' lie la dally being Importuned by letters to twist a little of hU sympathy away from his cattle and bestow It, so to apeak, npon the stranger within hla gates. I have frequently had occasion to allude to the brutality of New York policemen, who are probably the most accomplished skull-smashers anywhere. That systemof skull-smashing it win oeono ui Iheobjects of the 8. P. O. II. B. to do away with. Should Mr. Bergh become president of the new society, corporeal punishment of all kinds and degrees will be done away with, and the present nation of school boys will rise up and call him blessed. At present Mr. Bergh is despised and hated toy earmen. As Mr. Brougham would say: There's not a red marauder In the land Eul longs to have uis hide to have 11 Vanned. I have notloed that juveniles of a sarcastic tnrn of mind are fond of exciting the Ire of elilmney-sweepers by calling after them the mysterious watchword, "Niggers eat hash!" I have witnessed the same effect produced upon a bevy of draymen by the slnjtle phrase, "I'll tell Mr. Berghl" The Rev. Dr. Ewen preached on Sunday morning, in Christ Church, Fifth avenue, a wrmon on the FAILURE OT rROTKSTAWTISlf. The gronnd he took was that Protest ants were alarmed, and that they feel they have lost their Hold lopon the intellect of the masses to-day. Catholicism, he further said, gained more con verts among men than among women, and, therefore, made superior Intellectual appeals. POLICE IH8PKCTI0H tetobe administered during the week to the ntlre police force of this city and Brooklyn. The principal feature In it is that no sergeant, roundsman, patrolman, or doorman is to be taspeoled in any uniform not the property of the wearer. THI WOBK I NO WOMEN'S ASSOCIATION. Z hope yon do not grow tired of hearing about Basan the Sensible, who is as good and earnest woman as ever lived, and one of those Ideal friends of mine to whom I have never been in troduced, and always like better at a distance. The organization of which she is the head ha grown to be a regularly acknowledged Institu tion. Reporters that are bashful (and It is generally admitted that reporters are) attend Us meetings with as much contolenllouinevs as though all the femlulue voices present were deep loned ones fall.rlnir. Kothlng new was done, and there was a good deal of p.ood-natured wrauglins; but Iho asso ciation Is strengthening lis hands by the mere habit of meeting, THE COOPERS, who have, for weeks past, been mtklng tronble for themselves and tbetr employers, struck yes terday in that peculiar branch of labor known as "liquor work." Henceforth they do solemnly swear or affirm that they will not make whisky barrels at the present rate of pay. If their employers expeot them to come up to time, they expect their em ployers to comn down with the stamps. To-morrow (Evacuation Day) THE FIRST DIVISION, NATIONAL GUARD, in to be reviewed by Governor Reuben before Ififih Avenue Hotel. Last summer the 22Dd Regltuent was sojmrn tni: at Long Branch. Tue ladies or New Yore, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Cbloago, there fore, who were at .Long Branoh during that time, are to present the members of the regi ment with a testimonial ot come sort. I would remind the Philadelphia ladles, how ever, that the testimonial In not to be belowd mil Dtcember 10, about a fortnight from now, and that Mr. Brewster, Attorney-General or Pennsylvania, will then "visit this city for the purpose of presenting It. Tbe regiment, on lis pari, is Kettle g up a parade, a promenade- con cert, and a hop. OLIVER DYER, the goodest man in Packard's Monthly, bap tised a Bwedenborgian yesterday. Rev.

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecber, not having enough to do in her own house, Is going to start a maga zine called "MOTHERS AT HM.K" It Is expected to be handsomely supported by xnotners wno are always any wnere else. THATCHER, THE NEWSPAPER- ASTBON0MBR, ftvs that there Is snow In the air. Taking him altogether, he is a very good pre dieter of what has Just happened. THI FULTON VSRRT COMPANY la remectfullv rea nested to take a lesson from the Hoboken Ferry Company In the way of ferry management. The Hobokeners, at their ferry at the foot of Barclay street, are never permitted to go on boat d a boat until all her passengers hare lAnaea. Hence person pushes are precluded. In the Fulton terry a flair the Coroner's Jury of contemplative and intellectual fellow-cltt-sens has come to the conclusion that an aool dent has occurred, that a boy has been killed, and that no one's to blame. The (Superintendent of the Union Ferry Com ranv meanwhile is as "happy as a bin sun- sower." and has issued two ukases of profound wisdom, one of which is that the pilots are not to do their eating on the hurricane decks; and the other that a deck-baud must always stand at ine lorwaru pari oi me uoat. By these means It is hoped that collisions will do avoiuea in iuture. TWO 1IOBE TARK9 n Broadway, at Thirly-seoond and Tlilrtv-flfth streets, are in contemplutlon by the Common Council.

