Privat Adations of Taylor Teend-you information, you may Feflect to the public if you think proper tq do 40, What I shall state you may rely upon. General Taylor wrote to Mr. Clay the 30th of April last, a long familiar letter, covering four manuscript pages, in which he assured Mr. Clay of his friendship for him, and thift, situated ashe « was, he could not of himself, without appearing inconsistent, withdraw his name from the canvass; but it his friends at the ‘Philadelphia Convention should find that some other man—either Mr. Clay, Judge McLean, Mr. Clayton, or any good, capable and upright citizen—would be more likely to be elected than himself, then it would give him pleasure to haye them withdraw his name, and he would give his hearty support to the nominee. The letter breathes the true whig spirit, and shows that General Taylor deems Mr, Clay friends to be his own friends, and most effectually puts down the statement that General Taylor has set up for himself, and resolved to be a candidate whether or no. Mr. Clay wrote back a letter in the same good spirit, assuring the old hero that he, entertained none but the kindest feelings for him—that he approved of his political sentiments, and that, should his name be presented to the people, by the Philadelphia Convention, tor the Presid e would give to it his cordial support. ‘Thus stand Clay aud Taylor towards each other. They are friends. Taylor will be nominated by the convention. It may be that he is by this hour (two o'clock, P. M.,) nominated. We shall see who first give up Clay. We shall shall see if they are not some of those who have been very furious for him of late, and equally furious against Taylor. _Clay, you know, retains an old grudye against Scott, for his course in 1840, and Taylor cannot soon forgive Scott for joining Polk and Marey in taking his regulars from him, and leaving him to be run over and cut to pieces by Santa Anna’s serried host ; Are Taylor's friends going for Scott against Clay? Are Clay’s friends going for Scott against Taylor? Not a bit of it. Dion. Puitapetrma, June 8, 1848. The Steamship Columbus. The steamship Columbus sailed for Charleston | at 20’clock this afternoon. The Military Court of Inquiry. Faxveniex, (Mo ) June 6, 1848. EVIDENCE OF GEN. QUITMAN CONTINUED. Scott directed Gen. Worth, who stated that he had se- cured some sealing ladders, which he had found about the neighborhood of his quarters, to distribute them equally between Gen. Pillow’s command and my own. He then proceeded to converse fully upon the plan of attack. After a good many remarks and suggestions connected with the details of the expected movement of the two columns, during which Gen. Pillow made some remarks in regard to the movement of his own column, and one in regurd, to mine, the conclusion of Gen. Scott's instructions to us, to the best of my re- collection was, that Gen. Pillow should advance to the attack from his position on the west of Chapultepec to the assault ofthe fortress, while my division, for the support of which Smith’s brigade had been ordered to report to me, was ordered to advance simultaneously to the assault of the fortress by the Tacubaya road, Gen. Scott instructing both Gen. Pillow and myself to move from our positions to the assault, as a signal. which he informed us would be the cessation of the fi- ring of the heavy batteries, and particularly directed us to make the attack, as near as possible.simultancous- ly. A part of his plan and instructions was, that the batteries under the direction of Gen. Pillow and my- self should commence at as early an hour as possible, an active cannonade upon the fortress, when the firing of the batteries would be stopped by his orders, as a signalto advance to the assault, giving us permission, afterwards, to recommence the firing of the batteries, should we deem it necessary to cover the advance ot the columns. I regard the general plan of the attack upon the fortress of Chapultepec, as it was subsequent- ly executed, definitely settled by Gen. Scott in that conference. | will not say whether or not his conclu- sions were not modified by the remarks of other officers, made at that conference. 1 will add, as @ part of the instructions given to me. at that conference, that Gen. Scott instructed me to prevent. if re-inforce- ments being thrown into the castle, that night, from the city. Q faa not, if the witness changed to know at the time, the scalling ladders, pick-axes, &c., been earlier ordered by the said Scott, as well as the estab- lishment of the heavy batteries for the prelimi- nary cannonade of the Castle of Chapultepec, and when the distribution of the scaling ladders between the two assaulting columns was spoken of by the said Scott, did not the witm then learn that Brevet Major Gen. Worth had b: earlier in- structed by the said Scott, to collect them from the village of Tacubaya and neighborhood ? A—I am aware that the heavy batteries used at the bombardment of the Castle, which