NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Tuesday, April 15, 1845, ‘The Steam Ship Due. The Great Western is now in her seventeenth day. Westerly winds have probabiy kept her back. The Caledonia is in her eleventh day. She will be due at Boston next Friday. The Ultralsm of the Age. The recent trial of Polly Bodine ia this city, which has attracted in such an intense degree the attention of the community, has been attended by manifestations of popular ¢eeling and sentiment, which indieatg, in a very remarkable and note- worthy manner, that influences are at work tending to produce a very unhealthy state of public opinion, in matters most intimately connected with the well- being of society. Throughout the whole prgceed- ings, the cause of justice, the interests of the com- munity, and the rights of the prisoner herself, have been seriously affected and endangered by caus! which ougitnot to be regarded without alarm. lo the great difficulty of obtaining jurors—in the speeches of counsel—in the charge of the Judge— in the long retirement of the jury—in the conduct of a certain portion of the press—and in the discus- sions amougst the people—there were discovered very sigtificant indications that there is something operating yery geuerally, whick bas a tendency u& unsetle the very fouadations of our system of cru! nal law. When the very tribunal of justice itsel, isinvaded by a spirit of revolution aud rebellion against the established laws of the State, it is swre- ly ume tor all who desire the maintenance of the peace, good order, and safety of society to look ip, to the matter with the calmest and closest attention. There caunot be a doubt that 4 very mischevious influence has been created by the ultraism of the opponents of capital punishment. They have not gone to work in the right spirit. Their efforts to effect a change im the law, have been characteri- zed by a degree of violence, intemperance, and indescretign, which now begins to generate in many quarters a spirit of undisguised hostility to the righteous administration of justice. Let us not be misunderstood. We are not by any means to be regarded as opposed to the amelioration of our criminal code, whenever reason and experience point out the propriety of a change. But crimi- nals are to be tried and punished not by laws shaped to please the mawkish sentimentalism of an affect- ed and spurious philanthropy. Jurors ought to recol- lect that they are bound to disregard all considera- tions as to the.consequences of their verdicts, and when they do thus faithfully discharge the solemn obligations imposed upon them by their oath, they are surely entitled to the approbation of all intelli- gent and right-thinking men. But we now often find juries abused and derided by the advocates of the abolition of capital pun- ishment—loaded with epithets of rebuke and infamy—and held up to the community as guilty of unlawfully condemning their fellow beings to death. Such has been the manner in which the jury in the awful case to which we have already alluded, been treated by the organ of the aboli- tionists in this city—the Morning News. This is the ultraism on this most important subject against which we desire to point the disapprobation of all men of sound*sense and intelligence. So long as the advocates of the abolition of the punish- ment of death appeal to the reason of the commu- nity—so long as they conduct the controversy in a calm, temperate, and philosophic spirit, we fiad no fault with them. But when they thus assail juries for a faithful discharge of their solemn duty, and denounce the ministers of justice for their instru- mentality in carrying out the laws—when they ele- vate the murderer into a hero, and regard his victim as unworthy of a thought, it is surely time to enter @ protest against the folly and fanaticism which thus strike at the very foundations of civilized society. All this wild, violent, and intemperate outcry against the propriety of capital punishment, and at- tempted interference with the prescribed course of justice, is, however, only in keeping with the ul- traism of the age, which seeks to unsettle all th established rules, usages, and opinions of society We see the same reckless spirit of innovation or pseudo-reform, in the movements of the Fourierites» the Socialists, the National Reformers, and all the other new systems of society and religion which are appealing to the popular mind. Not to reform, but to overturn—not to restrain, but to let loose the passions—not to control, but to let run riot the ap petites, is the aim of these fanatics. There are amongst them those who may have some faint glimmerings of the truth, but it is away amonges' the clouds, and so they go on blindly constructing and reconstructing theories for the reorganization of society, ard the complete regeneration’ of hu- man nature, the only effect of which is to take cap. tive the weak, and lead, many into all sorts of ex’ travagance of error. Even in the great moral movements of the time, ‘We see the same spirit of ultraism at work. Thus in the progress of the temperance reformation, vio lence and fanaticism have rushed in, and in al! directions now impede most seriously the course of that blessed work. Not satisfied with the wise and resistless course adopted by the first movers it: that sublime effurt, many of the professed friends oi the temperance cause are now employing ultra and unjustifiable means of attaining its ends. Instead of addreewing themselves.to the reason and con sciences of men—instead of allowing the influence of example to operate and triumph—they must needs seek to force others to think and act with them.