[From the Richmond Inquirer, Oct. 29.) Whatever may h been the result of the election on yesterday the white men of the Siate, we fect assured, exhibited a harmony of purpose and unanimity of action Which will render negro domination absolutely impossi- ble.

This letier of Mr, Cooke’s ought to be a final answer to that remarkable school of financiers, led off by Pen- dleton and Bu who have proposed the great outrage of practical repudiation by usiag greeubacks to pay the Bations! debt, and the useless and dangerous experi- ment of breaking down a banking system, which has no equal in the world or in bistory for convenience, uni- formity and security.

The Livestigation Continued—Contradictory Serpent * Dragging lis Slow At baif-past ton o'clock yesterday morning the ad- Journed investigation as to the occasion and cause of the Vauderbilt and Dean Richmond collision was resumed before the United states inspectors of steam veasels, In the absence of some of the wituesses for the Dean Richmond, a mutual agreement was made between the counsel on both sides to continue with the examination of some of the witnesses for the Vanderbilt, that there might be no delay. Benjamin F, Batty, om being sworn, testified—I re- member the occurrence in September last; on the 20th of the month I was the second pilot on board the propeller Honeysuck! fol- lowed the water ever since the year 1821; and was fifty-six years oid on the 11th of last April; I grada- ally worked my way up in boating; first a cook, then pilot and then got tv be master of a vessel; I have been second pilot fortwo anda balf years altogether; pre- viously to that Thad been slooping and was engaged occasionally on steamboats; T would be, perhaps, at one time on a sloop and then be the first pilot of a steam ‘vease!; I understand the channel of the North river; I have been employed on the Coxackie ferry as pilot; the Honeysuckle plied between Coxackie and New York; she went to Baltimore once or twice; on the night of 1 19h and 20th of September I remember passing Esopue Island; wo were bound down the river toward New York; we bad, I think, three boats in tow; per- haps there wore four boats, I cannot stato either way exactly ; we passed Esopus Island about twelve o'clock ora little after; I recoilect pasaiag the steamor Vauder- dil; Low near we went by ber i could exac.ly say; ehe was per: Atty feet from us, maybe more; but I do not think she a loss distance from us shan that; ale Was presly close, at all events; we had a barge on our port side; it might have been thirty feet across this barge, more or jews, 1 won't be positive; we passed the Vanderb!ic from a ‘half to porbape three-quarters of milo below (he island; this ia inerely an approxmmation of the distence; both the Vandersilt’ and our boat were more to the eastward of the channel than otherwise; we perlaps avout one-third of the width ot th channel hearer to the eastward than the westward; I refer to wy boat; the Vanderbilt was even more to the vastvacd than we were; could not exactly tell how the tide was that nicht; T think 1 was slack water; I koow Leame down derbilt she blew e'were not a great way oft from the Vanderbilt at that time; she was a litte ahead of us; iat is, a litte further down the river than we wore, off our port pow; she blew the whistle; Dot more Uiau one distinct whistle Iam very certain, that is, ifiaminmy right mind; | answered her whistle with a singio blast aiso;’ the ext thing I heard was ancther distinet whistle; it was perhaps a minute anda half, perbaps dhree mintites, after the other whistle; she had xot by us at ail events, I know tuat; and it was a single whistio: that single whistle came from the Van- derbiit; [ jooked round astern ef our boat when I beard it; I thea saw a large steamboat coming down; as near asIcan recollect she was houding east seutheast; 1 can’t tell of course What bor exact direction was; bai I should judge eo from the appearance of things; I cannot say how far off fromthe Vanderbilt she was at that Ome; Tealy took a glaace around, that was all, bat I told my boy, ‘* [here's going to be a collision; the Vanderbilt was about heasivg east nurtbeast and going Lo the east. ward of tue other, a3 far as 1 can recollect; I eun’t give avy idea as to how far apart these boats were; they were preity clove; I saw the little tsiand, whieh is just below the poiat of Fsoyms Island, just clear, in fact, of the bow of (he boat coming down [chart shown to witaess and he poiated at the live island he ailaded to as Blunt's feland). Question—Did | understand you to eay that the vessels were pretty close together? Witness—I could see between the little island and the big boat's bow—that is, to the westward of the Vander- bilt; Idid not bear any whistle from the Dean Rich+ mond; | heard first asingle whistie from the Vander- bilt; T avewered that; thon I heard another single whistle from the Vanderbilt; those were all the whistles that i oeard; Leaw no sloop between me and the Van- derbili; there were some sioops to the westward of my position; they lay at some distance off; perhaps they were a hitile cluwer than a Lundved yards; perhaps over that distance; all were going up the river; ‘thomas Gunvard was (he engiueer of the boat on that night; the Vanderbilt passed us near about half-past twelvo, I ehould think; that is as near to the time as I can recol- ject; [ came out for my watch when we were near Esopus Island, about eleven o'clock, baving turned out to pick up a barge; | blew our whisue myself; I did not blow more than one whistle; I um as certain of that as I sit in thin chair, the Vanderbit; blew a surill whistle—a good, clear, distinct whistie; i ain sure, if 1 had my right mind on that night, she only blew one whistle at that time; we had not much head of sivam on, and our boat did not speak very loud; onr whistle was neither 80 Clear or #9 distinct as that of the Vanderbiit, Cross-examived by Mr, Prentice, counsel for the Dean Richmone—1t was somowhere about eleven o'clock whea I came on deck and picked vp a barge to tow down; Uie three boats we pad in tow were ice boats; we placed a couple abreast, one on the port and one on the starboard side, and the other we bad to a hawser astern; I ean’t be positive whether we towed two bouts astern OF not;

