He should return in A when he would delivers lecture upon “ Theobald Wolfe Tone, and the - Meagher said :— ancestry of Henry Grattan was a matter of no oon- uence. It it be well enough to say, however, that stthe time of birth, (1746,) his father was Recorder of the city of Dublin, and afterwards occ seat in Parliament. His mother was superior to his father in every respect. The lecturer alluded to the gullant spirit evinced by young Grattan, and the fact that the same al- most rash contempt for danger was one of his leading characteristics. In that day, in Ireland, every man fought merely to oblige his neighbor. In 1765 we find Grattan's name entered — the books of the Middle Temple, London, as every Irish law student did and does, to eat his way through a succession of dinners to the bar. Grattan, while in London, spent most of his time at the 9) the theatre, and in the houses of Parliament. ‘there was temptation enough for him too; Garriek, Mack- lin, Quinn, and Mossop, were on_the stege, and in the upper house he listened to Lord Chatham, whose scowl gave Robert Walpole a pain in the back. Edmund Burke was in the Commons. In these scenes and amid these temptations, is it to be wondered at that Grattan acjuired a distaste for the legal profession? His client should be a nation, and her freedom the only brief from which he should speak. (Cheers.) He became uneasy and sad; he deserted the fashionable London lounges, and in his loiterings in Windsor Forest, and afterwards by the clear brown current of the Liffey, the greves of Swift and Vanessa, he grew convinced that he was right—he determined to persevere. ‘This spirit ve rise to many incidents, at which no one frughed louder or longer than himself. His landlady in London wrote to his friends that he was crazy, that he continually walked about his rooms calling upon some i ‘inary individual, whom he addressed as ‘Mr. Speaker.” Passing by a gallows one night he com- menced speaking to the empty chains, when a passer by exclaimed, “Why, how the d—l did you get down.” A short time afterwards, in the Senate, he was called a madman by Edmund Burke, who like many Irishmen of the present day, (hear, _— made over his genius and his labor to a countr? not his own. (Applause.) Such men have had costly funerals by the princes and poten- tates of the earth, pillered panegyries and storied monu- ments; but they have lost what was better than ail, the pious love, the fond remembrances of the people amongst whom they were born and bred, and amongst whom the; should have lived, and fought, and died! (Applause.) Suc! men, Grattan said, imagine they Tepresent something higher than their own country, when, in fact, they only represent their salaries. ‘‘Let me tell those gentlemen,” waid he, “that if they are not Irishmen they are nothi: This was the madman, who in his wild ray- ings, ht that Ireland might once be frie. Grattan took his seat in Parliament on the same day that Wash- ington accepted the command of the American forces under the old elm tree in Cambridge. (Applause.) His first speech was against the c nscription of four thou- sand Irish troops, with whom England desired to cut the throats of her American brethren. (Prolonged applause.) Both men had the freedom of their country to work out— both succeeded, but the triumph of the one was re- versed, while that of the latter still remains untouched (Cheers) At this time England wa full of business abroad; but there was little or no trouble in Tipperary (laughter and applause), and all the treops were drawn of from Ireland. The mother country, the kind, old dowager, therefore concluded to send her grenadiers to administer gunpowder tea to the Americans, and to twist into ‘the stamp paper which the revolutionary fathers had discardeed. (Cheers.) Loyal people in Ire/ land became alarmed—only the loyal people in Ire- land ever became alarmed. (Laughter and applause.) The executive was on its last legs, so much embarrassed thatit was to borrow £20,000 from Latouche’s private bank, and so weak was its credit that when the Lord Lieutenant ee for another loan he was genteely re- fused. Then did the peopic enrell themselves by compa- nies, regiments, brigades, into the ranks of the Volun- ‘teers. was said te be at the mercy of the invader. The rich led themselves from the instinctive desire for seif-preservation, and the poor because they felt the hope for liberty, which has never died. CApriause,) Ina few months the Volunteers amounted to forty thousand men, and England saw her despised tributary stand ac- knowledged her superior. (Cheers.) Then it was that Grattan shone out resplendent. He said, ‘let the friends of liberty rejoice at this means of safety—the hour of re- demption isat hand.’’ He hoped it was. England was and inthe hands of Ireland her fate rested. The day will come again when England will be struck with infirmity, and Iet go her hold upon Ire- land. (Cheers.) Grattan knew that he to set free his country from the oppression of English lords and @eommons. With him the fate of England was a second- aryafiair. He said that he knew of no gratitude which should oblige Ireland to be subservient to England. (fn- thusiastic applause.) In the spring of the year 1780, Lord North was turned out of office, and the new minis- try came in with good prospects; but their faces dark- ened. The beggar was na longer in rags, but stood be- fore them in uniform and eross-belts. The Volunteers numbered a hundred thousand men, while the King’s troops mustered but five thousand.’ An English regi- ment halted to allow a regiment of Volunteers to pass, who had advanced with bayonets at the charge, to dis- pute the pass. (Applause) Fox saw at once that there was nothing to be done by force. The force for once was allon the right side. He thought it better to try a little diplomacy. It is always the same way with English whiggety. When Samson is strong, Delilah se- duces him. “Grattan loved Lord Charlemont—tenderly and intensely loved him. Fox knew it, and sent Charle- mont to him to ask that the declaration of Irish rights might be held over for a few days. Grattan was ill when Charlemont called upon him, but his eye flashed, and his frame scemtd imbued with new life, as he exclaimed— “No time! no time! The question is public property, ‘and shall not be postponed!’ (Enthusiastic cheers.) Afterwards he and Lord Charlemont were invited to take office, and refused, on the ground that offiees bell in Ire land were under the intluence of the English go vernment, which was always opposed to, and fre quently in direct collision with, the interests of Ire- land. “ Let this example be a warning to those gen- tiemen who pretend to serve Ireland with the gag in their mouths, the collar of servitude about their necks, and the wages of perfidy in their pockets. (Prolonged applause.) The speaker gave a beautiful episode of the appearance of Dublin when Grattan made bis memorable spee the Volunteers were on parade in front of the Parli House. Dublin has never since seen such a day. iz land bowed the knee for once. How the glory of that day darkened—how the Volunteers were disbanied—and how the Senate was dismissed—were topics which the speaker had not the time or heart to discuss. That the Irish Parliament should be reformed he did not deny; but when Dr. Ludlow en the Harmony of Business with Intellectual Cultare. Yesterday evening the Rev. Dr. Ludlow, formerly Pro- vost of the University of Pennsylvania, and now Pro- fessor of Ecclesiastical History in the Theological Semi- nary of New Brunswick, delivered a lecture at Hope Cha- pelon “The Harmony of Business with Intellectual Cul. ture.” The Reverend gentleman said:—In opening this short course of lectures my object to-night will be to show the perfect harmony between business and intel- lectual culture. This will claim your chief attention, but I trust I may be pardoned if I occasionally indulge in some digressions. Who does not perceive the most deci- sive evidences of this harmony in the very constitution of man’s nature? We all know, that in order to under- standa of mechanism it is necessary to examine its several parts, and to ascertain the relations they bear to each other. Having done this, we are not only made acquainted with its construction, but alvo enabled to per- ceive its main design. So witha watch, so with a steam engine; with the first we can measure time, and with the other second the efforts of man with more than super- human power. Apply this to man’s nature, and you will perceive he is a being of creation, and of wonderful work- manship. His body is beautiful’ in form and symmetry, made upof various organs, which are at the same time fitted for labor and toil. Within us is a mind acti spontaneously, and capable of controlling every outwa movement; and such is the connection, one with ano- ther, that they are adapted to subserve each ether, and pay regard to their common interests. And if the body be stunted in its growth, and the mind only enlarged, in- jurious results ensue, but benefits acerue from a happy admixture of vigor of open 9 of physical strength. When such is the case, and the be- nefits become apparent, it is evident that men were made for mental as well as bodily labor. To despise or under- value labor, is to despise the constitution of our own na- ture—to reflect presumptuously, if not impiously, on the designs of an All-wise creator. Labor, however humble, when directed to some useful end, is