Happy privilege!

It would be s good thing. It would | throw a flood ef light upon the subject. To _ the Park! To the Park! ‘Tue Intse Prostem.—aAt length, it seems, we | ‘have reached the point—foreseen by so many | political economista long since—the depletion of Ireland. Onur Irish immigration is falling of rapidly, and bids fair to decline tos mere nomi- nal figure: many former emigrants are re- turning to their native land : and Ireland itself in paid to be in the enjoyment of s prosperity to | which it has been:e stranger for years. Within | the last ten years, it cannot have lost less than | three to four millions of inhabitants by emigra- | tion, famine an’ diseas:: and in consequence, | those who are 4eft behind have plenty of elbow ! room, and find plenty of work at fair prices. The operation of the encumbered estates court | hag relieved the troubles: of that Jarge class of proprietors who were an incubus to the coun'ry, | and whore inability to improve their land or | tres of the laboring classes. Most of these es- now remaiss for Nova Scotia and Prince Ed- ward Island to speak out, in order to enable the President to issue his proc amat on declar- ing it in full force and effect. No obs:acle or needless delay, we magine,can be expected from either of the two Provinces whose Legis- latures have still to pronounce upon the trea-® ty ; and there is every reason to hope thut be-— fore the cold weather is over, we may be re- | ceiving our sapplics of cheap coal from our northern neighbours. We congratulate the pub- | lic on se cheering a pros,ect. A saving of three to five dollars per ‘on in our coal is not | effected every day ; he poor of New York may well be thankfal for such a reliéf at @ time when al] the necessaries of life are exorbitantly high. The coal miners will grumble, no doubt, at the failure of their combinations to “ sustain trade’; and several very worthy men, who have been iving on $100,000 a year, will be driven to starve on a bare fifty or sixty thousand. They have our sympathy in their distress. We have done our little possible to defeat their schemes, and prevent the puvlic from laying in their stock of coal at a time when the cormo- rants of Maryland and Pensylvania prophecied | divided among a large number of holders, in- cluding many of the farmers. Hence, according | to the best advices we receive, the Irish are for | once well pleased with their native Jand and | quite satisfied to remain there. The falling off |in our ‘Irish immigration will be sensibly felt here. Weare not likely, however, to be short of | laborers; for in proportion to the decline of .

It fs a “free fight;” and in this aspect, notwithstanding our manifold perplesities, we enjoy the practical blessing of popular sovereignty. Gooi! And it is that highest and most desirable of all forms of popu- lar sovereignty—the absolute right of an inde- pendent ballot. Liberty forever! We have four candidates for Mayor, each upon a separate pla:form—all promising the benefits ot good government, and from one of the four the Mayor will be chosen on Tuesday— one of the four.

The resolutions and nominations, (Clark and Ray mond,) adopted by the Auburn Convention were , afirmed, and speeches in support of them were made by Rev. Messrs. John Mareb, Cuyier, Hatfield, iractory hard and soft shells, and by the inde- pendent municipal reformers ; we are apprised, also, that there are hard shells and softs and whigs who will vote for Mr. Barker, the ard Horace Greeley. There was quite a gathering | Know Nothing ; and from some of the Kaow of Know Nothings at this meeting, and they enter- tained the outsiders by cheers for Ullman, groans ‘fer C.wk, and hisses for Raymond.

MORTALITY OF THE CITY. By the official recast of the City Inspector wa Jearn thet the to’a! number of deaths in this city @oring the week ending 4th inst. was 399, being 79 Jers than the week orevious. Of the whole number 223 were chilaren under ten yeas of age, and 67 fmmates of the public institutions, leaving but 10) deaths among < ur entire adult population. It would appear from thiathat the business of the under takers is quite dull, which no one will regret. The ebolera still has a foothold among us, 17 deaths of this disease having occurred, being seven less than the week before. Dysentery carried off 17, diarrhces 20, inflammetion cf the bowels 6, apoplexy 8, con samption 49, bronch'tis 9, congestion of the brain 7, fevers of all kinds 34, inflammation of lungs 17, fog and to increase the “ noise and confusion.” There is but another working day between us and the election. It is a short interval, and can only be efficiently appropriated to enlight en the public upen the canvass for Mayor ina grand mass meeting of all parties, to-morro 7 af- texnoon or evening, in the Park. Wecommend the proposition, therefore, to the immediate at- tention of the friends-of the four candidates still n the field, and recommend a mass meeting to- morrow evening. in the Park, at seven o'clock, and a half bour’s speech from each of the four candidates in question, defining his position, his principles, his purposes, and his expectations in behalf of the Corporation and the people, in the event of hiselection Consider this.

