8 ‘The Lottery Policy Question. DECISION OF THE RECORDER OVERRULING TIE MOTION TO QUASH INDICTMENTS AGAINST ALLBGED POLICY | VENDERS. | In the General Seenions yesterday morning Recorder Barnard de)ivered the following able and elaborate opinion — ‘9p motion of counsel for Jacob Boagers, overruling the mo- don to quaeh the indictments and ordering the defendant — to start his trial, This decision will effect a large num:er ‘of similar indictments. ‘The indictment in this case was found under the law passed in 1851, and amended in 1855, entitled “An act | more effectually to supprese gambling.” The motion quash the indictment was made before me on the last day of the February term of this court. I bad inteu te? wituio & few cays thereafter to have announced the dec'siox, Put Dave been delayed up to the time in consequence ‘of the Dumerous pressing duties incidental to tue ollie of 8 Jucge of this court. The motion was founder Wing groivds — 1. That the act of 1861, a8 amended, is inoperative, be- cause that portion of We punishment prescribed by it which consists of imprisonment in the pevitentiary cannot be carried out in ail the counties of this State, inasmuch as ‘there are not penitennaries 1a each of the counties. 2. That the offence charged, being @ misdemeanor, be- Jonge to the Juriediction of the Special Sessions, uiess the Goertot Generel Sessions acquires ib as pomted oat by the ac: of 1851 as amended & That the statute is null, because it does not define what is a louery poiicy. 4. Th ‘A ia@loumsat is bad, in that it alleges a single 5. Toat the indictment is bai for not showing what tod of a lowery was meant by the poiicy in question. 6. Either the ticket should plainly show vn its face its ‘Meaning, or t should be explainea by explanatory aver- tmept in the indictment. As to the first ground, an act may be inoperative though Bot void. ff tne Legislature hac 2irected the pumshment fo be by impriconment in sume place of coufvemeut which bad no existence in the Slate, tbe act might be in- operative until such place o! continement should be pro vided (unlers it were saved by vecvon 96 of the Revised Statntes, page §8, 4th soitiou), bat i. would cot be void Hs would be inoperative simply becaure no punishment could be inflicted, and the moment te cause of tue act being inoperative wae removeu vitality would be infuszea fmto it. Unaer such circumstances as these, it woule seem that the jaw may be operative in some counties and operative in others. The case a hand, however, ditters from tbe one above put, for the acte i question prescrine eponebment ip the discretion of the Court, which shail be by condsement in either the peaitentary or the Stare ob, apd by # ine not exceeding one thousand doliars There ie theretore u punishment which can be intisted throughout the State; viz, iurprisopment in tne State prisob and a fine. Such being the case, | think the law erther vou! nor inoperative It has been suggested that We prisoner Is entitied to have the benefit bf all the various grades of punishment which the act mentions, 60 that if bis offeuce is of ruch chara ter as to require lees than imprivonwent in the Stu prison, be might be seat to the penitentiary. The cegroe of the punishment to be inflicted reats, however, eatirely in the discretion of the Conrt: ana a case may Gover oocar In Which she Court Wili deem the proper pu ment ty be ttirpravpment in the pepitentiary, and at the tue when such case does atixe there may bea penitentiary or penitenturies provided, to wich cifepders may de sent from every county, as Shere is one Dow provided for the city aad county of ‘d York, If inaeea such a cage should occur before such gene- Fai provision was made, then it would become a question whether the prisoner couls uot, asa matter of right, de Mand & SUEPEUSCN OF JUGZmeDt lu Ali Counties oF at least in those counties with respect to which no penitentiary had in any manrer been provided. The suggestion could at all events be very properly urged, aud would doubtless have a controlling effect in inaueing the Court in such case fo suspend jucgment im thoe~ counties from which the offender Could cot be tent t a penitentiary, aud m ore counties from whib he cou'd be seat to # peni- fentury either to suspend judgment or greatly W reduce the term of imprisonment The coaclusioa wat i have arrived at is, that the point is not Weil taken. As to the fecond ground, whe question is wheier the offence charged 8 afeiony or a miscemeanor? If a felony, it ia concedec tha: tis cour: bas original jurisdiction.

