| 4 STREET OBSTRUCTIONS. The Duty of the Street Conumissioner and His BuberdinatesTheir Want of Efttciercy--The Law--The Public Deprived of the Use of tise Streets—Obstructions and Encumbrances Ine pemerableWhere Are the Iuspectors It was a good remark of a European traveller in this country, years ago, that we Americans had a multitude of good laws, but failed to execute them, and hence suffered from maiadministration of public Affairs, He was quite right—that the people are plways alert to any evil whica manifests itself, and insist apon abating it by the adoption of some excel- Jent remedial law. But these laws are bat seldom exitorced; the men elected or appointed to enforce them often find it to their own interest to be blind to infractions, and while the law remains on the statute book the evil against which it was in- tended to guard continues, and even increases, and the people, finding their eiforts unavailing, ave very apt to relax. ‘These remarks are specta'ly applicable to the con- dition of the public streets of our city. The courts have again and again decided that, while the fee in the land over which a street is laid out remains in the owner of the land fronting on it, the use, the casement ig vested in the public for public purposes and can- not be diverted to private uses. This has beeu recog- mised and reiterated as sound law whenever some private individual or corporation, for private ends, Aniringed on the right of tue public to the full and ‘anobstructed use of all land dedicated for public streets or roads, This easement, with the act of dedication, becomes a vested right in the public, and No act of the original owner, or his representatives, can in any way invalidate or encroach upon it, The municipal authorities of the city of New York, representing in law the peopte of the city In their corporate capacity, have fully recognized the force and validity of this condition of the law. They have, as authorized by their charter, passed ordi- Bances from time to time in order ty msure to the people the full enjoyment of the streets free from ail nindrance and obstruction. Turning to the volume of “Ordinances of the Mayor, Aldermen and Commonalty of the City of New York, rev.sed in 1869,” and pubiisued in 1863 by the authority of the Common Council, with all the amendments thereto- fore adopted or made necessary by the action of the Legislature, itis found that the first section of article one of chapter four, on page ninety, defines the duties of the Street Department. One of them is stated to be “the removing encumbrances from sircets, roads, places, wharves, piers and siips.” Section pments-one of article two of the same chap- ter describes his duties in tis particuiar still more conesely by saying:— He (the Street Commissioner) may direct the removal of Any articie or thing whatsoever which may encumber or ob- Hruct a street or avenue, whart or pler in the eliy of New fork, under the penalties prescrived oy law. This, though it uses the words ‘may direct,” Jeaves him no discretionary power to be exercised or not as he wills, Decisions of the highest courts in the Jand are “as plenty as buckleberries in season’ determining finally ana forever that mm such connec- tion as that in wich the word may is used in the above sec.ion it means shall, is m:ndatory and peremptory in us effect and compels the officer Damed to do what he is enjoined whenever the occa- gion for doing it 18 properly presented. Tne ordinance already cited provides when and how the occasion should arise com ling him to exercise this power. In he very next seciion—section twenty-two—tne Street Commissioner is ‘authorized and directed to employ, under his direction, four competent per- Bons, al a salary of $1,500 each per annum, the auty 0: two Of Whom it shall be to report to the Street Commissioner any article or thing whatsoever which bray encumber or obstruct a street, avenue or place, Qnd, with his consent, to order the same to be re- moved, and 1! noi removed within twenty-four hours thereaiter to order the same tobe removed to tne yard, under the care ol the Deputy Superintendent Of Kepairs and Supplies, or other suitable place.” ‘The other two are to report in a similar way all ob- structions and encumbrances on wharves, piers and slips. The articles so removed may be redeemed by the owner by the payment of the expenses of re- hioval and a ceriaim small penalty, and on the first duys of February, May, August and November in each year all articles 0 removed and not redeemed suall be sold at auction for the benetit of the city treasury. in compliance with this ordinance there are ap- pointed “our competent (%) persous” as mspectors of encumberances, drawing to,ether $6,000 trom the poopie's treasury, and What 18 or has been hereto- ‘ore the result of tfleir labors or the beneilt to the competent” inspectors ever made a determined effort, with resoiuleness and perseverance, to do their duty, report gbstructions and order the.r removal ? There were isolated cases here and there, oe. to show at the end of the month that they ave done sometiing at least for their salary and ave not been die the whole time. It may be that the late raid against some fag posts on Broadway ‘was prompted by some such desire or