The matter was Dronght to the official notice of Coroner Flynn, for whe purpose of having an investigation. During the morning a very respectable appearing lady of ad- vanced years, attired in biack, called at the Coro- ner’s office and announced herself as Mrs. Luyster, of Bushwick avenue, Brooklyn, anda mother-in-law ef the murderer and suicide, George Bauman, THE VICTIMS AND WHO THEY WERE. Bauman was a native of Germany, about thirty- ‘two years of age, and had been principal in the German ‘furner Seminary, located in Meserole Street, East Brooklyn, He was a manu of finished education, polished manners, and wll within the last few months considered to be a high-toned gen- eman. Nearly three years ago Bauman married Miss Addie Luyster, daughter of ex-Aiderman Luy- ster, of the Eighteenth ward of Brovklyn, a peauti- fai and accomplished lady, now only twenty-two years of age. She subsequently became assistant Veacher in her busband’s school, with Miss Mc- Namara, elias Mrs, Almejo, the murdered woman, Who Was about twenty-six years o! age. Mra.

Haskin and W. J. Herring. ‘The township of West Farms, Westchester county, has a genuine sensation, a buzzing, bubbling, boll- ing, fighting senaacion, one productive of more argu- ment and vituperation, eloquence and entreaty, in- sult and epithet than any similar event that has dis- turbed its primitive, rural bounderies, to a great de- xree, since its history. It has all been caused by the action of certam taxpayers in the town, who, deeming that the job to open, extend and work certain highways known as Madi- son and Berrian avenues in thelr midst, was @ pare- faced robbery, the former calling for an assessment of $37,400 and the latter the sum of $28,050, to be paid by general taxation obtained, through one of their number (Patrick H. Hanlon) an imjunction from Judge ‘Tappan, at White Piains, on the 27th ult, restraining the Board of Super- visors from continuing the work, and ordering them to ehow cause why they should not be eter- nally enjomed from ranning on these avenues. This was the first step taken by the taxpayers, and the second was the necessary steps to call a public meet- ing of such tw uphold thetr action, This meeting, with many attending incidents, was held last night, in accordance with the following call:— ‘TAXPAYERS OF WEST PARMS ATTEND.—The iaxpayers of the town of West Farms opposed to the unjust tax levy of this ear are requested to atteud a mecting to be held at Itiner's Haul, tp Tremont, on Monday evening, danuary 8, 1870, at half- past lock, to review the taxes for 1#69 and to adopt, mensures of reforin, The meetiny will be under the exclu- ntrol of the undersigned oficers, By order. JOHN B. HASKIN, Chairman, At the time appointed the hall was crowdea— jammed with a far more mixed audience than ever assembled there before, Like bees or locusts or ants, they swarmed into every nook and corner, some in red shirts and muddy faces, some with elnbs and riding whips In their hands—evidently an giement that meant mischiet to the more gen- wel portion of the throng, which was soon de- veloped, as expected; for be it known the interested parties in the opening of the avenue id not relish the retinquishment of their pet profit- able schemes witnout a fight. Behind @ piano in one end of the room Mr. Haskin stationed himself, and after Mr. Keyser had read the call and a squad sive o of metropolitan policemen surrounded the rostrum the meeting was formally opened, Of all the gatherings, fuil of commotion, full of turbulent spirits, of noisy, Wicked elements, even exceeding the daring, riotous and profane crowds that gather avout the prize ring, or may be seen in a@ratpit, this exceeded them all. Amid compara- lave quiet, for the signal ol the opposition had not as yet been given, Haskin, in substance, proceeded to say:—‘That as American citizens, mviting tree speech, berty of the press, their right of region and the right to redress grievances, they had assembled to oppose the unjust tax- ation that had been foisted upon them m the mat- ter of the opening of Madison and Berrian avenues; those present that were in favor of the measure and opposed to the principles advocated might haten, but had not the right to take any part init: the; might go elsewhere, but could not m that pall disvar'l their deliberations, He had recetved for his action in the opposition of this scheme many anonymous letters, some of which bade him beware of the fate of Abraham Lincoln, as if he thus continued it his death would be as untimely. He did not care for such threats more than the signing of the idle winds, ‘the rave of taxation m the benighted, dark town of West Yarms was more than that in any town in the Union. It should not be—must not hereatier be so. ‘The humbie occupant of the iowly Wut, equaily wit the wealthy dweller in the castic, could be heard in such matters in thisland and be protected.

Are the cluzens of this town to be browbeaten by you and your satellies and menaced by the presence of policemen brought here for the purpose of intimi~ dating honorabie taxpayers?