opened their fire on the morning of the twelfth, had been constructed by orders emanating from Gen. Scott. and as! heard from him, at the conference at the village of Piedad, before referred to, with a view to the reduction of the Castle of Chapultepec. I recollect that, either on the 11th or 12th, Gen. Scott directed me to see to supplying my division with scaling ladders, pickaxcs, and crowbars ; or else, upon my request, he stated that he would see that they were furnished—I don’t remem- ber which. At the conference on the night of the 12th, linformed Gen. Scott that I had taken measures to supply my command in part with those necessary arti- cles. Finding that Gen. Worth had the control of some of the scaling ladders, which had been reported to me by pry division quarter-master. | requested ofders from Gen. Scott that a portion of those under the con- trol of Gen. Worth, should be furnished to my com- mand. I know not whether the sealing ladders secured by Gen. Worth were so secured by orders from head quarters or not. Q.—Was there, at the second conference spoken of (that of Tacubaya), anything said, by the said Scott, to the effect that the columns of the said Pillow and Quitman were first to march round, from different di- rections, the mound of Chapultepec. meet somewhere at the basin on the side of the Mexican cap’ where the two advances were to shake hands, and make the mound feel its isolation ’ A.—I do not recollect that to have been stated in sub- stance. In the course of the conversation, the remark of “ shaking bands” was used, | think, by General Scott ~lam uot certain. The remark | recollect from some quazter. Perhaps it may have been used by myself, in the expectation of meeting General Pillow in the for- tress. To explain myself more fully, it is necessary that I should state that I recollect no proposition coming from General Scott, to assail the hills of Cha- pultepec w surrounding it prior to an assault upon the fortress recollect that in the course of the conver- vation which preceded the final instructions of Gene- Scott, he desired or instructed ( il 7 tend a pertion of his command to his left, and sweep the batteries represented to be on the north side of the hill, to which Genera! Pillow made objections, to whieh I paid no particular attention; but they left upon my amind the impression that General Pillow desired to make, with his consolidated force, the direct attack up- on the castle, to which, | think, General Scott assent- ed, stating that the small battery alluded to might be taken by General Worth’s supporting column. | will remark that considerable conversation took p! be- tween General Scott and General Pillow upon this sub- ject, to which, as the movement of my column was not soncerned, | did not pay particular attention. Q.—Was there anything said in that second confe- rence, by the said Scott er the witness, about shaking hands between the witness and Major General Pillow in reference to any place for them on meeting within the castle of Chapultepec, after carrying that work by the joint assault ? ‘A.—-I cannot say that there was any expression used as to shaking of hands, other than at the meeting of the two columns, nor can I recollect that any place was designated, except in my remark, which was in the fortress. y present impression is that this remark of imine, originated from some remak previously mad about shaking bands. | will add that with the exeep- tion of the recollection of that expression, | have an in- distinet recollection of the conversation that led to it | will add that the movement of surrounding the hill way have been alluded to in the conversation, but cer- tainly such a movement was never understood by me to be seriously contemplated at any t Q.—Besides taking the batteries outside of Chapul- in the line of witnesse’s approach upon the castie or the main work of the enemy, what portion of witness's division entered the castle of Chapultepec ly participated in ite capture ? ments of General Shields’ brigade, the South Carolina and New York Volunteers, and the Sezond Pennsylvania nt, under my directions, crossed the low ground in front of the batteries al- luded to in the question, and directly participated in the attack and assault which resulted in the capture of Chapultepec. Does the witness chance to know what were neral Pillo’ i pecting the Tacubaya before the appointment of the three com- missioners, on the part of the American army, to ne- gotiate that armistice,’ and if the witness knows any- thing about said Pillow’s views at the time referred to. please state them A —I! think | had no conversation with General Pil- low prior to the mveting, and have no recollection of aoe his views before the meeting of the commis- sioners. As the principal of the American commission- 0 negotiated the Tacubaya armistice, has the witness the instructions to the American commirsion- ers, from the said Scott, about him; and, if so, will he please produce these instructions? A—J have the original instructions, which | have Tetained fines the armistice n) Q.