Important Law Decument, We shall endeavor to publish in to-morrow’s Herald the report of the Commissioners on Prac- tice and Pleadings, which was made yesterday to the Legislature. It is very long, but it will be of considerable importance to the legal pro- fession. Arrival from Vera Cruz. The steamship Massachusetts, Captain Wood, arrived at this port yesterday from Vera Cruz, 10 nineteen days passage. She brings four days later advices from that port. The following are ber passengers:—Dr. Battee, U.S. Army; Lieutenants Clements and Walser, | of the Baltimore Battalion U. 8. Army; Mr. D. *P. MeCorkle, U. S. Navy. The M. has come here to have engines repaired. There is no ad her boilers and ditional news from the army yet, She brings the report, current here for a day or two, that Col Burnett, of the New York | Regiment, is dead. This we are still disposed to doubt, because there are said to be letters in this city or in Albany, which state that he was shot through the calt of the leg, and was doing well. $ ‘The steamer Ann McKim was at Vera Cruz, on the Sth, with steam up, waiting for the de- spatches of Gen. Scott. Interesting Intelligence from Central and South America. Our files of the Comercio del Plata of Monte- video, the British Packet of Buenos Ayres, the Diario dela Marina of Havana, &¢. &c., received by the recent arrivals here, have placed us in pos- asion of a good deal of very interesting infor- 1 relative to Central and South America. The notes of Mr. Harris, the United States Charge d’Affuires, to Lord Howden and Count Walewski, on the subject of their negotiations, and announcing to them the determination of his government never to sanction the establish- ment of any governments or colonies, as political communities, in any of the provinces of the Plate by any European government, is commented on somewhat feely by the Comercio del Plata. In his notes, Mr. Harris stated that the M mtevide- | an government seemed in an ‘tanomalous” state This seems to annoy the editor, who says that Mr. H. may think it “anomalous,” but that it is none of his affair, his only business being to pro- tect the commerce of his country. The editor also affects to ridicule Mr. H.’s fears of Europe- an interference. We may add that this paper is very violent in its denunciations of Rosas. The royal geographical society of Berlin has lately transmitted to the President of the repub- lie of/ Paraguay a diploma as an honorary mem- ber of that society. The Legislature of Chili was opened on the Ist June last, and the message of the President, Ma- nuel Bulnes, delivered on the occasion, gives a a good picture of the progress that repuLlic is making, in obtaining a position among its com- peers. The message of Senor Bulnes, is a serious do- cument, worthy of attention, from whichever poiiit it may be viewed. Free from all that frothy declamation which is so usual in these documents in new republics, its style is succinct andclear—it does not contain one unnecessary phrase. He says that Chili is at peace with all the world, and is moreover tree from any civil war. | The negotiations with the United States for some definite arrangement of all pending claims was progressing, and he trusted from the well known character for justice possessed by the American government, that all would be arranged equita- bly and satisfactorily. He deplores the existence of the present war between this country and | Mexico. He speaks of the absolute necessity of | bridges to their rivers, and in order that they might have the best models, he had sent to the United States for models of wooden ones, which can be placed in any part of the country, and also forengineers and artisans to superintend their erection. In speaking of these orders from the United States, President Bulnes says :— tion | guage, religion aud customs, allowed the re e who had emigrated. Op the 6th August, the American ship Catib was placed in Circumstances of considerable danger in the harber of Montevideo, and was rescued from her perilous position by the aid of boats sent from a Brazilian man of war that was in the vicinity. This assistance, which at all times would have been prat eworthy, is more especially so at the present time, when some little coolness exists between the Brazilian government and our own. The United States } Consul ut Montevideo, R. M. Hamilton} Esq., wrote a note of thanks to the Brazilian Com- mandant. Besides all this, we are in receipt of news | from Quito to the 28th of May. ‘There was a rumor in that city that a project was on foot to annex the Ecuador to Peru, and it was supposed that this subject would be brought before the assembly of American (South) representatives, who were about to as- semble at Lima, aud to which New Granada, Ecuador, Peru, Chili, Bolivia and Buenos Ayres had already nominated members who were on their way there, and it was thought that Para- guay and Brazii would also send their represen- tativer. Before this assembly, also the ques- tions’pending between Peru and Bolivia, were to be submitted. Venezuela is the only republic which holds itself aloof from this Congress, so that her repre- sentative and that of Uruguay or Montevideo, will be the only ones wanting from among all the governments existing in South America. In addition to ,the above, we