The present week will mark a very hotabie epoch in the annals of New York yachting and aquatic sports. Besides the grand expedition from the anchorage here, which started down the Sound with some sixty yachts on Saturday, there have been numerous other associated aud mndividaal expeditions and excursions out to sea, which seem to indicate an extraordinary revival in the ‘taste for marine sports. In fact, there is a striking ehange in the extent to which people this year, instead “of sweltering At the sea side hotels, have taken boldly to adventurous sailing expeditions, making evon the voy- ‘age across the Atlantic in multitudes of instances, as a ‘substitute for the old fashioned, tiresome loitering at (Long Branch, Newport and the other customary loung- $ng places by the ocean, I was particularly struck with this fact to-day as I -eamo up the bay in the Cunard steamer Cuba, and saw the Scotia start on the same tide. Both were crowded % their utmost capacity. A large proportion of the paa- _ sas. in both appeared to be American pleasure seek- ors Oe eor a trip.’ On the south shore,of Staten Island T noticed 8 em. thirty or forty small pleasure sloops, although the great 44 geet was understood to be down ‘Tho Sound, Thad mysell”—erteq the Cuba far out at ea, off Montauk, from anothe. yacht excursion, of which I purpose to give you some, - ticulars, : ‘ 5 aaah THE NEW YORK PILOTBOAT EXCURSION. This latter affair is calculated to exercige an important dnduence, as it well illustrated the direct practical con- ~meetion which the pleasure yacht has with the practical interests of commerce and the great shipping business of ‘the country. It seems that the Sandy Hook and Hell- gate pilots ‘had occasion last winter to appeal to tho State Legislature for eome amendments ‘of the laws regarding pilotago on the coast, ertain «clauses of these amendments had ref/ ‘erence to the fees of the pilots, and granted an id- -ereano, limited to three years, with the view of adyit- fing of an examination of the subject before the mtes ‘were fixed .as permanent, A number of the pilgboats ‘were laid up, as they could not be operated at tht exist- ‘fing charges. Two had been captured and burned by the rebel privateer steamers, and one or more had yen lost, altogether inflicting great Joss on the pilots, s0 as to ne- Coxstute imperatively thelaw granting them some relief. For.the purpose of making the subject familiar to the officials with whom the pilots bad communicated last winter, while the Pilotage bill was pending, the pilots in- -vited Lieutnant Governor Atvord, a number of the Sen- sators, Assemblymen, State officers, with merchants and ‘titizens, to the extent of something over a hundred per- gone, topartakeof a yachting excursion in their boats, ever.their usual cruising ground, and witness how the pilots performed their laborious task. As the large num- Ber of guests could-not be suited with any singlo term or extent for the excursion, the various boats were Ueft to the discretion of the respective parties in hem, and as euch individual saw fit he made hie stay short or tong. Thus while one or ‘two days were spent by parties who only went down the Bound or out to sea and directly back, there were oth- ers who extended their trips. The Fannie, Captain Wool- | sey, went down the Sound, visiting Greenwich, Newport, Montauk and Plum Island, and returned around Long ‘Island by Sandy Hook. The Fish, Captain Brown, the Edna. and Dudley went down the Sound to Newport, and Feturned stopping at New London. The F. F. Willams made the same expedition through the Sound es ber companions, ax far as Newport, and parting company ‘there, visited Block Island and proceeded to sea on a fogular cruise, from which that boat has not yet returned. Having sailed with her until we intercepted the Cuba, on which I returned this morning, I made the following motes of our trip: — WOW WE WEIGHED ANCHOR AND HOW MUCH THE ANCHOR WEIGHED. After preliminary trips on Monday and Tnesday for the Benefit of those who only desired “a day’s sail, without playing out over night,” tho pilots assembled all of their guests at the Battory on Wednesday morning (of last ‘week), who wished to experience a regular salt water cruise, “It was found that five of their boats would sccommodate the party, and everything was put in order 4o start out the fleet, mauned and provisioned in the most atfective condition {or “a splendid time.” 1 took up my berth in the E.

