THJC SEW CODE AM AJIESPKB-It would be veil for those who wart to aaxtea that i th farther duty of perfecting the new Coda ar Fro-eadora should ba 4volTel th.

We hare not time to collate aH then alterations, but we will glance at a few of the more eharaotenstle.

In tha following ex tracts, the alteration of tha legislature are itai: cited. fee. 140. AU tha forml of pleading heretofoie axiiticg, inconsistent tcilh the provisions of thit act, are abolished." 1 bis alteration reTiree all tha old rules of pleading, wherever they can ba eeastrued (and by hostile in terpreter!) to be additional to, and not inconsistent with, the code. Bat the tinkers did not know bow to carry oat the alterations and they left standing fiction 111, which defines the causes for which a de murrer may bo taken so that, though the old rules are revived, nobody need regard them, since no mode is prescribed by which they can be enforced.

iSection 140 The answer shall contain, in re-rjiect to each allegation of the complaint controverted by the defendant, a general or jpecifie denial thereof," ice. The alteration was doubtless intended to open the door for general denials, (or general issues,) a mode of answer which puts the plaintiff" to the proof of everything in his complaiat, and conceals the real defence. But here again the ability was wanting to carry oat the will, and section 168 was left untouched, which provides that every material allegation of tha eomplant, not specifically controverted by tha answer." shall be taken a true. So that the permissioa to a defendant to pat in a general denial would only mislead him to an admission Sec. 193.

"The Court may likewise, in iU discretion, allow an answer or reply to bo made, or otfirr act to be done, after the time limited by this act," Jco. This alteration gives the court power to repeal the statute of limitations, and allows an action to be commenced, or an appeal to be taken, any number of years after the time fixed by law But here again there is no harm dona for tha act doe not touch pre-existing rights of action, and before a subsequent one can come within its operation that is, by ne: winter tha alteration will of course ba dene away with. Section 307. "When aUowed, costs shall ba as follows To either party on appeal, excepting to the Court of Appeals, before argument fifteen dollars, for argument thirty dollars. But thit provision thall not apply to appeal in cases other titan thote mentioned in lection 349." Section 319 relates to appeals from orders.

Appeals from the judgments of a special term or county court can be had withont costs. The intention was, doubtless, just tha reverse, to give cost on appeals from judgments, 4nd not from orders. Section 349. An appeal may, in lika manner, and within the same time, ba taken from an order made by a single judge of the sain court, and may be, thereupon, reviewed in the following cases 3. IVTun the order decide a question of practice, which in effect dettrminu the action, without trial, or preclude! an appeal." Could any thing be more reasonable than to give an appeal from an order, whioh precludes an appeal 1 Sec.

472. Nothing in thit act contained, thall be taken to repeal tection 23 of article 2 of title 5 of chapter 6, part 3d, of the Revised Utatutet," fyc. The section intended was 22. The third edition of the Revised Statutes was mistaken for the first, that was all It is unnecessary to multiply evidenco of the folly of committing so important and comprehensive a work a the construction of a code of law to a large legislative assembly, and least of all to tha legislature ef the state of New York, and we hope by this time the legal profession have become fully sensible of it. The Albany Atlas, alluding to the legislative amendments which did not prevail, says i "The most pernicious one, of requiring the plaintiff to state in his complaint whether he sought relief according to the prinoiples of law or equity, upon which change the Senate committee reasoned so elaborately and plumed themselves so much, was cast away in the Senate itself; and the other, which gave ordinary civil jurisdiction to county courts, was cast away in the Assembly.

The sting was thus taken oat of the Senate project and everybody then saw that the only thing to be done was to fall back upon the commissioners' recommendations and pass them nto law. This was wisely done. There are some curious alterations in phraseology, iniiduously made, and doubtless with a sinister design, an the part of their suggesters. of making important changes, but the ability was lacking of adapting other parts in the code to such alterations, and by consequence they are harmless. We could point to several amusing specimens, but it is hardly worth while." Some changes not very material in their general effect deserve the immediate notioe of the profession These changes are dispensing with the service of a copy of the complaint ut the time of summoning thede-dofendant dispensing with the depositions of witnesses who reside more than a hundied miles from the place of trial, requiring instead their personal attendance from any other part of the state and giving over to the judges the power to determine when and how long they shall hold their court.

