The Arrested Partics brought Before the Mayor—Interview of Mr. Brisbane with ‘His Honor—Scenes, Incidents, &c. The ‘Free Lovers,” who had been arrested the night previous for participating in the disturbance which oc- curred at the headquarters of the association, 555 Broad- way, early yesterday morning surprised the busy officials who daily congregate at the Mayor's office, with « visit. The party, under the custody of Capt. Turnbull and his Officers, was preceded by Mr. Brisbane, who had taken Buch @ conspicuous part in the row, besides Mr. Harland, the treasurer, the two Andersons, and some forty or fifty others, either friends of the arrested or idle spectators, who are always on band on such occasions. The Mayor had not yet arrived, neither had Justice Osborne, so that the honor of receiving the party devolved upon Col. Ming, who acted with his usual mildness an@ urbanity. Arising from his chair, he immediately proceeded to wel- come them, and motioned them to be seated until the arrivalof his Honor. Mr. Brisbane and the others were very loud in their denunciation of the officers and autho- rities who had subjected them to what they termed ‘‘such shameful treatment,’ and it tas only by dint of the greatest activity and firmness that officers Wines and Kinney could maintain anything like order, or prevent the crowd from breaking into the Mayor’s private room. ‘The sympathy of the spectators for the most part went with the “Free Lovers,” and groups might be noticed n every direction dixcussing the right of the officers to act as they did. Some thought Captain Turnbull and Kissner were ‘wrong; @ few said that the esiablishment in Broadway was nothing but a common brothel, and that the mem- bers were a set of scoundrels aud prostitutes, and that euch establishments should be broken up. The talk was noisy and quarrelsome, and might have terminated in a regular “‘fisticuff encounter” between some of the dis- mutants, had not a rumor spread that the Mayor had at Fengsh arrived, ‘This produced a calm instantly, and one looked towurds the closed doors of the room from which it was thought bi. Honor would issue. The suspense was great for amomeut, but was soon broken by the round of a bell, which brought officer Wines to @ doors of the room, ‘whic! he opened and entered. A moment more, he again appeared aud whispered some- thing to Col. Ming, who stood up and announced to Mr. Mr, Brisbane that the Mayor wished to speak with him. Mr. Brisbane foliowed the Colonel, us also did Captain Turnbull and the reporte.., to the presence of Mayor ‘Wood, who receivea the m iu « polite and quiet manuer, requesting them to be seated. Maycn, to Mr. Brisbane—You have been arrested, sir, onachatge of having made speech last night at the “free-lovers” establishment, in which you made use of very improper language, and spoke of the “ association’ im ‘conrection with other bouses of immoral character in Mercer and other streets of the kind in this city. It is my impression, sir, that (he w'wle concern Is culcula- ted to mislead the young, and to lexd to gross {mproprie- thea, if allowed to continue in operation. Such things cannot be too strongly dep vca'ed; and it is my inten- tion to use all lawful means for their suppression. Mr. B., in a very graye manier—1 went to the house of the brothe: hood, No, 555 Broudway, a! the request of my triend, Mr. Andrews, wio,ir sulferiag much from hemorr- bage of the lungs. I went, as 1 said betore, simply ut his desire, for the purpore (f secping inings straight for that night; I never was there but on two previous occa- sions, and my idea in addressing the people was to pre- vent any disturbance. Mayor, uvmoved byfithis e: of the largest Uberty of Ay lanatioon—I am in favor ch ard of the press, with which I would not in’ertere, nor attempt to restrict ia any way; yet at the sume tiwe there are things which ‘come rpecially under my jurisdiction, and this I con- sider ax one of them. 1 regird these things as most mischievous in their tendencies, established for improper Purpores, and, though I cannot hope to eradicate vice entirely, I intend to shut it ont, at least, from public advertisement. (Here his honor’ intimated, in « very lain manner, that if persons would act in an unbecom- ing and ridiculous manner—if persohs would cut up such antics, they must do it in a private way, and not exhibit their scandulous doings t« the public eye. (Mr. Bris- ‘dane looks blank). Oi course, continued ‘the Mayor, it is imporsible in cities ie New York, Paris, Loudon, &e., to put a stop to ruch vices; but my desire tx to contine it within as narrow a sphere as posable. 11 is wrong—(look- ing very hard at Mr, B., wivo bears the penetrating gaze of lonor without winciog,)—ii is wrong for a man of our intelligence and ability to countenance things of the |. However, sir, in this case I shall discharge you on your own recegnizances, relying upon your honor to re- appear at the time of your examinaiion, ir. B. here executed one of his most graceful bows, and raid, with an air of the most heart(elt gratitude, thank you, sir; and,” continued he, (with another bow, surpassing in grace even the firsi,)'" permit me to add that you are the only gentleman (a tremendous em- on the last word) Ihave had the pleasure to meet with in the whole of this tran-uction.

