Norice To 4 Postmastsr.—We have received se- veral commanicatiens relatyve to the manner im which the postmaster of South Adam, Mass., dis- charges his duties. If he do notatiend to his busi- ness properly, and see thatthe copies of our paper transmitted to that place are regularly delivered, he may soon expect a more intelligible admonition. The Weekly Herald Published this morniog, contains a full report of the important trials of the Phenix Bank robbers, and of Dowden, for stealing the cancelled Treasury notes, dangers by the storm, the examination of the Lavinia pirates, the case of the Brooklyn Bank robbery, important news from South America and the West Indies, Corporation and civie reforms and retrenchment, with all the other news of the week.

Opening OF THE ParstpentiaL Campatcy.—The mandate has gone forth from Tammany Hall for the true and faithful of the ‘young and old democracie’> to assemble in their respective wards, on Thursday evening next, to select three delegates to represent them in a County Convention, at Tammany Hall, to be beld on the 24th inst., to select thirteen dele- gates to represent the city and county of New York in a State Convention, to be hefd at Syracuse on ‘Luesday, the 5th of September next. This Syracuse Convention will be the ball starter to roll Mr. Van Buren back again into the presidential chair, and every energy will be brought to bear by his friends to secure delegates friendly to him from this city. Those who formerly held office under him are the beagles of the chase at the present period, and those who have been disappointed in application to John ‘Tyler are the whippers-in and baggers of the spoils 10 anticipation. There will be a division in the re- presentation at Tammany Hall, and in case resolu- tions friendly to any particular candidate for the Presidency should be preseated at the various ward meetings, such speechifying, indignation, rioting and rowdyism, as will follow, will be a caution to all inattendance except a Sixth Ward politician. In several of the wards strong measures will be adopted to secure Calhoun delegates, and opposition will be raised in all to the instruction of delegates in favor of any particular candidate. From present appear- ances, pot an attempt wt'l be made to select or hunt upa Tyler delegate, as the “active” force inthe cus- tom house, who now are snug in place, are too wise to risk their bread and butter in such an attempt, and thus bring down the force of opposition and prospective removal in case of the re-election of Van Buren to the Presidency. The “boys” who are m ‘ow in, wish to stay in; and although some few y get up a flourish on the occasion, it will be per: fectly understood at Tammany Hall that it is amere bait to deceive the gudgeons who have appointed them to their comfortable berths. Great Excrrement among Tae Orrice Hoipers. —The recent report of the Joint Committee of Fi- nance of the Common Council, partially acted upon in the Board of Aldermen on Thursday evening, has caused considerable fluttering among the various office holders who by its provisions are curtailed of some of their salaried proportions; and we under- stand that on Monday evening next, amendments will be made reducing the sum paid to all the promi- nent agents of the Corporation, from the Mayor to the most humble elerks in the several departments. The committee allege as the reason for this sudden necessity for reform, that the expenditures of the current year far exceed its income. In assuming this position, which certainly entities them to some credit, it is somewhat remarkable that the most humble, most arduous, and most responsible sta- tions should have been selected as the first and the only objects of their special care and kind considere- tion, while namerous high salaried oflicers, unne- cessary expenditures and useless sinecures, should entirely eseape their notice. If retrenchment of a tew thousand dollars was a subject of such impor- tance to this vast city at this particular crisis, how much more disiaterested, more wise and more just would it have been for this committee to have re- commended the abolishment of the useless expen- diture caused by the gormandizing at the committee tables in the tea room of the City Hal!, or cut down the face of thé numerous and exorbitant bills for public printing, and given the latter work out by public contract to the lowest bidder. Jt is certainly a strange anomaly in the political character of this committee, professing as they always do, so much feeling for {the dear jipeople on the eve of an election, that the expendi- tures last named should have missed their keen research, and some dozen clerks, public land keepers, carpenters, and superintendents, alone se- lected for their lather brush and partial shaving.