e THE NEW YORK HERALD. = = Vol. X., No. 268—Whole No, 3868. 1844. Great and Interesting ‘trial, before Justice Kirtland, One of the most curious and interesting cases was tried on Thursday, betore Justice Kirtland, of the Fulton street Ward Court, and a Jury of six persons, which was accompanied by some of the fuagiest and most amusing specimens of legal tact, argument and eloquence, that were ever heard in a court of justice. The suit was a prose- cntion by the Corporation Attorney, in the name of the Mayor, against a cartman, known as Samuel W. Sinith, of King street, for a violation of one of the city ordinances, for driving a cart without a licence, under the tollowing section: — § 8. No person shall drive any cart, sled, truck, dray, ‘Wwugon, or other carriage, for the transportation of any goods, wares, merchundise, fleewoed, or other thing whatsoever, within the city of New York, for hire or wa- e*, Without being licensed as a cartman by the Mayor of ae said city, under a penalty of ten dollars for every such oif-nee, Tue Corporation was represented by Nicholas Quackenboss, Exq., and Mr. Smith appeared as his own counsel. Several witnesses were called, who proved that Smith had admitted that he drove two carts without a license, and that he had ap- plied tor a heense at the Mayor’s office for two carte, which being refased under the ordinance, he asserted that he would not take out license unless he could have them both. Tais closed the testi- mony tor the prosecution. _ Mr. Sarr then opened his case to the jury as follows :— GentLemen or THE Jury :—Improper government is the erigin of domestic difficulties, andthe impolicy of counting foreigners as politi*ians, :o enable the weak: minded and ignorant to obtain power, is ell wrong. Mayor Varian’s influence with the Irish, to get office, an evidence of this, and its effects, in causing a rebellion, when the military were called out to quell them, are well known. This Mayer cries down with the Irish,which has the effact of disgracing them as a nation, and wrong- fully influencing the citizens against them, and has cauved a change in politica, bringing the whigs into power, which is a mere trick tovelimene power into a different name, by incensing the citizens against ignorant and innocent foreigners, and to keep the city government in-the hands of base aspiring men. The effect has heen to set all classes of citizens against foreigners, (partict larly Irish Catholics,) and from this city th riota in neighboring city may bs traced, They used a complete revolution in politics, which bas resulted in the election of a Mayor and Common Council, in name and principles, according to ions, diffrent from any previous Common Council ever before elected, and known to be at warfare with foreigners, whom the Con- ution binds us to protect. The § have called for achange, and they have got It change from one P ical power to an amalgamation of both, im such a manner a4 iv spoken of by God or Samuel sn the Bible. When the people a+ked’ for another king, he promised thea tyrant il they changed; one that would literally grind them to tae dust. Such is the politcal character of our present city government, as you will see from the history of facts, which our public officers will awear to in this Court. The previons ones, for some years past, having disgraced thelr offices by continually jarring, quarreiling and fighting in public places, that no respac- table man of talent and energy would accept the nomine- tion of Mayor; and the eff-ct has been to bring about ex actly the tyrannical form of government before alluded to; and, at this moment, a villain, in fact and law, if rightly known, is helding oue of the most respectable and re-ponsible offices in the gilt of this present Common Council. This, ft 1am permitted, Ican prove circum- stantially, if not lawtully. It has been the artifice of both litical parties in putting such persons in office, so as to the people by their tyrannical acts, and throw er back into one+ rthe other of the old parties, andas many of the present Common Council were whigs, some who tittered the most bitter and inveterate ¢enunci- ations against the locofocos, now turn from the whi will vote the locotoce ticket. All he eff-ct ef putting in men not morally bad, but in their rights, and to vultures aunts. The: I hope it will Luv: the + ff. ct to check their political career, that the per- sons of our citizens with their families and friends, on the Sab’ pect.

The ridicnlous farce and improper exposures of his mental abilities, shows that he {is a mere cypher in his office, and that neither the . or proverty of citizens can be protected.

Jupce—I’'ve no power, unless they consent, without good reason The Acting Corporation Attorney here called two other witnesses, who testified that Smith had said thet his li- cense had been revoked by Mayor Varian, and he had driven two oarts since, and would continue to do so if they would not license them both. Mr. Smrtu then called his witnesses :—James Harper, Geo. W Hinchman, Munson Clark, Stephen Sammons, H. Sammons, M. Quackenboss, R H. Morris, James A Kellum. Wm. H Bell O Milderberger. Messrs.

