Baidwin's was burat, What It Has Accomplished. Fifty-six years ago, a8 now, there was found in the State of New York « class or aged females who had seen better days, but whose declining years were saddened by poverty and oftentimes by the need of acertainhome., Their former position in society as regarded education and general respectability naturally forbade the thought of their seeking an asylum in the poorhouse, aud yet there seemed to be no other place where they could spend their de- chining days—no spot that would recall the memo- ries and comforts of home. For the relief of just this class a few benevolent ladies were moved to compassion, - Several meetings were held for the discussion of their plans, when, in the summer of 1813, an associa- tion was formed, which was called “A Society for the Relief of Aged Indigent Females."' After con- tinued and discouraging efforts a suMcient num- ber of subscribers were obtained to warrant the en- terprise, and on the 7th of February, 1814, their frat meeting was held in the session room of the old brick Presbyterian church, which at that time was built on the site now occupied by the New York Times building. A constitution was then adopted and a board of sixteen managers was duly elected. The board consisted of the following ladies, viz.:— Mrs. James Dunlap, first directress; Mrs. B. M. Mum- ford, second directreas; Mrs. Jonn Bingham, trea- surer, and Mrs. R Havens, secretary. The Tollowing ladies were elected T8:—Miss Ke- becca tt, Miss Hardenbrook, Ann Glass, Miss Ann Nichols, Mrs. Delia Henry, Mrs. Benjamin De Forest, Mrs, Anne Church, Mrs, Saran Gunn, Mra, Elizabeth’ Post, Mra, Jessie Baldwin, Mra, Richard Cunningham and Mrs, Tyler Maynard. Of that first board there remain but two sur- vivors. One continues in her deotining years to take put in the management of the affairs of the institu- ion, advancing its interests witn her matured ex+ rience and her faithful prayers. The lady is Mrs, joldsmith, who was at the formation of the asso- ciation Miss Leggett. From the time of the formation of the society the managers continued to meetin the Brick church session room unti May, 1817, when they retinquishe t its use, except for their annual meeting, and for three years met alternately at each other's resi- dence, after which time the meetings were Dyke held at the house of Miss Catharine Brinkerholf, unul the completion of their present asylum build- ing in 1838, From 1824 to 1838 the annual meetings were held in the consistory room of the Collegiate Reformed Dutch church in Fulton street, In 1816 the association received from the Common Council the snm of $300, ana during the following year $250. These sums comprise all the public moneys ever received by the institauon. ‘or all funds that were needed for the furtherance of the society during the first twenty-four years of its ex- istence the managers looked to legacies, charity ser- mons and collections in the churches, and to the private subscriptions of individnal friends. In the winter of 1822-23 an auxiliary society was formed, under the direction of Mrs. E. Mowatt and Ann Dominick (now Mrs. Gillet, the present first directress), the object ot which was to provide suitable clothing for the outdoor pensioners, of Whom there are at present one hundred, and its aid has been felt to be of incalcuable value, Over $1,000 was expend :d on them last year. In 1833 the project of erecting ® building which should be a suitable asylum for the pensioners was first proposed to the friends of the institution. ‘fhe want of such a building had long been felt. In the winter of 1834 a sermon on behalf of the society, with this especial object 1m view, was preached by the Rey. Dr. Schroeder in the Church of the Ascen- sion (then in Canal street), after which @ collection was made, amounting to $310 20. So eloquent was the preacher in setting forth the claims of this par- ticular class of the poor that his appeal touched the hearts of many of his hearers. On their return from charch, Peter G, Stuyvesant to her hus- band, “Coud we not afford to give them a littio land?” ‘The suggestion was complied with, and three lots Were soon alter presented to the socie.y by Mr. Stuyvesant. A subscription list was at once opened, which Mr. John Jacoo Astor headed with 