IMPROVEMENTS IN THE PaRK—TUM SKATING SHA- BON—REGULATIONS FOR THs GOVEENMBNT OF TUB SRATERS, BTV., BTC. ‘The past two months bave worked a wondrous chango in the appearance of the Park; several miles of roads have beem completed, and are daily filled with equestrians © carriages. Thousands of trees Lave been planted, wait- ing only the return of spring wo dusplay their diverse beau ties © the throngs that wil seek eujoy moat in this beatiful retrea:, The terrace bridge has progrossud 80 far a8 to give some general notion of what is to be the main archi tectural features of the Park. The iron foot bridge across the lake, an airy and graceful structure, is noarly duished. The main portion ef the force has been fer soveral weeks assembled at the skating pond, a lake of somo ‘wenty acres, surrounded by inviting aud beautiful shores, and destined both ia winter and somumer to aftord an innumerable diversity of charming features, This lake 18 60 arranged as to give a winter level aad a summer Jevel. When the pond is drawa down by the sluices afforded for that purpose, a haadaome brink wal! appears, with a walk of gravel five feet im width frum which to step upon the ice. The gate ts pow shut wo gather the waters upon whose glassy surface thousands of skaters and ekatresses are to disport, while the leaves and flowers have hidden themselves for A system of hydrants has beon ar- ranged all around the pond to facilitate the opera: tiva of flushing und readily removating the ice. A part of she pond adjacent to the Eighth avenue will be onclose1 or the exclusive use of ladies and those attending them, ‘This tadies’ pond will afford a place for those ladies who desire to learn the art of akating without being ubjected tw the gaze of tho crowd. Huls will be erected oa the shores of the pond, with convenient windows or chil dren to seo the skaters. Fhese huts will be warmed and furuisbed with seais, and will be so mad that they can be moved from the summer landscape and replaced tu the winter without damage.

They appear to have been well digested, and bear evidence of that thoughtfulness of the public grauticadoa that bas presided over all departinents of the park since its construction was commenced. SKATING REGULATIONS. Ball Signals. —1. In approachiog the Park, first look for the signal. A red ball at the bell tower, just south of the reservoir, When up atthe mast head, wil. be visible in ordinary weather at a considerabie distance from the Park, and by the use of a glass from most of the elevated parts of the city. When the bailis up it indicates “that the ice is in coudition for skating,”’ or for games, or is safe for those who chovge to go upou it. When the bail is down, it indicates that ‘the ice is not in good condition for skating,” or games, or that it is un- safe, or is occupied by laborers engaged im removing snow, cleaning or fushing with water w renew the sur- ce. 2. Om entering the Park, observe the notices posted atthe gates, staung the condition of the ice from time to ume; whether itis in desirabie condition to viditers, or | whether they are prohibited for the day from going on the pond or any part of it, on account of the cleaniag the ice, &c. By these meaus visiters will trequently save themselves the trouble of coming to the poud when it is ‘Dot im condition to afford them amusement; besides, if the laborers are left undisturbed at such times by tors, they wiil the more rapidly prepare the ice for use. 8.’ On reaching the pond, if the ball at tho bell tower ia down, visiters are not to go on the ice. Observe all special notices and regulations posted around the Pond. Visiters rill go on and off the ice by the regular walks and approaches prepared for them, and by none oteer, Fxcept in cuse of dauger. Persons wil be strictly pro- hibites going upon the pond except at the regular ap- P » Visiters will use the foot scrapers provided at the ap- Proaches, avd ayoid carryin mud or dirt on the ice. When notices of Danger’? are put up on the ice, they indicate that the ice is unsafe in that especial vicinity. When the United States flag at the central station on the pond is down, or when required by auy park keeper, all Persons on the ice should rapidly disperse to the nearest points of the whore, avoiding confusion aud getting into crowds. If one or more perseus have broken through the ice, it is directed a8 an imperative necessity that all spectators or companions, on giving the alarm, imme- diately withdraw to agafe distanoe, without attempts at Tescve, not only to insure the safety of porsons im tho water, but for their own.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE ABRALD. ‘Wasuyatoy, Dec. 12, 1959, I pray permission to correct a slight error into which I see, from your editorial of yesterday, upon “the suppression of the slave trade,” you have been led as to facts preced- ing and connected with the recent arrest in your city of Major & Egbert Farnham. The following are briefly the true circumstances of the case:— Barly in last spring Mr. Sedgwick, then United States District Attorney for New York, being in Savannah, the District Attorney for Georgia, and myself, who were to- gether representing the government in the active prose Cution of all partics connected with the piratical ex ition of the Wanderer, and with the Ticsipt oF pprenass’ tf her of sought a cone siltation with him as to the proper Polley to be pursued in reference to Farnbare e concluded unanimous! it wonld be wisost tohave him arrested and put opon his trial in New York, and Mr. Sedgwick was placed by us in possession of evidence am. ply suilcient for that purpose. Upon tho eve of the re. cent trials of persons with the same offence before the United States Circuit Court at Savannah, we requested Mr. Sedgwick to return to us the decumeatary evidence with which he had been furnished. He did so by letter, With a statement to tho effect that Farnham could not be found. Convineed of the fact that ho (Farnham) usually resided in New York, we deemed it our duty to set on foot Deing maay ab the rate of a atas & day as porsible, the proceedings which have Mnsoen his arrest.

