NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Thursday, October 13, 1842 To Railroad Conductors—Postmaste Steamboat Captains—Politictans, &c. We will thank all Railroad Conductors, Postmasters, Steambont Cap ains, Politicians of both sides—and all other such personages to forward to the Hexarp Orrick, New York, the full and accurate returns of their several elections, in state, city or town--particularly in the «lec tions now at hand in New Jersey, Obio, Pennsylvania, New York and other states. Those who give us valuable early information, will receive our thanks, and be placed on the free list of the New York Herald Extraordinary Proceedings In the Court of Seasions—Col, Webb pleaded Guilty, In our report of the Sessions of this d readers will find that James Warsox Wes, of the Courier and Enquirer, has pleaded guilty to the indi tfound against him, and that on Tues- next he will be brought up to receive his een- ence What this sentence may be we know not, but whatever it is, we understand that petitions will be presented Governor Seward, and hopes are enter- tained ot a pardon. We hope so—we sincerely hope so. There is no wish to push matters too far—and we also hope that the Governor will extend the same mercy to the pugillists—to the libellers—to the thieves—indeed, that there may be a general am- nesty and jail delivery before his Excellency goes out of office. We have had a Bankrupt Law to cancel all debts—let us have a general pardon to eancelall crimes and offences above petty larceny. Let us all rub out and begin again. On these grounds we hope that mercy may be ex- tended to Mr. Webb; and we will even go so far asto indorse, not his paper, but his behavior for two years to come. One remark more—all these edi- tors and politicians, who were the most active and malicious in getting up indictments and prosecutions to put down the Herald and its editor, begin now to find thatthey have been meddling with a two-edged aword—that the game has reacted on themselves. They sowed the whirlwind, and now reap the storm. Apministration oF Je ¢—INDICTMENTS—CON~ remprs.—For some months past there have been great efforts made in certain quarters to annoy a particular portion of the press with indictments, citations, and other processes of law, for what they call libels, and contempt of Court. [t is very re- markable, however, that all these valuable eflorts of our judiciary have been contined to that portion of the press which, by doing business on cash prin- ciples, and exhibiting superior enterprise, has grown, and is growing into such power and strength, as to be on the point of taking away the sceptre from Judah, which has hitherto reigned in Wall street. Now, if any person who is without bias or pre- jndice, will examine for the last two or three years the columns of the Wall street papers, they will find therein dav after day, and even up to this day, the highest officers in the land, judges, civil and military men, members ot Congress, merchants and all classes, libelled in the grossest manner imagin- able ; past all beliet for its enormity, except upon a demonstration. And yet we see no praise-worthy efforts made by our judiciary, no grand jury ready to act in this matter—no effort made in any quarter to arrest the shameless libellers in their infamous career, and bring them to punishment. Is this honest 7 Is this justice? Bat not only is there this gross unfairness and inequality in the ad- ministration of the laws in this respect, but the same system prevails in other matters. A poor creature, sometimes in a moment of frenzy, steals few articles of food or clothing ; he or she is imme diately hunted up—arrested, indicted, tried, sen- tenced, and sent to prison for the longest period, or nearly so, that the law allows. Then, again, look at another quarter of the city, and see the state of morals, the conduct of leading men in point of in- tegrity, and the measure of justice they have dealt outto them. Why, within a space of not more than two years, we have had failures of banks, trust companies, defaleations of bank and insurance officers, and bursting of other institutions, by which the public have been plundered of nearly $15,000,- 000. And this, be itremembered, was property be- longing to widows, orphans, aud respectable but de- cayed members of society. The awful defaleations and other proceed- ings of many of those persons called directors, managers, secretaries, &c. of several of these institutions, have caused more real distress in this community, and more demoralization than all other offences perpetrated in the same period, put together. Yet, where is the grand jury who will indict these offenders? Where is the court that will charge a grand jury todo so? Or where is the press that will call out for this to be done? And, yet, unless it is done, our courts of justice will become a mockery, and a by-word, the scorn and reproach of the city. Wuia Nominations—In the Third District, either King, Phenix or Clark will receive the no- mination, and be elected. In the Fifth, composed of the 8th, 9th and 14th wards, W. W. Todd, salt mer- chant, is considered the strongest man. In