VEW YORK HERALD New York, Monday, October 24, 1842, To Advertisers, Mr.E. B. Turrix, who has been, for afew weeks past, Golivcting advertisements for this paper, is no longer au- therised to transact any such business for this office. Nor is any person whatever, in the city, allowed to do so. ll kinds, ‘are requested to call at the Henitn, northwest corner of Fulton and Nas and leave their advertise been compelled to abolish entirely the ersons to Collect advertisements, from the urrence of misunderstandings, caused by the into by such persons without any au- ion from us. atere or san The circulation of the -Herald is #0 comprehensive, a that of any other paper in the country, of real business upon our columns is so are under the necessity of adopting this rder to dofull and ample jastice toj those pa- ivertise with us, and have patronised us, in of all the malignant opposition raised in this city, or extended to foreign lands. being greater th Tur Cuwwron Revotutionary Parers.—We give to-day another batch of these interesting papers. We particularly call attention to the remarkable ef Governor George Clinton to General Put- Thereb: ngs a tale, Dickens's First Words on America, The “First Words” of Charles Dickens on Amer- ica, being a most extraordinary and savage Review of * American Newspaper Literature,” is now pub- lished in an “ Exrra Weexiy Herat,” and is for sale at this oflice—price sixpence. This Review is the first gun in the leng war that has at last broken out between the literature of America and that of Europe, for the empire ovgr the human iind in both hemispheres. As an of taste, judgment, accuracy, or style, it of the most savage and barbarous tirades that ever disgraced the literature of any country. The only accurate statement it contains is the ad- mission that the New York Herald hasa circulation of thirty thousand copies—that its readers number hundred over one thousand—-that it penetrates every nook and corner of the United States—that itisread from the President of the United States n tothe simplest mechanic—-and that, as in vondon, people ask for the “ Times” as the leading sk for the “Herald.” ure the only facts—all the rest is falsehood, !, so in New York, they The: fury, misrepresentation, misquotation, violence, vulgarity, heartlessness, coarseness, and all that low tact which distinguishes the literary works of Dickens already before the public. species We consider this singularreview asa step in the grea! revolution in literature, politics, government, liberty and right, which the press of this country have begun, and which is destined to overturn all the existing istitutions of Europe at no distant day, and to create in their stead republican govern- ment, republican literature, and republican philoso- phy. At our leisure we shall review the reviewer, and make Dickens drink to the very dregs the very cup he} has mixed for others to take. Tue Exxcrion.—We are within ten days of the election in this State—and a very important election The candidates for Governor are selected—and the various other can- didates will also be chosen in the course of the itis, in many points of view. week ‘This election will have a very important influence Curiovs Liner Cases.—There is a libel case to be tried against James W. Webb, of the ‘Courier and Enquirer,” in November next, in Montgomery county. The libel is founded on the publication of a criticism against the works of J. Fennimore Cooper, in which some wrong sided compliments are paid to the author’s motives in writing and pub- lishing certain books. There is also a libel to be tried against James G Bennett, of the New York Herald, in Pen Yan, Yates County, sometime in November. ‘This libel con- sists of a statement made against a religious society, calling it abolition, we believe—also some general comments on the commercial system of Pen Yan— in common with that of other towns—and condemn- ing its mode of doing business—or of inducing the farmers to buy goods. No individuals were men- tioned or alluded to—it was merely a general com- mentary ona system, which has ruined many banks and towns in Western New York and other parts of the country, for the last ten years. ‘To bring it with+ in the pale of the libel law, all the store-keepers of Yates county, made separate affidavits that it meant them. In every particular the thing resembles the story told of Dr. Johnson, who in describing the characters of a curious club in the “ Rambler,” was threatened with a libel suit, by a set of men down in Yorkshire, that he had never