The great telegraphic dispute which broke out about a year ago, waxes warmer and warmer every day, and, according to all appearances, an adjustment is as far off as ever. This dispute originated in the West, but it has been changed to the East, and is now in full blast in the city of New York; as will be seen by several communica- tions on the subject, from both sides, published in this day’s Herald. It has become more spirited too, than it was, for the friends of the belligerents write with more animation, and go more deeply imto the subject, than they have previously done. The reason for changing the theatre of contro- versy, from the West and Southwest, to the East, cen, we apprehend, be found in the visit of Mr O'Reilly to this city, with the view ot construct- ing a line ot telegraph between here and Bos- ton, in opposition to the present line, which, from vValious causes, has become unpopular with the community. That gentleman has extended his wires over the whole West and Southwest, a dis- tance of nearly, if not quite. four thousand miles an those directions, and thus brought the remotest | points of the country within speaking distance of each other. Having accomplished this, he seeks another field for the display of his enterprise, and having determined that there was an opening here, he has arrived for the purpose of competing with the old Ine to Boston. No sooner was his fully and with de | ee Pulton and JATIONAL THEATER, — Street—Trc Miser oF | | | | | | object known, than the whole subject of telegraph. | ing by electricity, the rights of patentees, and the various modes of operating, are again brought before the public, and our paper having been se- lected by the rival parties for the exposition of their respective views, we publish both s the story, and shall leave the public to f own opinions on the merits of the matter at issue between them. The progress of the magneue telegraph in this country has been truly astonishing. It was only the other day that the posts were erected between Washington and Baltimore, and between this city and Philadelphia, and now we receive communications from New Orleans, by two lines, from St. Louis and other distant places, | and publish them daily in our journal. I[n- | telligence of an accident, a steamboit ex- plosion, an election, or any other occurrence of moment. in the most distant parts of the country, reaches us within an hour after it takes place, and is known in New York as soon, and sometimes sooner than it is to the people in its immediate locality. We have no doubt that, be- fore long, all the principal newspapers in the large cities throughout the country, will be entirely made up of intelligence received over the tele- graph wires, with the exception of edi torial remarks, city news, and advertisements. In- deed, we have even reevived advertisements by telegraph. Correspondente will send their eommunications by electricity instead of by mail, and merchants, and the public gene- rally, will do the saw The effect of all thie competition in the establishment of rival lines, between different peints, will be to redue: the charges sc low as to make it an object to do so. When that time shall have come, Mr. Cave Johnson's occupation will be gone, to a very great extent, and the Post Office departrnent will dwin- die down to a “mere agency tor conveying news- papers to subseribers ‘There are some connected with this subject, which will interest our readers. ‘The difference in time, between this city and New curious Orleans, i# about an hour and a half. As ageneray rede, the hour for closing the business of the day is ten o'clock, P.

They were brought by Mr. William Sewell, who came paseenger, out they are barren of any newe beyond what we have already given from that quarter The dates are not later ! | be provided for disease to live upon. Tux Crotzra.—We learn, by the last accounts from Europe, that this dreadful scourge of the human race had reached Trieste and Ham- burg, and that all doubt of its reaching Eng- land, in due course of time, was at an end. The corporate authorities of London, and other cities in that country, were pru- dently adopting measures to lessen the extent of its ravages to as great an extent as possible. We do not wish to excite alarm in the public mind, but we must candidly say, that there is every pro- bability of this plague being in our midst within six months, or perhaps within three. It ie full time, therefore, that sanitary measures were adopt- ed here, too; and when we consider that precau- tionary Measures exercise a great influence on the prevention of all plagues, as well as in the mitigation of their ravages, the sooner they are adopted the better. Cholera has been deprived of many, if not most, of its horrors, by the discoveries that have been made by the medical profession, both in Europe and inthe United States, since it last visited those | parts of the world. The most important of these is, that ma majority of cases it can be cured in its early stages, if proper remedies are applied. The patient is invariably attacked by a relaxation | of the bowels, which yields readily to judicious medical treatment. Another, hardly less impor- tant than the preceding, 1s that cleanliness of the | person, of dwellings, and of the streets of thickly populated towns and cities, if not an actual pre- ventive, certainly controls the ravages of all epi. demical diseases. We wish to impress the umpor- tance of these two points on the public mind, and | on our city authorities. We annex the following extract trom a report of the sanitary commission- ers of England, as proof of the importance of re- sorting to medical advice as soon as the patient is attacked. | During the seven days which immediately preceded the opening of the dispensary at Bilston, by Dr. Mo- Cann, for the treatment of bowel complaints, 309 deaths from cholera were recorded ; during the seven days which immediately followed the opening of that dispensary, and in consequence of the prompt atten- tion that had been paid du ing that time to the very commencement of the first stage of the disease, the deaths fell to 139; that is, the mortality was dimin- ished more than one-half in a single week ; and from that period the prevalence of the disease continued rapidly to lessen, and the