The Berlin Zeit of Aw 18, pobiishes @ despateh fam Count Nesselrode to on Meyender', at Vienna, Gated St. Petersburg, Angust 28, 0. B., (September 7, N. B.,) as follows: — fe have just received, together with yonr Excellency’s reports of the 16th (Si) of August, the alterations which the Ottoman lorte has made im the draft of # note drawn up at Vienma. Count Buol will ouly require to recall to mind the ex- nape ed rad communication of the 26th of July to rm a clear idea vf (he imyewsion these alterations have made on his Majesty the Paperor. When I, in his Majesty's naine, accepted that draft of a note which Austria, after having previously procured it to be approved and accept. by the courts of France and England, deseribed to us as an ultimatum that she intend- ed to lay before the Porte, and on the acceptance of which the continuance of her friendly offices wax to depend, I added in a dempatch which you, Baron, were instructed to Communicate to the Austrian Cabinet, the following re- marks and reservations: — Toonsider it to be superfueus to remark to your Ex- ecllency that, wiilst ve im a spirit of conciliation accept the ef accommodation agreed to at Vienna, and of ® Turkish ambassader we assume that we shall not have still further changes and fresh propositions to examine and to discuss, which may happen to be con. trived of Comstantinopie waier the warlike inspication which seems at present to infiuence the Sultan and the majority of his Ministry, and that, shoull the Ottoman government alse reject ‘lis last arrangement, we should 20 longer hold ourselves by the consent which we now sive to it. #0 precise as these could leave the Austri- an government no doubt as to our present decisions. 1 will not at the presen moment enter into the altera- ‘tions of the wording which have been made at Constanti- nople. I have made then subject of special remarie tm another despatch. | will, for the moment, confine my- self to axking whether the mperer, after having for him- self renounced the power to change even a word in tuat draught of a note, which was drawn up without his parti- cipation, can adow the Uttoman Porte alone to reserve te itself that power, and whether he can sulfer Russia to be thus fa in an inferior position visa vis Turkey. We hold this to be inconsistent with the dignity of the Em- = Let us recall the whole series of events, as they Place. In the place of the Menschikoff note, the ac- ceptance of which without alteration we had stipulated as the condition of our resuming our relations with the Porte, a different note was propesed to us. On this ground we it have refused to take it into consideration. And even after entering upon it we might have found og- casion te raise more than ene objection, to propose moré than oue alteration in the expressions. You know, Baron, that from the moment we consented te give up our ultima~ tum, no note of any form whatever was what we desired, that we should have preferred anether plan, another form of agreement. We did uot insist on this plan; we h laid it enti on one side. Why? Because, as soon as we should have made counter proposilions, we should have exposed oursslves to the reproach of protracting matters—of the crisis which is diag uie we wished to put an end We sacrificed our objectious both 4s rega end the fo the ptot the t draft of a note, without waiting to learn if it had been approved in London or in Paris, we notilied our accession to it by tele- gee. Subsequently the draft was forwarded to us in its final form; and although it had heen aliered in a direc- tion which we could not misunerstand, we did not retract our consent nor raise the au Could great- 6r readiness or a more council hown! Wi we thus acted we did so, 3 r of course, on th Emperor accept he Porte ina ction that , in which nothing intentionally prolonging Hurope. Instead of this, as crisis a8 svon as pos We Austria looked on it ‘was to be changed—as ti: @iation, which, should it macity of the Porte, would thereby of if ¢ to. an end. We regret that it’ wu» uotse. But the Vienna cabinet will admit that if we bad not to do with an al but with a new draft o/ « note, in which either of t! parties concerned was at liverty to make changes, we should thereby recover the right, of which we had, or our own deprived vursely »roposing variations on our part, of taking the proposal of arrangement into con- Gideration, amd not only changi-g the expressions, but @lso the form. Could such @ result be intended by Austria? Could it we ble te the l’ewers, who, by alteriog and accept- Ing her draft, have wade it their common work? It is dheir affair to consider ie delays which will result from his, or to inquire if it is for the interest of Europe to cut