heard of before. ‘The first case—that of Webb’s—involves the very curious point of literary criticism—how far a critic can examine or censure a work, in connection with the author’s motives and personal history. The other case, that of Bennett, involves the liberty of discussion on commercial topics—how far a public journalist can go in examining a bank system—or comr ial system—or credit system—in any par- ticular town or country, without knowing or al- Fifteen: mn Fair of the American In stitute At Niblo’s Garden—1842, Trirp Werk. This morning commences the third week of the Fair.” By the advertisement im another column, it will be seen that it continues until Wedneday even- ing, when the closing address will be delivered. DiseLay or Saws.—The display of saws, as you ascend to the gallery from the saloon, is truly mag- nificent. ‘The large circular one in the centre is 50 inches in diameter, and is believed to be the largest single plate ever made. While on this subject, we would remark, that last spring a special committee made a report on the subject of this manufacture, from which we quote :— “ Reront—The special committee of the Ameriean In- stitute, to whom was referred the examination of Mr. Ri- chard M. Hoe’s machines for grinding saws, report, that they visited the extensive manufactory of R. Hoe & Co. at the'corner of Broome and Sheriff’ streets, and there wit- nessed the machines in question in operation. ‘There are two of these: one for grinding long saws, the other for grinding circular saws. Lil it agar sat ‘The advantages to be obtained from the use of these ma- chines are highly important, as will manifestly appear to those who are accustomed to use saws of the description which they are calculated to grind. Their merit consists in the power which they place at the disposal of the workman e1 ed in the manufacture ws to make them perfectly true and regular in thick- ness,or thick or thin at any particular part they please, thus preparing the catting edge of long saws to operate with less set, and strengthening circular saws by gradu- ally increasing them in thickness, from their cutting edge to their centre. The truth and uniformity of their surface makes in all cases less set in the saw teeth necessary, and on this ac- count it will take less power to drive the raws made by. these machines than is required for the use of the ordina- ry hammered an ground saws ; besides, they will not re. quire so frequent sharpening—be less’ able to become heated, and by cutting relatively a much narrower curt, produce a saving in timber which, in some varieties, is an object of considerable importance. Your committee are of unanimous opinion, that in the apparatus invented by Mr. Richard M. Hoe, as above de- scribed, he has displayed great ingenuity and tact in the adaptation of machinery to the production of results in luding to individuals. If the discussion of literary or commercial subjects are prohibited, what are we to think of the recent Review of ‘American Newspaper Literature,” written by Dickens, in which the principal writers of the press are set down as the greatest villains in existence—charged with every crime—and treated as perfect cut throats. {g-Joun Jones, of the ““Madisonian,” now and then makes his appearance in very funny habiliments. During the last week, his paper,has had leaders on the policy of the President, very well and some- what powerfully written-—containing, some ve- ‘ ty curious doctrines—but generally right, as we understand the constitution. In his last sheet he be- gins to jest on Mr. Webster, Secretary of State, in such a way as does not become an official organ to speak, unless the Secretary 18 to be turned out, In the same sheet, he pours out a flood of high- sounding compliments on Mike Walsh—-considers him “no ordinary man,” “a genius,” &c. &c. But Mr. Webster is compared to some oor blockhead in Boston, called Weeks, and John very curiously re- peats the question, ‘* Which is right? Weeks or Webster?”—“ which is right? Weeks or Webster?” All this is very droll and means something. We want to have some light. We want to know the position of Mr. Webster—the position of the “Guard” —the position of Weeks—-the position of Mike Walsh—the position of John Jones. Really every thing seems to be getting into confusion in these latter days. Tue Srous.