Excepting these biemishes performance was worthy of the subject and occasion, The sad, monotonous aptiphonal dialogues of the male and female voices, carrying the mind back to the days of funerals within cloistered walls, and silent pro- cessions of cowled monks passing under gothic arches and along g!oomy corridors, were given with inexpressi- ble effect. The sharp, passionate sforzato, relieving at amtervals the wailing monotone—at first strong and im- petuous, as if the very soul would burst with its weight of woe, and then gradually subsiding, as if nature be- exbausted—tfound an echo in every heart.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. New York, Feb, 25, 1867. Several articles bave recently appeared in leading journals of this city and Brooklyn, relative to the Quar- antine bill now pending in the Assembly, containing statements and comments which show that the purposes and scope of the bill are very little understood, and that much misapprehension exists as to what is now being done towards constructing the permanent quarantime establishment, As these articles are calculated to create the impression that an attempt is being made to re-establish quarantine in dangerous proximity to some thickly populated local- ity, I ask a brief space in your columns, in behalf of the Commissioners of Quarantine, to state a few facts, which, I trust, will make the ‘Quarantine question” better ‘understood, and tend to allay public anxiety. At the session of 1863 the Legislature passed an act designed to secure the complete removal of quarantine from its former Jocation on Staten Island, and the con- struction of a new quarantine establishmont below the Narrows. The act defined specifically of what this estab- lishment should consist; and a reference to its terms will show that a place for the detention of passengers ‘who had been exposed to disease, but were not actually sick, constituted no part of it. Under the former sys- tem such passengers were landed and detained upon the quarantine grounds adjacent to the Marine Hospital, until, by proper lapse of time, it was ascertained that they might safely proceed to the city. But this act di- rected the sale of the whole of these grounds, including those belonging to the State at Soguin’s Point, and in effect prohibited their further use for quarantine pur- poses. The State was thus left without either a pl for the detention of such passengers while under qoar- antine, or a landing and boarding station. for use by the health office. except that which would be afforded by the use of the hospital ship. The latter diffioulty. how- ever, was removed at the following session, by amend- ing the act of 1863, so as to authorize a portion of the Marine Hospital grounds to be reserved trom sale and used tor a landing and boarding station until a perma-- nent quarantine station should be provided, To meet ail the other requirements of quarantine resort was then bad to the use of hulks and vessels, and their use has been continued from that time down to the prosent. But each season bas demonstrated that, however well adapted they may be for nse as hospitals, they cannot supply the necessity for having a plece on tand for the of ‘under quarantine who exposed to disease, where they may imme- y their arrival and — secure ‘that quiet 0 ‘comfort, to ‘disease.

Who is to Enforce the City Ordinances ?—A Lack of Jurisdiction Acknowledged by the Corporation. Before Justices Daly, Brady and Cardozo, Emil Reinhardt vs, the Mayor, dc.—In this case the de- fendants appeal from a judgment for $1,000, recovered by the plaintiff for accidental injuries sustained by him under the following circumstances:—On the 22d of Sep- tember, 1862, at about seven o’clock P. M., while passing along Thompson street, in this city, plaintiff stepped upon a grate in the sidewalk covering a circular opening communicating with a vault in front of and attached to the house, The grate turned up, and the plaintiff's leg slipped into the opening and was severely injured. The graie was made of three rings and two crossbars, end fastened by a chain, which, by a neglect of the family occupying the house, was unfastened at the time of the accident, There was no imperfection of the grate or cbain which was apparent to the passer by. Counsel for the appellant argued that the plaintif? sbould establish, through express notice to the defend- ant, the defective and insecure condition of the vault covering; and that its defective condition was of such manifest character that it was negligence for (ho officers of the Corporation not to have discovered it; and bee by had existed so long that notice could be presumed; that the testimony failed to establish that point. ‘Judge Brady said that he was of the opinion that the city authorities were bound by a sacred duty to protect the lives of citizens, apd that it was their duty to see that police officers ascertained that everything was sat gn their beats, Connsel continued by saving that neglect on the part. of the officers of the city could not be predicated upon the fact that fallea to discover the insecurity which caused the it, Because the had been 20 rene Tefused to report the him, and, ‘they ought not to be ‘a ble for any dere! ip iv or bochonace i entoreing Jadge Bredy_—The Court ts of the optuion tat the clty re. tn auch a condition ee ean ate eee: et ie eer ted hae! aa was one of old ana the testimony showed that it was defective. new now in use were covers which ee ki wget i he note ree that it was MOR, cil to adopt al the latest improvements f ro- tection of the lives of citizens, and that a ire to dg ‘80 was a proof of negligence on their part.

THE BURNETT FALSE PRETENCE CASE. Another Extensive Swindle of New York Merchants—$50,000 Worth of Goods Ob- tained—A Bogus Firm and Worthless Refer- ences. An examination in the case of George Burnett, whose arrest was published in the HERALD a few days ago, was commenced yesterday, before Justice Hogan, at the Tombs. Mr. Lewis Fitzgerald, of the firm of Mesers, Fenton, Fitzgerald & Tracy, of 38 Whitehall streot, is the complainant, In his affidavit, on which the warrant was issued, Mr. Fitzgerald sets forth that on the 18th of October Jast Burnett called at bis place of business and expressed a desire to purchase a quantity of butter, at the same time representing that he was responsible and amply able to pay for all goods that he bought; that he was ofthe firm of Alexander, Lewis & Co, doing business at 85 West strest; that his firm did a large Ddusiness in supplying Sonthern and Eastern markets. Mr. Fitzgerald, believin, the representations thus made, sold Burnett twelve kins of butter, for $544, which amount the acensed pro- mised to pay On presentation of the bill. Mr. Fitagerald delivered the goods, and subsequent to the sale and de- livery the comp!ainant called on Burnett to collect the amount, when the latter promised to send him a check at bis office at twelve o'clock. On the 20th of October, the check not coming according to agreement, Mr. Fitzgerald returned to the prisoner’s office, which he found closed, and there learned that he had absconded. The complainant therefore charges that all the repro- sentations made by the prisoner were false ana untrue, and so made for the purpose of cheating and defrazding. Mr. Fitzgerald was further examined yesterday, and corroborat'd the factr set forth in bh ‘iginal complaint. Charles D, Crawford, of No. 89 West sireet, deposed that about the 1st of August last ho hired the prisoner an office (second floor, back room), at No. 85 West street, until the following May, rent payable monthly in ad- vance; Burnett left the 1-t of November last; the wit- ness never saw any of the firm vf Alexander Lewis & Co, except the prisoner.

Contectixc 4 Boarp Bui—A Cranage or Lanceny.— John McNeil was arraigned yesterday at the Essex Market Police Court to answer to a charge of larceny preferred against him by Peter Reifferschudt, of No. 5834 Greenwich avenue, It appears from the statements of both parties that McNeil, who fs a car driver, and resides at the corner of avenue B and Twelfth street, provided Peter until recently with board and lodging, and had done so, McNeil says, for twelve consecutive weeks without receiving any payment from his guest Learning that Peter intended changing his placo of abode, and unwilling that the day of settle: it should be postponed beyond the occurrence of that event, he visited Peter in his room early on the morning of tho 24th inst., while Peter was still in that state of lan- guor following awakening which postpones all effort or exertion, and blandly inquired the time.
