NEw FERRY TO STATEN IsLASD.-The opposition
TO the old Law ferry to the North Shsre of Staten
Island has at length organized into what is hoped
will prove a successful and permanent enterprise.
number OF the citizens have combined and have pur-
chased the fast and beautiful steamer Flora, which
commenced yesterday to make regular trips from Port
Richmond Factcryylle, and New-Brghton to her
dock at the foot of Courtandt in this city, She
is to make several trips day each way, and charges
exactly one half the fare of the old ferry. No part
of the country in the vicinity of New-fork is more
desirable residence than the North Shore OF Staten
Island 1t is remarkable for its perfect salubrity, is
unsurpassed for the beauty of its scenery, and beyond
the limited space occupied by two or three villages, is
quiet rural neighborhood inhabited by intelligent
and educated people. sufficient ferry would bring it
M near in point Of time to the business part of New
York as the upper part of the city is TO the lower by
omnibus and rail- while the journey to and fro is far
preferable to those who love fresh air and a brief
escape from the turmoil of city life. The great
drawback TO its growth hitherto has been
the want of ferry accommodation While on
the Quarantine side there have BEEN for large por
ion of the year, hourly, and sometimes half-hourly
boats ut the fair rate of sixpence trip, the north
side boats have run in Summer only seven times
day. and in Winter five only, and at double the rate of
the other ferry, or II cents. The large number of
houses let this Spring all along the shore, from
Port Richmond to New-Brighton, many of which still
remain empty is attributed to this difficulty of commu
nic alton with NewYork. This nfequency Of access,
and the nefciency OF the old and WORKOUT boats,
giving rise a constant apprehension of some lament
able accident, has created this movement for new
ferry, the success OF which those interested hope to
secure by making it jont-stock company, with the
shares at SO low price that everybody the Island
can become stockholder and all thus have interest
in It's support. Public meetings to be held in rela
ton to the subject at NewBrghton Fsctoryyie, and
Port Richmond on the evenings of the I'D, 23d, and
oath inst, respectively.

ROBBERY on THE HIGH SEAs.-Merchants o. this
CITY who have been in the habit Of sending goods 70
Mobile, have frequently received letters from their
customers in that city stating that packages shipped
by the sloop D. S. Williams often fell short. Recently
the second mate, Patrick Mockler, was arrested on
suspicion of stealing from the soop, but finally Sns-
picon also fell upon the captain, d. 5. Williams and
his brother, D. f. Williams. On the arrival OF the
sloop at this port, day or two since, Detectives
Slowey and King went board Of her, aud there
found a barrel full of miscellaneous goods winch
should have been left at Mobile. They then went to
Forked River, near Banegat, where the Captain
lived and searched his house, but without finding
ANYTHING Their search led them into the garden,
where they dug up large trunk filed with all sorts OF
goods The two brothers were then arrested, and, N
comrany with the trunk brought to this city. Here
the goods were identified by various merchants as
having been stolen from packages sent by them to Mo-
BILE The prisoners were then locked up N await an
investigation of the matter. They will be tried in the
United States Court on the complaint made against
them by the victimized merchants. Subsequently the
same officers discovered another trunk fun Of rnisce-
aneous goods buried in a sand-bank on Staten Island
The original marks still on them, and they were
fully identified by the owners. 1t is now supposed
that the goods had been absacted from the packages
before the sloop left this port. An examination viii
