AMUSEMENTS. result, without reference to the powers or feelings of the subject of the problem. The story is a love affair all through, and the quarrels of the hero and heroine are as interesting as the course of true love generally is. Their first serious estrangement arises from Helen dancing the polka, her admirer, somewhat opposed to that style of performanne. It Is not a fastidious or prudish work, however, but inculcates lofty moral principles and self denial in depicting the results which they produce, and the effects their absence.

not to have anything to do with such' men as I was, if he valued the propriety of hiB school, I thought it the most charitable construction I could put upon his position to consider him. influenced to take it by the strong inducements thus, unexpectedly laid before him! If rerre'd'in 'being to6 charitable (as Mr. G. seems to imply,) he must excuse me. I fear I have.

I fear he has not dealt as honestly and openly in this whole matter as I was willing to believe. His last communication in the Eagib gives me this impression, which Is confirmed by an interview. I have since had with him, in which (to my utter amazement, aa may be supposed, after the facts I have stated) he declared that he never really thought of employing me, except for his accommodation in his absence and when I asked what then was meant by the vote taken in his school after his return, and the talk of my continued employment, he answered that it was done merely out of compliment to me, and for my gratification I The public can judge for themselves what construction to put on this whole matter. The same feeling which would lead Mr. Q.

to refuse to employ me had he known that I agreed with those arch heretics (f) Calvin and Luther, Paley and Whately, concerning the Sabbath, would of course lead him to ceate such employment, if once afforded. The question, then, is not one of the spirit of Mr. present position, whether prescriptive or not, but whether he has, in fact, if not in form, actually withheld from me that employment which he would otherwise have given.

Sophia Lambert, a Gorman lady of fighting propensities had a disagreement with an amiable looking Dutchman, August Trabant of 139 Pacific st. Frau Lambert used to parade in front of Trnbant's house armed with a broomstick, and challenge him forth to single combat. Trabant invariably declined tho challenge, which so aggravated tho lady, that on Saturday she went up his window and after violently abusing him in Dutch, calling him a "spitsbourg" and other shocking names, sho slammed hor fist through the window, breaking a pane of glass and disturbing the peace. Trabant gave his testimony to this effect, furtlicr deposing that he verily believed that if his head had been whore the pane of glass was, Fran Lambert would have hit him. There was a clear case against Frau other witnesses corroborating tho testimony.

The Judgo asked her what sho had to say. Frau L. Excuse me Judgo, "I swear so high as you vant me, dat he proke de window mit his fist Judge; "I don't want you to swear very high. I shall have to lino you $3, or commit you for five days." Frau "How much ho pay mo for call me von 'bitch Tho Judgo not being posted in the market value of vile ppollations, was unable to answer. Assault.

Mr. Froith was held for examination on a charge of assaulting Catharino Ludwick, at 207 Hicks st. by choking hor and pulling her hair on the 29th of March) The Act Consummated. The couple, Charles Colgan and Miss Mary Elizabeth Weeks, In regard to whom the readers of police reports in this paper must have some information, from the proceedings in lost Saturday's paper, wore married at the boarding houso, No. 166 York street, on Sunday night, in presence of a goodly company of both sexes.

Tho Pastor of tho Methodist Church in York street, solemnized the ceremony, and they are now man and wife, according to your canons. Hit offences caused your virtuous rage so to boil over, that you condescended to bully the miserable regains you who could crush him with your little finger! You have been ranting for months post about Neapolitan tyranny, and unable to rest in your bed while such a monster fltalked unpunished. It interfered in no manner with you. It paid you the compliment of agreeing to all your theories about paternal governments, greatest happiness, rights of man, and so on but it did not carry them into practice exactly as you would have it. You threatened hostilities, and though you saw some good reason for at length drawing in your horns, you showed unmistakably, like that gentleman who was found in a Kentuckian ploughed field with each of his thumbs cruelly probing a furrow, "how you would have gouged him." We say that you hated Nicholas, and hate his son that you hate Clicquot, and Bomba, and Francis Joseph, because the form of their governments not assimilate to the form of yours that you tolerate Jonathan and some other individuals because their governments do assimilate in form to yours.

Tried by this Tule, your conduct is consistent and intelligible enough. Tbe justest, the ablest, and tho most humane ruler in the world, would experience your odium if his power were absolute the greatest ruffians, if acknowledging a government nominally constitutional and liberal, are, to a certain extent, assured of your sympathy and support. Your disposition with regard to any question is carefully ascertained by persons whose living depends on making their communications agreeable and popular. They will tell you nothing but what you desire to hear. If facts be too stubborn for their purpose, they will color and veil them so that they shall be facts no longer.

