AMERICAN INSTITUTE.

Tie frst regular meeting Of the Institute since the
late Fair held last evening at their rooms, No.
$50 Bresdway-Dr. Rsr.E, the Vics-Presideat, oceu.
pyrg the chair. The attendance wss large. After
the usual reading of the minutes by the Secretary,
Judge hxrGs, nomo o. hundred gentlemen were ad
nittes a. members. The Hon. Luther X. Marsh
who delivered the address before the late Fair, and
Henry Grinnell, ESQ.,, were elected honorary mem
btn.
The GEAR stated that the business then rs. in or.
der was the report Of the Trustees Of the Institute in
latOn to the purchase Of the CRYSTAL Palace Ga be-
half OF the Trustees he remarked that the Committee
which wos some time since spp pointed to open nego-
tiations with the holders Of the Palace had entirely
failed in their undertaking 1t found that larger
price was demanded Than had been anticipsted-the
Committee being limited in their offer to the sum Of
100000 Ire interview between the Committee and
the Receiver John p. White, ESQ.,, took place prior TO
the close Of the Fair. As further attempt at
purchase the Trustees Of the Institute received power
to renew the negotiations. They accordingly held a
conference with the Receiver and other gentlemen
largely Interested in ths Palace proper y, asd learned
that mortgages amounting to $l25,00O were held
against it, of which Mr.. p. T. Barnum held inter-
est of $40, 900, aud Messrs Duncan, Sherman & Co.
represented go ooo SIPS 600 was therefore the low
est figure at which the Palace could be bought. In.
cluded in this property was Kiss Amazoo, originally
costing $4,000; cabinet of valuable minerals aud
natural curiosties, and the lease of the ground to
May, 1858. The trustees recommend the purchase of
the Palace at the above price, pro ded some $40 900
can be raised by voluntary subscrip lion-their re-
sources falling short something like that amount.
Meantime the proprietors of the Palace have given
the trustees refusal of the property until the let of
January next; thus sfording the Institute an
opportunity to make effort to raise the amount
required The chair further stated that it would be
necessary to procure from he Legislature the passage
Of law authorizing the city to give perpetual lease
Of the ground. With this view, the opposite party
had consented to grant thirty sixty days further
grace to enable the Institute to procure the passage
Of such enactment. For the purpose of facilitating
subscriptions, the Trustees submitted form of crcu
lar suitable to be addressed to the friends of the
Institute in this country and abroad.
The Trprees were directed TO continue negotiations
for the purchase Of the Palace property.
The Report of the Committee on Finance sho 70
that the gross receipts Of the late fair S2 OO0bs
ing larger sum than ever before realized by the H.
stfute from one fair. The of 900 remaining In
the hanss of the Committee was ordered to be paid
into the treasury.
Some other reports Of minor importance were read
and adopted, when the meeting adjourned.