the 4th, composed of the 6th, 7th, 10th and 13th wards, the whigs do not intend tonominate, but will unite on M. M. Quackenboss. In the sixth district, composed of the upper warda, Robert Sinith, stone cutter, late Alderman of the 5th ward, and Hamilton Fish, can- didate for Mayor some years since, are the promi- nent candidates. For Senator—Daniel Lord is said to stand the best chance, and if nominated, he will run Mr. Lott a close heat. Should McKeon run a stump in the fifth and the whigs not nominate in the 4th and centre upon Quackenboss, the probability is that the democrats will not be able to elect more than one candidate from the city, and that will be forthe 11th, 12th, 15th, 16th and 17th wards. Should there be a division in that district among the democrats and the friends of ‘Wood and Moore, they will be defeated in every district. Tae Watt staeer Disrricr —James Gore King, the great broker, it is said, will receive the whig nomiaation for Congress in this district. He will be supported by the Board of Brokers, Bank of Com- merce, Manhattan Bank, and such assets as are left of the agency of the American Trast Company— opposed by Boorman & Johnston, the assets of the North American Trust Company, and all the lame ducks and repudiators. We go for James—he is very much of a gentleman—lives ina chateau at Ho- boken, sleeps just enough in town to qualify hi — and will be the first broker that ever got to Congress, where he is mueh wanted to teach them to doa large business on a small capital. All other eandi- dates will please march. Crry Prorexry—Porvration—Taxes— Some- thing is rotton in the state of Denmark.” Look at our money article, and you will learn the astound- ing fact that the value of property, real and persoa- al, has decreased, since 1831, about 23 per cent., while the taxes have increased, in the same period, 40 per cent., and population _per cent. The decrease in the value of property may be ac- counted for inthe curtailment of the paper circ tion—the general reduction of prices—the revulsion of the bankse—the raseality of fnanciers—and the ignorance of bankers—but why should the taxes increase’ Daring this period the city government has been in the hands of the politicians of both parties alternately, and although they abuse each other just previous to an election, they pursue the same policy inregard to the public burdens. How can such financial phenomena be explained ? From Care Town.—We have received the South American Commercial Advertser, published at Cave Town, to the 28d of July. It contains no other news than what we have already seen in the English ; \- s~namely thet the Dutch Boers had been held 9 check by the British forces | destructive affairs probably of the whole campaign, y tt LyDICTMENTS. morg other in- dictments found by the Grand Jury of Westchester County, we have already noticed that of Dr. Hush S. Caldwell, an eminent surgeon and physician of thiscity. Aod the question hussince been frequent- ly asked, “Who isthis Dr. Caldwell, and where is | ne from?” ; Upon inquiry we find that Dr. Caldwell has not been many years a resident of New York. He is a very remarkable man in many respects, and a man | of great talents. Heserved as an officer in the Brit | ish army for many years, was a long time in that | service in India, and subsequently officiated in his medical capacity with Wellington’s army through the Peninsular war, until the close of that long and bloody war at the seige of Bayonne. He was also at the storming of St. Sebastian, one of the most and in which there were more lives sacrificed, aud men wounded, in proporiien to the numbers em- ployed, than in any other action during that war. Asa necessary consequence, Dr. Caldwell had most excellent opportunities tor abundant practice and experience in every department of his profession, and has undoubtedly seen more medical and sur- gical service than any other person in the city. Dr. Caldwell is also, we learn, a man of great ec- centricity and independence of character; like Aber- nethy, Astley Cooper, Joha Hunter, Lawrence, and the great lights of the profession, he loves so see and study the physical powers of the human frame as they are developed under every variety of circum- stances. This accounts for his being prescnt at the fight at Hastings; but it is ridiculous to say that he was there as the physician of M’Coy. He wasthere City Intelligenc e, @ Tae Foortains.