"Where are they froing?" aked .Martlri, .la. tie ear of Jefferson brick. "To their bed-rooma, sir."

'".We are a busy ppople, sir," said one of the captains, who was from the West, "and have no time lor reading mere notions. We don't mind 'em If they come to us iu newspapers along with almighty strong stud" of another sort, butdaru jour books." line the peneral, who appeared to quite prow fiiint at the bare thoupbl ot roaliny any thing which was neither mercantile nor politi cal, aud was iiot iu a newspaper, Inquired "if any pcntleman would drink some?" Most of the company, considering this a very choice and seasonable idea, lonneed out one by one to the bar-room In the next block. Thence they probably went to their stores and counting houses; tbence to the bar-room npain, to talk onee more of dollars, and enlarge their minds with the perusal and discussion of screamers; and thence each man to snore in the bosom of his own funny. Now, there had been at the dinner-table a middle-aped man with a dark eye and a sun burnt face, who bad attractea Martin's attention by having something very enpatner and honest in the expreksion ot his features: but of whom he could learn nothing from either of hie neigh bors, who seemed to cousider him quite beneath their notice. He had taken no pait in the con version round the stove, nor had he pone forth with the rest; and now, when be heard Martin tie h for the third or fourth time, he mterpo-ed with some casual remark, as if he desired, with out obtrudiup himself upon a stranger's notice, to eueftoe him in choerlul conversation it he coulo. His motive was so obvious, and yet so delicately expressed, that Martin felt really eratetul to him, and showed him so in the man ner 01 his reply. "I will not ask you," said this penllamau with a smile, as he rose and moved towards him, "how you like my country, for I can quite anticipate yoar real feeling on that noiut. But. as I Bui an American, aud consequently bouud to begin with a question, I'll abk you how do yon I ke the colonel ?" ' "You are so very frank," returned Martin, "that I have no hesitation in saying I don't like htm at all. Thouph 1 must add that I am - be holden to him lor his civility in brinsrini? me heie amt arranging lor my i-tav, on pretty reasonable terms, by the way," he added: re men. b?ring that the colonel had whispered him to that effect, before going out. . "Not much beholden," said the stranger drily. "The colonel occasionally boards packet ships', I have heard, to glean the latest iniormation for liislournul; and be occasionally brings stranger? to board heie, I believe, with a view lo the little percentage which attaches to those good ollices; and which the hostess deducts Irom his weekly bill. I ooo't offend you, I hope t" he added, seeing that Martin reddened. "My dear sir," returued Mtrttn, as they shook hands, "how is that possible? to tell you the truth, I am " "Yen?" said the gentleman, sitting down beside him. am ra'her at a loss, since I must speak plainly,".ta.d Martin, petting the better ot hi9 hesitation, "to know how the colonel escapes wq beaten." "Weill He has hern bea'en once or twice," remaiked the gentleman quietly. "He is ono of a class of men in whom our own Franklin, so Iole ago as ten years belore the close ot the last century, loreeaw our danger ana aisgntce, rer haps you don't know that Franklin, in very severe terms, published bia opinion that those who - were tdandeicd by such fellows as this colonel, havinp no sufficient remedy in the ad ministration of this country's laws, or in the decent and Tight-minded leelinp of its people, were justified iu retorting on such public,nui sauccs by means of a stout cudgel f" . "I was not aware of that," said Martin, "but I am very glad to know it, and I think it worthy ol his memory, especially" hire he hesitated again. "Go on,"" said thf other, smiling.as if he knew what stucK in Martin' throat. "Es-pt daily," pursued Martin, "as I can already understand that it mav have required great courage, even in his time, to write treely on any uestion wnictt was not a party one in inis very tlree country."