AJU A1ABA, CITY INTELLIGENOE. Tbb 'Thiladilphia Dkmocrat." To day the new offlce of the Philadelphia Dfnarrai (German), Noa. 6l2and(tl4 Ubeannt street, were opened. Aout. one year ago Dr. Morwlts, the energetlo proprletorof the paper, finding his present aooommodatlons of entirely too limited a character, effected the purchase of what was once knowu as Jouee' Hotel. From that time until now has been spent in making extensive alterations, to adapt the building for the justness purposes of a large newopaperand printing establishment, and to properly represent the oldest German organ la this city, now over thirty years in existence The five story building ls604 feet wide and 315 feelceep. It extends from uuesnnt toiSansom street, and the largest part of It is devoted to the printing business. The design being to represent it to the eye like a monument to the art of printing, thestatue of Ootenoerg, the in ventor of the art, surmounts toe whole. This statue, nearly ten feet high, Is an exact copy of the celebrated one at. UtraHbourir. a beautiful model of which was furnished by Mr. Franois Julio. Like the oi lglnal, it bean npon ltt btxe the inscription, "And there whs Light." verily a new day was breaking from that, great Inven tion (1-ifiH), and the bright light of Intellect and knowledge radiated liom the Diriupuca oi me printing art to all prU of tDe globe. To pro ptrlv exhibit the luminous character of the noble art, none tint brlnht colors were selocted for the iront or the building, which is punted in a light "BlHinark." The same rule was ap plied to the sUtis, which have been pulnled uu i iHle-BlnsH.

Fiom this vestibule we enter on onr right the publication offloe of the Democrat, and our attention Is at tracted by the fresco painting on tne ceiling. The middle piece represents the blue vault of the heavens, from which deioends the spirit or Kclence, with the two accompany ing (Jenil of Knowledge imparting Arts.

A partition whose outer cover Is a large looking-glass senarates the meln from the adjoining private ornoes of the editor, book-keept-r, eic. etc. The glass serves at the same time as a reflector. Above the petition is a large electric clock, which regulates all the time ieces nsed In every de partment in theestabllHbment. The main por tion of the basement and cellars contain, the rooms for storage and the folding and press and machine rooms. The printing-press em ployed for the printing of the dally and weekly Democrat is one of Bul look's large double-preses, printing bow over 12,01:0 copies on both sides In an hour, and capable of printing over 16,000 on both sides per hour. On the third floor are the German and Knglish Job printing rooms. The composition rooms and the stereotyping department are on tbefouith floor.

The report savt-: Our reading-room Is open from 9 A. M. to 10 P. M., and is daily vislte l by hundreds of youug men, who eagerly avail therrieeives ot lis privileges. The tables are lurntBbed with abundant supplies of valuable leading matter, embracing the leading periodi cals, newspapers, etc ; and visitors are at all tiroes supplied with facilities for writing. The rooms are constantly frequented by strangers seeking employment, auvlce, sym pathy, temporal y homes, or transportation to distant cities, and many have gone forth with gladdeiied hearts from their brief sojourn with ns. A committee of the Board of Managers is present every night to welcome strangers and to promote social feeling among member's. Arrangements have been made with the Managers of the House of Industry By which meals andlcdgirjg are furnished to the desti tute; we have thus supplied during the year two hundred and nfty nine persons, who other wise would have suffered from waut and expo sure. A list of good bourding-nouses Is accessi ble to visitors at all timet. The rooms are furnished at considerable expense, neatly kept In order, and provided with piano and cabinet organ for the uio of the members, and thus rendered a comfortable, attractive, and inviting resort for voting men to pass pleasantly an honr of leisure, when they might otherwise be temptea to seek the excitement of evil associations. To these rooms we most cordially extend a welcome Invitation to oar friends, and earnestly desire frequent visits from those who sympathize In our important worn. We also urge them to Influence their sons and friends to make our rooms their resort In periods of relaxation aud leisure.

Cottage prajer meetings have also beeu held la the lower part of our city under the immediate charge of our energetic and eflloleut Devotional Committee, who have located them lu districts where poveity and crime exist, and by earnem consecration to this work we doubt not it will be blei d of God to the salvation or souls. Weekly cintses for Instruction In Uerman French, Penmanship, Klocutlon, and Vooal Music have been reorganized, and are con- dueled by experienced proftswrs. The charge ot admittance is merely nominal, and many young meu avail themselves of the opportunity Of improvement in tuese Dranoues. During the past year we have added by dona tion and i iiichafee 130 hooks to our library, The avidity wli-n which these books aro sought luipreg.-es ns with the necessity or a l trite id creseof appropriate reading matter, so much needed for years past, and which we have hitherto been unable to furnish.

We only regret, in regard to these lectures, that we are not in possuttsiou of a ball ot sufficient capacity to accommodate theiarve numbers that would attend. We nave already secured a number or first class leotnrers, who will render them very instructive and enter taining. 'i be building we have occupied the past three years has become the property or the Associa tion. An energetlo eff ort, star ted In the spring. has, with the Divine blessing, been suooessfHl, and to tne liberality or tne irienas or the Asso ciation we are Indebted for a home. This pro perty was purchased, by the terms of a lease made in 18A5, for tU5,000. A loan on mortgage secured the principal portion of the purouase money. An enort is now in progress to oniain this entire amount, the pledge conditional npon tbe whole being raised. The aggregate subMorlpilon at the proaent date Is over l'20, Ki, and we are hopelal ef lis early accomplishment, when tbe ball so much needed by the Aisoola tlon rea be provided for.
