POLICE INTELLIGENCE, Tar Broapway THEATRE OUTRAGE.—The inveeti- gation in the cage of the Broadway theatre outrage, which was to have been resumed yesterday at the Essex Market Police Court, was med until to- day in consequence of the unavoidable absence of Sherif O’Brien’s counsel, Itis probable that a de- cision will be rendered to-day. HononaBLy Disc#aragep.—John Heckler, who ‘was arrested on the occasion of the celebration of the anniversary of Evacuation Day, on suspicion of being a pickpocket, ws upon a fall hearing of the case honorably discharged by Justice Dodge, theré not being the siightest cause for the action of the ofiicer who made the arrest. CAUGHT IN THE Act.—Patrick Gorman was yes- terday caught by John Dayton in the act of leaving his store, No. 31 Chambers street, with eighteen coats, valued at $200, in his possesston. Gorman was forthwith secured and handed over to the tender mercies of a policeman, who arraigned his prisoner before Justice Dowling at the Tombs, The accused was held for trial. STaBBED IN THE BREAST.—Marcus Denziege, re- siding at No. 92 Bayard street, who peddles articles of wearing apparel! for a living, entered the business place of Patrick Mockler, rather a rough specimen ‘and well Known to the police, yesterday morning and attempted to dispose of certain of his articles to him, when they became involved in a quarrel, re- sul in Mockler stavbing his visitor in the breast with apenknife, The wound, fortunately, was not serious, but Mockler was at once apprehended and taken before Justice Dodge, at the Jefferson Market Police Court, who committed him to answer at the Court of General Sessions in default of $300 bail. DANGEROUS A8SAULTS.—Wam. Harrington, of No. 4 Greenwich street, beoume involved in an altercation yesterday with Peter Quigley, when a fight occurred, and Harrington received a very severe and danger- ous wound in the neck, mficted, as te alleged, by Quigley with a knife, the weapon dividing the facial artery and causing excessive hemorrhage. A physi- ciau’s certificate was shown to Justice Dowling when Quigley was arraigned before him stating that the complainant could not possibly appear in court. The prisoner was accordingly remanded for the present. Thomas O'Neil was also arrested yesterday and arraigned before Justice Dowling on a charge of having assauited James Lee, of No. 10 Jackson street, with a cart ruug, causing him severe imjuries. U'Neil was held to bail to answer the charge. A Brora Poviceman.—Among those on the re- turns of the Twentieth precinct, arrested Thursday night and sent to Jeifersou Market Police Court yes- terday morning to be disposed of by Justice Dodgo, was one George Culkin, aged twenty-oue, residing at No. 325 West Twenty-ninth street. His head was bandaged with a towel that presented a very bloody appearance, and his torn clothes denoted that he had been roughly dealt with by some one. Oficer McLaughlin, a burly specimen of a policeman, ac- companied the privoner and charged him with being disorderly in the public street. Justice Dodge, after hearing ‘this statement, asked Culkin in what man- ner bis head had been cut, when he explained that without the least provocation the officer had brutally askanited him with his club, torn his clothes and drag- ed him to the station Louse. The Court then quiety urned to the officer, and after asking him how long he had been upon the police force aud where sta- tioned, discharged the young maa with the injunc- tion that “in future it would be better for him to Keep ont of the clntehes of such oficers.”’ It seems: the assauit was merely Ue result of a braush pro- pensity to “amas? somebody, or uf it were Bot olicer McLaugiilin poorly vindicated hinsdif. THE CASE OF O°BALDWIN, THE PUGIL Judge Dowling’s Sentimenis. ‘The fact that @ warrant bad been issucd by Judge Dowling for the arrest of tlie champion pugiltst, O’Baldwin, was published in yesterday’s HERALD, the fact having become well known in certain circles. Yesterday morning two respectably dressed persons called apon the magistrate at the Tombs and inquired if @ Warrant was out for the arrest of their friend, Q’Baldwin, and when answered in the ailir- mative they requested that the Irish giant be allowed to attend the funeral of his deceased friend and patron, Felix Larkin, which took place yesterday, Judge Dowling said he bad no wish or desire to #hoek the feelings of the relatives or friends of the murdered man, and he had already instructed the officers having the Warrant not to seize the person of O'Baldwin did they not find him before the burial services had commenced. He had ordered them, however, to arrest O'Kaldwin as soon a8 decency would allow, and forth- with arraign lim before him, the com- mitting magistrate. The two friends of the imper- ilied pugilist demanded the cause of the proposed arrest, and they were informed by the magistrate that he considered the so-called champion to bea rufian, without