Our Defeat in the State. Well; it seems to bo generally agreed, now. that appetite for money. In the course ofj an article on the subject of the influence of wealth, in one of our exchange papers, we find this sentiment "Poverty poverty, in the common acceptation of the term is a thing dreaded by mankind, aud is often planed among the catalogue of crimes. Such is the poverty that fellowships with rags and beggary.

But there is another species of poverty, tho most despicable that can be imagined, and more to Notices rVcw.Boolts. NOTM ON TJIE NORTI1WKST, OR, THE VaIXIY OF TnE Mississippi. By W. J. A.

Besides makiug an interesting volume for the general reader, it is, though not strictly a guide, yot more useful to the emigrant than a book of mere details can bo, by imparting to him those general ideas of the country, which will bo always of no less 1 IS s. 8 frjThe above expulsion is only another "exhibition of tho jealousy which appears to have grown up between the Common Council and the Board of Education.

The former assume that by virtuo of their office as Commissioners they havo tho whole supervision and direction of the acts of the Board while the latter claim that they are a legislative body entirely independent of the Common Council. It is timo that the continual difficulties which arisooutof this question were ended, aud that the position of each body was distinctly defined and perhaps there will be no timo better than tho present to determine the relative powers of each.

Specu lations on the causes of this result on the causes of the immense, vote for Mr.

Young, and the defection from Gov. Wright we reserve for another time, and an early one. For the present, wo content onrsclf with the remark, that, when a party is defeated it is always profitable to look what reasons there arc for tTiat defeat in the preceding action of the party itself. This 13 better, far belter, than to find fault with the Xlie future What can tlie Whigs do Whother wo liavo the Assembly or not, in the next convention of the State Legislature, tho Senate is of courso sure to be Democratic. Here, then, wc have a groat breakwater to the dashing waves of Whiggery, now rampant in triumph.

The Senate will uot only act as a chock on Whig legislation but will bur the Gov. in any bad appointments arid nominations. It j3 to be recollected, too, that the New Constitution, (which is probably adopted,) prohibits the borrowing or loaning of money by tho State which is equivalent to taking tho fangs entirely out of the serpent's mouth, bito he ever so fiercely! Here, tv, 1 .1 1 men, rtu get an illustration of the prodigious good of such a provision for it is well known that the Whig leaders, under their doctrino of internal go for tho most ample aid, from tho tato Treasury, to loeal works, speculations, and monopolies. If the New Constitution should not prove to be adoptod, we still have tho Democratic Seuate to fall back upon. So we are guarded at every poiut and bid Whiggery do its worst and wickedest 'JTJie 2Ycw Constitution.

Although iu reference to the voto on the Constitu law, we cannot get at any full authentic returns, even from those places where wo know definitely the vole on the mere ministers of tho law it is thoughtpretty generally that the Amended Consti tion is ratified. Herein Brooklyn (as in New York city,) it had every disadvantage to contend with. Between the Radicals, who were not satisfied because the New Codo did not go far enoughand the Conservatives, who apprehended danger because they thought it went too far wc were almost in danger of getting no votes for it at all. For our own part, however, and in the luce of a firm and powerful prejudice among our friends we fought for the Amended Constitution with might and main and instead of being astonished at the majority in Brooklyn against it, we consider it a great deal gained' in getting so many votes as it did get. Assemblymen elect.

Last winter's Assembly consisted of 7 1 Democrats, 52 Whigs, and 2 Anti Renters, not included in the others. Since the election of 1845, a new apportionment has taken place, by which some counties are entitled to more members, and others to less, than they formerly were. The Assembly when full comprises 128 members. In tho thirty nine counties heard from, and which last year elected 49 Democrats and 39 Whigs the resnlt now gives 37 Democrats and 54 Whigs. Nativism qnahcd.

We suppose nobody will dispute with us, the proposition that the Nativists, in tho just finished election, have uot only been killed dead, as a faction, but that they have beeu carried out and buried decently. They have not succeeded iu electing a siugle one of their candidates. Wc don't want to be hard on them but we must be allowed to remark that they hav'nt got a bit worse treatment than they deserve. Such proscriptive parties 71111st go by tho board sooner or later, however promising may be their temporary success. The N.

Y. Mirror, speaking of tho recent slave case' in that city of tho gratuitous efforts tho police authorities, at tho instance of the Mayor, (that personage certainly not being called on by his office,) says: There arc some contests from which both parties retire with others from which they retire with houor, but this fight for a black boy was not of either kind. One party came out of tho contest with flying colors and covered with honor, whilo tho other must be regarded as disgraced by the cause ho espoused. Mr. Jay is especially entitled to the thanks of the law loving and humane portion of our citizens, for his perseverance and disinterestedness, and Mr.

