MORNING NEWS. BY JOHN M. COOPER. W. T. THOMPSON, EDITOR terms: DAILY PAPER $4 00 | TRI-WEEKLY $2 00 All Now Advertisements appear in both papers. w [Correspondence o< the Daily Morning News.] New York, May 1, 1850. It appears that seven, if not more, were killed by the falling of the wall in Wuter-st., on Monday, and the inquest St now proceeding. The accident was caused by gross carelessness or ignorance, as the wall was reported unsufe, but no one seemed disposed to order it to be taken down. The Mayor, Chief Engineer and some of the Aldermen, it is believed, are * amenable to censure in this matter? and who ever, or whatever they may be, I hope the jury will do t'aeir duly. It is feared that two more bodies may still be under the ruins, but they cannot be reached yet. The men injured by the other accident are all recovering,T under stand. Wo are in the midst of May Day movements, and the streets present a remarkable scene. Every third person you meet is carrying either a looking glass, or an usual lamp, or a hall lamp, or some other little article that wont stand ^he jolting of the cart. Little boys and girls take care of the birds end cats, und trans port them to the new domicil. Such a breuk- Sing of furniture, such u chipping and tubbing, such a scrubbing and white-washing, ami such discomfort as May Day brings to tho Goth amites, was never seen. Happy are they who don’t migrate. I witnessed Fanny Kemble’s new Cnmody, last night, “The Duke’s Wager,” for which, it is suiil, ilnss pnid $500. But it is only a trans lation, after nil, of Dumas’ “Gabriello de Belle Isle." Tho subject borders so closely on the indelicate, that, really, my modesty “suffer ed some,” and what tho ludies thought of it, I cannot imagine—they looked on, however, with tho utmost complacency. Tho ‘wager is made by tho liborline, the Dukede Richelieu, who bets two other noblemen 500 louls each, ' that ho will dishonor the first woman they meet, which huppens to be Gabriello, then under tho protection of tho Marchioness du I’rie, whose aid tho Duke usks, to enable him to win the bet. He is to be in tho girl’s cham ber between the hours of 10 anil 12 o'clock thut night, and to prove that ho is there, is to throw a note from the window to tho girl's affianced husband, who overheard tho bet. You will perceive by thU, that tho groundwork is some what dangerous to venture upon; hut it takes Fanny, who evinces, in all she does, a spirit of independence, even to riding on horseback in • pantaloons and Wellingtons. There is one scene, in which a great deal is left to the imag ination—the Marchioness loves the Duk to whom she was betrothed in her childhood, and looks upon him as her husband. She, to defeat his designs against Gabrielle, sends her away, and being herself in the room at tho time he was to meet Gabrielle, (who, in the innocence of her heart, hud consented to do so for tho purpose of hearing the result of his application to tho Min.ster, in behalf of her father and mother, prisoners in tho Bastile,) and { hearing him approach by a secret passage, blows out the light. Being in the room, the Duke throws the note from the window, and then encounters the Marchioness in her attempt to escape, whom ho mistakes for Gabrielle, and tho curtain fa'ls. The mistake occasions great anguish to tho girl and to her lover, but in the end tho mystery is cleared up. This plot is , extended through five nets, and a dull, common * p’aco affuir enough it is. It doesn't draw cith"r, and that’s bad (or Bass. I ildnk the result will prove that the $500 were badly in* ■ttj vested. We are very quiet herp—no excitement—:t man shot his wife yesterday, from jealousy, and then shot himself, and he is not expected to recover; but shooting and stabbing are of too frequeut occurence here to make any stir. CHARLEMAC. (For the Daily Morning News.] The Lawrence Divorce Case. Mr Editor; You will confer a favor upon many of your renders by the insertion of the following just i.isclnsuro of the Lawrence di- vorhocase. Tho article, we apprehend, needs no comment—it speaks for itself. “ Facts me stubborn things.’