quences. The result of the election on Tuesd astonished the whole city. Many of avery san- guine temperament supposed that the American ot “* Reform party” might obtain @ controlling influ- ence in the Common Council, but very few expect- ed that both the old factions, the whigs and loco- focos—particularly the former—would be covered with such overwhelming defeat. ‘ Young Ameri- after an agitation of a few months, has pro- duced a result which willastonish the whole Union. Yet if we come to look over the history of the last few years—to inspect the misgovernment of both parties in this city—to scan the folly, the presump- tion, the impudence, and the dishonesty of the lea- ders of both factions, we need not be surprised at the unexampled revolution of Tuesday last. The causes of this revolution have been repeat- edly referred to by us during the last few months, and the consequences that are likely to ensue been pointed out with more or less distinctness. These causes are on the surface. Inthe first place, the attempt to make distinct appeals to the natives of Ireland as a race for the purpose of inducing them to vore en masse asa class at the elections—the meanness and duplicity of both the old parties in endeavoring to cajole these voters by flattering their prejudices, was the first prominent cause which led thinking men of all sects or religion, and of all races, foreign as well as native, to reflect on the evil tendencies of such a system. The organi- zation of the Irish by Bishop Hughes himself, into a distinct and seperate element, constituting the ba- lance of power between the two old factions, con- tributed, we need not say, to give to this cause imn- mense additional importance and weight. In this way the Irish were almost openly put up by&their leaders to be bought by the highest bidder, and this state of things led to the enactment of the present school law, which involves a very nice aad delicate question connected in the closest manner with the religious feelings and prejudices of great masses of the population. In thismovement—the intriguing and coquetting for the Irish vote—both the old parties were alike criminal, and their conduct equal- ly offensive. {n addition to all this,we had the Re- peal Associations, presenting the Irish again, in an attitude calculated to increase and render still more violent the prejudices against them as a class, inasmuch as it was evident that this collecting of them in masses and agitating them on a question connected with a foreign land, was but another trick by means of which to lead them to the polls in masses. Thus was created one of the causes of the late revolution. But above and beyond these influences, which were the germs of the revolution, was the disgust and indignation awakened by the total misgo- vernment of the city, as exemplified in the admin- istration of its affairs by both parties, during the periods in which they alternately possessed the power in the corporation, for many years past. This misgovernment had increased to such an ex- tent, as to awaken and arouse the indignation of the whole population of this mighty metropolis. A principle of justice and of common sense was at the bottom of this astounding revolution, and the shackles of party were broken in pieces on the day of election. In this great movement for reform of the city government, we believe that large masses of the naturalized citizens, not connected with the repeal associations, united, without refe- rence to any particular feeling or prejudice in cer- tain portions of the reform party inst the place of their birth. It will, therefore, appear, that a conjunction of numerous and influential cau: has brought on that crisis in the public affairs of this city, which has resulted in this remarkable revolution—a revolution which conveys to all po- liticians, in a very impressive manner, the lesson, that there is a point of misgovernment bey which the people will not permit any party to gc. k ought also to convey to all purty leaders the les- gon to be faithful to their promises ; and should teach the party who have accomplished it, the ur- gent necessity of « prompt, full, and faithful per- formance of their promises. Thus has the revolution been complete. What now are to be its results? What are to be its con- sequences? Whatareto be its effects on the go- vernment of the city?) What influence will it exer- cise on the movements of parties and the politics of the country? The first thing which the people of this city will expect from the new corporation, when they get into office, will be a complete reform of all the branches of the city government. There must be no faltering—no shrinking—no truckling—no inde- cision—no semblance of infidelity to their solemn promises. This new party must pay specie on de- mand, or else at once shut up shop forever. The police department must be completely reformed— the fire department must be remodelled—a s| for cleaning the streets must be adopted—the finan- cial condition of the city must be rigidly exa- mined—the amount of the city debt and the value of its property correctly ascertained—the whole maunicipal affairs must, in brief, be probed to the very bottom, evilsredressed, and reforms at once introduced. But it may be a question amongst many persons, whether a new party, flushed witii such a triumph, will content themselves with the bare carrying out of municipal reform—whether they will not imme- diately look beyond the limitsof this city, and take partin the politicsof the State and the Union.