To-day is fixed for the execution of John Brown, at - Charlestewn,_ Virginia, for the double crime of murder and treason. Since the. acts for which he is to suffer the extreme penalty of...the law were committed, they and he have been the all absorbing subject of public-attention. Until John Brown undertook a resort to the ‘ , l4:afitunietit of urigs," the f&naticiam' of Atolihorusru tfacivehted itself m words. - Urgedon by the political leadings of a party which totally disregards the bonds which bind this trnioii together; he undertook to carry putakep laid design ofcommencing a seceita; Aeschtion in Aniekicau hiStork embracing civil war and a dissolution of the Union. The long • crusade of treasonable aeitation, designed, not for the publi6 good, but ttl bujl4 up a sectional political party,haa at lastieiulted in overt acts-of ireason,rebel lion and murder. . ,The more timid Republi cans are appalled at the natural result of their party teachings. They deprecate violent mea aureaans4 ssar, they only design to overthrow the iiiiitieli tions Of the South by montlforce and arl- I surnentative warfare. Still they at tempt to palliate and excuse the Offense of - Jno. -Brown as though it were a political one, merely- , -not criminal -in itself, but only criminal' because it failed. Thus they un consciously: betray the wishes of their hearts "and the designs of their party. We have little patience - with that fanaticism which would disregard all legal enactments and sanctify the most hideous crimes as acts of bravery andherciisramsanctionedby the law of God." It is an insult to that sacred law to make it a cloak for revolutionary acts, de structive to the peace of thicomatly and the safety of the persons and property of law abidingjttjaegs. ~ ..11.eavennever :designed a "higher law" like that which satisfies the consciences,. of those who would glorify Brown and make a martyr of him. The elemente , ithlch•aimpose fthe party who regard Brown as a martyr are at once po _litical, fanatical and religious—a combina tion so comblistible that when once dim (nighty ignited it is impossible for any gov ernme-qtd control. It was these elements which rendered the army, of Cromwell so terrible. ''fteiie'snMe elementa are madly drivingg the men of the North to desperate lengths: it is not safe to play with the pas sions of fanatics. Let, them be brave as Cromwell amksincere as the maddest Round head of_his army, they mast suffer the penalties ofhroken law and outraged social agreements and public obligations disregard- Brown lies eosin the wind, and must reap the whiilwi'ncL -.)

