PUBLIC MEETINGS.
DEDICATION OF THE SIXTH-Av. DUTCH
REFORMED CHURCH.

This edifce, situated in Sxth.av., opposite Amity-
ST., and but recently completed, was deiicsed yes
terday. In the morning the Rev. JOSEPH MCKEE,
Psstor of the Church, and the Rev. DIR. MATTHEWS,
performed appropriate religious services. In the
afternoon despite the untoward state of the weather,
a goodly number OF persons assembled TO listen to the
Rev. THEODORE l.. CUTLER. After an anthem from
the choir the Rev. Mr.. MCKEE opened the service
with PRAYER. Mr.. CUYLER then addressed the con-
gregaiiOn On Christian Activity and Energy. He
selected his text from Nehemiah, iv o.
hull, the WALL and all the wall Joined together
the half hereof for the people had mind work"
From this passage Mr. CUTLER preached an elo-
quent sermon, in which he demonstrated that the
prosperity of church consisted in the activity of the
members thereof. He referred 10 what had already
been done by the people who had mind TO york "
in the numerous fields Of missionary enterprise and
then he drew glowing picture of what might yet be
achieved, if protesting Christians would but pursue
the path of duty with the zeal as they followed
after pleasure. With the sum spent in one month in
the City of NewYork i'll furnishing supertuous uxu-
ries 10 the outer man. missionaries might be sent 10
every cline, and the church of God relieved from the
necessity Of begging for aid from door to door, HE
warned his bearers that prosperity not 10 be eI-
pecttd from the spasmodic revvals which too fire.
quen;ly were followed BY long intervals Of spiritual
ueron, but from earnest, practical and persistent
efort-by iberalliy Of pure as well Of principle.
The services were concluded with an anthem from
the choir and a benediction by the pastor. In the
evening other religious services were performed.

QUEBEC, Tuesday, Oct. "A, 1854.
The Government will move for call Of the House,
10 take place on the 9TH November-the object being
10 ask frem the House some definite action on the
Seat of Government question. The question Is mott
be made a Government measure, although, strictly
speaking il is one of prerogative, the Crown having
the right of calling Parliament and holding the Court
wherever it pleases. The contest will be between the
advocates of fixed Capital and those of the present
system of holding Parliament every alternate four
years in Quebec and Toronto. There is astrong feel
ing against the continuance of the alternate system
but il may be overbaanced by the difficulty of agree
ing upon any particular place as the fixed Capital 1t
is understood that the Government may make this a
ministerial question before it is got through with. If
the House should declare in favor Of the principle OF
fixed Capital the Government will then be very likely
TO 90 for Quebec. The ch snces are think in favor
Of continuing the present arrangement.
The Quebec and Richmond Railway would have
been opened before now if the completion of the
Chaudfere tubular bridge had not been delayed by
the caprces of the workmen. The making of tubular
bridges is business in Canada and there are no
mechanics who work at the rveting except about
eehty-fve who have been imported for the purpose,
and who work only occasionally and drink the re-
mainder Of the time. The progress of the work on
other sections of the Grand Trunk is considerable.
The section between Brockville and Montreal has 30
per cent. graded and the iron and ties have all been
placed ready for laying All the bridges on that sec.
ton are completed nearly except the large tubu
lar bridge at St. AIMS over the Ottawa which 500
feet long longer the famous Britannia bridge Of
the thirty five piers Of this bridge thirywo are al
ready constructed. The are to run over the tubes
Of this bridge but they to through the tubes
of the Victoria bridge at Montreal This section would
be ready TO be opened by spring if the bridge over
the Ottawa could be completed; bat as this cannot
be done, the opening will be delayed till summer
Between Toronto and Whitby the road is in similar
state of iorwardness and is expected TO be opened az
the same time. The piers for The iron tubular bridges

EXPLOSION OF AN INFE RNAL MACHINE
AT EARLE'S HOTEL
SEVERAL PERSONS INJURED.

