There .ire two parties in England, equally op* po?ed t.) the independence of Iielund, the whigs and the conservatives There is a number of Irishmen in both par ies. These men are, as we have ?a d, rqua.ly opposed to the repeal oJ the act of union. O'Connell ha?, since 1340, deehtred that nether party had his confidence, and tint any hiahtnau who joined them could not have h>? support, " even tl" he were his own brother." .All this time 'he tories l>ave been in power, except f >r a very brief period.

Th-- question will be a*ked, what is the cause ol O'Connell's sudden conversion 1 We shall fii st say what we think is not the cause. We do not believe that O'Connell expects, or wu-.'d accept place undertha government.? II.J l';is sieadily refused olfice all his life, and it i-i now too late for him tochnnge, on the threshold of th?i grave. Uesides, in a pecuniary point of view, kud otherwise, the voluntary annual tribute he reC'eHres, and the position he occupies as loader of a nation, are of far more solid gratification than the emoluments or the honors of any government oltice. He cannot '.-xpect to obtain repeal of the union from the present administration. Lord John Rus-cll has often declared that repeal is totally out of the question. He evidently looks upon the repeal agitaton as a game O'Connell is playing lor the purpose of obtaining something elseIn this light ho will undoubtedly treat it. O'Connell, therefore, cannot expe to attain his darling object by paying court to Lord John Russell. O'Connell is not what no was. Years have come upon him, and age jas lately done ii3 Wt>rk upon a constitution once singula 1 y robust. The dark shadow of approaching dissoluti n is on his once dauntless spirit.? That timidity incidental to age has beset him ' in the m.dst of his powerlut endeavors for the d sunt hral meat of his country. He is now become averse to troublesome dj?i utations wiib the gove nuieut, and ho is disposed to make terms for an instalment cl the liberties of his country, whore, a few years ago, he would not have treated lor ary h tig less than the whole. In the itifir in iy ol li s olU ago, tUe honinge done him by both whi^' and tory journals, is as swuet incense in his nosirils, and he is disposed to bandy compliments Willi those whom lie lias once met in all ttie panop y cf invective. He cannot repeat tho experiment of the monster meetings, and he is disposed o take Irom the government what is given him, and Or- thankful. lie has even secretly made up his mind to take something less than repeal, if repeal 1)3 unattainable by aiiy liut the easiest means. There are other considerations. He is courud by the whigs, and he teels it. He is now 111.Ik and honey where before ho was gall and worm-wood. His first object is to leave the succe?-:o;i of his leadership to his son John, and by c wl '--c og with tho whigs this can be most easily < ti -cted. O'Brien is opposed to the whigs? ill ii is?lie is a nationalist only, and therefore, if O'Connell be only a nationalist, it is but an cVimi ra--e between John O'Coimell and Smith O'Brien., If O'Connell can obtain any goi^d for lie and by coalescing with the whigs,it will so far tike the wind out of O'Brien's sails, and John O'Coimell may, at his father's death, ride in triumphant on his father's service*. Besides all thi-*, O'Connell remembers the politeness of the wings of the Melbourne administration. He rttinurliUei* that his relatives, even to the third uou lourm tfiuuve, were promoted to omce t>y l,jr<i Noiinanby, and the prospect of similar treatmoot by the now Lord Lieutenant Lord I3t ?bolough, till* his mind wub the most soatlung and urbane feelings towards the present administra- ( tion. Ail thej-e causes units to render O'Connell more dis,- o^ed to treat with the whigs (or i )ino go->dio Ireland. The inconsistency of his present and former sentiments towards the whigs, was continually kept before hi* eyes in the speeches of the "young Ireland" party. They boldly called upon O'Connell to redeem his pledges, and reject all connection with the whigs. At .tliii" O'Connell's jealousy took tire. To be lectured by a set of young men, he could not endure. To be crossed in his dailing object of a coalition with the whigs, and the consequent succession of lus son John, was not to be boine. rvn.: i - - v.. v until w?? ucuuming awitwarcUy popular, anil he must bo got rid of Of the means ndoptrd lor this purpose, we have before spoken. This is enough on Irish aflairs. NaTIO.mai. Cot'HTK&iks.?There are in our harbor, at this time, four foreign vessels of war?three from Holland, and one under tUe flag of