SOMETHING ABUUT THE CONFLICTING TESTIMONY. ‘The case of Hon. Isaac 2. Chrisuancy against Lilie M. Christiancy, in which plain «ff sues for a divorc= on Lhe ground of adultery, which the wife denics, and files a cruss vit vuargi ig cruel treatment, neglect, &., and asks a di- Yorce and the award of alimony, continues to be the subject of comment in this city. Itmay be said thet the testimony of Giro asto hia! alleged adulrery with Mrs. Christiancy at the ‘St. James hotel is not conclusive, as heretofore explained In TH Stak, and that his action in the case 1s severely criticised by many, some taking the ground that he should not be be- Heve The princtpai charge tn the bill of Mr. (bristiancy is adultery committed at the St. James hotel, in tbis city, ou Christmas day, 1879, and, as the public is aware, there 1s a con- fiet of testimony. GIRO TESTIFIED IN NEW YORK before Commissiouer King that he arrived here December 24th and registered at the St. Jaa; that om Christmas morning he \oid the cierk at the hotel that he had received a telegeam trom his wife, whom he expected, and that he to = | Mrs. C. to the hotel in a hack and remain? with her in bis room some hours and then took her home, going in the same carriage which they came in. Mrs. Chrisilancy denies Giro’s whole statement, with the exception thas he Went with ber and her friend Miss Meioy, on December 24ih, to Harvey’s, aud that he was at her house Ou Christmas day, when he proposed to marry ber, and w-serts that she was not out of the louse with him nor with any other per- 800 On Christmas day. THE PRCSECUTION BXPECT TO PROVE ‘by two beckmen that Mrs. Christlancy was at the St. James; that one of these men drove them to the hotel, and the other returned with them; and,to al-o prove tbat she was there by the testimony of Dr. O. M. Bail, formeriy Mr. Christ-ney's private secretary, ane now a clerk in the Interior department; aiso, by the clerk at tae hovel, Mr. Holschuh. The latter some months ago mad* an affidavit as toa party Tegistering at the hotel under the nameof Kiil Giro, On the aiternoon of December 24th, 1879; 2s To said party being assigned toa room, and stowing him (‘be clerk) a tel Uhat bis (the party's) wife was coming on tne morning or December 25th; as to the lady arriving about or shortly after 1 o'clock that day and guing to his (G.’s) room; as to he (the clerk) having been informed that the lady was not the wife of Giro, wheu he informed the latter that he must give up his room, which he did, and left the house. Every line of his testimony was strongly in fa- vor of the compiatnant until! it come to tdenti- fying the lady; which he failed to do, and posi- lively asseried -that Mrs. ChrisUancy was not the person. It was supposed tnat the bottom had dropped out of Mr. Christiancy’s case there und then, aod doubtless that would bave ended the case in which Giro was charged with betag the paramour, had it not been for the alfficuity between Blood and Giro in New York, which resulted in procuring the testimony of Giro, the purport of which has been pnblished. DR, BALL IN AN INTERVIEW with a reporter las stated that he was present at the St. James on Christmas day, 1579; Uaat he had 4 conversation wjth the clerk, Mr. Hol3- chub, as to the woman With Giro; that H. gave ‘bin a knowiug look and sald of course he Knew Who she was—that she was Mrs. Senator Caris- Uapey, and that he could and wouid identity the woman as Mrs. C, at any time, for he knew her Well when she lived in Alexandria; described her particularly, «e. MR. HOLSCRUH DENIES Dr. Ball’s statement. He says it is true Dr. Ball was at the hotelon that day. Thea re- peating what he (H.) had testified to, about Giro (Whom he had never seen before) comlog there and sho him the telegram tn the morving. he s that about one o'clock, or shortly after, Giro came there ina hack with a woman, who be (i.) supposed was his (.’s) wife; that shortly after Ball came fn and aske: if a gentleman and lady had not arrived in a hack. He (Mr. H.) sald “You mean Giro. He came here a while ago With his wife.” Then Ball said “I'll teli you something fn confidence She is not his wife, but the wite of a high go’ erbment official about equal to a