8 NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 1859. City Intelligence. ‘ ‘Werarnen, Trave., &c.—Yesterday was a delightful @ay. Old ‘Sol’ shone beautifully,and the atmosphere ‘partook of the mildness and geniality of spring. Broad- ‘way was in a cleanly condition, and from an early hour ‘in the forenoon until supset was thronged by gayly and fashionably dressed belles and beaux. The dry goods palaces wore well patronized by nimbie shoppers, many of whom were conveyed hither and thithor in richly de- corated carriages, attended by liveried servants attired in every conceivable style of eq »» The various city railroad aud omnibus lines were well ; the for- mer at times were 80 overcrowded and badiy ventilated ‘as to make it uncomfortable to their patrons. The trains on the various lines of railroads converging towards the city brought large numbers of subarbvans, who no doubt improved the opportunities offered tor a pleasant visit i the city on account of the mild weather. New York Stave Arsevat.—The ruins of this once im- mense edifice, at the corner of Thirty-{ifth etreet and Seventh avenue, remain in pretty much the same condi- tion they did the morning aiter the roof and walls taum- ‘Died in, a few months ago. Nothing remains of the build- ing but three immense towers—two of them on Seventh avenue, and the other one on Thirty-fifth street, b sides rtions of the wall of the first two stories. The practica- Pity of constructing an edifice of such ponderous dimen. ion’ as this, with brick and mortar for the principal material, was questioned from the time the contract Was awarced; and the safety of the strncture when nearly completed was doubted by experienced in gequcnee of introducing a new mechani experig thy constracuion af its roof, viz: sapporting it with 5 tre colum edifice, from the time its exterior was finished, semaiued ao unsightly mass until the roof and Htecturat isfellin.

Tae Cry Haw Fine Tececxarn Cor orr.—Yesterday afternoon the telegraph iastruments which connected with the wires between the City Hall and the police head- quarters, and used for communicating Bre alarms, were removed by Superintendent Charles Robinson, the pa, tentee, in consequence, it is alleged, of the refusal of Mayor Tiemann to compensate bim for their use. For the Tast two years these justruments have been in constaut use, feo of charge to the city, Mr. R. receiving but a momival sum for supermtending their operation, When the telegraph was stationed at tbe City Hall, by resolution of the Common Cocneit, it was understood taat Mr. R, should be paid a specific 8um of mouey for this service, in addition to his compensation for operating the police telegraph. his has not been done, however, as per agreement; hence the summary measures above men- tioned have beeo adopted. ‘This temporary suspension of Setecraphic communication is severely felt, both by the firemen aud the reporters of the press. ‘Tax Sreammoat C, Vaxversunr.—This veeeel, which is ashore on Fisher Island, Long Island Sound, it is thought will be got afloat in afew days. Captaiu Bennett, who bas the superintendence of the work, has a number of experienced wreckers employed in the process to float the Vanderbilt, The hull is 80 badly damaged as to render the hope of repairing it out of the question. If it can be kept afloat long enongh to enable the wreckers to save part of the damaged cargo and the Vanderbiit’s engines, it wil be all they expect to accomplish, Should the anti cipations of Captain Bennett be accomplished, viz.: of float ny the Vanderbilt, she will be towed into New Lon doo or Stonington. This, however, will depend much on the state of the weather. She will be taken to the lattor pluce if peseih'e. The Plymouth Boek will fill the place of the Vanderbilt in the Stonington line on Tuesday next. Pare ACCIUENT—CARELESSNESS OF A Hose ComPany.— Ou Tucsday afternoon a moat painful accident occurred at the corner of Bighth avenue and Thirty-second street, by which a young aud beautiful bride sustained injaries that Will maim her for life. It appears that she was about alighting from a railroad car, when a bose company, with their apparatos, were going to a fire, and were ruanlag imme itwtcly bebiud the car; the conductor rang the beil to stop the car; the driver instuntly applied the breaks ‘With great force, causing the car to stop instantly; before the hose company could check the impetus of tue! ratus, its tongue struck the lady ta the left bre entered it in a diagonal direction to the depta of thelie, besides lacerating some of her fingers so that Amptutation will ve deemed necessary. The lasy had the pu Professor Mitchel on the Planetary System. The Academy of