NW YOR ew York, K HERALD. mber 13, 184 itation for the next sia y—General Lewis Cass In the Pie! The War begun, Yesterday ( ral Cass received the con- gratulations of h riends in the Governor's Room, at th Hall great concourse of Citizens assemble and amongst them were large nu rol ading members of the demo- cratic General Cass looked remarkably well, and ape much gratified by the cordial, and io many instances enthusiastic reception with which ne was greeted. The return of General Cass from his foreign mis- sion, and his appearance at this particular period, render him an object of universal attention, The many important associations connected with his name, and the position which he now occupies, have, as may readily be supposed, excited a re- markable sensation in all political circles. ‘The ad- herents of Mr. Clay seem to be completely paralysed those of the other candidates, with the exception of Mr. Van Buren, appear to be in a similar uncom- Bat the most singular develop- duced by the q condition. 3 pr tabl eat of ival of Gene- ral Cass, is that which is presented by the conduct of the friends of Mr. Van Buren. A spirit of conster- nation almost amounting to frenzy, has seized upon them, and to all human appearance, has annihilated their reason and their common sense. The history of General Cass, embracing as it does, the record of numberless patriotic deeds during the last war—a long and honorable career a states- man—and a private life of unblemished reputation as —presents to the view of the democratic masses, such claims for a nomination for the next Presiden- cy, that the friends of Mr. Van Buren in this city, have become very nearly allied to the unfortunate in- mates of the Bloomingdale Asylam for the insane.— Asan evidence of the truth of this statement, we have only to present the following article, which ared yesterday in the organ of Mr. Van Buren, appe t * Plebeian. vis Cass has returned from his mission to France, h the honor resulting from bis participation in p ty of the Five Great Powers relative to the right From the credit which is justly due for his services in that behalf, we would not subtract an iota, Indeed, we can say that we remember not an act nL) of his official career abroad, to which the least exception can be just y taken. With pleasure would we add, were nt with truth, that his conduct asa man, has deserving of the same commendation as his eificial But facts would not justify such an assertion. jo, that Gen. Cass has been guilty of ucts g, then, as w infidelity and ingratitade to the Democratic party, from whom he received bia appointment, it is proper that we frankly state the grounds upen which our opinion is based, This we do from no unfriendly feeling towards him per. sonally, but because ¢xisting circumstances and contem- plated movemeuts demand that the extent of his connec- tion with the Democratic party should be fully under stooa. Did appearances indicate that Gen. Case was about to take a place quietly in the ranks, we should be silent. In that case, years of faithful service might obliviate the nce of his lapses in Europe, and place him in a sfavorable light before the public. His friends, how- , seek to make him our leader in the next presidential est, and therefore we deem it expedient to set forth his deviations from the path of rectitude. jor that he has truckled to the and to the spirit of whigism We condemn Gen. Cass athome. He bent the knee to kingly power in F by his book on that country and its monarch—a boo! with sickening adulation of Loui lippe, disgusting in disgraceful to a republican, and which earned the contempt of the nobility of France, and the corn of the democracy of both continents. A friend, hom we place the utmost confidence, a democret of his city, lately returned from Paris, informed us that the nduct of Gen, Cass had made him exceedingly unpopu- with everv liberal at that capital. neral Cass has truckled to the Whigs of this country, in several instances. After the last Presidential election, he very gratuitously published a card in the Paris papers, requesting the French people not to believe the state- ments in the Globe, and other Democratic papers of this country, relativeto the fraud and pipe-laying, by which the Whigs triumphed, as they were extravagancies of a partizan press, and winting in truth. This was done to propitiate General Harrison, from whom he afterwards re- quested the favor of bei aliowed to remain at Pari Again, after the death of General Harrison, in an oration delivered by General Cass, at Paris, he eulogized the military car of the deceased—notwithstanding it had led by the Democratic party through- out the Presidential canvass—which assaults, if unjust, (as inly were, if the oration of General Cass is el reputation of a brother soldier, ed before the contest was decided. If he had jon while the result was unknown, his mo- a liable to the suspicion which afidence in Gen, Cass, which we enter- e pervades the great mass ofthe Democracy. that be he claims their suftrages he shall \f to them by warm and energetic efforts for the cause. To either Van Buren, Calhoun, Benton, or any other statesman, who has labored with zeal for ples of the Democratic creed, they ca tic support, y w that e . carry out thos ples. But they have little desire to practice the Whig policy of availability. As an evidence of the feeling in the Democratic ranks wecan refer to the result of a movement made in the Young Men’s General Committee of this city, Satur- day evening. A member had procured the calling of a special meeting, and when it was organized, surprised tl committea by offering a preamble and resolutions relati to Gen. Cass, which of course if adopted by that, a politi- cal committee would have regarded as an endorsement of his Democrac