Resuscitation of Whigery. A largo and enthusiastic meeting of old line whig wa held in New York, on Thursday, tl.e 17th nit., for th purpose of taking into consideration tho propiietv of re organizing the old Whig party." A streng feeling in favor of such a movement h.i3 been manifesting itself for some time p.i3t in different localities; and now that the lall is in motion, we may expect to see a third party contending for the ascendancy ir 1C63 .This movement is unexpected in New York U supposed to be- forth purpose of establishing a head and. front for similar movements which an being made In the different States. It is the expecta tion of the prominent Whigs, that if they can ueeeed in effecting a national organizMhn, they wih be able to carry a sufficient nmher of States in 1863 to throw the eVctton of President and Vice President into the ILmse, wher they, having the balance of porr, could forc the election of a man who would favor their wishea. The Sk fee which will most probably enter into this arrangement with a hope of succes?, are Kentucky, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Vermont and Rhode Island, with the probability of a few other States that are becoming thoroughly diseatisSed with Republicanism. That this movement will be tho means of resurrecting anything like a considerable portion of the old Whig par. y, we very much doubt. Whigs who ttolc modern Republicanism to their bosoma have beceme- thoroughly abolitionized, and would be out of place in a genuine Whig party. The Republicans view this movement wlih evident displeasure. They say but little about it, wishing to keep the matter as quiat as possible. The meeting above reforrcd to was Addressed by ev.Gov. Washington Hunt, of New York Many prominent men of the State were present, and all urged an immediate organizition of the National Whiaparty. The New York Herald, (Whig) in closing an articla on thi3 subject, says: "Nothing but the intervention of this new .bird party indi.-a'cd can prevent the lc:ion of a Northern anti-slavery President in I8G ); and to avoid this di-ect test of Recession, disunion and revolution, we are anxiou to see this third party advance into the field. Th git a ro wIJo open. and thousands of good mn and true, of all parties, stand ready to join in a national party movement for the succession, which vll sink the nigger agitation, and niggers in every shapo and form, in . the great practical, financial and commercial issues cf the dar." XSTThe South Band Register has been enlarged o thirty-two columns. In everything except its political principles, the Register merits success. ———<>——— PIKE'S PEAK.—The news from the mines is very conflicting. The Lawrence Report says that a letter from Mr. Moray of the original Lawrence Company, now located near El Paso, states that plenty of shot gold is discovered on the banks of the Arkansas. The country is being extensively prospected. The yield is five to ten cents to the pan. He thinks the prospect better than ever existed in California. Mr. Devor, writing from Kennekuck [sic], Kansas, March 10th, says: I have see men from there who say there is money to bo made by zeal and industry. Yet we passed a man yesterday that told us that it was all a humbug, and claimed to to directly from the diggings. The following from the St. Louis News conveys an idea of the extent of the emigration to Pike's Peak: The St. Joseph papers inform us that the rush to Pike's Peak by the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad, through that city, continues to increase daily. On Friday last, 300 passengers, all for the gold region arrived there on a single train, and on the day following 400 others arrived. When we consider that the rush has only commenced, and will not reach its height until the middle of April, we may form some approximate estimate of the huge tide of population surging westward to spread itself over the nascent State of Colona. The Hannibal and St. Joseph Road is only one of the channels through which the living stream rushes. More than a thousand persons a day pass through this city, by the Missouri River steamers and the Pacific Railroad; numbers of others cross the Mississippi at various ferries, in wagons, and, avoiding the cities, steer by the most direct roads for the western border of the State; while nearly all who start for [sic] the southern States go up the Arkansas River through Fort Smith. It is fair to estimate the number of Pike's Peakers going westward through the several avenues of travel, at 2,000 per diem. They come from every state in the Union, but chiefly from the West—from Illinois, Indiana, Ohio Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa and Kentucky, nearly every county, town and hamlet in some of which states sends out a company of ten, twenty or thirty.— Six months from this day the unorganized region of Colona (the name proposed for the new Territory) will contain a population of 80,000 souls. It will probably come into the Union as a State at the next Congress. Young gentlemen afflicted with the