To that craft wore allotted as guests, under the auspires i Captain Harbinson, a batch of passengers whose repu- tation for being on the “eafe side” is pretty well known en land, and [ thought it would be as well to trust Abeir luck also on tho sea fora trip. ‘They comprised Lieutenant Governor Alvord, Senator Cole (the “father of the Senaic’), Senators Christie, Laimbier, Strong and Williams, with tho'r sergeantat-arins and some frends and other officials, Tho day was hot and She sun briliant, 1 her boats, the Fish, Fan- mic, Edna and Dudl «1 all sail hoisted and their rs up at the signal to sail, On the Williams all efforis to tnp the anchor proved abortive and threat- ened to spoil our sport.

Its great weight, however, affectod the speed of our boat by pute ting her materially out of trim for the light winds of the Sound. It was after one o'clock when wo started up the East fiver. Those of the party (from the interior) who had mever seen Hellgate, had an excellent op; ortunity, with the experienod comments of the Hellgate pilots, to see the wonders of “tho pot,” “the gridiron,” “the hog’s ack,” &c. It is really a grent treat for a New Yorker to ‘witness the astonishment which the familiar but really splendid scenery of the East river will elicit from a coun- try cousin or foreign visitor, A DESCENT ON INDIAN FAKDOR, TWERO AND THE AMERICTS OLUR.

A NIGHT ON THE SOUND AND NEWPORT IN A FOG— « TRIEUTE TO THE PILOTS AT THE OCEAN HOUSE. It may bo fairly presumed that the little fleet of ptlot- boats presented ‘as unique an expedition, going down the Sound, on Wednesday night, as anything seen on those waters since Captain Kid led his old buccaneers over the same track. In point of merriment, the up- roarious company of the Fannje vied with that of the Edna, while the usually grave and reverend secignors on the Williams were really not far bebind their juvenilo compatriots in making “right merry under the harvest moon.”’ In due time I lay down on the deck under a piece of canvas with a couple of officers of the late Army of the Potomac.’ They told over their reminis- gences of the old camp nights of the war until they had fallen asleep. I heard for hours the revel continued on the other boats, the song, the banjo, the fiddle, the accordoon; with the intermittent shouts of laughter over rough stories, horse play, old jokes and fresh drinks, Not being as well accustomed to an open air bed as my bed- fellows, it was late before I fell asleep; but I had a most appropriate dream about Captain Kid and the largo number of Assemblymen who were on board the Fannie. “Tho Kid,” as I thought, was in profound consultation with a committee of the said Assemblymen about ‘a big thing” which he had somewhere near Montauk Point. Ho was on the point of “letting them in”? when I was awakened by one of the pilots to sve the sun rise over the old cruising ground of the buccaneer. All the gold of the Spanish main would be incapable of typifying the gilded splendors of the scene. It drove all idca of Captain Kid’s bill for turning his buried treasures into a Wallstreet joint stock corporation out of my mind. ‘The wind was very light all day until sunset, and our principal occupation was to keep on the shady side of the sail, With afresh breeze in the evening we rounded Point Judith, and anchored in Newport harbor between nine and ten'o’clock. All hands went ashors, and, as if by concert, to the only place in town, the Ocean tUuse, Tho principal incident of interest which occurred during our visit to Newport (prolonged until Sunday morning by a dense and all pervading fog) was the presep/ation cere- mony at the Ocean Hose on Thursday nighé. A magnificent basket of flowers and grays, being pro- vided for the purpose, was presented t¢ the pilots on the part of their guests by Theodore E. Tomlinson, in a speech of characteristic and admirable Oeauty and pro- priety. MR. TOMLINSON’S SPEECH AT He said, in words that were poetical, that the beautiful tri their guests to the pilotsas an pression of kind end earnest regard, and as fit emb&ms of the bright and exhilarating pleasures of their/tercourse on the occa- sion, He alluded to the numgous high officers and dis- tinguished representatives 4 the State of New York which the party aa to the beauty, wealth and OCEAN HOUSE. t only eloquent but was presented by rank of the country bled at this season at the Ocoan Mvase—the cenye and citadel of so much the intellect, ste and fashion of the land, and in the ptesence of that audience, on the part of these aumerous and chosen _represen- tatiyes of the great Empire State of the Union, he red to the men of the sea this tribute from the } of the lard.

