The Matter.—The little Ihst has a particu lar spite at Mason Jones, the eloquent Irish orator, losing no opportunity to sneer and gibe at him—speaking of him as no orator, snd unable to entertain on audience. If Jones were a Catholic Irishman, instead of being a Protestant, and a pro-slaveiy Copperhead in stead of being an advocate of freedom, he would be esteemed by Ibe Jbrf as a great ora tor, a true patriot and an exceedingly worthy gentleman. That’s what is the matter. Becobber’s Court.—The following busi ness was transacted by this tribunal Satur day: People vs. Ellen Kansc, larceny, trial by jury.

He enlisted a company of which he went to the field as Captain, and was afterwards promoted to be Lt. Colonel of the 28d Michigan, which position he held at the lime of his death. He was a genial com panion, a brave soldier, and a scholar. He was for some time army correspondent for the Tribuks at Port Royal His numerous friends will join us In sincere sorrow for his untimely death. The Oak at Harlem.— This School, taugflrEy 0. W. Herrick, Esq., held its annual exhibition on Friday evening, and attracted a large number of visitors from this city. The scholars shawed the effects of careful training and thorough discipline. The “Greeting Song,” the recitation of the “Ma lilac,”, the valedictory address, and the quar tette singing, were especially worthy of q*ro!sc. This school docs not seem afraid to cypress lie patriotism substantially, fur they l unanimously voted to dispense with the ser vices of a band which they have always had on similar occasions, and devote the net pro ceeds of the exhibition to aid our soldiers. There are no Copperheads in tbe Oak Rldgo gchooL Thea-The. —Miss Jane Coombs concluded ihc second week of her engagement on Sat urday evening, to another large and fashiona audience, and commences her third and lit Icon Monday, appearing as “Lady Teazle,” 3u Sheridan’s comedy of “The School for fivundal,” In which she will be supported in. He principal characters by Messrs. Rainford, its, Carden, Uhl, McVickerand Mrs. Mar- Lie.' This beautiful comedy has not been pro in. ted to a Chicago andicncc for a long time, ■a: .1 a general desire exists to witness Miss Coombs as “Lady Teazle,” which she will doubtless render In such a manner as to In crease the admiration now entertained for her by our play goer*. Closing Out Sale.'— H. J. Reed at 35 Lake street, will be closing out his entire stock of ikney goods, notions, hosiery, hoop-skirts, «fcc., till tbe first of May. This will afford a rare opportunity for the public to purchase goods at low figures. The stock offered by Mr. Reed is very ex tensive, embracing everything usually called for or thought of In his line of trade; as to the quality of the goods, they arc certainly superior to most shocks In this market, hav ing been purchased by parties whose experi ence and good taste render them capable of making the best possible selections. "We advise everybody wishing to purchase goods of this character to visit Reed’s, before huying elsewhere. They will undoubtedly save money by the operation. Close of the Wistek Term op the Pub lic Schools.— Tbe several public schools dosed on Friday last, for a vacation of two weeks, which will be equally enjoyed by both teachers and pnpils, all of whom will resume their tasks two weeks from next Monday. The closing exercises at the Jones School were of an unusually interesting' character, and the exhibition was attended by a large number of parents. It was a very creditable affair throughout, and reflected great credit upon the school. At the close of the afternoon exercises at the Skinner School, the teachers, as a slight token of their esteem, presented the Prlncl pal, Mr. A. N. Mcrrlman, with a beautiful photographic album, and appropriate address es were made by the donor and the recipient. Mr. Mcrrlman has dedicated the album to the teachers, and intends to collect the photo graphs of all the teachers who have taught in that school We understand it is contem plated to purchase a large sized melodeon to . he placed in the hall, to aid the scholars in their musical' exercises. This is a laudable project, which we hope to see accomplished. The South Water Street Fire—Losses xsd Iksuiukce.—At the hoar of going to press on Saturday morning, the fire on South • Water street had not been extinguished, and it was impossible to prepare any correct esti mate of the damages.

