The good people around Humbolde Park, that pretty spot in the vicinity of North and Calumet avenues, are much incensed at what they charac- terize Lhe outrageous conduct of their Postmaster. To-duy noless toan 100 brick dweltings are occupied near there. About three mouths ago the ambitious Humboidt-Parkers decided that they should have a post-oftice all to themselves. They accordingly drew up a petition to have a Postmaster appointed, and about six weeks ago succeeded. The appointee vas George Mugler, an cmplove in a framo fac- tory on Wabash avenue. The site selected for the Post-Office was a nook In the space touching the track of the Chicago & Pacific Railroad Company. “The siructure was a rather unpretentious frame, but was in every way sdupted to the requirements of the settiement, Mr. Mugler saw that the Post-Office was fur- nishea.” He could not neglect his work down town, however, and gave the oflice over to us brother- in-law, Charles Schulls. Schills had worked at anything he could petinthe vicinity, it secme, prior to his assumption of the honors of Post- master. There were grave doubts in the minds of the Humboldt-Parkers, 1t appears, us to the propriety of investing Mr. Schills with the charge.

ROCKWELL, a brother of Frank Rockwell, testified that he calied on Mrs, Rockwell since she left her hus- band. and she then etated it would be fuo hu- milinting to go hack, —tae matter had gone too far. While Nockwell lived at Irving ark witness hiad noziced that Mra. Mitchell was making trouble in e taranly, and witness advised his brother that he shonid get'ber out of the fuwlly, or there would ve troub Mr. E.

Castle testified that Rockwell was a good artist, and favoradly known to the oublic. Wit- ness nad enzuged wim 10 paint bis wife's picture, P. H. Webster had mace a trade with Itockwell 8bout §5, (00 of Tennessee land, anu_had tages payment in work. 1lad confidence in hisskill, MR, FRANK L. ROCKWELI. then took the stand, and went over the history of his married life. His mother-in-law and father- in-law had always boardeu with him. At one tine Mr. Tallnmayge, hiy wife's orother, boarded with them. and wilness allowed his boird to go toward paying for a house he boughtof Tallmadge. Butn I: after paying $1,000 in this way, he found lumself unable to go on with the payments, and way obliged to_give his house up rutlier t let his family sufer.” Witness had sutlered o grent deal of trouble frum his mother-in-law, and she finaily told lum she Lad advised her dunghter to Jeaveim. 1le was jenlous of his wife, because she read gome letiers from an old lover in such a way u8 {0 lead him 10 tnink she cared more for the lover than for him. Witness wasa_little sensitive iu this direction. ~ He had made about 80,000 in the nast four or five yuars, and during the last six monthe hua spent 3600 or $700 in the bouse. = At present he bad ou hand S600 worth of cash orders to e fitlea. Tn regard to the Stewart trouble, witnees said Stewart had formed an animosity 10 him because he had insmuated his wite told an_untruti. Mre. Stewart hiad told same rumor carry Almu of, and he denied 1t. te follow- ed, Wwhen witness tripped up Stewart and ot out of the room. The pistel scene was simply as_ fol- lows: 1lie was cleaning his revolver when Misses Alma and Jessie Stewnrt came in, and when they suw bim they cried ont that he was going to shoot hizneelf, and ran out. He never intended to marsy Alma or get his wife out of the way. though he ad- mittea he had maue a foor of himself by asking her to inarry him. He was zoxious for a reconciliation with s wife, and made repeated overturcs In that direction, cven eince she seft iim. He and his wife had folly dia- cussed the Slewart matter. and she had agreed to forzive und forzet. and they could hsve been happy if 1t had not been for the mother-in-law. Ile had tola the lutter o leave the house on vnc occasion when she was interfering, and she had_sai would have her_daughter lcave bim. Roc also denied that Stewart had ever thrashed him, or that they had Lad any altercation over his abdaet- ing Alma. e then detailed the trouble ofe\pril 5, and the abduction of hiy child, all of which has been already publiened. Ar. J. W. Griswold testified that lost Angust ell pnrchased $20 or $30 of goods at his es- tablishment for his wife, and Rockwell had paint- od $200 or 300 worth of portraits for witness' brother's fawmily. MR. H. C. BALLARD was called in rebuttal. 