NEW YORK HERALD. ew York, Wednesftay, March 8, 1843, ee ‘The Prospect—Spring Business, The prospect of a revival of business in the open- ing of the spring, has not been se geod in ten years as it seems to be at present. The country is full of produce—the currency is almost rectified throughout the Union—specie is very abundant, and paper money scarce—the ex changes were never so well balanced and equalized —the imports ef foreign goods are few—and the stock of such goods on hand not great. There has been a struggle, to be sure, but it has now dwindled down to a gentle ripple, caused by the natural move- ment towards an adjustment of prices and values, on the basis of a sound currency. ‘Who, then, makes all the cry of “ hard times Tt comes trom those who were speculators—who want to live on the industry of others—who have just taken the benefit—who thirk the times very hard, if they cannet have a bottle of champaigne every day. The real business people are quiet, in- dustrious, doing well—and will be the leading mem- bers of our city twenty yearshence. Blue devils, begone ! Mr. Emerson’s Lecture on “ Pouitics,” at var TABERNACLE, LAST NiGHT.—Mr. Emerson is decidedly one of the most agreeable lecturers with which we are blessed at present. His elocu- tion is graceful and aceurate, his gesticulation chaste and dignified, and his style is as_melliflaous as a respectably sober runaing brook. He affects the manner of Thomas Carlyle, and is indeed about the very best of the imitators of that acute, philo- sophical, but quaint writer. The subject of Mr. Emerson’s lecture last night was “ Politics”—a sufficiently comprehensive one, at all events. None of the leading views of the lecturer struck us as particularly eriginal, although his illustrations were oftennew, and marked by a characteristic simplicity which in no ways, we need hardly say, diminished their clearness and eftect.— After some lengthened aad eloquent remarks on the theories of politics, and the present as- pect of society, Mr. Emerson went on to speak of the grounds on which he founded his hopes of the regeneration of the world, and the universal establishment of a just and rational system of politics. That consummation depended on the working out, to the full extent, of those divine prin- ciples which Mr. Emerson regards as existing in our nature, and which constitute the instrumen- tality that is to control, with such a large influence of good, the destinies of the world. Mr. Emerson glanced at the present triumphant progress of intel- lectual light, and the rapid spread of true notions of civil government, as proofs that the ‘‘ movement” had commenced which is final'y to introduce the political millennium,when selfishness and ambition, and the lust of power, and all political devils will be sent to the bottomless pit, and the reign of love, justice, disinterested benevolence, and the loftiest kind of humanity will commence. Well, after all, Mr. Emerson has in fact happened on the truth, albeit he has chosen to dress it up in his ewn way. It haseverbeen the great doctrine of our creed, that our nature is yet, by its own dis. enthralled and educated energies, to attain a higher anda juster elevation; and that the “ new era” which sages and seers have, from the eldest days of the world, predicted, and for the coming of which our race, even in thedarkest times, has never ceased to long, will come through the agency ef increased knowledge, enlarged experience, and celestial wis- dom. And the evidences of the approaching ad- vent of that better period, are neither few nor ob- scure ; nay, so apparent are they, that ignorance and prejudice even in the darkness of their unbelief, are awaking to the conviction, orat least suspicion, that the latter day of light and liberty is coming. RusseEc.’s Puanerar:uM—AnppreEsses, &c. at Nr- BLO’s GARDEN Last Evenine.—This stupendous piece of machinery has been removed to Niblo’s Garden tor exhibition a shert time. The proceeds are to go to increase the Library of the Institute. The meet- ing last evening was the first of its exhibition at thisplace. The entertainments of the evening were introduced by Gen. Tallmadge, the able and inde- fatigable President of the American Institute, in a shor but pertinent address upon the general objects of the Institute, and particularly calling attention to the magnificent piece of machinery now in exhibi- tion, and the great objects which it illustrates. He concluded with introducing to the audience the Hon. Mr. Meigs,who made a very eloquent address, in which he touched upon various astronomical to- pics. After Mr. Meigs had concluded, Gen. Tallmadge introduced to the audience Prof. Gouraud, already so well known to the public. The lecture of this gentleman, or rather his “ conversation,” as he was pleased to call it, constituted the feature of the even- ing. It wasa rich and highlyjentertaining discourse. These lectures cannot fail to prove attractive and popular, ws Tue Somers Case Berore tue Granp Jury.