Ingthe policy office, how many different characters may be seen. The minister of the gospol is ae- costed in tones of familiarity by the confirmed roue ; the shameless harlot gazes with unblushing effron- tery on the hitherto modest maiden, and smiles with fiendish delight when she beholds another of her sex in the downward path to ruin; the beard- less youth there meets the professed gambler, and from him learns first how to interpret his dreams, and seleet the * lucky numbe ¢ then becomes familiar with all th he trade ; he is soon an adept in “Bigs addles,” &e., + he is is tiated in all the hellish arts of pigeoning and cheat- ing ; and is, in fact, a confirme ly sinks down into’ the drunkard such is the in ambler, and final- and the thief, for vituble destiny of the policy gambler. How many, alas! how many, now ininates of a prison, trace their ruin to the policy office? From their first entrance therein they date their fall ; then their fate was written, their destiny was sealed. ‘The most unfortunate thing which ean happen to the neophyte is to draw a prize. He is led on, step ie step, thinking there is yet a fortune for him in the wheel, not knowing his chance of Seanity, a second prize is as remote and of as little probability a ip is tor the lightning to strike twico in the same place. That policy gambling leads to crime is evident from the fact that, of the arrests for petit lareeny which are made by the police of this city, on the persons so arrested polic or slips as they are called, are almost invariably found. There is, it appears, such an infatuation attend- ing it, that those engaged in the traftie will resort to any means to obtain money to purchase tickets. Another reason why people should desist from buying tickets, apart from its being unlawful and immoral, is the few, very few eases of persons becom- ing rich in consequence of dealing in polocies, whereas he keepers of the offices, together with the backers or proprietors, who are never purchasers, always become rich, while their dupes are always poor, thus howing that instead of being a fair business trans- :etion the profit is all on one side. The proceeds f the establishments in the Fifth ward are esti- mated at the enormous sum of $1,500 per day, at ‘east four fifths of which is profit. While we dwell more particularly on the evil as practised by the colored people, itis not confined exclusively to them. Unfortunately, it prevails to the greatest extent among the poor of every color and nation ; poverty appears to be the chiet cans for engaging in this species of gambling. The 1 Dutch, and colored portions of our population are those who are mostly addicted to this evil. New York is infested with policy offi are supposed to be between five and six hundred of these establishments in this city. They mostly abound where the poorer classes of people reside ; wherever there are a number of poor families, there you will be sure to find the policy offices, and there the policy dealer, like a human vampii i his nefarious trade. They are found ina in the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, Ninth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Seventeenth Wards. In th Ward alone there are nearly fifty of these sending abroad more misery, entailing greater evils on society, making more pers, on Whom to expend our charities, and_ training more criminals for the prisons and the gallows, than even the nells of Park row. We might startle you with facts of the calamities produced on individuals and families. We might give many instances of the evil effects, many of rhich have come under our own observation; but itis not our province to relate what is already too well known, but to devise, if possible, some pre- ventive for the evil, or to suggest a remedy. The authorities of this city admit that they are powerless to arrest policy gam! ~ The law, while it forbibs the selling of lottery tickets, or ine suring numbers, otherwise called policies, makes it a penal offence, so todo it is inoperative, as it does not afford them sufficient power to stop the evil as long as people will ue it. They may make ar- rests; but unless individuals ean be found who will purchase tickets, and then prosecute the seller to the greatest extent of the law, they can do nothing. 1 win well aware that the idea of being an informer is repugnant to our feelings, and itis considered dis- reputable, bbt those who are earnestly engaged in this work, must be prepared to suffer odium to effeet agreat good. Whoever is willing to undertake this reform, must be persons of unblemished character, who will be unmoved by threats, and sannot be se- duced by bribes. Cannot such be found? Are there not persons in this community who will lend their influence and ‘ote their time and means to accomplish so de- sirable an object? In conclusion, we would recommend to this conven- tion that a standing committee be formed who shall procure legal advice on the subject; if the laws are unavailable, to petition the Legislature forthwith to enact other and more stringent laws, and to prose- cute every one engaged in the business, until every policy oifice in the city is broken up, und if there is no other way, until every keeper ix an inmate of the penitentiary. We would further recommend that the members of this convention pledge themselves to use wee their efforts to induce those now engaged in poli layin to abstain forthwith. See As hes New York, March 19, 1851. At the end of the porugraph concluding with the » military commanders,” there was great laughter. Mr. Ronent Jonxsox, who made the speech on temper- ance, said he did not want the Irieh and Dutch mention- cd specially in the report. Ie moved that Americans be added.” (ifear. hear.) Mr. Witsow suggested that Dutch, and Irish. and color. ed, should be strieken out, and ~Americans’ substituted, for they were all Americans, cither native or adopted. Mr. Brut seid he had made considerable inquiries on the subject. and he found it to be a fact, that there were fewer native Americans than foreigners. in proportion to the population, who dealt in lottery policies. Mr. Powens, a trac dark son of Africa, without a taint of white blood in him, said—We are loading the car too much by attempting to reform all the world—Irish, and Dutch, and all that the Lord ever made, (Great laugh. after that is ac. , we will want a little vomise you, Tt be time enough to take hold of the Duteh and dls Mr. Dowsrea. the younger—who eaters for partles who want best pickied “oysters and other dainties—Policy gambling is a greater evil than intemperance, for the colored population are more addicted to it. I think certsin gentlemen have a right to express_an opinion on it—those, I mean, who op- posed the pledge in reference to the bank, There «other gambling. too, besides policy gambling—places to which admission could be obtsined by little private knocks at 2o'clock in the morning. There is no neces- sity for being mealy-mouthed. Ax a people, we are ai. Micted to policy dealing, and that is the main cause why we are as we ate. If we would rise, we mast cut away the weights that hold us down—and the ehief of these is poliey-dealing. Tem sorry that some who have teken an active part in this convention are en in policies, 1 think Mr. Hamiiton, Mr. Zuille, and Mr. Powers, owe it to themselves to say something on the subject. Here there were eries for the question, when the mo- tions to alter the report in reference to the Trish aud Dutch were voted down. The question then came up as to the adoption of the report, when Mr. Haste: tow said :—As my name is first on the list of Mr. Downing. I sw 1 must be the first to respond to his call, I wanted to know something of the modus ope- rend of policy gambling, and to see why it was wrong. I don't know much about it. From the remarks of my friend, Mr. Downing. people might be led to infer that I was engaged in that view Mr. Dowstwo—No, not in so low a vice. Mr. Hasti.roy—I have heard of a class leader who em- jlcyed the money of « certain church in policy gamb- ling: and 1 have seen him, next day, go down to that lurch, with a great big hymn book under his arm, to vert sinners. (Roars of laughter, and grinning of ows of lyoey set in darkest ebony.) I said to myself, merefful Fathor, as this te the case with him, how man; do the same thing? The minister of the same chure has a daughter who deats in potiey gambling, and I won. dered if her father sent her to the policy office; and I thought what kind of a church that must be, when the heads of it wore policy gamblers. (Great applause.) It hos been said that most of the crime in the city is pro- duecd by policy gambling. and the Chairman of the com. mittee appointed on secint relations has stated that ninetcen out of every twenty of the eriminals arrested were found with potiey tickets in their pockets. Ile did not say they were colored persons, If this «yrtem has produced all of these erimes—— Dr. MeCuns SwitH—I have said nothing about policy gambling being the source of crime.