courage and stability. He waa not considered a pugilist by'those wlo ought to know, only # “‘duffer” and # “macer” (dead beat). He had been the cause of considerable disturbance and tumult ever since he came to the country, and the man who had been murdered had lost his life through O’Kaldwin, the intimacy vetween them having led Larkin tato scenes of disorder and made hima crazy with bad liquor, The deceased had be- come the bondsman of O'Baldwin, and was - sible, while living, for bis conduct; now there was no check apon the fellow and Judge Dowling was determined that go far as jay in lis power he would keep him ae The two friends then retired, only half satisfied with the remarks of the magistrate, Judge Dowling also took occasion to comment upon the premature pubiication of the warrant being out for O'Baldwin, and be sald that ho was please: to learn that none of the reporters attached to the Tombs Court had bei the conficence reposed in them. He would me remark that she author of the report in the HeRaLD had becn gulity of a mis- demeanor, and was Hable to errest an ment. He was determined in the futare to prevent, if possible, the ends of justice boing defeated by pub- lication of contraband news, thongh he always conrted free inquiry in all cases. The proprietors ot newspapers did wish, he was sure, to have their employes break any trast confided in them, and he was sorry to find that in the present {natance there ‘was ho remedy, a8 the delinqueut bad not ovtained his information from the court. ALLEGED $17,000 EMBEZZLEMENT. It wil be remembered by readers of the Hexary that in October last an acconnt Was published of the sudden disappearance of Isidore Eisler, » young Hungarian of this city, who bad been entrusted by an tmporter, named 8. H, Germain, with rixty-five gold watches (siugle and double cases), 424 sliver watches, gold chains, revolvers, &c., amounting in the aggregate to about $17,000, and which vainable property the said Eisler had purposed taking West for the purpose of seiling it with profit for Germain and corresponding gem to himsclf It seems thet the good# were delivered to (he young mer- chant and h tted on his way rejoicing.

The latest case of this character—a shooting affray—which providentially did not result in mur- der, occurred yesterday morning, between two and three o'clock, in the lower part of Greene street, one of the most notorious quarters of the city.

Washington cannot properly enjoy the distinction of being tae exclusive section of the country where there are rumors and speculations of the probable composition of General Grant's Cabinet, and 16 would not be singular or without precedent if there Was quite as much, and possibly more, foundaygonm in fact for some of the current predictions here+ abouts than there is in the statements daily promul- gated by the industrious newsmongers at the na~ tional capital. The story that Henry Wilson, the Massachusetts Senator, is to be tendered the War portfolio ia unquestionably without foundation; and even if he highest authority for not adept. ticular 18, shall be again elevated to that position, and there area few prominent Congressmen in the East, some who have recently been in consultation with the President elect, who express their full confidence ta H appointment to the management of the War ce. should be, The Senator's wish in this par- without doubt, that Mr. stanton Itis probable, however, that the other Senator from Masmuchusctts, Charles Sumner, may be rel made State. There ts certainly no doubt but he {s willing to be, and some of the arzuments which have been and will continue to be brought to bear on General Grant to make such @ selection are the facts that he is well versed in dipiomatio matters, and that his long experience as chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations has given him = requisite fund of knowledge to discharge the pecu- har duties of the office which few, if any, other men possess, The name of J. Lothrop Motley, of the eminent historian, has been mentioned tn con- nection with this place; but if the statements of par ties who ought to know are to be relied upon the to- fluence of that gentleman will be exercised in behalf of the aspiring Senator. Mr. Sumner, as is well ane Be Poo’ ee ae 9 icone just closed, made only two speec Sne-of which was in a Voston ward ace and the other at @ ratification meetung guished himself somewhat by his remarkable advo- gus of areturn to ry july, & measure which, eceasary to add, has been regarded as simply ridiculous by many men who have made the subject of floance more a study thao Mr, Sumner ever has. Possibly the Senator will not further advocate a theory which met with such @ prompt and general disappro- vi all over the conntry, and it is likewise probabie that he will not in any way commit himseif on any of the current pol! ques- tions of the day until after the mattor Cabinet desire is detinitely settied.