While you rail against tyrants, you are subject to the tyrants's greatest disability it is dan greous to tell you the truth, and few dare to do it it is profitable to humor your prejudices, and that is universally done The Bomba depicted to you iB a mere fiction a portrait made to order, like the ogres in children's books. The Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, as exhibited for your entertainment a land where the voice of joy and gladness is never heard, and where the unhappy serf exists hut to suffer, to despair, and to curee the oppressor is about as real as the scenes which you enjoyed on boxing night. Visit Bomba and his people, and judge for yourself, You will see a stout good natured monarch, much of your own figure, driving four in hand through the streets of his capital. His wife and children are packed in the coach, juRt as you on a Sunday afternoon bestow Mrs. Bull and her little never never never will bes in your one horse.

You prick your ears as you detect the clank of iron, and then find it only proceeds from tho drag chain. Instead of guards, executioners, and bravos, he is attended by three or four grooms mounted on thoroughbreds, and turned out in careful imitation of the practice here. He bows politely to everbody especially to your relatives, notwithstanding your rudeness to him. Even Jonathan, to'whom yon were so forbearing when it was a question of fighting, you managed to exasperate three or four years back, while you pretended to coax and beseech him. Your animadversion concerning his niggers has undoubtedly contributed largely to the hopelecs aspect of the slave question at the present time.

Instead of letting the example which you had set him work, and allowing him slowly and quietly to renounce his errors as you had done, you forced it upon him, as a point of honor, to persist in that which he might possibly have been by this time ready to abjure if left to himself. His jealous and tenacious nature saw dishonor in being even just and merciful at your dictation. He penetrated your devices, laughed at your attempt to influence him through his women gammon him, indeed, with them 'ar gals and critters! and was stung to the quick at your Beecber Stowe fetish orgies. He could not fail to see that your idolatary proceeded not so BROOKLYN ATHENiEUM. CAPr.

The Common Council, being acoesaable to the popular influence, yielded to the pressure of public sentiment, but the directors of the Eailroad Company, hedged behind the harriers of a mon. led monopoly, defy the people to their teeth.

The appeal in behalf of Mr. William Fotjlkeb, formerly one of the proprietors of the Brooklyn Adoertiter, and which appeared in our paper yes teidav, has met with a prompt response from a gentleman of this city, whose name we are not authorised to give, but as it redounds to the credit of his heal and heart as a truly Christian 'philanthropist, and may induce others to follow his worthy example, we are impelled, even at the risk of what may be considered a breach of faith, to publish the following letters and orders wHh the name of the donor attached. We think ourselves justified in so doing for the good it may accomplish, by inciting others who have means, and, like Mr.

Eastman, are never backward in good works, when they know that their contributions are not misapplied. Clinton Avhmjh, April 7, 1857.

In answer we would inform all who desire to know that he lives In Sands street, second door from the corner of Pearl, over a cigar store. Some further contributions have been handed in tons in addition to the above. Another Kani as emigration scheme is on the tapis. The leaders, who intend to locate a colony from this State somwhere in the virgin territory, have sent an account of the same to the Eerald with several "shares" as black mail, all of which the Herald publishes. A letter in the same paper from from Bochester discants on Thayer's Virginia project, and says "that from this Virginia emigration scheme a series of similar speculating movements in the waste lands of tho border slave States, from Maryland to Missouri, will spring up, and that the political result will be a far greater and more important sectional txcitement than upon the Knnsasques tion." That's it.

Another sectional excitement is to be got up by marching squads of ragamuffins, like the troops of Peter the Hermit, to trail their coat tails along the borders of tbe Southern States, to be trampled on as the com "mencement of warfare. The one card of these sectional agitators is war between North and South but. we doubt if that amount of vice and folly necescary to raise such an issue can be found in the country. Corriction. We received a telegraphic despatch from Albany yesterday, which we published, that Hon.

Samuel E. Johnson had been appointed Regent of the University. Mr. Johnson had simply received the caucus nomination of hiB party. Mr.

Isaac Parks of Oneida, was elected by the Legislature to that office. The nomination of Mr. Johnson is the first recognition of the literary interests of Kirjgt County. We hope when Democratic party have It in their power in the Legislature they will abide by their present choice, and elect a Regent from this hitherto neglected city. Our iterary and educational interests arc of sufficient imagnitudue to entitle us to a representative.