M. ‘The tone of the stock market was altogether dif- ferent to-day. The tendency of prices w 8 upward, and in some of the leading speculative stocks there was a very active basineas, at the first board Erie Railroad 3d mortgage bonds advanced 1 per ceut; La Crosse land grand bonds 1; New York Central Railroad, 1; Erie, 4; Hudson River Railroad, 1; Har- Jem, 4; Reading, 13; Michigan Central Ruilroad, 14; Michigan Southern, common, {; do. preferred,}; Ga Jena aud Chicago, 1§; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 4; Chiengo and Rock Island, 3. Hudson River Rail- road Int mortgage bonds declined 1 per cent; Paua- ma, 4; Ilinois Central Railroad, 14. There were a gocd many cash buyers in the market, and prices left off better than at the opening. New York Cen- tra! Railroad and Erie Raitroad are undoubtedly fa- rubly affected in market value by toreign orders. It appears that New York Central Railroad shares were, at the latest dates quoted in London, at 82 a 84 per cent,and Erie Railroad shares at 26 a 28 per cent. This is equal to about 90 a 92 percent for New York Central shares, and about 28 a 30 for Erie Railroad shares. The latest advices received in London trom this market were to the loth February, and at that time quotations ruling for both of these stocks were considerably ander those now current. At that time Erie was selling at 28$ a 29 per cent cash, and New York Central at 86 a 86} per cent cash, Fvery -teamer from this side, from the mid- die of February up to Saturday last, a period of three weeks, has taken out accounts of a rising mar- ket. We have yet to receive the response from Eng- land and from the Ooutinent, and the probability is that the rapid restoration of values ia our most pro- minent securities will create a speculative movement in London and an active demand for American stocks generally. We have no doubt that the next steamer from Europe will bring quotations for our securities considerably above this market, and or- ders tor large amounts s0 liberally limited as to permit their immediate fulfilment. The recent dectine in our own market has enabled parties holding foreign orders limited to figures corresponding with the last quotations in London to fill them. This absorption must have a favorable effect upun prices here. Such operations permanently relieve holders on this side, as itis the withdrawal of so much stock from the market. ‘The eflect of this demand is likely to be seen sooner in New York Central, Erie, Michigan Central and Illinois Central, from t hat foreign capitalists bave already large | (sin them, aud prefer them to any others. tucks must continue to absorb large amounts | foreign capital. They all pay comparatively high rates of interest, and as for real bona fide security there is nothing better in the world. Any political distarbance in Europe must force an immense amount of foreign capital into our public securities; and, in any event, with peace or ; war, the investment in our stocks from abroad is likely to largely increase. There is no coun: try in the world where such high rates of interest are paid, or where the future is so free from disastrous contingencies. The small amount of State stocks daily sold in’ this market shows with what firmness the great bulk is held, and to what extent they have been withdrawn for permanent investment. At the second board the market was particularly bueyant and active. The advance of the morning was not only confirmed, but a further improvement wus realized. California State 7's advanced 4 per cent; Tennessee State 6's, 4; Canton Company, 3; Pacific Steamship Company, 3; New York Central, 1j; Erie, 1; Harlem, 4; Reading, 4; Michigan Cen- tral, 4; Galena and Chicago, 4; Panama, 1; Cleve- land and Toledo, #; Chicago and Rock Island, 24. Michigan Southern, preferred, declined 2 per cent; Illinois Central, j. New York Central closed this afternoon firm at 923 per ceut. After the board 93 per cent was bid for any quantity. After the board quotations for some stocks ruled higher, and the market generally closed with a decided upward tendency.

