"W YORK HERALD. « York, Priday, September 9, 18432. a ~ x “Phe Ashburton Dinner—More Apologtes. The “ Journal of Commerce” comes out with ar artic entaining more apologies and explanation of the conduet of the committee on the Ashburton Dinner, which in some respects sets the matter in new point of view; but whieh, as an apology, 18 on of the most remarkable and extraordinary we ever saw, and as such we give it withstanding th: atow Diwnea.—Ne Which the toast to the Presi ‘rank in silence, while 1 with three che st that the expla ° must have been a varton dianer e United on of E aume 63 was and was resp Dus papers which id ation in the person of a list of the names of at the dinner, that all trae Ameri: rk them.” We have before ex- upon evidence which is to us «so far from the occurrente hav- committee of arrangements, % it than themselves, and to t more unexpected.

We showed the reasons of the rejection of all the Students educated | t that establishment, who applied for admission in- to the naval medical service, and disclosed the utter destitution of this School, with respect to the means of affording a respectable medical education. We now proceed to examine the Crosby street School. ‘This establishment had fallen into rather a lethar- gic state previous to the advent of the Stuyvesant phenomena. But in this instance the old adage, “opposition is the soul of business,” was verified. Stimulated to active and vigorous exertion, the old College of Physicians and Surgeons started from its supineness, and by the energy and liberality of its conduct, very soon eclipsed its young and blustering rival. A clinique was opened and conducted with great eclat, and instead of the disgraceful spectacle of fellow-professors abusing and blackguarding each other, as was the case at the Stuyvesant, the pro- fessors at the old school manifested the most friend- ly feeling, not only to each other, but to the whole body of the profession in the city.

Ittakes some time to get up steam on such ven, it had the worst chance. ve think enough has been said about this little affai by ourselves and others. If, however, any mori , it may as well be directed sons and presses which maintain that the harged was justifiable, and not against the com- an! others who y condemned that conrse. According to this, part of the committee, throngh this journal, admit that their conduct was grossly wrong, but endeavor to mend the matter by saying that twas accidental. Well, take this view of the case, upon their own showing, and what does it amount te? It shows that these men are utterly rrant of the munners of gentlemen ; it shows t they are utterly ignorant of customs of i | society ; it shows that they are utterly ig- | every thing necessary to be done on such | an occasion as the late dinner. They are acciden- tal tlemen—possessed of accidental manners, idental principles. men who call themselves rehant prinees’’—-who arrogate to themselves ssion of all the respectability, good breed- are the Yet these Fay ing, knowledge, practice, habits, and manners of gentlemen, that can be found in the city ; and upon the strength of this impudent assumption, claim to be the exclusive leaders of ‘* good society.” At the same time they acted with a brutality, an ignorance, ind presumption, that never was parallelled ; giving isthe sole reason for their disgraceful conduct, tat it was purely “ accidental.” This apology is the very worst that has yet been given; and at the same time it does not cover the ground—the great point in issue. This is merely an explaoation—and a sorry one—of their conduct in nection with the toast. But what have the committee to say of the song? What apology or explanation do they intend to put forth on this | out? What does Stephen Whitney say to that ong t What opinion has Cornelius W. Lawrence of the sentiments in that song ? How long would James Lee like to see Great Britain act as “ Queen ?” Does William B. Astor endorse the rus of that song? Would George Griswold de- of the Sea to see the assertions in that song put into full force on the high seas? How could Benjamin L. Swan sit patiently and sing the sentiments in that song? Did not Robert B. Minturn’s better judg- ment tell him that the introduction of tha¢ song at that dinner wasa great national insult?’ Probably James G. King, from his habits and associations, might have felt perfectly satisfied with the song ; but how could James Depeyster Ogden, President of the Chamber of Commerce, assist im singing a song that was an insult to the whole country, and to this commercial community in particular? sion, andthe toast tothe President being the first | | new schoolat the cliniques of the old college? There, | day after day, might have been seen scores of the geons in the navy of their country. This fact is, as may readily be supposed, very mortifying to the Stuyvesant Faculty. Mott and Pattison attempt to throw the blame on poor Phenomenon Bedford, who was, it seems, inthe habit last winter of telling the students not to be afraid of the “ green-room”— he would guarantee that they would all get diplo- mas. Ah! how criminal the conduct of the men who could thus deceive these unfortunate young men, and subject them to the sad mortification of being rejected by the naval board! What must have been the feelings of those misguided young men on finding tha extent and consequences of the imposition and deception of which they had been made the victims! What must have been the feel- ings of their parents, guardians, and friends! The Crosby Street School, we rejoice to say, acted far otherwise. A few of their students who had not attended with dil- gence to their studies, were refused diplo- mas and ordered to prosecute their education with attention for another season. This was real kindness, and manifested a widely different spirit from that which extracted the last dollar from the poor student, and sent him unfit and unprepared to the Naval Board, then to find in the most painful manner that he had been deceived ! The Crosby Street School possesses the chief con- trol of the Hospitals, Dispensaries and public cha- rities of the city. Hence their students have oppor- tunities of becoming acquainted with the nature of disease and its proper treatment. We