UP AGAIN—THE ALLIGATOR COMMITTEE TRIUMPHANT. ‘The resolution to make a blank sppropriation passed ‘the Board of Councilmen for the employment of counsel ‘im the caseof the Police Investigating Committee vs. contumacous witnesses came up. Alderman Howanrn, thought there should be no addi- tional counsel employed, as the Counsel to the Corpors- ‘tion was fully com + to conduct the case of the committee. He moved to strike out ‘‘addisionsl counsel.” Alderman Lorn spoke against the proceedings of the committee, denouncing ‘thelr course to some extent. He considered such an investigstion as they were making a dingrace to the Bourd, and hoped the other members ‘would with him vote against any further action of the kind. The main object, he thought, was the aggrandize- ment ofa few individuals the ‘outside Secretary’’ to ‘the “Alligator Committee’ included. Alderman WAKEMAN contended that the question new ‘was not as to the objects of the committee in making the investigation, but the authority of committees gen- erally. The as dy aerate had empowered the Common Council, through their committews, to investigate, also to summon witnesses before them on any subject before them. This right was questioned by some of the police, and he wished to see the matter tested, so that the Com- mon Council would know where they stood and the full extent of their power. Alderman Herrick spoke against the ‘‘Alligator Com- mittee,” as he termed it, and pronounced their proceed- ings, from ning toend, farce. He thought such 9 committee should not meet with encouragement from the Board. Alderman Howarp asked why additional counsei should be employed when # man li . Dillon was Counsel to the Corporation, with a salary of $20,000 te $20,000 per year. He had known counsels te the Corporation to make $30,000 and $100,000 year; and where was the necessity of tax- the ought to be incurred by a seommtite , legally constituted. Ald.

He dweit for some time on the subject of Mr. Mackellar and the dog pound Alderman Kri1y contended that the objects sought by this committee were not public goo’, but individual dizement, and to prejudice she public against the ‘Fics department. He considered the wroceeding an un- ‘warrantable interference with the Police Commissioners, who, in his opinion, alone have ths power to make such in tions. Alderman Voornis favored the committee, more parti- cularly that the legal point in question might be set- tied, but he advised the committee not to expend over for counsel. after rome ineffectual amendments, the resolution was adopted by a vote of 12 to 10, THE BOSTON ALDERMEN. ‘The resolution appropriating $500 to entertain a dele- gation of the Boston Common Council now in the city, fas concurred in. Ali. Voorhis, Brown, Drake, Wake: maa and Herrick, were appointed a special committee. On motion of Alderman Wakeman, Ald. Barker, the Pre- dent, was added to the committee.

G: Bf , Dr. Minor, — Va Sunday School Union Anniversary of the Re= formed Dutch Church, The annual gathering of the Sabbath schools attached tothe General Synod of the Reformed Dutch Church took place yesterday, at Dr. Knox’s Church, in Lafaye ette place. The church was densely crowded with the little people, the great majority of whom were girls. ‘They were all dressed neatly, and the scholars attached to the respective schools were adorned with appropriate ensignia, badges, rosettes, ribbons, and the like, to dis- tinguish them one from the other. During the some- what lengthy exercises, the children manifested an or- der and ¢iscipline hardly to be expected, and reflected credit on themselves and their teachers. The epectacle presented ‘was most interesting. The neat banners of he respective schools, gaily decked with ribbons, were placed above, below, and around the pulpit, making a very picturesque scene. After a prayer from the ayo & hymn was sung by the children, when Rey, Mr. Col yer addressed them. He gave them lots of good advice, in simple language adapted to the capacity of the chil- dren, and some of the audience thoaght a little below it. Dr. Vermilye next addressed the assembly briefly, after which a hymn was sang, concluaing with the following verse:— ‘Onrard, let your march be steady; Earth may fondly bid you 8) Foes to maryour peace are read, Legions would obstruct your way; Onward still; ‘no hope can peris! Which is placed on God alon ‘ours the cause which he will cherish, Yours will be the victor’s crow: The services were concluded with the singing of the Doxology, after which the little folks were marched out of the Church in regular order. They all seemed highly pleased with their entertainment. r of very pretty female teachers attached re a num| schools, Mayor’s Office.