After the trameacliv of some routiao busiaers yester- day morning, the 0 «rmac, Alderman Boouk, stated tat the special orders of the dey Would be then takea up.

Muvssrs. Coarles A May and George O. Genet, Esqrs., wore reiaia- ed as counsel by Mr. Barry, one of the late candidates for Alderman in the Secoad Aldermanio district, for the pur- pose of having the Sixth district of the Sixth ward tarowa out, on the ground that fraud had been committed. In the Sixth district of this ward, it is generally knowa, is the place where the “ Dead Rabbits” havo their neadquar- ters, and cousequently they can agsemble in stroug force freind the polls om elccuou day. Siatemouts, wore msde that meu had voted io tam district who were ut entitled to do 80; that tickets Lad been taken away from others, and a great mavy Koucked down whe had atlempted 0 vote for Mir. Barry. Several other reports were circ:ilated about this dist ict, but we Gad that uo arrests were made principled act on the part of certalu mou tu- terested tn the sum of bet, to save the losiug party from paying the sum agreed upon. Auother motive fur having this district thrown out, was that by tnat means Mr. Barry would receive the greatest number of votes, uni thereby defeat Alderman Bickfort, who, as the returns vow bers has unceiens Sues two haadred more vows thao bis opponent, Mr. Barry Alderman apaM@ opposed the resolution. Ho thought the Board wascompelent enough woinvestigate tae mauler iteelf, and examine the returus. Alderman StxvENs said tt was necessary that a commit- twe shoula be appointed, as there was evidence whict could ouly be taken by subpauaing witnesses. Alderman apaMa replied by saying that he did not think it right to take ali the teatimony that Is generally givea in such cases, a8 it was sometimes hard to believe it. Alderman Srevens saia that, in offering his resotution, he wished ouly w save time by having & committee ap pointed to mvrstigate the matter. Alderman Pscx wished them to go on with the regular @ ward to then take up t eeporh and when they came to Alderman Tuomer said he knew nothing of the circum stances of the case; nohing more than the mere circu lated report of facts. He said he was also in favor of waiting until the district was called, and thea to @ppoint & committee. He did not think it was of such im portance that it should take up the whole time of tov rd. Ald. Darragn said he would be willing to vote for the committee wheu a charge was made against any one io the Ward. The ayes and nays Were called and the resolution was Jost, six being in the affirmative and three in the negative. AD attompt was thun made to make it a special order for Thureday next, but without success. Alderman Bravusy moved a reconsideration of the subject. The ayes and nays were called—seven in the afficma- tive and two im the negative. Alderman Peck tacn moved that Alderman Darragh proceed to canvass the returns immediately. Alderman Stevsns said the parties interested were mot ready w make any protest then, and, moreover, there was a great number involved io the case, He was also sor- ry to soe that there were gentlemen there who wished to bring upth» mutter here, when he had shown that a committee would save time. Ald. Tromey wisbed to give time to the persons inte. rested 10 make @ protest, and wanted the matter laid over till Toursday Ald. Pack sait he would urge the matter on. There ‘was no reasou why it should’lay over. It was madea special oruer for the day, aad they would gain nothing by laying itover. He urged the necessity for Aid. Darragn wo proceed W canvass at once, as the case would consume Ume, and it was better to go om wi.b it at once. Aldermaa Tvomxy said that they could lay the mattor over, and lot other gentlemen go ou canvassing their dis- tricta, thereby causing vo lose of time. Alderman ADaMs wished to have the district come be- fore the Board ouce—the way @ final disposition could be made of it. Algerman SrxvENs rose and said he asked it as a per- scnal favor of the Board to lay the matter over. A vote was then taken whether they proceed to the caavars of the district or not, which ri im the af- firmatve. The Sergeant.at-Arms was ordered to proceed to the Mayor’e ollice and get the returns; but this being objected to, Alderman Darragh