At a ruent meeting J deputation was received from the Coopers' Philanthropic Society, who aro m need of assistance in cons?quence of the slackness o? trade. The Piesidt-nt uf the Society stated that it numbered 1000 members, of whom 200 were out of employment, and a large proportion of thc re? aiainder were only partially employed. Dining the past eighteen months ?5000 bad been paid io needy members, and as they had only i'70O or x300 funds, and were distributing ?100 a week, they asked the Conned to give them credentials to tue trades with the view 6f getting pecuniary aid. The Council refused to accede to the request, ou the ground that the embarrassment of the coopers was not caused by a dispute betweeu labor and capital. Had they been on a strike rebel would I have been forthcoming. . J LE i i r u FROM XKAV YORK. IFK.'II OCR SPECIAL ( ORRI?SPONDKXT. J NEW YORK, October 4, 1867, fuere is never smoke without tire. Sometime there is but little fire-but a spark- sometimes a medium supply of ignited oxygen, and again a large blaze-but there is always dre. The "?U dit" reported in u recen' letter in relation to Mrs. LINCOLN'S incognito visit to tins city on a clothing and jewelry Kelling expedition, ts no longer simply an "on dit." It is a tact-an established fact, a no? torious fact, a disgraceful reality-tis true, 'tis pity, and pity 'tis,. 'tis true. Mrs. CLAREE has thrown off her disguise, aud Mrs. LINCOLN ap? pears uporf the stage. Mrs. AFB'.?AM LINCOLN, the widow of tho once revored and beloved Chief, Magistrate of the Republic, and martyr to a cause which people seem to care about no longer -for ABRAHAM LINCOLN WAS as President JOHNSON IS a champion of the Union as it was and ought ti be, but is no more, in exposing for sale valuabk' articles; many of which were presented lo lu i by politicians and office-seekers who were once for sale themselves, and whoso eharaclers (?) will De exposed along with their gilts, Mrs. LINCOLN is at last having sonto satisfaction in avenging herself upon these Miniuior friends, from whose abandonment in the day of lier adversity .-he rinds it neceeaaiy ti? dispose nf a large portion of her winter gainicnts. Many ot these articles aro of tho finest texture and must costly material. Among them we lind, or we may find by looking into the establishment at No. 609 Broad? way, a black centre camel's hair shawl that cost fifteen hundred dollars, a white centre ditto valued at twelve hundred ; a Russian salle cape for fifteen hundred ; ? Russian salle boa at twelve (of course hundred is understood) ; a white point lace shawl for two, and a dress of the same material (cot made up) for four ; but, hereafter, ''two" and "four" wo must- understand the word thousand iustead of hundred. The broker in whose hands the articles have been deposited values the entire lot at 124,000, but they probably cost nearly double that amount. The distinguished ladv whoae wardrobe ia thus publicly exposed fur sale, and whose husband once held the highest post of honor in the nation's gift, has naught left besides with which to support her? self and family but seventeen hundred dollars, the interest of the twenty-five thousand presented to her by Congress, which ought to have been and would have been one hundred thousand, had not a number of Republicans, who claimed to represent the party of - which Mr. Ln? oi.s was the leader, voted against the amendment. I should add, how? ever, what these grateful men may have taken into consideration, that Mrs. LINCOLN has also an ?owe of three hundred dollars ! ! ! the proceeds of J Ihe rental ot ' honest Old ABE'S" house in Spring ?eld. Now, that the entire details ot this disgraceful business havefouud their way into the newspapers, A'here even appears the coi t espondeuce between Mrs. LINCOLN and her broker, it is probable that the effects will be disposed of in the most effective manner, that is to say, at public auction, and as this will be a novel auction, a sensational auction. i-, well DO matter for the other adjective, suf? fice it to say, that the word omitted brings to mind "The Devil's Auction" which I saw last night at Bauvard's Museum. The newspapers have for many weeks back Seemed with lengthy notices and still more lengthy idvertisements, in whioh it waa claimed that the .rreat rival of the Black Crook would prove to be a sensation moro potent than the first, wherefore last night the bouso was crowded from parquette S to dome with those wi- > had seen the Black Crook g i dozen times or more, and who, having come to 1 tho infernal auction with their expectations raised, 1 aageriy awaited the raising of the curtain. The sceneiy in the Devil's Auction, which name is given to the piece on account of cert air. magii pills, und so forth, which the Devil sells to a man. who afterwari plays the Bevil throughout the piece.. Iii?