pestilence was totally and finally exterminated in the apace of twenty-three days from the first adoption of the plan. If personal cleanliness were more generally | adopted in England than it 1s, or was at that time, there is every reason to believe that a majority of | the above-mentioned cases of cholera would not | | have occurred. From all that we can gather on at 3 | the subject, what 18 most to be guarded against, | when premonitory symptoms of an attack take | place, is, that the patients feel that there is no cause of alarm. He thinke, in consequence of the mildness of the attack im its incipient stages, that it is merely a common diarrhea, which will cure itself, and, therefore, he ne- glects to take remedies, which, if applied in time, would have sa’ his life. But he allows the symptoms to inerease and the disease to go on; ina few hours collapse ensues, and he dies, a martyr to his own neglect or temerity. Indeed, so much importance is attached to meeting the disease in its infancy, by persons competent to give an accurate opinion on the subject, thata German medical man, of great celebrity in his | practice, says, if these premonitory symptoms are immediately met with active medical treatment, the further developement of the disease is almost as infallibly prevented, as certainly as an inciprent conflagration 1s extinguished by a copious effusion | of water. If, however, they are neglected, nothing remains in the bloodvessels but a small portion of thick tar-like blood, which the action of the heart eannot propel to the surface and to the extreme- ties, and thereupon follow, in due course, fluxes, cramps, stoppage of the pulsation, and death. | The next point is, cleanliness of the streets, | and especially narrow ones, ot cities and towns. This is second only in importance to the other. It both be carried out, the cholera, and all other epidemics, may, to a great extent, be put at de- fiance. From the position and topography of New York, our city ought to be one of the most healthy in the world. Wuth natural advantages, which few others im any part of the world possess, it could be rendered so clean, that no aliment would The ground gradually ascends from both the t and North rivers to the centre, which may be called the back- bone of the island, furnishing unrivalled means of carrying off all surface water. Within the past year or two, a great portion of the cuy has been sewered, and, in addition to all this, we have a bountiful supply of pure water, by means of the Croton Aqueduct. Still, in spite of all these, New York is, emphatically, a dinty city. The streets are never clean, except | after a deluge of rain. They Could, however, be made so, with a little trouble, and we trust that some movement of the kind wall be undertaken before the pestilence shall be among us. Our readers can perceive, therefore, that if a system of cleanliness of the person and of our city be adopted and followed out, there need be no feeling of alarm at the approach of the cholera. In one month we could make such arrangeme.ts as would enable us to put the vile disease at de- fiance. When we have the means of doing so, why not do it? Let the public, theretore, and the jrese, take the matter in hand at once, aud see that | the health of the city pe preserved. Brazis.—By way of Balumore, we are ceipt of files of the Jornal do Comercio, of Rio Janeiro, to the 19th August. They contain no news whatever, either from Brazils or La Plata. Sporting Intelligence, Gare} Trorrixe Matou —A trotting match for $2,000, mile heats, best three in five, will be decided this afternoon, at the Union Course. The match is between Grey Eagle, of Boston, and Lady Sutton, of New York, two of the fatest nags on the turf. Lady Sutton has been the favorite, and to « late hour on Saturday night, the betting ranged at 100 to 80 in her favor, and it is probable, that this will be the state of the odds to the time of starting The grey horse oes under the saddle, and the mare in harness. Tak- fig the previous public performances of the above named horees into consideration, in anticipating the result, we should say that the chances are dectdediy in favor of Lady Sutton; as it will be remembered that in her engagement with Lady Suffolk,on the 18th ot Jast July. on the Centreville course, she made her firat heat in 2:31—the eecond, in 2°32, and the third, in 2:33; and she is at this time in as fine condition as she was then, and as good time may be expected to- day. if called for. The best time that Grey bagle ever made in public, to our recollection, war 2.43; but that wae a few years since, and he, of course, may be faster now. At all events, the Bostonians have goue into this match with their eyes opem. and they are very Fanguine of success The race, however, will tell the story. Immediate after the above match, a purse and stake of $450, mile heate, best three in five, in har- pees, will be trotted for byc. h. m. Jenny and Sir (from Boston.) which will make up «great day's Hi sport Tur Pieron Express.—We stated some weeks since, that the news which mysteriously made its appearance in this city, and was derpatched to the South, for the benefit of operators, in advance of the arrival of the English steamers, wasobtained by moans of carrier pigeons, which had been for some time in course of training for thie purpore. The pian has bren for two men to go OD Yourd the steamers at Halt. fax. with & small bod case of types, anda box of pigeons, Having selected the news, it has been set up in their state rooms and printed off on very thin in the manner in whieh proofs are usual- aper y taken in a wewapaper office; these proofs were then attached te the pigeons, which were let loose from the window of the #tate-room. The captains of the Bosten steamers have had their rurpicion® awakened as to the modus operandi, for rome time. and bad received instructions from the Cunard directors to break up this monopoly of news, by probibitory charge for the passage of the pigeons, On the pastage of the Cainbria from Halifax, the euspicions of Captain Harrison were confirmed by the direovery of box of pigeons whi ere brought on bosrd at Halifax, and which were seized on the re- fural of the person baying them in charge to pay the price demanded for their pasrage.— Boston Traveller Oct, 6.

