Lifle did the undersigned imagine, when he eprosed the recent nomination of John Graham as Distriet Attorney, made at Tammany Hall, and, alse, when he opposed his election before the peo- ple of this city, on the ground of his utter unfitness, beth io temper and capacity, for the office—litue did the undersigned suppose that what he said wewld so soon be justitied and verified by events end ects of a character equally in keeping with the candid ste, his capacity, end his subsequent defeat. @p Saturday morning, about ten o clock, the 9h iwet , us | was walking down Broadway in company with my wife, on reachiog the corner of Broadway ard White street, I wae assailed by a gang of rowdies ond ruffians, beaded by the same Johan @rehem, late candidate for District Attorney, and ais brother, DeWitt Greham—-an employée in the Gestom House, under Hugh Maxwell—and also Charlee K.

We glory in such agitation the ntmost, to prodnee discard between different sections o the country—has always opposed any compromise of the great question whieh has dis- turbed and agitated the nation so long; and when, at length, it was adjusted, through the instru- mentality and patriotism of such men as Clay, Jaes, Webster, Foote, Dickinson, and others, he attempted, in his seat iu the Senate of the United States, to re-open the controverey, and call into renewed action the bitter feelings which, it was ardently hoped, were quieted and pacified. This is a matter of history, and to deny it, and aseert that he and his associates have not sought to re- open the slavery agitation, is to deny what can be incontestibly proved, and what is known to every man, woman, and even child, in the country. We need only point to his movement in the Senate, in regard to slavery in the District of Columbia, after the passage of the compromise measures. What was his object in acting thus? Was it not to throw out the signal of renewed agitation on the subject of slavery? If not, what else was it, when he knew in his soul that the only effect it could have would be to excite and exasperate the South, and to convince them that Northern desire and Northern sentiment were opposed to a cessation of hostilities against the South ? Look, too, at the whig abolition State Conven- tion, which was packed through the management of Thurlow Weed, and his fellow-disorganizer in this city—Horace Greeley, of the Tribwne—with delegates who approved of his course in Congress on the slavery question, end who passed resolu- tions to that effect, while they took ne notice of the patriotic members of Congress who brought about the compromise which Seward opposed to the last moment. That the Syracuse Convention was packed for the purpose of sustaining Seward, and for perpetuating, if possible, his influence in | the State of New York, we think there can be litde doubt. We have attentively watched the career of Weed for a quarter of a century past, and we know the tactics which he uses to accom- plieh hisends. One of them is packing conventions in the manner we have indieated, and another, manufactwing public opinion to suit his parposes. Were not these attempts to renew the slavery agi- tation ? If they were not, we should like to know what meaning can be attached to them. Did not Wm. HM. Seward’s organ—the Albany Evening Journal—oppose the Compromise measures, and has he not denounced the Fugitive Slave bill, and threatened to agitate its repeal? Did not Weed make the question of slavery an issue in the late election, aud has he not pronounced the result a vietory on the side of freedom? If the vision of the Courter and Enowirer is 80 obscared by the private fi dship existing between its editor and William H. Seward, it from seeing all this, we cannot help it is bis misfortune, ond as far as he is concer he is perfeetly welcome to enjoy the hallucination ‘Lhe public, however, take a diflerent view of the The ten thousand mereha’ bankers, fessional men, and mechanics, of this city, who signed the call for the Union and Conetitatioa ing are not of that miad.

