It is need l- e' to discus whereieiit has failed-the fact of its ineffioieneyis patent to all, To its workings d. we are indebted for our present police force. ,Take any view of thematter we will, we reach the same resulit-the inffiiency of the system .l, to provide cus .with proper protection, hence. the propriety of abolishing it and a return to a syster.of dirctiresponsibility. As this s is amat ter affeoting tie city only, and yet is one of great importance to us, we hope that it will meet with favor from the country members. 1,1 Another measure in which the city is greatly of interested, is a registry law. The Constitution' of thi State makes it the duty of the Legisla il tore topass such law. The last Legislature ep passed what they. termed a registry law, but e I which for all pricticabl.~i'iposes might as well It' have been called anything else, as it is wholly Ie useless tos acoinmlish its professed object. A, registry law for 'New .Orleans is not a political' in measure, called for by any one political party, s but, a ;requirement which all good and law abidi.idg citiens unite in desiring. Suia law as was intended by the framers e of the Constitution, would ensure the purity of the elective franchise, and yet give the fullest rights that can be held and exercised under the' law" and the Constitution. It should be so guarded that fraud could find no entrance-so open that the legal, honest suffragan would meet with no hindrance in the exercise of his rights. All who have at heart the interests of. the State, should endeavor to forward the pass age of a measure, the operation of which would increase those interests, and in no manner inter fere with-the privileges of any. These two measures-the abolition of the Po lice Board and the.paesage of a registry law are to New Orleans the most important meas ures that will be presnted to the Legislature during the present session. They are both in spirit and object beyond the reach of reasona ble objection, and are so fraught with what is immediately, personally and directly beneficial, both to. our own city and citizens, and to all those whose prosperity is affected by ours, as to induce the belief that they will be readily passed. The one is purely and entirely a mat ter of civic interest, and the other, so far as it has any relation whatever to thoseliving out of the city, benefito them as much as any measure that could be passed. That they are impera tively demanded is known to all; and their ne cessity should be a sufficient reason for their. I enactment. s We do not apprehend that either of the means ares to which we have 'referred will meet with any decided opposition, but we have deemed it our duty to. call attention to them, as we con sider them of paramount importance and of a nature calculated to confer great good on those whom they immediately affect. BY AND BYE-SPECULATIVE. It is very singular, in the mental organization and framework of man, the actual is too circumscribed and narrow for his useesand must ve compensation in the possible and probable; how the rude rooks and sharp ledges which he treads upon need to be pulverized in the distance, in order to bepresently endarable; how the bush must atone with its rose for the thorn, and the heav ens make restitution for much dampness and dark. neeswitha gloriousburst of sunshine. So long as the sentiment in which this is embodied has only its own vitality to rely upon, we here call it hope; when hope has molted and put on its perfect plumage we call it expec tation. Fortunately for the gregarious habits and inclinations of mankind, this tendency of looking forward and trying to pierce the veil of the future is not only individual, but likewise common and aggregate; so that, when ten, or an hundred, or a thousand men are engaged In some object, or objects, which may be ultimately affected--ojured or improved--bysome remote contingency, they combine themselves, and seek to avert the. casualty or, advance the prosperity towards which all are looking, by the ex erelse of combined action. It is this which has made towns, cities,: nations; which has carried on commerce, trade and science; which has.caused the difference be tween the present and the past, and effected what we call the world's progress. This it has already accomplished ae d made historfcal Knowing so much of what it has done we, very naturally, desire to know what it will do, and what will, through its instrumentality, be accomplished when A. D. nineteen hundred shall have burst the cerements that now shroud him. Our books tell us of New Orleans In seventeen hun. dred-a little, unimportant spot at the mouth of the MIs