A Coon MovE.--We have seen a petition
to the Legislature, now circulating for sigma
lures, with the object of ameIiorating the condi-
ton OF persons discharged from the state
Prisons. 1t is proposed to adopt the system in
use in Switzerland, where portion OF the con-
vio,'s earnings during Imprisonment are given
him on his release, with view TO protect him
against temptation to crime and to enable him
to keep clear Of his former associates and live
as an honest man. This plan is also recommen.
ded by the Special Legislative Committee on
the Prisons, of whose report we yesterday pub.
lished the importan, parts. We commend tbs
subject to the consideration of all who consider
that Society Is bound to prevent as well as to
punish crime.

learn from an official copy of the Constitution
of the Ameriean Revolutionary Union for Europe,
which was finally organized al PHILADELPHIA on
the 3lst ult., that at the conclusion of the pro
ceedings Messrs. Fickler AID G0gg, the repre-
sentatives of the London agitation Union, an.
nounced the dissolution of that Society and the
complete adhesion of its members to the new
R'rolufiossFy Union. This is an important step
toward the concentration of parties so necessary
to the progress of the German Democratic
cause.
At the last session of the recent meeting in
Philadelphia, Mr. Gogg being questioned by one
OF the members, expressed his opinion that
among the German revoIutionisis Frederick
Hecker possesses the confidence of the people
In the highest degree. This was received with
loud marks Of satisfaction by those present.

New YORK, Sunday, Jan. II.
Steamers Arrired at Neu York-Diaaer to
the Builder Of the Yacht America-Mr.
Webster and tAe Historical Society, SC.
Two steamers have just arrived from Cha.
gres and San Juan, the Brother jonathan and
Daniel Webster. The most important news,
the reported examination into the conduct oil
the Captain of the British brig Express in
firing upon The Promelheus, has given much
satisfaction.
The Pacific sailed to-day for Liverpool, with
$780, 600 in gold.
amounted TO nearly four millions Of dollars, OF
$3,9S4,345.
1 mentioned the other day that dinner to
MIR. George Steers, the builder of the famous
yacht America, was in contemplation. The at
fair came of on Friday night, and was attended
by some four hundred gentlemen. The lead
ing ship-owners and ship builders OF the city
were present, among them Mr.. f. X. Collins,
MIR. George Law, Mr. Thos. 1ileston and MIR.
John Diinon-the latter presiding.
Hon. Daniel Webster has sgniied his inten-
ton to deliver the annual address before the
Historical Society Of this city, probably after
the middle of the present month.
The late President Of the Board OF Alder
men, Morgan Morgans, Esq, has had pre-
sentation Of plate, in testimony oil his services
as presiding officer of that body. His constit-
nents prepared the compliment, and it is well
deserved.
There were in port, yesterday morning, the
unusual number of five hundred and forty six
vessels, twenty seven Of which were steamers.
The new steamship Delaware made a trial
trip, day or two ago, TO Sandy Hook and
back she is to run on the outside passage
hence to Philadelphia.
The Forrest case has been continued, by an
order of the Court, until next Saturday. A
charming prospect for the newspapers.
Mr.. Charles Henry Hall, formerly an extern
sive shipping merchant, died at Harlem on
Thursday, in a fit Of apoplexy.
Nothing important has transpired.