A stated meeting of this Socirty was held on Thursday evening last, at its Hall, No. 624 Walnut street, Vice President Chandler in the chair. A number 01 donations were made- to Ihe So ciety, Including one very tine Calcutta rupee, dated Awno Hcpirle 1131, which was presented B'y Mr,,-tTlgh.ton. , . Mr. Hart con.iiiunlcateu an account of a recent discovery ol Itomau gel coins Id Parts. Mr. Phillips read an article relative to niw Kpypt an postage stamps aud recent archieolo gital discoveries in the West. A very interesting original communication was made by Dr. fanlcl (i. Uriuton, iu relation to the newly discovered alphabetical key to the OutrHl American inscriptions at Pulenque, etc. He showed clearly the phonetiB character of those Inscriptions, and traced the origin of all wilting, which he divided Into two clases, "ideographic"' and "pictographies," which lormcr if derived Irom aud is a modification and devel opment ol the latter. Words bear two relations: 1. Ideas relating to outside things. 2. Ideas relatirg to interior things. . Of the first class is picture writing, and can never represent ideas of absolute things. Pure picture writing cannot exist without symbols, which are the beginning of ideographic writing. The tpjptian ideographic writings are rich in concrete Ideas, but are unable to express ab stract oues. Hence, there are many symbols for women in their various relations, such as wire, virgin, and widow, mother, etc., but none lor womaD In the abstract. To such an alphabet, where no ideas are expressed, but only things, the key once lost is pone forever; only a general idea remains from which we can guess at the meaning. The tiausposition from ideographic to phonetic writinp, from symbol to sound, occurs for the hrst time in proper names, which all had once a meaning outside ot the indi vidual who bore them, and had reference to some external object or quality. For example, Jones, John-son; Hobcrtson, Kobin-son, etc. The earliest names ot which we have record are compound words. Amnemonic sign was oilcn aoopted for a portion of the name, an ii'statce whereof is shown in eaily heralcry of articles taken together and combined like a rebus. Thus, Bolton arms were a cask or tun pierced by a cross-bar bolt. Similarly in the most ancient alphabets the un dies of the lelters were taken from some word, and with which thev began. The case In Oiihara, Hebrew, etc. Thus in Hebrew the letter A Is named Aleph, B is Eet, from Bayit, a house; G is Gimel, a camel, etc. M in Gothic is called "Jucm," a wotd common to that stock ol languages, and of most frequent occurrence. ir. Brintou then proceeded to explain the new found Maya alphabet. The Maya race was the most civilized aud cultivated race in America. The ruins of their palaces, etc., Hinply prove it. Their language doubtiess par took in Fome degree of civilization and of a pho netic character. Carloiiebes lound that the Central American figures bear resemblance In object to the Fgyptian ones.

An additional source of trouble in interpreting the inscrip tion Is the omihsiou of words arid the use of aroitrary symbols for others, variable at the win 01 i acn writer.

Detective George H. bmith lett the city In search of one Stephen Allis, w ho, it is alltged, stole $20,000 in Govern ment bonds from the residence of the late Patrick O L'onncll, in the upper scetion of the city. The theft was committed In May last, immediately alter the decease of Mr. O'Uounell; and in consequence of Allis leaving Philiudel phia, suspicion pointed to him. 'A irue bill was lound by the Grand Jury, aud all that remained to be done was the arrest of the defendant. Detective Smith was intrusted with this duty, and yesterday returned to this city, having in his custody the accused, who was found com fuitablv located on a (ami iu Parkcrsburg, Va., which he had recently purchased. Defendant's wife was in some way related to the late Mr. O'Doiinell, and, of couise. Allis was a frequent visitor, ltwaskuown that the deceased was iu possession of Government bonds; but on a search be ing ma.de for them they could not be lound. Other circumstances connected with the diKflppeaniTice' ot the money pointed to the guilt of Allis. He will no doubt be at once taken into Court and tried for the alleged oUVnsc. Detec tive Smith is Indebted to Uflicer Thomas l'.ie gart, ol Paiker'-bng, for assistance rendered him 111 the arrest ol the prisoner. Arrest of a Sneak Thief. Special Officer Charles S.
