The principal horse market in New York is at Bull's Head, on the corner of Twenty-fourth strect and Third avenue. It consists of about fifteen sta- les, all of which are capable of containing from | Bfteen hundred to two thousand horses. There are ‘no regular market days, nor is there a general mart at which the animals are exposed for sale, each deal- « er preferring to sell from his own stable. The ave- yage number disposed of daily, during the year, is tstimated at one hundred, but there are some days, when the business is parttcularly brisk, that two hundred are sold. Some of the stables are admirably artanged and fitted up for the accommodation of the Siorses. They are perfect curiosities in their way, «and would well repay a visit, if any of our readers should have a desire to see them. A large number sare constructed of stone, and present an exterior of no ordinary architectural pretensions. The interior pf all is bay fat be the se haariiric -arrangemen\ ing pre enerally observed in -pach. The stalls’ ate 90. constructed that an al- Jey-way is left between cach row, and this is provided with a drain to cal off all the eordure. There ap) to be no distinction made in ‘the treatment of the animals, eo far as the general rnality of their food and their accommodations are -goncerned. The bob-tailed horse is placed on a per- poids omy with the horse which has been more fave in the proportions of bis candal extremities. Some, indeed, are ofteg curtailed of their fair propor- ations, to suit the perverted tastes of their owners. ‘This involves an operation of considerable annoy- cance to the x animal. The hair is cut short, or alocked, and the tendons of the tail severed, after ‘Which it is turned up, and kept ina reversed pet tion by means of a cord tied to the ceiling. This horse @ spruce appearance look of Diampoces about the pong ty among horse dealers, and at Bull’s Head, rappel it appears to be extensivel, ‘he exhibition present- ed by the luring the period king extremely ludicrous. It is not unusual to see twenty or thirty’ in o range, with their tails cut and drawn up as tight as a popes le to the ceiling, in the mauner we have desc . rtion of the animals sold at the Bull's Tasdtae’ carat by the keepers of the stables, a large number being disposed of by persons who make ‘a business of bu; them from farmers in dif- ferent parts of this State, Pennsylvania, Maine, Mas- sachusetts, Ohio, and other States. These may not improperly be termed speculators in horses, for their ‘business has all the mowrrocray of speculation about it, They sometimes make a hundred per cent on their purchases; and where there is a rapid sale, so that their profits are not absorsed by stable ex- penses, they become rich ina few years. Asa gene- ra] thing it is not a very lucrative oecupation, isat- tended with considerable losses and risks. Sometimes @ horse will remain three or four weeks, and even longer, upon their hands, while they are occasion- ally mistaken in his qualities. It is very seldom, however, thatthe dealers are mistaken, and they generally make the most of their bargains. They are pretty shrewd and calculating, and it would re- quire no ordinary degree of cunning to get the bet- ter of them in the purchase of a horse. Some ani- mals are sent to the stables at Bull’s Head to be sold on commission, their owners paying for their stabling in the interim. It is about fifteen Ngee since it was established, during which time its business has increased to a considerable extent, though not ina depree at all commensurate. with the growth of the city. The number of horses sold there daily is smallin com- arison with the number disposed of throughout ‘ew York, Hundreds change hands every on at private sale, of which no account whatever is taken; while omnibus proprietors, railroad companies, and others, who employ immense numbers, buy a great many in the country, and have them sent in droves by steamboat or railroad. All kinds of horses can be bought at the Bull’s Head, from the common cart horse to the best quality of.a roadster, of which there is generally @ large force constantly on hand. WHAT BECOMES OF ALL THE DEAD HORSES ¢ AN ACCOUNT OF BARREN ISLAND. It will naturally be asked what becomes of the thousands of horses that die every year in this city; and after relating where they come from, and the various uses to which they are put, our article would be incom- plete if we did not tell also where they go to. About @ year ago, our readers will remember, the most in- veterate war was waged against the bone boiling establishments in the upper part of the city. A large number of these had been permitted, through the supineness and indifference of our municipal authorities, to carry on their business to the great detriment of the public health, and the interests of property holders in the wards where they were established. Frequent complaints were made against them by the people living in their vicinity; the effiuvia that proceeded from them yas almost insup- portable; and