They held a meeting last evening (Glh) at Tammany Hall, at which tho Mayor presided. Resolutions wcro offered by Bartholomew O'Connor, to tho effect that tho Presidents of tho various emigrant societies be organized into a Committeo to nicino ralizc tho Legislature to take such action as it might seo fit on the subject of landing alien passengers, and to call a general meet after the 4lh November.

Several ppeakers, amid considerable opposition and applause, among them Mr. O'Connor, supported the resolutions. At length Eugene Casscrly offered as an amendment, a resolution that the commutation money ought to be paid into tho city treasury, and the city take the support of the poor emigrants out of the liandsof irresponsible individuals, and that the Convention should take tho matter in hand. These resolutions woro adoptod by a largo majority. Mr.

tiuncroit. Our new Minister to the British court goes out tomorrow (8th) in tho Great Western. No man has boon more virulently attacked by tho Whig press at least tho worst portion of it than Mr. Bancroft. Few men, too, deserve better of tho American Democracy tlian ho.

Wc have every faith in his doing tho riglitthing, in his new position abroad and wish him all good fortune, personal and otherwise. Anti ieit Coiiven: It will bo seen, says this morning's ((3th) Journal of Commerce, from the annexed dispatch, that the Anti Kent Convention havo adopted tlio Whig candidate for Governor, and tho Democratic candidate for Governor. Silas Wright was too resoluto in putting down their rebellion, to receive their favor hereafter. But whether he will lose more votes than iio will gain, in conseqence of their hostility, will bo shown by tho result. The fact that they havo adopted Young for their candidate, renders it desirable that the views of this gentleman on the Anti Iient question, should be distinctly avowed.

Bv TELEun.vrn Albany, Oct. 6, 1S4G. The Anti Rent Convention of Delegates from Albany, Rensselaer, Columbia, Ulster, Montgomery, Schoharie, Delaware and Sullivan comities, after four hours debate, resolved to nominate Young for Governor, and Gardiner for Lt. Governor. Also, for Canal Commissioners, they took one of the Whig and one of tlio Democratic nominees, Messrs.

Clowes and Hudson. Brooklmi IDculii ak. WEDSESDAT OCT. 7. Democratic Republican Nomination.

Xlie Constitutional Yesterday the (GUi) to a proposition Hint three Commissioners shall be appointed by the lature to revise, arrange and submit lo the I.egislu tnre for adoption, the whole body of the law. They have also agreed that all Fines, Quarter Sales, or other like restraints upon alienation reserving' auy grant of land hereafter to bo made shall bo void. Sec first of the Elective Franchise, as adopted on motion of Mr. Stow, provides that every white male citizen 21 years old, who has been a citizen for ten days, a year resident in tho State, four months in the country, and thirty days in tho Election District, may vote in such District. We, (with others) ore sorry that section 7th, providing that every elector of this State shall bo eligible to any offico under the Constitution except as therein otherwise provided, has been stricken out.

Tho Convention have resolved, 73 to 126, to submit separately to the people tho following section Colored malo citi zens in possession of tho qualifications required by the first section ol this articlo other than the property qualification, shall have tho right to vote for all officers that aro or may hereafter be elected by the peoplo after the first of January, 18 17." The Convention by tho strong vote of 77 to 33, has strickon out the section in the present Constitution which excludes Ministers of tho Gospel from holding any civil or military office in this State. Pertinent tjiiestiojjs. Tho Buffalo Courier in announcing tho Democratic Nomination for Governor, (which is hailed with enthusiastic joy not only through tho 1 Empire' itself, but through the republic,) pertinently asks the following questions: In what respect has Gov. Wright come short of his duty to tho people of this state in the administration of his high office? Whom hath ho offended Have not the laws been faithfully executed? So far as depended upon him, has not a sato and wiso policy governed our legislation? Have not his recommendations to tho legislature been distinguished by prudence and practical wisdom Shall his wisdom and experience be given up, and a man placed in his stead new to all his duties of his office, and untried in any political station of high responsibility a man wholly unknown, even by reputation or name, to a large proportion of the electors of this state, and to those who do know him, offensivo for his attachment to tho most dangerous doctrine of tho day WoinKn's property. The Convention have again rovorsed tho provision securing to married women the control of their own property.

That provision on, Monday, was reconsidered, 59 to 43, and then rejected 50 to 5J and the whole subject with the proposed amendments designed to secure this provision in a qualified form, laid on tho table, by a vote 52 to 49. with a lingering taste of her most sweet bestowal, in tho way of weather, before sho closes up her summer accounts, and does business in tho way of hard frost and snow. Surely no mortal man could ask for finer weather than this now cur ront. Tho air has a springiness and buoyancy about it the sky wafts but a few light clouds and tho sun gives us all his goodly warmth, without any of the unpleasant vividness erewhile of the dog days. is tho weather for taking long walks in the country for strolling out, not to kill an hour, or stave off vacuity but to enjoy Lifo and Naturo to receivo into the heart tho thousand refining and indescribably sivcet influences that this beautiful earth, in its moro agreeable phases, presents.

