THE NEXT SENATORS. & Reported Bargain with Governor Tilden.- ‘The one day in the year most interesting to political aspirants—the day big with the fate of party nominees— 4s rapidly approaching, and will be on us, probably, ‘betore many of us fully understand the situation or have made up our minds in what manner duty requires ‘us to exercise the clective franchise, Three weeks from the day after to-morrow, Tuesday next, those im- portant litle billets that decide the fate of parties and governments will be peddied out by the active workers of the several election districts from little wooden sBhanties on the sidewalks—the sentry boxes of liberty— well plastered over with advice how to vote, in large type, and with glowing descriptionsgof the merits of ‘the opposing candidates in display lines, The grave and decorous inspectors and canvassers will sit sedately be- fore their glass boxes—those fatal enemies of “stuffers” — receiving the ballots of the free aud independent voters, native and naturalized, who walk up to the polls once a year with the collars of the party leaders around their necks and the mistaken belief that they are exercising their own will in their hearts, The challengers will be on guard, looking sharply after the interests of their respective parties and doing their best to protect the purity of the elective franchise so far as the opposition isconcerned. Our respected fellow citizens from the Emerald Isle, who, in the glorious old days when Swee- By Planted and Tweed watered, used to vote early and Vote often, will gather in little knots on the sidewalks in the neighborhood of the polling places, discussing politics, denouncing the law which closes the “con- vayniant” liquor stores, and by their unwearied attendance from sunset to sundown making up for the many lost days in their earlier lives, when they had no votes to cast. ‘Mister Policeman’? will be on duty, looking wise enough to induce the belief that he might actually catch a thief if he didnot run too fast, and “preserving the public peace” by the influence of his presence, In short, three weeks from next Tuesday the State clection will be upon us, and when the sun takes her diurnal dip in the golden stream in the west ‘on that day the people of New York will have decided who shall fill our State offices, preside in our courts of law aud justice, prosecute our criminals and sit upon our dead bodies for the respective terms then to be filled. TRE RUBBLING OF THR CALDRON. As that eventful day draws nearer and nearer, the heat of its approach causes the political caldron to oil and bubble, and “makes things hot,” as the saying is, for those who are anxious to dip their ladles in the soup. The aspirants for office, their supporters and those whose mission, like that of Macbeth’s, is to “Kill! kill! kill!’ are as busy as bees in a hive, baild- ing up their receptacles for official honey, or as grass- hoppers iu a wheat fleld, leaving havoc in their track. Leaders begin to dodge down back streets, to disappear mysteriously out ofside doors and to wrap themsélves up ina cloak of secrecy under which the slates pre- pared for the faithful party conventions are carefully concealed, Our reform Governor, abandoning for a | time the favorite field of canal prosecutions, re- ceives shadowy forms at his Gramercy Park mansion, | who glide in with noiseless steps, after the fashion of | the conspiracy courtiers or La Grande Duchesse—‘‘ce pas—ce pas—ce petit, petit pas!”—and breathe infor- ‘mation in the Gubernatorial ear or receive whispered instructions from the Gubernatorial lips. Bolder vis- | {tors enter the spacious hall and the sacred library who come to proffer advice, to utter words of warning, to | make bold remonstrances, to solicit aid and intluence, ‘or to get “posted;” but the reform Governor is found } dy them to be too busy with canal matters to permit him to pay any attention to or intertere im our local nominations, Mayor Wickham shuts himself up in the Executive Champer, guarded by the renowned Tammany Wiskinskic, invisible to callers and drinking in deep draughts of Executive | wisdom from the exhoustiess fount of President Jeff Davis’ accomplished secretary. The few who manage ‘to corner and catch the Mayor soon discover that he knows nothing. Boss Kelly is grimly retigent, and | when approached by aspirants or questioned by seekers after knowledge explains that the conventions make the nominations and that he declines to interfere with ‘their work and is unaware of their intentions. The trustworthy individuals who are engaged in {‘fxing things” for the head centres or bosses rush bithor and thither in perspiring and agitated excitement, but when questioned are entirely