The present contest in New Toik, with Mayor Wood and hia aupporters on the ose side, and a coalition of all the other parties and factions on the other, presentg mora disgraceful features than any political struggle in this part of the country for many years. The increasing intelligence, civiliantion and good breeding of the bk had stemmed in some degree the foul stram ptrsonal abuse which was wont to set in against any candidate for public office. In times past the unbridled licentiousness of abuse with which candidates were assailed, not unfrequent ly broke down sensitive, though highly honorable minds, and crushed them forever. Mo man, unless ho possessed an indurated spirit of endurance proof against all the shafts malice and slander could 1st fly, and a far seeing philosophy which looked past the smoke and turmoil of the present to the retributive future, dare permit himself to be put in nomination for a public office. While the use of such weapons was in itself cowardly, ruffianly and brutal, its tendency was to exclude from office decent men, rVeWYotb Itoms.

CakobMi's Cash. Michael Cancemi convicted of tho murder of policeman Eugeno Anderson, was brought up this morning before the Supreme Court at General term, before Judges Mitchell, Clarke, and Davies, to receive sentenee. The Court Room was densely crowded, and the folding doors between that and the Court of Sessions room, were thrown open to accommodate the spectators. Cancemi was attended by counsel, Messrs. Blankman and Ashmead.

The District Attorney presented the record of the proceedings on the indictment and trial of Cancemi in the Court of Sessions and Supreme Court Circuit, up to the final conviction of the aocused, of the crime of wilful murder in the latter Court. Upon this record the District Attorney movedifor judgment against the accused. Mr. Blankman entered into a long argument on the technical construction of the records The return of the writ of certiorari was made to the Court of Oyer and Terminer in and for the City and County of New York, when there legally exists no such Court. That uudir the Statutes of 1855 an indictment in the Court of General Sessions cannot be moved into or tried by the Supreme Court.

He moved for an arrest of judgment on the following grounds 1st. Tho Circuit Court had no jurisdiction in this case, and all the, proceedings ia that Court are coram non Judice. 2d. That the verdict did not find the accused guilty in the manner and form charged in the indictment. 3d.

That the order of certiorari to the Court of Oyer Terminer, was not properly returned. 4th. That if the Circuit Court had jurisdiction in the case, the order specifying at what Circuit it should be tried, should have been made at a Special instead of a General Term, the powers of the latter being simply appellate. 6th. That this indictment was an indictment of the Court of Sessions and never could become except.for purpose of trial, an indictment of tho Court of Oyer and Terminer.

6th. t.ThatJthe law of 1847 conferring power to try capital offences in the court of General Sessions, repeals all previous acts giving the Supreme Court the power to remove indictments from the Court of Sessions to the Oyer and Terminer. Mr. Hall briefly replied to the above points, disposing of the legal objection to the regularity of the records and the designations in the orders. The question of the jurisdiction of this Court, he would leave to tbe Court to decide, they had doubtlessly been satisfied as to their jurisdiction before they took cognisance of this case.

Mr. Blankman entered into an elaborate argument on the points raised which occupied the Court up to one o'clock. Brutal Assault About II o'clock last night a man named Michael Gilmartin was wantonly assaulted in Mulberry street by three men, who beat him savagely, and one of them bit off part of his er. They did not attempt to rob him, but assaulted him seemingly out of sheer wantonness, without any provocation. No arrests were made.

Extensive Eobrert on Shipboard. On Saturday evening an extensive robbery was committed on board the bark Pawtucket, bound for Trinidad, W. I. During the absence of the Captain, (JIc3eam) the first mate and the stew At the concert lately given at the Court of Vienna in honor of Lizst, the groat artist having left his glove on tbe piano, there was an instantaneous rush to the instrument to obtain possession of the relic. The struggle among tho ladies was tremendous ana me oazure me glove was torn to pieces, but each lady proclaimed herself delighted with the small remnant which fell to her share.

