KEW YORK IbITY. 4, -- tC.-rreapottionce of The Probs.] NEW YOUR, Nov. 19, 1883 THE RAISING OF COLORED TROOPS Some time ago, applioation was made to Governor Seymour for authorization to raise colored troops in the State. It was well known that; in this city, many nrgroes Were ready to enlist, if appropriate opportunities were afforded. Seymour, however, true to his Social antagonisms and the intolerant instincts of his much'attashed canaille, refused his Pernsission in the matter, which lotion effectually checked the patriotic endeavors of the movers of the plan. This result had been foreseen,, yet it was thought proper to make this application, probably with the view of preventing any gubernatorial grumbling when the step should be taken, which some of Our leading civilians fid military men have' just inaugurated. Our Amiable Chief Magistrate is a great stickler for punctilio, and in his eyes, apes. really, a week of riots, involving the slaughter of citizens and the destination of property, the flaming of auto da fee at our street corners, and the swinging of bodies from the lamp -posts, are only a species of poetical justice meted out by the friendly rabble is Vindication of the of dignity of their patron, because, according to hie own account, which half pens to be false, he was not informed by the Govern ment of the day upon which the draftiese to com mence...ln view of these facts, and to prevent an irritation of the Great Unwashed, upon similar grounds, the application was eminently proper. The citizens have now taken the matter into their own hands, and in response to a call, signed by Gen. Sickles, Peter Cooper, and others, a meeting has been held, and resolutions, passed, which aim at the accomplishment of the desirable result, metaphori cally speaking, over the head of the Governor. A committee of twenty-five has been appointed, which is instructed to,make direct application to Wash ington for the reqdisite authorization under which ' , Colored troops may be raised as a portion of the ' State's quota.. A masa meeting is to be held with a view of furthering the object.- Pot-house politicians are much eicited • over the possible success of the Measure, and are prodigal of prophecies and threats, and speak of thrashing the "niggers" and tearing off their uniforms. This is a 1 highly probable. More than once bandtulis of colored troops have peened through, and even remained in the city; but these unrestrainable braves heye been rather chary of theft insults and cautious in their actions at such times, and in this ease they will be equally lamblike. - A PLEASANT STHiPRESE, Respectability was jubilant last evening, over the rumor that, after all the Copperhead crowing, and war-dances, the official canvass has ascertained the election of Judge Bosworth, over the notorious MoOunn, by, a majority of fifteen votes. It seems that there is some difference regarding the votes oast in one df the districts, in which the MeOurtnltes claim over one hundred votes for their candidate, but which official papers do not as yet show. If this claim is well founded, we must, of course, shoulder our burden of sin as best we may; la the laterite. tive, howiver, we shall bavo cause for self-gratula tins. PtisOunn is sanguine of his own success. Nominating committees are hard at work on the Mayoralty ticket. Orison Blunt and 0. Godfrey Gunther are already before the people, while the loyal men are endeavoring to press the name Of General Dix, It is stated on undoubted authority that the General will not run; and, also, that he will gladly run, Between these two asseverations, we are left somewhat in doubt as to the issue. From present indicetions, the Union party bids fair to floor itself by sitting on two stools et the same time. .A. &Mend undivided front is requisite, if Tammany and Mozart, the political Clog and Magdg, are to be defeated; but managers do not seem.to understand this fact, and are squandering away the power of the party, in Their endeavors to accomplish unaccom pliehable things. The recent agitation of Oustont House mattere has brought to the surface some of the curiosities of the Revenue Department. The following incident, vouched for , upon good authority, is not unieter eating. Some time stem the baggage Of a well dressed, queenly-looking woman was examined by an official, and, among other articles, were found several well-worn silk dresses, fully flaunted with Honflon lace of the finest texture and yellowest lxe. Now, as genuine Honiton, of this .quality, is only worth about one hundred dollars per yard, the Offk eises eyes dilated to the size