A severe gale Irom the toutheast visited this city on Saturday, and occasioned considerable damage 10 buildings and wharves, as well as merchandise stored on the margin oft ha North and.

rw iv iiiu UUlf IUUiUUIIi UVl TV 111 I ars hare been patiently waiting for about four o'clock. We have endeavored to gather thPir claims. The number inc areii the pailicu'ara of the various disasters that have happened in our harbor and elsewhere, all ot which will be found below All the wharves on the eastern aide oi the city po.

The gorern ment will at last be inevitably driven to devise some mora convenient ana speeay mode of settling these claims than by submitting them to the consideration and decision of Congress. Tat Arono Assocutioh. An etsociation has been formed in this city which takes iw name from the Apollo Gallery, No. 410 Broadway, where Mr. Herring has lately opened lor public exhibition a collodion of paiutings.

The object of the association Is, in our opinion, excellent on. The members are to pay yearly, the Bum of five dollars, which will be appropriated to the purchase of the works oi American artists. A committee wdl be appointed to select the picture to be purchased, and itj are atterwards to be di imoni the numbers by lot. When it is con wiww ag eidered how few persons in tbia couatry can afford to purchase paintings of high merit aud elaboration, the utility of such a scheme is apparent. It is a proposal to do by union and association what cannot be done by individuals singly.

We are per suaded that it needs nothing but good management and the members can regulate its management aa they please to make it a most effectual means of encouraging the fine artaln this country. The same plan has been tried in various other countries with an effect. There is an association of the same nature Edinburgh, which numbers among its members persona residing in nearly unreolcd, the tin being rolled up by the force of the wind like a roll of sactt lead. The brewery in Willctt street was unrooted, as also the following building the roof of the church corner of Madison and Catharine streets the ware house of Lord Taylor, 63 Catbatino street the large stoieot Mr. C.

Barilett, in Fulton near Gold street, covered with a tin roof. Six ol a block of new three story houses, on the Third Avenue, between 17iu and lSih streets had the root, rafters, planking, Sic. blown off. The roof ol a houee in the 3d Avenue, near 15th street. The roof of a bouse corner of Second Avenue and Tenth street The cupola and root oi the church in 22J street, were much damaged, aa was also the spire of the church in Great Jones street.

The wing of Mr. Hoe's machine shop was aLio unrooted. The tin roof of No. 9 Stono street was party dis placed. A sugar house in Broome street unrooted.

The chimnies of tho following buildings were blown down A chimney belonging to the rear part ef Tammany Hall. Two chimnies of a dwelling house in Market the chimney of a house in Greenwich street several cbimnics were also blown down in Bioadway, neat the Park and at Whitehall, and indeed in almost every part of the city. On the North side of the city, West and Wasli ington streets, were completely covered with water and the cellars of stores tilled. The damage both 11 parts of Scotland. Among the Scotch, as among there and on the East side must have been immense.

the Americans, there are tew men ot princely fortunes who can afford to be munificent, but numbers Wbo are willing to contribute something towards, cherishing the fine arts, with the chance of getting a good picture in return. Accordingly the arts ot painting and sculpture have not met with much encouragement in Scotland until the late establishment ot the association of which we speak. Its effoct liaa been to awsken a new interest in the eubjoct. Pictures purchased and distributed by the association find theii way to the remotest parts of Scotland, and their arrival is a cause ot general pleasure ana congratulation. In Bavaria, also, where the fine arts flourish perhaps more than in any part of Europe at this moment, tbe munificence of the sovereign, who spends all be can save ot his annual income in erecting public buildings and filling them with pictures and statues, is very effectually seconded by a similar as sociation, which as established some years since.

In Bavaria also private fortunes are so moderate, as in general to put it beyond the power of individuals to purchase good pictures. By the arrangements of the association, however, which includes among its members men belonging to all parts of Germany, a great number of pic tures are annually purchased and distributed, and you will find artists travelling and studying in Italy, supported by what they derive Irom tbe sale of thrir works to the association. A certain number of pictures are also annually engraved at the ex pense ot the association, and the impressions distributed ameng all the members. We hope the proposed scheme will prove successful, because we believe it is precisely adapted to tbe state of our country, and because we believe that it will extend to tho fine art" a degree ot encourage. ment which cannot lor centuries be expected to arise in any other manner.