Some debate took place, and the roll be- lled the resolutions were rejected by a vote of one ‘The movement was injadicions, but being ‘mmittee could not have treated it in any other manner tban they , without great wrong to their party. It would certainly be impossible to compress with- in smaller space, such a quantity of folly, ignorance, small malevolence and spite, as appears concentrated in this emenation of the official organ of Mr. Van Bu- reninthiscity. Inthe first place the statement made relative to the action of the Young Men’s General Committee on Saturday evening, is totally misrepre- sented. Instead of a vote endorsing the democracy of General Cass, being negatived in that committee, they merely passed a resolution, declaring that there was no precedent for taking up in that way the sub- ject of the nomination for the next Presidency. There can indeed be little doubt that the motion was introduced by one of the friendsof Mr. Van Buren for the purpose of prejudicing the cause of General Cass. But the attempt, however, or for what purpose it was originaed, failed. The Committee re- solved individually to call on General Cass and give him their cordial greeting. And they fulfilled their intention yesterday, along with all the men of any prominence connected with the party. The idea now attempted to be promulgated that General Cass is no democrat, is utterly preposterous. It is so entirely absurd that it will failto produce any effect on the people of this country, unless it be ex- actly the reverse of that intended by the authors of the silly calumny. In replying to Mr. Van Buren and his friends, when they say that General Cass is no democract, there is no necessity to do more than point to his heroic deeds in the field,and his sagacious and consistent conduct in the cabinet. Cae Mr. Van Buren exhibit as illustrious or useful a career? What has he to show wherewith to attract the hearty good-will of the nation? He has, it is true, displayed great judgment in agricultural pursuits; and his taste in decorating a mansion or getting up an equipage, we will not dispute. But in what bloody contest has his arm been raised in behalf of his coun- try? On what well-fought field has his sword reaped new laurels for American bravery and prowess? But General Cass has, forsooth, written a book of travels,in which he has spoken in complimentary terms of Louis Philippe, and treated him as one gentleman should another; and this is ‘ eonfirma- tion strong as proot of holy writ,” that General Sasa isno democrat! Now, it happens that in his bearing in social intere ¢, General Cass is the same toall, from the highest to the lowest. Through- out his entire career, he has treated the honest, but poor mechanic, with the same cordial respect that he bas the highest monarch of Europe. [t isutter!y impossible for the friends of Mr. Van Buren to make any thing out against the political reputation of General Cass, from the contents of any amusing book, giving an account of his travels in Europe, which he may have thought proper to write. His standing in his own country, and his claims upon his fellow citizens for the next Presidency, repose on no such frail foundation. We can point to his early connexion with Jefferson's administration— his faithfo! and uniform adherence to the principles he thea espoused—to his chivalric conduct at De- troit, where Hull disgraced his country and his flag —to his heroic bravery on the banks of tue Thames —and to his diplomatic career, which has been equally brilliant and successful. The great object of Mr. Van Buren’s friends, is to destroy the well-established confidence which maintained byfthelmasses of the 4emocracy, purity and consistency of General Cass’ principles; and to obliterate the recollection of his patriotic and useful conduct in the field and in the cabinet. But all this willbe vain. Every attempt to detract from the worth and merit of General Cass, will be met by indignant reproof, and his popularity will be redoubled. In reference to the position at present occupied by General Cass, the following correspondence, which has appeared in one of the journals of the day, is perfectly satisfactory :— New Yeux, December 10, 1842. My Dean Sir :— You must have observed since your arrival at Boston, that you have been recommended in many of the public papers in different parts of the United States as a candi- date for the chief executive office of the Republic—and particularly that you were nominated to that office at a ‘arge Democratic ‘meeting at Harrisburg on the 21st ulti mo. The manner in which your nomination is mentioned by some of the whig papers, ia such as to excite a suspicion among those who do not know you, that you favor whig principles, and some have said that your views en a Ne- tional Bank are identical with those of the whig I know that there is no ground for such suspicions, aud that youare entirely willing that your views upen those subjects should be known to all parties From the long and friendly relations which have existed between us, be fore as well as durivg the time we w: fellow members of the Cabinet of President Jackson, and ever smce, Itake the liberty of asking from you such explanation of your views upon these subjects as shall be entirely satisfactory to your political With the highest respect and esteem, lam your friend and humble servant, MAHLON DICKERSON. To Gen. Lewis Cass. New Yorx, December 10th, 1842. My Dear Sin: Ihave received your letter of this day, and have no diffi- culty in giving you a prompt and unequivocal answer to the questions you present to me. 1am a member of the Democratic party, and have been so from my youth, Twas first called into public life by y flerson, thirty-six ;years ago, and sm a firm be- liever in the principles laid down by him