In removing the pole, it fell so that it came in contact with a telegraph wire and knocked down tho telegraph pole, which struck the deceased and was the direct cause of her death. ‘The defendants denied tho allegations of the eom- Plant, avd endeavored to show that they were not cul- padi or mt, as the work waa being dove by the ardener, who was under the supervision of tho Super. jendent of Streets, but without authority of the latter offic: The court overruled this proposition, and charged the jury that though Keiliy was acting without special instructions, ithad been showo that bis orders ‘were general in their nature, empowering bim to assume ea ebarge of the Park aod obstructions found jn it, usual insiructions were given by the court in refe- Fence tothe rule of damages, and ‘was directed to return @ sealed For the plsintiff, Mr. Pray; the Corporation Counsel.

His Honor said that the importance of the case to the de'endants as well a3 to the government would have competled him to direct a jury to be empanelled tor the latter part of this month to try the case had they desired it; but be entirely agreed with the defence that the way was to have the case transferred to the Circuit in time to try it at the next term. The case would be transferred to the Circuit and would take its place upon tho calendar, But cougsel would have to conform to Judge Nelson’s hours, The case could not be taken up before the 6ih of November, the first day of the term, and it might be that Judge Nelson's attendance could be procured on that day.

The superior skill with which it is conducted, the comprehensive scale of its discussions, and the variety of topics upon which it treats aro alto- gether without precedent and border on tho marvellous, so completely does it reflect passing events of great and even little moment in their swift current down the stream of time, Now it ts some great political question of vital importance to the whole couatry, and again some all- absorbing Snancial problem of no less weight which de- mands and receives its criticising attention, Again, its restless pilots find time to look after so apparently trivial & matter as the latest Paris fashions; then it is some great local interest, such as real estate and building operations going on in our midst, or perhaps a waroing bint concerning the action of some plundering officials, which sometimes succeeds in frightening them off while im the very act, To-day it ably handies so difficult a subject as that great and world-historic phenomena, the Jewish nation, ats past, present and prospective condition, with as much @ase, nonchaiance aad brevity as it would an editorial ting at Poor Greeley and his white hat—a sul to be sure, ey | nothing in common with the current events of the day, but sull not beyond the reach of that great pus of the ave—the New York Henauv. It. is evi- dentiy the intention of the writer of that paper to do justice to the subjects of bis remarks and “to speak of them as they are.” Nothing extenuate, Nor aught set down in maitoe, Taking for granted, then, that the sense of the article under convid-ration is to be viewed in this light, a oum- ber of intelligent Jows—I think it 18 conceded there are intelligent Jewa—with whom I have conversed are grieved Lo see that what has probabiy been intevded by writer as flatiering eulogium may be from the ambiguous manner in which some of th» arguments are deiivered, into sarcastic modern oracle hath spoken; Dut there is a diversity of opinion as to {ts meaning. They respectiuliy submit that some of the expressious made use of and conclusions arrived at aro not war. ranted by actual facts, nor indeed by facts embodied in the paper itself, 1t is a fact—to quote your words—that “chey have been persecuted as no people have ever been persecuted for weil nigh two thousand years; and aga'n, “io almost all countries a homeless wanderer,’’ are destinies and circumstances not at ail favorable to ennobling of the mind. Nor are the facts of their Seen “driven from their own country home- jess and hated wuerever loa found themsoives, in subjected sometimes to olesaie butcher; com. peiled again and aga different quarters to repeat the exodus, plundered of ” been conducive to make them mteliect and in weaita,'* the gold, tue silyer and the precious stones—are ia hands, True to tue character which first revealed iiself prominently in Egypt, tuev never enter a country without making its , its sliver, its jewelry tacie own;" Ror du they ever leave it without carrying these with them, This, sir, is the unk! cut of which we complain, What ‘oiner alterpative, im those days had the Jow, ecourged as be was by the numerous persecutions so truthfully depicted above, and uated by bia exireme anxiety for independence—not tical indepeadence— for the wish for that hed long siace been crusbed out of Lim, and no longer exisied even in bis dreams, but bw unconquerabdle and tabereat love ot tadepondene from wan’, than to secure a few valuable baubles that could be convemenily carried about tue person aad might serve to screen bimsetf and fam ty from destitution during the many vicissitudes to which he was subjecied by meators? hia tor og hs uoprovected 4 seod Lo generous mother earth?

