Paiusuar, The Surrender of Walker. As the smoke clears away, and we begin to perceive the circumstances attending the surrender and execution of WALKER in Hon duras, we find reasons for surprise, if not for complaint. We grant he deserved death at the bands of the authorities of the State against which be bad levied unprovoked hostilities; and wo have heretofore expressed our unqualified con demnation of his having seduced bravo but misguided mon from our own shores, to suffer, and many of them to perish miserably in a foreign land. We now go still farther, and admit there was a reprehensible carelessness, if not_a criminal connivance, in regard to WALKER'S raids, on the part of our Govern ment, under the extreme Southern eounsels, to which it seems to have surrendered itself. The Manchester (England) Guardian calls it "the shuffling and evasive policy of Mr. Bu m/aux." For WALKER'S fate simply, then, we have no regrets; but for the a manner of his taking off," or, rather, at his unconditional and (as far as we can learn) unasked surrender to that fate by a British officer to whom, and to whose flag alone, he had surrendered him self—that challenges our surprise, if not our condemnation. A nearly parallel case, except in the rank and respectability of the parties, (which makes no difference in law or strict justice,) is to bo found la that of Marshals SAVARY, (Duke of Rovigo,) and LALLEKAND, who accompanied the first NAroLzoN when he surrendered him self and suite, to Capt. MAITLAND, of the Bri tish ship Bellerophon, off the French coast, in 181 b. We do not propose to enter into the special, pleading which English statesmen were compelled to adopt; in reference to the course pursued toward BONAPARTE himself; nor the ex post facto act of Parliament,* pass ed avowedly to legalize his imprisonment. All the rational defiance over presented by, or in behalf of the English Government, was upon the ground that he was a "prisoner of war," and might be dealt with as such—while the special act of Parliament declaring this, amounted. to an admission that ho was not so until the passage of the statute imposed tho character upon him. Nor shall we turn over the treaties between Honduras and England ; because we apprehend that the great British nation has never bound itself to perform po lice service, or play the tipataff for a beggarly, half-civilized Government, which is eternally in a state of revolution. Our conclusions are drawn from the facts stated by the correspon dent of the New York Herald, published a few days since, with regard to WALKER'S sur render to the commander of the British sloop of war, Icarus, the representative of her Bri tannic Majesty. With these facts in view, and WALKER'S formal protest against being given up to the authorities of Honduras, we pro pose to turn over Commander SALMON, of the Icarus, to bo judged by the doctrines of (his peer at least,) the bravo and chivalrous com mander of the Bellerophon declared in the case of SAVARY,BIId LALLEMAND. It will be recollected, that in the disposi tion made of the officers accompanying NAro- LEON, these two marshals were prohibited from going with the fallen Emperor to his island prison. They had also been excluded from the amnesty proclaimed by the new Government of 'France. Under these circumstances, dread ing their being surrendered to the French au thorities, as resulting in the same fate which the gallant NEY afterwards met with—they appealed to Captain MAITLAND, alleging that their surrender was to the British flag, and to the representative of the British Government. They also addressed a letter to that justly eminent English lawyer and statesman, Sir SAMUEL RommLy, to be laid by him in their behalf before the British ministry. This let ter, written by the Duke of Rovigo, with' all its faults of spelling and grammar, may be feund by the curious upon this question, in the Diary of BOMILLY; published atter his de cease. It was presented, together with one from Captain MAITLAND to Lord MELVILLE, before Lord Chancellor ELDON. In tho course of the discussion between Sir SAMUEL BOWL LY and Lord ELDoN,•it accidentally leaked out that BONAPARTE himself had already been sent to Sea again, and that the Bellerophon was soon to, be joined by the Northumberland, Which was to convey the imperial prisoner to St. Helena. Well might so jest a mind as that of RouiLLy's exclaim : ac Hew stran go that all this should have been determined on and carried into execution before the Minis ters knew with exactness what had passed be tween Captain MArrLAND and BoNArAwra, and in what manner the latter understood he was received on board a British ship 1" f SAYARY and 'LAIL/HAND were finally sent, by the English Government, to Malta, for a time, and until the French authorities were propitiated for their return to their own coun try. The'peint we make in regard to WALlcmt is this: Even if he had been a pirate, or hoetts ImMIUMM generic; carrying about with him caput irspinum, (as the legal phrase runs,) still he had surrendered to a representative of the English Government, with no expectation Whatever 'of being handed over to certain death at, the' hands of the semi-savages of Honduras. 'We must believe that this SALMON is an odd fish in the British navy, and that he had never read the following manly and gene rens letter, which was addressed, , as we have already said, to Lord MELVILLE "11. M B. BELLRROMON J PLYMOUTH, 3lst July, 1815. "Mr Loan: I am induced to address -your lordship in consegitence of having observed in the intimation delivered to Napoleon Bonaparte, of the number of persons allowed to accompany him to the island of St. Plelena,.that the names of La very - and 'lsillemand are expre ss l y excepted, whlati"together with their being proscribed in the Francis papers bad -erected in " them a belief that It is the Intention of his Majesty'a Government to deliver them up to the king of Prance Far be it from me, to assume such an idea • bat I hope your leidehip will make allowances 'for the feelings of an officer, who has nothing so dear to him as hie honor, and who could not hear that a stain should be affixed to a name he has ever endeavored to bear unblemished. "Those two men, Balmy and Lallemand, (What their character er conduct towards their own Country may be I know not,) threw themselves alder the protection of the British flag ; that pro. faction was granted them with the sanction of my nametrue no conditions were stipulated for, but acted in the fall confidence that their lives would be held sacred, or they never should have put a foot in a ship I command, without being made acquainted it was for the purpose of delivering them over to the laws of their own country. "I again beg leave to repeat to your lordship, that I am far from eapposla g it to be the intention of his Majesty's Government to deliver these men over to the laws of their country; but as they are strongly impressed with that belief themselves, and I look upon myself as being the cause of their being in their present situation, I most earnestly beg your lordship's influenoe may be exerted, that tiro men may not be brought to the seeffoldrwho olaimed and obtained at my hands.the protection 'of the British sag.

