We are, in fact, as is clearly apparent from this discussion and many other indications, in the very midst of a social revolution, the results of which no one can now predict with accuracy. Its progress, how- ever, is marked by signs and tokens sufficiently me- nacing. The State Convention about to be held, and the appeal to the people at the ballot-boxes in sup- port or against that Convention, are also connected with this movement. If ever there was a time when the conservative influences of true philosophy an: enlightened patriotism were wanted, this is the time. Infidelity is rearing its head in triumph—the wild and visionary theorist, the reekless sceptic, the raving fanatic, the insane revolutionist, are all busy and uniting their torces together, aided beyond their most sanguine desires by a press which is recog. nized as the organ of a powerful political party, and if not timeously restained, this general movemen; will end in some such terrible disasters as marked the era of the French Revolution € Law or Lrvet.—Some of our contemporaries have recently been discussing the law of libel in this State, which they assail in no measured terms, as unjust and defective in the extreme. Now, the simple fact is, that all the mysteries, and injustice, and hardship of the law of libel in this State have been introduced by the ignorance and laziness of the lawyers employed to conduct libel suits. In every case, civil and criminal, the truth can be giv- en in evidence, provided the pleadings are managed according to law, and with such attention and skill as to compel the Judges to observe the law. All the decisions complained of by Greely, Webb, and ‘Weed, were, as we have learned trom the most in- telligent lawyers, the result of the inattention and ignorance of the lawyers employed to defend the the suits, who neglected to press the right to give the truth in evidence ‘The great source of the evils complained of is in the want of a knowledge of what is called special pleading on the part of the lawyers who undertake to defend libel suits. In many instances, it is true, interior Judges have decided contrary to law ; and we have had recently in the interior Courts of this city, several cases of petty libel suits, in which the Judges have made erroneous decisions, which will be reviewed by superior tribunals, and the Judges, both of ward Courts and the Marine Court, who have exhibited their ignorance, will be taught a bit- ter lesson when the cases are reviewed. ‘The law of libelin this State, then, is not at all, in our judg- ment, in the condition represented by the Tribune and other papers whose lawyers have been I too ignorant to conduct their cases with the proper degree of skill and attention. New Way to cer wwro Orricn.—We give in another column a communication from Mr, Edward Sanford denying that he has had any connection with the movement to get up a new democratic paper.— ‘The fact is, we believe, that no such paper will be started at all at all, th Aouncement being merely a ruse on the part of Slamm for the purpose of driving the administration into giving him an office. {t succeeded admirably. Mr. Slamm has been appoint ed “despatch agent,” a snug berth—nothing to do- salary fifteen hundred a year, besides pickings and ftealings. It is astonishing how effectually office- hunting sharpens a man’s ingenuity. ‘The success of Slamm will doubtless stimulate many others to the adoption of the same admirable tactics. We suppose that the next new paper will be‘announced by My. Riell who is now in Washing- ton, Let him instanter issue the prospectus of “ The Democratic Screamer and Jeffersonian Whip,” to be issued on the Ist of September next, and “to be devoted to the advocacy of genuine democracy in opposition to the weak and vacillating course of the present administration,” and we will not be afraid to wager a bottle of root-beer that he will get « cone eulship, or who knows but he may oust the present Collector of this port? Do try it Mr. Riel, and do try, it all ye patient sufferers, who daily knock at the gate, and ery aloud for the reward of your faith and labors.

