EW YORK HERALD. New York, Wednesday, July 26, 1843 {} Allietters on business with this office, and communications jntended for insertion, must be addressed as heretofore to James Gorvon Brnnerr, ditor and:proprietor of the New York Herald. Tre QuananTine Lav Heaurs or tee City.— in these days when heerts are lostand won at Sara- toga, and the hows luxugiete-im the puddies.at-every corner of our streets—when every breeze at Long Braneh is redolent of health, and every puff of air in the city is loaded with, n@¥ious effluvia—when every young cheek at the “Springs” is more be- witching than ever, and every jaundiced counte- nance here is avoided as the precincts of @ lata retto, it is surely very excusable in us, as the faith- ful guardians of the public weal, to devote some attention to the consideration of those quarantine regulations and municipal enactments, which ere ia ended to preserve the public health. The utility and necessity of quarantine laws, have been subjects of controversy trom their first enactment by the Venetians, in the year 1484, up to the present day. On the one hand, the mer- chants and those whose business was on the ocean, wing properly opposed te unwarrantable delays and restricuons in the prosecution of their enter- rise contended that the enforcement of these laws was, in the majority of cases, ijtogether unnecessary, and consequently unjust ; whilst on the other hand, a due regard for the pub- lic health, operating alike upon physicians and the civil authorities, induced them to employ every precaution against the introduction from foreign ports of maladies supposed to be infectious. The great diversity of opinion on these points, was ow- ing chiefly to the imperfection of medical science lt was only after medical science had felt the influ- of the Baconian mode of conducting philo- sophical investigations, that clearer and more ac- curate notices respecting the doctrine of contagion, and the propriety of quarantine regulations began to prevail. The narrow minded views of former le- xislators now begin to yield befere the light of knowledge and sound philosophy, and we entertain very little deubt, that in a short me the present inconvenieot and oppressive system of quarantine, will be altogether abolished. It would be difficult to imagine any system bette™ calculated to interfere injuriously with the rights ud interests of those engaged in commercial pur- suits, and the feelings and convenience ef passen* gers in onr packet ships, (han that now in operation at this port. [tis a series of abuses from beginning Vessels coming trom healthy ports, and without» single case of sickness on board, are sub- jeeted to the most unwarrantable detention, in not a few cases, to the irreparable injury of those inter- ested in the cargo No better proof of the absurdi- ty and iniguity of this detention, can be offered, than that presented in the fact, that the cabin pas- sengers are permitted to go ashore and come to the city, the poor devils in the steerage and the crew only,being subjected to the rigors of this exceeding- ly wise and equitable system. The folly of subject- ence to end ng vessels to a rigid quarantine, because a few cases of measles, small-pox, or other similar dis- eases, happen to be on board, is so obvious even to non-professional persens, that we do not deem it Preper to waste @ line in its exposure. Whilst we thus decidedly express our opinion that the present quarantine laws are unnecessary and unjust, and ought te be at ence abolished, we are not ty be understood as going as far as the city authorities in opposition to all regulations for the preservation of the public health. We are really not quite prepared to go the length of saying thay streets reeking with putrifying garbage,and swarm- ing with filthy hogs, are highly conducive to the pro- motion and preservation of the healthy condition of our cities. Wee stil! retain some of the old fashion- ed prejudices in favor of cleanliness, and despite of our lengthened experience of the effects of the poli- cy pursued by the municipal authorities of this city, we must confess that we are as much disposed as ever to advocate the necessity and propriely of keeping the streets clean. There is nota city in the Union, which possesses such admirable means of cleanliness as New York. ‘We trust there is not another city in the Union so filthy. But some of the chiefest means which we possess of cleansing our streets, are at present amongst the most efficient agents for polluting the atmosphere, and creating disease. Look at the manner in which the Croton water is used !