NEW YORK HERALD. per 27, 1845. New York, ANOTHER EXPRESS FROM BOSTON, It is our intention to run another special express from day, Novex Boston, on the arrival of the Cambria? If-wind and wea- ther, and all other circumstances, ‘are favorable, we mean to beat our contemporaries most infamously, as our amiable Fourierite neighbor would say. The next intelligence will be of a very important character. While we are thus preparing to afford every facility tothe commercial community, in getting the foreign news to this city, the government is exerting itself to de- spatch the foreign mails to Boston. It has been determin- od to send the mail, for the steamer Britannia, on Sunday next, by an express, over the Long Island railroad, to leave Whitehall, South Ferry, at 3 {o'clock P, M.—the mails to close at half past 1 o'clock. It is said that cars will be attached, for passengers for the steamer, and others. We shall issue an Extra Edition of the Herald, on Sunday, with the latest intelligence from all parts of Tue Presenr Corporation — It is acknowledged | on all hands, and conceded even by the friends of the party in power, that the present city government is the most inefficient and at the same time the mest extravagant that we have ever had, while the abuses which were complained of under former adminis- trations have increased beyond all precedent, and the taxation has increased in the same ratio. As an in- stance of the apathy which has characterized them in every thing except taxation, we will mention two instances. Early in the year, an attempt was made to burn the old alms house in the Park, and lately the public buildings on Randall’s Island were con- sumed by the torch of the incendiary ; and in neither instance was the slightest eflort made having in view the detection of the offenders, either by the offering of a reward, which might stimulate the police to exert themselves, or in any other man- ner—but the Corporation, with the greatest noncha- lance, deliberately appropriated an additional sum of $150,000 to rebuild them. Ass an instance of the in- efficiency, let our citizens look at the way in which the street paving has been mismanaged. Take Broadway, the most crowded thoroughfare in the city. There has hardly been a day during the past Theatrical Pank.—A very fashionable audience assembled last evening at the Park, to witness the representation of Sheriden’s celebrated and sterling comedy of the “ Ri- vals.” Mr. Placide’s personation of the character of the phlegmatic Sir Anthony, was most excellent. Mrs. Ver- non’s Mrs. Malaprop, was, as usual, cited hearty and weil merited applause. The Lydia Lan- guish of Mrs. Bland is one of the cleverest and most charming delineations we have witnessed for a long time. It was characterized by archn vivacity and wit, and will add to the well deserv fair actress has already won. The whole performance passed off with eclat. ‘This evening, the new comedy of “Time works Wonders,” and the “Agreeable Surprize,” are presented. | We hope to see a brilliant and fashionable hous Bowery Tuxatee.—The performances last night at | the Bowery, drew together a very full house, and were received with hearty applause. Mr. Hill, as Seth Slope, was inimitably funny, and excited very general mirth throughout. Mr. Scott, in “ Wallace,” was likewise very successful, and was ably and emphatically well sustained by the great strength of the company attached to this Theatre. Cony and Blanchard, in one of their melo-dramatic pieces, concluded the evening’s enter- tainments. By invitation of Manager Jackson, the “ Washington this continent, and especially from Washington, to goby | Summer that this street has not been more or less Greys,” under the command of Captain McAdam, from this express. Mr. Polk's Message, in America andEurope. Mr. Polk’s férthcoming Message is destined to produce a great sensation in Europe; more than any similar document, from any President, since the organization of the government. This opinion is expressed in all the foreign journals which have been received by the last steamer from Liverpool. They are looking with the greatest anxiety and deepest interest, for the position which Mr. Polk will assume on this,important document. It is the Oregon question, principally, which creates this im- pression in Europe. England, from the plebeian to the patrician, is watching ,with the most intense anxiety the course and progress of this country; and particularly she looks with an almost instinctive dread to the declarations now awaited from the White House at Washington. On the Continent of Europe, the same interest 18 manifested on this subject. Ever since the termi- nation of the last great European war, a feeling of rivalry and jealousy has existed all over the Continent against England, as well on account of her monopo- lies in commerce and manufactures, as for her poli- tical power ; while her recent wars and conquests in the East, have alarmed all Europe and the common- wealth of kingdoms. They are consequently glad, and sympathize with a nation such as the United States, possessed of the same elements as England in the character of its population, and transcendent- ly superior to England in the physical resources of national wealth, extent of territory, compactness of dominion, and probable destiny. We entertain no doubt that the Message of Mr. Polk will correspond with these sentiments, and will body out a policy such as will astonish ngland, and surprise Europe. We have the best reasons for holding these opinions upon the course of the new President—not so much from the twad- dlings and eternal chatter of the government organ under the regime of the highly woman who manages it, but from the character of obstructed by the Corporation artists. For five or six weeks, the block from Park Place to Murray street was entirely shut up ; and to the passer by, the object of those engaged in reparing it appeared to be to keep it as long as they possibly could impassable See the condition it is in at present—enveloped in one mighty cloud of dust from Trinity Church to Broad street, causing immense damage to the costly goods that are for sale in that street, and rendering a promenade through it attended with the risk of loss of one’s sight. In street cleaning, their inefficiency is likewise apparent. While the principal streeets, Broad- way, Chambers street, and others, of the same class, are occasionally swept, such streets as Orange, Thames, Cedar, &c., are altogether un- conscious of being visited by the Corporation brooms. At this present time, the gutters on each side of Thames street, are entirely choked up, and the stream of water which, at one time, flowed where the gutters used to be, has now taken a course directly through the middle. Is it not time for all Philadelphia, escorted by the politeness of a portion of our “Independent Guards,” in citizen’s dress, paid a visit to this house, and occupied a conspicuous position jn the eyes of the surrounding audience. Ore Bueu’s Fanewett Concent.—We arrived at the Tabernacle but a few minutes after seven, and found it already filled to such a degree, that a seat of any k ind was with difficulty to be got. Four thousand persons, it is computed, were present to hear for the last time, the soft, sweet tones of @le Bull and his violin, for it is hard to separate them.

