Dve. 5.—Mary Jane Watson vs. Adeline Schermerhorn. —The plaintiff in this case, by her counsel, Mr. J. W. Gerrard, complains of @ trespass on and injury done to her premises, 36 Warren street, where she keeps a board- ing house. The defendant, it is alleged, without the plain- tiff’s consent or permission ,entered on her premises in Oc- tober last, by digging under the foundation of the house six feet in width down Perpendicsiatis spent feet, thereby ousting the plantiff from that portion of the pre- mises, and has since erected @ wall along the whole ex- tent of the house and retains possession thereof. The plaintiff also complains that the defendant broke through the foundation wall into one of the basement rooms, and introduced there large pieces of timber, occupying & large portion of the room, depriving the plaintit! of the use of it, and bcitiay 3 away all the leaden pipes used for supplying house with Crot: yr water, as well as the kitchen range, boilers 4 apparatus.

Verdict for plaintiff six cents. Superior Court—General Term. Before Chief Justice Oakley and Hon. Judges Duer and Campbell. A MERCANTILE LIBEL SUIT. Dc. 5.—Henry OC. Bowen, appellant, ads. Richard G. Fowles, respondent.—This is an appeal from a verdict rendered before Judge Bosworth in March, 1868, It will be recollected that it was an action for slander, brought by Mr. Fowles against Mr. Bowen, of the firm of Bowen & McNamee, of this city. Fowles was clerk to the de- fendant’s firm, of Bowen & McNamee, in New York, from September 1, 1849, to November 1, 1851. When leaving their employ, they gave him a strong letter of recommendation. If was signed by H. L. Stone, one of the firm. Stone was a witness for the defendant, and, after an ineffectual attempt to insinuate to the contrary, he was obliged to swear that it was given with the know: ledge and assent of Bowen, himself, and the partner McNamee. He also awore that it was & fraud and deceit on their part, and contrary to the known truth, as they all considered Fowles at the time to bea liar. The letver was as follows :— New York, Dec. 15, 1851. The bearer of this, Mr. Richard G. Fowles, being de- sirous of seeking his fortune in the West, it affords us much pleasure to say that he has been in our employ for the last two years, during which time he has had charge of one of our principal departments, and attended to his duties in a competent and satisfactory manner. BOWEN & McNAMEE. Fowles went to Ohio, and on January 1, 1852, entered into the service of a firm ia Cincinnati, named George ‘ood. Jacob F. Cole, and Lewis (. Hopkins, were members of that firm, and were examined as witnesses for the plaintiff to establish both the slander and the special damage. In a conversation with Mr. Cole, Mr. Bowen said :— “Mr. Fowles had became such a notorious liar that we could place little or no confidence in him. In fact, so strongly were we convinced of his dishonesty that we have written to John Shillotts, of Cincinnati, to employ a | seey force to watch him. This course was brought about rom the fact of Fowles having some six trunks in his possession when he left New York.’’ The defendant, on the trial, which lasted four days, contended that his communication was privileged.’ The Judge, in his charge, said :—‘If the defendant state in his answer that he will prove the charge to be true, but fails to do so, such conduct is deemed an aggravation of the original wrong, and justifies a jury in increasing the damages. If you find in favor of the plaintiff, you are not re- stricted to such a verdict as will compensate the plain- tiff for his actual loss. You may give exemplary damages, or, as is sometimes expressed, damages by way of smart money.”’ The jury readered verdict for plain tiff for $6,000. The defendant moves for a new trial on exceptions to the charge, and on theground that the verdict of the jury was contrary to law and evidence, and the iamages excessive. Decizion reserved. United States District Court. Before Hon. Judge Betts. Dro. 5.—Washington Plummer was found guilty of gruel and, unusual punishment on seaman named Baker, on board the ehip Waterwitch, of which Plum- mer was master.