— Instead of having the gutters first properly swept the waer is poured into them, and mixing with the garbage and refuse of ten thousand kitch- ens, converts them speedily into a putrid mass of reeking filth, generating miasmata which carry dis- ease und death to many a dwelling. If the streets were first properly swept, then the employment of the ¥ ater in washing them, would be of incalcula- ble service. Every one who has inspected the bills of mortality, has observed that since the introduc- tion of the Croton water, the nuniber of deaths has considerably increased. Has this increase arisen from the use of the water for drinking and culinary purposes? Most assuredly not; theugh some silly and unreflecting persons have so believed. But we have no hesitation in expressing our conviction that @ vast amount of sickness has been occasioned by the creation of a noxious effluvia, in consequence of the deluging the filthy streets with the water. Again, and again, and again we have called on the municipa! euthorities for some decisive action respecting the nsing of (he streets and the adop- tion of other measures necessary for the preserva- tion of the health of the city. We must continue to repeat the call until something be done. When Dr. Griscom’s report appeared, we were in hopes vhat some usetul reforms would be made, and some judiciows and enlightened sanitary regulations adop- ted andentorced. But he has been removed from n office he wus eo well fitted to occupy, and all his schemes have been knocked on the head — What « farce it 18, to talk about entorcing quaran- tine laws at Staten Island, and washing passengers’ clothes, whilst such a determined disposition ap- Pp to exist on the part of the authorities to keep the city in the best possible condition for becoming L receptacle of the plague or the yellow fever! Progress or Fovrurrism —We perceive that a great convention of the disciples of Charles Fourier oa this continent, 1s to be held at Pittsburgh in the course of a few months. The zealous and perse- ering manner in which Horace Greeley has advo- ted the cause, and his disinterested generosity in devoting the press under his control to its support, ave of course dictated the wisdom and propriety of clung him as the president of the convention. tall send our unequalied corps of reporters to he convention, and transmitto future generations a faithiol record of all the ‘* sayings and doings.” Omnmus CHaRegs A great many complaints are daily reaching us respecting the fare demanded at might by the drivers of Palmer's Broadway sta- aes. Double the usual fare is charged from Niblo’s, This does look a little like imposition. Why charge shilliog from Niblo’s when only sixpence is de- rvanded for a ride up town at the same hour?

Several of the highest digmtaries are pre- paring to follow Bishop Doane’s example, and stamp Puseyism with the seal of orthodoxy, and others are just about to thunder forth their anathemas against it. The young priests are panting for an opportunity of signalizing themselves in the area of polemical gladiatorship, aad all are as busy as pos- sible in looking over the fathers, and furbishing their theological armour, so as to make a decent ap- pearance in the field. Meantime the publishers and newsboys are not idle, but with a commendable zeal in the discharge of their duties, are inundating the whole commu- nity with tracts, sermons, and Puseyite pamphlets, | Eithout number. The great exciting topic of the day is Puseyism; arid not a few whose acquaint- ance wit’ theojogical and biblical literature, was formerly limited to that portion of it, which enabled them to curse their enemies with sufficient emphasis, are now almost as per- fectly master of the whole range of con- troverted topics, as Mr. Carey or Bishop On- derdonk himself. All this must be — highly advantageous to truth. Free discussion is the great agent which dispels the mists of prejudice and er- ror. It enlarges the boundaries of knowledge, and successtully detects and exposes the mazy subtle- ties amongst which error seeks to entrench herself. One of the most interesting pamphlets on this sub- ject, has just beenissued by Redfield, Clinton Hall. It as entitled, ‘* A letter to the Right Rev. Father | in God, Richard, Lord Bishop of Oxford, on the | Tendency of Romanism imputed to Doctrines held | of old, as now, in the English Church: By Rev. E. | B. Pusey, D. D.” In this letter Dr. Pusey defends at great length, and with characteristic ingenuity, his views on the sufficiency of the Holy Scriptures for salvation, and of the authority of the Church, the justification of man, sin after baptism, the sa- craments, baptism, the Lord’s supper, ministering in the congregation, prayers for those departed in the faith andfear of God, invocation of Saints, and celibacy. As a specimen of the manner in which Dr. Pusey handles his subjects, let us take what he says about celibacy. It is rather an exciting theme—so, here it isfor you, monks and maidens :— Cgtumacy.