There certawwly isa strange and mysterious revolu- tion of some kind coming to a head ia this happy land. The resu ts of the last election have set every body talking, guessing, philosophising, and calcu- lating. The Van Buren men consider the State re sults"& wonderful triumph. The free traders, or philosophical brokers, friendly to Calhoun, are Castiag about fora new move of some kind to es- espe oblivion. The suprorters of Mr. Clay are at a stand atill for want of money—while the American Republicans are determiaed to create a revolution from ead to end of the couatry, Political excitement is rapidly rising in this mr- tropolia—and so is the price of stocks. Nothing but morals are failing below the average. God only knows what we are coming to. Astonishing Exposure — Beach's Pigeons — Bengola Lights—Lottery Policies—Lottery Frauds, and Plainfield Bank. Toat fraud beget fraud is a trite but neverthe- leas a true saw, and never, perhaps, since the day that the old serpent deceived Eve in the garden ot Eden, was its mathematical certainty more con- c'usively proven, than during the present generation. Improvements have been made upon its face, in our peculiar age, that would astonish those of olden time, and cause them to stare with as much sur- prise as a Flat Head Iadian would at the sight of a locomotive engine. Ia these days, fraud is not on'y begot by fraud, to prevent its detection, but fraud itselt is aciually undermined by fraudulent means in order to advance the interests of those acquainted with its foundation. One of the most extensive frauds that has cursed our country, and been the means of the utter de- struction and ruin of thousands, is the lottery fraud. In this State they have been abolished, tis true ; but our neighbor opposite, in Jersey, aud in several other small S:ates, such as Delaware,Rhode Island, &¢ , sti!l sanction this wholesale sys:em of one-sided gambl.ng. Its abolishment in this city, ina legal sense, has amounted to very li'tl+, if any benfit, in a moral vi-w, as there are nearly i! not quite as many offices for the sale of lottery tickets nowas there were when sanctioned by the laws ol our State. Iaadditionto this,the system of insurance in effecting policies on the drawn numbers, has caused the estabitsiment of nu neroas offices who make that ‘h-ir sole busiaers, and receive large profits by their operations. This branch: of the lo'- tery system may be termed fraud upon fraud, and from this has risen a third movement, which sustains the truth of our first position, of fraud underunning fraud iteelf. We have in our possession not only the full par- ticulars, but the names of all the parties concerned, in the recently well organized system of telegraphs to convey the drawa numbers of the New Jersey Lottery to Albany, within a few mioutes after the time of their drawing at Jersey city, the object of which is and has been to take advantage of the Al- bany Lottery Dealers, by purchasing Policies on numbers thus known by those concerned in the telegraph. This scheme has been ia embryo for nearly eightesn mo iths, but has been accomplish: edonly afew days. Tne first day they walked in- to the policy dealers of Albany to the tune of near- ly one thousand dollars, and would have followed it up to a large amouat, if certaia causes had not prevented the progress of the ‘elegraphs tor a short period. The experiment has been atteaded with considerable expense and several persous who were originul'y iaterested in its success, have withdrawn, being fl-eced of all their faads by the partaers now reaping the benefi s. The plan of operations is sim- ple in the ex'reme, and the system of telegraphs is by lishts made similar to Bengola fire, of various co'o's, denoting certain mathematical calculations. Men are stationed with these ligh's on the several high points of ground between this city and Albany, as follows: — , Ist station, New Durham, 7 mil-s above the Jersey City do Torn Hill Perr: 31 do Haverstraw Height it #a do Bali Hill. Sth do Cold Spring. 6th do New Paltz Landing 7th do Catskill Mountain, Sth do Clinton Hotel, Aimany. Tne Lotteries at Jersey City are generally drawn ata late hour inthe afternoon, and as soon as the Sua is below the horizon, these lights are raised, and the telegraph of the numbers is completed al- most instantly, when the partners at Albany take advantage of the fraud upon fraud, thus obtained. To produce the same objects with the Delaware Lottery, the same scheme has been effected, but the use of carrier pigeons has been found to be more serviceable for this long and level distance of terri- tory, as the stations are so numerous that the ex- pense is burthensome. Not only have persons been recently training pigeons for this purpose, but from the top of the office of “The San” newspaper building at the south west coraer of Nassau and Fu'- ton, can be seen a cupola and pigeon coop o! im- mense