With the exception of an outline of the interviow between Henry Clay and Kossuth, the telegraphic intelligence received from Washington, yesterday, is of but little consequence After the disposal of some minor business, the Senate took up the ill- advised, unnecessary and out-of-placse resolution of ex: Senator Foote, declaring the compromise mea- sures a final settlement of all difliculties betweon the North and South. Senator Downs, of Louisi- ana, made a speech on the subject, in which he de- clared that the adjastment measures had effected the object for which they were intended, and that there was now no cause left for excitement. If this is really the opinion of a majority of Senators—and nearly all those who have spoken on the question declare that it is—why do they endeavor to renew the slavery agitation by meddling with the compro- mise? It has done its work, and should be permitted toxest. But nowthat the subject has been again thruet before the Senate, that body should dispose of it as speedily and quietly as possible, and avoid, as fer as possible, arousing public feeling by making lopg personal and vindictive speeches. Tho House was not in session Late advices from the South state that Gon. Caravajal, the leader of the revolutionists in Northern Mexico, has been arrested by Gen. Har- ney, fora violation of the neutrality laws, he hav- ing attempted to organize in\Texas, an armed ex- pedition against a neighboring country. Tais will probably check the operations of the revolutionists for some time. Their movements appear to have been ill-planned, ill-dirested, and ill-starred, from the commencement, and it is probably well for them tbat their leader has been captured. Much damage was recently done in the neighbor- hood of Baton Rouge, La., by @ terrific storm. Many buildings were blown down, and a number of negroes were killed A girl, pamed Sarah Gerber, was yesterday con- vieted, in Philadelphia, of having caused the death of an infant, by compelling it to swallow pins and needles The prisoner, who is only thirteen years of age, was found guilty of murder in the second degree, and wili be sent to the penitentiary. For a piquant sketch of the eariosities at the State Capitol, see the letter of our Albany corres pondent. Neither brarch of the Legislature was in session yesterdny. Clay and Kossuth. iMeretofore we have had intimations that Mr. Clay bad frequently declared, in private coa- verrationus, against the doctrines of Kossuth in relation to intervention, and that he would take the earliest possible opportunity that his health would permit, to express the same senti- ments in the face of the nation, and make his last, —perbaps his dying speech—warning the couatry against all those doctrines that would embroil us in the affairs of Europe. These intimations of Mr. s opinion have reosived fresh assurance from the accounts we have received, describing a recent interview between these two distinguished men. The Sage of Ashland made quitea speech, decided- Jy in opposition to those doctrines, and Kossuth re- plied, it seems, without dizcussing them to any extent ‘This view of the uestion, taken by Mr. Clay, is just woat might have been expected by everybody who knew the conservative character of his princi- ples, and the practical nature of his statesmanship. No doubt, with many other persons in this coun- LY, it w the most earnest desire of his heart te see the nations of Europe in the full en- joyment of the same freedom that we possess en this continent He sympathizes with the cause of liberty everywhere; but he does not attempt to humbug Kossuth by holding out to him the idea of practical intervention to the extent of war, which the agitators and mob orators of the democratic and whig parties of this city put forth during the recent holiday pastimes. If there ever had been a possibility of France, England, and the United States, concurring together to issue a bold and decided declaration against Russian encroach- ments and Cossack despotism in the Old World, we might bave entertained the proposition of inter vention as feasible, because such a combined move. ment, made by the three greatest powers of tho world, would have had an effect upon the policy of the Czar, arresting the stealthy progress of his O for the gradual absorption of the | ar ag nope ae “ | for ene body are elected by the people, and are whole continent of Europe in kis own mighty em- pire. Such en operation would not only check his advances, but prevent all recurrence to war. But matters have been very differently disposed of ty sudden changes in France, whose unfavorable influ- ence hag been felt by the friends of freedom through- out all Europe. The governments of the Old World are bound together by a system of iron despotism of the strongest character, and it becomes the duty of the people of the United States to take care of themselves and their future, in the face of such a sudden and menacing combination of these despotic powers Kossuth, however, seems not to give up the ship. He lives in political agitation, interspersed with the pleasing but impossible idea of Hungarian inde- pendence. Lola Montes lives in the same species