MeCLENACHEN, Clerk, ‘This Board met at the usual hour last evening, ant Alderman Woodward presiding, in the temporary ab- sence of the President, Mr. Trotter. After the reading of the minutes and the reception of petitions, Dan. H. Hunt, from the Tenth ward, pre- sented the following preamble and resolutions:— Whereas, this city is rife with aecusations of the gravest character against the Corporation of New York— accu-ations that unpleasantly and injuriously aifest the reputation of the newly elected members of the Board of Assistant Aldermen from the Fifth, Tenth, Thirteenth, Kighteenth, and Nineteenth wards, who have been mem- bers of the Corporation but little more than two months, and who are very unjustly confounded with other mem- bers, ofeither Board, who have been connected with the tion during the past year and years; and eas, it seems extremely bard that the newly elect- ed members of the Board of Assistant Aldermen from the Fifth, Tenth, Thirteenth, kighteenth, and Ninoteenth wards, should thus be confounded with, and answerable (im the absence of just discrimination} for the blackest Grimes of others, and be hovted at av public robbers as they pass through the streets, and be targets for ridicule animadyersion in the social circle; and ‘Whereas, in the year 1837 an accusation was made in the New York Courier and Enquirer, by the “Spy in Wi D,” alias M.L. Davis, its Washington corres pondent, that a member of Congress bad received money as a bribe—(a charge that elicited a debate that led to the fatal Cilley duel)—for the prostitution of his vote or his influence in Congress, or with the Eaperinee to the pe- cuniary benefit of an individual; an Whereas, the “Spy alias M. L. Davis, was directed, by a vote of the House of Representatives of the United States, to appear at the bar of the House, and inform the Congress aud the whole country, under oath, who the member thus aceused was, asan act of jus- tiee te those members of Congress whose reputation waa 40 indiscriminately and seriously impaired thereby: and ‘Whereas, it is boldly asserted by the press and the peo- ple at large, that members of the present Common Coun- cil are proprietors. directly or indirectly, of the Roosevelt, Wall street, and the rew extreme southern Williamsburg ferry, and other ferries; that the Second, Third, Sixth and Lighth avenue railroads were obtained from the Com- mon Council through bribes amounting to several hun- dred thousand dollars, wken allof the present members were in the Common Council, except the members of the Board of Assistant Aldermen from the Fifth, Tenth, Thir- teemth, Eighteenth and Nineteenth wards; that those members who voted for the Broadway railroad are to re- ceive $20,000 each in its stock, irrespective of what they may already have received; and ereas, the Sunday Atlas, of Feb. 13, 1853, in connec- tion with several columns of similar charges, says. —‘ Our attention has been called to a member of the Common Council, who, when he entered the board, a year ago, was troubled with an empty wallet, and was five thousand dellars indebt. He has since paid his debts, like an honest man—invested twenty thousand dollars in real es- tate—spent three thousand dollars in furnishing a new rouse, and only two or three weeks ago” invested $3,500 inaninsurarce company. This Alderman, who, on the first of January, 1852 was $5 000 worse off than nothing, is now worth, at the least estimate, full $30,000, and ina certain contingency, dependent upon the result of certain railroad grants, may be worth $100,000;" and Whereas, the committee appointed five da the Board of Assistant Aldermen, to investig: disgusting matters, was, on a motion, (which was ardent- ly sustained by Assistant Alderman Barker, of the Fif- teenth ward,) refused the power to send for persons and ; and Wefriaarees; this Committee of Investigation has ot even been summoned by its chairwan, (Assistant Alderman Bouton, of the Eleventh ward.) for the consideration of matters that so deeply agitate the public mind, and in. volve the very being of the poorest classes of society. who, by indirect and overwhelming taxation. are literally driven to the very jaws of famine, into the inclementaod imbospitable air, and unto prostitution aud p-emature graves, through the shameless, heartless, sudacious and wi robberies said to have been committed b; members of the corporation, who (church members ani ‘all), if guilty thereof, should receive the ceaseless execra- tions of the living—be incarcerated through all their mise- rable days, and be tortured through undying ages; therefore, Resolved, That a special committee be appointed (with power to send for persons and = to supersede the eommittee appointed by the Board of Assistant Alder- men, for the consideration of these matters, on Monday last, whose chairman has so mysteriously failed to dis. charge his official duty, in this most exciting and extra. ordinary crisis in eur municipal affairs ; and Resolved, That the editors and proprietors of the Sun- day Atlas be summoned to appear at the bar of the Board of Assietant Aldermen, and. under oath, disclose to this Beard, and to the whole city, the name of the vile mem- ber of the Common Council alluded to in the above ex tract from their journal, and answer all other questions that may be propounded to them ; and, finally, Resolved, That George Law, Kipp & Brown, Aléerman A. A. Denman, and Oliver Charlick, be summoned to ap- pear at the bar of the Board of Assistant Aldermen, and answer such questions as may be put to them, under oath. Only a portion of the foregoing reselutions were per- mitted to be read, as one of the members objected to their reception as improper, «nd contrary to the rules, the subject being before a committee appointed to inves- ite it. eae Barkxe thought this movement was rather emature. As a member of that commitiee, said he, I ‘| disposed to investigate the matter which has been duly referred to us by this Board. The committee has been sppointed, he continued, especially for the purpose of investigating it, and | am opposed, at this stage of the Proceedings, to any member of this body introducing reso- lutions that may in any way conflict with the course which that committee may pursue. We shall have a meeting very soon, and I suppose it will be the duty of that meeting to investigate this subject in a manner that will refiect honor upon the Board as well as upon the committee. I don’t see the necessity now of i these resolutions and, as I said before, I think mittee will show itsélf competent to perform the before it. in Washington, Alderman Bovrow said something here, but he spoke so | inaudibly that we were unable to hear him. lowed by Alderman Hus, of the Tenth ward, the author of the preamble and resolutions. He said he was also a member of the Committee, and that he spoke to the Chairman, Alderman Bouton, about two days ago. in relation to this matter, and was told by him that he did not know whether he would call the meeting of the Committee till after the adjournment of the Board. I expected, continued Alder: man Hunt. to be notified that it would be called the next ba Arte the Committee was appointed In justice to t up now for consideration. Alderman BarkeR—I move to have them referred tothe Committee. As far as I understand these resolutio their object is to summon certain gentlemen before tl He was fol- Board. New, we know that this Board is constituted the only tribunal for the imyeaciiment of officers connected with the city government. We have appointed a com mittee of investigation, and it is due to that committee that nothing should be done till it determines the course it shall pursue. [have no doubt that this committee will, at their first meeting, adopt some rules for this investigation, and that it will ask of this Board the power to enforce those rules. Iam opposed to any interference from r,a4 improper and out of se. I believe that ev: member of this committee tends to go on as speedily as possible with this business, and I therefore move that the resolutions be referred to the committee. Alderman Bowroy moved to lay the resolutions on the table. Alderman KixG.—I move that they be rned to the gentleman who offered them, (Alderman Hunt.) as the: are an insult to the Board and the gentlemen who com- Pose the committee.