— This smacks too much of the upper crust notion tha’ sooner or later saturates public men when they are firmly seated in power, and is a striking con- trast to the professions so often heard before such power is obtained. ‘There is no class of society who can less bear re- duction of their daily income than the middling class—those whose salaries range between five and eight hundred dollars—as their relative position, contrasted with those who receive their thousands, will readily make manifest. They are compelled to make a similar appearance in dress,a similar sup- port for their families, to pay the same cost for the little luxuries that become necessary from habit and daily association with their salaried betters ; and in all expenses, save extravagance in house rent, and tax for political purposes, have nearly the same burthens to bear; therefore they should be the last and not the first selected as examples of corporation economy. We do not wish to be un- derstood as endeavoring in any manner to create an impression that our prominent public servants under the corporation ate paid more than their ar- duous and important duties actually demand ; but f reform and retrenchment is to be attempted with a sincere view, these gentlemen can better bear a a reduction of a few hundreds than the humble clerk and laborer can a few fifties. (cg A few of the smaller fry of papers are circu- lating a story about the alleged abrupt departure of one of our reporters from Saratoga. It is altogether a fabrication. Our reporter left when the time al- lotted by us for his stay there expired ; and instead of his jetters having given any offence to the respect- able visiters at the “Springs,” they met the appro- bation of all except a knot of drunken rowdies and bankrupts, who were enraged because our reporter made a public discovery of their whereabouts, for the bevefit of unfortunate creditors and the officers of police Saratoga, by the bye, is not the only place of fashionable resert where swindlers and the plunde- rers of honest creditors are engaged every season in spending in ‘‘all sorts of riotous living,” the pro- ducts of their successful rascality§ We could pick outat least one distinguished gentleman at Rocka- way, for instance, who occasionally talks very mag- nificently in his editorial columns about honor, and decency, and morality, who'comes within the cate- gory to which we now allude. yh There have been several arrivals of distin- guished toreigners at the Globe Hotel during the last two days, viz; Admiral Sir Charles Adam, R. © B, with Lady Adam and family; Lieutenant Ra. ton and Mr. Adam, of H.

The legality of the levy is contested The Bloody Affair in Kentucky. Some day or two since we published a statement from the “‘Madisonian,” of a bloody attack made by Mr. C. M. Clay, son of the Hon. Henry Clay, on @ Mr. Brown, a Tylerite, during an exciting election contest in Kentucky. Since that period Mr. C. M. Clay has published a letter, bearing date the 2d instant, in his own vindication, wherein he gives a full account of the causes which led to the affray. He saysin his etatement that “ Early in this Con- ressional cauvass, Mr. Robert Wicklifle, jr., said that he was assured that some time last year a cat cus was held in the towa of Frankfort, in which wasagreed so to arrange the Congressional districis in the coming session of the Legislature that Hon. Garrett Davis should be brought into the old Fay- ette District, in order to deteat Hon. Thomas F. Marshall. This allegation Mr. Davis positively de- nied, and called upon Mr. Wicklifle for the proof. Oa last Monday, at the Republican Meeting: house, in the county of Fayette, Mr. Wicklifle again re- peated this charge; whereupon Mr. Davis rejoined Cs saying that he had ali along called upon Mr. icklifle to produce his proof, and, lately, in the county of Woodford, where all the parties were said to live, he had repeated his call for proot, but that Mr. Wicklitlee had failed to produce it. dr, Wek- lifle thereupon produced Squire Whittington, of Woodtord county, who sustained substantially Nr. W.’s allegation, giving Mr. Dameal, of Woot tord, as his author, and say/ng that he understood in sub- stance from Mr. Darneal’s conversation that the caucus was held at Mr. Davidson’s house in Frank- fort, and that he (Mr. )) ) was present at twe of the meetings said there to have been held. Mr. Whit- Uington farther said that Mr. Darneal was as honor- able a man as himself or Mr. Kinkead, who was also present at the coneersation, and who would confirm allhe said. Whereupon Mr. Davis called upon Capt. Jessee, of Woodford, who said that Mr. Darneal had said to him and others that the whole matter was “*a lie—yes, a damned Jie,” that he never had been or said he was at Davidson’s, nor did he believe any such caucus hed been held anywhere. Mr. Whittington made no reply. Notwithstanding these remarks, Mr. Wickliffe, it appears, at various places at which the parties met to address the people, in the course of the warm con- test going on there, reiterated his statement, and many contradictions were bandied and the lie given betweenthem In the