— Instead of addressing the community inthe language of Christian charity and forbearance, we now find many of the temperance orators pouring forth tor- rents of vituperation and abuse against all who de not belong to “the society.” The Legislature too, is called upon to enact laws prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors, and probably this foolish end ultra spirit may next demand that the possession of a temperance certificate must be made an indispensible qualification for citi- zenship. But all this is greatly to be deplor- ed. None regret it more than do the best friends of the ‘‘ temperance reformation ”’—as that great moral movemert, whose blessed fruits are every where apparent throughout our Jand, has not inappropriately been termed. ~ Thie ultraism of the age is the great enemy of all reforms. The intelligent and the genuine reformer proceeds slowly, cautiously, temperate. ly. Prejudices are not best overcome by violence The popular mind is not to be taken by storm.— Many reforms may be clearly discerned as neces- sary, and the means of their attainment be fully perceived by those who are ia advance of their fel- lows. But it is to be recollected that the enlighten- ing and convincing of the great mass of mankind is the work of time. The man who labors patiently and prudently for the advancement of his race, by the exposure of errors and the spread of the truth on all subjects connected with philosophy, re- ligion, civilization and laws, is the true reformer. But he who goes wildly, rashly and intemperately to work, is like the fool in the Proverbs,who casts around him arrows, firebrands and death, and says “ am not I in sport?” Reticiovs Movament.—A meeting preparatory to the formation of a British free church, for the more immediate use of British residents, was con- vened at the house of H. B. M. eonsul, A. Barclay, Exq., yesterday evening. We have not learned the result, but we are informed that the design is to make use of the liturgy of the Church of Eng. land, as used in the Eaglish version of the Book of Common Prayer ; retaining the prayers for the Queen, royal family, gunpowder plot, restoration ot Charles, and other forms, which are not essen. tially republican. Sream Sup Great Weerenn.—Nearly one hur- deed and twenty passengers are already “ booked” to go in the Great Western on the 24ih inst Tus Lats Tsxnistx Fire in Prrresurcu—Or- GaNizaTION o¥ Fire Companres.—Throughout this whole community, the late awful calamity which has befallen the city of Pittsburgh, has excited the deepest sympathy. New York has had its bitter experience of a similar misfortune, and the feeling of commiseration for the “‘iron city,” in its present most melancholy condition, is here intense and uni versal. We trust that some active measures will be at once adopted tor giving a practical expression to this teeling of cympathy, and that ‘all that bene- volence and charity can do wiil be done in order to alleviate the distress into which very many of the eufferers in Pitteburgh mugt have been preci- pitated. Happily the ravages of this great fire were confined in a great measure to those classes who are comparatively able to bear the loss, but many of the poor have also suffered, and multi- tudes will be thrown out of employmentfor a cou siderable time to come. There is another aspeet in which it is jroper to regard this calatnity. 1: hasadmonished the corpo- rate authorities of all the cities and towns in the interior, to eff-ct a complete organization of the fire departmentsintheirseveral jurisdictions There cannnot be any doubt that had tie fire companies of Piteburgh been thoroughly and efficiently o1 gauzed, the ravages cf the fice might have been ereatly restricied, [a this city we are very glad t be able to say that the fire department hasat length been brought to a slate cf very efficient organiaa- tion, The ebuses ef the system ies been veiy mucb abated, aud toe aetivity, the zeal, prompti tude and means cf te fire companies canuot be spoken «f in too high commendation, We had the other day a strikiog illustration of the tru hof these remarks. Within some minutesutter the alarm of fire in Elizabeth street, tour hose companies aud three engines were on the epot, and in a few minutes mere an adequate force were on the ground. This fire originated in a building eur rounded by cabinet-makers’ shops, soap-boiler’s and leather-dressers’ establishments, and whole streets of frame buildings. A high wind