Music was again filled last evening, 00 the occasion of the second lecture in the course of astro- nomy being delivered by Professor Mitchel, of the Cincin- ati Observatory, and every seat was occupied precisely at half-past seven. Mr. Bradish, after aunouncing that tho next lecture would take place on Friday next, intro- duced Professor Mitchel}, to the audience. The Professor, after apologising for his probable incom- petency to make himself fully heard all over the house, in consequence of a had cold, eaid that he had attempted previously to exhibit the train of reasoning by which the mind of man had passed through an investigation of the great laws which govern"the physical universe. Whilo contemplating the wonders of the heavens, the question naturally arose: are these worlds governed by any law? It did not follow that there must be law. Who could predict the coming of the wind or the changes of temperature? True, there might be laws go- verping these; but, as yet, the mind of man could not comprehend them, Were they certain, then, that there were any laws governing the phenomena of the vast concave of space? Yes; they were the laws of motion, and the mighty law of universal gravitation. He wouid direct their attention to an examination of our special system. There were revolving worlds around our central sup, aad awong these was our planet, and its revolving moon. Was the mind of manable to solve the great problem cf the planetary system? Could it go back to the past movements of these bodies and predict their future course’ Yes. It had been done, and it could be done; and he pro: posed to exhibit some of the peculiar triumphs of the miat Of Tan in this great investigation. First, he would con- sider the law of gravitation, a8 compared with the laws oi motion, The law of gravitation is, “every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle of matter with a force which varies directly as the mass of the attracting body, and inversely with’ the square of the distance. ith’ a knowledge of the laws of motion and of xravita- tion it became possible for the mind of man to bring to its aid the marveilous machinery for the purpose of eon- ducting this great investigation—the infuuitessimal analy sis, With data for any one of the revolving worlds we could determine its exuct locality at any time in the past or future. Suppose the gun to be assigned @ piace in space, with a given quantity of matter, its distance from a planet is known, aud the weight of the planet is as- sumed, Give to the planet an impulsive force, whose in- tensity is Known, seized by the attracting power of the stn, itis bent from the straight line whieh it would have kept, and circulates in an orbit around the san, The character of this orbit is controtled by the direction of the sun, whether it be circular, elliptical, a parabola, or a by hola. if here was no other planet in the system, the one planet would follow the same track century after cen- tury, repeating the same identical orbit. Starting out from the sun m the direction of the son's equator, at 36,900,000 of miles we cross the orbit of the nearest planet, Mer- cury; at 65,000,800 miles we cross the orbit of Venus; at 95,000,000 we cross the earth’s orbit; at 142,000,000 we cross the orbit of the planet Mars; at 250,000,000 we reach the wondrous asteroids, multiplying under the infinitesimal gaze of the modern telescope; at 485,- }0,000 miles we reach the orbit of the planct ‘Jupiter, with its four moons, Still deeper into space, at the distance of $90,000,000, we come to the wondrous Saturn, filing the mind with amazement. At 3,800,000,000 of miles we come to Uranus, and doubling this cistanca we stand upon the outskirts ‘of our mignty system, and see the latest discovered, though the first—the great Senti- nel planet. How were all these located in space? How were these erbits coustractea? What were the quantities of matter which belonged to them? How did they influence each other? Were they revolving harmoniousiy, or were they producing discordance, perturbations, troubles and changes, tenuing ultimately to destraction? ‘These probiems had been solved. If the sun bad uo effect upon the earth and moon, the earth being Ube only one with the monn, the same track would be aiways pursued; bat the earth was at one point in the moon's orbit dragged to- ward the sun and at another point away from it, so that te earth staggered in its course, producing # double curvat Thus the earth’s orbit was enlarge neayed the sun, and the rapidity of it® revolugion incre: Jn the periietion portion of its orbit the earth 11 attracted the moon with a more powerful indae thus the moou was perpetualiy changing its orbit.

