main correct and understandable; but the bill,
as we have seen it, is loosely drawn, and might
easily be evaded. The fourth section is pecu-
liarly ambiguous: the first portion Of it deprives
the Common Council Of all judicial power, and
the second leaves with them the functions of a
police magistrate decidedly the most danger
GUS power that could be entrusted to them
but we presume that the committee to whom
the act is referred will SO alter it as to make it
consistent and benefcially operative.
Thus the reform movement has auspiciously
commenced and, if it be not taken advantage
of to forward special objects, or warped SO as to
subserve political designs, but be carried on in
wide, liberal and comprehensive sense. we
venture to predict that its effects will be great,

ANOTHER Mission FROM EURoPE.--One OF our
telegraphic dispatches, received on Saturday,
from Washington, stated that Mr.. Pulzsky. one
of Kossuth's aids, had reached that city, to
place the government in possession of important
information relative to the threatened Rus
sian aggression on Turkey. 1t will be recollect-
ed that it was mentioned recently in the Lon
don .Ners, that Kossuth intended to visit the
United States shortly after the Inauguration Of
Gen. Pierce, under the belief that the democratic
party would favor his Intervention schemes.
1t is very likely that the visit of Mr.. Pulzsky
to Washington, as the special agent Of Kossuth,
is to ascertain the feelings of the new govern
ment on the Kossuth doctrine. We rather sus-
pect that the Hungarian gentleman will gain
very little by his trip to the capital

PRESIDENT PIERCEs INAUGURAL.--Our readers
will doubtless feel a curiosity to know how the
inaugural address, which has SO auspiciously
marked the first day Of Franklin Pierce's tenure
of the high Office of President Of the United
States, has been received throughout the coun-
try and particularly by the organs of the party
which opposed his elevation to that position.
To crafty such desire, and to show the cordial,
and almost unanimous. manifestation of favor
with which that document has been received,
we give our readers, this morning, extracts
from the principal wing papers, as far as re-
ceived. which have commented upon it. Every
where laudation is freely bestowed upon it, as
bold clear, concise, and unmistakeable pro-
gramme Of that policy which the country and
the world may expect to see pursued by the ad-
ministration Of which General Pierce is at the
head. 1t is recognized as faithful expositor
and true foreshadower Of policy which will
elevate the character Of the nation. and cause
the republic of the United States to be univer-
sally honored and respected.
We had almost said that the sentiment of ad-
miration was universal; bot we would have
d Httlc cIIeu LII saying 81. We Wouiu husS
overlooked the existence of the abolitionist sec-
ton of the wing party in this city. From that
alone is heard the dismal croak of disapproba-
ton and complaint against this truly American
document, and happily that is quarter from
which any commentator would have sounded
suspicious and ominous. Of the wing press OF
this city, the only journal which has expressed
itself displeased with the inaugural, is that
organ which represents par excellence the abo-
litionist principle in this country.
But apart from this-and we can well afford
to overlook eccentricity in such quarter-the
universal voice of the country has proclaimed
unbounded qualification at the important docu-
ment with which President Pierce has greeted
his countrymen. Its influence will be felt.
throughout the world. and wherever it is read
there the heart enjoying OF yearning for freedom
will feel a new impulse and nobler aspirations
And more than all, we are firmly impressed
with the conviction that the mind which con-
ceived it is not of such mould as would keep
the word of promise to the ear and break it to
the hope"
