BY SPECIAL EXPRESS. 11 o’ctock, P. M. Oar special express has just arrived from White Plains, Westchester county, bringing a package from our corps of reporters, containing the conclusion of the testimony in the Prize Fight Trial. The case will be submitted to the jury this evening, Satur- day. ‘The following is the contents, which are exclu- sive to the readers of the Herald :— James Hagan called and sworn—I was at the figit; I heard Salivan sav to Sanford, one of Me- Coy’s seconds, “you had better take your man away ;” Sanford replied, ‘Go to hell; he ean lick you"—I heard Ned Sprague when Sullivan spoke, say ‘hold your tongue, you damned Irish son of a biteh ;” he was very noisy; I heard M ester say very otten ’‘take your man away ;” when Lilly attempted to get up on his feet at one time—his seconds, Ford and McCleester stopped him, and Uthonght then that they were going to stop the fight themselves; he got up, however, and went towards the scratch ; I noticed this particular- ty, as I was disgusted with the seconds of McCoy, and was pleased with the conduct of Lilly’s seconds in requesting McCoy’s seconds to take him out of the ring ; towards the last of the fight McClee: appcared to neglect his duty, and not take much ir- terest in itas Lilly’s second; I heard Sullivan say to McCoy’s seconds “ what do you mean—do you mean to get the man killed 7” this was about the 105:h or 110th round ; Me’Coy’s frends appeared to desert him, and I remarked among others that Me- Cleester was the only man that stood by him; he rowed an oar in the boat that had the corpse. he Artorvey General here rose and stated that the accumulation of testimony showing that McCleester had evinced humauity on this subject was vot called tor. Messrs. Pr ce and Grawam contended that as the Attorney General had occapied two days of the court in showing varticulars of the brutality of the scen-, they certainly had a right to show all acts of humanity and kindness that were evinced by either of he prisoners. Mr. Granawm stated, that as one of the McCoy’s yorn to these facts,they would waive the ques- he wituess was then cross examined by Arror- ney Generavas follo keep a store and board- se in Cherry street; 1 was bora in Ireland, and came here when I wasseven years old; T have known MeCleester tor several years; I have known Sullivan about a year; he satin front of me during the most of the fight; [saw him spurt water over Lilly; Lwas at the fight at Hart’s Island, but did not see it, MeClees'er did not goto take up his man with the same spirit towards the last of the fight as he did before; there appears to be generally a se- cond who does the braggin: say at I did not hear Sullivan ume, * Lilly, the old spot—what did I tell you?” Ldid not see Sullivan atter MeCoy had jeftthe ground; f think that it was aboutgthe 90th round that I thought McCoy could not win the fight y Grantom—I was subpenaed by presecution, and saw the Listriet Attorney last evening, and he told me that I could go home. txocn E. Camp called again by defence—I was seutatthe post mortem examination of the body r Ir Hosack and MeComb, and perceived no marks of injury or blows below the naval of MeCoy; I asked Dr. Hosack to look at that partof his body below his waist in order to sa- tisty myself that no foul blow was struck that created anv injury; I heard the cry of “foul” made by some one on the grouad, and some asked me it I saw it, when [replied no; Isaw no foul blow nor mark upon the body of deceased below his waist, nor no clotted blood in the lower part of his abdo- men Mr Granam here stated that there were a num- ber of gentlemen present who could testify to the good character of McCleester. He also offered a lever signed by Aldermen Crolius, Purdy, and Hat- field, in which they certify to the previous good character of McCleester. The Arrorney Genera objected to its being ad- mitied as evidence. Mr. Price stated that he also had a number of Wilnesses to testify to the good character of Sulli- van The Cover admitted the letter to be read. Mr. Graham commenced reading it, when the Attorney General stopped him, and stated that the contents of the letter was not such as would be asked of a witness if he was onthe stand. Mr. Gra- ham replied, ang the Attorney General withdrew his objections. The letter was hen read as follows: “ New Yorx, Nov. 21, 1842.