eisslppi, concerning which no one oared. Our histories inform usof its gradual growth. We know what it now is, and speculate as to what it will by-and-bye be. One gifted seer, hidden somewhere in the brush of the up country, looking through his penny katleldescope, has had a vision in which he saw grass growing in what are now our streets. Others have been gifted to witness its paulo past submergence in an ocean of mud, something after the style of the " Cities of the Plain." A few Northern soothsayers have founded a Haytlan republic and colored kingdom over our remains; and various little philoso phers of hatred, 'looking through their bits of smoked glass, have been rewarded with visions of dblaster and misfortune. We, here, who are more deeply interested in the pro gress and prosperity of the great metropolis of the South. west and most notable emporium of the lower half of the republic, acknowledging that our progrees has not been what it should have been-confessing that in our close attention'to matters immediately affecting us we have overlooked those more remote that are hardly less impor tant-still entertain no fears as to the future, but, com mitting our fortunes nto the hands of time, labor steadily to remedy what has been overlooked; to improve what has been begun and everyway ncrease in the future upon the present and past. Whatever may have been the opinions of our citizens with regard to railroads and their benefits, in years pest, there can be no doubt that the drain which we have suf fered, and the losses we have endured, by reason of alto gether overlooking th,.r necessity, is beginning to be felt and that merohants, planters, shippers, men of all trades' professions and interests, are beginning to lose their fear of imaginary investments in their fear of losses far more serious that may come upon them, if they insist upon re. maining secluded from the balance of the Southern coun try-imprisoned by low water as entirely as if a cordon sanitaire were drawn around us. Those who are gifted with the ability of far-seeiug and fore-seeing perceive the necesaity of crossing the earth with Iron parallels, and binding our own city to the inte rior and to the further seaboard by chains of steel, over which shall tremble the wealth of our broad arpents and the product of the rich acres that are beyond us. Should the appreciation of this event grow as it has grown, those ofus who are now here will not have grown much greyer than we now are, before, from some spacious depot of the "New Orleans, Texas, New Mexico, California and l'aciio Railroad Company," will be heard the conductor's cry: "All aboard ! cars ready for Houston, Galveston and San Francisco." And in response we shall hear the shrill whistle of the train for St. Louis, and the rapid roll of the wheels that spit tire in their revolutions for Mobile. May that day arrive soon !

WESTOn, MO., January It0.-A battle was fought last night between the pro and anti-slavery parties at the townof EHaton· Kansa Territory, and several persons were killed and wounded on both.sides. It is said that the Abolitionasia made the first attack. It is supposed that thedifonulty grew out of the eieotion of the fifteenth of December, and it ifseared that the war has again comneinced.

Several abolitionists were killed and others wounded. A company of abolitionaits from Law. rene, headed by a man named Brown, commenced the fight. The Kiokapoo Rangers and large numbers of per. sons have left for Easton. CONGRESSIONAL. Wael.,rTON, Jannary 18.-Mr. Giddiogs advocated the plurallty resolution, declaring that the House cannot organiae. Mr. Cobb saidthat with the Republicans the issue was Bans an uddisorganisation. He (Cobb) preferred Camp bell, ef Ohio, who could have been elected the other day had all voted on Thorington'e resolution. Mr. Tappan replied to Mr. Cobb, and said that the vote on Thorington'e resolution was not fair, but as the Re. publicans made a nomination other than Campbell, the vote for Speaker yesterday showed that there was not an anti-Nebraska majority in the House. Mr. Clingman offered a resoluiion providing that until a Speaker'was elected the first business each day be to vote, and no debate be indulged in until this was done; the House not to order a vote a third time on the same day, pending which the House adjourned. WaeSHncone, January 19th.-Senate not in session. In the House Clingman offered a resolution, that during the calling of the roll, no debating or personal explanations should be in order. This resolution also limitedmembers to ten minute speeches, and is not to be suspended, ex cept by unanimous consentof the House.