—The foliowing are among the fat offices that will fall to the lot of the Locofocos of this city, in case Bouck should be elected Go- vernor :— on the policy of the State and nation—as'well as the prospects of eminent statesmen now before the country for the next Presidency. In the recent elections, Mr. Clay has been most unfortugate—most unlucky—and although there are certain points of his policy that cannot be approved, yet his bad luck makes our heart bleed—and we are nost persuaded to come out in his favor, purely ont of sympathy for his forlorn condition. Wage y give our aid to the weak—and who is weaker than poor Harry Clay? We usually pity the dis- tressed—and who is more distressed than Harry of the West? In the recent elections, he has lost everything but Kentucky—for as to New Jersey, it will turn and turn, like Jem Crow, to be on the —and Vermont is only one poor coon sitting on a tree in the Green Mountains, and trying to crack a nut out of very desperation. No man was ever in a more lamentable situation than Henry Clay. He has a hot and hasty temper—and those about him have been hotter and hastier. They have almost reined a capital fellow by their violence, and savage and silly opposition to Captain Tyler, who has shown more stuff than they ever dreamt of. Yet there is some hope tor Mr. Clay. There is yet a drop in the ocean. Ifthe whigs can maintain their position in this State by electing Mr. Bradish, Mr. Glay may recover his lost ground, provided he con- ducts his affairs better hereafter, and selects wiser advisers for the next two years. Out of pure charity —out of an honest-felt compassion—we are very much disposed to support Mr. Bradish, merely to help Clay a little in his hour of trouble—merely to set him on his legs and try his luck ag The Jocofeces will probably carry the Legislature—but if it is not too late, generous men might be prevailed upon to turn out and elect Mr. Bradish, simply to prevent Mr. Clay trom coming to some untimely end. Mr. Bradish himself is a very worthy, excel- lent man—so is Mr. Bouck—but still the best reason for electing Mr. Bradish, would be the reliet it would give to Mr. Clay—the encouragement to his friends—and the hope that he could yet maintain himself as a candidate for the Presidency. The stion of Mr. Bradish would also demonstrate the essity of the locofocos dropping Mr. Van Buren— inthis way two birds might be killed with one strong si » things will be matter of reflection during We have compassion tor Mr. Clay, if it would not interfere with the most sound system of rblic poliey. The coon ought not to be killed out- night, notwithstanding the preparations of the bar- barians of Kinderhook to go a hunting. We ought to give him another chance for his life. Coonskins are too cheap the week Joun C. Catuoun.—We understand that this emi- neot statesman intends to retire at an early day from the United States Senate—probably to become a candidate for the next presidency, whether he is by the Convention or not. His residence is in Pendleton, 8. C., where he lives on his plan- tation, studying cotton and currency—polities and society, with the acute eye of a metaphysician. He will not visit New York, or the North, till next summer—in order to prevent his motive from being stispected. He will then come as far as this city— go to New Haven, where he was educated—and probably take the fashionable tour through New York, New England and Canada. Perhaps Calhoun, Clay and Van Buren may all meet next summer at Saratoga—who knows? N. B.—James Hamilton of S.C., jast returned from England, is in this city, and is favorable to Mr. Calhoun’s election to the presidency. A mighty movement is i1 progress. nominated Berr.—Mr. Webster spent last Tuesday admiring the oxen and “ virgin heifers” at the Franklin Cattle Show, New Hampshire. He prefers chow- der, however, to beef. The latter is Mr. Clay’s pre- ference. Grose Horet.—The Express has been retailing some ridiculous gossip about robberies said to have been committed at the Globe Hotel form We are in- d that there is no foundation whatever for h statements. The Globe Hotel is kept in first rate style by Blancard—and the greatest care is taken to prevent any robberies whatever within the walls of the building. Health officer at the Quarantine, worth $10,000 who has the appointment of resident physician, worth 2,000 and health commissioner, worth 2,000 Inspector of Tobacco, worth 8,000 Do Pot and Pearl Ashes, 10,000 Do Flour and meal, ~ 8,000 Do Measurer-General of Grain, 1,500 Do of Staves, 1,600 Do Quercitron Bark, 500 Do General ot Domestic Distilled Spirits, 2,000 Do Green Hides and Skins, 2,000 Do Flaxseed, 500 Weigher General of Merchandize, 1,500 Six Inspectors of Beef and Pork, each 2,000 Seven o!