ignorant of what 4s going on. Tom Dunlap is oily with innocence and shines all over with political simplicity. Meanwhile ‘the uneasy “bi rush backward and forward, from | leader to jeader, from emissary to emissary, from office | to office, besceching here, protesting there, and feeling | that they are wholly at the mercy of tho slatemakers | of the inner tempie and biave nothing to do themselves but to yield bind obedience to the behests of jess than | Baif a dozen “bosses” and to vote the regalar ticket, | like good. and faithful “dimmycrats,” at the polls, HOW THE SLATES HAVE BEEN FIXED Notwithstanding the ogre-like grimness ot O'Kelly, the smooth and placid apathy of the Governor, the natural knownothingness of the O'Wickbam and She general mysu e velops the ‘insiders,’ it is | very weil kuown that the Tammany “slates” have been ‘duly made up by the leaders, and that all the offices, | ar nearly all, to be by the votes of the people of New York in a little over three weeks from to-day a tee already partitioned among the faith- | ful, so far #5 the democratic nominationsare concerned. | There may be some alterations in tie programme, nota- | bly with regard to the Recorder's nomination, as | shere is a strong feeling, shared in by many of’ tho | leaders of lesser note that the policy of throwing Re- | corder Hackett overboard merely on personai grounds, | Wecause he has neglected to make bumble sub- | mission to the present Tammany régune, is @ dangerous one to pursue, and may lead | © ap Uprising of the citizens against ‘Tammany fad the defeat of the county ticket Mr. Join Kelly | ‘8 by no means satisfied that the foreshadowed dan- | ie wholly imaginary, and us success is most | essential to him this autumn, and as prudent leader. ship dictates the importance of uniting, con- solidating and strengthening the democratic army at this particular time, he may yet allow the Democratic Convention to respond to the eta the jarge majority of the democratic party My placing Ke- corder Teche on the ticket. But at te present mo- ‘nent Mr. Frederick Smythe (with a y and ane), a | highly but fot very extensively known lawyer, is stated as Jobn Kelly's experimental Re- | corver, in place of the able and experienced incumbent of that important position. For District Attorney Mr. Kelly presents the name of P. G. Olney, another young lawyer, who bas practised in this city, and is, no doubt, | an able and ros gentleman. A strony effort is being made to “slate”? Mr. John J. Townsend, the | counsel of the Crime Investigating Committee, for the | District Attorneyship, and the Mayor, it is said, favors | that nomination. The point is still an open one on this oiies as between these two candidates, THE SURROGATH'S OFFICR. Yor the Surrogate’s office Mr. Kelly presents the | mame of a dr, D.C. Calvin. It is singular to tind the *Hoss”’ a follower of Calvin; but so it 18, and the atten- | tion of the Church should be directed to the fact, M | D. C, Calvin is not from the District of Columbia, as his initials, joined with the well known interpretation put | on “home rule” by the Tammany leaders, might imply. | ‘He has practised law in this city, although it is said he came to us not long ago from an honest rural district. | He is to be put on the Tammany ticket in place of the | present Surrogate, Judge Hutchings. This is in accord- ance with tbe ‘principle adopted by “Boss” Kelly | the | of setting aside all judicial © officers who | have particularly distinguished themselves for integrity, honesty and ability on the Bench Jt is just possibile that the Tammany leader regards a | Judge as ho regards a member of the Tammany General Committee, and believes that the aprightness and o pacity of tlie judiciary are best measured by their pol teal usefulness, Such ideas, it is well known, havo watled in Tammany in the past, and it would’ not be ing if Mr, Keily had imbibed them during his friendly association with former Tarmmany leaders, At ali events Surrogate Hutchings is to go overboard and he will leave bebind him—if, indeed, he should not be re-elected on a poople’s ticket—an excellent record, | both as to uprightwess and ability in an ollice in which those qualities are essential. ON THR BENCH GENERALLY. The office of City Judge, created by the law of the fast sess jee new one, and for this ex-Ony Judge Gupving is pushed by the reform element of Tammauy, Mr. Kelly, however, is said to favor ex Judge Spencer, and Mr. Algernon 8. Sullivan is also a ominent candidate, Judge Bedford made an excel Ire City Judge when in office, but this may not be con- g#idered in his favor by the Tammany ¢late makers. | For the otber courts she present Judges will mainly b Fenominated.

