The fol ‘jowing extract from the official report will show thu ports pyblished in the Hxnaiy not to have, been exagge- Of the premises in Third street, in the course of the communicatioa, the City Inspector writes as tollows:— “These buildings are built upon three lots, and are four stories bigh, bo h front ant rear. In the front building, ‘on the lower or ground floor, there is one segar ebop, ‘one shocmaker’s shop, two grocery stores, one cap store aad one rag store. * * * The other three floors contain eight families, occupying each two rooms. There are po rag pickers ip the iront building. © * © Inthe Tear building there are thirty two families living, each ccupyipg two rooms, and are all rag pickers excepting one family. These premises are ail in a very @ithy condition, especially the back stoops, which are made a repository of all theig ra apd bones, and the stench arising from them is intolerable, and is endangering the lives of the citizens in the vicinity. The occuyants are constantly in the ha- ‘Dit of hanging their filthy rags on lines stretehed asross: ‘the back stoop, and some of them go so far as to hang +them vpon the gratings of the windows of the adjoining mises. The rag and bone pickers bring all of their rags “dato the premises, and then wash them and let the filthy water run on thefr floore, which will cause sickness any- where; after which they wil! hang their rags npon lines ‘in the rear thereby causing a sickening emell to cireu- ‘fate through the windows of the adjoining premises con tinually. * © © Another danger exists in the condition -of theee premises, and that is, in case of fre it would impossible for the inmates to sang, Oo betas being al! wood and the entrances too ai "? Relative to Nos. 88 aud 90 Sheriif street—the ‘Rag Pckers’ Paradise’’—the communication says:—‘'I have ‘visited the premises Nos. 88 and 90 Sheriff strect, known ‘as ‘Rag Picker’s Paradise,’ and foand them in a very efiltby condition, so much so, that it would require a stomach mace of brass to prevent bim from heaving at every respiration. | found the sieeping apartments with out Ventilation, save in one bedroom in which was a small hole, wbout ten inches square.

The Commissioners voted to eve the Clty Tuspector power to order the landlords o° premises referred to in his ‘commumeation to take such action in the premises as he deemed necessary.

Still they ‘would not come in conflict with the Board of Health, and ‘would receive the reports of the Resident Physician with- oot publivhing them.

Police Intelligence. Exrert Brrc.ary, pur Unsvocessrun AtrEMrr To CaaRy OFF THE PLUNDER.—At an early hour yesterday morning, some expert burgiars effected an entrance to the exten- sive silk warehouse of Guillaume, Fargo & Oo., 27 Park row, and selected about $10,000 worth of silks, satins and velvets, with « view of depositing the same elsewhere. The entrance to the building was obtained by the scuttle of the building, to which access was through some house in Ann street. The burglars packed up the goods i large sacks and lowered them inte the hands of aD who was secreted in Theatre alley, (in the rear of the store.) The fellows then proceeded to barri- cade the front door, soas to prevent the entrance of any one while the goods were being conveyed away to the About 5 o’clock the porter of the store came down town, and on endeav to unlock the door, he found it unusually obstinate. that there was something wrong, he called officer Finlay, of the Second ward police, and informed him of the circumstance. It was then agreed by them to go around in the rear. On coming up to the rear door they were surprised to find a number large sacks ‘with valuable silks. They were proceeding to examine them, when a man rushed out from a place of concealment, and ia rather broken icnglish told the to meddle with the goods, as they belonged to him. The policeman humored the fellow Tor some moments, with hope of catching his accomplices, but they smelled the rat and would not come forward. The individual who could not speak the English language fluently was then told that he mustcon- sider himself under arrest, for claiming goods which had just been stolen from Messrs. Guillaume’s store. He pro tested against the proceeding, and sald “The goots are mine property’? more than @ dozeu times; but the game would uot work, so tonic burgiar in the station house to eesiecte et ies aoe a The premises were then searched by the porter and the policeman, but nothing except the goods that were found in the bags could be found ed 3 Yesterday atternoon the prisoner was brought before Justice Connolly, at the Lower Police Court, where he gave his name as Henry King. He said he wasa German, and a machinist by occupation. The magistrate committed King for trial on ctarge of burglary. No trace of the prisoner’s accom- plices have been discovered. Cuastisinc Rowprrs—A Covracrovs Fematy.—On Tues- day evening, a8 Mrs. Emily Johnson was sitting at the window of her residence, in Canal, near Washington street, she was grossly insulted by some ruffians who stood upon the sidewalk opposite her dwoiling. Mra. Jobneson had been treated in this manner on one or two oceasicns previourly, and was determined to put a stop to such an outrage. Accordingly she took a loade ! pistol from ber pocket ard coolly tired it at the Nm ler of the rowdy gang. The ain waa unfortunately a bad one, and the ball went wide of the mark, aud came vory pear winging an inpocent person some hundred feet off. Mrs. Johnson was soon afterwards arrested by the Fifth ware police, who came up when their services were not needed, and was yesterday held to bail in the sum of $600 to kecp the peace. Mrs. John- son's husband is now absent in Ecrope, and she says she has been sorely annoyed for weeks past by the presence of rowdies re her door. The police, we think, ought at least to spend a few minutes of their time in the neigh- borhood of Canal and Washington streets, as it has been oe infested with a dangerous gang of thieves and ruf- Ds. Peacociovs Yortus.