Perit, Nye, Bowen, Strana- han, Cholwell and Mayor Powell. Upon motion, Mr. Hasbrouck was authorized to act as eierk, in place of Mr. Embree, who was sick, and the read. imc of the minutes was dispensed with. u. Nyk ammeunced that he bad received a commus). cate from the Mayor, stating that it would be impossible for him to be present, and asking that the meeting be asijourned. He would take the sense of the Board on the question Mayor Powm thought there might be some besiness ‘hat could be done quite as well in the Mayor’s abence. Mr. Bowen rnid it was necessary for them toprepare Sor the coming election. ‘Mr. Prout objected w an adjournment. Bim that they ought w proceed Mr. Bowey objected to postponing for the Mayor’s com ‘venience. Wr. Powr.: thought the order ef businese oxght to be postponed, which contemplated appoinuments, considering ‘That the Mayor was absent. Mr. Bown said Mayor Powell would reoslect that the appointments were made the special order for to day. ‘Mayor Pc weit said Bo referred to genera’ appointments Mr. Bowks then offered a resolution directing the General Superintendent to report the wamos of two or more policemen for every poli district, to be detailed on the day of election, wh.ch pessed unanimously. Mr. STRANAHAN reported a fist of names for appointment ‘wm the Seventh ward, which he wanted pnblished. Mr. Bowen said it was simply a report from a com- = directing the names to be published usder the rules. Mr. SrRANAMAN said it was the rule for the Board to act om them at the bext meeting, Gen. Nye stated that the list would be publisked for “ten days; and on taking the question the motion to publish ‘was passed unanimously. Mr. Bowery moved that officers Devid and Clark, of the oid force, who had been restored to duty in Qotober, be ranted their pay from September from which time they fea 'been doing duty; but by request of Gen. Nye the matter was postponed Mayor Powrt. presented the name of Patrick Murray for appointment on tie New York force, which was re ferred to the appropriate committee. Mr. STRANAHAN said it would be recollected that the Yoar! authorized the publication ef a list of applicants for the Thirteenth ward, which was the special order of the day APPLICATION FOR A SPRCIAL It appeared to OFFICER FOR THE FIRE DEVART- MENT Gen. Nye wished first to introduce another matter. He bad received a communication from the Board of Engineers ©f the Fire Department, asking the appointment of a spe cial person as detective at fires in the capacity of a mem ber of the pglice force, They said that many acts were committed at fires which injured the reputation of the de partment, Whilst none of its members were really respon mdi, the ovpartment, committed acta which should be prevent ed. They recommended the appointment of John B leveri¢ge as the officer spoken of, and ‘asked thit be be appointed. They stated that over ene thousand firemen's badges hat been stolen, by means of which the police could be passed at fires; and they ahought that Mir. Leveridge was sufficiently acquainted ‘With members of the department to be able to recognise apy impostors. Gen. Nr boped the request would be eompli'd with immediately; but upon motion the matter Was revered to the Committee on Appointments THR THIRTRENTH WARD APPOINTMENTS. Mr. Srraxanay moved that the officers recommended for the Thirteenth ward, whose names had been published, be now sworn in. Mr. Peni asked whether they did not come up individu- ally and be passed upon by the Board first Mr. SruaNamay said they would be sworn in by the Board DF. Bowes said it would be better to adhere to their former practice, and let the men puss in review before the Board Gen. Nye approved that course. Mr. Pxrt—Take them up seriatim, Fach individual might come up as his name was called, in review beiore them. EX JUDGE UKERE ORJECTS AS A TAX PAYER. Ex-Jnége Berne, counsel for the old force claiming to ave been illegally discharged, here said he wished to address the Board, as a tax payer, and suggest some con- Bderations to the Board before proceeding to make ap ointments filling up the balance of the department. No @ttizen desired such an end more than he, but he desired say that he had attended faithfully before the Board, for six woeks, as the represontative of some 600 men on ‘application for reinstatement. They had progressed be- fore & epecial committee from the First to the Sixteenth ‘ward of the city of New York mittee bad promised that they would give him « chance for the balance of the wards, and if it tatned out on inves- Sgation that these parties, according to the judyment of fhe cemmittec, had been irregularly dismissod, he g@ubdmitted whether the Board would not cause fo itself very serious inconvenience if by premature ac- Gon they filled the department, and find ‘that many were members of it when it was more than full. He would sug 4 postponement until the special committee should re- Bort large numbers of the mon had boon trrogularly cmiesod by the rules which had been adopted by the Board. If the Board proceeded to fill up the department, aod Uhese men were declared to be also members. it would Seriously embarrass the Board, and caure expense to the | ety which a little delay might prevent. He would not use @ threat Gen. Nrx, (interrupting)—Oh, no, we're used to that— # don’t frighten us atail.

