The MEETING IN THE PARK on Tuesday was a
reduced to Captain Rynders and bis big gun
the former as their chief, the latter as their
mouthpece-and II would be well If they never
had any other The best speech of the meeting
by far was Rynders', who l. really a practical
man, with q straight, keen eye for the Custom
House and the Narshals Office, and keeps very
clear Of bewildering distractions about slavery
and other foolish questions Rynders by the
way. begs TO state that he Is not acquainted with
Thomas Hyer; the public have been in error on
this point.
The next speaker, Mr.. Brady, the lawyer, made
a fairish republican speech in favor Of Fremont
Some Of the points were pretty well taken espe-
caly the raps at Fillmore, for wanting. like
Samson, to destroy the party and himself to-
Vether out Of spite. The poor old democrats did
not know what to make Of this queer speech at
first. but after a time they made up their minds
that all must be right somehow, and 20 went on
applauding as before.

but Harlequin was not himself His allusion to
Fremont not being good enough equestrian to
ride two horses together was fair. Wac it memo

have said enough and too much Of the affair when

ANOTHER GREAT ENGLISH SwINpLE-To the
list of fraudulent bankruptcies in London, occur
ring within short period--such as those Of Paul
Shahan q Co., and Sadlier-is added the name of
Joseph Windle Cole, who has failed for an enor-
nous amount and ruineu good many people,
One of the most usual securities among class
Of English merchants are warehouse warrants
which are in fact official certificates that goods
are in the Customs, Of such or such dutiable
value. The person who lends money on these
easily possesses himself Of the property, and has
title against the world But suppose the goods
are not there: Somebody is swlndled. 1t APP
pears that this Cole forged warrants to the
amount of more than million and half of dol
lars, which were palmed upon the house Of Owe
rend, Quincy 4 Co., and other parties have also
suffered greatly in similar way.
One Of the modes by which inquiry was met
by Cole, when a party was DESTROYS of seeing the
merchandise which the warrant represented, was
to send them to his own wharfnger-who was an
agent in the swindle-and he would take them I'M
blushingly to some warehouse near by, and point
out the property-this, too, when it belonged to
others.
Two noticeable consequences of these frauds
are now the topic Of the London press. The one
is, the necessity Of there being such an office
created by statute, as public prosecutor; for at
present all these swndlers must be followed up at
the expense Of the victims. Messrs Laing and
Campbell, who are heavy sufferers by Cole, are
pursuing him to a conviction, but at an
expense thus far Of four thousand dol
lars. Both France and the United States
are in many respects far in advance of
the English in their jurisprudence. Our
District Attorney and the French Procureur
General answer to the official who is now sought
to be created. The other is the deep disgrace
which is obscuring the honor of English mercan-
tile life by these frequent frauds.
Indeed, fortunes are no longer sought to be ac-
quired by the exercise of industry, patience and
economy, either in England or America. Weare
all on the high pressure principle. The more at
mosphere We have pressing on our safety valves
the faster We 60 till at length an explosion takes
place and ruin overtakes us, and all on board
either 60 to the bottom or are left wadding with
mangled limbs, crawling up out Of the bitches
where they are blown.

lutely tried to stir up war feeling. This was
all done in ignorance Of the real facts, and to
suit the government of Lord Palmerston. The
moment the real facts Of the case were known,
the London journals spoke of them as the United
States press had done all along, and the difficult
ty was settled at once Any rejecting person
will easily satisfy himself that if Colonel Ere
mont's plan were adopted and all diplomacy
were conducted publicly, every despatch pub
lished in the papers when it was sent out, and
every public department accessible to the public,
there could be no possibility of misunderstood
ings or quarrels with foreign countries, and the
business of our own would be conducted in an
honest manner. The suggestion is equally
creditable to Colonel Fremont's judgment and to
his boldness.

GEN. WALKER's CoEDITIoN.-The N. u.
Delta of the 18th inst. contains letter, da-
ted San Juan, June 4th, which represents
Walkers "army" as in most piti(ul condi-
ton. The following is an extract.
"sickness prevails to frightful extent,
in the worst forms ofyelow fever and chol-
era; numbers as many as can, are making
their way down to this place, broken down
in health, moneyess, and in most wretch
ed condition, desirous Of getting forwarded
to the United States. The applications for
relief and assistance made by Walkers men
to the American Consul at this place, are
many. 1t is sad TO see some OF the first lew
brave and staunch hearts, who were the
foremost to migrate to this quarter to aIt

xuSt taS WAS Predicted.

The Convention Of Scctionalists at Phil
adp)phia has closed its deliberations. Its
candidates are in the field. Two weeks ago
we predicted that not one of their eminent
men would be nominated nor any one OF
their long cherished principles Incorporated
into their platform. The records ofthe Con-
vcntion have fully justified our prediction
They were afraid to declare in favor of re-
pcaling the Fugitive Slave Law, the res tor
a,ion of the Missouri Compromise, or any
other of those sentiments which for years
mast have constituted their battle-cry.-
They were afraid to nominate any OF helE
tried leaders, Seward, Sumner, Chase. Banks
and Giddings had to stand aside, and man
who has never done anything or dared to &c
ANYTHING, who has neither principle or ex
per;encc to recommend him is taken up q:
the leader of the Black Republican hosts
Had they nominated Seward, they would q
least have been consistent with themselves
and secured the respect Of honest anti-sla
very men, but now they have neither til
prospect of victory or self approval to con
sole them.
