CITY NEWS. New Butldings tn Breadway. © MILLIONS OF DOLLARS EXPENDED IN PULLING DOWN AND BUIbDING UP. Tho city of New York scems as if it would never bo completed. Tho leading stroct of “the groat unfinished,” is continually undergoing the most ex- traordinary metamorphoses. So great is the sgjrit lof improvement or change, that very excellent build. | ings are prostrated to make room for better, more handsome, or more costly ones, while, curious fonough, small, most unsightly and uncommodious | buildings are still left standing. Broadway presents | ® strange and irregular appearance, when compared with the principal streets of the great European ‘eities. Somo houses are high, some low, somo new | and some old, and some are of one style of architec™ | ture and some of another, and some of no style at | all. It seems an emblem of this free country, in which everybody doeg as he pleas Most of the new buildings have brown stone fronts, which ap- pear to bo now all the rage. The obstrue to the public thoroughfare, and the inconvenience to passengers in vehicles or on foot is very great; but some ‘* partial evil” must be suffered for ** univer- sal good.” The improvements during the last few years are very extraordinary. But the most re- markable feature in these improvements is the in- croase of magnificent hotels oa the most extensive soalo—a sure indication of the rapid growth of the | city, and its steady developement, as the groat em porium of tho world.

Denman and Ward. June 15,—Trial of James Ferguson for Perjury, continued.—Second Day.—This trial proceeds very tediously. On the re-assembling of the jury this morning, the prosecutor, Mr. G. P. Brush, was called, who deposed :—He wasa builder, residing at 87 Greenwich avenue; he knew the accused, Mr. Ferguson; on the 16th of March, 1850, about half past 8 o’clock in the evening, Mr. F. callod and was introduced into his room, on the second floor, and handed hima subpoena; witness rose from his desk, where he was seated, and told Mr. Ferguson, banding him his hat at the same time, to leave the house; that he did not wish to see any more of him or his subpoena; the defendant took his hat and went towards the door, then retraced his steps and said, ‘I suppose I must give you half a dollar;” witness did not see him hand it to him, but he heard itfall on the floor; he came back again and put down his hat, and was looking over some papers in it, and said he must show the original; he then left the room; as he was going out of the door he said, in his own peculiar language, ‘If you put your hani on meT will smash you,” or “strike you;” witness went out, in afew minutes afterwards, to see friend, and met Ferguson on the sidewalk, who said “Tshall now have the pleasure of seciug you in two courts instead of one; but T would prefer kicking you along this sidewalk to anything else.” Mr. Broadyell was present at what oceurre in the room; he was sitting with him at the desk which was at the opposite extremity from the door the room was about fifteen or sixteon fect by seven- teen or eighteen; witness was the Geo. P. Brash who was tried in the Court of Special Sessions on the 26th of November, 1850; was present at the trial, and heard all the evidence of Ferguson. Question.—State, as well as you can from recol- | lection, all that Mr. Ferguson then swore to? Mr. Jordan objected. The best evidence that could be produced of what a witness swears to upon a trial, was the minutes of it, taken by the court, and these only under the leading rule of evidence should be produced. The admission of the mere re- collection of any body else would be tery dangerous. Mr. A. 0. Hall denied that the minutes of tho | court was the best evidence, or any evidence; they were no more than any other memorandum, snd | of $126 and somo cents, which ho paid him—taxable costs in the Supreme Court; did not romember ever having swora that he did not employ either Russell me on those three occasions. Mr. Reome was the man he employed in those cases; could not say positively that ho had not sworn so. The com- peat for assault and battery, and the civil action, eth grow out of tho same transaction; it was wile the civil suit was pending he commenced this prose- oution for perjury; recollocted swoaring to affidavits drawn by Mr. Roome; did not remember the num- ber. He (Mr. Roome,) drew them without witness’ request or knowledge, Ferguson was not in any way related to him; they were in the same chureh; they were in tho same denom- ination at one time, (Baptists); there was no ill-will betweon them; it was not h to order people out of doors when thoy came. in civilly ‘to serve a proc his (defendant's) conduct was civ’ and respectable: aftor he (witness) had told hii to leave the house he said he must show. him the origi- | nal—that was when he banded him. the subpoena, and before he took up his hat; he did show the origi- nal; the whole transaction was in the course of a miuute; witness was sitting down, and then rose up; the defendant said ho must tender him half a collar; the half dollar fell on the ficor between tho desk and the door, about the tima,he started to go; thought it was after he started, as ho was moving towards tho door; left his seat to sca Mr. Ferguson out; he was all the time near him till ho got to tho door; he was by the door, close to him (Ferguson), when he turned and said be would smash him if he laid bis hands on him; his impression was that ho did raise his hand, but did not recollect puttjag his hand on his shoulder; Mr. Ferguson became excited and appeared to be angry; witness was also excited and angry; Ferguson did not exhibit any excite- ment until he got to the door; witness was, ho thought, angry before he got to. the door; did not remember cver saying he was so oxcitod ou that occasion that he did not know what did take place; knew a man named Daniel French; never suid so to him, to his recellection. Question repeuted—Nover did say so; no recol- lection of saying he might have done more than he knew of; he felt annoyed that Mr. lerguson should call him again into court; did.net know whethor he us more passionate than other people; thought he an excitable kind Pa men; did not know what wo made Mr. Ferguson turn round; perhaps he repeated his order to leave the room, two or three times; re- peated it because he was net going as fast as he wanted him to go. Q.—Did you not treat him in a most rude, uncivil and brutal manner? Ang.