"The trial of one of those cases of homicide with the knife—which have ot late become so frequent in our city—eccupied the Court of Oyer and Ter miner yesterday, from ten o'clock in the morning until ten at night, when it resulted in a verdict of guilty of murder. The prisoner, James Sullivan, was indicted for the murder of Edward Smith, a | fellow lodger. The transaction arose out of the juterference of Smith in a qaarrel between Sullivan ‘and his wife, which was induced by the intem. perance of the husband. The circumstances of this | case afford ample and painful illustrations of the fatal consequences occasioned by the extravagant indulgence in intoxicating drinks. This is the second capita! conviction during the week. The Prisoners will be sentenced on Saturday. ‘The examination of the parties concerned in the Mate negro outrages in Pennsylvania," was com- menced at Lancaster, yesterday. An able array of Jegal talent has been engaged on both sides, aad the greatest excitement prevails among the people, 0 learn what will be the finale of the affair. Tho attorney for the prosecution, in his opening speech, took strong grounds in favor of indicting the pri- poners for treason. A heart-rending account has reached us of the ex- plosion of the steamer James Jackson, on the Ohio river, by which some twenty persons were instantly killed, ani between twenty-‘ive and thirty others awfully scalded. It is said that the engincer of the boat, who was unhurt, immediately jumped overboard, swam ashore, and concealed himeelf in the woods. It is to be hoped that the law wil) speedily overtake and mete out justice to this fol low, through whose probable wanton neglect so many persons have been either killed outright, or else horribly maimed for |i We continue to receive, from all parts of the world, particulars of serious marine disasters, of * which there have been an immense number during the present year. Further accounts of damages sustained by veseels during the late storm, will be found under the telegraphic head. Late news from Northera Mexico gives far- ther evidence of a feeling of diveontent with the government. A declaration in favor of General Satta Apna, in Guanajuato, looks as if Mexico was sbout to undergo another series of interna! troubles. ‘The first concert of Catherine Hayes, last night, ‘was completely triumphant. Never has there been more enthusiasm displayed on any occasion. The ‘vocalist was encored in every song, and inspired au audicace of over four thousaad persons with irre- pressible delight. Augustus Braham made a very excellent impression, and Herr Mengis, also, was eroored and well received. Bertueca Maretaek sus- teined her high reputation as a harpist in two bril- Mant pieces—and there seems a prospect of an enthusiasm more general than that which has beea excited by ether great vocal ‘The clerical and lay representatives of the Pro- Yestant Episcopal Church in the diocess of New YVerk, will meet in annual convention, at St. John’s Chapel, in this city, this morning, for the transac- tion of business.

By the arrival of the United States mail steam- ship Wasbington, at this port, we have received dates to the 10th inst., the vessel having left South- smpton on that day. The details of the news will be found in our columns, which contain some points of considerable interest, connected with European topics. There has been no change in the cotton market, and the corn and flour markets are quite inactive, so far as the foreign supply is concerned. ‘The loss of several vessels on the 7th and Sth of the month, is noticed by the Unglish journals, which furnish, also, a very intevesting narrative of the first discoveries made of the traces of the Arctic Expedition of Sir John Franklin. Dr Kane, the surgeon of the United States expedition ia search of the missing adventurer, has transmitted to England the first account of the discoveries made —the character of which will be ascertained by his letter, which we have copied to day. The safety of Sir Jobn Franklin's ships, up to their first winter quarters, in 1546, seems to be ostablished by the discoverics which have been reported, and a stimu- Jus seems to have been given to the searching ex peditions which will result, probably, in further news from the icy regions of the north, respecting the fate of the original expedition, in which the intelli- gent people of every country take a deep interest There has appeared in the London Times, a let ter addressed by the Spanish Miaister in London, to that journal, and, consurrent with this document, is @ leading editorial. Senor Don Navier de Isturiz denice firmly and decidedly that the bodies of the fifty prisoners shot at Havana were mutilated— but, as condsmations of these barbarities Lave been received here, the communication of the Spanish Minister can only be regarded as a ploa for bis go- vernment, and made before he was thoroughly informed of the facts. Gonse-uently, the publica- tion of the letter must be deemed, in every sense, premature. The London Times very generously and unstintedly recommends that the assistance of the British government should be given to the go- Vernment of the United States, enga; ia maia- taining ite public faith; but we do not learn th this kind suggertion has yet beon acted upon by th British cabinet.

