It would be false delicacy, therefore, to ignore him any longer.

The *whole affair shows that satirists have SO much dislike to, Ire "eatirised as 'bonnie; the hangman,- in “Barnaby.lindge ?' bad to be ing `;‘ worked off." Mr. THACKiItAY will now admit the - doCifine 21 - retribntion. Twenty three years ago, when writing in Fraaer's Ma gazine, Charles Yellowplash," he com mented very saucily upon Ik. Leaman, Bun wen, and others, rldiCuling their manners and personal appearance: Elaborately caricatur ing the iress;the pronunciation, and the man, tiers of 6c , Mister'Litting-Brdwig," he raised the laugh against tie present Colonial Secre tary of England, and - confessed, in a preface to his works, when collected and republished, five years -ago, by the APPLIMONS, of New York, that at the time of his thus ridiculing Burman, he had nel;er even seen him! The difference, then, between Emir= Taxes and Charles Yellowpiush would ' teem, to be that 'raves described a mai' Whom* he was in the habit of meeting frequently, while Yellow plush elaborated a ridiculing description of a man whom he had neifir. met. How much Is there to choose between the-young writer and the old ' Judge Douglas and the Germans. Judge Poulos was waited upon recently, ht. Ohicagoi by a large deputation of the Germans of that city, and in response to the address of their spokesman ho made the following among other remerhe: I am obliged to you for your kind allusion to my effortsto strike down that proscriptive policy. which attempted, a few years ago, to invade the velal. civil, and religious freedom of this country. / made the' first epeech ever pronounced on the American Continent against that proscriptive system which proposed to strike men down on account of their birthplace or their religion. tlmmenee enthualasm.] Of all the note of toils*- tioe ever attempted to be perpetrated, the greatest was to Make the birthplace or the religious creed a political_ test in the eXerelee of the elective franchise. [Oheers] • ' I hold that this Government was eetabliehed by the white men of the continent L-men of European birth or European doeoent then on the continent. It was established for the benefit of white mop, to be administered by white men, pn the white basis. Spain and France, in their colonies' mule Ameri can continent, admitted the negro and Indian to citizenship with the white man, on an equality. In the colonise from which this nation sprung, the political rights were confined to the white men ; not merely to Englishmen, or Germans, or Swedes, or Swiss, but to all white men, all men of Euro pean birth and posterity: Say what, you please, the experience of the .world proves that there is such a thing as superior and leerier races The experience of the world in all ages proves that the negro is incapable of self-government in all olimee. [Cheers.

The Washington Valves reoant diatribes against Douglas and thoDemocraoy of Illinois are tbne commented on by Its ally, the New York Herald : Our Washington philosopher says that they will do mewl thing; but 'wean not sure of that. According to our past experience with those tur bulent Kansas people, a new °barter is the very next thing to which they will proceed after rloset ing the L at eoompton Constitution. And sup 86 they dot is, and ark, th e next session of en gross, to be admitted under the-sante "Emotion of population .which would have heed sufficient for their adatiesion, under .Lecompton, what then? Ie ft not 4*j:to perceive as the light of the noonday sun, that their - rejection will reopen the whole of this _Kansas agitation' throughout the North with tenfold increased bitterness; and other that, on the hand, a quiet aot of admission will settla the whOle boatman at once and forever, and leave to neither Northern nor Southern agita tors' a Single peg to Stand upon. ' ' Why, then, this sudden indignation of our Wash ,ington ontemporary against Mr. Douglas upon this poiat? It strikes us that this trumped-up indict ment eonterwisig a stew Constitution for Kan sas is too shallots and mtsehievons in its tenden cies, and Somewhat too tleiOUS and malignant in its spirit, to be ooneiderod for a moment as representing either the views or wishes of the Ad ministration. Should the -people of Kansas reject the Lecompton Constitution and forthwith adopt another one, republican in form, and lay it before Congress in December next andmsk to be admit ted under It as a State, we ' believe that the Presi dent instead ofresisting, will en c ourage the act of admission as the simpleet, shortest, and moat do &sive way of getting rid of this Kansas nuisance, finally, eompletoly, and forever. Can it be that the Union has lugged in this particular question by the ears for the purpose of embarrassing and defeating Mr. Douglas in Illi nois? We can hardly believe it ; and yet it fol lows that, as the Union denounces , Mr. Douglas se an outsider, It can have undutiful for his 11110. COOL But why' desire his defeat?