—No, | did not. Witness continued—Did not know that he got so near as to touch his person, or not; was quite positive he did not como in contact with Mr. ered any moro than he might have put his hands on him; thought he would have known it if he had touched him with his foot: did not know whether his daughter went out in a fright; did not think he passed the threshold of the door; knew Mr. Broadwell; he was thero at the time with him at the desk, or in the room; Mr. Broadwell left his seat; would swear he did not tell Ferguson that he had a mind to kiek any art of his person; could not say ho did, or that he id not, make any threat; thought he had said that Lo never would carry this case on himself, if it had not been by Roeme’s suggestion. Re-examined—Had no sort of words with Mr. Ferguson after he left the room; if he touched Mr. Ferguson at all in the.room, it was not intentional. Mr. Charles T. Broadwell was then called, when Mr. Jordan, addressing the court, said, he supposed that the prosecutor himself must know all zbout this, and Mr. Broadwell’s account would only be ac- cumulative; he left it to the court to suy, taking the story a8 Mr. Brush himself had told it, whether there was an. Shing to go to the jury. Mr. h . Hall always conceded most respectfully to the learned gentleman, who was an encyclopedia of law; but he must observe that he was surprised at the interruption, as every lawyer hed read, and most of the jury understood, that in cases of perjury there must always be two witnesses, and in a recent casein England, the Judge had gaid he would hear as many witnesses as could be produced, no matter how acumulative the testimony might be. The Court directed the prosecution to proceed, and Mr. Broadwell, who had, by the direction of the Court, retired during Mr. Brush’s examination, was called and sworn. He resided at No. 16 West Thirteenth street; was a school teacher ; had some acquaintance with Mr. Brush; never saw Mr. Ferguson until the evening of the 16th March, 1850, between eight and nine o’clock, at the house of Mr. Brush, in Greenwich avenue; was in the back room, second floor ; Mr. Brush and his daughter were with him; Mr. Fergu- son came in and Miss Brush left very soon after; Mr. Ferguson handed Mr. Brush a paper, saying it wasa eubprena; he then opened Se se rand said, “I must show you the original ;” Mr. Brush then rose and handed Mr. Ferguson his hat, saying, “take your hat and leave my house at once—I dont wish to Bee you or your papers any more ;” aft tl hesitation Mr. F received his hat, and after walking part of the way to the door, stopped and said, ‘1 must give you the halfdollar,” and putting his had in his pocket, drew something out and threw it on th floor; from the sound he supposed it was a piece o movey; Mr. Brush then raised one or both hands, open, and walked towards Mr. Ferguson, repeating his commands to leave the house; on reaching the door Mr. Ferguson ‘squared off,” and said to Mr. Brush, “Don't put your bands on me; if you do, will strike you,” or ** smash you;” witness then rose, and approaching the door, said to Mr. Ferguson— “No, no; none of that;” while saying so, witnes had his open hands resting on the table; Mr. Fergu son then leit down his arms and left the house; soon after that Mr. Brush and witness went down to the front door; Mr. Furguson approached Mr. Brush and said—‘ I'll have the pleasure of seeing you at two courts now, but I would greatly prefer kicking you over this pavement;”’ Mr. Gru h’s reply was— That you can do;” they then sep@rated; Mr. Ferguson went an opposite direction; did not, in that room, at that time, see any of the parties strike the other, or offer to do so, except in the way he mentioned; saw no kicks; Mr. Brush did not leave the room till he did so with witness; it might have been fifteen or twenty-five minutes before they went down and met Mr. Ferguson on the sidewalk. The witness, who is an eldezly man, and provok- ingly cautious in his answers, was cross-examined by Mr. Jordan most searchingly. The rest of the day was consumed, and the patience of all present ex- hausted by tho duration of it. The poner points elicited were—that he was born in Vermont, in the month of November, and went thence to Plattsburg in the following May, so counsel could judge whether he recollected it; he came to theigity in 1339, and passed a portion of his time in school-teaching, and a portion in selling Bibles and uninspired religious works, and books of a moral character, and no other—very few others at all; he took this course for the sake of his health, after being con- fined in school; to be more explicit, he sold none of an immoral tendency; he guarded against that; on the night in question he went to Mr. Brush’s, to converse with him about a house owned by him (Mr. B.) and his partner; had never seen Ferguson before; could have seen the piece of money that fell if it had been his business to look; could not sa) whether there was a gas light, but there was suffi- cient light; would not undertake to say it wasa bright one; thought it was an oil or camphene size of the room; it was acommon size; Ferguson stood near Brush when he gave him the subpoena; thought Brush was sitting a little distance from the desk—one or two yards possibly; the defendant walked to the door with his face or his side towards witness; he walked backwards as Brush followed, cansequently Brush’s back and Ferguson’s face were artly towards hi in this position he could seo poth Mr. Brush’s hands and fect, and all they did. After a long xamination as to this point, To a Juror.—Did not see either of them touch. Q—D or did not, touch Ferguson's person while he was following him to the door?’ A —I think they did not. Question repeated. Mr. Hall interposed. The answer was a correct one; it was equivalent to swearing as to remem- brance or be The Court held tho answer suffi- cient, and defendaut’s counsel took an exception to tho ruling Witness had been sworn before the Special Ses- sions, and made one or two affidavits before tho magistrate, in the complaint against Ferguson for perjury ; believed Mr. Roome drew the first of those affid: did not swear to it exactly as it was drawn ; did not think Brush was excited or angry ; considering the circumstances, he was remarkably was in @ very slight degree; Mr. Brush raised his hand up open; witness could see that journed yesterday, and with Mr. Roome; he might have sworn on a former occasion, that if thoir tect could only be used to refresh the memory of the writer.

