They had separate claims against an establishment in Florida, but agreed to unite them, jointly pursue a recovery, and divide whatever amount might be collected. Itis averred that Messrs.

Action is therefore brought to’ recover the $600 asserted to be due to plaintiff, A verdict will be rendesed this forenoon. For plaintiff, Mr. Bosworth. ney. For defendant, Mr. Bon- Court of Commom Pleas, Before Judge Ulshoeffer. Ocr.3—C.§ B.Marwetl vs. Raph'l M. Gomez —The nature of a" Custom House oath” was fully exemplified on this trial. The detendant had sworn at the Custom House to be owner ol the barque Cuiter,and that no alien had any inter- est in her whatever. Supplies had been furnished by plai tiff to the vessel, at the instance of aman named Sander- man,Who was connected with another named Fitzwilliam, both of whom have gone away,the one to England and the other to New South Wi he bill (which was for shipchandlery) amounted to $237, at a credit of 6 mouths, and was charged to “barque Cutter, or owners.” At the end of the 6 months the bill was unpaid,and the individual note of Sanderman taken. ‘This also remained unpaid. The vessel was lost at sea, when it was ascertained that the defendant had made solemn oath of ownership, and held her registry—he had also insured her, and recovered $6,300 from the company. e present action, to recover the amount, is brought against him asowner, it being con- tended that Sanderman and Fitz williams were aliens, and could not hold an Americen vessel at any rate. For the defence it was urged thatthe defendant, although swear+ ing to be owner, Was not so, but held the voseel as securi- ty for a claim he had against her, and that he paid Sander- man $3,9000f the money he had obtained from the In- surance office—that he never had possession of the ves- and was not liable for the debt. The Court charged the decisions of our Courts have been that notwith- standing the oath of bonafide ownership, if a person makes advances on a vessel, takes her as security, and brings oral evidence tothateifect, he is not held by his oath. Thejury found for defendant. For plaintiff, Mr. Gerard and Mr. Platt—For defendant, Mr. Tucker and Mr. Crapo. Gen Before his Honor the Recorder, Judge Lynch, and Alder. men Crolius and Stewart.

Zabriskie.— ‘Total 20. The Recorder then proceeded to charge the Grand Jury, and in alluding to the list ofcases on the calendar, stated that he regretted to say that crimes of the higher order were ou the increase, while there appeared to'be a dimi- nution of those for smaller offences. His honor overlooked the fact, that gt each session of the Special Sessions, some ten or fifteen petty thieves are disposed of by sentence to the City Pzison or Blackwell’s Island. He also alluded to the great increase of assault and battery suits, and inti- mated that many of them were not worthy of the grave consideration ofthe grand jury orthe court. After allud- ing to the statutes made incumbent upon the court to call the attention of the grand inquest to, they proceeded to business. Upon calling the names of the Grand snd Petit Jurors, two of the former were fined $25 for their non-appearance, and six of the latter in the same amount. Case of Mlerander Danforth—This boy in age, but man in crime, was called jor trial on a charge of grand larceny, in stealing $86 in bank notes from Caleb C. Baldwin, of the Commercial Hotel, 73 Courtlandt street, on the 11th of September, but through the interposition of his counsel, Theoron Rudd, Esq., it was postponed till Friday of this week. Long Shore Thieves.—T wo rough looking long shore men, named William Brown and John Looker, were tried for stealing clothing frem several different persons, valued together at $36. John Gallaghan, of thetow boat Colum- bus, testified to the loss of a coat, pantaloons and boots, valued at $26, and that the pants were found on Brown when he was arrested, and the boots on Looker. It was also proved, that they attempted to break into the cabin of the tow boat Wave, when they were arrested. The jury were somewhat at a doubt, whether to bring in a verdict of guilty of grand larceny or petit, but after an absence of afew minutes, returned:a verdict of guilty of grand larceny, and the Court sentenced them for three years to the state prison. if Aye ‘They were then placed on trial on an indictment for ft larceny, in stealing c othing from the steamboat e; but ‘on the rendering ef the previous verdict, they entered a plea of guilty, and the court, in order that the'sentence should not conflict with the previous one, ordered them to be fined 6} cents each. Officers of the Gourt—At this point, the roll of the offi. cers attending this court, was called, it was ascer- tained that some dozen of them were absent. The Court stated that they should not impose a fine at this time, on those who were absent ; but in future, unless the officers could glve some good reason for their absence, a fine should’ be imposed upon