eh WOMAN IN THE PULPIT. Germon of tev Antoinette Brown, tn Metro polttan Hall, yesterday. The largest congregution in our city, yesterday, assembled at M olitan Hall, to listen to this eloquent di At an early hour the floor was Crowded, ar be. the Orst circle was full by the time the ceremonies commenced. Thejgailery was also weil filled, an? all listened with much attention to the sayings of the preacher, clearly and eraphatically uttered. The reverend lady was dressed in a rich black figured si k dress, long skirts, and around her meck hung a heavy gold chain. Miss Brown is rather a pretty woman; and if we may be permitted to judge of such delicate matters, we should say she is the belle o' her co-workers upon the temperance platform. She is about medium height, weil built, has very pretty teeth, is round featured, with a beautiful complexion. Her face is expressive of piety, benevolence and kindness, and impresses even an oppovent o° her principles with a belief of her sincerity. Belore the opening of the services, the preacher invited all who wished, to be seated upon the platform. Here a grand rush was made of men, women and children, and soon tbe stage was crowd. ed. Of the pew lights among the listeners, wore Lucy Stone, Lucretia Mott, C. C. Burleigh, (radiant with glossy curls.) Horace Greeley, &c. When sileaco had been gsined through the house, the fair preacher came forward and opened the services by reading a hymn, which tx andience sung in generally, “She thea read the 18ti chapter of 1st Corinthians, . ing the reading with a prayer, which she oifered up with much devoutuess. Another hyma was then surg; after which, the germon was elivered as fol- lows:— The words of my text will be foundin Jeremish, 44th chapter, ith verse:— “Oh, do not rh'y abeminable thing, which I hate.’” There are many voble things, of which all men, and nations, sud people, and tongues delight to zing im praise.

Novel and Interesting Views. (From the New Orleans Piseyune, August 28 } A gentleman of our acquaintance who has just re- turned from a visit of some length to , who ¢uring his sojourn there had various good opportani- ties for becoming acquainted with the political condi- tion of-the country, has Us Some memoranda of his conclusions, which, as he ia a sagacious aad cool observer, will prove of interest, particularly as they are opposed in the chief points to what the peo- ple and press of the United States believe to be the a condition of Santa Anna's administration aad policy. He says—and it astonishes us, with Santa Aana’s precedents of absolutism, ene: and love of per- sonal control before us—that President leaves the management of everything to his miaisters, and they are afraid or too lazy to act. Santa Anna came into power breathing gece ty every inhabitant of the United States—he published his hatred, cou- enny Ll gt on that theme, and his official journal has this country .in the moet unmeasured terms. He decreed the raising of an army of ninety- one thousand men; he prohibited the circulation of American coin; he enacted’ that any Mexican who spoke in favor of annexation to the United States should be punished with death by sentence of court martial; he threw himself into the hands of the Spaniards, the monarchists, and the church; he abolished the liberty of the press, and, finally, es- tablished, in a clandestine manner, a system of titlas for priests. These measures, however, have not realized his expectations, The Spaniards and monarchists were too feeble to assist him to raise funds; the church would not loan him some $20,000,000. He has tried to get rid of monarchist be had paced in office, with the intent to replace them with liberals; he has had to explain in a published decree that he did not in- tend two establish the priest titles; his ministers have bad to acknowledge that the government is bank- rupt, and is obliged to suspend payments in some | departmenta. | ‘here is not revenue sufficient to meet the wants | of even an economical administration. The army es- | timate bas had to be reduced. Santa Anna has Been obliged to call on the Governors of the States to sug: gest a mode of raising money, although he had already seized upon the funds of these States for his own purposes. Finally, in the public interview he had with our late Minister, Judge'Conklinfi, a noti:e of which waz published by the official journal, the Universal, on the 17¢h instant, the President expressed the great- est friendship for the United States and the Ameri- can pecnie He said to the Minister :— It is with deep regret that I witness the departure of your Erea'leney, and I hope you will express to sour goverrment the sentiments mauifested by the Mexican Executive ; the good wishes that animate us to draw closer every day the friendly relations between both na- tions, particularly the prayers uttered for your proa- perity and that of the American people, Santa Anua’s hatred to the Americans, and it is vain for him to disguise it, is deadly in the extreme, He would no doubt gratify the feeling, even at ades- pera‘e risk; but just now, as our acquaintance hinks, the Mexican Presideut is afraid to move.

