Itis an in- fluence which has already encroached almost to the last ditch upon the dominion of the party or- gans, which sets at naught the most cunningly de- vised echemes of mere politicians, which creates | and controls legislation, and which no administra- tion can successfully resist. That influence is the independent daily press inthe large cities of the Union, with its immense circulation and its per- fect freedom from all party associations or control. This is the only organ on which any ad- ministration can safely repose its hopes of sup- port in its efforts to carry on the government with fidelity to the public. So long as the national affairs are managed with wisdom, patriotism and energy, the independent press will be found the willing and potential auxiliary of the general go- vernment; and to the opinions, counsel and ad- monitions of that untrammelled representative of the intelligence and patriotism of the nation, every administration should carefully look for the means of sustaining itself, rather than foolishly seek to maintain its position by the aid of a hired organ, altogether inoperative on the masses of the people, and which can never be regarded in any other light than as the mere mouth-piece of a political faction. The great source of the power possessed by the independent press, and particularly the metropoli- tan independent press, is its regular and systematic diffusion of intelligence of all kinds altoge ther re- gardless of the effects on particular interests or par- ticular parties. It thus wields a power commensu- rate with that of truth itself. No cligue—no party —no administration can fully accomplish its selfish designs to the disadvantage of the general interests of the people,when its purposes, movements and in- trigues are every day laid before the public eye. The ability to do this constitutes the great distinction between the party organs and the independent press. The great object of the party newspapers is to con- ceal as much as possible,—that of the independent newspapers is to tell every thing. Thus, day after day, the readers of the Herald are put in possession of political intelligence which the organs of fac- tion may not have obtained, and dare not reveal if shey had. Hence, however, the popularity—the uecess—and the power of the independent press. We mean to enlarge and extend to the fullest ossible degree the usefulness and value of the in- dependent newspaper press in this communication of political intelligence. Heretofore the labors of reporters at Washington has been confined to the recording of the proceedings in Congress, and the squabbles, misfortunes and successes of office- beggars. The action of the Executive in carrying out the laws passed by Congress has not been so carefully, minutely and regularly noted as it ought to have been. The daily business of the various departments has been overlooked, and it has only been by the casual development of some particularly important fact that the people have known what was actually the course of the Gov- ernment. Now we mean to commence a system. atic daily report of the actual doings of the Gov- ernment in all its departments. In this way the attention of the people will be directed trom the paltry and unprofitable equabbles of intriguing politicians, to the action and practical working of the Government itself. Its good deeds, and its errors will be thus alike fairly exhibited, and the intelligence and patriotism of the re- public will be able to pronounce a just judg- ment on the claims of the administration. We shall in this way do the state some service, and do for Mr. Polk, if he adheres to his pledges, and conducts the government with becoming ener- ay, wisdom, and patriotism, that which Ritchie & Co., with all their facetiousness and philoso. phy could never be able to accomplish. Nous ver- rons. Heautu or tue Crry.—The bills of mortality for the last few weeks have been so large as to have attracted a very great deal of public attention.— There cannot be a doubt that a vast amount of disease and death might be prevented by the adop- tion and enforcement of proper sanitary regu- lations. The location of this city 1s one of the mest salubrious in the world, and the cli- mate is remarkably good. With so many na- tural advantages, and with such a means of cleansing the city as the Croton water, New York ought to be the healthiest, cleanest and moat comfortable city in all Alleghania. But in consequence of the gross and criminal neglect of the municipal authorities, this metropolis has be- come a bye-word on account of its filthiness.