Foxx iy Wore Sreeer.—Between three and four o'clock on Wetneslay morning 9 fire was discovered in the cellar under the grocery store kept by Christopher Burmester, No. 34 White street. The early atteption of the firemea confined the flame lar, where it originated. The fire was subsequently found to have originated amongst gome empty barrels. The cellar door waslett unfast ana the fire is supposed to have been the act of an diary. Mr. Burniaeter bas an insarance of $1,000 on his stock of groceries In the New Amsterdam Insuran pany. No water in the store, and no damage to the stock. Fire x t Forrteevma Street —At a little before 9 o’clock last night (Wednesday) an alarm of fire originated from the residence of C. Godfrey Gunther, No. 145 East Fourteenth street. The firemen were promptly at the premises, but the fire was extix ed by the persona in the house. ‘Ie steam fire engine Jubn G. Siorm was oa the ground, but its services were not needed. It appears tbat there Was 4 children’s family party at Mr, Gunther's house, and that evon aiter the Coristmas tree was lighted up one of the boys accidentally pushed it against wwe win éow curtains, which immediate'y ignited. The curtains were pulled down and the fire quickly extinguisbed with afew pails of water. Mr. Charles Guniher immediately closed the doors of the parlor, and thus Kept the fire con- fines to the dining room and prevented confusion among 8 to the the children.

If sbe or any ovher planet is resist- e¢—we know not when it may be—but it must come to pass if this approach continues, that they will be launched > Le Sun and be destroyed forever, Yet there had lived @ man who bad solved this problem, and La Place, by the mighty power of, bis genius, and by the strengtl of his aualysi¢, announced to the world the solution, stating that it Was owing to the law of universal gravitation. All the planets combined to change the figure of the carth’s orbit, yet the periodic time of the earth was the same now as it always had been and would be. The | Sgure of the carth’s orbit was changing, and in the course of five hundred thousand years woud become exactly cireular. The increased velocity of the moon wos due to this fact, because the earth, growing further from the sun, Felzes the moon away from the sun. When the earth's orbit becomes exactly circular it stops, aut slowly stocontract agéin, aad thus expanding and con- rg 'h perioos of ime so tremendous that the mind hn cannot by possibility grasp them, and ke a mighty pendulum bung up tn the heavens, beating for us jlere mal dunizens of earth the soleam seconds of eter- | nity itself. (Applause) Could man doubt the immortality of fig soul with these evidences of illtmitable existence? ‘© could net stop in considering this wonderful n-ogress ubtit we reached the idea of Omnipotence itgelf. Man had | Rheright fo investigate this matter, and God bad let down this wondrous chain, link after link, whereby mau might upward and upward, nearer and still nearer, to the rone of God's omnipotent power. (Sensation. ) There was not a solitary fixed orbit in the whole savens; avd if they were all expanding, contracting, and changing, could it come to pase that the planets could, by any possibility, be destroyed? Now, there was one point in | the orbit which never remained tixed. It was perpetually advancing in the direction of the planet. In the case of th 11,000 years would pass away before this point ole round the san; in Jopiter it would be 80,000 | years; in Saturn 200,000 years; yet these changes did not ot the plonets materially, apd might continue without mage. The changing of the nodes would bave nothing do with the weil being of the planet. We find, by in- vestigation, that these changes in the orbit bave a limit, and Liat if the change in the inclination of the orbit should pass a certain limit, destruction must certainly follow. Omniecience bad fixed the himit; and theee mighty planets, miles and miles away, were controlled by law. Tiow was it with regard to the masses of the planete, their magnitude and distance? They varied materially. If Jupiter could be made to revolve in the orbit of Venus, cestruction would ensue; for Omniscience had given to all the worlds the precise position in which they must be placed. It had been found, in watebing Topter and Saturn, that the periodic time of these two bodies had been changing. Five of Jupiter's periods would be sixty years,and five of Saturn’ Kis would be about the me, but not exactly. *hea they both came ther near the same point the one attracted the other, and by this litte variation the evils which would other- wise result w revented—such was the wisdom of the Crestor, Let profane man exclaim, “I could have ercatcd a better universe; but ecience taught that God's ‘was the best; His wondrous scheme is perfected: in all voniplexity there is equilibrium. How was it possible that these wondrous changes, requiring 26,000,000 years in working out, bad been traced to the law of universal gravitation? Yet it had been done, Again, was there Lot a fear tbat the equatorial projection of the earth would increase, until the whole mass should fly asunder? No; for as m'glit be seen by the appearance of the water ina revolving Vase, Ye curvature of the plane would remain ‘ixed after the maximum velocity had been reached, Saenee hed looked out apon the perturbations of the planet Uranue, and, standing upon the narrow basis of vinitessimal analysis, bad said, behold! there is another world; and the recope Was pointed to the spot, and there was the world ! ‘ on, oF this city, preached for the Old choo! terians in the Hail of the House of Represen- tatives, in Harrisborg, Pa., on Sunday, the 16th instant.