them short. We cee only snd to thes. It is for Austria and the Powers to declare to the Porte, frankly ang firmly, they, after having in vain ned up teit the only road that could lead to an imme- te restoration ef its relations with us, henceforth loave the task te itself aloxe We believe that as soon as the Powers unaaimously hold this longuage to the Porte. the Turks wilbyield to th viee of Lurepe, and, instead of reckoning nm her assistance in a struggle with Russia, will accept the note iu its present form, and cease tise their positien so seriously for’ the cle tion of having alterod a few expressions in a which we had accepted without di ion. For of these two positions only one is le—either the alterations e important, in which case it toaccede to them; or they are unimpgriant, and then the question arises, why should the Porte unnecessarily make its acceptance dependaut -on their ‘To sum up fuécintly whet we have said, the ultimatum drawn up at Vienna & not ours. It is the work of Austria and the Powers, wh , after having first o- all agreed to it, then discussed it, and xi d its original text, have re- ized it ag such as the Vorte could accept without its interests or its hoper be ug compromises. We, on our part, have done everything that depended upon us to shorten unnecessary delays, inasmuch as when the ar- ore t was laid before us we renounced all counter pro- tions. Noone will refuse to bear this estimony te Re loyaute of the Emperor. After oar having long ex- ‘hhausted the measure of cesstons, withsut the Porte’s thawing as yet mace a single one, his Majesty can go no further without compromising ‘his own standing, and without exposing himsl: to a resumption of his relations with Turkey, under unfavorable auspices, which would deprive them for the future of all stability, and must in- evitably produce a fresh and signal breach. Even now, further concessions with regard to the expressions of the note would be of no use, for we see by your despatch that the Ottoman government is only waiting for our consent to the alterations made in the Vienna note to make its ture, as well as its sending off am ambassader to con- vey the latter hither, dependent on fresh conditions, and that it has already made inadmissable proposals with re- spect to the evacuation of the Principalities. As regards the latter point, we can only r fer to the assurances and declarations contained in our despatch of the 10th of Au- gust, and repeat, thot the arrival of the Turkish ambas- sador, the Austrian note without alterations, will suffice at St. Petersburg for the orders to be issued to our troops tore ire over the frontier.”” A firman is about to be istued to authorize the admis- gion of the evidence of Christians in courts of law.

Hon. Judges Edmonds, Edwards, Mitchell, Roosevelt and Morris, presiding. THE RUSS PAVEMENT IN THE BOWERY. Oct. 6.—Cornelius B. De Bawn and Samuel E. Thistle va. Horace P. Russ and George W. Reid, impleaded with the Mayor, de., of New York, and B. P. Purdy, Commissioner of Hepairs and Supplies —This is an appeal from the decision of Judge Fémonds, at special term, in July last, dissolving an injuneticn which was ordered on the 26th May last, estraining the defendants from executing the contract or Jaying down the Russ pavement in Chatham street, Turk row, Bowery, and the Fourth avenue. Mr. Noyes, on the part of the plaintiffs, said that the question in this case comes up upon an order to show cause why an injuuction should not be continued, a prpliminary injunction having been granted by his Honor Judge Reorevelt. The injunction restrains the Mayor, Aldermen, and Commonalty of the city of New York from eatering into a centrect with Horace P. Russ and George W. Reid, and also restrained Mr. Purdy, as Commissioner of Repairs and Supplies, from participating in making that contract, in reference io paving the Bowery, from the extremity of | Park row, in Broadway, up to Union square. Upon an order to show causo, a large number of alfidavite were in- troduced by the defendants ; and, after the hearing of the whove matter, Judge Fdmonds considering that the equity of the bill was @ tablished, in case the proper parties were before the court, denied motion for the continuance of the injunction, and dissolved the injunction which had been granted, on the ground that it’ was a proceeding only to be had at the instance of the Attorney General. As I underytand the matter, the remedy is in 4 suit of the people, through their officer, the Attorney-General. Mr Noyes then read the complaint, which states that the plaintiff are inhabitants of this city and owners of a large amount of real and personal e4- tate, which is assessed for taxes to pay municipal