—There yet remains one specific charge which is to prove an inclination towards the Roman- ist system, the praise of celibacy. It is urged as an objection that we do notput forward “the celibacy ot the clergy,” among “* the chiet grounds of diffe- rence between ourselves and the Church of Rome,” and that * Monasticism and celibacy are counselled and recommended in some passages.” At the same time it isadmitted that these passages cannot be altogether adduced as speaking our sentiments, inasmuch as “several of ” us ‘* are married clergy- men.” r And, first, I may state to your lordship, that no- where in the Tracts have there been put forth any recommendations whether of celibacy in general, or that of the Clergy in particular. It has not been inculeated, nor even named in the Trxcts; and what has been elsewhere said by any who have written in the Tracts, has been dropped incident ally; there has been nothing of systematic promo- tion of this state. Then, also, when mentioned, it has been with reference to specific cases, to provide for especial needs, such as where St, Paul says, ‘on account of the present distress;” or as a way more excellent in itself, as one of the triumphs of faith, not as being generally expedient or desirable, even among the clergy.* And herein, at once a distinc- tion is made between the teaching of these writers and thatof the Church of Rome, which absolutely requires it of her priests; and it appears also how far they are from advocating views in a proselytizing or party spirit. i With regard to the subject itself, | may have per- haps the Jess scruple to speak, as belonging to that class,who, it is admitted, from the'circumstances of their own life, cannot be disposed either to under- tate the blessings of marriage, or unduly to exalt the celibate. I own then, my lord, I cannot read such passages, as, “There be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake ; he that is able to receive it, let him receive it.” “*Verily, I say unto you that there is no man who has left father, ormother, or wife, or children, for My Name’s sake, but he shall receive manifold more in this present fife, and in the world to come life everlasting.” ‘He that standeth steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart, that he will keep his virgin, doeth well; so then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better” Icannot read these and others without acknowledging, that, though marriage is not permitted only, but “‘henor- able,” yea, our Lord honored the marriage rite by His presence and by His beginning of miracles, and has consecrated it into a_mystery and an image of the Church’s union with Him, still “a more excel- lent way” is pointed outto “those, to whom it is given.” Marriage has not only safety, but honor. Changed as its character is by the fall, in that itnow gives birth to a tainted oflepring, yet that men might not despise it, and thence make a snare to them- selves, God has restored it to a portion of the digni- ty which ithad from His institution in Paradise, ignified itin the Patriarchs, set forth an example of itin “Abraham His friend,” and in the pure blessings ef Isaac, made its mutual love a similtude of that which He bears to His Church, and of her reverence to Him, her Head and «aviour ; hallowed it yet more, in that His Son was born of the seed of David, according to the flesh, though not after the flesh, and His Ever Virgin Mother was betrothed, when He “abhorred not the Virgin’s womb,” and He appointed that mothers should be “saved by the Ohildbearing ;” He takes us by the oe ulows our union by the blessing ef His u so that what man might have feared to ap- proacii, is, when “‘enterprised reverently, discreet- ly, advisedly, soberly, and in the fear of God,” a continual image and representation of things holy and Divine. But it isthe very character of the Faith, that, while it enobles the use of God’s permitted blessing, it po.nts out to those who can receive it, a higher way, by foregoing them. Thus, it declares “eve: creature of God is good, and nothing to be relcaed, if it be received with thanksgiving,” and it conse- crates it to our use “bythe word of God aad by Prayer,” yet it shows “a more excellent way” by fasting, which “He who seeth in secret, shall re- ward openk it teaches that “tour lands are in our power,” yetit promises “manifold more to those who forsake ho and landstor His Name’s sake and the Gospel t teaches to “lie downin peace and sleep in Him, who maketh us to dwell in safe- Ye yet those who are able, it invites to be like their Lord, and “watch unto prayer,” to “prevent the nights watches,” or even to “spend the night in prayer to God:” it teachesto “use this world with- out abusing it,” yet is St. Paul’s example higher, who lived “‘crusified with his Saviour to the world and the world to him:” it sheds a grace and beau ty around lite’s innocent eujoyments, and teaches usa Christian mirthfulness, yet it points, as the higher and nobler, to “take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in dis- tresses, for Christ’s sake, in St. Paul’s eight-fold “‘perila;” “in weariness and painfuluess, in hunger and thirst, in cold and nakedness;” it invests with a sacred awe “magistrates and those who are in authority,” yet bids those “who would be chief a- mong” us, “‘to be as the servants of all;” it sancti- fies marriage, but it placesabove it those who fore- go wives tor His sake. But what hasthis, my lord,in common with Rome and Romanism ? The preterence ot celibacy, as the higher state, is Seriptural,and as being such, is Prim- itive. The corruption of Rome was not its preference but +5 tyranical, ensnaring and avaricious enforce- ment. But why should men thus in their haste leap over to the contrary side, and exercise a tyrnany over men’s conseiences in the opposite way? Why thus decry and revile as Popieh what is Primitive ?