296 AFFAIRS IN THE METROPOLIS. A PRIZE FIGHT PREVENTED. Philadelphia vs. New York—Arrest ofa Num. ber of Sporting Characters — Great Excite, ment Among the Fancy. Some montns ago prize fight match was made be- tween John Lees, of this city, and James McEntyre, of Kensington, Philadelphia. The bet, $300 aside, was small compared witn the vast interest the result of the Sight would create amoog the lovers of the fancy in New York and Philadelpha. Consequently the matter, for some time past—ever since it was on the (apis—bas been talked of day and night, both hereand in the City of Bro. therly Love. Both men were well known among their respective friends, and each party was sanguine of success. Lees, the New York man, about thirty years of age, had for his backers the Young America of this city.and Philadelpbia, wnile McEntyre, who is an older, man, being about forty-five years of age, was warmly upported by the old prize fignters, and the “ Killers’? «f Philadelphia particularly. All the necessary arrange- ments being made between the seconds of both men, yes- terday, Fobru.ry 5, was the dey named for the victory or defeat of either party. The spot agreed upon tor the pu- gilistic trial was Rikep’s Island, » small spot of grouad in the East rivglp near Flushing Bay, L.. I, Kverythiog was duly prepated for the ight—the men being in good training, aud the friends of each equally sanguine of the success of their champioa. The McIntyre party started from Philadelphia on Momday evening. On their way to this city in the cars, being, of course, highly elated, and very st'yog in numbers, their conduct in the train was wpything but creditable, Taking posses- sion of one of the curs, they sorely aunoyed the passen- gers by smoking, cursng and fighting, during the entire time occupied in getting to New York. Not satisied with inflicting these insults on the passengers, they also exposed them to the severity of the woather by opening the wirdows and doors of the cars. Remonstrance was eut of the question; the unruly crew were too powerful and impudent ‘or any peaceable arguments to have effect; so the anuvyanse had to be borne with. Arriving at Jersey City, the party crossed the ferry, and marched to the Covtin-atal Heuse in Houston street, where they were to leave the next morning in carriages, for a sloop lying at the fuot of that street, ready for the occasion. "Phe New York party were not idle that night. The greatest excitement prevailed among the friends of Lees; bets were made in h « favor, and all were in great glee atthe fun ahead A steamboat was chartered for the Occasion, and tickets were sold ata premium, The craft was to tart from the foot of Spriag street in the morn- ing, and everything was complete to render the occasion ® happy one, in their estimation, Yesterday morning, at an early houz, all the fihting men of the city were anxiously awaiting the hour when the party should eturt for the battle Meld. The Lees party assembled punctuslly at the hour egreed upon, at the foot of Spring street, but the ice being too thick around the slip for the approach of the steamboat, they were all compelled to walk to pier No. 1, where they quickly embarked for Riker’s Island, without, as they suppored, the knowledge of the police or the authorities in the city. The Mckntyre men were up by daybreak, and were juet about to take their departure in their carriages, when an untoward obstacle occurred, which prevented their departure, and spoiled-their anticipated fun, The Mayor, aud Obief of Police, Mr. Matsell, well knowing that the fight was to take place, were not idle in taking measures to effectually prevent the perpetration ef theiame. A strevg detachment of police was sta- tioned at those points where, from reliable information, it was learned the pugitistic crowd would embark for tho sceve of the fight (rders were despatched t) the Hleventh ward police to surround the Continental House, and capture the entire McEutyre party before they lefc the premives, yesterdny morning, and accordingly the police mace’ ther sppearance just in the nick of time. On arriving at the place ia question, thoy found a number of caxriages waiting outside, and already nearly all occupied. The oflicers very coolly proceeced to mabe all the arrests that prudence warranted. The carriages were searched, and in them found the ropes, stakes and other apparatus uisite “or a ring tight, Strict search was mace for tae pelacipal in the afair, bat he was aon est inventus, Paving cither got the alarm im sufficient time to make hhis escape, or elke he muat have sleyt iv some locality more convenient to Kiker’s Istand on the above night. Al. the pritovers were taken to the Eleventh ward station house, previous to being sent to the police court. ” Meanwhile the police cetailed for the purpose of cap- turing Lees and his frienas were quite busy. Sergeant Ford kept a strict watch upon the movements of Lees, Aad succeeded in arre tng him at the Walker House. For the purpose of avoiding any rescue on the part of bis friends, a detochieent of police was stationed within the call of efficee Ford; but their services were not re- quired, as no resi-tauce to the arrest was made The pri- soner was tuhen 10 tie Clist's office previous to being conveyed before the Mayor, Yesterday forenoon Lees was brought before Mayor Wood, who committed him to prison in default of $2,000 A detachment of men was also despatched to Riker’s Island, under the command