‘RING AND JIG DANCING FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT OF THE FANCY. ‘The feasting of Faster Sunday among ‘‘dacent people” ‘ followed by sporting on Easter Monday. Why, is of Mitle consequence, but such is none the less the fact every gear, as regularly as Easter turns upon the calendar. Last Monday evening every sporting house in the city of any eminence had its “turn up,” snd ‘‘Hoym’s” was once more brilliant with the fancy. Harry Jennings, Jack Marriot, Jom McLaughlin and Barney Aaron were the principal caterers for the sporting public, The first three gentlemen are dealers in dog flesh; they catch rats and kill them; they bait coons and ‘attend to other “‘innocent amusements” consonant with the profession of which they aro brilliant ornaments, Barney hag no “establishment,” but claims a higher rank 3a the social life of the citizen, and is no mean adept in the profession of the “fistic art.’? Harry hange out in White and Madison streets On the most respectable occasions he rings in the public ‘to White street; but when the crowd is more noisy than brilliant, or expected 80 to be, Harry’s great yellow post- ers inform the fraternity that the entertainment fs to be the struggle for the ‘handsome ‘and slip’ commenced. The black and tan’s did their work, and Bill somebody took “ ’ome ‘the ’andsome”’ prize. During the evening y’s ‘mam- moth bear,’’ an ugly looking customer, was introduced, ‘and some game tried ly taking care of ‘and coon had their their tusks on bruia’s akin, wise. ‘lous jaw. The prairie wolf lon and turn, and were again MARRIOT’S EXHIBITION. ‘The Empire Hall, or Marriot’s exhibition, in Crosby ‘street, commenced with a ‘friendly shake’’ between two ferocious looking bull dogs. They had a very lengthened ‘tagging match, which ended in the usual way, by one of them refusing to “scratch.” The victor received “a splendid slip and collar,’’ which the “boss”? of the cham- Pion accepted with considerable satisfaction and pride. The ‘coon baiting” was the next part of the perform. ance. Coon baiting is something superior to dog fighting. ‘The innocent coon is boxed up in a wooden case, about eight feet long and sixteen inches deep; thatis his house, ‘and the dog who dares to enter that castle and “draw” out the occupant is unquestionably a smart dog, and by no means destitute of pluck. The fun, ‘sport,’ or whatever they call it, is not go much in “drawing” asin the unfor- funate attempts of the canino race to draw. A yelper rushing in with great demonstration of pluck, and returning with bis pendant drooping, and other signs of a discour- teous reception from the coon, were the constantly recurring = ave fmt gir poset ates hia kind of pithy pec 0 sports. The wi up part of the exhibition was ‘dovoted to rat killing against ae From some unexplainable reason ‘‘rats,” this Easter Monday, ‘were particularly scarce. About fifty only of the deatruc- tive vermin, instead of three times that number, were despatched—tho “black and tan’? making the best time, receiving another ‘‘ ’andsome collar.”’ ‘Marriot’s dog pit is considerably, in point of cleanliness, accomm mo and light, the first in rank in the city, THE UP TOWN EXHIBITION. McLavghlin’s affair, in First ayenue, was “ much of a wuchness” with that of cotemporaries in Crosby and Ma- dison. In addition to his killing and shaking, hehad on hand for matches Princey, the champion of 24 Ibs., ‘open to fight any dog in the world for $100 or $200; Crile, 44 ibe., for $100; Billy, 183¢ Ibs. or 19 lbs., for $100; Dick, of Newark; O’Brien’s Blinker; Nelson and Fan, of Btaten Island; Sailor, of Brooklyn, and “a host too numerous to mention.” Call that nothing! Dogs, rats, bears and Coons are great institutions on Easter Monday. BARNBY AARON’S SPARRING EXHIBITION. Notwithstanding other attractions for the “sports,” Young Barney had « splendid house. Barney stands high with the puge and their patrons; his benefit was a “bumper.” Professor Taylor and Trainer Sheppard were big names] and empty benches—last evening it was Bar- wey with a full house and “ the rocks” in his pockots, The sports opened with two “ young ’uns” having a few rounds, Their boyish reaching and jumping termi- nated, they gave place for Sam Freeman and Scotty, of Newark. They made a splendid