of agitation— qurrelling and fighting with her agents and lovers—but still indulging in the delightful future of returning to the halls of Bavaria, a counters and a prime minister. Kossuth is now going West—following the steps of Kinkel; and for the next few months the whole of the upper valley of the Miseissippi— prairies and all—will be | lighted up in one brilliant blaze of patriotism, by these two energetic, untiring, and everlasting pa- triots. Foreign intervention, leading to a war with Russia and Austria, is the grand idea of both Kin- kel and Kossuth; and from appearances, it ia highly probable that the same mania will run into the Presidential politics of the couotry, and affect the action of the two party conventions. Kossuth, it is stated, has declared that the people of the United States are in favor of iotervention, and would go to war, to back it, to morrow morning at suprise. He will therefore make his appeal from the government and from Congress to the poople He expcets to effect a complete change in the poll- | pambueo. tics of this country—turning out the present Execu- ttve and the members of both houses of the na- tional legislature, and helping to elect in their stead an intervention President and an interventi Congress. ‘Well, this is a free country; and while his ex-as- sociate in New York is endeavoring to agitate for the blacks of this continent, it is only fair that Kossuth should agitate for the whites of the old ‘Tne Commissiongrs oF Emigration—Tag [N- VESTIGATION OF THR COMMITTEE OF THE Leais- LATURE.—Governor Hunt takes occasion in his mee sage to laud the Commissioners of Emigration as paragons of perfection. His Excellency seems to admire men, and measures, and things in general; aud it is not very wonderful, therefore, that he should give a puff to the creatures of his own ap- pointment. If he did not, who would? By the statistics of emigration from Europe to this port, which we published on the first day of the present year, it appears that the numbers have vastly increased during the last year, and that the aggregate amounted to the enormous figure of 289,601—considerably moro than half the population of the city. This tremendous increase renders attention to the affairs of the Commission- ers of Emigration more necessary than ever, for two reasons. The first reason is, that the people of this city, and ofthis State, ought to be satisfied that proper care is taken of the sick and destitute emigrants, jor whose support head-money is paid by the ship- owners, on the part of every passenger who land:— paid, in point of fact, by the passengers them- selves, the price of their passage being increased in the same ratio. Itis of great importance to the character of our people, and their institutions, that justice is done to the poor, the sick, andthe igno- rant of this vast emigrant population, by affording them such temporary relief as their condition re- quires—by enforcing humane treatment from every official in every department of the institution, from the health officer down to the hospital nurse on Staten Island; from the warden on Ward's Island down to the lowest officer there; and from the superintendent in the Canal street asylum down to the humblest employée in that establishment ; and, finally, by procuring employ- ment for the emigrants through a well organized system, protecting them from fraud, and forward- ing them to their destination as speedily as possible. This last duty is the more important, because, if the emfgrant should happen to have money with him, the price of his board is deducted from it, and, perhaps, swallows up his all. Various laws have been passed for the prevention of fraud in the case of emigrants, and for enforeing the care of the Com- missioners of Emigration, but, hitherto, with very little effect ; and why! Because the right kind of men have never been appointed to office, and no re- gard has ever beon paid to their qualifications. They have been, for the most part, intriguing politicians and sharks, who, professing great humanity and great patriotism, and some of them enforcing their claims by the fact that they were of the same country or descent as the emi- grants, have had their eye all the time upon the contracts for food and clothing, &s., which they managed to procure for their brothers, or partners, or friends, at a far higher rate and of a far inferior quality than others were ready to furnish, if fair competition were only opened to the public. Taus it may be seen that a vast field is open for pecula tion, speculation, corruption, and fraud. This leads us to the second reason why the atten- tion of the press and of the people should be turned, at this time, to the affairs of the Commissioners of Emigration. It is to see that the immense funds that necessarily pass through their hands, are pro- perly administered. f the funds are squandered, or misapplied, many of the emigrants who lare claims for relief must be repulsed, and thrown upon the charity of the community at large, as they constantly are. This ought not to be. The Con. missioners trangact all their business with closed doors, and strict inquiry is, on that account, the more