ItRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH, NEW-ROAD. LONDON. at krtatlon, MORISON have just received the following notarial at treto,nun:_. under seal from N. U. Martin, Esq., notary public of Cape FINANCIAL REFORM. REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE. In our advocacy of a Financial Reform, it will be seen that we do not seek to confer a privilege upon one class, at the expense of an other; but in our transactions, to apply principles of such sterling value and universal import as must prove, in the fullest sense of the term, equally advantageous to all. We seek, in fact, to reduce, not the income, but the expenditure, of every Individual. How this may be effected the following outline of our novel, yet well appreciated business system, will readily show. POSSESSING LARGE ESTABLISHMENTS in most of the principal towns in Great Britain, our concentrated purchases are necessarily very extensive ; from this cause we are enabled to obtain materials direct from the manufacturers, for cash, at prices considerably lower than the average. Our.garments are de signed and cut by talented artists, and manufactured by experienced workmen ; our profits are calculated at a nominal per-centage upon original cost, and the price is marked on every garment, in plain Itzures, from which no deviation is allowed. These facts, together with the accommodation afforded by the exchange of garments not approved after purchase, afford advantages to our patrons such as have bean seldom. if ever, elsewhere presented, enabling them to effect a reduction in their expenditure, at least in the item " Clothing," of not less than 40 per cent., as the following brief price list will testify to some extent : " Richmond County, Cape Breton. March 12, 1849. It, " To Jqhn M'Ktnnon, Esq., Ilygelan Agent. me ,_" e ar Str,—Tha extraordinary cures which have been reported to sev ed un der a variety of complaints, end persons who labour "°_'w c onvalescent through the benefits derived from the pills sold by your , agents in this district, known as Morison's Pills, deserves the th""t Pnblicity, and I should be wanting in commOn gratitude to t4discoverer of this valuable medicine did I for one moment beg in' to advance my opinion that its effects have saved many from a e"ature grave, particularly in this portion of Cape Breton, "where medical attendance and advice cannot be procured without enormous ‘`, Lar gee ruinous to any poor person. Being a sceptic for years as to the Wonderful Cures which I read and heard of, and I must confess too p r one to ridicule the pills as the production of quackery, I think it but fair to acknowledge my error, and manly on my part to offer 'his apology to you as the agent for that Incomparable medicine.

Swan-street, Borough, takes this OPPOF ttinity of publicly th an ki ng Mr. W. Orimstone, of the IlerbarY, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hal r is much stronger and more luxuriant than /ever was before the baldness appeared. "Mrs. Weekley Inserts this testimony to:the virtues of Mr. G.'s Rag.nator, feeling assured th at many ladies would gladly purchase an i is. bottle it they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a tollet pertain° 11l far beyond any to her taste.

The most &Coate ladies may use this delightful .Product of the Melt aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops en the crown of the head; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour.

Come let me give thy neck a friendly pat; I will not harm thee, rest assured of that. In vain did Honeycomb and Old Dan Tuck Do what they could to leave thee in the ruck. These didst thou beat, while Vatican and Nanny, Beside thy noted self looked rather funny. The Crowner thou bast crowned, and Vanguard, too, And proved how little Chantrey's legs could do. The chattering of The Chatterer thou bast hushed, And even past brave Hotspur hast thou rushed. Old Fox and Tadmor, Goodwood and The Knout, Thy nimble shanks have beaten out-and-out ; While o'er the land thy triumphs are rehearsed In these few words—" The Flying Dutchman First. ° Ah ! gallant horse ! the way the Derby closes, Has furnished me a thought or two for Moses. First, like thyself, have Moses e'er been Whatever may have come to intervene : First in the quality of their attire, And first imstyle —a style which all admire. The Trousers, Coats, and Vests, of M. and Son Have gained the odds of a successful run ; And all who view the articles will find That competition's efforts lag behind. Thus, Flying Dutchman, have I done my duty, And now a word to those who win the booty : To such successful winners I would say, Improve the winnings of the Derby Day. And if they ask how this may best be done, I'd simply point to Messrs. H. and Son. LIST OF PRICES. MDT MADE.