Sxrr. 27.—Barrett Amos va John Bloodgood — Slavery. — This was a curious ection, mvolving a question of law in relation to slavery. It was brought by the plaintiff to re- Cover a sum of $700 for the services of aslave It appem- ed that in July, 1833, the plaintiff bired out the siave, named ‘‘Jaceb,” to defendant in the State of Alabama, the slave remaining in the service until 1841. In 1943 the slave was manumitted. The parties being in New York, thecase was brought up, and the slave la buma was pleaded to sustain the suit. A no ved on the ground that plaintiff could not recover on ch a contract ina free je, such as New York, for slave services. The Court overruled the objection. The laws of New York not recognizing slavery, an im- portant principle of law is involved. Mr. Devtmonn was produced and testified to the fact of reement and hiring, throngh his agency. ‘The defence put in was that the slave was “quick-tem- pered and sulky,” and also that a portion of time during the servitude the slave was incapable of performing his ind, therefore, that the ndant was not liable. The young man, Jacob, waa produced and his testimony jrcted to on the groun his having been a slave jate of the contract, upen which he, was about to give testimony. The Cor overruled the objection, He appeared to be a active, healthy young man of color. Itappeared in evidence that he got sick from the effects of a severe flogging, calledpn the South “paddling,” which operation is performed by stripping the slavebeating him on the naked back with aflat board,in which are pierced a number of holes. {n consequence of this punishment, it was alleged that the slave was incapable of performing services, and the alleged incapabilityto perform duty wan put in, on the part of the defendent—as well as the al eged qnick temper of the slave ; claiming, also an allowance tor boerding and seme A written contract, duly exe << signed and sealed by the parties, wes put in and ad. mitted. The Count charged the case was one of assumpsit, and asimple business transaction not involviog the question of slavery at all; andthe only question wus, what were the services worth? The decision upon the point be- longed exclusively to the jury. In relation {to the pun- ishment and consquent fickners, if the jury were of opinion that the cessation from business was caused by the punishment, the plaintiff was entitled to recover. The quention of interest claimed also by the plaintiff, was one which they should dispore of. Verdict ior plaintiff $579, and 60 8, Messrs.

Indge Betts will sit in Bankruptcy cases this day. seh Eicmmanen maatly have, during hee week, given several concetie at the Greciaa Fa! Ooneord Pere . At 9 o'clock this body met again in St. John’s Church, which was literally crowded. Divine ser- vice and the usual routine business, such a calling the roll, reading the minutes of the previous ses- sion, took up acouple of hours. ‘The first regular business of any moment which was introduced, came in form of a report from the committee appointed to report on the Bishop’s sa- lary, and bis claim to be compensated for certain deficiency in his remuneration, Founded upon and appended to the report, which was favorable tothe claims of the Bishop, were aserics of reeo- lutione, which were taken up seriatum, and discus- sed. The first waz thus expressed :— Resolved, ‘ihat this Convention explicitly recognizes its obligation to pay to Bishop Underdonk anauaily the 1- terest on $90,000, to include the amount Which was gene- rously granted by Trinity Church. 4 Mr. Haxeison spoke strongly against the passing of the resolution. 7 A member called for the reading of the 13th canon, which was complied with. — Judge Jones supported the resolutions of the com- mittee, and the Bishop's claim. ; s Rev. Mr. Bauiow called for the reading of all the resolutions, and proceeded to state some ob- jections he had to them, and in doing so he hed no thought ot imputing any laiproper motive to these of the Convention who ditlered from him, nor to the clergy of the diocese, of whom he was one. Whilst ie deplored the need there was for taking some step to usake up the deficieucy in their funds,jhe was of opinion that it was not lo be done best by collections. The present system was bad and must be changed; under it their Bishop had suffered, and would continue to sutler if the present system of finance were allowed to remain. It might do very well 50 yearsago, when there were few cal's upon the bounty of the people, to go to them for money ; and it might be founa practicable, even at present, in large cities, where there vast opulence—but it would not suitin those parts of the country, and they were not few, where they had but the smallest amount of bread and water for their ministers, and where, but for a few liberal men, who had the heart and the means to pay, and pay on, churches could not be sus tained; and he wouid put it to the house—would it be right to burthen so oppressively these few liberal men? God might see a great deal of merit in the widow's mite, yet he could not help think- ing it unworthy of the Protestant Episcopal Church to go on financiering tor their Bishop on the widow’s mite principle. He would suggest that it the subject were forced upon the opulent embers of this diocese, the whole amount would be real- ized in three months. An attempt to make a geue- ral parochial collection Would amount to nothing, and if they persisted in doing so they would go on trom year tu year and never pay their debt, but be obliged at last to repudiate 1t. But if they would act right, let them teil the people openly (hat they are under a Solemn contract with the Bishop, aud then they wouid put their hands in their pocket and pay the whole amount. The boldest policy, if cun- ceived in a spirit ot wisdom and liberally, was al- ways best, therefore they were encouraged to pre- sent the subject to the diocese, and it would be answered iustantly, ‘The age they lived in was one of commercial faithlessness, repudiation, aud