With @ litle delay one mai could be procured, and the ambole case settied speedily Belore procceding to make appointments the Board Should have a report from the special committes, as wo awhether or not, in their judgment, these men were still members of the departuent.

"I re- airy urge the necessity of increasing its nambers ‘Without delay , a8 we cannot shut our eyes to the threaten- ing aspect of the future, and to the importance of prepar- ing for anticipated emergencies. Ll reiterate the request that a strong and effective river Police be organized at the earliest day possible, the rea- sons and mecessity for which it cannot necessary for me to repeat, In connection with this, permit me again to urge upon the Commissioners the speedy appointment of captains or inspectors of the various precincts in the bay | of New York, iCof twenty two precincts, there are but eight captains or ingpectors; the residue, fourteen in number, are com- manded by sergeants acting as capiaius. ‘This state of ibings greatiy impairs the etticiency of the force. ltake pleasure in deing but an act of Justice in com- mending to the favorable consideration of the Board all and severally the acting sergeants who have heen per- forming the duties of Captains in the various precincts. They ‘have, without exception, cheerfully and promptly respended to and obeyed every order that has been s- sued by their superior officers. Their men have been drified, and the internai police of their respective oom mands has received their espectal wttention. The clean! and correct appearance and deportment of the men is the best evidence of the fidelity and efficiency of the officers. ‘In the Seventh and Thirteenth wards there are forty- nine special policemen, whe have acted in that character for the last three months, and, with few exceptions, are strongly recommended for the appointment as policemen “by their commanding officers. I submit the reports made to me by the acting Captains of those Precincts, and re- spectfully ask the early action of the Board upon their re commendation, Justice to those men, who have so long and ¢o faithfully served im these Precinots, weald appear to invoke a speedy change in their condition from the uncertainty that now impends over them. ‘Annexed to this report are voluminous returns from the Deputy Superintendents, Carpenter and Folk, em. bracing statistical returns of the number of srrests made in the cities of New York and Brooklyn, during the past two months, claasifymg and shewing the character of the offences for which they were arrested. i respectfully ask the attention of the Board of Commis- sioners to those details and the observations and sugges- tions that accompany them. During the past two months 8,711 arrests have been made in the city of New York, and 2,806 in the city of Brooklyn—a number that has never been equalled in the criminal statistic of this city, and that by a force greatly inferior in numbers to that which existed previous to the organization of the Metropolitan Police Department. ‘the following summary may prove interesting:— ‘The property stolen from citizens of this city during the past two months amounts to $42,654, of which have been recovered $73,524. Fourteen thousand and ninety-two poor and destitute persons have been accommodated with lodgmgs during the same period. Fight hundred and ninety-five lost children have been restored to their parents, and thirty five have been sent to the Aimshouse through the instru- mental the police.

If we cannot give them food we can provide them shelter. F. A. TALLMADGE, Supt. of Police. Mr. Bowery offered the following resolution: — Resolved, That a communication be made to the Com mon Council setting forth the crowded state of the station houses nightly with destitute persons, requesting them to make provision for them in the present station houses, or to rent tenements adjoining them or inthe neighborhood, to be under the superintendence of the police captains, sduring the present winter. The resolution passed unanimously. Mr. Rowey stated that in reference to the proposed river and mounted poldce application had been made to the Supervisors, and these measures were expected to be car- ried out by the Ist of January. Upon motion, the charges against officers John Canon, John Russel and Charles Van Varick were dismissed. Mr. Peni then moved that the Board proceed with the Thirteenth ward appointments. A citizen called the attention of the Board to the fact that the names of the men which had appeared in the published list were erased from tne list now presented by the committee. Mr. STRANAKAN stated that the names had been erased for reasons entirely satisfactory to the Committee on Ap- pointments, and that was all the satisfaction the gentle- Man could get. Gen. Ny& said they would now proceed. Mr. PowRIL thought these appointments should he do- ferred until the question of the legality of the diamiseal of the old force was settled, and that might be to-morrow Mr. Pesur took 4 that there was room enough after they had taken any umber they could take. The city was certainly not sufliciently protected with the present small number of patroumen. He hoped they would proceed and iunprove time, Mayor Powe said these men were many of them al- | ready special men, and the city would not gain much by their appointment, Mr. Fusurr said they would be some progress in the mat- | ter.

