'Upon the ability of Aga . tr la to fight now mainly rests the great qriestion of peace or war In Europe. ' upon her pecuniary ability, - • There is no *Mowing whit foolish attempts may be made by_the Emperor -Of Austria, in heriting all the obstinacy and pride of his race, to regain Lombardy, to restore the run away Grand-Dukes, to bolster up the Papal sovereignty, arid, perhaps, to restore the fugi. Jive Bing of .Naples. 4 But want of money is likely tebe a great linpediment to all, or any, of these attempts. The finances of the Aus trian Empire, are in a dreadild:state of confti ken; and these complications have brought it next door to bankruptcy. - Rernseumn and Ramo are not likely, under such Omuta. itarices, to 'lend any more money to Austria. Should - the Empire break up, which le proba ble', enough, the *great money-lenders may have to whistle for their debt. Between 1848 and 1868 Austria paid in taxa tion 800,000,000 florins, (that is, about $400,- 000,000,) more thie it did in the ten years between 1888 and 1848. Besides, the national debt of Austria, notwithstanding this vat ex seas •expenditure, Is, 1,806,000,000 florins ($660,000,000) more than it was in 1848, and State, dotimins (including railroads) to the amount of $60,000,000 were sold within the flame period. 'At present, supposing that GAILIBALDI does not attack Venetia or Dalma tia; and that Hungary does not rise in rebel lion—and it needs but the signal from KOSSUTH to do it—the deficit in the Austrian revenue 1661 'is calculated at $19;600,000, and at $12,500,000 in the following year. To mend matters,_it turns out, according to the official report of the Exchequer Committee of Aus tria, frommtileh we glean these statistics, that the'• extraordinary war contribution, which amounts to 82,000,000 florins ($16,000,000), .figures as part of, the. revenue in the Budget for 1861, but the tax is so exceedingly onerous that it cannot long be levied. The Austrian prospect for the Mare, even df peace be preserved—about the most doubt ful contingency in' the world—is dark indeed. The Committee% of opinion that the Govern ment cannot, for the time being, calculate on any increase in the revenue, as a great part of the population of the Empire is impoverished. As no further retrenchments can at present be made in the different ministries, the only way of diminishing the burden which weighs so heavily on' the State is, « to reduce the in terest on the National Debt by means of finan cial operations based on this principles of free, will (freittilligked) and inviolability of the, obligations which have been entered into by the State." The Report concludes with the remark that a satisfactory arrangement of the internal affairs of the empire, and the consequent reiteration of confidence, will do 'much towards the restoration of the mutton credit' of Austria, ic for it must be acknow ledged," says the Committee, gi that the pre sent organization of the empire has shaken 'rather than strengthened the confidence of the public in its stability." The excess of paper currency in Austria causes the prices of, the necessaries of life to rise. In this country, at one period, as in France with the paper assignati of the Reign of Terror, Continental paper money was of ihr less vidtte than specie. In Austria, though bank-notes - and silver are of the same nominal value, silver is at 84 per cent. premium. The stock of the National Loan, issued at 95, is unsaleable at 78. What capitalist will assist a State which .i situated thus, and sinking deeper and deeper ih the quagmire of hope less debt and mismanagement 7 •Austria may make a great effort to retain Venetia, but she would act more wisely in pealing With It at a profit than having It wrest ed from her. As a seaport, Venice is of far less; value-to' Austria than Triesto. VICTOR ,Euktrinet is in such good credit with the great European money-lords that he could ireatilly borrow as much cash in hand as Ans. aria could. desire. iffeanwhile, Austria holds ',Venetia with a tight rein. To-morrow, we "shall publish a transintion of the infamous proclamation Seined in Venice, a few months ago, by order of the Austrian Emperor, the tone and details 'of which are worse than Na- no or Trauma ever sanctioned in their most base and flagitious reigns: New York `Legislation. In the musical drama of Rob Roy, ono of the Brill& officers engaged' in the pursuit of the renowned, Scottish, outlaw amuses him self by singing that England mss boast of Bolin Mood. Who wag his eanntry'n pride ending, Bat illeotland has a thief as geed.' - She has—she hair,-her own Rob R 01." 430, when in Philadelphia attention is called to cases of municipal miseianagement or corrap lion;we feel that we are' far surpassed by some of the ruling spirits of New York city, and when our State Legislature commits any particularly 'flagrant outrage, we have, at least the sat's faction of knowing that it will etill_be eclipsed by the Legislature of NeW Yolk. She always has a ',it thief as good," or a little better than any specimen the soil , of Pennsylvania can produce.' The latest example of bungling 'New York legislation, is presented in the modification of her laws for the punishment of murder in the first degree, Which have been so amended that it is doubtful whether any legal pinistaitent whatever On now be inflicted for this most horrible of crimes. The Grand Jury ,of New York city, on the Nth of October, re ported that: "Agreeably to the charge of the court, the Grand Jury have examined the law enacted by the last Legislature on the subject of the death penalty, and they. deem it 'their duty to invite public attention to the de fective and ambiguous phraseology of that act. It is -so imperfect as to give rise to grave doubts in the minds of judges of our highest 'courts, whether, 'under its provisions, any