DEC. 2 LOWRY'S FIRE PLUGS. We understand that. Mr. Lowry is just com pleting nineteen of his new patent fire plugs, to be sent to distant, cities. Here they have been tried, and found to be far superior to anything of the sorts which- hatlyet 'been invented. We can assure our leaders in distant cities, that they are at once the cheapest, and most effect ive article yet invented to prevent fires. Wears glad. o note that a project is on foot similar to the one which the Post suggested's week or two since, to procure legislation which way enable the city to create a fund for the maintainance of an efficient fire depart ment. This is an important matter to prop erty owners, and they should at once give it a portion of their attention. The bill, before it goes to the Legislature should be well digest ed, and such an enactment should be procured as will be effective for the purpose intended. The fund shoUld, like the Poor Fund, be 'placed under the control of a separate and dis tinct organization, so that no contingencies could divert it from the purpose for which ,it is designed. ,The System of Weights and Measures. A. proposition will be submitted at the noxl session of Congress to establish a uniform eye• tern of Weights and measures, on the decima principle. It comes from New Hampshire, and is recommended by the legislature of that State. Congress should do something towards establishing a uniform system of weights and measures, and the decimal system would be the simplest and most convenient. Some of our State Legislatures have anticipated Congress partially, and beim sudjusted weights and meas ures of their own. Pennsylvania, for instance, has adopted the decimal principle in the ton weight., making it consist of two thousand pounds. In oiler weights the old avoirdupois system is the one acknowledged by her legisla tion. Some States make the ton consist of 2240 pounds;suul the Halted States ton is of the same number of pounds. All this conflicting legislation tends to embarrass the operations of business and induces law-suits. If Congress were to adopt the decimal system throughout, as ithas done in the currency, the simplicity and convenience of-the arrangement would soon induce every State tecenform to it, and intro duce one uniforip system of weights and mone ares throughout the country- Sir John Bow ring, in a speech in England, stated that C0(5,- , 000,000 of the human reels employ it. adding that there is no instance on record of its ever having been abandoned by any who havz:" troduced it. who this day Steam for City Cars. A gentleman in Philadelphia has invented a two-wheeled loco motive for use on the passen ger railways Of cities. There is an upright boil er, with the cylinders attached to each side, in a. perpendicular position, and which are direct ly attached to the shaft moving the wheels. The weight of the engine is equally balanced, and the two front wheels of the passenger car form the trailing wheels of the locomotive. The locomotive will bo about half the length of a passenger car, and when ready for running will look like one cut in half. Horses will undoubttdly be used for some time to come on street railways—but thoust eventually give way to steam. Such a locomo tive as above noticed will occupy as much room in the streets as horses rey dire ; by it the train or car can be more readily started or checked in case of obstruction on the track— r a'rd the inventor claims that it can run at a cost of fifty cents a day for fuel. We cell attention to the advertisement of Mr. James Robb; in this morning's papei. Mr. Robb has been for many years one of the leading shoe dealers of our city, and no man in this community occupies a higher position as an upright,..carefal, honest and fair dealing business man. He keeps constantly on hand a very large and well selected stock of boots and shoes of all descriptions, substantially and fashionably manufactured of first class stock. Those who purchase from Mr. Robb will find his goods cheap and in quality precisely as he represents them. THE ORGANIZATION OF THE HOUOE AND THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. A correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, writing from Washington City says : "Some of the more practical and prudent of the Republicans now discourage the idea that the ,Republican members of the House have the power to elect a string of straight-out ultra Republicans for 'all the offices of the House. Such an attempt, if it be made, as it probably will be, must necessarily result in combina tions among the anti-Republican members for a division of all the offices. Thus the Demo cratic candidate for the Speakership may bo elected, and the Clerk of the Leto House, 31r. Allen, be rechosen, whit the offices of prin ter, sergeant-at-arms and postmaster, may be divided among the anti-Lecompton Democrats and the Southern opposition. It will not even be very easy- for the Republicans to count a hundred and thirteen votes 14 favor of their caucus nominations. They may-fall oil' to a hundred and one. Some interest is always felt in the mode of promulgating the President's message and the report of the Secretary of the Treasury on the state ,ef the finances. It has been generally the case that, in spite of all the precautions of the President, a few,copies reach some favor ed or "enterprising' paper, in advance of those sent off to pastmitstera for-distribution among the newspapers at the moment when the mes sage is communicated to Congress. Such "mistakes" will, it is hoped, be avoided here after, as they are •discreditable both to the press and to the government. But as there is no probability that the House will ber organ ized for a month after the first Monday in De cember, it will be lannecessary and imprudent to distribute the message, as usual, so as to be ready for promulgation on that day. The President may follow. the example of Mr. Pierce, and read his message for the informa tion of the country to the Senate, without waiting for the organization of the Rouse. But he will probably -wait for a few days, and give notice, in some manner, of the day when he will thus .communicate the message.' - New toes for ludlau Rubber. About the latest and most novel application of ! indian rubber, if we except that of the manufacture of files, is-the construction of musical instruments. One would scarcely im agine, 'when looking at a piece of soft and yielding "rubber," that it could ever be made sonorous enoegh to serve for a flute: yet it is said that neither ebony, nor coco wood, nor box wood, nor glass, nor silver, tsar gold, nor any other known substance, is equal to vul canized indian rubber for this purpose : one manufacturer. in New. York, Mr. Badger, has decided to use it to the !exclusion of all other material, in the fabrication of this sweetest of wind instruments.

Branch, of New York, writes a very penitential letter to the Herald. He says his libels were received from eminent citizens, whose names lie oilers to give to the injured parties. He concludes iu this strain : " I deeply regret that I ever wrote a word against "either sects," of the human family, and my future career shall prove the sincerity of my sorrow. All I now desire is to be permitted to embark in some useful puisuit and acquire sufficient to 'redeem my apparel from the pawnbroker's, and pay my board in some respectable family, and command the re spect of meritorious citizens, win the regard of those whom I have most shamefully tra duced, and slowly march to an honorable grave ; and, with shattered fortunes and a broken heart, and copious tears, and a common ruin, I do trust that my fervent prayer will reach the breasts of all whom I have most cruelly Raised and derided.

One of the largest wrought iron shafts ever manufactured' in the United States has just. boon completed by Messrs. Tugnot, Daily & Co., of this city, for the steamer Metropolis. It is thirty seven feet in length and weighs forty-dye thousand pounds. The l'utcan-ie labor of lengthening and rounding this im mense piece of machienery to, its vast, but beautiful and mathematically-correct propor tions, was accomplished by means of a single hammer, weighing seven and a /fait tons.

