The singular and unique particulars of this burg iry, as far as ascertained up to this time, will be found | in our eolumns elsewhere. This transaction is | generally considered, by those who profess to know, to have been perpetrated by some of the same gang ____ | who are supposed to have robbed the jewelry store | in Pattimore, a few months ago; also, more recent- | ly, the Cleveland Insurance Co. of Ohio, of a large amount of fund»—the robbers of which, have been | jurt arrested, and the money returned. : | [twill be reccllected, that of the burglars who | perpetrated the famous robbery of the government jewels from the Washington Patent Office, some | time since, only one was convicted, and the rest es- aped under a stool-pigeon mantle, and have ever since been abroad upon the community. It will also be recollected, that some time ago, a burglary was committed on the Westerly Bank, of Rhode Island, of which little or no account has been taken or inves- tigation made. The robbery of the jeweller’s shop in Baltimore, followed soon after; that of the Cleveland Insurance Company was not long be. hind; and we now have the magnificent robbery of the Dorchester Bank, near Boston—all forming a consecutive series of “ safe precedents,” originat- ing, as is generally understood, in the fertile intel- lects of some of the stool-pigeon gang, whose head- quarters are in this city, whose recent transactions have begun to be understood and appreciated by the world at large. The following may be con- sidered a list of these recent robberies and burgla- ries, with the amount taken :— The government jewels from the Patent Office —one punirhed, the rest escaped ‘The Westerly Bank of Rhode Islan MOMISCOVETY. «6. ses secee eens + 154 | The jeweller’s shop in Baltimore, no discovery... 10,000 The’ Cleveland Insurance Company—robbers just arrested... 0.05 oe The Dorchester Bank, (M Aggregate .. b . All these nefarious burglaries have followed in a reguler line of succession, and appear to have originated in the same gang or coterie of brilliant operators who have recently set up business on the independent principle, and have located their head-quarters in this city. Some of them have served regular apprenticeships to the business in London and other parts of Europe. The other aids and assistants to the gang, are composed of black- mail reporters to the disreputable press of New York and the country, stool pigeons for the use of the independent Vidocq’s of the day, and small law- yers, who set up on their own kook round about the Tombs, to pick up cases of a similar kind, wherever they can get them, The regular and re- spectable police authorities of New York, have been engaged in making discoveries that will reveal, by and by, some of the secrets of this gang, and their recent operations in various parts of the country; and we are prepared to receive some astounding disclosures, one of these days, that will develope the whole of these nefarious proceedings, which have been going on, for some time past, among the stool pigeon gang in this city and throughout the country. The respectable police authorities of Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and of other cities, ought to join their efforts with the regular police of New York, in discovering the haunts and projects of these rogues and their supporters. Prawerecy Fivancrens on Generat Taytor.— The Plainfield financiers are very severe and savage on General Taylor, because he insisted that his cabinet should carry into effect the neutrality laws, as well as the laws of nations, in reference to the recent piratical expedition fitted out by Lopez, from New Orleans, to the Island of Cuba. ‘These pirates and their organs, instead of ex- hibiting their teeth in such a way, ought to rejoice and be glad that they have escaped, by the clemency of the Grand Jury, trom the punishment due to their violation of the laws of the country. But the Plainfield financiers have always been lucky. A Grand Jury in New Jersey once indicted them for their practices under the charter of the Plainfield Bank—one of a batch of babble banks which they bed set en foot—and the Governor of New York re- futed to deliver up the indieted, as the Grand Jury now have refused to look narrowly into the viola- tion of the neutrality laws. They are lucky ; but let them have a care how they proceed in these expeditions and practiees any more. They should turn their attention to the bubble ef enlatging the Battery—that may de for the present to amuse their readers and humbug | the public. is Commopors Stock Ton @errine OFF To GET ON perren.—There is a story of a pedlar in Counecti- cut, who was seen by an honest farmer to get off his horse, and then to remount. The farmer in- quired the reason, to which the pedlar replied, “1 got off, to get on better.” This was applied to Ma: | tin Van Buren when he resigned, on the twelfth of March, 1929, the office of Governor of his native State, fora pootinthe cabinet of President Jackson. * | ‘The ancedote may be applicd with equal force to | Commodore Stockton, who has resigned his post in the Navy telfseek retirement from public life. | “Heb ff, to get on better.” By thas dis- | mounting, he stands a fair chance to become a can- | didate for the Presidency of ge United States.