— It is highly probable that they will do so. We conceive that the whig organization is in a dangerous predicament from the triumph otf the new party. It is true, the particular frends of Mr. Clay in the city may now organize them- selves after this astounding revolution, and en deavor to move for the Presidential contest iz the fall with all their forces. But it is a question whe- ther the American party will not continue and ex- tend its movements and go for a repeal of the natu- ralization laws, and also ef the School law, so as to operate on members of Congress and of Assem- bly at the election next fall. Indeed, flushed as they are with success, we should not be surprised to see them repudiate the Presidential candidates ef both the old parties, and take up some new man —General Scott, or General Cass, or some other man yet in the womb of futurity. One remarkable feature about this revolution, has been its reliance on moral force. It has been a great moral movement. In all the party agita- tions and movements, this has been apparent. An immense number of the ‘‘ reform party” ure mem- bers of the Temperance society—all their promi+ nent leaders are Temperance men—theit Mayor has long been an ardent and influential friend of that cause. And whilst alluding to this point, it is impossible to avoid mention of the extraordinary order and decorum which reigned at all the polls. Here we had fifty thousand adults going up to the polls and taking part ina most excited election, and yet the city was as quiet, nay we believe more quiet, than usual. No one could have imagined from any external indications that the keenest and most excited political contest that ever took place in the city, was going on. All was peace, order, and quietness. No rioting—no outbreak—no mobs —ho breaches of the peace, except, late at night, a few drunken quarrels amongst the lowest row- dies, This was, indeed, asublime moral s —a glorious practical vindication of the excellence of our institutions. It was adding tke lineaments of the Sabpath to an ordinary election day I was the cause, the struggle and the sublime tr- umph of the Bible! Ever since this new party, which has attained this peaceful, but most signal victory, came dis: tinetly into the field, we have watched its move- pec! the same diseretion atid the same libe the meantime, we have no doubt that their future proceedings will be marked by good sense. ‘They must be aware that they now occupy @ most im- portant position, and that the eyes of the country are upon them. Every one is saying to his neigh- bor— What next ”— What will they do next 7” | © What is the next movement of Young America ?” Let us all wait and see, Bap Srintr.—In a large meeting at Miltary Hall, Bowery, held on the night of the election, we un- derstand that Mr. Sammons, of the Third Ward, made a strange attack upon the Herald and its edi- tor, and certainly without sufficient provocation on the part of that editor or any other personage. He called the Herald—the cowardly and infamous Herald” —“the tool of James Gordon Bennett”— spoke of promulgating the vilest falsehoods”— “fraudulent purposes”—*vile man?—“foreign li- | beller’—*slanderous journal”—and other equally | characteristic elegant rhetorical flourishes, and all | this because one of our reporters made, as Mr. | Sammons alleged, some mistake or omission in re- porting his speech delivered during the great mass meeting in the Park on Monday afternoon last.— Mr. Sammons even goes so far as to say that the editor of this paper altered the reporter’s notes — This is really laughable, when it is the fact that the editor of this paper has never read the speech in question, and relied on the accuracy and discre- tion of his reporter, who had no motive to forget his duty to give a faithful report, and who did so to the fullest extent, as is proved by the certificate of a gentleman who attended there for another paper, and who states that the report of Mr. Sammons’ speech, which appeared in the Herald, was, “throughout, pertectly accurate.” This statement, with the signature ot the reporter who thus en- dorses our report, is now before us, and it can be substantiated by scores of auditors if necessary.