ARRIVAL or 'WE STEAMSHIP 3PBANKLIN. 'Vtfl'B PATS fcATEn FROM EUROPE. The United States Mail Steamship Frank lin, arrived at New Vork on Monday morn ing, about 2 o'clock, from Havre and Cuwes, being twelve days from the latter place. She left Havre on the morning of the 2d inst., and Cowcs nt midnight of the sane day. She bring more than a hundred pas nongora, and between six and seven hundred tons of valuable French, Swiss, and Belgian goods, said to be worth from seven to nine million francs. The lalest'l.oiidon papers are of the 2d inst. With reference to the World's Fair, we learn that a considerable falling off In the number of visitors was perceptible, occasion ed by the intense heat or the weather, and by the insufficient ventilation in tha Crystal Palace. The Commissioners had set about the task of remedying this defect, and there was no doubt their cfTorts would be attended with success, as largo spaces, for the admis sion of fresh air, were to be opened both on the ground floor and in the galleries. By these means it was hoped that the tempera ture of the interior would be kept below that of the outside of the building. On Saturday, the 28th ult., 1,500 sterling was taken from the five shilling visitors, and the number of persons who entered the doois was 11,501. On Monday, the JOl'n, the one shilling visi tors contributed 2,469, and 52.87!) people entered the building. 'On the following day the attendance was 51,069, and the amount "talce-fi at the doors 2.429 10s Od. The Lord jilayor gave a magnificent enter tainment on Saturday, the 28th ultimo, to the Royal Commissioners of the Exhibition. Lord John Russell, Earl Granville, and many other notabilities, were present, together with many foreign guests of distinction-, but we do not observe the names of any Ameri cans amongst the list of guests furnished by ine London Times. A terrific military riot broke out in Liver pool on rhe 1st inst., the 91st regiment hav ing attacked the police. The riot was sup pressed after a time by-tho energy of the authorities, but not before several men had been killed and ma'n'y dangerously wounded- The Earl of Derby died on the 30th ult., and his eldest son, Lord Stanley, (the cele brated leader nf the protectionist party in the tipper house,) succeeds to the title as the fenrtcenlh Earl of Derby. VnncK of the Emigrant Smr Halcyon. Wo regret having to record tho loss ef the American emigrant ship Halcyon, which sailed hence on the 17th tilt., with upwards of 300 passengers, principally Irish and Ger man emigrants, for New Voi k. The whole of the passengers and crew, with the excep tion, of One woman and a child, were provi dentially rescued from a Watery grave, hav ing boon humanely taken on boaid, almost in the last extremity, of the New Voik ships, Connecticut, Captain Latham, and the Wil liam H. Wharton, Capt. Gates, laden with cotton, on their passage to Livoipool. Tlio Halcyon encountered a heavy gale on the Rlh inst., longitude being about 57 i and lati tude 42. within five ot six days' sail of New York. The ship, from a succession of dis asters, became totally disabled ; and, not withstanding the exertions and skill of Cap tain Wade and his officers; to which the whole of tho passengers we have conversed with bear willing and eager testimony, those on board would most inevitably have per" ished, had not the vessels alluded to have rendered timely assistance. FRANCE; Our accounts from the French capita! ex tend to the 1st instant inclusive. The trade of Paris had considerably improved during the previous week, in consequence of the arrival of great numbeis of foreigners from LonJon. The accounts received from the manufacturing towns, were equally favora ble, all the manufacturers being in full work. There is said to bo a decided improvement in tho public taste, resulting from the. Lon don exhibition. By telegraph, from Paris to London, we carn that the President of tho Republic left Paris on the morning of the 1st of July, to be present at the inauguration of Ihe rail way from Tours to Poitiers.

He was extremely well re ceived by the population on lib arrival- The President of the Republic reached Tours shortly after 12 o'clock, and was re ceived with loud acclamations by the popu lation, the National Guards, ami troops of the garrison. The Prince breakfasted ut Tours and was to arrive ut Poitiers at 4 o'clock. P. M. On Sunday, the 29th June, M.