-- Why should not celibacy be used by those to whom it is given, to bind men’s affections the more firmly to their Lord, instead of te Rome? Scripture says “He thatis uomarried careth for the things that be- long unto the Lord, how he may please the Lord ; but he that is married careth for the things of the world, how he may please his wife.” Why, then, cut off the aspirings of there more ardent minds, who hope thusto wait upon their Lord without distraction, Why not be thankful for our omn * The possages quoted are Brit, “You must have dissent or mon country: so make your choice.” Mag. vol. ix. p. 896. ism in a Christian Ib. towns will never be evangelized mere system; they are beyond the sphere p. 368.“ Great ly by the parochial of the burdened as be is with the endearments ana (ariel, Priest, family.” Froude’s Remains, t. i. p. 922. “Tt has come into my head that the present state of things in England makes an opening for reviving the monastic nyate He continued; ‘I think of putting the view forward under the title of ‘ Project for reviving religion in great towns.’ Certainly colleges of unmarried priests, (who fnig t of course retire to living when they could, and liked,) would be the cheapest possible way of provi { ding for the spiritual wants of « large population.” blessings, without grudging to those who have for- gone them for their Lord’s sake, the blessing an- nexed to self-denial, that they might ‘* give them- selves,” the rather, “‘wholly to these things,” and to the service of their Lord? Why not content ourselves to be among those who have Love’s supporting force . To cheat the toil and cheer the way ;” without envying others “in their lonely course, (Lonely not ferlorn,”)— Why, as Rome has tried, and in vain, to stretch out the limbs of her clergy to one uniform standaru, should people among us use the other half of the ancient tyrant’scruelty, and setting up a lower stan- dard, amputate all which exceeds itt This forced mediocrity of attainment is unsafe as it is cruel; it provides no vent for those who can find no rest in the ordinary and even paths of lite; it drives such into Komanism, or makes them founders of fresh schisms among ourselves. A more generous course, which would have interposed, when necessary,the guidance of sao, and Jed but not inhibited, might have made Wesley and Whitfield useful members of the Church, instead of leaving them to plunge thousands into schism, and to train off into a delusive doctrine many of the best members of our Chureh. I am not advocating celibacy, my lord,as the general rule of the Church, nor imposing upon others ‘‘a yoke, which I touch not with one of my fingers:” nor hay e any of usso done. * . There is need and room for soldiers of all sorts in the Lord’s‘*willing army;”why cut off any one kind? why require that all His warriors should ‘‘cumber themselves with the concerns of this life?” why should not some undertake a harder, so that it be, which in the Church of Rome it is not, a ‘willing service?” Why again should the daughters of our land be in a manner forced into marriage, as in the former days of Romanism they were into celibacy, and the days of the Old Testoment be brought back upon us, and our maidens marry, in order to “take away theirreproach among men,” now that He who was looked for is come, and they can serve Him, not by becoming mothers of the holy line whereot He was born, but by ministering to His members in a sanctified virgin-estate? Why should we not also, instead of our desultory visiting-societies, have our Saurs de la Charité, whose spotless and religious purity might be tieir passport amid the scenes of misery and loathsomeness, carrying that awe about them, which even sin feels towards undefiledness, and impressing a healthtul sense of shame upon guilt by their very presence?. Why should marriage alone have its dues among the daughters of our great, and the single estate be condemned to an un- willing listlessness, or, left to seek undirected, and unauthorized, and unsanctified, ways of usefulness of its own? bs = * id Mr. O’Conneti’s Liseraity.