find the follow ing articles relative to!General Mosquere, of New Granada, in one of our Havana papers :— [From the Diario dela Marina, Sept. 4.] The peace, pt ‘and happiness of @ nation depend intimately and constantly on the correct and good prin- ciples possessed by those persons who are in possession of the executive authority No matter what adminis- trative principle predominates; because, if personal in- fluences, (whether acquired in this way or that), which are necesary accidents growing out of the social orgeni- antion itself, do not absolutely decide the greatest of human probiems,they can at least hasten or retard them. ‘The best opportunity which is now afforded for the study of this truth in all its phases, and for the follow- ing of it out without losing its track, is in the new nations of South America, which rose up as but yester- day, under our own eyes, who struggle on unceasingly amidst good and bad influences, and are more or less uquil and advanced according as they are ambitious ‘egotistical or patriotic and noble. . Amidst all these nations, Venezuela, New Granada and Chili offer at interesting spectacle, cultivating carefal'y, and with happy results, under the peaceful and regenerating shadow of peace and order, the material inte. rests, both moral and intellectual. It seems that these two latter interests are spread only to # cer- tain point on the continent—as Mexico, Central Ameri- ca, the Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Montevideo, and Buenos Ayres, overrun with intestinal discord, by internal and external warfare, tire? of thus wrestling, always seem ready eyery instarc to become prostrate and defenceless, to be dissolved aniextinguisbed. And where is to be found the clue to the explanation of this difference in theldestinies of nations, which, with some slight variations, all possess the same natural elements: a population of a like origin and heterogeneous chi r, the same lan- the ‘same system of government? It is in the men who have had the guid- ance of the events of these governments, Venezuela has had a Paez, New Grenada a Mosquera, Chili a Bulnes; these three generals represent and incarnate the tran- quility of the three nations, which are marching onward to a condition which may be great and influential. Paez has just saved Venezuela fromthe horrors of anarchy, which the egotist Guzman would have entailed onit. Mosquera saved New Granada in 1942, from the vandal like principles proclaimed by Obando, ‘the assas- sin of Sucre, Bulnes, accepting his re-election to the Presidency, has saved’ the beautiful country of Chili, from the horrors of civil war, in which it was about to be plunged by the ambitious partizans of the admiral. ‘These three men belong not only to the history of war, but also to that of civilization ; their services have been more useful and fruitful in the peaceful times of creation, organization and preservation, when they have had to teach and persuade people of almost irretrievably loose habits, inasmuch as they were uneducated, and in the darkest and most entangled paths, where they could not progress without danger, save by the aid of the light of illustration and morality; and moreover they have had to argue with these same people, led into error as they were by faithless and heartless tribunals, the most holy truths, the clearest axioms, the most incontroverti- ble principles. ‘These three men deserve much from their own countries, and the sympathies of all honorable men in the world. Coming now to the second (New Granada) to which this slight sketch is devoted, we mus: say that in our opinion it is the most favored, whether we look at the personal qualities or the relative situation of the coun- tries among which it was born. Venezuela, at the vanguard of the South American continent, a the very ports, we may say, of Europe, with which it entered into intimate commerce ever since trade in ite ports was i ree, incessantly visited by curious or speculating travellers, with a population the mass of which is intelligent and gifted with much self-respect. has assimilated, itself more quickly than its neighbors, although still imperfectly, to that ‘civilization which is approaching it in the westward march of empire. Chili has effected a like assimilation, both from the softness and fabulous beauty of its climate and the flat nature of its territory, as well as from its immediate vi- cinity to the straits of Magellan, a vicinity which brings “In that country this branch of work has received | the greatest improvements, all of which combine both solidity and economy.” He had also made contracts for the speedy transportation of the mails, and recommended the subject of common schools to the especial consideration of the government. A military and likewise a nautical school, both of which have been established for some time in Chili, were succeeding admirably. He speaks of the state of the public revenue, which is increasing every year. He then goes on to say that a Na- tional Bank would be quite beneficial for the furthering of their various manufactures and the introduction ot capital, and that if the line of steamboats between Europe, Rio Janeiro and Mgntevideo should extend as far as Valparaiso through the Straits of Magellan, (as is thought of in Europe,) nothing