Lavine THR Conner Store oF St, James Luitiies RAN Cuurcu.—The English Evangelical Lutheran Church of St. James, have just commenced building a new house of worship in Mulberry street, between Grand and Broome.

Man Docs.—Yesterday about ten o’clock, the trians in Chatham street, near the Theatre, were thrown into a furor of excitement, by the appearance of a large bull-dog, foaming and frothing, running at full speed up the street. Never was room allowed in quicker time for the passage of the most honored or wealthy citizen. The ews retreated into their shops; the apple-women forgot their interest, and darted from their stands—one, in her eager haste, upsetting the whole establishment, scatter- ing apples, pears, peaches, and gingerbread in most in teresting confusion; at which several little boys, forget- ting the danger, their mouths watering for a taste of the luscious fruits and the sweet cakes, stopped upon the walk and commenced a pleasant scramble for the spoils. ‘The dog was pursued, and we believe, finally killed, af ter running into East’ Broadway, upon which order and quiet were restored in Chatham street. No one was bit- ten. Seriously, during this hot weather, the authorities cannot be too particular that the law, to its fullest extent should be enforced upon every unmuzzled cur reaming at large and endangering the lives of our citizens. It is not sufficient that the dog-killers should attend to their business a few hours in the morning, but they should be scattered over the city all day, with a posse of officers to protect them, if necessary. ‘The life of the meanest citi- zen is worth more than all the curs in christendom. Bautatiry i a Fannxt.—Vesterday afternoon a great crowd was collected in the Bowery, who were follov ing a man named Wm Moffat, drogging along a boy about 13 years by a dog chain fastened to his wrists. A great excitemeiit prevailod among the beholders, and they were, with difficulty, restrained from applyin; Lynch law to the brutal father, and freeing the boy.— When arrived at the Station House, corner of 3d street and Bowery, the father made complaint to Justice Roome of disobedient conduct on the part of his child. Justice Roome, however, after inquiring into the matter, found that the parent, who at the time was intoxicated, was in the continual habit of beating and otherwise mal- treating his son; whereupon he committed the father,ant set the boy at liberty. Bounr Distaicr.—This part of our city, which but a few weeks since was laid desolate by the devouring flames, now presents a scene of industry and busy labor On all parts of the ground laborers are engogei in re- moving the rubbish, great quantities of which have al- ready been takenaway. Several buildings have already been commenced on both sides of Exchange Place, and on both sides of Broad and Beaver streets. In a few days, this whole ground will be musical with the sounds of the trowel and hammer. Some of the walls already raised, look a little too thin. Itis sincerely to be hoped that our capitalists and merchants, who have shown their eater- prise and energy in the rapidity with which they have carried on their rebuilding operations, will not subject themselves and our citizens to another loss by fire, on ac- count of any additional expense in erecting thick walls and fireproof buildings. Why cannot we be as secure from fire in New York as the inhabitants of Paris are, perty of the doctor. Although there was no witness to the act, the negro was suspected, accused, confessed the deed, and has been hung. According to the Civilian, the health of Galveston con- tinued remarkably good. The weather had been dry, and rain was much needed. Asemi-weekly mail has been established between | Washington and Austin, to tinue during the session. A correspondent of the Civilan, writing {rom Wash- ington City, has the following :— “1 find it impossible tomake the people here under: stand that President Jones i favor of Annexation.” The following extract of a letter we find in the Nation- al Register of the 24th ult. It is dated— A July 19, 1849. ‘There is but little of interest going en here —the mem- bers of the Convention are becoming. a little more ex- citable as time progresses. Yesterday there was a flare up between Gen. Davis aad Senor Navarro. Davis, in ad- vocating some measure, introduced into his remarks a comparison rather disparaging to the Mexican nation, at which the “deputy” from Bexar took fire, and demanded if the remarks were intended as to which Da- vis rejoined, by denying that he what was al. leged. The seat of Government question, | think, is di tined to raise a row, the “West” having divided ‘upon it between Lagrange and Austin. Below we give an extract of a letter from Capt. Grice, of the Undine, giving an account of the landing of the United States troops in Texas. It is dated— Anansas Bay, July 28, 1845. , the 26th inst., the American flag was first planted in Texas, by authority, upon the south end of St joseph’s Island, upon which Fem landing the troops from the Alabama, inside the bay. There are now 500 men encamped here, and the scene is full of interest. Tho other vessels with troops are not expected to arrive for several days.” The various committees in the convention at Austin | have reported the different provisions for a Constitution of the state of Texas, and these are published at length in the Civilian of the 30th ult. We give some of the more interesting articles and sections as they appear in that paper, premising that the editor thinks that various alterations will be mage in many of them before their final passage. ‘The following articles from the “ Bill of Rights” may not be uninteresting 3d.—No religious test shall ever be required as a quali- fication to any office of public trust under this State. 13th.—No bill ot attainder, ex post facto law, or any law impairing the obligations of contracts, shail be made, nor vested rights be divested, unless for purposes of pub- lic utility, and for adequate compensation previously On Saturd: No person shall ever be imprisoned for debt. Perpetuities er monopolies are contrary to the genius of a free government, and shall neverbe allowed; nor shall the law of primogeniture or entailment ever be in force in this State. Inthe “Executive Department” the Ist section says that “The supreme executive power of this State shail be vested in a Chief Magistrate, who shall be styled a Governor of the State of Texas.” Sec. 4.—The Governor shall hold his office for the term of four years from the time of his installation, and until his successor shall be duly qualified, but shall not be eli- gible for more than four years in any term of eight years; he shall be at least thirty years of age, shall be a native citizen of the United States, or a citizen of the State of Texas at the time of the adoption of this Constitution. The Sth section of that part of the Constitution having reference to the “Judiciary” depaitment of the State is as follows :— The Governor shall nominate, and, by and with the ad- vice and consent of two-thirds of the Senate, shall appoint the Judges of the Supreme and District Courts. The editor of the Civilian is of opinion that this section will become a law, thus taking the election of the judges from the hands of the people. ‘The Ist section of the “ Legislative Department” pro: vides that “every free white male citizen of the United States, who shall have resided in ‘Texas one year pre- ceding an election, and the last six months in the county or town in which he offers to vote, shall be a qualified elector.—Indians not taxed, and Africans and descen- dunts of Africans excepted. No minister of the gospel or priest shall be a member of the General Assembly. The first election to be held on the first Monday, and the following day in November, 1846, and the election shall be held on the same days in November every two years thoreaf We have given as imany of the features of the Constitu- tion of the new State as we can find room for—tive entire document would occupy some four or five columns of our paper. The Civilian says “that it appears to be ua- where a fire is almost unknown, and the spread of flames entirely an unheard of thing? Let fireproof buildings be erected, which will be an ornament to our city and im- part a feeling of safety to our citizens. Gnaxp Miitaky Parave,—A great deal of mirth was axcited yesterday afternoon in the neighborhoed of Ann and Nassau streets, by an umque specimen of military parade. The soldiery consisted of abouta dozen boys, differing in size as much as the army cf Bombastes Fu rioso. Their uniform consisted of high crowned, black hats, with remarkably narrow brims—each one wearing around the crown the label ot “New York Newsboys.” Their commander was a stall, strapping fellow, dressed ina jacket of red flannel with ‘blue facings. He seemed to entertain a high epee of his dignity as captain of a military company. Two of the privates bore banners, on one of which was inscribed ‘Moral Suasion,” on th other, “Honesty is the best Policy. Regiment of N. Y. Newsboys.” They marched in Ann street, Fulton street and ‘Theatre Alley to the music of a penny whis- tle and tin kettle. Probably this movement has some connection with the late news from Coney Island. 1 Brooklyn City Intelligence.