set-to. Height, weight and fcience pretty. much equal. Sam, ever sensible of his caste, is the most modest professor on the boards. Scotty had the dd sense to appreciate Sam’s delicacy, and the bout between them ‘was a fine display of science without the ordinary rough . On leaving the stage they were loudly applaud- ed. light weights followed, gave their tedious quota, ‘and then vacated for the popular professors, Jonnny Aaron and Johnny Roche, who highly entertained the ‘spectators. ie Hei is the comedian of the fiatic arena, and an overflowing source of mirth. Badgor Hig- gins and Young Caffrey bad a few rounds, in the third of which Badger was thrown flat on the boards. ‘The follow- ing round Badger tried to retrieve his honor, but Badger ‘was once more on the boards. THE JIG DANCING. By way of diversity tothe entertainment, Barney so- cured the services of Hank Mason and Mickey Warren, two famous jig dancers. This waa decidedly the most rational part of the evening. After Mickey and Hank bad each his jig, Johnny Aaron and Johnny Sweetman joined, and the four had ‘a regular Virginny breakdown. Goo pugs seemed to be as much at home with thelr feet as their fista, and the spectators, with all their roughness, were particularly nice in keeping order, and nursed their spplaure to the end, when they went it with right good will, and ‘ brought down the house,” THE SPARRING RESUMED. ‘The company was informed by ‘Father Tovee’—the master of ceromonies—that the celebrated Young Moli- neux would setto with Johnny Sweetman ; but on the occasion of a forthcoming benefit he would spar with Sam Freeman, and on that occasion he would ask no favors. ‘This language being next to challenge, Molineux was loudly cheered on entering. The sot-to between Sweet. man and Molineux was highly entertaining to tho fancy. It was heavy and emart hitting, as thick as they could lay iton. Freeman, to be upsided with his colored brudder, came on to the stage a second time with the gloves on, and tho master of ceremonies rewurned Sam’s defi to Molineux, ‘and expressed the satisfaction it would give him to have the set-to alluded to. The spectators were vociferous in ‘their applause, and called for it there and then; but the treat was reserved for another exhibition, and Sam set-to with Mike Trainor. This was followed by a spirited ect-to between Dan Kerrigan and Hoare, and the final wind up ‘between Johnny Aaron and Barney Aaron. Their display @f science was very fine. The forthcoming exhibition and set-to between Moli- noux and Freeman was all the tsik after the exhibition. It will unquestionably draw a crowded house. If Sam is to be half of the attractions, his friends object to his ap- ing without the assurance of half of the proceeds—no- ‘bing ut fair . Unless Molineux agrees to this, Sam’s friends hold out tbat he must not to appear. ANOTHER WALKING MATCH. Adams, the great pedestrian, who was unsuccessful in his great feat of walking four miles in thirty minutes, last ‘Thursday, is again matched by the same backer for the game feat for $500 a side.

Williamsburg City News, Cyarcr or Extortion.—On Friday last Mre. Pary Lyons, residing at 248 South Second street, made & complaint against Dr, Erastus Wilson, a dentist residing at 31 Bond stroot, New Yerk, for rape, allegod to have been committed on the 22d of February. On Saturday the dentist was @rested, and tho ex- amination postponed till to-morrow. Subsequently Dr. ‘Wilson was advited to settle it with ber, as she had etated that she would take moucy to settle \t, and dxod upon the sum of $100. Dr. Wilson, on considering the subject, agreed that if he could settle tho matter with ber he would do 80 rather than go to trial and have the publication of the affair injure his business. Accordingly he for @ con- sideration induced hor to decline to appear on Friday, ‘and thus let the matter drop. She agreed to this, rome money waa paid, and a paper was drawn up on his part by which she agreod to withdraw her complaint and ee ‘no other, and in case ebe was oF shoul Prove to enceinte, sho would only hold him reaponsibie for the physician's bill, On Wednesday Dr. Wiison proforred a complaint before Justice Fox, charging her with attempt. to extort money from bim by having preforrod a charge of rape against him.

