NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Friday, October 10, 1945. MAP OF TEXAS, MEX!00 AND CALIFORNIA, SHOWING THE GREAT SOUTH PASS. The Weekly Herald will be published at the usual | hour to-morrow morning. It will be an interesting | number, with an excellent Map of Texas, Mexico, | &c , pointing out the Great South Pass through the Rocky Mouatains, as discovered by Capt Fremont. | In the present position of our relations with Oregon and Mexico, including California, this map will be of great value to our readers.

The first trip of this steamer was made in a hit- tle less than fifteen days, and she now comes over with an improved propellor. Fremont’s Expeditions to Oregon and Cali- | fornia—*tock-Jobbing, versus the Progress | ef the Republic. | ‘We have received irom Washington a second co- | py of the report of Captain Fremont’s expeditions to | the “far west,” and as we thanked the President of the United States for the first, we now thank the | premier ef the Cabinet for this one. Butas itis | doubiful whether Mr. Walker or Mr. Buchanan is | the master-spirit of the Cabinet, we don’t know very | well to which of them to render our grateful ac- | knowledgeme.ts for the second copy. They may divide our thanks between them, according to their precedence in the Cabinet on the Oregon question. | Oar readers will readily believe that we feel very | happy in receiving these marks of distinguished fa- | vor from the great men in Washington, and suppose that the copies of this invaluable report have been sent to us tor the purpose of enabling us to place be- fore the country a full view of the remarkable and romantic expeditions conducted by Captain Fre- | mont, with all the engravings, executed in the best | style of New York art, which we shall give, and | have already commenced prepatrtions for repub! | ing the materia) portions of the interesting narrative, | aud put the illustrations into the hands of our en- | graver. In fact, nothing has been published for many monthe that possesses half the interest of the simple narrative, by Captain Fremont, over the boundless region of the west down to the Pacific Ocean. ‘They inay talk of the ‘‘ Wandering Jews,” of their Eugené Sue’s and “ Mysteries of Paris,” and Bul- wer’s novels, but none of them possess the deep and a>iding interest of this report—a narration that car. rica us back to the first exploration of this great con- tinent, and opens up prospects of future adventure, civilization, wealth, and national greatness, which fill the imagination with the most dazzling scenery. Uf it were in our power to issue an engraving with the narrative, to-morrow, we have no doubt we could sell {rom fifty thousand to one hundred and | fifty thousand copies throughout the country—so | wide-spread and intense is the interest now felt in | every thing {connected with the movements in progress towards Oregon and California, and all those vastand fertile regions of the distant West. So strong and powertul is the swelling tide of Maoxeszie’s Boox,The argument before the Vice Chancellor, on the injunction against the sale of Mackenzie’s book has been postponed till Mon- day next. In the meantime, the publishers and ven- ders are restrained from appropriating the receipts | now on hand, probably amounting to several thou- sands of dollars, until the question is settled. The book is now less the subject of conversation than it | was after its appearance; but more accurate opinions are entertained of the motives of its publication,and the history of the whole affair. About eight months ago, we understand from the best authority Mackenzie had an interview with Henry Ogden,Esq formerly an officer in the custom-house. Mackenzie told Mr, Ogden that there were a number of very curious private papers of Mr. Hoyt lying in an ex- posed condition in the Custom House, and request- ed Mr. Ogden to inform Mr. Hoyt of the circum- stance, which that gentleman did accordingly. Mr. Hoyt, however, remarked that the papers could not be of any value, and neglected to examine into the matter. Again Mackenzie saw Mr. Ogden, asked him if he had communicated the fact to Mr. Hoyt, and on ascertaining that Mr. Hoyt did not think it necessary to pay any attention to the matter, he re- quested that Mr. Hoyt should be again informed of | the fact that his private papers were exposed to all the employées in that part of the Custom House, Mr. Ogden again mentioned it to Mr. Hoyt, but the latter was still incredulous and indifferent. It would appear from this that there has been great careless- ness on the part of Mr. Hoyt, and also that Macken- | zie, eight or nine months ago, had no intention, ap- parently, of publishing the private letters belonging to Mr. Hoyt, and was probubly persuaded to that discreditable step by other parties, after that time. Tt isa singular affair, and all the facts are not yet out. Very Late rrom Havrt.