My Dear tiir: From some charitable neighbors mostly merchants-thc cum of one hundred and sixty-seven ($167) dollars has this morning been collected for the poor, the half of which-say $83 has been entrusted to me for distribution ; and I know not how I can better dispose of it than to en? list your kind agency in the matter. Please at once find some of tho many needy yon know of, and apportion at your discretion. It were unneces? sary to Bay to you, my dear sir, that this contribu? tion is for the needy, no matter whom. Very truly yours, Ac., (Signod) R. M. BUTLER. To Rev. E. J. MEYNABAUE. Messrs. Editors: The foregoing oommunioation Bpeaks for itself. I desire; through the medium of your journal, to acknowledge th 9 receipt of the amount which it enclosed ; and in behalf of thoso who have suffered during the recent rigorous weather, to thank the gentlamon for their timely contribution. Under ordinary circumstances, blazoning the charities of those who are mm d ful of their solemn obligation to God and His poor, would be highly objectionable, {jut at this timo, amid unparal? leled want and distress-affecting moro or lese overy order of society-such free-will offerings in? dicate that the selfishness to which the wreck of j fortune and gloomy forebodings have driven many, has not entirely destroyed that noble sensibility to the demands of charity which once distinguished our peoplo ; and, inasmuch as the example might induce others who havo not yet done their duty in this direction, to do so without further delay, I hopo to be parionod for the publicity which is hereby given to the matter. Permit me to beg that those who aro blessed with comfortable homes, cheerful firesides, and the necessaries-in many instances tho luxuries of b'fe, would remember tho poor, whom we always have with us. And even thoso who have but little to aparo, yet much to be thankful for, may place their thank-offering upon the altai-a reasonable service to Him who has promised to accept in such language as this : "Inasmuch as ye have dono it unto one, of the least of these, my brethren, ye bavo done it unto me." Very respectfully, E. J. MEYNAUDIE. The Di Ole ul fy on Boyce's Wharf. CHARLESTON, S. C., January 7. Editor Daily Hews: Since, by your publication of the Sdinat., you have dono me an injury, will you do me justice by publishing a correct state? ment of tho difficulty on Boyce's Wharf? On the night of tho 1st inst. I was sent on duty on that post at 7 P. M. About half-past 9 P. M., being on the north wharf, I heard a noiso, and saw mon run? ning down from East Bivy toward a vessel lying at the south wharf. 1 immediately started bvor to ascertain what waa the matter. I met a man who told mo he was Captain Sandy, of tho brig Che buctoo, and that his first mate had been badly beaten on East Bay, but that all were aboard now, and there should be no moro difficulty. Whilst talking with the Captain, I heard tho cry pf "Man overboard I" Both of us ran to the brig and found the mate and another man in the water, both of | whom wo succeeded in rescuing. After taking them on board and caring for them, the Captain Bent for a bottle of brandy and poured ont some in a cup, which ho drank ; he then poured moro and offered mo. abont one-fourth of which I drank. I then bade him good night, and started out of his cabin. At tho nead of the ladder leading to the deck I saw a man standing with, as I supposed, a knife in one hand ana a steel for sharpening knives in tho other. As I advanced he said : "Damn and buggor > our oyes. You tried to drown two of our men, and now want to take thc rest of us away, do you?" A man standing near tho ladder said: "No, ho helped save 'om." This did not seem to satisfy the man above, who advanced, saying, "Damn and bugger your eyes, PU have satisfac ti on ont of you." I was alone, and all hands on board wore 'drunk, and had just been in a row. What was I to do ? I warned the man to get ont of the way and let me pass, which ho refused, cursing and swearing he d have his satisfaction out of me. I drew my revolver, and, as soon as I did it, my arm was caught by thc man nearest me. Turning my hand, I fired at him, but missed him; then covering tho man in front of me, who waa still disputing my passago out, I fired, the bau, I think, taking effect in the face; he fell, and I started up, firing ono other shot up the ladder, not knowing but there might be others there. On reaching the deck I attempted to rogain the wharf, but missed my footing and foll into the dock, ris? ing on tho opposite sido of tho vessel, with my back to her. Not knowing exactly my position, and seeing a vessel ahead of mo, I swam to her, but aaw no one to help mo. Hear ng a noise be? hind mo, I turned, and saw a light on another ves? sel, and swam for uer. At her stern I discovered a rope, but too high to reach. I attempted to catch it but failed, and sank. As I rose I took hold of tho rudder, when I heard some one say : "Another man overboard I" I can toll very little after this.

