We regret very much to sec our congre gations at the various churches in town so small, and so little interest in the Sun day-schools manifested.

(Front 'mr regular correspondent.) New Youk, January 14, 1881. To visit New York and not take a lo- k at the "bulls nndhsuiV would be to mils slicing one of the most csrioiis apret-icles t<> bo witnessed daily in this great cily, and that tact oectiring to me. u few days since, while w-ilking along the great money center to its western termination nl Trinity church, and knowing that the interesting specimens yf animated nature mentioned above, did congregate in a bail ling neir that historic cdifico, 1 ‘‘drilled in' to sec the sight. Present ing myself at th® main entrance I was politely informed that none but the ini tinted could enter thero, uud directed to a side entrance, on Wall street, which led to a gallery over the "arena,” from which the public cun look with safety upon th* .-trugglo b. l#w. And such a struggle! At lli* first til list the scene convoys to the mind the impression that such a tu mult could only bo raise I by turning in to flio ‘‘arena" two or three hundred lu natics of t lie most violent type. The ?o c'feration and uproar was delening The Hccue reviewed from the gallery presents a phase of human character, which, with clo-e ob-srvation and study, might do velop a principle in the moral compoai lion of man as yet unknown. Why sane men should adopt the style and manner of Id .atics to effect any object, to ad- nanco any interest known to civilization, is as difficult to comprehend as any prob lem the solution of which lias baffled the human mind from the creation of the world. The Hudson River Tunnel is slowly dragging along, and they promise to fin ish it, iikthreo years. It is twenty feet under the clay bottom of the ruer, and encounters no rocks till nearly at the New York shore. The workmen aro kept alive on compressed air, which they like better than common air. Only four to fiv® feet ot tunn.el are mad® every day, working gangs of twenty-five men, and woiking all night. It now appears to he the case that tm - prisonment for debt is the normal condi tion ot everybody trespassing on the Is land of New York. It seems that a law smuggled through the .Legislature some time ago exempting no property from levy or sale under an execution for work, labor, or serrico performed by a female employo, aud in case the judgment is not paid a further execution shall be issued against the body that day, and lie shall be lodge<|pn jail for a period of fifteen days. Domestic servanos cannot recover under this law, because they got hoard; but femal® servants not boarded can im prison. Twenty-six women have brought suit against a manufacturer of campaign goods, and, therefore, he must go to jail more thun one year or pay up. I am told that there has been ®ne man in th® Debtor's jail of New York for thirty- three years. The people, as a goneral rule, are unaware of this canditiou of things, and it is now militating against '•he inb;r. its of this city, particularly of t m hold < hero.

August. 11. 11. Warien thus addresses out our comet stokers; Learning that the Imperial Academy of Sciencei ol Vienna has withdrawn its offer of a gold medal valued at $00 for the discovery of comets, and being desirous that the search lor them should not be abandoned, I Ik re by offei for evary such discovery, sub ject to the conditions which follow the sum of $200 in gold as a prize, lo be known as the Wurner Safa Remedy Prize. Condition 1.—The comet must be unexpected and telescopic, excepting the comet of 1812, which is expected to reappear during the com nig year. Condition 2—The first discovery must be male in the Uhited or Can® a da. Condition J.—Immediate notifioa® tion by tehgrnph must he made to lb ol. Lewis Swiff, of Rochester Di rector ol the Wurner Observatory who will cause the same to be cubled to Europe, uud will also send notill- cation to astronomers in this coun try, by special circular or associated press dispatches. Condition 4.—The Jelegram mujt give the time of discovery, the posi tion, direction and daily rate of motion with sufficient exactness to enable at least one astronomer tQ find it. Condition 5.—In the event of nuy dispute which may arise r* garding priority of claim or noe-confortnity with the conditions named, th<**lecis- ion shall bo referred to Prof. Asaph Hall, of the Naval Observatory, Washington, l). C., and Prof. C. A. Youdg, of Pjinceton Observatory^ and their decision shall be final. The above offer unless previously renewed, will expire Jannarylst 18* 82. H. H. Warner.