—In one of the southern counties of Ireland, a riot occurred some time since, in which a party of Orangemen who were proceeding to an anti-repeal meeting with a band of music, were assailed. The drum was un- fortunately knocked on the head. The cireum- stance created quite a ferment among the Orange party, and was the source of much more noise than the unlucky drum had ever been privileged tomake. Mr. O'Connell took up the matter in one of his late speeches, and thus pleasantly settled the business :— “There was one an he wished to call upon the Association to do, and it was his principal busi- ness there thatday. (Hear, hear) The attack at Carland was commenced by people living there on the Orangemen, and not by the Orangemen—that was beyond a doubt. The Orange party were play- ing a sweet Scotch air, ‘‘My love is but a lassie yet,” and offending no person, and they were attack- ed by, he would say, those ruffians in the quarry, but it was quite clear they were not repealers.— (Hear.) If they were, he would move that the: should be instantly expelled, and their names struc! out. (Hear.) If they were repealers, they would know their maxim, ‘that he who commits a crime aes strength to the enemy.’ The drum of the rangemen had been broken, and one of them had been cut in the head, and he was for the Associa tion buying him a better drum. (Hear, hear.) He was also for writing dewn to the country to know af, Murragh, the man that had been injured, earned his livelihood by wages, and that if he did, his wa- ges should be paid to him until he was able to re- turn to his work. (Hear, hear.)” Da Oprgnneim, or Hampurcu.—This celebra- ted surgeon, and valuable medical writer,was one of the one hundred and sixty-five German surgeons, who were in the army under Deibitsch, who took possession of Adrianople in 1829. Of this numerous medical staff, only ten besides Oppenheim sur- vived the fatigues and disasters of the campaign. Dr. Oppenheim afterwards entered into the ser- vice of the Grand Vizier, and established hospitals onthe European plan at Adrianople. He is now settled at Hamburgh, and is literally covered with honors, well earned by long and zealous devotion to the interests of science. He hastwo brothers in this city engaged in the fur trade, and who are highly respected. Tue Hon. T. F. Marswati.—This distinguished statesman, congressman, temperange lecturer and calf-shooter, has been lecturing on a tee-total temperance pilgrimage through the State of Ken- tucky with great eclat. Wherever he has appeared itis said that all ranks and classes have united to testify their high admiration and gratitude for his praiseworthy achievements in that golden field of labor, the temperance reformation. Every where generous hogpitalities and hearty greetings awaited him on the roadside, whilst the towns he approach- ed, sent out their deputations of reception and con- gratulation, without distinction of party or condi- tion.

He had afull and fashienable audience ; indeed, so great was the crowd that many were compelled to go away without admission. In compliance with the public wish, Mr. Russell was to give another Con- cert last evening in the large dining room of the U. 8.

From Mexico.—By the schooner Zuriah, thirty days {rom Laguna, we learn that the Mexicans | were busily engaged in transporting their troops from Campeachy, having lost about 8000 men by the disasters of war, and disease. Rocky Mountain Party.—A paragraph has been going the rounds of some of the Western papers, purporting to be founded ona letter received from one of the members of the Rocky Mountain party of tourists, which insinuates, that owing to the rude- ness and tyrannical conduct of Sir William Drum- mond Stewart, a great ceal of difficulty had arisen. We do not believe this. Sir William isa good deal of an eccentric, btu he is inthe best sense of the term, a gentleman, and would be the last person in the word to be guilty of “ rudeness,” unless we are much mistaken in his character. (ig Five Mackinaw boats arrived at St. Louis on the 10th instant, from Fort George on the Platte River, with twelve hundred packs of Buffalo robes. They were sixty days performing the trip. (cy It is reported that two young gentlemen, re- cently clerks in the office of the Bank of Upper Canada, have been arrested and committed on a charge ofembezzling the funds of the bank. The parties are highly respectable. Pig Tau.s.—The lamp poets in Cincinnati are all to be taken down, and the city is hereafter to be lighted with live pig tails. The pigs squeal at one end, and give light at the other. We always ex- pected to see a great light in the West, but we never thought it would come from such a source ‘Tur Watxine Marcn.—The walking mateh of a 1009 miles in a 1000 hours, between Elworth and Fagg, commences at Chelsea near Boston to-day Fourrern Days Later rrom Canron.