THE TEMPERANCE MEN AND MAYOR WOOD. The Seventh Ward Temperance Society had a great demonstration last evening, at Botanic Hall, 68 East Broadway, President Duffin the chair. Able speeches were delivered by Mr. J. Gregg and others. The hall ‘was crowded, toany not being able to get standing room, The following resolution, which was moved by Jeremiah T. Brooks, seconded by James Scott, and sustained ina speech by Dr, H. A. Benton, was unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the Seventh Ward Temperance At ciation tender their warmest thanks and hearty co. ration to his Honor Mayor Wood, for the effort he has made, and the bold stand he has taken, to close the dram sips on Sunday, and that it will meet with the warmest thanks of hundreds, and the humble prayers ‘of thousands will be poured out for his prosperity. THE CLOSING OF THE DRINKING SALOONS, New York was a sober city yesterday. The metropo- lis was on its legs, and not in the gutter. Nearly all the drinking saloons were closed—no drunken men to be seen—and the police magistrates astonished at the want of busing Justice Osborn remarked that he never witnessed a more quiet Sabbath. Only one prisoner in the Sixth ward station house yesterday. Sunday gene- rally closes with forty or fifty. People ask the reason of all this, The answer ef the policemen was—‘‘Wood is Mayor—he is!’ Allright! We hope that Wood will continue to slow in this way that he is Mayor. The Hard Times, MEETING OF THE GERMAN WORKINGMEN—THE NEW YORKER STAATS ZEITUNG DENOUNCED-—-THE MAS3 DEMONSTRATION POSTPONED--SPEECHES, ETC. Quite a large meeting of German workingmen assem- ‘bled at Hildebrand’s Hall, No. 160 Hester street, on Sa- turday evening, to make preparations for the demonst ‘tion which was to have come off to-day in front of the City Hall. Mr. P, Roetel was appointed chairman, and Mr. C, Bel- lair secretary. After the meeting was organized, considerable dis- cussion arose a4 to the propriety of allowing the reporter of the New Forker Staats Zeitung to take notes of the Proceedings, The course that journal pursued in refer- ence to the labor movement among the Germans was commented on with great soverity. At this stage of the proceedings the utmost confusion prevailed--every one desiring to speak, and no one disposed to hear. Mr. Alex. Elelscheike, Dr. Schrum and Mr. Roetel contended for the freedom of the press, no matter what its coure might be; and their arguments had the effect of indacing | the meeting to pass a resolution allowing the reporter to remain. A discussion here ensued between Mr. Lindeman and others as to the propriety of the German workmen hav- ing a mass demonstration as proposed in an advertise ment in the New Yorker Staats Zeitung. It was at length decided not toturn out on Monday, but instead to attend the meeting of the American unemployed work- men at Hope Chapel, this evening. This matter being settled, the chairman introduced Mr. Ws. Weet—He said that he was glad to learn thet the German popu'ation knew the value of land, and ap preciated the efforts of their American brethren to se cure to them their right to the use of the soil which God | had given equally to all of his children, and which it was | the duty of the American government to secure to all of | its citizens, (Applaure.) The condition of the working- men of all nations now in this country was very dis- | tressing. They had no work, but little to eat, and ver, miserable shelter. All, with one accord, united in their petition to the government, that they may have | occupation in the erection, on the public laads and lots belonging to the city, of buildings suitable: for the ten- | antry of New York. They wanted the right to labor—that is all. any charitable aid. They’ ought to have it, and he was very happy to say that th re was possibility that the prayer of the workingmen to the Mayor and Common | Council would be granted. At all events, if the city legislators were given to understand that if they should dare to dispose of their prayer without at least doing something by way of an appropriation ia behalf of its ob- jects, there would be thousands of votes cast against | them whenever tney should be again candidates for any office within the gift of the people, In conclusion, Mr. West invited the Germans to atten’ a meeting of the worl en to be held at Hope Chapel, this (Monday) evening, at half-past 7 o'clock, of which there would be , due notice given in the papers on Monday. | Mr. West took bis seat amid great applause, anil the invitation to attend the mecting was unauimously ac- | cepted. Ir. Ita B Davia was then introduced, and spoke as follows :—Feliow -citizens—I labor under some disadvan tage, as 1 could not understand the speakers that ad- dressed youin the Gerinan language; and, therefore, I may repeat some eg that have been said by others; | yet I shouid not satisfy my own feelings, or do justice to the cause, if Idid not say something. Ican say that this meeting, and the agitation of the subject of more just and equitable laws, fills my soul with intense plea- | rure. (Applause.) Thus far legislation has been do- yoted to the protection of property in the pcssession of | thore who, by the fraudulent systom of trade under which we live, have obtained it, and thus far legislation has only aystematized the fraud. (Applause.) Work- ingmen, od are the producers of the wealth of thir i If they had that, they could dispense with t, community, and no matter in whore hands same may be, the property rightly belongs to you.