Cabinet min- ister.” After thinking over the matter he came to the conclusion, although he was not sure who the woman was, that (as he had always re- garded Ball, his informant, as am honorable lab) be would notify Giro that suca doings Were not allowed there, and sending for him notified him to vacate the Foon, whtcn he did. He was sure at first that the [lady was Giro's wife, and he was loth to believe 1t was not. so, even when Ball told nim, for Giro appeared to be agentleman. It now appeared to him that Ball must have been watching Giro, and hai seen the carriage, for he came inshortly after the arrival of the party. He was certain that he had tesiified as to every polnt of value to Mr. Christiancy, oe Uhat of identtacation, and when Mrs. Carlstlancy was pee be could not idenufy her as the one he saw with Giro, and so testified that she was not. THE MOTION TO SUPPRESS GIRO'S TESTIMONY. Shoula Mrs. Christiancy’s counsel succeed in having the tesitmony of Giro suppressed on the grourndof his betnga particeps criminis the testimony of Holschub, who wa3 Mr. Christ- fancy’s witness, (not being im; able) be- comes conclusive. The counselof Mr. Christ faney witl however, mike a strong fight against the motion ‘to suppress Giro’s testt- mony, and willenudeavor If it remains In the recoid to corroborate It and thusmake 1t evi- dene.

'ASE.—To-day, in the Preachers and the Commissioners. Mr, Editor: After all that has appeared in the daily papers and various local church pubitea- Uons in behalf of the preachers in their fight upon the Commissioners, I have thought thi Gxpresaion of Siew common sense views of & lonker-on migi acceptable to your readers, ‘The preachers of certain denomiaa tons of prot- @3'»nts who have been, for some months past, A.bung. with a double-edged sword, both the Liquor sellers and the District Comulastoners, appear to have concentrated the fight for the me being upon the Commisstoners. The liquor traffic will be left to rest temporarily, exc»pt 30 fsT as needed ag a sheath for the d re- ared for the Officiais At their meeiiag on Monday last the preachers adopted resoluvions demanding the scalps of the present incum- bents, and “tbe appointment of Commissioners Who will faithfully and justly execute the law regulating the liquor traffic,” and asked the joey to back their demand by a meeting to be eld oD Sunday next, At this stage of the proceedings there are Some reflections which must commend taem- selves as Doth interesting and pertineut. In tbe first place, the pastors who have been forcing this fight under the name of “Tne Pas- tors’ Unton,” constitute @ minority of th» Pro- Westant clergy of thiscity. If 1s confined toa few denominations, and in some cases a very Spare representation of the clergy of these sects are enrolied. It may 0e noticeably mentioned that none of the Episcopal clergymen have b2en arties to the fight—preferring dowdtless to e the execution of the liquor law to those properly charged with it, while they attend to the mcre specific duties of their pulpits and pari-hes, which furnish full employment. Otuer denominations might be mentioned to which these remarks would apply with equal force to the large body of their pastors. It Is very noticeable that, the Commissioners, whose official guillotine these preacners are en- denvoring U effect, are the appointees of the direct and persistent. seeking of churchmen and cergy. With the exception of the army officer detailed to act_as Commissioner, these gentie- Mmch were materially aided to their positions by church ipfiuence. This ts notorfonsty true as regards the last appointed gentleman, who Was so prominently @ churenman that he was handicapped in his claim for aoe favor by the offices of president of the Y.M.C.A., Metha- dist Camp meeting association and other church relations which he then bore. Both the civillan appointments bad been sought and urged by gebtlemen identified with Protestant churches. This being true, is it not inconsistent, re vengeful and selfishly unbecoming that certain pastors should now seek to rep! nt the entire Treligious community in demanding the official Scalps Of these gentlemen as trophies of ant- masities engendered from