YTbo, thon, wti tho Senator of thounitod States whose memory thus vibrates on the henrt-ztringa of & people norOBS a whole continent-—who thus receives those huncr** hitherto bestowed only upon the groat Senatorial names of Clay, Calhoun, Webster and Ronton ? Who was this man, whoso funeral obsequies aro thus celebrated on either ocean 7 He was one who, twenty years Ago, in this city, worked at tho daily toil of a stone cutter’s appren. tico, but who, orphaned, poor, unaided by acci dent, unfriended by woa)th and power, lived to be como an eduoated man, a Icaaer among his dis tinguished compeors, and finally attained a posi tion in our Government only second to that of the Presidency. Of this man I have como to speak to you. He was for a long time your fellow-citizen. , re lust he endured tboseverest privations his early Ilf©; it was here that ho formed that high rosolye which lifted him from tho obscurity of his first condition; it was here that he took the Upon the great difilcult ladder ol fam*. which he go successfully ascended ; it was your kindness which first cheered bis hopeful heart; it was your support which stimulated him to his noblest efforts; and when, at the end of his proba tion, be went out into a larger field of action, com petent to qope with men of greator advantages, of larger experience, and ofoqual intellect, he waa as much your work as his own. For the people of this city he ever folt the deepest gratitude and the warmest affection. lam certain that the persona) ambition of his life was fully gratified when ho re turned hero, clothed with senatorial honors, josti fyingyouroarJy support, and more than fulfilling your fondest predictions. •After recapitulating the facta and incidents o! li private andpublio life, and tracing bis history down to the end of last Congress, the orator proceeded: At the clone of tbo last session of Congress Mr Broderick was urged by many of hb friends to em ploy tho rocess in a visit to Europe. Ruth a diver sion would have been very grateful to him/ While a boy he had proposed suoh a lour as one of the possible, but scarcely hopod-for achievements of bis life; but now, as a man, as a politician, and as a growing atatosman, qualified by exienrivo reading, «nd by a careful study of history, such a visit would bo interesting in observation, fruitful in suggestion, and valuable in result. Seonre for tbs next four years In hi* Senatorial position, and wearied with tho toils of an unsuccessful oontest, a loss brave or a loss conscientious politician would have evaded tho struggle of the ccming election in California, in which he could have hardly hoped tp succeed. Not so with Broderick. He not only re nounced tho cherished pleasure of hU lifo, but ac* copied the alternative, although ho clearly saw defeat In the issue, and death In tbo vanishing Pplnt of the vista. Ho had already not only set tled. in his own mind where bis duty lay, but bad, wisely or unwisely, determined the nature of the contest; It was to be one thickly studded with per sonal issues, and In those issues he saw abun dantly sown the seeds of death. Against all the weapons which would surely seek his life he could not even hope to stand; U was even almost 11 hop ing against hope ” tooxpeot that be could defer the nominal sacrifice until after tho political coulee! had been terminated. And so, when Broderick riowlv passed oul of the Senato chamber, which he folt that ho was never to enter again: so. when Ihe golden cross of Trinity reflected to him for tbr last tiuio tho gloaui of tho sotting sun, as city, and island, and coast, sank down in tho deepening twilight into tho obscurity of ocean, oml be de parted for the last lime to bis loved Paclfio Stato, to onter upon bis last contest, feeling that the blaok messenger of Death fluttered over him with his inevitable nicss&go, I cannot conceive, or draw from history or fable, it spectacle moro mournful or sublime. For this consciousness of tho coming oatastropbo wa9notamore superstitious presenti ment, tho nightmare of shattered nervee, of a dis ordered or of a weak intellect, but the conclusion of a wound judgment Acting clearly and deliberately, and as certainly as upon the ordinary businoMot life, “foreseeing tho end from the be ginning.’’ To-what, then, shall wo liken his great procession to tho firm) zacritW t Not. rertoirly. to the impulse which hurled Cui uus into tho gulph which opened to swallow up tho destinies of Rome; not to (ho decorate valor of Lrounins, which hoped for von<rp(iuco rathorthan for success; but riilher to tho •'uir-immolution ofeomo greater hero, who binds the sacrificial wreath upon his own brow, and extends himself ns a victim upon the altar; ruther to some Prometheus, even more sub lime than tho conception of the pool, chainingbim sclf to the cold and wditary summit of Caucasus, and oflorlug his own brc&tt to tho eternal vulture. •‘ You will sco me no more,’’ was his mournful pre diction to a friend who grasped his hand, for the last Umo, upon tho departing steamer. Alas, how his heart was wrung to utter those words of hope less farowol!! So when the death-bolt bad reached him, and his mournful presentiment wa3 fulfilled, how noble was the feeling which prompted him to suppress all personal resentment, and to express only tbq regret (hat tho leadership of his party vra* struck down with him. *• Let my friends take courage by my example, and if need be, dio like mo. Lot It not bo buliei ed that my death resulted from a few Idlo words, or from anything but ray political position.” Such woro his dying words —finch, most undoubtedly, his dying convictions; and if these indicate tbo lofry purpose with which ho accepted the call to the deadly fiold, I do not !>e« low he could have avoidod that i*suo. As n Christian man, with a horror of mur der that I cannot expnws, and with a clear percop (ton of the oiruumstauecs, X still cannot eeo how Broderick could have rotainod his leadership and hftvo declined the fight. Doubtless bis purposes and his mental eonfliot aro well embodied in tho language of the great German, *• Hero I stand—l cannot do otherwise; God help mo!” And ns to that leadership, thus borno to tho ground in the fall of Broderick—of htm who ulwAys took courage, evon from defeat, and, like hla kindred Tit Ans, borrowed renewed strength from contact with his mother earth, even though hurled to her bosom— of that leadership it needs no political sympathy, hut only admiration of personal courage and chi valrous gallantry, for us to speak in fitting terms. AU true sons of honor and of chivalry confess Tlie true jo> which warriors Perl In lotMnen worth) of tneir '‘tec*); and the groat politicians—tho groat statesmen of the land—nrknuwlodgo the same feeling, ami pay the same tribute to the trusted virtues of honesty, truth, fortitude, Mid courage. So his bravo ad versaries, with sorrow, saw tho son of Charles XII go down ioto evorl.itiitjg night at Puttowa ; eo grieved tho enemies of (lustavus Adolphus over his uutimely fato at Dutton; so would all tho Catholic knighthood of V.uropo have lamented if tho while plume of Henry had sunk beneath the foremost wave of battla nt Ivry; bo mourns tho truo chivalry of America over tho fall of Itro dorick, even though to theiroppnnonts and to their fojtowors— (mo blast noun lus lmrio horn Wore worth a thousand men! Hut while wo. who knew and loved him well, thus pour our tears upon his fresh grnvo.let no one imagine that thto is a local or «n individual grief Xo! When, at tho next assembly of her most dis tinguished g'uy*. our country shall find mio placo brought into mournful protofnonec by the fatal ab sence of its illustrious occupant—despite of ike tionnliem and of party differences, despite of local sentiment—honest hearts shall bo still found to prompt, and cbivalrlc tongues to utter a bravo eu logy over tbalr dead brother in arms, Sworn to them, and truo to them in that universal path of all real knighthood—fidelity to Principle. I cannot wonder that tho people of tho pre-hlstoric ages de ified many of those great men who wero cut off In the primo of their honors. If we road the obscure Jessonfl of history aright, I do not doubt that tho demi-gods of antiquity wore but the historic me mories of great men whoso missions had been inter rupted by death—a catastrophe to which the wants and tho bodies of their cotemporaries could not be reconeilcd.