000, on condition thas $20,000 Bkeald be raised within @ year. The managers now awoke to new zeal and became earnest in thelr endeavors to promote their object. They presented tae cams of the association to many of the merchants of the city, and their appeal was not in vain, Within the year the condition of Mr. Astor was complied with, but for good reasons the building was not begun until 1837, A committee ol gentlemen, composed of Messrs. Anson G. Phel; - C. Goddard, George Nixon and Nathaniel Littlefeld, supermtended 1 erection. It 1s truly, a8 the matron remarked to the writer yesterday, not only a retreat for tne aged, infirm aud destitute female, but aiso a monument to = ee charity of the merchants of New York. ‘The necessity for a separate apartment, to be used as an infirmary, s00n became apparent to the Board. Their plan was laid before Mr. Astor, who gave it his sanction, and pledged himself for $3,090 toward the erection of an additional building, Other lesser sumé were contributed, until the management felt authorized in pushing forward their undertaking, In 1845 the lot adjouning the asylum was purchased, and a building begun upon &, Which was completed she following spring. The asyium buliding occuptes the whole of four lots on Twentieth street, between Second and Third avenues. It ts four stories high, beside the base- ment and sub-cellar, The basement contains the reception rooms, dining room, kitchen, laundry and infirmary, with all the accommodation for culinary purposes. The principal story 1s reached by & douole flight of stairs, and is entered bya large doorway, irom whicn @ hall eightegn feet wide runs the entire length of the building, witn the exception of a small adjoining building of twelve rooms. ‘Thi story is occupied bya suit of rooms consisting of two parlors, chapel and four sleeping rooms. Each of the upper stories contains tweive rovras, which are used as sleeving apartments by the inmates, Visitors to the home are under no more restrictions than visiting a private residence. ‘Che interior of the institation 18 substantially furnished. ‘The stairs, together with all the doors and window trim- mings, are of piain device, though the hails and ves- tibules are floored with mosaic tiles, ‘The exterior of the building is of brown stone and brick, with an occasional ornamentation of North river graywacke, Candidates for admission must be over sixty years of age and have proper testimonials with regard to their character. ‘They are admitted by rotatiwwn. On admission they rey, a fee of eighty doilars, and they then partake for life of the coimiorts of a home tree of charge. Of course, with the increase of popula- tion of the city come Increasing calis from aged and indigent women, that they may be overshadowed in their poverty and age and icebieness with the wing of charity. ach year the present building seems to grow sinailer and more inconvenient, there being at Present avout eighty 1amates. During the first year there was expended by the committee of inanagement $55,116 23, and there nce of about $3,000 on hand. Ing are the names ol the present officers of the association:—Mrs, ‘lett, first directress; Mrs. A. I. Anderson, second directress; Mrs. W. M. Vermilye, secretary; Mrs. KE. S.

A stranger, aiter inspecting the institution and seeing the happy countenances of the ini on sauntering along the crowded eahetons where aged virtue is pushed aside, would be tempted to exclaim, “Would that they, too, at the close of a darkened life, when the shadows of evening are stretching out, could find beneath the sheltering roof of this home for the aged @ fulfilment of the promise ‘At evening time it shall be light,’ ” MOVEMENTS OF THE CHINESE MERCHANTS, The two distinguished Chinese visitors, Messrs, Choy-vhew and Sing-Man, commenced the day yes- terday by visiting the office of the Pactfic Mail Steam- ship Company, and afterwards, under the kindly guidance of Mr, G. Law, made a tour through two 0 the national institutions, comprising the Custom House and the Sub-Treasury, Huving been thor- Oughly mformea oi the workings of both these de- partments the gentlemen from China declared them- acives highly delighted with the manner in which Col- lector Grinnell and General Butterfield kept the ma- chinery of their offices moving.

