THE NEW YORK HERA =, Vel, Vil.—Ho, 327.-—Whele He. 1995 Albany. [Correspondence of the Hera! | Aceasy, February 7, 1842. It has rained egain to-day, should it continue, a further rise, and probably more disastrous freshet must be the result. The river has fallen greatly, and at this writing, is almost completely off the docks and streets In the Assembly to-day, Mr. D. R. F. Jones pre- sented a petition from the Trustees of the College of Physicians of the city of New York, for le; tive aid. Algo, one from the Pilots Board, praying for an alteration in the Pilots law, which was on motion referred to the delegation from New York, Kings, Queens, and Richmond counties. Mr. O’Sutuivay presented a petition from Ste- phen Potter of New York, for the repeal of the charter of the Bank of Ithaca, for an alleged viola- tion ef its charter. Mr. Townsenp presented a petition from E. K. Collins and others, ship owners of the city of New York, for an alteration in the Pilot laws, which was referred to the same committee as the one from the Pilots Board. The liquidation report was received to-day from the State officers, on a motion to print. Mr. Horrman said he had seen the report, and it was a total failure, either because the officers were unable or unwilling to testify. He wished if it was, as defective as he thought, it would be referred to the Committee on Ways and Means, and after they had reported—the reports of the Committee and State officers might be printed together. A resolution was offered to-day, calling upon the President and Congress to pay cer the inilitia. Mr. O’Suttivan according to previous notice, in- troduced two bills to authorize voluntary self-taxa- tion of cities and villages to aid in works of internal improvement, and to authorize voluntary associa- tions for the construction of rail and macadamized roads. The passage of these bills will save a vast deal of legislative time, which is now consumed in the discussion of bills for these objects. The New York members have been very active today. Mr. D. R.F. Jones offered a resolution to amend the Constitution, so that the legislative year should here- after commence on the of Decem| and that the legislature should convene on the first Tuesday in December. That gentleman made his maiden speech to-day on the New York Registry repeal bill. le said that as he was nota member of the house when this bill passed, as most of his colleagues, and as he might not have an opportunity to be feard on this subject, he would seize the present occasion. The speech which was but a repetition of all that has been so often caid on this subject, added no- thing toMr. Jones’ character as an orator. He will never equal Cicero, or Demosthenes either; that he may dependon. It was mainly, an attack on his whig colleague, for being the only one in the dele- gation opposed to the repeal. He advised Mr. Bald- rae leave the House, when the vote was to be en. . Mr Ststmons replied, and ailuding to the opposi- tien in New York, said he believed "that it was a hobby, which certain young men straddled, ot only to ride over their opponents, but over the older and more conservative part of their own party. Mr. S. said that when he voted: for this bill, he had hoped it would prove acceptable not only to the people of that city, but the whole state. But he found it to be otherwise, and he should new vote for the repeal. He had not, however, changed his views on the sub- ject, and he hoped that one would soon be adopted by the whole state—that the penple would demand it. . McMuraay replied in defence of the younger portion of the New York delegation—goed hu- moredly—and highly eulogized what he styled the honest, may, and independent eourse of Mr. S. He did not believe that that gentleman was ever let into the secrete, that operated to procure the pas- Gee of this odious law. _ ‘he hour of twelve having arrived, the house pro- ceeded to ballot for State officers. ‘The result was that Samuet Youre had 80 votes for Secretary of State, ard Guiian C. Verrcance, 25; for Como troller, Azanian C. Fraga 80, Jonn A. Cortier 26; for Treasurer, Tomas Farnixaton 80, and Jacos Hatowr 26; for Attorney General, Gronce P Bar- xex 79,and Wirtts Haw. 26; for Surveyor Gen- eral, Narnanser Jonrs78, and Oavitre L Hot- Ley 26; for