It is almost impossible to enter into an analysis of the absurd sayings and doings, and ridiculous things with which this Chevalier became connected, as appears by his own correspondence. One thing, however, is evident, from the beginning of the cor- Macs: ‘Tusepar, May 7th. respondence to the date to which we have now ar- American aor for Meliorating of the Jews—Taber- | rived—for we have many additional letters to give "ree —and that is, that every statement which this man Poceiga Evangelical Society—Reformed Dutch church, | yr | At 8 Mat every i C milliner has made to the New York papersin rela- tioa to our disinterested conduct towards Fanny Elssler, has been proved to be an arrant and delibe- rate falsehood.

Gough, it is utterly impossible to enumerate the va- rious points in these letters which show the shocking character of this man—his utter destitu- tion ofall truth, honor, manliness, and integrity. His folly and impudence are equalled only by his want of veracity. The correspondence is, indeed, the most paintully elaborate exhibition of combined silliness, ignorance, and falsehood, which has per- haps ever been presented for the warning and in- struction of mankind. We have known fools who yet regarded truth, and would have scorned to stoop tu deliberate falsehood. We have known, also, liars, who, although it added to their infamy, were yet intelligent and sensible. But here we have a a hybrid sort of character, combining fool- ishness and falsehood to an unparalleled extent. In one of the letters published to-day, he very de- liberately asks us to publish a card and append to it the name of Mr. Stout. This forgery he asks us to commit, with as much nonchalance as on the utterance of any of his talsehoods, just as if he really expected that we would deliberately go to work and forge Mr. Stout’s name on his responsibility. Then, if aa illustration of his morals were wanted, look at the story con- nected with Mrs. Vallee and her children. Look at the meanness withwhich he attempted to tob off this poor woman who had a claim of $26, by desiring her to write to me, and through my” influence get —‘ingular Pros- The Presidential Qucati. pects. The question of the next Presidency becomes More and more interesting—more and more in- volved in mystery—more and more full of excite- ment and eifort, on all sides. ‘Ths far the whigs have had the advantage of anion in their ranks, growing enthusiasm, and the clearest of fields. Their principles and their men are before the nation, in the broadest form and in the most candid shape. The whig convention, in nominating Clay and Frelinghuysen, did not pass over in silence their principles and measures, as they did in 1840. They have boldly flung their banner to the breeze, in this brief declaration of faith, which was adopted and passed by the con- vention last week :— Resolved, That in presenting to tne people the names of HENRY CLAY tor President, and THEODORE FRELINGHUYSEN for Vice-President, this Convention is actuated the conviction that all the great principles of the Whig party—principles parable from the public honor and prosperity —will be maintained and advanced by the election ofthese can- didates. Resolved, That these comprising :— Ast. A well-regulated national currency. 2ad. A Tariff for revenue to defray the necessary ex- penses of the Government, and discriminating with spe- cial reference to the protection of the domestic labor of principles may be summed up as the country. payment from Mr. Simpson, whilst Fanny Elssi 3rd.