1lle was a brother-in-law of Mrs, Ruckwell. Tne board for his boy was puid o Mra. Mitcnell. Mrs. Rockwell catled on him in reference to her trouble with her husband. On one occasion he went down stairs with Mrs. Rock- well, when Rockwell rushed up to thom and made man to arrest him, - He admitted that Lo had vfinmi nlvhm at ltgnkwell inorder to make mm ve up his own child. B ire” Rockwels was recalled, and testified o the clothing she had received last Augnst from Griswold's, but nothing important was ¢ficited. . : DECISION. The closing arguments were_ then made by conn- gel, and at 3 o'clock the Judge decided the cas Hesaid the case was a very Iamentable aud remark- able one, The parties concerned were ail respect- able, and tho testimany given showed remarkable candor and adherence 1o the strict trath on the part of the witnesses. Ho thought tnere onght to be a reconciliation, if it was possible. Mra. Rockwell was married too young, and. perhaps had only o gitlish fancy for her husband, but the marruuge haa apparently been quite bappy until the affur of a year ago, That affair, in his opinlon. was not to be treated so lightly ns the counsel for Rockell was inclined to treat it. It bore very heavily on the case. Mrs. Rockwell stood before the Court without & smirch on ner character. ~ fihe probably iclded too mach to her mother's interfercnce, But ube had been in o way avparcatly recreant to her marriage vows, while that could not be said to be the case by any means of her husband. But the case was 2o be decided by the laws of nature. The child was at present, being only 2 years and, h') months old, entirely.too young to leave its mother. As regarded the Stewart matter, there was noth- ing tending to show thut Rockwell was trving to get even because he was jealous of his wife, “He was blindly 1nfatuated, 80 that while his wilc was actually living he proposed to marry another wom- an if he could get # divorce from his wife. Ought n court to givea child to sucha man? He ‘might turn uround and eay to his wife that ho had zot the child, and she might go Where she pleased. § e sulfered 1t was the resu tof his own act. s recreancy to his marrisge rolations—an incipient infidelity—wus of such 2 kind that it would ‘leave 2 wound for a long time in his wifc's heart. Such acts nlways were #nd always would be foliowed by their just retribu- tion. If his wife had told him at once after she learned of the Stewart matter that she could not live longer with him, no one would have blamed heriu leaving him. True, she had agreed 1o be reconciled, but could any one forgive and forget injuries Ly agreement? It was not in buman nuture to forget, Buthe wisiied it to be understood that the de- cision was placed entirely on the ground that by the Jaws of nuture the eluld Was too_young to be taken form its- mother's custody. When, however, it cached the proper age it would be most certainly ven into the control of the father. At the same time, he wished to suy to the mother that, viewing the cuse in any aspect, even though she had pus- segsion of the child, she would be very misernble unless o reconciliation would be efiected, and every friend of hers ought to sdvise it, Mr. Storrs mquired 1f Mr. Rockwell could see hix child. The Judge said he certainly could at all reason- able hours, and that an order would be entered to that etfect. Alrs. Rockwell manifested no surprise or pleas- wre at the decision, and left the court-room with the little buy, after recetving the congratulations of some fricndy, Lockwell, however. seemed en- tirely overcome with the disappointment, and sat motionless, unable to restrain bis teurs, until o friend came up and led him out. CITY CERTIFICATES. THE COUNSEL FOR HENRY FULLER, appellant in the city certificate case. filed yeater- day, in the Appellate Court, u brief, most of the polnts in which have already Leen given, but some of which, being iu reply to the anawer of the de- tendant, are summarily given. Defendantaverred, a8 a matter of fact, thut the city levied city taxes onan asicssment made by city oflicers in 18 1874, and 1874, and also that a large amount of tuxes are duein those years, so levied, and np- pilcable to pay the debts. Couasel claims that, as a matter of