Thus far our researches extendedu up broadway,
but still there were decorations which we did not
reach, but we think uo Inscriptions.
The street was almost one mass of mourning
costume for three miles Nil business was sus-
pended, and all the people Of the City seemed to
be there 10 see the procession. Every windo"
and balcony and porch was iull to overlooking

Genin, at No. PA, always, made a superior dis
play. Long stremners Of Grape, reaching from the
roof centered around bust Of Clay, enyeloDed in
Grape and surmounted by the eagle, also in grape.
The Museum showed great variety ofbanners
mainly national eOors, trimmed in black. During
the day it was densely thronged by persons to see
the procession.
The Astor House presented remarkable spec
tacle. The entire massive granite front was COW
ciCd with black drapery not spot Of white, yisi-
ble-the only relief Of the sOmbre shadow being
the half disclosed windows where the guests could
get stolen glimpses Of the streets.
The American Hotel was draped in black and
white.

In the side streets, Beekman, Fulton, Nassau,
Dew Cortland tvery general,) Greenwich, &C., we
saw some appropriate decorations. Many OF the
old friends of Clay, although far out of sight OF the
procession, shrouded their houses in mourning. In
Canal. ST., Chemb-rs-st., Chatham-st., and the

following inscriptions:

which we had not time to copy.
The above will give some idea Of the general
appearance Of the City near the route of march.
The shipping was appropriately decked with
hafmast flags and signals, and all ferry and other
boats plying on the rivers did the same hoaor
Some stages were properly dressed in mourning,

FISHING BouNTf Erc.The citizens of Gloucester Mass
engaged in the fishing business in their report that
since the passage of the law granting bounty
poyed IN the Cod Fisheries, different kinds of fishing had
grown up giving employment to more men, and
ing much more salt in the time than in the cod fish
ing alone that these different kinds of fishing so minpe
with each other that it is impossible to keep them separate
without very great sacrifice earnings In view of
these facts they suggest alteration the bounty laws
so as to embrace all kinds of hook fishing and to
require all vessels excepting those which visit the Grand
Bank to be employed at five months instead of four
eSi present committee instructed to forward the
facts to Congress- According to the present construction
of the laws, and the of the business scarcely a
vessel can obtain the allowance and hence movement

IMPORTANT DEeisoS-A decision of considerable i'm
portancc to steamboat managers passengers was re-
Gently rendered by the Court of Oyer and Termner at
Poughkeepsc. n. Y. gentleman by the name of Win
field. belonging to Poughkcepse, took passage at New
York on the steamboat Oregon buying through ticket
for Albany owing to the competition through ticket
could be bought for less price than way ticket When
the boat reached Poughkeepse, Winfield offered his
through ticket and attempted to go ashore but the Off
of the boat forcbly resisted him against his will to
Albany Winfield brought suit against the owners and
officers Of the boat for assault and false imprisonment
concndng that through ticket entitled the holder to
land wherever he pleased the way. The Court sus
tanned this position ruling that through ticket entitled
passenger to land Mt any place where the boat stopped
and that in fact. all the passengers had a right to
walk ashore at any place that passenger not paving
his passage when demanded not liable to be put on
shore Immediately but if the steamboat came to Poupb
keesie any other dock passenger who had paid his
passage had right to GO hore without any detention
from the employers of the boat and that in
fact the must collect the passage money before
starting and If not collected that time it was debt
and TO be collected other debts and that was false
imprisonment to detan any passenger from landing
Under this ruling the jury found verdict of $3.50 and
costs against the Captain, Clerk and Ticket Agent of the
Oregon.