M.,a little better than‘four;days from Aspinwall, She is to leave early this morning if the clerk of the agents of this line obtained permission last evening from our Right Rev. Bishop for the steamer to have her coals put on board. As it is holy time wo do not lift our neighbors up out of the ditch if we can help it. ‘We are in the midst of our most solemn Christian feati- valof the year—going through with the formula of the Saviour three days in the tomb, but not quite honest in the transaction, as we discount one-third of the time, according to the sacred traditions: from Thursday morning atten o’clock to Saturday same hour, makes but forty- eight hours, instead of seventy-two. The churches and streets are thronged with well garnished humanity—most bewitching looking sinners—but it was painfal to observe the small numbers that could be accommodated in the cathedral church of San Carlos, on account of the im- mense dress embodimente—some not less than three varas diameter across the waving curve, about twelve inches from the centre of the conjugate axis of the com- Position, so that in dropping upon the floor thero was inevitable confusion, orerapping and inconvenience, which disturbed the prayerful minds, if any there were. The Bishop officiated on Palm Sunday. General Concha in state assisted, with all his department, chiefs and staff atthe cathedral. The services, of course, were august and interesting. Palms were brought in cart loads as to quantity, in ys upon the heads of negroes—were sprinkled with holy water and dispered throughout the city among the faithful, to keep evil from their homes, or from their hearts, as may bo. ‘The city is quiet; no nolse, save the chattering of flattened vanity, and the discordant Tattle which assumes the duty of the silent bells. It isa delicious experience, this change from the noise and mo- tion of active industry to listless indolence and death-like silence, the death part. Ihave not had time to go and see the Saviour epee in his tomb, under the guard of the centurions; but Iam informed that the ser- vice is performed with the samo rueful image as last year, and in the same ornaments and designs, It does me no ,and therefore am I glad that Ido not havo to Jook upon the sad mimic Seon. General Goincourta passed through this harbor in the Cahawba. He did not care to visit the shore, Since then several stories have been circulated in relation to military and expeditionary movements that Icannot find a shadow of foundation for. Consul General Helm and his family left by the Cahawba, on the 18th inst. , for New Orleans, on his way to Newport, Ky., where he resides. He will be absent from his post a month. The captains of United States trading vessels in port met the Consul General at the wharf, when he was about embarking, and with a fleet of boats—sailors neatly dressed, and star spangles flouting the breeze—escorted him along side the Cahawba. The captains passed on board, wished him a pleasant voyage and a speedy return to the post which he go ably filled. The impromptu was & surprise, happily designed and executed; the compli- ment was appropriate; and no one, through jealousy or posse ripe ae motive, took exception to the civility ex- led.