most honorable; and upon an eminence from which he can look down with con- tempi upon those affected gentry who are either too lazy or too proud to work. But if the very institution of man’s equally taught, by the law of common humanity, that this labor should be combined with mental improvement. Besides the manifold physical differences between man and brute, men alone are capable of progressive improve- ment. There are differences, too, between the different members of the brute creation, for some are endowed with higher instincts and sagacity than others. In the acuteness of their senses and instinct, some of them are far beyond man, but all are alike incapable of progressive improvement. The bird builds her nest and the lion seizes his prey with no more skill than any of their predecessors Brutes have always acted inthe same manner. Were tlie laws of humanity the same, man would be like the brutes, and one age wouhi be like the preceeding. Instead of this, however, man perpetuates with his being the knowledge of the past. Treasures are spread out before him, and all that is instructive in science, history, literature, phi- losophy and the fine arts, and all that is pleasing in poetry, sculpture and painting, is the common pro- perty ‘of all men who seck to obtain it. But by What means can it be obtained except by intellectual labor? A vigorous, untiring application of the mind. Such labor, however, is only properly the business of the scholar. It is’ not expected of the mass of mankind, for they have neither the time nor the ne- cessity for it. Yet if men would desire to live above the brutes and rise to the condition for which they were de- signed, they must exert their minds. ‘They must know something of the past and the present to fit them for even the common duties of life. ‘Their social condition, so intimately connected therewith, imperatively demands it. Even menial offices cannot be performed without a union of physical and intellectual labor. A conclusive indication that He who made them intended that both should be employed, is, that both can be employed in per- fect harmony. After’ making a few observations on the mental culture, the lecturer proceeded to say :—it is ar- cently to be hoped that whatever encouragement be given to manufactures in this country, it will never be carried to such an extent as to bring up the rising race to misery and degeneracy. But it is not alone to our physical nature we are taught to pay regard. The intimate connection between man’s mind and body, shows that the impreve. ment of man’s intellectual powers is one of the best es- tablished and most unalienable rights. He is a recreant tohis very nature if he do not improve them, and he should never be placed in those circumstances which pre- vent him from so using them. It tollows too, that if society be an ordinance of the Deity, that it is equally duties he owes himself. This is the broad foundation on which we may rest the obligations of government to secure to all classes the benefits of education. With re- gard to the extent of that education there may be dives ties of opinion, but with regard to the duty itself, I ap- prehend there cannot be one doubt. It is a matter of con- gratulation, that several States of this leviathan republic are acting on this principle. But to return to my main object. This harmony of business with intellectual culture is connected inseparably by our state. With the increase of population the wants of the people are being multiplied, and necessities are created for new occupa- tions, which require intimate acquaintance with science. Such things are the concomitants of extended civiliza- tion. When man enters into civilization he becomes a changed being, and the arts of life changing produce new occupations, and commerce rising stimulates in- dustry and advances comfort. The lecturer here entered into a discourse relative to the necessities that existed for preventing the growth of luxurious and extravagant habits, which are but too generally the accompaniments of civilization. He then proceeded: But judgment must be exercised in decrying all things that may only seem to be extravagant, for how many persons depend for their liveHhood on the use of things that are really useful, may be considered extravagant by notearried vainly and foolishly, extent, they seem indispensably necessa’ to the pros- perity and Happiness of a large portion of © community widows with helpless families, by the mere manufacture of artificial flowers, are enabled to live independent of cold and heartless charity. I must here remark—though in so doing I may run counter to the prevailing feelings of the community—that the labor of that small class of humble, but worthy, operatives, find