RICH’S IMPROVED A L ^ [Ml h M lQ) E ®^\IFESa 1381 Water«street* ffcf* The undersigned purchased of A. S. Marvin, 138a Water-street, one of Rich’s Improved Patent Salamander Safes of the $203 size, which was in our Store, No. 54 Ex- change Place. The Store was entirely consumed in the great conflagration on the morning of the 19th inst. The safe was taken from the ruins fifty-two hours after, and on opening it, the books and papers were found entirely uninjured by fire, and only slightly wet. The leather on some of the books was parched by the extreme heat. (Signed) RICHARDS & CRONKHITE, 9 Pine-st. New- York, 21st July, 1845. (kjh One of Rich’s Improved Patent Salamander Safes, of the $140 size, which I purchase! on the 2d of June last, of A. S. Marvin, 1331 Water-street, agent to the manufactu- rer, was exposed to the most intense heat during thg late dreadful confla ion. The store w I occupied. No. 46 Broad-street, was entirely consumed. The safe fell from the second story about fifteen feet into the cellar, and remained there four- teen hours, and when found, I am told, and from its appear- ance afterwards, should judge that it had been heated to a red heat. On opening it, the books and papers were found not to have been touched by fire. I deem this ordeal sufficient to confirm fully the reputa- tion that Rich’s Safe has already obtained for preserving its contents at all hazards. (Signed) New-York, 21st July, 1845. WM. BLOODGOOD.

DIRECTORY ESTABLISHMENT. J53 BROADWAY, Neto-lTorlt. H. Ludwig, Printer, 70 &, 72 Vesey-st, PREFACE. The success which attended the publication of the first volume of this little work, has induced the Publisher to issue the present with a determination to gratify, if possible, any reasonable expectation of the Public in regard to it. And in order to vary the subjects referred to on these pages, a large portion of the matter contained in the former issue is omitted in this, and other, perhaps that which will prove even more useful, has been substituted in its stead. The intention was to have changed, materially, the character of this work the present season ; but, the calamitous and ever-to-be- remembered fire in July, has rendered the execution of the plan at this time, inexpedient. Several suggestions have been received respecting the insertion of information in this publication, which, it was supposed, would make it more interesting and valuable. Such hints are ever welcome, and if not in every case adopted, the friendly spirit which dictates their communication, is, nevertheless, fully appreciated. To the kind regards of the citizens of New- York, as well as to the friendly consideration of all strangers who may visit the Great Metropolis, this little volume is now most respectfully submitted by THE PU3LISHER.

