After the reading by the Secretary of the minutes of tho ‘aot reguiar and special meetings, the Chamber balloted ®r new members, and elected the following named :— Garies E Baring, Stephen W. Carey, Caled F. Landsiey, Jobo Riley, Riward A. Stansbury, Lucius J. N. Stark. ‘Mr. Robert Gordon was elected a member of the Commit- ‘te on Arbitration, A communication was received from the Hou. Lewis Secretary of State, in answor to one sent by the ‘@bamber in relation to the establishment of lighthouses ou the British side of the Bahama Banks, Tae Secretary dmformed the Chamber that their communication had been seferred to Mr, Dailas, the United Stats Minister at Lon. @ua, to invite the attention of the Bridsh goverument. A communication was read, seat by the American @amber of Commerco at Liverpool, in relation to ho abuses of seamen on shipboard. Thoy had veason w beliove, from letters and reports of the ‘onsuls of cases that have occurred from time to time on board vessels arriving in Liverpool, would not only con- vey information a8 to those advices, but would als die. thee culur cases, and recominend that measures be ‘ken to remedy the evil im future. Referred to the Ex. svutive Commitiee. ‘Mr. BLoxT presented @ petition, numerously signed by ‘war principal merchants, and to the President af the United States, with a view to apply to the appro- priate governments to erect lighthouses oa the north coast of South America and on the northeasterm entrance 1 ‘the Caribbean Sea. The district alluded to abounds with tanmense reefs, and has but two lighthouses over a line of wo hundred and forty miles. On motion, the President @f whe Chamber was authorized to aifix bis signature to ‘@e petition. ‘The discussion of the subject of collisions at sea, which {tas been before the Chamber for the last three or four pears, was then — ‘up. The PREaDENT understand that this motion was to Rave been reported on by the chairman of the com maitee (Mr. Brower), who had this matter under oon- sideration; but in consequence of his unavoidable ao: gence, in attending the tuaeral of a friend, he supposed & would have to lay over until the noxt meeting. Rosgrt B. Mixtvry moved that the Committee on Col- Baions be instructed tH open & currespoadeuce wth the Qhamber of Commerce of Liverpool, acknowledging the Peoeipt of a communication trom that body on the sab- of collisions. This ne thought would encourage them ‘the endeavors to sul) work anti! the accomplishinent of ‘ce great that the step proposed to be Rovar Pars " e_step_pri taken was entirely unnecessary. The Chamber of Com merce of Liverpool, iv the communication to them, fully concurs with their yews, and to ave tme and uuneces- sary correspondence, the beter way would be to present the matter fully before the proper soarce—the general government—in order to have the laws changed. Mr. Purr stated that the Liverpool Chamber of Com- merce fully coincided with the views entertuned by them. ‘They look upon the late decisions in the British Admuraity Ovurts as unjust aud severe, especially in the case of the American ship Tuscarora, and it is desirable to obtain a smoditication-of we British law, 80 as to make it equally cable to the ciuzens of Doth nations, go that in cases collieion the laws of each country shall form the amount and manner of axscssing damages. Mr. Perit stated fur- ‘aber that the memorials to the President of the United States and to Congress were being prepared and would be forwarded at an early day. ‘The object of this dia :nssion ‘war to let the public here and in Liverpool know that the matter was being agitated. Mr. DiauaxG Duss called the attention of the Chamber to the filfeeling that had arisen in New Jersey, whica ‘had-calied forth the proclamation of Governor Newell, in ‘consequence of the.deposit of mud and other refuse mat- ter on Oyster Island, about three-fourths of a mile south of Bodloe’s Island. This practice had operated to the injury of the oystermen of Communipaw to the extent of $59,000 per annum. He thought this was a serious matier, and M the Pilot Commissioners were not going to abate the ‘Buisance, the people of New Jersey would take measures te arrest the parties engaged in creating it. Mr. BLUNT, one of the Pilot Commissioners, a‘ated that he Another Great Cricket Match at Hoboken. LOOKYER'S SIDE VBRSUS BTEPHENSON'S: ‘This great match commenced yesterday at 12 0’clock, Lockyer’s side taking tho-firat innings against the bowling of Jackson and Hayward—each side made up of six Eng.