—The schr. Bridgewa- ter, Capt. Alden, arrived yesterday morning from Port au Platt, whence she sailed on the 28th ult. We learn from Capt. Alden, that the inhabitants of Port au Piatt and Santiago, had purchased the American barque Albert, and gave her to the Domi- nican government. She was to be immediately armed with fourteen cannonades and two thirty-two’s, on pivots. She was to proceed to St. Domingo City. The Bridgewater left at Port au Platt five Domini- can schooners of war. Before the B. sailed a battle had been fought be- tween the Haytiens and Dominicans, in which the former were entirely deteated, with the loss of ar- tillery, provisions, &c. Produce was scarce; commercial transactions were without interruption. AnorHeR Puwosopuica, CoNvENTION IN THE Fretp.—Philosopher Greeley, ot the Fourierites, announces the important fact that the grand ‘“‘indus- | trial Convention” is to meet next week—on the six- teenth instant. This convention will be composed of asmuch originality in philosophy,religion, morals, decency, and common sense, as made up the recent “‘World’s Convention.” The only difference will be that Mr. Owen, the father of English socialism, will not bea member. Greeley will be the great apostle of the assemblage—as lively, miscellaneous, and useful as the contents of the big sheet that Peter beheld let down from Heaven. Anti-Renrers in THE Crry.—The National Re- popular enthusiasm, in favor of extending the empire | formers, or Anti-Renters, in this city, have nomi- of our civilization and free institutions over the whole of these beautiful regions of the West, tha the stock-jobbing cliques, who dread any disturbance of the foreign relations of the country, and are | ready at any txme to sell their birthright for a mess ot pottage, begin to make strenuous efforts againr, nated a ticket for the ensuing election. This party | originated in this metropolis a few years ago, but ; have never been abie to create much influence. Their? agitators and lecturers have, however, suc- | ceeded so well in the country, that many of them | are now on their way to the gallows and State the onward movement of the democratic impulses of | Prison, to seal the truth of their doctrines. We the masses. The Courier and Enquirer of yester- day, has along and elaborate article, denouncing in the most unmeasured terms, the bold and popular declarations in Mr. Polk’s inaugural address relative | to our right'to the Oregon territory,—representing that region as “valueless,”"—reiterating all the hack- nied and ridiculous fanfaronade of the British jour- nalists and reviewers, and with cool effrontery cha- racterizing the claims of the United States as unjust and indefensible. The motives of the Cowrier an kindred prints are quite transparent. If any line of national policy be likely to interfere with the rates ot commission, or the success of commercial and stock jobbing speculations, such journals as the Courier, Tepresenting not the people—not the impulses and feelings, and rights of the Republic—but petty cliques of stock-jobbers and speculators, at once start up in | opposition to it—denounce it as foolish and unjust, and with ludicrously affected patriotism, point out the awful dangers to which its adoption would ex- pose the republic. Once for all, the American people must and will have the whole of Oregon and California. The Bri tish government have not a particle of right to an inch of ground on this continert. Every toot of the continent is ours by prescriptive right, and the whole country is watching with the most intense anxiety for the Message of Mr Polk, in order to see whether he}will evince any weakness or pusillanimity on this subject, or whether he is determined to adhere to his original manly and national policy. It is utterly vain for any influence to contend successfully against the onward impulses of the United States. A: well attempt to roll back upon its source the re- nistless flood of the mighty Mississippi, as interpose obstac!»s to the aggressive impulses of democratic America. Humpues or THe Day.