Spain.? The Dutch vess Is arc at anchor off the Battery. On*" of the Hollanders arrived a fortnight since, and paid the UMial complimentary salute, but was t reated with neglect. The salute of the others was, after a disgraceful delay, returned from a fort in the harbor. Now we think it proper to ask whether we are not, nationally, on the best of terms with Holland, and if ?o, why has that government been insulted, and wby,have we been disgraced 1 In former years we have had the ship-of-the line North Ca rolina moored off the battery, to salute al new comers?to exhibit to our fellow citizens from the west, who support the navy but seldom see it? to exercise officers and men, and keep all hands in good health, and to save the ship from the dry rot. This year our harbor is left without its most attractive ornament?our visiters are insulted? the real well wishers of the navy are disappointed?the ship suffers an hundred times the pccu- | niaiy loss by rot?the seamen are smothered, the | boatmen lose their lively shillings, and parsimony reigns to tiir dis^face of the country. We believe that 11 our Secretary of the Navy knuw of this lie would I,, ve ordered th* North Carolina off the battery early in the season. Why ,t that it..

MPPW-W LJMJMI lUI.'HI J JULJL . 111.1.U Mtt**** w ?An>?ee ?-0m readers are Htvare, We prosttmr, that a short time sine,* the government issued proposal* for the formation of a company, or regiment of sappers and miners, to be composed exclusively of mechanics, and which, when completed, would be mustered into the service of the United States, and lake part in prosecuting the existing war against Mexico. A* always has been the case with American citizens when called to the defence of their country, the number of mechanics required by the government for the proposed service was readily enrolled and mustered into service. The call had not to bo repeated, for at the first summons the required number of men tendered their services, and left their homes, their families, their old associations, and every thing hat a near and dear to them, ani took up the line of march for the enemy's country. So far?very good. vv mie uiese patriotic cuizrns are enuueu w uiu fullest credit lor the alacrity with which they obeyed their country's call, it must not be supposed that I y enrolling themselves among their country's defenders, they are for ever lost to the socieiy they left behind them, or that they deprived themsrlves of those rights and privileges which are the birthright of every individual born on American soil. This is far from being the cuse in the United States, although it is lamentably so in Europe. It behoves, therefore, the Government to throw its to.-terijig arms around those ol our citizens who rush to the cannon's mouth to serve and delond their country, and sea that they are protect! d in all iheir rights and privileges. We have been induced to in ke these remarks by reading the complaints made by the privates . of the new regiment company of sappers and miners, that we have referred to above. From what we have heard, the persons composing this regiment, are daily misused. This regiment was formed upon the condition that its members would, when organized, be on a superior footing to tho soldiers of the army, that they would receive higher pay than privates, and that they would receive a regular education under the United Suites Government, and be provided with everything necessary to conduce to their com On these conditions they enlisted, and entered the service of the United States for five years ; Uut when the facts of the case became known, it was discovered that certain persons in the employ of the government had sadly misrepresented the prospects of theso, our fellow citizens, who, tho moment they were under tho control of their superior officers, discovered, to their sorrow, that the glorious prospect under which they enlistedf vanished like a dream; and that instead of being superior in any respect to privates, tliey were only equal to them in point of rank, and inferior to them in point of comfort and enjoyment. If their represertations are to be credited, their clothing is poor and insufficient. Their diet is meagre and unpalatable, and their general treatment far different from what they expected when they joined the regiment. Misrepresentations were resurted to for the purpose of scilucing theso men from their quiet pursuits and avocations, by those empoweied by the government to enlist them, and the consequence is, that the best amoi>g them are finding themselves deceived. iiow inert? is no question uiu uiut wie government would