Everybody, throughout the country, who has any oontrivAnco, who has invoated a machine, or !s inte rested in a patent, reads what is going on amon& the ex* hlbltors at the late Crystal Palace. The inventors, the manufacturers, the men who raise excessive pumpkins, big ears of oom and fat porkers, must have some place where those things can be exhibited; and the lato con* flsgration having deprived them of such a place, atten tion is, naturally direot»d to the means of procuring another.. For. this purpose .some fire, hundred persons met 'at the Cooper Institute on Tuesday evening, to take the incipient steps towards opening a Union for the exhibition of specimens of art, science, &o. Late as' it U for the starting of another exhibition, it is not too late, as the first fair of the Tnst : tate ever held in New Tork was held in November. The Bev. Dr. Cha pin, who was one of the speakers, in the Course of bis remarks, which were warmly applauded, aa’d: u lt was just one year to-momw since the financial crlsl* oocurrod, but now they hare got over that. Let this Institution, thrn;'be restored; >they knew it could be coopered up. [Applause. 1 They had got the gospel, and be wished them to make it a book of acts. [Applause.] Let the people get interested, then, and that Pbceolx spirit would be seen which rises from itj ashes in new forms of utility and strength.” ; The. .following resolution was then unanimously adopted: .

Within the last two week's there have been landed, on onr wharves 825/00 barrels floor, 258,000 bushels, wheat, 685,000 bushels' corn, 260,000 bushels barley, 3.000 barrels beef, 9,000 barrels pork, 80,000 packaged cheese, 14.000 pack ages butter, and other things in proportion.

There was great glee at the City Hall yesterday morning, growing out of the sale of the portraits be longing to the mnoiolpaity. The counterfeit pre sentments of governors, warriors—land and marine mayors, and other venerable muffs, were pnt in one treated with as little ceremony as were the portraits of the Surface family by that fast young spe cimen of his day, Charles Snrface. With the exception of a few portraits by 1 Elliott, InmAn, and two or three other good artists, the whole assortment, If put up at pnbllo sale at Williams & Btevsns’ picture-gallery, would not have bronghi five thousand dollars; bat Lbwber stuck "to theoity ((like a puppy to a root,” and was determined be would have the hiatoricals—the city heir-looms—nnloss the au thorities planked np.

Yesterday ru an annirersary that will not soon pats pat of the public memory. Twelve months ago, the banks of this city suspended specie payments, having in their vaults less then $0,000,000.

