Bupreme Court, Kings County, Opecial Term. TRS TRAINER CASE CONCLUDED—BDACISION OF JUDGE BAROULO, GIVING THE CUSTODY OF THE OHILD JANB, TO HEB FATRER. Yesterday morning, the Governor's room in the City fall, Brooklyn, in which the Supreme Court has been sitting, in special term, was crowded to excess in conse quemee of an expectation that the final decision of thi case would be made. At 11 o’clock the Judge signified his readiness to render his decision. Charles A. May, Eaq., appeared for Mr. Brady, stating that he (Mr. B) ‘was unavoidably detained in Now York, on professional ‘Dusimens, and asked that the decision be portponed until te-morrow, (Tuesday.) The Justice, however, did no’ deem the presence of cdunsel absolutely necessary, and after deferring the case of Deputy Sheriff Crombie one ay, gave his decision as follows:— ‘The case came before the court on the retarn of the re ppondent to a writ of habeas corpus, sued out by the re lator, to obtain the custody of his infant child. Upon its merits, when divested of the extraneous circumstan- ces which have given an unnatural interest and noto- riety to the matter, it is very plain and simple. But several new and highly important legal questions have been ited and argued i Figg learned counsel, which it be proper first to consider. I. It contended by the counsel for the respondent, that the power of amending a writ of habeas corpus by this court cam be exercised only ats geaeral term. Re Hance is had upon the statute which requires the appli- cation to be mad ~ Is the Supreme Court, during its sitting; or, 2 During any term or vacation of the Supreme Court, to the chancellor, or any one of the justices of the Su- preme Court. or avy officers who may be au’ to form the duties of # justice of the Supreme Court at ee, being or residing within the county wherein ‘the prisoner is detained. This precise question came before the court under our former system, when special terms were held for the transaction of certain non enumerated business, and Chief Justice Savage expressly decided thst the writ could be issued by the court at special term.—Exparte Beatty, 12 Wen., 249. It is hardly necessary to add that, under our present system, much greater powers are given to the special term; for we possess not only the powers of the old Supreme Court, but also the entire powers of the former Court of ry, either of which ‘courts bé#@, without the aidef any statute at the common Jaw, jurisdiction over babeas corpus ‘ IL Again, it is insisted that a single Justice, sitting in county, has no authority to send the writ into the city of New York. This argument is based upon the sup- that the writ was issued by the Justice, and not by the Court, which is unfounded in fact. But if the fact were as su) the argument would nevertheless ‘de fallacious. For a Justice of this court can at Cham- ders, award a writ of habeas corpus that shall run ito any part of the State. 7 point was before Justice Harris, in The People vs. Semuel Hanna, 3 Howe, Pr. Rep. 30. He then held that the limitation contained in the words “ or residing withia the county,” in the atatute above cited, which is relied on by counsel, ap- plied to the last ing class of officers ‘‘authorised to futies of a Justice of the Supreme Court,” —— the dut ving to the Justices of the Supreme Court the same fe nip bier as they possessed under the pre- viously exis statutes. In that case a writ was allowed by Judge Harris, sitting in Albany, to bring up & person detained in Columbia county. So) also. the People va. Woodreif, 3 Howe, Pr Rep. 32, Justice Willard allowed a writ at his Chambers, in Saratoga Springs, returnable before the county Judge of Washington, to bring up a isoner in the latter Sonn. So in the familiar case of ‘e People vs. Mercein, (8 Paige 35.) The Chancellor, sit- ting at Baratoga Springs, brought before him a child from the city of New York. It may be added that the-e decisions are in entire conformi:y to the geaeral practice of the Judges of this court. : TL It i ectondea that the matter is res adjudicata; the same question having recently been heard before Judge Duer, of the Supreme Court, city of New York. ‘Two answers may be given to this proposition. First, the case does not stand upon the same state of facts, for the relator has given evideuce of restraint having been exercised wince the former proceeding. Second, that jJearned and accomplished Judge doubted his authority to make an order disposing