Attempt not to crush him by pulling the Demooratio home down over his head, but rather encourage him against the black Re publicans, and homey save the State to the patty, and thus practically initiate the great work of Democratic reunion throughout the 'Union.

The Organs by the Ears. BY MIDNIGHT MAIL. LETTER ,11%0,1i; , i 060AillOrVal." (Correspondence 'of Tlits±Prese.l' ' , . ,• : •-, ;,, -WARISINGTON, Ang. 4, MS I have taken some . pains to inquire into the probs• ble result of the eitraoidluaryeanipaign in Illinois. Naturally enough r the news will come moat direct t) this central point; and as my information comes from 'several sources, friendly and other wise, it may be relied upon. The struggle is fierce; but there are certain reasons, apart from the enthu siasm now existing, which lead me to the conclusion that Douglas will arty the State. First among these is the fact that Mr. Lincoln 'cannot damage his opponent's platfOrm,With the vote of the Republi cans and Americans recorded in favor of it in - the last Congress. This vote, added to the manly and disinterested attitude of Douglas, has sunk deep into the hearts of the Republican and American manes. Renee, p it is a common thing to hear of many of these men - advoo sting Douglas Nor Mtn' the Administration whip in all the office-holders. I have now before me a letter from en Illinois Ipostmaster, in which he declares that it is 'a libel that• these men are against Douglas In a body. " Bonds and death," as ;wise Black has it, can- . not tame the honest Spirit, or frighten "a' man's conscience out of his body. Another reason that helps Douglas is the feeling in his fiver outside of Ms own State. lowa, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, Minnesota are in a bla;e for him. I spent arthour, the other day, looking over several files of Northwestern papers, at an absent Senator's quarters, and I find that poug las has got them for.. him, with very. few exceptions. , The Leoompton ,papers in Indiana are compelled to publish his speeches, while the leading Democratic journals in Milwaukee, St. Paul, Cleveland, Detroit, Pabusiue, ardently exit path* with him. This creates an Innosphere that still, further inspires the inside movement; and when to this is added the announced sympa thy with him of the St. Leafs Republican, Senator J S. erects, of Missouri, and thousands of Admin istration Alen, In Missend, he would seem to be hard to defeat, - touch less to . drive out of, the Democratic party. On Friday,. the 80,th ult., .an election for alderman took place In the Second, ward, Chicago, which ward gave Fremont over 400 majority; and- the _result Was that Smith•hteClery, the Douglas candidate, was chosen by-130 majority. In order to intimidate oertain gentlemen in *Chicago, by holding over their heads the official lash, a number of names were affixed to the call for a LooomPton meeting lately held in that city. The Union here shouted over the proceedings with infinite gusto. But the sequel wasp sad damage. A. large number of the Democrats, whose names wore used, came out and repudiated the meeting, and endorsed Douglas. Mr. David Stuart, for some years the able Repro [tentative DI Congress from Detroit, (while yon were Clerk of the Doom) and lately a resident of Chicago, put his views down as follows: "Not one at all familiar with the politics of II- Snots can for a pnonient doubt that the defeat of Senator Douglas involves the election of a Repub. Roan trimester ; and my. instincts of pemooraey prompt me to beat a hasty retreat from any snare which might betray mo into so fatal an imagist onoy and error, or subject me to the suspicion of suoh an' unholy alliance.' " . Many others did likewise. But, what is most ourimis of all le, to see the feeling exoited in the Southern States in favor of Douglas. Ilor ror olthe °ours° that is being pursued against him, contempt for the low and abandoned frosorip den of a set of paid hirelings, and, in many oases, .earnest sympathy in his movement, have elicited a number of declarations in his behalf. The Mem phis Apr 1.41,110418 Tribune, New Orleans il el ta Tilehprud Rnqurrer, Vicksburg True Southron: object to the course of the Administration, and ap prove of most of the sentiments of the intrepid Senator. From these hints you may obtain a fair bird's eye view'of the field. Really it is a grand struggle. It appeals to all our chivalric and ge nerous feelings. It is a spectacle to be remember ed; and I am not astonished that it awakens such intense feeling all over the country. The Washington Union is in a sad dilemma. 