T^e news which ?h? brings ii of a rtriei and interesting chtraote?. The reconstruction of the E-gllsh Ministry, with Lord P?lmerston as its chief, Lad given geueral , ?attraction both in Hncland and France. It wot hoped that tfcwt n obit-man's accession to piwer wonid have an important infliiTiicc on the pe&oe conferences at Vienna. From a aote addressed by M. Droojn de L'Haye, the French Minister of Foreign Atffc'rs, to Baron ManWufTsl, it would teem that the alius are determined to leave Priwaia no option bit clthjr to accept the condition* of the teeaty of the 2d?Decembor, or to exclade her from ail than la the "Vienna conferences. The general opinion ia that the will side at once with Russia Holland la aald to have formally joined tho alliance, ?ad Spain and Portngal are expected to follow la her wake. From some opinions of Lard Palmer' ?ton's,* quoted in a letter of one of oar correspon' dents, it appearn that the new English Premier en tertains a conviction that Europe is no* entering ?pon a groat general wer. From the C.imea there is nothing of a decisive eha'acter. No period had a9 yet been fixed for tue aaeanlt on Sebastopol, bat a despatch receive! from Ges.Caarobert describes the French troop] as being exceedingly impatient for it. The Zouaves, never theless, had mutinied, and demanded a retreat from the Crimea. It was said that the ISas ji ins medi tated a general attack npon the allies on tha 10th, and the presence of the Grand Cukes Michael and Nicholas gave some consistency to the rumor. From Spam there ia but little news. Mr. Boole had demanded his passports, bot had bson attacked with Ulneta, and was t:o much Indisposed to quit Madrid. It was reported in that city tnat the Spanish Ambassador at Washington had written heme to say that the American Gabiaet bad no n*a tote designs agate at Spain. Tee Pope is nxcoedingly angry with tbc Sisdi. ? aian government for Its monastic coulisciMoas, t.aJ will probably give elfect to his w.ata by cxcommu' mica ting the Kicg. Before the Ballc's news arrived, ubou. 800 bales of eottoa were so d at full pric-oa. After i; c^i to hand, no sales transpired, and the market was nriwt tled, th<.u*h the confidence of holders did not appear to be the least impaired by it. Tue market for cuffre was active, and closed at an advance of from { c. to 4% ter lb. A very large business was done in su gars, and the unusual amount of sales would seem to indicate some spoonlative movement gco iving oat of a reported short croj in Louiiiana, wita an ticipated distoib&aoe to trade in Cuba, from political causes. The tains embraced fully 3,500 hhds., included ia which were 3 000 hhds. New Or leans and 600 do. Cuba at fnll prices. Molasses waa also active, with sales of 3,000 bbls. New Or leans at 23 3. a 27c. Proviai >ius were aotive. The Bales of pork, of all kinds, reached about 2,000 bblj., ahkfly old and new ihcm with piime vVewtorn mess ? the chief part of the latter to arrive? all at fnll prices. After the news tallow wis held at higher rates. In tlour there was a good business dono be fore the news, at full prio*s, bat subsequently no sales of moment transpired. Wheat wai qnist. Com was at unchanged prices, with limited sa'es. North* m rjeiold at (1 33. The New York Senate yesterday was engag d ii discussing a resolution urging the Ctual Com. nit toe to make inquiry ia rduirenco to the ex cessive expenditures in the improvements of the ?rat section of tue Krie Canal. Tao com mitteo was directed to report as so n as prac. ticable. The Assembly resolution proposing im adjournment in order to accept the iavitation of the Ten Governors, was amended so as to take a re ess from the 17th to the 22d Mirch. Thore is no doubt hut the Assembly will Agree to tha alteration. Tuna four dajs of the session are to ba de voted to a jollification, while at the simetima the necessity of an extra session is urged as imperative. In the Assembly the prohibito ry liquor bil was taken up. Its opponents fought bravely bn: vainly. T;:ey were promptly voted down on every move, and flaaV.y the b?ll passed by a vote of 80 yeas to 44 nay-*. There wore bot four members absent. Twenty demo crata and fourteen whig* voted against vhe bill; only nine democrats vo'.ed for it. lb* 1st of May ia the day design a'ed for this act to go Into effect. It la jnat possible that the -Senate, when the subject Mmes before them, may exteud toe tim i for a lew months. Nothing luither can be looked for. Mr. Blatchford made a report in favor of proh. biting bones and mortgages as a binkiug ba is. There an twenty-six million dollars worth of saomlties in the Baikirg Department, one half of which are b;nde and mortgages. Trere is little doubt bat the report will be accepted, atd the bill carrying oat its lecommendatiors ba enacted into a law. A hill waa reported to reduce the par value of H*r!cm Railroad stock from tlf;y to thhty dollars per shire, to go into effect wherever the stockholders of the company aqiiesce in tbe reduction. A prohibitory Hquor law was parted in tiio Dela ware Qon>e of Delegates yesterdaj.by avoe of eleven to ter.