LECTURE BEFOBE THE GILLETTE YOUNG MEN’S A8S0- OTATION. At eight o’clock last evening a conmderahle number of ladies and gentlemen assembled in the Calvary Baptist church, West Twenty-third street, to hear a lecture on ‘Lafayette, from the Hon, Josiah Quincey, Jr., ex-Mayor of Boson. The audience was not so large as was antici- pat “, in consequence of the other popular lectures which were delivered elsewhere last evening; but a sufficieut number of the friends of the association were present to show that there was great interest felt in the interesting theme gelected for the edification and instruction of the society. The lecturer began by eulogiaing the character of La- fayette—a man, the like of whom the world has seldom seen. His services to the revolutionists, in the dark hour of their struggle for freedom and independence, formed the firet part of the lecture, the honorable gentleman classifying all the weil known historical incidents in the begipning of the War of dence in a clear, distinct and intelligible manner. He was the representative of European freedom—a man whose whole life was spent in the sacred cause of human liberty. The lecturer had had the honor, in the of aide de-camp, of at- tending on General Lafayette duripg his triampbant jour- ney through the land he had helped to liberate, aud bad beep an eye witness of the enthusiasm and delight with which he was met everywhere. His exertions for Ameri- can independence were generally and thankfully ackuow- ledged and recognized by the nation, and, in the words of Jeflerson, he was termed tho Atlas of the Revolution. 1 conduct Was not so much that of the young soidier thirst- pg for glory as tbat of tae patriotic and devoted citiaen, He received the thanks of Congress, and his name became a cherished treasure to the whole American people, The lecturer proceeded to recount several [ucts illustrative of Lafayette’s love for freedom, and spoxe particularly of Lis veneration for the tri-color, whose colors he wore as the ensign of union and ‘liberty. On the 14th ef July, 1790, on the Field of Mars arose a magnificent aitar—the bighest and the lofucst ever erguved. Two hundred priests, in white surplices, were thére, and Lafayette with thirty thousand deputies, aad aiid the plaudits of balf a million of beings, to consecrate and lift up the folds of the tri-color—the lag of constiva tional freedom. There, too, the soldier and tho patriot tock the catbs of fidelity and allegiance, renouncing ait the otters of wealth and power which were made to him. In 1792 the foreign wars began, and Lafayette found him self at the head of fitty thousand men; but the Reiga of Terror soon commenced, and in the horrors of that even'- ful ume be had to bend to the storm and ily train France, He was pursued and taken, and when he refused to be- come a traitor to his country he was handed over to the Prussian government and ‘ignominously placed in dun- geons, Bence he was taken and transferred to Austria; Dut instead of being benelitted by the change he was again cust into prigon, and told that he should never again see apy thing but the four walls of his dungeon. The lec- turer then graphically degeribed the sufferings of tue jlustrions prisoner from confinement, bad air and fo and the other evils of 4 protracted imprison jt. ‘The result of such cruel treatment was that his health ited, and the conrt of Vienna, touched by remorse, per- mitted bin to lave his dungeon and to take exercise. Every attempt to procure his liberation proved a fatini ‘The éloquence of Fox, Tarleton and Wilberforce were ex: pended in bis behalf in vain; and the iuterposivioa of Washington himself was entirely uvayailing and futile. But the man of destiny soon came, and after berring bis ¢agles triumphantly through the blood of many a bate field, he hombied the Austrian and brought liberty to the hero. He was indebted to Napoleon for his life aud free dom; but to the desire of the conquerer that he should again join in the Senate of France and share in the efforts for the good of the country, he turned a deaf ear; and be even—although gratitude called upon bim to serve Naypo- leon—voted against him for perpetual Consul, and retired to the privacy of La Grang rt ance was, however, approac