Ricketsonia my mother’s satchel ; mother afterwards told me the same thing, and that she had written those envelopes herself and placed them in the drawer in order to pisgue my father; she after- wards told me that Mr. Ricketson had written them himself; that they were cumbersome in his overcoat pocket; and he bad taken them from there and put them in her satchel; there were hankerchiefs prepared before we went toNewport in 1864; some of them were marked with the initials G. W. R.; they were afterwards sent to Mr. Ricketson; my mother also presented handkerchiefs to Mr. Thompéou, to whom I was at that time engaged to be married; mother also received a sapphire ring from Mr. Ricketson; in 1864, when we were making prepara- tions to go to Newport, mother told futher she would treat him like a nigger and a dog if he came in her presence or accompanied her; the evening after we | arrived a serenade took place at Newport (witness here roborated the deposition ot Mr. Thompson); on return- ing to the.hotel all the party came to my room; after a while Mr, Thompson stood up and said, “Come, gentle- men, it is late, and the ladies want’to go to bed;” they then left, and I went to bed; shortly after Mrs. Seabury came m and passed to her own room, adjoin- ing mine; some time after I, my mother aud Miss Lawton passed through to Mra, Seabury’s room; heard Miss Lawton say, “He is aGod damned fool ;” did not know at the Lime who was referred to; I did not feel well that night and did ot question them; mext morning my mo- ther told me that Thompson had used her terribly in taking her out of Mr. Ricketson’s room; she showed me her arm, which was marked where Mr. Thompson had taken hold of it; in the month of Fobruary, 1563, while my father was in Washington, 1 arrived home from echoo! suddenly ; I found mother and the children home; I was sitting in the library when a knock came to the door ; it was a snowy evening; I heard steps on the veran- da; I felt frightened; mother went to open the door and asked who there; a voice answered, “One of Gid’s’’; mother then opened the goor and a gentleman came in; this gentleman remained all night; he occupied the blue NEW YORK HER room; I went to my own room, but did not undress, Mr. Halsey (for Mrs. Harris) here argued that the op- posite side bad no right whatever to introduce 1@8, who were not named in the specifications or bill of alariey The name of the gentleman here alluded to not transpired, Mr. Lippitt contended that they had a perfect right to do go, in consequence of the fact that the person had been ulluded to in the diary of Mrs. Harris. Judge Pheips raled in favor of the petitioner, if counsel could produce such allusion in the diary. The examination was then procecded with—Mother staying sp long I went out to see what was detaining Jooked ‘Tnto:the blue room and saw the gentleman sitting on the bed, with his coat off; mother stood oppo- site him, io her night clothes, holding a candle; she was conversing with the gentleman; I turned back to my room, and. mother soon followed. ‘The court was -here adjourned until nine o'clock to- morrow. morning.

SUPREME COURT. Before Judge Barnard. ‘The Lorking-King case, which it was confidently be- lieved bad boon finally settled by the decision of Judge Barnard, and his order directing the drafts to be trans- ferred ¢o the rightful owner, suddenly reappeared yester- day‘on the legal stage #m a new and somewhat unexpected form. The cause of this revivification, it seems, is the alleged fact that Mr. Frederick I. King, the respondent in ‘tke former proceeding, bas disappeared from his accus- ‘tomed haunts and has kept his whereabouts so strictly ‘secret that it was found impossible to serve upon him the order of the Covert, as by Jaw required. Without this ser- vice and a formal surrender executed by King, the bank in which the drafts were deposited refused to give up possession of the bills of exchange. Besides this peculiar diMficulty, another one was added. Mr. King, not satisfied with bis discomfiture in the Supreme Court, instituted three suits in the Superior Court against Simon de Visser & Co., Messrs. Grinnell, Minturn & Co., and Moses Taylor & Co., as acceptors of the three bills of exchange in litigation. The complaints in these cases are as follows: — Superior Court, City of New York.—Frederick I. King wi. Simon de Visser, &c.