THE BOARD OF HEALTH, Report of the Committee on Law and Ordi- Booth nances—Judge Bosworth and Question, - ‘The Board of Health held their regular weelly meet- the ing yesterday afiernooa, one of the Commissioners in the chair, Present, Commissioners Acton, Bosworth, Crane, Parker, Manterre and Swinburne, Absent, Prosi- dent Schultz, A number of permits to slaughter avimals above Forty-tecond sweet were granted, and several petitions from butchers requesting the same privilege were re- fused, Aregular form for permits to allow the so-called Sol- diers’ Messenger and Despawh Company to erect booths in tho streets for their employés was presented by Judge Bosworth and adopted, as was also a report by the game Commissioner on the snbject, ia which be refers to the powor of the Board to issue permits as follows:—~ ‘The Cognmalttee on Law aud Ordinances, to which the an- nexed piper (the protest) was referred, espe: that they have considered 1 in the op! commities, it depends upon the conclusion the Hoard may * to its powers under the sixth section of the statute to In ald pap Fewolution, booth or 8: whether Je rerolu- usion Uhat its 2 exhausted b3 on made to it y require, then your commitine would reo: mend that 4 resoindon Locating any booth would be passed fu form substantially Uke the annexed paper, and that each booth | Lbs logated by @ separate resoltition relating w such booth only. Judge Bosworth, in presenting the report, said:—Has the Board of Healch, mentioned in section six of (he act incorporating The Soldiers’ Business Messenger and Des- patch Company, passed April 15, 1867, the power to act on applications made to Ht from time to Lime under that section, or inst the Board determine on a cingle appli- cauon What shall be the number, size avd iovation of the covered stands or bootis which that cofporation may erect within the Metropolitan Police District’ In otner words, is the power conferred by section six of that act on this Roard exhausted by ah exercise thoroof upon one application made to it by this corporation, or w the power a continuing ove to be exercised as cecasion may arise? (Laws of 1867, vol. 1, i 849.) The period of the curation of this act is not imited to any specified number of years, If it may continue 60 long as there are @ euflicient number “of ogg who have been honorably discharged aa soldiers a the voluntesr army of the United States, from the State of New York, and orphan sons of such soldiers” (id. see, 3), to transact its business as “agents and em- ployer,” then it — exist for many years.

Tnat the Company has a right, under the statute, to erect and maintain siands or booths, The statute does not state that only one applica- tion may be made to this Board, nor dees it state that more than ope may be made. The language is that this Board “shall determing and locate the fame, upow application by the President of this corpo- rauou,.”’ What may be supposed to bo the public exigency which induced the Legrsiature to confer on this Hoard the power and authority delegated to tt by s clon six Of tins statute? Does this public exigency, in eonne tion with what appears on the face of the Statute, suow thatacontinued and permanent seper- visory authority was intended to bo vested In this Board? The period of the existence of the corporation cannot be coujectured. The }ekielaiure bas granted to the nght to erect and maintain there stands on the strecia, But it seems to have beea unwilling to permit this corporation to erect thom wherever they, might prefer to locate them, or to determine the size them, or thernumben, Was it not one of the objects of, the Legislature to entrust this Board with the daty of seeing that in locating these stands the least public in- nee practicable should be caused therobs? That ‘ou'd be lecated than the wants ing effect to the objects deciared by the act tobe ite primary aud inaia object, should imperstively require? That cbiect§ is deciared by ihe piaute to be, the furaisbing of em- ployment, so far ng practicable to worthy disabled veldiers, and orphan fous of roidiers who font their Hives or became disabled while serving in the army of the Unived States, in regiments raised in aud accredited to the State of New York.”’ (Id. section L) The provision in section three, requiring the agent nd empioy’s to “be selected exclusively from persous wao may have deen honorably discharged, * * or orphan sons of sueh soldiors,”” may have been inserted merely to require proof of the fact of an bonotable dis. charge oe one item of evidence that the disanied eoldier was worthy, and not to add to the c mentioned in so.tion one, But on this point Ido not Intend to express any opision. How many may apply to this company tor employment, whether tho employes are to be only “worthy disabled soldiers,” or may bo also selected from soldiers bovorably discharged though mot dis- abled, must, at presont, be wholly conjectural, ‘To how mavy applicants employment can be furnished must depend upon the success of the enterprise and the extent of tho business of the corporation. It must be coneluded that the power and authority ted to this Board was conlurred upoo it for the primarily, or mainly, of ering that there po interference with the ordinary uso of tbe not required to enable this corporation to ect the main object of its creation. Thon is it nota joxt inference that the Legietature intended to create, through the instrumentality of this Board, an administrative agency in respect to the number, size and location of these booths, as indicated as the willor the Legisiature?
