The Board of Alderman after a short session
last evening adjourned to the first Monday in
July.
The Board of Councilmen last evening con-
CURED with the Board of Aldermen to appro-
pirate $4,000 for the public celebration of the
Fourth of July. Attached to the resolution Of
appropriation is a proviso that no part of this
sum shall be expended in food or drink. This
unpalatable provision gave rise to stormy de-
bate, which lasted for about an hour, when the
Board concurred with the Aldermen, and next
Fourth of July the people will get the full value
of their money in music and pyrotechnics.

sfyord TO spsrc the division Of Sir George Brown
from The army with which they are now commenc-
inc oneratiops in the field. Their superiority in
numbers is far from being 50 great that they can
wisely distribute themselves in this manner at
reno te points about the peninsula
The next great success is the capture Of
pIsce d'arrnes. which the Russians had prepared
in front of the Redan and Malakof bastions be-
tween their lines and the French, to assemble In
for important sorties. As we have not heard Of
this before we must infer that it was new con-
struction, and of purely offensive character.
In other words. the besieged instead Of being
more and more weakened by the besiegers and
restr;cted to defending themselves, are still in
nos;tion TO extend their means of assaillng and
dsmsg;pg the latter. This place was attacked
nv the French about IS, GOO strong on the night
of May 90, ard, as Pelissier reports, was par
tally carried; Gorchakof says the Russians
held it. but with loss Of $500 men. The le1t
r;obt the combat was renewed, when the Rus
slams were driven out and the entire place occu-
pied. But this appears to be merely negative
yictory. deriving the Russians of q means of

slepcinc the defenses Of the town. The allied
trenches were not carried forward yard by it,
nor does it afford the least ground for expecting
tina, assault promised, but never realized.
The third new and victorious movement is
that of 35, GOO Frenchmen upon the line of the
Chernaya. In respect of this we are also IA
yored with some splendid exaggerations, which
give it all the pretensions of a great triumph
The truth is that it is but the first step OF the
operations in the field which must now begin.
This force is probably thrown forward to occu-
by the Russian army, while another allied diyi-
sion will march by Alupka and the paths of the
hills to turn the Russian intrenched position
now occupying the main road to Sympheropol.
That the Russians would thus withdraw from
the Chernaya was a matter of course. They
must reserve themselves for the fight behind
their intrenchments, where, according to an
Austrian Geographic dispatch, the Allies are
about to attack them lOO, 900 strong-which we
shall believe when we see it, battle on the
Chernaya would have been folly for them, espe-
cially if their numbers are so much inferior as
they are represented. But we have little faith
in these representations, and shall wait for
facts to justify that sanguine scOrn with which
The London Times speaks Of the slight resist
ance which the Allies will probably have to en-
counter hencefortb, before we admit its proprs
ty. 1t re mans to be seen whether the long dis
aster of the siege is now to be crowned by bril-
liant and facile couple main, rendering the West
'ern Powers at once masters of the entire Crimea.
But at any rate we may now expect exciting
news from that quarter. If it does not now
show us war on tn, grandest scale it will GER
taiDly be on the most active.

execution ofhonest purposes but to mystify ana
bamboozle them by specious but empty form
Mas. Even now the leading struggle with
the managers Of the National Council Of the
Know. Nothipgs at Philadelphia has been to de-
wise some form Of language on the vital question
Of the Republic which shall conclia.e the pre-
'iudices and interests of the South and the moral
convictions of the North, to the ultimate be-
tray al of both.
But il is evident from the tone Of public SEN
timent and from the discussions Of the aforesaid
Council, that the hour for such chichanery Is
mast The people have been too cften hood
wipked and cheated by these wire-pulling knives
10 submit to their more protracted domination
They demand an open field aud direct encoun-
ter. They are determined to rally no more to the
sound of an uncertain trumpet. They will be
no longer guided by the tinklings Of the bell
wether. They find little attraction in favorite
names or in the old shibboleths.
We are perfectly sincere, therefore, in our
wish that the "Old Constitutional Hunkers,'
of every sect and party, should fix themselves
at once on the platform prepared for them by
their masters in Georgia. The sooner they do
il the better il will be for the cause of Freedom.
The sooner the entire free mind of the North,
without distinction of party, will be provoked
TO unite on a basis which shall be thoroughly,
immoyably, completely the counterpart Of that
of the slavocrats and their abettors. 1t is as
clear as the light of MONDAY to every rejecting
observer that the controversy about Slavery
must be settled in this country on one side or
the other, and every attempt to delay that set
Element merely shifts the burden of it to the
shoulders of others. The wisest course is to
meet the responsibility of it at once, that the
"agitation of which so many complain may
subside forever. Let the North take her ground
as distinctly and firmly as the South has always
taken here, and speedy end will be put to the
dispute.
We have not the slightest fear that this settle
ment would lead to disunion. South Carolina
and few other States would indulge in salient
threats, but they know their own interests too
well to move step beyond threats. Even The
Express, which has made the cry of dsunion the
refrain of its songs for so many years, now that
it has motive for disclosing the truth, opens
the eyes of its w.Nothing coadjutors to the
perfect insignifcance oft, in words like these:
"There is no danger Of dissolution Of the Union
about Kansas, for there is nobody to dissolve the
Union about there. To dissolve the Union as certain
Georgian resolutions threaten if Kansas is kept out OF
the Union, is mere wnd-the merest wind-of pohti-
cal hon blowers. 1t is wind often wasted that we
wonder the wind instruments Southwark blow 1t again
and again.'
This is we'll said for The Express, and we en-
tirely agree with it. He must be silly fellow
indeed who can suppose that mere blast from
rams horns is to blow down the walls of our
Jericho