- scenery, I nay, in magnificent, mo gorgeous, but yet inferior to that in the rival spec? tacle. The inebriation scene in the abode of Back? us is, however, superlatively grand. Rows of love? ly women, bearing golden clusters of grape* arise before our dazzkd view and ascend, but to give place to others, at whoae superior loveliness wc gaze with a tantalizing feeling, for we see these scantily attired forms through a shower ol' wine that seems, as it were, to endeavor in vain ti drown this vision of beauty aud shut it out from uur enraptured si.c;ht. lu many respects, tho Devil's Auction ia more attractive than the Black Crook; the corps ile bal 'el is composed of wometi a thousand times hand? somer, both m terni und feature, than those Ihe pieco which has been run for so long a time, md besides this, we have in the former a much better opportunity to atudv the anatomy of the i-unan frame. What little dress is worn m the Devil's Auction, is beyond all doubt much hand? somer than tho Black Crook costume. Two of the most beautiful girls whom Moultrie or any one sise has ever beheld, appear as horses, (hat is to wy, horses' heads cover their own, yet do not con seal them, and an equine narrative follows etch as she walks. The balance of the costume is entirely in the circus et\ le, in the tigbtoat acception of the term. These horse ladies each rejoices in the pos session of a form where every god does seem to set his seal to give the world assurance ol' a per? fect model of a woman. Some portions of the piece are exceedingly lu dierous and amusing. Rosemary, H little French peasant, loves no man, Lut is exceedingly fond of a pet donkev; wherefore on ono occasion .she ex? claims, "Oh, that you were a man I" when, pres? to ! the'donkey is transformed into human ahape, still, however, retaining the ears and narrative of the donkey. The donkey man makes love tu Rosemary, who, however, unlike many young women who lovo bipedal asses, rejects his suit with scorn; when, presto! again, the ears and narrative disappear, and then 'tis a different tale -Rosemary now makes love to the young man. who, however, refuses her; wherefore, to prove that he is au ass for so doing, she contrives to transform him again in the semi-donkey ?tate. In thc sequel, of course the woiuau mairies the ass. The "Devil's Auction" is a success, and, in fact a successor that the "Black Crook" has much cause to fear, the more 90 as Bauvard's was crowd? ed last night with au audieuce made up of as good classes of society as visit a;.y of the first of the metropolitan theatres. A society has been recently organized here whose object is to suppress gambling, and some or the members got to wors last night in fine style by escorting a squad of policemen into the well known den at the corner of Ann and Nassau streets, where twenty of the disciples of the Egyp? tian king were arrested, to be held ip durance vie. It is yet to be proven whether an;. 01 the members of this moral and mind-somi-ont-elses business association know aught ir. relation to the doings in ten handsome establishments, one in Twenty fourth stre'it and one in Broadway, near Eighth or whether they have ever heard of such men as the Hen. JOHN MORRISSEY and JOHN C. BEENAN the dealers-in checLs. He who walketh through the streets ol .'iew Yolk in the small houis ol the morning, stiould beware of having about bis person a huge aiiir.uiit of money, for truly this is walkin? in the paths of ! the untighteous. A California theatre u: mager thouffht not so, but walked through Bi oadway yesterday morning in the night, or yesterday night in the morning, with no fear 111 his soul, and with four thousand dollars in his pocket. Fortu? nately, however, there waa a friend with hun who loved to be up before the sim and therefore bsd not gone to bed at all. Tho two friendo were at tacked at the corner of Eighth atieet iwheie had they been ) ? by a couple of men who were in search of a royal road to fortune but the California man was paiae, und so was bia friend, and the hatti was derided 111 their favor. I have no particular news to give as regarda commercial and financial matters, oAvtvt that Moultrie has sold out his mammoth establishment and has retired to give some one else a chance to make a fortune. Duce ayain, therefore, I am nothing ui-ue than MOULTRIE. A ?oman went into St. Josephs ( lunch, in Philadelphia, tho other day, and when the de? votees had left the place she stepped up to the altar rails, passed through thc sanctuary gate, and grasped a silver censer standing to the right of the altar upon one of rhe tables upon which ia placed the wine aud .rater. She was noticed, how? ever, by the sexton, but she prostrated hersell and began to pray again. The seTtc-n called a patrol? man, who prevented any more/praying on her part, and took her to the station. ' i \ \ " AtVTI-STAT LAW" AND GERER AL I DER No. 10. To the Kdiiurot ".c Charteslon Daily Kerns: I have conclnsircly shown iu my former arti? I think, that tbe assertions of '.Anti-Stay Li that the Stay Law of force in South Carolin: the " cause ol'capital being alu of seeking inv mema in this State," and that " but for it all, local debt would have been nettled," aro wit unfounded, and ate based on facts which exist i in his imagination. And in reply, I have sin " the real cause of capital being shy of seeking vestments" here, and have also traced the f tliat thc indebtedness of the country waa not moved during the wer, to its tine cause. 