punishment whatever can be legally inflicted in this State for the crime of murder in the first degree. It is obviously the intent el the act to define the mode of punishment for mur der, but in the carelessness of 'hasty legisla tion,the definition is implied rather than ex pressed, and it is of the utmost importance to the interests of society that at the earliest practicable moment the law should be revised and its meaning clearly set forth." It is scarcely possible to conceive of amore dingerons and culpable piece of neglect on the part of legislators than that which is hero of ficially alluded to. The first duty of a go vernment is to provide for the security of its citizens, and when it fails to authorize the punislunentofmurderers,even through neglect, naives the most dangerous and startling evi dence of its incompetency. Latest from Europe. Mr. Feuroir, agent for the Associated Press, has obliged us with the London Times of Octo. ber 8, received by the steamer New York. We learn from it that the Papal Government had relinquished the idea of defending the pro vinces of Frosinone and Volletri against the Sardinians, should they pass through them en route to Naples. This would leave Oivita Vecchia as the Only, province in which the Pope would make a stand. General Goren had hoisted the French flag at a distance o five miles from Rome. The Revolution was at the very gates of the Eternal City, but the Pope was resolved not to fly. The King of Sardinia was pressing Gann:taint to annex Sicily and Naples to Sardinia without delay. GAIIIIALDI WU gaining more victories near Ovum. A Strange Compliment. A correspondence from Perth, Hungary, tell us that during his recent official tour through Hungary, General Bendek, 'the im perial Governor, had a good °Octillion to see unmistakable signs of the spirit reigning in that country. Having arrived at Nagy- Roerbes, and visited the public institutions of that city, he invited a certain number of per sons to dinner. When the dessert came on, one of those guests, giving him an ancient battle-axe, said, fc General, I give you as keepsakOlhat ancient weapon ; it is one of those which were used, by the famous Black Regiment of our heroic Bing Mathias Ror vinus, when it stormed Vienna and expelled tile Emperor Ferdinand Ili, of iliepsdurg." The General made a bow, as if he did not un derstand the allusion, and accepted the gift with thanks.

Ex. Governor Wiokliffe and Hon. Pierre &nib, of Louisiana, and others who have formerly ranked with the fire eaters, now boldly declare upon the stump, that as the Dieunionista, under the banner of Mr. Breekin ridge, have broken up the Demooratio party by their action at Charleston and Baltimore, and sines they thereby have largely helped, if they have not certainly secured the triumph of the Republican party, so they must not be permitted to shrink from the responsibility they have brought upon them selves, and that as they have elevated Lincoln to the position of Chief Magistrate, en they must abide hie administration while it keeps within the clear letter of the law. Secretary Cobb, whose conversion to the Secs/don faith dates only to his appointment es a member of Mr. Buohartan's Ca binet, it is true, holds out to the confraternity in South Carolina and Alabama that Georgia will join in whatever scheme of madness they may project; but the news received here from influential in the Empire State of the South affords no foundation for the effectiveness of his ready offer. It is confidently predicted that in 1860, all in 1850, Georgia will frown down, with remorseless. contempt, all direct and covert attempts at dis union. Senator Toombs has felt the public ,palse of his State, and when asked who was to head a rebellion in came of Lincoln's election, rather despondingly replied that he would if he could get anything like a respectable number to follow him. I. am informed by, a gentleman this day arrived from New Orleans, that wherever he has been in the Southern Btateo, there is a fixed deter- ruination on the part of those who oppose the Breokinridgers to racist, at every hazard, any open act of disloyalty to the Thibm. South Carolina may proclaim that she will join herself to Ala bama if the latter take steps toward secession, but as there is between those two States the vast stretch of territory within' the , limits of Georgia, and inhabited by order. loving citizen's, it is fair to prelim that so impossible an undertaking will remain unaccomplished. And It is pertinent to state that upon the broad trouper of Pennsylvania avenue, during the present delightful sunshiny weather may be seen clerks from South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and other Southern States, and although they en tertain sentiments of the most combustible texture; and, like gunpowder, have only to be touched to go off with a plaits and a flash, yet they do not seem tole racked with any horrors of impending civil strife, nor, indeed, can the closest scrutiny detect upon their hate the faintest show of revolutionary cockades., hey good•humoredly admit that there is now no hope of Lincoln's defeat, and, contrary to general belief, do not permit any thought of serried hest/ fortifying the approaches to the capi tal to prevent hie inauguration, to interfere with the smiling complacency of their otiuou GUM ..4tg tiztatc. They still are of the United States, lind with no reluctant hand take their monthly pay from the collate of UnolefirMo. The Southern extremists are on a sore dilemma, and it will require 'all of their ingenuity to get them out of it. They =St do something, having roared so loudly in the index. I have no doubt as Southern Convention will be held, fashioned after the Southern commercial 'Conventions of year. past, and that delegates will be regularly ao credited to it from one or two States, and