From the faith as taught and received in his day, I have never swerved, a single instant. So much for my general sentiments.” With respect to a National Bank, I think the feelings and experienceof the country have decided against it, and that no such institution should be chartered by the Gene- ral Government. Twill add, that my remence in France, and a careful observation of the state of that nation, have satisfied me that, while a due degree of credit is highly useful in the business concerns of a country, a sound specie basis is es- sential to its permanent prosperity. With great regard, I am, dear sir, ‘Truly yours, EW: CA8S, Hon, Manion Dickerson, ‘These declarations of Gen. Cass are fully support- ed by the history of his life. Can Mr. Van Buren, we again ask, pregent such evidence of his claims to the regard of his countrymen? Mr. Van Buren has already run twice for the Presidency. He has broken down his party by his indiscreet measures, bad appointments, and the defalcations and terrible demoralization amongst those whom he associated with himself in the exercise of the government. At this moment Mr Clay is one of the most formidable candidates in the field. For whenever the proper time comes, the whole Whig party will unite in his support. IfGeneral Cass be thrown aside, we have not the least doubt that the democrats will sustain an overwhelming defeat. They will be as effectu- ally beaten as they were in 1840. But the name of Cass is so sustained by his personal popularity, and allthe other aids we have described, that it can at- tracta degree of support to which Mr. Van Buren can make no pretension. The friends of Mr. Van Buren are besides called on to make a stand for the establishment of the wholesome principle of one presidential term. There never was a more propi- tious time for such an effort—an effort which every consideration of sound policy recommends. With a candidate combining such a degree of moral strength, sound political principle, personal popula- Tity, military fame, and diplomatic usefulness, as are presented in the person of Gen. Cass, the democra- tie party cannot possibly anticipate anything but the success which the selection of such a candidate en- sures. A Roar rrom tHe Oxp Lion or tue Hera tack.—The brave old Lion of the Hermitage is still alive and roaring. Cuptain Tyler, like the Roman soldier, has been trying to sooth the galjant old sa- vage of the forest, but he only gets a growl in return. In spite of the recommendation to Congress to pay back to General Jackson the New Orleans fine of $1000, including interest, General Jackson comes plump out against the exchequer plan, und denoun- ces it as paper currency of the worst kind. This is the unkindest cut of all.‘ Tam a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.” Tue Lisrenarv Witt Case.—This case was de- cided in December last by the Court of Errors. The opinion is final se far as the personal property of Alice was concerned. The writ of ejectment, which was early on the calendar for this month in the Superior Court, has been postponed by consent of counsel until some time in the first week of January, in consequence of the absence of Major Nicholson, who we understand to be the principal plaintiff in the case. This arrangement had been made the day previous to his arrival. This isa cu- rieus case, involving great principles. We look upon this case as one of the most important ever presented to a jury. The ablest lawyers of the country are engaged. We shall report it at length, together with the decision of the Court. Generat Cass at TRE Park Tueatre.—General Cass visited the Park theatre last evening, and was received by a crowded house with great applause. ‘The band played up ‘ Hail Columbia”—* Yan- kee Doodle”—and “ Home, sweet home,” follow- ed by three rounds of tremendous applause. There is a manliness about General Cass that takes very much with the masse: Twe Marker vs. Suor Butcuers.—By the pro- ceedings last night in the Board of Aldermen, it will be seen that the Market Butchers achieved a per- fect victory over the shop butchers, and that an or- dinance was'passed more decided in its tone against selling meat at other places than public markets, than any that has previously existed. The same question will come up in the Board of Assistants this evening. Mr. Brauam’s Concert.—It will be seen that the Messrs. Brahams give a concert at the Stuyve- sant Institute, on Thursday evening this week. See advertisement. Late From Bermupa.—We have received Ber- muda papers to the Ist instant, by the Ann Denman, Nothing doing there. Bermuda is generally very quiet. Ttought to be considered fortunate, that a hurricane sometimes visits that place to stir up the inhabitants. They would otherwise die of stagna- tion. Brrs —We owe Pomeroy & Co. one for bringing us late Albany papers. That express line runsover the Housatonic Railroad inside of thirteen hours, including stops. There is no mistake about Pome- roy & Co. Wirnovr rue Mait.—The steamship Acadia left Halifax for Liverpool on the the evening of 4th inst. The mails from Canada and New Brunswick, inten- ded to go by her, althongh due on the 2d, did not reach Halifax unt! the 6th, owing to the severe storms in that vicinity. They will go in the Colum- bia. New Suerwr at Patavecenia—William A. Porter, son of the Governor, has been appointed High Sheriff of Philadelphia, and he has appointed Thomas D. Smith, Chief Deputy Sheriff. New Governor General or Canana.—Sir Cha’s Bagot will not muchionger hold the reins in Canada. Lord Elliot is already spoken of as his successor. Derrn or Syow.—In the woods and on the moun- tais in Canada, snow is three feet deep. In Nova Scotia there were drifts from twelve to fifteen feet indepth. All around this city there are frem six inches to one foot of snow. Yet here not more than two inches has fallen this season. Farr Srant.