Judge Edmends’ Last Revela- tien from the Spirit World—His Interview with the Fictitious Hero of Mr, Ewer’s Californian Romance. TO THB EDITOR OF THE HERALD. ‘With your liberty I desire to address a few lines of reply to the letters of Judge J. W. Edmonds and one W. J. Bauer, (published in the Heraup of the 20th of Mareb,) baving reference to me and to “The Eventful Nights of August 20th and 2lst.”” It is perhaps folly for me to:state so evident a fact as that the Judge’s letter is utterly wide of the contro- versy. He does not make the slighest pretension to meet the real merits of the affair at all. He incontinently packs up, without saying one word, and leaves the field. Yes, it iseven so; he has been weak enough to re- publish as true—as corroborative of his theory—a fiction from which the slighest analysis would have developed several impossibilties and numberless improbabilities— fiction which is evidently an argument sbowing his own proposition to be absurd—a fiction which, even if it were not an argument against himself, contains a theory before which bis own mart fall; and to crown all, he bas beld solemn conversations with a fictitious character, with whom, even if the tale were true, he could not, according to its statements, have held any communication whatever, Not one item does he deny, ADd thé controversy ts, im fact, cloued. But he is not utterly undeserving of praise in the affair, for it cannot but be admitted that he has had the frankmess to come out and acknowledge (hu- miliating though it may be) that he is in a corner, Frankness is a jewell. Whether he could have taken any other step is not, perbaj inquired into too closely. It is, one murt confess, no very pleasant admission for a man to be compelled to make, that, after having been for years upo™ the bench deciding upon the soundness or fallacy of arguments, he should have been so farled astray—be should have been ‘fool enongh,’’ to use his own phrase—to admit and republish am argument going decidedly to dis- prove the very proposition which he seeks to estab! Indeed, Mr. Editor, upon the principle of not kicking a man when he is down, I haveno desire to do aught else than to commend the Judge to the kind sympathiss of the public, But what does this lame rejoinder of his amount to? Wsy, finding himself im an inextricable predicament, he struggles to get out of his corner by explaining how it happened that ne got in, and, under the circumstances, crying “Mercy!'? The ridiculousness of bis pitiful aitu- ation would induce meto say no more, but as his ex- planation conteins seversl assertions, expressed and implied, which call for a flat denial from me, 1 am forced to the melancholy resort of driving bic out of lus cor. ver—poshing him from the Jast beam where be h foothold, . is explanation appears to be, that, ned, on urdoubwd authority, that I 'w a truthful man, and incapable’ of publishing a fraud. I commend him to the seme kind antho- rities still, and to thet portion of my letter ia the first, I Huray of the 12th of March, to which he has forgotten, to allude, where I stated that “I conceived | liad « per- fect right as a truthful man to proponnd a theory which Abad never seen in print before, and wirich: I might not be without interest to some—to hold | ata charge of arrogance, the resilt of an unaided miad on earth in contrast with a theory purporting toc from @ world beyond the grave—to contrast a t which is, as Tthink, consistent In all its parts, amd say the feast not impossible, with» theory which tradicte iteelf, and therefore canust passib’y be trae. [ believed I had a perfect rigut to weave that theory into | a fiction, which as # whois would be the argument re ductio ad absurdum to be applied against spirituaiiem, withoat subjecting myself to the charge of being « man regardless of the bigh dictates of truth.” It may be an evidence of unusaal segacity in the Judge, that he has not attempted to violate all common sense by denying the correctness of the above. But until be shall have done so, he must not expect ms to exhibit an equal want of common sense with himself, by noticing fur- ther a mere assertion of his—that because I wrote “The Eventful Nights’’ I have shown myself regardless of truth—which has already been fally answered. Bis second explanation is, that Isent him a copy of the magazine by agentleman direct from San Francisco, say- ing to that gentlemen, *’: ~~ think I would publish a lie under my own name?” My memory is tolerable, and it ere serves me with the fact that I'sent an exchange to Ju ie Eémonds of the