course of these exciting con- troversies the scene occurred which Mr. Clay thus describes :— Samuel Brown, a post office agent under John Tyler, acting President of the United States, and not a citizen of this District, then said to me, in an ex- cuted and menacing manner, “Sir, it 1s not trae— Capt, Jesse never said so.” I turned and said, “You lie.” He then said, You are a d mned liar,” at the same time rushing at me. 1, drawing back a horse whip which I held in my hand, struck him without any decided effect, as he closed on me too fast for me to deferd myself with it. I was imme- diately seized by a great many persons, and was borne by the current fifteen or twenty feet from the place of the firstengagement. Finding no fair play, { threw away my whip, drew my bowie knite, and succeeded in disengaging myselt without cutting or attempting to cut any one. The first glimpse I again caught ot Samuel Brown, he was in an open space, with a five or six barrelled pistol bearing upon me— I was forced to run or be shot. I chose to receive his shot, which struck ie, alter a most deliberate aim, just under the lett rib. I telt the shock of the ball, but knowing it was rarely that a man in hot blood felt a shot, even when fatal, I determined to sell my life as dearly as possible. Knowing that he could shoot me five times in quick succession, I closed on him, and cut away in good earnest till we were separated. Alter [ was shot, some one struck me_a heavy blow, affecting my head and left arm, which confirmed me in my opinion that no quarter was to be given me. Nor do | suppose I should have been parted at all, 1 they had not seen that it was in my power ei- ther to take or spare his life ; and I believe that af- ter the second or third blow, before he got too close on me, I could have killed him it I had so wished. I was pausing, supposing that I had disabled him, when some one ened out * kill him”—when I sup- posed that they intended to give me no quarter, and again commenced in good earnest Here, my countrymen, is a frank statement of the whole affair. T afterwards found that his ball had passed through my clothing, just below the left rib, penetrating my knife-case, and lodged in the silver that bordered it. That there was a deliberate and pre-determined design to assassinate me, appears from the follow- ing circumstances, which will be proven, if deem- ed necessary, by hundreds of the people of Fayette. Brown was not at Delphton in the morning ; he was in Lexington at about 2 o’clock, P. M., uesday, and wes heard by Beach to say that he would kill seme one. At that late hour he leaves Lexington for the Cave, s1x miles off; in the mean time, Mr. Wickliffe invites his persona! friend Gen. McCalla, and all the county officers, to speak first; in the morning, at Delphton, he reads Whittington’s let- ter in the beginning of his speech ; now he reads it after a long speech, and after most of my friends had left the ground ; Brown, with a crowd of desperate bullies, surrounds me, and, as scon as I make my statement, gives me the lie; Tam caught up by my enemies and borne away till Brown gets his pistol ready, and, bearing full upon me,I am first shot (as they hoped fatally) before I can get at all within striking distance, and again struck with a chair or stick and stunned by the blow—and at last not parted ull] had my enemy {u\l in my power. {ne- ver struck Brown with the knife till he shot me—in a word, throughout I acted in all respects on the defensive. Mr. C. M. Clay is the son of the prominent Whig candidate for the Presidency ; Mr. Wickliffe isthe son of Captain Tyler’s Postmaster General ; and Brown is one of that functionaries agents. From these details it will be seen to what an extent poli- tical feeling is carried in Kentucky, and how much the passions of partisans are aroused. ©. M. Cray.—The U. 8. Gazette denies that this gentleman, who had the affray with Browne, is any way related to the Hon Henry Clay, excepting in the matter of whiggery. Tne Texan Banps.—It will be recollected that a ‘Texan army under Captain Snively, was organized by Sam Houston to capture the Santa Fe traders between St. Louis ard Mexico. This band had been captured by Capt. Cocke, of Gen. Gaines’ di- visionof the United States army. Captain Cooke found them on the 30th June, twenty-four miles be- low the Arkansas crossings, and within the terri- tory of the United States. The most of them have come on to St. Louis with Capt. Cooke. Colonel Warfield was with the band,which numbered about 107 men. Samuel Huffner one of Snively’s party, says :— “On the 19th of June we came in contact with the ad- vance of Governor Armijo’s army, (about 100 Mexicans.) under Chavelers. About 100 Texans engaged in the attackonthem. After firing three rounds, we broke their ranks, killed 25, wounded 23, and took all the rest pri: soners—without having a ‘Texan hurt.” At that time the party amounted to 190 men, 84 of whom were sent home with the prisoners on the 29th June. After their capture by Capt. Cooke, Colonels Snively and Warfield, with 70 men, were permitted to start on their return with five guns to Texas. “ The Comanche Indians took sdvantege of their de- fenceless state—killed four of their men, and drove off sixty horses aud mules. Warfield pursued them with five men, intending to retake the horses, but he was eur- rounded by atout 150 Indians. Warfield repelled the attack, killed seven Indians, and returned to camp with. out having a man hurt.” It farther appears that Ambrose Spencer, son of John C. Spencer, present Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, was one of the band, and acted as their Judge Advocate. Exection.