- St the instance of Major Gen. Pillow did or not the witness have one or more interviews with the said Pillow at the quarters of the latter in the eapital of dexico, some time in the m f October la the Leonidas letter had din that cap’ subject of the then official mix- | nderstanding between the said Pillow and the said Scott? and if so will the witness please state what the | said Pillow said in the said interview or interviews, of ‘his connection with the authorship of that letter, and | the said Pillow's ability or want of ability to discon- nect himself from the authorship of the said Leonidas letter ? A.—Having had some confidential and private con- versation with Gon. Pillow about the,time allu (The paper was handed rewnte womsartesg ft was on bis own seaouut be he Counr sald that it could see no objection to the witness proceeding to answer the question. The witness proceeded. it ‘the time glluded to, whether before or after the appearance of the Leonidas letter, I do not recollect, Gen. Pillow being then con- fined to his room, sent to me two Logg =| uest- ing me to call and see him, Upon my visit, after a short conversation upon the subject of the decision of the Court of Inquiry, which, at this instance, had been held in Mexico in relation to howitzers, in which he expressed great anxiety to know what was the decision of the Court, and whether, in my judgment, it would affect his character, he proceeded to speak of his dit- ficulties existing between him and the General-in- Chief; 1 do not think he said anything especially about the Leonidas letter; have no recollection of his speaki he stated that his great desire was to u ; he request- ed my intervention in order to stop any ings ‘nst him; he said he would be seriously injured, if not ruined, by a contest with General Scott upon those subjects; he expressed a great desire that the prosecution of this matter by General Scott should be stopped; asked me if! knew whether Gen. Scoit intended to prosecute him in relation to these rumors inthe army. He alluded in his conversation to the high military position and reputation of Gen. Scott, and that he, Gen. Pillow, would be greatly injured by any contest with him. He concluded with requesting very carnestly my intervention with Gen. scott to bring about a reconciliation, or to ascertain the inten- tions of Gen. Scott, and endeavor to prevent any fur- ther prosecution of the matter. I very reluctantly promised, as I did not like to approach Gen. Scott upon the subject, and, in consequence of particular reasons, never did. I do not think Gen. Pillow alluded express- ly to the Leonidas letter. Gen. Pillow appeared to make the application to me with reluctance, perhaps occasioned by my intimating at once that my personal relations with Gen, Scott were not intimate, and would scarcely justify a conversation on my part with him, Whether he supposed an interposition on my part would be effectual, and he intimating that he thought matters had gone too far, 1 did not venture to approach Gen, Scott on the subject. A—I left the city of Mexico on the 12th day of No- vember. [ think the interview occurred within three or four days preeeding my departure. I recollect now that I had been informed of the appearance of the Le- onidas letter in the army, but I think I had not seen & copy of it, Q.—At what time did the witness leave the city of Mexico for the United States, and about how many days did the interview of the witness with Major Gen. Pillow occur hefore the witness left that country? General Scorr submitted a question, asking General Quitman’s inference of the conversation held with General Pillow. General Piiiow considered that the question was ille- gal, He would not, however, object to it. x General Scorr had no wish to submit any question that was either illegal unfair, or ungent would modify it. He then submitted the following : Q.—The witness has raid that Major General Pillow in the iuterview in question spoke, of, or alluded to, certain rumors in the army,on the faid Pillow’s sub- ject. Did the witness understand from the words or the manner of the said Pillow, and the other circum- stances, that the said Pillow included any rumor con- necting him with the authorship of the Leonidas let- ter? General Prtow said that the question still retained the same objectionable character. Hehowever, would waive his objections, as he stated before. General Scott stated that he would not avail himself of that plea. Words and sentences and motions wero given to mankind by his Creator, and no law could control them. ‘The court interfered, and observed that oral commu- nications were in violation of the rules of the court. If General Pillow had any objection to the question, he must submit it in writing. The question was objected to by General Pillow, as follows : General Piiow objects to the manner in which this question is prepared and