—That northern express line, con- ducted by those clever men, Pullen & Copps, comes into this city with rail road speed from Albany. They frequently give us news from fall this side of the North Pole Puttosoruicat anp Reticiovs Operation oF THE Banxrurt Law—Tur Case or Anruur Tarpax-— We give in this day’s paper an abstract of the peti tion of Arthur Tappan, filed a few days since in the United States Court. It is full of instruction and wisdom—and is another experiment, exhibiting the singular operation of the credit syatem in busi- ness and in religion, obtained exelusively by the bankrupt process of analysis, going on in a higt state of efiervescence throughout the country. Mr. Arthur Tappan isa most amiable, worthy, and excellent man—full of morals, piety, integrity, benevolence, business habits, and industry. Lis misfortunes have been produced, not by antof any of these qualities, or moral elements of charac: { ter in the aggregate—but by a deficiency in a proper and philosophical adjustment or organization of these component parts, with the present progress of society, government, and religion in the world. He has a justly eminent character for piety and religion —but he has been paying too high prices or rates of interest for these valuable articles, and under a currency shockingly expanded, and resting on no silver or specie basis. Mr. Tappan is descended trom a very resp’ pilgrim family in Massachusetts. He eame to > York a young man, and established himself in busi- ness, which he continued for several years and was reputed very wealthy. This reputation brought about him all the pious and learned men of the day, by whose advice and entreaties he was induced to bestow large sums upon colleges, academies and in- stitutions, in order to educate ministers to the glory ot God and the salvation of souls. Under the aus- pices of Mr. Arthur Tappan, the “Journal of Com- merce” was first established on the principle of ad- vocating the pure juice of the grape, and eschewing all theatrical and grocers’ advertisements, and it was said at the time that he sunk $20,000 in that en- terprise. He also aided or originated the cause of abolition, of temperance, and the stopping of the mails on Sunday. Yet in all these ultra moral movements there wasa benevolence, benignity and liberality in Mr. Tappan, that east a halo of glory and kindness over his whole conduct. The bank- rupt law will, therefore, produce a salutary eflect on a mao of his kind heart and sagacious mind. He will do a better and a safer business hereafier, and altogether on the cash system both in piety and poplins. The credit system, run beyond a natural limit, has ruined the country, and is the cause of all the evils now felt by the intellectual classes. Banks, States, corporations, saints, sinners, and philosophers have all fallen before this awful system. ‘The bank- rapt law has come forward with a terrible sponge of repudiation, and wiped the whole out with one sweep, like the besom of destruction. We trust that the country and its morals may herea{ter im- prove, whether it be repealed or not. ble ew Common Council, Boarp or Arprenmen, Monday, December 12th. —Alderman Woodhull, President, in the chair, and all the other members, except Ald. Carman an] Stewart. Petitions.—From the Farmers’ Loan and Trast Compa- ny andthe Mechanics’ Bank, for a reduction ot tax—re- ferred to committee on assessments. A petition from the Mechanics’ and Traders’ Bank for correction of ilding pier between Pike and Market slips—referred to com! Petitions from captains of the 4th district Watch, for four additional watch posts—referred to Police Committee. Petition from the Mechanics’ Bank for relief from tax in accordance with tne reduction of theircapital by loss to $1,600,000—referred to same committee. Alderman Uxperwoop stated that the Comptroller had examined the subject, and concluded that the bank was not entitled to axy reduction. A bill from General Storms for parmant for ammunition used for firing salutes on the 25th of November, Evacua- tion day—referred. Reports of Commit The Special Committee to whom wasreferred the matter of cleaning streets by con- tract, presented a report, which was ordered to be laid upon the table and printed. Alderman Batis moved that when the Board adjourn, it adjourn to meet again on Wednesday evening, and that the subject of sweeping the streets by contract be made the special order of the evening. Aldermen Toxvy and Lxe cpposed the selection of Wednesday for the action on this business, and hoped that the geatlemen would withdraw the motion. Alderman West of the 16th Ward said that if the’gentle- man from the first withdrew it, he should renew the mo- tioa, as he, for one, was ashamed of the delay that had been made in this business Alderman Lroxaap opposed meetipg on Wednesday night to discuss this subject. ahem Davie ai vocaied | the selection of Woines. +and urged it onthe ground 1! integests demande! the passage of an ordinance authorizing’ the sweeping of the streets by contract, in closing, al luded to the difficulty between the majority and minority at the organization of the board last spring. Alderman Lxoxaxp replied and defended the proceed- ings of the Democratic members at the period alluded to. fie was repeatedly called to order by the Whig mem- bers, but was allowed by the chair to proceed, and finally concluded by expressing his opposition to fixing Wednes- day night to debate this subject, as time sufficient would not elapse for members to examine the new ordinance. ‘The question was finally put,and decided in the affirma- tive by a strict party vote, the democrats in the negative. This erdinance gives the power of making the contract for sweeping the streets, to the special com mittee raised for that purpose, consi 8S Jdermen Balis, Martin and Davies, and assistants Esquirol, Brady and Mead.