never countcnance any proceeding of this nature on the part of its employees; but that such a proceeding has been resorted lo in the ease we have mentioned, there probably can be no question. How important, therefore, it is for the Secretery of War, ar the President, as the case may be, to employ Rone but persons of known character and respectability, who, by their pieviouslife and conduct, are incapable of resorting to such underhand means of filling the ranks of companies required by the government in prosecuting the war, lor a service like this. The New York Pu.ot-I^aunohks?No neglect or injustice can abate the zeal of the New York pilots to maintain their well-known superiority in skill, industry, and character. On the contrary, the blind opposition of the underwriters, and a few of their pensioners, has only tended to increase ihe energies of the pilots in serving the real interests of the commerce of the country. Not to be surpassed by any vessel afloat, Capt. James Mitchell, of this port, without the aid of the underwriters' coffers, has built and launched, at r>altimore, on the 6th inst., a pilot boat of the followii g dimensions, viz i fifty-three feet ketl, eighteen feet f?ur inchesbeam, seven feet depth of hold, measuring about seventy tons, and drawing ahout nine leet aft and six feet forward. She is named the P.ivid Mitchell, after a former pilot mill hnrlmr nnul^r nf flii* rmrf wlin in In* <lnr was most highly esteemed. The newspapers of Baltimore are in ecstacies i of admiration of the modwl of this vessel; and her builders, Messrs. John A Robb & Co., have immortalized themselves by improving upon the famous " clippers" of that port, which have been unrivalled. Mr. Robb served his lime in New York, and has obtained an enviable rep tution i for his skill, promptness, and moderate prices.? We congratulate the readers of the Herald upon this accession to the fleet of New York pilot boats ; for, during the inclemencies and shipwrecks of last winter, they were ever on the alert lor duty, to succor the distressed, and to beat allcreaiion Ln bringing us the latest news. We wish the David Mitchell, her gallant Captain, and her skilful builders all sotts of good fortune. The magnificent packet ship New World, was launched liom McKay's ship yard, at East Boston, on Tuesday last. The New World is the largest merchant ship ever built in the United States. She was modeled and constructed under the immediate superintendence of Captain Wil liamSkiddy, of New York, who is to command her, and than whom tliero is not in the country an individual who combines greater skill as a merchant, as a shipbuilder, and as a seaman, or who has higher qualifications as a gentleman. We venture to assert that the New World will be a lloating palace?combining every known improvement, with all that is comfortable and elegant. She is to sail from thia port, and her success is certain. Our New York shipbuilders must have a care for their well-earned laurels. Boston and Baltimore present powerful competitors. General Taylor not yet a Candidate for th* 1'rf.sidkncy.?By letters addressed by this hero to George FoUom, of this city, and D. M. I^ensinring and others, of Philadelphia, it appears that he has no desire to receive the nomination for the next presidency. General Taylor truly remarks j that the agitation of this question in his present responsible situation, would tend to embarrass . him in successfully prosecuting the existing war with Mexico. We agree perfectly with the Gencrnl in his remarks, lie must not have any obsta" cle thrown in his wuy to end the war, but like a patriotic citizen, as he is, he must consider himself at the disposal o( his fellow-countrymen when the war is concluded. sfkamsuir Southerner.?In our notice of this vessel yesterday, we ommitted to state that she was built for the able and enterprising firm of Spofford, Tilotson & Co., of this city, in conjunction with Captain Berry. The hull was constructed by the well-known and scientific naval architect, W. H. Brown, Esq. ; the engines?a credit to the mechanical genius of the country? by Messrs Ward, Stilltnan It Co. of the Novelty Works. We understand that a large number of her state rooms are already engaged for her first trip, on Saturday next. mmmmmmmmmmrnmmmmmimmmmmmmm lwriMifftw r*o* Tin Btm?w Wi?t T ??