of President Zuloags. But reprisals have also been made, and the war is aseuming not only a bloody, but a predatory character. Forced contributions in the cities, and sacking and pillage in the country, by bands of guerrillas or robbers, is be- coming the rule throughout the central portion of the republic. No conjecture as to the pro- hable cessation of this state of things can be made, for all parties are equally in want of money to make a great and successful movement against the other. From the tenor of all the accounts from Mexico, however, it is evident that the people are gaining upon the priests and the army. Tux Orentna or Teuvanrerec AND 11s Re- suLts.—We give elsewhere to-day some important information relative to the steps for opening the Tebuantepec route to the Pacific, and a detailed account of the new mail route between New York and New Orleans. The final opening of these lines will shorten the time of travel be- tween these two cities fully two days, and re- duce that between bere and San Francieo from twenty-three to thirteen days. Such an event as this muct have a very de- cided influence, not only upon the material in- teresta of the trade and intercourse between our Atlantic and Pacific States, but it will sffect the whole of our national policy toward the repub- lice south of us. The reduction of the time of parsage to San Francisco of nearly one-half will effect a very important change in the saving of interest alone upon the large amount of treasure annually remitted from there. Another beneficial result will be the opening of a new line of travel by which passengers and emi- grants will be conveyed more cheaply than hitherto, s thing which bas been long hoped for by all the interests involved. These results will materially stimulate the growth of our Pacific States, and bring eventually a large in- crease to the domestic trade of the country. In a political light the results of the opening of the Tehuantepec route will per- haps be even more important than in an eco- nomical point of view. The great interest which bas been felt for years in the political stability of New Granada and Central America will necessarily be diminished by the with- drawal of » portion of the trade end travel of oor citizens throngh those conntries. At the varne time the turning of a part of this com- meres to the Tehoantepes ronte will give us a more lively interest in the political future of Mexico, and no dontt lead to important combi- vations between the two republics. A stable government and the maintenance of public order there, which have hitherto commanded little attention in the public mind here, will bow become an object of public solicitude, even to a greater degree than has been the case in regerd to Central America and Panama. In proportion as Mexico gains in her material con- nection with us, Nicaragua and New Granada must lore, though we can never abandon the protection of the interests of our citizens in volved in those republics, The opening of the Tehnantepec route fa, therefore, one of the most important steps of the age, ard the administration of Mr. Bu- chanan hae done a good thing in lending its conntenarnce to it We hope that the disae trous bickerings which have’ marked the con- test over the Nicarovua route will not be re peated bere. The conflicta of the New York Commodores in Central America bave cost the comntry millions, delwyed our pational march, ond done themeelves no good. Let ae hare no more bieckerings, but open the Nicaragua route abo, and give the whole world the benefit of three Americav Transit routes {a active ope- ration Forrt or Jury Stamrroe—Ovt or tae Faye Pan ito tHe Fine—The aspect of New York on Tndependenee Day fs & cnrions one. The city eeems to bave almost entirely changed the character of its population, resem bling in thie respect, for the nonce, all the fea tures of a captured town, All the regular resldente who can get out of it are to be eeen ronging the railroads, steamboats and country stager—flying, as it were, for their Hives, and arrying baggage or provisions according to the tength of their projected absence. In the treeta all the faces that one meets are those o provineials come to the city, curious to eay, in the rame vain bope whieh impela the New Yorkers to quit it, All seek to escape the pyrotecbnic and other noisy celebrations of their reepective localities, and all plunge into avother phase of them, The patriotism of the rising gereration will not allow any to shirk the temporary penalty which has to be paid for the Hlessing# of a republican conetitation. We mst all, therefore, take our Abore of it, with as much goed bumor and patience as we can copmand. Ibe Agminiauativn aed the Democratic Party, If the pure ond exsited administration of Mr. Bochanew hes not bad toeuccumb before the re- publican opposition that was arrayed against it in Corgrest, but