—Whilst reading explora- tions of the far west, conducted by competent men, and with proper motives, we have also to gptice that sundry imitators are attempting to travel in the same direction, but in such a ridiculous way, as to | will see how many votes the anti-renters can mus- | ter in the city of New York. | Tue “Native” Party.—This party is, it appears, | sinking and waning, as the day of election ap- | proaches. On fcrmer occasions, the Express and Courier, the organs of the whigs, favored and flat- tered the natives; but the tables are now turned, and \ both these prints are down upon their ancient | friends. The Courier is particularly severe. It denounces the “native” movement as “ wicked ” | and “ foolish ”—brands the leaders 1 it as “selfish | demagogues”—and characterizes their efforts as | ridiculous attempts at ‘“impossibilities.” The Courier may spare its powder. Nativism is dead | as a herring. | Mass Devcy.—This distinguished artist has left the hospitable mansion on Long Island, where she | has been rusticating for the last few days, for Phila- | delphia, where she commences an engagement on | Monday next The most intense anxiety to hear | her exists amongst all the musical and fashionable circles of Philadelphia. Her health, we are happy to learn, has been completely established. On her return to this city, the splendid operas of Don Pas- quali aud the Bride of Lammermoor will be produced | an fine style. A Pouiticat Ipor.—The democratic papers seem to make a great deal of fuss about Colonel Young, who has received the nomination of some one of the | Senatorial districts of this state. Colonel Young is a very respectable country gentleman—very obsti- nate in his notions—very old fashioned—very queer —very eccentric—but possesses nothing to consti- tute him the god of any man’s idolatry. In fact, he is a very ordinary mortal, and the fuss made about him reminds us very much of the kitten with the long tail. Courter, with its usual strict regard for propriety, has given what it designates « statement of facts in relation to the case of the ship Auburn, Capt. Bur- rows, and the regular New York pilot boat Charlotte Ann. The truth 18, that an individual named Calaghan, not Callanan,who was for some months a seaman on board, as one of the underwriter’s pilots, and the ship was spoken by the Charlotte Ann, ten miles off, not six, as he says in the Courier, and the services of a New York pilot were offered and refused. The United States surveying schooner lying at anchor, about two miles outside of the bar, being in sight, the underwriter’s pilot was observed to steer for her, probably thinking that she was at anchor on the bar. The New York pilct knowing that the course the Auburn was steering would bring the ship to leeward of the bar,as the wind was south-west,followed with the intention of saving her from the imminent dan- ger of the underwriter’s pilot’s mistake, and hailed | her with the valuable information that the ‘ buoy of the bar” was a mile and a half to windward, and the underwriter’s pilot, thus made aware of the danger, immediately altered hiscours>. Fortunately for the safety of the ship, the wind hauled tothe southward» and she was enabled to yo clear. the indignation of feeling, at seeing so many valuable lives, and 80 much property wantonly and ignorantly exposed, harsh language It is true, that in was used by the New York pilots; and who will not justify them? The ship escaped on this occasion by the greatest good foek. Our New York pilots are ever at their posts, in all weather; and after years of education, an atter the hazard of health, life and property, they un- justly tind themselves deprived, nay cheated of the means of ieee) a livelihood, whilst the pub- lie safety is endangered, by the monoply of the New York underwriter’s, composed of unexperi- enced men. Now, the underwriter’s pilot, Calaghan, must not be mistaken for Owen Callanan, a well- tried and known New York pilot. He, however, does not presume to claim to be a pilot for more than dratts of sixteen feet; and, as the New York pilots, on the occasion referred to, philanthrophically tol- lowed the Auburn, continu: f, sounding, it is a fact susceptible of proof, that Callaghan actually got her into only sixteen feet of water. To crown all, itis also a fact, that a owner of the Auburn was on board of the New York pilot boat, and he was filled with fear and trembling for his property, owing to the display of the aj nt want ot skill by the