of the custody of the child. ‘That doubt probably controlied his decision, and may have been well founded as applied to the Judge of a court of limited jurisdiction, snd clothed with no gen- eral equity poners. Upon this point I quote from the opinion of Judge Duer the following :—“I certainly concur with ihe learned counsel for ine re- spondent, that 1 am not sitting hi a Judge in equity, clothed with their large ciseretiouary powers in relation to the disposition und custody of infants, which the Lord Chancellor in England, as the repre-entative of the sov- ereign, is competent, and has long since been accustomed to exercise. Powers Fn as extensive, I doubt not, ‘were vested in our late Court of Chancery ; and if so, by force of the new Constitutien, have been trausferred to, and are mow vested in, the Supreme Court of the State. But they do not belong to me either as « Supreme Court Commissioner or as a Judge of the Supreme Court. I cannot, therefore, exercise the discretion which they con- fer, even would 1 be justified in acting et the same time, and in the same proeerding, in a double capacity. The Happy wasn: CoM ws aya entire jurisdiction of the Chaucellor, ae ac of iufants, and, a6 such, has an exclusive rig! rermine ell questions lation to disposition and custody, except when the questions properly arise in an action becween hus. bard and wife for an ab-olute or limited divorce.” It will thus be seen that the learned Juige concedes to thia Court the powers which he did not ceem himself to . abd Which are wow iavoked, and necessary to afford the relief prayed for. The arguiment of res adjudt- cata, therefore, falls to the ground , for it woud be idle to talk of @ previous a: ation being a bar, when the former tribunal had no righ: 10 adjudicate the point in controversy. It will also be seen that we in no manner conflict with the decision of Judge Duer. Tuts Court, be- ing clothed with ful legal and equitable power, enter- 3 no doubt of its authority to makea final disposi- tion of this matter. IV. We will now proceed to examine the case upon its merits. Charles Trainer. the relator, claims that Jane Trainer, an infant 9 years of age, is his legitimate child, and thot the respondent, witbout authority, detains her at « house of ill-fame, No. 101 Mercer street in the city of New York. The respondent admits that the relator is the father of Jane, but denies that he was lawfully married to her mother, ‘the latter being a slave; and denies that thechild is under apy restraint, and avers that she voluntarily remains with the respondent. Thee are the substantial facts upon which the decision de- pends, although numerous irrelevant matters have been brought into the case, and quite an un- necessary emount of ill feeling excited and displayed. These matters relate to the fact that Jane has been a slave belonging to the respondent; that she was made free by respondent moving into the State of Ohio before she came to New York; and that the relator is, and al- ways bas been, a free black man. It is hardly necessary to remind the parties, and their counsel, that upon a juestion of this kind the law in this State recognizes no ‘tinction of color or race; and that ail fathers, what- ever way be their standing in society, have precisely the same legal authority avd control over their childrea. The re'ator stands before the Court simply as as a man prosecuting his own patetval rights, while the respon- dent appears asa woman having ne claims upon the child by agreement or consanguinity, but only through her af fections. Itis wholly unnecessary, therefore, to inquire into the complexion of the ove or the reputation of the other. If she were the most exalted lady in the land, and he the most humble of ite inbabitants, their rights im the eye of the law, and their consideration ia the view of this Court, would be the same, In regard to the legi- timacy of the child, I bave been somewhat embarrassed, becaure there is no direct evidence of the fact, except the testimeny of the relator himself. For although such tes- timony bas been usually admitted, I am not quite sure that it stands upon any solid foundation. In the view, however, which I take of the cace, the legitimacy of the ebild is not a fact of vital importance, The relator swears tbat he was married in Mobile by black Metho- dist preacher, his wife being a slave, and both members of tke same denomination Upon this it is claimed by respondent's counsel that the