each, whenever the roll was called and they did not answer. colred rogue raised at Trial of Alexander D Thi Snow Hill, Md., was tried for an assault ‘and battery with intent to kill Michael Crown on the 26th of August last. It appeared that Crown was a clerk in the groce storeof Anthony Crown, corner of Anthony and Little Water street, andon the night above mentioned Davis and another whose name is unknown, came to the door about 20’clock and desired admittance. The door was opened, and after purchasing some cheese and smoked beef they asked to ook at some flour. Upon showing it to them, and while Crown was in the act of taking som from the barrel the man who was with Davis struck him on the head with a “sling shot” twicejin succession, and Davis prevented Crown from escaping {rom the door.— ‘The end piece of the “sling shot” was found in the store in the morning after the attack took place. Da- vis was arrested but his companion escaped. 4 Davis told quite a yarn in his defence, and said he'd been to “ Cow Bay,” with a sailor man, and that he went into the store with a man he met near the door—that they drank together, and while Crown was taking the flour from the barrel the man who was with him struck him over the head. That instead of running away as the other man did, he got a lamp and remained in the store until the watchman came in. He was also detended by J. M. Bates, Esq. who con- tended that there was not evidence sufficient to convict his client. Thecourtso charged, and the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. Taking Tea.—David Lofiin, a huge, stfapping negro, was tried for stealing three half chests of tea, valued at $100 94, from the canal boat Great Western, lying at pier No. 4, East River, on the 9th of August last. It was proved that the tea was the property of Messrs. Merry & Van Slyck, of Mohawk, Herkimer county, in this State; that it had beon shipped on board the above named boat, and was stolenon the night before mentioned. The tea was found at the house of | rrisoner, and a white man named “Scotchy,” bring the tea to the house of Grace ina hand-cart. ‘The prisoner cross-examined the witness Herbert, and in addressing the jury endeavored to convey the impres- sion that Herbert knew all about the tea; and when offi- cer Stephens was called upon the stand as a witness, he questioned him very close as to the person from whom he obtained the information as to where the tea was deposited. Stephens modestly refused to com ply witl request, and the Court charged ¢ the only (evidence against the prisoner was that given by Herbert, and that it must rest with them as to the belief in his credibility. After an absence of five minutes they returned a verdict of not guilty. The District Artoaney then requested that he should be takem into the police office, and give his testimen: against Peter Grace es @ receiver of Olen goods, whic! was ordered by the Court. Horse Thief —A young man named Abraham Coles was tried for ste a bay mare from Wm. J. Lawson, 2 Bed- ford street, on the 3d of September last. It was proved that he hired the horse to go to see his uncle, about two miles from Hoboken. Not returning, search was made for him, and it was ascertained, by hearsay evidence, that he sold the horse to Wm. Stoothoof, of Flatbush, for $6. The horse was found in the possession of Stoothoof, but as he was not called as a witness, the jury discharged the isoner, under the charge of the Court. ‘Phe Court then adjourned to 11 o'clock Tuesday mor- ning. Common Council, Boanp or Atognmen, October 3.—Present, Alderman Woodhull, President, in the chair, and ell the members. ‘communication was received from the Mayor, rela- tiveto the defalcation of John Ahern, late Clerk ‘ot the Mayor, in which he points out the careless manner in which the pablic moneys are received by the Clerk of the Common Council and other receiving officers, and recom- mends a plan whereby the future defalcations may be remedied. There is reason to believe from the Mayor's communication, that other moneys besides the receipis for commutation, have been used for other purposes save that of being paid into the city treasury, We shall see through it by and by. Alderman Uxpexwoon said he was not pre any thing quite so egotistical from the Mayor, chairman of the Finance Committee, had pro] originated all the measures that the Mayor here clai hisown. He wished honor to be given where it w and he would have been more pleased, if the Mayor had opened his eyes some time since to these defalcations, and thus saved some $100,000 to the city. Aldermen Davixs said that if the Mayor had approved of the ordinance passed at the last meeting, which com- pels the Mayor’s Clerk and Clerk of the Common Council, and other receiving officers, to give securities for the faithful performance of their duties, he would have done much more to accomplish the measure desired, than in the communication presented. Alderman Puapy said thi deserved much credit