Pike's Peak fever, will be interested in the following statement from a reliable gentle - man in the new Eldorado, of the manner of gathering gold at the diggings. A man takes a frame work of heavy timber, built like a stone-boat, the bottom of which is composed of heavy iron rasps.. This is hoisted up to the top of the Peak, and the

5Snü? .? Änd aihiei doWü tKe VJa.ff!romthc?lH .The compensation is to

the mountain. As he goes down the side of the mountain swiftly, the rasps on the bottom of the frame-work, scrape off the gold in immense shavings which curl up on to the machine, and by the time the man gets down to the bottom, nearly a ton of gold is following him. This is the common manner of gathering it. ———<>——— ——>From Mr. E. S. ELLIOTT, who received a letter from our Pike's Peak Boys, we learn that they left Wyandott, Kansas, on the 28th ult., by the way of Santa Fee [sic] Road, for the gold region. They were all in good health and fine spirits, under the command of Capt. W. C. SHIRLEY. ———————— Steamboat Exccrsioji and SundatSchool Cxlxbratiox. From the Fort Wayne Sentinel we learn that Arrangement are making for a Errand May Day Sunday School Excursion from Toledo on the 5tli of May Passengers will be taken over the Michigan Southern and Wabash Valley Ro du at greatly rcdueed rates. The train will leave Fort Wayne at 6 o'clock A. M. Fare to Toledo and back only a dollar. From Toledo the passengers will take an excursion of three hours on the lake on the splendid propellers of the New York fc Erie line, and return to Ft. Wayne by 10 o'clock P.M. Fare ou the propellers 40 cents, meals 25 cts. James II Carpester, Esqr., has been promoted to the Editorship of the Northern Indianian, vice Geo. R Thralls. We extend to Mr. C. our best wishes for his success. i 1 1 LATER FROTI EUROPE. ARRIVAL OF BREMEN STEAMER. New Yoiist. April 2.

Ia the House of Commons, on Monday night, Lord John Russell moved his amendment to the Rfoim bill, that it is neither just nor politic to interfere with the freehold franchise, Ac, the purport of which has already been received. After some ( debate the matter was postponed till Tues day. A large meeting of working men had been held in Hyde Park to oppose the Reform bill. The Neapolitan exiles had arrived at Bristol. The quays were crowded with people to receive them, and considerable enthusiasm was manifested. FRANCS. TKe PM nrraponJnt Eiu' pero having been informed of the ultimate resolution of Austria, desires to recede, by diplomatic help, from his aggressive attitude. Another letter Rays that Austria and France appear more inclined towards a pacific solution. It is certain, however, that Austria's force in Lombardy is more imposing than was generally thought. The Vienna correspondence says that the danger of war is falling off for the present. Paris telegrams say that the Powers have agreed to an European Congress, but the basis of the discussions cannot be settled; the Times says it is to be held in London or Berlin. .AUSTRIA. The Post warns the public agaiust too much confidence in the peaceful reports, and says that it is very doubtful whether a Congress will be convoked. V The export of arms, gunpowder and sul phur, from Austria to Italy, is prohibited. XTALT. The Morning Herald says that France intends to protest against the construction of fortifications at Placenza. Cardinal Ronlonelli has again requested the immediate evacuation of Rome by the French troops. INDIA. The Bombay mail of Feb. 2 waa tele graphed. The Bohriholas had been cap tured without a blow. AUSTRALIA. A week's later news had been received. The mines were prosperous. From Washington. Washington, April 5. The Quartermaster' department is cur tailing its expenses as rapidly as the public 6ci vice will permit. In addition to the two military posts on the route to Utah, three are to be dispensed with. In Texas, orders have been issued to stop the purchase of mules, &c. Advices from Africa aay the American 6quadron is still repealing its monotonous drudgery up and down the coast, for a dis tance of 5,000 miles. I he health of the squadron was tolerably good. The Dale left bierre lyone on the Sih or February for Monrovia, and from thence she would go northward to Bathurst.Goree, Cape de Verdes, and f irther.as tnepuoiic survice may require. The recent order to immediately fit the new steamers is not with special reference to events in Nicaragua, but the design is to relieve vessels on the Pacific and other squadrons. Washington, April I. The Union to-day has an apparently semi official article on the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, savin? the President has never changed Ms policy concerning it; that the American construction oi u win uo uustantially carried into effect; that the Mosquito protectorate and the Bay islands will do doubt be surrendered by Great Britain to Nicaragua and Honduras, respectively, that the substance of Sir Wm.