Turnure —Plaintiff in this case is « grocer and ship chandier, re- siding in South street, and the defendant is a pilot of this port. It appeared that they had been formerly on terms of intimacy, and that the piaintiff had rented pre- mises from the defendant. During the last election, the slanderous expressions are alleged to have been used Mr. Benyon was a condidate for Assembly, and it is con- tended that Mr. Turnure charged him with having pass- ed om him @ bad or counterfeit $20 bill. ‘The defendant denies having uttered the slanderous words set forth in the declaration A witness named Farrington, in whose store the - derous words are alleged to have been spoken, was ex- amined by Mr, Leveredge, and deposed to the converas- tion; there were three or four persons present; Mr. Tur- nure said that Mr. Runyon had paid him the $20 bill for rent; that he had put it by in his burean for a couple of months, and. on sending to the bank. it was discovered to be bad; Turnure then said he brought it to Runyon, and he took it back pretty quick; witness is not certain boner the defendant said it was a bad or a counterfeit sa Another witness, named Mather. gave similar testi- mony. and edded that Turnure said to him that Runyon knew very well the bill was bad when he gave it to him; witness does not know that any other persons then pre- sent heard that part of defendant's observation. ‘On cross-examination by Mr. Jas, T. Brady, he said that Mr. Runyon had been actually nominated for As- sembly; did not know that Mr. Turnure had been a caa- didate. Q.—How was his name brought up?

Witness—T wae naked if 1 would su Runyon, and Traid I would; Turnure was asked if he would #upport him, and he said he would not. Q.—Did not Farrington say Runyon was a hell of a fellow for the Assembly? (Loud laughter.) A.—1 don't recollect; when Turnure said he would not support Runyon, he gave as his reason that he had passed on him # counterfeit bill; there was no statement that the bank was broken, but I am sure the word “counterfeit” was used; Turnure sald to me that Runyon knew very well the bili was bad when ho gave it to him; [ yoted for Runyon notwithstanding this slanderous expression; he did not suffer anything as far a# Twas concerned; I don't think any one, except a Mr. Parsons, could have heard the expression made to. me by pone 9 dere Runyon knew the bill was bad when he passed it Re-examined.—Thit charge was the subject of conver- sation out of doors afterwards Some further testimony was given, and the jury rea- dered a verdict for plaintiff for $59.