would be more apropos than such a bank. The Comercio del Plata makes a great many comparisons between the condition of the Plata republics and that of Chili, and concludes a long | article by saying :— “ Ah! if the people of the Rio de La Plata would only study and ponder on the happy situation of Chili and e causes which produced it |’ Chili, Venezuela and New Granada may in- deed be looked on as the models which the | other South American governments ought to fol- | low. The exclusive privilege to construct a railroad | between Valparaiso and Santiago, the capital of Chili, had been granted to Mr. William Wheei- | wright, a gentleman well known in the Pacific. | from his connection with the Steam Navigation Company there. He has been many years in | business in the republics of Peru and Chili, but } comes originally from Newburyport, Massachu- setts. This privilege he is to retain exclusively for thirty years. Mr. Wheelwright had also received the exclu- sive privilege for twelve years, of constructing a railroad between Callao and Lima. ‘The republics of Peru and Bolivia were not on very friendly terms by the last accounts. All | commercial relations between them were sun- | dered, and according to all accounts it would not | be long before some more definite marks of ill- feeling would take place. Indeed, there was a rumor in Lima, on the 10th May, that the Boli- | vian troops were about to enter the Peruvian territory. Meanwhile Bolivia was tranquil, as far as her internal arrangements were concerned; and, notwithstanding the threatened war, was advancing all the useful improvements of her in- ternal government. In letters received from Lima, the government of General Castilla is represented as surrounded with domestic conspiracies, and it was said that that chief could not depend on either the army or the people General Jose Felix Iguain, guilty before the Tribunates or dinarios of Lima, “of having projected the separation from the Republic of the Southern Departments,” was sen- tenced on the 10th May, to six years exile from the Republic, with the express prohibition against his settling in any republic wh sett! ¢ whose limits te ed it with Peru. eee The Mercurio of Valparaiso Notices a militar revolution which occurred in the capital of the Argentine Province of Mendoza, which led to the deposal of the Gevernor, Don Pedro Pascual who was found it in contact with the old world of the south, like Vene- zuela’s position does with the north,and which makes its ports pointe of deposite for merchandize for Bolivia and Peru, New Granada, encompassed on all sides by immense cordilleras, with only three Atlantic ports, Kio Hacha, Santa Marta, and Carthagenu, and a very narrow extent of const separated from the productive parts by chains of elevated mountains, of diffieult access either by water or land, with two-thirds of its population, consisting of Indians indigenous to the country, an apathetic race of the most Itmited capacities. New Granada has thus in its isolation from the civilized world, had to:createa special cwvilization, which has taken up many years for ita elaboration ; and if this is, as we believe it is, a posi- tive guaranty of progress, it is indubitable that on the other hand it has been an obstacle to the rapid advance of the country. and the consolidation of the institutions Mosquera has had to contend with much greater ob stacles than those overcome by Paes and Bulnes, as these latter were assisted by the powerful help which the enlightening of a nation, though ever #0 super- ficially, always affords, whilst Mosquera had not only to go on without such aid, but also to combat enemies of Such powerful culibre as the astute Santander, and the sanguinary Obando, who, taking advantage of the inno- cence and credulity of the natives, were leading thea | quickly into confusion and chaos. General Mosquera is descended from an illustrious | family that originated ia the metropolis, and are so | well supplied with the gift of fortune that’ the term as “rich as # Mosquera”? has become proverbial. Of «clear and well-cultivated intellect, gifted with admirable ac- tivity, a lover of progress, with # fund of antique (to use the ternf which the French apply to great qualities, so rare at this period of the world) honor and patriotism. | He is at preeent the ruler in New Granada, after having been im her service since his earliest youth. His ap- pearance is pleasing, though he is not of a very tall stature, and his age 18 between 45 and 50. From a very early age, Mosquera distinguished himeelf both in council and in’ battle for his intelligence and valor, causing his great qualities to be appreciated. During all the convulsive movements which preceded the dissolution of the gigantic Colombia, he was always on the side of true reason and foresight; and when New Granada was constituted in 1830, he took sides with the party opposed to Santander, the rickety rival of Bolivar. His party triumphed, and elevated to the presidency the virtuous Dr. Ividoro Marquez.and Santander, seeing that he was vanquished in a legal way, set on foot a re- yolution which burst forth at the very moment that he himself drew his last breath, and went to account to the Almighty tor his conduct. GObando placed himselfat the head of the movement, and