Proposed Rebellion in New York.

ait is reported here that it is the latent
intention Of those now engineering the
Seymour movement in the State and city
city Of New Y York, to project an outbreak
among the Democratic masses, either on
the day of election or on the day of the
draft-on the latter day, most probably.
The programme is, if Seymour be elected,
to inaugurate an insurrection against the
general Government, on the basis of de-
mand for the resembling of the Emancipa-
ton Proclamation, with the alternative
that Governor Seymour will recall all the
New York regiments if this demand be not
complied with, and that the State shall re-
fuse to pay her taxes.
"These parties, not knowing how far
their reasonable designs may involve the
pence of the State, are said to bo now in
conference with certain prominent West
Point officers not now in the service,
but who are or have been lately staying at
a New York hotel, and who profess them
selves willing to accept commissions in
this war of the State against the National
Government. 1t is said that one of the
great inducements held out by these con-
spirators to those whom they are seeking
to entrap into this movement has for its
object the immense deposit Of bullion now
in the vaults of the Sub Treasury for the
payment Of the interest on our coupons.

Probably few of our readers understand
the matter of the late arrests by Genera,
Wool in Baltimore, to which reference was
made by telegraph, and which have caused
such an excitement in that city. From
the Clipper we obtain the following as the
main circumstances of the case: On the
fourth Of last August at an immense mass
meeting held in that city, q committee of
six gentlemen Of loyalty and patriotism
was chosen to investigate the alleged dis
loyalty Of persons residing in that city
who are holding offices of trust and i'm
portanOe under Government and also of
those furnishing supplies for the army.
They met daily, and by advertisement
called for evidence touching these points
On the thirteenth day Of August, the COM
mittee having made up their report, went
to Washington, and laid it before the Pres
ident, who requested time to examine the
papers. On the 25th they again waited
upon the President who replied that he
had not had time to examine them. In the
meantime, during the battles near Manas-
sas, certain engineers and fremen on the
Washington and Alexandria Railroad took
occasion, at the approach Of the rebels
towards Alexandria, to run their engines
and trains into each other; ard cars, en-
gines, Sc, were piled up, a dead loss to the
Railroad Company and the Government.
Now, amongst the evidence under oath laid
before the President by the committee on
the thirteenth day of August, were several
af6davits that these very engineers and
hreuen had said they would cause this
very destruction to their trains on the
first opportunity they could get.
On the tenth Of October, the committee
went again to Washington, with a request
that if the President had not had time to
examine the papers, he would refer them
to General Morris, commander at Fort Nc
Henry, at Baltimore The President de-
clined doing this, but at the request Of the
committee returned the report to them.
They then requested meeting Of the Vice
Presidents Of the mass meeting held in
August, to be held at 8 P. II. of October 28th,
to hear report of what the committee had
done. While this meeting was in progress,
those composing it were arrested by order
Of General Wool. The fact was communi-
Gated to the President together with a pro-
test from citizens of the State, and the
men were released by order of the Presi-
dent.

Golden wedding.

The Newark (O.) North American has
the following item;
at is not often that a wedding pair are
permitted to celebrate the fftieth anniver-
sary Of their wedding. Golden weddings,
as such anniversaries are sometimes call
ed, are rather rare occasions. But the
Reverend David Lewis of this city, mas
just celebrated the siztisth anniversary of
hiswedding day. He was married in the
State of New York, sixty years ago, on
the Sd day of October; and a good
methodist friend, residing at Lith-
opolis, Fairfield county, invited him
and his wife, over eighty years of
ags to ride over and celebrate the occasion
at his house. The invitation was accent
ed, and DR.. Miner, who gave him the invi-
tation, called in large circle Of mutual
friends, that the proper festival character
of the occasion might be maintained.
Among the guests were several persons of
about the same age as Mr.. and Mrs.
Lewis-one, at least, who was 80 and an
other crowding on the same figure. Other
things were also in keeping. The table
was spread with cloth spun and woven,
VIC believe, by Mrs. Millers mother; the
coffee pot was an heirloom to the family,
and as tall and slender as our New
England mothers, the tea pot had
also been handed down for half
dozen generations; the spoons had also
belonged to some grandmother and
were carefully preserved, though SO small
and light as to show that silver shackles
were not very plenty in "Olden time;n the
cups were of blue china, such as graoed
the table of Washington; and when Mrs.
Miner took her place at the board she ap-
peared in the bridal dress which was in
the height of fashion sixty years ago. The
sleeves were long, the waist just under her
arms, and hoops we're nowhere. The old
were gay over these memorials of the past,
and the young ones caught the spirit, only
more so. Of course there was a revival
of "sixty years ago." and old times were
lived over again. There were remarks
too, snd prayer, and q looking into the glo-
rious future as well as looking back into
the dim past. In short, it was an occasion
to be remembered %

