The first sec- tion of the statute would then, seem to favor that interpre. tation. Afterwards, in another statute, it prescribes the oath that the splicant party must make, and then the assive tense is used— expects to be made a pee fering evidently from the other ex ‘ion which implies that he makes himeelf a party. Then in the law of 1813 from which this statute scems to have been modelled, the expreszicy 1s, where a person “ expects to be made,” as it the making were to be compulsory. So that the latter part of the statute seems opposed to any person but a de- fendant taking advantage of this statute. The reason of the statute was that a man should not be taken unawares. A man might expect to have @ suit commenced against him when all his witnesses had died or left the country. ‘A man in possession of an estate might have an adversa waiting till some i it witness would be removed, then to commence ainst him. But if aman have any rights himself he can go on with their vindication immediately, therefore the reason of the statute seems to apply more toa defendant than another party. My n ind has not, however, been relieved from all doubt on the matter. If satisfied that Mr. Bennett ought to be examin- ed, and he refuses, my only course would be to commit him. The imprisonment in such a case is one whose li. mits do not seem to have any particular termination. Even the habeas corpus could not relieve him. No bank- rupt law or any other could release him. Now that is ra. ther a serious matter,to subject a citizen to such an impri- sonment. J shall therefore again adjourn this case. ‘The case was then adiourned until Thursday next.

Movements 1n THE Granp WALL sTREET MuNa- Ger1e:-—There was great doings and great excite- ment in the new Board ef Brokers yesterday, in the Exchange, generally known as the Wall street Menagerie. Two active, healthy bears were turned out of their cages and killed off in the course of the morning, besides the entrance of three unknown animals, and alive lion, making four in all. Stocks went up amazingly, and the board cleared $200 by the ex- change of animals. Among the new, admissions wee Mr. Borrowe, whilome of the old board, but strange to say our venerable friend of 1835 and 6, the Hon. Tom Carpenter, was rejected. If the new board don’t reconsider this vote, and admit Napo- leon, they will hear again from this quarter, in tones of thunder. Pruck in Matne.—Governor Kavenaugh has ordered an investigation into the recent British out rage on the borders of Maine. Mong or tae Fresuet.—Thirty newly convert- ed Universalists were baptised at Belfast, Maine, last Sunday. G- The busy not» of preparation is sounding at the American Museum. The place is being renovated, deco- rated, beautifled, embellished, ornamented, &c. Barnum will make the place vie in gorgeousness and magnificence with the fairy palace of an Eustern Nabob. ‘The garden on the summit of the Museum will be a per- fect paradise. The magnificent prospect, the balmy breezes, and the pure atmosphere will render it the most agreezble lounge in the city. Winchell that double dis- tilled essence of eccentricity, exercises a powerful influ- ence over the risible faculties of his audience. He keeps them in a continual state of cachination. His represen- tation of Old and Young Nick evinces great versitility — His Dutchman’s story; his Frenchman; his Irishwoman, are all excellent. The attractions this week are unpre cedentedly powerful. American Minister at ConstantinorLe.—Some of the papers are endeavoring to fill this office al- ready. One in Philadelphia hasnamed Major Noah asa fit and proper person as Charge d’Affaires at Constantinople. It would be difficult to imagine a more foolish selection. Mr. Noah might do very well at some of the South American governments or any Christian Court. But to send a man of his faith to represent our nation at the Turkish Court, would be regarded by it asa deliberate insult. His mission to Tunis was terminated prematurely in consequence of the violent prejudices of the Moors against his religion, and we can have no doubt that the Sultan and his ministers would consider the ap- pointment to this office of a person of the same creed,asthe great man of our nation,asa gross insult. QG- Although the places of amusement in N York at the present moment present many attractions, we doubt if any of them can offer more sterling talent than Peale’s New York Museum. The name of Dr. Valentine will sufficiently corroborate the assértion, and when Signor Blitz is mentione we think “it is confirmation strong as proof of holy writ.” Their tations are established on too firm abasis to require“any eulogy from us. La Petite Cerito, the charming danseuse, is nightly greeted with the most rapturous applause. The almost endless col- lection of curiosties the Museum contains,in addition to the splendid Picture Gallery, render it a favorite place of re sort- Accwent to Streamer Mongcan.—We learn that the boilers of the Mohegan gave way yesterday afternoon, about six o’clock, two or three miles the other side of Hurl Gate. We are happy to state that no lives were lost. This steamer left here at five o’clock, with not many passengers, and was going along at her usual rate, when two sheets of her boilers burst off witha loud report. All the passengers were, of course, greatly frightened, but none were killed, and only two or three slightly scalded. More were injured in the confusion by running over each other, than by the hot water spurting upon them. Several of the passengers and Captain Richmond returned to the city last evening—the latter for the Narragansett. She will leave at seven o’clock this morning, and take those now on board the Mohe- gan to Stonington, in time?to meet the train of cars for Boston.

No one who knew any thing of the matter pretended to say that he had. We published the fact of his intention to resign when the new Corporation came into power. Our statement was made on the best authority, and no doubt he will retire. Em@rants —The eflerts recently made to adopt some means of preventing impositions on the emi- grants arriving in this port, have ended in smoke. No doubt the Albany delegation represented a mo- nopoly. The best way is for every one to go on his own hook, and fleece the emigrants as heretofore. That will be the result of it eventually.
