Triat or Ligvr. Cuarues WILKES, CONCLUDED. The Court met at 10 o’clock, A. M., precisely, all the members present. The Jup@r Apvocate, after commenting on the extraordinary and unprecedented course adopted by Lieut. Wilkes, in making his defence before the Court a vehicle of personal abuse and slander on himsell ed permission to be allowed to put in a replication to that portion of the defence which was of a purely personal nature, and not connected with it, as_an act of justice due to himself, both in his individual and official capacity. After a short consultation, the Court refused to allow the application of the Judge Advocate, as they did not consider it a matter appertaining strictly to the case, and it could not, therefore, properly be attached to the record. The Jupge Apvocare owes it to himself as well as the public, to publish his replication to the foul slanders which were so liberally heaped upon his head. by Lieut. Wilkes in his defence, and which were evidently intended for eflect elsewhere than on the Court; as is shown by the fact{ that it has been printed in pamphlet form for distribution. Be- sides this, we will venture to say there is not a mem- ber of the Court who heard the defence read, but considers ita wanton and undeserved attack on the Judge Advocate, who has faithfully discharged the arduous, and frequently unpleasant duties of his station in a manner which plainly shows that he had buta single eye to theY meting out of nothing but “equal and exact justice” to all concerned in this affair. The doors were closed, and the Court re-com- menced its deliberatiens on the case before them. Ataquarter before three o’clock the doors were again opened, and the Court having arrived at ade- cision in the case, and the record and documents connected with the trial, together with the finding of the Court, were sealed upand directed to be trans. mitted to the Department at Washington, for revi- sion and approval. , . The great mass of evidence and accompanying documents which it is necessary to examine, in or- der to form a correct judgment on the finding of the Court, it is likely will occupy the Department some two or three weeks, until which time it will not be divulged. Inthe mean time, the whole case having been spread before the public through the columns of the Herald, the community will no doubt arrive at a verdict which will have a bearing on the cha- racter and reputation of Lt. Wilkes, be it for weal or wo, through the whole course of his future exist- ence. The Court adjourned until Thursday morning at 10 o’clock. Conrt of Common Pleas, Before Judge Ulshoe fler. Serr. 7.—Wright vs. Hart, sheriff, §c.—The jui gave a verdict in favor of defendants, valuing the property. at $516. foratio Hinchman and Monmouth B. Hart, vs. The Mayor, §c.,of New York.—The plaintifis, in the fall of 1840, were Commissioners of Registry in the Eleventh Ward. Knowing there is no use in having a good office without a good bill, they charged for 62 days, being, at $2 per day, $124. The Comptroller demurred to the time occupied, as it was more than had been claimed for by any of the Commissioners in the other wards, and paid them $100 each. To recover the remaining $24, separate actions are brought. They claim for three orfour days after the election, as well asprevious to it. The plaintiff’s contend that there was more work to doin the 11th than in other wards. The Court remarked to the jury that they must deter- mine from the evidence whether or not the plain- tifls were entitled to pay for all the time they de- mand—if so, they were authorized to bring in a ver- dict to that effect.

Iderman West moved that it be read and refer- red to a select committee, which was seconded by Alderman Davies. Aldeaman Lee denied that not more than one person who had received contracts from the Com- mon Council while the democratic party were in power, had been guilty of such conduct. 2 Alderman Davies said that James Sally had paid nearly all he had given his men by such means. Alderman Smrra said he could not see what a special committee could do with it, as ithad been a common practice, and as many of the men had been cheated out of al! they had earned, it was bet- terthat they should be paid in dry goods than no- thing else. It was finally reterred to Alderman West, Carman, and Leonard, for their action. A petition from the Southwark Fire Engine Com- ny, No. 38, to refund $150, which was expended y them for room hire, where the company has met for the past year, and also to grant them a loca- tion for their engine and apparatus. Alderman Lee and Purpy both advocated the wishes of the petitioners. e Alderman Gepyey said that the Harlem railroad had possession of the place desired by the fire com- pany, and could keep it in spite of the Common mon Council. That it would cost more to alter the railroad house than build a new one; that the com- mittee of which he was a member, were anxious to build a house for the company in Chambers street, but the engine company would not let them. He concluded by saying ‘that they could not have the Harlem railroad house if they would.” Alderman Jones said they “ held over” after the first day of May, and therefore they were safe in poses ols asthe counsel of the Board had also de- cided, Alderman Purpy moyed that it be referred to the Committee on Fire and Water, which was adopted. , ner of Committecs.