One particular matter which made the town talk was fhe condition of the wounded Metropolitan policeman Grofut, and the action of two of the Coroners in regard to him. This man has grown better, and last night was very well. The previous evening, however, he was Feported as in a dying condition by the black republicans.

Mr. Police Commissiorer Cholwell, it will be seen by proceedings had before Justice Connolly at the Tombs, was yesterday arrested and bound over te keep the peace in bends for $5,000. Mr. Cholwell having heard that such & proceeding was in some progress, dug up the matter and proceeded to the Sheri't with bail to meet the matter. It was hardly a serious matter, and would doubtiess have been dismisged without notice, as it was without fur- ther investigation by Justice Connolly. Pat. Garvin, the tailor in Hudson street, doubtiess] a black repub- ican, has sworn to statements which four very re- spectable witnesses were prepared to refute as withor! foundation. The Justice, in what wasa decidedly facei.ous mood, held the Commissioner in precisely the same ba’! which the Recorder exacts on the warrants—$5,000, Tho matter Lig bene oe ‘ht to eae Lepior Sntird Mayor 4s a ground for cri an jon, re- fused to consider the afidavit, and desired ite ’dis- miseal as an idle and unworthy mater.

THREE MORB—TIGA-A-E. ‘The Police Commission in White street having nothing else to do just now, took up the cases of Captains Ditchett, Dowling and Leonard, the remeining three whom they had lef umdismisaed, of the municipal captains. Preparations were also made to have all the policemen in those wards flop over to Cap tain Carpenter. After inquiring the result at roll call it was ascertained that neither Capt.

AFFAIRS AT THE METROPOLITAN COMMIS. SIONERS’ OFFICE. Nothing of interest transpired yesterday at the rooms of the Albany Commissioners, No. 88 White street. The Commissioners met at 10 A. M. and centinued all day in seesion, enrolling patrolmen in the several wards. The clerk refused our reporter the names of the men appointed. Tho A'bany people haye been trying to cause a defec- tion in the ranks of the Municipals in the Seventh ward. Sergeant John Cameron reported at White street that he visited the Seventh ward station house at 7}¢ o'clock on Thursday evening, to promulgate the orders of the new Commissioners to the men, but Captain Letts ordered him out of ihe room. He then attempted to speak to the men ag they came out to goon duty, but they cheered loully for Fernando Wood, and would not hear him. He then proceeded to the Seventeenth precinct station house, where, at eight o’elock, oflicera Horatio P. Park, Christo- pher Grabam and William Montross, of the Seventh i Captain Lette reported to Chief Matesell that at the sun- rise call yesterday officer Harris declared in favor of the new commissioneré, for which he was hissed byfthe other men.

The General eats as efficiently ashe fights, and con- sequently the breakfast soon disappeared, ‘and as early aseight o'clock, he was called upon by General Caz- neav, with whom he conversed for an hoar, ‘THR SEVENTH REGIMENT S41, UTED HIM, At Vo’clock the General was observed to start rather suddenly, as if attracted by some sound, and soon the less actiaed ears of those present detected the music off tans, which proved to be aemnpnarme the Seventh !to. giment National (iuard, on their return from Boston.

The Genora!, however, not <estring to interfere with the attractiveness of the per- formance, declined ‘‘on account of previous engagements,” On returning the General’s party had received the accession of General and Mrs. Henningsen and Colonel Fayseoux As General Walker alighted, gomo of his Nicaracaan friends greeted him, and congratulated him on his recap- tion {nm New York and various other things; after whicn ho continued for the rest of the afternoon to receive fresh visiters. ‘THY GENERAL VISITS THE SCENE OF THE LATE OYSTER WAR At 5 o'clock, in company with his ancle, (Mr. Norvell), the General left his hotel and proceeded down Broadway to the Staten Island f , where, after paying his sixpence like ordinary people, he went on board the New Brighton ‘Doat, and was soon on his way to the scene of the late oys- ter war. Whether his object was to learn some vew mili tary tactics, by investigating the recent battle of Princes’ Day, did not transpire. Certainly some consternation was exhibited by the goodiy people of Staten Island, some of whom exprested fears that the General was going down to take command of the force at Seguine’s Point. Many passed through the cabin at a respectful distance, viewing im with considerable awe. During General Walker’s sojourn at the Lafarge, he was in the habitof retiring at 12 o'clock P.M.

As we have new developemenis of action here In rela- tion to our affairs with Mexico, Iam constrained to send the foresbadewing by way of New Orleans. It is now whispered in official circles, ns # matter positively deter- mined, that we are to have no peace with Mexico, notwith- standing the diplomatic notes which have passed at Ma- drid, conveying assurances that the affairs were in course of amicable adjustment—“ that tho terms of apology will be drawn so tort that without national degradation and humility unbecoming an independent State, Comonfort will not be able to accept them.’? Under this conception the Spanish fleet 1s to be realy; the troops are already organ- ized by details from the various arms of the service; Sap- {a Anna is to be here or on board of a Spanish vessel of war, and when delay occurs, or absolute refusal to accept the indignity offered, a landing will be effected at such point as may be determined by the bigh dignitaries having charge of the baat it, a8 most expedient for the success nterprise. 180 Hated that this Is perfectly understood by France and England, who will visit these waters with a respectable marine armament, to hold Brother Jonathan in check should he be fractious on account of this fnva. sion of the Monroe doctrine.

Something is about to occur, or clee we are throwing away our own and British money for nothing— which I do not think {s in keep- with Spaniah character—and for mere fanfurronade wo could not afford it.
