OUR ENGLISH RELATIONS. Vrrw Ite A. r. rirmfc A fr possesses the public mind. It is that the Biitinh nation, in reveuga for the rejeo tlon ot the Alabama treaty, has determined to inflict npon as a sooarge namely, to Bend ever to ua ita uselesa Btoakofotr?se, actora, dramatists, aud noanagura. la other word, to torment ns like "Caliban," and compel ua to carry wood. The fear, although we do Hot share It, la not altogether nngrouuddd. With out, for the Immediate moment, duelling npon the present peculiar state cf our jilaces of auAisement, we may mention that in the latest European intelligence there are two items franght with dire purport. The Cut states that "another ship-load" of artists baa departed for America. The word "artists" is distinctly used. ' The second frets as with more evil. It states that Mr. Nelson Lee a pantomimic writer will visit Nw York next seaeon, provided the indaoe jnent is sufficient. There is a sublety in this threat which seems to have political signill canoe. The eli'ete Uritiuh Government,. trem bling in its shoes in the Tower of London, undoubtedly kuew that we had Farnle already here, and with the recollection of the inquisi tion he'd ol yore within the walls of that bated British BaBtile, determined to ra.sk ns with an other torment. Clearly there is forethought And cruelty in this. It is adled, moreover, Vy the alarmists, that four British, burlesque writer are now absolutely in the laud, and yeady to perform their nefarious offices at the Shortest no.ioe. If this be true, there is indeed cause for popular alarm. Rejecting, however, the political aspect of the case, and simply taking it as it stands, we may safely Bay that the situation comes from the pusillanimity,- meanness, and indo lence of our own managers. To these defects nay be added a mole-like nature on their part which never sees, but only hear?, the approach of something or somebody. In the eity of New York we have, as a rule, a singularly imitative, if not ignorant, set of managers. There are, of course, exceptions, well known to the pnblio and thoroughly recognized by the press. The majority, how over, are of the class we have described. The average manager sublets his theatre, and that direful institution called an "agent" is at once spawned npon the town. Uf oil it was necessary to deal only with a proprietor - or manager. Now it is absolutely essential for an artiBt to dance after the gorgeous agent, who is usually as beautiful and oblig ing as a hotel olerk. 13 this contrivance New York is placed on the lowest level of pro vincialism. These theatres have no compa nies. Why should they t An agent will cer tainly make his appearance, and provide a Sufficient entertainment for the evening. There i no scenery, because the agent has imported s mass of second-hand scenery from the other aide,-and there are no costumes for the same reason. The proprietor of the theatre simply stands by smirking if it succeed. If it falls, he fails too for he Las nothing mana gerially to fall back upon. While this is going on our native artists are scattered, our home Manufacture of art material is destroyed, our dramatists are left at the mercy of Farnie, and the taste of the public is utterly perverted. And per verted by what? By the thing - called bur leique, and by the buffoonery called panto mime. A year or so since the hook was baited with the glow-worm called spectacle, and it landed a great many mistaken fish. And these are what England gives as to re place the healthful drama of oldl Any one of the English agents might say of the Ameri can pnblio as '"frincnlo" said of the strange fish: "Were I in England now as once I was, and had bat this fish painted, not a holiday fool there bat would give a pieoe of silver; mere wouia this monster make a man." Un fortunately, the tables are turned against us. We remain perhaps the monster, bat we give the piece of silver and a very large piece too. THE CONGRESSIONAL RECESS. JVi the X. Y, UcraUl. At half-past one o'clock Friday morning the extra session of the Senate, called by the President to assist him in the distribution of the spoils, was brought to a final adjournment. No special act of Congress having been passed providing for a summer or fall session to keep watch and ward over "the man at the other . end of the avenue," as in the palmy days of Andy Johnson, there will be a Congressional recess till the first Monday In December next, unless the President, in the interval, shall deem it expedient to call the Senate together for exeoutive purposes or the two houses for legislative business. In short, the President , is left for seven months to get on'in the coq duot of the domestio and foreign affairs of the Government, -with or without the further assistance of Congress, as he may elect. It is given out that, having rattled off all the important domestic and foreign offices, having seoured all the legislation necessary for Southern reconstruction, having provided snug places in the reooguition of equal politi cal rights to white men, and women too; and red men and black men, war men aud psace men, including the Quakers, and being in no particular hurry to settle the Cuba auestion or the Alabama claims, General Grant will take -things quietly during the absenoe of Congress, and, above all things, will maintain Si8 polrrtof P08 wilU iorg nations. ,V be no trml)le England, we are told, and irom what has been said abou'. San ford, nominated for Spain but not confirmed we are left to infer that Mr. Fish has taken a leaf from the foreign polioy of Mr. Seward and would rather pay a good round sum for theiBland of Cuba than get it for nothing. We must, however, beexnused in the liberty t?E , t0. en"ral 0rant tbat deolsi ..0Br lor!igD flairB 18 LlB tra P7. and not "tmtatiD in..ti. . . r . nite enough of that under the two Johnsons! llIiT.re80.lutl",1 Cuba and the great -j uBuuvuy.-- we nave had , pecUU .