has come out of the contest with a higher degree of power and popularity, itneed not thavk for that those who should bave proved themselves ita most staunch and unflinching sopporters, And if in the next Presidential election it will so happen that the banner of democracy cease to be the signal of triumph, the defeat of the party will beve to be attributed to the perverseness, personal am- bition, and insubordination of these same men. In the election of Speaker of the House of Repre- sentatives, the administration party showed itself to have s working majority over the com- bined opposition, of from twenty to thirty; and yet there was not a single public mea- sure recommended by the President, or requi- site to carry on the wheels of government, in which, through the crotchety defection of some upmanageable democrats, the votes of members of the opposition were not required to make up @ majority. ‘That was a strange condition of affairs, and one which must have been mortifying in the bighest degree to the administration and to every true friend of the democratic party. The defection was primarily exhibited when the President recommended a course of proceeding in regard to Kansas, which he honestly deemed the safest and wisest, and the one best calcu- lated to restore peace to that Territory and put an end to strife and agitation throughout the country. But no sooner was the course indi- cated by him attempted to be carried out by Congress, than a score or more of reputedly ardent democrats flew off at a tangent in both houses, and those of the House of Representa- tives, by allying themselves with the opposi- tion, frustrated for months the patriotic effort of the President to put an end to the dis- graceful feud which had too long subsisted throughout the country in regard to a lot ef political vagabonds in a distant Territory. The world knows by what means a compromise was at length effected, by which many of the renegades came back into the democratic fold, but still too few to save the administration from being indebted, even for the passage of thiscom- promise measure, to some opposition votes. Still more curious circumstances attended the passage of some of the deficiency bills. Although the items in these bills were for expenditures already made or for debts incurred on behalf of the government, under a democratic administra- tion, and although they emanated from @ demo_ cratic Committee of Ways and Means, numbers of democratic representatives arrayed them- selves in determined hostility to these bills; and, strange as it may appear, their passage was due, at length, to the votes of a large portion of the opposition united to those of the administration party that were not disposed to this crotchety courre of action, over the votes of the minority of the opposition and of the democratic recu- sents, So it was, too, in relation to the expenses of the Utah expedition. Were it not for the patriotism and independence of party exhibited by republican and American members, Brig- bam Young might be still ruling in Salt Lake City, for aught some of the democratic mem- bers of Congress cared. In the bill passed for raising four regiments of volunteers, which the President subsequently found he might dispense with, and which he, therefore, did not call into service, the support of republican members was freely given, and operated to counteract the hostility of some of the profeseed friends of the administration. The amendment of the Senate to the Naval Appropriation bill, directing the construction of five steam sloops-of-war, was amended in the House on the motion, we believe, of Mr. Coch- rane, by increasing the number to ten; but the amendment to the amendment was carried chiefly by republican votes. Ona Committee of Conference that was subsequently had on dis- agreeing votes to this bill, a compromise line was struck substituting eeven for ten, and this substitution was confirmed almost unani- mously—at least, the opposition came not from republicans. 80, too, in reepect to the loan bills. The main opposition to them came from unmanage- ate democrats and constitutional hairspiitters. When the last bill for the fifteen million loan wae before the Tivuse, was amended on the motion of a republican member from Michigan, by increasing the amount to thirty millions, on the ground that less than the latter sum would be ineuflicleng to eupply the deficit and meet the expenses of the government during the fiecal year. And this amendment only failed finally becsuse, by a parliamentary arti- fice which had to be resorted to in furtherance of business, all amendments were cut off, and the bill was reported from committee in its original shape We think that this array of facts, taken from the bistery of the Inst session of Congress, and which might be enlarged ad libitum, will satisfy every one of the truth of the statement with