We learn from Washington that the government are making great preparations to make ademonstra- tion upon Vera Cruz, and to speak to Mexico ina thunder tone. The Mississippi steamer has already been despatched to the Gulf of Mexico, with a spe- cial messenger, and a squadron is getting ready to meet herthere in January next. The Independence, Commodore Stewart, the Constitution, 44 guns, the Venvennes, Commodore Buchanan, are all to be ordered onjthis service,to meet the West India Squad- ron there. The steamers, however, will gbe with- drawn after a certain time,on account of their heavy expense Mr. Webster will remain at his post till the next spring, when he will either go to France or to Eng- land, and there continue his foreign negociatious. Mis family is going south during the winter. When Mr. Webster retires from the cabinet, either Mr. Spencer or Mr. Upshur will take his place, but which it may be, will be determined by the success of hard work and superior management. There are two cliques, or two “influences,” or two pair of back stairs to every administration—and so there is to this. The “old guard” form one of these influences,and the “recruits,” “militia,” or “spoils hunters,” the other influence. The good ‘‘old guard” go for Judge Up- shur—the “recruits” for Secretary Spencer. The fight between them will be beautiful. In the mean- time, Mr. Webster will keep all his friends now in office from removal till he goes abroad. Mr. Curtis, and the others in the Custom House, are good for another year—Col. Graham and Mr. Redwood Fish- erare also good for six months, with a renewal— but something will depend on Senator Tallmadge’s movements and indorsement. Major Noah can’t getan office yet—but as soon as possible he shall have a belly full. During all these movements, the President smiles, talks, enjoys himself, and is as merry as a cricket. So 1s Bob—so is John—so are all in the White House —and so are we in New York. Higuty Important Revorvrionary DocumEnt.— We sha'l tomorrow commence the publication of one of the most important papers connected with the history of the revolution. It is the celebrated trial of Joshua H. Smith, on the charges contained in the following document :— To Joux Lawnence, Esq., Judge Advocate General to the Army :— in, You will prosecute before the Court Martial now sit- ting, Joshua H. Smith, Esquire, an inhabitant of the State of New York, on the following charge First.—For going on board the Vulture sloop of war, belonging to the enemy, the night ot the 21st of this month in a private manner, and bringing on shore from the said vessel, Major Andre, Adjutant General to the Bri- tish Army. Secondly.—For secreting the said Major Andre in his house near our post at Stony Point, for furnishing him with clothes to disguise himself; and for passing with him by our posts at Stony and Verplanck’s Points so dis- guised, and under a feigned name. Also, for conducting him in his way to New York in a disguised habit, and un- der a feigned name, with intelligence tor the enemy. ‘Thirdly,—For acting as a spy in procuring intelligence for the enemy. Fourthly.—For aiding and assisting Benedict Arnold, Evorement 1x Hiaw Lire—Anormmr Scuinpuey Arram.—The recent elopement in high life is so very curious and remarkable in all its features, that we are induced to give all the particulars connected therewith. Tt appears that some time during last summer, @ very respectable physician cf this city, Dr. Com- stock, was spending a few weeks at Bath with his lady and daughter. It further appears that the Doc- tor’s family are in the habit of speaking Freach among their own family circle. At this time there was a young and very lovely lady residing in the Doctor’s house ; her father is a rich planter in Guay- ama, Porto Rico ; and her uncle, who is a bache- lor and also a planter of that island, is immensely rich ; and all that family are French. The fatber and mother of this beautiful and high- iy accomplished girl (who is only 17 years of age) brought her on to this ci'y last winter, and placed her under the guardianship of Dr. Comstock; at the same time they brought on to this city also, a son of theirs, aged about twelve years, whom they placed in a seminary to receive an English education. Matters and things went on very smoothly for some time, until the Doctor's family went to reside at Bath. Whilst they were down there, this young lady used eccasionally to ride down to Bath in the Doctor’s carriage, stay a few days, and return when she pleased. It so happened that at this very time, Captain D'Eymar, an officer in the French army, (who is on a visit to this country to look after some property left him in Louisiana,) went down to Bath to spend afew days. Here he fell in with, and fell in love with the beautiful young West Indian. He had very little difficulty in gaining access to good society here, as