AMERICAN NEWS. DREADFUL RIOTS IN NEW YORK. [We yesterday published a summary of the news received by the steam-ship America; we now sub join the interesting details.] NEW YORK, MAY 16.—The letters brought by the Cambria, last week, showed that Forrest's (the American actor's) attempts to drive Mr. Macready from the New York stage, had, by the aid of a ruffian snob, been so far successful as to prevent Macready going through with the performance of Macbeth on the night of his first appearance. At the time of writing we little dreamed that the city would be thrown into terror, much less that riot and terrible loss of human life would result from continued efforts of some parties to carry out their unjustifiable and lawless designs. New York has now played its share in the revolutionary wars of 1849, its revolution brought about by the quarrels of two actors. Between 20 and 30 persons were killed by the troops, and many wounded. The affair may be thus shortly re lated. After Macready's first reception he had deter mined to leave, and had arranged to do so ; he was, however, persuaded to make another trial, having re , ceived an address, signed by many of the leading gentlemen of New York. The following is the letter :- 46 T0 W. C. MACREADY, ESQ. " Dear Sir,—The undersigned, having heard that the outrage at the Astor-place Opera House on Monday evening is likely to have the effect of preventing you from continuing your performance ; and from concluding tour intended farewell engagement on the American stage, take this public method of requesting you to re conSider your decision, and of assuring you that the good sense and respect for order prevailing in this com munity will sustain you on the subsequent nights of your performances : " Ambrose L. Jordan, Edward Sandford, Willis Hall, James Foster, jun., D. C. Pell, Ogden Hoffman, Howard Henderson, Samuel B. Ruggles, James Collis, Edward S. Gould, William Kent, John W. Francis, Wessell S.

Mr. Macready could not well refuse this request, urged under such a plea. He acceded in the follow ing terms : " TO WASHINGTON IR V I NG, WILLIAM KENT. &C., ESQS. " Dear Sirs,—l have the honostr of acknowledging your obliging letter delivered to me this day. " It is one I find some difficulty in answering. " Under the unprovoked indignities offered to me in the Astor-place Theatre, it was certainly my desire and my fixed purpose to avail myself of the legal right thus offered me, and withdraw at once from my engagement contracted there. " In leaving this country, which has been endeared to my recollection by long and strong attachments, I should not have done you the injustice of associating the American character with the ill-deeds of persons, un happily too frequently to be found in every large com munity; and in the same spirit which would preserve me from a hasty and inconsiderate judgment upon the late occurrences, I assent to your request, honouring and feeling grateful for the sentiment that has dic tated it.

The rights of the pro prietors, the rights of Mr. Macready, the rights of those who went to the theatre, the rights, in short, of the peaceable and order-loving portion of the commu nity, were preserved and vindicated ; though only by an appeal to the last resort, and, we are sorry to say, at a fearful cost. A crisis had arrived which it was the duty of the authorities to meet, firmly and effectively; they un derstocd this, and met it promptly, adequately, and definitely. 'They showed that, though forbearing, they could actin time theOwnour, credit, and order of the community whose servants they are.