—Two boys, named William Mee. ban and Edward Dunn, were taken into custody on Tues- day night, on a charge of stealing a couple of gold watches from the store of Mr. Jacobs, No. 102 Chatham street. The prisoners, it is alleged, cut a hole in the sbow window and extracted the jewelry, without ving the occupants of the premises the slightest knowledge the fact Fortunately for Mr. Jacobs, a neighbor of his on the opposite’side of the street saw the entire modus ope- randi, aud giving information to one of the clerks, the lads were taken into custody. A thir party made his escape, and it is supposed he carried o'! the stolen p1 ty, for the prisoners were not in possession of any valua bles wher arrested. Meehan and Dunn were brought be fore Justice Connolly, at the Lower Police Court, when they were committed for trial on acharge of grand lar. ceny. Naval Intelligence. OUR KEY WEST CORRESPONDENCE.

American Dentef Association. ‘The American Deatal Society held its second annual session at Hope Chapel yesterday, being called to order at about 11 o’clock A. M., by the presiding officer of laat year. About seventy delegates were in attendance frons vari- ous States of the Union, distributed av follows:— Delegates. Delegates. 2 States. States. New York.. Delaware land Pennsylvan® 2 3 10 ss 6 Totian husetts, 6 1 Maine.... 1 1 Connecti 3 3 Rhode Isiand BE 4 New Jersey... 2 Quite a number of other gentlemen, not members of the society but interested in muiters relating to dentistry, were also present. The minutes of the last meeting having been read and approved, @ delegate from Pennsylvania otiered the fol- lowing resolution: Resolved, That all practising members: of the denial pro- fession who may be prevent, and feel desirous of co-operating with us, be considered as, and are hereby, active members of this Convention, and are requested to the articles of the Conventicn, The Cua decided that tho resolution would not be in order until the \hird and fourth articles of their constitu- tion were suspended, as they distinctly specitied the mode of electing members. A motion was then made and seconded, that the articles in question be suspended: ‘The articies in question read as followa.— The Convertion shall consist of the members who shall sign these articles of association, and of such other practitioners of santas: aud auxiliary branches of science as shall hereafier be elected to membership, and in like manner sign those articles. Candidates for membership shall be nominated by a member of this Convention, at any of its meetings, and every such candidate who shall receive a majority of the votes cast upon the question of his admission shall be de- clared Guly elected. A DetxcatTk from New York was in favor of the sus pension of thesearticles. He desired the Convention to be an opea one, and the platform they shoul! lay down a broad and democratic one, with as little machinery as porsible to carry out the ends they bad in view. According to the spirit of the articles which they were called upon to suspend, it was necessary that they should go through considerable ceremony, which would greatly retard thc business before them. He desired to give their friends who were strictly members of this Convention the right hand of fellowship at ouce, ia order that they might feel entirely et ease. He trusted, therefore, that the mo. tion to suspend these articles would prevail. ‘The vote wea then taken and the two rules were ac- cordingly suspended. A Dxtkcave from Pennsylvania moved to amend by substituting in the place of the word “requosted,’’ the words ‘‘at iiberty.’’ A Gextixmay from New York addressed the Chair, but — ruled out of order, as he bad not signed the con- ition. The PResipeyt said that the gentieman was out of order, as Le was uot a member of the society. Tne Getreman from New York—Will the Chair allow me a word? The Presxxt—You are not in order, eir, not being a member. . The GextieMaN in his seat—I am a guest of this Con vention, but if 1am to be gagged in this way, I may as weii take my hat. ‘The amendment was adopted, and the resolution as «mended was then agreed to. The PRevexr—Gevtlemeu present of the deata! pro- Jession are now at Liberty to uaite with us in any of cur wets. (Applause) ‘The Prestpent eaid, in response to an inquiry of one of the delegates, that there was in the resolution that related to members of the auxiliary branches, and that pobody had any ri to take part in the proceedings of the Conveation but dentists. A Musa appealed trom this decision, but the appeal was pot ecconded, j ra Detucatk from New York offered the following reso- jution:— Resolved, That the gentlemen who have been practising dentists, and who may be now engaged in the ausiliary ma the same footing ax dentists, or any person the Conv may nominate be admitted as me A Detxcate from Pennsylvania wished the mover of the resolution to explain what be meant by auxiliary br . He granted