Instinct; but where their services are mostly needed they are not had, the inspectors of encambrances 1a not found, or i found, blind; or if he sees aud fecis impelied to make a report the complacency of soaie other oMcial in the Street De- partment ivay be such as to save him tne necessity to act and remove the obstruction by forgetting to hand over the “consent” of the Street Comuns- siouer—a mere tectinical formality imposed upon him by the ordinance and which he cannot avoid, Chapter 24, page 272, of the sane volume of ordl- Dances, provides that ‘‘no person shall encumber er obstruct any street, wharf-pier in the city of New York with any aruele or thug whatsoever without Orst having obtained written permission from the Mayor or Stieet Commissioner.” And by a subse- quent ordinance, approved Feuruary 24, 1866, all wer to grant permits for showcases, stands Per the sale of newspapers, fruit, p90ks or otner merchandise, articie or thing whatso- soever, encumbering the streets or sid+walks, 4s vested in tue Mayor alone, but the application for such a permit must be spproved by the Alderman and Councilman of the district and with the consent ofthe persun occupying the premises in froat of which such stand is to be erected, Yet even when #0 approved and consented to the Mayor Is at liveriy to reject application. And chapter forty-five of the same volume of or- dinances furnishes us with the city law tu regard to buiidings as foliows:. SvoTtoN 19. The owner or builder of any bouse or ot! Dullding ‘which may be erecting or repairing in ihe city of New York shall cause al! the rubbish of every kind oc- Casioned thereby, which taay accumilate in the street, or pe Cast into the strect, and aii the ground, stone, sand and clay which may be dug from the cellar or yard, or area or vault nd cast into the ,to be removed out of the said street before sunset on each Way, under the penalty of five dollars ir rf. ‘BRO. 2.

On the Seventh avenue, just above Twenty-third street, for nearly two blocks some contractor has been excavating the street for a sewer, and, now that he is done with that west of the ratiroad track, he begins with spades and hoes to the east of it, ing Hd paving stones afd rock, without removin, ‘he rubbish, consisting of sand, dirt, pianks ‘and Joiste, huge boulders ana rocks, from the west half of the avenue, so that thts part ts tn 60 far obstructed that if two cars should meetin the gap there would not be room enough for a wheelbarrow to pass them on either side.

Presestation of Colors to the Seventh Regi- ment. The Seventh Regimens Armory was literally thronged last night with fair women and brave men. The occasion of the gathering was the cele- bration of the anniversary of the departure of the regiment to tue defence of the capital and the pre- sentation of a set of colors on behalf of the Common Council by Mayor Hall. THE PRESENTATION Wok place in the rezimental drill room. The regi- ment was brought skilfully into a hollow square, when the Mayor, advancing to the centre of the rooin, spoke as follows:— CoLorrL, EMMONS CLARK AND GENTLEMEN OF TUTS VETERAN REGIMENT—The muti tween you and the corporate between you and the nation, are com} 7 tbe occurs Fence that coliccts so brilliant an assembiace in this armory which {sat once your social club roam. ‘our school of discipline, As to the relations between you and” the government, efght to-night you began “your first march” to national capital in defence of the Union and constitution and acrosa the very threshold of those gates of clvil war which mad rebeliion then awung opea and kept open, That oceaston and its memories are still so vivid to us ail that this mere reference carries to every heart eulogy and honor. Many times afterwards you aided in protecting the national capital; as for half a century parts, at least, of your present organization have protected this great metropolis during times of tmpaistve, riotous rebellion. And your fame bas become national!’ Your relations to Wards the corporate authorities, whom I have the honor to- night to represent, have also been distingniehed, and are distinguishing. City records narrate many’ gifts of colora to your military organization or some of ita com- ponent parts, "Names as honored as those of De itt Clinton and Philip Hone have assoctated thom- solves with presentations of colors thit you now own, as {ts from an always grateful city, It may be your proud joast that as the sturdy oak which breasts all storms can count ite age by annular rings, so you may count your exist- ence for halt a century by the’ many stands of colors which ou possess. To this matropolis tte volunteer standing ary is & hecessity of security. Even its silent presence ia ever a a potent, weapon inthe hands of law and order, and is a perpetual menace to the tumultuously dis- posed. In now presenting these colors the cor. porate anthorities, do, therefore, simply but worthily symbol popular regard’ for representatives of that standing army. as thelr muntelpal boast and pride to give you always the best quarters and the best civic welcome in return for your volunteer services, Leas onerous is even large taxation for promoting the security that you ant kindred organizations fusriticingly present to the ety than taxation