Indeed, if we make proper allowance for the superior vigi- lance and organization of the metropolitan police of London, and for the notorious inefi- ciency of our own police force, we shall probably find that, in proportion to the popu- lation, there is in New York twice as much crime as in London. This is an appalling ment or the contractors, they being content to wait for their pay till the next Congress as- sembles.

In addition to the numerous offences which have been brought against Spring, we learn, that in the year 1833, while he was residing in Newfoundland, he was arrested on a charge of having, in connection with a woman, caused the death of a. man named Snow. They were both found guilty, and the woman wasexecuted; but Spring, after being reprieved, was finally banished,.ond came tothe United States. The woman was the wife of the murdered man.

This was in the usual form of such notes. But when it was found that the service ought to commence before.an appropri- virtue is neither purchased by lordly profl- imperious cry of want—where we have every reason to be moral. and none to tread the paths of crime—New York, with its hundreds of priests, and scores of benevolent societies, actu ally contains nearly seven criminals out o every hundred inhabitants. city. Mr. Matsell informs us that one hundred and seventy-eight are “detailed” to do special duty at the courts, &c. He complains of this arrangement, on the ground that it imposes heavier duties on some of the men than on others, and diminishes the number of available officers for night watches; and informs | us—the announcement is, unfortunately, no matter of surprise—that the evil is due to the system of favoritism, or corruption, now estab- lished. A policeman, says he. who has influen- tial friends, can obtain an appointment to an easy birth, while duties heavier than they can discharge are imposed upon his less fortunate comrades. To clamor about favoritism in this department, while the whole municipal organi- zation of the city is believed to be corrupt, rotten and worthless, from rind to core, would be waste of time—we pass it over. But it may fifteen blocks to guard. How preposterous to expect that one man can prevent crime, or de- tect offenders, on such an extensive beat as this! London, covering of course a vastly larger area, is guarded by 3.700 mea at night. In the populous quarters of the city a majority of the beats can be traversed in from seven to ten minutes, and none require a longer period than twenty-five minutes. Inthe neighborhood of St. Paul’s no inconsiderable ingenuity is needed to get out of sight of a ‘policeman. We have already alluded to the bills now be- fore the Legislature for the reform of the police system of New York. The project reported by Mr. Shaw contains some valuable suggestions, one of which we beg to commend to the notice of the Legislature. One relates to the uniform inefficiency of our police may be traced to the difficulty of identifying them in a crowd. The ation. the contract itself was varied so as to to meet the understanding of those having it in charge. The contract, therefore, was duly signed dur- ing the last administration, and an order from the department since, dated the 7th of this month, has been issucd for the commencement carrying out in good faith what was well under stood at the time. In fact, the Mexican mail company are now making their arrangements with all possible despatch ; the stcamers are ready on both oceans, and the road across Mex- ico will be stocked in two or three months at furthest for the transportation of the mails. With this statement we hope our Southern triends will be satisfied that we have not appro- priated the five loaves and two fishes, to give them only the empty baskets. On the whole, it is rather curious to find them complaining when they have just secured this important con- tract. which is worth to them as much as all the other California mail service. especially as this route may make us dependant on New Orleans for our earliest news from the Pacific. Tue Bririsn 1 Honpvras.—The English go- vernment would seem to be determined to test visit of the war steamer Devastation to the port of Truxillo, and the threats of bombardment under which the commandant was compelled to accede to the unjustifiable demands of England, in withdrawing the troops from Limas. one of the ports of Honduras, are sufficient evidence of this sentiment. We were the first in this lati- tude to publish the intelligence of such bellicose doings in Central America ; our correspondent at Belize having communicated the facts to one of our agents at New Orleans, who for- warded them tous.

I saw three slaves— one g little girl—the property of a very pious Bap- tist lady,whose feet had been so badly frozen that part of their toes had fallen aff. It was nothing un- commonto see their feet cracked and bleeding with the trost. Here we stop. It is quite enough of Mrs. Swissheim. There are other portions of her letter unfit for publication; but such is its rabid fanaticism, and unfeminine grossness through- out. in style and details, that if it goes to the ladies of England, as we doubt not it will, this “strong minded woman” will astonish even the Bloomers with the masculine roughness of her voice. But, as in England Mrs. Swisshelm philanthropy the ladies of England can hardly afford to waste their tears over Mrs. Swisehelm. Tus 1 THE Day.—The President and the cabinet, and the Senate, and the members of the old Congress, and the members of the new Congress, and the office-seekers. have had the interval from Thursday last to work up the appointments which are expected to be sent into the Senate to-day. Among these are the missions to England, France, and Spain ; and it is generally understood that Messrs. Bu- chanan, Wise, and Soulé are to be the men, Perhaps there may also be some others seat up of the diplomatic corps. Perhaps they may all be deferred yet for some days. Then. again it is fices will be disposed of; but here, in spite of all the light and influence of Mike Walsh and "Tur Orgrs.—To night Madame Sontag takes her congé to the public of New York.

Shemakes her farewell in ‘‘Sonnambula.”?

After he has given concerts in all the principal cities, he will re- turn to this metropolis, in time to astonish and captivate the visiters to the World’s Fair. On Saturday we briefly announced the demise of the Hon. Judge Judson, which took place at Canterbury, Con- necticut, on Thursday last. Andrew T. Judson was born at Ashford, Windham county, Connecticut; he was of re- spec'able family, and one of his brothers was « elerzy- ‘man. He did not graduate at aay college, but had the ad- vantage of the echools of his native State. Having stu- died his profession, he establiched himself in Canterbury, where he continued to reside until Thursday, the 17th of March instant, when he died, at about the age of sixty- eight years. At an early period he attached himself to the demo- eratic party, and gained considerable public notoriety. ‘When tbat party came into power in Connecticut, in the year 1877, Mr. Judson was brought forward and ap point- ed Slate Atiorney—prosecuting officer—for the county of Windham. He represented the town of Canterbury in the Legielature with repttation, and became one of the of- ficers of the House. He was also a high officer of militia, a colonel, aad we believe ho rose to the rank of general. Mr. Judson was distinguished for his prominence in many important cases, particularly in that of Prudence Cran. dall, which arose in this manner:—The abolitionists es- (magistrates). The selectmen of the town of Canterbury refused to give Mise Crandall « license; yet she con- tinued, in defiance of the law, to eonduet the school, and she was subsequently indieted, and Mr. Jud- fon conducted the prosecution on behalf of the State, The cause was tried before Chief Justice Dag- gett, and rome of the most distinguished members of the bar volunteered to defend Mra Crandall. The coustitutionslity of probibiting the schools without a license was denied, and the great quertion was, whether the law was constitutional or not. The defence set up was, that the tlacks were freeborn subjects of - chusetts, and, as sueh, were entitled to all the pri of the United States within the State of Connecticut. Judson contended that the blacks were not citizens under the constitution, and the jury found a verdict akainst Mrs, Cracall. ‘This cause waw carried up to the Court of Appeals, and the result was they broke up the school and drove the blaek «chi out of that State This decision was a reluctant one on the part of Judge Daggett, all his feelings and inclinations being the othor way ; but, aa judicial fanetionary, he decided accordiny tothe law. Mr. Judson afterwards became member o! Congress, during the administration of President Van dent to fill his place, which he did with ability up to the hour of his Ceath, It was during his time that the some- what celebrated case of the schooner Amistad was themat spuriow reenwich streets, orelsewhere?