disappointment in the fight in the liquor traffic? The principal oe against one Commissioner has found pubilc statement in the fact that he has liquor Sellers as his bondsmen. One of these bonds- men 1s an office-bearer in the church of the Ascension, & prorainent Christian gentleman, and all are philanthropists of large heart. Is it not an outrage that these gentlemen should be thus placarded by clergymen as morally unfit to answer the legal reqiitrements of bonds- men? Is there not plainly visible on the part of the preachers the froth of indignation af the Commisstoners for thelr refusal to walk Tough shod over the rights of a certain class of citizens known as liquor sellers? ‘The Listory of this bitter fight shows that the fault is with the law, not with the Comn- missioners. The law prescribes when and how a application shall preparea and license grapied. These conditions being compiled With, the applicant has a legal right to a lechse however averse the Commisstoners may be to granting the same. The law does not except localiules where there are churches, School houses and pubitc offices, and tne Com: missioners can only make such exceptions by the exercise of an arbitrary power,urged by the preachers a8 implied by the spirit of the law. By making such arbitrary distinctions between appitcants the Commissionersrob some of righis abd encourage and enrich others. To refuse a0 application on one street and grant another around the corner, both being made tn coo- formity with law, does not lessea the sale of Liquor, but breaks upone man’s business and doubles the patronage of the other. It ts true that one less license is{tsued, but where is the gain morally, or the “protection of the public morals” which the preachers are seeking? ‘The law guarantees certaia rights toall. The Commissioners are as sacredly bound in honor and law to protect Myuor selling citizens In their rights, as churches and camp meetings and preachers and christians in theirs. ‘The rights of all are equally sacred, no matter how Gistasteful 1t may ap, to persons differing one trom the other in views and prejudices. The Commissioners @o not suppress noisy church meetings kept up in some nelgnbor- hoods tll almost midnight for from 6 to 10 Weeks in succession, because they disturb the Test of liquor sellers who live incouventently hear, nor because they are distasteful to per- sons of different religious views in the vicinity. The great body of our citizens know that the present Commissioners are in their ardent sym- pathy with the “protection of public morals’ the peers of the most enthustastic of the clergy. But these officials are responsible to the entire body of citizens and not only to certain relig- tous seets of the ccmumunity. ‘The present demand for new Commissiozers 1s born of the fanaticism engendered in this Nght by a few extremlsts, and does not warrant countenance of the truly religious element O° society. The ferceness of the fizat has un fed the iiquor sellers who have banded for salt Protection, employed counsel to cueckmate each attempted advance of the cle All this would Lave been avolded and much more uc- complished by lookiug up each case of imper- fect application for license, or of violatioa of law after license. In every such case the preachers bad the pledge ofthe Commtsstoners, in the outset, to earnest and Imme tate sup- port. But thts it seems would nos suffice, A Wholesale slaughter of the liquor bus!ness was the object im view, and the Commisstoners are heid up for pub:ic contempt because they would mot become church agents in their oMmictal chairs to acvomplish thisend. Faik-PLay. Improper Punishments, WASHINGTON, Jan. 7, ’81. Editor Star:—There 13 one mode of pw ment practiced in the public schools that should be stopped forthwith—the habit of box! the boys’ ears. On my son going to school last suLoimer, I politely requested the lady teacher, in case he required punishment, not to box his ears, ashe had already become partially deaf from that treatment in other schools. The boy had occasion to remind the teacher of my re- quest. ‘The reply was: “Your mother is not here now.” On Tuesday again, having been slapped on the head, he made the same remark.