Fracas an WALt srmxet—Fiane-ur AMONG THE Youxu Democnacy.—The Wall street were most agreeably surprised yesterday afternoon by an interesting fracas between the Hon. ‘Alexander Wella, member elect of the Legislature from this city, and the Hon.

The wit, wisdom, ond beauty of Gotham, ere love to congregate. The philosopher, the poet, the | statesman, the merchant and the artisan, all find food for enjoyment. Every nation is here ably represented, and the inhabitant of almost any country on which the sun shines can meet a friend or acquaintance in a morning stroll. A capital opportunity is therefore presented for the study of character, and the observing man finds much that is instructive, as well as amusing and entertaining. i | Great improvements have taken place within the last | dience, or heard in one night's concert, so much that was | calculated to gratify and enchant. rits the reputation he has acqui such sounds heard from the violin in New York ; under the bow of Mr. Bull it was made to give tones almost equal to the tenderest and most delicate strains of the human voice. The children of the Institute for the Blind were all present at Mr. Bull’s invitation, and as a return for this kindnoss to them, they united in singing a pleas- ing chorus, which added, if it were possible, to tho rich entertainment of the evening.

It was the opinion of every rational man, that such would be the result, and the better plan would have been for the counsel of the prisoner to the Judge expressed many days since—that he did spond to the loud calls of four thousand admirers of his ill. Taking up a nosegay which had been thrown to im, in his hand, aud bowing low to the audience, he thus laconically, yet in the most feeling manner, bid farewell to New York : “Ladies the spirit which gives them will never fade away from my grateful heart.” ‘Tremendous cheering followed this little speech, and the immense crowd, satisfied and pleased, departed.

Can nothing be done to abate this disagreeable and dangerous nuisance ? Instactation.—The Kev. Dr. Pot:s, D. D., was last evening installed yPastor of the Presbyterian Church in The exercises were commenced by | prayer and singing. The Rev. Mr. Milledoler preached Gentlemen :—These flowers will fail, but | It is hardly neces- | sary for us to say to those who have not yet heard their | beautiful strains, that they will be well recompensed b; paying them a visit. ‘Their stay with us this time will e short, and the sooner those who have not yet heard sermon, onatext, which he selected jans, Sth chapter, and 20th verse. fated on the character of the early mem! in Church, and the duties of ministers in general. On the part of the Presbytery, certain questions were then put to Dr. Potts, as to wheth- er he accepted the call, and whether he would conduct his ministry with meekness, humility, kc. ; and on an- sworing in the affismative, certain questions were then put to the congregation present. whether they would accept him as their Pastor, provide for his comfortable maintenance, listen to his counsel, and aid him in promo- ting the great principles of christianity ; which were likewise answered affirmatively. ‘The Rev.