1 It has announced Its purpose, after the English bribe le defeated in Kansas, to be about as foi -1 lowa : "Should the Lecompton Covetitution be reject ed, they will remain as a Territory until they have a sufficient population to become &State under , the English bill." I This is a bard measure to such men as Flerenoe, Phillips, Landy, and the Joneses, and may be called the " teet " upon them. If they say that they will vote for the Constitution which the pee pie of Itansaimay bring to Washington next ses sion, without the ratio, they are outside of the party ; if they do not salt it, they will not even fet Lecompton votes. Will the Union change about, and accept themrinciple, and yield to the. I voice of the people? or will it keep the issue open, while avorring that it Is " settled ? " This le a di lemma indeed. The ultra Republicans of Illinois have taken violent ground against the attempt to assist .the ' manufacturers of iron In Pennsylvania. - ( The Smothers elections have gone, as was ex -1 pected, generally for the Democratic ticket. The New York Herald of Monday contains another ti;ng at Mr. Secretary Cobb because he Iwill not confirm Mr. SobetPkappointments. This , is a matter in which I have no concern, save to ' say that it looks very much as If Schell had set the Herald upon Cobb in order to got the Presi dent to interfere in his behalf. So it is under stood here. Whether it will induce the Secretary I to yield remains to be been. I have, I believe, never yet alluded to the mag nificent marble bust of Pulaski, executed by your townsmen and highly educated artist, Sanders, I (a Polish citisen,) and now on exhibition at the ICapitol. It is a superb work of genius. No appro. priation has been made for It. Why does not Ha: I vannah, so identified with the name of Pulaski, buy it for hereon'? I have often asked myself this question 'while observing this impressive figure 1 There is no city in the Union that would be more benefited by a hose° railroad than Washington. The extortion of hack•drivers upon persons having business in the departments is terrible. A bill was reported to Congress last session to authorise the laying of rails on Pennsylvania Avenue for this purpose. Bat it failed because the speculators (everything is a job hero) got into a quarrel. Next session it will go through without difficulty. Such a connection between the Capitol and the White Rouse and the Departments, would be an incaloulable benefit to the people. As I predicted, James P. Barr, the deserving editor of the only daily Democratic paper in Western Pennsylvania, (the Pittsburgh Post,) has failed to be appointed postmaster of Pittsburgh, though backed by nine-tenths of the entire people of the place. Mr. J. C. Dunn obtains the prize. The most earnest appeals were vainly made in Barr's behalf. OCCASIONAL. A Word from Sussex Colinty, N. J.

Weary of the business of the work-day world— tired of books, and longing for Lotus and for the dreamless sloop Tennyson so sweetly singe—l took the railroad car at the Camden and Amboy depot, New Jersey side, and made a break for the " high old hills " of Sussex. On reaching Newark we found the Morrie and Essex train waiting, in which we go as far as Waterloo, from whence a brenobl road tuna to Newton,.tho ouuntk-seat of Sussex ; and if any of your city readers want to breathe cool air and forget the dog days, here is the place for them. From the hills around the town, you can see the line of division between Jersey and New York. Aud in the valleys flow the small mountain brooks, which ISO much delight the heart of the disciples of baak Walton, the rare and quaint old angler. At dinner. today, one of the guests at the Cochran House—by the way, one of the best places in the world to take " mine ease at mine inn"—was do. tailing his success in 'treating at Double Dam, it few miles from Newton. He and his companich naught fifty-five trout in a single afternoon. They used nothing but live bait. One of the trout weighed seven pounds. Double Dam, which abounds in plOkerel as well as trout, is a deep pond, formed by throwing a aubstantial dam over a mountain stream, whose water is clear and cold. Newton is the hems of Martin V. Ryerson, one of the judges of the Supremo Court. He, at one time, when practising at the bar, was the idol of the Demooraoy of Eames, and, in fact, holds yet a high and honorable place in the affections of the people, But years ago, he went to practice in Trenton, and for many years has withdrawn ,from the active strife of politics, 'When he was a leader of tho faithful, Buena was the banner county of NeW Jersey, and used to give majorities as high as two thousand for the Demooraoy. Martin V. Ryerson is to the core an anti-Lecoropton Democrat, and he is not without hosts of companions. It was, you will remember, in this county that the first meeting in opposition to that great fraud and shame, the oandle•box Constitution, was held in New Jamey. And to that meeting Governor Walker addressed that eloquent, and truthful, and soothing letter, inquiring pertinently, i;hether this was the eighty-second year of our indepen dence, or the first year of the American monarchy. Among the leaders of the anti,Lecompton tomes hero aro Thomas N. McCarter, a prominent and popular young lawyer, and Morris Hamilton, editor of the Sussex Ilsratd.