As far as the prosecution his pro eeded it appears that the prisoner wasseeato strike the deceased with some weapun dir. ins tbe dis urlunce. This circumstance was testified to by one witcps, while several others who testified to seeing Harrison stru k, did not identi y tha accused at the man. The case is still <n. Acetialoit or Loid Palinrrooii to Powti-l aiu I oallluii of lila Cabinet? Struggle between Ilia- KdkUiIi Arlatocraey and the itbuwi. The English Ministry bas been reconstructed ou a basin which, allhoagh looked upoa as a strong ouc, we cannot help regarding <n in eorne degree provisional. With the exception, in fact, of lour changes, there is no alteration in the constitution of the lats Cabinet. Lard Palmerson is appointed Premier in place of Lord Aberdeen; Eul Granville President of ?be Council in place of Lord J oh i Russell; Lord Panmurc Minister at Wur in place of the Duke of Newcastle; and Viscount Canaing Postmas ter General, unier the lite and present admin istrations, obtains a scat in the Cabinet. Mr. 1 Sydney Herbert takes ttic Home, and Sir George Grey the Colonial Department. The post of Secretary at War is to be abolished, and a Parliamentary Under Secretaryship cre ated. to which Mr. Layard, tha explorer of Ninevab, is to be appointed. With some slight modifications in tbe Irish government, Ui<ae are the sum total of tbe results o! the late n inistt rial coup d'ftat. 01 the correctness of this technical descrip tion of that singular event, there cannot now be tbe slightest doubt. The wh'de affair was ooncoctcd and arranged between Louis Napoleon and Lord Palmerston during the visit of the latter to Paris. No winder that this experimental business and i pleasure trip of the noble lord created, as we i were told at the time, so much dissatisfaction 1 in tbe minds ot some of his colleagues. They I had a s&rtwd suspicion that their lively amor iate ' bad some pi ejects ol his own on hand which ren | dercfl a little preliminary consultation with his imperial protege advisable. The indifference of Lord Aberdeen and tbe mismanagement of the Duke of Newcasit hid already doomed the administration. Their downfall ?m c.ily averted for a time by the doubt and hesitation which the critical condition of affair* inspired in the minds of public men. None of the o!d party leaders cared to assume such a weight of trouble and responsibility with so litlle pros pects of success or honor. The AUerucen ministry therefore dragg<*d out its contempti i li'.e exVi tence until omc one wa? found ready to give it the final kick. This tak was imposed upon Lord Paluiers'ou as nmjh by tbe general feeling of th<* ?public as by | tbe suggestions of bU own ambitiox Tnere *ei? , however, some considerations thai m?t!e l,im 1km tote before giving eii?-ct to either, 11?' desired t* be assured in the tiret place that : in the event of his u-^'imiug the reins of go- I MM < nt he wild not oi.ly be strong in the ! ?nf.p< it < 1 the F:n i lament owl people of Great ' Britain, but alsotn that of France. His views ' : of tlie JMCOMtns Oi the prtKebt cri?M) embraced ! ( u wider rar gc of ol>i*et* and m?\in< than any j contt w; l?t< d by tbe timid and indolent laiuJ 1 I of L#rd Aberdeen. To make his path as amo >th j j ns p,h?iiile. and secure the concmrcnce of tltt French Kmpercr in his plant, he went to Paris. Having settled with Louis Napoleon the line of policy to 1*0 pursued in tbe event of his as suming tbe direction of affairs, his next diffi culty was aa to how be should decently t rui nate the ixintence of the ministry of which he waahimtelf a member. Lord John Rnwell, uhuwM evidently ? putj to tbf wttyle iQ trigue, relieved him from any embarrassment he mi^ht have felt on this point, by suddenly re signing and eipomng to public reprobation the weukneM and imbecility of the head of the cabinet. Everits have succeeded la the exiCt ?rder anticipated. The Court party, -with Princc Albert at Us toad, made an ineffectual effort to resist public opinion, by getting the Qu<ju? to send lor Lord Derby, with a view to forming another par ii -colored, do nothing ministry. Lord LHsrby failed, as was i tobe expected, and the Queen was ut last re luctantly compelled to summou Lord Palmer ston to ber councils. Such is the hiBtory of the RusscllPalmerston intrigue ? ab ooo usque ad mala. Although in one sense the new ministry is unquestionably a Btroug one, inasmuch as its biad possesses the confidence beth ot the Par liament and people, and reserves to himself, so far as the war is conrjerued, all the discretion and control neceasat/y to prevent the recur rence of the lame n table failures which the world has lutcly vrKncssed, it is likely that further changes w'Ul have to be made in ite con stitution before long. The disclosures made by Sir Charles Napier, in his recent speech at the Mansion House, in London, and which our roaders will find another co lumn, are of a nature which renders it im possible that. Sir Jumes Graham can be con tinued at the admiralty. The late commander in-chief of ihe Baltic fleet exposes a state of thingB in connection with that expedition which forms a fitting parallel to the indecision, negligence and incompetency which have marked the conduct of the land operations in the Crimea. If anything