Also, notaries, commissioners of deeds, private secretary, &c. &e, the two former of which are made ad infinitum, without end, without num- ber, and are worth from $200 to $2000. The nu- merous deputies dependent on the offices of Inspec- tor of Flour, &c. of this city, will swell the patron- age in this city alone to over $100,000. In filling these fat offices, the members of Assem- bly will have the principal influence. Hence the contest and effort among the various cliques to pro- cure nominations of men in particular interests. The persons nominated at Tammany Hall—thirteen in number—have already, we understand, tormed a clique, for the purpose of giving a direction to this patronage. This project or plan is, however, only the usual way in which offices of profit are dealt out. The candidates will be selected by the As- semb-ymen, before they go to Albany, and a scene of amusing strife has already begun, that would fur- nish philosophical examples sufficient to enable another Aristotle to write another book; or Plato, anew edition of his “ republic.” Mr. J. Horstey Patmer.—This great English fi- nancier, former Governor of the Bank of England, and present holder and owner of one-third of the banks in the United States, has nearly closed his efforts in ths country, and will shortly return home. Like a sensible knight, Mr. P. has taken it easy since he has been among us, and finding he couldn’t raise the wind out of his “scrip,” most of which wasn’t worth the paper it was printed on, he he has quietly ‘* swapped” a good part of it off for houses and lots, or any thing else he could get, keep- ing his jolly, good-natured, laughing, plump-face, and his temper in the bargain; for what a fool a man isto lose them and his cash too, He has visited Rockaway, New Brighton, Saratoga, Balls- ton, and the neighboring cities, and is now rusticat- ing at the beautiful country seat of Colonel James B. Murray, on Greenfield Hill, Connecticut, where he will, doubtless, close up his North American trips—not trusts—and sail for ‘* Merrie England” in the course of a week or two. We wish he would write a book of his travels, and tell us what he thinks of Yankee land—her go- ahead railroads, banks, steamboats, aqueducts, and other “sich like” commodities. Give us your Jour- nal, Sir John, and we'll print it for nothing, and speak for a dozen copies. We'll beat Dickens all hollow. A Marcuiongss Cominc.— We have heard that the Marchioness of Wellesley will return to Balti- more in a few months. It will be recollected that our last accounts from England, breught the intelligence of the death of the Marquis of Wellesley, the elder brother of the Duke of Wellington. The Marchioness is a lady of Baltimore, first Miss Caton, then Mrs. Patterson, the grand daughter of Caroll of Car- rollton, one of the signers of the Declaration of In- dependence. Mrs. Patterson went to Europe in the bloom of youth and beauty, and soon after became the wife of the Marquis of Wellesley. Her re-appearance in Baltimore will create a sen- sation. She left a simple woman, without title—she returns a Marchioness of the British Peerage. Tue Anottrionists Foruey.—The Judges of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts have decided that in the’case of Lattemar, the fugitive slave, they had no jurisdiction, because he was arrested by his master fora larceny committed in another State. Judge Shaw also said, that, wich the evidence be- fore him, he should be obliged to order the slave to ‘Be sent back as a fugitive, if such action were ap- plied for, and not interdicted bythe previous war- rant for larceny. the manufacture of saws whieh may with propriety be de- nominated the ne plus ultra of the art. [Signed] JAMES HAMILTON, KDWARD CLARK, THOS. B. STILLMAN, JAMES WILSON, JOSEPH CURTIS, New York, April, 1842.” ‘These saws are all made of Sanderson, Brothers & Co.’s celebrated cast steel. We have enquired, and find these erlebrated saws can be had at the of- fice of the concern, Nos 29 and 31 Gold street, or - the principal hardware stores in the United States. Fisx’s Novety Cook Srovg.—As this is just the season for purchasing stoves, we specially invite the attention of those about purchasing to Fisk’s patent Novelty Cook Stove, now exhibiting at the Fair, in the extremity of the main walk- It is very highly recommended, and we have seen a great many peo- ple examining and praising it- This establishment 1s at 209 Water street.

