NEW YORK HERALD. he New York Wednestay, September 24, (844. ——=3= ‘The Episcopal Convention. — This long and anxiously expected meeting will commence at 10 o’clock this morning, at St. John’s Chapel, in this city. The peculiar position of all the parties that are coucerned or interested in the issue of this Conven- | tion, is very interesting to lookers on; and to ob- serve the solemn satisfaction with which this cleri- cal set-to is looked forward"to by both parties, forms | quite anamusing scene, The two newspapers, The | Churchman, and The Protestant Churchman, the former supporting the cause of the Bishop, and the latter opposing it, have for sorne time past been in- dulging in pleasant litle encounters, of which their ditlerent papers have been the theatre, but their final bulletins were issued last Saturday, and us far as they go, the quarrel is at a stand still. Each of them calls on their friends in the Convention to give the victory to their side by their votes and speeches. The Churchman takes rather a curious ground for | the present state of things. He anticipates a quiet | and peaceful Convention; as says he :— i} “The minds of men (it is oaly the infant mind which isa" tubuls raya”) on both sides are doubless already etiy well mate up, and doth sides we are inclined to conti wil account it a saving of time and temper to bring mat vis to as speedy an issue as courtesy and pro- | priecy will allow 3 { efirms us in our angury of a peaceful Con- | | tion vetter disposition which prevails in regard to the Bis 's support, for we understand that o who regard resignation as the pr evils. ave Stull in favor of con or quiet and repose deep and extensive as we believe it tobe, it will pre- dominate in the Convention and give tone to its proceec- ings This betokens confidence in his cause, but he | proceeds, in another article, to give our friend, the Rev. Col. Webb, a suitable admonition for inter- | meddling in what tne Churchman thinks is no quarrel of his, and gives the reason that it did not before notice the Rev. Colonel’s attacks on the faé mous circular that was sent to many of the country clergymen of the Diocese. The plan adopted by the Churchman, it will be seen, is somewhat similar to that of throwing atub to an angry whale to amuse itself with,when the harpooners, having diverted its attention, can strike it more securely. “tis some weeks, perhaps months ago, that a daily paper of our city attempted, in its blustering wuy, to ex- cite the odjum of its readers against a portion of our clery, in consequence of a“ Circular” sent, as was al- | leg “d, to all the clergy, and in order, as was insinuated, to combine them in ai attitude of hostility to the laity, and to stifle the freedom of debate at the ensuing Con- vention Since then other kindred journals have pro- longed the blast, and one in particular has from week to week poured forth a flood of virtuous indignation against the andacious authors of the “Circular” for their craft and presumption. When the as: first made, we were requested to publish the said “ Circular” in order to expose the groundlessness of the complaints. ‘This wo Were averse to do,because we thought that to deprive the opposition of one topic of declamation would only lead them to seek out or invent another. Now, how- ever, that they have expended their breath and the Con- vention is at hand, we give the document in order that the public may see how gratuitous tle clamor which has been raised against it.” Such is the state of affairs on the Bishop’s side. The Protestant Churchman, in its final bulletin, gives the Bishop but little hope, and goes so far as to say that even were he restored, “that his useful- ness in the Diocese is destroyed forever. In the face of that evidence and that verdict, it is impossi- ble for him (we say it with a sad heart, but no less solemaly and firmly) hereafter to officiate to the | promotion of the peace, weltare and true interests | of the Church.” | The third clerical disputantis the Cou- rier and Enquirer, and a full cobumn was yesterday devoted to the consideration of the subject—Bishop or no Bishop—and the Reverend editor comes out decidedly oa the No-Bishop side. He enters into a critical analysis of severa articles in the columns of the Churchman, and conwidering he is merely an amateur theologian, he argues quite logically—lnying down the law to the whole Ganven- tion in quite an authoritative style, and making him- self quite a prodigy ot knowledge as regards the whole of this question, and concludes by hoping the whole will be “thoroughly, yet moderately, dis- cussed.” Thus stand the combatants, each one confident | | losophical and general remarks by the editor, Wm. | the editor of the Tribune. | ine. Parvate Porrticas, History or New Yors.— Ovrrageous Pustication.—Since Monday last the town has been fairly overrun with a publication in the shape of a singular pamphlet, under the follow- ing title: ; THE LIVES AND OPINIONS oF BENJAMIN FRANKLIN BUTLER, | United States District Attorney for the Southern District of New York ; AND JESSE HOYT, Counsellor at Law, formerly Collector of Customs for the Port of New York ; With Anecdotes or Biographical Sketches of Stephen Allen, Isaac Q.