—An election is to be held in Georgie on the first Monday in October next, for a member of Congress, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation ef Major Cooper.

Tue Puaemix Bank Trtacs.—We have received the report of the continuation of the trial of Wy- man and Brown, on Wednesday, (third day) but nothing new was elicited, the testimony given go- ing to sustain the statement which we have already published. The direct examination of Mr. Hunne- well, a director of the Bank, was continued at great length, occupying the whole forenoon session ot the Court. In the afternoon, Joha S. Tyler was ofler- ed by the government as a person expert in book. keeping, who had examined the books of the bank, to testifyas to the mode in which the books had been kept. The admission of this witness was ob- ject to by the opposing counsel, on the ground that the books themselves were to be submitted to the jury. Judge Allen, in consequence, excluded Mr. Tyler. John Hurd, a director of the bank fromthe commencement, was next put on the stand, and his examination occupied the afternoon until the ad- jourament of the Court. Tae Trav or Dowven, THE Treasuay Cueax.—This trial is still progressing, but the counsel for the prisoner are evidently getting up an excitement in behalf of their client, to influence the jury and the public. Much of the time of the Court has been consumed with a discussion re lative to a supposed tampering with one of the witnesses. a Mrs. Dorsey, and with ber examination on that subject. ‘This Mrs, Dorsey, it-appears, resides in Baltimore, and at her house Dowden boarded when he attended the Na- tional Convention by which General Harrison was nomi- nated to the Presidency. She has since kept up some in- tercourse with him, and it is shown that these Treasury notes were received by her, one of which she exchanged and after executing certain commissions, returned the balanceto Washington, to the person from whom she re- ‘The letters on this subject came to . C. Campbell,” and when the arrest was questioned respecting the writer, of whom ssed to be totally ignorant. ‘his eration was deemed calculated only to deceive the most “ ver- dant” tyro in such matters, for it was scarcely possible to suppose that she would be entrusted with such commis. sions without a knowledge of the person from whom they ceme, and her continued denial of oll knowledge of the writer naturally led to the conclusion that she in- tended to screen the guilty party, and thus compromise her own character. This was represented to her, and she was pressed to say whether it was not Dowden, against whom so much other evidence ex- isted, and this is now represented as an attempt to induce this women to fix the writing of the letter on Dowden against her knowledge tothe contrary or her ignorance of the person who had s0 singularly become her corres- pondent. The newspaper reports of the trial have also become the subject of observation in the case ; andthe Judge expressed the opinion that no publications ought to be made of trials in courts of justice, while they were pending ; as they might produce an improper influence. But on whom can such an influence operate injuriously ? Ifthe Judge, the counsel, andthe jury attend to theirle gitimate duties, and abstain from reading newspapers un- til they have administered justice in the case, which they are trying, no evil can possibly, result, But they have some extraordinary judges in Washington. One of the Judges of the Court i which this trial is preceeding, not very long since interrupted counsel in his opening of a case, with the observation, “ Oh, you need not say ano- ther word on the subject ; I heard all about it in the mar- ket this morning.” T' are many other similar anec- dotes current in the Di ict of Columbiato the same ef- fect, by which the fitness of some of the Judges may be tested. Thecounsel for the prisoner are also asserting that their client is the victim of a conspira ‘This is a defence. Whether the jury will convi:t him or not to be seen, butthere is certainly much testimony iy given, which connects him with the stolen trea- sury notes. Much irrelevant matter appears to have been admitted in the trial, much excitement got up, and it pro- mises to occupy meny days longer.