Perroratep Zinc—No. 1145—A specimen by A. Jones, 192 Broadway. Mepicat InTeLticence.—The prospects of the old College of Physicians and Surgeons are highly promising. A great number of students have al- ready entered their names. At the clinique of the Stuyvesant Institute School last Saturday, just one patient appeared, and his case was of little importance, being an illustration of the bad effects of an injudicious use of mercury. At the Crosby street clinique the average attendance of patients is thirty each day. The “ College of Medgcine and Pharmacy,” is succeeding remarkably well. The fact is, an asso- ciation of regular physicians is the only institution that can successfully wage war against quackery. Decision 1n Bankrurtrcy.—Judge Engle, of Mis- souri, has decided that the property acquired by a Bankrupt, after filing his petition for the benefit of the law, is exempt from seizure on execution for debts contracted prior to filing his petition as men- tioned in his schedule. The decision was given on a motion for an injunction to stay an execution levi- ed upon 'the effects of a bankrupt, after he had petitioned for a discharge under the law of Con- gress. Tue next U.S. Srvare.—If the locofocos have @ majority in the next New York and Indiana legis- latures there will be a tie in the next U. S. Senate, leaving Tennessee out of the calculation, and sup- posing that Willie P. Mangum will neither resign or be instructed. A New Movement —It has become very much the fashion recently for actors in this country, who cannot reach ,ihe topmast round of the ladder of their profession, to leave the stage, and give lectures on elocution. Murdoch has done this ; Barton, of New Orleans, is about to do the same; and about a score of “small fry” are following the same system. Emiertion—Harp Wrvter.—Over 5,000,000 of squirrels crossed the Niagara River, near Buffalo, last week, and immediately pushed off south to spend the winter. When the Indians see such a movement among the squirrels, they put their finger on their nose, and say, “Look out for blankets!” Any thing of the coons ? Burnina or a Steamsurr.—The British steam- ship North America, lying at Boston, came near be- ing wholly burnt up last Friday night. All her in- terior has been destroyed and most of her upper deck. She wasto have left the next day for Hali- fax and the intermediate ports. Insurance compa- nies in Wall street have $15,000 risked on her. Canavan Seat or Government.—It will not be long before the seat of Government is removed from Kingston. There is a perfect fever raging relative toit. It will be about the same time Sir Charles Bagot returns home. Tue Ruope Istanp Queen.—The beautiful Queen of Rhode Island, Mrs. Parlan, has arrived in this city and put up at the City Hotel. She will shortly deliver a lecture at Tammany Hall on the position and prospects of Rhode Island Og- Henriques, 51 William street, has just recei- ved 400,000 Principe segars, once belonging to the stock of Mr. Tucker in Boston, a perfect gourmand in the heavenly shrub. They are five years old— and fragrant as the breath of Paradise before Satan crawled in under the railing. Quick Passace.—The packet ship Virginian, Captain Allen, arrived yesterday in twenty-one days passage from Liverpool. &Tux Turr.—Miss Foote distanced Black Nose and Botzaris, atthe Oakland Race Course, Missouri, Oct. 7th.

Benton, when last heard from, was in the Ohio river. Masor Davezac.—The speech of this gentleman at Tammany Hall the other night, was a most ex- cellent one. Why is he left off the ticket ? Concerts.—Mr. Dempster and the Messrs. Rai- ners give two more delightful concerts in this city. One to-night at the Society Library. Loox ovr ror Him.—An insane man, indicted for a rape, broke out of the jail of Westmoreland county in this State, last week Mr. Wenster has reached Boston on his way to Washington. One more chowder at Marshfield. Ix aLow Srate.—The Ohio river, and the Ohio coons. Execrep.—Mr. Small for the third riding of York, Canada.

Monnor Enwanps’ Preranations ro Hana Hinsere.— Yesterday morning as Col. Jones, the keeper of the City Prison, was surveying the cells of various prisoners, he was induced to examine that occupied by Col. Edwards. On taking down the bed which has been turned up end- ways towards the wall, the strap that held it was found to have been cut and spliced together with a slip noose at the end, and a hangman’s knot prepared for use at short notice. From the appearance of the strap, with other preparations in his cell, there is no doubt he intended to commit suicide after receiving his sentence this day. He declares that he will never enter the walls of Sing Sing State Prison alive, and that if there are no other means of destruction of life, he will beat his brains out against the walls of his gloomy prison. Poor fellow! His cash is gone, and with it fled his friends—he is therefore now on ‘ the verge of desperation, and if the means come to his pos. session, no doubt he will save the State some service, by blowing his brains out. On the discovery of this preme- ditated attempt to take his life, every thing was removed from his cell that could possibly be used for that purpose, and his clothing searched to ascertain if he had any po onous substance about him. He will be sentenced this morning at the Court of Oyer and ‘Terminer. Coxtrstep Nomsxations.