dimensions, filled with birds that some one in thatestablishment appears to be training for some peculiar purpose. Is it through this means that M. Y. Beach intends to obtain information a day in advance of the public of the closing of the Platafield shinplaster “Bank,” as it is called, in order to pre- pare himseif for the erush that will follow, or is some one in that establishment, not only a silent but an tive partner ia the fraud upon fraud lot- tery schemes of the present diy? Let any one cast their eyes to the top of Beach's office for the redemption of Plainfield money, and cbserve the crowded pigeon coop, and then imagine the pur- poses of such an addition to his establiahment. If Beach is interested in these lotteries, thore in the fecret snould expose it, as his daily professions of friendship, and accommodations to dealers in a emal! way, on short loans at hig) interest, has iv- duced them to believe that he wou'd be the last per- son endeavoriog to ruin their business ia this city and Albany. Let ushave a full exposition of the pigeon system, as well as of the telegraphs Massacuusetrs Evecrion.—Taere was a general electionin Massachusetts on Monday.

There were no noisy, tumultuous, ebulli- tons of excited feeling, albeit there was no defi ciency ofenthusiasm. Even the cheers ot the mul, tude sounded heartier and more sincere thau those which usually emanate from the popular tnroat, and the interjaculatory remarks which occasionally burst from persors ia the crowd, without the ribaldry or blasphemy which too often characterize those popular commentaries on public addresses, were yetas expressive, as much to the point, and as intel- ligibly indicative of the hearty goodwill, with which the whole mass of people assembled responded to the patriotic ceatiments of the epeakers. It may ap- pear incredible in describing a New York popular meetiag, but it is a solemn fact, that we did not ob- serve a single ragamuflin among-t the audience.

A very lurge and respectable meeting of the new Association of American Republicans took place ‘ast eveaing in their spacious and very elegant Hall. As this was the firet public assemblage of the aseo ciation since the election, we correctly supposed hat it would possees great interest and importance, and we accordingly dispatched our corps of reporters, who were very readily admitted, and received the most courteous attention from the polite and gentle- «manly officers of the meeting. ‘The room in which the meeting assembled, and which has with great propriety been designated “The American Republican Hall,” has, we under. stand, been recently fitted up expressly for the use of the association 11 is capable of containing at least shree thousand persons with comfort, altheugh pro- oably five or six hundred more could be accommo dated. At the head of the room is a full leagth portrait of the “Father of his Country,” in a very elegant frame, and at the other eud of the Hull, a very lurg+ painiog of the Signing of the Declara- tion ot ladependence, is suspended. Between the wiudows niches have bven made, for the ousts of distinguished American patriots and heroes. The mode of effecting its ventilation is most admirable, and altogether this Hall is much superior in its general arrangements to any other ia this city. We were particularly pleased in observing the excellent accommodations provided for the reporters. A small space, immediately in front of the platform for the epeakers, which ex- tends across the whole breadth of the Hall, has beenrailed im, and here several tables and com- tortab.e chairs have been placed for the use of the geatiemen of the press. Access to this le area, is by means of a passage under the platform, just as The appearance ot the Hall last evening was ex- Immediately behind the chair it ‘h the expressive, but somewhat quaint The Constitution inviolate,” in large gold he interesting proceedings cf the eveni several The gene. far differen, assemblages aspect of the meeting wai There was ar. un- Proceedings began, but they very repidly our, as if the atmosphere of so The great mass of the They gene Here you And here well wrapped up in a comfortable old fashioned ro- guelaure, and with well-kept chin buried snugly in the ample fur collar. The plattorm was occupied by twenty or upwards of the leaders ef the association, amongst whom we recognized several of our most respectable and influential citizens, numbers of whom have held offices of honor and trust, and earned that proud- est of all titles—that of an honest and faithful put- lic servant. The meeting was called to order at a few minutes past 8 o’clock, and Brssamin Franxuin Suit, Esq was called to the chair by acclamation. The following officers were then nominated and approved of unanimously :— Vick Paestoents. Hecu L Jackson, Axpsew J Waite, Epenezer Saneunn, Matenew Decame, Jexnmian Winstow, Joun AvaMs Brows, Pau J.

