They show their feeling by calling on the Conrt to indict parties and convict them for a simple error of judgment, which I am convinced is their only offenoe.

Jesse C. Smith, made their first (voluntery) summer parade yesterday. They marched to the City Hall Park about four o'clock, where they were received by Mayor Lambert and several members of the Common Council. Their appearance was neat and soldierly, and the evolutions perlormed were executed in a precise and creditable manner. A large crowd had assembled in the park to witness the spectacle.

Af.sr passing in review before the authorities they proceeded to New York and attracted considerable attention. Cholera aed Small Pox at Quabantine. The New York Evening Post understands that the Collector of the Port has allowed the use of two large warehouses, immediately north of Quarantine, to accomodate the cholera patients who are constantly arriving at the port of New York in emigrant ships. The small pox is also reported to be quite prevalent among the emigrants recently arrived. It is regarded as absolutely necessary that the cholera patients should be separated from the others.

Dkixfectixo Agents. Chloride of lime cannot be used too freely in sprinkling the gutters and all places emitting unsavory smells. The stench of the streets under the influence of the hot sun is offensive and dangerous. We learn that a profusion of lime was used yesterday to sprinkle the gutters in Centre street, New York and the process might be extended with advantage. A solution of copperas is also an excellent article to throw into cesspools, as it prevents the eBoapeof noxious vapors.

Obtaining Monet Uhder False Pretences. Yesterday Officer McLoughlin, of tho First District Police, took into custody a fellow calling himself Francis Kinney, upon a charge of obtaining money by representing that a neighbor's child had died of cholera, and being destitute had no means to bnry it decently. His story being plausible he obtained a considerable sum, and being detected was looked up for his trouble. The Board ot Supervisors were to have assembled at the County Jail yesterday for the trans, action of business but no quorum being present ths minority adjourned to another day.

Tbi Japan Trade. The opening oi tho ports of Japan to our ships, has already awakened en quiry as to the commercial advantages to be expected from our new relations with that country, The advantages immediately derived from com merce with those people, mast arrise from their wants and superfluities. There are few products, however, known to European civilization, which the Japanese have not produced for themselves, Their policy has been to exclude other nations, and rely upon their own industry. They have beco oe well versed in the various artB, so that the chances ot trade are diminished in proportion as thsir own skill and res purees have been deve loped. Time may effect a change, commerce can oreala wants, and even make superfluities neoes' ary, but intercourse with the Janese muBt be more intimately established before a sense of these wants can be acquired.

A letter, written on board the U. S. Frigate SuEquehanna, says, if our first adventurers come here under the impression that the Japanese are ignorant because they are inexperienced in commerce they will find themselves mistaken, for not even the Chinamen understand the of making things appear to the greatest advantage with more skill than the Japanese." The New York Courier adds that: "For a long time the whole trade of the world with Japan has been carried on by two Dutch ships and twelve Chinese junks, which made the voyage yearly and even on this scale the Dutch Faotory have tound it rather a losing business, and were willing enough to resign the chief portion of it to their government. The exports have been confined to a lew articles procelain, lackered ware, copper, Camphor, tea, brimsti ne, Cutlery, a few kinds of drugs, and precious stones. The articles imported have been still lewer and lees important.

For the present, it might be presumed that the treaty will be of far more Indirect than direct advantages to us. The proximating of Japan to our fishing grounds iu the I'aciflo, and the supply of coaling stations for tranB Pacific steamers, will be the principal source of advantage to ns for the first few years. Bat the reopening of Japan to the intercouse of the world is peculiarity important in its moral and religious aspects. The consequence that will result from it in connection with those which will probably flow from the success of the revolution in China, may, within the next generation, work a change in the condition of Asia such as never has been witnessed since the CnriBtiun Era. The most immoveable of continents is henceforth to bear her full part in the wonderful developments ot the age.

Daggers of Tachtiso. A party of gentlemen lrom New York, among whom were Messrs J.N. Stoltbrfoht, or STOLTEiiFonr, Frost Wm. W. Skaats, of Skaats Brothers, and other members of the Corn Exchange, started on the evening of the 15th nit.

for the pur posd of enjoying a trip in the yacht "Dickey Sands," the property of Mr. J. N. S. In returning about 9 o'olook P.

when just off Yellow Book, they were struck by a flaw of wind which carried away the main sheet, and otherwise disabling the boat, left them at the mercy Of the winds and waves. While drifting towards the rocks on the beach, they were enabled to effect an anchorage about twenty rods from tis ihora, and by dint of great exertions were successful in keeping the boat afloat until assistance readied them. But for the efficiency of a Brooklyn policeman, who procured a boat and assistants and secured them, a portion of the party would have ended this excursion anything but pleasantly. As it was they escaped with tune hard knocks and a thorough drenching. la said that during the excitement one of the gentlemen connected with the party performed some exploits with a jack knife on the haliards, in a manner not laid down in any nautical work, either ancient or modern.

Cross examined A great many vessels lav at the Atlantic dock everything was cleanly in Gubbin's house when I was there I saw no stable I did not go into the attic, as I saw no chance of getting there was not in the back room I made the last examination this morning Mr. George Hall suggested to me the propriety of examining the premises this morning, and I went to satisfy myself the first acquaintance I had with Mr. Gubbins was in November.

James JDe Revere Bworn I was a member of the Board of Excise last ear I attended all but the first meeting I think the first was in January I am not certain but that it was from the second I was absent can't tell how many licenses was granted prior to the 13th of July the practice ot the Board was to take up ten applicants lrom each ward at every meeting the Board did not decide on granting any particular number of licenses tor the City of Brooklyn do not recollect the application of Gubbins I voted against all applications I had a discussion relative to the granting of licenses with the other members of the Board; the question of qualification was not asked except in a very few instances. Cross examined The application was made to the City Clerk and handed to the members of the Board the reason I voted against granting licenses was that I dil not believe the selling of liquor was necessary to the entertainment of travellers. Tho prosecution here rested, and the Court adjourned. TUIS DAT. Tho Court assembled at tho usnal hour this morning, and the opening argument of the defence was made by Mr.

Sanxay who said, that this was a proceeding ostensibly lor the prosecution and conviction ot certain people elected to and holding the office of Excise Commissioners. They are charged with a violation of their duty in wilfully and corrcptly doing an act they had no rignt to do. This is the ostensible purpose, but the real cause lies far deeper. It is the begining of a great battle about to ba fought against bigotry and intolerance, which first showed itself in the expatrition oi the Baptists iu New England, this spirit which is bound either to rule or roast that element which intermixed iiaslf with ali our political parties, which has caused the election ot men to judical positions to the exclusion of good men because they could nut bow to this spirit of intolerance. It was in this spirit that respectable men had forgotten the duty they owe to themselves.
