BRI TAIJV.

The excitement respecting a war
with the United States, has quite sub
sided, and the leading journals are asha-
med of the panic ; attempt to excuse it
and let themselves down gently by at-
tributing what they call the hostile atti-
tude of American Goverment to election
ruse on the part of the President and his
cabinet, although it is notorious that the
excitement was fostered and kept up by
the London Times. Anxiety is now
manifested to learn how the news of the
excitement and the comments of the
Times will be received in America.—-
Intelligent Englishmen of all ranks ex-
press themselves pained aiid humiliated
by the whole affair.

SPAIN.

Unfriendly relations are arising be-
tween Great Britain and Spain: firstly,
in reference to the case of Mr. Boylan,
British resident at Santiago, who was
expelled from Cuba in April last, not-
withstanding the agreement of Spain to
submit his grievances to arbitration.
Secondly, with reference to the appoint-

Arrests have taken place at Palermo.-
Tlic authorities say the movement is not

Murder of a Police Oflicer.
New IIAVEN, Nov. 25, 1855.

Ashockiiig affair took place in this
city last night. Two policemen, named
Thomas Cummings and Wm. Grant,
attempted to arrest a drunken man in an
Irish groggery in Morocco street, when
the gang present blew out the lights and
fell upon the officers, beating them so
severely that Cummings has died of his
injuries, and Grant is not expected to re-
cover. Cummings was Sexton of St.
Paul's Church. He reached the church
after the affray, began to make his fires
for Sunday, and was found dead near the
furnaces this morning. His skull had

The character and Men of New
York The Metropolis of North
America.

One of the duties ofthe press is to pro-
tect the public from imposition, by teach-
ing true principles. Pnblic feeling and
sympathy are justly and liumanely,exci-
ted on account of the dreadful ravages of
a pestilential disease in our neighboring
cities. Yet by Consumption, more lives
are sacrificed anually than Yeillow
Fever destroys in ten years. Pestilen-
tial diseases concentrate I.ll£'Il'd8aI.ll-d8I-
ling energies in comparatively single,
isolated localities ; while Consumption
so noiselessly sends its unering shafts here
and there, proniiscnonsly throughout all
the busy walks of life, that those who by
the way-side, fall and perish, are unheed-
ed or soon forgotten by their neighbors,
friends and relatives

The question has often been asked, is
Consumption curable .> To learned and
experienced physicians we must look for
an answer to this important inquiry-
Lanne and Louis of France, Carswell
and Stokes of England, as well as many
others of the United States, are among
able writers on Diseases of the Lungs
and Chest, who answered the question
unequivocally in the affirmative.

The opinions of great men on any
point are entitled to our respectful con-
sideration : but when men of distinction
give their opinion on a subject which
they have made their constant study for
ten or a_score or more years’ that opinion,
to a great extent, becomes an established
fact. '

There are to be met daily, instancesof
living robust and healthy persons who
have been cured of early and serious at-
tacks of Consumption.

There are many valuable members of
he medical profession, who are going the
rounds ofaii arduous practice, who have
been snatched from the jaws of that vo-
racioiis iiionsier, Consumplion.

In this city we believe Dr. Heath, of
850 Broadway is one of the most suc-
cessful practitioners in the cure of Lung
and other Chronic diseases for the reason
that we have known hiiii.a long time
and he has cured at numper of our ac-
quaiiirances.

He was a student and associate of
Professor John De La Mater, one of the
most eminent practitioners and lecturers
his country has yet produced, filling at
various times and in several Medical Col-
leges, all the different chairs of professor
ship. He also enjoy the liouor of having
been the first Professor who taught au-
scultation aild percussion, or the’ only
certain nieiliod of asceriaiiiing correctly
the diseases of the Lungs and Chest.-—
Dr. H. was a graduate of the Univer-
sity Medical College of this city, some
twelve or fifteen years ago. He is also
an uncompromising enemy of quackery
and all its auxilliaries ; and he is-‘espec-
ially caustic in lllS denuiiciatioiis against
Specifics, Patent Medicines, Patent Sho-
ulder Braces, Abdominal Supporters and
all other useless and injurious traps’ and
irammels and nets for catching the hard
earned money of the credulous.