—The large basin recently im the Park, although merely the foundation of a magui- ficent structure to be completed at a future day, yet pre sents great attraction, not only from its novelty te our water sparing citizens, but from the beauty and magni- ficence of the fountain itself, that cannot be surpassed in this country. The basin is 100 feet in diameter, and the whole fountain is composed ef one main centre jet, and twenty-four subérdinates, all of which can be charged, so as to present different views end forms. The cast iron plates already prepared for the centre jet present three changes—the first a close column fifty feet in height, called “ The Maid ofthe Mist,” The second, with a cen- tre and sides, called “ The Croton Plume,” and the third, in an expanded shape, termed “ The Fan.” The outside, or subordinate jets, can be made to throw a stream from fifteen to tweaty feet, in any direction desired. They are all regulated by the iron bar above the watrr in the basin, so as to present a change of appearance, merely by en- larging or narrowing the apertures by valves placed be- neath The fountain in Union Place, although of smaller size, presents a most beautiful effect when in operation. Our citizens, as wellas the numerous strangers wiio visit the city on Friday, will then have an opportunity to wit- ness them both in 1ull display. Tur Tuettivo Kace between the celebrated horses Ripton and Confidence, came off over the Centreville course yesterday. The stakes wero $1500 op Ripton, to $1000 on Confidence, and the former won the money in two straight well contested heats of two miles euch, in bm. 16, and 6m.19. The wind blew a perfect gale, and the tim» under the circumstances, was as good as 5m. 10, Ripton was driven by Woodruff, who weighed 169 pounds, su'key 80; and Confidence by Wheeler, weighing 143, sulkey the same as Ripton’s. Inthe last race, Betsey Ba- ker won the purse in three straight heats of one mile, beating John Ander-on. Time, 2 47—2 47—2 43. merely asa spectator, and knew nothing about the parties. He was about ty interfere to stop the fight, but was prevented by the cursing, swearing, and threats of the brutal wretches who acted as seconds onthat shocking occasion, and the shouts of the mob around. That aman of hisstanding in society and ability should be indicted, under the cireum- stances, is most preposterous, for all who know the humane and gentlemanly disposition of Dr. Cald- well, know well that he would be the last man on earth to encourage anything of the kind, and the first to endeavor to prevent it. This distinguished surgeon is just beginning to be appreciated in this city, and his services are conse- quently in continual requisition. His surgical talents and scientific attainmentsare very similar to those of the late Dr. Bush. Some short time since he was called in to perform a difficult operation on a very lovely young married lady in this city. She had a tremendous tumor on her neck, which was very deep seated. The operation was so critical, that many surgeons refused to undertake it. At last Dr. Caldwell was sent for, and asked to cut out the tumor. ‘Iwill cut it out, if the lady will sit per- fectly still,” said he. ‘I will not stir,” she replied “And save her life ?” asked the husband. ‘“ She shall be able to walk Broadway in a week,” was the answer. Without any more ceremony, the Doctor commenced. He dissected away the tumor, laid bare the carotid artery, and the internal and exter- naljugular vein, and in a few minutes the tumor was removed, and the wound closed with straps ; and in six days the lady was walking Broadway in good health. When it was over, the grateful hus- band exclaimed ‘‘ God bless you, Doctor, you have saved my wife.” ‘“ Thank your wife, sir,” said he, “‘for her own firmness saved her life ; had she moved, she might have died under my hands.” We have heard of dozens of similar cases of his skill and science, which we would give if we had room ; for that diffidence and modesty, inseparable from genius, would prevent his ever making them known. However, we should not be surprised if this indictment were the means of bringing him be- fore the world in his real character, as one of the first surgeons of the day ; and as such will be a sort of gratuitous advertisement of his merits. Far anp Lean —The grand jury have indicted the “* Aurora,” for calling a grand jurora “swab,” or “snob.” The “ Courier and Enquirer” calls the Chief Magistrate of the republic, a “traitor,” “a wretch,” “a scoundrel,” &c., just as often as they please, with perfect impunity. What is a grand ju. ry? What is a libel? What is an indictment? What is justice? What is any thing? A Levee.—Mrs. Parlin, the beautiful Queen of Rhode Island,” held a Jevee yesterday at Jones’s Hotel, which far outshone any levee held at Holy- rood, Dalkeith Palace, Scone, or even St. James's or Windsor Castle. She gave audience to a large number of the fnends of free suffrage; none of them were lords or nobles, but all of them were sove- reigns in their own right. Some of their robes were not of the first quality, but still all sovereigns. ATwWIt, the fashionable music publisher, has just got out Morris’ famous Croton-water Ode, set to music, with a vignette exhibiting the Park Foun- tain, and the grand procession. We don’t know which is best—the poetry, the music, the engraving, or the Croton water. Try all. Once, Twicr.—Governor Carlin of Illinois, has ofiered areward of $300 for Joe Smith. We hereby ofler areward of $350 for the prophet. We'll see who will get him first. Twappix.—The quarrel among the Mayor, Ald. Underwood, Tayler, Graham and others. Why don’t you fight on something worth six shillings and eight pence at least ? Mustcat..—Antognini had a very good concert.— His singing was much applauded, Rapetti and his violin were brilliant. Apropos—there is a large stock of musical talent in town, but they are be- ginning to quarrel again. A Sian.