My friend, Mz, Andrews, I may say here, in jus tice to that man, is one of the first intellects in the country; but if ho— (waxing warm again)—if he had been thrown into a ceil; if he had suffered the ignominy I was compelled to bear last evening, he would not have survived it three months in his present state of health. Good morning. Mayor Woor—Good morning, cir, And Mr. Bris bane quitted the Mayor’s sanctum in company with Captain Turnbull “ard the — reporters, | who had entered to see the sport. Having pom out into the ante-chamber, which was stil! densely crowded with anxious tors, besides the other arrested parties and thelr friends, who were dying to learn the result of Brisbane’s interview with his Honor, Mr. Brisbane strutted up to Capt. Turnbull, who bac just commenced ‘@ conversation with one of the Mayor’s clerks, and, with # trium) it air and scornful look, said to the Captain: — “Well, sir, the Mayor has discharged me, like a gentle- as he knows me to be, sir,” Captain Turnbull—Very well, If the Mayor has dis- charged you, I, ofcourse, can have nothing to say. I have done nothing but what I considered my duty, Mr. B. (exasperated by the Captain’s coolness)—You had no right to arrest us, sir. I'll let you know that ou sban’t arrest American citizens fer nothing. (This last sentence was uttercd in a voice which was distinctly heard by all present. It did not to have as power- fal an. ua the speaker anticipated, so be repeated it again in such aloud and nvisy tone that Sergeant Kin- , of the Mayor's ofiice, approached him and politely rmed him that such loud talking would not be tolera- ted in the room, and that if he didnot actin a more moderate mapnor he would be under the disagreeable ne- oaswity of showing him—Mr. B.--the door, The object % thispiece of politeness replied not to the urbane official, Sut turning round to Captain Turnbull, and as suming an atiltude which can only be likened to that ‘of the ghost of ‘Cmsar when it accosts the gloomy Brutus in bis tent, said, in almost the same words as we are told that illustrious goblin used on that_ memorable occasion, “recollect, we ‘shall meet again at Phillippl.” Mr. Bris: ‘bane, however, was not so explicit as Cresar’s ghost, as he did not mention the place at which the meeting was to take plac. This was sil Brother Brisbane said, and with it fis bottle of indignation seemed to be exhaust- ved, for, after darting one more defiant apd scornful glance at Capt. Turnbull, and drawing himseif up to his full height, fo a most ridiculous manner, he put one leg before “the other and marched out of the Mayor's office, closely followed by the three others who had been arrested, and their numerous friends. ‘Thus onded the first visit of the ‘ Free Toves”’ to the or’s office, .. Harland and the two, Andersons were held to bailin the sum of $300 each. The examination of Mr. Brisbane, Mr. Harland and the two Andersons takes place this morning at 10 o'clock, before Justice Osborne. “Cay rnbull also made the following sworn statement of the occurence on Thurstay evening before the Mayor, andan affidavit em! the facts before Justice Os- borne.