The Prince of Wales and Princess Royal, and the younger branches of the Royal Family, walked and rode in the grounds at Osborne. There was no addition to the Royal dinner party. The Rev. J. Protheroe performed the service and preached the service in Whippingham Church yesterday morning. The Queen and the Prince, and the Ladies and Gentlemen of the Royal Household, attended the service. Sir James Clark left Osborne yesterday for London. Her Royal Highness tne iiiieuess of Kent, attended by Lady Augusta Bruce, left town at half-past nine ki'clock yesterday morning, for her residence, Frogmore louse, Windsor. Her Royal Highness returned to Cla rence House, St. James's, in the afternoon. Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambrid g e, and the Princess Mary, and the Heredit ar y Grand Duke and Brand Duchess of Meoklenbur g h Stre litz, arrived at Cambridge House, Piccadilly, yesterday afternoon, from Kew. The Duchess of Cambridge and the Hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Mecklenburgh Sttelitz, visited her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, at Gloucester House, after their arrival. His Royal Highness Prince George attended Divine service on Sunday, in the Chapel Royal, St. James's. Dispatches were sent off yesterday evening from the Colonial-office for the Governor of the Mauritius. The overture was played without any demonstra tions of disorder. The witch scene was got through without interruption ; and when Macduff appeared he was greeted with very marked applause by a small squad in the parquettes, and a somewhat larger one in the amphitheatre. On Mr. Macready's first en trance he was greeted with tremendous applause. The house, it was apparent, was in his favour hundreds to one. But there were groaning and hissing, and the party in the parquette directly down to the or chestra was tremendously uproarious, doubling their fists at Macready as he came forward, and bidding him " Be off ! be off!" &c. This was endured for a long time, and the first act was nearly all dumb show. At length the uproar became perfectly frantic, and the friends of order were requested from the stage to keep quiet. About this time the chief of police ap peared in front of the boxes, and ordered the police (who had been marking their men) to take the rioters out from below, and his order was obeyed to the letter. His men did their duty valiantly, and they were taken out, carried down stairs, and put under a strong guard. Meantime the clam our cont i nue d a bove ; and very soon the Recorder appeared in the parquette with his staff of office, accompanied by the chief of police, and called on the police to take out those who were dis turbing the house. This was done, and the rioters were carried below, d amidst the plaudits of the a u die n ce. As it grew dark (the curtain was raised at half past seven) the crowd outsid e , co mprising thousands of persons, rioters and an Ipouotkewrsi.toh theirn companions, , increased im mensely, in Astor-place (on the south west), and i n Eighth-street (on the north-east of the theatre). Juet about the time when the gallery loafers were ejected, ther e commenced e r f Stonese c t were thrown of the house f r om the outside.''' against the w i n d ows ( w hi c h were carefully barricaded inside), and there was one n aur of almost uninter frruapntteide yells of B,rnnsOing of glass, ac companied by the most the mob outside. Some of the stones (and, at times, a volley of them appeared to be thrown together) broke down the barricades in places, came in among the audience, causing several of them to leave their seats very precipitately. One stone hit the great glass chandelier, and caused a goo d deal of scattering. But through all this the play went on, and with a comparative possibility of hearing it. Nobody on the stage appeared in the least alarmed, though many of the missiles were falling on the stage, from the outside, very much, by this time. Mr. dacready, particularly, preserved his equanimity admirably. We have never seen the fifth act of Macbeth so splen didly and perfectly performed. From time to time there were pauses in the uproar from outside, and intermissiors in the assault of stones. This, in fact, was, at about nine o'clock, entirely stopped on the Eighth street side. The in siders, as it turned out, truly attributed this to the action of the military, which was surrounding the theatre in force. The rioters were evidently checked in their outrages upon the house for a time; so that the closing scenes in the tragedy were distinctly heard and appreciated. Mr. Macready never acted better. He was called out, and bowed his acknow ledgments of the warm plaudit which greeted him on his appearance. About this time there was I renewal of the din outside; and just as the curtail rose for the farce two members of the National guard were brought into the boxes, badly hurt by tones from the mob, and medical attendance was 'emended for them, which was luckily at hand. During all this a most diabolical hail storm of paving-stones was projected through the broken windows upon the heads of the inprotected audience, who were forced to dodge, as best they might, from the fearful projectiles. The :nob outside was in creasing each moment in numbers and ferocity. Several of the policemen had been brought in severely wounded, one or two of the intrances were forced, and as everything appeared lile a most fixed deter mination on the part of the rioers outside to destroy the house, and the most immient danger impended over its inmates, Mayor Woodall], who was present, gave orders to General Sandfod to bring the mill. THEATRE ROYAL.—Our theatre this week has had peculiar attractions, sterling pieces having been per formed each evening. On Tuesday.

On Thursday the play was Richard the 7 bird. Mr. Owen was very flatteringly re ceived each evening. This actor's superior talent has been publicly recognised all over the country. At Devonport, he was presented with a beautiful silver snuff-box; at Newcastle-upon-Tyne ho received a valuable watch and o a r tgshpu character. l a teh r n dfor e d, splendid chain his he Lastra officers night hrtehhe3i s 3 representa tion representationeßp playedMe eg s emsnhet yan o .t f . r o ea n : Pb o ne f tt eh t the e ba s in : idme w ith t lock, in the Merchant of Venice, before a highly respect able auditory, and Mrs. Beaumont Owen appeared as Clara, in Charles the Second.

Mr. George Owen will make his last appearance this evening in The Iron Chest. It will be seen by advertisement that the celebrated Mr. George Wild, and also Miss Fanny Williams, a wall-known vocalist, have been engaged for the ensuing week, and, that the lessee's complimentary benefit is fixed for Tues day evening.—York Herald.