have shown that the Stuyvesant gentlemen are sadly defective in this most important matter—that, ia fact, they can- not give any clinical instruction. What stronger proof of this could be found, than that presented last winter by the attendance of the students of the poor starved students of the Stuyvesant, seeking knowledge in the great practical school of the col- lege. The sentiments expressed by one of the most intelligent of the Stuyvesent students last winter, spoke volumes—-‘“‘ What good does it do us to see Mott exhibit his knives and ligatures: and will Bedford’s stewed oys- ters and cider champaigne enable us to cure inter- mittent fever ?” The Professors at the College of Physicians and Surgeons are men of character and respectability. Dr. Becx’s name is most honorably identified with the medical literature of his country ; Dr. Stevens enjoys a high and merited reputation as a surgeon, and is altogether far superior to Dr. Mott. Dr. Swerr, a lecturer at this School, is one of {the most ac- that song intended,as it appears to have been, for acommentary on the treaty?

Ilas it at last come to this, that we sit submissively at the foot stool of Great Britain, toss up our caps,” and proclaim with glee that hereafter she shall be what she has always arrogantly claimed to be, “(Queen of the Ocean,” the “High Police of the Sea? Sea ocean? If the song means any thing such is its meaning. If the toast is said to be an accidental affair, such was not the case with the song. It was deliberate- y prepared bya reverend clergyman,the pious father in God, the holy Mr. Muhlenburgh—it was imbued with the principles of those mea. It was sung with loud eclat by these “‘ Merchant Princess” in the pre- sence of the high and sp | representative of that so. called ** Queen of the Ocean,” preceded by a prayer from the Rev. Dr. Potts, who was present through the whole of it, and invoked the blessings of Hea- ven on this interpretation of the treaty. This is no little affair, as the Journal calls it. It is a most important matter. From the egg to the apple, “ab ove usque mala,” it was nothing bata se- ries of gross insults offered to the American people and their government in order to toady to the repre- sentative of the British Government then at that tavie ‘The fact is, that the whole thing was got up by a set of impudent and ignorant financiers, who have speculations on foot, and hopes and ends of their wn to accomplish and obtain, which they thought ild be best effected by thus depreciating their own country and extolling the government ef this titled aud money-lending lord. It was a mere ving operation, in which they alone were red. A miserable trick—a juggle in which ttempted to sacrifice the proud name and the ndependence of the people of this country for the paltry and mercenary of purposes. Ve again call upon the committee for further ex- planations—and the American people and the Ame- rican press for further commentary. Come, thun- der and lighning, come tinancier ‘Tuner t he got up and proposed the Taat Toast denies King cheers to Queen ora.” We never heard it asserted that he did, before his denial, but knowing the chap, we are now inclined to believe he did. True or false —it is of no moment. He says he only “felt loath- ing when the President of the United States was proposed.” That's enough Nominations For Governor anp Lieutenant Governon.—The respective conventions have no- minated Mr. Bouck for Governor, and Mr. D. S. complished physicians in the country ; his lectures, as reported in the Lancei, do him great credit. Drs. Parker and Gilmenare men of talent, and are much revered by their students. Then the College is one of the oldest and most respectable in the land. A great number of our Army and Navy surgeons, and many of our oldest and most distinguished physicians were educated within its walls. But enough has been said to place the merits of the two schools in a proper light. Ifany of the stu- dents who are coming from the country allow them- selves to be imposed upon, they can now have no excuse. If they desire to be rejected at the naval board, and prefer the diploma of Drs. Bedford, Pat- tison and Sands, they are at liberty, of course, to do so; and instead of borrowing, to purchase better experience. New Bricnton Gatertes.—The fall fashionable season begins to-night at New Brighton, with one of the most brilliant of balls, at the Pavillion, in- cluding a recherche supper, to which scores of the fashionable strangers now in town are going. New Brightonisa peculiar place. After the crowds of fashion have left Saratoga, Newport, Rockaway, Catskill, West Point, Sharon, and Niagara, a gene- ral concentration takes place in September and part of October, at New Brighton, to close the season— wind up the summer's gaieties—and have one grand re-union before winter. There are about one hun- dred persons of both sexes at New Brighton, many of them in possession of youth, beauty, fortune and accomplishments. A great many are also going down from town—and at every ball there will be a crewd of visitors from the city that will create a furor of joy. In the bright month of September—or the glorious month of October, there is ne place in the wide re- public, like New Brighton. The fine air—the de- licious drives—the splendid hotel—the capital dinners—the lovely balls, and the “proximity to the city, all tend to give it a facility of materials that no other place possesses. The first fall ball be- gins to-night; but we learn that preparations are making for a series of splendid tablaux vivans— an elegant pic nic in the woods—and such pieces of gaiety which so distinguished New Brighton during the season of 1837, when Henry Lynch, Esq. was master of the revels, and opened the road to heaven. The old days of New Brighton are at hand—and the next month will be a fearful time among the gay. ‘The town is so full that hundreds on hundreds can be spared—and the steamers are regularin their trips to the Island of the gay and chivalric. So, be up and away. Porrry anp Potrrics.—A small song book has been published, containing about a score of songs heading up Harry Clay and heading off Captain Tyler. General Harrison was sung into the White House—but we doubt whether the like can be done again.