SALMON, but also upon the conduct of the British min istry of that day, in chaining ICtromoti to' a bleak and barren nick, in an insalubrious clime, even before they had inquired as to the terms upon which he had surrendered!

It is the re. signation of lion. EDWARDS PIERREPONT, as cue of the judges of the Superior Court, ad dressed to Governor Moacus. He was elected but three years ago, and after serving for a short portion of his official term, declines to act longer, and frankly states the reasons which have induced him to resign. It appears that about six years ago, when the old City Hall was burned, the court over which he pre sided was obliged to take temporary refuge ccin the fireman's lofts ofan engine house," and there in spite of ropeated attempts to erect proper new buildings, it has remained ever since, ex cept during a few short intervals, when better accommodations were temporarily procured, although repeated investigations have shown that these confined rooms cc were utterly unfit for the transaction of business ; ruinous to the health, and dangerous to the lives, of those who were obliged to live within them." Efforts very similar to those recently resorted to in Philadelphia were made to secure proper ac commodations. The New York Legislature authorized the creation of a building commis sion. The Mayor appointed the commis sioners, but the Board of Supervisors refused to confirm them. Then the Supervisors un dertook to erect a building themselves, but they found they "had no power to take the land of the park for any purpose." And while Judge PIERREPONT has been daily gasping for breath in the poisoned air of his little courtroom, hoping for a time that something would bo done to provide proper accommodations for the judges of a great city, upon whose decisions the most momentous questions depend, he says he has discovered, (taller three years of trial, that no man, or body of men, in the municipal government [of Now York] have any power to do any sub. stantial thing, except to stay the action of every other man, or body of men. Tho machinery of the city government is so cunningly devised that each wheel can stop the motion of every other,. and so that the whole shall by no possibi lity move in harmony together. No man is held responsible for anything, and no one appears to have the power to do anything but mischief." The result of the repeated efforts in Phila delphia to provide proper public buildings for our city has been substantially the same as that complained of in New York. While daily inconvenience is suffered by all con nected with, or who have any business to transact in, our courts and public offices, all the complicated machinery of our government is powerless to provide for the erection of commodious now edifices. When a fair pros pect looms up of having something' ractical accomplished, such powerful batteries aro turned upon the innovators who antagonise the "how-not-to-do-it" system that all their well-meaning efforts aro nullified. We have mighty influences to prevent the accomplish ment of important projects, but little efficient power to proniote them. The interests of real estate owners, the prejudices for or against particular locations, the jealousies and antago nisms of rival architects and contractors, con spire to prevent the consummation of the im provements which the public welfare demands, and which any or all of these parties would ho the moat clamorous advocates of if their pri vate views and purposes could be served. Considering that the gentlemen who composed the Commission, whose contract with Mr. MCARTIIIIR has recently been rejected by City Councils, are particularly well qualified by their positions to form a correct judgment in regard to the character of the new buildings needed in Philadelphia, and that their duties necessarily oblige them day after day to no tice, and to suffer serious inconveniences from, the insufficiency of the existing accommoda , lions, there certainly appeared to be good reason to suppose that some respect would have been shown for their action, and that their labors would have linen successful. But the whole question is now at sea again, and Philadelphia is substantially placed in the same imbecile position in regard to her build ings which Now York occupies. Judge PrennErzer proceeds in his letter to account for the neglect and delay from which ho has suffered by the bad government which prevails in our neighboring city, and the inat tention of its intelligent citizens to political affairs. His remarks on this subject apply with infinitely more force to New York than to Philadelphia ; but as a picture of the morals and controlling influences of the "commer cial metropolis," they deserve attention everywhere. He says: Government will be administered by some body—that may be relied upon; if the wise and good will sot attend to it, fools and knaves will. .Badgovernment and false notion , at what is wor thy always go together, and ect'andl, 'reset upon each other, as they do here.

It to =Lang harlots of your 'women and rogues of your men It is to tined that individu a l, will not be influenced . by' the `general tone of ' the community in which they live. Tho young man of good character and industrious habits, making his toilsome way up through the thorny road to honorable distillation in this great wilderness of men, cannot marry, because society Imposes upon him expenses whioh be can not meet; his pride revolts at alliance which de prives him of manly independence, or degrades his position among men. We all know the conse quences. Already the success of a lawyer is de. termined by the money which he makes; already the views of a nun toter of Christ is, in some degree estimated by the salary which he receives; and the time is hastening when the success of a judge on the bench will be measured by the money which he :shall there accumulate. If our wise, and good, rich, intelligent, and honest citizens, think these things of no moment, they will let them alone, as they have hitherto done; but they may rely upon it, th ese things will not let them alone." When it is recollected that these statements emanate from no sensation novelist, nor from no maligning foe, but from a grave Judge upon the Bench, in an official letter, wo can well imagine how strong must have boon the convictions, and how overwhelming the evi dence, which induced him to make such start ling allegations.

Mr. GUINNESS will scarcely leave England by the Great Eastern, for the Carinarthen Weekly Reporter says : cg We regret to state that the in spector of the Board of Trade has been obliged to suspend the certificate of the Great Eastern, and she will not be allowed to proceed on her contemplated voyage to America or elsewhere. It is reported that the mein axle of her screw has sunk; and there are other serious defects, which will require a considerable outlay of money to make good, and there is every pro bability of the great ship wintering - on the gridiron.