New York Tribune, SLtEaRt.;l; tary into the nuies. The order was promptly obeyed, and in a few minutes several companies of the National Guard were placed in position round' the theatre. They were at first greeted with hisses and groans, but in a short time, just after the curtain fell on Macbeth, the paving -stones began to be hurled at them, and many of them were very severely, if not fatally, injured. They stood this pitiless pelting, however, like veterans, and for nearly half an hour submitted, without an effort at retaliation, to the dangerous assault, only removing their comrades in-0 side the theatre so fast as they were struck down. This passiveness on their part seemed, however, only to increase the rage of the infuriated rioters, and at the solicitations of the chief of police, Mr. Recorder Tallmadge, amid a shower of missiles, ventured his life to warn them off. The caution was unheeded, and the Mayor and Sheriff Westervelt being called to the scene—the danger every moment becoming more imminent—the order was finally, very reluctantly, given to fire. To the honour of the National Guard, as citizen soldiers, a platoon instantly answered the summons ; a number of the mob fell, and among them a noted convict from the state prison. The rioters then re treated in confusion, but, soon rallying, they came on more determined than ever ; and it was only after three more volleys had been discharged into the ex cited crowd that they were induced to retire. Pro bably 200 balls were fired ; between 20 and 30 per sons were shut dead on the spot or have since died, and numerous others wounded. Mr. Macready made the beat of his way out of the town, and is now at Boston. Nobody blames him in the slightest degree ; he is supported by all ; even the mob who rioted say he was not to blame. We cannot refrain from expressing the high satisfaction we felt at the noble conduct evinced by the respectable portion of the American audience assembled on that occasion. Their enthushistic and generous support of Mr. Macready, in which even the ladies joined with determined zeal and cordiality, coupled with the firm ness and dignity with which Mr. Macready sustained himself during the whole of the trying scene, actually converted what was intended for a brutal indignity into a species of moral triumph. The courage and gentlemanly bearing of Macready never wavered for a single moment. Even to the falling of the cur tain, when his personal safety was involved by the hurling and crashing of the chairs at his feet, we could detect no symptom whatever of shrinking or fear. It was indeed a striking exhibition of mental superiority opposed to mere brute force. As a natural consequence great excitement has pre vailed since this sad affair. Malignant efforts were made by placards to d r aw ou t a demonstration of British feeling on th e su bj ec t. The B t itish•com• munity, however, have taken no part in the matter, having the most unbounded confidence in the will and power of the citizens of New York to uphold their own laws, and protect all who cone amongst them. THE RIOTS AT NEW YORK. (From the New York Weekly Herald) NEW YORK, FRIDAY, MAY 11. It is our painful and melancholy duty to chronicle one of the saddest and most terrible occurrences that ever took place in this city. It is well knovln that Mr. Macready was driven from the stage of that theatre on Monday evening last, by persons who had attended that establishment for the purpose. On Wednesday, several gentlemen of this city united in writing a note to Mr. Macready, regretting the occurrence, end requesting him to appear again and conclude his engagement, which was to be his last in this country. To this note Mr. Macready replied that he would again perform. Ac cordingly, bills were issued, and other arrangements made, for his appearance. In the meantime rumours prevailed throughout the city, that the opposition to Mr. Macready's appearance w ould be persisted in, and that ar rangements bad been made to carry this determination into effect. The municipal authorities made their arrangements likewise, and it became evident throughout the day that there would be a serious col lision between the rioters and the authorities, in the event of the former attempting to carry their threat into execution. During Thursday, the probability of such a collision was much discussed by all classes of the com munity, and great and anxious interest felt in the result. As early us half past six o'clock persons began to assemble around the theatre ; and, at about seven, crowds were seen wending their way to the theatre from all parts of the city. By Wt . -past seven there were several hundreds in the street, in front of the Opera House, and the rush to get admittance, was tremendous. Tickets for a sufficient number to fill the house were soon sold, and the announcement was made on a placard that no more would be sold. Meantime, the crowd out side was increasing every minute. Every avenue to the theatre soon became densely crowded. Astor-place was occupied by an immen.e