Conservative Cinb. Tho leading Conservative men of tho State are about to establish a Olub House in New York, in port for social and in part to subserve political purposes. In England the direction of party contests is almost entirely in the hands of the members of the leading Clubs of the several parties. Hero the Loyal Leagues" haveBhown how useful a Olub may be as adjunct lo the usual party machinery. A house is furnished where all the leaders can meet compare notes, and decide upon a certain course of action.

To the organization of the Loyal Leagues very much of the success of the Republican party is no doubt due. The Loyal Leago Olub House in New York is the rendezvous of the most active Republican politicians of tho State. Its doors are open to the wavering, and by association the unsteady are kept in the traces. When a distinguished stranger visits the city, the Loyal Leaguers have an elegant residence for his reception, and have all the prestige of representative liberality. In New York "Old Tammany" has outlived its usefulness.

Tho Sachems, like the red men from whom they borrowed tho appellation, havo degenerated, and are now mere potty local politicians. Tammany has gone to the bad; its council fires burn dimly, and the seats tho braves once occupied aro given over to men who aro as squaws on tho war path. The oyes of tho Sachems aro dim: they soek only the game that is at tho door of tho wigwam; the young men havo abandoned them, and the old men are so corrupt and selfish tho Great Manito has turned his face from them. As a substituo for Tammany, the Manhattan Olub has been established in New York. Tho leading men of tho Democracy are at the head of it, and so successful has it been that it is impossible to get admitted, so great have been the number of applicants.

What has becomo of the project for establishing a similar institution in Brooklyn? It has been long talked of, and all that is needed is an energetic effort on the part of a few representative men to give the party in this county a central head quarters which it may be proud of, and where wo can, while smoking the calumet of peace, with one another, devise means for circumvent, ing tho wary leaders of the radical tribe. It would be easy to name one hundred leading conservative citizens of Brooklyn who are good for $1000 each to establish an elegant resting place, where the old men might moot for council, and the young for instruction before starting on the annual scalping tour. A new Club House is about being erected in Clinton street, under the auspices of Messrs. Low, Stranahan, Chittenden and others, but of course this will not meet the especial want we refer to. The Sachems and braves of the Democracy are, tor the most part, what Dr Johnson calls "clubable" men.

Their opponents are not. Let the chiefs assemble; let the wealthy men come together, and a wig wam can be erected that will be a credit to the party and to the city. What say Messrs. Sprague, Parks and Lowber to the project? The oars of the young men are open; they wait for the voice of the chiefs. SURROGATE'S COURT Before R.

C. Bhaihabd, Sun BOOATE. The Arlington Bennett Estate Application of the Alleged Widow ol James Arlington Bennett, deceased, for ters of Administration The Surrogate Decides She is Not the, Willow. A sometvhat singular and interestinp; caso has been for tbe last year pending before tbe Surrogato of this County, being an application by a person catling bereelf Margaret Bennett, alias Curtin, tor letters of administration on tbe estate of tho late James Arlington Bennett, deceased.

Wo bovo remarked moro than onoe lately, upon the bitterness and rancor against tbe South, mauifeated by the press of tha dominant Republican party of tho dominant section. Tho pride of conquerors, tho hatred engendered by mortal strifo is Btrong and abiding.

There is magnanimity with Borne, but not tbo majority. There is a great disposition to havo ub remanded baok as conquered territories mado to respect bayonets in negro bande, as one of our town papers not long since recommended for the people of Fayettavillo to taks all havo got ond curse us for not having more, and surely enough, somo of our own politicians aro anxious to cast our honcr and manhood iuto the general heap of things to bo surrendered to appease our ''hrethren," who apparently don't want concllllation either with or for ua. We have tried to think that thoy did, but begin to aeo our mistake. They seek to further humfltato and tread us under toot. God only knows what is to jmo.

WEY REPUDIATION OP THE STATE DEBT AND THE AMENDMENT TO THE NATIONAL CONSTITUTION was orrosED. (From tha Charleston News.) "Wo ore unwilling to repudiate the war debt for tbo reason that it seemed unnecessary to tho restoration of tbe Union; that tho debt was inconsiderable, and that to its extent it constituted tbe capital of many peoplo who bad no cencein in tho war; merchants many of them owirg debts tbey could not pay put tbeir assets in this form to serve them for tbeir creditors; widows and guar diauF, diffident ot all other forms of available security, still truEted to tbe State. With a senSB tbat the requisition to repudiate tbis dept was gratuitous, and unwilling to incur tbe shanio which, uuder any circumstances, wo still must feel in euch repudiation, wo wero solioitous to avoid if. So, also, with the amendment. So far as that involves tbe fall of Blavery, we havo no ropug nanco to it; tbat Iall is now fact accomplished, and there would bo no reluctance to any further measure to mako tbat fact more perfect or irrevocable; but tbere is reluctance to admit Congressional ligislation within tho States.