—By the arrive! of the fast sailing ship Horatio, Capt How- land, we have received advices from Macao down to the 12th of April. We make the following ex- tracts from the Canton Press. ott By the Ardaseer, arrived on the 26th March, the December overland mail has been received, and we have been put in possion of a number of Bombay and Straits p pers, that, however, of course, convey no later intelligence than that received by the Vixen steamer. From the Singapore papers we see that tigers and gangs of Chinese commit great depreda- tions against the lives and property of the iuhabit- ants, aud a meeting of the latter was convened, at which an address to the Resident was agreed on, asking for the establishment of a more efficient police, the robbers hitherto having generally esca- ped undetected; and therefore unpunished. A comet haa been visible, we learn from Manilla and Singapore since the beginning of last month, but during almost all which time the weather here has been so unsettled, and the sky so continually evercast, that it was first beheld here on the night of the 23th. The comet itself is barely visible to the naked eye, but its tail is of great extent, say about 40 degrees, and quite straight. At present it sets at about half past ten, in the southwest, and when first seen disappeared soon after mghtfall It is pro- bable, therefore, that it will remain visible a long while. We believe this to be a comet hitherto un- known. As may be supposed, the Chinese are in poe commer aoe about it, believing that it for- jes evil. Among the many honers and promotions bestow- ed eee the officers of the military and naval forces employed in the late Chinese war, indicative of the approval of the government at home of the services rendered, we are sorry to find that the Chinese in- terpreters, who have had such very arduous duties to perform, and who onoccasion have even been as much exposed to the enemy’s fire as any body else, should as yet not have been remembered by Her Majesty’s government. They have during three or four years been constantly employed in conducting the many negotiations which have at length so hap- pily terminated, and indeed upon them the heads of the expedition were at ail times totally dependent tor carrying on their intercourse with the feces of the country ; thus frequently they were called pon to perform duties which were not properly within their sphere, and owing to their number being 50 very small, it may be supposed that their labors were not light. To them the leaders of the expe- dition have, we believe, been indebted to a great deal of valuable information as to the intended movements of the enemy, and the commissariat would frequently not have obtained the neceasary supplies, without their aid. Some of these gentle- men, pee have, for a considerable while, dis- charged the duties of magistrates, at the places oc- cupied by the English. In fact their services have been invaluable, and the public, and particularly the foreign community in China, would have hailed with pleasure any marks of approbation bestowed by the Queen’s government on Messrs. Morrison, Gutzlaff and Thom, as due to them for the eminent services they have rendered We publish below a Circular issued by H. E. Sir Henry Pottinger yesterday, informing the creditors of the Hingtae and other hongs, that the $500,000 now in the hands of the Cohong, will be distributed among them under the superintendence of an officer on the part of the British government. We believe the creditors, for some time aware of the accumu- lation of the Consoo fund, sometime since addressed the secretary of H. M. Superintendents of trade, for permission to have it distributed according to their several ciaims. _ We understand that Keshen has been reinstated in many of his honors and titles, and that he has ey been sent in the Government con to Yar kand, in Tartary. Nothing certain, so far as we know, has of late been heard of the fate of Lin. We mentioned some weeks since that Captain White of the Emma had picked up and brought to Macao a boat crew of the shipwrecked Spanish brig Singular, tost onthe Prata Shoal. We are glad to learn that the Captain General of the Phillippines has through Capt Halcon conveyed his acknow- ledgments to Capt White of the any which prompted him to save the lives of these people. Orrictat. No. 134. Macao, 30th March, 1843. Gentlemen—I am directed by Sir Henry Pottin- jad under eS to intimate to you, that having new is consideration, and. having most carefully perused and weighed the proceedings of the Committee which investigated the claims againstthe insolvent Hingtae Hong in 1837, His Excellency has resolved to confirm those procenines and to authorise the payment of dividends accordingly, under the super- intendence of an officer on the part of the British Government, who will be deputed to Canton for that purpose. i The Cohong having reported that a further sum of $500,000 is ready to discharge the established claims against the Hingtae and other hongs, orders will be issued for its early division, and you are requested to pass the usual receipts. : he cases of protest against the proceedings of the Committee in the _case of the iin tae debts have been referred to England, and the decision of Her Majesty will be hereafter communicated to those who are intereeted in it Thave the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your most was humble servant A+ Matcoum.