This programme may be deceptive, but it is brilliant and plausible. Upon one point, at all events, there can be no disputin, the leading democratic politicians of the cotton States have taken hold cf the ultimatum of seces- sion as a practical thing, end the mass of the party are upon the same track. Northern agitators and Northern aggressions have broken the bonds of fraternity and equality, till Southern leaders regard the mutual interests and necessities of a common Union as obsolete ideas. Conspicuous among the cotton States, in follow- ing up the intimations of Mr. Calheun, that the ad- mission of California would be made the test ques- tion, is the State of Mississippi. That State origi- nated the Nashville Convention, and her Legisla. ture and her Governor have acted fully up to the Nashville platform, of the ultimatum of 36 30. Recent evente, we regret to say, clearly indi- cate the disunion sentiment to be gaining ground. The compromise bills, so far from reconciling con- flicting opinions, and conciliating a peaceful sub- mission, have only aggravated the excitement and widened the rupture. The patriotic course of Gen. Foote in the Senate is universally known, and among the Union men of all parties, is univer- sally admired. He originated the Committee of Thirteen—he was the principal supporter of Mr. Clay, from first te last. And when Southern ultras in the Senate admonished him that he would have to account for bis conduct to the State of Miesissi pi, Gen. Foote replied that he was fully confident of being sustained by nine-tenths of her people. But what is the fect?’ Mr. Dickinson has been received coldly enough by his constituents, when his noble conservative course in the Senate should have commanded the substantial approval of every Umon man, of both parties. But the reception of Mr. Dickinson is consoling and agreeable, com- pared with the return of Gen. Foote to Mississippi. If the one has received the cold shoulder, the other has been met as a public enemy, and publicly de- nounced, by men of his own party, traitor, aad as desecrating his seat in the Senate. He seems to stand alone before the people, in defenee of the adjustment, without sympathy, without support, and without even the ordinary concessions of civility.

The effort was oneot those which dis- tinguish Anna Bishop as at the head of voca- lists im sacred song. The duet between Seguin and Lyster—the latter supplying the place of No- yelli, who did not appear—was well rendered, but the composition is one of the most awkward of Handel's compositions. The over-rated composer has scattered several gems among his works- but his works are pe- dantic, stilted, vulgar, and unwerthy, generally, of the fame they enjoy. His werks are only suited to the days of perrukesand hair powder, high heeled shoes and moeped, petticoats. The offertory piece, executed ] Miss K. De Luce, received much merited applause, ough she needs close practice to become an efficient singer. The eoncert closed with a grand march from Meyerbect’s “ Prophete.” It was a splendid composi- tion, admirably executed, and was encored. Previous to this however, Anna Pishop gratified the popular taste with Mande)’s celebrated “ Bird Song,” with # flute ob- ligato by Siede. It was anticipated that this song would exhibit Anna Bishop’s powers in comparison with thore of Jenny Lind and the greatest inte est pervaded the whole assembly, to listeu to every note. All were repaid. Buch exéeution—such brilliancy—such per- tect command of the tones, as well as the notes of the voice, displayed upom a comporition that redeems Handel of bis many grossand coarse works, have never been surpassed, Other bird songs have been exquisite in their way, but Anna Bishop showed that she is as perfect in’ this style of comporition, as her great compeer in the murical art. The audir nee became ex- cited toam intense degree and an unanimous encore browgbt forth the great vocalist to repest her work of enchantment The same steadiners and firmness of tone were apparent. d the same triumpbant skill wae exbibited.