T., for the purpose of employing an agent to be stationed at the city of New York, to attend to forwarding emigrants out to that section Senator Mangum of North Carolina will neither obey instructions from the Legislature of his State, nor resign. Jaconin CLuns—Jaconin Docrrines.—The wateh- men are organizing secret political clubs. They would do better to attend to their public duties. The whigs are organizing Clay clubs, and the locofocos all sorts of clubs. This is a Jacobin age—that’s flat Crry Parcets Detivery.—A project of this kind has just been started, but we doubt whether it can sueceed, or be carried into effect. Musica, Proscrietion.—Does Signor de Begnis intend to get up an Italian opera without Mrs. Sut- ton as prima donna? If he does, he’ll find himself mistaken in his hopes. City Intelligence, Jupee Lynxcu anv THe Haweas.—The Bunn’ well known are all wags, particularly Reub, but more particularly Bill, of the Register’s office. Bill has been recently afflicted with a distressing felon or whitlow on one of his fingers that has nearly dis- abled him from the use of manual exercise and flourish of the goose quill, and while laboring under the effects of the pain was rushing through the Park yesterday, with a pertect looseness, when some in- quisitive friend stopped him short, with “How do you Bill? where are you going in such a devil of a hurry?” “ Going, why I’ve got a cursed felon on my finger, and I’m going to hunt up Judge Lynch to obtain a writ of habeas corpus and have it discharged forth- with. Bill bolted—his friend snorted, and when the Re- corderand Alderman Carman were told the joke this morning in the Court of Sessions, we really thought an explosion would take place, attended with se- rious effects, This is the best of the season. Tax Man with tHE Carrer Bac.—On the 23d of August, Mr. John Heritage, of 97 Chapel street, employed a man named William Bruce, to convey @ carpet bag to his lodgings containing clothing valu- ed at $20.75, and while on the way he scooped into a house, when Bruce sloped with bag and all. No- thing was seen or heard of the rogue until yester- day, when Mr. Heritage met him in the street neat- ly dressed up with the coat, pants, and shirt that were in the bag at the time he stole it. He was ful- ly committed. Hovse Breakinc.—Ne less than seven dwellings were broken open last evening in various parts of the city, by burglars, and considerable prvperty, sto- len. When do the Common Council intend to change the police system? or do the present party in power intend to wait until next spring, when they in all probability, will be relieved from the trouble ? Deaters in Stocks.—On the 24th of August, Mr. John Eckel, who keeps a fancy store at the corner of Mott and Bayard streets, missed sixteen satin stocks, eleven vest patterns, and twenty unfinished stocks, but could not trace the thief. Officers Fokkes and Drinker yesterday arrested a man named Robert Kriele, a German, who confessed the theft, and was committed. Quire 4 Rumpvs.—On Wednesday evening a par- ty of street brawlers assembled in front of the house Kept by Mrs. Clark, at 22 Read street, and deman- ded admittance, which was refused. Officers Sweet and Colvin, who were inside the house wait- ing to arrest a thief, were requested by the keeper of the house to go into the street and urge the men to disperse. While there a Mr. Mulligan, who resides next door, came into the street and threatened to call the watch, when one of the officers informed him that they were a part of the police. Some words followed, when Sweet and Mulligan came to- gether, and while clinched, they both fell, and Mul- ligan’s leg was broken. Complaint was entered against the officers for an assault, but it is presumed ee ey will be able to show they were first as- saulted. BY MAIL. Baltimore, [Correspondence of the Herald.] Barrimore, Sept. 8, 1842. Disturbance at a Colored Camp Meeting. Mr. Eprror :— There is a report currently circulating in the city, that a very serious disturbance took place yesterday at a colored Camp meeting, now being held on the lands of Mr. Jamison, about seven miles north of Baltimore. ‘The fracas was occasioned, itis said, by the intemperance of some young men (white) with the blacks whilst engaged at their camp duties. It appears that the depredations were such as caused the ire of the darkies to rise up, and that they set to werk and gave their assailants a terrible beating, driving them en- tirely from the encampment, and so mutilating one of the party that he died soon after. Rumor goes, that his throat was cut with a common case knife. If this affair is as bad as reported, fears are enter. tained that something serious may grow out of it. 1 would modestly suggest the idea of inviting the co- lored worshippers of this country to hold their reli- gious meetings in churches which have been built for the purpose. They will fare better, and domore good. I may be able to give further particulars to- morrow. 