Samuels were placed on trial charged with grand larceny, under some: what pecuhar circumstanes. It appeared that ‘Tuomas Shields, who, 1 answer to Mr. ‘Tweed, a.d he was ‘a pubilc oficial,” was the possessor of & diamond ring of the first water, (It would be an unpardonable insult to tntimate that any “public oiticial’’ of Manhattan Island would seck to adora his delicate fagera with auything but diamonds of the first * wather.”’) The “public oficial,” in order to turther tne ends of justice, snarened a few priceless’ moments from the discharge of bis onerous, responsible and important duties, and the court and jury learned from his own lips that he had possessed a ring with a diamond “into it,” and that he paid $125 for the stone alone, which piece of testimony refle great light upon the transac- tion; for if this fact had not been brought out th Jury might bave deen led to infer that the “pubiic ‘onticial”’ was presented with the ring by his iellow citizens “as a token Of their appreciation of lis manly qualities and a9 a slight tesiimontal of their gratitude for the faithful, able and efficient manner in which he discharged 13 oifictal duties,” Tne testimony developed the fact that one of the fair daughters of Erin's isle was employed by the public official to attend to the domestic affairs of hie private domicile, and that Kathleen was attracted not 80 much by the brilliant personal qualities of the public official as by the dazzling spiendor of his costly gem, and fondly called 16 hers. As soon aa Mr. Shieldg discovered that the gew ol Lhe ocean and ita fair admirer had departed together he learned that she haa deposited it at the pawnbroking estab- lishment of the defendants in Catuarine sireet, and dis; of the ticket toa Jady named Mra. Doody, who redeemed the ring at the office and returned it to Mr. Shiclds, who immediately discovered that “paste” had been substituted for the diamond, which had been abstracted from it. This being the state of facts, the Recorder saw at once that the accused could uot be held for larceny, other partics having bad equal chance to abstract the stone from its sevting, and directed the jury to render a@ verdict of not guilty. VALUABLE JEWELRY STOLEN BY A WAITING MAID, Pauime Mercier pleaded guilty to grand larceny. ‘The maictment charged her with stealing diamond Tings and jewelry, valued at $1,700, from Mrs. E, Paraf, at the Everett House, by whom she was em- ployed as a waiting maid. A portion of tue property was found in a bonnet inthe basement of a house on Broadway, where the prisoner was arrested. The complainant ‘interceded with the Recorder, and re- quesied him to be lenient in his sentence. ‘the prisoner was remanded till Friday. ‘The following 1s the calendar for to-day:—The Peo- le vs. David Keed, burgiury; Same vs. James Has- th, Edward Lennox, Hugh Campbell, John Man- gan, James Barnes, Wiliam O’Brien, Laurence Donald, Adeline Hoffman, Peter Reynolda, George Sipp, felomious assault and oattery; Same ve.