Jlopo awaited their advent, until f ‘llope waited against Hope,” and finally deified tho attri bute whoso return to earth had ceased to be ex pected. “ Thoy will no moro contend beside us in our earthly conflicts, but for us with tho Fates above.” So, when wo see tho aged Adams expi ring in tho Capitol, wo aro ready to exclaim with him, "This » tbo last of earth;” so, when the great soul of Clay sends up its last aspiration in tho logislutivo city whero his life had been apent, wo cumulate a rovcrootlal Amenso, when the 1 wearied spirit of Calhoun, in its Intense intellec tual activity, wears away the last thin film which binds it to corporoal life, wo joyfully chant at once ; the “Itequiescat” and the “Resuream;” so, when tho great Intellect of Webster, brokenhearted and with ominous ami increasing languor, seeks a death bed In tho retreats of his * J Sabine farm,” we tune our throats to the ° Non omuls mortar” of Horace, and tho still more sublimo 11 X still Hvo” of tho Pu ritan patriot.

At eleven o’clock the names of the crand and pettit jurors summoned by the marshal for the term were called, and they were then regu larly Strom, Mr, John G. Brenner waa appointed foreman of the Grand Jnry. The pettit jurors were discharged until to-morrow morning, at ten oViock. there being no eases ready for immediate trial. Cadwalader briefly informed the Grand Jury of the nature of ita duties, and stated that Mr. Vandyke, the Ifnit*3 States District At tomey, would lay before them at once all soch mattefs as required their action. The court then adjourn ed. Among the list of esses that are arranged for •trial in the District Court are several of an exceed ingly important character. Thcso embrace the crimes’ of embezzlement, counterfeiting and al leged cru«! treatment of seamen. Among the first whicq will probably bo disposed of Is that of Sam uel P. Ramsey, recently arrested in the uppeT sec tion of the city while in tbo act of passing and at tempting to pass a number of well-executed coun terfeit gold dollars. This defendant has been pre viously tried on similar charges, and on one occa sion fled from the citv. lie was subsequently ar rested by Detective Officer William Russell. William M.

Oyer asd Tbrjoser.-—Judges Thompson and Ludlow.—Yesterday was fixed for the com mencement of the trial of homicide cases. Attcp o’clock the dock was entirely filled with person?, all of wLora staqd charged with the commission of the highest crime known to the law. Tho oldest of the prisoners was John Hall, a colored man. who is indicted for the murder of a woman in Bedford rireet, and the youngest was John Sweeney, the trial of whose Cause consumed the entire day. The first case called was that in which James Gecgan, Daniel Price, 'William Hats, and George Alexander, are for the murder of John Eicble. The defendants’ ct>anMessrs. Leonard K. Fletcher and John Goforth, suggested to the court, that as a writ of habeas corpus, asking for Iho discharge of the prisoner* under the two-term rule, had been argued before Judge Strong of the Supreme Court, ard that as the matter was held under advisemeut Is that tribunal, it was not pro per to go on with’he trial until a decision should he obtained. AfU r considerable discussion, a mo- Hod to that effect was made and granted. The witnesses f* the case were then discharged until further n/ tics. The case of John Sweeney was tbo next on the list for trial, and District Attorney Mans stated that he was rpady to proceed with it at once. Dan iel Dougherty apwared for the defence, assisted by Mr. Albert IV Mnrkor as junior counsel. The best part of the morning was oonsumed in empa nelling a jury. Finally, one waa obtained, as fol lows: Caspar Guyer, John F. Keen, Thomas H. Flood, Frederick lie<s, Moses Bowman. Edwin Kirkpatrick. Henry J. Preston, Isaac Bedford, James McGill. James 8. Pierson, Cbas. D. Reid, and Richard MorrelL ITie bill of Indictment was read in the usual dig nified stylo, by Mr. Poronrd Sbarkoy, the effioient court clerk, after wh’ch Mr. Mann opened the case to the jury. He speke of tho enormity and the grades of the crime o£ murder, and then proceeded to narrate the facts as he thought they would be developed by the testimony. Johrjb’weeuey was charged with murder in kilt ing John Parks, by rotting him with a knife on the left side of tho abdomen, oetwoen the tenth and eleventh ribs, on the 19th day of February last. The deceased lived until the 2lst of February. The killing took place at or near the houso of the de fendant. It appears from the depositions taken by Alderman Cloud, when dyiug/that both the dece dent and tho defendant live at or near Miseteenth and Cumberland streets; that the defendant came to Parks’ house on Friday night, the 18th of Feb ruary, 1839, aftor ID o'clock, and shortly after ward* was followed by twn others, whom Parks did not know; that Swecuey called Parks out to the door, and him if ho could tell where be eould get any liquor to drink; that tho three men wen* away, but Sweeney rotumed in a few minutes md asked Parks to go out and got adrink ; that Parks told Sweeney ho did not wish to drink any thing; that Sweeney theu said to him, “Come out here, there ia a machinist who wishes to see you th&t Parks then went out, and was stabbed three times liv the defondant.