sometimes {mposed through the destructive voice of tumult. The corporate authorities trust soon to add to this gift of lags the gift of a site for a larger and more central armory. Receive, then, sir_and gentlemen, this stand of colors, representing thone’ of State, city and 'r ment, And, ladica ‘and gentlemen, nor State nor city shail ever tremble for thelr safety or honor while in this regl- mental keeping. In reply to Mayor Hail Colonel Clark said:— To possess the respect and confidence of the constituted authorities and to secure the favor and approbation of the public are objects worthy the ambition of citizen sol- thers. But objects so desirable are not won in a day, or without earvest, arduous labor. To this eud excellence in drill and discipline are absolute indispensable, as well as the utmost promptnt in responding'to the calls of the proper authority whenever the pence of the city or the property of its citizens are fn danger, or when foes, foreign or domestic, threaten the safety of the State or the nation. ‘Nor is this all that is necessary to the permanent popularity and prosperity of a miliary organization. It must confine itself strictly to ita legi- timate duties and abstain from all active interest in those questions upon which good citizens differ, and it must impartially support the chlef magistrates of the city and State, of whatsoever party or creed in the enforcement of laws ditly enacted and in the preservation of the public peace, Last, but not least, {ts members must possess, and on ail occasions exhibit, the attributes of the gentleman as joldier. ‘That the efforts of the oflicera and wenth regiment during the last half cen- and maintain a militaty organization of character have not been altogether in vain, I must infer from your complimentary allusions to {ts past services and to the place ft still holds in the hearts of the peop. and in the estimation of the city authorities. This elegant stand of colors, the gift of the city of New York, which, ax its honored Chief Magistrat-, you have this night presented to the Seventh regiment, in received by ita officers and members with hearts overflowing with grat{- tude. To merit this muniticent testimonial of public appro- bation shall be ourearnest effort, In the future, as in the past; may this regiment ever be found ready to'protect the onor of our beloved city, and to defend the happy homes of its people. The color bearers then advanced, when the Mayor, taking the State flag, handed it to the desiguated official, exclaiming at the same time, “Excelsior;” then the city flag, with the motto “Oranje Bove; then the regimental guidons, with the sentence “Pro Patria et Gloria.” As soon as the presenta- tion formalities were over a complete TRANSFORMATION SCENE was effected. A platform was rigged up in the mid- dle of the room in short order, when Gratulla be- came master of the situation, and to the melodies of Ofenbach and composers of more renown the gallant lads and the pretty lasses who were pre- sent promenaded around the hall and down stairs through the various rooms. In the latter Fiora’s fairest gilts were arranged with exceeding good taste, and, together with specimens of art in the ar- rangement of the national emblem, ee and engravings, added to the originally handsome ap- pearance, TIE DECORATIONS were really beaatiful. Inthe smali drill room was a Nandsome painting by Nast representing the depar- ture of the regiment. The scene ts laid in front of Ball, Black & Co.’s, and the picture 13 an exceed- ingly well executed portrait of the locality, while the principal figures are represented with such eccuracy as to need no comment. in the room 6 the Seventh company was another picture by Nast, entitled “Peace ren and in other rooms were comical sketches of abuses which had prevalied in the ranks, but which, being brought prominently into notice by these sketches, have been done away with. The large picture and the paintmg “Peace at Last,” are masterpieces of oll painting. The latter represents the volunteer rolling up the sleeve of his blue army jacket and about to catch hold of the plough which Is ready for him, while his litile boy, with the military fatigue cap on his head and bayonet for a sword straddles a hoe handle in imitation of @ military commander. The sketches are, of course, in Nast’s best style, and at- tracted during the evening universal admiration, In the room of the Seventh company the floral deco- rations were superb. In the room of the Board of Oficers and in the hallways Gabrielson exhibited his skill_ tn arrangi natural flowers, wiile the decorations in bunting, 1 not by Garvey, were Mad much like it. In the rooms of several of the companies natty members were posted to distribute bouquets to the ladies as they passed through. In the ofMicers’ room were erected fountains emitting luxurious perfumes, and throughout the building there were evidences of the fact that nothing had been left undone to render the affuir the reception par excel- lence of the season. The officers of the regiment have decided to kee the rooms open this evening, so that those of their friends who were not present last evening may have an opportunity of viewing the style in which the Seventh can do things when they set about it.

