10 EUROPE. Radical Democracy in France--Its Platform, Prospects and Apostles. The Ecumenical Council---Foeling of France and Austria. The German mail steamship Hansa, Captain Erickenstein, from Bremen by way of Southampton on the 23d of November, arrived at this port yester- day evening, bringing our special correspondence snd newspaper mail reports, in aetail of our cable telegrams from Europe, dated to her day of sailing. In pursuance of the proclamation of President Grant appointing Thursday, the Isth of November, for a national thanksgiving, apa in accordance with the invitation issued by the commiitee, Messrs. Post, Browne, Shattuck and Tiffany, a large por- tion of the Americans in Vienna, ladies and gentlemen, assembled at six o’clock m the extensive Hall of the ‘Weisses Ross,? which was tastefully decorated for the occasion with the flags of Austria and America, in token of the grow- ing cordiality of the two mations, The busts of the Emperor and Empress of Austria, together with the portrait of General Grant, occupied a conspicuous position amid the ornamentation of the extensive hall, while a band of music gave at appropriate in tervais the national airs of the two countries, At the conclusion of the dinner the Hon. John Jay, the American Minister, in presenting the firet toast, “The President of the United States,” de- livered an eloquent and able hiztorical address, con- elnding in the words “Let us have peace.” ‘he Vienna Wanderer of November 21, in an article on the Eastern question, says:— The diplomatic success of Count Benst in the Egyptian question has been but small, Tne Porte is willing to do everything in its power to jocalise the Insurrection in Austrian Albanta, since such a policy Js dictated by its own Interesis; but with respect to Egypt tt 1s governed by settied principles and relies chigty on Engiaud, . The Inidpendande Belge of November 22 re- ports:— The operations of the Austrian corps darmée ebarged with the repression of the Dalmatian insur- rection do not proceed with the rapidity expected. The troops, divided into four columns, penetrated, not without experiencing great difficulty and suffer- ing severe loss, to the centre of the district of Cri- voscle and took possession of the most important localities. They were, however, stopped before the defiles which lead to the plateaa of Dragail, on the frontier of the Herzegovine. To the south of Cat- taro, in the Zuppa, the column starting from Budna has been obliged to resume the offensive, although that country was believed to be pacified, A Paris letter, in the independance Belge, says:— “People here have been greatly astonished at the attack made by M. de Lesseps at the Ismatiia ban- quet, and in the presence of the Empress, agatust the French government, relative to its refusal to press for a reform in the capitulations, From this circum- stance the conclusion 1s drawn that the famous title of Duke de Suez js burled, _£9E anyself, 1 never at- tached the sligntest importance to that ramor.’? The London Record says that the late Earl of Derby has left a fortune of £190,000 a year. When nis lordsnip succeeded to his estates they were said to be worth £60,000 a year; but the great increase 4s attributed to the wonderful extension of factories in Lancashire, and the consequent enormous increase of bulidings, Pére Hyacinthe has written a letter from New York to Emile de Girardin, in which he says:— J offer up prayers that the cause of liberty may triumph and bear frult in Europe as it does im this noble country, That, with the triumph and fruit- fulness of Christianity, is the sole safety of the present, the sole hope of the future. 1 congratulate you, Monsieur, on the talent you apply to the service of the first of these causes and on the respect which, lacking faith, you accord the second, Lord Justice Giffard, of England, reversed the Gecigion of Commissioner Winslow and decided that the Duke of Newcastle, though @ peer, can be made a bankrupt. Notice of appeal to the House of Lords against this judgment was at once given. The increase of out door poor in London has become so alarming that the Poor Law Board have thought it advisable to issue an important miuute with respect to charitable organizations. FRANCE. The Electoral Struggle and General Political Situation—Platform and Tactics of the “Redw’—Pablic Opinion Against Radicai Democracy—Law and Order—Solid Interests and imperialism. PaRIs, Nov. 20, 1960. It would be avery dificult task to describe the political events of the last week in detail, without fa- tiguing and bewildering your readers, So rapid have been the changes and s0 complicated the mancwuvres, that every morning the observer has been obliged to set his political watch anew, if he wanted to keep time with the current movements of the day. Only & week ago the “reds” were appareatiy in the ascendant in Paris. They thought themselves quite sure of a victory over the government fn the elections Which will begin to-morrow, They boldly deciared thelr programme to ve the ‘overthrow of the Empire and a social revolution.” They selected a8 their candidates notorious revolutiontsts, who refused to take the oath to the actual constitution, and were, therefore, ineligible, but whose election would, therefore, be the triumph of their pro- gramme. Rochefort, Ledra Rollin, Felix Pyat and Barbes—these were the candidates who boasted of being non-jurors, and whom the “reds, public meetings and in all their journals, proclaimed their firm intention to elect at the November elec- tions, and they never doubted ther success for a moment, This was only a week ago. Since then a change of base has occurred of so sweeping a cha- racter that It can only be described as a revolution; but a very diferent revolution from what was Ubreatened and from what was anticipated by those ignorant of the situation, and of the true sentiments and views of the people of Paris and of France, The “reds” themselves have been revolution- wed, their programme of violence over- thrown and their most conspicuous leaders putto flight. Yes; Ledru Rollin, who has published two manifestoes that he thought would throw France into a frenzy of admiration, has withdrawn his name irom the electoral lists only yesterday. Pyat, Barbs, Louls Blanc, all have done the game. The only revolutioniat that willl ran to- morrow 18 Rochefort, and he has become #0 utterly ridiculous, even in the eyes of his own clique, for it cannot be called party, that his election will only bring universal suiTrage into contempt. The journals of the “reds”? are wonderfully chap- fallen, and these historical sans cvlottes are utterly discomfited. Now what has brought about this striking phenomenon in the limited space of time Mentioned is the natural inquiry of my readers. It would really puzzle nine out of ten in Paris at this moment how to auswer that question, There has been no disturbance of any kind to accom- lish it, The government has done notbing to ‘ing it about. The Emperor has been hunting, reviewing and dancing at Compiégne, watch ix only two hours by rail from Paris, and has not spoxea or written a word tending to precipitate the catastrophe Tallude to. Neither the upper, middie nor the work« ing classes of Paris, nor of the departments, haye made # move or given a sign that hag caused the “cloud capped towers’! of the “red party’ to col+ Japse and melt into the air, Yet, results so lmpor- tant ust have a cause, and @ powerlul one too. all ican do towards the solution of this mysterious Problem is to fall back on conjecture. [can give any theory, for as | slate, there are no tacts by which fo explain this mystification, or to prove that oue —_ 4 tore t te Wan another, Solution of the perpiexing theory 13 simply this, Tbe revolutionist party has aise svered thay the Arresiatibie, silent but oranipoient power, known a4 Ps opinion, 1s against them. Caim!y and sternly has coutempiaved with its omniscient eye their mMiserabie antics and their petty pretences, Like wid Geass, under the resolute gaze of their Keeper, they Mave shrunk back and one after another crouched at his feet. The working ciass of Paria, upon whose Co-operation in the atreets the revolutionista sulely to eliects vivicat overthrow of the govern- went, laughed soornfuily in tue facea of the men who that they should give up their abun. dant work aud high wages and sacrilice thelr {iv simply to establish anarchy, with broken down poll. ticlans at fhe head of it. The middle classes of Paris, who endorsed the revolutions of 18% and 1845, have extitited on the present ovcasion such an ardent resoluuion, not to say such a bitter hate to these fomenters of disorder, 80 injurious to the trade and commerce they represent, that the rey igi began to see that their ho; of success. | insurrection were olterly chimerical, and ther NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1869.