To reduce the matter to simple arithmetic, we can make no yet. as to any amouut of good that has been we would advise thein to put their ingenuity to work and give us some useful aud practical reforms.

We would just remind the Common Council that it is now about time to look out in earnest and do something for the advantage of the city, to keep disease, in particular, from creeping iu amougst us during this broiling weather. The Mayor inaugural address, and the neglected condition of the entire ity, will afford them some useful hints for their guidance. A see.in the M.iroa's most amusing srene occurred on Monday afternoon iu the Mayor's Alee Two verdant Kuntuckians, who had arrived iu the city in the morning, with a drove of cattle, were taking a stroll through Broadway, and. when iu the nnguoorDoou or ivnn aireer. were attracted by a man in one of the stores in that vioinity, selling watches at auction.

They stepped in, and commenced one buying a and the other a tierman silver watch. '1 bey paid down eleven dollars for tb? watches and asked the auctieneer if they would "go;" to which he replied they would "Well," said one of thi in. "they are cheap as dirt and otT they started, delighted with their bargain. One of them put his watch to his ear. when he discovered that it would not "go;" and the other, upon trying his, discovered it to be in tho same condition.

They immediately started for the Mayor's office, with a view of laying their case before him. that their grievances might be redressed. They marched into the office, and laid their complaints before that functionary as follows: "Vf see, by golly sir, we're strangers here, and went to a place in Broadway to buy a watch a-plece. and one of 'em run a leetle bit. and the other won't run at all.

1 Bhould'nt kcer nothin' about It. but it was all the money 1 bad. and 1 wanted to buy some olothes. We're frr in old Kentuck. and that or fellow, (pointing to the younger,) Is a rale Kentuck sapplin'.

By jiininy riininy I want my money." The convulsed with laughter told thorn that it was out of his power to do any thing for them, but would get an officer to go with them, and sen if the man would give them their money back. The elder, who was chief spokesman then said: "1 say. 1 ahould'nt like for this to get In the newspapers. for daddy takes 'em, and I don't want 'am at home to know nothing about It." The Mayor consoled them as well as he could, when the lad looked up at the principal. saying "Vou'U buy another watch when you sell your cattle, won't "By golly if I had my way I'd throw the damn'd thing at bis head, and make a job of it.

It is probable they have ere this made np their minds to quit dealing in watches, especially at uuutIon.

The meeting en the first day was only acoessible to females, who diew up and signed a Declaration of Sentiments," which reads as in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one portion of the family.of man to assume among the people of earth a position different from that which they have hitherto occupied, but one to which the laws of nature and nature's Ood entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the that impel them to such a oourse. We hold these truths to be all men and women are created they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of to secure these rights governments are instituted. deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

Whenever aay form of government beg comes destructive of these ends, it is the right of those who suffer from it to refuse allegiance to it. and to insist upon the institution of a new government, laying its foundation on suoh principles, and organising its powers in such form, as to tliem shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient causes, and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer while evils uro sufferable. than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which lijcj wucu tram ui and usurpation. pursuing invariably tho inno object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotbm.

it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards Tor their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of the women under this government, and such is now the necessity which constrains them to demand the equal station to which they are entitled. The history of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward wo man. having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.

lie has never permitted her to exercise her alienable right to the elective franchise. He has compelled her to submit to laws in the formation of which she has had no voice. He has withheld from her rights which are given to the most ignorant and degraded men natives and foreigners. Having deprived her of this first right of a citizen, the elective franchise, thereby leaving her without representation in the halls of legislation, he has oppressed her on all sides. He bas made her, If married, in the eye of the law, civilly dead.