that volunteer delegates will represent the residue. There will be speeches of much fire and great length thundered forth to applauding audiences, by Yancey, and Spratt, and Rhett, and other agi tators, and resolutions will be passed, with con siderable flourish, that if the North does this, that, and the other thing, which no sane man can ever be expected to do, then—Heaven knows what ! Notwithstanding reports have not been made from the several Departments of the Government, the President is daily and hourly drilling the sen tences of his last annual nieesage to the two Houser of Congress. lam led to believe that it will be an elaborate defence of his Administration, intended not so much for this generation as for posterity. The Constitution provides that "he shall, from time to time, give to the Congress information of the state of the Union, and recommend to their , consideration each measures as he shall judge no. atom , and expedient." It will be interesting to learn what recommendation he will make with re -1 speed to the tariff bill, from the House, now before the Senate; what medicine he will prescribe for the treasury, now emaciated to a skeleton upon the meagre food of the present revenue ; what of his foreign and of his home policy, ho. I, may give you points on these topics hereafter. It is amusing to notice the applications that come from Republican politicians for Blue Brooke, containing full and accurate information of the patronage within the control of the President and hie Cabinet officers. if the early bird catches the worm, these cannot be denied because of laggard ness. It will be unpleasant news to aspirants for office under Lincoln to be informed that not a single copy can be had of the Blue Book except by the payment of $3.80 at the bookstores, of Wash ington, and that there are bat very few copies to be had at that price. Tbie expense may be saved, however, by consulting the copy in possession of each member of Congress. OCCABIONXI.: Letter hem 6•Kappa.t? (Corroopondenoe of The Proof.] Wesnixotort, Oct. 17, 1800 The ems/rim/ion of this morning contains a letter from the venerable friend of Andrew Jack son, Hon. Amos Kendall, which it publishes, to use its own words, "as en act of courtesy." The letter is sharp, pointed, and patriotic. Speaking of the dirty attacks made upon him by that pa per, Mr. Kendall says "Itis a higher aim then self.defencie or self.diatinoUon which' induces me' to resume my pen. * * Sir, it is a cad sight to see the organ of a Democratic Administration at tempting to establish the doctrine that it would in any event be a crime in the President to de fend the Constitution and enforce the laws of the United States constitutionally enacted. Disguise it as you will, your doctrine amounts to thin and nothing less. Already the peculiar organ of nullification in the South is recommending aeries eion while Mr. Buchanan is still in office, upon the assumption that he may not enforce the laws and defend the Constitution, whiob, by his official oath, ho is bound to do. Doubtless, the assump- Con is unwarranted, though justified by the tone of his aoknowledged organ." Speaking of the personal warfare made by the Constitution and the President upon the friends of Judge Douglas, Mr. Kendall rays : " In cot:minden, I implore you, and those who act with you, to abandon your denunciations of men with whom you must ultimately act in pre serving the Constitution and the State institutions, if they are to be preserved at all. Do not further verify the old maxim that' Whom God intends to destroy he if nit makes mad.' * * Ia the newfangled dogma on which the Charleston Con vention split, or any theoretioal claim to a right of seeeelion, of more importance than the preser vation of the Union, the Constitution, the peace, the happiness, the prosperity, and the glory of our common country, hitherto unequalled by those of any other people on the face of the earth? 4 in 14 Any man who thinks this Union can be Deaoefully broken up, er, If it could, that peace could always be maintained between its fragmoi ta, abuts his eyes to the events of our own ago, and Is deaf to the lessons of history." Governor Conway's (of Arkansas) assertion, that millions of British gold are now In the hands of Southern and Northern agitators, has created a great deal of surprise in this city. That Great Britain hates this Union, and would hail a disso lution of the same with pleasure, as it would enable her to import her iron and other manu factures free of duty into the Southern States, is well known. Without the Union we are nothing. KAPPA. Letter from New York. I C 011081101 1 ,4411013 of The Pressa Naw Yonx, Ootober 17, 7800 Our people are still talking about the late ball to the Prince, with its ostentatious magnificence and its failure. Young New York is in a sneer, and laughs consumedly at the sexagenarian dancing masters who controlled the affair. Inthis they are joined by the newspapers, the Herald and Times both being saroastio over the "Beau Nash at Sixty," as the venerable Peter Cooper is irre verently denominated. It promises to be the staple of the season's jokes. Mist Josephine G. Lyon, the young lady who attempted to commit outride at 221 West Thirty. sixth street, a few weeks ago, by shooting herself with a pistol, Is pronounoed convalescent. Her recovery is most remarkable, considering the na ture of the wound, and gre at credit is due to her mediae! attendants, Dm Burdick and Carnochen, for their unremitting attentions in her behalf. Jo sephine, I am happy to state. hoe got over her foolish fano) , for committing suicide, and says she will never attempt to do away with her life again. She seems in pretty good spirits now, and, judging from her appearance, one would suppose that She would be the last person in the world to court a suicide's grave.