Judge Alker is also warmly by his friends, and his nomination would no doubt add to the respectability and tone of the Tammany ticket, But neither of these candidates is at present “slated” by the Boss of the blackboard, For Coroner there are ahost of candidates, the downtowners standing up maufully for ex-Coroner Flynn, but the choice of the dictators bemg said to be George W. Morton, THE SENATORIAL SLATE. The Tammany Senatorial slate is said to be finally settled. It is Senator Fox in the’ Fourth, 5. P. Nichols in the Fifth, Assemblyman James Daly in the Sixth, J. W. Gerard in the Seventh and E. P. Wheeler in the Eighth. The nomination of John Fox is huiled how!- ingly in the “Fust wad;”” but as there is a democratic majority of about 18,000 in the district the Tamanny nominee is tolerably certain of success. Still there will be a strong feeling of dissatistaction at the nomination in the district, the personal fight be- tween the Fox and Muller interests having been bitter, and this ill temper may display itselt damagingly against the Tammany county ticket, should there be a united opposition, although it is not likely to prevail against the Senator, Last year in this same district, Senator Fox arove the nails into Jemmy Hayes’ coflin. ‘This year the positions are reversed. Fox is again the Bet.of the Tammany rulers, and Jemimy Hayes, “the jonorable John,” and their ‘friends may attend at the funeral of Tammany’s political judges. Mr. 5. P. Nichols, who is slated for the Fifth Senatorial district is proprietor of the Twenty-third street stage line; bat itis tobe hoped that should he go to the Senate he would not prove an enemy to a more rapid description of transit. Mr, James Daly won the regard of Governor ‘Tilden and Mr. Ottendorfer in the last Assembly, he’ his promotion. Mr. Gerard’s nomination will be a good one. Mr. E. P. Wheeler, who runs in Senator Moore’s place, is the son of Mr. Ira Wheeler, the tery leader of the Know Nothing party in New York, whose ubhor- Tence was an Irishman and whose bagbear was a Cath- olic Church. ‘The Assembly nominations are still in th “grab bag” of the wigwam, although in some dis- tricté matters are uo doubt as good us “iixed.”” In the Nineteenth, the nine miles of the district are boiling over with wrath at the report that a Mr. Ecclesine, a new comer, is the favorite of the ‘Boss’? for the Assembly, while the “old restdenters” wish the nomination of Mr. J. 'T. King, one of the fathers of the the district. In the Sixteenth Assembly district the leaders are pressing the honors of the Assembly on the modest and blusiung General Frank Spinota,“wtose ambitioh was directed toward the Upper House, They declare that the General’s experiénce in legislation would be useful in the ‘Assembly, while in cage of a general fight in the city his shirt collar, renowned on the field of battle, might answer the purposes of a dag of trac A TRADE WITH THK GOVERNOR, ‘The positive xing of the Senatorial slate, it is said, was occasioned by a bargain between the Governor of the first part and the O'Kelly and O’Wickham of the other part, Governor Tilden was to select the Se tors, and in return he was to serve up to the Ma; Tammany the heads of the Police Commissioners in a basket, ‘This arrangement is said to have led to the letters addressed by the Mayor to the Police Commis- sioners, THI REPUBLICAN CALDRON. ‘The republican caldron has not yet b although an auti-Custom House ripple may here and there lave trembled on the surface of ils contents. Indeed, the course of the republicans will depend greatly on the question whether an anti-Tammany movement will or will not be inauguara In case Recorder Hackett should be thrown over by the republicans it is believed that the attempt to drive him from the Bench will prove the signal for a popular uprising that will solidily al! the anti-Tammany elements, In that event O’Mor- rissey will be on the warpath in earnest; the young sun to simmer, 0°Creamer will buckle on his armor; Von Schafer will appear in his iron-pointed helmet, with his big sword between his legs and his canteen at his back; Jemmy Hayes will draw his rapier; Billy Waish will strip to the waists and a general free fight will ensue. In that event, with the whole press of New York, with one exception, in favor of the people's candidates, the overthrow of ‘Tammany will be assured, HEADS OFF, MAYOR WICKHAM ANDTHE POLICE COMMIS- SIONERS—HE DEMANDS ‘THEIR scALPs— YOORHIS OFFERS HIS HEAD COVERING. When on Friday afternoon the news Jeaked out that Mayor Wickham had sent a communication to each of the Police Commissioners, requesting his resignation to be handed in, great was the excitement among the politicians, Many questioned the truth of the report, believing it too good to be truc, while others, better informed in political matters, accepted it as ac- curate. Onevery hand the Mayor was besieged by anxious inquirers, eager to learn of its authenticity or ofits