* [Front the Boston Dost.] There has been much said in the newspa pers, for a few weeks past, respecting the above uffuir, rind we think that injustice has been done to M 1 '. Lawrence, both here and in oilier cities. True, in ull difficulties of u conjugal nature, tile sympathies of the public are ut first naturally extended to the wife; but when, on examina tion, it is proved she is manifestly in the wrong, these promptings should give placo to justice and truth. As fur as we nre informed, Mrs. Lawrence left her husband about eight months since, un der the express undi rstunding that she would return to Boston in a lew weeks. At the time sho was expected back, Mr. Lawrence receiv ed u letter informing him that she would not re turn, and that ho must go to Louisville to reside. Various reasons, which it is unnecessary to state, rendered this impossible; and lie accor dingly requested her rolurn to Boston,inaccord- unco with tier promise ut parting. By sig nificant acts, and still moie significant letters, it soon herame manifest that l Ins was not, mid never had berm, intended; mil lifter invitations and rntretuies were neglected and spurned, Mr. Lawrence had recourse to the oily means in his power—which wits to announce his wife’s desertion to the public, nnd thus ud -pt the pre caution which such a stute of things rendered necessary. The vurious tales of jealously nnd difficulties, which htive appeared in th • papers, are either strangely misrepresented or wholly fictitious. If the merits of the case were to be generally known, it is believed there would bo disclosed much ii iwarrunted interference on the part of those whose authority ov-w Mrs I,, terminated with her marriage. Facts could be stated m.d letters published which would astonish the pub- lie, and nt tho same time show with what ob stacles Mr. Liwrence laid to contend and whai trials lie was obliged to endure. It could easily ho shown that Mrs. Lawrence remained in Lou isville without cause that could justify or oven xcuse such n procedure. But all this it is not our purpose ut present to set forth. From what we already kmlw of this affair, wo ure persuaded ihnt Mr. Law renee 1ms nct'-d wisely and ju-tly ; nnd ibis opinion is strength ened by ihe fact, thut his course meets with tho warmest approval of those friends to whom tho circumstances of the case nre familiar. Should ho ever bo compelled to make a public vindirali n of his conduct, we nre confident that the community, one and all, would extend to him tlmt favor and approbation wl uh ho well deserves. His motives in this uffuir have been pure and his course perfectly justifiable; nnd those who a-cribe tohimoth 'r than honorable and upright mentions, must speak either from ignorance or prejudice. We h ive written the above with tho sole object of doing justice to a gentleman, whose co duct has been somewhat blamed, and whog motive* have been much misrepresented. It were well if domestic harmony could ever pre vail in society; hut if disg'ntiniis arise there is no reason why the truth should not he known, whoever many ho tho party thereby affected. Certain it is that if a wife will abandon her husband, in forgetfulness of her marriage vow] she must imt murmur if the fact is mudo public; and animadversions and reproaches come with ill graf-o from ihoso who have been Heated with a lenity which their conduct did not mer it. A. B. C LARGEST CIRCULATION! (Ta?” The Daily Morning News has now a circu lation larger than that of DOTH TDK OTHER DAI LIES TOGETHER, and consequently is the best advertisi.no medium. We state this fact in justice to ourselves and for the benefit of tho advertising public. ZjtF* See first page for our rates of advertising. * a-p' Advertisements should be handed in at an early hour, to insure their appearance in the paper of the next morning. Land Warrants.—The New York Journal of Commerce, of Monday, guys : Land warrnnti are very dull of late. In ad dition to the uncertainty of title without a good city endnisomcHt, tho movements of the lai d reformers have brought these warrants into dis repute, us maty faney Cniigr< ss wi.l soon give the same quantity ot land to unv poor man who will take possession of it. This has led t their depreciation, until $128 has become th' outside price. Any movement on tho pmt of the Government adverse to the plans of the reformers, would materially increase the price Spotted Fiver in Danbury, Conn.—The Tim"# of Danlmrv, Conn., reports a case of mu lignant spotud fever in that town, in the person of Natha i Harris, a young man about 30 years of age. He was taken sick on Monday after- moi nt 5 o’clock, while at work and died on Tuesday at 3 1\ M. Black spots were profusely sprinkled on his face and extie.nir.ies, 10 or 12 hours h. f iredentli.