If admitted to determine tne oonditon or relations of the negro, it would bo admitted to determine them to the uiu ol our people, if that should a agreeable to the majority, or, admitted to those quostions, il would ho in lor any other that might arise; tbo Congress would supersede tbo State Legislature tho theory of our Government would be broken; and while, thero fore, we might question as to tho conseqoonces to our own domestic interests, we could not question the consequences to the Republic, and if unbecoming to be influenced by considerations of the one, it was justly proper to be respectful of the other. For theso roasons, these measures were objectionable; but we arB dow instructed that thoy ate necessary; and there i9, perhaps, a common feeling that further etfjrt 1b useliEs, and tbat it is better to submit passively to wbut fortune yot awaits us, than become tbo instruments cf our further degradation; but this information comes Irom the President in terms to Imply bis profound conviction of its truth. It is not ti bn supposed that he would require unnecessary abasement to po ver; not to be supposed that ho would eeek to increase tho power of LoLgreFS, by admittiug it within tho State, which is now bis antagonist, and threatoDs him with all the agencies it now commands. He calls upon us to trust him. Our course is unquestionably tbo same.

If we cannot trust tho President there is cortamly no other power within the Governmert we can trust Apart from him, thero surely seems no other refuge. THE TEST OATH. Judge Bingham, of LaGrange, Georgia, who is a candidate for Congress, thus expresses himself in reference to the test oath; Tbo pccplo of these counties know tho sentiments I entertain in regard to tbe restoration of tbo civil authority of the State to tbeexcicise ol tbeir functions. Ihave no concealments to mako on this Important subject. Speaking i bout it, beforo 1 bad auy expectation ot becoming a randidatc for your suffrages in this election, I used the following languago a charge to tho grind jury in Atlanta, which I copy from the Intelligencer of tbe tith "Tho Constitution of tho United Statos sccuros to every citizen the right to personal liberty, persoual security and private property; and, being the organic law, it is binding aliko upon the Presidont, tbo Congress and all." My viewB have not changed since they wore thus expressed.

Tbe war is ever. Tbe occupation of the soldier ia gone. Let the American Constitution resume its away alike oer all, in parts of tho country. The civil walkB of life should not be blocked up with tbo fading relics of strife; nor should tbo irregular tribunals of tbe camp be permitted to domicil themselves in poacoful valleyB. I opposed the secession of Georgia from tho Unbn; hut nevertheless, regret to Beo thai wo have a candidate lor Congress in tbis DiBtriot who commends himself by saying be thinks be can tko tho Test Oath to which he specially refers.

Speaking for mydelf, I am not ready to write Traitor over tbe graves ot the hon oTeTTdead, I would not, if I could, thus IubuU tho sur. vivors of tho recent severe conflict of arms, THE EFITCT IF TH SOUTHERN ItEPEESENTATIVES ABE DENIED ADMISSION TO CONGRESS. From tbo Mobilo Register Hon. John Forsyth, editor. Advice has been volunteered to tbe South by peraons meaning to be friendly, from the North, to send as re preEontatives to Congress such msn as could subscribe to the oath of office adopted by a Radical majority when tho wax feeling was at fever heat.

While tbis council was meant bo friendly, and had for its object tbo speedy admission of the representatives of the South to seats in CongreBs, we cannot think it wise. Tho whole question is in a nutshell. Either the South is to be represented in tho legislative counsels of tho Union, or it is not. Ifitisnof, then the forms of election migbtas well be dispensed with. President Johnson will declare the lato "rebf Ilious Slates" restored io tho Union bo soon as tbey shall have mado thoso organic changes whiob he has pronouncod as necessary to that ond.

These States can then quietly go on with their lecal governments, und their scats bo iog vacant in Congress tbat body will have to gpt along tho best way they can with the solution of the old English snd American principle of "taxation without representation." In other wc rds, theso States will havo nothing to do but quietly wait until reason and go id feeling resume their swoy in the National Legislature. But II, on tbe other bund, these States aro to be represented, let them be represented. Can any sano man say or believe tbat a Southerner who could conscientiously take tbe iron lud" oath of ofilce was a representative of tho South To bo sure, wo might smd men thore whose heariB havo not beaten with a single throb of sympathy with their constituents for the past noaily flvo years, and cull them reprosentativee, but would they he reprttentatives? It would be a iarce, not ouly discred ilaMe us, but l'ruiiless ot good to tbo South or tbo North. It would be a sham or representatives, alike undignified and unprincipled, and one A'o hope never to Bee put in practice. The tmo course is to send men to Wtbbii gtou who do actually represout tbe interests and the sentiments cf the Southern people, aud then lQave it to lime and tbe good sense and good tcaling ot tbe North io detenu no whether or not It was in earnest whon it took up arms ond waged diro war tJ preserve the Union; or whether, now Ihat it has been saved, and is offered to its acceptance, it purposes to stultily its acts and belie its woriis by rejecting it.