Letter from Washington. [SPECIAL COBBE8PONDENOE OP THE DAXL7 KEW9.] WASHINOTON, January 5.-Well, Cougress has "retnrned to its mutton," since the date of my last, and already begins to indicate that something is upon the tapis, on t-h eroding all their foi mer radi? cal legislation, and dcstmod in some way to star? tle the country. The idea is evidently to forestall tho rising of a new and embarrassing issue, and by extreme measures to put it away altogether. The issuo that threatens is based upon the Con? stitutional Amendment, and it involves the dis? agreeable necessity of Congress declaring definite? ly whether the adoption of that amendment shall be the ultimatium to he rewarded in the South by admission to representation, or that there aro more and undetermined penances to be inflicted. It is to deliberate upon this very question that the Republicans have called a caucus m the Repr?sen? t?t i ve Chamber to-night. One of tho policies then to he urged is, that the Reconstruction Committee be privately instructed to report that in the senso of this Congress no exclu led State shall have a color of right to admission that has not undergone a thorough revision of the governmental system established by President Johnson. Before this letter roaches you I suppose the project of impeaching the Executive will be initi? ated. At all events, Monday is the day named for the introduction of tho resolution; and, unless tho councils of to-night's caucus prevail against it, it is certain to transpire. The prime mover in the promises is a hair-brained Radical from an Ohio district, named Ashley. He is utterly without conception of the shock and nervousness he is about to impose upon the people and commerce of the whole country, and his zeal in the matter is solely actuated by a desire for notoriety. He boasts continually that, on a careful canvass, he finds he can pass the resolution in question, but it is barely possible that he mistakes in his reckon? ing of the Radical hosts..for I am apprised that a largo number of Bepubncans go into tbe caucus to-night determined to fight the impeachment down, as a projqct ruinous to their party, and in? expedient under the present unsetUement of trade. So then, if the telegraph apprises yon, before the reception of this, that the proposition for impeach? ment; has carried, you will know that that inquisi? tion, destined to bo so bootless, was not instituted without a division and demurrer in the Radical ranks. Thad. Stevens, it will be observed, seized the first availablo moment in the resumption of Congress to obtain tho floor, and deliver a phillipic against the late decision of the Snprome Court, denying the constitutionality of military commissions in districts whore the civil tribunals are in full opera? tion. As the decision was unanimous, it will scarcely be very pleasant for that violent Radical, Mr. Chief Justico Chase, to hoar from tho great expounder of his party that he concurred m "a decision not leas Lufa moue than the Dred Scott de? cision, and nearly as dangerous to tho liberties of the people." Binco tho delivery of this speech Ste? vens has thought better of it, and ho still withholds it from tho official publication for revision, fear? ing that ita extreme violence may hurt his chances for the Pennsylvania Senatorahip. Por the latter distinction he has very little show. . Cameron,- bis principal competitor, ia spending money like water through both honses of tho Legislature, and will undoubtedly carry the day. Old Thad.?atnrta for Harrisburg on Monday, to personally supervise his own forces in the approaching election. The President, during theae times, ?B in a very ' complacent condition, despite the proximity of tho : enemy who assail him "at the other end of tho Avenue," and the menace of impeachment, of which he is fully apprised. An impression that it ' requires a two-thirds vote of tho House to preter I articles of impeachment, is very generally preva- - lent, but I finu, looking at the Constitution, that . such is not the case... If tho resolution be offered ' at a time when ? it must take precedence of the ' regular order of business, it then requires a two- 1 thirds vote to suspend tho rulos and admit of its 1 introduction ; bat a majority of ono is sufficient to ? its passage. Those Radical Congressmen who, in ! stumping their districts last fall, proclaimed with so mach thunder from the stamp that Androw Johnson would yet be brought as a culprit before the bar of tho Senate, to answer and dofond tho indictment of the lower House, reckoned strangely in ignorance of the law. The Constitution ia wholly silent on this point, about compelling the presence of the party against whom trial by impeachment ia pending. There havo never boon but two such trials in the history of tho Govornmont-ono in the time of Jackson's Administration, and the last in the case of United States Judge Humphries, of Tennessee, impeached during the late war. Nei thor of these individuals appeared, nor could their bodies have been brought into Court. The 8orgoant-at-Arms that summons Andrew Johnson to present himself beforo the impending Congressional Inquisition, will learn of these pre? cedents and privileges with a promptitude that cannot fail to suggest an imuediato withdrawal from benoath tho Executive rc-of. With Congress resolved into a Court of Impeachment, tho House becomos tho Grand Jury, finding the indictment and conducting the prosecution, the Senate acting a? the Jury in the case. In all instances save tho trial of the Exocutivo, tho Yicc-Proeidant presides over the tribunal, but the latter oxcoptiou pro? scribes that tho Chief Justice shall occupy that position. Generally, tho House will olect throe members of thoir own Judiciary Committee to con? duct the prosecution, and the defenco may appear by counsel and witness almost without limit. Thc trial closed, it takes two-thirds of the Senators to find a verdict of guilty, each .Senator, in responso to tho call of his name, having to step forward to the bar of the Chamber and exclaim, "guilty" or "not guilty," as the case may bo. Wita the patty impeached, tho Constitution only prescribes removal from office and a disability to evor hold'place of trust or confidence under the Government again. And this proceeding, tho Con? stitution avers, shall not prevent the arraignment of the same porty ia any court of justice having jurisdiction of tho case on tho same charge or serios of charges preferred in tho iniictmcnt upon which ho was impeached. The snow and tho sleighing with which Washing? ton was gifted on New Yoar's held on amazingly, until within the last forty-eight hours, whon a thaw proved too muoh for it. There is beginning to be a faint flicker among tho Capital's upper-ton doin, I otokening tho initiation of tho ."gaieties of the season." lue regular winter receptions at the White Houso will hogin within a fortnight, and following in the same train will come tho enter? tainments of his Cabinot Ministers. It is probable that to Gonoral and Mrs. Grant mil bolong the fe? licity of opening the season. They have announced a series of three receptions for the winter; tho first to be given on tho 9th of the present month. Though General Butler is in town, it is probablo that he will escape the receipt of an invitation. About thia timo last year, and just after tho pro? mulgation of Goueral Grant's famous report, in which he characterized Butler as being "liermetl ccUly sealed" with hie command at Bermuda Hun? dred, during some portion of the last eighteon months of the war, an invitation was sent Butler to attend ono of Grant's receptions. Theiraaciblo "Beast" immediately returned a note that ho would tolerato no further intercourse with oithor Grant or his family. The latter, in this year's fes? tivities, will no doubt concede that favor. VIDES. Our New York Letter. [VBOM ODE SPECIAL COEltBSPONDENT. ] NEW YOEE, Januar)- 4.