He has taken from lief all right in property, even to the wa.es she earns. He bas made her, morally, an irresponsible being, as she ran commit many crimes with impunity, provided they he done in ihe presence of her husband. In the covenant of marriage, she is compel ed to promise obedience to her becoming, to all intents and purposes, her law giving him power to deprive her of her liberty, and to administer chastisement He has so framed the laws of divorce as to what shall be proper causes of divorce, in ease of separation to whom the guardianship of the children shall bo given, as to be wholly unjust and regardless of the happiness of law in all cases going upon the false supposition of the supremacy of man. and giving all power Into his hands. After depriving her of all rights as a married woman, if single and the owner of property, he has taxed her to support a government wmcu recognizes ner only a hen her property can bo nude profitable to it.

lie has monopolized nearly all the means of profitable employment, and from those she is permitted to follow, she receives hilt a scanty remuneration lie closes against her all the avenues to wealth and distinction which he considers most honorable to himelf As a teacher of theology, medicine or law, she is not known. He has denied her the facilities for obtaining a thorough education colleges being closed against her. He allows her In churoh as well us state but a subordinate position, claiming apostolic authority for her exclusion from the ministry and, with some exceptions. from any public participation in the alfaira of the church. lie has created a false public sentiment by giving to the world a different code of morals for men and women, by which moral delinquencies whloh exclude woman from society are not only tolerated but doomed of little account in man.

lie bss usurped the prerogative of himself, claiming it as his right to assign for har a sphere of ao tlon, whdn that belongs to her conscience a id her Mod. He has endeavored, in every wsy that he could, to destroy her confidence In her own powers, to lessen her self-resfect and to make hor willing to lead a dependent and abject life. Nov in view of this entire disfranchisement of one half the pefiple of this country, their social and religions degradation; in view of the unjust laws above mentioned. ynd because women do feel Iheraselves aggrieved opfrested and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights. we insist that they have immediate admission ta all the rights and privileges whieh belong to them at citizens of these llnitad States.

We shall ctnpiey agents, circulate tracts, petition the state and national legislatures, and endeavor to enlist the pnlpit and the press In onr behalf.

There are altered notes on the Farmers' and Mechanics' bank, of Albany, in circulation. The fraud is perpetrated so skillfully, that it would not be likely to be discovered. The fraud is effected by so tearing the bills as to make eleven notes out often. Each bill id therefore imperfect, but in so slight a degree as not to attract attention. Upon examinat on.

several letters through the whole breadth of the bill are found to be missirg. If the ends and the reading on the bill nre perfect, it is conclusive that it has not been altered! But if there is a defect in these particulars, they are to be suspected. The Legislature cf Texas passed an act at Its recent session to provide for ascertaining the debt of the late republic of Texas, and the auditor and comptroller have accordingly given notice to ail persons having i claims or demands for money against the late republic to present the same on or before the second Monday in November, 1849, or they will be postponed to an indefinite period. For the purpose of giving those interested in the debt of the republic of Texas all the necessary information, we give below the act as it passed the Legislature Rk.rini.ic ok or its Debt. Sec.

1. Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State ei Texas, That the auditor and comptroller of publie accounts, as soon as praoticable after the passage of this act. shall cause six months' notice to be given, by publication in some newspapers published weekly in ihe city of Austin, New Orleans, Washington city and New York, requiring all persons having any claim or demand for money against the late republio of Texas, to present the same to the auditor and comptroller of public accounts, on or before the second Monday in November, 1840 and all claims that shall not be pre scnieu on or oeiore vnai nine snnii postponed.

J)e it further enacted. That it shall be duty of tbe comptroller and auditor jointly to report to tha next biennial session of tbo Legislate re for final adjustment.

See. 4.

Be It furtbor enacted that it shall be the duty of the auditor and comptroller of public accounts to classify all claims presented under the provisions of this act. reducing the same to the actual par value which may have been realised by the late republic, and may report such further classificatien as they may deem best calculated to preserve the rights of the State and to do equity to the holders of the claims; and 1 the classification and rate of payment recommended by the auditor and comptroller shall he subject to the revision, amendment and ratification of the next Legislature and that this act take effect from and after its passage. March 20, 1848. published some time since, an official report made I by the comptroller of Texas, classifying the indebted- I nesaof tlie republic, according to the amount received by the treasury on its various bonds. Wo hare no doubt those of our readers interested have preserved that report.

It gives the par value of all evidence of debt i issued by the republic. By the above law holders of Texas securities have a period of twenty months from its passage, for presenting their claims on demand for adjudication and record, in the event of any evidence I of debt belngjso situated that it could not be present- i ed by the stipulated period, wo have no doubt proper arrangements will be made for its acceptance, although I the law does not provide for such delay or neglect.