(Here the cont became very considers- len ing evidently dis- jolent language ond manner of the speaker, whilst a few encoureged him to go on. Mr Sweet was, however, finaly induced to sit down, and the harmony cud good order of the meeting was immediately restored.) Mr. Jerrrnson Smaci then rose end spoke at some length on the gross eorruption and wortblessness of both eolitical parties, ibited in their management of the municipol affairs of thecity. Brfore every charter elec tien it had been customary for these parties to promise a varisty of useful reforms. The streets were to be kept slean—an efficient police was to be organized—and the city expenditure was to be retrenched But alterthe viection, if any one reminded these gentry of their pro- mires, be wes met only by ridicule eod insult.

It was a disgrace tothe republican in- stitutions of thiscountry. There was actually'no police except the newspapers. The administration of justice in the criminal courts was most corrupt and inefficient.— {t is» paintul truth, said Mr. Smell, but it must be told— ffenders against good order and morals have not been dealt with, in all cases, in @ manner calculated to inepire much respect for our institutions, or ele vate us as a so body inthe eyes otetbers Even in instences where the \ffence war peculiarly aggravated, ivarmuch es it struck ‘rectly at the public interests and the general safety, and did not irjure a mere private individual chiefly, there hi heen a laxity—or indeed, to speak more accuratel: designate things by their proper names, « shameless ab sence of all action on the part of therecognized guardian ofourtempies of justice, and the supremacy of the law Criminals of the worst character have been sufferid to continue their polluting presence in asociety which they had dishonored and disgreced, and against whove reputa ‘ion and welfare they hed aimed the deadliest bloxs — (Loud applause) Again, in other instances, when owing ‘o the fidelity of some particular officer of justice, or the persevering energy of the private prosecutor, offenders have been brought to (rial, there have been go repeatedly exhibited nnwarrantable delay in the it fliction or inade- toy in the measure of punishment, that the legal for- ‘nalittes have bern converted into ‘arsical ponentities.

Morton is gone to the dogs, and Mr. Webster was half through a dish of capital cola chowder when our expressleft. —_—_—_—_———————— Ctiregr Sutrs anp Crirrer Buies.—St. George, is the name of a splendid new ship uow in this port, loadiog for Liverpool. We saw her yesterday, and were much pleased with the besu'y of her model, the strength and compactness of her hull, the neat arrangements of her cabin, and the skill of her captain. Tais ship was built in Newburyport, and reflects @ great deal cf credit on McKay & Fickett, her builders. All but the carved work was done ie that thriving place, where ship building seems to be oo the increase. The carved work is excellent, con: sisting ofa fulllength figure of St. George on her bows, and the same romantic philosopher of the middle eges engaged in fight with the Dragon, on herstern. On each side of the last named St. George, are the elements of the wealth of England and America, in the shape cf bales and boxes of manufactured goods for the former, and plovgha, beehives, and asheat of wheat, for the latter. This carved work, however, epeaks for iteelf, Icis useless to make compa isons between the St, George and the Roscius, Queen ot the Weet, or any other ship built inthis city. Our ehipwrights turn off magnificent veesel:, almost as fast as our double cylinders tur : off Heralds,aud we can,there- tore, well afford to be generous and give to the build- ers of the St George all the credit they deserve,and that is considerable. For a vessel of her size,and ia- tended for the freighting business, she will com- pare with most any ship of the same kind efloat. She 1s 146 feet long, 35 feet 6 inches broad, 82 feet deep and 7 feet 8 inches between decks, making 850 tons by measurement. She has extra transom knees and