— On Monday, the Grand Jury of the U. S. Court heard an argument against taking up this case, from Ogden Hoffman, the U. S. District Attorney. The jury took a vote,and stood 12 to 11 against taking it up. To-day we learn that another movement will be made—and the Somers boys will be brought up for examination. The law is said to be this:—The Grand Jury have a power to indict, notwithstanding that the same offence may be before any other court of concurrent jurisdiction, and before its decision be given. If the Court Martial were to terminate their proceedings,and give a decision at once, this would take it out of the civil courts Caancz oy Murper at Ssa.—This affair, as published yesterday in some of the papers, turns out to be an entire misrepresentation Complaint was made at the United States Marshal’s effice by some of the crew of the brig Careline Pratt, charging Cap- tain Rice, of that vessel, with wilful murder, in pre- venting assistance being furnished to one of the crew who had fallen overboard, by which he was drowned. The name of the seaman was Joseph Harvey. The complaint alleged, that the circum. stance occurred at sea during aclear day, on the recent voyage of the vessel from Apalachicola—that the man swam, but the captain would not allow the boat to be lowered, or the vessel to be hove to.— The mate, who was examined before his honor Judge Betts, tells a totally different story. He says the wind blew very hard— there were but four men on board the vessel, and that it would have required them all to have manned the boat—that the boat vould not have lived in the sea, it waseo heavy, but must have swamped. They did put about, gnd make efforts to save the man, but without success. Capt. Rice has, however, been held to bail in $560. REMARKABLE CELESTIAL PHRNoMENON.—A very extraordinary appearance was noticed in the west- ern horizon |ast night. It was in the form of a broad belt of light, which extended from the hori- zon, midway towards the zenith, at an angle of about forty-five degrees. The Millerites in this sity and Brooklyn were thrown into terrible con- valsions, and several of the female disciples almost expired in hysterics. Can any philosopher give us light on this matter 7 Removata rom Orvick.—We understand that Captain Tyler will begin very soon to make his re- movals in these parte—and among the first, we hear that Ogden Hoffman, Esq., District Attorney, and Silae M. Stillwell, U.S. Marshal, will be among them. Whyse? We wave THis DAY Pusvisnen, an American sto ry of real life, by T. S.

Hiamty Iuronrant ap Cunios From Nauvoo, TaE CarrraL or THe Mormon Emrms.—We re- ceived by yesterday's mail a whole batch of des- patches from Nauvoo, the beautiful City of God, in the far west—the head quarters of the new revela- tion—the stake-ground of Joe Smith, the Prophet and Mahomet of these latter days. _ : This intelligence is highly intereeting, particularly when taken in connexion with the movements ot Father Miller, the millennium prophet here—as well @s with the movements of Emerson, Greeley, Bris- bane, and the transcendental prophets of the new philosophical revelations in the Atlantic States. Joe Smith, the Prophet, and his beautiful and ta- lented wife, Emma, are living in the greatest hap- piness. Joe is prophesying and Emma singing— and all Nauvoo listening with rapture and astonish- ment. There has been great rejoicing in Nauvoo, on the deliverance of the Prophet from the Missouri Philistines. A splendid feast was given by the Pro- phet, and congs sung on the occasion. It appears also that Nauvoo is flourishing most ra- pidly—ehowing that Joe’s social system, mixed as it is with religion and revelation, is much more en- ergetic and practical than Fourier’s famous system, as taught by the transcendentalists in this region.— Nauvoo and the Mormons have made a fresh start in the world. The Prophet has also had, since his recent trou- bles, a new revelation—a vision—a prophesy—in rhyme, which is very curious, and which we annex. In enthusiasm, fancy, originality, and power, this *« Vision” is equal to any lecture that ever was giv- en by Emerson, or Brownson, or any other new- light philosopher. It may lack in grammar—but what is grammar? In its practical operation, it en- tirely outstrips and outgenerals not only the Fou- rierites, but aleo Father Miller and his calculations. Joe Smith shows most conclusively , that the millen- nium began with the propagation of Mormonism, or the flight from Missouri inte Illinois—and that the New Jerusalem is synonimous with the Nouvoo.