assemblage, almost all of whom had apparently been attracted by curiosity. The portion of the Bowery ad joining the theatre was also crowded, and, in Broadway, which had at that time been opened for the purpose constructing a sewer, hundreds of persons were seen crowded together on the top of the mound of earth thrown up from the centre of the street. The house itself was filled to the dome. A great portion of the assemblage in the theatre consisted of policemen, who had been distributed all over the house in detached parties. There was not any appearance of an organized party of rioters i❑ the house. When the curtain rose, there was an outburst of hisses, groans, cheers, and miscellaneous sounds, similar to those which interrupted the performance on Monday night. The opening scenes, however, were got through with after a fashion, several persons who hissed and hooted having been seized by the police, and immediately conveyed to an apartment underneath the boxes, where they were placed under the charge of a posse of the police-officere. Macready's appearance was the signal fora great ex plosion of feeling. Hisses, groans, shouts of derision assailed him, intermingled with loud cries of " Out with him I out with him!" Large numbers of the auditory started to their feet, ard called on the police to eject the individuals who had expressed their disapprobation, and several arrests were made in the manner we have described, each arrest being followed by loud cheers and applause all over the house. It was speedily apparent that those unfriendly to Mr. Macready were in the minority. Thus the play proceeded through the first two acts. There had been a great deal of trepidation behind the scenes, but the heroism with which the actors and actresses sustained themselves on the stage is worthy of all praise. The manner of Mrs. Pope, the Lady Mac beth of this melancholy night, deserves the most honourable mention. It was, indeed, a trying scene. Mr. Macready repeatedly expressed to Mr. Hackett his wish to desist, and his desire to avoid any further colli sion with those whe were opposed to his appearance; but, amid the shouts, groans, hisses, and arrests by the police, the play, as we have said, went on, much of it in dumb show, but portions of it without much interrup tion. It was supposed, at this moment, that the tumult would be effectually quelled, for the disturbance in the house became less and less, and even some passages of Mr. Macready's part were heard with a tolerable degree of order. The first persons arrested in the parquetto were four young men, who were locked up in the temporary pri son under the boxes which we have already described. In this apartment was a gas-light burning, end the pri soners, pulling up some shavings and pieces of wood, set fire to them. When the policemen opened the door, the plane was full of crneke, hut tho officora spoedily extinguished the fire. The prisoners who had attempted this atrocious crime were immediately put in irons. At this moment a shower of stones assailed the windows of the theatre. News then came in from the street, through Captain Tilley, of the 13th ward, that a man, known to be Edward Z. C. Judson, was heading the mob outside, and calling upon thetn to stone the build ing. The Chief of Police immediately ordered his ar rest, which was promptly effected. In the meantime the assault upon the doors and windows continued. Volley after volley of large paving stones was discharged against the windows. The glass was, of course, in a few mo ments, all smashed to atoms ; but having been barri caded, the windows resisted the attack for some minutes; however, the fragments of at last yielding , glas s , and blinds, and barricades being driven in with violence int o the body of the house, great alarm began to pervade the audience. Rumours of all kinds----that the house was to be fired—that it was to be blown up, and so un, were cir culated. The ladies, seven in number, who were pre sent, and who, with a heroism th a t did i n fi n it e credit to their sex, had till this moment pr eserve d th e i r cqutt i 'pity, now became alarmed, as well they might, and shifted their seats to the part of the house not in the range of any of the windows through which the stones and fragments of glass and wood were now flying. At this time the scene within the house was indeed most exciting. In front and rear the tierce assaults of the mob, as they thundered at the doors, resounded all over the theatre, whilst the shouts and yells of the as sailants were terific. Inside, however, all was compara tively quiet. The admirable arrangements of the Chief of Police and the It' corder, and the fidelity and intelli gence with which their orders wore carried out b sa y the tom ! under their comm An d, secur ed the peace and fety of the interior of the building. We cann i :) i t y, a .h le .t rd ti teo much praise to the police for the m anner !ey arrested the leading rioters in the hour, sand making sorties among the crowd outside, secured many of the ringleaders of the mob.

