H?w Vork, \\ < ilnrMiny, Bank Ji, IS4t), The Common Council at Albany?New York Insulted?What's to be Uouel A very umusing incident occurred a day or two Bince at Alhuny, in m hich s< me members of our City Corporation figured rather ridiculously. It iB known to our readers that the Common Council, which has presided over the destinies of New York since the month <f May last, and under whose administration we have seen gross mismanagement in every department of the municipal government, is composed ol gentlemen who have a peculiar penchant for junketing, and for making visits to different cities, on the specious excuse of promoting the interests of their constituents. Thus a portion of them proceeded to Boston, where they were libjar? 1 Ur <?nUHmn*?/4 Kv thu Pnmmnn f!nii ? r?i 1 nf that city, but what was the precise business which called them (hither neither they nor any one else can very distinctly till. It is to be presumed, however, that it was not of a very urgent nature, as their stay was limited to a very short time. It may be (but the business was despatched, and having nothing further to attend to in the " City of Notions," they directed their steps to Gotham again, for the purpose ol attending to their corporation duties. This we say, may have been the case, although it is intimated in some quarters ?doubtless by some evil disposed individuals? that the absence of a good supply oi generous wine at the banquet given t? them there, and the teetotal character ot all the civilities which were ex tenoeu io mem in uie capuai 01 new rmgiana, was the reason w hy our municipal fathers deprived our Boston friends of their company so soon. After this trip a committee of our city fathers went to Washington for the ostensible pur pose of lobbying for the passage of the bit! establishing a branch of the Mint in this city, although we had representatives there whose especial duty it was to attend to that and othei matters connected with the interests of this region of the country. This was a grand junketing. They weie entertained by Mayor Seaton and the Corporation of Washington in a sumptuous manner. Wine was poured out without stint, and our city fathers were delighted with the entertainDieots which they received, to say nothing of the compliments. They met there jolly good fellows ? none of y our Boston teetotallers, but men whs drank ihetr wine and amacked their lips in true aldermanic style. The New York member toasted ai d complimented the Washington members, and were toasted in turn. They had a glorious time, but what ol the Mint bill! Was that passed! No, notwithstanding all the well directed (flirts of our city sages, it was leftover till the next session of Congress; but the city fathers hh(1 n fine time, ana that is satiBtxntinn enough. Their time wus not loet entirely, for they eat and drank to their hearta'content, and, by way ot winding up, intimated to the Common Council that if they would juat come to New York, maybe they would not show them the institutions, and induct them into the way in which we do things in the empire city. It aught be supposed that our city fathers would have been satisfied with their junketing and carousing at the expense of their constituents, and that they would, for the brief remainder of their terms of office, devote themselves to the cleaning ci the streets, and other matters connected with the city government. But they were not, and now we approach the melancholy portion of our story. Matters did not, in the opinion ot our city lathers go on well in the Legislature at Albany. The members of that body, many of them, poor fellows, being unsophisticated country farmers, and rather verdant, as our city sages thought, as to the way of transacting busiress, they, uftei mature deliberation, arrived at the conclusion tbat they would send a committee of their b">dy among ilu m to point out their duties and instrucl them in j>erforming them. The committee, big with ini| ortanee, and bending under the weight of the great responsibility which they imagined was pressing upon th *m, started oft to the capito and went to work in the performance ot theii mission. Various hints were given to the members of both Houses, and many suggestions hinted, that iui h end such measures would be of benefit, and thai others would hare s contrary effect Now how wan ihis friendly and benevolent advice received 1 Nay, how were the pnre-minded an< honest advisers themselves treated I Why, they were treati d most scandalously. Their advice waa thrown in their teeth, and they were politely but aternly informed that they ware impertinent interimddlers with other persons' business, and that they had better go back and attend to their streets, which were knee-deep with mud and filth of a winter's gathering, and give their constituents Fomething of a return for their enormous ateesemei te. Heje was a j?retty piece of impudence, to be Hire?this was a pretty aituation for the aldermenic fathers of New York to be placed in?actually rent about their business with tht ir thumbs in their mouths. What wus to be done in the matter 1 In what way was the wounded vanity of the fathers to be healed 7 Quick as thought a resolve? a nughty resolve was made. The Legislators hnd insulted New York ?n the persons of their Corporation Committee, Mid they must he punished?annihilated Irom the face oi tlie earth?utterly destroyed. Accordingly our famous committee took a drink all around. returned to the city in a much faster manner than they left it, and in solemn conclave laid ttieir grievances before their associates. Re?olutione, breathing fire and fary, were immediately and unanimously passed, the legislature waa dentolished, the insult to the city waa valiantly wiped out, and the sun rose the neitday as usual. We cannot aympathiae with the members whose vanity waa hurt on this occasion Nay, we cannot help thinking that they were served right. We hope the treatment which they received will teach therri to stay at home, and mind their own afluira, and not be running about tram city to city, junketing, carousing, and putting in their oar where it is net needed. Proiiahi.k Rkvoi.wtion in Ca ada.?If the newr papers in Canada are to be believed, or if any de. 1 l>endence can be placed on the declaration of the different j>olitical leaders of either fi ction there, there is every probability of a respectable attempt being made at revolution during the approaching summer, or next full. The violence of the two parties towards each other is increasing every day. This violence takes a character and intensity from that which generally separates men of the same race, but entertaining opposite political views. It is a quarrel of two races, as well as one of a different political opinion. The Anglo-Saxon race of upper Canada, heretofore considered the royalirts, ]>ar rxceltenct, are now in the minority in the colonial government, while the old French race