NEW YORK HE®ALD New York, Monday, October 3, 1 Sream Suur Cotumpia.—This noon this steam will be out thirteen days. We shall probably r ceive her news to-morrow morning. It will be to the 20th-ult. Look for an Extra Herald Revival of Business. ‘There ié a positive revival of busi out these day * Whatever be the cause,the fact is cer tive t ted with banks, corporations,or weighty who! val may ishments, this he move hand-to-mouth branches of tra ful, active, glass of soci In our own busmess, the newspaper printing line, we know the fact, snd make the following statement, extract. ed by our cashier from our cash book :— Ner Weexcy Recesers oy tHe N. ¥.Hematp ror rie Daree Ivoicatep, av THE Diveement Pemiops—1942 Jus 1 $1915 40 Sept. 3to 10 S838 1 % 15ol 4 wt 17 297 3h July 2 1164 76 ts a 1706 21 9 1443 35 2% to Oct. 1 2216 53 6304 92 8,318 22 his statement presents an increase for the month end ing October 1, of $2014 over that for the month ending July 2. This remarkablejaggregate amount and increase a sound and steady regular business, consisting of an crease of circulation and advertising. Our regular issue daily aud weekly, independent of the vast quantities of extras we throw off, is over THIRTY THOUSAND, being TEN THOUSAND over that of any othe paper in York, and circulating too, among the best quality of t siness men, the steady dealers of all ranks, bankers, fi ciers, merchants, farmers, and professional men through- out the Union. ‘This is our newspaper business. Our General Prin Establighment, entrance 97 Nassau street, has been org: nized only since last January, and has been conducted by Mr. Joseru Ex.ior in a manner, that in beauty of execu- tion, and elegance of typography, equals, if it does not outstrip, every thing of the kind inthe country. ‘This es- tablishment is now printing three periodicals, the Lan- cet,” the “Artist” and the “Atheneum,” besides a vast quantity of general work in books, pamphlets, cards, bills, &c., amounting nearly to $1000 per week, all Cash prices and cash payments. Many new pieces of enterprise are projected, which will probably increase.the amount of this braoch of the estab ishment to $2000 per week—or $100,000 per annum —a sum nearly equal to the movement of the Herald ishment. These movements, equal to 000 per annum, have grown up from almost since May 1835, by the exertion of talent, indus- try, tact, enterprise, and the selection ané employment of the most competent men in every department, and at the highest salaries. ‘These facts are the strongest indications of the progress and the revival of sound trade on a right basis—for if general trade be not prosperous, the news- paper or printing business must languish. Trade is therefore reviving in the right quarters, be- yond the possibility of a doubt, whatever politicians may say, or swear. It is positive and certain, and we have only to add to it, perseverance, economy, and sobriety, to make it the most prosperous age of the world on thisside of the water, nothin JAMES GORDON BENNETT, PRoPRigron oF THE Henatp Newsraren axp Genenat Pastina Estanuisnment, North west corner of Fulton § Nassau streets. New Yorx, Oct. 3, 1842, P.S.—Advertisemeats, subscriptions, and orders for every kind of priuting, received and executed on the most reasonable terms, for cash payments only. The Admtnisiration—Its Position, Prospects and Purposes, It will be seen by the remarkable developments made by Daniel Webster at Boston, that the recent views which we gave of the policy and prospects of the Administration at the approaching session of Congress were correct tothe letter. That policy is wise, honest and patriotic in the extreme. Let us proceed with further views, There have beena great many rumors about movals and changes in the Cabinet, and new ap- pointments in ligh places ; but we doubtif any will take place until after the fall elections. According to present appearances, Mr. Webster will retain his in the Cabinet for some time longer; and if any early change takes place, it will be in the T sary Department, owing to the peculiar unfitness‘of place to look at the position in which they stand in this respect, and to take some stand, to make some effort, some powertul movement, to #ipe away the stain, deeper than a wound, which at present dishonors r | them so much. All these views, and these measures, will invest the coming elections, and the movements of the General Government, and the approaching session of Congress, with the highest importance ; and we | fully expeet that Mr. Webster will treat fully on these matters