The politicians and papers for the last few days have been highly excited, in cos- sequence of the disclosures. Only two of the news- papers, however, the Tribune and the Express, have published these letters, and they have been strongly denounced by all the rest of the press, as guilty of baseness in publishing the private correspondence ot individuals. Singular enough, the Tyibune published some of the letters on the same day the book ap- peared, showing there must have been some secret arrangement between the editor of the pamphlet and This Mackenzie, it will be remembered, is a fugi- tive from the Canadian gallows, which he certainly would have graced, had he been caught during the attempted revolution in that British Province in 1837. According to the newspapers, it seems diffi- cult to account, amidst the numerous rumors, for the means by which this person got hold of the do- cuments in question. Some say they are fictitious, but as far as we are enabled to judge they are genu- It is very certain that Mackenzie did not him- self furnish the facts which connect the letters, for they impart political information he could not know. From this circumstance, it is supposed he has been assisted by certain parties behind the curtain, in getting up and publishing this pamphlet. Others al- ledge the letters were stolen, and that Jesse Hoytand the parties implicated ought to endeavor to bring an indictment against the individual who has commit- ted the act, whoever he may be. So think we. The whole affair has created an intense excite- ment among politicians in this city. Some believe the information connecting the letters together was given by M.L. Davis, formerly in the Custom House, or by the Ex-Collector. We doubt this. Mackenzie, it will be recollected, was appointed to a situation there, at the instigation of the Tyler admi- nistration; he has been a Tyler man fora long time, very hostileto Van Buren, and made his retreat from the custom house when Mr. Van Ness was re- moved. The appearance of Ex-President Tyler at this time may have some connection with this publica- tion, for it is now well known that the meanness, duplicity, and unexampled infamy of Tylerisin ex- ceed all that was ever heard of before in this coun- try, as will be seen before many months are over. Among the otiier letters are eight—we believe that is the number—attributed to the proprietor and of his cause and victory; which side will win, time alone will tell; the parties have both entered the lists the trumpets have sounded, and the jousting match is about tocommence. In accordance with the old custom, we can only say “God detend the right.” Revotutionary Movements in New Yorx.—It is not known to many that there is a revolutionary club, or committee,called the National Reform Soci ety, which meets every Wednesday evening at Cro- ton Hall, for the purpose of taking measures in re- ference to the propagation of all sorts of radical re- forms, advocated by the revolutionists of the day. This important revolutionary club has issued several very curious reports, besides patronising a weekly organ for the dissemination of their sentiments.— | This is the standing club who keep up the connec” tion between the anti-renters of the interior and those entertaining similar views in this city. Its | members are formed of young and enthusiastic phi- losophers, full of the spirit of reforming every thing from the wighest to the lowest points of society. In point of temper and disposition, it has only reached its first formation, being a sort of Girondist Club; tor it will take some time yet before it reaches the third or tourth formation, which may be called a Jacobin Club. Its discussions and debates are most inte- resting, and we will give a report of to-morrow evening’s proceedings. QUARRELLING FOR THE Sports.—Since the Presi- dent began hie removals from and appointments to office, a great deal of violence has taken place be- tween the appointed and disappointed. We are in- undated with communications from the large At- lantic citiea, as well as trom those in the interior, evidently written by office-seekers, who have been disappointed. We have piles upon piles of commu- nications, some of them taxing Mr. Morton, of Bos- ton, and Mr. Lawrence, of New York, with mis- conduct; others also, containing strictures on Mr. Horne, of Philadelphia. Many of these are vio- lent personal attacks and cannot receive any atten- tion from us. We do not sympathize with this quarrelling between the President and office-seekers, nor do we care if he change his collectors every month, and the collectors their employées every week. Mr. Morton, of Boston, is nodoubt, as good a public officer as any of his predecessors ! so is Mr. Lawrence of this city, and Mr. Horne of Phila- delphia, too, and so are they all. Granp InpustriaL Convention.