We commend him and his "gang of forgers" to the owners of the Great Eastern when she comes to Now York for re pairs and improvements. Catching Whales. In 1834, the wZtole number of vessels engag ed in the business, was about 700, of which 400 or four-sevenths, were American, and 300,11 r three-sevenths, were foreign. So that twenty five years ago, Yankee enterprise was ahead of the rest of the world as 4 to 3. In 1869 the whole number is estimated at ,900, of which 661 are American, and 239 foreign; showing Yankee enterprise still more in the ascendant; for we have added 261 ships tdour fleet—a gain of 65 per cent., while our foreign Competitors have fallen off 61 ships,—a loss of GO per cent,. In the value of the catch, the increase is still greater, being about $12,300,000 in 'G9, against, s'ooo,ooo in '34--about, /7r.! per cent, This, however, is in a great measure owing to the advanee4 value of oil and . bone, which has much of late years: , - - ' A GAME DINNER. Shortly after the war with Great Britain, an aristocratic English gentleman built a fine residence in the vicinity of Fort George, on the Niagara frontier, and, in accordance with the old country idea of exclusiveness, he enclosed his grounds with a high tight fence. Hero he lived like an old English gentleman—one of the olden time—with the exception that none but the elite of the province and the officers of the neighboring garrison were allowed to pass his gate. There was a very good understanding between the American officers at Fort Niagara and the British at Fort George, and the men were permitted occasionally to visit back and forth. Among the American soldiers was a queer chap, who stuttered terribly, was very fond of hunting, and who was always gettinginto some sort of mischief. - _ One day this chap took the small boat that lay moored at the .foot , of the walls of the fort, and crossed over to the Canadian shore for a hunt. He wandered over several miles in the rear of Fort George, but without meeting any game, and, on his return, seeing a crow on a tree within the enclosure of the aristocratic Englishman, he scaled the high fence, fired, and brought down his game. Colonel or whatever his title may have been, (we will mil him Colonel, anyhow,) witness ed the transaction, and advanced while our soldier was reloading. Bowes very angry; but seeing the Yankee standing very coolly willt a loaded gun in his hand, he gulped down his passion for a moment, and merely ' asked him if he killed the crow. The Yan kee replied that he did. "I am very sorry," said the Colonel, " for he was a pet. By the bye, that is a very pretty gun—will you be so kind as to let me look at it?" The sol dier complied with the request. The Eng lishman took the Sun, stepped back a few paces, took deliberate aim, then broke forth in a tirade of abuse, concluding with an order to stoop down and take a bite of the crow, or he would blow his brains out. The soldier explained, apologised, and entreated. It was of no use. There was shoot in the Englishman's eye —there was no help for it—and the stutter ing soldier stooped and took a bite of the crow, but swallow it he could not. Up came his breakfast—his dinner the day before, and it really appeared as if he would throw up his toe-nails. The Englishman gloated on the misery of lus victim, and smiled com placently at every additional heave. When lie MO got through vomiting, and had wiped his eyes, the Colonel handed him his gun, with the remark : "Now, you rascal, that will teach you how to poach on a gentle man's enclosure." The Yankee soldier took his gun, and the Colonel might have seen the devil in his eye if lie hail looked close.. Stepping back he took aim at the heart of his host, and or dered him instantly to finish the crow. Angry expostulations, prayets, and entreat ies were usele=s thing`. There was shoot in the American eve then. as there had been in the English eve before. There was no help at hand, and he took a bite of the crow (Me bite teas enough to send all the good dinners he had eaten lately on the satne journey with the ganisoa fare of the soldier. and while the Vnglishman was in the agony of sickness, Jonathan escaped to the Ameri eau Ilion..

THE CORALITE AND PORCELAINTEETH have in- . augurateil a new era in the science of dentistry—being the very best Artificial Teeth now in nse, they can be a.fforded at prices that place them within the reach of all. • ' Being Mb first to introduce these new styles of work to this community, I accordingly fixed such prices as I deemed would remunerate the best artistic and me chanical skill. Since then, however, the unprecedented favor with which the work has been received, has corn- pelted other Dentists to adopt it, some of whonOwish to - retain the gold pinto prices, which I consider would be exorbitant; for, though the now styles are really: more valuable than the best gold work, they are made of less expensive material. The increased amount of work done also compensates for the reduction in price. On the other hand, a few Dental Quacka of this city, who possess neither mechanical skill or common hon esty, Advertise the work at prices slightly less than my own, notwithstanding theft have neither the - ability nor the right (it being patented) to manufacture it. The object of this trickery iserely to obtain an opportu nity to disparage the Corsi'tond Porcelain and recom mend some of teem own w0r,,....%5s work. I have felt bound, in justic.yself and the public, to make known these facts. - . ."4.1W.„,s ANr,'"` The qualities of the PORC D CORALITE PLATE TEETH, which establish great superior( ty over the best gold or other metalic plate are—entire free. dom from all metalic taste, smell or tartish: being In. corrodible and impervious to the juices.ef the mouth: perfect:adaptation or tit, (impossible in metalic worka which, with much greater strength and lightness, ena bles them to be worn with more ease, comfort and utili ty.