A strenuous effort was made to defeat the election of Tunis G. Bergen, as Supervisor for New Utrecht. Mr. Bergen stands in the way of speculators and eorruptioniste and while he is in the Board of Supervisors tho public interests will be sure to have one vigilant guardian. The vote stood 144 for Mr.

Bergen against 86. His competitor had published a partial declination in the Eagle, preferring not to be considered a candidate. Boole Notices. Blackwood' Magazine. The current number of Blackwood is one of the best we have read for months.

The Case of Greenleaf versos Hateb. To the Editor of the Eagle Permit me through your columns to express my great surprise at reading the communication of Mr. Greenleaf, in last Friday's Eagle. I regret to be compelled to say more on this matter but it having first been made public by others, who have since taken a very singular course concern it justice to myself demands a reply, to this statement of Mr. G.

He says that with others "seem to have fallen" into "an error," and this alleged error, he assumes to correct, by saying 1 'Mr. H. was employed in my school only during my absence, and because of my absence never before or since. On my return, having no further occa sion for his services he received his compensation and the engagement terminated." Now there is a sense, in which this is literally true hut that which it implies and naturally conveys, to one not acquainted with the circumstances, is far from true. The explisit understanding between Mr.

G. and myself was, that the special engagement, during his absence, should be a sort of experiment, and if successful, i. e. if the young ladies were interested in, and profited by instructions, and he was. satisfied with their progress during that fortuight, and I was inclined to continue my labors, and we could agree upon the rate, (all these things were mentioned by Mr.

he would, probably, desire to secure my continued services in that department of instruction. The only thing alluded to, as possibly interfering with my continued employment under those conditions, was, the contingency of his making arrangements during his absence to remove to another part of the country. So he left and I went to teaching. Upon his return, he told me, that almost the first question asked him by many of the young ladies, they could not continue to receive my instruction in reading; and that he put them off, by saying, that he must first see whether they had improved sufficiently to make it worth his while to be at the extra expense. After hearing the class read over all the pieces upon which I had drilled them, he expressed a high degree of gratification with the improvement shown, and the plan upon which I had conducted the exercises and reminded them that should he engage me to continue my instructions, it would be no small extra expense to him, and he would receive no extra tuition from them so that, he would be unwilling to do it, without they explicitly desired it, and would so continue to improve as to compensate him, in that way, for tbe outlay.

Having said this, he put the matter to vote, and tho class having unanimously declared themselves desirous of receiving my instructions, and determined to make satisfactory improvement, he remarked that he did not know what my engagements were, but as "the bright eyed young ladies' were so unanimous and enthusiastic in tho matter, he would confer with me, and see if an arrangement could be made. Upon this, I said that I considered myself fortunate, in not having any engagement which would interfere with a continuation, for a time at least, of an employment with them, which had proved so agreeable and satisfactory to all parties. Mr. G. then reminded the class that certain studies had been dropped, during the two weeks of his absence, and these must first be made up, before more time could be devoted to reading.

Upon accompanying me to the door, he told me, further, that he had returned a decided negative to the proposition which had been made him, to engage in instruction elsewhere, and expected to continue in his present location he did not know how soon the class would make up the lessons that wero behind, but he would sec me soon, and confer with me, respecting the future. This was the understanding, as plain as words could make it. Before this, I had made a full expression of my nnti Sabbatarian views, at a public meeting in the City Hall, and they had been reported very fully in the Eagle; tho' probably Mr. having just returned, had not seen them. But I saw him the day after, and asked him if he had read my views thus expressed.

He said he had, and differed from me in opinion, but, alluding to certain odium, which had been cast upon me on their account, he expressed himself fully and etroTxgly against anything like proscription or reproach for ones honest opinions, and gave me to understand that I need fear nothing of the sort from him. Is it strange that when I saw him next in the City Hall, at another rail r.iad meeting, I should be surprised at his reply to the challenge of Mr. Bergen one of his patrons to the effect that I was not then in his employ, and never would have been, had he known my anti Sabbatriau views? I could hardly believe my ears and asked if I had heard correctly. Upon Mr. repeating what he had said, very distinctly, (the strong reaffirmation being foUOwed by deafening ap thm let the community judge.