NEW-YORK CITY, the principal city of the State of New- York ; and in population, wealth, and commerce, the largest city in the United States ; deserves to be denominated tiie London of Ame- rica. The City Hall is in 40° 42' 40" N. lat., and 7-1° T 8" W. long, from Greenwich, and 3° O' 16 // E. long, from Washington. It is r<6 miles N. E. Philadelphia, 210 miles S. W Boston, 225 miles N. E. Washington, 670 miles N. E. Charleston, 145 miles S. Albany, 372 miles S. Montreal, 1370 miles N. E. New-Orleans. Tite compact part of the city is situated on the south end of New- York or Manhattan Island, a& the confluence of Hudson or North liver with the East river, which connects Long Island Sound with the harbor of New-York. The island, which contains about 14,000 acres of ground, extends from the Battery, on the south point ol the island, 13^ miles to Kingsbndge, and has tin average breadth of one mile and three fifths. The greatest breadth, about 2i miles, is on the line of 88th street. It is connected with the main land on the north by three bridges: Harlem bridge, Macomb’s bridge, and King’s bridge. The Population, in 1790, was 33,131 ; in 1820, 123,706; in 1840, 3.1 2,7 i0. Tne present population (1845) is 366,785. The Harbor, Islands, Forts, &c. The harbor of New-York is spacious and safe, the inner harbor extending 8 miles from the Narrows to the city, and several miles further up both the North and East rivers. Besides this, it has an outer harbor, extending from the Narrows to Sandy Hook, consisting of Raritan Bay. Sandy Hook on which is a light-house, is 18 miles from the city ; at this point there are 27 feet of water on the bar at high tide, and 21 feet at low tide. Within Sandy Hook there is a good anchorage. The harbor is entered not only from the ocean at S mdy Hook and through the. Narrows, but also on the northeast from Long Island Sound, as well as on the southwest through the Kills and Staten Island Sound After passing the bar at Sandy Hook, the channel to the city has a depth of water of from 35 to 50 feet. The average tide at the wharves is from 6 to 7 feet The safest and best portion of the har- bor, and where the vessels chiefly lie, is along East River, which is rarely obstructed fiom ice, as the tide sweeps through it with a strong and rapid current. Islands and Forts . — Several islands within the inner harbor are attached to the city, which are Governor’s, Bedlow’s, and Ellis’s Islands, on all of which are strong fortifications; and Blackwell's, Great Barn, and Randall’s Islands, in the East River. Governor's Island is 3200 feet from the city at the Battery, and includes 70 acres of ground. It contains Fort Columbus on the south of the island, and Castle William on the northwest point, which is a round tower, 600 feet in circumference and 60 feet high, with three tiers of guns. There is also a battery on the northwest side, commanding the entrance through the Buttermilk channel. At the Narrows, on the eastern shore of Long Island, are Fort Hamilton and Fort La Fayette, the latter of which (formerly called Fort Diamond) is built on a reef of rocks, 200 yards from the sho e. On Staten Island, at the Narrows, are Fort Tompkins and Fort Richmond, both of which are strong fortifications. The entrance from the Sound on East River is defended by Fort Schuyler on Throg’s Neck. 54 : DESCRIPTION OF NEW-YORK. The Battery. The Battery at the southern end of the city, is situated at the junc- tion of .Hudson and East Rivers. It is in the form of a crescent, containing about 1 1 acres of ground, laid out with grass plots and gravelled walks, shaded wilh trees. From this spot is a fine view of the bay, its islands, and the adjacent shores of New Jersey, and Long and Staten Islands. The scene is generally enlivened by ship- ping under sail. The Park. The Park, called in early times the Commons , is a triangular area of about 10| acres, lying between Broadway, Chatham and Cham- bers streets, is laid out with walks, and planted with trees, and sur- rounded by an iron fence, which cost over $15,000. It contains the City Hall, the new City Hall or old Alms House, and the Rotunda, now occupied by the New- York Gallery of the Fine Arts. It has also, towards its southern part a public fountain, within a basin, about 100 feet in diameter, which has a variety of jets, which are occasionally changed. When the water is thrown in a single stream, it ascends to the height of about 70 feet, presenting a majestic and interesting appearance. The fountain is designed to be made yet more ornamental. The Bowling Green. The Bowling Green, at the southern termination of Broadway, is an elliptical area, 2-20 feet long and 14(> feet broad, enclosed by an iron fence. It existed before the American Revolution, and formerly contained a leaden statue of George III., which was converted into bullets at that period. It contains a public fountain, which is sup plied by the Cioton waterworks. In the centre of a large basin is placed a rude pile of huge rocks in a somewhat circular form, about 15 feet in diameter, and as many feet high, and from the top issues a jet, with small jets around it, and presents, by the water pouring and tumbling down the sides of the rocks, a wild and picturesque appearance. Hudson Square, or St. John’s Park. Hudson Square, or St. John’s Park, between Beach, Laight, Var ick, and Hudson streets, is private property, belonging to Trinity Church, but has been reserved as a permanent public square. It is beautifully laid out with walks, shaded with trees, and surrounded by an iron fence, which cost $26,000. It contains about four acres of ground, has a public fountain, and is, perhaps, the most orna- mental spot in the city. Washington Square. Washington Square, a mile and a half north of the City Hall, be- tween Wooster and M'Dougal streets, contains about acres of ground. Two thirds of the area was the Potter’s Field until 1827, and the remainder was purchased by the city for about $78,000, and the whole was enclosed by a wooden fence, which cost nearly $3,000. It is laid out in walks, and planted with trees. Union Place. Union Place, at the northern termination of Broadw r ay is in an elliptical form, enclosed with a fine iron fence, having a public foun- tain in the centre with ornamental jets, and is a delightful breathing- place to the inhabitants. Farther up the city are other public squares, as Madison Square, Hamilton Square, and others, not yet DESCRIPTION OF NEW-YORK. 55 regulated. On the east are Tompkins Square and Bellevue, the latter the seat of the new almshouse. Croton Water Works. The cheapest and most convenient mode of visiting thp Distribut- ing Reservoir in Fortieth-street, or the Receiving Reservoir in Eighty- sixth street, is by the cars of the Harlem Rail Road, which leave the Depot, at the junction of Chatham and Centre streets, opposite the City Hall, every 15 minutes during the day. Extent of the supply of water.— The minimum flow of water in the river, where the dam is constructed, is considered to be twenty- seven millions of gallons for every twenty-four hours, which would be a sufficient supply for one million of inhabitants. It is considered that the supply for the present is abundant, even during a season of drought, for one million and a half of inhabitants, nearly five times the present population; and other streams can be turned into the Croton, if the time ever arrives when the population of the city will require an increased supply. Velocity of the water. — The velocity of the water in the aqueduct has been ascertained to be about one mile and a half an hour where it is two feet deep. The Dam — is ‘250 feet long, 70 feet wide at bottom, and 7 feet at top, and 40 feet high, built of stone and cement. It creates a pond five miles long, covering a surface of 400 acres, and contains 500,(i00,0h0 gallons of water. The Aqueduct proceeds from the dam, sometimes tunneling through solid rocks, crossing valleys by embankments, and brooks by culverts, until it reaches Harlem river, a distance of 33 miles. It is built of stone, brick, and cement, arched over and under, six feet three inches wide at bottom, seven feet eight inches at the top of the side walls, and eight feel five inches high, has a descent of thir- teen and a quarter inches per mile, and will discharge sixty millions of gallons in twenty four hours. Aqueduct Bridge at Harlem River. — The Aqueduct will cross Harlem river on a magnificent bridge of stone, 1,450 feet long, with 14 piers, 8 of them 80 feet span, and 7 of 50 feet span, 114 feet above tide water at the top, and will cost $900,000. This bridge is in pro- gress ; and for the present the water is brought across the river in an iron pipe, laid as an inverted syphon. The Receiving Reservoir — is at Eighty-sixth-street, 38 miles from the Croton Dam, covers 35 acres, and contains 150 millions of gal- lons. The Distributing Reservoir — at Fortieth-street, about three miles from the City Hall, constructed with stone and cement, covers four acres, and is 43 feet high above the street,. is 3(5 feet deep when full of water, and holds 20 millions of gallons. Thence the wat< r is dis- tributed in the city in iron pipes, laid deep under ground, to be secure from frost. A section of the wall on one side of the Reservoir, in- cluding the embankment, is 17 feet wide at the top, 35 feet wide at the distance of 16 feet below the top , and 76 feet wide at the bottom. An iron railing bounds the outside and inside of the walk around the top. This Reservoir may be considered the termination of the Croton Aqueduct, and is distant from the Fountain Reservoir at the Croton, forty and a half miles. Estimated Cost. — it was at first estimated that it would cost five or six millions of dollars; and at the city charter election of 1835. the citizens were required to vote for or against supplying the city in 56 DESCRIPTION OF NEYV-YORK. this way. The whole number of votes given was 17,330, of whom i 5,963 were against it, and 11,307 in favor of it. i Cost of the Work — Extent of Pipe laid. — The whole cost of the woi k will be about $14,000,000. There are laid between the Dis- tributing Reservoir in Fortieth street, and the Battery, 150 miles and 3,(365 feet of pipe, from 6 to 36 inches in diameter, the majority of which is from 6 to 12 inches in diameter; and free hydrants are opened in most of the streets, besides the fire hydrants. There are 1400 fire, and 600 free hydrants. Introducing of the Water.— The water was introduced into this Reservoir on the 4th July, 1842, and on the 14th of October follow- ing, the water was introduced into the city. Analysis of the Croton Wa ter.— Croton water, taken from the Croton Dam, when perfectly clear, was found to contain 4.908, or about five grains of solid matter to the gallon. Schuylkill water, taken from the middle basin, on Fairinount, (Philadelphia,) con- tained 4.08 grains ol solid matter to the gallon. Influence of the introduction of the Croton Water on the Rates of Insurance. — The tax to defray the interest of tile Croton Water Debt is 20 cents on the 100 dollars, and the average reduction on the rates of insurance is at least 40 cents on the 100 dollars. In illustration of the above, the Board mention the following One who pays water rent for near forty houses, relates the result of a calculation he made, viz. : He compared the rate of insurance he paid on this ' property previous to the introduction of Croton water, with the rate lie pays at present, and added to it the Croton water tax, and sub- trading the two lastfiom the first, the result is a clear saving of 25 | percent. Another states, that he insures on his stock 30,000 dol- lars; previous to the i ^reduction of the water he paid 85 cents on ; the 100 dollars ; he now pays for the same property 35 cents on the hundred dollars, a saving of 150 dollars. If he paid the Croton water tax on the above amount, it would be 60 dollars, leaving a | nett gain of 90 dollars. Receipts and Expenditures for 1845. — According to the annual Report of the Croton Aqueduct Board for 1845, the receipts for the year ending 30th April, 1845, were $1 18,582 74; and the expenditure for the same period, $13,411 78. 8ince the last annual report, there have been laid three miles of pipe, very little more being required within the present water district. From the 1st of Way to the 2lst of July, 52 days, there was received, for water $106,964 04. In a corresponding period last year, the amount was $79,294 15, showing an increase in favor of the present year of $27,669 89, in 52 days. At this rate, it is calculated that the whole revenue for the year will not be short of $160,000, ynd the annual increase will be equal to 35 per cent., or $41,417 26. Number of Permits issued. — The whole number of Permits is- sued, to the first day of May, 1845, was 9.110. representing 9,582 water takers; being an increase of 2,225 since the 1st of May, 1844. The discrepancy between the number of permits and the number of water takers, arises from a number of houses, steamboats, &c., being included in one permit. The revenue to be derived from the above named number of water takers, for the full year, may be stated at $131,784 55, divided as follows 7,171 private dw ellings, $72,123 88; 2,411 miscella- neous, comprising manufacturing, mechanical, and other purposes, $59,600 67. Tiie number of permits issued to the date of the present | DESCRIPTION OF NEVV-YORK. 57 report, June 30, was 10,248 ; being an increase of 1,138 since the first of May. Number of Arrivals in 1844. The arrivals of vessels from foreign ports in New- York, in 1844, were 2,208. Of these, 1,575 were American vessels, 321 were British, 83 were Bremen. The remainder were from Sweden, France, and other countries. The arrivals coastwise , were 5,360. Total ar- rivals, 7,568. PASSENGERS ARRIVED FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES. In 1844, 61,002.