Tho Autumn exhibits features which havo been harped upon by poets, and painted by painters, for ages. I ui vuiuu oiaiu iui li la rooted in the roots of trees, and blooms freshly in their perpetual bloom lives in the gorgeous tints of tho sky, and in the mellow haze of tho autumn air and smiles forever on the bright cool surface of the rivers and while tho trees, sky, and rivers exist, tho mild glories of autumn too will dcvclope impulses like the following, from ono of our American poets How mild the light in all tho skies How balmily this south wind blows The smile of God around us lies, His rest is in this deep repose. These whispers of tho flowing air, Thoso waters that in music fall, These sounds of peaceful life declare. The love, that keeps and hushes all, Then let us to the forest shade, And roam its paths the live long day These glorious hours were never mado In life's dull cares to waste away. We'l! wander by tho running stream, Aud pull the wild grape hanging o'er, And list the fisher's startling scream, That perches by the pebbly shore.

And when the sun to his repose, Sinks in the rosy west at even, And over field and forest throws A hue that makes them seem like heaven, We'll overlook the glorious land, From the green brink of yonder height, And silently adore the hand That made our world so fair and bright. Comfortably horrible if The N. Yl Spirit oj lite Times has a story of a slaver, chased on tho coast of Africa, by two British cruisers, a year or two ago, aud finding ho could not escape, had tlie dUU slaves in tuc hold passed up, their hands tied behind them, shot fastened to their feet, aud plunged over tho bulwarks into the ocean then started all tho extra water, provisions, lumber, and when overhauled by the cruiser, exhibited regular papers, and was realeased. Tho Grcenbnsh Ferry boat sunk on Sunday last, while crossing the river at Albany. The Knicker bocker says There were a groat number of ladies and gentlemen and a number of children on board at tho time.

The confusion and fright were dreadful. The passengers and hands managed to escape by climbing on top of tho wiecl house. The cattle saved themselves by swimming ashore. The pas sengers were taken off by small boats from tho shore. Tho Journeymen Tailors of Cincinnati were on a strike last week for higher wages, when their employers had them arrested for conspiracy, uut tlioy wcio alt suDsequenlty released.

How happens it that when employers unite together as they frequently do, to settlo tho prices they will pay, nobody ever thinks of arresting them for conspiracy "Nothing that i broken bears any value except the heart, which becomes tho moro valuable the more it is broken." yes stono for macadamised roads corn and wheat not to mention grapes or apples in tho press aro all to be put in the samo category. Can the statement be true? We seo it stated that a man at Lahore, (Indiana) who confessed to the murder of five women, for the plunder of the jewels they wore, was burned alive, after enduring tho most horrible torturo that fiendish men could inflict upon him with knives, red hot pinchers, If a child exhibits any symptons of precocity, it should bo immediately taken from books, and permitted to ramble and play in tho open air, or engage in manual labor, and such amusements as will give rest to tho mind, aud health and vigor to tho body." A correspondent inquires if we will publish orifrinal sketches of a miscellaneous description, Yes if they are well written, and of allowable length. Short, pithy, original communications wo will be happy to get. A Liberal Bostoniax.

The Common Pleas anil General Sessions were in session yesterday, for tho purpose of awaiting tho result of the deliberations of tho Grand Jury. Tho petit jury having been discharged, the evening before, until this morning, no causes wero taken up for trial. Tho Grand Jury, having completed their labors, returned into court with some twenty bills of indictment, and were discharged with the thanks of tho court.

The indictments are principally for tssaulf and battery aud excise violations. Thero is a largo accumulation of business before tho Sessions which has been postponed from previous terms, and tho probability is that this session will be protracted to the three weeks prescribed by law.

27 Wail Ltrect, New York. 06 istd Something for our L. I. woiiking.me.n'b daughters to read." Habits of neatness, cleanliness, and order, are indispensablo to a female, if she have any regard to tho comfort of others or of her own. The sex aro designed not only to extend the comforts of domestic life, but to be its principal ornaments an attention to dress therefore is necessary.

How many females run into the error of thinking that to dress finely is to dress well when the two things are us different as possible for the one excites attention and the other avoids it. A lady who knew this distinction, ordered a cap from the milliner. How will you have it made, Madam Make replied the lady, so that it will not excite a This, to mo, was the best definition of what dress should be that I ever heard. Be, then, neat and cleanly in your dress, and borrow a lesson of instruction from this lad Disease of Turnips. It is now announced that tho farmers of England aro afilicted with another calamity, besides tho destruction of thoir potato crop.