-The annual report of the Police Board, just handed in, shows that there has been an alarming increase in tho number of arrests for crimes and other misdemeanors in this city. The averago oxceeds that of the paat sevou years by eleven thousand, but thc number of those whose business consists in tho cutting of throats, robbery on the highway, arson, burglary, and tho liko, ie thirty per cent, larger than before; thal is to say, small fry criminals havo beon doing a good business, but the large dealers havo flourished in a most extraordinary manner. New York city to? day puts both Sodom and Gomorrah in tho shade, and if it advances in crime as it has boen advanc? ing for several years past, in ten years hence it will bc as ordinary an occurrence for a man to cut a friend's throat as his acquaintance. It is rumored hero, and tho report is generally behoved, that Ball, Black & Co. havo failed for two millions and a -half.. If this be true thoro is no doubt but that other failures vrill follow, for when tho middle pin falls, or ono of tho middle pina, it seldom falls alone, and Ball, Black & Co. was a very important pin in tho mercantile bowling alloy. Mon who oro better acquainted with business mat tore than your correspondent-aud Heaven help thoao who aro not-toll mo that merchants have imported too heavily, that trade is exceedingly dull, and that it would not surprise them to sec a financial crash ero long. They predict that several large houses will "go up," and that gold1 will then follow suit, and go up in a difforent acceptation of the phrase. You noed not be alarmed, however, for I am willing still to roceive my pay in green? backs without discount. In accordance with an Act or tho Legislature empowering the Street Commissioners to contract for thc ropairing of Broadway from tho Battery to Fourteenth street, tho fat job has boen given to ono Charles Guidoi, who undertakes to accomplish it for threo hundred and acventy-two thousand dollars. Tho street will bo repaved with granite blockB, threo and a half to four inches wido, eight, to twelve inches long, and nine inches deop, to bc set not diagonally, as at present, but at right an? gles with the sidewalks, as it is said that by this arrangement there will bo a surer foothold for horses and lesa supping. Tho work will be begun on the first of next April, and will bc completed in eighteen months from that time. Thoro Richmonds are in tho field as candidates for United States Senator, tho Richard, Horace Greole)', being out of thc lists. Ira Harris, thc present incurabont, wishes to retain his position. Roscoe Conkling prefers it foi* himself, whilst thc friends of Noah Davis think that ho ia thc host man of the three. It matters very little to your readers or mvself which of the three Bichmonds comes out victorious, I tbprefore dismiss the sub? ject. The gambling mania has even taken possession of tho few Chinamen who are in this city-even the Chineso indulge in faro ; they not only gamble but they cheat-not only cheat but steal. A Chinaman named Hong playea faro with a Chinaman named Hung, who ought to bo hanged, and tho latter finding that he could not win Hong's money fast enough, laid violent hands upon Ins pile of green? backs and fled in haste, richer b? three hundred and fifty dollars than ero he betook himself to flight. Hong has brought suit for recovery, and Hung is now in custody. There has been pretty good sleighing here for the past three days, but tho livery stable keepers I charge such exorbitant prices that none bat tho rich can take a hired slide; a man named King thought this a hard case, and so, yesterday, see? ing an empty sleigh standing most temptingly in the street ne got in and treated himself to a ride. A gentleman named Lean, to whom the sleigh be? longs, takes exception at the proceeding and pro? secutes lung," whereupon the case comes up in court and the Herald facetiously calls it a King Lean affair. i The jury of inquest held over the body of the murdered shoemaker have rendered their verdict, in which Uley find "that the deceased came to his death by a stab wound at the hands of Charles Manuel (colored), alias "Bummer Charley," at No. 46 Thompson street, on the 29th day of December, 1866, and they find Thomas Cook accessory before the fact" Tho Board of Health reports that many of tho tenement houses in this city are in such a filthy condition as to bo uninhabitable, and order that their condition be imroediately improved. The Board are much alarmed abont the cholera, which is to visit us next summer, and are very properly taking time by the forelock. A man who stole a double-barreled gun on New Year's night, when arrested and held to answer, answered frankly that he did steal the gun, bat was drunk at the* time; that he had put an enemy into his month to make him steal away a gun, and should be excused. The magistrate failed to see the thing in that light, and did not discharge either the man or gun. It appears that there was much method in tne drunken man's madness, as he had pawned the gun which he had stolen-thus did he begin the year. There