(From the Washington Union, (demi-semi official,) ‘September 3 | The latest English journals received in thia coun- try, though they mention the production of the Cu- ban papers in the British Parliament, make no al- lusion to any remarks upon the subject by the British Secretary for Foreign Affairs. We infer, therefore, that there was mistake or misapprehension in the information heretofore alluded to by us, aud derived from a credible source in England, to the effect that sucha speech had accompanied the production of the papers. The despatch of Lord John Russell is then to be judged without such official comment as an expression of the views of the British govern- ment. In another column will be found an article from the Boston Post, (already published in the HERAIH, as an emanation from Washington,) in the general scope and drift of which we concur, respect- ing those propositions in Lord John Russell's letter to which it refers. There are, however, some points in that despatch, in our judgment, alike important and inadmissible, which the Post appears to have omitted, or reserved for a future examination, and to which we deem it proper now to invite the attention of our readers, < ee the close of the British letter ocours the following very e: Ta — Nor let i be said that pacten a soyentia would have pre- vented the inhabitants of Cuba from asserting their inde- pendence.

At last the scandal | of this onheard of treason will not fall on the brow | of the Argentine people; and this example, joined to | so many others, will serve to prove that the province | of Buenos Ayres withdraws in honor from the path a of vices into which those criminal men drive it with all their power. | Thue the impressiox which this event has | cavsed in this army has been a profound indignation | against the authors of such infumy— against those who | employ in purchasing criminals and fomenting civil | war the treasnres which every province pays to be | governed under the (Fe the of honor and justice | which preside over all human society. Far, therefore, from the spirit of this army having been dismayed, the treason of the iafiamons Coe bas only served to strengthen it in its determination to aubdue the Isst relic of resistance which our conntry will encounter in the establishment of a condition of order worthy of a civilized people. This resolution will, doubtless, be carried out. God keep you many yeurs. duato J. De Crquiza. Notwithstanding Gen. Urquiza's exhibition of in- digvation at the desertion of Commodore Coe, it is alleged, on the other side, that Orquiza himself was the real traitor ; that he negotiated with the Buenos | Ajreans for thé surrender of the national sqnadron ; that he had received the sum of gold bargained [or : that a veseel was in readiness to convey him and his I-gotten treasnres to England: and that Comino- dore Coe’s conduct waa simply in obedience to orders. | All this, however, i# merely alleged, and certainly does uot bear the slightest impress of probability.

Mores :—~ Comrarators or THY Countay- Retired to the Eastern State, resolved untranquilly, at the events which have been taking place in our province since the first of December— | of the eit; \ | | | seeing nothing but a strife between brothers, beirs | Hritish government, then we eee not how to avoid | of the same revobation and of the same “ge abc | the concinsion, thet in matters vital to our national | ven a4 | might, free from forei; result to know and em! influences, oe each other, drowning before the aKays of ere complaint, all dia union, J have seen that the unlucky Gen. Urquiza treads down our dear Inud for the second time, and appears mixed up in ita strifee after having sowed tne gewn of them. ¢ man who, after the 3d of February, opening the boxes of our provincial treasury, despoiled it at his whim for bis own benefit—the man whio, causing hundred the Porte » borsted that he bad humbled (inhabitants of the province of Baenos Ayre®--the same who, without regarding the tears | and misery in which so many families were plunged, embarked for Entre Rios, as a ti Fiery, thought in disarping as to enslave nie--that man, compatriots, territied ab seeing the Vorteios | prmed avew, has qungied among them, aot to make | clarstion of to look from hence, although ; the xtreets of Palermo to flow with the blood of many | ropby of his victory, | the remainder of one companions in arma, subjecting } them to the most odious slavery ia the work of his | luntations—dhe aame who, robbing ua of all our ar, ion, made “ with the view’’ of immediately asking aid from the United States arainst a consequent insur- rection of the blacks in the isiand. These limitations in the British proposition, in our judgment, practi- cally amount to nothing, because they have no founda- | ation in the nature of the case contemplated. A de- independence made without due the people, is no declaration at all; but if made by due authority on the part of the ple, it is not within the competency of any foreign power to regard such a declaration a8 a mere pretence. It is the most solemn act which a people can perform, and, if duly performed, involves considerations altogether too authority from | momentous to permit it to be regarded as a sham. The other limitation is equally unfounded in the | | nature of the case, because, if the Cubans declare their independence, they must do so in full view of a negro insurrection, Spain having been understood repeatedly to threaten to set the negroes at once at liberty in'such an event. in order to put down a re- volutionary.moyement.in Cuba by the torch and knife in negro hands. It is easy to se2, therefore, that whenever the Cubans declare themselves indepen- dent they will do so of vecessity, in full view of the horrors of ac quent servile war of extermination, | and, of course, witu