— The contract is to last forfive years, and the contractor will be bound to sweep each and every street at least three times m every week; also, to send carts through the vari- ous streets once in cach day to collect all filth and Suoses that may be placed on the side walks in boxes, and also to keep the wharves and slips clean and clear, as well as the culverts, basins and sewers ; also to remove all snow und ice that may collect in front of the Bite buildings and places during the winter season, and send carts through each street three times per week to collect cinders. The free use of the Croton water is given to the contractor un. der the superintendance of the Croton water eommittee, and the contractor is under the jurisdiction of his con. tract and the courts of law alone. A resolution to authorise the counsel of the Board to lease the bath on the north side of the Battery bridge to Elias Thomas, for $200 per annum for five years, and the south side to Jacob Rabineau, for five years, at $360 per annum. was presented, and on motion of Alderman Bi was laid on the table until he could ascertain something relative to a bargain between somebody and Mr. 'Tho- mas. The Market Question.—At half-past seven ‘o'clock ~ precisely, after tea, Allerman Davies in the chair, Alder- man Jones moved that Document No. 31 and tive thoreto be then taken up, which reed to, A petition from Robert C. Cornell aod one hundred others, to repeal the market laws, was presented, and read; yi renga from George Taylor. jr. and filty others, for a ject. A written opinion from Edwin Phillips, and others, butchers of Clinton market, aldressed to Alderman Da- vies, was read, in which he belabors the Comptroller for his recent opinion relative to the butchers and the rents due from them. He took strong ground in favor of the re- turn to the butchers of the premiums paid by them for the stalls originally leased. Of J. Bingham and others, shop butchers, in favor of re- peal of market laws. Alderman Jones then rose and stated that there were at least 250 butcher shops now in operation in this city, and they had become so firmly established that it would now be impossible to prohibit them. That the jurors of this ity before the ward courts had refused to give a verdict against the shop butchers, and therefore he believed that public opinion was decidedly in favor of altering the sale of meats at shops under prones regulations. He then moved for the sdoption of the ordinance which was taken up in sections, A Alderman Lrosinp sprees the on of the ordi- nance and offered the following resolutions as a substi tute :— “ Whereas, frequent violations of the hog ordinance regulating the public morkets, have from time to time been committed 2 hig sale of fresh meats by the joint or piece, in places other than the public markets, which by said ordinances is prohibited; and whereas, such viola- tions of the ordinances have grown out of a monopoly feature contained in said ordinances, prohibiting any but apprenticed butchers from selling’ mest in said public markets; Therefore, “Resolved, That the committee on markets be instruct- ed to report such amendments to the ordinances regulating the public markets, as will permit sll persons desirous of engaging in the business of a butcher, to occupy stands in all or any of the public markets, by submitting to the regulations of the market committee. “ Resolved, That the Common Council will from time to time, upon the application of petitioners, (who being owners of property or tenants occupying houses,) erect or cause to be erected such markets, in such places as shall be desired by said petitioners, for the sale of fresh meats, poultry, fish, veg stables, &c.” Alderman Unpenwoon hoped that action would he taken atonce on this subject. He said he was in favor of well regulated markets and well regulated meat shops, and he knew no reason why both could not be licensed in this city as wells in Boston, and almost every other city in the Un- ion, He also shewed, by reference to documents,that at the original sale of the in the Franklin and other markets it was neverconsidered that the Corporation was to re- turn any moneys so received. He contended that the enormous di ce between the rents in the public mar- kets and the met shops, wes such, that ifthey were all on an equality, the shops would sooner or later be aban- doned to acertain extent. That if the meat sold in the meat shops was not as as that sold in the markets, the public would not purchase it, but if they sold as good or better, they would obtain custom in proportion. He contended that it was the duty of the Mayor to see the market Jaws enforced, and that during the last three years the sum of $60,000 had become due from the butchers, for the very reason that the laws was not enforced against the shop butchers. Common ‘Council appointed twelve marshals to report the violations of the market laws, which men were placed under the jurisdiction of or, and after six or seven months labor, they dis- nd ed two butcher shops, He then alluded pers rela. system of forestalling as in the several markets, which alt a viol of the law, yet the ad i> if was such that he conld not interfere to prevent ite vi Alderman Woopnuit said thatthe cherter of the city had given the Common Council power to late butch. ers, but if a license was given to any ones, except 0 butcher, the laws would give the Corpyration no authority over them. He was not, therefore, fees to support the ordinance, until the matter was fully pees Alderman Lrowann said that he thought the objections of Alderman Woonnut, were merely technical a* any man