' The directors must immediately, on the receipt of these bills, give over the 23,000,000 piastres in their hands.”’ This mode of withdrawing the direction from Mesers.

The icture No. 29 was of the value of one hundred dol- lars. Pictures are chattels. The Art Union proposed to distribute them by lot or chance among its sub- scribers. Each subscriber had paid five dollars, which made him a member of the corporatioa, and entitled him to a chance, in such distribution, of ob- taining the picture in question as a prize. The scheme of the Art Union, and the proposition to dis- tribute the pictures by lot, is, therefore, a violation of the statute above recited, unless this association has some special authority which exempts them from its operation. The act of January 29, 1844, en- titled “An act to amend the act to incorpo- rate the ‘Apollo Association’ for the acanDiaee of the fine arts, passed May 7, 1840,” (Laws of 1844, p. 7), is supposed to create such sxempeon, and to operate as a repeal of the statute against raf- fling and lotteries, so far as respects the American Art Union. The American Art Union was original- ly incorporated by the name of the Apollo Associa- tion, with power,.among other things, of making a Sule ecnel pas ard regulations as they should judge proper for ce: enumerate 3. The fourth seotion of the act directed the sinual election of officers, to be held on the third Monday in December; but the act did not give, or purport to give, the coporation the power of distributing pic- tures or other property by lot, or of regulating such distribution by their constitution or by-laws. The ration made and adopted a constitution on the 3d of December, 1843; and by its tenth section it was provided ‘that at the annual meetings of the asso- ciation in December, the works of art purchased dur- ing the year, should become by lot, publicly deter- mined, the property of individnal members, each member being entitied to one chance or share in such distribution, for cach five dollars by him sub- scribed and paid. By the first section of ‘the act of January 29, 1844, the name of the Apollo Association was changed to “The American Art Union.’ The second section is as follows:—“The distribution of the works of art belonging to the association, pro- vided for in the constitution thereof, and the annual election of officers, shall be held on the Friday pre- ceding the 25th day of December, in each year, in- stead of the time stated in the fourth section of the act bereby. amended.” The defendants insist that this statute reco, nizes the distribution by lot of the works of art peloor te to the corporation, as a law- ful act; and therefore repeals the statute against raf- fling and lotteries, first above quoted, so far as it would otherwise have made such distribution illegal. But if the scheme of the association, for the pur- chase and distribution of its works of art, by lot or chance, is a lottery, within the meaning of the State constitution of 1821, which was in force at the time of the passing of the statute above mentioned, the Legislature had no power to authorize or sanction it; and the eecond section of the act of 1844, is there- fore inoperative, either as a grant of power, or a re- cognition of such grant. This brings us, therefore, to the real question in the case, namely, whether the lan or scheme of the Art Union, above mentioned, a lottery, within the constitutional prohibitionr The 11th section of the 7th article of the Constitu- tion of 1821, is in these words: “ No lottery shall hereafter be authorized in this State; and the Le, lature shall pass laws to prevent the sale of all lot- tery tickets within this State, except in lotteries al- Seok provided for by law.” This prohibition is ge- nm Jt must be held to embrace all lotteries, unless there be some very clear and satisfactory reason for understanding it in a very limited sense. It was urged on the argument, that public lotteries for pe- cuniary , 28 a Means of raising revenue, were alone within the omeete De of the framers of the Constitution. But lotteries have never been cre- ated within this State for the purpose of general re- venue, and there is therefore no ground for believing that the prohibition was intended to be limited to lotteries for that o! This would have been re- straining a mischief which did not exist, and tolerat- ing that which did. Lotteries had been authorized by the Legislature for the benefit of colleges, for the making of roads, for the building of bridges, for the Sapperemete of ferries, for the creation of hospitals, and for various other purposes lly commendable and beneficial. All these were