The Validity of Bail Bonds, Before Judge Benedict. Tne United States vs. Michael Hollacher.—In thi ase Judge Beuedict yesterday aclivered opinion as follows:—I deem 1t judicious to refrain from exprees- ing my opinon upon the point taken by the defendant im this action, and which was informally argued be- fore me during last month, not because of any doubt esto the law, but by reason of the nature of question raised, affecting, as it does, the validity of bail bonas ‘as they are taken by the Commissioners in the South- ern District of New York. Such @ question should, it seems to me, be directed by the Circuit Judge, whose determination would be controlling, and re- sult in & uniformity of practice in the various dis: tricts, jach as the case 1s not in form submit ted, I can, thereiore, with propriety, decline to de- cide it while in its present shape. | I shail express nO opinion upon the point raised, but shalt direct the case be restored to the calendar, there to be @isposed of when taken up 10 its order, UNITED STATES COMMISSIONZAS’ COURT, Alleged Revenue Frauds, The United States vs, Thomas B, Crotty.—The defendant was charged with carrying on the busi- ness of a liquor dealer at No. 316 Seventh avenue without having paid the spectal tax required by law.

Police Commissioner Bosworth yesterday heard evidence in about twenty complaints against oficers of the force.

One of the latter, named Miltner, was dangerously stabbed in three places by Palmer, wha made no attempt to escape, A. Bortrof, living corner of Thirty -fifth street and Second avenue, charges that Heelan arrived duriug the altercation; witness arrested Palmer, and turning him over to tho police. man inlormed ui that he had seen Palmer commit the act. Bortroff swears that the officer took hola of the prisoner, when the latter turned to the officer aud agkea, “Y hot going to arrest mo?! Heelay i ky REPT a dl ort distance gyd let bigs go at liberty. The ofticer, He avers, tola § dozen times that Palmer was thé offéhder. Charles Walbeck, o1 Eighty-elgath street, contirmed these siatemenis and swore that having seen Palmer do the stabbing he pointed him out to Heelan as the man. A. A. Ulrick, of Seventieth street, near First avenue,- gave sunilar testimony, and swore that Heelan had Palmer under arrest. Miitner is now dangerously ul in Bellevue Hospital and Palmer hag in| the city, Tue turtuer hearing was set for ines : Onicer Lockwood, of the Twenty-seventh pro- cinct, was charged by a German named Williem Wukening, of No. 10 Rector street, with improper conduct. Tne complainant cbarged that one night his wife sent his littie daughter out at ten o'clock for some buttons, the oiticer met her, clubbed and abused her. He went out, demanded an explana- on, when the officer turned upon him, clubbed him @ dozen times; knocked him down, kicked him, arrested him and took him before Judge Dowling, who discharged him. The complainant called trve eye —_ witnesses, Who swore posi- lively to the above facts, and ‘that the oMcer clubbed Wilkening before he resisted. The defence admitted the ciubbing, but provea by twe witnesses tat Wilkening tirst seized Lockwood by the throat, that the littie girl was knocked dowa by a crowd of roughs, and that the officer pieked her up.