A meeting of subscribers to the association takes place to morrow evening. The Dimocratic Rtvitw. The Washing correspondent of a morning paper holds the fol. lowing language respecting the article on tbe Ca nadian Question, in the Democratic Review for the present month. MThe number for January has some singular articlesparticularly one in relation to the late events ol' Canada, which may be considered as con taming the reserved and undeveloped opinions ol the cabinet on that very important question.

In this article several opinions are stated, with almost an official stamp. First It is said that England dare not go to war with the United States, whatever bo the course of the latter on the Canada question. Heeond that the revnltion in Canada is not over, it is only un and Third that there ia no doubt of the renewal of the insurrection at a future time, with belter plans, more efficient troop, and finer leaders. There i also a strong impression Lere that the last outbreak in Lower Canada was rcreily instigated by Sir John Colborne, for the purpose if giving himself an opportunity to pin it down, and to cover the resignation of Lord Durham with disgrace. We notice this paragraph for the purpose ot pro teting against its assumption of an official character for the speculation ot that bold aod striking paper.

Tbe reader it expressly cautioned against auch a conclusion by the writer himself, and the who'e object seems rather to be the vindication of Democratic principle as represented by our party. from the aspersion which those not versed in our peculiar national relations, and the high duties devolved upon the Executive in consequence, would be apt to throw upon both, for the course whth our government, under a solsmn and control ing sense of obligation has felt compelled to adopt during tho contest. Eloquently and ably is this pur pose effected and its appearance in such an organ of public opinion as the Democratic Review will do much good in this respect. The bridge leading to Castle Garden was covered by the tide, and the wind sent the swelling waves quite across the bridge. A number or tine club boats kept there (or protection were either lost or stove so aa to be useless.

The Yoik Club Barge, which cost $1000, was carried away and had not bean recovered at the last accounts. The Gull and the Columbia bavegoneto sea, boat houses and all. The Minerva knocked into a cocked hat. The Ariel atands the shock. The Pearl and Wakona survive.

J. no ater VY iicn is a ne D.ise ment of the Markets facing tho North and East Rivers were filled with the tide, and all the occupants obliged to seek refuge in the open streets. The refectories of course were deranged in such a manner as to render their further occupation impracticable without extensive repairs. The South Ferry bridge and offices attached were several feet in the water. In addition to the damage done by the water, the floating ice was carried over end on the wharves, a ad into the streets fronting the rivers, doing injury to stoops by beating against them, occasioned by the violence of the wind.

The greiiest damage occurred on the east side, where the full force of the wind was felt. The New Era this morning has the following "In the centre of the city the damage was compa. rativelv lizht. except in those streets running east and west. In Division street, the bow windows of two milliners' shops were torn on hy the wind, and, together with their contents, were carrrid aconsuJe.

rahle distance down the street It was ali rumored that a miliner's husband, who was engaged in reading "The Sorrows of Water'' in the etore at the time, was carried off with other valuables. Of this, however, we cannot speak with certainty. A great number ot people assrmblcd under the bed of the Post office, lor the purpose of beholding ihe new lellry, now bing ereclrd upon lite City Hall, blown over. They were not gratified how. ever, although Ihe waving to and fro of that super' structure made it an interesting object to look at The terrv boats at the South Ferry and other pla.

ccs, were unapproachable save by rmitl boats, and a sood deal of amusement was caused br the el. forts of the passengers to reach them. A number of csnal boats were stranded. The damage done to vessels at the wharves is deiailed in the following extracts from the morning papers The brig Susan, which lay at anchor in the East rivrr. broke from her anehoragr, and was anven furiously into the dock, suflring some damage The schooner Sperry, lying at Pier No.

1, EiM river, had her siern and sides slave in hy the steam er Hercules, which also received some damage. Slooo Bclina. of Newark, N. bud her sti.rn and bows si ova in achr. Hannah, Tompkins, her stem and bows badly stove.

The brig Susquehanna dragged her anchors and drove against pier No. 4, East river, received some damage in her stern and bulwarks broke a spile off, and also a corner of the pier. The pilot boat Lafayette bad her larboard quarter stove in. Tbe ship L.ouis fhilippe was supposed to bo injured to tbe extent of 91,000. A number of disasters happened to vessels in the harbour; roepecting these, a correspondent of the Express writes as follows Statbm Islakp, Sunday P.