Great excitement was occasioned between ooe and
two O'Clock on Saturday afternoon, in the neighbor-
hood Of the Park, by very loud explosion which
took place at Earle's Hotel, in Park-row, shaking
several buildings ringing the signal beds In the of5co
of the Chief of Police, and irjurng several persons
who at the time were in the hotel II appears that
an elderly gentleman had asked boy in attendance
at the hotel for bis baggage, and with the latter went
behind the desk 10 getit chen the boy in looking for
il handled the rest Of the luggage rather rough
ly, snd among other articles q brown va
lice, which instantly exploded with a noise
like thunder. Mr.. Powers, the book-keepeY, who
was standing by, had bis hair and whiskers burned
and the skirt of is coat torn. A Mr.. r. Dowd who
was talking to Mr.. Powers, was badly burned abou.
the face Another gentleman lifted from hs feet
and had his clothes much torn. The old gentleman
above referred to and several others were slightly
hurt One man who sitting upon settee in front
of the house thrown into the middle OF the street.
The boy who vas overhauling the baggage was Sc.
verely injured, and taken TO the NewYork Hospital.
Mr.. Earle, the proprietor was struck in the face
by a splinter torn Off the dining-room door,
which was forced from its hinges. The Chief
of Police, Captain Brennan, and others, we're SOON
on the spot, and after the place was cleared, pro-
contents. They found double barrelled pistol with
one barrel screwed of, and other things, which
when put together, formed a torpedo of dangerous
character. twelve and half pound powder keg
and q enc pound canister were also found. Toe
coDtrvance for exploding the machine was ad-
mirabe. When the valise was held by both handles
il would net explode but when held by one only, tho
interior work was set in motion, and the explosion

guDsnitb, for reconstruction. The building which
was old, was much shaken, and many Of the ceilings
were badly cracked Several windows were broken,
and the columns shattered The damage is estimated
at about 80 900. No person about the hotel seems to
know how the valise got here, and no one has
claimed it. Dir. Earle is not conscious of having al,
enemy, and cannot account for the introduction into
his hotel Of so dangerous instrument. Iii sup
posed that it was sent there in expectation Of some
persons calling for it, and that the explosion was pre-
mature.

Total yellow FEVER
The above table has been prepared with great
care, and is correct.
1t is very difficult to arrive at any very satisfactory
conclusion as to the number Of of yellow fever
which have been under treatment in the hospitals and
private practice, but on consulting number Of ply
sicans az to the proportion of deaths to the number
of cases we can safely put down the number of cases
at not less than thirteen thousand eigh hundred
should remark that in the table of deaths given above,
all the burias which were made without certificate
of a physician have been investigated, and all who
died Of fever have been recorded.
There were only ls9 cases of fever in the hospital
this morning, and there are not now ever 700 under
treatment in the city.
Letters received to-day by merchants from the
country all report the fever the decline in the
various places where it has prevailed and there is
prospect of good times.

THE LIQUOR QUESTION AT NEWOR-
LEANS-DEATHS BY FEVER.

NEw.ORLEAys, Thursday, Oct. 10, 1854.
Ten Ltwis, our Mayor, has issued his proclamation
for an election to be held the 9th of November for
the purpose of sscertanng the sense OF the voters
upon the subject of granting or withholding licenses
for the sale of liquor. Voters in favor Of grog shops
are 10 vote Grant Lcense;" those opposed will
vote " UIthhold License" In the First District Of
our city, where the northern and western reside
there will be large majority in favor Of Temperance
and there is good prospect that in the Fourth Dis
trict the Americans will have good vote; but in the
Second and Third Districts there will be large vote
in favor of grog shops. The Creole population do
not like to see progress of any kind, and they will
vote down the Temperance party The best evidence
that we require Maine Liquor Law is the statement
made editOriaHy in Tie True Delta, that we have,
on an average, one murder in erery eigM hours One
thousand and ninety.ive murders year in city OF
one hun ired thousand inhabitants is certainly very
large per centage.
The health of the city is much improved, and al
though we have had frost yet the epidemic Is de-
creasng. Our absent citizens return here by the
10th Of November with perfect safety and as every
northern man will vote against grog-shops, we want
them all here on election day.
The epidemic of this year year has been the severest
that has ever visited the cty-ast year excepted
and has been very fatal One OF the Medical Facul-
ty ia now preparing history of the pestence, and
has kindly favored with the following statement of

a paper or act in any case. The Executive
considers that there is a vacancy and has filled