The recent utrago on the vessels of the Atlantic and Pacific Steamship company was to-day brought to thu attention of the government officially, who were repoited to have said the property of American citizens shall. and will be protected. The prospects are now that additional vessels will be dispatched to Nicaragua. Philadelphia, April 4.

The Gazette office at Selma. Ark., was burned. The (ire was supposed to be the work of an incendiary. The Kiowa Indians had driven the men from the mail station at Pawne Fork, and were otherwise troublesome. The people of Upper New Mexico were desirous of annexation to Jefferson Teiritory. A dispateh from Leavenworth says that information has been received from Washington that the government designs placing several companies of cavalry along the route to Denver City for the protection ot emigrants.

The Sentinel of this morning says: "On Saturday evening we received intelli gence from the Detroit and Milwaukee rail way, that the steamer City of Cle.vveland had arrived at Grand Haven, having come thro the Straits of Mackinaw the night previous. Th? Citj of Cleaveland experienced no difficulty in coming up, and as the straits are entirely free from ice, we may expect one or two additional arrivals from the east to-day." The propeller Forest Queen left this port for Buffalo yesterday, with a full load of beef and flour, being the first for the lower lakes this season. Three or four grain laden vessels sail for Buffalo and Ostrego to-day. New York, April 4. The Times Washirgton correspondent says: There are probabilities that a contract will be made within a few days with a New York company for carrying mails from New York to San Francisco via Nicaragua. This company contemplates uning the Collit.s steamers and will force the transit, leaving the consequences to be taken care of by our ships of war at each terminus. Mr. Buchanan is opposed to the project and suggests delay, but Mr. Cass urges immediate nc'.ion, and the Postmaster General favors the proposition. .Rochester, N Y., Ap il 4.

Correspondence N. Y. Herald. Asfinwall, March 22. Since the sailing of the Illinois wo have important and exciting news from Nicaragua. The British steamship Cijde, from San Juan on the morning of the 29th, arrived here yesierdaj afternoon. The famous Colonel Schlessinger, who has ben for some time the political agent of Joe White's company, was a passenger, aud goes home is the Northern Light, loaded down wiih protests and despatches. American interests are annihilated, defunct, dead aud buried in Nicaragua, and Joe White's aorapauy, agents, aptainand steamers ruu tdf seized, imprisoned and completely blown up. The bridges have been burned and the employes have nothing to do but to get away as quickly aud safely as possible. Il appears that the Nicaraguan govern ruant Nag beett locking out for hllibusieis on the PajibY side for some time, and had spies stationed on the coast to report the arrival of any suspicious vessel. The 2Jth of February was the time fixed for the arrival of the invaders, and on the niht of the 19th three of ths largest bridges on the Transit road, from tho lake to San Juan del Sur, were burned down. These bridges, from fifteen to twenty in number, had all been lately built and repaired, and one of them is said to have cos i Ol, ovo. On the afiernoon of the Snd of March the United Slates sloop f rar Decatur appeared otf San Juan del Sur, aud sent her boats on shore for water. The si epless spies vfen on the alert; and taking the De catur for a filibuster craft, and the water boats to be tilled with armed invaders, the greasers fled to '.he bushes, thence to the President and reported the country already invaved and tilled with armed men. Mar tinea's bosom swelled with patriotism, and was almost wild with the hope f encoun tering the enemy. Martial law was de clared. The war trumpet sounded, forces were called out, and the President, having placed the chair of State in other keeping, put himself al the head of the army. All the pomp and parade of glorious war was going in a style to be seen and appieciaied only in Nicaragua, when news came that there were no filibusters at San Juan del Sur; that the ship was an American man-of-war. On the 11th of March an order or command, siQOid by an official at Fort San Carlos, dated the 10th, was served on Captain Holton, of the lake boat Cass Yrsarri, then lying at the head of Toro Rapids, to place the steamer immediately under the guna of Fori San Carlos, twentyseven miles distant. An hour was given Holton to reply; and if at its expiration he refused to comply with the order, himself and men were to be regarded as 'suspicious to the peace of ihe republic' The order was served on Holton by an officer of the Nicaraguan army, accompanied by armed soldiers. Upon his protesting against such proceedings, and refusing to obey the order, the officer and soldiers took forcible possession of the Cass Yrsarri, and carried her to Fort 8an Carlos. Holton attempted, and asked permission to leave the boat, but was forcibly detained until the 15th. when, at the interposition of Mr. Bills and Mr. Schlessinger. the agents of the company, he was set at liberty. On the 12th a similar order was served on Captain Carman, of the Catharine Maria, lying at Castille Rapids, from the commander of Fort Castillo. He declined complying, and tlie Catharine Maria was ! fetzed by Nicaraguan officials. Carman hauled down th American flag in token of i ant then sent to the fort, got the Nicaraguan flag, and hoisted it on the Catharine Maria. In view of all this Nicaragua has tkrown op5n the Transit free to the world. Read the following: The Senate and Chamber of the republic of Nicaragua decreeArt. 1.