All the beauty and fashion here assembled met to roam through the magnificent grounds and richly furnish- ed saloons—to join in the dance and song, and revel in the luxury which wealth and taste had spread around. The night was clear and lovely. The azure vault of heaven thick- ly studded with millions of stars, which, like | the brizht and glistening eyes of angels, looked out from night’s curtain with seeming pleasure on the joyous glittering throng below; while the pure soft breeze of the south wind fanned the cheeks of the heated dancers as they issued, all glowing in their light robes, from the ball room into the clear beauty of the o’erarching sky—heavenly musie floated on the air, mingling its notes wit!; the murmurs of low fountains, and the gay laugh and merry voices of gladsome hearts. But let us enter the ball room. Js it not a glorious and brilliant scene ? “ RS A ‘The lamps shone o’er fair women and brave men ; A thousand hearts beats happily.” Loud swells the music—Tera-ra-tara, tara rara-ra—ra ! round they go in the giddy, mazy and volumptuous waltz. ‘Then were there burning passionate glances from “great black eyes”—soft pressure of hands, and all the customary tokens of love. A cotillon was call- ed, then a Polka, and afterward a promenade. Shall we walk and view the company! Who is that lady dressed in white, whose dark lustrous eyes, where love lies dreaming, sparkle with delight—whose rounded form uniting all the first freshness of girl- hood with the more luxurious graces of the woman. and whose clear, pure complexion, and animate intellectual features bespeak high birth and a noble soul! It is the highly accomplished daughter of Mr. D-—, of Boston. By her side is the Sylph-like figure and sweet face of our most charming songstress Mrs. M. of New York. There, too, is the stately and brilliant Mrs. O’D. of Baltimore. Here, in- deed, are “Beauties that e’en a cynic must avow.” But there are parvenues and pretenders also. Peo- ple whom you will never behold again—whom it would be difficult to find, unless, indeed, you sought them in some tradesman’s shop, or. insignificant country village. Observe that charming girl, pen- sively seated on an ottoman near the window.— Ever and anon a sigh escapes her bosom, and strug- gles in its progress to escape two mountains of the purestsnow. Her story isa sad one. True love rufiled in its course—once the cynosure of all eyes —the magnet of a brilliant circle—the observed’ of all observers—before the sunny glance of whose eyes, hearts throbbed that never beat before. One alone had taught her how to love, but fortune had not smiled on him. There had been tinkling ee ars by moonlight—stolen meetings—projected elope. ments—all detected by an. intercepted letter. The object of her choice was rich in all the virtues that can adorn man, but without an exchequer. Ma raves, Pa storms. Could he, with his splen- did horses, his carriage, his stocks, and his lands, condescend to wed his daughter to a merely deserving man? Forbid it, pride! He forgets he time when he himself was a porter ina dry goods store, looking to his own honesty and in- dustry for a happy futurity. The goal is won, but the means forgot. forbids the match, places the lady under duresse, and hurries her off to Sara- toga to change the scene, hoping in the hurry and bustle of an imitative fashion, to stem the current of her feelings. Such is a specimen of our calico and tin pan aristocracy. 5 Aristocracy !—amusing word as we adopt it. Miss S—, the sausage maker’s daughter, proud of her fortune, affects to look with ie dies and patron- izing air on Miss A——, whose father was only a successful dealer in live hogs—while her Pa at all events was attached to the scientific manufacture of bolognas. Miss A—, in her turn, looks with the most profound coitempt on Miss B—. who can only claim descent from a candle maker, and dis- dains consorting with any one who could even stoop so low in the scale of society as to deal in © dips.” Since my last letter we have hid a great many fashionable and distinguished errivals, who find ex- cellent accommodations at the United States, Con- gress Hall, and the Union. The smaller hotels ave also crowded. Among those not previously men- tioned, we might name Thomas Dixon, Bsq., con- sul for the Netherlands, at Boston, accompanied by his lady and daughter; Mr. Moore, British consul for New Orleans; Mr. Thatcher, Danish consul for Boston; Charles Bradbury, Esq., and two daughte: of Boston; Mrs. Harrison Gray Otis, of Boston ; Mrs. Trapier and servant, and Mrs. Drayton and ser- south Carolina; General Cooper and lady, Al- Mrs. Mason of New York; Rev. Dr. Cheever, lo.; Rey. Dr. Walker and lady, Cambridge, Mass.; Rev. Henry A. Miles, Lowell, Mass; Professor Proudfit and lady, and Wm. A. Buffum, Lat » New York; Dr. Bethune of Philadelphia ; Thos. Pearsall, Esq.; Drew and Robinson; Thomas Ward, Esq.; Dr. Bacon, author of the Mystery of Iniquity, New York; and about twenty of the first families in the country. The Messrs. Marvin who have long been cele- brated for their hospitality and worth, have several rooms reserved for tashionable and wealthy fami- lies, who are expected to-morrow. At Congress Hall and the Union good accommodations may also be feund. The fashionable season may, therefore, be said to have fairly commenced, and will probably exceedf all others in brilliancy. _ We spend our time in excursions to the Lake— playing billiards and ten. pins at Gridley’s—prome- nading the delightful, walks and avenues, drinking Congress and Pavillion ee water—flirting, in- trigueing, talking scandal, and listening to the di- vine and harmonious warblings of the fairest and most bewitching damsels in existence. The highly accomplished debutante at the Park, Mrs. Cora Mowatt, with Mr. W. H. Crisp, Mr. and Mrs. Charles, and a talented company, are announced to appear to-morrow evening at the Saratoga theatre, in the “Lady of Lyons.” They willno doubt be eminently successful. Yankee Hill, too, an- nounces a series of stories, \c., at the United States; and Professor Maflitt is lecturing on mat- ters and things in general, without descending to particulars.