—The democratic delegates of the Sixth Congressional District, composing the 11th; 12th, 15th, 16th and 17th wards, meet to-night to seleet a candidate to be supported by the Possums, at the ensuing election. The delegation now stand :—Fernando Wood, 12—Eli Moore, 11—James J. Roosevelt, 2. In case an elec. tion is aot made to-night, the whole affair is to be referred back to the Possums themselves of the several wards com- posing the district, who are to vote directly for the man of their choice, at a day ballot, and the one securing a ma- Jority of votes in the whole district is to be declared the regularly nominated candidate of the party, The whigs have already nominated Hamilton Fish as their candidate Tue Furenar of George Chatillon,'Past Grand Treasur! er of the Order of Odd Fellows, was attended yesterday by upwards of five thousand Odd Fellows and several com, panies of military. The line extended over one mile in length, and contained a larger body of Odd Fellows than has ever before been seen in this city at a funeral. Their regalia attracted much attention and their numbers excited astonishment among the thousands who lined Broadway and Canal st, as she procession passed. Several excellent bands of music were dispersed through the line, the so- lemn notes of which rendered the whole scene imposing and interesting. Orrice.—The Coroner quest on the body of a native of New Jersey, aged about 41 years, who e night previous at 92 Vesey street, where he lodgings. The jury returned a verdict of death from effusion of the chest, caused by recent intempe- rate habits. It was first supposed to have heen a case of suicide, but ona careful post mortem examination = above was declared to be the immediate cause of his 3 Founp Daownen.—The body of a man dressed in sailor's clothes, was found at pier No. 1, North River yesterday.— It is supposed to be that of the ‘sailor who was drowned from the ship Cornelia, Capt. French, last week, while she was weighing anchor to sailfor Havre. He was in- terred by the Coroner. NEVER TURN YOUR BACK ON A STRANGER. morning, as Mr. James Syme, of 4014 Broadwi f ed in hig lace store, two men came in and desired to look at some goods which were shewn them and his at- tention particularly called to the end of the eounter by one of the two to price something that they wished to pur- chase. They left without making a bargain, with the usual words, “ will call again,” and he soon discovered that one ofthe gentlemen had been examining the con- tents of his money drawer, and removed $55 of the de- posites, while the othe: was engaging his attention at the other part of the store. Officer Joseph, who is highly creditable to his constituents of the 4th ward, succeeded in arresting one of the rogues yesterday, who calls him- self James Clark, loafer, of Albany. He ‘was locked up for examinati ‘Tue Mystery Souyep —The Herald of Friday morning contained the following paragraph :— “ Waren Returns.—In one of the watch returns at the Lower Police yesterday, we observed the following quiry George Parker for trying to seduce wife of Wm. White.’ What does it mean ? Yesterday while passing through the office, our optics were centered upon a neat pretty weman with a breast that would serve as a model for 0 Venus, who was enter- ing a charge against this rascal George Parker, to the fol- lowing effect : ‘That on Tuesday, ths 18th inst. he came into her room while she was in bed and handled her per- son in an indecent manner, and attempted to get into the bed with her, and was only prevented by deponent’s making a great noise, &e. &c. Mr. George Parker alias Parkerson, was committed on the charge of assault and battery with intent to commit a rape upon the person of Mrs. Mary E. White. Cass, or SmitH Reep.