Epcohca by Col, EUitaorpa and John Wentworth. rior»llic.D U) Effct a Honnmmt to onr Gal- lant I)«J, The Union Club held a very enthusiastic meeting at their rooms in Dickey’s Block, on Saturday evening, which was very largely at tended, the capacious hall being filled to over flowing. At 8 o’clock Col. Ellithorpe being present, was invited to address the meeting, ■ by the Chair. The Colonel, in response, said that he did not come to make a speech. Ho did not even know the character of the meet ing, but he presumed, of course, that it was a Union meeting. lie trusted it was not a partisan one—ifso, partisan only for coun try. He doubted not it would be of interest to the audience to hear from the army ol tho frontier, with whom communication is Infre quent, and facilities for obt.lining information not the best. Ah far as the army of the fron tier has gone it has whipped everything it has met. It was thought by the Department at Washington that the loyal In dians might be of great service In putting down the rebellion. He, with three or four other officers, had been commissioned to en list them, and they had now In the service some 5,000 of the Crete?, Cherokee*, Semi nolea, Choctaws and Onachitas. Ho had rais ed the first regiment of lojal Choctaws. If any who may not be called Americans are worthy our respect and the consideration of the Government, it is these Indians. They were driven bv their enemies for miles, bare footed over tile snow, rather than take up arms against the Government His experi ence with the Indians was that they were as brave and would face the cannon’s mouth as readily as the Anglo Saxon. Many oCthe audience might hare thonght the negro would not fight. He hadbeencom pelled to organize negroes to act as interpre ters, and in every instance where the intelli gent blacks were brought in contact with their rebel masters they knew no such word as fear. The Idea that they would not fight was non sense, and tlial we should not use them was worse than nonsense. The negro’s bullet went as unerringly as the white man’s, and killed as many rebels. He would fight rebels with anything that would whip them rather than see this Government destroyed. You cannot stand back and say we will support the Administration if it takes this or that ac tion. You mnst establish the broad principle that every man must put his shoulder to the wheel and strike for a common purpose. If the North only understood the question, if it had been in the field, ii it had seen these men begging us to let them fight, offering to do it without pay, only let them be free and scud them where we pleased, then the Nor;h would appreciate the necessity of using them. The speaker alluded to an attack made upon a company of fifty untrained, ignorant and poorly armed blacks at Fort Lincoln, commanded by black officers, by a cavalry company of rebels, splendidly armed, and commanded by the guerrilla Livingston. The blacks whipped them, and although on foot, chased them three miles. If the Copperhead thinks it derogatory lorthe negro to fightfor his own liberty, let him take his place. He was here on recruiting service, and would like to take a company of Copperheads with him. to the frontier, and It he did not convert them he would pay a handsome forfeiture. In your election, support of the Govern ment in all its measures should be the issue— Union without on “if’ or a “but”—no plank for semi-traitors. If a roan is recreant to his Government, the place should be too warm for him, and he should be compelled to go South. You, here at your peaceful fire sides, have little idea of tbelndignatiou in the army at this fire in their rear. The boys are so indignant that they almost turn their guns northward. The speaker depicted the horrors of war, and the desolation in the South, and closed with an earnest appeal to his hearers to stand by the Government as their sons and brothers were doing in the field. After the applause had subsided, Frank Lumbard sang the “ Battle Cry of Freedom,” the audience joining in the chorus, after which John Wentworth took the stand. Af ter defining the province of parties as being constituted to carry out principles, the speak er traced the mission of the Union party. Its principle was a great moral question of right, and must prevail. And’lh«s moral ques tion could be subdivided into two branches, the right of man to the products of his own labor, and the right of the laboring classes to the fruits of their labor in fixed standard values. The speaker contended that the war could only be terminated by the removal of the cause, and traced the history of slavery com