that this Convention, as a body, might receive a great deal of ligat aud knowledge from all the collateral branches of science, which might be called so far auxiliary branches to their profession; but the question of admitting members of all tuo auxiliary branches to a vote in this Convention was quite another matter. ‘he mover of the resolution, in reply, said that he meant that class of persons precisely who were acmitted to a seat in their Convention at Philadelphia last year. A Menxnar from New York thought taat bd pms of the resolution would be opening the doors of thia Conven: on rather too wide. The words “auxiliary branches’’ might include all persons who had ever made anything ‘that was used in the practice of dentistry. If there were persons engaged in making teeth, or editing dental journals, who desired to be admitted as members of the Convention, their paimes could be presented singly to the Convention, and the question of their admission then be acted upon. They ought notto adopt a general rule io refercace to this matter, for they would then likely be overrun by all kinds of mechanics claiming to occupy seats in the Convention. After farther interchange of opinion by several gentle- men present, an amendment was offered that the word “* retired’’ be added, so that retired professional dentists can take part with the Convention. ‘A Sean from New York said, that by way of illus- tratiop he must repeat a Latin proverb, ‘‘ Montes parturi ent ridiculus mus nascitur.” (Laughter.) It soemed to him that they were str to lug into their association material which they could rot handle. He supposed this ba a or neg em because @ man nod ti m the of and was eng ‘a some other Pestneen, he ait vot necessarily lose his title to be considered as a dentist. He hoped that there would be no farther strife about this matter, and that they would eed at once to the consideration of the questions whicb would come up for the conside ration of the Convention, and which would prove ex tremely interesting to all here. Other amendments were olfered, but a Devroate from New York moved to lay the whole subject upon the table, which was carried in the affirmative with great applause. A GeytieM an from Philadelphia said that be was not a practising dentist, but was in attendance bere upon invi tation. In response to an inquiry whether be bad not a right bere, the Chair decided that none but practising dentists and those who had signed the constitution had a right to seats im the Convention. A Datraate appeated from the decision of the Chair, Another Druecate thought the appeal was out of order, as the whole subject had latd upon the table. ‘The Cnain decided that the point was net weil taken. The question on the appeal was then taken, and the decision of the Chair sustained by a large majority. It was then moved and seconded to restore articles 3 aad 4. which had beea suspended. New York said that the words ‘‘ prac ** sounded very much alike, but they were very diflerent. If they adopted the word “ practising ” in their admission of persons to seats as members of this Convention, they would exclude very good dentists, who were tem; ily out of practice. Toe resolution ruled them out use they would not be “ practising '’ dentists, although they might be «' prac tical” dertiste. He wanted a latitude in this re spect than was now fateh J the resolution. A Myvnen from Louisiana said that, as chairman of the committee that bad this matter under advisement, he would exp'ain that the object of the resolution was to obtain the asai.tance of men engaged in collateral sciences, such as chemists and members of the medical profession. The Crain called the gentleman to order, as not speak- ing to the question before the Convention, which was upon the restoration of the third and fourth articles. The Gantieman hoped the articles would be restored, and the whole controversy closed. A Detecate from Philadelpbia raid, that the origiral in tent of the articles was not to admit all collateral branches. A Deuecate from New York inquired whether the res- toration of the articles would not exclufe all who have pot been elected under them ? ‘The Cnain said it would exclude all such as should here- already here, who have been admitted by resolution. A Deiec.ate from Ohio said the restoration of the articles would place the Committee where it started. A Detxcate from Massachusetts said that was what he wanted. He wanted to undo all that had been done up to this time. He wanter| all dentists who desired it to be. come members, and he wanted all others whom we want to become members also. A motion was then made to lay the whole matter on the table, which was carried. gentlemen were here admitted as mombers. The Cuan then appointed a Business Committees of one from each State represented in the Convention, to prepare business for the action of the Convention. A motion was made to admit a dental instrument a of this city, which was carried by a vote of 17 tw iM. A motion was then made to admit a gold foil and tooth manufacturer of Brooklyn, to which opposition was mant- feeted on the part of several members. One gentleman said he believed all percha maou. facturers should be admitted. (Laughter.) The motion to admit, in this case, not agreed to. “The Cuainmas of the Business \ttee reported that the address of the President was first in order; second, the election of officers; third, condinon and the expenditures 90—leaving ® Daludee of $0.40 1h the treasury.