Owens and John Kittleman vs. David Kunz.—This action was brought to recover da 8 for injuries alleged to have been done to the plaintiffs’ horse, through the carelessness and negligence of the defé It appeared in evidence that about the 20th June last, plaintiffs’ horse was going down Nineteenth street, under the care and guidance of one of their employes, when near the corner of Seventh avenue, the defendant’s horse and cart came dashing along ata furious rate, ran against plaintiffs’ horse, knocked him down, and drag zed bim some Gistance, from the effect of which plaintiffs’ horse was kept under the care of a veterinary surgeon some three months, and that he was reduced in vaiue from $350 to $400 to $150. The defence was, that as defendant was driving his horse and wagon quietly along, a woman who had formerly been a tenant of his, and whom he had turned out for non-payment of rent, was coming along, and commenced, in the language of the witness, peg” ging stones at him;”’ that for the purpose of catching the woman defendant jumped out of his wagon, when a atone struck the horse, who thereupon started off, ran away, and capsized plaintiffs’ horse, The jury found de- fas guilty of negligence, and rendered a verdict lor $380. From the Ohio State Journal, Dec, eR | Some time since Mr. Aaron Dunbar, of Marlberough, Stark county, Ohio, advertixed for a housekeeper. ‘This met the eye of a very respectable widow lady of thie city, who, through the medium of some triends, applied for the situation, A correspondence thereupon ensued be- tween the parties interested, which soon ended In a court- sbip. Daguerreotypes were exchanged, and a day set for the weddi: On Saturday last he came to thin 3a. of making arrangements tor the wedding, and put up at the Blind Asylum, where the lady was staying.

'* @ American vessels have been seized at Baracoa, (a * gaport town on the northern extremity of Cuba,) with arms and ammunition of war, and several persos have been imprisoned on that account. Among the prisoners several officers and soldiers ot the garrison of that place are found, who were united with the Creoles to strike the blow of insurrection. It ix likewise reported that a movement has taken place at Las Funas, a small interi- or village in the Central Department, sixty-six miles east of Principe, apd one hundred and fifty-six miles north west of St. Jago de Cuba, and another in Principe, the capital of the Central Department, situate four hundred and fifty-three miles from Havana, and two hundred and thirty-four from St. Jago de Cuba, and viewed as the great rendezvous of the insurrectionary party. We are not im possession of the details in consequence of the secrecy of the government, which bas the power to prevent the circulation of news, and even to retard the progress of truth itself, which would hasten its rain were it but generally divulged. Be this as it may, it is certain that the Governor of this city has ordered the whole of the flying artilery and part of the regiment of Cuba to the interior, and it is easy to comprehend that measures of such a magnitude ‘would not be adopted if they were not imperiously calied for by the pressure of the circumstances. ‘There is a very important fact on which we wish to fix your attention. It is this: that in Beracoa, Las Tunas and Principe, the troopa have manifested their opinion favorable to the revolution, by sympathizing with the people and proclaiming together the uoly prin- ciple of liberty, We should not be surprised at this Had we not witnessed several instances of the kind pre. vuiling in South America, where many officers and xol- diers abandon the banner of despotism to aftiliate them- selves in the ranks of liberty, it ix sufficient to know how unhappy is the fate and condition of the solier in Cuba, in order to comprehend how natural it is, and how strong his desire of imagination and his disposi- tion to recover his liberty. ‘This is precisely what is shown in the present acts of the troops. ‘These tyrants should not forget the instance of Carde- nas. Several soldiers there deserted their banner to join the liberators, and the same desertion will be observed so soon as the revolution begins and extends throughout the island. The government will be reduced to its own impotence, abandoned by everybody, Those who depend upon the fidelity of the army to sustain their despotism will receive a cruel lesson, They will see the good sons of the people who were snatched by force and’ violence from their hearths and homes, will show themselves the worthy brothers of those who, only about three inonths ago arose at Vicalvans, in Spain, to the cry of liberty. ‘The Delta also says:— “We have received from a rehable Cuban gentleman copy in Spanish of the following document, which pur- ports to bean address of the ‘‘Lerrorists,”” as they style themselves, to the Cubans, calling upon them to rise’ in revolution.’ We translate the document, and present it to our readers with the simple expression of a hope that our Cuban friends may give us something better than words to justify our confidence in their patriotism, their valor, and their desire for independence.” TO THE CUBANS. Cubans !