Tha Operation or the Sub-Treaawrjr The recent developments in the United States Marshal's Office have illustrated the beneficent operation of the sub-treasury law in so striking a manner, that we had determined to make it the occasion of special comment. The task, however, has been fully performed by a respected correspondent, to whose communication we have pleasure in inviting the attention of our readers. Ms. Editor: Your correspondent, Vindex, who does not quite vindicate his friend, Mr. Peck, ba at least shown, if hi statements are not contradicted, that he has been only an accouiplioe, after the fact, in the defalcation at the Marshal's office, and that he has been brought into that position by the contrivance of others, and without share in the eriminalty or its profits.

Qui capit illefacit," the real criminal is be who took tha money, and it is to be hoped that this investigation will reach that man, be he who he may. But there Is matter in these proceedings more important to the public than the exposure or, defence of any of the individual characters concerned and that is the light they cast on tha working of a gieat principle now in danger, perhaps, of being discarded by our rulers I mean the principle of the Sub-Treasury. Before the sub-treasury, defaulting Marshals had easy and prosperous times. They received large sum.i, aocounted for large sums, and reserved large balances to meet contingent payments and expenses and it was impossible to regulate exactly the amounts it was necessary for them to keep in hand against the future, where the receipt were altogether uncertain and fluctuating. Out of the largest amount they were thas allowed to retain, they embesslsd all that could be spared from the necessities of the office and thus, while they had in fact perhaps a balanoe varying from one dollar to five thousand, their accounts at Washington would show that they bad fifteen or twenty thousand, and the Secretary of the Treasury have no means of knowing much of this was imaginary.

But when the sub-treasury was established, this system came to an en d. Orders arrived to pay over this fifteen or twenty thousand dollars into the vault, and it was necessary to raise it and pay it over. Then the government sent them ten thousand dollars for contingent expenses, and directed all sums received in the office from other sources, to be paid over as received and at once, to the sub-treasury. The accounts sent to Washington could not pas without the vouchers for such payment against each receipt aid out of this rigorous necessity arose immediately great difficulty in covering up the deficiency which before had been concealed easily. The first ten thousand dollars received for future expenses, went immediately to the sub-treasury, to help make good the balance dae by the accounts and how the remaining amount required was raised we do not know.

but it seems to have been covered eventually by the bold step of not only embexiling money received, but leaving oi m. accounts altogether. Each quarter or aceountina; day became a time of pressure and distress. Clerks and others were made to sirn receipts beforehand vouchers were thus manufactured for monies not yet paid, and were sent oa with the accounts to get the next supply, Intended for the future, but absorbed, the instant it by tha past. At last by mean of the specie from the bark Laurens, all was for a time made smooth and right.

So credit was given the government or anybody else for that amount, and it covered all the other defal cations. It brought back time like the old day of Coating balance but only for a season the bark claims her money, and there is now no float ing balanoe to go back upon the mystery is revealed. Mr. Editor, do wa not find in all this a clear answer to on of tha hackneyed arguments of the adversaries of tha sub-treasury Do ws not see a strong proof and example of Ihe tightness of tha pria-a'ple and of it benefits 1 The sub-treasury system make government say to tha functionary pay ut the dollar job receive ia year business, and pay out the dollar tend yo. Nonsense replies tha marshal, what is the use of taking thif dollar front me, aad sending uotto Bt tbif.

Ml STf J9W i i v. v- self the troabic. No, says tha gwerneeent; if the dollars eo tod into yowr hand, art entod thane into the vaults, it will ha whether they tally, and en immediately- If dollar allotted tor your expense araaowntod out to ytm for that per-posa, they will ba adjusted to year want, and made sufficient, aad a saor. Fat that money under lock aad key, spend this for your disbursements, and than if jo cheat me yea mast falsify your accounts, which infallibly, before tha mischief is very great, will lead to roar detection. Such has been tha course in this instance.

This deficiency under the sab treasury became as looonvo-oieat that measure ware taken and something really was done toward reducing it while I think tha experience af the whole world will hoar me oat in asserting, that had tha old system continued it would and most have gone on increasing, till at last when exponu became inevitable from the greatness of the sam, everything within reach would have been at once engulphedin it and a crash would have followed in which the bark Laurens and her specie would have counted a (mall dust in the balanet. I hope reflecting men of all partie will reflect on the moral of this story, and mark its application in favor of the sub-treasury. The whigs are not a wiae party, but they may see so plain a matter as this if they trill see anything. I have no doubt they ar already preparing amoag themselves the experiment which ar to finish them, bat there are decencies in suicide; and if they seek theso they will ehooee any other method, rather than dash their brains ont against the sub-treasury. Yours See.