Of over a hundred thousand people n upon Kansas soil six months ago, at least one-fourth or one-third have loft ; of the remainder it is safe to say that forty thousand at this moment see nothing but exodus or starva tion at the end of the sixty days now just before them' from ten to twenty thousand look with only despairing eyes upon November ; thousands cannot subsist a month longer unaided; other thousands are living upon the little whioh their neighbors prive themselves of to give to them—neighbors equally unfortunate, and with whom the starva tion is merely a questiOn of but a few days longer; while still other thousands, if not at once relieved, must perish from banger, or the diseases that fel low in its train.

He Argues the Abblition of the High School We gave our ideas yesterday of the individual whose name we have 'sited, ex-professor in the Central Rile School. 'We had no antipathy to Mr. Lojeane, and but reiterated the sentiment of nu merous informants, and all parties cognizant with the details of his nigh Wheel career. Lass evening this gentleman figured in a strange scene at Musioal Fund Ilan, mournful alike to !Genie of the High School and hie Own pest credit. lie was Announced as the deliverer of, a lecture upon " Popery " and " Conspiracies " in that in stitution. Had he confined himself to' the topics in question his assertions might have been substan tiated, but he made an indlsoriminate assault upon a majority of the Board of Control, the High School Committee, the Faculty, and several pri vate gentlemen in ne manner eenneated with the legitimate arguments of the case. The audience consisted of one hundred and nine persons—to wit : forty-five men four females, and one hundred and nine bap,. chiefly pupils of the High School, and in the lower, divisions. The letter portion of the audience conducted themselves in a most disgrac:, fel Manner, whistling, stamping, and yelling. They openly insulted most of the gentlemen in the room, and greeted the frequent mention of names of estimable and aged gentlemen connected with the RIO School faculty with hisses and oontereptu cue shrieks. We have seldom witnessed scenes of such barefaced insolence and,disorder. There was no reverence, on behelf of the urchins in question, .far either a uthority or age to all colleges, their behavior wuold have entitled them to immediate expulsion The lecturer, whose position we regard rather as the effect of an erratic than a sober impulse, appeared to be about thirty years of age.' He has a pair of small black eyes, a good forehead, straight black hair, and an abundance of mous. taohe and whiskers. , lie fs short and handsomely built, and speaks broken English with fluency and vigor. We cannot give publicity to a greater por tion of the 'arguments he advanced, et we have no authority for their validity beyond his own assertion. They were grave charges against gen tlemen of trust and years, frequently irreverent and generally harsh. Most of . those detail private and eonfidentuil affairs, passing between the ex- Professor and his alleged enemies, of which the publlo have no right to be Informed. There - were three controllers preeent—blesers. Butem, MaGelia, and J. B Smith. Two of these voted for the die• missal of Profaner Lojeane. An ex-controller was also present, and two grammar-school prin cipals. The l ecturer commenced by etetiog that, seven months ago, he intended 'to " em brace into business life," but was prevented I by the friendship and plea of the principal of the Khoo" Mr. Ilomphill also begged him to with draw his resignation, and visited his wife to ask her influence to persuade him to withdraw it. [Hisses.] A man whose name is an insult bad asked "who was Remain Lujeane?" The ex- Professor proceeded to state his claims. Re was recommended by men of intelligence as a gentle man and a scholar. Snob words were pnbliehed in the City Tan, of which Fitzgerald was editor, and who charged Lojeane $2 50 for its insertion in his paper. One hundred 'of his pupils were pre p sent. If he had been a terror to hie boys, would I that number have been present? The daily Press had said that Lujeane stepped forward in tee Board of Control and said that his aheraater was better than Fitzgerald's. "Indeed," said tho Professor, I never dreamed that my character was so infamous as his." This country was one of liberty, and when Lujeane applied foi the German profenorehip, he did not ask himself I whether be was an Italian or a German. [Ap plause.] It was also said that Lujeane had been elected by the Young Men's Christian Association [Groans and applause ] That wee not so. [Great applause.] The lecturer here eulogized Geo. IL Stuart, Eeq., and road testimonials to hie character from Geo. R. Jones, Rev. Dr. Newton, Interpreter Davis, and others. These testimonials were written before Professor Lujeane was elected. They were successively greeted by loud cries of "That's enough," etc,. Protestor Lojeane said that be also expected to be examined, but the Committee on Bigh School did not speak Dutch. [Derisive ehouteirava nigh School boys. Mr. Lujeane then mentioned the name of a gentleman connected with the faculty, which was hailed with three groans. The chair man of the nigh School Committee bad told the speaker that the successful candidate must eat the greatest number of pretzels and drink most beer. [Tremendous laughter and faint cheers.] Mr. Lojeane then reviewed the vote by which he was elected. [Cries of "Oh !" and great stamping of feet.) The gentleman foremost in putting him out (Mr. Leech) had expressed hie regret that ho did not vote for Lujeane. [The nigh School boys here began' to throw peas.] The German profeseership had been reetored to get German votes, and it would be abolished again after the election. [Great laughter.] Mr. Lujeane here went into a long exposition of some private details, in very bad English wherein he mentioned such phrases as " dirty trick" and "miserable men." Several