We publish in another colamn an account of the affray in the First ward yesterday morning, during which pelicemsn Garley received several severe stabs from a dirk knife in the hands, as is alleged. of Joha B. Holmes, a candidate for alderman. ‘Thirteen unlicensed liquor dealers in the E!event' ward were arrested yesterday, and h:ld to bail to answer. They were mostly keepers of lager bier saloons.

The defexce is highly interesting, and will doubtless receive, es it deserves, a carefal perusal by our readers. STATE OF THE MARKETS, The flour market closed firm on Satarday, with- eat further change in prices. Wheat was quiet, with bnt Jittle offering. Millers disposed to stand aloof, while the high prices check an export Gemend. Corn sold freely at a further advance of about one cent per buehel. Cotton was sterdy, with sles of 1 000 bales—the stock continued light. Mees pork was heavier, and closed at $12 25a $12 37. The chief sales were made at the inside quotations. Dirtomatic QuarréLs—Mr. Soulé must look to his laurels. If he remains quiet and peace- able another month, his glory will have been eclipeed by the more recent effulgence of ano- ther member of our foreign oorps—Mr. Daniel EB. Sickles. It is true that Mr. Soulé contrived to fight a Duke, while Mr, Sickles failed in en- @ravoring to perenade a barker to shoot him. Bet a8 @ letter-writer—there can be no compa vise betwen them, | campaign. Let us look into it a little. For example, we should learn from Mr. Barker, as the Know Nothing candidate, if he did sub- scribe, how he ‘happened to subseribe those twenty-five dollars cash for a Catholic Church at Fort Hamilton; and whether, ‘nthe event of his election, the liquor laws are to be enforced exclusively against the Irish grog shops and German ‘ager bier saloons; and whether or no “none but Americans are to be put on guard at night.” So, in reference to Mr. Herrick, the whig candidate. In defining his position, we should learn not only his exact ideas and inten- tions upon the Maine liquor law, but also in re- gard to the principles of the Seward coalition, and how far he sustains or repudiates their se- ditious «nd disunion programme for the Presi- dency. And these questions, in this Union city of New York, are of vital importance. Mr. Hunt, as the candidate of the municipal reformers from all parties, wou'd have the op- portuvity at*the meeting suggested, for a highly intersting exposition of his principles and corporation programme. We should leara something of bis plans for cleaning the sireets, or rendering our beggarly and ditty market houses, slips‘and wharves more creditable an profits ble to the vity; for reducing the suffer- ngs of the poor, the crimes of the Short Boys he expenses of: the tea room, the frauds of corporation contracts, kc. He would also have the opportunity for explaining how he happens to be a hard shell in (854, after having labored and voted for Van Buren and Adams and the Buffalo platform in 1848: and why he is supported by the Evening Post io preference to the nominee of both Stay vesant Institute and Tammany Hall. Finally, Mr. Wood at the meeting proposed, would have the most desirable and advanta- yeous occasion for confronting his accusers, ang for repelling the libellous accusations mide against him from day to day, by several of our cotemporarics. He could also appropriate the opportunity to a very desirable explanation of his precise standing on the liquor question— whether he is for “ Seymour and bad liquor,” or “ Bronson and good liquor,” as defined by Governor Dickinson. Having been nominates both by Stuyvesant Institute and Tammany Hall, and although opposed to the prohibitory liquor law, there is a donbt as to the quality and quantity of the article to be used, which, if possible, should be cleared up before Tuesday morning’s sunrise. To the great end. therefore, of a clear under- standing of thé principles, the purposes, an‘ the expectati: ifelected, of each of our four pandidates fur Mayor, ag indicated ig the fore- | increase. These are likely to be stimulated still | further by the effects of the war. Should that | Jast, and. Austria and Prussia become involved | in it, Germapy will not be avery desirable resi- | dence formen of moderate means and peaceful propensities: we may expect that the bulk of the small farmers and mechanics will exchange the faderland with its taxes and bayonets for @ free and cheap home in Wisconsin or Illinois Thus we shall not lose, and Ireland at all events will gain by the events of the last few years. Tue Gotp Movewext.