when he passes through this city, in a few days. He desires most heartily to review the whole of the present state of political parties in this country, and no where could he do it so effectively asin the great city of New York. There are no Lowell calico coats or breeches with which to fetter his gigantic proportions here as in Boston Never was there a time since the days ot Washing- ton, when two or three men properly supported by the people, had the power and the disposition to do so much for the country, as at the present. We now possess an administration whose position we understand, and that seems to be disposed to act honestly. We see the position of Mr. Webster—we see the position of M:. Tyler—clear and well de- fined ; and we see that they have, in an age of cor- ruption, folly, intrigue, and villainy unparalleled, kept a single eye to the national honor and national good, thrown all party considerations to the winds; trampled on all petty political cliques, and rising far above all parties attained an elevation of moral grandeur that calls forth the spontaneous admiration of every honest man in the country. It isthe firsttime in the history of any country that we see a President without a party, a faction, ora clique to enforce his views ; and guided only by virtue, honesty, and patriotism, in the pursuit of the public good. This isa sublime moral spectacle that is rarely seen in public men, and whilst we hope for its continuance, we watch it with fear and trem- bling, as on it depends the preservation of sound morals, the religion, the integrity and the best in- stitutions of the country. Tue Rerortor Mr. Wensrer’s Sreecu.—The only report of Mr. Webster’s great speech at Boston, on Friday last, that has been given, or that will be given to the public, was published by us early on | Saturday morning. ‘This speech 1s given verbatim, as Mr. Webster spoke it, with the responses of the audience,and the cheers, &c., rendering it a per- fectly life like picture of what passed. The ‘Tri- bune” published a most shockingly garbled affair, which ithad the cool impudence to calla report of Mr. Webster’s speech. More than three fourths of the words in the Tribune report were the language of the Reporter and never spoken by Mr. Webster atall. We can prove this by the testimony of many respectable citizens who heard the speech, if necessary. But we will give one {specimen, out of five hundred that we might give of the trash which the “ Tribuae ” palmed off as Mr. Webster’s. Mr. Webster had been speaking of the arrest of MeLeod, and he went on thus, as given in the “Herald :” Trash reported in the Tri une Now, gentlemen, when Jespatches of the British Government first reached this country—though T do not think it useful nor im- portant to say much of them —yet if you knew all their contents, you would see that the commercial interests of the country, the shippiny ot the city, must all been crushed at once. You work for the people ot Alabama—they plant for you.and you want acommon medium, to equalize debt and credit with the same veloci- transports men ery. You have not got it—you can’t get it but by authority and permis- sion of Government—never, never, You want a large Mr. Forward to fiil the duties of that office. Itis certain that Mr. Cushing will not go in so long as Mr. Webster chooses to remain there. And we sincerely trust that the President may be induced by no one to attempt it, and thatno clique, or party, or persons, of anykind may seek to drive Mr.j\Web ster from the Cabinet so long as he thinks proper to remain in it, and exert his stupendous talents, as he has done, for the general good of the country, with- out regard to any party, clique, or set of men what- ever. Atauy rate, we hope Mr. Webster, knowing the great services which he can perform for the country, will maintain his place and his proud posi- tion. Mr. Cushing may probably bejealled on to ex- ert his talents as Minister to France in the place of Mr. Cass, who has a desire to return home. " Again—Mr. Webster will probably pass through this city in about ten or twenty days, when he may be induced to deliver a speech developing his views of the present state of parties and the political as- pect of the country. If he does it will be one of the most brilliant efforts ever seen or heard in this coun- and liberal provision for ¢ change, and without this you cannot reach the goal at which you aim. How will you doit? I need not say by a Bank of the United States, based upon private subscription : for that is out of the question. The man who