KossuTH AND THE MATsEnLEs CoRREsPoN-
DENCE.-The New York Herald says We un-
derstand that a large number OF official letters
are ON file in the Navy and State Departments
and in private hands, containing great many
curious details concerning the sayings and doings
Of Kossuth at Marselles, and the origin and
character Of the difficulties which 1t is said
took place between him and the American agents
and oficers--an account of which was pub
lished in several Of the newspapers The Gov
ernment, it seems, conceals the character Of
these letters but its agents are letting il out in
some shape or other. We have no doubt that,
as soon as Congress meets, demand viii be
made for the production of all this correspon-
dence, and for an account Of all that transpired
during the voyage Of the Mississippi up and
down the Mediterranean, and at Marseilles and
elsewhere. There IS a great deal of mystifca-
tion on this subject somewhere. Either the
newspapers have been mystihed and humbug-
ged, or the government has. But even II II is
all true it does not amount to much.

states that an only son, sole heir to wealthy
old lady deceased without a win, invited all her
relatives to examine her papers, and finding
among them loose memoranda showing that she
had at some time contemplated making bequests
to several persons amounting to fifty thousand
dollars, has determined to pay over to them
that amount, which he might just as well have

CHAGREs.--It is stated that the difficulty be-
tween the American and native boatmen at
Chagres has been amicably settlcd--a regular
treaty Of peace had been signed on board of an
old schooner lying in the Chagres river, by
which both parties were guaranteed equal rights
and no favor, and Americans and natives were
now pursuing their business without interTup-
ton The 50 called boat club had been dis
banded and many Of the American boatmen
had left the place 1t was supposed that about
30 natives and 3 Americans were killed during
the late riot The American Consul, Mr. Glea-
son, had very narrow escape.

A Row AT THE GREAT MEETING IN PHILA-
DELPHIA.--The Pennsylvania Statesman, Demo
cratic anti buchanan Of yesterday, says:
GAS we expected, the meeting held on We'd
nesday evening for the avowed purpose Of
hastening the release of Smith 0'Brien and his
companions, but really for the purpose Of pro-
noting the fortunes of few decayed politi-
clans, terminated in a scene Of disgraceful dis
order and tumult. Morton McMichael, in the
course of surcharged remarks, undertook to be-
rate the Hon. RobertJ. Walker for the tenor Of
his address to Kossuth at Southampton. The
Democratic spectators on public sympathy as
in duty bound, became so exasperated, that af-
ter the formal adjournment of the meeting, a
regular Irish demagogue mounted tie stand,
and pitched into Mr.. McMichael with the most
intense indignation and virulence The success
sion of shouts, Misses, halloos, and violent
rushes towards the stand, which followed, and
were duly stopped by the stoppage of the gas,
would have satisfied 0'Brien-and Meagher, if
they had been present, of the utter insincerity
and emptiness of the formidable demonstration
in their favor. 1t is rumored to day that Mr..
Tyler, since his warm reception at his gratui.
tous recall of the meeting, has expressed his
determination of connecting himself with the
Native American party. Query viii they take
him ?"

The following appears p.s communication
in the Republic newspaper of this morning:
1t is understood that, as soon as the founda-
tions of the Capitol extension are completed,
the balance of the work is to be done by con-
tract. 1t may not be generally known that the
work thus far has been performed by the day
Suchs the fact; and it universally conceded
and, indeed, II has been the subject Of frequent
remark-that no Government work in Washing
ton was ever better done, nor did mechanics
and laborers ever perform more faithfully.
It is to be earnestly hoped that the subject
will receive the most careful attention before
a decision is had as to the future method of
prosecuting the work There is reason to
fear, from the experience that has been had
in the contract system, Especially in Con-
gress printing! that the Government will
be called on again and again to indemnify
alleged losses; while the work itself gives
ample evidence that no loss has been sustained.
SO far as the workmen are concerned, every
consideration Of justice and humanity is on the
side of the day labor plan. II is conceded that
SO far vorh vas neuer better done; and, if l am
correctly informed the experienced and highly
practical Commissioner of Public Buildings is
decidedly favorable to the day's-work system
Nobody will question that the President is sin
cerely desirous that the work shall be done upon
suCH SySlem as bHuil, HeAl 10 the interests OF
the Government confer the greatest benefit
upon those whose strong arms peck and rear
the massive pile; nor do those who truly un-
derstand the subject attribute any but the most
honest motives to those who recommend the
contract system. Let us have a full and fair
investigation and understanding of both sys-
tens, and choose that which will insure the
greatest fidelity to the Government and the
largest benefit to those who do the work j.

More of the Terrible Disaster Mt New
York. s46E 1

York.
New York, Nov. 81, 8p. m Thousands of
persons collected around the building to day
where the melancholy calamity took place yes
terday, by which so many unfortunate children
lost their lives. Officers were stationed about
the premises, in order to collect all the parts
possible to aid in the coroner's investigation
In the area into which the children fell, at
least cartload Of books, shoes, combs hats,
| shawls, and other articles of clothing were
found. The place was literally covered with
blood The clothing which belonged to the
children was taken to the ninth ward station
for recognition. Here the scene was heartrend-
ing: parents, brothers and sisters were seen
looking with fearful eyes, and were heard to
lament most piteously as they espied some gar
ment or little memento that belonged to their
relatives. Some were perfectly frantic with
grief
1t is now stated that one principal cause of
the immense loss Of life was the improper and
highly reprehensible course pursued by mum
Der of men, who forced themselves into the
building, and besought the children to fly for
their lives, telling them that the house was on
fire, and that the walls were about falling.
The coroner this morning empanneled jury,
and they proceeded to the scene of disaster, in
carriages, to view the dead bodies, after which
an adjournment took place until eleven o'clock
to morrow morning, when an investigation will
be gone into.
1t is stated that the railing on the stairway
was of so frail nature as to scarcely support
the weight Of man, much less the great pres
sure caused by the affrighted children.
The following deaths are additional to those
sent you yesterday Cert Van Buren,
Henry Cares, Miss Bogart, Mary Marsh, Albert
Lawrence, Thomas Ramsey, Catherine Coon,
James Ryer, Julia Herschell, Louisa Allen,
Fredercka Miller. Six more are reported dan
gerously wounded. Sixty-one are known to be
dead.
The police station-housc presents the most
sorrowful aspect and the upper part Of the city
wears universal gloom.

CONFLICTING JURISDICTION.

The New Orleans "Delta" says that Judge
SAMUEL J. GHoLsoN, of the United States District
Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, has
refused to sign an order issued from the United
States District Court for Louisiana, for the arrest
of Governor QuITMAN, on the indictment found
against him for his alleged participation in the
Cuban expedition. The matter, it seems, was
argued at length before Judge GHoLsoN, by H. J.
HARRIS, Esq, United States District Attorney,
assisted by other counsel the part Of the General
Government, and opposed, on behalf of the
Governor, by some Of the ablest Lawyers in the
State of Mississippi, on the ground that the appli-
cation was irregular and defective, and that no
power existed in the Federal Courts to make such
order. We have not seen copy of the opinion
of the Judge. Governor QuITMAN puts his refusal
to answer the indictment on the ground that it
would SO interfere with the performance of his
official duties as to suspend for time the Execu-
tive powers Of sovereign State, and promises to
appear and answer the charge as soon as his term
of Office shall expire. ....