promises from the lime of the adoption of the American Constitution. It did not die out, because it was made an element of poli tics. But free States so iucreased that a Re publican President was elected; then it be came necessary for the rebels to destroy the government, that they might save their insti tution. The Democracy will soon get sick of sup porting their burden. They cannot afford to carry it, as it prevents their getting office. If the Democracy want to win they must outbid the Union party. They must kill more reb els. He denounced the folly of the idea that the negroes would crowd out white labor at the North. The inferior race never could en croach upon the rights of the superior. Tak ing the negro from the South,is taking justso much bread and butter from them. European sympathy had hitherto supported tbe rebellion, but now there was no danger of inter Terence. The people of Europe would not allow" it. The foreigners of this country would not. It was a good thing that nations fhould learn not to be dependent on each other 100 much. If France and England Lave been depending on us for cotton let them raise their own cotton. In like, manner we must not be dependent upon the South, for no fabric can ever be king here. The speaker then alluded to the folly of amnesty, and said the greatest obstacle to the close of the war was tbe fact that if peace were concluded,tbe rebel officers couldnever again get a situation. Their only hope of getting their bread and butter was under a Southern Confederacy, with Jeff, Davis at its head. lie thought the times were not foreboding.' If the financial affairs of a cpnutry were right, everything else would go right. N# man bat a traitor disliked Secretary Chase. With matters all right at home and abroad, let the war go on until the cause is removed. Then shall’we have victory. We have given above the of the address. There were many features of it we have omitted—personal innuendoes, charac teristic slurs and hints, which ho knowa bo well how to nee, and which, npon such an occasion, were purely gratuitous. The public mind is not now in the mood for such things. It desires no tampering with the great work before it. That work is too solemn, too serious, toallow of any demagog ical interference. If Mr. Wentworth, or any other man, cannot speak without insidiously throwing firebrands, covertly thrusting ob ■tacle* in tbe way of the grand progress of , the Union cause from victory to victory, then let him go back to the Summit and ruralize among his rams and bulls. The publiccauuot nnd will not suffer, him nor any one else to impede the great work, or forbid success by artful devices veiled with pretended zeal. They can belter endure another two years of his neutrality in the cause of the Union. He mistakes the temper of those with whom he la' dealing. The speaker closed with nn appeal to the Democracy, and a reiteration of Uis senti men's. Frank Lumbard and Major Camp bell sang the “Sword of Bunker Hill” in splendid style, arousing the enthusiasm of the audience. Before adjournment, the President, Col. F, A. Eastman, stated that a friend had made the suggestion to him of the propriety of the Club's erecting a monument in commemora tion of the gallant sons of Chicago who have fallen, or shall fall in battle, upon which their names shall be inscribed. He would pro pose, therefore, that a book be opened for subscription to that purpose. A motion was made in accordance with the President's and prevailed unanimously. Upon motion, the Club adjourned. Slcodclssolm’s Elijah. Of this sublime production of art, a com-, petcnt critic says; If-wo except the “Mes siah” and the “Creation, 1 ’ which long ago called out the highest resources of musical art, there is scarcely a subject within the en tire range of Scriptural history containing so many One points for delineation, as the life of Elijah. It embraces a succession of Incidents susceptible of being wrought out with a great deal of draaia'ic effect, and all bearing more or less directly upon the lulftllmcnt ol his sacred mission, and the grand closing scene of his life. The great, leading idea of the work is something high and apart from the simple development of characters and events —something that overshadows the whole with a halo of glory that is rather fell than directly perceived. It is less an actual embodi ment than a subtile presence that diffuses itself like the sunlight, warning and vivify ing, vet invisible—the infinite glory and majesty of God. The central figure, around which clusters the human and dramatic interest of the work, is the prophet Elijah. It is a theme for mas