pursues that follows an obsolete idea. Suppose a should establish a it? what will you give for a share? It is entirely out of Mr. Webster's exact words as reported in the Herald. Now, gentlemen, few days after the installation of General Harrison, the news of this reached Washington City. Idid not think it ne- cessary to say then—nor is important to say now, all that was then known on that subject. But I will tell you - in general that if all that was known at Wasington had been revealed to the country and the public—the shipping interest of this port and every other interest con- nected with th a8, would have been depressed one half in siz hours. (Cheers.) You work for the people of Jabama—you get tea for them—they plant for you You want a commoi ey, and something th equalize debt and credit with the same velocity that steam carries men and merch; dize from oe end ofthe Uni- on to the other. (Cheers.) You have not got it. In the nature of things you cannot get it, but by the authority and provision of govern men. Never, Never. A large and liberal provision ready ex. will enable every man to convert his New Oorle: morrow. (Cheers.) A cheap k, exchange, one which we have had in better times, when many millions were beep rarely at cost or more than three-fourths of the question. Takeit, then, for purposes of local dis- count—say in State street: do you want this untaxed one per cent. (Cheers.) How are we going to do it? How? Why, Ineedn’t say, gentle- men, that a bank of the Uni capital to make your dis- ted States, founded on a lar- counts ? ger subscription of private capital, is al ther out of the question. (Cheers.) And the man who pursues it pur. sues an obsolete ide (Cheers.) The country has changed—the condition of things has changed — the people are chan; 80 as to put that out of the question. (Cheers.) Suppose there was now a law lor estab) try from the lipsof man. After this he will go on to Washington, to join his associates in perfecting those great measures which are to be brought for- ward at the coming session of Congress, for the pa- cification of the country, and the general restora- tion of the credit and commerce of the whole land, still so lamentably prostrated. These views, and the recent developments made by Mr. Webster in his speech at{Faneuil Hall, were all shadowed forth by us a fortnight ago; although our statements were then flatly contradicted by the ‘Wall street papers, which are now thrown as flatly on their backs as they can be by the position assum- ed by Mr. Webster. There has been going on in Washington, for the last eighteen months, an extraordinary conflict— amounting almost to a little internal war—between a small clique called the corporal’s guard, and Mr. Webster; but we presume this has ceased for ever, as the former party have been nearly demolished by the events which have recently taken place, and, therefore, we trust that Mr. Webster’s path in the cabinet will be much smoother than it has been heretofore. The approachinge!ections will revolutionize poli- tical parties and put a new featare on the movements of the Executive. From recent appearances, and particularly the blow—amounting in force to a shot from a paxhan gun—which Mr. Webster has given to the ultra whig party, it is very evident the great State of New York will go against the latter, aud there will be a general rout and scattering of ) forces throughout the State. A great portiono. ine whig party will go against the ultra whigs, and many of those who are opposed to the present policy of the administration will stay at home, believing truly that if the ultra whigs had power, things would be infinitely worse. The eflect ot these changes will be felt and seen in the legislative body at Washing- ton ; and the effect they will produce on Congress will render the next session one of the most impor- tant that has ever been known in this country. The President will probably open the session with a message, in which he will shadow forth all those measures around which Mr. Webster, in his recent speech, has thrown so much light. The Colonial Trade, the Oregon Territory, the claims of our citi- zens on Mexico and other countries—claims which the power of the nation must be exerted to have settled—our internal affairs, a new currency, or some system by which the currency can be properly regulated, and a good system of exchange organised’ the Tariff may possibly again be re-touched, for it requires a great deal of re-touching, notwithstanding ‘ebster’s admiration of it; and beyond all ing a bank and fifty mill of ca) , with branches the South and West, loaned on private discount, who are going to subscribe?’ (Laugh- ter.) Where would you get the capital? (Renewed laughter. Now, gentle- men, the whole thing is out of the question; und for the purposes of local discount, take the question into State street to-morrow, and the answer will be equally de- cisive against it. Do you want the nation to send here aquantity of untaxed bank capital to partake of your discounts. You are perfect ly indifferent about rec ing it? Well, then, w shall we ever have? 1 repeat, gentlemen, that man who proposes to do no- thing for the country till a condition of things come when he can ablish a ubscrip- tion, may just as well post- pone it tili the incoming of the Jews. (Laughter and a ) Who, after reading the miserable rubbish placed in the mouth of Mr. Webster, would ever place the slightest dependence on any report that appeared in the Tribune again? And the above isa fair sample of the extreme inaccuracy of the Tribune report throughout. Now, although this might be tolerated in @ session’s trial, yet when a man occupying the position Mr. Webster does, makes a set speech on the affairs of the country, the people want to know what were the very words he used—they don’t want to read six orseven columns, three-fourths of which are the reporter’s own words, and not Mr. Web- ster’s. The pretended report in the “Sun” was still worse, and both were miserable impostures—abor- tions. And it could not be otherwise. The “ Sun” had no reporter there at all, and the Tribune had but one reporter, and he was wholly unacquainted with stenography. Now every one knows it is ut- terly impossible, without the aid of stenography, to report any public speaker accurately. On the con, trary, we sent two of the best reporters in the coun- try there—men of great talent and great experience in reporting; they each took full notes of what Mr. Webster said, so that they did not lose half a dozen words ina speech of nearly two hours duration. It has been pronounced tobe wonderfully accurate by all who heard it; and any one wanting a true report of that speech, can obtain it by calling at the Herald office, as we printed an extra number. Well, what shall we ever have? for I repeat it, many gentlemen propose to do no- thing ; but to postpone every thing ‘till the incoming of the Jews. ‘ton of the public lands as connected ‘the States. Then there is dit and repudiation, portance not only ‘hich it has on the 1 it is absolutely several States, as from low to high, Sream rrom Boston, any Steam rrom New York.—The steam ship Acadia sailed from Boston on Saturday afternoon for Liverpool, with but twelve passengers for England, while the Great Western, which sailed hence last Thursday carried thirty. Thisahows that the Boston steamers cannot compete with the New York steamers in passen- gers. When will the owners of the Boston line end their steamers to this port? Scunery anp Supping in Maing.—We have lately received one or two interesting letters from the Kennebec, deseril the appearance of that river, and the ships building on its banks. 1t has loug been known that the Kennebec is one of the most beautiful streams of water in America. Itruns from the Atlantic to Moose Head Lake, and meanders through a lovely country, with a cottage here, a country’seat there—a ship vard at one point, and villages situated at a dozen diflerent places on either side of that not very rapid running stream. It is navigable for sloops as high up as Augusta, a dis- tance of fifty-five miles, and large ships are yearly launched at Pittston, a prosperous town on the east bank, below the seat of government. In going up this river, every traveller is struck with the beauty of the estate of Robert Gardner, Eaq., on the west side, ani\ about twenty-five miles | from its mouth. It is more like the country seat of arich noblemanjof England, than of a republican gentleman of America—a country scarcely out of her teens. The grounds of this estate are tastefully laid out, and the dwelling is built of granite, and cost one hundred thousand dollars. This manor adds much to the scenery around and about that point. Above, on the east bank, is Pittston, the enter prizing village. At this place there are now build- ing two of the finest ships ever turned off from any yard. One of them, which is nearly ready for launching, is called the Sabattis, pronounced Sah- bah-tis, and named after the Indian who gallantly guided Arnold and his army of choice spirits to Que- bec in 1775, by the way of the Chaudiene. This