A. A cabie despatch from London brings us the intel- Higence of the death of Thomas Creswiek on the 1st inst., and bis burial in Kensal Green, He was born at ShefMeld in 1811, and studied art first at Birming- ham, and subsequently at London, at which latter place he settled and ever after resided. 1p 1828 Mr, Creswick first appeared as an exhibitor at the Royal Academy. His pictures, which embraced views in North Wales, in Derbyshire and on the Wye, at- tracted immediate attention for the high artistic skill displayed in their execution. They gave him a@ reputation wt once, which in after years he greatly improved upon. In 1842 he was ¢lectea an Associate of the Royal Academy and in 1851 became a Royal Academician, Among his most noted works are “Home by the Sands,” “A London Road a Century Ago,” “The Weald of Kent,” and others, He aiso painted an extensive series of pictures for the Messrs, Grundy, of Manchester, the subjects being chosen from the scenery of North Wales. They were executed as companions to the series of “Lake scenery,” painted by Pyne for the same parties, Although not ranked as the greatest of living British artists Mr. Creswick held a very conspicuous position in the world of art. He was devoted to bis beautiiul profession and his works all display that carefui finish which inva- riably accompanies close atiention and application. His specialty was scenery, and it 1s as a scenic arust that he will be longest and vest known by postertiy. Bevjamin F.

Anthony's projected Working Women’s Associa- tion. Although aiways in delicate health she en- joyed alarge and increasing medical practice. Quite lately che appeared prominently vefore the public in causing the arrest of 2 Southerner who had re- quested her to eifect an aboritoa on a young girt with whom he held iiicit relations.

The lecturer then reviewed the symptoms of the disease, among which he especially instanced loss Qi power, in the lower organs, with, iis of starting when asteep, awaking the unhappy pi and and Continuing at intervals, utterly pre- cluding the “ope of a satisfactory rest. Some symp- toms were transient and others of permanent orgrn, One of Ure permavent syimptoms was a marked tail in the genital organs and an uncontrollable stag- gering gait. The lecturer then reviewed the history of the malady and the various opinions of learned savans apd pathologists with regard to its treat ment, Some cures had been reported, but they were rare. The lecturer exhibited several excellent diagrams indicative of the various symptoms of tic malady, The members of the club were tnen in- vited to discuss the subject, but no one accepted tie invitation, The lécturer was then invited to speak as to the eatment of the disease, after which the members were again invited to discuss the question with the same result. A vote of thanks was ac- corded the lecturer for nis paper, and 1t°was ac- cepted by ike Koctety. A petition to be presented to Congress praying that proper rank and privileges be accorded the sur- geons in the navy, as it tended to serve the best in- terests of the navy and the country, was circulated and submitted to the meeting, and was extensively signed, and the'meeting then adjourned, LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. A Fiyina Lear.—At four o'clock yesterday after- noon officer Morgan, of the Twentieth precinct, was called upou by Mrs. Martha Ritchie, of 424 Seventh avenue, to arrest her husband for beating her. While the officer was attempting to arrest the affec- Uonate husband he seized his wife in his arms, and, running to the fire escape on the second floor, jumped with her to the pavement below, a distance ‘of twenty-two feet, severely injuring the woman, ‘who was attended by aphysician. Ritchie made his escape unhurt, but was subsequently arrested by omicer Osborne, of the same precinct, and will be arraigned before Justice Ledwith, at Jeiferson Mar- ket, this morning, FATAL ACCIDENT.—At three o'clock yesterday afternoon Michael McCready, aged thirty-five years, in the employ of John Leonard, at the corner of Bank and West strects, went Into the stable of his on te Tor the purpose of hitching up the horses, and was found about two hours afterwards jammed against the stable door, by one of his fellow work- men, dead, with the bi running from his nose, and 1s supposed to have been kicked by a horse. His body was removed to his residence, in the rear of 158 West Twenty-seventh street, and the Coroner notified. The above aro the facts as far as they could be gleaned from the unintelligivie telegrapnic despatch of a sergeant of the Twenty-ninth precinct, at Police Headquarters last night. A TRUE FISH Stort.—The Gloucester (Mass.) Teegraph Says that the following, although fishy, 13 true:—The captain of a coaster, who trades between Cape Anu and New York, on a recent voyage spread some codfish on deck to dry and then went below to give some directions to the men who were at work there, The veswel was lying at one of the piers in New York at the time. When he came on deck he saW &@ Wan just leaving with alarge codfish in each hand, and @ policeman looking on. Tne cay appealed to the policeman, who asked he. desired to have the thief arrested, to which the captain emphatically responded tnat te did, and without delay. “My friend,” said the policeman, “you know not what you ask. I am ‘ne only American connected with the Police in this vicinity, and if I were to arrest that jaan probably both you and I would be half mur- dered and the thief rescued before we nad pro- ceeded @ hundred yards. ‘hat fellow is a great man ‘at the polls, a pet with the jndges and lawyers, and though known to be'a notorious thief has never been convicted, although frequently arrested by mistake with the booty in his possession, Those who had him arrested always caine to grief, and so would you and I. Therefore { advise you to let him goand think yourself fortunate in getting off 80 easily.” The policeman gata much more to the sing effect, which induced the captala to let the go. SHIPPING NEWS.