the noble generals Horran and Mosquera went forth valiantly to combat him. The civil war quickly extended throughout the Granadian tarritory which'will feel for many years the numerous ills it suffered, which, in their destructive career, blasted many happy hopes and expectations. In the midst of the din ot arms, and an impoverished treasury, and the effervescence of contending passions, the pacific Dr. Marques concluded his presidential term, General Herran being substituted for him. General Mos: quera by himself remained at the head of the govern-, ment forées, and he had the glory of putting an end to this fratricidal warfare, by completely routing Obando and causing him to flee to the Eouadorian territory During this pariod Gen. Mosquera gave proofs net only of his military talents, of his well known courage, extreme disinterestedness, but also of heroic firmness.’ Among many other aneodotes, we have heard one which may be placed by the side of the one which gave the noble Don Guzman the title of the * Good.” His eldest son had been taken prisoner by Obando, and he wished to force Mosquera to make some very preposterous conditions for the sake of getting him back, at the same time threat- ening to kill the prisoner, should he (Mosquera) advance astep. The reply of Mosquera to this proposition was his rapid advance by forced inarches, surprising and rout- moment they Were about to assassinate him. In 1845,Gsneral Mosquera was elected President, as a ressive unrolling of the resources of New Granada, as been apparent, as he was enabled to give the pow- erfal impulse of his activity to the administrative ma- chinery. With thegreatest good faith he called out all the aid which the capacities of the country allowed, he surrounded himself with honorable men—he judiciously selected a number of useful foreigners, and thus protect- ed in these elements, and strong in his intelligence and patriotism, he commenced the diffloult and repelling work of retorm, and which he has kept up with @ perse- nce, which does not belong to this age or climate, and which has revealed the immense resources of t! Granadian nation, resources which, before this, were hid- den, and even unknown and disbelieved, Hear what was told in December, 1846, by an illustri- ous Granadian, who had been absent from his country nearly thirty Fined “Mosquera is a man who is more active and ambitious {administrative glory than any | have known. He has regenerated all our systems of general administration; ho is at the head of a great number of enterprises of the Segura.

The worthy er of Senor Mosquers, the Minister Plenipotentiary near the Court of St. James, at this date must be in Madrid, endeavoring to obtain from the gov- ernment of her Majesty the Queen the ratification of a treaty of recognition, dship, and commerce. All these facts, although thus mentioned collectively, without entering into detail, for want of sufficient time and data, suffice to give some idea of the person whom we are writing of ; and pec ne to prophesy, that when he concludes bis term of office, he will have changed the face of his country to s most favorable, moral, social, and industrial aspect. The Equlnoctial Storm and its Effects. We had a few blowsand rain storms last week, which, it appears, were but the fore-runners of the great equinoctial. The pleasant days just passed were but a delusion; for many were led to hope that the old fashioned storms peculiar to this season, and which were generally of a destruc- tive character, had neglected to pay us their an- nual visit. In the afternoon of Friday, rain commenced falling gradually, with the wind changing and varying from all quarters of the compass, and continued in this manner during the night. Yes- terday, (Saturday,) morning, the wind hauled to the north-east, from which quarter it blew a per- fect gale,accompanied by sudden gushes and tor- rents of rain. As late as 12 o’clock last night, the storm was raging without the slightest indi- cations of an abatement. The streets through- out the city were flooded, and it is presumed that the cellars in the lower part of the city have suf- fered great damage. Many stores located in ex- posed streets were compelled to close, owing to the intensity of the wind, and apparently but little was doing in any branch of business. The streets were nearly deserted, none venturing out but those who were necessitated by urgent busi- ness. ‘The air, during the day, was cold, dreary and exceedingly uncomfortable—fires and over coats were in genera requisition. Apprehensions are entertained for the safety of vessels on the coast ; but, as yt, we have heard of nothing beyond a few slight accidents in the bay. A few days,we hope, will bring the report of the safe arrival of those vessels, which may have been so near as to preclude a chance of weathering the coast or to stand to sea. _ The brig Linden, lying at anchor near quaran- tine, dragged her anchors during the blow yes- terday, and was driven foul of the public dock, fortunately without damage. The bark Panchita was blown at the same time from her moorings, and cam contact with the same dock, but re- ceived little damage. We have heard of no other accident among the shipping worthy of note. Many of the steam- boats leaving for the Sound and other places