oIip NEW YORK OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

New YoRk, May 80, 1857,
The arrival Of the little band from Nicaragua in New
yot has produced great sensation. The dock OF the
,mer Illinois was crowded with the friends of the ex
iop who greeted the eomers with demonstrations Of
ooome But it would seem that the lbuster fever has
hated and no great effort will be made to revive the
,onouest OF Nicaragua at present
Our papers are by no backward in speaking of
bs manner in which the whole affair has been conduct
a and the opinion the whole is not favorable to the
,nduct of Gen. Walker
Great surprise has been expressed that the metro
,n police commission have done little since their
anzation They at the outset, made great boasts of
what they would do-they would imprison Matsell,
rst Mayor Wood and put all the old police in the
rmbs But still nothing has been done. Matseil is at
his old post and the city is well protected Mr.. Wood
controls the police. The men in the old commission are
seen in the old places on Broadway, at the corners
If the streets-on duty, and everywhere obeycd and
be war Of the new Albany power has fallen far short
Of the manifesto curiosity has been manifested to
know the cause of this apparent eowarlice.
The other day the passengers in of the city had
an onporunty to hear one of the commission speak
his mind The cars halted and detained for some
time One Of the new commission was in the cars He
WAS greatly excited He loud and vehement in his
remarks He did not notice that the had stopped.
He continued his vehement conversation and all on board
Ind an opportunity to hear chapter of the secret cham
her Of the iew commission in White street.
The commissioner red in the face and hotly excited,
said that the new commission had been oiled by the
arlly and craven conduct Of of the commission, He
ed him Colonel Bowen celebrated for being of the
original pipc-layers of New York The new commits
sion had intended to make such an impression as
would force the new law New York at all hazards
to arrest and commit Wood and all his adherents call
ont the military if it ncedful but Bowen had proved
the milstone He the drag to the cart His timid,
craven and vacating policy had kept the commission
hack and now it too late If men will talk loudly
and mady in the public tell the the
eli chamber in the streets when are aboutwe can
not help hearing and printing The deep Indignation Of
our people is expressed in various modes in the press
in public convocatons, and in the voluntary organza
ton of the military. These commissioners will not
venture in conflict with Mr. Wood but, with all their
boasngs will await the court Of appeals Not one dem
ocratic policeman has left the ranks of the mayor.
But come from what reason it may, the commits
soners have not yet dared to do thing that would
bring them into collision with the old party No property
has been aIcn though dcmanded-no station has
refused to make the daily report to the mayors Office
and though forbidden has been prescribed for
recognising both sources OF police power.
Messrs. Bowen McNamee have had verdict
dercd against them in hesupcior court for SANDER This
firm is famous 1t is the great abolition firm of
New York. One Of them is the main-stay of Ward
Beecher and the other of DR. Cheever Some time since
they were reported to say that they sold .ther goods
and not their principles They had young in
their employ whom they sent out to the West with
generous letter of recommendation, But the young
indicated that their principles too profitable to sell
He said that the French marks their gloves not
genuine and that those who bought the articles would
not get the genuine. For this the firm undertook to
put down the young man. and accused him of all that is
vile. He sued the firm for SANDER. The whole matter
of gloves marks, principles, &c. out, and the jury
gave verdict against the house for nearly 5000 and
almost all think, it is most righteous verdict, and
indicates why people had rather sell goods than
their principles, they thus make profit what
they sell and what they keep.
We now having most delightful weather The
is warm and the whole of moving population are
starting for the country The rich and fashionable
churches thinning out the audiences sparse and
strange faces taking the place of old and familiar
countcnances. MANHATTAN.