it was alleged by competent medical anthority that they engendered diseases of a most malignant and fatal character. The excessive mor- tality in our city during the prevalence of the cholera and other epidemics was attributed to the poisonous exhalations that arose from the are carcases of horses, cows, and other animals, whic! accumulated about them. They at last became so intolerable that it was eopons to take strenuous measures for their removal. ‘The former City In- spector, Dr. White, being invested with the requisite authority, commenced a regular system of warfare against them, demolishing the buildings wherever they could be found, and threatening to prosecute their owners if he detected them again at the same occupation within the limits of the island. Their re- moval it was thought would remedy the grievance of which our city had such just cause of complaint. The bone boilers, it is true, were most effectual ly put down for the time being, but the putrefying carcases and offul still remained, and were as offensive as ever. Various propositions were suggested, by which the city was to be relteved of them ; they were thrown into the rivers, in the hope that they would be carried out to sea, but the returning tide conveyed them safely back, and in a few weeks the docks were full of them. Failing in this, another mode was devised, which proved equally ineffectual. Heavy stones were attached to them, but after lying a few weeks under water, they arose to the surface in a disgusting state of decomposition. Meantime the bone boilers, routed out of the city, attempted to establish themselves on the Jersey shore and on one | of the islands in the East river, but mecting with the | same opposition there, they were compelled to give up the business. The City Inspector, Dr. White, was directed by a resolution of the Common Council, to contract for the removal of the dead animals— horses, cows, dogs, cats, butcher's offal, and the gar- bess from hotels. An arrangement was accord- ingly made with Stephen Coles, and subsequently with William B. Reynolds, in consequence of the inability of the former to fulfil the contract. Since this agreement was entered into the city has not been afflicted with nuisances of the character described. One or two attempts were made by the bone boilers to re-establish their business, but they have been allowed no respite by the City ‘Tnspector. Mr. Reynolds, before applying for the contract, pro- cured @ lease of one of the numerous sand banks which lie along the side of Long Island, near Sheeps Head Bay. This bank is not inappropriately called Barren Ieland, the only vegetation it produces being & coarse grass dnd some stunted cedars. Ita location | and tet character render it peculiarly adapted for the purpose to which it has been applied. {ndeed, it appears as ifnature had especially igned it for the receptacle of the refuse es the city. The rincipal objection hithereto urgefl against ‘the es- \blishment of bone boi factories, was their prox- imity to the city; but he a place more than twelve miles distant it and four miles away from any human habitation, if we except the horses of those employed in it. It lies al Long Island, and is very difficult of access to boats of. a large tonnage, on account of the shoals by which it is surrounded. A steamboat has been built express! for the purpose of beer At offal and dead ani- mals from this city to a se factory constructed for the purpose, in which from’ fifteen to pk persons are employed in skinning them, and other work connected with the bone boiling business. ‘The number of dead horses brought to this island every year is between 4,000 and 5,000, which forms about ‘one-fifth part of the offal and other matter formerly left to decay in our city, breeding eer in our midst. e Common Council, in coma with the terms of the con- tract made with Mr. Reynolds, appropriated two docks—one at the foot of 'Thirty-fourth street, East river, and the other at the foot of Fortieth street, North river—where the refuse matter could be placed on board of barges, to be afterwards transferred to the steamboat, and sentto Barren Island. A sum sufficient to ar the expense of its removal was allowed; for, as all other methods of relieving the city of the nuisance had failed, our authorities were glad to get rid of it on such easy terms. About forty men and thirty horses are employed daily in removin; the offal, dead animals, and garbage, from differen’ arts of the city extending from the Battery to King’s ridge to the two docks already mentioned. This force is distributed in the following manner:—There are five two horse carts constantly engaged in taking away the refuse of the slaughter honses, one in re- moving garbage from the hotels, and eight in con- stant use for collecting dead horses, cows, &c. The drivers of these are required to visit, two or three times a day, each station house, and the office of the City Inspector, where boxes are kept for the recep- tion of orders relative to dead animals. They