Coiancll.The Conlidilation ot the Chief
of Police.
'1 be ."Teptomber session of the Common Council
pen* this day, when, among other questions, will
Ike brought forward the confirmation of the Mayor's
nomination of the Chief of Police ; and it is to be
hoped that there will be enough of independent and
sensible inwn found in the Board of Aldermen to
carry the confirmation, aui thus save their body
the disgrace of the rabid partisan vote that wad at*
tempted to be passed at the close of the last session
.when, to accomplish the object, resort was hal,
according to report, to theuiost unjustifiable means;
so tha,- even a coroner" s inquest on th body of a
worthy alderiuan wight have been the consequence
and become the titling sequence to the act passed
by the last Legislature, upon which an Alderman,
in his place, made a pithy and apprupri ate comment,when he said he bad offered at Albany, in
view of the lobbying he witnessed, to become the
intra, tor to abolish the charter and the Common
Council itself, for the sum of five hundred dollars.
«o utterly corrupt did be find the men entrusted
with the legislation of the Empire State, and the
nflh»r« of this great metropolis.
What is the reascn assigned for the attempt to get
rid of Mr. Matsell 1 Not that he is unfit for his office
.col that there is a better or even as good a m an to
fill hit place. No, but simply because he is suppose i
to be a demo.rat; though curious enough, the demo
eratic party regard him with suspicion, and some
of them go the length of saying he is a whig, just
because he acts impartially in the discharge of his
office, and does not favor democrats more than
whig*. Ever since he became Chief of Police ho
baa kept aloof from all politics, and confried himselfto '.he strict line of his public duty. A ad the
reward '.hat some truculent partisans would now
render him for his fidelity is, to borrow their own
apcetoive term, '-decapitation." To what a pitch
of blind fury this factious zeal must drive thors
who are influenced by it, when a man occupying
tbo respectable position of Alderman Morgans, the
President of the Board, and the atting .Mayor in
the absence of Mr. King.-land, Could descend from
the chair in " hi h he presided, and, leading on the
opp-iiion to Mr. Matsell, declare that he had not
a tingle fault to find with him.that he had no
charge to make or endorse against him.but that it
waa tjuite sufficient that the victim «u a democrat .
tha' be hid. therefore, no bowels of cutpassisn fur
kin, and that the guillotine must do its bloody work,
aitd sever his bead from his bod/. How did hejunify
this rutblcaa intention of hi« part/, whith wai not
carried oat owiug to the integrity and public spirit
f »< me of iti memberi, who, like Henry Clay,
would prefer to be right rather than obtain an office
far tbemeeiree or their party friend!, by a course
that conscience, honor, self-respect, and a regard
for the public welfare forbade.bow did be jiutify
tbo propoeed deci<pitationI Why, by the very beautifullogic, that tbe democrats, at one time, when
in power, cut «.II whig beads, right and left, without
regard to age o. tending, merit or demerit. L'nieee
tbe Prta.d«nt of tbe Board of Aldermen aperovei of
this mo* lug down of members of bis own psrty
when in office, and bold' that two wrongs make a
right, jurt ai two negatives make an affirm Hire, hie
argument ie good fur nothing, and ia about the
woakest exhibition ever male of himself by any
pullu' man due oniy redeeming ^italitj abon: it

If there is one thing more than another that it
calculated to bring repnblicar sm into contempt
ia the eyee ef foreign nations, it is the premium uel 1
at to ;effi« ials to be lasy and corrupt while they
are in, ia order to Indemnify the mi tire- when they