for hi he hoped he would receive i Alderman Uxpxxwoop said that the Mayor had stated in this communication that which was not correc s it was he himself that had —. Mr. Taylor and Mr. Willis to sift this matter to the bottom, so that the public should know the whole of it. 5 Alderman Jonxs said that he claimed the credit, as he had introduced the ordinance himself. Alderman Punpy said that as there weretwo Richmonds in the field he hoped the gentlemen would either divide the honors, vr decide to which it belonged pi ‘The message was finally referred to the special commit- tee raised at the last meeting of the Board, to enquire into the defalcation of Ahern, and a motion to print was lost. A petition from Jacob Somerdyke, for a stand in Fulton market, was referred. ‘The Committee on Finance reported adversely to pay- ing Thomas Downing any additional sum for refresh- ments given to the military at the fire in 1836, he having been paid for 409, and claiming pay for about 500. ‘The Committee of Finance reported in favor of selling a goreof land in Middle Road, between 40th and 4lst street, to James McBriar, for $900, which was adopted. A report from the same Committee in favor of selling the lot of ground 180 feet on Battery place, and 16 feet 8 inches on Washington street, with the rear on West street of 22 feet to Chauncey St. John, for $16,000, was presented. Alderman Lronanp moved that it be laid upon the table, rs he was not prepared to vole. upon it at present. His views were concurred in by Aloerman West, Purdy and Gedney, and opposed by Alderman Underwood, Lee, and Carman. The motion to lay on the table was adopted. ‘The Committee to whom was referred the application ofthe Irish Emigrant Society for assistance, reported in favor of granting the sum of $500, to be used to further the objects of the society. Alderman Groxry wished to know whether, in givin away $000, the city was going to save anything by it; if #0, he was willing to vote for it. 4 Alderman Canman said that the city Would save doubl the sum, as the Imposition practised upon emigrants was such that they were soon deprived of their funds,and then they had te resort to the Alms House. Alderman Jones said he should vote against it, as he thought it would only tend to relieve those who were re- sponsible ag their bondsmen, or who had commuted for em. Aldermen Purpy and Davies sustained the resolution, and the latter contended there was no point in the re- the gentleman from the third energy in this matter, and marks of Alderman Jones of the Fifth. He said that a long winter was on the approach, a1 jum was In- tended to send emigranty into the country during the opening of the navigation, much distress might be alle viated. Alderman Leeann also sustained the measure, and said he was rejoiced to think that it was opposed by only one member of the Board. : Alderman Stewart said the object of the society was not to bestow alms, but to provide situations elsewhere {or emigrants who ‘arrive here. He said that the society had 251 members, who each contriduute $1 annually, and that within the space of less than one year they had sup- ied 869 persons with places for labor out of the city. Lbiegp gabe hoped that the appropriation would be made. Alderman Jones still opposed the measure, as he suid he had heard of hundreds who had returned from the coun- try without being able to obtain any emp oyment, and, therefore, what was the use of spending $500 when it would amount to nothing? Alderman Sirit said he was not fully prepared to vote for this measure. as he thought the money should be ex- pended under the direction of the Commissioners of the Alms House, and he made an amendment to that effect. He said that if money was given to this society others ‘would also apply for funds, and, therefore, as a matter of principle he was opposed to it. : Alderman Cxoxivs said he should vote for it, and would prefer the sum of $1000. He said he was acquainted with the officers and nearly all the members, and he felt satis- fied that they would devote the moncy to a good purpose. Alderman Lrx sustained the resolution. Alderman Groney said that he could'nt understand the matter, and therefore he hoped it would be laid on the ta- ble. He thought that charity began at home and that the Comwon Council would find that they had enough to do to take care of those we shall have on hand before the winter was over. “ Alderman Usperwoop said that there was no money in the hands of the Committee on Charity to pay this ambunt. ‘The resolution was then se amended as to call for an ap- propriation of the amount. lerman Gepsxy moved to lay it on the table and print, . which was lost. The resolution was then adopted by pre 14, and 3 in the negative—Aldermen Jones, Smith and Gedney voting in opposition. The Committee of Assessments, to whom was referred the application of the Merchants’ Exchange Company for exemption from taxes, reported adversely and the commit- tee was discharged. ‘The same disposition was made relative to the Farmers’ Loan and Trust Company. A communication was received fromja Committee ofthe Hudson River Railroad with a map and survey of acon- templated road along the Hudson River. On motion of Alderman Leonard it was referred to a select committee, consisting of Alderman Leonard, Underwood, Smith, West and Stewart. Shop Butchers.