A reform of Executive usurpati lon! 6th. And generally such an administration of the affairs of the country ’ hall impart ty every branch of the pub- lic service the greatest practicable efficiency, controlled by a well-reguiated and wise economy. Here are six plain and distinct principles, in- volving every interest, which the whigs adopt as the banner under which they go forth to battle. On the subject of Texas, tuey are silent, which, with Mr. Clay’s letter before us, may be con- sidered a species of opposition, or at least a post- ponement, till Mexico agrees to such a measuie. With these men and measures, the whigs throughout the republic will now go to work—tra- vel the country over, speak, talk, reason, sing and sermonize until November. Such is the position of the whigs. What is the position and prospects of the democrats? Very bad —truely bad—almost hopeless—entirely despond- ing. Let us see. The democracy are in a state of great confusion and disanion, not only on their measures but, on their men also. First, of their measures.— in reference to a bank, or an institution furnishing a national currency, the democrats are opposed ; so also are they opposed to the distribution of the public luads, but on the Texas question, a protec- tive taritl, and a Presidential single term, they are divided and torn to pieces in the most melancholy manner The same disseasions also exist in reter: ence to f principal candidates tor office. For two or three years e wasa fierce contest between Calhoun and Van Buren, till the former withdrew, and now there is # strong opposition toVan Buren on account of his views on the tariff, Texas, and single-term questions—invulving, also, the succes- sion: But, above, all the recent election in Virginia has given a fatal blow to Van Buren’s chances of the nomination or availability. Even the Rich- have paid it at once! Then as to his ridiculous and impudent talk about his position and mixing in high society ; in one of his letters from Boston he details a state- ment that “ we,” that is Fanny and himself, ‘dined with the highly respectable Mr. Otis, and a distin- Guished circle, including John Quincy Adams, Judge Story and Professor Ticknor,” and that they all left the dinner party early, in order to “pay homage to Fanny at the theatre’—and all this he states with a request that we would publish it, in order to feed his vanity. But we had a little more sagacity than this fool imagined it possible for any one to, have, and this statement, which we don’t yet believe a word of, we nailed to the counter, like many of his other fabrications. So with regard to bis assertion that we called upon him, and were pressing our civilities upon him, and following him and Fanny Elssler, Why every letter that we publish proves the utter falsity of his statement. In every letter,it is seen he is tor- menting and pressing us continually to say this and to say that—to publi-h this and to publish that—to puff in this way aad to puff in that way; and not | only did he thus annoy us by letter, but while in New York he was contiaually at our office boring | and teasing us to such an extent, that we had at last, on one occasion, to tell him that we would | kick him out of our office, and this was well known to all who were in at the time. Whenever | he got into a row, as at Coney Island—whenever he got into difficulty, as that with Simpson, and he was eternally getting into scrapes from his impertinence, folly, ignorance and presumption —whenever he got into trouble of any kind, he always came, as he says, “to hear what Robinson Crusoe would say!” We were his stay—his guide —his mentor—his “Robinson Crusoe,” in all diffi- | culties. a mond Enquire now admits it.

Shaler, and a do- zen others of the tlower of the Demo- cracy. The call of a meeting in the Park of all in favor of the annexation of Texas, brought together an immense crowd of at least ten thousand people. A platform was erected in tront of the City Hall, which was taken possession of by a rather mis- cellaneous crowd of persons who rushed torward and jammed up every available spot. The “ lone star” flag of Texas floated from the platferm. On motion, The Hon. J, H. Suypam was unanimously called to the Chair. On motion of E. S. Derry, Esq., the following | gentlemen were nominated Vice Presidents :— | John 1 Boyd, H. C. Towner, P. G. Moloney, Henry Raymond, John Le Count, | D. C, Broderick, Elijah F. Purdy, Wm. P Powers, Ed | ward J. Swords, Dixey, Eccles Gillender, Henry C. Atwood. On motion of Major G. E. Baldwin, the follow- ing gentlemen were appointed to act as Secreta- ries i— John Bogert, Geo. W. Niles, Henry P Barber, Wm. Francis, Edward Logue, Thomas Kelly, James Bergen, R. B. Connolly, &. Silberrad, John Orser, Geo. Weir, Ed’ ward Gallagher. When the meeting was fully organized, twenty-six suc cessive shots were fired from acannon, which was plan- ted near the platform, in honor of the twenty-six States, ‘The Cuatkman announced the next shot wasin honor of Texas, and that it should bearoarer. Texas would soon form the twenty-seventh State in the Union, and they should therefore pay her due honors, ‘The boom of the cannon at this fire reached through the city, and shook “Old Tammany,” from which proudly floated, mast high, the American flag. The flag of the Union also waved from the Astor House and the Museums The Park fountain sparkled in the sunshine—the breezes awept gaily through the budding trees—the boys shouted and hurraed—the smoke of the cannonaling cleared away—and the Chairman culled for three hearty cheers for Texus, which were given, and reverberated through theair. Three cheers werethen given for the States o! the Union, three for President Tyler, and the crowd being then very hoarse, the band struck up the “Star Spangled