—The. complaint of the above named plaintif by Gideon L, Walker, his attorney, re- spectfully shows to this court that J. M. Morales & Co., by their firm name of J. M. Morales. & Co., made their bill of exchange in writing, and directed the same to the suid Simon de Visser & Co. (the defendants), and thereby required the said Simon de Visser & Co. to pay to Miss Aune Lorking, of order, thirty-seven thousand dollars, eight days after sight thereof, payable at the City Bank, city of New York, which period oi time has now elapsed; and the said Simon de Visser & Co. did upon sight thereot duly accopt the said bil! of exchange in writing, and de- livered the sate to the said Anne Lorking, and’ the said Anne Lorking subsequently and before the same fell due, for a valuable consideration, duly endorsed and aclivered the same to th's plaintiff, and who is now the lawful owner and holder thereof; and the said defendants then promised the said plaintif' to pay him the amount of said ill according to the tenor and eflect thereof, and of the said acceptance and endorsements thereof; yet the said defendants, although often requested, have not paid the same to said plaintiff, but have refused and still do re- fuse so to do. Wherefore the plaintiff demands judg- ment against the suid defendants for thirty-seven thou- sand dollars, with interest from August 1, 1865. G. L. WALKER, Plantiff's Atuorney. Superior Court, City of New Fork.—Frederick 1. King vs. Grinnell, John W. Minturn and Robvrt B. Minturn. — The complaint of the above named plaintiff, by Gideon L. Walker, his attorney, Mspectfully shows to this court that J. C. Burnham & Co, made their bill of exchange in writing, and directed 1t to Messrs. Grin- nell, Minturn & Co., the said defendants, and thereby re- uired the said Grinnell, Minturn & Co. to pay to Mrs, lary Simpson, or order, thirteen thousand dollars at the National Bank of Commerce, eity of New York, three priate id thereof, which of time has now elapsed; and thosaid Grivnell, Minturn & Co, did, upon sight thereof of said bill of exchange, ip writing, &c., de- livered the same to the sald Mary Simpson, and the said Mary Sim , Subsequently thereto and before the same fell due, for a valuable consideration, duly endorsed and delivered the same to this plaintiff, and who is now tho lawful owner and holder thereof; and the eaid defend- ants then promised the said plaintiff to pay him the amount of said bill according to the tenor and effect thereof; yet the said defendants, although often re- quested, have not paid one dime or any part thereof to the plaintiff, but have refused and still do refuse so to do. Wherefore the plaintiff demands judgment against the said defendants for thirteen thousand dollars, with in- terest from August 1, 1864. WALKER, Plaintiff's Attorney. The complaint in the suit against Moses Taylor is al- most an-exact copy of the last, with the exception of names. At the hearing of the case this morning Mr. Fogarty, counsel for Miss Lorking, applied for a modification of the Judge's order so as to render service apo Mr. King unnecessary, The counsel also ent of the difficulty of discovering Mr. 's whereabouts, and contended that the conduct of both the latter and his counsel was in direct contempt of thé order issued by od = Barnard. . Walker, in reply, stat his only object was to protect Mrs. Calderon, w! lent seven thousand the drafts. Judge Barnard observed that he bad no doubt Mrs. Calderon had lent that amount of money, but it had nothing to do with this case, The only question was, to whom did the drafts belong, whether to Anne Lork: or Mr. King? The investigation already had establish the right of Anne Lorking to the drafts. As regards the loaning of the $7,000 to Mary Sim , the Judge stated that be bad learned all about that business, knew all the parties that had concocted the affair, knew the person that had personated Mary Simpson, and that that person would be produced at general term. Mr. Walker asked if Mary Simpson did not have the money, who had? Judge Barvard—I rah gee Mr. King has it. Mr. Walker—I swan I can’t believe it, Mr. Fogarty—I now give you (Walker) notice that I shall move for an order why an attachment should not igsue against you and Mr. King for not obeying the order 01 his Honor Judge Barnard, Mr. Walker—Vory well, sir. Mr. Fogarty here read the original order signed by Judge Barnard, who mace such corrections and modiii- jons a8 the circumstances suggested. By this ne | eal onder the draite are to be deposited in the custody of the United States Trast Company, subject to the will of the Court, and subject to a suit azainst one of the $13,000 drafis, Before leaving court Mr, Walker was understood to consent to withdraw two of the suits commenced in the Superior Court against the acceptors of the drafte. ‘The caso will doubtless come up again in the course of a few days.