—A petition was received from butcher, asking for a repeal of the market law: Ald. Croxivs presented a petition from Hose Company No 8, for areturn of money, and also to repair hose house. Refused. The Committee on wharves, piers and slips, to whom was referred the proposals of building a pier 30 feet wide and 250 feet long, at the foot of Fifth street, East River, at a cost of not more than $6000, reported favorably, and the report and resolution was adopted. The same committee reported in favor of allowing J. & J.B. Brush to build a bridge over the head of the slip in front of their premises, corner of Wert and Clarkson sts., the bridge to be 30 feet in width. Adopted. Also in favor of deepening the slip at the foot of Delan- cy street, at an expense of not more than $1000, ‘Ald. Baris introduced a resolution to ascertain into the propriety of increasing the pay of the watchmen to $1 25 per night, instead of $1, to which it has been recently re- duced; also to increase the number of posts and watch- men. Uxpenwoon said he had a plan whereby the police and watchmen were to be united together in sueh a w as to prevent the necessity of appointing additional watc! men, Ald: Jowxs said he should prefer to see the resolution re- ferred to the select committee on the reform of the police system. He said he thought that it was a mere election- eering trick, and was got up for that purpose—that we had candidates here for members of Congress, Register, &c., and it was a business that he would not stoop to. Ald Punpy said he was happ) to hear that the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer—Allerman Underwood—had concocted such a plan as to combine the police and watch ether, and he desired to have a look at it. i hehad been prompted to offer this , from fact that a large petition, signed by many of his constituents, had been presented to him for the accomplishment of the object. The resolution was finally referred to the committee on police, watch and prison. Ald. Baxis introduced a resolution to authorize an ex- amination into the accounts of James H. Ward, late first marshall, which was adopted.

Bank notes have generally improved, as have, also, munici- pality. z Seme operations took place yesterday among the brokers. Four of them, in Common street, baying a dispute about some money operation, rushed into the street in front of their offices, opposite the City Hotel, and entered into the brokerage business on a newplan. As there is now not much to break in the way of banks and merchants, they undertook to break each other’s heads, and’ for that purpose formed a parraerenip ina general milling business, ‘The men were all fresh, and in fact appeared rather green at the business, though they came up to the ‘‘seratch” with a good deal of spirit i don’t know how many rounds. they fought, as they had a round-a-bout. way of doing the busi- ness and though they have been dealing in ex- changes for several years, they did not appear to have been in the habit of settling their dif- erences in such hard currency. They all show- eda great desire to possess themselves of their paeeia bills, which in all probability would have been dishonored. One drew at sight on another, and the draft was promptly paid in claret, which ap- peared to be even in more demand than specie.— Operations continued pretty brisk for some time, with a decidedly marked improvement in the busi- ness as the face of affairs plainly showed. They drew on each other or and for some time ac- ceptances were not refused, and though they are all considered honest men, they showed a great dispo- sition to thrust their hands into each other’s chests, and were found not so upright as they had been con- sidered before. One of them,who had beena heavy taker, lost a balance and_fell into the gutter,| where he lay and showed no dispesition to operate further. Business continued very active with the other firm who were strong holders, and who drew and paid with great promptness, till on one’s'showing a dispo- sition to gouge, one of the by-standers cried out— “part them,”—‘‘no,” said another, “gouging is thetr business—they are licensed to do it, haven’t they been gouging us all summer in bank and munici- pality notes ?” “They are all brokers,” said another —I'don’t care which beats.” So they were per- mitted to mill each other and engage in any fancy operations they chose—such as polishing ivory, pulling wool, &c., and making some little busines» ae the tailors, when after a time, there being less activity in the market, bills being offered and taken with much less readiness, the dealers withdrew, their stocks being much reduced. I did not note the time, but it was short; there being but little credit now, Opesators are inclined to pay down on the spot in hard currency. No ncrease in the fever. Louisiana. Louisville, Ky. {Correspondence of the Herald.