— To the transcendertalists—the Fourierites, and all new-light philosophers, Joe also shows that the so- cial system can only be improved by building on religious feelings—and that the progress of huma- nity is only to be effected by the progress of reli- gious impulses and sentiments, however fanciful they be. ‘We understand that the Mormons now number 50,000 men, women, and children; of which number, nearly 25,000 reside at Nauvoo. They deny the charges of indecency and immorality made against them—and assert that they are moral and tempe- rance men, out-and-out. The following extracts are the most curious th:ngs in the literature of the day. On such materials a new religion—a new so- cial system—a new empire—is rising inthe West : _ State or Navvoo.—The whole time, and atten- tion of the saints in this place since their beginning have been, in consequence of persecution and ban- ishment from Missouri, devoted to opening new farms, building habitations, and to supplying them- selves with food. They have consequently paid but little attention as yet, to the rai-ing of sheep and to the manufacturing of such articles of domestic ap- parel as are indispensable in a new country; and the consequences are, that we are deficient in this res- pect. We have lands, we have houses, and an abundance of provisions; and we recommend to all such as anticipate selling their possessions in the East, and emigrating to this place, that they bring with them all the wool in the place—all the domes- tic flannel ; and all the full cloth; common cassi- mers and satinetts, which they can procure. Pro- perty may be sold in the East, in these hard times, for such articlesat a much better lay, than it possi- bly can be sold for, in money ; and in this place, these articles may be exchanged for lands, provi- sions, and labor, just about as advantageously as for money, and that too at an advanced pride from prime cost, sufficient to warrant transportation. But if money can be obtained in the East for property, it Oem be in some respectsa little better, and should be preferred. Yet, in these times, we must so arrange our affairs, that the scarcity of pases Co not hin- der the gathering of the people, or of building up the kingdomof God. — And again, sheep in this place stand next to mo ney, and we hope our brethren in the East will use their utmost exertions to send and to bring all the sheep into this country which they consistently can; and if you cannot sell your property for money, sell them for sheep or wool, and forward them on here, thatthe rams of Nebaioth may minister unto us, and that domestic economy may receive that pa- tronage which will protect us from the chilling blast of winter, and adorn our fathers, our mothers, our wives, and our children with the beauty and work- manship of their own hands. Sheep may be driven to this place from as far East as the State of Ohio, and as far to the South asthe southern part of Kentucky, provided they be driven slowly and by careful and attentive boys or men. It they be driven in the spring before shear ing, particular care must be taken not to overheat them by driving. It will cost but little to get them here; for after grass begins to grow in the spring, they will pick along by the way, and on the prairies nearly as much ae they will require. Also our brethren in the South will do well to send or bring raw cotton. There are many families in this place who can manufacture this article to ‘ood advantage. I hope alse, that all the brethren ere will raise, each a piece of flax this year. By a little exertion the seed may be procured in time. Let such brethren as live anywhere within this State who have flax seed, consecrate it to the tem- ple, and forward it as soon as possible to the Temple committee, that the brethren here may obtain it from them for their labor on the Temple. How beautiful it would be for our young girls to be instructed ad their mothers how to spin and to weave, and when they come to be married, how very comfortable it would be to have a fine quantity of good sweet white linen. Therefore, mothers, get your wheels ready, and tell your daughters that they are the old {ashioned piano, and let theirears be charmed with the pleasing notes of zeem—zeez— zeez. T hope that none of the Saints will be discouraged from coming here on account of the tales of slan- derers, and of apostate wicked men and women, for Ican assure the Saints from a careful inquiry and strict observation of circumstances since I arrived here, that apostate renegadoes have made “ lies their ng J and under falsehood haye hid them- selves.” But the time is near when lying and slan- dering tongues will be silent, and sink under the just contempt of an abused public, while truth and virtue will be exalted and shine forth in all their beauty and loveliness. Great Cetesration.—The following beautiful verses were written and sung, as will be seen from their reading, on the occasion of Joseph Smith’s re- lease from the hands of his persecutors. Mr. Smith and his lady made a feast and invited upwards of fifty of their friends to partake with them —which was indeed a day of conviviality and re- joicing,and might properly be called aday ofjubilee or release.