un- derwriter’s pilot. For the truth of the foregoing, we can refer to Mr. King,from the office of John Taylor, Esq., who made the cruize for his health. But we have the following additional and astounding facts in relation to the manner in which the insurers them- selves are deceived, and the livesand property ot the public wantonly trifled with in consequence of their ignorant attempts to control the pilutage system of our port. On the 2d instant, whilst the Charlotte Ann was on her station, two vessels were observed coming down trom the city, and as their course dis- played gross ignorance on the part of those in charge, the captain of the Charlotte Anne told Mr. King, betore referred to, that if these vessels did not alter their course, they would certainly be stranded The captain was a true prophet. Both did get ashore. The New York regular Pilot Boat—yes! the Char- lotte Aun, so much blamed for interference to save life and property, immediately proceeded to them to offer assistance _ It was offered and refused. Like assistance was also offered by the New York Pilot Boats Blossom and Phantom. The names of the two vessels were the ae Edwards, bound to Charleston, and the ship Star Republic, bound to Texas. The barque remained on shore upwards of two hours; the ship Star Republic three hours and a half, Neither of them had any pilot on board. But itappeared that Captain Buckley, of the Edward,had set himself up as one of the insurers’ pilots, and he was to pilot himself and the ship; Captain Hendly having, at the wharf, refused to take a New York Pilot, was to follow his wake, as appeared after- wards by the ships getting ashore, and, by his leay- ing his own vessel, she having hove to for an hour and a half after she got off, and going to the ship, to get her off likewise. 3 : ‘Thus it appears that these underwriters are wil- ling to allow the vessels they insure to become un- seaworthy in point of law and fvct, by the absence of the master, to the great hazard of life ; both ships were fully equipped with men; had on board loads of passengers; and such is the consequence of their pilotage favoritism ; and if the wind and sea had increased, we should have had the journals of the country filled with “another lamentable accident,” and alf for the laudable. pernees of ruining the real and legitimate pilots of New York. What will be- come of insurances on cargo if captains “deviate” as Capt. Buckley did? And this is not all as to the Charlotte Ann’s cruize, for upon the same occasion the ship Patrick Henry was seen to go ashore, run- ning at least seven knots per hour. She had an un- derwriter’s pilot, one of their best men, on board. The Lord favored her with an east wind, and a con- sequent rise ot tide, and thusshe only remained on shore about five hours. But enough for the pre- sent. Fair of the American Institute, at Niblo’s, The ajtendance has progressively increased every day at this place, and the tasteful manner in which the grounds are laid out, are really very creditable to those who have the management of them. The scene in the evening is quite interesting. Here we see a young couple lost in admiration, not of the ar- ticles displayed, but of one another—they move qui- etly off to some secluded corner, and there employ themselves, doubtless, in comparing notes of what they have seen. There we see a worthy couple, at- | tended by a numerous flock of children, who run about like beings possessed, and shout aloud at each new discovery they make. Again we may see a | foreigner pushing alone,and lost in astonishment, at the “cunning workmanship” displayed by those | pawores sauvages, the Americans. ‘Dear me,” says a country belle, “what a beautiful looking stove that is—would’nt it look well in our hall at_ home ?” “Oh my! what a fine scup,” chirps out a little girl. “Come, move on there and let us havea chance to | see,” says an eager Jerseyman. ‘Guess they can’t | beat those cassimeres anywhere,” says a down | easter. “Oh my!—Joha, what beautiful baby clothes ?” says a wife to her husband. ‘Do come Reuiciovs Inreviicence.—The first of a series | of lectures on the distinctive tenets of the Catholic Church, and the leading doctrines of Christianity, will be delivered on the evening of Sunday next, at create laughter instead of respect. We allude par- St. Peter’s Church, by the very Rev. Dr. Power— ticularly to several circulars issued by a person of | the eloquent and popular vicar of this diocese. The “the name of “A.

