LETTEB FEOM THE EDITOR.
New York City on Sunday.
Nkw York, Sunday, Sept. 11,1850.
Now York fix* .many curious phases! Volikfl
othtr cities* yefe combining, many of their adrgM
tagee, it is uninteresting study to the traveller,
whether natiTe or foreign born. Those
to the life of London and Paris, are surprised '*{
the eharacteriitici of Now York; at the enteV*
prise, wealth, gaiety, and progress of the vast
community of men and women here assembled; at
the commercial and manufacturing resources of
the place itself; and the strange .association* and
Granger inoldenta of wbloh it Is always the thea
tre. Paris is, of course, more attractive to the
pleasure-hunter, and London moredmprecsira from
the vaStness of its proportions; hut both are ao
because they are the offspring of centuries of
time* 'of long ager.of trials, and of the incalcu
lable strife of nations in every field pi learning
and art, peace and war, philosophy and expo- -
riment. The present New York is, bowirar, a
product of less than half • a century, and yet
it stands to-day in oolossal magnificence, with
evory’mark or permanency, and every element
progress to make it the rival of those who are
gray with the frosts of hundreds of years, and en
trenched in the traditions and histories of the past/
It is, therefore, utter absurdity for anybody to
deny to the city of New York strong claims upon in
telligent consideration. It la cosmopolitan, not
local; a oorjoratlon of nationalities; a commnni
ty of strangers, always ebanging, always going, and
always coming; a representative, not only of all
tbe States of this oontlnent, but of overy civilised
race on the globe. Whatever men may say, every
body oomei to Now York who can do ao; and
though nearly everybody abuses it by turns, the
sentiment of Americans and foreigners orysUlize*
at last into a verdict of praise and of amazement.
“A Sunday in New York!” llow unlike a
Philadelphia or a Poston Sunday! I write this
in my room at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, after a
rather Industrious tour of observation during to
day'a&bbath. To see human life in three of its
moods ou such a day, as it can be seen nowhere
else in America, and as I have seen it, Is worth
telling the readers of The Prtrz ; and I will do it
rapidly, if not well. First—this great hotel. You
have been told about It by our correspondent; and
as it !s not my business to praise or describe, ao
much as to glance at some of the lights and
shadows going on within its walls, I leave the
details V> your recollection. _lt Is a huge eara*
v sneers!; a world of itself; a sort of Great Eastern
ashore. It is, in fact, a picture of the city in
which it is fixod. One day after it was oponed it
was filled from collar to dome; filled with fast men
and women—young and old—from North and South,
Fast and West. They all seem to be rich. They
all appear bent on making the most of what Is left
of their titao. What is to be bad for money they
are sure to have, and well do the engineers of
this hotel-Babol understand their customers. It
Is oou to ask to get—/or the paying. Do you
know that there an people who spend their lives
in these crowded and exciting honsce—not bache
lors and barbarians of that sox, bat refined ladtcr,
mothers and fathers, families—and like it toot
Well, believe it then, for so it Is. Not* few have
a habit of flocking to every new hotel, and enjoyiog
it while it is dean. Bat to live in one of these
human hives always, l almost think I should pre
fer a solitude. I could eonoeire no greater pun
ishment than to be forced to make a New York
hotel my abode on ibis earth all the time. * It is an
Institution to enjoy occasionally—a* yon enjoy a
play, or a ball—a sort of relief from the cares of
business, or the monotony of every-day daty or
moral quiet. I commiserate these who are forced
to stay at home because they have “ nothing else
to do.” I look with amassment upon those
who make that whioh is 'an exceptional plea
sure to me the delight of their lives. Io speak
ing of the people at the Fifth Avenue Hotel
T refer w w tfew eet now" under iU metallic
roofs. If not the seme omnof and Browns,
the tame Joneses and Jenkinses, all the year round,
however, they are the same kind of people. I
could almost swear that I saw that young lady on
the sofa, with her white hands, and her red lips,
and her gausy-blue dress, sitting against the crim
son wall In these parlors to-day twelve years sgo
at another of these hotsl-steamboats aground.