4 " The body of Captain George Robinson, who was drowned a few days ago in the basin, was recovered yesterday. ‘ ‘The Rev. Brother Maffitt commences his course of lectures to-night, at aquarter admittance. He is making havoc among the sinners. Some hundreds have been converted. He is truly mighty in the cause of righteousness. f ‘The tendency of flour is still to decline. A sale was made yesterday at $4,44: the wagon price is reduced to ‘$4,25 ; wheat anaes at various prices from 45 to 100 cents, as perkind and quality ; whis- key sells slowly at $0 cents for hhds. and 21; a 22 cents for bbls. ake i The fair at the Law Buildings goes on gloriously. ‘The Museum is pretty well attended. Front Street Theatre opens on Saturday next. A clear morning and fine one. Yours, Roperick. Philadelph: [Correspondence of the Herald.] Puriapeirnia, Sept. 8, 1842. There is still much difficuliy and uneasiness among our weavers. Arthur McCarrall, the man who was attacked by a party of weavers on Tues- day morning, in Adams street, in the city, and forced to quit work, yesterday took out warrants for some of the party. Constables Hayman and Morri- son, of Spring Garden, proceeded to execute the warrants, when they were chased by a large party, the former very narrowly escaping without a broken head and limbs. During the afternoon a warrant was taken out by the party against McCarral, charg- ing him with stealing a bible from the colored church in St. Mary’s street, at the time it was de- Anorwer Wat Srreer Trick.—J. B. Pollard and Jesse Evans, two of the evil geniuses that have presided over some of the small business of Wall street, have been arrested and held to bail in the. sum of $1500 for defrauding Mr. Thomas Pitts, of this city, in August 1841, of a promissory note for 500, drawn by John S. Bruen, and dated April Ist, 1841, payable in two years from date. They pro- posed to negotiate the note by paying Mr. Pitts $1000 in bills of the broken Citizens’ Ban of Maine, which they represented would be soon current, and that they had paid fifty centson the dollar for them. In addition, they promised to lend him $250 in cur- rent money for some of his immediate wants, which was not complied with | He received the bills and transferred the note, which they negotiated, and as he could neither recover any value for the bills of the bank, nor the note in return, finally concluded to make them suffer the ogentd of the law, if there is law sufficient to punish such fraudulent transac- tions. Mock Auction NEAR THE Fuiton Marxet—Ler Country Psorie Beware.—The old Chatha street system of Rane and robbing people is not yet, it would appear, exploded—notwithstanding the ‘strenuous and almost incessant efforts of the public press to that end. A day or two since, a very respectable gentleman connected with the clerical profession in Brooklyn, was induced to enter the store of one William Henig M’Kenney, of 29 Fulton street, who hangs from his door a very en- ticing red flag, and dubs himself an auctioneer. The old system of offering bargains was resorted to, and our worthy clergyman soon became the dupe of the auctioneer and his agents—on the “ watches and rings” principle. It is not necessary to enter into details as to how the purchaser was victimised; and for all present it may suffice to state that a man Rnd AREOaS one of M’Kenny’s salesmen and factotums, together with a fellow named Totien (who offered himself in the double ere. of witness and surety for Degroot) were held to bail, by order of Justice Matsell, to answer the reverend gentleman’s accusation before the General Sessions. The fancy store of Mrs. Vanderpoel in Broadway, near the Stuyvesant Institute, was entered by false keys, yesterday morning, and almost every thing moveable carried off, to the amount of several hun- dred dollars. Where was the watch ? Fortirications.—Among others, the following sums have been appropriated for this harbor:— Fort Schuyler, New York harbor . . Castle William, New York harbor South Battery; ‘New York harbor. .... Fort Columbus, New York harbor. .... For permanent wharves for Fort Columbus, Castle William, and South Battery, Governor’s Island 8,000 Fort Hamilton, New York harbor ..... + 6,000 Fort Lafayette, New York harbor..... . + 12,006 Tur Mormons.—No doubt Joe Smith and the Mormons are sad sinners—yet we must say that we don’t believe one half of John Cook Bennett’s stories, and those we do believe gives us no great opinion of his morals or talents. We must tell the truth and shame the devil. Mune News.—* Thirteen days later from Rio de Janeiro” was published in the “* Express” of yester- day. Look in the “Herald” more than a week ago, and the same news will be found. Cuatuam TuEatre.