The trial of the negro Mealed" was continued to-day. The defence to be set up is that Drayton, the principal in the transaction, merely wished to assist ill rtic escape ot the slaves, and that skipper and rrew of the schooner were merely conveying them to free soil," This is a very diflepnt offence from that of negro stealing," being punishable by tine and imprisonment in the district jail, whilst for the I utor crime, several years in the penitentiary is administered. It may be that Pray (mi, on this occasion, was merely ail agent of some abolitionists, whose humanity is greater than their honesty, but it is rather improbable.

lie has, on more tban one occasion, endeavored to make arrangements with negro dealers in Maryland, lor the supply of ones but on tfiese occasions he failed in Ins object. It is very possible that in the oresent instance he had procured a customer, and if he had been successful, it would not have been an unprofitable speculation. One of the witnesses testified that Drayton, when raptured, said he expected all along to be caught and incarcerated in the he was glad of it, as he would there have time to prepare his soul tor This is certainly a novel and rutlier strange way of obtaining salvation, and we recommend the man at once to found a sect. Th-t Hon. Horace was in attendance, 011 the part of the abolitionists, us counsel for Drayton, hut we suppose ihis philanthropic gentleman will not continue his sympathy, if it should turn out that his client intended the blacks to Georgia instead of to Pennsylvania, The evidence yesterday nnd to day, was merely a statement of the facts regarding the capture of the schooner "Pearl" and which were published when the occurrence took place; we have not, therefore, considered it necessary to give it.

We will, however, commence to-morrow, a full renin of the trial, giving the speeches, Arc. The rial has excited a good deal of interest, Epar lcularly as it benrs upon a question which at irescnt fills the public mind. A memorial bus been presented to Congress, by he llev. K. (iurley, praying th? purchase of Ratlin's collection of paintings and curiosities, dnstrative of the manners and customs ol the North Imerican Indians.

The memorial has been reerred to the Committee on Library. The design is ict lorth in the first paragraph of the petition as ollows: The undersigned respectfully represents, that his rlend, Mr. (Jeorge (ratlin, a citizen of the United states, now in Loudon, en the 5th of June, 1840, prelented a memorial to Congress, stating that by the tamest labors of eight entire years of his life, and at an 'xpense of more than 20,000, be had obtained a unique sollection of Indian portraits, customs, costumes, and weapons; that this collection inctudes about paintings, from forty-eight different Indian rihee. with the most tare, curious. and vs.

uablo specimens of drosses, and other nanufactures of the North American bat have ever been made that among theae ire forty full-length of Indiana completely soatumed, and colored from life, the heads of which ire fac-simile casta of distinguished Indiana on the Tout ier; that all aro the productions of the memorialist; tud that in addition, are nearly two tons weight of miaerals and of great flnterest, brought from the ndian regions of America. That the memorialist, iuring his prot. acted and arduous exertions, had been itimulated by a laudable ambition of making this oolection the nucleus of a museum of mankind, to oonnin eventually the records, and resemblances, and nanufactures of all the vanishing races of men on the lobe; and that he hod been supported by the hope being enabled, under the pntronagn of hia own overnment, to complete a pictorial history of those ntereating tribes of aborigines who will, at no 'cry remote period, have yielded to their counry and their existence to more civilised men. and eave it to be preserved as the property of said governnent. for the benefit of future generations, in the meropolis of the Union.

Several memorials have previously been to Congress upon the same subject, and on July Mill, 1H46, the Joint Committee on the Library rerorted in favor of amending the establishment of ne Smithsonian Institute so as to purchase the rallery for $65,000, payable in annual instalments. iVe know of no more valuable purchase which be made than the one in question. In the anguage ot the memorial of American art'iBts in furis, Italian who wishes portray the hisory of Rome, finds remnants of her sons in the Vatican the French artist can study the ancient ibuIb, in the museums of the Louvre; and the rower of London is rich in the armor and weapons jf the Saxon race." Interesting as this collection would be to the country generally, it is absolutely necessary to American artists; und a West and a Powers prove that the American artist is second none, where he has an opportunity oi studying lis art. Since the close of the war, Washington has been risited by a great number of disbanded soldiers, ind whiskey has risen in consequence of the mireascd demand. The latest arrival is that of a of marines, and it is a singular fact, that learly all of them have their jackets lined with mmson silk velvet.

