The Quarantine war rages as fiercely as ever Governor King is out with a proclamation declaring Richmond county in astate of insurrection, and willing upon the military to occupy the rebellious Jistrict. Up to last evening, however, troops had not been sent down to Staten Island; but it is ex- pected that they will leave for tue battle-field this morvivg. Nothing of importance transpired at Quarantine yesterday. Everything was quiet up to alate bour in the evening. The case o' Thomas Garrett, one of the parties implicated in the burning of the Quarantine buildings, came up yesterday in Judge Walsh's court, before Recorder Barnard. It Was postponed. however, until ten o’clock this mor- ning, when the question raised on the habeas cor” pus will be decided in the Supreme Court. The Deputy Superintendent of Police yesterday atternoon had av interview with the Superin tendeot of the Fourth Avenue Railroad, near Forty second street. It was in reference to the ciscontina- ance of the use of steam oa Fourth aveaue below that street, and the result of it was that the Deputy Superiutendent ioformed ‘he railroad Superinten- dent that if the use of steam on the Fourth avenue, below Forty second street, is not discontinued today at twelve o'clock, foreible measares will forthwith be adopted. Captuin Speight and twenty meo from the Twenty first precinct were also present, ready to execute aby order which might be given by the Police Superintendent. No promise was made by the railroad Superutendent, consequently large numbers of people lovk forward to twelve o'clock with considerable interest. These measures have been adopted in consequence of the decision ren dered by Judge Nelson on this subject last Tues” day, in the United States Circuit Court. Tne Republican and American State Conventions for the nomination of candidates for Governor, Liew tenant Governor, « Canel Cowmissiover and a State Prison Inspector, meet at Syracure at noon today Our telegraphic despatches contain the latest re- ports and spect s as to who will probably be put in nomination At the Massuchusetts Republican State Conven. tion, held at Worcester yesterday, Governor N. P. Banks, and the balance of the republican State offi cers were nominated for re-election. The steamship Fulton, from Havre and Cowes, ar. rived at this port yesterday with details of Earopean news to the 25th ult. An interesting résumé of the intelligence is given in today’s Homatp. Our despatebes from Washington state that Sir Wm. Gore Ouseley has been ordered to Central America by the British government. He has already left Washington, and wil! proceed to Central Ameri- ca as soon as the teason is sufliciedtly advanced to permit of bis so doing with safety. It ia reported that James B. Bowlin, of Missouri, bas been ten- dered the mission to Paraguay. The Grand Jury were ewpanelled yesterday in the Court of General Sessions, aud were briefly charged by Judge Rasseil, who, contrary to expectation, did not al.ude to the complaints now pending against the alleged Quarantine rioters, whose cases will be Getermined vy the Grand Jury at anearly day. The trial of © iilian Mulligan (woo bas been rearrested), for assaulting Captain Webb, at the Metropolitan Hotel, was put down for the 17th inst. The committee appointed by the Legislatare to inquire in the workings of the Metropolitan Police law, met yeeterday at Florence's Hotel. Dr. Bissell, the resident Physician of Quarantine, although subpenerd the previous day to attend and give evi- Gence, did net up to the sdjeurnment of the com- mittee make his appearance. The committee will sit daily The fight between Charles Lynch, an American, and Jobn Sallivan, a young arpirant for fistic honors in the English prize ring, took place on the 17th ult.. cear London. After twenty-nine rounds, at the expiration of forty eight minates, Lynch was de- clared the victe Aw accident oceurred early yesterday morn- ng to two cattle trains on the Hudsoa River Raiiroed. Ove of the engineers and a drover were instantly killed, end two others were badly in- jured. From the Coroner's investigation it is not likely that any person will be blamed. An interest- ing report of the accident will be found io another column. We have news from Huevos Ayres to the 10th of July.

The Consequence is that 212 of these cells have to be oubied at present; but he is afraid as the winter draws pear it will be impossible to accommodate them.

