Highly Important from Canada, ‘The news from Canada is deeply important. We refer our readers to our Montreal correspondence, giving an account of the first steps in the organiza- tion of a movement that may lead to vast results in those previnces. The tone of the late English journals has convinced the Canadians that the British government will not interfere in the local legislation, nor will the Queen veto the appropria- tion for the rebellion losses. It is now expected every day that Lord Elgin will return the bill with his signature attached to it. Canada is now in the beginning of a great crisis.

Various comments are made upon this singular result, and particularly upon the fact that the jury stood seven for acquittal and five only for conviction. Every body admits that the most incompetent and most incomprehen- sible mismanagement in the arrest and subsequent Proceedings, lies at the foundation of this lame and impotent conclusion. What ought to be done to catch tho rest of these rascals, and to punish them 2 Ought not the fede- ral government to demand » rigid examination of the New York police, upon their proceedings in this singular mystery ? Ought not the Mayor of New York to institatean immediate inquiry into this matter, and particularly to ascertain what has be- come of the chief robber of these jewels—that is Jim Webb, who is the great Mogul of the concern? It may be remembered that Jim Webb, Tom Hand, or Shuster, were designated as the robbers among the police circles of thismetropolislong before either of them was caught. The matter was talked over among the knowing ones ; but the first distinet movement leading to their arrest, was | for poor Stubbs, a worthy man, and nowi the vale coed officer nedfier abo caught Jim Webb, | of years, and no longer capable of commencing life we believe, in Jersey City, and brought him over to | anew. ‘This removal from the State Department the Tombs here, where he was confined for seve- | ought to gratify the vengeance of Mr. Webster suf- ral days.

The whole affair Seema to have been strangely managed—in its progress, in the. escape of Webb, as well as in the bungling trial at Wash- ington, the weakness of the evidence, the disagree- ment of the jury, and the general mystification which prevails over it all in reference to the share of New York in the business. We urge again, and we call again upon the Mayor to institute an inquiry as to the whereabouts of Jim Webb. We call, also, upon the government at Washington to turn over a new leaf, and to probe the whole of this mysterious businessto the bottom. Where is Jem Webb? Can any body tell where Jem Webb is? CurtovseOrgra DeveLorement—LetTEr From Mr. Fry.—We find in the Boston Atlas a very naive and interesting epistle from Mr. Fry, manager of the late Opera at the Astor Place Theatre, de- veloping some new and curious facts in the geolo- gical formation of the late opera season among the delectable haut ton of Boston. This letter will be found in another part of this day’s journal, accom panied by the very nave and appropriate remarks of the editor of the Boston Atlas. The letter of Mr. Fry and the remarks of the Atlas writer dove tail into each other most beautifully, most exactly and most mathematically, like a streak of black and a streak of white. We begin to sympathise very deeply with Mr. Fry, notwithstaréing his hostilily to us, but we cannot cry our eyes out. He has been a very unhappy—very unfortunate man in opera From Sr. Croix.—We learn from Captain Van Gilder, who arrived yesterday, from St. Croix, that there had been little or no rain for the last six months, and that the crops have suffered much in consequence.

For several day Previous old winter sent is chiliing blast over the tity, and spring scemed to have taken her flight. Tho ftfal gusts of snew, and the cold north wind, with the biting frost, gave a sudden check to vegetation, and caused to be enwrapped in heavy furs the fairy forms that are wont in springtime to perambulate the sunny side of Broadway. But with yesterday the welcome truant spring returned, and again the hoavy robos of winter disappeared, ‘The fair daughters of Gotham appeared in all their gay and lovely attire; the parks places were filled with children, sporting upon the half-seared grass, but » few days since so green and flourishing. During tho whole day, not » cloud inter- yened to hide the brightness of the god of the morning, and his warming influence continued until the western horizon hid his face, The evening was cool, but without an indication of a return to the late unpleasant weather, Anniv: ny oy THR OnrHax Asyiom Socinty.—Tho forty-third anniversary celebration of the New York Orphan Asylum Society came off yosterday, at tho Apollo Saloon, the proceedings of which were sttondo | with considerable intorest, The spacious saloon was filled with ladies, who seemed to be foremost in the charitable work of making happy tho fathorless chil- dren under the supervision of the society. The chil- dren, one hundred and thirty in number, occupied an elevated stage at the rear end of the saloon, aad being noatly dressed, were joyous and happy. 'The cere- monies were opened by reading a portion of Scripture, after which Rev. Weston read the annual report of the Society. ‘The expenditure of the Boelety for the last your amounted to $7,387 48, leaving $1,400 unpaid. Mr. ‘Weston spoke at length upon the resignation of Mrs. Alexander Hamilton, for many years the first directress of the institution, andwho with untiring seal watched over its interest with unabated devotion.