untruthfulnesa, To every one, however, His Honor returned evasive answers, showing plainly by his demeanor that the report was not without some foundation in fact. Magnates of Tammany Hall ap- peared to be as much in the dark as those outside the pule of the wigwam, A wise shake of the head or an expressive shrug of the shoulders generally formod their answers to those approaching them for confirmation of the rumors. At Police Headquarters an ominous silence prevailed, ‘The Commissioners remained in their respective rooma in a state of semi-tsolation, The halls and corridors presented an appearance of animation rarcly witnessed, Each fresh arrival from the City Hall or down town was quickly buttonholed and the anxious, “What is it?’ put by a score of news seekers. A dozen different Tumors were afloat. Some wiseacres took themselves to deny in toto the truth of the reports, Others asserted that the communications referred merely to the charges preferred by Mr. Twohy against the Commissioners, while others had it that the mysterious documents were in relation to the charges made by Mr. Townsend, the counsel of the Assembly Investigating Committee. To all theori objection ere raised, None of them fur- nished sufficrent cause for the extraordinary reticence maintained on the part of the members of the Beard. Interviews with the various Commissioners by re. porters elicited not A strict and tantalizing silence reigned everywhere. , NEWS PROM THE HALL ‘Yesterday new life w ven to the ramors by an ap- parently well autheuticated report coming from the Mayor's office to th Commissioners of Po! called for their unqualified re- , and that Commissioners Stith and Voorhis ned To get at the truth of the porter Waited on His Honor yester- day afternoon and requested a copy of the letters or communications if any had been forwarded, The Mayor admitted that he had on the day previous sent a letter of an important naturo to each of the P Commissioners, but he declined for the present, grving the correspondet tion and he felt in courtesy to that gentleman bound to have it corrected before making it public, Whether the communication was one preferring charges or whether it called for the resignation of the members of the Board the Mayor would not say, but by Monday he thought he would be able to reveal their contents, coma . was found in his sanctum atthe Central Office, busily engaged iu official duties. When approached ‘on the subject by the reporter he gazed into vacancy and, | with an awful gravity, slowly auswered, “I have noth: ing to say.”” Reporter—Is it true, Mr. Matsell, that you have tendered your resignation ? “What! tender my resignation with barges pending over my head?"’ thundered the aged policeman, girding himee:f up in his chair and showing unusual activity, ‘No, sir; novl. Why, that would be a virtual admis- sion thatI am guilty, when Iam not, No, sir (with emphasis); you may contradict every report that Ihave 1 stand ly to be investigated. Forty years of my life have been spent in the service of the city, and I cannot afford for the sake of my reputation to siep down and out until the charges preferred by Townsend, Twohy and everybody else are investi. gated.” “Mr, Matsell, have you any objection to state the nature of the recent communication from the Mayor?’” inquired the reporter, “I will say this,’’ answered Mr. Matsell: “I have re- ceived a letter from the Mayor, but it is one which I consider solely personal, It was noteven sent me in an official envelope; and, more than that, it is marked ‘Personal.’ Now, I cannot in honor divul; what ts and should be treated as personal. If t Mayor's letter was an official document I would unhe: twtingly, if cailed upon, make it public. If His Honor chooses to make it public I will have violated no confi- dence; but, for my part, I cannot stato its nature.” In anewer to further questions Mr. Matsell would not deny that the communication was one requesting hia Tesignation; neither would he admit that it preferred charges of an important nature, The entire mater, he said, rested with his counsel, COMMISSIONER DISRECKRR was foand even less communicative than his colleague, _a''No, sir.” be brusquely said, when approached; “I Will not give for publication a copy of the Muywr's letter to me, neither will [ admit that I have received a letter; more than that, I will absolutely say nothing on the subject.” Whereupon the hero of the Hgriem flats resolved himeeif into a state of sphinxeike silence, COMMISSIONER VOORHIS. ‘Po tearn, if possible, something defi missioner Vourhis, our reporter proceeded quarters. “Commissioner Voorhis, it is carrently reported and generally believed that you have tendered your resig- nation to the Mayor in answer to his letter of Friday, Is this correct?” asked the writer. “Surely aun not re “Then “f did nd to his ponaibie for the stories circulated aboutme,’? nu deny the report!” say that, Ineither deny nor admit it.