We see no mention of any enmmuni cn ion from Philosopher Greeley, who, by rights, should have been in attendance. After reading of such proceedings in this enlightened country, the.reader will he reudy to exclaim with Othello— “It is the very error of the moon: She comes more near the earth than she was wont, And makes tcuman mad!” I MAI ft A Turkish. Love Affair.—’the modern laws of Cos discou .teniince, in a very singular man ner, cruelty in females towards their admirers. When Dr. Clark was on that Island, nn in stance occurred in which a fatal termination of 15 a love affair occasioned u trial, for what tho Mohammedan lawyers termed homicide by an intermediate cause. The cause wu* us follows: A you g man, desperately in love with a girl of Stanchio, eagerly sought to marry her, but his proposals were rejected. In consequence of hi< disappointment, he bought some poison and destroved himself. The Turkish police instantly arrested tne father of the young ■woman us the cause, by implication, of the mitti’s death, under the fifth species of homi cide ; he became, thorefore, amenable for this act of suicide. When the cause came before the magistrate, it was urged literally hv the ac cusers tlmt if ho (the accused) had nut laid a daught T, the deceased would not huve fallen in 1 >ve—consequently he would not have died. But lit*, the accused, halo daughter and the deceased bad fallen in love, and had been dis appointed, and Imd died. Upon ull these oc- counts, he was called upon to pay the price fcf the young man’s life, which was fixed at eighty piasters, and svhich was accordingly exacted. The Iron Business —Married on the 20th ulb., near Toms river, N. J-, by Benj. L. Irons, Mr. Joseph Grunt to Mi** Amnndu Iron-{ and ott the 21st, Ut Dover, N. J., by Benj, L.

East Tennessee & Georgia Railroad.— From a letter from a gentleman in East Ten nessee to the Railroad Journal, we do- ive some facts in regard to the present condiiion of this Road, which may not he uninteresting. It ap pears that the Company have already upward* of 81) miles of road graded in a veiy superior manner, most <if it for u double track, and » large and excellent bridge across the Hiwa-sie river, so arranged as to ho used ns a toll bridge as well ns far the Railroad. The timber for the superstructure on upwards «»f 20 mil s has been delivered. Tho total cost ot the road, thus far, is $630,000. The completion and equipment of the Rond to Knoxville, at the Engineer’s estimute, is $1,150,000. Deducting tiom this sum the State subscription, State loan and individual subscriptions, leaves only $656,000 yet to be subscribed for. Hence the entire cost of the roiid, 110 mile*, may be stated at $1,780 000, or about $l(i,000 per mile fora first-class Ruud with u heavy T rail and lully equipped. In regard to the contract with Gen. Green, the writer, after paying a high and merit! d compliment to the energy ami |Jlblio spit it of Gen. G., states that the contract had been re scinded “ by an arrangement mutually satisfac tory to him and tho board of directors.” He also states that he lias realized a very hand some profit by the operation, ami that ho “ re tires from Ilia contract to engage in ether en terprises equally imporiant, tind, it is 10 l e l oped, in their result they mny prove equally profitable to him.’’—A'l'nta I Urlligencer. Steam .flouting Mill.—We ure glad to no tice that the large Steam Flouring Mill which was commenced in this pluce last summer, is progressing rapidly towards completion. A 1 irge portion of the machinery is already put up. An engine of one hundred nnd twenty limse pcwOr, ordered for the mill, wa* expect- oil to be here last Mondny. There will be five run iif stone—four fir wheat and one for corn.