their means of subsistence seriously affected, if not destroyed, by the putting in practice of anti-Inxury rules on the part of the rich. But theseare questions which every independent tinker will determine for himself. Passing on toanother pitesten, and in order to show ina still stronger light Re importance of intellectual culture to business, let us see | how inen are indebted for profitable and produetive employ- | ment to the advances of scientific knowledge. ‘There was a perio? when the world wasa t waste—when the occoe, rolling in awful and terrifie grandeur, deterred the mariner from launching on its restless bosom. But now we see that the whole world has been thrown open to the gaze of civilized man. The ocean has become a fa- millar path, and, literally, it may be said of man— “His march is on the mountain waye, built again it sould not be fashioned after the model of Westminster, butafter that of Washington. (Cheers.) Our space will not permit an extended report, but our re- | porter cannot refrain from giving in full Mr. Meagher’s | anost brilliant peroration. In clo-ing, he threw imm power into the following words:—The streets of Dublin are silent now. The hoofs that pawed the pavement on that day beat the dull stones no more. The beauty that shone, fike the hues of the morning, through that vision of freedem, has vanished in the night that has come upon the land. The throbbing heart has grown cold beneath the shroud. The white arms which wore those chains of crusted gold, set with stones of crimson, vio- let, and emerald, have withered like the leaves of the lily—have been strewn upon the earth--haye become the sport of the wind and the spoil of the worm. a silent hall—into the desolate seclusion of which no busy or inquisitive foot intrudes, and where the dust, falling from the cornices, might steal a languid sound from the marble slab beneath, so deep the repose, which dwells there, by night apd this silent hall, called the “Royal Excha the more solemn and impressive for th: surrounds it—stands the statue of Hen ed, as the inseription in a foreign tongue w’ modesty relates, by a country ‘not ungrateful.” (Great applause.)

Without chemistry and other sciences, commerce would be suspended, and ships would rotting, and the grass would grow rankling in our streets. The lecturer then took a hurried survey of the | progress of intellectual culture, and concluded by ex- pressing a hope of having sueceeded in convincing his audience of the necessity that ex mind as well as the body. Madame Albonl| in the Massachusetts House of ntatives. During the discussion of Saturday evening theatri- cals, in the Massachusetts House of Representatives, on the 3d inst., the question took quite an eccentric episode.

The House coa- eurred by a vote of 85 to 49. Mr. C ELL rose to present his motion; but sundry voices called for an adjournment. The qnestion was put and negatived, by a vote of 133 to 63.

Several demands were made for an adjournment; but Mr. Butler, of Lowell, had the floor, and was proceeding to speak, when the Speaker declared that the subject be- fore the House admitted of no debate. The greatest confusion prevailed, over and above all of which Mr. Butler's voice was heard demanding a hearing. On the understanding that his remarks were to be special ly devoted to a question of order, Mr. Butler was granted & hearing, when he said—' Mr. Speaker, a,lady, sir—and it is not therefore decorous to make sport of a lady. I trust, sir, that this matter will come to an end. Mr. Coooawst then withdrew his motion. Mr. Tuomrsoy, of Boston, said—“I trust, Mr. Speaker, that no notice of this proceeding will be put upon the re cord of this House.” The SPEAKRX.—It shall be so. No notiee will be made of the motion on the journal of the Clerk.

The doors of store were immediately broken open, but the flames were not extinguished before property to ‘the amount of $3,000 was destroyed. Tae fire originated in the cellar, amonga heap of rubbish, which soon communicated to some turpentine which was stored there. From the inflammable nature of the goods the fire extended to the first story, which is occupied as a grocery and ship’s stores. The flames, however, were arrested before their progress had done much damage. The firemen were quickly on the spot, and it was owing to their promptness that the building and its contents were saved from destruction. About two o'clock on Thursday afternoon, a fire broke out in a wood-house in the rear of the residence of Henry Luakenburgh, corner of Fifty-seventh street and Fighth avenue. The flames were, however, soon subdued by means of a few pails of water. The damage done ex- tended only to the burning of a small quantity of fire- wood.

