_— ‘Anmtversary of the Protestant Episcopal Mutual Benefit Soctety. ‘The third anniversary of this society was celebrated yesterday evening, at St. Bartholomew's Church, the Right Rev. Bishop Wainwright presiding. The congrega- ‘tion was large. Dr. Price and Dr. Harsey commenced the ceremonies by reading the evening service. Dr. Haicur then preached a very able sermon, appro- priate to the occasion, taking his text from the twelfth chapter of St. Paul’s Epistle to the Romans, fourth and fifth verses :—“For, as we have many members in our body, and all members have not the same office, so we, being many are one body in Christ, and every one mem bers one of another.’’ At the conclusion of the sermon, The Rev. Mr. Horkus read the ANNUAL REPORT. On com; the present statistics of the society with ‘those contained in the annual report of last year, it will be seen that a steady increase has been made in every department of its operations. The number of members is now one hundred, being an increase of one-third over Jast year; while the funds on hand amount to $1,187 53, an increase of about fifty per cen’, Of the members men, and the ninety-one laymen are from diflerent parishes. This last fact is a tifying proof that the interest felt in the societ, Sectional but is generally diffused throughout ‘the churehes in this city, and isa sure ground for hope that its eld of usefulness wil! yet be greatly enlarged in pro- portion as it shall become better known. During the year eleven appropriations haye been made for the be efit of six different members, amouating in all to $79 28 ‘There has also been paid from the Widows and Orphans Fund, the sum of $120 to the widow of a deceased mem ber. ‘This being the only cave that has yet arisen under the provisions of the constitution, “more has been done than could be reasonably expected as a general rule. But it has been a great satisfaction to the members that one so worthy and left so destitute by the death of her husband, has been provided | for so liberally, and that simply from the fact that he was, at the time of his decease, a member of this society. The death here spoken of took place previous to the last annual report. During the past year, by the goo! provi dence of Almighty God over our little band, while thou sands and tens of thousands have fallen on every side, not a single soul has been taken from among us by the hhand of death. In addition to the amount already speci fied, a considerable sum has been paid out of the contin- %é fund in general charity to church people not mem 5 on of the society. Operations we shall presently speak further, in connec tion with another matter of no small importan But we cannot forbear alluding to two cases of rather uncommon interest, which have been among those relieved from the contingent fund of our society. One was that of a poor man and his daughter, who with wealthy relations abroad, and once in comfortable cir- cumstances themselves, had been reduced to helpless destitution. The daughter devoted herself to the support of her aged father by her needle—a labor so incessant that her overtasked sight gave way, and her eyes wept literally tears of blood. ‘The physician who attended her, moved by her extraordinary filial devotion, with as extraordinary a generosity, supported them both for about five og when, the burden haying become too heavy for him to bear longer alone, aid was rendered from the funds of the society. The other was the case of a mother, with three small children, who suddenly became a widow, under most heart-rending circum- stances, at Whitehall. But Providence seemed to mani- fest a peculiar care for her from the moment of her be reavement. The rector of the church procured her aid in Whiteball. She received a free ticket on the railroad; free lodgings were provided for her here; a wealthy merchant—he who so often does such things—gave her and her children a free passage on one of his packets to England. The society supplied her with provisions, besides aiding her in other ways. Even on the gre deep, she was neither forgetten nor forsaken. dren were taken dangerously ill on ship-b in the next berth to hers was a skilful physician, who by God's blessing, recovered them before the voyage ‘was over; and at length she reached her native land im safety, and was received joyfully by her relations. “€aces like these have not been few; and such happy relief will, we doubt not, flow forth more and more freely as Our means are enlarged. Cne of the objects pro- in the formation of the society, was “to secure to ite deceased Christian burial.”’ In order to accomplish this at less expense in the case of poorer members, appli- cation was made to the corporation of Trinity church for the grant of a plot of ground in Trinity Cemetery. The welcome response to this application has been the dona- tion ofa plot containing -ix hundred square feet, which will be amply sufficient for the wants of the society, at Jeast for many years to come. An ornamental certificate of membership has been adopted, and handsomely exe- @uted at a comparatively moderate expense. On looking @t the actual numbers of our society, it may naturally | excite some surprise in the minds of its friends, that, acity so rich in churches and churchmen as New York, it should not have mustered more than ane hundred mem- ders during the three years that have elapsed since the adoption of its constitution. growth there are many reasons. notwithstanding the great ~ want felt inall our large towns of an institution like ours. In the first place, a society which is practically a novel. | ty in the chureh, is at once opposed by that instinctive | spirit of conservatism; that determination to walk in the | id paths, and in none other, which is one of the strong- est characteristics of the church, and which makes it the firmest bulwark of the commonwealth. Besides the odi um of being new, it Iabors also under the imputation o being only a sort of insurance company, which, indeed to a certain extent, it is; but it is one which goes as far beyond other igsurance companies in its princi ‘the basis of its action, as it surpasses them bleness of motive which gave it birth, and whi the administration of all its functions. Anoth tion raised aguinst it is, that it is getting up a special so ciety for doing what it is equally the bounden duty of al Christians to do. To this it may be answered, that “what is everybody's business is nobody’s business.” If amem ber of the church is sick or in want, and there are ten thow-and fellow-churclmen living in the same place, it is, on the ground of fellow-membership alone, equally the duty of the whole ten thousand to visit and relieve him. But it is practically impossible that the whole ten thousand shouli do any such thing. Each ene of them may attend to some individual instances of distress. ‘Nay, at times, an in case that happens to become known, will be almost overwhelmed with relief: while other destitute neighbors, | perhape—simply because no one has chanced to light upon them—may fare as poorly as did Lazaras of ob thegate of Dives. y unassociated effort, the administration of the charities of the church must be necgstarily w if not spasmo dic—as con'ributions for such objec erally are. It is onl, and where all that the purely voluntary er poorer members are ea: tem of harity is sufficient for the wants ‘f the poor. We see how soon complaints grose in the A; ostclic Church of Jerusalem, because their widows were neglected in ily ministration; and it is no wonder i ame ery in the chureh of America, In those days, too—as ix now the case with our Bishops and parochial Clergy—the burden was too heavy for the wposiles and elders alone, and deacons were appointed, mainly for that ministration. And now, when the church will not, as yet, support, an order of deacons specially to fulfil this work, and when the parish priests cannot possibly answer the demand, this society comes in, and £0 far, at least, as its own members are con cerned, supplies the want, and does—with order and aystem, and, therefore, elfectually does—that which Christ hath ordained that all His members should ever be ready to do, for His dear sake, in bebalf of one ano. ther. ‘Still another reason for ovr slow growth been the peculiar position of this past, and the fact that, besides being ciety had never received any formal sanction from a histiop lawfully exercising jurisdiction in this diocess. ‘The depressing effect of this long interregnum has been seriously felt by all our church institutions. ry 108 The weary hands have hing down, and the feeble knees have tot tered slowly elong that good path where they should | have been able to run and not be weary, to walk and not faint. This obstacle has now been’ happily removed ‘The Right Reverend the nal Bishop of New York, having been in due form ested by the soc req r ¥ its constitution and by-laws, and having examined has. in writing, con-ented to act as the counsellor of the society, under article 4 of the constitu tion: and he is here to-night. presiding at this ting, to testify to the church at gnified to us. We ary Our anniversary mé large, that approval which he has are, therefore. no longer 4 mer association of individua's, uni wortby, struggling slowly and of the chureh ; but now, at length, ac D pal sanction, guarded by Episcopal oversight, and forti fied by Episcopal approbation, the onward march of the society shall be, not only over a wider field but also with a firmer etep and with increasing speed. Its tendency towards a wider field was strik ingly shown by one of the amendments made in its constitution, not long after the organization of the so ciety itself. "That constitution, as originally adopted, Spisco- ret forth as the objects of the society only it ies to its own inembers : and this limited purpose is, unfor tunately, all that is indicated by its name. d rection, however, has since been added, equally the duty of the society, according to its ability to administer relief in cares of distress among the mem bers of the church other than members of this society This feature appears alco in our kindred societies, and hhas been carried out by some of them even more fully than by us. This is a great step in advance. ft shows the feeling with which the society was imally devised, and in which it i» actually car out. It proves that the laity are able and willing to come to the aid of the clergy work which the clergy, unaided, are themselves, any more than the blesse’ Apo itles were be. fore them. It proves that they are ready to undertake, not simj to guarantee ‘‘ Mutual benefit” to the Bers of tits little, modern, limited society amon other, but are ready to carry out the ‘mutual’ principle ac to the sublime idea laid down by the head of that, ourgreater family, the Church—ready to do Him, in our ., miserable way, what may show our grate. ful love to for ali that he done for us—ready to do it unto the least of these His bre hren, knowing well that im sodoing, we render it unto Him. There is one subject not yet finally acted upon, which has already anxiously cecupied the thoughts of ‘inany members of the society. Great na is the want of such @ provident and systematized instit ation among our own sex, yet it is indisputable that the other sex is left far more defenceless than ours in this naughty world, and needs far more the steady, strengthening influence of such kindly and fostering care. ‘There is now no constitutional mode of admitting female members; and even if there were, practical diMculties would be likely to arise. A female visiting committee would be mecessary for the sick of their own sex, and the questions arising from a mixed constituency, and possibly a mixed government, in the society, might easily be come #0 com ted as to embarrass the whole enter. prise. Many have thought that the better way would be to ‘the t of an independent xoeiety, com- Fosed ily off pex..

I say the offence is one of very dangerous tendency. Thus far, for the most pee oe Courts have gone on and been sustained y the force of public opinion. The great body of the community, and certainly all the better portion of it, have been disposed to stand by the ju end and say its mandates must be obeyed. It is not with us as in Europe, where courts are influenced by sol- diers and bayonets, but here we go on by the power of public opinion. This is the greatest outbreak ped us in the race. The Philadelphia Brotherhood much more numerous than we are, has already propriated twice as much in general charity | in benefits to its own members, and has besides, | ith the approbation of the Bishop of Pennsylvania, | adopted a liturgy or form of devotions for use at their | meetings.

Chas, Spear on “The Late Executions In New York.” | Last evening, the above genileman delivered a very | eloquent discourse on the late executions in this city, be- fore a crowded audience, at the Brooklyn Institute. He began by saying that the fate of Saul and Howlett should be an example to all young men. Their punishment | would not reform criminals, but, on the contrary, would | tend to increase crime to an awfulextent. They had accounts of people who would be glad at all times to see such executions; they had heard that some people would eyen buy seats for that purpose. In England, it was quite a common thing to give the highest price for a good seat. He remembered hearing about a man who always paid a high price on every occasion to witness executions, and that very man was afterwards executed himself. He then alluded to the number of criminals that were executed in this country, the greater portion of whom, he said, had witnessed public executions If moral reform is the object of the law, why not have the law amended, so that the whole community could | come and witness it. There was an ailecting scene hap- pened that afternoon—(referring to the day of the exe- cuiion.) While he was waiting on the outside of Saul's cell, he heard the most agonizing groans inside. Saul was taking a favewell leave of his mother and sister. They asked him if it was the last time they would behold him, and he said it was. It was the last time that they beheld him alive on this earth. It was a great question whether | the law could not devise some better means of disposing | of its victims than it does at the present day, and whether | | it was right io take that life th could not give. | They could not imagine the misery caused to both parents | and children by the law as it isat present. There is more | real suffering in the families of criminals than they | | were aware of. There is in the prisons of this country more than thirty thousand prisoners, and what must be the feelings