marriage is void by reason of @ statute of the State of Alabama forbidding slaves to marry Whether it be true, as the argument tends to show, that all the slaves in that i it is not necessary more particularly to inquire. sufficient for us that the marriage being by words de prewnti, avd foliowed by cobabitation, is as good as a at common law. Assuming, then, that the legitimate, how stands the question be- tween the father and the respondent as to its cus- tody? To this question but one answer can be given. That the father has @ title superior to an stranger ia not less a doctrine of the authorities than t iss Lown gr of human nature. The father's rights are | paramount even to the mother’s, until he forfeits his claims by misconduct or illusage. (Peopleen re, Nicker- son, 19 Wen. 16.) |‘ He is bound to support and maintain it, He is, therefore, the natural guardian, and entitled to its custody, care and education.”” He has the natural right to bring it up in his own faith, and give it such in- structions and discipline as he may deem best for its pre- sent and future welfare, In the language of Jud Bronson, im Merceins vs. The People, 25 Wen. 72, “The law regards him as the head of the family ; obliges him to provide for its wants, and commits the chilirea to his charge in preference to the claims of the mother or an other person.” Even if we lay aside the relatior’s testi- mony. and adopt as true the statement in the return, that Jane is his illegitimate child, still his claim would be superior to that of the respondent or any other stranger, a inferior to t of the mother. (1 ‘Clarke ch. Rep.) In every aspect, therefore, in which this ease can be reeeived, we are compelled to admit that the father's right to the possession of the child is supe- rior.to that Ko respondent, and I may be pardoned for saying, that if he moved in the higher walks of life, if he were a white man of standing and influence in the community, the truth of this proposition would be uni- vorsalty schnonieiged ; amd any tribunsl that, ble | authority, should ‘itate to afford him relief, woul subject itself to just reproach. The public voice, as well would declare that if efr courts per- re] cxjuaat broken \d destroyed. up an 5 It is tncleted that there is no restraint, because the child remains with the res) 1 hold true of an adult, who, when deli- Trpresumed to know where to go and how to take care of ‘now where iow to e care himeelf.

Hl i £ t defeats the for herself, to maintain Jane in her determination not to go to her father, and to repel all attempts on his part to obtain possession of the child against her will. We have no heritation in determining that the conduct of the ee- spondent amusts in law to restraint. 6, Having arrived at the conclusion that the relator is legally entitled to the care and cusigdy of bis daughter, and that she is held under improper restraint by Te- spondent, the only remaining inquiry is as to the remedy. former demands a de! , while th that the powers of the Court are exbausted when we sball bave removed the restraint, and set the child free. The ene claims that some results should follow the decision; the other purpores to return in statu quo anto bellum. It bas been substantially admitted that, in regard to acults delivered by the statute writ, the proposition of the respozdent’s-cause is tenable, and that it was proper- ly so held by Judge Duer, sitting’ as a Commissioner un- Ger the statute’ is not contradicted. But that it is cor- rest, as applied to the care in this Court of ample juris- diction, independent of the babeas corpus act, is most confidently denied, We are aware that some of the cases speak of cl n exercising their own choice aud discre- tion, This may be wellenough when we are assured that they possess what may be fairly called discretion. Whe- ther this can ever be predicated of children under four- teen years of age, in whom the law, in numerous respents, declares there is no discretion, we need not now deter- mine. It is sufficient for us that this child does not manifest that degree of judgment which. in the opinion of the Court, would qualify her to select her own domicil and guardian. That she isold enough to feel a prefer- ence, and that such feeling ia toward the respondent, is quite apparent; but tbat such preference is wise and discreet’ cannot be admitted. Indeed, it can hardly be contended that a house fame is a proper place, or one of its inmates a suitable person, the