REPUBLICAN CITY AND COUNTY CONVENTION. This Convention assembled at Stuyvesant Institute last evening pursuant to adjournment, for the purpose of no~ minating candidates for Mayor and six Supervisors, for the approaching election. There were some cighty disle gates present. The Convention was called to order by Isaac Dayton—Dr. Snodgrass and Joseph Pinkney o'ficia- ting as Secretaries. ‘The following report of the committee im regard w the nomination of a candidate for the Mayoralty, was read by Mr. Smith, and adopted by the Convention, with the reso- lutions appended:— The Special Committee bs ted by the Reprblican City Convention to confer wii ‘imilar ornate from other representative bodies, to aid in the consummation of a combined moverrent in favor of a people’s candidate for Mayor, respectfully submit treir report. Kee; constantly in view the determined spirit of canciliation whioh characterizes the action of the Conversion itself, yeur coramittee have sought rather to aid the delibera ‘tions of others thaa to secure the adoption of ‘their own \ views. Alter repeated conferences with fe¥iow republi- cans they treely consulted with members of ‘the Ameri- can and demecratic parties, and with merchants and me- chanics of known devotion’ to the interests of our city. The conclusions to which your committee arrived were to present no candidate on your behalf, but to piedge, upon one condition only, your sapport t any that might be selected ‘to lead the united opposition forces. That condition was, that the candidate should te a man of ho- nesty, energy and capacity. This position was announced ‘Dy our cheirman to the committee, constituted at the great meeting held at the Merchamis’ Exchenge, as well as to other bodies. Impelied the one great purpose of rescuing the metropolis of the Union from the wasting despotism of official corruption we left that com- mittee to its own unembarrassed action. It is jut to de- clate that the representatives of every political body ap- pearing before that committee were with patience and respect. Their work, however, was performed apart from all. The result is known. Listening to suggestions on every side, but guided only by a high sense of tne exi- gencies of the canvass and the interests of the people, that committee has nominated aman of whom every republi- can May declare “he is right in everything but his poli ties, and these he has pledged to exclude from our munici- pal government.” (Applause ) Atthough unlike bis no: torious competitor, he has never either openly or secretly strayed from the democratic camp, yet we can forget bis life-long devotion to his party because we know it was honest and never used as an engine of official aggrandise- ment. ‘The republicans of the city of New York seek no yarty advantage in the coming charter election. They de- sire only an honest city government, and this they and with the people in electing Daniel F. Tiemann. In him | New York wil! have a Mayor of clear intellect, of generous sympathies, of resolute purpose and of iron integrity. Your committee would beg, in conclusion, to submit fur your adoption the subjoined resolution. JOHN A. KENNEDY, A. DELAFIELD SMITH, JOHN FITCH, WILLIAM ALLEN, D. D. T. MARSHALL. New York, Nov. 19, 1857. Resolved, That the Republican City Convention, in de- ference to the believed wishes of their constituents, will not make a formal nomination for the office of Mayor, Resoived, That it be earnestly recommedded to the re- pubheans of the city of New York to cast their united vote at the ensuing December election for the peopie’s candidate—Daniel F. Tiemann. Resolved, That the members of this Convention con- nected with our central committees and our ward and district associations wi | labor to give to the people's can- didate the whole strength of the republican organization, assured of success and cheered by the prospect of a be- nificent triumph over Fernando Wood and the great spoils principle of which he is the embodiment. When the foregoing were adopted the Committee on Su- Pervisors presented a majority and minority report, but as neither were adopted the Convention, on motion, pro- ceeded to ballot for candidates, with the following re- sult-— vhn A.

The au- dienc4 was as jarge as that which attended the opening cor’ gnonies of the library, and the interest was as lively AS ‘was manifested on that occasion. The meeting was Med to order by the President, Hon, Lather Bradish, efter which prayer was said by Rev. Dr. Bethune. he venerable Dr. down W. wes, one of the founders ‘of the institution, was then introduced, and after the ap- Aause with which he was recelyed had subsided, he do- Fora the anniversary address. ‘The subject of his dis- ‘course was personal recollections of the history and pro- greswof the Fmpire City, and it was treated with atl that Admirable sty’e of illustration for which the speaker is 80 deservedly distinguished. The fleld presented by the sub- ne was, however, so extensive that he found it impossi- le #0 go over the whole of it, and was oblige’, there- fore, to content himself with sketches of the princ- pal events and charactors of historical note and im- portance. The Doctor’s fund of humor aud rich store of an- ecdotes gave additional interest to the address, which was itstened to throughout the hour and a half consumed in its delivery with unabated attention. Among otber things which fe related in regard to the natnral history of New York, was a fact, the knowledge of which is confined to very few. St. John’s park, said he, contains a greater va- riety of trees than ig to be found on any other spot