MATTERS AND THINGSj IN NEW YORK.

i Elder Hyde, the Mormon, delivered a lecture >a
the Academy, of Music yesterday, in winch he
expatiated upon His experience in Utah, and sp jl*e
of. Brigham Young’s resemblance to Henry Ward
Beecher , The Herald seems to thiftk that the
Elder is not good'looking as Mrs. John Wood,
or as funny aa- ber hnaband, or os dramatic as
Bouroioault, or as musical as his wife, or as popu
lar . as Mlss Log&h; did not prove so good a card os
either/ahd did not draw a very good house. It
may be that the New York public does not wish to
know 1 anything about Mormotusm, or that it al
ready knows enough, or that it does not approve of
Elder .Hyde’s opposifcian to the Saints. Either
; hypothesis would account for the slim audience,
.though it will hardly reimburse Manager Stuart
-for the rent and gas bUI. He .will therefore be ob
liged to oh&rge to philanthropic profit and loss the
oost of; bis first attempt at Sunday reform preach
ing in the theatre.„ It seems a great pity that so
htunape a' project should fail, because the arm
chairs are so comfortable, and one doesn’t feel half
;so constrained, and cramped and uneasy as in the
high.'backed, stiff, uncnaritable seats of the
churches. ' . ;
There, have been no arrivals at Quarantine of
vessels from infected ports since Thursday. Tho
TruxUlo and Indian Queen were permitted yester
day to come up from the lower Quarantine anchor
age to disoharge their cargoes. Permission has
been given to Hie Groton to come up to-day. The
brig Hilton arrived yesterday at Quarantine from
Jaokmel, via New Haven - She went up to Now
Haven with a view., to evade Quarantine —the re
port ran—but upon second sober thought, concluded
it best to come on to New York before unloading
her cargo, and to save $l,OOO fine for non-conformi
ty to the Quarantine regulations.
A supposed case of yellow fever was taken yes
terday from the brig Express, lying at the lower
quarantine anohorage, and brought to the Marine
Hospital at-upj>er quarantine. The party-died
shortly after being brought to the hospital. It
was afterwards that' the deceased foil
from a spar to tho deck a day or two ago, and tho
fever from which he died was superinduced by this
fall. At the present time there is not a single
case of yellow fever at tho Quarantine Hospital.
. The law concerning the sale of liquor on Sunday
wag more generally observed yesterday than on
any previous Sunday since the law was ordered to
be enforced, owing to the decisive *Bl6OB taken by
the grand jury, with respect to those who violate it.
In the first six wards all the larger places were
closed, and in those which remained open nothing
hut “ temperance drinks” was announced as on
sale. Yet a few of the smaller places, especially
those in the fourth ward, sold openly, and to all
who applied ; others sold only to those known to be
all right,” .while a still larger number in this and
ml'the other wards carried on a back or side-door
business.. In tho seventh ward the police report a
general oloring, and an improved observance
till, one dispoeed, can &b yet get drunk on Sun
day, andean do so without leaving the city, if he
knows the ropes.
' On Saturday quite a seen* occurred at tho Now
York Hotel,gentleman residing in the neighbor*
hood' being 'discovered by a wealthy down-town
merchant on. terms of too great intimacy with his
wife. The offending party mado his escape almost
tn pttris naturolibus , and was taken, by those
who saw him, to be a lunatic." Ho ran pretty fast,
for tho injured husband had a revolver. All the
parties belong to ** onr first sooiety.”
The funeral of Walter S. Jarboe, the Seventh
wdrd policeman who came to his death.under cir
'oumstances so' mysterious, a few days since, took
place yesterday afternoon, from his late rosidonco,
No. 204 Madison street. It was very largely at
tended. The body was interred in Greenwood.
The Roman Catholic church, near Glen Core,
was, yesterday afternoon, dedicated to the service
of God by appropriate religious exorcises. Bishop
McLaughlin preached a disoonißo suitable to the
occasion; ,'
Tho purchase of four lota in the Cemetery at
;.Bergen Point has been direotod by tho Hudson
County Board of Chosen Freeholders for oounty
purposes. The. bodies which are found on the
shore of New York and Newark buys, and of the
Killiß will be interred in these lots when not iden
tified and taken away by their friends,
A book publisher who for about two years car
ried on, business in Broadway, in conneouon with a
western houße, recently made his'disappearance
between sunset 1 and sunrise, leaving quite a num
ber of his brethren of the square and compass in
the larbh to a considerable amount.
On the 11th instant an iron safe in the store of
Messrs: Lamson, Goodnow, & Co., No. 79.Beokman
street, was opened and robbed of $1,600, in bills
on- the Sberbarne EeHs Tbe store ap
peared to have , been broken' into, and the safe
opened with a false, key. Officers Elder and Mo-
Cordj of-the offlc'6 of the Deputy Superintendent of
Police, were notified, and took measures to detect
the thief. On Saturday afternoon they received
information that a five-dpllar bill, of the descrip
tion above given, had been passed at a store in
Broadway; by Robert Lawrence, a clerk in the em
ploy of Messrs. Lamson, Goodnow, A Co.
.. Lawrence was promptly arrested, and at first de
nied ail knowledge of the money, but finally con
fessed that in an evil hour he had opened the safe
with a key whiob had been forsome timo missing,
and abstracted the money. He then conducted
the officers to the top loft of the store, And there
showed them the Whole of the money and $350 be
-rides. He was then token'before' Justice Osborne,
.'and eommitted to await examination. Lawronce
is very respeotebly connected and Well educated.
Ha seems to feel greatly.’distressed on account of
toeeriftr which he has committed and freely con
fesses it. 7 ; .. - ■ , ■ •