he had a furlough from the War Department in France, and letters to the French Consul here, besides exhibiting letters of introduc- tion from General Cass. In addition to all this, Captain D’Eymar himself is not to be despised ; being very good looking, and a large, powerfully built man of six feet 3 inches in height, with thews and sinews to correspond. The Captain, thus recommended, wasin the habit ot visiung the Doctor’s family circle occasionally, at which period he would now and then chat with the young West Indian, tell her stories of /a belle France, and contrived to make himself immensely agreeable to her and toll. Still, no one ever dreamt that there was any attachment between them, until the middle of last week ; and then an elderly lady who lives in the Doctor’s house, saw something more than usual pass between them, and suspected that all was not right, and communicated her suspi- cion to the Doctor. Upon this Dr. C. on Saturday last, boldly taxed Capt. D'Eymar with too delicate attentions to his ward. To this the Captain madea most solemn denial; said he had not the slightest feeling of attachment towards the young lady, and moreover that he had always treated her as though she were a mere child. This solemn assurance quieted the Doctor’s fears; and on Sunday he allow- ed the young lady to go over to Brooklyn, to see an auntof her’s residing there. She remained at her aunt’s all night, and !eft in the morning avowedly to return to the Doctor’s house. Instead of doing so, however, she contrived to meet the Captain, and they went off and got married that day. And the first intimation her guardian had of it, was a letter written by her and sent from Philadelphia, saying they were married, and in that city, and on their way to look after her husband’s property in the South. So runs the world away. Nothing can stay a wilful woman. City Intelligence, ‘Tue Evacuation.—Yesterday was quite a gala day in this sity,thenational standard might be seen floating in every direction, over our public buildings,hotels, theatres, late a Major General in our service, in a combination the enemy, to take, kill and seize such of the loyal zens or soldiers of these United States, as were in son at West Point and its dependen: By command, ROBT. H HARRISON, Secretary. Heap Quarters, 30th September, 1780. This trial contains all the important and inter- esting minutiw connected with Major Andre, from the time he left the Vulture till he was executed, Smith wes the mar who brought him ashore; at Smith’s house he arranged all his plans with the traitor Arnold. Smith gave Andre one of his own coats in exchange for Andre’s uniform coat. And Smith took Andre on his road halt way from King’s Ferry to Tarrytown. Thuis trial, moreover, contains all the minute tes- timony of Gen. Hamilton, Gen. Knox, Lufayette, Paulding and Williams (who took Andre), relative to the whole of that most extraordinary affair. It throwsa light on the history of that time that has not yetappeared. It explainsmuch that all historians have left in the dark. It also shows that Jared Sparks has mutilated the testimony of the mep who took Andre. And it forms a valuable link in the great chain of our revolutionary history that has long been wanting. We shall publish the whole of it verbatim from the original documents signed by Col. Henry Jack- son, the president of the court-martial. It is a trea- sure that should be carefully preserved by every American, and every lover of history; as this is the first time it has seen the light since the trial. Cot. Weer’s Case.—This is sentence day for Col. Webb It comes off at 11 o'clock, inthe Ses- sions. Last night, we sent up our final petition to Governor Seward, making in all well on to 1500 names that have been signed at this office in favor of his pardon. If he had behaved well in prison, and taken kindly the capital treat of wine and se- gars we sent him, we could have got 5000 signatures. People thought, from that conduct, that he was not penitent enough yet for a pardon. As it is, we rather think we have succeeded ingetting poor Webb a pardon, in spite of Hale and Bryant’s bitter oppo- sition We don’t think Governor Seward has dared to refuse our request. If he has, we will treat him as a certain barber did Mergan—and no mistake The great scene will come off to day, and a full report in an Extra Herald as soon thereafter as pos- sible. Tue Prize Ficwr Trav —It will be seen by the information brought by our special express at a late hour last evening. that the testimony on both sides in the trial of Sullivan, McCleester and Kensett at White Plains, is closed, and that the counsel com- mence summing up this morning. The Herald of to-morrow will probabiy contain the charge of Judge Ruggles and the verdict of the jury. Gen. Cass.—The meeting at Harrisburg, on Mon- day, relative to this distinguished statesman, was a large and enthusiastic one. A resolution was pass- ed in favor of Gov. Porter. Cour.