—In reporting the arrest of this alleged receiver of stolen goods yesterday, it was that a portion of them were found in possession of Edward Fox, tailor, of Broadway, who had purchased them of Reed. We have since learned that Mr. Fox, as is cus- tomary every day with merchant tailors, purchased a tin of Reed, he representing himself as a pedlar, and paid a reasonable price for it, but as soon e dis- covered that it was stolen goods he immediately ordered it to be sent to the Police Olfice. Noone who knows Mr. Fox would suspect him for an instant of giving the l countenance to the numerous gangs of receivers who in- fest our city. Disnonest Stewai called yesterday a named William Yesterday y, Was en- »—Officer Joseph, of the Fourth Ward, arrested a black fellow yesterday named Isaac Bradley, on the charge of stealing a German silver speak- mpet and a rervice of silver plate, belongi n Anthony of the ship Argo, of the Havre ling of packets. The trumpet, which was a present to Captain Anthony from Oscar Coles, was recovered by the officer, but the plate has not yet been found. Bradley was com: mitted. Superior Court, Before Chief Justice Jones. Ocr.22—Geo.B. Morewood § Co vs.Saml.L.Mitchell—Ac- tion to compel a person who recommended another to cred- it,to pay the amountsold,the notes having been protested. It was brought by plaintiffs against defendant for having recommended W. L. & 8. Mitchell,by which they obtained $1350 worth of property. A clerk of Mr. Morewood tes- Ufied that Mr. Mitchell, on behalf of his house, was de- sirous of obtaining credit for $1600 worth of hemp, the firm of W. L. &8. Mitchell at the same time bade, ee $800. Messrs.Morewood Boh pt ayer and Messrs. Woodhull & Minturn and Saml. L. Mitchell, the deten- dant, were given as such. The witness was’ sent to in- quire of them. He first saw Mr. Minturn, and told him hiserrand, who replied that he believed the house was ess he could not give particulars in relation to it— e would ci witness round to a man who knew all about them. He accompanied witness to the store of de- fendant, corner of Pine und Water streets. Defendant was angry at my going round to inquire as to what he led so good a house, He said the firm of W.L.& 8. Mitchell was perfectly rs. and he would as soon have their notes as those of George B. Morewood & Co.— Hemp, consequently was sold to the amount of $1350, but never paid for. The case was still on when the Court adjourned. Court of Common Pieas. shoeffer, Ingraham and Inglis. ww. — Louis De. Bouillon.—Motion to re- lease the defendant from imprisonment, he having been confined fifteen months in the penitentiary on account of disabili y to pay afine of $250. The Court in renderin, its decision, stated that ithad no general power to remit fines im) by the Court of Sessions, and can only re- mit when it appears that the prisoner has been unable ever since his conviction, to pay. The Court is not satis- fied that the petitioner has been so unable, and therefore has not power toact. The remedy is by seeking a pardon from the Executive. Motion denied. Laura M. Sherman vs. Eliphas Spencer.—Action to re- cover a penalty of $50 against an officer who made a dis- tress for rent, and who did net return the original warrant of distress and affidavit, and file the same in the county clerk’s office within ten days after the goods destrained weresold. Verdict for plaintiff confirmed with costs. Charles Brady vs. John M. Bixby.—On an action to reco- ver $249 instead of $165, the latter as averred, having been given erroneously by defendant, and taken by plain: tift on account of his sight being injured and not able to see the amount. Referees had decided that there was no ig due to plaintiff from the defendant, a settlement having taken place, and motion is made to ‘set the report aside. Motion denied. Daniel B. Taylor vs Samuel S. Wandell.—Action on a bill for whitewashing Croton water pipe. Ordered, that if plaintiff consents to receive $64 86, in balance, the ver- divt is confirmed with costs—otherwise new trial is order- ed, costs to abide the event.

Disastrous Fire—Desrrv AMERICAN, COMMERCIAL AND Royat Excna | vevs.—On Tuesday night last, a few minutes before 12 o’clock, a fire broke out in the extensive stables attached to the North American Hotel in thistown, which proved most calamitous in its consequences, levelling with the ground three of the best buildings of which our town could boast, aud consuming a large amount of valuable and moveable property. Besides the individual less, this calamity to our town will be severely felt by the district at large, and cause serious inconvenience to travellers to this section.—Kingston (U. C.) paper Mr. Brisrow.—It is a long time since we have given this industrious gentleman what is familiarly called “a puff,” and as he is really a very skilful and deserving mun in his profession, we are moved to say a few words in his favor, for the enlighten- ment of such as write abominably and have so much good sense as to wish to write better. Mr. Bristow can help them, and will, for a very moderate con- sideration. Also, he teaches stenography, er short- hand—a very good thing to be handy at now-a-days when there is so much reporting in progress, and good reporters can get such good salanes.

He appears in a number of new characters this week. The other attractions are of the first order, and embrace an unusual variety. The museum will as usual this week be crowded with the beauty and fashion of the city.