— This Mr. Sammons, then, is without the shadow of an excuse for his paroxysm of bad temper on the occasion in question. We hardly know what to say of this strange at- tack, and are quite at a loss to understand the object of Mr. Sammons. Throughout the whole of last winter and the spring we gave more aid and expended more money in advancing the movement of ‘*Young America” than any other journalist in this city. At the commencement of the agitation, we pointed out in a practical way the best mode of conducting it, and which was in a great measure adopted by the leaders of the party, whose attention was thus directed to city re- form, instead of mere vague generalities. Our re- porters (the most accurate in this city, as everybody ality; and, m " | Morgan Lewis, At four o'clock, yesterday afternoon, took place the obsequies of the late General Morgan Lewis. For at least two hours previous to the time appointed for the removal of all that was mortal of present year, which was presented by Messrs. | [ the soldier, the patriot fand the Christian, the vici- nity of his residence in Leonard street, and those adjoining, was occupied by a mass of the citizens of New York and other places, many of whom came from a great distance to pay the last tribute of regard to his memory. It was easy to perceive from the demeanor of the spectators—so different | from that thoughtless apathy and unguarded levity which characterize too often large bodies, even on serious occasions—it was easy to perceive that on this solemn day the feelings of each and every in- | dividual were touched—that the old associations which, like the laurels round his brow on the battle | field, were entwined about his name and career— went home to their hearts, and that the impressions, of which they Jwere the subjects, were affaithful | counterpart of those produced on the common- wealth by the loss of one of her most illustrious | sons, As we regarded the sedate, decorous and subdued demeanor of the thousands around—the concen- trated gaze of the multitude, at the gradual progress | of the sad preparations, we felt a realization of the | A, poet’s words— But though his life hath passed away, Like lightning on a stormy day, Yet shall his death hour leave a track Of glory permanent and bright, ‘To which the brave in atter ages— ‘The patriot brave—shall long look back With fond regret—and by its light Shall tend the cause of truth and right— Shall act like him, as men and sages, It was considerably after four o’clock before the procession departed. The delay was occasioned by the arrival of a succession of carriages, whose owners came to bida long and silent farewell to the General’s remains. There was a bril- liant display of military pomp—-of the dazzle, and display, and “circumstance” of the sol- dier. There was the muffled drum, and, more than that, more than one or two old fellow warriors, looking on at the solemn arrangements which possessed for them more than a common in- terest, for their looks betrayed it. As the coftin reached the outside an aged man, who was stand- ing within a couple of yards of us, said to another, who as well as the former appeared to be them- selves some of the brave “hearts of oak” of the ‘olden time”—‘*There goes the last march of the General.” ‘Yes,” replied the other, ‘‘but it’s to head quarters.” The simplicity of language and deep pathos of manner made the little dialogue potent. i : The procession having formed, moved eff in the following order:— Military officers, repres cor] entatives of the different city four abreast, knows,) were alwaysin attendance at any important meeting of this party, and in our editorial capacity we were ever ready to give aid, advice and encour- agement to them. We wanted a reform in the city government, and we saw hope of it in this move- ment, and therefore we gave to it our support and aid, and that at a time when the other papers were not only refusing all aid, even that of noticing their meetings, but abusing and misrepresenting the re- form party. But here, on the very evening of the day of triumph, we find this Mr. Sammons, a person claiming to be a leader of this party, coming for- ward, and on the most flimsy pretence, or rather no pretence at all, attacking this journal in the most outrageous manner. Why? We cannot tell —nobody can tell. Certainly this can do the party no good—it can do the cause no good—it can do poor Sammons himself no good. But it seems this individual, whom we don’t know, having never seen him, nor heard of him till we saw his name in our reports of the reform meetings, has been for a fong time in the habit of indulging in vituperation of this journal. But we allude to this attack only on account of the party with which this individual is connected, in order to show them that they must be very careful of the men they select for of- fice. It is hardly necessary to say that so far as we are personally conceraed, the abuse and violence is too insignificant for notice.

