The steemehip Niagara, from Liverpool Uth dost., arrived at Helilax yostorday. The news brought by her ix three days later than the ac- counts published in yesterday's HeraLp. The AWantic telegraph cable remained much in the same condition ax previously reported. Faint “signals” or “manifestations” only were received through the wire. The directors of the company were to meet on the 1th inst., te take actiom with regard to the state of affairs. A mesenger from China, the bearer of the treaty agreed upon between the Chinese representatives and the Britikh and French Plenipotentiaries, had grrived in England. The provisions of the treaty aro already familiar to our readers. In London consols had improved a trifle. The Liverpool cotton and breadstaffs reports show an advance in prices, with » buoyancy in the markets. The steamship Vigo, for Liverpool, will take the European mails on Saturday next. The sailing of the Vanderbilt has been postponed until the Satar- day following, October 2. We have news from Rio Janeiro to the Ith ult. Our correspondent writes that the British and American Ministers are great favorites at the Bra- silian court, but that the French Minister was somewhat cool, but very inquisitive relative to the cordial reception extended to a member of the ex- royal family (Orleans) of France, who had arrived on the steam packet from Southampton. The united efforts of France, England and Brazil had completely driven slavers off the coast, and none had been seon or heard of for a long time. The sales of coffee subsequent to the lat ulttimo amounted to 49,000 bags, of which 34,000 were for the United States, 1100 forthe British Chaunel and the North of Europe, 31,000 for the Mediter- ranean, and the balance for the Cape, at 4/7508 41)800 for sound lots. Stock on hand 112,000 bags. Flour, damaged by fire, sold at 114600. No other sales were reported. The markets for sugar, hides | and fish were unchanged. | We heve files from Bacnos Ayres dated the 28th of July. The Packet of that day has the fol- | lowing report:—In general we may report the mar- ket sbundantly supplied, demand languid, and prices rather downward in their tendency. Flour, both home grown and imported, with a downward tendency. It is too early yet to estimate the pros pecta of our harvest; but should it prove abundant. the import of foreign four must be an unpromising speculation.

We have news from the French West Indi dated at Guadaloupe and Martinique, to the 12th of Aq In the former colony the exports up to theflet ult. were more than the total exportation of lastyear. The production of «agar for the entire year would, it wae calculated, be 26,000,100 kilo. grammes. The total prodoction of «nagar in Marti nique for the year would, it was calculated, exceed that of Guadaloupe. In both islands epecie was | tare, and as much as twelve percent was paid | for it.

Cap: tain Marcy arrived at Washington from Utah yee terday. This is the ‘irst arrival of an officer of the army from that region since the commencement of the campaign against the Mormons.

Itis nota little curious that the objections urged aguinst General Scott are precisely the same as those that were urged against General Jackson previous to giving him his second no- mination for the Presidency. He bad been de- feated in his tirst canvass by Mr. Adams, but had obtained a very handsome popular vote. When he was talked of for renomination in 1828 every- body thought the thing preposterous, “He has not got a corporal’s guard of friends,” said one; “he has all the prestige of defeat, and cannot win,” shouted another; “he is nothing but a sol- dier,” cried a third; “he is as obstiante as a mule,” insisted a fourth; “we want alive man, not « bunch of dry bones,” bawled fifth; and so they went on, each louder and more vociferous than his neighbor, hoping to drive out of the field the maa they most feared as an opponent. Ifis friends clang to him, clinging the closer that they were few in number. Defeat, Instead of being @ disadvantage, had taught them how to win. As the great issues which had before agitated the country and divid- ed parties had died out, and the coming ones were not yet developed, they placed him on the platform of his great services to the whole coun- try. To the charge that he was hard-headed end obstinate, they replied that that was what the enemies of the country had found in him; and when he was called “a bag of bones,’ they an- swered that thal was Packenham’s opivion at New Orleans. Now in the cases of the renomination of Jack- son and Scott, the simile does not stop here, but extends to the personal character of the men, and to all the field of political strife. When Jackson was nominated a second time parties were completely disintegrated and broken up. A dozen popular favorites in as many different sections contended for the Presidency. The old democratic party of Jef ferson and Madison had worn itself out, or died from the want of a living opposition. Jackson was brought out by «# small fraction of the old democracy, and he at once ook hold of them and brought them under drill. They were taught to march and conntermarch in squads, companies, regiments and divisions. Strict discipline was enforced. Tactics were introduced, and the young politi- cians were taught the policy and advantage of acting together. Everywhere Jackson’s military rules were the constitution and law of his party; and the result was that it not only won the fight then, but the discipline introduced at that time bas enabled the democratic party to wio on nearly every subsequent occasion, although since Jackson's time it has never commanded a popu- lar majority. This Jacksonian experience