Beautiful State q A4eair. in the Coincide

rate Capitol
[Frcm the Richmond Examiner, Oct 80, 1862 I
The police government Of this city seems,
Of late, to have entirely gone TO pieces
The open display Of rowdyism and villainy
in daylight, and the common nocturnal
I incidents of garroting and highway rob
berry have already obtained for Richmond
a reputation not second to any in urban
annals. Rowdies, gamblers and prosti-
! tutes seem to have made Of this city their
peculiar presence, and every night is hid
eous with their disorders and crimes. A
citizen cannot walk the streets at night
| without encOuntering perils to his life or
purse; thieves and murderers skulk on
the street corners; and recent instances
have occurred of the daring feats of the
garroters and thugs in falling upon their
prey in the most frequented thorough
fares, even at the early hour Of the eevening.
1t appears, however, that there are some
circumstances stranger than incidents of
highway robbery and pocket-picking in
Richmond, which suggest an extraordina-
ry and alarming ineTtness in the police,
and threaten the worst consequences. An
account of an exploit Of burglars was
given some days ago among the local in this
paper, from which it appears they robbed
large warehouse in one of the most pub
lie places in this city, ascending to the
main part of the building, letting down
and rolling out a number of barrels of
-four, and then hauling them away. Such
feat Of bold and vigorous house-breaking
Is unparalleled, we believe, and almost un-
ineligible. The -four could only have
been driven away in several drays or
carts, and the idea that these could be
driven to large warehouse on Cary street,
and after being laden there with their
plunder, could 60 rumbling on through the
city without being Overhauled or chal-
lenged by the police, or attracting their
attention, is almost, if not quite, incred- |
ible. Yet we are told that such is the |
fact, that the police were not alarmed, and |
that the first discovery that robbery had |
been committed was when the -four was /
missed the next morning.
Such successes of robbery in this city |
are truly alarming. All property must
be insecure here if such feats can be per-
formed with safety, as that related above.
We shall have the thieves of Richmond
not satisfied with the precsrious profits Of
and the small scale of adven-
lures ordinary to foot-pads, aspiring to
larger prey, cutting warehouses Of wheat
and tobacco and perhaps next trying
their hands at heavy ordnance.

The GaribaIdi Riots.

The recent disgraceful riots in London
and Birkenhead furnished curious COM
ment on the allegations we sometimes
hear, that the Church of Rome in these lat
ter days has become liberalized, and incul-
Gates principles of peace, liberation and
charity, as strongly as any other denomi-
nation. Her ardent votaries, who were
stirred up in Hyde Park and at Birken-
head, 10 an exhibition of brutal vio-
lence at the very mention of a
man whose only fame is that of
being a distinguished soldier of freedom,
showed that they had received very diff
ferent lessons from their church. In Lon
don they assembled, armed with bludgeons
and knives, to break up meeting of per-
sons who wished to express their admira-
ton of Garibaldis efforts, and to send
words of sympathy to him in his prison
cell. At Birkenhead, fired with similar
hatred to the names of the champion of
Italian freedom, they attacked a debate
ing society meeting, demolished the
windows of a church, and committed sun
dry other acts of violence. Such proceed
ings on the part of a class of people than
whom the Church of Rome does not count
more devoted or more thorough going ad-
herents, strongly illustrate the decided
tendency of that church against liberalism.
On some occasions in the past when it was
her own people who had TO be relieved
from irksome restrictions and privations
the Catholic Church in England and Ire
land has been associated with the Liberal
cause. But having got the English Gov
ernment to concede the fullest liberty to
Catholics, she has now nothing to gain by
wearing the Liberal cloak, and of late
years has appeared almost invariably in
her true colors, as the opponent of free
dom.
There are doubtless very many Roman
Catholics who strongly sympathize with
liberal principles, and who have given
them an honest and valuable support But
the church sways the great mass of her
adherents, those over whom she has the
most entire influence, in the opposite di-
rection, and, though they may be found for
time working with the liberal party,
whenever the supposed interests of their
church are in any way touched, or her
mandates are brought into play, they are
no longer to be relied upon. These Carl
baldi riots will not be altogether unpro-
ductiye Of good, if they serve to prevent
this anti-Liberal tendency Of the Church of
Rome from being lost sight of.