M. "The gale of yesterday afternoon was very severe. Several vessels from pea are ashore on tho south side, and much damage done. The gale was at its height at about 4 P. M.

The tide has seldom rose so high. The schooner Tasso, Cap. Baker, of Boston, 25 days from Ponce, Porto Kico, cargo sugars, coffee and molasses, is ashore about two miles south of the Elm Tree. She came into the Hook at 3 o'clock, in the height of the gale; it was so thick nothing could be seen. Capt.

B. brought his vessel to anchor, when she dragged. Capt. B. judiciously rut his masts and let them go over the side the vessel then brought up.

and at low water thumped the bottom. She lies very well and has mado no water, and it the weather should benuld will be got off without further damage. The captain has gone to the citv for a steamboat. Tho veskel is consigned to P. 1.

Parnham and cargo to B. Aymar Co. Spoke brig Francis, of Bath, 4 days from Boston, for Mittanza. The schr Chesterfield.of Hudson.from Richmond, with cargo of flour and coal is ashore high and dry a short distance from the Tasso her bowsprit carried away, iler cargo will be landed and the vessel may be got off the captain haa gone to New York for assistance no lives lost. The schr.

Oscar, from St Augustine, with 15,000 mulberry trees, is ashore near the Chesterfield she is also high and dry on the beach. A small schooner is also ashore further south. A brig ashore near the great Kiln, with both masts carried away. From the Narrows we can see a large ship at anchor near Kockaway with ail her masts gone. She is in a dangerous place, and steamboats ought to be sent to ber with all despatch.

Captain Karl telegraphed ber situation to town this moaning. The ship Nicholas Buidle bore down from tbe city this morning and went to sea she discharged her pilot at 12 o'clock. The packet ship Sheridan went to sea, she passed the Narrows at 1 o'clock. Another ship, several brigs and schooners, all went out safe wind at west and strong. The damage done to the wharves is considerable.

Thai at the Quarantine ground, where the emigranta land, is broken and injured much. The docks and bridges nesr Nautilus Hall are ripped up. The dock, at the Bay house and the Seamen' a retreat much injured. All the bridges along the road, from Van Duzen's to Mr. To nsend's bouse, are all carritd away.

The roads having been overflowed are much injured. The shore lined with timber, spars, and broken fragments A number ot small boats are dashed to pieces. Considerable injury must have been done on the north side by the rise of tide, but as that part of the island was sheltered from the wind the small craft did not suffer. There must be a good deal of injury done on the Long Island side. The Gate did little damage at Brooklyn, on'y'o vetflowing the cellars immediately facing the river.

In Jersey the effects of the gale must have been distressing. The roendowa between Jersey City and Newark were one vast lake, the waters being lashed about by tbe fury of tho wind like a greet sea. The werks ot the Morris canal were injured materially a bridge and a large quantity ot cca' were swept off. The Owege mail waa lost, together with one of the horses snd a wagon the driver escaped. The bags, however, have pearly all been recovered.

Loss or Lire In the midst c( all these occurrences, we regret to note the lor of life by an individual while walking tbe streets nnconcious ol dan ger. During tlie gale Mr. John S. F. Rsndolpb, one of the firm of Morse Randolph, dealers in flour, No.

1 West street, while passing along the west side cf Chatham street in fioat of Mr. flutch i is's shoe store, was suddenly killed by a blow on the head from a piece ot awning post occasioned by the violence of the wind. Although medical aid was at hand instantly, nothing could be done to re store animation. His death was instantaneous. A coroners jury rendered a verdict ol accidental death.

Truly, in the midst of life, we are in death." The Southern and Eastern and Northern mails are all detained somewhere on their routes by tbe obstruction caused by the wind, rain and ice. We fear that the accounts Irom coast as well as the intciior, will present a melancholy listol disasters. The mill sites and other buildings situated on the margin of creeks and rivers must be destroy ed by the rush ot water. The ground had previously bucn frozen so as to prevent the absorption ol the rain which tell so copiously, anil to cause a sudden rise ot the water The wind, however, changed to the Northwest sudJenlyon Saturday night, and brought with it an extreme alteration in the temperature, freezing up every thing, and thus checking in some decree, orobablv. the effects of 3 I rf.

the storm. Accounts from Philadelphia as late as last eve nine mention the can vina awav ot the bridge at Gray's Perry. The fresh has caused the greatest inundation perhaps ever known in the Schuylkill. No wharves are lobe be seen. The water rose seventeen feet above low water mark.