One of the princesaess, Waldeck, who captured the top ot the thumb, has had it set in the handle of her eye glass, where, surrounded by brilliants, it excites per petual envy amongst ner uusuuucnoiiu nvcmj. Dasoing nt VruNSA. A letter from Vienna .1 11.: says "DanciDg'wm oe quiie tue iugo una winter in this city if we may judge from the number of persons who are noyv frequenting the saloons 01 liregoire, tne ceieoreriea iukolci mni art. A new dance has been just brought out under the name of the Beichs Quadrille, and which is composed of six figures German, Hungarian, Polish, Italian, Tyrolean, and Viennese. This winter will therefore have for novelties' the Reichs Quadrille and the Lancers." Dress at the French Court.

The progress of extrvagance i dress has provoked a slight coun ter demonstration on the part of the French Court. Last year it was understood that no lady invited to Compeigne could appear twice in the same dress. This season it has been intimated tbat the reappearance of a dress once in the course of a week will be not only tolerated but approved. The consequence is that ladies invited to pass a week at Compiegne pack up only eight dresses instead of Bixteen. M.

Houdin amazed the Algerine Arabs by "his conjuring tricks?" bat a far more wonderful effort of French ingenuity and energy has proved to the children of the desert that water in un failing quantity may be commanded in the midst ot the idlo sarids of tho burning East. Ar tesian wells have been' sunk in the Sahara the water has gushed forth, and continues to run 4 000 quarts in tbe minute the Bedouins are in testacies, and begin to fors wear their nomadic habits to settle the "quiet waters oy. we are informed that the Russians have already bored at proper intervals all the way through Persia to our Indian trontier, ana cave assured tnemseives of the practicability of being supplied with wa ter through the entire route. Qdarrel between America add Franktort. A singular dispute has just arisen between the free city of iranktort and tne United states 01 America.

The police of the former city has interdicted the residence there ot an old politics) refugee of the name of Froebel, who has since become an American citizen. M. Froebal played a certain part in the events of 1848. In consequence of this interdiction he haa applied to M. heicker the American consul, who has threatened to break off his relations with the Senate oi Frankfort if it persists in maintaining the order of expulsion of a citizen of the United States.

Miseries or a MiLLiosAmii. There is a curious story about the late Mr. Moirison, who has rccentlv died worth four millions of money. It is said tbat during the last two years of his life he was the victim of a singular mental nalluci nation, imagining that he was in the utmost poverty, and that only by daily labor could he get daily bread. His friends accordingly used to place a spade in his hands, and set him to work for a short time in the garden, paying him week ly wages of a few shillings, and in tens way alone would he be quieted.

xuustraiea limes. The extravagance and prodigality of the aris tocracy of iitirupe may bo esumited trom the following, which we clip from the Paris corres Dondent of tbe Memphis Bulletin, who writes 1 ho young Countess Marie Dorethee de Castel line has just been united to Prince Frederic de Bidziwill, a Prussian officer. Portions of tbe lady's wedding equipment (Or trousseau) have been exposed in Paris. In this colle3tiou there were a number of rare handkerchiefs eo beautiful are 'they that one could think they had escaped from the slender weavings of fairies, and not from the mortal hands of sewing women. I counted In the window vhcrc they were displayed no less than sixty handkerchiefs, costing from two to three hundred dollars each.

On some of them the embroidering of tbe aims 01 the house alone cost eighty dollars. The arias, of the of the houses Castelline and Radziwill were interwoven and surmounted by tbe crown of the Prince all this was in pare gold, Tne threads were metallic, malleable, pure, and So arranged as not to dim in washing. There were seven cashmere shawls, of seven different colors one was white, embroidered with gold and turquoise." Mr. Justice Coleridoe on Obscene Literature. Ingenious attempts having been made to evade the recent act for the suppressing of obscene publications, Mr.