There are rumors, indeed, of strenuous attempts having been made to induce him to moderate the tone of the Message on the Oregon question, and | thus to sink the spirit of that document. There is no doubt that the British government has instructed its Minister at Washington to seek for some modi- fication of the position assumed on the Oregon question, in the Inaugural Address,’ since an addi- tional exposition and declarations of the same prin- ciples in the forthcoming document, would embar- rass still more the British government in its foreign relations, and only increase the general embarrass- mentin which she 1s now involved in commercial, as well as in political matters. There is a dread— an alarm on this point in England, and this it is which is believed to have been the cause of those frequent cabinet councils which have lately been held, and not the question of opening the ports. Similar feelings and; sentiments are exhibited by the press in England, and there is an extreme sen- sibility shown by all the London journals, in relation to the developments of American opinion which have been published in the New York Herald; a sitiveness quite characteristic of the general feeling in that empire. In the columns of the New York Herald, during all the last summer, and indeed on every occasion since our existence, our great study has been to promulgate and represent cor- rectly the sentiments of the American people, and of this great Kepublic, in respect both to foreign and domestic topics. On no occasion, within the ten years of our existence, have we ever made a mis- take on this head, and hence the importance given to all the views coming from the New York Herald, by foreign journals. It is true, a feeble and ridiculeus effort has been made in London and Paris, as well as here in New York, by stockjobbers and debauched roués who follow dancing women round the world, to injure the New York Herald and underrate its cha. racter as the established index of public opinion in this hemisphere. But our predictions on every great and important matter in politics, commerce,or religion, have too often been verified by the event to render it possible for us to be shaken or hurt by the puny_eflorts of the lazaroni of society in Europe or in this country. We have cause to be fully sa~ istied w T eputation we have acquired, and our future care will be to deserve a continuance of the same public opinion. Thus it is—Mr. Polk’s message ,therefore,will, ac- cording to all accounts, produce a greater sensation in Europe than has been seen on any former occa- sion; and hence the necessity of the greater care which should be given to its composition and princi- ples, in the present crisis of this republic Anti-Renrism.—There is some difference of opin- ion as to the effect which the Governor’s message will have on the progress of anti-rentism. Many suppose that the clemency extended by the Govern- or, will tend to restore quiet and peace to the anti- rent districts, and others think that it will only add fuel to the flame. Our own opinion in the matter is decided. The outrages of the anti-renters, and the punishment inflicted, will teach them more pru- dence in future; but the spirit of anti-rentism is as deep, and more determined than ever It has as- sumed an undying and permanent hold on the popu- lation of the feudal districts, and their policy will be to carry out their principles by political action. We have no doubt that they will succeed in carrying out their purposes, and the landlords will get a better price by selling out their lands as soon as possible. The corruption of the other parties, and the bar- gains made with them, will give the anti-renters success Arrarns in Mempurs.—The great South Western “Convention has adjourned sine die. It was in ses- sion four days, and closed just in the nick of time It had too strong a political aspect to effect much.— | We believe that the shortness of the session, pre- | venting any foolish outbreak of political feeling, | and the mere recommendation to Congress, will rave some influence upon those now assembling in | Washington; but to what extent, le to | 0 it is impossible to | il, All these tariff, railroad, sugar, Sat one | conventions possess one passable feature, and that is about all—they tend to exhibit the resources ot the sections of the country in which they are held. Faswionabne INTELLIGENCE.—The splendid Capt. Kynders, who has been honored with the sobriquet of the “Don Giovanni” ofjthe democracy, opens the fashionable season inthis city, with a splendid ball, on Friday evening. We understand that it will be quite a gay scene, and all the new dances of the day will be performed on the occasion—the Polka, Mazourka, and various other dances, Several stated rreuchers of the gospel will be present, probably, and which has proved to be correct—and have thus saved many hundreds of individuals, who were call- ed from their business pursuits to attend as jurors, serious inconvenience and embarrassment, and have saved this county some $2,000 or $3,000. As it is, this case has, ‘on this last attempt to obtain 4 trial, cost our county at least $5,000. Orecon—Caten Cusuinc.—This statesman has taken his stand onthe Oregon question, and is in favor of the American claim to the whole of that territory ; and he has shown his sagacity, while Mr. Everett and Mr. Webster have taken the other side. Any American statesman, who does not take his po- sition for the whole of that territory, will undoubt- edly be stranded, and cast ashore. Mr. Cushing is | destined to hold the same influence that Daniel Webster formerly held in this country Daxctnc—Tue Porka.—M’lle. Desjardins has opened her dancing classes for the season, at her residence, No. 74 Leonard street, where she teach- es ladies to dance the Polka, and other fashionable dances, ina lady-like style—not the common Polka, but the Polka as it is performed in Paris and other European cities. p Ra SDT Six Years or Prosrerrry.—If no difficulty take place between England and the United States on the Oregon question, we will have for the next six years a continued prosperity—a sort of rising tide in prices and in values—and fortunes may be made to any extent, provided our domestic and foreign poli- tics remain in a quiescent state.