Dr. Heath is devoting all his energies
to the treatment of Consumption, Diseas-
es of both sexes. Having siiccesfully
used Inhalation for many years, he re-
gards it as a valuable aid in the treat-
ment of uflectioiis of‘ the Lungs, but not
a specific one, when used alone, by any
means.

The Lungs. the Skin, the Stomach,
and Bowels, are all alike mediums
through which the system is brought
under the influence of remedial agents
in the cure of disease.

The Doctor's motto is "Condor and

This was owing" in'p'ai‘f'to‘ the‘ ‘very ' threaten-

’ His Curiosity Satisfied.

On Saturday Evening a gentleman got out
of one of‘ the evening’ trains, while the cars
were halting at the draw, to take a view of
the Bridge where occurred the terrible Nor-
walk disaster,‘ when prolonging his examina-
tion beyond the time required by the Engine
to halt and start again, he was left behind.
Finding himself thusjilted by the Iron Horse
be resolved to extend his examinations even
further, and in the course of his peranibu1a-
tions fell through, striking and sinking in an
erect posture to his arm pits in the mod. it be-
ing low water at the time. He was fortunate-
ly overheard and rescued from his perilous
situation, although in a nearly exhausted con-
dition. From all the circumstances, it was
presumed that the Maine Law was deemed, by
him, an “ unconstitutional enactment.”

 

fl‘ Smith’s‘ new Brick Building is now
nearly completed in its exterior arrangements.
It presents quite a formidable appearance,and
looms up like some colossal structure amid the
miserable and diliipitated rookeries which en-
viron it. It is truly a credit to the enterpri-
sing builders, and an ornament to the town.
What a pity the--phrgative blessings of last
Spring’s fire could not have extended across
the street. The Hall is already enclosed, and
the floor being raised, it will be completed in
time for Prof. Olmstead’s Lectures, we under-
stand.

Mammotln Cabbage.

Our neighbor of the Stamford Advocate has
for some weeks labored under the “ soft im-
peachment” of having the largest cabbage
head on record, but with the aid of Capt.
Stephen Hoyt, of New Canaan, (who, by the
way, is one of the most successful farmers and
nurserymen in this meridian,) we can now re‘
lieve him from the imputation. Our cabbage
head weighs within, a few ounces of thirty
pounds, and measures in circnmferencefour
feet ! Where’a Barnum ?

in front of thegreeidence of Mr. Staples, by the
removal of the old and unsightly fence which
has so long been an eyesore to eqnestrians,

on the same side of the street.

Britain was merely asked to givedeflnitely her

construction of the treaty; nor has the—admin-
istration any evidence that the-British fleet is-
intended to menace us on any ground. The

Secretary of the Navy has ordered a ship of the
Pacific squadron to proceed at once to the

newly discovered island inthe Pacific to pro-
tect an American shipmaster, who.is,,the. dis-
coverer of the island, which is said to contain

an immense quantity of gfinano-super-ior"to any

War will speedily order the troops at his dis-
posal in California, or authorize the raising of
volunteers on the [Pacific side, to proceed to
Oregon to suppress Indian hostilities. The
Oregon Indians are said to be more warlike
than any on the continent. Gen. Joseph Lane
is there, and takes deep interest in the subject.

.counthry.”. It is said that a universal
revolutionary secret society which exis. ,
ted here some twelve -.-years since, and ;
Which W35 never entirely disbanded, has 
arisen with new life and vigor. Our l
readers may‘ prolnal-ly remember a-sketch l
ofthe secret workings .of politics an-,l.l
politicians in 1844, st-hich was written
by Thos. "Dunn rm,-2-..-ii, and published l
in the New1Y«‘irk Mirror in 1846, This 3
society is referred to in that sketch under 1
the name of the “S.-F.”- It may also
be remembered thatin that publication,
the revolutionary operations of that fra.
ternity in France werespoken of, and
that the revolutionthere predicted did
actually" result in the dethroncment of
Louis‘ Philippe. ina short time after-
wards. In the ‘summer of 1852 the
same fraternity attempted a movement
in Greytown and Nicaragua, and it is
supposed that by some means, the re-
newed vitality of the association has
become known to the British Govern-
ment, and that (hit is the ‘cause of the
late alarm. A 4 J5 ‘ '