White for his able argument and eloquent appeal, which have raised him high in the estimation of all who beard him, and will help to confirm hiin in popular esteem among the ablest lawyers at our bar. Mr. McKcon, too, the District Attorney, rendered essential service to the cause of law and good order. Mr. Brady appears to have been a volunteer in tho case, aud as for the other parties, we say nothing of them, lest we say too much or too little.

The case was justly decidod on purely Constitutional grounds, aud no one has a right to find fault with the decision. The law gives a prescribed authority to the slave holder, in this State, and just what the law allows, the officers of the law are bound to grant, but not a jot more. All voluntary or hired works of supererogation on the part of individuals, in a free State, to cnablo the slaveowner to recover his property, we regard in the same light or rather darkness, that wo do the forcible abduction of negroes from tho coast of Africa a deed which our national laws declare to bo piracy, and worthy of punishment by death. And we do not see how the human being, educated iu the light of the present day, can view tho deed ill any different maimer." Wreck found at sea. The captain of the brig Lady of the Lake, from New York, which arrived at Bermuda, when on her passage, boarded the schooner Bath, Maine, from Baltimore for Texas, dismasted and abandoned.

be dreaded than all other earthly ills and maladies combined. We mean tho poverty of soul, with which rich men are often afflicted, and the only poverty to be abhorred and despised. Men who oppress and cheat the poor men who make wealth the standard of worth and respectability men who make gold their god, and whose devotions consist of Dollar Worship, are the self made victims of this poverty of soul, compared to which destitution is a Heaven sent blessing." On no particular matter is the public mind more unhealthy than, tho appetite for money. Tho wild schemes of visionary men the religious excitements of misled enthusiasts the humbugs of ignorant pretenders to knowledge the quackery of tho thousand imposlers of all descriptions who swarm through the land have their followers and believers for a time though the weakness which always attends error soon carries them to oblivion. They glitter for a moment swim for a day on tho tide of public favor and then wnk to a deserred and endless repose.

But the mad passion for getting rich does not die away in this manner. It eugrosses all the thoughts aud the time of men. It is the theme ol all their wishes. It enters into their hearts and reigns paramount there. It pushes aside the holy precepts of religion, aud violates the purity of justice.

The unbridled desire for wealth breaks down Ihe barriers of morality, and leads to a thou sand deviations from those rules, the observance of which is necessary to tho well being of our people. It is that, and nothing else, which has led to the commission of those robberies of tho public treasury that have in years past excited the astonishment and alarm of the American nation. It is the fever ish anxiety after riches, that leads year after year to the establishment of those immense moneyed institutions, which have so impudently practised in the faco of day, frauds aud violations of their engagements, that ought to make the cheek of every truly upright man burn with indignation. Reckless aud unprincipled controlled by persons who make them complete engines of selfishness at war with everything that farors our true interests unrepublican, unfair, untrue, and unworthy these bubbles are kept afloat solely and wholly by the fever for gaining wealth The same uuholy wish for groat riches enters into every transaction of society, and more or less taints its moral soundness. And from this it is that the great body of the working men should seek to guard themselves.

Let them not think that the best thinrr earth, and the most lobe desired, is money. For of all the means necessary to happiness, wealth is at least a secondary one and yet all of us tacitly unite in making it the main object of our desire. For it we work and toil, and sweat away our youth and manhood, giving up tho improvement of our minds aud the cultivation of our physical nature; weakly thinking that a heap of money, when we are Old, can make up to us for these sacrifices. And yet when wo see the universal homage paid to the rich man, it appears uot very wonderful that people are so greedy for wealth. But let us think again, of what avail, or of what true gratification is.