of Lower Canada, who are the more numeroua, possess the control of public a flairs in both the Canadas, and are by no means slow in giving cause to the Anglo-Saxons to grumble. In the conflict between the two races, heightened and increased by political differences, and the possession of the spoils by one p?ity, we should not be surprised to see the connection between Canada and the British government rudely shaken, it not broken to pieces, before the termination of another year. Our government, it seems, has taken proper measures to prevent any interference by, and to enforce the neutrality of our citizens. In fact, on this side of the line we have nothing to do but stand still and wait for the tree to be shaken, and scatter the fruit to those who may come after. If the Canadians do not get up a respectable revolution in It ss than nine months, we shall consider them a noisy, empty set of fellows, who deserve no encouragement at all lrom this side of the border. fasnionam s M(ivk.?ients.?The brilliant opening ot the spring begins to throw splendor upon the movements of fashionable society in thiB great city. Since the inauguration of General Taylor, crowds have been flocking to our city and to our hotels. Everywhere the avenues of fashion display the highest gaiety of areas and appearance. Our hotels arc full. The Irving House, under the splendid management of Mr. Howard, is considered the leading hotel of the season in this latitude. The North ltiver is now open, the railroads are crowded with passengers, and everything betokens one of the gayest and most splendid spriDg seasons which this metropolis has ever experienced. The influx of fashionable travel even begins to show itself in Broadway, among the dry goods stores and the fashionable milliners, and particularly every evening at the theatres and concerts. The greatest pressure continues to be made tohear Mrs. Butler's readings. Every night or morning on which she is announced, the crowd is immense, and hundrrds are obliged to leave, and wait for another opportunity. The Broadway and Bowery are full every night?the other theatres are in the 8mne position; even the re-opening of the Opera by the beautiful Borghese, and that fine tenor, Corelli, presents a brilliant scene, in spits of the past history ol that unfortunate house. Corelli, the new tenor, is decidedly the best tenor and artist we have heard in this city since the time of old Garcia or Montresor. The weather, also, is beautiful about these days, and the dust in Broadway exquisitely fine. There ib every appearance, therefore, that the > epnrg season in the fashionable world will pass off ' with great iclat. t Gf.neral Taylor on Duelling.?According to acme ol the anecdotes published respecting the pej culiar character of General Taylor, it appears that he has a most unquestionable horror of duelling ' and duellers ol all kinds. His refusal to restore the midshipmen to their position, who had recently been engaged in duelling, brings out this point of his moral character in the broadest light. If duelling and duellers nre so much disliked by General Taylor that he re/used to restore two young men to die navy, who had been rngnged in affairs of that kind, how is it poeeible that he can make any appointment to any office, cither foreign or domestic, cf persons who havebren engaged insu;h aflairs in former years! Some of the strong applicants for foreigp missions and domestic berths, according to the lists published in the newspapers, have heietofore been connected with those affairs of honor, end on some occasions in a very conspicuous way. If the accounts furnished of the leelmgs entertained by General Taylor towards duellerp, are true, then those persons have no chance of receiving any appointment, of any importance, under the present adminstration. The Nomination and Kf.jkc. on ok Ma. McGai ohky.?1The rejection by the Senate of Mr. McGaughey, recently nominated as Governor for the new territory ol Minesetn, has created a good , deal of rematk in political circles. In our opini ion, the nomination is a matter of greater curiosity than the rejection. That distinguished gentleman, it seems, made himself known in the last congress, Dy opposing appropriations to carry on the Mexican war. He was one of the emill mi. nonty who considered the Mexicans rijhf, and the Americana wrong, and voted accordingly. How pitch a man came to be nominated by the administration, under the presidency of Gen. Taylor, is a matter of greater curiosity than his rejection hy a sensible Senate. We should like to see this mystery investigated and unfolded. It is probable that the rejected nomtnoe has some remote contingency in his favor, connected, in particular fori iune, with Mr. lowing, of Ohio; but the mystery of such a nomination should certainly be inveatti gated. ' Enlargement of the Battery ?It appears by ' the report of the committee of the Corporation, ' thut the enlagrment of the Battery would cost 1 nearly four hundied thouaatd dollars, and they ' stem to think that this would be a great addition ' to the usual exienditurea which are saddled on r this unfortunate city. No such thing. What is a ' half a million or a mill on of dollars? We want > the Ilaltrry enlarged; we want stone docKs; we > want the expenditures to reach ten,twelve, fifteen, or twenty mill oas of dollars per annum. For ' twenty years past we have been trying to cut down ' I thn ntv hnt finHinir it nf miiw* ?>- 1-- ? determined to go on the other tack, and advocate the greatest outlay possible, and the moat extravagant improvements imaginable. Any party that will premise to increase the expenditures of the city to double the present amount shall have our BUp|K rt. Fkmalb Emigration to California.?What has become of the movement started by the respectable matron of a large female emigration to California! It is time that inch a measure was carried out, before the population of that golden region eat themselves up, become cannibals, and jocec all the characteristics of civilization. At present, probably, there ure niaety males to ten females?an ind cation that it Is absolutely impossible to carry on civilized soc.ety in that region for any length or time with such a disparity between the sexes. A few solitary females, every now ana men, are going tberc to join their husbands; but what are they among so miny savages! Arrival of the Packet Ship Devonshire? Siiokt Passage.?This fine Racket ship, command* d by Capt. H. R. Ilovey, arrived at this port yettcrdey, from London and Portsmou'h. The P. ia almost a steamboat in speed. This passage across the Atlantic was made in 22 i days, and the p. has never been 25 days on any one passage.? Fhe made the last pa usage to London in Ifl days, t?king to that port a Sunday Htrald of Dec- 31, wlm h was the only late pap-er on board, thereby conveying mws to Kurope four days later, at a time whin steamers were sailing weekly.