A Lively Mill Between Charley Dougherty and D. J. Childress—A Nigger In the Ring—Sixteen Rounds Fought— Spirited Pummelling and Heavy Falls—Childress Loses the Fight by a Foul. — Ricawonp, Va., Dec, 30, 1869, Another lively fistic mill has taken place in the vicinity of this city, notwithstanding the vigilance of the police detectives and the military. It seems that Virginia ts destined to be the fleld of these en- counters in the ‘manly art,’ though the natives to the manner born have no sort of sympathy whatev er with the brutality of the ring. For several days past whad been noised about that a match for $100 a Side had been arranged to take place between Charley Dougherty, a pugilist of some reputation, and D. J. Childress, an amateur, who aspired to the honors of the arena and who mant- fested considerable pluck in throwing down the gauntlet to so formidable an antagonist as Dougherty. The latter, it will be remembered, distinguished himself on a former occasion in a fight with Tom Hammond, an Englishman, at Dis- patch station, on the York River Railroad, where, after eignty-six hard contested rounds, in which both were feariully mutilated, Dougherty was de- clared the victor. He subsequently challenged Sam Collyer for $300 a side and the championship, which was accepted, and the parties met at Jamestown Island, in the James river, but unfortunately for the crowd of “sports” who went to witness the ‘mill,’ Dougherty was found to be overweight, and Coliyer claimed the stakes. The fight did not come otf. Childress has no experience m the ring, and he is much the lighter man of the two, neither being in training. ‘The preliminaries being all arranged at an early hour this morning, a select crowd of the sporting Iraternity left the city by Various conveyances and Soon reached the scene on the Darbytown road, where the princtpais and seconds were already assembled, W ithout any useless trouble @ conve- nient and suitable spot was at once selected, the Stakes Were driven, the ropes passed through the hgies and the ring was formed. ‘Tne ceremony of choosing @ referee, umpires and timexeeper was then spon, epertosed. resulting a8 follows:—Keferee, J. H. Brown; Dee AR ah Pht and N. Krebs, and ‘Timekeeper, J. H. Lambert, Bill Peasiey und Bob Ailen acted as seconds for Dough erty, and Jack Finn and William Cummings Tor Childress, Both the men soon after appeared, and were grected with cheers by their respective iriends. During the stripping considerable betting took place on the subjects of “first biood,” “first knock-down’? and other icatures always of intense interest t@ the devotees of the ring, Childress won the choice of corners, Every preparation being now complete, the referee in a few remarks advised the combat- ants Gs to the rules, and cauuoned tem in the mac- ter of “fouls,” after which he called “Lime.” TUM FIGHT. Rovnp 1.—Both the men came to the scratch smiting and sowing flae physical development. ‘They eyed eact other closely, and gave the bystan ers quite an exhioition of sparriug, each being cau- tious of arousing the veuiper of is Opponent. ‘They danced round the ring ailter tho lashion of Yankee Sullivan, and Dougherty led of wih a hi y blow on Ohildress’ chest, when the latter cl jor a wrestie aud thiew Dougherty, wuich ciosed the rount RowND 2.—At the call both again promptly came totime, sparring aud dancing a Virginia reel in we ring, though tuis time more in earnest than beore, Chudress thought ne would try bis hand this ume, and succeeded in geting 1a @ left-hander on Char- ley’3 smeller, " (Cneers from the ir “Go for ulin, you —."?) and cries of First biood for Childress, ime,?’ meaning business, cely at his opponent. Thi Was too mach science for work though, and they soon closed in a wrestie, Whea Charley administered some heavy blows on Childress’ rius, and both went down amid great excitement, About ths time the utication of the spectators Was attracted by cries of “A giv’ in another dire Uon, and soon a iarge number surrounded @ nigger and @ white nian who were engaged in & reguiar “rough and tumbie,’? much to the edification of the crowd, ‘This lasted @ lew moments, but without wailing the resuit the spectators ran back to the ring, Whea they heard the magic call of ‘Time’? Kounp 4.—This was something like the last round, except that in the wrestie Cuildress succeeded in throwing Chariey heavily. KOUND 5.—More scicuce, when they went to work, Charley getting ia some heavy biows on Childress’ ribs and he countering severely on Charley's bread- basket, They ciluched again and Dougherty was thrown. KouND 6,--Tho men appeared promptly to time, Dougterty e mtiy anxious to punish if he could get 4 chance, but Childress sparred cautiously and avoided fignt. They clinched again, Cluldress being thrown tis time, Cries of ‘oul’ by Dougherty’s friends, but it was not allowed, Round 7.—Charley danced round Childress laugh- ing at him and making feints, but Childress was sly and cautious.
