The Press.] Washington, Oct. 20,1858. .Poor .fere*, from Hiearagpa, is in the most un comfortable condition of unoe'rtalnty. He has not plainly been told that he is dismissed, although he has had* strong hint thrown at him in that .way from our Foreign Office. * For months past, insti gated no doubt by cupidity of the meanest type, he has allowed himself, like a shuttlecock,' to be batted between squads of American and English and French'speculators. ’Trlssori one day, like Jeres, was a demi-god, bpt the next a King’s fool, and now the journals of _ the oountry have no epithets toohiting for their edification. And snoh, .forsooth»are Jhemensent nity-lo near the Government of the United States the interests of the Central American States! 'lt may be that (fore Ousely has been helping our Government materially in the adjustment of the Central American dispute. The record before the country shows, however, a contrary fact. We must, I presume, await foe publication of the. President’s message to Congress for a cine to the intimate'relationship between Bir TVtlliam and Mr. BuQhanan’s Cabinet. Cal! to mind that during this year they were as inseparable here and at Bedford, and on 1 excursions elsewhere, as prinoe Albert and her-Majesty Victoria. Was it only as Coant Grammost was'once invited by a foreign potentate to shed the lustre of high birth and elegant, unmistakable aristooraoy upon tbeoortege. Who knows ? / It is ready refreshing to witness the dismay caused by General Casa’s letters amongst the Ni caragua speculators. They begin to see that at' last .the United States is to stand by tbe Monroe doctrine, and hold the influence she deserves by her position upon fois continent, and In the family of nations. It Is seriously and terribly tbe fact that foe Administration is determined to adhere to Its obnoxiouß Kansas test, notwithstanding the signal reverses that have befallen its polioy in Ohio, In diana, and Pennsylvania. It is stated that Mr. Buchanan is‘making arrangements to Teproaob the people for not obeying his bidding at foe polls, by giving burial an foreign offices to those who were destroyed by the Leoompfon plague. Bat the Southern politicians are getting,enough of this. They say, and say truly, that the oondnot of the Administration must inevitably lead to the annihilation of the Demooratto party. Certain it is, that no Barer steps oould have been taken to that end than have been taken already. The news from New York gives no oonsolation to foe despair of the Leeomptonites. It is stated foat the result there in November will be a com-, plete rout of foe Administration forces. What would tbe North, and especially Pennsyl vania, say if the. efforts of Southern politicians were to sucoeed/and the next Treasury report were to come oat dot-footed for free trade and direct taxation ? The South could not, and would not, pay its share of foe Governmental expenditures, and the onlyinferenoe is that this is one of the secessionists 1 manoeuvres for disunion. Mr. Buohanan cannot tolerate this free-trade doo trine, for It is well known (if It hab not been stated before) that when he was Secretary of State, in Polk’ s Administration, he wrote a letter, for pub lication in foe Uniotii whloh advocated specific, duties and a high rate of imposts upon importa tions. This letter Gov. Walker saw in type, and objected tp, as interfering with bis fnnotions as Seoretaryof the Treasury. Its suppression was made a sins qua non of Mr. Walker’s stay in the Cabinet, and it was accordingly suppressed by Mr. Buohanan. Itis stated that between $BOO,OOO and $900,000 will be reqniredfor the volunteers ongaged in ser vice against the Florida Indians, until the removal of Billy Bowlegs and his band. No appropriation for this purpose has yet been made by Congress. Occasional. Musical Fund Hall.— The concert given by Miss Adelaide Phillips, last night, was well at tended. There,was an excellent programme, con taining loss-Italian muelo than usual, at which agreeable variation we are persuaded the pnbtio were' pleased—the taste of Italian singing, like that for olives, being acquired. Mr. Sqnireß, the new tenor, deserves his reputation, and wo shall be glad to hear him in English opera. Miss Phillips is a charming singer, to whom we coaid listen from dusk to midnight, and per formed admirably. Sailing of the Canada* Bcstox, Oct.