gentlemen's names and aotione were mentioned with much freedom provoking frequent laughter. The name of Prof. Maguire exalted load applause. Lujeane here went into a number of pirate de tails 01164 relative to religions questions, in which " Popery," eta., wetermentioned. We can not take up our columns with such gossip. The High School boys grew very noisy, and shouted vociferous " Ohs Lejenne then said thnt he was formerly a Democrat, and reverted, in hie singular way, to a reeesertion of the feet that he WAS the best teacher of German in the oily. He read ,from the Controller's report of April lest, in which he was mentioned as a capable end enterprising man, "Applause. I . ladr. Hamm's name being mentioned, some urchin called out, "Old Bumm " and "Bum mer."] Lujeane then said that Maguire's %slink against him came from his adherence to Henry, instead of Robbins. Lujeane then said that he was a Poo pie's party man. [lmmense applause.] Some statements of private confidence were then detailed, whieb were interrupted by coughs, excla mations, ,to. Bo was obliged to beckon silence with his hands. The armature of Messrs. Hollingsworth, Richey, Loral, Ac., were severely handled, and he alluded to several professors in an irreverential way. The lecture concluded at half past nine o °leek, with en immediate turning off of gee, and mingled cheers and groans. Serenade to Governor Curtin. ITS 18 TOO ILL TO SPEAK. Last evening the friends of Andrew G. Curtin, the Governor-elect of the State of Pennsylvania, assembled in largo numbers In front of the Girard House, for the purpose of serenading him. Miss 'eel; band was engaged, and opened with "h ail to the Chief," which was given in flue style. After this the band performed several other airs. There was considerable delay, and the crowd became im patient. The cause of the delay was the illness of Governor Curtin, who was confined to his bed. In response to repeated shouts, Mr. Charles Neal op peered on the balcony and introduced S. Newton Pettis, of Crawford county, Pa. Ile said : Re came from a county in the old 'Keystone State which, but a few years ago, gave a Demo cratic majority of about 950, but which, on the ninth of October. rolled up a majority of 2,099 for Andrew G. Outdo. rCheera.l The residents of that county were a reading and reflecting people, andhad been reared and educated in the genuine school of Jefferaonian Demeoraoy. It was with mingled feelings of pleasure and regret that he appeared, for the first time, before an assemblage of citizens of Philadelphia—of regret because it was his duty to apologize for the absence of their gallant stanuard-bearer, Andrew G. Curtin, and of pleasure that he was enabled, in that way, to nerve a friend who was devoted to Pennsylvania and to Pennsylvania's interests. lie had boon requested by Mr. Curtin to say, that, from indisposition on his part, ho was un able to be present to greet therm It was painful to him, from the fact that he desired an opportu nity of returning his heartfelt thanks to tho citi zone of Philadelphia, more than any other of this great Commonwealth, for the support that ho had reeolVed from the limo that he was first placed in nomination to the rue want which resulted in his triumphant election, anti the vindication of his principles Ile desired it, inasmuch as his time would Ma taken from them until the November election, at other points, and he had, therefore, hoped to have been able to ten der to them personally hie thanks for the support ho hod received at their hands. The speaker then again reverted to the politics of Crawford county, and maintained that the change in the majority of that district was the work of 31r. Buchanan and his corrupt Administration, lie concluded amid great applause. Loud cries were made for Judge Kelley, and that gentleman not being present, Joseph It. PM nlgen was introduced to the assemblage. Mr. Flenigen said he repeated with extreme re gret the announcement of Mr. Pettis, that their gallant standard-bearer, Andrew G. Curtin, woe " to-night upon his bask, inhis bed." Ile thanked God, however, that this affliotion had not come upon him until he had gone through the State, nod " carried the banner of the People's party from the Shores of the Delaware to Lake Brie." 2he groat principle of protection to American industry was involved in the present contest. The American, Whig, and People's party had contend ed for that principle for years past against the corrupt organization which was known in this country as the Locofoco party. Ito compared the latter to the Jacobin party, which caused the streets of Paris to run with blood. In 1350, the city of Philadelphia was placed under the ruin of the same Jacobin party, with Richard Vaux as Mayor, and, while the people supposed they were protected by policemen with stars upon their breasts, they were " surrounded by a set of thieves " Ile continued at length to denounce the administration of Mayor Vaux, and closed with an appeal to his hearers to rally with renewed energy for the contest in No camber, when their efforts would bo crowned by placing in the Presidential chair " Honest OM Abe," the rail•splittor of Illinois. William M. Bull. Eeq , next spoke and con gratulated his hearers upon the great triumph the party bad achieved in the election of Curtin, w hich was the forerunner of the election of Lin coln to the Presideney. Be urged them not to relax in their efforts, but to go to the polls on the tith of November, and do their beat to elect Old Abe, and, if necessary, they would match to Wash ington on the 4th of March to see him inaugu rated. (Cheers j Mr. Albright, of Carbon county, made a short address, depleting the joy felt in his county when the returns from Philadelphia were feceived. They expected that Poster would have got 10 000 majority in Philadelphia county, but when they learned it was only 2,000 their joy was unbounded. After this gentleman had concluded, there were loud cries for Kelley," "Mann," and other speak ers, and the crowd seemed unwilling to separate, but as 12 o'clock drew near they adjourned, with cheers for Curtin and Lincoln. MR. JOHN E. FOSTSR, the late clerk of Coroner Fenner, will be retained by (bb coroner' eleot, Mr. Conrad. Vlore trill be a mutual benefit in thia retention. THE FlOl/.1.1 BISDRIAL COLLEGB—Opp. LECTUR.ffi BY Di. RICYWELL COATZB--ENCOII. RAGING Itaimrs.