The vote for Governor in 1854 resulted as follows :— Democratic . 43,812 Whig... eves 46,742 Democratic majority...... ectelidaicsthvene SOD The Buffalo Express, some days since, etated that a very strong and systematic eflort was making, and with some show of success, to bring the Buchanan men of this State in fusion with the Fillmore Know Nothings, so that the Buchavanites shall vote for the Fillmore electoral ticket, and in return receive support from the Know Nothings to some of their local offices. This the Courier (dem.) pro- nounces false, and gays that any coalition or bargainiog with the Fillmore or Fremont Know Nothings, if there was any democrat base enough to listen to it, would be repudiated by the mass of the democracy. The following, from the Mobile Advertiser, is additiona, evidence that the Fremont fever is proving to be an epi. demic in the South, and that even in Alabama, where the nigger driving democracy has heretofore held undisputed sway, the benighted non-slaveholders are waking up-— Well might the deli in the late Black Republican Convention, at Philadel urge that so rapid would be the spread of republican d trince that in four years: could, with impunity, hoid their Convention in Rich or Lexington. If he had known how many black repub- Nicans there were ip this State and community he might have moved to adjourn the Convention to meet in 1860 at Moatgomery. There are men here in Alabama and in ths county who are not to own a preference to Fremont, or any other aboiitioniat, to Buc! . How can the Scuth ever expect to maintain her setf respect or obtain her just rights, if she even endures such on her soil, much less permits them to occupy iafuential positions with her borders ? The Boston Courier, Fillmore Know Nothing, is at- tempting to prove that Mr, Fillmore differs in no respect from Mr. Fremont in regard to his avowed opinions on the subject of slavery; that he is equally opposed to ala- very, in general, to its extension into the Territories, except as provided by the Missouri compromise, to the repeal of that compromise, and on precisely the same grounds with Mr, Fremont, ne is inflexibly opposed to any interference with it as it exists in the States of the Union, This is another nut for the Southern pro-slavery Know Nothings. ‘The Angusta, Ga., Chronicle, some days since, pub- lished the following letter from Mr. Crittenden, Mr. Fillmore’s Attorney General, in relation to the views of the President on the Fugitive Slave law at the time it was parsed by Congress. It is maintained by Mr. Fill- more’s supporters in the North tnat the princi gles of the bill were obnoxious to him, aud that he only gave it his signature from a conviction of duty arising from the fact that it had been fully discussed in Congress, and was passed after the most matare deliberation: — Wasuiverox, Jaly 11, 1866, In answer to your letter of the 4th July, I reply that neither during his administration, nor at any time, did he ever say tome, or in my hearing, ‘that the Fugitive Slave law @as unconstitutionsl,"’ or anything to that ef- fect. Neither is it true “that it was only CP your (my) urgent solicitation as bis adviser that he cou! induced to sign the bill.” For the pu as 1 suppored, of act- \ng, and showing that he acted, deliberately and advisediy upon se important a subject, he required me, as the law officer of the government, to give my opinton in writing in regar:! to the conatitutionality of certain clauses of the bill, and I cid so. | believe that he also consulted, as ugual, all the members. This was done, no doubt, out of respect for his Cabinet, and to secure to_ his conduct the highest sanction which the advice of his Cabinet coun- seliors could give. All the members of the Cabinet, I be- Neve, ad im favor of the bill, and in so doing con- curred, as | understood, in the President's own opinion on the subject. There was no Te, or solicitation to Mr. Fillmore to sign the bill that I know of. It certainly needed none, nor did Lever suppose that any was neces- sary. Mr. Fillmore, I have no doubt, sigoed that bill treely, in Obedicuce only to his own convictions and sense of duty. J. J, ORITTENDEN, The Erie, Pa., True American, which halted for some Lime between two opinions, bas come out with the names of Fremont and Dayton at the head of its columns, This makes the fourth Fremont paper im that county. ‘The louisville Journal, (Fillmore organ, gets off the following —It seems to be catablished that there were more niggers in the Buchanan procession, at Indianapolis, than in the Fremont procession, The natural inference, ig that most of the Indiana niggers are Buck-niggers During the holding of the Fillmore meeting in Bos' on, on Monday night, Mr. Ely, president of thenewly ¢ stab. liahed Fillmore Know Nothing State Council, diaplay fed to the audience two transparencies, and asked ther, which they would choose’?