STATEMENT OF MR. ALBERT BRISBANE. ‘TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. It is very rarely that I reply to attacks; but the dis- graceful and brutal assault committed upon me on Thurs- day evening, and the garbled statements of the press, merit this time a passing notice. The foundr of which bas caused so much talk ai | is 8S, P. Andrews, Esq., a gen!leman of a superior mould and an old and esteemed friend. I called upon him on Thursday evening, and found him very ill with hemorrhage of the lungs. He requested’ me very parti- cularly to go to the club and state that he was seriously indisposed—for he thought people might imagine hestay- ed away from fear. He requested me also to state briefly the objects which he had in view in organizing the club. Although I dislike very much addres-ing promiscuous audiences, with whom there is no unity of opinion, I went and explained briefly those objects. ‘The first was to open a place for social meetings of the people, and for their smusement and instruction. . They cannot find these at home, being too poor to invitg, and not fashionable enough to be invited. ‘The second was to unite a band of reformers, who re- sop what Mr. Andrews cells the sovereignty of the individual, that is to say, who place the sentiment of individual conscience, intellectual liberty and self-reliance above the §prescriptions of social and’ political institu- tions, I added a few remarks on the existing state of moral matters in our midst. I then left the di and went to the rear part of the room, where there were rome crowding and noise. I accosted one of the captains of polite—a Br. Turnbull, it appears—and asked him whether he could not induce the people to leave quietly, as Mr. Andrews was not present to attend to the mect- ing. He immediately seized me in a brutal manner, seek- ing evidently a chance to show his zeal, forced medowa stairs, and conducted me to the Kighth ward station house. On appearing before the Mayor, he questioned Mr. Turnbull as to what offence 1 had committed, He sn- awered that I had made remarks which had, in his opinion, an immoral tendency. Now it appears that acitizen of this commonwealth can be seized by the lise, and dragged to a loathsome station house, and carcerated all night, because one of the members of said police considers that he made remarks which did not accord with his views of morality! I shall test in our courts of justice whether such brutality, violence, and a desecration of individual rights are legal. To sum up, I went to the club and made a statement of its objects, to oblige a sick friend. In my opinion, the great reforms to be effected in society relate to political economy—that is, to credit, the currency. commerse and banking. We must strike down the privileges of capital, and clevate laber. I feel a sympathy for all reforms, and particularly those proposed by Mr, Andrews; but they do not, it scems to me, break up the basis of social injustice ns @ radical reform in the relations of labor and capital only can do this.—Yours truly, in haste, ‘A. BRISBANE. SOMETHING FROM THE ‘FREE LOVE” SIDE OF THE HOUSE. 70 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. New York, October 17, 1855, Tam reaty to prove that very neatly all that appeared in your paper of Wednesday last, in relation to our Free- love Asscciation, is false, and must have been written by a “ninth part ofa man.” The club was formed for ail parties to pass a pleasant and ogreeable evening, and nothing more. As for the squeezing of hands and the passing of arms around the waists of the ladies, there is nothing of the kind. The meetings are attended by some of our most wealthy and respectable citizens, whose names I might mention if I were so disposed, but I will not give the satisfaction of any person’s Knowing. |The company pars evening with dancing (the principal amu:emient), singing, chess playing, card playing, social conversation, &€., and perhaps once or twice through the evening, some one gentleman will eniertain us with an agreeable and amusing story. which calls forth the langh- ing qualities of all present.’ Every stranger has to be in- troduced by a member, who vouches for his respectabl- lity. He gives his name, his residence, and his word that he will cause no disturbance, gives the doorkeeper one shilling and walks in to lovk’ on or to participate in the evening's enjoyment. Now, what is there in all that to make such a time about? 1 think the person that wrote that auticle in your paper bad but little to employ his ime. ‘We are going to have a house built expressly for us. We are going to enlarge the number of members, to double—yes, treble, what it is now. ‘We are going nhead in spite of anybody and everybody, and let those stop us who can. We defy them.