ship is four hundred and fifty tons burthen, copper fastened, built of white oak, the greater part of which was hewn out nearly two years ago, and having been kept under cover till wanted for the construction 6f the Sabattis, became thoroughly seasoned. She was built by Mr. Haines, under the superintendencejof the Messrs. Stevens, to whom and others she belongs. She is to be commanded by Capt. Cox, and is intended for the freighting busi- ness. If she become as famous among mercantile men for her good qualities, and her officers and crew for their seamanship, as the Indian, whose name she bears, was among his tribe, it will doubtless be a matter of no small interest to her owners. But this is not all that was mentioned in our letters. This last summer has been one of some interest to Pittston. Near the spot where the above ship is on the stocks, is a mineral spring of a rare kind, yet not much known till lately. It has been visited by more persons this season than any previous one. It was frequented by General Dear- born, and its waters are pronounced equal to those of Saratoga. It is expected that in future seasons this spring will be a place of much fashionable re- sort. We shall see. All those who are fond of the picturesque had bet- ter visit the Kennebec next summer. Tue Fivanciersi—When will the Wall street financiers, who have relieved widows and orphans of nearly $16,000,000 of property in various compa- nies, banks and trusts, during the last three years, be brought before the Grand Jury? Does any body remember the Life and Fire indictments of 1826— °27% Are the small financiers to be punished—but the big ones escape ? Burstine nis Brercues.—The Boston wits say, Mr. Webster, the steam-engine, has been wearing breeches of Lowell calicoes for years—but he has burst them at last—and scalded only a large quantity ot clay.” In a Srew.—The whigs are ina stew with the speech of Mr. Webster. Wall street was full of groups discussing the speech all Saturday. Itisa bomb shell thrown into their camp—and will scat- ter them hither ard thither. Crests at THE Bowery.—Monet ror Conaress- meN.—We have forgotten to state that Celeste made aspeech at the Bowery last Thursday night. It is as follows :— Cexeste, coming down to the foot-lights :— Oh, how happy Tam to see you once more, Your present kind- ness, and the recollection of many, many past favors, al- most checks my utterance. From the moment I began my professional career in America to the preeat hour, I have always found you the same to me—kind, generou enthusiastic! Should I notthen be grateful?’ Oh! yes, 1am, indeed Lam. Abroad or at homa; I have ever spoken of the debt of gratitude I owe toa Bowery audience—a debt only to be paid with my life! 1 am fatigued—I must take my leave. May happiness attend you and yours forever. Again and again, I thank you for this truly American welcome home !” To-night is her benefit; she will make another speech, which will be reported, word for word, by our splendid corps of reporters. Celeste is a won- derful creature. She appears in comedy to-night. She has improved the Bowery—almost made a gentleman of Hamblin—and bids fair to clear $12,000 in three weeks, by her great talent—re- markable versatility, and comprehensive powers— including tragedy, comedy, melo-drama, ballet and oratory. Cuatnam Treatre.—The exertions, oaths, hard praying, great expenditures—and damn-your-eyes of Tom Hamblin, only makes Thorne more cool, more quiet, exhibit more generalship, and bring forth his hidden tact. The moment that Hamblin engaged Celeste and tripped up the poor Park, Thorne brought out Sin- clair, the great antique in Italian and Scotish song, but yet as fresh as a green old age can make him— including La Compte, the danseuse—a corps of dan- cers—and other matters and things in general and in particular. The consequence has been that the Chatham is crowded nightly—while the Olympic is so-so—and the Park gloomy. Nothing will do now a days in theatricals, but variety, energy, prompti- tude and character. This sustains Thorne. When Celeste leaves the Bowery, where will Tom Ham- blin be? At the end of his line. The Otymric.—Heavy. ‘The Parx.—Heavier. Vandenhofi has closed a bad week. The Broughams begin to-morrow? What will they be? We'll see. Alas! poor Park, you are behind the age Musicat..