To rae Epiror or tHE HeRacp:— Ihave been watching the revelations made by the Assembly Committee on Crime with a great deal of in- terest, but 1 am persuaded that if their inquiries are to have any practical value they must be directed toward the discovery of the faults and weaknesses of police management in this city, In this respect my own ex- periences with the Police Department in a recent case may be of some importance. On the 12th of August Miss Adelaide Lennox, an English actress of repute, re. siding in this city, was robbed of her jewelry, worth about $2,500, Iheard of the robbery within three hours of its occurrence, and at once communicatéd the fact to the police, together with the name and a description of the thief, At the station house in Twentieth street, where I went to make the complaint, I was received by Ser- geant Lane, who heard my story with the utmost in- differeace. I have no doubt he receives everybody in the sume manner. Although I told him the thiefs name, which is Charles Odell, a professional tramp, with bow legs and a broken nose, who had somehow i sinuated himself into the house where Miss Lennox re- sided, he manifested no disposition whatever. to assist in the thief’s capture and coolly told me he would send an officer to see the young lady in the morning, Had the proper measures been taken at once Odell might have been captured the same night, but every oppor- tunity was afforded. him to escape, while the lazy Sergeant was getting ready to get ready to look for him As it was only about six o'clock at the time, I gently protested against this leisurely arrangement, and Sergeant Lane finally consented to give the case into the hands of the detective during the evening. This he did, and about hulf-past nine o'clock Officer Leahy, formerly of the Central Office, called at Miss Lennox’s residence. 1 have no objection to urge against this officer person, ally; indeed, of all those with whom I camne in contract while looking after this case, he was the only one who showed either proper interest or sufficient intelligen But his selection to work upa case of this magni- tude shows the complete imbecility of our police management, Sergeant Lane ‘could not have ex- pected the officer to find the thief, or even to try to find him, for Mr. Leahy was charged with watching all the empty houses in the Sixteenth precinct, which just then took up all his time, and he was not relieved of this duty by Captain Tynan that he might be able to bestow some attention upon the other case. Discouraging as this beginning was,“ met with no better fortune at the Central Oilice or at the hands of Superintendent Walling, ‘About the same time that Offlcer Leahy was begin- ning his investigations at Miss Lennox’s residence com- plaint was made to Inspector Thorne at the Central Office. The inspector at once detailed Detéc- tives Kennedy and Reilly to work up the case, One of these officers, Mr. Kennedy, called on the young Indy in the morning, and I also had an rtunity of meeting him. 1 was very much im- pressed with his amiability, but even more with his want of ability, and so I called upon Superintendent Walling to ask’ him to take'a personal interest in the case, I was influenced to make tt number of considerations, Miss Lennox was out of her country, aud, being at once a stranger and a woman, she was doubly needfal of assistance. She was not in @ position to offer a reward tor her property, and I knew that without a reward the recovery of the stolen jewels would scarcely be attempted wu! perintendent showed some solicitude in the I was so distrustfal of the ability of the detectives that I thought my appeal would indice Mr. Walling to see to it that tne officers went properly to work, even if he could not detail abler men for the service, The re- sponse was an absolute refusal to take any interest in the case, or to make any effort ‘except the assistance which the two officers named could afford, Being thus thrown back upon the detectives, I sought Mr. Kenuedy, who informed me that he had not yet founda starting point for his investigations, 1 gave him all the infor mauon jn my power—intormation of — which he confessed” himself ignorant, although it had long before been imparted to the Po- lice Department. I also informed him from whom he could obtain a more complete knowledge of the thief, and he promised me to act at once in the matter. Seve- ral days elapsed and I heard nothing more of the case except from Olficer Leahy, who informed me that he believed he had a clew to Odell’s haunts, and that he could put his hands upon the thief at almost any mo- ment, ‘This hope soon vanished, however, and there was nothing left except an appeal to the Police Com- missionera. Practically