Alderman Seaman will exert himself but little, as his strength will probably be ex- ercised in favor of Westervelt. George S. Mann and Thomas Conner will stand back, ready for the chances 1n case of non-agreement on any other can- didate. Alderman Briggs will not be a candidate, unless he withdraws from his present position as De- puty Surveyor. Should he be prompted to do this, and receive the secret support of ‘ Old Ironsides” and his friends, his stock will stand high in Tam- many. Ex-Alderman Pentz will carry the Fourth ward and there stop progress, while Alderman Em- mans will never be able to secure the Sixth, unless the “ New Police” of that ward,with their masters, He will bring tohis aid Alderman Sharlick of the First ward, who has concluded not again to appear before the people for their suflrages, unless selected tor Mayor of the city! Charlick is already active in the field, and not only extends his political ramifications throughout the city, but even The amous contract. The people must take this matter nto their own hands at, once, and keep a watchful »ye upon the movements of the various newly ap- pointed ‘* Police Officers,” who have been selected motives in the wards from which they have been elected. Look out—look out. Tae British Reviewers on THE OREGON QU tion.—The British Quarterly Reviewers of all siz have been following up the discussion on the Ore- gon question, commenced hy Sir Robert Peel and the newspaper press some months ago. They ge- nerally assume the same ground adopted by Si Robert Peel, contending for a certain imdefinable right to the Oregon territory, which they find it somewhat diffieult to explain or present in any tangible and intelligible form. : One view taken by these reviewers is very cu rious and amusing, and that is, they assume as an axiom that this country must ex necessitas, be con tent with any arrangement which Great Britain may choose to make in its infinite charity and unerring justice, because the United States are notin a con- dition to go to war with England, because we have neither navies, nor guns, nor men, nor powder, nor money, nor anything else able to cope with the Bri- tish. It may be that we have not the means to go into action of a warlike character as rapidly as the British, but we have certain materials of warfare which can be employed at once, and prove very efficient instruments of assault and defence—and these materials we find in our cotton. We can sus- pend the supply of cotton to the British manufac- turers, and where would be their boasted ability to go to war with us with a revolution in the very cen- tre of their empire? There is no danger to be apprehended from the British government, on the score of war. Should we insist on every inch of the Oregon territory, they dare not go to war with the United States. Wecan originate a terrible revolution in that country in less than six months, by simply withholding our cotton exports alone. Indeed, the whole frame of the Briv tish empire is inthe hands of the United States, and they ean preserve it for years, or whenever the time demands it, crush it like a rotten building, by the mere force of commercial legislation, affecting the exports of this country to Great Britain. Tun Poutck Courts aNp THE NEWSPAPER Press.—We have observed with nota little indig. nant regret the course of the municipal courts of Baltimore,in reference to a portion of the newspaper press of that city, which, under a sense of public duty, denounced the action of those ceurts in a re- cent case. The conduct of those courts appears to have originated in an entire misconception o! their powers, the spirit of the age,and the rights and duties of the public press. It 1s a feature in the ad- ministration of the inferior courts of justice in this country which strikes every intelligent observer with surprise, that the most tyrannical, arbitary, and overbearing conduct on the part of police authori- ties is tolerated here, whilst in England, a country under monarchical rule, such pranks, if perpetrated by persons clothed with ‘brief authority,” would be visited by immediatg and crushing rebuke. In London, such conduct as that recently exhibited by the police courts of Baltimore, and often in this city, would be scouted at once. The law of libel intro- duced by Lord Brougham makes a just, and enlight- ened, and salutary provision for the publication of initiatory proceedings in the Poliee Courts. And yet here, in the land of boasted liberty and superior intelligence and freedom, we see attempts made to go back to the dark ages of tyranny and the “Star Chamber!” Let the press do its duty with fidelity, onawed by the iniquitous threats or proceedings of any court—let fit fearlessly denounce the iniquities of corrupt magistrates and judges, and we will soou have a better order of things. AMUSEMENTS aT Te Warerine Piacrs.—-A grand ball is to be given atthe Neptune House, New Ro- chelle, on this evening. ‘are old wine—and a gallant company of lovely women and brave men. Hlorious musi Reed, the hospitable and enterprising host of the Hamilton House, also gave a splendid ball at his magnificent pavilion on Coney Island, on Fi xt. It was a most ron riday tic and elegant affair. Metancwory Inet —We learn from the Staataraad Vogt, arrived yesterday, that on the night of the 26th of June, in latitude 47 30, longitude 401° passed a long vessel on fire, which was thought to bea steamship. ‘The S. V. was within half a mile of her when the deck fell in. As there were no ats around her, it is supposed that the crew and sengers had left the vessel the day before. If th cl seen was a steamship, she was probably one of the West India Line. Sreamer Micnican.—We learn with great leasure that Commander Stephen Champlain has received p ratory orders to take the command of the U.S. steamer Michigan, on the expiration of the term for which her present c: _ TM hner Present commander was appointed. — Buffalo boa of luxury itself.