He made a most effective spel in the cause of the pilots for a just consideration of their honest rewards at the hands.of those who are charged ‘with that responsibility. © Captain Woolsey, of the Fannie, received the testi- momal and responded briefly for his associates, the lots of Sandy Hook, as well as for the Hell Gate pilots, lo expressed their sincere thanks for what haa been done for their benefit, and in a simple impressive manner gave carnest assurances of their faithful endea- vors in, path of their duties as the best manner in whith could make their gratitude manifest. NEWPORT AND 178 FASHIONABLES—BLOCK ISLAND AND ITS FISHERIES. During the stay at i eet the number of the ex- cursionists greauy, diminished. The fishirg, bathing and sailing, however, detained the majouity, in detiance of the per fog. On Saturday the little fleet at- ee to get away, and forming in line sailed around the harbor on a tour of salutation. The old frigate, the Constitution, engaged their most respectful cheers, She had weighed anchor and was under orders to sail for Annapolis, being also delayed by the inevitable Newport fog. The captain of one of our boate, the Fish, was Captain Richard Brown, who carried out and sailed the yacht America, As she was Jying in port, being now in the government service, we sailed around tho America, in our boats, under command of her old master, realizing the close similarity and fraternity of our boats with the beautiful model which the pilots of Sandy Hook had sent forth, with one of their number, to beat the world on the sea. You maybe assured that our guns and voices gave ample utterance to the patriotic satisfaction which this incident recalled. But we failed to get off to sea on Saturday and returned to the anchorage. On Sunday morning Captain Harbinson determined to take his boat, the Williams, to Block island. Setting out on this purpose, we found the other boats aleo got under Way and followed, each, however, upon some course of their own. Thus'the Fish, the Edna and the Dudley re- turned to New York by way of the Sound, while the Fannic went around Long Island and reached home by way of the Hook. ‘The Williams held out for Blocl Island and the ocean. Ten miles off Newport we emerged from the fog bank which veiled that fashionable resort forso many days, and we held away for Block ao alone, under the brightest auspices of sun and wind. No two places could present a greater contrast than Newport and Block Island. A parallel could be drawn between them in a catalogue of very amusing opposites— the one presenting the most fashionable bustle, while tie other, only twenty or thirty milos further from the main shore, is the most lonely and unsophisticated local- ity on all the borders of the Atlantic, From the fine har- bor at Newport we reached a more open roadstead shel- ter on Block Island, From the midst of supercilious fashionables we found ourselveagtransterred to a commu- nity of simpl: fishermen, Only to recall the fa°t women of Newport, driving luxurious vehicles with their own hands, changing places with their drivers, whip in hand, their lavish and extravagant dress, their confident manner, their bold carriage, idleness, dissipation, and to compare with these the con: dition of things on Block island, offers one of the strangest contrasts imaginable. In the latter locality searcly any of the women could be seen out of doors. ‘Their dress is of the most simple materials, and mainiy of‘homespun or their own manufacture. They aro so shy as to run away whenever strangers land on the island, The clean cultivated flelds, without a shrub or a ht, the bald, whitewashed houses, everything restive of @ most striking contrast in every feature as compared with the aspect of the locality we had just left. ° ‘The pilots run their vessols under tho lee of this island for shelter from the ocean storms, and from outside of it is their favorite crue across the track of European ships bound for Sandy Hook. — It is, therefore, frequently visited by the pilot boats, and seldom by any other ves- sels except such as arc driven there in distress, ‘THY FISHING BOUNTIES—A NATIONAL FRAUD. 