oumstances ; and we, therefore, proceed to test the truth of what we have alleged, in the only manner in which it can be done, without pointing suspicion eneral George P. Morris is the personal frien of Willis—the So proprietor of the Home Journal, and co-editor with him in the conduct of that paper. He suffered Willis to publish, in their joint paper, an assault on my private character when I was in Europe and inospable of defending myself, which is admitted to be, by those who have read it, one of the most infamous ‘assaults which ever found its way into an American newspaper Being thus, in Jaw and infact, a party to that disgraceful publica- tion, (which, however, we have never seen,) he can- not be suspected of any friendship for us; while it is morally certain, that if practicable, he will relieve Willis from the charge we have made. Now, let Willis send General Morris to us, and we will confront the General with the party who was pre- sent when Willis delivered us the letters of his vie- tim. We will place before him the identical pack- age of letters, superscribed. in Willis’ handwriting, to “Col. Webb.” We will prove their identity ; and will place in his hands, for his perusal, the let- ter written to Willis by his victim, after her seduc- tion. All this can be done with impunity without Gene- ral Morris’ having the slightest cue to the identity of the writer of the letter; who, if living, will re- jeer that justice has thus overtaken her betrayer. he feels, we doubt not, beyond the reach of sus- picion; and although she may regret that other unfortunates have suffered suspicion from her fault, she will do us the justice to believe that we never yoae nae La. ed thi: mye x we ad not own that, by no possibility, could she suffer. Our propesition to make Willis’ friend and co- yortuen the umpire in this matter, must be conceded be liberal, even by those who can palliate his worthless assault upon us, if such there be. But we wish it to be distinctly understood that we an- nex one condition, and one condition only, to its ac- ceptance, It is, that after the investigation which We invite, and before leaving our office, General Morris shall put in writing his report, and leave with us a copy for publication, which we pledge eurselves to Jay before the public on the following morning, affect whom it may. We have nothing more to say on this subject, except to express our sympathy for the ‘ respect- able mariied Jady in a neighboring State,” if there such a person, whom Willis has so recklessly as- sail and upon whom he has endeavored to affix suspicion of dishonor. Let us charitably hove that the whole story is as much the cing of his ima- gination asis that part of it which relates to us. And this is more than probable; because, were there in existence such a person as he describes, ap- prehensions of a legal tribunal, and the wrath of an outraged husband, would have effectually pre- vented Willis thus alluding to her.

THE STATEN ISLAND FERRY. The report of the Board of Assistants and of the Board of Aldermen, in relation to the Staten Island Ferry, and in favor of granting @ lease of said ferry to Cornelius Van- derbilt, was called up. It was moved that both reports de laid on the table and printed. The Alderman of the Third said, the effect of that would be to lay the question over to the September session, and in the meantime, to leave the Staten Island people with- out a ferry. Alderman Miiien moved that the resolution of the Law Committee of this Board be adopted, instead of the report tnd resolution of the Board of Assistants. ‘The Alderman of the Third said he wished the question should now be set at rest. The resolutions of our com- mittee provide that be shall have s lease for $3.00. Now, I woud ask, why should we give him a lease for $1,000, when other gentlemen are willing to give this sum for It If we do not bind down thi« man, and leave him no loop- hole to get out of he will drag us into seenes of litigation that we cannot easily get out of. Now, the condition is, that he must make @ full settlement for all the losses they (the Corporaticn.) have sustained by him for the Last five years; and sow that we have got him inte our hands, let us make him pay back the expenses which he has put us to for five or #ix years. Alderman Dovcs said he approved of the report of the committee of the Board. There was nothing asked of Mr. Vanderbilt but what was asked of every other ferry in this city. Now. ifhe comes in,and like other men, takes a lease, let him doro—the proposition is a perfect- Jy fair one. It rebukes him, and for that reason I will vote for it. Alderman Krity said Mr. Vanderbilt, to say the least of it, treated the city very cavalierly, I consider, mid he, that the refusal of neglect to. take the lease fa 1813 puts an end to his claim ; 1am therefore of opiaioa that he had no rights, and further think he deserves no courtesy from the Corporation. He has, in conseq uence of his wealth, treated them with contempt; and not only that, but he kept the people of Staten Isiand in purga- tory; und now because the people of Staten Island have taken the matter into their own bands, he comes in with an offer to the Corporation. I teust therefore that the repert and resolution of this Bokrd will be adopted. Alderman Miuixn said he was inclined to think the thing was not yet terminated, and he was fur- User inelfned to think it would not terminate uutil the end of nine years, Alderman Britton said there was a warfare between them since 1445. Both boards were at variance with each other on the subject. What, he would ask, would in by the present report ’ He wished « conference es other board. Alderman Stuntevast moved to adopt the report and rerolution, which was to the following effect —That a lease rhould be granted to Mr. Vanderbilt. at $5,000 0 year, on condition that be came in and paid up all ar- Tears claimed by the Corporation. ‘The Alderman of the Third ward said he wished to wave it to the diseretion of the Comptroller to settle the question with him. and in ten days after the settlement is concluded. let him the ¢ inend take his lease, I t that we shall hold the rod over this man and com- pel bim, if he does take thie lease, to take it as other men are obli to do. Alderman Brirtos moved « conference with the Board Of Assistan’ Alderman Haws said it was asserted by rome that the solution of the question come to by the Board of Assist- apts was satisfactory Alderman of the Third—It is not. ‘The question on the Alderman of the ‘Third’s motion was then put, Fourteen having voted in the affirm- ative and five in the negative, the report and resolu- tien this Board was ad: |, and the report of the Board of Assistants was non-coneurred in.

Among the remonstrants are the officers of the Bank of the Republic. Arsistant Alderman McCantny said he hoped the re- solution of the committee would not be adopted. fe said he had taken pains to inquire into this matter, and had found that uo one but the owners of buildings from No. 6 to No. 18, cared anything about the widen- He found a number of names of ex-Mayors and dents of Banks, with but one name of a private in- dividual, This individual was a Mr. Lemon; and if he goes into this he is like to get squeezed.

All were heard that wished to be heard, and at the conclusion the committee were unanimously in favor of @ concurrence. Objection hud been made by the remonstrants, and able counsel had been employed by the parties in interest, and the whole matter been fully canvassed. The owners of the property taken would be amply paid for such property.

Assistant Alderman Smitn offered an amendment, pro- viding for the passage of the resolution in favor of the widening, but with the proviso, “If the owners of the old church property cede to the city, without compen- sation, the ground in frent of their buildings.” ‘The amendment was lost by a vote of 6 to 15.

Assistant Alderman Eowaxos said the circumstances in relation to the Property at the different ends of the block were not the same. In one instance, the lots were unoccupied, while in the other there were buildings which had already been leased for a term of years. ‘The amendment was lost.

Epwanns suid the names of the petitioners were few, but that many more names could be procured, if the ocoupants of the many tenements could be consulted. ‘The ground on Stenton street was almost all covered over with tenanted buildings. and it was really requisite for the preservation of health that the sewer should be a Asst, Ald. Bann hoped the report would be adopted. He should vote for it. for the very reasons urged against it by the gentleman from the Seventeenth ward, who said that much of the property was occupied by poor men.