The City Hall. The City Hall, heretofore regarded the finest building in the city, and one of the finest in the United States, has a commanding situa- tion in the middle of the Park. It has more ornament, than either the Exchange or the Custom House, but less simple grandeur ; though with its furniture, it is, perhaps, the most interesting building in the city. It is 216 feet long, and 105 wide; was commenced in 1803, and completed in 1812, and cost $538,734. The front and ends are constructed of white marble, and the rear of brown freestone. It is two stories high above the basement, with a third or attic story in the centre building ; and there rises from the centre a cupola, con tuining a clock of fine workmanship, and on the top, a colossal statue of Justice. In the upper part of this cupola is a loom occu- pied by a watchman, whose business it is to give alarm in case of fire, as from this position he is able to overlook the whole city. Be- hind this, another less elevated cupola, with eight Ionic columns, contains the City Hail bell, weighing 6,910 pounds, the different number of strokes of which indicate the district in which a fife occurs. The front of the City Hall is ornamented with columns and pilasters of the Ionic, Corinthian, and Composite orders, rising above each other in regular gradation. The building is entered in front by a flight of 12 marble steps. In the centre is a double staircase, as- cended by marble sleps, at the top of which is a circular gallery, floored with marble, from which ten marble columns of the Corin- thian order ascend to the ceiling. In the building there are Twenty- eight offices and other public rooms, the most conspicuous of which 5 58 DESCRIPTION OF NEW YORK. are the Governor’s room, and the chambers of the Common Council and Assistant Aldermen. The Governor' s Room is appropriated to Ihe use of the Governor of the State when lie visits tile city, and has been used as a recep- tion room for other distinguished men who have occasionally been here. It is 52 by 20 feet. The walls of the room are lmng with a fine collection of portraits, including the Governors of the State, the Mayors of the City since the Revolution, some of the Dutch Go- vernors, and the principal military and naval heroes of the late war i all of which are regarded as excellent likenesses. The Common Council Room is 42 by 30 feet, and the president j occupies the identical chair occupied by General Washington when, j he presided over the first American Congress, which assembled in i New-York. The seats of the aldermen are ranged in a semicircular j form, in the centre of which is a table for the clerk. The room contains several fine full-length portraits, painted by Trumbull, I The room of the Assistant Aldermen is handsomely fitted up. Hall of Records. The Hall of Records, east of the City Hall, in the Park, is two stories high, with a lofty portico of four Ionic pillars on each front; and in the rear of it is the New City Hall, formerly the old alms j house, which contains fifteen offices, besides the Marine Conn Room, and rooms of the American Institute. Post Office. ROBERT H. MORRIS, POSTMASTER. The Post Office, formerly the Middle Hutch Church, is located in Nassau -street, between Cedar and Liberty streets, now rented to the General Government for 7 years, at the yearly rent of $5,000. This venerable edifice has stood for 115 years, and eight or nine su£ cessive generations (counting those who were aged at the time of its opening) have worshipped within its walls. On Sabbath evening, I 11th August, 1844, the closing exercises were held in the church, in the view of resigning it for Post Office purposes. During the Revo- lutionary war, in 1776, when the British took possession of the city, several of the churches were occupied and greatly injured by the British soldiery ; but the Middle Dutch Church suffered the most. Being directly adjacent to the famous sugar-house, the scene of atro cious and multiplied cruellies inflicted upon American citizens, it was at once used by the British soldiery for their quarters, for a hospital, and then for a riding school, in which British horsemanship was displayed. The whole of the interior was destroyed and ren- dered desolate. It was not till 1790 that the church was repaired, and again opened for divine worship. The Branch Post Office , recently opened, is situated at the corner of East Broadway and Chatham Square. Office Hours. From 8 A. M. to 7 P. M. On Sunday. From 9 to 10 A. M., and from 12§ to 1£ P. M.

Custom House. The Custom Rouse, on the corner of Wall and Nassau streets, is a splendid building, constructed in the Doric order of Grecian archi- tecture, of white marble, something after the model of the Parthenon at Athens. It occupies the site of the old Federal Hall, in the open gallery of which General Washington was inaugurated ; and nearly over the front door is the place where he stood when the oath of office, as first President of the United States, was administered to him by Chancellor Livingston, April 30th, 1789. The building is 200 feet long, 90 feet wide, and 80 feet high. At the southern end on Wall- street, is a portico of eight purely Grecian Doric columns, 5 feet 8 inches in diameter, and 32 feet high ; and on the northern end on Pine-street is a corresponding portico of similar columns. The front portico is ascended by eighteen marble steps, and the rear portico on Pine-street by only three or four marble steps. The great business hall is a splendid circular room, 60 feet.in diameter, surmounted by a dome, supported by 16 beautiful Corinthian columns, 30 feet high, and at the top a skylight. On each side are 13 pilasters, in perfect keeping with the pillars on the two fronts. Cost of the Building . — The cost of the building and its furniture was $950,000 ; and including the ground, $1,175,000. The Custom House is open daily, Sundays excepted, from 10 A. M. to 3 P. M. Entries must be made before 2 P. M. Merchants’ Exchange. The Merchants’ Exchange is located between Wall, Exchange Place, William, and Hanover streets. It is built in the most substan- tial form, of blue Q,uincy granite, and is 200 feet long by 171 to 144 feet wide, 77 feet high to the top of the cornice, and 124 to the top of the dome. The front on Wall street has a recessed portico of 18 massive Grecian Ionic columns, 38 feet high and 4 feet 4 inches in diameter, each formed from a soiid block of stone, and weighing 43 tons. Besides numerous rooms for various purposes, the Rotunda in the centre is ^0 feet in diameter, with four recesses, making the 00 DESCRIPTION OF NEW-YORK. length and breadth each 100 feet, the whole 80 feet high, surmounted with a dome, resting in part on eight Corinthian columns of Italian marble, 41 feet high, and lighted by a skylight, 25 f- et in diameter. On the south side of the roof is a telegraph, which communicates with another on Staten Island ; and an hourly report is sent down from the telegraph to the news room in the Exchange, for public in- spection. The cost of this building, including the ground, is esti- mated at $1,800, COO. Halls of Justice. This building, which occupies the space between Centre, Elm, Leonard, and Franklin streets, is a unique and beautiful specimen of the Egyptian style of architecture. It is 253 feet long, and 200 feet wide. The front is entered by eight steps, leading to a portico of four massive Egyptian columns. The windows, which extend to the height of two stories, have massive frames, and cornices ornamented with tlie winged globe and serpents. The two fronts on Franklin and Leonard streets have each two entrances, with two massive columns each ; and the back entrance forms a carriage way, for taking prisoners to and from the house of detention. This building, though handsome of its kind, has a heavy and gloomy aspect, which lias acquired for it the name of the Egyptian Tombs. It is construct- ed of a light-colored granite, from Haliovyell, Me. The Court of Sessions — Occupies a part projecting back from the front building, the roof of which is supported by lofty Egyptian columns. House of Detention , or Prison . — Within the enclosure of the Halls of Justice, and toward its back part, is Jthe House of Detention, or Prison, 142 feet, long and 45 feet wide, which is entirely separa'e from the outer wall and building, and consists of 148 cells, for dider- ent classes of prisoners. THE GEEAT FIEE, JULY 19, 1845. The limits of this work will not allow a detailed account of that disastrous fire : it can only be briefly stated here, that 39 buildings were destroyed in Reaver-street; 34 in Broadway; 61 in Broad- street; 14 in Exchange Place ; 10 in Marketfield-street; 37 in Kew- street ; 15 in South William-street; and 4 in Stone-street. Total number destroyed — 2L7. Besides which, five other buildings were I much damaged The heat at the corner of Broadway and Morris-street was most I intense. At this point, Engine Co. No. 8 was stationed, and the ; clothes of the men at the brakes, were only kept from burning by the water which was played on them from another engine. The i wind at this time was from the northeast; consequently the heat : from the numerous burning buildings between Broadway and Broad- i street, as well as from those on Broadway, may be said to have j crossed that street at this point. The total loss by the fire has been variously estimated at from ji $5,030, 000 to $8,000,000. The fire commenced at about 3 o’clock, ; A. M., and was not subdued till Jl o’clock, A. M., a period of eight hours Supposing, therefore, the total loss to have been $6,000,000, the average loss, per hour, was $750,000 ; the loss, per quarter of an hour, was $187,500; the loss, per minute, was $12,500; and the average loss, per second , was $208 33£ 1 Bank notes of the denomi- nation of five dollars would not burn as rapidly in a common fire- jj place as property was consumed by this conflagration. 61 Corporation of I lie City of New-lTorlt# Terms of office expire the night preceding the second Tuesday in May.

