The question pending wan on an amendment offered by Mr. Dickinson, providing for the appointment of the marshal* to take the cemna by the Secretary of State. Mr. Ha laky opposed the amendment, regarding it a miaerabie (ham to confer patronage upon one m*n, un tier the cry of savisg four or five dollars to each town in ihe State. Mr. Hrqok* moved to strike outtbe word* "or more," giving the Secretary power to appoint "one or more" marshals. He regarded It as giving the Secretary power to appoint one, or five or fifty, as he might determine. Mr. Dickinson regarded th* clause necessary. Some towns were Iarser tbau others, and it was necesiary to have an additional marshal. Mr. Umhof cared little about the proposed amend ment and the bill ? regarding, however, tbe general su pervision of tbe Secretary of State better than to have ao many different heads in counties and district*. He ?<aw no objection io it. In takiog the United Stated census, the Marshal of the State appointed all his de puties, and the return* were all made to him. It wa* a mutter which the Ktate should pay. It wa* a State work. He did not believe the people in the town* cared about the matter. He had heard it said that the Secretary of State did not desire the bill amended as proposed. Mr, Petnam wa* glad that the Secretary of State, wbo wa* a roost high minded and faithful publio offi cer. and knew tbe proprieties of station a* well as any other man in the State, protested against this pro posed action on a bill he had framed. Mr. Brooks withdrew his amendment to the amend ment, and The motion was taken on the amendment proposed by Mr. Dickinson, to give the appointment of marshals to tbe Secretary of State ? adopted 11 to 10. The bill having been read through, Mr. Z. Ci.ark moved to amend the bill by inserting "an act to provide for the appointment of genuine whigs to take the census of the State " (Laughter.) Mr. C subsequently withdrew bis amendment, and the hill was ordered reported to the Senate. On the bill being reported to the Senate, and the question being on sgreeiog to the report Mr. Bkookk moved to strikeout the 4th section. Mr. Dickinson moved to lay that motion on the table, carrying the bill with it. (Agreed to.) Adjourned to 10 A. M. on Monday. ' Assembly. Ai.dany, Feb. 17, 1855. BIL18 INTRODCCXD.

The aascunt of business transacted by either branch cf the legislature to day was of little importance. At twelve o'clock the Senate went Into secret executive ses sion, and confirmed a half dozen notaries, when the doors were thrown open, and that body adjourned over *ot the day. A few bills only were introduced, and thors of minor importance. The Bouse was in seeeioc two hours, The unfortu aate women are again petitioning the legislature to grant their rights, which have been so unjustly withheld from thera ever sines mother Krs ate the bitter apple.

Mr. 1 Am pert? -rather ungallautly. as was remarked? moved that the select committee be taken from the bachelors in the Bouse.