Nopio’s.—It is gratifying to observe the crowded audiences that have been attracted by the new opera.of Donizetti La Fille du Regiment ; the whole piece is carefully produced and every way deserv- ing of the lavish encomiums bestowed on it by the avowed amateurs of music and the publie general- ly. The prima donna makes her last salute to-night as the Suttler Marie. M’selle Calvé will be long re- membered in New York from her inimitable man- ner of singing Donizetti’s music. As this is positively the last mght the opera is to be played, we antici- pate another crowded theatre. Each evening as the opera finishes the Prima Donna is called for loudly to receive a sort of ‘ sum total” of applause from the delighted audiences that are attracted by her exquisite performance and singing in the new opera. 5 Cuatuam Tueatre.—A new local drama is to be produced at this theatre to-night, entitled The New York Apprentice, or the Warning Dream, which is highly spoken of by those who have had access to the MS. We are glad to see a liberal spirit evinced in regard to our native dramatists and the produc- tion of national and local pieces. There is no lack of talent in this country, or of varied incident, whereby to create and found a dramatic literature of ovr own, which shall hereafter form, with that of Europe, a standard of composition ; all that is ne- ceseary for the accomplishment ot this desirable ob- ject is proper encouragement. Let the Chatham be sustained in its laudable efforts to progress such happy result. Later Prom TRivipap.—The brig Woodstock, Capt. Tucker, arrived at this port yesterday from Point Petre, via Si.

We extract the following passages, from which it seems thatthe English have been putting their fingers in the pie.— Che letter quoted from is dated Feb. 10:— gone on regularly till within the wi ‘an idea we shall have a serious f Europe is not dis- M. ship Talbot, Cap- iy . Sir Thomas brought letters from the English Govern: ment to Queen Pomare ; and as she was, on the arrival of her to come over, the reeespt of Sir Thomas's letter, she came across in state, with the old Tahiti flag flying in her range. She and the fore, and saluted it with twenty.one guns, as they alse did on her departure. This annoyed the French greatly, so much that the: is hed a Tae inst the proceedings of the propio el ip Talbot in hoisting and saluting the old Tahiti flag, thereby disturbing the peace and tranquilli- ty of the place, andacting directly hostile to France.— Sir Thomas tnen requested the Queen to call a meeting of all the inhabitants on the island to know whether it was their wish that the French should hold possession and govern the island. The meeting took place yester. day in the Queen’s enclosure, and it attended by about 10,000. When called pe te speak, they all agreed to a man in not wishing the French to remain on the island, and they ail wished the Queen to allow them to ge and pull dowa the protectorate flag ; but she would net allow it. Last night, however, the flag was hauled down, and the signal halyards were cut away. The captainof the Boussole threatened to fire pen Se Pee tnye Goes or KS Up again ; and the captain of the English frigate eked to fre onthe Frenchman the moment a shot is fred upon the town. ‘As the tenor of the English letter to Pomare was that England would protect her ogainst any foreign power that should encroach lige her dominions, and both frigates at present lie all ready for battle, and as the Queen and most of the natives have fled to a distant part otthe island, there isne knowing how this affair will end, though [ trust the Frenchman and the Englishman will fightit out, as they are equally matched. I care not which wins. ‘Tanita, March 24th, 1843. In my former letter to you, | informed you ef the man- ner in which we were situated here with the French and English ; and I have now to inform you that the business A more serious aspect than ever ; for, on the 12th month, Commodore Nicholas arrived here in H. B. ip Vindictive, of 52 guns, bringing presents to this rom Queen Vietoria ; and having heard of the possession of ueen sree in which the French had gait the island, immediately made known, in a public meeting of the natives his intention of lying’ here and protecting them against the encroachments of the French, at all hazards. The next day, being the third day of his arrival here, he unbent sails and warped his ship abreast the Queen’s resi- dence, where sheis still lying. We have also two Fr sloops of war here, that have been lying here for th two months, doing nothing but watch the proceedings of the English Gommodore with the utmost Jealousy 3 and they intend to remain here till the arrival of the French Admiral, who is expected daily. We then shall have rumors of wi self, as neither party is disposed to f ive way to the other, and’both parties have compromised their national honor so far that they cannot draw back without conceding to each other, which neither at present appears disposed to do. My opinion is, that the sma!l island of Tabiti will be the cause ofinvolving France and England in a conflict ; for itis the island which they bota want—not the im- provement of the condition of the natives, as they pre- tend. Should the French Admiral, on his arrival here, take umbrage at the manner in which the English have con- ducted in his absence, no doubt we shall have the com- mencement of the row here, as the John Bull commander is a hot-headed and fiery old chap, and is in one of the most efficient ships in the English navy. , if not actual war it- City Intelligence. Fane 1s THE City Parson.