Tho South can off jrd to bide its time and wait for the award of tbe sound judgment ol tbe people ol tho Nonh and West, When wo ol tbe South have accepted tho judgment or arms have complied with the requisitions ot tho President, and sent cur truo Representatives to Washington, we havo done all that honorable men aud true at the North can or will require Let us not demean ourselvos for tbo purpoie ff conciliation radical disunioniats, aud thereby creep iu by the back dour of Congress. The Approiir.liinu Cholera. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: You spoke wisely and correctly iu your issue of a lew ouysano of tho apathy manifested on tho pirtof tho city authorities cond miug tho approach of Asiatic cholera; tor more than likely ids already in our midst eking Its horrid und filthy nests of incubaiiou and propagation; aud perchance il is not ouly with as, but hart oeeu wutied for to tbe iuterior lung ero this, taking root wherever it may havo found a fitting Invitation.

It seeks such plucos wherevor it travels for its storehouses.

Cholera is a uoi lon of tho uioflt violent type, and few ore the constitutions that oie able to battle with it aocoealnlly. Ita ravages aie bo rapid that ol'tm in a period of twenty lour hours it not only tbo natural elemnts of tho blood, but leaves tbo bony a skeleton aud perhaps corpie.

This is tbe great preventative remedy.

Would that our city authorities could be impressed with this trufhlo due time, and at once to work the blBftsed wtrk ol cleansing and diFlnfeodng our city. What a number of UvtB and amount of misery it wouli save? Think not becanso tbo winter approaches that it will prevent its ravages I It will only mako the dous mora crowded, and the hovels more flltby. Let us not foraet theead results of tho memorable cholera winter in St. Petersburg. Whi Si rinc returns and the filth Is released from Ibe winter's Iroft.

it is all tho more ready for decomposition and propagation. Then, why not at onco at cleaning and disintecting When fairly organized, how easy tho work.

It would bo far better, for the city to supply them gralis to the poor and to the streets, than to idle away preoioua time, leislurely discussing this subject, inviting, as it seems to do, with open and out etntohed arms tho advent of this horrible, roleutloss ond terrible malady.

A. Church and Manufactory building ia the 18th Ward A targe Brewery to lie Erected on Bnshwick Avenue The Vaults now being Constructed. There has been considerable enterprise manifested for somo time past among manufacturors and other parties in the Eastern District, in the wayol building. This reflects very creditably upon thorn, for thore bavo been for tbe past few years, and aro now being made, improvements In that lino which will tond to revive tbe prosperity of tbo "Burgh." These improvements ore not confiDed to one section of Williamshurgb, Wo have heretofore described some conspicuous enterprises in tbe lower section, which is the buslost. Tho upper part, say tbo 16th and 18th wards, is also being dotted with manufactories of all kinds, and a largo number of privato dwellings are going up.

On Bashwick aTcnue, at tbe head of Grand street, is a palatial residence, now almost completed, which has been built at considerable expense by tbo Hon. Martin Kalbileisch, Tbis building will bo one of the finest ptivate mansions in the Eastern District. It is constructed of brick, is of capacious dimensions, and finished off in an expensive and elegant, but rubsbmtial, manner. From its windows miles of the surrounding country can bo taken in at a glance, for it will be borno in mind that this is a retired section of the city. Cburch improvements in the Eastern District aro rapidly being effected, and within a short timo past thero have appeared in tbo columns of this paper sovaral announcements of the laying of corner stones and tho completion ol religious edifices bore, Tho already larg number of buildings of this class is to bo incroasod by tho addition of ANOTHER CATHOLIC CHUBCII which is being erected by the cburch of tho Holy Trinity, Eov.

Father May, pastor, in Montrose avonuo, between Graham avenue and Eweu street, tho congregation of which is composed of Germans. In connection with this enterprise thero is quito an interesting history, which Bbowstho gieat increase of German Catholics in the "Borah." In tho year 1 341, tho church of tho Holy Trinity, a brick buildii of modest dimensions, was erected in Monti ose avenue near Graham avenue. Yoar by jear tbe congregation increased at such a rapid rate, that in I860 another building was erected in tho same Btceet and block. Tbe new church was also of bri.rk, but ot larger dln ensions, and altogether was a roomy and desirable edifice. The former church was still iu use, Eeivices being conducted successively by Father May and two assistants.