—Don’t forget that Dempster gives ano- therconcert to-night at the Athenwum Rooms, Broad- way. He sings a song written by Epes Sargeant— another by George P. Morris—and another by John Smith, Jr. Dempster is a beautiful ballad singer, and is fond of haggis. Don’t forget that Rapetti gives a concert at the Tabernacle to-morrow evening. ‘The Rev. David Hale will be present on a free ticket. Rapetti, An- tognini, Martini, Rakemann, &c., go in a bunch. It will be brilliant. Rapetti is a good violinist, and is tond of macaroni. Don’t forget that Signor de Begnis, assisted by the Seguins, will give a concert on Thureday evening at the Apollo Rooms. Good again. De Begnis is a brilliant genius, with great tact, and alse is fond of macaroni. Don’t forget that the Suttons, including Madame, her husband, and little daughter Emeline, who has made her debut as a beautiful gem in music, will be here soon to give a concert on their own hook, without aid from any quarter. Mrs. Sutton will sing Italian, German, French, English, Scotch, and Trish pieces—in scenas, arias, songs, ballads, &c. She is now in Albany, going to Boston, and will soon be here. She has travelled from Niagara Falls to Albany, singing all the way with extraordi- nary eclat. Preparations ror Winter.—We have obtained from Shepard & Co., at Nott’s stove warehouse, No 242 Water street, a new stove for our publicavion office, which, for beauty, neatness, economy, and durability, has never been equalled. It is compact, elegantly finished off, and adapted for parlors, stoves, offices, school rooms, or halls. It istcalled a “ Re- veberator,” is constructed ona new principle, and isthe most efficient and economical stove we ever remember to have seen. By the heat passing from the top down one column to the base, thence up another column, the largest room can be warmed to any temperature, from 30 deg. to 120 deg. All those in want of stoves, had better look at this one in our office before they purchase, City Intelligence. Tux Common Counct..—Both Boards of Aldermen meet thisevening at five o'clock to talk, talk, talk, avout five hours about nothing. Let them get at work at the hour, act and not talk, and the public will be better satisfied with their labors. Gentlemen of the Police Committee, how about that reform ordinance? Shall we ever see it ? If so, pray tell us when? ‘Tue Fat Races over the Union Course, L. I. com mence to-morrow. There are a mber of excellent horses upon the ground, and there will be two races each day for the four days, Much excellent «port may be expected. Sma.t. Porators.—The County Court will be convened to-morrow to try Justices Matsell, Parker, and Stevens for discharging some few vagrants tromBlackwell’s|Island, 4 crime that has been committed by every police magis- trate that has held office since the office was created. This is small business, and no doubt the tax payers will be pleased with this additional mode of grinding their noses on a political grindstone. Exoamovs Increase or Carme.—From the following ca lendar of indictments fer the various offences to be tried at the October term of the Court of General Sessions, which commences this morning, it will be seen that crime is most astonishingly on the increase in our city. And is it to be wondered at when developments of fraud and rob- beries perpetrated by men who have held public places and stood high in posts of honor and confidence, are daily ex- hibited to the community. Is it to be considered astonish- ing when the public are robbed of their thousands by their public servants, who “ step out” until the excite- ment has partially subsided, and having squandered their ill-gotten gain by extravagance and debauchery, return to the land they have robbed and walk through the streets of our city withoutjfear of arrest or molestation? [sit to bewon- dered at when our public institutions are robbed of their means by men entrusted with the direction of the funds forthe general welfare of the stockholders, and many of the latter left penniless? The only wonder is that crimes of the magnitude below named are so few, and thet our prisons are not overflowing with petty criminals, for such Must they be classified when contrasted with those who roba whole peor and leave the widow and the orphan destitute of the s of life. ‘The following is the list :— Grand Larceny, 36 Assault and Battery with Petit do. | 13 intent to kill, 4 Burglary, 12 Misdemeanors, 9 Libel, 6 Embezzlements, 4 Perjury, 5 Riot & Assault & Battery, 8 Rape, 2 Disorderly House, 7 Forgery, 26 Bigamy, 2 Assauli and Battery, 90 Kidnapping, 2 False Pretences 27 Nuisance, 2 Violating Grave, 1 Conspiracy, 2 Manslaughter, 1 Highway Robbery, 3 Obscene Books and Receiving Stolen Goods, 5 Prints, 11 Duelling, 1 281 Of these one hundred and sixty-five were found by the Grand Jury during the recent September term, and ttity- seven cases were by them, making ‘in all two hundred and twenty-two cases disposed of by the Grand Jury during that term, including the one against Webb for dueling. Democratic axp WuHiG SenatortaL Coxvention.