must be coasidered a butcher, whea he undertook that business. He then stated that the Alderman of the third ward had intimated thatthe charge of the markets wes with the Mayor, when, ifhe had looked atthe ordi nances, he would have found that otber persons than him had the special] jurisdiction of the markets, and the law appertaining thereto. He then said in his opinion the butchers were entitled to allthe moneys paid as premi- ums for stalls, and that by @ recent decision in the Su. preme Court, such property was the inheritance of the butchers and their children’ But atthe time of thesale of those stalls, Alderman Cxsra was compelled to make such a declaration before he could get a bid for the stalls Heconcluded by asserting that under these circumstances he should oppose the passoge of this ordinance or any pe id deprived the butchers of the premiums they ad paid. Od concluding, some of the butchers in the lobbies, which were crowded to excess, applauded by clapping their hands in Davirs, of the 15th, in thechair, stated that would be cleared if such demonstration took place again. ted that Alderman Cxnna had not Alderman Joni said that the premiums were as good as an ij Alderman Li tated that Alderman Cenea did moke use of such rtions, ana further that there should not be any sale of meat below lith street. Thet the butchers were not the monopolists, but that the cit itself first commenced the monopoly. by compel- ling the butchers to purchase licenses. He then ex- amined the report of the Comptroller, and avowed his concurrence with the resolutions of the Alderman of the oth, and therefore moved to lay the ordinance en the table. Alderman Grpney of theSth, said he was in favor of action; but he thought the Common Courcil had no right to charter Poet There was nothing in the charter to authorize the licenses of shops; and, therefore, he did not believe they had such power. Alderman Usperwoop rose te reply to remarks made by the Alderman of the 9th, and stated that the Mayor was, according to the charter, the clerk of the market ; and, therefore, all superintendents and clerks were under his control. He again alluded to the original lease, in which the markets were sold for one year only, and drew the conclusion therefrom that they held no rights on account of the payment of premuims. He further contended that the Common Council should never have allowed the sale or transfer of stalls. Alderman Leoxarp rose to reply in answer to a remark that fell from the Alderman ofthe 3d, in which he stated that the highest price paid as a premium, was about. $3000, when a gentleman stated within whispering dis tance, that he had paid 64,500 for a stall in Clinton mar- ket, and that the beara paid was full $39,000, which had been put in the public treasury. Alderman Woopnuxt said he hoped that the question would be met at once, as he wasas ready now as at any other time. ‘The resolutions of the Alderman of the 9th, as above given, were again read, and the ayes and nays called on their adoption. Alderman Pcnpy said he shouldjvote against laying the ordinance upon the table, as he was ready to meet the question at once in a spirit of compromise and boncession. He then replied to the Alderman of the 34 in his attack up- on the Mayer, and said it was strange that the gentleman should first assert that he was opposed to seeing the market Jaws put in operation, and then turn round and find fault with the Mayor for not seeing them executed. He stated that he believed the butchers had been imposed upon, and that he had seen the chairman of a market committee rise at a public sale and tell the butchers that unless they ad- vanced in their rents the city must abandon the erection ef markets. He then alluded to the operation of the caange in the market laws upon the sinking fund, and asked if the reduction of rents by such a change would not materially interfere with the revenue under thet, head. He contended that the butchers hada just claim upon the city government for the premiums that they had paid into the city treasury. ‘The metion was then put again to lay the ordinance up- on the table and was lost by a vote of 11 tod—Aldermen Martin, Lee, Leonard and Bonnell in the éffirmative ; Al- dermen Carman and Stewart absent. Alderman Woopxu tu repeated what he had said before relative to licensing butchers only, and said he could not perceive that the butchers should complain at a change ofthe system, if under proper regulations. ‘The ordinance was then taken up for adoption, Alderman Gep» aid he was in favor of constructing small shops as public markets, and having them all be- longtag ty the city. The first section being taken up, an amendment was asked for by Alderman Gedney, that would totally vent the licensing of any persons to sell meat except in the public markets, which was carried by a vote of 10 to 5— Aldermen Jones, Woodhull, Underwood, Smith and Bon- nell inthe negative. Alderman Crouivs moved to adjourn, which was lost by ayes 6and nays 9. The first section, as amended, was then put and adopted by ayes 10, nays 5—Aldermen Balis, Underwood, Wood- hull, Smith and Geancy in the negative. Aiderman Jonrs stated that he had voted in the affirma- tive, for the purpose of calling for a reconsideration, as he believed some of the members did not understand the question. Alderman Lee then called for the which was lost b: Leonard, Pardy, tive. Alderman Lee then moved for a reconsideration, he revious question, a vote of 6 to 9—Aldermen Martin, jatfield, Bonnell and Lee, in the affirma- having voted in the affirmative, which was tived by avoteof noys 12, xyes 3—Aldermen Woolhu |, Under- woog, and Leenard, in the negative. lerman Poxpy presented an amendment calling for ‘const: of small markets by the Common Coun- cil, which be withdrew.

