pearances we shall have the most corrupt and
villainous Common Council next year that we
ever bad. The worst men in the community:
men without intelligence or good standing;
the most worthless, ignorant and rapacious set
of fellows in the whole city, will be nominated
IN oil the districts; so that we may as we'll
make up our minds to see the taxes increased
from ten millions to fourteen or fifteen, by all
kinds of jobs and extravaganza. There is no

THANKSGIVING AT THE THEATREs.-The obser-

The theatres, concerts and shows Of all kinds
reaped rich harvest, as may be judged from
the following statement Of their receipts, which
are rather under than over estimated

This shows that while the people OF some
parts of the country are in mortal fear OF trea-
sonabie invasions aud servile Instructions,
and while the rabid abolitionists of New Eng
land and the West are endeavoring to excite
the North against the South, the people OF the
metropolis are attending quietly to their own
affairs, enjoying prosperous times, devoting
themselves strictly to business, and in proper
times amusing and enjoying themselves in the
most harmless and innocent way, Some Of the
provincial cities might fnd good example
from the quiet dignity and steady conserva-
tism which distinguish the masses OF the PEG.
pie in the metropolis.

CANDIDATES FOR THE CONGRESS- PRINTING
From all that we can learn, there will be
mighty and hungry swarm of party news
paper candidates for the printing Of the new
Congress. Here are, as we understand, few
of them
Cornelius Wendell, the head chiefs of the
Albany and Washington lobby gangs.
2. Banks, late Of Virginia, and Steadman, of
Ohio, the lobby firm who supplanted Wendell
for the late Congress printing, and then sold
out to him, and sold him in the bargain.
3. The Washington lobby firms of the Ma
tonol Inteligencer Globe, Constitution, National
Era, Republic and States.
4. The Philadelphia newspaper candidates,
including the Chevalier Forney Of the Press,
McMichael of the North american, and Flenni-
gin of the Ne,cs.
s. The fifth division will be made up from the
conservative opposition sectional compromise
newspapers Of the South, such as the Baltimore
Patriot, Richmond Wing and the Louisville
Journal
g. The sixth division will represent such en-
phatic Western republican papers as the Gin
cinnati Gazette, the Chicago Tribune and the
st. Louis Democrat.
Throw all these cliques and combinations to-
gether in the lobby at Washington, and it may
be readily imagined that they will have regu-
lar Donnybrook time Of it. Last, though not
least, it is probable that the Chevalier Webb
will have finger in the pie If it
should turn out that he has secured house
and provisions in Washington, free of charge,
for the session, upon some such grand lobby
idea as free wool" or that he is the agent of
some combination for a new bankrupt law, or
general banking law, or something Of that
Sort (s52,675 included,) he will have to be
taken into the firm of Weed and Wendell, so
that it shall read Weed, Webb and Wendell, or
the game of Thurlow will be spoiled. The
books are still open; and all that will come
may come into this grand approaching lobby
scramble for the enormous masses Of spoils
and plander comprehended in this Congress
printing.

TuE STEAMER rNprAS' COMPARATIVE STRENGTH
or Iron AND TIMBER BUn.T VESSELS From the
accounts received yesterday by telegraph, there
is reason to fear that the saclice OF life result
ing from The loss of the steamer Indian will
be much greater than was at first anticipated.
When the vessel struck there were one hundred
and thirty eight persons on board, thirty
eight of whom were passengers. Besides
the two boats that were stove and capsized,
we now learn that two more, with part OF the
passengers and crew, drifted out to sea, and
have not since been heard Of 1t Is to be hoped
that they have by this time been picked up, and
that we shall shortly have some tidings Of them.
1t may. however, be some weeks before their
safety or the full extent of the calamity is as
certained, for vessels bound outward would not
be likely to change their course for the pur-
pose OF landing them at their original destina-
ton.
The similarity of the circumstances under
which this steamer and the Royal Charter have
been lost within 80 short an interval sug-
gests q question az to the comparative safs1v
of iron and timber built vessels. Ths
Royal Charter and the Indian were both
constructed Of iron, and both went to pieces
almost Immediately after striking The Indian,
it seems, parted amidships, which proves the
small power Of resistance that she possessed
against longitudinal strain. This weakness
in iron ships seems to have been foreseen and
apprebended, If we may judge from the recent
introduction Of diagonal ribs. Whether these
two uDlucky vessels were constructed on this
principle we are unable to say; but should the
fact turn out to be 80, it will tend to the con-
clusion that means have not as yet been dis
covered TO render iron ships as secure against
accidents Of this kind as stout oak or teak
built vessels. We do not believe that a steamer
of the latter construction would, under the
same circumstances, have gone to pieces in
any thing like the same short space of time
that the Royal Charter and Indian have done
So rapidly was the former broken up that she
crushed the passengers between decks as they
were making their way out of the cabins,
whilst, as we have already stated, in half an
hour after striking the Indian parted clean in
two. In most disasters of the same kind
occurring to timber built vessels there is ord-
narily good deal of time left to the persons
on board to make their preparations for escape
In iron vessels, on the contrary, if we are to
Judge by these recent examples, the perils en-
couDtered are immediate, and leave no time
for the exercise of those faculties in which the
seaman places his reliance in moments of dan
ger Science will no doubt discover the
means of equalizng this difference in strength
between iron and timber built vessels; but
until it does SO, the preferences of most pru-

MORE FILIBUsTERING.

The Washington correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Inquirer says:
I stated, few weeks ago, that there was
secret association in existence in the United
States, having for its object the conquest of
Mexico; not to be annexed to the United
States, but to be governed by the race conquer
ing and getting possession Of its Government !;
that this secret combination had its signs, pass
words, and cabalistic letters, like other secret
societies.
"The information then had was vague and
indefinite; but the name, purpose, and the prin-
cipal actor or master-spirit, of this society, are
now made known. It is, THE knights of the
Golden Circle, George Buckley, President
American K. G.. c., knights of the Golden
Circle.) A meeting was lately called and held
at the White Sulphur Springs, Va, of this as
ISOLATION, which sundry Southern gentlemen
were invited to attend. This meeting, it is
stated, was attended by about one hundred men,
the doors being guarded by men in uniform !;
and it turns out that its object, as | stated,
was to Americanize and Africanize Mexico
that is to say, that Americans shall take Mex
leo, and establish Slavery there, and open the
slave trade. Buckley is represented to be
fre-eater, disunionist, and one of the many
thousand restless spirits who desire to live with
out labor, to be hero of some kind and ruler
by the grace of powder, and not by the voice
of the people, though protesting to be a Demo
crdt. So long as that class Of the American
people who have the most at stake in the coun-
try-the solid men, the business men, the in
telligent men, the moral upright men, and the
Christian men-will not take an active part in
giving character to, and controlling the Gov
eminent of the country, they may be assured
that just such restless, depraved, reckless, mis-
chiefmaking spirits, as well as demagogues of
all kinds, will step in and occupy positions
which should be occupied only by worthy, up
rirht men,