} Lovisvinte, Sept. 29, 1842. Shocking Murder in Lowisville—The Morals of Po- litics. J. G, Bennerr— T hasten to give you an account of an occurrence that transpired in the vicinity of a whig meeting, in this city, held at the usual place, the Washington Hall. The cause that led to the almost fatal result is as follows:—Some time since, the democrats held a meeting at the Washington Hall, and the speech that was delivered by one of the locofoco party was reported, and published in the Journal as acommunication. The editor of the Sun, being a relative of the person alluded to in this communica- tion, whose speech was reported, demanded of the Journal the author. He was told, by note, that for any other purpose than a scurrillous eyes pry para- graph the name would be given up; and as for the cutting off of ears, which he had threatened in his paper,,that would be settled when the parties should confront each other “‘vis @ vis.” % Nothing more was said in the public See re- specting the matter; but am oug the “knowing ey a duel was talked of and momentarily expect- ed. Last evening the whigs had a meeting at the Washington Hall, to take some steps preparatory to, and to make arrangements for, a delegation trom this city to go and attend the barbecue at Dayton, Ohio, to be given on the 29th proximo. Mr. Pope, editor of the Sun, proceeded to the whig meeting, no doubt for the purpose of seeing Mr. Bliss, the author of the communication, and perhaps put his threat in execution. Mr. B. wass' inside the door of the Hall, arm in arm with Mr. Dinneford, and many reports say that Mr. P. called to some gentlemen acquaintances to hear bim call Mr. B. a “iar, rascal, scoundrel, coward,” &c., and imm diately firing his pistol at the victim of his ven- geance; the load, big buck shot and a , en- tered his body and arm, the slug passing a short dis- tance along the right arm and entering his body, and supposed to have lodged in the cavities of the spine, causing immediate paralysis, aftecting his ex- tremities, he evincing no sensation whatever, on be- ing pinched or pierced by any sharp instrument. His lite is des ray of, there being no hope of his recov- e leath must inevitably ensue. e trator of this horrid deed, and, as some have called is, cowardly and dastardly act, imme- diately fled, and took refuge in J. S. Morris & Co.’s drug store, on Main street. He was pursued by the crowd, but they were unable to take him, as he swore that the first man that approached he would shoot dead on the spot, holding two pistols, one in each hand, and a bowie knife. He said that he would deliver himself up to the ise maceal orthe watch. They soon arrived, and Capt. Turner es- corted him to the jail, where he is now lodged to await his hearing before the police court this morn- ing. Considerable excitement was manifested on the occasion, and had the mob caught him he might have been killed. The public condemnation never has been so universal or unanimous asin the present case, No palliation whatever is made to excuse the | ati | of the deed—all are of opinion that public justice should be out te him with its utmost rigor and severity. More anon. Sream Frieates.—A correspondent in your pa- per of yesterday morning, signed “A Traveller,” 18 incorrect in his statement that the ‘‘ steam frigates ississippi_ and Missouri are lying idle in this har- bor.” Had he made the necessary inquiry he woul have ascertained that the Misia having just re- turned from a cruise in the Gulf of Mexico, is now unde:going various repairs and alterations—receiv~ ing on board her coal and stores, preparatory to another cruise, and that the Missourt having been put in complete order since her arrival in port, is en- fa ed taking in coal, and will sail on a cruise pro- 4 ph or any other person, will pay i visit during the process of caulking these shipe « rivwill find that “lying idle in the harbor” is of all things net applicable to them ; for it 18 a well-known fact that the duty performed by the officers and men attached to ships is far more arduous than on board anv other vessel afloat. I make no comments respecting the “Fulton”— satisfied that when occasion requires she will give a good account of herself. Justice. Fine 1x Trewton.—A frame stable in Trenton, N. J., adjoining the lumber yard of Mr. John Crook, which, together with several sheds, and a —_. —_ of va- Iuable books, were destroyed. The dwelling house of Mr. Clark, one of the most beautiful mansions in Trenton, was con for some time, to be in imminent ; but through the active exertions of the firemen and citi- zens the dwelling was saved from the devouring element. Loss estimated at about $1,500, It ocourred on Friday.