Drranturr or Moses G. Lronanp, Esq., vor Caur- rornia.—A large number of the friends of Moses G. Leonard, Feq., late Alms Houso Commissioner, accom- panied him as far as Sandy Hook yosterday, on the way to Californ: Tho steamboat Stranger was chartered for the special purpose, and, at one o'clock P.M., they started from Pier No, 1 North River. Among'those who accompanied Mr. L., were several members of the Common Council, who, from their daily effic'al inter- course with that gentleman, had formed for him a last- ing friendship and esteem. ’ Tho best fecling pervaded the whole company, and it was not until the Crescent ing to his own showing, he sunk fourteen thousand dollars in attempting to furnish the fashionables up town with an elegant, accomplished, and aristo- cratic Amusement, altogether unapproachable, save by the exclusive few subscribers, and excluding all the rest of the world as outside barbarians. Now, from his recent letter to Boston, we find his losses among the Boston fashionables amount to over four thousand dollars, besides his incurring the personal inconvenience of being held up to the world as delinquent to his engagements, merely because he had not the time to raise a few hard dollars to pay the balance due his chorus singers. What his losses in Philadelphia may have been, or his profits, we — tention hes not been mainly directed to making it s source of revonue, af least for the first year; bub te ter the burden of jury duty upon our citizens. fevertheless, it has yielded to the city treasury the sum of $500 over and above its exponses; and it is be- lieved that no revenuo has ever heretofore boon de- rived from this source. Hereafter, there is reason to expect that the income from this source will be much greator—though revenue, it is considered, should not be a primary object in this connection. It will be perceived that the sum of $206/54 ts retain- ed in the hands of the commissioner, Tintend, unless otherwise directed by the Board of Sapervisors, to re- tain this sum, together with the collections to be mado during the present month, to meet the exponses of making the new jury lat, to be commenced on the first of next month. Last year I was andor advances for this purpore to an amouné equal. to that accruing during the first five months of the yoar, bosides receiving nothing as salary for that period.

The expense of ing the noxt list. will bo much less than for the last. Still, every year, owing to remoy- als and accessions to our population, this expenditure must be renewod.

Scores of eyes were turned towards the centro door, as if they sought some expected object. Sundry remarks were made upon the affair which caused all this stir. “What d'ye think the court will do?” said ono elderly gent, with a jolly face, anda humorsome twinkle of the eye, to @ companion on the floor. “ What d’yo think? will they send her up?” City stopped her engine for the Stranger to approach and put Mr. Leonard on board, that the feelings which overpower the strong man burst forth, and though loud huzzas rent the air, many friends wept that their social circle should lose one who had contributed so much to their pleasures and enjoyments.

We doubt much the policy of this movement. There are already artists enough, and in great abundance, in this city, of the first rank in their profession; and if any recruits should be bronght across the Atlantic on the approaching seagon, there will be an attempt to get up arival Italian Opera, at some other theatre in the city. We hope Mr. Fry, if he has not gathered dollars by his past experience as a manager of Italian Opera, has yet, however, managed to pick up a little wis- dom to guide his career for the future.

Thus it appears that the New York haut ton cost $14,000—Boston, only $4,000—Philadelphia, unknown. — This is certain- ly “too much pork fora shilling.” ‘We really begin to be sorry for Mr. Fry’s bad success, deprecating the unhappy advisers who have led him astray; but yet inquiring how comes he to have made all these losses?

The first floor and basementjare occupied by Alfrod North, dry goods dealer, whose stock was completely saturated with water. "The damage is supposed to bo $10,000, which was fully insured. The building, which is owned by Charles Minturn, 'was damaged to the amount of $1,500, which was also insured. The fire was causod by the upsetting of a spirit gas lamp, used for heating glue; and so rapidgwere the flames that before the alarm could be given the whole room was on fire, but chiefly confined to that part of the house by the prompt action of the firemen, who wero almost immediately on tho spot, A fire broke out about a quarter past nine o'clock, Inat night, in the second story of the building, No. 90 William street, occupied by Gross, Greely & Co., ass gimp and fringo store, which was extinguished before material damage had been sustained.

