Yesterday, the anniversary of the birthday of Father Mathew, the Temperance Apostle of Ireland, was cele- brated with unusual zest. From eleven o'clock until nearly one yesterday there was great commotion in East Broadway. Bands were playing, troops of men clad in badges, so to speak, as-they formed the most prominent feature of their dress, were musterinj, flags fying and “banners cast to the breeze’’ in the mst prodigal man- ner, making the ignorant passer-by curious to know what all the show was about, The surry of mounted men with enormous sashes of green anc crimson and gold swung round their necks and envelping their bodies, the continuous buzz of orders and directions given in loud tones, the stoppage of the streé traflic, and the conglomerous assemblage of the “greit unwashed’ to look on and see the sight, with the merry girlish faces peering out from the windows abovg—ili formed a tout ensembie gay, majestic and inspiring. Seventy-seven years ago was born Theobald Mathew, the good priest who bas done so much in the cause of temperance. If ever human being deserved canoniza- tion did be; for the saved lives of thousands cry out in his bebalf and bless him who rescued them from the drunkard’s fate, from the drunkard’s grave. Fatuer Mathew is dead, but his memory lives as green as when bis. reputation had extended from tand to land aud his earnest efforts in doing good for the human race were being looked on with admiration and appreciated by the general public. He is dead, but be fives still among us now; and the different temperance societies which havo his name for their watchword, and his example their creed turn out every year, as ut the cele- bration held yesterday, his anniversary, to do bouor to the name, the noble acts and ihe memory of Father Mathew, sf ‘The gocietios having all mustered by twelve o'clock, rome little time was spent in marshalling the precession into ine, when they ail proceeded, bh various bands, each to its special compacys, to the City Hall Perk in the foliowing order: — bs At the head of the line was Metropolitan potice to clear Grand Marshal, 8.

Banners finttered and the marshals and various devaties eacu had a bowya! in his hand. The pleasantest part of the sight, however, were the bands of littie cuildren, clad in Knickerbocker cosjumes, that led each of wie various companies, Linked together, band if hand, with therr neat cortumes they formed a very/promineat feature and elicited the admiration of the crowds of lookers-on who aste “l to see them file into the City Hall square and park. in front of tao City Hall the Mayor and Council re viewod the men as they marched by to the taking air of ‘Glory, Glory, Huiteiab’ or “Pat Molloy.’ Afier thus passing ia review order the line pursued its course. How like a serpent it had been winding up fram the Bowery! the colors of the banners carrying out the tliu- sion; up Broadway to Union Square; finally a%sotabling in front of the Cooper Institute, and then dispersing. The gathering yesterday was very large, numbering many thousands, and the diferent companies teomed fully animated with tho genuine esprit de corps which has done so much for tue temperance body siave |'s tirst foundation.

Blake and Thomas F, Smyth were yes- terday arraigned on an indictment found ‘against them by the Grand Jury, on a charge of uttering and vending counterteit notes and fractional currency. Though indi- viduaily indicted, they were in reality confréres, as was alleged, in the revelation of their history, by two inge- nious detectives. Blake was formerly a United States detective, and acting in that capacity, captured a man on whom he found $25,000 of contraband mont His ava- rice was excited, and, allured by the large sum, he di: avowed his allegiance to his whilom employer, and, it is alleged, commenced plying the nefarious trade of circulating the ill-gotten booty, Under the os- tensible profession of photographer, he {frequented public assemblies, but at a recent camp meeting his credulity betrayed him. Detec- tive Appleton, by false misrepresentations, insinu- ated himself into the confidence of Smyth, who gave bim aletter of introduction to him as allright and a “ral mitted the letter, but tii he considered he had sufliciently tested his new ac- quaintance. He asked the detective, “Was be a good thief #”” who, replying in the ailirmative, was requested to steal a pair of chickens, The wily official purchased the fowis and gave them to Blake with their necks cut. fe on next received a bogus $10 bill to buy a pound of butter.

In reply io the several inquiries made therein 1am led to believe thas the plan of storm signals mentioned in your letter—viz., A white light to indicate @ storm to the north and ared light a storm to south; a white fiag by day to indicate a storm tothe north and ared flag a storm to the south of the Cape— would be the best, except in miny or f weather, when a cannon might be superior.