that appeal was as idie as any of the efforts which had preceded it, and up to the present time nothing has been heard either of the thief or the property. I have, however, to thank Mr. Voor- his for a kindly zeal and interest in Miss Lennox’s be- half, and I am gure that if the Commissioner or any Com- missioner had any influence with the department the thief would have been captured and the property re- y thing which yet remains to be related is my interview with Commissioner Voorhis, Superimtendent Walling being present, Mr. Walling’s presence was ccidental, but it afforded me an excellent opportunity of showing the Commusstoner, out of the Superintend- ent’s own mouth, how carelessly the business at the Central Oillce is done, More than a week had elapsed, | and yet the Chief of Police was compelled to admit that he knew nothing of the case except what had been told him in the begin- ning, the detectives having made no report since the case had been placed m their hands, At this point I suggested to the Commissioner that, for all the Superintendent knew, neither of the officers had been doing anything in the matter, and I further showed him that it was likely they had done nothing, because nedy had failed to do that which he promised ‘Mr, Walling also admitted that both the detectives were without experience, Mr. Kennedy having been on the force only a short time and M ferent person from Detective a patrolman but recently hearing all this Mr. Voorhis took an interest gn tho case, and for a day or it “looked as if something would be but nothing was accomplished. The reason for promoted, active he failure wae in the fact that the t de. pended upon subordinates who were ifted for their positions, aud these subord! n to try to find the thief, If every case that is presen our municipal police i# managed in the sume way which T have no doubt, it j ‘ietle wonder so 1 | criminals e ny d, from ny own experience, that the vores im both imeapable and idle, and that the Superintendent ie a good-nutured | grandmother, and in every way wnlitted for the position he holds. A CITiZ) Nuw Yorx, Oct. 6, THE FERRY WAR—AN INDIGNATION MEETING LAST NIGHT AT STAPLETON, STATEN ISLAND. A mass meeting of about 3,000 citizens of Staten Island was held yesterday evening in Stapleton Park There was much enthusiasm manifested before and during the meeting. Cannons wete fired at short inter- vals and fireworks of various kinds were sent off, Dr. William C. Anderson was elected chairman of the meeting, andin taking the chair made a jew appro- priate remarks, Mr. W. M, Mullen was the first speaker. He etated the object of the meeting to be to carry out their prin- ciples of free and equal rights to all. “Commodore Vanderbilt” (groans and sneers), said he, “has isolated us from all the world. He has left us in a miserable | condition, (Cries of ‘That's so!’) He wants to make this place only an abode for the wealthy. We want rapid transit and cheap transit,” | He was succeeded by Justice Garrett, who said that | in his opinion it was the duty of all men to go hand in hand to wipe out the Vanderbilt monopoly and to sup- port Garner. Mr. William M, Mullen then read a series of resolu- tions, which were unanimously adopted. | Dr. Anderson then spoke to the meeting, indorsing | the resolutions whicb bad been adopted. After the meeting a procession was formed of all the persons who had taken part in it. They marched around the park and tbrough the town to the D. Ry Martin dock. Here several national airs were played, after which the party broke up. By 4 | usual quiet of a conntry town had s places where there had been r scenes. A BLAZE IN BROOKLYN. DESTRUCTION OF AN IMMENSE BUILDING IN | THE EASTERN DISTRICT—LOSS OVER ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS, Yesterday morning, shortly after three o'clock, OMcer Dunnigan, of the Brooklyn police, saw smoke issuing from the windows on the top floor of the four story brick building at the corner of Firet and South Eleventh streets, in the Eastern district An alarm | was at once sounded and the firemen were soon on the ground. They found the building, which covered eight lots of ground, wrapped in flames, § that any attempt to save | the building wonla prove futile, they directed their efforts toward saving thé adjoining building. In this they were successful, The building wherein the flames | originated was totally destroyed. |The total loss 18 over | $100,000, 1s was four hours before | fromen extinguished the flames, and then there | Was nothing remaining bul a bea of sinowidering ruin, $ request trom a, | | the | \é Fight business firms occupied the prem! which{were known as Nos. 24, 26, 28 and 30 riee craved Those ere Josses: 8 ws Se cnien 5.

