Important Movement. wa axw gniujtw fesuu .14. uiu v. vwrnci New York, ex Gov. Paine and Gen.

I. W. C. Clarke, of Vermont, P. Greeley, of Bos ton, aad others, In company with Senator Rosk, of Texas, have arrived in this city on their way to Texas, whither they will depart by the steamer of the 12th Inst.

The gentlemen composing this party represent large railroad and moneyed interests, and the entire confidence or heavy capitalists of the Northeastern States will be given to the report they may make on their return to New York and Boston. It is their intention, we learn, to jnake a tour of reconnoissance through the conn. try, which now appears likely to be the theatre of magnificent railway enterprises, taking their departure from li aires ton ana proceeding, ria Houston, Austin, dec, to El Paso, and returning os. some more northern line towards Memphis and Vlcksburg. The great moneyed strength and influence with capitalists which these gentlemen represent together with the knowledge and large expert.

nee they possess as practical railroad men, will enable them to proceed with the work of eon street! on without delay and before the meeting of the next Congress, and to prosecute it with energy and expedition, should the result of their examinations prove as favorable as may be anti dpated, and should such judicious and liberal legislative aid and encouragement as the magni tnde aad importance of the great project demand, be extended by Texas and other States which the contemplated road will traverse. From the well known zeal and ability with which the extraordinary claim of the Southern rwute for the Pacific railway have been presented and advocated in the Senate of the United States mad elsewhere, by Uen. Bosk, and rrom the Tact tbat be is now accompanied to the proposed general line of this route by gentlemen of the character and standing and the powerful means we have referred to, we are justified in looking erpoa, the movement now making as likely to prove of the highest practical and economical importance. We doubt not the party will meet with a cordial reception In Texas. Oua Consuls th East.

Mr. Bryant, of the New York Evening Post, who is now pur suing bis travels in the East, has, in a letter dated at Smyrna, drawn attention to the extra onunary powers possessed by American Consols 'la the Turkish dominions. They have in fact a power nearly absolute on the lives and property of all Americans who come within their consular reach. These powers grow out of the public law and usages of the Ottoman Empire, which are specially sanctioned by oar treaty with the Sultan, aad by acta of Congress' sanctioning and confirming the usage. By the treaty, citizens of the United States who maybe sojourning in the Turkish dominions, are protected against all molestation, unless charged with some crime or offence, and even when charged with any such offence, they are not to be arrested and put into prison by the local authorities bat the Minister or Consul has the power to try and punish them.

In the provinces this right of arrest and imprisonment is so absolute that the has no right even to inquire into the cause or the arrest until after the expiration or three days In the meantime the Consul may deal with the prisoner as summarily and as capriciously as be please. A law of our Congress was passed in Testing In our Consul in Turkey the judi da! power to execute this treaty, to issue his warrants for the arrest of any citizen of the United State charged in Turkey with any oSaneo "against law," to arraign and try him, and on conviction, to sentence him to fine and Imprisonment. The law of Congress makes provision for capital punishment in certain cases but if a Consul should desire to hang up ma American at any time within three days after arrest, there is nothing in the Turkish law which will save them or authorize interposition. These powers make the consulships in Turkey places of extraordinary trust, and require the selec tion of Consuls to be made with extreme caution as to the capacity and knowledge of the officer, who kt to enjoy such despotic control over bis eoeatrymen so far away from the protection of inetr own law. They were meant, and are pro ably, in some degree, necessary for the protec of Americans against arbitrary treatment by the Turkish authorities; but they are excep onai in their character, and demand a higher arwie talent and official experience in their oU' foreign consulships, 0ur rorei mission.