The Restaue rant is open at all houtr, and in abundance and vari- ety cannot be surpassed, Cruizine In THE GuL¥.—In commenting upon an article on the subject of “American Commerce in the Gulf,” that recently appeared in the New Or- leans Bulletin, the Pensacola Gazette of the 22d ultimo, makes the following observations, interest- ing, we presume, to our commercial frends :— During the existence of the West India Squadron as formerly organized, one or more vessels, and ofien the eutire equadron, were kept cruizing in the Guilt of Mexico. Since the establishment of the “ Home Squadron,” Commodore Stewart has had at various times, nearly every vessel of his squadron in the Gulf, The Falmouth and Dolphin were up- wards of a year cruizing between Very Cruz and this port. The Vineeones, caly six months from New York, hes been irds of that time in the Gult of Mexico, visiting alternately Vera Cruz Tampico and Campeachy, and we are informe that her services were not required at either place, nor could her commander learn of any instance, in which our “commercial marine” had been inter- fered with. | Various statements have been made by masters of vessels, that during the recent difficulties between Yucatan and Mexico at Campeachy, several Ameri- can merchantmen were forced, for want of the pre- sence of an American man of war, to claim the protection of the French corvette La Brilliante, then off that place. If such was the tact, itis very singular that neither the commander of that ship, or the American Consul at Cammpearhy, never heard of the occurrence—and we are credibly informed, that no such protection was ever required or asked for, although fully satisfied that Commodore Regnaud would have rendered all the aid in his power. During the blockade of Campeachy, the U S. brig Dolphin vigited that port, but her commander did not deem it proper to remain, after having been notified by the commander in chief of the Mexican blockading squadron, that the place was invested by sea and Nand, and receiving assurances that American vessels eproaching the coast should bein- formed of the blockade, and ordered off without further molestation. There is nothing satisfactory to prove that those promises were ever violated. ‘The condition and extent of ourcommerce in the Mexican ports bordering on the Gulf, appear to be little known or understood at a distance; compared | with that of England, France and Germany, our trade with those places is but trifling. In thefour prin- cipal ports, viz: Vera Cruz, ‘Tampico, Campeachy and Matamoras, there are not to exceed three Amer- ican c mmercial houses of any standing, who are engaged ina purely mercantile business; indeed it is sate to say, that with the exception of a highly re- spectable firm at Vera Gruz, there are none whe really have any American interestsat stake. If the question is asked, how is this? the answer is plain— the unsettled state of the country, by which the emuggler and the lawless adventurer have been en- abled in the most open and undisguised manner to carry on their operations, to the great detriment of the honest American merchants, most of whom have thus been driven fromthe country. | i Another serious objection to cruising in the Gulf of Mexico is the eituation of its sea ports, which are mostly ata distance from deep water, their entrances being obatructed by bars, over which vessels draw- ing above ten or twelve feet water cannot enter.— At Vera Cruz, the principal port, men of war are not permitted to lay opposite the city, but are compelled by a regulation of the Mexican Government, to an- chor off Sacrificios, a barren Island nearly four miles from the town. ‘A vessel of war in time of peace can do much to prevent depredations upon our commerce, but toef- fect that object she must be seen. Merely cruizing abouton the “thigh seas” will not answer the pur- pose. Those upon whom it would be desirable to make an impression, know nothing of her or the powers of the country of which she isthe represent- ative, and in nothing is our country and commeree so much benefitted as by the