Justice Coleridge, of the Qaeen's Bench, brought the subject to tho attention of a recent grand jury in the following terms "Why I mention tho subject now, when it does not appear to have a direct bearing on your duties is, that sometimes persons who are engaged in trade of this kind are disposed, by tbe use of a mischievous kind of ingenuity, to think to turn the table on the public by prosecuting works and publications under the color that they are of an objectionable kind, when, infact, there is no foundation for it and it is not uncommonly said that this or that picture of some great artist, or this or that statue, or this or tbat poem, is a fit subject to be prosecuted, and ought properly to be so, as well as those loose, pernicious and voluptuous prints and pictures 1 am referring to. It is very easy for an ingenious person so to deceive himself, and perhaps others, with arguments of that kind but common sense always ives an answer to it, for no one could doubt that a picture, print or poem, fully treated of in the rational course required by the subject, in connection with high art haB not that mischievous and improper tendency complained of. No doubt a corrupt mind brought to bear on such works might perhaps be made worse by them, but an honest and chaste mind drew nothing bad from them, but on the contrary, received high, pure, and instructive pleasure from their contemplation. Take for as an example, what every one must have read, Milton's playful description of Eve contemplating her person at a fountain, and which one of our modern sculptors has endeavored to realize in a statute familiar to all, from the number of prints and cuts that have been producod from it. Who can suppose for a single moment that either the author of 'Paradise or Bailey the sculptor, believed that, in what they produced, they were producing anything to leave a bad effect on morals, and to prcsecuto 'Paradise because it contained the beautiful lines descriptive of Eve at the fountain would be as absurd as Biily, if he had represented Eve in the statue, dressed, audit would only be an abuse of the laws of the country and an insult to the common sense of the grand jury, to present such a bill before them.

On the other hand, such books, pictures, as those found in Holywell street, common nse pointed out as objects to excite depraved passions, and which ought to be prohibited. Such prosecutions as I have alluded to have taken place, and the court been insulted by trials of this kind in respect of high art and literature, and may occur again, lc is possible, therefore, that taking advantage of your sitting here, such matters may be presented to you for your consideration. If, therefore, anything of tbat kind be brought before you, instead of looking at isolated passages in a book or a picture, I recommend you to look at the thing Itself, and see if this general object is such that an indictment should be returned, arid if not throw out the bill, aiid not suffer such a thing to como into a court of justice. Messrs. Appleton in order to enable the workmen recently discharged from their establishment to earn somo honorable support during the winter, have determined to supply them With valuable books to sell from house to house.

These are furnished to them at an unusual discount, rial has reached its second number and exhibits more strongly marked features of the character that is to distinguish it than did the initial issue. It was difficult to tell while the bird was emerging from the shell what Its nature or tint would be whether its natural element was the regions of the air or the bosom of the water whether its hue was to be dusky as the raven, or soft and white as the cynet'a down. Or, to change the metaphor, there was no telling whether the result of the literary accouchment was to be an African bantling or a member of the Caucasian literary family. True, it resent ed a suspicious longitude of heel and pendancy of the aether lip, with a frizzly tendency of the capillary sproutings but these indications might be modified by a further derelopment The second number, however, removes all doubts and stamps the enterprise as a vehicle for the diffusion of the most rabid abolition ism th boldest infidelitv. and the most arrogant self conceit.

Genuine literature, like tho fabulous touchstone of the alchemistsi elevates and ennobles all it touches but the diluted and spurious counterfeit of Boston de rrradefi eveTv tonic it attemDts to erase. Babid denunciations of the scriptures and the federal constitution, might be viewed with some leniency when emanating from Garrison or Fred Douglass, but when a literary magazino outstrips the wildest ravings of the most hopelessly demented fanatic, in scurrilous language, which has not even tho excuse of political excitement, itbecomeB offensive to the most moderately cultivated taste. In an article entitled "Where will it End?" The "base repeal" of the Missouri Compromise, we are told, shows "tho slaveholder's regard for promises to be as sacred as that of a pettifogger for justice, or a dicer for an oath," and Missour1 is said to be "the very nursing mother of Border Kuffianism," while slavery, wo are told, has the American Government, the American Press, American Church, in its national organizations, on its side." In an article on Thomas Carlyle the second god in the Boston mythology, the being the chief Jupiter tonans and Magnus Apollo it is stated that "Religion is now so faT dead that it consists in little than formalities," and covert sneers at Christianity peep cut from every hole and comer. The magazine is nothing more than a medium for tbe dissemination of a dilut ed and apeish imitation of German transcendental infidelity and sectional niggerism and the spicing of wit which some of the writers contribute, instead of redeeming it, only excite addi tional disfavor by degrading talent to such base uses. Astronomical.