We have received a communication sigw "One or the la reply to some re marks which we made upon the resolutions adopted at the last meeting of the Board of Assistant Aldermen, relative to the assets of the late corporation and the consolidated debt We regret our space will not permit us to publish the communication. We think, however, our eor respondent will find most of his arguments an tfrJnatut in ill. nn.H mada when the ub jeet was first agitated. It seems to us the whole question lies within very narrow limits. What does the law require i.

and Intent of the act of eanaolldation as affecting the disputed question A correct answer of these interrogations deter mi.M th whole controversy. Where the terms 'of the law are unequivocal, we cannot depart from its plain requirement under the pretence of obtaining equity. Where there is no doubt about the intent or letter of the act of consolidation, we may not transgress its provisions under the plea of doing justice. It is the duty of the Common Council to carry oat, and not endeavor to evade the act of consolidation. For example, the commissioners are directed to divide the debt of the old corporation between the several municipalities in proportion to the assessed value of real estate within the limits of earn, accord.

ing to the State assessment roll for 185l." Upon the principles assumed by our correspondent and other advocates of the resolutions in que lion, relative to political corporate existence the above provision of the act of consolidation is a bore violation of equity. But who proposes to disregard it We make these remarks merely to direct attention to the true and only issue, to wit the requirement of the city charter. We express no opinion upon the intrinsic equity of the object which the resolutions propose to effect, simoly because the act of consolidation beioc in our opinion perfectjy clear and conclu sive upon the whole question raised, we do not think such an opinion pertinent to the'inquiry. We should not forget, in discussions of this kind, to distinguish between the city of New Orleans and its officers. The free white inhabitants of New Orleans are the body corporate into whose possession and ownership have passed all the property and assets of the defunct corpora tions, and which has assumed all their debts.

The legislative power of this corporation is vested in a Common Council, the executive power in the Mayor and other officers. The duties of each department of the government are defined. The executive may not trespass upon the legislative, nor vice vena. The authority of the two branches of government i coordinate, being derived from the same instrument. But the act of consolidation, though placing the general administration of the affairs of ths city in the hands of the Common Council, Mayor, dec.

has created another body called the Commis sioners of the Consolidated Debt of New Orleans, with special powers and for a specific purpose. The authority of this body being exceptional, its powers and duties must be strictly construed but so far as they are distinctly enumerated, being derived from the same instrument, they are coordinate with those of the other branches of government. The Common Council can no more supervise or alter the acts of the commis sioners in their sphere, than the latter can do the like thing to the Common Coun cil. The commissioners were vested exclusively with the power and duty of ascertaining and apportioning the indebtedness of the old corporations at the date of consolidation and of funding the same. They were entrusted with the city's credit and empowered to issue the bonds of the new city in exchange for the obligations of the old corporations, or to sell the new bonds and apply tbeir proceeds to the payment of the old debt.

But her, their powers end So far, however, they are exclusive and entirely free from the control of the Common Council It is precisely because the resolutions assume to the Common Council a control over the action of the commissioners in their legitimate sphere that we oppose their adoption. We think the resolutions contemplate an assumption of power on the part or the Council of which it was pur. posely deprived by the Legislature. If the commissioners erred in fixing the amounts of the indebtedness of the several districts, the Common Council cannot correct the error by its own action, because it nas no juris diction over that matter, any more than the Board of Commissioners can correct the errors of the Common Council. Again, the powers of the commissioners being exceptional and subject to a strict construction, and no authority to receive asset being given to them by the act of consolidation, the commis sioners are clearly incompetent to take or use the assets of the old corporations.

We regret our space has not permuted us to notice in detail the arguments of our correspondent. There are several errors into which we think be has fallen and which we should have been glad to have pointed out. A Military Incident. It is our good fortune to be able to record one of those pleasing incidents that occasionally occur to give a higher and better notion of the bum an heart, and elevate our ideas of mankind in gen eral. The Louisiana Greys, Capt.

Francis Leech, one of our finest bodies of citizen soldiery, paraded on Satnrday last, and visited the lake vi Carrollton, for the purpose of target shooting. The parade was intended to celebrate the third anniversary of their re organization, and was very and gratifying affair. After the close of the target shooting, the company, with its invited guests, consisting Cols. Wood, Floyd, and a number of other military gentlemen, sat down to a fine dinner at the Lake Hotel Toasts were given, and appropriate remarks made, and at the close of them the company re turned by the Jefferson and Lake Pontchartrain Railroad. On their return to their armory In this city, tired with the marching and amuse ments of the day, it was recollected by some one present that CoL Ward, of Austin, who com manded the company on the day when it captured San Antonio from a Mexican force oat numbering it as ten to one, was sojourning for a short time in the city.

