Important Decision of Judge Davies. — Supreme Court—Special Term. Before Hon. Judge Davies. ‘Aver. 28.—Fbrnando Wood vs. Simeon Draper and others. Motion for @ preliminary injunction.—Davus, J.—This motion has been argued with an ability commensurate with its importance, and with the high standing at the bar of the distinguished counsel employed in the cause. ‘The plaintiff files bis complaint in this cause, al- feging therein that he is a tax payer in the city of New York, and one of the corporators thereof; and raps that the defendants may be restrained from tho execution of a statute which be alleges to be uncon- @titational and yold, The relief demanded in the com Piaial, which it is competent for this Court to grant ina proper case, is @ perpetual injunction, restrainiag the de- Sendants from the execution of the act. The sutbority for this Court to interfere by way of preliminary in- Junction is soquired by section 219 of the Code. Tk aathorizes the Court, when i} shall appear to it ‘Dy the complaint that the relief demanded, and that such relief, or any part Ghereoi, consists in restraining the commission of any ‘ect, the commission of would produce injury to ig the litigation, it shall sppear that the defendant je doing, oF is about to do, Ht | i i tt fe i k t I i é HY ey 4 ee? j may also have & temporary injunction, ile, provided it is necessary to protect him from : (Corning vs. Troy Iron and Nail Factory, 6 Pr. Rep...) ‘The first question, therefore, to be disposed of er or & Standing in this Court as entities claimed in the complaint. The eges, and it is not denied, that he is a in the city of New York, and a corpora. . The meaning snd extent of this aver- are, that he contributes to the taxes raised in this ‘sad is @ member of the corporation thereof, and as is interested in the property. By being a he has contributed to the taxes already raised col therein, and is liable to be assessed and pay aliquot part, by way of taxation, to liquidate and dis- any additional burthens which may be imposed upon the taxpayers of said city. As a corporator, he is a owner of a property, real and | Bersonal, owned by corporation, a right to eard in any Bition to be made of it. The complaint sets eh act of the Legislature of this State, passed , 1867, entitled “an act to establish a police district, and to provide for the orn, thereof.” This act organizes the coun- of New York, Kings, Westchester and Richmond into be called ‘The Metropolitan Police District of New York,’’ and directs the appointment of five commissioners by the Governor and Senate, who, of the cities of New York and Brook Bgn cx cfite, are to form » board of police commissioners. board is authorized to appoint various officers to Preserving order and performing the duties them by the said act, viz., a general au- of police, and two deputy superinten- of police, and so many inspectors or » hot tO exceed forty; so many sergeants i e 8 g8 ' househoilers snd Parishioners within the borough, excepting Smith and Un derwood ; and after stating to the effect before mentioned, it alleged that the last mentioned payment was a misappl! catuon of the rates ; that the householders, being parishioners: within the borough of Stuilord, who were interested in the allotments, were very numerous, and that the piain- tiff’ were unable to muke all of them parties to the suit, It nr for an account of the rates received by the defendants during their res ships, and that the balance remaining in their hands Tpit be deareed to replace What they had tasapplie ast might be rey w misapplied an restrained from further : answer that the action for a libel arose out of acts done by Underwood, in obedience to orders made by the house- holders present at certain meetings; and that the costs of the action also had been paid out of the rates, in obedience to orders made in like manner, and had been allowed tute this suit that, if there had been any abuse, dressing it was on information injurious to the cotamon right; tho interested can neither excuse the all other parties of their remedy by suit. General may file na. information ee {ke is, tn reapect of the public nature t, 0 proceed- ing must be by the Attorney General, when ail i interested are parties to the abuse; but m that ia not the case I am not aware of any princi or suthority which makes it neceesary” he should be before the Court. ‘The other case referred to is that of Gray vs. lin, 2 Sim. & Stew., 207; and sustains the same principles. Thls doctrine was again’ reviewed in this Court in Mi vs. Sharpe, 16 Barb., 193, in which this Court again beld amount, hav- ze a vs. Pearsall, 16 point, Roosevelt vs. Varnum, 12 How, Pr. as Ig be pny Court, that it will grant its ald to restrain by imposition of any tax or burthen on the tax on behalf of any corporator of said city, hat ‘corporate property thereof, on & similar showing an egal diversion oF a ation of the oor property. ‘The next question which presents 4, Fas cnntgtains show outiotons.

Some few years ago Fort Pierre was purchased of the American Fur Company as 4 military post, and six companies of infantry and four companies of cavalry were ordered there. The distance by the Missouri river from St. Louis to this point is about 1,400 miles, and &s tedious “road to tavel.’” This post has done much ser vice in keeping in check the warlike tribes of Sioux, Arickarees, Blackfeet, &e. Fort Kearney (or New Fort Kearney, as it is called, to distinguish tt from the original station of the same name on the Missouri river, where now is the thriving | called Nebraska City) is about 125 miles inland from here, upon the line of emigration to California, Salt Lake and Oregon, and far beyond the frontior settlements, surround. ed by the Pawnee lands, This post has done not only the settlers of Nebraska some considerable service by also keeping the wartike bands of Indians that roam the plains in check, but in prowcting the great ude of emigration across the Weetert plains. Fort Laramie is sul! beyond Fort Kearney some 260 miles, and alo upon the line of overland emigrants. Both the last forts are of essential service, uot only to the frontier settlements of Nebraska, but oe ticularly to the emigrants, in protecting them in their tedious journey acrows the plains, from the attacks from Indians, and ax temporary resting places.