terly delineation—this pure, earnest and holy man, inspired of God, and watched over by angels, pursuing his lonely and perilous way in the firm strength of a sublime and lofiy purpose. The music is written for a basso, and although warmed with compassion, deep ened witlCdevotlon, or softened with sorrow, as the language may require, it is character ized throughout by strength and dignity. While the snbject Is taken from the famil iar history of Elijah, it is clothed to a great extent in language drawn from the most highly poetical passages of the Psalms and Prophecies, with such slight verbal alterations as the music requires. Nothing could bo finer than ihc effect of the sublime old He brew poetry in this connection. The grand but severe historic outline, touched with the colors of sacred lyric Inspiration, springs into warm, glowing, ever present life. It is no longer a simple fact, bnta palpable presence. The principal points of dramatic Interest In r 1 P art °* the work arc, the restoration ®£} do . w ’ B son, the scene between Elijah S? Baal, and the prophet’s or 11 * Oratorio opens with the of EUJIh - “AiOod the Lord whom 1 stand, there Sriiugto'ufv ZS&** *»». b»t - The chorus of the people which follows the overture, daring which »long period of time is supposed to hare cWcd,Vp e culiM]y “ prewive of helpless suSennj.. 'r h( , tcrnatcly swells with ••arocstnes* ai.d dive un-ay In thu jf ouayaiUug rovrow, There ]-n si rang touch of despair In the recitative chorus, ns each part takes up its burden of bitter complaint alone. Tub i hurt, broken phrases of melody are full of dnaty desnla'lou. Then follows the beauti ful duet, “Zion spreadeth her hands for aid.” The hopelessness of sorrow seems to strug gle with the calm resignation of frith, and the low, murmured refrain of the people, “Lord, bow thine car to our prayer,” returns at sol emn intervals with thrilling effects. The imrl of Obadlah is arranged forji tenor voice, and is mostly expressive of hope and consolation. Much of it Is highly devotional, but the viin of rubdued tenderness running through it contrasts finely with the greater strength and power suggested by the music of , Elijah. The double quarto te of angels la happily introduced after the sorrowful scenes thus far represented, and greatly relieves the preceding chorus, which portrays wb.h in terne vividness the mingled passions and fears of a despairing people. It is musically very (flVctivc. The angel solos are assigned to a contralto. The restoration of the widow's son is a fine piece of musical coloring. The first wordsof the widow arc in a tone of querulous com plaint. Then, as if a new thought had occur id to her, she breaks forth into a cry for help, so toucliing in its imploring sorrow, so earnest, so thrilling, that the very music seems to rush and throb with the trembling love and agony of a mother’o heart. The doubtful eagerness with which she greets the first dawning of hope, the tremulous assur ance, and the joy # that overflows in a glad song of thanksgiving and praise when the blissful reality bursts fully upon her, con trasted with the firm trust and calm com passion expressed in the tones of Elijah, fine ly illustrate tho power of music in the por trayal of delicate shades of feeling. Some of the most characteristic music of the Oratorio is introduced in the next scene. The priests of Baal are assembled to prove the power of their gods by invoking tho descent of fire upon the sacrifice. The cnorusscsof the priests are totally unlike any music wc should dignify as religious. They arc wild and noisy, out without either the strength or solemnity of devotion. Tho strains are those of revelry, rather than of prayer. Again, and yet again, their loud and frantic cries are repealed with increasing fury, but still in vain. Then follow with admirable effect, the eloquent prayer ol Elijah, and the beautiful quartette of angels, in those soothing wordsof peace and consolation, “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee.” There is something grandly impress ive In the simple invocation here introduced, and the sudden descent of the fire upon the altar. The prophet stands alone in the midst of his enemies, the solo representative of truth. ‘Willi fearless trust he calls noon God in a single brief sentence of prayer. No more is needed, and thus he is vindicated in the presence of the people, who cry out first in accents of wonder and surprise, that deepen gradually into awe and reverence, as they re cognize more fully the power which has wrought this mighty miracle before them. The closing scene of the first part is the prophet’s