When the force and strength of the Tannin is worm out, leather becomes dead, hard, dry, brittle, cracked, covered with a crust, &e. This all know. To restore then, life, softness, moistness, strength, smoothness, and remove all crust, fly, or blister—restore the tannin. "This substance the leather never can receive the second time ; but the whole virtues of it are in this article, the Tannin—which penetrates the stiffest and hardest leather, if it has been twenty years in use ; and if it tears easil with the fingers, it imparts at once a strength that is ut- terly incredible until seen. It becomes like new leather, in all respects, with a delightful softness and polish, and es all leather completely and perfectly impervious to water—particularly boots, shoes, carriage tops, harness, hose, trunks, and in fact all things made of leather, giv ing a splendid polish, even higher than new leather hag, and at least doubling its wear and durability, in whatever nner the leather is used. ‘These are facts To convince of their truth, any man trying the article and not finding it so, shall have his money again. Re- member that this is serious and true. . Now, if these things are true, the discovery is of infinite value to the world. If itis not true, it isthe easiest thing in the world to prove it, without cost. Who then will re- fusea taial ? ‘Those who will may wear old shoes, groan with corus, ith old carriage-tops—have old harnest, and throw them away half used—look filthy themselves, and all about them—expend double what is necessary for articles of leather, to their hearts’ content, for what we care, if their prejudices are so strong, they will not try anew discovery. We have no favors to ask of them, they are the greaiest sufferers, and we beg for nobody’s custom or patronage. Now, gentlemen, please yourselves.

ZINCALI, OR THE GIPSIES OF SPAIN.—Very little is known of the habits of these descendents of the lag raelites, as they certainly are, if we can believe the pages of history, What little we hear of them serves but to sharpen ‘our anxiety for more information concerning their wild romantic way of life. Oftheir personal habits, those who have witnessed their actions, say they are par- ticularly scrupulous to a fault in taking care of their long trestos which hang loosely down thelr neck; indeed #0 par: ticular are they with their little ones,that it amounts almost to superstition. We presume, ifthe truth was known, Pha- Jon first got his idea of the Dahlia Cream (which he in- vented for the hair,) from them, for it gives a wonderful impetus to the growth of this ornament of ‘the human face divine”—a good head of luxuriant hair. We have seen several testimon‘als of its efficacy, but having tried it ourselves, pronounce it decidedly the only article fit for daily use of the hair. Sold wholesale and retail, in beau- tiful jars, at Phalon’s Hair Cutting Rooms, 214 Broadway, opposite St. Paul’s. N.B. The public are requested to look at a sample now exhibiting at the Fair. QG- COUGHS, COLDS, AND CONSUMPTION.—It should be remembered that a cough is always evidence that some impurity has lodged in the lungs, which, if not speedily removed, will so irritate those delicate as fooner or later to bring on an inflammation of the ungs-— a form of disease which we all know is the high road to consumption. Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are a most delightfu medicine for carrying off a cold, because they expel troml the system all morbid and corrupt humors, the cause of every kind of disease, in so easy and natural a manner, hat the body is relieved of all it sufferings a if by ma- gic. Four orfive of the said Indian Vegetable Pills, taken every night on going to bed, will, in a short time, remove the most obstinate cold—at the same time the digestive organs will be restored to a healthy tone, and the blood so completely purified, that inflammation of the lungs, con- sumption, or any other form of disease, will be absolutely impossible.

MONEY MARKET, Sunday, Oct, 23—6 P. Mm. ‘The magnificent country seat known as“ Andalusia,” Bucks county, the famous retreat of N. Biddle, is adver- tised by the sheriff of that county for sale, on the 4th No- vember. There is a hundred acres of splendid vine- yards, attached. There is quite a demand for Treasury notes in Wall street, as may be seen in an advertisement in another column. ‘The packet ship Virginian, from Liverpool, brings near- ly $100,000 in specie.

The ene alluding to the “improvement” in Alabama Funds, and the next paragraph stating that the advices by the coming steamer ofthe ath inst. would probably bring better accounts as to American securities in the European markets. You are aware that the notes ofthe Alabama State Banks have been under a depreciation of 40046, and that within a month even the depreciation has been 30a37, it is now juoted 12 only. , So great achange in their value, in so short a time, was a puzzle, but you afford a #lution to the enigma, by stating that the president ofthe bank had been here,” The direst inference is hen the beske h been buying up their own notes at a heavy discon: . posely created by their manavuvres in order so to %i age the unfortunate holders of them through every section of the Union. I say this is the direct inference, involving arefinement in plunder which far surpasses the adroit ness of Col. Monroe Edwards, the Biddles and the other Diddlers which each bank explosion throws up. Now, these things, we may be assured, are registered, analyzed, and served up with piquant j tions, for the European cay houses, by each steamer thi ularly astra. lists and leading money departs.
