New YoRK, May 4, 1855.
Bishop Hnghes.-This gentleman dies hard, and,
after saying In his letter yesterday that he had
done with Senator Brooks, comes out this morning
with card, calling upon the public to suspend its
opinion for ten days, when we may expect to find
that the Senator has been completely snnihilated,
| in the Bishops opinion. So far as this controversy
has been carried on, il Is rs plain as the sun at
MONDAY that Mr.. Brooks has established, beyond
doubt, that Bishop Hughes has made statements
which are far from the truth, and has furnished
documents to prove in the most satisfactory man.
ner, bis charges against the Bishop. Let US wait
patiently for ten days, when we shall see what we
shall see.
Mr.. Ticker, the Brooklyn editor, who was tried
sometime since for the murder of his child, and
quilted on the ground of insanity has been sent
TO the State unatc asylum at Utica and II Is said Is
rapidly improving under the medical attendance Of
the institution, and Is regular contributor TO the
Opal, monthly periodical edited by the inmates
| Of the asylum.
Oowhiding.---A little bit of a cowhiding affair
came of at the Metropolitan Hotel yesterday. Il
appears that Chas. s. Cooper, late lieutenant in
corps Of the New York volunteers, presented to
John Mears draft and asked to have 1t cashed
Mr.. Mears declined paying It, and used abusive
language to the lieutenant, when Mr. Cooper drew
forth cowhide and proceeded to give the said
Mears a fagellaton, and after INJECTING several
| blows across his face and head, was arrested by
the authorities OF the house, and held to answer
the charge Of assault and battery.
The NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. In the lower part of the
city are becoming somewhat excited in respect to
this lovely spot being appropriated for the recep
ton of emigrants on their arrival In this city. II
Is said that the commissioners Of emigration favor
the project. If such location should be decided
upon for the cmigrants then farewell to one of the
most beautiful promenades in the country; but IL
Is hardly possible.
Nep Seftlement.--An association Of Germans
has purchased tract 6f land about FIVE miles south
Of Jersey city, containing some l60 acres, for
which the association have paid 100000. 1t Is
| intended for German settlement, and buildings
are 10 be commenced Immediately.
| MISUNDERSTANDING Woodruff has issued an at
tachment against two or three Of the Witnesses in
the Matsel investigation case for their refusal to
answer. The attachment Is returnable on Tuesday
next. Alderman Briggs appears determined TO
put this matter through, and works with win.
Sick.-John ]. Mumford, one OF the deputy col
lertors Of this port Is very seriously III, and Il Is
feared by his friends that he is past recovery. The
physicians have prohibited any one but members
Of his family visiting his room. This Is the gem
tleman who procured copy Of President Jack
sons message surreptiousy and had II put In type
long before It's delivery TO Congress. He was at
that time proprietor Of the New York Standard.