Pans Tuearae.— This establishment bas beem very successful during the last fortnight, and will continue £0 as long as talent of an sttractive order is engaged, This evening Madame Anna Bishop will appear ina scene from Donizetti’s opers of “ Linda of Chamoun,” in whieh she will sing the favorite ballad of the ‘ Banks of Guadelquiver,” and other beautiful airs. She will aleo sing the celebrated air La Marseillaise,” in the costume of one of the French National Guard. Those last week, will. ne doubt, atrains 1d this eve jaisir tr This will be th eighteenth representation, and yet the play- oing folks areas anxious as ever to see it again, We should like to see s well selected opera company at the Park, and. as Hamblin says“ there is no such word as fail,” we feel assured he will use every effort to please the merous patrons of his new and splendid theatre, by jcomplishing an object so generally desired. Bowsry Tueatax.—During the coming week, we expect there will be great times at the Bowery, as ex- traordipary attractions will be set forth. For some time past, tragedy and comedy have been the chief performances, interspersed with the elegant dancing of Clocea and Neri. Now, however, a different order of entertainments will be brought on—entertainments which can be got up at the Bowery in # style which no other house in the country can compete with : we mesn romantic melo-drama and spectacle. The man- ager bar engaged Mr. G F. Browme, one of the most talented equestrian actors, and his steed Gazelle; and the grand equestrian drama of ‘ Rookwood’’ will be the bret piece in which he will appear. To night it will be produced, with all the grandeur and éclat pos- sible. It isa most interesting and thrilling drama, and we are sure that its reproduction will be huiled with delight by all th pare 8 of the Bowery. Mr Browne takes the of Dick Turpin, the highway- man ; and the various characters the piece will supported by the most talented members of the com- pny The dancing of Signora Ciocca and Signor eri, and the beautiful feiry extravaganza of * Fortu- nio,” in which Miss ‘Tayior is so admirable, will con- clude the performances. With such an extraordinary attractive bill, the house, no doubt, will be crowded to overflowing. Broapway Tueatre.—During the last fortnight this central and beautiful theatre was crowded every night to hear the great Irish comedian and splendid vocalist, Mr. Collins, who has deservedly become the favorite of the people, by his exquisite perronation of Irish character, and in bis inimitable songs, which always draw down the most rapturous applause. To- night Mr. Blake, who has been such @ favorite while laying at the Broadway, last ceason, appears as Jesse ural. in the beautiful comedy entitled ‘* Old Heads end Yourg Hi: ”” The other characters will be sustained by Mesers, Fredericks, Shaw, Vache, Lester, Dyott, Hadaway. Mrs. Abbott, and Miases F. Wallack and Hildreth This is @ powerful cast, and with an after-piece called “ The Loan of a Lever.” and the dancing of Madame Celeste and Mons. Wiethoff, we think the Broadway will receive its portion of exten- sive theatrical patronage The Seguins should com- mence as 8000 a8 porsible, in order to secure a c@ptinu- ation of the large patronage bestowed on this theatre. Nationa Tueatre.—For to-night there is a splen- did bill set forth at thie elegant house. Mr. Cartlitch, a most admirable actor. has been engaged, and will appear in one of Douglas Jerrold’s beautiful dramas, viz: “The Miter of Southwark Ferry,” @ piece of thrilling interest It will, no doubt, be highly success- ful, and as Stark, Palmer, Taylor, Herbert, Seymour, &e., and Mies Mestayer. are cast in the pivce, we can answer for it, it will be well acted. After the drama a bew burlesque called ir. McGreedy,” will be played. It is, we presume, a bit at the excitement in favor of the eminent tragedian. and as it is written by © Burke, (who, by the by, takes the part of Mr. MacGre dy.) itis, doubtless, a fanny affair. Mr. Chanfrau ap- pears in it, and, we should say, it would afford him @ five chance for giving his inimitable imitations of cele- Pieces like this, hitting off the topics of done, are always amusing. The ‘Mysteries and Miseries”’ will be the last piece It was to bave been witi drawn, but the excitement to fee it. ix still so great, that the manager concluded to give his patrons @ few more chances to witness this, the most popular piece of the season. Those who wish good seats at the National to night, had better go early. Bunton’s Turatee.