—The statistics of the Bank of England bul ion reseipts and disburse- ments, whioh have lately appeared in the Eng- lish papers, are interesting. From the Ist Jan- uary of this year to 14th October, England re- ceived no lesa than $103,500,000 of gold from abroad. During the same period of time the specie in the bank vaults declined from nearly seventy-nine millions to a trifle over sixty-four. Thus in the first nine months and a half of 1854, England exported something like one hun- dred and twenty millions in gold. Part of this went to China and the East Indies; but the bulk to France and Turkey. This was precise- ly what financiers foresaw at the beginning of the war. The requirements.of the belligerents are monopolizing the res.urces which have hith- erto been absorbed in trade. Gold flows out of the bankers’ vaults to the borders of the Danube, the shores of the Black Sea,.and the ports in the Baltic. As was shown also, we, though un- concerned in the war, have been affected pre- cisely in the same ratio as England. Our ex- ports of specie from this port alone, for the ten months ending 31st Oct. ult., were $33,563,141; whicb compares as follows with the exports of former years — 11850, the specie export from New York wa ug do. do, (ton months onty) Including Boston, and other ports, our speci exportduring the past ten months has probably reached forty millions; which is, we think, fal) as muchas we have received from California and other countries. It is clear that a contest is pending between the banks of the world and the governments of Europe for the specie. When our banks find that their supply rups as low as it is at present, they curtail their business, and put the screws on their customers, in onder to prevent the spe- cie going to Europe. It goes neverthe- Jess; and the same straggle is renewed in Lon- don. Hitherto the banks have had the wor. t of it;’a few months longer drain would kill off the smaller institut'ons—as indeed jt has al- ready begun to do—and squeeze the larger ones terribly. For our part, unless we can stop our over-importations, Wall stregt will have » hard winter. Scratcuep TickkTs—As matters Iook now, there will be a great deal of scratching next Tuesday. Everybody seems particularly in- dependent, and there is very little talk about voting the clean ticket. Either party will be satisfied with a vote for any candidate on its tickes. Party lines are co entangled and knotéed that they can neither be cut or untied, and they are neglected altogether. This is an awfal state of things for the politicians, but very good for the people. Wuar’s tax Matrer ?—The Boston Traveller says that although the election takes place noxt week, that neither party in that city has opened a “head quarters,” or had a “general rally.” What's the matter? Where are the solid men of Boston? Where are the State street whigs, with linen as stiff and spotless as their princi- | ples? Where is Mr. Hallett’s «conveniently | small” party of administration democrats? Have the Know Nothings broken them up? We expect strange news from Massachusetts on | ‘ the second Monday of November. Tar Dry Dock Savixos Banx.—An article appeared in our paper some days ago ia refer- ence to savings banks. We omitted to men- tion, as among the sound institutions, that of the Dry Dock Savings Bank, which, we are as- sured, is among the safest in the city, By the report made to he Common Council it is ascer- tained that its funds are all invested according to law, whilst the character of its trustees gives every confidence of its proper management in other particulars. Lasor Tarown Away.—Several of the city papers are publishing affidavits to prove that certain of the candidates are Know Nothings. Tu two or three cases this is unnecessary work —it is a literal and melancholy fact. The gen- tleman who offers to bet $1,000 on such a ques- tion, cannot win, because he has, in sporting phrase, a “sure thing.” Tur Sraeets.— Brio Ovr THe Brooms.—Mr. Glazier ought to know that the city is getting very dirty again—the Fifth, Sixth, and Eighth wards are particularly nasty about this time. Will the commissioner hurry up the contrac- tors, or must the people hurry up the commis- sioner? ‘Tae Last BomparpMent.—<A shell was thrown from Wall street into Tammany, yesterday. On account of the great length of the fusee it had hot exploded at the last accounte, “higher prices yet.” When the article sells at $5 a ton, we shall consider our task accom- plished, Say Tue Oyster Trade has recommenced, and the execution done upon Mill Ponds, Shrewe- burys, and East Rivers is almost a: great as ever. Candidates may now invite their adhe- rents to:take “half s dozen on the shell” with- out being in danger of losing a vote. Downing is radiant.and the country is safe. Fires in New York. Fink 1y AVENUE A.