law, no such facts could exist. In Augnst, 1670, the Constitu- tion, which required collection of the revenue and sale of land for taxes only throngh general connty ofticers, took eflect. In January, 1871, a bill was prepared to carry vut this purpose, by a Commitree of the Senate, with which Mr. i1 B. Hurd, the reviser of the statutes, was in consultation. ' City oficers interfered and' prevented the introduction of the bill. Then tue city continued to proceed in nrohibited methods to collect the taxes and ussess- ments of 1 In the cases of Webster vs. The City of Chicazo, and 1fills ve. The City of Chicago, the action of the city was overruled. The city ofi- cers attempted to usen wpectal act for the colicetion or the taxes of 1871 in Seplomver, 187 after the General Levenne law. ' passed March 23, 1 had gone into force. In Lucy Smith vs. Chicago ana Andrews ve. Toe People, this special uct was upier. To levy the taxes of 1872, the oficers proceeded with the machinery of the'old charter. In Andrewe vs. The Peoplc it Wwas determined that this machinery kiad ueen abolished before the step was taken, and the smient and levy of that year was ill he city taxes of 1873 were levied uncer Bill In The People vs. Ots It was held that it was 500. impracticable to collect city taxes under that Iaw. ‘e bill was amenced, and the levy for 1874 made underit. InTne People vs. Cooper the Supreme Court decided that¥ech acts as these were pro- hinited by the Constitution, Counsel for the plaintiff aileges that the acfendants vet up m justi- tication (hat taxes ievied muy be unticipated, and that the present charter of = Chicago and revenue law require the antici- pution of the revenue by a year. To this | is replied by coungel tor appellant thut there s no vrovision of law for farming, selling, or leasing revenues in Hlinvis. Dbut that the coliection of R es through the usual machinery may be anticipated by voluntury payment to the taxing corporation, the tax-payer receiving ita quittance which, if presented at the proper time to the Coliector, will ve creditea as allowed by the Roud law. 1y that law 1218 provided that, after it has been determined what amouut of rosd-making and bridge-buidding shall be done during the year, it is aliowable tor any tax-payer to du labor or furnish materml for either of these. purposes and to receive a voucher therefor, which voucher may be wused by @ him for the payment i part or i whole ot his {ndividual road tax, when the time comes for the payment of the taxes. No tax, says coun- sel for appellant. is regarded by 1linots lawyers as in the Treusury unil the money gers there.” It is a mero deot of chose iu action. 'The authoritics quoted are the reports of the Comptroller of Chi- cu50 and the Common Council proceedings, to the etlect that tnere are largze amounts of back taxes for yeurs prior to 1877 which ure ot yet in the Teeusury; also decision of the Ilinofs Supreme Lourt in cases where the acliuguent taxpuyer hus been #ued in debt for bis taxes, and that minner of collection bus been upheld, thus indieating. it is alleged, that a tax 18 nol a thing regarded 08 money i the Tressury, but sometiung which can be sued for and - recovered. The law, it i3 allewed in couclusion, docs | ot require the anticipation of the revenue, but, on the coutrary, requircs the levy to be mude and toe money 10 be i toe Treasury substantiully before the expenditure can begin. The theory of counsei for appellant, apparently, it thata city should durme the fiest quartr of it fiscal year. which would, accordiug to the statute, extend from April 1 of 1878 to the end of Junc of 1576, make its appropriations for the ensuing year, commencing April 1, 1879; that in August or Saptember it should certify to the County Cletk tie ainount of money approvriated; that the collection of this appropriation would begin in_Decemucr. and that 1t would ve substantially in the Treasury oy April_of 1879, when the nest fivcal year would begin, Assuming that any such tieory as this in” correct, however, it will be necessary for the city'to change ifs fiscal year back to April from January, where it now 15, nnd also to run for one year without any money ut all, or else to nse for its support. the money pledged for the pavment of cerilicutes of deotédness or warrante, anidea not to be cont emplated for a moment.