The “bdlocd of all the King-” ts up. aud Gov. King has ivsued bis proclamstion placing Staten Island under martial law until the rewrving sense of the people of Richmond county ehall render the presence of the military unueses- fery, or until the Législature shail otherwiee direct. There is a homely adage about shutting the stable door after the steed is stolen, which we would commend to the attention of Gov. King. Had be thought of these proceedings before, when he was feasting in the city, or at any former time, be might bave used success- fully the “ounce of prevention,” where now the “pound of cure’ wll be of no avail. Long since bas the hostility of the people of Staten Irland aguinet this pest-house of physical and politics! corruption in their mids’, been patent to the world. They have ured every effort to nave it removed. They have obtained wn act ofthe Legisiature sancti-ning its removal; their Gravd Juries have indict d it asa nuisance; their Boards of Health have protested against its coutinuauce; tbeir local authorities have exbeu-ted every effort to carry out the wit of the people; and all this has been of po avail, Not that their exertions we e not founded upon justice and the rights of every social community, but because the Qua- rantive establishment was rooted in political ecrruption, and was and is a part acd parcel of that infamous system of political management tha’ bus grown up amongst us and is sapping the very ‘oundstions of our government. For yeurs every party, democrats, whigs, black republicans and Know Notbings, have all fou, bt to obtain the control of the Quarantine establishment, because it afforded an immense ‘und for the corrupting purposes of party. The growing commerce of New York is the rich mine that yields, bow many hundreds of thousands of dollars yearly, no one except the few initiated kvow. This corruption fund hus been freely used against every effort to remove or reform the Quarantine, Country members of the Legis- lature bave been bought up at so much a head tosustain it, at rates Jess than the price of bull beef. Dead Rabbit and Plug Ugly votes have been hired to coptrol primary elections, and to frighten people away from the polls at the popa- lar ones. Hungry officials have been bribed into eilence, avd the whole machinery of government has been prostituted to saaction and guard the system. In order to shield this outrageous system of public plunder, of which the Quarantine echeme is a part, the plan of putting everything into the hands of impersoval and irresponsibie boards bas been adopted. Thus we bave the Board of Health, where no body is responsible for anything. If the mer chants complain that they are robbed in the quareptine charges, the Health Officer turns it upon the Board of Health; this Board shifts it ppop the shoulders of the lightermen and steve- dores; and these, again, lay it upon Yellow Jack, or some such creation of the fancy. In the same way was the respousibility of the neg- lect of the defence of the State property shifted from sboulder to shoulder. When the outrage was committed there wes one general outcry against Gov. King, who bad been janketiag bere for some duys, and should have known what was so openly plotted. He shifts it upon the Metropolitan Police Board, and they at once turn round and piace it upon the head of Superintendent Tallmadge. This gentleman comes out with a stropg card, and shows that he did all be was ordered to do, aod very suc cesstully shows that the responsibility on his part was stopped by another impersonal and ir- responsible board. The attempt to place the whole blame on the bead of Mr. Tallmadge, when he can act ouly upon orders from one side: and requisitions from the other, is an outrage which he is bound to resist in justice to bim- self. The true scurce of all this evil lies in the cor- rupt sytem of the administration of govera- ment. The public offices are filled through a system of bullying, shoulder hitting, brow beat. ing and bribery. Men are placed there who trade in power and plunder, as though autho- rity were given only to enrich them, aod the public treasury were nothing but the undivided stock of a bund of thieves. Fine houses are wrung from their subordinates; fast horses, gold watcbes and silver goblets are presented by their panderers; and the greed for spoil possosses every one in authority. It is not aione the miverable and inefficient Metropolitan Police and the Board of Health, that exhibit these evila Our city government stinks with ite own rottenness; our State organization is*une vast scheme of plunder from the canals downward, for tbe Thurlow Weeds of every section; acd our Jndiciary is destroyed by its ail pervading poiron. Against euch mass of misgovern- ment there is no defence except in the seuse o right and the public virtue of the peopic. It is no wonder that it breaks out, ae it has done in San Frencieco, New Orleans, and Staten Ietand and it will break everywhere where tneh practices as we witness here are tolerated The knaves that have bullied themseiv:s into power in our city and State are fast carrying ve into a position where revolution will be ou only remedy. The censure of an independent prese is their only “heck now, aud they are fae losing all fear of that. As for te threat of Gov. King tha! he wit govern an people hy the sword and the cann is nothing but a bree Iie dare not, in sober seriousnees, military to fice upon the whole psuple, ranged in cppomtion to the imbecility and the corrup: tion of wixgovernment. Aad, iftu 4 moment of phreney be should utter exch an order, troops who are drawn frou the people, and form # part of them, would not obey such an insane order, but would fraternize with the people. Let the out rag: ‘ulmen der the | volitiotans of sll parties look to thie question of the uprising of the people of Ricbmond county Tt coptuins a Jeeson for the men of all of thea, of every political opinion, It ie well for kowves in office to invoke the law; but no law will shelter them from the just iodignation ot an ineulted, pluudered and ontraged commu vity, whew the pubiic feeling is once aroused against them. Forney aND THE PRESIDENT—Seconp Parr or Jenemman’s Lamentations.