New York ay, September 20, bsae, ton, the first of July last, offered a fine opportunity gradually to introduce this change of system most advantageously into the United States. During his voyage from England to New York, he has written several short articles for publication in the newspapers, to explain to the public vari- ous parts of the system which he says is about to supersede the present old and thoroughly worn outsystem, which is no longer fit for the govern- ment of society in its advanced state. During these travels, Mr. Owen has opened the subject, with favorable results, to some of the leading statesmen in England, and with a view to intro- duce it tathe governments of the civilized world and to the public generally, he wrote petitions, ad- dressed to the British Parliament; and just before he left England—the one to the House of Peers was presented, with a long, favorable preparato- Navat.—U.

Charles Quinn, apparently about I7iyears of age, who | ‘was convicted on Thursday last, of having stolen a bun- dle of clothing, alleged to be worth $40, on board the —_ ship Queen of the West, was next placed at the i for sentence. R.