It was cordial, without being in trusive ; delicate and refined, while warmly en thusiastic. The young man will rarely in his life witness a more brilliant spectacle—rarely see gathered together an assemblage in which wealth and metal culture shall stand more clearly ex pressed than in this of Wednesday evening." The New York 2'ribunc, alluding to the opera tie entertainment here, says : In feet, the inte rest wee by no means confined to the stage display, the occasional splendors of which were alwaYs eclipsed by the unvarying magnificence of the spectacle in the front of the house.

Interesting Letter from " Occasional.” [Correspondence of The Press,] , WASEllfteToi, 00[0bOr 14, 1860. The Senate of the United States, during the short session whioh closes on the 4th of March, 1861, stands 66 Secession, or Administration De moorats, 27. Republioans, 2 Douglas Domoorats, with one vacancy from Oregon. The Administra tion will, therefore, hold absolute power in the Senate until the 4th of Merch, thereby enabling Mr, Duel:men to tilt all vacancies that may trans pire before that period, to be confirmed by the Senate ; an opportunity of which he will greedily avail himself. It will bo recollected that when President Tyler, prior to the inauguration :of James K. Polk, on the 4th of March 1846, at tempted to appoint certain men to high office, the Domooratio majority of the Senate resisted him. But for this action, the Hon. J. M. Read, of Penn sylvania, would now be one of tho Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States. It is not to be expeoted that Mr. Buchanan will bear himself in any other way toward Mr. Lincoln, if the latter is chosen President. Should another of the pre sent Justine of the Supremo Court die, or resign before the expiration of his Administration, Mr. Buohanan will then have to nominate two mem bers of that grave tribunal. The design long contemplated by the Preeident and the extreme men of the South will undoubted ly be attempted before the expiration of the pre sent Administration—l mean the reorganisation of the Supreme Court so es to place upon the bench of that high tribunal a sure majority, for years to come, in favor of the demands of the ultra pro slavery leaders. The vacancy created by the death of Justice Daniel, of Virginia, still exists. The President is anxious to appoint Judge Black, and he would have done so at the last session of Congress, but for information conveyed 'to him from his friends in the Senate, that the ap pointment would not be confirmed. The venera ble Chief Justice Taney, who continues to become feebler with increasing years, and who has been muoh irritated by the comments upon his decision in the Bred Scott ease, which, however objected to, was conscientiously given on his part, hoe bad more than one intimation of the anxiety of the Pre sident to receive his resignation in order that his place may not be filled by a Republioan Executive. Laboring under many infirmities, and justly proud of the high position he has maintained before the country and the world, this unrivalled jurist and honest man has doubtless become disgusted with the maohirtations of the different politicians who are clutching at his robes, and ,may gratify them by surrendering his Officer to these greedy can didates, and so enable the President to appoint two members of this 'high court - of judicature. ,These tempting plaint have intoxicated more than one leading man. The. secret of Caleb Cushing's treachery at Charleston and Baltimore may certainly be found In hie anxiety to emceed Daniel or Taney, and the fire-eaters of tho South would doubtless be more willing to accept him than Judge Black, because he has sunk to a blacker baseness to serve them. Be assured, they will not permit the President to appoint two Northern men upon the Supreme Bench. As the court now stands, there aro four North ern and four Southern judges. Should Judge Black succeed in overreaching Cushing, it is then arranged that John Cadwalader shall be. come Attorney General, and M. M. Phillips II• B. Judge for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. If, however, Judge Bleak should fail in this, it is gravely intimated that MY. Dallas will be re called to give him place as minister at the Court of St. James. The extreme South will get the ether judge, if the Chief Justice resigns. Mr. President Buchanan daily renews his threats not to return to Pennsylvania, the largo majority in Lancaster county for Curtin and the Republican ticket having deepened his disgust for his old home. I have it from . good authority that he is greatly smitten with a country-seat twelve miles from Washington, now owned by Mr. Batohelor, of " Batohelor's hair-dye," and that be hex paid it several visits in order to induce the bwdor to sell out at the lowest figure. It is a beautiful spot, and as it is located in tho old Dominion," tho "retired statesman" would bo in the midst of those he has latterly sorved to faithfully, and could distil the poison he tampering for his forth coming'worlt, " The llistory of Mr OWN TDIEB." The last Washington sensation was the parade of the Republican Wide• Awakes, to rejoice over the triumph of their party in Pennsylvania. Their numbers took the town by surprise, and their re solute bearing and compact columns, as wall as the respectability of those who participated with them in the procession, with the knowledge that they wore armed to protect themselves, probably pre vented a bloody tumult. The clerks from the ex treme South who, witnessed tho array, and fol lowed it through its march, did not hesitate fre quently to avow a ,desire to attack it, and more than one loudly asserted that it was an outrage to alien a Republican parade ,ppon slave territo ry ; (!) but when they were qutotly Informed that the Wide-Awakes not only bad lanterns in their hands, but revolvers in their pockets, and while determined not to provoke an attack, wore ready .to resist at all hazards and to he last extremity, no attempt was made to in terfero with them. The epeeoh of Mr. Kit goro, of Indiana, who spoke for the Repuldican National Committee, vies bold, frank, and ,'conser votive, and produkive of the happleat results. When one of tho'stipendiariee of tho Administra tion called out to htm from the vast orowd that ho (Mr. K) and his party intended to steal their =- gross, he replied aptly and at once that that was another of the misrepresentations under whioh the Republican party '• had , been compelled to rest. "We do not want your negroes," said he. " I am from Indians whioh has passed a. law prohibi ting negroes from hereafter entering her limits. I am equally opposed to the introduction of free no gross or slaves. Our party is the party of white men." This retort excited great enthusiasm, and many who came to scent went away Converted. The feet is, the Republicans hove bad Many accessions elnoo the result of the Pennsylvania Gubernatorial election. lam told that one hundred and seventy. five joined the club the night after the result. Everybody seems to be preparing for the advent of Lincoln's Administration. The tradesmoa, so far from being despondent, are rejoiced. They want to see new faces. They declare any change will be better for them, and that thoY Will confide no longer in those who' have been hard paymasters while in power, and who will not 'be any more