1 was struck with the remarks of one of the fishermen of this island in talking with him upon the fisheries westion, He said that many thousand quintals of cod- ish were caught and cired by the Block Island men, and they fished upon the deep sea some four to five months out of the year. They made a profitable thing of it and were eatisied with their business, but they could not understant why the government paid bounties for cod- fivhing Lo Massachngette fishermen at Cape Ann and Mar- blefiead, and none to thos» who happened to be Rhode Islanders, or to the Long Island fishermen. It appeared t») hima great injustice, and when I recited the usual reasons given for the payment of thes9 bounties, that it was to encourage a community of seafaring men who, in time of war, would be invaluable for our navy, the fish- erman answered me that the United States frigats had laid im at Cape Ann and elvewhere among these bounty fishermen, and nota single man would enlist during the late war. In short, I was reminded that New York har. bor and the lakes and rivers of the West, even the canals, bad been the sources from which men had been nished for Farragut, Perry aud Foote, and the bounty fishermen of New England had kept entirely clear of marine, Here 1s obviously a national fraud, THE SEA, THE SEA, THE OPEN SRA--THE PILOT IN HIS RLEMENT.

The smaller vessels do not take a pilot un- til they approach the Hook, ‘The foreign steamors and heavy merehautmen are sought outside, sometimes two or three hundred miles at sea, We reached away for the track of the steamers, several of which were expected next day from Enrope. ‘The wind freshened every mo- ment and we wore promised a rough night at sea, [sat up late, while the pilots reeited on deck many graphic scenes of shipwreck and incidents of their stirriag pur- suits upon the coast. THE PILOTS AND THE RI8® OP THE INDEPENDENT PRESS. But I was persoually ost interested in the old time reminiscences of journalism when the pilots played a leading part in the history of the independent With how moch interest did they recall the oxclusive news for the HrraLp by express messenger from Mon- tauk or the Jersey shore! Those were the days that slow the old fozy folios, and built up a reat metropolitan Heratp upon thonsands of steaming extras with the ex- chisive news, The piiots took a leading hand thea, when their boats 80 often sent to the Herauv office a whole month's later dates from Europe. Think of the work of a few years, since the HznaLp superseded and burned Webb’ old Cowrier and Enquirer! To-night as we scud before the breeze it is proposed to keep away before it until we meet the Great Eastern and see the cable landed, Despatches at Newport had stated that she had reached her destination, or I believe a visit to her would have been agreed to as the object of our trip. With the completion of this immense enterprise, and the telegraph pervading every civilized country ‘with instantaneons intelligence, the Sandy Hook pilota might well concede that ther days of prominent activity for the metropolitan press were somewhat overshadowed by the telegraph; but I felt warrant@® in assuring them that their services to its rise were neither forgotten nor under- valued, while their importance, in connection with ma- rine intelligence, was still of the first moment to the whole country. AN EXCITING CRUISE. ‘The wind, which had blown very fresh and stiff when I went down to my berth for the night, burst forth in a regular squall after midnight, and I was awakened by the hurried tramp of the seainen on deck, the voices of the crew at the ropes, and the splash of a heavy sea shipped forward, Woe had burst the bonnet of the jib when the squall struck us. All sail was soon clewed up, until we stood in the wind’s eye under a close-recfed mainsail. Some of us went on deck, while others slept in security as our