And your memorialists will erer, fee. Besides the long array of name* attached to the me morial, several of the master barbers have personally interested themselves towards assisting the honorable member in his laudable undertaking. We give letters from Mr. Pbalon and Mr. Dittman, as follows:? Nkw York, Fab. 2, 1855. To tbi Hon. Thomas J. Mvnday, Mxmukr or Asskmblt: Dkak Sin ? 1'ermit me, as a party interested, to congra tulate you on the Introduction of your bill for cloilsg barber sbopa and hair dressing establishments on Sun days, and to assure you that it meats the concurrence and approbation of tha entire trade in the city of New York. We have long regretted the existence of a cus tom which at once Ueeeorates tho Sabbath and deprive* us, and those in our employ, of the rest and opportuni ties for improvemeat which that day secures to persons ?ngagtd in other occupations. 1 have the pleasure to state, that a petition has been prepared in this city, en dorsing your bill In all its details, and that it will re aelve tho signatures of the whole trade here, employers as well as employed. This petition will soon be for warded to you, for presentation to the Legislature, and, I trust, will have a favorable effect upon both houses. There is no valid reason why those who wish to avail themselves of tha services of a hairdresser should not do so on a weak day,or why the operators in this branch of business should be compelled to toll while others are at church or at home with their familiea. That I, aa well as many others in the trade, must suffer con siderable pecuniary loss by the operation of tnis pro posed law, is quite certain; but wa are perfectly willing to surrender Sunday profits for the sake of enjoying Sundays with our families. Should the bill pass, 1 think it will enforce itself, by which 1 mean that ha r dressers will universally acquiesce in it without com fiulaion. Confident that in the views expressed in this etter I only express the sentiments of my fellow- trades men, 'as a class, and trusting that you will pi ess forward with earnestness the measure of reform you have so ju diciously introduced, I remain, dear sir, your most obe dient servant, THEO. PHALON. To tbi Hon. T1103. J. Monday, or tbi Asscmbly or tbi Statu or Naw York:? Sir? Having seen, with pleasure, your notice In the House of a bill you intended at a future day to bring forward to close all barber shops in the Stat* on Sundays, we In the trade in the city of New York send you herewith a petition for the same, signed by about two hundred and fifty of employers, &c., and there are twelve hundred more would sign If necessary. In fact, all-are unanimous for such a law, with a fine sufficient to prevent any one breaking such ? say, at least, twen ty -five dollars for each and every offeuce. We hope that you will, as early as possible, move in the matter, and use all your ii fluence to pass the same, and by doing so you will confer a great blessing on a very numerous part of your ftllow citizens. With great respect, 1 am yonr obedient servant, LOUIS DUTMAN. As there can be no actual necessity for keeping open barbers' shops on Sunday, any more than any other me chanic shop, it is evident that the legislature will take suoh action as will rewound to their own shaven faces and the interests of this large, respectable and indis pensable class of community. The State Agricultural Society met at twelve o'clock. Reports from the Secretary and Treasurer were read. At the last annual meeting a proposition was submitted to alter the constitution so that some permanent lo cality may be provided for holding State fairs. This pro position was called up for consideration. The " farmers'' debated it with parliamentary decorum. One gen tleman got the floor, and spoke in opposition at some length, declaring that the executive com mittee should not be entrusted with such power, &c-, because it had always been the practice of 1he "order." Here a tumultuous shout arose, clapping of hands, stamping of feet, ejaculations, hurrahs, and all manner of yelling, which was continued for a long period of time, the "farmer" standing all the while wofully disconcerted, with five hundred eyes upon him He is evidently a disciple of "our Sam," and for the instant imag tied himself, no doubt, chastising mm# of the "brethren" for violating their obligations in having vot?d for Seward. Gen. Burroughs was opposed to altering the constitu tion as proposed. He stated that se:ret circulars had been distributed in order to affect this very question. He had received one from Syracuse himself. Mr. Baldwin peremptorily denied that any secret circu lars had been sent from Syracuse, and demanded to know who sent them, and whose names were attached to them. He called upon the gentleman from Orleans (Mr. Bur roughs) to produce one of them, or give such other in formation as might enable the society to trace out the persons thus operating. Then quite a rustling took place, and members and bystanders were inquiring of each other whether "Sam" had really been interfering with the concerns of the State Agricultural Society. But " Sam" remained silent, as usual, and General Burroughs stated that toe communication to him was undoubtedly Intended as a secret; he, therefote, declined to give any information as to who sent it to him, or whose name was attached to it. The vote was finally taken, and the proposed amend ment was lost by a atroDg vote. So the annual State Fair will remain & travelling " institution, " as here tofore. The next fair will be held at Elmlra, on the Erie Rill road, to accommodate the sonthsrn tier of counties. Hi ogham ton does not asa for it at present. I really imagined that after spending a month and a quarter of the people's time, and tens of thouaamla of dollars of the public money, the honorable dignl tarieaof the legislature, after the election of Mr. Sew ard, would have proceeded to business. But I was mis taken, for yesterday morning several gentlemen in the House ceseecutively alluded to an article in the Hkkalo of Tuesday. Mr. Stebblne, Mr. Littlejnhn, and others, took occaMon to deny that they voted against their plighted faith in voting for Win H Seward. Among others was Mr. Rickeraon, who acknowledged himself a Know Nothing, but denied that he ever gave a pledge to Tote against Seward, or that he ever solicited a nomination to the Assembly by the Know Nothings. The members of the Legmliture, his constituents, of Greene county, and the public generally, can best judge his statement by a perusal of the following letter, which is genuine : ? Cairo. O.-t. 28 1R.'?v ? ? ? , Eeq. : ? I?ur His ? I wish you would inform me, on receiptor tli in, when the next meeting of No. 157 in, a* 1 would like to attend it. I find, by report of delegate! to No. 544, that no nomination was made for Assembly in di* trict No. 1, because both nominee* are member* of the 4 10 7 9 10. Granting each equally entitled to adoption, I think, ai in all caaei of conflicting claim* and views, the action of the majority should decide, and the unsuc cessful candidate should patriotically submit. We have now a complete Stat* and local ticket, with one excep tion, and I think that defect should hare been supplied. I will not, however, Had fault with the action or the convention, beliering them actuated by considerations which seemed to them beat for the 4 10 7 9 10. A* you are aware, I am the nomine* of the whiga in thia dii trict for member af Assembly, and of courae >iope to ?ncceed in the canvass; and having become attached to the order long before my name was mentioned in con nection with that nomination, and before I had any in tention of becoming a candidate, I did, after my nomina tion, bop* I might prove acceptable to the member* of the 4 10 7 9 10. But aa the matter stands. I have no other course but to a*k an adoption by the Councils in the district favorable to my electioa, so that our ticket may be fall. ? ? ? ? Should you see fit to inform me of the time of yonr next meeting, I should like to attend it, and, by consent, lay the matter before (our Council in person. Should, however, any considera ione render it impracticable for me to attend, I would like to have you lay the matter before your Council, and inform me the result. Fraternally yours. MARTIN L.

