Mr. Motley's lecture before the Historical Society
a few evenings ago, has been the subject, of some
criticism in the newspapers. This is owing to
the fact, perhaps, , that the reports given to the
preee were incomplete, and-do not-do-justice to
the author. The omissions madein thesereports
are numerous and important. Mr. . tley is
well known, all over the world, as _ a - f end, of
republican government, a friend of liberty; and I
am assured,that.when the entire address is,-.pub
lished bY_thd society before whom it was fie
livered, it will be plainly shown that its anther is
a friend of the Hungarians. whose affairs he has
carefully studied, and that he has done them am
ple justice. Some of the reportelkalte it appear
that Mr. Motley's opinions are governed by those
in vogue atEuropean courts; but as a historian,
be IS too well aware of the importance of strict
impartiality in historical researches to allow his
judgment to be thus biased. --f-•--- - - --
W. Colfax, the Vice President elect, was in
the city last nighteand Was called upon by a
large number of prominent citizens. At the ban
quet whit% the Philadelphia Union League gave
him on Saturday nlght,he tersely and handsomely
recognized the national demand upon the in
coming adthinistration. He said: 'The most
searching retrenchment, honesty, efficiency and,
higher character in all connected with the public
service; rigid guardianship of the treasury against
unwise i and extravagant echemee of financial
policy; which -shall maintain our- credit undi
miniehed, appreciate our envoi:icy, and.place ns
on the firm rock of specie payments-'-these are
objects which the new administration shall labor
to secure." These are golden worde,right worthy
of .the high official who utters them, and of the
adininistration whose motto should henceforth be
adopted by the great party which places it in
power.
,--- Horace Greeley prints in yesterday's Tribune a
p , . three-colunin reply to the recent speech of Sena
tor Morton. of Indiana, on the currency ques
tion. The indefatigable old patriot who watches
~..1- election returns and national debt figures with
the eagernees of one who, unlike the Ghost in
Hamlet, bath speculation in his eye, appreciates
in.the main the arguments of the distinguished
Senator in his great speech, bat takes strong '
ground against him on the subject of prompt
r resumption; holding as he always has held since
ft;the national debt began to grow so alarmingly,
10 that the Government should begin at once to re
. same on its seventy millions of cobs, and to pro-
v.& further means of maintaining specie pay
ments. His argument is very plain and simple
and straightforward, as all that Horace Greeley
- writes or sass must be, and will undoubtedly
It ye its effect upon the Congress of the United
8 ass during the present session. Whatever
may he said of the old man's vagaries, it whet
alwayb be admitted by thinking men that his
-views on public questions are honest, and that
rovhatever be Buys or wishes on these questions is
prompted by au earnest desire to promote and

For some weeks past, Henry Ward Beecher
--7
Lae been delivering, from the Plymouth pulpit,
the most scathing denunciations of oar corrupt
4 judiciary. In one of his recent sermons he used
4 expressions to which exception was taken by a
rash;;, ou.ag man, a lawyer named Peckham,a son
of Jo , st Peckham, of Albany. This young limb
of the law vented his anger and his rhetoric in a
very sharp letter to Mr. Beecher, whereupon the
distinguished pnlpit-orator replied in a emetic
epistle, a copy of which I have just had the plea
sure of reading. It Is a valuable document,
,_ whether viewed from a literary standpoint or
considered in connection with its bearing upon
public morals. You may judge of the general
- tenor 01 the letter by the few sharp pungent sea
, knee which I subjoin: "The corruption which
begins in New York cannot be kept there. The
poison once introduced will circulate through the
- . whole system. - The larger inland cities will aeon
show signs of deterioration and the most rural of
' `districts will gradually become infected. The
~ tone of judicial honor will steadily fall; Judges
will cease to have a high standard of duty; as
their conscience loses delicacy they will perform,
without compunction, acts which would have
made the illustrious men of a past judiciary
shudder, until all Mews of right and wrong will
- . have sank so low that when notorious corruption
;I , is reprehended, civilians will be found ltke your

S e • scioneness, cannot dream what men mean by

-, use their courts as instruments of pleasing their

. friends, as partisan political engines, as means of
0 ' enriching their latent partners, and of swelling
l'• the fortunes of sons and_lonesin.law, and- who
-- 'e, bring the practice - of the law to such a condition