shaped. First, it is leading, und is therefore inadmissible. Second, it does not call for what was said by General Pillow, (which has alrea- dy been detailed by witness) but asks witness to put a construction upon the language of General Pillow, and to tell the court what the witness understood by that language, as the allusion of General Pillow. It is the province of the witness to state what was said. and that of the court to determine the meaning of that language. While the defence has every confidence, oth in the intelligence and correct intentions of the witness, and was not disposed to be captious and techni: cul in his objections to proof, and was willing to wia and did waive, before this court, objection to this very question; yet since the prosecutor, by his remarks, concedes nothing to the motive prompting this course, indulges in insinuations, and evinces feelings but lit- te befitting hisposition as commander-in-chiet of the American army, the defence has determined to require the prosecutor to adhere to the rules of law, aud to shape his questions accordingly. They do not stifle full and legal investigation. that will lead to the full and fair developement of truth. Respectfully, G, J. PILLOW, Major General U. S. Army. Grxenat Scort presented the following reply :— © Mr. President and G: en of the Court:—I have, under the ra'e of the Court, but add to what Ihave orally said, in support of the question last propounded to the wituess, and ‘can haraly suppose that that little is needed. Whatever impressions a witaess may derive fram a party before a court, either by word, signs or gestures, interpreted by citewm- stances known to both, tay be given in evidence aginst the perty who so makes the communication or imprest'on, ‘The question now before the court secks for that kind of evidence, + The prosecutor has indulged in his oral re on tl no feeling, and much less any insinuations, He appeal Court, abd all who have heard those remarks, to” repel the gratuitous accusati Respectfully submitted, WINFIELD SCOTT. Ix Covrr, Juno 6, 1848.—The Court went into pri- vate session, and on opening, stated their decision that the question should not be put. The Court then adjourned until to-morrow, at 9, AM. latter Frepericx, Mp., June 7, 1848. The court met this morning at 9 o'clock. Present, all the member: ‘The minutes of yesterday were read. General Scorr asked permission to submit a rejoinder to the paper put in by General Pillow yesterday, with reference to Major Burns, The court acceded to the request. General Scorr said he would draw it up and present it to-morrow. Geueral Scott observed to the court. that in conse- quence of their decision yesterday, in not allowing bis question to be put to the witness, (Major General Quit- tnan,) he was tuken very much by surprise, and did not know that at present he would put any further ques- tions to General Quitman. If he required to recall him at a future period, he would, of course, be allowed to do 80. ‘The court assented. General Pittow put in the following paper :— «General Pillow begs leave to submit to the consideration of the court, tat every indication promises an early ratification of a treaty of peace with Mexico, aud as by law bis commission expires with the termination of the war, it is possible thas this perlod may arrive Lefure that of the termination of this investigation ; Le therefore earnestly requests that the court will devote ns muck time each and every day to the busiuess of the court as their phy- sival ability to endure labor will permit. ‘The court are no doubt fully impr.ssed with the importance to all parties concerned, and particularly to the defence, that the end of tis investigation should be reached as early as practicable, aud hence they cau dul ide of General Pillo on this subject. He labor of love, and that ithas been already tedious and irksomo ; yet he trusts they will consent to increase their daily labors, by ludding to the hours of their sessions, from the considerativns that are rospeetfully submitted.

Q.—Wiill witness please examine the original instruc- tions to the commissioners, in relation to the Tacubaya armistice, and say if there be any thing therein con- tained in relation to the surrender of Chapultepec? Gen, Scovr—Mr. President aud gentiemen of the court, there has been # great delicacy about giving opinions ; they have in some cases given great offence, and 1— Covxt—You must write your objection, sir. n.

[At this juncture the ory of « fire’ was heard, two-thirds of the speetators rushed out of the room, the orderly sergeant among thi noise was intolerable ; when it had slightly subsided, the court bawled out for the orderly to come back ; and after a time that official made his appearance, sneaking in behind the crowd. When order was restored— Gen. Pittow said the court would see the relative- ness of the question, since it related to the cross-ex- amination by the prosecution of Major General Worth on that subject.