General Sessions. Before Recorder Tallmadge and Judge Lynch. James R. Waitrse, District Attorney. _ De. 12.—Wolle Proseyui.— At the opening of the court William Barr and Michael Redmond, sawyers, of Jersey City, who were indicted for grand larceny on & charge of stealing two sticks of dock jine timber, valued at $27 62 from the slips at Washington market, on the night of the lath October last, appeared in court and were discharged nolle prosequi having been eniered. There was not proof sufficient to convict them of the larceny, although the property was found in possession of Barr. The tim ber belonged to the city corporation, and the accused re funded the price of it to the city authorilies. Trial for Perjury.—-A carbuncled faced, bullet-eyed genius, named William Steward, was placed upon his trial on an indictment for perjary., It appeared that ac- cused had offered himself as bail in the sum of $500, for _ pe who ae bean, arrested for assauit acd bat- ery on Thomas Moore, andon appearing before Ju; Lynch made an affidavit that he resided at 121 "Vander street, and occupied the store 85 South street, and was a dealer in imported mustard, 8, &C.—that his stock in trade in the store was worth $1700 or $1900, and that over and above his debts he was worth $1200, and owed no one over $100. ‘The prosecution qroved by Henry A. Walton, of the firm of Farran 3 Walton, who occu- py the first floor of 85 South street, that they had occupied the store for nearly five Jeary 98 a grocery, and that no such man as Stewar had, dui that time, been in mn of any part of the premises, Abraham Green, deputy sheriff, deposed that some time last summer he La apa of about $25 worth of fix. tures belonging to Henry A. Harriott, that were in the second story of the store 85 South street, and sold them under execution. Wm. Layton, sail maker, testified that he occupied the third story of the store,and knew no such person as Steward. ‘The defence called the names of John Scoble, Mr. Reed, Mr. Smith, Mr. Thomas and Mr. McDonough es witnesses, but neither gentleman answered. The counsel ot accused stated that it was of no great importance as the defence merely wished to show the general imbecility of prisoner, and nothing more. No evidence was, therefore, offered in defence, and the jury was addressed by Jonas B. Philtips, Esq. Theron Rudd, Esq. for prisoner, address- ed the court relative to the informality of the indictment, and was re plied toby District Attorney Whiting, for pro- secution. ‘The Jury returned a verdict of guilty, and the sentence was suspended for a few days in order to allow counsel to enter some exceptions to the charge of the Recorder. Trial of Wm. Morrow-—This man was indicted for grand larceny, in stealing on the 24th of May, a biack leather trunk irom M. O. Halstead, of 31 Nassau street, containing the clothing ofhis son who was about to leave the city for college. ir, Raymond deposed that he saw the accused take the trunk and ci iton board of a steamboat on the day above mentioned. The trunk was afterwards found, with the contents, valued at $75, taken therefrom. The jury found him guilty, and the Court sentenced him tothe ‘State Prison for four years and ten months. Trial for selling Lottery Policies.—A lottery policy vendernamed Lafayette Green, was then tried for viola- tion of the laws against selling policies in foreign lotte- ries. John Brinkrough, a colored maa, testi that on the Sth of October last he purchased a policy from the ae- cused containing numbers 5, 29, and 60, for $20 on each, and paid 40 cents for said policy.’ That he made a hit, ani Green then refused to pay the amount due. He afterwards applied toa Mr. Morton, who told him “he was a mud head,” an! that heoughtto go and get his money. He went again, and Green told him that he had no money, and that witness could get it when hecould. On the strength ofthis refusal to pay up, Brinkrough entered complaint.— The indictment charged that the policy was given inthe Providence and Delaware lotteries,and also that cne policy was for $5 and the other for $20, Brinkrough stated that the insurance wasin the Providence and Alexandria lot- teries, and also that he obtained an :nsurance for $20 on each. The defence objected to the evidence offered, as the slip of paper containing the numbers iusured, presented no evi- dence of the lotteries in which the policy was made. ‘The Court allowed the evidence to go to the jury, who returned a verdict of guilty, after a short censideration of the case, and Green was ordered to a:tend on Friday for e. Trial of Thomas Stevens.—This man, indicted for bur- glary-in the third degree, for entering the hardware store Of Spiess & Co. onthe 11th of September last, in company with Francis and Thomas Thomas, convicted and een- tenced to Sing Sing, and George Morton, was then put upon his trial. The circumstances of the burglary were itted by defence, and they proved by Mrs. Becket, that a pearl handled knife that had been stolen from the and found afterwards in the cell in which Stevens was confined, given to him by Francis Thomas on the night of kis arrest. The prisoner was defended by C. W. Terhune, Esq. who succeeded in obtaining an acq: tal for his client. Assault and Battery.—William Evans, a Welchman, was then put upon his trial for assaulting and beatin; Henry Williams, a Welchman, on the 24th of July, ani breaking his hat, Williams also stated that he was beaten on the 22d of July, and several other times by Evans and others. The defence stated that the parties were both Welchmen, and had been engeged as runners for several transportation lines to obtain passengers to send te the West. The disturbance took place while they were en- gaged in endeavoring to secure some Welch passengers who had arrived from Europe. Several other runners testified that Williams mobbed and assaulted Evans, and the reault of the evidence was that the whole affair was a sort of general dog fight among the parties. The jury re- turned a verdict of not guilty. There are several other indictments against him and others, which will be tried on Monday next. The Recorder stated that these trans- actions had become so common, that in case conviction followed, the Court should make an example that would tend to prevent such scenes in future. Forfeited Recognizances.—Alfred Wattles, of Hudson, in this State, who was indicted on the 6th of May for obtaining g1314 worth of goods at various times gur- ing the last y from the firm of al, Sim; io Knappyof this city, hy false pretences, not cin Fecogn! % W.