IA that young men of high anti sensitive honor are

Zwo allltons Worth of Property
tyrom the Chicago Post of Deo.lBth.l
We understand that the prbrier authorities of
the city arc-engaged In e.xamining into certain
fraudulent transactions connected with the real
estate of Chicago; and thatprogress enough has
m
been ade in the inquiry to justify the belief that
property to the amount of tally two millions of ,
dollars has'. by parties unkn'own, been stolen by
means of fraudulent tax Mica and forged deeds,
for the benefit of whosoever may have been con
cerned: We are not. et in possession of all the
facts, but it appetite from what we have teamed,
that many cases of robbery involving large tracts
of property inside the - city limits have been sus
pected, and that among these are the following
as samples of more
Eighty acres of ',land, the property of the city
near Brighton. This is covered by a forged or
fraudulent deed to one David . Stark, whois be
lieved to be a myth. '
- We are without the date of
the alleged transfer,but the tnuisrictiOn is a re-
cent one. David Stark'appears to' bo &careless
owner. Once In possession of his property he
neglected to pay taxes. As a consequence ,the
land has 'been sold again and again for these
dues, and is now covered by tax titles, the worth
of which, though they stand , in , various: names,;,
somebody doubtless knows. The last transfer
appears to be by one Walter S. Frazier, once in
- the - tmploymentof -- Ourcity, to Isaac - Cook, - the
consideration being $l. - How Mr. Frazier came
by the right to make a deed will be a proper sub- ,.
jeer for inquiry.; In relatien to this tract,-the Ob
ject of the conspirators seems to have been plain,
to„ get the proper - W*6Y' means of a forged
- deed-from• the city out' a - of the eity's - possesidon,
and then to allow title to be , forfeited by frequent
_tax sales andthe•right of-possession. -Of -course
all these will be vitiated by, the primary fraud.
But somebody han-beerwor -somebody might be
victimized nevertheless.
In the North Division, between Clark and La
Salle streets,ls a large tract of city propertyoow
having on•lt thirty-Mght houses, vvhich also
pears toltave been stolen by means of a forged
deed.froli,the:city,to onelra Judd;,who is like
Daniel Starietniknown and unfindable. The con
sideration in this,case was also 43.1; and the mode
of perfecting, or rather of accumulating, evi
dences of-tide seem to have been - akin to, if not
identical with, that.adopted by those who mani
pulated the tract at Brighton. We are sorry to
know that severtd_estimabloAitizens, among
whom are Mr.; Latina . , the architect, and Robert
Lincoln, son of the late President, are likely to
be sufferers , by the fraud, they having hi good
faith pnrchatod lots in the tract in 'question. The
value of the property is very great.
A large piece of land, in the' adjoining town of
Palos,has also been run. sway with. A deed of
this was milde_ to the city by a distinguished-citi
zen, Pose - dead. - ---W - . H. Brown, Esq. - Bat this
deed, thongkAposited in the.., arm/ins by Mr.
Brownoiever was redorded. It was abstracted
by come one having access to the city papers.
And then certain parties, as yet 'nameless, wont
to work to get a quit claim from the owner who
deeded it to Brown, and, after - this .was accom
plished, the machinery of tat sales and tax bills
was resorted to, and with the usual success.
These - are specimen bricks; but how many
more there may be,.in the pile we have not
learned. It is evident on the tare of these trans
actions that some man who was familiar with the
city business, who had an intimate knowledge of
its real property, and who had access to the
papers, has_ had n share, if not the sole agency,
in these frauds. At the time they. were corn- •
milted; the value of the lots and lands stolen was
not large; but the advance of property in the last
few years has been BO great, that the supposed