I will go, 1 will go, to the home of the Saints, Where the virtue’s the value, and life the reward ; But before I return to my former estate 1 must fulfil the mission Ihad from the Lord. 2. Whereiire, hear,O ye heavens, and give ear O ye packers And rejoice ye inhabitants truly again ; For the Lord he is God, and his life never ends, ‘And besides him there ne’er was a Saviour of men. 3. His ways area wonder ; his wisdom is great ; The extent of his doings, there’s nonecan unveil ; His purpoees fail not ; from age unto age He stills the same, and his years never fail. 4. His throne is the heavens, his life time is all Of eternity now, and eternity then ; His union is power, and none atays his hand— The Alpha, Omega, for ever: Amen. 6. For thus saith the Lord,-in the spirit of truth, Tam mercitul, ‘ious, and unto those That fear me, and live for the life that’s to come ; My delight is to honor the saints with repose ; 6. That serve mein righteousness true to the end ; Eternal ’s their glory, and great their reward ; Vilsurely reveal all my mysteries to them— The great hidden mystries in my kingdom stor’d— 7. From the council in Kolob, to time on the earth. And for ages to come unto them I will show My pleasure and will, what my tte will do; Eternity’s wonders they truly shall know. 8. Great things of the future I’ll show unto them, Yea, things of the vast generations to rise ; For their wisdom and glory shall be very great, And their pure understanding extend to the skies; 9. And before them the wisdom of wise men shall cease. And the nice understanding of prudent ones fail ! For the light of my spirit shail light mine elect, ‘And thetruth is so mighty ’t will ever prevail. 10. And the secrets and plansof my will l’ll reveal ; ‘The sanctified pleasures when earth is renew’d, What the eye hath not seen, northe ear hath yet heard; Nor the heart of the natural man ever hath view’d. 11. I, Joneph, the prophet, in spirit beheld, And the eyes of the inncr man truly did see Eternity sketch’d ina Of what wes, and now 12. Those things which the Father ordained of old, Before the world was, or a6: had run— Through Jesus the Maker and Savior of all; The only begotten, (Messiah) his son. 13. Of whom I besr record, as all prophets have, ‘And the record I bear is the fulness—yea even The truth of the gospel of Jesus—the Christ, With whom I convers’d, in the vision of heav’n. 14. For while in the act of translating his word, Which the Lord in his grace had appointed to me, I came to the Rospel recorded by John, Chapter fifth and the twenty-ninth verse, which you'll see. Which was given as follows :— “ Speaking ofthe resurrection of the dead— Concerning those who shall hear the voice of thesen of man— And shall come forth :-— ‘They who have done good in the resurrection of the et. rt And they who have done evil in the resurrection of the unjust.” 15, I marvel’d at these resurrections, indeed ! For it came unto me by the spirit direct :~ And while I did meditate what it all meant, The Lord touch’d the eyes of my own intellect :— 16. Hosanna forever ! they open’d anon, And the glory of God shore around where I was; And there was the Son, at the Father's right hand, In a fullness of glory, and holy applouse. 17. I beheld ronnd thethrone, holy angels and hosts, And sanctified beings from worlds that have been, In holiness worshipping God andthe Lamb, Forever and ever, amen and amen ! 18. And now afterall ofthe proofs made of him, By witnesses truly, by whom he was known, This is mine, last of all, that he lives; yea, he lives ! Aud sits at the right hand of God, on his throne. 19. AndI heard a great voice, bearing record from heav’n, He’s the Saviour, and only ten of God — By him, hose and through him, the worlds were all made, Even all that career in the hearens so broad. 20, Whose inhabitants, too, from the first to the last, ‘Are sav'd by the very seme Savior ef eurs; , God’s daughters and sons, By the very same truths, andthe very same pow’rs. 21. And I saw and bear record of warfare in heaw’n ; For an angel of light, in raed omy Rebell’d against Jesus, and sought for his pow’r, But was thrust down to woe from his Godified state. 22. And the heavens all wept, and the tears drop’d like dew, That Lucifer, son of the morning, had fell! Oh, alas! The son of Perdition ; the devil of hell! 22, And while I was yet in the spirit of trath, Tl commandment was, write ye the vision all out ; For Satan, old serpent, the devil’s for war ; And yet ‘will encompass the saints round about. 24. And I saw, too, the suff’ring and mis’ry of those, (Overcome by the devil, in warfare and fight. {n hell fire, and vengeance, the doom of the demn’d ; For the Lord said, the vision is further ; se write. 2. For thus saith the Lord, now concerning all those ‘Who know of my power, and partake of the same ; And suffer themselves, tbat they be avercom By the power of Satan ; despising my name ; a weal power, and denying the truth ; ey are they—of the world, or of men, most forlorn, °T were better for them had they never been born ! f wrath, and dishonor to God, i wrath, in the regions of woe, Through the terrifie night of eternity’s round, devil and lrot his angels below : no forgiveness is giv’n, jor the world that’s to come ; With the In this world, For To have denied the spirit of God, After having receiv’d it ; and mis’ry’s their doom. the only begotten of God— And crucify him to themselves, as they do, And openly put himto shame in their flesh, By gospel they cannot repentance renew. 30.