The Policemen of the City of New- York are author- ized to take cognizance of all criminal offences committed within the following boundaries, whether on the land or on the water: From low watermark on the Westchester side of Spy ten Duyvel Creek to the Long Island shore opposite to said creek,- and to the New Jersey shore opposite to the place where said creek empties itself into the Hudson River; from said line, southward, along Long Island shore, at low water-mark, and along the New- Jersey shore, at low water-mark, including the East River and the Hudson River, and the bay between Staten Island and Long Island, together with the islands within said boundaries. Arrests. Sec. 39. An arrest, in criminal cases, is the apprehending or de- taining a person to answer to a crime or offence alleged againstjpim, or of which he is suspected to be guilty. To this arrest all persons, without distinction, are liable when accused of having committed a criminal offence. 40. An arrest on a criminal charge may be made in any place, or at any time — on Sunday as well as on any other day, and in the night as well as in the day time. But it must be borne in mind, that in all cases in which it is stated in these instructions, that a Police- man may arrest without a warrant, it is necessary that he should witness the commissionrof the offence, except the contrary be stated in these instructions. 41. The party arrested should be notified of the officer’s author- ity, and this will often prevent resistance, by taking away the pros- pect of justifying or extenuating it. 42. If a Policemen find his personal efforts insufficient to effect an arrest, or if he have reason to apprehend that resistance will be made, he ought to require all persons present, or as many as he shall think proper, to assist him ; and all who wilfully disobey such command of assistance, are guilty of misdemeanor. 68 LEGAL POWERS AND DUTIES OF POLICEMEN. 43. A person who has committed a felony, or who, for reasona- ble cause, is suspected of having committed a felony, may, if he be immediately pursued, be followed wherever he may go; and if he take refuge in any house, the Policeman, after stating his office and object, may, if permission to enter shall not be given, break open the outer door or windows, enter the house and arrest the offender. If the Policeman find the outer door open, or it be opened to him from within, and he enter that way, he may break open any inner door, after proper demand and refusal, if necessary to make an ar- rest. The breaking of an outer door is, in general, so violent and dangerous a proceeding, that it must never be resorted to except in extreme cases, and when an immediate arrest is necessary. 44. Every Policeman must recollect, that in making an arrest, he is not justified in doing more than is absolutely necessary for the safe custody of the parties until he conveys them to their proper des- tination. Persons under arrest must be dealt with properly in all cases ; it is the duty of a Policeman to keup prisoners safely ; but he has no right to punish them, and he must not even use language to them calculated to provoke or offend them, for such conduct would create resistance in the party, and a hostile feeling among bystanders towards the Policeman. Felonies. Sec. 45. Felonies are offences for which the offender, on convic- tion, shall be liable by law to be punished with death, or by im- prisonment in a State Prison. The following are some of the cases of felony in which Policemen will be most likely to be required to act without a warrant from a Magistrate : Murder, Manslaughter, Rape, Mayhem, or Maiming; Assault and Battery, by such means or force as is likely to produce death, with intent to commit a felony. Wilful setting fire to any building, ship or vessel, or public bridge, or any saw-mill, carding machine, stack of grain of any kind, stack of hay, any nursery or orchard of fruit trees, or any fence .around any cultivated field if the property of another person.

Power to prevent Felonies. Sec. 46. It is the first duty of a Policemen to prevent the com- mission of a crime, and for this purpose he has power to arrest any person who, from his acts, conduct, situation and character,, he has just eause to suspect is about to commit a felony. He should arrest any person having in his possession any implements used for, or adapted to, house-breaking, under such circumstances as give just cause to suspect that he is about to use them for that purpose ; or any person who, in the presence of the Policeman, may threaten the life of any person, or to burn his house, or to commit any felony ; or any person armed with any offensive weapon, with intent 1 here- with to commit a felony. He should also arrest any person found in any building, whether inhabited or not, or in any enclosed yard, garden or area, under such circumstances as give just cause to sus- pect that he is there with any felonious purpose. 47. In these, and similar cases, Policemen must judge from all the circumstances of the case what the intention of the party is. In some cases no doubt can exist — as when the party is a notorious thief, or acting with those who are known to be thieves : or when the party is attempting to break into a house, or is examining the doors and windows, or endeavouring to take property secretly. If the intention of the party admits of doubt, the Policemen will not act hastily, but will closely watch the suspected party, that he may discover his design. Power to Arrest for Felony. Sec. 48. A Policeman must make every exertion to effect the arrest of any one he may see in the act of committing a felony, or any one charged positively by another with having committed a felony, or even charged, on the suspicion of another, of having committed a felony, if the suspicion appear to the Policeman to be well founded, and provided the person so suspecting go with him ; and though no charge be made, yet, if the Policeman have good cause to suspect a person has committed a felony, he should arrest him, and if he have reasonable grounds for his suspicions, and the arrest is made discreetly and fairly, in pursuit of an offender, and not from any malice or ill-will, the Policeman will be justified, even though it should afterwards appear that no felony was committed. But the Policeman must be cautious, in such cases, as his sole defence can rest only on the reasonableness of his suspicions. (See section 43.) 49. If a Policeman see any one carrying, or in any manner convey- ing any goods, under circumstances which lead to a strong suspicion that they have been stolen, he should, particularly in the night, stop and examine the person ; and if the appearance and manner of the party, his account of himself and of the goods, and all the circum- stances of the case, should leave no doubt that the goods have been stolen, he should arrest the person, and take possession of the goods. But if the suspicion of the Policeman be slight, he should not stop 68 LEGAL POWERS AND DUTIES OF POLICEMEN. the person, bin watch him to discover where the goods may be de- posited ; and if he then become fully convinced that the property has been stolen, he will make the arrest, and take charge of the go. ids.