I thiuk your ea tn estab- lishing @ system of “storm signals’ at thie Cape and at Key Weat to be a very good one, and if you are success ful you wil! soon see the benefits derived therefrom, Any assistance that Iam able to render you shal) be freely given; call on me at any time for axy information you tay want. Please to acknowledge the receipt of this Jetler and state when you think to carry your plan iuvo edect, respectfully yours, ‘A. W. SIMPSON, Jn. Principal Keeper Cape Hatters Lighthouse, It is well known to mariners that deitructive storms are often on the Atlantic to (be north, woen at the sare time there is mone to the south, and ice versa, The system referred to is to establish slorm agnals at Capo Hatteras, by which passing vessels will be warued when a storm is on the Atlantic tothe north or to the south, Vessels would then rap into port until the storm had’ had spent its fury, by which means millions of dollars in sbips and cargoes would be saved annualy, together ot the existence of scch storms 18 to be furnished by the telegraph running along the Atlantic coast, by steamers sailing to the vari- ports and 1 Bidgoon runaing into port 2 avoid the rm, from wh! the news is to be telegraphed to Cape Hatteras. Of course to make this pan practica- bie a telegraph line must be built from Newern to Hat- teras, This could be done by the board of trade of the rincipal seaports, bj rauce cpmpanies, or graph Company, 60 as to have the signals in operation forthe winter storms. As this telegraph would oniy be useful tocommerce, an appropriation would doubtless be made by Congress early jing sewsion to repay iis coals and make it o tine. But if this should never be done, tbe jagle vessel and cargo which night be saved by the signals would more than pay iis emire cost, This ue should be built at once. A similar system of storm signals, but ofmuch greater Importance on account of the greater number of passing vessels, may also be established at Kay West and Havana, by which vessels 1g through the Florida channel my be warned when a storm is dnthe Atlantic or ip the Gulf, so as torun into port until it ts over. The news of sich storms is to be obiained ) the same maoner as described, and despatched by blegraph to Key West and Havana, when the signals will be exbib- ited. In addition the news will often be broight direct by steamers a to or touching at these pora, The number of vessels sailing w the Gilf is very great, and the loss of vessels by storms in the Gulf, and especialiy on the coast of Florida, 1s also great, Vessels come out of the Guif heavy laden with va:table cargoes, and when among the keys or ‘islands they run into a terrific gale or aro struck by a northeas storm, by which they are driven on to the keys or the Florida coast, where ship aud cargo become a total los, These storm si; is would prevent much of this disaver and save mill of dollars in sbips and cargoes anqually, as weil as huadreds of lives. The boards of trade and marine insurance companies should see that \heso signals are established immediately, 80 as to be in use im time forthe winter storms. The signals. could be exhibited on Fort Taylor, Key West, and, if so, then ihe only expense would be the telegrams of storms. Whin once established at Key West they would also soon »¢ established at Havana. Tho cost of the plan would le trifling and the saving very great. A, WATSON, Wasurnatox, D, C.

Ranaias, N. 0. Oct. 6, 1801, Politically the prospects in North Carolina are fair white supremacy. Tbe people have manfully resol to resist the destruction and depredaion of the Anglos Saxon race in (he North State, and like heroes are folle ing up in solid phalanx under the flag of conservatiam,' the motto of which is everything required in the radical reeontruction acts, barring the pill they would make the country swaliow—negro supremacy. This the “ tar heels” are not yet prepared for, nor do they propose Ld turn their State into a Jamaica or San Dog mingo, with all the accompanying horrors i tendant upon such @ terrible zevolution, The supre acy party are daily exhibiting sigus of disruption an demise, Unlike their bresuren in Virginia, they are organized; they have uo head like the Grent Hunnicutt, to control their bad passions and shape destinies, Mr, W.

Defeat stares them in the face, and, Hike a demoralized army, they will meet with the fate are so obstinately pursuing for the pui of Bee aie white vamalsge in a country that 'clatme for ite founders the brightest oroaments of that great and thoroughly civilized race. Organization of the conserva- tives will be perfected by the 271b instant, and whem the commanding general orders an election the white race will stand forth in all its majesty with a full mae jority of twenty-five thousand. iegro supremacy wilE be averted and North Carolina will be saved the fate of Africanized Tennessee. It is a lamentable fact thas number of the southern States are hopetessiy im thi hands of megroes and political incendiaries who hav@ gained their confidence; but North Carolina will be saved from the schemes of thess itinerant plunderers and ous proscriptionists, as well as the degradation of being ruled by a low, igaorant and debased ruce, who are regarded as little better than semi-barbarous. From all parts of the State accounts of radical disruption and the success of the conservative party come teeming in, and just now matters look most encouraging. ven the colored ople themselves are fast lostng confidence in f-emaciated leaders. They begin to find thas ables do nos orable comparison; and as matter, even reason and dispassionate judgment get the better of prejudice and excitement, and wholesale deser- tion of the radical ranks is the consequence. Gentlemen from the interior report that large numbers of the freed~ men will vote with the white le—tous securing & larger majority than could nave anticipatea for white instead of negro domination. The “Red String’? organization—a radical adjunct— also exhibits premonitory symptoms of decay; and im this State, where once it was so thoroughly organized and powerful, a coliapse is threatened. A lodge for- merly numbering some forty-four, a few days since could only muster four for reorganization, aud from all parts of the State accounts of similar defection in all radical institutions are received, The ‘‘Leagues,” are becoming unpopular, and soon all these radical sec: midnight combinations of treachery and deceit will ex. pases, the doom they deserve at tho bands of all good, jonest citizens. ‘The radical Pattee a ee bier at Washe ington, previ meantiol 2 correspondence, pionibitiog the nomination of negroes for office, hag done its work well and effectively.