ofnumber four saucers, The queenly female suggested that she was wealthy and coda afford such trifling luxuries of self- adornment ; still, the official was incredulous. After much consultation, the trunks of my lady were carted off to the public store, and the whole matter fully investigated. The result, to employ the words • of Young Sam, "was stuuninV , lily lady proved to bea well-known New York modiste, who was in the habit of purchasing honitons in Paris, and 11ouncing her dress therewith. Now, as a few stray countesses occasionally rind their way to tide port, with wardrobes of a gorgeous quality, this fraudu• lent sinner had, theretofore, passed her own most valuable collection beneath the noses of the officials without let or hindrance, by skulking in the shadow of the aristocracy. In this instance, however, she was trapped, and, at the end of the investigation, serenely handed over her check for ten thousand dollars, in payment of all demands for accumulated duties. ST UYVB SANT. A `..peecti. from Mr. Vallandigliatn to the Students of the Mienigan - University, on Literature and Polities. On the 14th a large number of the students of the 'University of Michigan paid , a formal visit to Mr. Tallandighani, at Windanr, C. NIT. we quote the following piece of nelf.condemnatien But, young gentlemen, while I have thus ad dressed yeu as students preparing yourselves for the ordinary business and professions of life, I well know that at any time many of you would be, and In times of such tremendous import as just now are • upon us in our own country, all of you are pro foundly interested in Potence. Probably you give to them more of your thoughts than to any of your collegiate ; or professional studies. I know, too, that many 'of 'ou even now look eagerly forward to the time.when.you will pass from your professions into political life. That is the goal of your ambitious iongings. Your hearts are fixed upon it. It is an honorable, a holy ambition ; an ambition not to be extinguished, but to be regulated. He is a false teacher who would tell the ingenuous, vir tuous, and public. spirited youth of the country that the political service of the country is fit only for thY vulgar, the impure, and the corrupt. As there are hypocrites in the pulpit, emplace in medicine, pettifoggers at the bar, and pretenders everywhere, so there are demagogues in political life. But there is as well a morality as a philoso• phy, a science in politics, far above the circle of these reptilea. Unhappily. the low standard of capacity and morals set up and denounced by those who de cline public life, and practically' but too often ac knowledged by politicians, Is another of the evil portents which threaten our country. Of the cor rupting influences of avarice at all times I need not speak. `But, more debasing and dangerous still, in seasons of great public corn motion, is the execrable vice of fear. All these combined, make up that most loathsome of all the - object& of reproach and scorn, a "scurvy politician." He has borne the same odious character in every country and age. Among the Greeks be once courted popularity or place by point. ing out the smugglers of ties, and was cursed as both spy and. informer, and thence gave a name to the whole class of demagogues. In Rome he headed every petty popular tumult, and clamored .fiercely for a division of' land and goods. Curran de scribed him in his day in felicitous phrase as "one - who, buoyant by putrefaction rises as he rots." He is the vermin, the insect , of politics, and amid the I beats of civil war and convulsion teems into life as thick as gnats in the summer evening air. If any one among you—and I speak, to those _ who would aspire to be leaders among their country men—have neither the capacity nor the ambition to be a 'statesman, let him at least not stoop to be. come a demagogue. Preach, heal, try causes, work, but scorn to be one of that number who know nothing of politics, except the passions and per sonalities which they excite. If not able to argue uponprinciples, measures, politics, debate not at all.