This hotel is what the literatt of the play bills would style “ crowded to saffocation”—and_ the might, safely call it an “ overflowing house”—for from fifty toa hundred boarders, who teed in this white washed caravansery, lodge inall sorts of out of the way places, exchanging their clean beds and roomy chambers with all the indeseribable comforts of home, fora flock mattress, donbtful sheets, small towels,saucy servants, and just water enough to wash the dust out of the basin.

Just previous to opening the doors, a great number jae on the piazza, and a rush took place by those near the door to obtain tickets, supposing the room would not hold so many as were already waiting. But this was a needless alarm, for about three hundred of the party coolly walked past the Concert room door and stationed themselves at the windows, which were necessarily open on ac- count of the heat, Thatloafers, ragged boys, negro waiters, and those who had “music tn their souls,” but no money in their pockets, should do this, was not tet but I aver most positively that more than filty faehtonably dressed ladies (") stood in the of that,steaming mass, rether than pay 50 cents each fora ticket.

Going to Camp Meeting—Opening Scenes. ‘This morning, at seven o’clock, I took passage on board of the steamboat Columbus, to attend Camp Meeting at this place. We started from New York in the midat of a ter- tible shower, which, no doubt, prevented a great many of the brethern from coming, who otherwise would. After all the passengers got on board, and we had fairly started, the scene on the boat was rather ludicrous. In one place you would see women with band boxes, bundles and baskets; in another place were rocking chairs, cots, beds, mattrasses, (all thoroughly soaked, as a matter of course,) and boxes, coflee pots, frying pans, and every conceiva- ble article for culinary purposes, including cooking stoves, all in a most admirable state of confusion, all of which were on the way, like myself, to the Me- thodist Camp Meeting, and, I rather think, that be- fore the meeting is over, some of them willbe a little the worse for wear. In addition to the regular passengers, were two or three hundred enormously large lobsters in a square bex, topped off with several turtles, of the snapping breed, destined to suffer on the oecasion. So you see that the zeal of the brethren does not prevent them from providing for the comforts of the irner man. On the passage we were regaled by the young Me- thodist men and women on their way to the camp, who in spite of the storm, kept up a continual chaunt from the time we left the dock until our arrival at this place. They were in knots or clubs of six or more, each carrying on its own business indepen- dent of the others, and without regard to what the others were singing. In the centre were abouta dozen singers, male and female, led by two yoang men with solemn visages and remarkably white cravats, who did quite a sn little business on board the boat, by selling spi cual songs with the chorusses affixed, as sung at camp, protracted, and prayer meetings. They appeared to show great partiality for one of said songs, of which the chorus was— “ And when we reach the landing place, In the realms of endless light, We'll bid this world of noise and show, Good night, good night, good night. In another part were some fifteen or eighteen sing- ers, mule and female, with their feet resting on ima eta of prog, who several times sung a hymn or **s; ritual song,” the chorus of which ran as follows, as nearly as I can recollect :— “ Sister will you meet m Where parting is no me: Ditto Brother, &e. &e., Ditto Teacher, &c. &c, After my arrival I proceeded to the encampment, which is situated about one, mile and a half east of the landing, in the centre of a romantic and beautiful grove of oak, sycamore, &c. There are about fifty tents already erected,with every kind of aceommo- dation, but there will be several more, I understand. The tents are divided into private and public. Some are for the sale of straw for bedding for the brethren, (Mem.: straw has risen fifty per cent within a few aN in these parts) and others for the sale of edibles, ve. Not over two hundred have yet arrived, and it is in consequence rather dull, but I hear-that they will be in full blast by Wednesday next.