are also directed to call at the railroad depots and cow stables, at whieh they never fail in finding work for their horses. Mr. Reynolds has a lease of the island for fifteen years, and his contract with the city is for five. He has about fifteen persons employed in the rather repulsive occupation of skinning horses and other dead animals, and in converting what was be- fore the cause of disease and death, into s source of profit and utility. Every day, the steamer, punctual as the tide, lands her cargo at a dock constructed on the most accessible part of the island. Some day when the mortality among horses is excessive, she brings as many as thirty carcases. In the summer there are more deaths among them than at any other season of the year, in consequence of the heat, though the winter also produces dn abundant harvest, a large number being killed upon the frozen pave- ments. At one time the ies became pee etly coated with ice, and as it was impossible to skin them while in this condition, they were allowed to collect until a pile, consisting of ‘about two hundred and fifty, had been formed. The process of ee per- formed with astonishing rapidity—not more than an hour elapsing after the arrival of the boat before the bodies are divested of their natyral covering, cut up into quarters, and thrown‘into immense cauldrons, where they are boiled till the flesh literally dro ‘the bones. There are three or four of these cauldrons —the largest of which is capable of containing the remains of forty-five horses. The odor arising from these is most sickening ; but those who are accus- tomed to it, to use their own words, “ think nothing of it.” As soon as the flesh is sufficiéntly boiled, the rocess gives the tail a peculiar set, which it ever Brewin, “the growth of the hair, we believe, Js arrested by cering the skin; but in some cases this cruel practice is not resorted to, the owner ing: %o cut it when it becomes too long.

The boneg when calcined are also used in refining sugar. Besides the steamboat, there are bal alsoengaged in removing dead animals from the city, all of which are constantly employed during the summer. This is the most unpleasant season of the year for those who are occupied in this business. That portion of the island ve which the fact is built, swarms with flies of every variety, from the largest descrip- tion of blue-bottle to the most diminutive midge, and the heaps of decaying animal matter are literally alive with magots. is not @ very pleasant pic- ture, but still, uninviting as the “lone, barren isle” appears, the families of those employed in the facto- He lee on it, despite of both odor and flies.

England has always been proverbial for the proteetion she affords her subjects. The Englishman in Milan, ia Rome, in Russia, or in Canton, feels that, though far dis- tant he may be from his native land, he still stands under the protecting arm of bis country and his Queen. Few mouths have passed since we have witnessed an iustration of this fact. Mr Boylan, an English gentle- man, long residing in Cuba, seeing the heart-rending scenes of tyranny and oppression daily enacted in that unhappy isle, gave utterance to his honest indignation at such crimes, conscious that his person-and his pro- perty were surrounded by the palladium of his country; But lt happened otherwise, for'in the midéle of the night he was taken from his howe and clapped in the cala- bouse. His fate was of course decided. General Canedo had already estimated the value of his to-be sequestrated property, and he would have been now on his way to Ceuta, but for the conrage of an honest Creole, who was his friend, and who, fearless of the consequences, wrote to General Canedo, informing him that his prisoner was an Englishmai t he had been guilty of no crime, and that his character was unimpeachable. “Jo ido ?? exclaimed Canedo, whea he had read the letter. We haye caught a tartar—this prison- er {s an Englishman. What shall we do? e Tre- sult, of course, was Obvious. The prisoner should be freed, or Moro Castle would haye been perforated b: the British guns, and Canedo—the merciful, the kin Canedo, who goes to masseach day, and confession three times a month—wishing to make a virtue of necessity, re- leased the prisoner and apologized for the mistake.” ‘Al, it would be well for humanity did the scone close here, We see by the files of the last steamer that the honest Creole—that unwavering friend who bad so nobly saved Mr. Boylan from exile and page —has been arrested, for no other crime, for no other offence, save that of pro- tecting an Englishman! SenorArango is that honest Creole’s name. A gentleman of learning and of character, moving in the most respec table sphere of life, he enjgyed the few comforts which, even in that unhappy land,*domestic bliss and an up: right and honest heart always insure. He saw with sor- row his island—once the Eden of the world—reduced by tyranny and oppression to what she now is; but, stifling every pang of sorrow and regret, he hoped for happier