His father was a Polish Count, and during the late revo- lution in Hungary was imprisoned by order of Emperor Nicholas, and diéd while in prison. ‘The deceased was a refugee, and has been very unfortunate during his stay in this city. The following testimony, elicited before the coronor’s jury, will throw some light on the death of this unfortunate individual :— Ignus Cruszack, being duly sworn, deposed that he re- sided at 137 West (pow ee ; he was 2 room mate of the deceased, Albert Marehocki; about one o'clock on the 27th of January last, I left him in the room; he was then crying; Iasked him what he was crying for, and he gave him no answer; he then left him and went’ to his work; when he came back, about six o'clock in the evening, he learned that he had shot himself; he then came to the New York City Hospital and saw him; he had some con- yersation with him, and told him that he loaded the pis- tol the day before, and that on the day of the occurrence he placed the pistol in his mouth, atl shot himself, and that when hereturned to his senses again he was sorry for what he had done; the deceased eft a note on the table wishing him farewell. John Hineklage being duly sworn, deposed that on Thursday, the 27th of January last, he heard a cry for help, while sitting in his room; when he was going out his wife told him that something had fallen in the garret. He went up stairs and found the deceased sitting on a chair; Dlood was running from his mouth and nose; he then asked him what had happened, and he pointed to the floor where there was a pistol laying; he asked him if he shot himself, and he pointed to his mouth; he tried to speak and deponent understood him to say “hospital,” he then notified the officers, who had him removed to the city hospital; he saw him again that evening, but did not | speak with him.

Ona post mortem examination, he found the ball lying on the spinal cord, which was the cause of his death. The jury returned a verdict, that the deceased commit. ted sued fe, by shooting himself in the mouth with a Pistol. Deceased was a native of Poland, and about twenty-four ears of age. A New Dovcr.—On Thursday night at 9 o'clock, two young women entered the house No. 274 Tenth avenue, and proceeded up stairs to the bedroom of Mrs. Logue, the occupant of the house, who was lying sick in bed at the time, when ene of them produced a male infant, about six months old, and Inid it on the bed, saying ‘ Hore isa present I have brought for you.” After carefully laying the child down they departed. On the arrival of Mrs. e's son, whom she had sent for a physician, he con- veyed the ebild to the station house, whence it was taken | to the Alms house. A Narrow Escape FROM BEING Burxep To DeaTa.— Thursday evening about 7 o'clock, a child of John Dolan, who resides at 160 West street, was sent to bed, having a lighted lamp in its hand, and through negligence set fire ‘to the bed clothes. In a few moments the room was en- yeloped in flames, and had it not been for the intrepidity of the police, who heard the boy’s sereams, he would in all probability have been burned to death. The police, by strenuous exertion, succeeded in extinguishing the flames with trifling damage. Ax Orb Verrray Astray.—An old man, named Israel Smith, 103 years of age, was found astray last evening, in Broadway. When taken to the office of the Chief of Po- lice he stated that he lived in Greenwich street, but did not know thenumber. He looked very hale, and spoke in glowing terms of the revolution. He witnessed, he said, the death of General Pakenham, at the battle of Ney Orleans, at which he was present. OnGaN PeRvorsaNce.—Mr. William A.