necessary. Daring the year we have exposed the new medi cal system, and the cruelties practised in various forms; and we have adverted to the horrible ze- glect of the unfortunate emigrants. We have ex. posed the frauds perpetrated from the time that the runner in Liverpool gets hold of the emigrant, till he is drained of his last cent here. In the course of the last session of the Legisla ture, the mort serious charges were brought before that body against the Commissioners of Emi- gration. A committee of investigation was ap- pointed. Instead of throwing the proceedings open to the press, the inquiry has been conducted in recret, at a lawyer's office in Wall strog}, and we are informed that some of the most astounding re- velations were elicited on oath from the witnesses. One of the Commissioners has been compelled to resign, for some reason or other, kept in the dark Why are these things not given to the public, who, according to the spirit of the constitution, have a right to know all that relates to the administration of the laws? The Legislature, however, has met at Albany, and itremains to be seen what kind of report the secret committee will make—whether they will give all the testimony, or, in other words, whether -the repoit will be the whole truth, or whether any- thing will be kept back; or what action the Legislature will take upon the report when it is presented. One thing it is incumbent upen them to do, and that is to pass an aet to com- pel the Commiseioners of Emigration to open their meetings te the press and the public, and to in- sist upon the contracts being given to the lowest bidder, after duc advertisement in the newspapors. It is true that the Commissioners make a declara- tion equivalent to an oath that they have no inter- est in the contracts; but facts are stubborn things, andthe people ought never to trust oaths when they have a better safeguard for justice and fair play, in the publicity which ought tobe given through the press to the proceedings of all repre- sentative and cerporate bodies. It is more necessary to look after the acts of the Commissioners of Emi- igration than even those ofthe Common Council, amenable to them. The other are appointed by the Governor of the State, and the people have no control over the appointments, except in an indi- rect manner. We want that report, and the oom- mittee had better hurry it up. They have had ample time for preparation. There is no excuse for delay. We hope thcy will not be influenced by the | puff of the Governor. Appress or Dk. Drarer on tHE Lats Dr. G. &. Parrison.—We publish, to-day, a full report of an address delivered to the medical class on the | life and services of Dr. Granville S. Pattison, M. D., late Profersor of Anatomy in the University of New York, by John W. Draper, M. D, Presidont of the medical faculty. It is a very interesting production, and will afford both entertainment and instruction to the reader. The address was listen- ed to by a very large audience of ladies and gentle- men. Tue OvrraGe on THE PromeTurus —By our correspondence from Kingston, Jamaica, published in our columns to-day, it will be seen that Admiral Seymour, in command of the British squadron in the West India seas, has repudiated the conduct of the commander of the English brig of war Expreas, in fring t the American steamship Prometheus a short time since. The outrage mustoertainly have been very aggravated, when it is denounced by the Admiral, without his having received instructions from England. Amreican Vestecs Boannen at Bea—-The ship Brewster, Capt Googins, arrived yesterday morning froin Punta de Arenas, reports being, on November 29, in lat. 55, long. 55, boarded by brig of war Brazillia, from Per- Bhe aleo brought to and boarded an Ameri- can bark Catironnia Emi@ration as Catirorma Paros PEcTS.—One of the most interesting and significant features of the times, in connection with our inter- nal affairs, is the immense number of people who are leaving the old settled parts of the country for the new State on the Pacific. The emigration thither is not to be estimated by hundreds, but by | thousands. Every arrival, to be sure, brings 9 | number from there; but these do not bear any pro- portion to the swarms that are leaving for the land of gold with their wives and families. The rapid scttlement of that State is without s parallel in the history of the world. It was but yesterday, we may say, that it was conquered by our arms and ceded to us by treaty, and now it can boast of large sized | cities, and a number of towns and villages, which contain thousands of inhabitants. When we were | negotiating with Mexico for this territory, the only value attached to it was the harbor of San Francis- co, which is one of the finest in the world. Little was it dreamed then that it contained gold in such | inexhaustible quantities, as it does, or that, inthe | short space of two or three years, it would be @ sove- | reign State of the American confederacy, and the | nueleus of an empire on the shores of the Pacific, | destined, according to all probability, to outstrip, ; in population and in all other elements of wealth, most of the older States on