The POLICIES are INDEFEASIBLE and INDISPUTABLE, .he Company being prohibited, by the 94th clause of their Deed of Constitution, which is duly registered in terms of the Act, from dis; puting a Policy upon any ground whatever. The Rates of Premium are calculated upon Carlisle mortality, and are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify. HALF PREMIUM SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the premiums, with interest of the retained halves, is required to be p aid for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to form a deduction from the claim on the Policy ; and as the As surance may be relinquished at any time without payment of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate, and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice. WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are granted, whereby the security of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits. Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a specified age, or at their death, whichever shall first occur. PARTNER POLICI ES are granted, whereby ajoint assurance effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures the capital in vested. Oa the death of either, the survivor is benefited by retain ing the whole capital, and the representatives of the deceased obtain their share without having to wait until it can be recovered from outstanding debts. There is no extra charge for residence beyond 35 degrees of the equator. No Admission or Entrance Fees are required, nor is any charge made for the Policy beyond the amount of the Stamp.

A troop of bor,c then turned from Broadway into Astor.place, and rode through the crowd to the Bowery, receiving showers of stones and other missiles on their way. The horses became unmanageable, and the troop di.l not again make its apptarance on the ground. In a few minutes afterwards the National Guard, one of our independent volunteer c.enpanirs, made their appearance on the ground, and ettemple.l to force a passage through the crowd to the theatre. The mob hissed and hooted at them, and finally attacked them with stones, which were at hand in canscqn , .nee of the building of a sower in the neigl►bou -hood. The company were at this period thrown into disorder by the attack made upon them, and retired to Broadway, where they rallied, and made another attempt to reach the theatre. They were hissed and pelted as before with stones, but they succeeded in reaching the desired point. They then endeavoured to form in line on the side-walk, and while doing so five or six of them were felled to the ground by paving stones, and taken into the theatre in a state of insensibility. Captain Pond, the captain of the com pany, was one of those thus injured. The next officer in command then said to the Sheriff, who was on the ground, that if he did not get orders to fire he and his men would abandon the streets. Accord ingly that officer directed the company to fire a round over the heads of the people, which was accordingly done, but without effect. The people continued to pelt them with paving stones as before. An order was then given to the company to fire at the crowd, and it was don*, two men falling, one shot in the arm, and the other through the right cheek. The first was sent to the hos pital, but the other was found to be dead. After the volley the mob retreated a short distance, but rallied and renewed the attack with greater vigour than before. raving stones and other missiles were discharged at them in great quantities; and while the mob was going on, another volley was fired by the military, killing and wounding several more, some of whom were taken by their friends to the drug store, on the corner of Ninth street and Broadway. One young man, named John McKinley, of No. 147, Third avenue, was shot through the body, and taken to a publ►c-house in the neigh bourhood. - - . After this volley the crowd retreated again, and the military and police took advantage of it to form a line across the street at both ends of Astor-place, so as to prevent any connexion between Broadway and the Bowery. Major-General Sandford then issued an order for more troops and two brass pieces loaded with grape to be brought to .the scene immediately, as it was ru moured that the crowd intended to arm themselves and renew the attack. It was at this time half-past eleven o'clock, and the additional troops, consisting of several companies and the artillery, reached the scene in dis order. The cannon loaded with grape were placed in front of the theatre, ready in case of a renewal of the attack. NEW YORK, SATURDAY, MAY 12. As will be readily imagined, the excitement through out the city, growing out of the deplcrable occurrences of the previous night, was most intense throughout the whole of yesterday. Everywhere little groups of per sons, of all classes, were observed discussing the affair, and expressing their opinions with more or less vehe mence. As an illustration of the absorbing interest felt in the matter, we may state that no fewer than thirty three thousand five hundred copies of the Herald, con taining our full and graphic account of the whole Me lancholy affair, were disposed of, and circulated all over the city. Our telegraphic accounts from other cities, brought intelligence that an equally intense excite ment prevailed wherever the heartrending news had been dispatched. Of course, considerable diversity of opinion on all the principal features of the case pre vailed amongst those who were engaged, in the streets and elsewhere, in conversation on the subject. It was manifest, however, that the business had assumed a new aspect in the minds of many, and that it was looked upon by them as involving nothing short of a controversy and collision between those who have been styled the " exclusives," or " upper ten," and the great popular masses. Some blamed the authorities with no little acrimony—others applauded them. It was gene rally considered, however, among the more intelligent and dispassionate classes, that a proelamation should have been issued by the Mayor, warning the citizens against participating, even in the most passive manner, in any tumultuous assemblage at the Astor-place Theatre or elsewhere, and that an overwhelming miltary force should have taken possession of the ground at an early hour, and prevented the gathering of a crowd in the vicinity of the building. Throughout the day rumours were abundant that a riotous organization of the most formidable characler was in progress, and that a still more bloody acne than that of the preceding night might be anticipated. It was said that tire-arms bad been purchased and obtained in large quantities by persons riotously disposed. Almost all over the city the following placard had bcea p sted in the most conspicuous places, attracting crowds of readers: "Aiuei i.*uSl ttrouoGl the great crisis has come! ! De cide now whether English aristocrats!!! and foreign rule! shall triumph in this America's metropolis, or whether her own suns, whose fathers once compelled the base born miscreants to succumb, shall meanly lick the hand th . it strikes, and allo w th ems elves to be deprived of the liberty of opinion—so dear to every true American heart. Americ ins! come oui! and dare to own your selves sons of the iron hearts of '76!! AMERICA." A still larger placard, of a hich we give a copy, was also posted, calling for a meeting in the Park:— " To the Park !—The citizens of new York, opposed to the destruction of humsn lite, are requested to assemble in the Park, at six o'clock, this evening!! Friday, May 11, to express public opinion upon the lamentable oc• currence of last night." It was then apparent that an attempt was in progress, of some kind or another, to give an expression of feeling which might lead to unpleasant consequences. The authorities were not inactive. A long consultation was held by them in the morning. The lessee of the Astor place Theatre announced his design to close the house for the present. Orders were issued to the military to be in readiness at any moment , a nd the following proclama tion was issued by the Mayor, and dispersed all over the city:— " PROCLAMATION. " The Mayor of the city, while deeply deploring the oss of life which has resulted from the maintenance of .he law during the past night, reminds all Vie citizens hat the peace of the city must be maintained. " He calls on all good citizens to sustain the magis tracy. The efforts of the authorities will be considerate —will be humane; but they ought to be, and must be firm. " lie recommends all citizens for some days to remain as quiet as possible within their own dwellings, and to abstain from swelling public assemblages, and from all acts that tend to encourage the riotously disposed. "The effect of crowds is to expose the innocent to the injury arising from the measures which must be taken. " The peace of the city must and shall be maintained, by the whole civil and military power of the county. " It must always be remembered that the military is but a portion of the police of our city, composed of our own fellow-citizens, who have volunteered to maintain the supremacy of their own laws.