—This great con- vention of philosophers of the day, will be held next | month. Mr. Owen, the philosopher, has just arri- | ved from Europe, for the express purpose of attend- j ing ic as a delegate from that portion of the human race on the other side of the Atlantic. This con- | vevtion will be composed of all the philosophers, socialists, radicals, savans, believers and unbeliev- | ere in every species of reform talked of in the pre- | seut age. It will be one of the most motley assem- | blages which have taken place since the convention met in Noah’s Ark before the deluge. We hope the present is not a premonitory sympton of a similar catastrophe. Some of the most original theories of society, politics, religion and law, will be discussed, and it is intended to have « direct operation on the approaching State convention in this State, about to be called for remodelling the Constitution. We be- lieve the venerable Robert Owen will be the presi- ding genius, infusing life and spirit into the whole affair, Sreamsuie Great Western.—This lucky sekner was spoken by th®Metoka, from Liverpool, on the 20th instant, in Int, 4030, lon. 67 40; also on the game day, at9 A. M., by the Henry Newell, in lat. | 40 37, lon. 67 20, going off in fine style, under steam and sails; and also on the same day and same hour | by the-Clara, in lat. 40 34, lon. 67. It appears by the | Jatrer that the observations of the Newell and Clara slightly differed, : | all parties. Asa political weapon, or move ment, the | ie defects his own, | whole testimony is almost an exact transcript ot | cerned that our informant is in error editor of this paper, J. Gordon Bennett, written be- tween the years 1820 to 1833, to Jesse Hcyt. They are correct and genuine, as far as can be recol- lected at this time, although some of the inferences drawn by the Editor of the Trtbwne from them are | not admitted, but are infamous and atrocious, as will be seen in a day or two, when the whole affair will be ripped up and developed by this journal. The Editor of this paper never had any transaction with Van Bure or his friends, which he is afraid or ashamed to have made public, and he never wrote a single private letter in his life he would object to | have published to-morrow. The other letters in | this pamphlet display a set of tastes and purposes any thing but moral or creditable. The singular ] mixture of piety and humbug in Mr. Butler’s—the | strange conglomeration of profanity and stock-job- bing in John Van buren’s, and the peculiar quali ties of Martin’s himself, will be much relished by | brochure is unimportant. The character and repu- | tation of Martin Van Buren and his political asso- ciates, is just the same to-day as it was yesterday, | and has been since the beginning of his career, If the private correspondence of the Whig editors and | politicians were published in the same open and unblushing manner as that in which this pamphlet gives the letters of the locofocos, there would not be found the weight of a pin of difference between them. The only regret we have is, that we are found in such bad company; but that is the last period of our life in which we will be found among such mi- serable politicians ; we found them out in the right time, and will never be caught in their company again. TriaL or Bio Tnunper.—This trial creeps on very slowly. We have looked over the evidence of | Sheriff Miller, Col. Reot, and John J. bush, and cannot perceive that there is anything in it but what came out on the last trial. The identity of Big Thunder and Boughton is the sticking point, and unless there are more new witnesses produced on the part of the prosecution to clear up this knotty question, we think those who calculate on a convic- tion are far too sanguine. The above witnesses are among the most important to be examined. The what it was before. Rerortep Fracas 1x Newcasrie, Deu.—We have received a letter from Neweastle, Del., which details a fracas,said to have taken place in that town last Saturday. It grew out of the clandestine mar- riage o: Barney to the daughter of the Chief Justice of Delaware. Is it possible that the Chief Justice of a State would éngage in a fracas in the open street and in broad daylight? We hope for all con- Lyxcu Law.—We are told that a man of a wife and family, in the town of Haverstraw, Roekland county, was rode upon a rail about a mile, by some of his neighbors, on Saturday evening last, for having manifested unbecoming friendship with other women of the neighborhood.