Banner.” Janes Bencen, Esq ,here came forward, and said he had received a letter of apology from Charles A. Clinton, in which the writer expressed his cordial concurrenoe in tht objects of the meeting, and was for immediate aunexa Mr. Bergen was in the act of reading the letter, when the platform gave way, and all who were upon it were preci- pitated, topsy-turvy, to the ground The reporter's table capsized, and one of our corps, who had been on duty at the time, was pitched on his back, and would have been seriously injured, had not Major Baldwin, who already lay prostrate on the ground, broken the full, the table h Ving protected him from above. ‘The gallant major and the reporter, however, were soon rescued. Mr. Bergen had bis knee severely lacerated, and other persons on the platform at the time were injured more or less. The “one star banner” proudly waved from a portion of the plat- form where it had been fixed, ‘unhurt amid the wreck of matter,” and some remarked ‘it was prophetic of the tri umphant and happy re-annexation with our uncenquered and growing Union, Mr. Bergen, notwithstanding the severe accident he met with, still mounted the last plank of the platform, and concluded the reading of the lett saying at the same time that broken Piatra, shattered! limbs, or the roar of the cannon, had no terrors for him in defence of Texas. The meeting here adjourned to the steps of the City Hall, when, H. P. Barner, Esq., came forward and read the resolu. tions amid loud calls for “Mike Walsh.” ‘The resolutions went fully into the question of annexa- tion—its advantages—and reviewed the whole history of ‘Texas, giving some very significant hints to England on the subject of interference with Texas. Mr, Barner, after he hud concluded reading the re- solutions, said he did not think it necessary for him to say a word in favor ofthem. ‘The object they contain- ed tiust be hailed by every American with feelings of pride and satisfaction. The fand which they were about to annex to their country was known to them, and was rich mn minerals vegetabies, and had the most fertile cli mate on the face of the globe. (Here the calls for “Mike Walsh” were repeated, and it was impossible to catch the words of the speaker.) When order was restored, he continued :—The Texans struggled for their indepen. dence and they won a glorious victory ; their indepen- dence being recognized by several of the nations. (Cheers and calls for ‘Mike Walsh.”) He would ask upon what groans did persons object to the eunexation of Texas to e United States? It was objected to by some on the grounds ofits bearing upon the slave question. ‘Texas would be in a much better condition than she was at this moment, by being attached to anether country—it would stre1 en her position ; and it manifest, that in re- lation to the slave question, whatever objection may be urged against annexation on that ground, the Union had power to dispose of it. (The calls here renewed for “Mike Walsh,” and some confusion p: crowd) ought to bejsolicited, Mexico ought not to be asked for her consent, as Texas had won her independence in 1824. The history of that memorable struggle wus fresh in the recollection of all. Santa Anna overrun the cenntay, and his forces were broken down, when Texas won her inde pendence and maintained it. ' This was recognized by the iree will of the people of the United States—it was recog- nized by France—by England—and by God (Vociferous cheers.) Texas now solicited to be admitted into the Union, the admission should be immediate, unconditional and vernal. (The cails for “Mike Walsh” were renewed, when Mr. Barber concluded.) A man of the name of JamrsF Draxr,who had, it appear- ed, been crushed down under the platform at its ‘fall, was here removed trom the Park on alitter. He received some severe Internal injury. Mr. Watsn here came forward, and said they were as- sembled to-day for the purpose of discussing a question, the magnitude and importance of which engaged the at- tention of every friend of freedom and lover of his coun- try in this free land. It was not a question of this day— nora question for themselves ; but it was a question for future generations, and one that would go down to_poste- rity with the names of those who were engaged in it. The splendid country they sought to annex to the Union, was them, it would be sev g theirrightarm. He knew that much had been said on the constitutional question of annexation; but when it was considered that the United States had recognized the independence of Texes for over eight years, and thatthey were bound to Texas by every tie that could bind sister to sister—or | land—they’were bound to aid ‘Texas, and protect her any aggression that might be made upon (Tremendous cheering.) ‘This attempt was made on the part of England to aggrandise herself, aided by some of the domestic tratora of the country who were leagued with the British government ; but America would talk out on this subject. “(Loud cheering) If those mer- cenaries that were sent hi from Englaud were sincere in their love for the sla they would find sufficient ob- jects for their sympathy in their own factories (cheers) — where the white al of England were doomed to a sort of werfship, that was more degrading in its charecter than any similar institution on theface of the globe. (Cheers ) It was mighty amusing to hear the old cronies that were collected together at the Tabernacle afew evenings back (laughter) t eak on this momentous question of the deepest national importance. Every face was white and callous with infamy, and every heart was black with trea- son. These fellows could not see the good that annexation roduce—taey saw no gond but in Spanish dol all of them were bank-men, or steck-jubuers—fe ows who ‘worshipped Mammon,—(Groans.)