Commodore Boardman last week gave notice to the master carpenters, laborers, &c., that the wages of the men employed in the Brooklyn Navy Yard must be re- duced—joiners, from $250 to $225 per day, and the other branches in proportion, The employés in the yard, believing that the Commodore had no authority for this course of action, held @ mecting on Saturday evening, at the Brooklyn Hotel, corner of Hudson ave- nue and Prospect street.

A GOOD IDEA~-WHY NOT BUILD THE NEW RESERVOIR ? 10 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD, Among the multitudinous plans which have been sug- gested for the alleviation of the poor, I have seen no reference made to the subject of the new reservoir, the construction of which would furnish employment to a very large number of men. Byanact of the Legislature, passed two years ago, all the property lying between the Fifth and Seventh avenues, and Kigty-sixth and Ninety. sixth streets, became vested in the city for the purpose of this necessary improvement, and which the interests of the city demand—as conceded on all sides—should be commenced and carried to its completion without delay. The property comprised in the above boundaries covers @ space of twenty lenge blocks; and it is estimated that one thousand men at least can be employed on this work, and that over two years will be required for its com. pletion, Under these circumstances would it not be wise, as well as humane, to let the work be commenced without delay, thereby furnishing employment to those who do not covet the degradation of beggary’ Many months have elapsed since commissioners were appointed to estimate the amount to be paid to the owners of the property, and still no report forthcoming. The interest of « thousand families is para- mount to that of the commissioners, who have en- joyed their three dollars per day for many months for services which need not have occupied more than a month or two at the farthest. The city re- quires this new resorvoir for its own protection, as any accident to the Croton works would illustrate, while a thousand voices, tremulous with suffering and want, plead for employment.

WILSON. The original committee appointed at the mass meeting | in the Park, have been collecting moncy for some time | past to relieve the necessities of the poor. They report the receipt of $240 50, of which they have expended $214 50, leaving a balance of $36 in their funds. They have opened a depot at 69 Fourth avenue, where they will receive donations, provisions, &c., from such as may be divposed to give them, to be dispensed to the poor.

THE UNSOLVED PROBLEM—SPEECH OF BRIGADIER GENERAL JOHN SIDNEY JONES, OF THE PENNSYLVA- NEA MILITIA. ‘The following strange announcement appeared in Sun day morning’s Heraty:~ Tax Sonven Prowtem—To THe Pentic--Gen, Joba Sidney | Jones. of Pennsylvania, a well known citizen, largely interested in the welfare and p-osper ty of New York, will attend the meeting in the lark this afternoon (Sun: day), at two o'clock, God willing, to give his views to alleviate the present necd of the poorer classes of sozic- ty, in harmony with Fannie Lee Townsend, of Massachu setts, and others representing the Jubilee Association of the Daughters and Sons of Toil. P, McDERMOTT, Secretary, At two o'clock about a dozen persons had assembled to assist in the solution of the problem, whatever it might Le, but there was no sign of the speakers who had pro- mised to be present. At length, about three o'clock, « singular looking individual made his appearance in fron} of the steps,and began to declaim with great energy. He was a small man, with quick, sharp eyes, long gray bair falling in ringlets over his shoulders, anda red beard aud moustache, He was dressed in an overcoat ani pants of woollen material, with red and gray stripes, a vest of white flannel, anda blue dreas coat with brass butions. He was further adorned with a cravat of a bright blue colgg with a fancy tic. This odd-looking genius introduced himself as General Jony Stoney Jones, of the Pennsylvania State Militia, He commenced with a fierce tirade against the Common | Council of this city, who, he said, was doing all they could to crush the poor. After talking for some time in this strain, he stopped, and wished to know if any one else desired to speak. No one answering, he then asked if some of the gentlemen im the crowd hadn't a good segar togive him. Here a rather seedy king gent stepped forward and offered him one, which ne accept- ed, and commenced to enicke and speak with great energy.