were obliged to defer their departure. The Bay State was the only one running in an easterly diec-. tion able to leave. It is said that a number of unfinished buildings in Broadway, and other | of the city, suffered by the violence of the wind. In the vicinity of Second avenue, Tompkins’ park and other streets up town, the trees afd shrubbery attached to the private dwellings were torn up and scattered in all directions. In Brooklyn, we are told, the young trees planted as ornaments in the vicinity of the new City Hall, and those of the more unprotected streets of South Brooklyn, were entirely de- stroyed. The streets throughout the city were covered with trees lying about in confusion, having been torn roots'up and all by the winds. The steamer Traveller, which lett at 6 o’clock | yesterday morning for New Haven, suc- ceeded in reaching Sand’s Point, when she was | compelled by the severity of the storm to put back to this city. The steamer South*rner, which was to leave for Charleston at 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon, | has postponed her departure till 9 o’clock to- morrow morning. “Timy arE Passine Away.”’—It is our pain- ful duty to record the death of Major William Popham, whose services in the war of indepen- dence are gratefully acknowledged by the whole nation. In addition to being the oldest commis- sioned officer of the United States, he held at the time of hig death an office which the immor- tal Washington filled, viz: the Presidency of the Society of the Cincinnati. He died yesterday: morning at the advanced age of ninety-five years, and his funeral will take place this afternoon trom his late residence, No. 122 Waverly Place, at half-past five o’clock, and will be followed to his last resting place by the members of the so- ciety of which: he was president at the time of his death, and a large concourse of sorrowing friends. Tue Sreamsuiy Barrrannia.—The mechanics engaged in replacing the keel, forefoot, and re- pairing other slight injuries, were at work during the whole of Friday night and through all the storm yesterday. There is more work upon her than was at first expected, but the utmost despatch is being used to have her ready to leave for Bos- ton on Wednesday. The repairs will certainly not be completed before that day, although a large number of men are employed day and night. Notwithstanding their great efforts, the prospect of her sailing from Boston on Friday, the Ist | prox., under the circumstances, are rather poor. One of the crew of the Britannia fell from a lad- der on the outside of the vessel, to the deck, and was killed, News rrom Trinipap pe Cuna.—By the brig | Mazeppa, Capt. Colson, we have received the | Correo of Trinidad to the 19th ult. They were suffering much from drought in that vicinity ; and on many plantations, whole crops of corn were lost There was much scarcity of provisions also, and the papers state that some of the parts of the Island were suffering much from this cireum- stance. Fematr Sarnor Boy.—-The schooner St. Mary’s, Capt. Black, of Baltimore, with coal, which went ashore on the Tortugas Reef, a short time ago, had a cabin boy of remarkable good looks and smartness, but as the vessel appeared to be in danger, fear overpowered every other consideration, and he blushingly confessed her- self no boy, but a veritable woman in breeche, ‘The captain was more than ever alarmed at this novel peril, and it is said has exhibited great re- morse ever since, for sundry thumps and growls | bestowed upon her, the common heritage of | cabin boys. Atpresent she is with a family in | this place, and Joanna is a very modest, an ~ ally aclever girl. This whim of donning attire not belonging to her, is deemed a high offence by some of the ladies of the Key, whilst others equally commend it asa gallant feat, betokening quite an early disposition to wear the breeches. he gffair hi jumed a serious aspect, and it | 18 believed that the breeches have the majority, | comm Park Tneatne.—Mra. Mowatt appeared again at the comedy of “ 1 Ado ‘about Nothing.” | igreh was well ie a4 great eredit to all who took part in it. Mrs. Mowatt e Beatrice, Mz. Davenport as Bepedick, Mr. Barry as Leonato, Mr. Dyott as Claudio, and Mrs. Abbott as Hero, were all excellent performances. Mr. Bass’s Dog- berry was, as everything whieh he attempts is, good. ‘There was but @ small audience, and no wonder; the weather was not such as to invite persons to leave home. At the close of the first piece, Mrs. Mowatt was called before the curtain, and received the applause of her friends, who threw flowers to her, and gave her, in fact, warm demonstration of approval. On Monday even- ing the new play of “Armand” is to be produced. Bowery Tuxatre.—Although we had @ very fair spe- cimen of an equinoctial storm yesterday, the Bowery ‘Theatre was tolerably well filled last eveaing by a nu- merous and respectable audience, who appreciated and applauded the performances. The “ Carpenter of Rouen’? was very well enacted, and Mrs. Phillips is de- serving of much credit for inducing the child in her arms to cry so lustily as it did; it added considerably to the amusements of the evening. We must announce to the friends of the Bowery that Mr. Jackson will treat them to an entertainment to-morrow evening, the equal of which they have not enjoyed fora long time. It is a grand patriotic drama, founded on the war with Mexico, entitled “ The Siege of Monterey.” We shall refer to it more at length to-morrow, and shall content ourselves at, present by saying that it will be the most splendid thing ever produced at this or any other theatre in the country. CuatHam THeaTe.