A correspondent writes in reproof Of what he
considers the bigotry and unfairDess Of The Neu.
York OJserrer in assailDg Gift Book sales, &c.
We cannot see the subject in the light which it
wears to our correspondent. On the contrary,
having resd The Observers article with some care
we must say that concur heartily in its main
propositions. These "Gift" enterprises are all
wrong, unsound, perniciOus. If he who has books
or any thing else to sell shall fit to give cup of
coffee sandwich, jack.knife, gimlet or any
other definite thing, to whomsOever shall buy q
dollars worth of his wares, We might question the
taste of his prefer, but could no otherwise object
to it. But to advertise books other property for
SALE with the bait of prize Oipnknown character
and value to be awarded to each purchaser what
is this but to initiate and maintain system which
is essentially gambling You say that you give
every purchaser the worth of his money apart from
the prize; but you know that he don't want the
book, or whatever il may be, enough to buy il of
YOU without extra inducement, or you would not
tempt him with prize in addition. No: the prize
is intended to lure men to buy who otherwise would
not-in other words, it is temptation to gambling
1t is attempt TO evade the eternal law Of 40
much for so much-t is an appeal from Equity to
Chance. We do not like to be always debating
what may or may not be adyertsed-we make no
pretensiOns to especial fastidiousness in the prem
ises-but We wish the District Attorney would say
whether he does or does not regard these Gift
Enterprises as nfringements Of the laws nhibiting
Lotteries. If he does. We must of course decline
to advertise them thereafter.

Capt Durham of the American bark Adriatic is
recaptured. Such is the announcement made by
the last arrival from Europe. This case is one
likely to grow into some public Importance. Cap
tain Durham was master of the Adriatic
when collision occurred at sea between that
vessel and the French steamship Lyonnais of
Nantucket Shoals. The steamer went down
with her cargo and a large number Of passengers
The Adristic was comparatively unframed,
and kept on her way to her port of des.
tinaton in Massachusetts, Bay. 1t would seem
that Capt. Durham, never dreaming 81 legal liab-
ity, subsequently sailed for the French port Of
Marseilles. On his arrival there, suit for dam
ages was commenced against him and his owners,
and his vessel was seized and detained until trial
could take place before the French Courts on the
claim of the owners of the Lyonnais. The case
was first decided in his favor, but an appeal to a
higher Court was taken by the owners of the Lyon
nais, when this decision was reversed, on the
ground. as we lean, that at the time of the coils
ion the Adriatic had no lights set, while the steamer
was well provided in that respect, having lights
which not only showed her presence but indicated
the course she was steering. The Court held that
for this omission the captain of the Adriasic was
guilty Of neglect and careessness, and was there
fore responsible for alb damages growing out OF
such neglect.
The truth is that the chances of collision at sea
are very many and the reasons and excuses for col
hsions are scarcely fewer than the chances. Be-
SIDES, the testimony Of sailors in regard to them is
always OF the least Trustworthy character. In
cases OF collision is no uncommon thing for all on
board OF one vessel to testify one way, and all on
board Of the other to testify in another and directly
opposite way In making out case of Liability il
is usually necessary to reject one set of the wit
nesses. In this case it would seem that the Court
which gave the final decision, as wac not I'm natural
took the French side Of tho testimony. 1t appears
tia. the disaster to the Lyonnais occurred By tn.

