Our Albany Correspondence. Aupany, Jan. 18, 1855, New York State Temperance Convention—A Military Balt —Governor Clark and Mr. Daniel Ullman Introduced —A Rich Scene—Mr. Ullman on the Military Organiza- tion of Foreigners. Several members of this ancient organization assem- bled in the Assembly chamber last evening. Two-thirds of the membere of the Legislature and a large body of citizens were also present. At seven o’clock, the society and meeting was called to order by Judge Miller, of Cort. yand county, who stated that the illness of the President, E. C. Delavan, prevented his attendaace, and that the chair would be occupied by R. N. Havens, of New York, one of the vice-presidents, which was accordingly dono, The President's annual address was very well read by John N. Wilder, Esq., of this city. Wm. H. Burleigh, editor of the Prohibitionist, read the report of the Exe” cutive Committee, nad also that of the Treasuier, Eras- tus Corning, Eeg., by which it appeared that the srcioty is in arrears the sum of $2,000. This deficiency is occasioned by the large expenditure incurred during the last season in employing traveling agents, lecturers, tract distributors, and in editing and printing electioneering papers, and endeavor- ing to elect Governor and House of Assembl; in favor o: the Maine Prohibitory Liquor law. It appears from “hese reports that nearly every election district in ti te, during the canvass, was well sup- lies. with rance agents and trast distributors, lore effort was made to carry the election by the tem- erance politicians than by eitaer the harda, softs, now Nothings, cr legitimate whigs. After the reading of these reports, a man, designated the Rev. Mr. Crampton, took his stand inside the speak- er’s desk. He is the tried and stated general and travelling agent of the society, and during the campaign, just previous to every election is always particularly active in giving temperance lec- tures for the benefit of the society and its am- bitious political demagogues, Having a» ‘* Reverend’! attached to his name, it gives him an introduction to, and prominence with, aclass of citizens who always feel particularly pleased’ with visits from white neck. cloths. This geutleman, with stentorian lungs, ha- rargued the meeting for one hour. From tbe glib inan- ner in which his discourse was delivered, it was evident- ly the same sterreotyped effusion which he has em- ployed during his late slecttonsering campaign. It is doubtless a portion of his annual duty to deliver at the meeting of the society the same speech he enlightens the people with, in order that the society may judge of his fitness and ability for future employment. Ho was succee: by Erastus D. Culver, now of Brook. lyn, who bouated of having been elected Judge upon pure temperance privciples. His speech occupied over anu Lour, interspersed with py from the New Testamcnt, Judge Taney aud Jack Downing, and fre- quently intsoduced inuocent sentences, such as he was wont to when he was formerly engaged in electioneering for the abolitionists. Both speakers addressed their re- maras to the members of the Legislatuce, bestowing the most fulsome Hlattery, which must have been disgusting to every high-minded member present. The meeting was ri for the purpose of strengthening the prohibitory bill, During the winter season the various military compa- nies set apart some convenient night fer the purpose of mingling in the merry dance. On such vccasiuns. the commencer in-chief, his military stall, the military com- mi‘tees 0! both houses, and otuer distinguished gentle- men are presented with complimentary tickets. Last evening the Continentals heid tbeir ball, and the usual invitations were extended At an sppropriate hour the guests asserabled in the receiving room aud were iatro- duced to each other by the captain, Among others, Daniel Ullman, Esq.,was introduced to his Excellency Gov- ernor Clark. The guests were excorted to the pall room of Van Vechten Hall, where the meiry ¢auce was progress- ing with the greatest pleasure and hilarity. At tho end of she cotillon the of ceremonies introduced the invited guests:—“Ladies and gentie; ow me to in- troduce to you his Excellency the Commaude:-in-Chief.”’ The ladich gently curteried, the gentlemen sii; bowed, and a very respectful and dubious mince prevailed through the assemblage. Then the Hon- crable Daniel U! mo wae announced. Instantly the waving of banduerchiefs by the ladies, the hurrahs, yeils, rejoicings, clapping of hands, stamping of feet by the gentiemen, were perfectly uproarious. The large hall almost shook from the eflects of the demonstration, whilst the walls reverberated with great effect the ea- thusiasm of the excited audience. Then a call was + loudly made for ‘* Ulnann,” “ Uliman.’”? The lady Con and the hesitation to comply induced them to increase Unentals, as well as the Caper wanted a speech, vy. the demand for it. Finally, fading that it was impos sible to restore order, or to resume danciog, Mr. Ullman was compelled to step towards the centre of the room. He thanked the audience, though he preferred t> remain a silent spectator. He made a few remarks, and, among other things, aaid he “hoped that the day was pot far distant when, not only in Massachusetts, but also in New York, and in every Stats of this Union, there +hatl not be a single military organization on the basis of @ foreign nationality.” ‘This remark elicited the most hearty and enthusiastic cheering; and at the conclusion of his short, neat apeech, such a demuastea- tion was made as never was before known on any occa- sion of the kind, Doring these evijences of favoritism manifested to- ‘wards Mr Ullman, bis Excellency the Governor remained unnoticed, standing in a lone corner of the room, his epaniotted staff scattered about, “looking rs’” to- wards each other in their neglected and over! con- dition. It is needless to add, that tne Commsnder-in- Chief, together with his staff, very soon thereafter re- tired trom the ball. Will this par‘iality for Mr. Uilmaa facilitate commissioning Continental officers during the present State ac ministration? The French Universal Exhibition. The following communication has been addressed to the editors of the principal papers of the United States: OFFICE OF THR CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THR COMMIS SIONERS OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE UNI- VERSAL EXHIBITION OF 1955. GxxTLEMEN—You are probably aware that the time for the anaig of the Universal Exhibition is drawing near, apd that reception of articles commenced about the middle of ary 1855.

M., at the foot of Stanton street, from the yard of Mr. A. C. Bell, by whom she ‘was built for Messrs. Lane, West & Co.’s line of Havre packets, to be commanded by Capt. J. G. W.,Trask. She is of large capacity for passengers, having three decks, and for convenience she is unsurpassed by any ship of the present dey, Her cabio is finished in the Gothic style, and she is furnished with every convenience that experience could suggest for the comfort and health of passengers. ‘Tax Srxamamr Roavore, Capt. Skinner, hence for Norfolk and Richmond 13th instant, returned from the latter port on account of one of her crew having been taken with the smallpox after having touched at Rich- mond. The Health Officer at Norfolk would not allow ‘the patient to be landed at that place, or any communi- cation with the shore, under a penalty of $5,000—this being the law—when the steamer sailed immediately for this port. She now lays at anchor off Jersey City. ‘Tax Banx Fucur.—We bave nothing further from this vensel, ashore at New Inlet, L. I. The strong northwest wind of last night and to-day will have the effest to make the sea very smooth, being off the land. Four lighters went down to her assistance last night, and the steam- tug Mercury has gone to-day. She will probably be got off by to-morrow, Brooklyn City Sews. ‘Tax FINANCES oF THE ConsoLipateD Crry.—The officials connected with the government of the consolidated city areinasad fix. There is no money to pay their sa- laries, The moneys appropriated under theold order of things is applicable to the old accounts only, and cannot, therefore, be touched for current expenses, No pro- visions having been made to keep the wheels of che new government oiled, those in office, and all those depend- ant upon the public tressury, find themselves in a disa- greeable fix, ard the only remedy is to obtain authority from the islature to negotiate a loan. This done, everything will bea turn up right. The Common Council will probably take the necessary measures at the next meeting. Burouarms—On Thursday atternoon the house of Mr. H. A. Carter, No. 107 Johnson street, was entered through the front door by means of false keys. Tho Indy of the house was temporarily absent at the the time, having been gone about an hour. When she returned she found that every trunk