Scort—I have no other objection to make. ae (to Gen. Pillow)—The court has considered Gen. Pitiow.—The question refers, the Court will see, to a conversation whici: has already ben partially stat ‘The answer was given as follows:— A.—That was the subject of the commencement of Gen. Pillow’s conversation with me at that interview. Q.—Did Gen. Pillow, in this conversation and in connection with this subject. say to witness that he had done all he could to avoid any difficulty with Gen, Scott upon the subject of the howitzers, but that Gen, Scott had unjustly reflected upon him, in the presence of a number of officers, about these guns—that ¢ (General Pillow) had laid before Gen. Scott the evi- deuce of his innocence, and that Gen. Scott still re- fused todo him justice, in consequence of which he was forced to demand the Court of Enquiry. a. Scorr—The correspond ia before the Court. Thave no objection, however, to urge. Gen, Pi..ow—I have a right to ask the exact con- versation which ensued. It does'nt relate to the correspondence, it relates to certain conversation Gen. Scorr.—The correspondence is on those iden- tical subjects, Mr. President! Axswer To THE Quxstiox—I don't recollect the precise language used by General Pillow upon that occasion. He stated in substance that he had endea- yored to remove from Gen. Scott's mind impressions injurious to him, upon the subject of the removal of the two howitzers; und that, notwithstanding these efforts, Gen. Scott had persisted in his imputations egainst him, and had thus compelled him to demand the Court of Inquiry. That is, to the best of my re- collection, the substance of his remarks on the subject matter of that question. Q.— Witness will state if, in this further conversation. Gen. Pillow traced Gen. Scott's hostility to him—said that he bad had u correspondence with Gen. Scott about his official reports, upon the 2d und 3d October; that he (Gen, Pillow) had made several alterations in his official reports against his convictions of the facts, to gratify Gen. Scott, and to avoid a rupture with him —that after he had mide those alterations in defe- rence to Gen, Scott's wishes, that Gen. Scott took of- fence, and said we could send the whole correspon- dence to the Secretary of War, and that he (General Pillow) was satisfied from this conduct ot Gen. Sectt, and his unjust reflections upon him about the howit- zers, that Gen. Scott's feelings were poisoned against him; that his confidence was xbused by those around him, and that he thought if Gen. Scott could be made properly to understand the facts, he could avoid an extreme rupture with him. ‘A.—I cannot answer the whole question affirmatively or negatively. 1 will therefore state in detail the sub- stance of the conversation, as far as my recollection serves, Gen. Pillow did speak of a ccrrespondence with Gen. Scott upon the subject of his official report or reports, and stated that he had made several altera- tions, to gratify Gen. Scott, and that notwithstanding those alterations, made from deference to Gen. Scott, he understood General Scott intended to communi- cate the whole correspondence to the Secretary of War; that he thought that my intervention with Gen Scott, and an explanation of his (Gen. Pillow’s) desire for a restoration of kind feelings between them, might prevail with Gen. Scott. This is, to the best of my re- collection, the substance of that portion of the conver- sation referred to in this question. But the conversa- tion also extended to other subjects. Q.—Witness has said the conversation above detailed occurred about the last of October; that he !eft the city of Mexico, on the Ist of November. Is he aware that general order No. 349, reflecting upon Gen. Pil- low, and virtually charging upon Gen. Pillow the au- thorship of the Leonidas letter. was not issued until the 12th November. twelve days after he left the city? A.—I am aware that the order referred te did not is sue until after my departure from the city of Mexico, Iam also aware that at the time of this conversation there was much conversation in the army, and many rumors, upon the subject of Gen. Pillow being connect- ed with letters that were written from Mexico upon the operations of the army. Q.—Witness isdesired, in view of all the facts to which his attention hasbeen called in the cross-exami- nation, toroflect a moment and say, if at the trial of this conversation there had been any other difficulties at that time between Gen. Pillow and Gen. Scott, and whether there was any talk about preferring charges against Gen. Pillow unttl after the order 349; and whether the difficulties already detailed were those which constituted the subjects of difficulty about which witness’s interposition for reconciliation was sought by Gen. Pillow? A.—The subject of Gen. Pillow's connection with a certain letter directed to some newspaper in the United States, was about that time much talked of among that portion of tho officers with whom I happend to meet, and I had before this interview learned from Gen. Smith and others, that it was the intention of Gen. Scott to take official notice of thix matter. I had never heard from Gen. Scotf, personally, any intention to prosecute this matter. I now recollect, since my attention is more particularly called to this subject, that Gen. Pillow, in this conversation, enquired of me what was the cha- racter of the rumors in the army. and particularly if | had seen a copy of the letter said to be interlined by him. | will state further, that it may not have been the intention of Gen. Pillow, in that conversation, to re- quest my intervention to prevent a prosecution in re- lation to these rumors. Being, however, regarded by me, at the time, as important, I considered the inter- ventionas decired in relation to all these difficulties between himself and Gen. Scott. Q.