8 ‘The Stanvvix Gall Tragedy. SUPREME COURT. Before Hon Jadge Strong. {CHE TRIAL OF BAKER TO BE HAD IN SUFFOLK, OR SUCH OTHER COUNTY 48 COUMIEL MAY AGREB UPON, JonnG.—The People agt. Lewis Baker, James Turner, Patrick McLaughlin, Cornelius Linn, Charles Van Pelt Qnd John Hyler.—The defendants stand indicted for the alleged murder of William Poole, in the city and county of New York. The indictment contains es many counts esthere are defendants, respectively charging each as primary, and the oth as secondary principals. The first count charges the defendant Baker as the most pro- minent actor, and the others as belng present at the soene of the murder, and aicing and abetting him. He elected to be tried separately. He was first tried ata Counrt of Oyer and Terminer, held befere Judge Rooze- velt in the county of New York, (where the venue is laid and the indictment was ivund,) in Decem>er last. ‘The trial lss'ed nearly & for'night, and reguited ib the of the jurors and their discharge. His tria! again commenced ai a Court of Oyer and Ter- miner helo before me, pursuant to an appointment by the Chiet Judge of the Cours of Appoals in the same county, on the 14th of April iast, Five hundred jurors had beex summoned to attend trial. Of that oum- ber. five ony were sworn, the others having fatled to at- tend, or having been excused or rejected on cbalienges {yr caure, oF om ptory chalienges ia bebaif of the defendant, ther panel of five hundred jarora ‘Was then ordered, and they were summoned to attend eventually on the 24th of April; on that and the next days seven of the last pavei were procured, who, from thelr answers, appeared io be free from any legal excap- tioms. One of them was excused from serving. a8 he was conscientiously opposed to at:eading to any secular busi- ness oo the Jewith Sabdath, and it was conceded that the trlal would extend beyoud suob day. Tne other six were sworn, when that panel was exhausted. Another of two hundred and fifty was theo ordered for the 20n of April. On the last mentioned day tne 12th juror was obtsined, there remaining in the box, when his name was dravn, about twen'y undrawn ballots. The empannel- lingjof the jury occupied vearly four days. About four hundred persons appeared; of those two hundred and twenty: two were set aside on challenge for havirg formed and expresse¢ an opipion a he guilt or ipnocense of ‘the accused on trial, three were peremptorily challenged by him, twelve were swore as before stated, acd the re- maining jurors were exsvsei or eventually dissha-ged. ‘The trial proceeded # shor. t'me, durirg which two wic- nesses were examined on the 20:n of April, Oa the next day cne o the jarors +w.rn failed to attend, and Sppeare3, on an exacioat from him, ‘that and probably would remaia for a deruble period, by imdisposition. Tae counsel for Baker thereupon propcred tant the trial should proceed before the eleven jurors who wers thea pri sent, or that the Jew who had been excused should ait on the trial, acd thus complete the rumber, and that those who re- remained of thelist pine: sheuld be revummoned, and that the person Whose vame ahovld be first drawn should be sworn and act as tue tweltth yuror. Taeze propo- Bitiors were ‘leclined by tae counsel for the people, and the eleven jurors were thereupon discharged. The coart was tbea garned to the frst Taescay in June, and a so papel of ove thousand ju’o1s was ordered, Subsequently to the Jast mentioned’ a¢j mrament, a certiorari was is- sued by ihe District Atiorney, aud allowed by Judge Roosevelt, removing the action ‘nto the Supreme Court. On the 24th of Mey two uoucas were Special Teum held before mein New York, pursuant toan ap- peiniment made by the Chief Jacge of the Court of Ap- pea'r, ard ale> at the request of tne Justices of the First Jadiciai District. who were o harwise epgsgad—one by the counsel for the prisoners, taat the certiora:i