On the next floor above, corresponding size, shape and arrangement to the last named one, is the rose- wood department. Here you will find every kind of arucle, and in shape and finish « xact counterparts of the others below, but of a more valuable kind still. Several superb specimens in walnut arrest the eye ; there is no end to the variety of upholstery cabinet work and furniture that are placed all about in pro- wsion. Three or four stores are still above those specified ; the highest occupied as workshops, where all those fine things are made. This isa large establishment. At 351 Broadway isthe warehouse of C. A. Bau- doine. It is a large and elegant place, and abounds with rich valuables. _ E,W. Hutchings & Co. keep another store of a similar description, at 475 Broadway. Here,as in the other establishments, there are several large ware- rooms—the same abundance of rich chairs, the same variety in form, design and finish. This firm has another house at 452 Broome street. We do not deem it bpemere id te enter into further particulars of the contents of these ample stores, as a correct idea of the rest may be formed from an particularly more of the many houses of a like kind that are scattered over the city. It is sufficient to maintain their existence, leaving those who are cu- rious in such matters to look into the directory and tind them if they are so disposed. It is said that every object affords a hint for con- templation to the reflective mind. All this fine fur- niture 18 not barren by any means in this point of view. Who the duce buys all these expensive and rare and curious commodities? what the devil brought them into the republican territory? why don’t they go home where they belong? How for- tunate these thoughts did not obtrude themselves until after inspection, otherwise admiration would have pronounced its estimate of these valuables most lamely and impotently. Their carving would have been only Yankee whitling—their gilding all gingerbread—the tempting rotundity of their care- tully stuffed seats, backs and cushions, nothing but the effect of the fermentation of folly, luxury and pride that makes and pays for them. Pays for them—who does that? Listen. Hen- pecked husbands, whose wives have exquisitely re- fined tastes; republicans, who ape the habits of courts and kings—who cultivate the worst exotics of monarchical soil; bankrupt merchants to saye appearances ; empirics and smpostors to. make fa- vorable impressions ;_parvenus who are ignorant of the uses they were intended for; green grocers, Wall street shavers, retired regues and candidates for Reckrncti certificates. There are a few of those who pay their enterpizing furniture dealers their thousands of dollars, and patronize la dernieve mode. No wonder there should be so many failures in bu- siness, so many Mr. Ready-to-halis as old John Bunyan wo ‘ld say, on the high road of life. How can men pay more than 25 cents in the dollar to their creditors, if they give the other 75 for rose wood sofas to loll upon—when they ought to be working to turn the penny—for Turkey carpets, Chinese vases and paintings, which they imagine are by the old masters because they pay as much for them as though they were? “It cannot be expected that men will meet their engagements who stuff their fine mansions with all that they can call their own and a triflemore. These chaps put one in mind of the cuckoo, who only goes one degree farther, and in waiting till other birds build a nest. and then seizing possession of it to go through with the process of incubation. When will menand women learn to be discreet instead of fashionable; honest instead of distingué, and pay their lawful creditors instead of patronising uphoi- stery and cabinet warehouse men 1% Agra Locomorion.—On Tuesday next a lecture will be delivered, in Palmo’s Opera House, by Ro- bert A.{ West, Esq., on A@rostats, or Air Balloon, in which he willexplain the method by which the Acreo Muzziana balloon may be guided through the air. A model will be set in motion and will traverse the room in various directions at the dictation of the audience ; which will at once show the poseibility of one of still larger size being made capable of tra- velling through the air in any given direction at the rate of about a mile a minute. The object of these exhibitions is the hope ot finding capitalists enterprising enough to aid the inventor, Sig. M. Muzzi, in consti acting a machine on a large seale for practica] purposes. The object is certainly wor- thy of the attention of the scientific and aflluent. Those who have already seen it, among whom have been some highly intelligent and scientific per- ‘ in this couatry and on the continent, pronounce »bject sought for by this machine, to be very resses, kc. Kc. are all very accurate, and the perform: auce of this evening will really be a splendid affair. Mle Calvé, M’mes Casim: and Richer, and Messrs. Ar- naud, Douvrey, Garry and Bernard will appear in this opera. Bowery Tueatee.