Those from Panama reached this city yeaterday, in the following telegraphic despatch:? New OnLKins, March 10, ism The steamer Oregon arrived at Panama, on the ii'ti tf February. The Oregon ia the second of Messrs. Howlana iV A spin wall's Pacific mail steamers. She left here in llecember; touched at itio de Janeiro, was detained there several days; went through the Straits; touched at Valparaiso, Callao and Payta; and reached Panama on the 28th ult. This places her on a nar. in sneed. with her mate, the sn'.endid steamer California. She is commanded by Capt. Pearson, and immediately takes her place in the line, to run between Panama and San Francisco. The accounts from San Bias state that the mail steamship California had arrived at that place. The following is an extract cf a letter to Wm, H. Aspinwall, Esq., trom Capt. Cleveland Forbes, who left Now York in command of the California. He has been obliged, n will be recollected, to surrender his command from ill health, but still remains on board, to give such_ assistance as he may be able :? San Blai, Mexico, Feb. 14,1849.

Some dissatisfaction had been excited among the inhabitants, by an attempt to introduce coppei money. Additionally to the above, we take the following from the New Orleans Crtucent, of the 12th inst.; The echr. W. II. Hazzard, Capt. Saunders, arrived last evening, from Chagres, having left that port on the 2<?th ult. We learn from Captain S that the British mail steamer sailed from Chagres on the 2">fh ; the brig Perfect arrived from this port on the 2f>th. The same gentleman reports about three hundred passengers at Panuma, and oue ship, name unknow n, was to leave Panama about the 1st instant, and one ship was fitting up also for passengers, hoth hound for Sun Francisco ? There had been no later arrivals from the El Dorado. Flour was selling at Panam* at $40 npr barrel.

Theatrical and Ittuleal. Bowerr Theatre.?The comedy of the "Fast Men' was repeated last evening, before a very well attended house, and paeeed off with the same eclat whloh attended its reception on Monday evening. J. H.

The festival opened with tbe overture ''Midsummer Night's Dream,'' the composition of that great master, Mendelssohn, the immortal author ol those grand musical epics. St Paul, and Elijah. Some of the passages In this overture are exquisitely flue, and were brilliantly executed. The grand duet on the piano and violin on themes from the opera of "Fra Diavolo," by Miss Adeleaed Mr. Charles Hehnstook, was a very scientific performance, and called forth lond applause. Slgnortna Borghese was most deservedly ouo'sd In a rondo brlll'ante, and Slgaoi Taffsnelll was most enthusiastically applauded, and encored also. The " Bird Cauxonette" on tbe piano, byMissAdele Hehnstook, was a sweet performance, and affrrded much delight to the audience; while the duo by Signer!

While tbe overture was being played, we called to mind the great, hut unassuming man from whose rich conception it had emanated, and who was out off in tbe prime of manhood, and In tbemidstof his high and wellmerited professional honors; and we were forcibly reminded of the emphatie language of Byron?

Among the various plaintive and thrilling balladsseleoted for the occasion are '-John Anderson, my jo,'* "A Home in the Heart," " Lament of the Irish Emigrant," "The Death of Warren," and many other gems, whloh his natrons bare so often beard with pleisure and delight. Mr. Dempster has a sweet tenor voice, which he uses with the greatest vocal ability. His style and manners are prepossessing, and wherever he has given his entertainments the audienees have been select, and bis reception the most enthusiastic. We hope his concert this evening will be as liberally patronised as hie talent* as a vonaltat deserve Concert or the young Luioi Elena ano iiis 1 Brother.?These two young and talented artistes, lately arrived from the classical and sunny shores ol Italy, will give a great concert at the Apollo room* on Saturday next, the 24th Inst. The French critics speak very highly of these youthful performers, and. by all accounts, they are perfect prodigies.