Inside were seen two elegantly dressed very young Indies; for their appearance, however, they wero uot indebted to the milliner—Nature had heen bountiful also, Seated close to them was a middle-aged lady, respectably attired, but whose grief caused her fo conceal her features from obser- vation, aud outside stood a young boy, who present- ed a good figure for a better part than he was now enacting—for our experience ut once conveyed to our mind the fet that he was chargod with some offence against the laws of meum and fawn. We were equally satisfied that the grieving matron was the mother of the erring youth. -&. little inquiry enabled us to colve the mystery. ‘The two grac were the proprietressos of a temple in Brewster's Buildings, Broadway, sacred to Terpsivhore, or, ‘ix point of fact, Licawber s a dancing school, where bulls sxe occasionally given. ‘The youth had , been in the'r employment as doorkeeper, and in that capacity. whether the genius of the placo had invested hi; ith “light heels,’ which, combinod with bis ng palma,” had led to the act, we know not it he made himself searee with a sum of | about and was shortly aftorwerds arrested waking some purchases.

ANOTHER GROUP-—LOA) ODICAL JAIL DELIVERY. Among the inmates of the city prisons are several committed every month, week, and day, by the | police justices, for disorderly conduct, till they fd bail. With many of these poor wretches, thatis an impossibility, and hence their imprisonment would be perpetual. “When, therefore, ‘‘the loafers,” as they call them, accumulate to an inconvenient nuxber, the keeper sends a batch of his oldest proteges up into this court, where they aro discharged. For this purpose a picteresque group of eleven individuals were ushered in from the prison this morning. They completely deggared description, and the coust, deem- ing the aferesaid picture would have a better effect at a distaace, directed them to “clear out’? without making any personal applieation in front of the bar. These prisoners are not enumerated in THE CALENDAR. The list for trial this morning contained tho names of forty-six porsons in caltody. ‘The offences were of the usual description brought up in Special Sessions, many the most wretchedly petty thefts— for example, a poor German, Joseph Breman, plead- ed guilty of stealing ham and soap, ot the value of fifty cents, from a store in Beekman street—sentence three months in the Penitentiary; and William Me- Loughlin, being a “marked” man, was sent for six mouths fcr stealing a basket valued at seventy-five cents.