EXTRACT OF A I.KTTEtl FROM THE EDI TOR, DATEW Columbia llousie.'CAPt Island, ) Cape May, July 14, 1851. f The tide of visitors fb this celebrated wa tering) or rather bathing'placc, is now nearly at it height, end in a few weeks the hotels will all be well filled. Visitor are pouring in every day by hundred, and there are probably 3000 -persons here. On Saturday no less than three steamers left Philadelphia, bringing down probably not less than five or wx hundred passengers. The Columbia House, which is considered the most fash ionable and best kept, is always trie first to fill up, but Mr. ltarwo6d generally manages lo accommodate the most who call. The Susquehanna valley is pretty fully represent ed, Ihe number is increasing every year. There are seven or eight individuals here from Sunbury. Some from WilliamfpOrl, Milton, and other place?. "Competition for travellers has brought down the fare t6 a very low figme. There are now five boats running between Philadelphia and Cape May. The opposition boats, the "Thomas Powell" and the "Uoger Williams," carry passengers at one dollar, carriage hire included The Powell is tho largest as well as the fastest boat on the line, and is commanded by able nnd obliging oflicern. The new road from the landing, in the bay, to Ihe sea shore is a great improvement on the old sand road. It is about two miles and a half long, and as straight as an arrow. Cape May, or rather Cape Island, as the town is called, owes its "rifte 'aits' progress-' altogether to its grenj celebirty rib k bathing plaeo, and its cool and refreshing 'breezes. As you approach Ihe place yon dan smell, and almost feel Ihe salt and moislnepS of the atmosphere, which is deemed so healthy and invigorating to inva lids anil those 6f impaired health. The surf here is said to be finer, than any other plaeo known, and nothing can be better than the broad and level beach cf pure white sand. This beach over whieh the "suVf rolls at high tide, forms an excellent rdad the next twelve hours for pleasure carriage's and promena ding. There is something awfully sublime to look upon ami contemplate the broad ex panse of the majestic, ocean, a liackless waste of three thousand miles. There are few indeed that would not view with admi ration and with awe, the never ceasing and ever rolling waves, only breaking their crests at the. culminating point, near the shore. Cape May is unlike any town I ever saw. It is in fact a town made up of hotels and boarding houses. Thu hotels are generally huge white frame buildings, with high porti coes running along lite front and sides. The hotels are generally well kept. Boarding, ut the first class houses, amounts to about SI I per week, though good accommodations can be had as low as from So lo $7. The Ixiurs of bathing are from 4i lo S-i in the morning for gentlemen with or without dress. At about II A. M., the great scene of bathing lakes place, when sometimes a thousand per sons can be seen in the water. 1 had an op portunity last evening of seeing thu full moon rising, as it were, out bf 'he sea. It is a beautiful sighl and only equalled by the risii.g sun. Skiuous AcctrKN-r on the Foirtii. A shocking accident occurred at Fuedensbuig Oley lovvnsiiip, early on the morning of the 4th, while several young men were engaged with a large camion in firing a salute in honor of the day. Several rouiuls had been fired in rapid succession, when, as two of the party, Henry Dengier and hnnon I'eiter, each about twenty years of age, were about reloading, ihe charge prematurely exploded, before the rammer had been withdrawn, and wounded both of them very seriously. The ri utit hand of young Dengler was so .Ireadfiilly shattered, that it had lo be am putated nbcvB Ihe wrist ; ami his face and breast were also severely burned. Ueiter lost two lingers from his If ft hand ; the two other fing ers of the same hand were broken, and tho arm was badly burned and wouu- led. Timely surgical assistance was ob tained, and hopes were indulged that the in juries would not prove fatal ; although at last accounts Dengler was still m a preca rious state; Rec.din" Guf.fltc.

Four hundred troops had b'ocii despatched by the Mexican government to enforce the depaituid of the Americans from Ihe Isth mus of Tehaunlepec.