—The moment has come at last to bring your | valor and patriotism to the proof. Now is the time to endorse your sentiments of honor and heroism, and to emonstrate how worthy you are of being called broth- ers of those brave men who died for the defence of our country’s sacred rights. The future destiny of our be- wed Cuba, and the happy issue of our revolution, de pend entirely on your arms. Cubans !—The strength of your arms ir every moment needed to help us to dethrone the tyraat. Bear in mind that we shall raise the cry of insurrection at a mo- ment’s warning; and we shall haye no other resource but death or victory. There will be many to doubt our word; but woe to the unbelievers! tor they shall be surprised in their inactivity, and will be the victims of their carelessness. Cubans, to arms !—Let those who are men follow us; let those in whose bosoms beat a patriotic heart be pre: pared for the combat; let those who still preserve a en- timent of dignity—let those who feel the outrages cast upon us by the government—lst those who have been tormented by imprisonment, who have lost their proprr- ty by scandalous confiscation, who had any relationship, cr friendship, or sympathy ‘for Lopez, Aguero, Arcis, Armenteros, Montesoea, Facciclo, and many others who bled and died at the hands of the executioners and sol- | diers—let them arise to punish the wretches and conquer our rights. Let them come to the Geld, there to remain vapquishers or vanquished. ; To all cowards, flatterers, and friends of the Spanish government, and unto all tories, we equally announce the approach of the revolution. "There shall be no pity shown to any. Webad enongh of it in 1851, and experi- ence is at us that we must impose terror to attain our aid. e, therefore, invoke a revolution to cast off the domi- nation that has weighed upon our country for upwards of three hundred and sixty years, and proclaim a demo- cratic republican government ! which will take for its model that ot the United States of North America. We will know no neutrality till the establishment of peace. All persons who should deny us shall be considered traitors and sbot as such. All persons capable of bearing arms must join us, or, on denial, be ntly shot. All bd pa ll be respected. We will seize upon everything pertaining to the go- vernment. Tho revolution once effected, nothing will check our progress. Our ideas are not opposed to humanity, but thore Cubans who will not voluntarily follow us, will have to abide by the above-mentioned conditions. Let those who love liberty, order and justice, come to our aid. Hail free Cuba! Death to Concha! Down with despots and traitors! Citizens, to arms! Let us con- quer or die! The Guano Trade, TO THE EDITOR OF THE NBW YORK HERALD. Your correspondent, ‘* Ammenia,” in Saturdsy’s paper, shoaid not express “ surprise” st the former statement. Ammonia is a corrosive poison to both animal and vegetable life. The tact is well estab- lisbed, and the careful reader, by consulting the best authorities, could long ago have ascertained the fact, without resorting to a practical demon- stration on his own eystem, or on his equally valas- ble wheat crop. Dr. Ure, testing of ammonia, says:—‘' An animal plunged into it speedily dies:” (Chem. Dictionary, page 149.) The United S:ates Diepexeary, by authority of ail our medical so200l8, —the highest authority known in this country on pare ammonia—ssys: “It is irreapirable, the glotis cloving spasmodicatly when the attempt is made to breathe it;” (page 80.) Like arseuic and other poisons, it is sometimes administered ia sm: doses; and, in extraordinary cases, when takeo ic the form of aqua ammonia, iargely diluted witt wa- ter, it is given to the extent of ten to thirty drops; “« when swallowed in an over dose, ita effects are thoee of a corrosive poison,” (ib., page 850.) Plants encounter ammonia from the Peruvian guano, in the form of soluble saline compounds, mostly carbonate. Liebig eays:—‘‘It has been ob- served that where a soil is woo highly impregnated | ‘with soluble ealine materials, these are separated upon the surface ef the leaves. In consequence of these exodations the plant sickens, ita organic ac- tivity decreaves, ita growth is disturbed, and, if thie state continves long, the plant dies.—(Liebig’s Lev- ters on Chemistry, page 37.) Perhaps your corres: pondent “Ammonia” will deem no authority sup-. rior to the statements collected and published here in pamphlet form by the agents of the Peruvian government, in their efforts to introduce the ammo niscal guano of the Chincha Islands to our farmers, | SumiLous compour: ‘They izvited statements from practical and profes sional sgriculturiste who bad used the ammonisca’ of Mexican, }, and abcut 24 per cent of the gross weight of ‘Peruvian In other fern | Mexicen cont in round pambers, three | times as mach phosphate of lime as the P-ravien. Now, if “ lime ie the only valuable apgreciept im guano of apy kind,” then clesr- ly the Mexican guan> is worth three times | poses. To settle this poms, we should kuow | | quire. A number of spatyses of the Peruvian aud | exican guanca show their constituents to b- :— Peruvian. Mexican.