—The body of Colt was taken out of the Vault at St. Mark’s Church yerterday morning, to be sent to Connecticut for interment. But the crowd was so great that for safety the body had to be taken in- to the Church and the police sent for. Musicau.—Max Bohrer’s Concert went off last night atthe Tabernacle with prodigious eclat. Par. ticulars hereafter. Navat Inretuicencr —The steam frigate Fultor has been laid up in ordinary at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and her crew transferred to the North Caro- lina. The appointment of Commander Franklin Bnchan- nan tothe sloop of war Vincennes, has displeased fifty-four older commanders in the navy. And thr appointment of Lieut. George P. Upshur to the com- mand of one of the finest gun brigs in the service, has not proved to be very acceptable to twenty: eight lieutenants, who are his seniors. None of thes: commanders or lieutenants have ever had a sing] command afloat Considerable murmuring is appa rentin consequence, Thie is all wrong. Indeed it is rank injustice Our glorious navy ought to be governed with more impartiality, Itshould be governed for the good oi all, and not of one, r two, or three Frozen ur.—The_Pittsburg Canal. and other places of amusement as well as from the ship- ping intheharbor. The military were out in great num- bers, made a very creditable appearance, and fired several salutes, feu de joie, &c. on the Battery und at the Park where they passed in review before the public authorities’ in front of the City Hall, previous to their dismissal. Ali this wasin consequence of the return of the anniversary of the day when the British troops evacuated our city af- ter aseven years’ possession, to make way for General Washington and the gallant army under his command, thus closing along war,and firmly establishing the inde- pendence of these United States. Buaninc or tHe CvroLa.—The Committeeson Police Watch, and Prisons of both Boards of the Common Coun- cil, met lust evening for the purpose of investigating the manner andcauseof the burning ot the cupola on the Tombs on the eventful Friday, the 18th of November, 1842. Several witnesses were examined, and we under- stand the Committee intend to fully investigate every event that occurred at the Tombs on that day. This they must do, and report speedily, as an act demanded by the entire public. A Queen Linet.—Mr. George Eger, of 170 Reade street, was yesterday arrested on a warrant issued on the affida- vit of Moses Blackstock, of 319 Greenwich street, c! ing him with having on the 12th September, 1842, written him a malicious and libellous letter, injurious to his cha- racter and reputation, and tending to a breach of the peace. On being brought tothe Pclice, Mr. Eger gave bonds in the sum of $500 to answer the charge, and was discharged. To nx Recocxizep—The body of a man about five feet ix inches in height, with brown hair, twenty-six years of age, tht had been in the water about a week, yester: day floated ashore on Governor's Island. The body clothed in an India rubber overcoat, black cloth dress pants and vest, black velvet stock, dark mixed gloves, white flannel under and linen over shirts, white cotton socks, and thin shoes. In the pocket of hisover- coat two London “ billies,” such as are carried by the Po- lice, were found. The body was brought to thecity by order of the coroner and placed in the Park dead house, where it now remains for recognition, and an inquest will be held this morning. Wenp’s Sextexce.—Col. James Watson Webb will re. ceive the sentenee of the law in the Court of Sessions room at the Tombs, this morning at 11 o'clock. The par- don follows, of course. Deatn sy Rum.—An inquest was yesterday held by the coroner on the body of Jonathan Stevenson, aged thirty- eight years, who had been an intemperate man, without any home, for nearly a year past, and fell down in the street on Thursday night, and died’ at a place where he was taken in, in atew hours. A verdict of “ died by in- temperance and exposure” was rendered. Diep or Neotrct.—A black woman named Mary Aun Pirson yesterday died at a miseratle hovel in Anthony street, where she had been suffering from sickuess and ne- glect for more than a year past. An inquest was held on the bod: 2 the coroner, and a verdict of “ died of dis- ease of the lungs and want of medical attendance” was recorded. Mustcat ArrivaL.—Signor Nagel and lady arriv- ed in town yesterday, and put up at the Astor House. Tue Artist vor Decemper.—This most splendid work is out, and contains three beautiul plates. The literary contents are very superior. The plate of the present Fashions in France is the only correct one in the city, being sent from France one month in advance. {tg We refer our readers to the advertisement in this day’s paper, of the Kremlin for sale.