the Atlantic side of the continent. Jj ‘: The progress of California is, indeed, aatonishing; | and the continued emigration thither, comprising as it does the most valuable portion of our people | from all parts, and from every State in the Union, | augurs that, before a quarter of a century shall have | elapsed, there will be an empire established on the shores of the Pacific, which, by itself, would be en- titled to rank among the nations of the world as a power of consequence. As a general thing, the emigrants who go thither are of the bost descrip- tion. They must possess energy, otherwise they would not go there; and they must have some means, otherwise they could not afford to pay the expenses of such a long voyage. It is men of energy and men of means, small or large, which California requires for the full develepement of her extraordi- nary resources. With a large population of this kind, she must, in the nature of things, become an | important State before long. We perceive by the journals of California that the people generally believe that Congress has not done its daty towards them—that it has been neglectful | of their interests. The complaint is, we think, | well founded. The national Legislature, to be sure, has done something for that new, State, but not enoagh. It wants a mint, and | a mint it must have; and the wonder is that one hag not been established there before this. Unti. | it is old enough to take care of itself, the protect | ing arm of the federal government should be ex. | tended over it. As it is, California has grown and | prospered independently of the general government, and without any assistance from it. Indeed, its ad- mission as a State was granted more in the light of a favor, than accorded asa matter of right and | justice. She was dragged into the abolition quar- | rels betwecnthe North and South, aud might well | have exclajmed, “A plague on both your houses,” { for she had nothing to do with them. ‘This neglest should not be continued. California has within her- self all theelements of sovercignty distinct and se- parate from the United States, and were she to set up on her account to-morrow as a separate nation, no power that the United States possesses could bring her within the Union, if she pleased to remain out of it. This is evident. California, therefore, should receive more attention then has hitherto been bestowed upon her, as what she might do, the, perhaps, will do, and such a calamity ought by all means to be avoided. Tne Iranian Opera—Sararigs oF ARTISTS.— Ina recent number of the Henan, we took ocea- sion to present to the public a statement showing the enormously high remuneration exacted by opera singers in New York, compareg with what the same persons had received for their professional services in Europe and Havana. This information we do- rived from the Astor Theatre concern, as being in part explanatory of its decline and failure, under Max Maretzek; but we are now favored with a counter-statement, contradicting the assertion that artists are better paid here than elsewhere, ani showing that, on the contrary, in some instances, their ecrvices are not so liberally rewarded in New York as they had been in Europe. We subjoia some ofthe comperisons:— Bettini rec'd in Madrid, five years ago, per month.. $600 +d Naples, per month......... 0.04 --+- 1,000 Paris, for nine months in the yesr, Per MOMth..... 0... .ccseesseees 900 We Havana, for less than three mouth: $6.000, per month. ....... 2.

New York, “ . sere 200 —And 50, in like ratio, with the salaries of the or- chestra and chorus, which are said to be generally better paid in Havana thanin New York. This statement conflicts with that which we received from the Astor Theatre cource, and we do not pre sume to say which is the most authentic, but leave it an open matter, in the evont of the public taking any interest and requiring more information on the subject. Inthe meantime we see that the season of the Union Italian Opera Company is advertised to open nest week, and that of the stor Opera Hottie the following week, so that the frequenters of ope- ratic performances will have an opportunity of testing and comparing the relative management and merits of the rival establishments. Mvsicat Artists 1n New Yorx,—The musical artists at present in the city, are numerous and distinguished. We never had so many of them. We have Jenny Lind at be Union Hotel, and we are informed ehe does not intend to leave for Europe till May. Whether she will sing again in this city does not appear. At the Clarendon Hotel, on the other side of the same square, we have Catherine Hayes; and she, too, dees not appear to have any definite arrangement made for the future, and we are left in ignorance whether she will sing | here in Italian opera, or proceed at once to the South. We have Steffanone in the city; also Badiali, Bettini, Marini, and several other artists, of both sexes. me of them are “ bright partica- | lar stars,” and some shine with diminished ray. They are ofall magnitudes, from the first to the | seventh, and have each their peculiar lustre, differing from each other, as one star differs from another star | in glory. Then we have got th Hutchinson family, supported chiefly by the abolitionists and socialists; Mrs. Bostwick, whose concerts are sustained by | members of the church; the Philharmonic concerts, | attended by the members of the church; and two | houses of negro ministrelsy, attended by both saints and sinners. What a galaxy of art’ seems as if we had got the music of all the spheres in Gotham. Tue Bat on CincuLation.