Caflyn then took the bat, and again there was a splendid play shown, the balla beiug driven all over tho tekt by these world renowned players, when one of Jackson's swifte took Grundy’s wickets, but net before he run up the score of 31, in @ style unequalled in the annals of cricket, as follows:—Two splendid drives for 3 each, a sin- gle, a splendid cut for 3,two more drives for the same umber, another gingle, still another dive fur 3, followed by even singks in succession, a flue cut for 3 and aitother single. mate at the wickets by Grundy Parr died te ‘after ‘be had ‘mato tw.

The last man, (Bashford) was then sent in, and there was now a fair prospect of Cxsar’s carrying out his bat; but after makiag a few more splendid hits, one of which was carried far over the bounds, he was bowled by Stephenson for 52 runs, made as follows:—One 4 (the only one made during the week's play); twelve 3's, two 2’s and eight single. ‘This finished Grst innings of Lockyer’s side, Bash- ford carrying out bis bat without making a run, aud only receiving oue ball.

Toe dattug hheci directeu the nea to be made on Oyster Isiant, which was under the jurisdiction ofthe State of New York, Some of the inhabitants of New Jersey have Spread their oyster beds so as to join thie island, aud hence this complamt. Hoe thought that Governor New ll swan too fast in his action to regard to the ownership of ‘Mbis island. When that dignitary was asked by the New “i Commissioners Jersey Pilot to use his authority to Prevent encroachments in the harbor by re- Moving the shad poke, be removed the Com. muesioners, and not the shad poles. The Pilot Commis- siovors had consulted the Attorney General as to their powers in the matter. He stated further that the Gom- «Missioners had a document in their posseerion that would enlighten the public in regard tothe extent of the en- eroachments on tue harbor, and especially as to the man- ner in which the Battery enlargement i: carried on. A survey had been made by Professor Bache to show that he encroachments were on a much larger scale than they had anticipated. ‘A-Mampgn asked Mr. Blunt what authority he bad for Baying that Oyster Island belonged to New York? . Bucs replied, by the treaty granted in the year 2758, which ceded jurisdiction over loe’s, Ellis’, and islands in the harbor, to New York, and which was afterwards confirmed by a treaty between New York and New Jersey, made in the year 1831, which settled the boundary line between the two States. ‘Mr. Dvex said that owaership was one thing and juris- ‘diction was avother. The island in question was not an deiand, but a shoal; he had been iu the habit of passing where it ie said to exist, but always failed to see it; he “understood that at very low tile it could be seen, but at = it was totally submerged. AL PHELPS ') said as there seemed to be a conflict of opinion between the Governor of New Jersey and the Pilot Commissioners asto the ownership of the eland, and as there seemed to be a prospect for a serious paises be thought it would be advisable to wait until ral Scott returned from San Juan, when the matter would be rettied.

Drowsinc oF A Brooxiyy Lapy Wanst CRossinG THE River YRom Hopokes—Narrow Escare or Five Orner Persons.— Yesterday evening asad accident occurred on the North river, between the hours of six and seven o'clock, resulting in the death of a young lady named Theresa Schultze, and very nearly that of five of her male companions. The facts of the melancholy occurrence, as ascertained, are as follows:—It appears that the young lady in question left her home in Atlantic strect, Brooklyn, early yesterday morning, accompanied by five gentlemen acquaintances, named respectively Thomas J , Wm. Neil, Theodore Hoff, John Dufly and Wm. Schulze (a brother of the young lady), for the purpose of going over to Hoboken to be present at the cricket match now being played there. One of the party being the owner of a emall row boat, the proposition was made and acceded to, that the six would made use of it for the day, both wo bring them from Brooklyn to Hoboken, and back again. On arriving in Hoboken the party remained there until night bad ect in, and they then started in the bout on their homeward trip. A breeze was blowing on the river atthe time, and consequently the water was quite rough. All went on weil enough until the reached about midway in the river, when Mr. Iaienzon proposeti to shift ours. Whilst this was being Gene a heary leaning to one side of the boat caused it to upset, and the occupants were precipitated into the water. None of the party saw Miss Schultze after the capsizing of the boat, and the supposition is that she was instantiy swept away with the current before a helping hand could be extended to rescue her from her terrible fate. The five men clung to the boat, which remained on the sur. face of the water, until they providentially drifted near the shore between Hoboken and New Jersey, and then, they all being luckily able to swim, reached land in safety’, ‘but quite exhausted from their hard struggle for life. Miss Schultze was but twenty-two years of age, and re- sided in Brooklyn. She was a German by birth, and hal but one relative in this country—the brother who had to Jook on.at her dreadful death without being able to ex- tend a hand to rescue her, Lecrore on Gxovogy.—Dr. Boynton will lecture this evening at Cooper Institute.