appearance of her ships of war in a foreign port, surrounded by merchant- men, visited by its inhabitants, and interchanging civilities. Then the American resident engaged in business, feels his security—for in the event of any difficulty, he knows he canbe protected. The few Americans residing along the Mexican coast would obtain but trifling protection from a man of war compelled to anchor at a distance cf ten or twenty miles off, asthey are obliged to do at Tampico, Gray aaa and Matamoras. For, how- ever great the force might be, of what use is it, if it cannot be made available? Boat expeditions are imprudent unless in extreme cases, for what is to become of « hip if overtaken (as is frequently the case) by a Norther, and the principal portion of the officers and crew absent! Why, inevitable loss. There is but one point against which our vessels of war could act with any certainty in the Gulf of Mexico, and that is at Vera Cruz, and then only with a large force. i ‘ No place in this section of the country is more interested in keeping a large naval torce in the Gulf of Mexico and the West Indies than Pensacola.— But we would have this force so organized and dis- posed of as to render the greatest benefit to our trade andcommerce. Itshould be in this manner: —A squadron or vessel, after refitting and sailing from this port, should run down to the mouth of the Mississippi, thence stretching over to Cape Antonio, a.ong the north side of the Island of Cuba, looking into the different ports, which are ail easy of ac- | cess—passing between Cuba and St. Domingo to indward Islands, thence returning by the seuth side of Cuba to Pensacola. By this route our vessels of war would be constantly in the track of the merchantmen, as nearly ail our trade in the | Gulf is confined to that porticn of it which forms the outlet {rom New Orleans, Mobile and the coast of | Florida, to the Atlantic. ‘They would thus be ena- bled to protect our commerce and assist vessels in distress. In cruizing in the Gult (after passing be- yond the Mississippi) it is not uncommon to pass weeks at sea without ever meeting a vessel or mak- in aarp Sn RR ee Ae ‘nis, or some. similar disposition would have more effect in giving protection, than the present | system of cruizing, where the intervals of visit are necessarily great and the periods uncertain. News rrom Tux Interior or Texas.—We have endeavored to keep a sharp look out upon the mili tary and naval sffairs of Texas, and congratulated ourselves that we had pees race with the stirring events ef the * Gult.” e have been too slow however, in keeping the run of affairs, and feel | highly indebted to the ‘* Redlander,” published at | St. Augustine, for the following brilliant achieve- | ment of Com. Moore. We entertain for the Com- | modore, personally, the most unstinted regard. We | admire his courage, his bearing, and all those ele- | ments which unite to make him a distihguished leader in times of peril ; but we must express a ve! considerably sized doubt as to the truth of the fol- | lowing fling from a Texas journal. The mistaken accounts ot the event goes to show what could be | said upon such a contingency. Speaking of the bat- |e with the British steamer Guadaloupe, in the | Mexican service, the Redlander says:— The Commodore and his crew had strong induce- | ments to ** hazard all upon the cast of a single die.” We had anticipated an extraordinary effort by the | Commodore, but we dreaded the consequence. We did not think it poesible for him to succeed, when | the chances were so much against him, and hence | our decided disapproval of his disobedience of | orders, when the prospect of accomplishing any thing advantageous to the country, was so gloomy. | While we must ever disapprove of any inferior officer disobeying the orders of his superior, w | most, nevertheless, admire that heroic valor which prompted the Commodore and his crew, to prefer a watery grave to the disgrace which would inevita- bly have been fastened upon them, had they failed | of success. The capture of the,Guadaloupe will be the cause