[From the West Cheater Village Recent.] The report, upon the subject of certain new banks, recently made by a committee of the Le gialature, has developed a systematic scheme of swindling which should open the eyes of the peo ple of Pennsylvania to the evils of the present banklog system. It appears that, in 1857, a number of new banks were applied for, in various parts of the State, and the most pressing importunities made to the Legis lature, under pretence that capital sought invest ment, and the businosa wants of the people ren dered them indispensable. These appeals, always difficult to resist, became irresistible when so many banks were simultaneously solicited by men who did not sort:mil) at anything to accomplish their ends. A union of hands, and a system of "log rolling," forced through the Legislature all the banks that were asked tor. Tho report of the legislative committee exhi bits the result. The Bank o Crawford County, of Tioga, of Shamokin, of Hollidaysburg, not .do mended by the wants of the people, were seised hold of by a lot of unprincipled eptonlators nt Buffalo, New York, who had the audacity to come into the State of Pennsylvania, where they bad nn business, and no residence, and attempt to palm off a seheme by whioh thousands of innocent peo ple might have been involved in ruin ! Beginning their operations by investing a few thousand dollars in the stook of the Tioga County Sank, they obtained a large amount of ito notes, and next, by means of these notes, which the bank was utterly unable to redeem, thought to obtain possession of the capital stook of all the other new banks, thereby making the few thou. sand dollars they bed originally invested in the Tioga Bank, the foundation for a banking capital of half a million of dollare, and of a note °koala tion of more than a million of dollars ! Such wore the proportions of this mammoth swindle! One more audacious was never eon• oeived. Had" it not been exposed it would hove covered our State with irredeemable bank rage, and Jed to an explosion which would have ruined thousands. At the time these applioations were made, we warned the Legislature against the dangers of a system whioh was liable to mob abuse. What we said then may not have been very palatable in some quarters; but experience has proved our fears not to have been unfounded, sooner than we expected.

The Kirkpatrick Poisoning Case. (Reported for The Preee.2 Quetrratt SESSIONS—Judge Allison —Mr. F. H. Brewster concluded his - very able argument for the defendants, Robert B. Kirkpatrick and wife, about eleven o'clock yesterday morning. He was followed by Mr. ilaslehurst, of counsel for Josiah Jones, who was very °audio on the prosecutor, and the motives by which he was actuated. Judge Kelley 'concluded for the prosecution, and the charge will be made by Judge Allison this morning. U. S. Comurssiortaa's Orricm.—A man named Hyman, the keeper of a tavern in Third street, was charged before Commissioner Buchard with passing counterfeit money. The principal testi mony against him was that of his bar-keeper, who had been recently discharged by him, and whose evidence, under the circumstances, must be taken with several grains of allowance. He testified that the defendant had placed counterfeit gold coin in the drawer, and told him to pay it away in &sane, He admitted, on crosaexaminatlon, that he had brought the prosecution through spite. Continued until Friday for a further hear ing. QUARTER SESSIONS—Judge Ludlow.—Bacid Ho gan was put on trial, charged with burglary, at the house of Ambrose Taylor, in the Seventeenth ward, and robbing It of jewelry, wearing apparel, dm, to the value of $BO. The character of the witnesses for the prosecution was not such as to inspire the jury with much confidence in their tes timony. This case occupied the 'court nearly all day. Jury out.

As already announced by telegraph, the Falls City buret a cylinder head, 35 miles below Mem phis, a few days since, and but for a large lee box which was standing between the oylindor and the boilers the result would have been much more dis astrous. The accident occurred near Austln,while the passengers were at dinner, who numbered about three hundred, and produced the greatest consternation. They all rushed out, and ono of our informants states that it required all his strength to prevent hie being pushed overboard. One man fell to the lower deck, but escaped with a sprained ankle. There were four of tho crew blown overboard, of whom three were drowned; one, a little boy, who was employed in the cook house, was saved, but be died subsequently. Besides. seven of the orew were scalded, two of whom could not survive. The little boy swam nearly half a mile, when the steamboat Langley_ came up, and a rope was H thrown to him. e caught hold of it with his hands, but they were so badly scalded that ho could not use them, and be put the repo in his mouth, and was thus rescued. The passengers raised a subscription for him. Ile endured die sufferings without a murmur, and died before the boat reached Memphis. The Falls City then came up on ono wheel. Nearly all her patoeigers left her at Memphis and came to Cairo on the Fanny Bullitt. The Falls City blew out her nuk ing when a short distance above Natchez, but no one was injured by it. A letter from Vienna says " During the last few days a great diamond, the-property of some strangers at Laibaoh, in Candela, has been much talked of hero. The travellers asked 3,000,000 fl. (£300,000) for their jewel, but the po lice must have heard something to their disad vantage, u it has had them arrested and brought to this city. The nationality of the possessor of the Stone is not known to me, but his two travel• ling companions are from Franco." We learn that Col. IL I. Hart, of this city, has discovered a valuable sulphur spring at At lantio City, N. J.