The English brig Flib'berty, from the Cape of Ooort Hope, arrived yesterday, bringing dales to the lSih frlay, which are nearly two weeks later than our last previ ous accounts via England. The English steamer Vulcan had arrived at the Cape, with 700 troops on board, and several additional detachments from Eng Innd were expected. The war still ronlin. lied, but the English troops, notw ithstanding they had Ven considerably reinforced, were making "hut little headway. 'Capt. Tylden had aWvere battle with a large Kaffir force, in which the latter lost over 200 killed, be sides many wounded. The loss of the English was inconsiderable. Several additional detachments of levies had been raised, and some of these had marched on I lie 28th April for Ihe interior, which was infested by Kaffir nnd Hottentot marauders. Several skirmishes had taken place between these detachments and the rebels, in one of which the English troops, under Major Dotiovaiu defeated tiie rebels with a loss of over 300 killed. The Katlirs still continue obstinate, with no disposition lo seek 'terms of peace, and all kinds of business at Cape Town was at a stand still. TIIK MKXIl-.lX VLAtni. The Washington correspondent of tTi'e New York Express, under date of the 10th, says ; "I have Seen to day a foretaste of the claims which the Government of Mexico is preparing against the Government of the United States, for not fulfilling the terms of the treaty of San Luis Potosi. These claims are coming here in shoals, nnd those 1 saw- to day in the taints of a single individual were lo the amount of SI 1.000. The gen lleman who held them was a Mexican, and in his opinions, the whole amount of new claims will exceed sixteen atilliaas nf dol lar ! ) "They grow out of a violation of the arti cle of the Treaty, by whieh the United Slates was pledged to protect the Mexicans on tho frontiers from Indian depredation and spoliations.

Tnnuhtct! fn-iD Ihr C-titiierile Il;ivr. .luiie'-'G. l'OSSESSIO. Of TIIK 1IOI.Y KErilXllllE. letters from the Levant announce that a question has been raised between France and ihe Ottoman Porte in relation to the possession of the Holy Sepulchre. The French Ambassador claims it for the Ro man Catholics, while the Porto replies that the Sultans have always attributed its own ership to the Greeks, and that it is therefore Impossible to take it from I hem. Here is something more than a mere reli gious fact. A political question of the fust importance is invo'ved. ihe possession of the Holy Sepulchre yiehted to the Greeks, is the abandonment of the protectorate of the Cliristains in the East, exercised by France from time immemorial ; it is, at the same time the intrusion of Russian influence in the affairs, not of Turkey, but of the Chris- tain East, which is a very dillrirent ihin. It is known that the Emperor of Russia con siders himself, and is considered by the schismatic Greeks, as the spiiitual chief of the Greek Church Catholic; , but not Ro4 man. Whatever is done hi Turkey by the Greek schismatics against the temporal au thority of the Sultan, and against the French protectorate of the Christians, results to the advantage of tho C.ar. It is lo be hoped llkal the French Government will open its eyes to the jflots which am in operation lo deprive it of one of i!s most precious prero gatives in the East. SixocLAK Pkath.

Masser, Esq.., Dear Sib ; It having been erroneously nssoited in a public print, that most of the persons who were signers of the Protest against the nomination of James Campbell as Judge of the Supremo Court, have recant ed their p-rotest and subscribed to a paper agreeing to support h'13 nomination, I feel it to be my duty, that I may not be mis understood, to make it public through you, that I still adhere to the opinions nnd prin ciples expressed in that Protest. I signed that paper from a sense of duty and princi ple. I therein asserted that James Camp bell was incompetent, nod 1 can not see that his nomination has 'renrternd him competent or made him fit for a high place which should be filled by a man of learning, worth nnd talent, and which he has sought and obtain ed by such indirect and crooked means. I still oppose him. I opposo him because, ho is incompetent. I oppose him berauso he has dragged into the contest a religious tost, and sought to shelter his incompetence under the protecting shadow of an ancient and sacred church, w hose hallowed purity he would soil with the contaminating touch nf partisan politics. For my own pari no one will dare accuse me of bigotry or "superstitions opposition to the Catholic Church. Within two years past, one who is dear to me with my consent and approval, under a sensi? of conscientious duty, adopted that faith, arid has become ri rigid member of that Church It would he the same to me if il were Methodism, Pres byterinnism, or any otk)er sect. I would op. pose its intrusion into politics. The Judicial question riser, far-, Tar above, party politics, nnd while I will give my adhesion to my party nominations upon all other Subjects', I will openly oppose incom petent aspirants for Judgships nnd hold that man lo be prima facia, unworthy wlio sepks to force himself upon tho Bench by the powetof party discipline. The Bench should be sacred and above all mean influence. Men should be placed there, who by pure lives, solid attainments, and clear minds, could command Ihe place, not seek it. .lames Campbell is unfit.