which this article opece—that Mr. Buchanan bas little caure to thank the democratic majority i Congress for the ruccers of administration a: government measures, and that if the demo- eratic party sustain a defeat in the next Presidential election, that defeat will be due to the insubordination and eccentricities of ite own members. The prominent demooratic members of Congress exhibited during the last session a disregard of party organization, a contempt for party discipline, and a want of cobesiveness, which, however refréehing to see in our public men, forebodes aught but good to the existence of demooracy, and give dange- rous indications of weakness and impending dissolution. ‘Thiet is eo, more particuiarly as their opponents of the repnblican party are well drilled, in thorongh sabordioation, and ap- pear to have wo crotchety, eccentric or thin- stiomed individuals among them, who will be alwaye fiying off at tangents. If the course of ection be farther persisted in, and if the admin- ietration thal hereafter be rendered dependent on the forbearance and good common sense of ite patoral enemfes, instead of on the cordial euppert of its natural friends, it will not be diMfienlt to predict the result of the Presidential election of 1860, Aw Ivptan Wan Tineatenen—We publish in another column an interesting article on our relations with the Indian tribes on the Western and Northwestern frontier, to which we direct attention. There ie every reason to fear that a serious and most expensive war with the tribes hostile attitude axaumed by otber tribes in Min- oerota—and, in fact, a! along the boréer—warns us that there is trouble ahead. Indian wars bave always proved very expensive affairs; and in the present depleted condition of the treasury, Mr. Cobb might find considerable difficulty in procuring the wherewithal to maintain a pro- tracted struggle now, with our enormously costly Utah army also to be provided for. Looking at al] the present indications on the border, we are reminded that our mode of deal- ing with the Indians has not been calculated either to advance their condition or secure their gocd will, There is a screw loose in our Indian relations, and we would suggest to the govern- ment an entirely new Indian policy. The tribes now scattered over domain of immense ex- tent might be concentrated within such limits as would enable us to control them. They should receive smaller annuities, and be com- pelled as much as possible to cultivate the soil for a subsistence, and above alla better and less rapacious class of persons should be employed to deal with them as agents, It is less to the faults of the red man’s character than to the rapacity of the white men who intermingle with them, whether as traders or officials, that we are indebted for many of the difficulties which occur. In many instances the Indians are de- liberately provoked to commit outrages in order to get up a pretext for sending troops to some of our frontier stations, by which means greedy speculators may make a little money. The Semi- nole wars in Florida cost the nation upwards of $50,000,000. The Indian wars in Washington and Oregon have already involved usin a debt of $6,000,000; and as things look now we shoald not be surprised if we got another severe lesson on the Western frontier, which may teach us, to our cost, that the present policy adopted to- wards the aboriginese is entirely wrong aud needs a radical reform. Tar Next News rrom Utan.—The last in- telligence from Camp Scott represented General Johnston as about to march with his whole army—three thousand strong—into Salt Lake city, in two days. He has been re- inforced by Capt. Marcy’s command from Santa Fe and the supply trains of Col. Hoffman from Fort Leavenworth; his men were in fine condi- tion, and his stock of animals complete. The Governor and Peace Commissioners had already preceded him. ‘The entrance of the army into the capital of the “Saints” will put the inten- tions of the Mormons to a practical test. Their threat will be remembered—that the appear- ance of the soldiers within the capital should be the signal for converting Salt Lake City into another Moscow. We shall see whether they will carry out that intention. We krow no- thing of what bas been doing inside the city, except from the statements of the Mormons themeelves; for Governor Cumming was igno- rant and foolish enough to exclude the news- paper correspondenta—a fact which is in itself evidence that he is not the man for the mission he is upon. He ought to know something of the nature and value of the newspaper press, and the popular desire to be informed through that medium upon all matters of public impor- tance. Mr. Cumming ought to have been born in Austria or Turkey, or some country where the press withers under the blight of censorship. From the intelligence we have been able to gather it is clear