Sam is tired of achieving triumphs in
the political field alone, and is now en-
gaged in stirring up new literary lions.
There is o perfect, av‘alariche‘of Ameri-
can books pushing upon our. pfblishers
céunterearrd our--~lit‘e-rery tables. It is
gratifying to know that many of them
‘are of sufficient merit to attract notice
abroad. , American dramas are also
among the artistic notahilitiee; Several
have already been produced, and more
are behind the scenes. Young America
himself is pushing his way forward to
the foot-lights. Last week he appeared
in an‘ amateur performance at the Me-
tropolitan, and is to renew the effort at
the Academy of Music. There are
about twenty. young.,-Kmerican ladies
now preparing themselves. for the stage
in this city. _-From such a galaxy, a star
of the West must surely, before long,’
burstforth upon the waiting world.

In view of the increased demand for
vessels, and the chafices of a war with
England and France, considerable at-
tention is being attracted to the material
of our merchant marine. There are
two facts which show ‘the necessity of
such attention. First, nineteen out of
twenty of our sailors are foreigners, and
most of them so green, as to be fairly
‘classed only as landsmen. Second, not
‘more than one out of every twenty Cap-
tains sailing out o.’ the port of New
York, knows how to take an observation
at Sea. The C.hronometer is their chief
dependence. Thelarge number of ves.
sels lost during the past year, is to be
ascribed to the inefficiency of our Cap-
tains and crews. The whaling fleet,
formerly the great school of American
seamen, is decreasing yearly. Its ports
of departure and return will soon be ex-
clusively at San ‘Francisconind the coast
of New England will be renowned
for its race of hardy Yankee whalers.

The Commissioners of Schools and
Board of Trade in Baltimore have taken
the first steps towards a remedy of these
evils, they have established a floating
school for boys, in which they may re-
ceive : thorough nautical training and
education. The Chief sen-ports of our
country should immediately follow their
example, and in a few years we could
again boast of that almost trsditionary
character, a true Yankee tar.

To descend to minor matters we con-
gratulate ourslves also on being "ahead
in hats.” A few years since, no gentle-
man of ion could wear anything below’
a ten dollar London or Paris tile. New
York now turns out a cheaper, lighter,
and more graceful cylinder than any city

of Europe. _
Laces, diamonds, and furs are "fixed

faots"_for this Winte'r’s ladies regalia.
The old yellow baby caps hid "away in
our grandmothers’ trunks are looked
up and their ornaments appear on youth-
ful bressts- . Anew article .calle__d_ Cali-
forniavdiamonds are selling at half the
price of the Court jewelry, and shine
wflh equal brilliaiicy. It isa debatable
question whether the California diamond
veins will hold out long against the de-

mand.
‘ The expenses in female gear, one

would suppose, ought to frighten ‘bache-
lors from a life- partnership. But on the
contrary, we are haviiig an epidemic all
over the country, a raging matrimonial
fever. In many caset this has occurred
in the shape of elopements. In fact this
result of passional attraction is quite a
prominent feature of the disease. A
progressive genius in Wall street, pro»:
poses to organize an Insurance Compa- l
ny for the putpost: of insuring all the
virtues and inoralities and especially
matrimonial fidelity. Extra hazardous
cities. Babies are becoming so numer- A
ous here that we have established a gen-
eral public nursery for their accommoda-
tion. In yesterday's Express, a call is
made to bachelors to “fork over” some,
for the support of the nursery. In case
they do not respond Brooks gives notice
that a head tax upon bachelors will he
proposed at the nextsession of the legis-
lature. This is an excellent move to
secure the ladies support of Erastus for
Governor of the State next Fall.