was quito an excitement in Wall street yesterday, caused by a rumor that the President was abont to be impeached The gold and stock operators were at a loss what course to pursue, s whether to believe the report and buy, whether to disbelieve it and sell "short" to those who did. if ' any there were, or whether to keep quiet till the * news should be confirmed or ita falsity exposed. I The majority of them concluded to keep quiet, and so gold and stocks kept quiet likewise, and few, if ; any,. lost or made anything out of the canard. Wero the President to bo impeached, gold would ? riso so rapidly and BO high that we would believe that the old Confederate tm CB had come upon us again.. There is no danger of this, for the Badi- 1 cala, as bad as they are, will not risk to take such ! a dangerous stop. < A private party of gentlemen, who had made ? some little bets on the yacht race, met, a few even- . inge ago, to settle up and in said settling np the comfortable little sum of one hundred and ninety- 1 five, thousand dollars was handed over to those < who had backed their judgment on the Henrietta. ? Who will contend that there is no royal road to , wealth ? Betting large amounts on the Henrietta was certainly a very royal road indeed.

From a lengtny article in the World, of Satur? day, wo make the following synopsis : In 1843, a Dumber of young Jewish mechanics from Bavaria, "educated, who possessed a clear perception in. j religions matters," felt dissatisfied with tho care- < less and mechanical performances of Divine sar- < vice then in vogue, and they resolved to effect a reform. Dr. LUDWIG MEBZBACHEB, of Furth, came to New York abont that time, and built up the first congregation, corner of Grand and Clinton streets, organized in 1845, In 1847, tho congregation built a synagogue in Christie street: an organ was pro? cured. '1 ho biennial cycle or the reading of the law, the memorial service of departed souls on thc day of atonement, and the confirmation of boya and girls, were gradually introduced. In1848 an elementary school was established. In 1854 a re- - ligious scho..l was opened, the days of attend? ance being tho Sabbath and Sunday. Tho accom- 1 modations soon bocoming inadequate, tho syna? ' gogue lu Christie street was sold, and a commodi- i ons church in Twelfth street purchased and chang? ed to a synagogue. Tho ladies' gallery was now - removed; in its place family pews wore con? structed. In 1864 a committee was appointed to revise the old Liturgy, and on Passover, m March, 1865, Divine service was hold for the first time ac ? cording to tho form of the new prayer book. In ! June, 1865, the uso of the "scarf," and in Sep- < tomber following, tho celebration of the second days of all Jewish festivals wero abolished. Dr. MEBZBACHEB died October 1,1865, and Dr. ADLER. tho proseut rector, was appointed his successor. In May, 1865, a law was passed ordaining the at- ' terdnnco of Divine sorvica with uncovered heads. Tho marriage ceremony and funeral service were ?ut into a form Bruted to the spirit of the age. In lecomber, 1835, they protested against the de? cision of an assembly of rabbis, who declared that tho Talmud was the lawful and binding interpre? tation of tho Bible. In 1860 they issued a protest against the endeavors of a number of orthodox congregations, who wished to establish a head or central authority for all America, to give decisions upon all matters concerning Jewish Divine sorvice and religious observances, During the past year this congregation contrib? uted to tho assistance of the needy Jows in Jeru? salem $1,326, and to thc Jewish Orphan, Asylum in Now York, $17,000. It founded the Emanu-El The? ological Seminary. At Passover, it presented to its Rabbi $10,000, and six months latex $3000 to itu Reader. Tho new Templo, now in course of erec? tion corner of 5th avenue and 43d street, will cost some $600,000. The site alone cost $106,750. This synagogue is to bo in tho Moorish stylo, and prob? ably will be the handsomest house of worship ir. America. There aro now five congregations that mako use of tho now liturgy, viz : tho reformed Jews in Al? bany, San Francisco, Buffalo, Jackson, Michigan, and the Portuguese Reformers in Curacoa, Dutch West Indies. There is a groat wont felt by both orthodox and reformed congregations in this country for English preachers-that is, learned and efficient men who must be able to express themselves with facility and elegance in tho En? glish language; and, as these are very