clearly within the prohibition. The prohibition was not aimed at the objects for which lotteries had been authorized, but at that particular mode of accomplishing such ob- jecta. was founded on the moral principle that evil should not be done that good might follow; and upon the more cogent practical reason, that the evil consequent on pernicious kind of gambling, greatly overbalanced, in the aggregate any good likely to result from it. The praca ion of the fine arts is un- doubtedly a commendable object; but the prohibition contains no exception in its favor on that ground. Payment of the prizes in money is not one of the es- sential ingredients of a lottery. Whenever the scheme of distribution is such that if the payment of the prizes were in money it would be a lottery, it will be equally so, although the prizes are pa ble in lands or chattels. In 1820, the city of Albany was authorized by a statute to dispese of its public lands by a lottery, not to exceed in amount two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, The distribution of these lands by lot or chance, was denominated a lottery in the title and in the body of the statute. (Laws of 1820, p. 224.) Payment of prizes in money, therefore, 1s not essential to a lottery within the meaning of the word, as used by the Legislature before the adoption of the constitution of 1821. The intention of the framers of the constitu- tion undoubtedly was to forbid the future grant- ing of any such lotteries as had at any time pre- viously been authorized by law; and by requirin, the Legislature to pass laws to prevent the sale of al lottery tickets, to put an end to all such distributions of meney or goods, by lot or chance, as thereto- fore been forbidden by the statute, under the name of private lotteries. A reference to the statutes of the colony, and the State, See private lotteries, will show conclusively that all schemes for the dis- tribution of private property of any Ciena by lot or chance, were regarded by the Legislature as coming within the denomination of private lotteries. The sale or slg emty “of any goods, wares, and merchandises, by way of, or in manner of lottery,” was prohibited in the province as early as 1721, by an act entitled “ An act vo prevont private lotteries in the province of New York.” The same thing was done by another colonial statute in 1771, with a simi- lar title. (Van Schaack’s laws, pages 124 and 674.) The statute of 1753 contains a similar provision, (LK. & R. 35), and this is repeated in the act of 1813, (2 Rev. Laws, 18k). That the prizes to be distributed by the Art Union scheme had _ no fixed market value, is of no importance in relation to the point in question. To render it material it would be necessary to show that they were of no value, This is by no means true. They are valuable, although not readily saleable in market for what the artists believe them to be worth. They are articles of mer- Ghanaian. The intention of the scheme is to sell them fur more thin’ they can be sold for at private sale; and this was to be brought about by an appeal to the universal passion for playing at games of chance. The indulgence of this passion was pre- cieely what the constitution intended to repress and rohibit. Nor is it material to the question in hand hat the prizes were not known and designated when the tickets or chances were subscribed and paid for. The scheme, in this respect, is more objectionable than a scheme in which the prizes are previously fixed, becaure it affords less security to the subsori- bers that the chance purchased is worth the money paid for it. The Art Union scheme is a lottery within the ordinary meaning of the word, as defined in the English dictionaries. It is “a distribution of prizes by chance,” which is one of the definitions of a lottery by Johnson and Webster. It is ‘a kind of game of hazard, where- in several lots of merchandise are deposited in prizes for the benefit of the fortunate.” (Rees Cyclopedia.) itis “a game of hazard in which merchandise is de- posited in prizes for the advantage of those who gain the tic kets which entitle them to such prizes.” (12 Brewster's Fd. Encyclopedia, 258. © scheme in question has all the attributes or elements of a lotte- ry. It isa distribution by lot of a small number of prizes among a great number of persons. The prizes and blanks are drawn in the rhanner in which prizes and blanks are drawn in other lotteries. Tho certifi- | cate of membership isa ticket which entitles the helder toa chance fora prize of a much greater value than the price of the ticket. It is a lottery ac- cording to the common a of that word. It is a lottery