days for his own lovely country. So high was his character, so unimpeachable his neme, so irceproachable his con- duct, that, although a Creole, he was invested with the chief magistracy of Santiago de Cuba by even Mr. Canedo, Whilst acting ‘in such capacity he formed the acquaint. ance of Mr. Boylan, whom he knew to be an honest, open hearted Fnglithman, who, loving the principles of his own country, groaned at the barbarity of the kind and pious Canedo. Senor Arango warned him frequently to take care; but a true Englishman never yet feared to speak his ‘opinion openly and publicly, and Mr. Boylan was one of the right vort; he spoke what he thought, pub- Iicly and before the whole world. Nine ladies of the most respectable class in Cuba, were tora from their babes, and lay incarcerated in the Moro, for no other crime save the patriotism of their husbands. Is therean honest English- man inany part of the known world who would not cry out against such conduct? It was for this Mr. Boylan was ar- rested: he was wealthy, and Cancdo smacked his lips at the sequestration. He was a lonely stranger in a lonely part of the isle; the matter could be put through, therefore, with- out the interference of the British consul. All things ut three miles from |. seemed propitious. Any man who dared to iaterfere kuew the garote to be his doom. But there was one man, aye, one Creole, and that Creole was Senor Arango, who, fear- less of the ignomy of the garote, or the chains of Ceuta, stood forward to protest against such anact. He was the friend of te Bharath bode ot than sée site Leste ly wronged, so foully treated, he flung every consideration pay winds, and sacrificed tbe happiness of his wife, his children and himself, to obtain the liberty of his friends and justice for an Englishman. He has saved his friend; but in doing #0 he hae lost “himoelf, unless England will protect him. Oh! Englishmen, where is your philan- thropy ? where is your protection? Will you tolerate the incarceration of the man who dared to stand forward to save your fellow countryman from banishment? Your ships of war surround that island for the protection of the negro and the slave; but Arango, the friend of your countryman, and the:saviour of his liberty, lies in prison ugheeded and forgotten. His weeping wile looks up to you for tbe liberation of her husband. Will you de- mand it? His little children stretch out their innocent erms for their father. Oh! will you not heed them? Will you sanction an act of such unheard of atrocity? Or are you afraid of another Armada? Ladies of England, you md your sympathy for the slave—will you not do the same for Senor Arango? Will you turn a deaf ear to the cries of that woman whose husband has been so fear- fully wronged 1s all your sympathy in the cause of hu. far manity but a delusion and a farce? ‘The hour has at last arrived when your sincerity is put to the test—rescue this man from the dungeon, demand of your husbands their assistance in so noble a cause—tell them that they must enforce the most ample reparation for this injured man, for his discons wife and — children. AN ENGLISHMAN. THE Lig td ol THE lathes bia be ‘Baa & telegraphic despatch yesterday morning, says the New Orleans Piosyume ct te anit iantent etatine thet io American ship Harriet had beon fired “into,” when of Cubs, by the British war steamer Devastation, snd. was afterwards boarded by some of her officers. The Harriet arrived here rday, from Havana, and the following is Captain Otle’s statement of the matter:—‘ On his pas- sage out from Savannah to Havana, on the Sist of March, about ten miles to the westward of the Double Head Shot-keys, at 7A. M., he discovered a steamer some five or six miles to the leeward, and near by hera brig. The steamer ran various courses, and finally ran down to the brig, and then stood to the eastwsrd; then changed course to the southward, an finally kept off to the southward and westward, running on the same course with the ship, about six miles tothe leeward, and from six to seven miles astern. She then set all sall and put on steam, and gained on the Harriet; while in chase of the lntter she fired two shots, which fell short of the Harriet two or three miles. All hands on the Harriet saw them strike in the water. Captain Otis then hove his ship to and hauled up his courses, when he was boa by two officers from the British man-of-war steamer Devas- tation. They stated that their business was to ascertain whether Captain Otis was carrying out the treaty stipu- lations. Capt. O. replied that his colors were a sufficient gnarantee for him. They then requested Captain Otis to show the ship’s papers, which he did, and after they had examined them they left. Captain Otis took the steamer to be,a Spanish war vessel cruising off the harbor of Ha- vana, as he could not see the steamer’s colors, the smoke from’ the steamer preventing it. He entered a protest at Havana, before the United States Consul. Weekly Report of Deaths doiens Rheumatism Rupture of Smallpox ..