The premises of Mr. Wallace, No..78 kighth avenue, were entered at a late hour on Wednesday night; but the barglars were surprised before securing any plunder, and one of them narrowly eseay with his life.

THE INVESTIGATION YESTERDAY. One of the Contractors and Recorder ‘Hoffman on the Stand. a. &e. &. ins . The interest taken in the invesligation by the Gover- nor of the action of the city officials in awarding the street clearing contract was evidently slackened to zero yesterday. Few persons were in the Chamber of the Board of Councilmen at the time appointed for the in- quiry to be resumed, and these were chiefly the hangers- on of rival contractors and a few of the City Hall offictals and politicians, The public was not there. The public did not feel interest. sufficient to send a single delegate. Boole and Brennan came in with mirthful faces that looked very provoking to John MeKeon, who had as long a visage as if his pocket had been picked of ten thou- sand dollars and he had just discovered it. Perhaps the coolness of the weather accounted for all. The proceedings were commenced by the reading of the certificate of incorporation of the Compost Com- pany, which was put in evidence, , John L, Brown was. then called as a witness: by Mr. Waterbury, sworn by the Governor, and testified that he was one of» the contractors for strect cleaning; that there is no one acknowledged ag a partner in the contract. with him except Knapp and Devoe; he has known Mr. Knapp since he was Street Commissioner; has known Mr. Devoe six: months; the association was formed by his hearing tl those parties were going in, and he thought ft would be well to go in with them; he heard nothing of the suc- coxs that Mr. Knapp would be likely to have if he was a bidder; he met Mr. Devoe in the strect, and spoke to him about the business; I know four of the Commissioners; I have’ known the Comp- trofler since he has been in oflice; did not know him before; I have known Mr. Boole since he was Alder- man; | have known the Mayor for a number of yoars, since he was Governor of the Almshouso; 1 put in no bid under the first advertisement; 1 did not show, previous to the meeting of the Commissioners, paper purporting to be a bid; I asked some persons to go secu- rity for me; I had not the security engaged; Messrs. Knapp and Devoe were aware before the 22d of May that I was not going to put ina bid with them before that time; he had spoken to the Mayor and Mr. Boole before the bids were opened; he know Mr. Kingsley, Mr. Cafferty and Guidet;1 had no conversation with them about the bids before they were opened; I saw these gentlemen on the day the bids were opened; I did not tell them that the bids were not opened the first day, be- cause I had no did in; if he said it, it was ina joking way; I have been a contractor thirteen or fourteen years; before that I was a scale maker; I have been in ditferent contracts; I dou’t know how tong Mr. Kuapp was Street Commissioner; I was in pore rship with Guidet about six years as 2 contractor; I never knew Mr. Knapp as a contractor, nor Mr. Devoe except as the cleaner of Broadway and other prominent streets; on the 22d of May I did not say that the bids would not be opened on that day to any of the rival contractors. Being cross-examined by Mr. Brady, Mr. Brown. testi- fled that he was contractor for a sewer that broaght him in contact with Mr, Breunan; I know of no roguery orar- rangement that is not perfectly fair, honest and upright about this contract; I know of no arrange: i Brennan nor any one else that is not fair and'upright, perfectly honest; I never solicited the vote of any of the Commissioners ; the charge of an arrangement with Mr. ennan is totally false, Being cross-examined by Mr. Boole’s counsel, ho tes- tified that Mr. Devoe has the right to ure patents for street cleaning; I know nothing of a suit against him for a patent right; there are two machines introduced by Mr. Devoo under the contract; his right to use them was no indneement to me to go in with him; I called on the Mayor before the bids were opened; was not acquainted with bim before; Mr. Boole told me he was opposed to contract work; I'neyer called on him to tamper with him; there was uo improper or dishonest understanding be- tween him and me; he always expressed himself opposed to cleaning the streets i contract. Re-direet—I cannot tell all the persons I may have spoken to about the contract before the bids were open- ed; I never spoke to the Commissioners about it; I never told any one I could fix the matter with the Comptrolier; the sewer I spoke of was commenced in the fall of 1853; T had the