It appears that when the civ of Mexico was taken, a great quantity of splenfid velvets was found in the Halls of theMontezunas. After the officers had done-their duty to their ountry, by helping themselves to as much as hey wanted, the privates were allowed to ornge. and the result has been the strange conrast which is presented, of very coarse blue cloth tickets, gorgeously lined with silk velvet. Some these soldiers tell strange tales of transactions vhich hnve not, we opine, appeared in the ofHcial ejiorts. A book, which would give an account of ill these things, would not be the least interesting if the many histories of the war.

So the House has laid the territorial bill on the able, and the many hours spent by the Senate in its have gone tor nought. The Senate should nove turn round and pass the resolution of the louse, to adjourn on the 7th August. That is a lew which, at all events, would meet with the learty concurrence of every one. The more espeially as it apjiears, no settlement can be made of he exciting question which they have been debatng. However, there is no prospect of an early adjurnnient still hold to the 1st of Sepember, but it is very probable that the adjournment nil not tane place till the middle of October.

ALTHA. Utica, July 37, Arrival and Reception of the New York (No, Hon Ham humeri Re Court and (Irond "New York Herald." This morning, very unexpectedly, a telegraphia dispatch was received here from Syracuse, that the Columbian (No. 9) Hose Company of your eity were on their return from Niagara Fails, and would arrive In our city in the flrst train of cars, and remain with us till the departure of the night train.

Oar Immi and military were quite taken by surprise, bat at they are always on hand to receive strangers, they soon got together, and made preparations to receive their brother firemen of the Columbian Hose Company. John Armln (foreman of engine No. 6) was appointed Marshall of the day, and assisted by J. B. Howell and John Van Ness; some time before the arrival of the earn, oar engine companies, Nos.

3, 4, 5, and 0, together with the new and beautiful military company, the Colombian Artillery (Captain McQuade), marched to tho railroad depot to await the arrival of the ears. At half-past eleven, the western train arrived with the bore company, No. 0, accompanied by that elegant band of Dodsworth's, and they were cordially received by the abovo companies and our eitiacna. I bad almost forgotten to mention the beaatifnl Utiea brass band; they were highly complimented by Mr. Dodworth here, as he gave ibein the credit of beiag the best of any band they bad beard slnee they left New York city.

Our city engine companies looked most beautifully, as did the Artillery; they all joined in tho line of march, No. 3 (John Savage, foreman) taking the lead of the firemen, and they marched, and made a beautiful display through some of our principal streets. Arrangements having boon made with Capt Clapp, of the Avcrell House, to furnish dinner three o'clock, at the stated time the guests were on the spot, and found everything arranged in the best manner. The captain being well known for getting up sumptuous dinners, tbcy could not have fell in wltn hotter quarters than at Captain Averell House. The dinner went otT in good style, when they again adjourned to the street, and inarched through some of our streets which they had not yet seen.

At ten o'clcck they partook or an elegant supper at White's Central Hotel, and then adjourned to the depot. While waiting for the cars, both bands played some elegaDt music; the midnight western train arrived at 12. and left at 1 o'clock, when the Columbians'' bid their I 'tlca friends farewell, and started on their way home Not having time, I cannot give yon all the details of the reception, but I don't think the Columbians'' found (in their long journey), an city to give them a more cordial reception than did the city ofL'tlca The barnburners bad quite a large meeting to-night at Mechanics' Hall: there were between five and six hundred in the hall, and they were long and ably addressed by Krmncis Kernan and Mr. Thropp; many resolutions were pasted, the meeting adjonrned to meet again next week. Our Recorders' Court and Grand Jury are now In session; they both have a good many rases to dispose of; tbey will probably get through some time to-day The ATfie Vork Herald Is received twice a day In this city, by W.