It never can be accomplished. The only practical project will be that undertaken by the government itself, when the population of Ore- gon and California will warrant the enterprize. Crrv Taxes.—In a short time the tax-bill of the city, for the current year, will be prepared and acted on by the present Corporation. We are very curious to know whether the present party in power is going ‘o inerease or diminish the taxes as levied upon the anhabitants by the party that were thrust out of pow- er last year. It will be recollected that the “natives” went into power under a pledge of reducing the taxes, and this pledge was carried out by increasing them beyond the amount ever imposed by any other party. The consequence was, that they were driven from the Corporation, and the present party placed '0 power, on the reform principle. Let us see what ‘hey are going to do in the matter of city taxation. Monument or Bronze To Jackson.—This great Tojeet,started by a few politicians at Washington, is alked of in several of the papers with a great dea of enthusiasm, which is,we are very much disposed 'o believe, aflected. We have seen too many at- tempts (0 erect statues to great men who are dead and gone,turn out failures. {n the present case many of the politicians and speculators in bronze, talk like angels, of the facility with which money can be col- lected, and the statue erected, Bat if they could extract the brass from their own Countenances, it would be the readiest process by which the material tor the propesed work could be obtained, All thess movements are intended solely to humbug the peo. ple. Conxnerieut Acainst Rum.—It is stated by Phi losopher Greeley that Connecticut is three-fourths gainst rum. It may be so, but there great deal of very particular spirit manufactured in Connecti- cnt, and we rather suppose that Connecticut is just ns favorable to rum, particularly New England um, as New York is, in this community. Temrieton’s Musicat ENTER TAINMENTS.—The public await with a great deal of interest the com- mencement of these entertainments. ‘The first will be given at Palmo’s on the 15th instant. Arvairs in Mexico.--The packet brig Peters burg, Captain Shapley, arrived yesterday from Vera Cruz, with advices to the Mth ult., no later than those received by the Princeton. Captain S., how- ever, states that the war excitement seems to be all here ; there was none at Vera Cruz. The Empresario, at New O:leans, from Havana, brings intelligence from Yucatan to the 9th ult. ‘The department was tranquil,and the assemblywas | busily engaged in framing a tariff. The Governor ot Tobasco had again prohibited the introduction of the products of that department, into the province under his command. The Siglo XIX of Merida, complains that a Capt. Davis, of the American barque Abola, while in sight of a boat belonging to the brigantine Emilio, which ye capsized during a squall. with three men, refus- e@ to assist the drowning sailors, and stond quietly by observing their struggles for lite. The sailors were ultimately saved by Captain Wilson, of the Br. schooner George, at great personal risk. This is the story as we find it, bat we entertain stron doubts of its truth. American captains are noted for their humanity and courage, and are not the men to suffer even Mexican sailorsto perish without as- sistance. A widow lady numed Merced Cardenas, was buried on the 15th instant, at Havana. Bee, Oct.1. A communication from the commandant of Isle Carmen, the Governor of Tobasco, had again prohi- bited the introduction of the produce of Yucatan. The commissioners from General Inclan, who were set to treat with the authorities of Tobaseo, had not been able to do any thing, as the Stipulations could not be agreed to. Among the most prominent requests on the part of Tobasco, are the tollowing: That a heavy duty be put on the cacao of the coun- try; that all duties should be taken off from inland commerce; that a free cultivation of tobacco be al- lowed, and the import of the produce of Yucatan; that foreign flour be allowed to be introduced, hese stipulations were so at variance with those from the Isle Carmen, that the commissioners could hot come to terms aged 100, —N.

In the space near the fountain, a great quantity of ploughs of all kinds are display: ed, and many are the learned disquisitions heard from erudite ploughmen upon the meritsand deme- rits of each one. **This, you will see, is peculiarly titted for subsoil,” says one champion—“Ah, but this goes the whole figure,”says another—and so on, | to the end of the day. While We are writing about | this fair, we have thought it not inapplicable to give | such facts as bear upon the state of manufactures of different articles in this city, and show what amoun: | of capital is produced by them, and the number of | hands employed. We have based our observations on the ground of the census of 1840. The census which has been just concluded, and the results | of which are not as yet known, will, doubtless, show an increase, proportionate to the increase of the city | Since that period. | The value of hardware, cutlery, &c., amounted to $135,800-—giving employment to 145 men. ‘The value of precious metals amounted to $889,460, employing 492 men.

Harrison, of New Haven. They also appointed two Committees, one for the recommendation of officers to preside at the Con- vention, and the other to arrange the order of the business of the Convention, They meet again this moraing, at 10 at the same place, when various business will be transacted, At halt past seven in the evening, there was 6 | large and fashionable attendance at Dr. Dewey’s church, in Broadway, and quite an interesting ad dress was delivered by Mr. Meigs, on the improve- | ments in mechanical and agricultural affairs.