should be quasbed as bavirg ceen improvidently issued, and the other by tke cownrel for the people, thas the placa of uw sbeuld be :cbergec to some other connty, on the grcurd tbat a feir and impartial trial, of the action cculd not be had in the city and county ef New York. The prisozer’sy counsel contend in support of their iotion the: a certiorari to re murs sn indictment from the Oyer and Termi- per to the Supreme Tt cannot lewfully issue at the inetence of the counsel for ine prosecution. There can be no condt but that 15 ha: always been esmpatenc for the counsel for the crown in England, and since our revolu‘ion for the the people ia this Smo (unless the power bas beep abrogated by the statutory provirione whish I sbi copsider,) to remove crimical actious from the Oyer and Terminer to » h gher tribuval by certiorari, Mr. Cbitty. io hia valuable work on crimipal law (vol. 1, p.3' afer citing several acts of Pariiamen: resticiing or regulating the practice upoa certicrari in criminal cases, ssyr:—‘ But there acts ap- ply only to writs of c+rtiora:i cm tae part of tue cetend- ants, ard therefore the crown ands private prosesator mey still ootain them, without affidavit or recognizance, unlera exoresaly prohibited by partieu'ar statute,” and he elites Sth Dumford & East's Keporta, 626; 6th D. & C., 194; 3a Borsnquet & Puller’s Reports, 854; 24 Strange’a R, KO 16 wper, R., 18; ist Eas.’s R. 305; 15th East's R, 327: Bacon's Abridgment, title ‘‘ Certiorari,”” ©. Avd again the seme suthor remarks (p. 378) the wri: of certiorari is demsndab e cf absolate rignt only by the King bimeel, and to him the Court is bouad t> grant it, Tbe Ecglish reports are fall of cases where eertioraris to rem ve criminal actions from the Oyer and Terainer to the Court o g's Bench (which, as to its jarisdiztion in crimioal eases, cor- xesponés with the Sapreme Court in this State) have been istued on ‘the apoveation of the of- ficers o' the crown. The ca-e in 31 Bosanquet and Puller (p. £54), cites by Mr. Chit'y, was before the Howse of Lords, nd it was deci¢ed ty tbat tribunal thet tne certi- orari could be issued by the officers of tae crown, not. withstancing general restrictive words ia an act of Par. Hament tn re erence to the class of cases to which the de- cision referred. Thezignht of the prosecucion to issue this p:O:ess is impliedly recognized in this State in the provision of the revised statutes (21 R. 8., 734), that “all iseuer of fac: joined upon apy incivtment shall be tried by a jury in the county where such incistment was foun’, unles tor special caures the Supreme Court shall order an isdisiment remcved into that court to be tried in eome other county.’ T.is speaks of the removal of c i. mifcal causes as a ing eommon law prac and makes no attempt t ict it. There are several cases in our courts which sustain the rigat to obtaia tais pro- cess in behslf of the pe: ple. In tne case of the Peop'e vs. Vermiyen and others (7 Cowen, 141), where one of the inciztments had been removed to the ‘Supreme Court by cer.iorari, the Distrizt Attorney inquired whether he should give toe other indictments the same direction by issuing writs of certiorari for th-ir removal to that ccurt. To which Chief Jastice Savage answer. ed, “You must take your own couree on that sudjsct. You have a right to remove ths other causes or to them where you are, as you ehali think advisabe. In the case of the People ve, Webd (let Hil, 179), where the deencant bad been tmdicted for a libel on J. Fenimore Cooper, im the coun ycf U.sezo, the indictment was re- moved by certiorari, om the spplication of the District Attorne;, from the Uyer and Terniser to the Supreme Cou: 'd the plaee o' trial was charged io the county of Montgcmery, In that case the certiorari to the Oyer ana lerminer had beea obtaised sfier that Court nai that the trial should proeeed, or that nollie vi ebculd be entered.