So it was decided that the pre- amble and resolutions should be laid upon the table.

[From the Savannah Republican, March 3.) Captain Sawyer, of the steamship Courar has laced us in possession of late Nassau and Kin, ss papers, from which we glean a few items of in- jerest. The Bahama Legislature met at Nassau on the 22d ult. G. C. Anderson was chosen Speaker—a position he bas filled formany years—and Joshua Brook Chief Clerk. At3 P.M. Governor Gregory went to the council chamber, where the House, headed by the Speaker, attended, and the Legislature was for- mally opened. The speech (or message) of the Governor is a succinct and well-written document, and presents rather a favorable view of the state of the colony. The Governor says he has entertained and fre- juently expressed to the legislative bodies an earnest desire to promote the advent to that colony of vale- tudenarians, and their families, from Canada and the United States. He availed himself of a recent visit to Philadelphia and New York, to spread abroad the advantages which the winter climate of the Rghamas holds out to those who are suffering from pulmonary weakness. “The recent establishment of a monthly mail steamer between Nassau and Savannah,” he adds, ‘‘has already had the effect, within the present month, of bringing to the islands no inconsiderable number of American families, in search of health. This,” he thinks, ‘‘is an indication of what may be expected if a monthly steamer should be once esta- blished between Nassan and New York; and he still continues to entertain a “ep Se hope that the act of 1851 will, ere long, come into operation, and that he may be permitted to witness that increase in the value of houses, and suburban land, and that im- provement in the agricultural and commercial inter- ests of the colony generally, which, in his opinion, cannot fail to flow from a constant stream of passen- gers coming to their shores for health, and return- ing with renewed strength, to encourage others to follow in their steps.” He adds:—‘In the meantime, I doubt not that, with myself, you duly appreciate the opportunity which the Royal | Mail Steam Packet Nain’ has afforded to the | inhabitants of this island and Inagua of proceed | ing to and from Savannah by @ monthly steamer, | and of keeping up a regular correspondence with | America. I hope to induce her Majesty's govern- ment to improve our means of corresponding with England through the instrumentality of the trans atlantic steamers between Liverpool and New York. “In my anxiety to see the colony improve, I have | long wished that some means of deepening the har- | bor of Nassau should be found, so as to admit steam- ers and ships of war of any size. I did hope that the Naval Commander-in-Chief in these seas would have been enabled to visit the Bahamas, and would thus have had an opportunity of judging, from per- | sonal observation, whether it would not be both practicable and wise to assist the colony in the ac- eomplishment of a work in which both national and colonial interests are so deeply involved ; but, unfor- tunately, it appears from a communication which I have received from him, and which will he laid before ; | you, that while he has every desire to avail himself | of your invitation do so.” The finances of the colony are in a satisfactory condition. | The total net revenue in 1860 was | In 188... oe eae | In 1852, . a see 26,104 | _ By this it appears that in two years the income | has advanced tothe extent of £4,000 a year—a large increase considering the small amount of the revenue. The Governor thinks that the increase of revenue last year was attributable mainly to the sale of pro- perty saved from ships wrecked on the coast.