was requested to dothe same, wi request he accordingly complied with. Alderman StkvENe moved that the interested parties be allowed -o be beard by counsel. Alderman Puck objected to it, He said there was no need of it, It was @ matter that & mere boy could get through with. There was no more Deed of counsel than there was of a physician. Ifit re- quired the law to take hold of the matter, they must Dring the case before some court. Alderman Erapixy rose to a point of order. He said thutthey were pot to know anything was wrong uutil they opened the returns. They were not to prejudge the returns. ty that ‘gam advocated ver tt counsel be allowed to be heal jdatgd Alderman Tvomsy suid he did not think that counsel could throw apy light upon the subject; that if counsel got to work there they would never get throu, A vote was then taken to see it the imterested parties be allowed to be beard by counsel or not. The vote st20d five against #1x, and consequently the motion was lost. At this stage of the proceedings several motions were made, anc it was finally agreed on motion that Aldermaa Darragh should proceed to canvass. During the reading of the returns almost every distric hac some dozen or more of votes marked scattering, or Diank. This ied o along debate. Alserman Braby said he knew nothing of the matter; it wasof no interest to bim or his party; he knew there Was a great deal of feeling mauitested in regard to case duiside, apd he only wished to know who all the votes were cast for, He said that the returns migbt have any number of scattering votes, ‘ané the Board would allow them to any candiaate, even though tbese scattering votes were only spelt wroug. He Said be eboul: like to know who the vows marked ‘“‘acat- tering” and “blank”? bad been cast for, and wished thom to proces in # jegal manner. Alderman Apams moved that the canvassers appear before Alderman Darragh and state who the scattering Votes were for under oath. Ald Tuomey and Starr then gave their views om the aubject, when a long dispute arose between Ald. Starr and the Chairman, Aid. Boole, It was finally agreed that the returns should be sent back to the several districts, when found incorrect. The rewrns were read, and short debates arose on al- most every thing that could be taken up. There were a great number of clerical errors found in the returne, but nothing more. The whole matter appears to have been nojhing more than ap attempt to get the matter before a commit- tee, for the purpose of saying the sum of money bet by “the politica: gentlemen”? and electing to the office of Al- derman Mr. Barry over Ald. Bickford. During the whole day the lobby of the chambar was thronged with a ‘Dead Rabbit’? crowd, and the Sergeaut- @t-Aims hud to be called on several umes w preserve order, : The Board then went on with the noxt district, but ad- jourued in a short ume afterwards.

At ono store be purchased three shillings worth of confection: ery from Miss Genter, the witness, for which he gave in payment a counterfeit $5 bill, recoiving tho balance im good movey. He then passed up Broadway and pur- chased 8 cravat for six shillings, giving ia exchange aa- other bogus bill. The jury convicted Heneman of for- gery in the fourth degree, and the Court sentenced him to two years’ imprisonment in the Sate prison. A DRUNKEN ROW. The next charge disposed of was an indictment for as- sauilt and battery, found against Joha Healy aad Michael Hoey, Frank McCanvon, complainant, having Sworn that they assaulted him on the 10th of October. The Re- corder bad all the parties brought before him, and they were sufficient to People & colony—husbands and wives, friends and foes, all were engaged ia a drunken Draw). McCapnoa assaulted Mrs. y, Whereupon young Hoey stabbea bim. inflicting two or three slight wounds. Haley was rent to Blackwell's Islaud for thirty days, and Hovy for fifteen days to the same institution. ¢ com- plainant, McCaonon, having absented himself from court, ‘was sent to the City Prison for threo days. RECEIVING STOLEN GOODS. Jobn Weyman was placed on tral charged with re- cviving silk yaiued at $100, which was stolon from a stere in Columbia street, on the 30th of Uctober; but the evi- dence for the prosecution was not direct, and the jury ac- quitted the accused.

