On a more extensive view of this stupendous work, we see other com missioners ‘and men deserving o f distinc tion, and a place in tjie encomiums o f the day. Among the most prominent is our Chief Magistrate and former president of the board. Him have we beheld as With a magic wand, mark the long train of our grand canal, and call into action all the energies of a devoted people,—at once, as if nature felt the impulse, the vallies rise and mountains fall—the earth parts asun der and the rocks are rent; A way is pre pared for Erie’s peaceful flood and Hud* son’s tide to mingle their waters in a per petual chain. While such are our advan tages, and such our prospects, let every heart unite in ascribing glory to God in the highest, on earth peace and good will to man. [The elements o f consecration Were then presented, and thespeaker con tinued:] Let every voice be hushed, and every heart intent, while we pour out in libations to that Being who presides over the destinieB of our nation-—who rules in the armies o f Heaven, and governs the affairs of m en; “ The corn of nourish ment, the wine of refreshment, and the Oil of joy ,” and may the all bountiful Creator bless the inhabitants o f this state, with all the necessaries, conveniences and comforts o f life. May the Supreme Ar chitect o f the universe preserve and pro tect this stupendous structure from acci dent or decay, and may it ever remain a monument o f the geniiis, spirit and liber ality of its founders. The Companions then moved around the cap-stone, while the coir sung the Most Excellent Master’s Song—commencing, “ All Hail to the morning,” &c. At the beginning of the 7th verse, “ Almighty Jehovah descend now and fill,” the two Chapters kueele^ exhibiting a spectacle of sublime devotion. The tw’o Chapters again formed them selves into a procession, marched down the steps o f the centre w'all ,of the Locks, in open files, and countermarched on the centre wall back to the cap-stone, under a brilliant discharge o f Lockport Artillery. A full procession was again formed with the Ladies in front, and marched to a bower on the green a little east of the Cottage, Where about three hundred sat down to an excellent dinner, prepared by Comp, S. Scovell. The fraternity and citizens were seated at the first and third tables afld the ladies were seated at the centre table. At dinner the utmost harmo ny prevailed.

April, the congress had. abolished all titles of nobility throughout the confederation. A strong disposition also prevailed to cur tail the power o f the priests ; and the fol lowing circumstance is mentioned to show that their influence is on the decline. The public execution o f a criminal took placr at Tampico; He had assassinated fiv<‘ ipen before, and thought to have escaped after the sixth , but it was otherwise.— According to a superstitious and an abom- ifiable rite o f the Spanish Roman Catholic church,'an ofiender, after the commission of a crime, by absconding into the chiirdi previous to his capture by his pursuer.^, i.- exempt from suffering death, be the crime what it may. This wretch acted accor dingly ; he rkn instantaneously to the church after murder, Wa 8 COnfCSSed, Ufid, it was supposed, absolved by the priest, who, in conjunction m th the culprit, con fidently asserted that it would be an ut ter impossibility to execute him.—After appealing however, to both civil and ?c- ciesiastical courts, sentence of death came down ratified by congress and the president: in consequence o f which hf was publicly shot. This was the first ef fort of the priests that had ever been baf fled in Tampico. TH E DUKE OP YORK AND TH E IRISH CATHOLICS.

I An inquest was held y esterday by Qie coroner, over the body o f W il- Hano W est, captain o f the sloop R e s olution, ballast-lighter. T h e body was found in the slip at the foot of Gouvem eur’s street, dreadfully man .^led about the head and n e c k ; the wounds were six in number, extend ing from about three inches above the collar bone to the temple, on the id l side. T h e most severe c u t was .n the lattersituation, and penetrated through the scull into the brain. A large stone, weighing from 40 to oO jjounds, was attached to the feet by a strong rope. T h e following is a sketch o f the e v idence made known before the Cor oner’s jury. Frederick W . Buck- bee saw the deceased on Thursday, having in his possession a roll o f mon ey. Mary W . Horsfield heard, on Saturday night between 12 and 1 o’ clock, cries o f “ murder” and “ help in the direction o f W est’s s lo o p :— from the sound, thought it proceeded from the same person choaking or strangling. Henry J ohnson assisted in emptying ballast from W est’s sloop into a schooner saw the stone e x hibited by the Coroner— ^andhesaw the stone, with the rope attached to it, w h ile unloading the sloop, lying at the bows o f the sloop. Jam es Os born, hkrber, shaved the deceased on Saturday aftefhoon, betw een 5 and -6 o ’clock,—knew him to b e the same. T h e veVdict o f the jury was, “ that tlie deceased came to his death by six wounds inflicted upon his neck and head with an ax or hatchet, by some person o r persons unknown.” Four persons were apprehended yesterday, on suspicion o f having committed the murder. O f these, two have been committed to Bride w ell for. further examination,— AT. F.