The Court room was crowded to excess, but ow- ing to the cxcellent arrangements of Mr. Webster, the captain of the guard, the utmost order prevailed Atten minutes to twelve, Judge Parker rose and delivered the following charge to the Grand Jury :— THE CHARGE. Gentlemen—It becomes my duty on the present occa sion, in accerdance with long established usage, to call your attention to the state of the County, as regards Crime, and to instruct you in regard to the duties that de- volve upon you. We meet for the purpose of discharg- ing our respective duties under very extraordinary cir- cumstan For the first time in the history of this State, a Court of Oyer and Terminer is opened ina Coun- leclared in a state ofinsurrection. We find ourselves here surrounded by a military force, whose aid it was found necessary to obtain in order te enforce the law and preserve the public peace. Your jails are filled to over- flowing, and all around you have the evidences of anar- chy and crime It is certainly a mostextraordinary state of circumstances to be presented in any section of the Union, but least of all, would it be looked for here—in a County, which for nearly fifty years, has been foremost in its attachment to tne institutions of the country— which has been known abroad as Rasertera a popula- tion industrious and virtuous,and comparatively free from crime. Yet this is the County now declared by the Ex- ecutive of the State to be im a state of insurrection. Itis certainly a most melancholy picture, that is thus presented on all hands to youreye, and great as always are the responsibilities that devolve upon a Grand Jury, they are infinitely increased on an occasion like the pre- sent. Afall times your duties are of high importance, for you take the first step in the punishment of crime. You stand in the front rank im administering penal jus- tice. If you fulter in the discharge of your duty, crime goes unpunished, and the lives and property of the com: munity are unprotected. It is, therefore, at all times a most important duty that devolves upon the Grand In- quest of the county, but in the present circumstances, it becomes invested with far more than usual weight and solemnity. When the government of the country, and the very existence of our free institutions have been perilled by rebellion in your midet, and which have been preserved only by the strong arm of the law, aided by military force—it seems to me that your cuty cannot be discharged with perfect fidelity, without looking back upon the causes of this most unfortunate state of things It is well known that this matter originated in the differ- ences between landlord and tenant. A feeling of deep hostility against the leasehold titles that are held from the landlords, has pervaded a very large portion of the State. If that feeling had been manifested only in dis- cussions of that question, either by individuals or b: associations—either by the public press or by public meetings—if it had been contined to such discussions, no evil, but probably good, would have been the result. But it is deeply to be regretted that thoso resi- ding on these leasehold farms, should have been so far misled as to place themselves in an attitude of resistance st the law, and thus violated, to the greatest ex- tent, the rights of others. It is undoubtedly true that a sympathy has been felt, throughout the whole commu- nity, for those who hold their farms by leasehold titles. There was a general feeling that it was a kind of tenure not. compatible with the nature of our institutions It was regretted that it had existence. That sympathy would still have existed, and still have encouraged those who held la’ ded property by that tenure, toa fair and peaceable discussion of the subject, and contributed largely to a settlement of the di ices that existed be- tween them and those landlords, if they had not pro- ceeded to acts of violence, even to the shedding of blood. That bas turned back the stream of sympatiy. It can- not be expected that the sympathy of an honest commu- nity will be extended to those who violate the laws, and array themselves against the very government under which they live. Undoubtedly hundreds, thousands have been misled in regard to the character of these ti- tles. Those lands were Branted in large tracts, before evolution by the colonial government. Tie titles were given by the sovereign authority; and it is_a prin- ciple now recognised throughout the civilized world, that unappropriated lands belong to the State, ard the right to give a title to them rests in the soverei rity, So it here. These titles to la lands were thus granted to individuals, and of the revolution, the titles which hi others by assignment or devise, remained unchanged and unimpaired. The change of goveriment dees hange the title to dual In all it is recognised as still ng, especially in the case of those who hold allegiance to their coun- try. And on this principle an act was passed in 1787 by the legislature of this State, expressly recogniz ing these titles. Jt was only in cases where per- sons holding these