too was blowing at the time, and had not our fire depart- ment been so well organized, the destruction of pro- perty must have been immense. Let this awful lesson, then, not be lost upon the municipal authorities of all cities and towns, which do not possess a fully organized and efficient fire department. Jurrerson’s Birth Day —Yesterday was the ai nivereary of the birth of Themas Jefferson, in honor of which, the national flag was unfurled from the City Hall, Tammany Hall, and other public places, and a military dieplay of several fine companies took place on the Washington parade ground. In the evening a large procession of citi- zens, accompanied with music, paraded the streets ; Tammany Hall was brilliantly illuminated, and various works of honor to the day were exhibited all over the city. Law Courts.—The Court of Chancery sat on yes- terday, when it was expected the Vice Chancellor would pronounce the decision of the Court, in the long pending case of Cruger vs. Douglas et. al. and also in the case of Lewis vs. Anthon. The Court, however, delivered no opinion. There is considerable interest manifested among the gentle- men of the Bar, on the subject of these important decisions. Potty Boping.—This unfortunate woman had a clergyman in attendance upon her during yester- day forenoon. Every effort will be made to extort a confession from her. Cxouns or Dust anp ConsumPrion.—It appears by the bills of mortality that this insidious disease is on the increase in this city. Those who are af- flicted had better go this evening to the lecture of Dr. Rose. at the Society Library, and learn that they can be cured. We need some one like Dr. Rose to take care of our lungs, while the city con- tinues enveloped in the dust cloud,which has been so denze for several weeks as actually to hide the sun fromourview, Theatricals. Tue Parx.—Mr. Anderson commenced his en- gagement last night, as “‘Coriolanus.” The house was crowded in every part. The Forrest clique kept perfectly quiet, and Mr. Anderson, on his first appearance, was greeted with three rounds of hearty applause from the pit and gallery, whilst from the boxes the demonstration of the same cordial feel- ing was equally enthusiastic. The performance throughout was received with great approbation, and Anderson fully sustained his reputation. His conception of the character of the impetuous Ro- man was vigorous and just, and carried out with characteristic energy and effect. In the scene with “ Aufidius,” (Dyott,) in the last act, he brought down thunders of applause. The memorable pas- e— “ Boy! False hound! If you had writ your anneis true, ‘tis there ‘That like en eagle in a dovecote. I Fluttered your Yolces in Corioli: Alone I did it-Boy !— was given with a truthfulness and spirit worthy of the highest commendation. Miss Clara Ellis sus- tained the part of ““Volumnia” with great judgment and spirit. Mr. Dyott, a very pains-taking actor, played ‘‘ Aufidius” in a creditable manner. On the fall ot the curtain,Mr. Anderson was loudly calied for, and on presenting himself to the house, in obedience to its call, he was most enthusiastl cally greeted. He then said— Lepixs ano Gentiemen :—Although my heart has been picrcei by miny swoi iuding ‘o his ceath in the tragedy)—yet it is still sensible of your kin‘iness: I reai- iy cannot express the feeling of joy which your welcom- —the welcome of my first kind patrons—has ewakcuel in my bosom. (Cheers ) have again reiurned to you alter an absence of some months, bat your kindness followed meevery where. In my Southern tour [ have met with reat kindness, and I trust it will not be tco egotistical for me to say, that your verdict has been stamped with approbation wherever I went. (Cheers.) I have returr- edto New York with substantial proofs of the value of that verdict of yours, which went before me. For your generous kindness—your cordial patronage, | cannot ex- ress my gratitude. Bat it is her ind when | forget to grateful te you, this heart must indeed be as cold as death can make it. Mr. Anderson then retired amid tremendous ap- plause. To-pight he plays ‘Claude Melnotte” in the Lady of Lyone—one of his very best character.— The exeitement to see him, is, if possible, greater than during his last engagement. Patmo’s,—Here, also, there was an overflowing house. The performances were for the benefit of Mr. Geo. Vandenhoff, anda splendid benefit 1t was. It was the largest house ever seen at Palmo’s, and the dress circle was as brilliant as in the brief day of the Opera. ‘‘Antigone” was received with the most enthusiastic approbation. Miss Clarendon, although suffering from a cold, which made her somewhat hoarse, sustained her part with such ability, as to elicit throughout very warm applause. In the scene where she 1a condemned, the unntter- able anguish of the heroic woman was go vividly portrayed that many of the audience were moved . Mr. Vandenhoff’s performance was ntly artistical and classi When the cur- tain fell he was called for in the most enthusiastic manner, and on pearance, the plaudits were deafening.