double water ways bolted through- out. She has a cabin fitted up very neatly to accommodate from six to ten passenge! cludiog baggage and champagne, and cargo room enough to carry twenty-eight hundred bales of cot- ton. With this cargo she will draw but fourteen feet of water. We understand that she is to leave for Liver ool about the 20.h inst , under the command of Vaptain Ferns, long and favorably known as an experienced navigator of this port. That she will cross the At- lantic in as short a time as any vessel, we have no doubt. Another vessel, now in port, that we must notics, is the Eagle, a clipper brig, of decidedly rekish ap- pearance. She is a perfect sea dandy, and will dance over the water at the rate of twelve to filteen miles an hour, as easily as Fashion run four milee over the Union Course in 7.82. We here give her dimensions, fer the purpose of showing cff the beauty of her limbs :— Length on deck. Breadth .... Depth of hold... Depth of keel .. Tonnage 323 73-95, +++ 126 feet 8 inches. ++ 26 feet 1t inches. + 10 feet 6 inches. ++ Sheet 6 inches. She mounts six long 6 pound cannon, mounted . on mahogany carriages, and carries emall arms. It is intended that the Eagle shall sail in a few days for China, under the command of Captain J. Sher- man, who commanded the Antelope, and who navi- clippetato the tune of “Dance, boatman, by arriving at Canton ahead of every one who happens to start in company with him. She ie averfect bijow in ship building. Tt matters not to us what trade ghe is engaged in, after she reaches the China seas. Packet Suir Susrriecp.—This packet ship has been got eff by the aid of steam pumps and tug boats. This is probably fortunate for the insurance companies. We are glad to learn that the pasar n- gers have not forgotten Capt Popham. They have presented him with a raguificent tawily bible, with the following inscription :— “ Presented to Ceptain Cuanurs W. Portas, by the ca- bin passengers of the ship Sueffi ld, Suad-y, November 12, 1843, in gratetul acknowledgments of Mand uanvaryiog kindness, shown throughout their boisterons voyage trom Liverpool to York ; and especiaily exhibited amid the wreck o' shatteld, on the Ro- where she was stranded, while in the charge of the pilot, on Saturday, November 11, 184 the Holy Bok of God is closed by those whose na are under writ most becoming memoral of thei but the enie and faithful instru. ds of Him to whom they looked in the hour of their danger, as their sureand only protector. Thisis right. Captain Popham deserves all praise for the courageous exertions he made to save his ship and the lives of his passengers. Ore Butt, rraom No«way, Tux Prince or Vie- Lintets.—The Chevalier Oie Bull, who is censid+red as the first of all living violiniate, will arrive in New York, in the Caledonia, about the end of this week. Ole Bull would have sailed in the Britannia, but for an attack on his person, in the streets of London, by three ruffians, who sought to drag bim out of his carriage, and who were defeated in their designs by the vigorous resistance of the assailed party, and by the approach of various persons to the spot where the outrage was perpetrated. Ole Bull, however, peppered one of them. An indisposition, consequent upon the accident, retarded the departure of Ole Boll fora few days. We shall soon, however, have an opportunity of admiring this most wondertul of all the performers uron the violin. The Caledonia sailed on the 4th instant, and may be expected on the 18:h. So pre- pare. Tueatricats —Mr Booth and James Wailack are acting together at the Park. Mr. Hackett will follow atthe Park, and will re- vive Macklin’s “‘ Man of the World.” Charlotte Cushman is playing with Macready at the National, Boston. She played with him at the Chestnut, and, it is said, she will perform with him at the Park, and also accompany him on his south- era tour. There isalso an on dit that she will visit London, and perform under his auspices upon the London stage. Max Bonaxr.—This gentlemen and his soa sailed yesterday in the steamer Natchez for Ha- vana.
