Barbarism in New York.--G. B. Lamar, Esq, President of the Bank of the Republic, of New York, and for many years a resident of that city, lately resigned that office. Soon after his resignation he was waited on by a committee of the citizens, and ordered to leave the city by a specified short time. It was Mr. Lamar's desire and intention to leave the city, and his resignation was with reference to this, but the critical illness of his wife — a fact that must have been known to some of the mob — prevented an early removal. He informed the mob committee that he could not and would not leave at their orders, and here the matter rested at our last accounts.