Our State has laws which exact certain mea-
sure of outward respect for that day of the week
which is regarded by most Christians as the Sab
bath or day of sacred rest. Quite spart from all
considerations Of religious Obligation we hold that
every person who cherishes decent regard for the
tights and feelings of others will 90 spend this day
ss not to mar its conservation and enjoyment as
Sabbath by others. Whether he goes to church or
stays at home is his own affair, with which no
one else has right to NEEDLE; but if he were to
open dance-house next door to a church, and
annoy the worshipers therein by noise and revelry
be would do very unjust and ungentlemsnly act
for which the fact that he had no faith in the Divine
ordination of the Sabbath, would afford no excuse
whatever.
We make these remarks, because we find in GER
tain journals-the Sunday and the German Press
especially-vituperatve attacks on Mayor Tiemann
because of his attempts to enforce-not Puritanic
observance of the Sabbath by any means, as has
been most unustly asserted-but such observance
as the laws of our State explicitly require.
Messrs. cayilers why do you not ash the Legs
lature to repeal the acts which you censure the
Mayor for enforcing If these laws be obsolete,
as you assert, they should be repealed; but masis
trate knows no subsisting laws as obsolete. What.
ever stands unrepealed on the statute-book he is
bound to enforce, if only that whatever is really
obsolete shall be pointed out and repealed If you
don't like the laws of the land blame the Legisla-
ture that refuses to repeal, not the magistrate who
feels bound to enforce them.
The sober fact is, that Sunday bowling, Sunday
adding Sunday uproar, reyelry or vociferation of
any kind is wong, not only as being contrary to
law, but as annoying and disturbing q far greater
number than it gratifes. Let those who want
them be supplied with Sunday papers, but let not
the quiet of the Sabbath be broken by crying them.
So in other respects. We would have no police
breaking into houses CD mere suspicion that games
and dancing were going on within; but no just con-
sderate person will so abuse his liberty on the Sab
bath as to disturb with noise the worship or the
medtatiOns of others. Letus all try to live and let
liye;" We shall be the wiser and happier for it. He
who would so dance, sing as to disturb his neigh
bors prayers is persecutor without the excuse OF
bigotly. At all events, never decry a magistrate
for fidelity to the laws.

equally distinguished Border Rufian for colleague
and which with the help Of State officers also TO D.
selected by him. msy prolong the tyranny ao'
usurpaton under which Kansas has groaned during
three years past for as many years to come
To the fraudulent twattle about the power OF
the people Of Kansas to remodel their State Con
sttution at pleasure, this is the obvious reply The
people of Kansas, having had the misfortune 10
have Territorial Legislature forced upon them at
the first Territorial election by Border Rufian In
ysders from Missouri they have been unable from
that day to this to throw of that yoke What bet
ter success can they expect to have in throwing oH
the yoke of an intrusive State Government forced
upon them BY Congress, and upheld in power by
Mr. Buchanan and the Army OF the United States
During three years past the popular msjority IN
Kansas has proved politically powerless as against
usurped authority acknowledged by the AdmInstra-
ton and backed up by United States troops. What
reason is there to expect that they could act any
more effecusly in the three years to come against
similar usurpation and violence7 Undoubtedly, 1t
ia this view of the case which makes the slave
holders so zealcus for the Lecomptsn Constitution.
Did they believe what they say about the facility with
which il can be altered they surely never would run
the risks which they do in attempting to cram 1t
down the throats of Kansas and the North. Even II
amendment of the Constitution were as easy and
certain as il would be difficult and doubtful. as
against sn INSCRIPTIONS minority in possession o.
the machinery of government, and sustained
against the detestation of the people by standing
army, why try an experiment so dscredtabe on
our part Why force this detested Constitution
down the throats of the people of Kansas, with no
other excuse than this, that if it makes them sick,
they have nothing to do but to spew it up again
Should this method of treatment be persisted in,
some of the operators might as well look out.
Men deadly sick do not stand upon ceremony, and
this nauseOus dose forced down the Threats of the
people of Kansas may come back to their own dis
grace and discontinue.

The constitution of the Kansas Committee of

The constitution Of the Kansas Committee Of In
vestigatior, as it comes from the hand of Mr.
Speaker Orr affords new proof, if any were needed,
that the Administration continues desperately bent
upon riding rough-shod over the people of Kansas.
The placing on this Committee, contrary TO all
parliamentary usage, OF q majority opposed to the
investigation, and who no doubt will do their bes
to sthe and defeat it, is perfectly on par with the
treatment which Kansas has received from first to
last Nr. Orr has but followed in the footsteps OF
President Pierce, Sheriff Jones, Mr.. Buchanan,
Chief Justice Lecompte, and other distinguished
participatOrs in the Border. Ruffian violence
and frauds of which Kansas has been the
scene. The injustice done to the people Of
Kansas in this appointment is just the thing
to be expected. As Kansas has had 9 sham Legs
lature, a sham Convention, and any number of shAm
and fraudulent elections it might be expected a. q
matter of course, that, 80 far as any supporter Of
the Administration in this business 10 concerned.
any investigation made into these proceedings
should be sham and fraudulent ALEC. The point at
which DIR. Buchanan. Mr.. Speaker Orr, aud the
msjcrty Of The Seuate are aiming is to give 10 Cal.