Plants require nitrogen: analysis shows tney con- tain it, but science bas shown precisely how they get it. Meadow hay abonnds with it,and always | abounds with it, tough no nitrogen, ammonia, or mavure of any kind is placed there by man. Li2- big says, “the prodaceot nitrogen ou a meadow, which receives no nitrogenized manure, is greater then frat of afirld of wheat, whicn hag been mun- ured.” Plants jive, like mau, ia om atwosphere ¢ )n- uted of one measure of oxygen. with four mea- es of nitrogen, woen pure, besides containing smal) portions of carbonie acid, odora, ammonia, moisture, &c.—ammonia ite:If being & compound of nitrogen and hyoregen. Liebig and others have supposed, from s) uthesis only, that plants, by de- composing the ammonia alwaye floating i2 tne at- =aee and in rain water, could, and do get all the nitrogen they require from that inex: bauatible source; nu ove doub’s they get all treir carbon from tne varbovic acid of the at- tosphere, and, synthetically, some sup that they get the nitroges in the same way. Now p'ants living in sn atmospbere four fifths of whose bulk is pure nitrogen, may s;mpathetically be sap- pored to take their nitrogen trom such 4 convenient, wholesome source, sitbout putting themeelves to the trouble of decomposing the noxious, poisonous ammonia, which in small portions pervades all po- rous matter, as wel! asthe vores of plants and the atmosphere. By much practice and careful synthe- | sis, we might suggest another very convenient and | inexhanetible source of nitrogen, but having no de- | | sire to anneunce a new era in egricultural chemis- | | try, we prefer to take the higrest known authorities on that subject; they all sgree that the atmosphere, | | either by 118 princpal constituent, or by the ammo- | Bia floating in it, can and dose always farnieh an | abundant supply of nitrogen to all classes of vege- | tation. if that theory’is true, then surely the nitro- | mn and the ammonie of Peruvian guano are werth- | legs—worth jess thaa nothing for any agriczitural | purpose, unless it could be applied to poison and destroy the Canada thistle, the army and grub- worm ,that are almort as cbnoxious as ammonia itselt, | Turner’s chemistry, the bighees authority on tra: | subject, and the eg>tn Louden edi:ion cf it, edited | by Baron Leibig, equally bigh, eays: ‘ Itunust never | be forgotten, that 1f plants are suppliedeitrer f.om | the soil or in the manure, with the indispensable mi- ners] salts, namely, the ulkalies, silica, phosphates, | sulphates, lime, and magnesia, they will supply | | themeelves with ammonia from the atmosphere.” | | (Page 1,3. “The nitrogen of vegetables is derived | chiefly, if not exclusively, from ammonia, which is | supplied to them om rain :” id. 1,809. Phe soil it. eelt, like all porous bodies, possesses the proverty | of absor big ammonia, and therefore will atsract it from the atmerpbere.

Liebig says: “‘ Ashes represent the whole bourisbwert which vegetables recive from che svil. | By furnishing them in sufficient quantities, we give | | tothe plants the power of condensing and absorb ing carbon and nitrogen by their surfases, May not the effect of the solid and fluid ex:renenta, which | are the asbee of plats sud grains which have un: cergone combustion in the bodies of avimals and mew, be dependent upon the same cause? Snould nov the fertility resaling from their applicatim be altogether izdepencens ct the samauouis toey con- tain?

Ausary, Dec. 3, 1854, The Election Capsized all the Old Hulks—Deno- crats being Powerless may Reunite--The Whigs, | although Holding Everything under the State Government, were Newer so Weak, Distracted, or | Disabled. The defeat of both Seymour and Bronson, the respective candidates of the divided democracy, for Governor of this State, and also that of Seward, the whig candidate for the Uvi'ed States Senate, are resuits that may tend to the reconstruction aud unity of both parties. Much depeads upon the action of the ivcoming Legialature. The course of non-committal members of the House will be strict- ly observed, and their objects closely scrutinized, The only matters of moment in which mach in- terest is felt, and those at all canvassed at the polls, were with reference to the question of United States Senator and the prohibitory liquor law. No other questions were iu issue. Toe Neoraska mat- ter, about which such a tremendous excitement was raised, was scarcely alluded to or cared for, and, in teuth, dwindled into insignificance in compariaon with the issues above referred to. Neither the hards or the softs have gained spy advantege over each other. The popu- larity of the national administration was not tested at the polls between the two factions of the dem cy. Toe votes of the hards were divided between Bronson, Seymour, and Uliman. One quar- ter of Seymour's vote came from tae aoti-Maine law bonkers, aud ove third, if not one-bal: of Ullman’s, from the same section of the democracy, under the certain of defeating Clark or Seymour, as if cast for Uiman. 