—This house, last night, was full, as usual, to witness the pertormances of J. R. Scott and Jim Crow Rice. To-night the new and beautiful drama of Morley Ernstein wilibe perform- ed, together with two of Rice’s amusing pieces. Our Trape wira Nort Wesrern Mextco.—A elgg from Santa Fe informs us that the expe- dition from Independence, Mo., consisted of thirty wagons and one hundred men, which would have been increased to sixty wagons and more than one hundred and fifty men, but for the sinking of the steamboat Lebanon. ‘two of the traders left our city yesterday on their way to New York city, to receive the insurance money upon the goods sent by that boat, and others are expected daily at Indepen- dence, Mo., with a considerable quantity of the “* Mexican castings.” In May next the large cara- van will arrive, with more than one million and a half of silver dollars, with which to purchase goods. These traders do not interfere in the quarrels be- tween Mexico and Texas, and are not molested by either party—they have pursued the business of sup- plying Santa Fe, and the whole North Western por- tion of Mexico, with goods, for the past four years, with considerable profit. PAssENGERS BY TUF CLEoPATRA.—As the Cleopa- tra was approaching Providence on Sunday, the Stonington ferry boat was seen coming in. Her passengers were hurried on board the railroad train, which set off immediately for Boston. Had the train waited but three minutes they could have ta- ken the Cleopatra’s passengers, who were obliged to 0 to Boston in stage coaches, and did not arrive there until 4 o’clock P.M. Capt. Dustan, we un- derstand,immediately handed them back the money they would have had to pay for railroad fare, and invited them to breakfast on board the Cleopatra.— The handsome behavior of Capt. Dunstan is worthy of all commendation. Tue Conaressiona, Districts or THe Srate.— On the electoral vote of 1842 the whigs carried the following districts:—Nos. 2, 3, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17,18, 19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, and 34—in a 20 districts. The jocos the balance, 14 districts. On the Cor vote in the same year, the whigs carried all the above, except the 18th and 30th dis- i 18 in all—the locos 16. On the Governor's it the whigs carried districts 3, 8, 12, 13, 14, 16, 19, 22, 24, 25, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34-17 in all—the locos 17. ‘On the Congress ticket the same year, the whigs, in addition to the above, carried the l0th-district. Jow Smrru.—A late number of the Quincy He- rald represents that Governor Carlin had been fairly whipped out in his attempts to arrest Smith and Rockwell; and adds that the Mormons will not give them up, but fight to the last. trie yote in Court of Common Pleas. Before J Ingraham. . ‘e im ‘Marton the action for (alluded to yesterday) favor of plaintiff for Serr, trespass, ; the jury gave a ver- diet in } seit stroyed by fire, who was taken before Alderman McCleane, and committed to prison in default of bail. : The effect of the hard times, andthe disorders among our operatives, is forcibly told in the volun- tary application yesterday made the Mayer Cannon, by a weaver of the name of Fansten, to be com- mitted to prison. He stated that five months ago he made a similar application. which at the time was granted; that he remained in prison the term of thirty days—that since then he had been endeavor- ing to make a living—that he recently got work at his trade, and that on Friday a part of his fellow workmen visited his place, tore his work from the loom, and violently abused him. He said that he had no means to gain a livelihood, could not bear to beg, would not steal, and was anxious under the circumstances to find a refuge in prison. His face presented marks of violence at the time of his appli- cation. Last evening about ten o’clock, John Hoover, re- siding in Wood street above Sohu Ikill Second, while in the act of going up stairs, fell down and disjointed his neck, from which injury he died a short time afterwar ¥ Yesterday morning, Bernard Murphy, belonging to a canal boat, wasdrowned in the Schuylkill, near the falls. He was drawn into the water by the towing line, and immediately disappeared. His body was, however, recovered. ae The Penn Township Bank of this city, has re- sumed on its demand notes—few or none of which, by the way, are in circulation, having probably been bought in by the agents of the bank at a heavy dis- ceunt. Its deposites and its “‘ relief” notes, are still unredeemed. Reading Rail Road at the board to- day, was firm at 20. Cause of rise, demand from the east. a —— Treatricat.—The Park has got out of the “straw” and is now doing well. The Chatham is brisk—Bowery gone—and the Olympic we fear is a-going. Pants anp Pottics.