The name of Baron Brisse Is known wherever
the word gourmand is understood. Having spent
a great part of his life at the dhutter-tables of the
rich, the brave Baron, since his retirement, from
the staff of the LiberM, has. turned his' attention
to the kitchens of the middle class. His daily
menus published in Timoth6e Trimm's penny
paper, the Petit Journal, have a tremendousi pop
ularity in France, and we believe , will not be
without interest in this country,notwitlastanding
the slighedifferences in our modes of seasoning,
&c.
Chuck-ribs of Beef with Vegetables.—Them is
hardly a greater error, for modest households,
than preferring the best pieces of inferior ani
mals to the cheap bits of excellent beeves calves
or sheep. Any one who can and will follow my
prescription to-day will be abundantly convinced
of this.
Try to buy the chuck ribs of a fine beef and
prepare as follow e:
Chuck-ribs and vegetables; divide the - piece of,
bees if too 'large. 'Mace the whole in a pot or
earthen jar, surrounded and covered with coarse
salt, cover the pot, and leave for five or six
days. •
To cook, relieve it of the salt, wash slightly in
soft water uud bet it to cook in a large kettle or
earthenware pot, without too much water; when
the foam has risen, season with a little onion
stuck over with cloves, and with a bay-leaf; let it
bon an hour, then stir in plenty of (blanched)
cabbage, carrots, turnips, potatoes, &e., and
allow them to cork gently until done.
At the time of serving, make a butter-sanee
without browning it too much, mixing it with
the remains of the water in which the beef and
vegetables were cooked: season with salt and
pepper, if necessary: let it simmer down, and
servo in a large man. the vegetables beneath, the
meat upon them, a part of the sauce poured over,
and the rest in a boat.
There, lattice, permit me to recommend this
excellent preparation, fit to be eaten in the palace
or the cottage.-:—Petit Journal.
Recovery oit Dr. Rctiostes Morse.
The Trenton GaZElle pubilsties the following
story of the recovery of the horse stolen from
Dr. McCosh a few days ago:
"The $1,500 horse, presented to Dr. McCosh,of
Princeton College, by Mr. Bonner, of the New
York Ldeger, anti recently stolen from his sta
bles, was recovered by Officer Brown, of,the
Trenton 'Police force,' yesterday. Mr. Brown ••re- -
celved information which led him to believe that
the horse was in the custody of a man named
Abbot, a farmer living out on the Sand town
road, andgoing out there on Thursday
night, be demanded the horse. Mr. Ab
bott refnstd to surrender the horse in the night
time, BC) Prom/Auld - hits lib:should hold hica=re
sponsible for the animal, and returned to this
city. He went out agate yesterday and pro
moted the horse. Abbott says he found it stand
ing at his gate. Dr.: McCosh had offered $59 re
we'd for the recovery of the horse, which Mr.
Brown will recover. .Attached to the horse,when
Mr. Abbott found him tied to his gate, was a
light buggy and a set of harness, which dre now
at the tiampson House, in Broad street, awaiting
the owners.
Debating Societies.
oThe young men in country towns are, now
beginning to come together for the purpose
of arguing whether L►fayette or Washington
Is moat to be commended; whether the hope
of reward or the fear of punishment- IL - the
most potent• influence, and other import:tint
questions of a similar character.
Many of our public men have gained their
best training for public speaking in lyceums:
and these should by all means be, encouraged.
But there is one usual characteristic of them
which might be charged for the better. It
neither makes philosophers nor ,candid men
out of young persons, to place them on one
side of a question and require them to argue
that side stricly without regard to their ofvn
convictions or to the facts of history or expe
rience. Let the name "debating soeiety" be
dropped; let the idea of debate be discarded,
and let discussion take its place. Debate
sometimes develops partisanship, falsehood,
subterfuge and personalities. Discussion de
velops argument, analysis, love for truth and
balance of judgment. Let, therefore, the
question or the subject be proposed, and let
each-man spealr his own convictions upon it.
There will be sufficientdifference of opinion
on any subject in any club, and the speakers
who differ should alternate, to give spirit to
the discussion; but it should be the object of.
each, not to get the advantage of his oppti- -
nent, but to find out the truth. The world le
sufficiently divided about questions of religion
and questions of public policy, or if these are
excludes—as it is very proper that they should
,ba in a purely social gathering—about ques -
tions of science, of art, of metaphysics and
history, to give enough variety of sentiment
and opportunity tor debate. One who be
lieves what he says speaks earnestly, and is
ULLintir-PRILADELPHIA.
not apt to indulge in mere words devoid of
thought. Many of our debating societies, as
now conducted, give simply an education in
false speaking, bigotry and unscrupulous par-
There is an idea abroad' that this practice
- makes good 'lawyers and good politicians.
Even that is, a mistake., The most effective
lawyer with .a Jury is he who is - evidently can
did, and who, instead of trying to make the
best of the bad aspects of his case, glossing
them over with falsehoods, and belittling the
just claims of the other side, lesiva these un
noticed, and devotes himself to the real me
rits of his own: - case and to the evident de
fects in that of the opposite party. :
The most effective political speaker is he
who candidly admits that which is creditable
to his opponents, and who evidently aims,
conscientiously, from /1113 own standpoint to
search out and to point out,to others that
course which, in his opinion, is really for the
best. The issues of our political'contests are
of too momentous a nature to be treated by
any speaker frivolously, as though they were
the questions of a debating club. - Young
men, then, should devote themselves to dis
cussion rather than to_ debate, and try to get
at the truth in all things. They will flnd this
quite as efficacious-in — whetting - their= Intel - - -
leas, and much more - likely to make useful
men of them, than, inventing sophistries and
indulging in the tricks of disputatious lawyers
and petty wrangleri. , ' -

