Editors Of Exchange:
Dear Sirs-Allow me to suggest the most eligible
site for an Opera House, Musical Hall, or Theatre
the city, and that is between Exeter and Lloyd
in Baltimore street.
As you very justly remarked in your article O.
the 10th inst. in regard to the "Viage Notions
of Baltimore, where for the last thirty or forty
years its principal thoroughfare has been obstruct
ed by market wagons, and its retail trade confined
within the narrow limits of three squares, namely
from Gay to Charles street, l am not astonished
to hear the often repeated expressions, such al
'you are too far down." or "you are too far up. ,
and as long those ideas are adhered to, 90 lone
will Baltimore be a ''Vilage'' in its "Notions"
Now in New York, Philadelphia and Boston, the
prime pal thoroughfare of either city is contin
uation of business from one extreme to the other
while here persons from the sPoint' come up te
see the "Eiephant," and others from the "Park'
and Franklin Square come down to see the ssBear.'
and promenade from Gay to Charles, and from
Charles to Gay street, and shop and chat, and
when tired go-home!
In this letter my object is simply to state thai
while the eastern section of the city has an advan
tageous site for such building as Manage,
Ford DESIRES it would have an indirect advantag,
in improving property that is comparativel,
valueless and therefore it becomes the interest O
every property owner from Gay street to Broad
way to favor the erection of such building b,
their aid. Respectfully, Deb.

brought, by the disclosures of the last few months
to see the weakness and to feel the sin of his former
trespasses, in the particular to which we have Just
alluded. We trust that he is not too wise to be
made wiser by an experience which has been sealed
with SO much blood. If he has read the report Of
the recent trial of the parties charged with the
murder of officer JoURDAN, we hope he has satisfied
himself, that not quite all the crime Of
that catastrophe rests on the heads of 'tthe
'infurated Irish" We commend to his pc
rusal the graphic description which was
given by witness, of the performances of one
Globe Cook" who was hot in the foray upon
Limerick, Eighth a pistol in each hand uheting
'em against each other as butcher ,could kniter'
We call his attention to the fact, subsequently
stated by the same witness, that "7obe Cook is
''now acatchnan in the Penitentiary." The APP
pontments in that useful institution, it is true are
not under the MAYORS control, but we ask him,
most respectfully-by Say of Observation-Disclosures
he thinks that the selection of such outlaws for
offices of public trust-the pensoning of GREGORY
BARRETT and ToBE Cook for such services as they
have rendered the communities an example
which ''the city government should continue to
sequence, that at the election in November 1857,
MARION CROPS, himself, was the successful candi-
date of the American party in the Fourteenth
Ward, for the office of Constable-that, at the same
election, ERASMUS LEVY was the choice of the
same party, for the same office, in the Tenth Ward
that the polls of the last named ward were held
within step of LEWIS drinking-shop, in Holiday
street-almost at the door of the MAYORS Office
the same drinking-shop, where CoRRE found the
pistol with which RIGDoN was put to death, and
which Capt. BRAsHEARs, of the police had given to
JOHN ENGLIsH-that, at the election referred TO-,
JOHN HINEsLY took the votes as Judge, and JOHN
ENGLISH guarded the polls rs policeman-both
under Mr.. SwANN's appointment, and before his
eyes-we think there is light that flashes vsibly,
along the hidden chain of causes, influences, and
complexities, which has bound this community so
long, TO destiny of violence and shame. Mr..
SWAMI, perhaps, may not see it now-but it
shocks the vision and the moral sense of other
men, and the responsibility Of all that it illustrates
is gravitating, slowly but surely, towards the
place where it will irrevocably rest.

The admission of the new State of Oregon, was
signalized, on Saturday evening, in Washington, by
| procession with music, which marched about the
city, giving rather promiscuous serenade. Gen.
JOSEPH LANE, the Senator elect from the new
State, first noticed; and after he had made a
| speech-succeeded by the Hon. Mr.. NICHOLS OF
Ohio, Senator GREEN of Missouri, MIR. ScoTr of Cali
fornia, Mr.. LEToHER, and others-the whole body
marched to the Presidents. After repeated calls
Mr.. BUCHANAN appeared at window, and said
that when the bill for the admission of the new
State came to him, he would not veto it. He con
graduated every body on the auspicious advent OF
another State into the glorious Confederacy-
praised Gen. LANE-said expansion was the policy
Of the country, towards alone feared and opposed
it, and called for yankee Doode"-which, saws
the Union, was admirably performed. The crowd
then marched to other windows, and heard more
speeches. Vice President BREcKENRIDGE declared
that the admission of new State was nothing Of
consequence among us; We got in about one year
and expected to continue the practice until we had
a whole hemisphere dotted with States, from
the Polar Seas TO the Tropics. Whereat, we pre-
sumo, Yankee Doodle was played again. 1t should
have been, at all events.

The steamer Hoses Taylor arrived at New York
on Friday, bringing the melancholy intelligence of
the death of Charles Ridgely Howard, of Baltimore.
The deceased had been for the last two years of his
life connected with the New York and Chagres line
of steamers, and had left this city but month
since, to take the command of q steamer on the
Pacific side, to run between Panama and San
Francisco. His friends-and they are many-will
deplore the loss Of a frank, generous and gallant
man. Those connected with the navy, who can
remember fifteen years gone by, know the reputa-
ton Of sCharley Howard" the dashing nidship-
man. Never had sailor warmer heart than his.
To ALL rich or poor, his was the spirit of unselfsh-

that place, of stopping at the treasurer's house,
came along, and as usual put up his team and re-
tired to bed In the night three men, disguised,
entered the house, and two of them seized the wo-
man and threatened to shoot her if she made any
noise. The pedder was aroused, came out with a
revolver fired and killed one of the robbers on the
stairs, when the other two instantly fled A light
was procured, and, upon examination, the dead
robber was found to be the town treasurer himself
There is quite an excitement in the neghborhood,
and strong efforts are being made to discover his
two accomplices.

A man as recently caught shooting tame squir-
res in the public square in New Haven, and some
scoundrel in Cincinnati has killed beautiful swan
recently imported by liberal gentleman of that
city to beautiiy public garden. Worst of all, the
bird was about to bring forth a brood of young.
The Philadelphia Ecening Journal says of this
piece of brutal rascality This is another instance
of the Vandal disposition of our populace. We are
perfect Goths in this country in propensity to
destroy the graceful and ornamental. Works of
art and of Nature, if placed within the reach of our
barbarans are ruthlessly marred slaughtered.
We cannot erect a monument or statue but it is
straightway scrawled over with autograph initials,
and obscene words. If there be railing or eillar,
or other carving of wood in public place, it
becomes cut up by the knives of the rabble visitors.
Nothing is safe, not the animals that grace our
parks. The boys, and often "children of a larger
growth" delight to torment and injure them,
throwing stones at them, chasing them, feeding
them with tobacco, or other poisonous or filthy
stuff, concealed in something they like, and playing
all sorts of cowardly and savage tricks upon him.
When shall we become really 'civilized and en-
lightened?'