--The question of the medical education of women bee been agitated of late, and most readers are cognisant of the foot that orta have been, made to establish upon a regular *olio glate basis a female medical institution. Pennsyl vania was the first State in the Union to inaugu rate the medioal education of women, by the char tains of the Female Medical College of this oily, in IMO. _ . Yesterday the eleventh annual session was com menced by a lecture from Dr. Eeynell Coates, Pro fessor of forgery. The college building stands back from Arab street, below Seventh: It boo the appearance of enterprise under difficulties, being apparently altered for its present purposes from a factory or ohnroh. Through a door on Arch street, a pathway of plank leade through an archway and yard, whence we mounted to the second story, and were ushered into a commodious room, of rather low ceiling, fitted up for ohimioal lecturer. The sante wore arranged like those of all labera tones, in a tier, the highest of which approximated uncomfortably toward the ceiling. An audience, chiefly of females, comprising about fifty persons, comfortably filled the room, and the Doctor read his lecture from the reflected light of two gas jets. The adjacent wall was covered with chemical elm. moots, symbols and equivalents, printed in stencil, and most of the fa:catty congregated on the forward bench. The seats were of plain hard wood, very straight in the backs, and consequently very soft and comfortable We mention these little ineldenta from a fore shadowing of the future importance of this medical college and a cognizance that its dawn of small things is to yield under the resolute industry of its corporators and managers, to a day of usefulness and pride. The other apartments, fitted up with the same economy, comprise a dissecting room, a museum, another lecture room, and several smal ler Apartments. The corporators are gentlemen of wealth and influence; the managers, ladies of talent and perseverance, and the faculty comprises, in every department, gentlemen of known attain ment and excellence. Two professors are females, Mrs. Cleveland and Preston. The former is now absent in Europe; engaged in studying the arrange ment of the Continental hospitals, with a view to opening a hospital for women in this city, females being debarred from attendance at our public hos pital clinics. Thirty-three thousand dollars, we believe, have been already subscribed; another year will probably witness the completion of the new auxiliary to woman's medical education. The college has at present, ample means of im parting thorough ' scientific instruction on most of the branches of medicine, the lectures and de monstrations being aided by en excellent =seam of papier-mache models, drawings, natural prep '- rations, mieroseepes ' and other apparatus. The enecesses of the institution have not been thus far commensurate with the labors of the faculty. Last year but one female graduated ; in previous years there have been as many as six. The lecture of Dr. Coates. yesterday, was plain, perspicuous, and . pointed. lie dimmed mile beginning the adage that women's sphere was home, and adverted to the opposition which greeted the inception of the col lege. It wee said that the avocations of a general practitioner would lead her into Improper expo sure, and subdue her native delicacy; that the depths of science are too intricate for her pene tration; that lii her timid hands the surgeon's knife is unsafe ; and, finally, that the heart of the mother and wife would be unnaturally hardened by the practice of surgery. The lecturer proceeded to combat these and other objections. Dr. Rash had maintained that .empirioism and medical imposition could be ar rested only by the universal teaohing of ',correct medical doctrines. In 1820 several ladies were students of obstetries in the Pennsylvania Hospital, regular attendants at lectures upon anatomy, materia medics, and pharmacy. They received oertificates 'of proficiency as,ntiraes, with the un derstanding that they could practice regularly when necessary. Miss Nightingale was referred to as the author ea medical work, a treatise upon nurszng. She had mingled in the bivouac , with powder-grimed soldiers, and yet remained with her delicacy and purity intatit. The present hostility to woman's professional medical education was not very extensive, and the lecturer contended not with its dignity % but its login. The city nurse was often exposed in the darkness and night, net less frequently than the female practitioner. There had been no com plaint on the former bead. Most of the female medic'sl pupils would study specialities; many would he wives of physicians and pharmaceutists, who-would- study the branch of obstetrics; others, the wives of manufacturers, planters, etc.. residing at a distanoe from medical aid; others, the teachers of youth. " This age," said the ector, " would have been happier had snob institutions been of earlier date."i The Doc- tor also combatted the idea that there was an in. delleaoy in the studies of anatomy and physiology. He cited the names of Mesdames Boom tied Ls ohapelle, to show that woman was not nerveless with the surgeon's knife. In all the minor du ties of surgery. and in manipulations that do not require the knife, the gentle band of an edudated female was preferable to that of man. The regular graduation would not actually ex tend the competition of incompetence or lessen the dignity of the diploma. The boasted diploma, of late deo wee degraded into a mere certificate of study, valued only from the" source and ap peoded names. The attempt to refuse professional fellowship to female physicians was indicative rather of Jack of courtesy than of an excess of self-respect. Dr. Coates then addressed the pupils and the audience. The medical opposition to the institu tion was sharply satirized, and the warmest ex precisions of encouragement and resolution ex pressed. THE Pi NROSE FERRY BRIDGE.