Butman, a Boston Police Officer, who was despatched in pursuit of him at the instnneo of Agents of the Bank in Boston, nt the time of the discovery of th" fraud. Mr. Butman having reached Liverpool previous to tho arrival of the Abe/, repaired to the liltlo port of Fowey, where ho await ed tho schooner, on wiiich Mr. Bulloch was passenger. After the arrest, he awaited the suiting of the Cambriu, in which vessel ho took pnssi g i w iih Mr. Bulloch for New York. On arriving within the jurisdiction of Chatham county, yesterday morning, he in-rendered Mr. B. into the custody of Mr. Sheriff I’rkndeugast, who also cume passen ger in the Cambria. Athkneum —This establishment was opened last night,with the popular drama of DombeySp Son. The principal parts were ably sustained, and the piece was well received by the audi ence. Dombey is to be ropeated to-night with other popular entertainment*. Progress of the Age. We live in an age of progress—in an age of double pressure. Heretofore the work of im provement in government, science, nnd the general affairs of mankind, has been confined to ilie masculine portion of the human family, and wo weie indebted to men for whatever advance ment our race had made in the melioration ol its condition. But a now era has dawned on the world, uud henceforth the women nre to bear an equil share in ihe responsibilities, and burthens of government. The Amazonian nge i* at hand, and >ve are shortly to have female war riors, legislators, und electors, who are to pm- ticipato with us in all our duties und franchise. Do not smile, render, for we assure you it is a fact. The movement is alrea ly on foot., and ii is impossible to say how soon the great revolu tion will be consummated. A,ready a conven tion has been hold at Snlem,Ohio, which wasat- tended by upwurds of five hundred women,and at which speeches were made, resoultions pass ed, and addresses made which threaten the to tal subversion of the present order of things, nnd the utter abrogation of the authority of the masculine sex. This is no witch or ghost storv, but a solemn fact. From among the twenty- two resolutions passed on the occasion, we select the following us indicative of tho spirit and purpose of the meeting. 7. Resolved, That wo, as human beings, are entitled to claim and exercise all the rights that belong by nature to any member of the human family. 8. Resolved, That ull distinctions between men and women in regard to social, literary.' pecuniary, r ligious or political customs uiid insiiiutions, based on a distinction of sex, are contrary to the lows of Nature, unjust, and destructive to ihe policy, elevation, and pro gress in knowledge nnd goodness of the great human family, and ought to be at onee and forayer abolished. 9. Resolved, That tho practice of holding women amenable to a different standard of propriety and morality from that to which men ure held amenable, is unjust and unnatural, and highly di triim-ntal to domestic and sociul viriue and -happiness. 1U. Resolved, That so long ns women op pose the examination of tho position nnd duties of woman in all the various relations of human life, they do but enhance and perpetuate their own degradation, and put tar off the day when social laws and customs shall recognise them ns eqimllv entitled with men to n voice in cre ating and administering the governmental and religious institutions under which they live. The proceedings of the meeting nro said to have been conducted after the musculine fasli- Tlie Newark Spirits. Wo alluded in our paper of yesterdny to the fact that Newnrk, N. J., had recently been vis ited by tho Spiritual Knockers, whose mysteri ous pranks have, for some months past, at tracted so much attention nnd given rise to so much speculation in the Northern and East ern States. The last Newark Advertiser has the following on tho subject: In tho course of some careful inquires, we have become acquainted with most of the in dividual* connecter with the affair; hut have net been aide to detect tho slightest manifesta tion ol art or deception. The person who ha* occupied the house for the |mst two years sus tains un excellent character, being a consistent professing Christian. It is only fair to add, thut no anxiety to “appear in print,” nr to give undue publicity, ha* been shown by any of the person* connected with the affuir. But let u* recur‘to the history of the ease-—obtained from persons huving good repute for