and closet, from garret to bascment, had been broken open and the contents attered about the floors. N wearing, parel had been taken, but all the jewelry an‘ could find was carried awa; cles were a set of mosaic pins, diamond ring and silver spoons, in all valued at over $100. A small writing desk in one of the upper rooms was unobserved by the depredatore, Its contents were of far more vale than the articles stolen. The night previous the house of Joun M. Martens, in Cumberland street, was feloniously en tered by forcing in the rear basement door. The house was rumaged from top to nottom, and so slyly that the occupants were uot disturbed. Among the property carried away was one hundred dollars ia gold, a lot of English coins, gold rings, silver ware, laces, ke., ia all valued at about $200, with which the burglars maaaged to get off clear. Several attempts at burglary were e in different parts of the city the sane night. They are becoming more frequent than ever. A Ficrimove Firu—A New Mopr to Raisx tHe Wisp. —Officer Raynor, aid to the Brcok!yn Chief of Police, arrested 8 young man, on Shursday afternoon last, on suspicion of being one of a gang eugaged in, swindling country merchants and others, by {alse repreeentations, ‘The accused is a young man, well dressed and about twenty-five years of age. H» called at the Post Oifice, where be was frst seen by the officer, and, represeuting himeelf to be a member of the firm of ‘Law, Grianell & Minot,” of South atseat Non York, inquired for some letters. The Postmaster handed him six, which he took, and, after paying the postage, left the office. The firm, it appears, is a fictitious one, and the system pnrsued by the gang, of which the accused is supposed to be a mem- ber, is to forward letters to merchants in different parts of the country, with the information that a box of goods bad arrived from California, per steamer, to their ad. dress, and that by forwarding $7 for freight, the goods would be sent as ted. Considerable sums of money are supposed to have been received by them in this way, and, numerous inquiries having been made by persous swindled, as to the existence of such a firm, the police were set upon the watch, which terminated in the arrest of this man. He was committed to the cells to await further developements. Kixos County Court or Sxsstons.—In this court, yes- terday, Jncod Orth, John Russell, Luke Otten, George ‘Warner, John Quino, James Hughes and Nicholas Boy sr, having pleaded guilty to selling liquor without license, were fined $10 each. In a!! these cases it was shown to the court that the defeadants had discontinued the traf- fic for some time past. In all those where the prac:ice is continued the penalty of the law will be strictly en- forced. Lawrence Cullen pleaded guilty to stealing a pair of boots at the fire near tte South ferry, and was sentenced to thirty days’ hard labor in the penitentiary. Edward Blacken, indicted under the anti-gambliag act for selling lottery policies to one I Hicks, and other reons, On the 7th December last, placed on trial. jhe defendant had kept a lottery policy office in Hadson avenue, and Isaac Hicks, the only witness called for the prosecution, was one of the class of persons which forms tbe greater portion of the patroas of these places—a colored man. The case being given tothe jury, the defendant was found guilty. Detendant’s counsel moved for, and obtained, a suspension of judgment, to enable him to make motion for arrest. Catharine Ferguson and Margoret wage were arraign- ed on two several indictments ror receiving stolea goods. it indictment, Mrs. Ferguson was coavicted juitted; upon the second, Mrs, Ryan wee oonviowel'and: Mrs, Ferguson acquitted. Sentence reserved, Mary Minnis, on conviction of grand larceny, was sentenced to the State prison for two years and three months. Watthew Hart and Robert Switherback pleaded gull to selling bs Sod without license—when the court ad- journed till Tuesday next. Among the missing arti- Personal Intelligence, The Washington Union sayw:—so far we have as- certained, no public or private despatches have been re- ceived in this city by the steamer Canada, ia regard to the health of Jobn Y. Meson, the American Minister at Paris. In the absence of all information, it is but rea- sonable to infer that a change for the better had taken place in the condition of Judge Mason since the sailing of the Baltic. ‘The Atlanta Intelligencer says that the health of Hon.