difficult to procuro, Hebrew oollegoyare now hoing establish? ed by both parties in America, JOT the express pur? pose of educating young men for the ministry. Both branches of Judaism support tho Hebrew institutions of Now York. The Jowish Orphan Asylum derives annually $40,000, and the Jewish Hospital $10,000 from tao several congregations. & Movements in tho direction of reform are not of recent date. ' There have boon orthodox and hete? rodox in tho Jewish fold for centuries, just as those divisions are formed in the adherents of every other creed; but there never has boen any broad concert of action in this field. Every ? individual congregation has had to work ont the problem for iteclf. Dr. STEIN, in Frankfort, twenty-five years ago, was quito up to whero tho New York Reform? ers are to-day, bnt there being no national Jenish ecclesiastical" organization auywhore now, these individual efforte nevor extend beyond the circle of the immediate vicinage of tho actor. To the New York congregation, we think, belongs tho credit of having inaugurated tho reform move? ment on a larger scale, and on amore thorough and systematic Basia than was ever done before else? where. _ Immigration in 1860. ? Tho fallowing article, which presente copious information on this subject, wo abridge from tho New York Staats Zeitung, the leading German or? gan in tho United States. The number of emigrants who landed in the several ports of the United State3 during the year of 1866 was about threo h un dr od thousand. Far, the greater number of these landed in New York. New Orleans and Galveston had more than their usual proportion. Immigration during the past yoar has been greater than at any period since 1851, '52 and '58. At. that time it was so large, owiDg to tho famine in Ireland and its conse? quences, just as the events following the revolu? tions of 1818 and '49 in Germany had led to a large tide of emigration rr#m that quarter.. Usually the number of Irish emigrants to the United States is greater than that of tho Germans. This year, however, the latter fully oquaUed tho number cf the formor, if they did not tronscond it. For the principal reason of this result we must look to the late war in Germany, although the efforts of the Southern States to obtain German labor doubtless had its influence. In all probability the Gorman immigration will bo still greater in 3867, because tbero will probably be greater exertions made by many of these said States, and there will be, more? over, a largo numbor of tho people of Saxony, Hanover, Hesse, Nassau, and South Germany, who will resolve on emigration, becauso they like not the new order of things, or because they have no exooctation of a botter futuro, or of a lasting peace. That this tido of immigration s could be directed to thc proper channels-in other words, to provide thc most advantageous pisces for tho arriving immigrants-is a task, the successful execution of which ia not only for tho beuefit of the immigrant, but has a much greater significance, in BO far aa it influences the equable development of our na? tional resources. A wostern paper has some very sensible remarks, addressed to the laboring classes, in regard to the groat and constantly increasing disposition to fivo in large cities. It oxhorts tho laborers to avoid this, and to ?eek employment in the country. It has boon demonstrated that not less than twenty-five per cent, of tho immigrants landing in New York, endeavor to make that city their home, and only choose or Beek another place of abodo when compelled by circumstances. This would give New York an annual increase, from this source alone, of seventy-five thousand, which, with tho natural growth of population, and the constant additions mado to it fiom every part of tho Uuion, is a much greater rato of incrcaso than at all warranted by tho yearly incrcaso and development of tho business of the city ; and the necessary coneeqnonco must be that a certnin part of this population must be without employment, suffer want, and not unfrcqucntlv fall into vice, and become guilty of clime. This is tho case, to a greater or less extent, with all the largo cities of the Union. The best means of preventing an undue accumulation of labor in thc large cities, ia for each State or Territory, in need of fcuch labor, to have a reliable agent in New York, who should always bo kept informed of tho special wants of every town and county he represents, and whose duty it chal? be to endeavor to procure the desired foroe.