The Pithole Bond Robbery ina New Phase. $106,000 Counterfeit Money for Three Pounds of Old Paper and One $1,000 Bond. Brokers, Detectives and Sharpers Outwit One Another, In the usual course of events it came to the know- ledge of Genera: Butterfeld, Sub-Treasurer in this otty, and Superintendent John A. Kennedy, of the police force, that there existed an organized gang of financiers, acting under the authority of Wall street recommendations, whose chief business was to negotiate the sale of stolen bonds by throwing them upon the market, For some time the names of the parties attached to this ring of thieves and thieves’ assistants nave been in the possession of the detective police, but it was deemed advisable to permit them to complete their Work before taking action for their arrest. At the office of Sergeant Kelso, chief of the detective squad, frequent complaints have been made by persons doing business on the “street! that they bad been swindied by parties representing themselves as agents of bond thieves; but as the chief of the force and Superintendent Kennedy considered that men who would condescend to act as negotiators between burgiara and reputable prokers were no better than thieves, they declined to assist tne complain- ants in obtaining redress, Among these complainants was a Wall street out- Side operator, named Steyne, who represented that one certain night he had met one of the agents of the bond thieves under a gaslight, and gave $5,000 in genume funds for $20,000 in what he supposed to be genuine stolen bonds, but which subsequently proved to be a package of sawdust, Another go-between some days ago represented at police headquarters that he had been swindled out of $5,000 in the same manner. These parties, as well ag many others, who for years have borne reputable names in financial circles, asked for the arrest of the alleged swindlers, but the detective police failed to take action. Four days ago General Butterfield, through one of the Treasury agents—Mr. Sampson—iniormed the Superintendent of Police that there were in this be ® number of persons dealing in stolen bonds, and asked Mr. Kennedy to assist in their capture. The Superintendent at once conferred with the Sub-Treasurer and obtained some tangible points upon which to work. He learned that Mr. Sampson had arranged for the purchase of $125,000 of the bonds stolen from Mr. Bennehoff, of Pituole, Pa., for $106,000 in greenbacks, the sale to be completea on jursday at Hudson City. The Saperintendent @t once conferred with Chief Kelso, who detailed detectives Eustace, Tiley and Tully, of nis squad, to assist the United States authorities, ‘On Wednesday these officers reported to Mr. Samp- gon, of the Treasury Department, and after a con- ference a plan of action waa agreed upon. It was agreed that a Wall street broker, whose name is suppressed for obvious reasons, should complete the negotiations. Aman named Rosch, a detective of the 'Ireasury Department, was named as the repre- seutative of the Wall street broker. He had several interviews with three men at various points tn this city and Hoboken, the result of which was that at two o’clook on Thursday afternoon he was t ineet them at Kosch’s Hotel, corner of Third and Hudson streets, Hoboken, and effect the transfer. The New York deteetives were there, but there was no nego- tiation—the sellers giving as an excuse that they had failed to secure the bonds. Two o'clock yester- day was upon as the hour fur completing the purchase and excnanging the money. While these negotiations were pending between the United States Treasury agents and the bond dealers Kelso's men were occupying a room on the opposite side of the street, which they had hired for the purpose, and from which they had a view of the hotel, At the hour named Rosch entered room No. 27, on the top of the house, with a package contain- tng $106,000 in counterfeit tens, twenties and fitties, which he passed to the mea, and received in revurn @ package purporting to contain $125,000 in Pithole stolen bon Rosch took the package, walked out, met Eustace, Tilley and Tully, who immediately sur- rounded ail the doors (three in number) of room 27, and after a lively Aight, 10 wnich the men attem; ted to resist and the oficers were forced wo iutimi them with revolvers, they were secured, and tue $100,000 in counterfeit money found upon them. ‘The oMicers at once escorted their prisonors to the Central Police Office in New York, not waiting for a stuacerd where they were locked up on the charge of false preten ces. On exammiog the package, which purported to contain $125,000 of the bonds stolen from Mr. Benne- bof, for the recovery of which there 1s @ large re- ward, Sergeant Keiso discovered that it contained one genuine $1,000 bond, and about three pounds weight of old newspapers. The by sn arrested gave the names of John Laid- low, of Wiiliamsvurg; Gabriel Gorsbyne and Arnold Brown, and their profession brokers. They will be taken to the Tombs Police Court ths morning, but as they have given $1,000 genuine currency for $106,000 counterfeit money it will be dimicult to convict them. Nevertheless the detective officers of the city and nation acted in good faith, and if the} have been put in a hole by tne financiers in their eflocts to secure the stolen Pithole bonds it is no fault of theirs. Upon the person of one of the accused was found the following memorandum, showing that the $1,000 vond was purchased yesterday :— BaNK(ne House oF Fiske & Hatou,) No, 5 Nassau STREET, New Youk, August 13, 1869, 5 Sold to Mts.