the view of seeking shelter from such horrors wherever such shelter may be found. All these conditions we suppose to be involved in the very nature of the case which the above cited pro- position contemplates. They show that the limitations of the British proposition practically amount to nothing. ‘The proposition, then, is that, assu tion of independence anda revolution ia Cuba, and | a conseqnent revolt of the blacks under Spanish authority, and by Spanish instigation, any act of aid or succor to the Cubans, by the United States, how- ever urgently invoked by them, is, in the view of the British government, to be regarded and resisted as alike objectionable and unwarranted. Now, of this British proposition so stated, before touching its bearing upon other cardinal points of American policy, we remark that it sets at defiance every dictate of humanity, and even of civilization. What stronger case can be imagined to invoke and to justify the interposition of the United States thau such an appeal from the people of Cuba ina state of revolution, to save them from general massacre, and their beautiful island from barbarization at the hands of savage and infuriated negroes, thus let loose upon them? Re . It is not our purpose to anticipate the decision either of the American government or of the Ameri- can people upon the question of such interposition by the United States, in the case we have supposed. t question will doubtless be considered and de- cided when the case arises. Our point is, that if (reat Britain can properly denouuce beforehand, as unwarranted and inadmissible, such interposition by us in such a case, then is there no case whatever in- | volving our relations with the communities on this continent, and our action towards them, in which Great Britain may not, with at least an equal right, | pretend to interfere and to dictate. ! "Look at the undisputed facts of the case. Here is | an island almost within sight of our coast—oom- | manding the great outlet of our principal staple products—forming naturally a part of the American | territorial and commercial system. That island is | wretchedly misgoverned by a European power. By the showing the British government itself, the Spanish rulers there, in addition to what clze in their rule is intolerable, have been for years past, in defi- ance of solemn treaties, the confederates of the Afri- cap slave-traders. And yet Great Britain assames totell the United States, that if the Cubans rise | agatust their oppressors, the United States shall not interpose to protect them from the savage slaughter of agervile war, excited and instigated for their | destruction. The British government will hardly pretend that sny question can arise in our relations with the com- | munities of this continent of deeper interest to us, in il ite aspects, than would be the question presented tract supposes, and in which England thus openly } undertakes to prescrie in advance to usa the only } ine of policy which it will regard ae admissible. \ The Britial’ dictum is, that when that case arises, whatever we may think of it, we are to let tho whole matter alone, ander peril of English displea- sure if we move init. We do not deem it neces ' say to waste words upon sacha British preten- } sion. We entertain not the slightest, doabt that | the whole American people will, with one voice, repudiate ond repel it.

MONBY MARKET, Sumpar, Sept. 4-6 P. M, Daring the past week operations im the «tock market have been unurually large, aad the tendemey of prices has been upward. In really geod stocks the movement bas been limited and the variations in prices moderate, ‘The fancies have cccupied almost entirely the attention of speculators, and holders have, in the face of a gradu- ally tightening money market, not only been abie to sustain prices, but have been able to realise a slight im- provement. The alight tendency downward of good stocks chows that the frmmess of fancies is caused en- tirely by the efforts of wpeculators, and that present prices are with much difficulty sustained. The state of the money market must ultimately tell upom such fan- cies as Erie, Hudsom, Cumberland, Phosnix Coal, Morris and Cantona, when we shall see a fall that will be as sweeping as the last. The banks do not appear disposed to extend any facilities for the purposes of speculation, but, on the contrary, they are contracting their legiti- mate line of discounts, and refusing daily the largest portion of the offerings trom regular customers, We lock for atringeat times throughout the fall, and if prices for stocks do not recede wo shall be much mis- taken.

The product of these mines for several years pact, although but partially worked, has been ebeut four handred thourand dollars peranoom, In the hands of an active, ontorprising company, they can be made to yield more than double that rum. The rapid developement of the McCullock gold mine of North Carolina shows what capitalists can do when they get hold of a rich mine, The Uaited Statss mint of Charlotte, N.C., haa been for many years sup- plied prizeipally from the Gold Hill minss. ‘The compa ny which has recently beon organizsd for workiog those mines upon an extensive soale has already taken pos session, and commenced the erection of proper ma- chinery, &c. For more than twenty years there gold mines have been celebrated for their productiveness, while no system has been pursued by the proprietors in their operations, Ladividual labor only has been direst edto them, notwithstanding which the amouut of gold mined annually has beem as above stated. The new company is composed of gentleman who have great ox. perience in the business in which they are engagad, and there is no doubt but that the Gold Hill miaes will more thaa maintain their high reputation, Immediate returns will be realized from investments