Theindictmeat may, vevertheles, be hereafter remanded Oyer and Terminer for should ere Pegepeprnoe a teri far the mcat q my ropaicezation is, whether the place of trial should cannot be had in the city and county 5 Tnere are many palpable reasons why trials 10 criminal c1ses should ordinaifly be had in the coutties where the transactions which gave rise to them occurred, and a change shculd not be made except for foretble and clear- ly established causes. Our statutes require that issues of fact joined upon any indictment shall be tried by a jury in tbe county where such indictment was found, unsess for spesial causes the Supreme Court shall order an indictment removed into that court, to be tried in sowe other county (24 R 8., 733,91). Mr. Chitty aa; (vol. 1, p. 495), that, ‘ Not very strong evidence of par- Uality will be required in order to induce ths court to listen to the nnpllestice forthe removal’’ (to another place of trial). To that I cannot assent, nor is the posi. ticn supported by the autherities to which the learmed author refers.{1n one of the cases cited by bia (Rex vs Herris, 8d Burrows, R., 1,833). Lord Mansfield ssid: “There must be a clear and dolld foundation fur the suggestion” (of partiality). The question as to the uniainess or partiality of drawn juror does rot refer exclusively to his feelings, but extents to any opixion which ke may have formed and expressed in refe- rence toany material question involved ia the controver- sy, and which may a? allicfluence bis decision. Thus, ore who acted as a Grand Juror waen the indictment? was feurd, or who (i ; r cennot from consciantious scruples which would lead to the punishment of fied, although he has no hostile or fayo: wards the ceferdant. Some cf the English autaorities reom to indicate ‘hat some feeling of tne juror, either hostile or friew render it effectut in th's St wust ba involved in the objection to ; but it has been otherwise adjudicated te, Inthe case of the People vs. Vermilyea, lish and American authorities were e pepe d by Jucge Woodworth; and he expres nion, in which the other judges concurred, that a oh: lenge, because the juror had expressed an opinion, is for principal cause, and need not be ac:ompanied by parsoa- al ill-will to ren it valid (lat Cowen, 108.) A juror should bave the ability, and one who is conscientious wou'd feel the inclination, to decide all questions of fect sabmitted to him solely from nc impartial view of the evidence, without beirg at ell influenced by ulterior considerations; but that would be difficult, if mot impoa- sible, where he had previously formed and expresse? a strcng opinion upon the matter, espacially if it corres- ponded with the public sentiment. Let him exert him- seif as he may, be cannot wholly avotd the ciiicul'y. He will, in @ ‘case where the testimony is oontra- dictory, yield a more reaty credence, and give greater weight to that which sustains then that which opposes his preconception— such is the infirmity of the human mind, andwe mast take It as we find it. When the opinions exiead «0 far as to ba- come the general sentiment in tte communi:y where a rial of an exciting case is had, it formsa serious obstacle to the due administration of jastice, and the evil should be arrested when that is possible. In the case under con tideration there were many circumstances ca!culated to attract attention, and to induce the formation and ex- pression of opinion, especially in a community prover- Dialiy excitabe. Ofthece some of the more prominent were the publiccbatacter of the deceased, and some of those who were present at the time whea ne receivad hia death wound, and who bave been charged with a partici. tion in the tragedy; tne singular prolongation of the fife of the wounded man with a dailin his heart; the im- mense funeral prec*eeion which accompanied and follow- ed the body to the grave; the flight of one of the persons charged with the he de a 3 the ocaan; the pureuit and capture cf the ‘ngitive under circums‘ances wish inducea the strorg condemnation cf h's eloquent counsel onthe argument before me; his sabsequent protracted trial, ard the puolicetion in the newspapers of the city of the testimony, which was taken with gre minuteness, ot the eloquent speeches of the coan- nel, ard of the elaborate and ab'e charge of the presiding jadge. It is not at all remarkable that these circur stances should have !ed to the furmation and exprersion of opinions by the citizens ot New York, esp> cial y those who witnesse! any of the exziting sveaea, or who read the newspapers, That there is a strong and all tut universal sentiment tn the city as to the truth or talsity of the charge aa it respects the defendant Baker, was apparent frozn the statements of the jurors who ap- peared before me. Ufthetwo bundred and thirty eight who were €xamized, sll but sixteen baa both formed and expresced opipioraas to tbe alleged guilt of the priaoner, anc still retained ibem. The numberof those wo passed the orceal cfa strict examizatio was so ‘nconsiterable that they could not be ceemed a fair representation of ‘the intelligence and reliability of the class whic com- prices the jurors of the county. The jurors who were admitted may all bave been respectable men. I had 20 perecnal acquaintance with either of them, and heard rothing ageinst any of them, except some insinuations by the DistrietfAttorney on the argumunt, which, as they were not eupported by any evidence, esnaot bs regarded