Banks, under charters troin the State, having always been viewed in the light of monopolies, tending to make the poor oorer and the rich richer, induced both political parties, during the last scs sion of the to establirh by law Free Banking, whereby the monopoly has ceased; and it appears to bo the freneral opinion tiat tho bunk notes are renJereJ more secure in the hands of the holders, inasmuch as each dollar bill is the representative of a dollar of State stock and real estate secured to the state as a trust fund to redeem tho notes of such banks as may refuse to redeem them with specie. But is it wise to continue the operation of two distinct ystems of banking the State longer than circumstances demand it However secure the notes ot tho banks under the Salety Fund system may be, and Ihe writer uf this never doubted their bung secure, wouiu nol be better to so amend the law of 1323 as to ena ble such banks as require additional capital, and such as require an extension ot their ennrters, arm there are several such applications now before the Legislature, to immerse their existing capitals into associations under the law ol the last sescion, whenever three fourths of their stockholders imv consent, so as to hasten the time when there shall be but onobankinz svsicin in this state 7 Whilst public opinion was so generally expressed against the monopolies granted to hanks under thrir charters, in which charters the rate ot interest that they are allowed to charge lor the use ot capital is fully expressed it is strange, passing strange, that a greater and more daugerou9 class ot monopolies continue unnoticed either by the press or the legis lature, monopolies the ctlect ot wlucn is Itlt by every person, whether rich or poor, who hires a bouse or tenement Iwwcver small. Why should not the business of Insurance be as tree as banking? I cannot see any good reason hy there should not be a lawuthonzing associations to be formed for the insurance againai.

loss by fire and water on a plan similar to thatot banking, so as to crjato a fair competition instead ol the combinations now existing. Although it may be generally believed thst the heavy premiums uf insurance now paid to the incorporated companies are born by the landlord's who pay them t'orlheirown security ihe fact is far ff nt, for every landlord that lets a homo or tenement calculates the value of his property ami all incidental charges, among which insurance is a heavy item, and he asks a rent from the tenant sumcient to cover it all, and this is one of the causes ot high rents. Several ol the companies with small capitals cf 2 or 9300,000 take riks to the amount of from 10 to '20 millions at premiums about 50 per cent higher than ever was known before the great tire, and these heavy premiums and immense amounts for which they grant policies, giving a mere imaginary se cunty to the owners, account for the taru dividends of 10 or 12 percent, per annum and tlelirg extra dividends oi 16 or 15 per cent, on stock that are Irequently declared hy ihe incorporated companies, a very large proportion of which is born by those who are comprlled to hire houses or tenements. There is an other evil arising out of three incorporations, for by a mutual understanding between ihem the few existing companies, the same rales of premium are demanded by all of thim, therefore there is no competition. Any member of the Legis'ature thit will bring in a bill authorising the establishment of aesoc'a'ions tor fire and marine insurance will be a public benefactor.

A TENANT. Introductory Lecture delivered at the OPENING OF TUB ALBANY EPICAL CoLlECE. By Divid Meredith Reese, A. M. D.

HolTman White, Albany, 1939. After some preliminary remarks on the dignity and importance of the medical profession, this address exhibits the grounds on which tbe New Medical College of Albany rests its appeal to confidence and support. It is a fair speci men of the peculiar style ot Dr. Reese and places the claims of the new institution in which be has been appointed to a professorship, in a clear light We learn that ihe Jersey City Ferry Boats have to come iato tbe East River, on account of tbe float ing ice in the Hudson. For the same reason the Elizabeth Town Point Boat comes into Whitehall.

Large fields ot ice are in the North and Eist Rivers. Wind fresh from the WestN. West, and very cold. Esecotive Nominations. The Senate at Albany are daily occupied with private discussions relative to Ihe nominations sent in by the Governor.