trustworthy, now that their official tenure is rapidly expiring. The Washington ;people argue in this wise : that the whole community has fallen nto 'Mohan& of a sot of loaders who had convinced themeelves that by no possibility could they ever ho displaced, and that, thus believing, they have assieted the present Administration' in all of its follies. Under their induenee, hundreds of the first people here have been thrust aeido, society has been controlled by a close Administration mule, andzono were admitted into the charmed olrole who would not worship the Administration and its ora cles. I havomore than ones called attention to the treatment extended by Hr. Ruchanan and Wimp porters to the Republican members of Congress— to his refusal to invite them, according le' an honored usage, to the White House, and to the social war waged upon Judge Douglas and hie friends—all of which clearly prepared the way for the scenes which marked the opening of the Dist session of Congress. This ex3lusive spirit exhi bitod towards the Representatives of the people in the National Legislature was manifested against hundreds of the oldest and most respeotablo dents here. Now, when all is to bo ehangtl, and those who aided the 0. P. P. and his await in his narrow proscription, social and political, are compelled to retire to their own homes North and South, little regret will be• expressed by the resi dent population ; and if the President determines to close his career in or near Washington, he may have an opportunity of suffering, if not by an imi tation of his Own conduct to others, at least by such contrast to this conduct on the part of his truceos sore in °Moo, as will convince him of the truth of the old adage, that "curses, like young °Wakens. alwaya come home to roost " Many of those who havebasked in the sunshine of his favor and have delighted in assist him in his social crusade against individuals, will personify be taught the lesson which they so muoh aided in teaching others. Tho flea t interesting question is how will thel Senate stand after the 4th of March neat. Ken tuoky has elected John C. Breckinridge, Secession Democrat, In place of John J.

It lento° probable that an opposition Demo untie Senator, probably Pierre Soule, will be elected from:DOutslana, in place of John Slidell, Secession Democrat. With those changes and cal culations, the new Senate will stand as follows : Maine New Rampahlre 2 _.

If Kan sas is admitted, this will probably increase the Republican column to twenty-nine. Much will depend upon the Course of Douglas and Kennedy, and the result of the Oregon eleotion. The Conststutton of this (Senday) morning con- Balsa a comparatively moderato article, an which, anticipating election of Linooln, it congratu lates itself that any, mischievous objects that he and: Ma party may have in view will be defeated by the probability that ',bah the house and th e Senate will be arrayed against his Administration. From proaent appoaranoes, however, the belanee of power will be hold by the friends of Stephen A. Douglas, at least in the Reuse. The Constitu tion siys that the Republicans can only secure the Rouse by a iontztion with the friends of Judge Douglas or Bell, and it deplores such a " coalition" as a gross " outrage upon decency," forgetting that the friends of Breokinridge, all over the free States, have themselves voted with the Republicans in order to defeat the regular Douglas Democracy. How can Judge Douglas and his supporters in Congress unite with Seceders and Diranlimista in canons? What honor, eon. aisteney, bremfety would „there be in such a "co alition" after having been insulted and betrayed by those very Seceders and Disunionists? These met( will certainly not trust themselves to the tender mercies of the Administration, particularly now that the sword is drawn upon them as the authors of the probable election of Abraham Lin coln. OCCASIONAL. 'ACADIMY OF Mono —Nothing has transpired relative to the sudden break-up of the opera troupe here. The Sunday Dispatch, speaking of the Prince's night, acy e : u The managers undoubtedly pocketed six thousand dollars by the operation, and as it. is probable they managed to humbug the public by keel ing back tickets which ware put in the hands of their agents and speculators for sale at high prices, probably from eight to ten thousand dollars went into the operatic trearury. This great haul seems to have overjoyed the managers so much that they deemed it host to disband the com pany, or go book to New York, or to run off with the assets." It adds, endorsing a suggestion we have frequently made, " Our Academy of Music ought to be a credit to the city, and an attraction to strangers. Wo should have our own opera company, and could have it, if the stockholders were inclined to be liberal with a manager who would keep the !dose open with a good company. But they are more intent upon getting six per cent. for their money, and free admissions also, than -doing anything for the encouragement of music and the substantial good of Philadelphia." Tho Sunday Transcript also speaks out. It says, "We want an opera of our own. Why does not Stra kosoh, so well liked here, get the direotora to give him the house at a moderate rent, and then form a troupe especially for Philadelphia? Wo really do not want the endorsement of Now York on our artists. The first season here, with Gazzanigil, Brignoli, Amodio, ete., wee certainly the most'en joyable, though we have had greater prime donne than G azzaniga. The star system is bad, even in opera. The Parisian public. vies satisfied ter ten years with the same four artists—Nubini,Lableche, Oren, and Tamborini. So would Philadelphia get necuatomed to the artists, .their style, and their acting, and prefer them to a perpetual change. Of .course, we could not expect four such artists; but then Philadelphia is not Paris ; besides, in Europe 1 1 such artists as those glorious four are not to be found. We have hereizaterials for es good an opera as they have at any theatre in Europe. Why, then, should the doors of tho Academy be cloned ?" The Even tug Journal throws out a good practical idea. It says We have Academy' of Music, but the public has not yet had any evidence that. it is doing any thing as an Academy. If we had a well-drilled chorus and orchestra of our own, we could always get leading artists in abundance. We might be independent of the New York managers, and then when they did come, they would keep their word, but so long as we are wholly at their mercy how can we hope for any better treatment than we have just enjoyed? We certainly have musical talent and musical appreciation enough, but these spas media reasons only gratify a morbid craving for excitement." There seems to be general sympa thy for Mr. Straker* and a prevalent idea that if he, disconnected from Ullman, were to have di reetion of the opera hero, it would give public sa. tisfaction. ARCH-STREET THEATEE.--lho [programme for this week is capital. It includes a combination of "The Royalist," and Coyno's now play "The Merchant and-his Clerks." We noticed both of them on Saturday, and need only repeat that the company at the Arch is decidedly the beat, not only in this city, bat In the Union, with the excep tion of that at Wank's, In New York. In their respective linos Mr. Wheatley and Mr. Clarke have no equals.