- If you cannot soar, do not creep. Whoever discusses'only men in politics is always largely a slanderer. Principles not men, is not, indeed, altogether a sound maxim, though little liable to be abused since personalities always make up so large and control ling an element-in mere partisan politics. Better say, principles and men. It is easy to be "a politician or demagogue—sail with the wind, float with the current, 'look not to the compass, neither lift up your eyes to the heavens where the constellations and the' pole star, bright, glorious emblems of God, and Truth, and the Right, still shine steadfast, im movable; just as they shone in the 'beginning of time, poela nasotittr. So it is with the demagogue. But the statesmen must be made as well as born. His voyage is through mid-ocean, and in storm. Re sails under orders. His port is ascertained and pre scribed before he sets out, and it is his duty to reach it ; and so, like the majestic ocean steamer, he sails on, and "Against the wind. against the tide, Still steadier with an upright keel " Demoothenee, more than tiro thousand years ago, in his great oration on the crown, well distinguished between these two characters, declaring that while they were alike in nothing, they differed chiefly in this-..that the statesman boldly and honestly pro claimed his opinions before the event, and thus made himself responsible to fortune, to the times, to his countrymen, to the world ; while the syco phant or demagog ue was silent till the event had happened, and then governed his speech and his conduct accordingly. and now, allow me to add, that though you may be patriots, and yet not statesmen, the great statesman is always a patriot. His love of country is as well a principle as an emotion. Duty enters largely into it, hence it is stable, enduring. It is not sensational—cer tainly not mere feeling of gratitude; least of all in the meating of that word, as defined by Dr. John son, "a lively sense of favors yet to be received." He loves his country both wisely and well He never sacrifices her real, though remote, interests to a popular clamor, and still less at the demand of those who hold the power. Neither will he corrupt the virtue nor tarnish the honor of, his country to save her mere sordid interests. Rather will he imitate the ex ample of Aristides, who, reporting to the Athenians that &certain proposition was indeed for their Ind mediate advantage, but would bring dishonor upon the State, counselled that they would reject it. LliaVe;said nothing. about " loyalty." It is Word ;which belongs justly but only to kingly Go. yen:anent& I. Min comprehend loyalty to a King and especially to a Queen;l but as an American choose ; o a d here to the goo d and honest old repub lican word "patriotism," and to cherish the virtue which , has been used to express; Aspire, then,- young gentlemen, you who would pursue a public course, to be patriot statesmen. Have faith—abso. lute, unquestioning, unswervable—that faith which speaks to itself in the silence and calm of the heart's Own beating, saying, it not today or this time, then tomorrow, or next, or some other day at some other e time, .in some other way, all will be Well. Without-this no man ever achieved greatness. Be incorriiptlble in your integrity, be inexorable in your dellberate,'Well. considered Purposes, be appalled by no diftioultiem Amplify your minds, but still m o re , be great in soul, It is this which shall lift you up high above the earth, arid assimilate you to that which is divine. Without it you will but creep with dusty, and drooping, and wearied wing. Without it, think not to endure that cruel and crushing weight of dazing and suffering which we must bear who faithfully, and with heroism, at any time, but most of all, in periods of great public convulsion, would act the part of the patriot statesman. MB. FiEBOHBR.—We _understand that Mr. Beecher positively refuses, for the present, to lecture before any society for money., He will, however, make public addresses in two or three of the principal cities, on condition that the entire proceeds shall be appropriated for the benefit of our sick and wounded soldiers, or in some other way for the benefit of the cause for which he battled in England. From this tufa'. until January he will deliver no lectures on private contract under any inducement whatever. It iv said that a benevolent amooiation in this city tasjust offered Mr. Beecher five hundred dollars for a Single lecture in behalf of its specific work; and that an organization in Philadelphia offered eight hundred dollars for two lectures. Both offers were declined.—EveningPost, • Puovasson 111oCuixon.--Thth gentleman, who recently left a professorship in Columbia College, New York, and suddenly.turned up in the South as a Confederate brigadier general, is said to be a na tive of Baltimore, and a graduate of Princeton Col lege, The Pittsburg Commercial says that several years agohe was a professor of mathematic, and nit. tuna sciences in Jefl'erson College, Pennlylvania i and was subsequently connected with the coast sur vey and the Philadelphia mint.