It is evident by these indications from Vir. ginia and elsewhere, that Mr. Van Buren cannot be elected, in the midst of such dissensions in his ewn party. Even Virginia is ready to take “ any republican sooner than H, Clay,” in order to cou- cillate, and there are none others of any availa bility but General Cass or Commodore Stewart The whigs have adopted the principle of a single tern, and 119 general popularity wili force it, also, Upon the democrats. It will, therefore, be seen that the democracy will be ina very interesting position from this day up to the 27th instant, Ivis in the throes of labor of the most intense kind, Every thing will depend on the candidate selected by that Convention. If they select a proper man, the contest will be splen- did—it will be in a contest on measures and prin- ciples known to the whole world. If the whigs succeed in electing Henry Clay, a national bank will be established, if capitalists can be found a second time to trust their money in such an insti- tution. The proceeds of the public ands will be distributed to the States, and thereby State stocks may rise ia price. The present protective tarifi will be settled and fixed.

(Great cheering) They st: ask to be brought into our family, and here this day we have assembled to commune like freemen, and determine whether the request of these our brethren is to be granted, (Lond cheers, and cries of (It will—it must!)

The universal cry here For Texas! for Texas! now or never annexatic (Loud cheers, and cries of “It take us to take Texas ”— And, my friends, let me here for a moment advert to the contrast which this meeting presents to the manner in whiab great questions, affecting the interests of the peo- ple, ure decided in Europe. Could they dare there thus to assemble and commune together like freemen—like men whose interests were at stake, and whose opinion was, as it ought to be supreme? No, they dare nat—the people dare not thus assemble, There all this is done in the secrecy of the Cabinet chamber —(Cheers) And we should never forget the importance and the responsibilty of onr position in this lend of freedom We should never shrink ‘rom duty. And what is the great duty which now presents itself? Is it not to take these brethren of ours in Texas by the hand, and admit them into that great family whose liniaments they bear? Let us meet this ques- tion fairly. As you have been told, we—the people—are to do this work. It is not impossible to oxaggerate the impor- tance ofthis questior. It is a matter of greater moment than the last declaration of war with Great Britain—mighty as the declaration of independence in °76 -and the decision of this mighty “question is with the people. If they say, “Texas, re-annex,” Texas will be re-annexed. (Loud cheers.) The fiat’ of the people will go forth, and must beobeyed. (Renewed cheers.) What are the objections against this re-annexatien? We have the two political houses against it. Henry Clay is against it, because he he consent of Mexico. Mr. Van Buren rays that it is constitutional to annex Texas, but not till he be elect- ed President. (Laughter, and a voice called out, ‘ Don’ you wish you may get it, Matty,” followed by roars of laughter.)” And this is the amount of objection to annex. ation. As to the consent of Mexice, eontended for by Mr. Clay, I affirm that that is nothing under the law of nations; for if we want the consent of Mexico, we must go beyond her, and get thatof Spain. But I need not pur- sue this fallacy farther. It is a mere quibble on the part of Mr. Cly. (Loud cheers.) And then on the side of annexation, what an array is there of the patriot- ism, the wisdom, the brave the tried fidelity of our] glorious republic! (Loud cheera) We have the gallant old soldier, Richard M, Johnson—(loud ! soldier—the brave and honest patriot—an too, let me tell you. (Laughter and cheer: John C, Calhoun. (Tremendous cheering.) we? John Tyter. (Great cheering ) ‘es, John Tyler. a worthy son of old Virginia—of high honor, unsullied integrity, and tried patriotism. We have tried him and never found him wanting. (Great cheering.) Then there is another man, whom God will probably soon re- ceive into his paternal embraces—Andrew Jackson.