TOMBS POLICE COURT. ‘The Allexed Robbery of Bonds from Dan- can, Sherman & Co.-Commitment of Louis A. Colvin. Pefore Justice Dowling. The oxamiaaiion of Louis A. Cotvin, charged with the abstraction of bonds and securities from the firm of Dunean, sherman & Co, was resamed vesterday at the Tombe Police Court, vefore Justice Dowling. MOTION TO DISMIGS THE COMPLAINT. Mr. Fdwin James, counsel for the defendant, moved to dismiss the complaint, and made an able argument in support, He recapitulated the evidence and showed from it that ‘he prosecutors in the case had, from the first, looked upon their clerk's delinquency in the Nght of a mere breach of trust. In that view they had proceeded first in assisting him in making good the loss, and in accepting from him the proposition to pay them $5,000 & year of the balance, which their apeculative en- doreement failed to make good, and second in proceed- ing et hime civilly and consigning him (o, prison, re he lingered for six monthe, ultimately obtain) Dis releare through the Insolvent act. The action no' instituted was dictated by personal epleen and spite ra the house of Duncan, Sherman & Co. They Mpon it at firet.asa breach of trust, and had so treated it, And having failed to inflict the desired amount of punishment on the defendant in the civil suit, they now come forward and charge him with a Intcony, —afier the expiration — of months from the comm! of the jleged offence. If they aro justified in taking this course now, then ep erman & Co. guilty, according to the Revised ites, of compounding a felony and conceal ing acrime. Their escape from this dilemma is in the truth that this wat only a breach of trnst, and the ab straction of the bonds in question, under the cireum- stances, Was not a felonions taking. This is proved by the acts of the complainants themselves, who, ing to Mackintosh’s evidence. furnished the defendant with other bonds and money to redeom the misring bonds.

THE FAT MELTING AND LIME BURNING ESTABLISHMENTS. Opinion by Judge McOunn.—He Declares Fat Melting a Great Nuisance and Refuses In- junctions Against the Board of Health— Lime Burnii be Tolerated. SUPERIOR COURT CHAMNERS. Before Judge McCunn. Ava, 3—Reynoldi ‘vt The Board of Health, Judge McCunn to-day rendored the following decision in this case:— ia was a motion to perpetuate an injunction where the Board of Health throaten to prevent the plaintiff! from burning shells into lime. ‘The Judge began by stating that the Board of Health was instituted for a great public purpose, and was in- vested with powers appropriate and adequate to the ac- complishment of that purpose. To stay the progress of pestilence, is an object of the highest possible interest to every member of the community; and it is the duty of the competent authorities to make commensurate provision against the invasion of this as of every other pnblic encmy. [n. time of war the miliary authorities are warranted in sacrificing life and property to the matutenance of the pub. lic security. In timo of peace other functionaries are empowered to exact equal sacrifices for the preserya- tion of the public welfare, whether against the spread of conflagration or the contagion of ‘cholera. To this end proporty is freoly destroyed; and the personal liberty of the citizen restricted, as by quarantine regulations, and it is the duty of the individual to surrendr his rigllts to the exigencies of the getfcral af ty. The Legislature, to whom the theory of our covernmont entrusta the guardianship of the public interests, nas determined ond declared that the presence of cholera in th: country presents an occasion for the exercise of ox- traordinary powors in res stance to the progress of the most formidable enemy of the race, Hence the enactment of the law under consideration and the establishment of the Bonrd whose authority we are now to define. My chron, is that the statute creating the Board of Health and investing it with certain anomalous powers is a logitimate and constitutional cxertion of the legisla- tive authority, and that it is the duty of the Court to facilitate the beneficial exercise of those powers. But it cannot be Sette that the aathority of the Board of Health 1s absolate and unquestionable, nor that its action is exempt from jadictal ertic'sm and control. An abso- tute power, without restri tions and without responsi- bility, is of tho very essence of tyranny. Our institu. tions tolerate no man above the law. The highest ma- eistrate m the Innd, nay Congress itself, is amenab! to the restraints of jndicial authority acting in interest and support of the constitution. And it is withia the jurisdiction and duty of the courts to protect private right against lawieas usurpation. If, then, a case be presented to the courts wherein, under pretence of promoting the public health, this Board wantonly ind uunnee cesarily tavades private ‘property, courts may, mid interpose to arrest the arbitrary threatened fact a simple despotism.