The London correspondent of the Now York Times says: It would scarcely have looked decent, in our po sition , to have allowed advertisements in our newspapers for volunteers in an insurgent (muse ; so the managers of the affair called it an " exour don to Sicily," and so it primed current. What it really was, was, of course; well understood. The cause was popular. The reoruits wore numerous, end when I went to the head office in Ballabury. street Strand, some three weeks ago, about 800 I had joined. went into a room fitted like an of floe, with desks and chairs; it was filled with men lounging about, smelting and chatting. A clerk Sat at a desk, taking ; down the names of recruits, and receiving stibsoriptious. A finer body of men I never Serr—loose, careless, dare-devil sort of fellows, up_ to anything, and to be appalled by nothing. The captain, an Irishman, named Win shin, stood considerably above six feet, and was a splendid specimen ofmtnhood. They had been so successful in their recruiting that they wore growing particular. While I was there a delicate looking young man came in and offered himself as a volunteer. But they, wouldn't have him; told him bluntly that his health did not seem Orst.rate ; that they had no roma for hospital-mates; in plain terms, that he would not do. They wore men in the prime of life, and ready for anything, but they had very little IoBollioeS, and the expedition hung fire for some time. At length, on Sunday morning last, the first batch of volunteers started from Gravesend, in a steamer called the Molauro, which had been chartered for them. About 250 sailed In her. all in tip-top spirits. There aro all kinds of men in this wild orew—lrish Adventurers who have anent their patrimony, Buglish hell-rakes who have done ditto, ex.a,rmyoffieers who found a military life too costly for their small - purses, a few loungers—men with a - couple of hundred a year, who have run through all the varied excitements of a London life, who have not money enough for the higher pleasures, and who are going, literally for the sake of killing their worst enemy, Time. THAOKEILAY ON NEONO MINSTRELBY.—Mr. Thaokeray thus speaks of the performances of an American company of Ethiopian minstrels who were recently in England " I heard a humorist balladist, a minstrel with wool on his head,'and an ultra Ethiopian complexion, who performed a negro ballad that I confess moistened,these spec. tadles in the most unexpeoted manner.

THE FORGED ELECTION RETURNS HEARING BEFORE THE RECORDER WM. BYEBLY BOUND OVER TO ANSWER In Saturday's Press we stated that Wm. Byerly, the return judge of the Fourth ward, had been arrosted upon a warrant issued by Recorder Emu, charglig him with presenting, at the meeting of the Return Judges on Friday, a forged copy of the returns of the election in the Fourth ward, which gave the election of Congressman from the First dieted to John M. Butler, Republican, instead of Win. E. Lehman, Democrat, who was . legally elected, according to the duplicate returns filed in the office of the Prothonotary of the Court of Com. mon Pleas of ter the election. The moused had a hearing on Saturday mofn ing, before the Recorder. The office was crowded to suffocation wits persona anxious to hear the 1 proceedings. District Attorney Mann appeared for the Com monwealth, and Messrs Hirst and Webster were present as private counsel for Mr. Lehman, but they took no part in the proceedings. -On the part 'of Mr. Byerly, Mr. L C. Cassidy appeared. First the judges of the precincts of the Fourth ward were examined (except in the Fourth pre cinct, represented by Mr. Byerly ) They all testified that they attended the meet ing of the judges of the ward, at the house of Mr. MoDonougn, Sixth street, below Shippen, the morning after the election. At this meeting Mr. Byerly was selected as return judge to the general meeting to be held on Friday. AU the officers had kept a memorandum of the vote in their pre• dna, and they produced them before the Recorder. An officer of the Common Pleas produced the book containing the precinct returns for the Fourth' ward—the papers from which Mr. Lehman, as well as the reporters , took their vote. And these returns, which are signed •by the officers of the election, correspond with their memorandum pro ducted at the hearing. These two comparing in:this way, the fraud must be traced elsewhere. Mr. Parker, the chairmen of the meeting of the return judges, was swoon, and ordered by the District Attorney to open the bundle of returns in bis possession, and exhibit the return made by Mr. Byerly for the Fourth ward. At first Mr. Parker objected to this; as the papers had been left in his custody for safe keep ing, and he had them under seal. Mr. Mann informed him that the law demanded them, and then saying something about somebody' not being gentlemanly in asking for the papers, be broke the seal and produced the return about which there had been so much trouble. . It was in the same condition as when handed in by Mr. Byerly, except that the counsel for Mr. Lehman had visited the house of Mr. Parker and after examining the paper, had marked it foriden tification. The paper is regularly drawn up, with the sig natures of the ton precinct judges added. The error alleged on the part of Mr. Lehman oan be understood by the following table, whtoh gives the true and forged returns : =MEM Lehmln. Butaq. Hil 2g.