As years elapsed, the congregation of tho new church increased, and in 1S63 another church was proposed. It was commenced in tbe month of December, and tbe site is on tbo corner of North 5th and 7th streets On its completion pastor was assigned to it in tbo peison of Father Haaptman, and it becamo separated from tbo Montrose church. This drew a largo number from tho latter church, but within tho past two years, tbeir numbershavo greatly Increased, and it has been found necessary to erect another building. The schools in connection with the two original cburcheB have also been greatly swelled in numbors, so that children between the ages of six and twelve are only admitted to them.

Peter Leyendzker, a thorough instructor, and the girls, in ar out equal numbers, under tho Bisters of St Domihi'ck, connected with the chnrob. Tho now building, which is now pretty well up, is on tho lots beyond Bush wick avenuo, at tho head of Powers Btreot. It is of rather Bmall dimensions, but it is proposed to erect a larger ono io the course of a few yoara, near by, and the lots are already purchased. Tho now church is 10x100 feet, of trick, built in plain stylo, and throe stories in height. In tbo rear, without disjoining, is to be a dwelling for tbe pastor 20 40 feet.

Tbe flrBt floor of the main bnllding is to be devoted for school purposes, tbe second and third as tbe church. Where tho larger church is built, it is proposed to convert this new building entirely into a school. The structure will bo completed at about Easter, and will cost a nice little sum. Mr. Al organ is tbo architect.

But a short distance from this, at the end of Wyckoff street, beyond BuBhwlck avenuo thero is A NEW MANUFACTORY in cour8o of erection, by Messrs. Woterbury and Marshall. This firm aro extensive manufacturers of cordago and dealers in bemp, and have an extensive ropowalk in the vicinity cf tbe new building. Tbis bogging manufactory is now being constructed very rapidly, and the wahs aro erected to almost tbe required height. Its diraan sions oro 7G by 42.

It is of brick, iB to be tbreo stories iu height, and strongly built. Anjoiuing it is to be tbo engino room, 55 by 19. Tbroughrut tbo factory tho arrangements, aro to bo of tho first cluss, and altogether, though not of the largest of ita kind, it will no ono of the best. Tho exact cost or tbo entorpriso cannot he learned, but is presumed tbat it will bo a very lorgo amount. What kmd of a factory tbis now building is to be, is yet unknown, and tho proprietors refuse to give tbo information on tbo ground that they themselves aio in entiro ignorance for what it is purposed.

It sill very probably be in somo way connected with tbo rope walk. MeBsrs. Waterbury 4 Marshall's offlco is at No. 253 Front street, N. where a heavy business is carried on.

It will probably prove an interesting piece of news to drinkers of lager beer, on boing informed tbat another LAGER BBEWERI is to bo erectod by Messis.

On the ootner ot Bushwlck avenue and Messerolo street, tbo fiito of tho proposed brewery, workmen are now engaged iu constructing two vaults, 20 by 50 each. They aro to bo 81 feet in depth, priat precautions are being taken, to prevent any accident to tho men at woik, aa 1b geuerally tbo case in work of tbis Mud. They are to bo accessible, whon complete, by hoistways only. It is further understood that the provndon which the brewery is to stood, a deck square, is to be fenced iu, and tho unoccupied portion improved. In tbis vicinity other brewers are construcliog vaults and improving tbeir property, but these and various other improvements ia other parts of tbe Eistorn District, will bo treated of in a future article.

Fair at the Graham institute Few institutions aro thero moro deserving of charily than tho Home for Itespectable and Aged Indigent Females, situated on tbe corner of Washington andDoEalb avenues. Tho people of Brooklyn invariably show their appreciation of this fact by attending in large numbers tbo annual fair held for the benefit of tbis asylum. Yesterday being tbo opening of this yearly fostival, there was a numerous and brilliant assnmblage itathered ou tbo occasion. In tho afternoon tho Graham Institute waa comfortably tilled with ladies, but iu the evening it was ciowded with indtviduuls of both sexes. The Bpacious cbupcl, which was appropriated for the display oi tho oitlexeut articles ready ur sale, wis very prettily ffecurated with lings, banners cod crergreons.

Ouo long table wu covered with too handiwork of tbo inmates ot tho building, iu tho shape of mittens, scarfs, pincushions, st ckings, crotchet work, aud embroidery of every description. In additiou to this, tboro wero all sortB of fancy goods, trinkets and toys, awaiting the generosity ot pbilautbrcplo purchasers. Iu tho lower story tho dining and reception rooms wore filled with every species of delectable. furnished by tbe ladies in tereed Iu tho success of tha ooterprise, which wero largely patronised by hunury customers. Tbe doiruitoiies of tbo building, which presented an appearanto of scrupulous neatness und homo liko comfort, wero thrown open to tho public, and many wero the visitors to th.