Politws of South Carolina—the Newspapers—Mc- Duffie—Cotton Trade—State of the People—Lilly the Prize Fighter, Dear Sirr— Your advertisement offering the “Herald” for sale reached us, to use a vulgar expression, in the very nick of time, when we wanted something to excite us, and aflorded a prolitic topic of eonversa- tion until yoursubsequent announcement informed the world that you had relinguished the idea of selling. It was not a little amusing, I assure you, to hearthe grave discussions that grew out of that said sdvertisement. Some gave it as their decided opinion that you were only hoaxing the publi others that you had some hidden and mysterious object in view, and that there certainly was more in itthan met the eye; others again were quite sure that Bs had amassed a fortune, and intended for the future 40 enjey in undisturbed tranquility an otium cum digmitate, enlightened by good Mer- schaum and old Madeira, while another class, more sapient, I su you will agree, than all the rest, wondered what the devil we should do without you, and where we should never find another capable of supplying the vacuum made among the editorial fra- ternity by the exit of your incomparable self. ‘This it 18 to occupy so large a space in the public eye, and surely your vanity must be insatiable in- deed, if it is not gratified to loathing by the vast im- portance everywhere attached to your movements. Speculation is atan end with regard to the future fate of the “Herald” and its presiding spirit; we have again lapsed into a state of quiescence and re- pose, only occasionally disturbed by el-ction re- turns from Massachusetts and New York Our public journals partake of the dull, apathetic spirit, orrather character of the times, and pour forth no- thing calculated either to instruct or excite. Since the prospects of Mr. Calhoun have assumed so brighta hue, the ** Courier” seems to have taken rather neutral ground, and will probably occupy that position during the pending contest tor the Pre- sano The Mercury—but a word or two about the Mer- cury. The senior editor of that jeurnal isa bril lian fellow, ci Sea genius and high talent, but, alas that we should say so, sadly under the influence of a certain family, who have been moving heaven and earth to appropriate to themselves one seat in the Senate,and two in the House of Representatives, in the Congress of the United States. In fact so no- torious and obvious has this state of things become, that without a change, the Mercury must soon cease to be regarded as the exponent of the Democratic party in this city, and must be content to occupy the jumble station of a mere puppet in the hands of a selfish and aspiring quartette. Mr. McDuffie goes to the Senate in the place of Préston, who can never again rise in South Carolina. This arrangement, while it wale. great satisfaction te the party in this State, will fail to satisty the aforesaid gentle- men who regulate the movements of the Mercury, and who regard with an evil eye every thing which atall interferes with their appropriation of the loaves and fishes of office. The weather here is now extremely cold, raw, and disagreeable, unusually so for the season of the ear. The Legislature meets on Monday next — Nothing of importance to come before them except the election o Senator and districting the State. Businesss matters are rather discouraging Cot- tonis accumulating in large quantities on the wharfs, but prices are so low that planters are unwilling to sell, and even if they were willing to make the sales, it would be hard to find buyers. This stagnation in the Cotton market, paralizes the whole of our do- mestic trade. The planters are generally so much in debt, that it requires their whole surplus to meet those demands, which. press with the greatest urgen- cy, leaving nothing for new purchases, and there is but little disposition to sell on credit. There is one fact connected with the packing of cotton this sea- son that i+ of some interest, and that is the large quantity packed in bagging made of cotton. This article is now made in large quantities in this State, and bids fair to supercede the hemp bagging altoge- ther. So that curCarolinsiqanutesta ers, after all, are making some use of the tariff of 3 cents per yard, on hemp bagging. In a few years South Carolina will be as much in favor of a