On the 7th inst., the Spanish line-of-battle-ship Reina Isabel Segunda sailed for Spain, according to the papers but she has gone to Toulon to be converted into a pro- r. Lacey @ paragraph in a copy of the Henan, received por Cahawba, to the effect that certain Spanish spies are in your city. Ihave reason for the belief that some of them are from this island; so let any of the creoles in New York who have thoughts of returning to Cuba be guarded as to the presence in which they give utterance to their political sentiments. You will be amused in perusing an editorial article in the Diario de la Marina of the 16th inst., which boasts of the regeneration of the Spanish navy and of the wonderful achievements It is intended it shall perform. I need scarcely inform you that this is Holy Week. The Belen church, now in the posession of the Jesuits, pre- rented 2 spectacle last evening which, for exquisite taste and brilliancy, I have never seen equalled, not to say sur- passed, It is at prosent one of our fashionable churches. The brig W. M. Grotten, of Jacksonville, Florida, sailed Inst Monday for tho Portuguese island of St. Tomo, on the coast of Africa, and the brig Lillie Mills cleared two days since for St. Pablo de ido. There is not any legal proof of the fact, but no moral doubt exists that both these vessels have gone to the coast of Africa for cargoes of slaves. A part of the cargo of the Lillie Mills consists of a large quantity of wooden spoons, Except a brisk demand for sugars for tho. Spanish markets there has been little doing in our sugar market during the week. No alteration in rates has taken placo since my last advices. Both holders and purchasers await the next Intelligence from Europe, which will fix the cur- rent rates after tho clogo of the holidays. The atock here and at Matanzas is about 280,000 boxes, against 230,000 boxes at this period last year. In muscovado sugars no change can be advised. Advices from Cardenas, received last evening, state there had not been a single sale effected there during the week. The last sales reported were at 1M to8 per arrobe for refining, and 8% to 83 ri for ‘good grocery kinds,’’ The stocks at Cardenas are reported at 6,743 bhds. and at about 12,000 hhds. at the principal outports. Molasses continues unchanged in rates at outports, although a sale of clayed is reported here, to be placed alongside a vessel in this harbor, at 3‘ reals per keg of 53, gallons, cights—Owing to the proximity of the holida: engagements have taken place during the week. terial change in rates has taken place. Exchanges have again improved a little. I quote ster- ling 1234 per cent premium; New York 60 day bills, par to 4 per cent premium; New Orleans, short, 1}¢ to 2)4 per cent premium. ‘The Fioods on the Mississipp!. [From the Cincinnati Gazette, April 25.) Our latest advices in regard to the high water in the lower Mississippi are of an alarming character, From the officers of the steamer Monarch wo learn that the nume- Tous crevasses have resulted in the overtiow of large tracts of the lower country, and the destruction of stock, crops and improvements to an almost incalculable amount. From Memphis down, tho river is described as spreading on either hand like a sea, and the marks of desolation are everywhere visible. Scores of plantations and vill are either overflowed or renderod almost uninhabitable by the mould with which the surrounding moisture has covered every bt ee 4 The houses which are built on pillars, thus suffering tho water to run freely beneath, are atill occupied. Flatboata are usually moored to such habitations, which serve the double purpose of stables for the cattle and quarters for the negroes who guard them. The anxiety to learn the news from above cting the water is described as intense, and the people exhibited great depression on being told that the upper rivers were still rising. at Helena the leveo has successfully kept the town from overflow. big is also well protected, the le- ‘yoos along both the Miseissippt and Arkansas rivers being in good condition; the water, however, keeps fillod the low grounds in therrear of the place, The graveyard on the banks of the Arkansas, and between tho river and the levee, is submerged, and the gravestones and monu- ments just peeping above the flowing waters. At lake Providence the water is excluded, but the town is muddy and extremely damp and nojsome, At Vicksburg the water is sixteen inches higher than during the flood of last year, 80 that the steamers tio up “check by jowl’ with the houses, some of the awnings of which they havo knocked down, It will be remembered that Vicksburg stands opon a very high bank.