Commissary General, Henry Storms 78, and Apoxtrax Cuaspuer 21. Both houses hav- ing nominated, they went into joint meeting, and on comparing they were found to agree in their nominations, and the Lieut. Governor declared the result in accordance. Thusthe work is consumma- ted, and the destinies of the State hands, and it is to be hoped, better e Senate having retired, Mr. McMurray, re- sumed his remarks on the Registry Law, and went into a detail showing the comparative expense of elections under and before the Registry Law. Mr. Grout also replied to the imputation of Mr. Simmons in regard to young men. ir. G. read an extract from the celebrated letter of Noah Cook, icked up in the street,I believe, and which he read jast winter. Panl eould not allow the occasion to pases without inflicting a speech upon the House. ‘his question has certainly been argued and debated g0 often, that there cannot be a echool boy in the country who does not understa The House fared to be of the same opinion, and were pos to take the question on the bill without de- ate. Mr. Batpwrs replied, denying the imputation of impurity! of motives’ to those who originated the lun, and compared the ex, s of the Registry Law to the preservation a tt pour of the elec- tive franchise, asa mere drop in the bucket. Mr. Jonnsox, of Chatauque, said, in relatio the fact of a portion ef the New York delegation be- ing in favor of this repeal, that one cogent reason which influenced them in this course, was the fact that numbers of whig voters had lost their votes from their business preventing them from attending to the registration. Mr. J. said that it was well known, that the election in the city of New York for some years past, has been a mere farce. He himself had conversed with western merchants from Illinois, who had told him that they voted three times at one election in that city. It was to prevent this he contended, that induced the passage of the Registry Law. Mr. J. went on to repel the imputa- tions of unfair motives cast on his party, in a very good humored and jeking manner. The debate was continued by Messrs. SwackuameRn and Sumons. Mr. Davezac, then rose, but the house manifested eat repugnance at a further protraction of the de- ate, and a motion was made to adjourn, but lost. Mr. Davezac continued in a very animated strain, and defended the naturalized citizens,egainst whom, it wassaid this bill was especially directed. _ Mr, Sacra replied; after which the question upon the bill was taken, and it was passed, and sent to the Senate for concurrence. The House then con- curred in a resolution of the Senate, appointing a joint committee to examine the accounts of the late easurer, and adjourned. Ia the Senate, Mr. Varian, presented the annual report of the Sailor’s Snug Harbor. The President presented the annual report ef the Albany and New York Rail Road Company. Mr. Diextxson called fer the consideration of Mr. Rager’s resolution providing for an adjournment of the aah agente Be the 3ist of March Mr. Ey said this resolution could not be acted on until Congress had passed the paperioamess Bill. If an adjournment took place before that law was passed, an extra session would be necessary. For this reason, be should now vote aguinst the con- sideration of the resolution, The Senate refused to consider, ayes o, nays 14. leave of absence. Some have gone away dis- appointed and chagrined, while others are as happy and as smiling as a ‘*May morn,” These latter are the friends of the successful candidates ; and, as “ the laborer is worthy of his hire,” they no doubt indulge in pleasing anticipations of “crumbs” from the public crib, and of fat pickings at the pub- lic goose. In the Assembly, to-day, numerous petitions were received in relation to the subjects of the abolition of capital punishment, alteration in the State Pri- son system, amd to punish licentiousness. The la- dies of the State would seem to be moving en masse in this matter. Petitions, signed by at least twenty thousand of them, are now on the files of the house, all praying that the fathers of the State will punish the crimes of seduction and adultery by fine and imprisonment. One would suppoge that the shield thrown around every virtuous woman, by her in- nate modesty, should be sufficient to pretect