ex- penses, paving the streets, Ae.» and that they are greatly Interesten in the economical abd. prudently managed ad- Mr. Noyes then read | the petition of Russ & Reid to the corporation for the contract, which was to be performed for $650,000, and the petition of J. B. Morrell &o., who oifered to perform the same work for $250,000, and another offer of Cummi & Pollock, to perform the contract for $550,000. Coun continued to read from the complaiat, which stated that, notwithstanding the veto of the Mayor, the majority of the | Boards of aldermen and Assistants, through corrapt mo- | tives, pasced a resclution, respectively, authorizing a con- | tract to be made with Russ & Reid. The plaintif—s charge bribery and corruption, and they pray that the Common Council of New York be restrained from dicecting the Commissioner of Repairs and Supplies fram executing a contract with Russ & Reid. Mr. Willard, wit whom Mr. Jamos T. Brady and Mr. E, Sandford were associated, read the answer of the de fencants and the affidavit of Russ & Reid, vhich sets forth that they ave engaged exclusively in the business of laying the lock and conerete pavement, know as the Russ pavement, Horace P. Russ being the original in- ventor, for which he obtained letters patent of the United States, and that the. sre the ouly persons authorized by law to construct «sid pavement. Mr. Ruse obtained a contract from the corporation to pave a portion of the carriage-way of Broxdway, extending from Chambers street to Heade street; thst the work occupied seven month, in its completion, and gave entire satisfaction to the public at large; that the pavement has beon subjected to the wear aud tear of the travel of Broadway for a period of nbout seven yenrs, without exhibiting any evi- dences of deterioracion. Thix work cost Mr. Russ $4,001 whilst the Comn on Council only awarded bim the sum of £1,100 £6. In 1848 he associated himself with Mr. Reid; apd in 1847 they purchased 000, and -comme: | ministration of the city expenses. they hoped to obtain in this city. .A large outlay was requi: ed for opening the quarry and delivering the stone. reveral contracts were subsequently obtained by them, but up to the year 1861 their expenditure exceeded the entire amount received from the city by the sum of $44,000 ‘The defendants also say that several persons, on one oc- casion, proposed for the work at prices ranging a few cents per yard below what were known to be the rates tablished by them; after the receipt of those proposals the Committee on Streets of the Board of Aldermen took into consideration the propriety of attempting to enter into contract with the persona Sabing the lowest propo- tals, and advised with Mr. Willis Hall, the then Corpora- tion Counsel, who delivered a written’ opinion sustainia; the exclusive right of Russ & Reid to that method ot pavement, and the Committee of the Board of Aldermen accordingly awarded the contract to the defendants; and the defendants deny that the Common Council were in- fluenced by, ér acted under any corrupt, or dishonest un- derstanding or agreement, in adopting the resolution ‘ting them the contract, but that they believe the Boards of Aldermen and Assistants acted solely upon public considerations, and in due regard for the public interests committed to their charge; they deny that the price agreed to be given them is unreasonable or excessive, and they deny that such price was given them for the purpose of enabling them to pay Sy. bribe. Mr. Noyes then proceeded to read other documents, and the opinion of Judge Edmonds in dissolving the injunction, which he hoped to controvert. as he understood it to over- rulesix opinions which he thought were considered the law of this court, | He olted various cases and continued his argument at great length, the gravaman of whic this contract wer erantod contrary to law, for corrupt and dishonest motives, whilst he admitted that the co poration had the right to make contracts. Mr. Lrndy said if Mr, Noyes conceded the point that the corporativn bad aright to make the contract it would shorten 1) eir argument on his sido considerably. Mr. Noyes did not deny that they have the right to pave the streets, He then continued his argument. Mr. Sandford was then heard in reply, contending that the pow-r of the corporation in the case was undinied and undeni bie, and that when the act {: 9 lozidative act it ia beyond the control of the judiciary; “h * t controf of the property of the city—we 6 by mviigs ment of all its franchises and its execs os is pro wrly vestediin the Common Gounoil; it was + of the exigency of paving the stre*ts, ani tiere is So eppeat to the jude tary from their decreo—the appeal | can aly be mad tothe people.

