But the Italian Government passed an order lately that the names of all such children should be regie- tered at tho offices of the Consuls, together with the name of the padrone, so that children might be traced and returned. Tho crimes and bratal- ity of tho padrones having become known to the Italan Government, it lately is- sued another order, rendering it imperativo on the padrones to return a!l children hold by them, to Italy by the 15th of this month But no order or provision was made for the ex- penses of sending thom back. John Loraza, the boy in question, was held by & padrone in this city. " He succeeded in making Lis escape and went tothe houseof a kind- hearted gentloman, John O'Neil, who interestod lumself in the matter, and was' instrumental in gotting the petition ‘for habeas corpus. The taiian Vice-Consul here, however, wishes to have the boy sent back in accordance with the order of his Government. Judge Farwell, after hearing the facts, called the boy up to him, and_asked him soveral quce- tions. " Jobn seemed desirous of staying with lus protector, Mr. O'Neil, and refused to go back to the padrone. The Judge thon remarked «that ho was influenced most by consideration for tha boy’s welfere, and that if parents were 80 regardless of their child's good as to place him 10 the handa of this mau for s term of years, aud to secd him to a distart country, he Iimself should mot be inchmed to oxere suy suthority he might have to re- tun the child to Italy. If Alr. O'Neil Was a proper person to take the boy, and would take caro of him, and heve him properly brought up, be would throw no obstaclo in the way, ce- pecially as John scemed dosirous of. remaining where he was.

Lull,who died at Ruscoe, Mo., on the Cth inst., from the effects of a wound in the chest, received during tho encountor with the Younger outlaws, reached this city at 7:30 o'clock yesterday morning. The remsius were accompanied by rs. Lull, by the Captain's mother, and Mr. Linden, of Pinker- ton's agency. It appears from Mrs. Lull's state- ment, that her husband's death was duo to two causes: first, to the cowardice of Detective Wright,who ran away when he might have taken part in the fight, and Lilled or disabled one of {he Youngers ; and second, to the unskillfulnees or ignorauca of the doctor who was called to attend the Captain after ho had been shot. It seams that Wright ot drunk after his urmival at Osceola end saul nothing about tho fight, Lull remaining over night in the brusb, uncared for, and suffering from = ballet- wound in the body sud another inthe lott wniet, which shatiered the bones.

Yosterday morning he was befors Justice Scully, who fined Ansel §50 for swindling a Canadian gentleman by selling him a box of brass jewolry, repie- senting the article to be pure and gouwina 18 carat gold. Jobn Urnbuck snd August Wrinderilich, & brace of rogues, were arrestod Friday misht about 9 o’clock, by Officer Berdell, for breaking into ibe cigar manufactory of Jacob Kiuigen, No. 225 Wentworth avonue. Yeuterday morning they were before the South Side Police Court, to anuwer the charge of burglary, The culprits being quito youny, the charge was changed to that of disorderly, and Urabuck was fiued $50, and Wrinderilick, who only kept watch on the outside, by request of Urubuck, was fined $20.

The boy said ha hud no relatives except « brother, who was employed on soms one of the vesscls on the lako, aud yester- day be arrived in Clucago with him. After dia- ner the boy started out for a ramble, and when on Polk sireet he was met by & woman with o botlle of whisky 1n her hand, who induced the little fellow to drink freely of it, saying it was only pop. When she had got the child inan jn- eensiole condition she left him. Justice Boyden directed that the women be arrested if she could bo found, and he would intlict severe punish- ment upon bor. The boy was sent to the Home of the Friendless, J. W. Blake was arrestod Friday by Officer Bimmous on a State warrant issued on com- plaiut of John P. Tyson, the oyster-man at No. 114 West Randolph strect. Blake, who was formerly a bookkecper in the employ of L'yson, is charged with stealing & cecuan amonut of money from his empioyer. He was arrcsted at tha corner of Clark and Madisop strests. Heis well counccted, and, unfortunately for bis frieuds, is 5_dishonest map, laving boen ar- restod onco before on a eimilar charge, and was discharged for tue waut of prosecution, the party refuring to sppear against um on account of tho respectability of Blake's family. The risoner seemed much affected when arrested. ‘esterday morning he was taken before Justice Scully, who continued the case till \eduesday undet $2,000 Londs. Yesterday morning sbont a dozen bright and intelligent looking luds, ranging from 10 to 18 years of age. were brougat before Justice Boy- den on the charge of diworderly. C. H. Bash, tue complainaut, stated that the little fellows were it the hsbit of congregating in s vacant house uaar where ho lived, and annoying bim by daucing aud eipming.