in tke Cecision of the motion which is now un- Ger consideration. It, however, they were all reliable mer, tush a ccnsumation was uoder the circumstances, 8) zemarkable that a similar reralt op any future attempt could not be re: Ucipated. Where so few out of so large jurors aze at all a¢mussible, the rigut to cb ¢ twenty ‘peremptorily, whieh cur uly secure to persons tried for capital offences, g' he defendants almost the entire control in the selection of the jary. In cases were all, cr the grea‘er p.rtion, of tbose summoned, are unexeeptionable, the full exsrcise of this priviiege cannot operate frejudicially, but it is qoi e apparent that waere me, but three jurcrs were chalienged peremptor dinsrily that might raise an in‘erence that toe adm! jurors were peculiarly acceptable to the defend: it was in this fastense I am unable to aay. that be was unacquainted w.th any of the jaror: had no influence uver them. However, am bouni to corrider the porsible and (generally) probab'e fect of tae existence and exertion o1 the privilege. the trial of this action rhou'd preeted in New York it would probably be recersary, an it was before, to summon mote than one panel. Where so many are t) te selested aad snmmoned, ® considerable number of days must necsasarily inter- yere. Durirg that time, ths jurors ai: sworn mast (at least uncer our prectice) be permitted to reparate ani to mingle with their fellow cliizens without any restric'ion. The irjusction to hold no conversation with cthers cn the subject of the trial may be cbeyed by c: nstientious mer; but !t scmetimes happens that one is Sworn as @ juror who is nota corscientious msn, and as tosuch therecante no security, Besides. there is no rerpensitility upon the outsiders, and the inconsiderate i'l express their op'niors, and azgue to support them, in the hearing of the sworn jarors, Tae danger of im- proper infiuences trom such causes is very considerabie, Ismaware tbat some similar difficuity’ may cecur j vicg the trial; and I propos:d to introdue trials for murder in tke cily of New ears sgo, I was warned by tre Judges of that district that 1 would be @ dacgerous precedent. a Tstill think, that ssarcaly ary state of c\reumstances will jastify the reclusion and conficerent of the jurors ana particuiszly ot the in- firm, ard of these extensively engaged in busioess, dur ing a protracted trial, fiom the tixe when they are sworn until they render their verdic!. Tne practics of thus confining them wou'd operate very ivjuriously to the ad- mixtstraticn «f justice, as the more reliable men would re fuse torit atallcn trials for murcer. The separation dur- irg tke trislis so evideotly just that the danger resul:ing form i: is a matter approachiog very near to # necessity; buta state of circumstances which woud increase the risk ehovld, if pessible, be avcided. In thia case if a juégment ia to be f.rmed from the past, and it must be, it will be d'ffeult to preeure any jary, aad still mors 80 to obtain one by which a fair, impartial and effectual trial ean Le bad in the ecunty of New York. Although a sufficient number of qualified jurors might pomibly be friends of those who might not save ormed or expressed any cpinion as to the guilt or frnecence of the aczused, yet the strong ¢xisting public entiment must be knowa fluerce. The jurors may to them. and it wi.l bave its init be charged to disregard it, but they canrot du that, with all their efforts, During an experience of many years I do not remember a verdict ina criminal ease in cpporition to a strcng public sentiment previousiy entertained and gerersl'y bncw. If tha’ hay tea erroneous—nad it some- times is—it will probably lead to an upjost vercic:. If there rheu'd be a divided sentiment, it would reenlt a Cisegreemcnt, acd the trial thes proveaboriive, Whether the ipability of the jury first emparnelied in this action to agree upon'a verdict sesulteé from the effec: of publis opinion upen the minda cf some ot the number cannot be certaiviy known, Perhaps it may te, under the cir- cumalacces, the irferrab'e cause; but I do not place any Ia sufliciens wi-hout it to jon which | have adopted, that partial and ¢ffectuai trial of this ac‘ion cann be haa in New York, and that, therefore, it should tal place in some other county. The counsel for the ¢ fencant McLiughlin contended that the action thould not be rent into ano her county for trial, ax, if it shoud take tbat cirection a8 to one it must as to and nc thir g appeared to prove that his ¢ tent eould not have a felr trial in the county of New York. It is undoubted ly true that as to the question whethe: Mclaughlia par ticipated in the trenvacticn at ail, or in sny mancer which w uld make bia resprnsible, there i+ no eviderca toat eny « piniors have been formed or expres ed. But then when cne Is chaiged as wn active par (o'pator, aa oy nion aa to the guilt or inncceace cf one cf tae ac‘ors, and expecially when all were t ge'her, must have au im: would dlrnalt'y eaned portent bearirg as to ail, and ® procored jurcr who bad eotertained ard expn it on the triel of either of the cefen*ants, bia work on the Pleas of “the exoep.ion to an indictor ia good potber irdio'ment, or action whereia erisei her in question cr happens to be ch no’ direet'y in iseue"’ The priac'ple the guilt of an associate would ex ned by the Superior Court, in the Vermilyea and others.’’' There a aifionity tm «btaining @ faic and jnciced jury im New York to try either of the ce mis.