of Sergeant Wade, of the reserve corps; but as those who started in tho’ steum- boat Lad probably got the alarm, none of the partios had been arreste. up te a late hour last evening. In relation to the manner in which the Eleventh ward police succeeded successful'y in capturing the MeKatyro party, Capt. Squires makes the following report to the Chiet of Volice “Information being received last night that one of the contestants in the prize fight that was to come off to-day, would arrive at a cei tuin public bouse in this ward dur: ing the night or morn ng, with a party of his friends, the Mayor aud Chie! of | ive were consulted and arrange- y emergency, Accordingly, (uring the night, on the ou x Houston, preparatory to star " p being in readiness at the foot Houston street, to receive them. They weze promptly arrested, and the roper, ste! and other paraphernalia of the ring, which were found aboard of one carriage, taken possession of, und are now at the station house. “The names of the parties arrested are John Geindall, ‘Thomas Jones, Wm. Doyle, Thomas Haynes, Charles Wil- son, Chartes Morris, William Roy, Chas. Marshall, Thos. M, Ticrnay, and John Miukles, mort of whom are Phil delphians. teeny the Fal in the alfa were not found, audit is doubtful whosaer either of them in this ward atall; audit is probable that the ea- tortainments cf tioday will be seriously interrupted, Meanwhile, the perties are informed that we shall per- he the duty of ‘‘stakeholders’’ to the best of our ability,” thet opt wanner ip which the long looked for prize lt was frurtrated through the energy and firmness of @ authorities, created a great excitement among the numerous circles of fighting men, gamblers and loafers, that infest our city. A regular stampede was m: for the Essex Market poli court, where the Philadelphians were in durance vile, and the greatest uxiety wan manifested as to the resuit of p nation helt here before Justice Wood. It was the greatest difficulty that the police could mainte’n order, 90 great was the number of excited rowdies that had collected around the court house, At length, after due examination, it was found by Jus- tice Weod expedient to discarge all the prisoners, as no sufficient progfs could be obtained agsinst them to war- rant his holding them to keep tho peace, and asccording- ly ho was comyelled to discharge tho prisoners from cus- tody, much to the joy of the excited rabble inside and outside the court room, who manifested their pleasare at his decis:on by shouts of applause. The manner in which these pugilistic gentlemon were we hors de comlat, threugh the promptaess of the jayor, Chief of Polce, and the men under their com mand, i+ highly creditable, and will no doubt be appre- ciated by the public, This city and vicinity, which has ng, at 8 o'clock, of too beep disgrace’ by rowdyism and prize fights, would, but for the promptitude of the auvhorities, have been yesterday the scene of a most brutal and dis- graceful prize ight, Anti-Slavery Lecture at the Tabernacle, by Ralph Waido Emerson. HIS PLAN FORTHE EMANCIPATION OF THE SLAVES— THE ELECTION OF SEWARD, Mr. Ralph Waldo Emerson delivered one of the lectures of the course at the inbernacle last evening, before the Anti-Slavery Society. The buil ting about half filled, the audience consisting of the same class of persons who generally attend those lecturer. ‘The President, Mr. Oliver Johnson, in introducing tho lecturer, remarked that the blast which they had to- night satisfied them that there is such a thing as a geo- graphical North; bat there was another, which should also convince them that there iss political North, after all, I think, therefore, added Mr. J, that we are all ia humor, ready to hear what our friend from Massa chusetts has to offer. (Laughter and applause.) Mr, Exmnson now came forward; and after the ap- plause with which he was reecived had subs ded, he proceeded to deliver his discourse on the evil effects of slavery upon the moral and intellectual condition of so- ciety. He drew a terrible picture of its influence upon the youth of the couutry, whose aspirations for every thing that was good or great were made subservient to ite power, The President, the Senator, the Congross- man, the Judge—al! were subject to its sway; but still he believed that as truth was more powerful thaa false- would eventually eradicated, Po- me cegraced through its inetruum Oty sec'er, seid he, will no longer h it; it Is fast becoming, it has now aiready become, discredit- able work, There bave gone from our more Northern rection of the country to Congress honest, well meaning mea. I heard cougratulatio continved, from yous men when they went to Wasniag- ton, that they at leas’. vere obstiantely honest, yet they voted upon thore criminal measures with the bacest of the popslece. They only represented tho property of their constituency. (Applause) The lecturor war lariy severe upon the Fugitive Slave law. Io the y. * Metehation of 1780, eal he, thes tor a timnmpe rm tue, wiaests, ‘carvied ber rotund the city ina td: i NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1855, by a procession, and worshi, heras the Godiess of Keason. In 1860, in repabil America, we passed statute which made natite aud mercy subject to fine id imprisonment, and multitudes lared that there ‘isted no higher law in the universe than our constitu- tion and this paper statute. Here au individual who hed been evidently labori under