them from the snares advances of the seducer. But they appear to think otherwise, and are seeking to be deany fortified, by haviag the scone 6 of the Jaw thrown aroundthem. But I fear they will be disappointed, as no notice has as yet been taken by the Legislature of their petitions. The report of the Brooklyn Saviogs Bank was this day received. The bill to authorise the Lock- port and Niagara Falls Railroad Co., to increase its capital stock, wasread a third time and passed. The House, after a long debate. pa: the bill in relation to arbitrements. The debate was on the principles involved in the question of arbitrement their esraine ree contusion—and the alleged increase of litigation produced by the system. r. Srtmoxs was the principal opponent of the mea- sure. ‘Phe House then proceeded to nominate Canal Commissioners, when Joxas Eanut, jr., received 77 votes, and Asa Wutrsey 23; James Hooxer 75, and J.Newros Dexter 25; Gronor W. Lirrir 74, and Davin Hupson 24. A motion was thea made that the remaining three be nominated toge- ther, and the vote was _as follows :—Damiex P. Bre- sect, Bess. Exos, and Srernen Cuan, each receiv: ed 76 votes, and Geo. H. Boucnroy. Samuet B Rucares, Henry Hamitton each 25. The Se- nate then entered the House, and, on comparing no- minations, they were found to agree, and the joint meeting being dissolved, the Senate withdrew. Mr. Swacxnamenr then called for the considera- tion of his resolution proposing to deduct from the pay of members of the legislature the time that hey are absent, except in case of sickness or death. An amendment was offered, to the eflect that all af- ter the words Resolved, be stricken out, and substi- tute that the roll shall be called every morning, and every member who is not in his seat, prepared to answer to his name, shall be fined sixpence, the said fines to be consolidated into a fund for the payment of extra printing. (Laughter.) Mr. S. remarked that gentlemen need notattempt to laugh this mat- ter off their shoulders. Mr. S. went into detail to show the great loss to the State produced by gen- tlemen absenting themselves. This resnre pro- fessed to be a reform one, and he wi ask them to commerce the work by reforming themselves.— He conti: ued at length in the same strain. Mr. M’- Moragay replied, in opposition to the resolution, remarking ‘hat he thought it for the advantage of the House and the public interests, if gentlemen— especially the sei ones—would occasionally ab- sent themselves. Mr. Horrmas moved the refe- rence of the resolution to the Committee on Privi- leges and Elections. After some further debate, the whole matter waslaid onthe table. The hono- rable gentlemen, however strenuous they may be in favor of retrenchment and reform, do not like the application of the principle to themselves. Their prinviple would seem to be, “do as we tell you to do, not as we do.” The bill to amend the charter of the city of Rochester, as amended by the Senate, was |. The House then adjourned. ~_ In the Senate but liitle business wae done, indeed both houses adjourned at anearly hour. Several bills, private andflocal, but not of general interest, were acted on, when the Senate went into Com- mittee of the Whole on the Registry Itepeal Bill. — Considerable debate then ensued, but the hour of twelve arriving, the Senate proceeded to nominate candidates for the office of Canal Commissioners: After this had been got through with, and the Se- nate having returned from the ‘Assembly chamber, the consideration of the Registry Law was resu- med. The committee rose without taking the ques- tion, and reported progress, and then adjourned. The whige, it will be seen, supported all the pre- sent incumbents as candidates for the State officers. This was due to those gentlemen, as an act of cour- tesy and compliment. Of those who have just de- parted, none will be regretted more thae Mr. Jony A. Coutter, the late Comptroller, who, by his ur- bane, and courteous demeanor, and strict attention to the duties of his office, won the esteem and re- spect, of even his most bitter political opponents. This has been a most singul ther the weather, has been such. Ith riable as Pa minute snowing, c ful—and then again cloudy and rainy. The steam- boats Utica and Emerald arrived here this morning.