Bteam was raised in eight minutes, and a stream of water, from an inch and a half aperture was thrown above the flag-staff, 120 feet high. A great crowd was present, comprising many of the firemen of thie city, Brooklyn, WUHamabargh, Jersey City, and Hoboken. In the evening an elegant 11 gorge*’ was given to Hope Hose at the Apollo Rooms, toasts given, speeches made, and a hilarious time enjoyed generally. " Judge Parker, the Democratic candidate for Gover nor, and Senator Jefferson Davis, of Mississippi, ad* diessed a large meeting last evening at Palaoe Garden!. The remarks of Judge P. were marked by discretion and ability, avoiding all UUberality and denunciation of those who differ on non-essentials. The resolutions, also, were marked by prudence and moderation. The Republicans and Americans of the Congressional distriot now reprosentod by Hr. Biokles have been endeavoring for some weeks past to agree upon a can didate in opposition to that gentleman, and have so fir progressed that the joint fusing committee have agreed to present to their respective Conventions the name of Mr. A. J. Williamson, one of.the publishers of the Sumfay Dispatch. The Republican Convention on re ceiving tb*s report, last evening, oonflrmed the action of their representatives. Should the Americans con cur, as they probably will, Mr. Williamson will be the regular Opposition candidate. There will then bp three candidates fairly in the field, provided General Walbridge persists injunhlng. It remains to be seen whether the power that accompanies a regular Demo* oratlo nomination, backed by the influence of Tam* many Halt, and vigorously sustained by the eonce/ed strategetlo skill of Mr. fi., can so far keep compactly together the patty, and preserve their loyalty, as to carry their votes for him into the ballot-box.

The Launch or the Lancaster,—An lm- mease crowd assembled yesterday morning in our Navy Yard to witness the launch of the naval eloop-of-war Lancaster. There was a great deal of interest mani fested, more than is usually shown on snch eoessions. Many gentlemen .from Lancaster were present among whom were Mayor Burrowes and other local notabili ties. The vas el, as she sat on the stocks, exhibited all the marks of tbe superior workmanship for which oar . city baa been celebrated, and was exceedingly 'sym metrical in form Though technically rated as a sloop, she has. enormous capacities, registering 2,256 tons Hsr length over all is 278 feet 1 Inch, her spar’deck being 253 feet, and her beam 49 feet She will carry 18 nine-fnch gnus and two .eleven-inch. Her engines, from one of our Philadelphia shops, will be of the Unset make, and; all together, it la estimated that the vessel, when full-rigged,-and,ready fop sea, will cost Undo Sam ever fTOOjQOO. 1 , The arraogements fop the launch as made by the officers of the yard were well carried out. The yard was thrown open to strangers at 11 o’clock, and a crowd of abont 2.009 which'had been collecting during tbe mOraing, Socked arorpa the docks. ’ From 11 to 1! one unbroken stream of humanity poured into the yard, including a great number’of ladies. A large number of invited guests, with permits from the officer of the yard, were admitted on board. The rash, how ever, to obtain eligible positions on board, or inside the bul'ding, was fearful, and at one time it was feared that tholong gangway leading up the side of the vessel woujd glvo way under the immense weight of human' beings oolteoted on it. Indeed, at one time som« ma licious persons on board cried out that the gangway was breaking, and quite a panic ensued, some seizlog ropes, some entwining themselves arqqnd convenient posts, and others rushing for terra firms. Daring this time a large crowd bad assembled on tbe wharves, and on hoard the Congress,.whleh was moored alongside of thb Lancaster. O'hers bad procured row-boats, and tho river was studded with a large number of these small croft. A number of naval officers were present in full uniform, among whom was the venerable Oojnmo* dore Btpworti who attracted considerable attention. At a quarter to twelve a gun was firei, warning ves sels on the river to keep at a diitsnoe, and, at a signal from one of the offioers, the workmen, commenced re moving the shores and spurs. At this time the exolte raefft became intense, some hurrying here and there in search of good positions, others climbing up the sides of the building, and the Crowd on the landings sending UP cheer after cheer. At about twelve the signal was given, the lost link that bound the noble vessel to terra Jfrato was severed, and away she went amid the thunder of oannon from the surrounding vessels and the huzza* from those on board and on shore, realizing la the full Longfellow’s beautiful description; Then the master, \ . With a gesture of oommand} Waved bis hand ; And at the word, Loqd and sadden there was heard, All aronnd them and below, The sound of hammers, blow on blow, Knocking away tbe shores and spurs. And see ! she stirs! She starts—Bhe moves—sbo seems to feel The thrill of life along her keel, And, spurning with her fcot the ground, With one exalting, jovous bound, She leaps into the Ocean’s arms. Jnst os the bow touohed the,water Miss Harriet Lane, who was standing on the vessel, surrounded by a large number of ladles and gentjemen and officers of the oavy, broke a bottle, filled with Oonestoga water, on the bow, naming her the Lancaster. Once fairly In the water, she moved gracefully around, floating a few hundred feet up the river, when she was brought to by meaneof auaqebor. Oat In the stream she presented a beautiful appearauoe. After the launch a number of invited guests partook of a collation, whioh was spread in the commodore’s quarters.
