THE INDIA RUBBER CONTROVERSIES We pub
lished 10 the columns Of this paper, short time
since, long article giving what we then supposed
IL TO be-a true and correc; history OF the vast i'm
provements that have been made in the manufac-
ture Of India rubber within the asl twelve four
teen years. In publishing that article we had not
the slightest wish or intention TO damage the claims
Of any pateniees or inventors; nor, on the other
hand, TO encourage any one in their systematic IN
Engagements on the nights of others. Since that
article was published we have received several
Communications, TO he effect that some Of our state
me ns were incorrect-thatwe did injustice to some
prominent petentees for discoveries in the process Of
manufacturing India rubber, by attrbutng their dis
eoveres 10 others, and, 10 other cases, withholding
the names OF the real patentees II the article in
question was of such tenor we repeat, we did not
pubsh it for the purpose Of damaging the rights Of
paientees, or with any intention OF doing injustice
to any one Of them. We have received 80 many
communications on the subject, that IL we were to
publish one we should have TO publish all We
have not space enough to do that. But we are sick
Of the whole Of this India rubber controversy Our
courts Of Justice are open to those who think hem.
selves aaqreved, and suits between patentees and
others have been on the taps for number Of years
pact Why are not those suits brought to trial and
judgment Let the public have the facts and thus
end the controversy.

CELEBRATION OF THE ANNIVERSARY OF WASHING.
TONS BIRTHDAY.-We give in another column a
copy of the programme of the celebration which
is to take place in this city TO morrow, on the
occasion of the anniversary of the birthday of
Gen. Washington. According to the arrangements
that have been made, there is little doubt but that
the ceremony will be very imposing and very
creditable to the city of New York.
Now that the ice has been broken, we hope thai
future anniversaries Of the birthday of the Father
of his Country will be duly and regularly celebra-
ted in this city. We have not in our metro
polls, 10 our shame be il tod, monument
worthy of that great man, but We hatter our
selves that our citizens possess strong a
reverence for bis memory. and as deep an
appreciation of bis devotion TO his country, as is
entertained by any other city or any o her part of
the country. The w nty. eoond of February
should always be a holiday in the United States.
i! should be cele brated as such TO as great de-
gree as the Fourth OF July. Let it, therefore, be
decided, that hereafter shall celebrate in each
year, il comes round, the twenty-secont OF
February. Let US make il day of eocing to-
morrow especially. 1t was the parting advice of
the great American patriot, contained Ia his fare.
we'll address TO the American people, that saved
tie constitution and the republic, when on a recent
occasion both were assaed by band of ruthless
fanatics. When all Yves almost lost, Clay, Web
ster, Cass, Foote, Dickinson, and other patriots,
following the example of the immortal Washing
ton, threw themselves n he breach and saved the
country. Let, therefore, the anniversary of the
birthday Of Washington hereafter be land. mark
in The history of this city and of the country and
let US celebrate it with bonres and Nominations
a. we do the Fouth Of July, the natal day of the
American republic.
We would suggest TO the public, the proprieiy Of
suspendnq business during the procession tina. will
traverse the city tomorrow. Several Of the banks
and insurance companies have given notice thai,
they will not transact business al all on that day.
We hope that all our public institutions will DO
likewise, and that there will be general suspsn.
sion Of business during the ceremonies.

DOU BILE SH E E T.
Arrival OF the Cambria j..

The British steamship Cambria, Captain Shan
non, arrived yesterday afternoon from Cork, Ire
land, whence she sailed on the 4th inst. She
brings the Cargo oil the Atlantic. The c. was
very heavily laden. Ii is stated in the Cork Err
swimmer that the Can't ria was chartered for f3 900,
70 bring out the cargo of the Atlantic, while the
freight list of the latter steamer amounted 70
Ga, 200, leaving the impression that the owners of
the A. gained 81 200. Such is not the fact. The
Liverpool consignees of the Atlantic, in order not
70 detain her goods, they had right to do tlll
she should be repaired, Immediately chartered the
Cambria, giving her owners the whole of the At
lantic's freight, and in addition to that bonus of
$4,000. This was done to give the goods TO the
consignces in the United States at the earliest mo-
ment. Thus, instead of gain of 91,200, the
owners OF the Atlantic have lost her entIre freight
and f3, coo besides; which is total loss of $751;
go in money, but gain OF 800, 900 10 reputation
for enterprise and energy This is the way to do
business, and line OF steamships in such hands
must 20 ahead.

PosTAeE Reform. We regret to say thai. &C
cording to present appearances, there is some
doubt Of the Postage Reform bill passing the Sc
nate. They are inclined to adopt the suggestions
contained in the Postmaster Generals report, de.
livered at the commencement Of the present ses-
sion Of Congress, and are in favor Of a ihree asd
i've cent rate Of postage. This conflicts 90 much
with the House bill, that we fear there will be no
eform turing this seesson

nlSwitzerland, arranging his affairs for great de-
monstration in behalf of his country In Rome,
under the very walls Of the Vatican, his hand
writes the "Mene, meme, tekel upharsin" of
warning, by many unheeded, but terribly siguifi-
cant. Should he once meet the French army Of
occupation he will re-write the story of their
entrance into Italy with the poin, OF his sword,
and re-awaken throughout Italy the slumbering
spirits who pant for the hour tsst shall release
them from Austrian letters. That any enc know.
the point at which he will commence his work
we decidedly doubt for Mazuni is one who
keeps his own counsel; but whenever the hour
arrives for the struggle, his name alone will make
thousands of hearts leap into action, and the
result will be with Providence. The army
of liberation will be composed, we anticipate, Of
no common materials and should Austria dare
TO enter Switzerland, most disastrous result
will hang upon the movement That soil il con.
secrated to liberty, and an entrance upon it by
an arbitrary power will awake the sympathies,
and, it may well be believed, the action, ofthou-
sands throughout the civilized world.
With respect to the preparation of Italy for q
revolution, there seems to be no question Any
one coAversant with the spirit of her people, well
knows the heart that ia hidden under the silent
tongue, and which will beat rapturously at the
very first sound proclaiming to the world that the
rivets falling from the letters of Austria The
French army have forced their way against the
breasts of liberated people, and have held them
till their limbs were bound again; but we mistake
the temper and purposes of the patriots of Italy,

great the sacrifice, to reenslave them, should the
Italian tn color once more float beneath the blue
