Hundreds of similar in- Btances might be adduced, in which political and religious persecutions have benefitted the ‘trade of other nations at the expense of those which sanctioned such abuses of power. The republicans are not permitted to remain Jong insensible to the full consequences of their victory. The desertion of our best manu- facturers and workmen is a formidable item to ‘Ihave to add to the catalogue of injuries which they have inflicted upon the North.

Srrinormp, Dec. 5, 1360. Reception of Mr, Buchanan's Message—Anziety About the Doings of Congress—A Prediction Verified—Arrival of Ex-Governor Reeder, of Pennsylwania—Olject of His Visivit—Falling off in Mr. Lincoln’s Correspondence, do. In the course of last evening I sent you a special de- Bpatch reflecting the views of Mr. Lincoln on the last an- nual Message of his predecessor. They were the result, T understand, of the perusal of the unsatisfactory synopsis pent out by the Washington agent of the Associated Pregs ‘on Tuesday afternoon. The second, more complete and corfect condensation, disseminated late in the evening of the same day, showed the passages relating to Mr. ‘Lincoln’s position to be much milder and less personal than they wore inferred to be from the first. I have reason, indeed, to belive that ‘after the proper digestion of the Message in toto, in the ‘course of to-day, the opinions of Mr. Lincoln and his friends were somewhat modified as to the bearing of the ‘document upon the President elect. It is true the same weverity of comments are still applied to that portion of dit that charges the republicans with having been the main agents in entailing the present political crisis upon the country, But this alleged indulgence in misrepre- Senting insinuations as to the antecedents of Mr. Lincoln 4g no longer insisted upon. The attitude assumed by Mr. Buchanan towards the ‘Recession movement is much bolder than it was supposed 4 be by Mr. Lincoln's intimate friends. Several ‘amang them have already given expression to the belief that the practical test of secession, viz: Tesistance to encroachmments on the part of ‘the restive States upon federal authority, may ‘after all devolve upon the outgoing administration. This esire to see the explosion—if one is to occur at all—take Place under the latter, is of course natural with the Triends of the succession. As the session advances the intensity of the feelings with which the doings of Congress are watched in the State House appears to increase. The appearance of the South Carolina members in their seats was not looked upon ‘as indicative of that delicate sense of honor and propriety ‘Qhat is usually claimed by the Southern chivalry. The ‘Yeeolution offered by Mr. Morris, of Illinois, was construed 4nto a sign that the so-called anti-Lecompton democrats ‘wrould co-operate with the republicans in offering a strong Daion front to the seditious predilections of the majority Of the Southern members. It is, however, known here, ‘that Morris is, and always was, somewhat of a Douglasite ‘In regard to the slavery question. In a former letter I ventured the prediction that ‘the republicans would content themselves with the defen- Bive, and rather avoid than push the “ all-absorbing to- pic of the day.” The proceedings of the first three days ‘Proye its correctness. The programme now carried out, ‘dt is said, was agreed upen in Chicago. Not a little excitement was produced last night by the {dvent of ox-Gov. Reeder, of Pennsylvania. The tongues Of political gossippers were at once set in full motion, tnd before he had retired he was already connected with B seat in the Cabinet, a foreign mission and a United States Judgeship. Some pretended to know him to be bearer of despatches from Simon Cameron. Others said that he had journeyed hither for the purpose of procuring Mr. Lincoln’ @ndorsement of his claims tothe United States Senator. Bhip about to be vacated in his State. But I give both the President elect and the ex-Governor too much credit for Bood sense to believe them to have anything to do with ‘any such transaction. Mr. Reeder, I understand on the ©ontrary, ison his way#o Kansas,.and simply stopped Over a day to pay his respects to Mr. Lincoln. Since the meeting of Congress Mr. Lincoln's correspon ence has undergone a very gratifying decrease. It i: evident that the attention of politicians is monopolized for the time being by the events at Washington. Hon. Leonard Swett, the bearer of the electoral vote of this State, will start for Washington to-morrow morning. Senator Trumbull is expected to return here in a few days to attend to his re-election.