1 have endea vored in my statement to do no injustice, even by implication, to Mr. and feel no hesitancy in appealing to the young ladies to sustain me in my account of what passed in the school room on Mr. return, and the understanding with which I left them that it was to resume my instructions in reading in a few days. I shall ask, Mr. Editor, the privilege of another column in your paper, soon, in which to reply to the mean and dastardly stab which a Mr.

ybbot endeavored to inflict on my reputation, in close connection with Mr. Greenleaf repeated avowal in the City Hall. You noticed at the time with disapprobation the remark, which was to the effect, that if those present wished to know my character, they could find it by. writing to Gloucester, Mass. (where I fras, a year or two ago, settled in the ministry) and they would learn that instead of being a Beverend, I was an Irreverend As no opportunity was given me then to reply, and this "imputation of sin" to me was so public, I know you will grant me this favor, remembering that this publicity of private affairs is not of my own seeking.

In a leaf of "shady side" I will unfold "the head and front of my offending' in and narrate how ascetic and bigoted men, like Abbot my beloved brethren there, in the Church, and in the ministry served me in a more base, dishonest and thoroughly abusive manner than I have ever been treated by those "ungodly sinners" and "Sabbath breakers," the "non elect."

Haley, whilo somewhat the worso for liquor, wont into a porter house, corner of Court and Borgen streets last evening, where after drinking for some time, he was set upon by some parties in thero, who boat him badly, attempting to take his money from him. Haley made swavinto the streot, when officer Dougherty came up and took him in cuarge.

ie was too mucn intoxicated to toll exactly what had happened, but ho had evidontly been badly used, and an attempt had been made to rob him, but Haley kept his money, $6, firmly clutched in his hand. The officer tried to ascertain who his assailants wore, but the keeper of the house pretended Jo know nothiDg about it. Hail Thief Officer Hyde of tho 4th district police arrested James Wilson yesterday on tho charge of stealing a coat from tho hall ob the corner of Washington and Fulton avenues. Tho accused wns committed to await examination by Justice Morehouse. Pickpockets at thb Circus.

Tho circus, corner of Navy streot and Fulton" avenue, was infested with pickpockets last evening. Upwards of thirty persons had their pockets picked of something near $1000 in money, jewelry, etc. Among tho victims are Constable Price of the Fifth ward, who lost his watch and chain; F. H. Dikoman, $30 in money and $600 in papers J.

P. Troy, of soveral dollars; L. Zwlnburg, of James Reardon of $3, and James Henderson of $17 and a gold ring. Deputy Sheriff Higgins and Officer Oakes arrested Jo3oph King and Daniel Sweeney on suspicion On the latter $67 were found. They were committed this morning by Justice Morehouse to answer the charge.

Mr. Editor Being a constant reador ot the Eaglb, and knowing by previous statements and corrections in your paper, that you are over ready to correct and deal justice out to tho deserving I flatter myself you will publish the statement of an iniurod man, in regard to a caso lately tried before Justice Smith in tho City Hall, Brooklyn, which will be a source of interest to his numerous friends and members of his family gonerally. Michael Philips, of 166 York street, Brooklyn, am ready to Bweor, if required, before any justice or tribunal of these United States, to the truthfulness of the following statement jn regard to tho above case. With all due respect to a man, a certain witness in the above case, who trind to stigmatize my name before tho Court, I wish to state that ho was the person who done tho injury to tho girl by having a mock marriage performed between tho defendant and Miss Weeks. Immediately after this formal and illegal ceremony, a certain lady residing in the above mentioned house locked the girl and defendant in a room together, making her believo the marriage was lawful, and kept her there until her virgin innocence was robbed of its purity.

1 felt along as though things wore not right in regard to her and being backed by the suspicion of another rospoctable gontleman a room mate of mine I immediately considered the best plan would bo to see tho young girl and have a statement from her own lips as to the wholo transaction. Sho stated tho following "Oh 1 Mr. Philips, I wish I could navo seen you before, (and then fell to sobbing and crying), I have wanted to see you for a week or more, but never could get a chance to soo you." I then said, as Bho cried, "My dear girl, what have thoy done to you tell me all." With that she told me, defendant violated her porson twice. Not having a chance to speak to her, as members of the family were continually going in and out, I requested her to come out with me, which sho did immediately. We then left the house and proceoded to Fulton forry.

Passing along, (sho all tho while sobbing and crying) I asked her how sho would like to marry me. Shesaid, "Oh, Mr. Philips, I would like it very much. Sho then spoke of being seducod. I told hor that I would never after mention it to her, as I was aware it was Dot her fault I then crossed Fulton ferry and went direct to a clergyman's house in New York city.