Their subsequent performances, however, were more satisfactory. Herr Menzis was warmly applauded for his execution of “11 Bivacco,” and was enthusiastically ensored for his Swiss song, the “yodel’ of which captivated a large proportion of the audierce, Augustus Braham, also, wes encored in Baife’s song, “ In this Vld Cbair,” which he executed with a great deal of tenderness of expression, and with much finish of style, confirming our first impressions of his talents and accomplishments, as exhibited at the rehearsal on Monday. Both of these vocalists are enti- tled to the estecin of the public; and, when they have had an opportunity of understanding the of our audiences, we do not doubt that they wil! add largely to the honors which they have already gained. The performances on the harp, by Bertucca Maretzek, were admirable. On the appearance of the lady she was greeted with a storm of app!ause, which testified to her popularity, and though the heat of the room affected one of the strings of the instrument £0 as to deley the performance of the lively composition of Parish Alvars, yet the ease and grace with which the jady restored it, was warmly appreciated, and plaudits resounded from every part of the house at the exeou- tion of. the musie. The “Nocturne Espagnole,” by Labarre, too, was most beautifully porformed, and was quite @ feature of the entertainment. Of the performances of Catherine Hayes, concerning which so much has been expected—conceraing which #0 many different opinions bad been expressed before hand according to the phraseology of certain journalists we have only to say that there has been little enough said cf the triumph of one who has taken so high a position, in the face of great prejudices in favor of others. When she came before the audience, dressed in a besutifully arranged white robe, of which the pub- lished portraits have given a representation, the torrent of acclamations and plaudits, the showers of bouquets and garlands, the concentrated en- thusiaain of more than four thousand admirers of the gocdness that dwells in greatness, and of the greatnest that dwells in goodness, showed that an intelligent public are not misled by such excitements. Few present had ever heard Catherine Hayes—few seriously doudted that thy should be disappointed. If there were any cf the latter, all doubts were dissipated when she struck the highest note ia the eavatina, aud descended, as by the ekill of something angelic, to the lower register. No Instramert could have been more certain of its purpose, even in the most practised hands. A thrill pervaded the assembly, and from that moment musical sculs measured the might of the artiste. Bat we have no space to enter into details. The scene night was very properly one of almost unii ed enthusiaem; and as every plese suag by herine Hayes was encored, the grace with which she complied with the desire of the public exhibited her | smiability in its true light. ‘The ballads were iuimitably executed. Pach bad its eeparate character and expres: sion, and each told with rew power upom the auditors, Step by step did the great vocalist advance through each part cf the concert, tilishe came to the flasie of “La Soppembula” This was a specimen pf the rapid execution ef the ertiste, and the closing trill satisfied the mest eynical skeptic that we have now an laterpreter of Ee liwi's music. Heweve must pot dwell on this vert triumph of Catherine Hayes. We must confine our. few werds, as mere additional expras-iaa of cpinions already foreshadowed. Her wondertul justness cf intevation—her marvellous factlity in taking ihe most diffcuit intervals— the procs she affords that she is ea. able! te cope with the slightest variations in the pitch of notes—the purity of her methoi, which is not lavish in graces, but which blends these to the style of the musie and the idea of the composer, =the unclouded liquid sweetness of her voice =the fervor of ber expression, which entitles her to be called the Seal cf te combined with all these, Une skill with which bas ehastened and subdued the finest natural powers, make her second to no artiste who has Visited this country since the days of Mallbeea, Far- | ther acquaintance may, and doubtiess will, make knowa more merits, for we cannot but think that the vooal'st bas that electric power which cam startle while it de- lights and captivates.

Quota- tions for ail the leading railroad securities fell off at the first board, and there were indications of a further de- preciation, The decline in Erie Railroad stock is just what we anticipated, and those who are concerned will find that all is not gold that glitters. Outsiders are more cautious in relation to these movements than they have deen heretefore, and have very little confidence in the stock of apy company the management of which are | among the largest speculators in the street. We have frequently alluded to this subject, and are pleased to see that others bave, at last, come to our aid. The failures apnounced yesterday have undoubtedly had an unfavor- able influence upon the stock market, and it is feared that other failufes will soon follow. Tho suspension of the extensive carpet companies at Thompsonville and ‘Tariffville, will prove unfortunate toa large number of operatives, The liabilities will not fali much short of one and a half million of dollars, and the effect upon many houses in this city will, doubtless, be most disastrous.