Opening of the Spring Trade—Advertising. The Spring trade for the year 1842 is beginning to open about these days, ia this commercial metropo- lie, on a new and important footing. The auspices are highly favorable—the prospects . ae the eventstaking, place around us,and from the remarkable facts developed relative to the annnal productions of this remurkable country, it is very evident, that in every epecies of wealth and industry, thig noble country is richer, healthier, happier, than the most sanguine imagined. The applications for getting rid of their debts, under the new Bankrupt Law, seem to be utterly insignificant in point of numbers, influence, or character. Not two hundred persons, in all our large cities, have yet applied, and those are juat such persone as never add any thing to natural wealth or naturol industry. It istrue the debts of some of the States appear large and very heavy, amounting to about $200,000,000—but wuen it is known that the surplus wealth of this couatry, for one year, with economy and prudence, is capable of paying up one half of the debt, who should be frightened, or talk of repudiation abcut the interest? With an annual produce, in agriculture, fisheries, mines, forests, and manufactures, equal to 1600 mil- lions of dollare, it would seem to be very easy to re- organize anew the etate and general government finances—to manage the currency—and to complete all really useful public works, be they railroads or canals. _Why then should not trade revive, and public and private credit be invigorated, by pur- suing a right and honest course of policy? There is no obstruction, but what we find in the clamor of a few paltry speculators out of Congress and State Legislatures—and the folly and squabbling of many foolish legislators in both such public bodies. Under this general aspect of affairs, there is every prospect that the trade of 1842 will revive—that pub- lic and private credit will come up again—that the eountry will go on to prosper, by pursuing right prin- ciples. ‘ The first thing to be done, is, for Congress at once to stop their sqaabbles, and te settle the currency and other questions. The next thing is, for all the suspended banks that can resume, to resume at once —and to compel the rotten banks 1o wind up—dis- miss their incompetent or dishonest officers—and make them farmers, to gain a livelihood. Toomany have crowded the commercial and financial ranks of life,and too few have turned their attention to agricul- ture and honorable labor, which will always return an equivalent, equal to human comfort and suste- nance. In this city, the prospect of real business has not been better since 1836. It is true Wall street is dowa,and many of the speculators there are in agony —but Wall street is not NewYork—nor isNew York the State—nor is the State the whole Union. There is a vast quantity of healty business doing here, very quietly, on the right principles—cush or short credits ; and if Philadelphia, Baltimore, Mobile, New Orleans and all the other large cities, would close up their retten banks, and compel their good banks to resume specie payments, all would be as merry as a church bell ina spring morning. Take an instance—Buffalo, in this State, is without a bank—all are gone—yet we are imformed that the prospects for 1842 in Buf- falo, for a good sound business, were never better. In Pittsbuggh, they-haye on the stocks for this year, about 20 new steamers. This is a sample of all the great inland commercial towns. ‘With these general views, based on unquestiona- ble facts, we are positive that the trade for 1¢42, will be better than that for any year since 1835, provided the commercial and financial classes, make the start on right principles—such as cash and short eredits—a paper currency invariably payable on de- mand in specie—and the resuscitation of public credit, by the imposition of taxes, by Congrie: and the States, to pay their expenses honestly—and to meet the interest on their public debte. Let us not be any longer the sport of rascally politicians—President manufac- turere, dishonest financiers, or bankrupt speculators. It is time, therefore, for our commercial men to begin moving—and the first movement to be made, is to advertise liberally and largely in those news- papersthat advocate sound doctrines in trade, and have e general circulation over the whole country among the best and soundest businessmen. Among the first of this class is the New Yeux Heratp, which has a circulation of nearly thirty thousand, throughout the Union, among the cash and short credit men of business. A word to the wise is enough. Let ustake the first step aright, and a'l will end right.

Dear Bexnett:— It has been my intention to write to you for some time past, but have waited until 1 could procure a budget sufficient to filla few pages. Daring the Rev. Peter Bawl-loud’s stay with us,much has transpired, and of which I shall give you a faithful description. Mr. Bawl-loud preached three times a day, and collected at each time a vast concourse, made vp of all the congregations in the city. All passed of well enough, till the prayer-meeting, (which was after the sermon, ) when a few of the faithful remained to be prayed for. He urges them in the most earnest maaner to come forward to what he calls the anxious bench, and be prayed for—his manner is very earnest—quite beseeching. The poor deluded ones go, #8 they say, to be prayed for; they are scarcely there before the Rev. Peter Bawl-loud is as close as the bonnet wil! allow; and, if the person is pretty, he remains forsome time,if not,he pays but a short Tn this manner he visits all the females for charity’s sake, leaving the males to some one else. All the lights are put out in the gallery, and the remainder so dimmed, that,from above you can scarcely dis- tinguish any one below. The holy man, upon one or two occasions,carried a few into the lecture-room, inthe rear of the church, and with his own hands fastened down all the curtains—what was done no one could tell ; but, no doubt, several souls were saved. Some of the ladies were heard to say, that the pulling down of the curtains was not in accerd- ance with their feelings with scripture. No male wasallowed to enter—nor was the devil. Most of the converts belonged to other churches, and have since become strangers to their own church, and wanderers about tewn. Strange to say, not one of the holy man’s converts have become members of their own church, or desired to be of othercharches. They amuse themselves by going to night meetings, and in this manner keep up the excitement through which they have so lately Vee A secret meet- ing is held at certain private houses during the week, Nv SAU N SAFE. i da bill relative to attach- ‘Sates are made of rought Bar and Mr. Dixon introduced a bill relative to attach uf od togeth che st absconding, conceal?d resi- | for the purpose of prayer.