Tho clergyman was absent at the time. Wo thon took a walk and visited a few places where none but respectable persons wore in tho habit of resorting and hero I may as well state, I can solemnly doclaro to my God, I used no drugged wine myself or offorod any to her. Tho wine we used was porfectly pure from drugs of any nature to tho best of my knowledge She merely tasted the wine, and I often drank hor's and my own, which soon intoxicated me and left me with scarcely knowing what I did. It was then getting late and sho said, "For God's salto, don't take me to that awful place again take mo anywhere rather than thorc. Knowing my full intention was to mako hor my wife for life the next day, I booked ourselves as man and wife in one of the most respectable hotels in the city.

In tho morning I loft her at tho hotel and repaired to my boarding house in Brooklyn. I found things in tho boarding house In quite an excited stato. I then relumed to tho hotel and told her how things stood at tho house. Wo thon took breakfast at the hotel from thenoo wo proceeded to Fulton ferry. I then told hor it would bo better to go to tho house for ono hour to make things quiet instoad of going right off to the Minister's she then told mo she longed to have the marriage performed and havo it over.

I told her in tho afternoon we would bo married by any Minister in Brooklyn sho would liko. She then returned to tho boarding house alone, as I had to purchase some ropo of tho ship chandler for my businoss, and could not go with her. In about an hour after I returnod to the housOj and found her quite changed in hor opinion of nmrriago, through the instigation of thoso who were tho moans of her ruin. I asked her what was tho matter, and sho made mo no answer whatever. I thon mado mysolf easy, and since then have had nothing more to do with the case.

If much from veneration of the idol, as from a determination to condemn his conduct, and to omit no opportunity of peaceMly venting your ill opinion. Tbe whole of that ridiculous exhibition was simply a reproach to him, and he knows it. He is well aware of the way in which you commonly recognise literary merit. He remembers the utmost you ever did to honor Scott or Burns, Bulwer or Macaulay, and can probably judge, through all his prejudice, of the disparity between either of these Dames and his countrywoman, for whom you testified such violent enthusiasm. Possibly your conduct at that time, which he so keenly felt, but could not resent, rankled until it resulted in those insulting acts and imputations which you have in your turn been obliged to pocket from him.

Touching the nigger question John receives the following hints "Of all your dependants, sir, we bslieve that the most unfortunate is Quashee. He and his master are both ruined and you, we fear, Mr. Bull, are the author of their faU. A little more sense and a little leas temper on your part would have made him by this time a thriving and respectable freeman, instead of the filthy, idle, ignorant, degraded wretch that he now is. We were present and witnessed his capers in Jamaica on the 1st of August 1838, and we have since paid him a long visit in your other estates.

We ivish that you could see him in any part of your West India property then, perhaps, you would acknowledge the expediency of being kind after an apparently cruel fashion of subjecting Quashee to some little constraint and disability for bis own benefit. It is nearly twenty years since you set him free, and he is literally more ignorant, more idle, and more vicious than when first emancipated. If this is the effect of freedom, the old slavery were better. You are bound, by every obligation which can influence a responsible being, to abate your silly fondness, and to treat him in a rational manner. Instead of reversing your insane policy with regard to him you have been venting your ill will upon Bamboo his master, thus reminding us of gentlemen who occasionallv fiaure in the police re ports.

Returning home under the influence of powerful refreslimentsr they chastise tneir helpmates but finding this entertainment disturb the moral equilibrium, they seek to adjust the balance by smashing theiurnitnre ana crocnery. How Bamboo's ruin is to benefit your beloved Quashee, or what you expect Quasbte to become when Bamboo is extinct, we cannot divine, and we doubt if vou can make these points clear to us Something you must do for Quashee, and speedily, or he will revert to a savage state, and his country to a wilderness. Vivia oa tub Secret of Powke. By Mrs. Southworth.

This is a volume from the press of T. B. Peterson, 102 Chestnut street, Philadelphia. It is heralded with very flattering notices, and it is without doubt a work of superior merit. In style it is distinguished by a terse, epigrammatic vigor, and in incident is startling without viola ting probability.

It is pervaded by a high moral tone, and paints vice so as to be hated needs but to be seen. The heroine exercises vast power over those with whom she comes in contact, solely by the involuntary homage which is ever awarded to virtue and a sympathetic nature.

It contains some of the ablest delineations of character to be met with in modern fiction. Nothing can be finer than the character of the old Admiral, who conceals under his blunt and rough exterior a heart as tremulously tender and feelings as fresh and kindly as ever animated a human bosom, Lady Augusta is an example of the folly of training a human being on the arithmetical plan of adding so many accomplishments, so much crafty management, and figuring up the.