Y.) MUADER, Another Mysterious Affair. {From the Aibany Argus, April 19.) The coroner's investigation into the circumstances of the murder of Warren Blanchard, in Binghamton, about @ week since, is stil continued, the facts of the case being elicited but slowly. AS we briely mentioned at the time, the body of Blanchard was discovered on Sunday evening of last week lying on the floor of his own house, im that city, and investigation siowed that’ his death hw been the result of a pistol shot wound in a Vital part. About the hour of the supposed murder the woman, Kitty Verry, who passed as the wife of Blanchard, was seen b hbors to leave the house in company With a men, supposed Lo be James De Witt, an old lover, and when the body was dis. covered the house was uniniabiled, This woman, who claims to have been married to Blanchard, al- though ber parents had never heard of such mar. riage, was arrested ata hotel in Binghamton a day or two after, and has been repeatediy examined before the coroner's jury. No information has been elicited from her which will tend to throw any light on the mystery, but the tes timony of many persons who know the parties tends strongly to criminate the woman as an acces- sory, if not the actual murderer. She has beon heard repeatedly to threaten him, and the iife they ave led since their pretended marriage has been a stormy one, De Witt, her supposed paramour, 1s iso lin plicated very strongly in the matter, and the testimony datiy becomes more damaging to him. The tesiimony has not yet beea concluded, but it 1s believed that enough has been developed to warrant the lndic¢tment of the Woman and De Witt. A creat sensation has been caused by the discovery of the dreadful crime in tyat usually peaceful neigabornood, and the press of that elty 19 almost entirely occuplod with the discussion and publication of the paruca- lars of the occurrence, THE AMERICAN PROLESIANT ASSOCIATION. Anniversary Meeting at Cooper Institute Speech of Rev. Dr. Tyng—He Tcils How Frogs are MudemLikewise Papists. The American Protestant Association celebrated last night the 340th anniversary of the signing of the Protest, by a meeting at the great hail of the Cooper Institute, which wes about half filled. Mr. James McKinley, P. R. W. G. M., was called to the chair. The exercises were opened by Rev. M. Walsh. After afew remarks by the President, Mr. A, Mosher was imtroduced and spoke a few minates, Rey. Dr. TyNG was the next speaker. follows: Mr. PRESIDENT AND My FRIENDS, YOUNG AND OLp:—I was a very sick man at noon to-day. I had made up my mind that I could not come; but when it came towards night I remembered that ft was a meeting of the Protestant boys, and it I was not here very likely the “014 Boy” would be, (Laughter.) I made up my mind that whether or no I would come and say a word, It is year ince I have spoxen upon the platform. I spent more than ferty years upon It in battling for human rights. When that giovious war between slavery and liberty was over, in which I spent my breath in maitaining the authority of the goverument over rebeilion and, law- lessness and crime, I thought that I was to liave for the rest of my iife a discharge, But when there was put into my hands an invitation of the Protes- tant Association to address this meeting, my tongue might quiver with palsy in my moath if I refused to say afew words. (Applause.,) Three hundred and forty years ago to-night that faithfal doou- ment “was signed by men faithful God, faithful to the Bible, faithful to hu- manity, faithful to the liberties of their race. They put thel’ names to the protest:-—‘*We will agree to nothing which is repugnant to God or His word, to the salvation of souls or to a good conseience.’’ (Applause.) That ample, solemn, faithful declara- lon, sounding like the very thander of the heavens, has rolled along trom mountain top to mountain top thatallthe dwellers In the valley between might hear the one great truth. We are free—free for God, free for man, free for human welfare, free for the progress of our race, and we mean to be free. That great’ solemn testimony has gone on and we are here to-nicht to put our hands in this meeting at the foot of that noble pro- test and to say we will stand to it. (Cheers.) Now, whatever it may cost, and cost something tt always Will; 16 will cost me something to come here to- night; it will cost me words of derision; it will cost me the condemnation of Papists and of bastard Papists. ‘Great applause.) Herodotus, the great historian of Greece, in giving an account of his travels tells us how frogs are made. He says that they grow out of the slime of the Nile. To prove this he says:—“l was down on the borders of the Nile, and I saw frovs that were partly formed. Nothing but their heads were out; all the rest was unformed mud.”