of much diplomatic quibbling. Mexico will, no doubt, (set on by Great Britain) contend, in her treaty with Texas, that the Guadaloupe is not a law- ful prize, from the fact that Com. Moore was acting | without the sanction of his government. It would | seem, at first blush, that this question would be set- tled by ascertaining the guilt or innocence ot Com Moore. But then again it is eyident that Texas can not be held responsible for the acis of Commodore Moore, and therefore, cannot lawfully claim the spoils of his victor Then—Query! if Com- Moore acted *‘ upon his own hook,” to whom does the Guadaloupe belong? Individuals witheut let ters of Marque and Reprisal, or any other authority from their government, sailing upon the high seas, arrayed in a warlike manner, seeking whom they may devour,” are usually deemed pirates, and, of course, can make no lawful captures. If, however, it should turn out, a8 we sincerely hope it will, that | Commodore Moore has never disobeyed orders, and the prize is a lawful one, Texas can be somewhat scrupulous in accepting terms of peace from Mexi- | | co. We fear that there is too much good news afloat for itallto be true. First comes the President's proclamation, suspending all hostilities against our enemy, on account of the propositions of Santa Anna for peace. Next comes the news of the capture of the Guadaloupe by Com. Moore, painting in glowing colors the splendor of the victory Time will tell the tale correctly.—N. O. Herald. Awrut Dratu.—A sid accident occurred on the 26th nit ,at Davidsoa College, N. C., while some of the young men of the College were making ar- rangements to set off a fire balloon; a pan of apirits of turpentine caught fire, and in the burry of throw- ing the turpentine out to extinguieh the flames, nearly the whole contents of the pan were thrown on Marshall Kennedy, a son of the late M, T.C.

The eating house inthe basement at the corner of Leonard and Centre streets, was flooded yesterday morning with water to the depth of several inches, and numerous basementsin Ca- nal, Pearl, Water, Front and Washington streets, are com- pletely inundated. The force of the rain during Satur- day and Sunday last, tended more towards the cleanliness of the streets of our city than all thecontract sweeping for the year, and it istherefore to be regretted that the continuance of the storm in filling the cellars may coua- teract the beneficial effects anticipated {rom the purifying the city by onu of the elements. Bitten ny 4 Map Doa.—Mr. John Vanorden, of 135 Reade street, was severely bitten in two placer, yester- day morning, by a large yellow dog, believed to be mad. Mr. V. was going to his place of business in Hudson street, and as he was about to step upon the stoop of the house, the dog, which was walking slowly by at the time, sprang instantly at Mr. V. and caught him by the right arm, near the place usually selected tu vaccinate producing quite a large and ragged wound with his tusks. Mr. V. threw him off, and in doing so fell himself upon the ground. He jumped up as soon as possible, but the dog, not yet satisfied, came at him again, inflic- ting another bite on his leg. He then made one or two attempts to bite a little girl, when he was killed by the lookers on. Len Becxen has published an affidevitn which idence to show that ¢ nocent.

Jowered from the dock, which struck the lad, and crus! ed his head into pieces, causing almost instant death. Ne blame can be attributed to the men who were engaged in lowering the boat, as they could not see the lad where hestood. An inquest was held on the body, and the Jury returned a verdict in accerdance with the abe ts. A Cup Daownen.—An inquest was held on the bod: of a young c ed but eight years, the son of Mrs. Margaret Wood, . 167 Greenwich street, which was found in the dock at the foot of Courtlendt etreet, on Wer nesday morning. The mother states that her boy left the house on Monday evening, about seven o’clock, with a little boat, as if with the intention ofssiling it, and the supposition is, that the poor fellow fell off the dock.

