UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT—IN ADMIRALTY. Decision—Important to Shippers and Masters of Vesscle. Before Jndge Blatchford. Jacob Wolf ang Alexander Wolf vs. The Bark Otvers, her Boats, éc.—'This is a libel to recover the sum of $489, ag the value of the wine contained in a cask shipped on the bark Olbers, at Rollescaur, on the 3d of November, 16065, by ©. Hemmami & Co. consigned to the libellants at New York. The ship- ment was made under a bill of lading signed by the Master of the vessel. The bill of 'ading covered twenty-six casks in all. It contained a statement thas the property was shipped in “good order and well conditioned,” and contracted for the delivery of it “in ke good order and well con- ditioned,” all and every danger and acci- Genwi of the sea and navigation, of whatsoever na- ture or kind, excepted. Upon the face of the bill of lading (which was @ printed blank in English; filled up with written words) the following words were sé} tely impressed by a stamp:—‘‘Not ac- eountable for leakage, breakage, rust or rep ac a ‘The libel all that the master failed to deliver to the hbellants the wine in one of the casks, although ‘no danger or accident of the seas or navigation pre- vailed, and that through the negligence of those in charge of the vesse!—while the wine in such cask was in the keeping of the vessel and her master—a hole was plerced in the head of the cask, near the chimb thereof, with an instrument unknown to the libel- Junta, and all of the wine was taken out of the cask, and no part of it was ever delivered to the libe:- Jants, ‘rhe answer admits-that the cask was delivered to the master of the vessel in apparently good order as to ite external condition, and sets up that, by the bill of lading, the vessel was not to be accountable for any loss arising from I @, breakage, rust or cor- ruption; that the cask was deitvered to the lbettants at New York, to all externa! appearance, in the same condition in which it was received by the vessel; that any loas or abstraction ofits contents which oc- curred happened before it came on board of the ves- se) or after its delivery thereirom; that during the voyage the vessel met with great storms; that If the contents of the cask were lost tue loss was capsed by the perils of the seq and by. asOn of the cask being defective and imperfect and not suiticiently strong to withstand the voyage, and that by usage and custom in regard to such worchanaise the vessel is not \ accountable for leak- age uuder such ¢lrcumstances, [tis impossible not to remark the wholly and recklessly inconsistent elutemeuts im this answer, and which, moreover, are #worn to, Where 1a, first, a statement that the loss or abstraction of che contents of the cask, if any there were, Mid vot take piace on board of the yessel, and then 2 sta'ement that the loss, if any, was caused b; Go reiust the sea and the mability of the cask O Withstand the voyage, and "cousequentiy during the voyage and while the cask was on board of the vessel. It is unnecessary ‘to say that both of these avermenta caunot be true The auswer not having been excepted to for these inconsistencies, this court must take that allegation which operates most strongly against the claimants to be the one really made—nemely, the allegation that the loss took place while the cask was on board Of the veasel and from an excusable cause, ‘The proof in this respect corresponds with the allega- hhons of both the libel and the answer and shows that the leakage of the wine from the cask took place while the cask and its contents were on board of the vessel. Such loss being shown the burden tails upon the claimants to stow that it was occa. sioued [2 one of the perils or cansey from which they were exempted by the bil of lading or by the gene rules of law (Clarke ve. Barnwell, 12 Howard, 272, 280.) There is no satifactory evidence that the loss of the wine waa oveasioned by an} r or accident of the seas or of navigation. e only other exception in the bili of lading on which the claimants can rely to hoid the vessel fronn beg agpenn ig the provision that the vessel shall not be accountable for leakage. In this connection the answer avers that the cask was defective aud imperfect. The averment on the pill of lading that the p was ‘in good order and well conditioned,” so far a8 it is applicable to the cask, extends ouly to the apparent external condl- tion of the cask, excluding any implication as to its mtrinsic soundness and suMfciency. (Clarke va. Barnwell, & Biatehiord, C. C, 621.) The claimants are at liberty, noiwith- standing the bill of lading, to show the defectiveness of the cask. It is shown by the evidence that the cask Was in apparentiy goou order wien it was put on board and did not then leak, (Reference was then made in the decision to the emptiness of the cask when bulk was broken, and to the apparent cane of lenkage—a hole in one ot the heads of the cask, Which hoie, it would appear, had been made by the working out of a ping which had been in- rerted Into what was originally a hole made by worn in the Wood of the cask.) This plagged hol wasae tatent defect in the cask. As the evidence leads to tue ivferenve that the lows of the wine was caused by this defect im’ the cask, and that sach defect existed before the cask Was put on board, avd as, according Ww the genera! rules of law, a loss by such defect affords an excnee for the hon-pertormance of the contract the burden is thrown on the libellants to show that the leakage and loss ber still have been avoided by the exercise of reasonable skill, diligence and attention on the part of the corrier, It was, therefore, open to the libellants to sow improper stowage of the cask, sulliclent to cause the development of the defect, or to show that the ordinary working of the ship and cargo as an incident to navigation would not have caused the breaking out of ine ping. (Clark vs. Bar- nar, 12 Howard, 280, 285, 284.) Thia they have not shown, and the Itbel must, thevejore, be disiniascd with costa. Charles Goepp for tho Libellanta; James K. 11 for ciaimants.