Our government wait9 further reliable intelligence. If it shall appear that Ouseley has transcended or violated his instructions, a formal request will be made of England to disavow ins acts, if she shall not do so voluntarily. It is thought, however, that she will carry out in good faith the understanding between the governments of Great Britan and the United States; nor is it improbable, should Nicaragua ratify all the British tieaties and reject ours, that Minister Lamar will be withdrawn, and Gen. Jerez, the Nicaraguan Minister at washington, bo tendered his passports. Our vessels will, it is said, be concentrated at the most exposed points; for the protection of the persons and property of Amerian citizens within their reach. To proceed to the interior of the country would be an act f war winch will not be" committed, but there is in doubt, from what has recently transpired, that the President will exert to the utmost extent all the power conferred on him by the constitution and laws. The Navy Department has named the new third class ateamers as follows: That at Portsmouth, N. IL, the Mohican; at Boston, the Farragansett; at Brooklyn, the Iroquois; at Philadelphia, the large one Wyoming and the 6mall one tho Pawnee; at Norfolk, the Dacotah; at Pensacola, the Seminoh; at Mare Island, California, the Saginaw. From official advices received to-day, it appears that tho steam frigate Minnesota reached Bombay on tho ldh January, having on board ex-Minister Reed, who left on the 25th for Suez. In a few days she was to leave for Mascat, in Arabia, and, passing from thence to the Cape of Good iiopc, h would probably tcuch at Zanzibar.

The annual election of directors for this road took place on Wednesd ly last. Tho members of the old board were re elected with one exception, the name of T.

The re-clcction is an evidence that the stockholders are well pleased with the energetic and prudent manner in which the affairs of the road have beea managed. The reports of the stockholders shows that the total cost of the road and equipment ia fourteen millions six hundred and thirty -one thousand dollars. Earnings from all sources during 1858, one and a half m'llioni. The necessity for completing the road from Valparaiso into the tity of Chicago, during the last year, was such that the company assigned to J. E. Thompson certain assets with which to build the eighty-two miles. With the liberal assistance afforded by the Peannylvania Railroad company, in the purchase of iron rails, chain and spikes, &c, And the ose of his private credit, the chief engineer has accomplished this object within the means arsigned to him, leaving when the work is completed and paid for, it is anticipated, & sufficient surplus to procure the requisite rolling utock to meet the increased traffic that will be thrown upon the road during the ensuing autumn and winter. The cash expenditure upon the road, up to January 1st 1859 mounted to $6lR,051,52. The net profits of the road during the past year notwithstanding the large amount of dormant captt1 invested in the extension of the line, and the contracted business of the whole country, have fallen gn0rt 0f the amount required Io meet the interest obligations of the company but $83,938, 26. If the traffic of the line should only increase in proportion to its increased length, the receipts of the present year would be $1,900,000. If we assume sixty per ecnt as the cost of operating the line, there will remain a net profit to meet interest upon the funded and unfunded debt of the company, of $ 750,000, which will be more than saftlcient for that object.