Steamer Day at our Post Oitice, ‘The foreign mail sent out by the Pacific, on the 27th ult., w..9 the largest ever despatched from our shores, Five of the large mail wagous were employed in convey- ing the bags from the Post Office to the ship, In cousequeees of the withdrawal of several of the Atiantic mail steamers, we have oo semi weekly mail, except at long intervals, and consequensly the woekly mails must be correspondingly heavior. The number of letters sent forward by tho Pacific, in- cluding those from the Britirh Provinces, &,, were cul- culated at 110,000, of whieh 67,663 were stamped and made up at the New York ofica alone. Of the whole number of bags sent, one hei were made up at thls Post Office. In consequence of the large increase of mail matter sent forward by each steamer, and the tardiness of mer- chants, bankers and others, in doliveriog their letters at the Post Office, it is feared that the mail must in future close one half an hour earlier, unless the matter is remedied by those whose interest it is so to do. On the 27th ult. the heavy letter bogs made up at the Post Oftice were not despatched from thence untila quar- ter before 12—the hour of sailing; and had not the steamer delayed sailing in order to receive the mails, they would have been left behind. It was found utterly impossible, notwithstanding every effort, to make up the matter sooner. Tho cause of the difficulty, we learn, is thatthe merchants and others do not, until the last moment, take their letters to the Post Office, and, as a consequence, the great labor of making them up is obliged to be performed in a limited time. For example: 7,056 letters were deposited in the Post Office on the 27th ult., between 9 A. M. and 10:25; 10,022 after 10:25, when the hour of closing was 10:20—over 10,000 to be received and postage taken in five minutes! In consequenco of the vast number waiting, the closing of the mail was ex- tended to 10:50, and in consequence of such extension the mails were twenty minutes behind at the shi Now, if, instead of the delay in sending thoir letters, the merchants would keep until near mail closing only those which they deem important for late advices, the whole matter could be easily remedied; and instead of the Postmaster being obligod to close the mail half an hour earlier, no doubt but that an additional extension of ten or fifteen minutes might bo gained. Having gleaned this information for the benefit of the commercial community, we would suggest that those in- | terested will do well to take the hint, and send to the Post Office all that they can om the day previous, and | on steamer morning as carly am possible.

A serious affray took place a night or twoago between two colored individuals named Willian Harden and Har- riet Chambers, both cooks, at Pool’s drinking saloon, in Broadway, in which the former received » severe stab with acarving knife at the hands of the latter. It ap- pears that a quarrei ensued between these parties rela. tive to some scandal which was alleged to have been elroulated by Harriet to the disgrace and discomfiture | ambers with the same, of Harden, who, charging Miss C received in reply a regular outburst of female indigaa: tion, This enraged Harden, who struck his fair oppo neat in the face, and she being enraged still more at the audacity of Mr Harden, ina great passion snatched up @ carving knife and plunged it in the lower part of | her assailant's abdomen, She has not since been heard of. The wounded man’ was conveyed to the New York Hospital in great suileriag, where lie now lies in a crisical situation.