—TRIPLE SHEET. bravado has been steadily oozing away and their Diuster dying ont. Iti hardly necessary to say what the upper class think or propose In reference to these “red” gentlemen, whose dogmas are pil- lage and assassination. ‘Thus you see the senti- ments and forces of all the classes which constitute the real society of this great metropolis, and the same is equally true as to the country ai large. All are heartily untted against the destructive projects of @ band of unprinctpled men who would gladly wreck the interests, present and fauure, of this prosperous and conten: land, simply to raise themselves to place and power. ‘This wretched minority of cutthroats, for they are nothing more, have bellowed, and threatened, and geaticulated fartously for tho last threo weeks and more, and now, at the end of it, and on the very eve of the elections, we behold them panic stricken and in universal fight. ‘They have discovered, as 1 have sald, that {n every quarter and from every side and every class, nothing bat antipathy and contempt 1s entertained for their projects and their men, In @ word, as already stated, that unseen, but over- whelining, power of public opinion, which ts simply the concentrated expression of the feelings and con- victions of a whole community, has stricken them, ana they have fallen before it like chaff before the wind. ‘This is the key of the whole gituation, This 1s the solution of all the mysteries, surprises and sudden changes of front for the past week. When Ledru Rolin found how the “cat was jump- ing” he cunningly declined to come over to Paria, a3 ‘ne did not wish to raise a riot.”? Oh, no, not be; the archotype of insurrection, Louis Blane, advises no riots, Felix Pyat urges keeping the peace. Every shour { expect a letter from Victor Hugo, in the Aap- pel, calling on the lightning to shiver into frag- ments—da la Victor Hugo—tne calif who would dare to lift his impious hand against order. Now is this not as amusing as it 1s wonderful. But do not imagme that this extraordinary change of tune from dire war to passing peace has been brought about without tremendous convulsions in the ranks of this gabg of conspirators agaist the well being of the country. Not by any manner of means. There have been hot discussions, flercer dissentions and tremen- dous quarrels. Lucktly for France in all time to come the rogues have falien out, and will probably content inemeelyss 4 eilting. gach other. A con- summation devou' wi . ‘The extraordinary break dowa ofthe ‘reds’? has had a most salutary influence upoo the gentlemea who constituie the pualans in that assembly Know ag the “left,”? and head y names pretty wel knowWh now in the States, guch as Jules Favre, Jules Simon, Jules Ferry, Eugene Pelletan, &c. ‘These men would have been delighted to put them- selves at the head of a revolution if it had been pos- sible to gel up such a thing; out seeing by the re- cent experiments of their more plain-spoken brethren, as Rochefort, Rollin, &c., that such ao event is not even to be dreamed of, they have got up & manifesto, giving to Frauce and the rest of man- kind their very important opinton of what ought to ve and what ought not to be done tn this year of race in the way of political changes. One of the aris journals, commenting on this pomosoug manifesio of ‘only twenty-seven members of the minority of tie Assembly, very sensibly remarks that “these gentledién imerely —pro- pose to attack the government on certain political Lopics;: but why do they not suggest some improve- ment to the administration, some reforms of defec- tive Jaws, some possible diminution of onerous taxes, Which would be a relief to the poorer Classes and an advantage to the country at large. Why do they give all their mind and attention to manifestos for their own satisfaction and neglect the matertal well-being of ail other classes? ‘This 1s a common sense view of the palaver of that portion of the Assembly known as the ‘eft. As to who will be elected to-morrow and Monday— for the polls do not close ull the end of the second day—it is really perplexing to predict. There are candidates of every shade, The revolutiouary party will be represented by Rochefort, Cantagre! and Felix Pyat. The republican party without revoluuion wil appear in the persons of E. Arago, Cremieux, Oar- not, both ex-ministers of 1848. The conservative party has its representatives also, but not worth while mentioning, as thelr names are comparatively unknown. Such is the indiference throughout Paris to this election to fill the vacaa- cles in the Assembly that it is expected the vot: Pill be gmail. All classes are so weil satisfied with the good Ler! of the Emperor and the readiness he hag displayed 6 tert the wishes of the country that there 1s no excitement Whateré! OU polttical attuire as in May last, when tMe sion’ [ook place. it has = reat elScusn. en feared that the middle and upper classes would not turn out to vote at all to-morrow and nextday, Lf this should prove to be the case, then there is every probability of the election of the ‘red? Gundidates, which, after all, seems to be the wis of tne middle and upper classes, simply that these men may be effectually voted down in the As- sembiy by overwhelming numbers, and go be proved to be insignificant and contemptibie for harm of any kind, Another singular feature of the day is that the working classed of Paris, who are very fond of practical jokes at times, like ovher peopie, have treated the candidature of Rechefort as @ good bit of fun, and the man has really made himseif so ridicalous in vartous ways that he has lent @ zest to this spirit of mock admiration. He has proposed at public meetings not to pay taxes, and then the government must come to a standstill, “But do you propose to take your salary as deputy ?” cried one of his hearers the other day. ‘Oh, yes,” he replied, “I can't do without that.” “How 1s it to be paid” yelled his interrogator, “if there are no taxes?’ You can perceive how silly this Rochefort has made himself. The common people as well as the rest are !aughing at him, and he may, out of Pure sport, be elected, Just as Morrissey was In the States, tuough Rochefort does not keep “hells,’? but proposes them daily in the shape of revolution. From aii this you must see that ic is almost impossl- bie to foretell who and what will come out of the electoral urn on Monday oe fs Yet it is consoling to think that it is a mavier of no kind of consequence who is elected, as it will have no effect whatever on the present position. What everybody wants is per- fect order. That is the settled point. As for tue rest, the politicians may cackie a4 much aa they please. So says public opinion at present writing. ROME. French Opinion of the Ecumenical Council. (From the Paris Constitutionel, Nov. 23.) * * * The infaliibtiity of the Pope is not a ques- tion of theology, but 1t may, according to the solution g ven to it by the Council, involve, in civil an political matters, decisions contrary to the constitution of modern nations. The governments are therefore quite justified in paying some attention to the subject. The King of Italy, in his opening speech to his Parliament, gave to the nation the assurance that he wili main- tain the jategrity of the rights belonging to the State against a) attempts at clerical usurpation; the Span- ish government aiso replies to the pote of Bavaria relative to the Council that 1t will make its reserve against any resolution of the Church contrary to the laws Of the kingdom. The separation of Church and State would dispense the governments from all those deciarations and precautions. When will the rulers comprehend that truth? The course of the civil power is clear; the question is what will be the conduct of the Church. The attitude of the German episcopacy and of a part of the French bishops authorizes the belief that the partisans of papal infalibility will not triumph without discus sion, That dogma wili give rise to very animated debates, which will be of much longer duration than is supposed—so long, indeed, that things will be Jeft in suspense, and the Council will separate with- out coming to any decision. Such at least is the brobabie denovement. [Rome (Nov, 26) correpondence of the Paris Débats.] The chances appear still to be in favor of the adoption of the principies expressed in the Syllabus and of the prociamation of the Pope's infaliibility. The majority of ishops already assembied here, to the number of 100, declare themseives, it is said, to what effecs, but the greater part are bishops with- out sees, nominated directly by the Holy See, who could not consult flocks which do not exist, and who therefore express ouly a@ personal opinion which may be modified by discussion, if any takes place. The work of Mgr. Maret ia de- cidedly condemned by the Vatican, and com- batted by the Jesuits, It bas not been brought under the ban of the index Expurgatorius, but the fatro- duciion of copies into the capital of the Papal States has been prohibited, You are aware that the custom is to assemble @ consistory shortly before the Christmas /ifes, There was the more reason to believe that the meeting would take piace this year \hat the belief was that the Pope desired to fill up, betore the Council, the vacancies existing ia the Sacred College. It seems a different decision has been come to and that for the moment no promotion of Cardi nats will take place, None of the seventeen, hats how vacant will be, it 18 supposed, distributed before the Easter of next year. L[ feel some hesita- tion In telling you what are the reasons for tis ab- steution, because they touch on persons whom it is aiways so delicate to approach. However, as itis ty duty to keep you acquatated with current ramors, 48 weil as with facts, with all reserve, I decide to the echo of the public voice, We are assured, then, that the court of Rome feels a certain ugnance to invest with the purple @ caudi- te (Arcibishop of Paris) who has been for along time recommended by a powertal foreign sovereign; and as it is held vo be essential at the Vatican not to disoblige, especially at this moment, @ protector so highly placed, all promotion to the cardinalate is postpoued, in order not to offend bis Susceptibility. As to tie motives of this dlsinclina- tion, it is