M.

When the great masters, Rode and Baillot, were in Paris, they witnessed M. Huber’s performances, and they pronounced him to be without a rival, in the classical style. M. Huber gave lessons in the Conservatoire, where it is customary for each teach- er to have only one class for his instrument. . Haber’s talents were so highly appreciated by the directors, Mes Cherubini and Beicha, that they requested ve lessons on the piano also, and he was the only exception to the custom.

The praiseworthy pur- poses to which the receipts will be applied, (the redeem- ing of the debt of Transfiguration Church) recommend the fair to the notice of the well ‘lisposed. Mystentovs Arrain.—At a late hour last night, a young female was observed, by a policeman, to como out of a house of ill-fame in Thomas street, and proceed towards West Broadway, crying as she went along. The policeman, presuming that something was wrong, followed and accosted her, and inquired the cause of her grief. She, however, paid no regard to the interrigatories of the policeman, and pushed onwards towards the North River, the officer following for the purpose of watching her movements. On arriving at the foot of Duane street, she threw off her shawl, and would doubt- less soon bave committed herself to a watery grave, when the officer sprang forward, took her in charge, and condueted her to the Fifth Ward Station House, where she was locked up in a cell with some others. During the course of the night, she made an attempt to commit suicide by s ding herself to the frame work of the cell, Being discovered by the occupants, an alarm was raised, and a guard was placed over her. She ap- pears to be about twenty-two yoars of age, but refuse to give any information with regard to her name or place of residence. Police Intelligence. Female Pickpocket.—Catharine Conley, alias Logan, was “spotted” by offiser Patterson, of ‘the 3d Ward, abont 10 o'clock yesterday morning, in Washington market. He saw her in the act of “sounding” and fin- gering the pockets of several ladies, at different parts of the market, when at last she “touched” a Mrs. Karless, of No.7 Greenwich street, of a purse containing $10 75, when officer Patterson immediately arrested her. At that moment she was seen by Mr. James D. Strong to throw the moncy from her person, Mr. Streng, how- ever, picked it up, and Mrs. Farless ilentified the purse and money as her property. We know this woman to be an old ‘pickpocket ; she was seat to the penitentiary for three months, for picking the pocket of a lady in Fulton market, last fall. Mrs. Bell, of 45 Vesey street, had her pu stolen last Saturday week, containing $105, in the same place, and recognises this woman the person who stood close by her inthe market j before she missed it. This Catharine Conley owns two small houses back of the South Ferry, Brooklyn, where sl ides. She has also a horse and wagon, and goes on Long Island. Committed by Justice Osborne > for trial The Two Policemen.—James Bennett and James Gibbs are both fully committed by his Honor the Mayor, and held to bail: nett in the sum of $5000, and Gibbs in $3000, to answer the charge of grand larceny. The New Captain.—Mr. William L.

