They are their frau- ald, which has a damnable circulation of nearly 40,000. This paper, it appears, is seldom seen by our venerable contemporary, except when it meets | him, as it does every one, on his occasional rambles about the country, and with whose statements he professes to be acquainted, only through the col. | umns of one of the other papers of the day. | Tt seems this New York Herald—this sagacious | al tate, which | journal, this extraordinary journal, this abridgement Boao tiiak staiting Texas with picon tution | of all that is excellent in journalism, that not only uaranteoing, eternal slavery. wil pour foe a pene | eclipses all the papers, but is the oracle of the bro- Hale ve made up for the Supreme Court, to test there | Kers and shavers of Wali street, sets nations by the the ralalty of sh ok which srinthe Ceuta Sectares 8 ears, and levies at will black mail on whole com- y the Constitution. cours ay i . - Thedow of rightful force ; and we may Buel presume | Munities and kingdoms, with as much force as went that the Located ore Wy Pepeouies, “4 ey aod yold, | forth the decrees of Julius Cwsar, Alexander, or Conspirators ! you have won vantage of us by 4 i treachery aud deceit! but do not cslumniate us by | Napoleon; itseems that this paper opposes any such saying we have lid down our arms--Come and take settlement, and threatens the President with itshigh them? : r displeasure, in case he does any such thing as eflect But let others do asthey eur banner hangs on the any treaty of the kind.