Intelligence from Pike’s Peak. [Correspondence of The Press.) MorSTAis City. K. T., Oct. 13, l&Sff. Von ask me to give yoa’seme details, of a relia ble nature, in relation to the country, and I will do so, far as lam acquainted with the facte: Until about the first of August the whole mining Harriet wad included in'an Area of about thirty five railed, commencing at Bonlder diggings on the earth, and extending to the Gregory claim on the *->uth, with Jefferson and Trvsdvocd between, and he Spanish and Jackson diggings to the west of Gregory. In July the population of the mining district* was computed at about 40,000, but Urge number* returned to the State! or west on to California, disgusted with the country, either because they did not know where to find tho gold (the character of the region being eo entirely different from Cali fornia and other gold countries) or hecaoas they were unwilling to suffer the privations and endure the toils of gold-hnnting. But where men were witling to work, and had some capital to start them with proper tools, the search was nearly always remunerative, arid in some cases lucrative beyond all precedent. I | have known as high as a thousand doUan to have been taken from a single Jl lead claim” in one day. I know of “ gulch’' claims that have yielded fifty thousand dollars already this season, clear of all expens##. About the Ist of August rich discoveries were made in the South Park, on the South Platte, Blue river, head water of the Colorado and other itreaau, and a great stampede was made for the park. X am tnfonded that the diggings on the north branch ot tho Platte, called "Tanyall diggings,” average a yield of a pound of gold a day ycr «uw, but the weather is too cold for mining operations in that region new. Ri*h discoveries were aleo made near tho i-'nowy Range and west of them, bat mi ning operation# w*tc prevented by the Utah In dians and Mormons, a great many miners being killed. If Uovernmest should fend a protecting company this winter, there will be rich disco veries made beyond the Snowy Range the coming «u.iomer. There are from ten thousand to twelve thousand men still in the region, but numbers are taring daily, some returning to the States, and some going down to th« valleys fur winter quarter*. The mi ning will ho all suspended in a few week*. Snow fell on September TJ to the depth of six Inches, hut the Lot gun of the middle of the day is causing U to disappear rapidly: and while the days are wans enough to work, the snow-water ii very valuable la the diggings/? The health 1* usually good, but we dread the effeot><>r cold, bleak nights, and the hot can. Fe vers and ague are beginning to appear, bet the tnen are very temperate; some of them axe old gold-bunters, and learned wisdom by their expert cave in California. Flour is worth SIS to |2Q per cwt., though la Denver (forty miles off) it can be had for $l3 to SN. Bacon is 35 cents per pound. Sugar MctaU. Coffee 35 cents per pound. Provisions are consi derably below the«e figures in the valley, but It is a rough road up, and dealers charge a good J>nee for transporting and the storekeepers a good per centage for selling them. _ ~ A Convention met on sepwm.ber loth at Golden City to nominate a candidate for Cong Tess.
