In calculating the probable effects of the sntici-
pated war in Italy upon ourselves will hardly do
10 take the late Crmean war as our standard. The
theater of that war was distant region, which
neither England nor France could reach except by
long water-carriage that being the only means
for transporting thther, not only the men and mill
tary stores but provisions for the troops and
every article needed for the prosecution of the cam
paign OF course a vast amount Of shipping was
called into requisition, a demand of which our
shpowners felt the benefit not merely in the direct
employment given TO their vessels IS transport

Nothing of this sort can be expected from tn
present war Neither AustrAns nor Ssrdinians
can have any occasion for transportation BY water
Their troops are slresdy face to face in the des-
tined field of contest. The French troops will also
enter Italy mainly by land. A part Of them will
be sent BY water from MsyseIles and Toulon to
Genos; but the passage is short-not more than
twenty-four hours for stesmers-and, BY frequent
passages forward and backward, q small number Of

REUNION OF THE NEW.YORK DE-
MOCRA(K.

For a couple of weeks past there have been
oracular givings out from Washington, that the
Democracy of this State is about to be reunited
on basis so satisfactory to the negotiators as to
insure success at our next November Election,
preparatory to national victory in 1850, in which
New.York is to lead the van. The reported visits
Of prominent politicians to Washington to adjust
the details of reunion of the party in Ne1- York
look as if its fragmentary factions were to be
cemented by what Pickens called the cohesive
power of public plumber" If a license to steal
public money at pleasure is necessary to the re-
union Of the party here, then, undoubtedly the
White House is the very place where the nuptals
should be celebrated, our venerable President
officiating at the altar, while Secretaries Toucey
and Floyd give away the bride.
five are not mistaken, We have heard some
thing about the "unon and harmony" Of the New
York Democracy before 1t has been reunited on
"a satisfactory basis " nearly every year since the
memorable ruptures of l547 and IS4s, when, in
the former year. at Syracuse, the lunkers rejected
1.-THE cornerstone" and, in the latter the Barn
burners, at Buffalo, took the Tennis Court oath 10
II fight on and fight ever for Freedom, til glori-
''ous victory crowned their exertons"
Something of the sort indicated in these Wash
ngton reports, is probably going on at the Capital
The Democracy are in q strait. Pennsylvania is
lost TO IT, New-York must be secured, or the
Presidency falls into the hands of the Opposition.
Let US trace tie history of these Democratic re-
unions in y ,w-York.
Seven or eight years ago, William L. Marcy,
Horstio Seymour, Lorenzo b. Shepard, and their
associates, found that they could make more BY
eoalcscipg with the Barnburners than by lighting
them. John Van Buren,, Dean Richmond Isaac V.
Fowler and their associates came to the like con-
cluscn in regard TO the Hunkers. Thereupon, the
heads Of both factions advocated reunion Of the
party-it was still suffering from the violent dis
ruptions Of lsi7-iS-on the basis Of the Pickens
" cohesive platform. This practical and pro6ta-
bic solution of difficulties that blocked the road to
victory, both State and National, commended itself
to shre~d operators like Marcy, Seymour, Stryker
and Corning on the one hand, and Richmond, Fow-
Ter, Cagger and Church on the other After some
higgling about terms, and some qualns. not Of
conscience but Of consistency, copartnership was
formed the articles whereof were few and explicit,
viz: Ignore all old terms Hunker and Barn
burner" and assume the 6rm-nsme of " Soft"

CUSTOMS UNION WITH CANADA.

The Canadians, or some Of them, appear to be 80
well satisfied with the workings of the Reciprocity
act as TO desire still closer commercial connec-
ton with us.
During the late session Of the Canadian ParIa-
ment, the Committee on Trade and Commerce,
after complaining Of the consular fees lately I'M
posed BY the United States authorities, and ques-
tioniDg their legality, proceeded to suggest a Gus
toms Union with the United States, on the plan, it
would seem, of the German Customs Union, by
means of which the Custom-House establishments
maintained on both sides of the Canadian frontier
might be entirely dispensed with. Though not
formally proposed, it 10 thrown out as matter
worthy of consideration whether the interests and
convenience of Canada, the United States and
Great Britain would not be promoted by the adop-
ton on the part Of Canada Of the tariff Of the Uni
teStates, the removal Of oil Custom House estab-
hsbmen's between them, thereby saving q
large expense and the collection Of duties on inn
ports into Canada at the port Of Quebec only, the
entire duties collected on the Atlantic seabOard to
b. divided between the Treasures Of Canada aud
the United States, in proportion to the population
of the two countries-the same rule adopted, il
We reeoIect Alright for the division of the proceeds
Of the tariff of the German Customs Union.
Without stopping now to consider how far the
political advantages Of this scheme might be an
offset, 40 far as the United States are concerned
to mere commercial considerations, the proposal o.
it seems to have in view the idea OF making Quebe,