1t sw evi ent therefore, that there wis no @irect test of s:rengta between the bunkers avd the barpburneis, cr soite, Ihe haros have now two Sta ¢ offi.ers, Mr. Follett, Cana! Commissioner, and Mr. Clark, S'u1e P: ison Inapestor, both o: whom wil! remain mm office another year, and then retire to private life. the softs have not a representative in eithee of tne Stut+ departments, when a \ear siace they held dcmmant avd intoerant sway. In the Senate, the ards bave tive membera, the softs only two. in the next house the bs.rds und softs will be nesrly ¢qualy divided, and both combine? will not constitute one-thied of the house. Beg in such a deciced minority, and no legtslative or executive Tteponeipili'y to assume or apticipate—no offices to bestow—no “friends to reward or enemies to pun'sh” —they way glide along smoothly through the ses- sion without performing ~y either section, or distur> the elements which the late election nas undoubtedly caimed. Uncer such a state of things, is there any bility of a spesdy “democratic fasion?” Wil the campaign of 1855, be harmonious? Will the bards and softs be found fighting shoulder to ehouider in the next engagement ? Will a truce be éffected—a suspension of sec. tional bestilitiee—a permanent peace’ Yes, under certain conditions. Tsere mast be no desire manifested for the re-election ot Franklin Pierce ; Mercy, Cusbing and Campbell must not undertake to “crush out” apy more bunkers who happen to held sabordinate swtions under them; ail the Cocbrane’s, Schell’s, Fowler’s, O’Conor’s and Soeprerd’s in the city of New York, together with the assumed dictators in Albany sad Buffalo, must be thrust aside and take private stativn in the rear Or amalgamated, and new editrs, new v ners, new counre}lo s—tnose who have in no wise engen- dered the heatili Jes which now exist—mmust be aub- wituted. There must be no more Pierce’s and Sey: Mour’s elected, under the spurious guise of ‘union avd baimony.” Ths eatly apd easy prediction must be s warning tor futare action. Mach effort, uptuing and enduring, most be had, be‘ore the democratic party cap regain the streneth and po- siiion it bus jost by the misplaced cor fidence repos- ed in sheee two weak individnals, Can all these things be accoroplished ? fo undertake & Jess effort, wil prove absclately wbortive ; but it muat not be attempted upless the proper means are used. Ve tenies, aut perfice. The election bas proved as disastrous to the whigs as to their divided opporents. bompsby have the Guvervor, the State officers, the Canal Beard, and both brancoes of the Legislata-e, the whig party was never in a more ricketty and dis- cordant condition than it will be on the 1st of Janu- ary. It was a thousand fold stronger at the time of Gen, 8 ctt’s feilure to reach the Presidential honors And emoluments. It was even stronger at the time Mr. Fitmore was engaged in ‘ rewarding nla fuencs” vy “crushing out” his woolly Ssward eae- mies. The whig party was more adhesive, more traterns)], mere united, when Capt.

An Effort tobe Made to Restore Canali Tolls on Rarivood Fyeight--The Governor and Regency Opposed to it--An Active and Unserupulous Lobby to be on hand During the Pending of the Question in the Legislature-—The Success of the Bicasure very Doubtful. Next to the discussion on the probibitory liquor Jaw, at the ensuing session of the Legislature, wil! he the question of imposing canal tol on railroad freight. The attention of the people has been more than ever drawn to this subject during the pas: eea- son, ia conseqnenve of the immense quantities of best paying freight, both up end down, baving been transferred from the canals t> railroad care; and also from the indisputable fact that whilst canal tolls have greatly decreased, those of the rosds have incressed nearly twenty-five per cent. The revenue derived from the canals bas been diminishing for several seasons, and inetesd of @ large annual ad- vance, us anticipated by all cur State officers in years yove by, there is an actual falling off. Accurate statements of the amount of business done on the corals wre easily obtained and furnished for public ijoapection; we know the amount of western pro- duce which paszes threugh the canals to tide water, ard also the quantity ot merchandise, &c., transyort- ed upward)y and eastward!y.

This repeal | bili was run through bota houses with the hottest haste, and was signed by the Governor in double wick time. All thie wes done without a na | tition satis gp the repea), or without allo: friends of the canals & m:m:nt’s time to present | their remonstrances againat it. Buch is a true state of the case. The toils having been discon- | tinued, the power of the rairoads combined has | prevented their restoration. The State ought, most aseured)y, not to sllow ary competitors to absorb | the legitimate caral resources until the entire oacal debt of the State shall become extinguished, or cer- tainly net until the public works are compieted.