CARD. Editor In a morning paper of to-day, is an artiol from a Sunday paper of yesterday, referring to the alleged defalcation of the present United States Marshal, which says A fact not generally known, but fully developed by the present occurrences, is now brought to light the friends ef Mr. Rapelye furnished sureties for three of the Marshals, on eondition that he should have entire control of the finances by virtue of his position in the bureau. To facilitate the arrangement, Mr. Bleeck-er executed an assignment of ail the emoluments of the office to his chief deputy, thus rendering Mr.

Rapelye Marshal de facto. This ingenious precedent was followed by StiUweU." As my name has been improperly used in the above connection, it may be proper for mo to say, that as far as I am concerned as one of the three marshals alluded to in the above extract, the statement is wholly unfounded. I wa United State Marshal for sixteen months, in 1839 and 1S10, (without telling my office or myself to get it.) 1 enjoyed its whole receipts, less the pay of my deputy, and when removed by President Tyler, it was solely on party grounds, and while the government was in my debt. I had no such arrangement to for the simple reason that neither Mr. Rapelye or his friends furnished sureties for me, but were under heavy bonds fome for the faithful performance of his duties as deputy.

My sureties were David Baaks and Thomas W. Sat-torthwaite. ANTHONY J. BLKECKER. California Emigration.

The St. Louis papers contain interesting statement from Independence, the point of departure for the overland expedi tions to California. A large number of emigrants are collected at that place and at St. Josephs. At Independence the number is estimated at from three to five thousand The expenses of living were very great, and the prospect ef an early start was not very cheering.

The companies could not move until the grass had started sufficiently to afford a support for their stock. The weather was intensely cold on the 13th and 14th, making ice of considerable thickness, and there was scarcely a sign of buds upon the trees, or of grass on the plains. Under these circumstances many of the emigrants had become discouraged and returned. Among the adventurers at Independence, in a company from Richland, Ohio, was a beautiful and intelligent female, of the age of sixteen, who, being an orphan, in company with her brother, has determined to cast her lot in the gold region of California.

Only a few of th small party had arms, which they discharged aponthe mass and slowly retreated, bearing off one of the party wounded in the leg by a pistol ball.

From the crie uttered by some persons in tha crowd, one of the gentlemen who fired inform me that their discharge must have taken effect.

Mount Washington School Examination. Ths public exhibition of this popular Seminary, under the charge of Clark Sc Fiday night at the Lecture room, 750 Broadway. The room was so crowded that many person were unable to obtain entrance.

The exercises were of the most entertaining and interesting character. The recitations in Greek, Latin and English were delivered with an ease and self possession quite unusual for pupils so young. The most attractive part, perhaps, was the discussion in which the contrasted evils and benefits of the discovery in California were enumerated with mueh logical readiness and skill at disputation. Their performance would have been creditable to much older heads. The exercises were numerous and varied, and relieved by excellent music.

The result could not fail to be gratifying to all who tak an interest in the proper education of youth. Henry Worrall, Esq Our readers will tee, by reference to our obituary head, that this old and respected citizen has deceased.

Another Mcrdkr. Yesterday afternoon at about 5 o'clock, a young man about twenty years of age, a native of St Johns, Not Brunswick named James Monahan, was stubbed with a bocket knife in the left side, and died in a few minutes. The circumstances of the case were- as follows At the time referred to the deceased was engaged talking to some girls in Anthony-st. near Centre, when a party of five men, consisting of William Thompson, Jonathan Hillenworth, James Quinn, James Eustice, and another whose name could not be ascertained, approached or passed by, and, as it is understood made some remarks, at which Monahan took umbrage and replied to them in a manner which gave offence. Angry words followed on both sides, which resulted in Thompson drawing a knife from his pocket and stabbing Monahan with it just below the left breast, between.the fifth and sixth ribs, and doubtless penetrating the heart.

Monahan fell into Ihe arms of Officer Watson, who had just arrived at the spot, and instantly expired. The only words uttered by Monahan after receiving the fatal wound, were, I'm stabbed but Thompson was seen by James News of No. 143 Anthony street, also by a colored man, to. stab Monahan, then shut his knife and again put it in his pocket, where it was subsequently found on being exanined at the police court, but no blocd was found on any part of it. Officer Watson and Dowling, after placing the body of Monahan in the charge of others to convey to the Station House, proceeded to hunt up the parties concerned in the murdor, and soon succeeded in arresting the before-named persons, the other one having escaped, who were taken to the Lower Police Court and.

committed to prison by Justice Lathrop to await the result of the Coroner's inquest, which will be held some time to-day, when many additienal facts will probably be elicted. The deceased was a saddler by trade, and formerly worked for Thomas Lee, but lately was employed at Mr. Hecker's Flour Mills, corner of Market and Cherry', streets.