If the offenders do not immediately desist, and the disturb- ance be of a serious nature, he should take the parties into custody, securing also the principal instigators of the tumult, and do every thing in his power to restore quiet. And if the parties flee into a house and there fight and disturb the public peace, the Policeman should enter the house, and arrest the offenders and restore quiet ; for it is the duty of Policemen to stop tumults which greatly disturb the public peace, whether they occur in the streets or in buildings. (See Section 43.) Gl. A Policeman must be cautious never to interfere idly or un- necessarily ; but when required lo act, he will do so with discretion, decision and boldness ; and he may arrest any one who may oppose him in the execution of his duty, if he can prove some specific fact, but not otherwise. 62. A Policeman is not authorised to arrest, or assist in arresting, without a warrant, a party charged with disorderly conduct, or an assault, or similar offence not committed in his presence, nor should he receive into his custody a person so charged, unless the party has been arrested by a person who saw the offence committed. But if a person lias been severely cut or wounded, and gives into custody the party charged with having cut or wounded him, the Policeman is authorized to take the party into custody, and if the party injured is able to accompany the officer to the Police Court, or District Head Quarters, as the case may be, he must do so. 63.

Such occasions require the exer- cise of great coolness and firmness ; force must not be resorted to until it become absolutely necessary, but, when necessary, must be exercised to the degree required— in such cases the men must act together, and not permit their ranks to be broken, and must act in such a manner as to make it apparent that they are determined to do their whole duty, and nothing but their duty. 8*2. To a riot there must be three or more persons; and all persons who encourage, promote, or take part in riots, whether by words, signs or gestures, or by wearing the badges or ensigns of the rioters, are considered rioters, for in this case all are principals.

The facts connected with its history, and the description of the building have been furnished by Henry M. Onderdonk, Etq., author of the “ History of the Protest- ant Episcopal Churches, in the city of New- York.” Brief History of the Church. — The members of the Pro- testant Episcopal Church (then known as the Church of England in America,) held their first religious services in this city, in a small chapel attached to a fort which stood near the present Battery. The congregation rapidly increasing, Trinity Church was founded to meet the emergency in 1096, during the reign of William and Mary, and service was first performed in it on the 6th of February, TRINITY CHURCH. 81 1607. It was then a small square edifice, but was enlarged in 1735, and again in 1737. On the 21st of September, 1776, by the memor- able fire, which laid w r aste so great a portion of the city, this edifice was entirely consumed. It lay in ruins during the remainder of the Revolutionary war, at the expiration of which, it was rebuilt, and consecrated by Bishop Provoost in 1790. In 1839, an examination having been made of the building, it was deemed advisable to pull it down, and erect another in its place. The magnificent edifice, located in Broadway, opposite Wall-st., (erected under the superin- tendence of Mr. Richard Upjohn, architect,) and of which a view is given, is the result — a result truly creditable to the age and nation, and one which will prove a lasting monument of the munificent character of the venerable corporation of the parish. Description of the Church . — The style of architecture is the per- pendicular Gothic, the peculiar characteristic of which is, that the mullions of the windows, and the ornamented pannelings run in perpendicular lines. It is the first church erected in this country having the clerestory , and is built entirely of sand stone, even to the apex of the spire. The aisle walls are 40 feet in height, and are each supported by eight substantial buttresses, between which are pointed windows, 24 feet high, beautifully ornamented by tracery cut in stone. A moulded battlement surmounts these walls, extending their whole length. The clerestory is supported by massive piers, rising from the inte- rior of the church, and a succession of arches springing from them. It is also surmounted by a battlement, which runs over the wall of the western end, and is crowned at the apex by a cross. Each but- tress has upon it a pinnacle crocketed at the angles and terminating in a finial. In the western wall of the church is a magnificent win- dow, termed the altar window, 60 feet high, and 25 feet wide. Its breadth is distributed into seven bays, and its length into two sections by a transom muilion in the centre, and is, as are all the other win- dows, glazed with stained glass. But that which most strikes the eye with admiration, is the magnifi- cence of the tower and spire. Covered as they are with elaborate work, cut in solid stone, and running up to the height of 283 feet, their imposing grandeur is beyond description. The base of the tower is 30 feet square, and 6 feet 9 inches through, and is supported by double buttresses 4 feet wide, projecting 7 feet 6 inches. The entrance through the tower is 20 feet wide, and 30 feet high, and is surmounted by a bishop’s mitre. The whole height of the tower is 127 feet. The spire is in fine proportion, and rises to the top of the cross which crowns it, to the height of 156 feet, thus making the aggregate height 283 feet. It is octagonal, and each angle is decorated by a succession of crockets. The steeple will contain a clock, and a chime of bells. The interior of Trinity is equally as beautiful as the exterior. The nave is 137 feet long, 36 feet wide, and 67 feet 6 inches high, and receives its support from a double colonnade, each of 7 English piers. The vaulting over it consists of graceful groining, and is de- corated by bosses of clustered foliage. The pews are of oak and capable of seating with ease 800 per- sons. There are no galleries in the church. The vestry at the west end of the church, forms a fine apartment 72 feet in length, with a groined ceiling. In it are placed all the monumental tablets formerly in the other building. Among them is 7 82 CHURCHES IN N. Y.— COMMISSIONERS IN BANKRUPTCY. the monument erected to the memory of the fate Bishop John H. Hobart, executed by Ball Hughes, at a cost of $3000. The Organ , which is to be built by Mr. Henry Erben, will cost $10,003. The case is constructed of oak, of a rich Gothic pattern, trom a plan of Mr. Richard Upjohn, and will be 53 feet high, 3*2 feet S deep. and 27 feet wide. The largest wooden pipe is 32 feet long, and 36 by 30 inches, internal measurement. The largest metal pipe is 28 feet long, and 5 feet in circumference. There will be four sepa- j! rate organs, viz. — Great organ, choir organ, swell organ, and pedal jj organ ; 43 stops — 11 of which will be diapasons, one of 32 feet in length, and 4 of 16 feet in length, besides two reed stops of 16 feet in length. There will be nearly 2500 pipes in the organ, and its total I weight wifi be upwards of forty tons. 1 Dimensions . — The following are he dimensions of Trinity in a compact form : — inside, exclusive of tower. “ “ “ including buttresses.

The Banks are open every day in the Year from ten A. M. to three in the afternoon, except Sundays, Christmas Day, New Year’s Day, the 4th of July, and general Holydays, appointed by legal authority, and the Bank of New- York on Good Fridays. The interest for discount in the banks in this city is fixed at Six per Centum per Annum, upon notes or bills not having 60 days to run. Three days of Grace are allowed, and the discount taken for the same. Every Bill or Note offered for discount, must be delivered into the office on the day preceding the day of discount, inclosed in a sealed cover directed to the Cashier, advising the name of the person upon whose account it is offered, &c. Bills or notes lodged at the banks for collection, are collected free of expense, except when protested for non-payment — the person lodging the same pays the charge of protest. Deposits of money, or notes for collection, must be entered in the dealer’s book at the time such deposit is made. Time of closing and opening of Hudson River.