D. | ‘This convention pursiant to adjournment, assembled | yesterday morning at tem-o’clock at St. John's Chapel, in | Varick street. Y A full meeting of delegates were present, and. the galleries were well filled with ladies and gentlemen, and | spectators of the convention, | ‘The session was opened by morning prayer, conducted | by the Rt. Rey. Bishop Smith, of Kentucky, from the | upper house, assisted by Bishop Kempor of Wisconsin, who read the lessons. The menibera of both houses were ivine service. After service was over the proceeded to business, the Rev. Dr. he chair. nov. M. A. De Wolf Howe, called the roll, after which the minutes of yesterday wore read and | adopted. Th. Porter, of Brooklyn, then offered « resolution invi- ion from Exgland to attend this Ceting the Se. retary to inform them ting the clerice] \eleg Convention, and in of this action. Pefore it was acted upon the Rev. Dr. Crmanrow ad- dressed the house Prethren of the 1! ain utterly at a loss te 4 follows > se of Clerical and Lay Deputies yess in fitting terms my sense of the bo rred upon me. That one who is an entire stranger to many of you, and comparatively 40 to most of you, should, on his first appearance as a mem- ber of this house, be chosen by a unanimous vote to pre- side in this council of the Church, is a compliment as novel, I believe, as in the present’ case it is unmerited. I tender to the house the assurance of my profound gratitude for the flattering distinction, and yet, brethren, in the very circumstances which tend to magnily your kindness and to add to my sense of obligation, I seo’ real cause for anxiety lest in the administration of the office, L should fall short of your rightfal expectations. Laboring, as I shall, under the great disadvantages of very limited ersonal acquaintance with the members of this Rouse, and of want of familiarity with its mode of con- ducting business, I am called to succeed one who for a long term of years, occupied the position upon which Tam now entering, and by conscientious devotion to the duties of his office, his great urbanity of deportment, aad his ripe experience had rendered himself universally ac- ceptable. Under such circumstances, and in this com- parison, there is reason to apprehend that my deficiencies will be but tuo apparent. Still I am resolved, in reliance upon Divine help, to do all tnat I can to meet the respon- sibility you have laid upon me, and if by my strict atten- tion to my official duties, aud ‘their faithful discharge to the best of my ability and judgment, I can justify your choice, no efforts on my fart shall be wanting to that end. But, however feeble the hands to which you have entrusted the office uf your president, believe me, brethren, that in taking the siation to which your partiality has raised me, # station which I have not sought, and I may add, (without being justly chargeable with the affectation of humility,) Ihave not even wished for, it is my earnost desire to administer it, with a single eye to ny Master's approbation, and the great interest of His church. 't was then moved and carried that the President's ad- dress be incorporated in the journal of the conveution. A committee was then elected to inform the House of Bishops that the House of Deputies had organized, and were ready to proceed to business. The Committee were Rev. Dr. Mancket, of South Caro- lina, and Rev. Dr. Vinton, of New York. Dr. Potter’s resolution was then called up for consider- ation, and after some discussion the resolution was with- drawn. The Committee on Pews were then called upon to re- port, which they did through their chairman, Hou. Mur- ray Hoffman, The report reserved pews for the bishop, delegates, reporters, and spectators. Upon motion, the report was re-committed to the Com- mittce. The Cuam stated that in making out the Standing Com- mittecs, he had used the journal of theSecretary, without knowing whether the gentlemen appointed werd’ present. He hoped that if any were absent, a correction of the committees would be made ac ingly. ‘The Cram then read the appointments made upon the following committee: Committees on State of the Church; General Theo- logical Seminary ; Domestic and Foreign Relations; Admis- sions of new 1 es; Consecration of Bishops ; ons 5 Fapenses ; Uninished Business ; Hleetions ; and Prayer Book. Dr. Haxcint then offered the following :— Resolved, That cler; en of the Prot Church; trustees, profes: nt Episcopal rs and students of the General Tso: logics! students of theology who are candi- dates for ders in the eh former mothers of the House of Clerics! and Lay Dep: embers of the Vestry