— ‘The Democratic delegates of this senatorial district, meet at Tammany Hall on Tuesday, to nominate a candidate for State Senator. The choice is conceded as belonging to King’scounty, and, in all probability, John A- Lott, present member of Assembly from that county, will be nominated. ‘The delegates of the city meet at Tammany to- night, to select thirtuon from their number to represent the city in the convention that meets to-morrow. ‘The Congressional delegates also meet at Tammany to- morrow eveuiug for org nization merely, as they after- wards adjourn to such place as may be selected in their respective districts to nominate a member of Congress. ‘he Whig Sena convention meets at the Broad- way House on ‘Tuesday of next week. The Whig Ward meetings to elect delegates to nomi- nate members of Congress, Senator, members of Assembly and County Register, take place to-morrow evening. Cuanuey Stone, auias Frencu Jack, Loose acain.— This man, who was arrested some several weeks since for stealing $1000 note from a gentleman from Alabama, through the attstance of his paramour, and then placed in prison, was released on bail at the time. Not appear- ing at the call fo trial, the bail was forfeited, and he was surrendered last week. On Saturday he was again taken out under a writ ofhabeas corpus, and Judge Jesse Oak- ley took the security he offered, and allowed him to run at large. Who is the bail? A Darina Rocus.—A fellow, who says his name is Bob Mitchell, entered the jewelry store of Messrs. J. & A. Imbery, 331 Grand street, on Saturday evening, and en- quired of Mr. J. H. Heller, who was in attendance, the price of cleaning a watch, &c., and while thus engaging the attention of the clerk, slipped his hands under the glass case, and abstracted two gold lepine watches valued at $35 each, and two piated chains worth $3. In putting down the top of the case he was detected. and on searching the scoundrel the articles were found in his possession. Fully committed ‘This is the same rascal that commit: ted the robbery at the Hotel in Cortlandt street some few days since in company with Alexander Danforth, who is to be tried this week. A Dounir Deat—The coroner was called yesterday to hold an inquest on the body of Mrs Mary Ann Hall, wife of John Hall, a native of England, who died suddenly on Saturday night at the house of George Greason, in Tenth street, near Sixth Avenue. ‘The Jury returned the following verdict;—“ That Mary Ann Hall came to her death by dropsy of the heart, and that her infant child was born dead during the insensibility of her mother.” ‘Another inquest was held on the body of Betsy Moylan, 4 woman of iotemperate habits, who died at 31 Willett street irom the effects of intoxication. Reticiovs Inreviicence.—The French Episcopal church under the Rectorship of the Rev. Mr. Verren, was attended by a numerous concourse yesterday morning. Sr. Peter’s—Rossini’s ‘“Stabat Mater” was performed at St. Peter’s church yesterday morning. The hymn, as newly revived, is divided info ten parts, the character of the mulic being different in each part, thus giving full scope to the vigor_and va- riety of his powers. Sprenpip INTELLECTUAL anp Paysicat Frstivais. —To-morrow the commencement of Columbia College will be celebrated in the Dutch Church—Dr. Mason, President. All the learning, beauty, genius, talent and elegance of the city will be present. Ex- ercises at 10. To-morrow will be also celebrated, at the Union Race Course, the fall meeting of the most superb horses, male and female, in the country, under the presidency of J. Prescott Hall and John A. King. It will be a great physical display. Exercises at}. Nor Invicrep.—The Rev. David Hale is the only editor we believe in this city, not under indictment. We must have David indicted for somcthing—for a sinner in general, will do very well. §g- Tuap Prevrs was very properly let out yes terday to go to church and repent his obstinacy. Good. —The laughable piece called the Three Faced Frenchman, is given this evening, in which th ita ble Gabriel sustains four characters, and Antoine three. Mr. and Miss Wells also appear in it. The entertain. ments terminate with the Green Monster. This magnifi- cent pantomime is as popular as its predecessor, Mazulme, ‘The gardens are crowded nightly. QG- Every person wio is fond of amusement, or of viewing the wonderful works of nature, should visit the American Museum this week. The cele brated Mr. Nellis, born without arms, exhibits his pleas- ing performances. Also, the surprising mechanical Fi. gures of Signor Vivaldi, and many other rare novelties, including the sweet singing of Miss Hood, the beautiful dancing of Celeste, &c. For the accommodation of ladies, children, and others, performances will be given every afternoon and evening. The audiences here, although large, are very select and respectable, the greater portion being ladies. Latest From Yucatan.