The State and Countv Taxes are collected by the Receiver of Taxes, at his office in the basement of the New City Hall, in the Park, in the rear of the City Hali. The Taxes are payable on the 14th day of February. Any person may pay his taxes prior to the first day of January, and in so doing is entitled to a discount therefrom, at the rate of 7 per cent, per annum, to be reckoned from the day of payment to the first day of February. All taxes remaining unpaid on the 15th day of February, are chargeable with a penalty of one per cent, oh the amount of the tax : if remaining unpaid on the 15th of March, an additional one per cent., making two per cent. : and if not paid be- fore the first day of April, will be chargeable with a penalty of one per centner month to date back, to October, 1845. For all taxes re- maining unpaid on the 15th of April, the Receiver is authorised to issue his warrant to the Sheriff or Constable, to collect by distress and sale. ERRONEOUS TAXES. An act was passed by the State Legislature, in May, 1844, authorising the Board of Supervisors of the city and county of New-York, to correct taxes erroneously assessed, provided the same did not result from the neglect of the person assessed, and provided also, that application shall be made within six months of the date of the return of the Assessment Rolls to the Receiver. The Rolls will be returned early in October, and the time for correcting erroneous taxes therefore expires early in April. The Board of Supervisors is composed of the following officers ; viz: — The Mayor, Recorder, and Aldermen. David T. Valentine, No. 8 City Hall, is clerk of the Board of Supervisors. 102 Motels, Taverns, and Coffee Mouses. NAME. LOCATION. BY WHOM KEPT.