A Cargo of Japanese Goods Sold at Auction. A sale of a somewhat novel character tock place yester- day the auction rooms of Leavitt, Delliser & Co., Broadway, The articles disposed of wae a portion of a cargo of Japanese goods, which was brought to this port some weeks since by Capt. Badger, of the echooner Gen. Pierce, Those put up at austion and exposed to view in the ealesrcom were exquisite specimens of workmanship. Ore table was particularly deserving of notice. Its value is estimated at a thousand dollars, and the top is inlaid with @ silver border, while the centre is intended to represent the sea, with numerous varieties of the finny tribes swimming about in ‘ts transparent depths, The fishes are made of pearl, and every fin and scale is as clearly defined as in a steel engraving. Another spesi- men of Japanese irgenuity was asort of multum in parw cabinet, with any number of drawers ; « bottle formed of a peculiar kind of black wood, and several drinkiog gia of the same material On the top of the cabinet was a Japaness house, the doors of which, when opened, disclosed another set of drawers and vari- ous contrivances, the ure of whish would puzzle any one but a Japatese. "We may hops, however, in course of time, to ariive at a knowledge of these things and a great many other curiosi‘ies which thore people Bave hitherto eecaavcres vo hold from the Inowledge of the rest of the world, ‘The sale commenced about ten o’clock, and there were somewhat over a huncred pesons present, a large number of whom were lacies. fair sex manifested the great- est interest, and a copsicemble number of the articles were purchased by them. Sii'l the bidding was not so lively aa might have been expected, although Captain Baoger will doubtless be able, not only to pay expenses, but realizs a eer! iy on his cargo. The austion was concucted by Mr. W. C. Cook, who madea few re- marks in regerd to the articles and the way in which \bey had been procured He said:— Ladies and Gontlemen—Before commencing this sale, I think it my cuty to makes few brief remarks relative to Capt.,Badger’s visit t> Japan. On bis arnival at Simoda his vessel was boarded by some 25 or 80 Japanese officers, who wished to know for what purpose he came there; to this the captain answered that he merely came to viow the ports and observe the manner in which they carried out their treaty; finally be asked them if they would Fermit Lim to purchare some goods, to which they re- plied yer, toa small ancunt;soin the course of a few Guys they opened the becaar for his inspection. On exe- mining the goods he was surprised at the high figures marked on them. On applying to the officers if there could be no reduction made from those prices, they an- swe ed no, and even at these Sgures he could only purchase aceriain amount, which was very small. However, by everpy perseverance, he was enabled to procure the lot you now see betcre you. Capt. Ba’ger had two ad- ven eges in obteinirg this cargo—firat, his vessel was pamec alter our prerent President. To use their owa words, they think General Pierce a mighty big gua (which is much more than many of us a0). ‘Secondly, he proniced to take with him Mr. Rudolph, who bai ved there for some months and made himself particularly obncxiows to the cfficers. Unfortunately, you cennot deal with the merchant; everything must be dcne through the officers, the gcvernment realizing two- thirds of the amcunt paid. Again, our dollar is equiva- lent to theirs, but on receiving cars they cut it up and make three of theirs cut of it: so, you see, there are many disscvanteges in purchasing from them. They make a great show for honesty; for instance, after the goods were placed on beard and accounts settled, the day previous to railing, the vessel was honored by a visit trom twenty or twenty-five cfficials who wished to sec Capt. Padger on burinesa cf importance. On making his Sppearance, they. with bows and scrapes, informed him that upon examicing their accounts they found an error in his favor smounting to $1, which they came to re- turn. This may have been honesty, but the Captain was strongly imprersed with the ices that it was ao excuse to crable them to have a chance to drink his surplus of champagne, which they are very fond of. 1 eou'd relate many stusirg incidents which oceurred during ths Cap- toin’s stay, but have not time.