—The performance last night at the Bowery was similar to that of the preceding ; the same pieces, viz.—‘ Money,” and “The Sleeping Beau- ty.” All the features discernable on other evenings again appeared without any change. The part of Eve, lyn in“ Money” is played by J. R. Scott, who has got over a slight hoarseness contracted by rather badly de- nouncing in the réle of Capt. Copp, “that rascal Ro- chester,” and singing his only song, ‘In the days of the Rump.” .4propos of this gentleman’s acting ; it is high- ly energetic and quite original. His reading of the play is doubtless improved by being interlarded by an occasional ejaculation, such as “damn me,” “I'm damned;” it undoubtedly gives vigor to the text, and hence he may be fairly considered as improving on the various comic and dramatic authors whose plays he takes apartin. Again. “Evelyn's” Byron shirt collar is a happy thought ; to be sure Butwer never thought of seeing his characters wear Byron ccllars ; but if the English are stubbo.n enough to allow their washwomen to adjust their inner garments, that is no reason why their collars are not to be benthere. Evelyn looks the character to a nicety—that’s flat. ‘The orchestra does its share of the work well. We think there is more judgment displayed in the selection of pieces than is often observed. We would suggest the propriety of giving the precedence to well known popu- fir airs, but not to the exclusion of novelties, nor pieces from the various foreign companies altogether. Inthe present day, it is quite necessary to draw upon the Ita- lian, French and German, because it}is the rage—because they do it in Lendon, and for many other excellent rea- sons. But the Bowery is the theatre of the people, and it would be well to give it a smack of nationality by pleasing the popular ear and catching the popular eye. Nothing can be more splendid than that ‘ Sleeping Beauty.” Its magnificent scenery yet continues to ar- rest the occupants of the vastly crowded seats, and keep them as it were, spell bound. Those who have not seen it yet, have delight before them, which ought not to be neglected. Castix Ganven.—The bill for to-night presents consi- derable attraction to the habitual visiters to the Garden- Mr. Parsloe and Miss Pray will dance the pas de deur from the ballet of Nathalie. La Smolenska will also be danced by Miss Pray, and Mr. Parsloe will appear ina pas chinois. Herr Cline will perform this evening his grand act of metamorphosis and farewell scene on the tight rope. Several overtures will also be played by the orchestra, and Mr. Dennison will appear again and sing his agreeable melodies. Ninto’s Ganpen.—The Acronat Famuy’s Benerit-— ‘To-night this truly astonishing troupe announce a great variety of entertainments, among which they will gi their new performance called the ‘Aerial'Suspentionists,’ consisting of numerous feats on ropes, suspended from the roof of the Saloon. Chippendale acts his original character of Dr. Dilworth—Syntax, by John Sefton, and Mrs. Dilworth, Mrs. Watts. Mr. Barnes, the Panto- mimist, dances a pas de deux with Miss Partington, and Mr. T. Placide and Mr. Nickinson take the leading cha- acters in the extravaganza ofthe “ New Footman.” We hear this is positively the last appearance but oge of the Acrobat Family at the Garden this season. Vauxwant Ganvex.—To-night, the fourth of young Francisco, and of O’Connell, the wonerful tattoed ma" with customary series of singing and dancing. A bill welle alculated to draw the crowd to that ever fashiona_ ble resort. Miss Julia Turnbull, the celebrated danseuse, goes to Boston next Monday to fulfil an engagement. ‘She has attained the highest rank in her profession, and is sure of the most favorable reception wherever she goes. Mr. and Mrs. Lovell, old favorites at the Park, have been engaged for next season, at the National Theatre, Boston. The Baker Family are in Woodstock, Vermont, on their way hither. Miss Emma and Miss Fanny Ince, have been atirect- ing crowds tothe Baltimore Museum for the last few weeks. Dan Marble is playing at Chicago. Welch and Mann’s unrivalled equestrian company glares a highly successful visit to Montreal on Saturday at. Christy’s band of Ethiopian Minstrels have commenced a series of Concerts at Montreal. Itis stated, that Mr. Phillips, the Vocalist, was so much pleased with his trip to the United States, that he intended to return shortly with other singers to form an opera company. Mr. ard Mrs. Randall, the Scotch giant and {giantess, in company with Arthur Reddy Scarfe, the celebrated dwarf, are drawing considerable numbers to their levees in Montreal. Mr. and Mrs. Seguin, and Mr. Frazer, were to give their last concert in Montreal last evening. “Have you had any experience in stage business,” said a theatrical manager to a persen who was urging him to give him an opportunity to make a first appearance. “1 never had, ’ said the youth emulous of theatrical fame, “T never had, but I have a brother who drives an omi- nibus ; and I have been myself in the cab line !” Neafie and Wharham, with Miss Petrie and Mrs. Rowe, are now playing at Shire’s Garden, Cincinnati. Sporting Intelligence. CrickeTInG at Sovtn Bosron.