The St^Louis Exchange Reporter, of August 12th,
says of money matters in that city j
“ Since the Ist instant money has been in greater de
mand, owing to tho heavy payments which mature from
the Ist to the sth of every month. Private bankers’
rates are 1 to Ig per cent.,and some charge as high as
IX to 2 per month. Exchange on the East is fn de
mand atx premium. Somebankeraareshippingspecie.
Sight exchange on New Orleans scarce, and in demand
at par.' Buying rate on same point for sight X off;
selling at par. No change in regard to time bills since
last review, of any importance. Currency, such as Illi
nois and Wisconsin, plenty and bankers fall. Some of
the Illinois banks, it is reported,are closing up, with a
viowof commencing operations la remote parts of Wis
consin. Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana currency not so
plenty.” ’ ’ J
The St. Louts flepvMtcan aays, In relation to the
movement for putting the notes of Wisconsin hanks on
a new footing, which we noticed some doys since:
“ The whole amount of stocks pledged for tho redemp
tion of the issues of the Wisconsin banks is $3,401,000:
and of this amount no teas than $1,700,000 are bonds of
the State of Missouri. The whole number of banks do
ing business under the general banking law is sixty
eight, with an aggregate capital of $5,140.000. The total
of notes issued to such banks for circulation was, on the
31st ult.. $2,920,360: and the securities pledged for their
redemption were in the aggregate $3,461,000.”
Tho break in the Delaware division of tho Pennsylva
nia Canal reported last week, was remedied by a tempo
rary dam across the canal, below the outlet lock, so that
navigation on the upper end df the canal was resumed
directly, and boats ran by way of the outlet and the De
laware and Baritan Canal to New York and Philadel
phia.
The report of the Board of Directors of the Chesa
peake and Ohio Canal shows tho increase of tolls in 1856
over 1855 to have been $44,785 62, the total receipts be
ing $153,051 80.
The expenses for the year, Including interest, were
$231,716 73. The losses by the spring freshet are esti
mated at $200,000, the expenditure from Ist January to
Ist June, 1857, being set down at $162,322 12.

PHILADELPHIA MARKETS.
The market for Cotton is unchanged, but quiet to-day
at previous quoted prices. In Breadstuffs there is very
little doing, and the sales of Flour are confined to tho
wants of tho home trade, at from $6.60 to $7.60 for some
old stock and fresh ground superfine—the latter for bet
ter brands, and $7.7508.75 and $9 bbl., &j to brand,
including fancy lota at our highest figures. Shipping
Flour is offered at $7.25 for fresh ground parcels mode
from new Wheat, but the demand is exceedingly small.
Rye Flour is rather tower, and a dale of 200 bbls. was
made at $3.87* bbl. Corn meal is unchanged; sales
at $4 bbl. for Penna. Meal. Wheats are plenty and
dull to-day, the bulk of the offerings being of poor
quality and damp, and very unsaleable. Sales 2,000 bus.
only found buyers at 165 c. for prime red, and 160a170c.
for white, with a very choice lot at 160 c. Corn is dull,
with further sales of 2,500 bus. good yellow at 88c., in
sforo and afloat. Oats.—No change in the markot,
with sales of 304,000 bus. to note-at 42044 c. for new
southern—the latter for prime. Bye is selling mode
rately at 95c. Bark is in steady demand at $5O for first
quality Quercitron. Groceries and Provisions exhibit
no material change in the prices or demand of either,
and a very small business, especially in the prime ar
ticles. Whiskey is selling, as wanted, in lota, at 29030 c.
ter bbls., aaA2Se< in hhds.

The Coroner.—Messrs. Editors: Ab there are now
quite a number of aspirants for this Important post, I
would suggest to citizens the propriety of placing In
nomination none but an experienced physician. The
reasons for eo doing are many and obvious. The Coroner
should be able himself to examine the corpse, and skil
ful to detect the cause of death. This would not only
render more certainty in getting at just conclnsions, but
it would save the expense of Airing a doctor to attend
to his duty. Other and cogent reasons will readily pre
sent themselves to the thinking man, why the post of
Coroner should be filled only by a competent medical
mau; and in this connection I mune for that position
our energetic and talonted townsman, Dr. F. Mieraon,
of the Fifth ward, who, it wiU be remembered by our
citizens, volunteered his services, and did gocgl service
in the cause of humanity, when the yellow fever was
desolating our sister cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth,
Vh. To enlarged medical knowledge the doctor adds an
indomitable will and onergy that would render him a
trnly valuable officer. We hope our Democratic citizens
will show their appreciation of real merit by adopting
him as their candidate, and electing him by a triumphant
majority atthe ensuing election. [lt*] PniLoe.,

Res. both of duties and friendship. Therefore,
Resolved, That we sincerely sympathize with Mb
bereaved family in the affliction which has fallen upon
them, and we unite in this expression of our regard
from having known how well their deceased relative
discharged every public and moral duty.
Resolved, That in the death of Ur. Samuel Cook, the
Government haz lost a true and tried servant, who, fora
period of forty years, discharged with fidelity every duty
imposed upon him; while we have been deprived of oue
on whoso judgment, knowledge, and advice wo have
sever relied In vain.
Resolved, That a copy of the resolutions be presented
to the family of tho lamented deceased.
On motion of Mr. John P. Colcord. it was
Resolved, That the carriers, clerks, and employees
not on duty, attend tho funeral in a body.