—Luther Bradish wears the the neatest pants in Broadway. Is not that good reason to make him governor? D—n the expense. Nrnto’s.—The Ravels and troupe in three enter: tainments this evening. The new pantomime still attracts full gardens, and from all appearances will continue to do so for some time to come. The se- cret of the matter is, it is so well brought out—par- ties having once seen it, are sure to repeat their visit. Edge had a splendid saloon on Wednesday, and his display of Fireworks was perfect—he cer- tainly is number one in his beautiful and complica- ted art. Tuat Feser Mermatp.—This half fish, half maid has produced an immense sensation here during the last few weeks. It remains at the American Muse- um this week, after which the manager assures posi- tively it cannot be seen. No person should fail to see it. Naturalists who believed the story of mer- maids to be a fable are perfectly non plus’d, and ac- knowledge their error. The other attractionsat the Museum thisweek are exceedingly rich, and how they can be afforded for 25 cents puzzles us. Two performances take place here daily. To Sensible Citizens. 0G WE KNOW FROM WHAT WE SEE AND feel, that the animal body, is in its organs and func tions, subject to derangement, inducing pain and tending toitsdestruction. In this disordered state, we observe na- ture providing for the re-establishment of order, by ex- citing some salutary evacuation of the morbific matter, or by some other operation, which escapes our imperfect senses and researches. In some cases she brings on a crisis by the bowels, at others by sweating, &e. &e. Now experience has taught us that there are certain ‘substances, by which, applied to the living body, inter- nally or externally, we can at will produce the same evacuations, and thus do in a short time, what nature could do but slowly, and do effectually what shemight not have strength to accomplish. When then we have seen a disease cured by a certain xgtunat evacuation, should that disease occur again, we @iay count upon cu- ring it by the useof such substanc§e, as we know bring about the same evacuation, which we Rad before observed to cure a similar disease. % It is in consequenee of the power which the: BRANDRETH PILLS exert upon the whole system, that makes them so univer- sally beneficial. It is because they impart to the body the power to expel disease without leaving any evil effect. Asa general Family Medicine BRANDRETH’S PILLS are,it is believed by the Proprietor,superior to every other offered to the public. And when the manner of preparing the ingredients of which they are composed shall be pub- licly known, the public will be of the same opinion.— Some three months ago Dr. Brandreth entered a caveat with a general statement of the manner in which he pre- pares his extracts from the roots of various plants, and in about six weeks afterwards out comes a New Extract or Sansaranitia, and a machine is spoken of. Now it is rather singular that this method should not have been discoyered until after Doctor Brandreth’s statement had been filed in the Patent Office. No machine was ever used until Dr. B. Brandreth invented the one he uses.

HENRY’S RHEUMATIC SYRUP IS COM posed of articles entirely from the amet kingdom, and itacts solely by its wonderful purifying properties. That it so acts is’ proved from the fact that persons who have taken the rg nd at the same time have had some other disease in the system with rheumatism, have been sur- prised to find all go off together. A gentleman at West- chester is now giving the syrup to his young son for Scro- fula, or King’s Evil, and he is recovering rapidly. | Mrs. Smith, No. 11 York street, is also giving it to her son, a joung man about eighteen years old, who is getting well. This been a most deplorable case of Scrofula, Mr. Lawrence, 69 North Moore street, was cured of the Rheu- matism, and at the same time of acough which he had been troubled with for more than a year. A young lady, a school teacher, corner of Essex and Stanton streets, has been cured of an imetuate sick or nervous headache, which she has had for twenty years. Previous to using the syrup she never escaped an attack longer than two days—oftener she had it every day. She has not now had an attack since the first part of July, the time she com- menced the syrup. She can be seen at any time there du- ring school hours. We mention these instances to show the wonderful purifying powers of this medicine and its congeniality'to the human system. But it is in rheuma- tism that we boast of it, and here we say it is not only unequalled but no other medicine roaches itin effi- cacy. For certificates of cures in this disease we refer the = lic to the back numbers of the Herald, Sun, Atlas, ‘imes, &c., Where will be found more than thirty, with street and number, of those who have been perfectly cured by this remedy.