Charles Slee declaimed furions- Iy sgamst the yousg scapegraces. ‘Che boys were amrenged in @ Tow in front of the august * Justice, and when a witness would state what they thought was an exaggeration, up would go & little hand in sehoulboy style, indicating toev would be pleased to have their say. Oflicer St. Clair stated in be- half of the culprits, thut tuey bore gcod charac- ters, and their school-teacher turutshed certid- cates of good character also. The Justice gave them 2 lecture for the benafil of tho witnesses, and discharged them. AMISCELLANEOUS. S. F. Norton sworo oot a warrant vesterday, bofors Instice Hanes, aguinst Ivace Hartman, & bogus Constable. Mr. Norton complains that Hariman collected by lovy and salo of property, under an execution in favor of Sunon W. Biu- cluir and ageinst Mary Prindeville, issued by Justice Daggett, the sum of $30.U3, and feloni~ ous!y sppropristed the money to Lis own uso, with intent to steal it, and hus fatled up o the present timo to pay over the monoy to the right- fol owner. r. Norton, the comolainaut, is the attomoy for Binclair. The case will probably be heaid to-morrow before Justice Haines. Several parties have been before Commission- or Hoyue duriug the past few days, for violation of Bec. 33, act of Juwe G, 1872, which is that every per=on or persous shall, aftcr disposing of the contents of a cigar-box, htterly destroy the revenue-samp theroon. hlany cigar-dealers, especially thoae in theretail trade, huve neglect~ ed to attend to this provision of the act of Coan- gross. After gmptying the box, it is cast aside, &nd i8 linble to be used aguin, which is 50 cents for every 100 ciguip. Tue manufacturers Lo ere disposed to Lo dishonest in this branch of busivess—and they are numerous—Lavo these boxes gathered up, and use them. The retail douler being iguorant of this provision of tho law, thereby makes himself liable to prose- cution by the suthorties, the penalty being o fiug of ¥50 for every box thus used, aud im- prisonmont for not less than ton days nor more than six months. Yesterdsy thers wero two more dealers before the Commissivner op this charge, and_each furnished bail for appearance fu tho District Court 1 the sum of 500, It wonld be well for the various cigar stores to ex- amino carefully their purchases, and koow of Wwhom they make them, as by 50 doing they will avoid much trouble in the tuture. Two men receutly commenced suit against an individual for forciblo detainer. The case was callea Thursday betore Justice Austm. The da- feudent demanded a venire cf six men to try the case, which was ordered and issued. On the Justice refusing to deliver it Constable Bartells, Who was brought in by the defendant’s atiorney for the purpose of packing the jury, the defend- ant withdrew the opplication for the venire, and ssked for a chsuge of venue, swearing that he counld not receive an impartial trial in that court. Tho chapge was granted to Justice Scully who also refused the - venire to Bartells. ~ There being xo cther Constable present who was capable to serva tho venire, and the plaintif withdrew the suit, It frequently happens that & party asking for & vepire at the hands of & Justice receives it, and laces it in the bands of a Covstaole who hLas en bought up, and in this mauner obtaws bis own personal friends to it upon the case. In this case it is steted that the dofendant had se- oured tho servicesof Constable Bartells, who had the jury selected, and were below swaiting for thio Justice to issuo the vemwe, whea 1t would be served on the men thus salected, and by this sharp practice the defendant would have italthis own way. Justice Austin discovered the trick and informaed bim, that he should place th venire in the hands of s Constable who wovld select a fair and impartial jory. For this prompt action on the part of Austin’ tho change af venue waa askod and grantod, and terminated asabove. ltistobe boped tbar all Justices will follow the example of Justica Austin, and stop this infamons practice of packing jurésby dishonest officials. —— GENERAL NEWS.
