Tt has already been wnnownced that the His- torical Soclety intends Lotore long to mark with sultable tablets the extreme northerly and southerly points of the grout fire, go that future wenorations way form 4 proper idea of ite linmensity, The great trouble in connection with this proposed cumimemuration has boon tuo fact the O'Loary cottayo at No, 17 De Kovon street, fo whose back sled the tiomortal aw kicku: over tho fmperisbubly kerosene ump, js not a particularly desirable place upon whieh to place tablet of murbie. Such au ornumonut upon ite Uopaloted wooden front would be about as out of placo us the diamoud cluster of a botel-clerk upon the grimy sbirt-frontofatrawp. Unless, too, the proposed tablet is (o be of very modu~ rate dimeupions it would take more spacy than the cottage front could epart'te give it standing- room. : Ut ie pleasant, however, to be able to state that tho nombers of tho Historical Rbeiety see. or think thoy sve, a way out oft tho didieulty, The O'Leary property tins been purchased by a Ho- heminn hutchor named Anton Kollar, whe in- tends to build pon it very shortly, and who, it Is hoped, will ralso wypon tho site of" the eattnxo unedifice at once worthy of Willtam O'Lenry, the reeatettrant cow, tho brittle off lamp, tho Dlg fire that resulted from tho apparently triling eplande in which thay pliyed thor part, and tho tablet that is to commemorate tho big fh After much researon a THEONE repdrter suas geedod in nding Mr, Kollar at his moat-shop No, 08 West Nocteonth street, aid nt ones ens doavered to get bin to make a deciaration of intention regarding the interesting and bisturs foal pleco of Tand whited ints come [nto his poss serslon.

Tr wis, Apparent that Mr. Kullae was desirous of baying tho atone front und the tablot, and, at the same tline, wishad to, dispense with tho ad ditfonnl expense of the former, and, though it seemed fromthe way ho talked that n voi promise mlvht bo possible, yet it was quite clear that unieas something was done tho tablut wottht have tu be set anwnust bricks or even planted against tho feant of a wooden structure, Ho explained furthor that the building bo proposed erecting was to be three stories in bight and to ho tud aaa private dwelling.

Mow Marks, the Baltor, Played In on tho Criminal Court. . Montion has been mado of tho fact tnt Juigo Hawes bas under considerauon tho question of whother or not ha can sot neide tho Judqinent taken on bonds In tho Criminal Court after tho surrender of tho prisoner by tho bonisimon. It Isa knotty provlom, and Just now one af the grontest importance ta those who have beon uns fortutiato ouough te have Judgment entered agolnst thom, and who aro doug everything In thelr power to clone tHomselvor, either by tho surrender of tho prisoner or by othor ineans. In the discussion of the qttestion yesterday by attornoys around the Criminal Court somo sug: wealions were tnnile which it may not be amiss to Iny before tho public, nor yet to hive dudgo: Hawes’ attention called to, ospeoinily if ho should dueldo that the surrender of the prisonur must work tho setting aside of tho Judgmant, One case was cited in which tho judginent and costs had both oun set aside, not by the aurrons derof tho principal, bowovur, but by the sur render of another criminal. and tho course pur sued iy tho mutter was severely criticised, Tho ensa In point wis that of &. N. Murks, a profes- atonal bondsman, or ono who Issald tu algn bonds and tako riaka of tho kind fora consillerntion. Te wont on ono Purdy's bond,—a notorious oronk,—severm! yours no, It apnenrs, in tho autn of $900, and when Purdy wita wanted for trial he was not forthcoming, though Marks triad to get bimto suve himself, tut, ns n last resort, he or his uttorney arranged with the State's Atturney to turn Up another inissing prisoner, one tn who ho was supposed tu have no interest, provided tho $500 dofawlt ngulnst him on uevount. of Purdy's nbsenee should bo set aside. This pris~ onor wag ony Morgan, who was brought froin St. Loula a fow weoks ugo, and Wednesday, in tho ell of the acire ficing calendar, when tho Purdy-Marks default was reached, THE HARGALN WAS MADE known tothe Court, and tho arengoment ae concurred in, oven to tho extent of setting aside tho costa, which was uleurly wrong. Dut tho milk in tho cocoanut, the attorneys contended, was not so mitch In tho bistory ro- lated, nor yot In tho questionable urrauwemont or birguln entered Into with tho Btute’s-At+ torncy by which Marka cacuped paying $600 to the county, but in the inanner of Murgun’s re- turn, In’ begging olf Macks represented Unt Morgan had been brought back at his Marka’) Individual expense, but, necording to the re- porter’s Informant, suck was not thy caso, for whilo it cost filtn #60 to cancel an obligation of £600, it cost tho State just S001 ‘That ls, Morgan was brought buck upon a requisition, and tho ollicer who brought him collected for milouze and expenavs froin the State the nmotmt named. In other words, Mr, Marka advanced $40 to tho olllcor with tho understanding tit be wns to ros culve $450 In return, which was pawnshop gon- erosity, tosay tho least, and aubseytiontly tho oflicer colleuted $00 from the peuple of the Stata, with which he could do as bo plensed,—rein- burse Marks, or put it In bis own pocket, It wilt be seen from this little transaction, thorefore, that it will bo necessary tor Judgo Hawes In gotting aside Judgments or defaults upon tho return of tho principal, or some othor lost criminal, to move glow, for it is Q very onsy mutter for vondsmen to muko money, and for the Stato to lose a great deal ‘in just such douls, Ho shoutd seo toitin the futuro, nnd no doubt will, that the machinery and inoney of the State is not usod by bondsmen in defauit to help thom out of their troubles, and the fewer sich bargains entored Into by the Btato’s-Attornoy the better, 1t {8 wall onoueh to use ull the powornt the commund Of the Strte to pring, refugees from justice to an accountability, when thoir {m= portance will warrant tho oltiny, but it would scomin bad taste to- employ tho bondsmen of other criminals as tho agents of tho Inw, asin the Marks cago, and arrange with thom In ad- vance to aot nside judymonts batiging over thom In consideration of tholr services. ‘To what oxtent this practice has heretofore pera isnot known, but Judge Huwes says 0 bad no ides that tho return of Morgan MEANT AN EXPENSE to the Stato when tho Judgment was bojug sot aside, but, if bo had, things might huve been dlferont. Mr. Mill¥ also denios any knoweled, of any claim having been presented agulnst the State In the matter, and says he hae beon de- colvedif one wus. Tho way to prevont such transactions in the futuro is plain. ‘Coutts, tho State can be saved any und all expense in such Uargalne by tho Judge of the County Court re- fusing to cortify to tho Governor to tho DIN of expenses of tho person returning tho prisonor, which he would chcorfully do if asked, Se eee eee MARRIAGE LICENSES, .