ADDRESS BY HESRT WcCLOSKF, ESQ. "The Life aud Character of Cornelius Heeney," One of our Local Celebrities. Lirnt ovening the Academy of Music was crowded from parquette to amphitheatre, on tbo occasion of the annual exhibition given by the inmates of (to Roman Catholic Male Orphan Asylum. A few days since the corner stona of tho now Asylum was laid, and tbo proceeds of tbo entertainment last ovening being for tho benefit of tho Institution, it was very gratifying to find such a large auaienoe, representing a considerable augmentation lo tho treosury ol the Society. A large number of clorgjmen, Including tho Right Rev.

Bishop LoughliD, wero present, and appeared to be much pleased with tho efforts of tho little fellows, of whom there were some two hundred, of various ages, from two years old te fourteen or flfteon, all neatly and comfortably clad, and reflection in their healthy and happy loolB, tbo excellent care bcstiwed upon them by the managers of tbo Asylum. Tbo outsido musio on the occasion was furnished by tho Assumption Band. Tho exerclaeB, wblch were under the direction of MeeBrs. Roonoy and Cooke, the teachers employed for tbo pupils, commenced about o'clock with a duet and chorue, tho duet being sung by James Hickey and John French, and tbo chorus spiritedly sung Vy tbe rest of tho pupils. Moeter John French then advanced to the footlights, ODd, with a clear voice and good enunciation, addressed the audience as follows: Thoughtful and Generous Benefactors I Onco more I have tbe honor to appear before you, as tbe representative of our youthful community, in order to express as fully as my feeble powers will permit, the filial gratitude and enduring affection which wo feel toward you wno havo bo fondly cheriBbed and so carelullv protected us.

Another year baB passed away Binco wo had the honor of appearing before you in this ploje, during which period, as fully as in tho past, your paternal love nas shielded us from evil ond guarded us from want. For mo to ofler any apology for tbe obvious imperiojtbns in tbo exercises of tbo evoDing is superfluous; for our youth and the peculiar circumstances under which our livos havo been passed, are well known, aud thoroughly understood by those to whom I speak. Iu alluding to tbo protection extended to our luyenilo commuoity, during iormer years, we desire to show tbat wo do not forget those gentlemen who wero your predecessors in tbe good work of succouring tbe orphaned and friendless. In times )ODg paBt, when our fair city wis but in its infancy, theso gentlemen per 'eived the necessity of establishing a home" tor the destitute children or our faith and cur present asylum owe their origin to the untiring energy and charitable zeal displayed by thoso eaily protectors of our homeless youth. A reverence for those protectors has been instilled into our youthful mind, and we earnestly, hope that it may over remain freBh in our hearts; tbat it may grow with onr growth, and strengthen with our strength, The facilities for mental culture and physical development which we at preie possess, are utterly inadequate to produce tbo degree of improvement which wo leel assured it is your earnest desire to witneBa, Of tbia fact you are as fully cognizant as outselves and our immediate directors, spiritual and temporal, and wo know well tbat the paternal satisfaction felt by you on witnessing tbo ceremony of laying tbo cornor stono of our new Asylum was equalled only by the joy which filled our youtblul breasts on that pleasing occasion.

It is our earnest hope tbat the new Asylum bo finished as quickly ob possiblo. Wo leave its completion in your hands, feeling confident tbat tour love for tbo or pboK, which has never abated, will causo to mako every exertion to insuro its speedy completion. By so doing you will provide a happy, comfortable homo for your loving ctildrcn. "Wo look forward with eager expectation to tbe timo when we shall entor into it. regarding it aa a place where wo Bhall have extended opportunities for tbo amplo development of all our powers, and where wo shall be carefully prepared to take our position in society, ond discharge the duties thoreof with credit to you andbonor to ourselves.

We will nov proceed with the exercises which havo been selected for tho occasion, hoiing tbat you will find tbom desorving of Bomo approbation. Iu conclusion, ladies and gentlemen, we doBiro to express our earnest nope tbat wo, your children, may bp ever worthy ot the fostering attention which has been heretofore bestowed upon it. "Remember Thee," one of Moore's beautiful ballads, wos next given by Ibe boys, after which Bonry McCIos key, was introduced by Mr Carroll and delivered an address on the Life and Character of Cornelius Heeney, tbo original founder of tbe Institution, ot which the following is a brief synoposis Mr. Heeney was a natlvo of Iceland, but cams to America nt an early age. Ho arrived in 1734, and was a citizen from tbo timo of tho adootion of tho Federal Constitution.

Tho ship in which he sailed was struck by lightning and wrecked iu Delaware Bay, and the passengers and crow bad a narrow escape. Mr. Hoeuey pro. ceeded to Philadelphia, but soou alter came to New Vork and settled tbere. lie obtained employment from a Mr.