is what must now be applied to the unorganized masses of the op- position. There are no great issues before the country. The slavery agitation is dead; tariff snd bank are obsolete; what there was good in the internal improvements policy has been seized by the democracy; squatter sovereignty has ex- ploded; and the States’ rights doctrine is virtu- ally ndinitted and practised everywhere. The democrats bang together solely by the habit of disciplim®, while the opposition is split up oa “ram,"" “the Pope of Rome,” “spiritualism,” “free love,” and « hundred other isms that have n » vitality or power in them than these. What it requires is, a man whose platform con be a long list of great and bril- liant personal services to the countr: one who understands discipline and tactics better than he does hair splitting on abstract and theoretical subtleties; whose personal | weight of character and antecedents will enable him to put down all the ambitious claims of see- tional and factious party leaders. is General Seott, and none other «o pre and fevorably known can be found in the whole country. If, there , the opposition have any wish to make a winning fight in 1860, let them # all the petty leaders, each of whom, because he is strong in hie own county thinks himself entitled to the Presideney, and unite upon a thoroughly ) man like Seott. Let the young aod Z politicians throw overboard the veteran tricksters, who in thirty years of public life have been on every «ide of every question, supporting every man as “a good enough Morgan till after the election,” «and uniting under the banner of the veteran chief, study “ Scott's Tactics” party text book, and learn from him the true principles of party discipline. If it ir urged that he hagbeen once defeated, their reply will Suc’! natic asa be that defeat is the school ry If he ceused of being obstinate, th vhat the enemics of our eo rntry found h'm «' Landy's Lane ond in Mexic« ould it be objected that le is only a soldier, that is the man that knows how to fight a ina battle. Is he called vain, who can pride himself on brighter glories or a more sreer. They will have a hexo for their snd the people will rally round him, ah the old politicians, who never want a stronger or more honest man than themselves in the Presideney, may cavil at him and de- rert The opposition, then, if they wish to succeed, must adopt “Seott's Tagtics.” We have a0 great the national issues now, and there is therefore the more necessity for 2 national man at the head of the government. Whatever emergeacios may arise he will meet them with a national spirit ; and should issues ariso, they will be Ike those that came up in Jackson's time, national in every sense of the word, and faction will cower and be eubdued before them. If the opposition takes this course, and adopts Scott now, as tho democrats did Jackson in 1826, he will give them system and a party discipline that will carry them to many a victory long after he shall | have passed away. Tux Conprrion or THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPS Cazix.—The news which we received from Eng- land by the leet mall, as well as that which came by telegraph from Halifax, and which we pub- Nab this morning, has created unnecessary ap- prehensions In regard to the con@jtion of the At- lantio cable. A calm consideration of all the particulars will show that there are really no grounds for any fears, and that the cable, with the exception of that portion which is within four or five miles of Valentia Bay, and which is easi- ly recoverable for repairing, is as perfect, aa when the last message was received from Bag- It i not true, in the first place, ae has been stated in some papers, that the signals had ceased; and the idea which has been advanced of some submarine mountain peak from which it is suspended, is simply ridiculous, The statement of the Secretary of the company, Mr. Saward, is that no “intelligible signals” have been received through the line, but the continuity is not destroyed, and when the defective portion of the cable shall have been taken up and repaired, no difficulty will be fonnd in the transmission of meskages, ‘The electrical tests which have been applied to the conductor show that the fault is @ithin three or four miles of the landing place, on the Trish coast, and at the same point where the de- fect was, a5 it now appears, but imperfectly ro- paired at the time the Queen’s message was in course of transmission. Anoruex Worn ro rut Taxpayers.—If tho taxpayers require any further stimulant to urge them on in their undertaking to reform the abuses in the city government, by electing proper men to office, perhaps it may be found in the fuet that recent investigations show a deficiency in the assessment collections alone of $200,000, and that there are at present four thousand pro- perty owners in the city against whose pro- perty liens are recorded for assessments, nearly | Pryne judiciously declined to accept. Thus, if every dollar of which has been paid and put in the pockets of the collectors. It is very doubt- ful whether all (bis doubly taxed property can be released fron ee liens without a special act of the L sture. This fact, in addition to all the revelations of fraud in other departments of the city govern- ment already made, should be enough to arouse the property owners toa determination to get rid of the whole set of politicians who now hold office under the Corporation. With disaffection in the democratic camp in this city, and the equabbles which divide the republican and Ame- rican parties in their eagerness for the spoils, it will be an easy matter for an indopendent tax- payers’ organization to carry all the Corporation offices, from Comptroller down, at the December election. But to do this they must keep clear of the wirepullers of all factions, No compromise with tricky politicians should ve the word. The taxpayers are strong enough in numbers to do the work themselves, and if they only combine their strength they can accomplish their purpose Tur Bats. t¥ Mortox.