This fact was communi cated to Capt Leach, with the expectation that he woold notify the company of the fact, and request them on some subsequent day to appear and pay their regards to their former com man But Capt Leach, with a promptitude truly military and commendable, immediately gave orders to form in line right face march," and marched the company off to the City Hotel, in quest of Col. Ward. We do not recollect the particulars of the fight San Antjmio, nor have we at present the time requisite to search for minute information. It is sufficient tq say that in 1836 the Louisiana Greys, then under the command of CoL Ward, In company wy.h a number of Texans the whole force not exceeding two hundred men attacked and took by storm the fortified city of San Antonio, garrisoned by a Mexican force of nearly two thousand men. They were compelled, on account of the superiority of the enemy and the peculiar character of the contest, to deviate from the established methods of capturing cities, and instead of sweeping through the streets under a galling fire from the windows and barricade, they entered the first house they came to, and progressed by cutting from one dwelling to another, until they reached the main body of the enemy, when the fighting was at once closed by brilliant and decisive victory.

In this gallant contest a great many of the men were killed, and Col. Ward lost a leg and an arm. With this brief summary of the olden story readers can better understand the character the meeting which took place between the Colonel and the company he formerly command The occasion was to him as unexpected as I it must have been gratifying. Indeed, he with some difficulty discovered, and was not apprised of the object of his captivity until he presented to the company, we nave neither time nor space to record the history of what occurred between them. Suffice it to say that such hearty meetings are rarely met with, and rarely recorded.

By the Nstfcmal tin. jVrw Yoax, Mf fly The New Haves train which ni oil the drawbridge at Norwich, this aaoming, consisted of six cars, and was running at the time of the accident at the rate of fifteen miles an hour. The draw was up to lot a schooner pass, bat the engineer failed to observe I it. althoush the usual sirnal was displayed. Up to 3 o'clock this afternoon forty bodies had been recovered, six of them females.

Some of them are horribly mangled. There are seventy nervous wounded, twenty of them dangerously 1 so. It is feared that altogether the number of 1 killed will amount to sixty persons. All tha conductors, enrineers. firemen, and others connected with the train escaped.

The excitement is most painful throughout the city, and it is impossible to obtain an accurate list of the sufferers. T. Dayton, of Houston, Texas, P. C. Dunbar and W.

unbar, of Montgomery, are among the saved. One ear is completely I submerged, and two others dashed to pieces. The baggage ears are now lying in the river. The spectacle of the scene of disaster is described as most horrible. Nxw Yoax, May 7.

Up to the present mo ment fifty bodies have been recovered. Twenty persons are etill missing, and there is one car yet submerged. The whole blame lana upon tne engineer, Tucker, who is severely injured. The fireman and engineer are both arrested. B.

Locser, a Southern gentleman, i among the desd. llickr, the artist, is also killed, and many i i meaicai men wno were returning iruui me meui cal convention in this city. Among them are Drs. Grey, Smith, Beach and Welsh. The Rev.

John Laher is also killed. Among the seriously injured are Richard I Grant, a Southern merchant, Drs. Warren and Griswold, Ben Harvey, and the Rev. Andrew Tenbroeck. The train plunged headloog off the bridge notwithstanding the usual signal was displayed and could be seen a mile distant.

So rapid was the motion that the train nearly leaped the draw. The mails have been recovered in a damaged state. At this moment the inquest is proceeding. Niw Yoax, May 7, r. m.

The search for the bodies of the victims still continues. Cannon are being fired to bring up the dead from the bot torn of the river. Many of the bodies recovered are so horribly disfigured that they cannot be recognized. The train leaped a distance of sixty feet. Two cars are still imbedded in the river and great efforts are being made to recover them, as they are supposed to contain passengers.

It is feared tbat the Roman Catholic Bishop of Connecticut is lost The iuquest is still proceeding. The conductor has been examined to day. He attributes the accident to the engineer. The Connecticut Legislature have appointed a committee to proceed to the sceue of the disaster to report a full statement of the Tacts. A b'li has been repor'ed imposing a fine of ten thousand dollars for every person killed on a railroad in the Slate.