proyerfor rain. The picture is call ed up with wonderful vividness by the music —the fervent prayer of Elijah, the earnest supplication of the people, and the frithless indifference of the youth who looks out upon the sea and answers, “ There is nothing. The heavens are as brass above me.” No depth, no fullness, no feeling in those brief words, but a cold hard fret, announced in equally cold liard tones. Again, and yet more ear nestly, arc represented the prayer and tho re sponse of the people, and again the high un sympathetic voice answers, “There is noth ing. The earth is as iron under me.” A third time with renewed fervor is the prayer offered, and “Behold, a little cloud ariseth now from the waters.” The gradual coming of the storm is vividly represented by the orchestra. The closing chorus is one of the finest in the whole work, and is wrought out with wonderful power. The loud voice of the storm is lost in the glad praises of a great people. Never before did the sublime poetry of those words find such glorious expression. “ Thanks he to God! He lavethtbe thirsty land! The waters gather; they rush along; they arc lifting their voices I “The stormy billows are high; their fury is mighty: but the Lord is above them, and Almightyl” THE ECCLESIASTICAL COURT. Trial of Rev. E. W. Hagar. First Week’s Proceedings, Joliet, April 11,1863. The Court having adjourned, last evening, until 2 o’clock on Monday next, I propose to give yon a brief statement of what has trans pired up to the present time. Services were held at Christ Church, at the usual morning hour on Tuesday. No allu sion was made, during any part of the services, to the occasion which had brought the Church together, unless it he found in the Psalter for the seventh day of the month—the trial com mencing on the 7th of April—from which we make the following extracts: Plead Thou ray cause, O Lord, with them that strive with rac, and fight Thou against them that fight against rac. Lit them he confounded and pat to shame that seek alter my sonl; let them be tnrned back, and bronght to confusion, that imagine mischief for me. For they hare privily laid their net to destroy me without a cause; yea, even without a cause have they made a pit for my soul. Let a sudden destruction come upon him una wares, and hi* net that he hath laid privily catch himself, that he may fall into bis own mischief. False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my my charge things that I knew not. But lu mine adversity they rejoiced, and gath ered themselves together; yea, the very objects came together against rao unawares, making mouths at me. and ceased not. With the flatterers were busy mockers, who gnashed upon me with their teeth. Lord, bow long wilt Thou look .upon this? O deliver my soul from the calamities which they bring on mo. and my darling from the Hons. Awake.and stand up to judge my quarrel; avenge Thou my cause, my God and my Lord. Let lliem be put to confusion and shame toge ther, that rejoice at niytroublejlet them be clothed with rebuke and dishonor, that boast themselves against me. Let them be glad and rejoice, that favor my righteous dealing; yes.let them sayalway. Blessed be the Lord, who hath pleasure in the prosperity of Ilia servant. The understanding here was that the exami nation •w'onld he held at the Church; but the Bishop, having decided to make a Star Cham ber affair of it, selected the room occupied by the Town Council, in the second story of the Engine House, with which there is no com munication with the outer world, except through a single door, which is guarded by two men —one in the court room, the other onMde the door. The Court convened at 3 o’clock Tuesday afternoon. Three reporters, connected with Chicago daily papers, passed jn wi’h the at tendants, and seated themselves on a bench where their position was covered from the Bishop by a very large stove; but they were soon discovered by one of ihc presenters, who communicated the fact to the Bishop. The Bight Reverend at once advanced with hasty steps to the remote corner where they were sealed, and told them they must leave; that the rule was imperative, and that not one word of the proceedings could be made pub lic. One of the reporters asked him if the question of their expulsion would not be sub mitted to a vote of the Court. The Bishop replied the decision was made, and there could be no further action on that subject— that they could not be sdlowcd to remain, lienee they withdrew. The entire afternoon was spent npon the discussion of the rules of the Court, some of which were of such an arbi trary nature, and bore npon their