11 propose to notico a few other points which y Correspondent han made, and then to dismiss subject. lu his second communication, he again dw upon what lu- calls " the persistent policy o? j] ci animation,' which, according to his views,! fatally infected the people ol- titi? State, and plores its consequence,-"a lou^ credit syst which hus luoiight the llayue and Meeting str jobbing trade to ruin; plunged our planters t their unfortunate bul always credulous victin the factors, iu bankruptcy," Ac. Is th? "Haytie and Meetingslreet jobbing tau LhJ only business that hus suffered and ie n prostrated ? Is tho ease of jobbing merchants exception? Is this not a eommon calamity whi has befallen the country ? Or docs bc think tl tho ' jobbing trade" stands upon grounds of poe liar favor, and that.those engaged in it who ha lind ruin brought upon them, aro the only jierao in the State who deserve sympathy and are en tied to bewail their misfortunes ? I beg pardo tie dues not mention the poor factors in the sat ?onnection, that guileless class of the enmmerc ;ommnnity who have been the simple, " alwa .redulous victims" of the cunning and (rand .he cool and calculating planter! Well, this something new, and. to use a slang phrase, " tl a rich :" factors " victims*' of planters ! ! lour correspondent's imagination muai ha j?cii unduly excited by reading OVID'S lie tami moses. He has transformed the dors into t lite, and made a lamb of the wolf. If it wore n idienknw, this charge would be scandal. T niter, however, may console himself with the i lection that this accusation against the plante viii only have the effect to excite a smile wherev t is read. Again, "Anti-Stay Law"says, wheu then (mea ng debtors.) "Acts" aie declared unconslitution he) crowd themselves on the military, and ha lone bj ''order that which the Court saja nonti." The Acts of the Legislature to which he refe ire, it will be observed, characterized by him i he "Acts" of debtors. Now, this ia going very fa mich farther, 1 contend, than the history of lh aw authorizes one to go. lt. was. as is we nowti, passed in 13til, without opposition, or tl; aintost possible,-in the popular branch ot the Lei stature, and bc a largo majority in tho Senate. 1 ommou consent it remained on the statute boc intil the session ol lSoo, when its passage was n isled tor the first time after its original euac nent. In the meantime it had received the sam ion of the Reconstruction Convention in Septen er, 1B05. It had been acquiesced in by the pet ile, and by all departments of the Government unng all this time. In May, 1SGG. a case wa rougbt up from Charleston to tho Court of Error 3r the express purpose of testiug its constitu? ion btv. The case originat?"J iu a rule against th iheriff of Cbarlestou, and was decided without ai ument in favor of the law. The Court decide* he Act to be in conflict with the Constitution o he United States, so tar ab it was intended ti pply to contracts made before its passage. Bu he Court did not pass upon the questiou o .a expediency, that was not the pom resented tor adjudication. If it had been lie decision might have been different. Thc nutt wus confined in u> deliberations to Hu aked question thai wu? do llied. That questiot ari not non discussing; ii is simply the que.?. ion of expediency thal 1 have been considering; hellier General Orders No. 10 have been the ause of the evil-, which your correspondent has ttribnted to them. To bring reproach and con elliot upon those orders, he attempts to produce he impression that they ari the result ol the ol iris of debtors only, who, [rom interested mo ives, have pressed them upon the military au borities after the courts had decided Ute princi il" which they involved tob.- wrong. Ho would iure your readers boliovf that the Legislature wa^ ither composed of, ot' was controlled bc, "debt* rs" during Hiv apace of foin \ears, as well as the . invention which nu t alter the close of tho war. have always supposed that, other things being qnal, wealth i-xerted superior power. Bul ni thia ase it would seem that Ile* poor and needy have ontrolled the legislation of the country, not only gainst the Constitution, hut against the rich and lowerfnl, that falsehood mid stupidity have out ritter] truth aud wisdom, and fastened upon the itate measures which have prostrated her credit nd inflic ted the deepest wounds upon her honor nd prosperity. Does any one believe thia ? It so would regard him as ?urpasain^ even a Charbo? on factor in credulity. But net only have these unprincipled debtors, who have not paid their debts in twenty years .ithout the interposition of thc sherill,' ha<l their un way in the Legislature, but they have also nade a dupe of General 8lCET.ES I lhis attempt to impugn the motive.