'The - rktiandance consisted of nine `persons. A uommanication was received from the Patent Office, et Washington accompanied by eateries of Tneesny wheat for datributioa among the mem bore. The seoretary announced that the seeds received at the' riieViOiis meeting, from tile same nottree, had already been Alyea to members for experi ment. - A. circular from the . trustees of the :Feet snare' High School was itotit read. It requesta the soolity le' send delegates to,an election .to be held on•the let •of September , next to fill wenn cies in that body. The election la - to, be.deter mined by the votes of the members of the man tire committees of the Pentsylvanis State Agri cultural Society, and the votes of three reireaen- . tatives, duly chosen by each County Agricultural Soolety in the Commonwealth,' which ellen have been organised at least three months preceding the time of suoh election. The object of asking delegates from the county societies is, that they may be informed' and enabled to report 6.their respective sooleties the progress width is being I made by the institution, tied the ialite which it promises to yield to the agriculturists of the State. Delegates will be taken from the month of Spruce oreok, on the Pennsylvania Railroad, on Wednes day morning, September lat. Tho President appointed three delegates so cordingly—Mesars. Morton McMichael, J. B. Int gersoll, and John McGowan. At the request of the President for additional volunteers, Messrs. Landreth, Harrison, and George Blight tendered themselves, and were accepted. Messrs. Henry A. Dreer, Josiah M. Smith, Wm. L. Boyer, and J. B. Hopper were then elected members of the society. - An interesting debate next took place iq rela tion to the merits of the dosen or meter/1811valve reaping machines now before the public, no two 'persons agreeing upon which was entitled to pre ference. The fact appeared to be, as one member rather facetiously remarked, that most people con sidered that to be the beet tniokine which was made in their own neighborhood. Having concluded the disoussion, which was ir regular and desultiiry; the secretary called at*. tion to the foot that a steam-plough had been put in operation in Lancaster county by Mr. Flogkes, of Christiana. He said that In England the steam plough had already been successfully introduced. .They were taken through the agricultural districts by their owners, who ploughed UP farms by con tract, at the price of seven 'shillings sterling per acre, the capacity of the machine being an sore and a quarter per hour. The plough is the inven tion of Beide% The plough invented Mr. Fawkes ie aa Improvement niou this, It heti shone merely to guide it, the weight cornea entirely upon the centre wheels, which are su rre'unded by a resol ving track. The track is affixed to the wheel and re- eaves the weight, and is so admirably arranged, that even upon wet ground it scereely leaves an impression. Lancaster County has the honor of giving us the first Inventor of the: steamboat, and also the first steam plough. The machine was tried last week in Lancaster county, and was rep resented to have been highly successful. He was glad to see that the subject Was attracting atten tion, and hoped that the society would take some means to bring it before them.. It is euperior to the Holdall machine in main respeets. It requires but one man, is six feet wide, and drives elk plotighl at once. The attendant stands upon tie'plorigb while in motion: The Inventor is an entliusiast who, to complete the inventton,has denied himself every thing; and has not now sufficient means to bring it to Philadelphia for exhibition. The. secretary thought it was the duty of the society to mooning" such an invention, and that the society invite Mr. Fawkes to bring is machine to this city, and give it a public trial, the society paying his expenies by private contribution among the members. Mr. Elwyn moved that the society anthorize'the secretary to write such an invitatioh; which, after considerable debate, was agreed to. After some other bueineas, not of public interest, the meeting adjourned. Pciou Hosea Fratert..:— The inhumanity whiob is so frequently practised towards that no ble animal, the horse, is almost daily a subject of severe and just censure. Yesterday and Turfs* we eaw instances of the kind, whiob, although by no means rare, attraoted large crowds of both ac tive and listless spectators. The first was on Mar ket street, where one of the horses attached to a passenger oar fell, overcome by 'exhaustion and heat; and yesterday morning, on Chestnut street, a poor animal, attached to a• mineral wagon, una ble longer to navigate under its load, bad to sue• comb to exhausted nature, notwithstanding the driver's whip was most vigorously plied to strength en him. Various expedients were resorted to for the purpose of coaxing him into an upright posi tion, and the wagon finally backed from him and straw brought to render more comfortable his re clining position. The poor horse's appreciation of this kindness was manifested by an immediate ef fort to eat the straw—an evidence scarce necessary to convince by-standers that hie lank and meagre frame was seldom treated to half the quantum of oats and hay to sustain even tolerably vigorous life. The universal expression was, that it is a sin to subject to the torture of severe labor such mise rable, starved, yet ever-willing and noble crea ture!. . THE OPRNING TRADX.