Cigned) WILLIAM WILSON, Chairman Committee of Arrangements. A frail |.oking platform was erected opposite the Bate of the Castle, in the same position which it oc- cupied on the evening of the first meeting. Here, from about 7'P, M. was stationed a band of music, formed jits share in collecting a crowd. avtraction there was a piece of cannon political puzzle box, to see how many dollars and cents he could draw out of it. They are now getting as much money as they can possibly squeeze out of the emigrants, levying head money on them, and imprisoning them till they can ship them off to the country. (A Voice—“What about the African slave trade?) They say their efforts are made to save the immigrant from the 25,000 ran- ners, highwaymen, who infest the city. They soon convert our churches into prisons, as they have taken the most sacred spot on the island and consecrated it to the meanest of uses. (Cheers.) We can no longer have the pleasure of our walk on the Battery as we used todo. We cannot have the Castie to resort to for an airy and delightful view. Some years ago, they cried out for an enlargement of the Battery, and now that the work is nearly finished, they tell us that it isof no uze, that the Bat- or stationed at the water's edge, from which discharges | tery is a disreputable place, &c.

There was no procession, as on the occusion of the first meeting, but flags and banners were hung and stationed on and around | the the platform. Many of those banners bore the same journals would change their ‘tone and not believe all that is told to them about these 20,000 canpiert runners.

I have been admonished not to come and address you; I baye been told that this wasa meeting of runners, baggege-smashers and thieves. I come here to advocate uo man who plun- @ers the emigrant, but to sustain wen engaged in a calling recognised by the law, and to preserve our beautiful Battery inviolate.

[f you place within Garden one or two railroad enterprises, to the bag an of others, would not their agents forward interest: of their employers at the expense of the emigrants? But these rinners are able to speak for themselyes, and Iwill only speak in favor of this beautitn! epot. Mr. Tomlinson then proceeded to eulogise the time-honored associations with which the place had been conne ted, and on retiring, was favored with Captain Juines N. Turner was nextintroduced and | eddressed the meeting. He suid he came here t- it with the express intention of giving utterance to i sentiments in regard to the in ity cast upon the citizens of New York, anti to join thei in a potest against thus taking the ple'a y and appropriating it to a use which will disease and death. But even were it not appro- ted to such use, he would have objected ty its ig taken from those uses to which the spot had hitherto been consecrated. t is high time now that we shoul! devote this sacred spot to the uses of a graveyar’. and the next step will be to convert .sinto itals.

In conclusion, he deprecated the idea of his being supposed to have a motive to injure the emigrant; but when he saw men put on thelivery of heaven to serve the devii in, he would raise his voice against it. ‘The next speaker was Capt. Wi. Young, of the Mexiczn Volunteers, He said they had met here to ress their indignation against the foul demoa who had taken possession of the most glorious spot on the face of the earth. (Hurra.)

COLORED CYPRIANS IN TROUBLE. Ata late hour on Sunday night Lieutenant Mar ~ tin, of the Fifth ward police, aided by a platoon of men under bis command, made a descent upon the colored folks of the house No. 9 Thomas etreet, and arrested all the inmates—the males as being disor- derly persons, and the females as prostitutes. In the rear premises, occupied by an individual named Buffalo Bill, were found five white girls, while im the front house were assembled a large number of dusky females of very doubtful reputation. All the prisoners, including the proprietors of the premi- ses, were brought before Justice Connolly, at the Lower Police Court, where they were committed to prison for examination, The Tombs, as is usual on such occasions, was crowded with a rapacious set of lawyers, whose disgraceful acts inthe pursuit of their profession have earned for themselves the ap propriate appellation of “skinners.’” SUNDAY AMUSEMENT. Jobn Clifford and William Pattle were arrested on Senday by officer Gillen, of the Second ward police, charged with being engaged in a rough and tamble fight with themselves and others on pier No. 8, North river. Capt. Leonard, in his report to the Chief of Police yesterday, “Puttle and Clif- ford met by appointment at pier No. 8, North river, for the parpose of having a fight. Hore they cok lected a vast number of rowdies, and after fighting for about thirty minutes, withdrew from the battle round—DPattie’s friends being stronger than Clif- ford’s, the latter had to leave.” Capt. Leonard hear- ing of the occurrence, ordered jcer Gillen to ar- rest the accused, when they were taken before Jus- tice Connolly at the Lower Police Court. The magistrate held Putile to bail in the sum of $500 to keep the peace. Clifford was discharged on his promising to go to sea and sin no more. DANGEROUS SPORT. Francis Williams and Johu Winters, the former a wheelwright, and the latter a sailor, got into « fight with cach other on a float lying alougside of the wreck of the ship Joseph Walker, and concluded the entertainment by rolling overboard. In the water, the animosity of the individuals was not in the least abated, as cach tried hard to exhaust the other by the ducking process. Before, however, they had be- come exhausted, officer Conkley, of the Fourth ward, made his appearance, and fishing the conrbatants out of the water, brought them before Justice Con nolly, at the First District Police Court, on charge igorderly conduct. The magistrate, howeve?, findiug that no harm had been done, discharged the pod after giving them a wholesome lecture on e uncertainty of positions in life, and the neceasit of a more proper rvance of the Sabbath on their part. THE EXVECTS OF KEEPING BAD COMPANY. Three young men, named Peter Smith, John Bve- tard, and Charles Brown, were arrested yesterday by officer Miller, of the Sixteenth ward police, charged with having stolen $59 from Robert Smith, of 114 Seventh avenue. The first mentioned of these prisoners is the son of the complainant, and says he was induced to rob his parent at the argent solicitations of his companions. The money was taken from a trunk in the house of Mr. Smith, and hid away ina safe place by the trio. Young Smith becoming somewhat repentant, confessed the entire plot to bis father, and revealed the place where the treasure was concealed. Officer Miller succeeded in recovering the amount. The young scapegraces were committed for examination by Jastice David- son, of the Second District Police Conrt. The son of the complainant is only 11 years of age, but ia quite a preocious youth, and one that I require strict watching at the hands of his parents, CHARGE OF BURGLARY. Thomas Flannigan was taken into custody by officer Meyer, of the Fourteenth ward police, on a charge of burglary. The accused, it ia alleged, for- cibly entered the dwelling house of Mr.J. M. Perry, of 52 Spring street, and stole from the premises a valuable lot of clothing and a gold watch, The bur- glary was effected by breaking open a window in the rear of the house to which there was entrance by an alley way leading to the street. The prisoner was taken before Justice Brennan, at the Third Dis trict Police Court, where he was committed for fur- ther examination. ALLEGED FELONIOUS ASSAULT. John Driscole was arrested by officer Lord, of the Lower Police Court, charged with having, on 9th instant, feloniously assaulted Maurice Zoellner, of 5% Oak street, with a knife, inflicting severe injuries upon the head of the latter. The prisoner was brought before Justice Connolly, atthe First District Police Court, where he was committed for trial in default of $590 bail. Zoellner, although confined to his bed, ia not dangerously wounded, the injuries being confined altogether to his scalp. Interesting Hebrew Ctreular. TO THE EPITOR OF THE HERALD.