Dr. Luther of the University of Bilk (somewhere in Europe,) has discovered a new asteroid between Jupiter and Mars. Com ets had got to be so common, everybody was discovering one, so astronomers had to take to other heaveily bodies. They have commenced on asteroids, and may expect a large addition of these dubious planets to the solar collection. Unlike comets, they are peaceably disposed bodies have no tails, and are not addicted to running against anything or doing damage to other bodies, but keep in their own orbits like well behaved planets.

1 herefore we can endure the discovery of any quantity of them. A Large Family. When TTnolo Sam started in business for himself his family circle numbered thirteen members. He has gone on increasing, multiplying, and replenishing the earth, until his responsibilities number thirty one, des several territorial embryos of great promise. All his children are well behaved and thrifty, and rarely need constitutional correction.

Tho only unruly relative of the family is Utah, which like a bad boy has taken to licentiousness and rebellion, but it will soon learn to behave itself after a gocd ppankirig, and will, in time, become a respectablo member of the family. In Hot Watrr Again. The advices from Central America are imoortant, under the present circumstances. War had been officially declared between Nicaragua and Costa Rica, and President Martinez, of the former republic, was preparing to place himself at the head of the army. His proclamation announces the determination to maintain the right of the republio to the territory claimed by and now in possession of Costa Rica.

Col. Canty had possession of the river and lake steamers. No important operations have yet been undertaken by either party. Where's Walker SwEEDrsn Womex. The bedding everywhere along the road is of home made linen, and I do not recollect an instance where it has not been brought out fresh and sweet from the press for us In this, as in all other household arrangements, the people aro very tidy and cleanly, though a little diffident as regards their persons.

Their slothing, however, is of healthy, substantial character, and the women consult comfort rather than ornament. Many of them wear cloth pantaloons under their petticoats, which therefore, they are able to gather under thtir arms in wading through snow drifts. I have not seen a low necked dress or thin shoe north of Stookholm. 'The damsol who trips by claydroak, Is shod like a mountaineer." Yet a sensible man would sooner take such a damsel to wife than any delicate Cinderalla of tho ball room. I protest, I lose all patience when I think of the habits of our American women, especially our country girls.

If ever the Saxon race docs deteriorate on the American de of the Atlantic, as somo etbeoloyists anticipate, it willbewholly thcirfault. Bayard Taylor in northern Europe. Railroad Celebkations. Messrs. Appleton, of JS'ew York, have in press, and will issue very gh.irtly, a new and interesting volume containing some four hundred pages, with Bundry illustrations, entitled Tbe Book of the Great Railway Celebration of 1857 embracing histories 8nd descriptions or the several roads between Baltimore and St.

Louis. It will also contain a full list of the names of the guests invited by Ohio and Mississippi, Baltimore and Ohio, Marietta and Cincinatti, and other roads, with a great variety of matters of general interest, fcrming a work of peculiar value to the great railroad community of the country, and of much interwt to all readers. We learn that in order to defray tbe cost of publication a limited number of cvpies will be issued for general disposal, after B'ipplj iDg tho orders of the railroad companies. The price of the work will not exceed $1,26 per py, well bound, and the public bos in the character of its chief compiler (understood to be Mr. W.

Prefcott Smith, the energetic assistant master of transportation of tho Baltimore and Ohio Railroad) a guarantee that it is no catch penny, ut w.rtliy of public favor. We are further informed that the furthcoming work will contain full and original accounts of tbe various ban que'sgtveu on the interesting occasions referred to, in which are embraced completo reports of many of the best speeches delivered by somo of the most distinguished men of the country, together with much other highly instructive and interesting matter, which cinnot fall to mako it one 0 the most readable works of (he season. cans none of the theatres not even the Gaiety paying their expenses. Mr. and Mrs.

Waller are at the Richmond, theatre. The Siamese Twins were exhibitine in portions of Virginia last week. They have six of their children with them, they have fourteen in all. A gentlemen of Cincinnati, feeling indignant at some remarks about Miss Heron' 1 acting, which wer contained in a letter w.itten by a person connected with a morning paper, went to tne editorial rooms, and attacked tne reporter, and a regular fist ensued. The parties however, were seperated, the champion of "Camilla" with more bruises than beauty, and the latter with a few scratches, and dishevelled wig.