but not more severe than the disease is violent.
Abcliiion llr'.manity Tlstko..A shirt time S'
since, a gentleman named Cre-well died in New
Orleans, in possession of several negroes. On open- ^irg bis will it was found that he decreed the freedomof all bis slaves, and directed tb it they should
^be sent to one of the free States; that their names
should be registered in court as free persons, no ^longer to be held in bondage; and that his execu-
^
tors bhould appoint some trustworthy man to attendtheir removal to the free States. In accord- J
anee with the directions of the deceased, the txecu-
^
tors appointed a gentleman to superinted the removalof the slaves thus emancipated. This agent jinquired of Governor Hunt if there was any ob- ^
stade in the way of his bringing them to the Stat*
of New York. Mr. Hunt published that part of
the will referring to the request of Mr. Creswell,
together with the agent's letter to him on the sab- jjeet, and requested that our philanthropic citizens
who are ready to lend a practical a-sistance to the
cause of emancipation, by receiving the slaves,
^
and making suitable provision for their employmentaud maintenance, would communicate the
fact to the agent, with such information as would
aid him in the performance of his trust.
This correspondence has been extensively published,and every abolitionist in the State has, no ^doubt, read it. We wonder if any of them
will consent to receive these slaves, and put
thorn in the way of providing for their own
support. Here is a noble chance presented to ls
them to put in practice the principles of humanity 0
and philanthrophy which they possess, and which
they assert impel them to war against slavery in the ^Southern States. Here is an excellent opportunity
for these noisy declaiuners to serve the eauseof hu- 11
inanity. Wc have not heard, however, that any of
these worthies have come forward and announced
^their willingness to help these slaves, or to lend their
^
asSittanee in currying into effect the desires of the
testator Nor do wc think that they will. Such 0
assistance will, in all probability, be rendered.not
^by these noisy demagogues.but by people who
talk Was, but in whose breasts real phiiaathr-phy 0
exists, if Mr-Creswell had not emancipated them, 0
the abolitionists would no doubt be willing to con- t
^tribute both time and money, to stealing them from
tbeir owners, towards employing agents to lurk and 0
prowl about their muster's bouse, towards putting a
a pistol in the hands of ea h to be used agiinst the ®
owner or any other person who might attempt to
prevent thciu from escaping, and if they reashed j'
the North, towards sending them to the .-now* of 1
Canada, where they become a burden on society, ®
and where they are more despised and more degrad- 11
td than they would be if they had remained with
tbeir masters. Thi-> would have been a glorio is *
feat, and the abolitionists would split their throats
in glorifying over it at the next anniversary in the ^
Tabernacle- ! '
Such i- Northern abolitionism. We never yet 1Jknew of one of its advocates giving a v«nt towards
purcbas og the freedom of a slave, while they will 8
cntr.bute thousands, and swear on the holy evan-
gclisf, in a manner perfectly revolting,in eadeuvor- ^
ing to prevent a fugitive's extradition in accordance
with a law of the lind, based upon the constitution w
of the 1 nited States, arc! with their duty towards 1
'heir .eilo* citizens in ibe slave holding States.
It is a pest, a nuisance, a plague whose c urse all 11
good uien, and ail parties and classes, should aid '
n arresting. It countenances robbery, an 1 justifies
murder in the execution of it. It ha* insinuated '
itself into fie politics of the countty, and came
ucar destroying this glorious 1 nion, which i* hardly
jet secure from the assaults that thee enemies of <
law at d oxler have made upon it. And yet the '
two political parties of the North continually co<juet fi
with and succumb to this factious, rebellious, and (<
anarchical spirit. The Martin Van Burcns on the «
ote tide, and the Weeds anl Greeley* on tbe other, J
have identi'ed themselves and their parties with it J
for the purpose of securing office. But Greeley's
philanthropy was so transparent, that eren the *
negroes themselves have become di«gu<ted with it,
sr.d now repudiate both him and it. Weed's tune
is not yet come, but it is not far distant. The s
mark will be stripped from him as it hat been from »
his co-laborer in New York When this is done, «
he will have to rerort to some other " good enough Jj| Morgan " to aid him ia his demagogueis*.

Thus the preliminariee were arranged, and on Thur
3 day Mr. Weaver commenced making preparations ft
e the next night. The dining room being larger than tl
i ballroom « as appropriated lor dancing, and the ball roo
proper was made to answer for a supper room. In ord.
b to produce the necessary quantity of light, the dinir
s room was ornamented by eight arches and ten ornaiuet
y tal columns, which were all rurmountid by wax candle
, to the number of nearly bOO. besides which, were twelt
magnificent chandeliers, each compysedof a number
globe lamps. The parage way between the main buil.
ing anil the building know i as the Colony, was fence
in to keep lb- rabble from intruding upon the prcmisi9 in the evening, and the platform and entry of the Ci
lony was hai.d«omi:ly carpeted. Tea was disposed of
an car'y hour, the tables removed, the candles and lam;
i lighted and the floor properly pr. pared for dancing
At half-]aat nine o'clock, the band etru:k up the flr
air named on the programme and the company b-gtn
an.-i mblc and join in the promenade. They kept comin
by dozens and by scores, until there were so many i