—The Committee onLamps and Gas, to which was reterred the lighting of East Broadway with gas, reported adversely, owing to the lack of gas, as is alleged by the committee. The committee say that the company will light east Broadway, as well as all other streets, when the works on the East River will be completed, which Alderman Smith said he thought would be done in some few "i from present appearances. Alderman Davies and Batts, who signed the report both sustained it, and the latter stated that each lamp supplied by the gas works, wasata loss of some few dollars per annum. Alderman Purpy said that the company had first obtained an exclusive privilege from the Legisla- ture, which was sanctioned by the Common Coun- cil, on the company’s entering into a contract to sup ply the public lamps with gas when desired. That they failed to perform such contract—that their stock was very valuable, and that they should arpely thn city when desired, even if it was at a small loss Alderman Batis said that the conditions were, that they should supply all the gas. that was “‘rea- sonably desired,” and not that which was unrea- sonably called for. _ Alderman Smrrx said that the company entered into this contract some thirteen years ago, and that they had} only introduced gas into twoshort streets, except those of a business character. Alderman West said he believed that the com- pany had done all that their contract rquired. Alderman Davies contended that the meaning of the contract entered into between the city and com- pany, was that the latter should lay pipes through all streets where ihe custom obtained from private peer dk pay fon the loss pemaibed by pe ia su; ‘ing the ic lamps, and read an opw be livered some years since by a law committee of the Common Council to this effect &: After a little more pea ay expended by the mem bers, it was referred a te commitage erngnd the report, so as to compel the company to part of East Broadway, in which pipes are already jaid. ty Pr the Board of Assistants.—A resolution to refer tthe Committee on Wharves the subject of supplying a proper place to accommodate the Freneh Steamers in this port, was concurred in. ‘A resolution to abolish the appointment of the Price Twa Cents twelve marshals placed in power to assist in closing upthe meat shops, was concurred in. | Alderman Davis introduced a resolution calling upon the Comptroller to report the amount of money paid these twelve marshals, and the sum paid each. The Board of Assistants were then notified that the Board of Aldermen was ready to meet them in Jowr Battorr.—The returns of the Chief Engi- neer were received and read. F i ‘The resignation of Nicholas Duff, as Inspector of Lime, was accepted, and James Cowl appointed in his place. ‘ James H. Kellum and George Hamilton were ap- pointed day police officers of the first ward. William H. Leavy, Marcus Nutting, Enos Bur- rows, Alexander Von Pfister and Francis Harvey were appointed City Weighers. ; Horace Reed was appointed Measurer of Char- coal in place of John M, Reed. 2 William Heyer, appointed Wood Inspector of the 19th district was transferred to the 17th. Patrick McArdle, the celebrated pipe layer, was then appointed one of the deputy keepers of Black- well’s eland by a vote of 18 to 12, Alderman Gedney youn in the negative with the demoeratic mem- ers. William Snell, Peter Sause, Benjamin Wood, Absalom G, Dixon, Jacob 8. Brown, J. L. Stouten- bergh, Alexander P. Crane, William Innes, John Salmon, Thomas J. Shankland, Charles Little, Asa WWelden, Horace Howell, and Harold Doliner, were removed from tne office of City weighers. Harman C. Raul, Anthony M. Costar, Benjamin B.

Curtis Betts was appointed inspector of _fire- wood for the ,12th District, in place of Stephen Penedict.. The Joint Ballot then adjourned, and the Board of Aldermen resumed business.” After passing a resolution, authorizing the Counsel of the Board to withdraw all suits commenced re- lative to the non-payment of the salaries of the Judges of the Court of Sessions, and authorizing the Comptroller to draw his warrant to pay the costs incurred insuch suits—the Board adjour ned to Monday next. ; A number of the seats above the supper table in the tea-room was, as usual, trade de by some dozen loafers, who have no right nor claim to the public feed, neither for their public services nor any other cause. The names of all these interlopers will be published on Tuesday next, if they are found at the table on Monday night. Boarpor Assistant ALDERMEN—SrectaL Mrer- in@, Sept. 8.—Aasistant Alderman WaNERMAN Was called by the President to the Chair. | Papers from other Board—concurred in. In elie paying Samuel W. Hurd, and others, $111, awarded for widening Chapel street. In favor of reducing rent to W.C. Taylor. Assessment for regulating and paving 15th street, 8th to 10th avenue. le * In favor of pa ing. the inspectors of election held for choice of Chie! Engineer. In favor of filling asunken lot in 27th street. | Motions and Resolutions.—On motion of Assistant Ald. Nesarrr the ordinance relating to a reduction of salaries was taken up. a _Assist Ald. Perrigrsw moved to amend by stri- king out the portion relative to watchmen Assist. Ald. Brown moved to add 25 cents per day to their pay. Assist. ‘hia.c. J. Dover moved to make the pay $1,124 Instead of $1. He also moved to postpone the subject to the next meeting of the board—all of co were lost. The ordinance was then adopted to 3. 7 By Assist. Ald. W. Donor, to reconsider the ordi- nance to regulate the water-works as returned by the Mayor, with his objections.—Adopted. By the same, in favor of again passing the ordi. nance, notwithstanding the objections. F _ Mr. Scores said he was opposed to the feature in itrelative to pumps, still there was a necessity that the ordinance should pase, and he would vote for it. Assist. Ald. Dopar said amendments could be made afterwards. 