Mr. Murdock waa playing at Wood's theatre, Cincinnati, last ween, it is stated tnac ne nas made an engagement to plav seventy consecutive nights in New Orleans, St. Louis and Cincinnati for which he is to receive the snug little doucer of ten thousand dollars. The Strakosch Concert troupe were at Bait' more, last week. Vieuxtemps was too sick t9 appear at either of the concerts Philadeiphiai and Frezzolini made no sensation.

Edwin Booth has completed his engagements in Cincinnati, and it is said that the largest audience ever crowded within the theatre was present on the occasion of Mr. Booth and Miss Eliza Logan appearing together in Shakespeare's comedy of "jaucn Ado About Hotning. Mr. Booth opened in Buffalo on Monday inight, and Miss Eliza Logan is in Buffalo. Tbe prices at the arch street theatre, Philadelphia, have been reduced to 25 cents.

Mrs. FanDy Kemble read the "Merchant of Venice" in Boston, on Thursday night, for the benefit of the poor. Miss Heron concluded her engagement at the National, Cincinnati, on Saturday night. Miss Juliana May has given a very successful concert at Washington, and will shortly give one in Baltimore. The Corradi Setti Opera troupe, with Vestvali, were expected in Matanzis on the 16th inst.

Parodi, it is said, has joined the troupe. Mrs, Farren has commenced a fortnight's engagement at the National, Cincinnati. A Mr. Felix Piot, from Paris, with a company of tableaux vivant artists, similar to the KeUer troupe, is at the Mobile theatre. A project is on foot to erect by subscription a new theatre in Washington, D.

the control of which will be given to Messrs. Kunkel Co. rOREIGlf MUSIO AND THE DRAMA. Mr. and Mrs.

Barney Williams had received an invitation to visit Cork, from the Mayor of that city, with a request that they would mane his homo their home during their stay. Edward Loder, an eminent composer, ia in a private Lunatic Asylum. Kate Hayes, now Mrs. Bushnell, was In Paris, at laiit accounts, on her way to Italy. A friend in London, writing to the Boston Gazette, says: "There is a scheme on foot to bring out Italian Operas on an immense scale next season in Amcrici, to take in effect the whole of the company from Her Majesty's Theatre, choruses, band, artists, attaches, Thlrtconlh Regiment National Greyj, Theprospecs of the 13th Eegt.

never appeared so flattering as they have since its members adopted the dress and. name of the National Greys. Under the old regulation dress it was impossible to recruit, and men who were in the companies did not appear to take the interest and pride that have lately sprung up throughout the Regiment. In consequence of the shabby appearance of the old uniform, those who did feel inclined to join a military association were compelled to go to New York in order to connect themselves with a Regiment of respectable appearance. The 13th in adopting the grey will put a stop to this going to our arijoiniDg city, and will induce many who belong to companies in New York and live in Brooklyn to quit their New York companies and join the 13th.

It is singular that the officers have not discovered before this the reason why they could not increase their number of men. As an illustration of what this chaDge bos accomplished, take the present companies of the Regiment. Those who have previously managed to drag their slow length along, are now recruiting at the rate of two to one of their former rates, and companies who had lest nearly all their men are again coming into their proper position. CompaDy his, as far as members are concerned, been out of existence for some time. Since the adoption of the new dress a new company has been formed on their old charter, and on Friday evening the members held an election for Captain, when Mr.

M. W. Griswold was unanimously elected to that post. Mr. Griswold was formerly attached to Company (Brooklyn City Cadets) now National Greys.

The offices of Lieutenants, and such others as are not actually required, will not be filled up until they obtain more men when those that attend to their duties the best and make the best soldiers, will be elected to the vacant offices. At their last meeting this corpse received application from members of other Regiments to be admitted into their ranks, when the subject was referred to a future meeting. The initiation fee was fixed at $2, and the monthly dues at 50 cents. The uniform required for the first year will be simply the fatigue dress, which must be correct in every respect, and no member after once obtaining his drefs, will be allowed, on any consideration, to fall into the ranks ia citizens' dress, as is the case with most of the Brooklyn Companies. The plan of equiping the first year only in fatigue is the samo as was adopted by the 71st of New York.