Railroad Communication With West- chester County. THRE SUBJECT BEFORE THE COMMON COUNCIL. ‘The Committee on Railroads of the Board of Alderme met yesterday afternoon to hear parties in reference to the subject of railroad communication from Westchester county to the city, and thence to the lower part of it. The Westchester County Railroad Company was organ- | ized in 1850, and they now desire to build a road through thecounty to Kingsbridge or some point in that vicinity, ‘where it would cross the Harlem river and connect with another road which they desire permission to construct, which would pase down some of the avenues on the western side of the city and be again connected with the city railroad, on whieb small cars would run down te the Sattery or some other point which might be agreed upon. Mr. Exizny epoke in favor of the project. He said that at present Westchester county is not well connected with New York, but on the contrary there are few tacili- ties for travelling between the two places. Westchester ié rich and well peopled, and its iutercourse with the city isconeiderable. He knows that ali the parties residing there desire the opening of railroad communication with New York, which to them would be a great convenience. Mr. Dupury FIKLD, a6 counel for tae petitioners, inform- ed the committee that the Corporation have a perfect right to authorize the building of a railroad by any company through any of the streets in the city. eatabliah this he quoted from decisions given by J: s Comstock und Lig Supreme Court in 1853. was not satis- fled so well d: to the authority of the city to permit the erection of a bridge over the Harjewa river, but thought it might require a icgizlative act. Mr. Carman Said he had ben a resident of Weatchestor county for the last thirty years, and had always esired and felt the necessity of railroad communication wi.'h the city. Though a large number of persons were present at the m ceting, the project seemed to meet with universal «p- pn ‘bation, no one being present who poke against it. 4' the request of some gentlemen present, however, the committee promised to hold another meeting to hear par tiee a,pecially on the subject.

Good customers are obtaining money on 60 a 90 day paper atthe legal rate of interes’. It seems, however, to be generally understood that the banks will show a very re- markable contraction this week. Exchange on Europe js dull; some of the bankers say the market has not opened for Saturday’s steamers. The Rothechilds’ correspondents are holding at 11034 for sterl- ing 60 days bills, and 1105; for sight; for francs 5.1054 and 6.1334. These rates are, however, rather above tho market. The specie shipment on Saturday does not now promise to.be large. From present appearances not much more than balfa million will go forward. ‘The stock market opened to-day with considerable acti- vity, especially in New York Central, which was a shade higher than yesterday afternoon. Between tho boards the market was steady and rather weak; in the afternoon Prices were generally rather better, though thero was very little business. Of Central the sales were very large, at prices ranging from 783; to 78%; the price closed 78% bid. Large deliveries of stock, sold yesterday, were made to-day, and created an unusual demand for the stock. ‘The Western shares were generally neglected at yeaterday’s Prices, with the exception of Galona and Rock Island, which were firm without any advance.