— (Tremendous cheering.) He goes for Texas—now or never! (Cheers.) And now, fel'ow citizens, I conclude hy exhorting you to spare no effort mn order to carry this great measure. The stability of the Union itself—the na- tional honor—justice—humanity—every consideration which should impel us to generons, wise and juat action, demands the immediate annexation of Texas to this re- public. Mr. &, then retired amid enthusiastic cheers, Mr. Joun Commenronn here came forward, and in his opening remarks spoke of the present condition of Cana- da under British domination. He was for John T; and liberty—now or never—all money producing class trust. yourselves—every ene for self—liberty—no com. bined opposition—defeat efforta—independent of Texas— hurrah—good—three cheers for Tyler—three cheers for Calhoun—three for Texas—three for Jackson—hurrah— hurrah—good, very good. Here there rose loud cries of “ Atwood”— Atwood,” but Mr. Atwood not making his appearance, Mr Tasisrno mounted the stand and was received with loud cheers.— He then said—It has been well seid by one of the gentle en who have addressed you, fellow citizens, on this oc- casion, that freelom of opinion was the crowning glory of democratic institutions, and never has there been pre- sented a crisis in Amevican history, which calls more londly than that which has now arrived for the exercise fully and manfully. of that freedom of opinion, without regerd to parties, or the dictation of selfish individuals or cliques. This is not a matter that can be taken up like one of the many topics which make up the materials of political warfare, which are presenting themselves every day, and are decided merely with reference to the snecess or defeat of political leaders, or the tricks of this orthat party. (Cheers) It is a question of such deep and vital interest that the most gigantic. minds of the age have heen fastened upon it for years. It is a question which involves not only the weal or wo of our country, but the fate and welfare of unborn generations All that we haveto do, then, is not to consider whether the pre- sent administration are abont to reap any advantage from the able and stateaman-like manner in which the treaty has been negotinted—not whether its ratification by the Senate will affect the success of Mr. Cluy or Mr. Ven Bu- ren—not whether the British lion will roar with rage or the Mexican eagle shriek in vengeance—but whether the measure itself is calculated to redound to the interest and honor of onr country (‘“bravo” and cheers)— by tending to perpetuate the Unionand enhance its prosperity an peace. Such being the great object, the patriotic object which the advocates of annexation have had in view; such being the multitude of interestsinvolved in this momentous question—a better appropriation could not have been made than that of this spat to discuss fully and manfally all the intrinsic merits of the question. From this honr the stones on which wetread, Dnd the marble w: f this prond, time-honored edifice which stands before ns, shall beer witness that the “lone star of Texas” no longer sighs in vain for admission amongst its flows of the republic (Loud cheers) Every breeze that ix wafted along shall he freighted with the joyous news that this lonely star arked fora place amongst the galaxy of freedom whose lich? shall pierce the darkness that broods over the far western fields of Texas. (Cheers) Let every green leaf and bndding plossom of these heauteous trees around us be to us the emblems of that prosperity which is about to dawn on the cause of equal rights and universal freedom (Lond and enthusiastic cheers) Let us remember, too that while we stand here we may well fancy that the im: mortal spirits of the greni fathers of our liberties are hovering about us, warning us of the volcanic dangers which lie in our path, and of the ample means we con command to avert them, if we but act as wise mem who know that the key-stone of liberty is eternal vigilance— (Lond cheers) Mr T then went on to present the argu ment in favor of the annexation This he effected in a brief, forcible, and eloquent manner He showed that hoth Clay and Van Buren had heen favorable. when in oftice, to the measure, and drew the natural inference that their present position in reqa:d to it was the result of cir- cumstances in which they were at present placed. He then went on to ask, whathas thisMexico done to exciteso much mawkish sympathy from American freemen? What prot tion has she given to Americun merchants in her bord It isa fact, told us by intelligent American travellers, that, when in Mexico, they felt it was a kind of reproach in the eyes and bg of the Mexicans to he American citize