A somewhat similar disease to that which has been raging among tho potatos, has manifested itself in many forms amongst tho turnips. They aro attacked in tho same way as tho potatos. The leaves first become affected and tho disease spreads into the heart of tho turnip, which in a short time becomes rotten, and a very offensive smell arises. As the sheep and cattlo arc fed in the fall and winter chiefly on tho turnip, this disease will prove a very serious calamity. The same disease has attacked the turnips in Ireland, and it is romarked that if, with potatos, tho farmers should loso their turnips to any great extent, it is a matter for serious consideration how they are to obtain a substitute as food fur their sheep aud cattle.

Extensive importations of Indian corn from tho United States are looked upon as tho only resource. Father Matthew. In reply to a recent invita to vidt America, Father Matthew says: "I am most desirous to witness the. happiness tho fortunate peoplo of your great and prosperous country enjoy, and to unite with your benevolent, self denying citizens, in diffusing more widely the observanco of tho evangelical virtue of temperance. It would even cnuso mo a bitter pang, if I was denied the hope of devoting there a portion of my life to that sacred mission yet, I see obstacles and difficulties, and doubts, on every side.

A little lime, I confidently trust, will leave mo freo to gratify my inclinations, and to cross tho wide Atlantic. Murder in Cincinnati. A Mr. Thomas By inglon, a harmless, worthy young man, was slabbed in the streets of Cincinnati 011 the morning of the th by a man named Church. Byington and a friend were proceeding to a fire, when they slightly jostled a party of gentlemen obstructing the sidewalk.

Words ensued, and in the course of the melee, Church inflicted frightful gash some four inches in depth and eight in length, in the bowels, and another horrid wound in tho side, and also culling tho right arm one third off. Byington died in about half an hour. Church has been committed. Caning a Clergyman. Major Dunn, a teacher of broad sword exercise, made, on Friday morning last, at V'illsburgh, a violent assault on the ltev.

Dr. Upfold, rector of Trinity Church, with a cane, inflicting a severe contusion on his head. It appears that the Major was charged with intemperance, aud as he was a communicant of Dr. Uplold's Church, he requested him nut to present himsolf at tho communion table again, whereupon he knocked tho liev. gentleman down with his cano.

IIo was committed in default of bail. Under the cover of religion," said the Itcv. President iNott, men perhaps more frequently the bitterness of passion, without compunction, than in any othcrsituation. Tho wretch who wnntnnU and without somo salvo to his conscience, attacks private character, feels self condemned. But tlm tour, sanctimonious, grace hardened bigct, embarks all his pride, gratifies all his revenge, and empties 111s corroded bosom ol its gall and smoothing eve the distorted features of his countenance, says, and nan believes tnat ho has done God service I' in Massachusetts.

Disastrous news from Newfoundland. A terrible gale swept the colony on the 19th, 20th, and 21st causing immense destructions to lifo and property.

Among the buildings destroyed in tho city of St John's, was tho Natives' Hall, burying a young woman and child in tho ruins. A brother and sister were also killed at the same place. Several bridges carried away. One boat with six or seven men on board, in trying to make tho harbor, was upset, and all in tho boat perished. Wrecks cover tho water, aud dead bodies aro continually being washed on shore.

As A. VERY AVERAGE 1 ROOF Of tllO method ill which five sixths of tho Theatrical Criticism of tho New York press comes into existence, may bo mentioned the long cut and dried puffin yesterday's N. Y. Herald, of the Keans' acting in a play which accidentally diiVnt come off! This is not the fust nor the second nor tho third awkward blunder of the kind which has occurred of late Most of tho criticisms' in the metropolitan press are written before the plays are played and paid for by the theatre, or other partios. Of thoso which are not so paid for, tho majority aro tlio fruits of solicitation, favoritism, and so on.

In tho midst of ail that stale and unwholesome utterance, the speaking of a single paragraph of unbiased truth falls like an alarming and terrible thing It would bo a curious result and a profitable one to take a while to tho theatre some man, highly educated aud knowing to the world in other things but totally fresh to the stsge and let him give his real opinions of tho queer sort of doings he would sco there. Another suicide of a iiov. Buffalo papers of Saturday eveninir. state that a vnntl, ii years of age, named Charles Baldy, took poison the previous night and died that morning. He was a youth of good habits and cheerful disposition, and no cause can bo assigned for the act, unless disappointment in his expectation of getting somo employment.

He was an orphan and came to Buffalo a few mouths ago from Seneca Falls, where ho was very respectably connected This makes the fifth or sixth suicide by a lad, within the last eight mouths, that we havo seen recorded in the papers.