—Notwithstanding the inclemen- oy of the weather, the Chatham Theatre was very well ottended last evening. We did not wonder at the large attendance, because the pieces periormed were decidedly excellent, and the personation of the characters equally as good. The nautical drama of “Tom Cringle’s Log,” which is one of the most interesting pieces we have seen for s long time, was admirably played; and it is no more than justice to Mr. Neafe, to say that he appeared to —. advantage as Zon Ceo. To-morrow evening din Amerlen,and whlch be determined to bring out without regard to ex) entitled the “Li Man of the Ocean, or the Night Before the Bridal.” We le acaba atc g ), and report our opinion of it. Patmo’s Ovens Hovse.—In spite of the equinox, which raged last evening, this fashionable resort was very well attended, for the benefit of Tom Placide. The ballet of ‘< Gigelle”” was performed by the Ravel Family with great taste and accuracy, and Madame Leon Javelli danced with grace and a true genius; ‘and Mr. Wells sus- tained the part of the Duk ‘We need not men- tion * John Jones” nor the “ Italian Brigand.” ‘The en- tertainment for to-merrow evening will be on the tight- rope, Le Fete Champotre and Mr, Dechalumeau. Ravels. Tur Bowery AmruirHeatre Crncus.—The enter- tainments for the coming week at this establishment will be peculiarly interesting and brilliant, as Mr. Tryon has engaged both Signor Felix Carlo, the Italian trick clown, and those celebrated Acrobats, the Holland fam- ily, and they will make their first appearance to-morrow evening, ina variety of amusing entertainments. In addition to this, the usual choice selection of equestrian and gymnastic feats will be presented. This is an excel- lent Flace for family parties by whioh it is much patron. ised. Sacnep Concert at Caste Ganven.—The last Sun- day concert of the season, at this place, will be given this evening, and it well deserves patronage, both on ac- count of its intrinsic merit as well asin compliment to the energy evinced by Messrs. French and Heiser, this summer, in presenting a delightful place of amusement toourcitizens. The musio will be played by Dodworth’s cornet band, and will consist of choice selections from Rossini, Hayden, &e. It commences at 8 P. M., and the Press for admission is quite moderate, only one shil- B. Mavame Bisnor’s Concent.—Our readers are all pro- bably aware that this great concert, in which Madame B, will be supported by the great harpist, Bochss, and Mr. W. F. Brough, will take place on Thursday evening next, at the Tabernacle, ‘@ shall recur te this con- cert again before that day. Sicnor Burrz.—We are glad to say this entertaining and wonderful performer will continue his performances throughout the coming week at the Society Library. ‘The great patronage he has met with during his present visit to us, is a guarantee that he will be well supported Exercises by Mr. Marcetti is is the last week of the by the public during the rest of his stay here Dr. Collyer’s exhibition of “Living Statuary” will be continued for another week. ‘The peculiarly graceful and pleasing nature of this entertainment, is well calcu- luted te attract the attention which it is doing The idea is quite new in this country, though not so in Eu- rope, where it has always commanded the admiration of all those who have any idea of the beautiful. Ciocea and Morra have been induced to sus engagement at the Howard Atheneum for opera, They will shortly appear.

City intelligence. Tare Gunn Stave. —We perceive b which has recently taken det ellogg, correspondence mm Dr. Hawkes of and Mr. the trustee of Mr. Pow- ors, that the proceeds of the exhibition of the Greek Slave, on Wednesday, the 29th of September, will be presented tothe Howard Humane Association of New Orleans, for the relief of those who have suffered by the epidemic which has fallen so severely upon that city. If ‘would permit, we would give the correspo length, but as our citizens only wish to be prised of any benevolent movement to give it their aid and support, the announcement of this, we trust, will meet with the response the object so justly deserves It is supposed that holders of season tickets will waive the privilege they enjoy, on this occasion, that the receipts may be made as large as possible. Tue Fine Anve.—The celebrated painting of Titian’s Venus, will open for exhibition at Philadelphia on Monday. Cuamnen or Commence.—Moses H.

The testimony in this cause ts the same as published on the trial of ‘Bartlett, who was convicted and sentenced to five years imprisonment in the State Prison. A. i. Russe.t, Eeq , counsel fur the defence, contend- ed that as the offence was committed in Buffalo, this Court had no jurisdiction in the case, and theretore the indictment was illegal The District Arrorney, on het tlon, asserted the legality of the bi therities to sustain his position ‘The Court overruled the objections of Mr. Russell and the cause proceeded.