lands had placed themselves in oppo sition to the power eventually established hy the Revo- lution, that the lands were confiscated and returned to the possession of the State. Much doubt has unques- tionably been entertained by the tenants as to the validi ty of these titles. And itis to be regretted that lectu ers from abroad should have come into your midst and | inculcated wrong notions in regard to these things. It is as necessary to the tenant as to the landlord that titles fora long tme held should not be disturbed. It is claimed that the tenant when sued for rent should be permitted to require that the landlord should prove his title~ that is, that the tenant should be permitted to dis- The law now does not permit it,and very wisely too, because the tenant enters under the landlord —nis title is the title of the landlord, and if he defects it ‘The interest of the tenant in the land 1s in almost all cases far greater than that of the landlord. It is clear that ifthe litle of the landlord be defected, that of the tenant must fall, and both lose their interest in the premises. Besides, it is a principle recog nised throughout the civilised world, that where land is held and possessed under any title fora certain length of time—twenty years in this state—the title should be re- garded as established—as not open to controversy. A person in possession for twenty years becomes the legal owner, even against the paper title not exerted or en- forced within that time. And it is certainly a wise provision of the law. It would be dangerous to change the law at this time. You can readily perceive that very great evils would flow from any disturbance of titles. Here is avery large portion of pane county between the two branches of the Delaware; it is occupied under the Hardenbuigh pa- tent. Now, if a question were raised as to the validity of that title ‘where land has been held under it for sixty, seventy and eighty years, what would be the conse. qnence? If shown that originally the patent did not co- ver that land, it must go to the State, or into some other hands from the preseut proprietors, and, of course, the tenants entering under the landlord would have notitle and lose all their improvements. You perceive, therefore, that the greatest of all evils, so far as property is con- cerned, would fall on those tenants if they were to suc- ceed in defeating that long established title. And how much worte for that great number of farmers. thousands r perhaps, 10 own the soil themselves if that title were de- jeated. T have all derived title under the Harden- burgh pat They would lose the labor of their whole ives, and the titles to their farms pass away. The law elyrequired in all parts of the civilized world that pse of time should put this question at rest. And it 18 by no means probable that at this late day the titles to all these lands are to be disturbed, leading to endless litigation and the rnin of thousands. jt is idle to suppose that the iegatats can grantany relief against laws of that kind. The lease is executed by the landlord to th: tenant, and a counter-lease ix executed by the latter, re cognizing the title of the former and taking it from him, subject to the covenants of the lease. It is a solemn com pact vetween them, and no legislature can interiere with the rights either of the oue or the other, It is beyond its power to do #0, An act of the legislature that Would declare a contract, fairly and honestly ew tered into, null and void, would be itself void, because it would conflict with the provisions of the Constitution of the United States, and all courts, from the highest to the lowest, would ' be bound to den its validity. Vested rights cannot be infringed upon. ii the conditions thus voluntarily assumed by the tenam be onerous—if desirable that he «should be discharged from them, it must be done by compromise—by pur- chase—by arrangement. But in no case can the Jaw step in and de ich a contract between the parties void, Ideom itmy duty onthe present occasion thus fully and frankly to ee the law as to there matte: Because | speak to the Whole country through you standing ina | pgp a in which I cannot eaitty ave any interest. in aquestion of this kind, Tacemit my uty to speak plain! to you what ought to be the opinion entertained of thia subject, and if possi ble, to counteract the evil influences which have grown f a wrong impression. oubtless there are some within the reach of the legislature. They may modify the remedy, but théy cannot interfere with the right.

They thay tax the rents accruing to the landlord; and, above all. they have the power to declare that nu such lease shallbe hereafter exacted. It is very much to he re- Gretted that this latter remedy was not applied at the or- ization of the government of this State. Many of the evidences of feudal tenure were thus abolished. “Knight her be ge fa blown overboard, but was not otherwin injured, and will bri x " that disastrous news ie penn — pg eine | e @ | #@rvice” and various other things of that des cription were abolished by the legislature of that day.