agrarianism ; it was the duty, and he trusted the desire of ali good men to keep those abominations out of the Church of God. Should they reglect their just debts, 1t would be practical nuilificauon in the church, tor as that church was tounded by Jeaus Christ, its authority was valid—its decrees were law—yes, ita decrees were God’s law — (Symptoms of strong feelings were here observa- ble.) Some jooked to Trimuty Church for the pay- ment of this sum; but he would beg to ek them, it, when on atormer occasion Trinity Church gave them $40,000, they did not take it without sayiug ** genueueu, you must add $22,000 more to it or we will not accept it.” Because ‘Irianty Chureh is rich, were they to pay the Convention’s just debis?) He would ask if they thought they had a right to put their haads iu the pockets of John Ja- cob Astor, because they were tull? Such views would be real ugrariauism. Mr. B. ended by re- newing his suggestion, as the most sure way ol Meeting their OUlugations. j ‘A Meuber, Whose name was not ascertained by our reporter, begged to vindicate his congregation, as ithad always contributed its share, aud muie, on all occasious; and he thought the geatleman who spoke so strongiy, should discriminate, as his observations did not apply equally to all congrega- uons. Twelve o’clock having arrived, N The Paxsipent announced that it was time to proceed to the order ot the day, which was, by laet night’s appointinent, the adjourned discussion on the nomination of trustees tor the Theological Sena- nary. x vote having been taken, the house agreed to continue the debate upon the resolutions before them. i The first resolution, recognizing the Bishop's claim, was put and carried by the following vote: Ayes—Clergy, 100— Parishes, 87. Noes—Clergy. 5—Parishe: The second resolution earnestly recommended all ministers to present the subject of the Episco- pal Fund to their several parishes, and take mea sures towards a faithful compiiance with the canon on the subject. 7 ? A lay member of the convention, observing some signs of a renewal of the discussion on the resolu- tion, arose and said—If | am allowed the privilege, Mr. President, I am going to make one of the shortest speecties you have heard, yet. (Movement of curiosity.) | would beg to put the convention in mipd of the fact that there are many here who have a long distance to travel ; for my own part | have come 160 miles, and must go home to-night Well, we have spent nearly two days in debating questions in which there was not the slightest shade of diflerence ; in seeing how nearly you can come to agree without doing so. But | beg those who are near home, who can stop in the city or cross over to Brooklyn, to remember those whose homes are more distant ; and I would beg to aye to my reverend brethren who have any more long ser- mons to deliver—give us the text, and preach the sermon to your congregation. (Loud laughter.) The second and third resolutions were adopted afier some discussion. i + Rev. Dr. Hiasee next called the attention of the Convention to the nomination of Trustees of the Theological Seminary. He alluded to the pro- ceedings of last night, and expressed his apprehen- sion that he was misunderstocd in the object he had in view. He wished most clearly to disclaim the slightest intention to interfere with any differ ences of opinion which existed amongst the pre- sent board of Trustees. When he saw the warmth with which his proposal wus opposed, it occurred to him that he must have been mt-understood and he could not help believing that if the resolution which was offered in amendment was adopted, it would establish a most dangerous precede nt,andone which would bind the Convention to vote for and continue the same set of men in office trom year to year. + His reason for making the proposal was, that of the present Trustees were some who never showed their faces amongst them during the whole year; he wished to open the door wider instead of contracting it, as had been imputed tohim. How- ever strong his reasons were, upon reflection he would, if it were more satisfactory to the Conven- tion, withdraw his motion. y ae motion was declared withdrawn accord ingly. OL & report from the committee on Canons being read, a few changes were made in the Canons, a» ated inthe report, but they did now involve any principle of importance, and were quickly disposed of. Rey: Mr. Ports, of Albany, arose, an ergetic address brought up again the fia ters to which so much of the attention ot the Con vention had been given a short time previously, and which was disposed of by the Gost of the second resolution, recommended by thé special committee appointed to consider the pecuniary claims of the wishop. He said that by directing the ministers as they had done, to use their effurt« in their several Parishes to reatize the deficiency in the $100,000 fund, they had acted inconsiderate- ly, unwisely. Some of the members were poor yet joyfully spending their lives in God’s service; others were rich in the gifts of God’s providence, and to the latter he would say, that they had de serted their brethren in the day of their necessity; to all he would say, that they possessed the mean: of cancelling their debt at once. Some talked of large and bold plans, but notwithstanding that, when the day of action arrived they were likely Trew to be found wanting. He would propose thi lution p= Resolved, That the members of this Convention be hereby invited to givy their personal contributions tobe fore this convention adjvvrus, or within two doy Purposr of enabling the church in this diocese to 0 The resolution was adopted withont aay debaty and a question was thus settled, which seemed t be regarded as of much i Judge Oaxcey begged leave to again call the at tention of the house to his previous motion on the rules of order, The house must perceive that il more and more uecessary to settle the question as to the Power of the President; tor he had more than once used that power in decisions of matters before them.