The People, &e., vs, Willian MeCutcieon.—The prisover, MeCutcheon, was indicted for murder in the first degree, for having In January last taken the life of a jad named James Shandley, by stabbing him with a penknife, at a brewery in ‘Third avenue, near Twenty-ninth street. Upon the opening of this court yesterday morning he filed a plea of guilty of murder in the cecoaa degree, which was accepted, and be was then arraigned for sentence, on,motion of Dis- trict Attorney Garvin. His counsel, W. 8. Yard, moved for @ postpone- ment of sentence by the Court, and urged that there ‘tas DO urgent necessity for judgment being passed against bis client at this time. Judge Barnard overruled the application, and in pronouncing judgment said he could see no neces- ity for granting any postponement of this sentence. * In conjunction with the District Attorney aud Mayor Hall Court had examined the evidence in the case, and its own opinion was that it was a case of murder; but (hat a jury would not be able to find a verdict agains. McCutcheon for a higher crime than murder in the second degree. In this opinion the District Attorney and Mayor Fall comcided. There might have been a want of premeditated intent on the part of the prisoner. That was the only reason why the District Attorney accepted piea of guilty of murder in the second degree, ‘Without any reason the prisoner had asked the deceased to “treat,” and Shandley told him he bad no money. Prisoner tien stabbed and killed him, and therefore the Court had now to impose sentence, but in doing so desired to say that the present state of feeling of society aud the commanity had not the slightest influence on the judgment to be pronounced. The Court was placed here solely to do his duty as a public oMogr, which he had uever yet in any instance failed to Uo when prisoners had been brought before him.

COURT OF SPECIAL SESSIONS. A Bankrupt Beat—Ladies of MasclemSevere Sentences. Before Justice Kelly. There were thirty-five cases on the calender of this court yesterday morning, but few were of sufiicient smterest to warrant a detaliea report. Jtis worthy of remark that if some benevolent individual would ook after the interests of poor, unfriended prisoners in the Court of Special Sessions with half the zeal dis- Played by Mr. Bergh in defence of injared animals it would be a vast improvement on the present system. Poor undefended wretches are frequently sentenced and fined heavily by Justice Kelly wheu, perhaps, if they had the advocacy of a lawyer of any ability they would be set at liberty, Won't somebody get up # Society for the Prevention of Injustice to Pris- oners ¢ * A MIXED CASE, Morgan Sweeney, bookkeeper and collector for the firm of John J.

In answer to a mestion put by Justice DowHng Mr. Sweeney said, that the books of the firm did not show the receipt of severai Jarge suins he bad handed im; that the firm knew his honesty, and in his opinion with a view of hoodwinking their creditors they had brought this charge of embezzlement against hin. ‘The Court took this view of the case, and honor- ably acquitted the prisoner.