***The schooner < ?lob?, Capt. ^relcy, tmlvtnl y?su?rday, from Demerara, bringing ut filet c' the Georgetown Gaz<ttct to the !i4th ult.f The only items ol interest to the American people, are a few paragraphs upon the workings of the Cooley system. Tlie system, under its present organization, seems to harmonize but little with the general feelings of the inhabitants, and from what we can learn, the good effects, so publicly and loudly indulged in, have fell far short of the expectations of us originators. An entire change in the existing rule*, for the better management of the Coolit-s in the West Indie*, is, or has been made. From a circular or order issued by ihe Governor, the planters of Trinidad are prohibited to admit to permanent employment any Indian laborers present i.g themselves for service, unless they can furnish from their late managers (rather master*) a certificate, a regular discharge, and a strict account of their conduct while under their control. This certificate may be withheld from the poor Indian or negro until it suits the capr ce or convenience of the employer.depriving him iri the meantimeot aMrueans 01subsis'ence. This is hutone instance ol'the justice of the ooly system. Many such evidences can be produced, which stamps it as one oi the blackest and wor-t sp'*cit*? of slavery; fostered nn<l encouraged by the t>tiil tnlhropy and love Great LSritmi to 'he iiinrinrj race, we remember relating u cu*?; which occurred a few weeks since at Tiinidad, on the nrrivnl of a cargo of Coolies, which, in point <it crin Iry unit inhumanity, is equal to nnv we hive ever hvard of? husbands separated from their wives, parents , frern their children, brothers from their si?ters, and all family ties mptur?d and disregarded by the sympathisers of the blnck rare. As another ! evidenC'*, we give a few of the rules lately adoptby the Governor ol Trinidad "1? It is recommended that no Manager should allow Coolie* to go on leave without furnishing them with a Tick, t signed by himself. specifying tho name, period of leave and locality to l>e visited. 4? Coolies, whose contract ha* expired, and who re fuse to renew with their late employers, are, notwithstan.lirg tiul li iju/I thrir tslalet unlit th-y b' firit fur. nith'il ux'rA difSarge certificalrt, in which the due nd. | jUMiront of thei) accounts i* to he noted, together with an- particularly had or good conduct for which they may, dining ti e year, huve been remarkable." [r is not a' all likely that these poor coolies will evi'r g.-t their certificates ol discharge from their ;a*lc r.rasters. Theatricals, Tabx THr*T*ic.?" Richard III." wn performed last evening to a crowded house, with all the stage effect given it by the gorgeous costumes, scenery and appointments used in its production last winter. We have already said that Mr. Kean's Oloster is, in our estimation, unmatched at presont on the stage. It was last evening as effective as usual The part of Elizabeth was clothoa with new beauties in the hanls of Mrs Kean. Wo cannot speak too highly of Miss Denny's impersonation of Prince Edward. The part was played better than we have ever seen it played before. Her sister's Duke of York was equally good. Dyott's Richmond was excellent. Stark's Buckingham was a very respectable piece of acting, although it might have been bettor. To night " Richard III." is repeated, with the farce of " The Barrack Room," in which Mr*. Kean takes the part of . Clarissa. To-morrow evening Mrs. Kean's benefit. Bowkrt Tiikathk.?The tragedy of the "Wife" and 1 the drama of the "Si* Degrees of Crime,* were performed at thil tboatre last evening to a very crowded house. Miss Dean as Mariana, tho wife, performed her part in a very creditable manner, and drew down repeated rounds of applause. The same may be said of Mr. Clarke, who took the part of Leon Gonzago, and of Mr. Booth, as Kerrurdo Gou/.ago, both of whom have earned a very flattering reputation. The drama of "Six Degree* of Crime," wound up last evening's performances. The bill this evening is "Komeo and Juliet," and the "Carpenter of Rouen " Miss Dean appears to great advantage ns Juliet?indeed, we consider it bar best character. ' Mr. Clarke will tako Komco, Mr. Neifie, Mercutio. This is an admirable cast, and one that will guarantee the tragedy being successfully played throughout. Greenwich Tiilatre.?Under tho liberal and efficient management of Mr. Freer, tho Greenwich Theatre has emerged from a s tate of comparative obscurity to be one of the best places of amusement in the city. Mr Kreer, at the commencement of his career, pledged himself to omit making no exertion to please hia patrons. The manner in which he has succeeded may he Judged I rum the patronage he receives. Mrs George Jones appaars here this evening as Mrs. Hollar, in " The Mran- t ger;" Mr. Freer, Mr Stevens, Mr Chapman, Mis* Drake, I and the rest of tho company, taking the remaining characters.