Mr. Neal asked for theyepnrt of the Committee on Law,for the modification of the ordinances, the present beiof the time fixed for its reception. M?. Ouyler sshed -for a report from the Committee on Retrenchment and Reform, of which Mr. Nesl is chair ran. Mr Nesl reapondedthat the opposition party h*d not intarested themselves in the matter ss much as ho ex* pictsd tboy would have done, and it was thoreforo doubtful whether it was expedient to report. Mr Cornman said that the report of the Committee oo Retrenchment and Reform htd been referred to tbs paople, and that they reported at the polls ou Toes dgrlast. Mr. Leidy read a bill for the appointment or two com* naJislofibrs to prepare a municipal code for the govern*' mtnt of the city The bill was ordqyod to be printed, aid made tho order of the day two'weeks henod, The ordinance making an additional appropriation to tye Guardians of the Poor, for expense* of that depart irefit* of $17,695, for the balance of 185 S, was taken up cb motion of Mr. Neal, and debated at great length In considering the item of $3OO for whiskey for the Kck; Mr. Beideman moved to amend by substituting sif6i In doing so, ho said that the deficiency to be made up In the appropriation existed on tbe Ist of duly, ind this amount he thought ample. Mr. Neal was of the same opinion, as even $175 worth of whiskey was a good deal for sick people to iriuk. Wh'skey could bo purchased for 75 cents per gallon, which would make 70 gallons of whisky to bo in s'ckness. ’■ The amendment was lost when put to vote, and the original amount, $3OO, was retained A motion was made to strike out from the first sec tion of the ordinance, the words “caused by the losnf* flcleocy of the annual appropriation,” which follow the words, “The said appropriation being necessary for ex penses for the balance of the prosent year.’ ’ Agreed to, by a vote of 12 to 8. The bill passed to a second reading, and was laid over. Mr. Schofield offered an ordinance appropriating $l2OO to pay the salaries of 24 vaccine physicians, which was passed. Mr Ouyler moved that the Chamber proceed to the discussion of the bill for the removal of the market* street shanties Mr. Leidy moved a reference to tbe Coraraitteo on Markets. Mr. Onyler stated that Ihe committee, on reporting In favor of the removal of the sheds, had given every opportunity to tbe roroonstranls to explain their objec tions. -Tbe motion to refer was equivalent to an aban donment of tbe project ' y . Mr. Neal expressed himself in a similar manner. Mr. Schofield thought the matter of too mnch Im portance to be despatched at onco, and hoped to see it referred. Mr. Cornminsaid Itwaamanlfestdestiny. Tbe hovels mostcome down, and there was no use in dodging the Juration. The markets rent for $20,090 a year, and a mage the city more than ten times that amount. They are no longer a necessltv, as they onee were, and they ought to be removed. The Chamber should voto to remove them at once. Mr. Neal said that a reference of the matter to the Committee on Markets was absurd. The Committee on Markets wes ono of tho hardest comm'tte®S in the GUam berto be got together. The Committee on Markets hadn’t met for mOqths, and to consign the matter to them wofihMje ad unwise step. Mr. Slice wanted the matter referred. He said that tbe people didn't want the shanties removed, but only . the merchants. He thought the shanties were highly valuable and practical—gfreat conven’enccs to tho peo ple, and admirably situated to meet the wants of the .

Ybon the resolution or Beleot Council requ'rlng such alterations and improvements as would afford a nuMie vi<v of the grave of Franklin and whloh the action of thiVeriryof Christ’s Church had superseded, Mr. Gor dotmado a somewhat- lengthy, eloquent, and snreaa tictly patriotic speech iu opposition to its passage, whith elicited much mirth and hnmorrus comment up«i the part of members. • 710 resolution from Be!eet Council,'lnstructing the Committee on Trnats and Fire Departments to inquire intothe expediency of reducing tho Firo Department, wattoncurred in. Tie resolutions with reference to the paving of cer taiastreets and localities to which Amendments were roafe, drew forth considerable discussion, and which w« not concurred in.