were wanting to crown the shame and mortification which the revelations of Lord John Russell must have occasioned to Lord Aberdeen and his late as sociates, it is supplied by the withering state ments of the brave old officer whose honor was unscrupulously sacrificed to cover the mistakes of the government at home. With this and one or two o'her exceptions the new ministry will probably satisfy the exigencies of the moment. But it will not be able to meet those further necessities to which the convictions of the English people have been aroused. The appointment of Lord Paimer^ton to the premiership may impart greater vigor to the operations of the war, but it will effect no material alteration in the system which he is colled upon to administer. His lord ship is as much of an aristocrat as Lord Aber deen or Lord Derby, and however pa triotically he may feel* disposed, he will do nothing to prejudice the interests of his order. And yet, without a liberal curtailment of their privileges, no administration can long give satisfaction to the English people. Those privileges have been demonstrated to be incon sistent with the power and influence, nay, even the very existence of Great Britain, and its aristocracy must either submit to reasonable modifications of them, or p?rish, like the old noblesse ot France, in their defence. So long as this danger was only made evident to them by Chartist demonstrations, or the occasional grumblings of Parliamentary radicals, they could aiford to disregard it. But the events of the war have advanced the cause of reform by at least a century. The national mind has been awakened to the perils to which the de estB of oligarchical institutions must periodi cally eapose them; and the press, that mighty lever of public opinion in England, has unani mously pronounced the doom of the aristocracy, by condemning as dangerous to the public weal the privileges that mark them out from the masses. The vigorous prosecution of the war by the prevent administration may retard for a while the full developement of this feeling; but that it must soon find expression in vigor ous action, co one who has attentively watched the progress ot events in Great Britain for the last twelve months can reasonably doubt. Mk. St. John and the Banc Department.? A controversy is being waged in character I istic terms between the two Seward org ins ? the Ttibnne and Times? with regard to the merits of Mr. St. John and the appointment of a Bank Superintendent. The Tribune at tacks Mr. St. John, aud abuses him in round teim&; the Timet defends him and states that the rage ot the Tribune is wholly due to his bestowing upon the Times the advertising pa tronage of the Bank Department. To t his the Tribune replies that the Times' zeal for his defence arises from the same cause. Then the Lieutenant-Governor answers that the ex member dt Congress who edits the Tribune threatened long since to punish St. John for withholding the advertisement from his paper; aid the ex-member of Congress rejoins that the Lieutenant-Governor obtained them for his by a corrupt bargain with St. John, the latter being himself a part proprietor of the Times. From the circumstantiality with which these various statements arc made, there ap pears to be every reason to bjlleve they are tiue. If so, they are interesting as atTordiog a clue to the character of the Seward new-t i papers. I Uic question is not what Sort of a man Mr I St. J?hn is, or what he does with his advertlse i ments ; but is he the b'St man to be Bank 1 Supeiiotend< nt ? Ha* he fulfilled the duties of 1 that office in au efficient ami creditable manner? ! lie is, as we understand and believe, a very worthy man, abounding in Christian virtu-;* ? lie is eaid to possess merits and abilities of a high ord?-r. He gves his advertisements to his ! tW< nds. it appeurs; bnt really this seems to be a matthf into which it is hardly worth wi-ile to inquire, if the advertisements are bi ought before the notice of the public. Ail thisc points, Jwwevtr, have no b aring what ; ever r>u the .questicn of his reappointment; which must depend solely on the degree of (tficicncy and ability display id by him during his pi<st term of office. Now, tbat Mr. St. John has not been an effi cient Bauk Superintendent? that his system has Win bad, and the result most expensive to the public, ate fucta which even his warmest friends cat.m t wboHy deny. They cannot deny that whatever were St. John's merits, while he w?s Benk Snfttrintendent, and charged with the duty of protecting the public, the pablic was not piotected, and several bank fail ares took place by which n.oney was lost that might have Ixxn saved. Tiny cannot deny that money was sgaln lost by the sale of bonds aad mortgage* ia aa unsuitable sol injudicious way, which likewise was done under the system | established by St- John, and by his orders. These thing* are notorious; and it seems tbat they settle the question of the office of Bank BupciinteLdent far more conclusively than any inquiries into what Mr. St. John said or did not saj to tU ei member pf CoaptM who edits thf Tribune y or what he did when he wae ^ p:o_ yriitor of the rimes. The of>^^rj c?rea uoUiiug about Mr. St. John b P',?vtite character, ur hie relations with thf.