Again I beheld the terrestrial world, In the order and glory of Jesus, go on, °T was not as hurch of the first bora of God, But shone in its place, ag the moon toto thesun. 54. Behold, these are they that have died without law ; The heathen of ages, that never had hope, And thote of the region and shadow of death, ‘The spirits in prison, thet light has brought up. 55. To spirits in prison the Savior once preach’d, ‘And taught them the gospel, with powers afresh ; And then were the living baptie’d for their dead, That they might be judg’d as if men in the flesh. 66. These are they that are hon’rable men of the earth ; ‘Who were blinded and dup’d hy the cunning of men : They receiv’d not the truth of the Savior at first ; But did, when they heard it in prison, again. 57. Not valiaut for truth, they obtain’d not the crown, But are of that glory that’s typ by the moon: They are they, that come into the “Bagreeks Christ, But not to the fulness of God, on his throne. 58, Again I beheld the telestial, as third, ‘The lesser, or starry world, next in its place, For the leaven must leaven three measures of meal, ‘And every knee bow that is subject to grace. 89. These are they that receiv’d not the gospel of Christ, Or evidence, either, that he ever was; Aa the stars are oll dif'rent in glory and light, So differa the glory of these by the laws. 0, Theso are they that deny not the spirit of God, But are thrust down to hell, with the devil, for s As hypocrites, liars, whoremongers and thieves, And stay till the last resurrection begins. 61. Till the Lamb shall have finish’d the work he begun, Shall have trodden the wine press, in fury alone, And overcome all by the pow’r of his might : He conquers to conquer, and save all his own. 62. These are they that receive not a fulness of light, From Christ, in eternity’s world, where they are, Theterrestrial sends them the Comforter, though, ‘And minist’ring angels to happify there. 68. And so the telestial is minister’d te, By ministers from the terrestrial one, As (errestrial is, from the celestial throne ; And the great, greater, greatest seems stars, moon and sun. 64. And thus I beheld, in the vision of heav’n, ‘Tho telestial glory, dominion and bliss, Surpassing the great understanding of men,— Unknown, save reveal’d, in a world vain as this. 6b. And lo, I beheld the terrestrial too, Which excels the telestial in glory and light, In splendor, and knowledge, and wisdom, and joy, lad , andgraces, dominion and might. 66. I beheld the celestial, in glory sublime, Which is the most excellent kingdom that is— Where God, e’en the Father, in harmony reigns, Almighty, supreme, and cternal, in bliss 67. Where the church of the first born in union reside, ‘And they see as they’re seen, andthey know as they're known ; minion and might, Bein ual in power, doi Wah 4 fulness of glory and grace round his throne. is one like the sun ; 68. The glory celesti ‘The glery terrestr’l is ono like the moon 5 The glory telestial is one like the stars, And all harmonise like the parts of a tune. 69. As the stars are all different in lustre and size, So the telestial region is mingled in bliss ; From least unto greatest, and greatest to least, ‘The reward is exactly as promis’d in this. 70. These are they that came out for Apollos and Paul ; For Cephas and Jesus, in all kinds of hope ; For Enoch, and Moses, and Peter, and John ; For Luther, and Calvin, and even the Pope. 71. For they never received the g>spel af Christ, Nor the prophetic spirit that came from the Lord ; Nor the covenant neither, which Jacob once hed ; ‘They went their own way, and they have their reward. 72.

T; farewell. JOSEPH SMITH. Tue Scorrien Concert at THE Apotto Last Nicut.—This was decidedly one of the most bril- liant musical entertainments of the season. Sucha gathering of “the clans” has never been seen in this city. The Saloon was crowded to the doors; every inch of the floor was occupied. Upwards of a hun. dred persons went away, finding it utterly impoesi- ble to obtain admittance. The Misses Cumming were greeted with most enthusiastic applause, and fully sustained the very high reputation which pre- ceded their appearance here. They are indeed most charming vocalists, and their brilliant execu- tion of the choice songs and ballads of their native land drew down thunders of applause from one of the most crowded and respectable audiences we ever saw assembled in any concert room in this city. Mr. Clirehugh was in excellent voice, and was raptu- rously applauded. We regret that we cannot now give a more panicular description of the entertain. ment, but as it isto be repeated next week, we will have another opportunity of offering a more critical notice of the singing of the Misses Cummings. Lrers.ative Procerpinas.—As usual,Pomeroy & Co. have given us Albany papers in advance of the mail. We take the following from the Argus of Monday :— The two houses are engaged in active discus sions—the Senate on the bill in relation to the New York and Erie Railroad—and the House on the bill to change the mode of appointing Bank Commir- ners. othe Senate on Saturday passed, by a strong vote, (16 to 10) a resolution for an adjournment of the le- gislature on-the 28th inst. Tue Eartuquaxe In Porto Rico.