-, and asperee he character of those who differ with ''Anti-Stay jaw' men is characteristic, i regret to say, of the Haulier m which the hiller have always discussed lu-question. Such attempts are generally the ?SOU of a disputant who is couscious id' the weak icss cf the jause he advocates. They are not inly unbecoming, but impertinent; they have nothing to dj with the merita of the question. I'liey exhibit bad leoling as well as bad laste, and ira especially inconsistent with the chancier of m "intelligent business man." lu his article leaded "Kural Views on Meivilesa Creditors," 'Anti-Staj Law" has transgressed in this respect o a still greater extent. Bet?re indulging in the .onceited attempt at wit and the lowridieule which nark that production, and which couatilute its ilnef merit he should have reflected thal he .hiew the first stone; that he it was who appeared u youl paper for the purpose of makiuij light the lark places in Hie subjec t ol Stay Laws; that he set out to show that this legislation waa the veal ..auae of capital not seeking investment in thia State, and ot the indebtedness vhieh now weighs down the people.

Taking them all together, they amount to an imputation ot dishoueatv upon all who do not at thiu time pay their debts, and upon those who advocate measures for their relief. Strip his language ol nil disguise, and it amounts tn this. I- ibis Kui. is it just m liberal: Would any mau, wlm baa a heart t., feel, mal.e auch an imputation upon a large and lespectable portion ol' the people of thia State, who, norn no fault of their own, have beeii plunged into poverty and distress '* lu the heart of such ali otic sUielv. the fountains ol svmpathj ate di ied up, of crusted over with ice. lt is for just auch a person that Stay Laws are mad?, for one who is deaf to the cries ol' wretched? ness and want, and inoVcd only by thc maiitivts ol a nature whose every hope, thought and feobng is self. Who is it, I would ask, that has advised debtors, having the means to pay their debts, not to pay them ? 1 doubt whether he eau be found. The debtor who is now abie to pay and does not, is not only dishonest, but a fool. But it is quite another thing to say that, under the present cir? cumstances of tho roan try, the property of tho people should not bc sacrificed lo gratify, the greed of unfeeling creditors: that such a policy would be unwise and ruinous. This is the ground upon which interf?rence with the process of the Courts has always beeu placed. It is not merely a ques? tion between debtor and creditor. Such legisla? tion is not only intended to protect the poor and weak against tho rapacity of the rich and tho strong, but its object is beyond and higher than this; it is, to secure the greatest good to the com? munity, to save the State from general bankruptcy and rain. It is in vain to say, that it is best to leave this maller lo be regulated by the people themselves. Before the Slay Law waa set aside, we were told that creditors would act- with humani? ty and forbearance toward their debtors. What are the facts ? As soon as the Courts were opon? ed, there was a g?n?ral rush to get judgments, and at the ensuing term, it is estimated that thirty thousand cases were issued in the small State of South Carolina. What a commentary on the hu? manity aud forbearance of creditors ! The single item of costs on this number of cases, before, ihm i-' ly settled, will amount to lour or live millions dol? lars, a sum nearly sufficient to pay the whole dobt of the State. It is not objected, as overv ono knows, that debts should be paid, but that since thc war tho country has been in such a condition that pay? ments should not be enforced by law. The peoplo, as I have shown, have not been ?ipnnitted to make anything to pay debts with. To pay requins money-ready cash. The burdens and ravagea of the war prevented thom from making money during ita continuance, and consequently left tin-in without any at its close. During the years following, 18?J and 1S(1U, it is well known that nothing was realized from planting, not enough to defray expenses. At the beginuiug pf the present rear it WM a hard struggle for subsistence. But for the help of a few liberal-minded factors in Charleston (I hope it will not prove that they have beeu too credulous) I kuowmauy, very many planters who would have been compelled to abandon their plantations. These are facts, and facts are stubborn things. Take thin condition of thiugs, in connection with the unsettled political stale of the country, and it requires little reflec? tion to come to the conclusion that if property should even now be forced to sale, it ?TOaid be sacrificed and that still deeper and wider min would follow than that which is now to bo seen on every hand. This is not a matter of mere argus ment or speculation; its traill has been tested by actual experience. The property that was sold under execution since the war, during the interval in which such sales were allowed by the law, was sacrificed- sold literally for nothing. No one