Whisky S5te, A rumor, which was said to bear the impress of truth, was recently circulated in Washington, to the effect that England, rather than engage in a war with the United States on the Central American question, will recede from the as sumed protectorate over the Bay Islands and the Modsquito Kingdom. It has been incorrectly reported that the last dispatches sent to Eng land were sent through Mr. Crampton. If any sent, they went through the regular chan nel.. The official dispatches received by the Canada were of no particular importance. The U. S. sloop-of-war Dale arrived at Nor folk, Va., on the 18th, after a cruise of twenty oix months on the coast of Africa. Commodore Gregory has reported himself ready to take the command of the new frigate Merrimac, at Bos ton, and many of the officers appointed to her have reported themselvesto him. The ship will not be ready for sea for several weeks yet. ONE HUNDRED AND SIX YEARS OLD.-A few days ago a mulatto woman, named Rachel My ers, died in Philadelphia, who, it is believed, from ascertained dates of other events in her life, had reached the age of one hundred and six years. She was the mother of fourteen chil dren, the youngest of whom only is living, and hois an old man. She was the mother of these children at the period of the American revolu tion. This aged woman continued to support herself with washing clothes till within the last year or two of her existence. We are gratited to learn from the Tampa Pe ninsular of the 5th inst., that Lieut. Hartsufi is not dead, but has returned to Fort Myers wounded, a ball having passed through his arm and lodged in his breast. He was doing well. The names of the four soldiers killed by the Indians are as follows: Borth, Foster, Curran and Murtaugh. A large number of balls had perforated their heads and chests, they were scalped and their bodies shockingly mutilated. By a dispatch of the 14th from New York, we learn that the steamship Granada was then ashore on West Bank. The passengers and mails were taken to the city by a steam tug, but the steamer could not be got off without dis charging her cargo. FANNY FERN MAnRED.-It is stated in the Northern papers that the lady who bears the nonmme de plume of " Fanny Fern," was mar ried on Saturday, the 5th inst., to Mr. J. Per ton, the celebrated author of the " Life of ItHo race Greely." The Richmond Whig says this is the third time the fair Fanny has been en trapped in Hymen's snares. The Richmond (Va.) Dispatch has an accountl of a collision which occurred on the 12th inst., on the Danville and Richmond Railroad, by which one man was killed, nine or ten others more or less hurt, and three engines destroyed. MARINE DISASTeRS.-A dispatch of the 14th from Norfolk, Va., says: Barque Selah, Atkins, from Boston, for Phil adelphia, was towed into Hampton Roads, by the steamer Black Warrior, with loss of spars, sails, rigging, and deck load. Barque Iteadly, Gaul, from Boston, bound to Baltimore, (now in IHampton Roads,) has been hove down, with loss of main topsail and bul warks stove. Schooner Amos Faulkenburg, Rogers, bound to New York with sails split and all hands, [seven in number,] frost bitten. Experienced very heavy and cold weather-has been as far north as Fenwick's Island, but was compelled to put back in consequence of the severity of the weather. Who WROTE SuAKSPEA.RE--Miss Delia Bacon, a Now Haven blue stocking, who is rather fa mous as a delver into history, has recently broached the theory that Shakspeare's plays were not written by Shakspeare, but by cer tain brilliant wits and choice spirits of the Court of Elizabeth. She is of opinion thatnoth ing is more likely than that such men as Sir Walter Raleigh and Lord Bacon were the au thors of those plays, which they palmed off on the world as Shakepeare's, with the feeling that it was rather vulgar for them to be engaged in such business! Shakspeare, in Delia's opinion, was a low actor, of no wit nor worth, but for a consideration of some sort, consented to act as man midwife to the conceptions of the great lights of the Elizabethan era! AN APPRENTICE SYSTEM FOR SAM.Ejo.