schooner rolled and pitched all night through a regular storm at sea, The weather moderated after day- light, and we fell in chase of a large square-rigged ves- sel which it was proposed to board. She stood ofa long way to windward of us, and it took many hours’ chase to overhaul her. The aspect of a full-rigged vessel coming up under all sail of sea is most imposing. The sea ran high, but our yaw? was dashed overboard, and Phillips, with’ two oarsmen, jumped in, and boarded tho Talisman, of Mavre. It seoms he made some allusion to distinguiahed guests on the pilotboat, in reply to an inquiry frea the French captain as to who we had on deck, and the consequence Was a present of magnificent brandy sent back by our returning yawl. The chase after other ship was continued all day in a manner which became jite exciting. It was found that another boat was on @ course cruising ahead of us. As each pilotboat is an independent organization or company, doing business on their separate accounts, there is a great decl of lively competition. Several of the ships we ke had pilots on board. So it was resolved to make well out upon the track of the returning steamers for fear of losing them. Our signal flags were answered by the few vessels we passed through the day that they had pilots or did not need them, and it was midnight before anything practi- cal presented itself, The pilots took turns at the helm, or with the spy glass at the masthead. At half-past twelve on Tuesday night Captain Harbinson roused all hands below to come on deck for a “‘Cunarder.”” Up we came accordingly, the schooner was put about, and torches and blue lights were burned over side, We had the wind and ran towards her; steam and sail on both vessels soon ea be them in plain view. No other sail was to be seen on the broad expanse of water, which was lighted by the most brilliant moonlight. The steamer, after gome delay, answered our signal lights by a rocket, and then another, and another. She wanted a pilot, We had distanced our rivals, Out went the yawl, with cay ye was cae tesa if te a ball.

He returned the property, and was sent to the Penitentiary for six months, Patrick McGovern, who was guilty ofan attempt at grand larceny, was sent to the Penitentiary for a year. ‘Walter Williams, the pickpocket, who was prosecuted by Gardiner Carroll, he coming forty miles to appear in court against him, was arraigned for sentence and pro- duced a convict to testify to his good character. The Recorder discovered the fraud and imposed a severe sentence—namely, four years’ imprisonment in the State Prison, Thomas McSherry, who pleaded guilty to an assault ‘and battery, was sent to the Penitentiary for one year and fined a hundred dollars. James Scott, convicted last April of grand larceny, ‘was sent to the State Prison for two years. ‘Wm.

Francis McMonken, a returned soldier, who stole a coat from John Dwyer, 111 Thompson street, on the 20th of July, pleaded guilty to petty larceny. He was sent to the Penitentiary for three months CLOTHING MERCHANTS VICTIMIZED BY A TAILOR. Charles Hardy, against whom were several complaints for robbing merchants, pleaded guilty and was remanded until next month for sentence, in order to afford him an opportunity of making restitution, so as to secure a miti- gation of punishment. The indictment upon which the plea was taken, was one charging him with taking sixty dollars worth of beaver cloth and trimmings, on tho 14¢] of fy the property of Richard H. Stillwell, Jt appears that the prisoner was in the habit of going around to tailoring establishments and gett‘ng material to make up clothing, and failing to return them. John McGuire, who stole a pocket book containing eight dollars, from Francis ripley 136 West Fourth street, on the Sth inst., pleaded guilty, and was sent to the Penitentiary for two months. BURGLARY. Martin Brady, mdicted for burglary in the third de- ees in breaking into the plumbing establishment of bert J. Ellia, 608 Sixth avenue, picaded guilty to an attempt.