considerable excitement during the lecture, stoe: up in front of the audience, to the right of the speaker, and taking off his hat, cried, ‘‘three ra for Governor Seward’s election,”” The audience were taken by surprise; a few oxhibited pond. but as the majority remained silent, enthusiastic individual slapped his bat upon his head, looked indignant, muttered somethiag not Bee: flattering to the meeting, and stalked out of the building with the most unfeigned disgust When silence was restored, Mr. Emerson contiaued his phillipic against slavery, coucluding as follows:—It is delicious to act with great masses to it aims—for ia- stance, the summary or gradual abdlition of slavery. Why, in the very name of reason and the peace of min- NEA is nct this made the subject of instant nygotistion and settlement? Is it possible to speak of it with reason and good nature, becuuse it is property? | Why, then, {t has a price, Pe tause it is political? Well, it intimately concesps us, threatens us, and there will never be a bet- er time than the present time, That 15 really a great task, fit for this country to accomplish—to buy this property of the planters, as the British nation bought he West India slaves, I say buy, never conceding the right of the planter to own, but acknowledging tae ca- amity of his position, and willing to bear a country- man’s ybare in elieving kim; and because it is the only practicable course. and is innocent. Wealth here is only a right eocial of public function, 1f one msn cannot do, why all men most do We shall one day bring the Staves boulder to shoulder; and citizens, man to man, to ex- ermivate slavery. It used to be said it will cost a thoa- and, then twelve hundred, and it is now said it will ost two thousand millions of dollars. Well there ever apy contrioution so enthusiastically paid as this will be?” We will have a chimney tax. We will give up our coaches, and wine and watches, The churches will melt their plate. “The Father of bis Country shall wait well pleased a little lovger for his monument. Frantiin shall wait for his; the Pilgrim Fathers for theirs; and the patient Columbus, who waited all his life for jus:ice, shall spend a larger share of his immor- tality siill, waiting for bis. We will call om those rich benctactors who foand hospitals, futur henwums, lyceurms, Astor libraries—we shall call on wealthy Dachelors and maidens to make the state their heir, as they were wont in Rome, ‘The mechanics will give; ‘the children will taye cent societies. (Laughter and ap- plause ) If really the thing could come to a aegotia- ion, and a price were named in good faith, 1 don’t think that sny price, founded ona suin that’ figures coulé tell, would be quite uomanageable I think ia bad times we must rely on these siwple traths, Mon are beginning to suspect that in spite of all chance and change, a Divine Providence does rule in the’world, and brings victory to the riget at last. Aad thus, by every ‘Dew creation to thore shameful statutes which blacken the code of this country, the opposition will never end, never relax, whilst the statutes exist As long as the rars grows—as long as there are summer or winter—as to as there are men, so long will the sevtiments con- denn them, We cannot educate men, or raise them to avy mental power, without discoveriag the wrong. We do not euiler by defeat. There is lovgevity in the cause of freedom. It can. well afford to waid, if God pleases, for ages. It is the order that chemistry, nature, the stars of heaven, the thoughts of the mind—all are to be the emancipaters of the slave. At tbe conclusion of Mr, Emerson’s lecture, Mr. Grerstey, in obedience to the repeated calls of the au. dience, came forward. He spoke as follows:—I am not & speaking machine, ladies and gentlemen. (Laughter Eesiden, there ix very little sympathy with the seati- ment that calls upon persons to speak out of season and out of piace, when they are not set down in the'bill. (Renewed laughter) To n'ght I can only take this cali as # reference to what jhad transpired at Alnany, (Ap- plause.) Tecan only say that I see in the result of to- day but a confirmation of what I had long hoped to seo— 8 common purpore throughout the North to bea little more rigid in the backbone. I co not expect 100 much lam growing old; but I see in the Senatorial election of Massachusette and Wisconsin the same parpons, though they are not on the same platform which New York has expressed to-day. If this were a mere impulse of New York, then it would be of no account; but if the States oll around us say, ‘whether we be called whig, orsome- thing, or nothing, our representatives shall be true to Lumen freedom,” why, then, that is something to be rejviced’ at. (Applause) I think what today has been done at Albany—a resi obtatsed against a great deal of under mining—ia something at which we may well feel grati- tied, for it ix the expression of a sentiment which will not Le controlled, which will not be managed, and which will not be submerged by any pressure or agitation which may Le employed against us, (Applause.) When dir. Greeley concluded, the audience dispersed, after giving three cheers for the election of Seward as United States Senator, ‘The President, Mr. Jomxsox, stated that Mr. Banks, of Massachusetts, bad written to inform them that his business at Washington would prevent him from deliver- ing the next lecture according to his engagement, New York Historical Soctety. ‘This Society held its usual monthly meeting last even- ing, at its rooms in the University, the Hon. Luther Bradish, President, in the chair. There was a fall at- tendance of members. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved, Among several donations re- ported by the Librazian was one from the State of Pean- sylvania, being the history and archives of that State from its foundation, in 26 volumes. The Trustees of the Building Fund reported and submitted plans for the nspection of the Society. The report was re committed, with instructions to the committee to go on with the building. ‘The paper of the evening wes then read by the Hon, Wa. Beacu Lawkence, of Rhode Island, on the diploma- tie career of the author of ‘The Elements of Interna- tional Law,” (Henry Wheaton.) The followingisa brief synopsis of the speaker's remarks: — Henry Wheaton was liberally educated. He graduated at Brown University in 1802, and went to Europe in 1805, where be continued his legal studies and perfected himeelf in the French language. After visiting Paris he went to London, where he remained six months and studied the constitutional system of the mothercountry. The relation of his own country at that time to the great European nations, then at war, were eminently qualified to tarn Mr, Wheaton’s attention to that branch of the profession on which his fame reposes. From 1806 to 1813, Mr Wheaton remained at home. About 1512 he took charge of a newspaper called the National Advocate, which strongly supported republican priaci- plea, and’ was conducted with the pen of a gentleman andascholar. The war going oa between the Unitei States and Great Britain offered a wide scope for his abilities, and not omly to American but to European aflairs, were the columns of the Advocace opened. In May, 1815, Mr. W. leit the National Advocate and was elected a Judge of the Marine Court. While occupying that position he published the first systematic treatise on maritime captares. From 1816 to 1827 he reporter to the Supreme Court of the United States whch capacity he was uorivalled. The vulue of his noter, as well as his extended reporta, may be conceived from the high eulogiums that have been passed upon them by our most distinguished jurists—Judge Story among the number, In 1625, Mr. W. was associated with Messrs, Butler and Duer to revise the statute laws ot the State, but was called away before the work was completed. Mr. W. was a man of great literary ability as well as of 1 knowl He belonged to numerous literary societies, and in 1820 read the an- mual address before the historical society. Of this course, John Adams, Jefferson, and other distinguishod men have spoken in’ tho highest terms, The last labor in which be was engaged in his own country, was the life of William Pinckney, In July, 1827, Mr. Whea- ten sailed for London, having been appointed charge d’alisires to Denmark. He arrived in Copenba- en in September, as the first regular minister from the ‘nited States. Through the North American Review, he wrote, during his stay in Denmark, on the History, Poetry, and Mythology of the Scandinavian races. ‘He also wrote on the Public Law of Denmark. His History of fcandinavie was published in 1838, and as late as 1844 there appeared an article by bim in a French Review on Iceland. Mr. Lawrence concluded his sketch, by at- ludfng to the valuable aid of Mr. Wheaton, in contend. ing for the position taken by this country in relationto the rights of neutrals; also to his writings on the Sound duties, a topic which has lately excited some interest, and other subjects. On motion of Mr. Romaine, seconded by Mr. Benjamin F. Butler, a voto of thanks was then unanimously given to Mr. Lawrence for his very able and interesting paper on the life of Henry Wheaton. The society afterwards adjoursed. Interesting Meeting of the Ten Governors. YUP DIFFICULTY WITH THE COMMISSIONERS OF EMI- GRATION—THS LUNATIC ASYLUM—SHOULD THE PAUPERS HAVE A RESIDENT CHAPLAIN? A meeting of the Board of Ten Governors was held yesterday, Governor Townsend in tho chair. Present— Governors Draper, Henry, West, Smith, Tiemann, Tay- lor, Duke and Dugro. Every member was present except Governor Herrick, who has been absent almost every meeting of the Board since the last election, when he was defeated for the office of Mayor. The usual requisi- tions were then read. CROWDED STATE OF THE LUNATIO ASYLUM, ‘The following was read from the resident physician of the Lunatic Anylum:— ‘To THE GOVERNORS OF THR ALws Hoven:— GxNTLEMEN—A serions casualty occurred et the Asy- lum lately, which may terminate in the death of a pa- tient. It was the result of having two patients occupy the same room—this being unavoidably negossary, a there are at present two hundred more pat'ents then there are rooms to accommodate them. Last year about one-third of ali the patients admitted came from the other institutions, and during the = week nine have been admitted from thiasource. If these tients were insane before having been rent to the sland, ® cod mistake was made by the ptysicians under whose eupervis om they came, in not directly commit. ting them to this place. If they became insane while at the Inland, there certainly must be some serious fault in the ofpgenizatiog or management of institutions so produetive of ineanity. Jn my opinion, however, many of them are not fit subjects faralonatic acylum, but are property ‘ footi#h,”’ there having been a defective uteLect from birth.