Company F. have made arrangements for hiring the large room in the Franklin Buildings, comer of Fulton and Orange where they intend erecting a beautiful Armory for muskets and such other things as are required for the use of the Company. Mr. Griswold has a bard task before him, as most of the men are entirely unacquainted with tbe manuel of arms or any of the movements. We only wish him success, and that he.

may. turn out as nice a company in a year from the present time as any in the Regiment. X. Excitement Boston. The "solid men" of Boston are in a fever of excitement concerning the reported defalcation in that city of Mr.

Saml. Lawrence, the senior member of tbe firm of Lawrence, Stone Co agents of the Bay State Mills and other manufacturing corporations, From the accounts which have been published, it appears that Mr. Lawrence was treasurer of the Bay State Mills, and employed the credit of the company in his private speculations to the amount of half a million of dollars, or thereabouts. It furthermore appears that the function of treasurer and agent have in this instance become so mingled as to make it somewhat uncertain upon which the alleged deficit should fall. It is certain, however, that the stock of the company was offered on Saturday at 12 1 2 per cent on the par ($1,000) without finding a purchaser, and that manufacturing stock in Massachusetts hnn received a blow from whioh it will not soon recover.

A Vaiuable Paper DiscoNTmmus. We find tbe following paragraph in the Boston Post. We beg leave to unite our regrets with those therein expressed We regret to learn that the Sprinefield Argus is discontinued. It has been published, daily and weekly, by Elon Comstock, Esq for two years, and has rendered valuable service to the democratic cause in this State. The recent financial difficulties are stated as the cause of suspension, although Mr.

Coimstock believe! after, publishing his paper for about a year auda half, that his experiment had succeeded, and that the establishment was plased on a sure foundation. We had certainly hoped and believed, so too. LOOK AT THE BARGAINS IN DRY GOODS, IO BB OPINED THIS PAT, BY a. P. DICKINSON CO.

A AND HI3 wife, or two alnglc sentlcmrn cnu be uccomin i'cd Trti urd by applying at w7 Adtunii Also twj young la Tsibu moderate, who valued personal reputation and did not wish to afford every pothouse scoundrel an op portunity to "filch from them their good and left the field to the possession of fellows with no character to lose. The improvement which has taken place in this respect has been marked and salutary. While every officer' spublic character is the property of his constituents and the public, he can retire behind the veil of private life, without the fear of its sanctities beiDg polluted by the track of the eveB dropping slanderer. But the present oentest in New York seems to have reproduced all the most odious and barbarious features of the past.

Personal abuse, alone, in which there is not a mole hill of truth to every mountain of falsehood, is the sole and exclusive artillery brought to bear against Mayor Wood. Weapons dow obsolete in all civilized political contests, as the scalping knife or poisoned arrow in civilized war, constitute the exclusive contents of the arsenal from which the opponents of Mayor Wood, claiming to be, par cxctlkna, the elite of the city, have donned their armor. Mayor Wood has been a public officer for a number of years long enough to afford an opportunity to judge of his character as a servant of the public. Every one of hiB official acts affords a legitimate subject for scrutiny and comment. But when his assailants go beyond this, follow him into private life to find delinquencies with which the public have nothing todo, and to invent crimes and errors if they can find no real ones they degrade political warfare to the level of Ked Indian or Sepoy atrocities and excite a sympathy in every honest man's bosom forthe object of their The ltadtw of the anti Wood movement are the authors of tho infamous Albany legislation of last winter.