—There was some tall cricketing at South Boston on Monday afternoon. ‘The crickets were pitched at four o'clock, and the party played one innings each, i ted until sundown; the score bein, ible indeed. ‘Tuk Season.—The weather yesterday was warm, sultry and unhealthy. Sickness seemed to pervade the atmosphere ; the flies were uneasy and trouble- some; indeed such weather is only good for phy cians with iron constitutions and easy consciences In reference to the weather and seas »n, the Albany Argus of yesterday says:— ‘The drought in this vicinity and west and south of us continues with unabated intensity. It is now more than four weeks since we have had an abundant rain. Suen along spell of dry weather is parching every thing up. It gives the grass an appearance of being baked. The heat has also been so excessive that the sun has been doubly scorching. Northern New York seerns to have fared better than we have here, for we hear of abundant rains during the last month. The crops there, wear the appearance ‘of vigorous health he weather has again become very hot—the thermo- meter rising to 90. This combined with the intense drought, renders the air close and oppressive. INTERESTING FROM THE Care or Goon Horr.— We have received the Cape Town Gazette to the 13th of June. We make the following extract :— Respecting the disturbances which have occurred be- yond our territory, on the other side of the Orange Ri- ver, between the emigrant farmers and the Griquas, we are given to understand that her Majesty's 7th dragoon guards, by a force ch, reached Phil‘polis in time to prevent bloodshed between the contending parties. farmers had captured upwards of 35,000 head of and 250 horses ; and the only point was the restitution thereof, Tre Ponvotse —The examination was closed on Monday evening.—The respondent did not offer any testimony, and the counsel on both side: waiving any argument upon the case, the Commission- ers decided to require Capt.

It has, in fact, the general mart wherein all sorts of out-door % can not only purchase there, stoc! , Canals, banks, &c., but any kind of live stock from ‘a white mouse or canary bird, upto a Berkshire boar or a Dur- ham bull. You may purchase gold and silver, and the best American cutlery—you may submit to a sponging, or purchase a piece of sponge—you may get & note sha ed, or buy capital shaving-cream from the Exchan ps. Money and mince pies. ty funds and soda r—business paper and poodles, all mingle in Wall street. Srones in CuatHam staenr.—We are pleased to soe that a number of storekeepers in Chatham street have i.- sued acard expressing their determination to close their stores hereafter at 9 o'clock. This is a move and y storekeepers the city. autes.—Our markets are now well licious peaches, pears, plums, wa- ter-melous, muskmelons and tomatoes.

We should be glad if the devouring element had spent itself upon the last fire. Loves’Lanon Lost.—A well looking couple, apparent- ly belonging to the better class of farmers, who desert bed themselves as residents of Nantucket, called on Al- derman Hart terday, and asked him to tie the knot which usually binds such parties who are inclined to pass through lite * for better for worse.” Tho elderman and a select number of friends, retired to the Mayor's presence chamber, and the usual queries in relation to their whereabouts, &c., were made. The parties, how- ever, were not able to give the most satisfactory ac- counts, or a sufficiently satisfactory reference, which led Alderman Hart, very reluctantly, no doubt, to deny the gratifying duty of making them’ * one” for life. Both withdrew from the chamber, evidently dis- pleased, amid many curious speculations—some remark- ing that the lady was a rich heiress, who wished to be- stow her hand on her favored Lothario. We hope that some kind hearted alderman will take their case into consideration, should they again call. Board of Super Ave. nk. Ri ’s Case —This Board met last eve- ning. Alderman Cyaruick in the Chair. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. Some few petitions asking relief from erroneous taxa- tion were received and referred. The case of Dr. Reese was resumed. ‘Tromas Dotan sworn, examined by Mn. Eowanps.—I am one of the Trustees of the Fourteenth Ward school; Inever ordered any of the teachers notto read the Bible in the schools; I nevercame in contact with Dr. Reese in his offigial capacity; 1 was present when Dr. Reese examined both the Roman Catholic Orphan Asy- lyms. ‘There was something said there about the read- ing of the Bible. ‘The Sisters said they read the Roman Catholic version of the scripturoe for the cnildren before nine o'clock. Dr. Sweeny was present. De. James Srewart, sworn. 