Sue says she might lave prosecuted for More extreme Offences and obtained large all- mony, sufficient to make her comfortabie; but as he Congressman advised her not to create a fceandul by pushing the hu.band too hard, she obtained a paltry $30 a wees, whico has’ not been paid to ner for several moaths past. She clsin's that prior to the divorce she was In love W th the Cont man, but not criminal with hm. Afterward, sue says. she had a promise of marriage from him, and does not make it ceur What her relations were. Inferentlaily, however, they were those of a mistress. She also dec!ares that Ube Congressman separated ber fom her husband. He and his friends say Unat the woman was badly struck on him, and threw herself into his arm3 by going to the Captiol to haunt bim, and vetng constantly in hiscompany. The lady gave away her charac- ter several years ago, She maintains that she could have managed Mr. Sayler very easily and made him her hus- band, but for the interposition of another woman—an Ohio woman, too—who had beea divorced irom her husband. The Ohio woman captivated Mrs. Sayler, and the latter, with his new flame, got along smoothly until Mrs. Alexander—the woman first referred to—found out that she had a rival. Mrs. Alexander, so the story goes, obtained access to the room of the Ohio jady (whose name Is suppressed in the Enquirer) and got lon of some letters compromising the Onio female with the Con- gressman. Sne displayed these lotters and charged the Ohio woman with having come between her and her future husband, (Sayler.) This so enraged the Onto jady, (who is mentioned as Mrs. R.,) that she procured a pistol and faced Mrs. Alexander at the hotel, and threatened to shoot her oa sight if she did not let the Congressman slide and stop scandalizing both of them, Afterward, as Mrs. Alexander says, Mra. R. made an organ- {zed effort to drive her outof society, and wrote letters to whatever circles she visited, calling her a “black-matler,” a “dangerous creature,” &c. ‘fhe Congressman was finally so persecu- ted by Mrs, Alexander, who was tne more madly in love with him because she hada rival, and who probably had no other prospect in the World at her age than to marry this man, who is stl] unmarried, that he ran away to the far West, and disappeared for months, abd returned all the letters she sent him. But Mrs. A., relying on his past kindness, thougat the letters had merely come back to her because they bad not found him. Her Drivate affairs, too, were getting aesperate, be- Ing put now out of this hotel and now out of that, and her baggage selzed and held. She began to estimate tbe fact that it 1s better to live under the protection of a poor husband than the best lover. A number of che letters Written by the Congressman to Mra. A. had been kept by ber, and after she began to be- come wild and dangerous the Congressman seat his lawyer in New York to see if she would not give up or sell those letters; but they were her jast strength, and she belleved that the client vee oan for them was Mrs. Kk. tew days before New Year Mr. Sayler re- turned to New York, where Mrs. Alexander aiscovered him. He made an appolatment to meet her at his “business ’ giving the number. She was much reduced—indeed, very Poor. Her clothes had been seized for debt, bat she still managed to maintain a quasi soctal Position. She met Mr. Sayler at the office, and there found a number of gentlemen friends of his. Smith Weed, Tilden’s friend, was present as Sayler’s lawyer. Sayler asked Mrs. Alexander “how much do you want for these letters?” She replied that she never sold letters, but that she might be induced to give them up. He then accused her of persecuting another lady, anc of persecuting him—satd she bad mailtciously circulated slanders, and writ- ten anonymous letters, and that he had his lawyer present, and Proposed to get rid of her once and for all. Smith Weed stoutly sup- ported Sayler, perhaps, from political or other sympathy. Atter having warned the woman—who was Still alady in appearance, neatly dressed, and with @ fine plucky mauner—the ex-Congres:- Man told her that they must t. “You must uot leave me in that way,” she replied; ‘come up town with me tn my carriage and let me explain these accusations. 1 will not leave you in this way.” She says that here she was seized with a fit of hysterics. He says that she was threatening, atd that he got her to the door, got her outside, and then sprung the quick-latch between them. He then says that the gat down or fell down on the floor of the han, kicked up her heels and screamed like a cyprian, and that the Clerks of periods business men and passers by gather around her. A policeman was sent for, and he took this woman—who had been but a few years ago recelved in good society, and had driven ner coupe, and was regarded as a bright, happy lide ‘woman—to the police station just off Broadway, and there she was put into a cell, Uke a common drab or cut-purse. Mrs. A. after being kept in the police station all night was brought before Police Justice Murray, who, influenced in behaif of Sayler by Weed, told her that if she app-ared before him again on charge connected with that affair he would send her.to Blackwell's Island for a year, Mrs. Alexander says she did show some of Sayler’s letters, but only to establish the right of her claim to him. He says she was trying to black. mail him and wanted him to set her up in a fine house, etc. In one of Sayler’s letters to her he writes: ‘Be very careful that you do not irritate your husband and make a public scan- which could do you no good, and would do me at ume an important injury. lama candidate for Speaker of Congress.