The persons voting for Seward, In violation of pledges, or in defiance of diitlnot instruction*, will be formally drummed out of tha ordar. Mr. Eames, the member or Assembly from Jefferson, a member of Council No. 274, want up to Syracuse to at tend the convention yesterday. He waa admitted to the room, and a resolution wa* introduced to give htm the opportunity to explain hi* vote on the Senatorial ques tion, which you axe aware was cast for Seward. By hi* own account, a majority of the convention favored the resolution, but the minority were rampant. Ihay would not sutler him to be heard, denounced him, and avea tually got so far excited a* to essay to " huatle him oat." Upon this the President adjourned tha conven tion for one hour, and Mr Kama* waa rmuggled away bv the back entrance, under a fear of personal violenc*. This is his own version of the affair. It is ceitaln that a very bitter f sol Lag prevails against the member* who were untrue to the order, ana that they will be summarily dealt with by the council*. Thi* i* the wisest courte the Know Nothing* oan pursue; but I truit they are not still *o verdant at to believe that they will by such means purge the order of all false members, the spits and tools of Weed k Co. If so, they will be again egregiously mistaken. There are two bill* now belore the Senate and Assembly to which I wish to direct your atten tion: ? First, the bill in relation to hack drivers, introduced into the upper House by Mr. Wnlt ney. You made some editorial remarks yesterday, in relation to thi* measure, whioh make me believe you do not ex*cUy understand the character of the proposed bill. It ii intended, not ao much to interfere with the existing arrangements in the city, as to bring all drivers of public conveyeneea under a general law, and to check the imposition at present practised by these men in *uch places aa Albany, Troy, Buffalo. 4c At these point* traveller* ara shamefully imposed upon, aad the bill i* specially designed, as I am informed, to meet these case*. The other matter to which I allude la a bill Introdused into the Assembly to authorize the incorporation of Ice companies in Brooklyn and New York There i* souie thug suspicious about this matter. A bill to incorpo rate tbe New York and Brooklyn Ice Company was somo time since brought In, and certain reporter* were asked a* a favor not to notice it* introduction Of course the request wa* disregarded; information of the fact of Its having been made was given to one or two members, and the bill was for a time killed. A new bill was to day Introduced, authorising under the general law tbe in- j corporation of ice companies in any locality. This list comes from the same source as the former. It the de- | sign i* to smuggle through a bill to create a monopoly of the ice trade in New York, by tha swallowing up of small deslers by one large corporation, and then raising the price of Ihe article, it bad better be made known. There seem* to be a nigger on the fence somewhere, and you will probably b? able to ferret him out. DALTON. Important to Landlordi> Mr. CUtkh has introduced in the Assembly a bill to amend the "act to abolish distress for rant," passed May 13, 1846, which amends the third (action of said act, h u to make It read as follows:?

DESPEBAfE FIOBT BETWEEN aM ALLFGED BUBOLAB AND A POLICE OKFICLB. Yesterday morning, about 6 o'clock, oflioer.Kinaer, of the reserved corpe, seeing three men in company toge ther in Broadway, under somewhat suspicious circum stances, watched them closely, and.loilowed them to th* corner of John and Broadway, wher* the trio stopped for a few moments, and after being satisfied that no one was watching them, commenced, a* is aliened by the officer, to break into the boot and shoe store in the basement at thin place Before they bad huished their work, officer Kinner bravely rushed forward fiom . his hiding place, and endeavored to arrest one of the party, whereopon he was set upon by this man, who was armed with a heavy jimmy, Ac. A brief but sharp strug gle ensued between the officer and the alleged ourglar, which resulted in the policemau being severely cut across the cheek and jawbone with the jimmy in the hand* of the burglar, which inflicted a deep gash, from which the blood flowed freely. The fellow then made his escape, and run down Broadway pursued by Kinner, who, although weak from lost 01 blood, kept up th* chase With vigor, but was unable to svertake hi* man. The bur glar tun down Thame* street into Trinity plac*. where he was hecured, after some ineffectual struggles to escape, by one of the First ward police. The prisoner was taken to tbe Third ward police station house for the remsinder of the night, and yesterday forenoon waa con veyed to the Chief's office lor examination. Here, on being examined, be stated that hiit name waa John Wil *on, that he was eighteen years of age and waa by occu pation a waiter. He waa locked up to answer a charge of burglaiy, made against him by th* officer. Kinner is badly Injured, and it will be many days before he can resume his occupation. Had the jiimney struck him an inch lower it would have severed the principal artery of tbe neck, and would In all probability have reeulted in hi* death.