—The independent de mocratic nomination of General Walbridge for Congress in the district now represented by the Hon. Daniel E. Sickles, indicates hot work among the democracy of this city in November. “Behold, how good a thing it is for men and brethren to dwell together in peace and unity” in Tammany Hall or at Syracuse ! Tr Larn Ricumoxp Duet—Roorr A. Pryor ty Liwno.—The late duel near Richmond, be- tween the Hon. Sherrard Clemens and Mr. 0. Jennings Wise, of the Richmond Enquirer, two of the shining lights of the Virginia democracy, has been brought into court. It appears that Mr. Roger A. Pryor was one of the friends of Mr. Clemens in the affair of honor indicated, and that the Court desired his evidence in view of a prosecution of the parties concerned, according | to the stringent requirements of the laws of the State against duelling. The witness declined to answer certain questions, on the ground that by answering he would criminate himself. Anothe witness, of the name of Smith, pursued the same course, and the pair being committed for contempt, the matter wae next brought up | before the Circuit Court apon a writ of habeas corpus, the debate npon which, at last accounts, was etill pending. We presume that the parties will be dismiesed on the ground of chi- volry; bat we shall be agreeably disap. pointed if the present hot imbroglio among the Wise and Hunter men doce not result in more quarrels and more bloodshed befure the bel ligerent parties come to treaty of peace. In ibis city, when a fighting editor has been guilty of a duel, we do contrive sometimes to wet him into close quarters, but a benevolent Governor may be relied upon to save the victim of the law the journey to Sing Sing. |) Preamwe Nor Geuty.-Tharlow Weed is pleading luetily that be desired o union of the republicans and Americans at Syracuse; bet | ‘aetions speak louder than words." | mast have known that he himeelf was the great le to the that the Americans would not Heten to fasion t his first taking “a back seat in the new nd yet he refused to budge o peg. After having it ail his own way, afler driving the Know Nothings indignantly from hie lordly presence, he pleads that he “sincerely and ear- nestly labored to effect anion.” The refusal of Weed to take that “back seat” will most pro- bably be the death of Morgan.

According to the Chevalier Webb's oa- timate the “temperance and freedom” ticket ought to poll some seventy-five (housand yotes. Let Smith bold fat, Thurlow | union he 80 much desired; | Hon. Magsa Greeier ow rw Tax Question.— The Hon. Macca Greetey is sorely puzzled to ac- count for our advocacy of an independent tax- | payers’ party in this metropolis, Our funny phi- losopher suspects that we are only in fun, and | desires to know if we are really in earnest upon the subject. We have only to refer him to our enormous and constantly increasing city taxes and corporation expenditures, wasteful extrava- gances, embezzlements and corruptions of all | kinds, for his answer. These evils for years have increased, and are still increasing under our ex- isting rotten party organizations. With the de- mocracy or the opposition in power, or with a mixture of both, the administration of our city affairs has gone steadily on from bad to worse, from year to year, until {t is manifest that the only alternative for retrenchment and reform is the organization Into # distinct party of the men who furnish the moneys of the Clty Treasury, against the drones and rogues who squander these moneys, and fatten upon them, to the prejudice of good morals, law, onder, public decency, life and property. : Hence we advocate the organization of our tax- payers into'a eeparate, self-protecting, municipal party, just, asin default of a competent public police force agninst thieves and burglars, wo | would recommend our property ‘holders to com- bine for a speedy reform in tho premises, The Hon. Massa Greeley would probably prefer a “Phe chevalier of | ‘22 Cuble wearing away on tho sharp point of | yin of city expenditures, robberies sind Mabilities, not only of ten millions a year, but of fifteen or twenty millions, rather than have the public at- tention diverted from niggers and from tho sohemes of tho Seward managers for the offices and the spoils. Retrenchment and economy form no part of the Seward programme; and thus it is not surprising that the Hon. Massa Greeley should turn up his nose at any proposi- tion of reform like that of a taxpayers’ party. But for all this, the Hearn is really in earnest in this business of a taxpayers’ party, as the only means of arresting the inordinate extortions of our tax consumers; and because so long as the taxpayers offer no resistance, so long will they continue to be fleeced by the rogues and drones of a corrupt city government. Tur Browniow Fromvery Expen.—The quack parson Brownlow, of Tennessee, after his terrible discussion on slavery and niggers with the abolitionist Pryne, at Philadelphia, has given it up as 8 bad job, anti has gone home. It ap- pears that the fighting parson refused to renew the controversy with Pryne unless the latter would consent to try his hand south of Mason and Dixon's boundary—s proposition which Brownlow showed himself a fool in tho begin- ning, Pryne, though « great ass, has proved him- self a wise man in the end.