1 am Trustee of Com- mon Schools in Sixth Ward received a notice from Dr. Reese on 29th January last, requesting me to meet him the following day at 9 o’clock, at the school-house in Elm street. I met him there. The teachers in my ward had been paid up to the previous October ; on the Ist February, four months salary was due to them. This interview took place after the resolution of the Com- mon Council notto pay any schools that refused to read the Bible. At the time Dr. Reese was going to commence his annual examination, | got an anonymous note inti- mating thatDr.Reese was about to hold such examination; got it frem a little boy, whose name {| did not know. Epwanp J. Choyx, sworn—I am a trustee of the 6th Ward;l went withDr. Reese and showed him the schools; he seemed to be highly Modell 1 attended his examina- tion, and was astonished to read his report afterwards; he never told me of any meeting of ward officers to be held for the purpose of deciding if the Bible should be read; Dr. Reese got a notice not Reese. ver notified mo to meet the Trustees; | jgned; it purported to come from Dr. Hassrovck, sworn—I am Trustee of Common 3 in LithWard,since 6th June, 1842; Dr. Reese was appointed in September last and since that time to my knowledge he never sent any communication to the ward officers; he has never advised or counselled with any of the officers tomy knowledge; he has interfered so iar as the books of the school are in question; I have ex- pressed to all the teachers that the reading of the Douay ible in the schools, was a violation of the law; and if any Bible was read, it should be the Protestant version. I had a conversation with the teachers about, their pay; but this gave no directions about the reading or not reading of the Bible. Dr. Reese’s conduct has been injuri. ous to the interests of the Ward Schools; his report is a partial one; injurious to the Ward Schools and partial to the Public Schools; his statement in relation to the Orange street school is incorrect. [Witness here detailed the various items in relation to the number of scholars and which he stated were all in- correctly given.) These facts in relation to the Ward and Public Schools, as stated ina vegies and general manner in the report are not correctly given. The remark in the report “that teachers of a foreign accent were employed” is false; the statement in relation to the want of capacity ofthe teach- ers is also a falsehood; the books read in our Ward are those used generally inthe Public Schools, abook enti- tled “Scripture Lessons,” and also “Bibie History,” are both read as Lesson Books in the schools. 1 advised the teachers to erase their names signed to the order on di- rections of Dr. Reese. 1 did not give the advice gratui- tously. Crosseramined by Mr. Ketcnem—I signed the peti- tion; I never saw John W- Bloodgood nor John Ross in the school; I know the latter sends three children to the school; I know Philip O’Brien, whose name is signed to the petition; I do not know if these persons have had any personal knowledge of the facts set forth in the petitions Many persons spe the petitions on my own represes- tations to them; | appear here as counsel for myself and some of the petitioners of the 14th Ward; I have heard the name of a successor to Dr. Reese; | have heard my own name spoken of as such, as well as that of others; 1 am not sure of getting the otic Cxatnman—This cross-examination is not to be ad- mitted before the Board of Supervisors. Mr. Kercnum—I merely want to show the bias—the motive in this matter. Cuatmmas—As a question of unnecessary waste of time, the Board can take it under consideration; but it has nothing to do with tie case before us. ‘Witwess—I have no objection to answer any question that may be put to me. Mr. Kerenum—I want to show the bias, but we shall goon. Was there any thing about ordering the Bible not to be read before Dr. RKeese’s eoming into office? Witxess—The Bible was discontinued in the schools until D.r Reese came in, in September Inst. ‘The Bible was read for about five weeks, both versions alternately, until the Commissioners came to the conclusion that in- asmuch as the law forbid the reading ofthe Douay Bible, it should be excludes ; and they then determined not to read the Protestant version lest the Catholic portion in the schools would take offence and leave. I frequently saw the children playing while the Bible was being rend; aad not much reverence also paid by the teache who slurred over the reading. 1 was in favor of reading the Bible in the schools provided no class of christians felt their consciences aggrieved by it. Avp. Baiaes.—Mr. Chairman, I should like to know if course of examination ought to be allowedl We are going into the Bible question—a matter quite foreign from the b ess before us. I shall stay here for 2 week on the inquiry we have in view ; but this is not to he allowed. Cuaraax.—Certainly. Wiryess, in continuation to Mr. Ketchum.