iufinitely easier for you to divine than for ine to eXpiain ‘them. To those causes, already old, there have been added others more recent. Let us hope that the presence in Rome of the pre- late concerned wil be suiicient to dissipate unjust prejudices. ‘The arrival of strangers ull continues to be moderate, with the exception of ecclesiastics. Many apartments are to be let, and most of the hotels are aa yet anything but full, Nawbers of ap- plications, however, are now received by the bankers dealing with foreigners, for Lascia-passare, which are gratuitously granted by the Minister of the Papal finances to avoid the annoyances of the Cus- em House both at the frontiers and at the gates of ome, {from the Wanderer of Vienna, Nov. 22.) Though few serps results are expected from the December ecclesiastical assembiy iv attracting more and more the attention of the political world. A correspondent of the Augsburg Gazetlc writes from Kome vo that journal that vow, as in the tine of the Council of Constance, two parties stand opposite to each other in the Eternal City. ¢ f these main- tains the doctrine that “the Pope is superior to the Council, which represents, 60 to speak, the Holy Father's assessor;’ while the other insists that “the attribute of tnfallibility does not belong to te Pope, but to the Church assembled in Council.” In the expression, “the Pope is the ministering Nead (caput ministeriale) of the Churen,’’ the hier- archical absolutists lay the stress on the head and id the ocbers on the minister. it is known to wiat couvests (rifles like these gave rise at the couggis of Basel and Ferrara. The Paria Léderté lately pub- lished a letter from Rome which gave some curious articulars about the parties in the coming council. rdinal Antonelli, it is stated, will have nO influence whatever, 1 rode, to his own great disappointment, just as little. On the other band, the foreign pre- lates seem likely to be the masters of the situation. Dupanloup will play @ very important part, and Deschamps, Bishop of Malines, will be the leader of the Belgian clergy. The bisnops of Fulda will form @ group by themselves, which will comprehend the majority of the German bisho) Finally, the Jesuits will rally to their standard all who desire to elevate the Syllabus into 8 creed, and who are convinced or alfect Co be so, that the personal infaliibility of the Pope wil be the crowning glory of the Catholic ecclesiastical constitution. In spite of all the efforts of the last named party, however, it cannot pe doupted that many of the ctergy will decime to march in leading strings. SUBURBAN INTELLIGENCE. NEW JERSEY. Jersey City. Tue TRIAL OF TAB JUSTICES OF THE PEACE WhO pleaded aot guilty to the indictment found against them will be taken up at the close of this week, The criminal business of the Quarter Sessions at this term has been unusually large. ESCAPED FROM THE ALMSHOUSE,—A woman named Mary McCann was arrested in the streets yesterday for acting ina wild manner, She was found to be insane and escaped from the County Almsbouse lately. She wili be conveyed thither to-day, ANOTHER ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—Yesterday after- noon & shoemaker, about thirty-five years old, at- tempted to jump into the river from the ferryboat on his passage from New York.

At prenent the people of Jersey City are entirely cut off yy the basin from this depot, and the journey thither woud cecupy almost the same space as a trip to Newark by the New Jersey Railroad, Tnis long neeed imbrovement is at last proposed, but the present Council will hardly take it up. THE NEW CiTy.—Three candidates are already in the tleld for the Mayoralty of the consolidated city, one of whom is from Bergen. Mr. Leon Abbett 15 set down as the Speaker of the House of Assembly atthe approaching session of the Legislature. He 1s also the most prominent candidate tor Cor} ore tion Attorney on the democratic side in thé néw city. The map which is being prepared for the now sireets in Bergen will be completed in February. The opening of Montgomery street from the Hudson to the Hackensack river will be commenced early in March. The inequality of representation on the consolidation committee from Jersey, Bergen and Hudson cities has not yet been amended, and the deliberations of that body will accordingly lose much of thetr weight with the people of Jersey City. The work of opening the Boulevards will be vigorously prosecuted during the ensuing spring, THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.—A petition signed by a large number of teachers in the pubitc schools will be pre- sented at the meeting of the Board of Education this evening, asking for the removal of the Normal School to Public Schooi No. 1, in York street, this being tho Most convenient for the teachers.