—We learn from Capt. Lee, of the Mohican, hich arrived yester- day from Guayama, tthe shock of the earth- quake on the 8th ult. was likewise felt at that place. We learn also that the crops on the island are very ehort and backward. American provisions were abundant. More or tue Earraquake.—Capt. Brown, of the Chester, from Boston, at St. Johns, P. R onthe 1ith ult., reports that on the 8th, when in lat. 21, ex- serienced a heavy shock of am earthquake. Tre Great Wesrern.—She is now in her twen- ty-fifth day. She undoubtedly left England on the lith nit, and has been detained at Madeira, and by the recent westerly winds. City Intelligence. Tug Mituzr Examination was continued yester day in the Grand Jury Room, before Justice Ste- vens. The prosecution called Mrs. Wells, the aunt of Mrs. Miller and wife of Samuel Wells, who tes- tified that she had neverseen the $20,000 note, nor had never heard of it previous tothe decease of her husband. Thatshe had no knowledge of its being destroyed, or its whereabouts at present. Mr. Sid- ney Blackwell, the uncle of Mrs. Miller, was also called for prosecution, and stated that Mr. Charles F. Miller had told him at Little Falls, after the de- cease of Mr. Samuel Wells, that he had the note for $20,000, and expected that he would obtain the mo- ney for itwhen due. Theexamination will be con- tinued this afternoon, at the same place. Potice.—Yesterday was a blank day in the annals of crime at the police offices of our city. ‘e have a racy subject on hand that will be fully dissected and prepared for the eye of the public, at the earli- est opporiunity. Mors oF THE Cxassics In Boston.—We take from the Boston Times of Monday, the following addi- tional particulars of the classical sireet fight in that city:— Our city was thrown into great excitement Saturday af- ternooon, hetween the hours of one and two o’clock, in consequence of a cowhiding scrape in high life, which we lay before our readers, coupled with the rumors which are assigned as having given rise to it. The parties en. geet inthe matter were Doctor Hawes of thiscity, and rofessor Lovering of Cambridge College. The former acted the part of cowhider on this cccasion, and the latter was obliged to act the part of the cowhided the best way hecould. The rencontre took place at the corner of Wash. ington and Winter streets, at atime and place when this thoroughfare ie most thi with the fashionable and elite of this city. $The attack commenced, and the Doctor laid on his blows with an assiduity and adexterity which left no room to doubt his ability at bleeding. The Profes- sor, taken by surprise, received a number of cuts before he became self-possessed, and at first showed an evident inclination to cut his friend ; however, he finally gave wp this notion, and determined upon the modus operandi of thumping.’ They clinched each other by the hair, and ths cowhide having been broken by the heavy blows of the Doctor, the parties proceeded on the manual labor Ri cece ora By this timo several hundred peo- ple had assembled, and the affair assumed the appear- ance of a regular set-to, rather than a matter of chastise. ment. Blows were exchanged on both sides, but with very unequal advantage. The doctor appeared to be the best skilled of the two, and seemed to know better how to direct his blows. In the midst oi the battle, ene of the parties made a misstep and fell, but maintaining his hold upon his antegonist, he drew him after him, both falling and rolling through alarge mud puddle. However, the regained their feet, and the fight was resumed. At lengt several gentlemen i d the affair was brought toaconclusion; and the Doctor satisfied with his surgical operation of cutting up made hi: way out of the crowd, having first introduced his antagonist as follows:— “Gentlemen! This is Professor nee of Cambridge College. He has insulted my sister, and it is for this rea- son that I have cowhided him.” The Professor’s ace was in asad iplight, and we presume that he was very severely hurt Heis a man about thirty-five yearsof age. Doctor Hawes, we presume, bout twenty five The reason for this hay i Be lady existed on his part, and that it was reciprocated on her's. He visited the house regularly until of lete, when the family to their surprise ascertained that he peid atten. tions to another lady, of, if ible, still more respectabili- ty. The young lady, Mr. llawes’s sistor, (the daughter of Prince Hawes, aweaithy merchant ofthis city) felt her- self injured by his conduct, and her brother, who looked ‘upon it inthe light ofadownright insult to the whole of hie family, resorted tothe cowhids es the surest method of expressing his resentment. There were other reports floating about, but we believe that the one we have given comes nearest tothe truth. Whether or not any further steps will be taken by the parties no one knows. The au- thorities ought to interfere and bind them both over. Arrican Squapron.—It is’ now said that the fri- gate Macedonian, fitting out at Norfolk, is to be the flag-ship of this equadron. The Saratoga sloop- of-war isto be one of the squadron. She is a new vessel, of great beautyand efficiency, and is daily expected from Portsmouth. There are to be seve- ral smaller vessels, in order to more extended cruiz- ing along the coast. Avyorner Launcu.