—I never objected to Dr.Reese’s mode of examining in the schools; I never objected to his capacity; | objected to his want of discretion, The Report of the Doctor in many re- ape incorrect; and calculated to produce a false im- pression. The highest salary paid to femala teachers in my ward is $500. My daughter is one of the teachers, and Mrs. Dooly is another. The highest salary paid to male teachers is $900, and some $1000, Mr. McElroy gs this salary inour ward. Some male teachers get 450. Lawrence J. Durry, sworn.--Testified that he isa Trustee, Signed the petition for Dr. Reese's removal; considered he acted in a_partizan spirit, contrary to the interests of education. Had no means of knowing it fur- ther than in_his intercourse with the Doctor on the sub- ject of the Bible. Is averse to reading any Bible. 1 opposition | have to reading the Protestant Bible for Catholic children, is because I know the Catholic chil- dren would withdraw. I consider reading each version alternately, every morning, a real humbug. (Laughter.) We thouhgt it better to exclude altogether. The chil- dren would object to it, and so would their parents. Dn. Hassrovex, recalled.— We dery the right or power of Dr. Reese to at all interfere in the schools. The law does not justify it. We deny the right of the County Super intendent to decide any question on appeal. | Consider. ed the State Superintendent alone had jurisdiction. 1 got it verbally from him that the Douay Bible, if read, would be contrary to law. Dr. I decided that the Douay edition may be read, and we did not appeal, be- cause we considered he had no right to make any de. cision at all. Crrarean—This is going out of the enquiry bef The Reconvenr presented two petitions aguinst th moval of Dr. Reese,” * here read several portions of Dr. Reese's published reports to the Board of Kdueation relation to the subject matter before the Board, which the press has already frequently commented upon. A resolution of the Board of Education, declaring against the action of Dr. Reese on the subject, and dated December, 1844, was read and admitted. ‘The cnse for the complainents having rested. Mr. Kerenus hereupon moved to adjourn to the se- cond Tuesday in September, on the ground of the ab- sence of several of respondent's witnesses. Mr. Lowsnos opposed the motion, no affidavit be- ing made, and delays being always dangerous in such cases, ‘The Reconpen wished before the question was taken, that the Board shoutd first decide if it were necessary to drive the Respondent to a defence fora mere error of judgment. If such aprinciple were established, every sentleman holding office would be liable ta he re inoved, Alderman Hewry would suggest if this was tho time and sg to discuss the matter! There was no motion ing. Nhe Rie onpen—1 will move that from this testimony it is unnecessary to go into a defence. Alderman Besson considered no case was made out. He therefore seconded the Recorder. The question on sustaining the motion was taken and negatived. Ayos, 4—Noes, 12, ‘Fhe question on the motion of the Respondent to be atiowed time until the second Tuesd in September to enter into his defence, was taken and carried. Ayes, IL Noes, 6.

On herarrival here, she found the object of her search in Boston, living with another Mrs. O'Day, alias Ann Costello, whe claimed to have been lawfully married to Mr. O’Day in Burlington, Vermont, and subsequently had been blessed with the “ oo bility” referred to. After a patient hea grieved fair ones, and examining the certific: respective marriages, Justice Merritt proceeded mit Mr. O’Day for trial; when Mr. Price entered counsel for the accused, and contended that the second wife of O'Day had a husband liy- ing in Montreal at the she married him, jhe second marrii was unlawful, and of course there could be no bigamy in the case. Michael O'Day was therefore discharged from custody.

The Firemen—Racing of the River, &e. ‘The Fire Department here is ima sad condition: It seems to have caught the infectionm—the mob spirit of the Philadelphia firemen, as on occasion of every fire, there is sure to be a row kicked up among the class termed “the boys.” This was the case on occasion of the fire on the night of the 4th instant; a fight was commenced between two fire- men, members of rival engines, which, if it had not been suppressed immediately, would have caused no doubt, a display of a considerable assortment of ~ broken heads, mutilated faces, &c., and caused no little excitement in this usually quiet place, ‘The opposition steamboats Troy and Rip Van Winkle cause no little talk between the good folks of Albany. Being on the wharf yesterday I was perfectly surprised to find so many waiting their ar- rival, and when they did arrive, the first questions asked were, which boat started first, what time did they make, Wc. which certainly tends to increase the exertions of the rival boats, to have the glory of arriving first in Albany, and thereby endanger- ing the lives of their passengers, and this all ter uncomfortable, asit is glory. ‘The weather here is ve exceedingly warm. ‘The Orphenca are giving con- certs here, which are, deservedly, well attended.