V* , Deserted Places.— Another striking illus tration has been furnished, in the recent election, of the readiness with which the American people make conceffl'cna to the popular will and settle down Into perfect quiet from the extreme o r excitement. There was scarce seen or beard upon our streets, yesterday, among tho masses who, on Tuesday and Wednesday, were all hustle and anxiety, any Indication of the poli tical storm which had just swayed them; and apart from the customary little knots of politicians and idlers who throng the' vioinitv of Independence Hall.tbore was nothing to remind us, either of the successful struggle or the excitement whiota attended it. We thl * ln alODg Fifth aod Chestnut streets, In the vicinity of the “ People’s Headquarters True, ihe banner still waved, bearing tho names of the successful Candidates, and the rooms were Inviting y open, as usual; hut they were perfectly d sorted as We looked upon 'them—not even a commit* t»-e man or janitor being found within. * Othe-places, resorted to previous to yesteriay, presented the same dreary spectaolh—reminding, u» that the people, after having exercised the rights and privileges which even European nobl»R do not enjoy, and the proudest of them might envy, had left the exalting arena of politics—the dan ers aod chaSms of partv strife—content to repose In security and psace.beneath the sway.of those to whom tho majority had confided the management or our public affairs. What other people, beneath the sun, could, or would, yield so willing an obedience to the popular will? • .... The Navy Yard.— There was a resumption of-business at,the navy yard .yesterday; with k fo ce of near eighteen hundred men, for whose successful work there is scarce Sufficient accommodations. To-nijrht being the last day In the half month', His understood that the laborers will be romowhat ttfinned ont. There is a large quantity of work to be done,- The Lancaster will bj ready for Munching on the 20th, but she may not be before the lit of November. As soon as she Is out of the ahipibeuse, the work of building the seconi of tho n*w stoops .will be oomraonepd. The first is already framed, with the-exception of the forward cavils, and a largd force is at work upon her*. The Congress frigate is also belpg gradually prepared for sea It Is not designed to send ber as a flag ship, and therel« 'now no station to be relieved. The Unit'd States Survey steamer Walker- still lies at the yard, bntwi 1 be sent fo her fanner station in the gulf in about six weeks. She was formerly commanded by Captain Bands, but will now bo commanded bv Lieu tenant T. B. Huyer. Besides these vessels, the pro peller W.W Chapin Is being fitt'd out for the Para guay wyied.tioD. Vessels are also constantly arriving at tho navy yard for repairs, and large quantities of timber'and supplies are arriving.' The disbursements ar« from forty to fiftv thousand dollars par month, quite an item in our city financial matters. Carelessness of Conductors Tho con ductors upon our passen.er railways are generally care ful and obliging, yet we have seen some Instacc s of carolessnesß in leaving passengers, and particularly la dlts off the cars, which justifies an admonition to them to be a little moro cautious They are frequently in such a burry that they cannot afford timefor'a lady to get off before they tp the hell. the car starts, and the passen ger is iu danger of being thrown down. We have seen several narrow escap'd from this cause: and ere any serious damage, results, the directors of tho different city lines should see that a uniform care shonld ha ex .ercised by conductors and drivers. Affray on * 1 Passyunk Hoad.—A man named John Rotteubnry was at a lager beer saloon; kept by John Oonrad, on the Passyunk road, near Qaeen street.

Oonrad refused to give it to him, and told him to leave the place, whenßotten bury, it is alleged, drew a shoe-knife, and plunged it into the shoulder of Conrad, inflicting a dangerous wound, gnd narrowly escaping severing thd jugular vein. Rottenbury was arrested and committed to prison to await the result. Musical.— Mr. Edward Thorboclio, who has for several years been.at the head of the musical de partment of the Troy (N. V.)