( Tke Arrangement is Alphabetical.) Silver and Silver plated Ware, Jewelry, Watches, &e. — ! The establishment of Ball, Tompkins, & Black, (successors to the late well known firm of Marquand & Co.,) No. 181 Braadway, is i quite celebrated in its line, and in every respect worthy the attention I of strangers, as well as others, who desire Silver, or Silver-plated '! Ware, Forks, Spoons, Tea-Sets, Cotfee or Tea Urns, Tureens, Pitchers, Waiters, Cake or Fruit Baskets, Fruit or Dessert Knives, ! &c., &c. The above establishment, having been in existence more than thirty years, is, probably, the oldest of its kind in Broadway ; and from the well-known character of the gentlemen who conduct it, ; the articles which they manufacture to order, or sell from their cases, may be relied on as being of the quality represented. In this | respect, all their merchandise is warranted, both as regards materials and workmanship. Tne admirers of whatever is chaste and beauti- i fill in design, or perfect in execution, will here find an assortment of Silver and Plated Ware. Diamond and other Jewelry, Watches, j Clocks, &c., fee., &c., as rich, choice, and varied, as can be found in : the city, and for which this establishment has been so long and so justly celebrated. Strangers and others who desire to witness the progress of Ameri- can artisans, in many of the above-named articles, or, to select some tasty and elegant article of jewelry to make a present, either on a matrimonial or birthday occasion, or as a keepsake, will find that tile arts of design and mechanism are here combined with gold and j rare gems, in a manner calculated to call forth the admiration of tile most fastidious. ; Lamps, Chandeliers, and Girandoles. — Among the many at- I tractions of the sunny side of Broadway, the splendid establishment ; of Messrs. Couthouy & Vevers, for the sale of H. N. Hooper & Co’s } Lamps, Girandoles, &c., (No. 341.) is conspicuous for its rich and 1 varied display of these goods and their exquisite workmanship. But a I few years ago, we were entirely dependant on England and France j for our supply, and the enormous prices charged by importers, placed ! a handsome set of these articles beyond the reach of any but the wealthier portion of our community. A few enterprising persons have produced a complete revolution in this respect, and such things i are no longer regarded as luxuries, nor imported save in comparitive- ly small quantities. Messrs. H. N. Hooper & Co. of Boston, have long stood at the head of those engaged in this branch of manufacture, and in re- peated struggles for the supremacy, have invariably triumphed over I all competitors. They commenced their operations about the year I 1833, and the very next year, specimens of their L imps exhibited at the Fair of the American Institute in this city obtained the highest premium. Since that time, they have ra untamed unshaken preemi- 1 nence, and have received from various associations for the encourage- ment of Home Industry, six gold and as many silver medals, among which are the gold medals of the two last Fairs of the Institute. Most of our readers will recollect the magnificent display made by i Couthouy & Nevers on those occasions, which excited the unquali- fied admiration of the throng of visiters. The factory of Hooper & Co. is the most extensive and perfect in its arrangements of any of the kind in this country, an4 has few if any equals in Europe, and is CELEBRATED ESTABLISHMENTS IN NEW-YORK. 117 justly classed among tkp lions of Boston. In style and delicacy of finish, the Lamps and Girandoles from this celebrated manufactory immeasurably surpass any other we have ever examined of Ameri- can make, and are not excelled b> the finest specimens of European I skill. The intelligent observer of our progress in the household j arts, will derive no ordinary gratification from a visit to the Depot of Messrs. Couthouy & Nevers. Disbrow’s Equestrian Academy. — There is no place about town where the “ utile et dulce ” are so splendidly blended as at Disbrow’s Equestrian Academy in the Bowery, near Vauxhall Garden. The comforts and convenience of the manege — the politeness and skill of the proprietor and instructor — the fine horses and moderate charges, conspire to render that establishment well worthy the patronage of the enlightened citizens of New York. Horsemanship is becoming a necessary accomplishment for both ladies and gentlemen; and as it is an art which requires a competent instructor, we can confidently recommend Mr. Win. H. Disbrow as a gentleman pre-eminently qualified as a teacher. Thoroughly acquainted with the disposition and management of the horse, and being himself one of the most graceful riders in the city, persons placing themselves under his tuition cannot fail receiving a proper knowledge of the art. To ladies this establishment affords peculiar advantages, as they are concealed from public gaze while under instruction, and because no possible danger can be apprehended. Mr. D. has horses which he has trained especially for the use of his lady pupils. — We feel con- fident that the advantages of this pleasant place of exercise and amusement need only to be known, and it will receive a present share of public patronage. As the Academy is open to ladies and gentlemen, the former in the forenoon, the latter in the afternoon, we would advise all to visit it and judge for themselves. Printing Press, Machine, and Saw Manufactory. — We have had the pleasure of visiting the celebrated establishments of Messrs. Hoe & Co., located at 29 and 31 Gold-street, and at the corner of Broome and Sheriff streets, and many new and gratifying reflections have been suggested thereby, connected with the history of the Mechanic Arts in the United States. “The never-ending— still beginning ’’ clink of hammers — the roar of furnaces and blowers there to be heard — still linger on our ear. What a life those sons of Vulcan lead amid the din of artificial thunders — the very variety of which is monotonous ! A visit to such an establishment affords, to the reflecting mind, the most satisfactory proofs of the rapid ad- vance of American skill in manufactures. With this establishment, editors and publishers of newspapers throughout the United States are familiar. It is not devoted, however, exclusively to the manu- facture of machine and hand-presses — but every thing necessary for a printing office and bindery, including type, ink, &c., is furnished at the shortest notice, and at a cost much less than formerly. Ma- chinery of every description is manufactured by the Messrs. Hoe, with an expedition and in a style of finish unsurpassed by any simi- lar establishment in the United States. But to appreciate justly the degree of perfection which they have reached in the manufacture of printing machines, printing and standing presses, hydraulic and screw presses, saw-mills, veneer saws ; circular, pit, mill, cross cut, and other saws — and machinery generally — the reader must visit 118 CELEBRATED ESTABLISHMENTS IN NEW-YORK. their establishment, which will well reward the curious in such matters. Plumbe National Daguerrian Gallery and Photographic Depots. (Founded A. D. 1840.) To which have been awarded eight Medals and Premiums by the Institutes of Massachusetts, New- York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, for the most beautiful colored Da- guerreotypes and best Apparatus ever exhibited. This establishment is located at No. 25L Broadway, upper corner of Murray-street, (next door above Tenney’s jewelry store.) And the branches are at the following places : Boston, 75 Court st. ; Philadelphia, 136 Chesnut st. ; Baltimore, 22 Baltimore st. ; Washington City, Pennsylvania Avenue ; Alexandria, D. C., Lyceum Hall ; New Orleans, 56 Canal st. ; Saratoga Springs, Broadway ; Paris, 127 Vieille Rue du Temple ; Petersburgh, Va., Sycamore st. ; Cincinnati, O., 176 Main st. ; Louisville, Ky., 449 Main st. ; Lexing- ton, Ky., Main st. : Harrodsbuig, Kyi, Harrodsbuig Springs; St. Louis, Mo., corner Fourth and Chesnut sts. ; DuBuque, Iowa ; Liverpool, 32 Church st. This immense Establishment is justly celebrated as the First in the World , and such is the magnitude of its business, induced by the superiority of its productions, that it furnishes employment and sup- port to upwards of 500 individuals. The Manufacturing Department is conducted upon an immense scale, to supply the very large consumption of the Picture Depart- ment of the concern, and to fill the numerous orders from all parts of the world, for Apparatus, Plates, Cases, Chemicals, &c. The Gallery here, is one of the most attractive and interesting places of fashionable public resort in New- York ; and an honor to the City. Being Free , and occupying the first floor above the street, it is the pleasantest lounge in Broadway ; and is daily frequented by the elite, who find this an agreeable resting place in passing up and down the gay thoroughfare. It contains a vast collection of the most perfect and choice speci- mens of the beautiful art of Photography, ever produced. Among them are Likenesses of many of the most distinguished individuals of the country : Presidents, Vice Presidents, Officers of the Cabinet, Army, IN avy, &c., Senators, Members of Congress. Judges, Divines, Lawyers, Authors, Actors, Municipal Officers of this city, and a host of others “ too numerous to mention.” Above the Gallery are numerous suites of Rooms, appropriated to the use of sitters ; who are thus secured the advantages of privacy and despatch in having their portraits executed. There is one suite of rooms in this establishment fitted up to take groups of fifty persons or more in one picture, each being in the same light as the other, ar.d so arranged as to remove entirely the dis- agreeable effect of the light upon the eye, as at no time does the sun shine into : this part of the building — the soft northern light only being admitted through the roof, a mode of obtaining it which from ex- periment, proves to be the only way in which a large group can be made by this art. Fancy and Curiosity Store. — In alluding to the various estab- lishments which stand preeminent in our “ Great Metropolis,” those that are not only a source of profit and honor to their proprietors, but also, the pride and boast of our citizens; the Fancy and Curi- CELEBRATED ESTABLISHMENTS IN NEW-YORK. 119 osity store of Messrs. Tiffany, Young and Ellis, occupying Nos. 259 and 260 Broadway, opposite the City Hall, deserves particular atten- tion. Here all tastes and all purses may be suited. Here may be found, for instance, the compact, useful shaving apparatus for “ the million,” at the cost of a few shillings, or, the magnificent dressing case with silver and even gold mountings, for the “units,” at the cost of a few hundred dollars — Work Boxes for the careful housewife, or, those garnished with damasked or golden implements fit for the belles of the land — Fans at the cost of a hundred dollars, or a hundred mills — Jewelry and silver wares in a thousand different forms — manufactures of Papier Mache in endless variety of forms and uses — the Porcelain of India, of Saxony, of France and of Stafford- shire — the gorgeously colored glass of Bohemia— the elegantly'finish- ed castings of Beilin — the corals and cameos of Rome — the statuettes of Florence — therustic furniture of Switzerland — the useful cutlery of Sheffield — the choicest perfumery, selected from the most cele- brated makers of every country — the ten thousand old and odd things from China and Japan — Gloves of a softness and beauty of shape, not obtainable elsewhere — Paper and Envelopes, and all the furniture of the Escritoire — in short, weffielieve their collection of rich, curious and useful articles, adapted to one’s own wants, or as presents for every occasion, is not surpassed in the world. To collect and keep assorted so various a stock, requires one of their firm to be always in Europe, visiting the different Capitals and procuring from each its rarest and most elegant novelties. Since they themselves in their announcement, invite the visits of strangers, and extend to all so particular an attention, that each con- siders himself a specially favored one ; surely we may safely echo the invitation and recommend all purchasers, either wholesale or re- tail, as well as all pleasure seekers, to visit them. Looking-Glass Warerooms, — Of those establishments about town which universally attract the attention of citizens and stran- gers, one of the most celebrated is the splendid Looking-Glass store of Messrs. Williams & Stevens, 343 Broadway, on the fourth square above the Park, and nearly opposite the Tabernacle. Its immense windows are usually surrounded by a crowd halting to admire the gorgeous specimens glittering through them, reminding one of the palaces and “Magic Mirrors” described in the Arabian Nights. Modern and Antique Frames, Brackets, Candelabra, and Vase Stands, are clustered there in “golden order,” with every variety of pattern, from the massive and substantial to the most fairy-like and frail. Thirty years’ experience has given to Messrs. Williams & Stevens the palm of excellence and precedence in their line of business ; and in extent and variety, as in quality and elegance of manufacture, their establishment has no equal in this country, no superior, probably, in the world. There are Mirrors from the smallest Toilet Glass, to the largest and most superb Pier Looking- Glasses, with frames of the rarest Elizabethan, Louis XIV., and Gothic styles ; Window Cornices of the most approved kinds ; to- gether with Portrait, Picture, and Miniature Frames, from the most elaborate and costly, to the plainest and least expensive patterns. It is a place eminently worth visiting, if but to lounge awhile amid its paintings and elegant decorations ; and of its kind, is the most unique and beautiful in the United States. 120 SPACES OF AMUSEMENT IN IEW-IOEK, ( The Arrangement is Alphabetical.) AMERICAN MUSEUM. This extensive establishment, which was founded in 1810, by John Scudder, esq., is situated in the very heart of the city, corner of Broadway and Ann streets, opposite St. Paul’s Church and the Astor House, and contiguous to the majority of the best hotels in the City, the Park, City Hall, &c. Jt is one of the most interesting, as well as extensive establishments of the kind in America, containing seve- ral large and commodious halls, over one hundred feet in length, filled with an innumerable quantity of curiosities from every portion of the globe, to which continual addition?, are being made. Here are Birds of every variety and clime, from the Ostrich to the hun- dred kinds of Humming Birds ; from the Bird <*. u aradise of the Tropics, to the Penguins of the Pul ar Regions. The specimens of Preserved Animals and Reptiles are c- '‘emark- able excellence, such as were never seen alive in this country. The departments of Conchology, Entomology and Mineralogy, are very perfect. The collection of Indian and Polynesian Implements, War Clubs, Idols, &c. is very curious, interesting and valuable. The Grand Cosmorama contains views of the most celebrated Cities, Scenery and Natural Phenomena, executed at an immense expense, ty the first Artists in Europe. The Miscellaneous Curiosities, include a fine collection of Old Paintings and Rare Engravings, many Chinese Curiosities, ancient Suits of Armor, Mail and Arms, antique Coins, splendid Fossils, beautiful Statuary, a finely preserved Egyp- tian Mummy, &c. A Saloon capable of seating over one thousand persons at a time has recently been added to the Museum, and a great variety of the most amusing, and perfectly chaste performances take place there- in every evening, (except Sundays,) in the year. The price of ad- mission to the whole is only 25 cts. AMERICAN ART UNION. American Art Union, 322 Broadway. The amount received from those who contribute $5 per annum, is appropriated to the purchase of paintings by American Artists, which are disposed of annually by lottery, among the subscribers. Officers.— W. C. Bryant, Pres . ; Andrew Warner, R. F. Fraser, Secs. ; Eben Platt, Treas. BOWERY THEATRE, Is situated in the Bowery, above Bayard street. (The particulars respecting it have not been obtained.) CASTLE GARDEN Is built on a mole, and connected with the Battery by a bridge. It was originally erected as a fortification, and having become un- necessary for this purpose, was ceded by the United States to the corporation of the city in 1823. Within its walls, 10.000 people can be accommodated in a great amphitheatre ; it is used for exhibitions, j and sometimes for public meetings. CHATHAM THEATRE. This theatre is situated on Chatham- street, near the comer of j Roosevelt, and almost opposite Orange-street. The great success it | has met with under the management of the present lessees, Messrs. I Deverna & De Bar, has given it, the exceedingly popular cognomen of “ The People’s Theatre.” The house is nearly as large as t h e | FLACES OP AMUSEMENT. 121 Park Theatre, — has three capacious tiers of boxes, and a roomy pit, into which over 1,000 persons can be comfortably seated; The style in which the house is decorated is exceedingly tasteful and elegant ; and the manner in which it is conducted is delightful in the extreme. We may safely say, that good order always prevails, and that a strong police force is ever in attendance to protect and be of service to the unwary stranger. The stage department is as well managed as the front. The performers are" selected from the most talented in the States. Among the Chatham favourites are George Hill, fa- miliarly called “ Yankee Bill,” T. D. Rice, the original “Jim Crow,” and J. B. Booth, the famous tragedian. The entertainments gene- rally consist of choice equestrian and other mein-dramas, with farces, and a variety of dancing and musical between -piece perform- ances. In short, for beautiful scenery, clioioe acting, capital music, and comfort for the visitor, the Chatham, or People’s Theatre, is second to no other dramatic temple in the United States. The prices of admission are reasonable enough, viz.— boxes, 25 cents ; pit, one shilling. A private box, which will hold 12 persons, can be had for $3. Who would visit Mew- York without going to the CJmtham- ■ street Theatre 1 No one, MITCHELL’S OLYMPIC THEATRE. ' This building. Mo. 444 Broadway, was converted into a Theatre in 1837, by Messrs. Willard & Blake, but was only under their man- agement a few months, the enterprise meeting with very indifferent success. The establishment then for a period of nearly two years, was under the control of a number of individuals, but with as little success as attended the effort of the original proprietors. In the month of December, 1839, it came under the control of the present lessee, Mr. Mitchell, by whose skill, enterprise, and able manage- ment, it has become from the most insignificant and unfortunate, the most popular and successful Theatre in this city, or indeed in the United States. To the tact with which Mr. Mitchell has seized local incidents and prevailing follies, fur the purpose of amusing and inoffensive satire, together with an unexampled rapidity in the production of novelties, maybe traced in a great degree, his extraor- dinary success. He has not sought the aid of those theatrically termed “Stars,” his object being to present a general rather than a particular excellence, and in this he has shown his usual judgment. The audiences of the Olympic are of the highest respectability, and the boxes nightly display as much of the beauty and refinement of the city as can well be pressed into its drawing room limits. NATIONAL ACADEMY OF DESIGN. The Academy of Design, located at 348 Broadway, exhibits annu- ally a large collection of paintings by living artists. Council:— S. F. B. Morse, Pres.; A. B. Durand, V.