of Christ Church in the elty of Cincinuati, be ad- mitte 1180. It was moved to amend also inviting the English delegation, the object of Dr. Potter's former resolution. The amendwent was carried, and the resolution adopted, Mvrrar Horruan, of New York, then offered resolutions in substance, that if the Howse of Bishops coneur, the canon on penal law of the Church be referred to the Committee on Canons, who shall report at the next Con- vention of the church. This resolution was carried. The Committee on Pews again presented their report, having made a few alterations in the first report. This Teport was accepted. Rev. Dr. Dexcax, of Louiviana, moved that the name of the mover of a resolution, and ‘of the seconder, be en- tered upon the ininutes. [This was ordered otherwise, by a vote of the Conven- tion, yesterday.) He said the record could not be proved without know- ing who made tho resolutions recorded. Every one, gen- erally, fully considered the resolution hé was offering, and offered it after much consideration. ‘ Indge CHaxmens of Maryland, said—That pride was one of the infirmities of our race, and as long as it was so, the journals would be crowded with resolutions offered for no otber purpose than for inserting the name of the mover upon the minutes. He hoped the motion would be ad- hered to. He would modify however, the fifteenth rate, forbidding the insertion of @ mover of a resolution upon the minutes, by moving to amend the rule by afixing to it the words, ‘unless especially ordered by the house.”” Rev. Dr. Hicnee—If you go from the House of Repre- entatives all round to the utmost limits of our land, you will find this to be the common custom, to enter the name of the mover upon the minutes. And, shall the members of the great Episcopal church, chosen for their virtues to represent the church in con- vention, especially represent themselves to the world as vain, and desirous of such a petty reputation and getting our names upon the “minutes.’’” He thought not, and hoped the motion of the gentleman from Loui- siana would pass. After some further debate, it was decided that the names of movers of resolutions should not be entered upon the records, and the fifteenth rule of order so directing was adopted. It was then moved and carried, that one thousand five hundred copies of the sermon of Bisbop Mellvain, preached yesterday, be printed for the use of this house. Rev. Dr. l’orrer then offered a resolution, that the Hou of Bishops be requested to send a bishop and several ferior clergymen to California, which he moved be laid upon the table till to-morrow. It was moved by Mr. Buxrovans, of New Hampshire, to amend, by striking out the word “inferior,’’ so that those gentlemen sent out should not be compelled to look upon themselves as inferior men. The amendment was accepted by Dr. Potter, and the re- solution laid upon the table. It was then carried that the delegates from California de admitted into this church, and their papers be referred to the Committee on New Diocesses. It was then moved that this convention hold a daily session hereafter, commencing at nize o'clock in the morning and ending at three o’cloek in the afternoon, This ‘was carried. A message was then received from the House of Bishops, that the Board of Missi-ns would hold a meeting in <hts houre at five o'clock in the sfternoon. ‘The Convention then adjourned. TRIENNIAL MEETING OF THE BOARD OF MISSIONS OF THE PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH. The Board of Missions of the Episcopal Church met at five o'clock yesterday afternoon, in St. John's Chapel. Right Rey. Bishop Mrap opened the meeting with prayer, and presided during the session. Rev, Dr. Van Prut, Secretary, appointed Rev. Mr. Webb Assistant Secretary. Bishop Warswnionr presented, with a few brief remarks, the delegation from the Mother Country, consisting of the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop, (Spencer,) of Madras, the Venerable Archdeacon of Middlesex, the Rev. Ernest Haw- kina, and the Rev. Henry Caswall, which genth mon, being addressed by the chair, took their seats in the Convention. Upon motion, s committee was appointed to confer with the delegation from England upon the objects they had in view and report «uch conference to the Board. The report of the Domestic Committee was then read which wus reforred to a special committee by the vote of the house. few Jersey, offered the following, Bishop Doaxk, of which was adopted :— ed, That,this Board cannot adjourn withot expressing Ri ite satisfaction in having present the Lord Bishop of Fredrick- ton, The Lord Bishop expressed his acknowledgements for the honor done him. ‘ It wae then carricd that this Board mest to-morrow evening, st five o'clock, in the Church of the Ascension, comer of Fifth avenue and Tenth street. ‘The Board then adjourned. Iurortant TO Persons ENTITLED TO DivipENDs ox Uxrrep States Srocms, AND .oTHkR CLaiMants.