The Evie LitigationThe Motions to Dissolve Anjuuctions, Before Judge Sutherland, Schell vs. Erie Rathoay Company, &c.; People vs, Drew; Work vs. Same.—Yesterday morning the ar- gument on the motions to dissvive the injunctions in the above sulis was continued before this court. Mr. Rapallo, for the plaintiffs, reviewed the action ‘taken by the defendants in the issue of the bonds on the 10th of February and the subsequent taking back by the defendants of the bonds in exchange for 000,000 of stock, which he claimed was a mere transaction to enable the igs oe to issue the stock. The testimony taken fore Judge Barnard indicated clearly also the intention of Mr. Drew to issue @ further large quunitty of bonds on the 8d of March, which he actually did, ‘Dut was served with an injunction before thelr cun- version, He then sought means to make an osten- sioly legal conversion of the bonds, as was evidenced by the vransactions of the 7th of March at Mr.Field’'s house, wien the sule to Mr. Ashley was made. ‘the ‘trausuction was entirely sham, intended to cover a Wholcsale uanufacwure of stock. In referring to the attempts made to legalize the stock by legislative enactment Mr. Kapallo said the Leyisiature at iret rejused, but seeing an opportunity ‘vy which they might partake of the fru:ts of the mammon oi ui hteousuess they afverwards passed ‘the biil. But the bill as amended and passed had not opposed in tue meme dir. Field controverted tuis statement, when Mr. Rapullo said he wouid like to see the man who could @uccess.uily controvert the assertion. Mv, Eaton sa.d that he laid no claim to excessive ‘physical boldness, but woud deny that statement, air. napallo pruceeded at some lenztn to argue that It was not the intention ot the bill a8 passed to inter- fore wm any of the pending lit! but merely to hold Mr. Drew to his bargain in buying up the '$7,000,0v0 of bonds, and require tiem to be used for the twprovement and construction purposes of the road. e other side had all through seemed to be defiant, and said, “We are too strong for tne jud:- ciary of the Stave; we have violated your injunctions ‘and will violate them as often as you iasue them. You had better stop issu injunctions aud dissolve thuse already issued.” had a.so argued that by capitalizing the stock the stockholders had been benefited, as they would otherwise have been coin- peiled to pay mteres* annually on the money; bat he ‘was prepared to demo.ish that fuir fabric. unin; ‘the cupita: stock to be $34,000,000, the number o' shares woud be were S Pen om $6,000,000 ‘Would amount to $350,000, or per share per an- poh tis Natta phat saved; dut this wi maauiacture of Bl 80 depreciated the siock in the hands of stockholders that it amounted to @ loss of eleven dollars on each and every share, ‘hus the hoder of one share of ums S.0ck by ihe saie of tae 9th of March lost as much as he could save in ten years, Atthe concit lon of Mr. Rapallo's argument the court udjourned uutil Friday morning.

Income Returns in the Eighth Collection Dis- trict. ‘This district 1s the richest in the United States. ‘Within its boundaries reside the great majority of the merchants and aristocrats of New York.

AS the mode employed was peculiarly ingenious and seemingly secret, it is advisable to make tt known for the beneflt of those who may have their pockets ap- proached by a party standing almost directly before them. The pickpocket, whose operations were ob- served, hud previously been pointed out as a sus- pected person and ponveanenth watched, Presently an opportunity presented. A lady sitting on the op- ponte side took out her wallet to pay her fare, and mmediateiy afterward pouNgbes it to the pocket on the right side of her dress, ‘hive it was displayed, the light fingered pussenger eyed it with covetous looks, and as soon as it was replaced, he moved forward and took his station in front of the lady, and a little to her right, By his right hand he held on to @ strap pendant fromthe Toof of the car; this gave him support, while at the same time it enabled him to lean downward and to- wards the leftof theludy. His leit hand was then passed into the lower left hand ket of his own Sack coat, and apparently thrust down into a ket which seemed to have a very remote bottom by the etforts made to reach it. wriggling motion was next observed; in a few moments the lower portio n of the lady’s pocket would have been reacied and cut through, the coveted prize seized by the thief. Fort for the lady (ami the thief) pulling of the dress caused a suinewhat prominent dis- of baimoral skirt, and a lady sittin, by the side of the intended victim interfered to readjust the un- ruly apparel, and thus the operatioas of the pick- pocket were fotled.

Tue RAILROADS OF THR UNITED STaTRS; Torin Htsrory aND Sratistics, &c. By Henry M. Flint. This is @ comprehensive and usefal book on the subject of which it treats. The facts relative to our railroads and raliroad system are known weil enough m @ general way, but here they stand out promi- nently and strike the mind with surprise, We all at once realize the magnitude and wonderful results of the railroad system, particularly the results which have followed the consolidation of several | lines of railroads in one corporation. The New York and Erie, the New York ral, the Pennsylvania, the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chi- cago, and the Chicago and Northwestern roads are all idustrations of the benefits of judicious consolida- tion. The surprising effects produced in developing the resources of the country by railroads are also no- ticed, which appear to the reader alinost as marvel- lous as visions of the supernatural. Itis but forty- three years ago since the first railroad for the con- veyance of passengers was established. This was a horse railroad, thirty-seven miles long, from Stock- ton to Darlington in England, and was a single track with sidings. The speed was ten miles an hour, Thirty-eight years ago the first roads on which locomotives and steam power were asel were established. These were the Liverpool and Manchester road in England and the first division of the Baltimore and Onto and 4 portion of the Charles- ton and Ge Toads in the United States. These with locomotive engines, were the first opened in the world, and all in the same year, 1830, At the present time there are in this country 38,000 miles in =. which have cost over 500,000,000, hen we add to these the rai is a ot mia, ae Reigate G many, UssiA,, ai India and other a Of. the worid-—act Tees, probably, tha Bios miles more—we see what wonderful progress has been nade in thirty years, But this is only the beginning Of the great things that will be accomplished tn tue future, particularly on this Continent. And what a revolution the and telegraphs are making im the condition, social and political life and inter. course of people everywhere | As this writer well Says, “All the vast pyramids, ali the towering tnonu- ments and mighty walls of the aucients, all the Spacious churches and proud cathedrals of the middie ages were but trivial works compared with the raiiroads that in a short period have aprung into existence, as if by the migity magic of one mind and. one will, throughout the civilized world.” General Hood was married yesterd i evening to Miss Anna Hennen, daughter of the lave Duncaa N, Hennen.