denies that there are individual cases of great hardship resulting from the suspension of the process of the Court?. There are dishonest debtors as well as dishonest and unfeeling credit? ors, and in some instances, no doubt, the former have tsken advantage of the law to evade the pay? ment of their just debts. But this is the case with all laws. Wicked and had men, everywhere, and at all times, nave perverted the laws to pur? poses of fraud aud injustice. Thia is no test of the goodness or wisdom of a' law. The legisla? tor deals with communities, not individuals; he lays dow ii general rules; be does not pretend to frame his laws so as to reach absolute good in every case. The question here is, whether, in view ol all the leading iutereats of the country, it was not beat to poatpone a general settlement of the indebtedness of the people until the great po? litical question now at Uisue nad been settled; un? til business had lapsed into ita A>U1 channels; until trade and commerce had beenr??tored to a healthy state, etui property had r*acL*71' to some-thing ap? proaching its former value'' The Legislature was of this opinion, the Convention ol the State thought so, and the military Authorities have come to the aame conclusion. How long we are to re? main in this transition slate is beyond the reach of my mental vision. Take the mosl hopeful view of the future we can, and dark aud disuia1 is the prospect. While faction rules thu hour in die po? litical world, the very agencies of nature seem to have conspired to made our desolation more com? plete. But we should not despair altogether. There is a just (loo who preaidea over the des? tinies ol nations. Ile will not hide his face al? ways from those who walk m the ways ol right eousness. Let us do cm- duty lo Him, to our? selves, ami our country; practice the golden rule: "Whatsover ye would that men Bhonld do milo you, do ye even so io them," ?ndthis time ol chas? tening will noon pass away, and the night of our sorrow be succeeded by a brighter sun I hun our eyes hu ve hehuld for many days. BACKWOODSMAN. i.mest from Europe Pei- Steamer. Thu City of Boston, which left Liverpool at 1 P. M. on tho 25th, and Queenstown on the 26th ult., am veil in New York on Monday morning last. The following is a summary of the m.isl important u^ws brought in her mails: The Fenian outrages at Manchester continued the leading theme in England. The police continued to make arrests daily, hut those most sought after. Kelly aud Deaay, remained at large. There were all aorta of rumora as to the whereabouts of these men, and among thom was a report that thej had embarked at Liverpool on a. Ship bound to Quebec. It is .-tated that Mr. Disraeli was about to visit Earl Derby at Knowsley in order to arrange about the Irish tour which the two Ministers were about to make. Thc North (?crinan Gazette, issued in Berlin on | the 2d of September, leplyiug tu the commen? taries of the Paris journals oh Count do Bismarck's circular, mid especially that ol' thu Temps, saya thut document testifica the efforts which the Prus? sian Government makes to maintain the stipula? tions ot' the treaty of Prague, notwithstanding thc exaggeration of the national aspirations. It adds: *'It ia not the desire of Prussia for aggrandize? ment, but the ardent longing of the German pollu? tions for a closer cohesion, winch waa the charac? ter of the movement of last year. The treaty of Prague expressly affirma the transformation ol Germany, for the realization of which Prussia has constantly labored." The Moniteur Industrial or Paris, ul the 23J ot September, apeaking of the Prussian nole and Us effect, says : At Berlin nobody eau be ignorant ?hat French patriotism ia moderated by the Government, and that a war against Prussia would bo generally well received, 'lue public mind ia convinced that a conflict ia inevitable, and thia opinion fiuda its confirmation in M. dt- Bismarck's language. The Pans Temps of tho same date, canvassing the probabilities of war with Germane, aava : If we are bound to declare war against tier many for the tone of a dispatch, we ought alao to have declared it against the United States for thc tone of Mr. Seward's dispatches in thc Mc-?i can question. But a general war ia not to be en? gaged in like a duel. German and American dispatches are but the signs of oin' faults, and our tanita may be summed up m one word-personal government. That muat be said, and it niav bc said freely; tor personal government is not neces? sarily implied in our mstitutiona, which nm' ven well'adapt themselves to self-government. ' That is what all journals ought dailv t i proclaim, in stead cj balancing public opinion between peace and war. Yuthout in any wav infringing on the Constitution, it may be said that the idea of per gonai government ia this : that one man has more ?euse than ali the others put together. This notion, windi ia thc inverse of a well known pro? ve? b. can be justified only by continual success and becomes necessarily weakened when that i-. v.