education of any child. But, independent of ‘this overwhelming proof of actual indivcretion, we cannot sanction nor give countenance to the doctrine that such children are to control their own movements, and select their own places of residenee. It has no foundation in reason or justice. and is plainly opposed to the laws of the land as well as the laws of God. The Court must go fur- ther, therefore, than merely remove the restraint by ren. dering a judgment which shall dispose of the custody of the child, and conclude tbis controversy. It would be an idle ceremony for the Court to try a cause without making a decision by which the fruits of litigation could be reaped. We have a multitude of precedents for our guidance in this particular. In the matter of Dowles, 8 John Rep. 898. the Supreme Court “ordered the boys to ‘be delivered to their master, and directed an officer to at- tend and protect them in their return.’’ In the People vs. Mercein, 3 Hill, 399, Chief Justice Nelson conclu his opinion in these words : ‘An order must, therefore, be entered that the child be delivered to the relator.” ‘That was a case where, after two or thiee years of ay tion, the Court ordered the child to be taken from ita mother and grandfather and given to the husband and father, although the child was under five years of age. And in a former stage of that case, 25 Wen. 97, the Chan- cellor, in commenting on the powers of the Supreme Court'to award the custody of the child, on reversing the proceedings, to Judge Inglis, declared “that if he was wrong, the Supreme Court should not only have reversed his decision, but should also have proceeded to make a final disposition of the custody of the child,” and in the People ex. rel. Nickerson, 19 Wen. 16, an order was made that ‘the child be delivered to the father, and that the care and custody of Mtr be committed to him. Guided by there lights, we shall direct am order to be entered ad- judging that the raid Charles Trainer is entitled to the care and custody of said Jane Trainer, and directing her to be delivered to him, as her father, leaving him, like the rest of us, responsible to his conscience and his God for the manner in which he shall fulfil the trust thus re- stored to him. The Court then ordered the Sheriff to deliver the child to the custody of the father, and directed the officers in attendance to accompany them, and see that the direc- tion of the Court was observed. The child cried bitterly as the was taken away. Coroner’s Inquests. CENSURABLE CONDUCT AT THE BROOKLYN HOSPITAL. Yesterday gn inquest was heid at the New York Hospi- tal, before Coroner Hilton, on the body of John Turner, who came to his death by injuries accidentally received from falling into the basement of house No. 43 Cherry street. Jchn Berry, who keeps ilor’s boarding house, de- posed that the deceased boarded with him; that he wt repman, a native of England; about thirty-nine years old; on last 'Weonesday or Thursday he fell down from the sidewalk, into the basen:ent of the house, being intoxi- gaved at the time, and struck the side of his face on the ameraunt fi feet deep.’ Ww eh fae’ was not over — and —_ or 01 Pat nll gi ‘A He cent him to the New York Hospital ins” concty us next morning, from whence he was sent to the hospital in Brooklyn; but as he was not able to tell the ship in which he came, he was sent back to hic house. He was incanaible, aud could not speak. Witness, on the next day, sent him back, with a policeman, to the New York Hompital, where he was admitted. John ¢, McComb, M. D., house surgeon in the New York Hospital, depoted to the admission of the deceased, on the morning of June 9, when he was partially insensi- ble, evidently suffering from a difficulty about the head. Witness found slight contusions on the left side of the head and face, but could detect no fracture. He con- tinues to sink, and died yesterday, (Sunday,) about 4 P. M. On examination, after death, theze was found a elot in a part of the brain, but no fracture. The jury brought in a verdict of accidental death, and Geemed the conduct of the person in charge of the Brook- lyn Hoepital as highly censuranle. AGGRAVATED ASSAULT AND CONSEQUENT DEATH. Axotber inquest was then held before the same Coroner, upon Willtam staffurd, who was brutally assaulted, about four weeks ago, in the bar room of Freuch’s Hotel, by a band of rowdies¥and subsequently died from the injuries received. Robert Doyle deposed that the