contract in my own name; I cannot how many contracts under the city I have had. Mr. J. R. Whiting was next called and examined by Mr. Waterbury—Hoe testified that he acted with Mr. Badger as President for the Compost Compeny in refer- ence to the contract; I handed the bid the Compost Company to the Mayor a few minutes before the hour of meeting on the 22d; I told the Mayor and some of the other Commissioners that the contract should be award- be bd the persons wae ee dothe most — for the jeast mone! , trreapostive ‘any party or other consid- eration; thié wan in the middle office of the Mayor; at the meeting in the private office of the stated that a man had called at his complained of the arbitrary power of the City Inspector over the eye the eee re was Rare oma! area sonable one © Board, the Commission proposed to return the bids and make them less vOnerons for the contractors; it was assented to by all pre- sent, including the bidders; the box was opened by the Mayor and the bids returned to the contractors. The witness then described the bids of the Com Com} , and related several ions made by him to the missioners in regard to the contemplated —— in the specifications and the reasons which in- duced him to make the suggestions. The witness then entered into an account of his experience in sanitary ee okt next gave a sketch of the Com- c formed, how they next gave hiv opimons as to how the street cleaning should be dono, the considera- tions and rules that ld govern the contractors and the Commission ; and the whole discourse was so irreie- vant to the question at iasne that the smile on many faces indicated a suspicion that the witness was inclined to become, if he was not ulready, facetious. The Re- corder said this Compost Company bave no right to take this contract; I answered, ‘I think they have;” said he, “Have you examined the question?” I replied that tho wers Of the Commission wore executive, not judicial ; ¢ said, “I don’t believe the Compost Company have the power to make the contract; Mr. Devlin made the same remark and went to look at the Revised Statutes; he said that if they doubted the power of the company ir. Badger, the president, would take it and give secu rity in $250,000; tbis was to the Mayor; he said he would state that to the Commission; | had not then read the certificate of incorporation of the company; he then got a copy of the ceriilicate to the Commission. A discussion here arose among the counsel to how the witness should proceed with giving his evi- dence. The witness then continued—That the con- versations he had with the Mayor were about the award of the coitract; he asked him if be bad made ti] communication in reference to the wil- lingness of the President to take the contract on the company’s terms, and he replied that he had; Mr. Auld, the Mayor's clerk, also told bim that the Mayor had stated the propositio® to the Commission, Being cross-examined by Mr, Brady, the witness testi- fied that he said to the Mayor, “You have given awa; $2,000,000 of the public property;” the Mayor said, “Why don’t you buy the contract?” T said, “What could it be had for?” he said, $50,000," I sald I was not in the habit of buying contracts—that it was very cheap at $150,000; he said, “Then why did you not buy it?” I had read ‘then the previous set of specifications, and had made suggestions to the Mayor in reference to them; I had *uggested that the City Inspector should not have so much power; I suggested that the contract should be under the control of the Commission instead of the Cit, Ipepector, The witness then testified to discussions an suggestions made to the Commission at a meeting at which he was ay) but no point of interest was brought to Nel it. Ho next repeated the iene oa al- ready given, of the conversations he bad with the mem- bers of the Commission on the subject of the ability of of the Compost Company to make a contract; that com- pany have used my name as a trustes without my con- vent or knowledge; I don’t know whether they have any capital, property or factory; I only know of them that Mr, Badger is their President, The witness testi- fled—1 don’t think I intimated to the City Inspector that he could absent himself from the meetings of the Commission if he did not approve of the contract; he knew of a awit by Mr. Smith against Mr. Devoe, for in- {ringing « patent for street sweeping machinery; the Recorder, I think, state make a contract to ¢ corder stated that, though the certificate of the company might authorize it, the law did not. ecordor Hoffman, being examined by Mr. Lawrence, stated that he received a notice trom the Mayor's