The Grand Jury came into court with another bundle of bills, and, having disposed of all the complaints presented for their action, the Recorder discharged them, stating that they had found over a hundred indictments, besides mo alarge number of complgints that were dis- BOEarna A sortase ag MATER STREST DEN. mes Lowry lary Maher were tried on a charge \d larceny, in stealing one hundred and sixty doilars from James Reed, a returned soldier, i a saloon called the “Rising Star” corner of Oliver and Water streets, on the night of the 11th of July. It appearing soon after the case was opened that the woman was married to Lowry, the Court instructed the jury to acquit her, the Jaw eu} wg that she was acting under the coorcion of her husband. The complainant Reed went into this place, and after drinking three times became ipsensible, and knew nothing until he found bimself tying on stoop some hours afterwards. A man named John Be- dell—also a returned volunteer—who was stopping tem- Lemigi« | above the saloon k p by the prisoner, and who was there a few days before, was sitting near the bar, for the purpose, as be suid’ of watching to ace if other soldiers would robbed. He pretended to drink liquor, but threw it down, and saw the accused parties go to Reed's pantaloons and take Reed’ money, and put it behind the bar. Two winesses were examined by the defence—one, Morris Jacobs, who’ said he was in tho bar all the time and didn’t see any money taken, and William Willoughby, the prisoner's burkeeper, who swore that next day Bedel! enid if Lowry did not give him money he would inform against him. The Jury convicted Lowry and acquitted the woman. When he was at the barfor sentence, in answer to an in- uiry of the Court (for Lowry was well known), he raid at he served three years and six months in prison, but denied being there a second time. The er sentenced him to State Prison for five years. Antomo Marco was tried on a charge of stealing one hundred and twenty-six dollars from Frederick Bess, at 121 Essex street, on 13th of July. The principal witness for the prosecution was an lislian named Colum- bus, who, it ap |, Was NOL OD good terms with the accused. The District Attorney abandoned the case, and raed eer verdict of not guilty without leaving rt peal James McCormick, a deserter, pleaded guilty to petty Jaréeny, in stealing clothes from Arthur Casson, a soldier in the same regiment, and was seat to the Penitentiary for three mont!

Mafin (a pedier) soven wat It and bis friend, Mr. Dugan, met M y nd the latter traded with him for a , agreeing to twelve dollars for it. They proceeded to a drinking saloon im Cherry street, where the money was paid, and on leaving the place the pedler charged Dugan with stealing two hundred dollars from him. Dugan became indignant at that, dnd struck him, whereupon @ ght ensued, at which time Muffin alloged that Ryan tore his cont pockét and took from it a box containing seven watehés, The podier exhibited his coat, which was rent very much, this giving ocular demonstration of the fact ‘that be was a raggy-Muflin, Counsel for the prisoner, on cross examining the complainant, hinted that Muffin’s watches wote not of the first quality of movement (be- ing only brass, and manufactured in Boston), when the Thetrioct Attorney suggested that it was satisfactorily shown that the watches went. The jury were not eatis- fled that the prieoper took them and let him go. Thig wound up the business of the term, and the jury were discharged.

Our Harrisburg Correspondence. ‘Hannisnvna, August 10, 1865. ‘The Equal Rights State Convertion convened here yes- terday morning, in Wesley church, Zion connection. Among the leeding spirits in this pow-wow 1s Rev. Jno. Peck, of Pittsburg, an aged and highly respected gentleman of unmixed African origin. Ho is a man of influence at home, is highly respected for his :ntegrity, and is treated with consideration by al! elasses wherover ho is known. He has a jolly round face, a venerable aspect, @ great deal of conscious digmity, but in his old ago is regarded rather as a counsellor than an active leading spirit in the public affairs of his people. He has been among the foremost in all measures affecting their welfare in other days. Few men have spent more money in the interests of his race, or whose hospitality has been more prover- bial than Ma Peck’s, He 1s the president of the conven- tion, and performs hig functions with considerable knowledge of parliamentary usages. PROFESSOR GEORGE B. VOSHON, of Pittaburg, is the belles lettres gentlemen of the States. He ‘e a quict, unassuming personage, of mixed blood, with an expressive cast of featu which are rendered notable by a pair of gold spectacles. His classic ease and chaste diction throws a creditable reflection over the deliberations of the convention. He’ lawyer by profession, having been admitted to practice in the State of New York, and for some time was one of the pro- fessors in McGrawville