,ece;ved. The msjority Of the Committee consider
4 iuexpe5ent to grant the contestants prayer for
Committee to take testimony, since the authorities
Of Baltimore are too deeply implicated in the frauds
charged to extend security To witr esses; while the
minority propose al examination by the Committee
on Elections. Mr.. Hoard of New York asked leave
to offer resolution for the appointment Of Com
mittee TO inquire whether there had been any at
tempts on the part Of the Executive to influence

Burns of Ohio and extracts bearing on the general
subject, from Washington letters in the Richmond
pspers. Mr.. Burns denied the charges concerning
himself. Mr. Warren Of Arkansas wss sure that
DO gentleman on his (the Democratic) side OF the
House could be Influenced by brides Of any kind.
After heated discussion the House voted that Mr..

it adjourned.

very grave and very foolish wrong was perpe-
trsted last evening by some person or persons who
seem to have control over the lessee of the Academy
of Music and his agent. An attempt had already
been made-doubtless impelled from the same
quarter-tO repudiste the contract whereby the
Academy had been leased for last night to Mr.
George b. Butler for meeting to hear Secretary
Stanton in exposition of the affairs of Kansas. That
attempt was fairly met and defeated. Those who
were authorized to act for the stockholders in the
premises decided that the house should be opened,
warmed and lighted in accordance with the con-
tract. The newspapers were fully warranted in
giving assurances that the opposition had been
given up. and that the meeting would surely be
held. So by z o'clock the people began to gather
aad swarm around the edifce-only to find it closed
They continued TO gather and wait in the cold until
nearly O'Clock, when it was announced that The
house ,cOuid not be opened 1t seems that Mr..
Robert l.. Cutting, claiming to be authorized by an
Executive Committee, or some sort of Committee,
on behalf Of the stockholders, had at the last mo-
ment forbidden that the Academy should be
opened Cor the meeting Hence, after few re-
marks from Mr.. Stanton, the meeting quietly and
peacefully dissolved, and large portion of it's men,
bers headed by band of music, escorted Mr.. ). to
hs lodgings at the New-York Hotel, where many
Of them we're introduced to or renewed their ac-
quaintance with him. No one felt that the Anti
Lec0mpton cause had lost any thing by this foolish
and unmanly act Of its opponents but it was uni.
versaly resolved that Mr. Stanton should be heard
in our City at an early dsy-heard, too, by an as.
semblage Of many thousands. We trust the evening
will be that Of next Tuesday, and expect that the
stockholders Of the Academy will override in its
behalf the " fantastic tricks" of some who has
sbused their authority. II this expectation does
them more than ju,tice, the next best hall will be
secured, whichever that may be.
Mr. Stanton speaks this evening in the Assembly
Chamber at Albany. The People will be there to
hear him.

AS an invitation to the chorus to 'put in" like
bulls of Bashsn this may have answered the pur-
pose; and so would three swift waves of the con-
ductor's baton But when Mr.. Oxenford calls the
bride "the daughter of heroes" We arc puzzled
to know what he means. None Of her Royal
Highness's immediate ancestors have been remark
able for herosn. George !. liked bad oysters.
George III. liked fat women. George LII. liked
mutton. What was the peculiar weakness of
II. X. H. grandfather We do not remember but
We have never heard him classed among heroes.
The Prince COnsort is Field Marshal but has
never entered the CORY field. When in time the
Prussian poets sing, may some good genius save
them from such poetastical platitudes
We do not object however, to the minuteness
of these reports. John Bull pays the bills and he
has right to know bow the money is spent. He
likes dearly to read of royal spendors upon which
he may not gaze. And now, having disposed Of
his eldest daughter, We suppose he is Illuminating
upon the expense of marrying Miss Alice and her
sisters.