Tber approached one wboM features bore traces mt anxiety aad sorrow sad with bowed form she gawd into the turbulent stream, as though she woald uUa descry somethiaf ar down la urn Bktaonuess depths.

A being of benifh and celestial aspect appeared at her side and said. What seeaest una, sorrowiai oner' "Alas! she answered, I wore a sparkling jewel upon my bosom. It was no paltry bauble, but a monarch's gift, aad invaluable. The wealth of India can yield none to match It. Ia an evil hour it dropped from its Rating place Into this dark river.

For a moment I saw it float near the brink, aad stretched out my band to regain it. but it was beyond my reach, and It sank down till I taw it no more. It is gone lost forever 1" And In deep gloom he turned to depart. "Stay, mourner Grieve not, but look again Into the waters!" She looked, and a cry of joy burst from her lips. "It is there I see it floating upon the dismal wave.

Oh! shall it not be mroe once more." The answer came Nay, but tbou art deceived. What thou seest is but the semblance of what was thine. Yet, turn thy eyes upward and rejoice." She obeyed, and beheld a star gleaming from a bright spot of uure in the murky tkv. whose rays gaye even the waves of tbat gloomy river tinge of brightness, and whose reflection there she had mistaken for her own lost gem. Then came a tender and musical voice, as the beautiful appearance vanished Mourner, these restless billows.

tbougb fearful and dark to thee, roll up to the gate of Heaven, i.rer faithful to tbeir trust, they bore the jewel which was leut, not given to thee, to its rightful owner, the monarch of Heaven and, transferred to his care, it will suine forever in bis glorious resting place. Tbe mourner departed with a countenauc thoughtful, yet cheerful; bergaxe no longer bent upon earth, or tbe river of death, but was meekly and trustingly raised to Heaven. And that (tar, beaming into her spirit with rays of hope and gladness, was, ever after. A VOICE FROM HE AVE IT! I shine in the light or God! His inisge stamps my brow!

Do you mourn when another star Shines out from the glittering sky Do you weep when the raging voice of war Or tbe storm of conflict die? Then wby should your tears run down i And your hearts be sorely riven. For another gem in the Saviour's crown, And another soul in Heaven i The Fourth ef March. A very old blunder is repeated in the fallow ing paragraph, which we have found in one of our exchange papers CmmHliment to Sundam. Do Our reasera svnrrmllw knnm the reason why tbe 4tb of Marcb was chosen as tbe day of tne inaagaraiioa 01 tne rreaiaent 01 tbe United Btatea? It was selected because the 4 th af Marcb in every fuur years. Sunday for at least three hundred years.

If this means that the 4th of March for the presidential inauguration every fourth year can not come on Sunday for at least three hundred years" from the day or the first inauguration, it is strangely forgetful that the 4th of Marcb, 1840, the day for' Gen. Taylor's inauguration, came on Sunday, as did the 4th of Marcb, 1825, the day of the inauguration or John Quincy Adams and it 1. 1 1 is strangely unobservant that the same thing will happen in 1677. IT it means that there is any peculiarity in the 4th of March, which dis tinguinhes it from any other day in the year, in regard to the succession of tbe days or the week upon which its anniversary occurs, the mistake is quite aa great. There is no day or the year exempt from the rule of invariably recurring sue cession, returning upon the same day of tbe week after a certain cycle of years.

In every twenty eight years the days or the month come back to the same days or the week in tbe same order. Tbe 4th or March, and even tbe 29th day or Feb ruary are no exceptions. Within that came pe nod every day in tbe ordinary year will have re curred four times ou every day or the week that is, there will have been four Sundays, four Mon days, four Tuesday, throughout to four Sa turdays each, for every day in the year, from January 1st to December 31st, inclusive, and there will have been one February 29th for each day of tbe week, from Sunday lo Saturday, in elusive, but not in the order as stated. The or der varies, so that each day of the year for every fourth year during the cycle will be on a differ ent day of the week, so aa to complete the week four times. Hence there will be a 4'h of March, aa well as a 1st, 2d and 3d or March, four times on each or the seven days of tbe week in every twenly eiqht years, dating forward from any year whatever, and counting backward as well as for ward but these days do not recur at intervals of seven years.