Sped was positive that his name, as there written, was a forgery. That was not like the paper he signed, as ho was the first to sign, in the genuine, after plaoing " Elva, pre eifiel." After his own name he wrote the list down to the Tenth preoinot, for the oonvenienee of the judges who might not appear in regular order when signing. In the return presented by Mr. Byorly, Mr. Spool said the figures were not his own. Mr. 4801 also testified to a oonveraatlon with Mrs. Dyerly. She gala that the papers bed not boon oat of her possession. She placed them on the mantel. During the afternoon the left the honae on a visit, leaving in the house a Mr. Scanlan and. a small boy. When she returned the papers were still On the mantel. ' gOeo. V. Moore, Felix Donnelly, Philip Dougherty. Mr. Barnes, and Mr. Thompson testified positively that these signatures, as attached to Mr. Byorly's return, were forgeries: Mr. Davie, one of theladges, was not positive in regard to the matter, as it looked similar. Mr. Leckie, another of the judges, testified that it we., his signature, and he stuck to it like a good fellow, although Mr. Mann nailed his attention to the foot that the name was spelled Leckie, and alSo that the figures were not the same as on the return filed with the Prothonotary. Mr. Lehman was now sworn, and he testified as follows : In the zmighborhood of eight o'clock on Wednesday, the morning after the eleotion, I - went to the Prothonotary's offioe, and secured a place beside Mr. Kn.ight, for the purpose of examining the returns for the First Congressional district. I waited until every precinekteame in, and Mr. Knight was particular in askiltg each officer, " Are these the offloial papers?" . I carefully examined the returns with Mr, Knight, and , we corrected each other in any little inaacnraoiffst.. I there made a copy of the vote, and in thdFoullth ward I had a majority of 555 votes. °nevi' my clerks then eo• pied this paper, and I enclosed it in a letter to Mr. Byerly, with the request that he Would sot as my friend, an I verify any mistakes that might occur in the general return. A few minutes before the meeting of the return judges, on Friday, I met Mr. Byerly at Sixth and Chestnut, and asked him if he bad the paper I had sent to him, and he said yea; and in response to, my wish that 'he would act as lay friend, he agreekto do so. I then wont to the meeting, and there hew Mr. Byerly hand In the forged returns. In answer to a question on cross. examination, Mr. Lehman Dud that he was induced to ask Mr. Byerly to act for him, es he heard it said that he was to be " counted out." , Mr. L. then detailed the proceedings before the judges as given , above. The evidence here closed, and. Mr. Mann, in summing up, made a speech, declaring his detesta tion of the party. whoever ho might be, who was guilty of this substitution of one paper for another, and the forgery of the names It was an import ant matter not only to the citizens of this Common wealth, but of the whole country, as upon the vote in Congress of one man might depend the election of a Speaker, ho. The duty of all good men, irre spective of party, was to assist in ferreting out and bringing to justice the individuals guilty of this wrong. Mr. Mann could not believe that Mr. Byorly had actually done this thing, but as an act of justice to him ho should have an opportunity of jpreseuting his defence to a court and jury.. In the meanwhile, every exertion , should bo made to discover the parties concerned, and Mr. Mann pledged himself, se an °Meer of the Com monwealth and as a citizen, to lend his aid to the work. Mr. Cassidy said ho was inotruoted to state that Mr. Byerly had a full and complete defence to the charge. ' The Recorder held the accused in $1,500 to an raver at the present term of the court. Immediately after the fraud was discovered, Mr. Lehman forwarded to Governor Packer a state ment of the whole we, with the repeat that the proclamation of Mr. Butler's election should be delayed for the present. Under our present election laws, two returns are forwarded to the Governor, the one from the re• turn judges, and the other from the Prothonotary of the Common Pleas AS these returns will not agree, the Governor will probably consider himself justified hu withholding for the present the °erg oato to Mr. Butler which is authorized to be given under the broad seal of the Commonwealth. • FIRM ON SATURDAY . NIGHT—A WOMAN Donlan.—About 10 o'clock on Saturday night, a flro broke out in the feed store of Charles IL Hun• tor, at the corner of Lancaster avenue and Market street, West Philadelphia. The upper part of the building was accepted as the Democratic Head quarters of the ward. The flames spread with groat rapidity, and the whole establiahment was destroyed The conflagration oausod a very great light, which was seen from all parts of the oity. A portion of the premises was used in a dwelling house by Mr. Hunter and family. The majority of the occupants were removed in safety, and it was supposed that all the inmates had escaped. It unfortunately happened that in the excitement and confusion an old lady was forgotten. She was rich and unable to remove, and after the' building was encompassed with flames her situation was re membered. Mr. William B Frits, of the Schuylkill Hose Company, with tiomeether members of the same, with groat daring, entered the building and reach ed the second story through smoke and flame. Mr. Fritz rescued the lady, took her to the front win dow, and she was taken down the ladder. She woe conveyed to the pollee station-honae of the Twenty-fourth ward, bat wee so mach injured by suffocation and the tiamea that she died bofore she reached that plane. The deceased was apparently about fifty-fire years of age. PAYING A BIT ON THE RESULT OF THE LATE ELECTION.—On Saturday, at noon, Chestnut street was exalted at a novel affair, resulting from the recent election. Thomas 11. Leabourn, ono of the assessors of the Second ward . , made a bet with another gentleman, the conditions of which wore that the loser should •wheel a load of wood from the Delaware to the Schuylkill, along Chestnut street. Thomas, being the losing party, mounted a strap over his shoulder, and, attaching it to a wheelbarrow, loaded with sawed wood, wheeled it from Chestnut-street wharf, on the Delaware, to Chestnut-street wharf, Schuylkill. The affair cre ated much amusement along the fashionable tho roughfare of our city. RECOVERY OP THE BODY OF A SUPPOSED SUICIDE —On Saturday the body of a man, apps. really about sixty years of age, was found in the Delaware, opposite Riel3mond. There was a satchel filled with mod about the neck of the de ceaSed.

