The TABERSAoLE.-We do not wish TO alarm
any one unnecessarily; but at the Tabernacle the
other evening we thought we saw nine different
cracks in the circular timbers forming the base Of
the arehed roof, which supported by columns.
These cracks look very dangerous, although the
Guiding may be very safe and strong Still as the
season has arrived when thousands of the best and
farest of the inhabitants of this city, will crowd the
Tabernacle without thinking on the subject OF ats
safety we think that the least which the owners can
dc is to get some experienced architects or builders
20 examine and pronounce upon the cause OF those
cracks We should like to have the opinion OF Mr.
Rogers, the architect Of the Merchants Exchange,
this subject.

HUrr's MEsCHASrs MAGAZINE The existence
OF this popular periodical in remarkable degree H.
lustrates the great evolution in periodical lters-
ture, which has been brought about in the last few
years. At the time the Herald was established
commercial articles or information scarcely ever
appeared in the public papers; very msagre price
currents comprised all. The commercial articles
commenced by the Herald were the first Of the kind
They attracted the attention Of the mercantile com.
munity, and propsgated a spirit Of inquiry which
has constantly increased in interest until every daily
paper in the country feels the necessity Of making
commercial information leading feature. The Wall
stree, papers have All attempted them, bot from
want Of talent and industry have not succeeded
The Herald for early and correct information still
occnpies the whole ground. The interest excited
this subject has however allied the attention Of
many eminent literary men TO the subject;sn the n
views being mostly theoretical have been put before
the public in Hunts Magazine IN interesting form.
The November number has a valuable historical ac-
count Of the whole fishery Of the United States A
desertation on the banking ~ stem Of Msssso huses
Is fraught with good deal Of interest Also the 60
vsrnmen'sl History Of the United States, is well

SLAwpER.-Abraham p. Perkins VS. anthony w
Morse The parties in this case had been engaged
in business together in Nassau street in the spring
of 80, and the action brought to recover com
pensatioR in damages for certain offensive words
spoken BY the defendant in the month Of October
last, at some public house. Tie alleged offensive
words were, that the plaintiff ga title damned
thief" On the part Of the defence, an attempt was
made 10 justify the slandsrous words, by showing
that the plaintiff had been in the defendants en-
poy clerk, and that he had collected certain me-
MES and made no return TO the defendant.
On the part Of the plaintiff, it was shown that he
was dormant partner, instead Of clerk, and that
as partner he had perfect right to collect tho
monies Of the firm, and apply them to bis use or
not. II was also shown that Tor some pecuniary
difficulties which the defendant lsbored under
at that time the plaintiff was anxious 10 keep the
fact Of his partnership secret from his friends
His honor charged the jury that il they were salts
fed that the plaintiff partner, then the defend
ant must be held amcnable for the SANDER, as the
plaintiff would hsvea right to collect for the firm
without accounting 10 his copartner II plaintiff
was only a clerk, and he had neglected to make a
return Of the monies he had collected, and the words
were intended TO apply to his conduct under those
circumstances, defendant could be held amenable
The jury found for the plaintiff, damages $500
and costs.