—The schooner Laura Virginia, Capt. Thompson, arrived yesterday in six from Campeachy, brings the latest advices. The Mexicans had not arrived off the port when the L.

In point of typographical beauty, this work may proudly compare with any extant; clearly showing how much may be done by dint of elevated private enterprize in rivalry of book sellers who have hither- to vainly supposed that they could enjoy a monopoly in every other class of publications, besides news- papers. The additional publicity given to prea cals by the active agency for which the Herald office is undeniably renowned throughout the civilized world, is Mckinaly advantageous, not only to pub- lishers, but to the fertility of the public mind, en- riching as it does the common intellect with fruits of genius, which would otherwise be accessible only to the accustomed few. Much, however, as we are bound to commend these two periodicals, both in point of literary con- tents and manual execution, they are, we learn, to be surpassed, in the former respect at least, as well as in graphic adornment, by one which we are making the most elaborate efforts to speedily an- nounee. This will be a work which may produce, not what is commonly called a mere sensation, but an extraordinary excitation in the public mind. t will be highly novel in all its characteristics, and particularly in that of its containing a more imnme- diate report of the Parisian fashions than any of its transatlantic competitors ; while its literary matter will be contributed, at whatever cost, by the best writers of both hemispheres.

This article has been prepared at great expense, accord- ing to thenew of the Parisian pharmaceutists, and isconfidently denominated the only 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- porated that peculiar modification of sugar, which has een termed g/ycyrrhizin. In the “Extracts” of the nes trum-venders and certain druggists, the common extruct of liquorice is the chief ingredient, and can readily bede 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 larg® quantities of this poisoned liquorice. The “ Extract,” prepered by the College, contains also an ap- propriate quantity of the peculiar crystallizable principle, obtained from®hat valuable vegetable bitter, Gentian, 0 called from Gentius, King of Illyria, who first dise overed its great virtues.) A portion of the active constitu- ents of the Zaurus Sassafras, vegetable, whose etticacy 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 a vegetable alterative and tonic, unequalled for power and efficacy: ‘The College merely wid the following extract from the edition just published of Brande’s “ Practical Dictionary ofthe Materia Medica:”— . “ This article has been prescribed in chronic rheuma- tism—in obstinate cutaneous eruptions—in indolent ulcers—in glandular aftections—in diseases of the bones, attended by dull aching pains, tumors and nodes—wasting of the flesh—and it has proved a valuable remedy, and has sometimes effected a cure where other alteratives have bern long administered in vain, and when the diseased state of the system has Jven of many years duration.

It must be done while there is distress abroad; and the pre- tence must be to relieve the people ofthat distress. If you delay it until business has revived, and the people are in prosperous circumstances, that pretence won’t hold, and you fail of your paper machine altogether. In this view Mr, Webster emphatically exclaims — Now, he is more sanguine than I,who looks to see a time within ‘a reasonable period when the whigs of this coun- try will have more power to work effectually for good, in relation to this grout object of the currency than they now have. (Loud cheers.) This very moment—this approach- ing session—calls upon them, in my judgment, in the loud- est voioe of patriotism, not to put off and not to an soy but to make the most—the best—of the means beforethem , and try the experiment.
