His Honer was atthe time about to resume the trial of the case of Hoyt and Others vs. Baker and Others, and declined to do 80, but at the same time he suggested that Percy should take his case over to Justice Pratt, who was holding Special Term on the other side of the hall. Percy grew very irate and demanded that Judge Gilbert should do as he had requested him, remarking, also, that nis Case Was as good as any one’s. Judge Gilbert quietly reminded the indignant Percy that unless he kept quiet he would be committed for contempt. Percy did not heed the warning, where- upon the Court directed an officer to remove him. ‘The lawyer had a dispute with the officer also, and finally retired; and Judge Gilbert then referred the taking of the testimony in his (Percy's) case to Mr. Cullen.

Richardson and Boynton, on the other hand, claim that the process was an utter failure, and that Playle was either an arrant knave or a crackbrained fool.

DRY GOODS MARKET, In all departments of dry goods there 1s an Increas- ing activity as the winter wanes and sprirg, with its various activities, araws near. Everywhere, from the magnificent Broadway house to the country store, where boots and beeswax, and lace and molasses, shoe strings and ploughs are indiscriminately sold, there are premonitery ripples indicating the waves of trade that the necessities of the country will by and by arouse. Whether there are warsor capitulations people buy and sell and wear costly garments, and trade knows but little difference in the main. In domestic goods the trade has been active for the season during the past week. The Western trade is very mucn restricted on account of the nigh rates of transportatiuvn, Buyers are looking through the market, but hesitate to give large orders in hopes that freight will be reduced. The scarcity of water continues, and there is some anxiety felt as to the effect that the drouth will have upon the market. On account of the current prices of cotton Southern merchants are cautious In buy- ing and pay slowly. There 18 no pressure felt, as yet, from scarcity of stock, but when the spring trade opens briskly the demand insome departments will 0 likely to exceed the supply. In unbleached sheetings and shirtings the demand is fair, Standard goods sbow Do important changes, but prices have an upward tendency, Bleached sheetings and shirtings are active and prices firm. The stock on hand is smaller than usual, and there is reason to expect an advance. Prints are moderately active and prices Orm, The lewer grades of cotton Gannel are in greater demand and the best makes are fatr, There is no change in prices. Woollens are active for the season, and the trade promises to open briskly in a short time. Clothiers and jobbers are making large purchases, antici- ating an advance on account of the lack of water. Prices are unchanged at present, ‘The new styles of cassimeres in fancy light weights are moderately active. In carpets the best Brussels and ingrains are unchange The season is 100 early for activity in this department, The aemaud for uphoistery is greater than at the eerie renee: on last year. Prices are firm, but tnere is noad- ice. Siiks have been dull during the past week. The spring stocks are not generally opened, So far prices are frm. ‘The élosing of the war will tend to advance this class of goods. The trade has not commenced for the season, the fliling of orders for assorting stocks bemg the prin- cipal bustiess. Some buyers are ordering largely, however, in antictpation of au advance. Black silks are ruling from $1 25 to $3, Colored from $1 75 to $8 50, Shawls are opening fairly, the new styles being desirabie for beauty and fuish, Large orders are sent abroad by dealers. There 1s a desirable Jine of Cashineres mn the market, and prices are rul- ing lower than for some years. The winter stock of all kinds of shawls has been well oxhausted, and a brisk demana is anticipated the coming season. In ribbons there is @ fair demand for biack gros | wraun taffeta and fanay saga rib00us, THE TAYLOR WILL CASE. Further Testimony in Favor of the Proponents. Taylor's Housekeeper on ‘he Stand—Her Letter to Kate—What Geucral Spinola Knows About the Will—He is Inter- ested in the Case. Contrary to his usual custem Surrogate Hutchings held court yesterday (Saturday) for the purpose of hastening the end of the Taylor will case, which has for so long @ period engaged his attention, The court was opened at ten o’clock, when the case was called. As on the previous day, there was a large crowd in attendance, and great interest was mani- fested in the proceedings. Tue testimony of the housekeeper of Mra, Taylor, Mrs. Donnelly, and Gen- eral Spinola, the most important yet offered tn proof of the genuineness of the will, was listened to with close attention. So much irrelevant testimony was offered that the Surrogate remarked that if all the questions asked were put down the printer’s bul would consume the estate. As it is, the testimony already taken would fill many volumes. Mr. Piper was recalled, and was questioned fur- ther by Mr, Ciinton, In answer to a uumber of itn- terrogatories he said that he visited Mr. Taylor's office occasionally, and was acquainted with George Duryea. TESTIMONY OF MR. L. SHARDLOW, Mr. L. Shardiow, being sworn, testifled:—I knew the deceased, James B. Taylor, during his lifetime, probably about thirty-five years; our early acquaint. ance was slight and grew out of political association; but during the latter years of his life I was very in- timate with him; I used to see him almost daily; I saw him write frequently, and aim, I believe, pretty well acquainted with his signature. (The will was here shown.) I think this is Mr. Taylor’s signature; Ihave no doubt about it; the last conversation I had with Mr. Taylor was tn his private office, and the purport of it was that Kate was to have $5,000, that the d—d Howlands should not benefit by his death; Kate was theu in Europe, and I heard him say thac Mr. Howland, Sen., abused Mrs. Taylor very much; I heard him say nothing of his intentions re- garding George Duryea since the Ist of July; I fre- quently heard deceased speak of George Duryea as one in whom he could place the greatest confidence. Cross-examined by Mr. Olinton—The writing in the boay of this will 1s not im Mr. Taylor's hanawrit- ing in, my impression; I have received letters and checks from Mr. Taylor, but I could not specify the dates or amounts; I could not point to any period within the last five years when 1 received a commu. nication from him, but I have no doubt I have nud them frequently; I have SEEN MANY OF HIS SIGNATCRES on the back of checks on the Shoe and Leather Bank within the past two years; during the last three or four years [ had nothing to take me to Mr. ‘Taylor's excepta social; lam not very intimate with Mr. Duryea, and had no business relations with him ex- cept in relation to a lease of some smait property given him by Mr. Taylor.

The fight originated in a diMculty between Anzar and the Hernandez brothers, at the San Jose Pleasure Garden, last 4th of July, in which blood would have been spilled if the friends of the parties had not tn- terfered. It appears that Anzar had not forgotten the quarrel, but was waiting lis opportunity for re- enge. On Monday night, it is said, he followed Mariano from place to place, with the avowed pur- pose of cle A him, and that the police interiered. and took his pisiols away, fearing that he might do some mischief, Last evening the parties met on the corner by Spring’s store, and in the altercation that ensued between Mariano and Auzar, the iatter drew his knife. Augustin ran in between the parties to separate them, when Anzar struck several blows at him, cutting his Oe a but not drawing blood, Mariano, seeing bis brother in danger, drew bis pistol and fired ene shot at Anzar, the ball takin, effeot in his left side. Soon ashe was shot he rused into Spring’s storo, crying that he was shot and killed, dropping his knife en the floor. Dr. Backesto was immediately called, aid Anzar was removed to his reoms at the San Jose Hotel. The physicians think the wound ts not fatal, and tnat with good care the Renee may recover. The ball entered at the left side, just below the last rib, and a little below the nipple. and came e@ut on the opposite side. He presents no symptoms of having been wounded in the stomach, as he undoubtedly would if the ball had passed directly through nis body. Tne Hernandez brothers were promptly ar- rested, and released en bail to appear at two o'clock on Thursday afternoon to answer a charge of an attempt to commit murder. eS SS ESS EN AEM IED MARRIAGES AND DEATHS.