—The practice of supplying accused persons confined in the city prison before trialor conviction, with similar or less wholesome food than is given to the inmates of the penitentiary, has tothe dis- grace of our city, long been continued by the Alms House Commissioners. Persons there confined deserve and should receive wholesome fare, of good quality, and a distinction should be shown, if possible, in the distribu- tion of that fare, between the persons convicted of offences, and those held ona mere suspicion of crime. At this season of the year they should be supplied with vege- tables, for soup, if nothing more, and it will arcely be wert, that not even a potato is now vils, who are unlucky enough to be of the law, and fall into the city his error exists alone with the believed, when we furnished the poor d canght in the sn: prison for safe keepin, Alms House Commissioners, and we sixcerely beli from our knowledge of their sense of right and just that they vegetables 8 e, 1 order a weekly, ifnot daily supply of those at are so abundant at this season of the junk and rye coffve are tough enough for cld ut men arrested on suspicion of offence, should be treated with more lenity. Numerous instances have come to our know ledge of men who have been incarce- rated in the city prison for months, compelled from erty to partake of [mene fare, and when placed at the ar for trial, were dec entirely innocent of the crime always havea full and can it be those merely detained on suspicion Not enly is the burden severe in these cases, but Low much more so is it when applied to innocent and unof- fending witnesses confine! to aid the ends of justice, whose poverty alone compels such confivement, and who, therefore, must swallow salt junk soup made without a single erticle of a vegetable nature, while the very crimi- nal at whose suit they may be incarcerated, can dine at the Astor, or sup on Windust’s woodcock. Gentlemen Commissioners, we feel confident you will listen to the evils here pointed out, and, notwithstanding you have adopted a system of economy in the administration of your duties highly creditable to yourselves, yet your consti- tuents will never complain at a moderate ee supplying the inmates of the City Prison with I toesto freshen their salt get ready for the new order. iture in sh pota- jo, Mr. Steward Purdy, Atremrtep Suicipr.—Yesterday evening, a woman named Mary McBride, No. 37 Orangestreet, while suf- fering under the effects of intemperance, attempted to destroy herself by drinking some verdigris which she had mixed up ina cup. Her husband saw the act, and had the presence ot mind todash the fatal cup from her lips ere too much of its contentshad been drained. She ihe A hae to the City Prison, and piaced in charge of jan, who has hopes of her recovery.

Two other lads who were in company with him, made theirescape at the time. ‘The old ring and box of percussion caps, were left the same day by a boy, who turns out to! be Nelson U. Hill, at the store of William Blaskitt, No. 364 Bowery, from whence they were recovered and recognized. The other boys, Ezra Wooley and David Lee, none of whom are over six: teen years of age, were also arrested and fully committed for trial. Snortivtine.—In the police records during thejjlast couple of months we find daily a case or two of this par ticular class of crime, but whether we are to ascribe its increase tothe poverty which compels many of our poorer citizens to have recourse to this unlawful means to ward off starvation; or to the increased temptation, in having the wares more incautiously exposed, we are at a loss to say. whup both causes contribute their share in spreading the evil. Yesterday two cases occurred,— ‘Tne first was Peter Thompson, who was caught in the act ofcarrying a from the counter of J. & I. Chamber. lain, No.9 South William street, a pattern card of but. tons, on which were upwards of 15,000 of different de. J tem sizes and varieties, and which was valued at $idby the owne: The other was that of Mary Ann Edwards, who wasdetected by the clerk of Messrs, Sa- lisbury & Boyle,on the corner of Broadway and White streets, dry goods merchants, as she was smuggling into her basket a piece of cambric musiin, worth $4,50. There is much reason to suppose that M. been en- gaged in such evil practices before, willow with a blue rim, perfect! for new vate marketing, is apparantly a stolen one, and contents,a piece of black French lace,some yarda of dark cotton and a pair of slippers,too large for her size,are also detained for owners.