Backbone, who was then ouo of tbe leading merchants of tbo cily. A young German was attached to tho Bame establishment at tho timo ob porter, and was in tbo habit of purchasing small qualities of damaged furs, which his employer shipped for him to Europe, and reinvested tbe proceeds tor his benefit. Su 'h was the career of the gieat millionaire Jobn Jacob ABtor. Mr. BuckbouBO soon atterretired from business, and Hooney and Astor ontered into partneisbip.

In a year or two alterwards they separated, and Mr. Heeney conducted tbe butiues bimaelt. He carried on a trado in fucs with Canada, and by that means laid the foundation cf his fortune. In order to secure a debt bo accepted a conveyance of what was then a farm in Siuth Brooklyn, with a fino mansiis and orchard to which he removed in 1S35 and remained tbere during tbe rest ol his life. Too propeity iocreaaed rapidly in value owing to tbo establishment ot an improved Bystum ot lem'age, and what had been a farm soon became con verted into city lota.

This entiro property, now known as tbe Heeney estate, the proprietor lelt at his death, partly lor tho support rf tbo Catholic Orphan Asylum aud partly for the relief of tho destitute poor of tbo city. Iu lblG be founded tbo first Orphan Asylum established in the city ot Now York, by purchasing grounds for a site and aidiug in tbe erection of tbe building. Ho also donated Bix lots cf ground on tto comer of Court and CcngreEB streets, Brooklyn, as a sito for St. Paul's Church, and eighteen lots in tho same neighborhood for tbo erection of tho Orphan Asylum, He deviated bis entire luecmo to bcuevol ut objects, and distributed daily tucl aud bread and meal to tne poor of tbo city. There was a lino orchird on the Brooklyn property when he purchased it, and ho was in tbe bobit ever afterwards, until his death, of marshalling the little orphan children of the New York Asylum, and matching at their head down Broadway and across the fei ry to tbe orchard, where bo bad men employed to shake ibo trees and pick tbe ripe fruit of all kinds for the children, who ato and played upon tno grass.

During the CbiiBtmas holidays ho assembled all tho poor children in the neighborhood, indulged tbom in play oud regaled them with a banquet, and finally dismissed thcni, giving to each a cake and it small sum of money. He luroly mingled in politics beyond too exercise of his rights usa citizen, Ho waf, however, once to tho Legislature, and was a member of tho Assembly in At that time Mr. Van Buren, afterwards President, was presiding officer ot the Senate, and tho loader of tho Democratic party ot tho State, The old Federal psrty had broken down after tho war of 1312, and Mr. Van Buren conceived the idea of selecting Bufus King a member ot that party as a candidate tor the Uuited States Senate, In order by withdrawing him trom the Federalists to still prolong Democratic ascendancy. Tbere were thrao Democratic momberj of tho Assembly, h.wever, who refused to voto for him.

Those were Mtssis. Hunter of Albany, Clarkson Crohus ot New York, and Air. Heeney. Tho two former finally wero prevailed upon to withdraw their opposition, provided tbe latter would do tho same, but his objections were insurmcnntablo. Ou beiuu pressed lor tho reason of such obstinacy, bo replied th it when the abottivo Irish rebellion cf was suppressed tho British rov ernmcnt agreed to spaTo tho lives of certain of the leaders, including Simpson, Emmet, McNevin and othetB, on condition tbat they would expatriate themselves and departliom the British dominions; and by their political sympathies and affinities tbey agreed to come toimori Mr.

King being at that time American planlpoteutliry at the Com of Great Britain, protested against America being made, aa be expressed it, the receptaolo of tbo political criminals ef Europe, and Mr. Heeney, bolieving each sentimehts to bo uomauly and uu Americau, under tbo circumstances, refused to support tbeir author as a candidate for the United States Senate Mr. Heeney lived lo tbo ago of ninety four years. Ho dtd on tha 3d of May, 18IP, and bis remains were Interred In tho burying ground attached to St. Paul's Church in Court sireet.

On tho conclusion of Mr. MoCloskey'a oddress, which was listened to with much Interest, the pupils sang tho Echo Chorus, followed by exorcises in Calesthcnics, and tho first part of the entertainment oonoluded with tho song As Slow our Ship1" Tho exercises of the second part of tho programme commeoced with tbe performaooo of 6evoral airs by tbo orphans' band, uuder tbo direction of Prolessor Ejkort after which "Will Waddle" was very well rociwd by Mr. John BrowD. A Une chorus, My erentla Harp was next sung by tha orphans, followed with tho Au vil Chorus." Master Thomas Ward then sang tho Soi of the Union" and the exerciseB couoludod with the singing of tho Star Spangled Bannor" by the orphans. All tho exercises above gtven were given by tho orphans In a manner which reflects tbe highest credit on tbeii teachers.