It i alleged that the accnsed have made immense suins by representing that they had influence with the internal revenue ojiicers and by showing fac- similes of Sneridan Shook's receipts, seals and stamps, inducing dishonest liquor manufacturers to pay them for their influence. Officers of the Trea- sury Department who were at tne Central Oitice at a late hour last evening state that the prisoners have made large sums out of the tobacco men, whose conidence they secured, and whom they succeeaea in victimizing. ‘The facts will come out before the court this morning, when tt is expected numerous complainants will appear, unless they are deterred by tue fe ar of compromising themseives.

Tho Fisk Injanetion Before Judgo Pecke ham—Postponement ef the Case Until Augast 30, ALBANY, August 18, 1860, This morning tne injunction of the Ramsey party» known as suit No, 1, instituted on Satarday last, restraining Fisk and Courter from acting or attempt -fng to act as receivers of the Albany and Susque- hanna Railroad Company, its franchises or its pro- perty, came up before Judge Peckbam, according to the order summoning the defendants to appear to- day to show cause why the injunction should not be enforced, Mesars, W. F. Allen, J. K. Porter and 3, Hand appeared for the plaintiff, and Amasa Parker and D. D. Field for the defendants, Upon the opening of the court Mr. Parker moved to suspend further action until September. Mr, Allen said the plaintitts would prefer to post- pone the case, aa they were not quite ready to move, Judge Peckham said he thought it would be much better to suspend the case until the facts were aa- certained in the lnvestigation now going on before Surrogate Lawton. He himself did not know yet which was really the legal receiver of the road, and as that was an important feature of the cage he thought it advisable fur both parties to stop every- thing until the questions of fact are determined. Mr. Field that the parties he represented would no doubt agree to a cessation of all injunc- tion proceedings until a later day, bat it should be understood that the gentlemen connected with the Ramsey interest must appear in court whenever wanted. He did no‘ care to issue writs it them if they would promise to appear. Mr. Allen remarked that he supposed there was at that moment a Sherif"s posse in town with @ Writ for the arrest of some ot the Ramsey parties. Mr. Field said he would ep all that. The whole matter could be arranged in @ few moments. Mr. Parker said they had better have a full under- standing of the condition im which the litigavon would remain during the postponement. He pre- sumed that during the interval the injunction order against Fisk and Courter would not be enforced. Mr. Porter said it would be entorced, and read an oraer which he had drawn up for the Judge to s:gn, postponing the hearimg and enforcing tue restraint upon Fisk and Courter. Considerable discussion followed, the counsel for the defendants opposing the proposition to enforce the restraint upon Fisk and Courter during tae pen- dency of the suit; but the Judge decided that the order would be proper, and stated tat he would issue it, Counsel for the defence then filed a protest, which was embodied in the order of Judge Peckham. The order is as ioliows:— At @ special term of the Supreme Court held at the cham- bers of Junuice Peckham, in ihe city of ‘Albeng, os ‘he 15a day of August, 1569, Present. R.

Porter, William ¥, Alien Hand, of counsel for the plaintits, Messrs, A. J. Parker and D.v. Field, of counsel for some of the defen- dants being now presext, and objecting that there fs no court now in session, and that the justice present has no juriadic- ton to make any order and. protesting against any order being now made, ‘Ordered, that the said order to show cause on this day and the hearing thereof be and hereby 1s postponed to the svecial term of this court to Do hold on the duh day tagiust instant, at the City Hall inthe clty of Albany, and in the meantime, and vnt{i the hearing and deciston of said matter, it {s further orderded that the said injunction continue in sor age Il the defendants, and that the defendants not yet served show cause why they should not ined and en- ined as stated in aald order, a copy of which ts to be served erewith at least four days before sald term. JOHN McEWEN, Clerk, Mr. Hand then took up tho casé of Van Val- kenburgu against the Company, in which Mr. Pruyn was appointed receiver. Judge Barnard had granted an order on the i0th that the Van Valkenburgh party slow cause, at Al- bany, on the 3ist, why the order appointing Pruyn should not be vacated, and in thc ineantime forbid- ding Pruyn to act. ‘This waa served on the 11th and an order hae immediately oe oo coe oe Peckham stayin woage eros ge Barnard’s order, and re rine the Barnard party to show cause to-day why the order should not be vacated. ‘The Court after hearing counsel modified Judge Barnard’s order, vacating that part of 1 which re- tained Pruyn from acting ag receiver, and the case went over to August 31, when the Van Valkenburgh party will ——, to show cause, &c., in comphance see) qudee jarnard’s order.