—The packet ship Liverpool, of 1150 tons burthen, intended for Woodhull & Min- turn’s new line of packets, will be launched from the ship yard of Brown & Bell, toot of Houston street, East River, on Thursday, 9th instant, at one o’clock. This ship will be commarded by Captain John Eldridge, and is the largest merchantman ever built in this city. Beauties oF Mituerism.—Every day something occurs showing the beauties of Millerism. Here is one of the many scenes that are continually taking place. [From the Georgetown, D. C. Advocate.] “A disgraceful scene, we understand, ‘ook place last evening, at a meeting which had assembled to hear two protessors of Millerism, at the public school room on Beall street. A hubbub was gotten up,and the men pelted with rotten egge, apples, &c., and many females, improperly as they may have been being present, they were of course, under the ne- cessity of speedily getting out of the way as best they could.” Errects oF THE GALE IN THE (iULF.—The gale of September last was terribly severe in the Gulf of Mexico. Read the annexed :— It appears that in the great gale in the Gulf of Nexico, in September last, three vessels of war were lost, as they were in the Gulf at the time, and have not since been heard from. They were the English brig of war Victor, the French brig of war Dunois, and the Texian schooner of war San Anto- nio. Nearly or quite three hundred men perished with these vessels. The Dunois was from Havana for France, the Victor from Vera Cruz for the West reais and the San Antonio from Galveston to New rleang. AFFAIRS with Mexico.— We take the following paragraph, relative to our treaty with Mexico, from the National Intelligencer, of Monday :— Among the Executive proceedings in the Senate. towards the close of the Session of Congress, was the ratification of a convention latel concluded at the city of Mexico between the Diplomatic Repre- sentatives of the'United States and that Govern- ment, the terms of which are said to be honorable and eligible to both nations. As the ratification of the Treaty will doubtless be exchanged in this city, va may expect to see it soon officially promulga- ted. Reuicious Inre.iicence.—Rev. Mr. Chapin, of Charlestown, has received a call from the Fourth Universalist Society in New York; it 1s understood, however, he will decline the invitation. Fast Day 1n New Hampsuire.—Gov. Hubbard, of New Hampshire, has appointed Thursday, the 6th of April next, to be observed throughout that State as a day ot fasting and prayer. U. S. Senator rrom Maing.—Gey. Fairfield has been elected to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of the Hon. Ruel Williams.

Cnatuam Tukatre.—The new play entitled the “ Collegians,” having been triumphantly successful, isannounced for repetition this evening. It is an unusually interesting play, the incidents and drama- tic situations highly effective, and above all, the performers themselves embrace a great amount of talent, and give the piece with extraordinary correct- ness andeffect. Mr. Thayer appears in his favorite character of My Lord Duke, in the popular farce of “ High Life Below Stairs,” which, with the amusing performances of the Kentucky Minstrels, and other novelties, are sufficient to secure an overflowing house. {iG The best music to be heard in this city, is that of the famed Melodian, at the American Museum. The overtures of La Norma, William Tell, Der Freichutz and the Hugonots, are played by complete machinery, with all the beautiful effect of a fally appolated orchestra. At the performances this afternoon aiid evening, at 2 and hal; ast 7, will be given the grand scriptaral Diorama of the Delugeya scene of sublime iliusion. All the performan- es are curious, interesting, or amusing, in the highest \egree—better and more various, we venture to say, then can be found in the werld for the same money. BY T SOUTHERN MAIL.

Marcu 7.—Sentence of James Shepherd.—Judge Betts sentenced this man, who was convicted the other day of counterfeiting the dimes of the United States,to five yeart’ hard labor in the State Prison, and to pay a fine of one dol- lar. We believe this is the last of the Shepherds. Circuit Court, Before Judge Kent. Manon 7.— George W. Pomeroy vs. John H. Cornell.— ‘Tnis is an action of slander, growing out of th= following circumstances :—In the of 1841, two counterfeit checks were by Mr.Cornell, cashier of the Mecha- nice’ Banking Association. Certain circumstances, unne- cessary here to detail, served to picion in Mr. Cor- nell’s mind upon the plaintiff in this suit as the forger.— And in pursuing the investigation before the police and elsewhere, Mr. Cornell representea that Mr. Pomeroy was the individual who had forged thechecks. It turn- ed eut that Mr. Pomeroy was not the individual, and Mr. Pomeroy jndged himself inhured by the representations of Mr. Cornell, and brings this action for damages. ‘The case is still on. Court of Common Pleas, Betore Judge Ingraham Marcu 7.—Stephen Vail vs. Wm. G. West.—This was an action on a note. The plaintiff proved the note made by defendant to the amount of $270. The defence was that the consideration was for a share of a joint stock company, fer the sale in village lots of a farm in New Jersey. The shares were not all taken—S6 shares—13 taken at $260 a share, $50 down. Vail represented himself and note for balance as owner and trustee for the subscriber, but after. wards sold the land for farming ceiponrs with Abraham e entglbe- 2) really owned 4 shares of said farm. The village Besiect fell through, and defendant claims that censideration failed, and requires the return of $60 paid at the time of subscribing. Verdict for detendant. Peter Wilson for plaintiff, E, C. Delavan and A. Thomp- son for deiendant. Emeline Delatrush vs. William Renwick and James . Cassidy.