On no oecasion within our memory was that great thoroughfare so throng- ed; in some parts it was quite impracticable to pro- ceed, and nothing but a strong sense of respect, a deep feeling which tam’d the froward and mode- rated the eager, could have enabled the marshals to preserve order. On the arrival of the procession at the gate of St. Paul’s Church the whole line of military took open order, to leave a free passage tor the corpse and keep back the pressing crowd,who, not to be easily daunted, made a general rush over the high and pointed iron paling, for the purpose of accompanying the relics of Gen. Lewis within the sacred edifice, “When, through the long drawn aisle and fretted vault, ‘The pealing anthem swells the note of praise.” The church, however, was filled to excess by those who were in the procession, before whom the burial service was read ina most solemn and devout mannor, by the Rev Mr. Taylor. Tle cere- mony was concluded at a little before six, and the beautiful and highly impressive service was in per fect harmony with the marked feeling—the deep pathos which seemed to pervade every heart, and throw a more than evanescent gloom on the face of beauty, and more strongly marked features of male citizens | The remains of the late General Morgan Lewis will be removed from St. Paul’s Church, where they at present repose, to-morrow, for interment. A Powrre anp Pressinc InvrraTion TO THE Grave.—We have heard of pufls of the thea- tres—pufls of shops—-pufls of ships—pufls of character—pufls of every thing in this breath- ing world; but it has been reserved to the genius, the bold original talent of the ‘‘ Vice- President of the Greenwood Cemetery Corpo- ration,” to give us a regular, flaming, elaborate, downright puff of the grave. This has just made its appearance in the shape of an elegantly printed pamphlet, bearing the impressive title—‘* Green- woop Cemrrery--Report of the Vice-President, December 4th, 1843,”—and is one of the most paintuily amusing literary productions which has fallen into our hands for some time. ‘ Has this fellow no feeling of his business? he sings at grave- making,” was the natural remark of Hamlet to Horatio, on hearing the song of the grave-digger when preparing the narrow house for the ill-fated Ophelia. We don’t know what the philosophic prince would have said to this highly-colored puff of the beauties and irresistible attractions of the “* Greenwood Cemetery.” “The prosperity of the Cemetery,” says the writer, “has been surely and rapidly advancing.” Look at the amazing, cold-blooded sang froid of the fellow! He absolutely revels in the rapidly augmenting putrescence of that charnel-house ! “It has been steadily acquiring a strong hold in the feelings of the community”—hear him! how he goes on—“and indications of a growing in- terest in its favour are now a rded so abundantly, as to warrant the belief that its success will exceed even the most sanguine expectations of its projectors and friends.”— How he warms with his subject as he proceeds; and with what chuckling, gleeful enthusiasm does he gloat over the cheering prospect of his grave- yard, well crammed with mouldering humanity ! We should really like to examine this man’s head —to examine it carefally—to look at his counte- Nance—to trace its curious lines—to see if, indeed, Spurzheim and Lavater are o be believed. Buthe goes on and describes, in glowing language, the beauties, natural and acquired, of this, his Elysium —its “rustic lodges’—its ‘rustic towers”—its “ heavenly toned bell, weighing about 600 pounds” —its delightful ‘“‘avenues,” fringed with new made graves—its “ verdure dd beauty”—its highly “ornamental receiving tombs"—its “ entire ar- rangements pertaining to interments, whether in vaults or in graves, studiously made with reference to evident decency and propriety, and in confor- mity tothe peculiar feelings and sensibilities of re- latives and friends,” (we wonder he did not add “the comfort of the dead”)—are all dwelt on with great spirit, and poetic feeling. Nor is this all, “An artist of eminence” has been engaged to take views of the tombstones, and * interesting points of netural scenery,” which are to be “ engraved in ahighly finished style,” for the purpose of serving as delightful souvenirs, to be “presented to distant friends of the departed.” What a considerate, dear, obliging, thoughtful, af- fectionate creature this ‘ Vice President” must be! But he somewhat alarms us by the prophetic an- nouncement in the concluding phragraph of his singularly interesting report—‘‘indicationsnot to be mistaken of a greatly increased patronage in the future are daily perceived.” {leaven preserve What terrible wholesale operations of death doe: this portend? Is pestilence soon to spread her poisonous wings over our devoted city? Or is it that the pieture of the sweets of “Greenwood Cemetery,” as drawn by the pencil of “Mr. J A Perry,” is so attractive, so fascinating, so irresis- tibly wooing, that crowds will be flocking to the gates of his earthly paradise, implcring him to be #0 good as at once to bury them, even before they are dead? | Iveerestind Rerort or te Boarn or Epvca tion.—This Board met last evening, and adopted the following interesting report relative to the ap- portionment of the Public School Morey for the ‘Townsend Harris, Isaac A.