Meeting at the suauglas Headquarters. ADDRIIBB BY THX'HOIt, IGIRDRICH B. WRIGHT. On Saturday evening, the Headquarters of the Douglas Club, Fifth and Chestnut streets, was crowded to overflowing by the frienda of non-in tervention. to hear an address by the lion. Hen drick 13. Wright, of Lucerne county. The appearance of this veteran in the Demo cretin ranks was greeted with cheering, and in addressing the assemblage he said be eame for ward under somewhat embarrassing circumstances as regarded the interests and welfare of the Do i meeratio party. The day after the election he bad picked up the New York Herald, and a leading editorial commenced in this wise : Pennsylvania has spoiren—Pennsylvania is lost." Lest! Only temporarily. (Applause. We have been defeated, we may be dismayed; but to thy that we are van- quished is to give the lie to the history of the past. The Opposition may dampen, temporarily, our ar dor, but it is not in their power to destroy the De mocratic, principles which lie at the foundation of this Government. (Applause.] I have bean for many yeara connected with the politics of Pennsylvania. For many years I have taken an active part in all the deliberations of the Democracy, and I have'been active in promoting the successor Demooratio principles. I remember the campaign in 1840, when there were the same appeala to the passions and prejudices of the people R 8 now, and the Democracy wore defeated. Bat the victory of the Opposition was temporary, and two years hadmot rolled by before that glen ens banner waved again in triumph [Applause.] And I say to-night, that two years will not pass over before these eagles, that have been taken from us, shall be restored to us. (Applause. j Upon whatprineiples have the Opposition carried this campaign? what have been the great issues involved? Has it been the tariff? Certainly not, for the Democracy of Pensylvania have always recognized the need of protection to her industrial interests. Has it been by principles which will not stand the examination and scrutiny of time ? No question seems to have beelPinyolved, except it may be that of the right of the black man to be • placed on an equality' with the white race, and, if so, theylotory wilt be a demob in the merits of the party before many months. [Applause.) In 1840, the campaign of the Opposition was ear ried on without argument. They made their ap peal then to the same passions and prejudices of men, by parading with their cider barrels and their log cabins, and all those things calculated to take the public eye, but not effect the public mind. So it la now. Is there any principle 14 a cape and cap? It is a dumb display, which' has no meaning, no argument, and no force, and it must pass away when the second sober thought of the people shall come, while theDemoaratio party will survive forever. Applause.] The principle of our party was an immortal one—the great principle of non-intervention by Congress in the affairs of the "people of-the States and Territories. If there is any question that will stand the test of time, it i 8 that toe people of the Territories have the same asperity for self-govern ment as the people of the States. Douglas, as the embodiment of that principle, is worthy of support, and it will eventually rally around him all the people of this country. Jackson at one time was vitt:fled and abused, yet the people rallied to his support, as they will to that of Stephen A. Douglas. [Applause. J He may be defeated, but it will be through the machinations of James Bnehanan—a man around whom the Democracy rallied in 1855, and raised to the Presidential chair. The speaker then reviewed the history of the Dsmocratie Conventions for the past twelve years, and preyed that the doctrine of non-intervention was recognized in all the platforms adopted during that time. The doctrine was as correct now as when Cass, Pierce, and Buchanan gave in their adhesion to it; Mr. Wright urged his hearers not -to be dis couraged. In the coming election let the party go forward, and it might be to victor/. (APPicuils In this city thirty-eight thousand cast their votes for the Demooratio candidate for Governor. Let these mon stand together, and the influence which they would exert would bring about a political re surrection sooner than the most timid could expect. Let each man stand Arm and vote for pritteli lee, no matter what the result. Mr. Wright promised to go to Lucerne eounty, and there talk as he bad not talked before, and he would bring haek five hundred votes which had been east for Curtin. (Applause. _ • The meeting th en adjourned with cheers for Mr. Douglas. Republican Meeting at the Wigwam. Butler. Xing 69 16 131 ra SPEECH BY SHE HON. ALEXANDER K. H'CLIDIE . . ,_. . .. . Oa Saturday evening, a well-attended Republi can meeting was held at the Wigwam, North Sixth street, above Brown. Among the audience was a number of ladies. General James Irvin, of Cen tre county, presided, who introduced, as the first speaker, the Hon- Alexander if. McClure, Chair man of the People's State Committee. Mr. McClure add the Keystone State hid just spoken in a manner which bad done her great credit When Pennsylvania thundered, the Pre sidential contest was settled, and the question of free labor and free trade was forever set at rest. He rejoiced at the recent triumph. He rejoiced, not because a single man bad obtained an Moe, nor because any set of men had been elevated to power. But it was because a triumph had been achieved—a triumph that will bring gladnesolo every home in Pennsylvania. It will strengthen every arm and 'quicken the impulses of the work— ing classes. The' interpretation of this victory is; that here are a people who have rid themeelved of a policy which was calculated to ruin our State. This triumph teaches us that the doctrines of Tree - trade are wrong, absolutely wrong., It- teaches, furthermore, that - 3h. time - has come when a - prostituted- , Administration—an Administration' that has stricken at the very foundatiiiksf our prosperity—la falling to the dust. - - -4,,, He rejoiced that Col. Curtin wee- eleetest. , :dife had known him well. From him he lbarrAd the first