The same kind of old men with tight boots, and
dyed hair, and boyish oollars, like Major Perrion
nls in “ PtndinnU”—the same young fellows, Indus
trious about their moustaches, which tbiy grow to
(ease—the same Southerners, with black eyes, flow
ing locks, heavy canes, and stunning cigar*—the
same female botel-faoea in the groat hall*—the
same aristocratic children in tbe great entries—the
same cat-footed waiters—the same Irish servant
girls, beautiful, but as unapproachable as porcu
pines—the same gentlemQn behind the office*—the
same genteel politicians at the bar—the same per
fumed barbers offering yon infallible hair oil to
cure incurable baldness. Alt these are here to-day,
under different names, it may bo,, but about as
well known to me, and as familiar, and much
alike, as U \p hotel population l have seen in other
days, when other great houses were novelties.
Sunday in suoh eompany! Imagine it. Ido not
doubt that among all tbeso mortals thore are many
good men and women; that many go to church and
pray, and mean well; and that they are exemplary
in every relation of life. But if you could toe them
at breakfkst at-eleven A. M., when Dr. Ilawks Is
preaching to his aristocratic hoarer*, in their vel
vet pows; at dinner at four P. M ; when afternoon
service is in full operation; and at supper from
nino till twelve P. M., you would agree with me
that they had left their piety at home, and brought
only Uielr purses and tbolr appotites to New York.
I like tho Fifth Avenue Hotel. It is a wonder. I
oame to see it out of sheer curiosity. It is worth
the expenso. But as I am no judge of such enter
prises, I will not bore you with a criticism, save to
say that there is too much noieo in the halls up
stairs, too roueh hasle at the meals, and an appa
rent want of control over tho servants. But theso
will be amended as the machine moves more regu
larly in the ruts of experience. My favorite hotels
In New York, (though I rarely patronise either
now.) are tho Astor House and the New York Ho
tel. The first is a little too far down towo, (Stet
son is a prince of hosts,) and the second is so filled
with President-makers that an humble “ rebel’ 7
Uko myself is coutent to be lost in the great oeoan
in which I am now getting moat and drink.
After breakfast I thought I would go to bear
some good music, and so, accompanied by the Now
York correspondentof The Press, sauntered to the
Roman Catholic Church of 6t. Xavior. Wo took
ouy seats in tho gallery, for paid each
ton coots admission, as did all, rich and poor, who
sat in that part of tho house—a feo intended
to defray expenses. Before tho services I watch
ed tho arrival of tho congregation. There is,
and always has been, something to me in tho
Catholic service singularly impressive. It-is a
gorgeous worship. Its music, its ceremonials, its
universality—the fact that it is conduotod in the
same languago all over the world—attracted mo
in early life, and though bred (and still) a Pro
testant, I allrlbuto to this the liberality I have al
ways felt for those attaohed to this denomination.
Tho sincority of these people is one of their great
olaims upon confidence. Tboy bollevo in tbeir
oreod, and in many of their externals they are a
positive blessing to society* I do not pretend to
discuss whether they are right or wjong. I am no
dootrinairo. X have no sympathy with the fac
tions who quarrel over tho Soriptures, and from
its peaceful pages distil nothing bnt dissensions
upon civilised nations; but I believe that that
oannot be a bad roligion whioh fills its devotees
with so much love for it, and whioh rescues so
many ignorant beings from a moral death. As
tho men and women camo iu, tnis morning, I
scanned their countenances. How universally Hi
bernian! Even tho apparently wealthy and edu
cated bad the stamp of the Emerald Isle. The
loveliest girls in the most luxurious pews were spir
itually Irish. Near me eat a heavy browed, broad
shouldered fellow, with a very dull face; but how
full of devotion, as he entored his seat, threw him
self on his knees, orossed himself, and murmurod his
prayers! Before the altar, and in the midst of the
brocades and silks of the rich, knelt a poor woman
in a very plain dross and sun-bonnet, and her de
votion was continued to the close. Along tho
aisles, on the very steps leading to the gallery,
these bumblo .Catholics were to be seen kneeling.
Directly boforo me were two young men, evi
dently moohanlos, with a little of the rowdy in
their ©yes, and some rebellion in their hair, (the
manner in which it yvas worn,) and yet each had
his book, each went down cn his knees, eaoh was
bowed in turn before the God which' bis faith
taught him to rovoronco. I confess the scene inte
rested me. The musical part of tho service was
grand. You must understand that St. Xavier is
famous throughout tho Amerioan Catholic Church
for the perfection of its oholr. Crowds are attract
ed every Sunday to hoar it. I went for this pur
pose, and was not disappointed. The organ, un
der the manipulation of Barge, became a full
orchestra. He performed with exquisite skill and
vast power; and it was almost impossible to be

and melodies, in company with the voices of the sing*

THE COLORED <URL'9 aTATXMKXT.