—We will be explicit. The Times, a penny paper, has asserted again and again, that our daily circulation has dimisishii since its advent into the world. We assert the coa- | trary; and wo are willing to test the truth of the assertion by a bet of $100 or $500—the money to be appropriated, by which ever party wins it, to the benefit of the poor Hungarians. oes he under- | stand us now? It Bare or Pews ix Rev, Hesny Wann Beecnen's Cuvacn --According,to advertisement, the sale of the re mwa nder of the pews in the church cf Key, Henry Ward Beecher, Brooklyn, took place last evening ; but not by auction, as was expected from the former sale. It wasn quiet affair, without any excitement or anxiety to par. cbase, There were very few in attendanse. There was | eworn pursuant to the direc’ | owner of No an abundance of reate left undiepored of. There was no premium beyond the regular fixed price. THE FORREST DIVORCE CASE. Superior Court, Before Uhief Justice Oakley. CATHARINE N. FORREST VS. EDWIN FORREST. TWENTIETH Day. Jax, 10.—Mrs, Forrest was in court, accompanied by Mre.N. P. Willis and another lady, Mr. Forrest was also in court, as usual, with his counsel and other friends, ‘At the sitting of the Ceurt, Mr. O’Conor proceeded to read the depositions of John W. For: of Philadel phi: which were as follows:— ae oi Jobn W; Forney, of the city” of Philadelphie. editor, aged 34 years and upwards, being duly aaa publicly tions hereto annexed, and examined on the part of the plaintiff, doth uepore and ray as follows, to wit :— inst --To ‘the first interrogatory he saith: My name is John W. Forney, aged thirty-four years, by occupation aneditor " Ireside in the elty of Philadephia anihave resided there six years and upwerds. Iam a married man. tecond,- To the second interrogatory he saith: I do know Edwin Forrest, who is by profession « tragedian. I bave known him about fifteen years. I have been during all that time on the most intimate, confidential, and friendly relations with him, and am so still, Third.—To the third interrogatory he saith: I am and have been within and during the last two years editor of a newspaper extensively circulated in the State | of Pennsylvanis, The name cf the seid paper is the Pernyloanian. Fourth.—To the fourth interrogatory he saith; I have looked at the paper now exhibited to me and an- nexed to the commission marked A;I believe it is the copy of a letter written by me—a private letter by me to George Roberts, of the Boston Times. I believe it to be atrue copy. The said Edwin Forrest was not present when I wrote the sald letter; he did not seeit; it was sent off without being exhibited tohim I told him [ bad written it, directiy after I had written it; there were two pareages inthe letter which showed thut it was written with his cognizance. The said Kdwin Forrest and myself spoke of writing such a letter beforehand, but did not go into details. and while the le.ter sent, no doubt, met Mr. Forrest’s approvel, he never-saw it be- fore it was sent, to the best of my knowledge; but of that Tam perfectly certain; I got an answer to that letter. I wrote the letter by Edwin Forrrest’s authority. He did asrent to my writing it. I wrote that letter to a person that I believed to be a gentleman, in confidence, for the purpose of vindicating a valaed friend whom I believed to be an injured man. I had a reply to my letter to Mr. Roberts from him, cordially secondirg the suggestions which I made to him; that letter is now lost or mislaid. ‘That’s all I have to say. JNO. W. FORNEY. “Examination taken, reduced to writing, and by the witness subscribed and sworn to, this twenty-second day of December. 1851, before me, “OSWALD THOMPSON. President Judge of the Court of Common Pleas. cf the city and county of Philadelphia.” Mr. O’Conorthen proposed to read the letter of For- es % Geo. Roberts. r. Van Buren objected to the reading of the letter, as the original was not shown to the witmess at the time the depositions were taken. The fact should be eflirmatively proved that the suggestions were made by Mr. Forrest. In order to connect or charge @ party with the acts of another, that other should be speci- ficsl!y shown to be his agent. Mr. Van Buren then read from the depositions, where the deponent states that Mr Forrest was not present when the letter was written, and that he did not see it before it was sent. Mr. O’Vonor centended that they were not bound to produce to the deponent the original, and he would read the depositions of Geerge Roberts, of the Boston Times, to show that he had received a letter from J. W. Forney. Mr. O’Conor then read the depositions of Mr. Roberts, in which be admitted having received a letter from Mr. Forney. but refused to preduce it, Mr Van Buren replied, and