Dingel- in.—This was an action brought by the pfaintiff inst the defendant, proprietor ef 2 line of stages running from Sixty-first street, through Third ave- nue, to the Fulton ferry, for damages sustained by Lim (plaintiff) under the following cireumatances -— On the 29th May, 1851, a8 the plaintiff was ro- turning to his home in Avenue A, near Eloyenth strect, from hie business in Sixty: second street, he at- tempted to get np on the top of one of the defend- anv's stages, then standing at tho étation at Sixty- fi din so doing, missed his footing and sstages coming mlong- skull and ribs, and him insensible, and, for a long time, in a very critical situation. This action is brought for the injuries thus received, through the alleged carelessness and negligence of the defendant and his servant, who had charge of the stages at the time. Damages are laid at $5,000. For defence, it was contended that the stage upon the top of which the plaintiff was attempting to get, and the one which ran against and over him, were not running on the usual route for the accom- modation of passengers, but had been chartered by a military company to carry them from the Red Heuso, between Yorkville and Harlem, down to this city ; and at the time of the accident, were loaded, inside and out, with soldiers, ready to start, when the plaintiff made the attem on the top, and that he was, therefore. ser, and the defendant could not be liable. s made a forcible appeal on behalf of the plaintiff, and in the course of his observations. commented with much deserved severity on the ‘trusting to luck” system which governs our pilots ou the rivers and our drivers through the public strects, Fre- uently our boats are impelled with rapidity on the rivers through derse fogs, ‘trusting to luck ;”” and when they escape collision, it is more through chance than by judgment or good pilptage.

During the past eight or nine evenings the representations of Mr. Hamblin wore witnessed with great enthusiasm by full and re- spectable audiences, who are always desirous of seeing a good actor and a representative of the palmy days of the stage. He has been in this city nearly thirty years, and has always been considered a first rate tragedian; he has also educated many of the best actors of the day, several of whom are now in England, bearing the palm before the might: gads. He will be supported by Stevens, Goodall, and other eminent performers, “The entertainments oes the drama of “Three ras of a Woman’s jife.

The music of this piece is very sweet, and is ron- dered doubly go by the artistic manner in which it is executed under the direction of Mr. Roberts, the leader of the orchestra. The entertainments will close with the drama of the ‘Willow Copse,” Madame Celeste in her inimitable representation of Rose Fielding, supported by Messrs. Conway, Davidge, Reynolds, Fenno, Miss Kate Horn, Mrs. Henry, and Mrs. Sefton.

The entertainments commence with the comedy of “ Perfection,” in which Mr. Blake and Mr. Lester, of great dramatic fame, will sustain the leading characters. The ballet performances of the Fret troupe will follow, in 2 variety of their most beauti- ful dances. Burron’s Trratre —The laughable and eccentric drama culled ** Paris and London,” which has been received wiih unanim cheers by the patrons of this prosperous establishment, will be prosented again this evening, with the same brilliant cast of characters.

Nationa, Turatne.—Purdy seems determined in this season of great dramatic rivalry to be as much on the alert as any other manager in the city. He has engaged Mr. J scott, an actor of versatile talents, and a great favorite for years while playing at the Bowery theatre, to appear in the first walk of the drama, and Fanny Wallac, to fill the same situation in the female department. Mr. Scott ap- peurs this evening, in the new prize tragedy called | ** Helos the Helot” which has been written express- ly for him—he will sustain the character of a noble Grecian slave, and Miss Wallack that of Mythia, his | sister. ‘The amusements will close with the drama | of **Columbia’s Sons,” Mr. W.

He will be supported by Mr. Arnold as the ghost, Mr. Jordan as Laertes, Mr. Lynne as first grave digger, Mrs. Vickery as the ette as Ophelia. Those who spearean representations, will do well to call at the Lyceum this evening and the three following nights, to see Brooke in four of bis admired characters.

There was a large congregation, and about forty clergymen present, attired in white surplices The services were commenced at half-past tom o'clock, at the conclusion of which ‘The Rey. Dr. luany preached the sermon, taking as his teXt the 77th Psalm, 17th verse: —* His name shall endure for ever; His namo shall bo-continu- ally,” &e. He observed that this society would Jong live in the history of tho church. He alluded to its celebration in lands on both sides of a groas ocean, and separated by thousands of miles, and existing under many temporal differences, whieh distinguished the Old World from. the New. The faith, church, and charity of Christ wore the great watchword of those assemblies, and their record would remain in history. Under the especial protee- tion of God the Gospel had paseed from hand to hand from our predecessors, to whom it had beon givom, ag it was to us, in trust, for the benefit of others. | In the midst of political strife and worldly indiffer- enee, this society, representing the chureh in her spiritual Dane became the true missionary of Christ, and laid the foundation of the doctrines of the nposties and of the prophets. Through all chan, false ideas of progress, infidolity, and fanativiem, it had endured. ‘Two nations, under different forms of government, and entertaining na- tional prejudices and pride, interchanged their aym- pathics. “After all, influences which were powerful 4 ant, aud had produced change inquired concerning the faith; regarding the exam- ple of the mother had inflicted no restraint on the liberty of the child.