Unanimous for Buchanan. Convention of the Judges. at Albany. ‘The present season.is what the lawyers call their vaca- tion. Most of them are travelling over the country, or quietly sojourning in the rural districts. Their contre- versies or collisions no louger worry the bench, annoy witnesses, fatigue juries, excite themselves, or try the pe- tience of reporters. They have relapsed into the prim: tive activity of their clerkahips. Tho Judges, comv»» tiowally called learned, have nearly all boen in the sa..¢ state of torpor until now, when the Code—that great ..«- turber of their brains and digestives—calls them t sa rksome duty and an equally irksome locality, Ther a+ sembled at Albany yesterday, under the four hun: ~t and seventeenth ecction of that remarkable product: a, the Code aforesaid, the Judges of the Supreme Court snd of the Superior Court and Common Pleas of this ci Their purpose is to “revise their general rules aud mak~ such amendments thereto a6 experience has shown to be necessary to carry into effect the provisions of the Cot~ of Precedure, and to make such further rules as they, deem proper,’’ not inconsistent with that act. We are not iaformed whether the crowned heads and potenta:-4 of Europe were made aware that this mighty conveatna of wiedom was to oscur. But mo doubt Pierce, Marey and the Cabinet are coguizant of the fact. There ‘8 no prospect, however, that any of the Judges will bring before the (literally) august body a momentous fifty cent question as to breeches. But there issome likelihood that the ‘ standing rule’? may excite diseus- sion. The Judges differ as to the wisdom and effect of that regulation. For our own part we think that aay provision to procure upright lawyers and judges deserves favor. Well, now that the judiciary are collected we hope they will do something wise. Perhaps they can agree on @ new inethod of embarrassing the press in libel eults, and afew stereotyped expressions to adopt in urg- ing juries to heavy verdicts againsteditors. The Judges. have prerogatives and should see to their being protected. ‘Tne community suppose it is no part of the duty or right of a Judge tocomment or give an opinion on the facts; bet of course the Judges know better, and, having the ‘ast word, can make it very effective either from spleen towards counsel, sympathy or prejudice to one of the litigants, or as the means of acquiring notoriety for bold- ness and ability. We insist upon it that the Judges must confirm to themselves this important power. They have already made themselves irresponsible for ite abuse, by determining that however they may usurp or violate the right of a suitor or jury on pure questions of fact, the infured party cannot be heard to complain. We claim, also, that the Judges should resolve to be still more severe on jurors or witnesses who do not attend court at the moment it opens, while, of course, the same Judges may keep two or three hundred people waiting for them an bour or so, aud no one must murmur, Aad im order to insure politeness aud urbanity on the part of the lawyers, the Judges should adopt a rule that eating ap- ples or reading newspapers on the beach, while a cause is progressing, is most creditable to jurisprudence and breeding. Perhaps ft may be unreasonab’e to insist upoa their depositiag their boots on the bench during an ar- gument or a summing up, and that subject may be lef ta the judicial discretion so beneficial aud salutary, whereof ho man ever did or ever is to know the boundaries, ‘Then, as to the lawyers, they_are all brethren—that ia ope of the established facts. Their spats aad quarrels only make their reconciliation more interesting.

If any rules can be adopted to ncrease, if porsibie, the delightful amenity of the barto- ward each otber,and their polite bearing to witrcsses, we trust they will be promulgated at once. We would also advise that the Judges carefully avold ary change which might remove that utter want of naiformity ia the decisions of their respective districts, which has prevailed since tae Code went into effect. That system of contraciety illus trates so happily the independence of the Judiciary, and the infinite diversity of thought, that to impatr it at ald would be & most unfortunate resui. We might make other suggestions to tbe judicial cow- vention, if, indeed, we could believe that they would ex- cuse us for hinting that there is actully a. single rue not yet established by which judges and lawyers may be rendered dignified aud useful promoters of that J tice which the complicated machinery of our seems 80 ingeniously sontri ved to defeat.