He wasseen to take the trunk from the house by two women, who reside near the house of Burns.

The successful drama of the ‘‘ Dragon Knight,” and the favorite plays of ‘‘ Open House,” ‘“ Teddy the Tiler,” and “Fairly Hit and Fairly Missed,” form a host of attractions, which cannot fail of securing an overflowing house. Tue Crrcus.—Respectable prices ensure respectable audiences, The elegant entertainments given in the arena of the Bowery Amphitheatre are visited by the elite of the city as well as by every body having the smallest pretensions to taste. The price of admissionto the dress circle of this beautiful place of amusement is low enough to mect the exigencies of the times, and just high enough to prevent its becoming a rendezvous for tag-rag and bob- tail. Family seats may be secured at the box office for any number of persons. {1G A host of ladies, gentlemen, and children visited the American Museum during the day yesterday, to see the wonderful little Dwarf, and as day visiters are admit- ted the same evening free, the lecture room was well filled last night. Barnum has fairly ostonished the public this time. He has got the most extraordinary and wonder, ful living curiosity ever seen or heard of, and the little gentleman bears evidences of his sge that there is no dis. puting. His weight is but fifteen pounds, and his height one fvot and ten inches—faots, which of course, every person can see upon examination. The beautiful trans pareney in front of the Museum, gives his size exactly. ‘The Lecture Room, since the new scenery is completed, is apertect gem, and the performauces by the Lilliputian Family, Miss Hood, Mir. Sherman, and Celeste, are rich, chaste, and diversified, OG POST FACTUM NULLUM CONSILIUM.—This is an old Roman adage and applies with as mach force to Peters’ Cough Lozenges as any thing in the world can well do. “Alter the deed is done there is no need of con sultation,” is a fair translation, and a such shoald be re- garied.

Dear Bennerr :— Yesterday afternoon the Front ‘street boards were occupied by about fifty dubutants, consisting of doctors, horses, printers, lawyers, shoemakers and play actors. The cause of so many firet appearances at one time was simply this: Many persons who had attended the theatre during the week and had witnessed the apparently super-human efforts of Monsieur Paul, considered the whole thing a spe- cies of slight of hand, or downrightgammon, eo the management invited the medical faculty and such citizens as were disposed to visit the theatre on Saturday afternoon, on the stage, and there ex- amine: for themselves; well, everything was ex- amined by Professor Dunbar, one of our most dis- tinguished men in the cause of science and medi- cine, aud the Monsieur went down to his work and performed precisely the same feats as he did in New York some weeks ago. The only difference between. this and a regular performance was, the spectators had not to pay fifty cents a piece. Last evening Signor Nagle gave his farewell con- cert, which was patronized by the élite of the city. The great violinist appeared to excel himself on this particular occasion, and performed many of most difficult pieces with a precision, rapidity and variation of tone which 1 never imagined the violln capable of producing. gem, of the evening was the variations on “nel cor piew non migento,” a favorite thema of Catali This masterpiece brought out every. style of fing: ing and playing, of which the pie His arteggio is truly beautifut, but every thing was executed in such a style bordering om perfection that it is unnecessary to particularize. Monsieur Mouritt, a finished tenor of the French school, cang the barcarole fr Maeaniello, (Be- hold how Brightly} and the Marseilles Hyaa—this he substituted for the scena commencing the second act of Herold’s Zampa, a change by no means suited to the taste of the dudience he was singing to.

Particulars to-morrow. Case or Arexanner.—Judge Barton delivered the charge of the Court in the case of Milton J. Alexander yesterday morning. It occupied about one honr and a half in its delivery. It was a cleer, able, and important charge, but rather, according to general import, leaning in favor of the prisoner. No verdict had been rendered at five o’clock P.M. The crowd around the Court house was immenee, and great excitement prevailed. Vimatnta.—The House of Man orgy this State passed a resolution on Thursday last, instructing its committee on courta of justice to briag in a bill fix- ing the first day of January next as the period at whisk the next Gubernatorial term of office in that Commonwealth shall commence, instead of begin- ‘ning on the 8ist of March ensuing. Ouro River.—On Tuesday evening last there was ten feet of water in the channel at Pittsburg, and the river was still rising.
