The principal evidence s duced against the defendants was given, by Charles O. hureuberg, @ former cierk in their employ, WhO deposed that the brand used by thei Wee (rauduieut. ihe character of the witness was Sought to be tmpeached, but revurtiug testimony was wiroduced by the government. ‘The evieuce having closed, the Ssuinming up was postponed Hil Tuesuay next Odsiructiang an Oicer in the Discharge of His Duty.

SUPERIOR COURT—SPECIAL TERML What is Necessary to Authorize an Injunc- tion—Opinion by Judge McOunn. Gentil vs, Arnaud.—Jadge MeCunn has delivered ‘the following important opmion in this case:— To authorize an injunction under section 219 of the Code We complaint must show the piaintiiT en- tutied to om peace as naar SH era present preliminary injunc’ Mmtermediate injury. (fart vs. Harvey? 32 Barbour.) Dow the complaint herein exhibits no equity. The mjury alleged 8 @ mere trespass, and a mere tres- 1s insudicient to authorize aa injuncuion. “The principle 01 wjunctive reiief against a tort ts that ‘Whenever damage 1s caused or threatened to pro- erty, adimitted or legally adjudged w be (ue plain- 8 DY AN act of the de/euaant aamitted or legally ad- Judged to be a wrong, and such damage is hut ade- Quately remediable at iaw, an inyanciion may issue a@guinst the commission or coutmuance of the wrong.’ ihus three conditions are essential to in- Junctive relief agaist trespass—iirst, admission or @djadicauon of plaintd’s right; second, adiission or adjudication of the cefendant’s wrong, aud third, Mmadequacy of a remedy at law. Neituer of these ©ouditions are operative in the present case, lor Lop ‘the right of tue plaiutut aud the wrong o/ toe defen- Gant are explicitly denied, aud, in fact, decisively disproved; moreover, it 18 plain the compiaipant has an ample remedy tn action of damages at Jaw, aod bis mere denial of the imadequacy of Jegui remedy avails uowing when he shows BO fact indicative of irreparable injury, aad the Court sees he has abundant redress tu action for Gamages. If the trespass amount to an actual ous- ter, 16 1s remediable by ejectunent; uf it fal short of ouster, then by trespass; and ta neither of these cases Will an iwjunction lie (fnomas vs. Oakley, 18 Vesey, 184). There must be some special equity in the case so as to bring (ie imjunction under the lead of quieting possession, or preventing irrepara- bie mjury or juadequacy of compensation in dam- ages (Livingston vs. Livingston, 6 Jonns, Uh, R., 497). That an injunction will not issue waen the in- yury 18 remediabie by damages (see Marshall vs. Pe- ters, 12 liow., 218); and i well estaolisies that it Will not issue to resirain an apprehended tres- pass (alayor of New i ork vs. Conover, 6 Abb.) Tue @ilegation in the complaint of the destrucuon aud Teuioval of the plainuil’s personal property raises no equity lo an injunction, sluce these are Lojuries for Which an obvious and adequate remedy May be bad at law by an action of trover, replevin or Wespass. A bul of injuncuion may be dismissed on moon without an answer lor want of equity on its face randall vs. Woods, 4 Call., 449). It bemg obvious, erefore, on the face of the complaint that the plainiit is not entitied to injunctive relief as a part ‘Of the final judgment in the case, there is no author. ity to issue or uphold un interim mjnncnon. On this poiat the language of sub. 1, sec. 219 of Code 18 explicitand peremptory, “Where it shall appear by the complaint that the plaintiif 18 entitied to the re- Hef demanded, and such relief consists In a final tjunction,” &c. The plaintif’s own statement of her case positively discredits her claim 10 injunc- tive relief. In a certain sense an inverlocuwry In- Junction is iy the discretion of the Court; yet the discretion ig not arbirary or capricious, but is regu- Jated by weil estabushed and familiar ruies of prac- tice. A preliminary injunction should not be granted ‘uniess the injury is pressing and deiay dangerous. A ciear right, iree from reasonabie doupt, must be shown ww authorize @ preliminary inter- ference of the court In the present case the right is not only denied, but positively disproved, and itis an almost universal practice to Gissoive the injunction where the answer fuily denies all circumstances upon which the equity of the bill w founded. (Hoffman vs. Livingston, 1 Johns. ch. R. 211.) In tne present case not only is the equity of the bill exphicitiy denied, but, in tact, all the mghy and all the equity are with the defendants. They are in the legal possession and enjoyment of the building, and the plainuf? is a mere trespasser, without a shadow of title. Never before did an intruder seek, much less obtain the equitable inter- Position of the court to uphold him in his wrongful entry. ‘The injunction order should be dissolved. ‘SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS.