It mey be remem!ered that a , similar movement wae made by the speculative ' mitide among the trades, about twenty years ago, | in which the ruling principles of socialism, com- muniem, and equalization of wages, by the lazy and the industrious, were urged with mach geal and apparent brotherly love. There was no whole- some practical reswlt from the agitation, however. On the contrary, those whose hindeess of heart | and gencrosity of disposition prompted them > | eecrifice a portion of their earnings for the benefic of others, found themselves plunged into debt, and | pressed down with liabilities and self-imposed taxes, which kept them poor for several years. It was then found that the phi!orophical workiag men were idle, diseolute, and willing to live upon the | industry of their fellow mea, who, however, did not continue for a long time to supply the lagy talking men with incomes. The whole ofleit ended in smoke. The frequent associations and combinations in ; England, Germany and France, have always tura- | ed out in the same deplorable way; while every movement has more fully and firmly established the fixed and certain truth, that the individwal principle is the only sound and practical one for the | happiness of the workman and his family. It is under the operation of this principle that labor thrives, that industry becomes \urgely remunera- tive, and that superior skill and feithful workman- hip result in superior sucecss and happiness. It | is fully proved, by the history of the trades in Eng- lend and here, that the only way to promote general individual success, is to keep aloof from | those associations which have introduced idleness, waste of time, discontent, and even debauchery; and those foreigners who have attempted to estab- | lish such .@ state of things in this country, by in- troducing associations here which are copies of | those which are even a curse to labor in Europe, exhibit a strange ignorance of our institutions, and of the benefits which attend our well-directed labor under their benign influence. All our weal- thiest men have sprung into seats of ease and in- dependence by the sweet labor that is always rewarded in this country. They have slowly, but yet surely, arisen to their enviable position, by re. cognising the individual principle of industry and integrity, the obeervation of which has led to such practical and fruitful results. We think it will teke a great deal more sophistry, and a great many more foreigners, with crude notions upon the rights of labor, to overturn the array of myriads of facts which speak against associations, and in fayor of individual and independent labor. The sequel will prove all. Tne Late Jonny Newiaxo Marrit.—This very remarkable man recently died at Mobile. Our re- collections of him, extend as far back as the time when he was a tailor in this city—a calling that he soon gave up, as beneath his aspirations. Finding | that he had a “soul above buttons”—an immortal soul—Meffit joined the Methodist church, and soon became a bright light in the darkness of sin and error. We heard him at the Methodist church in Bromfield street, Boston, in the early part of his career, when the whole city of notions hung upon his lips. The excitement caused by his preaching was immense. The church was crowded, when- ever he was to speak, and the style of his elo- quence waasuch as to captivate the imagination of the young. He had evidently etudied the style of the celebrated Whitfield, whose pulpit triumphs once created a great sensation throughout this— country, es well as in England. Eminently thea- tncal manner, hi8 gestures were often supremely ludicrous. Sometimes he would waive the big H. Sedley Smith, of Boston; the latter, the stage dresses Mr. Suith os the outhor of “ The Drank- ard, or the Fulien Saved,” and encloses to him a sum of money, to which the letter thus replies:— Boston Museum, bareh 4, 1850.

Now what are the facts in the case? The afore- | nemed pley was written by Mr. William Comstock, ; of this city, for Mr. Kimball, proprietor of the Bos- ton Mores, and an alderman of the modern Athens. Mr. Cometoek received fifty dollars for his labor, which contributed something towards the support of his wife and four young children, while the Bos- | ton Museum realized, it is presumed, about twenty thousand dollars by its production. Mr. Smith, in order to suit one of the charaeters to his own Listrionic stature, altered the text of the gifted au- thor, and now claims the authorship, on the ground of taking away some part of the enginal work, and of adding others, while any judge of Mr. Cometoek’s style can readily perceive his own masterly hand ia almost every scene. It was not enough to give the author only fifty dollars for his work, which filled a dramatic treasury fer a whole year in Beston, and for one hundred nights ia Phi- | ladelphia, but he has been obliged to submit 10 a wholesale Galphinism of his rights. ‘We presume that this will be news to Mr. Bar- num, whose liberality seems to have been misap- plied im the case, and that he will not conseat to bea party to any such proceeding. Meanwhile, we should be happy to hear how the modest author locks upon this curious transaction. Can he throw any lig! a pow it? Has he any more plays to be cooked galphinized in a similar way ? The Itatian Opera Company. The Astor Place Opera House was brilliantly thronged last night. It was the first appearance of the troupe since their return from Boston, where they have met ‘the success to which their merits entitle them. The opera represented last night, was “Lueresia Borgia,” one of the most popular productions of tl odern Italian school, abounding in dramatic effects, and crowded with brillient and pleasing melodies. The principal scenes furnish opportunities for great vocal talent, and admirably were these rendered by Signora Bosio, snd Signori Salvi and Marini. The banquet song of Signora Vielti was also given with considerable skill, and elicited an encore. The enthusiasm of the suditory was wrought to a high pitch through- out the performance of the opera, and the whcle mass of fashion, wit, intelligence and beauty joined in « general tribute of admiration of the voca- lists. The part of Gennaro, by Salvi, was inimitably | sustained throughout. His opening solo was given with the most finished expression, and in the slosing scene he wan magnificently effective, as was, also, Sig- nora Bosio, whose vocalization was truthfal and brit. | Mant. * The next performance will be om Wednesday eve- ning, when the favorite opera of “ Norma’ will be pre- sented, and another fashionable house way be expected. The public are now fully alive to the entertainments at ‘their command. Intelligence. The Case of One.

His figures | of speech were bold, forcible and sometimes curi- ous, well calculated to inflame the passions, and to keep the imagination awake to many things extra. neous to his subject. In many respects, he was formed for a popular orator. His manners were i pleasing, his face was agreeable, and his dress | such, as established for him a reputation for taste, and a perfect knowledge of the tayloring business. It was while he was thus awaking the slumber- ers in Boston, that Mr. Joseph T. Buckingham, then the independent but unpopular editor of The New England Galaxy, seized upon some of the pri- vate exhortations and manners of Maffit, to show the world tht “all is not gold that glitters.” A li- | bel suit was the consequence, and Mr. Buckingham, who had been condemned asa villainous libeller, | but who was upright and honest in his intentions, came out of the ordeal with great suecess. His talenta, ae well as those of Maflit, were acknow- ledged, and eubsequent events fully proved that even his judgment was not much at fault with re- spect to Meffit’s general characteristics. At all events, Mr. Buckingham, who did not relish a tuilor, turned parson, “ cooked his goose,” 0 far as | Boston was concerned, and the preacher never ex- erted nich influence in that city, after the expo- | sure of his follies in that region. Secon after. Mr. Maffit asp) for literary heroism, and commenced the publication of a magazine in thir city. In this work, he aimed to imitate, if not | to surpass, the celebrated stories in the “ Diary of a | Physician ;” and the style of his productions fally | showed that his grand purpose was to affect the fe- } male portion of the community.