The grand jury of the Court of Sessions, deeming conciliatory measures called for, yesterday made the following presentment:— " To the lion. the Court of Sessions of the City and County of New York. " The grand inquest, taking into consideration the highly excited state of the public feeling, growing out of the riot of the last 24 hours, would present the neces sity of adopting such conciliatory measures as may tend to allay the excitement, and recommend that the Fer formanco at the Opera House be suspended for the present. (Signed) "JOHN CAMPBELL, Foreman. " New York, May 11,1849." Mr. Campbell, the foreman of the grand jury, said to the Court i—The grand jury will cheerfully co-operate in any measures thought necessary for the preservation of the peace of the city. The Recorder stated to the grand jury that he would lay their communication before the Ma) or. lle thanked the inquest for their profTo red ti id, and so dismissed them. MR. MACREADY'S DEPARTURE FROM THE CITY. (From the New York Weekly Herald, of May 16.) Mr. Macready left the New York Hotel, where he was living, and departed from the city at three o'clock yesterday morning, accompanied by several of his friends. He expressed his determination to return no more for ever. Ills baggage was taken away yesterday morning, at five o'clock, in c harge of a friend. After the firing of the first round from the military, a friend of Mr. Macready told liiin that there had been bloodshed, which seemed to affect him very much. lie threw up his hands and exclaimed, " My God, has my appearance led to the sacrit reso flce of h u man life! I wish I ha d adhered to my firs lution, and not yielded to the solicitation of my friends. They assured mu there would be no diffi culty." Ile then retired to his dressing-room, and prepared to leave the theatre. After having got safely to the New York Hotel, it was deemed pru dent by himself and friends that he should leave the city as soon as possible, lest an attack should be made upon that house. The uniform of a soldier was cured, and in that disguise he left the hotel, on io t horse back, fur New Rochelle, where he could lt tis said wait fortl o fi ) f r sttsheT through c o i r t i ) i . i: r i but did not trn oexcite the Boston. c t r ho ow i crowd, , On hills that he paned way out lie stis several military officer s , wh o was accompanied by acted as an escort and b o dy guard, wasuntillpcimion, clear of followingTtihmecity. is a list of killed - George W.

Bill took effect in the groin and wine out of his back. On Saturday, at six o'clock, a meeting was held la the Park, at which the following violent resolutions were adopted :-- " Fellow-citizens,—ln view of the deep disgrace that' has fallen upon our city in consequence of the conduit of some of our citizen rulers last evening, the following resolutions are submitted for your consideration:— and dTehvoattewd et to love o t v h e e t w h e e l fa p r e e ac o e f , l t a h w e -a fi b r i s d t i n e g ity cit o i f ze t n h s e , union; but, above all, we cannot sanction the murder of innocent men by those whose sworn duty it is to pro tect them in all the tights of American citizens. " That we believe it is the duty of our city authorities if a riot takes place, or if they have good reason to believe that a riot, involving the destruction of life or property, will take place, to exhau.t the civil power of the county before resorting to the military, which is, in fact, the right arm of despotism, and ought to be the last resort of Americans. And here we must condemn the mayor of our city for not causing the Astor-place Opera-house to be closed, when he knew (as he says) that a riot would ensue if it were opened. " That we look upon the sacrifice of human lives in the vicinity of the Astor-place Opera-house, last night, as the moat wanton, unprovoked, and murderous .out rage over perpetrated in the civilised world ; and that the alders, abettors, and instigators, of that unparalleled crimo deserve, and shall receive the lasting censure and condemnation cf this community.. " That in our opinion it is the imperative duty of the grand jury of this county to indict tho mayor, recorder, and the sheriff of this city, for ordering the military to fire on the citizens curing the disastrous and bloody tragedy of last night. " That we mingle our tears and lamentations with the mourning friends and relatives of the men, women, and children, who have fallen victims to the pride, tyranny, and inhumanity of those who dressed in a little brief authority,' have shown a higher regard for the applause of those who courted a fatal issue than for the lives of their fellow citizens. " That we will attend the funerals of our murdered fellow citizens. " That a committee be appointed by the chairman to take testimony in relation to the lamentable affair of last night, for the purpose of presenting it to the proper au thorities and our tellow•citizens. " That we owe it to ourselves, to the high character of our city, to the genius of our institutions, to the vin dication of a large body of our fellow-citizens from the opprobrious and unfounded charges made against then!, to prove to our and their revilers that we respect the rights of others, are neither destructives nor law breakers, and, therefore, will not counsel or countenance the destruction of life or property. " That while we are opposed to all violence in theatres or elsewhere, we still 'Hoist that citizens have a perfect and indisputable right to express their approba tion or disapprobation in all places of public amuse ment; and we regard the arrest and imprisonment of persons last night, for merely expressing their opinions in the Opera-house, as only surpassed in atrocity by the outrage perpetrated outside among the people." Several other meetings of a similar character took place. The Coroner's inquest upon the bodies of the suf ferers, after sitting for three days, returned the follow ing verdict:— " We believe that George A. Curtis, John M‘Donald, Thomas Aylward, George Lincoln, Timothy Burns, Henry Otter], George W. Brown, William Butler, George W. Taylor, Owen Burns, Thomas Bulman, Niel Gray Mellis, Asa F. Collins, William Armer, Thomas Kearnin, Matthew Cahill, and George W. God ney, came to their deaths by gunshot wounds, fired by , he military during the riot before the Opera-house on Thursday evening, the 10th of May instant, by order of the civil authorities of the city of New York; and alit the eirenmstances exiting at the time justihed tne authorities in giving the order to fire upon the mob. We further believe that, if a large number of the police had been ordered out, the necessity of a resort to the use of the military might have been avoided. Js. H. PEnarNa, foreman WM. BANTA O. H.