—The witness will state if the terms of the armis- tice, as agreed upon, met his own views, and why he signed them, and what Gen. Scott himself said upon the subject. Gen. Scorr—Premising , Mr. President, that nothing touching the merits of the action would be gone into. and not knowing but that it would be gone into, I am not prepared with evidence. I will be obliged to sum- mon witnesses from Mexico. Gen. Pittow—I think it due to the witness to ask the question. Count—There is no necessity for any argument on the merits of the question. It is objected to by the court. General Scort—General Smith is in Mexico. I be- lieve the witness did diter from the finding—from honest motives. of course. General Pearce is here— Covnt—There is no necessity for arguing the cae Have you any more questions to ask?—(To General Pillow.) General Pi.ow—No, sir. Count (to General Scott)—Have you? General Scort—Yes. sir, The course of the defence renders it necessary that many more questions should be put. Examination in chief resumed. Q.—The witness has given in evidence the substance of what Major General Pillow said to the witness in sation on the subject of a Court of Enquiry. exico, on the said Pillow, and at this instance, reepecting the alleged removal and appropriation of certain howitzers, and of Major General Scott's cen- sures of the said Pillow in respect to the howitzers. As the witness was a member of the Court of Inquiry he will please state, in general terms, whether the opinion of the Court wholly exonerated the said Gen. Pillow from blame, — eS War on Account of Pol: (From the Paris Commerce.) When a country wishes to shake off foreign domination it is necessary that all its constituent parts should be animated by one common seati- ment, and be agreed amongst themselves, both as regards the end and the means. This is a con- dition of success at once primary and indis; sable. A divided nation is already more than half conquered. Do the different provinces which ought to reunite for the formation of a new State of Poland now present that happy state of harmony without which their triumph would be impossible? K:vidently not. In almost all those provinces there is but little sympathy between the lords of the soil nd the people, who are still reduced to a state of serfdom more or less complete. In the Duchy of Posen there is a rooted antipathy of race, caste and religion between the Teutonic or ( and the Scalvonic or Polish elements. It is pretty much the same in Gall which, moreover, ap- pears to be very sincerely attached to Austria, The question, therefore, is to know if the Poles are now capable of organising themselves as a nation ina fixed and durable manner. ‘Their in- telligence and national character- is clearly proved by history—gave evidence in past times, when Poland wai still a kingdom, of a certain ins definable disposition to. disorder, revolution and anarchy, which never allowed them to constitute a regular and powerful unity; which degraded them from the exalted rank they once oecupied, and reduced them to subjection to foreign influence. Is this serious defect (whether natural or acquired we will not pause to inquire) remedied now ? ‘There 1s every reason to justify a reply in the nega- tive. Even should Poland now present that h: mony, that spirit of consistency and organisation. of which she would stand in need to reconstitute her nationality, she could not, succeed in reconsti- tuting it in defiance of the will of her formidable neighbors, If Russia and Germany were to bring their whole strength to bear upon her simul- taneously, like the two prongs of a powerful pul- veriser, she would be immediately crushed and ground to powder. Prussia and Austria may cer- tainly authorise the resurrection of Poland at some future period, and even concur in the work of re- | demption by their arms; they may certainly aban- don Posen and Galleia, but’ only on condition of receiving sufficient indemnities—the former on the Baltic and the North Sea; and the second to- wards the Khine and the mouth of the Danube. ‘Till then it is ve: tural that they should not give up what ee and you may rest as- sured that the not. The resurrection of Poland, therefore, can only be the re: general remodelling of Europe, and that is at pre- sent impossible. The moment France can rely on the co-operation of Germany, it will be her great duty to tf to the assistance of a nation so unjustly oppressed, so generous, 60 devoted, and so pro- digal of its blood in her cause. But to march now towards the frontiers of Poland, through Germany and in defiance of Germany, would be perhaps a very generous, but undoubtedly a very rash enter- prise, more calculated to compromise and rain France than to serve the nation we wish to deliver. We will say nothing of the disastrous consequences of a distant, and necessarily very expensive ex- dition, in the present state of our finances. ut we ought to make our diplomatis ¢ with skill, energy, and perseverance, in order ed Poltes latetlagence, An Itching Scene.