Effects of Drunkeness—Last night, the child of John Armstrong, No. 37 Stone street, only five years old, was burnt almost to a crisp by the absolute neglect of the child’s aunt, Mrs. McCarty, who lay atthe time in one | corner of the room, in a beastly state of intoxication, while the poor child’s clothes caught fire, and it was mi burnt to death. The child was taken to the hos- pital in a dying state. P tit Larceny—Johanna Keain, a tall, lanky, long faced, red headed woman, with a bunged eye, was charged by acountryman with robbing him of $15- however, denied the soft impeachment, and swore that she never saw the before—consequently Jo was put through the “Tusking” operation, but finding no money, the ma- gistrate thought best, in his profound wisdom, to send her smile, saying, that would just carry her through the Prison Statistics. It appears, from information P | Gael peo us by Owen Brenan, Esq. that the 17th of October, to the 24th instant, 24 prisoners ‘@ discharged from the State Prison at Sing Sing, their tive terms of imprisonment having expired; 3 were pardoned, and 3 died. There now remain in that prison 790 males, and 61 females; making a total of 851. Common Pleas. Before Judge Daly. Nov. 26.—John Josephs und Abraham Cummings vs. W. A.

An excellent entertainment was provided for them at Stewart’s well known house, and on their return to this city last evening, they were liberally sup- lied with refreshments by Mr. Haires, proprietor of National Hotel in Fulton street, and by the landlords of one or two other equally renowned hotels. The prizes were awarded to Messrs. George Mallory and William Stears. Finr—A fire took place in Sands street yesterday, in a | building occupied by Mr. Anthony asa bakery, and by Mr. Way as a fruit store.

They were fined five dollars each, on the pay- ment of which they were permitted to go to their respec- tive homes. A warrant was issued against a man named Harkham, and his wife,on the complaint of a Mrs. Hannah Stevenson, who accused them with having threatened to commit violence upen her, so that she considered her per- son in peril. The process was placed in the hands of General Storms, (not the famed brigadier and commissary of New York,) who will bring the parties before the po- lice magistrates at ten o’clock this i Brunt, of Gowannus, made an affidavit against a had been in his employ, charging him with stealing a valuable overcoat on Saturday last.

Uxrowrtsate.—A melancholy instance of tho onimu: furandi, which will sometimes take possrasion of the most respectable and harmless persons, occurred at a house in Furman street yesterday, wherein a young fe- male, of good family and connections, w the commission of a theft, which, doubtless, she will re- gret during the remainder of her life.

Mr J, R. Waitine interposed his objections to the previously declared opinions of the Court; and in a very ‘able, learned and conclusively arranged argument, in- sisted that a juror called te the stand, could not by pos- | sibility be considered disqualified because of wis onter- taining the belief that a murder had been committed, aa alleged in the indictment.

Mr. Joupan sustained the opinions advanced by his asso- ciaté,also for prisoner,and ina brief argument contended that the commission of a capital offence, well authenti- cated, and fully improssed upon the mind of a juror call- ed for admission, disqualified such an individual es an impartial juryman—because that a knowledge, either fixed or supposed, that a murder bad been perpetrated, ight yet be | involves the guilty participation of the accused—the | ‘allied with theother. ‘The Count seemed to acqtiesce in this opinion, yet withheld its decision until farther reference—although its opinions were confirmed from the learned and intelli- gent decision of Chief Justice Marshall, in connexion with Col.

A proposal was made some time since by the Western Railroad Company of Massachusetts, to the Worcester Railroad Company, for an amalgamation of the two lin to be governed by one Board of Directors. A committee was appointed by each company, and that committee have agreed upon the terms of the union, under one cor- poration, to be called the Boston and Albany Railroad Company. Among the terms agreed upon, one is that the stockholders of the Worcester railroad are to receive six shares of the stock of the new company for every five of the old. The stock of the Worcester company in selling at about seventeen percent above par, andthe stock of the Western railroad about three per cent below par. Five shares of the Wor r would, therefore, be worth $585, and six shares of the Western, at present prices, worth $582—an difference of only $3 in favor of the Western. The agreement is to be acted upon by the stockholders of both corporations, and we should think there was very little doubt but that the arrangement would be adopted. It is hoped that a new tariff of charges for the transportation of passengers will be adopted upon an amalgamation of these two companies, and that a re duction of at least thirty-three and a third per cent will be made in the price, for a through passage. ‘The returns of the Bank of Montreal for two periods, compare as follow: Li Bank or Mowrarat. | | | lune.
