his people from the responsibility Of his position"
Read the sketch Of the debate by all means.
The despatch from our Albany correspondent
makes curious disclosuresre to the squan-
dering Of the school lands. We notice that many
bills Of considerable importance have OF late been
introduced in the Legislature, but there they stick,
members being apparently more intent on drawing
them up and presenting them, than acting upon
them afterwards. The Senate yesterday instructed
its Committee on Commerce to visit our hArbor
forthwith, in order that law may be enacted pre-.
venting the construction of any more piers or
whaves along the East river till the Commissioners
have decided on the water line. See our special
despatch and the regular report for the details Of the
proceedings in both houses.
resolution denouncing John Mitchell in the most
violent and abusive language, the chief topic of
discussion in the New England Anti slavery Society
yesterday.
We publish some very interesting information
from Erie this morning. The United States Mar
sha is said to have received instructions from the
Attorney General 10 proceed with the work OF re-
pairing the railroad track, and II he is again inter
fered with by the rioters TO forward word to Wash
ington, when, it is understood, he will receive
Inducements in the shape of United States troops.
The mails Of the Niagara were delivered in this
city nom Boston at an early hour yesterday morn
ibE. The important points of the news had previ-
ously reached us by telegraph from Halifax and Bos-
ton, and we're published in our paper. We give this
morning however, some interesting letters and ex.
tracts showing the progress of the Rasso Turkish
ard the position of the continental cabinets with
reference to il.
On reference 70 our commercial reports it will be
seen that breadstuff5 were again in brisk demand
yesterday, some eighteen thousand barrels OF -four
having changed hands at prices ranging from ST.
20 50 lS4. A large amount of wheat, corn and
other descriptions of grain was also disposed OF at
high figures. But while breadstuffs are thus ami
mated, there appears literally nothing doing al

The SAN FRANCISCO REMxF FuND IN BosroN.--
The praiseworthy liberalty Of the merchants
OF Boston has swelled this fund to upwards Of
nine thousand dollars, and the committee who
have it in charge. in consequence Of its having
become much larger than they at first eontem-
plated-or, in other words the generous mer-
chants Of Boston having displayed more liber-
atty than the committee had given them
credit for-resolved to call meeting, which was
to have been held yesterday morning, to con-
slider whether portion OF the fund should not
go to the Humane Society Of Massachusetts,,
for the purpose of rewarding some other res-
cuer of sbipwrecked mariners. We look upon
this as decidedly wrong. 1t was stated at the
first meeting of the merchants and others who
were invited to contribute to this fund, that it
was for the purpose Of rewarding the COM
manders of the ships Three Bells and Antarctic,
and the bark Kilby, for their gallant conduct
in rescuing the survivors Of the Inflated San
Francisco and with this direct understanding
the subscriptions were made, and the money
generously and unstintingly paid into the fund
Now, what will these same donors say, and
what incentive will they have to respond to the
call of any future case where gallaRtry is to be
rewarded, when they find that portion Of
their subscriptions is to be diverted from the
object for which their money was given, and ap-
propristed to swell the funds of an institution
which. however praiseworthy its objects may
be, has no more claim upon the fund in ques-
ton than lying in-hospital or apublc library
| We hope to hear that the meeting unanimously
| aud indignantly frowned down the proposition,
| and that the money will be appropriated to it's
| legitimate purposes--to reward the courage
and gallantry of Capt. Creighton, Capt. Low,
and Capt. Stouffer.
ANOTHER CAIL.-The whole city is clamorous
to hear John Van Buren, and Captain Rynders
| on the proposed repeal of the Missouri Com
| promise. They have shared the spoils with the
present administration, and dipped their fingers
in the sayory mess of official patronage. Arc
| they going to desert their friends at the first
| sign ola storm? Is this their fidelity to Marcy?
Rumor imputes strange designs to Prince John.
Can he be going to speak at the Tabernaclee
What is he doing?
That voice that once in Tamnsuy Hall
The soul of Office she'd;
Is now as mute in Tammanys walls
As if that soul were fed.
Can any one tell us the cause Of the sudden
extinction of voice with which John Van Buren,
and Captain Rynders have been afflicted?

FLoGGING IN SCHooLs-In another portion Of
this paper will be found letter from Louis
vile, KY, giving full account of the unfortu-
nate rencontre between Matt. F. Ward and the
schoolmaster Butler, which terminated in the
death OF the latter 1t appears that Butler had
brutality fogged brother of Mr. Ward, and
the latter generally most amiable and gentle
young man-roused to fury by the news, went
to the schoolbouse to demand an explanation
when scufle ensued, and Butler was shot. 1t
is now for the courts to decide upon the merits.
of the case, and to pronounce between Ward
and the State, To us the calamity seems sug-
gestive of one practical lesson. How long shall
we retain the barbarous practice of Jogging in
schools? In France 1t was abolished long since
In England it is only kept up in those musty
old institutions like Elton, where the very name
Of reform throws the professors into commissions
In Germany there are schools where L is kept
up, together with middle.age philosophy, and
other relics Of times that were. EVERYWHERE,
as civilization, practical common sense, and en-
lghtenment penetrate the birch ard the rod
disappear, and moral suasion takes their place
Is it not too bad thss we should figure among
those nations which adhere to the barbarous
customs Who cannot understand the feeling
Of fury with which a father or an elder brother
hears Of schoolmaster brutally maltreatlng a
delicate boy who looks to him for protection?
The blood may boil then and death may follow;
b;t the real criminal is the practice Of logging.