We presume consumers of beef will be more
interested in our report of the Cattle Market
this week than farmers and drovers, for we re-
port another decline Of full one cent upon quo
tations of last week. There We're twenty
hundred bullocks in market yesterday, and the
rate at which they were sold brought the price
of the meat at an average of ten cents pound,
ranging from nine to eleven cents, with only
baif a dozen or so at twelve cents. This will
enable butchers to reduce prices to about the
standard before the enormous rise in May.
Among the Cattle sold yesterday were 154 head
from Texis They were bought bya Mr.. Taylor
of Missouri, and driven up and sold to MIR.
Rankin of Illinois, who after feeding them
brought them here by railroad. They are very
peculiar in their appearance, having remarkably
long horns and looking as though made for the
great journey they have performed. They are
muscular and loDg-legged, and not very fat.
Owing to their great activity their flesh may
be tough but fne-grained, and with some
what of a wild flavor. 1t is liked better by
some than the flesh of stall-fed animals. 1t is
to be wished that we had more of the cheap
Cattle of the Texan prairies.

The Know Nothing National Council came to
a vote late last night upon the ultimatum Of the
Northern delegates, and rejected it nearly two
to one. They have thus taken their position as
a National party, that the Missouri Compromise
shall not be restored, and by taking that posi-
ton have sealed their fate. They will be repu-
dated throughout the Free States, and an or
ganization truer to the instincts of the people
will rise from their ruins.

Mr.. w. w. Walk, the Congressman elect from
Queens County, writes second letter to Ias
Charleston Mercury in the boo-hoo style, as to the
dangers which threaten the Union. 1t begins
with quotation from Montesquieus Spirit Of
Lars to the effect that " liberty consists in every
"man's being allowed to speak his thoughts and
"lsv open his sentiments" But the Courts of
Queens County show that Mr.. Walk has still
more enlarged notion of liberty than Monies
ouieu, who did not extend it, we believe, to the
liberty of kissing your neighbours wife against
her consent.
1t is surprising that Mr.. Walk in his intense
devotion to the Union should forget to embrace
in the term that lesser domestic union which
is supposed to be the foundation Of all civil hsr-
mony and order. If man is bound as he says
in expression of his opinions, "to be cautious OF
"the rights, the property and the reputation OF
"otbers," ought he to be less cautious about
walking into his neighbours front door and dis
turbipg the peace of the house BY violent scenes
on sofa
Mr.. Walk argues that it would be no breach OF
the rights of "Romansts" to exclude them
fr,m Office. because their hierarchy is des-
"potic in its church government, and they are
mot therefore safe repositories OF secular
"power;" but he says nothing of his Southern
friends, whose domestic government is not
model of freedom. As he has not proved him
self chary of domestic interference, we wonder
how this analogy should have escaped his atten-
tion.
The Charleston Mercury is candid enough to
admit that it does not approve of all Mr.. Walks
sentiments. Will it be equally candid in ex-
pressing an opinion of his conduct as detailed in
the report of the Queens County proceedings
printed in THE TRIBUNE of the 18th inst.

MEXICO.
CRITICAL POSITION OF SANTA ANNA.


Correspondence Of The New-Orleans Bee -
MExIco, Tuesday, June 3, 1859.
The last fortnight has been fruitful in events: Inc
appearance of the insurgents tie City OF Mexico,
tie battle Of Tsayuca the journey of IL. l. H. from
Morclia to Arrio his humiating retreat, the capture
of Monterey all furnish material sufficient to augment
the terror OF some the hopes of Others and to satisfy
the curiosity of ell.
NV last letter closed at the period when Santa Anna
was on his way from Morea TO Zamora. The rumor
that he Ind retreaed to Guanajuato without foun-
dalton. II was the insurgents who, with great sagac
ity had quilted Zamora before the arrival Of the Gov
eminent troops. Pueblita alone remained with his
section waiting the sight of the enemy before he left.
Santa Anna therefore reached Ismora without strk
Ing blow--an easy victory, but yet the most sub
stantia be il likely TO achieve. The stories published
in the papers Of the defeat of Pueblita utterly
false Santa Anna did send party in pursuit OF him,
but these chivarous soldiers returned after an absence
OF few hours swearing they were unable to discover
single trace of the daring rebel; whereupon Santa
Anna lavished upon them some OF those choice epi-
tbets of reproach with which the Spanish vocabulary
abounds.
Amer the capture of Zamora, the insurgents took
different routes and what is almost incredible, while
Santa Anna OH his way to the interior 10 ex'er-
inmate them, considerable division OF the rebels, un-
der the command Of Degoiado, were marching almost

The division not the symptom Of passing dis
content but the evidence of organic disease. Even in
tle Statee which presented an apparent harmony of
action and purpose in the votes of Their delegates in
Csuncil, the division spreads wide. Half the local
sanzators in this State are ready to unite with Mas
sschuset;s and Ohio against the more National frag-
uent OF the divided Order.
Yet the poor old forlora Herald which has been
irving all is-well- through the Virginia election
and through all the defeats and disasters OF the party