--Poti tions are about to be circulated in Buffalo pray ing Congress to pass a law requiring all vessels to take a certain number of apprentices in pro portion to their tonnage, and to make suitable provisions for their tducation and training as seamen, 2ett 4xlfanl Opontg iiarket. COnscenT O nICn NO.r 70 Camp street, Monday Evening, Jan. 21,1856. We have bad another blast fromthe Arctic regions, but it Is attended to day with a beautiful sunshine, and an tire business in most every branch of trade, though many fine steamboats are prevented by the icy embargoes above from leaving port. We do not think that this present cold cycle will last long. Wehave no change to notein the general Money Market; A 1 paper was taken to-day at last week's rates, msy 9 per cent. The calls on the Banks to-day were not largely beyond their eoelpts, and though there eare impe diments to the receipts of produoe, the market does not feel the effects. The Exchange Market was not brisk nor was It quiet, the Banks sold their checks on NowYork at J and 3 per cent. discount, and purchased good sixty day bills on the same point at 2 ; outside there was not much doing, and we have no change to note from our last rates. There was a better feeling in Sterling-about ~30,000 of clear bills were taken at 6% and 7 per cent; bills with shipping documents were quiet, with no change from our last rates, say from 5% to 6 and 6%. In Frances we did not learn of a sale. The Exchange operations of Saturday last reached eight hundred thousand dollars. In the general Stock Market some negotiations have been made in Bank Stock, though they have not reached transfers. In St. Charles Hotel 400 shares have been sold during Saturday and to-day at 12%. At this low price this stock will assuredly pay. It is worth more than fifty cents. per dollar. At a late hour twenty shares Union Bank were sold at par. Theannual elections for Director in the Union and Mechanies' and Traders' Bank were held to-day. For the Board of the Union Bank for this year, the foilowing gen tlemen were returned: Alfred Penn. W.

The lowest amount of taxes paidis the parish of St. Bernard, *hich appears to be only $450. This is a very small amount considering that ilis chiefly confined to the cultivation of sugar. The next lowest is the parish of Wine, which paid $840. There is room for great lopping off in the expenses of the State, and as the Legislature commenced to-day, we trust it will study economy in its financial arrangements of the Stale.

Account after account comes of the ships that have been wrecked on our coast, while there are on the insurance lists numbers that have never been heard from. Some three or four large and first class vassels are now unaccounted for, and although they may yet come in, it seems like hoping against hope to expect ever again to hear of them after so long an absence. The Marine Insurance offices begin to feel the effects of their tremen dous losses. Some of the underwriters appre hend that the disasters of the year will even surpass those of the eventful winter of 1852 and '53. The interminable Forest Divorce Case, the Jarndyce of our courts, was up again this week on the motion of Mr. Forrest for a new trial. Argument was made by John Van Buren on twenty-four exceptions taken during the trial. Charles O'Connor has the defence of the "in jured woman" in his keeping. Forrest has never yet paid to his wife any of the $3000 ali mony decreed by the Court. It has been now running three years, and, with interest, will amount to about $10,000. LETTER FI.Oa fLLE RACHEL.-The following letter from Rachel while in IHavana, is transla ted from the Courier des Ebtats Lnis. It was written before she had decided to leave IHavana without fulfilling her engagement: "I remained some time in Charleston, to avoid too sudden a transition of temperature. Nineteen days of rest and sedulous care in the city were, nevertheless, not sufficient to restore me, for I cough still. " I wished to try my strength in performing the second day before my departure, at the solicitation of a number of charming ladies. This soiree of Adrienne, ('twas Adrienne I was requested to play) did not increase my illness, but it proved to me that a still longer rest was necessary before I could with regularity and without danger, renew my courageous course through America. " Here I am in Havana, well directed as re gards the care of my health. My house is com fortable, the climate excellent, and the heat constantly tempered by a breeze, both refresh ing and soft, which appears, at the same time, to repose and nourish me. This is the climate, I believe, that 1 require. The day of my debut is, however, far from being fixed upon. Can I even know whether several months of rest will not be necessary in my case ? Be it as it may, I resign myself, for I still cling to life, even though I should, for want of strength, give up tragedy." AMUSEMENTS THIS EVENING.
