Terus Question IL, the assembly,
| DEAR SIR
Il seems that the son Of the Bishop has "pro.
ceeded" against you for publishing the statement
of the Bishop. Is this not very much like the aci
of man cutting his own throat? In the Herald,
the statement Of the Rt. Rev. Prelate will spread
Itself to the utermost parts of the earth, will be
read by everybody, and be seen by thousands,
| who will never have an opportunity to read the
| other side of the question as contained IN the vo
| luminous book OF thes-Appletons'. II Will be .
wise thing for the Bishops son to drop all pro
ceedlngs' against the Herald, for this supposed
| violation OF copyright. Instead of harboring anN
anger he ought to be grateful for the favor 70 his
| father and family. Tne trial al the Bishop, iron
the press of Appleton y Co, was received her
night u any qun.y' lhIousn md me pamerev

qnlry. la the windows of the book stores. W
| see placards, "the Bishops Trial" Now we hav'
| the statement OF the Bishop IN the Herald, as al
oh.et 10 this mass OF evidence, and the. opinion
of several members Of the House Of Bishops
Thus We are enabled TO compare, examne;, auf
conclude upon facts Without tne Herald. W.
should have had only one side OF the question
and that making directly against the Bishop. Ineit
are three that prefer reading the rich and tA
lravagant details OF the evidence, raher Inan tnt
sorrows 1t is therefore arprehended that gr-a
| nefit, instead Of injury, has been the result o.
your judgment and good feeling.
| In casting my eyes around see in the hands o.
i
ments, but the Bishops trial. Strange indeed, tina
| so much curiosity and interest should be excited
by such book 1t is human nature however; Sen
| ators and women are not exempt from the usus
! tralltes OF humanity. II would be Interesting I
| have the power OF Asmodeus just at the presen
| time, in order to discover how many LADIES' ar
even at this moment intent upon the pefusal OF IN
| Bishops trial. This book Will create taste 10
slight readng;" it s precisely such book as tn
| progress of society demanded What use has oee'
made of the eight hundred dollars paid by Apple
ton u Co. for the manuscript! Surely this eur
should be given TO the Bishop, for had ne not bee
made the victim, thousands all over the land woul'
have been deprived of some hours OF exciting ant
pleasant reaulng.
After all the opposition to Mr.. Seymour, ol
| Oneida, the Speaker Of the House, ne fills tn
| place we'll No one finds fault with his manner Q
| conducting his business in the House Ia Com
mittee of the Whole House he frequently calls MI
Grain, Of Herkimer, to the chair, thereby eviden

he considered by every body as the strong man
Mr. Lee, of Erie, has much to say on every sub
| iect presented tc the House but he is not equs
| in any way TO Mr.. Young. Mr.. Boss, from Mon
roe, is the Crockett Of the Assembly. He speak
often, and with evident effect upon the rsibles
| the members. He contends that all movements .
The opposition cannot ''affect our rights hooter
Bloss is great man. after fashion. II is said b
can preach an orthodox sermon quite as creditabh
ss he can make political or statesmanike speech
Versatility is said to be characteristic OF Bloss
| He ought to go to Congress. This place is alto
gether too circumscribed for his soaring intelecl
II you look at the Legislative reports, Bloss will b
/ shown up as genius and man Of parts.
Of the democrats, Mr.. t. r. Lee, of Westches
ter, may be considered, in the words OF the tiou
i dealers, from stair to middliug." Mr. Lee, it WI
be remembered, was President of the Board of A.
/ sstant Aldermen some two or three years ago. II
IS considered here as somewhat favorable TO tn
extreme droit OF the party, Or the bsrn-burnlns

/ In the Senate, to-day, a warm and somewhf
personal discussion took place upon various prop
sltlons submitted by Senator Porter, to cut dow
in various ways, the salaries and perqasltes OF t'i
| Canal Commissioners. II seems that, IN thes
hard times, two thousand dollars, clerk hire AM
L
pay for gentlemen, who, in the most favorabl'
view of the case, incumbents, almost, OF sint'
cure Offices. Such seems TO be the opinion
Senator Porter, who is thought TO be The leader
| The extreme droit or the Barn burners, IN tn
| Senate. II Is doubtful whether any thing will com
| from this discussion, having a tendency to bench
/ the people In order 10 defeat any substantis
| good that might, by any possibility, be deriyet
from the consideration OF the subject In goo
faith. Senators introduced all sorts OF propositions
amendments and substitutes. One proposed To re

| OF State. Another Introduced proposition to r.
duce all salaries according to fixed proportion
They cannot touch the salary OF the Governor =