io much eo that American residents were often driven to claim the provection of the British government to wecure them against outrage and plunder. Well, we claim Texas. There is nothing in Mr. Clay’s letter to show why this treaty should not be ratified 7 His great obiert seems to be from an inordinate love of British gold, and British aristocracy—no war with Great Britain (Cheers.) Asto Martin Van Buren’s view on the treaty, he, too, seems duiy impressed with considerations in ite favor. and would, we doubt not, assist to effect it, but for one reason—that it was brought before the country by John Tyler. (Loud cheers.) But Mr. Van Buren, who knows a thing or two—(Langhter )—if you but elect him President, every thing will” ho ret entisfactorily — (Laughter.)—But nnlesa yon deposit your favors inthe hallot box, he will see you hanged before he lets you know his opinians on Texas. (Lond laughter and cheers.) They both acknowledge the justice of the measure and” only wait for office to’ effectuate it. But we say that it is essential to our political and social welfare, and that it must bedone at once. (Cheers) If that be donejthen, as it will,be, to whom, [ask you, is the yifmerit due?

(Gries of “ yes,” “yes.”) Yes, the contest for great principles which we carry on will be trinmpeet forever, and the jackall cry of federalism be forever burie« mm silence. (Immense cheering ) Such, then, being his peel les, let me hear three hearty and continuous shouts jor John ‘Tyler. (‘This was answered by three of the most sturdy and terrific peals of cheering that the throats of men could produce ) The calls at this moment were loud and long for “Church,” “Judge Church,” who rose and said, that as the heurwas late, he would make bt few remarks. He allud- edto the outery that was rai ut stealing ‘the treaty from the Senate and publishing it. He could not under- stand the word steal in that connection. He was one of those who looked upon the people as the masters, on those in authority as their servants, and on all subjects affecting the interests of their constituents, bound to consult the people, their masters.

(Cheers) Judge Church conti- nued to address the meeting at considerable length, but “the shade of evening closing o’er us,” we were unable to take notes. He spoke of Clay and Van Buren as nothing in peint of authority to Jackson and Col. Richard Jehn- son; the two latter he declared to be the two first men ot the day, and ended amidst enthusiastic cheering. Dreaprut Accipenr on THE BaLtimork AND PuitapeLrnia Raitroap.—We present below the proceedings of a meeting of passengers, on board the train of cars that left Baltimore on Saturday evening, in relation to an unfortunate accident caused by a collision between the trains from each city, by which means two persons were killed and several wounded. It will be seen that the railroad company are severely censured for gross neglect of duty. Atameeting of the passengers in the train of cars from Baltimore to Philadelphia, on the tripof Saturday evening, 4, 1844, on motion of Gov, Paine, of Ver- mont, the Hon Davin Weneren was appointed Presi- dent—the following gentlemen were appointed Vice Presidents, viz ; Gov. Paine, of Vermont; Justin Butter. field, of Illinois; Ira Perley, of New Hampshire; N. 8, Howe, of Michigan; Paul S.’Proston, of Pennsylvania; 8. | J. Wade, of Ohio; Andrew M. Barber, of New York; George W Coliamer, of Vermont; John T. Pitman, of Khode Island; If. R. Latimer, of Georgia; J. N. M. Brew- er, of Maine; Gen. John C. Johnson, of New York, and | Josiah Higginson, of Tennessee; David Graham, of New York, and Martin Durand, U 8.N., of Louisiana, were inted Secretaries. he tollowing statement of facts mecting and adopted, viz :— ‘A collision pecurredl on Saturday evening, the 4th inst. four miles to the westward of Havre de Grace, between the train of railroad cars going from Baltimore on to Phi- ladelphia, and that proceeding from Philadelphia to Balti- more, by which two lives were lost, two persons seriously and itis supposed mortally wounded, and e number of passengers very severely fajured. ‘The trains were the regular ones, the one leaving Philadelphia at 4 P.M. and the other leaving Baltimore at7 P.M On enquiry into the tacta from persona connected with the trains, it has becn ascertained that the Baltimore train was dirdoted to proceed to Havre de Grace to meet the other, while no corresponding order was given to the Philadelphia