On the contra we bold that to carry out anv decialva at.;;. contemplated by the administration, requiring the cooperation of Congress, it will be better to call an extra session of the two houses to meet these propositions at an early day than to wait till next Deoember; or if General Grant, like General Jackson, on the main question, were to "assume the responsibility" of a decisive ultimatum in advanoe of a call npon Congress, he would be in no danger of a donbtlnl support from CongreBS or the people. CANADA'S NEW ACQUISITION. Wivm tht N. Y. Tribune. TW Hudson's Bay Company, the last of the treat English commercial associations, baa inalJy relinquished the claims it stubbornly maintained for mora than 200 years, Barren 4rd iti trade monopolies, ad oeded it! ter- vltorUl rlghta to Canada for the consideration f 300,000 and one-twentieth of the land that shall hereafter prove cultivable. At first view the advantage of. the bargain appears wholly on the aide of Canada, for the tract of which that Dominion booomes possessed is enormous, including at least 200 millions of aores of fertile soil, beside vast metalliferous regions; bat we find on examination that the position of the company was such as to vir tually foroe it to a tale of some sort, and that the inevitable future expense for colonization and settlement which the purchase entails npon the new possessor will be so vast that no larger immediate outlay could be safely ricked. The privilege of colonization was open to the proprietors themselves, but nnder restrictions tbat would have impaired rather than added to the value of their possessions, and the reasonable remonstrances of the British provinces gainst the continued monopolies of commerce and exclusive territorial claims had become too pressing to be longer resisted by the Home Government. The company has no cause to complain. It receives in ready cash a sum equal to one-fourth of the highest estimate of its entire property, for giving np a tract to which it was by no means certain that it had a legal right; it retains the fur trade, hitherto the only source of its prosperity; it is relieved of all expenses of government, and it holds a future claim npon the twentieth part of lauds wh'ich'would never have become salable nnder its administration, but which will now, in the course of time, rise to great value. Whether Canada has done as well as it might is another question. There is strong reason to believe tbat if the charter of the company had been subjected to strict legp.l investigation, it would have been found defective to an extent war ranting the oconpation of the desired tract, without any compensation at all; and even if it had proved valid, no other customer was at hand, aud the sale, as we have said, had be come a positive neceesity. We are not informed as to the preoite amount of territory whioh Canada secures. The limits of the company's possessions have never been very accurately fixed. Aooording to the original grant of 1070 Rupert's Land included the entire region the rivers of which Ho wed into Hudson'B Bay or Hudson's Straits, but the incursions of the French, up to the time of the cession of Canada to England, showed how powerless the owners were to sustain so vast a claim. Rival trading companies, too, began to dispute their supremacy in the early part of the present century, and sanguinary conllicts were frequent nntil a general con solidation was accomplished in 18J21. At that period a new lease was granted for a term of years, giving the company control of the en tire American territory north of the United States -and Canada, excepting tbat held by Ens6ia. This lease expired in 1859, and was not renewed, and the proprietors were thrown back npon the conditions of their first charter. Their greedy interpretation of this instrument was disputed by Canada, and for the past ten years the respective rights of both parties have been a subject of controversy. It is now settled npon terms wnich, although not cor responding to the inordinate pretensions of the company, may b considered extremely advantageous on all bides. PRACTICAL PATCHING. From the X. Y. HWM. It is to be hoped that the present mauia for reconstructing States on a purely political basis will not pass away till the State of Rhode Island has bttn remodelled. Iu that State no less than eight thousand white citi zens are disfranchised for lack of a email pro perty qualification. Their enfranchisement ould make the bta'e Democratic by two thousand majority. While there is talk of partitioning Texas so that the western part of the State, which is supposed to be Republican in politics, can be represented in congress, and of remodelling Delaware by adding to that State eight counties from Mary land and two counties from Virginia, snrely something should be done to bring Rhode Island up to the proper State standard in population and territorial boundaries. A glance at the map will show how easily this could be done by running a line due north from the present western boundary line of the State, so as to cut off all of Massachusetts east of Worcester and add it to Rhode Island. For the new State so constituted a new constitution would be needed, wnicn should be Bubmitte l to a Democratic com mittee for decisioni and, if need be, for revi sion. It would be required that the new constitution should make no distinction in voters on aocount of property, and the acceptance of the constitution, together with the representation of the newly recon structed fcitate in Congress, snonia te xaaae conditional npon the rejection of the pro posed fifteenth amendment. With the strong Democratic vote which would come in with the enfranchisement of the now debarred citizens of Rhode Island, he part added from Massachusetts, including Boston, would soon be Democratic, for the business interests and intelligence of the State are in that sec tion, and where schools are plenty Democrats? best flourishes. Saob, a State, so constituted in the very heart of Now England, would fairly radiate intelligence to the ext'remest limits of that now benighted section, aud would stand as a bulwark against the lanauoism, ia?ucisui, and disnni'onism of tbat region. We owe this reconstruction net less to down-trodden Tihoda Inland than o the re or the couutry, so long and so ruinously ruled by the ismatics of the East. Let this work of gennintrecon Struotion proceed without delay. The. prece dent of carving StatPS for political purposes is fully established, Aaioruie minisieru, cam net and foreign which, come from what now constitutes Massachusetts, let Massachusetts generously give them to the country.

New Yohk, April 10, 1809. llF-HKINO, FAKREL A SlIEHMAN, No. 251 Droailway. Gents: On the night of the 22U ultimo, our store, No. 20 South street, was entered, and a desperate at tempt made by burglars upon one ol your safes In our counting-room. The key to the oafe In which we kept our securities was locked Insltlo of our tire-proof took safe, the doors of which were literally cut to pieces; froth this they obtained the key to the other safe ami opened it. Fortunately we had one of your Burglar-Proof Banker's C1h-hI limide, In which our valuables were deposited. This they went to work at with a will, aud evidently used np all their time and tools In vain attempts to force it.' The night was dark and stormy, and tho fact of their knowing where our key was kept shows that their plans were well matured. Tltey tried wedging tho door and body of the Chest, and the faithful safe bears evidence of the labor aud skill devoted to the work. All was useless, and it Is with great satisfaction wo report that upon opening It wa found our securities all af, and can therefore cheer fully Indorse the Burglar-Proof work recommended by you. You will plnase send tho new safe purchased by na to our counting-house, and tako the old one, to show that somcures are still manufactured woithy or the name.