—We are already beginning to hive indieations, of a brisk fall trade. The arrivals in our city are on the in crease, notwithstanding the oppressivenesspf the summer heat ham mane lost its dread, even to bu. siness men. We have recently conversed with Southern merchants, who assured. us they were generally expected to have their goods on the stand by the last of August. ,Many of these are arriving, and their purehases being made; and by the time of their departure, Western merchants, and those of our own State, will begin to pour in. We have reason to anticipate a prosperone season, notwithstanding the cry is that the country has not recovered from the erects of the resent panto. An abundant harvest, coupled with the lemons of pradenee, leaned in the bitter school of expe rience, will, we feel an abiding faith, dispel every cloud widish bangs over the commercial, manufac turing and general business interests of th'e coun try. DAM° INOHNDIART ATTEISPT.—A pretty well-grown boy was discovered, about one o'clock yesterday, ia the attempt to commit la most daring acis of incendiarism. Ile had a bundle of straw at tubed to a pole, and, after breaking the transom window of an unoccupied building at theittentheast corner of Front and Christian streeti; was in the act of thrusting it in when disooiered,:•-Foitt nately, a policeman came up . at thisjuneture, when the boy took to his heels, and succeeded In eluding the grasp of the offcer, although hotly pursued. Sergeant Godwin, of the police,-climbed up to the transom, and suoceeded in. obtaining thecombusti ble material. The baildingcontained the furniture and fixtures of a business stand, and was admirably I adapted to a successful incendiary attempt. WUAT a pity it is that policenion are not only Argus-eyed, bat blessed with the powers of übiquity: So many things transpire : in the crib- I nary occurrences of city life, requiring their oog nizanoe, but which it is impossible they can be fully posted upon, that we sometimes wish them' was a police officer at every.eornes, look, and cranny. We saw, last evening, several individu als who had rather too freely imbibed of the " ar dent," and who were decidedly boisterous, irate- , cent, and outrageous, whe would have been mate rially benefited by a few hours' reformatory dis cipline, under the care of our city authorities. DANGEROUS COUNTERFEIT.—The most dan gerous counterfeit we have yet seen was shown us yesterday morning. It was a two-dollar-and.a-balf gold piece, so closely resembling the genuine that It is calculated to deceive even good judges of coin. The general appearance of it is very good ; the weight and eireumferenee of it are coned, and its only apparent defect is that of Its sound, end being too thin, which can be easily discovered by sub- jetting it to the standard tests. We have reason to believe that many of them are In circulation, and that oven professional money-changers have been deceived by their Appearanoe. LARCENY ('P A littio--A man named John Randolph was arrested yesterday and committed by Alderman Freeman, charged with the larceny of a gold signet ring, from the jewelry establish ment of E. Emanuel, corner of Seventh and Chest nut streets. In company with two others, Ran dolph entered the store, with the profeAed pur• pose of making some purchases, and whilst inspect ing the goods, the theft was B ooomplished. The accomplices of Randolph toodeeded in getting off' with the booty, leaving tam to bear the brunt of the offence. limos PRAYER MnErwas.—The daily praye r meetings at Joyne's Hall continue with unabated interest. Wedropped in yesterday, and were gra tified to witness the fervent, yet quiet, pious seal wbioh characterized the proceedings. It is a glo rious feature of our city—so central a point, where the stranger, or business visher, may spend an hour in communion with his Maker, unfettered by artificial and fashionable trammels, in common with his brethren of all creeds. CORRECTION.—In our notice yesterday of the "arrest of an alleged murderer," we gave the credit of the arrest to Officer Fleming. It should have been Officer Miller, of the Fifth ward. In pence may, be frequently done to our officials, through mere inadvertenoe, - but we are always cheerfully willing• to make the necessary mine°. Bons, and bestow either praise or censure where they are due.
