Tre Tyier Mestine, Seconp Series, IN THE Seventu Warp, To-nigut.—This is the first move- went, seeond series, to ascertain by philosophical snd physical experiment, whether it is possible to organise a Tyler party here—and ‘thus to hold the check over the whigs and locofocos. The spring now opens—the weather is pleasant, and the firet seed is sown. All attempts hitherto made have failed. Under the inspiration caught from John Jones, we make this attempt gratis. It will cost the Captain nothing—not even the break- ing of a promise—for like poor Major Noab,we have not given up a Judgeship worth $2,000, and then ot nothing but empty promises in retura. As a guide to the Tyler men, we give the fellow- ing programme of the present principles of Captain Tyler, as promulgated by John Jenes. They are unchangeable till after the election. Prixcirtes or Joun Trier. Frest. No Bank. The President has vetoed two Bank bills, and saved the country from a moneyed despotism, when ‘ali else was lost.—He has proven himself to be An- ti-bank, for he has walked through the fiery furnace of party, with two vetoes and the Constitution in his hands. conn. A Revenue Tariff. The President vetoed the first Tariff bill—conflicting with this principle—and sign- ed the second bill, on the same principle, we presume, that Messrs. Woodbury, Wright, Buchanan, and others of Democratic principles voted for it. Tuinv. No Distribution. The President vetoed two Dills of Distribution— again standing in between the re- publican people and their Federal enemies, when all else ‘was lost, Fourrn. No Abolitionism. The President is from the State of Virginia. : Fier. No public debt, and an economical administra- tion of public affairs, Inthe year 1838 the Federal Gov- ernment was ad istered at a cost of thirty-eight mil- lions’of dollars—in 1842 the Government cost the people twenty millions—(see the various reports {rom the De- partments of the Government for their present almost u paralleled condition of properous and frugal administra- tion ) Sixru. Universal white suffrage,with universal educa- tion. This is the language and the sentiment of Thomas Jefferson. SumMany.—No Bank—a Revenue Tarift—no Distribu- tion—no Abolitionism—a strict construction of the Con- stitution, as by Jefferson—no Public Debt—an economical administration of Public Affairs—and Universal Suffrage, with Universal Education. Here is capital ground to work upon. Come forth, ye “fierce young democracie” in your strength, and organize a corps de reserve to hold the balance of power. A mighty change is at hand, if things go right. The Captain’s mind is unfixed, and some- thing must be done to fix it—also to decide the next election A full report of the meeting to be held in the Seventh Ward to night, will be found in the Herald of to-morrow morning. Mason Noan—AnotHer Cuance —We under- stand from good autherity, that Major Noah has thrown up the Tyler party, and has now come out for Martin Van Buren. The Major has returned to his first love—Van Boren and democracy, after having taken a very amusing voyage round the world of politics, on which he is writing an interesting book. He is pretty savage now upon Captain Tyler, and with some reason too. It seems thatat the solicitation of the Captain, during a visit made by the Major to Washington, about a year ago, he was induced give up his judgeship, worth $2,00 in order to organize the Tyler party,and sta r and paper. After expending a great deal of | Josing 100 pounds of fat in the heat of ght, Captain Tyter has left the Major in the neg- lected his advice—and given him nothing in return. The Major advised the Captain to remove Daniel Webster, to re-organize his cabinet, to call Silas Wright to be his chief adviser—and infuse a large dose of ‘old democracy” into the Custom House and Post Office. The Captain here pro- mised—but has failed to perform, besides leaving the Major high and dry—losing his office as judge, and getting nothing in return. Now all this is very naughty in Captain Tyler, and in consequence thereof, Major Noah is tired of Tylerism, and has returned to his first love, Van Buren and democracy—at least, he says Van Buren is the only man that has any chance to be next President. Seriously, nowever, we certainly think that Captain Tyler has treated Majer Noah rather cavalierly, but during the next two years we expect the Captain may reform and redeem his promises. We'll see. Tre Bart Orens.—The whigs have nominated Robert L. Smith as their candidate for Mayor, and the locofocos Robert H. Morris. Both are capital nominations. In the mean time, both parties are already at work, collecting their forces and preparing for the day of action. It will be a warmly contested election—and if the ‘fierce young democracie” organize on the Tyler ground, to keep the balance of power, they can decide the day. Great fun is expected. Wno ts Governor or Ruope Istanp ?1—This im- portant question is to be discussed and settled in the Tabernacle to-morrow evening, by Eli Moore and Horace Greeley. Can these eminent orators tell us who is the man in the moon? how much cotton cloth it would take to make breeches to the comet? or how long it will be before Fourierism fill the earth with the unities and harmonies ? Ax Important Resutt—rernars.—The election of the Mayor and Corporation, the week after next, in New York, may lay the foundation for a change in the Presidency in 1844. If the whigs succeed, it may cause the triumph of Clay—if the locofocos get the day, it may be that of Van Buren. Tyler alone holds the balance of power in his hands, and may do wonders for himself. Srave Beer.—The controversy between General Cass and Mr. Webster. The treaty is mutually confirmed, and is the international law for several years. Why open another bottle of beer when you have had enough? Wait till you again get thirsty. {> Mr. Uitrenven’s Concert, last night, at the Apollo, was well attended.