Yours, &e., ‘A MEMBER. The Mexican Boundary Commission. (From the San Antonio Texan, Sept 25.) It will be remembered that this commission left here just one year ago, to act with an agent from the Mexican governnient, to secomplish this important survey. It 98 now returned, haying completed in a very short time the whole line, from the Beginning to the end, with the exception of some topogray y on the western end of the line, and to accomplish which, a party under Lieutenant Michler, Asvistant Surveyor, was left behind. ‘What may be considered as very remarcable, through- out the whole campaign they had no serious accident or mishap, nor has an animal been lost. by depredations from the Indians. The work has been completed within the time allotted, and that, too, at far less expense than the amount appropriated by Congress, and considered absolutely necessary for such commission, Atter concluding the work in the neighborhood of Fl Paso, the Mexican Commissioner notified Mejor Emory of his inability to proceed until he received further assist- ixneo fieen, Ye government. Major Emory remonstrated with the Mexican Commissioner, and exhibited to him the fect that he bad made his organization in good faith as Commissioner of the United States, and was then at the expense of $600 yer day, and under the circum- stances, that it would be impossibls for him to celay; and that he, the Mexican Commissioner, must go on, or ive him authority to proceed in the work the same as if (the Mexican Commissioner) were mt. The last proposition was agreed to, and the American Commis- sioner proceeded with the line. @n reaching the meri- dian of Sante Craz, hearing of the arrest of the Mexi- can Commissioner, Major Emory immediately in- creased the strength of the surveying parties, and pro- ceeded with the work untilhe met the party working to meet him from the California ride. It was cond that the party on the California side would finish their work as soon 0: before the toy cane on the Texas side; but while encamped in valley of the Colorado, a freshet came and washed them out. They were there- fore retarded in their operations; and it was to complete the work thus left unfinished by them that the party was left behind. With this party was operating a strong and efficent party, under Capt. Jeméner, frst engineer of the Mexican Younlary nmission. Major ne fearing some an might be raised on account of absence of the Mexican Commissioner, a and ob- tained in writing the cordial concurrence of Capt. Jemé- nez, the first Cs iad of the Mexican Boundary Commis- sion, to everything that had been done. On returning to El Paso, Major Emory ascertained that enor Salazar, the Mexican Commissioner, had been re- leaved from arrest and exonerated fully from all the charges made against him, Many days were now paseed in El Paso by Senor Sala- zar, examining the astronomical calculations, results, surveys, &e., of the line made by the Commis: sioner, and the conferenee was concinded by the Mexican Commissioner signing an agreement, approving of the acts of Capt Jemenez, 1st Engineer of the Mexican Com- mission, and assenting unconditionally to all the deter. minations of the line made in his absence by the Ameri- con Commissioner. ‘The line throws into the Enited States both the passes to the Pacific, that of 2an Luis range of mountains, and also the pass of the Guadalupe mountains. The San Luis range of mountains is the same as the Sierra Madre, and vouth of the line there ia no known pass in those moun- tains until you reach the ‘the city of Mexico, which {s suitable even for any ordinary wagon road. ‘The surveys show these ae, for railways; and we learn from. t the country around is undoubtedly rich, ‘what we have any idea, in mineraB, such as iron, co) and silver, but the two last metals have not except im- bedded in rocks, and they, doubtless. will require time and capital to develope.

Major Emory deserves much credit for the able and sa- tisfactory manner he has performed this important duty entrusted to him by our government. W. H.

CITY POLITICS. * DEMOCRATIC MOVEMENTS. HALF SHELL MANIFESTO—ADDRESS OF THE HALF BHELL CITY, COUNTY AND JUDICIARY CONVEN- TION TO THE DEMOCRACY OF THE CITY—LETTERS FROM THEIR NOMINEES ON THE POLITICS OF THE DaY. ‘The address given below was adopted at the Half Shell City, County and Judiciary Convention, that assembled at St. John’s Hall on Thursday evening last, by a vote of 96 to 5, after a stormy discussion. It was reported by Daniel E. Sickles, and may be regarded as the official manifesto of the half shull or Union democrats. We published their ticket yesterday. Appended to the ad- dress aré letters from several of their candidatea, who were interrogated by the committee as to their views on the Maine liquor law, Know Nothingism, and the pro- priety of fusing the democratic party. The letter cf H. Nicoll, who failed to receive the nomination, will be read with interest. The following is the address:— Tus Democranic RepupuicaN Union Convention 70 THE Erectors or me Crry an County or New Yorx. In presenting a ticket for the support ot the democracy of New York at the ensuing State and municipal elec- tions, a proper occasion offers itself for a brief exposition of the reasons which have combined to induce such ac- tion on the part of this convention. The universally re- cognized existence of a sentiment of profound antagonism to the various factions which, either separately or con- jointly, are now striving to obtain