that re spect which is paid merely to money? Is it to win tb'iB at the last to hear men admire and listen to the deferential accents of the low for which hundreds plod on, and on, and on making that which was intended as the.pleasantest part of our journey here, a burden or a useless waste? Is it to gain these ends that men fritter away the sweet spring and summer of their lives, sinking premature wrinkles into their brows, closing their hearts to tho sweet promptings of nature to enjoy and finding themselves, at an advanced stage of their existence, with abundance of worldly means for happiness, but past the legitimate season for it? Foolish and miserable error! All the time of such men is devoted to their one great aim aud all their fear is that they may be poor. Want of wealth is, in their idea, the greatest of miseries. They look abroad into the world, aud their souls seem to grasp at but one object filthy lucre Now let us be more just to our own nature. Let us cast our eyes over this beautiful earth, where so much of fair joy, of pure happiness, of grandeur, of love, of sunshine, exist looking on the human race with the gentle orbs of benevolence and philosophy sending our glance through the cool aud verdant lanes by the sides of the blue rivers over the buBy and crowded city among those who dwell far on the prairies or along the green savannahs or where the monarch of rivers pours his dark tide into the sea and wo shall see poor men every where and we shall see that those men are not wretched because they are poor; and we shall see that if thy were to prove luckier than they have been, and were to become rich, they would not be better men or happier men. And many of the most truly great mon that over lived, hare been poor have passed their days in the vale and never had their names sounded abroad by applauding mouths.

Silent and unknown enjoying tho treasures of soul inherent within them superior to tho common desire for notoriety they have lived and died in obscuro stations Tho world heard not of them statues were not built to them nor domes consecrated to them nor cities houored with being named after them. But they were nevertheless of characters really sublime and grand not the grandeur of common heroes, but the grandeur of some mighty river, existing iu apart of the world us yot undiscovered, holding its broad course through untrodden banks, and its capacious riches not open to tho world. Despicable If the reports are true, in reference to criminals from Blackwell's Island being conveyed to Now York city, to vote on Tuesday, tho fact is a deep disgrace to whoever prompted, promoted, or officiated in it, of whatever party he or they may be. We hope tho matter will bo thoroughly ferreted out. It is not the criminals from the Islund only who should be made to suffer.

A far greater weight of guilt lies on the atrocious action of the official who connivud at the proceeding. Suffolk County.

One thing about this book recommends itself to special notico and that is involved in tho author's remark in tho preface, when he says This work, whatever else it may be, is work it contains no hastily written erudo impressions, but tho deeply tested convictions of an earnestly When we consider the difference between this, and the monotonous affectation of modesty in so mauy prefaces the reader being specially requested to 'excuse bad writing as the writer is in it surely is something, indeed, to see an author willing to take the deliberate responsibility of his production We have marked extracts from Pictorial History or England.

Members expelled. At the meeting of the Board last evening a consider able degree of interest was excited by a debate which took place upon a commuuication from the desk of the Common Conncil, notifying the Board of Education that the C. as Commissioners of Common Schools, had appointed Messrs. S. Johnson, W.

M. Harris and CharleB R. Marvin trustees of the recently formed Colored School district which embraces the whole city of Brooklyn, and, by virtue of that office, members of the Board. Two of the gentlemen named Messrs. Johnson and Marvin appeared accordingly and took their seats.

The print involved in the discussion which ensued upon the commuuication, was that the Common Council had no right to appoint the claimants as members of the Board, and that they had no right to appear upon tho floor. C. P. Smith contended that the whole city by single districts, was already represented in the Board, aud that the C. C.

had no power to ap point a double representation. If the Colored dis trict were truly represented, it should be by colored persons. He was replied to Mr. Marvin, who waived any discssion as to the rights of the C. V.

iu the matter but' stated that he and his colleagues appeared there by virtue of the notification by the clerk of the CO. which expressed in terms that they had been appointed members of the Board." A motion was made to lay the subject on the table, but as it was properly contended that such a course would not dispose of the question, but only have it open future similar difficulty, the motion was withdrawn, and Smith offered a resolution "disre garding the action of the C. and denying the rights or the trustees of the colored district to seats in that Board. This was passed by a strong majority. Hints wore thrown out of an intention on the part of the rejected members to suo out a writ of mandamus, jeaa'tnng the Board to show cause, why they should not be permitted to fulfil the appoint ment of tho commissioners.

Tho meeting last evening was attended as fully as usual, and Judge Hammond was appointed chairman.

Several interesting specimens were exhibited aud presented after which a long commuuication was read from Mr Wm Bigelow, of Hartford, Ct, confirming the re sult of some experiments in the potato culture, which he had recently stated verbally to the society. He had finished harvesting a crop of potatoes, a portion of which had severally been manured with common manure, anthracite coal ashes, wood ashes, and plaster. The experiments had thoroughly convinced him of the efficacy of tho anthracite ashes in preventing the potato disease, while the other manures had produced potatoes very badly rotted. Where he used the coal ashes the yield was at the rate of two huudred bushels to the acre, of very fine, large and healthy fruit After a discussion on the subject of a fossilized human form, recently found in Alabama, tho society adjourned until next Tuesday evening the future evening of meeting.