contended that the rule of law was, that they were compelled to produce the ori- ginal to a witness on the stand, and he was not aware Ubut that right was waived by the fact of @ paper beiag iesued under commission. That a letter was written by the deponent to George Roberts there was no doubt; but that any suggestions came from Mr. Forrest, is wholly the supposition of the counsel. The Chief Justice said that it was not necessary that the original letter should be produced, either here cr in Philadelphia; it is quite clear the original must be pro- duced. unless its abeeace is properly accounted for. If it is lost or destroyed, its production must be dispensed with. Mr. Kebcerte refused to produce it, aud thece were no means to compel him, and the matter stands before the Court as a lort leiter. As to the other objection, he confessed that when there is evidence that @ particular letter is written by authority of a party, there i¢ prima facia evidence that he wrote it as the party’s agent. Mr. U’Conor then read the following letter, which he faid was written 26th January, 1850 :— [rawarTe.] Our fiiend Forzest is now hece, and is about to apply fer a divorce from his wife. He bas had, ‘or eighteen months, ihe proofs f her infidelity, but hae chosen to Keop them quiet, and would have done so still, but for her folly ‘in censuriog bim for leaving her. Iv is really astounding how he has kept these Proofs to himeeit from ali his friends, for all that time; but it is so, nevertheless. The facts are these:—-1 menths ago, while playing ia Cincinnati, he caught Sirs. I. in & very equivocal position with a young wan, in hix own perler—not in actual connection, but hear it. She protested innocence, and he let it pass by --loving ber ae he did, most profoundly. They passed on to New Orleans, and s0 home to New York. After they reached, and bad been there for some time, he found, one evening. on his wite’s table, a Jillet dour, in the havdwriting of, though not signed by, this young man, in which she was alluded toin terms the most amorous aud unmistakable. The language alluded to her “ white arme, that wound sbout bis neck’’—to the “ blissful hours they had spent together; ond the letter had been kept asa memento, until it Was quite well worn. Upon this evidence, with the cther contirmatory proofs, he intends applying to our Legislature for a divorce ; but you are now in a position te rerve him in a manner he never wll forget. The person who wrote to Mrs. F., and in whose company she was detected, is George Jamieson, now playing in New Orleans. If you don't know him, you can, as the editor of @ leading daily paper, socn make his acquaintance What Forrest now desires to cliuch the nail, is to obtain in some way an admission from Jamieson. I named you to him, ana safe, steady, and intelligent friend. and he never will forget whatever you may dofor him, in this, to him most vital matter. He suggests that you might insti- tute intimate relations with J., and then induce him, cither in your presence, or in company, to admit as a thing to be proud of, his connection with Mrs. F. He is find of a and porsibly, in « convivial mood, might beco communicative No harm will come to him; be is game too email for Forrest; and any admission he mey make, insy be important only ar atding an injured man in getting relieved from a hateful bona’ Can you manage this thing, my friend? It will require skill and caution, and if suc- cessful, will warmly endear you to Forrest. He is nearly ray at the idea of being placed in bis present position; but he will spend half be is worth to be released from it. ‘This matter must be kept secret. Above all, do not name me in connecticn with it—excuse me for troubling you in regardtoit. Myardent attachment to glorious For- rest must be my excuse. Now, won’t you help to relieve bim? It would help in the on og shen to Know that Jobn Green. the actor, now in New Orleans, is the warm. friend of Forrest, and may know Jamieson well. You can use your own discretion in letting him know the facts, and invcking his aid. This letter is addreaved to you in the knowledge of Forrest. Please write as coon after receipt as you can find op- portunity look about you. ith kind regatde, I am, dear Roberta, Yours, very truly, INO, W. FORNBY, Gro. Ropents, Esq, Priaverrnia, January 25th, 1860, Mr. O’Conor then propored to read the depositions of Oppt. Howard. Mr. Van Buren objected, on the grounds that the deponent refused to answer several of the cross interregatories. He referred to 3 Hill, 4 Wendell, 263, and Washington Reporte, 324 Mr O'Conor remarked. that until the depositions of Anra Flowers were made, the plaintiff had mo idea that such a charge es she deposed to could have been made sgainst her, even though they have a witness who overheerd the conversation of Anna Fiowersin the house in Mercer etreet at the time of her sending the notes to Mre, Forrest.

The charges in the cuses referred to by Mr. O'Conor, with respect to the implication of seme unfortunate members of the protession. he believed were pertly true, and the parties pubmitted to the exactions rather than that the charges should become mitter of public notoriety.