He com- menced his lecture by a reference tothe three great divisions of society—the wealthy, who can com- to obey or to labor themselves—the large classes who, although obliged to labor for subsistence, can yet regulate at their own pleasure the hours of toil and of rest—and those who are altogether dependent on labor,and that according as it may be required by the interest or caprice of others. After a hasty sketch of the depressed and suflering condition at the present day, of those who are doomed to the lowest grade ot social servitude, the lecturer proceeded to take an historical survey of the state and condition of the Greek and Roman slaves, and the serfs of the mid- dle ages. He drew a startling picture of their su!- ferings and degradation, and then pointed out with much eloquence how the growing progress of Chris- tianity had emancipated these enslaved masses, and described the manner in which the Church of Rome had aided in this great work of redemption and amelioration. He dwelt at some length on the state of the world on the eve of the Reformation,and represented it as presenting every prospect of the ad- vancing and most glorious progress and happiness of the human race. But that event, he contended, had witnessed a woful obstacle to the advancing tide of social improvements, and was the main cause of the present evils which so afflict the European world, and even threaten the downfall of some of the most powerful nations of the earth. Following out this view, the lecturer proceeded to argue that the chief cause of the depreciation of labor in England, and the consequent destitution of the working classes, was to be found in the non- observance of the Catholic festivals, which he alleged had been originally instituted forthe pur- pose of dimmishing the amount and increasing the value of the labor of those condemned to social ser- vitude. The Catholic nations of the European con- tinent — Belgium— Italy — Spaia— France, which were ever the rivals of England in manu- facturing various products, observed those holydays, which England neglected, and thus gain- ed forty or fitty days inthe year of additional labor, for the same reward, which thisenabled her to out- strip and undersell all her continental competitors. On this ingenious ecclesiastical solution of the pre- sent depressed state of the working classes in Eng- land, and «f the other prominent points in this dis- course, we bave not at present room to comment. give, however, the substance of the lecture, may return on anether ‘occasion to the subjects , when we will enter on some ex- ation soundness and accuracy of the Right Reyerend lecturer's views on the important questions in political economy which he underteok to discuss. Catnouicrry ann ProresrantisM.—The views which we presented the other day, relative to the comparative progress of Catholicity and the “ re- formed faith,” and the explanation which we o!- fered of the rapid strides of the former, end the le- thargic and stationary condition of the latter, have met with confirmation ina quarter which gives ma- nifest evidence of candor and impartiality. The Rev. Dr. Durbin,\President of Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa., a gentleman of liberal sentiments, sound judgment, and great intelligence, and who re- cently made an extensive tour in Europe, and is at present in Palestine, thus writes to his friends, through the columus of the newspapers:”— + Yuare vareruny suaren a system of faith considered in itself, and as an external in- stitution, acting upon society as such, and forming an in. tegral aud necessary part of the government in Catholic countri Thave no doubt— no intelligent Protestant in Europe can doubt—but that Catholicism is gradually re- gaining its ground in Europe, under the direct or indirect patronage of most of the monarchies, beeause they find it a very convenient and powerful means ofcontrolling the mass of the people through the priesthood. In Italv and Austria the’ clergy are in correspondence with the Bishops, and the Bishops with the Minister of Police. Louis Philippe and the Church had no friendship for each other seven years since; now they are in close alliance; and, with a returning sense of religion among the people ofFrance, there is a correspending return of the Church to power. The ceremo: nd decorations of the churches are arranged to suit the state of society, soasto strike and captivate the mass of the people. ‘Thence she is ac- quiring her influence again over two divisions of the com- munity; over kings and rulefs, because they need her asa means of government; and over the mass of the lower orders, because she is so arranged in her exernal cere- monies as to strike and gratify the senses, and #0 adapted by her sacraments, particularly of penance, and her doc- trine of purgatory, as to assure to the ear, after auricular confession, the pardon of sin, and the hope of es- cape in the next world, if not quite successful in this. While in England, she is acquiring great influence, first, by greatly multiplying and expanding her external ma: chinery, such as fine churches and cathedri colleges, and the residence of many missionary priests; secondly, by the strange approximation of many of the clergy of the establishment to what is essential to Catho- licism; but, most of all, by the too equal division of whigs and tories, so as togive thebalance of power, during the last administration, very mueh to the Catholic party rep- resented by Mr. O'Connell ; and when we remember that the religious faith of a Catholic is superior to his political opinions, while, on the contrary, the liberal faith of a Protestant is subordinate to his political opinions, we shall seo the true power and position of the Catholic church in affairs of government where there are popular elections. 1 must in justice add another element of power in which, asa Christian,| rejoice. I refer to the iner «1 morality and respectability of the clergy. While the church quiring power and influence with soverei; and kings, and with the masses of people, the educated and intelligent portion of the community are much better affected towards her than they were fifty or a hundred years ago, considering her purely as a religious institution, invol ving faith and morals simply ; butthey have an invincible aversion towards sm external institution, acting on socieiy as such, because she effectually destroys the hope of liberty, or the spread of liberal principles, which this middle in- telligent class in Europe cherish almost exclusively. ‘The result is, this clase is neutralise! in decidedly Catho- lic countries. and the nobility ng in influence and also in numbers, becau reign fears them and epproximates the people by the intervention of the church, which sympathises with the highest and the low- est portions of the community on the continent, but not with the middie intelligent liberal class. This is the true position of the Catholic church at this time in decidedly Catholic countries, as in Italy and Austria; and imper- c:ptibly increasing in semi Catholic countries, even where the government are Protestant. My remarks do not apply to Russia, Norway, or Sweden, as | have not od them, and scarcely to Spain, in her present agitated con- ition. Dr. Durbin cannot, of course, altogether divest himself of hissectarian feelings, and he views the state of things which he deseribes with his Protes- tant eye-glasses, which somewhat tinge the pros pect with their peculiar hue; buc notwithstanding that, the sentiments of the Doctor are in the main jus', and singularly in unison with those entertained by us respecting the rationale of the present aspect and future prosperity of Catholicity and Protestant- ism throughout the world.