Let them riot in their foully-won vic- tien! Sach is the manner in which a measure of such vital importance to the prosperity of this Republic, and the spread and perpetuity of free government, is denounced and misrepresented by the little batch of hair-brained philosophers who manage the Tri- bune. It is thus evident, however, that the organiza- tion of « violent «nti-annexation clique in the whig party has commenced. This opposing influence will endeavor to prevent, or at least interpose every | possible obstacle to the final settlement of annexa- | tion in the Congress of the United States. The struggle will be directed against the recognition of those terms which had most weight with the Tex- sms in their acceptance of the resolutions passed by our national legislamre. An attempt will be made | to repudiate the assumption of the debt of Texas, | and to defeat those ulterior views of mutual advan- | tage and interest which have very naturally and | properly entered into the agreement between the United States and Texas. Thus we will have the abolitionists, and the rabid ultras, of whose wild and absurd theories of society and government the Tribune is the accredited and worthy exponent, all making a desperate ctfort against the consummation of annexation, and creating as much difficulty and confusion as they possibly ean. We do not, however, apprehend any serious im- pediment to the completion of this great and glorious measure from this source. The action of the fac- tion represented by the Tyrbune, may, indeed, tend somewhat to the disorganization of the whig party, but from the general and warm expres- sion in favor of the measure,which has beeri elicited by the recent intelligence from Texas, we have not my rootn left to doubt the complete success and per- feet consumination of this first great step in the pro- Pagandism of American institutions and American liberty on a seale broad and expansive, and com- mensurate with their magnitude and value. tions, in order to prevent the utter breaking up and utralization of the entire negotiations on the ques- tions of Oregon and war with England. We further learn from our venerable benetit-taking and debt-paying contemporary, that the Herald, which is going to involve this country in the horrors of war with England and all the world, is itself owned and conducted by foreigners, although the fact is, that probably nine-tenths of the individuals engaged in the Herald establishment are natives of Of course this gives it another large amount of influence, and frightens John Bull essen- tially, for of all things John dishkes to be licked by those who know him best. From the information derived from the Cowrier, it is now certain there will be no settlement of the Oregon question ; that Mr. Polk and Mr. Buchanan dare not divide the territory by a line running on the 49th parallel, because the New York Herald is op- posed to such a course ; consequently there will be war with England, as soon as flotillas are put in readiness and troops in marching order. It is also alleged that the motive of the Herald for thus in citing nations to arms, is nothing else than an ex- tension of circulatton—the sale of between thirty and forty thousand extras, which, counted at two cents apiece would amount to about eight hundred dol- lars. Now, in. order to preserve the peace of the world—to prevent a bloody torrent laving the base of the rocky mountains, what could be more be- nevolent, wise and humane than for the President of Yankeedom and the Queen of England, either jointly or separately to advance the sum of eight hundred dollars to the Herald, and allow the nego- ciation to proceed. Queen Victoria is said to be liberal ; she has here a fair opportunity to add to her fair fame in becoming highly humane and tender hearted. If she could only see the Cowrier and En- qurer, (which, alas! is exceedingly improbable,) Tue Maoxeric Teveckarn.—A writer in a con- temporwry joureal, speaking of the results which will be accomplished by the agency of the magnetic telegraph, says that it will roi the business of the Post Oflice Department. The truth is, the telegraph WN) supersede the present system of communicating intelligence by the mail. Government will be com- pelled to organize a new Post Office Department, or rather, 2 {Telegraph Department. This will be ab- solutely necessary in order to secure the people the fall advantages of this wondertul means of commu- nication. The writer then goes on to express the opinion that railroad and steamboat companies will ve mo»! materially injared by the operation of the telegraph. This is quite an erroneous conjecture. On the contrary, the companies will be most essen- tally benefitted. Travel will be greatly increased, not diminished. All the pulses of social life will be quickened. A greater activity than ever will preva! throughout society Certainly one of the most interesting, and not the least important effects of the telegraph, will be that produced by it on the newspaper press. All those papers which serve merely as vehicles of intelli- genee will be destroyed. The scissors and paste journalism of the country will be annihilated. But that species of journalism which embodies, instructs, diree’s and controls the public opinion of the time, will flourish in « tenfold degree. Thus, a paper like the Herald, which is always in advance of the movements of the great popular mind—which pre- wents original views of passing events—which is in fact a great political and social institution, will be veadered still more influential and popular, by the operation of the magnetic telegraph, which will tumulate and aid all the movements of the intellec- ‘wal machinery of the daily preee Movewenrs ix Wace Srerer.—Great complaints are made in many quarters about the depression of business in Wall street, and the terrible dullness of the season, All the leading men of finance are out of town, Some of them, too, are getting marricd. About days ago, one of the most noted men in Wail street took to himself a wife—a young, lovely, end scoompliched partner, We allude to Jacob Little, Eeq., who was on Thursday week last, uni- ted to the daughter of one of the most respectable citizens of Brooklyn ‘The ceremony took place at the beautifal town residence of Mr. Little in Union Square, ond was attended by « number of the fash- jonable friends of the parties. The bride was dressed in « style of the greatest elegance, and the | eptertainments provide description. After the ceremony, the happy co and their party started for Ningura Falls, and Upper and Lower Canada, returning over the Green Mountains of Vermont, by the way of Newbury- ort, Boston, Saratoga, Albany, and se to New York were of the most recherche Mr. Little t* one of the most remarkable speci- mens of American genius and enterprize extant About tifteen or twenty years ago, he was a modest quiet clerk, in the office of the celebrated Jacob | Barker Now he at the very head of the finan- | exists she would see her duty, and for the sake of human- ity propitiate the Herald, by sending over in the next steamer a box of sovereigns to the amount of $400, being her quota of the amount requisite to settle the Oregon question, and preserve the peace ofthe nations. Nativism IN Pur.apELeata anp Lonpon.—The recent Native Convention in Philadelphia, was rich in its developments of bigotry, narrownessjof intel- lect, and grovelling prejudice. It is not worth while to occupy our time and space in exposing the folly, and contracted views of the members, with respect to the naturalization laws. One rather curious sub- ject of assault, however, was brought up on this oc- casion. The government was denounced with great ferocity for employing the services of Perico, the sculptor, and paying him large sums of money for those admirable works which adorn the capital of the country. This strange outburst of ‘‘ Nativism” is not with- outa parallel, We are presented in London with a precisely similar manifestation of national prejudice, which has just been exhibited in the theatrical cir- cles there. American acters, Forrest, Miss Cush- man, Hackett, and others, have, as is well known, appeared of late years in London, and been very well received of the play-going people. But Hack- ett’s appearance at Covent Garden, on a recent occa- sion, in compliance with the express desire of the Queen, has been the signal for the outburst of “na- tive” feeling in London. Her Majesty, it appears, sat out the whole of the play, applauded Hackett heartily, and afterwards, at an evening soirée, ex- pressed to the lady of the American Minister, her most favorable opinion of thatactor. This was too much for the London players, and they have de- nounced Hackett in the most vehement style. Ma- dame Vestris has not stopped with abuse of Hack- ett, but does not hesitate to denounce Queen Vieto- ria herself for “having dared to applaud a d——d, infamous Yankee actor.” We believe we may saiely put this specimen of nativeism in London on a par with the Philadelphia exhibition, Nativeism is thus seen to be every where the same combinntion of prejudice, bigotry, selhshness, tumpudence, ignorance and folly, and it is certainly melancholy to find that on both sides of | the Atlantic there are men”who belong to the last century, and who, instead of going ferward to su- perior civilization, light and intelligence, are retro- grading to the darkness and bigotries of the past every day. Faeven Orera.—Nothing can be plainer than the | great success which the French Opera has met with | beyond the Italian, which went down despite of all | the efforts made to sustain it. The French company | have now been performing for some weeks, and are likely to go on for many more with a cheering pros- | peet before them. After all there is nothing diffi- cult to account for in this apparent partiality for French Opera; it is a good deal owing to the exem- , | plary conduct of the artists composing the] French troupe, and the union and concord which happily between them and the manager, that they crers of the age.