of ground of equal extent in the known world. Among the noted men of the past generation whom he brought in re- view before his audience was Dr. John M. Mason, whose character was sketched with much power of delineation. ‘This same Dr Masou was a gingular genius, and among the remarkable sayings which he is said to have made use of, was one that for its truth as well as quaint humor de- serves to be recorded. ‘To be poor in this world and to be damned in the next, is to be miserable indeed,” ie an expression that he is reported to have used on one occasion. Lorenzo Low, another of the worthies of the early days of New York, also received due justice at the Doctor's hands. Lorenzo, when one day asked for a detinition of Calvinism, gave the following:— ‘You wit! and you won't, You can and you can’t, You'll be dainned if you do, ‘And you'll be damned if you don’t. On another occasion he was asked by two persons, named Root and Branch, what kind of a place heaven was? when he replied that it was a wide, extensive region—a beau- tiful plain, something like our prairie country, where there is neither root nor branch to obstruct the view. At the close of the lecture Dr. Francis paid a high tri- bote to the efficient manner in which Hon. Mr. Bradish had preaided over the society for many years, and re- ferred in terms of the highest eulogy t the liberality which had enabled the society to erect such a handsome structure, Dr. Hawkes moved that a vote of thanks be tendered to Dr. Francis, and that he be requested to furnish a copy of his address for publication, The motion was seconded by President King, of Columbia College, and adopted unanimously by the’ meeting. Jt was then an nounced that a series of lectures for the benefit of the contingent fund would be given, and that the first-would be delivered next Tuesday evening by Dr. Francis. ‘ Commissioners of Emigration. ‘The Board of Fmigration Commissioners met on Wed- nesday, Gulian C. Verplanck, President, in the chair. REPLY TO THE QUARANTINE COMMISSIONERS, Mr. CaRrican presented the following, addressed to the | Quarantine Commissioners: GeytiemEN—Your note of the 3ist ult.,in which you mention the transmission to the Commissioners of Em} gration of the report of the Governor, Lieutenant Governor ‘nd Comptroller, not disapproving of the preparations at Seguine’s Point, and in which you state that you will keep a watchman uptil the 6th inst., when he must be dis- | charged, as you have no funds to pay him, the appropria | tion being exhaueted, has been received and the whole | subject of it has been carefully examined and considered. The Commissioners of Emigration, nevertheless, have been unable tochange their opinion, deliberately formed and ex pressed by them on the 13th of Angust last to your Com- mission, in regard to the absence of accommodation at Seguine’s Voint and their consequent exemp- tion from any duty to take charge of the insufficient shanties at that place. The Governor, Lieute: nant Governor and Comp roller, although authorized by the Quarantine Removal act to’ only approve of the ex penses, having qualifiedly approved of the buildings by implication, recommended this Commission to assume the care of them, This being 80, and your Commission being withont finds any longer to guard them, the Commission- ers of Emigration, as officers of the State, to which the | property belongs,'and for the purpose if practicable of securing it from waste or destruction, cannot refase in the present emergency to relieve your Commission from its embarrassment and appoint & person to protect these buildings. They accede to your request, however, in this respect, protesting against any obligation upon them to assume in trust, and in the expectation that the expenses thus incurred will ultimately be re imbursed from fome other than the emigration fund, all of which will be required during the ap. proaching inclement season, aggravated as its seve- rity will be by the general business prostration of the country to 80) the emigrants for whom ithas been collected, and to whose use it has been sacredly pledged by the State, ANDREW CARRIGAN, CYRUS CURTIS, RUDOLPH GARRIGUE. ‘The above was adopted.

The Rebellion tn Yucatan, PROGRESS OF THE SIEGE OP CAMPRACHY——NEW CON: SPIRACY DISCOVERED AT THE CAPITAL. [From the New Orleans Picayune, Nov, 15.) By the Mexican schooner Arrogante, direct from that port, we have Campeachy papers, full files, to the 27th | ult., five days later than our previous intelligence from Laguna, via Vera Cruz. The besieged town not only stil) continued to hoid out,.vut judging from the Espiritu Pub lieo, which, as the organ’ of the revolutioni«ts, and of | course directly under their influence at the present time, | must, perhaps, like the Mexican papers, be taken with some’ grains of allowance, there was no prospect of its | speedy capture. That paper laughs them to sorn:— Our ferocious and barbarcus enemy still hold what they call an “advantageous” position in the suburb of San Francisco. They amuse themeelves with depredations on the country round about, and inventing the means of as faulting us. They evidently think that the assaalt of | Campeachy, that other Sebastopol which, crowned with the glories of a hundred victories, deties them, is no more difficult than the surprise of our troops and the capture of | San Francisco, * * © Do not the Col. (future General) | Cepeda and that famous Sultan Raqueiro know the his | tory ofthis people? Have they not heard tell how in | other days eleven thousand Mexicans, more brave than they, assanitved Campeachy and were not able to take it?