A California corre!ipondent, who, on his
- wayfrom - Bliti"Francisco to Nevada,arrived in
Sacramento'on the evening; ot the late Presi
dential election, gives the following amusing
account of his recePtion:
The scene on the city front, when we ar
rivedrbeggars !description:The entire - male
population of the town appeared to be con
gregated on Second street, around the stage,
express and telegraph offices, and all . stark
mad - with excitement As I got -down from
the: coach, a ~ etalwart youth.of about forty
eummeas, with rum nose and watery eye,
rushed up to me, and Seizing me eagerly r hy
the collari`exclaimed—"Well, Walter, have
we got 'em?"
"Not a doubt of it, my friend !" was my
proinpt,rePlY.
"Whoop! whooray! Bill, we've got 'em!"
he_yelled, and in an instant "more >I saw - him
hugging - a dilapidated looking :Pike,-whose
hat was a perfect ventilator, , while the two
waltzed round and round on the:' sidewalk,
singing, "And we'll all get blind drunk when
Johnny comes marching which I have
no reason to doubt they Will. ,
I started for the door of the hotel as' soon
as No. i let go of me, but was seized before I
had got two steps by a man with store clothes
on his back and the stare of inciplentinsanity
in his eyes, who demanded, eternly--"Hccee
we got 'em ?"
I looked him in the eye as calmly as I could
and told him that I did not think he had 'em
yet, but was in a fair way to have t ech if he
kept en.
"Hooray, Grant's ahead! Where's your
Seemer and Blar men, now?" he shouted, as
he darted off.
No. 8 had hold of me in another second.
"Do you think we've got 'em?" he de-
Yes got 'em bath' I replied, fori_waa_be-_
ginning to think I had landed among a com
munity of lunatics.
"Then we'll rally round the flag; , boys,
rally once again," he sang, and commenced
dancing the grand rigadoon, with Jim Crow
variations on the sidewalk, winking diaboli
cally at me every time he swung around.
I made a desperate bolt for the door, but
was caught a fourth time and pulled towards
the entrance of the saloon. 'Take a'drink,
stranger," said my captor, who proved to be
No. 1. "Here, you black republican,-cQme
up and take a drink with us," he shouted':
as my interlocutor No. 2 hove in sight again.
No. 2 came up, and N 0.3 joined us,and we
all took a drink.
Just as No. I set down his glass he said,
"So you are sure we've got 'em, are you?"
"You bet," Was my unhesitating reply:
"I have bet all I had on earth," he said.
"Why, you said, we got 'em," said No. 2,
with astonishment not unmixed with sus-
pleion of having been' played depicted on his
countenance.
"Well, so you have got 'em—all got 'epa—
got 'em worse than anyerowd I ever saw be
fore in my life," I exclaimed.
Would you believe it, Nos. 1, 2 and 3 corn
menced cursing in chorus like so many Mexi-
can bandits,and denouncing me as a bilk and
a swindler ?
"Blast Lim, let's duck him," said No. 2. '
"Yes, but let him pay for the drinks first,"
said No. 1.
"That's the talk," said No. 3,emphatically.
I paid for the drinks as meekly as a child,'
and seizing my carpet-bag beat a masterly
retreat, neuer stopping until "reached the \cor
ner of J and Seventh streets, and got inside a.
room at the Capitol Hotel, locked the doer,
and placed all the movable furniture in the
room against it.
I am perfectly sure that whatever may have
been the issue of the election in California,
the entire population of Sacramento had 'em
that night, sad had 'em bad. Talk of San
Francisco earthquakes! They are trifling
affairs compared with an election betting ex
citement in Sacramento. '

According to the opinion of the members of the Pule
Academy of Aft dicine, this article is superior to all the
ferruginous preparations known. It agrees beet with the
stomach, never causes costiveness; It contains the ale.
meats of the blood and the osseous frame. and succeeds
where other preparations fail, such as Vallet's pHs iron
reduced by hydrogen. lactate of iron. and ferrunous
mineral water. One tablespoonful of the solution or
syrup contains three grains of salt of iron. They are both
colorless.