Meyerbeer’s, Opera will be performed ‘for the third time this evening, and like the pre- | ceeding nights, we are certain the Park will be , crowded by all the fashionable inhabitants and ‘ foreigners now remaining in the city. | Tee Casrue Gaxven.—This house wasnumer- i ously attended last evening. This evening Herr | Cline makes his last appearance but one, and the bill of fare is most attractive. There is the Dancing Seotehman, the Carnival of Venice,{in which Herr Cline introduces his wonderful performances; dane- ing by Miss Cohen; Auber’s Military Overture to “La Ville du Regiment;” together with Wood’s in- | genious Tableaux Mouvans of Philip Quarl, in which \Mesers.

The Baker family are giving Concerts in Sara- Five Orphean Family have been highly successful in Providence. ‘The Misses Macomber are giving Concerts in Pittsburgh. The talented dancers, Misses Ince, are enguged atthe Baltimore Museum. It is stated that a letter has been received in this city, from Mr. Edmund Keun, stating that in the month of August Mrs. Kean, Miss Ellen Tree that was, and him- self, intended to visit this country on a theatrical tour.— It ls expected that they will make their first appearance at the Park. Sport! Intelligence. Tue Great Tex Mice Foot Race over rue Bea- con Course, Hovoxen.—This aflair comes off to- day. The race 1s generally considered to be be- tween the, American Deer (Wm. Jackson) and John Gildersleeve. The former’s performance on Monday, has raised him much in public estimation ; but in‘that contest he had no Gildersleeve to contend against. It is true that Jackson may not be yet acclimated, und the present hot weather we know aflectshim. Both of them are backed to a consid- erable extent at evens, and they will, no doubt, give a good account of themselves. The two mile walk- ing match, being contested by the three first in the last walking match will be quite interesting, as it is thought to be an even thing between those at that distance. The Foot Hurdle Race will be an amu- sing one, as it is most likely there will be some tumbling before they can all get over theffifteen hur- dles or bars, which are tobe three feet three inches high. ‘On peeaay last, some four or five individuals were arrested and taken to Jersey prison for break- ing the fences around the track ; several others met with a just reward for their nefarious attempts of the like nature, in the shape of broken heads and bruises. One person, we heard, had one his arms broken by a blow from one of the constables stafis in resisting him. Extra persons will be employed to-day to a the course clear, and the proprietor is determined to enforce the law as far as possible. TrottinG anp Pacinc Matcues at Hartem Park Yxsrerpay.—There was a respectable and numer- ous attendance at thistrack yesterday. At the hour mentioned the horses were called ‘up, and every thing went offin first rate order. The first piece of sport was a pacing purse for $30—Mile heats best three in five, under the saddle. Col, Bertine enters ch. h. Frelinghuysen. W. Wells d b. & brehy P. Arnold bl. h. Black Joke. This was a well contested match throughout, par- ticularly the third and fourth heats; the Colonel’s tact completely won for him the former and he strove hard for the latter, but was not so successful. His horse was certainly not in a fit condition for thie contest; he was both thin and footsore. The foliow- ing is the result :— P, Arnold's Black Joke Reet Mr SRL ; SN ae Seen age ea ee } 229 2:81 320 Immediate! yarn! here was a match for $350, two mile heats, in harness. H.