" New York, May 14, 1849." There were yet several inquests to be held on the bodies of those who had died since the above jury was impannelled. This verdict, however, will, in all proba bility, regulate others in a great measure. Twenty-two persons in all had died up to the evening of the 15th, and thirty wounded remained, some of whom were not expected to survive. The following statement has been published by the friends of Mr. Macready:— " It is due to the feelings of Mr. Macready, who can not in his own person address the public after the mourn ful occurrences at New York, that an authentic state ment should be made, from which every right-minded man will be able to judge how far he is responsible fur what has been done. It would have been preferable that such a statement should emanate from persons in New York well acquainted with most of the facts, and who, we doubt not, at the proper time, would ha►e been ready to make a just representation of them to the public; but Mr. Macready has been compelled to leave that city, and as he is necessarily here for a short time before leaving the country, the undersigned have thought that justice to him, as well as the duty of hospitality, and a due re gard to public opinion, require that some citizens of Boston should obtain from Mr. Mecready some particu lars with a view to their publication. The undersigned have accordingly done so, and submit the following state ment of what they believe to be the facts:— " Mr. Macready arrived at New York on Friday, the 27th of April, with a view of taking there his farewell of the American stage. On the evening orthe same day he concluded an engagement with Messrs. Hackett and Niblo, to act at the Astor-place Opera House for four weeks, commencing on Monday evening, the 7th of Mays and the fact of his having made this engagement was immediately announced in the newspapers, and after wards placarded through the city. The space of 10 days, therefore, intervened between the public announce ment of his proposed appearance and the evening of his first performance. In this interval, from no quarter whatever, and by no channel, public or private, did Mr. Macready, living at one of the most public hotels in the eity of New York, receive any intimation that his re ception was likely to be unfriendly, or that any disturb ance would be created at the theatre, until he went upozi the stage in the character of Macbeth, on Monday even ing, the 7th of May. " Mr. George T. Curtis, of this city, a friend of Mr. Macready's, was at New York from the morning of Thursday, the 3d of May, until the - afternoon of Satur day, the sth, and states to us that he neither heard from Mr. Macready, with whom he had much conversation respecting hIY professional reception in the country, nor I roan any other person, the slightest intimation that any disturbance was apprehended. As the applause, how ever, which greeted Mr. Macready's first appearance on that occasion subsided, his ear was struck by sounds of another character, which give him the first warning he had received that his reception was likely to be in any month of Now Orleans.

(In the evening of Tuesday, the Bth, the letter of Mr. Washington Irving and others, most respectable persons, as deeply interested in preserving the peace of Ihe city as any person can be, was presented to Mr. Macready, requesting him to go on with his engagement. lie found on Wednesday morning the state of public opinion to be entirely on the side of order, and strong, in every form of expression, in its con demnation of his assailants; ho was told by persons of the highest respectability, in and out of official st a ti on , that there would be no disturbance, on a second appear ance, which he ought to regard, or which could net be checked by the police in its ordinary action; and the press of the city, almost without exception, spoke so se verily of the conduct of his assailants, that he, reasoning from his own experience of the manifestation and power of public opinion in similar cases, felt at last convinced that he ought to consent to re-appear. It was his own opinion, however, that the second performance ought to be postponed to Friday evening, to give time for all ex• citernent to subside, and to allow the circulation iof documents, which the press, with great unanimity, hal diclared disproved every charge that has been broughl against him. In this he was overruled by the judgment of those who represented to him, that the state of public opinion was as Fridayso might entirely o n t h a e c side a relaxation, e of order,thatandlong give opportunity to turbulent spirita again to attempt breaches of the peace. Under these views Mr. Macready prepared his answer to Mr. Irving and his associates.