They at such intervals that the day of the month recurs upon a different day of the week every fourth year. The law of sue cession which establishes this rule as invariable is very simple in its principle, but it is as fixed as the astronomical data in which it finds its necessity. The notion therefore that the selection of the 4th or March for the inauguration or the first President was made from some special regard Tor a mysterious convenience in the day, rests on very singular ignorance or simple, natural and mathematical fact. But, in fact," the first in auguration did not take place on the 4th of March. Gen.

Washington was inaugurated on Thursday, the 30th of April, 1789. The 4th of March was designated by the old Congress a the day for putting the new constitution into operation, in a general resolution passed September 13, 1788, in these words: Retotved, Tbat tbe first Wednesday in January next be the day for appointing electors in tbe several States which Deiorethst day shall have rati Bed tbe constitution tbat the first Wednesday in February next be the. day for tbs electors to assemoie unaer tne new constitution ana vote for a President and tbat the first Wednesday in March next be the time, and tbe present seat of Congress tbe place, for commencing the proceedings under tbe new CUHIUIDUOS. These days were arranged for convenience at exactly one month apart and it will be per eeived that there is no direction for any inaugu ration of President on the first Wednesday of March, which happened to be the 4th. There was no inauguration until nearly two months afterwards.

The appointment of the old Con grees was for the first Wednesday in March not 4th day of March for the commence ment of the new Government. The constitution made no provision on the subject. The commencement or the presidential term was subsequently fixed by law. Congress, in March, 1792, passed an act regulating the elec tion or President and Vice President the same which is now in force with amendments made 1804, to co a form to the alteration of the eon. sfitution In regard to tbe mode of election.

By that act the first Wednesday of January was retained for tbe receipt or the electoral votes at Washington and the first Wednesday in Febrn ary for the counting and proclaiming them. The twelfth section, however, prescribes that the term of the President and Vice President shall, all cases, commence on the 4th of March next succeeding the day on which the votes of the electors shall have been given." This day was uudoubtedly selected because it was tire fourth anniversary of the first Wednesday in March, 1789, thus completing a full term since the Go vernment was first put into operation. The se lection was therefore one of accidental conve nience, and not of design, and was made by law by the constitution three years after the inauguration had taken place, on a different or the month. The venerable James Peebles, aged one hundred and one years, front Orford, N. visi the StateHouse in Boston, a few days ago, and, to the inquiry of a temperance man, replied tbat be had always drank at least one glass of ardent spirit a day.

In cl sen and the to ta sad 11 II E7 The Boston Post says that Miss Helen Cady was to have been married mt Danielson ville, on Thursday evening of week before last, to a Mr.

Chandler. The guests assembled to witness the ceremony, when it was ascertained that Ellen had changed her love and gone away with a Mr. Collar. It is evident that Helen preferred being Col lar ed rather than the wife of a Chandler. Our Barney says he expects shortly to hear of a lot of dickeys" as the fruits of this matrimonial union.

Many buildioga of a substan tial character are in progress of construction. At the meeting or citizens or Savannah on Wednesday last, to take into considaraUon Ihe proprtety or the City Council appropriating funds for the improvement of th. navigation of the river and harbor, the business was prompt ly iransacieu. a resoiuuon was adopted re questing tne uuy council to appropriate aiou.uuu, to be expended in improving the navigation the sum to be raised by the issue of seven per cent bonds. The meeting was organized, the pream ble and resolutions offered and carried, and the meeting adjourned, all in the space of ten minutes.

The $160,000 to be raised is to be added to appropriated by Congress for the same purpose. The Georgian says It is believed that the expenditure of this sum will add two feet to the denlh of tbe river. Br a further appropriation, which no doubt the future will provide, these two feet mar be increased to five, thus giving us a channel through which all vessels arawmg noi more than twenty leet may come up to the wharves of our city.