The A fine Tantr or tin Grearest Tiors sy 195], 1352, AND 1858.—The French Nautical Ahnanac ( natssance des Temps) contains the following table of ¢ greatest tides, or those which equal or exceed the “Unit of Altitude,” that will occur during these three years, and which some of our readers may find useful. The “ Unit of Altitude,” or 1.00 at any place, can be ascertained onlyeby a long series of observations. It is the rise from the mean level of the sea, or half the rise from low water of that tide which occurs about 24 hours after any new or full moon, the sun and moon then having no declination, and being at their mean distance from the earth. From a considerable number of observations made ia this city, several years since, it appeared that the rise of such a tide water, was here 11.25 feet, and, conse Unit of Altitude is 5.62 fect. And it is sup- posed that it varies but little from this in any part of Massachusetts Bay, and along the coast of Ni Hampshire and Maine, as far as the Penobscot. This quantity (5.68 feet) multiptiod by those in the following tablo will give the height of the greatest tides, which will occur here, in the course of this and of the two next years, independent of tho effect of wind, without the nid of whieh it very seldom hap- pens that any rise of the sea causes damage, Thus the rise of the tide wt the recent full on the 17th, aad which reached us on the ISth, was 6 feet 5 inches, or from low water, 12 feot 10 inches—that of Sept. 25 26th, 1851, will be about an inch more, and that of April bth, 6th, 1852, the highest of all in the three years, 5 feet 6 inches and thirteen feet. By the fol i nm table it also appears that although there are in each year 25 new and full moons altogether, yet of the tides which follow, but seven of them are pe ood to the unit of altitude, and a large part ofthe 21, in the course of the three years, will ocour within about six weeks ‘next before or after the vernal aud autumnal equinox. Thus, of the 21, three happen in each of the months of February, March, April, October and November, two in May an ember, andone in January and August; but in December, June and Ju not even one. ‘There is usually also, a differen h is some- times very great betwen the t of spr tides in the same month; thus the altitude of th: at tho next new moon on the Ist instant, will be but 0.28 or 0.25 lower than on Tuesday laet, whieh is equal to 1f. 5 in the rive from the meaa level, or to 25. 10 from low wate 851.

J Sovrimnes Trane ry Bosrox.—The rashness of a few fanaties, who somehow succeed in making some impression abroad, haye from time to time, very se- riously injured Boston character, morals, and trade. The recent fugitive slave excitement is said to have fairly disgusted many traders of tho South to such an extent that they have abandonod the Boston market. These traders have put thousands of dol- lars annually into our merchants’ pockets, and would continue to do so if it was not for the disgust- ing folly and recklessness of a small band of abolix tionists among us, whose real worth and charactor is lows than a cipher. Our Southern traders should understand that the ‘ople of Boston—its intelli- once, charactor, worth— have no sort 0 pa or love, or even reg for this class of hot aad ad- die heads. Touehing this and other matters, the Traveller saye—Though some have feared that the trode of Boston with the South would suffer in con- sequence of recent movements, and though to some extent such has been and will be the ease, yet the difference as yet, so far as shippers ean porecive, is searvely perceptible.

These papers contain several imortant documenta, ef which we give translations below. A few words in explanation, will show the importance of the proceedings of Mr. Chatfield, the English Consul, as affecting this country. Since tho dis- covery of the riches of California, the settlement of Oregon, and the probability that the route to India and China will be by the way tothe West, tho claim of England to large tracts of land ia Central America, ay the protector of the rights of the King of the Mosquitoes (which had before received but little attention) bave been jealously scrutinized. The Mosquitoes are am Lodian tribe, with whom England has nin alliance for a tos riod of years. It will be seen that Mr. Ghattield now claims, as bee longing to the Mosquito kingdom, the territory to within a few miles west of the city of Truxillo. ‘We have also translated the proclamation of the G vernor of Honduras, giving his reasons fo the State of San Salvador in the war with Cruate- mala, the latter State having formed a favorable treaty with Great Britain:— PROCLAMATION.

An armed mediation was also attempted, and it was equally unsuccessful.

The following letter of Mr. Chatfield to the ernment of Honduras, making demands in the name of the King of Mosquito, to the extent of half the territory of Honduras, is introduced by an artich the Boletin, headed “ Chatfield’s Usurpa- tions,” trom which article we extract the following paragraphs:— “It is a long time tficld, has been accustomed to present his 1 mations in a manner so improper and disre spe: that governments have complained with reason ust him; but we have never seen, pre- time, that he who pretends something, makes of his pretension a law, and appropriates to himself by force of that same thing, what he hag sesognions and confeszed before not belong to jimn.”” After stating that the demand ofauch a large area of land is irregular, even though made in the name of England, the writer, continues:— “The government of San Salvador to cope with» great nation.

Several watchmen went to the house with Warren, found part of the stolen money, and arrested all the partics in the house, including Mrs. Edgerton, a man named Frederick Wilson, and his wife, Amanda ©.