deceased and himself went into French’s Hotel, at the corner of Chatham and Frankfort streets, about 11 o'clock P. M., four weeks ago ink there, aud having gone out, took a walk around the Park, when on their return home, while on the side walk, about oppo- site to the Hall of Records, they met a man who appeared to be drunk, and who, putting his foot befure, attempted to trip witness over. Deceased end himself were walk- ing arm-in-arm at the time. Witness asked him what he meant by it, when the other caught him by the throat, snd on being compelled to loosen his hold, called out some ame. It was semething like “Davy.” Deceased went ahead, and asked witness to come on, but the man pre- vented him As soon as he got clear, hs followed the deceaced into Freach’s Hotel again. They went im there to get clear of the man; and the other persons whom he was hallooiug for; after they got ia, the leceaced and himself called for another drink, and the barkeeper was in the act of serving them, when about ten young men rushed in, crying out, ‘Is these sons of bitehes here’”’ One of the party ssid, ‘There is one of the sons of bitches,” pointing to the deceased; the whole party then attacked them with their ‘fets; witness was knocked down at the end of the counter, and when he got up be saw the deceased lying on the floor, about the middle of the room; he seemed insensible; after a few minutes he spoke; he was cut about the face and head, and was bleeding freely; after a little while they went home together; they were both sober; they had not quarrelied with any person during the evening; after de- d got home, Le went out again to a doctor’s, and got his wounds dressed; the landiady went out with him; wit- ness went to bed; this was about one o'clock; deceased was sick for some two weeks after that; he complained of pain in his head; he got somewhat better, and was talking about going to work; a few days after this he got worse, and was sent to the New York Hospital; he toid witness that he would not know any of the persons that beat him, Jacob G.

[From the Cincinnati Gazette, June 11.) Friday morning, about 1 o'clock, a fire broke out in the cellar of the. liquor store of Guiraud & Sarran, on Main, near Columbia street. Such was the combustible cbaracter of the contents of the cellar that ina very few moments the fire burst through the floor, and the entire building was soon enveloped ia flames. About the time the five got under full headway, an explo-ion took lace in the crllar whe.e the fice Originated, throwing jown the rear wall of the building. This explosion greatly assisted the progress of the fire. The flames commerced on tne south to the commission store of McCullough, Morris & Co., which was compietely destroyed ; thence to the iron store of Neave & Free, the upper story of which was burnt, On the north, the Lquor store of R.A. Little was damaged in the upper story. His loss, however, is not great. The upper story of tuis building was occupied by S. S. Cooper with dried frait acd produce, wwitah was mencly ail Gestroyod. In the rear of thoce establishments were the extensive warehouses of Keys, Maltby & Uo. avd McCullough, Morris & Co., who los: everything.

An Afray in a Lager Bier Shop—Several of the Assail- ants Wounded by a Discharge of Small Shot from a Pis- tol.—The police of the Sixth ward were called, between one aud two o'clock on Monday morning, to quell a dis- turbance ina lager bier shop, situated at No. 48 Centre street, called the “Jenny Lind,” kept by » German uamed John Doscher. It appears by the evidence before the police court, that Patrick McNulty, John Stachem, Edward Gillespie, James Morrison, and several others, entered the bier shop and wanted to be supplied with liquor; their demand was refused, when an assault was made by tem on the barkeeper. ' Mr. Doscher ordered them out of the house, and they refusing to go, and fear: ing personal injury, he took a revolver, loaded with duck shot, and discharged it several times at the assailants; five ‘grains of the shot wounded Morrison, two on the head and three in the body; Gillespie was shot through the thumb, and several others received slight injury by the random grains of shot. The polics came, and officers Baker, Crassous, and others of the Sixth ward police, entered the premises and tock into custody Joho Doscher, the proprietor of the place, who acknow- ledged to the officers that he discharged the revolver at the aseaflants in self-defence.