Hanging of 2 Chinnman. From the Alta California, Jaly 7.) Cuang Wang, the Chinaman who murdered bis mis- tross in China alley nearly a year since, suffered the oxtreme penalty of the law in the arca of the county Jal yeat afternoon. The circumstances of the crime for whi ho suffered were briefly as fullows:— Chung Wang, a common coolie eogaeed at Sacramento ona was! in, purchased, according to the custom of is 0 , 4 Chinese woman of the public clase, of 16f jmporter, prying $200 or $300 for her, She lived with him ¢gme time ‘at Sacramento ae a mistress, and then deserted bim, and fled to this city with an of the same race, for whom sho had conceived wn affection. He followed her heft, Met her at night in the alley alluded to, after a few hasty words, siabbed her so that she died a day or two after. He was arrested, tried, convicted, and sentenced to be hanged. The Governor him a respite, and no cireumsatances being shown to uatify @ pardon or commotation of sentence, the death Warrant was signed and placed in the hands of Sheriff Davis, to be executed July 6, 1866. There was the usual number of persons invited to witness the execution by the Sheriff, and at fiftesn minutes to one o'clock P. M. all was in readines#, The condemned for some months has been under the spiritual instruction of Fathers Ar- deo, Bracehi and G: ther, of the Catholic Chureh, Charies Carvalho, the Chinese Interpreter, giving his arsistance in translating the lessons fur bm. seemed to ne hoe | the teachings thus received, and de- clared himself fully convinced of the tratha of Christi- anity and desirous of being baptized into the Church, On the night jing the execution, he slept as quietly as usual, and he even partook of breakfast and dinner with as hearty relish as on amy other occasion in bis life, At twelve o'clock M. he was regularly baptized by the clergymen named, and received the sacrament.

It was noticed that he breathed heavily, but no other indications of excitement or fear were noticed. He held in hie hand a golden oru- cifx, which he from time to time raised to bre lips as the prayers were translated to Lim by Mr. Carvalho and repeated by him in a firm, distinct voice Deputy Sheriff Silverthorne read the record of the court and the death warrant in a clear yore while the prayers were being recited, and at the close the limbs of the cou demned were pinioned.

He has no license from any source. The defenda: with the exception of Kennedy and Caméron, are the Board of Excise, created under the law of April 14, 1866, The defendant Acton, Bosworth, Manierre and Bergen, are the Bi of Police. The defendants Kennedy ‘and Cameron are officers under the control of the Board of Police, and im no manner subject to the orders of the Board of F: ‘The plantiff alleges that the act of April 14, 1866, ia un- constituttonal and void; that the several defendants have combined to execute it, and will, by repeated arrosts and by closing his place of business, inflict upon bim irre- parable injury, To prevent this he asks the equitable interference of this Court by way of injunction. Tho de- fendants deny all the plaintiffs allegations as to irre. parable injury; they show that they have not soize! and - taken possession of plaintiffs place of Daarapes. Bot that, on the contrary, the defendant Kennedy, the execu- tive officer of: the police, has especially forbidden this to be done. The defendants, other than the Board of al Police, Kennedy and Cameron, deny that they have eny- thing to do with arresting the plaintiff or avy one, or with enforcing the act of April 14, 1866, in any way. ‘They deny all confederation with tue other defendants, The ailegations of unconstitutionality, deprivation of vights and property, &., &¢., are all denied by all. the defendants. On this state of facts we say:—The plain- tif has no standing in court to ask its equitable; inter- ference. Even if his position is correct, that the law of April 14, 1866, is unconstitutional and void, the law of 1857 remains in full force, and the piainti is in con- stant and flagrant violation of that act. Yet he asks this court to protect him in carrying on that identical business, In other words, this court is asked, because one ‘law is alleged to be unconstita- tonal, to protect the plaintyff in violating another act, the constitutionality of which has been afirmed he the Court It is to be remembered that a provision opinion of the court whconstitution necessarily vitiate the whole law, It may be uncer- stitutioual in part, and constitutional in where tho unconstitationality is riers framework of the law that the whole falls.