Hannah With infield's "Pie* Cook Biook," a very practical hook, containing the results of the author's many years' experience in the culinary art. It is essentially an American 'work, every receipt in Abasing been tested by great experience, and the leedhag feature is the simplicity of the whole--:such simplicity, we need not lay, being conducive to health of person and pocket. . Mr. Henry Morford has followed up his war novel of "Shoulder-straps"' by another, entitled "The Days of Shoddy—a Novel of the 0-teat Rebellion of 1661." It will embody the romance as well as the history of the war, and, as the title foreshadows, will deal largely with contractors, their. doings mid' miodoings. It will be published in one 12mo volume, by Peterson & Brothers, early next month. The forthcoming additions to Petorsons , series of Military Novels, with illustrated title•pages, illu mined in gold and 'colors, consist of Alexandre Dumas , best &tone : the immortal "Three Guards. men," "Twenty Years After," and "Bragalonne, the Son of Athos." The type and paper are very good. in Thackeray's new Wok (" Roundabout Papers," just published by Harper & Brothera) the great English author thus apostrophizes the French remands!: "0 Dumas l 0 thou brave, kind, gal lant old Alexandre I ,I hereby offbrOthee homage, and give thee thanks for many pleasant hours. I have read thee (being sick in bed) for thirteen hours of a happy day, and had the ladies of the house fighting for the volume." Progressive Deinocrate. We find in a Western newspaper the following " platform," said to have been adopted by Democrats of Ohio and elsewhere since the elections.

[Correspondence of the Evening Post.] WASHINGTON, Nov. 18, 18li3 —lt is reported that Mews. Davis, Webster, Thomas, and Oresswell, of the Maryland delegation in the Rouse of Represent - /gives, may decline to enter the Republican caucus, but it is certain that they will vete for the Republi can nominee for Speaker. Declining to enter any caucus, they may make their choice in the open Rouse between the two nominees—one the repro• sentative of the Administration as* the war; and the other representing the entire opposition to the Administration and the war. There are not less than ten members elected to the new Rouse, who will not act with the members from Maryland whom I have named. They are not Republicans in the technical meaning of the word, but they are emancipationists, and will, on all occa sions, vote against the Copperheads and Democrats. ' . For all practical purposes they are as efficient sup porters of the Administration as if they were elected from overwhelming Republican districts. The Ad ministration will recognise them, rather than the so-called “Conservatives,l , from their respective States, as entitled to speak for the interests of their section. Sir Alexander Milne on the United States. [Correspondence of the Evening Post ] limvax, Nov. 13, 1863.—Sir Alexander Milne, naval commarder-in•cbief on this station, left here in - her Majcsty's ship Nile this Morning for Ber muda, whence be will proceed to England. Sir Alexander's successor is Bear Admiral Sir Santee Hope. • Admiral Milne was much esteemed while on this station. In his reply to the address presented him by the merchants of Halifax, before leaving, he paid a high tribute to the naval'commanders and to the naval authorities and Government of the United States for the uniform kindness and courtesy mani- Seated towards himself and the officers under him in all their intercourse. He also stated that the Go. vernment of that country acted honorably ani promptly with regard to every communication sent •toit by him. This reply has been " gall and worm wood" to the rebel sympathizers in Halifax, aad - they would gladly suppress it if they could. • MIIBICIAL.—From the New York -- -World we quote the following truthful criticism : Effective music, which, while occasionally taw dry in ideas, and inelegant in compotition, is of a quality now most acceptable to audiences in general. The actor who is nearest akin to a Stentor rouses people to applause, and walks into popularity more readily than he whose utterance is less vehement, and the music which is boisterous makes its mark much quicker than tha • which demands more sub 'dued intonation. This circumstance is sorely detri mental to art. Composers and singers ask for reputation upon the strength of it, and the conse • quence is that faith in the taste of Donizetti,-Bellini, Rossini, and Jtleyerbeer, is being dreadfully shaken. The Italian composers for a dosenyears past have, from producing voluptuous music, come to cultiva• ting a little that is positively vulgar, and which quickly finds its place in the repertory of circus bands, and similar 'inferior orchestras. The edu cated public owes it to its own good' name to exer cise great care in awarding , honors to operatic com positions. Truth - to say, nothing is more common than for the craziest pieces in an opera to take the laurels of the evening, or for artists to gain encores, after transposing an aria into an easier key, and singing it more or less out of time and tune in ad dition. .. A VERY large number of freedmen are employed try the navy on the Mississippi river. They are said to make excellent seamen, and are especially capable as gunnera. ' A letter says : " The body servant of the rebel Secretary Benjamin is now en gaged on board one of the steamers plying between Memphia and New Orleans, and many other once valuable slaves are now in happy freedom making men of -themselves . At many of the contraband camps zealous chaplains and noble men and women sent forth by the Christian Commissions of the several States are now laboring to elevate the charac ter of the. freedmen and trying to make them Indus tricle and useful, both to themselves and the com munity." Tait total valuation of the State of New York counts to $1,454,464,817, upon which is imposed for the year 1863 a tax of $7,272,274 08.