An the first heat Newburgh looked very like the winner, but some how or other George Spicer managed to take it from him as he reached the score. The second heat was well contested and was taken by H. Jones in good style. For the third heat Hiram Woodrufi drove Stockton, but with no better success than Geo. Spicer. Indeed no other result was expected by those present, for they could not see the policy of putting some twelve or fifteen pounds additional weight upon a fatigued aie. tomake him win. The following is the re- sult 5— H. Jones’ Newburgh. . . Geo. Spicer’s Stockton Time.... Tue Poxice.—This force 1s now nearly organized completely, and has been partially on duty for several days, and yet we do not see that it has pro- duced any change in the public morals and manners as they are exhibited at places of resort and through- out the city generally. The reckless, the vicious and the lawless are as busy as ever, their plots un- dected and their dens unvisited. What is the use in a police if not to look after gambling houses—the nurseries of all sorts of crime and all such infamous concerns. There are probably thirty or forty of these situated within hail of the police office, which are fair game for the vigilance of the police. We advise them to try their weapons upon these frater- nities of villains. Doecrrr’s New York Crry Dmecrory ror 1845-’6.—This is certainly one of the best Directo- ries published, and as far as such works well can be, correct. It contains sixty-one thousand three hundred and thirty-three names, being 1,145 more than the Directory of the previous year. It contains a vast amount of other information, lists of public officers, buildings, ministers, institutions, &c., to- gether with an excellent Street Directory corrected upto May last. The work is well got up and does infinite credit in every respect to the enterprising publisher. Hint to Watcumen.—Those “ sleepy guardians of the night,” who neglect their duties, and allow highway robberies and actual murder to be perpetra- ted by the midnight assassin in our very midst,must profit by the very significant proceedings before the Court of Oyer and Terminer on yesterday. Let all delinquent Watch and Policemen be on the look out, as fortunately the law affords a remedy in all such cases as we refer to before the Court of Oyer and Terminer. Dr. Bostwick’s Suraic. blishment appears to succeed in a remarkable de- gree. Dr. Bostwick has, himself, quiie a genius for surgical operations, and he has secured the aid of Drs. Mott, Cheeseman, Bedford, and other eminent practitioners who operate and prescribe in his Insti- tute. The Doctor isa man of great energy in his profession, and is rapidly acquiring a great deal of dexterity and skill. Tue Bric Porto Rico.—It is said that the crew of the Porto Rico were taken off by a vessel and landed at Newport; that the first officer has been in Boston for several days, and that Capt. Knowlton proceeded immediately from Newport to this city. When they abandoned the brig she had three feet of water in the hold, and the pumps were choked. ACCIDENT at THE Beacon Course oN Moxpay.— We are glad to hear that the rider of Mr. A. Con over’s horse, who was thrown yesterday, has no received such great injury na was anticipated. One of the small bones of his left arm was broken, and © las received some bruises about the face and head. He is expected to recover in a few days. Stats or tHe THERMOMETER.

The fire was promptly got under. The gover) opinion pre- vails that it must have been the work of an incendiary; perhaps some party ited in the papers which are filed in the Clerk’s office. This is the third Nol made to fire this department. The incendiary evidently had a design on the papers in the Clerk’s office, as the fire was discovered sesniciisiely under this office. A great tion of the ceiling of the basoment underneath the office is completely charred. The smell about the Court room was extremel disagreenble during yesterday. The apart- ment in question, w! "fire originated, is used, as ere the’ a place for keeping old lumber, and none of the attend- ants belonging to the Courts have had occa- sion to go there for some It is also used for keepi coal in winter. colored people who live underneath were the first te cause the alarm; and Mr. Keefe, the keeper of the Courts, with his family, escaped suffocation from the volumos of smoke that arose at the time. Some of the Fire Com- panies who attended, and whose number we have not as yet ascertained, deserve much credit for the prompti- tude with which they put out the fire—as the whole renge of buildings, in which is situated the Marine Court, United States Courts, several public offices be. longs ig to the Corporation—Alms House Office; Croton Water Committee Office, and a valuable range of public buildings would inevitably have been lost were it not for the romoes and energy with which the sowipaniss acted.