control of our State and city governments, clearly indicates the pcopriety the necessity of a united effort of the séund men of ties, as the only means of defeat the allied hosts icism. The remarkable coincidence of opinion on these subjects which exists among the mem- bers of the democratic party of this city, points with equal élearness to that party as the only one capavle of rallying the opponents of abolitionism, ef Maine lawism, and Know Nothingism, upon a com- mon ground. ‘the democratic party ne, tho- roughly pervaded as it is by sound and national sentiments, offers the only security to the fugitives from the ranks ot that great party which has formally sur- rendered itself to the enemits of our individual rights and our national institutions, and affords the only posi- tion whence those enemies can be safely and successfully combated. A conviction of these facts, strengthened by the events of each day and of each hour, has intused into the minds of the democrata of this city a desire and a de- termination for union, which, breaking the trammols of factional organizations, and repudiating the dictation of interested and selfish leaders, have found expression in the movement of which this convention is the result, ‘The immediate causes which led to the formation of a new organization intended to combire the democratic vote of this city, and to unite it on such a ticket as might be deemed most eligible for that purpose, as well as to effect a permanent union of the party on the basis of sound national principles, have been set forth in the two addgesses already published by the General Commiitec. ‘Yo enter again upon an elaborate analysis of those cause: would, therefore, be superfluous ; yet, we may be per mitted to rny, that the reasons which dictate our cours have continied to Increase in magnitude and urgency, and we are convinced must soon make themselves appa- rent 20 every democrat who is sincerely anxious for the success of his party end his prinefples. : ‘he repellant attitude of the two rival and hostile divi- sions of the hye has imposed on us the necessity of selecting our candidates from among those already nated at Stuyvesont Institute and Tammany Hall. Harmony, not discord, being our first and only object, £0 nominate a third ticket would be contrary to the spirit and the aim of our organization—would increase the prevailing con- fusion, and edd another to the elements of dissension al- ready existirg, In making choice of those candidates whom we haye placed on our ticket, we have made no invidious distinctions, but Lave beon ided solely by the exigencies of ‘circumstances, and by a desire to present a ticket which should, ss « whole, best adapt itself to the end§ we have in view. We are conscious that we must have omitted the names of gentlemen por- haps personally ae competent and popular as those on whom our ckvice has devolved; but we have considered the claims of our party ax superior to the claims of indi- viduals, and have endeavored to disregard personal pre- ferences in an effort to secure the triumph of principles. We are not oly willing, but anxious, to accord to other members of the party, and especially to the candidates already in nomination, the same freedom from personal aspirations, and the same zeal for the success of our jrincij les, that we insist on claiming for our- selves. We are convinced that a vast majority of the democrats of New York city are enimated by a similar spirit. We believe that recent events have deprived the terms hard and soft, as applied to different members of the same party, of much of their significancy and all of their relevancy, and that they are now only indicative of furmer differonces and should be considered but as the memeatoes of past divisions. We, therefore, call upon the candidates heretofore nominated, but who may not have been placed upon the union ticket, in the vame of the democracy, in the natne of their cherisbed and time-honored principles, to withdraw from a fratricidal as wellas a suicidal contest, which can terminate in nothing but defeat to themselves and disas- ter to the party. [hey can accomplish nothing by re- maining in the field, but to ally themselves indirectly with the foes whom ‘they profess to combat, and to con- tribute to the triumph of an enemy whom they profess to detest. By withdrawing from o canvass which pro- mires no beneficial yesults to themselves, and leaving the field open for a united and harmonious party, they will sacrifice nothing, but will gain the approbation of their own conagjences and will deserve the applause and the lasting gratitude of all true democrats. We confidently anticipate such action on their part as will conduce to a result so eminently desirable. To the support of the ticket which we now present in the name of the Union Democracy of New York we would invoke all who agree with us in principle, confident that we need only their countenance to obtain a decisive vic- tory. The pledge made by the general committee, and by this convention, to choose candidates who might be sound on all the important questions of the day, has been fully redeeme In pursuance of the resolution adopted by the convention at its lact sitting, interroga- tories have been addressed to the various candidates, and have been satisfactorily answered by all whore names: appear on our ticket. We can state explicitly that our candidates are all sound, national men—that they are all oppored to any legislation by Congress