Freights.. Maus, The Minnesota Mining Company has declared a semi-annual dividend of six dollars per share, being twelve per cent on the capital stock, payable on the ist of April. We have repeatedly called attention to the utter worthlessness of bank reports, as exhibiting their conditien financially, and from occurrences that have fallen under the notice of our reporters we havé intimated to the stockholders of certain insti- tutions in this city that there were strong presump- tive grounds for believing that serious defaleations existed and bad been going on for years. We gave certain amounts that were supposed to be taken, and aa near as possible intimated the guilty par. ties. Every bank we theo alluded to has, so far, Leen found subsequently to have lost a large part of its apparent gains; not by any discovery by commit- tees of examination, but by the owning up of the de- linquent, or his absconding after he foand it impossi- ble to supply bis pres#ing daily wants by new abstrac- tions. We see by this what a perfect farce all exami- nation of assets in the possession of the officersof a bank is. Most of the discoveries have been made by the ccidental detection of one of the parties—as in the case of the American Exchange, the National, the Mechanics’ Banking Association, &c., &c.—a new one appearing at regular quarterly iutervals, In the case of the Union Bank, it is now announced that the main default cecurred pearly ten years ago, and was regularly, of course, counted in as assets and sur- plus undivided protits. The amonnt of the defalca- tion is unkuown, and as every effort has been made t keep it from the public eye, it 6 doubtfol if it ever will be known, as it would take weeks of examination and compa- rison by experts to approach ita amount, It is sur- mised that it may floally involve others, either out- side or inside, and that it will be found eventually to be abort balf a million. A few days ago we fur- nished the statement of the committee of the examiners of the Bank of Pennsylvania, showing that while it was not solvent or had earned a divi- dend since 1853, bad regularly declared semi-annual ones, amounting in that period to forty-seven per cent of ite capital. And the directors always be- lieved they were earned, and that the bank had a handsome surplus for contingencies, being hood- winked by adrvit managers and accountants. It re- quires no ordinary judgment to perceive that, as an investment, bank stocks are the most dan gerously tncertain property any one can put his money in. The chances of its total diaappear- ance at once, asin the case of the Zank of Penn- sylvania, and the Ohio Life and Trast, must always be taken How any bank in this city, exewpting the Chey whivh is owned aud consider: NEW YORK HERALD, FRINAY, MARCH 12. 1858. managed by a few, dares to declare dividends aiter such a total prostration of credit as we have recent- ly gone through, we are ata loss to perce ve. It may be policy, but in nine-tenths of the cases it will prove eventually to have been, like many preceding ones, paid out of the capital. We know that these views are entertained by the leading financiers of this city, and to it is to be attributed ina great measure the rapid rise in the better class of divi- dend paying railroad shares and first class bonds. Among the various means to bring about a return of a healthy condition of the various interests of the public which fall within the legitimate scope of legislative action, there are noae which would 50 cer- tainly and immediately prove beneficial to all classes ax the enactment of the law now before the State Senate admitting aliens to hold and convey real extute in the same way as citizens do. The law as it stands is a relic of barbarity and weakness. Nothing is to be feared from the influence of foreign capital invested in houses and lands; still less, if possible, than when it is invested in public stocks. The in- vestment of a large amount of alien capital in houses, lots or farms, is the shape of all others most ac- ceptable to us, because it is less liable to be suddenly withdrawn, and because it gives employmeut to every branch of industry. By changing the law as Beene, we sball fix and establish ds of the very best class of foreigners among us who are now obliged to carry their capital back to Europe with them or to than Ntw oe with it to States more hospitable $2000Tenn 6's °90,.. 89% 50 Huson River RR 3214 C00 do... 89 220 HarlemRR ..... 15% 1000 Missouri O'... 8374 8 200 ono 8,160... 10d 2000 Brook City 6's. 97 loo NY Cen RR 6’ 90 1000 N'Y Cop RR 7a wh3g 1&6 FRReon baw, 71 1000 E RR ddmbe,’83 & 1000 HRwRR img 96 6c00 Bar RR imtg.. 84 Te00 CRS po'mact ae 10 tarot vt Mil ae 10% gb00 I Cen Kis te 2 seecseet 1036 6000 Li free be. be | sone 50 Mich easel RR, 73 5000 do... 100 aS N aR 2636 i - 8000 LaOraciiit) g te 5 Market Bank .. 60 Common ’th Banik. 26 Amp Fxeb Bank.. 40 Bk of N america. 85 Del & Hua Ci Co.. yi Imp by si Bk. eens Pi Cary Imp’nt Co. 100 Penn Coal Co.b30 16 Vac Mail SS Co... 100 Bruns City L Co, 360 NY Cen RR,.b1® + DS #3, RR.. 6 Cley, Col & Cin RR 56 Cley & Tol RR... 30 80 New Jersey RR.. 1 280 Man Gas scrip... 11934 BOARD. 100 shs Harlem RR.. 14 500 13% 60 60 6400 Monspci ote} rie 60 2000 Gal&Thi 2dm ds 90 60 2000 Mil&Mie2¢ml0d Mich Cen RR. 13M Gal & Cai RR. ow do W380 109 Mi SoANTARK 810 2636 50 ao. b10 27 2 do . 26% 60 MISOANTa prefstk 51}, ao... 50 50 10655 966 a 48 0 48 4336 st S455 85 8 847, Offered. a Mi 80% N Ia pret 50 Mich So & N Ia.