In the early part of May tho following petition was sent to tho Common Council :— To rnk Hon. rar Common Councin— The undersigned, publishers of the several news- papers employed by the Corporation to publish ite preceodings, ordinances, &c., respectfully represent to your honorable body that the compensation now allowed for the services rendered by the subscribers falls far short not only of a fair componsation, bu’ of the actual expenses incurred in solng the work. When the present contract was ente: upon, the sum then allowed barely indemnified us for an ag tualoutlay; atthe present time, the service ren- dered is many times greater than it was then, and eur petitioners think they aro entitled to, and do joreby ask, that from and after this date, an an- nual sum more proportionate to the expenses in- curred, be allowed them.

Shortly after, judging from the date, the annexed was handed to the Board :— Day Book Orrica, 203 Broapway, New York, May 8, 1452. The Merchants’ Day Book, through its agent, F. P. Nolan, proposes to insert the Corporation adver- tisements of the city in the columns of said papor for the yearly sum of ono thousand dollars; said udver- i nts to be inserted in said paper, which is ished every day, with the exception of Sunday These documents wero received, and referred te the Committee on Ordinances, consisting of Messrs Denman, Tiemann, and Ward, who made the follow. ing The Committee on Ordinances, to whom was re- ferred the annexed petitions, respectfully report, thas they haye carefully considered the petitions, and deem it inexpedient to recommend their adoption. Firssly—Because, before and at the time the se- lection of Corporation newspapers was made. there was no complaint by the petitioners that the com- pensation was inadequate to the services rendered. Secondly—Because they have propositions from newspapers of as large circulation as those ,of the petitioners, to do the Corporation printing at the seme rate now paid them, viz.: one ious dollars per annum. Thisdly—Because the Common Council has om- ployed almost double the number of newspapers hitherto employed, which has greatly increased the expenses ot Corporation printing, and, considering the enormous taxes now imposed upon the city, do notfeel disposed to recommend any unnocessary in- crease. Fourthly—At tho time the selection was made your committco was disposed to continue the peti- tioners’ papers in the employment of the Corpora- tion, (as they had long been employed by the Corpa- ratioa to do their printing, and as they were still de- sirous to be retained in the Corporation employ) notwithstanding their newspapers were of limil i ion, which has long been a subject of com- y our citizens, which induced the committee, on a former occasion, to recommend an increase of the number of Corporation newspapers, among which was the New York Darcy HeraLp—which recom- mendation received the unanimous approbation of the two Boards, and the sanction of the Mayor, at three thousand dollars per annum, because its daily circulation, among all of our citizens, was nearly forty thousand, while the circulation of its cotem- poraries was only from three to five thousand. And hero it may be proper to state that, at the time they recommended the present Corporation eport — | newspapers, they ascertained, as nearly as the: nt al that the Commercial Advertiser, Evening Post, Aonins, Express, did not exceed four or five thousand each, while the circulation of the DatLy HERALD was nearly forty thousand, thus (admitting the oir- culation of the three abovenamed newspapers to have been even five thousand each,) showing that the ag- Us nad circulation of the Commercial, Post, and Express, is only fifteen thousand por day, (oach re- ceiving one thousand dollars per annum for Corpo- ration printing.) while the DArLy Herp has neare ly forty thousand subscribers, or circulates about twenty-flve thousand per day more than the Commer- cial, Post, and Express, all together—thus showing that, in paying tife HERALD three thousand dollars per annum, your committee did the petitioners ne injustiee. Finally, the committee, in selecting the HERALD, adopted the policy of ournational Congress, which selects nowspapers throughout the country for Post Office advertisements, remunerating them ac- cording to their energy, circulation, aud pi utility. This report was adopted by the committee, and presented to the President on the last night of the May session, but was left with the unfinished busi- ness. Before it could be presented by the President to the Board, the application for the pap was with- drawn by-tho petitioners, ascertaining, probably, that the report would be adopted by both boards.