— Poisonous effluvia are constantly arising from the garbage and offal in the streets—the dwellings of the poorer classes are di lated, over-crowded with inhabitants, not ventilated, and abominably filthy—slaughter-houses and other nuisances are scattered over the most densely populated parts of the city—and the Croton water, instead of dispen- sing health and purity throughout every street and alley is shut up, and in many localities escapes trom the pipes, and sinking into the earth, sends up noxious miasmata,{carrying disease and death into many a dwelling. One of the very first matters to which the attention of the new Corporation ought to be directed is the sanitary condition of the city, and the adoption of proper regulations for the pre- servation ofthe public health. Tur Covater ann THE “Youne Wuias.”—The Courier is now trying hard to eat up its abuse of Mr. Selden, and publishes long rigmarole articles about the necessity of conciliation and unity. It wontdo. The influence of the Wall street press is confined to a few stock-jobbing cliques, and cannot control the young whig movement so auspiciously commenced by Mr. Selden. We will, however, have some very amusing and interesting develop- mentsin the progress of the present contest, be- tween the two sections. We are watching the quarrel, and will soon be enabled to give the peo- ple some curious reports. Davip Haz 1n Trovsix.—Our pious contempo- rary, the Rev. David Hale, has, it appears, got into serious trouble with some ofhis female tenants.— He published the other day a savage article, calling fora repeal of the law making mal-contracts with a landlord binding, and referring to the particular case of a lady, whom he abuses in a manner very Christian. We very much fear that Satan has desired to have David that he may sift him as wheat. David fared badly enough in the hands of the Universalists, but we rather think he is now in the way of suffering more. Terriste Fine at Prrrssurcn.—We regret to give, in our columns to-day, the particulars of a most devastating conflagration in Pittsburg—the Tron City of Alleghania—by which $10,000,000 of. property is destroyed, and perchance many lives lost. Pittsburgh was one of the finest and most flourishingjcities in the Union. The loss by this fire will fall heaviiy upon Phila- delphia—more so than upon this city. Some of the property destroyed was probably insured here, and our merchants will seriously feel the calamity in the ruin brought upon those in Pitteburg. It is supposed that a great deal of the property de- stroyed belonged to Miss Croghan—the young girl that was abducted by Capt. Schenly from a board- ing school at New Brighton, a year or two ago. ‘Triat or Kigim ron Murper.—The trial of thie man for the inhuman murder of the poor woman, in the suburbs of this city, by stabbing her, and firing her dwelling, in December last, will take > Tadao Willard wi place in the May term of the Court of Oyer and this Court until Tudge ‘Edmonds retaras fom Ci. | Tetminer.

The fire o ated a frame building over an ice house, belonging to Wm Diehl, near the corner of Second and Ferry streets. The wind was blowing atiffly fom the northwest, though it frequently veered to other points, and owing to its variations, the fire extended up Wood st. farther than it otherwise could have done. It was first dis- covered about 12 o’clock,and was not materially checked till Sinjthe afternoon. Even while we write, at 9 o'clock, P. M., the engines are playing vigorously in Wood street. We can give no adequate idea of the distress which pervades our stricken community. The progress of the flames was so fearfully Sepiie that many§ persous had not time to remove their goods —others, again, hed get their pigperty into the street, when the flames seized it there, fore it could be removed to a place of safety. Others, still, would not belivve the devouring element could reach their dwellings, and did not think of removing un- til it was toe late to save their furniture. And we saw many people who escaped with nothing but the apparel they had upon their persons. At dark you might see, in every direction, families sitting without shelter, guard- ing such portions ef their household furniture as they w ble to save from the flames, and not knowing wherethey would lay their heads, or procure a morsel of food. Of course the kindness of their more fortunste fellow-citizens did much to alleviate their sufferings,and we believe all were provided for ae well es the melan- choly nature of affairs would allow. The councils met in the afternoon, and attempted to devise some means to stay the conflagration. It was pro and homeless, and their goods fill the streets. To add to the distress, the Gas Works were di ed, and our city by be involved in darkness as soon a* the lurid flames ie away. Millions of dollars will not repair the loss experienced. For extent of and wide-spread desolation, no fire in this country ever equalled it. T'o.morrow we shall be able to give more particulars, Warox or THe Swartow.—The Albany papers of Saturday contain further particulars of the dreadful disaster to the Swallow.

