A HORRIBLE CASE. Judge Moore was engazed ashort time yester- day in Learing a horrible divorce case_of Margaretha Koufman vs. Joseph Kaufman.

She seems to have'believed him, and. he left her and married daughter, a irl barely 14 years ofd, by whom he had one child now about 18 months old. Ouly part of the tes- timony was sdauced before the Judee to estab- Jish the case, the mother and daugliter being e only witnesses, when it was found neces: sary to amend the bill formally, by allowing the complainant to sue by ler next friend, she be- ing under ame. The case was, . therefore, postponed, but - the Judre said the evidence was suflicient to couvici Kaufman of bigamy, and a warrant was_ at once 1ssued for his_arrest, and examination before Justice D’Woll, with a view of baving himn bound over 10 the Criminal Court.

The costumes worn differed but little from those usuxzlly worn on such occasions, except thata large number represeated characters from the Old Testament, and nearly all those who wore dominocs were conspiciions by their false, crooked moses. In fact, every one that wanted to enter the lower halt uumasked was required to put on a semi-circular false nose. One gentleman. who thousht his nose was al- ready crooked cooush without an appendis, re- fused to_comply with the rule, and Wwas uncere- meniously bounced by a policeman. ‘The hall was finely decorated, and there were & number of tents in which were shown ‘-Yomtefige ™ living curiosities. the principal feature of the evening was the performance of a great bistorie- al tragic-Cramatic-farée-comedy in five-acts, with duets. medlevs, arias, and tablean vivants, en- titied ““Esther,” written expressly for this oc- casfon by the great playwright, Max Stern. 'fhe characters were Abasveras, Hawman, Mordecal, Schote, and . Lsther. The acting could bardly be called first- class, but the tableaus were lunusually fine and well arrsuged. The * Purim sute”?=that is, sujger—was 1l a feature of the'evening, and WeWrineipal dishes consisted of smoked beef, smoked fish. and 2lwost all - other kinds of smolked disbes except ham. ‘The smoked dishes are served on these accasions because they have to be hung up belore they are dove, and are, therefore, symbolic of the hanging of Haman.

Ouly $150 in scrip were paid out, the Comp- troller’s oftice being clused at noon so thut the calcimtiners could work. A great many of the emoloyes in the “rook- erv? aré getting anxious, and rumors that Maror Heath will run again are very soothing. A permit was issued to John A, Gage to erect two two-story und basement stone-front dwell- ings, each- 20x72, in Groveland Park, at a cost of $9,000. « A .

Nothing contained in this order will be £0 construed as to_prevent members of the force from arresting wn thicves or va- grants on $ight, or from making arrests and ren- dering assistance to euch otierin cases where im- mediate action is necessary. THE COUNTY BUILDING The Committee on Jail and Jail Accounts met yesterday aund audited bills amounting to $300. The County Treasurer sold bonds yesterday amounting to $10,000. Some pew bouds of the Cepomination of 51,00 were received from the printer, but the Dumbers on them were found 10 be wrong, and they were sent back. John Pilgrim, who was sent out to Lemont to investigate the condition of poor families living there, has returned, and states that he accom- plishéd a_great deal of work, but is_not quite ready to make his report, which will be given in a few days.

The County Agent sent her to a Iying-in hospital, and will probably take steps to bring Mager to an account. County Commissioner Lenzen, of the Public Charities Committee, paid a visit to the County ' Agzent’soffice yesterday and procured the dis- ciarge of eight visiting agents, or “visitors,” as they are called. for the resson that the county could" not continue their servives for a few hours each day, when all the visits to the dwellings of appheants for ‘relief could be mude as well without the employmeut of the eight zeatlemen who have: been thus cut off, and whose appointments were presumably made at the instance of politicians. - In the Crimiaal Court yesterday Thomas Carey pleaded guilty of larceny, and was sent to jul for three montbs. Joshua Richards, who was indicted on the charge of 1alse pretcoses, was tried and acauitted, the Judse stating there Wwas othing in the case, and. directing the jury 10 acquit. Frank Mahoney, aliss’ Keene pleaded guilty of burglary, and was remanded to await sentence.- Thomas Holden, Tor Jarceny, was sentenced to the Reform Schiool for three years. He pleaded guilty. John Murphy and Henry Cockle were charged with robbery, tricd, and acquitted. It apaears that Joe Gorman did not get out of jail in a clandestine manner. In one case azainst him the Grand Jury returned “No bill,? and, without, being awaré that - there were others against him, the clerk having the matter in charge potificd_the Javer, and Gorman was re- leased from the custody of that oflicer. Soon afterward it was learned that Joe was wanted on other indictments, and an officer was sent for him and brought bim in, and he went before Judge Williams and gave bail for his appearance, whea wanted, in-the sum of $1,500, 'Thomas B. Murphy and Louis Febling fv becoming his sureties. The bond was given on The 5th inst. At'a conference hetween the County Attor- ney and the Committee on Town and Town A counts vesterday, the former gave the opinjon 1hat Town Supervisors were entitled to but $1 per day in eases where they acted as Overscers of the Poor within their own_towns, and not $L.50 per day as las been understood by them, and us returned in their “bills to 'the Board. There are two provisions ic_the law bearing on the watter, and Mr. Wiilett holds that the Supervisors are cntitied to $1.50 per day onls when_they go outside of their own towns to act as Overseers of the Poor. The Commit- tec had the bill of the Supervisor of Lyons, under consideration,—which was rendered ab the rate of SL50 per day, as has been customary for st oflicers to do,—and in accordance with the opinion of the County Attorney it is prob- able they will recommend thas S1 per day be allowed ‘where the service as Overseer of the Loor has been rendered within the town, but in all cases where he acts as Supervisor he-fs en- titled to S1.50 per day. THE CUSTOM-HOUSE. Two hundred and tifty barrels of alcohol were exported from this city yesterday. The Sub-Treasury disbursements yesterday were $12,000in currency, aud the 4 per cent sub~ seriptions $2,000.

Commissioner Ioyne dismissed the ease against John Fitzgeraid, of No. 1146 West Mad- ison, accused of selling liquars und cizars with- out a license, it appearing that Fitzgerald was Dot, as alleged, the real proprictor of the place aud that the latter individual, one McDonousl, was duly provided with the necessary Govern- ment permission to carry on the business. Things wore a decided air of business around the pew Government Building yesterday, a force of about 400 men being employed on the entire structure, the upperstories and the base- meunt, which is to serve for a temporary Post- Ofice. The work of cleaning up the basement, breaking stone for the com- crete flor with wluch it is to be provided, and, in short, all the nccessary preliminary business connected with the fitting-up of the new quarters, was going on expeditiously. The time between now and the 1st of Aopril is short, but it will be improved for all it is worth, to the cnd that the Post-Office may gather itszlf up aud move, mail-bag and bagpage, on or about the date last named. 3 ACQUITTED.