—Within the last few weeks the locofocos have carried Indiana, Sllinois, Louisiana, Missouri, North Garolina, Georgia, Maryland and Pennsylva- nia. They will probably carry New Jersey and Oho. Qg- The Phenix Bank financiers of Boston have been arrested, and will probably be indicted. When will New York play trumps ? Cuaritaste.—The proceeds of Saturday evening at Niblo’s Garden are to be appropriated to the French Benevolent Society. Good. fg- J. Horsixy Pataer was rode down the Long Island Railroad the other day, hulf way to the Greenport—but neither drives, rides, nor politeness will pay up the balances due him by the Wall street gentlemen, of $600,000. Be honest as well as polite. Exection mx Pexnsyivania.—The whigs have carried the city of Philadelphia by a 1000 majority. The county, however, has been carried by the democrats. In Wilmington city, the whole demoeratio tieket is elected. Sreamer Acap1a, from Boston for Liverpool, ar- rived at Halifax on the 3d, and sailed the same af- ternoon, with 18 additional passengers. Nosto’s.—Antoine had a brilliant saloon last even- ing—every thing went off with great spirit—the laughter was incessant. Gabriel's personation of Polechinelle astonished the auditors—he was re- peatedly cheered during his ardous task—it is a wonderful muscular exertion. ‘‘ The Nigh Owl,” which, like old wine, seerns to increase in value and attraction as it ages, is repeated to night, with the {talian Brigands, and Mons. Carlo a1d M’lle Caro- lina, in a favorite vaudeville. Cuatnam Turatre.—The beautiful and interest- ing drama of Jack Sheppard, a piece which never fails to draw a full house, is to be brought out again to-night, in which Mrs. Therne enacts her favorite part of Jack Sheppard, and Mr. Lennox that of Jon athan Wilde. A new melo drama, entitled the Black Tower of El Haliff, will be added, together with the highly colored extravaganza of a Darkey in Livery, in which John Smith may be “seen to | advantage,”” jos ae \ Incuxase of Countenreit Mowsy.—Within the past few months our city has been flooded with various “ boo- dles” of counterfeit notes put in circulation by old and young Koneyackers, and George Somes, Otis Allen, and others are now serving their apprenticeship in State pri- son, for their participation in thege deeds. The convic- tion of these men has awakened public attention to the fact that for years past many persons in this city who have been engaged in groceries and retail stores have been in the daily practice of passing off counterfeit money whenever an opportunity offered. Their standing and business would almost slways form a shield against sus- picion, and if a note was returned, the transaction was set down as a mistake, and good money given in its place. A number ofcases have recently been tried in the General Sessions, where the offenders have escaped the meshes of the law through some technical quibble, or from their previous goed character. ‘A day or two since, a man named Paul Drayton, who resides at Williamabugh, L. I., and who has recently been engaged at 121 Hester street, entered the grocery store of James Phelan, 541 Grand street for the purpose of purcha- sing a small lot of groceries, which amounted to two shil- lings and sevenpence, and for the payment of which he handed Phelan a $5 billof the Utica Bank of this State.— Phelan gave him five shillings and fivepence change, and threw the note into the money drawer. He then left the store, went up stairs, and returned with another $5 note in bis hand. He thenasked Drayton if he had a dollar in change, when Drayton took fifty cents from his own pocket, and fifty of the change that Phelan had thrown upon the counter, and handed it to him. Phelan then gave him the $5 note that he hed brought down stairs, which was of the Manufacturers Bank of Providence, and Drayton taking the one shilling and five pence, which was his even change, left the store. In attempting to pass the note that Phelan had thus given him, he ascertained that it was acounterfeit, and utterly worthless. examining the note it was found that the “Phelan” had been written upon the back, had been previously passed upon some person ed. If any person has received such a note from him be- fore, or any note of like description, they will aid the cause of honesty, by giving immediate notice af the Lower Police office to one of the magistrates. Phelan was arrested about dusk yesterday, by officer Joseph, and admitted to bailin the sum of $1000. An ail- ditional examination will be made of the case this after- noon at the Lower Police office; and those having auy knowledge of the transaction, are requested to be present. Phelan is a man of considerable property, and has been carrying on an extensive retail grocery business. Avotner Countexreit Case.