States bad always taken great interest gress. of the French nation, aud they had seen him in exile and in prison; they had geen himarmed,as it were with a frame of iron, and they had seon it melt gradually away; they had seen the most princely offers made to him, and they bad seen him refuge them. He bad shown himself worthy oftheir honor, aud of the ttle of the adopted son of Washington—which the Father of his country had himgelf bestowed upon hiti—by his unwea- vering love of liberty and free institutions. He was in the words of Milton “faithful found—among the ua- faithtvl, taithful only he.” The lecturer then procoeded fo relate & number of interesting facts counected with Lafayette’s return to the country, afver an absence of forty years, and the enthusiasm ‘and rejoicings with which he was met on al} sides. His progress through the Union was unparalleled. It was ove uuauimous trans- port, He refused a government vessel aud came on ina packet ship, His return was like a resurrection from the dead. Millione who welcomed him were not ia existences when he was fighting on the samo soil for Americad Jiverty. The pageants on that occasion need nat be described. There were triumphal arches and ioscriptions, Hite the first night in Massachasetts, wih Governor Eustace. Among the iligs that were hung out was one with an inscription by Sprague, the bauker poet, and but few who read it did not lift up'their voice and weep, In substauce it ran thus:— ‘The fathers in glory shall sleep With others who fell in the fiabt, But the ¢ons shall perpetually keep The tablet of liberty bright. We bring thee no trophies, We bend not the kuee, But our hearts, Lafayette, are surrendered to thee. The lecturer then alluded to Lafayette’s second visit to Cambridge, and the ease with which he recogoized Mrs. Hancock after forty years had passed. At Cambridge Edward Everett delivered a brilliant oration in presence of the distinguis! Joho Quincy Adams, at the desire of Congress, also prouounced a ciiogium upon his character, speaking of him in the highest terms ot honor and reepect, Atone time Congress wanted to make him agrant im money ot $200,000 und several acres of land; but thirty-six members voted against it, ant afterwards they waited on the General and told him that though they were as anxious a8 auy one to serve him and reward him for big faiuifal services to the republic, still they believed that the matter was beyond the power of Congress, aud for that reason they had to vote against it. Lafayette re- plied that if he tad been their associate it was more than likely tbat there would have been thirty-seven instead of thirty-six, against it, for the Americans had already done too much for him. The lecturer gave some interesting statements concerning an attempt to liberate Lafayette while in the Austrion prison, and how the plan failed. In his progress throughout America on his secood visit his path was literally covered with ‘roses; hosts of old me came to shake hands with hua, and hosts of babies were brought to bim to ve kissed. In after years he (the lec turer) was taken to task by a young and handsome bride as to whether he had ever kissed her sister. He was astopisbed, but as he nad no recollection of such a thing be wanted to perform the operation then, that he might be able to answer in the uffirmative for the future. The young beauty would not congent, bat told him that her Sister had off in his pro- They had écen him misleading the military power ed us a baby while Lafayette was going through the country, and it had been said that while he shook the old men’s bands his aid-de-camp performed the kissing of the babies. (Laughter.) The rer then passed on to speak of the closing of Lafayette’s life, which were spent at La Grange. He died on the 20th of May, 1854, and was bared with military honors. No monument tells of the part he took for the ey, of America; and although a subscription was taken up here for the ercetion of an equesirian monument in Paris, the French goverument refused to give the necessary perm’ sion, lest the name of Lafayette suould conjure up a spirit that’ would topple Napoleon from his throne. ‘The lecture abounded with interest, which this sketch can but imperfectly convey.