The three principal exports in 1852—fruit, salt, and sponge— fell short of those of 1 Last year, pineapples, oranges, and other fruit were exported to the valua of £10,550; while in 1851 the value was £12,600— showing a decrease of £1,750. The export of salt in 1852, amounted to £14,440; whereas in 1551 it was £16.500—showing a decrease of £2,080. The sponge trade shows the foliowing figures :— 1850 was £5,700 . 14,000 = 11,257 is proposed to erect a fourth lighthouse in the Le ae Islands, to be placed on the Great Isaac Rock. The Bahama Herald is urging upon the people of Nassau the necessity of the establishment of a com- medious hotel. In this connection, it refers to the arrival there of a number of persons from Savannah seeking a mere genial air, as the strongest evidence | which can be adduced of its necessity.

Hauirax, Feb. 24, 1853. Opposition to the Railway Buls—Probability of a New Election—Fishery Papers—Reply of the British Government Expressive of the Views of the Present Ministry on the Subjcct. Since I last wrote nothing has occurred at all in- teresting. In the Assembly the opposition are still working against the government railway bills;7so de- termined are they, that I should not be surprised if our railwa; ere again postponed for another twelvemonth.

M. ship Devastation, on the ground of irregu- larity of transfer. The following reply to the address of the Mayor and citizens of Halifax,which appeared in the HERALD at the time, on the subject of the fisheries, was re- ceived by the last mail, and is of peculiar importance from the circumstance of its being an official exposi- tion of the determination of the present ministry in relation to any negotiation which may take place on the subject, and the animus of a treaty : — DowNine Srnzer, Feb. 8, 1853. Sm—My predecessor, Sir John Pakington, received your despatch, No. 13, of the 2d September last, trans- mitting two addresses adopted by # public meeting at Halifax, on the subject of the pending negotiations be- tween this country and the United States, respecting the fisheries, but he postponed the communication of his views on that despatch in consequence of the pressure of other correspondence on the same subject, and left it un- answered on quitting office. You will inform the Mayor of Halifax, and the nu- merous and influential body of memorialists, that their petition was laid before Her Majesty, who was pleased to receive the same very graciously. The inhabitants of Halifax may rely on the determina- tion of Her Majesty’s government that, in the pending commercial negotiation with the United States of America, the interests of the North American possessions of Her Majesty will Le carefully considered—the prosperity of thoxe parts of the empire being the leading object kept in view Dy them in the | provisions of the intended treaty. Ihave, Se. NEWCASTLE. The Lieut. Governor of Nova Scotia. Marca 3, 1853. The railroad scheme seems to have come toa “ dead lock,” Mr. Howe having moved, on Wednes- day, that when the railroad shall have progressed as far as where the branch lines should diverge, they be built simultaneously with the remainder, unless the trunk line in New Brunswick to the boundary | would be finished sooner than that of Nova Scotia, which was carried by the casting vote of the chair- man—a factious amendment proposed by Mr. John- son having been negatived—but afterwards lost in the House by a vote of 27 to 25. On the following morning this was rescinded by the casting vote of the Speaker—one of the opposition having changed sides. With a state of the House so nearly balanced, it is not probable the government will proceed with the measure ; and a petition at this juncture having been | presented in favor of the passage of bills constituting railroad companies, Mr. Howe intimated that no further steps would betaken until the moneyed men had been afforded an opportunity of showing what they are really disposed to do—their real object, as he conceived, being to obstruct the government. From present appearances, it seems almost certain that there will be a dissolution of the Assembly, and another appeal to the people. G. Naval Intelligence.

ACCIDENT AT THE ORLEANS THEATRE.—A sad accident hap- pened last evening, says the New Orleans Bee, of the 4th inst., at the Orleans theatre, during the performance of Donizetti’s opera, ‘The Martyrs.” A large chandelier, in which a quantity of alcohol was burning, came near being upret, and a portion of the liquid fell upon Mad’lle Fleury Joly's dress, which immediately took fire. Mad’lle Fleury Joly fled hurriedly, but she was fortunately thrown down and the fire put out. She received no injury what. ever, but her niece, Made. Diguet, whilst running to her assistance, upset another chandelier, and her clothes hay- ing caught fire, there was a scramble among the ladies on the stage, followed by a general exit. For a few mo- ments we really thought that all would share Made. Di- guet’s fate, and be the victims of their own mad fears; but the men who were standing by rushed on the stage and put out the flames that had already consumed the whole of Made. J ignet’s light gauze dress. We are sorry to learn that she is severely, though not dangerously burnt. After a recess of @ quarter of an hour, occa- sioned by the accident, the performance was renewed and the opera concluded without further trouble.

Again, in the last act, where Romeo dies, at the moment the Friarenters, the g,"een curtain fell! The laughter and hisses of the audience baving caused its being raised again, lo! and behold, « dog trots across the boards, walks’ coolly around the d.*#4 nd living, and finally was Jed off the stage, amia’ ¢brieks of laughter from all parts of the house.