of the mothers and sisters of those | unfortunate men. It was not in battle that the most misery | was.to be found, it wasat home. In time of war,the mother | reads of the death of her son, who died an honorable death, but at home, in time of piece, she reads of his | death in the public papers, by the hangman's hands. | | ‘There had passed, he said, about twenty thousand prison- ers through the Tombs of this city within the past year, and when any of those who came out applied for work they were in ‘most cases refused. In Prussia there are schools for the children of criminals. In his opinion | | there ought to be such institutions in this country, for | in that way thousands could be saved who otherwise be- | come hardened criminals. They came very near having an innocent man (Johnson), who was not guilty of the crime | he was convicted of, hanged. Lxfayette looked upon capi- tal puni-liment witli the greatest abhorrence. A short | time ago in Vermont, a criminal was just going to be | hong. when a yoice was heard erying—‘Sotp, stop for | God's sake, he is innocent.”’ And on investigation it was | found that the speaker was the very man who was sup: posed to bemurdered, When men wanted to advocate slavery, they referred tothe Hible. When they wanted to advocate Capital punishment, they also referred to the | Bible. Let them throw their minds ‘back to the begin | ningof the earth, and they would find that although | there were no magistrates in those days, still God took care of Cain, and punished him severely, Some men would refer him perhaps to the cov nt of Noah, “Who- | so sbeddeth man’s blood. by man shall his blood be shed, ut there are twelve difierent translations of this verse. and the people of that time certainly did not look upon it in the same light as they do at the present day.— It cost him a whole week's labor to find out how many offences were punishable with death by the laws | of Mores. Among those enumerated in the list were | e who oppressed the widows and the fatherless. | | He hoped that there were none of those men who | were guilty of thatoflenee, residing in this city. for there | were plenty of them in Hoxton.

Judges Duer, Cam | Emmett. | ARGUMENT OF EX-CHIEF JUSTY | HALF OF THE PLAINTIF | Refore } BRONSON ON BE Jan, 29,—Ex-Chief Justice Bronson said—-Several objections haye been made to this proceeding, and | the first is, that the injunction is inoperative against the members of the Common Council, because they | are not parties to the suit. To that I answer that | the Aldermen and nt Aldermen are parties to the suit. The suit is against, and the injunction was addressed to the Corporation of the City of New York—to the Mayor, Aldermen and Common Coun- cil of the City of New York—in fact to the whole corporation. Now, the whole includes all the parts. 't includes every branch, all the integral parts, of this corporation, all the official members of this corporation. A corperate body we know is one thing, but it must have members and officers and agents; and although a corporatioy is a thing that cannot be seen itself, yet when process is directed to the corporation it ia served upon some human being who is an officer and agent of the corporation, and stands ready to carry its behests into effect. The suit was against the Corporation by its corporate name, and the order was addressed to every | offisial of that corporate body. They were all | included in it. When it is required to get an answer upon oath—when you want to probe | the conscience, you sometimes go beyond the cor- | porate body, and make the directors, as agents of the corporation, parties to the suit, for the purpose of discovery ; but never did I hear of process or any- thing to restrain the action of a corporation directed toanybody but the corporate body itself, for, if the | corporation disregard the injunction when it is ad- dressed to it, it does it by the acts of its officers, who, by their acts, are the persons who do the deed. So when a Sheriff is restrained from selling property on on execution, or any other officer is restrained from doing anything, and he does it, it is not the officer who is punished, but the individual ; and so it is with a corporate body: it is not the Aldermen who are punished, but the individaals—Sturtevant and others. This argument is conclusive, for the other side have cited no cases in support of this proposi tion. Nothing is said in the books in relation to it, and the reason is, that nobody ever doubted it. In support of this proposition, the learned connsel cited Camberbach, 227—Smith against Batler—in which case the Mayor and commonalty of New Sa- rune had failed to gin an award which was made a rule of court by consent, and a remedy was moved for against the corporation, and the learned Judge said, “If the breach can fixed against any particular person, we will attach him.” These caves of mandamus are