Trials of Policemen. Among the cases brought before the Board ofPolioe CommissioDors yesterday morning was tbat officer Ryder of'llrooklyn, who was charged with having lailcd to patrol bis beat in Court Btreet, near Warren. Whtn called upon for his defence, ho said it was anewheatandhobad'notyet thorough'y postod himself aa to its limits. A charge of neglect of duty was brought against officer Cox who failed to tiy.the security, cf tbo fastenings of tbe store ao'ors on tho samo beat. Officer Cox S9ys ho' did try them, but Roundsman Temple says ho did not; tbat bo watched him for.Blx hours and is quite positive that he did not try thorn.

When General Sherman was lost in New York some weeks after the surrender of the last of the rtbel armies he let iall in a general conversation, some observations which seemed to 6how that he was in favor of a free use of the pardoning power by the President. "What would you do, General," asked one of the gentlemen present, "with Lee, Johnston, and "other rebel leaders '(" "Do with them exclaimed Sherman "1 wonld make friends of "them. I believe they accept their defeat," he continued, "as settling all the questions involved in the war.

I believe they mean to "bo faithtul to the government; I would mako "friends of them, therefore. Disguise it as wo "may," added Sherman, "the representative "men of the South the men of influence "there are the men who have been conspicuous in the war. Lee could do more tomorrow to win tho Southern people over to "obedience to the new order of affairs than "fifty men liko Alexander Stephens. The "same is true of Johnston and others. In the "men that have stood afraid to assist i "me (Sherman) when I was South, and afraid "to join their fortunes with the rebeb, tho "Southern people have no confidence.

I would ''make friends of the men who have influence, "and everything else wo hope for will follow "in good time." The last Congress of the United States acted on a different theory from that which receives Sherman's high endorsement. By a law en. acted while the passion which war excites was at its height, no man can represent the Southern States in Congress who is not 'prepared to make oath that he has never any way aided the rebellion. Thore are not twenty five men in any State in the South, whose suppoitis worth having, who cantata the oath prescribed. In Tennessee have an illustration of the radical policy.

Tho governing power of that State is in the hands of a mere handful of the population under the lead of the notorious Brownlow. These men could not hold power a day without assistance from outside. All the legislation of the State is shaped with view of prolonging existing troubles. In no State is the negro more harshly treated. Every possible barrier is thrown in the way of the exciciso of the franchise by the white population, who havo taken part in tho rebellion.

The State is in the hands of a small oligarchy who have a direct interest in keepirig alive the power which the war created, and the distinctions for which it has given an excuse. President Johnson seems to bo fully sensible cf the impossibility of reconstructing the Southern States on the basis of its so called loyal population. Mr. Lincoln attempied it in Louisiana, in direct opposition to the wishes of many of his strongest political friends in Congress, and the experiment proved a complete failure so complete that though the civil power has been nominally established for over thiee years in that Stato, there is hardly any State in the South whose condition is less satisfactory. In a recent conversation the President Is reported to have said with considerable emphasis: "The South must "come back and bo a part of us.

It must "come with all Us manhood. I don't want it "fo come eviscerated of its manhood." "It "would be foolish to disguise the fact," adds "the gentleman who reports this conversation "that the President both by word and deed "disclaims tho position of a partisan executive, and that he is not iasensible to the "flattering approval of his administration by "the Democratic party. I do not mean by this that he is in sympathy and fellowship "with them; and he will, I feel warranted in "saying, adhere to the political fortunes of "tho Southern Stitos without regard to politi "cal consequences." 1 If wo attempt to reconstruct the Statos on (he basis of the so called Union population of the South, tho South must be eviscerated' of its manhood. Tho Southern people, with almost entire unanimity, engaged in the lato rebellion. This is proved, beyond all question, by the tenacity with which the conflict was waged, and by the length of time it wts prolonged.

Neutrality is the most that can ho claimed for the men who now turn up a3 "Unionists" in the Southern States. Had the rebels succeeded in establishing their independence, there are hardly ten men in the States still unrecognized as within the Union, who could have been decently punished for anything they did to aid the General Government in its efforts to establish its supremacy. Underlying the policy of the radical party is distrust of tho South. The Now England leaders of tho party in power have never, in fact, regarded tho people of tho Southern States as their fellow countrymen. They assume now that tho people south of tho Potomac aro altogether different irom us.

Ave of the North held slaves, and abolished slavery in our own limo and way. In the opinion of New England, the Southern people never could be trusted to follow our example. In tho North there was no cruolty practiced upon the liberated slaves, but tho radicals assume that all tho Southern people want is the opportunity of torturing and massacring tho unfortunate negroes. We must begin to regard tho Southern people in fact as in name, as fellow countrymen. On all points we cannot hope to agree, but wo must agree to disagree as did those wtose labors mado a Union possible Above all, tho attempt to eviscerate" the South of its manhood must bo abandoned.