Nag’s Head, in Barclay street, other articles. Brooklyn City Intelligence. Fata anv Metancnory Accipent 1N Brookiyn.—On Monday evening,about 9 o’clock, Mr. John Van Sicklin, a well known and highly respected resident of New Lotts, L. I., was proceeding home in his wagon ; when about two miles from Fulton Ferry he overtook two swill-carts, each containing two large hogsheads, drawn by a yoke of oxen. In endeavoring to pass them, he ran against a pee of bricks, which upset his wagon, and threw him eneath the wheels of one of the swill-carts, one of which pasted obliquely across his chest, crushing it ina most frightful manner. He was immediately taken to an adjoining house, where medical attendance was promptl: rendered him, but without any success, and he lingere: ite of insensibility until between ten and eleven k yesterday morning, when he died. Accipent at THE Futtoy Ferry, Brooxiyy.—At an early hour yesterdaymorning,as one of the market carts, drawn by a pair of mules, was going on board the ferry boat, in ‘consequence of its not being drawn close too at the time, the mules got their lega in between the boat and the ferry, taking off one of their legs clear from the hock, and injuring the others in several parts, so that one of the animals was obliged to be immediately destroyed the other was rendered comparatively worth- less. ie Company promptly settled the affair by pay- ing $250 for the mules. Inquest.~-The Coroner, Mr. Andrew Oaks, held an inquest yesterday on the body of Mr. John Van Sicklin. Avotisa.—Also, on the body of an unknown man, who was foundon the shore in the Kighth Ward (Go- wanus) opposite the Morocco factory of Alderman Bur- bank. He was about 50 years of age, and was dressed with check shirt, dark satinet jacket, vest and panta- loows made of same. He wore ‘a belt round his body, and was supposed to have been in the water six or eight weeks. In our paper of Monday morning, under the head of “ Brooklyn City Intelligence,” we gave the particulars an inquest held by the Coroner on the body of an unknown woman,” since when the glesses she wore, er With a purse, which was found on her person, been recognized to be the property ofa . Fulton, who resided with a family at No. 76 Fighth Avenue, who left there some days previous to the body Being discovered ; and it is now supposed the body found must have been the person above named. Lost Criupren.—It appears that the Coroner has made arrangements for the reception of lost children, at his residence,in Fulton street, an act which no doubt will be much'appreciated by the public generally. His i after day visited by one or more auxious aking inquiries after a truant child through the great e he Coroner; been restored. There has been several in- stances latterly, of Mr. Oaks’ kindness extended not only to children who have lost their way through Brooklyn, but also to adults. It appears that Mrs. Oaks, when these children are brought to her husband’s office, takes hem at once in chai and provides them with all the y require, and that she has for all id trouble declined any fee or reward for doing the same.

I braced my mainsails, set my jib, squared the yards, gave him a broad-side, raked him fore and aft, and left him a floundering hulk.

It ary Mount ke i stable n his lifetime, and that a day h, defendant took possession of the stock in the stable, and sold them at public auction, by virtue of a chattel mortgage, made by Mount for $150, and that the goods did not bring sufficient to satisfy the debt and costs. The charge of fraud was raised inst this mortgage by plaintif, on the ground that it was mere cover to defraud the creditors. The defendant roved that on the receipt of the mortgage he paid $75 jowy, and promised to ‘a day ortwo; Ray the other $75 that he had frequently loaned money to Mount, and Mount actually did owe him $150 ; that before Mount’s death, he told’ him to take charge of all his stock, that mentioned in the mortgage and otherwise ; that he done Albany Citizen, July 7.) so, and, at Mount’s death, sold the same. The judge charged the jury, that, if this mortgage was made with intent to defraud creditors, it was absolutely vo they believed that the defendant was innocent of such fraud, they should find a verdict for him for the goods mentioned in the mortgage, As to the goods taken by defendant, not mentioned in the mortgage, if they believ- ed from the evidence that Mount, in his lifetime, had given defendant possession of them, or made a bona fide transfer of the same to defendant, they must find for the defendant generally. If, on the other hand, they did not come to this conclusion, they must find for the plaintiff, for the value of those goods; and if they believed the mortgage to be fraudulent, they must give the plaintitf a verdict for the amount claimed. ‘The jury will render a sealed verdict this morning.

Oyer and Terminer, v 8.—Negligent Watchmen,—True bills were found against the two watchmen, whose culpable neglect was made the subject of just and indignant commentary, in Judge Edmond’s charge, reported yesterday, in which hnis honor took occasion to reprimand those functionaries for gross and wilful neglect in the discharge of their public duties, which led to the actual perpetration of a cruel murder in our very midst. The accused was tried and found guilty in the last May term of this Court. In the month of August, 1844, the murder was committed ona colored barber, named Livingston, near the Gas House, Canal s by @ man named Jones, while in @ state of intoxication. Jones has been since te tenced to a term of five years imprisonment in the State Prison. It will be recollected that on the trial, as we notlced in yesterday's Herald, these two re- doubtable guardians of the night, tes! d that on the morning of the murder, between 1 and 2 o'clock, the pri- sonercame to them at the watch house, corner of Prinee and Wooster streets, complamed of having been robbed on the highway by some men, one of whom he had stab- bed,and tl pent he had killed him, andyet the witnesses took no further notice of the compiaint. Further, the murderer stated to them his name, place of residence, occupation, &c., yet when a reward was offered for the discovery of the assassin, the watchmen gave no infor- mation to officers, or endeavored to secure his arrest. His Honor commented strongly on these facts, and pre- sented the conduct of the delinquent public servants to the jury for their investigationfand such action as in the case shall by them be cousidered requisite.

The canse of this great decrease inthe business of the principal Western depots, can be traced to the low price of produce, the increased con. sumption of the products of the soil in the immediate vi" cinity of their growth, and the ability of the farmer to hold for better prices, or to consume it at home.