analagons. It is a command addressed to a corporate body todo an act: it is the command of the Court to do it; and the ques. tion is, whether it is to be obeyed. Counsel cannot make any distinction between these cases. He said they ‘wese not the same thing, but that was all he could say about them. In support of this point the learned conngel cited Kid on Corporations and Angell and Aimies on Cor tions. The next objection to this injunction is, that a copy of the affidavit upon which the injunction was granted was not served; but in anewer to this I say that it was sufficient to serve it | | against the laws, if we are right, that has happened in this State since the murder of Steele. They set the laws at defiance, and say they are aboye them. This has been done by educated men, and men having advantages to know better. Some of them, I believe are lawyers; Alderman Sturtevant is, I know. These men are conservators of the public They sit in our Courts of Justice, and condemn the poor, humble, and wretched man, who commits of- fences against the laws. They condemn them for violating the laws of the land, and they themselves band together to break them. It is a dangerous ex- ample. It is an indictable offence; but whether the Grand Jury willtake cognizance of it, I do not know. The Grand Jury, ! believe, are selected b the aldermen themselves, and if that be so, I thin! that is one of the reforms greatly needed. If our magistrates themselves claim the right to break the laws, and to commit offences that are indictable, and they are to find the persons who are to find the in- dictment, it is time that we had a reform inthe mode of electing Grand Juries. Whether the Grand Jury or the District Attorney will move in this matter, it is mere than I know; but this I do know, if these pe sons are not amenable for what they have done, then a most dangerous thing has been done in this community—dangerous to the administration of jus- tice—and some examplary mark ought to set upon it, or our community cannot hold together. My clients haye brought this matter before the Court, and have discharged their duty, which was all that they could do in relation to it; and there I leave the matter, not doubting that the Court will fearlessly pronounce a righteous judgment. The Court then adjourned until Saturday next, | when Judge Duer intimated that judgment would be given in this case. City Intelligence. FUNERAL OF A NEW YORK VOLUNTEER. We are called upon almost every Sabbath day, to record the burial of one of the New York Volunteers. The re- maining members of the regiment assembled yesterday afternoon at half past one o’clock, for the purpose of paying the last tribute of respect to the remains of Wm. S. Cormack, who served with much distinction as a Ser- geant in Company D, The funeral procession formed at the headquarters, Mercer House, in the foliowing order :— The vs plendid company of the Continentals, com- maneed by Capt.

As the cortege moved down Broadway it attracted much attention, and a very general regret was expressed for the now contracted remnant of the gallant band, Tar Proposrp PLAN [or Escape By Howsert, Jonxsoy AND SAUL—A rumor was in circulation on Saturday, that Howlett, Saul and Jehnson—the two former exe- cuted on Friday last—had planned an escape some days previous. Howlett, it is said, had chopped a hole through nis cell, into an adjoining ome that was empty, larze enough to pass his body. Saul was to havea pair of pistols bronght into the cell to him, which he was to pass over to Howlett. The latter, on a certain night. was to creep into the adjoining cell, the door of which was unlocked, and then let himself out into the corridor, shoot down the two night watch, Messrs. Linden and Finley, get the keys, release Saul and Johnson, and ail three make their escape. It is further said that Deputy Keeper Wood, under whose peeial charge the convicts were during the day time, mistrusted something was wrong, and questioned John: son about it, who owned up, and deseribed the plan pro- posed for escape. These facts, it is said have been kept private until after the execution, least it might, by be- ing public, wound the feelings of the culfirits—a very praive-worthy object truly, if true. The disclosure, how- ever, reflects considerably on the vigilant capacity of Mr. Deputy Wood. What could the keeper have been about | to lave suffered Howlett to cut a large hole through the wall, and he not to discover it ? The funeral of Saul took place yesterday from the resi- dence of his mother. at No. 18 James street: a very large concourse of people have thronged in and about the pre- mises since the body was taken home; hundreds of wo- men have visited Mrs. Saul and looked at the corpse: in fact, so great has been the crowd that the police have been compelled to interfere to disperse the multitude. ‘Tor Wearner continued mild and yery pleasant during ‘erday.