After the examination, Harden asked the privilege of stating what he knew about her case, and said that she had taken poison, as she stated to him—about 6 0’clock in the morning—giving as # reason the difference be- tween her mother and ; which circumstance he was Rot to reveai except to save his own life. This statement impressed all present that he was guilty of the act him- self, and his friends told him he had cut his own throat; lyin which he immediately made arrangements to make his escape, and ® person to take bim that night to the railroad, putting on a suit of drab clothes and an oilcloth , Which this person purchased for him. About one week from that night he preached for a minis- ter somewhere on the line, stating that he was a young minister who had been preaching about two years at Andersontown, New Jersey—that his health had failed, and he had been travelling in Canada for the be- nefit of his health and was now on his way home. He stated that he had been robbed of his etbook con- taining about $70, and wished the minister to state his case and raise some money for him, which he did, and goven persons gave him $l each. They had some suspi- cion that all was not right, or they would probably haye | given him more; go this minister stated in a letter ho wrote immediately to the Postmaster where Harden had resided, inquiring into the truth of his statements. Upon the receipt of this letter a person was despatched in pur- suit of him, and at the last accounts from him he was on his track and had gained two days. It rs ag oe that a person at the house where Harden ‘board had bought some arsenic a ehort time ago, and had used part of it for destroying rats, and’the remainder was in a vial upon the shelf in the house, labelled arsenic or poigon. Upon examining the vial since, it was discovered that the arsenic had been taken out and the same quantity of flour put in its place. It ia supposed he had given her part of the contents cf this vial, causing her first sickness, which corresponds with the opinion of the jury of physiclang—that ehe had taken poison more than once. Harden was not a minister in fall standing in the church, but had been on trial. At one time his application was refused, but by devoting himself very faithfully as a col- porteur, and visiting much, he finally succeeded in making ‘a favorable impression, and upon a second effort was licensed by the quarterly Conference to preach. ‘We give these statements as wo find them current in the neighborhood.

We note again that breadstuffs were firm, and that wheat | was tending upwards. Should this, be occasioned by any unfavorable crop prospects abroad, a marked impetus would be imparted to our market, The cotton market bad been unfavorably affected by the news from the Continent, but trade at Manches- ter, which has been depressed of late, was looking better. ‘There is nothing very new in our stock market.

It begins to be surmised that the President is not averse to bringing matters to a crisis by forcing a foreclosure of the road. Whether he would by this means help the holders of the fourth mortgage which he negotiated, a careful perusal of the act of 1863 will enable the anxious to determine, Whatever his motive may be, however, certain it is that the policy he is pur- suing—which appears to be dictated by pare spite against the Central—will in all probability prevent the Erie earn. ing this year even that small proportion of her interest | which she bas hitherto paid. It scems high time for the stock and bond holders in this uo fortunate concern to inquire how long their | officers are to persevere in a policy which can result in nothing but ruin, There is a better demand to-day for several of the Western stocks.

First class names can obtain any amount of money at five per cent, and it is casy to borrow at the same rate on favorite securities on call, with a fair margin. The market is quite dull, and many people anticipate that four per cent will be the common figure. Foreign exchange is fully up to the specie mark, and Ct ‘the gold exports are large and likely to be heavy until August or September, they have yet no un- favorable effect upon the money market. Boston stands | onugually well at this moment, with exchange with New York strongly in her favor. She is thus insured against any immediate disturbance from lack of specie. The bank holding, indeed, has recently shown some increase, and is now about six and three quarter millions. The Legislature of Massachusetts at its last session’ passed a law requiring — 1. That no certificate of stock shall be issued by any corporation named in the first section of 98th chapter of the Laws of 1843, concerning which returns of shares are required to be made to assessors, until the purchaser shall have informed said corporation of his actual place of resi- dence; and upon the issuing of such certificate the corpo- ration shall register the name and residence of the pur- chaser, &c. And the fourth section of said act imposing a penalty of one hundred dollars in each case whore a cor- poration shall neglect to comply with the requirements of the act, it will become the duty of officers of corporations recording transfers of shares to require the actual resi- dence of persons to whom stock shall be transferred, ‘We read in the Cincinnati Commercial :— The new tax Jaw, passed on the Sth {net. by the late Legislature, contains one or two important clauses differing from previous acts. That which will excite most attention is that clause subjecting Ohio State stocks. Hitherto these have been exempt. Un- der the new act the State saya to ite domestic credi- tora, ‘we borrow of you at six per cent per annum, and charge you one per cent and upwards for the privi- lege.” This, it seems'to us, is unfair to those who in- prior to the passage of the act, and will tend to depreciate the value of the stocks in the ratio of the per centum of taxation, and will give foreign holders a decided advantage over our own citizens. “Another change upon. railroad corporations. Under the former law road beds were taxed ag reality. Under the new act they come under the head of personalty. Whether this will make any difference, or what that difference will be to the parties taxed, we havo not bad time to consider.