soberness arid veracity. The family referred to have been subjected nt intervals to unusual mid unuccoutilnU ■ distur bances during the past two yours, and the head of it, believing i hem to he produced by some nil- ... , - ,, , nn r . lural means has time alter time used his utmost ’ K 1 ~ ,H 1 111 size, i fforts to discover the source or agency. There have been knocks at his chumbei doors when his whole family were together in one room, ami thou ah lie tins ins uotly opened the doors thus assailed, never lound tiny thiigto oecoimt for tile si range noises. He has heard in an ad joining room sounds ns of heavy weignis lulling upon the floor, without slightest indications in the cause. There was, in fact, no room in the hou-e that wnS free from these disturbances though they were more frequent in some than in others. He has heard noises as if u ..envy chain were suddenly thrown to the floor: then again sounds resembling the snapping of a whip, when tie was ccrluin that nothing of the kind was in the vicinity. He tins heard shuf fling, as of half u dozen persons miming over the floors, when the whole family were fast locked in sleep, nnd he has seen Ids rocking- chair, apparently of it* nw i motion, move hack mid forth. He has listened to what seemed to he the low whisper* ol many poisons engag ed in conversation. Hi* wife nnd himself have waked in the night and felt as if something came upon the bed—and they have been arous ed and heard what seemed like the dropping* of water into a Inisin of liquid by their bedside. And thus we might go on—for there have hi en noises of infinite variety. And the per ceptions of those noises hove nut been confin ed to himself and wife. Hi* children,from whom they concealed their thoughts a* to the cause of these commotions, have been terrified by them. Strangers have come into the house, and th mgli the su> ject had never been alluded to until ex- plu niinn was culled fur, no one hus ever been able to solve tho mvstfery. One person who hoarded in the family—a brave man,who, in the language of an inf irmant, “feared neither God nor man,”—utterly rejected the idea of spirit ual agency, und vowed that he would detect and reveal the secret. Bui, though a man of keen perception, lie never succeeded in tiis at tempts ;—and wus especially annoyed a d om- burrussed by strange and terrifying exhibitions of the presence of something that eluded his grasp.

There had been great mortality Oman? the emtio, owii g to tho failure of the liny crop Inst season, and the severity of the Winirr. The ground was covered so deep with snow that the cattle could find no subsistence outside the barns, nnd numbers had perished for want of food. It. was calculated that at the b*-ginnin<* of April there was not more lodder in I’icton county than would keep alive one half of the stock for three week*. A committee, consisting of Martha J. Ti - den, of Akron, (wife of the former member of Congress from that district,) Emily Robinson, of Murlburo’, J. Elizabeth Jones and Jane Tres- cott, of Salem, and Josephine Grilling, of Lit tlefield, nominated the pi rmanei t officers of the convention, which consisted of a President (Miss Betsy M. Bowles, ol Canton being elevat ed to that honorable post,) three Vice Pr c sklents, nnd three Secretaiie*. Eight or ten ladies ad dressed tho Convention and the debating was very spirited, but wo. believe no revolvers or corset-hoard# were drawn on ihe occasion. Be sides the resolutions, un address to the Consti tution Reform Convention of theS.ute was also adopted, praying tho insertion of a provision granting to women “not only the right of suf frage, hut also, all the political arid legal rights that arc guaranteed to men.” Letters were subsequently read from Lucre- lia Mott—whoso reply to Mr. Dana’s Lecture on the Sphere of Woman w as also presented— from Mrs. Lydia Pierson, of Lancaster, Pa.; Mrs. E.

From Honduras.—Capinin Nickerson, of the brig September, arrived at Ruslan jester. day forenoon from Truxi.lo, bringing advices la tho 14th April. The country was unsettled. An insurrection had occurred in the State of Honduras, headed by General Guurdioln, but it was suppressed by the Government. Sig nor Bustello, one of tho insurgents, ha-.l been shot by the Government soldiers. The New York Commercial thinks this is but a new ver sion of an old story. Copt.

Of course all this was no more limn idle talk, resulting from exasperated feelings.