very face such a plain impress of tyranny, that the present ers and attorneys generally, protested against their adoption, and in one or two eases either thorough modifications were made, or tbe or der was entirely omitted- One of these orders was that no one should be admitted, or allow ed to be present at any time during the Inves tigation, except tbe Court, the Presenters,tbe Counsel ou cither side, the accused and the witnesses. After a warm debat-3, this was so far modified as to allow the presence of Mrs. Hacer, Rev. H. N. Bishop, Rev. Dr. Clarkson ana J. J. White, esq., one of Mr. Hager’s ves try. Several other Episcopal clergymen and vestrymen, from this city and from Chicago, have applied for admission, and in every in stance been refused. Another order of Court which was dis cussed at length as being arbitrary, was that the accused should sit ki such a position, during his trial that he could not see the wit ncsses.face to face. This was finally consented to, but not until the Counsel for the defence bad fully expressed their views upon tbe sub ject. Monday, Thursday and Friday, were de voted principally to receiving the testimony of Mrs. 8. W. Stone, the principal witness for the prosecution The questions are pro pounded by the Bishop, and arc precisely such ns would bo suggested by aa examina tion, under the charges made in the present ment. As the questions arc first read in an audible tone by the Bishop, and written oat by each of the attorneys, and then read a sec ond time, Ihcwitness'fcas abundant lime in which to reflect, and form precisely such aa answer us she wishes to give. Not unfre quently a debate arises upon some of the questions or answers, which is warmly parti cipated in by the attorneys on citherside, and which debate, in some instances occumcs an hour or more. It seems a standing excuse of the Conrt, to rule out any arguments offered bv the defense; on the ground that it is irrelevant to the cose; or that it is a matter that cannot with pro priety be discussed before such a tribunal in the presence of ladles, Ac. But with all due deference, the defense have maintained their position, am! contested inch by inch, the ground that bas been passed over. Few ladies of the same standing In commu nity have overpassed a more rigid and critical strict examination than Mrs. Stone, while upon the witness stand in this case. Des perate cflorts have been made by the prosecu tion to magnify a mole-hill into a mountain, and to attach undue importance to many trifling acts of every-day occurrence; but thus far, they have been unsuccessful. Mrs. Stone's testimony does not maintain the charges made In the specification; there is scarcely one of them that has not, when sifted, dwindled into insignificance, and that may be considered as unimportant, to say the least. The prosecution are donbttpss dissatisfied with the character of the testimony on record, and as the adjournment last evening was hastened somewhat, in order to allow the Counsel andjotbers to take the cars to Chi cago, it is possible tbe Counsel may write out other questions, to be propounded to Mrs. Stone on Monday; if so, she will be recalled. Mrs. Pcrrigo wifi be the next witness, accord ing to the programme, bnl it is not yet certain that she will appear. The Court cannot com pel hcrattendauce, and Mr. Penigo, as well as Mr. Stone, arc strongly opposed to the pub licity which necessarily ensues, of this exam ination. Every precaution has been taken by tbe Court, and by every one attending, to keep strictly secret all that shall transpire during the investigation, yet the important facte are known, and to a limited extent pub- Ihhcd, the pledge of secresy demanded and obtained by the Conrt, from all attendants. ■ Counsel and witness, and the double guard at the door, notwithstanding.

The inflammation may vary so much In appearance that its nature and extent can only be determined by a practiced eye.by onefamiliarwlthewpy grade and stage of the disease. The inhalation of colder damp and sometimes of warm air middust, generally excites a slight balking cough for tbe time, and when the disease is complicated with Catarrh, the symptoms of that ugly disease ore likewise aggravated. From the upper cavities of the throat, the dis ease passes by a short and easy stage Into tin lar-. yux— the cavity in which the'voice is made; the lloid secreted to labricate the parts becomes acrid, and hoarseness occasionlly ensues—possibly there may be aphonia (a total loss of tbe voice) for a lime or peimanently. There may be a feeling of suffocation, oppression in breathing,and an almost constant irritation of the