THE CHARGE AGAINST POLICEMAN WHITEHEAD CONCLUSION OF THE EVIDENCE AND DECISION OF E MAGISTRATE. Yesterday the investigation was resumed in the mat- ter pending against policeman Whitehead, before Jus- tice Welsh, on a charge of receiving feloniously into his possession stolen property, the proceeds of a bar- glary and grand larceny, from two thieves named Henry Newman and Charles King. We published yesterday the facts and circumstances in the case, tozether with the full statement of Mr. Whitehead, on his examination be- fore the magistrate. On the part of the defence Mr. Whitehead produced the fellowing witnesses:— Jennetie Cook,jsworn, says:—I reside at 129 Pitt street; on the 18th day of January, Henry Newman camo to our house in a carriage; the driver came in, and asked if a person lived there by the name of Cook: I said yes: | the driver then brought a carpet bag in the store, and laid it down by the counter; Newman then came into the store, and asked if Jane, h , was in: T said yes, and I left them there together; Icalled them into the back room, after they had talked together in the store; Newman brought the carpet bag in, and nid it by the bureau; he then threw some arti- cles—a vest pattern, cravat, and two handkerchiefs—iato his wife’s lap, and & quantity of silk; my sister-in-law then came into the room, and told me she thought there was something wrong about it; I spoke to his wife about it; she said she thought they were dirty clothes; I wanted her to look at them; she would not, saying that her hus- band would be angry if. she interfered with the bag: she then went away, and did not come back until I delivered the goods up to policeman Whitehead; I told Mr. White- head about them, and what articles were there, as near as I could; I asked him if he had not better take che things, and see if he could not find the thieves; he said yes, he would take them: I gave them to him; I told him that I expected Newman there that night; he seid he would come up; Newman did not come that night, but come the next day, between ten and twelve o'clock; when he came, he asked about the goods, and what right 1 had to give them up; I told him the reason was I thought they were stolen, and gave them to the officer: Newman said I need not have feared the goods, as they were paid for, and came from Philadelphia, and ‘said they belonged toa man named “Jim;"’ Newman asked me to request Whitehead to return the goods, or sell them, and divide the money with him; I asked’ Mr Whitehead, who said no, not under any circumstances; Jane Newman has been off and on in our family for some time past; 1 lad never seen Newman until that morning. David Waterbury being sworn, says—tI am doorman of the Eleventh ward station house; about three weeks since Whitehead came in the station house and told me that he bad a carpet bag in his possession that he got out of house, which he supposed had been stolen and left there by a thief, and wanted me to call him the next mornin about four o'clock, that he wanted to lay for him and catch him; he said be thought he was connected with a gang of thieves; I called him about four o’clock: he got up, dressed himself, and went away, saying that he ex pected he would be there after the things or bring more; I asked him the same day how he made out; he said he had not accomplished anything; Whitehoad sa “Pm damned if I don’t catch him; I won't give it up so; two or three times after that he asked me tocall him, that he wanted to lay for them. The other doorman, named Vorus Penny, testified to about the «ame facts as given above by Mr. Waterbury. Daniel A. Bostwick being sworn, said—I am a police. man of the Eleventh watd; about two weeks since Henry Newman told me that he had got on track and had received some things, and that he should likely want me to go with him to make an arrest, as some one had pro. mised to spot them for him; Whitehead told me that a man wanted to sell him a ticket for a watch; I told him that I would not buy any ticket, but if he could get hold of the ticket to take it; I asked him if he could fasten tho things which he had, on any person; he anid no; I told him that ifhe could not fasten it on the man he had bet- ter not make any arrest, for if he did, after the man was examined and discharged, Le could claim the things; he , Of some pro- up somet! that he told me that he were ready to testify which went to show that ding his statement, not concealed property, but spoke | about it to many other persons. The magistrate, how- ever, considered that enough had been shown implicating | Policeman Whit to warrant his ente: the complaint, and sending the case before the uext Grand Jury, but did not require Mr. Whitehead to give bonds. two thieves, and Newman, were examined yesterday, and committed for trial on one charge of bur- glary and three complaints of grand larceny. Burglary and Grand Larceny.—On Thursday evening, between tle hours of five and nine o'clock, some rogues foreed open the outer door of the livery stable office of | Mr. Nathaniel Underhill, situated in Varick street, near | Spring street. The desk in the office was broken open. and bank bills amounting to $1,300 were stolen therefrom. Officers Culrow and others yesterday arrested eight boys, on suspicion of being concerned in stealing the money. 1t seems that the boys have been in the habit of loitering | about the livery stable, and are thus suspected of com: mitting the larceny and burglary. The boys were con- veyed before Justice Stuart, who committed them to pri- son for a further hearing. ‘A Charge of Robbery.—Officer Kaveny, of the Sixth ward police, arrested on Monday night a man named Arthur Short, on a charge of assaulting Patrick Cassidy, knock- ing him down and stealing from his person $14 by force | and violence.