reasonable tariff as any other manufacturing State. If the people of this State are obstinate about some things,they have at least in thiscity, one of the highest of the virtues to counterbalance, and that is—patience. It is hardly to be credited how much endurance enters into the composition of our good people here. Interrupt their commerce, blow up their steamboats, break down their railroads, flood the community with shinplasters in the ehape of railroad ‘‘receivables,” which are “ neither flesh nor good red herring,” orstop their mails, and it is all the sam=. They seem to take every thing as the Turk takes the bas- tinado—* it is the will of God.” For the last five vars we have not had ten con-ecutive regular mails ay after day—year in and year out, the same ever- lasting notices are stuck up in the Post o<.ce—“ no mail north of Weldon,” ‘‘no mail north of Rich- mond,” ‘no northern mail,” and this perhaps for 3 or 4 days in succession, and then they Rigas tumb. ling in'together. No other community in the civil- tzed werld, would stand such constant interruptions in their correspondence. . There was a little fun in the streets a night or two ago, in the shape of a row between a parcel of the medical students, and a sett of our “ kno-k down and drag out” fellows, in which heads were crack- ed,and noses tanped in great style.

The throngs which visit here, and nightly testify their approbation in the most enthusiastic manner, fully substantiates this tact. To-night, a host of enter- tainments, of every shade in nature, “from grave to gay, from lively to severe,” are offered, not among the least of which are Herr Cline’s wonder- ful performances on the tight rope, and Mr. J. R. Scott’s impersonation of dramatic characters. * QG+ Fain Wansinc—Now or Neven—That incom: prehensible, wonderful and unparalleled work of nature the real Mermaid, which has been visited by many thou- sanda of persons in this city and Boston, isto be seen for the very last time this day and evening at the American Mu- seum.

The meeting of the friends of Mr. Van Buren, ‘ast evening, was indeed a very small affair, and will certainly be productive of no great benefit to the “Little Magician.” Wm. Dohnert presided, together with a large number of Vice Presidents and Secretaries, After the usual preliminaries, a com- mittee was appointed to draft resolutions already “cut and dried.” But a few words in relation to the material of which this “large and enthusiastic meeting of the democracy” was composed, and the sentiments of its speakers. Bill Blackburne, a noto- rious brawler, anda prominent one, to say the least of him, made a very silly ass of himself, and murdered more of the King’s English than he did justice to the cause of Vr. Van Buren. Bill most solemnly averred that history could afford no one instance where a democrat had ever proved recreant to his trust by suffering himself to be bribed, and that our chartered institutions were solely the work of political demagogues—not democracy. ‘This was the substance of his speech. 7 Next came a Mr. Jacques, and a pretty affair he made of it. He commenced by declaring that he was, ever had been, and always should be, a Van Buren min. Then followed a tirade of abuse upon the opponents of his favorite; but more particnlarly was his “burning eloquence” levelled at‘*the puny whipster of the Times,” pronouncing Mr. Du Solle an odious aristocrat, with Engrish rene and Eng- lish principles, ready at all times to kneel to the ca- price of Victoria’s petticcat. The editor of the ‘Times was most unmercifully dealt with for daring to expouse the cause of Neptune’s favorite and chi- valrous son, ‘Old Ironsides,” and if little John be not utterly annihilated for all time to come,he need not feel under any obligationsto Mr Jacques Gen. Cass next came in for a share of this “distinguish ed” orator’s sarcasm. The ex-mninister was most emphatically pronounced ‘‘a scum”—“a ekunk”— with sundry other hard names, an enemy to his country, and unworthy the least confidence of the honost democracy. s ft At this stage of Mr. Jacques’ vituperation, a gen- tleman fresent rose and said:—‘* He was an admi- rer of Gen, Cass, believed him a good conserva- tive-and if selected as the democratic candidate by the National Convention, would make an excelient President. He did not like to hear General