within the definitions in the dictionaries, It isa lottery within the meaning of the word, as used in the Legislature of the Colony and State of New York for more than a century; and we should be tifling with, and perverting the language of the Con- stitetion. if we were to say that it is not a lottery within A copy. Bcd R. SELDEN, State Reporter. _ More Trouble Between Young America and the Old Line Democracy. (From the Savannah Courier, Feb. 3.) TNE DEMOCRATIC REVIEW. The January number of this well established work has been our table for several days. It consists of over two hundred of closely printed matter— literary, political, and religious. ie editoris a man of genius, but of the most radical and progressive character, He is not ay a Young American in principle, but a red republican in feeling. He is not satisfied with the positions of such men as Cass, Bu- chanan, Dickinson, Hunter, and the score of old line democrats. He belongs to the Douglas and Soulé school. He is an annexati of the most unlimit- ed desires. He favors the acquisition of Cuba, Mexi- co, the balance of the world, and “the rest of man- kind.” Bennett, of the New Yor Heraxp, is his model as an editor. Cass, Rives, and Buchanan, are all old fogies, who neither comprehend nor care for the progressive spirit of the age. Our diplomats abroad are, in his opinion, unfit to represent a free people. They are mere sycophants and cyphers— eae tothe prejudices and vices of royalty in he Old World. He abuses the Catholics and denounces the order of the Jesuits, He raps Brownson over the knuckles and erie Hughes over the back at the same time. He bids him come out from among the old fogies of the church, and join the mighty throng who are aboutto sack the churches and liberate the enslaved prone of Spain and Mexieo. Not satisfied with the Vestern continent, the present number of the Review contains a long article on Hungary and the Hunga- rian war, in which the writer makes a most furious caer any upon the work on Austria, recently pub- lished e Hon. William Henry Stiles, of this cane, im Hey is be a as an oe fogy, as playing the sycopl royalty, as running with the hare and hunting with the hounds, as mis- bhi ey ES facts and murdering the King’s Eng- lish. Every crime known to authoship or diploma- cy is charged upon him in terms neither the most delicate nor expressive. We will not now undertake to review the work in question. At a more convenient season we ma) look into its merits. The article in question is evi- dently illiberal and unjust. The intention of the au- thor is patent upon face of the paper, and it is but an act of justice, toexpose the true motives of the writer. This article developes a wi of the history of {ithe late democratic convention at Baltimore, which pom to be placed plainly before the honest men of all parties. We have not received the facts directly from Mr. Stiles, but stand ready to substantiate the followin; statements. They explain the character of the arte cle, and the motives of the writer. Mr. Stiles was one of the Baltimore Democratic Conyention in nominating the candidate of the part; for the Presidency. It will be remembered that bot! wings of the democratic ay of Georgia had dele- ae in that body, viz: The Union democrats, num- ring, seventeen, and the Southern rights, number- ane erate It so happened that of the Southern rights party there were seventeen who had express- ed themselves favorable to Judge Douglas as their choice, with a determination to sup; is nomina- tion. Mr. Stiles (who was of the Southern rights wing of the party) was in favor of Mr. Buchanan as the nominee. ¢ Union democrats were altogether in favor of Mr. Buchanan. Mr. Stiles and two others, therefore, held the vote in their hands. It was during this period that the editor of the De- mocratic Review, who, understanding the ‘ion of the Georgia delegation, spprosched ‘Mr. Stiles, and in the presence of Maj. Lally and Mr. F’. Doyle, of Washington, told Mr. Stiles that he had written and published his work on Austria, that if Stiles would go for Douglas he would give it such favorable no- tice and criticism as would ensure its entire success, but that if he persisted in the support of Buchanan, he would give him such a skinning that would damn his work forever. Mr. Stiles replied to him by ask- ing the ‘price of his skinning, which he would gas pay, being satisfied that his: ‘skinning would do aresity eee ee ie promised skint and it is a nice This is commentary upon the character of the Review and the purity of the Douglas wing of the democratic party. It is ses peones tears that these articles are all written with great entity and with a degree of fervor and unction well calculated to command public attention. Astor Hovsr, New York, Feb. 17, 1853. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK HERALD. The Union, ineapable of a manly an’ A pursues its burrowing course by meanly attack- ing my letter, published in the Hrra.p of the 4th inst., through its feelers, and their respective par- asites of the second order, and then republishing the articles origina’ from its own establishment asin- dependent ex, of generalopinion. The spir- itless sameness of these paragraphs betrays their concerted origin. There is not a trace of individual- ity in a one of them; and while identified by the same malicious imputations and dishonorable misrep- resentation, not one of these papers has had the cour- tesy, the independence, the courage, or the honesty, to republish my letter. ita course of reckless assault, the Union cabal vainly essays to conceal trom the public ken ite utter bal Slot of principle. Let them discussthe measures of the Review, if they hope for any influ- ence over the people. Let them say to which of the propositions of the pro; jive democracy they stand opposed. Let them ‘nctly announce that oppo- sition, and stand to it long enough to let the public see where they are, and long enough for a fair rep]; from Young America. Let them do this, and this vi- sionary party, which they so recklessly attack—for the crime of youth and vigor—will drive them, as it has already driven them, like sheep from their corners, or prove the falsity of their democracy. But let them not, under the dusty cloud of general abuse, endeavor stealthily to creep into our proposi- tions, and then, upon the popularity of the measure declaring iteclf, claim to have always been of that ‘‘same” opinion. We make no sort of objection to their quitting their old positions, if they will only do it openly, and leave off playing the ‘‘ Artful Dodger.” Ours is not, as theirs is,a mere attack on persons and motives, which can have no interest for the pub- lic. We speak for principles, and to the democratic arty. ¥ The Unton and its cabal not satisfied with the mo- nopoly of several papers of respectable standing in their day, have the ingenuous modesty to recommend to the nation an especial organ for the benefit of General Pierce, as if he had not the intelligence to make his own selection of a paper, or an editor; thus, not only attempting to head him off in measures, but officiously putting a hand-organ in his way, set to play their own tune. The Union had better look to itseif, It is difficult to see how an organ entirely too slow for Mr. Everett can undertake to constitute itself an adviser to the Pierce administration. The accusations against the Union in my first let- ter were true in every particular, giving the Union the benefit of the most liberal construction. It was only driven from the Cd, of the Fillmore policy by the heavy blows of the Review. But the Union tandem being a donkey team, and too dull to move except under the lash, it is of very little consequence o the driver whether they kick up or not, so that they go. ‘the Unron would fain imply that the circulation of the Review had decreased in my hands, while it has more than doubled its circulation durin; he At the same time, it endeavors to create the impression that itis sustained by the democratic party; while it exists only by the patro of Con- ress, which the generous confidence of the Youn; mocracy, now the subject of their slander, allow: to be bestowed upon them. Also, to read the columns of the fogy journals, one would think that the Review abounded in attack on private character, while it is as tree of itas any publication in the world; not that we think a public man’s private character is not a fair subject of criticism. But we have argued only for eather principles. ‘The concerted press commenced its systematic at- tack upon the Review, Magic! Abo the election, and long before its late issue, although I had ear'; informed the venerable editor of the Union, that had determined to sell the Review after the election, and did not anticipate the issue of another number under my own direction. But the assaults ran riot, becauee it was then supposed that ¥ would have no chance to defend myself, and because they hate the name of the Vemocratic Review tor what it did before the nomination and for the result of the nomi- nation. The Richmond Enqnirer kindly volunteers to free Judge Douglas from any responsibility for the course of the Denccretic Review. The compliments of the Review to the Enquirer. The Review of 1852 has, some time ago, placed its reputation very far above