HEALTH.-The New Orleans Board of Health report l65 deaths from the lst of July to the l5th- fourteen days. The Bulletin estimates the population of the city 500 900, and states that large DOT ton of the mortality was among those who are not enumerated in this number. In evidence of this fact, it Is stated that 29 deaths(and most probably A otf- ers)-are classed under the head of unknown. The greatest prevalence of mortality is among those from the ages of 30 to 40. Five were between GO and 70 two between 70 and 80, and three between 100 aud no. There only twelve cases fever, including all types. Of sudden dea,hs articno mortis, sun stroke, &c. there twenty-one which large num- bcr is accounted for by the almost unexamped heat of the season. There was also one death of pair oi twins, with the exact conformation and connexion of the celebrated Siamese twins.
 In New York, for the week ending the 3I, there were only IF deaths. Population exceeding 300, ,- 900. In Philadelphia, during the same time, there were l30 deaths-population exceeding 25O, 900. In Boston, there were 16-population somewhere abou, lOO, 900. a.a i atf i.l .Hsi4s

TRIAL OF REV. MR. PIERPoNT.-The trial oi this reverend gentleman by the ecclesiastical council commenced in Boston on the 9th inst. The Boston Post, speaking of its progress the second day says it was proved yesterday that Mr. Pierpont had made razor strops and then the Ecclesiastical Council ad- journed till next morning. st.Iti
 The Boston Times, to show how it is expected to convict Mir. Permont, gives the substance of wit nesses' testimony on the second day.
 "A man, on being questioned, testified that he had left the Hollis church in disgust, Mir. Pierpont having used ndelicate' words in sermon, and that many ladies had expressed similar feelings of dissat- isiacion. On his examination, he was reques- ted to mention who had been so exceedingly dis gused, and named his own wife Had he not attend ed the church since the objectionable discourse ? Yes; but not when Mir. Pierpont preached; his cus- tom to go with his Wfe and family thee and wait himself outside, or go home. Why did not his wife and family go home?

 Ry MAiL.-We have dates to-day from N. York of the 18th and Washington of tue l4th.
 From the latter place, there is nothing of great ;mpouance. On the 18th m the senate, Mr.Wrighi in,roduced an amendment to the bank bproyilng' m substance that in case of suspension oi specie pay mens by the bank or any of its branches, shall be l,ble 10 the provisions of compulsory bankrupt law It was lost by vote of P to 20.
 In the house, the morning hour was occupied by sneech from Mir Bowne of New York, on the Me- l.eod case, wherein he took strong ground aga,ns' the administration. The bill aIpropriating $ii6' 900 for the payment of Navy pensions, due from the exhausted Navy pension fund, was considered, and after much opposition, passed
 The correspondent of the Charleston Cour'er says:- ..=#
 "I has been rumored that an attempt would be made to lay the Bank Bill the table m the Senate and to take up the land blll-and that the House would in the mean time. proceed 10 consider Dahh project which is to be reported from their Cnrrenc, Committee The project to be reported in the House is Mir Claws bin with Mir. Rives' amendment But whatever the house may do, is not probable that the Senate will lay their bill on the table They WI VII press it to a vote, whatever may be Its iaie' The opinion t1aI tile Efesluent WILL iSt"9e .e.' Mr. Claws bill has gained strength. The only chance for the passage of any bill, at this session, IS that sufficient number of Mir. Ciays friends in the Senate will give way, and allow the Rises bill to pass 'ha' body This may he the result"
 There was dreadful fire in the village of water ford, New York, on the 18th inst, which destroyed nearly the whole of that fourishing village The loss is estimated at l5O,OOO dollars. Among the
 D h.. .E buildings consumed were the Saratoga County Bank the Episcopal Church, Academy and Mansion House, besides seventy or eighty other tenemeniS.
 The Washington correspondent of the New York Courier and Enquirer alludng to the passage oi the distribution bill, says it forced through in such a hurry, and amidst SO much confusion and uproar' that one half those who voted upon it did not know precisely what they were voting for"
 By the way, the Courier is publishing series of editorials more abusive of the members of the cabinet than any thing to be found in the hottest locofoco paper in the country. It ayers that they have bar tered their principles for their place, and that they onght to have resigned, Sc. &c. The Journal of Commerce says, if Webb could only get the appointment of Postmaster of New York he would be as tame as sucking dove.

We give up our columns this evening principally to communications. They are all well and forclbly written. The review of the General Ticket system is masterly argument, and we sure, if ates- lively considered wironse every democrat to his strongest exertions in it's favor.
 Whatever tends to enlarge the franchise of the people, tends also to secure them against the nal. practices of public men, and that the general ticket system has this effect no man can doubt Under the district system, for all practical purposes, there is no such thing State representations It the Union up into districts, and makes the House of Re- presentatiyes the mere aggregation of as many dis trcts there members in that body.
 It needs no argument show that ths is viola tive of State soveregnty-of State rights and State dignity.
 Under such system, in the course of time, why might not the individuality of the Sates be swallowed up by that districts and the entire Union become a consolidation of mere districts!
 Each State we contend is much a unit any eo~e,nneHr III ,'Ir worsi- st nnon alntninug thai

The general ticket system secures this unity, while the district system tends to render it in distinct, and would ultimate merge it in federal consolidation. ...-. s

WAsHINGroN.-On the 12th in the Senate, after the morning hour had been consumed in considering the expediency of a bankrupt kt@, the bank bill came up.-Mr. Wright moved 10 amend the first sec- tion, by striking the subscription of the Govern ment. This proposition ably supported by the mover, who stated that he had listened in vain for any argument for the connexIon of the government with the bank He had been told the government was deeply in debt, yet here was a proposition to sink us l0,OOO,OOO deeper, for the purpose of buying bank stock. Mir. Clay, with great deal of petu- lance, reped.that the whole design of the democra- tic party 10 consumethe and eSbafrass the bill. Tathis MT. Calhoun answered, by stating that while the whigs had consumed eight days the bill, the democrats had only four.
 Mr. Wright's amendment was negatiyed--as was another which he proposed, to strike out the power to subscribe for the third of the remaining twen ty millions. in case it was was not taken by indiyi duals. Mir. Clay in of his remarks denounced the doctrine of repeal Jacobinical and mons rous Mir. Buchanan replied with much ability and showed that was only constitutional but had been cognized by the Supreme Court, Judge Marshall de- liyering the decision.
 In the House, Mir Jones of Virginia made pow erful speech in opposition to the bill establishing National Debt. He was followed by Mir. Athecto on the same side of the question, and by MT. Davis and Mir. Dawson on the opposite. Mir. Fillmore fol- lowed in support of the bill, and at the close of his remarks it was teken out of the Committee, and eventually passed-ayes l26. nays 93 Il has been amended as 10 limit it's duration to three years from January next, instead of eight years and to bear six per cent. interest," instead of five per cent.