THE REVIVALISTS, PREPARATIONS FOR MOODY AND SANKEY—FACTS AND OPINIONS. . Quietly, but steadily and hopefully, the committee who have charge of the preparations for the reception of the evangeliats—Messrs, Moody and Sankey—in Brooklyn have gone to work. The general committee has been sub-divided, and each section hag taken some separate part of the work, One sub-committee looks after the alterations in the Rink, another at- tends to the finances, another to the music and so on, There has been no formal meeting of the since it was decided to commence revival operations here, Work will be begun in the Rink this week and seats for 7,000 persons will be put in, Heat- ing arrangements are to be provided, and the raised portions of the floor at the sides will be thickly padded and carpeted, so as to destroy the drumlike sound that is produced by walking over the hollow floor. It was stated yesterday by a member of the committee that the Rink will probably not be repainted, as was at first committee intended. The music committee will select about 200 trained voices from the several choirs of the city, but at Mr. Sankey’s request every one Youst be a Christian, He wants no operatic artist to help him, but he does want devoted, believing men and women who can feel the words as well as sing om. He is making a selection from his stock of ns, and they are to be published in two sizes and sone 82 mo., paper, which will be sold at five cents a copy, and the other octavo size, containing the music as well as the words, but to be sold at twenty-five cents a copy. These prices have been fixed so as to cover the cost merely, but nothing will be made by the publishers from their sale, The ushers in the Rink will be Christian young men. Those employed about the house in any capacity will be professors of religion, and, s0 far as possible, the committee intend to be con- sistent from the begining to the end of this great en- terprise, and PLACE ONLY CHRISTIANS ON GUARD everywhere, AS fur as can be ascertained within so brief a time the decision of the evangelists has given great joy, not only in Brooklyn bat in New York, and already a’ series of union revival prayer meetings in ditferent localities have been planned and will be in operation this week and thenceforward, The Baptist ministers of this city have arranged for a union prayer meeting to be held in the Fifth avenue Baptist church, commencing next Thursday afternoon, That with the Fulton street and Lyme Hall noon meetings are probably all that will be sustained hero for the present, As soon as the work spreads in Brooklyn other meetings will be started here in other sections of the city. In Brooklyn circles of prayer are multiplying, and the city pastors are to meet in a day or two to arrange to cover the ground more completely. A meeting will be held in the First Re- formed church, near the City Hall; another meeting will be held in the Fleet street Methodist Episcopal church, another in the Tabernacle, another in DeKalb avenue Methodist Episcopal church, and others will be arrauged hereafter, THE UNIVERSALISTS ARP READY to join in this work also, but they have not been in- yited by their orthodox brethren. Hence they will operate independently, but on parallel lines, On Sun- a th inst, a week before Moody and Sankey arrive revival meetings will be started in Dr. Nye’s urch, A short, sharp sermon will be followed im- mediately by a conference meeting. On Monday morn- ing, 25th, a meeting for conference and prayer will be held, and in the evening a sermon and: prayer meeting eagain; and so through the week, from day to day, Th week following—that is, from October 31 to November 7—similar meetings will be held in the Bleecker street church in this city, and then, changing the localities and the churches every week, these mcetings will be con- tinued at Harlem; at Mr. unnison’s church in Brooklyn, E. D.; at Mr. Puliman’s, in this city; at Dr, Forrester’s, in Newark; at Greenpoint, and finish- ing up eight weeks of prayer and preaching at Dr. Chapin’s church. Hymns are to be printed on cards for these meetings and congregational singing is to beencouraged.’ Dr, Talmage is enthusiastic over the coming of the evangelists to Brooklyn. He thinks they will creato in this city a disposition for church going uch ax has never been felt, Their coming will give a eath blow to what is miscalled liberal Christianity ; that is a religion of brains, and will, he says, substitute for it the religion of the cross, which is a religion of blood. ‘There is a little twitter of dissent and disap- pointment among Mr. Beecher’s friends because he was not invited to the Conference the other evening. THE DISCOVERY OF AMERICA. ‘The Italian Rifle Association @olombo Guard) will, on Tuesday next, celebrate the discovery of the Now World by their distinguished countryman, Christopher Columbus, 383 years ago, ‘The celebration will take ‘place at Sulzer’s East River Park.