—This ig an action of trespass, brought to recover sare against the defendant for having made a prema- ture levy undera Iandlord’s warrant, no rent being due by the plaintiffat the timeof the levy. The plaintiff oc- cupied a part of the same house with the defendant Cassi- dy, at 25 Renwick st.; Cassidy being in arrears with his landlord (Renwick,) he issued a warrant and made a levy on all the property, including that of the plaintiff; but by an amicable arrangement, her goods were , she having paid her rent at the expiration of the previous quarter. In the middle ofthe following quarter the plain- i@ removed her goods, and the defendant Cassidy, fearful of losing his rent for the running quarter, made a lev under the warrant issued against himself, which was still unsatisfied; the plaintiffs goods were sold at auction—she contending no rent was due at the time of the levy, and for that she asks for damoges. Burr & Benedict for plaintiff, and N.P. O’Brien and A. D. Soper for defendant. General Sessions. Before Recorder Tallmadge, Judge Lynch, and Alder- men Gedney and Smith. James R. Whiting, Esq , District Attorney. Marcu 7.—Jonw Dowovan, tried yesterday on ach of petit larceny, and convicted, was tried again on ano- ther charge for stealing a pair of pants worth $5 from Dennis Mahon, and also convicted. The Court sentenced him to six months in the Penitentiary on each conviction, making one year. —Mary Shepherd, the mother of all the coun - hepherds now in the State Prison, who was convicted on Monday night of passing a $3 counterfeit note of the Fxchange Bank of Mass., was sentenced to the Sing Sing State Prison forseven years and one month, where she will find her son Charles and daughter-in-law Honora. Another Cownterfeiter disposed of —Jacob O’Brien alias apspurious note of the Rhodes was tried for “ Blackstone Canal Bank,”on A. Andrews, of 439 Green- wich street The passing of the note was proved, and when the accused was searched, six dollars in silver was found in his agin He attempted to ve agood cha- racter, and the District Attorney for the purpose of up: setting this branch of his defence, called officers A. M. C. Smith, Gilbert F. Hays and King, who testified that he was not only anold State prison bird, but of notorious bad reputation in every particular. The jury fonnd him guilty, and the Court packed him oft {or Sing Sing,forfthe term of seven years and six months. French Dolph, alias George Brooch, was tried for pick- ing the pockets of Stewart Mollan of a wallet containing $7 in bank notes, convicted and sentenced to the Peniten- tiary for six months. The Court, in passing the sentence, regretted that it was not in their power to extend the time to aterm of years, as they conceived the offence as the meanest, most contemptible and sneaking of all in the calendar of crime. William Long, one of the numerous descendants of the celebrated Lucy Long, and of that cast of countenance classified among the fashionables as “ colored,” was tried on acharge ‘rand larceny, defended by counsellor Strang, and aequitted as a matter of course. A Rery was called in the case of Charles Pearce, indicted for an assault and battery ox Ann Murphy, and the Court then adjourned until 11 o’clock this morning, when the case will be tried. I 0G@- TO THE OWNERS OF REAL AND LEASE- HOLD ESTATES in the City of New York :— Fe.vow Citizens—Your attention is respectfully asked to the course of the “ Sun newspaper” in referenceto your interests as Landlords, and your rights as men. Year after year are the editorial columns of thet paper directed to the depreciation and damage of your property, by assertions the most unfounded; but on that very ac. count the best adapted to enlist the passions and resent- ments of the tenant against the landlord. Whatdo we see in those columns daily? Your patronage in the shape of house advertising, filling brim full some of these columns, whilst others are filled up with all the efforts of the Edito- rial d ments, to depress and undervalue the very tee adv. But is this zeal all perfectly disinterested Isself entirely lost sight of 7 Oh no, that were a little too much.

Which filches our pockets, whilst it fills Mr. Beach’s. Must we, then, by our advertising pa- tronege, continue to keep that paper in a position where ite terest, in the cause of the poor tenant may be more then questionable? Shall we continue to uphold with pene mg which is our money, the rightof any press to abandon its high prerogatives—its high duties, for the purpose of attacking our private rights, and the just security of those rights? I appreh not ; there is no reaton why we should. Ifthe circulation of the Sun be urged, the anewer it, that your age has mainly con- tributed to that circulation ; and only let us determine that our advertising patronage shall be given cleewhere ; toafriend, or toa neutral, but not to an enemy ; and wo will soon see that the patronage and circulation go toge. ther.