The Swallow lies with her head pointing in shore, making an angls with the direction of the channel of some 25 de- grees. If the rock had not been there, the Swallow, from the course she was taking, must have run up high and dry on the Athens shore. It has been said that the Swal- low wasnot in the usualchannel. Thisisanerror. The Atheus, or west channel, is much the most direct, the widest and the deepest, and is always preferred by steam- boats which do not lend at Hudson. It has also been sta- ted that the second pilot was at the wheel when the boat strack. This is equally x mistake. We had it yesterday from Mr. Burnett’s own lips, that he took the wheel about six miles above Hudson, and was at his post when the dis- aster occurred. He can give no other account or ex; nation of it, than the night wasso dark as to decelvé esto thelay ofthe land. He states, however, thst he could see thelights on shore. A wide difference of opin- on exists as to the rate at which the Swallow was goin, when she struck the .

Hoffman, of this city, and commenced running in 1886. ever, are con- fora mile or Tag Normat Scuoon at ALBANY.—A good deal of disapprobation is expressed by the enlightened friends of education, with reference to the unex- pected curtailment of the appropriation for the Normal School at Albany, by which the utility of that institution will be greatly impaired, and ite success retarded. It not rarely happens, however, that objects of State eadowment, which cannot in- terest mere partizan influences, thus suffer, whilst hundreds of thousands of dollars are equandered in the most corrupt and profligate manner. Often, too, party politicians take eecasion in such cases, to make a great display of their very sincere desire to economize in the public expenditures, We, hope, however, that the friene's cf the Nor- mal School, will persevere in their ¢ffurts to sue » | tain and extend the agency of this invaluable in- stitution. The people of this State cheerfully con- tribute a heavy tax for the purpose of supporting the public schools, and the benefits of that expendi- ture would be incalculably increased, were the science of teaching properly cultivated. Good teachers can be made only by the instrumentality of Normal Schools; and we trust, therefore, that the experiment commenced at Albany, will not be permitted to fail, Fungrat Sermon on THe Late Dr. Mitnor.—A discourse was delivered in St. George’s Church, yesterday forenoon, by Dr. Stone, on the death of the late Rev. Dr. Milnor. The church was so very full that fully one-third of the congregation had to stand during the whole service, and a grea’ deal of feeling was exhibited as the preacher dwelt on the exemplary life, the piety, and use fulness of the deceased pastor ; nor was the shed- ding of tears confined to the female partof the au dience, for several hard featured aud stern looking men joined in the weeping right heartily. Owing to the crowded state of! the church, our reporter could not get a place within hearing of the preach- er, although he made several attempts ; he even went so farasto ask the Sexton, whose prim and dignified look made it a forlorn hope, but he wa: tnobdarate—the press of the crowd precluded any attentionto the public prees, and his habits of disposing of the dead beirg cf such an abscrbing nature, he could not find a moment to accommo date the living. The public have lost the pleasure fize, and is entirely consumed The Pi ated a of reading a good sermon, becauee the Sexton ‘of 8uj to be fire proof, exten: from Third Fount St. George’s happened to be in a disobliging mood. streets, is in flames.

Gorpon.—The trial o this man for being concerned in the murder of ‘Amasa’ Sprague, in Providence, is nearly closed, and we may expect a verdict on Wednesday next. All the evidence is in—see outside—and it has created a good deal ,of {interest in this commu nity. 4 It hes produced considerable excitement throughout Rhode Island, fromthe high character and standing which the murdered man enjoyed, and from the fae: that John Gordon has already been convicted and executed, on very slender evi- dence, for this same murder. os OR eel Tonight at this hota, will gather together « brilliant assernblage of intellect, beauty, and fashion. Antigone, with the Lady of Lyoné on the same night, is, indeed, an attractive bill, and will afford the beneficrare an opportunity of displays ing the versatility of his power in the antipodean characters. Dinneford made a great move when he secured his services as stage manager. Miss Clarendon also increases in favor, and report speaks of her Pauline—which character she will sustain this evening in addition to Antigone—as a very clever performance. Nickinson, late of the Olympic, is engeged by Dinneford, an excellent ac- tor; he plays Col. Damas this evening, and we ex: Pect a very finished representation of that charac- ter. Thisis the lest night but one of its perform- ance, and we aseure those who allow this opportu- nity to pass without seeing Antigone, that they have missed an intellectual treat seldom offered to the citizens of this or any othercity. Travian Oprra.—De Begnis is full of his project forthe establishment of Italian Opera in this city.