THE LATE GALE ON THE COAST. The schodaer Laura aterm Bsovoa Cor Bale ,» ‘Avauced from (OL) 10, 1867.—TRIPLE SHEET. JAPAN. CORRESPONDENCE OF THE HERALD. Political and Governmental Affairs Quict— The Attack on the Dutch Minister—The Custom of Wearing T Swords—Letter from the Tycoon to the King of Portugai— Merchandise for New York—Tie Social Cou- ditien at Nagasaki-Markets. Yououama, Japan, August 23, 1667. Since my last mothing of impportance has happened at this place, There have been rumors by the local press Matng the Tycoon bad been killed, war at Osaca, &c.; but, as far as is known in official circles there is no foundation for them, The empire is cow on & thorough Peace basis, the late disputes between the Tycoon and Princes baving been settied satisfactorily to all, The Dutch Minister, while sitting on Bis verandah at Yeddo, was shot at by a Japanese, the ball passing close to his bead. The peryetrator bas not boon arrested. On the 12th of August an attaché of the Prussian lega- tion, while on tho road to Yeddo, was stopped by a Ya- kaoin, The official (Mr, Schnell) immediately fired at him with bis rovolver and wounded bim seriously, The ‘Yakanin then ran intoa tea house close by, where he was secreted by his frienda Mr. Schnell proceeded on his way to the legation and immediately reported the affair to the Japanese authoritics, who have taken every ‘means to arrest the perpetrator of this attack. This is the first time in the history of Japan that a foreigner has used a tevolver effectually against these murderous Ya- kaning Ife more were sorved that way there need be no fear about travelling here; but as it is now a per. son runs @ risk io travelling without a guard (who very often rum away in case of danger) or a good revolver wae es change is go! take place h jh C ing to take pl ero —t! abolition of the tot ain Sa of carrying pore Every person in Japan who can boast of sow infamous deed is entitied to carry two swords—if we aro to judge from what can be seen in this place—who do not hesitate ®@ moment to draw it at any time upon a foreigner, The Ministers have been urging the change for some time, and if it takes place we will have fewer murders to re- cord in this country, The parties who have been carry- Img the swords aro a graceles:, good-for-nothing set of men who live on their squeezes from the poorest class of people, Even the street coolies who make about six cents per day havo to contribute to the support of this iho Yaka The Yakanins are neither ornamental nor useful, and the sooner they are dono away with the betier it will be for all parties concerned. The United States steamer Shenandoah bas arrived from the West Coast, where she bas been with General Van Valkenburgh looking for tho now port that is to be opened on the ist of January next; what conclusion he has arrived at ts not yet known. In a short time the foreign ministers are going to assem) dd until then notaing wilt be known as to what port is decided on. The Colorado will take F, da Roza, who goes to Portu- gal with a letter from the Tycoon to the king of that country ; she also takes a party of Japanese officials, who visit the United States for the purpose of inspecting the mavy yards, ships of war, &e, ‘The Colorado take for New York from Hong Kong 135 bales sitk, aod from Yoxohama for New York 62 bales silk, 636 packages tea and 10 boxes sundries, The United States steamspip Stenandoan is at Yoko- bama, The Hartford and Wyouiing bave gone to Tien- sin, The United States ship Supply is at Sbanghae. The news trom Nagasaki is of a rather murderous character, The Yakanins are still at their pastimes, having killed one American, two Englishmen and three Chinawep. All this has happened im the courss of three weeks. In ail the cases nothing could be ascertained as to who the murderers were, although the Japanese have made strict search for them, It is doubtfal if they ever turo up if tho foreign jnistere do not urge the matter with the aushorities in Jeddo, On the contrary, if a foreigner should knock down a native in the street the Japanese would {nsist on severe punishment to the offender, Why it so tho ministers can best tell. Another matter of importance has just beea brought wo light, the arroat of Japanese Christians to the num- ber of sixty-three, ‘These are the descendants of the early Christians, who have quietly and steadily increased until they number upwards of twenty thousaud, How much further the arrests would have continued is not known, The Americau Minister came along in the Shenandoah aud protested against fur- ther arrests being made until be had seen the oflicials at Jeddo, In the meanwhile the French Minister bas gous down there with the French frigate Guerriere, and will tnvestigate the affair thoroughly and probably release tho prisonera, If the Japanoss persist in keeping them it will lead to trouble with the French, the Christians being under their protection, The American bark Anna Kimball has been seized for illegal trading with the Japauese, baving been in a Lar- bor not yet open to foreigners, ‘The harbor fy ull of steam and sailing vessels, all of which bope to find buyers, It will be rather difficult; the Japaueso have no money, therefore cannot buy unless on long credit—say four or five years, Such credits boing rather doubtial, owners bold om to their vessela, All bysiness is at a btandstill, Tite MARKETS, In mercantile news irom Yokohama there is very little of any importance. The impoverished condition of the Japanese is $0 great that (hey canoot purchase anything, and, from all ay i will take so.ne time for the market to Ke y condition for trade; but with the prospect now before us, the country now being at peace, there is a cuaucs of a lively trade coming up for foreign mauufactures, Gray sbirtiugs and cotton yarn aro in good demaud, seliiag freely at good prices.