Gents—My wife has been afflicted for the last two or three years with a severe cough, accompanied with a great pain and bleeding at the lungs. The cough has been fo severe at times that during the paroxysms o ‘coughing, theblood would fly from her mouth and nostrils. She made trial of numberless remedies, and her Ve ford pronounced hercase incurable. But luckily last winter she made use of your invaluable compound Hoarhound Candy, and the result was such as to leave a happy im- ression upon her mind of itsefficacy and virtues.

QG@- THERE IS NO ARTICLE IN THE MATERIA Medica, of which so many spurious and inert prepara- tions, have been offered, as Sarsaparilla. Indeed, many members of the medical profession go the length of de- nying in toto, the efficacy of this invaluable drug, and they hers been led to this disbelief of its virtues, by the wretehed mixtures which have been and are at’ present palmed on the public, as genuine extracts of the article. The College desire no et and more intelligible proof of the worthlessness of these mixtures, than that evidence which is afforded by the very advertisements of their manufacturers. The frequent extravagant puffs which are thrust before the publigs bearon their front the impress of the most impudent quackery. Powers are as- cribed to Sarsaparilla which it does not reall and certificates of ‘alleged cures, represented to have been ef- fected by ite use, are araded at length, whilst every educated physician, well knows that no such results could by any paeaibility have followed from the use even of the most carefully prepared extracts: of Sa It is underthese circumstances, and in accordance with their extended plan of suppressing all descriptions of me- dical imposture, that the “College of Medicine and Phar- macy” offer to the notice of the public, rei ne thee Extract OF SARSAPARILLA. is article has been prepared at great expense, accord. ing to the new process cfthe-Parisian pharmaceutists, and isconfidently denominate1 the onty really valuable prepa- ration of Sarsaparilla now offered for sale in this country. Together with the active principle of the Smilax offici- valis—the best species of the root—the College have incor- rated that ‘uliar modification of sugar, which has a termed glycyrrhizin. In the “Extracts” of the nos- trum-venders and certain druggists, the common extract of liquorice is the chief ingredient, and can readily be de- tected. But it is proper to state that in most cases this extract of liquorice is adulterated, and contains copper de- rived from the pans in which the decoction of the root is evaporated. The College wish thus particularly to guard the public against the pernicious tendency of mixtures, containing large quantities of this poisoned liquorice. The “ Extract,” prepered by the College, contains also an ap- propriate quantity of the peculiar crystallizable principle, Chtained from that valuable vegetable bitter, Gentian, (#0 called from Gentius, King of Illyria, who first discovered its great virtues.) A small portion of the active constitu: ents of the Laurus Sassafras, another le, whose efficacy as an alterativeand purifier of the blood is well known, has likewise been added. These several articles have been incorporated, and their peculiar principles compounded in a highly concentrated form, andthe re- sult has been the production of @ veneene alterative and tonic, unequalled for power and efficacy.

M, The transactions at the Stock Board were small to- day, and prices were heavy. Illinois 6's fell } per cent ; Kentucky 6’s } ; Delaware and Hudson } ; Farmers’ Loan 4;Mohawk } Stonington rose 1 per cent. A sale of United States 6 per cent stock was made yesterday at 101, having’ over 1 per cent interest accumulated on it. This fact was published by the Express, with great glorifica tion, ag the effect of the new tariff, the sale being repre sented at a premium, when really ata discount. The fact is, that effeet, supposed to be produced by the tariff, has already passed away. Somedealers put up the prices of their geods, but they cannot realise. People will not submit to the high prices, being convinced that the dutios will be modified at the coming session of Congress. Meantime, dealers buy oaly to supply immediate wants, and importers do: not order goods more than sufficient scarcely to keep up their assortment. They are convinced that stocks now here are greater than are necessary— while the foreign) market for domestic produce is so re- stricted. This being the state of affairs, the Government revenues will be very small; and when importations are wanted for the spring trade, the mercantile community , will put forth their energies, and compel a modification ofpresent rates. The idle clamor, got up in relation to the increased employment givento workmen in the manu- factories, is pure stage trickery. Many factories reduced their work, and discharged their hands in order to pro- duce an effect in procuring the passage of the tariff. Now that the objest is obtained, the re-employment of those hands is ascribed to the good effect of the tariff, when the truth is, domestic goods are lower than ever, and likely to be still worse, for the reason that the foreign demand for produce is cut off by excluding foreign goods in payment. The following table will show the prices of the leading articles of domestic goods in the Boston market, at diffe- rent periods -— Prices or Loweut Manufactures ann or Uruanp Cort- TON IN THE Boston Marxxt.