Darina Rar OF BURGLARS—SHaRP CONFLICT WITH THE POoLIcE.—About half-past one o'clock yesterday morning the police on duty near the ferry caime in contact with a gang of five robbers, and some of them narrowly escaped death at the hands of the invaders, A few hours previously the thieves were seen coming ont of the ferryhouse and roceeding towards the office of the Hoboken Land mprovement Company, which seemed a fine field for their operations. Oficers Dooley, Kivien and Jacobus hovered near the place till midnight, when the watchman at the office rushed out excited y and informed officer Kivien that to prevent any alarm nis dog bad been choked by the burglar, who were then about to sack the house. Te policemen immediately went to the _ place, but the thieves nad become aware of their approach, and were now decamping up Hudson street. The oificers followed and fred their revolvers at the gang. This was responded to by the fugitives, and the police kept firmg till their revolvers were exhauste. At the corner of Second street the burgiars turned suddenly around snd, with the utmost precision, fired a volley at their pursuers, and, finding it ineffectual, scattered in ditferent directions. They wore light shoes, and all efforts to capture them were useless. One of them, however, continued his fight through Hudson street, and was crossed upon by oMcer Carroll, who fired the contents of his shooter at him, The ruffian fired twice at htm. and one of the shots grazed his leftarm. On entering the Bremen gate the thief was caught bs a Custom House officer and soon conveyed to the police station. He gave his name as Thomas Casey, and is a desperate looking cha- racter, of about twenty-eight years. ‘he two p'stols which he had thrown across ‘a tence were discov- ered, as well as the toois of his associates, Among tne latter were @ number of sharp chisels, heavy ‘Jimmies’ and maliets, two packages of powder, several yards of fuse, a dark lantern and several skeleton key The prisoner was arraigned before Recorder Pope and refused to declare anything ex- cept his name. Many citizens crowded the station during the examination and manifested no littie ex- citement. Casey was committed to the county jal on @ charge of attempting to kill oficer Carroll, which seems most likely to be substantiated against him, The gang is well Known to Captain Donovan, who has had his eye on then for some time, and it 18 ey provavie they will soon again pay a visit to joboken.

He is at present iucarce- rated on three different commitments, for eight, ten and seven years respectively. A BuRGLAR BHOT—SMALL Hore oF fis RE COVERY.—About midnight on Thursday, a8 a Miss Hawkins, residing near St, Peter’s church, in West- chester village, was in the act of retiring she dis- covered @ light in the vestry room, and having her suspicions aroused by the lateneas of the hour called Up @ man servant and gent htm to apprise the sex- ton, Mr. Butler. He was soon ready, when the two, cautiously approaching the churen and peering in at the open window, discovered a man with @ dark lantern and most iadustriously employed In cutting out one of the panels of the door leading from the vestry into the audience room. Mr. Butler quickly raised his revolver, and taking as d aim as he could in the uncertain light fired, piercing scream told that the ball had taken effect, and Mr. Butier hurried after Justice Baldwin. In the mean- ume Mr, Terrell procured a gun and kept watch over the window, not knowing how many marauders might be inside, Soon a man’s head was seen com- ing out, when ratsing bis gun, which was filled with smail shot, he fired, and the fellow without utrering @ word threw up hig arms and fell back into the room. By this time Mr, Rutier had returned with the Justice, and the three proceeded into the vestry. Here they found the poor rascal rolling and groan- ing in his agony, his scalp and face blackened, disfig- ured and periorated with small shot, and one leg para- jyzed irom the eifects of the ball that had entered his side. A quaatiy of skeleton keys and burglars’ tools were found in his possession. He seemed hen crazed and begged piteously for his lite, corl- stantly crying out that ne was sure the devil brought him there. Surgeon (lita was summoned and his wounds, but failed, alter repeated probing, to extract the ball from his side. He gave his name as James Alexander Latham, and atlirmed that this was his first offence, Of course little credence is given to the fellow’s story, and as Westchestrians have suffered so much from the depredations of this class of gentlemen of late, Mr. Latnam’s sutfer- ings awakened no sympathy, and he was accoraingly hurried off to Whit ins, tO await the action of the Grand Jury shoald he live. “Tioxe Tae HoDsoN.