Olty Lmprevements. OBANGES IN THE LOWER PART OF THE CITY—WHITS MARBLE, BROWN STONE AND IRON FRONTS. A few years ago brown stone fronts to large stores ‘were all'the rage, and there was a Canger that our busi- ness architecture would become of a very sombre hue, but this year a total change in this respect has taken Place. Three out of four ot our newly erected stores are of white marble, and it must be confessed that so far as appearance goes it bas greatly the advantage, especially in narrow streets, or where » number of them are together. ‘The difficulty has heretofore been that American mar- ble was dearer than brown stone, and of an inferior de- scription compared with European. The white marble bulldings constructed five years ago havea stained and unpleasant appearance now, owing to their liability to be influenced by the weather, and to cateh and fix the floating particles of dirt always fiying about in the atmosphere of a large city. When the first experi: ments in marble proved failures, brown stone eame into use, and many stores were built of it. Bat it ‘was found that there were serious objestions to this kind of stone, It was found to be friable and liable to disinte- gration under the action of frost and the frequent changes of temperature in our climate. A variety of fresstone of 8 drab color, is much admired; it comes from New Bruns- wick. The Mechanica’ Bank in Wall street affords » good specimen of it. Within three years past a new variety of marble has been dicovered, which, besides being one-third cheaper than freestone, is in every way superior for building pur- poses, and is open to none of the disadvantages to which the old marble was liable. It is of a brilliant white, Gelicately veined, and impervious to atmospheric fluctue- tions. it will retain its color for as yet an indeterminate nurcber of years. These advantages have given the new marble an immediate and immense popularity. But to the new buildings:— In Wall street, Jacob Samson is buildings fine edifice on Nos. 14 and 16. It will have a marble front of 44 feet, ‘and will cost $50,000. It willbe used for offices. The Union Bank is to be rebuilt on its old site, andit isin contemplation to make it s most magnifcent edifice, worthy of the street and the banking interest of the city. It is to bave a marble front, with ornate adornments, with iron beams, partitions and supporters, so as to be unmistakeably fire proof. It will cost, perhaps, $80,000. The banking rcome will be in the rear and counect with the atreet by a corridor. In Nazsau street there are several fine buildings near completion, Duncan & Sherman’s banking house is nearly finished, at a cost of $180,000. It is thoroughly fire proof, and is a most splendid stracture. At Nos. 5 and 7 Nassau street the buildings are being torn down to give place toa fine edifice of New Bruns- wick free atone for the Continental Bank, which will cost $100,C00. At the corner of Naesau and Cedar streets the new Bank of Commerce is nearly completed, at a cost of $1£0,000. It willke ready for occupancy about the end of next fall, It is a superb buildirg, constructed of mar- ble and iron, and fire proof, This edifice throws our old Post Office quite in the shace. It is not creditable to the general government that the greatest postal station in the United States is such @ poor affair, architecturally. On the corner of Nassau and Beekman streets Mr. Whitlock is about to add sixteen feet to the building he has recently completed. As soon as the lawyers get througa with the Brick Chureh, i: is to be demolished, and a new building con- structed, At the corner of Excharge place and William street a fine structure has just been completed, at a cost of $120,000. It bas iron roof and beams, and will be fire- proof. It is to be occupied by the Bank of the State of New York. The Fulton Bank, corser of Pear] and Fulton streets, is coming down, and a new building, fifty feet square, three stories in height, and fireproof, will be erected; cost, $80,000. The lower part, to be cccapied by the bank, will be of rustic asbler brown stone; the upper stories of brick, with a stone cornice, which will be very pretty. In addition to the buildings already noticed in the Hrna1p, on Brcadway, may be mentioned the one avout to be put up on the corner of Murray street, by J. Grosvenor, 30 feet on Broadway, and 140 feet on Murray street, It will yield a rental of $20,000. ‘Aéjoining the Chemical Bank, near Chambers street, « new house is to be put up, the nature of which has no yet trarepired. Between Leonard and Worth streets, alro, a building 40 feet front and 180 deep is to be soon erected that will be quite an ornament in Its way. On the corner cf Grand the old American Hall bas been knocked down, to give place to a building to Le @ ected by a brother of Mayor Wood. It isto be 30 feet by 100, o white marble, ornamented, and wil make quite a fancy edifice, Cost $70,000. No, 449 Breadway, owned by Mathew Morgan, will be built up wih a splendid stoze, to coat abont $35,000, and which is leased by Merchant & Co. The Lafarge Hotel is now completed, and will be opsned very toon by Mr. Burrovghs, late of the Irving House, The buildirg cost nearly $200,000, It presenta a front of white marble, 150 feet in length. At the corner of Broome street a megvificent iron buflding is to be erected for the owner, Mr. Walter Lang- don, and is leased to Mr. E, V. Heugbwout. It is to be five stories above ground, and two under, wich ex‘ensive vaults, &c, The frente on Broadway avd Broome str are to be of cast iron, painted white, and in the Venetian (Cinque Cent:) style. Each story above the firat is to consist of three quarter engaged columna with pedesials ard entablatures. Tho upper cornice is fully enriched and preportiored to the whole height of the building. ‘The windows are formed by semi-circular keyed archi- valts rest.ng on subordidate entablatures and detached columne, with an open balustrade to each window. All the columns and balusters will be flu ed end of the Co- rintbian order fully carried ou. Kings County Court of Oyer and Termincr. JUDGE ROCKWELL ON THE LIQUOR LAW.