He charged Brown with overturning a barrel of apples, to which he luid claim. The appies wore Fyilled on the sitewalk, and, a8 this is a free country, the juveniles helped themselves at Mr. Abrams’ expease Brown was ordered to pay $2to Abrams for giving tho boys a treat, and Mr. A. left the court rather roluctantly. Hin Honor properly observed that such a trifling case thould not have bee b: ought into the General Sessions. A CURIOUS CASE OF LARCRNY. James Fitzgerald alias Fisher, who was indicted for at tempting to steal a horse and wagon, worth $1,500,owued by Jobu M. Pinckney, 248 West Thirty-second’ street, on the 22d of September, pleaded guilty to the charge, and on motion of the prosecuting officer juigment was sus- pended. It appears that Fitzgerald was in the habit of getting drank, and when intoxicated took his employer's horse, drove at a furious rate, and when be had gratified us equestrian taste leftthe animal at a livery stable other then the proper one, always, strange to say, giving the addrees of bisemployer. The Recorder, in order to stop this nuisance, had Fitggerald indicted, and, as he is table to be sentenced at any time, it is not probable that the offence will be repeates, A BEA CAPTAIN ACQUITTED OF A CHARGE OF FORGERY, Edwin Osborn, a sea captain, was placed on trial charged with forgery in the second degree in passiug a counter- feit bi on the Liberty Bauk of Rhode |Isiand; but as be had only one bill tn his possession, and as the previous good character of the aocused bad been'clearly proven, the jury acqui:ted him without leaving their seats. Sophia Price wos charged with grand larceuy in steal- ing on the 6th of November $38 worth of clothing, the property of Elizabeth, Willetts, 116 Walker street. The Jury failing to agree upon a verdict, they were discharged, ‘and 80 Was Miss Price. A NOIED SHOPLIFTER SENT TO THE STATE PRISON. Frances Stanley, alias Mary Graham, a noted shoplifter, pleaded guilty to grand larceny, having stolen on tte 29n of November, $103 worth of silk, of different colors, from the store of Thomas & Charles Leboutillier, in Caaai street. She was jolntly charged with Sarab Stéwart, who was discharged on her own recognizance, the evidence against her being very slight. Miss Stanley was convicted 1D September of a similar charge, having stolen pieces of tilk from the eetablishment of Francis B. Baldwin, at which time ebe was dealt withevory lemiently, being fined $25, on the promise of future good behavior. ' Ag she vio \ated the confidence reposed in her, the Reco, der passed a severe sentence, which was imprisonment in the State prison for four yoars and six months. BURGLARY IN THE FIRST DRGRER. James Gallagher and Michael Sullivan, youths, indicted for tbe high crime of burglary in the drst degree, pleaded guilty to the third grade of that offence. On the night of the 24th of Setember they entered the dwelling house of Mrs. Margaret Waters, 106 Bayard street, and stole cloth. ing and other property valued at $23. They were each sent to the State prison for three years and eight months. The colloquy between the Recorder and these prisoners war exceedingly amusing. When they were informed that if convicted of the charge in the indictmont thoy would be sent to the State prison for ten yeara, they mado & proposition to the Court, which was that they would plead guilty “ to attempt at burglary in the third degree,” a very nlee di }, Bho their familiarity with the various grades of the crime of burglary. The Recorder intimated that a compromise might be effected, and sug- geeted the propriety of advancing a step higher. “Wel fi then, suppose we say “burglary in the third degree,’ ” promptly rejoined the felons. \d,’’ said the Court. a oe very ey ede Oe comfort for the next four years propounding inquiry as to whether they weuld prefer imprisonment in the peniten- tinry for five years or go to the State prison for four years, and they readil: & take up their residence at Sing, to which fhathation they were sent. me A BURGLARIOUS ATTEMPT.