The contrast thet is now pre- sented is most deeply to be regretted. In por- tions of your county, 1 am told that the crops have | not been harvested. Although heaven has continued its blessings upon the labor of the husbandman, yet the hus- bandman—having in an evil hour been led to the com- mission of crime—having listened perhaps, to foreign lecturers, and having been thus induced to place himself in ttitude of hostility to the law—has fled and left rops to perish. And here the contrast is equally | striking. In a community where but little crime was manifested, hundreds now crowd your jail: trial—many of them, I regret to 2: for & Ca) offer Itis enupeining § t things of this kind should exist in » government like ours—that a portion of the people should be found warring against their owu govern: ment—for it is here a government strictly of the people. If errors in legislation have been com- mitted, you have the power to correct them. You cun give governmont a right direction, And yet strange as it seems, you find a themselves in open rebel portian of the people, placiog lion against that government, refusing to enjoy the rich blessings purchased by the blood of their fathers, and placing themselves in a posi- tion to destroy all the institutions that have thus far blessed them. ‘This is, indeed, greatly to be regretted Chere can never be ina free government—a government of the people, either necessity or excuse for treason. If there he any thing wrong, the baliot box is the place where redress is certain’ The power is the peaple’s own, But ft must always be peacefully oxerted—never by force. It is certainly surprising ‘that the tenantry should be found forgetting in theri treason against the State, that if these designs were accomplished, it would ba infinitely worse for them than for the landlords. ‘The law is more necessary to protect the tenant than the land- lord, The tenant has much noed of its protection.

Their s and their property can never be protected except herefore surprising that w—that this stroke against it— who have much more need of its protection under whom they hold This most unfortunate subject, gentlemen, is the first that presents itself meeting here for the admi- n of criminal justice, and the one that will doubt. aim a large portion of your attention in the dis charge of your duties as Grand Jurors. You should careully survey the whole ground, and if an instance is brought before your notice of violation of the law, you will examine it firmly and fearlessly, but with due regard to the rights of the accused ; and if you find that a crime has heen committed, and you ascertain who has commit- it, you will present that offence and its author be- the Court by indictment ; you will be instructed by istrict Attorney as to the law in cases of this de- scription, Several sections of the statute should be ex- amined by you in order that you may understand per- fectly the nature of the case, and the grade of crime. It is said, gentlemen, that the returns made of petitju- rors by town officers, have not been honestly made in some cases ; and this is intimately connected with the bject on which I have just addressed you. Into this you should carefully look. It is indispensable'to a fair ud- stration of justice that petit jurors should be return- the returning officers in the towns, honestly, and ini ed by r ' it is your duty, avery high one, to look carefully’ into that matter, and if you learnany instance in which the returns have been dishonestly made, you must present that case, by indicement for trial. You will look cai fully at all the offences, numerous as ttey may be, that have grown out of this state of things. ‘Wherever the law has been violated, it is your duty to present the of- fender for punishment ; you will give to every complaint before youa full examination, being careful not te pre- sent causelessly any individual or case. It is impossible to say what may be the result of these transactions, un- less court and juries discharge their duty with unshrink- ing eae But of one Cen we must, I think, be sa- tisfied. The law will eventually triumph. Disorder ma: reign for atime. Officers of the law may be resisted, nay, even their lives may bo sacrificed whilst in the faithful discharge of their duty, but it is now evident, 1 think, to the mind of every reasonable man, that the law will eventually triumph—that it will be enforced—that the guilty will be brought to punishment—and that it is idle ina Community like this, to suppose that a compara- tively few individuals, by placing themselves in resist- ance, can succeed in overturniag the government or de feating the execution of the law. ‘The promptness with which the people of this county, after the late most un- fortunate transactio_s came forward and adopted the ne- cessary measures for protecting against these aggres- sions, and arresting the offenders, is evidence that the law will triumph After the late tragical occurrence, I learn that people from every town that was not disaffected, presented themselves ready to serve their country in any capacity in which their services were required, deter- | mined to enforce the law and to punish the aggressor: and those who thus voluntarily presented themse! were not landlords. They had no personal