—Between 1 and 2 o'clock ou Satur- day morning, a fire took place in the lager beer saloon of Jobn Rodi, at No. 58 Avenue A. The firemen were early at the fire, and extinguished it before it extended beyond Esq., agent of the tna Insurance Company. Total loss where it originated. On examining the premises after the fire, it was evident that it had been the work of de- sign, as fire had been communicated in two different places. The greatest body of the fire had taken place on some shelvings back of the bar, and in addition to that fire had been set in the cellar amongst alot of chips. Mr. Rodi occupied the back basement as a sleeping apart- ) and the mails will be carried over that road to-morrow. ment with his family, and says he did not know anything about the origin of the fire until the alarm came from the street. He has occupied the said premises since the Ist of last March, but did not get insuréd until the 11th of October, then he effected an insurance of $700 in the Rutgers Insurance Company, $300 of which was on his saloon, and $400 on his household furniture contained in the sinall rear basement. The damage is extimated at oats $200. The Fire Marshal will investigate the whole affair. Fiax in Brexman Srreer.—Last evening, shortly after 7 o'clock, an alarm of fire was given for the Seventh dis- trict, caused by a fire occurring in the cracker bakery of Johnson & Treadwell, No. 110 and 112 Beekman strect. The fre was occasioned, we understand, by carelessly leaving a lighted candle on a basket filled with crackers on the third floor, the candle burnt dowa, and then set the basket on fire. Officer Bingham, of the Second ward discovered the fire, broke into the building, and few pails-of water the Hames were extinguished Fier in Wasmineton, Street.—Shortly after 11 o’clock last night, a fire broke out in the butter store of Wic! § ham & Co., No, 230 Washington «treet. The flamen spread rapidly to the grocery store next door, on the- corner of Robinson street. The upper part of the stores were oceupied by several poor families; the fire spread so furiously that the occupants had not time to get down stairs, nor aave but very little of their property, One woman threw her child out of the second story window on the tin roof awning, and then jumped out after it, whence she was taken by the firemen and conveyed toa neighbors; her face was tlightly cut by the fall. Subse- quently # portion of the awning gave way, and injured ir. Mooney and one or.two others slightly. The stock in the butter store was nearly all consumed, and the greater part of the rs stock was also destroyed. The firemen extinguished the flames, leaving the build- ing etanting. It was a frame building. Damage esti- mated at between $3,000 and $4,000. We understand it ¥ 45 all eovered by insurance. Marine Affairs, tay Sreamame Wasetveton, Captain Cayendy, sailed for Bremen, via Southampton, at twelve o'clock yester- day, with 58 passengers, and $135,731 in specie. PLUNDERING THK WRECK OF THE Sap Dera Manss.—It will be remembered that this vessel was wrecked on Martin’s Industry during the August gale, while on her passage from Liverpool to Charleston. A portion of her cargo Was, we understand, taken off, zal haying been bontled at our Custom Hotse, was sent to Charleston, for which salvage was paid. Since-then it has been dis: covered that a amount of goods has been carried off from the wreck, and-for the past two or three weeks the Custom House officers, assisted by several uf the city police, haye been zealously en, in searching for and recovering the property. We learned yesterdsy that they” had succeeded in getting possession of so:e two thousand dollars worth of goods, consisting of dry goods, hardware, china ware, cai 5 a of which was found buried and secreted on Ty! |, and the balance in the possession of parties in this city. A por- tion of the property taken from the ship was brought up to the city in boats, and landed under cover of the night, and has since been traced to the possession of various persons in town. The officers both of the Custom Honse and police have been indefatigable in their efforts ,to trace up the missing goods, and have succeeded in ob- taining information which will lead to the recovery of most of them.—Savannah News, Nov. 1 " TELEGRAPHIC.