Squier, our representa- tive in Central Ameries, in January, 1850, between the United States on the one part, and the republic of San Salvador on the other, has now passed into an accom. plished fact. The treaty was originally made during the regimé of President Taylor; but the administration which succeeded declined to ratify or act upon it. So it has lain over a dead letter until very reeently, when it re. ceived the sanction of the Senate, and the ratification and signature of President Pierce. The following are the chief points of the treaty : Arts. Land 2 provides that there shall be a perfect and firm pence and sincere friendship between the United States of America and the republic of San Salvador, and that no particular favor shall be granted to other nations, in respect of commerce and havigation, which shall aot immediately become common to the other party. Art. 3 provides for perfect equality and reciprocity be- tween the two countries in matters of commerce and navigation, and that the subjects of each may hold es. tate, carry on business and muanufactures, aud enjoy all the rights of native citizens in the other ; and by article 12 they may dispose of their property by sale, donation, testament or otherwi ¢. Art. 4 agrees that whatever kind of produce, manufac: ture or merchandise, of any forcign country may be fully imported into the United States ia their pwn ves- sels, may also be imported in vessels of the republic of San Salvador, without any difference of tonnage duties and so also with Neg gg Art. 5 provides t no higher duty shall be imposed on the rtation into either country of the produce er manufactures of the other than that levied on the same articles from foreign countries—so also with expor- tations.

L. Marcy, Secretary of State, Mormonism and “Spiritual Wifelsm in Lee Coun’ [Fro the Chteago Pye April 13. m the 48, April 13, We had of late years entirely Tost track of William Smith, brother of the prophet “Joe.” In 1839 we knew him well. He was then keeping tavern in Plymouth, » sinall village in Hancock couaty, some thirty miles from Nauvoo. A goodly number of the ‘Saints’ frequented his house, but he never bad much influence with the great body of Mormons. “Bill,” as he was familiarly termed by his “Gentile” acquaintances, was always re garded as one of the lesser lights. Compared with his older brother Joe, or his younger brother Hiram, he was an inferior man. ' He had much less capacity than the former, and far less cultivation than the latter. Yet he was by n0 means -deficient in that peculiar shrewdaess which, from the mother of the prophet down to the youngest of her children, was a characteristic of the Smith family. Bill, however, lacked caution, He had not the faculty of concealment which distinguished Joe and Hi ram. “Perhaps ‘was the reason that the two latter in. duced him to take up his residence outside of the holy city. This weakness of Bill conduced to his popularity where he lived, He obtained a reputation for frankness ané candor that was denied his shrewder brothers, and when he became a candidate for legislative hoaors, he polled many yotes outside of the Mormon organization. Afler the murder of Joe and Hiram, Bill made a des perate attempt for the svecession. But he enrriod too ew guns. Rigdon was a bigger man than Dill, Strang was bigger than Rigdon, but Brigham Yaung was the biggest of themall But’ Rigdon, Strang and Bill, were all too big to play second fiddle to Brigham. Each’ drew off with hts particular adherents, and set upon his own account. Brigham and the great mass of the saints made thelr hegira to Salt Lake, Rigdon and his followers to Pennsylvania, and Strang to Beaver Island. Bill com meneed a kind of nomadic life. We met him repeatedly afterwards, upon the Southern rivers, travelling up and down, lecturing on Mormonism in the principal cities and towns, seemingly fond of the notoriety which attached to him. Within the last five or six years we had heard but little of him, and wo supposed he had cither subsided into peaceful retirement, or had made his submis sion to Brigham Young, and become a citizen of Utah. (yur first impression was correct. William Smith, as wo (earn by # late number of the Dixon Thlegraph, togethyyr with & few followers, has setiled in Lee county, lin ois. - There he maintains the distinctive tenets of Morm gnism, keops