NIRLO’S GARDEN, Situated on the corner of Broadway and Prince streets, Is laid out with exceeding taste, and always the very pattern of neatness, hav- ing walks lined with choice flowers and shrubbery; an elegant Saloon, adorned with sha3te and beautiful designs, mirrors, &c. ; grounds, too, ornamented and rendered refreshing by the ever- gushing waters of a fountain — these when combined, as they are combined in summer, with the delightful strains of a military band, give a peculiar fascination to this Garden, and tend, together with the exceeding taste and propriety with which ev< ry thing is presented and conducted y to render this establishment the theme of praise among all citizens and strangers. The fireworks occasionally ex- hibited here are of the first order, and the theatrical and operatical entertainments are “ ever pleasing, ever new.” PARK THEATRE, Situated in Park Row, opposite the Park, was built in 1706 ^altered and improved in 1808 ; burnt in 1820 ; and rebuilt m 1821. There are three tiers of boxes, each tier holding 440 persons. The Pit will accommodate 430, Gallery, 500; the slips (even with the gal- lery but a portion of the boxes,) hold 250 persons. The house, therefore, will contain 2,500 persons, and when full, at the rate of $1 per ticket to the boxes, &c., the receipts amount to $1910. The depth of the theatre is 187 feet, width, 76 feet. It is the property of John Jacob Astor, and the heirs of John K. Beekman. The rent, for many years $18,000 per annum, is now somewhat reduced. The present lessee is Edmund Simpson, w ho became joint manager with the late Stephen Price, in 1816. At this house all the great theatrical and operatic talent of Europe is introduced to the Ameri- can public. The theatre contains ten private boxes, two of which belong to the proprietors. The model of the house may be considered perfect, as every seat commands a full view of the stage. VAUXHALL GARDEN, Is situated in the Bowery, between Great Jones and Eighth streets, and was formerly much more extensive than it now is, the extension of Lafayette Place having considerably reduced its dimen- sions. It is conducted by Bradford Jones, and devoted to theatrical entertainments, concerts, exhibitions of fireworks, &e., the price of admission to which is much less than formerly. STATE IN® CITY COURTS. COURT FOR THE CORRECTION OF ERRORS.

If you wish to find the location of any particular house or store, — for instance* No. 80 Alien-street, on consulting’ the Street Directory, you will observe that 68 Allen is on the right hand of that street and the corner of Grand, and 88 Alien the right-hand corner of Broome ; hence the desired number will be on the right-hand side of Alien-street, between Grand and Broome. Many of the streets are very irregularly numbered : this is especially true in regard to all streets above Eighth and east of Avenue 5th ; and in some streets the numbers change from right to left. Note .— The streets above Twelfih-street are divided by Avenue 5th, into East and West — as East Thirteenth, West Thirteenth— and those streets located as above described will be found, therefore, in this work, under East and West Al. or A.

Browne respectfully informs his Friends and the Musical World, that he has established himself for the manufacture and im- portation of these very beautiful instruments, at 281 Broadway, & 73i Claambers-st. ? N.1T. His arrangements are such as to enable him to transact business at European prices, thereby saving purchasers the high duties im- posed by tariff on these Instruments. J. F. Browne would observe, these Harps are constructed on the most improved principles, with all the modern improvements of London and Paris, are unequalled in brilliancy of tone, fineness of touch, and perfectness of mechanism. Particular care is taken to fit them for the extremes of climate in this country, in which respect they will be found far superior to any of European manufacture, imported in the usual way. These Harps are patronised by the elite of musical taste and pro- fessional talent in Europe ; among the latter, he would mention N. C. Bochsa, who invariably selects from this establishment. J. F. Browne begs to offer the opinions of some of the first profes- sional talent in this country. WOOD TYPE, CASES, STANDS, FURNITURE, GALLEYS, &c.