THE TERRIBLE CALAMITY AT PITTSBURG, PA. A. Where theffire broke out; B. Third Presbyterian Gavrch; C. 3 D. Monongahela House; E. Gas Works ou the Py BURNT DISTRIOT. Pot «(li vd FP pee Purther Particulars of the Fire in Pitts- burg. The terrible calamity at Pittsburg, coming so closely upon that to the Swallow, has thrown a sadness over the whole community. It appears by the particulars by yesterday’s mails, that the con- flagration was more wide-spread and devastating than we were first led to believe. An idea of this great fire may be obtained from the above map. We are indebted to the kindness oi James S. Crofis, E:q , a distinguished member of the Pittsburg bar, now in this city, for tracing the track of the fire and pointing out the localities tous. It is perceived that the destruction of pro- perty in Pittsburg is to that city what the destruc- tion of the whole of South, Front, Water, Pearl, and all their cross streets, would be to New York We annex the latest particulars: According to the above map, twenty-one squares were destroyed, viz : Ferry street, from 8d to 24 ond Market streets, 1 square. : “Qi to Front street, pce Water to Front and Wood street, b: ie Front to 24 and Wood street, by larket from 24 ‘Wood.

[From Pittsburg A‘ivertiser, April 11] ‘We have traversed the burnt district this morning throughout its entire extent; the calamity is as wide- spread and as awfulascan be conceived. The district burnt is about as wehave described above. The whole of South Ward, one of the most populous in the eity, is destroyed, with the exception of two or three houses,one of them by a singular gay aframe! The largest part of‘Pipetown is sacred. afew frame buildings heving escaped.

The loss is variously estimated at from five to ten millions! By tomorrow we li be able to give more defiaite intelligence, but it take some days to give all the particulars. The only lost, that we have heard of, was @ poor woman in ‘Third street. (From Pittsburg Letter, April 10.) Our city has just been visited with one of the: ms! disastrous fires it hes ever been iu the memory of man to record It commenced at about half past 11 o'clock thir morning—tbe wind blowing a perfect gale from the west : on Ferry street at this point, the fire first commenced, and in @ few minutisthe whole rquars adjoining wus in fines, stretching over to Wood's « otton Frctory, Soen consumed the whole square, wilh the ¢xcepiion o Third Church and Johustou & Steckton’s Book Bin along side.

A large assembly took place in the Tabernacle last night, on the occasion of the anaual meeting of this Association. The detvites were opened with prayer by Rev, Mr, Lewis. The Treasurer gave his statement of the state of the funds of the Society. The receipts up to the 31st of March amounted to 12,016 dollars, and the expenditure nearly the same; the latter consisted nearly altogether of one item paid over to the Board of Foreign Missions. In the absence of the Secretary, the Rev. Mr. Reap,a statement was made by the Rev. Mr. Aum: STRONG, ag @ substitute for a feport. He could not announce a very striking history of the Missiona- ty cause during the past year, yet there were some indications of i work, such ag an increased desire for intelligence f missions—the attendance at Missionary prayer neetinge—the more reapectful tone of the secular yess ld speaking of the cause; and although the receipts did not equal those of |: ear, they were not behind the average of the last fives whilst ‘some single instsaces ef Churches, there was in increase of from fitty to five hundred dollar con- «ribations in the current year. Rev. Mr. Spaulding, of the Foreign Mission, Rev. Mr. Coles, and Theodore Frelinghuysen, spoke, all arguiog that the harvest of the Lor. was warly ripe, and that the labor was about te go on most prosperously. Sporting Intelligence.

On going up the back stretch, Daniel opened the gap between him and his oppo- nent. Ten to four was now offered on him, but with few or no takers. At the half there was an increase of a speed, Daniel leading some dozen lengths, going ata of 2:50.