WTERESTING CHURCH ANNIVERSARY CELE- BRATION. 4 Reminiacences of One of the Oldest Preshy- terinn Churches im the United State Honors to Deceased Pastora—Closo of the Celebration Yesterday. ‘The celevation of the one hundred and fittieth an- niversary of the First Presbyterian church of Orange, N. J., heid m the time-honored stone edifice on the corner of Main and Day sireets, in that town, during yesterday and the preceding evening, were brought to a close last might, The present plain, simple, yet spacious and comfortavie siructure, waa erectea some fifty-mx yoarsago. Preceding it was a wooden and subsequently a stone building, bullt exactly in front of the present church, in the middle of the thoroughfare now Known as Main street, ‘The exercises attending tho opeuing of the cele- brpuon om Wednesday evening were participated in by a large and highly respectable congregation, in- cluding @ considerabie number of ladies and many distinguished persons from outside localities, After the singing of a hymn, specially prepared for the oo- casion by Rev, W. Bradley, had been sung and the Teading of a portion of Holy Writ, a very interesting sermon was deliverea by the pastor, Rev. Eldridge Mix, Then followed the most notice- able feature of the exercises—the delivery of a oe Sacreee and the Cin gag and ter ing of 8 memorial tablet, erected to the mem the two first pastors of the cifurch, Revs. Dante! Taylor and Caleb Smith. The address was pre- pared and delivered by Rey. W. Henry Green, D. D., of Princeton College, @ lineal descendent of Rev. Caleb Smith. The rear of the pulpit was neatly and atin ply trimmed with evergreens, while covering the table in front was a large collection of choice flowers. The celebration was resumed yesterday afternoon, at three o’clock, and was equally interesting a on the preceding even! A large congregation was resent a8 well as quite a company of clergyinen. mong the latter were Rev. Drs, Wilson, of Newark; Wood, of New York; Hatfield, of New York; Lowell Mason, of Orange; Rev, Messrs. Maxwell, of South Oranany Rox, of Bloomfield; De Veuve, of New- ark. le singing of a psalm from Kev. Cotton Mather’s collection; a ag Another psaim being finished, Rev. Dr. . Gillett, of New York, delivered @ historical discourse of great Interest and evidencing in its preparation large research as re- gards the etry erty of the Presbyterian Church in this country, Dr, Gillett commenced by saying that the life of a Church was not necessarily like that of @ man, bounded by a period of threescore years. The period of a Church’s. existence might witness social and ; civil rercrieany might jook cown on changes oI aynasties an rom ments, A Church was forever young and fresh, while the hamlet became a village and the village a city; while the grandest struct of human art crumbled to decay and the records of centuries might moulder back to dust, More than four sac- ceasive generations that have worshipped here, said the rev apeaker, have away, and we gather, as it were, over their dust to commemorate the progress and review the history of what they planted and cherished. One hundred and fitty Years ago the: Presbyterian Churca in this land was @ feeble sapling, with uncertain prospects before it, There were then throughout tue entire country only twenty-six Presbyterian ministera and about forty feeble churches. He reviewed all the trials and tribulations of the Church immediately following its foundation in this country, at @ period when James Anderson, ot New York; John Thomp- son, of Delaware; Pomeroy, of Newtown; Jonathan agatusta Liga Church episcopacy, wito Was trusted against a larch episcopacy, who and honored alike in New England as in Scotiand;” of Daniel Taylor, the first pastor of the Church of Newark Mountains,” who died about January, 17: and related how that in 1738 Aaron Burr, father 01 Vice President Burr, settled in Newark, and was mainly instrumental in “the great work of Goa” revival of 1739. The reason why so many Presby- terian clergymen left New England ut that period was, Dr. Gillott said, because oifthe excessively stringent blue laws which prevailed there. So rigid were these civil laws that men were thrown into prison for preaching what was then termed the “New Light Boctrine. Among these was David Bramerd, long a missionery in New Jersey, and foung Finlay, who was afterwards President of jaceton College. The dtvision, which commenced on doctrinal points in 1741, was joied together egain im 1753; but still persegution of per- sons preaching ‘heterodox’? views continued. Among these latter were the veneravie Drs. spring and Cox, of New York, both of whom are still livmg. He also recurred to the period when, in New York, Lord Cornbury used all his power to make the Episcopal the established Churea, and actuaily imprisoned @ Presbyterian di- vine, Kev. Mr. Francis Mackennie, for preaching sermon in a private house in Pearl street, New York olty. ihe reverend doctor, towards the close, forci- bly contrasted