Sacred Circle, while the other exchanges were preparing for the mail. Bat this is child’s play, What could the Judge cesire to establish more than that 1 wished to have a magazine go direct to him? If, in his agitation, he is anxious to excite sym- patby for himself through this fact, I wiilgive him the opportunity. I did direct a magazine to him, put it inc> the mail, and of course positively intended that it should reach him. But before I proceed further, let me, in this connection, make an extract from his letter:— “If the object of the device” says he, ‘‘and ail the pains taken to carry it out, was to impose on my confi it has been successft y that there was any device on my itive 1 deny that I took any to deceive ee yoae wl seca aie eaouaguereet Tate y fect right, either through private hands or through th; mail, to piace it beneath his eyes. The theers developed in if Biter opposed fe bis, &ndI mupposed it Would be éniertaizine to him. I thought, of cour that he would read the Judge credit had been “for it with interest. Bat I ga’ for ordinary sagacity; years pen the beach of a criminal court,’’ and I was never mere astonished in wy life than when I recetved his letter, announcing that he had been rash enough to publish the first half, Even then I supposed that when he should see the last half he would certainly find out his error. Bat no, he completed his humiliation by republishing that also, ‘hich he, and giving several communications wi . forsooth, bad received from the fictitious character, “Joha F. Lane,” who, asI have sa‘d above, even if the article were true, was represented as entirely beyond the reach of communicating with any one on earth. But whether I or any one else did or dil not send him the magazine, the Judge seems to forgst, in his agitation, that it really mases no difference. Supposing. for the wake of argument, that I sent him a magazine by a mes- senger direct, it will not help the matter for him, sinee he none the less blindly overlooxed all the internal! evi- dences of the fictitious character of the arti Je, and dis regarded the advice of bis friends who cautioned him against it. ‘There is little else for me to state, The Jud; that if the object of the ‘Ccevice,”” forscoth, ‘ was to show the great liabiity to deception one is under from falne or fabricated communicstions, it was nnoecesvary, 1 had long ago learned tbe fact and cautioned others inst it.’’ It is to be regretted that the Judge was not guided by the light of bisexperience. “If,” sayshe, “the object was to give me the pain of learning that a gentleman , &e., was unworthy of confience, it was unneces- ssry, for] had learned the public use head made of my private letter to bim, and it was not demanded that he should superadc to it the humiliation of proclaiming his own fraud.” As for being uaworthy of confidence, I have answered that above, by Loree anextract (rom my fi ter, which the Judge has wisely ignored. As for making public use of a private letter, I would state that the Judge is misinformed. The letter has not besa ublished, It bas never left my banda, nor any copy of t. I consider it as equally sacred with a letter from my ister. ‘ Proclaiming my own fraud” is unworthy apy apawer after my fig: letter to the Henao. If,” says be, ‘ the purpore was to convince ma thet wen may bot be what they ecem, it was unnecessary; forI bad not presided so long over inal conrt, without learning romething of the degradation to which the influence of evil parsions aud s perverted education may sink the fairest seeming among us.’’ The Judge only makes the matter worre in his agitation the far- For, admitting tat I were a man rego he here proves that his experience bas remarks, availed him naught, “But,” saye he, “if the purpore was to induce me to withhold all confidence iu my fellow men, it hae signally failed.” Ab, Judge, it should teach you to have less confidence in yourself. But with regard to these “ifs,” I beg the Juige to bear in mind, orse again, that there were no iatsations whatever on my part, for I sincerely assure him that [ had not the sligbtest ices he would be ‘foo! enough” to royale “The Eventiul Nights of August 20th aad aa If it would not be considered as arrogance in mo to drop one little word of advice to him, { would say that by far be sagest plan for him to have adopted, when jon to re- ani be found himself in his coraer, would have main there, looking up with an sir of uncoscern; when the laugh was over and his agitation wi he could have slipped quietly out and go: into obscurity, unnoticed by any one.
