Turspay, May 5.—This being the regular day of the meeting of the Club, a respectable, but not very numerous attendance of the members, as- sembled in the new apartments of the Institute. Col. J. S. Skinner being voted to the chair, and | the question for the occasion being “Indian Corn,” | comprehending within the term all that could bear a reference to its cultivation and intrinsic proper- | ties as a valuable, nutritious and indispensible commodity of consumption, as well as to its pro- | fitable results, and as a material of exportation, much interest was excited by the various bene- | fits described as characteristic of its diversified ap- | plications. The secretary read a paper upon its origin, identification with maize, and its prospe- rous eeowth on the Seine. An allusion was inci- al dentally made to the Aracachia of South Ame: ca, as a substitute for the potato, and its prolific qualities. The chairman regretted that no ana- lysis of the northern and southern corn had been made. A prejudice existed against the former, which, from his experience, was justifiable, and confirmed by Col. Clarke, who attributed to the northern corn a si- lecious character, that impeded expeditious cooking, ex- gg Sod moisture that was necessary to its prepara- ‘he kernel of the southern was softer, and conse- ently moisture was more immediately imbibed. Mr. yck pronounced his opinion of the importance of the cultivation of corn, not only as producing the best bread for man, but as a flesh-making ingredient, most pro- cl tion. fitable for cattle, superior even to oats, or common wheat; and assigned a high value to the stalks for the feeding of arly milch cows—producing a larger and cattle, particul: superior quality of milk to other species of food. A gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Howten) asserted that corn from his neighborhood brought two cents more by the bushel, than Southern corn, which he attributed to its specific weight. of the proportions of yarieties of cor Tuscarora, as that there w: rcely a visible difference between the flour produced from it, ground fine and bolted, and that of wheat, Mr. Hyde stated, also, that in Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, &e., ploughing was only used in its cultivation, jong since discarded; and that as hominy, breaking the corn in a mort penaas of barley, peas, beans, corn and w! rating the proportions of starch and phi He selected some varietios of corn, and by applied solution of sulphate of copper, for the detection of phos- phate. This experiment, also, exhibited the quantity of oilin the corn, and he mentioned a cagpirgs on Lake sixteen gal- aving the success- government light house. Dr. Brown as- sumed the principle, that animals fed upon corn which roduced phosphate, had their bones considerably en- irged, and their joints preseqnanily stiffened. The Club to the exhibi- ion in the city, of ten merino sheep, from England, pre- rtes. Profes- ined the system of correcting the absence of phosphate in soils unsuita- ble to corn. He exhibited some pre and other large rginin, explained he idea of such a substance ox petrified wood, and proving that the origi- nal matter being removed, the form alone is preserved, while the wood is decayed. Mr, Wakeman promised to supply the Club with authentic recipes for the culinary uses of corn, from the most experienced sources. Pro- wing of a new mowing ma- chine, the design of Mr. Clowes; and after explaining its intended advantages, moved the appointment of a com- mittee to examine its merits. Mr. Wakeman presented a series of resolutions from the Trustees of the American Institute, recommending the chartering of a steamer to convey to the National Fair at Washington and back, free from this city and section of the State. The Institute relies on the pub- lic spirit of the merchants, manufacturers, &c. for assist- sign, the expense of which ndler stated that it was ict doubtful whether the object could be accomplished; ut the necessity for such an exertion was rendered im- nts were already in Washington, exhibit- pecimens of foreign goods, prejudicing Erie, where oil was extracted at the rate of lons to one hundred bushels of corn, besides corn in a better state for distillation.

A very brilliant debate ensued; pon its conclusion the bill passed—by a yote of 18 ayes to 6 nays; a motion to reconsider was lost. The House will The b undoubtedly concur.

Aymar. ‘ Dear Sin—As | would not like to suffer for the mis- deeds of my fellow men, neither would | wish any man to be wronged for any supposed faults of mine. ‘There- fore, I think a plain statement of facts is required from me, as relates to the oe: Aymar being ashore. On the 26th saw the ship with signal for a pilot; went on board in that pacity» the wind then blowing from the eastward, and had but a small Jee shore ; was asked by the Captain if I could get the ship under way, and clear the land, without a steamer. I told him I would try, but at the same time I thought it doubtful ; and so said. We then bet aye and made sail, and soon the ship grounded on Ellis Island, the wind light, and nothing here to hurt a vessel. Hauled up and hauled down the head sails, and run out the small anchor ; began heaving when it came home, tried it the second time, and com- menced heaving again, when the Captain ordered the head sails set, to which I objected, as it would be sure to drive the ship hard aground ; he persisted in giving the orders and had them all set, I still objecting. The anchor home the second time; I wished to send it out {the third time, to which he would not consent, but took the boat, went ashore, and in a short time returned with a steamer, Mr. Martineau for his pilot.‘ He then told me my. ere no longer required, and in such a kind of guage, that I thought he wanted me to pay for the breakfast I ate on board, which I offered to do by putting the money on the cap-stand. ‘The above, sir, is a plain statement of the facts, as | am willing to make oath at any time. I leave it now to judges, whose fault it was, that the ship grounded. Your obedient servant, JOSEPH BROTHERTON, N.Y.P. United States Marshal’s Office. Charge of Mutiny and Revolt—Two seamen, uamed Milton ©. Derby and Benjamin Gurney, belonging to the ship Caravan, were sent home from Rio de Janeiro, by the American Consul, charged with leaving the vessel and attempting to make a revolt. It appeared from the papers sent home by the Consul, that these men, with others, shipped om board the Caravan at Fall River, Mas- sachusetts, on the Ist of November last, ona whaling voy - age; that they arrived at Rio about the end of January that in two y after they arrived, the prisoners, three others of the crew, left the vessel, first stealing one of the boats, and various other articles belonging to the ship, Jand proceeded in the boat along the coast to Cape Trio, where they remained one day; after which they proceeded about 40 miles further, when they were arrest- hy and sor back to Rio—they were committed to take their trial. .

The prisoner was remand- ed without sentence. A State Quannes.—The people of Columbus, Ga., and those of Russell county, Ala., have worked them- selves into a passion, and we may shortly expect to hear of a collision between them, which may cause blood to flow. It seems that heretofore the city of Columbus has had the exclusive privilege of charging tollon the bridge mg the Chaltahoocheeftivers. ‘This the people of county seem no longer willing to submit to, and for the purpose of mending the matter have erected a toll-gate at their end of the bridge also, so that persons crossing now have to pay toll at both ends. The city council of Columbus have employed counsel to prose- cute its claim for the removal of the toll-gate on the Ala- bama side, and so the matter now stands. It has assumed such ‘appearance, however, that the newspapers in the neighborhood are calling on the citizens to keep cool and exercise moderation and forbearance. Minitia Traixixe.—Monday last was a regular soldier- ing day in Philadelphia. Every man between 18 and 45 years of age, volunteers only excepted, had to tnrn out, toe the curb stone, and answer to their name.

The water literally poured down in tor- rents all night, and in the course of six hours, the Chatta- hoochee river rose fifteen feet. A cotton gin manufacto- ry, situated on a creek, was washed away and carried down the Chattahoochee, a total wreck, occasioning a loss of several thousand dollars. Merper is Buexs County, Pa.—A young man named William Cutlchow, was murdered on Thursday last, at Bridgewater, on the Neshamony Creek, in Bucks county. He had been drinking in a tippling house with a pedlar, and some others, when a quarrel arose, in the course of which Cutlehow’s skull was so crushed and his body mangled that he died in a few hours. The x4 and se- vere oghors have been arrested. It is said a brother of the deceased was murdered a few years ago, near the same place.