0 Assist. Ald. Brown thought the ordinance one which the Board ought never to adopt. Assist. Ald. Nessrrt replied. Assist. Ald. Waterman alluded to the danger of passing an ordinance under the promise of future amendments, 4 A message was received from the other Board, stating that it was ready to meet this in joint ballot, and a recess was taken for that purpose. After a short absence the members returned, when they took a further recess for the arose of paying their respects to the tea room. On reassembling, the ordinance relative to the Croton acqueduct was again taken up. F A : Mr. Scores offered remarks in relation to it. A call was then made for the reading of the or- dinance, which was agreed to, and sometime occu- pied, from its great length, in the operation. The ayor’s objections were then read; they are prin- cipally aimed at the direction of the Croton acque- duct being kept in the hands of the joint Croton water committee of both boards, in cases where amount of expenditures may exceed $100, the com- mittees acting, by the means, in an, execative as well as a legislative capacity, which is a dangerous power—it is also opposed to the fone being suffer- ed to go to decay, or the wells being filled up, &c. Assistant Alderman Perricrew opposed the idea contained in the ordinance of a large batch of offi- cers being created, such as five commissioners, &c. He said that one was quite sufficient—the salaries of the various officers would eat upall the revenue that could be derived from the water—he was also opposed to the power given by itto the Croton com- mittee, nothing being in the ordinance requiring the committee to report their doings to the Common Council—it also gives them the power of fixing rents, &c., which he was opened to. Assistant Alderman W. Dopee said that only one of the commissioners was to be paid—the others being selected from eran of leisure and ability, many of whom could be found who would willing- ly undertake the task. As to the committee not reporting, the gentleman of the 17th must recollect that an ordinance exists requiring every committee to report its proceedings. The Mayor is in error when he says the Croton committees are to be abso- lute under the ordinance—it is oie stated that they shall not expend any money but what has been specifically appropriated by the. Common Council. In regard to ti Saag resolution has already been introduced in the Board of Aldermen, which ob- viates the objection, and he had no doubt but they will be preseryed. As to power, he would prefer seeing it retained by the Common Council in its own hands rather than delegated to independent de- partments. He hoped the gentlemen would pass the ordinance asit is, and permit the department to be organized. Mr. D. mnde quite a brilliant, and, (con- idering that he had a lot of stubborn locofocos op- pesed to him,) rather an effective speech. He was followed b Assistant Alderman Water- Man, who supported the objections of the Mayor, and spoke of the necessity of a right start on so momen- tousa matter. He hoped it weuld not pass this eve- ning. ‘ Assistant Alderman Scouss said that he was glad the discussion had taken place. Gentlemen racked their ingenuity in discovering error, and so little being shown, was a compliment to the ordi- nance. He spoke for some time with much energy in favor of the measure. : After other remark the question was put, and the ordinance pe one The Board then adjourned. General Sessions, Before the Recorder, Judge tLynch and Aldermen Carman and Bonnell. James R. Wuarrine, Esq., District Attorney. Serr. 7.—The trial of dames Edgerton, for rob- bing the store of Felix Rousse, in Duane street, was put off till the next term, his counsel alleging that a material witness was absent who could swear that he sold him the coat that was found upon his back, which had been stolen from the store of Rousse. There is no doubt he can get Mbp men to swear to such fact, but the main object of delay, without doubt, is fo get | released on bail. keep an eye onhim. Disorderly House.—Emily Tooker, who keeps ahouse of prostitution at No. 3 Benson street, was tried for keeping a disorderly house, and one that disturbed the neighbourhood. Dr. McGroriy, formerly a speculator in Texas lands, who resides at No. 4 inthe same street, tes- tified that the house was the resort of public male and female prostitutes at all hours of the night, and was @ nuisance to the street and the inhabitants that resided within it. He said that there were but five Pee in the street, and two of them were used for such purposes. Micmase Qua who resides at No. 5 Benson st., testified that he had seen seven, eight, nine, and ten men buddling into the house together at one time; that he} believed that murders were committed in the house without making any noise. The house 'e shall en was well furnished, and a bar room in the second story; it was a perfect nuisance to the street. Captain Bexson, who resides at Carlton House, said it wasa house of ill fame from common report. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, without leaving their seats. Another Disorderly House.—Mary J. Yates, who keeps the blue frame house No. 2 Benson street, was then tried for keeping a disorderly house. Micnart Quin, was called.—This house - was worse than Mrs. Tooker's—ten times worse. This is blue house No, 2, and is where they make in the streets; Ido not know Mrs. Yates man lived in the cellar, who told me that Mrs. Yates had left the house. Dr. McGrotn, called and sworn.—The blue house is kept by Mrs. Yates ; it is worse than Mrs. Tooker’s house ; fittle children from the age of 12 to 14 are admitted there ; couples of from tweety to forty in number-¢ome there during the night; don’t know her, and don’t want to know her; | think that no rson should sanction or plead for such people, ne how, nor any wheres. ‘The case was submitted without any defence, and the jury returned a verdict of gaits.