Parnx Tuxatar.— ‘We know not how it Is, but so ig is,” that with every presentation of the Kean’s, this house is more densely crowded, and truly they are wor- thy of it. A more accomplished, talented performance, on the whole, has not been enacted this season, than that of last evening. The chamber scene where Juliet tak the Friar’s draught, was one of the finest aver presented to the public. At the termination, many a handker- chief was held to the eyes~all appeared to be lost in feeling and admiration—but in a few moments the majority recovered their feeling and the greatest applause was responded. The whole per- formance went off in like manner amid every symptom of approbation. The petite comedy of the “ Four Sis- ters” succeded, in which Mrs. Skerrett showed herself more at home than was generally expected. There is nothing like giving room for talent and ability even with stars, The play of the “Stranger,” by request, comes off this evening, and certain it is that the Kean’s will be worthy of the call. Bowsry Tuxatae.—Last evening, the drama of Rook- wood,» drama filled with scenes and mcidents of the most intense interest, was performed at this popular place of amusement. Mr. Milner performed the charac’ ter of Dick Turpin, and managed his “bonny Bess” in fine style. After Rookwood, the ‘Idiot of the Shan- non,” anew drama, in which the celebrated pantomim- iste, Messrs. Coney and Blanchard, and their wonderful dogs, appeared,was performed. The evening commenc. ed with the new and laughable farce of the Railroad Station. To-night the Black Rangers is revived, toge- ther with the Idiot of the Shannon, and Raymond and Agnes. Castie Garpen.—Last night, a capital burlesque o' Fra Diavolo, called Black Diabolo, was performed at Castle Garden. The original music is sung and adapted to such funny words, as to make one almost split his with laughter. This is the last week of the bur- lesque company. To-night the same bill is presented. Nisio’s.—“Change Makes Change” was repeated les, night. The house was tolerably attended. ‘o-night the performances are for the benefit of Mrs. Mowatt, and are Romeo and Juliet, and the farce of the Double Beddod Room, in which Mr. Placide appears. We hope that our young American star will have a benefit indeed this eve- ning. Everything, now-a-days, is done by Convention, therefore let it be called the ‘‘ Mowatt Convention,” and let all the delegates from the city of New York be punc- tual in their attendance, Patmo’s.—The Ethiopian Serenaders are attracting very crowded houses indeed, the public being unwilling to loose the few remaining nights they are to perform.— But we are in hopes that they will manage to let us see more of them, Perhaps we may yet have that pleasure Oraronto or Davip.—This splendid Oratorio, the com- position of that eminent musician, the Chevalier Neukomm, is to be pertormed this evening at the Taber- nacle, by the Sacred Music Society, to be assisted by Mr. Seguin, Mr. Fraser, Miss Northall, and Miss Wind- muller. The subject of this Oratorio has reference to some of the snblimest passages of holy writ, viz: the history of the youthful David,bis encounter with Goliah, and his life with Saul, concluding with his crowning as King. The native majesty of the narrative in the inspir- ed book is sufficient to strike any reader with awe, but when clothed with the splendid music of Neukomm, sung by the voices of the great artists engaged for the occasion, and the chorusses | en! by the two hundred performers of the Society, will make it one of the most splendid Oratorios ever given in this city. In addition to the artists we have already named, the following will also sing, vi Andrews, Dunning, Nash and Bell. Mr. U. C. Hill is to be the Conductor, and Mr. Edward Hodges the Organist. We anticipate a splendid treat. Tue Swiss Brit Rincens having completed their Eastern tour, will return to this city in‘a day or two to lay a farewell engagement of three nights at the Ta- beteacte commencing on Monday next. In order to enable all the world tohearthem for the last time, they have reduced the price of tickets to twenty-five cents are now accompanied by Miss Caroline Hiffert,who