College. He is at present tho head of the faculty of Avery College in Alleghany City. 398, 0, RUSTILL, of Philadelphia, ts a dark mulatto, with tolerably sharp features, an intelligent countenance, an expressive eye, about five fect ten inches in height, with an unusual amount of persp cuity in conversation, and much clear- néss and force of language on the floor, but is destitute of any rhetorical fourishes. Mr. Bustill never speaks but when he has something of utility to say—a virtue which his brethren would do well to imitate. JACOB C. WHITR, IR. of Philadelphia, would scarcely be noticed by a stranger, in consequence of his excessive modesty and unassum: ing pretensions. His countenance blends dignity with thought. He is no debater, but gives to every move- ment which receives his’ co-operation @ considerable amount of brains and great perseverance. JOHN G. CHAPLAIN, the artist of Huntingdon, who has travolled extensively in European countries to perfect his profession, is here. His eccvatricities, coupled with his exquisite elegance of manner, have rendered him an object of much specr lation among his mystified brethren. He lias executed several handsome paintings, to the credit of himself and race. He is one of those who attract but little attention in the convention, but is a worker who casts his bread upon the waters, which is seen and gathered after many days. Daniel Williams, of Hollidaysburg, a wiry politician; William Nesbit, a discerning personage; Aaron L. Still, of Reading, a practical thinker; 0. C. Hughes, of Harris burg, a tedions haranguer, and C. H. Vance, of tho same place, a troublesome member, are the most prominent delegates in attendance. PROCEEDINGS OF THR CONVENTION. ‘The proceedings of the Convention yesterday were not of avery important character. Among other business was the adoption of the following resolutions :— RESOLUTIONS OF THE CONVENTICN. Resolved, That the League petition Congress to so amend the constitution of the United States as to pro- hibit all legislation against any civilized portion of the inhabitants of these United States on account of race or color, and that all such legislation now in existence be thereby declared nuil.and void. Resolved, That the solicitors be and are hereby autho- rized to forward blank petwions to every league, church, lodge or other association within the State, requesting them to fill the blanks with their own name and mem- bers and forward the petition to Congress as early as pos- sible. Reeolved, That blank petitions be forwarded by the solicitors to every member of the League and to others interested, and they are hereby requested to have tho Dlanks filled with tho name of their city, town or vil- lage and s'gned by their citizens, without regard to sex or color, and forward the petition to Congress as early as possible. Resolved, That a copy of this petition and these reso- lutions be immediately forwarded by the Corresponding Sceretary tothe National League and to cach State League, with the request that they be adopted by them and put into practical operation, in order that the Na- tional League, every State League, every auxiliary League, every church, lodye or other association, and every city, town or villago inall these United states may unite their influence in pleading to the Congress of the nation for juatice and equality before the law. The Convention then adjourned, to meet in the even- ing, which was consumed in amending th» constitution. The night session was protracted until nearly midnight, when it adjourned, to meet this mornin, Personal Intelligence. ‘The Newburg (N. Y.) Journal of the Sth relates the following, under the head of “A Peculiar Way of En- joying a Vacation:”—Richard H. Jackson, one of the ‘employes of the Metropolitan Insurance Company, New York, having been granted two weeks leave from that concern, has just completed a trip to this city ina skiff, having Towed the entire distance from New York in three days, and returns back to New York to-day, per- forming tt in the same way. A daughter of the celebrated American sculptor, Pow- ors, is married to one of the richest merchants of Shef- field, England—Mr, Ibbetson—and isthe most accom- plished lady in that part of England. ‘The wife of the American banker, Morgan, in London, successor of Mr. Peabody, is a daughter of tho Rev. John Pierpoint, the poet, and, it is said, resembles her father in poetical disposition. John Bean, of Salisbury, N. H., aged seventy-three years, and his wife, sixty-nine years old, and their eloven surviving children, were in Concord on the 27th ult., and had their portraits taken allon one plate. They have had thirteen children, of whom eleven survive, all of whom are married and have families, and all are members of visible churches. The aged couple have for- ty-one grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. Their golden weddipg was celebrated on the 18th of May last. Arrivals and Departures, ARRIVALS.