in this compaay, as the minss are in admirable ordes for a large increa’e of min- ing foree. ‘The exports of speole from the port of Boston during the month of August amounted to $245,775, of which $238,785 was in gold, and $3,010 in silver. The imports in same time 913,926, of which $2,600 was in gold, and $11,526 in silver. ‘The earnings of the Boston, Concord, and Montreal Railroad, for the month of July, were $16,368 71; in the same month of 1352, $13 [65 52. Gaia, $3,003 19. This increase has been realized chiefly from local business, the travel from the Paseumpalc road, and a la-ge amount of freight transported for the White Mountain road, not being included. ‘The businessof the Baitimore and Ohio Railroad bids fair to age pearly $200,000 per month for the six months’ period from April 1 to October. The August re ceipts will show, it is understood, the large increase of some $70,000 over those of July, which, being the dallest business month of the season, were $164,000 on the wain stem. Ia the Baltimore Sun we have a fall confirmation of the statement we made some ten days sincs, that the negotiations of the Baltimore and Olio Ratlroad Com- pany with European capitalists, and those ia connection with the Cumberland Coal Company, had proved sigaal failures; consequently that there wore no means sup- fied to construct a double trask from Cumberland to Baltimore. At the same time we stated that the exigen- cies of the Erie Railroad Company were so omberzassiag that it beesme necessary to resort to extraordinary easistance to raise temporary loans to avert an inevi- table bonkruptey, with regard to which Mr. Talman J. Waters, the Assistant Treasurer, over his. owa official sigvature, published an unqualified denial. Now, With regard to the Baltimore aad Ohio Railroad Cowpaoy, we have their own acknowledgement ia their application to the City Councils of Baltimore praying for the aid ond oredit of that municipality to the amount of one million of Collars; and in proof of our charge respect- ing the notes drawn and endorsed by seven of the direc- tors of the Brie Eailrosd Company, to raie funds for the relief of the company, we refer Mr. Waters, the Assistant Treasurer, to the American Exchange, the Mechanics’, the North River Bank, &:., where these endorsed notes, im very large amounts, were dis counted; and by inquiry at the Merchants’ Exchange Pank he will probably be informed that one of the notes, with the seven names, for fifty thousand dollars, was offered and rejected. Wecan go further and show that other of these notes were in the hands of brokers for aie. The gist of our statement waa, that motes for sums of twenty five thousand, fifty thousand and one hundred thousand dollars, were put into circulation with the names of seven of the directors, and that without this timely aid the company must have failed. This is the substance of our chargs, apd we consider ourselvos authorised to remark that this negotiation would not haye been entered into had not the parties been deeply involved in sustaining their stock interests. if this were not the real inducement for the extraordinary ac- commodation why did not the five other directors lend their names’—they being ojually responsible and reapect- able as those who did, it is said that the company’s name was excluded from the notes that their extensive necessities might not be exposed, and that it could not be uved without the unaaimous sanction of the Board of Directors, In the statement heretofore mado by the diraction, it was estimated that the monthly receipts ought to reach $350,000, and but for the extraordinary trave: created by the Crystal Palace this sum would have proved as low in August as it did{m June or July, when it did not exceed $540,000. The comparison between the receipts of the past year and the present are entirely fallacious. ‘he iroportant question ix, how do the re- ceipts now correspond with those of the estimate on which the solvency of the company was bared? Io setting down tho receipts at $404,000, the collections made for sccount of other roads are inciaded on tickets iasued for throngh travel, and the sums due the Paterson company, being a guarantee of eight per cent net on their capital of $660,000, forming part of tna same to, We will for the present defer onr notice of Mr. Waters certificate, intended as an honent exculpatory denial o the extraordinary character of the negotiatica mado by seven directors to raise funds for the company, biding our time when it will be shown that tho redoubtable certificate is nothing more than s special ples under the garb of a genera) ineue, ‘The annexed statemont exhibits the qusatityand value of certain articles other than foreign dey goods impor | | | i | | Priday, Sept, 2, 1885 — ' | Conmrxer OF ro: Port OF New Yout.--Waunry laronte. } Quant, Voine Baskets @S $3,863 Rooks. 73 14,204 Bottles | | \ | . eo cont BEnonumBa se” les. 46 “Sat Watdoes... 38 3t Gunny bags 8 § cate nn fe Hai Ay . 2 f Hair: mf 16 3 latters’ goods 20, Hemp. 4.315 7 Hovey. 7 83 India suber. — ZB Indigo. .,.... 238 wy Instruments— BE 82 for 3 3418 Chrys Pal. 40 19 Surgical. 3 519 Other tmp'ts 40 4 Ivory.....c.. 3 TOL Vain of mdse, put on market week en- Ei Ging Sept 2d .....sseceseesseees, + $2,260 5 dry 2,126 Total for the woek...... $4,076 ‘The principal itema of interest during the week wer followa:—fisintain bark, $63,885 ; fura, $49,296; p glass, $41,407; india rubber, $15,527; hemp, $76, undressed skins, $157,926, .dresuod skins, $46 661; $85,200; railroad iron, $168,722; cutlery, $53,208; $63,902; tia, $51,156; sugar, $217,392; tea, $49, wines, $80,814. ‘The trustees of the Great Morthern Lead Company just received the annexed highly gratifying letter their mining agent, from which it appears that ¢ ticipated richness of the Coal Hill mine is about ¢ fully realized.