It seems thai Mr. Sullivan visited @ hous in the Fourth ward, where Marphy managed to extract from his person a pocket book containing the above-named amount of moxey, Surpicion resied on the axcused, who, when asked about the money, denied all knowledge of it, and further denied baving any money whatever on bis person. The police officer arrested the accused, and conveyed him te the station house, where the rogue was detected in trying to swallow a roll of bank bilis, which were ultimately got from his mouth, and amounted to $22. This money was ized and identified by the complainant as @ portion of the money stolen. The evi- dence being conclusive of his guilt, the magistrate com- mitted him to prison for trial.

The last request Mr. 9. thought suspicious, and accordingly er, information to the Chief of Police, who deputed the abore named officer to make the arrest At the appointed hour, instead of the acoused calling for the plate and printed checks, a boy called for them. The police officer, being prevent, au- thorized Mr. Smith to give them to the boy, who left the office, and, on going down Murray street, met Rogers, to whom he gave the leery ol ‘The officer then took Rogers im into custody, and asked wher he was Fol » He replied that the for aman at ti ¢ Hudson River Railroad officer proceeded with him to the depot, anf there Rogers, put the into th Eande ot om Tah labore talsemios De oats tees pig the man from whom he had recived the order to taken if for $4,000, which would include a bonus for allowing him to come into it coat the defendant, he said, $7,560, and was worth f ‘per acre; some of it was worth $100 pei on account of the fine timber that was on the land; ness raid that be did sot want to enter into any such transaction, but he would take one half of the farm at the price defendant paid for it, and accordingly made an agreement with him to buy the property; there were in the farm 1,261 acres, which he affirmed cost him $6 per acre; wituess then bought one half for $3,783, witness id down in cash $2,000 and gave his notes foethe ba- nee; he then went up in a few Gays afterwards to see the farm, which he found to be nothieg more than wild swamp land, dotted here and there with cedar trees; ft was from his (the defendant's) representations as to its value that he was induced to part with his money. The witners was here cross-examined at great length by the defendant's counsel, after which Mr. Hall, the assistant dintrict attorney, gave his opinion that the testimony of the complainant did not sustain the charge preferred against the privover. The complaloant should bave ta- ken immediate proceedings against the prisoner, whereas he did not do 20 for two or three months. The Judge then asid that the prosecution was aban- dored. ‘The Court did mot consider it a1 a caso that caine within the statute 4f false pretences. ‘The jury therefore rendered a formal verdict of not guilty, ‘although one of them expressed himself not satis- fied with the proceedings by any means. PLEAS OF GUILTY. Burglary —Henry Lang pleaded guilty to an indict- ment cbarging him with committing & burglary, and stealing property to the amount of $250 The prisoner was sentenced to be imprisoned in the State prisoa for three yeare and three months. The prisoner was an old offender. and was, no doubt, reconciled to his Grand Larcen Frederick Alps pleaded guilty to an ncictment charging him with stealing a gold watch. valued at sixty dollars. The prisoner was a native of from acre, wil Germany, and cried when the Court sentenced him to be | impsisoned in the State prison for two years, being the shortest period the law allows. The Court then adjourned until the next morning at usual hour, Sioux Politics. Ata late council held between the Sioux Indians and Governor Gorman, a very interesting and amus- ing dialogue occurred between Little Crow, the orator of the red brethren.and the Governor, which is worth recording. LirrLe Crow.—I want to say something to the men standing all around there, (pointing to a row of professional gentlemen, who were leaning up lazily Seales the wall,) I want the interpreter to ask them if they would expect to be paid like our government farmers, six hundred dollars a year, and then not do their work well? (Laughter) Governor.—Why those men over there, probably never did a day’s avork in their lives. (Another laugh at the expense of the professional fenton) Liutie Crow.—If they won’t work themselves, don’t think they would be willing to pay other men $600 a year for doing nothing. Governor.—Do the government farmers neglect their work? LittLe Crow.