There is considerable talk in the street about the late contest between the Pacific Mail and Vanderbilt. The last news from the two steamers, by the pilots, is as fol- | lows:—The steamer Northern Light left her pier fifteen minutes bebind the Baltic. She passed the Baltic below Staten Ieland, the passengors giving three hearty cheers. When the pilots left the Northorn Light was six miles head. The pilots say she was flying away, with the sig- nal “U. 8, Mat’”’ streaming from her mast head. ‘The business of the Sub-Treasury to-day was as follows :—~ The exchanges at the Bank Clearing House this morning Were $23,807,490 12, and the bulances $1,044,670 66. We have received from a leading city bank a communi- cation on the report of the Clearing House meeting. Our correspondent denies our right to be present at such meet- ings, because, he says, the Clearing House is “morely a place where the banks effect their exchanges” —a purely private matter, with which the public have nothing to do. ‘We deny the fact. It is not true that the Clearing House “merely a place where the banks effect their ¢x changes.” Hf this were true, bank presidents would have no more business there than reporters. From its first e8- tablishment to the present time the Clearing House has not only served as a place where the daily exchanges have been offected, but likewise as the only place where bank Presidents have met to discuss and decide upon matters of common and public interest. It was at the Clearing House that the bank presidents discussed and decided on the re- lative proportion of specie which each bank was recom- 1 vended to retain in its vault. Was not this a public mat. ter? and were not the public entitled to know the views of the Wading bankers on this momentous subject? It fe at the \“learing House that new institutions are admitted into ‘be great family of city banks. Not many months ago, for instance, the Mechanica’ Bank. cent, though some loans continue to be made at 63. | two unsucccestul attempts, readmitted to the Dy a vote at the Clearing House. What bnsiness had the Danks to make this matter private? What right had they to conceal fronsthe public their reasons, at one um», (.r refusing to admit the new bauk; at another, for admitting it? The questions on which their decisions must have turned were of the highest public import. Our correspondent, who eays that the Clearing Hiuse ia «merely a place where the bank exchanges aro effycted,”” has evidently forgotten 1857. If he will look back to the records of that year, be will find that on the 12h October, “ata meeting of Bank officers held at the Clearing Howe, the following resolution was, aftor a long preamble, adopted:— Resolyed, That the Danks of the city of New York are determined at al) hazards and under all circumstances to perform their duty to the country and to all its great inte- resis, an the mai and that all intenance of specie classes of the community E Riv k them ia carrying out this determiuation. ‘This resolution is signed ‘ Thos. Tileston, chairman,” and ‘‘ Jus. Gallatin, secretary.” Can it be serlously pretended that the ground covered Dy this resolution was private, or that the banks have any right to exclude the public from diseussions of auch vital public consequence ? Again, on the following day, 18th October, a meeting of the associated banks was held at the Clearing House, at which, ‘on motion of Mr, Knapp, seconded by Mr. Dur- ham,” the following preamble and resolution wore adopted — V bei in_view of the excitement Picken) and the fact of the actual ibsch nae ced “ra! Danks, Resolved, That tt i expedient that the Banks of this city suspend specie payments to-morrow. Other resolutions were also adopted, one calling for a law to meet the emergency; another recommending the ‘banks to resume as s00n a8 possible. If the suspension of specie paymonts by the banks of New York was ‘‘a private matter,’? concerning afew bank presidents oply, we should like to know what con- atitutes a ‘¢public matter.” And if the public have no right to know what the banks are doing, when the action of those banks convulses trade, overwhelms credit, aad revolutionizes society, it would be curious to kuow what rights the banks are willing to concede to the public. Have they any righta at all, beyoud thut of depositing their money in the banks for those institutions to lent out and speculate with? If the public oxiste only for the conyenjence and by the permission of the banks, then, of course, our correspondent is right; if otherwise, then the attempt of the banks to exclude the representatives of the public from the Clearing House is aa impudent assump- tion of authority which cannot be tolerated. ‘We notice that a morning cotemporary declares that, “jp bis opinion, he has no right to demand actmittance to the Clearing House.”? Very likely. Our cotemporary knows beat where he is wanted, and we hope that nothing wo may say will induce him to intrude where he feels that he would be out of place For our part, we hold that it is our business and our right to report the proceedings of the most authoritative assembly of bankers on this couti- nent; but if, as our cotemporary intimates, he has nothing to do withauch matters, why, we sincerely trust be will stay away.
