I Cm'7:cs17ondence'qf the Gazette.
' ‘NEW YORK, April 24, 1846.
DEAR Sm :—Brooklyn has done rather more
than her sister cityof New York, the past week,
in entering to the public appetite for excitement.
It seems that the laborers employed by the At-
lantic Dock Company, struck for higher wages
aboutn month ago. The Company did not accede
their demands, and_ after waiting a whole month
with praiseworthy patience,but in va_ii1 for the la-
borers to return to their employment, they hired
a body of Germans in their place. The Irish
were very indignant at this invasion of their
rights and armed themselves to drive off these
Germans who were willing to earn bread by the
sweat of their brows.~. . The Germans were de-
feated in the-first encourt.c'r and the Irish re-
mained masters of the field. Tliercupon two
or three military companies were called out and
the Germans again commenced work under
their protection. The Irish were at length per-
suaded by their priests to desist from their mad
and foolish attempts to resist the laws, and peace
is now restored to the “Island City." The war
was' quite as honorable and bloodless as that
waged by Dorr against the Government of
Rhode Island.
Brooklyn is in the main :1 very peaceable and
quiet City. Its inhabitants belong to what may
be called the uiiddlo class. They are plaiiu,.'-so-‘
ber, intelligent. and i'oonc_'..'-inai.'iiig ciii7.ons.——§
There is also :i l;iz'ge ll1Pl1li’)c1'()f Ncxv Eugl:-ind
men there, and they add inizcii to the lioaltiiy
moral tone of the place. I doubt whether there '
is ii. city of its size iii the Union where there is
to be found less vice or crime, and where :1
more gezicrops support is given to Christian and
charitable obi.-\.t..~. It already contains more
than ibriy Cl131l'cil8-5 and the iiuinbcr is con-
stantly izicreasing. Its quiet. and ret'.:~o::ic:it'1
afford a happy rclicfto business lll(;'ll from the,
noise and bustle of New York city.
.lV:’icn Long Island becoincsa State, Brooklyn
will doubtless be its Capital. Of course you
have heard that attempts were making to bring
about such a result. And why not? Af':.crilic
admission of Texas into the Union. Congress
cannot refuse to make Long Island one of the
Sovereign States. Slavery has stolen a march
on Freedom, and Long Island is needed to keep
up the balance of power. 3
Some of the descendants of the Puritans have in
been building a Church in Brooklyn at an ex-f
pense of about $60,000 which they call the‘
Church of the Pilgrims. The Rev. Dr. Adams
of New York has been called as Pastor—a very
able Divine. I fear that if the old Puritans
should on some bright Sunday morning a month
hence, take a survey of the faslionable worship-
pers assembled in that beautiful Church, they
would hardly recognize them as being lineal de-
scendants of the Pilgrims. “The times change
and we change with them ;" but so long as the
character of the Pilgrims is held in veneration,
we may rest assured, that something of their
spirit still survives:
“No! the Pilgrim spirit is not dead, it walks in the
noon's broad light:
And it watches by the bed of the glorious dead with
the holy stars at night."
So much for Brooklyn, its war, its inhabit-
ants and its Churches, and now for this matter
of fact City, New York. Its never ceasing
hum of business becomes painful now, after
dwelling in thought for a while in quiet Brook-
lyn. And then in the business streets one sel-
dom meets with-a pleasant, good natured face.
All is care and anxiety. As men meet each
other, there is a sign of recognition—a llUl'l'l6d
inquiry about the state of the markets, the la-
test news from Washington or England, and on
they press, each striving to over-reach his
neighbor and to heap up riches for spendthrift
childrento squander. And this they call life!
And men coniehere and work like the veriest
galley slaves for the sake of being called rich.
I have sometimes thought that the citizens of
New York had but two objects in view in this
world——viz: ‘om man‘s sole objectwas to make
money, and woman's to spend it. In Wall street
you see man, in Broadway, woman. The rust-
ling silks and gaudy colors with which ostenta-
tious matronsan maids display their wealth in
Broadway, have been bought by speculations of
“doubtful character" in Wall street, or by mon-
ey amassed after years of anxiety, care and toil.
But I will stop, or I shall be run over by some
of the splendid equipages dashing through
Broadway. . . ..
Since I last wrote to you there has been still
further news from England—not very iinpor-
tant, nor differing in its peaceable character from
that before received. There is one thing wor-
thy of remark, however, and it is this. The
Press in England are striving to make the Colum-
bin river the boundary line—or rather they in-
.its party l1.'lS increased its last Sprii'ig’s vote——
? Flour, is si2il"ci‘iiig a gradual decline in price.

confusion which sometimes accompanies the
work of getting to press, of course leads to a
somewhat superficial examination of the proof-
sheets. At other times, errors that are marked_
in the proof are passed over without the proper
corrections, and seldom having time’ to revise,
they run through a whole edition. VVc will
endeavor to reduce in number’ of these’ causes of
complaint, if we do not remove them altogetlior.

Virginia Elcction.—A House of Delegates
and one fourth of a Senate was elected in Vir-
ginia last Thursday, 23d. 16 wliigs and 7 locos
thus far are elected. The Whigs have gained
Hanover and Fairfax counties, the first by $21 and
the last by 24.
Appearances are quite so so.
The Farmer with an air of triumph, asks
where that 400 majority is that the Gazette
reckoned up before election in the 12th Dis-
trict’! If our neighbor will take the trouble to
subtract the \Vliig vote of this year from the
VVhig vote of last, it will find the difference is
‘but 5 short of 200, and this added to our present
lmajority, the missing 400 is pretty much ac-
icounted for. \Vliatever of loss we have sus-
'tained, is not found in corresponding gain on the
,otlicr side. “/6 have however loaned the Lo-
'cos a few votes, which we doubt not they will
as ;:r.v.c'.o:isly rei'urn next Spring.
Since the Fariiier has taketi to iiitcri-ngatc
us, we will be gratified to have it show where