lessons of politica. He knew that Col. Curtin would be an honor to the State, whose Gel:Amato- Hal chair be will so ably adorn. Who is not now proud of Col. Cartbea election? Every_ honest Pennsylvanian - hag a right to be protid. M i r Ail tin has declared his principles alike to erve in the Commonwealth. He never concealed his political preferences. Be did not hesitate to say, "I am for Lincoln " [Applause.] Be has met the people face to face, and has defended their rights nobly and well. Me has been admirably re warded. A majority has been given him which places beyond a doubt the election of our atandard , bearer, Abraham Lincoln. In thiftentest, we have been- moved by a love, not for one emotion only, but for every section of the country. Mr. McClure criticised the attempted " fusion " of the Ball Union-savers,Breokinridge disunionist?, and Douglas squatters, for the purpose of defeat ' ing Onitin. Thole whole object was to "defeat I Lincoln." Pow Rio Ay they had succeeded! jAp plause„l lie eras particularly severe upon the friends of Bell and Everett. 'These duped creatures he pi tied, because they have been sadly betrayed. They entered the field for the purpose of defeating Liu colnism. The election of Tuesday shows that they were made only the instruments for tbo election of the People's candidates Some of them are now beginning to perceive the folly of their course. Those who had voted for Curtin will certainly vote for Lincoln, and hundreds who voted for Foster in tend also to vote for Lincoln. He respected an honest Bell man for preferring his candidate to . Lincoln for the Presidency. Every man has preferences. Yet when an honest man finds his ty coming over into the bosom of free trade # d disunionism, it is time to give up the man 1. whom he desires to see elevated, and put in power a statesman of equal talent aid ability, from whom no! danger can be expected. The Belt - men at Reading, the other day, went so far as to silk the Democracy, that they might, in cominon with theta,' be allowed to die together. The Democracy spurn ed the overtures, and the Bell maniere saddenedat heart. 1:1WM;f1 Rl/1 General Foster had anted to the to secure his own election. and " fare of the Democratic party. in attempting to put forward the iikika in favor of protection. Mr. MoC are that Philadelphia bad been true to heriaiate:lo interests, and hoped that in November sbeliould , speak in thunder tones in favor of Abe Lincoln. The city is now in sympathy with the State, and when Pennsylvania rolls op 40,000 for Lincoln, Philadelphia will give 10,000. (Applause.) He did not mistake when be said that Philadelphia, in November, will rend a thrill of joy throughout the State, and stir up the channels of her industry. The interests of labor are harmonious. When you strike at Philadelphia, you strike at Pennsylvania. When you touch a vital part in the body, you touch every part. What i s it that has made the iron horse rush ant of your oily into the interior of your State? What has built -up your corn. merle? What has constructed your ships and your railroads? It has been the sturdy arms of the people. The working classes have done It, and are they not to ho rewarded? Be believed they would be, and therefore he urged his hearers to keep up the fires of their enthusiasm. The contest is worthy of being fought out Its MOWS will give new life to the Government. It will erect free homes where deserts- now exist. It will teach the men who ask eiderby side with the Southern slave that the mission of free „govern ment is to elevate the laborer and the mechanic. We would not invade Bontbern rights, and the man who affirms that it is the mission of the Republi can party to make war upon the South states what he knows in his heart to be felon. [Applause J This Government was made for free mon, and it is our policy to keep the land of the West free from the desolating tread of slavery. The triumph of the Republican party will be 'a death-blow to Northern Abolitionism. It will teach men who oroolaim that " the Constitution is a league with hell" that they have no claim upon honest men. and that they must be brought into the reins of subjection. It will Tao a triumph that will give a renewed impulse to the prosperity of the nation, and plaao its credit above a doubt. This party will soon turn from power an Administration that has forever disgraced the nation in the sight of the world. 4he people have now determined that their next President shall be chosen by a popular verdict, and that verdict be given for Abraham Lincoln. (Applause.] That honest statesman will teach the whole nation that what is good for one class is good for another. lie will deal oat justice to the North and justice to the South. Re will not spare the offender, nor bo lenient to one where he to severe to another. Mr. MoClute concluded amid prolonged cheer ing. Isaac J. Neal was the next speaker. Ile came forward on the present ocoaxion, not as a People's man, not as a Republican, but as a pure Democrat, a Democrat, however, of a different school from those of the present day. The .Republican party was the only true Democratio party of the country. He congratulated his audience on the sucoess of Curtin. lie bad spoken during the canvass many times in favor of the gallant standard-bearer of the People's party. It was now time to talk for Lin coln. [Applause ] He then eulogised the oharao ter of honest Abe, and predicted a happy termina tion of the present misrule at Washington, under his Administration. He believed there was not a shadow of a doubt as to his election. He then pro ceeded to dismiss the principles of tho party, and throughout was greeted with hearty outbursts of applause. Other gentleman followed, and the meeting ad journed at a late hour SBERNADE TO 31'CLURE About ll o'clock, a number of the friends of Mr. McClure, accompanied by the Pennsylvania Cornet Band, serenaded Mn McClure, at. the Girard Rouse. Re made a short areech from the balcony, declaring that the result of the eleotion of Curtin was the precursor of the election of Lincoln in no vember., Re was loudly applauded. Messrs. Cof fey, Goforth, and others made short addresses.