doing the grinding for ang man. The Enquirer and ite set have been so habituated to pleging the claqueur to some distinguished individual, that they cannot reach to the idca of a paper expressing the indepen- dent views of its conductor. For myself, and the bigh-hearted, incorraptible, and talented men who have assisted me, we cannot afford to share the praise or blame which has been ene bo escape as these gentlemen do, by dapnien: ing his motives. Buta slight stretch of the imagination would be sufficient to lead to the sup- position that the Richmond Enquirer was influenced. to join in the crusade against Review from the selection of the intellectual head of the talented young editor of the Richmond Examiner to grace the front of the May number. : The little Pennsylvanian “feeler” quoting a verse of a melancholy nursery legend, makes inquiry after the slayer of one Cock Robin. The veracious poem, however, never expresses any doubt as to the fate of pom Robin, who was not only shot at, but killed and juried. I come now to the only tangible charge which has been made against me, and the only one that would have required notice at my hands if the Union had had the common fairness to spaniel my letter, A leading editorial of the Richmond Enqutrer, re- hashed from the Savannah Courter, snarling at us for our criticism of Mr. Stiles’ Austrian book, culpgiges it as the production of *‘ the late able minister to that country, and brother of the Rev. Mr. Stiles, a few years since the eloquent and popular Presbyterian minister in this city.” And in a state- ment, in the usual loose English characteristic of the Washington Union classics, informs us that, at a cer- tain period during the late Democratic Canvention, “the editor of the Democratic Review approached Mr. Stiles, and, in the presence of Major Lally and Mr. F. Doyle, of Washington, told Mr. Stiles that he bad written and published his work on Austria.” This must have been an important announcement to Mr. Stiles, whether understood as informing him that, he was the author of his own book, or that the editor of the Review was the author, which would be an exquisite joke. But the mode of statirg the proposition is quite characteristic of the whole fogy clique which utters such damning fulminations against the Review generally, my letter generally, and the Young America party—in Congress and out —generally. e statement that follows, of my at- tempting to bribe Mr. Stiles into the suppres of Doug- las, by promising a favorable notice of his book, isan absolute falsehood, whether received directly or in- (ek, from Mr. Stiles. Mr. stytagleircd far from showing any opposi- tion to Douglas or the Review in my presence, either at the Baltimore Convention, or before. During his stay in New York, previous to the publication of his book, he made every demonstration of approbation of the course of the Review 3 and on his return from Georgia he congratulated me on the triumph of Young America in his State, introducing me, with reat ppperene cordiality, to several members of his lelegation, and assuring me that I might rely on the hearty co-operation of the State Rights delegates from Georgia. From these declarations, he was treated as an ally, and nothing passed between us but of a friendly character. My letters from Paris, in the summer of 1849, which were extensively published in the United States, strongly condemn Mr. Stiles’s course at the court of Austria, and will show that I was not in- fluenced in my cerpeoral by anything that occurred at Baltimore. The Review is not more severe on his book than my letters were on his conductas Minister; but from the earnest indications of his enthusiastic admiration of the progressive wing of the democracy, I supposed, at the time of the Convention, that he had reformed his opinions, and that his forthcoming work would prove it. 1 did not, however, promise, in any event, to change the course of the Review, and make ita of Mr. Stiles’s, or any one’s book. The Review is its own defender from such a charge as tas It has been consistently never a flatterer in my a It is the gentlemen who sustain Mr. Stifts’s bookas the work of ‘‘the late able minister to Austria,” and who exhaust themselves by senseless attacks iy the Review, who claim to be the true representatives of the democratic partys They call themselves con- servative democrats. This isa poor deception. Let them call themselves whig democrats, and the coun- try will understand them. A conservative democrat isa whig.

The policy of the Review has been consistently directed to the enlightened expansion of the country, and the elevation of the national thought.