—There was 4 good deal of itehing in the poheo court yesterday, in oa! uence of & Dutchman calling himself Johan Henry Weber, who applied to the magistrate, Justice Timpson, for a lodging on Biackwell’s Island. The old man spoke a litue brokev Eaglish, aud when he entered the court room, to make himself familiar with those present, took them by the hand, shook them heartly and wished them good health, On going up to the bench, he handed a dirty looking piece of paper to the Justice, considerable worn in consequence of having been handled in the warm hands of the Dutch- man, The persons whom he shook hands with, seeing the old man so friendly, flecked around him at the desk, anxious to know what the paper contained. The justice, after puttingon his spectacies, and turning the paper over several times, in order to make out its con- tents, as the writing was in pencil and much worn, d scovered at last that it was a request from the alms Loase commissioners, setting forth that the bearer had the seven year itch, of avery contagious nature, and wanted to go the hospital, on Biackwell’s Island. On this fact being known, the magistrate dropped the paper, pushed uphis specs, und felt at that moment an itching Sensution all over, that fairly shook the judicial chair, aod penetrated his great toe. Those who were standing near ané heard, on the announcement, drew away with a shudder, looked at each other with horror, and at once teltan itching in the paime of their hands ; first one would begin to seratch, and then another, until the whole court caught the contagion for seratch- ing—first the magistrate, then the clerks, and then the spectators—and such a scratching as was exhibited amongst all parties present, although no joke, was truly taugbab! ‘The justice asked the Dutchman how long he had been in this country—when he auswered, 21 months, and had been scratching along for a living ever since, but no sooner was he employed, than he seratehed hiaveilf out again. The magistrate took compassion on the miserable creature, and sent him to the penitentiary hoxpical, and banded the commitment to an officer, who, in taking him down, kept at a very respectiul distance. After this scene, the magistrate took @ bath, the clerks washed their hands and faces, anu biew their noses, yet such an itching feeling still existed, that their fingers were brought into play during the day, ulmost without knowing for what causo— merely from the effeets of imagination. Charge of Stealing a Watch.—Captain Horrigan, of the Sth ward police, arrested yesterday, a young man by the name of Joseph DeLuce, ona warrant issued by Justice Timpson, wherein he stands charged with steal- ing a gold watch and chain, va'ued at $70, the proper- ty of Theodore Dunscumb. It appears from the facts in the case, that Dunseumb visited a house of doubt- ful character at No, 25 Thomas street, and placed his watch and chain into the care and charge of «girl by the name of Lavenia Brown. DeLuce being a kind of confidential or silent partnerof Lave borrowed the watch andchain from her bedroom without her per- mission, and pawned the same at Simpson's pawn einChatham street, for $10. On his arrest, the accused acknowledged the corn and gave up the pawn ticket, denying altogether any intent to stoal, but merely being a little short for money, took this method of raising the wind. Under these circumstances the urrest was made, and Justice ‘Timpson com- mitted the accused to prison for a further examination. An alleged Charge of Forgery.—Officer Paterson, of the lower police, arrested, yesterday, a man by the name of Mathew Rowe, on a warrant issued by Justice ‘Timpson,wherein ho stands charged with an alleged for- gery, under the following circumstances, as sworn to by Oliver Johnson, of No. 63 Pike street, in an affidavie filed in the police office, It appears from this afiidavit, thatthe accused culled upon Mr. Johnson about the 20th of November, 1847, and showed him promissory note for $153, drawn by James Smith, October 20th, 1847, at three months after date. made payable to the order of George Oaks, and endorsed by Oaks, James Gallagher, Mathew Rowe and Alexander Cascaden. This note, the accused said, he could get the money for if it was endorsed by Mr. Johnson. Mr. J. knowing the names of the endorsers to be good, and feeling will- ing to oblige Mr. Rowe, placed his narsed on the back of the note, his (Johnson’s) name then being the last one on the nota. When the uote became due it, wi protested for non-payment; and since that, the endor- sers have been sued for the payment thereof. On the note being exhibited in the civil court, it was ascertained that the name of Johnson, instead of being the last endorser, was next to the last, as the name of Mathew Rowe, the accused, was the last name endorsed on the note. It was for the alteration that the forgery is alleged to exist, as Mr. Johnson asserts that the name of Mathew Rowe has been erased from above, and written again under Johnson's, which is said to constitute the charge of forgery, thus making Johnson liable for the amount of the note, as an endorser before Rowe. The whole mat- ter will be further investigated by the magistrate on Tuesday next, at 3 o’clook. Meanwhile, Mr. Rowe was allowed to remain on his own recogn' ce until that time. Arrest of a Pickpocket.—Yesterday afternoon, as a crowd was around the Express bulletin office, a Mr. Langley observed aman inthe act of endeavoring to pick the pecket of a Dr. Jon On informing Mr. Jones of the fact, the pickpocket, with one of his ac- complices, tried to make his escape, but was pursued, taken into custody by officer Leonard, and conveyed to the office of the Chief of Police, where he gave the name of James Campbell. He was detained by the chief for a farther examination.