was received with great favor in Boston, Lowell, New Bedford and Nantucket. She is said to possess a splendid contralto voice, and to sing with great taste. Such an entertainment as is offered bytheso extraordinary artists, at ap moderate a charge will,crowd the Tabernacle. Dan Marble is at Cincinnati. ‘They are performing the melo drama of the “Female Horse Thief,” at Baltimore. Messrs. Knoop and Fosso are giving concerts on the violin at St. Louis, M. and M’me. Candlebeck are giving concerts at Co- lumbus, Ohio. The Antonio Family are giving their display of attitu- dinizing at the same place. At the National Theatre, New Orleans, Mr. Charles Webb and Mrs. Ewing, are taking the leading parts;they performed in the “Wile,” lately. The Oratorio of Samson is to be performed next Sun- day evening in Boston. Herr Alexander, the magician, is at Detroit. The Bell-Ringers succeeded well at Nantucket. There is some difficulty, apparently between the Com- mon Council of Bosten and the National Theatre,regard- ing its license. Sporting Intelligence. TRorriNG OvER THE Unron Course, L. I.—Yes- terday there was a pretty good muster at this course to witness a match for $200, mile heats, in 250 lb. wagons, between S. Hoagland’s gr. g. Bell Hanger, and 8. Cross’ ch. g. Empire. The following is the resul ‘S. Hoagland’s Bell Hangs S. Cross’ Empire. . Time—; , The two first heats were well contested. In the third heat Empire ran a considerable distance, his driver having lost the control of him, by which he came in first, but in consequence of his running, the heat was given to Bell Hanger. _ The purse for $200 between Americus, Duchess, Moscow, and Ripton, did not come off, but if the weather 1s at allfavorable, it will come off to-day The interest taken in this affair is most exciting — Only the three first are likely to start. The pouae ran rendezvous of all sporting characters, the field was the tavorite—five to three on Americus—seven to one against Moscow—two to one against Dutchess against any other named animal. Considerable business was done at these figures, Lavy Surro.k acaixst Time.—The match of Lady Suffolk against time is to come off to-morrow over the Beacon Course. The general impression is that the Lady has her work to do. The odds last evening were five to three against the Lady.

Soon after taking it she was seized with convulsions, and remained in most hor- ning, about 9 o'clock, ded by death. It is ve: fortunate that the depositions of the poor taken, or as is often the case, “nobody would to blame.” Her seducer is her own cousin, and a rude, clownish looking fellow, possessing neither intellect or refinement of manner.

Not a police: within a mile of the place to apprehend the offender.

Burnt Distaict.—When completed this will be one of the handsomest portionsof our city. In addition to the fine new buildings, Broad street is to be caised four ine and a sewer censtructed from Wall street to the East er. Currappe—On Wrecneaiey svaning a man was brought to the Station House of the Eighth Ward; he was very sick and it was thought necessary to send for a Physi- cian. The captain of that district immediately proceed- ed to the house of a physician, living in the vicinity of the Station House, and requested him to visit the sick man, He refused, giving ns his reason that he would not go among such a set of swindlers and scoundrels. Had the poor fellow died, who would have been to blame ? Tue Panx Gates.—The gracel that give entrance to the Park ought to be removed. They’ ‘are continually getting out of order, and c much useless trouble in opening them. The entrap to Boston Common are the most convenient, and at the samo time the most neat and beautiful of any thing of the kind we have ever seen. At the entrance there are several tall granite pillars about two feet apart, affording ample room for passengers, and at the same time preventing horses, cows, and other animals of the kind from entering. Something of the kind adopted here would add very much to the beauty of the Park. Watt Staget Navication.—-It is in contemplation to build a bridge acrossNassau street,at the corner of Wall, tor the convenience of foot passengers.