up “stated preaching,’’ and practisos many of ¢he pocn- lirities for which the sect are famous. Last week he was brought before the Circuit Court at Faxon. at the in stigation of @ “spiritual wife.”” We jopy what follows from the Dixon Tlegraph ‘ ‘At the preeent term of our Cire mit Court, William Smith was brought before it, hav mig been arrested in consequence of an affidavit made py one of the female members of the chureh, in whieh, che set forth that she had been ieduced to believe thy,“ it wax nocesaary for her salvation that she shonld beco mo bis xpiritual wife; the result of which was the ear @ that usually accompanioa cases where no spiritualism, jg elatmed, On account of the inability of the witne 4s to ationd at this term the case was continued. "tie defendant says that it all arises in persecution f' aim the Gentiles, As another item on the seme subject go may siate that Smith has himself now pending in the game court, an application for # di voree, on the gro" snd that his wife, while at Natvoo, was initiated into th mysteries of, and.as be says, “took seven degrees’ + in apiritunl wifery.

M. At the close of the stock market, yesterday, the ten dency of prices was upward, and a pretty active demand existed for most of the leading fancies. The amount of stock offering, however, was large, and there appeared to be more anxiety on the part of certain holders, to realize: than on the part of other parties to purchase. Prices current at the close yesterday, compared with those ruling at the Close of the previous week, show a general improvement, and in some stocks the advance has been very great, This has doubtless enabled many who have for some time past been large holders, to realize, and re- tire for a time ; but we do not understand upon what grounds purchases have been made at present prices, The rise has, of course, been entirely speculative ; but partios who have involved themselves in the upward movement, must have dong co with some belief, however vague, that operators of more sanguine temperament would in turn take their stocks at lighter prices. If we could get at the motive which governs speculators in times like these, we should find that nothing but the hope of finding indivi duals who would take their supplfes at a profit, in duced them to purchase. So far as the value of the stocks is concerned, that is a matter apparently of very little canrequence. The question is hardly asked, and no one seems to care. Speculators get an idea that prices ought to go up, and if they are strong enough, and can get money enough, they put them up. The position of certain fancies may aid a movement of this kind; but a sort of sympathy exists among these rensitive securities which favorably influences the entire list. In this way, speculators are driven first into one ancy and then into another, until they get more than they can carry, and the whole come tumbling down to gether. With one or two exceptions, fancy stocks remain unebanged in actual intrinsic value. Most of them are worth no more than they were three months since, when they were from five to ten per cent lower, and the proba- bility is, that, within the next three months, they will recede again to their old starting points. We have no faith in the present rise, It has no foundation, It is en- tirely speculative, and the speculation limited in extent. It is wholly lccal—not exténding beyond the limits of Wall street. Every per cent advance brings out hun dreds of shares of stock, without increasing the number of buyers. This weakens the movement at times, when it appears the strongest; and it usually end sooner or later, in a sudden collapse. It is possible that amidst this general inflation there are instances where real, bo na fide causes are at work, operating favorably to that end. Where auch exist, we can look for an exemption in the great crash, . They may be sustained, but will not escape slight temporary depression.

It mustalso be ! to experience to determine at what rate these bars shall pass: whether at the gross value—that is at the amount which would be equivalent thereto in coin—or at the net value payable on deposit at the mint, being half per cent less than the gross value, by reason of cha: r at a value intermediate between the gross and the net value, and varying secording to the cireum- stances of demand and supply.