office, notifying bim of his appointment on the Commission; he attended the first meeting, at which little of import- ance was done; at the second meeting a printed form of the specifications for x contract was read; he submitted the specifications subsequently to Mr. Craven among others; at the meeting of the Commission at the time the proposals were to be opened many suggestions were made relating to the power of the City Iuspector; that official ndinitted that he hed more power over tha con- tract than he thought proper; there were suggestions about bis power over the work of the contractors; I argued that the power ought to bolong to the City In. that somo one should have control; all ments to the specifications were made view to ro! the 0" of the nr; At the meeting of th fe returned NOPE: specifications; at th » new specitleations the award should 1 sent ut this mec pro- !on account of the changes next meoting the bids under opened, and it was ag medo ata future meeting; I ul wont there for the pur. ing Lasked Mr. Wh yy was organized; ho said t (or the Revised Statutes ¢ power to make ontract ting under what law could not tell m eertain if they had the T returned to the meeting tated that though their eertifleate gave them power to male a contract, the law did not, apd the motion to roject Uieir bid was carried; the motion to give the com tract to Helmbold, and anothtr to give it to the lowost i , Were lost, and then a motion waa to give it to Brown, Devoo and Knapp, th motion was adopted, th® City Inspector's nd my own being ehenged frem no to Aye to mako the vote unantmons; there wall nothing improper In the actions ot the Commission tyat J ean rocolloet or have any knowledge of; he also tortified that he did not revo lect Mr. Boole erying that he wanted to_ know how the of wonld vote before te worl! vote; Th jon oC ony proposition mado by Mr Whitng on pe f Mr, Badger, ond Lwon'd have tention such informal proposition; 1 any n the presence of the layer exe be jovert to be law and faet on the ulyj-ct ract; witness then deserihbed some of the discuss ons that the it would; in such h proposition es that alleged to have been made by ‘Mr, Badger was ever communicated to the Commission. Cross-examined—Several men spoke to me about per: sons who were prominent ag able to do the work; one man spoke tome about Mr. Kingsl man; Mr. Wate: called upon me, and spoke about Mr. Kingsley in court, but I paid very. little attention to him; my impression fs this was after the bids were opened and before the contract was awarded. ‘The counsel for the City luppector, Corporation Coun- sel and Comptroller offered thelr clients severally for ex- amination, and rested their case. ‘The Governor sent one of the officers of the court for the Mayor’s counsel, and Mr, Auld said that he had been sent for and would be in attendance soon. » A recess of flve minutes was then taken. After the recess Judge Allen stated that caynsel for his clients did not propose to trouble the Governor with apy arguments, but that no corraption bad been proven, and that the evidence established that the whole proceedings bes ign in party matice. ir. Emott wished to submit arguments in writing, The City Inspector's counsel would like to reply _to anything that might be said against his client. He moved that the charges against his client be dismissed. The Governor suid there were additional charges against Messrs. Devlin, Brennan and Boole. and as it would be impossible Tor him. to go on, or for the counsel to go to Albany, he asked if it would be satisfactory if he was to appoint a person to take the further testimony and submit it to him. Mr. Anthon said he appeared for the Mayor, A dis- cussion now arose among the lawyers as to the propriety of sending in all the evidence taken before the Senatorial Committee of last winter as a part of the proof against the officials. The Governor sfated thatthe gentleman we will desig- nato to take evidence will bo an eminent and honorable nan, and he (the Governor) will be governed by his de- cision on this subject of admitting evideuce taken at other investigations. Mr. Wmoit claimed that it was the duty of the Governor to act upon the motion of the City Inspector's counsel, and for that purpose it would be well if the gentlemen had any argument; to offer to put them forward. ‘The City Inspector's connsel said he wished to consult Dis clint before proceeding further. ‘The Governor then announeod the proceedings ad- Jjourned till eleven o'clock this morning. ‘The contractors are wel! satisued that the inyestigation has come off, as it sets them right before the public in a hat nothing cise would.