throat. The disease soon passes into the body of the windpipe, and the large air passages of the lungs. , „ Bronchitis, as the inflammation Is called alter It has extended thus far, differ* from Pharyngitis only in being In a far more dangerous locality, and clearly belongs to the family of Consumption. The invasion amfadvancc of the disease is so Insid ious as hardly to attract notice, and it frequently makes fearful inroads before the patient Is aware of its presence, as he is generally confident that he cannot have Consumption, and regards bis symp toms as only those of a cold, of which the warm weather will relieve him. Chronic Bronchitis ia an inflammation of the mucous membrane of thc*air tabes,' Which con tinues a great length of tnnewithout any sudden or remarkable changes. A congli is generally present, which is increased in wet weather, and by every slight cold. This comes on in paroxysms, generally worse in the mornings, and relieved by raising freely. The matter raised Is generally yellowish, but sometimes whitish and tenacious; and in the latter stages is thick, and very much like that of Consumption. But it is not only to local caufe* that Consump tion is due. Other conditions of tbe system often ‘ Invite the disease. It is not unusual for persons to fall victims to Consumption who bare been care ful in regard to exposure to inclement weather, even taken the best care of themselves in this re spect. We would call the attention of the patient to a , true state of his case, and impress upon him tbe importance of arresting the disease white in its in cipient stages, for a complaint curable now, in a few days or weeks may soon pass into a stage where human aid will be of no avail. The causes of consumption, embrace all those IhingswLich bring a destructive force against the Digestive and neslmnlative functions,—as im proper and insaffident food,dissipation, sedentary mbits, anxiety of mind, as well as those which act injuriously upon the breathing organs,—as im pure air, inflammation of the lungs, pleurisy, measles, whooping cough, etc., and" such as dis turb the perspiratory process,—as insufficient clothing, atmospheric changes, sleeping in damp sheets, etc. Persons, therefore, who hare Catarrh, Throat Disease or Bronchial Affections, or those who may have suffered from Dyspepsia. Liver Complaint, Scrofula, Imparity of the Blood or General Dcbil* ty, should make immediate and proper efforts to recover health before that greatest of blessings has forevergone, and a lingering or rapid con* sumption closes the scene. What the New Orleans Delta of December 21st, 3850. says of Dr. James, Jormerly of James’ Hospital, New Orleans, 82 Custom House street, established 1850, and now of 86 Randolph street, Chicago,Hl.: “Nous More Capable.— There la no physician in onr rather extended acquaintance in the profes sion, who is more capable, and surely none has gained so enviable a reputation in the treatment of special diseases, than Dr. Jamoa, 82 Custom House street. The Doctor has made so many won deiful and speedy cures that it is not to be wonder ed at that his oflke is so often filled with unfortn- nates who came to him as a dernier resort, having full faith in his skill and experience. It Is aston-* Idling that so many will suffer themselves to be trifled with by physclans who hare [never made their special disease a study, and who prescribe the same remedy for all cases. Dr. James has spent years in perfecting himself in this peculiar line, and is as near perfection as can be.” Dr. James speciality is in the treatment of dis eases of the blood and organic weakness.

The intelligence from Charleston published this morning was interpreted by speculators on Wall street as being unfavorable to the national arms, and as a matter of course gold advanced to 152#, but afterwards fell to 160, and closed with the first Foard unsettled at 160@151. This caused a firmer feeling on’Change among holders of all kinds of produce; but buyers showed but little faith in the permanence of the advance in gold, and there was no material change in prices.* It was difficult to buy at yesterday's quotations, and almost equally difficult to sell at any improve ment? There is a very general belief that Charles ton ia doomed to fall with the attack of Hunter and Dupont, but it is not expected that li'Stf than a week's bombardment will accom* plleh it. The Wheat market *liows an advance of abont *>c P bushel, with sales of No. 1 Spring at sl.lß# ©1.17# for Winter receipts, ani $1.19£1.20 for fresh receipts; No. S Spring. $1.02#@1.03 for Winter receipt?, and sl.W#Ol.os# for freak re ceipts.