on the sub- ject of slavery in the territories—that they are une- quivoca ly hostile to the odious and tyrannical ‘Maine Hiquor law,” and distinctly commited against the abominable heresies of Know Nothingism. We can also soy with truth, and with pride, that our ticket is pre- emirently entitled to the sapport of all those with whom a reform of municipal abuses, and a decrease of the pre- sent onerous rate of taxation, are paramount objects, The inherent jealousy of profuse expenditure tha’ has always characterized the democratic party affords a guaranty that its success would check that prodigality and wastefulness which are the source.of so many evils, and insure that economical administration of our public affairs 0 long hope in vain from other parties. The democratic organization, therelore, offers to our citizens who aie really desirous for municipal reform the alliance of a great and powerful party, which has the will, and may soon have the ability, to carry out their views. Its principles necessarily conduce to econompiand conse- quent low taxation, and its candidates, as presented by this convention, are personally as well as politically ea- titled to support on that ground. Once moxe we appeal to all those who reject the op- pressive and despotic principle of the Maine law—we ap- peal to those whose rights and privilegos as citizen’ and as men are invaded by the anti-repablican tests of the Know Nothirgs; to those who ace opposed to the aims and the doctrines of that faction, and wuo disapprove its principles and dread its results—we appeal to ail who wit for municipal reform, low taxation, and an economi- cal administration—we appeal to al! who oppose aboli- tionism and fis traitorous designs—we appeal to all democrats who desire the suceess of their party and the confusion of its enemies—to all these we appeal to con- sign former differences to a deserved oblivion, to discard personal predilections, to forsake those pernicious alli- ances which Would lead them from that common centre where lies their only hope of safety, and to rally to the support of the ticket we now present to them on behalf of the national union democracy of New York.

They then read the State and county tickets a8 adopted by the Union General Committee of the HalfShells at St. John’s Hall, and the city and county ticket as nominated by the Union Convei on Thure- day evening. An exciting discussion arose upon the adoption of the city aces nominations. A large number went in for ‘nominations entire. Strong opposition was pte Ben to the nomination of Mr. Malony, ns Governor of Almshouse. No objection was offered to hire ally, but the preference was decided for substituting the name of C, Godfrey Gunther. A motion was finally made to adopt all of the }, with the exception of the nomination for Governor of the Almshouse.

The Republican Central Committee (formed by the two Republican organizations of the city) met at 510 Broad- way last night, for the purpose of completing the work commenced on the previous evening, viz., the nomina- tion of candidates for local officers. ‘The temporary officers who officiated on that occasion were cortinued in office. The attendance of outsiders was augmented considera- bly, and they amused themselves by muking ht leor of with the most discordant sounds of ‘which the humon voice is capable. It reminded one of the doleful groans with which Hindoos, according to Oriental travellers, feck to propitate the favor of thelr god;and the buoy” ant and confident republicans deciaret that the aute. tounnne brethern of the Thugs were Dewailing the cer taluly of their epeedy downtulf The first buciners done was the reception of the report of the committee on permanent organization, as follows: Chairman, C.

This was carried on a division—ayes 45, noes 1, It was then resolved that an executive eommit- tee of one trom each ward be appointed to conduct the campaign. ‘A motion was made to reconsider the voto on the expe- Aiency of making nominations. Upon this, a long debat spiang up between J. J, Chambers, Mr. Peabody, 8..P ‘Townsend, Luman Sherwood, J.T, 31, Blakely, Chas. Rid- dle, nud others, in which the whole ‘range aud composi- tion of the republican movement was discussed. It was contended that if no such nominations weré made the result would be disastrous to the State ticket. The Broadway House came in for a warnt attack and defence, Mr. Sherwood wanted the Licket to be composed of an equal Lumber of former whige and democrats, ‘The mo- tion to reconsider prevailed, ani the question was taken gale approval ofeach name as reported, as follows: Comptroller, .-Azariah C.

Daniel Ewen was proposed for Street Com- missioner, but received only a few votes. In this con- nection, the returm comunittee was sharply denounced, Attempts were made to make some changes in the Coro- ners, but they did not succeed. Cheers were now given for the ticket, the State ticket, for Senator Seward, and for “President”? Seward. Order betng restored, the subject of Senatorial and Assembly Rominations war introduced, and it. was referred to the Executive Committee, with instructions to announce { etion in Tuesday’s papers. The Chair announced an executive committcejwhich gave great dissatisfaction, inarmuch as it was not composed of one from each ward. It was referred bck, with the understanding that ho would announce the committee, Finance Comiuittee in Monday's papers, , ‘The committee then adjourned in good order and per- fect harmony.