During the past week there has been about the nsual activity in the stock market, and prices have advanced slowly bat steadily. There appears to be no abate ment in the speculative excitement. and the season is nike of the Dears have been considerably thinned out lately, and thore who have nerve enough to continue sellers short on time, are exceedingly cautious what stock» they fell, ‘There are fancies in the list. which it is porfeotly tafe to well short in qny way, buyers or sellers option on time. while there others no sane man would, in our opinion, dare|sell, without having the stock ‘im hand | for delivery when enlled for such a number of stocks of a fancy character. experi ence evch a rapid improrement in their actual value during & period of speculation, as we have recently noticed. Faucy stock rpeculations have herstotore been the result more of combinations among brokers and a peculiar etate of the money market. than of any favorable change in the conditien of the affairs of any particular company; but this season, the speculative movement bas only kept pace with the boos fue in orease in th ue of the leading stocks for invest ment. During the past three or four months th. has been a greater improvement in the financial affairs ve largely in- creased, and more economy has been exhibited in nditures, Their floating debts have been the payment of exorbitant rates of tnte- rest thus avoided. Various improvements have been je in the system of management, and thus fer every thing appears ratisfactory We have no doubt the rerult will be euch a* to) warrant « con tinuance of the present system. Thejadvance in pri cee realized this season has not been in some instances sogreat asthe actual advance in the yaiue of the stock, and ft is therefore folly to +xpect that, in these cases, there is going to be any falling off in prices ~ Holders are too well posted up relative to the changes which have tak panies, to part with their stocks at prices below thoew now current; and many have fixed their miads upon prices considerably above those now ruling, and will realize them, or retain their stoeks for pert vestment Money is se cheap, fe becoming more difficult. every to find such em- ployment as will give, with perfect safety, four and five per cent per aan This state of things has induerd many, who beve idle capital, to invest it in such stocks as pay large dividends, the market value of which is depreciated. The difference in the rate of interest A is sufficient to offset the risk inourted; and a¢ the supply of capital increases, the demand for the most depreciated stocks upon the market will beeome gteater, Foran illustration of the folly of investing capital in securities where only four and five per sent interest ean be realized, when stocks paying sight and ten per cent ean be purchased below par, it fe only necessary to point tothe Reading Railroad. The in consistency of a railroed stock earning eight per ont on ite par value, selling at thirty per cent diesount, while a State stock, bearing bet six per cent interest, commands » premium of vighteen and twenty per erat. ja too great to be passed lightly over ‘The earnings of the Reading Railroad this year, have deen enormous, and we have eo doubt there will be « surplus after paying a lerge dividend on the old stock The actual groes receipts of the company from ail sources, for ten months, ending September 3, 1559 $1,631.00 ‘Total net earn!

In estimating the ex- penditures in the sbove statement, we have put down. the “working expenses” at forty three per cent, and fer to doing, have adopted the caloulations of reliable ithorities. We are informed that the actual work. ing expenses will not exceed that rate per cent, under any circumstances. According to this calculation, the stock of the Reading Railroad Company is one of the most profitable investments om the market at present prices. At par, it would be more productive than any State stock on the list. This is the view holders take of it, and are, therefore, indifferent about selling. In less than sixty days, a. dividend of four dollars per share will be paid, which. will materially reduce the cost ef shares, after making allowance for the regular rate of interest om the in- vestment. The Norwich and Weroester Railroad stock is somewhat similarly situated. The semi annus Gividend of three per cent, due in January on the par value of the shares, is equal to five per cent on the present price, or equal to ten per cent per annum om the investment, at current quotations. This, there- fore, is one of the best purchases of the day, and holders know it. There is a wide margin for am ad- vance in both of these stocks, and those who are able to carry them will be well paid for so doing. Harlem Railroad stock ie slowly but stvadily advancing in value, and increasing in favor. It is cheap enough at pre- cont priees to attract capitalists; and judging from the monthly increase in the receipts, we should think there was no doubt but that the dividends the company have commenced paying. would be continued. The new sity track will enablethe Company to carry on its local traffic at about one-half the expense for motive power; and oon as the improvements and extension con- templated are made, the earnings will, without doubt, be largely increased. Erie Railread stock, compared with either of the three above named, is the poorest in- vestment of the lot. It is selling in the market tem per cent higher than Reading and nearly twenty per cent bigher than Norwich er Hariem. The Company pe ix per cent interest om par, which is equal te about seven ands half per cent om present prices. It is, therefore, lees prodwotive than either of the other railroad stocks mamed, aud its prospects are by nc means £0 favorable. The cost of the Erie Railroad, at this mement, does not vary much trom twenty millions of dollare; while its gross earnings, this year, will be under sixteen hundred thousand dollars. The Road- ing Railroad cost sixteen milliona of dollars, and ite gross earnings, this year, 1860, from January to Janu- ary. will be nearly two sada balf millions of dollars. We leave it to thore interested to igure up which is the most valuable stock of the two, The formor is selling at reventy-cight and reventy-uine per cent, and the lat- ter is selling at rixty-six and sixty-seven per cent. ‘The former pays three per cent in Janunry, and the latter eight. ‘There are several ciher stocks on the list, the pros- pects of whieh are exceedingly flattering, and the margin for improvement much greater than in those requiring more money to carry. The Morris Canalis one of tbe most prominent of this class have confidence enough in it to purchase at present prices, and ealt it down for a year or two, will find at the end of that time. that afew hundred shares will bes tortune.