SPENCER MILLER, of the Special Commit tee, aepointed to investigate certain bulimia tin rumors circulated relative to the leasing of the Gi rard coal lands, made a lengthy report, submitting a voluminous amount ofevidence, which was taken at the various sittings of the Committee. The report sets forth the great value Of the coal lands, and recommends a reform in the granting of leases of them. Their value and productiveness are subject to constant flue tuations, and those who have the leasing of them will always-be exposed to the importunities of speculators. Meagre. Vandyke and Wadletgh were applicants for the most valuable of the lands. They both admit they offered to give el,OOO to the resident agent of the city if they ob tained the lease. There was no evidence that Mr. Kaercher, the agent, received this sum or any _amount of it. It appears by the minutes of the Girard Estate Committee that Mr. K. submitted a - communication mentioning the names of applicants for the lease on or before, the 19th of August. On motion of Mr. Sulger, the Mims were referred to a committee of three, consisting of Messrs. Sulger, Harris, and Panting. These , gentlemen visited Pottsville and made a report. Your committee is informed,by Mr. Spering, one of the joint general committee on the Girard Estates that strenuous efforts were made - to poetpone action upon this report by•him rind - others, at this meet ing, which was held on the 20th of September; that the resolution previously offered by Mr. blether ' ill, and passed in thischamber, on the 24th day of April, was in his hands,' and produced before the committee on asking for it postponement as a reason for so doing, and that the postponement was voted down; Messrs. Harris,- and Panting, with ethers, voting against the postponement, and Mr. Sulger not voting at all. After hearing the testimony, it was thought proper by the committee to give the members of-the sub-committee who wele implicated by it an oppor tunity of being heard. mr. Harris appeared be fore the committee, and read a sworn statement, and tittered to answer, under oath, any question that might be asked. Mr. Sulger sent a statement, but Mr. Panting did not appear, send any statement, or take any journal notice of the invitation sent to The evidence in regard to this latter gentleman is so conclusive, and his failure to attend, or offer to deny or rebut it, confirms Nem decidedly, that we deem it unnecessary to make confinents upon it. In boldly and unblushingly pressing his own corrupt demands, he did not hesitate to bring the whole of the - Committee on*Girard Estates under suspicion. Such conduct is a disgrace to these Councils, and should meet with prompt and immediate punish , ment. How can we expect to obtain the respect of our fellow. citizens if we tolerate one who is capable of such a course?. , As Mr. Pauling has failed to appear or submit his case to the committee, and we are not-empow ered to give him a technical trial, we cannot, per haps, report a technical conviction. In regard to Mr. Sulger the committee have nothing to say. He I is a member of the other Chamber, and they leave his case to rest with those who are concerned in the matter. The committee are of the opinion that the I /resolutions granting leases to Messrs. Wadleigh & ' Vandyke and Mr. Laws should be vacated. The report is signed by Messrs. Miller, Nicholson, Davie, Catherwood, and Wetherill. An ordinance was offered annulling the lease granted io Messrs. Wadleigh & Vandyke and A. F. i -Laws & Co., and providing for the releasing of the said lands. The consideration of the ordinance was postponed. The evidence submitted in the ease is voluminous. Charles Dengler testified that he was at the meet ing of the sutacommittee held in - September, at Pottsville; from what they said he was led to be lieve that it depended upon their report whether a lease would or, would-not ,be granted. Neither member of the committee asked him for anything direct. He sent coal, two cars; about four and a halt tons each, to Mr. Pauling, one oar to Mr. Sul ger, and none to Mr. Harris, Nothing was said about payment of the same ' nor did we expect any payment. He, understood frOm his . partner, Mr. Robinson; that they expected money. Morris Robinson testified that Pauling asked him for four cars of coal, and gave him his address. Mr. Panting said to witness that a bonus would be re quired of him and his partner; witness said lie could not say anything-- at that time, he would speak to Dengler, whom he afterwards told what Peal ing Was (drifting .at ; Mr. Dengler*Went to Paul. leg to inquire what sum was required y Panting hid not like to tell Dangler, as he was not well acquainted With himwitness then saw him, and told him to name his s ,figures; reviling said the other members of the committee wanted a pretty large sum, but he had got them down to what he thought was about fair; he -said- it ought to be three thousand dollars, but he would take' two thousand dollars ; witness asked him if he could not take one thousand dollars ; he said no, as there would be about eight to divide it among that that would be a majority of the committee, and would be less than $3OO hundred each. Witness then asked if he could not take one thousand dollars cash, and give time for the balance of the $2,000 ; he said no, that it would not do; if there was paper given it might tell some tales. Neither of the-other members of the committee named any sum of money to witness, who informed his counsel of all that had transpired, and, did not give any Money, Pauling accused witness of telling on him, and said it would be bad for witness if he told the conversations that had happened between them. ,Franklin Karcher, agent of the Girard estates in Schuylkill and Columbia counties, was examined. He had no. knowledge of any, person procuring a lease for Money ; have been offered Money to pro cure leases; Mr. Vandyke offered me $l,OOO if I could secure him the Keely run tract. - Richard Vandyke who was sworn, denied - posi tively the form in which Karcher stated the facts in regard to their application for a lease. Mark Wadleigh was also examined, but his evi dence had no direct bearing on the case. • The affidavit of William Harris, Jr., a member of the committee,- sets forth plainly that he knows no thing of the bribery alleged to have been practised, and that he never in any way authorized the same, or had any knowledge or it. ~ The statement of Mr. Sulger, disclaiming all con nection with the matter, was also submitted. Mr. BRIGHTLY now moved that the consideration of the report be made the special order of the day for the next_meeting, at five o'clock, and that Mr. Panting be furnished with a copy of the evidence, and notified to appenr. Mr. ZANE moved to - amend by, striking out the" name “Pauling'," and inserting "all persons impli cated and connected with this Chamber." ometer Mr. BRIGHTLY finally withdrew his motion, and offered a resolution expelling Mr. Fouling, which the CHAIR deoided out of order. ' Mr. - ZANE sustained the views of the Chair in his decision. In all reports emanating from committees, we merely consider the ordinance attached or re commended, and not the report itself. , The speaker said that up to , this day there never have been any charges made against Messrs. Harris and Pau ling. There was a mere insinuation that something had gone wrong—no charges were made—and a committee of investigation was ordered. They can- not be legally expelled until a committee is appoint, ed to investigate the charges made in this report. After a long discussion and several motions were made and voted down, • Mr. BRIGHTLY moved that the elerk inform Com mon Councils of the action of the investigating com mittee,' and furnish them with a copy of the evi dence. The motion'was agreed to, and no further action will be taken in the case until Common Council is heard from.

Both the intruders re turned and menaced the, house. A. warrant was taken out, placed Into the hands of Detective mon. He arrested the defendant, and had an urs.

On Wednesday evening, about nine o'clock, as he was going to his room, he heard , the voice of one of the women, as though she was being maltreated or imposed upon. In the kindness of his heart, he opened the door, when he found his ser vices were not needed.

In relation to the conversation detailed by the witness McGill, called by the Com monwealth, as having taken place on' Monday between the defendant and a colored woman, named Btuke, as the two were being con veyed back to prison in the van, the wo man, Burke, was called to the stand, and testi fied that, though she had some conversation with' defendant in relation to the members of hie family who were in court that day, she had no conversation with him in reference to Mrs. McGee whatever; the witness McGill was mistaken as to that.

The stock market was moderately active, with a strong list of prices. Buyers are taking courage, and from the Promising condition of several of the /tower-priced fan cies, there is a likelihood of a revival of speculative move /cent very soon.