Ternmir Uproar spout THE Spoms—ReMovars AND ArrornTMENTS.—Certain portions of the news- paper press, principally of the partizan class, are ra- pidly running into a tremendous excitement about removals and new appointments now taking place, under the auspices of General Taylor’s cabinet. The office holders are not more excited than the office beggars. The first are terribly reluctant to give up the speils of the kitchen—the latter are furiously hungry to stay their stomachs, after a twenty years’ abstinerce. It is quite amusing to see the tears of the office holders, which they are shedding in all directions, at relinquishing the spoils, and the groans of the office beggars, at the dilatory progress of the cabinet in ousting the pre- sent incumbents. Yet in the midst of this general scramble and ex- citement between the out-going and the in-coming politicians, there are now and then particular cases which deserve special notice. Mr. Stubbs, who has long been the chief clerk in the State Depart- ment, under various administrations, has been at lastremoved. He has published a very moderate and pathetic statement of his removal, in one of the Washington papers. So far the cabinet have exe- cuted nothing beyond their duty in the removals hitherto; but we rather think Mr. Clayton must have been too much influenced by external pres- sure, or he would not have thrown out of employ- ment, at his advanced age, so worthy a man as Mr. Stubbs, who, for twenty years, has given satisfac- tion to all parties. It seems that Mr. Webster in- sisted, for some personal reasons, upon his remo- val; and perhaps Mr. Clayton may not have been able to resist so resolute and determined a man as Mr. Webster, especially considering the impor- tanoe of his situation and the value of his servioes in the Senate. But we think Mr. Clayton and General Taylor should give seme situation to Mr. Stubbs in somo other department, or see if something could not be done for him elsewhere. Among all the removals thus far made by the cabinet, this is the only one which seems to cali for decided regret, and we really hope that General Tayior will do something THE REPORT OP THE COMMISSIONER OF JURORS, Orrice oy THE Commissions ov Jonona, } April 5, 1849. Honorable the Board of Supervisors, of the city and county of New York :— Horewith is an aceount of receipts and expenditures at this office for the last year, ‘The whole amount re- ceived in $3,135 76; the amount expended, including salary of commissioner, is $2,420 22; leaving an ex- cess of receipta, over oxpenditures, of $706 54. Of this amount, $500 has been paid into ‘tho city treasury, throngh the Chamberlain, aa per his receipt filed in the Comptroller's office, and the sum of $206 54 remains in my hands. y first object, om assuming the duties of this office, was to lighten the burden of tho jury duty heretofore borne by those persons habitually sum- moned to perform this duty. It had previously reached toabout three to five terms por annum for each indi- vidual summoned. The number formerly returned by the asseesors was about five thousand, of whom less than two thousand were found liable. Tho gmount paid to the assessors for making these returns was $900 erannum. | instituted a full canvass of tho city and obtnined twenty-four thousand names, at » cost of $743. As directed by law, notice was given through the newspapers employed by the Corporation, for empts to register themselves at this office. This, in egrent measure, they neglected to do. Every effort was made to obviate this diMeulty by obtaining re- turns from the uniformed militia, fire companios, tho association of exempt firemen, &o. Still many exemp- tions remained unrecorded, and could not be obtained until, on being drawn and summoned, the persons claiming them appeared at this office and made their exemption known. In this way, the large list furnished is beeoming gradually cleared of oxempts; and at the closo of the jury year, the 3lst of July noxt, thero will remain a clear list of about ten or twelve thousand available names—a number large enough to supply all our courts for ono year, calling on each individual but once in that period. peete the year now pending from August 1848 te August 184% no pergon has been, nor will be, called to act asa juror more than once, and this will be the set- tled system hereafter. The chief difoulty in the first year’s operation of the now system has been that, of the panels summoned, comparatively few persona have ap- peared. This is owing to the number of exempts yeb remaining om tho list, and will not oxist after the Ist of August next. In the moantime the difficulty mer, bo wholly obviated by inoreasing the number ord by the courts on cach panel, which may be carried te any extent, as the supply in the jury box cannot be ex- hausted by tho most liberal drafts, This course is neo adopte d by the sevoral courte, ‘Though the he, oa of starting a now system has been greater for the first year th will be hereafter, it has not been greater, indecd leas, than that of the Limited and ine@icicut systom of former yoars.

N.Y. Serciat. Svisatona, Kate Hastings ads. The People City and County of New York, s2:— Catharine Hastings, the above named defendant, being duly sworn, deposes and says, that, in a paper called Ned Buntline's Own, of a recent date, and prior to the aseault complained of in this case, the following reurrilous attack was published of and concerning this deponent, as follows :— {Here was inserted the obnoxious article referred to “Officers will preserve order,” ssys @ above.J ‘That the complainant in this caso, Edward Z.C. Judson, is notoriously the editor of the said paper, and that he has for a considerable period published similar gross attacks upon deponent, all of which have been calculated to and did arouse th ger of this do- pment against him, Deponent farther says, that the documents marked A and B, which are hereto annexed, ‘These letters contain expressions too gross and in- lecent tc meet the public gaze in a newspaper, and hence we cannot givo them. They were mere black- guard missiver couchod in the plainest and most indo- cent terms] were sent to this deponent, as doponont verily believes by the said E. Z.C. Judson, as his name is rubscribed tothe one marked A ; and portions of the one marked B. aro similar to the writing of the one to which his name is signed. Deponent further says, that the chastixemont she inflicted upon the said Judson was induced solely by these attacks upon hor, and by no other cause. Deponent further says, that sho is in- formed and verily believes the fact so to be, that this case has been presented to the Grand Jury, as appears by ‘an endorsement upon the back ct’ the com- plaints ; and as deponent is informed and believes, In consequence of there not being a sufficient number of votes to find a bill against this deponent; and this deponent farther saith, that it h not been her intention to deny that she in- flicted personal chastisement upon the said Judson.and as the Grand Jury are unable to pronounce upon her guilt, she freely admits chastising him, thus saving the county the expense of » trial, under tho full impression and belief that the seid Judson fully merited oven se verer punishment than ho has received at her hands, in consequence of these scurrilous attacks upon this deponent.