A singular case of seduction under promise of mar- riage is now under investigation before Justice Welsh. The complainant, it appears, is the widow of the late Joseph 8. Taylor, Street Commissioner, residing in Fifty eighth street, near Third avenue, and the defendant is George Frank Lemon, captain of one of the Long Branch steamboats and a married man, having a family residing in Troy, The parties, it appears, were on intimate terms for the past year or two, but recently }the fair widow had a falling out with the captain, and the result was that Lemon was discarded. On Saturday night the mittened individual appeared at Mrs. Taylor’s domicile and made such a noise in front of the door, that the widow had him arrested on charge of disorderly conduct. ‘The day following she sent for Justice Welsh and made the more serious of seduction “aa ‘a8 will be seen from argh En Viti Ophelia F.

At alate hour on Sunday night a telegraphic despatch was received at the Geueral Superintendent's office, police headquarters, to the effect that the young carpenter sus- pected of having murdered Mrs. Shancks, at No. 22 East ‘Twelfth street, was arrested on an emigrant train at one Of the Susquehanna stations on the Erie Railroad. Yesterday morning a second despatch conirmed the news, and related the circumstances under which the arrest was effected. The prisoner attracted attention, it appeared, by his cut hand; and not being able to give a Satisfactory account of himself, he was arrested on sus- picion, At first the prisoner denied all knowledge of Mrs. Shancks, but ho subsequently ackuowledged that he knew her, and that he was the person referred to as the “young carpenter” on the Coroner’s inquest. He de- nied, however, that he committed the murder, and said he cut his hand while working at his trade. His man- ner was very suspicious, and his answers to quostions put to him evasive and contradictory, The police feel confident that he is the man they have been in search of, and anxiously await bis arrival. The news of the young carpenter's arrest was commu- nicated to Coroner Jackman just as the inquest was about to be resumed, and the news caused quite a sensation in the room. It was at once resolved to adjourn the investi gation, in order that the accused might be present. Sergeant Lefferts, who was present at the time, stated that Capt, Caffrey would not be back until this afternoon or this morning at the earliest; so the Coroner decided to adjourn the inquest until two o'clock to-morrow after noon, at which hour all the witnesses are requested to be in attendance. Tt was the wish of Inspector Carpenter that the news of the young carpenter's arrest should be kept a profound secret, although for what reason it is hard to say; conse- quently the reporters have been laboring under a great disadvantage in obtaining the particulars. We thought this humbug of keeping police matters so secret had ex- ploded long ago, but it seems otherwise. There is nothing like publicity on all snch occasions. [t was through the newspapers that Sunei.os, Jackalow, Hicks and a host of other criminals were captured: and in the present instance it was owing entirely to the newspapers that the ‘young carpenter’? waa arrested. Captain Caffrey, of the Fifteenth precinct, was notifled of the facts, and ordered to take the first train and bring on the prisoner, with the utmost despatch, Acapesty or Music, —“Stradella” was sung last night, in German, to an audience “fit, though few.’’ The opera is in Flotow’s best vein, light, pleasant, sparkling, and a thoroughly good musical rendering of the romantic story which it ilustrates.

How tm Crry Ivsrecror Ixtevps To Keer BroApway Dvxino mux Worrer.—We are glad to notice that the re- marks we made recently respecting the condition of the streets has stirred up the officials to prompt action. Mr. Delavan, who, by-the-way, is always watchful of the af- fairs of Lis department, has made arrangements to keep Broadway in good teovsiiing order by having the snow levelled out from the sides and gutters of the street. By this means the street can be used from curb to curb dur- ing the winter. He has also made arrangements for cart ing away the snow, &c., part cularly from the lower end, where the greatest travoi exists, as rapidly as practica bie. To remove it as fast as it falls would, per! |, be neither ‘ible nor judicious. During the winters of 1857, 1868 and 1850 the Broadway Association kept this #treet in excellent order by the judicious use of salt. In no case was snow or slush am the street longer than for- ty-eight hours. Last winter no attention was paid to the street by either the city authorities or this association, excepting that the stage companies, for their own conve- nience, aalted the centre of the street, the consequence of which was the transformation of the thoroughfare into pasty marsh during the whole winter. The nuisance resulting from this became so intolerable thatghe Oom- mon Council, by ordinance, prohibited the use of salt on that street for the future. Had the ordinance been such as to have given power to the City tor to use his discretion in this matter it would have bet. ter for the public. ‘Tux Proven's Vert ov Verse —Mr. De Cordova, it will be seen by advertisement in another column, is announced to deliver a lecture this evening before the Hebrew Lite Union, at Clinton Hall, Astor Place, on the Prince of Ww: visit.