To that legislation the people at the last election administered a withering rebuke. Of tbe members of tho Legislature elect, ed in tho Metropolitan Police District, every wan is a pledged opponent of thit legislation. They cannot conduct the contist which culminates to morrow on the merits of their own past acts but they hope to accomplish the result by indirection. Ab Mayor Wood was the head and front of tho resistance of New York against its enslavers, his defeat will he hailed and boasted of us a condemnation of that resist and a proof of a change of sentiment in Iiivor of the usurpation and it will be used at Albany as a license for a continuance of the le gislation of last winter. Their Mode of warfare Is always the same.

man who has been identified with them in any of their schemes can eome before the public fjr their suffrages. They Invariably put up somo renegade Democrat as a puppet to put in front of the screen. When they wanted a Presidential candidate, it was not Chase nor Seward, nor any one of the champions of their doctrines thty selected, but a pliable deserter from the ooDosite camo. 80 with Tieman a man of plastic putty, who would be in their hands like Uy in the hands of a potter, and could be tiied, as they used Governor Clarke, as a cloak far cprruption, black mail, tho sale of offices and general plunder. With some easy, good natured tool at the head and Tom Hyer asd Jim Irving at the tail, Black Republicanism in New York wculd be complete.

The citizocs of New York will not reverse the decision thev rendered so emDliaticallv at the recent election. The Herald' 1 correspondence p'aces the Administration on tbe s'do of Mayor Wood, and the Timti and Tribune declare that Tieman's election is desired at Washington. The fact that the Washington Union emphati cally urges Wood's election, is sufficient proof that so fur as the Administration feels disposed to interfere in local contests, it, of course, de sires the success of the Democratic candidate. Any statement to the contrary is simply prepoB tirous. It is further said that District Attorney Mc ieon will be removed for his course in the mat tor.

Whether the Administration will thick it worth while to remove him is a matter of doubt; but the impropriety of his retaining the position is obvious. Perfect liberty of action is the right of every citizen he may voto a different political ticket every election, if parties change often enough to allow him but when he finds it necessary to work against a party lie should decline to hold a lucrative position in that party. Mr. McKeon cannot expect to caper and snort, Mid enjoy ail the unbridled license of the wild horse of the desert, and at the same time walk up to his diurnal mess of fodier at a master's crib. If his Eenso of right compels him to work agiiust a party, his sense of decency ought to adtuon'sk him not to remain its pensioner and eat its bread ami butter.

New Paper, Eli Thayer haa started a paper about six miles bblow Guyaudotte, Va. Whether bo intends to convert tho Virginians to abolitionism or has been converted by them does not appear, ard, named respectively John Kemick and VVm.

Charles L. Tucker, doing business at 86 Cedar st N. residing at 92 Washington Brooklyn, has been arrested on a charge of stealing a quantity of cutlery from Mr. John Wild, doing business in the same building. Some weeks ago Mr.

Wild missed 126 dozm of pocket knives, valued at $613, but was unable at first to discover by what means the theft had been committed. The place had not been entered by neither had he any dishonest clerk in his employ and how and in wnat manner the property vanished was a mystery. A careful examination of the premises soon put Mr. Wild upon the track of the alleged thief. He found that egress could be had to his store from the adjoiniLg office of his neighbor, Chas.

L. Tucker, by means of a fanlight over a door connecting the two stores, which was large enough to admit the body of a good sized man. Suspicion at once fell upon his next door neighbor. The suspected party was traced to his lodging and there confronted by the officer and Mr. ild, Search of the room was made for the stolen pioperty, which resulted in the discovery 120 dozm of the stol knives.

A posse of the Deputy Superintendent's aids made a descent Friday night on the house No. 147 Grand street, occupied by a woman styling herself Midame Lambert. They took away about $15,000 worth of costly jewelry, richsilks, satins, laces, India shawls, gorgeous dresses, claiming that they are the products of the shoplifting carried on by the "lady boarders" of her establishment. Madame L. alleges that she came honestly by the goods.

She has been admitted to bail. The examination is set down for Tnursday. Am Important Decision. Judge Davies, in the Supreme Court on Saturday, in the case of McDermott, a member of the ld police, who was dismissed without formal notice to appear for trial, decided that the plaintiff was still a member of he police and entitled to pay and duty. The udge gave it as his opinion that all the old police who were not personally served with written notices of charges against them, and afforded an opportunity to defend themselves, were not legally discharged, and that such being the case, the proof before him was that the police was now full, snd that appointments made by the Board mu6t be in valid Tho decision was given orally, but the Judge promised a written opinion to day.