(From the Harrisburg Telegraph;"Monday evenisr-B'
On Saturday afternoon, after our paper went %
press, Wm. Knox, committed to prison on a chargf.
of murder, was liberated on a writ of habeas, cor?
pus, and had a hearing before Judge Fearaoiu
when he entered'ball* on three securities, bo the
sum of $16,000, for hU appearance at the next
court, to answer the charge. He was held torMs
own recognisance for $5,000, Samuel Knox $5,000,
and fitetrart Maloney $5,000. Inasmuch u them
are various rumen afloat respecting the oolored
firl's statement, we pnblish the official informa
idn made and sworn to by her before Justices
Smith, of Carlisle, and Beader, of Harrisburg. It
rends as follows:
Cumberland county, ss.
Personally appeared before me, David Smith, a
justice of toe peace in and for the coonty afore
said, in the iail of Cumberland county, Catharine
O’Brlan alias Isabella Clark, who being dolv
sworn, deposes and says: That in the spring of
1953 Hired at the house of Sarah Black* in the
borough of Harrisburg, Dauphin county; William
Knox and two other men came to the bonce of said
Mrs. Black some time in the night; I cannot tell
the day, bnt it was in the spring of 1858. The
three men went upstairs of Mrs. .Black'S house
into a room, and commenced to play cards; I saw
one hundred dollars in silver and notes on. the
table; (I heard one of the men say there iyaa one
hundred dollars;) the men commenced quarreling
about thd money; one of the men pulled out a
knife, and Knox pulled out a pistol, and shot one
of the men in the side of the bead; I saw the man
fell; Knox then went into another room in the
boose* and got a sheet out of a bureau, and came
into the room where the man was lying which he
bad shot, and wrapped him in the sheet; Knox
and the other man carried him down stairs into
the garden.
. I went down in the garden the next morning ; I
saw fresh ground thrown up; it looked like as if
some one bad beon burled there; I also saw blood
in the garden where the ground had been
dug up; Knox told me not to toll on him what he
had dono—if I did he would serve me the same
as he bad dono the man he had shot; Knox gave
me monoy several times, eo that I would not tell
on him; tho next day after the said occurrence,
Mrs. Black planted soma kind of seed on the place
where the' ground had been dug or thrown up; the
man who.assioied Koox to carry the man who was
shot down stairs I cannot name; I know him by
* sight, but not by name; h»U a constant companion
or Knox; the garden in which Knox end the other
man carried the man who was shot is attael*d to
tho house of Mrs. Black; the blood and ground dug
up was about halfway down the garden from Mrs.
Black’s house.
(From the Harrisburg Patriot, Tuesday morning.)
Nothing new or startling in tho mysterious mur
der case has been elicited since our last istne. - Dis
trict Attorney Herr gaveorders,yesterday, to have
a further search made about the premises of Mrs.
Black: The workmen will dig deeper, and under
mine or move the bake oven In the yard. We do
not consider it necessary to attempt to pnblish the
various reports that bare been put in circulation in
relation to the matter. Mr. Knox has been bouud
over to answer the charge before oontf, which as
sembles in November. Iu the meantime, witnesses
from all parts who know anytblag of the matter
will be sent fur, and the" mysterious affair” will
undergo a thorough logal investigation. Time, pub
licity, and search may throw some light upon the
case; and as it is our wish to assist the authorities
and serve the ends of jnstiee, we hope that oar ex
changes will make it publio if they know of any
person having been missed mysteriously about eigh
teen or twenty months ago.
Negro Killed ,by an Overseer.—Tho
Memphis (Tenn.) Avalanche learns that as Samuel
Baxter, overseer on the plantation of Mr. Cannon,
was passing along in - the neighborhood of the
plantation of Qeorge L, Holmes, on the Stele Line
road on the 6th inst., he came across a negro man
belonging to Mr. Frank Dennis, who had beetv
searching for some stray stock, and whom he
took to be a runaway, and attempted to arrest as
such. A souffle ensued between, them, the negro
throwing Baxter 'to the ground, when the latter
drew a pocket knife with which he stabbed the
former several times in various parts of the body,
killing him almost Instantly.