—We gather from what we learn at the Treasury Departm that a holder of stocks of the United States, having ex cuted a power of attorney, appointing a constituent, to receive for him, and in his’ namo and stead, the dividends then due, or interest, it was held that the attorney was not authorized to receive any dividends that accrued after th of the power of attorney. In another instance, # stockholder authorized his con- stituent to receive the dividends of interest then due, or which should become due, on all stocks he then that were on the books of the troasury, It was held in this case that the power did not extend to the dividends on stocks; the principal purchased after the date of the wer. Petmilar decisions have been made on powers of att authorizing transfers or sales of stock. The difficulty is not removed by the general authority to the constituent to de whatever the principal might . If it should be the dexire of the principal t i his constituent to act for him, s# as to avoid the restrictions of these 4 cisions, be should say: ‘To receive all dividends of in est now due, or that shall hereafter become due, on all stocks of the United States now standing in my name on the Laees 3 bplpiters a? of the United States, or that may hereafter be xo entered, ‘the same form may be made applicable to the transfer or sale of stocks, by varying the language to meet the aub- ject. bade cat intended to be so haat should given explicitly. —Washington Star, Oct. 5. ‘Tre Sure Acatver Cou.

In this fact we find the true cause for «ll the political changes which have been worked out in these republics. The South Americans yield willingly to the force of xeason—never to despotism. They love freedom, not as a vain wish, but as a principle, which leads them to triumph .over ail oppositom, present rulers of South America clearly understand thas let and glory consists in protecting the rights of Eanador no more notices the threatened attack by Gene- ral Flores than she feared the last. She well knows thas the greatest evil that could happen to her would be to fall again into the hands of the man who, having prostrated her at his feet for twenty years, and squandered all her resources, did not so much as plant a single trea. ‘As to the ingratitude of the South American republics, ‘ou see in myself an example to the coutrary.

Marcy, U. 8, Seonwrary ov State. Sm—The Nyw York Hyrawb this morning contains @ correspondence relating to Mr. Walter Mf. Gibson, which justice to hima requirea me to netics, as I am the to whom he referred, and erroneous inferemoes, walnvoun= ble to him, might bo drawn from my Thave been intimately acquainted with Mr. Gibson for upwards of eight years, during several of which I have had business transactions with him, and I never observed, anything in his conduct to justify the charges you silence. men- - tion, which I believe to be quite groundless, abilities and attainments are above mediocrity; his private charac- ter is unstained; and in his busin relations his credit stoed very high, both here and in Mexico, where he had. considerable dealings, up to the spring of 1801. But at that time he sailed on an adventure to South America, leaving several debts unsettled in this city, and he oenibly originated the charges in question. At all eventa, know of nothing else that can be said against Mr. Gibson; and with respect to that adventure, I am of opinion, with all the knowledge derived from having been his profesmonal adviser, and belng aware of the state of his affairs and the arrangements he had made for the future,that he intend- ed to return at no distant period and liquidate all claims against him, including my own. But several oceurrences, which he had not anticipated, delayed his arrival in the place of destination till the ca: shipped here had become totally worthless; and thus his expectations were frustrated. induced some who were ignorant of his intentions or cireumstances$ to form an erreneous esti mate of his character. By the numerous circle ef his friends, however, which includes persons of high station cetability, Mr. Gibson is considered a gentleman eminenily dererving of the protection of the government. I selieve, also, that ho cin produce reliable vouchers for the accuracy of his statements regarding his claims om the ilolland government.