Congress cannot deny the representatives of the South admission to Congress, unless it desires to revive a quarrel which was fought out here over eighty years ago, and in which it was established that no free people ought to bo taxed unless they are represented in the body by which tho tax is imposed. The Official Vote foe Judge of Supreme Court. Tho official vote of five counties out of tho eight in tho Second Judicial District has been published, and thoy givo Jasper W. Gilbert 84 majority, as follows Gilbert, 1300 3320 2M3 055 1059 li 83 Bsach. HS'J 2412 2983 MID 1582 10S5 Suffolk Queens Weet'hf filer.

Rockland Putnam Xolal ...14,825 14,841 The counties of Orange, Dutchess and Kings aro to bo heard from officially. Kings is sure for 17,000 majority for Gilbert, which tho other counties to hear from will increase. The New York Election. The Mc Keon Democracy of NewYork havo nominated Mayor Gunther for re election. Tho Citizens' party have nominated John Heoker, the farina man) for Mayor.

The Eepublicans ore looking for an eligible General. Dix and Sickles have been offered the nomination, but both have deolined. Fernando Wood is reported to have made up his mind to try his luck again for his old position, and Tammany Hall will vere likely have a candidate. It is likely to be a scrub race, in which we hope the best man may win. Later returns indicate that the negro 'fiiif frrgo question in Wluconiin is defeated by at least eight lncusicd majority.

Baeeb in Teouble. Tho henchman of tho "divine" Stanton, Baker, tho detective, is iu trouble. Ho has been arrested on four charges of false imprisonment, seizing persons without warrant or justification, and sequestrating whatever valuables they might happen to havo about them. The Grand Jury of Washington have taken cognizance of Baker's doings, and unless there is an arbitrary interference with the civil authorities, this fellow will get his deserts, To cover up hi? high handed proceedings Bakor pretends to have discovered frauds in the pardon brokerage business. There appears to be about as much foundation for this story as there was for the Wiiz poisoning yarn, in which Baker was squarely convicted of falsehood by Wirz's counsel.

It may have been necessary during the war to retain such men as Baker in the public service, but the credit of the government demands that he shall bospoodily divested of his official character. A New Counterfeit. Counterfeiting is a business to which much intellect and mechanical skill has been perverted, and it has attained to marvellous perfection. Currency of all kiDds has been subjected to imitation, and counterfeiting has not stopped here. Wooden nulmegs, mahogany hams, and cast iron cucumber seeds have made Connecticut eminent the world over.

Birmingham in England has a wide reputation for counterfeiting in the jewelry and articles of vertu line. Tho war developed a new variety of counterfeit, But all these counterfeit presentments were mechanical, and it is somewhat startling to loam that plants andfiuit trees are liable to counterfeit. A dealer in such ware3 advertises in New York a rare variety of blackberry bush, coupled with a caution to boware of counterfoils." A counterfeit vegetation is somewhat of a novelty, and is a subject for the Horticultural Society to investigate. It would be interesting to know what kind of fruit a counterfeit blackberry bush would produce. And if blackberry bushes can bo counterfeited, wo may expect counterfeit strawberry plants, bogus grupe vine slips.and shoddy peach trees, and a total demoralization of thefrnit business.

It is time to boware of counterfeits. The Trades The Plasterers on Ornamental Work. A meeting of the Plasterers, bosses and journeymen, was held last night at Court street to consider a subject of geniral interest to the trade. It seems tbat of lato years a special business has sprung up in a few cities, Brooklyn being one of them, for doing tbe ornamental work" of tbe plastercra vocation. This work consists of tbe putting up of cornloes, centre pieces, tho lightest, most ogreeablo, and possibly tbe most profitable portion of tbe plasterers work.

It bus gradually been growing a custom to separate tbis ornamenting from the plastering work, and giro it ont by contract to parties wba mado a speciality of mic work. To tbis the regular plasterers object, and tbe bosses and journeymen have recently taken the subject jeot into consideration, with a view of preserving their business intact and retaining tbe lighter and more agreeable as well as tbo tougher and boavier work. At a previous meeting a committoe had been ap. pointed to devise some plan of action and this com miltce reported lat evening. Tbe subject was fully discusBed, tbe bOEsea present being in full aeoord with the journeymen, and tbe meeting eventually adoplod tho following rules.

Tbat we as journeymen Plasterers will work for no boss who does not contract for the ornamental with tbo other portions of the Plasterers worir. That the boss PlaBterers or their apprentices abalj have tbe oxeluaivo right (o put up such ornaments in ill cases, and tbat such ornaments as may be used BhiU be cast, or futniehoi by tho boas plastoror who does tho work.