The man Joseph Hall, confined in the hospital on Blackwell's Island for the homicide of William O’Brien, on New Year's night last, is recovering but slowly from the effects of the injuries he inflicted on himself on the night in question, Dr. Sanglin, who has been attend- ing him, has written to Coroner Hilton, stating that it | would be very imprudent to examine the prisoner, on the charge preferred againat him, ax he was ina very critical situation. ‘The death of O'Briva seems to have a | ereat effect upon the mind of Hall, and it no doubt will Additional interest will be added to the meeting of the convention this year, by the fact that Brigadier General | Scroggs, the Know Nothing candidate for Lieutenant Governor, will be present, and deliver the annual ad | dress, ‘These conventions are held yearly, and were ori- | ginally instituted to promote good feeling among the different companies throughout the State, and to devise means to add to their efficiency: General Spicer has charge of the arrangements for the convention this year, and it is expected that the atten- dance will be quite full, Measures are being taken by our city military to entertain their guesis in an appro priate wanuer. | Sermons on Romantam, The American and Foreign Christian Union have made arrangements for a course of sermons or lectures on Romaniam, to be delivered in various Protestant churches in this city during the present winter. Dr. Plummer commenced this series on Sunday evening, the Olst ult., in the Dutch Reformed Church, Lafayetto place, The second sermon of the course under the patronage of the American and Foreign Christian Union, was delivered last evening in the Presbyterian church on Madison square, by the Rev, Dr. William Adams, of this city. The attendance was very large. The folowing is an outline of the reverend gentleman's sermon — The text was taken from 2 Peter, chap. 3, verse 3. ‘But Veloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as thousand years, and « thousand years as one day.’ Dre Adams commenced by alluding to the providence of the Almighty over nations, and hia plans for their future existence. Jofinite in His nature and eternal in His duration, God's plan la for the whole of time, snd hence it ix, that many things are incomprehensible to us, for they are part of an unfinished whole. The plan of God in reference to a nation may extend over thousands of years, and it would Le folly in ux to form conclusions from the events of brief period. This principle is are hy ome d to the Roman empire. The ty of Kome was founded before the old Assyrian empire had reached its climax. it was a large city long before Cyrus sacked the city of Babylon, Its popalatton had reached a half a million before Alexander had subjugated the t. It was the ruling dynasty when Jesus Christ was born. In its sub sequent history the line of Pontiffs is far more ancient than the longest line of kings, and at this moment there is no question of more interest to the civilize! world than the probable destiny of she power which sits en- throned in the Eternal City. On this evening it was the object of the speaker to treat of the transition of Rome imperil and Pagan into Rome He pictured the vision of her imperial power, he lization, her arms, | her arts, and her eloquence. Her kings, her consorts, her emperors, pa ‘ore us in magnificent array. ‘This was Roman But the tiara has supplanted the imperial crown. Now, we hear the anathemas from the Vatican, and see the insignia of Rome Papal. Twice has Rome been called the mistress of the world—onco from the prowess of her arms, and once from her ecclesiastical dominion. ¢ ig the impressions of his (the preacher’#) mind on the occasion of his virit to the renowned city, he spoke of the fulfilment of the pro: phecies of Daniel in relation to Rome. All kingdoms of the world were gradually subjugated, until the whole world was conquered. Everything in’ those days tend to centralization, for cities were empires, and every- thing contributed to beautify and strengthen municipal communities. Thus Rome became the centre ofall. (f that period of her greatness a few majestic ruins still re- tain. Two of these possess especial interest to a Chris tian traveller—the Collixeum, the spot whore many o dis- ciple of Christ bas shed his blood; and the Arch of Titus, which is one of the unbribed evidences of the truth of Seriptare, for on one of its sides, in bay reliefs, are representations of those identical implements used in the Jewish worship, as described in the Book of Levi ticus, The speaker then described the rise and progress of Christionity—its establishment in the Roman capita! and tho trials and persecutions through which the early Christians were obliged to The fourth century arrived, when Christianity braced and the Emperor took the name of Clirist.an So long as the Church wan persecuted its ministers were only distingnished for their patience and humility, but afterwards they took their places next to imperial dig- nity. ‘The clergy began to separate themselves fro: people, and when the forces of the empire became the prominent men among the clergy succeeded to power, At length the empire broke in twain, and the strife for the succession began. The question was tl arked, why should not Rome retain eecleastical had obtained temporal supremacy! A feeling generally prevailed throughout the world that Rome ought vo be. and still was, the mistress of the world.

The aker then glanced at the ceremonials of the Roman Church, and quoted at length from several authors to show that in many of the forts of Papal worship there was & clore resemblance to those of the Pagany. He in stanced as ap authority for this Pope Gregory, who de clared that the early Christians introduced Pagan cu toms Into the forms of Christian worship.