the early struggies of the Church here compared with its great stability, more espe- clally since the glorious reunion of the Church—Uld and New. The entire discourse was listened to with the deepest attention. in the evening another large congregation assem- bled in the church and listened to a very interesting narrative discourse, with recollections of his pasto- rate, by the Rey. James Hoyt, the predecessor of the present pastor. During the services, just be- fore the discourse, tne tor asked those present to sing the doxol ey, while he pre- sented to them a veneradle old gentleman namea Cyrus Jones, of Kast Orange, the oldest living member of the church. The scene for the moment wasexceedingly impressive. ‘Ihe services in tae churca cgncluded, the congregation repaired to Library Hall, where a choice repast had been pre- pared by the ladies. Then came to a termination one of the most interesting events connected with Presbyteriamsm in New Jersey. LONG ISLAND. A New RatiRoap TO Fiusnina.—Tne Long Isiand Railroad is making a sarvey for a new rail- Toad to Flashing, The new road will connect with the Long Island Ratiroad at Windeld and will run direct from that point to Flushing, passing through the village of Newtown, a distance of three and a balf miles. This road is to be built under a charter ovtained from the Legislature several years since, empowering the Long I¢land Railroad Company to Dulid faterai branches from the main line to any polnt on the porth or south shore of the island. THE EPISCOPAL CONVOCATION, Close of the Exercisee—Christian Education, The convocation of the Episcopal clergy of Long Island, which convened in St. George’s church, Fioshing, on Wednesday morning, concluded its business yesterday. After the preliminary exercises of the morning Bishop Littlejohn made a brief address, in which he said that the convocation was a voluntary agsemblage of the clergy. None were present from compulsion or even from @ sense of duty. itwas an informal mecting, not designated by the name of convention, for the consideration and discussion of matters and topics connected with the churcn. The agitation of such subjects and the comparison of opinions upon practical topics could not fall to prove beneficial. Opinion is jaw ip solution—opinion ts power in its inception— opinion ig the precursor of fact. It 18 important that we compare and examine the opinions of dif- Jerent minds if we would gain @ ciue to the pros- pective course of events, The question of “Christian education” was then iatroduced. The firat speaker was Mr. Jacobs, of Isp. His remarks had particular reference to boarding schools, Many Episcopalians wero desirous of sending thejr chil- dren to Episcopal schools, but it was a we ‘nown fact that such imstitutions were lacking. The first Episcopal boarding school was inaugurated by Dr. Mulenbauer in Fiushing, and for @ time fourished, and was an incentive to thelr establishment in other places, but for want of support or {roi cause unknown vo nim, they witimately failed, and now scarcely oue genuine Episcopal school is to be found. The Speaker thought they should be established s0 as to come within reach of all, rich and poor, ata low Tate of tuition, He believed that the Church was not yet Clear of the one fault #0 commonly charged upon ber—that of not being within the reach of we poor. Dr, Hull was the next speaker, and shightiy disagreed with Dr. Jacobs. He voieved that much of tae fault-fnding of the world wag due to selfish faults aud practices, He had tried to wet aig oe with the poor vy associating with wuem. When he called upon them he partook of tueir hos- Pitality or he would be charged wita social repug- nance and @ preierence of dining with the rich ex- Clusively. tis experience bad taught him that the Church had exerted herself to bring the poor where they refused to be brougit, There is a false pride Peculiar to the American people waich olten* ren- dered those Most in need Of assi#ance the hardest to approach. To see independe! persoulfiea we have ouly to try one of tue plebelau democracy—one Witnout a cent in his pocket. He waa followed vy Dr. Schenck, of Brooklyn, who delivered an abie and elec nea discociee in the carly education of the mind 1n its various spheres, and held that the old and young were each teachers of the others. There were other speakers, but thelr remarks in general were of the same tone and expression of senument. The convocation adjourned in tae afternoon, and the Clergy expressed themselves well pleased with tue features of the gathering. WESTCHESTER COUNTY. DROWNED IN THE HUPSON.—The dead body of an unknown man was fonnd floating in the fudson Tiver, @ short distance north of Dobbs’ Ferry, yoster- day morning. ‘The body, which had apparently been in the water but @ few hours, was thatof a man avout Meda of age, having a cork log on the rignt side, and hed on dark siriped pantaioous and vest, vlue jacket, = Wik xoitted undershirt of the sate color aud buckled shoes.