The demand at any advance was light, and confined chiefly to short sellers and speculators. Oats were held very firmly, but buyers did not feel inclined to follow the market any higher at present, and the sales were light, at C9c for fresh and 67c for winter receipts No. 1. Bye opened firm at 76c for fresh receipts No. 1 in store, but the market closed dnll with no buyers at that price. A lot of prime Michigan Barley was sold at $1.45. Hlghwines were dull and nominal at 40c. Seeds were more active. About 1,000 bu Timo thy were sold at $1J50®1.65-princlpally at $1.50 for good qualities. Clover Seed still remains doll, with sales of retail parcels at $5.00@5.50. Flax Seed was active and easier—with sales of 200 bu prime quality at $2.75, and inferior at $1.75. Tbe Provision market was firm but inactive. Prime Laid Is held at 10c, with buyers at 9>*c. Mess Pork is also in better demand, but buyers and sellers arc apart. Beef Cattle were In good supply, but owing to still more unfavorable news from Albany, the ship ping demand was almost entirely cat oil, hat the government contractors were purchasing freely, though quietly, and the market closed quiet at a decline of Me from the ruling prices of this day week. The sales foot up some 1,000 head at a range of $3.2£&5.25-the latter figure being paid for one drove of fancy ” beeves. The balk of the transactions ranged from $3.75©4.50. Live Hogs were dal! and tbe market closed qniet ata decline of folly 25c 100 lbs on the prices of this day week.

The market for dry hides has been very dull dur ing the past week, and prices are heavy, though nominally unchanged, as a general thing, the trade have supplied their immediate requirements, and do not wish to purchase ahead unless at a con siderable concession from present rates; this holders will not submit to, and the business is limited. Domestic slaughter meet with a mode rate inquiry at about former rates, though the buy er rather has the advantage. Quotation for all de scriptions, in the present unsettled state of affairs, are altogether nominal, and wc consequently omit them. The stock of hides on hand is about 100,003, against 175.000 same time last year. New York Seed Market—April S.

New York Dry Goods Market, [From the Independent, 9th.] The market presents a very moderate activity for the season of the year, owing to the fall in gold and the uncertainty felt as to its future price. Goods arc full twenty per cent, lower, and yet thcie is no great activity of demand, buyers only supplying immediate wants. Trade, though dull, at private, is more active in the auction room, many tales having been held; but the stocks arc rot large, and desirable goods command full prices, according to the premium on gold, the changes in which, alone cause the fluctuation In prices. The tendency is downward. A rather large business has been do ing in calicos at the reduction submitted to last week. The spring styles are sold more readilybc cause holders are reluctant to bold over stock another year, when it Is considered ccrta in prices will be much lower. Brown and bleached shirt logs and sheetings are dull, though jobbers have mmetd their prices. Drills are iu demand for Government. Cottonades have sold freely at auc tion at a slight redaction. Woolen goods move slowly. Fancy cassimerei arc temporarily dull, except for the most desirable styles. Silk mix tures arc in large supply. Delaines are much lower, and there is a desire to close ont old slock. Foreign poods arc dull. The supply is improv ing. The fall in the rates of exchange affects prices in favor of the buyer considerably The Importations are greater. Fancy dress delaines have declined, but plain colors being mostly wanted, are very firm, and bring remunerating pricqs. Some Importers sell only for cash, paid in gold. The buyers therefore know what the difference ie by the high price of cold, which they mnst bny to pay the importer. Black dress silks sell readily. Saxon; woven dress goods have sold at auction at a decline, but were readily taken. Ribbons also were freely offered and sold, the lots being duplicated. White and Mals were the moat desirable colors. Paris shawls and French worsteds attracted a good demand at fhir prices. British goods are very quiet.

This is 2,925 head less than last week, and 3,331 more than the corresponding week of last year. Notwithstanding this great decrease and the de cline In freights, the market, under the Influence •of diEcouragingadriccs from New York, and a ma* terial decline in Albany, has ruled with less anima tion and excitement than we fcaro seen in some, time. The high prices demanded prevented the shippers from operating to any extent, as several of them hayc sustained losses through the “break” In the East, and. In order to effect sales, holders had to submit to a concession. The Government contractors were purchasing freely, but quietly, and they got better stock at lower prices, than at any time during the past month, as will be seen by the account of waca below. A few extra bollocks sold at SQ6J{Ci but they wore exceptions—and oot to be considered ae a criterion of the market.