Captain Rynders and Mb. TWse anu tub Hbbald. ? The Petersburg (Va ) Soutk Side Drmociat (glad he Is not on the North Bide) in speaking ?f our lite icmarkB that Captain II jailers was competent | to lift up Mr. Henry A Wipe " from the de gradation of tho drunken loafer in the gutter to the dignity of speech which characterizes the Tammany coal-hole," says: ? That in pretty language for a shamel'ss hireling like Janita Gordon Bennett, to uaa to a Virginia gentlemm, ib far bin superior in puiity of private life as In intellect, ability, and patriotism. We presume, however, that at it in uttered i>y a Know Nothing journal, it is all right, and *-he " brethnn" in Virginia must "wallow it. Will the organ bere characterize Mr. Wiae an a " drunken ioaftr ia the gutter," or will It, as becomes a Virjiuia j n per, hurl back the fat>tbo?d and the Manner to the polluied source from which it springs r Our Virginia colemporary finds it con veuicnt, pctbapa to misconstrue oar langaige. We did not say that M r. Wise wan " a drunken loafer in the gutter;" but that he had demeaned himself to that low level in his vulgar epithets against the editor of thiB journal. They were ccrtainly beneath the dignity of a gentleman 6ober. Again, the New Yobk Hrkald is not a Know Nothing organ or hireling, any more than it was a democratic organ in 1852, or a whig organ in 1848. It aims to be the organ of public opin ion, without money and without price ? save the independent support of a generous and intelli gent people. That's all. Let our " South Side" co temporary keep cool, and prepare for the re ception of Captain Rynders from the North side. And we call upon John Van Buren to accom many him. The Friace and the Captain are both wanted in Virginia. THE LATEST NEWS. BY MAGNETIC AND PRINTING TELEGRAPHS. The Prohibitory Liquor Law Passed in the Assembly.

LENT AND HOW IT SHOULD BE KEPT. Yesterday, A*h Wednesday, being the first day of Lent, was celebrated with becoming solemnities in the Episcopalian and Roman Catholic churches throughout the city. At tbe Roman Catholio Cathedral, la Prinoe street, the customaij services of the conjlteor were ( t trictly observed. The observance of this day originated from the an:ient I ceremony of blessing tbe ashes on that day, with which the priest marked a cross on the forehead of the peni tent, saying, at the same time : "Memento, homo, quod pulvis es, et in pulverem re verters. " Literally -. "Remember, man, thou art dust, and ihalt return to dust." Although the celebration of these fait and feast i days are not much observed In this country, ia ; Roman Catholic communities they are regarded as of the utmost importance. Last Tuesday was the end of the carniral, and is known as Shrove tide, a day looked forward to with great Interest in tha "Old Country'' as the season of fun and pancake*. There the wish of old and young Is i 1 et glad Shrove Tuesday bring the pancake thin Or fritter rich, with apples stored within. In tbe Roman Catholic Church the faithful are interdict" i ed, during Lent, from forming any matrimonial alliances whatever. Accordingly, from Sunday preceding Lent to Ash Wednesday, thtre are aaore connubial knots tied than on any other three days In the year. We are in , formed that on last Sunday, in th* Roman Oatlioiic churches in this city, the bancs of a number of unhappy twes, anxious to be made happy ones, were announced from the altar. During the forthcoming six weeks, ending on Easter Sunday, the communicants of the Catholic Church are i expected to abstain from tbs use of fiesh meats, and | other such rarities, and, besides, otherwise mortify 1 their tlnful bodies.
