LEXTER FROM NEW YORK.
[From Our Correspondent.]
New Tori, March 3,1862.
The news of the death of General Lander was ru*
taored in some, and circulated as a positive fact in
others, of our leading hotels about nine o’clock last
Slight—two hours, 1 believe, before tbe intelligence
the newspaper press offices. It was doubted by
some, received with hesitation by others* and regretted
F>y ali. The misfortune-mongers took occasion to mix
the event up with some reverse of the Union troops in
Virginia—by military surprise or a sudden
‘outbreak of the inhabitants—so that to the grief for the
Tnan was euperadded a little gloom with respect to our
motional prospects. The publication of the true facts of
’the cue by the journals this morning confirmed the
Former, but, happily, dispelled the latter feeling.
New York grieves for General Lander as one of the
•enterprising and undaunted pioneers of our territorial
•expansion and intercourse; as a citizen or probity, good
faith, and euergetic activity; as a soldier of undaunted
•courage and calm judgment, and* perhaps above alt, as
the husbaid Of one of her most popular, favorite ac
tresses—Miss l>ave»port. The sympathy with this lady,
©o unexpectedly, yet gloriously, widowed, is very uni
versal here this moruiug.
General Shields' appointment as the successor of Gene
ral Lander is approved highly. It is particularly ac
ceptable to our Irish soldier friends, aud, indeed, to every
cine of our people, whether they have Irish bleed in
their veins or not.
The Germans of New York are much divided in opinion
»s to an object ot hern worship. I don’t think that in
*ny one saloon iu New York, is there a-«3wiluger”
disposed of without an advocacy or argument, as to the
claims ot Sigel, B'enker, D’Utassy, or Fremont, to the
-Motional or general adoration of the Teutonic element*
3ndeod* it appears, at some momenta, as if wo s nronld have
fe German council for purposes of war canonization
Bitting in the city at May Ojust simultaneous with the
assemblage of the great convocation called by Pius the
iNinth iu Home, with a view of adding a few dozen of
ftaiuts, of different degrees of merit* to tlie ancient calen
dar. Seriously, I can gee. that some of the more re
flecting of the (immnii leaders are getting ashamed
Of this course of action; the “ Sigel Committee ” which
pnet regularly at Pythagoras Hall bei ig dissolved last
Saturday. 3he Ci&rni&n politicians have made a grand
endeavor to render the war feeling subservient to their
own city interests, and to this end personalities and in*
-sHvidualisa:, concerniug and in support of the German
Officers, were promulgated, aud supposed with veWn&ace
Cnd without scruple iu their circles. It is to be hoped
that the dissolution of the “ Sigel Committee’ 1 will bring
the practice to an end, and that the Germans of New
TV'ork, as of other places, will feel and act only as citi
zens of the United States and subjects of tbe whole
Union, leaving their officers to gain distinction, or other
wise. as they do their duty to the country and the Com
tnandenin.chief
Tbe Common Council of this city has adjourned sine
liie. It is likely the members will not meet for some lew
■days, as it is desirable they should take some “ sound
ings 11 in the lobby, ns to the effect which some of the
tneaeures, now before the Legislature iu Albany, may
fiiave on our municipal interests and their own private
affaire. You will have seen that we propose another
change In the constitution of the city charter, the build
png of a railroad on I!road »ay, and the construction ot
lateral lines of mil in almost every one of the side streets:
cneof the motions, in fact, reads “for the laying of rails
fin every street and avenue in New York.”
These are weighty matters for Aldermaiuc debate, as
Svgards present income and future position, and so the
city fathers have voted themselves a little moment for re
flection. The question of the mode of distributing the
corporation advtutiting is also befctd both b?&i>«M,es of
Abe Council. This matter “pays’' very well—both in
chines and puffs—and cannot be neglected. By tbe pre
sent arrangement, the advertising is given to a few of
fcbe daily papers, with about half a dozen of the weeklies,
fio the tune of aeveKty or eighty thousand dollars a year.
!The majority of the weeklies here have no circulation
Worth noticing, aud yet they draw some six or seven
thousand a year each Iromthis “ pap” cup—ln truth, they
exist on the fruits of a public beggary. Few read them,
Bo that all competition for tbe performance of public
•fork is destroyed, by advertising in their columns,
Bud the contracts fall into the hands of a fe*r job
bers In tbe Boards, who can thus afford to throw
c* bone to the hungry proprietors, while they themselves
juake a fortune. The demoralized editors tell these Ai
tierzcen and Councilnien that they possess aU sorts of in
fluence in their wards—lrish, German, Catholic, Know
{Nothing, and Episcopal, (from tbe mitre down to the
knock's frock.) and that “itmay go” against them if they
fio not vote thorn their “ living share” of the public plun
der. Thus you §ee the corporation«adfertiBing “ar
rangemwtß” are important, and as they must be changed
Boon, they are thought worthy consideration by the home
Fireside or bar-room store. As a sample of this jobbery,
let me tell you that one honest “religious” weekly ad
vertised the resolutions cf the corporation, directing the
Jfeltt for the Fourth of July last in the beginning of
-August of the same year, while another heads a notice

We have just had news of the arrival of the famous or
Infamous privateer JYhsAriHe, Captain Pegram, at Wil

Successfully “run” the blockade again, and we feel
Rnuchdisappointment at her success. However, we have
She consolation—at least so they tell us—that the British
•uitboiitiee did not permit her to take out any contraband
cargo, and also that she will find it very difficult ever to

»he has escaped from the hands of Captain Craven, of tbe
iTvscarora, she is at least locked up from inflicting pi
rate injuries on peaceful traders like the Harvey Jiirch.

Tbe programme of the arrangements is published in

*to be worthy, in every respect, of the man, the occasion,
•trad the “ City of Churches.” It will come off “ rain or
fcbine,” but I am sorry to say that, at the present mo
xnent, the weather ia very unpropititOUS for the SCOHIC
effect of the display.
A light, drizzling rain set in about six o’clock this
morning. Falling on the hard-frozen side-walks, it ren
dered them as slippery as glass, so that out-door foco
gnotion was a matter both- of difficulty and danger to
those who had not practised the art of skating on the
Central Park ponds. Towards noon the rain came down
gnore heavily, and the thaw being more complete, people

Cotton Is being lauded here, both from the rebel States

the great staple interest, both at home and abroad, will
‘fcide over the crisis until tbe crop is fully liberated from
Fbe South, and the “ jennies” of the world set in| mo
tion once more. A leading broker in Wall street thinks
that we will soon hare one hundred millions of dollar** in
exchange, based on the receipt of cottonftom ths South,
And it is thought we will soon receive over three hundred
thousand bales from Memphis alone. Some persons re
gnain doubtful of either eventuality.
The speeches of Karl Russell, Bail Derby, Lord Car
narvon, and others. In the Parliament Houses of Eng
land, have given a “ heavy blow and great discourage

The High Price of Wool.—Wool is now
higher than it has been for forty.four years. This is
owing to the large demand for army goods, and the ad
vanced prices of cotton. It will not soon fall SQ
again as it has been of late years, and wo shall be sur
prised if the Hocks upon our hills are not greatly in
creased. Be this as it may, however, we are informed
that Granville Stokes, the Fashioner and Clothier, No.
609 Chestnut street, will aliU continue to dispoßo of, at
unprecedented low prices, Ills superior assortment of
seasonable garments, of which he keeps constantly on