BY THE SOUTHERN MAIL, Stace FOR Hioure Waces Amono THE Weavers > or Moy. —These men, who three mont ago struck for Maher wages, have again deserted their looms and insist on an increase of their rates of weeres and yesterday, they committed some gross and outrageous acts. ‘The reason for the strike this time, appears to be this. Several weeks since the manufacturers determined to give the weavers a certain price for theirlabor, which they adhered to until a few days ago, when they were obliged to low- erthe sum, Owing to the extremely low prices the manufactured articles brought, or close their manu- factories The weavers objected to the price offer- ed them, declaring that they could not live at that rate, and therefore ualess they were allowed more for their labor, they would not work at all. Yesterday, they held a meeting in the Market in Eleventh street, below Shippen, and at eight o’clock they went ina body to Mr Dtxon’s factory, in Rose street, near Broad and Shippen, and meeting that gentieman, beat him in a most dreadful manner, but not before he had knocked several of them down. They then left the premises until about one o’clock, when they returned to it, and observing a dearborn in front of it filled with yarn, which was about to be sent to the Globe Mills tor the purpose of being twisted, they insisted on its being taken back to the factory, which, after much parleying on both sides, was done. In the course of the afternoon, a body of the wea- vers went to the house of Hance Miiligan, an honest, hard working man, residing in Milton street above Tenth, and demanded that he should stop work- ing. He refused to accede to it, and levelled a horse pistol at the leader of the party. ‘This threat to fire upon them had the effect of taaking them de- siet from their purposes for a few mivutee, when, in the meantime they were reiaforced by a lorge body of men, and at once forced the house ef Milligan, drove him from his loom, and broke it into a thou- sand pieces, and set iton fire. After committing this outrageous act, they left the premises, and up to the hour of seven last might, there were no fur- ther breaches of the peace and of order. A depu- tation of the weavers, proceeded up town, but for what purpose the Reporter was not able to learn. — Phil.

Hundreds are now complaining of severe pain in the right side and between the shoulder accompanied by a feeling of drowsiness and total incapa city for exertion of body or mind.

We would also state that Mr, Burd ‘had not used this salve but three days, when he was so completely cured as to be perfectly able to attend to his business. Mr. B. remarked to the editor that the cure was so very astonishing that if he said three days many would pronunce it almost impossible. But we will, let it be ever so strange, publish the whole truth, and then see ifany one will cry @ut it is impossible todo all we say it will. To the Editor of the Peekskill Republican: — 1 feel it my duty to address you, and the public through your columns, concerning @ point that I think of the high- est importance to the world at large ; and have thought for some time past, tba: I was in @ measure culpable in not addressing you before. The subject is one of vital importance, and I ask acon- spicuous place in your paper for its insertion. 1 was sfflicted in my eyes with inflammation, in its most severe form, and had given up all hopes of recovery, so far that after all other means had failed, I had perma nently made up my mind to become a subject of the in- firmary, and made my family acquainted with my resolve. Ia the meantime my wife was in the drug store of Jamis Brewer, of this place, and he presented her with one of Comstock & Co.’s pamphlets, 21 Courtlandt street, New York, ond on examination she found a salve highly re commended, named ‘Dalley’s Magic Pain Extractor,’ for burns, frost, and their tortures in every case subdued i five minutes —all injuries healed without scar. Inflamms- tions, mortification’ and swellings exterminated. Sore and weak eyes cured, and broken breasta healed. I looked at it as many others with a suspicions having had my prejudices against any thing in thi of patent medicines, I however bought a box ef the salve, and I solemnly assert I had not used it one week before I was 80 completely recovered a8 to be perfectly able to attend to my business. 1 keep it, and always shail, in my house, and find it answers for cut inflammator; diseases, and feel it aduty well asto the proprietors, earnestly and emphatically, to recommend it to the public as a sovereign remedy. To it, and it alene, I know, and am fully convinced that [am indebted for my sight, which I hope will be spology sufli- cient to sue ie and the public for the time and space Thave occupied in your columns. I feel it = duty to add to the above for the satisfaction of the most incredulous, that Iam in no way connected, by business or interest, with the proprictors of the above mentioned articles.