that the question of resistance to our troops is a mere party one in Utah, apd, moreover, that the party lines are drawn pretty close. The Peace men—among whom Brigham Young chances to be—have a small majority; but the war party is still a formidable ove—the more so because it comprises the men who made the largest sacrifices for the cause, who have lost their all for it, and are therefore unwilling to give it up without a seruggle. The men who came in obedience to the call of the Charch from Carson Valley, San Bernardino and other points, where they bad accumulated fortunes—all of which are now lost forever—are not likely to submit quietly, and go forth into exile without making an effort to retain some foothold on the soil of Utah. If the city should be barned down on the approach of the army, we should not be surprised to see these men take to the mountains, turn guerillas, and keep up such harassing assaults on the troops that another Florida war may be the result, Tn the partial exodus of the Mormons south- words we do not recognise any certain indica tious that they mean to abandon the Valley altogether. It ie more probable that they witl settle at Provo aud other sma!! settlements around, in the hope that the army may be withdrawn, when they caleulate to return and enjoy their own again. Perhaps their leading men see farther into the alarming movements of the Indians on our western frontier than we do—if they are not the instigators of some of the hostile manifestations, which, if they con- tinue, will necessitate the employment of our army at other points besides Salt Lake Valley. If this sheuld turn out to be so, it will prove that Gen. Jobnston was right in urging the im- mediate advance of the army into the city, and that Governor Cumming was wrong. Follow: ing the example of Mr. Fillmore and poor Pierce, Cumming has adopied a temporizing policy, and the Mormons are most likely hum- bugging him as they did them. In view of those things, the next news from Utsh will be of the highest interest; perhaps the most important yet received from that quarter, Meanwhile read Dr. Bernhisel's card in avother column Fiot justitia, &. Tue Arttaxric Tenrorarn—We have no news as yet from the Telegraph expedition. Let us hope that the delay muy verify the old pro verb. It is to be accounted for in a measure by the weather which is stated to have prevailed for the Inet ten or twelve days. The City of Washington, which was boarded off Cape Race on the 2d, reports it to have been anything but favorable for the purpores of the enterprise, The Indian Empire, which reached Halifax oo Friday, encountered a severe gale on the 24th, which must have veriously retarded the labors of the expedition. By the log of the steamer Victoria, (published in another colamn,) it will he teen that up to the 18th solid packs of field ice were everywhere to he encountered off the Banks of Newfoundland, whilst other vessele report meeting numerons tecbergs, From these statements it may be inferred that the work of Isying the cable bad met with « slight delay, which wonld account for our not having sopner received news from the Telegraph fleet, Itis only ae the paying-out vessels approach the reepectiverbores that they would be likely to crore the track of the mail steamers, We may be without intelligence for several days longer, in Warhington Territory, Oregon, and still far- | supposing the connection in mid-ocean to have ther south, is impending.

In the meanwhile, whilst one portion of the Public are awaiting in anxiety the result of the enterprise, apotber seems quite unconseious of its difficulties, and, indeed, of the fact of its not being alresdy in operation. An amusing in- etence of this readiners to anticipate events without calculating the obstacles to their ae- complithment, occurred the day before yeater- day. A gentleman rushed into ove of the tele- graph offices in Wail street with a despatch, re *’ questing the operators to immediately trapamit it over the submarine wires to Liverpool. The message was taken and sent—es far as it would go. Itisdevoutly tobe boped that the blind impulse of the individual in question may have been a sort of prophetic instinct, and that bis message may be’one of the first to reach by the cable the Irish coast, , THE LATEST NEWS.

Our Special Washington Despatch, Wasninaron, Jaty 4, 1868, Mr. Forsyth, !n bis despatches, says, that while he hae Ceazed to bold diplomatic intercourse with the govern- ment of Zulcega, he deemed it better to remain in Mexico to afford protection to American citizens if needed, an@ ‘until he could learn the views of his government as to bie course. While the administration views the action of the Zuloaga government, with regard to the forced contribs. tions, as an impolitic stretch of power, and injurious te American citizens, it has nw yet decided if it be a viola on of treaties.
