Six of the New York Aldermen have been in.
dicted for receiving brides to influence their of
fetal action. In one case, that of Aldermen Cop
per, the indictment has been quashed, and the
witness for the prosecution indicted for perjury,
he having in one affidavit sworn that he had brb-
ed Alderman Cooper and in another just fatty
he did not The others still under adjudication
In the Court of Oyer and Term'ner on Monday
three other indictments were presented. Two IN
dement's against Sydney II. Stuart, City Judge,
one for bribery, and the other for conspiracy TO
defeat the ends of justice. WIN. G. Elder po-
icemen, is indicted for conspiring with Judge
Stuart 10 defeat the ends Of justice. The char
ges made oct in the indictments. are accepting
brides in two specified cases for defeating the
ends ef justice.
Is not that delightful, says Southern contem-
temporary. What pure and honest local gov
eminent they must have in New York How
cheering and consolng it must be TO the honest
denizens of that city 40 reflect that only six OF
.heir Gonncilmen are arrested at one fell swoop.
on charge of Wholesale fraud, bribery and cor
rupton! Really we think 1t about time for the
Saints Of the Gotham press TO leave the South to
her destiny, and endeavor to enforce little re-
form at home. The business Of swindling * shlrk'
ing NAV not amount TO much when New York
merchant makes a fraudulent fixture, and pockets
a cool hundred thousand. when SCHUYLER
commits magnificent speoulations, and forges on
an extensive scale. All that is in the way of bu-
siness, and ali others save the bitten ones shake
their heads and exclaim ''olever fellows. sharp
boys, &C." But when it comes TO Aldermen
claiming brides for services rendered, and sell
ing their influence in the Councils for specific
sums, the thing has an ugly look about il. The
people of New York are notyet quite hardened
to such official delinquency this rs they wax
rather indignant. We in the South, to be sure
who are in the habit of calling things by their
name, regard such actions with avast deal more
sincere horror, than that affected 10y our pious
and church, going contemporaries at the mmor
atty of the South. We term it infamous, and
conclude that the ethics of New York must be
those Of the JACK SHEPHERD and DICK TuRpIN
school, if the city fathers are thus stepped in
roguery TO the very hips.

MI. Wise's Last .

The following is the substance of Mr.. Wise''
birthstone letter TO the Bos,onians The reader
will be apt to conclude from il that Mr.. Wise'f
nostril is still dating:
"Now gentlemen, desire 10 pay you due res
pect yet you compel me to be very plain with
you, and to say that your request. IN every
sense is insulting aud offensive to me- THAT

"Hho are you to assume thus such n urls
dicton over subject so delicate and already fx-
ed in its relations by "A solemn compact between

Another Book on Slavery.

The New York Times has pretty good au-
thority" for believing that 1.-THE Honorable Miss
Murray, 'the distinguished English lady who has
been travelling in the United States for some
monthsps past, is preparing book of observation
and criticism upon our people aud institutions;
and that she intends 10 pind,cafe The iast,tu-
tons Of Slavery from the alleged misrepresenta-
lions of Uncle Toms Cabin Unless we have
been entirely misinformed, says the Times, Mis-
Murray has come to the conelu SION as the re i.
suit of her personal observation, that the socio
institutions of the Southern States are decided,
in advance of those Of any other portion of ,bi
country that u higher degree of culture am,
refinement is TO be found there than elscwher,
in the Union - that slavery is blessing rattle
than curse to the negroes themselves, ard thu
the picture Of its erueties and atrocities. givei
by Mrs. Stowe IL her celebrated novel, are eth
er very gross exaggeratons, exceptions
as not at all to be taken into the account, whel
forming Judgment of the institution itself -
She will make this prominent feature in he
forthcoming book and designs, we understand
TO enter upon special refuiation Of the view
and representations of Mrs. Stowe"
The Times ndds: Miss Murrays book, an,
especially that part Of it which relates to thi
subject, will undoubtedly make sensation il
this country as well as in England. She is la
dy Of very decided Intellectual ability of great

What the Abolitionists say of Know
NofhingiRm

Tho National i3ra-the Abolition organ pub
lished at Washington--regards Know Nothing
ism in the free States an invincbe obstacle
to Fusionistn and Abolitionism, and calls it the
faithful ANY of slavery and the Souh. II says:
-,our readers see that f>now Nothingism is
operating just as predicted. Where it can
not rule it seeks to ruin. In States where it is
dominant, il seeks 10 subject Repubcanism TO
its use; whore il is not il arrays itself in bitter
opposition to it. In Indiana and some of the
Western States, it holds back Republicanism
from any efficient action. IN Ohio, Massa-
chusetts, and New York, where the Republi
cans have disentangled tkemeAves. il is seeking
to overthrow them, thus playing into the hands
of the Administration and the Slave Power, and
retarding the movement for unen in the free
States"
In a speech in New York q short time since,
Senator Wilson, OF Massachusetts,, the great mo-
gull of abolitionism said
saw last winter at Washington that an eff
fort would be made to make the American Par
.ty bow down in ahjeot submission to the Slave
Power, and made,up my mind, as member of
that organization, that if it unoerwenta Pro-Sla-
very transformation, would, if | had the pow
err, shiver it into thousand pieces. Tremendous
cheering. | came here resolved to do what !
could TO save The American party from being Il
Pre-Slavery organization. You will remember,
some Of you, that in New York, early in May,
l warned you of the effort that was TO be made
TO convert the American party into Slave or.
ganizaton, and SAID to the organization in all
cendor, that the Anti Slavery men of the eoun-
try ought to proclaim it, that whenever the Am
erican Party laid its hand upon the Anti-Savery
movement, that day it should begin to die. In
June last the American party went to Phladel-
phia. The.chefs of the Slave power came there
and asked the party to sanction the institution Of
Slavery in all its phases, from its introduction
into this country TO the Nebraska fraud. And
the delegation from New York stood by and sus-
tanned their demand. The American Party, gen
tlemen, received its death blow ut Philadelphia
from. the Bankers and Lyons of New York and
gentlemen, say tonight, and speak to every
man, that the first duty you your oountr,
is to repudiate this baif3ed and defeated aud dis
graeea faction in,the State of New York. Yo,
own it to yourself, say, to leave the organiza
ton and unite with the gathering hosts of tn
freemen of New York; and say to you, freemel
of New York it is your first duty to crush GU
politically from among you the Bankers and Ly
.ens and 'Ullmanns and the Hunker Pro SLAYER
Hindoos of the State Of New York"

on such subject the greatest consideration and
respect. Mrs. Stowe will undoubtedly find II ne
cessary to make some reply.-and we are. there
fore, likely to have brisk and exciting warfare
on this controyerted subject"