Cass abused in so violent a manner "” Mr. J. then abused all who @ared to espouse dif- ferent opinions, and said that Tom Benton was the greatest living genius in the world! With a few other remarks, our orator satdown, no doubt, in his own estimation, as great a man aseither of his par- ticular frieads—Martin Van Buren or Tom Benton! Repeated cries were made for “ Page, Page ;” but IT afterwards learned the Colonel was enjoying himself very comfortably,in witnessing the excellent performances at Welch's “ Olympic.” “ Kerrison” was then called upon, who, very re- luctantly rose, and spoke about five minutes. He was followed by Nathan Nathans, James M. Davis, &e. &e. But enough—the meeting throughout was cha- racterised by aseries of the most coarse and unjus- tifiable abuse of a number of the best and ablest statesmen the countiy boasts of. It was composed, too, of the most turbulent spirits the party possesses, and take itall in all, was decidedly the greatest failure I have ever witnessed on the part of the *‘ pro- fessed” friends of Mr. Van Buren in this city. Rest assured, Philadelphia is not the spot where ‘his ban- ner may be unfurled with the remotest prospect of success—it will, on the contrary, droop, whilst others will triumphantly catch the political breeze, and rush onwerd to victory. s The jury in the case of Ned Roberts came into court at two o’clock, and asked to_ be discharged. They could notagree, and were again sent out aoe firemen, indicted for riot, &c. were ac- quitted. : At the Walnut, during the past two weeks, the en-. tertainments have been of the most unprecedented character. The audience, too, with one or two ex- ceptions, has been of the most crowded and fash- ionable nature. Indeed, the management of the old “American” has been crowned with complete success. And truly speaking it boasts of a more powerful array of ‘unquestioned talent than any otver establishment in this country. Mr. Marshal and Miss C.Cushman have done wonders in their brief career as caterers for the public, and surely they have met with corresponding liberality on the part of the community. To-night Miss Susan Cush man takes her benefit—the a are London As- surance, La Bayadere, and Rory O’Moore! To- morrow evening that_ sweet, enchanting, and une- qualled actress, Mrs. Brougham, appeal for the tronage of her numerous frierds—and she has miriads. Loves’ Sucrifice, The Omnibus, and La Bayadere, are announced as the evening’s entertain- ments, and with Mrs Brougham, Mad. Lacompte, Miss C, Cushman, Mr. Brougham, Mons. Lecompte, Mr. H. and T. Placide,Crippendale, and Davenport, who doubts but the house will be one perfect jam from pit to dome ? y . The Olympte was again crowded last evening. — Nathans performed some of the most wonderful feats ever attempted in the ring, and elicited shouts of applause. Little Glenroy is a mir&cle, and Ro- gers has no superior in the world. To-night an ex- cellent billis offered. At the Chesnut, Mr. Maywood takes his benefit.

The value of the Brandreth Pills depend upon their won- derful power in strengthening the principle of life, and weakening the principle of disease, and finally expelling it from the ody. Let us consider the subject carefully; would disease affect us if our blood were pure? ‘Then in proportion that Brandreth’s Pills purify the bloodthey tend to restore health.

The body becomes stronger every day fcom the use of the Brandreth Pills, as is known by the experience of tens of thousands of our citizens, Where is the man of sense whose mind is unprejatticed, who, from the infectious smell after Jeath, would not say would this body have been bereft of life had putrefaction been prevented? Are men born but to he sick? Shall the lower animals live their full extent, and man only pre- maturely perish? Let us follow nature—let us cleanse the blood trom impurities, and we shall live to the full extent of the oil in our lamp of life But continued purging will wear outthe body; some otherwise sensible people affirm, that it is like wearing out the kettle py dint of rubbing. Does then rust preserve metallic substances? [t would be admitting that impuri- ties in the blood preserve it in a healthy condition. We know better.

INFLAMMATION OF THE EYES IS NOT only always attended with intense suffering, but when neglected, ofen terminatesin blindness.