Roumfort’s Report—Freshet, §c. 2 The Bank Bill which has beea slowly progressing in the House passed second reading to-day, having been go amended as to make it anything but what is desired, and to render its passage extremely doubt- ful. It will come up on fiaal reading to-morrow, and when sent to the Senate will be again rema- delled, perhaps its character entirely changed. The “Great Unchained,” father of that illegitimate child yelept Anti-Masonary, is endeavoring to make him- self as troublesome to the dominant party as p ble. It was expected that the Anti-Masonic influ- ence would be brought to bear in favor of a resump- tion, but it was not supposed that they would have the hardihood and daring efliontery, to proclaim that they supported such a measure, because it would prove a curse to the people. Such, how- ever, has been the case. The Resumption Resolutions, which elicited so much debate in the Senate, have at last been agreed to, but the committee on banks will not make re- port, till after the present bill passes the House,when that bill will be reported with such amendmenis as they may think expedient to make. As you are fond of literary curiosities I herewith send you a report made to our legislature, by the gallant and daring Col. Roumfort, of Philadelphia county, on the subject of adry dock in that city.— This is one of the jiterary prodigies of the day — When it was read to the legislature they were per- fectly electrified, it was so argumentative, so con- vincing, so lucid and so plain, that many of the members really imagined that the Colonel had it in his power to speak the dock into existence. Such a struggling of ideas for utterance—such a flickering of lights--such a masterly production ! The weather still continues changeable, wet, and spring-like.

Bankrupt Law in Buffalo—Effect of the News from Washington—Fashions— Trade. Faiexp Bexyetr:— My letter of the 26th ultimo published in your paper which arrived this morning has created a greatexcitement among the dry good dealers,though they do not preieud to deny the facts therein con- tained, but contend “the trath should not be spo” kenat all times.” If the press would boldly and independently speak the truth at all times would it not be better for the commanity ? The news of the defeat of the repeal movement has caused a general rejoicing among our citizens. A great crowd met at the American on the even- ing of the arrival of the Herald of Monday last, and declaring they could afford shilling drinks, rejoiced themselves into excitement; some went home and some went to bed, and some slept on the fioor. It really makes one disgusted with his species, to see such a display of the swinish propensities in his fellow men. In politics we have a little more excitement than when I wrote youlast. Our charter election takes placefthe first Monday in next month. Mr. Clinton, sonef the immortal Dewiit Clinton, was brought for- ward by his friends, (leading men from both par- ties) and nominated for Mayor; with the under- standing that their should be no opposition to him But the certainty of electing a locofoco Mayor fair- ly made that paity crazy; they began crowing, and laughing at the whigs as a “used up community.” This did’at suit the whig fri a of Mr. Clinton, and that gentleman came out with a card decliaing ination. The loco’s were floored ; and are ubmixisiv i Thi done for, and they may a» well turn in, as the st year withthe fractious whigs, aud elect the biggest fool they can find. The news from Washington disgust all part here, and there is but one feeling express: that itis all gammon the Southerners expressing so much horror at the dissolution of the Union, when they have held it over the heads of the Northerners asa flaming sword for the last fifteen years, to awe them into their measures. The dread that the peo- ple of this section have formerly looked upon a dissolution of the Union has completely vanished, and the common talk t the South go to the de. vil, we can get along without ther, and if they don’t behave themselves as neighbors we will drive them into the Everglades of Florida.” As bad as this may sound to your old eastern patriots, it is nevertheless the common talk here. We have most unseasonable weather here; it is like April. There is but little ice in the lake, net enough to i npede navigation, and were their pas- sengers enough to support them, steamboats would now be running between bere and Detroit. Oar fashienables are getting awake, aud we are now having parties every evening in aweek. Wha is little amusing is, that those who make and have been making the greatest display in this respect, are subjects for the bankrupt law.