—Burton is indefatigable Never was such a perfect avalanche (we may term it) of new and excellent pieces showered down fo liberally at any theatre as there is at his beautiful house in Chambers street. To-night he will be at it again, and the ori- ginal local drama of “ New York in Slices,” concocted to order, as he has it in the bills, will be the novelty. It will be a most amuring piece, if we can judge from the bill, which promises great things. Mauy of the most prominent localities of the city will be repre- rented ; and, altogether, we expect it will be one of the most amuring local pieces yet prodaced The funny farce of Mr. Lobjoit’? will commence the performances, and the equally laughable ove of © The (oodles”” will con- clode it. Burton and Broughesn will appear in the farces. und the whole of the company will appear in the local drama. Truly, Mr Burton deserves the thanks of the community for the admirable style in which be serves up the amusements at his theatre, and we are glad to know that the “ slices” of patronage he receives, are not thim ones, but good substantial ones, such as he richly deserves. Nisto’s Turatke.—The indefatigable Niblo has had, theatical exertions bave been well appreciated by his patrons. Every night this magnificent theatre is crowded, either to hear the musical, or excellent dra- matic talent for which ali of Niblo’s selections are characterived. To-night Mr Macradey appears again Tapturous applause On its first representation, The cast embraces ail the strength of the excellent com pany of Astor Place, and no doubt, as en the other two evenings he played, the Broadway omnibasses will be filled from the hour of six till baif past seven o'clock, The entertainments will conciude with the laughable farce of “PP; or, The Man and the Tiger,” in which Messr: Mis Kate Horn, and others, will appear very attractive bill, and we are persuaded an ase!

A. of the Stare committee, A committee of ity was appointed to vention, who reported the following :— Edgar Atwater, of New Haven, President; Calvin W. Philleo, of Hartford; William H. Jones, of New Ha- ven; J. G, Baldwin, of Middlesex ; A. B. Cleveland, of New Londen; Stephen Curtis, of Fairfield; Seth Jilson, of Windbam; E. S.

Dimook, of Hartford, was chairman, was appointed to receive the crede! tials of members, and reported 225 delegates. This umber was considerably swelled by the reception of credentials from delegates who presented them subse- uent to the report of the committee. But besides the chosen delegates, the people had come up In large numbers, to manifest their interest in the great cau: of freedom. Electors favorable to the tree soil organi aution, were invited to participate in the deliberations ot the convention. While the committees were bury, the audience was treated to an enthusiastic speech from W.H. Burleigh, which was received with great applause. The President, also, on taking the chair, made a neat and appropriate address, expressing his thanks for the honor, &c., and speaking in fervent language ofthe great issue, at the presence of which party ani- mositics had been hushed, and men had forgotten the differences of many yearsin a cordial union for the take of human freedom. After some discussion as to the mode of nominating electors, it was referred to a committee of three from each congressional district. Hen Natnaniet Sawyer, of Ohio, was called for, and. appeared upon the stand amidst general applause. He described himself as an Ohio farmer, and showed by ‘remarks that he was indeed in the babit of dealing with free soil, while his former residence in a sla’ State had enabled him to compare the two conditions of life in an interesting and instructive manner [I speak thus generally both of him and other 6 because it is out of my power to give an adequate re- port of the remarks made to day, and a rlight sketch, such as | might possibly give, would possess but little interest.) Mr. Avriance then addressed the convention with great earnestness, and at the conclusion of hisremarks the committee for the nomination ef electors reported the following ticket ‘At large—Amos M. Collins, of Hartford, William Alexander of Killingly. District No, 1—Francis Gillette of Bloomfield; No. 2— Henry White. of New Haven; No 3—Increase Wil- sop, oi New London; No. 4—Lancelot Phelps, of Mitch. cockville. Mr. Doyix, of New York, then addressed the conven- some length. and with great animation. His remarhs were chiefly occupied with a review of the his- tory and position of the * baruburoers”’ of New York. and ap examination of the character and principles of Mr. Van Buren with reference to the great question of the time. He was listened to with deep attention, and called out immense cheering, and convulsed the avdience with merriment, while he showed up the posi tion of the two “regular candidates,” particularly the eat Michigander. He would have been heard with Siterest much longer than he actually spoke, but the ee, and even in a good cause men convention, in excellent spirits, ‘appetite, adjourned for tea, of the evening was a speech from Hon.

He was followed by Mr. Bur- leigh, in his best style, and finally the President ad- dressed the convention im a brief speech of great force, beauty, and eloquence. The assembly broke up at Jate hour with three cheers for Martin Van Buren, three for victory in Conneeticut, and cheers for dive! otber persons and things. There was no drawback on the harmony of the con- vention, except the disorderly conduct of sundry per- sonrin the gallery, who illustrated their ideas of free speech by hissing, whistling, and other inarticulate sounds in the courze of the evening.