One of the journais on the tender ‘worked hot’? all the way down to Hudson, where it was partially cooled. After Aeevinge Hud. gon and while crossing Livingston’s bridge south of Oakhill, Stranndhan stepped between the tender and engine, and, leaning over, looked back to see if the journal was swoking. In an instant his head came in contact with the side or tresselwork of tne bridge and he was knocked into the river. His fireman saw the poor feliow just a8 his beels were leaving the tender and then it was too late to render assistance. The train was. Bopeed, and 4 man sent back but the body could not be found. Sunday mor! @ Dumber of engineers left East Albany on a8} engine for the spot, Arriving there searct was unmediately instituted for the remains and they were @nally found in the water ketween two of the abutments of the bridge. There was a deep gash three incnes in length on the forehead and one leg was brokea. Sadly his comrades placed the remains of their dead friend on the locomotive and conveyed them to Hudson, where the services of an undertaker were procured and the body placed in a box and taken to Albany. The funeral will probably take piace to-morrow. Deceased was between thirty-tive and forty years of age and a married man, but leaves no children, He hud been ten years in the employ of the company and was in every way considered a gareful, competent man. Tbe oe, = oh sv LONG isLAND. CorREvTION.—In the report of the recent fire at Dutch Kills it was stated that the same originated in Joseph Grandmalier’s drug store. This it seems was a mistake, as the fire was the work of an in- cendiary and commenced in a vacant buliding ad- joining. Focnp DROWNED aT Bay RipG E.—Justice Bennett held an inquest on the body of a man found in the water at Bay Ridge yesterday.

OssTRUCTING THE NorTAsiDE RatRoap. For upwards of two weeks some malicious individual has been attempting to precipitate the trains on the Flushing and Northside Raiiread from the track by placing heaps of large timers upon the track. On Saturday an attempt of this nature was made, but the engineer observed the ovstruction and re- versed his englue in time to prevent an accident. FREE ROADS AND BRIDGES IN QUEENS COUNTY.— For more than thirty years the turnpikes of Queens county have been obstructed with voligates and bridges, through which those who passed were obliged to pay six to eight cenis. The people have, ume and again, remonstrated agaist this, not merely for the sake of the few pennies thug ex- pended, but on account of the great inconvenience and annoyance which itoccasioned, ‘Those from the cities whule riding for pleasure have experi- enced this nuisance to such an extent that they at length forsook the route of their favorite drives and turned their attention to some other less annoying lautuae. The peopie of Queens county begin to see that by the existence of tnese tolls their interests are sacrificed, and that so long as they exist the more extensive inast be their loss, ‘The peopie, therefore, are rising, and are about in- stituting such measures as will eventually annihilate this impediment to progress and enterprise. Tne most promiment men in the county are moving In the matter, and at their head are to be tound Supervisor Lawrence, District Attorney Downing, Horatio Park, Citnton Graham, John D. Loke and upwards of 200 otners. In accordance with the resolutions adopted at a meeting held to initiate the matter the several towns have calied ineetings to select delegates to a county convention, which will be heid on the isth inst.

OFFICIALS V8, POLITICIANS—$75,000 FoR CON- STRUCTING TWO MILES OF RoaD.—Probably one of the most interesting events in the political annals of cael = Queen’ county was an occurrence which took place in the chamber of the Board of Supervisors on Saturday. The people of Newtown being aesirous of having a road from that piace to Bilasville, received authority from the last Segisiature to take the necessary steps to secure their object. By some politcal conniving the commission found its way into the Newtown political ring. The work was completed, and on Saturday the comm’ssion appear. ed before the Board of Su isors and demanded $75,000 for constructing the two miles of road. The Supervisora jooked surprised, their fingers | nae through thetr well greased hair and they eld @ private conference, Taney concluded tne chatge Was exorbitant and believed the work per- formed not to be worth more than $30,000. The poll- tictans swore, threatened fagellations dire and pain- ful if the Board did not endorse their demands, but the Fathers were not to be intimidated and concluded w the commission $26,000, The commis- demanded several thousand dollars for macadamizing the road, but the Board refused to allow them a single dollar, believing it to be unwarranted by law, The Commissioners railed worse than ever, and the matter comes before Judge Gilbert to-morrow. Two of the Commissioners had bills of $800 for work performed In the capacity of ec- retaries, The Supervisors bolted again, and they were allowed nothing. The Surveyor had @ biil of $2,000, but the Supervisors cut it down to $500. The papers served on the Board to sper before Judge Gilbert to show cause Why they should not pass the bills aro signed by James A. Johnson, Gustave Suerdorf and Joseph Rice, commissioners of the road, THE DOXE ART UN.OR, The Doré Art Union hag already become, at 687 | Browdway, the fasuionable resort of all in search of | attractive holiday presents.