interest in this question. They must have been prompted there- fore by feelings of patriotism—by love of country—hy a determination to sustain the institutions of their State, for they came forward without any interest in the ques tion, aside from its public character, to peril their lives, if need be, in defence of their country, and the integrity of its laws and institutions. This, gentlemen, is the high- est and most gratifying evidence that the law will tri- umph. Woneed not doubt as to the result. It may be that these difficulties may continue fora time. | trust, however, that there are already evidences of general submission to the law, It will be your duty to look into this matter fully and to ascer ain, if you can, the causes that have led to this state of things. You will, therefore, look carefully at the manner in which the question has been treated by the public press. That is a most powerful engine for good or for evil. It does much in this free country to sway public opinion, aud it is to be protected in its freedom to any extent that may not be dangerous to the rights of the public or of individuals. The public press has a right to publish all thut is true, provided the publication be made with good motives and tor justifiable ends. But it may transcend the limits of legal and safe exercise of its power. And if you dix- cover in reference to this question, any existence of licentiourness of the press—of publications not true, incendiary and inflammatory in their char- acter, and intended to stir up’ sedition, it will be your duty to present such cases by indiet- ment. The law gives you the power and authority to take up that question, and to ascertain whether the proper liberty inerely has been exercised, or whether afew presses have gouve still tart nd attempted by falsehood to sow seuition. It is not for me to express any opinion in this matter. I submit it to you. It is, however, gratilyiz g to find that tresh evidence of the as- cendancy of law and its triumph, is to be found in the fact the public press generally, and with only a few ex- ptions, has been found on the side of government, of law and of order. [The learned judge then made the | asual reference to the offen aguiust the | of the | State—lotteries and usury, which required th | of the Grand Jury, and concluded thus]—I do n it necessary to charge you more minutely with the details of your duties, because, | in this Grand | Jury men known to me for many years, and who are fa- | miliary with the duties which again devolve upon them.

At about the third bj\, Hornbuckle was caught by Paris in fine style. bowling was excellent, cautious and cool. The fielding at this early state was deficient, showing that it was not equal to the play on the other s greasy or stiff fingers to catch many balls. Boyd’s play was most excelleat,not only for the runs made,but for the mischief he prevented as regal stops, which was con- siderably applauded. J. H. play drew forth consi- derable approbation; he made some of the finest hits of the day, maki ten in three hits, one of them, a six run, by driving the ball over the stone fence at the further side of the field. Harry Wilson layed most cautiously, making a “ good score.”— ‘he play of James Buckly was greatly applauded, as long stop, playing cautiously, and giving a good account of himself. Phelps made some good play, but after scor- ing well was run out by Buckley. Julian, after some five or six balls, was caught by Smith. ried his batout. Thus ended the first innings of the Brooklyn Star Club, scoring 78 runs, 2 byes, 1 No. ball, and 1 wide, receiving about 195 balls in about one hour and fifty minutes. At a quarter before two o’clock, the Sheffielders took the bats. Bishopinthe second ball went out. Harry Wilson’s long stop told well—scarce a ball escaped him. Hinsaxs wicket Looper was most effective, and between them prevented scoring. Pidcock made a one or two catches; the ball slipped through hi ‘he thereby losing achance of throwing out some of his best opponents ; but so it is, the best players ha ome: times the worst luck. But the friends of the Sheffield were nothing daunted—they offered 10 and 12 to 8 onthe Sheffielders, which was freely taken.

Mr. Berry carried his bat off the field. 29 runs were made, and 2 byes—total 31, receiving 110balls. At about 10 minutes before four o’clock, the Star Club went in for their second innings. Luck uppeared to be against them at the offset ; Boyd oniy scored one when he was caught by Bi i bat upwards of 1} hours,,when he was caught by Paris; Warren met with a similar fate trom Boyd to Beaver.

James Buckley also showed himself, although a yoang man, a very superi- or player; he was in upwarde of an hour anda half, and after some most capital cautious batting, scored 18, when Smith caught his stumps. J. Hardy also made some ex cellent play, scoring 19 when sun-set was called. To al- ter the scoring thus made, a change of bowlers was had recourse to, but with little succe: Pidcock tried hard aa! threw wide almost every ball sent, and one or two others were little better. When sun set was called, and after some refroshment, three cheers were given for the Sheffield players by the meinbers of the Star Club and others present. ‘Three others for the worthy host, Mr. Jas.