—Two men named John Clark and Daniel L. Thorp, the latter of whom has taken the benefit of the bankrupt law, were arrested yesterday ona charge of passing a counterfeit $5 note of the Hari- ford Bank. They are both residents of East Broadway, and have heretojore been considered respectable. The ‘ticulars, as we obtained them from the affidavits, are az follows :—Thorp received the note from Mrs. Lewis, of Church street, who gave itto him asa counterfeit. Clark and himself then went to the house of Kate Johnson, ia Read street, and there mea pe to pass it for a bottle of champaign. She discovered that the note was bad, and refused to take it, They drank the wine without paying for it, and then went to Eliza Davenport's, in Franklin street, and there called for another bottle, which was fur- nished by Emma Shepherd, who gave them §3 in change jorthe pote. The bili having n discovered to be a counterfeit, and every effort made to induce them to re- turn good money without effect, a p esecution was enter- ed, and they were both held to bail in the sum of $500 each to answer the offence at the Sessions. Hicuway Rossexy axp Atremetep Munpen.—Yester- day aiternoon as acolored man named Frank White, who has recently been in the employ of Colonel Jones of the Second Ward Hotel, wes pasting through Howard's Woods, near Brooklyn, he was stopped by a man who de- manded his money or his life. The colored man told him that he had no money, when the robber fired a pistol at him, the shot taking effect in his abdomen, and will pro- bably cause his death. The robber a to be an Irishman, and was dressed in a blue cloth coa:, light pants, cap without @ rim, and had a belt around his body. He immediately escaped and has not been arrested. Joux Aueax Deivereo:Ur.—Mr. Peter Smith, who entered security for the appearance of John Ahern, the recent Mayor’s Clerk, who stands charged with large de- falcation or robbery of the City Treasury, surrendered him last evening, and at the closing of tne police ottice, he was still in custody of an otticer, not having been able to obtain security. Sto.e a Wartcn.—On the 5th instant, Mr. George Sheriff, of 6th avenue, corner of 1th street, lost a silver watch from his premises, supposed to have been stolen, and notice being given to Mr. Joseph Simpson, of 25 Ch tham street, he stoy aman named Amaziah Black. burn, who had offered to pawn it, and placed him in the Tombs for trial. ‘Wno’s aot tHe wroxa Vauise—The gentleman who took a valise trunk in mistake for his own, from the steam. boat Nimrod from Bridgeport, yesterday ‘afternoon, is re- spectfully requested to return it .o Howard’s Hotel, where he will find his own. Artsmrtzp Rosneay.—-Jacob Shipman, bank and broker’s express runner, who passes daily between this city and Philadelphia, was knocked down in his own house in Philadelphia on Tuesday night by robbers, who escaped, however without carrying offany booty. Sg Convention of the Friends of Home Industry to-day. See adyertisement. 0G MR. BARNUM, OF THE AMERICAN MU- seum, this week presents the most extensive array of at- tractions ever put forth there. Dr. Valentine, with his inimitable drolleries, is a host of himself; then comes Nellis, born without arms; Signor Vivaldi’s mechanical figures, Miss Hood, Celeste, the Gipsey Girl, &e. The most magnificent preparations are making at that museum for celebrating next Friday. The location is decidedly the best in the city fer viewing the procession, and with about one hundred windows and the new iron balconies which the manoger is erecting in front of the building, an army of ‘visiters can be accommodated there. Barnum has prepared and will bring out a novelty on that occasion which will be worthy the great celebration, aad astonish the wholecity. Se look out for it. OG> The Manager of the New York Museum is deter- mined not to be surpassed by any one i his endeavors to afford the public amusemeat on the Croton Celebration day. The vigor and energy he hes already displayed in catering for the community, augurs well for the future.— Thus far he has presented as good if not better entertain- meats for one shilling than was before obtained for two.— The splendid Gas Star he hes erected is pretty good proof ofhis ability to accomplish—is conclusive evidence of his desire to please, and sufficient testimony of his indiffer- ence to expense, three qualifications requisite in a mana- ger. The Museum is admirably adapte} to view the pro- cession in the Pask. A more eligible piace could not be procured inthe city. There will be repeated performan- cesin the Lecture Room during the day. As for batloon ascensions, displays ol flags, and bands of music, there wil! benoendto them.

The reasons thus far laid down for repudiation are first, that the parties are rich end are above public opinion, at least in their own conccits. Second, that al though the constitution of the United States declares “that no State shall enact laws impairing the virtue of private contracts,” yet the State of New York excepts con- tracts made with brokers,and therefore it is right to break such contract. The State law also excepts contracts made for money at its market value, when that happens to be above an assumed logal value. Therefore it is right to de- fraud a man by the legel plea of usury. Theseare all the reasons yet given by the repudiators for refusing to pay losses where they hoped to win. The board of brokers will adjourn over Friday, the day of celebration.