It has con- tinued for more than a week, and the prospect is that it will increase rather than diminish. The break down in Cumberland has, doubtless, tended very much to depress others. The depreciation in the market value of coal stocks generally, has been a large per cent, and in Cumberland it is likely to be still greater. The report recently issued by this company has not helped the stock, as holders anti- cipated, but on the contrary has been the principal cause of the decline. The immense capital reported has frightened speculators, and there is really nothing in the report giving the slightest hope that anything in the shape of a dividend can be earned, at least for some years. As it now stands, it is a gigantic shell. There appears to be nothing, in the shape of internal resources, calculated to give holders confi- dence in its ultimate value, and much disappoint- ment has been experienced. So much has been said about its rich veins of coal, so much said about its mining operations, so much expected from the amal. gamation of conflicting interests in the same district, that parties interested have been sorely disappointed, and exhibit an eagerness to abandon the concern, calculated to result in great sacrifices For some time past large lots of the stock of this company have been hypothecated, and prices have been well sustained. For weeks the market value hardly varied two per cent, and outsiders were, toa limited extent, induced to take hold of it. Months ago we called for a and comprehensive exhibit of the company’s affairs, in consequence of the conflict- ing reports in circulation. We had a desire to get at, if possible, the real condition of the company’ affhirs. After considerable delay, it has appeared and those interested can judge for themselves. The report speaks for itself, and the effect is visible in the movements of the stock. The American Ex- change Bank is deeply involved, either directly or indirectly, in this Cumberland Coal and Iron Com- pany, and it is probable that measures have been taken to get out of it. As the margin on stock hy- pothecated runs out, it will come upon the market, and there is no limit to the depreciation. Its real value is entirely prospective, and its prospects are by nomeans flattering. The great difficulty in all coal companies is the length of time required to develope their resources, and the great error has been in an- ticipated immediate returns. With some of the companies on the market, it may be only a question of time, in showing their great v@lue or productive- ness, while with others the more that is known o them, the less the market value is likely to be. It will require years to bring the coal com. panies of the Cumberland region up to a state of moderate productiveness. The available capacity of the Ohesapeake and Ohio Canal and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, has been most extravagantly over- rated. The railroad cannot possibly bring down, during the present year, (1853,) more than four hundred thousand tons, and the canal cannot bring down more than six hundred thousand tons of coal, even with a great addition to its boat tonnage. This makes an aggregate of one million of tons, to be divided among all the coal companies of that dis- trict. We leave it for those interested to figure up how much each company will be entitled to, or how much each can get of this aggregate to market. Speculators have not stopped to calculate the probability of each of the new coal companies get- ting to tide water enough coal to pay even the most trifling dividend. Had they done so, they would have found that (perhaps with one or two excep- tions) there is not a company, at the best, that will pay anything more than current expenses of mining, and many not even that. At the first board to-day, Nicaragua Transit de- clined 3 per cent; Cumberland, 2); Canton Com- pany}; Montgomery Mining, 4; Portsmouth, 3 ; Phosnix, 1; Llangollen, 4; Sixth Avenue Railroad, }; Erie Railroad, 1}; Harlem, 4; Norwich and Worces- ter, 4; Reading Railroad, $; Long Island, j. Parker Vein advaneed 3 per cent. But for an active demand for Cumberland and some of the other fancies from the bears, for delivery on maturing contracts made at much higher prices, the market would not have been so well sustained as reported. The decline in several atocks have been so great that the bears feel gratified in realizing the difference in their favor. As soon as their deliveries are made, and the demand from the bears ceases, we may look for another depreciation. At the second board there was a slight rally in some of the fancies, while others fell off. Cumberland ad- vanced 1 per cent; Parker Vein, 1; Morris Canal, j; Erie Railroad, }; Reading Railroad, 4. Canton Com- pany declined 1 per cent; Hudson Railway, }; Sixth Avenue Railroad, 3; Panama, 1. The steamship Pacific, at this port from Liverpool, brings four days later advices from all parts of Eu- rope. The news does not amount tomuch. The cotton accounts are not so favorable as those previ- ously received. Prices remained without material alteration, but there was no activity among opera- tors. Breadstuffs were slightly better, both as regards prices and demand. The advance in consols is indi- cative of a firmer feeling in the money market.