—Tho citi zens of the southern portion of the Twenty-fourth ward and the lower portion of the First ward are strongly urging .npon Counoili the propriety of pure/lasing this bridge, and making it free for the public , . The bridge is a great convenience to this section of country, but the citizens consider it a hardship to be compelled •to pay tell, as it is not demanded for crossing any other bridge over the Schuylkill in this county. • Councils, in the early part of the present year, appropriated $lO,OO/0 for the purchase of piers and approaches fur the bridge at the Falls of fie/my/kill, and afterwards $25,000 more to rebuild it. The wants of the citizens of that locality demanded' this expenditure. The citizens of the lower districts consider their wants entitled to the same respectful considera tion from 0011D011{1 and, there Is justice in their de mand for a free bridge at this point. A sublont mittee of Councils bays visited the bridge, and it is miderdood that they will repot in favor of the prayer of the petitioners by recommending the re quired appropriation for its purchase. This matter interests not only those residing in the immediate locality, but citizens generally, as a drive through the Neck, and over into the Twenty fourth ward, and thence by the Darby road to the Afarket-street or Wire bridge, forms a great attraction during the spring, summer, and autumn menthe TEE PARADE squaring of thin lot of ground, in the roar of Moyamenaing Prison, has been commenced, the fence on the northern aide having been removed, and placed on a line with Wharton street, which will be the northern boundary of the equate. 'The Commis eioner of City Property, Mr. Christopher, has caused a large quantity of dirt to be placed on the ground, for the purpose of raising the sunken parte. A great portion of the square has been levelled, and the improvement made thus far is very great. An obstacle still exists In regard to squaring the lot. The mond jury appointed to lumen the damages to the property- ownera adjacent to the square have concluded that duty, anti their award is satisfactory to the property-owners. From some cause, the matter has remained a considerable length of time in Judge Allison a hands, waiting his approval. As soon as this is obtained, the squaring will be completed, and the permanent improvement of the lot commenced. The oity will have to purchase about the same quantity of ground as will be left for sale by the aquaria g process ; ST no loss will accrue in this way. The ground the city will have to sell can be disposed of readily, as it fronts nearly the whole northern side of the square, and is in a most desira ble location. PRESBYTERIAN SYNOD AT GERMANTOWN. —The annual session of the Presbyterian Synod of Philadelphia will commence Ibis evening in the First Presbyterian Church of Germantown. The opening sermon will be preached by the modera tor, Rev. Dr. Isaac, Grier, of Mifflinburg. This synod is the oldest and largest in the Presbyte rian Church of the United titates. It was organ ized in 171'1 seventy-two years before the Organi zation of the General Assembly; and though its limits have been greatly abridged, by the forma tion from it of new synods, it now C 013811863 of two hundred churches, and one hundred and ninety. fire ministers, comprising a few churches and ministers in the States of Delaware and Maryland, and, with the exception of the Presbytery of Car lisle, which belongs to the synod of Baltimore, all the Old Bchoot.Presby terian churches in Pennsyl vania from the Delaware side to the eastern vole of the Alleghenies Some of the most talented clergymen of America aro conneoted with it, and the proceedings will doubtless excite much In terest among religious people of all denomina tions. A YOUNG INCENDIARY. —Yesterday morn - ing, Mr. Joseph Moyer, of Montgomery county, was proceeding with a load of hay along Seventh street, in the vicinity of Diamond, when a small boy, eight years of age, ran out of a hifuse and set fire to the rear portion of the load. The light ma terial blazed up in an instant, and it was with the greatest difficulty that the horses attached to the wagon could be saved This wee done through the exertions of a number of men, who came-from the surrounding brickyards to the assistance. All the hey was destroyed. The lad who committed the mischief wee arrested by Officer Ruth Ilia name is.Charlea Bussinger. The youth was brought to the Central Station, where ho was questioned by Dire Marshal Blackburn. He said that he had been in the habit of making bonfires, and thought that the hay would make a nice light. lie also mid that be ran with the machine whenever he got a chance. Be was retained in custody for the present, and will probably be sent to the noose of Refuge. A BLOOMING YOUl2.—Yesterday after noon a young man, calling himself Dr. Henry Bloom, was committed by Alderman Beitier, ehargod with pursing counterfeit $lO notes on the Perth Amboy Bank. Bin mode of operation roes to go to a fashionable hotel, loign to be unwell, , and then request a servant to go to a druggist's I with n prescription. The Doctor would give the servant a bogus $lO note to pay for the medicine, and, in ono or two Instances, received good ebango. The cunning youth will probably have liberty to bloom awhile in Illoyamonsing prison. MARTIN FAULKNER BURNED.—On Tues• day afternoon FOMO small boys were amusing them selves around a bonfire, on a lot on Seventeen h street, between Spruce and Pine, when ono of them was either thrown or accidentally fell into the llamas.

UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT Judge Grier.—Girard et. eL vs. the Myer Philadelphia. Before reported. This case ecoupfed the attention of the court alt of yesterday's session, without the argument being eonoinded. The oily has died an answer, setting forth, among other things, that the Income of the whole of the testator's residuary estate is to be applied to the maintenanee and enlargement of the college, if the same is needed for such. purpoaes, and that the 'city corporation is not entitled to apply any part of the said income for the municipal pur poses mentioned by the testator until the college cl o is fully and adequately provid for, and that so mush of said blooms astir not n d And need for such purposes, the defendants It ntitled to use for snob municipal purposes as are indicated in the said will. From the time of the completion of the college the whole/of the net introits, from the rest• duary estate, including therein all the net income of the real estate held, by the defendants, has been appropriated to the maintenance and endowment of the said college and need for that purpose. And the defendants say that whenever the twee, from the said residuary feed will suffice for the necessi ties of said college,_ and leave a surplus applicable to the other trusts ddelared concerning the income of the said residue, that they can apply mob over plus to the cost of maintaining the police In that part of the said city between Vine and Eouth streets and the rivers Delaware and Schuylkill, and reduce the rate of taxation for the support of the police. In regard to the value of the estate, the re spondents say : The gross income of the residuary estate, cooslating of all the testator's real estate held by the defendants, and the personality, ex cept that which has been net aside for the Dela ware-avenue fund, and for the fundito sal ply poor house and room keepers with fuel, was, in the year 1857, when the largest income ever realised for the estate was itemised, as follows : -6154 417 53 Expenses..— ... 71.858 21 Leaving net income.- 92,633 yj The sum expeadett fur the purposes of the col lege for the same yea? was *95,538.59, being up wards of $3.000 beyond the net - income or the estate, The defendants submit that their acquiescence or dissent in or to the proposed measure of general datinn the said, corporations Could nop have been effoottve to prevent or donsurnsatte thet purpose. The said city corporation was the creature of the Legislature, to be destroyed or perpetuated at its pleasure. The said corporation neither Accepted nor repudiated its new or altered Charter; it had no choice offered to it but to obey the will of its master. The defendants allege and 'submit that the act of Aseembly of February 2,1854; entstied "Afurther supplement to an act entitled pan act to incorpo rate the oily of Philadelphia ' " did .not desire* or abrogate the corporation of the mayor, alder men, and citizens of Philadelphia." It- enlarged the territorial boundaries of the latter corporation, and changed its name to th at " - OUP of Philadelphia." The first section of the said sot provided that the powers of the corporation of the mayor; aldermen, and citizens of Philadelphia, at enlarged and Modi fied by the said not, should be exercised and have effeot :over all the territory for the drat time in cluded within ate aorporate limits,. and over all the inhabitants therein ; and in the math section, that the said corporation should be vested with all the 'power, rights, privileges; and immunities of the corporation of the mayor, aldermen, And citizens of Philadelphia. • And the defendants deny that it was provided in the mid act that, upon the eleetioh, of a .mayor and Connelly, as provided theta% the posters, rights, privileges, and immunitied preseased and enjoyed by the said corporation of the mayor, al (Sermon, and citizens of Philadellstata,„should cease and terminate , or that the same Mailed' or termi nated upon the issue of any proclamation, or other- Win howsoever; but they allege and say that the powers, rights, privileges, and humanities of the said last-named corporation were earessly con- - tinned in fall force, vigor, and effete.

RIS WONDERFUL PERFORMANCEN [From the New York Tribune of yesterday.) The political and royal excitements of the time have of late somewhat diminished the interest in the romantic billiards of M. Berger; but now that the public is assured of the election of Lincoln, and Al. Edward hat gone away, there may be expected a revival. The French master nightly bewilders the senses with the wonders of his delinate skill. By the score of the games played up to Monday evening, inclusive, which is given below, it may be seen that but one game has gone against bim. Kavanagh is, perhaps, the most brilliant player in the country, and that K. Berger should have ren• tared to discount him argues a confide nee which his triumph in a aubsequent game, giving odds more than equal to a discount, fullyjast ifles. In all the games with amateurs. (and 1107120 of the most successful have tried their cue ) he has borne off the palm with ease. lie is ready to discount the game of any non-professional player. But Barger is not satisfied with small game. Mr. Tiernan, of Cincinnati, the Champion of the West, arrived in New York last evening, and will be discounted this afternoon or evening. An ex citing match will be certain, and this will be the prelude to a grand tournament of the leafing ar tists of America. The arrangeme r e will be per. footed immediately. STROPS,/ OP Tl.