? So it 18 with the great mass of men who are endeavoring to make Papists of them- selves, They grow out of the mud, and while they keen up teir little droning noises their hind legs are kicking still and trying to get out, Ihave the most solemn respect for the Roman Catholic Church. I believe the great body of Intelligent Ro- man Catholics are perfeculy sincere. I the He spoke as spirit of my own defence of liberty I will defend their liberty just as thoroughly as my own. I have been born in a country which, thank God, has not a singe stave. (Appiause.) I desire to see the time come when this country shall not hold aslave of any description whatsoever. I therefore would not restrict the Roman Catholics, They same rights that I have they shailhave, The same protection that I have they shail have. The right to excrewe their utmost power In planting their charch wherever they can find a place for it I do not mean in the least to interfere with. But the right to bottle me up and carry me with them I solemnly protest against. (Applause.) Thank God. I never was made to live in @ rum cask. Nor will I suifer any living man tg bung me up. 1 have been young and now Lam old. The days of man are three Score and ten. If 1 live to anotier birth day [ shatt touch the limit. Up to this ume God has given me @ tongue to speak for the enlargement of liverty througiout the world, and I think he has never per- mitied me to flinch inthe midst of hostility or de- rison. I sincerely respect, 28 I have said. the Roman Catholics, butas for these bastard Papists, I have the most supreme contempt. I would spew them out of my mouth. Fora man, for instance. to stand in this day, in the midst of broad daylight, and tell me that ail the result of this glorious protest is a mere failure m the world, What dees he want? He wants to drive the whole flock back again with Sa- tan’s fold, ‘Lhere is not a particle of sincerity about. stich a man. When liberty floats along upen the skies; when divine instruction irradiates thousands ahd tens of thousands of schoolhouses; when twenty thousand puipits are speaking to men’s minds and consciences; when the whole land is glorious with the beauties of mstruction and the fruits of liberty, @ poor, paltry, petty man stands upon the end of a hogshead and says all this is a failure. My dear friends is there a monkey 80 ridiculous, a skunk 80 obnoxious, a hedgehog, a porcupine so to be avoided as that? Tsay no. The meeting was addressed by Mr. A. Mosher and Rev. H, D. Northrop and others, aiter which it ad- journed, THE INSTITUTION FOX THE IMPROVED INSTRUCTION OF DEAF MUTES. Exhibition of Scholars. The first exhibttion of the scholars of the above institution was held last night at Allemannia all, in Sixteenth street, necr Fifth avenue. The attend- ance was large and highly select. Dr. Blumenthal, the President of the institution, commenced the proceedings by the delivery of an address which was of & very Interesting character. Alter weleoming the friends of the institution the learned Doctor went on to speak of the system pursned. He said the mimicry peculiar to deaf mutes is made avatiable to teach them to'imitate the various movements of the lips, the tongue and the mouth, Teacher and pupil together practise with a mirror before them, and the child imitates the Motions and thus joins the labials and con- sonants. Vowels are taught by letting the child feel upon the teacher's throat or chest, and the hard consonants, such as ¢ pk, by the impression of the forcible breath upon the pupil's hand and the observation of the motions of the tongue combined. ‘The letters thus acquired are combined and syliables and words formed. Pic- torial tllustrations follow, and the child is made to gay What he sees on the picture, At the conclusion of the address, five young chil- Gren of abous six years of age, four of them boys and the other a girl, were brought forward, and their tutor commenced speaxing to them, As fast as the words were formed by the mouth of the teacher the children pronounced them, and afterwards wrote them upon a black board. A clas: of older children, two of its number being con- genital mutes, were then brought forward and put through a course of reading and writ- ing from the teacher's lips. These elder children were also examined in Beography, history and arithmetic, and gave answers that would be a credit to many classes in schools where beget te are blessed with both speech and hearing. je exhibl- tion throughout was both interesting and wonder- fui and considerable interest was evinced by the audience. At the close of the exhibition Judges Daly and ‘ardozo made some pleasant remarks endorsing the aught im the inatitation. UBITUARY, John Lawlor.
