Yesterday morning at quarter after o'clock,
the Great Western stole up the harbor unper
ceived, and was safely moorcd at the dock before
half of New York were out of their lazy beds. She
left Bristol at her appointed day, the 23d of March,
and has been detained so long her passage-twen-
ty-two days-by squalls, head winds, heavy seas,
thunder and lightning, and every obstacle that wind
and water could create. r@H
BY the polteness and attention of Captain Hoskin,
we received our papers and packages at an early
hour. His arrangements for the supply of the news
papers with their packages are most complete and
satisfactory.
Professor Morse, Of the New York University
has returned passenger, and brings with him i'm
portant dispatches from Mr.. Stevenson. which were
forwarded yesterday to Washington. Professor
Morse has been in Europe since last summer, endea
yoring to make a negotiation with the French or
English government, for the of his great inven-
ton, the Electric Telegraph After a great deal Of
delay and procrastination, both these governments
have declined but the Russian government have
taken up the matter with great zeal, and the Pro.
lessor will probably return to Europe for the
purpose of carrying out his invention in the Russian
Empire.
This news is Of the highest importance, and the
question Of peace-a long peace with England, and
the revival Of our commercial relations with
doubled energy may be considered nearly settled.
The Message Of the President and Protocol Of
Mr.. Fox and MIR. Forsyth, had arrived in En-
gland by the England packet ship, few days
before the sailing of the Great Western, and, 10
every appearance, caused no uneasiness or fuctua-
tion in our political or commercial relations The
moderate tone OF the President respected, al
though the Tory papers attempted to attribute hostile
views TO our government. The " London Times
In a very elaborate article the Boundary Cues
tien, out quite practically, and proposes an
ercange of territory, IN order 10 bring e mailer TO
a formulation. IL the tory opposition favorable
to a compromise, the ministry viii be so, and
then all difficulties win soon be removed. IL reply
to question put on the 18Th ult to Lord Palmers-
ton, by Sir s. Canning the former said ''thGf both
governments aciuated BY a serious desire to
obtain a safisfacioyy result" The Affairs Of Ire
land and the relations Of France with Mexico appear
to engage more the attention Of the British govern
&C..
There appears also be strong probability that the
Melbourne Cabinet has resigned on the subject of
Irish affairs but that does not at all alter the pacific
position Of England. A British special messenger
arrived in the Great Western, and proceeded yes
terday to Washington.
II will be perceived also by private correpon-
dcnce from London, that Anerican securities ,cere
NOT much affected by the beiiigerent aspect from
this side This result was no doubt produced
by the moderate tone OF govenmcnt--and
we can hardly believe that taking every thing
into consideration, the accounts of the law
passed by Congress, and the war speeches OF Mr..
Webster and the foolish whg party, carried to Eng
land by the Liverpool, win cause any unusual de-
precision or iactusiion in those securities. Some
Of the brightest features arc developing them
selves-cotton Is rrsng-trade is rcviving--corn is
falling--,be English government is pacGc-thc tory
opposition not so clustering as was expected-the
theatres going 10 the dcvil--van Amburgh greater

smile, and her wise and modest administration Of
public affairs.