—They do scarcely any thing. The money paid them passes through their fingers, and falls on the ground, without doing us any good. GovERNoR.—I will look to it, and i of the farmers have not done their duty, I will tind good men to fill their places. Lirtte Crow.—We want a change. We havea new Great Father with new counsellors, we have a new Governor, and new agents, and we think that we ought to have new farmers. (Laughter and ap- plause from all the white folks present, who agree that Little Crow is a shrewed politician and pretty orthodox democrat.) Governor.—I will consult the welfare of the In- dians, and the reasonable wishes of the chiefs, and remove every farmer that is lazy or incompetent. (Great applause among the red men, manifested by a@ unanimous “ho!” “ho!” “ho!” Lirtte Crow.—Yon will see at the agency, that the farmer of my band has done nothing—made no fence yet. Governor.—If so, I will remove him. (More applause from the red citizens, who are waxing quite warm in their democracy.) Gray Inon—Chief of Black Dog village—You will also see that the farmer of my band has done no work—made no fence. Governor.—Then I will remove him too, and I will now say to the chiefs of all the bands, that when I go to the agency, i will remove every farmer that has not done his duty. The Indians expressed the ore satisfaction at his assurance, and seem to feel that they have now a father, who, while he enforces from them the most implicit obedience to all just commands and requisi- tions, atthe same time watches their interests and defends their rights with paternal solicitude. Although the Sioux Indians are opposed to re- moving themselves, they are nevertheless warmly in favor of removing the remaining incumbents among them of the late Galphin administration. EprroRIAL ConvENTION.—A maj oe the pub- lishers and editors of newspapers in State as- sembled in Tyler's Hall, New Haven, on Wednes- day, pursuant to previous arrangement, to consult upon matters of genegal interest, and lay the foundation of a more general social intercourse. It was the first gathering of the kind in this State, and brought together quite as many as was expect- ed. Some who would have been present were de- tained by publication day, and some by other causes. Many subjects were discussed, and’ we are sure that all who were present found, in a business way, the Le wet of notes much to their advan- tage. Upon ing that the convention was to as- semble in New Haven, Mr. Allis, of the Tontine, generously extended the members an invitation to dine at his house. The invitation was accepted, and the dinner was one of the most sumptuous that could have been provided—the table was loaded not only with substantials but with every delicacy the season affords. Mr. Allis was Temembered in the sentiments offered, and we are sure he has the thanks of all who were present. After dinner the members of the convention were taken in carriages around the ‘City of Elms,” and its beauties exhibited. The ride was a charming ove, extending even to Fair Haven; the company were in fine spirits, and the delightful views were enjoyed with a keen relish. Thanks, many thanks, to our brethren of the New Haven press. In the course of the ride the residences of Messrs. Osborne of the Register, and Carrington of the Journal, were visited, where entertainments had been provided. Throughout the entire day the members of the press in New Haven were unceasing in their efforts to make the visit of their brethren pleasant, and well did they succeed. It was one of those occasions which will long be remembered. Another pleasing feature of the day was the acquaintances which were formed with our brethren in different parts of the State. We hope often to have the gratification of renewing it. The fraternity voted to hold annual meetings hereafter, though a special one is to be held in this city some time in the course of the fall, to mature some plans which weresuggested. May they always be as — as this one—Hartford’ Cou- rant, June 10. From NewrounpLanp.—The Lieutenant Gover- nor bas drawn on himself the indignation of the House of Assembly, by sending a message to that body, inform- ing them that the Revenue act would expire in three days, ord that it was time they should passa new Revenue bill. ' The members of the Assembly characterized it 8 Cromvellian act, ‘the most atrocious, black, and cot demnable” in the annals of Newfoundland, and con- cluded by upapimoutly voting it a breach of the privi- jeges of the House. the following day they passed the Revenue bill The Greenville and Miami Railway Company are about to lay down a track along side the Dayton and Western from the junction to Dayton.