As we reached the Jersey shore, part of the boat where I od, passed the pier; I heard the report of a pistol and saw the flash in the place from whence the report came.

The body being stripped and examined, no other wound was found except that on the back part of the shoulder, corresponding with the hole in the gar- mente; this opening was'small, and circular, slight] regular, or ragged at the mouth. An instrument pat into this opening, ps 4 iu a direction inward and 801 what downward we were about to make a farther ex- amination, objections was made by a friend of the dec-as- ed, and it was concluded to defer the examination until 10 o’cloek next morning.

Thisberng removed, an opening was feund passing throuzh the upper margin of the sixth rib, fracturing the rib. The opening was then traced onward through the lung, entering the pericardium, and entering the lett aa- ricale of te heart.and passing onward to the right of the heart, where a ball was found—such a wound usually fatal.

D., who, I believe, is the author of a work on Veterinary Surgery, opened the care for the defeuce. He said he should lay down the law, aad state the on which the prisoner relies for his defence. He said that young Mercer was of a fragile frame—ef bilious tem- perament—highly nervous—much sfflicted with consti- pation—which leads directly to insanity. In his youth he was afflicted with the’croup. Mr. Browne here went Mercer, pree wen it already. The youngest of the is only eleven years of age When hespokeof reer, the mother, young Singleton the prisoner, wept bitterly. Hesaid that Sarah was mild, modest, an- assuming, but of no great strength of understanding. She has never been to atheatre, nor toa ball room, nor to any other place of public amusement in her life. He gave Hutchinson Heberton a very biack character. Mr.Browne next stated that somewhere about the first of the year Sarah Mercer went to pay a visit tothe house ofa Mr. Os- borne, a house carpenter. He failed, and his wife comnec- ted herself with a woman by the name of Hughes, to keep aboarding house. Mrs. Osborne had some daughters. One of them was sick, and Sarah Mercer and one of the daughters went out to get some grapes which the sick girl thought she could eat. In the street these girls first sew Hutebinson Heberton, who was a fine looking person. Sarah mistook him fora young Spaniard by the name of Bastido. whom she had before seen,and who bears a slight resemblance to Heberton. She addressed him, &c., as we have before related. The nextafternoon, Sarah was sent out on an arrant [errand7] and again met Heberton at the corner of Pine street and Third, as we have before stated. They walked from there to the corner of Pine and Queen street, near where her father lives, which isin Queen st, on thenorth side, a few doors east of Front st. She met him again—when he told her his real name—and made love to her. She was foolishly fascinated with him. We come now toan tant interview between them.

But he was confident her character could not be impeached, aud that any attempt to injure her would recoil upon those who made it. He spent an hour with her in that house, and she finally promised to meet him again, an‘ did meet himagain. And during all this time her pa supposed that she was at her married sistor’s, On the 6th of February some one told t! that their daughter had been seen walking with Heberton. They sent round there to have her come home, but she ran away to Mrs. Pidar’s, a house of bad repute. Her friends could no where find her. Singleton became deeply in- terested in finding his sister. On the 7thof Febrnary Heberton was arrested and taken to the office of Alder- man Mitchell. On that night, through ‘he aid of Mre, Jar, Sarah was restored to her friends. That night she slept with her mother, and on that night her mother got from her the fatal secret. The next morning Singleton discovered all—he heard it from her own lips. He be. came bewildered—reason tottered, and fell from its throne —and Singleton was an insane man—totally wnconscions of right or wrong. He several times attempted to take the life of hisewn sister withapistol. But her friends rotected her. Overtures of marriage were proposed with eperten, which he refused, and Singleton became mad. He roamed the streets, imagining that a voice was con- tinually dinging in his eare—“Kill him! kill him! kill him !” ‘The Court here adjourned for dinner.