—The political world is just vow having a great laugh over the Terrytown speech of Joha W. Forney, the discarded lackey of the administration. Like tae rervants whose mastern bave sent them adrift, Forney bas drawn upoo his imagination for his facts, avd has reported a converration with the President which never took place. In fact, it ecems that his whole epeech wasa pleasant little romance, gotten up tor the amusement of a few unemployed servants like himself. Forney’s ambition was both pecuniary and political. In the reign of poor Pierce he was grand high chamberlain and chief of the kitchen. By the most assiduous tosdyism he secured a certain amount of importance as an endorser of the ad- ministration. He was surrounded by a Kitchen Cabiuet, bungry, greedy aud unscrupulous: Tiwes were flush, and the Treasury was fall. There were no end of fat things, and the drip. pings of the Egyptian flesh pots were nothing in comparison with the clear grease of the White House pantry. Forney and the others plunged in up to their armpits, while poor Pierce got all the blame for the rapacity of his hangers-on, The feeling of the country turned against the master on account of the greedi- ness of his servants. For let it be known, that these cooks not only desired to rule below stairs, but also to dictate in the parlor and Cabinet. With a degree of pertinacity which no amount of snubbing could abash, and of impu- dence eurpassing the highest flights of Ferdi nand Count Fathom himself, Forney and his comrades succeeded to certain extent; at least they were able to overwhelm the adminis tration with a storm of ridicule and contempt which extended even to its paid officials. In- deed, the advocacy of Forney was supposed to have seriouely injured the prospects of Mr. Bu- chanan; the leaders of the democratic party ex- pecting from the covnection @ repetition of the Kitchen Cabinet scenes under poor Pierce, As urual, whea the cheese was all gone the rats de- verted the pantry, and began to smell around ibe sumptuous kitcben of the Wheatland sage. Forney had been apparently a faithful servant to Bucbanan. At any rate, he had tried to do bis best. No one could bave been more humble or more obsequiour. He, like other good dogs, wanted a bove, but leoked too high—he wanted @ Senate or a Cabinet cut, which was a little above him. So the poor dog quurrelicd with his master, and attempted to at Bot he was met with firmness, snd, like « well bred cur, who sees preparations on foot to kick him down stairs, he put his tail between bis legs and sneaked into the street. Hence this how! from Westchester. Hence this charge against the President. Of all things in the world the broken down politician is the most to be pitied, and eo we ask for a tear and @ penny or two to console Forney in his deca- dence. He, like Cardinal Wolsey, has ventured upon bladders, that have burst under him and swamped bim altogether. His case affords a melancholy lesson to the kitchen politicians of the land. He bad a good place—a coufortable upper cervant’s berth, with his little army con- tracts and Kaneas land speculations—but he must imitate the cow, avd kick over the pail that was beiug filled with milk. His dismissal was prompt, and came upon him like a thander- bolt; and he had no resource but to seek sym- pathy among other discarded serving men, who hoped to get better places by working for the republicans on less than board wages. They are not received, however, with great enthusiasm, and may yet find themselves political paupers, seeking in vain for a roof to cover themselves. As for Forney’s attacks upon the veracity of the President, they only prove how terribly the discharged servant feels the deprivation of the comfortable quarters given him by a too indul- gent master. While we cannot help laughing at them, yet our merriment is chastened by pity at the folly which goes about so claborately to encompass its own downfall. Foep Tur Warsinc or THe Quarantim: Trov- wis — We bope that the lesson afforded by the difficulties at Quarantine, which have led to the proclamation of martial law, will not be with- out its effect upon the people of New York city. They should learn from the outbreak at Quaran- tine that the odious misrule that bas been fastened upon us by smali politicians at Albany and eleewhere, will not be borne with pa- tience, and that the whole corrupt system by which men bay their way into power, and then abuse and plunder the pub- lic, must be cut up root and branch. Our people are patient, enduring, long euffer- ing, law sbiding; but there isa point beyond which forbearance ceaecs to be a virtue. When we ree men without moral principle, and alto gether destitute of the most ordinary quslifica- tions for office, elevated by corrupt primary elections and political chicanery to high places in the State and municipal governments—when we hear and read daily denanciations of them, levelled at their heads by the public and the independent pres#—we are prepared for troables more serious than thore which bave occurred at Quarantine. In point of fact, those troubles were the natoral result of the political corrup- tion of the day, and are only a forctaste of what we may expect in the future if the people do not rive in their might and inaugurate a new system, under which the only qualifications for local offices shall be the integrity and capability of the candidate, without the slightest regard for his political principles whataoever.