ALBANY, August 73, 1869, The taking of testimony by Surrogate Lawton in regard to the Fisk and Pruyn appointments as re- ceivers of the Susquehanna road and the scenes which transpired at the company’s office on Satur- day last was resumed at three o'clock this after- noon. The only witness was David Wilbur, one of the directors, who was cross-examined by the Ram- sey counsel, Wilbur testified that on the night of the 6th he was present at a meeting of Fisk and Gould jawyers, Sherman, Sveiling, Ensign and other coan- gel and several Fiskite directors of the Albany and Susquehanna Raliroad, in Fisk's opera building, New York, at which meeting the document was signed by certain directors of the road assenting to the appointment of Fisk and Courter as receivers. The meeting also nominated the following gentle- men tor directors of the road, to be elected as soon as Fisk obtained control of the lme;—Uharies Courter, Jeremiah Austin, Jacob Leonard, Azro eit David Wilbur, Samuel North, Jay Gould, James Fisk, Jr, James Bush, Ham- jiton Harris, Alonzo ‘Everts and Walter Schurz, Fisk was to be the general mana. gerdf the road, and would probably have been elected president. Courter was to be superintendent. ‘The meeting did not break up until haif-past ten, and Fisk, Courter and others came-to Albany by the eleven o'clock train that night to seize the road. Upon the conclusion of Wilbur's testimony the case ‘was adjourned until next Wednesday. Everything has been very quiet to-day, no specta- tors atiending the legal proceedings, and tne pubic manifesting very little interest in the affair. The Albany Sheriff has to-day been after Mcasrs. Ramsey, Proyn and Van Valkenburgh with a pon- bailableattachment from Judge Barnard, bat bas made no arrest, from the fact that the parties cannot be found. The Shertf is himself in bot water, fear- ing that if he executes the order he will get into trouble here, and although backed up by counsel employed to look out for him is evidently grati- fled that the Ramseyites are out of bis reach. The friends of Kamsey, Proyn and Van Valken- burgh refuse to give any information concerning their whereabouts, but intimate toat the Fiskites will have a lively time before catching them, ‘he proposition made this morning by Messrs, Parker and Field to atop the execution of the order of arrest if the three would promise to appear be- fore the New York courts at =v, time they might be wanted, was treated with derisive lauguter on the streeta, the Kamseyites stating that it would be some time before the three gentiemen wouid visit New York. ‘This afternoon the counsel for Fisk applied to the executive managers of the road for the appointinent’df Pratt, of the Erie, as assistant superintendent in place of Van Vaikenburgh, and of Gardiner, also of the Brie, as station agent of the Susquenanna road at the Binghamton station. e request was not complied with. Colonel Banks to- day received the keys of the company's office and gale, and is in possession of all the ro.ing siock and other property of the road, which 18 now run- ning as 1 no interruption had occurred, With the exception of Ramsey and Van Valkenbargh all the old officials of the road are attending to thelr reguiar duties. To-morrow the leading Kamseyites asyemble at Collic:’s, a station on the road, to meet a large number of stockhold- ers who reside near there and at Cooperstown. The object is understood to be to flank Fisk. Governor Hoffman says that le considera h'~ if done with the matter, and oxprace-- «1-80 - wvg the opinion ee cane further “ange im oMcials until one v decided the question, Several Of the enn sel for both parties have gone to New 4 ork, and there seems no prospect of anything of importance being done in the matter until Wednes- day next, when the case comes up again before 3 ur- rogate Lawton, The Road Fally Repaired—Business Procecd- ing a» Usan!—Everything Quiet.