Gama.ina amona CLerxs.—There are two examina- tions in progress now, before the Police, of Clerks whe have been discovered to have embezzled the money, of their employers to yhid amounts, and squandered it in ambling. One is the clerk of Messre. Holford, Bancker Co., of Wall street, and the othera clerk ina large dry goods house down town. The first has embezzled $80,000, which has all gone to gratify his inordinate love of play. By false entries, his drafts upon his employers’ funds remained for a long time undiscovered, but as his fortune failed him, he commenced embezzling larger amounts, until it was impossible that his detalcation should be any longer concealed. 8 lost but about $3000. The particulars igation are not yet made public, but will be known ina few days. We have before warned merchants, bankers and others who employ clerks, to keep a sharp eye upon them. There is, probably, much more embezzling of employ- er’s money than is generally known. How is it that young clerks, the sons of r parents, who receive during the it few years of their clerkship but about enough to board and cfoth them, manage to d: evenings at theatres, is heavy iron gates i They are allowed too are placed in situations in which they could embezzle hundreds and thousands of their employer’s money without his discovering it.

For some time past I have been emploved in tuking the cen- sus—the number of souls is 4000. Now, as respecting Oregon, I have explored the whole country, and I think it the finest upon earth —the soil is very good—the timber go tall that ave seen 18 rail cuts, eleven feet long, gotten om of a tree twenty inches through at the butt. The climate is fine too ; I have not seen any ice this ter, but we have had five months’ rain without in- termission; still our stock keeps fat without teeding them any.

Poricy Irims.—Since the opening of the Law Courts atthe County Jail, business at the Poliee-oftice has been “dull, stale, flat and unprofitable.” Yesterday afternoon @ great number of Dutchmen were in attendance—some ag spectators and some witnesses—in an assault and battery case between a ‘cow doctor” named Schiller and another individual, agaist whom the learned Esculapian had made complaint. In consequence of the absence of Judge Church, who was engaged in other business, the trial of the cause was postponed until this day. John Doherty was arrested on a charge of committin; a brutal assault upon a’ little boy about thirteen years oe age. There was some dispute aboutéthe price of some. potatoes, and defendant scattered them over the street, and then, Beat the boy unmercifally.

Boarp or Epucation.—The all engrossing subject of discussion among the members of this Board, at their meeting on Tuesday evening last, was in reference to the rival claims of two school book authors, each of whom clai superiority ove: the other in their modes of teaching “the young idea how to shoot” A very angry and very unchristi long been carried on between the: ite fame, through certain nawspepors which were enlisted to fight their respective battles; and the result of their desperate contest is * one disconcerted, and none killed.” Serious- ly, if the book committee had discarded the productions | of both these persons, and sought elsewhere for such | elementary works as they deem requisite for the proper instruction of ¢! ren, neither they nor thi posterity would have lost auything by the experiment.

In contrasting the war laws and slavery of the ancient Gentiles, with those of the Hebrews, he took occasion to speak of the barbarity of Sesostris, who cut off the hands und feet of torty prisoners whom he took in war; of the indignities which Achilles and his soldiers heaped upon the body of Uector, every one of the latter having thrown a jtvelin at the fallen hero ; of Hector, saying to the ‘eoutital Andromache, that in the event of Troy be+ ng taken. she, the idol of his heart, would be made captive, anda drawer of water ; uad of ihe poisoned irrows of the Greeks; and although we are pressed with the moderation of the Romans 1 war, yet of that nation, evento the day of Cesar mtting to death the magistrates of the conquered ties. He then referred in an eloquent style to the coustitution of Moses, which he said was assailed vy the enemies of revelation, on account of the se verity of its war laws, which contained two princi ples, the one thatif a hostile city surrendered with- rut resistance, its inhabitants were spared on their weoming tributaries, and if the city resisted the males were put to deatn, and its women ind children made captives, but that after= twarda essential moditications were made in those laws by Moses. The Professor thet raced the subject of slavery, which, he said, had its origin in the remotest antiquity, and de- cribed its operation under the Romans and Greeks, he Egyptians and Asiatics, and the efforts of Moses o abolish it, and his success in disarming it of most efits evils. He then showed the hand of God in the Jestrnetion of Babylon, and in the rescue of Moses rom the Nile; and painted his character as a law: siver, philosopher, distorien, port and judge, and his Jeath at the advanced age of 120 years ; nnd com- vred the last moments of the life of Moses with those of Washington, the former resigning his robes ot office, and the latter returning his swoid to tts eobbard, both after a lite of tiaelulness and without i stain.