' CITY ITEMS. Tab Fur Trade.—As the season for furs is ra pidly approaching, a few words with reference to *hte branch of trade in this city may not'.he amirsj'sud.our first remark Is, that in this, as in almost evciy branch of mseufsetu e,' the celebrity of Philadelphia-made ar ticles is admitted by ali who knnw, and are sufflclertly disinterested to admit the truth. We were not at all surprised, however, at seeing In the New Tork PafA finder, a few days ago. an article npon the far trade in that city which, true to the' bragging instinct# of onr Gothamite neighbors, so elevated their, principal for eitabrshment abeve alt competitors in tbe world be side, that tbe unsophisticated reader might have been led to believe that thd far tmde ofthe world culminated In Manhattan Island that the monopoly of this culmination was centred under one roof, (and not a very capacious one at that, as we.happen to.know ) be tween a certain “Lane,” and a very narrow street. Not content with nuking the most absurd exaggera tions with regard to the extent o' their own trade, the writer of the article in question seeks by Ingenious ar tifice to establish for this New Tork bouse a monopoly 'in point of fair dealing, by insinuating that beyond the precincts that immaculate establishment ail purchasers of fare were liable to tbe srevsest de ception . The lnslnnation v is also contained in it, that New York has advantages is securing certain Eu ropean furs over every body else. Now/U a word,this is all sheer nonserse, aswho does not koow that Phila delphia money will go quite aa fat as that of New York ers, and Philadelphia character a good d*al farther? We despise the gome of striving to pull down others to elevate onrselves, and are, tbere'ore, quite willing to yield to New York all the advantages she possesses; but when, through her journals, an unblushing attempt Is made to place npon the topmost pinnacle a single house, when, at the same time, we hare 'in our own city an establishment In ths.same department of trade, alongside 61 wlrch the pronrietors of the New York house in question have privately admitted their own establishment to he but a mere “ sty,”, we think a word fa favor of bur own is justly dtsemdl That New York has the advantage of Philadelphia in point of wholesaUing furs, we do not dispute; yet, this is owing to her more contiguous position to porta where fur garments are in greater demand, and nof because of her better stocks; superior workmanship, or greater integrity of her merchants. The ieodiog house here— aod we will be pardened for thus singling it qut in refu ting tbe statements of onr New York contemporary— that of Mr. GsososP. Wombats, No*. 415'shd 41T Arch street, has done a large business annually fa the way of monufacturiog furs imported by gentlemen fa New York for their own private use; acd the reasons assigned by their New York'patrons in aueh cas*a'are,'first, that they obtain in Philadelphia better workmanship, and, secondly,'th at by_aendfag expensive furs here they feel assured that they wi>l always receive the same Juts made up, of whioh .they confess to having no aqprance in trusting them ia ths hands of their owp farriers., The splendid' establishment of Mr/Womrath,'oiT \rch street, we need notssyto onr readers at all fa miliar with the architectural beauties of our city, is ime.of.tbe owt mporb business edifices In this country.. Its chastely ornate front of Nova. Scotia pietoa stone,' aurmouutod, as it is, with appropriate zoological repre sentations, presents to tbe stranger a point of striking Interest. Nor are the interior' arrangements; of this stately edifice less complete and extensive: The eharse ter of this house, however, is not a wholesale business, but retail exclusively, and as such it stands confessedly unrivalled. In itjthe moat expensive Sets of fun far pro ole of wealth in this and other lands are annually manu factured to order, aod in passing through their mammoth store-rooms and manufactory recently we were aton«* pleased andjurprlsed to find the prtparal ir>r s ■ retail market on so extensive a scale Being the oiii. c fur establishment' in this country; the onafidenee re posed in its p-oprietor is flatteringly attested by scores of his patrons in Baltimore, New York, and other places, HAodiog their fur > to him every spring for safe-keeping luring summer. NWe ought to s ate here tbst Ur. Womreth’s exten sive arrangements for obtaining furs directly front the' Indians in this oountry has enabled him in not a few instances to sell furs thus proaure'd, at a paying profit, to parties who would lead the world to briiere, on pa per, that every fur-dealer In the land, was trihatarv to them. As regards the insinuation that furriers outside if the very distinguished New Tork house, above refer red to, would stoop so much as to impose upon the Sg -1 norant by selling Marten for.Bussla Bable, It can cer tainly reflect no greater suspicion upon any one than hose in tho trade who seem to he most anxious to put > iho public on their guard. In what we have -seen thus 'ar among our furriers here, their preparation for the trade of the approsohing soason is creditable, and will Joubtloss command, as usual, a liberal patronage, judg •ag as we do from the present activity in our city in other branches of the retail trade. BuBlveBs and “toe Result.!*—Between the ■lull, rainy weather of Wednesday, the unseasonably warm weather of yesterday, and the general rejoicing over “the result” of Tuesday,business since then may just'y be said to have been slightly at a discount. Upon ! ’be whole, however, so far as we have been able to learn in our perambulations, the tadset of this tem porary i omno’ency are thought to fully compensate for their effects. The country was in need of rain, and the dresent mild weather is of great value to farmers in at tending to certain duties which frost wcitld seriously interrupt. The rain of Tuesday night and Wednesday, we art told, has been of great service in many quar ters, and in dry sections afforded a deliverance from drouth almost as gratifying to the residents as the de liverance of the public crib from certain served-right leeches has been gratifying to the people Upon tbe whole, the business pulse of our city beats hopefully, ■vnd the utmost confidence is expressed by leading men in the several brancree of retail ttade, that business, between this and -the holidays, will be entirely satis fic'ory. The general rejoicing over the recent triumph of right over might, at the hands of an intelligent and independent people, is so universal among our men Of business, that, of the scores with whom'we have con versed since the eleoUon, wo have not met the first man to express himself dissatisfied wi*h the general result. In a word, our business men, as a whole, are jabilant and 'eel that, under the circumstances, a short, breathing spoil In their coantifig-houses and behind the' connter can well be afforded.