Governos Drarer moved that a committee of three be a ited to inquire into and report on the subject matter of tne resolutions, Mr. Draper was op- posed to any arbitration but a 1 one. That alone was binding. When the Governors before submitted the questions involved to arbitration, the Commissioners did not act fair, tuey shuffled and doaged, and would not meet the issue fairly, The proceedings of the boly re- ferred to, he regretted to sny, had not characterized by an open and honest spirit When the Governors ceme into power they found the grievance now in dis- pute existing between Moses G.

These latter gentlemen bad acted unfairly through- out in refusing to pay ‘or those who were certainly chi ble tothem by the provisions of the law, ‘here was 000 in bank, under the control of the Commis- sioners, with which they should pay their honest deots. There are oom now begging in tue streets, who would be comfortable if justice was done. Persons who now got relief trom the Governors, were properly chargeable to the Commisrioners, Governor per thought that justice to the city, whose interests the Board re- presented, demanded in them proper vigilance to ree that right waa done. The Ten Governors were not tea chil- dren, to be amused with tais proposition of arbitration until they found themselves again denvived. Goy.

Draper referred to the tollow- ing Act which was introduced into the Assembiy by Mr. Blatebford:— An Act toezplain and amend “ An Act concerni sengers in vessels coming to the city of New passed May 5, 1847.

The resolution of Gov. Taylor, discontinuing the ap- pomtment uf chaplains hereafter on Blackwell's Island, was called up for final action Governor Duke wasin favor of the resolution. Thero were plenty of volunteers who would be willing to preach to the convicts, without'money an¢,withoat price; and he thought the religious state of the paupers would be well cared for by the volunteer preachers who would attend, Gov. Tay1oR Said there were mauy young preachers who would be glad of an opporiuaity of exercising their calling among the convicts. The chaplains employed at present cole ont enough of religion on Suadays to last brough the week, like druggists dispensing medicines. The Board might save 91,200 Just as well as not, Governor West said ‘cam’? was not so well posted up on this subject as he might ie. He did not deem it be- coming for any member of the Beard to indulge in witti cisms On @ subject £0 Racred as religion, There was a Opulation of tive thoussnd persons to be cared for on lack well’s Island, and they should not be left to such stray preachers as might come along occasivoally. Governor Duxe knew of several ministers wao would be glad to minister to the afflicted unpaid, aad he thought it'would be well to try how the plaa would work, for six months at least. By ‘employing ths clergymen of only two denominations It would create a feeling of jealousy in all the others, All worship should be free. Governor TowNsEND hoped action would not be taken on the question too hastily, Kvery day some one died on the inland, and a resident clergyman was necessary to m nister to their wants. Governor i RAPER said, though lawyers were a neces. sary evil, clergymen wire & universal good. He also strongly opposed the resolution; the poor should have the contoiations of religion He had yet ta tind the fist man out of the Board who favored the policy of Going this thing, ‘The only objection was in the pecaliat character of the religion taught, but that was noone of his (Mr. Dreper’s) business. He kuew that it was not alove a religious consolation that was m'nistered to the paupers and convicts , the priests often bore to their friends messages and tokens of affection from the death- | bed of these poor peopie, Governor TaYLok disclaimed any bigotry as actuating his efforts, Ho simply wished the experiment to be Governor Sara was opposed to the motion, He was willing to recognize the religious faith of any class of perrons, and respect it, whether they be Protestants or Cotholics or “ Hindoos.” ‘The priests were of great sar- vice in maintaining discipline among the inmates of the institutions. ‘as then taken, and the motion lost by the te ylor, Duke, Noes—Towneend, Smith, West, Henry, Tieman, Dugro and Draper.