The fact is, however, that at these low prices, with corresponding rates for raw materials, the manufacturers do better than in 1839, when prices were 20 per cent higher than now. The operation of the tariff must be to restrict their sales, and render them less prosperous in the end. There is much indignation expressed among the holders of bills of Vermont broken safety fund banks, and with good reason. It isnow three years since that most atro- cious concern, the Essex Bank of Guildhall, tailed. its assets were taken from the creditors by proceedings in’ Chancery, on the application of the Bank Commissioners, What has become of those assets? The bill holdets have never received a cent. The Vermont safety fund is most ridiculous humbug—not one dollar of it is in exist- ence. Itis a mere ‘ decoy-duck,” by which the assets of failing bank are drawn into the hands of commissioners, from whom they are never recovered, Instead of the words “Vermont Safety Fund” on the face of a bill being @ guarantee of safety, itis a mere notice that the concern is marked as a victim to the spoilers. All such bills should be avoided. The Legislature of Vermont, for the honor of the State, should take prompt and active measures to investigate the misdeeds that have been practised by the Bennington, Essex, andother Banks, and take measures to prevent such doings for the futare. The defalcations that take place among the employees of banks, br-kers, and monied institutions, can be no mat- ter of surprise to those who observe the “ silence, or when not silent, the paliating publications of most of the city papers,” in relation to the enormous bubbles that have of late exploded, involving men of “ high stations, extensive connections, wealth and influence,” in transactions of the most bare-faced and atrocious rascality. The last exposure, that of the American Life and Trust Company, was one, the attempted justification of which is enough to corrupt all and every person engaged in the management of monied concerns in trust for others. Here is a concern. with a capital of $2,000,000,he subscriptions of a large number of individuals, fails outright. On examining its assets we find that W. H. Seward, John Duer, Daniel ‘Webster, Charles A. Davis, with fifteen other individuals, have seized and divided among themselves $1,177,600 of the capital. These people have borrowed $3,600,000 in London, and mortgaged themselves, their bonds, mort- gages, and promises, in payment. The Secretary of the United States, and the Governor of the State of New York, are pledged for dishonored bonds to London brokers. ‘The publication of this fact is called, by that superb spe- cimen of ‘pride in rags,” who edits the New York Ame- rican, an “ unwarrantable exposure of a private concern.” ‘This identical personage, with the same clique who have divided the spoils of that devoted company, were the in- struments of procuring the indictment, in 1826, of indi- viduals connected with the Life and Fire Co. of that day, some of whom were sent to the State Prison. If those persons were deserving of indictment and punishment, how much more deserving of it are the perpetrators ofthe frightful frauds which’ are daily “ palliated and justified” by a.corrupt and venal press. ‘W. H. Seward has published a long letter, in which he seeks to mystify his connection with shinplaster Scher- merhorn in the Chautauque land speculation. He endea- vors to make it appear, of course, that he did st from pure- ly disinterested motives, merely to benefit the “ dear peo- ple”—nothing more. The oiticers of the U.S. Bank en tered the cotton market from purely patriotic motives.— They put the profits in their own pockets,'and charged the losses upon the Bank for the same reason. Governor Seward’s operation was simply this : He with his partners bought of the Holland Land Company a certain track of land in Chautauque County, on which there were settlers who were paying for their farms as they could earn the money ; when their farms were paid for they received their deeds, Inthe very hey-day of paper speculation, Seward & Co. came forward and bought the whole track over the heads of the settlers, as he states for $900,000.— Part of this tract was settled and part unsettled. The ob- ject was then to make the settlers pay for the whole track out oftheir labor, and leave the unsold lands in the hands of Seward & Co, as their part of the speculation. The claims of the Holland Company upon the settlers were not in a negotiable form ; therefore Seward & Co. first agreed with the Company that they should take bonds of the American Life and Trust in payment for the Iands.— They then went to the Life and Trust, and agreed to give the mortgages of the settlers, bearing interest, for the Company's bonds. ‘They then went to the settlers end wheedled them into taking full titles for their farms, and giving bonds and mortgages for the balance due. To pay these bonds and the interest on them, thasettlers were to toil and sweat, and when they were paid they would be in possession of their own little farms; but Seward & Co. would also be in possession of a large track, for which they had doze nothing but cajolethe “dear people.” The neXt step was to render these lands more valuable by wheedling and‘coaxing the whole State to spend $10,000,- 000 m building the Erie Railroad—which “noble work,”