train to change the place of meeting from what it was the day before, namely, Perryman’s, about four miles we place of theaccident. The accident would aj the result of this neglect on the part of the ° the line. It appears also that no lights were placed in front of cither of the trains, and that the baggage cars were placed in the rear of each train, which latter fact exposed the passenger cars to the full’ force of the colli- sion. The accident happened ten or fifteen minutes before the rising of the moon. The reason given by the conductor for having no lamps to the respective trains, is that no | lamps were provided by the company for that purpose The Baltimore train contained about one hundred and ive passengers, and the other train about thirty. pearance of the wreck of the locomotives and of the first of the Philadelphia care which was torn from the wheels and raised so as to stand at an angle of thirty degrees upon the lecomotive are truly appalling, and hut for the interposition of a merciful Providence, the injury and loss of life must have been very great. In view of this calamity, and the causes which led to it, the meeting adopted the following resolutions :— Reselved, That the coliision referred to in the preced- ing statement, waa, in the judgment of this meeting, the result of gross and highly culpable negligence on the part of the directors of the line in not causing their orders as | to the place of meeting ef the cars to be distinctly made | known to their conductors, and that the emission to pro- vide lights upon the respective trains, and the placing the baggage cars in the rear instead of in front of the passen- ger cars, was highly dangerous to human life, and de serves, in the opinion of the meeting, the censure of the ublic. P'Resolved, ‘That in cases like the present, where the lives of persons are secrificed and the safety of the public | endangered, the séverest rigor of the law as well by criminal prosecution of the guilty parties as by an exem- plary civil redress a -ainst the Company, should be put in requisition, as the only means human life can be secured, und criminal culpability prevented. Resolved, ‘That if any of the persons injured are not in circumstances to enable them to prosecute for theinjury, | the members of this meeting will hold themselves respon- | sible to render them any reasonable assistance in the fur- | therance of the object. Resolved, That the proceedings of this’ meeting be signed by the officers of the meeting, and published DANIEL WEBSTER, President. apy vas laid before the by which the protection of the recurrence of similar Hantem Ramroap.—Many complaints are made that a sufficient number of cars are not put on this road on Sundays, to accommodate the crowds | who go out to Nowlan’s at Yorkville, Harlem, and | other places on that line. There is also a want of | regularity about the starting of the trains, persons being obliged to wait at the intermediate stations | for sometimes more than an hour. These very | proper grounds of complaint should be removed in future. At each station, there should certainly be an additional agent to preserve some degree of | order, and facilitate passengé¥s in getting out and into the cars. As at present managed, it is matter | of surprise that many accidents do not occur on | this roadevery Sunday. | New City Arsenat.—The bill before the Legis- lature of this State for the construction of a new | State Arsenal in this city, has at length become a | law, through the energies of Commissary General | Storms, and nothing now remains to prevent the | immediate commencement of this necessary work | fro exc@pt the action of Congress to appropriate | moneys for the purchase of the land belonging to | this State at the Narrows, on Staten Island, which | the government has been desirous to possess in order to construct a suitable tort and battery for | the defence of that inlet to our harbor. The loca: tion of the arsenal is to be selected by the Com- | missary General and the Commissioners of the Land Office; and the work is to, be pertormed by contract, subject to their decision. The marble for its construction will be supplied from the Sing Sing State Prison, at the rate sold to other pur- chasers, and the expense of building is not to ex- ceed the,amount of money received by the State for the sale of the Jand at Staten Island. It 1s to be presumed that the present location on Centre street will be retained.
